Stricter rules for booze
Student housing to toughen policy
By ERIC SORRENTINO

KANSAN STAFF WRITER
If an official from the Department on Student Housing sees alcohol in a room in the residence halls next semester, everyone will be subject to disciplinary action.
Stricter disciplinary action will be one of the changes to student housing's alcohol policy, said Ken Stoner, student housing director. He said the changes were not because of any problems this semester but were to better clarify the current policy.
The punishment will depend on the situation and could range from a meeting with housing officials to getting kicked out of the residence hall.
"If alcohol is in the room and there's a question about ownership, we're going to visit with
The new policy is an accountability issue, said Nick Tevebaugh, Overland Park freshman and Hashinger Hall resident.
everyone in the room," Stoner said.
"I think if they're going to be in the room and willing to put themselves in that situation, they should be willing to hold themselves accountable," Tevebaugh said. "They know there's no drinking in the dorms. I'll admit it would suck though."
Tevebaugh said it was a common and moderately easy practice for students to sneak alcohol into the residence halls, where students walked into the hall with alcohol in a bag.
A second change to the policy involved prohibiting alcohol paraphernalia, more specifically

Some of the stones bordering Danforth Chapel's north window are cracking, but not for long. The chapel is scheduled to go through some renovations, including re-roofing the chapel and making the bathroom handicap accessible. Renovations could start April 2006 and are expected to total $212,800.
Danforth Chapel to receive face-lift

University officials have plans to renovate Danforth Chapel, but not everyone involved in the plans knows about changes.
Becky Dunavin, who schedules all events at the chapel, was unaware of the renovations that could begin as early as next April.
Dunavin said Danforth was booked nearly every weekend until next fall with weddings and other events, which worried her.
"It's definitely going to affect booking of the chapel," Dunavin said. "I think at some point — unless they work on weekdays — I don't know how they'll get around it."
She said it was difficult to work with the weddings while
dealing with the nearby construction on Jayhawk Boulevard and 14th Street.
Dunavin said that although Danforth needed the renovations, construction on the building would only make the situation worse, especially if she remained unaware of the plans.
The Kansas University Endowment Association plans to raise $250,000 to pay for the estimated costs plus inflation that will be acquired by the beginning of construction, said John Scarffe, endowment director.
The chapel's renovations will cost $212,800, according to 2003 estimates.
Scarffe said he hoped to have the funds raised and construction under way by April 2006, which would be the sixtieth anniversary of the chapel.

Always ready: A cop's life

KANSSAN STAFF WRITER
Something wasn't quite right.
After all, that's what Officer Micah Stegall is trained to look for — things a normal person wouldn't see.
So when he saw the white car jump out about 50 feet in front of him, he quickly punched down the gas pedal and easily caught up to the car in front of him.
At first, it seems like no big deal. The car's license plate isn't properly illuminated, so Officer Stegall flips a switch and bathes the darkness in an explosion of red and blue.
The driver quickly pulls over.
Stegall gets out, flashlight in hand, and walks over to the car. It's nothing more than a routine traffic stop.
Even though it's a typical night in Lawrence, Stegall is always ready for the unexpected.
6:03 p.m.
This Friday, Stegall, a sevenyear veteran, is working the evening shift, from 3 to 11 p.m.
He's the "260" unit tonight, which means he can go anywhere in the city and respond to any call.
But he likes to stay near downtown and East Lawrence, where most of the action is, he savs.
His shift so far has been slow, but things on the weekend don't usually pick up until late in the night. Stegall saves.
"Around 12 or one in the morning, the alcohol starts to take effect," he says. "Then things start to happen."
Still, Stegall appears alert, almost expecting anything to happen at any second, no matter how serious or trivial that might be.
6:19 n.m.
Ding!
The car's computer lets out a sharp bell-like sound. Dispatch has received a call and sent it to Stegall.
It's an alarm in a bank at Iowa and 23rd Streets.
"It's probably a false alarm." Stegall savs coolly.
have been tripped on accident.
When he arrives, other officers tell Stegall the alarm appears to
Serious things, such as a bank robbery or murder, don't happen in Lawrence very often, Stegall says. But when, or if, they ever do, Stegall and all other officers are trained to respond in a heartbeat.
Relying on the other officers in serious situations is a necessity.
"When things do happen, you have to rely on the people you work with," he says.
After leaving the bank, Stegall heads back toward East Lawrence, waiting for another call to come in.
Ninety-seven percent of the time, Stegall's shift is just like this -waiting for something to happen.
"The other three percent are situations where most people are running away and we're going in," he says.
Skepticism about any situation, especially that three percent, is also something that officers are trained to have.
"When I first started, my training officer told me never to trust anyone in that kind of situation," he says. "Because they're probably lying to you."
7:45 p.m.
After patrolling East Lawrence, Stegall heads across the river through some of the hot spots, looking for signs of crime.
As he drives through neighborhoods, people standing on the street peer into his car, often times greeting him with a wave or a smile, especially kids.
"Everyone likes to look at us and see what we're doing," he savs.
Respect for the people he serves is central to Stegall's role as an officer. Often, he makes friendly conversation with people, even if they're caught breaking the law.
"If you show respect, you get respect," he says.
10:35 p.m.
Something catches his eve.
He backs up behind a parked car and flashes his lights.
It's well into the night now and Stegall is driving down Massachusetts Street, alert and on the lookout now that people are starting to come outside.
It's nothing too major, just a

Democratic Congressman Dennis Moore is concerned about Social Security. He thinks students should be, too.
But at his Social Security seminar yesterday at the Robert J. Dole Institute of Politics, Moore spoke to a room brimming with baby boomers. A lone college student stood at the back of the room near the doors as Moore addressed his audience.

Conclave fails to elect pope
BY BRIAN MURPHY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
VATICAN CITY — Black smoke streamed from the Sistine Chapel's chimney yesterday to signal that cardinals failed to select a new pope in their first round of voting, held just hours after they began their historic task: finding a leader capable of building on John Paul II's spiritual energy while keeping modern rifts from tearing deeper into the church.
"It seems white. ... No, no, it's black!" reported Vatican Radio as the first pale wisps slipped out from the narrow pipe and then quickly darkened.
As millions around the world watched on television, at least 40,000 people waited in St. Peter's Square with all eyes on the chimney, where smoke from the burned ballots would give the first word of the cloacate; white meaning a new pontiff, black showing that the secret gathering will continue today.
PATRICE
In the last moments of twilight, the pilgrims began to point and gasp. "What is it? White? Black?" hundreds cried out. In a few seconds — at about 8:05 p.m. — it was clear the 115 cardinals from six continents could not find the two-thirds majority needed to elect the new leader for the world's 1.1 billion Roman Catholics. Only one vote was held yesterday.
Pew expected a quick decision. The cardinals have a staggering range of issues to juggle. In the West, they must deal with the fallout from priest sexabuse scandals and a chronic shortage of priests and nuns. Elsewhere, the church is facing calls for sharper activism against poverty and an easing of its ban on condoms to help combat AIDS.
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
In this photo released by the Vatican paper L'Osservatore Romano, Master of Liturgical Celebrations Archbishop Piero Marini closes the door of the Sistine Chapel at the Vatican yesterday after proclaiming the "extra omnes," which is the Latin order for all those not taking part in the conclave to leave the chapel. Starting yesterday, 115 Cardinals from all around the world were sequestered inside the Sistine Chapel to elect the new head of the Roman Catholic Church.
The next pontifit also must maintain the global ministry of John Paul, who took 104 international trips in his 26-year papacy and is already being hailed as a saint by many faithful.
"Keep praying for the new pope," said 82-year-old Cardinal Luis Aponte Martinez of Puerto Rico, who was too old to join the conclave, open to cardinals only under age 80.
It was the first time in more than a generation that crowds stared at the chimney for the famous smoke and word of a new pope. In that time, the church has been pulled in two directions: a spiritual renaissance under John Paul but battered by scandals and a flock pressing for less rigid teachings.
But in chilly St. Peter's Square, thoughts were only on who would next appear under the crimson drapes
at the basilica's central window as the 265th nontiff.
"We thought it was white, then it went black. I had a feeling of exhilaration followed by disappointment," said Harold Reeves, a 55-year-old theology student from Washington.
Added 20-year-old Italian student Silvia Mariano: "You can't describe the feeling. When the smoke came out, it looked white, and I got chills."
Even before the conclave began, one of the possible candidates German Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger tried to set a tone of urgency.
His homily in a special memorial Mass for the pope warned that the church must take a strict line about moral drift and "a dictatorship of relativism" that fights the idea of absolute truths.
"Having a clear faith, based on the creed of the church, is often labeled today as a fundamentalism," said Ratzinger, 78, who has been the Vatican's chief overseer of doctrine since 1981. "Whereas relativism, which is letting oneself be tossed and 'swept along by every wind of teaching,' looks like the only attitude acceptable to today's standards."

His homily in a special memorial Mass for the pope warned that the church must take a strict line about moral drift and "a dictatorship of relativism" that fights the idea of absolute truths.
"Having a clear faith, based on the creed of the church, is often labeled today as a fundamentalism," said Ratzinger, 78, who has been the Vatican's chief overseer of doctrine since 1981. "Whereas relativism, which is letting oneself be tossed and 'swept along by every wind of teaching,' looks like the only attitude acceptable to today's standards."

ENVIRONMENT
Campus, Lawrence put lid on trash

Today on the Stauffer-Flint Hall lawn, KU students will learn just how wasteful they really are.
Allison Cavanaugh (left), Prairie Village junior, and Aude Negrete, Lenexa freshman, prepare earth-designed balloons yesterday for the 35th Earth Day this Friday. Cavanaugh and Negrete handed out candy and kites to people who visited the table in front of Watson Library yesterday afternoon. "Taking time to educate students and provide them with information about the world is the first step to making a better environment," said Negrete, community service and environmental concerns director for AURH, the organization that sponsored the table.
A collaboration of KU environmental groups will hold the Wescoe Hall Trash Audit from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. They will collect all the items from trash cans on the fourth floor of Wescoe Hall to demonstrate what could have been recycled.
"There are plenty of opportunities to recycle, but students think it is more convenient to throw stuff away in the nearest trash can when, really, it is just as easy to take your plastic water bottle to the next recycling bin," said Kristan Seibel, chairwoman for the Environmental Advisory Board.
Jeff Severin, manager of the KU Environmental Stewardship Program, said last year's audit revealed that newspapers made up 46 percent of the trash weight. Seibel predicted that this year's percentage would be lower because of an increase in recycling bins in campus buildings. However, she urged students to make a habit out of using the bins.
The trash audit is just one of the campus events to celebrate this Friday's Earth Day. Other events include an informational fair tomorrow where KU environmental groups will share ways to reduce energy consumption while providing snow cones and popcorn, and a recyclables drop-off outside the Student Recreation Fitness Center from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Friday.
The city of Lawrence will also be environmentally conscious this weekend, celebrating its fifth annual

Earth Day downtown. The event has grown from year to year, said Mollie Mangerich, operations supervisor of the Lawrence Waste Reduction and Recycling division. This year's theme, "Be a Vehicle for Change," promotes using alternative modes of transportation to reduce air pollution.
"The rising price of fuel makes it a great time to get people out of vehicles," Mangerich said.
Energy consumption is also a concern for Karl Brooks, assistant professor of environmental studies and history. He said he would like to see an improvement in the use of the mass transit system. He encouraged students to use the bus system, rather than their own vehicles, to get to campus.
Brooks said he had faith that KU students desired to help the environment.
"I believe KU students have the heart, but let the wallets follow," he said.
The first American Earth Day celebration in 1970 was centered around students trying to gain the attention of politicians and financial supporters.
Under the guidance of
former U.S. Senator Gaylord Nelson, thousands of college students organized a nationwide grassroots protest to make environmental issues part of the government's priorities.
Nelson infused the student anti-Vietnam war energy into the environmental cause to force it on the political agenda. Nelson filled his staff with students and appointed Denis Hayes, a Stanford graduate, as coordinator of activities.
Thousands of schools, along with 20 million demonstrators and local communities, came together to protest and rally for political support. In 1971, Nelson announced an "Earth Week" for the third week of April. Soon after, the Environmental Protection Agency was established, demonstrating the impact of this collaborative effort.

"This is the first time we've done a full display of the school's history." Jaekel said.
Harvey Fineberg, president of the Institute of Medicine, will speak at 9:30 a.m. Friday in the School of Nursing Auditorium for the occasion
He will discuss American health care systems for the 21st century, Jeekel said.

Alumnus to donate $2 million to establish professorship
University of Kansas alumnus Sir Robert Worcester is donating $2 million to the political science department.
The money is expected to establish a distinguished professorship in political science.
"We will begin a search process in the fall," Sharp said. "Sometimes searches will take years."
It isn't known who will be the distinguished professor, Elaine Sharp, political science chairwoman, said.
This donation will also fund professional travel, graduate student researchers, public lectures and equipment for the faculty member given the distinguished professorship.
Worcester graduated from the University with a business degree in 1955 and moved to Great Britain in 1969.
He is a governor of the London School of Economics and Political Science.

HOMELAND SECURITY
Explosives cache rattles KS town
Nichols is serving a life sentence for his role in the 1995 bombing of the federal building in Oklahoma City. Timothy McVeigh, convicted of federal conspiracy and murder charges, was executed in 2001.
She sold the two-bedroom pale blue frame house to Nichols, who she remembers as "out in left field and a little bizarre."
Larry Byers, publisher of The Hertington Times, a weekly newspaper
BY CARL MANNING
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
HERINGTON — Ten years after this small town was thrust into an unwanted spotlight because Terry Nichols briefly lived here, life had returned to normal. The six weeks the Oklahoma City bombing conspirator spent here was a fading memory.
Last month, however, memories were revived when FBI agents found blasting caps and other explosive materials buried in a crawl space beneath the living room floor of the home where Nichols lived at the time of the bombing, which killed 168 people. The FBI believes Nichols hid the items, but it is still analyzing them for fingerprints and other clues.
"We really put it behind us, until the FBI showed up again. It's like we can't get out of the attention," real estate agent Georgia Rucker said Monday on the eve of the 10th anniversary of the bombing of the federal building.
in this town of 2,600 about 140 miles southwest of Kansas City, said interest in Nichols died down after his 1997 federal conviction, and talk around town returned to such topics as the weather, cattle prices and commodities.
Even when the FBI returned March 31 to Herington, the agents numbered fewer than a decade ago and a long line of reporter didn't follow.
Those living near the house were evacuated for about 24 hours until the search was completed.
"I was very upset. I was hoping it was all over with," said Etta Mae Hartke, who lived next door to Nichols.
Rucker now owns the house and has been trying to sell it since last fall. She said she lost a few potential buyers when she told them who once lived there.
She said people used to bring up the bombing when they found out she was from Herington. But that's changed.
"Some remember, but not all. It's not like it use to be." Rucker said. "It's like they remember the name, but not why they remember the name."
Margie Schlesener runs the soda fountain at the corner drug store where a cup of coffee still sells for 27 cents. People gather there daily to swap stories and visit.
"We've got better things to talk about; the weather, farm prices, sick friends and well friends. That's more important," Schlesener said, adding that Nichols was considered an outsider.

The Endowment Association has raised $1,000 from private donors that is going toward the renovations of the Chapel.
Scarffie said Endowment Association officials were in the beginning stages of receiving donations. They would make a bigger push for donations in the next months.
Renovations will include several projects on the chapel's exterior including replacing the cracking stones around the chapel's north window and a complete re-roofing, said Don Whipple, consultant services manager for Design and Construction Management.
Plans also call for an expansion on the backside of the chapel, which will replace the chapel's small bathroom with a handicap-accessible bathroom, he said.
The 2005 senior class pledged $6,000 for landscaping around the Chapel as its senior gift. It has currently donated $5,000.
The current bathroom was the smallest one on campus, he said.
Any additional money donated beyond the $6,000 pledge will extend the landscaping project.
The nondemoninational chapel, named after William Danforn, was dedicated in 1946.
The chapel is perfect for small weddings and graduations. Dunavin said.
Religious organizations and fraternities and sororities often use the chapel for events, she said.

beer bongs, in housing facilities.
Stoner said beer bongs were not a problem in residence halls but there was not a policy that clearly outlawed paraphernula before the change.
Kayla Bennett, Lawrence sophomore and Hashinger resident, said she understood the policy changes but said it would not change alcohol consumption in the residence halls.
Bennett said many residents drank before they went out because they were not old enough to drink at bars and clubs.
"It happens every weekend," she said. "I see it more than one time a weekend in many different rooms."
It has been two to three years since student housing made a change to its alcohol policy. Stoner said. The last change permitted empty alcohol containers for decorative purposes in the residence halls with the consent of the complex director.
"We realize everyone doesn't read the handbook when it comes out," Stoner said. "If we see it though, we'll ask about it."

an important part of their future, Moore said. He said many students did not have confidence in the future of Social Security benefits.
But Social Security ensures a stable future for young people, said John Garlinger, Social Security Administration Regional Communications Director.
Garlinger said one of every three Social Security beneficiaries were not retirees. Social Security also benefits disabled people and children without parents, he said.
Changing demographics will soon stress social security, Garlinger said. People are living longer, having fewer children, and the baby boomer generation will start retiring soon, he said.

This means that the cost of Social Security will increasingly fall on a younger, smaller population of Americans.
Moore
Since Congress passed legislation that allowed the government to spend parts of the Social Security Trust Fund,
Moore said he was concerned there might not be enough money in the future to pay out Social Security benefits.
To remedy this situation, Moore introduced a bill to Congress in February called the Social Security Truth in Budgeting Act of 2005. This bill would remove Social Security funds from the federal budget and ensure that Social Security funds were spent only for their intended purpose and not for new spending or new tax cuts.
Moore said his bill would not completely correct problems with Social Security, but it was a step in the right direction.
While Moore voiced his concerns and ideas, he said the focus of his seminar was to encourage discussion and debate, not to push his own views.
That is why Moore was discouraged that there weren't more young people at the seminar.
"It's typical of young people to focus on the now and never think of being old and needing Social Security." Moore said. "But it should be there for them. We need to make sure that Social Security is not a failure for future generations."

Parking department hits students where it hurts
If the parking department was hoping to improve its image, provost David Shulenburger didn't do himself any favors last week by raising the cost to park on campus. The prices of all parking permits were increased, but it was students who got the worst of the increase.
The price of yellow permits went up 64 percent, compared to a mere 16 percent increase for reserved lots. Students are not allowed to purchase reserved lot passes
The most alarming part of the increase is that it flies in the face of what the parking commission said following a meeting in March.
Tom Mulinazzi, head of the parking department was quoted in a University Daily Kansan story on March 14, saying that "It should be more money if you park close, and less if you park away." Though a reserved lot permit will cost $700 next semester, compared to $140 for a Yellow permit the percentage
increase directly contradicts Mulinazzi's statement.
Students will accept the unprecedented spike in prices if the parking department does something to improve the current parking situation.
The goal of the increases is, after all, to improve parking on campus. The parking department said that the funds secured by the increase would be used to improve the condition of current lots and to begin work
on a new Park and Ride lot.
David Shulenburger isn't making himself any friends these days with another boost in parking permit rates that aims directly for students' pocketbooks. The sad part is that the parking department doesn't seem to be looking at other ways of avoiding this cost increase.
Students who have been late to class because they were hunting for an open spot will agree that the parking department needs to make changes. But with such a drastic increase in prices, any agreement is being drowned out with moans of complaint.
The only way students' complaints are going to die down is if substantial changes
are seen on campus. A few spots here and there aren't going to subside the unrest. Donna Hultine, director of parking, said the first project in line would add 40 spots on campus. This is a nice start, but there seems to be a long road ahead.
One easy change could be made without so much as breaking ground on a new lot. The parking garage on Mississippi Street sits mostly unused on most weekdays because students aren't willing to pay such high rates.
Also, consolidating lots on campus to provide more Yellow spots wouldn't require drastic measures, just a few changed signs.
There are lots all over campus that are inefficiently filled. If the parking department takes a serious look at the problem and makes some real changes that both students and faculty can appreciate, life will be easier for everyone, including the parking department itself.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Students regale in fun, excitement of annual Suitcase Dance at Ellsworth
Students packed their bags and headed for Ellsworth Hall for the annual Suitcase Dance, sponsored by the Ellsworth Community Standards Board. Students were in for a night of fun and dancing along with free food and prizes to win along the way.
DJ Scottie Mac provided inspiration for the dancing which started around 8:30 and steadily picked up throughout the night.
Approximately 100 students attended the dance, an increase from last year. Students brought packed suitcases in order to be eligible for the grand prize, an all-expense paid trip for four to Kansas City.
Students were entered into the raffle for prizes in three ways. Those who wished to be eligible for all prizes were required to bring a packed suitcase and check it upon arrival of the dance.
The second way a student was eligible was for students to bring cans of food for the food bank. For every five cans of food that a student brought, they received an additional raffle ticket, with a limit of two extra tickets for 10 cans.
This allowed Ellsworth Hall to generate over
150 cans of food for the food bank, which will be delivered later this week. The third and final way was for students to attend without cans of food or a packed suitcase.
These students were eligible for all prizes except the grand prize. All three methods were utilized about the same amount.
Ellsworth did not cut the cost on prizes either. Keynote prizes were a DVD player, Xbox, 27-inch television, iPod and the grand prize — an all expense paid trip for four to Kansas City for two days. Other items included movies and gift certificates to various restaurants and stores around Lawrence. Students had to be in attendance in order to claim prizes which were given away at random times thought the night.
Jenny Flohrs, Ellsworth resident, won the grand prize of a trip for herself and three friends to Kansas City, a limousine ride there and back, and a $100 gift certificate to the Cheesecake Factory.
On behalf of the entire Ellsworth Community Standards Board, we thank all who attended and congratulate to the winners of prizes.

Judge delays trial of Westar execs
TOPEKA — A federal judge has delayed the second trial of two former Westar Energy Inc. executives, pending outcome of an appeal filed with the 10th U.S. Court of Appeals in Denver to disqualify the judge.
U. S. District Judge Julie Robinson issued an order Saturday delaying the scheduled May 9 trial of David Wittig and Douglas Lake, who are accused of looting Kansas' largest electric utility. Wittig, Westar's former CEO, and Lake, former chief strategy officer, have asked the federal appeals court to reverse a decision by Robinson to retain jurisdiction over the second trial.
Robinson said that the public interest would be harmed by the stay, but the potential for "irreparable damage to all parties" outweighed that concern.

Target to restrict sale of medications
ST. PAUL, Mn. — Discount retailer Target Corp. will no longer allow unfettered access to cold medicines that are used to make the illegal stimulant methamphetamine.
Target stores nationwide will pull many cold, allergy and cough remedies from their regular shelves and sell them only from pharmacy counters, the Minneapolis-based company announced yesterday.
The restrictions apply to all over-the-counter drugs containing pseudoephedrine, including children's medicines, tablets, liquids and gel-caps, spokeswoman Carolyn Brookter said. Pseudoephedrine is a key ingredient for meth, which can be made in makehift labs.
The products won't be sold at all by about 300 Target stores that don't have pharmacies. Target operates 1,330 stores in 47 states and is the nation's second largest discount retailer after Wal-Mart.
Brookter said the shift was in response to a growing number of state and local restrictions on the sale of the medications.

Bookstores trying to lure students
WATER BOOK STORE
Stores look to attract business all year-round

KANSAN STAFF WRITER
The Burge Union Bookstore is emptier than the management would like it, said Tim Norris, director of the Burge and Kansas Union Bookstores.
"The Burge Bookstore does well during book buying times," Norris said. "We want to know why students don't come in as much during the rest of the year."
Although business has fallen, the Burge Bookstore will not close any time soon, Norris said.
Competition and location may have something to do with the bookstore's low numbers.
People do not come in yearround and management is looking for new ways to regenerate business.
Declining numbers have led Norris and other managers to look at other options to bring in more students.
The students who do frequent the store often do so because of its close proximity.
"I went there when I was a freshman in the dorms," said Aimee Collier, Overland Park junior. "I haven't been there since. I always go to the Kansas Union."
Illustration by Geoff Young/KANSAN
The Burge Bookstore will put
up signs to advertise and will hold a free event next August called Burge Fest, Norris said. He said the event could possibly include live music acts.
Decisions on how to stay ahead of one another are not as drastic as a lot of other businesses, said Toni Retonde, manager of Jayhawk Bookstore, 1420 Crescent Rd.
Good customer service keeps some students coming back, but sales and sponsorship keep the business names out there year-round, she said.
"We strive to have the best customer service and our customers have come to expect that," Retonde said. "Students remember things like that."
Sidewalk sales help to move merchandise and give the business a good name. Norris said.
"We do sidewalk sales to get our name out amongst the students," Norris said. "Plus, we can give a good deal to the students who attend."
Sales help, but sponsorship helps customers see the name easier. Retonde said.
Both University Book Shop, 1116 W. 23rd St., and Jayhawk Bookstore also sponsor different events to help get their name out.
Although retail merchandise is a significant portion of revenue, book sales equate into a lot of money, said Kristin Vickers, manager of University Book Shop.
All the bookstores seek to bring in students outside of their normal clientele. Whether by having a good location, or providing sales or sponsoring summer events, all the stores seek to glean the most from the student cash cow.

Gov. Sebelius signs new legislation
TOPEKA — Criminals preying on children will face harsh penalties under a new law signed yesterday by Gov. Kathleen Sebelius.
The governor also signed legislation protecting disabled
All the new laws go into effect July 1. The proposals combatting child predators and abuse of the disabled were advocated by Attorney General Phil Kline.
Kansans from abuse in hospitals, mental health centers or group homes, and banned racial profiling by law enforcement officials.
"We have an absolute duty
to protect our children and that means putting child predators and child pornographers behind bars," Sebelius said in a statement.
The penalty for indecent solicitation of a child under age 14 was increased, which in many cases would mean prison rather than probation for those convicted of the crime.
Under the new law, prosecu
tors will be able to charge those possessing child pornography with a crime for each image.
The new law also extends the statute of limitations for most felonies and misdemeanors from two years to five years.
"If police and prosecutors need more time to build a case, they should get it," Sebelius said.
Disabled Kansans would
receive greater protection from the Department of Social and Rehabilitation Services under another new law.
It would give SRS authority to seek a court order to shut down any private psychiatric hospital or any facility for the mentally disabled that's operating without a license.

Former defender wants to play after Middle East service
BY RYAN COLAIANNI
rcolaianni@kansan.com
KANSAN SPORTSWITER
The Kansas defensive end position appears to be strong with Charleton Keith and Jermial Ashley leading the way. However, an old face may re-enter the picture when training camp begins in August.
John McCoy, who has been serving in the 317th Quartermaster Batallion in the Middle East, has exchanged emails with coach Mark Mangino throughout his service abroad. Mangino received another e-mail last Friday.
"He wants to play football again. He is just not sure about physically and mentally depending on what time he gets back." Mangino said.
McCoy thinks he will be back at some point during the summer. Mangino said.
McCoy last played for the Jayhawks in 2003, during his junior year. During that season McCoy registered 11 tackles, including a sack and a forced fumble. McCoy left the team to join his Batallion before his senior year.
In the e-mail, McCoy said that the Middle East was beginning the hottest months of the year, with temperatures higher than 100 everyday. The heat has McCoy worried about his weight, Mangino said.
"He is keeping his body weight to about 250. He is concerned now with the heat," Mangino said. "A lot of the troops are going to cut a lot of weight this time of year."
McCoy was listed at 6-foot-3, 250 pounds, during his time at Kansas.
"I think it would be tough for him to show up at the end of July, early August from the Middle East and think he is going to be able to compete," Mangino said.
McCoy has not said where he was currently stationed, but did tell Mangino that he moved locations often.
"He said when they settled for a while they actually have tents that they put up and they have a weight room," Mangino said. "He said he goes and lifts and reads."
Mangino does not want to rush him back to the field too quickly, especially right after his return.
If McCoy did return, he would likely compete with Keith, Ashley and junior college transfer Rodney Allen for playing time.
"I told him the first thing is we will get you your education, if you feel good and healthy, mentally and physically, we will get you out on the ball field. We would love to have you back," Mangino said.
McCoy transferred from Victor Valley College for his junior season.

CRIME
Urination leads to fight
BY JOSHUA BICKEL
jbickel@hansan.com
STAFF WRITE
Former KU football player John Randle will be back in court late next month.
Randle is scheduled to appear in Lawrence Municipal Court on May 25 on charges of battery and urinating in public, according to court records.
Randle was arrested early Saturday morning on charges of battery after a fight outside the Granada, 1020 Massachusetts St, involving a 27-year-old manager of the Granada and an 18-year-old KU student, Ezekiel Adair, according to a police report.
The manager flagged down police outside the Granada after the fight, said Sgt. Dan Ward, Lawrence Police Department spokesman.
The manager told police that about 2:10 a.m., a car had pulled up outside the Granada. A man and a woman got out of the vehicle and walked over to Fatso's, 1016 Massachusetts St., to stand in line for pizza, according to the report.
The manager approached Randle and told him to stop. Randle laughed at the manager and then moved to another spot near the Granada and continued urinating, Ward said.
Randle then stepped out of the vehicle, walked over to the Granada and began to urinate on the wall near the door, according to the report.
When the manager approached the man again, he punched the manager in the face, which caused the manager fall to the ground, Ward said.

Ultimate Frisbee wins sectionals

TULSA, Okla. — The KU men's ultimate Frisbee team, the HorrorZontals, won its tournament in Tulsa, Okla., during the weekend.
KU ultimate Frisbee club member Simon Mance, Milwaukee junior, tries to make a throw against Harding University at last weekend's sectionals tournament in Tulsa, Okla. The team went 5-0 during the weekend and will compete in Dallas April 30 and May 1 in regionals.
The team is ranked No. 23 nationally in the poll taken by the Ultimate Players Association.
Ultimate Frisbee is a team sport but is played with a flying disc instead of a ball. Like football, each team tries to get to the end zone of the other team. Unique to ultimate Frisbee is that there are no referees. The game is played on an honor system in which players are expected to play by the rules and call their own fouls. The game requires teamwork, something Andrew Wimer, team captain and Overland Park junior, said played a part in the team's success.
"Everyone played great," Wimer said. "We really rely on everyone. It was a joint victory."
Leading the team in the weekend's victories were Wimer and fellow co-captains Stu Jack, Tulsa, Okla., senior, and Austin Gangel, Tulsa, Okla., senior. The tournament; the Ozark Sectionals, determined which teams would go to the regional tournament. The HorrorZontals played five games, coming away with a 5-0 record. The women's team, the Bettys, won the women's tournament and will advance to regionals.
The HorrorZontals faced Missouri's MUtants during the tournament and won 13-5 . Other teams that Kansas faced were John Brown, Washington, Oklahoma and
Harding universities.
The ultimate Frisbee team will attend the regional tournament in Dallas in two weeks.
"Regionals are one of the biggest tournaments the team has to play this season." Wimer said.
Last year the team won regionals and went onto nationals.
"Sectional victory was really good for us because now we will be ranked high in the regional games." Wimer said.
The HorrorZontals played host to a tournament. Fools Fest, the first weekend in April and had a large turnout. Some of the teams that attended were the MUtants, Colorado, Iowa and K-State. The HorrorZontals made it to semifinals, losing to
top-seeded Colorado.
Ultimate Frisbee is a club sport at Kansas. Each fall, the team lets anyone who wants to play come out and play. There is a no-cut policy, with two teams usually formed based on skill level. The teams practice on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 4:30 p.m., at 23rd and Iowa Streets.
Anyone interested in watching the practices or the games is encouraged to attend practices or check out the team's Web site at www.zontals.org.
"The HorrorZontals are another way of showing how great our school's sport system is." Overland Park freshman Chris Hill said.

Relays bring buzz, bragging rights to KU
Could it be possible that Wilt Chamberlain, one of the most dominant basketball players of all time, opted to attend the University of Kansas not because of the basketball program, but for another reason not related to basketball at all?
"Wilt Chamberlain loved track and field," said Tim Weaver, meet director for the Kansas Relays. "He said on a number of occasions that track was his first and greatest love in sports. He made his recruiting trip here during the Kansas Relays, and that was one of the things that convinced him to come to Kansas. He said a lot of great places in this country have great basketball teams, but I've never seen anything before like the Kansas Relays. That's why he ended up here at KU."
Chamberlain only adds to the rich history of what is one of the most significant annual athletics events at the University. The first relays were held in 1923 and were started by Kansas football coach John Outland, with the help of basketball coach Phog Allen. Refereed by sports legends such as the inventor of basketball James Naismith, KU basketball All-American and future Kentucky coach Adolph Rupp, and Notre Dame football coach Knute Rockne, the event would become one of the major events in track and field.
On Thursday night, more than 5,000 athletes will have traveled to Lawrence for the first night of the 78th Kansas Relays. These high school, college and professional athletes will represent more than 600 teams from 16 states and 15 countries.
As one of the "Big 5" relay events in the country, this year's Kansas Relays is garnering significant attention. The other four major events are the Penn Relays in Philadelphia, the Texas Relays in Austin, the Drake Relays in Des Moines, Iowa, and the Mount San Antonio College Relays in Walnut Calif.
"This year, I would argue, although I'm a biased source, we're creating more buzz than anybody." Weaver said. "Kansas Relays this year has been the most talked about of those five events without a doubt. We're getting more regional and national press."
This year's event is highlighted by the Gold Zone on Saturday afternoon from 2 to 5 p.m. Olympic champions and world record holders Maurice Greene, Marion Jones and Stacy Dragila will compete in addition to Olympians Allen Johnson, Inger Miller and Nick Hysong.
"I know a lot this year has been made of the all-star cast of world champions and Olympians," Kansas junior middle distance runner Brandon Hodges said. "There are a lot of high-caliber performers coming."
On top of all of the Olympic champions that will grace the Memorial Stadium track, the newest breed of future track and field stars will also be present.
"We just don't have the household names that have been around since Sydney and Athens," Weaver said. "We've got a lot of people that are expected to be the stars of Beijing in that Olympic games. That combination has the track

Two KU players placed on defensive award watch list
Kansas sophomore defensive back Charles Gordon and junior linebacker Nick Reid have been named to the 2005 Lott Trophy Watch List.
The award is given annually to the nation's top defensive player. Forty-two players are on the watch list.
Gordon and Reid were both first team All-Big 12 selections last season and Gordon was named an Associated Press third-team All-American.
The award is named for Football Hall of Famer Ronnie Lott. Last year was the first year the award was given, and Georgia's David Pollack took home the hardware.
The award also takes into account off-the-field factors including integrity, maturity, performance, academics, community involvement and tenacity. The Lott Trophy is the only college football award that includes both on-field and off-field performance.
Gordon had a nation-leading seven interceptions last season. Reid ranked second in the conference in tackles and was one of just three players in the conference last season to record more than 100 tackles with 109.
Both players were named team captains at the spring game on Saturday.
The award will be presented Dec. 11 at the Pacific Club in Newport Beach, Calif.

KANSAN SPORTSWRITER
The Kansas men's golf team will face off against the best teams in the Big 12 Conference on Friday, April 29 in Trinity, Texas. The Jayhawks have practiced every day since they returned from Holly Springs, N.C., last week. With three tournament titles this year, the team could finish strong at Whispering Pines. Here is an in-depth look at some of the teams the Jayhawks will be teeing it up with.
Colorado
The Colorado
Buffaloos have endured a season of struggles. The team is currently ranked. 781b
in the nation in the Golf Week poll. The Buffaloes' last tournament was the Courtyard by Marriott Intercollegiate in Holly Springs, N.C., which was also the Jayhawks' last tournament. Colorado finished in 11th place with a three-round total of 584 four shots behind Kansas.

Junior golfer Edward McGlasson has been the top performer for
Colorado all season long. He has led the team individually in the team's five tournaments. In those tournaments, Colorado has not placed higher than fifth. Their best tournament was the Stevinson Ranch Invitational, a tournament which the

The Tigers won the Boilermaker Invitational in West Lafayette, Ind., on Sunday for their second consecutive tournament title, beating Purdue by eight strokes. Scott led the way for the Tigers—he finished the tournament in third place with a three-round total of 212. The victory gave Missouri its second multiple-victory semester in school history. With two straight team victories and a full head of steam, the Tigers are the hottest group heading into the Big 12 Championships.

The Wildcats ended their regular season on Sunday, playing in the FirstEnergy Intercollegiate in Akron, Ohio, at the historical Firestone Country Club. Kansas State entered into the final round on Sunday in a tie for fourth place, and that is where they finished. Van Cleave led all Wildcats for their seventh straight event with a total score of 217, one over par for the tournament.
Kansas State's regular season is officially over and it will have 10 days to prepare for the Big 12 Championships.

Coach leaves legacy of human spirit
BY JENNA FRYER
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Sam Mills, an undersized linebacker who became a Pro Bowl player with New Orleans and Carolina and was later an assistant coach for the Panthers, died yesterday after fighting cancer for nearly two years, the Panthers said. He was 45.
Mills, who was diagnosed with cancer of the small intestine in August 2003 but continued to coach Carolina's linebackers between chemotherapy treatments, died at his home.
"Sam was one of the finest people you will ever meet. You would never know that he was a player who made Pro Bowls and had all this attention because he treated everybody the same no matter who they were," Carolina general manager Marty Hurney said. "He never had a bad thing to say about anybody and had a great ability to laugh at himself.
"He was the type of guy you want your kids to grow up to be."
A five-time Pro Bowl selection, the 5-foot-9, 225-pound Mills spent the final three seasons of his 12-year NFL career with the Panthers, beginning with their inaugural season in 1995.
There is a statue of him outside Bank of America Stadium, and he is the only player in the team's Hall of Honor. Mike McCormack, Carolina's first team president, is the only other inductee in the Hall.
"Words are inadequate to express what Sam meant to the Panthers organization." Carolina owner Jerry Richardson said. "We were privileged to have him as a member of our family, and we are devastated over this loss."
Mills spent his first nine NFL seasons with the New Orleans Saints, following three seasons in the United States Football League. He finished his career with 1,319 tackles while starting 173 of 181 games.
He joined the Panthers' coaching staff upon his retirement.
"He's definitely the best coach I ever had." Panthers linebacker Will Witherspoon said. "I got to talk to him the last couple of weeks and I knew that he wasn't doing well, but he never wanted to bring that up.
"He always wanted to focus on how I was doing. There's nothing better than the fact that he concentrated more on other people than he did himself."
Mills was an undersized linebacker out of Montclair (N.J.) State who tried — and failed several times
to catch on with NFL and Canadian Football League teams. He gave professional football one last shot with the debut of the USFL in 1985.
Every day, Stars coach Jim Mora asked his assistants who the best player on the field was. Every day, they told him "Sam Mills."
"I don't need a 5-9 linebacker," Mora kept saying.
Mills ended up as one of Mora's favorite players and when Mora went to the Saints after the USFLs demise, he brought Mills with him in 1986.
Mills went to his first four Pro Bowls with the Saints and was elected to Louisiana's Sports Hall
of Fame. He is also a member of New Jersey's Sports Hall of Fame.
"Sam was a member of the Saints family and the community here in New Orleans, and those times will be forever cherished and never forgotten," the Saints said in a statement. "He was embraced not only by our organization but the whole community who loved his spirit, his positive attitude and his drive and determination.
"He never backed away from a battle and took on each and every challenge with the heart of a champion."
Mills moved on to the Panthers in 1995, and figured prominently in the franchise's first win, against the Jets on Oct. 15, 1995, at Clemson, S.C., when he intercepted a shovel pass and returned it 36 yards for a key touchdown.
He led the team in tackles in 1995 and 1996, when the Panthers won the NFC West and made a surprise run to the NFC title game.
Mills was diagnosed with cancer in 2003, hours before he showed up at the stadium to coach the Panthers' linebackers in their preseason finale. It was a devastating blow to the team, which, had learned two weeks earlier that linebacker Mark Fields also had cancer.
Carolina restructured its coaching duties the next week to take some of the responsibilities off of Mills during his treatment.
Originally given just a few months to live, Mills battled the cancer and didn't miss a single game that season. He scheduled treatment for off days to cut down on his time away from the team, and he often had to
coach from the press box that year to preserve his strength.
"The club basically gave me the option as to how much I wanted to be around," Mills said. "Hey, I am a football coach. That is what I am. As long as I have the power in me to go ahead and continue to coach, I'd like to continue to coach."
He was an inspiration to the team that season as Carolina won the NFC championship and went on to the Super Bowl.
Players wore his No. 51, along with Fields' 58, under their jerseys that season, and Mills gave an emotional pregame speech during their plavoff run.
He flew to Houston on the Thursday before the Super Bowl, one day after a round of chemotherapy, and joined Fields for a news conference. Sweating and holding on to the podium for balance, he said "You have your good days and your bad days. I am just glad I am having days, you know?"
Mills continued his treatment all of last season. He was honored by the NFL in March with the Johnny Unitas Tops in Courage Award.
"Although it can be said that he left his imprint on the NFL as a player, it is his legacy as a human being that serves as an example for all of us to follow," said Bill Kuharich, Kansas City's vice president of pro personnel, who was with Mills with the Stars and Saints.
Mills is survived by his wife, Melanie, and four children: Sons Sam III and Marcus and daughters Larissa and Sierra.

NFL negotiates network switch
BY DAVE GOLDBERG THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
wife Sons hters
NEW YORK — "Monday Night Football," a television institution that in over 55 years has helped transform the NFL into a prime-time ratings draw, is leaving ABC and moving to ESPN beginning with the 2006 season.
The new broadcast deal also brings the NFL to NBC for the first time in six years. The network gets the Sunday night package — which the league now considers its marquee television showcase — and will employ a flexible scheduling model.
"In the current media environment, Sunday is now the better night for our prime-time broadcast package," commissioner Paul Tagliabue said yesterday.
The move to ESPN, which currently broadcasts Sunday night games, keeps the Monday Night Football brand within the umbrella of The Disney Company. Disney owns both ESPN and ABC.
After the coming season.
NBC will start its Sunday broadcasts with a pregame show at 7 p.m. Eastern time; games will begin at 8:15. The network plans to use a flexible scheduling model that in the last seven weeks, allowing it to shift afternoon games to prime time to ensure more meaningful games are shown on national TV.
ABC, which reshaped sports broadcasting by turning the NFL into a prime-time ratings draw, will be the only major network not to carry it. "Monday Night Football" has been a pillar of ABC since it began in 1970, when Howard Cosell anchored the show that now stands as the second-longest running prime time network series, trailing CBS's "60 Minutes" by two years.
The Monday night move to basic cable, which includes an earlier start time of 8:40 p.m., is expected to cost ESPN — which previously broadcast Sunday night games — $1.1 billion a year over eight years, two sources familiar with the deals told The Associated
*Press* on condition of anonymity.
*tv.*
NBC will get the Sunday night package for $600 million a year over six years, according to the sources. The network will also get the Super Bowl in 2009 and 2012 as part of the deal.
"A great deal with the NFL is the best deal you can get in television," said NBC sports chairman Dick Ebersol, who said NBC only began negotiating with the NFL last Friday after ABC, which had the option on the prime-time broadcasts until Oct. 31, relinquished it after talks with the league.
He said the network hasn't started working on finding anchors for the Sunday night broadcast. "We're celebrating for a day. Then I'm sure we'll get a lot of calls."
Last month, Tagliabue said during the NFL meetings in Hawaii that the Monday night move was a strong possibility. ^aBC, which has been losing money on the package despite high ratings had been balking at the NFL asking price.
NBC has been struggling in prime-time this season, and even risks an unprecedented fall into fourth place in the ratings. ABC's newfound ratings strength with "Desperate Housewives" on Sunday nights has been particularly damaging. NBC says it will devote its entire Sunday night prime-time lineup to the NFL.
CBS and Fox already have agreed to pay a total of $8 billion over six years for the rights to Sunday afternoon games.
The NFL is still considering an eight game late-season package of Thursday and Saturday night games on cable and satellite. Tagliabue has said the NFL's own new network could show some or all of those games.
The NFL will continue to show all cable games on free, over-the air television in home markets. That means that local stations will carry ESPN's Monday night games in the cities of the teams involved.

Armstrong to retire after one last Tour de France
BY CHARLES ODOM
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
AUGUSTA, Ga. — Lance Armstrong will retire from professional cycling after this summer's Tour de France, ending one of the greatest sports careers.
JAMES HAWKINS
"Ultimately, athletes have to retire ... the body doesn't just keep going and going," Armstrong said.
The 33-year-old Texan will attempt to win his record seventh straight Tour de France in July. Before Armstrong, Miguel Indurain of Spain held the record with five-straight Tour de France victories.
John Bazemore/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Eddy Merckx of Belgium and Bernard Hinault and Jacques Anquetil of France are the only other riders with Tour de France races victories overall.
Cyclist Lance Armstrong announces at yesterday's news conference in Augusta, Ga., he will retire from the sport after this year's Tour de France. Armstrong's six consecutive Tour de France titles and his recovery from testicular cancer have made him a superstar in the sport and an international celebrity.
Armstrong's streak of six straight titles and his inspirational recovery from testicular cancer have made him a superstar in the sport and an international celebrity.
Armstrong's possible retirement plans had become the focus of growing speculation. In recent months he spoke that he wanted to spend more time with his three children and on his campaign against cancer.
Armstrong says he is "100 percent committed" to his decision to retire and that he will not be participating in any other races after July 24 - the scheduled end of the Tour de France.
The announcement came last night before Armstrong's six day, 648-mile event he began today as a training tool for the Tour de France.

world really excited."
The Kansas Relays were close to folding several years ago. The event was canceled in 1998 and 1999. Weaver said many residents felt as though the relays were done, but after some track and field alumni made some noise about raising money to renovate Memorial Stadium, the event returned with success in 2000.
"The passion that people have for the Kansas Relays has been tremendous," Weaver said. "There are so many people that come into my office every week to volunteer to help out."
On top of impacting the University, the Kansas Relays have an economic impact of more than $4 million.
"That's a tremendous benefit to all the local businesses here." Weaver said. "It also benefits the community with the tax dollars that are brought in based on all that revenue."
The relays start on Thursday night and continue through Saturday, culminating with the Gold Zone in the afternoon.
"It's a great bragging point for the city of Lawrence." Weaver said. "It's a great point of pride for the University."
Hodges said he didn't realize how big this event was until he came to the University after winning his event the year before at the Kansas Relays as a high school senior.
"We put this huge meet on, tons of people come in, it's a big deal and everyone talks about it," he said. "It's such a tradition, and it's really nice to be a part of that. This is pretty much as big as it gets."

Behind the scenes remains official business
Long-time volunteer reflects on the glory days of the Kansas Relays, looks forward to his 41st meet
KANSAS
RELAYS
Doug Beene, 71, has officiated at the Kansas Relays for 40 years since he started as a volunteer in 1965. Beene attended the Relays for the first time at age 12, shortly after World War II ended, and will officiate for the 41st time this weekend at Memorial Stadium.

KANSAN SPORTSWRIVER
Kit Leffler/KANSAN
Doug Beene looked a little puzzled as he sat down at his kitchen table.
"Where did you get my name?" he asked.
He was wondering why someone would drive all the way out to his house, five miles south of town and another mile up a gravel road, just to talk to him.
Beene, 71, doesn't view his 40 years of officiating at the Kansas Relays as anything special.
But it is special. Though the athletes have drawn the fans, people like Beene have kept the meet going through the decades.
Beene, a retired computer systems analyst for the Kansas Geological Survey at the University of Kansas, was born in Lawrence in 1934. He remembers attending his first Kansas Relays when he was about 12 years old, soon after World War II ended, with his friend Rod Kanehl, whose father, Ray, was the track and field coach at Kansas.
Coincidentally, Kanehl went on to make sports history of his own when he became a utility player for three years on one of the worst teams in Major League Baseball history, the 1962-64 New York Metts, and hit the franchise's firstever grand slam.
A generation later, Beene started taking his youngest of four children, Steve, to the Kansas Relays in the early 1970s.
Steve remembers attending the meet every year from age 6 until he finished high school. He remembers running scores from the finish line to the scorer's table each year to help his dad.
And, of course, he remembers the races.
"B back
Back in the days when Jim Ryun was going, we had 20 or 30 thousand people in the stands. I think they're trying to get back to that, and this is the right way to do it."
Doug Beene Kansas Relays official
"I remember seeing Jim Ryun run, so that was cool," Steve Beene, 40, said. "The steeplechase was always fun. And the meet always ended with the 4-by-100-meter relay, which was always the funnest race."
The elder Beene started volunteering at the Kansas Relays in 1965, when he was 31 years old, during Bill Easton's last year as coach at the University. He said he signed up to officiate after seeing an article in the paper that said the University was looking for volunteers.
Before a meet in one of his first years officiating, Beene recalled how unorganized it was. Officials had been working for hours to make sure the starting order was correct for the next day's races, but coach Bob Timmons realized that the runners were all assigned to the wrong lanes after most of the officials had gone home.
"My wife says I got back real late that night," he said, laughing a little.
As he sat at the kitchen table, with his wife Ginny's old ornamental family plates lining the walls, each with a note on its back saying which of
their 10 grandchildren would inherit it, he told another story.
One year, his job was to record results in meet headquarters, which was in a room under the Memorial Stadium stands.
A woman came into the room and asked to borrow a pair of shoes and for a place to sit while she waited for her event.
"I told her, 'You can sit in here,' and I went to the KU girls up in the stands and asked for shoes," he said. "They asked who she was, and I told them her name: Madeline Manning. They said, 'Madeline Manning?'
Turns out she was an Olympic medalist."
Over the years, Beene has seen the meet go through several changes. When he started, women's events were absent and fewer high-profile professional athletes made appearances.
This weekend, he will direct volunteer officials during the meet from the southeast corner of the stands. It's a job he's done for the last couple of years, after working several other jobs through the decades, including timing, placing runners at the finish line and recording results.
He said he was looking forward to this year's meet, especially the new meet format, including the Gold Zone. In the new format, the premier events will take place from 2 to 5 p.m. on Saturday.
"In past years we had the prime events, but they were spread out," he said. "Back in the days when Jim Ryun was going, we had 20 or 30 thousand people in the stands. I think they're trying to get back to that, and this is the right way to do it."
As he led his way out the door and stood with his hands in his pockets, Beene had one last prize to show off.
"Want to see something?" he asked with a booming grin.
He walked to the back of his house, which sits high on top of a hill, and pointed north.
There, framed perfectly by the clouds and a row of trees, was the University, sitting on the horizon on a sunny spring morning.
"That's one of the main reasons we bought the house," he said.
And staring at the University, he was smiling and looking forward to his 41st Kansas Relays.

Choice surprises Lawrence
Pope Benedict XVI greets the crowd from a balcony of St. Peter's Basilica at the Vatican yesterday. Joseph Ratzinger of Germany, who chose the name of Pope Benedict XVI, is the 265th pontiff of the Roman Catholic Church.

German pope's age among chief concerns

KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Ask Catholics in Lawrence and many will tell you they didn't expect Joseph Ratzinger to be elected pope.
The College of Cardinals elected Ratzinger of Germany to succeed John Paul II as pope yesterday.
The decision surprised many on campus, including Monsignor Vince Krische of the St. Lawrence Catholic Campus Center.
He said Ratzinger, who turned 78 on Saturday and chose the name Benedict XVI, had a lot of experience, but that he didn't know what to expect from the German pope.
"It'll be interesting to see now his approach to the Third World," he said. "I wonder where he'll go first and what his first speech will be."
He said he did not anticipate a German would be selected as the new pope. He thought the new pope would have come from a Latin-American or Third-World country, rather than from Europe, he said.
He said Ratzinger's international recognition, however, probably helped him earn votes from his fellow cardinals.
Krische also said he thought Ratzinger's fluency in Italian helped his case. His strong fluency in Italian could benefit the Romans who listen to him, he said. Ratzinger is also fluent in

nine other languages, Krische said.
Ratzinger would continue to develop the relationship between Christians and members of other religions, he said.
The new pope's old age was the general concern among students.
"I was worried because he was so old." Lauren Grabowsky,
Dallas freshman. said.
She said she didn't want Ratzinger to have as short of a reign as Pope John Paul II's predecessor, Pope John Paul I, who died 33 days after his election.
Kate Phillips, Lansing junior, was also concerned about Ratzinger's age.
"He's going to die soon and then they're going to have to go through all this again," she said
But she was more concerned about Ratzinger's values, which she heard were the most conservative of all the candidates, she said. She wished the cardinals had elected a more progressive pope, she said.

Coming out buoys Rundle
BY JASON SHAD
jshaad@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
People keep telling Mike Rundle that he must feel as though a great weight is off his shoulders. But the city commissioner and former mayor said he didn't feel that way. He announced he was gay because he had no secrets to keep.
"When people say that, I imagine a big slab of concrete or something on my shoulders, but I didn't feel like that," Rundle said. "I wasn't ashamed of being gay and I didn't think it had to be out there for me to be accepted."
During his State of the City Address last week, Rundle, 51, announced for the first time publicly that he was gay.
"People have responded with extreme enthusm as," Rundle said. "To use the popular expression: It's been a trip."
PETER GRIFFITH
Since the meeting, Rundle has received many e-mails and phone messages from people saying they were proud of his announcement.
Rundle, who also works as a shift manager at the Community Mercantile Co-op, said he had not publicly announced his sexuality because he was in the process of coming out to his family.
Rundle
But on the night before his
State of the City Address at City Call, Rundle made an "intuitive and organic" decision to announce that he was proud of serving as Lawrence's first known
gay mayor.
Rundle attended the University of Kansas from 1971 to 1976 and earned a bachelor's degree in human development and family life.
He said he never told others he was gay in college, adding that he was reserved about his sexuality. There were no gay and lesbian organizations like Queers and Allies, he said.
"I was pretty closed," Rundle said. "Acceptance was just surfacing at that time."
His decision to announce he was gay was prompted by "whisper campaigns" about his sexuality. Rundle said people had made derogatory comments about him in past elections. After voters passed a state constitutional amendment prohibiting gay marriage, he felt he needed to make a statement, he said.
"I wanted to say I'm gay, it's

Some student athletes think they are being exploited.

The Redwood, Calif., company is the largest video

Coalition disputes fine
STUDENT SENATE
BY DANIEL BERK
dberk@kansan.com
kANSAN STAFF WRITER
Student Senate elections ended last week, but the Student Voice coalition is still getting fined for violations that happened before the election.
Student Voice received a violation complaint for not turning in its expense report on time. The report was due Monday, April 11, and the coalition did not turn it in until the next morning.
Dennis Chanay, presidential candidate for Student Voice, said that the coalition had no expenses to report and that he was told by members of the elections commission to put that on the report and turn it in.
Chanay, Paola freshman, said that he wrote on the report that the coalition was broke and that it was stamped by elections commission chairman Luke Thompson. Chanay said he was told that there would be a violation filed against the coalition for turning the report in late but that it would be a minor infraction and only cost the coalition $25.
Thompson said that was not entirely true. He said that the expense
Normally, if you plead guilty, the commission lowers the fine. This time, though, they decided to raise the fine up with no real good reason."
said. "This time, though, they decided to raise the fine up with no real good reason."

Thompson said that he had no comment on the amount of the fine and that he was out of the room while the commission was deliberating it. He said the decision on the fine was up to the hearing board and not him.
Chanay said the coalition was upset with the commission's decision and would file an appeal today with University Governance. Chanay said that if University Governance rules against its appeal, the coalition would then consider taking legal action against the commission.
report should have been more detailed and included how they paid for things, whether it was through a donation or out of their own pockets.
Thompson said the commission took into consideration the form being incomplete and late.
Chanay and the coalition pleaded guilty at the violation hearing Monday afternoon. The commission decided to fine the coalition $100 because it had made a mockery of the election commission by writing on the report that the coalition was broke, Chanay said.
"We are prepared to fight this for as long as we have to," Chanay said. "Luke said we didn't respect the commission, and I don't think that's a reason to raise a fine for not turning in a report in time."
"Normally, if you plead guilty, the commission lowers the fine," Chanay
Student Voice received a total of eight violations throughout the election. Six of the violations were filed against the coalition as a whole, and two others were filed against individuals of the coalition.

SAFETY
City looks into fatal accident
BY JOSHUA BICKEL
jbickel@kansan.com
STAFF WRITER
High volumes of traffic are the main reason some areas in Lawrence have more accidents than others, said David Woosley, traffic engineer for the city of Lawrence.
Iowa Street is one of those highvolume areas that creates a good environment for accidents, Woosley said.
Twenty-eight noninjury accidents have occurred along Iowa Street between January and March, according to police statistics.
No areas in particular had more than one injury accident, said Sgt. Dan Ward, Lawrence Police Department.
In an effort to prevent serious accidents from happening, the Lawrence Police Department has a traffic unit of six police officers and one sergeant, Ward said.
Aggressive enforcement of traffic laws has been the main objective of the unit since its inception in 2002.
Since 2003, seven fatal accidents have occurred in Lawrence, according to police statistics.
The traffic unit gives out about 800 moving violations per month, Ward said.
Since 2003, seven fatal accidents
It is hoped that the aggressive enforcement will prevent serious accidents from happening, Ward said.
have occurred in Lawrence, according to police statistics.
In the last year, two fatal accidents have occurred on Sixth Street, both near Iowa Street, according to police statistics.
Despite a recent fatal accident in front of Cadillac Ranch, 2515 W. Sixth St.. major changes by the city aren't expected to occur.
Even though both accidents occurred in the same area, no major changes are expected along the road because the cause of the accidents appears to be driver error, Woosley said.
ACCIDENTS
High-traffic areas have more accidents in Lawrence. Below is a list of the top five intersections with the most accidents from January to March 2005.
"In one case, someone pulled out in front of a motorcycle," he said. "It wasn't an engineering problem at all."
1) 23rd and Harper streets — 13
2) 23rd and Haskell streets — 11
    15th and Iowa streets — 11
3) Sixth and Iowa streets — 9
4) 23rd and Iowa streets — 8
Nevertheless, traffic engineers will conduct an investigation into the nature of the accident and determine if anything from an engineering standpoint can be done to prevent future accidents from occurring. Woosley said.
Below is the number of fatal accidents in Lawrence since 2003.

will change," he said. "If we see the same type of accident occur multiple times in an area, then we look at a change."
Drivers not paying attention is the main cause for most accidents in Lawrence,not engineering,Woosley said.
"But that's not particular to Lawrence; that's pretty much true anywhere," he said.

Pair protests pot-puffing prohibition
BY NEIL MULKA
nmulka@kansan.com
KANSAN STaff WRITE
Thomas Trower stands alone near Ninth and Massachusetts streets.
HONK
FOR
HEMP
It's a nice Saturday night — the Commerce Bank thermometer a few blocks away flashes 68 degrees. Dozens of people are out, many of them honking and yelling at Trower.
Every honking car and hollering person receives an oversize thumbs-up approval from Trower.
Trower is the man who holds the "Honk For Hemp" sign every Saturday and Sunday on Massachusetts Street.
It's a sign of protest that he and Mark Creamer, a 58-year-old Lawrence resident, have made since 1991.
In total, the duo has spent more than 1,400 hours of their lives on the corners of Massachusetts Street.
It's a protest for justice. Creamer said.
"It's a smarter choice for me to choose marijuana than alcohol," Creamer said. "It's better for my body. It isn't just that I'm threatened to lose my job and my freedom because it's a better choice. I thought America was about the right to choose."
Trower has a simpler reason.
Trower has a simpler reason.
"I want to grow my own."
Trower, a 54-year-old Lawrence resident, said. "The alkies have theirs, I want mine."
Right now its illegal to grow cannabis sativa or cannabis indica — also known as hemp or marijuana — or use it for its intoxicating effect.
It's legal to import goods such as hemp seeds, paper, oil and food. These items don't contain enough delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol, or THC, the chemical that produces the "high" marijuana smokers feel.
Honk For Hemp evolved from Gulf War protests in 1990 and 1991. It was during those protests that Creamer met Trower, who
was handing out copies of Jack Herer's The Emperor Wore No Clothes, a collection of essays about the politics of marijuana.
While the protests faded away, Trower stayed every Saturday, protesting for the legalization of hemp. In the meantime, Creamer had his own pro-marijuana protests Tuesday nights in front of City Hall.
"At some point we decided to work together." Creamer said.
And Honk For Hemp was born.
Instead of making one large protest with 2,000 people, they wondered 1,000 protests of two men would make a larger impact.
Rachel Seymour/KANSAN
"I think we surpassed it in 2003." Creamer said.
On Saturday there were more than 70 honors during the one-hour period Creamer was holding the sign.
At least one of the duo can be seen year-round waving at passing motorists.
Thomas Trower, 54 year-old Lawrence resident, promotes the legalization of marijuana at Ninth and Massachusetts streets on last Saturday night. Trower says that the drug is illegal mainly because it's viewed as immoral.
"I'm not very mobile,but I'm warm." Trower said.
During the colder months Trower wears multiple layers of thermal underwear underneath his "hemp uniform," a complete outfit made of hemp, from shoes to hat.
Breaking the law
One instance sticks out in both Trower's and Creamer's minds.
Other than honks and hollers, Creamer and Trower get flashes.
A few years ago, a car full of people stopped at the light and one of them yelled out, "Fucking smoke pot!"
"We did have a girl expose herself from a limo." Trower said. "Evidently she raised her top. I didn't see it happen, I was turned away. She got a ticket for it."
Two police officers on foot
Lawrence police giving out tickets isn't an unusual sight for Trower. Through the years he has seen people busted for yelling obscenities or overhonking.
pulled them over on suspicion of yelling obscenities, Creamer said. Then the police noticed open containers and after searching the car they found a pipe and a bag of marijuana.
The lesson learned?
"If you're going to break the law, only break one law at a time." Creamer said.
In Kansas, possession of marjuana is a misdemeanor. Punishment is up to a year in prison and a $2,500 fine for a first-time offense.
Creamer isn't a stranger to breaking the law. In 1989, Creamer smoked a joint in the Lawrence Police station to protest George H. Bush's budget increases to fight the war on drugs.
Creamer received six months in jail for what he calls his "stunt."
"The DA suggested that standing on the corner is protest, not smoking marijuana," Creamer said.
What's the impact?
Despite the fact that Honk For Hemp has been around for more than a decade, Creamer
ponders how much of a difference the protest has made.
Eric Benavidez, Topeka senior, said, "It's effective in raising local awareness. But I think it's too localized to get policy changed."
When he was in college in the late 1960s, Creamer asked himself what would happen first: the fall of the Iron Curtain or the legalization of marijuana.
"It's scary to see how long as it's gone on." Creamer said.
Creamer chose marijuana, but when the Curtain dropped in 1989. marijuana was still illegal.
In 1989, Creamer thought marijuana would be legal in five years.
"I'm beginning to worry that it won't be legal in my lifetime," Creamer said.
It's 2005, and marijuana is still illegal.
But Trower vows to keep protesting until hemp is legal.
"We're ornery and not leaving," Creamer said "I'm not sure what we're doing except to keep hope alive."

KANSAN STAFF WRITER*
Tulips fill flower beds all over campus each spring, but their days are numbered. Landscape crews uproot them in April to make room for summer flowers. The leftover tulips are discarded and Facilities Operations crews purchase new bulbs in the fall when it's time to plant them again.
The sweet smell of spring was uprooted last week by the landscapers from Facilities Operations. It happens every year at this time.
Tulips planted in front of Strong Hall in November are uprooted around the middle of April every year, said Mike F. Lang, project manager for Facilities Operations landscaping division. Lang said the plants don't look as good if left in place year after year.
"The tulip is our spring perennial," Lang said. "They are biannual plants that look good in the spring."
Facilities Operations buys about 1,400 tulips every November, he said.
A crew of four people is given the task of planting and uprooting the plants at the different times of the year.
Each individual flower costs the University of Kansas about 19 cents, bringing the total per planting to $266 a year.
The red and yellow tulips are purchased from either local or national businesses, Landscaping purchases the flowers from the lowest bidder. This year's tulips came from Burgundian, a national business out of New York.
All the tulips are shipped directly from the Netherlands, where they are grown.
When the plants are uprooted, they are thrown away, Lang said.
Some students and members of the community have expressed interest in the bulbs once the University is done. Lang said.
Others simply want the University to either sell the plants or find some other alternative for them.
Although the flowers are thrown away, there is nothing landscaping
"I'm a diver, and instead of throwing money away, get us a new pool," said Casey Topol, Mamaroneck, N.Y., senior. "At least put something stationary in or something that will last."
can do, Lang said.
"I would be more than happy to give them away, but I can't," Lang said. "These flowers were purchased with state money, so I can't give them away."
"They don't give any of us the authority to declare surplus," said
Steve Green, associate director of Facilities Operations management information. "We can't declare the status of state property."
Because the tulips are now gone for another year, the landscaping crew is concentrating on planting their summer flowers.
Petunias, begonias and other flowers will line the entrance to Strong Hall for the summer and most of the following fall semester.
Bulbs for those flowers can cost up to $3 apiece, Lang said.

According to its Web site easports.com, the company produces 27 titles that consistently sell more than one million copies a year. The yearly Madden football game is by far the most popular sports video game on the market. It sold more than five million copies in 2004, according to msn.com. The game is so popular that gamestop.com reported that it sold 1.3 million copies in its first week alone.
other to and er. cost
EA Sports declined to comment on the number of copies of "NCAA March Madness 2004" it had sold, but msn.com reported that the company has sold more than one million copies of "NCAA Football 2004."
According to its Web site, Electronic Arts is estimating revenue of $3.1 billion for this fiscal year.
Sports are a large part of the gaming business. They account for more than $2 billion, or 20 percent, of the $10 billion industry, said Tom Harlin, public relations manager of Nintendo of America. He attributed the high level of sales to the intensely loyal video game players, who tend to buy the yearly release of each game.
Gamers like to live vicariously through the games, Harlin said.
"Sports have become an integral part of people's lives, and yet there are only a few people that are able to play at either the collegiate or professional level," he said. "Video games allow people to not only simulate that game experience, but have fun with some unique and playful twists."
All good sports video games need to have licensing agreements with their respective leagues, he said. If a game isn't realistic, no one will buy it.
EA Sports recently reached an agreement with the Collegiate Licensing Company — which represents more than 200 colleges, universities, bowl games and conferences, as well as all NCAA Championships — for an
exclusive college football license. The company also has a non-exclusive license for college basketball.
The agreement allows EA Sports' games to include replicas of every stadium for both "NCAA Football 2005" and "NCAA March Madness 2005," and most mascots and cheerleaders can be seen on the sidelines.
Junior forward Christian Moody has seen the game and thinks the atmosphere and players match reality.
"My younger siblings play the game, and when I'm at home they'll call me upstairs and show me a replay of some fantastic play I just made," he said. "It's pretty neat to see yourself doing cool stuff in a
game like that."
The University of Kansas received $13,000 for "NCAA March Madness 2004," said Jim Marchionh, associate athletics director for external affairs. The University also received $40,000 for "NCAA Football 2004."
Cashing in
"Two-thirds of it goes to scholarships at the University, and the other third goes to the athletics department budget," Marchiony said.
The University has a licensing agreement with EA Sports, which allows the video game company to use Kansas' name, logo, mascot, team uniforms, player numbers, player attributes and the likenesses of Allen Fieldhouse and Memorial Stadium.
The money the University received was based on the number of video games sold. The other 322 schools involved received a similar amount of money, NCAA Director of

"I've known the people from EA Sports for a while now because they've helped to sponsor exhibition games and the Maui Classic," Self said. "They just called me up, and I did it for very minimal compensation."
Self declined to comment specifically, on the actual dollar amount, saying he was paid only for his time.
Oklahoma coach Kelvin Sampson appeared in "NCAA March Madness 2004," and Change Mariner, a business Web site, reported that he received a few thousand dollars for his role.

Self said his work for the game took about an hour and a half, but it was worth it because of the exposure Kansas received.
"I know that there are prospects out there that play the game and will notice," he said. "I'm sure there have been positive benefits for everyone involved because it's exposure for your school."

Oklahoma City, 10 years later
NATION
OKLAHOMA CITY — Children who lost their parents in the Oklahoma City bombing recited the names of the dead, and mourners gently laid bouquets on empty chairs symbolizing each victim yesterday as they observed the 10th anniversary of the nation's worst act of domestic terrorism.
In a church that served as a temporary morgue after the blast, more than 1,600 people remembered those who died with 168 seconds of silence starting at 9:02 a.m., the moment that the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building collapsed into a heap of desks, concrete, and bodies on April 19, 1995.
They also honored the survivors, the rescues and the
endurance of a damaged city that former President Clinton said "made us all Americans again."
"Oklahoma City changed us all. It broke our hearts and lifted our spirits and brought us together," said Clinton, who was in office on the sunny morning that Timothy McVeigh brought his bomb and hatred for the government to the city in a Ryder truck.
McVeigh was convicted of federal conspiracy and murder charges and executed on June 11,2001. Conspirator Terry Nichols is serving multiple life sentences after being convicted in federal and state court.
The Associated Press
Across the street at the Oklahoma City National Memorial, in the grassy field where the building once stood, 168 empty chairs were a solemn reminder of the carnage of a decade earlier.

Though he told other family members, Rundle hadn't told his father, stepmother or three of his seven siblings that he was gay before the announcement.
Last Friday, he sent an e-mail to most of his family members. He sent a letter to his father.
“It's given me a sort of buoyancy,” Rundle said. “After having worked through all the identity issues, I thought I was sort of flying free. But I didn't realize how much bigger flying free was.”

But not every student thought the pope's old age was the biggest surprise.
Ashley Johnson, Kansas City, Mo., sophomore, said she was surprised that the Cardinals had elected a German to be pope. She said she thought they would give the pope's seat back to an Italian Cardinal.
Bryan Witry, Milwaukee junior, also was surprised that a 78 year old was elected pope, but he said he was not surprised Ratzinger was elected because he served as Pope John Paul II's right-hand man. Since 1981, Benedict XVI served as John Paul II's head of the congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith.
Krische was surprised by the selection of an old pope, but he said Benedict XVI was in good health and good shape.
He said he considered Ratzinger to be next in line for hope because it was like the president- vice president situation.

The company recently paid between an estimated $300 million and $500 million to gain exclusive rights to NFL licensing, according to espn.com. EA Sports also has exclusive licensing deals for its NASCAR, soccer and golf games.
Pro athletes have the option to prohibit video games from using their identities. San Francisco Giants slugger Barry Bonds is not in a single baseball video game because he refuses to license his name.
Bonds has said he was not participating in Major League Baseball's group licensing agreement because he has been exploited and portrayed negatively in the past.
"I was raised to protect my family, keep my mouth shut and stay quiet," Bonds said in a recent press conference, according to his Web site, barrybonds.com. "I saw some of the things my dad went through personally, being so outgoing and doing things, and suddenly people turned their backs on him, and messed him over and all that stuff. That wasn't something I wanted in my life."
Despite Bonds' feelings, EA Sports had to do something to fill the role of one of the most recognizable players in baseball. In an effort to create a player who looked nothing like him, EA Sports used a strong, home run-hitting white player in "MVP Baseball 2004."
For its college games, EA Sports creates college players on a random basis. Davis said.
"EA has around 200 general public faces and body builds that are randomly generated," Davis said. "It spits out whatever it spits out, and there is a very generic element to the college individuals."
"The rules are designed to protect our student athletes."
Not every player in the college video games looks like he does in real life, but for the most part the players are similar.
Davis said it was becoming more of a challenge to prohibit, though, because EA graphics were so advanced that it was difficult to differentiate between an actual NCAA game and a video game.
Players across the countrv disagree.
"The rules are designed to protect our student athletes," he said. "We haven't changed anything yet, because we made it very clear that you shouldn't be able to recognize the personalities through appearances, and so far that hasn't happened."
For example, in "March Madness 2003," Kansas' starting power forward with the number 42, who was supposed to be Jeff Graves, was white. In this year's version, every Jayhawk's weight, height and skin color is similar to his actual appearance.
The NCAA has not received any individual complaints about video games violating the rights of student athletes. Davis said.
When video games began creating college games, NCAA bylaws clearly stated that game producers were not allowed to use student names or likenesses. The use of jersey numbers is allowed because they are technically property of the University.
Change in sight?
Former college athletes such as Michigan State's Mateen Cleaves and Syracuse's Carmelo Anthony have said they wanted a piece of their college memorabilia earnings, according to espn.com.
Peter Davis NCAA director of alliances
Last yea; Kansas senior guard Keith Langford wrote a newspaper column saying he wanted part of the action.
“If a school makes money off a player's jersey, he or she should get a cut of it,” Langford wrote in The University Daily Kansan. “No one is asking for an extra couple thousand dollars, but at damn-near a quarter million dollars in revenue being made, 16 people can't get a little extra allowance?”
But payment is out of the question until student athletes' likenesses are so realistic that, in effect, EA Sports would be breaking the licensing regulations by using them. Davis said.
Even Moody, who said he loved watching people use him in the game, said players should be getting money from video game companies.
"That will only change when you can tell exactly who each player is, like in pro games," he said. "That may be 10 years off. It could be two days off for all I know."
Simien thinks that day is coming. He said that changing the appearance of a few individuals means nothing, and that video games should change all athletes' appearances if they don't have permission to use their likenesses.
"On one hand it's nice to see people wearing your jersey or seeing yourself in a video game," Simien said. "On the other hand, it would certainly be nice to get a little money for it."s

Opinions differ on student athletes' lack of compensation for the use of their likenesses in college sports video games.

Preliminary trial waived in BTK case
BY ROXANA HEGEMAN THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WICHITA — For decades since the strangulation deaths of his parents and two younger siblings, Charlie Otero futilely has sought answers to why his family was murdered.
Now, 31 years after their deaths, Otero and other family members of the BTK killer's 10 victims will have to wait longer for answers.
The man charged in the BTK serial killings waived his right to a preliminary hearing yesterday, an acknowledgment that the state has enough evidence to go to trial. That means prosecutors will not have to publicly reveal any of their case against Dennis Rader until trial.
Rader, formerly a city ordinance enforcement officer for suburban Park City, was arrested Feb. 25 and is charged with 10 counts of first-degree murder. Rader, 60, will enter a plea at his arraignment, set for May 3.
Otero said in a phone interview from his home in Albuquerque, N.M., that he was "extremely disappointed" that he would have to wait to hear the evidence in the case.
On Jan. 15, 1974, the three surviving children of Joseph and Julie Otero came home from school to find their parents and two other siblings, Josephine, 11, and Joseph II, 9, dead at the family's Wichita home.
Otero said he was anticipating one day testifying against Rader.
ing him face to face," said Otero, who was 15 when he found his parents' bound bodies in their bedroom in 1974. Police told him later that his brother and sister were also killed.
"I am looking forward to see-
The strangulation of Otero's four family members were the earliest deaths claimed by the killer who nicknamed himself BTK, for "Bind, Torture, Kill."
The BTK strangler had been suspected of eight torture deaths beginning in 1974, but since Rader's arrest authorities have linked two more victims to the serial killer. Prosecutors can't seek the death penalty because the crimes were committed before 1994, when Kansas passed its capital punishment law.
Prosecutors presented no evidence yesterday against Rader.
who was neatly dressed in a gray suit and wearing leg restraints. In a preliminary hearing, prosecutors need only to prove that they have enough evidence to show probabie cause that a crime was committed and that the defendant did it.
District Attorney Nola Foulston told reporters: "Of course there is a certain type of disappointment because it prolongs the agony for the public to know. And as long as the public doesn't know, it places us in a position where we are out here telling you, I'm sorry, I can't tell you."
Osburn said after the hearing that Rader, who is cooperating with his attorneys, would plead not guilty and request a jury trial at his arraignment. An arraignment is normally held right after a preliminary hearing, but Osburn said he asked it be continued to give the defense more time to prepare.
Osburn said he did not anticipate a plea bargain. Defense attorneys have not decided about a change of venue for the trial.
In Topeka yesterday, Gov Kathleen Sebelius proposed adding nearly $405,000 to the state budget to cover costs associated with Rader's defense.
The money would allow the state Board of Indigents Defense Services to hire another attorney, paralegal and investigator to help the three Sedgwick County public defenders handling Rader's case. Also, the extra money would allow Rader's team to hire expert witnesses.

Sprint introduces live TV for phones
OVERLAND PARK — Sprint Corp. began broadcasting live television on its wireless telephone network yesterday, making the same Fox News Channel that's on cable and satellite — Bill O'Reilly, Sean Hannity and commercials included — available to Sprint PCS customers.
Like a prayer
The broadcast of 15 frames per second is the first time a cell phone has been able to display video of a quality similar to that of a regular television, said Roger Entner, a research analyst and vice president of Ovum, a technology research firm. A regular TV broadcast displays 30 frames each second.
Both Sprint and Verizon Wireless already offer broadcast video clips on their phones. The "Sprint TV" service includes clips from more than two dozen networks, including NBC News and the Discovery Channel.

When Hoch Auditoria, now Budig Hall, was home to performing arts at the University of Kansas, performers had to dress in Murphy Hall and then walk up the hill to perform.
In the summertime, when they got to the performance hall, temperatures would reach 100 degrees. With no air conditioning, they would open the doors to allow in air, also allowing in noise from traffic and people on the street.
With no dressing rooms, air conditioning or any extra backstage area for production plus bad acoustics, Hoch did not meet the needs for the performing arts. Even with these conditions people filled the auditorium that held almost 3,000. According to the book "The Lied Center of Kansas: A History of the Lied Center and Concert Series at the University of Kansas," the community desired these cultural experiences. It just needed a more suitable place to experience the arts.
Discussions sparked in the 1960s about the need for a performance hall to replace Hoch, but more serious plans were not developed until the 1990s. Plans were finally pushed forward by the destruction of Hoch Auditoria after a fire in 1991.
In 1923 Ernst Lied began his freshman year at the University of Kansas. After two years, he transferred to the University of Nebraska, but his experience at the University lasted with him until his death in 1980. He became a multi-millionaire through real estate and the Lied Foundation gave money for the Lied Center in Lawrence, but also for a Lied Center in Omaha, Neb., where Lied lived after his two years at the University.
The Lied Foundation donated $10 million to the development of Lied Center, the biggest contribution toward the project and one of the largest monetary donations in the University's history. The University donated most of the remaining funds with smaller donations made by local companies and individuals.
"The venue has provided the opportunity to do a lot more," Van Leer said.

Obesity problem less than expected
CHICAGO — Being overweight is nowhere near as big a killer as the government thought, ranking No. 7 instead of No. 2 among the nation's leading preventable causes of death, according to a startling new calculation from the CDC.
NATION
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimated yesterday that packing on too many pounds accounts for 25,814 deaths a year in the United States. As recently as January, the CDC came up with an estimate 14 times higher: 365,000 deaths.
The new analysis found that obesity — being extremely overweight — is indisputably lethal. But like several recent smaller studies, it found that people who are modestly overweight actually have a lower risk of death than those of normal weight.
The study — an analysis of mortality rates and body-mass index, or BMI — was published today in the Journal of the American Medical Association. The Associated Press

Protest postpones ambassador vote
WASHINGTON — John Bolton's nomination as U.N. ambassador suffered an unexpected setback yesterday when the Republican-controlled Senate Foreign Relations Committee scrapped plans for a vote in favor of a fresh look at allegations of unbecoming conduct.
No date was set for a vote, but a delay of at least two weeks seems likely while the committee looks into fresh allegations, including those of a Dallas businesswoman who says Bolton berated her at an international conference a decade ago.
Some Democrats also bluntly questioned Bolton's veracity.
The decision to postpone a vote closed a rancorous session in which Republicans first sought to push Bolton through the Foreign Relations Committee and Democrats resisted.

Lighten burden on wallet environment with Hybrids
AUSTIN CASTER acaster@hansan.com

If you want a reason why gas prices have increased to
A tear almost welled up in my eye as I saw the meter on my gas pump reach more than $22. What makes it so sad is that I drive a four-cylinder Ford Escort. I remember a time when gas was 99 cents a gallon.
more than $2 a gallon recently, consider the number the sport utility vehicles on not only the streets of Lawrence, but throughout the United States. Hybrids might not impress the girl you want to date, but they are the clear choice for a fuller wallet and cleaner environment.
Hybrid cars use two power sources: an internal combustion engine and an electric motor.
According to gm.com, the engine charges the battery, which reduces the load of the engine causing a "lower gas mileage and fewer emissions.
To put it mildly, SUVs don't get great gas mileage. According to Ford Motor Company's Web site, most SUVs average 20 miles per gallon. The faster Americans burn through fuel, the more prices will increase.
Benefits of SUVs, however, are apparent. They have the highest safety ratings and the most cargo space. If you have three or four children and

think this is a stereotype, count the number of SUVs in any fraternity, sorority or residence hall parking lot on campus. The keeping-up-with-the-Jones' syndrome has gone too far.

ried about increasing gas prices as those of us who live paycheck-to-paycheck, but the future of the environment is something everyone should consider.
With gas prices skyrocketing, Hybrid vehicles save cash and keep the environment cleaner. They're especially a good option compared to sport utility vehicles, which guzzie gas.
The Hybrid Toyota Prius averages about 48 mpg, according to toyota.com. By investing in a Hybrid, drivers would conserve more gas throughout time and save money in the process. If con-

So SUVs are useful, but what I don't understand is why 20-year-olds who have no children and nothing to haul need one. These SUV owners waste gas just to keep up with a trend. If you
sumers use less gas, then prices will be cheaper, for everyone. It's simple supply and demand.
And for those of you who can't muster up the will power to separate yourself from the SUV trend, Hybrid SUVs have arrived. Though they are not as fuel-efficient as the Prius, the Ford Hybrid Escape can reach an average of 36 mpg.
So trade in that clunky old SUV and help out the environment along with your bank account. Your friends are going to start
making fun of you if you keep driving a 2004 model anyway.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Column's message regarding Shiavo case shouldn't be missed
I understand the timeliness of Devin Sikes' recent column, which was published on Monday, was compromised by Student Senate election coverage, but I was nonetheless glad to see coverage in The University Daily Kansan on jurisprudence and the bounds of moral thinking. Sikes asserts that the U.S. legal system, despite its deficiencies, is "the best system to ensure that citizens are equally protected." Obviously, Sikes understands the founding fathers' ideals of justice and equality. His words, even in the aftermath of Mrs. Schiavo's passing, still carry instructive value.
Next week, the U.S. Senate will vote on the "nuclear option" of judicial review. If it passes, the Senate majority will have the prerogative to place extremist judges that serve their interests into federal seats. Some of these nominees have no experience as judges, have worked to undermine environmental protections, and/or have threatened civil liberties and women's rights.
Readers of the Kansan should take their cues from Sikes' moderation and careful appraisal of equality. They should visit MoveOnPAC.org to learn more about the legal system that affects their lives. If they feel concerned about the consequences of radical change to the checks and balances of our legal system, they should call their senators now.

Permit price increase positive for campus parking situation
Students, faculty, and staff are upset about the Parking Department's increase in parking prices. Those who drive to campus are understandably miffed at the prospect of paying more and wonder if they are really getting
Higher prices benefit the on-campus parkers. With higher prices, fewer people will buy permits. Those who buy permits will see more value because there will be more available parking spots. Also, part of the money from permits will go toward improving existing lots and creating more lots.
value for that $140 to $235 they must pay next year for parking permits.
In spite of this, I support the parking price increase. This seems counterintuitive, but allow me to explain why.
Higher prices benefit the University. Parking is a luxury when most students and faculty could use public transportation, walk or bike. Part of the money paid for this luxury will go toward campus improvement projects that benefit everyone, not just drivers. Higher prices may also mean less traffic on campus, which improves student safety.
There are also big-picture benefits. If higher prices cut down on those who drive to campus, then that would indicates that students are polluting less. If it means that more students take public transportation, then those systems would benefit from increased revenue. If more students walk and bike as alternatives to driving, then they would benefit from the additional exercise. Finally, if fewer people drive to class, that means the University has cut down on the average gasoline consumption of its students and faculty. This means that we are slowing our use of a nonrenewable energy source, and lessening our financial support of unstable OPEC countries including Iran and Saudi Arabia.
So quit complaining and pony up the cash, ride your bike or rent an apartment closer to campus.

Sudanese genocide tests humanity of everyone
Today, 1,000 Sudanese people will die because of forced starvation and military slaughter. In a genocide that may have already claimed up to 400,000 lives, the government-supported Janjaweed militia continues to slaughter black Africans.
MARK LYDA

This is not a conflict about
religion or ethnicity. It's about power: The Sudanese government is attempting to create a tyrannical state and it sees black Africans' tribal affiliations and moderate Islamic practices as a threat to its dominance.
In order to blur tribal identities and command fearful loyalty, Janjaweed has forced people from different tribes to rape each other, destroyed crops and cut off food supplies on a massive scale. This is in addition to tens of thousands of brutal military killings.
When a crisis of this magnitude occurs any-
When a crisis of this kind where in the world, it tests the dignity of humanity. We must stand with courage against genocide. We must not stand idly by as witnesses.
But how can we help? How can we, on a college campus in the middle of the continental United States, effect change halfway around the globe?
History will remember the way in which our generation responds to the first — and, God willing, last — genocide of the 21st century.

The Sudanese government is murdering hundreds of thousands in its genocide. It's up to us as citizens of the world to take action and speak out for human rights so that this attrocity does not continue.
It may seem impossible, but the opportunities are boundless. Several student groups, including Amnesty International, UNICEF and Circle K, plan programming such as benefit concerts, letter-writing campaigns and fundraisers for humanitarian relief.

A recent news story that has garnered a great deal of attention is the Terri Schiavo debate. It is a tragic situation in which Schiavo basically starved to death in a semi-vegetative state. This story inspired strong feelings and fervent debate.

I challenge religious groups to stand up and speak out against this modern-day Holocaust. I challenge our elected officials to take a stand as well. I challenge our Student Senate coalitions to get involved in the Call to Action Project. And I challenge each and

THE UNITED NATIONS CEREMONY FOR THE FREEDOM OF HUMAN SPECIES WAS CELEBRATED IN NEW YORK, USA, ON MARCH 26, 1983.
The Lied Role
West Campus' Lied Center satisfies Lawrence's need for arts, entertainment and culture
Johann Michael Camat takes the Lied Center stage as "The Engineer" in "Miss Saigon". As described in a program flier, "Miss Saigon" is "the gripping story of two young lovers torn apart by the fortunes of destiny and held together by a burning passion and the fate of a small child." RIGHT ABOVE LEFT TO RIGHT Christina Dailey, wardrobe/wigs supervisor, combs one of six wigs used in production for the "American Dream" scene in Miss Saigon. Jay McManigan, production stage manager, takes care of letting the Lied Center crowd know the show is about to begin and to take their seats. Rachel Francis, Kansas City, Kan., senior, hangs up a newly injured costume in the wardrobe closet. Each actor, 35 altogether, has four to eight costumes that need to be ironed and mended. John Gaczewski, head sound engineer for the Miss Saigon tour, mans the sound board and keeps track of the quality and level of sound during the show.

world-class entertainment is
available here in Lawrence. Since 1993, the Lied Center has hosted an array of entertainment that enriches the cultural diversity that Lawrence has come to know.
"You don't need to go to New York or the West Coast. You've got it here." Tim Van Leer, executive director of the Lied Center, said about the entertainment opportunities available to the community.
The Lied Center, which is in its eleventh sea
The Lied Center, win son, has six series of entertainment that program year-round for the Lawrence community. Series include a concert series, which has been a part of the University of Kansas since 1903.

Other series include the Swarthout Chamber Series, New Direction Series, Family Series, Broadway Series and the World Series.
"Each series provides a variety of purposes." Van Leer said.
The Broadway series has brought shows such as "Stomp," "Cats," "Rent" and most recently, "Miss Saigon," which had two shows on April 5 and
Broadway-caliber performances are not the only sources of entertainment for the Lied Center. It is a part of the School of Fine Arts and the school uses the Lied Center for all types of entertainment. The University Dance Company performs dance recitals and bands from the school give concerts throughout the year.
"The Lied Center is an integral part of retention of students," Van Leer said, pointing to the quality of life that the Lied Center adds to the community. Various organizations on campus and the city of Lawrence also rent the center. The organizations use the center for commencement ceremonies by local high schools and by professional schools on campus. The business school hosted Ann Coulter on March 29 and the Student Lecture Series will host CNN anchorman Anderson Cooper on April 25.
"It offers you a chance to see things you wouldn't otherwise be able to afford or have access to in the middle of Kansas," said Shannon Stewart, Lee's Summit sophomore, who works backstage in the Lied Center where about 100 student technicians are employed.
Throughout the course of a year, about 100-125 performances take place at the Lied Center. In association with the actual performances the staff considers days for production that include set-up and tear down of sets and rehearsals.
The staff needed three days for the preparation of the set of "Miss Saigon." The Lied Center is in use for 275-300 days of the year, Van Leer said.
In booking events for the Lied Center, Van Leer and Fred Pawlicki and Karen Lane Christilles, associate directors, have a network of artists and representatives that they keep in contact with to determine which performances to provide for the students and community.
They look at the artists they want, work with them on dates and times and provide a context to provide an educational experience.
They create a package of events and then they create a contract for the performances.
"We bring artists and audiences together...and bring what we feel is important for students and the community." Van Leer said.
Before the Lied Center was built, there was no multi-purpose performance center, and for years there had been need for a contemporary space, Van Leer said.

In-state rivals Kansas and Wichita State face off with season series lead and losing streak at stak

KANSAN SPORTWRITER
Entering tonight's contest against Wichita State, Kansas is looking for a way out of its current four-game losing streak.
The Jayhawks (24-18, 3-9 Big 12 Conference) are fresh off of their first series sweep defeat at the hands of No. 12 Baylor last weekend.
The Wichita State Shockers (31-11, 6-3 Missouri Valley Conference), on the other hand, just picked up a series victory, taking two of three games from Missouri Valley opponent Northern Iowa last weekend.
Tonight's match-up will mark the third meeting of the year between the in-state rivals. The series is tied at one game apiece, but that will all change tonight.
"It's a big game," senior catcher Sean Richardson said. "We lost our last four in a row, so we've got to come out against Wichita State ready to compete and battle."
The Jayhawks have been outscored 29-9 during the current skid and are looking for that offensive power that they carried earlier in the season.
Before the series against Baylor, Kansas consistently kept its batting average at .300 or better. After being swept by Baylor, however, Kansas dropped to .295 as a team.
The majority of Kansas batters suffered during the series, but not all. Junior first baseman Jared Schweitzer went 3-6 and scored twice in the two games he played. Schweitzer is hitting .338 and will enter tonight's game on an 11-game hitting streak. He is 2-4 with an RBI against Wichita State this year.
Junior outfielder Gus Milner tied up the close game in the series finale against Baylor on Sunday when he hit his team-leading seventh home run.
Milner is hitting .331 and has 51 RBI on the season. He is 5-8 and has six RBI and four runs scored against the Shockers this year.
Richardson hit in the RBI that gave Kansas its only lead of the Baylor series during game three. He is batting .322 and has 28 RBI. Against Wichita State, Richardson is 2-8 with two runs scored.
Overall, Kansas batters didn't fare well against Baylor pitching.
["Baylor] pitched well. I'll give them credit. They are a good team." Richardson said.
Tonight's game will feature two teams with solid pitching and a lopsided ability to score. In their first two meetings, the Shockers have narrowly outlift the Hawkways, 23-21.
Shocker first baseman Derek Schermhorn snapped a 34-game hit streak, in their game against Northern Iowa Sunday.
Muitch is .307 at the plate and leads the Shockers with six home runs this season.
The sophomore is hitting .373 and leads the team with 37 RBI His streak marked the second-longest in Shocker baseball history. Against Kansas, Schermerhorn is 5-8 with an RBI and a run scored this year.
Senior catcher Joe Mucch went 5-11 with three RBI last weekend against the Panthers. Muich continued to do damage against the Jayhawks, going 5-8 with one RBI and two runs scored against Kansas last weekend.
On the mound, Kansas will change its strategy from the previous two match-ups. In both games, coach Ritch Price and his staff gave the younger and less experienced pitchers considerable playing time.
"We're actually going to change our rotation next weekend." Price said.
Tonight, however, left-hander Mike Zagurski (4-4) will pitch against Wichita State. The senior, who has a 4.69 ERA, is the usual Friday night starter, but because of changes being made in the weekend rotation, Zagurski will be available for tonight.

Greene stays clean
Doping scandal tarnishes his competitors
When Maurice Greene walks into Memorial Stadium Saturday to compete in the Kansas Relays, he'll have a crowd behind him. Not because of his roots in Kansas City, Kan. Not because of his dominance at the Kansas Relays in the past. In the midst of BALCO accusations and steroid scandals, Maurice Greene is the easiest man to root for. In the witch hunt known as the BALCO trials, Greene's name has been cleared.
That cannot be said of world-record holder Tim Montgomery. Greene accomplished what he

set out to do: Claim the title of the world's fastest man. Montgomery beat Greene's record on September 14, 2002 in Paris, France.
"I am the fastest man to ever run the 100 meters," Montgomery said after the race.
What he failed to mention were his meetings two years earlier with BALCO president Victor Conte, who now drops names to share the guillotine. Montgomery was a product of Conte's campaign to build the world's fastest man. Whether Montgomery knew he was on
THG, a substance banned from sports, should not be in question.
In a period of sports where baseball elites are considering attaching asterisks to the records of such names as Mark McGwire, Sammy Sosa and Barry Bonds, the same system can be applied to track. Placing an asterisk next to a name simply exposes the corruption within a sport.
An asterisk does more than place the blame on the crooked. It justifies the athletes who dominated the sport before such corruption. The records of Babe Ruth and Willie Mays could be restored. And Maurice Greene should be next.
There's no doubt that when Montgomery crossed that finish line in Paris, he received help from the BALCO lab. In
the next Guinness World Records, an asterisk needs to be placed next to Montgomery's name.
Greene earned the title of world's fastest man. He wept when he watched Donovan Bailey win the race at the 1996 Olympic games that should have been his for the taking. He trained with H.S.I., a sports management company, created by attorney Emmanuel Hudson. Originally derived from "Hudson Sports Incorporated," the phrase blended into the term, "Handling Speed Intelligently."
With training partners such as Ato Boldon and Jon Drummonds, Greene whittled down the world record by five-tenths of a second.

Top 25 guard gives his word
Lewis, a 6-foot-5, 190-pound small forward and shooting guard from Archbishop Rummel High School in Metairie, La., told rivals.com that he had committed to the Lavhawks.
Lewis is the 21st-ranked player at his position for the class of 2006, according to the recruiting Web site. He averaged 26.5 points per game, along with eight rebounds as a junior.
The Kansas men's basketball team received a verbal commitment from Dwight Lewis yesterday.
Lewis, who will be a high school senior next fall, had scheduled visits with Kansas next weekend and with Oklahoma during the first weekend in May before committing to Kansas yesterday. Lewis received scholarship offers from Kansas, as well as Texas, Baylor, Mississippi, Oklahoma and Texas A&M.

Going into the Kansas Relays, meet director Tim Weaver and his staff have 6,000 admission buttons prepared for pre-purchase.
They've already sold out of the first batch of badges, ordered 6,000 more and contemplated ordering a third batch until Weaver realized they wouldn't arrive in time. Overall, the Relays have 12,000 admission buttons and 28,000 admission tickets ready for the weekend.
What happens if all are sold out?
"I think that would be a great
problem to have," Weaver said.
While perhaps far-fetched, it may not be entirely unrealistic. Weaver said that last season only a "nominal" amount of tickets were sold before the day of the event. As always, KU students are admitted to the Relays for free with their KUIDs.
Last season, based primarily on walk-up sales, almost 18,000 people came out. Weaver hoped that strong pre-sales and the Gold Zone would drive attendance much higher, he said.
The Gold Zone will take place between 2 and 5 p.m. on Saturday.

Junior linebacker Nick Reid returns an interception during the spring game Saturday at Memorial Stadium. Reid scored a touchdown off the interception and also had six tackles during the scrimmage.
Defense shows early promise
BY RYAN COLAIANNI

KANSAN SPORTSWRIVER
While parts of the offense struggled during Saturday's spring game, the Kansas football team's defense appeared to be just as strong as it was last season.
The defense had six interceptions, including two by freshman cornerback Agib Talib.
Coach Mark Mangino said throughout spring practices that the defense was ahead of the offense, and that observation was consistent with past spring practices he has been a part of.
The Jayhawks tout a talented group of junior linebackers in Nick Reid, Banks Floodman and Kevin Kane. Reid was a first-team all Big 12 selection by the Associated Press last season as he racked up 109 tackles.
The three have been playing with each other since 2002 and are familiar with each other's style of play.
"It all starts with how well you know who you are playing with, and that is only going to make a defense better." Floodman said.
Floodman and Reid both recorded interceptions in the spring game last weekend while Kane led the blue team with eight tackles.
"We are becoming really sharp on our assignments and execution on the defensive side of the ball," Mangino said at the spring game. "We now have a little bit of depth on defense. There are several kids playing on that white defense today that you will see on the field this fall playing a lot for us."

Chiefs reach agreement with restricted free agent receiver
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The Kansas City Chiefs agreed to terms on a one-year contract with wide receiver Marc Boeriger yesterday.
The restricted free agent has played in 31 games with Kansas City in three seasons, starting in two, with 31 receptions for 578 yards and eight touchdowns.
He missed all of the 2004 season after tearing the ACL in his right knee in a preseason game against Cleveland.
In 2002, Boerengt tied the NFL record for longest pass play with a 99-yard touchdown catch against San Diego at Arrowhead Stadium. — The Associated Press

Gruber to run at Relays
PROFILE
BY PATRICK SHEHAN
pshehan@kansan.com
KANSAN SWIPETER
After graduating from the University of Kansas, it's acceptable for some students to move back home. Some get internships. For cross country runner Charlie Gruber, graduation meant it was time to compete in the Olympic games.
Gruber graduated in 2002 after leaving his mark on the record books. He won the mile at the Kansas Relays four times and was the national collegiate cross country champion. Along with credentials, Gruber's personality warrants more than just respect.
"Charlie's one of the nicest people you'll ever meet." Kansas Relays director Tim Weaver said.
Gruber will compete in the Gold Zone at this weekend's Kansas Relays. The Gold Zone will feature Olympic champions and world record holders. Before then, Gruber will visit Central Junior High School students.
Eight months ago he was on the USA Olympic team in Athens. Gruber became the first athlete under coach Stanley Redwine to represent the United States at the Olympic games.
"I didn't run as well as I have wanted to." Gruber said. "But it's a pretty meaningful experience to represent your country on sport's biggest stage. It's felt neat to be on a team bigger than just athletics — different countries, and being around the village with people from literally all parts of the world."
Life after the Olympic games has been more calm, but it won't be for long. Gruber plans to compete in the World Championships in Helsinki, Finland, and then marry his fiancée.
"I was working on my base in the fall, with longer distances," Gruber said. "Now me and my coach are trying to transition towards more speed or track-oriented type of things."
"I'm just going to go out and focus on winning the race," Gruber said. "When I focus on winning and competing I tend to do better and run faster. There will be high enough competition that if you win you should run under four minutes."
One of Gruber's goals is to break Jim Ryun's record and become the fastest Kansas alumnus to run the 1500 meter race. Ryun's time of 3.33.1 still stands in the top ten men's 1,500 meter race times in history. Gruber ran a 3.34.7 last year. Gruber's training partner, Benson Chesang, and teammate Jeremy Mims broke two of Ryun's long-standing
"I'm happy to see younger guys making their own tradition. Not only embrace old KU tradition but also writing our own." Gruber said.
records earlier this year. Chesang broke Ryun's 5,000 meter run time, and Mims broke Ryun's 800 meter run time.
Gruber said he also planned to break the four-minute mile on Saturday.
The Denver native said it was good to compete in Memorial Stadium.
Competing in the Gold Zone on Saturday won't be a big departure from home for Gruber. He still trains in Lawrence with Redwine and other
"I still consider it my home track," he said. "It's neat to come back with the old teammates and the alumni, and previous generations of the Jayhawk track family. It's just so fun to be around the new generation as well."
Gruber jumped on the Gold Zone bandwagon with more than 30 other Olympic athletes. He said the Gold Zone concept was unique for fans and athletes.
"It will be one of their few chances to see the best athletes in the world, and one of the few times they'll be in Lawrence."

KENTUCKY DERBY

But there's a side to Bailey that most people haven't seen: recovering alcoholic.
"I had hit bottom. My descent into alcoholism had been slow, but now it felt as though I was lying at the bottom of the ocean, searching for a ray of light that would lead me to the surface." Bailey wrote in his autobiography, "Against the Odds: Riding for My Life."
NEW YORK — Jerry Bailey is one of racing's most accomplished jockeys, a two-time Kentucky Derby winner, a seven-time Eclipse Award winner as the nation's top rider and the winner of a record 14 Breeders' Cup races.
The 47-year-old Bailey decided the time was right to detail his battle that threatened his career, his marriage and even his life in the 1980s.
Bailey's book will be released Wednesday, less than three weeks before the Hall of Fame rider attempts to win the Kentucky Derby aboard top contender High Fly.
"I wrote it primarily for people who feel like they don't fit in, for the addictive person who feels he has to do something to fit into the mainstream," he said.
The book also details Bailey's on-track achievements, with three chapters devoted to Cigar, the two-time Horse of the Year he guided to a record-equaling 16 victories in a row.
Bailey also writes about winning the Derby with Sea Hero and Grindstone, his two Preamble victories and his two Belmont Stakes wins.

Substitute catcher boosts KC
BY DOUG TUCKER
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Game-winning hits are hard to come by for journeymen catchers who shuffle around from team to team and only rarely get to play.
For Alberto Castillo, there was that base-loaded single with the New York Mets eight years ago. And now there's solo homer with two outs in the ninth inning yesterday that lifted the Kansas City Royals past the Cleveland Indians 6-5.
"I did it one time in 1997 with the Mets," said Castillo, who's spent time with six different clubs since breaking into the majors in 1995. "It was a great feeling. What can I say? It's a great feeling."
Castillo, subbing for slumping John Buck, had only 10 career homers in 904 at-bats when he got the 3-2 fastball he expected from Arthur Rhodes (1-1), the fifth Cleveland pitcher. He also had two singles, scored three runs and got his first stolen base since 2001.
Manager Tony Pena, whose Royals are 3-0 when Castillo catches, told him Monday that he would start.
"It's nice to get up in the morning, and you think of the fact you're playing that day," Castillo said. "I was a happy man last night."
The Indians and Royals both stranded 13 runners. The Royals, who also used five pitchers and won for just the second time in eight home games, had 15 hits. Cleveland, which loaded the bases twice but failed to score, had 14.
"Runners left on base, that's the story of the game," Cleveland manager Eric Wedge said. "Guys are swinging the bats better and we created many opportunities. You'd think we could scratch out at least one (hit) here or there."
Mike MacDougal (1-0) pitched one inning for Kansas City.
Cleveland loaded the bases with no outs in the fifth and eighth innings but didn't score. Ben Broussard hit into a forceout at the plate in the fifth, and second baseman Ruben Gotay threw out Victor Martinez at the plate following Aaron Boone' popup into shallow right. In the eighth. Ronnie Belliard and Martinez struck out, and Travis Hafner grounded out.
"As a hitter, those are situations you want to be in," Hafner said. "That's when you can do your damage as a hitter. My last two at-bats, I had runners on base. We didn't get it done. You might come out tomorrow and score 13 or 14."

St. Louis Cardinals' Matt Morris throws in the first inning against the Pittsburgh Pirates yesterday in Pittsburgh, Pa. This is his first start since returning from off-season shoulder surgery. Morris picked up the victory as the Cardinals beat the Pirates, 7-1.
Pittsburgh hospitable to Cardinals
BY ALAN ROBINSON THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
PITTSBURGH, Pa. — Matt Morris' successful return made for another easy St. Louis Cardinals victory in their home away from home.
Morris breezed in his first start since offseason shoulder surgery, limiting the Pirates to one run and four hits in six innings last night and leading the Cardinals to a 7-1 victory and a two-game sweep in Pittsburgh.
Jim Edmonds hit a home run for the second consecutive night and Larry Walker and Albert Pujols each drove in two runs as the Cardinals outscored the Pirates 18-2 in the series. The Pirates' 4-10 start, including a 1-6 home record, is
their worst since they were 4-13 in 1995.
At least there's one team that knows how to win in PNC Park. The Cardinals are 27-9 there since the ballpark opened in 2001, including sweeps of four and three games last season.
"It was a real good day for us," manager Tony La Russa said.
Aren't they almost always for the Cardinals in Pittsburgh?
The right-hander needed only 71 pitches — 14 fewer than his planned limit — while striking out seven and walking one. The Pirates' only run
Morris (1-0), a 15-game winner despite pitching with severe shoulder pain last season, couldn't have asked for a much better debut following two minor league rehabilitation starts.
came on Daryle Ward's home run, his second, leading off the second.
"I was anxious and nervous for today, but I'm happy now," said Morris, who returned weeks earlier than initially projected after he had surgery in November. "As the game went on, I was able to get comfortable and put the ball where I wanted to, which is a plus. Coming off an injury, sometimes you start to fade away."
The Cardinals helped Morris with a four-run second inning, following up their nine-run ninth during their 11-1 rout Monday. They didn't need much help against Josh Fogg (1-1), who is 1-7 against them with seven consecutive losses, but got plenty from a sloppy Pirates defense.

WOMEN'S GOLF
All-American team claims three Hawks
Three members of the women's golf team were among 37 student athletes selected to the 2005 academic all-Big 12 Team yesterday.
Juniors Chelsey Pryor and Meredith Winkelmann and sophomore Amanda Costner were named to the first team.
Pryor, Winkelmann and Costner all earned a 4.00 grade point average.
Pryor is a communications studies major and has competed in each of the Jayhawks' five tournaments this spring.
She is second on the team, with a 78.87 stroke average. This marks the second time she has been named to the first team.
Winkelmann, who is majoring in business administration is also a second-time selec tion.
She has participated in four tournaments so far this semes ter.
Costner gained first-team honors for the first time in her career.
- Costner is majoring in applied behavioral science, and leads the Jayhawks with a 76.80 stroke average this spring.
She recently took first place at the Lady Boilermaker Invitational, on April 10, winning the tournament by three shots.
To qualify for the academic all-Big 12 team, student-athletes must maintain a 3.00 GPA or higher, either cumulative or the two previous semesters combined, and must have participated in 60 percent of her team's scheduled contests.
Freshmen and transfers are not eligible in their first year of academic residence.
Senior student athletes who have participated for a minimum of two years and meet all the criteria but percent of participation are also eligible.

Weaver has high expectations that attendance will swell by the end of the Gold Zone time.
What Weaver calls a "revolutionary change" has officials at USA Track and Field buzzing as well. Michael Cain of USA Track and Field, and Weaver's college roommate, said that this had created quite a buzz with track squads across the country.
"Best idea they have had since the Relays started," Cain said.
Charlie Gruber is returning to compete in his fifth Kansas Relays, this time as part of the Gold Zone. He's excited to come back to what he still considers his home track.
This year's presentation gives fans so many more reasons to come out to the Relays, he said.
"I think it's a great idea. I think it's going to be really super to get all the elite athletes from the 'premiere' events in a three-hour block," Gruber said.
Gruber said he thought this format would give the Relays a greater chance to compete with the most popular sports, such as football and basketball, and also with entertainment such as movies. That's how one of Weaver's main goals
"This is one of their few chances to see some of the best athletes in the world, not just the U.S. It truly has a world stage. This is one of the few times they'll be in Lawrence," Gruber said.
The Relays take place Thursday through Saturday, with events beginning at 11 a.m. Thursday and 8 a.m. Friday and Saturday. Tickets for non-students are good for the entire weekend and are $10 for adults and $5 for children and seniors. There is also a family pack that offers admission to two adults and two children for $20.
A full schedule of meet events will appear in Thursday's University Daily Kansan.

"It's not to do what Wichita did to us last week when they ran Pelfrey out there. It has no intention of that," Price said. The Jayhawks faced the Shockers' ace starter, Mike Pelfrey, last Wednesday in Wichita.
Sophomore right-hander Kyle Touchatt (3-0, 2.19 ERA) is the scheduled starter tonight for the Shockers.
But tonight's match-up is not based on old news. Kansas knows that the losing streak must end here.
"I haven't given up and I know the rest of the team hasn't given up, so we're going to come out here pretty pumped up." Richardson said. "We're going to beat the snot out of the Shockers."
Chicago Cubs first baseman Derrek Lee (25) and catcher Michael Barrett (8) congratulate each other after the Cubs defeated the Cincinnati Reds 7-1 yesterday in Cincinnati. Lee and Barrett both hit home runs in the game.

Defense
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B
Mangino brought in a talented group of junior college players in defensive tackle Wayne Wilder and linebacker Eric Washington.
The most talented member of the incoming transfers has yet to arrive on campus.
Allen was a first-team junior college All-American last season and had 10 sacks.
The majority of the defensive unit remains in tact from last season's team, which allowed just 21.4 points per game.
Rodney Allen, a defensive end from Garden City Community College, is expected to join the team this summer and could be yet another addition to a strong defensive line.
"This year we have been playing together for so long we know each other's mentality, and we know what we are going to do," said Floodman, who was named a captain along with Reid and Kane on Saturday.
Mangino said he hoped that this group of transfers would mesh with the veterans and help the Jayhawks improve on last season's 4-7 record.
"We are bigger, we are faster, we are stronger, we've executed better, we are a better fundamental team," Mangino said. "We hope that each year we get a little better. This spring was better than last spring. And now the goal is to make next fall better than last fall."

He ran the 100-meter dash in 9.79 seconds at Athens in 1999. He even came to the Kansas relays in 2000 shortly after achieving the record Training with some of track's elite athletes, Greene shattered the 100-meter dash record with years of effort and training. Not by using THG.
Before the 2000 Olympic Games in Sydney, Australia, Greene said he couldn't wait until the time came when testing could be effective in keeping steroids out of the oldest sport in history. The truth has finally been exposed.
In a sport where the elite athletes are ridiculed because of performance-enhancing drugs, Maurice Greene stands above the accusations that have led to the demise of other track stars. When he competes in the Gold Zone on Saturday, it will be an opportunity to see sport in its truest form.
Despite the state of BALCO accusations, one can find such purity in Greene.

Pitching stable, not Rocky
BY EIDIE PELLS THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
DENVER — The razor-thin lead. The boos as the manager approaches the mound. That sinking feeling as the bullpen stirs to life.
In only two weeks, it has become all too familiar to the Colorado Rockies. Jose Acevedo hasn't been a part of any of that, though, and yesterday, he helped write a different ending in an 8-1 victory against the Arizona Diamondbacks.
"You just go in there and pitch and try to get people out," said Acevedo, acquired from Cincinnati earlier this month and called up from Colorado Springs on Monday. "That's our job."
And where the rest of the bullpen has struggled, Acevedo made that job look easy. Brought in to protect a two-run lead with two outs in the eighth, he got Chad Tracy to pop out with two men on. The Rockies responded with five runs in the bottom of the inning.
Chin-hui Tsao pitched a scoreless ninth and while it wasn't a save situation, it surely felt like one. By getting the final four outs, Acevedo and Tsao kept things from getting worse for the Colorado bullpen, which had blown six saves in the first 12 games.
"It was a relief for all of us," said left-handed reliever Brian Fuentes, who got a rare day off.
Matt Holliday closed out his 4-for-4 day with a bases-loaded triple in Colorado's five-run eighth to make the ninth easy for Tsoa.
Jeff Francis (1-0) pitched a terrific 7 2-3 innings, not allowing a runner past second after the first inning. He appeared on the way to a complete game in the eighth, when manager Clint Hurdle made a visit to the mound, simply to tell Francis
the game was his.
It was not a popular appear ance.
"I can tell my mom, that's the loudest I've ever been booed in my career." Hurdle said.
A few minutes later, Francis allowed a single that gave put runners on first and second with two outs.
Hurdle walked back to the mound and summoned Acevedo.
"I thought we were going to go ahead like 5-3." Diamondbacks manager Bob Melvin said. "I thought we had a good chance there in the eighth inning once we got him out of the game."
Instead, Acevedo threw a fastball that caught Tracy on the hands and the Rockies were on the way to their third win of the year.
"It was a big out." Hurdle said. "It was a very big out."
Todd Greene had a bases-loaded walk in the third and Michael Restovich homered off former Rockies starter Shawn Estes (1-1) in the fourth to give Colorado a 3-1 lead.
RO
Francis, a left-handed rookie, had the strongest outing of his short career, throwing 89 pitches through the first seven innings and raising the possibility that the bullpen, which came in with a 1-6 record and an ERA of 9.73, might not have to get involved.
The Rockies had blown saves in their last two games. On Monday, Ryan Speier imploded to waste a nice start by Shawn Chacon, who as a closer last season was part of a bullpen that blew 34 saves. So far, this year's bullpen is on pace to blow 71.
Francis struck out four and walked three.
"It hasn't just been the bullpen struggling, it's been the whole team," Francis said. "To see them and shut the door like that is great."

Cyclist to appeal doping suspension
Tyler Hamilton may not compete in Tour de France
BY JOHN SARCHE THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
DENVER — Olympic gold medalist Tyler Hamilton vowed yesterday to fight his two-year suspension from competitive cycling, denying doping accusations.
Nonetheless, the Russian Olympic Committee filed an appeal with the Court of Arbitration for Sport seeking to strip Hamilton of his gold medal and give it to silver medalist Vyacheslav Ekimov.
"The fight's far from over," he said. "Obviously, yesterday was very disappointing. Myself, my family, all my sponsors and my teammates were shocked."
The independent American Arbitration Association-North American Court of Arbitration for Sport handed down the suspension Monday, citing a blood-doping violation discovered at a race in September.
He can return to competition April 17,2007,but he would forfeit all results since Sept.11, 2004,the day of the positive test at the Spanish Vuelta.
The positive test occurred a month after Hamilton won the time trial at the Athens Olympics. Hamilton allegedly tested positive in Athens, but that case was dropped after his backup sample was frozen, leaving too few red blood cells to analyze.
Hamilton said he expected the arbitrators to rule for him.
U. S. Olympic Committee spokesman Darryl Seibel declined to comment on Hamilton's suspension and said he didn't know the status of the Russian appeal.
"I'm certainly not a quitter
and I'm not going to give up until I'm vindicated," he said. "My chances of racing in this year's Tour de France are slim to none. That's what got me out of bed every morning."
The arbitration panel ruled that Hamilton's positive sample was from a transfusion of another person's blood. That would increase Hamilton's red-bloodcell count, increasing his endurance, the U.S. Anti-Doning Agency said.
Based on blood tests done in spring and summer 2004, cycling's international governing body, Union Cyclist International, had warned Hamilton and his Phonak team that he was under suspicion.
"UCI took the necessary action to protect the integrity of its sport," said Terry Madden, USADA's chief executive officer.
The UCI denied Phonak a racing license last fall because Hamilton and two other team riders had been charged in drug cases in the previous three months. Hamilton said Phonak successfully appealed the decision in December and will be able to compete in the Tour de France and other UCI Pro Tour events this year.
Phonak fired Hamilton in November, nearly a year before his contract was set to expire. He said at the time that he agreed to leave to improve the team's chances of competing on the pro tour.
Hamilton was considered a possible successor to six-time Tour de France winner Lance Armstrong. The two were once teammates on the U.S. Postal Service team. Hamilton finished fourth in the 2003 Tour despite a broken collarbone.
Hamilton earned a six-figure salary with Phonak and has endorsements deals with Nike, Oakley and other sponsors.

GRADE INFLATION
BOVE
THURSDAY, APRIL 21, 2005
Students and faculty wonder if grades accurately measure learning as GPAs steadily increase
BY NEIL MULKA nmulka@kansan.com
AVERAGE
All students like good grades. And grade point averages across the country, including at the University of Kansas, show that students are getting them.
The average GPA for Kansas undergraduates increased 11.5 percent to 2.93 from 1980 to 2004. The peak was in 2003, when the average GPA was 2.97 almost a "R'" average
Professors and administrators are worried about grade inflation, meaning work done 20 years ago would have earned a "C" but is now yanking in an "A."
"It's wicked and ought to be stopped," said Michael Johnson, director of the Freshman-Sophomore English Program at the University. "It makes evaluations of student performance meaningless."
institutions, according to grade inflation.com, a grade inflation database Web site. From 1991 to 2002, GPAs at public universities increased .15 of a point, from 2.82 to 2.97.
The University of Kansas isn't included in the Web site's database.
The University's GPA increase is on pace with other learning
Gradeinflation.com has GPAs based on a four-point scale from almost 90 universities nationwide and was created by Stuart Rojstaczer, a Duke associate professor of engineering.
Even though he tracks it, Rojstaczer admitted that he didn't give the grades that his students deserved to keep his class enrollment up. He said hadn't given a student a "D" since 1997.
Rojstaczer, who has written extensively on university issues, created the Web site to have an easily accessible database of GPAs and to dispel rumors that grade inflation was only an Ivy League or a humanities problem.
University administrators are worried that their schools look like "degree mills" because of the higher and higher GPAs, said Marlesa Roney, vice provost for student success.
Students come in and come out years later with a degree without an effort, she said.
But that doesn't mean all students are just going through the motions.
There isn't any lack of effort on the students' part to keep grades up, Brandon Grimm, Shawnee freshman, said.
"I know a lot of kids who bust their butts and still don't get the score they want." Grimm said.
Give me the 'A'! I paid for it!
Late-night cram sessions in the library or the less-than-noble route of cheating may not be the reason for the grade increase. Some students and parents may be asking for higher grades.

STUDENT SENATE
Violations grow to 10
The Student Voice coalition has received two more election code violations, Luke Thompson, elections commission chairman, said yesterday. The coalition will have a hearing Monday in the Kansas Union to find out the severity of the violations.
Both violations concern Student Voice's campaigning. The coalition was campaigning in front of Budig Hall, which was not approved by the commission before hand, Jason Boots, Student Senate legislative director, said. Boots, Planto, Texas, junior and member of the KUited coalition, will complete his term next week when a new executive staff is named by the student body president and vice president.
This brings up the total number of violations the coalition has received to 10. Delta Force has not received any violations, and Witnesses have
KUnited has received two.
Dennis Chanay, presidential candidate for Student Voice, has repeatedly voiced his displeasure with the elections commission
Chanay
and does not think it has served its purpose throughout the election. Chanay said yesterday he was unaware of the latest violations that had been filed against the coalition.

BOARD OF REGENTS
BY DANI LITT
dllt@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITE
Employees await Regents' decision
Classified employees can look forward to a salary increase this summer if the Board of Regents approves the University's request to be removed from the State Civil Service.
Gov. Kathleen Sebelius signed Senate Bill 74, which will allow classified positions and salaries to be managed by the University and Board of Regents rather than by the civil service system. The bill was passed 73-43 by the House of
Representatives and 30-0 by the Senate.
Under the civil service system, employees are governed by state rules and regulations. This is especially important in regarding employee salaries and job titles. Salary raises have been nonexistent in the past few years.
About 1,500 employees are under the state civil service system, including library assistants, custodial staff, accountants, office specialists and employees at the KU Public Safety Office.

As students rush to sell, pawn buyback drops
BY ADAM LAND
aland@kansan.com
KANSAN CAFFE WRITER
As the Spring semester comes to a close, students with cluttered residence halls or apartments have a need to get rid of unwanted or unnecessary items.
Televisions, VCRs and other electrical equipment often have to be unloaded, said John Geery, manager of Jayhawk Pawn and Jewelry, 1804 W. Sixth St.
"Around late May and late July we see students bringing in televisions and other electronic equipment," Geery said. "Whenever students move, we usually see them in here."
Pawnshops in Lawrence are preparing to see an increase in
student activity within the next month as graduation approaches and students move out.
He said people come in trying to sell TVs expecting to get as much as $20, but usually they can only offer $5 or so because 20 other students are trying to sell their TVs.
"I got a lot of video games and some other electronic stuff I want to sell after I'm out of the dorms," Cory Abbott, Leavenworth freshman, said. "I just don't really need them all."
The money pawnshops will give for items does not change, Geery said, but if the store has enough of one item they will turn the offer away.
Although the pawnshops see more students at certain times
of the year, students trickle in with all sorts of things to sell, such as an aluminum art easel, Geery said.
"I sold a bass amp," Evan McGuire, Dodge City freshman, said. "I needed a new one and just wanted some cash for it."
Musical equipment can also be pawned for some extra cash or an investment in a future purchase.
Students, mainly girls, want to sell rings or other jewelry, said Doug Wahl, owner of Lawrence Pawn and Jewelry, 944 E. 23rd St.
"We see a lot of girls that bring in these little rings that often we don't even want," he
Jewelry is also a big part of a pawnshops' business.
"I sold back a watch once to get some money." Abbott said.
He said he couldn't remember what he used the money for but that it must have been a frivolous buy.
"I probably blew it that night," he said.
Jewelry and electronics are the main types of items sold and bought at a pawnshop, but some things are a little strange.
JOHN JOHN BROWN
"People in general can bring in the weirdest things," Geery said. "I once had a student try to pawn turkey breasts around Thanksgiving."
Men can sell back jewelry, too.

Diluted grades diminish value of student grade point averages
Grade point averages have soared during the last 30 years, and it's not necessarily because students have gotten smarter or are working harder. Grade inflation has meant that students catch breaks when it comes to getting good grades. It was enough to make Princeton University do something about it by capping off grade limits. PAGE 1A

Company to take stage

Love, grief and squirrels will dance the evening away at the Lied Center.
The University Dance Company will perform eight pieces in its spring concert at 7:30 tonight and tomorrow in the center.
One piece, "Squirrel Suite," was choreographed by guest artist Kate Skarpetowska, a member of The Parsons Dance Company in New York City. The Parsons Dance Company tries to make modern dance accessible to the widest audience possible by doing outreach activities, including master classes, lectures, demonstrations, workshops and symposia in different communities.
Steven Bartkoski/KANSAN
Casey Jones, Topeka senior, dances during final dress rehearsal of the University Dance Company last night in the Lied Center. The University Dance Company will perform at 7:30 tonight and Friday.
The "Squirrel Suite" is set to the music of neo-swing band Squirrel Nut Zippers. Working with a professional dancer like Skarpetowska was intense, Rachel Moses, Great Bend senior, said.
"We had four- and five-hour rehearsals every day of the week when she was here in February," Moses said. "When you're a professional dancer, you're rehearsing all the time."
Two of the pieces are choreographed by students for senior projects. One of those projects, "Stages," choreographed by Amy Hutchings, Denver senior, goes through the five stages of grief, denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance.
Hutchings said she wanted to send messages by connecting to the audience through the movement, Hutchings said.
"Nodes of Love," choreographed by Beau Hancock, Hugoton senior, is about the passing glances of strangers set to "Grant Hotel" by DJ Comoesta Yaegashi.
Hancock said the piece was about seeing someone on the street and having a mutual attraction but not knowing how to start a relationship.
"It's about playful timidness," he said.
The show lasts about an hour and half. Tickets cost $10 for the general public and $7 for students and senior
citizens and can be purchased at the Student Union Activities box office, the Murphy Hall box office, the Lied Center box office or by calling 864-ARTS.

Soldiers die in training mishap
BY JOHN MILBURN THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
TOPEKA — Two Fort Riley soldiers died in a training accident on their Army post in northeast Kansas when an armored personnel carrier rolled over.
The soldiers were from Company A of the 1st Engineer Battalion of the 1st Brigade, 1st Infantry Division. Five other soldiers were injured in the accident Tuesday afternoon, said post spokeswoman Sam Robinson.
The other soldiers' injuries weren't considered life-threatening. About 100 soldiers were involved in the training on the northeast section of the post.
Robinson said the accident was being investigated by the battalion, military police and the Fort Riley Directorate of Environment and Safety.
A family member told KSL-TV in Salt Lake that one of the victims was Pfc. Philip Marc Christensen, 21. The names of the soldiers weren't released by Fort Riley, pending notification of families. A memorial service was
scheduled for both soldiers at 10 a.m.
today at the post's Morris Hill Chapel.
Robinson said the accident was being investigated by the battalion, military police and the Fort Riley Directorate of Environment and Safety.
The accident occurred as the soldiers were training in an M113 personnel carrier on the squad assault
course. All seven soldiers injured or killed were inside.
Robinson said the post was still investigating and did not yet have other details, including how the vehicle rolled over and the specific terrain. Fort Riley's training grounds are in the Flint Hills, a landscape of hills, grasses, creeks and small ponds.
The battalion, formed in 1846, is the U.S. Army's oldest engineer battalion and returned to Fort Riley in September 2004 after a year in Iraq.
Five soldiers from Company B were killed in March 2004 in Iraq when a bomb exploded beneath their M113. In all, 10 soldiers from the battalion died in combat in Iraq.
The battalion and entire brigade have been placed on notice for possible redeployment to Iraq later this year or in early 2006. Currently, more than 4,300 Fort Riley soldiers are in Iraq.

Salary boost will benefit public safety
Internal change could allow office to offer competitive wages
BY JOSHUA BICKEL

KANSAN STAFF WRITE
Officers at the KU Public Safety Office may soon see an increase in their salaries.
"Compared to the private sector, our salaries in all three categories are below normal," Ralph Oliver, director of KU Public
If the Board of Regents allows classified employees to be removed from the State Civil Service, classified employees at the KU Public Safety Office would be governed by the University and eligible for salary and merit raises. Police officers, security officers and dispatchers are employees of the office.

a problem with retaining officers, Oliver said. Salaries for officers in surrounding areas are between 20 percent to 25 percent higher than the KU Public Safety Office.
These higher salaries attract younger officers away from the KU Public Safety Office, resulting in a high turnover rate, Oliver said.
The starting annual salary for an officer at the KU Public Safety Office, a classified state employee, is about $28,724.
OFFICER SALARIES
Annual starting salaries for KU Public Safety officers are about 20 to 25 percent lower than surrounding police departments.
Below is a comparison of some annual salaries.
Baldwin City Police Department:$34,500
Lawrence Police Department:$36,670
Public Safety Office:$28,724

Lower and non-competitive salaries are the main reasons the KU Public Safety Office has had
"To a young officer, an increase like that is attractive," he said.
Comparatively, the average starting salary for a police officer at the Lawrence Police Department is $36,670 per year. Sgt. Dan Ward of the Lawrence Police Department said that the department had hired a few officers in the past who came from the KU Public Safety Office, but
he didn't know if it was because of an increase in salary specifically.
To prevent such a high turnover rate, KU Public Safety officers are given a 5 percent incentive in addition to their salaries.
Hopefully Senate Bill 74 will eliminate this retention incentive and instead become part of the officers' salaries, Oliver said.
"Then we'll be able to attract good quality people versus people who meet the minimum requirements," he said.
Oliver wasn't sure if the bill would allow the Public Safety Office to hire more officers, but added that he was more concerned with hiring more dispatchers and security officers.

Decision CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
University officials said they would like to put the request on the June agenda and are hopeful it will pass, said Ola Faucher, director of human resources.
If approved, the law would go into effect on July 1, and employees could see the benefits as early as July 3, which is the start of a new pay period.
If the employees are removed from the civil service system, they would be in a category called University Support Staff.
"We would like to be able to provide for them the way we provide for our unclassified staff," Faucher said.
The University needs to do better than 2.5 percent so employees can be paid better,
Employees under the new system would be eligible to receive more than the 2.5 percent salary increase approved by the Legislature in January.

The remaining one-third of the money would be used for merit raises determined by evaluations within the departments and other factors such as skills or new responsibilities.
opens the door for favoritism.
Eakin said some are nervous about the new system because it
"It's a new thing," he said. "There has never been a performance component to their salary. There hasn't been any incentive, reward or punishment."
But separation from the state civil service system is something most University classified employees have been waiting for.
On Oct. 14, 2003, classified employees voted to withdraw from civil service. Bette Luther, an accountant, voted in favor of it.
"A lot of it had to do with the fact that our merit raises were frozen in February 2001," she said. "There were a lot of people who had to leave to go find work elsewhere."
Merit raises are given to employees based on the work they've done. Employees governed by the University and the Board of Regents, such as faculty, staff and administration, are eligible for these raises.
Employees removed from the

civil service system would still be employees of the state. They would not lose any holidays or have a decrease in salary and they would still be under the state retirement system and state leave program. They would no longer be able to appeal demotion or suspension to the civil service appeals board.
As a result, Luther said classified employees were in the process of creating an appeals process for employees who felt they were wrongfully demoted, suspended or terminated.
"It is a benefit for us that we have an opportunity to get an increase in salary from the University and be rewarded for the work that we do," Luther said.
Gov. Sebelius will be on campus today for a ceremonial signing of Senate Bill 74 at 4 p.m. at Alderson Auditorium in the Kansas Union.
Committee allows BTK defense fund
TOPEKA — The BTK serial killings in Wichita became an issue yesterday for legislators, with a House committee endorsing a proposal to spend $405,000 to help the defense of the man accused of the crimes.
Edited by Megan Claus
The Appropriations Committee decided to allocate $80,573 in the current budget for Dennis Rader's defense and an additional $324,126 in the spending plan for the next fiscal year, which begins July 1. Gov. Kathleen Sebelius recommended spending the money.
Rader faces 10 counts of first-degree murder in Sedgwick County in the strangling and torture killings that began in 1974 and continued for 17 years. BTK is the nickname the killer gave himself, meaning "Bind, Torture, Kill."

Connecticut adopts civil union statute
CIVIL RIGHTS
BY SUSAN HAIGH
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
HARTFORD, Conn. — Connecticut yesterday became the second state to offer civil unions to gay couples—and the first to do so without being forced by the courts.
About an hour after the State Senate sent her the legislation, Republican Gov. M. Jodi Rell signed into law a bill that will afford same-sex couples in Connecticut many of the rights and privileges of married couples.
"The vote we cast today will reverberate around the country and it will send a wave of hope to many people, to thousands of people across the country," said Sen. Andrew McDonald, who is gay.
The State House passed the measure last week but amended it to define marriage under Connecticut law as between one man and one woman.
The Senate approved the amended bill yesterday 26-8.
The law takes effect Oct. 1.
"I have said all along that I believe in no discrimination of any kind and I think that this bill accomplishes that, while at the same time preserving the traditional language that a marriage is between a man and a woman," Rell said.
Vermont is the only other state to allow civil unions. Massachusetts allows gay couples to marry.
But those changes came about after same-sex couples won court battles.
Last summer, seven same-sex couples sued in Connecticut after being denied marriage licenses; the case has not been resolved.
Roman Catholics and promarriage activists plan a big rally Sunday in opposition to the bill.
Marie Hilliard, executive director of the Connecticut
Catholic Conference, said the civil union proposal "got more legs than we ever hoped it would get."
About 44 percent of the state's 3 million residents are Roman Catholic.
Anne Stanback, executive director of Loves Makes a Family, said her group would probably begin talking to lawmakers about gay marriage — though she acknowledged it was not likely the issue would be taken up next session.
"Our mission will be to let every person know in the state of Connecticut which lawmakers voted to redefine marriage, and which lawmakers voted to protect marriage," he said.
Brian Brown, head of the Family Institute of Connecticut, said his group intended to keep the issue squarely before the public.
"As important as the rights are, this is not yet equality," she said.

Cannabis drug approved
BY BETH DUFF-BROWN THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Health Canada, the federal agency that oversees medical care for Canadians, announced on Tuesday it had approved the prescription painkiller Sativex, made from components derived from the cannabis plant that have been shown to ease pain.
TORONTO — Canada has become the first country in the world to approve a cannabis-based painkiller for patients suffering multiple sclerosis, a move applauded by those with the disease and proponents of medical uses for marijuana.
The British drug company GW Pharmaceuticals, which developed the drug, said Canada was the first country to grant regulatory approval for Sativex, which will be marketed in Canada by Bayer HealthCare and could be in pharmacies by summer. The drug can be sprayed under the tongue or inside the cheek, avoiding the carcinogenic dangers of smoking pot.
Medical professionals voice high hopes for the drug's success
"The pain (of multiple sclerosis) can be absolutely excruciating and very deblitating," said Judith H. Watt-Watson, a professor at the University of
Toronto's Center for the Study of Pain. "There's an urgent need for more options."
Many people with multiple sclerosis, an autoimmune disease that affects the central nervous system, treat their pain by smoking marijuana. But the dose is hard to regulate and the drug is difficult to obtain legally.
About 50,000 Canadians and 400,000 Americans have MS and some 2.5 million people are believed to be afflicted worldwide, according to the New York-based National Multiple Sclerosis Society.
About half of MS patients suffer from chronic pain.
Kansas governor to receive award

Sebelius will receive the 2005 Pioneer Woman Award that recognizes exemplary Kansas women who has made historic contributions of local or statewide significance.
Flora Richardson Coleman, valedictorian and first female graduate in the class of 1873, received the award in 2003. Four of the women in the program will be inducted into the KU Women's Hall of Fame. The Women's Recognition Program was established in the 1960s to honor woman students.

Panel to discuss evolution, science
Kansas citizens have an opportunity today to see how prepared the state is for the bioscience industry. A panel was created to examine the question of whether Kansas students will be able to hold careers in the bioscience industry if evolution is not taught in state schools.
Because of the upcoming hearings being held by the Kansas Board of Education, the meeting was arranged on short notice. Teachers, members of the bioscience industry and students along with Steven Case, chairman of the science standards curriculum revision committee, will have the opportunity to discuss the knowledge and willingness of Kansans to support the bioscience industry.
The meeting will be from 1 to 5:30 p.m. in Plymouth Congregational Church,925 Vermont St. The meeting is open to the public.

50 bodies pulled from Tigris
BY ALEXANDRA ZAVIS THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
BAGHDAD, Iraq — Iraq's interim president announced yesterday the recovery of more than 50 bodies from the Tigris River, saying the grisly discovery was proof of claims that dozens were abducted from an area south of the capital despite a fruitless search by Iraqi forces.
Northwest of Baghdad, witnesses said 19 bullet-riddled bodies were found slumped against a bloodstained wall in a soccer stadium in Haditha.
The discoveries came as insurgents unleashed a string of attacks that killed at least nine Iraqis and wounded 21. They included four suicide car bombs — one of which targeted interim Prime Minister Ayad Allawi's convoy — and a roadside explosion in the capital, police said.
Allawi escaped unharmed, they said.
Another blast sent smoke billowing over Baghdad's heavily fortified Green Zone, home to the Iraqi government and foreign embassies. It was not clear what caused that explosion.
Interim President Jalal Talabani did not say when or where the 50 bodies were pulled from the river, but he said all had been identified as hostages.
The country's most feared terror group, al-Qaida in Iraq, claimed responsibility for two of the Baghdad attacks in a series of statements posted on a militant Web site. It was not possible to verify the claim.
"Terrorists committed crimes there. It is not true to say there were no hostages. There were. They were killed, and they threw the bodies into the Tigris." Talabani told reporters. "We have the full names of
those who were killed and those criminals who committed these crimes."
Shiite leaders and government officials claimed last week that Sunni militants had abducted as many as 100 Shiites from the Madain area, 14 miles southeast of Baghdad. But when Iraqi forces moved into the town of 1,000 families, they found no captives, and residents said they had seen no evidence anyone had been seized.
Madain is at the tip of a Sunni militant stronghold known as the "Triangle of Death," where there have been numerous retaliatory kidnappings. Police and health officials said victims are sometimes killed and dumped in the river.
As summer approaches and temperatures start to rise, bodies have been floating to the surface, said Dr. Falah Al-Permani of the Swera district health
department. He said some 50 bodies have been recovered over the past three weeks. But it was not clear whether they were the bodies referred to by Talabani.
In Haditha, 140 miles northwest of Baghdad, taxi drivers Rauf Salih and Ousama Halim said they heard gunshots and rushed to the stadium. There they found 19 bloodied bodies lined up against a wall, the two men and an Iraqi reporter said. All appeared to have been gunned down.
Residents said they believed the victims — all men in civilian clothes — were soldiers abducted by insurgents as they headed home for a holiday marking the birthday of the Prophet Muhammad.
The reporter did not see any military identification documents on the bodies, and it was not possible to verify the claim.
One killed in Iran runway mishap
▼ WORLD
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
TEHRAN, Iran — A Boeing 707 carrying 157 passengers skid...ed off a runway at Tehran's airport and caught fire yesterday, killing a child and injuring several other people, state-run television reported.
The station had initially reported 50 dead in the crash of the Iranian Saha Airlines plane, then reported scores killed before backing off both claims.
Television reports said the landing gear of the jetliner failed to open and the plane caught fire after making a hard landing, its nose and wing slamming into the runway.
State TV quoted the airline's managing director, identified only by his last name Nikokar, saving a child was killed.
"Only one person has been
killed and a number of passengers have been injured," television quoted Nikokar as saying.
Reports said part of the plane's fuselage plunged into a river but passengers were able to jump out of the craft.
The injured, many of whom suffered broken bones, have been taken to Tehran hospitals for treatment, the television said.
The broadcaster said the plane landed at 10:15 p.m. and the fire erupted minutes later. It said the aircraft carried 157 people, including eight children, and had flown in from the tourist island of Kish in the Persian Gulf.

Saha Airline Services is owned by the Iranian military but also operates civilian flights. It was not known whether military personnel were aboard yesterday's flight.
A Saha Airlines Boeing 707 plane lies where it stopped after skidding off the runway and into a river carrying 157 passengers at Tehran's Mehrabad airport late last night. One child was killed in the accident according to state-run television and several passengers were reported injured. Television reports said the landing gear of the Saha Airlines Boeing 707 failed to open and the plane caught fire after making a hard landing.

Rachel Sevmour/KANSAN
"I had in fact, one mother, some years ago, say to me that 'this essay deserves more than a "C" because I helped my daughter with it,'" said Paul Lim, English professor at the University.
Josh Moore, Tulsa, Okla., junior, searches the 4 1/2 west stack at Watson Library for an extra credit project article with fellow student, David Laya, Venezuela junior. Moore said students pressured professors into curving grades because students were less willing to work for the higher grades.
THE GREATEST AMERICAN POETRY 1945
This kind of pressure isn't unusual because of the emergence of consumer culture in education, Roistaczer said.
Students and parents are paying more for education every year, and they want the reward of good grades, he said. Professors are willing to comply.
Professors are not the only ones to blame, but some administrators as well, Rojstaczer said.
"They talk about students as customers, and they talk about keeping the customer happy," he said. "Universities should be about education and learning and creating a culture of learning — and not a product."
The college degree has become a commodity and not a symbol that indicates the person has been committed to intellectual discovery, he said. Students expect good grades these days, some educators said. "If I were to say to you where I feel the most pressure from, the students or the administration, I would say I feel the most pressure from the students," said Bill

"Even if you agree that the best and brightest come to college, work that earned an 'A' in high school doesn't get an 'A' in college." Manning said.
An attitude that some students have is that if they do the minimum requirements, they deserve an "A," he said.
Attitude adjustment
There's another explanation for rising GPAs: Professors are letting lower quality work slide by.
"We what we are dealing with is a willingness to accept a range of different performances as more or less equal," said Michael Johnson, director of the Freshman-Sophomore English Program. "It's the Lake Wobeon effect."
Johnson is referring to the Garrison Keillor novel, "Lake Wobegon Days," where all of the children in the fictional town of Lake Wobegon, Minn.

Teachers sometimes think about what would happen to the students' future if they gave them a low grade, said Jorg Meindl, Speyer, Germany, graduate student who teaches intermediate German classes.
That's an attitude that some students from their teachers.
that some students have seen from their teachers.
"Educators want us to have degrees," Iefan Thompson, Topeka freshman, said. "Things have changed so much in the past 20 years. You didn't used to have a college degree; now you
do. There's a lot more jobs that require it now."
Chancellor Robert Hemenway sees a change in professors' attitudes about grading.
About 40 years ago, professors focused more on the negative aspects of student work, he said. Now teachers are more focused on student success.
"I can remember when I was in graduate school, professors delighted in making brutal remarks about inadequate construction, grammar and ideas that didn't seem to hold much water," Hemenway said. "I think as a profession we discovered that those nasty remarks about the inadequacy of a student are counterproductive and actually impede
learning."
Some professors are lowering standards because high school students coming into college aren't as prepared for academic life as students were before, said Holly Storkel, assistant professor of speech, language and hearing.
That's something that students should be worried about, said Dan Bernstein, director of the Center for Teaching Excellence, an organization that promotes better teaching practices at the University.
ply lowered standards, privately giving away good grades and the students aren't learning much, then the students should be unhappy."
Lower standards aren't what Christopher Volek, Lawrence freshman, wants his money to buv.
"If the instructor has very high standards that are publicly verified and students are performing very well, students should be happy," Bernstein said. "If the instructor has sim-

not higher grades.
"This semester I had an English teacher who was asking outrageous things of me," he said, "so I dropped the class. I like to keep my options open before I have to commit, depending on how the teacher grades."
Stop those grades!
One department at the University is tackling increasing GPAs head-on.
The Freshman-Sophomore English Program is trying to stop grade inflation through a method called "self-correction," said Michael Johnson, director of the program
In 2000, Johnson studied the average GPA for freshman and sophomore English classes and realized it had increased 13 percent since 1990.
Johnson estimated that in 2018, the average grade would be an "A."
He then created grade summaries that showed the grading patterns to English teachers.
By making them aware of what was happening to grades overall, teachers started to analyze their own grades and started self-correcting, Johnson said.
A grade summary provided by the Freshman-Sophomore English Program shows the average GPA for the freshman-sophomore English classes dropped three percent since 1990.
About 25 percent of KU undergraduate students took a freshman-sophomore English class in Fall 2004. The average GPA last fall was 2.71.
Bernstein proposes one way to ensure that students are learning and earning high grades: Make teachers' methods public and open to criticism like their research.
What someone needs to look at is the quality of what the students were asked to do and the quality of how the students performed, he said.
As a violin performance major, this concept isn't new to Grimm.
What he learns equals how well he plays, he said, and how

What's the significance?
While the average GPA for public universities is closing in on a "B" average, students have to find different ways of selling themselves for the future.
Thompson, who is double majoring in linguistics and East Asian studies, is planning to go to graduate school. He said it's going to take more than his grades to get him to the next level of education.
Average Fall 2004 Freshman- Sophomore English grades (OUT OF 5,154 STUDENTS)
In addition to good grades he said he would need a portfolio of work, references from professors and a strong performance during the interview.
Grades have different meanings at different points of a student's career, Bernstein said.
Basic courses might be used to certify that the student has learned while grades in advanced courses could be used to help differentiate students who are ready to go onto graduate work, he said.

"I can figure out pretty easily working with a student on a project if they're ready for grad school," Bernstein said. "I don't need their grades from Pysch 104 to tell me that."

Princeton tries to end grade inflation with cap
BY NELF MULKA
nmulka@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Princeton University administrators were so worried about grade inflation that they changed the school's policy.
The Ivy League school initiated a policy last fall that maxed distribution of "As" to 35 percent for all undergraduate classes and to 55 percent for junior and senior independent study work.
Sixty-five percent of seniors graduated in 2004 with a grade point average that was a "B+" or better, according to an article written by Nancy Weiss Malkiel in the Princeton Parents News. In contrast, only five percent graduated with a GPA that was lower than a "B-."
This move made Princeton students worry that it would resurrect the competitive nature of high school, said Jesse Creed, Princeton sophomore and vice president of the Undergraduate Student Government.
"Most students here are exceptionally ambitious," Creed said. "Students here will do whatever it takes to succeed."
Princeton won't have any hard information on how grading patterns have changed until after the

professor
Bill Skepnek Honors Western civilization professor
end of the academic year, said Malkiel, dean of the College and a key figure behind the policy.
Some think this policy changes little.
"It's not a fix, it's a public relations stunt," Dan Bernstein, director for the Center of Teaching Excellence, said. "It has nothing to do with the real question at hand."
The real question for Bernstein is this: How much are students actually learning?
"They are not looking deeply into what students are learning class by class to see if this
teacher has high standards or this teacher has low standards." Bernstein said. "They're just playing numbers games. There may be a problem, but the problem is not addressed at looking at grades in the absence of looking at student work."
“你're telling me, if I'm an art professor and I've got Monet, Picasso, Dali and Leonardo, that only a couple of them get 'As?' That's ridiculous." he said.
Another problem to the Princeton solution is the limiting factor of grading, said Bill Skepnek, honors Western civilization instructor at the University of Kansas.
"I think it was a good move and applauded her privately," he said. "It's a good move because you need to re-establish the value of a grade. By limiting a number of 'As' you are establishing that an 'A' grade means something. It's something approaching excellence."
Princeton's new system, engineered by Malkiel, helps grades retain value, Stuart Rojstazcer, creator of gradeinflation.com, said.

You're easily distracted now, and that could cause you problems. Remember
+ Aries (March 21-April 19) Today is a 6.

TV news superficial by nature print, online more in-depth
STEPHANIE LOVETT slovett@kansan.com
With no disrespect to the late pope intended, I got tired of watching the constant coverage of his death. During the week of his funeral, I gave up on finding any other news on television and turned to reading my news exclusively.
Of course, it's not fair to
generalize. The pope's funeral coverage was a huge news event. Normally, television covers a variety of stories. And TV news stations can report stories as they happen.
Still, the shortcoming of TV news is that despite constant coverage, it only rarely provides the depth and perspective needed to understand what's going on.
This limitation makes sense when you consider the nature of television. TV news is image-driven. Reporters need pictures to make a story, so the more abstract questions surrounding some stories are harder to package for television.
Unfortunately, this means people who get their news primarily from TV get much less in-depth, thought-provoking reporting.
A study released by the University of Wisconsin-Madison last month pointed out this very fact.
Researchers surveyed selfidentified liberals in the month following the Sept. 11 attacks. Liberals who were heavy television watchers became more in favor of government police powers.
Liberals who watched little
Written material is spread over space. Hence, it's easy to reference previous parts of a story within written material, whereas it isn't possible with television, Simpson said. Moreover, watching TV is a passive activity and reading is active.
"Television news doesn't promote critical thinking. You can point your eyes at a screen, but you need more engagement than that," Simpson said.
The Terri Schiavo circus is another example of broadcast media unable to tell the whole story.
Dietram Scheufele, a professor who conducted the study, said the results were a very strong argument for reading newspapers as opposed to watching TV news.
Good coverage explored the issues related to the Schiavo case that made it so newsworthy: Is there a right to live? What are the possible ramifications of Congress's intrusion in the case? Should marriage trump blood relatives in end-of-life decisions?
television and read newspapers remained more skeptical of increased government intrusion.

Reading promotes more critical thinking than television because of how parts of the stories are separated from others, said Greg Simpson, cognitive psychologist and chair of the University of Kansas psychology department. Television is
Television has value. But we should consider it our initial contact with what's going on in the world. For more in-depth coverage, read your news in a newspaper or Internet source you trust.
Broadcasters were likely aware of the issues needed to put the story into perspective, but it is simply harder to communicate those abstract ideas with the television medium.
But those questions were scant raised by national broadcast news. Despite 24/7 coverage of a big news story, viewers were delivered little more than angry rhetoric from both sides of the political extremes.

GUEST COMMENTARY
GTAs unfairly treated like mercenaries for faculty
Power is exercised through a multitude of practices ranging from the coercive to persuasive. It is also exerted through systems of categorization, where certain groups are granted or denied various rights.
---
BRIAN AZCONA
opinion@kansan.com
In American history, a long record of struggle reveals this
fact, and people have courageously challenged unethical circumstances perpetuated by dubious definitions, frequently along the lines of class, gender and race.
This week, graduate employees at Yale and Columbia are striking. Why has unrest penetrated these bastions of privilege? Because graduate teaching assistants demand that their administrations recognize them as workers, not just students, and acknowledge their rights to organize as a union and collectively bargain for a contract.
Guardians of the Ivy League, however, assert their prerogative to define both the legal status and identity of its workers. The National Labor Relations Board validated this position and denied GTAs at private universities a basic human right.
The 2004 ruling followed the installment of new pro-business appointees to the NLRB. The decision fell along party lines — three Republicans ruling against the GTAs and two Democrats ruling in their favor — and it overturned the NLRB's previous bipartisan and unanimous ruling in 2000, which permitted GTAs at N-
In light of such disappointments, it helps to keep in mind that infamous clause in the United States Constitution that declared African Americans three-fifths of a person. Then, we realize that logic and consistency have never really been the basis for state-supported systems of categorization, and such attacks on common sense are always amenable.
But one does not have to turn back to history to witness offenses to reason. The University of Kansas enacts a similar authority by classifying many of its graduate employees as "lecturers."
the "lecturer."
which permitted GTAs at New York University to create a union.
Many of these "lecturers" are currently seeking degrees and perform the same duties as GTAs. Some have been demoted as a result of the 10-semester limit — a unilateral decision from the provost David Shulenburger which
restricts GTA funding to five years it takes average PhD student in the United States seven to eight years to obtain a degree.
Others just have trouble finding GTA positions as they enter the University because of reductions and must settle for the precarious existence of
The distinction excludes them from our union contract, so they do not receive tuition waivers and other benefits. These alternative classifications contribute to the 14 percent reduction in the number of University GTAs since 1997—the year the union, GTAC, won its first contract.
Rather than provide a model for fair employment practices and accountability, public universities draw from corporate culture and opt for the strategy mastered in the cutthroat world of business Downsizing
The change provides insight as to how the University approaches the need for academic labor in an era of declining federal and state
Thus, the University and other public universities around the country ironically appropriate practices lauded in the private sector to minimize cost.
In these days of mounting corporate frauds,why would public authorities turns to the private sector for guidance?
Rather than provide a model for fair employment
practices and accountability, public universities draw from corporate culture and opt for the strategy mastered in the cut-throat world of business: Downsizing.
As private universities, like Columbia and Yale, turn to the state to do their dirty work, public universities, like the University of Kansas, begin to emulate their corporate "partners" in their management practices. The rulers of these institutions do not seem to recognize any demarcation between public and private or between education and business.
The only boundaries that they see are those that inscribe workers and students into bureaucratic categories and limit their capacity to determine the meaning of education, the role of the university and their place in it.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
SUV column misleading in terms of poor safety
The points made in Austin Caster's recent column "Lighten burden on wallet, environment with Hybrids" are mostly good ones, but I would like to tender an important correction.
The article states that SUVs "have the highest safety ratings". This is incorrect. Because of the weight distribution and the height of the center of gravity from the road, SUVs are up to twice as likely to get into a high-fatality "roll-over" accident than any other class of passenger vehicle.
These factors also lead to a higher danger of hydroplaning on wet roads. Safety inspectors
have demonstrated that fatalities in small and medium SUVs are alarmingly higher than fatalities in cars and vans of similar size. In larger SUVs, what is alarming is the rate of fatalities in the other car involved in an accident.
For every 25 deaths in a large SUV involved in a two-car accident, there are 112 deaths in the other vehicle involved. Large SUV owners are willing to trade the high possibility of killing other people for the "safe" feeling they get driving a behemoth vehicle. This abysmal safety record makes SUVs more dangerous than a loaded gun.
No indeed, SUVs do not have the "highest" safety ratings.

Let me get this straight. John Randle gets arrested five times and he still gets to keep his scholarship? That's got to change.
So much for progress in the church. No wonder participation is at an all-time low, with the church preaching an anti-gay message, excluding women from the church and prohibiting birth control.
Holy crap, the new pope used to be a member of the Hitler Youth.
Tennessee? It's freaking ridiculo
Why the hell doesn't the city of Lawrence coordinate the lights on 11th and Kentucky and 11th and an orange line.
I think me and John Randle can agree on one thing; the urinals at KU are disgusting.

Relays renaissance

Olympians highlight effort to return historic event to days at the top
BY FRANK TANKARD

KANSAN SPORTSWRIVER
Every year, Kansas Relays meet
Director Tim Weaver has to
answer the same question: Are the
Kansas Relays back on track?
After the meet was canceled in 1998 and 1999 because of track renovations and after two decades of mediocre competition and mostly empty stadiums, many wondered whether the meet would return.
Weaver was hired as the meet director and the Relays returned in 2000. Weaver said he was ready to stop answering the question of whether the meet was back.
"This will be the sixth Kansas Relays since the meet was canceled for two years and considered dead by most," Weaver said. "In my mind, the comeback is over."
In the past, the invitational races were more evenly distributed during the first two days of the three-day event.
The Kansas Athletics Department has been heavily promoting the Gold Zone, a new format for the meet in which the premier athletes compete from 2 to 5 p.m. on Saturday.
The caliber of athletes competing in the year's meet certainly seems to back Weaver up. Seven Olympic gold medalists, three silver medalists, 22 additional Olympic qualifiers and seven World Championship winners are all competing in the meet.
Local newspapers have reported that the Athletic Department has spent almost $100,000 to bring in the high-profile athletes, including Maurice Greene, Marion Jones, Stacy Dragia and Allen Johnson, four of the biggest stars in track and field.
won several outdoor championships during that time.
But how do these athletes compare to the greats of Kansas Relays lore from the 1950s through the early 1980s, when the meet was considered to be in its heyday? The Jayhawks
The meet has played host to many of the world's best athletes over the years, many of whom competed for Kansas. There was four-time Olympic champion Al Oerter, who won the shotput in 1956, '57, '59 and again in '81.
And, of course, there was distance prodigy and world-record holder Jim Ryun in the 1960s. In 1972 he came back to the meet, helping to draw a record of 32,000 fans in the stands. Twelve athletes from the Soviet Union came to the meet in the landmark year of 1983. They won nine events and set seven meet records.
Statistically speaking, this year's top competitors are as good as ever, and there are far more of them. When once Kansas athletes dominated the meet, now professionals are the main
attraction.
In the late 1980s, the Kansas track team fell from the top and has yet to climb back. The last time the Jayhawks won a conference championship was 1982. In 2004, the team finished last in the conference.
Top: The Kansas Relays are run on a dirt track in April, 1955. Those Relays took place before the Campanile was built. Bottom: Kansas Relay participants sprint around the track in April, 1956. Many changes have come to the Relays in its history, including the introduction of the Gold Zone this year.
But there are definitely some Kansas performers to watch this year. Senior Brooklyn Hann broke her own school record in the triple jump on Saturday at the Tom Botts

Along with meet director Tim Weaver, these three organized one of the most hyped events in Lawrence.
To say that big names will be at the Kansas Relays this year would be an understatement. Marion Jones, Maurice Greene, Stacy Dragila and 36 other Olympians will be competing in the Gold Zone on Saturday.
"It's a lot of work every year, the Gold Zone is just a new idea, a way to condense down the high-profile events. It's really a lot of work," Meyers said.

Julius Jiles, freshman hurdler and sprinter, practices Monday afternoon at Memorial Stadium the for the Kansas Relays. Jiles was last year's Relays high school MVP.
Tulius Jiles is familiar with success at the Kansas Relays.
Stephanie Farley/KANSAN
One year ago, Jiles ran the meet of his life, winning the high school boy's 100- and 400-meter hurdles and earning Kansas Relays MVP honors. Jiles, a Kansas City, Mo., freshman, hails from the same high school as Olympian Muna Lee.
Lee traveled to Athens to compete in the 200-meter dash. She won two indoor national championships in the 60-meter dash.
From the moment Jiles entered the famous track program at Central High School, expectations were high.
"My freshman year coming in, their track program was so good," Jiles said. "Wherever Muna Lee left off, we had to continue that."
Jiles originally fell in love with football. Ranked No.15 in the nation, Jiles faced a promising pigskin career. An injury his senior year forced him to make changes.
"My senior year I was a free safety, I broke my hand in 23 different places in the first game," Jiles said. "I still tried to
play on it for four games, but I wasn't noticed."
Jiles focused primarily on track and hasn't looked back since. By the time he graduated, he had won the Missouri State championship six times, three state MVP's and three National Championships. Jiles was named a high school all-

Gold Zone highlights Relays
Three-hour event is new this year
BY PATRICK SHEHAN
pshehan@kansan.com
KANSAN SOFTWAREWRITER
There will be two kinds of people this weekend: people who are at the Gold Zone, and people who will lie about being there. At least that's what Kansas Relays meet director Tim Weaver thinks.
In a radio interview two years ago, Weaver was asked, "If a person has three or four hours to go to the Kansas Relays, what should they see?"
Weaver had no answer. He
concluded that two 12-hour days of track didn't appeal to a sports fan anymore. The problem was condensing the most important events into a shorter period of time.
"I'm not just talking about the Relays as a sporting event," Weaver said. "I'm talking about entertainment. Movies, plays and concerts all last around three hours."
Weaver's emotions were cemented when he visited the Weltklasse meet in Zurich, Switzerland.
"There were 25,000 going crazy like in an NFL game for three hours on a Friday night," Weaver said. "I just knew we had to incorporate something like this in the relays."
In one aspect, the Gold Zone is exclusive: Only the best collegiate and unattached athletes may compete. In other aspects, the Gold Zone will be an exhibition of Olympic talent. Weaver met with Athletics Director Lew Perkins earlier this year and set a goal of having 15 Olympians.
Thus, Weaver invented the Gold Zone, a three-hour event from 2 to 5 p.m. Saturday.
At the moment, he has more than doubled that expectation. Seven gold medalists, 12 silver medalists and 22 other Olympians round out the field.
Kansas legends Pat Manson and Charlie Gruber will compete. Missouri graduate and their former rival, Derrick Peterson, will compete. And world-renowned celebrities such as Marion Jones, Maurice Greene and Stacy Dragila will compete.
Local newspapers have
reported that the Athletics Department has spent about $100,000 to accommodate all the athletes.
This year we just decided that in order to make money, you have to spend money," he said.
Josh Meyers, a chairman for the student relay committee, said that economically, this year was much different from others in the past.
The Gold Zone, though a new concept for the Relays, still won't take away from the decades of tradition.
The Gold Zone, as well as the rest of the Kansas Relays, is free to students with a KUID.

Junior outfielder Matt Baty plays into second base as Wichita State's Nick McCoola, senior second baseman, taps him out. Kansas played Wichita State last night at Hoglund Ballpark.
Kansas came out on the short end of an offensive explosion last night as Wichita State out-slugged the lavahwbs. 11-9.
"We got some hits, but they swung the bats real well and scored more than we did," Kansas junior left fielder A.J. Van Slake said.
After the Shockers (32-12) jumped out to a 1-0 lead in the first inning, the Jayhawks responded with three runs. Following a double by junior shortstop Ritchie Price, Van Slyke homered and gave the Jayhawks the lead. Kansas (24-19) added another run in the inning on a double by freshman second baseman Ryne Price, scoring senior catcher Sean Richardson and pushing the score to 3-1.
Wichita State clawed to within one run in the third inning only to see Kansas immediately extend its lead. A sacrifice fly by junior right fielder Gus Milner scored Price and made the score 4-2, and senior first baseman
Mike Dudley singled home Van Silky for a 5-2 advantage.
Kansas senior starting pitcher Mike Zagurski struggled to keep the Shockers at bay. He was relieved in the fourth inning after an RBI triple by Shockers senior utility player Phil Napolitan scored freshman third baseman Brian Spear and sophomore center fielder Blake Hurlbut, cutting the Kansas lead to one run. Freshman Tyson Corley kept Wichita State off the scoreboard the rest of the inning.
The Shockers scored three times in the fifth inning and took the lead. They took advantage of four walks by Kansas pitchers and held a 7-5 advantage. The Jayhawks escaped further damage when freshman third baseman Erik Morrison barehanded a slow roller and threw out Shockers sophomore first baseman Danny Jackson.
The Jayhawks tied the score in the bottom of the fifth on a home run by Milner. The two-run blast was Milner's eighth homer of the season.
Wichita State pitching coach Brent Kemnitz argued with third base mumpire Randy Wetzel.
Temps flared in the fifth when freshman second baseman Ryne Price was hit by a pitch
Wetzel yelled at Kennitz until the other umpires intervened and separated the two.
The two offenses took a
break in the sixth inning before re-igniting in the seventh. Wichita State scored three more times, this time off Kansas junior pitcher Don Czyz. A walk, two singles and a double produced the scoring for the
Shockers and gave them their biggest lead of the night at 10-7
Kansas came back yet again in the bottom half of the inning. RBI singles by junior infielder

'Huskers shucked out

Kansas 23
The Kansas softball team upset No. 24 Nebraska in a Big 12 Conference match-up yesterday in Lincoln, Neb. The Jayhawks were led by Christina Ross, freshman pitcher, who threw a complete-game shutout allowing only three hits.
Ross said she felt good on the mound and mixed up her pitches, keeping Nebraska off balance and striking out five.
"Me and Elle (Pottorf) were really in sync," Ross said of the freshman catcher.
Ross said the shutout was a collective effort with Pottorf behind the plate and solid defensive plays to help her.
Kris Kolden/DAILY NEBRASKAN
With her third shutout of the season, Ross moved to 9-6 on the season. Kansas improved to 20-18 overall and 3-7 in the conference.
"We played with a lot of confidence," coach Tracy Bunge said. "The team expects to win."
The Jayhawks made a fourinning rally and sealed the victory. Destiny Frankenstein, junior shortstop, ignited the offense with a home run. Serena Settlemier, junior pitcher/designated hitter, followed with a single, and Nettie Fierros, junior third baseman, drove her in with a double. Settlemier and Jessica Moppin, junior second baseman, led the team with two hits each.
The Jayahwaks are set to face No. 21 Creighton today in a doubleheader match-up.
"These games have importance for regional terms." Bunge said. "They're a team that finds a way to win."
"We need to have good pitching and hopefully we come out with at least a win tomorrow, if not two," Bunge said.
Bunge said she expected the team to come out competitively and confidently. The coach has said all season that success would begin on the mound.
The Bluejays have defeated the Cornhuskers two times this season.

Stars align for Kansas to win North

KANSAN SPORTSWRIETER
Remember Northwestern? Kansas had a fourth-quarter lead with less than 7 minutes to go, but the defense did not hold on, and kicker Johnny Beck did not send it into overtime on his game-tying field goal attempt.
The 2005 season will be different. Next year's defense will be the foundation of coach Mark Mangino's squad.
Remember Texas? Kansas had the game under control with a 10-point lead. If it were not for Texas quarterback Vince Young's amazing feet and a questionable pass interference call, Kansas would have held on.
With Charles Gordon, Theo Baines and Rodney Harris in the secondary, teams will find it hard to pass the ball down the field. They combined for 12 interceptions last year, Gordon, sophomore cornerback, had seven, which led the Big 12 Conference and the NCAA. The three also had 138 tackles between them.
Remember Texas Tech? Kansas built up a 30-5 lead only to let the Red Raiders score 26 unanswered points, ending the game.
Last year, the football team was close. The Jayhawks were so close that it still stings when I think about some of the games they could have won, but fell just short.
In 2004, Kansas lost seven games. Six of those games were lost by an average of less than five points.
However good the secondary may end up being, the strength of the defense lies with the linebackers. Nick Reid, Banks Floodman and Kevin Kane are some of the best the Big 12 has to offer. Last year they totaled 225 tackles. Nick Reid led the Big 12 with 109 total tackles. The linebackers helped Kansas become the fourth-best rushing defense in the Big 12 last year and will only improve with another year of experience.
"I liked the way our defense performed," Mangino said after Saturday's spring game. "We covered well, and we were sharp on our assignments and execution. We now have a little bit of depth on the defense."
With a solid defense, the Jayhawks have as good of shot as any team to win the Big 12 North. Last year, the schedule hurt their chances.

MURPH

Senior cornerback Donnie Amadi chases down junior wide receiver Brian Murph during the spring game last Saturday at Memorial Stadium. Murph impressed fans and coaches by grabbing seven passes for 110 yards and one touchdown.
Coach Mark Mangino knew what he was getting into when wide receiver Brian Murph committed to join the Hawkwinds in January.
"The coaches at Butler said 'Listen, the first couple weeks he's with you, you are going to look up in the air and say 'What is this guy doing?' He'll bust some routes, he'll make some mental mistakes and you'll say 'What the heck,' Mangino said referring to the coaches at Butler County Community College, where Murph transferred from this winter.
"Then about week three, the light started to come on, this past week he looked really smooth and today he hit stride," he said.
When Mangino talked about hitting stride, he was talking about last weekend's spring game. Murph caught seven passes for 110 yards, including a 53-yard touchdown pass from junior quarterback Jason Swanson.
"He's a very continuous guy," Mangino said. "He takes his football work very seriously and he is really tough on himself. He pressures himself incredibly hard, and he is a competitor."
It took some time for Murph to get acclimated with the offense at Kansas.
"Oh, Murph is incredible, just his athletic ability alone," sophomore quarterback Adam Barmann said. "You know when he first came in he was raw, he didn't really know what he was doing."
"His reputation in the Jayhawk
"It's all a learning process for him when he first got here," he said. "He knew how to be a receiver, just not in our offense."
Murph was a standout at Butler Community College. He led the team with six touchdown grabs last fall.
league is that he was reliable, dependable and shows up every day." Mangino said.
Murph is not the tallest or biggest receiver on the team at 6-foot-1 and 185 pounds, but it is his leaping ability that has impressed coaches and quarterbacks.
"He's just an incredible athlete, he's a huge weapon for us on the outside and we are glad to have him," Barmann said.
Murph is expected to shoulder a heavy load next season for a wide-receiving corps that lost its leading receiver in Brandon Rideau. The team's second-leading receiver, junior Mark Simmons, returns after catching 48 balls last season for 553 yards and three touchdowns.
Murph will join freshman Marcus Herford as receivers who are expected to see significant time next season
"They are hard workers, they have
great work ethic, and they are talented guys," sophomore cornerback and wide receiver Charles Gordon said of Murph and Herford.
Herford had three catches for 20 yards on Saturday. Herford is still transitioning into the wide receiver position after he was switched from quarterback to receiver midway through spring practices.

Singhelected to Golf Hall of Fame
BY DOUG FERGUSON THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Vijay Singh's arduous journey from Fiji reached another unimaginable destination yesterday when he was elected to the World Golf Hall of Fame with the lowest percentage of votes and help from a clause in criteria.
Singh was the only player elected from the PGA Tour ballot, receiving 56 percent of the vote.
“Coming from where I am, trying to make a living and never thinking about player of the year or the Hall of Fame, this was never in my wildest dreams,” Singh said from the Houston Open, where he is the defending champion. “This is what hard work does. It pays off.”
Few have worked harder than Singh, 42, a self-taught player from tiny Fiji who toiled on tours around the world until his career took off in America. He has 25 victories on the PGA Tour, won three major championships and late last year reached No. 1 in the world ranking.
But his election to the Hall of Fame was a close call.
Players from the PGA Tour and International ballot require 65 percent of the vote for election. Hall of Fame officials two years ago added a stipulation that if no one
gets 65 percent, the players with the most votes will be elected provided he is on at least 50 percent of the ballots.
It was the second time the Hall of Fame changed its criteria, lowering the standard from 75 percent to 65 percent in 2001 after no one from the PGA Tour was elected.
PETER B. MCKENNAMY
Larrv Nelson.
Singh
who won 10 times and three major championships, finished second in the voting with 55 percent.
Curtis Strange, the dominant American of his generation with 17 victories and the back-to-back U.S. Open titles, received 50 percent of the vote. Two-time major winners Henry Picard (49 percent) and Craig Woods (41 percent) rounded out the top five.
The World Golf Hall of Fame refused to say how many ballots were returned or how many votes Singh, Nelson and other candidates received; it only released percentages.
The induction ceremony is scheduled for Nov. 14 at the World Golf Village in St. Augustine, Fla., although it was not immediately clear when Singh would be inducted.
Officials noted at the end of the announcement that players had a right to defer their induction if the ceremony conflicted with their playing schedule, noting that Seve Ballesteros and Bernhard Langer each waited one year.
Karrie Webb from the LPGA Tour needs only to play 15 tournaments this year to be eligible for induction. Other inductees could come through the Veteran's Category or through Lifetime Achievement.
Singh was elected after turning in one of the best years in golf.
He became only the sixth player to win at least nine times on the PGA Tour, and shattered the single-season earnings record with nearly $11 million. Along the way, he picked up his third major by winning the PGA Championship in a playoff, and ended Tiger Woods' five-year reign At No. 1 in the world.
Woods recently returned to No. 1 by winning the Masters.
None of this seemed probable when Singh was sprinting across an airport runway in Fiji to get to the golf course, where he was one of the few kids in his country who owned a full set of clubs.
"There were only 500 guys that played golf in Fiji," Singh said. "To be where I am is really incredible. It's hard to even think about it. When you look at where I grew up, how I practiced, where I went from there ... you can't explain it in a few words."
He spent 30 years refining his swing, often studying pictures of Tom Weiskopf in magazines, and
continues to work endlessly on the practice range.
Singh was suspended from the Asian Tour in 1985 over allegations he doctored his scorecard, then worked as a club pro in Borneo trying to save his money to resurrect his career. He won the 1988 Nigerian Open, qualified for the European tour and finally made it to the PGA Tour in 1993, winning the rookie of the year.
He has gotten better with age.
Singh has won 13 times since turning 40—second only to Sam Snead's 17 wins after 40—and his 25 career victories tied him with Tommy Armour of Scotland as the most by an international player.
"This is amazing." Singh said. "It's an honor to be part of an incredible group that is in the Hall of Fame. There's no words to describe it. I'd like to thank everyone who helped me along the way. It's been a long, long journey; a hard journey. I never thought I'd get to where I am now."

Jayhawks shoot for regionals
Weekend offers opportunity for conference title
ance
By TRAVIS ROBINET

KANSAN SPORTSWRIETER
The women's golf team had one main goal for this season: to reach the NCAA Regional Tournament.
The Jayhawks' fate on reaching their goal rests on this weekend, when they will be playing for a Big 12 Conference title and a regional bid.
Kansas traveled to Austin, Texas, yesterday to play at the University of Texas Golf Club for the conference championship. Coach Erin O'Neil said the team did not have to finish at the top to make it to regionals.
"We don't have to do anything off the charts," she said. "just what we've been doing, middle of the pack."
TOP BIG 12 WOMEN GOLFERS
Even though the Jayhawks do not have to play extraordinary golf this weekend, extra pressure still mounts, as this will be their last tournament if they don't finish well. O'Neil said the Jayhawks would have to stay focused on playing the course
The Kansas women's golf team will need to finish in the middle of the pack at this weekends' Big 12 Conference Championship in order to reach the NCAA Regionals, conch Erin O'Neil said.
No KU golfer is in the conference's top 30 players in stroke average per round. Sophomore Amanda Costner sits on the edge with 76.80. Here are the top 10 golfers the Jayhawks will face this weekend.

the best they could in order to reach the regionals.
"It's never really spoken about, but that's our biggest goal right now," freshman Annie Giangrosso said. "Obviously we have to live in the present and focus on what we have at hand, but regionals is definitely one of those extra bonuses that is going to come if we play well."
The Jayhawks have been improving throughout the year and are peaking at the right time, O'Neil said.
Kansas is coming of one of its best performances of the season in West Lafayette, Ind., at the Lady Boilermaker Invitational. The Jayhawks finished in sixth place, and sophomore Amanda Costner placed first individually.
"I think they're real excited," O'Neil said. "Last week gave them a big boost. They feel good about it."
Besides improving, the team also has gained confidence.
Giangrosso said she thought she was playing her best golf of
the season. Costner, juniors Chelsey Pryor and Tiffany Woods and sophomore Jill Womble are also contributing to the team and look forward to playing their best, Giangrosso said.
"I think, for the most part, everyone's ready to go," she said. "I think it's important for us to all come together."
Kansas also has the advantage of playing on a familiar course. At the Betsy Rawls Invitational earlier this semester, the Jayhawks played at the University of Texas Golf Club. O'Neil said that experience would help.
"On this course it will be a definite advantage," she said. "It's not an easy course, but not unfair by any means. They will know ahead of time what shots to practice and will be more comfortable mentally."
O'Neil also said conference competition had a special feeling because only the conference teams were there.
"All your family is there and there is a banquet where they award player of the year, freshman of the year and All-Big 12," she said. "It comes with a lot of recognition."

Cubs juggle lineup move Garciaparra
MLB
ST. LOUIS — Nomar Garciaparra's .163 average landed him in the sixth spot of the Chicago Cubs' lineup for last night's game against the St. Louis Cardinals.
Garciaparra, who's been batting third all season, was in a 4-for-21 skid and had four RBIs on the season. He volunteered to move down in the order if it would help the team.
"I'm not going to be upset about it," Garciaparra said.
"I'm just struggling a little bit, just off. That's the nature of the game and I'll just keep working through it."
Derek Lee, who was batting .385 with a team-leading four home runs and 17 RBIs, switched places with Garciaparra in the lineup. Manager Dusty Baker thought it was best not to tinker with the rest of the order.
"He said, 'I'm not helping us now,'" Baker said. "He just wants to win and I know he feels bad about not contributing. He hasn't struggled this much in a long time."
Yankees in slump lead in tax debt
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — The struggling New York Yankees will be hit with a record luxury tax this year.
Initial projections by the commissioner's office based on opening-day rosters have the Yankees owing $30,637,531, according to information obtained this week by The Associated Press.
The only other team projected to edo w a tax is the World Series champion Boston Red Sox, who would pay $69,177.
Going into last night, the
Yankees were just 5-9, tied with Tampa Bay for last place in the American League East.
Teams with payrolls above $128 million owe tax this year. For the luxury tax, payrolls are based on the average annual values of contracts for all players on the 40-man roster and include benefits. Under that formula, the Yankees opened with a payroll of $204.6 million, followed by Boston ($131.2 million), the New York Mets ($116.4 million), the Los Angeles Angels ($111.2 million) and Seattle ($109.3 million).

MEN'S GOLF
Three-time reigning Big 12 champions have 12th best player in nation
BY TIM HALL

KANSAN SPORTWRITER
Nine days remain until the Big 12 Conference Championship Tournament begins at Whispering Pines Golf Course in Trinity, Texas. The Kansas men's golf team will enter the event coming off of a tie for ninth place at the Courtyard by Marriott Intercollegiate in Holly Springs, N.C. Here is another look at some of the teams the Jayhawks will see next week.
Oklahoma State
STATE
Both the Golfstat and Golf Week polls have ranked t h Cowbirds at
No. 1. Golf Week magazine ranked freshman Pablo Martin and sophomore Tyler Leon in the top 10. Martin was recently named a semifinalist for The Ben Hogan Award, the most prestigious award in college golf.
The Cowboys recently finished their regular season campaign by winning the Texas
A & M Invitational on Sunday at the Traditions Golf Club in Bryan, Texas. The victory marked the fifth tournament championship for O k l a h o m A State this season and the third of the spring. Leon led the way for the Cowboys with a three-round total of 213 and tied for third in the tournament. Pablo came in second for Oklahoma State with a tournament total of 218 and tied for eighth.

Longhorns are the reigning Big 12 champions. Golf Week ranked the Longhorns 19th in the nation and Golfstat ranked them 13th. Junior golfer Matthew Rosenfeld leads the

12th best player in the nation and he was recently named to the 2005 Palmer Cup team. The Palmer Cup is an event in which the best collegiate players in America play against the best in Europe.
As a team, Texas has not won a golf tournament all season, but they have maintained a high ranking because they have played some difficult courses.
I am very happy to be a part of the team. I enjoy playing soccer and being with my friends.

Golf Club, the Aggies home course, is also a Nicklaus design.
With a stroke average of 72.7, junior Andrew Parr is the most consistent player on the team. Freshman Robert Gates Jr. has played consistent golf as well, with a stoke average of 73.7. Recently, the Aggies struggled as they finished in 10th place at the inaugural Aggie Invitational at their home course in Bryan, Texas. Freshman Martin Pillar led the Aggies with a tie for 12th place. He fired three rounds in the 70s and shot 220 for the tournament. The Aggies will enter the championships ranked 36th in the nation in the Golf Week poll.
The tournament begins Friday, April 29.

IOC warns cities to be ethical
BY STEPHEN WILSON THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
BERLIN — Determined to avoid a return to the abuses and corruption of the past, IOC president Jacques Rogge warned the five cities vying for the 2012 Olympics to obey ethics rules and stay out of a "bidding war."
rogge chided New York and London yesterday for unveiling incentives in a late push for votes without clearing them first with the International Olympic Committee. He said the IOC could order the cities to withdraw the offers if they weren't included in the official bid documents submitted in November.
want to repeat."
"We understand the candidate cities want to do more, but they have to understand where we come from," Rogge said. "We come from a period of excesses, we come from a period of red carpet treatment, we come from a period of where we had a corruption scandal in Salt Lake City. This is something we don't
The IOC ethics commission opened an inquiry Tuesday into whether New York and London broke bidding rules by promising financial, promotional and marketing benefits to international sports federations, athletes and national Olympic committees.

OLDER.
onsor:
MINNEAPOLIS — Shannon Stewart's RBI single through a drawn-in infield in the eighth inning last night lifted the Minnesota Twins to a 5-4 victory against the Kansas City Royals.
Johan Santana, unbeaten in 19 starts since July 17, started the game less than an hour after the birth of his second child. Santana led 3-0 and was removed after seven innings with the scored tied 4-all.
With one out in the eighth, Lew Ford had an infield hit off reliever Jaime Cerda (1-2) and advanced to second on third baseman Joe McEwing's throwing error. Terry Tiffee was intentionally walked, and both runners moved up on a wild pitch. Michael Cuddyer was intentionally to load the bases.
Stewart then hit his RBI grounder to left, helping the Twins end a three-game losing streak.

Cubs' Garciaparra suffers groin injury ST. LOUIS, Nomar
Garciparra was carried off the field with an injured left groin that likely will land him on the 15-day disabled list for an extended period, tempering an impressive outing by Carlos Zambrano in a 3-1 victory that ended the St. Louis Cardinals' five-game winning streak last night.
ST. LOOIS - Natalia Garciaparra took two steps out of the batters' box, then collapsed in pain.
"It's not good, it's a bad groin," manager Dusty Baker said. "
The Cubs feared the worst, a torn groin, for the star shortstop they acquired at the trade deadline last July.
"I've strained my groin before but I’ve never felt anything like this before," Garciaparra said. "it’s kind of a freak thing."
Hopefully it's not as bad as anticipated, but we know it's not good - especially for a shortstop."

Stars CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B
Kansas played only two home games against Big 12 North opponents and three road games. Next season, the schedule is reversed. Nebraska, Missouri and Iowa State all come to Memorial Stadium, while Kansas travels only to Kansas State and Colorado.
Kansas' defense will hold its opponents to less than 20 points per game. If the offense finds a way to average three touchdowns per game, Kansas will win the Big 12 North.
The main reason the Jayhawks
have a good chance is the lack of a standout team in their division. Only Colorado and Iowa State had enough victories to gain bowl eligibility in 2004.
DANIEL SMITH
Robinett is an Austin, Texas, sophomore in journalism.
Wichita State's Derek Schermerhorn, sophomore third baseman, tries to avoid a tag from Mike Zagurski, senior pitcher, during a run-down in the third inning of the Jayhawks' match-up against the Shockers at Hoolund Ballpark.
Jared Schweitzer and freshman outfielder Brock Simpson got the Jayhawks to within one run, but that was as close as they would get. Junior center fielder Matt Baty popped out to second base with the bases loaded, ending the threat. Wichita State added an insurance run in the eighth inning to win 11-9. Freshman pitcher Max Hutson picked up the win out of the bullpen for the Shockers. His record improves to 2-1. Czyz took the loss in the contest, dropping to 3-2 on the year. Senior Damon Sublett pitched the last 1 2/3 innings for the save after playing second base up to then.

Wichita State stranded a total of 16 base runners. Kansas left nine on base. Kansas coach Ritch Price said he was pleased with the way his offense was clicking but was disappointed in the loss.
we would go to the bulpen,
Price said. "Obviously he wasn't as good as he normally is.
That was a good performance offensively by both teams, and they got the clutch hits when they needed them."
Van Slyke said the team knew that it would have to keep scoring to win on a night like last night when both teams were hitting well.
"We came out early, scored some runs and felt good," he said. "But we knew five wasn't going to be enough."
"It it was big for us after the Baylor series to get back on track." Price said.
"I thought we could get five innings from Zagurski and then
Price thought that it was important to get on a roll offensively going into this weekend.
Kansas takes on Texas Tech in Lubbock, Texas, this weekend in a crucial three-game series. Wichita State will play Creighton in a Missouri Valley Conference series at home.

Unhappy cornerback traded to Texans
Player satisfied to leave Oakland
BY JANIE McCAULEY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ALAMEDA, Calif. — The man who calls himself "Showtime" is leaving the Oakland Raiders, and both sides appear happy to be parting ways.
The Raiders traded disgruntled cornerback Phillip Buchanan to the Houston Texans for two draft picks Tuesday, nearly four months after he publicly ridiculed the franchise with no warning leading into the final game.
"This gives us another young player at a position that is hard to come by."Capers said. "He has all of the things that you look for in that position. He has the natural skill to come in and play for us."
Texans general manager Charley Casserly confirmed the deal yesterday, but said it wouldn't be official until Buchanon passed a physical and the NFL completed the required paperwork.
Oakland will receive a second-round and third-round pick in this weekend's NFL draft.
Texans coach Dom Capers praised Buchanon's speed and athletic ability.
The Raiders had been trying to trade Buchanon in recent weeks. The team talked to the Washington Redskins about the
self-assured Buchanon, who typically refers to himself in the third person and arrived at training camp in 2003 as a second-year pro in a limousine and wearing a fancy pajama suit.
Oakland traded its firstround draft selection — seventh overall — to Minnesota for Randy Moss and won't make its first pick until sixth in the second round, 38th overall.
With the Buchanan trade, the Raiders will pick 47th overall.
They already had the 69th pick in the third round and now also will receive one of Houston's two picks that round.
Buchanon, the Raiders' first- round pick in 2002 out of Miami, went off about the organization just four days before Oakland (5-11) ended another disappointing season with a home loss to Jacksonville.
"I mean there is a lot of stuff that goes on here and it ain't right." he said at the time. "I am not feeling too good here. I am not happy with the organization. Things ain't good right now. I know that."
Buchanon said he spoke with team personnel chief Michael Lombardi late in the season to express his desire to go elsewhere.

He was briefly benched last season for his poor play, but also had plenty of impressive
Buchanon
moments that showcased his playmaking ability.
"The way I am feeling about the Raiders, I am not happy," B u c h a n o n said. "I am just not happy
with the organization right now.
I am looking forward to a possible trade with somebody else."
Buchanon's agent told Casserly that Buchanon was happy to be headed to Houston, where he would be teammates with close friend Andre Johnson.
A message left on Buchanon's cell phone went unreturned Tuesday night.
Buchanon has 11 career interceptions, including four returned for touchdowns, in 36 games. He has averaged 11 yards per punt return with three TDs in three NFL seasons.
Last season, Buchanon had 50 tackles and three interceptions, one for a TD, in 14 games. He missed the final two games with a bruised tailbone
Texans officials said they expect to finalize the deal and introduce Buchanon at a news conference today in Houston.
The Raiders selected Buchanon with the 17th overall pick in 2002.
NFL
Player overcomes scandals improves game,enters draft
BY JOE MILICIA
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
It's been more than two years since Clarett scored the touchdown that gave Ohio State its first national title in 34 years.
Maurice Clarett's long, strange trip to the NFL is nearing its end. Maybe.
Then came legal troubles, NCAA violations and a failed lawsuit against the NFL. A player once spoken of with the kind of awe reserved for a young talent like LeBron James had become synonymous with controversy and poor character.
Now, Clarett is saying and doing all the right things enough, perhaps, for a team to select him in this weekend's NFL draft.
Gil Brandt, the NFL's draft consultant, knows Clarett hasn't dazzled anyone with his speed. After a disastrous showing at the NFL combine, Clarett improved last month at a private workout near his hometown of Warren, Ohio, running a 4.67-second 40-yard dash.
PETER LARRISON
Don't look for Clarett to get drafted any earlier than the fifth round, said Mike Mayock, draft analyst for the NFL Network.
Brandt points to Clarett wrestling the ball away from Sean Taylor after an interception — one of the most memorable plays of Ohio State's 31-24 victory over topranked Miami in the 2003 Fiesta Bowl — for an example of why Clarett is worth drafting.
Clarett
It was a play that took great football sense, something his representatives have been promoting in recent weeks.
Clarett rushed for 1,237 yards and 16 touchdowns as a freshman at Ohio State despite missing three games with injuries.
Clarett was charged with misdemeanor falsification for filing a police report claiming that more than $10,000 in clothing, CDs, cash and stereo equipment was stolen from a car he borrowed from a local dealership. He later pleaded guilty to a lesser charge.
Ohio State athletic director Andy Geiger announced in September 2003 that Clarett was suspended for the season for receiving special benefits worth thousands of dollars from a family friend, and for misleading investigators.
"I guess it was a part of growing up and becoming who I am today. I did do some things I shouldn't have done." Maurice Clarett Former running back
Clarett then challenged the NFL's rule that a player must be out of high school three years to be eligible for the draft. Initially, a judge ruled in his favor, but an appellate court overturned the decision.
Clarett continued making headlines for all the wrong reasons, including his allegations that coach Jim Tressel arranged for him to get passing grades, cars and money for bogus summer jobs.

Former coach devotes himself to helping out

KANSAN SPORTWRITER
Bob Timmons sat in an old, torn green leather chair next to the fireplace in his basement.
Several paintings were framed on the wall next to him, with his name written neatly in the lower right-hand corner. They depicted South Africans, a farm cabin and Jim Ryun, all signifying proud moments from the life of the 80-year-old man who coached track and field and cross country at Kansas from 1965 to 1988.
Bob Timmons has touched the lives of hundreds of people, from building a track in 1994 for the residents of a poor South African community to coaching thousands of athletes.
The 'great motivator'
But he will likely be remembered most for coaching Jim Ryun, the first American high-school student to break the 4-minute mile when he ran 3:59 in 1964. Timmons first coached Ryun at Wichita East High School and then at the University of Kansas.
Ryun likes to tell a story about Timmons, one that he feels sums up his former coach best:
He was a high school sophomore, in his first year competing in track and field, and was sitting on the bus on the way to a race.
Ryun had run in just a few races, and his best mile time was about 4:21. He had been feeling pretty good about the way he'd been running.
Timmons called Ryun up to the front of the bus, sat him down and told him for the first time that he though he could break the national high school record of 4:08.
In the same breath, Timmons told him he had the potential to be the first high school miler to break four minutes.
Ryun said Timmons' belief didn't just give him the confidence to break the 4-minute mile, it changed his life.
"He was a great inspirer, a great visionary and a great motivator," Ryun said.
Stephanie Farley/KANSAN
Jim Ryun is just one of the young men Timmons inspired.
The statistician
Don Steffens was a manager on Timmons' track and cross country teams for three years at Wichita East and two years at the University. At every practice at Wichita East, Timmons had him and the other five managers keep detailed statistics on each athlete, which they would hand to the athletes as they stepped out of the shower.
When Steffens was a high school senior, in the winter of Jim Ryun's junior year, Timmons sent him to run Ryun's workouts. Coaches weren't allowed to during the offseason.
He would record Ryun's times.
Steffens said he would still be working for Timmons today if he could. He now lives in Andover, where he is an apartment manager and self-professed track nut.
type them up and bring them back to Timmons.
He has been the announcer at the Kansas Relays and the Kansas State Track and Field Championship meet for about 30 years. He also worked for Track & Field News for 18 years, first as a writer, then as an editor.
Steffens' voice chokes up a little when he talks about Timmons.
Bob Timmons, KU track and field coach from 1965 to 1988, tried one of those paint-by-number pictures in 1954. It didn't turn out very well, so he put it away and forgot about it. When he retired from coaching in 1988, Timmons started back up on art. "I thought, well, I'll try doing some other painting," he said. Timmons sculpts, paints and writes poetry to accompany some paintings. One of his favorite paintings is of Jim Ryun, whom he coached at Wichita East for three years, four years at the University of Kansas and some coaching after Ryun graduated.
"He's the one that really got me interested in track and field," he said. "He's one of the heroes of my life."
** **
Timmons suddenly stood up, walked swiftly to the adjoining room and opened several drawers of a large metal file cabinet, searching for a statistic.
He had been talking about legendary Kansas track coach Bill Faston, the man he replaced in 1965.
208
He opened a drawer and puller out one blue and two brown folders
"Aw, heck!" he said, moving across the room and laying the folders on top of other papers on his cluttered desk. The search for Easton's statistics was particularly important to him.
"I'll keep looking for it and give you a call when I find it," he said. "We're talking about one of the nation's greatest coaches. I don't want to mess it up when talking about what the statistics really are. As you know, track and field is a sport of statistics. I just have to make sure we get it right."
In 1954, when he was the swimming coach at Wichita East, Timmons had a coaching revelation.
Change in style
Wichita East lost the meet, but one of its swimmers, Jeff Farrell, won the 220-yard freestyle and set a national record for his age group. He had been merely an above-average swimmer up to that point.
After graduating from the University of Kansas in 1950 with a master's degree in physical education, he had spent two years at a high school in Caldwell and one in Emporia, coaching various sports with little success.
Timmons was dumfounded by Farrell's performance. He and Farrell's father walked into the Coffeyville coach's office and Timmons said, "Johnny, I don't know anything about this. How do you get a record recognized?"
When he moved to Wichita in 1954, he started to coach swimming at Wichita East. One day, the team had a meet against Coffeyville, which had won the state meet six years in a row.
"I don't want to interfere with your coaching," he said. "But I just happen to have a certificate to apply for the national record."
The coach told him he would have to fill out a form and send it to the national swimming body.
Then, Farrell's father spoke up.
Timmons' coaching career changed forever at that moment.
seeing how much faith the father had in his son.
"Jeff hadn't come close in practice, but he had so much belief in him," he said. "Remember, I was the guy losing all those meets, all those basketball games, and you're talking about a national record? From that moment on my teams were always doing the best we could do."
He started taking national age group record forms to every swimming and track and field meet, pushing his athletes to go for national records.
"Then here's what happened to me," he said. "As I go through the halls at Wichita East, I start looking at all these guys wondering. 'How many did I go by that might have beer national champions?'
***
Timmons stood back up and walked over to his desk.
He opened a folder and pulled out a sheet of paper. It was a record one of his old managers had typed up of someone's splits for a day of practice when he was coach at Wichita East.
He set the paper aside and passed by his old megaphone on the way to the adjoining room. He pulled out record books he had made when he was volleyball coach at Baldwin City High School from 1992 to 1998, continuing to search through a lifetime of papers for a statistic on Easton's coaching career.
"I want to do right by Bill Easton," he said. "You know, he's passed away, and I don't want to be inaccurate."
He found a brown folder containing five groups of stapled-together papers and a Sports Illustrated with Jim Ryn on the cover.
The papers contained Ryun's practice schedule for the weeks leading up to June 5, 1964, when the 17-year-old Ryan ran a 3:59 mile and became the first high school runner to break 4 minutes. His splits for the famous race were typed next to the target times Timmons had set for each of the 110 vards of the race.
Timmons' goal for Ryun was
3:59.0. the exact time he ran
He pulled out a 1966 media guide, sat down and thumbed through it.
Staying busy
"There it is," Timmons said, reading some of Bill Easton's records as coach. "Three individual cross country champions, one team championship, two outdoor track national championships."
Timmons has been somewhat of a Renaissance man since he retired from Kansas in 1988. He began to paint, make sculptures and write poetry.
A bronze bust of one of his two grandchildren sits in the living room of the house that his wife, Pat, keeps extremely tidy, a sharp contrast to the basement.
Clay sculptures he made of Kansas greats Gale Sayers, Wilt Chamberlain and Lynette Woodard reside in the basement. His paintings adorn the walls of many of the rooms.
A poem entitled "Our Ole Barn" hangs framed on the wall in his basement under a painting of his cabin at Rim Rock Farm, the cross country course north of Lawrence that he's built and maintained since the 1970s. He donated the land to the University last Tuesday, something he'd been planning to do for a long time.
Portraits of South Africans hang on the wall adjacent to the painting of the cabin. He went to South Africa in 1993 with Paul Taylor, associate pastor of the local Mustard Seed Christian Fellowship, where they worked with a missionary named Iaie Venter.
Timmons returned to South Africa the next year and was instrumental in building a track, starting a track and field program, and introducing volleyball to one of the villages.
In July, he and Taylor attended the dedication of a new translation of the New Testament in the Solomon Islands.
While there, Timmons visited the island of Guadalcanal, where he had been stationed as a member of the Marines in World War II.
Timmons plans to return to Africa next year to see Venter, who is now stationed in Zambia. He has a box full of plans in his basement, including ones to build another track and set up sports programs.
"He's been involved in many many ways in people's lives, in ways that most people will never see or know." Taylor said. "He's a remarkable man."

"Julius has to do the same thing against Olympians, and his experience level will be different," coach Stanley Redwine said. "Hopefully he will step up."
Jiles said that his decision to come to Kansas came down to where he felt most comfortable.
"I just wanted to be around that crowd and that atmosphere," jiles said.
minutes after the Relays ended. He agreed to commit to Kansas after talking to coach Stanley Redwine.
When Jiles steps into Memorial Stadium this weekend, last year's success will precede him.
Jiles' confidence has come along with the races he has won. He runs with a swagger that not many freshmen possess. After running three races at the Tom Botts Invitational last weekend, Jiles said it had become easy.
"I really hope that I can duplicate what I did," Jiles said. "Hopefully I can beat some of those Olympians."
"He will be excited to compete against the best." Brewer said. "He's not one to step down. He's got a really winning attitude that comes with his success."
If last year's victory is a sign of the times, losing won't be an issue.

Hurdles coach Elisha Brewer said that Jiles absolutely hated to lose.

For Wilson, 2005 will be her third year on the committee. Wilson described the itinerary for a relay committee chairman.

"It's really an all-year deal." Mevers said.

"The relay committee is the backbone of the Kansas Relays staff." Weaver said. "To think that a group of 50 undergrads are willing to volunteer year-round for nothing more than a t-shirt, pizza and pat on the back is really impressive."
"We have 39 Olympic athletes coming," Wilson said. "This will be the only time people will get to see all of them in Kansas for the rest of their life."

Also, the foursome of Jeremy Mims, Benson Chesang, Cameron Schwehr and Matt Baysinger beat out some of the top college teams in the nation to win the distance medley relay at the Texas Relays on April 9.
Recent Kansas graduates Leo Bookman, Charlie Gruber and Scott Russell will all compete in the Gold Zone. Bookman graduated last year and holds the school records in the 200-meter and 60-meter sprints. Gruber, a 200 graduate, ran the 1,500-meter in last summer's Athens Olympic Games. Russell made history in 2002, when he was a senior, by becoming the only person in NCAA history to win the javelin and hammer throw at NCAA Championships.
Some of those who saw the greats of the past
saw this year's meet could match up pretty well.
"I think this is going to be one of the best Relays in the history of the meet, at least in the last 40 years or so that I've been going," said Del Shankel, former professor and chancellor and a meet official since 1966.

KANSAS RELAYS
Relays lead to long days, nights
Hundreds of people combine to bring Kansas Relays to life
BY FRANK TANKARD
ftankard@kansan.com
KANSAN SPORTWRITER
Putting the Kansas Relays together is no small task. It takes hundreds of people.
There are meet officials and volunteers, announcers, a maintenance and grounds crew, student volunteers, a video crew, alumni and Kansas Athletics Department staff, just to name a few.
In the center of all the madness is meet director Tim Weaver, who works yearround to plan the event. Doesn't sound too hard, right? Well, it won't be in a couple of weeks.
But lately, Weaver has been working 18-hour days. That would be 90 hours a week, if he worked five days a week. But he's been working seven.
"I do go home at least to eat breakfast," he said.
Here's a snapshot of Weaver's office on the second floor of Allen Fieldhouse at 10 a.m. on a recent morning
D. J. Hilding, one of the five Kansas Relays interns and a member of the track team, sits at a computer. Phil Montgomery, a retired math professor and Relays volunteer, proofreads an entry list at a desk. Debbie Luman, the track and field office assistant, answers the desk phone while Weaver talks on his cell phone.
Meet posters are strewn across the floor waiting to be hung in Topeka, Wichita and Kansas City.
Resting on chairs and on the floor in some tangled order are admission buttons, officials' wristbands, megaphones, four helium tanks for 2,000 blue and gold balloons
all-access passes, 84 12-packs of soda, 15 softballs for a children's clinic, coloring sheets for schools and day cares, meet schedules and Weaver's running shoes.
One corner of the room is dominated by an army of boxes that threatens to overrun the room.
"I don't even want to talk about that corner," Weaver said.
During the 45 minutes away from his cell phone and computer, Weaver missed nine calls and received 38 new e-mails.
Earlier that morning he had talked to a coach from Wichita State wanting to get an athlete into an invitational event; a T-shirt manufacturer who said that 2,000 Relays hats and visors that had been shipped from China were stuck in a customs office in Kansas City; a woman from the Bahamas trying to get a team into the meet at the last minute; the family of an official who had had emergency knee surgery and needed to be replaced; and an ice vendor.
"I talk to 100 people a day," he said. "It's my staff and assistants that keep that number lower than it could be."
Whew.
Meanwhile, across campus a team of facilities workers prepared Memorial Stadium for the meet.
George Barnes, grounds supervisor, said the hardest part was prepping the area northeast of the stadium for the throwing events.
"It's a parking lot during football season," he said. "So it's quite a challenge."
Two men who have been putting in hour of overtime at the stadium during the last couple weeks are Dennis Kennedy, carpenter, and Roger Bartels, general maintenance.
Kennedy said the crew couldn't do much of its work until after last Saturday's preseason football scrimmage in the stadium. This week the crew of about 10 people has been out tearing down the goalposts, setting up the pole vault and sand pits, installing a rubber railing around the inside of the track and putting flags on top of the scoreboard.
"Basically, whatever they need and whatever they ask for, we'll do it," Kennedy said.
Bartels led a six-man crew last week who blew the leaves and debris out of the stands and cleaned the bathrooms, locker rooms, concourses and the turf on the field.
Bartels will be in charge of an eight-man team who will keep the stadium clean during the meet.
"It's a full-time chore keeping up with the trash and with the volume of people at the stadium during the Relays," he said.
While the grounds and maintenance crew were busy getting the stadium ready this week, the 54 members of the Student Relays Committee were also at work, doing various odd jobs to assist Weaver and spread word of the meet through campus.
Kelly Wilson, one of the three people who head the committee, was at Memorial Stadium from 3 to 9 p.m. on Sunday. She said the night before several people were there until 3 a.m. And she only expected things to get crazier as the date of the meet approached.
"There's always something to do," Wilson, Plainville senior, said, "whether it's something little or something big."
She said the committee had been blanketing campus and Lawrence with posters, signs and schedules, sending letters to alumni and doing too many other miscellaneous tasks to account for all of them.
doing all the small chores, Tony Daniels, athletic events coordinator, was looking at the big picture.
While many people were
He had worked to put together the event surrounding the track meet, meaning he had organized activities such as a Hy-Vee-sponsored shopping cart race for charity and a basketball tournament put on by the Vietnamese Student Association.
Another person looking at the big picture was Cliff Wiley, a former Kansas track and field sprint star, Olympian and world record holder, who now runs a law firm and lives in Kansas City, Kan.
Rachel Seymour/KANSAM
Wiley is one of the 37 members of the Greater Relays Committee, which ranges from people who work in the Kansas track and field office to former athletes and longtime fans.
Wiley said the committee met at least once a month for more than half of the year to make sure the meet was in the right direction.
As the final days leading up to the meet approach, and everyone works furiously to wrap up the preparation, those who do most of their work during the three days of the meet get ready.
this includes about 400 officials and volunteers, Weaver said, who come from throughout the state and even the nation to work the meet.
One of the officials who has been at it the longest is Del Shankel, former University chancellor and professor among ever things.
Shankel has officiated the meet nearly every year since about 1966, he said, usually as a timer or judge at the finish line. He said he wouldn't find out what he'd be doing this year until shortly before the meet.
Another person who will be busy during the Relays is Mike Lickert, who coordinates the

video board.
It takes a video crew of 16 to 18 people, he said, to run four or five cameras and coordinate the clips, live video and instant replays that are shown on the screen.
"It's like putting on a live TV show for 10 hours," Lickert said.
He said he had worked for weeks to type and organize the slides that would go on the screen at the start of each event. Each slide includes two slates: one that shows the name of the event, and another that shows the Kansas Relays record, American record and world record.
"In all, that's probably about 250 individual slates," he said.

track events, has announced the meet for about 30 years.
Steffens said he prepared for the meet by going through hundreds of pages of statistics from state and national meets.
Steffens tries to say something about each athlete as they step up to the starting line, he said, meaning he had to research thousands of athletes.
"There's a lot to do to get ready for it, obviously," he said. "A lot of it is getting up on the sport."
After the last event is finished on Saturday, as long as the weather holds out and all goes well, the people who put on the Kansas Relays will likely breathe a collective sigh of relief, grateful for the meet's conclusion.
For Weaver, it means it's time to get to work on next year's meet, the planning of which has already begun.

Panel discusses evolution
Experts say new standards could hurt the economy
BY TY BEAVER
teaver@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
As the hearings on the state's science standards for K-12 students approach, a panel of University of Kansas students and faculty, along with other experts and scientists said changes devaluing evolution in the standards could harm the state's economy.
Several members of the
Sitting at the front of the sanctuary of Plymouth Congregational Church, 925 Vermont St., the panelists discussed their unhappiness with the necessity of the meeting.
panel, which met yesterday, said this was a response to what they said was the Kansas Board of Education's agenda to make intelligent design part of the science curriculum. They said that the bioscience industry would not want to come to a state that did not value science and that people would not move to a state with a educational system that was perceived as backward.
"I can't express pleasure to be here because it feels like we're

in a time machine going back to the 1700s," Leonard Krishtalka, director of the KU Natural History Museum, said.
Each of the seven members of the panel spoke briefly on an area that the board's final decision could affect. Effects on the state's economy and education were two subjects discussed the most.
Because the state legislature passed the Kansas Bioscience Initiative in 2004, Charles Decedue, executive director of the Higuchi Biosciences Center, said it was critical that the quality of science education stay high.
In his opening remarks, John Burch, Plymouth church member, said that the panel would attempt to answer the questions the board should be asking before they made their decision in May.
The initiative involves spending $500 million dollars to attract companies to the state and make it a leader in bioscience industry and research, Decedue said. Twenty-thousand jobs could result from the initiative.
"The question is whether K- 12 students will qualify for those 20,000 bioscience jobs," he said.
Students and faculty commented on how downplaying evolution in the classroom would affect education.
Andrew Stangl said his school didn't teach evolution as a result of the board's science standards changes in 2001.
He learned about evolution
because he took the time outside of school to learn it, said the Andover sophomore and president of the KU chapter of the Society of Open-Minded Atheists and Agnostics.
Rachel Robson, Lawrence medical student, will graduate this August. She said she would like to stay in Kansas to work but was concerned that jobs in the bioscience industry could be scarce.
"There are native Kansans that want to stay but may have nowhere to [work]." she said.
Panelists also answered questions from the audience of about 50 people.

Beer decision on hold
Final proposal to be drawn up May 7 for beer sales in Union
BY DANIEL BERK
dberk@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITE
Nearly three months after a proposal was made, there is still no decision on whether beer sales will be allowed in the Kansas Union.
The next step in the process will happen May 7, at the Memorial Corporation board meeting. The board is composed of 24 students, faculty and staff. In a February 2005 meeting, the board unanimously approved a plan to look into bringing responsible alcohol sales back to the Union. Responsible alcohol sales include giving customers bracelets once they enter the joybowl region, not letting customers purchase more than one drink at a time and scanning
people's identification cards.
At the next meeting, the board will finalize a formal proposal that will be given to the top two administrators at the University, Chancellor Robert Hemenway and Provost David Shulenburger. Hemenway and Shulenburger will make the final decision.
Marlesa Roney, vice provost for student success and a member of the board, said once a proposal is given to the Hemenway and Shulenburger, the most important thing that will have to be done is to talk to members of the community and gain feedback.
"There are some people who think this is a bad idea," Roney said. "Once we have the proposal it will be important to talk to the community as a whole and see what they think."
Roney said Hemenway and Shulenburger had not reached a decision on the idea because

KSU union beer sales profitable

Officials at the University of Kansas need only look west on I-70 to see that union liquor sales won't bring negative effects to campus.
Kansas State has sold 3.2 percent beer in its student union since 1995, and no major problems have occurred during the past decade, said K-State recreation manager Teri Eddy.
The K-State union, which holds 16 bowling lanes, several pool tables and a Subway restaurant, sells beer behind the front desk. Three beers are

always on tap — Budweiser, Bud Light and Coors Light — and several other alcoholic beverages, such as Mike's Hard Lemonade, are kept in a refrigerator in the back.
All beer is poured into plastic cups before given to customers for safety reasons, and pitchers are never used. On-tap beers can be purchased for $2 in 16 ounce cups, or $1.50 in 12 ounce cups. Beer sales stop at 1 in the morning.
Eddy said the union tried its hardest to cut down on underage drinking. On busy nights, wrist bands were given to of-age customers to control underage drinking. Patrons could purchase only one beer at a time, as

Editor's Note
PENGYING QIAN
I came to the University of Kansas my junior year as a transfer student, convinced that everyone but me knew all the dirty tricks of campus.
I thought perhaps freshmen had secret meetings in their dorm rooms discussing which parking lots were never full, how many times you needed to pound on certain vending machines to get free soda and which classes you could take and never have to show up. I remember being really pissed off during the last week of one of my Spanish classes when I overheard some students talking about a Web site they'd found on Blackboard that had had the correct answers to the majority of the homework we'd done during the semester. I had been sweating it out the old-fashioned way, actually doing all the verb conjugations myself. Parking lot "turking" was also a novel concept for me. The first time someone slowly drove behind me when I was walking to my car, I thought they wanted to give me a ride home.
Well, we're here to give you a few more sly tips to use to your advantage. On page 17, Lynn Hamilton tells you how to pass Western Civil without doing any of the assigned reading and gives you an almost fair-proof way to score a parking spot. Because we here at Japlay think lessons in corruption are as important as anything you could learn in class.

Stocked kitchen By Maha Masud, Jayplay writer
Tips for storing fresh fruit
from Nancy O'Connor, director of education and outreach at the Marc.
Take the apples out of the bag immediately after coming home from the store and refrigerate them. If they are sealed up with one bad apple, you know the saying.
Oranges should also be refrigerated.
Karen and Robbie
Oranges should also be grown.
Separate vegetables and fruit in the refrigerator; they function differently and have different needs.
Once a week, open the produce drawer,
clean it and rotate the fruit. This also helps
you remember what you have, so it's a
 money-saver because you don't buy more
than you need.
If grocery shopping has got you down, and you feel like you never have anything to eat, here are some tips to keep your kitchen crammed with good stuff.
Going
**GOING** home is great for a lot of reasons. You can see the family, you can do some laundry and — of course — you can dig into some home cooking. The supply of good food at home seems endless. A college kitchen isn't quite as bountiful, but the key to getting that kitchen full of food you want to eat is shopping smart.
Ideally you want your own kitchen filled with appetizing edibles so you can whip up something at any time, for you or for some friends. Realistically, students' time and money budgets don't always allow for buying expensive, tasty food. Navigating the aisles of a grocery store can be an overwhelming experience that leaves you with a lot of food you probably won't eat and less money in your pocket. The dizzying selection of food can be a distraction, so you end up buying things you don't really need at the time.
David Ziser, Wichita junior, wants to have better food around his place for when he decides to cook a meal. He doesn't really know what to get at grocery stores and often ends up with more than he needs or things he doesn't need.
"Sometimes I have to be careful because there is so much stuff I want to get, but I have to watch my money." Ziser says. Because he doesn't have the luxury of time or money to buy everything he wants, he says that the food he usually buys already looks like it will when he eats it and requires minimal preparation.
Using common, inexpensive ingredients is something that Dave Lieberman says is a must when making food at home.
Grocery Shopping 101
He is the host of the show Good Deal with Dave Lieberman on the Food Network, and also the author of the cookbook Young and Hungry: More Than 100 Recipes for Cooking Fresh and Affordable Food. He uses his experiences from college to come up with ways to get more bang for your buck when it comes to preparing food and has some advice on what to keep around your place. The key, he says, is to have a well-stocked kitchen. That starts in the grocery store.
Lieberman says when you enter the grocery store, first look around to see what's fresh and what's on sale. Then he says to find "long-life" staple foods, which are essential because they prepare a kitchen for any situation, from getting a craving for Chinese stir-fry to making a meal for friends that randomly drop by. In his book he lists items such as pasta, rice, canned chopped tomatoes, white and brown sugar and different types of broth. Before you lose your focus, Lieberman suggests concentrating on the fresh produce and meat section, because those

Choosing fresh fruit is difficult for many students, and that should be included in everyone's kitchen, says Nancy O'Connor, director of education and outreach at the Community Mercantile, 901 Iowa St.
Munching on fruit is a great healthy snack, so store some in your kitchen. It will not only benefit your body, but also your tongue and your friends will thank you when you make fruit salads, smoothies or parfaits with it.
Ziser says he doesn't put too much thought into buying fresh fruit because he assumes it's too expensive. "Why buy it when I can get 16 ounces of frozen strawberry goodness for $1.50?" he says.
Finding fruit
items will usually cost you the most. One tip he gives is to look for chicken with the skin on and bone in. He says this kind is tasty, inexpensive and works perfectly in his recipe for roast chicken.
price. She says the best option is seasonal fruit because it's both easy on the pocket and pleasing to the palette. Big bags of Red Delicious apples beckon customers with promises of bargains, but don't be fooled. O'Connor says that these are not the most delicious apples, and suggests students try varieties that they haven't had before, such as Fuji and Pink Lady. These are in season now, as are pears, oranges and berries. Another way to save money on fruit, O'Connor says, is to only buy what you can eat and not waste any.
Next time you go to the grocery store, take the time to look around and see what it has to offer. Buy the basics, but don't be afraid to explore. You might not recreate your parent's kitchen exactly, but you'll come out with food that you can enjoy, and your friends will, too.
O'Conner says to buy the best fruit, take the time to browse the produce section and not base your purchases solely on

**Food type:** If you're looking for some serious barbecue taste, this is your place. Order the large turkey leg à la carte ($9.50) and you'll find it covers the entire plate. Entrees come with a choice of two sides, such as a bowl of creamy potato salad or spicy baked beans, plus pickles and bread. It's enough to satisfy even the biggest stomach.
**Price Range:** Appetizers with smoked chicken wings and onion rings are $3 to $6. The a la carte menu ranges in price from the Small Sandwich ($4.95) to the full slab spare ($13.50). Entrees range in price from $6.50 to $14.95. If you happen to be out with a group, the family specials are a deal: the small ($24.95) feeds four to six people, and the large ($55.95) feeds up to 10.
Attire requirements: Casual.
Date-worthiness: Not the greatest. The wood floors and
paneling allow voices to travel, so it's a little loud.
Booze availability: They've got domestics and premiums in bottles and on tap. Pabst Blue Ribbon from the can is $1.50. There's also wine, margaritas and smoked Bloody Marys, all $4.50 each.

Green trucks, green' thumbs

Spring comes to life on campus
Every
Every spring, students at the University of Kansas weave around maintenance trucks that hop over the curbs onto the packed sidewalks. Uniformed workers armed with garden tools and hoses spill from the trucks' doors and scrape to various areas along Jayhawk Boulevard. These are some of the busiest times for Facilities Operations landscaping crews. They work full time throughout the year to keep campus beautiful, but they seem especially busy around the time when students break out their flip-flops and visitors roam campus with the help of backward-walking tour guides.
6 Jayplay 04.21.05
The laborers are now in full bloom. Magnolias and white-blossomed pear trees offer shade and sweet smells. On Fraser lawn, students often study, relax or play Frisbee on the bright green grass. Beds in front of Strong Hall and Smith Hall, as well as around the Chi Omega fountain, are covered with dense blankets of red and yellow tulips. Dave Vander Valde, director of the University's nuclear molecular resonance laboratory, takes photographs that he posts on his personal Web site. He saves his favorite time of year is during spring, when the tulips are out. He also loves campus just before Commencement, when it's especially "spiffed up."
All these landscaping and beautification efforts are part of a "landscape master plan," which is part of Chancellor Robert Hemenway's vision for campus. Hemenway saw the need to create a plan to preserve Mount Oread's appearance and appeal to students and visitors, says Warren Corman, a university architect who helped draw up
the plan. A beautiful campus is often a huge selling point for prospective students, Corman says. "Over the last 40 or 50 years, the campus had gotten kind of worn out from the use of it, with thousands of people here every day." By fall 2000, shortly after Hemenway established the idea, the plan materialized into a $22 million initiative that would depend on monetary gifts from alumni and donors. In 2002, the family of former Chancellor Deane Malott donated a million dollars to build a landscaped entryway into the University at 18th Street and Iowa Street. Otherwise, donations have been slow to start coming in, Corman says, because KU Endowment has been focusing largely on its "KU First" campaign until only recently. "We've had a lot of offers to buy a few trees, but we haven't had any $5 million offers," he says.
The master plan has three parts, which will be carried out as more money is given: design, signage and maintenance, says Peg Livingood, a landscape architect who works in the University's design and construction management office. The design aspect covers campus development and determines which plants will grow best in certain areas. Livingood, who has expertise in site planning and land use, helps carry out the design aspect. Signage has to do with everything from street signs on campus that help direct students and visitors to larger projects such as the Malott gateway.
The maintenance aspect, however, is where Facilities Operations workers come in. They set the master plan into motion, working from 6:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. to maintain the appearance of campus. Mike Lang, Facilities Operations landscape manager, was
THE STUDENT VOICE SINCE 1904
hired four years ago as part of the master plan to be the campus horticulturist and oversee grounds maintenance at the University. He says the crews often work overtime, sometimes nine hours a day, just before Commencement, depending on the workload and how much they've gotten done in advance. In the winter, landscape workers the same hours, doing grounds maintenance, mulching and trimming. He says the work is more worth it when he thinks the community appreciates it. "The students are just awesome up here," he says. "Tulip beds, like in front of Strong, I can just imagine somebody running through or driving through, but the students and public have been fantastic. There has been very little vandalism."
Many students appreciate the campus' landscaping for the way it looks. And though the chancellor's master plan is all about keeping campus beautiful, the planners and crews who carry it out also have to know a few technical things about the area they're working with. They have to consider sun exposure, soil type, the grade of the land and the area's climate. Besides being visually appealing, the flowers have to be able to stand up to the many climactic challenges Kansas presents. Tulips, which are planted in red and yellow all over campus, thrive in Lawrence's climate. So do forsythia, the bushes that recently exploded into bright yellow flowers on campus.
Lang says that planting on campus is a constant cycle that moves with the seasons. Landscapers planted about 14,000 red and yellow tulip bulbs in December—bulbs need a few months before they are ready to bloom—and as soon as the tulips start dying in mid-spring, they'll plant the "summer annuals," which can be anything from red salvia to petunias to marigolds.
But before you start looking for summer flowers, try to take in every spring has to offer. The water lilies and irises will soon be blooming among the weeping willows by Potter Lake, and daffodils are already sprouting up everywhere. If you're graduating in May, breaths it in. Look around at your beautiful surroundings and take the memories with you wherever you wind up. If you're returning to campus, keep an eye out for changes in the future. Corman, the University architect, says the landscape master plan is barely under way, with plans drawn up for a campus-wide pedestrian walkway and the building of more gateways in years to come.

Bitch + Moan
By Jessi Crowder and Chris Tackett
Q
Waist-line wig outs
My girlfriend overreacts about lily things such as me talking to other girls. How can I let her know it's not a big deal and that I love her so it shouldn't matter?
Jessi: Your girlfriend most likely has had reason in previous relationships to overreact, which is why she continues to with you. Assuming you weren't the one to hurt her, she needs to stop blaming you, and you both need to cultivate a reciprocated trust. Let her know that she is the only girl for you and that you are not "what's his-name" and with time, your actions will prove that to her. Be sure to avoid behaviors such as taking calls into other rooms where she can't hear them or exiting IM windows when she enters the room. These seemingly menial things can be easily misunderstood as "cheating behavior" to an untrusting girl. Good luck!
**Chris:** I once had a girlfriend who overreacted to silly things such as me making out with other girls. "It's just kissing baby! I love you!" Quite the controller, she was. Does that answer your question?
Q
Why do guys in crowded bars always put their hand on a girl lower back whenever they're trying to walk around us? Don't they know that the last place a girl wants to be touched is where her extra flab is?
Jesai: According to my resources, they're coping a fail if they're single or merely pushing your butt out of the way so they can get to the nearest exit and outside to phone their girlfriend. It could also be a protective issue of sorts. Since you're female, men want to be more gentle when touching you (regardless of back flab) than when they shove the other guys around. It's not a big deal, but if it bothers you enough, go to the gym.
Chris: I got called out for doing this the other night and did not know that was where girls were now storing their extra flab. I had never realized why I was doing it, but as I tried to politely slide between two people to get the bar, I touched the back of the girl and she flipped. I think some people do it to test the girl's reaction. If the subtle touch sparks a smile or a conversation from the girl — bonus! But if not, it's still better than punching them in the face.
Q
When my boyfriend and I argue, he never lets me talk. He ends up feeling better once we're done, but I always feel like crap afterward. Any tips on getting my poles up?
Jessi: Does he like food? If he likes food, then give him something big (like an apple) to chew on while you talk. Or you could always tell him (though not when you're fighting) that you would appreciate him even more if he allowed you to voice your opinion on matters. Suggest "breathers" in which you talk while he listens. Breathers are vital in relationships and also throughout lengthy loving sessions.
[Oh, you guys say some of the darndest things.]
**Chris:** Power Point presentations are a nice way to add a little pizzazz. Or giant cards that have important facts on them. For example, if you say, "you've treated me like crap for 11 months," then hold up a card that reads "11 months." The emphasis can be toxic! Or you could make sure you get in arguments when you're driving in the car, that way if he won't let you talk you can just pull into a gas station and leave him there. Better yet, leave him out in the middle of nowhere! Hilarious!

How we met
Jenny McKee & Asa Collier
Jenny McKee, Basic Skill Instruction in Aerobics instructor and Principles of Nutrition and Health GTA, first met Asa Collier in a coffee shop she was working at. Collier was a friend of McKee's sister and her sister's boyfriend and came over the night before Halloween last year to help carve pumpkins. McKee says he keeps eating candy — one Snickers followed by another. "I invited him to a dinner because I was concerned with his eating habits," McKee says. McKee's concern paid off because Collier and McKee have been together ever since.

Meet the parents
By Erin Shipps, Jayplaywriter
The do's and don'ts of meeting your loved one's loved ones
will never forget the first time I met the parents of a former boyfriend. It was our first date and I begged him to ask his parents if we could take their nearly new Mustang on the date. They agreed as long as we stayed on paved roads. We agreed. We ended up going to talk at a spot overlooking the river. Unfortunately, we had to take a gravel road to get there. I remember it so clearly. It was like a tunnel, flanked on either side with high, grassy mounds and
trees.
He drove so slowly, worried about any rock that might shoot up and hit the car. All of a sudden, a deer came bounding over the hill from the right and smashed right into the front of the car. In order to avoid trouble we invented a story about how the deer had actually ran out when we were on a normal road, not a gravel one. When we returned the car, we retold the fictitious story to his parents. I don't think I made a great impression on them. That night I learned that lying is never a good thing to do when you meet someone's parents. The lie was always looming over us and I never felt comfortable
around them.
It's a safe bet that if you haven't already, you will someday be invited to meet your significant others' parents. Whether the experience will be good or bad is mostly up to the personalities and expectations of the parents. But doing a few things to improve the situation can stifle a fear of rejection.
When preparing to meet parents, the first thing you and your boyfriend or girlfriend should do is to talk about them, says Karen Sexton, a clinical social worker in Topeka. Get background information on what kind of people they are. If there are potential problems, be prepared
for criticism of your beliefs.
Sexton says that to deal with criticism, you must first try to understand the parents' point of view. Then, acknowledge either to yourself or to the parent that you understand where the parent is coming from, even if you don't agree. Finally, you must try to find some common ground. "They will always have different viewpoints, but you don't always have to talk about them," Sexton says. "You have to remember you do have one thing in common and that's your love for their son or daughter."
Next, it can be a good idea to bring a gift. Even in the movie Meet the Parents,

Greg Focker's gift of a rare flower bulb seemed like a good idea. He tried to impress his girlfriend's father with a specific gift. He couldn't help that his girlfriend's dad was actually a member of the CIA and not in the rare flower business. To avoid a similar situation, Sexton says to bring something impersonal, such as flowers, or offer to bring food for dinner.
The clothes you wear can also make a big impression on parents—good or bad. Sexton says she was reading Bill Clinton's biography and found that when Hillary met Bill's parents, she was wearing cutoffs, and it didn't impress Bill's very traditional mother. As a mother, Sexton says that as long as the clothes don't have holes in inappropriate places, she's fine.
10
While your attire can be easily controlled, the topic of conversation may not. When first trying to develop dialogue, Sexton suggests asking parents about their jobs, interests, etc. because they like to talk about themselves. She says when she met her children's significant others and they asked to see their baby photos, they won her heart instantly. Compi-
menting is also a good tactic, especially about the parent's cooking or about your significant other. "All parents want to think the best of their children," Sexton says. She says you should avoid saying anything negative about your partner.
Topics of discussion to avoid would be deep topics that convey emotions. Talking about politics or religion can get someone into hot water, Sexton says. She also says to be aware of cultural differences, even subtle ones such as the differences between someone from Georgia and someone from California. Any traditions or expectations **a**duld **b**b *discussed* with your partner beforehand, she says.
Sometimes there are just parents who think that no one is good enough for their children. If you run into this kind of parents, Sexton says it's a good idea to keep reminding yourself of your own good qualities. You should have it clear in your mind that it doesn't matter what others think of you. "Remember, your significant other thought enough of you to introduce you," she says. "It is an honor that you are worthy of."
Parents don't always have the upper hand, either. Sexton says her grandfather used to hide from all of his daughter's suitors. When her father caught her grandfather painting on the porch, her grandfather was forced to meet him, even though he was scared to death. "It's important to remember that most times parents are just as scared and worried as you are," Sexton says.
Recently I saw my old boyfriend on TLC's A Makeover Story. He was proposing to his girlfriend. Seven years have passed since our car fiasco, but seeing him brought back the vivid memories of the lie we once told. I think it still haunts me and I often wish I wouldn't have done it. "It's much better to be honest," Sexton says. "Lies have a way of coming up and biting you in the butt."

Ocooe Miller wears an army-green shirt with cut-off sleeves over a magenta T-shirt with her sleeves rolled up around her strong, tanned arms. A teal bandana holds in place her shiny, silver hair. Inside Milleer's country home, a cool, dark storeroom contains her collection of dried herbs and herbal tinctures. Miller grows a variety of plants and herbs on her property outside of Lawrence, which she uses to make herbal medicine.
Herbal medicine uses plants and herbs administered in different forms, to benefit the health and wellness of a person. Herbs can help treat issues such as aneurysia, anxiety, stress, colds, flu, sore throat, poor digestion, herpes, PMS, headaches.

insomnia and bladder infections. Herbal medicine works to maintain balance in the body and correct underlying problems that cause illness. Herbs can also alleviate a variety of symptoms.
Herbballer Doose Miller teaches for an echinacea tincture in her herbal medicine storeroom. Echinacea is known for its immune-boosting properties.
Civilizations have been using plants for healing since the Stone Age. Practically every culture, ancient and modern, has used plants for medicinal purposes. Over centuries, cultures have experimented with and learned the healing properties of plants including garlic, elderberry, lavender and echinacea. Native American, Egyptian, European, Chinese, Indian and indigenous cultures have used herbal remedies as far back as the beginning of written record. Today, Americans spend $4.2 billion a year on herbal supplements according to the National Nutritional Foods Association's Web site www.nnfa.org.
Herbs can be taken as medicine in a variety of forms; capsules, tinctures and teas are the most common. Capsules contain the herb in a dried form. Miller warns that capsules are not a very effective way to consume herbs. There is no way to know the age of the capsule contents, and once herbs dry out they begin to lose their potency. A highly effective way to consume an herb is by taking a tincture of the herb. A tincture is made by soaking the herb in alcohol, which preserves its potency and healing power. Herbs can also be consumed as a tea.
Self-education is an effective way to learn about herbal medicine. A variety of literature exists explaining the health benefits of plants and herbs. The internet has a dizzying amount of information on herbal medicine. Makk sure you understand the

intentions of the source of information before trusting it. Some groups have Web sites with information about herbal medicine in addition to trying to sell their products. Think about the interests of the company before relying on their information.
Large bookstores like Borders Books and Music, 700 New Hampshire St, have multiple shelves dedicated to books on alternative medicine. Herbal medicine falls under this category because it is considered an alternative to conventional medicine, medicine that is administered by a medical doctor. Herbalist Oocee Miller says that books written by herbal medicine practitioners with clinical experience provide the most accurate information on herbs. Miller suggests The Way of Herbs by American Herbalists Guild founder Michael Tierra as a leading resource of herbal medicine, noting that she has worn out several copies.
By using credible sources, you can learn about what herbs may help you. Treating yourself with herbs is not uncommon. However, you must use caution before you start taking an herbal medicine. Even though herbs are milder than prescription drugs, they are still a medicine and can affect the inner workings of the body.
Patricia Denning, a physician at Watkins Memorial Health Center, says that herbal remedies are not necessarily safe because they are natural. Denning says that herbs can react with other medications. Some herbs may also conflict with certain health conditions. You should seek advice from a medical professional to assure that an herbal medicine will not conflict with another medicine or health condition. Denning also says a pharmacist can advise on taking herbal medicine in conjunction with a prescription.
Lawrence has several professional sources for receiving herbal medicine treatment. Naturopaths and herbalists are both experts on herbs. However, a naturopath is a medical professional who is educated in treating health issues without the use of drugs or major surgery. A naturopath examines your health as a whole; your first visit includes discussing
your physical history, lifestyle and nutrition. The point of the initial $125 consultation—subsequent appointments are $65—is so the doctor can get to know patients well enough to understand how their health is affected by their life.
Farhang Koshh, N.D., is one of three naturopath doctors listed in Lawrence. Koshh received a degree in molecular biology from the University of Kansas, then a graduate degree in naturopathic medicine from Bastyr University in the Seattle area, which is currently one of four accredited schools for natural medicine in the United States. Kosh encourages getting advice from a medical professional before starting to take an herb.
However, Khosh also says that self-diagnosis is common. Khosh says the most important aspect of self-diagnosis is making sure you have a good knowledge of the herb: its effects, problems it could cause and the proper dosage. Khosh refers to the Community Mercantile, 901 Iowa St., as the "number one place to seek information regarding herbal medicine," adding that he recommends the store to all of his patients. Khosh says the staff in the wellness department at the Community Mercantile can answer questions regarding herbal medicine.
Another knowledgeable source on herbal medicine is an herbalist. As an herbalist, Ocooe Miller has studied the use of herbs for medicinal purposes for almost 30 years. Miller makes herbal medicine using herbs and plants that she grows, as well as herbs that she buys in bulk. With her extensive knowledge of herbal medicine, Miller has held numerous workshops at her property to teach others the methods of making herbal medicine. Miller also consults with individuals on a one-on-one basis. A session with an herbalist would include an in-depth discussion about your health as a whole, similar to a session with a naturopath. Although Miller does not hold professional certification, she has dedicated the latter part of her life to learning about herbal medicine.
Miller says using herbs can give you vibrant longevity and robust health—her youthful appearance proves this. As a teen, Miller first noticed plants being used for medicinal purposes while living in Greece in the '50s. Miller traveled with friends to small islands where she says housewives would cure their families' illnesses by using a plant pulled from their garden. About 30 years ago, Miller started learning the ways of herbal medicine. One of the first herbal treatments she discovered was during her time as a beekeeper. Miller found relief from painful bee stings by applying a plantain leaf to the injury.
Herbal medicine can treat common annoyances such as premenstrual syndrome or nausea, as well as recurring illnesses, such as bladder infections or herpes. Herbs can also help alleviate symptoms of everyday problems, such as stress, headaches or indigestion. Herbs are also known to prevent illness and to tone the organs, both ways to maintain positive health.
The herbs listed below are known to treat each of the health issues. These herbs are not guaranteed to fix any specific health problems. Multiple sources refer to the medicinal properties of each herb, making them "well-known" to help certain issues. Khosh advises learning everything about a specific herb before you begin taking it, especially making sure it will not conflict with other medicine. The references below are only to give you an idea of how different herbs can treat health issues.
Colds
Herbs can help prevent the common cold and flu, illnesses that students battle regularly. Echinacea is a mild herb that is commonly used to strengthen the immune system. After having reoccurring colds this winter and feeling the effects of my exhausted immune system, I started taking an echinacite tincture five days a week, for a couple of weeks. Echinacea strengthened my immune system and I haven't been sick since.
Echinacea is also used as a last-minute cold-fighter. After waking up feeling sick, Lawrence resident Bri Hodge took an echinacea tincture throughout the day and drank several cups of lemon balm tea. Hodge says she felt better the next day, attributing her immune boost to a tincture made with echinacea called Herbal Resistance. Echinacea is known to increase the number of white blood cells that fight bad bacteria in the body and boost the immune system.
Another herb known for its antibiotic properties is garlic. Raw garlic can fight infection and treat cardiovascular diseases like high cholesterol and low blood pressure. Garlic may be useful in preventing cold sores resulting from a herpes virus.
PMS
Vitex agnus-costus, or chaste berry, can be taken on a daily basis to help alleviate
symptoms of PMS
Taken consistently,
vitex can help regulate
your cycle, decrease
mood swings and
breast tenderness.
Motherwort can relieve
menstrual cramps and
discomfort. Seek
advice before taking if you use oral contraceptives.
Headaches
Matthews has also used gingko biloba to
Nausea or motion sickness
improve circulation when having a headache. Another herb that's known for its migraine-relieving properties is feverfew, although this herb is known to have complications with blood-thinning drugs. In The Way of Harbs Michael Terra suggests making this headache-relieving tea using equal parts skullcap, valerian, rosemary, chamomile and peppermint.
Ginger is commonly known to calm nausea and motion sickness. Ginger root can be found in drinks, teas, candy and cookies.
Indigestion
Bromelain, found naturally in pineapple, can help aid digestion. Cayenne pepper, peppermint and dandelion are three of the numerous herbs that can relieve poor digestion.
Stress and anxiety
Chamomile (Roman or German) and passionflower are known to aid in stress relief. A tea made with these calming herbs may help you chill out.
Bladder infections
Herbs can have many different medicinal properties. For example, chamomile is said to benefit multiple issues such as, gingivitis, asthma, skin problems, cuts and scrapes, insomnia and stress.
Biochemistry senior Laurel Matthews found success in herbal medicine for a problem that had been bothering her for almost six months. After having reoccurring bladder infections, Matthews researched and found that the herb nettles could help her problem. After taking nettles for three months, Matthews was not having the same frequency of infections as before.
Herbal medicine is only as effective as living a healthy lifestyle. "Herbs cannot make up for putting crap in your body; herbs will not overcome stupidity." Miller says. Miller emphasizes that students need to eat a balanced diet—which we should all be familiar with at this point—and recommends getting a crock pot-

to make easy, whole meals. She also emphasizes the importance of getting enough sleep and receiving ample amounts of sunlight. Miller avoids eating canned, "dead" food, which lacks necessary nutrients that occur in fresh, "live" food.
For herbal medicine to work properly one must first follow a healthy lifestyle. Eating right, getting sleep and exercising are three aspects of maintaining good health. Herbal medicine will work its best when used in conjunction with good health habits.
Patience is a virtue when it comes to herbal medicine. Because herbs are generally mild, they may not provide immediate results. Herbs can be beneficial because they can change the way the body works, like strengthening your health. Some herbs should be taken for months to achieve positive effects.
Lawrence resident Brett Ramey says when it comes to medicine, our culture is used to "quick fixes." Ramey, who works in Oceo's garden weekly, emphasizes that people have to take care of their bodies before herbs can work their best.
The dynamic practice of herbal medicine is always strengthening with research and studies. Using herbs for medicinal purposes can be a rewarding and empowering, putting you in control of your health.

MAKE YOUR OWN Tincture!
A tincture is the most effective form because alcohol maintains the potency and medicinal properties of the herb.
To make a tincture, combine four ounces of cut herb with one pint in alcohol is a glass jar —vodka is commonly used—and shake daily for about two weeks.
Then, pour the mixture through a fine cloth to strain the liquid from the herbs. Store the liquid in a cool, dark place to properly preserve your tincture.
An echinacea tincture might be a good one to start. Once you've made your tincture, you can take two tablespoons a day if you're starting to feel sick, or if your immune system needs a boost. Echinacea can have success with fighting different infections. Be sure to not take echinacea every day for more than a month or it will become ineffective to your body. A good regime could be to take it for five days a week and stop for two days.
*Allergies -- Maller recommends doing a skin test with any herb prior to consumption by rubbing a little on your wrist or putting a little drop under your tongue. You may have an allergy if your throat becomes irritated, or if you get a headache, stomachache or rash.

A view from 18th street, looking east toward Vine St. Though only a few jazz hot spots remain—namely the Peach Tree Restaurant, the Red Vine, the Blue Room and the Gem Theatre—during the 1920s,'30s and '40s this street was the gateway to an
Kansas City, Mo., who introduces himself as the "first original master bartender" of The Blue Room, adding that he's been at the The Blue Room since "day one." Day one, he explains, came six years ago when it was resurrected from the decrepit remains of the once-famous 1390s and 40s jazz hot spot, the El Capitan Club. Anderson tells me that the building of The Blue Room came through the efforts of former Kansas City mayor and jazz enthusiast Emanuel Cleaver to breathe life back into this once-hopping district in downtown Kansas City. Anderson says the various clubs that once surrounded where The Blue Room now sits had a worldwide notoriety in the '20s and '30s. Famed jazz musicians, such as Charlie Parker, Fats Waller and Count Basie, came from all over to play in this area.
A quick history lesson and one gin and tonic down, I leave The Blue Room and head up the street to the Red Vine Cajon Restaurant and Jazz House, 1700 E 18th St. The Red Vine's illuminated street sign bears the slogan, "a bland of Bourbon Street with a touch of Vine." I walk in and immediately see the connection: red and orange tapestries adorning the walls are interspersed with ornate candelabras and large impressionistic paintings of jazz trumpeters, piano players and drummers, making me feel as though I've been transported to a back alley jazz hole on Bourbon Street. Sebrina McCrainage, owner of the club and KU alumnae, tells me that the Red Vine.
which is only a year old, is a "destination" restaurant because of its location in the historical $18^{\mathrm{th}}$ and Vine area. "People enjoy the history here, the culture and being on Vine," McCrainey says.
After an hour and a half spent absorbing the ornate scenery at the Red Vine, he back head down to The Blue Room to catch the end of the Luqman Hamza Quateret's set, Hamza, a piano player with an incredibly smooth, yet powerful voice that falls somewhere in between Nat King Cole and Frank Sinatra, finishes his set with an upbeat swing number. After the show, I strike up a quick conversation with Hamza while the rest of the band packs up their gear. A native of the Kansas City area, Hamza has been active on the KC jazz scene since the 1930s when he was a teenager. "This place has
been a living room for me." he savs

Americans had made the drink with tonic water, limee and Brazilian chichona bark but the mixture was awful. The natives substituted the bitter tasting bark with their national alcohol, cachaque, and the drink became a legend. Because the Brazilian alcohol is hard to find, most people substitute either wine or brandy in its place.
As Brazilian as soccer and bikini waxes, the caipirinha will transport its drinkers into a sunny state of mind. Henry Ford had an automobile production plant in Brazil during the 1920s and '30s. While in the South American country, Ford banned his workers from drinking an earlier form of the drink, but the Brazilians mixed up a new recipe and the caipirinha (pronounced kuy-per-REEN-yah) was born.

At 12:30, the crowd is all but completely cleared out, save a few finishing their drinks, the band still packing up their gear and a man intently fiddling with the club's soundboard. I walk over to him and strike up what is to be my last conversation of the night.
Nearing 1 a.m., The Blue Room closes and I make my way out the door. I reflect back on the night, the people, the sights and the sounds I've encountered, and I can't help but feel as though I'm taking a piece of the jazz culture and history with me.
The man is Kansas City, Mo., native Karle Robinson, 47, a regular attendee at The Blue Room who works the soundboard on weekend nights. Robinson is a jazz enthusiast and has a week-day blues and jazz show called "Afternoon Jazz with KC" on the Kansas City community-run radio station 90.1 KKFI. Robinson says that the Kansas City city district has been neglected at the hands of politicians who "don't care about music culture."
"They haven't finished what they started," he says, referring to the revitalization process that began six years ago. "It's made headway by building shops, restaurants and other attractions downtown, but it needs to continue along those lines."

PARKING LOT IS FULL
Sneaky secrets from people who know how to save you time and energy
Illustration by Austin Gilmore
How to find a parking spot
It is 9:22 a.m. and I have an exam in eight minutes. I could make it if I find a parking spot, but nearly every student knows that parking spots after 9 a.m. are hard to come by. I can forget about parking at the Student Recreation Fitness Center, and the Burge Union is almost out of the question. Tracy Smith, Tulsa, Oklahoma, second-year law student, knows how to find a spot.
She likes to say she invented an efficient way to find a parking spot. She calls it the "hover method," which allows her to find a parking spot in the yellow lot beside the Burge Union. To employ Smith's method, first back into a metered parking spot. Then, with the engine running, "hover" in your spot while you watch for people walking to their cars with their keys in hand. Smith says as soon as you have detected which row they are heading toward, make a dash for that row and turn your blinker on. Smith says her method usually ends up beating the people who are driving aimlessly up and down each row looking for a spot.
How to pass Western Civ without reading
Three of every four KU undergraduate students have to take Western Civilization I and II. I know that everyone loves to read Homer, Chaucer and Plato, but sometimes life just doesn't allow busy students the time. TaMisha Banks, Newton sophomore, is one such busy student. She turned in a two-and-a-half page response paper for Western Civilization II over a book she doesn't even own. Banks says she used to read SparkNotes (www.SparkNotes.com). sort of an online version of Cliff Notes, but now she doesn't even do that. Banks says although she doesn't read the books, she still goes to every class so she has some clue about
what is going on.
Until recently, I had no idea how to find a book in the library. Fortunately, a friend showed me the way and it really isn't near as overwhelming as it seems. The KU Libraries Web site, www.lib.ku.edu, lets you search for books and find where they are located, their call number and if they
It is not realistic to think that all students read all of their Western Civ books, says Aaron Ketchell, Humanities and Western Civilization lecturer. He says he hopes that students read all the books, but he realizes it is much more logical for students to go to class and discern what points the teacher emphasizes and focus their reading on those topics. He says that because so much material is covered, it all can't be tested, but going to class and hearing the material discussed with the teacher's approach should help students decipher what's important.
How to find a book in the library
are checked out or available. Retrieve From Shelf is another service that the KU Libraries offer. The service 'began last year and has become popular with students, says Emerson Crabill, night and weekend supervisor of the circulation desk at Watson Library. Retrieve From Shelf allows students to request their books online and receive an e-mail notification when the book has been retrieved and is ready for them.
Whether you are finding a parking spot or finding a book, chances are someone else knows the easiest way to get things done. Maybe now you won't circle the parking lot for hours looking for a spot before finally deciding to give up and skip class. And now you know how to check out your Western Cib books. Question is, will you read them?

How to use

Log onto the KU Libraries Web site and click on "Library Catalog." Next, search for your book by keyword, author, title or call number and click "Search."

At the bottom of the page the status of the book is listed; and if it is available you can request it. If it is checked out you can recall it. Next, click "Recalls & Requests" and enter the last eight digits of the 16-digit number on your KUID card and your last name and click "Login." Choose if you are recalling or requesting the book and click "OK." You will receive an e-mail telling you when your book is ready to be picked up.

You're typing away on homework when it happens.
Nothing. Your computer just stops. It's frozen. It's happened to everyone. Before you give up, says Lapp Epp, information specialist at KU Information Technology Computer Repair, try these steps:
Close the program that's not responding. On a PC hold down the Control + Alt + Delete keys. On a MAC press the Apple + Option + Escape keys.
If a list of tasks pops up, look for the program that says "not responding" under the status list. Click on the program and press "end task". The program will close and your computer should work normally.
If nothing happens when you use the key combinations,
there is a full system freeze. Try turning off your computer.
If it doesn't shut down gracefully, hold down the power button for about seven seconds. If that doesn't work either, unplug the computer, wait a while, plug it back in and reboot.
You may lose unsaved changes in your work, so as a precaution, save often. Epp says these steps work nine times out of 10, but if your computer still acts strange when you turn it back on, take it in. It may be something more serious.

Whether you want to spruce up your wardrobe or make a statement, designing your own T-shirt can be a lot of fun. However, getting from the idea to the reality can be a hard thing to figure out. Instead of using iron-on letters (which will just fall off in the wash, anyway), try using T-shirt transfer paper. Available for less than $20 from companies such as Avery and Hewlett-Packard, the paper can be used in ink jet printers. Avery also includes a free download for its design software online at www.avery.com to help you create your design.

The Amityville Horror
★★★
R, 89 minutes, South Wind 12
Movies Excellent: National Lampoon's Animal House Good: Old School Okay: Revenge of the Nerds Bad: PCU No stars: National Lampoon's Dorm Daze
Producer Michael Bay and director Andrew Douglas masterminded the frightening remake of The Amityville Horror. The film, originally released in 1979, is a terrifying yet intelligent story of inexplicable supernatural events. The Amityville Horror has the ideal combination of heart-stopping moments and skin-crawling special effects that shakes an audience to its core. This horror film takes viewers to the edge of sanity through alarming images, startling music and well-crafted lighting.
The Lutz's are able to survive the house's wicked attempts of murder and destruction. However, the family idly observes George's behavior turn from fun-loving to cruel. His irrational motivations to murder his loved ones are discovered after 28 days of living in Amityville.
George Lutz (Ryan Reynolds) is a gregarious, young husband and stepfather, struggling to make ends meet for his new wife and family. George and his wife, Kathy (Melissa George) impulsively buy an extraordinary house in Amityville, with hopes of a fresh start and a bright future. Unaware of the murderous history their new house holds, the naive couple uproots their family, and moves them into a place of dreadful evil and terrorizing demons.
--a missing. Civil War battleship in West Africa.
Amireville
The Amityville Horror is a well developed film, particularly for its genre. Reynolds displays his versatility, and proves to be a remarkable villain. Who would have thought Van Wilder could be so creepy? The Amityville Horror avoids blood curdling scream scenes that frequently make their way to horror films. The creators did a fine job authenticating the time period. The Amityville Horror is perfect for scary movie fans.

PG-13, 127 minutes, South Wind 12
Sahara is a second-rate version of a Jerry Bruckheimer creation. Although entertaining with its slapstick humor and perpetual, action-packed enemy encounters, Sahara lacks feasibility and interest. It is appealing to Indiana Jones fans and perhaps even a few Die Hard enthusiasts. However, Sahara fails to meet the high standards of the great classic action films of history.
Dirk Pitt (Matthew McConaughey) is a thrill-seeking explorer with the pesky habit of finding himself in the middle of dangerous and life-threatening situations. His best friend and crime, Al (Steve Zahn) comfortably fills the cliché but favored role of the immature sidekick that aims to please through comedic relief. Together the two comrades run on planes, trains, tanks and even camels to search for
Eva Rojas (Penelope Cruz) is a strong-willed doctor desperately seeking the source of a mysterious plague wiping out the people of Africa. Coincidentally, she becomes acquainted with Dirk and Al, where they manage to dodge every single speeding bullet and bomb aimed directly at them. It really is miraculous.
Sahara is an effortless film to watch because it takes very little thought or comprehension. The story line fits the familiar mold of the good guy saving the world, killing the bad guys and, of course, sharing a dreamy kiss with a beautiful girl underneath a blazing sun and breaking waves. Unfortunately, Sahara ran about thirty minutes too long, and overestimated the simplicity of its formula. With that said, I may be purchasing another ticket to the movie. Matthew McConaughey is undeniably gorgeous with a tan that would make Wayne Newton turn green with jealousy.

The Books Lost and Safe
Help is on the way! Well, not really, but two dudes from Massachusetts, Nick Zammuto and Paul de Jong, have found something to sing about anyway on their recently released third LP. Lost and Safe.
Both have been wandering around up in the Mass. area for a few years now with their tape recorders gathering an array of bizarre bric-a-brac material to create their copy-paste quaisi-noise ensembles. Combining banjos, cellos, found recordings, live vocals and guitar clippings, The

the books
LOST AND
SAFE
Books continues its ground-breaking processes that have set them apart from other sample-based bands, arranging a variety of simultaneously mismatched textures and beats in a well-controlled, cohesive package of luscious wavelengths.
Despite its seemingly meticulous pace, *Lost and Safe* does well to maintain a sound that many people have come to understand as uniquely "Bookish:" a brand of music that's both abnormal and smooth. Though this newest release is sure to please an already well-established fan base, it certainly doesn't take any enormous risks to bring in new ones. Zammuto and de Jong seem to have reached a necessary stalemate of meditation on what they have already done rather than reaching into the realm of what is still to come.

Hot Hot Heat Elevator
Remember "Bandages," that fun and memorable little song that took weeks and months and years to get out of your head? Well now that you finally got it out, here's another 15 reasons to start beating your head in with a tac hammer. Yes, Hot Hot Heat is back with their latest album, *Elevator*, an infectious little collection of new wave pop-rock.
Elevator features a delightful mixture of mildly distorted and energetically-played guitars, peppy drum beats, spunky pianos and organs and snappy bass lines that blend into an overall sound that is both busy and amusing. The band is probably most recognizable, however, by Steve Bays' fun and playful, yet frantic and distracted, stylish looks. He manages to generate a tension/release clause with just about every measure of the song and still build the sonic and contextual tension through the entire song until it ends up in a giant
HOTNOTHEATELEVATOR
musical knot.
That sounds confusing,
but the songs are all light-hearted and still palatable.
You will almost definitely find yourselves singing them in the shower, at the supermarket, humming them in class, and you'll probably even wake
up to them having been playing in your dreams (did I mention it's really catchy?).
Elevator is a fun and enjoyable album; great timing for a spring/summer release.
I recommend this album for fans of Franz Ferdinand, Something Corporate, Weezer and Built to Spill.

SNMNNMN
As Best As We Can!
North Carolina has a habit of manufacturing products of debatable merit; tobacco, Roy Williams and now Chapel Hill's SNMMMM.
As tobacco and Roy Williams before them, SNNMNM is prone to dishonesty and false advertising. Its Web site's abstract claims of musical kinship with the Beatles, Radiohead and Brian Wilson are easily the most unfounded and synthetic I've heard all week. Culling most of their influence from early 90s SoCal slackers Wezer and Pavement, SNNMNM should have recognized that honesty is always the best policy (especially when one's forefathers are wholeheartedly righteous).
The first half of *As Best As We Can!*
unfolds like a high school battle-of-the-bands set: Vocalist Seamus Kenny's intended whine is an octave lower than most of the emo dweebs he presumably

tion, which begs the question, "Why don't you just play the bass or do something interesting?"
The band catches fire to some degree on the album's latter half with a trifecta of energetic pop rockets. "My Defense" and "Indian Nation" have a throwback surf rock bounce while the breakneck ska/poika track "If" pushes the band's RPM full titl.
This triplet however, doesn't atone for the album's most offensive moments. Inexplicably, "Another Song Ray Hates" and the album's closer "Why Ray Hates Track 5" are the exact same song. Whover and wherever Ray is, I'm apt to agree with his view of SNMMMMM: As best as they can just isn't that good.

THE STUDENT VOICE SINCE 1904.
Nintendo Preview:
Nintendo recently made a stop in Overland Park and brought some of their big name titles to be released over the next several months. Jayplay game reviewers Dan Hoyt, Nick Finnegan and Chris Moore drug themselves away from class one sunny afternoon to play video games that haven't yet been released. On the way back to Lawrence, they pondered what Nintendo had in store for the gaming industry.
Pac-Pix: Scheduled release date: April 26
Drawing your own Pac-Man on the DS and then trying to control it by putting walls in its way to guide it gave us some moments of frustration.
**Chris:** I thought it was kind of hard sometimes because it wouldn't recognize the Pac-Man I drew. You (Dan) said it was fine and easy, but you had difficulties as well.
**Nick:** The drawings looked like they were done by a mentality challenged 3 year old.
**Dan:** But mine still ran. The game at least accepted my interpretation of a Pac-Man.
**Chris:** It barely accepted mine. I got under the wire.
Nick: I think it was kind of interesting to see Nintendo use a classic character to show just what you can do with the stylus and what the touch screen can do. I mean it was really creative and they were going for a real creative style.
Goist: Scheduled release date: June 27
A new first-person adventure game where you play a ghost and possess people to utilize their specialties.
**Chris:** Geist was really innovative. Just in the way where you go in and out of bodies.
**Dan:** I thought it was really interesting especially the multiplayer, but I think with no LAN or online capabilities its going to really limit the potential and that game has a lot of potential. With me I got bored and just started killing random people rather than let them be possessed. I just killed them because it gave me something to do until I found somebody who could fight back.
Nick: It added some cool little abilities like a power-up that lets you hijack a body that has been possessed already.
Dan: And it was really interesting when I was about to die so I left one body and went into another body and turned around and watched Chris possess the same body I just left. And then with one shot I killed you, and I was glad I got out of there because that was a sinking ship, you know, but if you wanted my sinking ship it gave me a free kill.
Nick: The story looked kind of cool; the single player looked good.
Dan: And Nintendo has some really good stories in their games so I would expect that from them. And especially if they're
not focused on doing online games then I would think the story should be that much better.
Nick: It should be. Especially with the concept of people you possess can only do things they are capable of. Like with possessing animals. That offers up a whole new thing you can do.
**Chris:** Like when you possess a woman in a towel she's not going to let you take her out in front of these guards because that isn't something she would normally do.
Nick: it's really interesting about how your controller would fight you when your trying to do something that the character wouldn't normally do.
Hintondogs; No scheduler release data
Nintendogs is a Nintendo game that simulates owning a real dog.
Chris: I'm going to call that to new age of the tamogachi pet. Like when you get money to go and buy a pet and then you raise a pet. I wonder if it said can also die.
Nick: We didn't talk about that.
**Dan:** is the Humane Society going to show up at my door because I killed my virtual dog? Is Nintendo going to send me an email that says, "we know what your doing." In the future is there going to be mods where you raise your dog to fight in a ring?

Chris: Well what did you expect them to get? System of a Down.
Dan: Playing that made me want to play Geist some more.
Nick: Well the drums are Nintendo's answer to the DDR crowd.
Chris: I'm not into the whole moving to the beat kind of thing.
Dan: Slipknot.
**Chris:** I think Nintendo would get a lot of calls if they did that.
Chris: They also talked about how the new one has songs that are aimed at the junior high to college crowd. And in the first one there was much different songs. And in this one their was like Hillary Duff and Usher. Dan Brooks is the singer.
Nick: Nintendo has sunk to a new low.
Dan: Yeah, they're relying on Hillary Duff and Usher to sell their games.
Dan: Now we will have two whole games where you can use those drums and a third in about a year.

Jade Empire Xbox
Video games
Our friends at BioWare were kind enough to create a game where the opportunity to beat ghost ass is around every corner.
The problem is, the dragon was a powerful spirit charged with watching over the gate to the underworld. Bada-bing, bada-boom — you've got restless crazy ghosts walking all over the place, screwing stuff up.
In Jade Empire, you are the sole survivor of a clan devoted to the preservation of a Water Dragon. After a terrible drought, the Emperor takes the dragon, thinking he can use its power to restore his empire.
So you, the last Spirit Monk, have to use
your ghost-beating prowess to calm (punch) the unruly souls of the dead, restore the water dragon, and save the world.
The whole game is set in a fictitious East Asian land known as the Jade Empire. It has an obvious Chinese influence, yet the main theme is structured in
Japanese Shinto beliefs.
As gamers have come to expect, the graphics are breathtaking and the story is compelling, but this is a pretty big departure from BioWare's other titles. BioWare's blockbusters Never
winter Nights and Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic are both based off of existing D20 systems and well-established worlds. Jade Empire is the first time they've had to lose their licenses and go ground-up. What they've developed isn't quite an RPG yet isn't quite action.
2018.COM
You learn and develop fighting styles and forms of magic that you employ real-time as you take on ghosts, demons and whatever else happens to come along.
The trick is finding out what combat
styles work for you and using them to beat, blast and brawl your way to victory. This title also employs a philosophic system of morality. The good, peaceful stuff is the Way of the Open Palm. The mean, angry stuff is the Way of the Closed Fist. Which path you choose determines the outcome of certain situations and, in the end, the fate of the empire itself.
Gather up your chi and check this one out.

Rise of the Kasai PS2
Cutting a gory swath through a ton of enemies has never looked so great. Too bad that's about the only thing that saves this game from being just another hack-and-slash sequel.
Rise of the Kasaitis off where its predecessor, Mark of Kri, left off. The plot bolts down to reliving past moments to prevent Rau, the main character, from being killed. To do this you get to play as four different characters, each with their own unique weapons, in more than 10 different levels.
Here's the problem; there have only been a few marginal changes from the first game. Everything works the exact same way. Even the characters, even with their varying array of weaponry, play pretty much the same. Sure, Rau's sister Tati is quick and nible, but she doesn't put her spells to use very well. For the most part you'll be button mashing and not even worrying about combs; either way is very effective.
The game's graphical presentation, however, is what sets it apart from other games in the genre. The animation looks to me like a few of the Dianne guys got fed up with their child-oriented artistry and decided to draw some very adult-oriented
A
material. Enemies are continually chopped in half, with arms and legs severed and maimed in about every way possible.
Rise of the Kasai simply follows the conventions established in the first game while not doing much to make it something new, but it's fun for the first couple of hours.

Dynasty Warriors 5 PS2
Grab your armor and weapon. It's time once again to step out on the battlefield. These legendary Chinese warriors never quit, so neither will I. Take part in some of the greatest battles in Chinese history and prepare for a free-for-all of action. Dynasty Warriors 5 comes in with some of the same old gameplay, but is always worth playing.
Once again, you choose a warrior during the time of the Three Kingdoms of China and play their part in history. In this installment, you play a character's specific part in the battles. As the character, you still have the ability to be a one man army. I once killed more than 700 soldiers in one mission alone. There is some strategy to the game still. While you can jump
head first into enemy camps, it's sometimes better to back off or you'll find yourself surrounded by enemy officers.
One thing that's regrettably missing from this Dynasty Warriors is the ability to create your own officer and body-guards like in *Dynasty Warriors 4*. I miss the ability to choose what my officer looks like and what weapon he can wield on the battlefield.
Another thing that always draws me to these games is the music. The music of the missions and the character select screen always get me in a fighting mood.
Another Dynasty Warriors is now on the market. If you're a hardcore fan then you'll feel right at home playing this game. If you are a newcomer, I suggest you pick it up and give it a try. No need bothering with previous ones; it's pretty much the same game. It also good for getting out aggression.

Miss Clean
The peculiar habits of a clean queen
By Mandy Hendrix, Jayplay writer
Illustration by Scott Drummond
Illustration by Scott Drummond
tently I was flipping through an astrology book that claimed to reveal the true, repulsive qualities of every zodiac sign. As I read about Virgin — my sign — I was less than shocked to hear about our fanatic ways of being neat and organized. I'm not sure that I can owe all of my absurdities to the time of year I was born, but I need some excuse for bordering on obsessive-compulsive.
I first started to notice my eccentric habits about the time I went into middle school. It began with silverware. At dinner I wouldn't be able to eat all the food on my plate unless I had a separate utensil for each food item. I wouldn't allow the fork I used to eat my corn to touch the watermelon. My place setting always had at least two forks and usually two knives. My obsession with clean silverware soon opened Pandora's Box. I began to notice how my food was arranged on my plate and became squeamish when my dinner roll touched spaghetti sauce.
Juicy foods such as watermelon or green beans are the most difficult foods to contain. I've found that if I hold the plate at a slight angle, the liquid settles nicely in one area. But then my other food slides right into it. Solving this problem requires me to have numerous plates at the dinner table. When I eat, it looks as though I'm
indulging with a five course dinner and all
the courses are set out in front of me.
Except each plate only has one serving of
food on it. I try to use fewer plates when I
eat now, but I refuse to trade in all of my
silverware.
Throughout middle school and high school, my habits seemed almost normal. I don't have any siblings, so there was nobody around to tease me about my odd eating habits. The occasional remark from my parents "Why do you bring five plates to the dinner table?" and the confused looks on my friend's faces at restaurants (after requesting two additional clean forks) reminded me that I'm not like everybody else.
During my freshman year of college, when most people were homesick for friends or parents, I missed the cleanliness of my home. At school, I couldn't afford to clean my bed sheets every week and the pristine, white carpet that I bought for the room became dirty after a couple of days. But my most memorable—and shocking—experience came from observing others. I was absolutely horrified to see people walking down the hall in their towels. Not because I'm a prude, but because it was the same towel they used yesterday.
Living in the dorms, away from the security of myhome, Ifound thatmyquirkiness magnified. Suddenly I became
obsessed with the subpar cleanliness of others while they ridiculed my over-the actions. One night I actually stayed home while my friends went out so I could clean their room. I couldn't take anymore dirty clothes thrown about the tiny space or spoiled food left for days. It was disgusting, and I was the only one who cared enough to clean it.
Now I share an apartment with two other girls. Having my own place lets me indulge in my passion for cleanliness, I once read in an article that the kitchen sink is the driest place in the house. I immediately drove across the street to Dillons and bought a gallon of bleach. Since then, nearly every week I fill the sink with scalding water and a cup of bleach. I won't let my kitchen sink be dirty.
Toilers are another hang-up. I am terrified of sitting on dirty toilet seats, I hover over public toilets and will only sit if I lay toilet paper down. The only toilers that I can safely use are the one in my bathroom at my parent's home and the one in my personal bathroom at my apartment. I keep a hidden stash of Clorox wipes under
the sink to wipe off the seat whenever someone else uses my toilet. After that I don't have any more toilet troubles—until the next person uses it. Even people that I'm close to, such as my roommates and my boyfriend, aren't spared from my toilet cleaning ritual. If you sit on my toilet, I'm gonna wipe it off.
Some may think that I have obsessive-compulsive disorder, but I don't worry about it. I know my thoughts border on excessive, but I haven't reached the point where they control every moment. I am able to let loose sometimes and be a normal, messy college student. Being obsessive-compulsive is like fixated on a certain thought or idea and not being able to let it go. That's how I feel, but I like order and good hygiene. I'm sure that some of my quirks will stay with me forever, but I won't let them take over my life. I'll seek professional help before I'm spotted in a biohazard suit.

There are meet officials and volunteers, announcers, a maintenance and grounds crew, student volunteers, a video crew, alumni and Kansas Athletics Department staff, just to name a few.
In the center of all the madness is meet director Tim Weaver, who works yearround to plan the event. Doesn't sound too hard, right? Well, it won't be in a couple of weeks.
But lately, Weaver has been working 18-hour days. That would be 90 hours a week, if he worked five days a week. But he's been working seven.
"I do go home at least to eat breakfast," he said.
Here's a snapshot of Weaver's office on the second floor of Allen Fieldhouse at 10 a.m. on a recent morning
D. J. Hilding, one of the five Kansas Relays interns and a member of the track team, sits at a computer. Phil Montgomery, a retired math professor and Relays volunteer, proofreads an entry list at a desk. Debbie Luman, the track and field office assistant, answers the desk phone while Weaver talks on his cell phone.
Meet posters are strewn across the floor waiting to be hung in Topeka, Wichita and Kansas City.
Resting on chairs and on the floor in some tangled order are admission buttons, officials' wristbands, megaphones, four helium tanks for 2,000 blue and gold balloon-
all-access passes, 84 12-packs of soda, 15 softballs for a children's clinic, coloring sheets for schools and day cares, meet schedules and Weaver's running shoes.
One corner of the room is dominated by an army of boxes that threatens to overrun the room.
"I don't even want to talk about that corner." Weaver said.
During the 45 minutes away from his cell phone and computer, Weaver missed nine calls and received 38 new e-mails.
Earlier that morning he had talked to a coach from Wichita State wanting to get an athlete into an invitational event; a T-shirt manufacturer who said that 2,000 Relays hats and visors that had been shipped from China were stuck in a customs office in Kansas City; a woman from the Bahamas trying to get a team into the meet at the last minute; the family of an official who had had emergency knee surgery and needed to be replaced; and an ice vendor.
"I talk to 100 people a day," he said. "It's my staff and assistants that keep that number lower than it could be."
Whew.
Meanwhile, across campus, a team of facilities workers prepared Memorial Stadium for the meet.
George Barnes, grounds supervisor, said the hardest part was prepping the area northeast of the stadium for the throwing events.
"It's a parking lot during football season," he said. "So it's quite a challenge."
Two men who have been putting in hour of overtime at the stadium during the last couple weeks are Dennis Kennedy, carpenter, and Roger Bartels, general maintenance.
Kennedy said the crew couldn't do much of its work until after last Saturday's preseason football scrimmage in the stadium. This week the crew of about 10 people has been out tearing down the goalposts, setting up the pole vault and sand pits, installing a rubber railing around the inside of the track and putting flags on top of the scoreboard.
"Basically, whatever they need and whatever they ask for, we'll do it," Kennedy said.
Bartels led a six-man crew last week who blew the leaves and debris out of the stands and cleaned the bathrooms, locker rooms, concourses and the turf on the field.
Bartels will be in charge of an eight-man team who will keep the stadium clean during the meet.
"It's a full-time chore keeping up with the trash and with the volume of people at the stadium during the Relays," he said.
While the grounds and maintenance crew were busy getting the stadium ready this week, the 54 members of the Student Relays Committee were also at work, doing various odd jobs to assist Weaver and spread word of the meet through campus.
Kelly Wilson, one of the three people who head the committee, was at Memorial Stadium from 3 to 9 p.m. on Sunday. She said the night before several people were there until 3 a.m. And she only expected things to get crazier as the date of the meet approached.
She said the committee had been blanketing campus and Lawrence with posters, signs and schedules, sending letters to alumni and doing too many other miscellaneous tasks to account for all of them.
"There's always something to do." Wilson, Plainville senior, said, "whether it's something little or something big."
While many people were
doing all the small chores, Tony Daniels, athletic events coordinator, was looking at the big picture.
He had worked to put together the event surrounding the track meet, meaning he had organized activities such as a Hy-Vee-sponsored shopping cart race for charity and a basketball tournament put on by the Vietnamese Student Association.
Another person looking at the big picture was Cliff Wiley, a former Kansas track and field sprint star, Olympian and world record holder, who now runs a law firm and lives in Kansas City. Kan.
Rachel Seymour/KANSAN
Wiley is one of the 37 members of the Greater Relays Committee, which ranges from people who work in the Kansas track and field office to former athletes and longtime fans.
Wiley said the committee met at least once a month for more than half of the year to make sure the meet was in the right direction.
As the final days leading up to the meet approach, and everyone works furiously to wrap up the preparation, those who do most of their work during the three days of the meet get ready.
This includes about 400 officials and volunteers. Weaver said, who come from throughout the state and even the nation to work the meet.
One of the officials who has been at it the longest is Del Shankel, former University chancellor and professor, among ever things.
Another person who will be busy during the Relays is Mike Lickert, who coordinates the
Shankel has officiated the meet nearly every year since about 1966, he said, usually as a timer or judge at the finish line. He said he wouldn't find out what he'd be doing this year until shortly before the meet.
Tim Weaver, Kansas Relays director, spends hours at his computer e-mailing and making preparations for the Kansas Relays each year. Several students helped Weaver prepare for the relay by sorting materials and equipment at Memorial Stadium March 17.
video board.
video board. It takes a video crew of 16 to 18 people, he said, to run four or five cameras and coordinate the clips, live video and instant replays that are shown on the screen.
"It's like putting on a live TV show for 10 hours," Lickert said.
"In all, that's probably about 250 individual slates," he said.
He said he had worked for weeks to type and organize the slides that would go on the screen at the start of each event. Each slide includes two slates: one that shows the name of the event, and another that shows the Kansas Relays record, American record and world record.
Perhaps the busiest people during the meet are the four in the announcer's booth.
Don Steffens, who announces the high school
track events, has announced the meet for about 30 years.
Steffens said he prepared for the meet by going through hundreds of pages of statistics from state and national meets.
"There's a lot to do to get ready for it, obviously," he said. "A lot of it is getting up on the sport."
Steffens tries to say something about each athlete as they step up to the starting line, he said, meaning he had to research thousands of athletes.
After the last event is finished on Saturday, as long as the weather holds out and all goes well, the people who put on the Kansas Relays will likely breathe a collective sigh of relief, grateful for the meet's conclusion.
For Weaver, it means it's time to get to work on next year's meet, the planning of which has already begun.

Panel discusses evolution
Experts say new standards could hurt the economy
BY TY BEAVER
beaver@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
As the hearings on the state's science standards for K-12 students approach, a panel of University of Kansas students and faculty, along with other experts and scientists said changes devaluing evolution in the standards could harm the state's economy.
Several members of the
panel, which met yesterday, said this was a response to what they said was the Kansas Board of Education's agenda to make intelligent design part of the science curriculum. They said that the bioscience industry would not want to come to a state that did not value science and that people would not move to a state with a educational system that was perceived as backward.
Sitting at the front of the sanctuary of Plymouth Congregational Church, 925 Vermont St., the panelists discussed their unhappiness with the necessity of the meeting.
"I can't express pleasure to be here because it feels like we're
I."
I can't express pleasure to be here because it feels like we're in a time machine going back to the 1700s."

in a time machine going back to the 1700s," Leonard Kristalka, director of the KU Natural History Museum, said.
Director, KU Natural History Museum
Each of the seven members of the panel spoke briefly on an area that the board's final decision could affect. Effects on the state's economy and education were two subiects discussed the most.
Because the state legislature passed the Kansas Bioscience Initiative in 2004, Charles Decdee, executive director of the Higuchi Bioscience Center, said it was critical that the quality of science education stay high.
In his opening remarks, John Burch, Plymouth church member, said that the panel would attempt to answer the questions the board should be asking before they made their decision in May.
The initiative involves spending $500 million dollars to attract companies to the state and make it a leader in bioscience industry and research, Decedue said. Twenty-thousand jobs could result from the initiative.
"The question is whether K 12 students will qualify for those 20,000 bioscience jobs," he said.
Students and faculty commented on how downplaying evolution in the classroom would affect education.
Andrew Stangl said his school didn't teach evolution as a result of the board's science standards changes in 2001.
He learned about evolution
because he took the time outside of school to learn it, said the Andover sophomore and president of the KU chapter of the Society of Open-Minded Atheists and Agnostics.
Rachel Robson, Lawrence medical student, will graduate this August. She said she would like to stay in Kansas to work but was concerned that jobs in the bioscience industry could be scarce.
"There are native Kansans that want to stay but may have nowhere to [work]," she said.

Beer decision on hold
Final proposal to be drawn up May 7 for beer sales in Union
BY DANIEL BERK
dberk@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITE
Nearly three months after a proposal was made, there is still no decision on whether beer sales will be allowed in the Kansas Union.
The next step in the process will happen May 7., at the Memorial Corporation board meeting. The board is composed of 24 students, faculty and staff.
In a February 2005 meeting, the board unanimously approved a plan to look into bringing responsible alcohol sales back to the Union. Responsible alcohol sales include giving customers bracelets once they enter the Jaybowl region, not letting customers purchase more than one drink at a time and scanning
people's identification cards
Marlesa Roney, vice provost for student success and a member of the board, said once a proposal is given to the Hemenway and Shulenburger, the most important thing that will have to be done is to talk to members of the community and gain feedback.
At the next meeting, the board will finalize a formal proposal that will be given to the top two administrators at the University, Chancellor Robert Hemenway and Provost David Shulenburger. Hemenway and Shulenburger will make the final decision.
Roney said Hemenway and Shulenburger had not reached a decision on the idea because
"There are some people who think this is a bad idea," Roney said. "Once we have the proposal it will be important to talk to the community as a whole and see what they think."

KSU union beer sales profitable
BY KELLIE ROBINETT krobinett@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Officials at the University of Kansas need only look west on I-70 to see that union liquor sales won't bring negative effects to campus.
Kansas State has sold 3.2 percent beer in its student union since 1995, and no major problems have occurred during the past decade, said K-State recreation manager Teri Eddy.
The K-State union, which holds 16 bowling lanes, several pool tables and a Subway restaurant, sells beer behind the front desk. Three beers are
always on tap — Budweiser,
Bud Light and Coors Light —
and several other alcoholic beverages, such as Mike's Hard Lemonade, are kept in a refrigerator in the back.
"I had my doubts, but its virtually been no problem whatsoever" she said.
All beer is poured into plastic cups before given to customers for safety reasons, and pitchers are never used. On-tap beers can be purchased for $2 in 16 ounce cups, or $1.50 in 12 ounce cups. Beer sales stop at 1 in the morning.
Eddy said the union tried its hardest to cut down on underage drinking. On busy nights, wrist bands were given to of-age customers to control underage drinking. Patrons could purchase only one beer at a time, as

Bands to battle for $600 purse
Event organizers say they want to bring in record-setting crowd
BY ADAM LAND
aland@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Last year's Battle of the Bands at McCollum Hall brought in about 150 people and organizers hope this year attendance will reach 500.
The event, which takes place tomorrow from 2 to 7 p.m., is sponsored by Coca-Cola and Chipotle, and attendees will be offered free burritos and Coke. Chad Theisen, associate complex director for McCollum Hall, said.
"We really are trying to go all out," Theisen said. "We hope this year is bigger than any in the past."
Organizers of this year's event want to have a record number of students attend, said Theisen.
Six bands, ranging from hard rock to pop, will be on the ticket. Bands perform for 30 minutes each, and there will be 15 minutes between the bands for setup.
bands for secreta are "we really excited to play this event," said Pat Downes, front man for the Pat Downes Band and Overland Park junior. "We came in second last year and we hope to do better this year."
Pat Downes and the band will play a musical style influenced by Dave Matthews and other acoustic artists.
Every band chosen had to have a least one member in University housing, Theisen said. First timers, Farewell to Ashlyn, are ready for the experience.

refounded the fraternity in the fall of 2002.
Tau Kappa Epsilon fraternity will move into the Phil Kappa Theta fraternity house in August, Tau Kappa Epsilon members said.
"In the past when we rushed guys, the house was at capacity," he said. "Now that we have space available for guys, especially incoming freshman looking for a place to live, you can show them where they'll sleep and study, so it definitely gives us an advantage over previous years."
Alex Plassmeyer, Tau Kappa Epsilon president, cited several reasons for the move to 1111 W. 11th St., including a better location and the desire to increase its membership. The fraternity has about 50 active members, Plassmeyer said.
The new house will generate more living space for the fraternity. Tau Kappa Epsilon had trouble recruiting members in previous years because it did not have adequate room in the Ohio Street house, said DJ. Soper, Atchison junior.
Fourteen members live in the house at 1232 Ohio Street this semester. Next school year, the chapter would like to have about 50 members live in its house. Plassmeyer said.
Plassmeyer said he would use the new house as a recruiting tool.
A lack of space made it difficult to conduct chapter meetings at the house. Meetings had to be held in the Kansas Union.
The Phi Kappa Theta fraternity house will soon be home to members of a different fraternity at the end of the summer. Members of Tau Kappa Epsilon fraternity plan to move into the house in August after vacating their previous house at 1232 Ohio St.
The new house will have a house mom and cook, whom were missing from the Ohio St. house, said Tvler

In his first year at the University of Kansas, a professor asked Jihad Alammar if his name meant "killing me," referring to the professor.
Being his first year in Lawrence from Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, Alammar didn't know how, to react or respond.
"It caught me off guard," he said. "I was not prepared."

The word jihad does not mean holy war, which is a common misunderstanding. Rather, jihad is an Arabic word that means "struggle" or "working hard."
But now three years later, the Saudi Arabian senior would not be caught speechless with a comment like that.

will host several events for its Islam Awareness Week, April 25-29.
This is the first year for the program, but Alammar, MSA vice president, said he hoped to make the awareness week annual.
"We really think it's really important for everyone to know what Islam is about," Alammar said.
Since Sept. 11, 2001, he said, the Islamic culture has been eyed with suspicion by many Americans.
Although University students and Lawrence residents are generally open-minded about different cultures, Alammar said he hoped lectures and other teachings next week would help correct those misconceptions people still had about Muslims.
Events for the week include an Islamic art exhibition, a lecture about Islam from the Judeo-Christian perspective and a firsthand perspective of a Muslim's day.

The event will pair non-Muslims with MSA members. The pair will attend events, which start as early as 5 a.m. with a non-prayer service. The day's other events include a free Middle Eastern lunch, a Friday prayer service at the Islamic Center of Lawrence, 1917 Naismith Dr., Alammar said.
Maggie Van Buskirk, Leawood sophomore, said though she was unaware of the awareness week, she thought people should learn about the Muslim culture.
"I'm Catholic and I think it's important for people understand where I'm coming from," she said. "So I think it's important to understand where Muslims come from."
Van Buskirk said Friday's daylong event would be good because she thought it would be more interesting for people to experience Muslim traditions than to just hear about them in a lecture.

Training accident leaves two dead, five injured
FORT RILEY — Fort Riley officials released the names of the soldiers who were killed in a training accident yesterday. One of the two Fort Riley soldiers killed in a training accident had served for a year in Iraq.
Pfc. Philip M, Christensen, 21, of Salt Lake City, who enlisted in February 2003, served in Iraq from September 2003 until he returned to Fort Riley a year later.
Spc. Wesley S. Gordon, 19, of Houghton, N.Y., enlisted in October 2004 and had been at Fort Riley since March.
The soldiers were from Company A
of the 1st Engineer Battalion of the 1st Brigade, 1st Infantry Division. Five other soldiers were injured in the accident Tuesday afternoon, said post spokeswoman Sam Robinson.
The injuries weren't considered life-threatening. About 100 soldiers were involved in the training on the northeast section of the post.
More than 4,300 Fort Riley soldiers are in Iraq and 48 have died in Iraq, including 10 from the 1st Engineer Battalion.
The accident occurred as the soldiers were training in an M113 personnel carrier on the squad assault course. All seven soldiers injured or killed were inside. Robinson said the accident was under investigation.

Professor earns three awards in multicultural education
A University of Kansas professor was recently honored for his work in multicultural education.
Cornel Pewwardy, associate professor of education, received three awards this month. One was from the American Educational Research Association, which named him the 2005 Scholars of Color Distinguished Scholar, a national honor, according to a news release from the University of Kansas.
Student Senate presented Peewardy with the 2005 Big 12 Outstanding American Indian Faculty Member of the Year and the 2005 Anthony Daniels Award for Leadership and Achievement in Multicultural Education on April 16.
"We're very pleased and happy with him and his accomplishments in his profession," said Fred Rodriguez, interim dean in the School of Education.
Pewewardy's research addresses educational problems found in American Indian classrooms. He has heritage in both the Comanche and Kiowa nations.

'Hedwig' to be performed live

Rock 'n' roll musical about transgendered singer ends Pride Week
For the conclusion of Gay Pride Week, a transgender woman with a botched sex-change operation will belt rock 'n' roll from the bottom of her "angry inch."
The off-Broadway musical, "Hedwig and the Angry Inch," will be performed tonight and tomorrow at the Granada, 1020 Massachusetts St.
"Hedwig" tells the story of a man who got a sex change to marry a soldier.
The operation goes awry, and
leaves Hedwig with an inch-long penis.
Hedwig then forms his own band and tries to chase down his ex-flame.
To complicate matters, rock star and ex-lover Tommy Gnosis leaves him and takes all of his songs.
This musical brings two groups together: rockers and musical theatre lovers, said Barbara Eubanks, coproducer.
"It has poignant theatre moments interspersed with great rock music," Eubanks said.
There is some trouble bringing the two together, said Steven Eubanks, director of the musical.
"It's interesting to attract theatre audience to a hard rock show and hard rock lovers to come to a theatre show," he said. "It's a throwback to David Bowie and the glam rock era but the audience has to invest a lot of time into the monologues."
Thanks to word of mouth,
"Hedwig" is gaining a cult following
much like another gender-bending
show, "Rocky Horror Picture Show."
Eubanks said.
This event is co-sponsored by Oueers and Allies.
"A lot of that interest came from the group," Eubank said. "They have been getting a lot of buzz for
us."
The musical, which made its debut in 1998, was adapted into a film in 2001 and won the Sundance Film Festival Audience Award.
"This show is more personalized for Lawrence," she said. "There's adlibbing and Hedwig goes into the audience."
There are more songs in the stage version of Hedwig than in the movie, Eubank said.
audiennes are 8 and 11:30 tonight and 11:30 tomorrow night. Tickets cost $15.

Governor signs bill to increase public schools spending
TOPEKA — Gov. Kathleen Sebelius signed budget legislation yesterday despite what she said was a "highly disturbing" education funding provision threatening to create future financial problems.
She continued criticizing a plan pushed through the Legislature by Republican leaders that would increase annual spending on public schools by $127 million.
Republican leaders wanted to increase aid to schools without increasing taxes to meet a Kansas Supreme Court mandate. Sebelius and her fellow Democrats contend their plan, relying on existing revenues and tapping the state's cash reserves, is fiscally irresponsible.
Otherwise, much of the budget bill followed Sebelius' spending recommendations, so much that the governor didn't veto any line items.
"There is one major and highly disturbing revision," Sebelius said in a statement, referring to the education funding plan.
She added: "I commend the Legislature for working with me to restore fiscal order to state government. Unfortunately, we may well be at the high water mark of this restoration."
Including the education plan, the bill Sebelius signed would increase spending in fiscal 2006 by $433 million, or about 4 percent.
Work on the fiscal 2006 budget isn't complete. Legislators still must consider one last spending bill after they reconvene Wednesday.
The House Appropriations Committee already has finished its version of the bill, a measure that would add about $105 million to the fiscal 2006 budget.

Census predicts fewer residents
BY CARL MANNING THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
TOPEKA — A quarter century from now, Kansas will have a slightly higher number of people, and they will be living longer.
According to Census Bureau projections for Kansas in 2030, the state will retain its four congressional districts, but not everyone agrees with that assessment. Kansas would be better off than Iowa, Nebraska or Missouri, each of which is expected to be down a district in 2030.
The 2000 census showed Kansas had 2,688,418 people and projections released yesterday predict 2,940,084 in 2030, a 9.4 percent increase. The nation's 2030 population is projected at 363.6 million, a 29.2 percent jump.
Kansas is 32nd in census rankings, but if the projections bear out Arkansas will occupy that spot in 2030, and Kansas will drop to 35th. That doesn't surprise
Steven Maynard-Moody, director of the Policy Research Institute at the University of Kansas.
"The population growth in Kansas is slowing more quickly than it is nationally," he said. "The proportion of the nation's population living in Kansas is declining."
He said contrary to the census projections, the state's rate of growth compared with the rest of the nation could mean Kansas would lose a congressional district.
But, he said, projections weren't absolute, and census data generally have some surprises, such as the state's Hispanic population more than doubling from 1990 to 2000.
The census projections also predict a jump in the state's elderly population.
In 2000, Kansas had 556,229 residents age 65 and older, or 13.3 percent of the state's population. The 2030 projection calls for 593,091 people in that age group, or 20.2 percent of the state's population.

"My name is on the liquor license and I don't want to get in trouble." Eddy said. "I'd be stupid not to think there are good ID's out there, but we check everyone."
People who come to the student union visibly drunk are also turned away without being served. Eddv said.
On average, union alcohol sales bring in anywhere between $4,000 and $5,500 a month, but the beer has helped bowling leagues more than anything. Eddy said.
"Our bowling leagues are much more popular now," Eddy said. "Bowling is one of those sports that you can have a beer or two while playing. The good thing is nobody has much more than that, because then it hurts their game."
Kansas State students said
they enjoyed having a few drinks while playing pool or bowling, but few students go to the union for the sole purpose of getting drunk.
"I think it's made the union a lot better place to hang out," Kansas State junior Jared Kenney said. "You don't see many drunks there, though. Most people go to Aggieville if they really want to party."
Eddy attributed this student attitude to strict university rules, which notify a student's parents when they get in trouble.
She also said that throughout the years, liquor sales were no longer a controversial topic and that the life of Mike Fine. University of Kansas recreation coordinator, would be much easier if the University brought back union liquor sales.
"There's really no reason not to have it," Eddy said. "We don't promote it like bars do, and business has grown every night."

Roney said there was no timetable with the proposal, and could not speculate when beer sales would be allowed, if it was approved.
If the proposal is approved, the Union will sell 3.2 percent beer. That's the same

type of beer that is sold at gas stations, grocery stores and the Crossing. Most beers sold in bars fall between 4 and 5 percent in alcohol content.
Some students on campus think bringing beer to the Union is not a good idea. Amanda Tate, St. Louis senior, and president of Campus Crusade for Christ, thinks enough of college life already revolves around beer.
"I don't think the Jaybowl will turn into a party scene or environment, but I like it the way it is now," Tate said. "It's just something different. So many activities include beer — why does this have to?"
Tate said that her opinion did not reflect Campus Crusade, and that the beer issue was something that had not been discussed within the organization.
Tate said she was in the minority, and said she thought most students wanted beer at the Union.
Tim O'Grady, Clarinda, Iowa, senior, is one of the students Tate is talking about.
"If there are good prices, I would walk over there and grab a beer if I lived on campus." O'Grady said. "I wouldn't walk there straight from class or anything and get drunk. I would go because it's a good location."
Steve Munch, student body president and Bellevue, Neb., junior, introduced the original bill for Student Senate proposing the idea of beer sales on January 26. Munch attended the board meeting in February, but because his term ends next week, Nick Sterner, student body president-elect, will join him at the meeting and will work with the administrators on the issue.

Gaza Strip withdrawal delayed by Israelis
MIDDLE EAST
By MARK LAVIE THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Mofaz met with top Israeli security officials, including army and police commanders, to discuss a proposal to delay the pullout by three weeks, until Aug. 15. The Defense Ministry said Mofaz agreed to the delay, sending the matter to a ministerial committee headed by Sharon.
The Haaretz daily reported late yesterday that Sharon will approve the delay, quoting an unnamed official in his office.
The recommendation by Shaul Mofaz, who is expected to win government approval, came as Israel and the Palestinians held their first talks on coordinating the pullout. Prime Minister Ariel Sharon insisted that despite the delay and strident settler opposition, the evacuation would be carried out.
JERUSALEM Israel's defense minister yesterday recommended briefly delaying Israel's planned withdrawal from the Gaza Strip, the strongest indication yet that the summer pullout will be pushed back.
Sharon has indicated he would support the delay but
The issue is ostensibly religious. The July 25 start date of the forced evacuation of settlers falls within a three-week mourning period leading up to Tisha B'Av on Aug. 14, when Jews mark the destruction of the biblical temples. Mohaz decided to take into account the feelings of settlers, most of whom are Orthodox Jews.
Officials denied reports that another reason for the delay was to give the government more time to prepare. Lack of settler cooperation has made it difficult for the government to decide where the settlers will move, officials say.
wanted to get approval from his security chiefs.
"The disengagement will be carried out," Sharon told Israel Army Radio. "Whoever thinks this will open the way to delays or not implementing (the evacuation) or other pressures is simply wrong."
Israeli commanders in Gaza have noted a recent increase in Palestinian attacks, and said the two-month truce might be in jeopardy. Sharon has said repeatedly that the evacuation must not be carried out under fire.
Yesterday, an Israeli jeep patrolling the Gaza-Israel border was hit by a rocket-propelled grenade fired from Gaza, seriously wounding a soldier, the military said. And in central Gaza, a riot erupted after Israeli soldiers closed a road, witnesses said. One Palestinian was wounded by Israeli gunfire, they said.

Pay heed when entering Phog, Roy's ghost still resides here

BOB JOHNSON bjohnson@kansan.com
We miss Roy Williams.
Admit it everybody. If you have been a Jayhawk fan for more than two years you know exactly what I am talking about. It is not that we have turned on coach Bill Self, which we should not do, or that we even lament his presence, which we do not.
The matter of fact is that the Williams hangover has not quite worn off yet at the University of Kansas.
I don't need to tell you how much Williams was loved by the Kansas community. The adoration for him was about more than basketball; it was about a person who represented an institution as a whole. Coach Williams was not only the face of an athletic team, he was the national spokesman for the Jayhawk nation. He was loyal and humble
and didn't give a you-know-
what about North Carolina —
neither did we until two years
ago.
Who believed that coach Williams would stay at Kansas for the rest of his career? Who knew in their heart that he would be standing at center court when the next national championship banner was unfurled from the rafters at Allen Fieldhouse? I wish you could see me right now, because my hand is raised high. If coach Williams wanted a legacy, this was the institution to build it. He had the opportunity to have monuments made of himself in
following the Tar Heels during the last two seasons I would call you a liar. Kansas fans tried not to give a youknow-what about Williams after he left, but breakups are just not that easy. Our divorce with him did not end on good terms, no matter how hard you try to gloss it over. That
rocky separation made it all the more excruciating to watch him win the big one with another program after failing to do so time and time again while he was here. We tried to be happy for Williams but our hearts were not in it, especially after his former Jayhawk recruits went down in the first round to a no-namer. That should have been us, many Jayhawk loyalists thought. That should have been Roy and Wayne cutting down the net in St. Louis together. Besides, could you
Kansas fans tried not to give a you-know-what about Williams after he left, but breakups are just not that easy. Our divorce with him did not end on good terms, no matter how hard you try to gloss over it.
Kansas, and while coach Williams might have said that he wouldn't want that, my guess is that he would not have fought it either. I had faith that our beloved coach could resist the charms of his alma mater and of the man who had once resisted his own, Dean Smith. In the end it was that former Jayhawk turned Tar Heel who prevailed and lured Williams back home.
If you were to tell me that you have not been
see Simien taking off his jersey and flaunting it around the arena after the victory? Come on, where's the class? I could almost hear The Verve's "Bittersweet Symphony" playing in the background.
We have one question to ask ourselves now: Is it right to try desperately to love someone when you still miss another? Sometimes in order to keep going that is all we can do. Maybe now that the main staple of Williams-generation students will soon graduate it will help us all to move on and give up the ghost. As long as Wayne, Keith, Aaron and Mike were on the floor, it was
inevitable to catch ourselves glancing at the bench from time to time to see what Williams thought about a bad call or muffed play. Maybe the departure of those great players will help us to forgive and forget the departure of a great coach and embrace a new era of Kansas basketball more focused on the Self.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Kansan's Pride Week coverage dissapointing; needs controversy to show homophobic society
I am writing a complaint about The University Daily Kansan's coverage of Pride Week as of far.
There seems to be sufficient coverage of Black Love this week. There also was a story about the Asian Festival this week. But where's the story on Pride Week?
We had an event on Monday called the "Kiss In." There was a photographer there, and it looked like she got some pretty good shots. But what I don't understand is the photo the paper published. It was of two women hugging. It wasn't of two guys kissing or even two guys hugging.
The event was a "Kiss In" not a "Hug In," which was what the photo showed.
Two women hugging in today's society is not controversial. It doesn't put to light how heterocentric and homophobic our society is about two people of the same-sex sharing a kiss.
Why does the Kansan shy away from the LGBT community when it comes to issues like these?
David Ta Wichita senior education studies
Pride Week 2005.
The LGBT community has been rocking this week with its Kiss-In, drag queens and rock opera. Not to be missed is this weekend's musical performance of a transgendered operation gone horribly awry.
Attendance policies.
Go to class? Honestly,
with the weather as
beautiful as it's been,
how can we be expect-
ed to sit in a sterile

need to take a day off

Culture shock can lead to personal transformation. Last summer, I went to Chennai, in the South of India, and I had trouble adapting to a new culture, so I started questioning everything in my life.

I was supposed to be in a theater program, but that never happened because the
never happened because the theater group had a financial crisis. But what seemed like a disaster turned out to be an experience that changed my outlook on the world. Going through both positive and negative experiences helped me understand a reality I hardly knew existed.
My first three days in India were a nightmare. I was shocked by the poverty of most of the people. I did not stay in a five-star hotel, like many tourists, but lived in a shantytown. Also I was afraid I could become ill if I drank the water or ate
I learned that I should not leave the house unless somebody from the theater group accompanied me because I could be attacked for being white and for being a foreigner. I was shocked to know these were regular procedures for foreigners. Facing all these negative aspects of India and believing my life was in danger,
food prepared in the village. I did not have treated water in my house, and it was surrounded by a trash site, so I was fearful of contracting malaria.
I said I wanted to leave India immediately.
There were some aspects of the culture that bothered me, such as oppression of women. One night I was having dinner at a restaurant and
My friends made me question the life I had led in the West. They showed me how empty my life was, because I focused on materialistic values.
Then the director of the theater group said I should give India a chance, and he introduced me to the actors whom made me feel welcome. They would bring me food and take me around the city. Somebody would always accompany me to the house to make sure I was safe. I felt they cared about me even though I was a stranger.

much women have achieved in the West, which is what they called anybody who is from North, Central or South America and Europe.
Indian culture also deals with relationships differently. Romantic relationships are only allowed after marriage. I did not feel comfortable talking about dating, because this was taboo. But some young people break the social rules and have secret relationships without telling their parents. Even then, the relationships are based in friendship and respect, rather than physical contact.
My friends made me question the life I had led in the West. They showed me how empty my life was, because I focused on materialistic values. The actors taught me happiness is not necessarily associated with material achievements.

Even though the people had poor living conditions, they didn't have any material ambitions. They were happy as they were. I don't see the world in the same way since I went to India, and I don't think I ever will. It was a very contradictory experience. I
Sometimes it takes culture shock to realize that materialism cannot truly make you happy. Being in a foreign place and letting yourself become vulnerable to your surroundings can help you understand other realities and be open to enriching life experiences. Challenge yourself. Step outside, and find out what it really is that makes you happy.

Sheldon Battle, Jamestown, N.Y., Junior, swings the hammer around on his third throw for the round yesterday afternoon outside Memorial Stadium. Battle made it into the Kansas Relays finals and took second place. Battle said that his best throw was about 196 feet but that he had wanted to throw more than 200 feet. "It didn't work out how I planned." Battle said.
'Afterburners'on high
Unseeded runners finish season strong at Kansas Relays
BY PATRICK SHEHAN

KANSAN SPORTSWRIETER
She held her arms above her head and waited for the other runners to finish, patting their backs as they crossed the finish line. When all was said and done, Jayhawk runner Paige Higgins walked out of Memorial Stadium for the last time as a winner. She won the women's unseeded 3,000-meter run in the time of 10 minutes. 5.35 seconds.
For the first mile, she stayed on her pace in second place. After the mile, however, she hit the afterburn-
ers and strode into first.
"With a mile to go, that's when I started to surge a little bit," Higgins said. "A mile is usually my time to go because I don't have much of a kick.
Higgins, a senior and a cartoonist for the Kansan, won in considerable fashion and ended her home career on a high note.
"I really wanted to come out here and win," she said. "I owe it to the school to run well here. They've given me so many opportunities and so much respect here."
Erik Sloan won the men's 1,500-meter race, finishing in 4:00.00.
After nearly two laps of running in the middle of the pack, the Jayhawk
junior lunged into first place and held on for the rest of the race.
"I feel like I executed my race plan perfectly," he said. "I just wanted to get out in front and make sure I was in position at 700. Then at 500 to go, take it once and for all." I knew the victory was mine. I wasn't going to let that go in Memorial Stadium."
Sloan had a season-best last night after an injury-riddled career, but his goals go beyond this weekend. He said that his main priority was the steeplechase.
"This has been the first season I've been healthy," Sloan said. "It's only going to help me in the steeple."
Other lavhawk notables include
Laura Major's eight-place finish in the women's unsecured 800 meter run. Major, a sophomore, finished in 2:21.13.
On the men's side of the unseeded 800-meter run, Keith Schmerer finished seventh. The sophomore set a personal best at Memorial Stadium of 1:55.45.
"It was great, I just got out and went out hard with the pack, and this might be the last race of the season," Schmerer said. "It's a great way to end with a personal record. It's a lot better competition than last year."

McMillan's agent, Craig Domann, said McMillan had met with about a third of the teams in the league either flying to their locations or meeting them for
workouts in Anschutz Pavilion
McMillan impressed scouts at the NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis when he ran the second-fastest 40-yard dash time among defensive defends at 4.60.
"I think it was important because it gave teams a reason to go back and watch him play," Domann said of McMillan's performance at the combine. "If you go back and watch him play against Oklahoma, he dominated their left tackle."
Domann said that McMillan worked hard to prepare himself for the combine and it paid off. Domann said a lot of players understood that they needed to prepare, but not everyone did.
"He's just one of those guys who will be popping champagne on Saturday night or you are going to be taking aspirin," Domann said. "Some guys don't even need to watch the draft on Saturday and some guys aren't going to be around on Sunday. David is one of those guys who has an excellent chance to be drafted on Saturday."
"He was one of the most athletic defensive players at the combine regardless of position," Domann said.
While scouts have expressed a concern with McMillan's size — he was listed at 6-foot-3, 240 pounds, when he played for the Jayhawks in 2004 — McMillan said he weighed nearly 265 pounds now.
Domann said he thought McMillan was borderline as to which day he would be drafted.
"He has been working on getting stronger and more healthy and more athletic, all that type of stuff, but not necessarily putting on weight, not trying to be big." Domann said.

'Almost too familiar for Kansas
If you were to sum up the Kansas baseball team's season so far in one game, you probably couldn't pick a better one than Wednesday night's 11-9 home loss to Wichita State.
It was a story of "almost," as in Kansas was just a few opportunities away from ending the game with a W, instead of another loss. It's a story the team has become too familiar within the course of this season.
The Jayhawks led early, then trailed, then came back on junior outfielder Gus Milner's monster shot into the center field trees, then fell behind again — and stayed there. They intermingled awesome plays — like a diving catch by junior center fielder Matt Baty — with silly errors. They had 11 hits, but seemed to use nearly as many pitchers.
After all, Kansas was almost the victor of its first two conference series against Nebraska and Texas A&M — winning the first game of each before dropping the last two. It was almost a winner against Baylor on Sunday night, before a magnificent performance by junior pitcher Kodiak Quick was rendered moot in the ninth inning, and it's almost ready to turn the corner and be competitive in the Big 12 Conference.
Almost, but not quite.
Don't get me wrong. The Jayhawks have seen their share of success this year, starting the season 21-8, at one point winning eight in a row and opening conference play with a victory for the first time since 2002. As of Monday, Kansas was second in the Big 12 in hits, third in home runs and boasted Baty as the conference's leader in stolen bases. Coach Ritch Price has improved the team gradually since arriving to the team two seasons ago. This year, though Kansas hasn't been as strong on the bats, the team's ERA has improved by nearly a full point. With 19 regular-season games remaining, the Jayhawks need to win only seven to match last year's victory total of 31.
But Kansas wants to do more than win 31 games. It wants to finish in the Big 12's top eight and in doing so, secure a berth in the conference tournament. It wants to play in the tournament for an opportunity to advance to the NCAAs and ultimately the College World Series. But right now, the Jayhawks are sitting in the Big 12's cellar, sporting a last-place 3-9 conference mark, almost ready to climb out, but not quite.
And exactly how close is almost?
It's getting 25 out of 27 outs for the victory Sunday against Baylor, then losing the game on the last two. It's giving up only four earned runs to Oklahoma a couple weeks ago and still losing 7-5. It's getting on the board first in all three games against Texas A&M, but winning only

Player's dad says son didn't commit
Don't pencil Dwight Lewis into the Jayhawks' 2006 men's basketball lineup just yet.
The high school senior, whose father said verbally committed to Kansas on Tuesday, still plans to visit several other schools.
The 6-foot-5-inch, 190-pound shooting guard/small forward from Metairie, La., was thought to have committed without taking a campus visit. Yesterday, Lewis' father told rivals.com that he misinterpreted his son's intentions. He said that Kansas was still high on his son's list.
He will make an official visit to Lawrence April 29-30. Visits to Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, USC and LSU are a possibility, Dwight Sr. said.
Lewis is ranked 84th in the class of 2006.

ESPN, athletics department extend deal for seven years
ESPN Regional Television will continue to provide its services to the Kansas Athletics Department for at least another seven years, according to a $40.2-million extension reached yesterday.
The new agreement will take effect July 1.
The new agreement will take effect July 1.
The current contract, which paid the University $1.8 million per year, has been in place since July 1999. The new contract will pay the University $5.74 million per year, said Jim Marchionny, associate athletics director for external affairs.
"This is one of the largest deals in the country," Marchiony said.
It shows that ESPN appreciates the value of KU athletics, he said.
The agreement grants ESPN Regional multimedia rights and corporate-partner rights, which include the responsibility of obtaining corporate sponsors.
ESPN Regional's services include producing and distributing television and radio productions of KU athletics events and other programs, such as coach's shows and preseason specials. It also provides in-stadium marketing, which includes selling signs and holding contests at events.
Marchiony said the department would use part of the contract's revenue to purchase and install a video board in Allen Fieldhouse before the start of the next basketball season, but the board was not a stipulation of the extension.
Rain cuts double-header
SOFTBALL. 3-2

OMAHA, Neb. — The softball team lost its opportunity to tie up its double-header against Creighton last night when rain caused officials to call the game.
The Jayhawks lost a close first game to No. 19 Creighton, 3-2, before a downpour put the second game on hold. Officials canceled the second game of the doubleheader because of heavy rainfall in Omaha, Neb. Kansas led Creighton 2-1 in the second game after three innings, but officials sighted lightning and conditions became worse before they eventually called the game.
"It was a tough loss but Creighton is a good team," coach Tracy Bunge said.
She said Creighton ran off of hits, something her team failed to do.
junior pitcher and designated hitter Serena Settlemier threw the entire game for the Jayhawks but ended up taking the loss. She allowed three runs off five hits and struck out six.
"Serena was solid today, but it was not her best performance of the season." Bunge said.
She retired the side on strikeouts in the sixth inning.
Junior outfielder Heather Stanley kept the team in the game with a two-run home run in the top of the fifth inning, pulling the Jayhawks within one run of the Jays. It was her fourth home run of the season. Junior first baseman Nicole Washburn and junior outfielder Ashley Frazer led the team with two hits each.
The Jayhawks will be at home at Arrocha Ballpark to take on the Oklahoma Sooners in a two-game series tomorrow and Sunday.
The loss put Kansas at 20-19 on the season.
Bunge said Oklahoma had a potent offense, and solid pitching performances would be key for Kansas to do well.
"We need to bounce back this weekend," she said. "We've got to take advantage of scoring opportunities and play our game."

Top pick not a draft necessity
BY DAVE GOLDBERG THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Brett Favre was the 33rd pick in the 1991 NFL draft and his good pal Michael Strahan went 40th two years later. Ray Lewis was 26th overall in 1997 and Ed Reed 24th three years ago.
Which proves you don't always need a high pick to corral stars, a development likely to be demonstrated again tomorrow when commissioner Paul Tagliabue opens this year's auction. This is a draft where the top 10 is a crap shoot and a lot of good players will be available later — the four above-mentioned players include a three-time MVP and three defensive players of the year.
"There is not that much difference between when we pick and the late part of the first round," said New York Giants general manager Ernie Accorsi, who gave up this year's first-round pick in the 2004 deal that got the Giants Eli Manning. Accorsi now doesn't get a choice until No. 43.
lete. But I don't think that in any way is disparaging toward the draft," Accorsi said. "I think it really speaks to how deep the draft is, at least the first half of the draft."
That's because scouts can only project what they think a player can do over the course of his career.
In fact, scouting may have become more difficult.
The NFL scouting combine can lead to overanalysis, especially since big-time agents and agencies now run schools on how to perform better in workouts.
Not how to play better, how to work out better.
"I think it is the same quality of ath-
Smart executives go with playing over working out and testing. "You can't beat performing well at a high level," Detroit Lions president Matt Millen said.
"The combine is nice, the measures are great, but a lot of people run around in T-shirts and shorts that can't play the game," San Diego general manager A.I. Smith said.
workout figures — a guy who runs a 4.3 second 40-yard-dash opens eyes even when he hasn't had much of a college career.
A lot of good players should come out of the second and early third rounds. Near the top is riskier, because most scouts don't think Smith or Rodgers is as good a prospect as last year's top three QBS: Manning, Philip Rivers and Ben Roethlisberger.
Especially this year.
Still, it's hard not to be tempted by
TENNIS
So teams with high picks want to trade out, although there are few takers.
"If you are looking for a certain type of player, there is going to be a group that really appeals to you and there is going to be another group that you just really don't have much use for but are going to be drafted because teams are going to looking for those types of players," said New England coach Bill Belichick, whose best pick ever was a lucky one: quarterback Tom Brady in the sixth round of the 2000 draft.
Team matches up with Aggies to end regular season
The Kansas women's tennis team will play host to Texas &M Sunday at the Robinson Courts in Lawrence as the regular season comes to an end.
For Kansas, it's been a year of struggles. Between Jan, 29 and Feb. 27, the Jayhawks lost seven straight matches.
The Jayhawks are in the midst of their second losing drought of the season,losing their last six matches.
Kansas freshman Stephanie Smith, who is tied with junior Christine Skoda for the team lead with seven conference victories, has won five straight matches.
She has been a consistent performer this season, edging out freshman teammate Anna Jackson to claim the number six spot in singles.
The largest inconsistency for Kansas this season has been in the doubles competition. The Jayhawks have lost six straight doubles' point opportunities.
In collegiate women's tennis, competition begins with the doubles schedule. In Kansas' case, the team has been forced to rally from behind in the singles competition to make up for the lost point in doubles.
The Aggies, under two-time Big 12 Coach of the Year Bobby Kleinecke, have endured a down year by their standards.
Having finished second or higher in each of the last three seasons in the Big 12 Conference, the Aggies are currently fourth in the conference standings.
Texas A&M was defeated by in-state rival Texas on Wednesday.
Walker possesses a powerful serve and is one of the top competitors for the Aggies, Kleinecke said.
Texas A&M senior Lauren Walker has picked up the pace for the last few weeks, winning six matches.
Last spring, the Aggies swept the Jayhawks, 7-0, at College Station.

Kansas prepares to face Cincinnati
2016

KANSAN SWITTERWIFI
The KU rowing 2nd Varsity Eight tries to pull past Kansas State during the Kansas Cup on Saturday April 9. The team competed in the Knecht Cup Finals April 17 earning first place in the First Varsity Four and second in the Second Varsity Four race. The Jayhawks will travel to Cincinnati, Ohio tomorrow to compete against Cincinnati and Buffalo.
Compared to last weekend's regatta in Camden, N.J., the Kansas rowing team's races tomorrow in Cincinnati could seem less tiring. Last weekend, each boat raced at least six times on Saturday before turning around to compete for the finals on Sunday.
The team left this morning and will race tomorrow starting at 8 a.m. against Cincinnati and Buffalo. Racing against two opponents will seem simple compared to the regatta coach Rob Catloth had the team compete in last weekend. At the Knecht Cup, Kansas competed against more than 20 teams.
"One of the reasons Rob chooses that regatta is because we have to race against so many teams," senior Erin Hennessey said. "The best way to improve is race, and that's what we learned how to do last weekend. We learned how to race when we're tired. This will help us tomorrow because the few races that we have will seem a lot easier."
Last weekend the First Varsity Eight boat struggled in
its first race. The boat is typically strong in the last 500 meters, but in the grand final, its start was the strongest in the first 500. The team then slipped to ninth place.
"As a whole we did well," senior coxswain LeAnna Kemp said. "All we can do is go out there tomorrow and compete, like we've been doing in previous weekends. Everyone got a lot of experience in New Jersey
so we're going to compact everything we've learned in our races tomorrow."
Last year in Lawrence, Kansas defeated Cincinnati in the First Varsity Eight by 20 seconds, but Cincinnati took the Varsity Four and the Second Varsity Eight.
The team raced against Buffalo last weekend.
"We're going in there to win," Catloth said. "Our varsity eight
beat them last weekend, so we should have good results tomorrow."
The team is now at the midpoint of the season and is focusing on its final regattas and the NCAA South-Central Regionals May 14-15.
"We're on the downhill slide now, being more focused towards centrals," Hennessey said. "We obviously want to do good in every regatta, but we
Every regatta until regionals is viewed as a stepping stone, Kemp said.
especially want to keep improving like we are now. The closer we get to Regionals, the better our mind set gets."
"Tomorrow will just be another step towards our goal," she said. "All our races are built up for regionals."

Cardinals victory stunts Cubs' sweep
ST. LOUIS — Chris Carpenter pitched a seven-hitter and Scott罗olen homered, doubled and had three RB1, helping the St. Louis Cardinals beat the Chicago Cubs 2-0 yesterday.
The Cardinals, who broke open a one-run game in the eighth inning on homers by Larry Walker and Rolen, are 32-10 at home against the Cubs during the last six seasons and denied them a sweep of a two-game series. The Cubs, who learned before the game that shortstop Nomar Garciaparra

would be out two to three months because of a torn groin, haven't had a sweep in St. Louis since 1988.
Chicago had two runners on in an inning three times, but Carpenter escaped and defeated Chicago for the fifth time in six decisions during the last two seasons.
Chicago's best shot came in the sixth when catcher's interference on an apparent inning-ending double-play ball by
Corey Patterson put runners on first and second. They moved up on a wild pitch, but Carpenter struck out Aramis Ramirez and retired Jeromy Burnitz on a soft liner to center.
Ryan Dempster (1-3) allowed one run and four hits in six innings for the Cubs, and one of his three walks was costly. Walker walked to start the fourth, and Jim Edmonds reached on a one-out infield hit that Ramirez knocked down at third with a dive but couldn't turn into an out. Rolen then doubled down the left-field line.
St. Louis, which left the bases loaded in the fourth, made it 2-0 in the eighth when
Walker homered off Mike Remlinger. Rolen added a two-run homer against Chad Fox.

K-State guard jets for new position
MANHATTAN — Fred Peete, a sophomore guard who averaged 13 points a game for Kansas State last season, is leaving the team, coach Jim Wooldridge said yesterday.
Pete, a Memphis native who graduated from high school in Pullman, Wash., transferred to Kansas State
after a year at Northeastern Oklahoma A&M. He started all 29 games for the Wildcats and averaged five rebounds, 3.8 assists and 2.1 assists. He hit 44 of 126 (34.9 percent) of his 3-point shots.
"Fred has expressed his desire to exclusively play the point guard position," Wooldridge said. "He feels like this is his best position to reach his goal of playing in the NBA. Consequently, he has decided to transfer to a program where he can play the point guard position 100 percent of the time. We wish him the best as he pursues his individual goals."
Twins take two in Kansas City series
The Associated Press
MINNEAPOLIS — While batting with the bases loaded has not been Minnesota's strength this season, the Twins started to break that dangerous trend in a two-game sweep of the Kansas City Royals.
During a two-game sweep earlier this week by the AL Central-leading Chicago White Sox, Minnesota went 0-for-6 with the bases full and grounded into two double plays. After Ford's big hit, the Twins are still batting only .167 (4-for-24) in those situations.
"We're starting to get some of them in," manager Ron Gardenhire said. "We've got a few people who need to get better."
Jason Bartlett doubled with one out against Shawn Camp (0-1), Torii Hunter was intentionally walked and Matthew LeCroy singled to load the bases. Ford's bouncer up the middle scored Bartlett to end it.
"We're putting ourselves in position to win ballgames," Kansas City's John Buck said, "and for one reason or another not getting the job done."
That's the way Minnesota felt in Chicago, dropping two to the rival White Sox. But the Twins have since rebounded at the plate.
Angel Berroa's single drove in Mike Sweeney in the ninth to put Kansas City ahead briefly.
But closer Mike MacDougal relinquished the lead and nearly lost it in the bottom of the ninth. Pinch-hitter Terry Tiftee struck out with the bases loaded, ending the inning.
Hunter's walk was what the Royals regretted most.
"That's the worst thing that can happen," manager Tony Pena said.
Hunter hit a two-run homer in the first, and LeCroy followed with a solo shot. Hunter drove in three runs.

once. It's a pitch hung here, a fielding error there, a wild throw, an inopportune walk — the small leaks that sink a ship.
Of course, the good thing about "almost" is that eventually it almost always evolves into "is" and "are" — as in Kansas is a competitor in the Big 12, as in the balls are finally bouncing the Jayhawks' way. And with 15 conference games to go before the tournament starts at the end of May, Kansas has more than enough time to put itself in position to compete in the post-season — a run it could begin today by opening its weekend series at Texas Tech with a victory. But for now, the Jayhawks are losers of five straight, in the midst of their biggest slump of the season and still waiting for "almost" to shift to consistent success.
"We just need to get back on track." Price said following the loss to the Shockers. "We're at that point where we need to get rewarded for how hard we've worked and how hard we've played."

possibility of moving him to the linebacker position. "I think that being a linebacker may be more of a natural position for me," McMillan said. "They like my size right now though."
Domann said scouts would be impressed by McMillan's versatility.
"David's a guy who initially can come in and play on third downs and be a D-end," Domann said. "They are not looking for a guy to be superman yet. David has a lot of versatility where he can come in and be very valuable because he can play multiple positions."
McMillan led the Jayhawks with seven sacks and 13 tackles for a loss last fall. McMillan finished his career on a strong note when he recorded three sacks against Missouri in his final game. For his career at Kansas, McMillan had 12 quarterback sacks.
McMillan is not the only Jayhawk that may be drafted this weekend. Senior center Joe Vaughn said he hoped to be drafted in the later rounds, but his size might also be concern. Senior wide receiver Brandon Rideau has the size that NFL scouts look for in a receiver and Rideau, like Vaughn, may be drafted in the later rounds. If these players are not drafted, they could be signed as free agents and work to get a spot on the roster through training camp.
McMillan spoke with Vaughn recently, he said.
McMillan spoke with Vaughn recently, he said. "I hope for the best for them, so that they can get drafted and show everyone that they can play on that level also." McMilan said.

Big crowds highlight LPGA event
- Edited by Austin Caster
BY WILL WEISSERT THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
MORELIA, Mexico — Natalie Gulbis shot a 6-under 66 yesterday to take a two-stroke lead in the Corona Morelia Championship, while Lorena Ochoa struggled to a 71 in her second LPGA Tour event in her homeland.
Sweden's Carin Koch was two strokes back at 68 along with Audra Burks. Burks had an eagle, three birdies and a bogev.
Nancy Scranton offset three bogeys with six birdies and was tied for fourth place with Sweden's Maria Hjorth and Italy's Giulia Sergas at 69 on the Tres Marias Residential Golf Club course.
The 22-year-old Gulbis started on the back nine and, after opening with a par, reeled off three straight birdies. She added three more after making the turn, using a long, accurate drives to stay out of trouble.
"I'm very fortunate that I have good distance off the tee and that definitely helped on a golf course like this one," said Gulbis, whose six birdies came on putts of less than 10 feet. "I had a lot of wedges today ... and you can fire at pins when you have short wedges in your hand."
Gulibs, looking for her first victory in her fourth LPGA season, said she's been in the lead on tour "six to 10 times."
Guillermo Arias/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
"It's not a lot of pressure, but there are very good players on tour," she said.
Natalie Gulbis of the United States acknowledges the gallery after finishing her round on the ninth hole during the first round of the LPGA Corona Morela Championship yesterday at the Tres Marias Residential Golf Club, in Morelia City, Mexico. Gulbis finished the day at 6-under par.
third, she hit an 8-iron into the water, and settled for a double bogey.
Burks made eagle at the 355-yard, par-4 17th, her eighth hole, sinking a 129-wedge wedge shot.
The 23-year-old native of Guadalajara, just 175 miles from colonial Morlela, is tied for 28th and is very familiar with the layout.
"The first round is the hardest one, so I'm over with that." Ochoa said. "I know where I am right now and I think I'm going to feel more relaxed tomorrow. The good thing is I know the course, I know the leaders, how they play."
Ochoa was the story heading into the event. She won twice last year to become the LPGA Tour's first Mexican champion and is trying for the second time to win in her homeland.
Ochoa started on the back nine and bogeyed Nos. 11 and 13. She made birdie at Nos. 14 and 18 and added another at the second. At the par-3
"I hit the ball pretty good," she said. "Just a couple of bad shots and it cost me a lot of strokes."
Ochoa's opening round mirrored a disappointing start in the LPGA's first visit to Mexico earlier this year. At that event, she appeared nervous and opened with a 1-under 71, five strokes behind eventual winner Annika Sorenstam, who is not competing this week.
Ochoa insisted nerves weren't a problem, despite hundreds of cheering fans, including dozens who followed
her every hole, trudging up steep hills despite stifling temperatures in the high 80s and blazing sunshine.
Crowd noise and a large press following slowed Ochoa's round, which lasted more than five hours. The raucous atmosphere drew complaints from other players.
The crowds are expected to get larger this weekend, and 100 friends and family members were expected to arrive in Morelia to cheer on Ochoa.
Ochoa has overcome listless opening rounds before. At the Takefuji Classic in Las Vegas last week. Ochoa used a career-best 63 to charge into
contention and eventually finished second to Wendy Ward.
"What happened last week, it helped me a lot," Ochoa said.
Ward, playing the week after a victory for the first time, opened with a 71.
Jennifer Rosales of the Philippines, withdrew after seven holes because of an injury to her right wrist.
Rosales said she hurt the same wrist last year, causing her to withdraw from some tournaments. She also withdrew from the MasterCard Classic last month after stepping in a hole and twisting her ankle.

The Kansas baseball team will try to snap its current fivegame losing streak this weekend when it travels to Lubbock, Texas, to play a Big 12 Conference series with Texas Tahw
Kansa s' struggles stem from both sides of the ball. In last week's four losses, the Jayhawks (24-19, 3-9 Big 12) scored only nine

total runs. The bats seem to be heating up, however. In Wednesday's 11-9 loss to Wichita State, Kansas matched its total from the previous week.
"We've been struggling with the bats for about a week, so it's good to get some good swings and some confidence," junior outfielder A.J. Van Slyke said. "We're going to have to score a lot of runs against Texas Tech. They're a good team."
The Red Raiders (24-13, 6-8) are led offensively by senior shortstop Cameron Blair. He is hitting .391 on the season with 12 home runs and 44 RBI.
Texas Tech has struggled on the mound this season. As a team they have an ERA of 5.39. Tech allowed 24 runs in a three-game series against Kansas State last weekend.
Kansas coach Ritch Price said this weekend would present the biggest three-game stretch that the Jayhawks had
"We've been struggling with the bats for about a week, so it's good to get some good swings and some confidence. We're going to have to score a lot of runs against Texas Tech." A.J.Van Slyke
played so far this season.
"We went there two years ago and won the series," Price said. "It propelled us to a series win the next weekend. We're in the same must-win situation now."
Jayhawk pitching was solid at times last week. They threw well in a 5-1 loss at Wichita State, and Sunday's game against Baylor saw a great starting effort by junior Kodiak Quick go to waste in the ninth inning. Price said the pitching staff would be all right despite its recent struggles, including Wednesday's game.
"It might be the change in routine," Price said, referring to his decision to change the pitching rotation for this weekend and senior Mike Zagurski's struggles Wednesday night. "Hopefully Z will be fine this weekend when we get to Texas Tech."
Price said he felt that the recent losing ways had snow-
balled on the Jayhawks.
"When you've lost tour or five in a row, it's tough," Price said. "You feel like every time you're at the plate you're down and you've got to get a base hit to tie the game. We just have to be strong enough and tough enough to get through it."
The Red Raiders are struggling as well. They enter this series after losing two out of three to Kansas State in Manhattan last weekend. They sit in sixth place
in the conference.
"They're a quality team," Price said. "They're a completely different team at home than they are on the road. We're going to have to go in and pitch well, play as good a defense as we did Sunday against Baylor and get our bats going again, too."
Game times for the weekend are 6:30 p.m today, 2 p.m. tomorrow and 1 p.m. Sunday.

Defensive drafts weak for Chiefs
BY DOUG TUCKER THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — In Carl Peterson's first draft as the Kansas City Chiefs' general manager, he picked Derrick Thomas. In the 15 drafts since, just two of his other defensive picks have made the Pro Bowl.
It's a slump that Peterson doesn't have much time to break.
For the past three seasons, the Chiefs' offense has set all sorts of records, sending five players to the Pro Bowl last season. But Trent Green, Priest Holmes, Willie Roaf and Will Shields aren't getting any younger, and playing with a defense that has ranked at the bottom of the league for three straight seasons has kept them from posting a single playoff win.
Should Peterson again fail to find a defensive star in the draft, the Chiefs could end up looking back at the first years of the 21st century as a wasted opportunity.
Peterson won't say who he has on the draft board. But with the 15th pick, cornerbacks Carlos Rogers of Auburn and Adam "Pacman" Jones of West Virginia and linebackers Kevin Burnett of Tennessee and Darryl Blackstock of Virginia are all possibilities.
After the 2003 season, the Chiefs chose to stand pat with their defensive personnel, replacing only coordinator Greg Robinson with former coach Gunther Cunningham. The new attitude and new scheme made little difference, as did the play of 2004 top choice Junior Slavii.
This offseason, Peterson has been active in the free agent market. Already signed are inside linebacker Kendrell Bell, safety Sammy Knight and reserve passrush specialist Carlos Hall.
Still pending is a possible trade with Miami for three-time Pro
Bowl cornerback Patrick Surtain, which could affect Kansas City's draft day strategy. The Chiefs have been haggling for weeks with the Dolphins and Surtain's agent, and Peterson cautioned this week that the deal may not get done.
The team has yet to work out a contract agreement with Surtain and they're still arguing about compensation with the Dolphins, who want a second-round pick.
"I do not want to give up our second draft choice, no," Peterson said. "We feel that we can draft a very good football player in the second round with the 46th pick. That's where I've been from the beginning with this thing."
The Chiefs could also wind up dealing 2006 draft choices to the Dolphins.
If the Chiefs do draft a quality defensive player, it will be the first in some time. Along with Siavili, the team's recent failures include tackle Ryan Sims, who has yet to show the promise expected of the sixth overall pick of 2002.
But Peterson said it's mostly members of the media who are bothered by the team's draft record.
"It's not dead, and it really doesn't have to happen before the draft," Peterson said. "We're running out of time to get it done before this particular draft."
"We have 72,000 season ticket holders," Peterson said. "We've renewed 95 percent of those people again this year.
"I haven't had a letter or a fax or a phone call from any of those people. And honest to goodness, I haven't had any letters from outside of that, if you want to say, sphere of people who I consider real Kansas City Chiefs fans because they step up each year and put their money down and say, 'I'm here to see the Chiefs.'"

KU finalizes contract with adidas
By Ross Fitch
rfitch@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
The University of Kansas Athletics Department formally confirmed yesterday a longswirling rumor by announcing its $26.67 million, eight-year contract with adidas. The new contract means a break from the department's 14-year partnership with Nike.
The department signed another contract last week with ESPN Regional Television. The agreement reached last Thursday is for a $40.2-million, seven-year contract extension.
The new adidas contract, which translates into roughly $3.3 million a year in cash and product, is markedly superior to the contract the department had with Nike, which was for $650,000 in cash and product a year.
The main difference between the Nike and adidas contracts is that adidas will cover all 17 KU varsity sports, whereas Nike concentrated on football and men's and women's basketball.
"It puts us in a whole other stratosphere." Perkins said.
Mangino is obligated to make two appearances per year and wear Nike apparel at all official football events.
Adidas will supply practice gear, warm-ups, uniforms and footwear. Both football coach Mark Mangino and basketball coach Bill Self have portions of their contracts devoted to their relationship with official Athletics Department apparel providers.
In Self's contract, it is spelled out that he will receive at least $350,000 from Nike for advertisement or promotion of its
The department and Nike did not have a fallout, said Jim Marchiony, associate athletics director, and Nike had served the University well during the past years. Rather, he said the department more appreciated what aladas was bringing to the table.
"We were impressed with adidas' recognition of the value on the entire KU athletics program," he said. "Adidas will provide excellent customer service, more product for our student athletes and coaches and more revenue for the KU athletics program."
Athletics director Lew Perkins said the department generated about $66 million for the University for the next seven to eight years with the two contracts.
SPONSORSHIPS
adidas sponsors several universities in all sports:
Nebraska Cornhuskers
- Indiana Hoosiers
North Carolina State Wolfpack
Notre Dame Fighting Irish
Pittsburgh Panthers
- Tennessee Volunteers

Wisconsin-Madison Badgers

products. All of these provisions will carry over to the new contract with adidas.
GREEK LIFE
The deal was agreed to on March 30, but it still awaited signatures and settlement of final details. The new contract will officially take effect after Nike's contract expires on June 30.
The University of Kansas' $26.67 million contract, which extends through 2013, is one of addidas largest contracts in the country.
Not much will change for the University's basketball and football programs, but the other varsity sports benefit dramatically.
Kansas baseball coach Ritch Price said that, with adidas covering uniforms and player supplies, more money would be put it the team's budget to travel and, in return, receive better schedules.
Recruiting will also benefit because the University is one of the few premiere adidas programs in the country, he said.
The contract extension with ESPN Regional Television, which will take effect July 1, will pay the University $5.74 million a year. The current contract, which has been in place since July 1999, pays the University $1.8 million a year.
Kansas women's soccer coach Mark Francis said the deal would aid his team because adidas is a soccer company.
Marchiony said the department would use part of the contract's revenue to purchase and install a video board in Allen Fieldhouse before the start of the next basketball season. But he said the board was not a stipulation of the contract.
The agreement grants ESPN Regional multimedia rights and corporate sponsor rights.

The 163 women of Pi Beta Phi, 1612 W. 15th St., were required to use a fingerprint scanner to unlock the door. But the system had frozen because of the cold weather. Phillips thought about ringing the doorbell, but none of the women could hear it from their rooms upstairs. After five minutes, she finally reached a sororit-
ty member and was let into the house.
Next winter, Phillips won't need to worry about a frozen security system. Pi Beta Phi spent thousands of dollars on a new palm-scanner called Hand Key II this February. The sorority, like many Greek houses at the University, has improved its security this school year.
Sorority members are concerned more about personal safety, while fraternity members are more concerned about their possessions.
Some houses, such as Sigma Delta Tau sorority, are responding to break-ins. Others, like Pi Kappa Phi fraternity, want the best prevention possible. Generally both men and women in the Greek community are concerned about security, but while men cared most about their possessions, women cared most about personal safety. All greeks know that safety is something that potential new members want to know about.

A group of engineering students from the University of Kansas placed third in the Aero Design West competition held by the Society of Automotive Engineers in Fort Worth, Texas.

The team attempted to carry 18 pounds but a landing gear problem disqualified them, he said.
Students have done well in the competitions in the past and Hale expected the group to rank high again this year.
Construction on the plane began in January. The design for the craft was developed by Kyle Hunt, Wamego senior and project manager.

Students step it up for show
Shouts of "SKEE-E WEE," "Z-PHI" and "O-SIX" echoed throughout the Lied Center Saturday night as National Pan-Hellenic Council members of Alpha Kappa Alpha, Zeta Phi Beta and Alpha Phi Alpha at the University of Kansas their calls.
The special event was the NPHC's annual KU Greek Step Show.
Hundreds of people filled the Lied Center to see six greek performances and three dance skits. The show started off with a step routine by about 10 members of Panhellenic sororities. The girls poked fun at their annual "Rock Chalk Revue," in which members of Panhellenic sororites and Interfraternity Council fraternities perform to raise money for charity.
The girls surprised the crowd and received applause when they started to step like the National Pan-Hellenic Greeks, whose step routines incorporated African influences and movements.
Unity, a University hip-hop dance group, provided another non-National Pan-Hellenic performance. The group incorporated both slow dance and new
hip-hop moves. The surprise of Unity's show came when men's basketball player J.R. Giddens, who is a member of the group, performed with it.
Enjioli Dixon, Jefferson City, Mo. senior, said she liked Unity's dance moves and how the groups showed that there were other ways to be involved on campus than through just Greek organizations.
Some highlights of the night came when the Sigma Lambda Beta fraternity, a Hispanic organization, came out and did a "Beta Beach Lounge" skit with palm trees. The crowd laughed when the men brought out a Prince impersonator. The group parodied Prince because its members are known as the "purple guys" on campus, on account of the fraternity's colors.
"I enjoyed the Sigma Lambda Beta skit a lot because it was cultural and really unique and unusual." Dixon said.
The women of Zeta Phi Beta sorority put on another memorable act. Their skit imitated the show "America's Next Top Model," but their skit was titled "The Next Top Sorority." The women showed a lot of attitude in their stepping, prompting crowd interaction and cheering.
To add to the show's excitement the men of Phi Beta Sigma fraternity took

Many out-of-state students spent the first night of Passover at the homes of friends in the Kansas City area or other cities close to Lawrence.

"It's a way for us to keep reliving our history," Terkel said.

Regardless if family was present, the group inside the Lawrence Jewish Community Center prayed, sang and ate the specially prepared food made to celebrate Passover.

Earth, AIDS supporters join the pride

KANSAN STAFF WRITER
The more than 200-person march started at South Park, 1141 Massachusetts St., and worked its way down to Watson Park at Sixth and Tennessee streets.
"Corn, Corn, Beans, Beans; Kansas is full of dikes and queens" shouted members and supporters of the University of Kansas Queens and Allies in Saturday's Pride March.
Rachel Seymour/KANSAN
The marchers flew rainbow flags and held signs that said "Proud and Loud," "Homophobia Hurts God" and "Queer is not a four letter word, but Fred is."
More than one march was scheduled that afternoon and after people from the Earth Day parade and the AIDS Walk 2005 finished their route they joined the initial group of 118 Pride marchers.
Jimmie Manning, Q&A director, said this year's march had 100 more marches from last year's.
The march was a highlight of Q&A'S Pride Week, which included last Monday's Kiss-In, the Queen Awards and Friday's Brown Bag Drag Show.
Pride Week was a time to get out, have fun and let people know they are not alone, Manning said.
"It's kind of nice to be optimistic," he said. "If we let ourselves slip into a bad attitude things will never change."
Organizations such as the Kansas Unity and Pride Allegiance, Network Q, Lawrence High School and Free State's Gay/Straight Alliance and the lawrence Kansas Unitarians also participated in the march.
Mike Rundle, city commissioner and former mayor, waved from the lead car.
After the march Rundle, who publicly announced he was gay earlier this month, gave a speech where he said how proud he was to be out.

Allison Hansen, Spring Hill graduate student, enjoys watching "Monty Python and the Holy Grail" with her fiance, Maureen Warren, Garden City senior, would rather watch a good Clint Eastwood film.
While they might not agree on movies, both women do agree that early next year, they will be walking down the aisle together.
"Amendment, no amendment, we're getting married," Warren said.
The march was part of Pride Week, which, after the April 5 vote that allowed for a constitutional ban on gay marriage, had new meaning for Hansen and Warren. At the march the couple proudly carried a sign saying they were going to get married.
The couple marched along with other Queers and Allies members in Saturday morning's Pride March downtown on Massachusetts Street.
Hansen and Warren plan to have their wedding ceremony with the Unitarian Fellowship of Lawrence, 1263 N. 1100 Road. Warren said they would also file for power of attorney and a living will with a lawyer. Although they recognize that their marriage will not be legalized, Hansen and Warren said they were prepared to face their inevitable obstacles together.
Hansen first met Warren back in the fall of 2003 during a Queers and Allies pub crawl. There was an instant attraction when Hansen laid eyes on Warren.
"I thought she was really pretty," Hansen said. "She just kind of won my heart over."
At first Warren did not take Hansen's advances as a sign of attraction. Hansen had just received an award for "Ally of the Year," leading Warren to

They then had to share the news of their relationship with Hansen's family.
Hansen considers herself bisexual and had never had a long-term relationship with a woman. She also had never told her parents about her sexual orientation.
"All the red flags were there, but I kind of missed the boat," Warren said.
She said that when she was younger her parents had spoken to her about homosexuality and that although they would always love her, they would worry about the way she would be treated.
Hansen's determination to maintain a lesbian relationship, but was reassured when Hansen came out during last year's spring break. Hansen said her parents were understanding and soon invited Warren to come and visit.
Warren had already come out to her parents, and they had accepted it.
The following. November Warren proposed.
While she is happy about the prospects of their wedding, Warren said she had some concerns about the politics of gay marriage that would be hanging over them.
At first Warren doubted
"It can be difficult when people want to see the wedding as a political statement," Warren said. "The ceremony is not a public gesture, it's about publicly committing to each other."

Greek houses face burglaries Greek chapter houses have been burglarized 134 times in the past seven years. Below are the locations of the chapters and the number of burglaries that have occurred since 1908
The annex of Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity, 407 W. 17th St., was broken into four times this semester. The chapter spent $100 to install five-inch pins that push through the window to the window sill for more security.

Securing
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
Pi Kappa Phi fraternity enacted a policy in the fall that fined members $50 for going onto the fire escape. The policy prevents people from entering through open doors from the fire escapes.
"I want to be able to go to bed at night knowing that I'm safe and no one's wandering around the house that shouldn't be here," said Zack Zimmerman, Pi Kappa Phi president and Wichita junior. "If there's any way I can ensure my safety, then I'm going to do it."
Even though the system cost $10,000, Phillips said it was worth it.
Pi Beta Phi's security system was installed Feb. 16 in the front and the back of the house. While the sorority hadn't had any recent break-ins, members wanted to make sure they could prevent them and wanted to update the technology.
Benefits of Increased Security
"We haven't heard of any incidents at all since the security device was put in," Phillips said. "Being alone during late hours feels very secure in the house, as if I was in my own home in Texas."
The sorority has had few security problems.
Since 1998, the house has had one burglary and one theft.
"In sororites within the greek system, security is a must," said Katy Ibsen, Pi Beta Phi president.
The new system is easy to use, and it won't freeze up in the
winter because it has a covering that protects it. Members of Pi Beta Phi enter a personal code and put their palm on a scanner before the door will unlock.
The system logs when mem-
The system to bers enter the house, which helps the investigation of thefts and break-ins, Phillips said.
"If something was stolen or a guy was found walking around, you can go into the history of the program and question the people that came into the house during a similar time to see if they know any thing," Phillips said.
The Statistics
Lawrence Police Department
records show that 134 burglaries were reported in 30 fraternity and sorority chapter houses since 1998. Fraternities reported 89 incidents, while sororities had 45.
Break-ins are included in the burglary numbers, Capt. Dave Cobb, Lawrence Police Department, said.

someone physically took something by force, he said.
The Lawrence Police Department has received 3,622 calls from 28 chapter houses since 1998 — 2,426 from fraternities and 1,196 from sororities. However, not all calls were about security problems. For example, 500 calls were about towing cars.
What Other Chapters Are Doing
On Feb. 12, sometime around 4 a.m., a man got into the Sigma Delta Tau sorority house at 1625 Edgehill Road. Since then, the chapter has increased security around the house, particularly at night.
Stefani Gerson, Overland Park junior, was in her room on the second floor when the intruder came in. She saw a light from his cell phone and jumped up. The man quickly ran down the stairs and out the back door.
Even though that shook Gerson, she was more worried about other security issues.
"Walking up the hill is a bigger fear than the actual house," Gerson said. "I really don't feel any less sate in the house because of that."
The sorority does not have a parking lot, so members park down the hill from their house. The walk up the hill is very dark at night. Gerson said.
On March 5, the sorority installed 12 solar light fixtures on the walkway to the house.
The 12 lights cost $100, but may not offer enough security.
"I'm thinking about replacing those with spotlights so they can be even brighter," Gerson said.
She said before the lights were installed, she ran up the hill talking on her cell phone.
"In the house, I feel safe," Gerson said. "Outside during the day, I feel perfectly safe. Outside at night, I don't feel safe."

GREEK SECURITY
Micah Swade, Lewisburg sophomore, reads in the living room of the annex of Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity. Burglar took DVD players, DVDs and video games from annex members this semester.
lights had been on the sorority's agenda for a long time. The light installation became the number one priority after the February incident.
The front entrance of the sorority house already had an automatic lock and the back doors have manual locks. The intruder got in the house from an unlocked door, Vrona said.
Fraternities on campus have also increased security this semester.
The rule was approved last September. Anyone caught on the escape is fined $50.
Zimmerman, Pi Kappa Phi president, said he enacted a house policy last fall that prohibited anyone from going out on the three fire escapes.
In December, someone tried to enter the house from a fire escape on the fourth floor, Zimmerman said. He and his roommate chased the man to 15th and Kentucky St. and then called the police, he said. Police caught the man, but Zimmerman said he did not know what happened to him.
There is a security code to the back door of Pi Kappa Phi, 1537 Tennessee St., which is the most used entrance, Zimmerman said. The fraternity has 15 entrances. Because the house has so many entrances, Zimmerman said he advised members of the fraternity to lock the doors every night. At Pi Kappa Phi, the fire escape incident was the only break-in that the fraternity has dealt with this academic year.
Problems with Security
Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity, 1645 Tennessee St., has had security problems at the annex across the street.
The "South Annex" of the fraternity was broken into four times this semester, said John Krause, Overland Park junior and resident of the annex.
About $40,000 worth of possessions was stolen in four months, he said. After one break-in, a car was stolen last November. Someone broke into the annex, took one of the resident's car keys and stole his car. It was missing for about three weeks before police ran a car check and located it, Krause said.
Annex residents have responded. The house paid $100 for five-inch pins that push through the window into the window sill for more security, Krause said. But he still doesn't think that will keep burglaries away.
"Sometimes, a really strong wind could break these windows," he said. "In the summer, if these guys want in, they'll get back in."
Two of the burglaries occurred during winter break and spring break when fewer students were present.
Burglar have stolen DVDs, DVD players and video games, Krause said.
"It got to the point to where we expected it each time," he said. "I took my DVD player home over spring break."

"These, people are from the bottom of the social hierarchy, he said, referring to the burglars. 'They're cowards, they're desperate, and they can't make a living, so they're doing something stupid."
Still. Krause feels safe at the
The fraternity has had other security problems.
Sigma Phi Epsilon members had had their cars broken into on three consecutive weekends last semester, said Sam Pickell, Sigma Phi Epsilon president. Five cars were damaged.
"We had guys volunteer to sit out at the parking lot on a Friday and Saturday night when the cars were all getting broken into," Pickell said. "But of course on that weekend, nothing happened."
Eric Corder's Camaro was broken into last September. The Ottawa junior said the incident happened around 6 a.m. and he found out about it at 11 a.m. when he went outside to the parking lot to find someone else's car door open.
His own car was locked, Someone had probably gotten into his car by breaking the hatch of his trunk with a screwdriver. Corder said.
Piles of his belongings were spread across the floor of his car. His sunroof was open. Corder's subwoofer from his trunk were taken, along with CDs.
"I had those subwoofers custom built and that cost me about $600," he said. "I had a large amount of CDs as well, and in the end, I lost about $900 worth. That's something insurance doesn't cover."
Incoming Freshmen
Sigma Phi Epsilon has coded door locks on four of the six entrances. Pickell said he never considered getting an alarm system because too many people came in and out of the house.

concern — security.

"I was freaking out," she said.

Strauber was referring to the incident last year at Jefferson Commons, 2511 W. 31st St., where a man was shot and killed during a party.
Even though Strauber did not live at the sorority house first semester, she said security played an important role in choosing a house.
"We first saw the house at midday, so I didn't know if it was going to be dark or lit up at night," she said. "It's really well-lit though."
Phi Kappa Theta fraternity, 1111 W. 11th St., had security problems on April 9.
Recent Incident
Michael Pilshaw, Lawrence junior, said two leather black couches, a black leather loveseat, black leather chairs and three foot rests were found missing between 6 and 9 a.m. The couches were valued at $2,000 and the chair was valued at $400, according to a Lawrence police report.
Since the incident, Phi Kappa Theta hired a security guard to patrol the front of the house from 8 p.m. to 1 a.m. Friday and Saturday nights. Pilshaw said the fraternity had done nothing like this before.
The security guard will monitor a front door on the weekends that has no lock on it. Phi Kappa Theta has a side door and two back doors with locks on them. Pilshaw said.
Unfortunately for Phi Kappa Theta, the security problems were the least of their concerns. The fraternity was expelled from campus because of an unregistered party on Feb. 19.
"Since we're moving out at the end of the year, we'd rather do this than buy a security system." Pilshaw said.
But while Phi Kappa Theta may be able to ignore security concerns for now, most greek houses are continually adapting to confront them.

Students at residence halls are less concerned than fraternity and sorority houses about security related issues. Scholarship hall residents are more aware.
"I feel like we have a closeknit community, said Matt Henley, Hashinger resident and Fort Smith, Ark. freshman. "We play practical jokes on people, like taking away a computer and hiding it, but I feel pretty safe."
Residence halls have security at night in the form of desk assistants, or "deskles," who check residents into the building by scanning their KUIDs after 11 p.m. The only time security has been inefficient at Hashinger was when the KUID card scanners did not work. Deskies had to manually look up residents on lists to make sure they lived there, Henley said.
The biggest security issue at GSP comes from people going out the side doors late at night. Everyone must check in and out at the front entrance, Laubner said.
"I've never had anyone try to enter from another location other than the front," said Kyle Laubner, GSP desk assistant and Burlington freshman.
This causes an alarm to go off. Deskies are advised to go
after these individuals and report them to the associate complex director, Laubner said.
"This happens once a week," Laubner said. "But I've really encountered anyone that would make me feel unsafe there."
Everyone must check in and out of the front entrance, Laubner said.
Residents at the scholarship halls are not as concerned about security related issues as well, but they remember earlier problems.
K. K. Amini Scholarship Hall had problems with the thefts two years ago around December. The front door was only locked overnight and during break, as opposed to other scholarship halls that automatically locked their doors at all times, said Steve Bagwell, K.K. Amini resident and Lawrence senior.
People broke into the scholarship hall director's room and took residents' room keys. Bagwell has lived in the scholarship hall for four years and played it safe on holiday breaks after the incident.
"I take most of my expensive stuff home over breaks, like my guitars and my computer," he said.
When school is in session and people are around, thefts have not been a concern Bagwell said.

“The UDK has been a significant part of our success over the past 2 semesters. By working with our excellent ad representative, Kathy Truong, we have designed a consistent advertising campaign for Au Marché.
Top of Mind Awareness is a great plan for businesses who want to be in front of the UDK reader on a daily basis...in addition to print ads in the Kansan, Au Marché also receives ad space in Jayplay and at kansan.com-all at a price that a small business can easily afford.
If you are thinking of advertising with the Kansan, I strongly encourage you to do so. We have been very satisfied with the results, and are constantly meeting new people who have learned of Au Marché because of our ads in the UDK.”

Adderall, the study-medication of choice among college and high school stu
dents, is an amphetamine used to treat attention deficit hyperactivity disorder as well as narcolepsy.
In short, it could be classified as a quasi-dosage of speed that helps you concentrate. For someone with severe ADHD, like me, Adderall is a godsend, except when it sends you to the hospital.
Not that spending six hours in the emergency room wasn't fun, but it wasn't exactly how I wanted to squander a beautiful Monday afternoon. After passing out and going into convulsions at Mrs. E's, I found myself strapped in the back of an ambulance, a four-inch IV sticking out of the back of my hand, and wondered to myself, "what the hell just happened?"
A baffled emergency room doctor couldn't really give me an answer, but he speculated that I was reacting to the Adderall I'd been prescribed.
Basically, the Adderall — which is known to produce side effects such as anxiousness, irritability and insomnia — had reacted with my other prescription to cause a severe anxiety attack, and because of the lack of sleep I'd been getting.
I started lashing out in seizure-like convulsions, which all led to two weeks of visits to hospitals, neurological tests, CAT scans, and in short, everything but the complimentary tour bus ride to hell.
So is everyone that takes Adderall at risk of this fun and riveting experience? No, but there are lots of factors to consider before you pop these pills without a prescription.
According to the Genelex Corporation, which specializes in the genetic makeup of reactions to drugs, when you take any type of medication it is deciphered and distributed by a
big command center in your liver. The catch is that because of genetics, everybody's liver metabolizes drugs at a different rate and in different wavs.
Certain medications react with one another in positive and negative ways, and when you are prescribed a medication, doctors make sure you won't be taking anything that will cause a negative reaction.
So while popping an Adderall to study all night is relatively harmless to a perfectly healthy student, it could be fatal to one that takes a drug, which doesn't metabolize correctly with an amphetamine.
According to the FDA, a person that takes an antidepressant classified as an MAO inhibitor or a person with heart problems, an overactive thyroid or high blood pressure should not take Adderall.
Because of 20 international reports of sudden deaths caused by Adderall, the Canadian Health Department has withdrawn the drug from the Canadian market.
According to Health Canada, a Canadian federal department that educates the public about health issues, these deaths were not caused by misuse, overdose or abuse of the drug, but because of mostly medicinal related strokes and heart-related deaths. Adderall is also known to cause hallucinations, difficulty breathing, irregular heartbeats, impotence and diarrhea.
Basically, the bottom line is that while one pill probably won't kill you, you should check out your medical history to make sure it won't send you to the hospital. It's a highly addictive drug, and can be fatal in large doses. Fellow students, please learn to be more responsible with what you put in your body; it's the only one you've got.
Tune in next week for an interview with Joe College: "Hey, it could kill me, but seizures shmeizures, I've got to study. Pass the pills, please."

Legacy of Pride Week thrives even after ban
A. A.
With Pride Week at the University of Kansas only last week, it seems surprising that it is already time for reflection.
The elections came and went, Jim Solmonese, the Human Rights Campaign president, visited campus, the Kiss In, Tim Bergling lecture, Ouver Awards ceremony and
MAUREEN WARREN

Kristie Stremel concert are all over. So much affecting queer campus life has occurred in April.
This year's Pride Week had the theme: "Liberty and Justice for All?" With a state constitution that now outlaws the marriage of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender Kansans as second-class citizens and the threat of a national amendment looming on the horizon, some might think queer people have reason to creep back into their closets.
We have news for the hate-mongers: We are not going back to the closet. The mistake in attacking rights that were non-existent before the election is that a common enemy has mobilized the LGBT community.
Kansans for Fairness formed to fight the amendment but will continue to work collectively long after the amendment was passed.
They have media recognition, resources including a list of over 130 clergy member in Kansas opposing discrimination, and a renewed spirit.
You might be asking yourself how the community spirit could be renewed after a statewide defeat. To understand this, one needs only to examine the history of the LGBT rights struggle here at the University of Kansas. Q&A's History
which can be found at www.ku.edu/-qanda gives a glimpse into the 35-yearstrong student organization.
Most telling is the 1984 "Fagbusters" incident. There were white t-shirts being worn on
campus "with a ghost in a red circle with a slash through it. It was modeled on the "Ghostbusters" logo, only this ghost had long eye lashes and a limp wrist with 'Fagbusters' emblazoned above it" according to Ruth Lichtwardt.
Her writing is included in "A Stroll Down Gavhawk
Lane," the introduction in a book on the history of the KU LGBT community.
Steve Imber, the student selling the shirts was trying to cut funding for Queers & Allies — then called the Gay and Lesbian Services of Kansas.
You can read the entire story on the Q&A site. The important thing to note is that according to the site, the homophobic circumstance's "lasting impact was in politically mobilizing GLSOK members, many of whom ran for Senate and were elected. Funding was assured for 1985, 1986, and so on."
As you can see, you just can't hold the LGBT community down. Attempts to do so will only muster our population. How does this play into Pride Week? The answer is visibility.
The display of queer culture, whether it is an author like Susie Bright's lecture, an awards show to highlight student, faculty, staff and community members who are outstanding, or a concert by singer/songwriter Kristie Stremel benefits us all.
The LGBT community feels pride and camaraderie while heterosexual folks, the allied and the uninitiated alike, can participate in and enjoy the fruits of a thriving culture.
April has been a turbulent but truly revolutionary month in the state of Kansas. Pride Week 2005 is one more chapter of the history of KU queers making their voices heard amid the bigoted calls for our silence. Happy Pride KU!

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Gay community shouldn't actively seek controversy
In response to David Ta's letter on Friday, the idea of needing controversy to expose a homophobic society is like saying we need a house fire to expose a house.
The LGBT community is doing a great thing with "Pride Week" by helping to promote tolerance and acceptance in a conservative state; however, trying to raise a controversy in Kansas isn't a real challenge and only hinders progressive thinking.
where they began.
Ta complained that the picture featured in the Kansan of two women hugging was "not even controversial" and that "it wasn't of two guys kissing or even two guys hugging."
Yet, it showed two people who care for each other, and that is what the primary objective should be; that love is not able to be defined or regulated by laws, and does exist between people of the same sex.
If controversy is all you're after, very few people in the Midwest will be sympathetic toward your cause.
Controversy begets controversy and everyone ends up
How is showing two men kissing going to spark any more acceptance than women hugging?
Showing men dressed as women may be fun for the already accepting, but perhaps more moderate measures in a conservative state might be in order.
Let's face it, risqué doesn't sell in Kansas. Define your market, and work with what you've got.
It's a shame that a majority of people in Kansas don't have open minds and shape their egos on stale, dogmatic principals; but if progression is really your goal, placate the audience by showing the equality of love in all forms, and with all people.
Don't simply do it for the controversy.

Army ROTC students compete in war games
BY JOSHUA BICKEL
jbickel@hansan.com
KANSTAN SAIL WRITER
Guns in hand and packs strapped to their backs, Jerad Hall and Brandon Lundgren prepared to go into battle.
"Go, go, go!" yelled someone.
Hall and Lundgren ran as fast as they could through the grass and then dropped to the ground behind a short wooden wall.
All of a sudden Lundgreen stood up, grenade in hand, while Hall, laying flat on the ground, covered him with his M-16 assault rifle.
Lundgren hurled the grenade over the wall.
He yelled, "Frag Out!," a soldier's warning when releasing a grenade.
Boom!
The grenade exploded on the ground, sending up a column of smoke.
Hall and Lundgren, both cadets in the University of Kansas' Army ROTC program, were competing against other ROTC teams
from across the country.
The University's Army ROTC program hosted the 11th Annual National Buddy Competition on Saturday. One hundred two teams from 25 different colleges competed in the day's events at West Campus.
---
"It's a physically and mentally challenging event," said Maj. Jeff Maxcy, director of KU Army ROTC.
Rachel Seymour/KANSAN
The day began with a five-mile run in the morning, followed by events such as litter carry, compass navigation, grenade assault, weapon assembly and knot-tying. The day ended with a six-mile队 run through West Campus.
Although these events may sound strange to a civilian, they require skills that every soldier in the Army needs.
The competition was the University's second largest in attendance, and most of the participating programs prepared all year for it.

Sam Grabill, Truman State University junior, practices for the knot-tying competition for the Best Ranger Buddy Team ROTC Competition Saturday morning by the Facilities Operations' warehouse.

Springfield, Mo., said that it was a big event for his school, especially because it was its first time at this competition.
Army ROTC cadets stand at attention Saturday during the 11th Annual National Buddy Competition Saturday at West Campus. Four KU teams competed in the day-long event, which began with a five-mile run and ended with a six-mile run.
"We've been training for this since January," he said.
Hall and Lundgren were one of four University teams competing, including one all-female team.

Martin Skovly takes aim at the grenade target as his teammate, Noel Plaetz, backs him up with gun support during an ROTC competition Saturday afternoon by the University's Facilities Operations' warehouse. The South Dakota State University seniors plan to become active duty in the army where such training is needed.
The events challenged the cadets' skills as soldiers and reinforced some of the Army's basic values such as camaraderie and leadership, Capt. Gary Farley, a KU Army ROTC instructor, said.
"We say that we're an 'Army of one,' but we really mean 'one together.' he added.
These values keep soldiers going both in war and competition. Hall said.
Rachel Seymour/KANSAN
"There's no other reason to do this other than the person next to you," said Hall, Lawrence junior.
The camaraderie extended beyond schools, especially in the early morning five-mile run, said Lundgren, Newport News, Va., junior.
"Even though you're competing against each other, everybody is cheering you on," he said.
Leadership and responsibility are stressed throughout the Army ROTC program.
"Most college students wouldn't be out here at six in the morning," Judee Herring, Winchester
sophomore, said.
Herring and Kimberly Waller, Mulvane sophomore, composed the all-female KU team. The fact that she was one of the few women competing, Herring said, pushed her a little more.
Hall and Lundgren finished
18th with a time of one hour and four minutes. Herring and Waller finished 93rd in the sixmile run, but were first overall in the all-female team category.
ing forward to celebrating with his fellow cadets after the competition.
After a day of intense competition,
Lundgren said he was look-
"It was a long day," he said. "But we still have a long night ahead of us."

Pitching crucial to Sooner defeats
Christina Ross, freshman pitcher, throws home during the yesterday afternoon game against Oklahoma at Arrocha Ballpark. Ross pitched all seven innings, allowing one walk, four hits and striking out five. The layhawks defeated the Sooners 4-1.

KANSAN SPORTWRITER
The Kansas softball team swept No. 5 Oklahoma this weekend in a Big 12 Conference match-up at Arrocha Ballpark. The Jayhawks won 5-4 on Saturday in nine innings and 4-1 yesterday.
Christina Ross, freshman pitcher,
carried the team to both victories,
throwing 15 of the 16 innings played
during the weekend.
"Christina was the right match-up against Oklahoma," coach Tracy Bunge said.
"We just put it to them," Ross said.
Ross gave up nine hits, three walks and struck out three on Saturday before Serena Settlemier, junior pitcher, relieved her. Yesterday, she held Oklahoma to four hits, one walk and struck out five in her complete game victory.
Early in the season, Ross struggled with confidence but she has turned things around.
"She is aggressively throwing out on the mound and she decided to come out and pitch her game," Bunge said.
On Saturday, she had four hits with a home run and three RBI. Yesterday, she ignited the team with a three-run home run in the first inning. Moppin said she has become a more consistent hitter this season. She said the timing for these big games came at a good time to start building off of.
Offensively, junior second baseman Jessica Moppin led the Javhaws.
"Sweeping OU is probably the biggest weekend we had the past couple years," Moppin said.
Defensively, Destiny Frankenstein, junior shortstop, had two catches yesterday in the sixth
that helped secure the victory.
Although Frankenstein was from Oklahoma and was recruited by that school, she opted to come to Kansas.
The sweep improved Kansas' record to 22-19 overall and 5-7 in conference play.
"There's nothing better than beating Oklahoma." she said.
The Jahawks have an upcoming break from conference play. Tomorrow, Kansas hosts Arkansas in a doubleheader beginning at 3 p.m. at Arrocho Ballpark.
She came to Kansas because she felt more at home in Lawrence.
On Thursday, they will take on North Dakota State in a doubleheader at Arrocha Ballpark at 3 p.m.
"We need to find a way to keep the momentum going. These are important games for us," Bunge said.

Event increases Relays' turnout
Tim Weaver, Kansas Relays meet director, said there would be two types of people this weekend: those who were at the Gold Zone and those who would say they were at the Gold Zone.
I feel like I should have a new mug shot taken for this column, to prove that I'm one of the ones who was at the Gold Zone.
Believe me, the sunburn is awful.
For those of you who can only say you were at the Gold Zone, it was a three-hour window on Saturday in which the Athletics Department crammed every imaginable final or invitational event together. The new event's claim to fame was that 39 Olympic athletes were supposed to compete. While several, including Stacy Dragila, backed out at the last minute, crowd favorites Maurice Greene, Marion Jones and Leo Bookman all showed.
They drew an announced crowd of 24,200. Weaver and Athletics Director Lew Perkins said. They said it was the second-largest crowd in the 78-year history of the Relaws.
In my estimation, that count probably included every member of the media — and there were quite a few — as well as any number of volunteers and Relays committee members.
Whether the number was inflated doesn't really matter. The Relays certainly garnered more attention than they have in recent years.
Congressman Jim Ryun, KU alumnus and holder of several track records was on-hand for what he estimated was his 40th Kansas Relays. Ryun competed from 1963-72, he said, and continued to attend through the meet's heyday, when the Relays were highlighted by Cold War battles between the United States and the Soviet Union.
He gushed over the intensity of the crowd and the great

Peterson was one of the Olympic athletes brought in for the Gold Zone Invitational. At the U.S. Olympic trials last year, he qualified for last summer's Olympics in Athens, Greece. Milkevics finished second by running in 1:50.29. Peterson finished third with a time of 1:51.62.

Mims spoke of the deep field of competition that was brought in for the invitational, and whether this was the most competitive race of the season.
"As far as names, yes," Mims said. "Dimitri's a guy I can forward to racing against in conference. It's going to be like that all season."

Rain kills Jayhawks' Big 12 shot
BY ALISSA BAUER
abauer@kansan.com
KANSAN SPORTWRITER
A pair of hard-hitting games capped by a rain-out ended the Kansas baseball team's shot at a Big 12 Conference series victory.
Kansas (25-20, 4-10 Big 12) split with Texas Tech (25-13, 7-8 Big 12) after the first two nights of the series, losing 9-7 Friday and winning 13-9 Saturday. The pair of games played out as slugfests, something the Ivahawks are growing accustomed to.
Despite only picking up the split, the Jayhawks outscored the Red Raiders 20-16 in the shortened series. The team offenses combined for 46 hits.
Neither team out-hit the other. In game one, Kansas collected nine hits while Texas Tech had 14. Their numbers were exactly the opposite in game two.
"We're swinging the bats as well as anyone in our conference," coach Ritch Price said.
Price also said that if his club continued hitting that well, the team would have a chance to win every game.
Fellow outfielder A.J. Van Slyke followed up with a two-run homer, his eighth of the season, in the same inning, earning the first two of the three RBI he collected in the series opener. The junior is now tied with junior outfielder Gus Milner to lead the team in home runs.
Kansas looked to be the dominant team as it scored first in both games this weekend. In game one, the Jayhawks jumped out to an early 3-0 lead in the first inning. Junior outfielder Matt Baty opened the series with a double in his first at-bat. He went 5-5 on the evening and hit 5-11 with four RBI and four runs scored on the weekend.
In the top of the sixth, Kansas led 6-4 when it loaded the bases on three different Red Raider pitchers. Junior lefty Carleton Hargrove, the third pitcher of the inning, ended the Jayhawks threat by throwing into a ground-out double play and a strikeout. Despite loading the bases with nobody out, the Jayhawks plated just one run.
"We've been really competitive," Price said. "The frustrating thing is, in the past 15-16 games, we've really been giving ourselves chances to win."
Senior third baseman Carey Avants led the Red Raiders at the plate, going 2-5 with two RBI. One was an RBI double in the eighth that proved to be the winning run.

Cleveland drafts former Jayhawk in fifth round
Former Kansas defensive end David McMillan was selected by the Cleveland Browns in the NFL Draft yesterday.
McMillan was the 138th overall selection and the third pick of the fifth round.
McMillan led the Jayhawks with seven sacks last season, including three in the season finale against the Missouri Tigers. He impressed scouts at the NFL's Scouting Combine in Indianapolis as he ran the 40-yard dash in 4.55 seconds.
McMillan may move to outside linebacker, as many teams he worked out for have expressed interest in moving him from defensive end.
McMillan's agent, Craig Domann, believed McMillan could have been a third round pick. He entered on the bubble of being drafted on the first day of the draft, which has three rounds.
The Brown's will begin next season with a new coach, Romeo Crennel. Crennel left the New England Patriots, where he was the defensive coordinator, to become coach in Cleveland. Crennel helped lead the Patriots to three consecutive Super Bowls.

Inclement Cincinnatiweather leads to regatta's cancellation
Saturday's scheduled rowing regatta in Cincinnati was canceled because of poor weather conditions. Kansas was supposed to race against Cincinnati and Buffalo in Cincinnati at the Harsha Lake in East Fork State Park.
Saturday morning brought rain, sleet and high winds, up to 30 mph, in 30-degree weather. Weather was predicted to worsen in the afternoon, and snow was also predicted.
"It was about as miserable as you can get," coach Rob Catttoth said.
Friday night, when the team arrived, tornado warnings were announced in surrounding areas.
"It was like we were in the center of the badweather universe," Catloth said.
The team was scheduled to visit the local zoo in the afternoon because of the 6 p.m. flight, but that was canceled as well, and the team ended up going to the Newport Shopping Center Complex theater.
"We had a lot of adrenaline and excitement going," senior rower Kristy Hainer said, "But when we were out there staring at the water surrounded by high winds and rain, we were kind of thankful it was canceled."
The regatta will not be rescheduled.
The Jayhawks will compete on April 30 in Austin, Texas, in the Big 12 Championship.

With almost 24,200 watchers at the Kansas Relays last weekend, there were still empty seats in the higher sections.
Marion Jones, the first woman to win five medals in one Olympics, crosses the finish line Saturday afternoon at the Kansas Relays.
Empty seats were caused by fans pressing to the front in order to see Olympic runners in Kansas.
Maurice Greene and Marion Jones both anchored their relay races to wrap up the Gold Zone Invitational on Saturday.
Easily the two most recognizable figures in track and field, Greene and Jones drew fanatic crowds before and after their races. High school athletes came straight from competing in their own races and stalked Jones during her warm ups.
A father, overwhelmed with admiration for Jones, took his young daughter to Jones after her race and asked his daughter to take his picture with Jones. Her relay team. Vector Sports, was disqualified because it
was out of the handoff zone during a baton handoff, but the team still impressed fans. She admitted later that the four women didn't have enough time to prepare.
"The first time we ever handed the button off was yesterday." Jones said.
But she also admitted that although the Relays were an exhibition for her, her competitive drive always came through.
"The Relays are just relays," Jones said. "Regardless of all these fans, you want a good performance. You also want the bragging rights."
For Jones, the Kansas Relays rest between weeks of other meets traveling the country. She uses this time to prepare for the U.S. World Championships in Helsinki.
"I want to win. I want to be the best in the world." Jones said.
Greene didn't even change out of his uniform before he greeted local fans. After his relay team, H.S.I., won the 4x100 meter relay with a time of 39.24, he welcomed the fans with
They hugged him, took pictures and hollered encouraging words to the Kansas City, Kan. native.
Greene said that every time he came back to the University he received tremendous support and that he was glad that his friends could be there.
open arms — literally.
Greene's H.S.I. relay team set the Kansas Relays record in 2000 with a time of 38.45.
Greene thanked his teammates for lightening the burden on him.
Greene's competitiveness is something that teammate Jon Capel said can appeal to track fans everywhere.
"Have you seen this man celebrate?" Capel asked. "One thing I've learned from Maurice that makes him great is his swagger, when comes in there licking his lips and moving his head a little bit, you know he's about to drop something."

Greene placed third in the men's 100-meter dash with a time of 10.15 seconds and ran the anchor leg on the winning 4x100 relay team. Greene's teammate John Capel won the 100 with a time of 10.10. Second place finisher Mark Jelks also ran a 10.15.
"It's just the start of my season," Greene said. "I think the most important thing is to come

out here and give the fans a show."
The men's 4x100 was the final event of Saturday's Gold Zone.
Greene said he wanted his relay team to beat its best time of 38.4, but Saturday's strong winds didn't allow for that.
The winning relay team —
Greene, Capel, Kaaron
Conwright and Leonard Scott
— finished with a time of 39.24.
Greene, who has been working with his HSInternational team coach, said he has been in full training for several weeks.
He said he is where he wants to be at this point in the season.
"He's been hitting us very hard," he said.
Greene said he was confident that once he had time to rest his body he would be in shape to compete. He said the 100, which was the first he has run this season, went as expected.
"You have to get out there and compete," Greene said, "And John (Capel) competed."
Greene and Capel will compete in Martinique next week. Although they are teammates, Greene said losing to Capel this week would be motivation.
"I'm a competitor, I never like to lose," Greene said. "We'll see what happens next time."

the national relay as the fin- day first
Robinson Counts yesterday. The match was delayed because of cool morning temperatures.
The Aggies won the doubles point, winning in two out of three matches.
The Jayhawks (4-16, 3-8 Big 12) lost the doubles point for the seventh consecutive match, resulting in seven straight losses overall.
The losing streak ties the team's longest losing streak of the season.
For Kansas coach Amy Hall-
Holt, the match provided a positiv
sign in doubles competition
"This was our best doubles performance in the past month," Hall-Holt said. "I was pleased with our positive attitude and drive in doubles and I
hope it carries over into the Big 12 Tournament."
With the doubles competition tied at one match, the final match almost landed in the Jayhawks' favor.

Kansas doubles' partners sophomore Brittany Brown and freshman Elizaveta Avedeva led seven games to five, with two match points, but were unable to close the match, losing 9-8.
In singles, the Aggies dominated.
Texas A&M swept all six matches, including Helga Viera's straight set thumping of Avdeeva, 6-1, 6-0.
Avdeeva lost her fifth straight singles match.
Kansas freshman Stephanie Smith leads the team with 14 overall wins, but saw her five-match winning steak end in a three-set loss to Maria Druss, 1-6, 6-4, 0-1 (4).
The Jayhawks will prepare for the upcoming Big 12 Tournament later this week.
The tournament begins Thursday in Austin, Texas.
Wind a factor in inconsistency

WOMEN'S GOLE
The women's golf team finished in ninth place at the Big 12 Conference Championship in Austin, Texas. Shooting a three-day total of 952, Kansas finished ahead of Oklahoma, Colorado and Iowa State.
Oklahoma State barely held on to a one-stroke lead with a score of 900, defeating Texas. Baylor placed third, followed by Missouri and Texas A&M.
The Jayhawks had inconsistent scores. The first day they shot a 311, followed by a 331 on the second. Coach Erin O'Neil blamed high winds for the sudden rise in scores.
"It was very,very windy," she said. "And it's a more diffi cult course when it's windy. It changed directions a lot. They had a hard time with club selection."
Junior Chelsey Pryor said the wind may not have made the difference.
"I think coming from Kansas we were pretty used to it," Pryor said. "I don't think it bothered us as much as other teams. I think I let a couple bad shots get to me the second round. My mental game let me down."
On the third day, Kansas turned its game around and improved by 21 strokes, shooting 310.
"I think they did a good job of coming back today," she said. "It's always a good sign to improve your score by 21 shots."
O'Neil said that defeating Oklahoma and Iowa State was a big accomplishment because both teams are ranked higher. She said she would find out whether the Jayhawks received a regional bid today about 2 p.m.
"They are very excited and hopeful," O'Neil said. "We'll get back late tonight and I'll probably just have them come up to the office at two and let them listen."

changes that have come to the event. But even Ryun sidestepped the issue of whether this was truly the second-largest crowd in Kansas Relays history.
"It was just a great crowd," Ryun said. "It was a tremendous turnout, and I think it represented a lot of hard work and a growing interest."
Not exactly a clear answer as to whether this crowd was as big as it was during his day.
But regardless of the actual numbers, everyone seemed happy with how the event went and seemed ready to commit to the same format next year.
Perhaps most telling as to whether the Gold Zone will return was what Perkins said at the meet. Notorious for bolstering the bottom line, Perkins was reported as having scraped together $100,000 to pay the elite athletes to compete. When he was asked whether the
Kansas Relays were worth the investment, his answer was short and telling.
"Without a doubt," Perkins said.
Regardless of whether the Relays have regained the popularity they once had, the Gold Zone has at least given the Kansas Relays an opportunity to endure for many more years. And as long as Weaver, who said one person had referred to him as the Don King of track and field, is in charge, there will be no shortage of new ideas and changes.
"A woman came up and leaned over my shoulder and said, 'Look up into the stands. Would you ever believe this is a track meet?' Weaver said. "This is year one of the Gold Zone. With more people getting on board, I'm already planning how to blow this year out of the water."
I only hope my face can make it through it.

"Everyone goes in expecting to win." Mims said. "I'm not afraid of anyone on the track."
Although he had the fans' support, Mims enjoys his anonymity among athletes in Lawrence. Mims had friends and family in the crowd, though.
"There's a lot of people here, and a lot of people that love KU," Mims said. "It's not me, it's the uniform that everyone's cheering for."
Mims took the opportunity to show the fans what KU track has to offer.
"They don't get to see you a lot, so to come here and give them a win is really nice and definitely satisfying
Brooklyn Hann also chalked up a victory for Kansas, winning the women's invitational triple jump. Her best jump of 43 feet, 3.75 inches was two inches farther than second-place finisher Vanitta Kimard.
"The fans were great," Hann said. "You want people to know how hard you've been working."
The pressure to win wasn't
overwhelming for Hann.
"It's just a good day to relax and jump far," Hann said. "Hopefully, next week I'll do better."
A far less likely victory was Abby Emsick's in the women's discus. She threw 50 meters in her first attempt, solidifying her spot in the finals. After that, she was on cruise control.
"It's always nice to get a mark that will get you to finals," said Emsick. "It helps you relax."
Emsick's has won at the Relays before, but this is her first victory as a Jayhawk. She won last year as an unattached competitor.
"The Kansas Relays has never really gone that well for me. This is the best I ever done, and the furthest I've ever thrown," Emsick said of her performance at the Relays.

The weekend had a somber ending for a group of seniors who began the club lacrosse team at Kansas.
The team went into the weekend needing a victory on Friday against Southwest Missouri State to clinch a spot in the playoffs, but was at the wrong end of a 7-3 game. The team could have had a slim chance to make the playoffs if it had beaten Illinois yesterday, but also came up short, losing 10-8.
"I've very disappointing," senior midfielder John DiCalogero said. "I was hoping and praying this year, that I would have one more week of playing."

In yesterday's match against Illinois, it was Mallin again who scored the first Kansas goal and was involved with the final goal as he put away a pass from fellow senior attacker Moxley.
Although the team dropped both games, the seniors did not make it easy for the visitors. In the game against Southwest Missouri State senior attacker Jordan Mallin came up with the first goal of the game and assisted freshman midfielder Joe Slattery with the final goal. DIcalogero also got involved as he scored the second goal for the Jayhawks.
"It feels nice personally, but we're all about the team," Mallin said about the three goals and assist he recorded.
"I wish I could have helped my team more to take us to the playoffs," he said.
With the second goal of the game, senior midfielder Ryan Wallace assisted freshman midfielder Mark Rush. Senior midfielder Joe Dratter also got into the mix when he had an unassisted goal in the fourth quarter.
The seniors not only led the team on the field, but off the field as well.

Quick (8-4) was given a no decision after allowing six runs on 10 hits, three walks and six strikeouts. Junior closer Don Czyz (3-3) took the loss after surrendering two runs on two hits in the bottom of the ninth.
"Pitchers go through those peaks and valleys just like hitters do." Price said.
Hargrove (2-0) picked up the victory in game one after throwing three scoreless innings in relief, allowing one hit and striking out two.

the run support he needed, highlighted by a seven-run inning in the fourth. Five Jayhawks had at least one RBI in the inning.
Junior first baseman Jared Schweitzer also picked up a hit in the inning, extending his hitting streak to 14 games.
Senior infielder Travis Dunlap hit the game's only home run as a pinch hit in the eighth.
Junior left fielder Chris Williams was the Red Raiders' best producer in game two, hitting 2-4 with an RBI and a run scored. He could not do enough as the Jayhawks scored first with two runs in the third and never trailed for the rest of the game.
Corley (1-0) picked up his first career victory on Saturday after allowing five runs, three earned, on four hits. He had two strikeouts and walks in his seven innning appearance.
"The intent was trying to take some pressure off the kids that were trying to make us successful," Price said of the pitching change. "Corley emerged and for him to come out and pitch seven innings in his first career start is outstanding."
Junior right-hander Adam Lawford (2-5) was tagged with the loss in game two, after giving up eight runs on eight hits in just 3.1 innings pitched.
Game three was scheduled for 1 p.m. yesterday, but the pouring rain would not allow it. Kansas had the opportunity to pick up its first Big 12 series victory, but the game was canceled and will not be made up.
"That might hurt us when it's all over. We would have rather had the chance to play and lose, but there is nothing we can do about it." Price said.
Kansas will get the opportunity to play tomorrow as it heads to Kansas City, Kan., to face New Mexico State in the Best of the Midwest Tournament.

There was no fairy tale ending for senior Kelly Zapf, junior Rhino Page and coach Mike Fine. The year that Fine said was one of the greatest years for the bowling program ended in disappointment for the three members who will be saying goodbye to the bowling team.
The season ended in the first day of match play at the Intercollegiate Bowling Championships with the men falling in the third round and the women being knocked out in the fourth.
Despite being the No. 1 seed and having bowled the highest score on Thursday, the men's team was only able to win its first match. The lone victory did not come easy, as 16-seed Toledo pushed the match to a seventh and deciding game. In the next two matches, the men fell to Fresno State four games to two and lost to Newman four
"We just couldn't find a rhythm on Friday," Fine said. "We could never get on a roll."

I'm proud with how the girls put up such a fight. They played much better than the final score reflects."

BOWLING CHAMPIONSHIP RESULTS
The women, who were the 12-seed, also won the first match, pushing five-seed Western Illinois to seven games before clinching the match. Morehead State defeated the team four games to two. In the third round, they were able to fend off elimination by sweeping Erie Community College in four straight games. In the fourth round, the women faced Western Illinois again, falling four games to one.
games to one.
The Kansas men's bowling team won last year's Intercollegiate Bowling Championships. This year both the men's and the women's teams made early exits.
"I'm proud with how the girls put up such a fight," Fine said. "They played much better than the final score reflects."

The end of the season ends the Fine era at Kansas. Fine said it was emotional after the teams were knocked out, finishing their seasons.
"It's really weird," junior Kelly Sanders said about this being the last tournament with Fine as coach. "It's disappointing knowing this was coach's last chance of getting a ring here at KU. It just feels strange to look at him and know he's not going to be here next year."
Although the ending was not quite what the bowling team expected, Fine said it was a good year and that they had a lot to be proud about. The feeling was mutual from Zapf who said the girls went beyond what she was looking for.
In individual accolades, the performances of Zapf and Page throughout the season were recognized at an awards banquet April 20. For the second year in a row, both bowlers were named All-Americans. Zapf was named to the second team, while Page received first team honors.
Page, who finished third in voting for collegiate bowler of the year, was also named to the All-Tournament team.
tions, coming in as the 12 seed and finishing in 7th," Zapf said. "I leave here with no regrets and I feel that I got 150 percent from all the girls, so I'm very happy."

KANSAS RELAYS
Relays attract big stars, fans and dollars
BY KELLIE ROBINETT
krobinett@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Kansas Relays meet director Tim Weaver couldn't think of the perfect adjective to describe how he felt about this year's event.
So he used every word that came to mind.
Weaver said the money helped bring in the athletes, but he thinks it was hardly the main factor.
"It was amazing, unbelievable and incredible," he said. "It still hasn't sunk in that 24,000 people showed up. It was such a tremendous experience."
Weaver was excited about the attendance numbers because the University of Kansas spent nearly $100,000 to bring some of the world's best track and field athletes to the Kansas Relays.
That budget was significantly increased from past years, because the University wanted to make the event popular again, he said. In recent years the Kansas Relays has experienced low attendance.
"Our budget has a lot of wrinkles, but we gave our athletes first class treatment all the way around," he said.
"They are elite athletes, but none of them came just for the money. They all wanted to be part of this tradition and experience." he said.
Fans enjoyed watching the athletes, because it was a rare opportunity to see olympians compete, said Logan Henderson, student relays committee member.
The premiere athletes were showcased during the Gold Zone. Saturday from 2 to 5 in
" "
It was amazing, unbelievable and incredible. It still hasn't sunk in that 24,000 people showed up."
Tim Weaver Kansas Relays meet director
the afternoon. Students were given free admission, while adult tickets were $10.
"The main difference in fan support was the big name talent we had this year." Henderson, Houston junior, said. "Their performances and talents were something people wanted to see."
The increased Kansas Relays attendance not only made the event an enjoyable experience, but it also helped the University make up for the money it spent to attract star athletes.
Weaver said concession and ticket revenue could be the highest of all time.
"I won't get those numbers until next week, but I'm sure that they will far surpass anything we've seen in the past," he said. "Twenty-four thousand people drink a lot more Coca-Cola than 12,000."
University officials were impressed with the Kansas Relays' success, and Weaver was even called the track and field equivalent of Don King, the legendary boxing promoter.
"That's something I'll never forget," Weaver said. "When I heard that, all I could do was yell 'only in America.' I was beyond thrilled."

School names new dean
School of education hires dean to uphold school's reputation
BY TY BEAVER
tbeaver@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
The director of the School of Education at Colorado State University was named the 15th dean of education at the University of Kansas yesterday.
Rick Ginsberg will take his position in August after he moves here from Fort
Collins. Colo.
While unable to recall the number who applied for the position, Ed Meyen, professor of education and chairman of the search committee, said the committee was pleased by its efforts.
"We had a very good response and had candidates with strengths, but different strengths." he said.
News of the opening spread early in the semester and ended in visits with three candidates. Meyen said Ginsberg was chosen because of his experiences

and scholarship.
A strong background in policy development applied toward teacher education was another strong point, and an ability to address the
diversity of the school also made Ginsberg an attractive choice, Meyen said.
"We're not asking him to come and fix things, but to provide us leadership into the future." he said.
Ginsberg was attracted to the position by the school's national ranking and the quality of students and faculty. Lawrence's reputation as a good place to raise a family also played into his decision.
"My wife and I thought we had another good career move in us, and this is an ideal institution." he said.
The new dean even learned about the recruiting process for educators when he toured the University, and plans to use that
"We're not
asking him to come and fix things, but to provide us leadership into the future."

knowledge during his tenure.
Because the school is known
for its prominence, Ginsberg says he will focus on getting to know the faculty and students of the school, but maintaining research productivity and teaching standards are his primary goal.
The former dean of education, Angela Lumpkin, resigned in October. Fred Rodriguez, associate dean and associate professor of education, was named interim dean.
Rodriguez did not apply to keep the position.

"To me, Rwanda was really an education," Anderson Cooper said last night as he spoke to a crowd at the Kansas Union Ballroom. Cooper, who anchors CNN's "Anderson Cooper 360," covers the genocide in Rwanda. Cooper has also covered the Columbia Space Shuttle explosion and the D.C.-area snipter story.

Sometimes you need a little help to get the job done.
For Anderson Cooper, CNN anchorman, that meant paying AK-47 wielding 15-year-olds for protection while covering famine in Somalia.
That tale, along with dodging bullets in South Africa and stealth maneuvering from a Baghdad airport to his hotel are just some of the reporting experiences Cooper told last night to an audience at the Kansas Ballroom in the Kansas Union.
The Iraqi tale was a surprise due to the images of victory after the war, said Angela Carlon, Shawnee junior.
"I was surprised that we didn't have complete control," Carlon said.
All of Cooper's stories weren't about guns and bullets.
He met a Sri Lankan boy who had thrown stones into the sea because the tsunami took away his brothers, sisters and friends.
It's an image that stays with you, Cooper said. Cooper is very inspiring, Hannah Love, Dodge City freshman, said.
He couldn't express his pain in words.
Besides answering questions about his travels, he fielded questions from the audience that ranged from his prematurely gray hair to the corporate influence on media.
"He has a great outlook," Love said. "I was really impressed by the fact that he cries about his news stories."

PROFILE
Robert J. Dole
Humble beginnings shape American icon
BY Jason Shaad
lshaad@kansan.com
"For somebody from Russell, it was a big change," Dole said in a phone interview in early April. "That was the farthest east I had ever been before."
He never had enough time for school, what with sports, his fraternity and a college social life. Not to mention the two jobs he was busy working to nav for it all.
He was a sports buff, played football and track,
but basketball was his favorite. He was a huge fan of legendary KU basketball coach Forrest "Phog"
Allen and tried out for his team two years in a row. Never made varsity, though.
He never had enough cash or clean clothes and he wrote home often to ask for more of both.
Dole still remembers the classes he took, the parties he went to and the girls he dated. He
Back in 1941, the Russell native decided the University was his best choice for a successful future. He borrowed $300 from a local banker to pay for tuition and snagged a ride to Lawrence.
As a kid from a small town in western Kansas, Robert Joseph Dole came to the University of Kansas in the fall of 1941. He wanted to become an athlete and a doctor.
Today, as a political leader and elder statesman, Dole, 81, is back at the University and will speak at the Robert J. Dole Institute of Politics. He will talk about his new book, "One Soldier's Story," a memoir about his life, including his two-year stint at the University before he joined the Army to fight in World War II.
He remembers how big of a change it was to come to a campus with as many students as the population of his home town, about 4,000.
But what Dole remembers most about his two years here is how positive of an impression the University had on his life.
"You appreciate it more as you get older and look back at the good times and the bad times and the little things." Dole said. "KU is one of the bright spots that I remember."
remembers the variety of jobs he worked to put himself through college too.
Athletic enthusiast
If it wasn't for KU basketball, Dole never may have come to the University in the first place.
In Russell, Wildcat purple covered one side of the drugstore where Dole worked and crimson and blue covered the other.
"You were either KU or K-State, and loyalties were very fierce," said Andy Galyardt, 73, a Russell native who grew up with Dole and lived three houses away from him. Dole had always loved basketball more than any other sport. That meant he was a lavihawk fan.
During his freshman year Dole tried out for football, basketball and track.
But it wasn't until coach Allen walked into the Russell drugstore and told him to try out at KU that Dole set his heart on the University.
"I was in high-cotton, as they say in the South, when Phog Allen walked in and told me to come to KU." Dole said.
Allen had heard about Dole through his son Milton, who played amateur league basketball in Russell.

DOLE SPEECH TODAY
DOLE SPEECH TODAY
Former Senator Bob Dole will speak today for the second annual Dole Lecture at the Robert J. Dole Institute of Politics.
Dole will discuss his new book, "One Soldier's Story," which tells the story of his service in Italy during World War II, the wounds he sustained there and his eventual recovery before entering politics.
The epilogue of the book also recounts the similarities between Dole's war injuries and the serious injury he sustained earlier this year. In January Dole fell and spent 40 days at Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington, D.C. for treatment of internal bleeding.
Today is the first time Dole will address the public inside the institute, which holds his personal and political papers, Bill Lacy, Institute director, said.
Dole will sign copies of his book before and after the event, which will be followed by an outdoor picnic with free hot dogs, beverages and music.
The lecture begins at 4 p.m. in the Institute, located west of the Lied Center on West Campus.
tickets are free and can be obtained at the Dole Institute or by calling 840-4900.

Visually impaired students often touched the angel statues as they walked into the Audio-Reader Sensory Garden.
Contributed Photos
The two statues were stolen last week from the University of Kansas Audio-Reader sensory garden.
Statues were stolen from outside of Audio Reader recently. The statues were purchased with a donation from the Shawnee Mission Garden Club.
The statues were last seen by a garden employee April 16, Frederick said.
Employees noticed the missing stat-
The statues were anchored to each side of the wooden archway that leads into the garden.
The KU Public Safety Office is investigating the crime, Capt. Schuyler Bailey said.
The two statues were donated by Frederick and the Shawnee Mission Garden Club.
Each statue cost between only $50 and $100, but the sentimental value is priceless, Frederick said.
"We just want the statues back," Frederick said. "It makes me sad given the nature of our
services."
Because the garden is by apartments, she suspected students took the statues. Frederick said the thief was probably unaware that the garden was for the visually impaired.
"I hate to think a KU student took them, but it's something I can see them doing as a prank," she said.
Frederick said frequent visitors to the garden would notice the missing statues. More than 300 people visit the garden between May and September, she said. The visitors often include groups from retirement centers and organized guided tours for visually impaired groups.
The garden, located downhill from Audio Reader, 1120 W. 11th St., is an outdoor garden that is completely accessible to the visually impaired.

The 107 business and finance students are part of a group of 180 students who will attend meetings at Berkshire Hathaway. Buffett is chairman and CEO of the company, which owns media-friendly businesses such as Geico and Fruit of the Loom.

and Hirschey. Students will prepare questions that Buffett has not seen in advance.
The meeting will take place at the company's headquarters in Omaha, Neb.
"This is an opportunity to share questions and answers with the world's best investor," Hirschey said.
Investment strategies and understanding the psychology of business
are areas Buffett excels in, said Leo Khavet. Overland Park senior.
"I think the whole point he teaches is that stocks go up and down, but they have real economic value," Khayet said. "You need to evaluate the basics, and that's an important lesson for anyone."
Khayet said he had not finalized his questions, but that they would focus on particular investment and business strategies Buffett discussed in one of his biographies.
Buffett is estimated to be worth more than $44 billion, according to Forbes.com. He took control of Berkshire Hathaway in 1977, and has grown the company 14 percent per year since 1989.
A single share of Berkshire Hathaway stock costs approximately $47,000.

Saudi Arabia to up oil production
BY DEB REICHMANN THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CRAWFORD, Texas — President Bush prodded Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince Abdullah yesterday to help curb skyrocketing oil prices, and the White House expressed hope that the kingdom's plans would ease U.S. gasoline prices that have shot above $2.20 a gallon.
"A high oil price will damage markets and he knows that," Bush said of Abdullah, the de facto leader of the desert kingdom.
Asked whether pump prices would drop, Bush said that would depend on supply and demand.
"One thing is for certain: The price of crude is driving the price of gasoline." Bush said. "The price of crude is up because not only is our economy growing, but economies such as India and China's economies are growing."
Saudi Arabia has outlined a plan to increase production capacity to 12.5 million barrels a day by 2009 from the current 11 million limit. Saudi Arabia now pumps about 9.5 million barrels daily. If necessary, Saudi Arabia says it
"The problem in the oil market now is a perception that there is inadequate capacity." Hadley said.
On another economic issue, the United States and Saudi Arabia are on the verge of a bilateral trade agreement that would allow the Gulf nation to join the World Trade Organization, "god willing by the end of the year," said Abdullah's foreign affairs adviser, Adel Al-Jubeir, told reporters.
will eventually develop a capacity of 15 million barrels a day.
Other pressing issues, including terrorism, prospects for peace between the Israelis and Palestinians, Syria's future role in Lebanon and democratic change in the Middle East filled the leaders' meeting and discussion over lunch. They agreed to set up a high-level committee, led by Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and the Saudi foreign minister, to deal with strategic issues.
National Security Adviser Stephen Hadley said the plan could be seen as positive news by financial markets.
Spreading democracy is a second-term goal that could affect Bush's legacy, yet high gas prices are a drag
on his popularity right now.
A recent Associated Press-AOL poll found the public giving the president low marks for his handling of energy problems, with 62 percent saying they disapproved. Earlier in April, another AP survey found public dissatisfaction growing more generally, with Bush's job approval rating at 44 percent.
Al-Jueiré said Saudi Arabia was producing all the oil that its customers were requesting. He said the price was being driven up by a shortage of capacity.
"What we have done is explain to the U.S. what our production capabilities are," he told reporters about the meeting. "We also explained to the U.S. — and we have for months — what our plans are for adding to that capacity in the future years."
Hadley said the leaders talked about Saudi Arabia's commitment to increased production.
"The Saudis have some questions about refinery capability on our side and what they can do on their side with respect to refinery capacity," he said. "I think there's more discussion that needs to be done on that issue."

GTAs not satisfied with health insurance
HEALTH
AUGUSTA HARRIS
BY TY BEAVER
tbeaver@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
The union for graduate teaching assistants at the University of Kansas wants another option for health insurance available to students.
Jennifer Foster, a religious studies graduate teaching assistant, is unhappy with the University of Kansas' insurance provider. The contract with MEGA, the provider chosen by the state for the University, expires in October. Negotiations for insurance might be looked at by the GTA coalition, Foster said.
Health benefits are one of the biggest concerns among GTAs, said Jennifer Foster, Leawood graduate student and member of the union. Improving those benefits has proved to be a challenge.
The policy is available to all students, but graduate students use it the most, and GTAs aren't satisfied with the quality of coverage the policy provides. Foster said.
"We don't pay much for insurance, but it sucks," she said.
Because the group of students who use the policy is so small, few insurance companies choose to bid for the right to insure students.
All Regents universities offer a health insurance plan through the MEGA Life and Health Insurance Company. The company was the only insurance provider to bid on a policy for students at the Regents universities, said Gavin Young, media relations director for the state of Kansas.
"From our perspective, this is a very narrowly defined market and there are only a handful of vendors available to bid," he said.
GTAs aren't satisfied with the coverage. however.
Preventive care, such as yearly physicals, are not provided for under the policy. The only preventive care paid for under the policy is one yearly Pap smear for women.
There are students, though,
that need yearly physicals due to
chronic illness or a family history.
Foster said.
After the deductible, the company will pay about 80 percent of the charges, with a cap of $100,000, depending on the amount of coverage that is purchased.
Emergency coverage is not acceptable either, she said.
Young said there were complaints about the company's speed at filing claims and not covering certain services.
There is a $2,000 deductible on emergency costs before the company will pay.
Though the structure of the company's policy determines what services are covered, the company has acknowledged
problems with processing claims and is working toward improvement, he said.
"It should be pointed out that complaints about insurance are not unexpected." Young said.
Contract negotiations for GTAs are being planned for October, Foster said. One proposal is to ask the University if students can approach insurance companies with a plan developed by students to provide more thorough coverage, even if it means higher premiums.

He had a knack for track and could run the indoor quarter mile in 54 seconds, only two seconds slower than the fastest indoor time that year at the University.
He couldn't quite make the varsity football or basketball teams, though.
"He wasn't a great player," said Max Falkenstein, who has covered Jayhawk basketball since the 1950s and befriended Dole when he was a Congressman. "He was a hard worker. He might compare to a Christian Moody kind of guy, but Bob probably wasn't as good."
"I mean those varsity boys are really tough." Dole wrote home to his parents before his first day of college. "I spent half my time picking myself up. I have a black eye too as a result of the scrimmage."
In football Dole made the freshman squad, which put him up against the varsity guys.
Although he never became one of those varsity boys, Dole didn't have to play in their games to celebrate the victories.
After the University defeated Kansas State 20-16 in football that year, "around 3,000 students paraded to the chancellor's house asking him to dis

Jayhawk Jokester
While being recruited by Kappa Sigma fraternity, he was given a tour of the house. Left alone in some of the members' room, Dole began "short-sheeting" all the beds. He would strip the sheets and remake the bed so that whoever crawled in that night would only be able to get in up to their knees.
Once Dole joined the fraternity he got even bolder.
He remembers the wooden paddles that fraternity members carried around while he was a pledge.
"Come on. Give me your best shot," Dole wrote.
One day Dole turned to one of the fraternity members and told him that he had heard enough about the paddles. He wanted to find out how bad it was going to be, Dole wrote in his book.
He received a solid swing from the obliging member.
"My rear end stung like it was on fire," he wrote. "But I wasn't going to give him the pleasure of knowing it hurt."
After that, Dole said, he

rarely got paddled again.
Once, he recruited a group of friends to haul a fraternity member's Harley Davidson up three flights of stairs to a third-floor bedroom. When the guy found out, Dole and his buddies refused to help move it back down.
"I probably did a bit of everything." Dole said. "We were a little gang of pledges."
Pedagogical priorities
"I've been sitting here for an hour trying to write a theme for Rhetoric but I just can't get started."
— Bob Dole, in a letter to his parents on May 5, 1942.
Dole was the first person in his family to go to college. During the Dust Bowl and the Depression, he decided he wanted to be a doctor. Doctors didn't have to worry about dust and wind and money.
But academics were never Dole's strong suit in college. Not because he didn't care, but because he was so busy with jobs and sports and farewell parties for war-bound buddies.
"I was a below-average student," Dole said. "Academics weren't a high priority. I just didn't apply myself."
For his first semester he
enrolled in five courses; Five hours of introduction to economics, five hours of elementary german, two hours of rhetoric, and varsity athletics and intermediate social dancing.
social earnings He earned a C in German and a B in Rhetoric. He received his lowest grade, a D, in Economics, a subject he would later specialize in as Chairman of the Senate Finance Committee.
By winter break the following year, Dole's academics hadn't improved.
"Our vacation doesn't start until next Wednesday, but 3 days of missing classes wouldn't hurt my grades any because [they're] not too good anyway. I have 3 hours of B, 5 hours of C and 5 hours of D. I'm going to talk to the Dean tomorrow and ask him if it would be all right to go home 3 days early," Dole wrote in December 1942.
Near the end of his sophomore year, Dole met with the dean again.
Laurence Woodruff, dean of students, called Dole to his office for a conference.
"He called me in and said, 'Bob, you're not doing too well academically,'" Dole recalled. "He thought it was a good idea that I enlist."
Time well spent Eight decades of accomplishments

Making Ends Meet
"I started waiting tables yesterday, it's kind of hard at first but I guess it will become easier as we get onto it. I guess Bud and I have to start our milk job tomorrow, which I don't like. We never get to bed before 12:00 and getting up at 5:00 is not very easy."
— Bob Dole, in a letter to his parents on the day before school started in 1941
Getting that money was the toughest part of his college career. Dole said.
"It got to the point where you couldn't physically do it and be sharp the rest of the day. My grades reflected that."
Even with two jobs, Dole was almost always strapped for cash.
He woke up at 5 a.m. and delivered milk in Lawrence for a few bucks a day. During the week he waited tables at Kappa Sigma for $12.50 a month plus all the food he could eat.
In all he earned about $50 a month.

ways to make extra money.
"I asked our treasurer about putting a slot machine on the second floor and he thought it would be a swell idea. He believes I could make around $5 a week. If I could do this I could
quit one of my jobs and have more time for study."
Right before Thanksgiving during his freshman year he came up with an idea and wrote home.
Although a slot machine was technically illegal, "it seemed every store in Russell had one tucked in a corner somewhere," Dole wrote in his book. "My dad even had a slot machine at the egg-and-cream station . . ."
But for reasons he cannot remember today, the idea flopped.
"I never did get around to installing a slot machine in the frat house — it just didn't happen," Dole said in the book.
Whenever he was low on cash, Dole wrote home. He never asked for money he didn't need. But Dole, who was 6 feet 2 inches tall and about 190 pounds, rarely hesitated to ask for extra food.
"Sometime within the next month or two, when you're not so busy, send me some cookies or something." Dole wrote to his mother in the fall of 1941.
It was a request his younger sister, Norma Jean Steele, was very familiar with.
"We had to borrow food [ration] stamps to get enough sugar for the cookies he liked," she said. "His fraternity house got used to getting his cookies."
"I would like to start having more dates. It really helps one get acquainted."
Lady's man
- Bob Dole, in a letter to his parents on May 5, 1942
In a letter to his younger sister his freshman year, he wrote, "I've had 5 dates. One was with a twin and she's plenty cute - I think!"
Dole liked the ladies.
Despite his dark wavy hair and muscular frame, Dole got uneasy around an entire sorority
"It made me sort of nervous eating with 50 girls, and I was scared that I would do something wrong concerning table
dark-haired campus beauty queen" from Hutchinson, according to Dole's book. He dated her for almost his entire sophomore year.
After flowers and dates, things got serious when Grace's parents consented to let Dole "pin" her with his fraternity pin – a first step before actually getting engaged.
But once Dole left the University for the Army, Grace returned it.
Although the breakup sad-dened him, Dole hadn't planned

manners, but I didn't," Dole wrote in a letter home.
One time he had so many dates that he couldn't return to Russell for a weekend. Dole wrote his mother to explain.
"I had 2 dates with Virginia McGill last week. She's really a fine girl. . . I have 2 dates with Gloria Brinkman, a blonde, this week-end so if I come home I'll have to break them."
"Grace's mother was in Lawrence Friday. 7. Someone had told her Grace and I
were married and it sorta worried her. I haven't completely lost my mind and I don't intend to for a year or two."
— Bob Dole, letter to his parents in April 1943, about a month before the end of his sophomore year.
"I suppose you, like everyone else, are huddled around the radio listening to war developments in the battle with Japan. . . . There

are 3 or 4 boys who are considering enlisting this week in the Army Air Corps. It might be a good thing for me to do; at least it would be better than spending your money at school?"
Bob Dole, in a letter to his parents after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor in December 1941.
After Pearl Harbor, things changed for Dole. More and more of his friends and classmates were enlisting in the military. He knew he would too. The question was when.
He stayed at the University for another year and a half until the end of his sophomore year.
But as his academic focus wavered, Dole decided it would be better to enlist than wait to be drafted. He joined the Army Reserve Corps at the age of 19.
Soon Private Dole was off to Fort Leavenworth for Army basic training, and then to Camp Barkley, Texas; Brooklyn, New York; Camp Polk, Louisiana; and Fort Benning, Georgia. From there he headed to Europe with the Allied Forces and fought the Germans in April 1945 on a wartorn hill in northern Italy.
After that, things would never be the same.

Funding helps pass gay marriage ban
TOPEKA — Supporters of a measure banning gay marriage outspent opponents by more than 2-to-1 in a successful effort to add the proposal to the Kansas Constitution, campaign finance records show.
Those records showed eight groups favoring the amendment spent a total of nearly $182,000, while two groups and an individual opposing the measure spent almost $81,000.
Groups and individuals were required to file reports last week with the secretary of state's office, listing contributors and their expenditures.
The proposed amendment not only bans gay marriage but declares that only unions of one man and one woman are entitled to the "rights or incidents" or marriage. The provision prevents the state from recognizing civil unions or domestic partnerships for same-sex couples.
Seventy percent of the voters supported the amendment in an April 5 election.

71 dead, cause of crash still unknown
JAPANESE TRAIN WRECK
BY MARI YAMAGUCHI THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
AMAGASAKI, Japan — The death toll jumped to 71 yesterday as crews pulled more victims from the wreckage of Japan's deadliest rail crash in decades. Investigators focused on whether excessive speed or the driver's inexperience caused the train to derail and slam into a building.
The seven-car commuter train carrying 580 passengers left the rails Sunday near Amagasaki, a suburb of Osaka about 250 miles west of Tokyo. It hit an automobile and then a nine-story apartment complex. More than 440 people were injured.
Rescuers working under floodlights pulled out a conscious but seriously injured 46-year-old woman then reached a 19-year-old man passenger, also in serious condition.
Two of the five derailed cars were shoved inside and flattened against the wall of the building's first-floor parking garage.
Distraught relatives rushed to hospitals looking for loved ones who might have been injured or killed in the crash. They struggled to comprehend their loss.
But most of the work was grim as crews pulled 14 more bodies from the twisted rail carriages, pushing the death toll from 57 to 71.
"I only saw him the night before," said Hiroko Kuki, whose son died in the crash. "I

wish he were alive somewhere
I wish it were only a nightmare."
Takamichi Hayashi said his elder brother, 19-year-old Hiroki, might have been among those still in the wreck. He said Hiroki had called their mother twice on a mobile phone from inside one of the train cars hours after the crash but remained unaccounted for.
Workers of Aircraft and Railway Accidents Investigation Commission, or ARAIC inspect a train accident site in front of a derailed commuter train in Amagasaki, in western Japan yesterday. The packed commuter train jumped the tracks Sunday and hurtled into an apartment complex, killing at least 73 people and injuring more than 440 others in the deadliest Japanese rail accident in four decades.
"He told my mother: 'I'm in pain. I'm not going to make it,'" Havashi said.
Officials said no cause had been ruled out but added that investigators suspected speed and the driver's less than a year on the job.
The driver — identified as Ryujiro Takami, 23 — was unaccounted for.
He got his train operator's license last May. A month later, he overshot a station and was issued a warning, railway officials and police said. Passengers said he also stopped too far past a station platform Sunday just before the crash.
Tsunemi Murakami, safety director for train operator West Japan Railway Co., said it had not been determined how fast the train was traveling.
A surviving crew member told police he "felt the train was going faster than usual," public broadcaster NHK said.
That echoed comments from passengers who speculated the driver might have been speeding to make up for time lost when he overshot the previous station by 25 feet and had to
back up. The train was nearly two minutes behind schedule media reports said.
The crash occurred on a curve with a speed limit of 43 mph. Murakami estimated the train would have had to be traveling at 82 mph to have jumped the track purely because of excessive speed.
Some stretches of track in Japan have safety systems designed to stop trains at any
sign of trouble without requiring drivers to take emergency action. But transport ministry officials said the automatic braking system along the stretch of track where the train crashed is among the oldest in Japan and can't halt trains traveling at high speeds.
Outside experts predicted investigators would find a combination of factors to blame.
dents in Japan in which a train has flipped just because it was going too fast. There might have been several conditions at work
— speed, winds, poor train maintenance or aging rails," Kazuhiko Nagase, a train expert who is a professor at the Kanazawa Institute of Technology said.
"For the train to flip, it had to be traveling at an extremely high speed," Nagase said.

Teenage girls lose weight on steroids
BY LINDA A. JOHNSON THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
TRENTON, N.J. — An alarming number of American girls, some as young as 9, are using bodybuilding steroids — not necessarily to get an edge on the playing field, but to get the toned, sculpted look of models and movie stars, experts say.
Girls are taking the same dangerous testosterone pills, shots and creams that have created a scandal in major league baseball and other sports. Often, these are the same girls who have eating disorders, according to some research.
"There's been a substantial increase for girls during the 1990s, and it's at an all-time
high right now." said Charles Yesalis, a professor of health and human development at Pennsylvania State University.
Lloyd Johnston, a University of Michigan professor who heads an annual government-sponsored survey on risky behavior by young people, said:
Overall, up to about 5 percent of high school girls and 7 percent of middle-school girls admit trying anabolic steroids at least once, with use of rising steadily since 1991, various government and university studies have shown.
Researchers say that most girls are using steroids to get bigger and stronger on the playing field, and they attribute some of the increase in steroid
use to girls' rising participation in sports. But plenty of other girls are using steroids to give themselves a slightly muscular look, they say.
"With young women, you see them using it more as a weight control and body fat reduction method," said Jeff Hoerger, who runs the staff counseling program at Rutgers University in New Jersey.
In the past couple of years, he has helped two girls using steroids — one an 11th-grader with "an average figure" whose swimmer friend suggested steroids to help with weight loss.
"She was just looking for quick results." Hoerger said.
The sports medicine division at the Oregon Health and
Science University found that two-thirds of Oregon high school girls who admitted using steroids were not athletes and that girls who were considering taking steroids had tried other, risky ways to get thin.
"They were more likely to have eating disorders and to abuse diuretics, amphetamines and laxatives," said Dr. Linn Goldberg, head of the division.
In teenage girls, the side effects from taking male sex hormones can include severe acne, smaller breasts, deeper voice, irregular periods, excess facial and body hair, depression, paranoia and the fits of anger dubbed "roid rage." Steroids also carry higher risks of heart attack, stroke and some forms of cancer.

Finding a lot of angles to a story is something that Cooper is good at, Paul Cranagle, Lincoln, Kan., junior, said, especially in his coverage of the Iraq war.
"He did a story about families back home," Crangle said. "There was a story about people who lost their jobs when they came back."
Cooper addressed balancing stories that held the public interest and ones that were under the radar.
His obligation is to find a way to tell those stories in a compelling manner, he said.
"When we fail is when we can't figure out how to tell a compelling story that may not be on its face compelling," he said.

THE B-SIDE
Jews must be self-critical in Middle East controversy
I am a Zionist. I was named for a great-grandfather who lost his entire family in the Holocaust, and so I believe strongly in the importance of a safe place for Jews to gather in times of trouble. Israel is that place, but only barely.
SAM HOPKINS shopkins@kansan.com
Bus bombings and compulsory military service have sunk
in as unwelcome facts of life for many native-born Israelis and immigrants alike. The Zionist vision of aliyah, meaning "ascent," is often inverted to yeridah — "descent" — the word used to describe Jewish migration away from Israel.
Yeridah can be explained easily: the Jewish dream has long been to live in peace, with religious and cultural freedom. Personally, I feel safe and free in the United States as well as in Israel, but many Israelis are frustrated
Modern Israel has been at war since its birth in 1948, albeit with different combatants and at different levels of intensity. The Star — literally "shield" — of David graces Israel's national flag, but that age-old Jewish symbol has covered far too many coffins for true comfort.
by so many unfulfilled promises of peace.
We Jews have historically been victimized for our distinctness.
The desire to transform our fate has sometimes introduced a paradox — even when inflicting harm, we hold ourselves as victims. It is extremely difficult for people whose only strength
An Arab friend recently asked me about a map he had seen in anti-Israeli propaganda that is common in the Middle East. The map shows "Greater Israel," a purported Zionist plot to conquer all the land that was once a part of Ancient Israel. I have seen those maps before and sighed with disappointment as I beheld them.
over two millennia has been education to imagine themselves as bullies.
I sighed because Greater Israel was once the dream of a right-wing minority that included Likud Party founder Menachem Begin. The idea
was foolish but tempting to many Jews who were sick of being kept in small neighborhoods and villages that made easy targets for anti-Jewish mobs. They thought territorial expansion might bring quiet.
Here's the kicker, though:
The same Menachem Begin
who railed against the Arabs was the first Israeli leader to forge a peace treaty with an Arab country. From 1979 to 1981, Jewish settlements in the Sinai Peninsula were destroyed by the Israeli government that had chartered them, and the land was returned to Egypt, from whom it had been conquered in 1967.
We Jews are astute commentators when we have the gift of outside perspective.In our conflicts we must maintain that sense, avoid recourse to arms whenever possible and be more harshly critical of ourselves than anyone else could ever be.
The desire to achieve security must be coupled with our own resilient good will. The current
military occupation of the West Bank and Gaza Strip should be part of this process: A big dream — more land and security — has been tempered by a bloody reality that is swallowing the integrity of key Jewish and Zionist principles of justice and self-determination.
Some Jews and Arabs believe that God commands them to kill the other. The Holy Land itself is charged with history and bitterness. But, like any pre-school teacher will tell you, "He hit me first" is not a valid argument forever. Eventually, someone has to grow up so that the fighting can stop.
A country of Jewish character should be a land of justice for all nations, whose strength and safety are rooted in sympathy cultivated during a long history of victimhood.

When I read this news, I thought, "Wow, this column practically writes itself.
How can anyone prefer children to go hungry than have foster parents? How can anyone prefer that children sleep in cold alleys at night than in heated bedrooms?"
I laughed to myself and thought, "Do I really even need to write this column?"
But you see, there are people out there with a disease. It's a social disease called homophobia,
disease. It's a social disease and unfortunately, it exists in many different, difficult-to-discern degrees.
Any irrational fear, any unfair perception or prejudice, even if never acted upon toward another human being because of an aspect of their lifestyle they cannot control is discrimination.
And this discrimination is referred to as homophobia when it is directed at someone based on their sexual preference.
It is essentially a slap in the face to a group of people who exist in your culture whether you want them to or not.
Many of you may have noticed that there is always
an excuse for discrimination that makes people feel better about it, such as religion for instance.
"Oh yeah, there is this book written two thousand years ago that says your lifestyle is unnatural and so you can't get married, openly serve in the military or provide homes to needy children."
ual acts in front of the child?
Or maybe you like scientific excuses for discrimination?
Nothing difficult in history was ever accomplished by recoiling in fear. And yes, kids will get teased for having two dads or two moms. But, I'd rather have kids getting teased than turning to drug dealing or prostitution because the government had a problem with their foster parents' sexuality.
I live my life according to certain aspects of this book when it benefits me, and although allowing you to have these unalienable rights could never possibly affect my life, I feel the need to promote hateful discrimination because God will be like totally pissed off at me if don't."
raise a child, and when I hear this, I can't help but wonder: Just what are they implying here?
"Oh yeah, because of certain evolution-induced rules about how to conceive a baby — i.e. man and a woman only — it's only natural that you shouldn't be allowed to engage in an institution created by man — marriage — nor can you defend our country as well as a person who likes the opposite member of their sex, nor can you raise a child without it turning out all totally messed up."
But, many people reading this column would say that it crosses the line when they want to
But, I know most of our readers don't feel this way. They say they don't mind homosexuality. They don't care what the hell people want to do in the privacy of their own homes.
Yeah, that makes perfect sense to me.
Do they think the parents are going to try and turn the child into a homosexual, because this would be such a cataclysmic tragedy? Do they think they will engage in sex-
"No, of course not!" the homophobes respond. "We're just afraid that society isn't ready for a child raised in this kind of environment. They'll get teased at school, they'll have a hard time growing up."
Oh, OK. I never thought of this. If a problem is too difficult to tackle, we'd better just leave things the way they are.
You know, lots of people said they had nothing against black people, but that racial school integration would just be too hard. They said, "Oh the black people will get teased at school. They'll have a hard time growing up."
foster parents' sexuality.
Well, we need to wake up and realize the problem isn't going to be solved if we shy away from it. Nothing difficult in history was ever accomplished by recoiling in fear. And yes, kids will get teased for having two dads or two moms.
But, I'd rather have kids getting teased than turning to drug dealing or prostitution because the government had a problem with their
And the sad truth is, most people don't want these kids. Most people don't want to waste their time. They've been through hard times, they've been passed up for adoption, and our government — in all of its compassionate conservatism glory — sure doesn't want to fund programs that give out "handouts" to take care of them.
But I'll tell you where these kids end up when there is no one else to take care of them. They end up with pimps working the streets. They end up with gangs selling drugs.
But for some people who distort religion and science to promote hateful, discriminating legislation, they'd rather have kids turning tricks or selling dope than worry about "a poor kid being raised by faas."
But, you know, I can write columns in The University Daily Kansan, and politicians can try to pass legislation, and kids can try to hand out those little bibles on Wescoe Beach that we all leave in whatever class we have next, but think hard about who this law really hurts.
Not me, not the representatives, not the foster parents, not the church member; this hurts the children. So think about the 6,000 Texas children who would be displaced by this law.
And let's make sure it's never 6,000 Kansas kids.

PROFILE
Musician's passion leads to language study
BY DANI LITT
dlitt@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITE
A University of Kansas student has been selected for an internship in Amherst, Mass., to study Yiddish, the language of most Jews in Eastern and Central Europe before World War II.
Josh Parshall, Columbia, Mo., junior, said it was his passion for music that led him to his interest in Yiddish. Parshall has played concerts throughout Missouri and Kansas, including the Jazzhaus, 926 1/2 Massachusetts St., but he hasn't played the types of music the majority of college students listen to on an everyday basis. He played his trumpet as part of a Klezmer band called The People's Republic of Klezmerica.
Klezmer is Jewish folk music that originated in Eastern Europe as dance music for weddings. It is usually played at Jewish celebratory events, such as weddings and bar and bat mitzvahs.
Traditional Klezmer music is instrumental, but more recently it has gone through a revival and is melting with other types of music such as rock, punk, ska, R&B and pop, Parshall said.
Other instruments in Klezmer music, specifically Parshall's old band, are the accordion, flute, violin, clarinet, bass and percussion.
Parshall is integrating his lifelong passion for music with a desire to bring more Yiddish culture to the University of Kansas as he prepares for an eight-week internship at the University of Massachusetts.
The program will give him an opportunity to study Yiddish language, literature and culture in the morning and work at the

book center in the afternoon.
Parshall said that he might play Yiddish music but that he didn't know how to speak Yiddish. He said he hoped to learn Yiddish through his internship this summer.
Parshall was recently chosen as one of 12 people out of 60 applicants for an internship at the National Yidishd Book Center in Amherst, Mass. The book center is a library and distribution center for Yidishd books.
The American Studies major said he wasn't skilled with foreign languages but hoped to learn enough to recognize Yiddish words on records.
"I'll probably be a huge failure," he said. "I never wanted to learn a language before, but I think I'll be more motivated to learn Yiddish in this atmosphere."
He said it was useful to have a command of the language surrounding Klezmur music.
He will receive six hours of credit and a $2,800 living stipend for his time spent in Massachusetts.
Parshall's interest in music and Yiddish culture began when he was young, said his father, Tim Parshall.
He said Parshall had been fascinated with lyrics since he was four years old.
"I can remember him asking me about the lyrics of songs on the radio," Tim said.
Parshall's interest grew as he got older. In middle school, he became fascinated with music and culture partly because of an English teacher who would use music to inspire his students to write.
The same teacher gave Parshall his first taste of Klezmer music as a gift for his bar mitzvah. He has continued his study of music and culture through learning about and playing Klezmer music.
He said that he would like the internship to open doors for him to meet new people and make connections for the future and that he wanted to research Klezmer and its relationship to Jewish-American culture.
The development of Klezmer during the past 30 years says a lot about Jewish-American culture, he said.
"There is a segment of the Jewish-American population that isn't satisfied with the current level of assimilation," he said. "They don't want to look at Israel as the primary source of Jewish culture."
bringing back what he learns could help the University include Yiddish studies in the Jewish Studies minor, he said.
"It has to do with saving some of Yiddish language and culture, which has been overlooked since the 1950s," he said.
Parshall said he wanted to have some sort of academic career that included studies in music and culture.
"I'm not good enough to be a professional musician," he said. "But I've hopefully found a way that I can keep studying music."

GOP social issues fail in Missouri
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. — When Republicans won the governor's office and made gains in the House and Senate last fall, social conservatives were hoping their issues would thrive at the Missouri Capitol.
for the results.
But there are just three weeks left in the legislative session. And while fiscally conservative ideas have been solidly embraced, some social ones, from banning a kind of stem cell research to regulating the adult entertainment industry, are faltering. Lawmakers and observers offer various reason
Republicans entered the session with a pro-business agenda as their priority, and they have accomplished many of those goals, including passing legislation limiting injury lawsuits and making it tougher for some injured people to receive workers' compensation.
Republicans had pushed for those measures for years, only to see them fail in the face of a Democratic governor.
But with the exception of anti-abortion legislation, things have not gone as smoothly on the social side of the conservatives' wish list. (Missouri's Legislature has been strongly anti-abortion, across party lines, for years, and continues to propose further restrictions on the procedure).
Senate President Pro Tem Michael Gibbons said Republican leaders simply are taking time to ensure they act in Missouri's best interests.
Among the ideas struggling for approval is a proposal by Sen. Matt Bartle to ban a type of stem cell research known as therapeutic cloning. Supporters say the research could lead to cures for various diseases or spinal cord injuries, but opponents say the procedure destroys human life. The Senate did not even debate the bill until this month and set it aside after a few hours without voting.

U.S. officials arrest Afghan drug lord
NEW YORK - A reputed Afghan drug lord who authorities say operated with the protection of the Taliban has been captured and faces charges that he tried to smuggle more than $50 million worth of heroin into the United States, authorities said.
Bashir Noorzai, who is on the U.S. list of most-wanted drug kingpins, was ordered held without bail at his initial court appearance in Manhattan. If convicted, he could face a
maximum sentence of life in prison.
The full circumstances of Noorzai's capture were not made public. Prosecutor Boyd Johnson told a judge that Drug Enforcement Administration agents arrested the defendant Saturday in New York, but he did not elaborate.
Noorzai, 44, remained silent during the brief hearing. He was given a court-appointed attorney, David Greenfield, who declined to comment outside court.
Prosecutors say the smuggling attempt involved about 1,100 pounds of heroin.
Kelley said that between 1990 and 2004, the defendant and his organization "provided demolitions, weapons and manpower to the Taliban."
The Taliban protected Noorzai's opium crops, its heroin laboratories in Afghanistan and Pakistan and its drug transportation routes out of the country, prosecutors said.
Last year, the White House added Noorzai and nine other people and organizations to the list of most wanted drug lords. The White House gave Noorzai's name as Haji Bashir Noorzai.

A rare mid-week tournament will bring the Jayhawks to the T-Bones' Community America Ballpark in Kansas City, Kan., today and tomorrow.
Kansas (25-20, 4-10 Big 12)
will face New Mexico State at 7
tonight and Sacramento State at
noon tomorrow.
The Best of the Midwest tournament will be the first tournament held at the T-Bones' complex since the ballpark's completion in 2003.
"I think it will be real exciting for our program to be involved with this," coach Ritch Price said. "It's a beautiful facility. I hope in the future we'll go over
there and the place will be sold out."
Price said he hoped this year's tournament would build its popularity and attract more teams in years to come.
WWW.KANSAN.COM
"It's nice to get out of the Big 12 and play in a tournament," said Jared Schweitzer, junior first baseman.
This year, the Best of the Midwest tournament will consist of four teams, two of which are actually from the Midwest.

Kansas State is the only other Big 12 team playing, although Kansas will not face them in the two days of competition.
Schweitzer is one of the offensive leaders for Kansas.

"Hopefully, I do well," Schweitzer said. "I don't pay attention to the streak. I just go one at bat at a time."
Also providing offense for the Jayhawks are junior outfielders Matt Baty and A.J. Van Slyke.
Baty went 5-11 with four RBI and four runs scored in the Texas Tech series. He is hitting .320 on the season with 36 runs scored.

Van Slyke leads the team with

"I'm feeling pretty good at the plate right now and just am trying to help us get some runs," Van Slake said
Van Slyke connected on his eighth home run of the season
Kansas will take on New Mexico State (22-17, 7-5 Sun Belt Conference) in game one of the tournament.
"The players will really enjoy tomorrow night and the
atmosphere," Price said. "They're excited about the opportunity to play multiple days in a row. If you're a baseball player, the more days you swing is usually the better you swing the bat."
New Mexico State is hitting 341 as a team and boasts a line-up of power hitters.
Sophomore infielder Adam Harvey led the team in its second consecutive conference sweep, against Arkansas State this weekend.
Harvey went 9-12 last weekend with seven RBI and eight runs scored.

The 2004-2005 women's swimming and diving season officially came to a close this weekend with the postseason awards banquet.
At the ceremony held Sunday afternoon, four swimmers were recognized with individual awards. Following the awards presentation, coach Clark Campbell named juniors Gina Gnatzig and Emily Rusch the 2005-2006 team captains.
It was a bittersweet day for current senior co-captain Miranda Isaac, who received the Karen Dionne award. The banquet was her last event as a lavhawk swimmer.
"It was an appropriate goodbye," Isaac said. "It was a great time to reflect on what swimming has been to us for the last four years."

The Karen Dionne award is given annually to the most inspirational member of the team in memory of Karen Dionne, a Kansas swimmer whose career was halted after a car accident following her individual conference championship in the 100 breaststroke in 1985. Isaac was also a breaststroke swimmer during her tenure at Kansas.

Kansas offense looking anemic
There is much optimism surrounding the prospects for Kansas football next season. The Big 12 North is as wide open as it was a season ago. There is no clear favorite for the league title. That bodies well for Kansas, but it won't matter. Kansas will not win the Big 12 North title next year.
Anchored by senior linebackers Nick Reid, Banks Floodman and Kevin Kane, the Jayhawks return the fourth-ranked rushing defense and the fifth-ranked overall defense in the Big 12 from a season ago. Junior Charles Gordon returns at cornerback to try and repeat last season's performance in which he led the Big 12 in interceptions and tied for the NCAA lead. The only major loss to the defense is the departure of defensive end David McMillan, who was drafted by the Cleveland Browns in the fifth round of last weekend's draft.
The defense shouldn't miss a beat. I entirely expect it to be in the top half of the conference team leaders in all defensive categories. It won't be enough, though.
Without a consistent offensive attack, the Jayhawk season will play out much the way it did a season ago. After impressive wins against Tulsa and Toledo last year, Kansas fizzled, only beating Kansas State and Missouri the rest of the season.
Again the Jayhawks open the season with cupcakes in Florida Atlantic, Appalachian State, and Louisiana Tech at Memorial Stadium, before going on the road for the next four conference games.
Kansas will likely win convincingly against its first three opponents before facing real competition in the conference. Conference opponents will expose a Jayhawk offense that will have overachieved in its first three games, just as it did a

KANSAN CORRESPONDENT
John Tran/KANSAN
The Mountain Dewds, an informal student group, occasionally like to turn the clock back to the elementary school days and play a little kickball.
Sometime last year the Dewds were bored and looking for something to do on a Saturday night. Senior Nick Williamson suggested that they play kickball. Their first game took place inside Anschutz Sports Pavilion, but they decided to take future games outdoors. They now play on top of the Allen Fieldhouse parking garage, or, as they like to call it, the Lawrence International Kickball Coliseum.
The Dewds play about twice a month on a Friday or Saturday night when the weather is nice. Usually game dates are not planned, but played at "random" times around 10 p.m. when the Dewds are bored, according to senior Brett
Cantrell, one of the self-proclaimed masterminds behind the kickball games.
The number of participants ranges from 14 to 50 people. Just like in elementary school, they start by picking captains and then chose teams. Cantrell, Williamson and Evan Toren all agreed that they prefer smaller, more competitive games.
Williamson, however, said that sometimes he enjoyed the more light-hearted games. Two Saturdays ago, the kickballers had just that, a light-hearted contest that featured the first ever battle of the sexes. There were special rules introduced for the game to even the playing field, including girls getting four outs as opposed to two for the
"When there is a lot of people, it is hard to get the game started because people choose not to listen." Williamson said.
Toren agreed and chimed in,
"Everyone sits around and
talks. The girls mostly do that."

Bahe plans transfer
Nick Bahe, a walk-on sophomore guard, has decided to transfer to Creighton University.
Bah,e a Lincoln, Neb., native, said the decision was difficult, but he wanted to play more.
"It just bubbles down to the fact that I am a competitive guy and I miss playing." Bahe said.
Bahre said he had been contemplating transferring since the season ended. Bahre played 12 minutes last season.
"It's tough," Bae said. "You come to practice every day and you play defense for an hour and a half. I guess it has just been building for a little bit."
After the season ended Kansas coach Bill Self met with all of his players.
Self said Bahe's situation was unique because he turned down several scholarship offers from Ohio, Bowling Green and Cal Poly to be an invited walk-on at Kansas.
"I encouraged Nick to explore any opportunities because he wants to have a chance to, impact a major college program from a playing time standpoint." Self said.
"We talked about the opportunity for impact minutes in the future," Self said. "With the young guards we have, it's something that cannot be guaranteed."
Bahé visited Creighton last weekend. He said after speaking with Creighton coach Dana Altman, he made the decision to transfer.
NCAA rules require Bahe sit out next year. He has not been guaranteed a scholarship.
"They haven't made any promises," Bahe said. "But coach Altman and his staff told me that if I am working my butt off then he thinks there is a good chance I can get a scholarship."
Babe will finish the semester at the University, but hasn't made specific plans about when he would join the Creighton team.
"I've got some lifelong friends here," Bahe said. "I have the utmost respect for coach Self, but I go to war with these guys every day. I am really going to miss them."

and national rankings. Also, conference champions automatically earn the right to play in regionalals, resulting in some teams ranked behind Kansas making it. O'Neil said seeing worse teams in the postseason would serve as motivation for the team.
"They are fired up to start working toward next year," she said.
Now that the season is over and no players are graduating, the Jayhawks have all summer to improve their games so they can make a run at regionals in 2006.
"We'll hit the recruiting trail starting in May through August," she said.
Also, O'Neil has time to add a few players to the team.
Some of the players will gain experience this summer by playing in tournaments, including qualifying tournaments for the U.S. Open and U.S. Amateur.
"We still had some really good bright spots," O'Neill said. "Winning our first event and Amanda (Costner) winning her first tournament. We are excited about next year."
"We want to put ourselves in position to help the team out and practice harder with more focus," Giangrosso said.
Even though O'Neil and the players are disappointed, they came away from the season with a positive perspective.

BIG 12 MEN'S GOLF
Young stars await Kansas in Texas
BY TIM HALL

kansan SPORTWRITER
The Kansas men's golf team has one more day of practicing in Lawrence before heading to Trinity, Texas, tomorrow to compete in the Big 12 Conference Championships at Whispering Pines Golf Club. Here is part three of a four-part series previewing the Jayhawks' opponents.
YOU'VE BEEN HONORED
Iowa State
The Cyclones have had a difficult year on the links, but are coming off their best performance of the season a
CYCLONES
the Boilermaker Invitational in West Lafeyette, Ind., on April 17. The Cyclones finished the tournament in a tie for sixth place and shot their second-lowest three-round total of the season of 886. Freshman Joe Cermak led Iowa State with a career-best three-round score of 219 to finish in a tie for ninth.
Strong play from the freshmen, including the consistency of freshman Chris Baker, will be what Iowa State looks forward to heading into the championships. Baker
is leading the Cyclones with a 74.4 stroke average in his first year. His best finish of the season came in the early March at the St. Croix Collegiate Classic in the Virgin Islands. Baker shot r
career-best 214 for the tournament and finished in a tie for fifth.
Baker
The Cyclones have their work cut out for them heading into the Big 12 Championships. They are ranked 160th in the nation by Golfweek magazine and they have never won a conference title.
Baylor
Baylor has tasted success before in the Big 12 Championships. The Bears won the conference title
BU
2001. when the event
2001, when the Clement was played at Prairie Dunes Country Club in Hutchinson, by a convincing 10 strokes. This year, the Bears are ranked No. 44 in the nation by Golfweek, and they have a young star in sophomore Jeremy Alcorn.
Alcorn is ranked 31st in the country as an individual, and was named the Big 12 Golfer of the Month in March. He leads the Bears this season with a 71.07 stroke average and has won three tournament titles this
season, two coming in March. Alcorn won the University Club Intercollegiate in October and the Borderrunner Intercollegiate and the Border Olympics in March.
Alcorn
Baylor recently finished in a tie for seventh at the Aggie Invitational on April 17 in Bryan, Texas, in its final regular-season tournament. Alcorn led the Bears with a score of 214 and a sixth-place finish, and sophomore Chase Thomas finished in a tie for 27th with a three-round score of 225. The Bears had had a strong season so far, but they will need a strong performance from Jeremy Alcorn to be effective in Trinity.
Texas Tech
Texas Tech is one of the nation's best tear and it has a good shot
win the championship. Ranked 25th in the nation by Golfweek, the Red Raiders have not yet won a conference championship since the inception of the Big 12 Conference.
T
Dresser
Though they haven't won a tournament this year, the Red Raiders have been close with four top-five finishes on the season.
Recently Texas Tech finished third at the Aggie Invitational in the team's final tournament of the regular season. Junior Andrew Dresser led the Red Raiders with a final-round 71 that propelled him to a seventh-place finish, his highest of the season.
He also recorded his third top 10 finish. Sophomore Oscar Floren shot a three-round total of 219 and finished in a tie for 10th, also his third of the season. The Jayhawks need to look out for the Red Raiders, who are dangerous and on a quest for their first victory of the season.

HOROSCOPES
- Today's Birthday If you can manage to restrict your spending carefully this year, a winter vacation to a special place becomes a reality. Go for it.
Josh Shalek/KRT CAMPUS
❖ Aries (March 21-April 19) Today is a 7.
Finish up yesterday's assignment. Find out how much you have. Conditions for travel are improving, big time. Get ready to go.
- Taurus (April 20-May 20) Today is a 6.
Be careful with money today and tomorrow. You'll be tempted to gamble. Sell something to bring extra income, instead. Let somebody else overspend.
- Gemini (May 21-June 21) Today is a 7.
It's not a very good day to travel. You'd do better to confer with others via electronic means. You're less likely to lose your luggage.
+ Cancer (June 22-July 22) Today is an 8.
The work pace increases, so let friends know you'll get back to them later.
There'll be more time for fun and games after you'v made the money.
- Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) Today is a 6. The next few days are easier, and a lot more fun. Make it a point to hang out with the people who make you laugh. You can get back to the serious issues later.
- + Virgo (Aug. 23-Sep. 22) Today is a 6.
Before you take off on a new adventure, finish a household task.
Something that was difficult before will be a lot easier now.
- Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Today is a 6.
Your curiosity is about to be piqued.
That's one of your favorite sensations.
Get yourself to a place where you can
enjoy it fully.
- Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Today is a 7.
Use your resources wisely over the next few days, to fix up things that are broken at home. Also replace the stuff you've thrown out, that you now realize you need.
+ Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Today is a 7, it won't be long before everything starts to make sense again. This is an illusion, of course, but for you it's as good as the real thing. Bide your time.
+ Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Today is a 7. Start sorting through that pile of paperwork that you've accumulated. There's a lot that can be discarded, but don't toss the whole stack. There are treasures in there.
aquarius (Juan. 20-Feb. 18) Today is a 6.
Friends come to your rescue, and not a moment too soon. The villain is vanquished and now your attention turns to the celebration.
- Picas (Feb. 19-March 20) Today is an 8. The more you learn, the more you realize that others don't know everything. The mystique of leadership loses some of its glamour when you're asked to take over. Be prepared.

Division I-AA national tournament April 14-16 in Kansas City, Mo. The team made strong showings against Iowa State, Western Illinois and Missouri. Team president Adam Ferrari, Wilmette, III., senior, said he had envisioned a charity event since helping to restart the club in the fall of 2001.
"When we first restarted the club, the two things we really wanted to do were to go to nationals and do a charity event," he said. "I'm extremely excited that this is all coming to reality."

Tomorrow's game will bring on another unfamiliar opponent as the Jayhawks face Sacramento State at noon.
These games may not be as vital as Big 12 competition, but the Jayhawks see the games' purpose.
The Hornets (18-22-1) come into the tournament after a 4-3 loss to UC-Irvine on Sunday. The day before, however, Sacramento defeated No. 5 Arizona, 7-4.
"Every game is a must-win for us at this point," Van Slyke said. "It's an interesting break. We get to play some West Coast teams that we don't get to see every day."
The mid-week tournament is not one the players said they were used to, and because of it the Jayhawks will play five of the seven nights this week.
Junior first baseman Brian Blauser connected on a three-run home run in the victory.
But, the team has more excitement than concerns

Van Slyke agreed.
The Jayhawks' two-day tournament begins tonight against New Mexico State at 7 p.m.
"I'd rather play every day. I don't like practicing, not a lot of the guys do. It makes it hard on school, but everyone likes playing the game," Van Slyke said of the week's game load.

Prepare yourselves for another season of close losses, near upsets and a lot of disappointment as the Kansas offense blows games and the Big 12 North title next season.
The quarterback position is still the key for the Kansas offense, and for the entire team as a whole. One of the three quarterbacks, Jason Swanson, Adam Barrman or Brian Luke, has to emerge for this team to have a chance of winning any conference games. If they play as poorly as they did last season or during the spring game, this team will lose a lot of close games.
Like last season, Kansas will stick with opponents in the first half, taking close games into the locker room. After the half, the defense will tire when the offense continually goes three and out without taking any time off the clock. The fatigue will allow the opposing offenses to score and ultimately win games. This defense will play a lot of snaps in 2005, and it will show by the ends of games.
The Jayhawk defense may be good enough to hold opponents to less than 20 points a game and be among the conference leaders in defensive statistics, but the offense is so bad that it will negate any positives the defense brings.
Until this team finds a quarterback that can lead the offense and a running back that can eat up the clock, it will be hard-pressed to win many games in the conference.
John Randle's dismissal from the team makes it a little more difficult to depend on the running game, but it shouldn't matter that much. He wasn't all that effective last year rushing for 540 yards on 147 carries, a minisце 3.7-yard per carry average. If Clark Green can return to his 2003 form in which he rushed for 968 yards on 204 carries, Kansas' rushing offense should be better.

Former senator discusses new book

KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Bob Dole only heard his mother cry uncontrollably one time. It was when she walked into his room at Winter General Hospital in Topeka and saw him in a full body cast, he told an audience at the Robert J. Dole Institute of Politics yesterday.
Dole had been wounded in northern Italy while fighting in World War II. The injuries left him temporarily paralyzed.
After a minute, his mother regained control, Dole said. As a result of the stress, she also learned how to hold a cigarette. It was something he taught her.
"It was a habit I picked up in the war," Dole said. "They used to put a little four-pack of cigarettes in your c-rations, a little dessert."
Dole recalled his memories
from the war for the second annual Dole Lecture at the Institute. The lecture focused on Dole's new book, "One Soldier's Story," a memoir about his youth and World War II experiences.
About 800 people attended the lecture, Bill Lacy, Institute director said.
Veterans and students alike
filled Hansen Hall inside the Institute, while others crowded around television screens placed around the lawn and inside two outdoor tents.
"He is a cool guy to listen to," Adam Powell, Garden City freshman, said. "He's got a good personality and he is funny."
Dole incorporated humor
throughout his lecture.
One audience member asked Dole whether his military experience had been good training for his political career.
"Yeah, I got shot at, which is good training for politics," Dole joked.

PARKING DEPARTMENT
Students may lose spaces at Lied Center
BY ERIC SORRENTINO
esorrentino@kansan.org
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Andrew Stark purchased a Lied Center parking permit for $50 this year. The McCollum resident was one of 50 students who did not want to pay $85 for a Daisy Hill parking permit.
The Yates Center freshman and other residence hall students who saved $35 on parking permits at the Lied Center parking lot, or Lot 300, this year might not have that option next fall.
The Lied Center permit was supposed to be a temporary, one-year plan, but the parking commission found no alternatives this year. It was not supposed to be offered next year, but the parking department may have no other choice.
Aside from the Lied Center, there are no other places to designate for the overflow of cars from Daisy Hill, Provost David Shulenburger said.
As a result, students who live
in residence halls may have the option of buying Lied Center-only permits again for next year, depending on how the parking commission fields Shulenburger's request
Shulenburger said he would take action on the issue as soon as this week. He sent an e-mail to the commission to try to set up a meeting.
WILDLIFE
"I'm going to ask the parking commission to reconsider the Lied Center matter," he said.
The plan this year was to keep the Lied Center from filling up to the point that it could not accommodate daytime events. Shulenburger said.
The parking department oversold Daisy Hill permits by about 59 percent this school year, said Mary Olson, parking department business office manager. Permit holders outnumber parking spaces by about 450. The Lied Center has 1,042 spaces, Olson said.

What is no bigger than a large hand and can make two cars come to a screeching halt? A baby fox playing on Sunnyside Avenue between Robinson Gymnasium and Summerfield Hall.
Blake Henshaw, West Point, N.Y., junior, saw a fox in the street Tuesday morning when he was walking up the stairs next to Robinson.
Henshaw first saw the family of foxes last weekend as he drove back from his brother's house on Indiana Street, he said.
He said he enjoyed seeing the foxes, but he was also worried about them living by the street.
Henshaw called the KU Public Safety Office about the foxes and was told the office knew about them. Nothing would be done about relocating the animals, though, Henshaw said.
Foxes can be found throughout Lawrence, but they like living on campus for its open spaces and slow-moving cars, said Robert Timm, professor of ecology and evolutionary biology.
The litter of foxes is nothing new to the campus. This litter is probably related to a litter of pups that was born last year behind Bailey Hall, he said.
As long as people don't cause problems for the fox pups, the University shouldn't take action to remove them because they aren't causing problems, either. Timm said.
The biggest problem the foxes cause is eating food residents lay out for their cats, but not many people mind feeding a fox pup now and then, he said.
"If we have a live-and-let-live attitude then we shouldn't have a problem." Timm said.
That's the kind of attitude Wayne Reusch, assistant director of landscaping, has.
"If someone wants something done about them, they can call a dog catcher." Reusch said.
He said he often encounters wild animals on campus at night and in the early morning.
Rheuben Johnson, owner of A Bee's Keepers and Animal Control in Kansas City, Kan., said University officials should contact a pest service or animal control if they want any wild animals removed from campus.
The foxes could help beautify the campus by eating roadkill and dropped food. They also eat rabbits, squirrels, insects and mice. At this time of year, the foxes will eat mostly nuts because not much food is available, Timm said.
He said the bottom line was that people should appreciate the wildlife that graces the University campus.
A family of foxes have taken up residence in between Robinson Gymnasium and the Computer Science building. Relocation for the animals is not necessary at this time.

Chip Taylor, director of the Monarch Watch, looks in on a caterpillar yesterday afternoon in front of Foley Hall.

Pesticides and encroaching human developments are depleting habitats of monarch butterflies. The monarch weigh station project is getting people to plant milk weed and nectar plants, both monarch habitats, to ensure a future for the butterfly.

KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Taylor is the director of Monarch Watch and professor of ecology and evolutionary biology at the University of Kansas. The creation of "waystations" is his latest attempt to preserve habitats for the species along its North American migration route. He hopes that his efforts with monarchs will lead to preservation efforts for other migratory species.
After more than 10 years, Orley "Chip" Taylor is still fighting for the monarch butterfly and hoping to help other animals at the same time.
"We've been encouraging people to grow waystations for years, but they never really went anywhere until now." he said.
A waystation is a microhabitat composed of various plants that can support a species.
Monarch butterflies flock to Mexico for the winter months and then breed after returning to the United States in the spring.
Monarch butterfly larvae can eat only the various species of milkweed, and are laid on the plants by females. Adult butterflies eat the nectar of numerous flowering plants.
Taylor's new way of advocating the need for waystations includes giving them a familiar reference for people to compare them to.
Stops along a train route, or the rest stops along an interstate highway, are good examples of how useful and important waystations are to monarchs, he said.
Waystations fulfill the need for monarchs to have microhabitats spread all along their migration routes. There they can eat, rest and mate. Many other migratory species, such as various birds and bats, also use microhabitats along their migration routes.
The need for the waystations is high. Monarch populations are still in decline after a peak in 1996, mostly because of habitat loss and climate changes, Taylor said.
More than 3,000 acres of potential habitat are lost every day to development, he said.
New farming practices have also reduced habitats.
to grow the waystations via their Web site, www.monarchwatch.org. They cost $16.
Milkweed used to grow in limited amounts in soybean crops, but the introduction of genetically modified crops and the use of herbicides eliminated nearly 80 million acres of farmland as potential habitat, Taylor said.
More than one-fifth of the group's total stock of kits has already been sold after being available for less than a week. Taylor and Sarah Schmidt, program assistant, are pleased by the positive response.
Monarch Watch is selling seed kits
"It's the gardening season, so people are becoming interested," Schmidt said.
Taylor and Schmidt emphasized that the creation of waystations will do more than just provide shelter to monarch butterflies.
They hope to convince people that habitats are more than just large areas and can be as small as a backyard garden.

Burglar escapes by using pepper spray
Lawrence police are investigating a burglary and battery that occurred early last Friday morning, said Sgt. Dan Ward, Lawrence Police Department.
The burglary occurred about 3:30 a.m. in the 1300 block of Kentucky Street, according to a police report.
A 22-year-old KU student reported the incident to police after he came home and found an unknown individual standing outside the door to his residence, holding items that belonged to his roommate, Ward said.
Items taken include a $350 Minolta digital camera, a $450 Sony digital camera and $1,000 worth of jewelry, according to the report.
The man confronted the individual and tackled him when he tried to run away, Ward said, and the suspect then sprayed the man in his face with pepper spray and ran from the scene.
The man described the suspect as a white male, 5-foot-5, 130 pounds with brownish-blond facial hair.
Anyone with information is encouraged to call Crime Stoppers at 843-TIPS.

Sam Pepple has a lot of stuff.
Piles of it, everywhere, in his store, Everything But Ice, 936 Massachusetts St.
Mattresses are stacked to the ceiling, tables and chairs are scattered throughout the basement and the front room has everything from toaster ovens to a prosthetic leg.
And Pepple has 24 days to get rid of it all because he sold the building where his business is located.
"A lovely downtown business bought it," Pepple said. "We're the happiest people ever. It's been a good 24 years. It's better than a real job."
He wouldn't reveal what local business bought the building or how much he sold it for.
Pepple got the offer about 30 days ago and said coming to the decision to sell the building wasn't a big deal.
Terri Wilson, an employee of 14 years at Everything But Ice — an unclaimed and damaged freight store — got the news that Pepple sold the

Before working at Everything But Ice, Wilson worked as a bartender and a bouncer.
building Friday.
She was asked to work as a temporary employee but has stuck around. Wilson said.
During the interview process she was asked to multiply 12 times 46 and what the last thing she fixed was.
"I said a margarita." Wilson said.
But what the interviewers were looking for was if she repaired anything.
"I told them I changed the oil in my truck," she said.
Pepple plans to reopen Everything But Ice in mid-July but he doesn't know where.
"It's the most exciting and terrifying time of my life right now," he said. "I don't what I'm going to be doing in 24 days."
When the store reopens it might be a young adult furniture shop, a scratch and dent casket shop or a
damaged sporting goods store.
Josh Collins, Overland Park resident, chopped at Everything But Ice two years ago and bought a couple of tables.
"I had to go in," Collins said. "It's just off the wall. They sell one-of-a-kind stuff that can't be replaced."
Collins and his wife, Jessica, 2002 graduate, dropped by the shop yesterday after they saw the signs that that said Everything But Ice was leaving. The red-lettered signs covered the windows of the store.
"People say the signs have a lot of attitude." Wilson said.
Love Garden Sounds/Arts Multiplex, 936 1/2 Massachusetts St., which shares the building with Everything But Ice, will stay even though the building is being sold, Pepple said. It still has time left in its lease.
Pepple expects all of the merchandise to be gone from the store in 24 days.
"We might have trouble selling that leg." Wilson joked.

Dole
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
He also joked about the two years he attended the University, from 1941 to 1943.
Dole remembered meeting with Laurence
Woodruff, dean of students, about his poor grades.
"I get D's in logic." Dole said. "I've never been very logical."
"I think it's remarkable to see someone who is 81 and is as sharp as he is," Bryan Young, Wichita senior, said. "I wonder if I'll be as sharp as him when I'm that age."
After the lecture, Dole autographed books for several hundred people who waited in line.
The Institute also served hot dogs, chips, cookies and beverages to guests after the lecture. David Zainali, Liberal senior, sat in front of the Institute munching chips and hot dogs after the event.
When Woodruff told him that he should think about joining the service, Dole took his advice. He joined the Army the next day. Dole said.
"We didn't know about the food," Disinger said. "But it's a great idea because it has kept a lot of people around talking about the lecture."
Parking
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
— Edited by John Scheirman
The lot usually holds cars from Lied Center events, students with the Park and Ride option and from Daisy Hill parking overflow.
Stark said he heard about the difficult situation of parking on Daisy Hill before he attended the University.
He said that he liked the direction Shulenburger was going with his proposal to the parking commission, but that the issue was more than approving the Lied Center permit for next school year.
"I think the Lied Center parking pass is something they need to keep indefinitely," he said. "Students should have the choice on parking on Daisy Hill about half the time or being able to park in the Lied Center all the time."
The parking department may try to clear some of the Lied Center parking by building a new park and ride lot on West Campus. But this was not approved when it was originally pitched to the parking commission, Donna Hultine, director of parking, said.
If approved, the parking department would break ground on the new parking lot well into 2006. Hultine said. It would have 1,600 to 2,000 parking spaces and cost between $5 and $8 million. Hultine said.
As far as Lied Center parking for next year, Shulenburger said he did not want a situation where students who lived in residence halls could not find a place to park their cars. He's pushing for an answer within the next few weeks.

Rescuers find outdoorsman after eight days stranded, cold with broken leg
BY MELISSA TRUJILLO THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
- Edited by Austin Caster
John F. Russell/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Michael Sisk, physician, discusses how Charles Horton broke his right leg, while using an x-ray of Horton's leg, during a news conference yesterday at Yampa Valley Medical Center in Steamboat Springs, Colo. Horton, 55, broke his leg April 17 while backcountry skiing in a remote area of Rio Blanco County. Horton spent eight nights in the wilderness before being rescued Monday morning.
STEAMBOAT SPRINGS, Colo. — For someone who had spent eight cold nights stranded in the Colorado backcountry with a broken leg, Charles Horton was in great spirits when rescuers reached him.
"I was amazed that he had such a spirit, that he was that close," said Karin Satre, one of two searchers who found Horton early Monday not far from the trail they were patrolling.
"He was going to rescue himself, by golly," she said yesterday.
Horton, a massage therapist and experienced outdoorsman, was in fair condition at Yampa Valley Medical Center. Doctors postponed an operation on his broken leg until today. He also was being treated for a fractured rib, dehydration, minor frostbite and moderate hypothermia.
Horton, an accomplished dancer who often gives lessons, seemed most worried about whether his injury would keep him off the dance floor, Michael Sisk, Horton's doctor, said. Horton will need months of physical therapy and is at risk of developing arthritis or requiring an artificial knee at some point.
"I think with Charlie's attitude, he's going to be back doing everything he was going to, everything he's doing, whether it's with his own knee or an artificial." Sisk said.
Horton's ordeal began April 17, when he fell and broke his leg on what was supposed to be a one-day cross-country ski outing not far from his home in Steamboat Springs, about 100 miles northwest of Denver.
Horton had told just a couple people where he was going, but did not designate one person to check on his return. With most of his friends on vacation, it was a week before anyone realized he was gone.
"We've all acknowledged that that is something that we are all lax on in this community, because we're all so accustomed to going into the woods and going on hikes," friend and spokeswoman Mary O'Brien said.
"He just took too much for granted," said Marc Satre, Karin's husband and a fellow search-and-rescue volunteer.
Horton spent the week alone, sleeping under trees or makeshift shelters and sunning himself during the day to keep warm.
"By Sunday night, he was soaked pretty much to the skin. And at that time, he questioned his
On the third day, he began to inch toward his car three miles away, using his elbows to drag himself along.
ability to go on much longer," O'Brien said
On Sunday, his longtime friend and landlord Johnny Walker returned from vacation and found Horton's cat unfed, his plants without water and a slew of phone messages wondering why Horton had missed massage appointments.
Walker called the sherriff's office; the search began early Monday.
"It was a little bit lucky," search commander Jim Vail said. "(The engines) woke him up and then he started whistling."
About an hour into the hunt, when two rescuers had shut off their snowmobile engines to dig one of their machines out of the snow, they heard someone blowing on a whistle.
Searchers split into two groups, with Karin Satre and Pete Schwartz heading down a Forest Service road.
Suddenly, Schwartz slammed on his brakes and Satre pulled up behind.
"I looked down and Charles was there. He was down the bank," Satre said. "He had whistled right when Pete passed, and Pete heard it through the helmet."
Temperatures had dipped into the 20s at midweek, but little snow fell, and Horton managed to stay relatively dry until Sunday night.
say, "He said, 'I was doing real well, and then it rained on me all night, so now I'm really cold,'" Satre said.

"The anarchists organize things — in the '50s we never organized things," he says.
Former beatnik Ron Pine recently attended a lecture on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict at Solidarity.
Strano claims the trend is in response to the growing threat posed by the current administration's consumerist, fascist regime.
Solidarity is part of a new movement of anarchists in action, which some are calling New Wave Anarchy. In the last half decade it has been the fastest growing counter-cultural movement in the United States, according to numerous national media sources, including "The Nation" magazine.
The movement lends itself to ideas from communism, socialism, punk and radicalism.
"Anarchism is compassion," says Belinda Penaloza, freshman in Latin American studies. She identifies as a Christian anarchist.
"Being a true Christian means you're also going to be an anarchist," she argues. "There is just so much misconception about both. People don't investigate either. They just accept the government's and capitalists' manipulated definitions."
Penaloza has been involved with many of the groups grounded at Solidarity.
Lawrence Police Chief Ron Olin stands in front of a group protesting a dinner at the Holiday Inn Holidome, 200 McDonald Drive. The event commemorated the opening of the Robert J. Dole Institute of Politics on July 21, 2003.
State of Kansas
Out a Our Beloved
She helped start Workers Support, a group offering assistance to people, especially "legal or illegal" Hispanic immigrants, who are unable to get government services. Penalolaa herself emigrated from Mexico City six years ago.
Penaloza also finds time to write to her pen pal — an inmate in a New York correctional facility — as part of Kansas Mutual Aid, an ongoing effort lending support to "political prisoners." To anarchists, that means all prisoners.
State Department was on hand in response to an Overseers Security Advisory Council's listing of a potential threat, which Penaloza lightly mocks. She says the convention went smoothly and peacefully.
She was proud to take part in organizing the North American Anarchist Gathering in 2002. Five hundred anarchists camped at Clinton Lake for the weekend convention. The U.S.
This Saturday, as most, Penaloza leaves a meeting to go home and help her housemate, Vanessa Hays, senior in women's studies, prepare for Food Not Banks.
Hays makes her way through erupting bags of bread, beans and indefinable edibles that fill her kitchen and begins cooking with some help. Food Not Banks is a local take-off of a growing national anarchist effort. Food Not Bombs, which provides a free vegetarian meal, made of food reclaimed from dumpsters, to the community. It serves massive appetites in front US Bank, on the corner of Ninth and Massachusetts streets, every Saturday evening at 7.
"We feed off their wastefulness," says an FNB regular, calling himself "Scrounger," as he takes big bite of recovered rigatoni.
Like many anarchists Scrounger makes dumpsterdiving a way of life.
Strano explains that their black-bin binges "utilize the excess, rather than participate in disease of consumerism."
"I do it because I can't afford a good slice," Scrowunger savs plainly.
After filling up at Food Not Banks, Erica Goddard, freshmen and native Lawrentian, fights her way through a crowd of tube tops, beer belies and slurred hoots in front of It's Brothers Bar and Grill, 1105 Massachusetts St., turning the corner to check in at the Oread Community Network's meeting at Solidarity. You won't see this hipster spending her week-end partying or bar hopping. Her Saturday nights are dedicated to patrolling Lawrence on bike for OCN's version of Neighborhood Watch.
The 115-pound anarchist, together with her patrol partner, cruise the streets between 1 and 4 a.m., keeping an eye out for police harassment or the average drunkard in need of escort. Goddard says she helps them so they don't have to face the consequences of police intervention, such as a fine or being hauled off to jail.
The anarchists carry ideals and dreams that could never fit into a ballot box. They do not support political parties. Instead, they try Direct Democracy, which Strano vaguely defines as "everyone in the community taking part in every decision."
Many anarchists do not vote, yet they maintain a reputation as one of the most political groups in town.
In mid-April the group was bestowed Lawrence's Tom and Anne Moore Peace & Justice Award, which recognizes a person or group for significant contribution to the local, national or international community.
The group's most recent focus is queer rights. Ruscin, the GTA in women's studies, has a passionate message for the queer community in Lawrence.
"I say act up, fight back, let's get out of the bars and into the street," Ruscin says. She shares the idea that gender and queer rights is the rights movement of our time, and Solidarity's support gaily expands beyond its large queer section in the library. In early April, it hosted the Tyranny Road show, a truly bi-partisan transient performance group. Most recently the group has started "Queer as Fuck," a radical "queerleading" group lending their cheers to the queers.
In August 2001, and again in March 2004, the anarchists threw a block party at "corporate corner" on Massachusetts Street, between Sixth and Seventh streets, blocking the streets with sofas. The eclectic party-goers played a game of corporate heads piñata, blasted loud punk music and sprayed "anti-corporate" logos in front of Gap.
The revolution will not be televised, but is being digitalized, and catalogued, and organized — by the anarchists, seemingly set on
bringing radicalism back to Lawrence.
The anarchists' next protest will take place, with raised fists rather than flags, on April 30 at the Army Recruiting Office, 2223 Louisiana.

Burroughs
In 1981, infamous counterculture author William S. Burroughs invoked to Lawrence. He brought a countercultural rebinx, nirvana activism, reviving members from the various decades and countercultural movements. People such as David Chile and Rusty L. Mankhovich resurfaced and wrote books to document local oppositional cultures. Once again, Lawrence opcinal culture gained national awareness.
Wayne Propt also reenamed as friend and chef of Burroughs. Propt built mock weapons for Burroughs, most notably a cannon that shot bowling balls.
Burroughs
"Borrabbu just come out here so he could go shent his damn汗." Prost says.
Burroughs attracted international countercultural icons to town, including Timothy Leary, Patti Smith, Bob Dylan, Kurt Cobain, Steve Buscemi and Allen Ginsberg. Some performed while in town.
Beginnings of punk
To many, Lawrence has become known as "the place where Bitrone lived."
Punk
The country was blinded by a brief strobe of despair that burned out the radical culture of the 70s, but soon the original punk was revealed; which engaged in struggles against authority. The punks went to the The Outhouse — now the Out House, a B.Y.O.B. strip club at 1837 N. 1500 Rd., where hardcore punk shows raged on every weekend.
Punks went to shows at the Fetley, Eugene, Massachusetts St. or The Bottlemen, 737 New Hampshire St. — but the real, "hardcore punks" went to punk houses like the P Pirate House.
The 90s brought a popularized punk revival to Lawrence. The much younger "new pink" engaged in struggles against mediocrity and tried to shock the society they could fit into that were chosen at the Bonney League. 916
The Pirate House was the house for wild punk parties,
and "bandzounds" shoes were held every weekend.
"It became do-it-yourself touring, and we were do-it-yourself punks," says Pirate House couch-crasher Chris Kellogg. From the greedy muddy scene emerged the anarchists, a more organized and active offshoot. They garrisoned the Pirate House and renamed it the Joe Hill House, transitioning it from a punk party house into a sober organizing space. The leftover punks opened a new punk house that they called the Haunted Kitchen.
There was a silent tension between the Haunted Kitchen thrill-seeking, party-living punks and the too-busy-organizing to-party, ex.punk anarchists. They stayed out of each other's spaces.
Alicia Rusin describes 1990s Lawrence activism as "breaking away from our parent models of success, to real fun — not homogenized consumer-oriented fun." The anarchists slowly became Lawrence's most unified and radical movement since the 70s.
Arming themselves with their bike, they participated in Critical Mass, which met monthly to ride in the streets occpying entire lanes, proclaiming their rights to the road. The group brought together like-minded locals, riding together into the beginnings of Solidarity

Election of Benedict XVI flies in face of progressiveness
When the Second Vatican Council began on Oct. 11, 1962, Pope John XXIII said that the task of the Council must be to find ways that the Roman Catholic Church can present itself to the world of today, and can reach into the minds and hearts of men.
He said the Council must not become a school where theologians can perfect their
formulation of Catholic truth. It seems ironic now, 43 years later, that this same church has just elected a pope who will reverse the effects that Pope John XXIII had hoped to see.
It is not Pope Benedict XVI's views that pose the problem, but it is his inflexible attitude towards them and the way in which he has upheld his views that is.
Pope Benedict XVI, the former Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, has been described as "God's rottweiler"
He earned this and other unflattering nicknames
seems that any pope would believe the same things. However, this is not completely true.
while he was the leader for the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, which enforces and interprets the laws of the Catholic Church.
A new pope with antiquated views will mean a throwback to the same old antiquated Catholic church. If anyone was hoping for some sense of progressiveness in the Catholic church, they had better not hold their breath waiting for the next pope.
He is completely opposed to birth control and the possibility of women entering the priesthood, and is a strong supporter of Catholic priests remaining celibate.
The former pope, John Paul II, was thought to be progressive. For example, he was the first pope to accept Darwinism and said that evolution was a fact of nature.
He is also opposed to homosexuality, has said that anyone who supports euthanasia and abortion should "be denied Communion," and has called rock music "the vehicle of anti-religion," according to the BBC.
The Catholic church's view on birth control has the potential to be changed but this
The BBC said that there were few recent Catholic controversies that had not elicited a strong response from Ratzinger.
These facts may not seem strange as it
will not occur under Pope Benedict XVI's reign. According to Thomas Burch, a professor at Georgetown University during the 1960s, Pope Paul VI, Pope John XXIII's successor, had asked for a committee to find a way to change the church's stance on birth control.
The committee had voted for birth control to be allowed by the Catholic Church, but at the last minute it was repealed. Since that time, this issue has remained in the forefront of debate everywhere, with numerous Catholics wanting it to be
allowed.
While Catholics and non-Catholics may argue that they will not be affected by this new pope's views and that it poses no threat to them, they should consider this: Pope John Paul II helped to overthrow communism and improve relations among countries and religions.
This pope will have an effect on the world, however little. But the kindness and goodness of people will always have an effect on the world as well. What people of all faiths and people that have no faith at all can do is to live up to their understanding of what good is and the rest of the world will follow.

Media creates more fear in public than government
▼ WORDS ON PAPER
I
For all the supposed outrage over the USA Patriot Act and its efforts to curtail freedoms, America's youngest citizens, the ones who have the most to lose, seem to care little whether the government limits the rights available.
JONATHAN KEALING jkealing@kansan.com
A recent study commissioned by the John S. and
James L. Knight Foundation revealed startling facts about how high school students view the First Amendment. According to the study, a full one-third of high school students believe the First Amendment goes too far.
"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof, on abridging.
exercise thereor; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances;" the First Amendment says.
There doesn't seem to be much room for interpretation there.
Really, the First Amendment guarantees just four rights: free religion, free speech, free press, free assembly. If the future of America believe that those basic rights go too far, what else will they sacrifice?
Disdain for the extent of the
Disdain for the extent of the First Amendment was not the only fact revealed in the study. It also said nearly three-fourths of high school students are either indifferent to or take for granted the First Amendment.
More than speech is in danger at the moment. Across the country, Americans view the media with at the very least contempt, and at the worst downright disgust. Taking a cue from society, courts are taking a narrower and narrower view of the privilege provided to
reporters.
It's a frightening commentary on society if so many Americans have such a basic misunderstanding of the foundation of society.
Seventy-five percent of students think flag burning is illegal and half believe the government can censor the Internet.
Federal and local judges have thrown several reporters in to jail for refusing to reveal confidential sources. Even those that don't end up in jail find themselves the subject of an ever-increasing number of subpoenas and summonses.
The framers of the Constitution guaranteed an independent media in order to safeguard the public. Now, though, the people are more suspicious of the media than they are of the government.

the constitution guaranteed an independent media in order to safeguard the public. Now though, the people are more suspicious of the media than they are of the government.
With these facts in mind, Americans must stem the erosion of awareness of civil rights. It is the responsibility of every American to convey the significance of the Bill of Rights to students. The Knight Foundation survey also said that Americans with the most appreciation for the First Amendment have one thing in common: They participated in student media.
With America's declining
With America's declining view of the media, these programs are becoming increasingly endangered, the survey said. If this trend continues, America's history of an independent media is increasingly endangered.
Unless Americans take action, our rights and our traditions will continue to disappear through laws and regulations like the USA Patriot Act.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
To the students in the Oread neighborhood,
Students should heed other residents trying to live in surrounding community To the students in the Oread neighborhood.
On Sunday night, one of you roared through the intersection where our rental house sits. You then returned to execute a pair of fast, loud, out-of-control, 360-degree "donuts" in the SUV your doting parents probably purchased you to make sure you made it through your four years at KU safely.
Well you may be safe and sound, but those of us who share this residential neighborhood with you are not.
You see, last night you ran over and killed our beloved cat, Hank, taking his sweet, innocent life in a matter of seconds. And all you did was paal out in your gas-guzzling SUV and speed away without a care in the world, leaving my distraught wife and myself to lift our beautiful cat off the roadway and try to bring him back to life.
Living in a college town and, worse, a student neighborhood has its perils.
And I was able to forgive you and your peers when you lopped off the passenger side mirror of my car one weekend night.
Or woke up our infant son with your 4:30 a.m. partying, screaming and drunk dialing on our front porch. Or the times you stole our potted plants, tipped over our son's stroller and urinated on the side of our house.
I wrote those all off to the miscreant spirit of youth, and tried to look the other way. And I looked forward to the aftermath of graduation and the peace and quiet that would ensue.
But that will all feel hollow now, thanks to last night. Our cat was a random victim of casual SUV
With all this city's fuss about roundabouts and traffic calming circles, why is it so hard to get someone to put up a four-wav stop sign at intersections where cars zoom through residential streets at 55 mph?
violence, and probably not the first or last animal or human to be thrown into harm's way on the busy streets of this neighborhood.
I don't know what the point of this letter is other than to grieve for the loss of a kind, gentle, noble animal, and express concern for the lack of respect and apparent lack of values I've seen in the students with whom I share this corner.
Or why can't we get the police to set up a speed trap here vs. the tonier streets of West Lawrence, where you're apt to get waved down for doing a mere 30 mph in a 20 zone on Maine Street to pad the city coffers. But good luck try getting an officer to show up to quiet down a late night party in Oread.
I'd like to believe that universities can still be the place where great young minds are nurtured and young adults emerge to help lead this country and this world out of the darkness, cynicism, greed and materialism into which they have receded in recent years.
But this morning, I have very little hope for anything other than the day we can move out of this neighborhood and live as far away from my current neighbors as possible.
This letter is dedicated to Hank, whose life was an ongoing lesson in bravery, tolerance and love.
We could all learn a thing or two from him

WEDNESDAY, APRIL 27, 2005 12A
The first oppositional culture
the most important culture.
The term *beatmint* was applied to non-conformists, . . .
including then KU students Ron Pine and Wayne Prost.
We beatmints weren't radical, we were not aware of the
educational standards in society," says Pine.
In 1954, 5 out of 38 restaurants in Lawrence served to African Americans.
Kansas in the 1950s, was extremely conforming, dreary, drab and prune. All you had to do was like, wear pink socks and people said, "Oh my God, pink socks." Wayne mocks. The Kansas Bureau of Investigation watched the beat likes, who were criticized for integrating members of different races, sexual orientations and genders. The state government assured residents that they would clear the "wetrd people" out of Lawrence.

Students reflect in the aftermath of a protest held July 20, 1970, in which 18-year-old freshman Nick Rice was killed by a police officer.

The '60s introduced KU as a countercultural Mecca
Hippies
The Bashlight Tavern — now the Memorial Union Parking Garage — and the Rock Cake Cafe — now The Crossing — were the headquarters of the Hippies, or the "street people" as they were known in Lawrence. The Rock Cake sold "Fascist Pig Burgers" for 35 cents.
A National Marijuana Phenomena
Throughout town and along the Kaw River, fields of marijuana grow like sunflowers. Maps to the hush fields were sold at the Rock Chalk, the Gauldest and head shops throughout town: The seedy "K pot" hotwild was smoked through the country. CBS 700 Minutes" aired a special on the "Kaw Valley Hemp Pickers," and the nation watched scenes of "hemp" harvesters in action. The director of the Kansas Department of Agriculture's Noxious Weeds Division reported that there were 52,050 acres of marijuana in the state in 1968.
As word about Lawrence spread, Hippies and wayward freaks alike migrated to farms and communes throughout town to cultivate real rural hippopithecus.

in 1900 then Chancellor E. Lawrence Cluermiers refused a demand by the Black Student Union to crown a black homecoming queen during the ballet of the Kansas-lowa football game. From the University — the heartland — a radical activist pulse pumped activism to bodies throughout the nation. The movement, which had begun to change the world, was the result of local action at college campuses like this one.
FROM BEATNIK TO ANARCH
Rumor of Lawrence's "liberals, freaks, activists, queers and the ghost of Burroughs" brought Ailecia Ruscin, graduate teaching assistant in women's studies, to Lawrence from Auburn, Ala. To continue the tradition, she joined some local expunks and created a radical new home for the oppositional culture: Solidarity! Revolutionary Center and Radical Library, 1119 Massachusetts St.

It is one of many "Infoshops," anarchists libraries and organizing spaces, popping up around the country in recent years. The homepage on Solidarity's computers is Infoshop.org, and under the library's phone is The Anarchist Yellow Pages. Both are ways the Infoshops stay connected.
During the day, the space serves the community as a library: free Internet, book checkout and space to sit and read — but this library is run by anarchists.
This bookshop and the Borders a few blocks away are as different as Jock and Freak: Borders offers how-to books including "Build a Dream Home," "Start a Business," "Become as Rich as Trump." Solidarity's how-tos are "Protect Yourself From the Police," "Give an Abortion from Home," "Throw a Legal House Party," "Build a Squat," "Become a Conscientious Objector."
The library also features a large selection of independently published zines, anti-
copyright literature and b o o k s unique to the space, covering topics ranging from an archist gardening to queer theory. There are no
quiet signs, no late fees, no library cards and loitering is encouraged.
Solidarity is more than just a library. It serves as a

space is all-inclusive and has members from all walks of life. Solidarity attracts serious revolutionaries, misplaced outcasts, thrill seekers and curious voyeurs, but also includes transgendered Christian ministers and progressive parents coming in for children's reading hour.
Not everyone at Solidarity is an archist, said volunteer librarian David Titterington, senior in fine arts. "You don't have to be an archist to get involved."
"The Infoshop is open to the community, it's just organized by anarchists," adds Titterington's shift partner, Cassi Ross, junior in organismal biology.
But many at Solidarity do identify as anarchist, including co-founding member Dave Strano. They make a point to clarify their definition.
Ross is not an anarchist but says she loves to be involved because of "all the interesting ideas that swirl around in the space."
"People hear anarchist and think 'chaos and destruction,' but actually we
are about peace and equality. And we're very organized," he says as he catalogues zines and prepares shift schedules.
In the backdrop of the Campanile, the Kansas Union burns on April 20, 1970, during the "days of rage." Thirty-five years later, the University of Kansas is still investigating who set the Union ablaze.
Solidarity makes a point to not hide from the public eye. The organizers continue to advertise their space and are located within open visible distance of the Lawrence Police Department. The group even exposed themselves in a calendar called "Kansas Radicals Exposed," which features Solidarity librarians baring their bodies of all shapes and sizes, including transgendered. The calendars are sold at the library for about $6.
"It's really nice," says Dan Carey, GTA in American studies. "Solidarity is one of the only places in town I know of that integrates members from various countercultures, bringing together activists from different generations who would have never met otherwise."
lifelong activist CJ Brune, business manager in the School of Education, was "really inspired" when she saw a protest organized by Solidarity on campus against the War in Iraq.
"I haven't seen anything like that at KU in a long time," she says to a group of young anarchists at Solidarity. "There was time, in the 80s and most of the

In August 1970, Richard Nixon's political commission on campus unrest sent a team to "investigate the sources of violence and unrest in Lawrence," which hasted full-force through the end of 1971.
On February 7, 1972: CJ Brane and her friend Christine Smith participated in one of the most effective and important events for women's rights at the University. A total of 30 women occupied the East Asian Studies building, previously just seattle of Cortin Hall, chain-locking the doors and demanding essential rights for female students. Thirteen hours and countless negotiations later, the University agreed to meet their demands with offers including an affirmative action negotiation team, free childcare, a women's studies program, women's healthcare, female staff on the financial and committee and basic equality for women. The group of women were named "The February Sisters," and none faced arity reprimand from University.
"We took over a building and all of a sudden people started listening to us — and we were woment! This is power!
This what its all about! This is how you change things in this world!" CJ Brune says.

Jayhawk baseball satiates sports fans
For sports fans, the football season is truly over until late July. The NBA is starting its second season of the year that will not reach the pinnacle until June. As for the NHL, well, we are still wondering when — or if — another season will begin. NASCAR does not count until mid-September, so it is time to get out and support your boys in blue.
Hal! No, I am not talking about THOSE baseball boys in blue from Kansas City. I am talking about a team that actually has an above-500 record. A team that plays its home games within stumbling distance of any tailgating location in Lawrence: the KU baseball team.
What is so great about this Kansas team is that admission to home games is free with a KUID, and there is no need to camp out for a week for the best seats. Unlike the football and basketball games, there is no need for binoculars unless you want to follow a Gus Milner or AJ. Van Slyke home run over the Blue Monster looming in center field. Did I mention the occasional "Quarter Dog Day?"
So the team has a 25-20 overall record and is last in the Big 12 standings. Fans don't let those types of stats hurt the turnout at a football game.
Of course, at football games, guys' animal instincts are fulfilled by watching 300-pound guys hit each other. But you never hear about women digging any of that stuff. But with baseball, chicks dig the long ball, and you will see your fair share of home runs at a baseball game.
We defeated Kansas State in football and swept the Wildcats in basketball; why not take baseball from them as well? This weekend, the foes from the farmland will come in to take a crack at our boys. If the Jayhawks defeat them in baseball, Kansas fans can turn to their Manhattan counterparts and say, "At least your girls can play sports."
For those sports fans who are admired by the cameraman at basketball games or those who would like to get some face time, there will be three games televised by the ESPN network. When Texas visits during the first week-end of May, ESPNU will air the first two games and ESPN will show the series finale on May 8.
WWW.KANSAN.COM
The first game of the series, on May 6, will be a "Quarter Dog Day." On a Friday night, full of beer, what sounds better than getting four hot dogs for a dollar?
So, for those of you who are drooling about wanting to see a live sporting event but just do not have the cash, the car or the patience of going to a Royals game, head to Hoglund Ballpark — catch some rays, catch a game, grab a quarter dog and pray for lots of foul balls. If all else fails, watching a foul ball crash through the windshield of a car parked next to the ballpark will always brighten up the game. Unless it's your car.

On a night when the temperature at Community America Ballpark dipped near 40 degrees, the bats were anything but cold. The two teams combined for 23 runs on 19 hits.
The Jayhawks started the scoring in the first inning when senior catcher Sean Richardson doubled with two outs, driving in two runs and giving Kansas an early lead. Junior first baseman Jared Schweitzer then followed the double with an RBI single, pushing the lead to 3-0.
Brian Lewis/KANSAN
New Mexico State quickly responded with four runs in the second inning. Jayhawk senior lefthander Mike Zagurski surrendered two walks, a single and loaded the bases for Aggies
junior catcher Brandon Lance. Lance drove all three runners home with a double to deep center field. Lance then scored as a result of the first of Kansas' four errors, a botched ground ball by freshman third baseman Erik Morrison on a tough play in the hole between third and shortstop.
Senior pitcher Mike Zagurski throws a fastball during the first inning of last night's victory against New Mexico State. Zagurski pitched for four innings in which he allowed six hits and four strikeouts.
Kansas exploded in the third inning to regain the lead. Without the aid of an extra-base hit, Kansas scored five times. Aggies senior righthander Joseph Hampel helped the Jayhawks' cause by walking four batters and surrendering two singles. An Aggie error only added to the high-scoring inning, where the Jayhawks sent 11 batters to the plate.

Van Slyke selected Player of the Week
For the fourth time this season, the Kansas baseball team has landed a player as the Big 12 Player of the Week.
Junior outfielder A.J. Van Slyke was named player of the week yesterday after an explosive week at the plate. In the last three games, Van Slyke was 6-for-11 and scored six times. His two homers in those three games lifted his slugging percentage on the week to 1.273.
Van Slyke blasted his eight home run of the season in game one against Texas Tech last weekend. That tied him with fellow outfielder Gus Milner to lead the team. His 42 RBI on the season leads the team.
This is the second player of the week award for Van Slyke. He first made the list on March 1. Miliner and junior outfiteler Matt Baty were given the award earlier this season.
This marks an improvement on last season when no Kansas players received the recognition.
Van Slyke went 1-for-4 with two RBI against New Mexico State last night.

It was an epic battle of the sexes, played out on the volleyball court.
The Kansas volleyball team took on the men's club team in three games at the Horeisi Family Athletics Center, west of Allen Fieldhouse, and won two games to one. The match, which began at 7 last night, raised $276 for the KU Habitat for Humanity chapter.
Both teams enjoyed success during the 2004-2005 year. The
women made it to the second round of the 2004 NCAA Tournament for the second year in a row and posted a 19-12 record. The men were invited to the NIRSA Division I-AA National Tournament for the first time in more than a decade.
"There was a lot of respect or both sides," senior Adam Ferrari, men's club team president, said. "I think we all knew that they were a good team but we underestimated them."
In the first match both teams came out swinging. Point for point, the men and women exchanged hits, but neither team could take a convincing lead. Freshman Emily Brown and redshirt freshman Caitlin Mahoney combined for a stuff to tie the score 12-12, but the

Chicago recruit makes oral commitment to Missouri
COLUMBIA, Mo. — Just days after Linus Kleiza announced he planned to leave Missouri to enter the NBA draft, the Tigers may have found another big man to help fill the void.
Chicago standout DeAndre Thomas on Monday made an oral commitment to play for the Tigers. The 6-foot-8 center is considered one of Chicago's top recruits.
"I liked everything about Missouri," Thomas said. "Coach Q (Quin Snyder) sold me on the program."
Thomas picked Missouri over Illinois and Big 12 rival Kansas. Thomas said he had considered visiting Kansas over the weekend but took a trip to Missouri instead.
Thomas averaged 21 points and 12 rebounds for Westinghouse High and was considered the best unsigned senior big man available.

ST. LOUIS — These days, walking around and holding a conversation ranks as progress for St. Louis Cardinals reliever Cal Eldred.
Cardinals reliever Eldred heeding doctors orders
The right-hander has been sidelined since April 11 with myopericarditis, an infection of the lining around his heart. There is no timetable for his return from the 15-day disabled list and once he's cleared to resume baseball activities, Eldred might have to go through the equivalent of a personal spring training.
"I'm feeling a little better, but I still know I've got a wags to go." Edred said.
The ailment had originally been diagnosed as bronchitis contracted in the team's season-opening series at Houston. Doctors think it may have developed from a throat infection and two ear infections Eldred contracted while in Houston.

A lead-off home run is a rare sight in college softball, but it happened at Arrocha Ballpark yesterday. Twice.
Kansas junior outfielder Heather Stanley hit her fifth home run of the season over the right field fence to begin a double-header between Kansas and Arkansas. She then hit her sixth home run of the season to start the second game.
"That's something I've never done before," Stanley said. "I'm glad I got to help the pitcher out in both games."
Stanley sparked a team slugfest, which contained 24 hits and four home runs, and helped Kansas defeat Arkansas in back to back games, 7-2 and 6-5.
The pair of triumphs gave the Jayhawks their fourth straight victory, and improved their record to 24-19 on the season.
In the first game, every Kansas player who went to the plate had at least one hit. Junior infielder Jessica Moppin, the Big 12 Player of the Week, led the Jayhawks with two RBI on a triple to the center field fence.
Coach Tracy Bunge said her team's stellar hitting performance resulted from being patient and relaxed.
"I like that we're driving the ball the other way," she said. "We're continuing to get big hits that go toward right and center field."
After Stanley's home run in the second game, the rest of the Jayhawks kept the pace and hit three more home runs in the first inning.
Freshman lefthander Christina Ross pitched a complete game eight-hitter and allowed only two runs to earn the victory in game one.
Junior infielders Destiny Frankenstein and Nettie Fierrros each hit home runs to give Kansas a 4-1 lead.
"It's like her hitting is contagious," Bunge said of Stanley. "She gives the confidence by making contact. If she gets a hit, it seems like everyone else does, too."
Junior righthander Serena Settlemier threw a complete game to earn the victory in the second game, but gave up four runs in the seventh, and final, inning to make matters interesting.
SOFTBALI
Bunge came out of the dugout and settled her pitcher down by telling her to focus on her pitch location and get the
Jayhawks out of the inning.
Settlemier responded by striking out the Arkansas batter to end the game.
Next up for the Kansas softball team is a home doubleheader against North Dakota State at 3 and 5 p.m. on Thursday.

Second baseman receives Big 12 Player of the Week
One result of the softball team's positive performance last week was the naming of Jessica Moppin as Big 12 Player of the Week.
Moppin, junior second baseman, is a first-time honoree. She went 4-for-5 on Saturday, including nailing the game-winning hit in the 5-4 victory.
Sunday's 4-1 victory.
Moppin recorded a three-run homer in
Moppin is batting .310 on the season, including eight home runs. For her career, she is one home run shy of the school record for home runs, 23.
Moppin was 8-for-15 for the week, including two home runs, 15 total bases and six RBI during the four contests.
In yesterday's games against Arkansas, Moppin went 1-for-8 and knocked-in two runs in the double-header. The Jayhawks went on to win both games.

Cardinals pitcher in form again after shoulder rehabs
ST. LOUIS — It's a big relief for Matt Morris, given the luxury of concentrating on his pitches instead of that dull ache in his shoulder.
The St. Louis Cardinals' former ace has made two starts since beginning the season on the 15-day disabled list while rehabbing from offseason surgery. Both have been big successes, giving the NL champions perhaps the best fifth starter around. In 11 innings he's allowed three earned runs with 11 strikeouts and two walks.
"This is the best I've felt physically in a long time." Morris said after working five effective innings on Sunday to help the Cardinals sweep the Astros. "It's been a gradual process, and the last two games I couldn't ask for anything better.
"All in all, it's night and day difference."
Morris won 15 games last year, but with a career worst 4.72 ERA as he battled mechanical woes brought on by his balky shoulder, patching together a decent year despite reduced velocity. He had been expected to test the free agent market before it was determined he needed arthroscopic surgery, and instead ended up re-signing with the team that
drafted him in the first round back in 1995.
Morris made such a rapid recovery he might have been able to start the season on time, way ahead of schedule considering the surgery was in November. But he wasn't needed until April 19 due to days off in a rotation that is the first since the 1932 Cubs to feature five 15-game winners.
So far, Morris is more like the pitcher who won 22 games in
2001 and 17 in 2002 than the guy who's fallen off elite status the last two years. That's good news for a staff already bolstered in the offseason by lefthander Mark Mulder, who threw a 10-inning shutout to beat Roger Clemens and the Astros on Saturday.
"As a team, I always had faith in what they were going to do." Morris said. "Myself, I had questions just because I'm trying to feel it and find it.
"I'm glad I'm able to step up. You're mentally challenged as well as physically."
The wait at the start of the season was worth it for Morris. He'll get an extra day off before his next start on Saturday at Atlanta, but not as a concession to his operation. There's a day off on Thursday that will push everybody back.
"I know I'll feel 91 pitches, but I'd feel 70," Morris said. "It's just part of it."

Senior Scott Sharpe picked up the victory for Kansas, improving his record to 2-0 on the season. He relieved junior righthander Kodiak Quick in the seventh inning and gave up one hit. Junior righthander Don Cyzz quelled a New Mexico State surge in the c ninth inning and picked up his fifth save.
Two singles, a hit batter, two walks and an error led to the explosion.
Kansas (26-20) overcame a sloppy performance in the field. The Jayhawks' four errors led to numerous scoring opportunities for New Mexico State.
"When you start as many freshmen as I do, you have to live with that sometimes," Kansas coach Ritch Price said.
Price was disappointed that the Jayhawks didn't bury the Augies when they had the opportunity.
"We should have won that game in the early innings." Price said. "I was happy with the way we battled back all night though."
Junior left fielder A. J. Van Slyke was pleased with the way Kansas hit the ball.
"We knew we had to score a lot of runs tonight," Van Slyke said. "You don't want to have to score 12 runs to win a game, but we got the job done."
After blowing a save and being saddled with two losses in recent games, Czyz restored order to an otherwise wild offensive night. He pitched two innings of shutout baseball to finish the game.
TOTAL
Kansas will take on Sacramento State at noon today at Community America Ballpark. Sophomore lefthander Sean Land will take the mound for the Jayhawks in search of his fourth victory of the year.
"I felt really good tonight." Czyz said. "It was good to get back on track and pitch well."

"We approached it like we do every other game, from our pregame meal to our warm-up," said Brown, who also said it was a challenge to set over the men's high blocks.
Cook tied the game at 22 with a desperate tip, drawing good-natured complaints from the crowd about the borderline carry. After he served the ball out of bounds on the next volley, the women scored five straight with the help of junior Andi Rozum's jump serves to take the lead 27-23. The men climbed back, attacked the double blocks and tied the game at 28. The teams traded points until Rozum snuck a tip over the blocker to win, 33-31. Neither team led by more than
four points the entire game.
"They hit a lot higher and a lot of times they hit over our blocks," junior Kansas player Andi Rozum said. "In that case, there's not much you can do about it except pray that it doesn't hit your face."
In the first game, each team tried to overpower the other, but the second game relied on finesse and strategy. The men proved to be better at reacting to ricochets off blocks, while the women's blocks weren't as tight as in the first game. The women trailed by four or five points for most of the game after the men took an early 10-5 lead. A kill by freshman Kristin Buehler brought the women to within three, 20-17, but the men's team extended its lead to five, 28-23.
Rozum's jump serve closed the gap to two before senior
"I thought it was fun just knowing that it went to a good cause and that we were helping raise money for a good organization."
Andi Rozum Kansas junior
Adam Ferrari called a time-out for the men. After trading points and trailing the entire game, the women won, 32-30, on a kill by senior Ashley Michaels.
Cook and Ferrari were able to find holes in the women's defense and drive the ball home. The men led most of the game and won, 30-23.
Both teams looked tired to begin the third game, which showcased the men's hustle.
"I thought it was fun just knowing that it went to a good cause and that we were helping raise money for a very good organization," Rozm said.
This was the last of the four spring scrimmages the women are allowed by NCAA regulations. After finals, the team will travel to Brazil to practice, play and allow some of the team members to spend time close to home.
Ferrari said that despite losing, the men's team had fun. Team members hope to make the charity match an annual event, with the help of the Athletics Department.

Andy's left foot has a metal frame with 14 rods that help force his foot to a 90-degree angle, which will help him to eventually walk with real shoes.

KU grad Andy Marso fights, survives and lives with the scars of meningitis
By Marissa Stephenson mstephenson@kansan.com | senior staff writer Photos by Stephanie Farley
Taking a bubble of water from the mouth of the beaker and dropping it into the water.
Editor's Note: A year ago today, KU senior Andy Marso woke up in his scholarship hall room critically ill with meningitis. Kansan senior staff writer Marissa Stephenson reconstructs his year in the following narrative. Quotes and scenes were provided in interviews conducted with Andy and others who were there. Photos on the inside pages are graphic, and demonstrate the reality of the disease and its consequences.
The hand is color No. 4. It's darker than the prototype he practiced with and more like his own skin, a subtle tan. The prosthetic is heavy, nearly a pound. The slick vinyl plastic covers a hard metal frame that creates a thumb, index and middle finger — the ring finger and pinky are pure plastic, just
with these sensors.

He has to time it perfectly. The remaining severed muscles in his left hand, amputated just below the last knuckles, twitch to trigger six round metal contact points inside the prosthetic's

He positions the plastic hand over the fruit. The extended cuff and prosthesis are four inches longer than his arm once was, which makes this even more of a precision, everballing chore.
He carefully contracts the muscles in his left stump and watches the foreign fingers close around the yet-unblem-

Got it. He can't feel the banana, can't sense whether he's squeezing too hard, but he's lifted the fruit up to his face, and now, with the one finger he still has—his right thumb—he switches off the battery-powered hand.
Completing this simple task, without help, is a milestone.
April 28, 2004
It's 5 a.m. Wednesday, and Andy Marso groggily wakes up. He feels nauseated, thirsty and thinks he's still running a fever. Padding down the Pearson Scholarship Hall steps for a glass of water, the nerves in his feet prickle, like his feet are asleep. But it's not that — it's only like they're asleep. The prickles feel weird, painful, not like anything he's felt before. He went to bed last night with chills, fever, weakness; all the symptoms that made him call his parents and tell them he must have the flu. Sick as he was, he covered the Basehor softball senior-night double-header anyway — Andy's The Sentimental high school athletics reporter — and missing a game, flu or no flu, isn't how he operates.
over his skin.
At 11 a.m., he struggles to open his eyes. He's in and out of consciousness. With great effort, he tries to pull himself out of bed, but when his feet touch the cold linoleum, it feels like electric shocks running
Andy gets back in bed and thinks maybe he can sleep it off.
Helpless, he lies back down.
Lying on his back, Andy doesn't yet know the year ahead will include 10 surgeries. He can't see the next four months in the hospital, the 50 percent of his body covered in blackened, dead tissue that looks like third-degree burns.
His hands feel fine, all 10 fingers still intact, and the choice whether to amputate his legs below the knee or fight to keep what's left of his feet is weeks
away, Right now,
he just can't
move.
Clay Britton walks out of his Modern British History class and remembers he should check
on Andy. Clay knows Andy was sick with a 103-degree fever last night, and he wants to check on his friend — a best friend, the first friend he made in college. Both were wallflowers at a Pearson Hawk Night event when they first met freshman year. Clay will see if Andy's well enough to play 1080, the XBox snowboarding game they're both hooked on.
Clay knocks on Andy's door at 11:40 and gets no answer. He opens the door and sees Andy lying under the covers, half moaning, half asleep.
Andy operates his prosthetic hand by flipping an on/off switch on its right side with his lone finger — his right thumb. On Monday, Laetke made sure Andy had no trouble switching the prosthetic on and off.

Thieves thrive during spring
CRIME
Open windows, doors make burglars' work easy
BY JOSHUA BICKEL
jbickel@kansan.com
KANSTAN SAST WRITER
Unlocked doors and open windows common during the springtime make homes and vehicles easy targets for burglars, said Sgt. Dan Ward of the Lawrence Police Department.
While the number of burglaries and thefts doesn't change during the spring, the method of entry does. More burglaries and thefts occur because of unlocked doors. Ward said.
On-campus buildings and property are also vulnerable. Last week, a $1,500 laptop computer was stolen from the Art and Design Building and a parking pass was stolen from a car, according to KU Public Safety Office reports.
In the last week, KU students have reported 15 thefts, according to police records. Eleven of those thefts occurred either on campus or near campus and four of those burglaries were classified as non-forced entry.
In one of the incidents,
$1,825 worth of property was
taken from the 1300 block of
Kentucky Street, according to
police reports. Among the items
stolen were two digital cameras
and jewelry.
"We see a lot of non-forced entry in the spring." Ward said.
Even though residential burglaries don't happen very often, it's mostly during the spring and summer when they do occur, said Lois Schneider, who, along with her husband, Jim, owns 17 rental houses. All are within walking distance of the University.
"T there's lots of people around here that find creative ways to break into a house." Lois Schneider Lawrence landlord
One of the couple's properties was burglarized recently, she said. All of their properties have deadbolts installed and lighting around the houses to deter people from breaking inside. But those precautions didn't stop one burglar from breaking in.
Since then, Schneider has spoken with a number of her tenants, reminding them to lock their doors and windows at night.
"There's lots of people around here that find creative ways to break into a house," Schneider said.

Store closes department
Wal-Mart starts to expand auto section first to go

KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Richard Chappelle heard the rumors weeks before the actual word came.
Last February, Wal-Mart,
3300 Iowa St., announced it would expand within the next year and a half.
While the store will remain open during the renovation, some departments will close temporarily.
First to go was the automotive department, which closed April 1.

With the new expansion comes a need for more employees. Wal-Mart currently employs 325 people, and by the end of the expansion the store will require about 550.
"I think it will open up a lot more jobs for students," Douglas said.

PATRIOT Act draws debate
BY MARK SHERMAN THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
"we need to have a more public disclosure to enhance the public's confidence in the way in which this additional and broader authority is being used," Snowe said at the hearing, marked by generally friendly questioning.
But Sen. Olympia Snowe, R-Maine, said fears persisted about U.S. authorities spying on Americans and peeking at library records because the administration had released scant details
WASHINGTON — Excessive secrecy is hurting the Bush administration's effort to win renewal of the anti-terrorism PATRIOT Act, lawmakers told top law enforcement and intelligence officials yesterday.
Attorney General Alberto Gonzales said there had been no substantiated allegation of abuse of the law since its enactment in 2001 in response to the Sept. 11 attacks. CIA Director Porter Goss and FBI Director Robert Mueller made similar statements at the hearing of the Senate intelligence committee.
The administration wants Congress to make permanent all 15 provisions of the law that expire at the end of the year, some of which have aroused civil liberties concerns among liberals and conservatives.
The administration also has yet to submit a report about its use last year of a provision of the law expanding the FBI's power to compel Internet access firms and other businesses to provide information about their customers or subscribers, senators said.
about the use of the law.
"We're to some extent doing oversight in the dark," said Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore. "I operate under the Ronald Reagan theory; trust but verify. What I do know is we haven't gotten the report that is supposed to be filed."
The criticism was echoed by the American Civil Liberties Union, which said the administration had been unwilling to share information even with lawmakers who had clearance to review sensitive information. The ACLU is part of a broad coalition that backs changes to the law.

Members choose holdovers to give 'institutional memory'
The Student Senate changed hands last night as outgoing senators finished their final meeting and new senators began their yearlong terms.

Former student body president Steve Munch reviewed the various issues that the outgoing Senate had worked on.
University buses will begin a trial run of biodiesel fuel next week, too, said Jeff Dunlap, former student body vice president and Leawood senior.
Senate had worked on.
Student and faculty seating at basketball games, beer sales in the University of Kansas' Unions, guaranteed tuition and online course evaluations were some of the issues that the outgoing Senate had addressed, Munch, Bellevue, Neb., junior, said.
The use of biodiesel fuel was one of the last projects he was working on, he said.
After the outgoing Senate adjourned, the incoming Senate began electing committee representatives and appointing executive officers.
Three outgoing senators were elected to continue serving on the new Senate as holdover senators: Arthur Jones, Dallas junior; Kyle Stearns, Derby junior; and Stephanie Craig, Edmond, Okla., junior.
These senators will provide institutional memory to the new Senate, said Craig, who was the vice-presidential candidate for Delta Force. Traditionally, the incoming Senate acknowledges the presidential candidates from the losing coalition by electing them as holdover senators, she said.
"It's great that the new Senate has respected that tradition and honored Delta Force in that way," Craig said.

There are about two civil wars a year, said Vernon Smith, who spoke last night to an auditorium full of people at the Kansas Union: Smith, who co-won the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences in October 2002, spoke about—among other things—why civil wars occur. Countries that have a greater amount of resources, income and growth rate have a higher chance of civil war.
Vernon Smith, Nobel Memorial Prize winner in Economic Sciences, returned to his alma mater, the University of Kansas, last night and identified the world's biggest problems.
In his lecture, entitled, "World Issues and the Role of the Economist," Smith discussed his answer to the question posed to him at a recent conference,
"How would you spend $50 billion on the world's most pressing issues?"
The issue was to find what could be done to deliver solutions, he said.
At the Copenhagen Consensus, eight economists gathered to discuss and evaluate the world's biggest challenges. The conference took place in May 2004.
The group spent five days discussing 10 scientific papers that contained 36 possible solutions to challenges written for the consensus. The panel reviewed the challenges and produced a prioritized list of opportunities to solve the world's top 10 challenges in the next four years.
The first four challenges on the list, AIDS/HIV, providing micronutrients, free trade and malaria, were considered to be "very good projects," meaning they were issues with feasible solutions.
focused on the differences between on how the group ranked the challenges and how he ranked the challenges, specifically the No.1 challenge.
"It was important to emphasize the thing you maybe have some practical effect on," he said. "The average person doesn't understand that a lot of problems can't be solved with money."
"I ranked malaria higher than HIV/AIDS with no consideration that solving one is more important, but I actually think
we can do something about malaria," he said. "HIV/AIDS is so daunting, and I saw the same amount of money spent on malaria saving more lives."
He also said he did not think the group gave a high enough rating for free migration. He said he thought free migration was just as important as free trade.
People were concerned that the panel didn't rate climate change high enough, he said.
"But it is a much more longer-run problem compared with these pressing problems that need immediate attention," he said.
One potential problem with delivering aid to foreign countries was getting past corrupt governments, he said.
"There's a role, and I don't know for who, for some sort of contracting, in which one uses leverage to require governments to submit to monitoring and measurement of what is delivered," he said.
There will be a follow-up to the consensus in 2008, which will have an evaluation of the past four years, but there are no formal steps that will be taken to follow through with the decisions made at the 2004 consensus.
include both old and new participants in the consensus.
Smith received the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences in October 2002. He received the award "for having established laboratory experiments as a tool in empirical economic analysis, especially in the study of alternative market mechanisms," according to www.nobelprize.org.
He said he was first invited to nominate someone for the award in 1978, which gave him his first hint that he had also been nominated.
Smith said the group may
To be able to nominate someone, the person must be a previous winner, a department head or a previous nominee, Smith said.
"I was not a previous winner or a department head, which meant that someone had nominated me," he said. "That's the first hint I had of interest in me."
Twenty-four years later, Smith won the award.
This was the first lecture sponsored by the Center for Applied Economics at the School of Business and was funded by the Fred C. and Mary Koch Foundation.

Empathy from all is 'miracle'
Meningitis gave me a taste of suffering that was unimaginable for me. After weeks in a drug-induced stupor, my respirator was removed and I finally became conscious of my surroundings. My arms and legs were stiff and immobile, and the tube that had been breathing for me had dried out my mouth and scratched my throat so that I could barely speak above a whisper. Another tube was still uncomfortably implanted in my nose and down my throat, continuously feeding me a thick liquid. I was incapable of rolling over in bed on my own.
The day I left intensive care was a happy occasion, but I was only beginning a treatment that was, at times, more painful than the illness. Sepsis had left my extremities horribly damaged — I had the equivalent of third-degree burns on 30 percent of my body. My arms and legs were blackened and my fingers and toes were decomposing while still attached to my body. Each day I was carried to the burn unit's "tank room" for hydrotherapy. Nurses and burn technicians would spray me with warm water and strip away the dead flesh until my arms and legs bled. Sometimes I clinched my teeth and faced this silently. Sometimes I broke down, sobbing and begging for another shot of pain medicine.
The physical suffering was intense, but could be calmed by medicine and would usually fade. Nothing could stem the tide of my emotional pain. For the first time in my life I experienced complete helplessness and despair. I tried to keep a brave face for visitors, but in my private hours with my family and the hospital staff I broke down countless times. The nights were the worst. I'd lie in bed crying and asking God why such a thing would happen. I begged for a miracle that would restore my hands and feet, but it never came. Time and again I gave up hope for the future, crying out that meningitis had beaten me, and wanted it to please just be over.
But the sun would rise again and I would wake with the strength to face another day. This strength didn't come from inside me — other people gave it to me through their compassion. It started with my family. My dad, who spent nearly every night with me in the hospital, curled on a foldout chair next to my bed. My mom and grandma took shifts staying with me throughout each day and brought me food after I exhausted every possibility on the hospital menu. My brothers, Josh and Dan, left their homes, friends, jobs and college to be with我 for months at a time. My body was broken and I was like a baby who needed help to eat, wash and even scratch an itch. But I was always taken care of.
The compassion of my friends was also key to my recovery. I had visitors come and brighten my spirits almost daily. My oldest friends were scattered throughout Minnesota and Wisconsin, but all of them visited. Sometimes they would drive eight hours to and from Kansas City on a weekend just so they could spend one day with me. Friends who visited from the University of Kansas included professors, co-workers at the Kansan, fellow scholarship hall residents and classmates I had studied abroad with. The entire burn unit buzzed with excitement the day Keith Langford stopped in to see me.
Two of my most treasured supporters were Kansas City residents Mike Nolte, a burn survivor, and Matt Bellomo, a meningitis survivor. Neither of them knew me, but both came to comfort me with insights from someone who had been in my shoes. All my visitors, as well as my cards and letters, gave me a window into the outside world and quelled the loneliness that threatened to crush my spirit.
At a time in my life when I needed it most, compassion flowed to me from all angles. Besides my family, the true heroes of my story were the members of the hospital staff. Yes, they were paid, but every day they went beyond their job duties. There was a housekeeper who greeted me with a smile and a kind word every morning and another who took my parents' hands and prayed over me in Spanish. The dietician made me special milk shakes because I couldn't stomach the canned high-protein drinks. There was a nurse in the burn unit's intensive care section who would do her paperwork at my bedside, often offering me chapstick because my dry lips were one small pain she could soothe. The burn nurses and technicians were always clowning and joking, and to me a laugh was as effective as a painkiller. On my birthday, the burn staff showered me with CDs, DVDs and other gifts.
In time I would realize that I had been given a miracle, though not the one I had been praying for. I was given a glimpse of the divine in the compassion of those who cared for me. I knew that, as humans, we have a great instinct to help whatever we can to ease the pain of others, even as our own inconvenience. Amidst all the suffering in the world, it is this instinct that gives us the great hope for the future. ■
With a two-pound metal frame weighing down his leg, Andy Marso can't comfortably cross his legs. Andy had surgery on his left foot on Feb. 28 to straighten the atrophied tendons that caused Andy's foot to point down. Harry Marso tightens the frame a few millimeters a day so that it can help force Andy's foot to a 90-degree angle. Andy will have the same surgery on his right foot this Monday.

"How are you feeling? Can you get up?"
"I keep feeling worse ... I tried to get up, but I can't."
When Andy raises his arms, Clay sees the purple bruises blotched on Andy's skin, and he knows this isn't just the flu. He asks Andy if he's called Watkins to make an appointment. Andy hasn't, and he resists calling — he can't move, much less go to the student health center. Clay tells him he'll carry him there if he has to, but they're going, and now.
After a quick phone call to schedule the 12:30 p.m. appointment, Clay walks downstairs to get Andy a glass of orange juice. After all, OJ cures everything.
Clay doesn't realize winning this fight will save his friend's life.
Clay tries to help Andy to his feet, but Andy is wincing, even one step is too much, and Clay needs an extra set of shoulders. He finds Joe Fitzpatrick downstairs at lunch, and asks him to help get Andy out to his car.
"Fine, fine — but if I get whatever Andy has, I'm holding you personally responsible."
They load Andy into the front seat of Clay's car, and Andy's head slumps back, his mouth open, eyes closed. Clay parks in front of Watkins and runs inside for a wheelchair — he's sprinting now. Once he rolls Andy to the nurse's desk, it takes one look to get Andy into his appointment early.
Leah Luckeroth, internal medicine physician, is five minutes away from her lunch break when a nurse catches her to see a patient.
As soon as Luckeroth sees Andy, she knows he is seriously ill. A purplish-colored rash means few things, and one question will define the cause.
"So, when did you get this rash?"
So, when did you get this ask?
Andy says it was late last night,
after the softball game, when he
started to run the fever.
Luckeroth tells her nurse to call 911. If he'd had the rash for days or weeks, it could have been a heart or kidney problem, but to break out this quickly, she knows it has to be meningitis.
The Watkins team floods the room. From an adjoining waiting room, Clay hears a nurse yell "stat" — the only time he's heard it when he's not watching "ER." A nurse puts an IV in Andy's arm, another doctor calls Andy's parents and Luckeroth calls Lawrence Memorial Hospital to alert the infectious disease doctor, so he can alert the University of Kansas Medical Center. A nurse tells Clay to wash his hands.
In minutes, Andy is lying on a gurney in an ambulance on the way to LMH.
At 3:45 p.m., Clay watches nurses at LMH wheel Andy to the helipad for a life-flight to the Med Center. Clay's called everyone he can think of — the hall, Andy's friends, his parents.
The Marsos pulls together
Ginny Marso, Andy's mother, left
her private law office at noon for lunch with colleagues. It's a quarter to one, and Harry Marso, his father, just returned to his house in St. Cloud, Minn. The phone rings, a telemarketer, Harry thinks, and he hears a woman's voice. She says she's from Watkins Memorial Health Center, and that Andy has contracted meningitis and is undergoing tests. Harry hangs up distraught, and calls Ginny; she's just heard from Clay and is rushing home. Within minutes, Harry's bought airline tickets to Kansas City and flipped open an encyclopedia to look up meningitis. When Ginny arrives, she throws three days worth of clothes into a suitcase for the two of them, and they run out of the house.
Ginny doesn't know she won't return to St. Cloud for six months, and then, it will only be for a weekend. Harry has not returned, and is still on leave of absence from his job at Fingerhut, a mail-order firm.
When Andy's parents arrive at the Med Center, Steven Simpson, pulmonary and critical care doctor, lays out the prognosis. Andy has severe bacterial meningitis — bacteria has entered his spinal fluid and crossed into his blood stream. His white blood cells attacked, but the bacteria piggy-backed onto the cells and are now running throughout his body. The only way for his body to fight the meningitis is to cut off blood flow to his extremities, then to his organs, his brain, and last, his heart. Simpson met Andy at the helipad — the only time he's ever done that for a patient — with a dose of Xigris, a new $10,000-per-dose miracle drug. Xigris flows through the veins for 96 hours and flushes out meningococcal bacteria.
2004年
MAY 17 2004
Simpson isn't here to mince words.
"Andy could lose fingertips, toes, maybe hands, feet, arms or legs. The chances for no amputations are about two to three percent."
And that's if Andy lives, which Simpson tells the Marsos is still uncertain. Soon Andy's arms and legs will turn black from the lack of blood flow and oxygen, and Simpson expects dialysis, or failing organs, to set in. Andy will then need a ventilator to breathe.
Once the bacterial meningitis entered Andy's bloodstream, his body shut off the blood flow to his extremities, starting with his hands and feet. After days without blood and oxygen, the tissue in Andy's fingers and toes shriveled, blackened and died. Doctors debridled the necrotic tissue — removing the dead skin — by scraping away the tissue in a hydrotherapy tank pictured in the bottom photo, where they could wash the wounds. The doctors cut until Andy's skin bied, which meant they'd reached living tissue. Andy took hourly doses of Fentanyl, a type of morphine, to withstand the pain of debri-dlement.
Harry feels like he's sinking to the floor, like he's been kicked in the stomach. It's a feeling that will occur again and again this night, and countless nights to come in the next
12 months. This isn't what the encyclopedia said. Andy had called him just last night — he said he had chills, the flu. Harry had chills and a fever just last week; even had to leave work. But he'd gone home, took a nap, and he was fine.
The guys had filled the victory trophy with beer and everyone drank from it. Just a few days ago the Kansan staff, including Andy, went to a concert at The Bottleneck, and people tried each others' drinks, interchanging bottles, glasses and plastic cocktail cups.
Soon, Burhenn hears the rumors that someone at the Kansan has meningitis. She calls Malcolm Gibson, journalism professor and news adviser to the paper, and Gibson says it's Andy, and she knows how serious it is by the
In the ICU, Ginny and Harry finally see their son — his face is swollen and purple, his arms are elevated. He's awake, but he can't speak.
the Student Senate meeting. At the time, Burhenn wondered how a 22-year-old could know he'd be sick a day ahead of time — people in college bounce back the next day — but she reminds herself Andy never backs out of a story, and she calls him at 1 p.m. to check up. She gets his voicemail and leaves a message that she'll bring him chicken-noodle soup that'll fix whatever alms him.
The Marsos take chairs in the ICU to play a wrenching wait game.
Dan Marso, Andy's younger brother, is waiting for an advising appointment when he gets the call from his mom. Andy has meningitis, he's in the hospital, your dad and I are flying down there, she says. Dan doesn't know what meningitis is — it sounds like laryngitis, but he knows that's not serious — and he goes home to research it on the Internet.
The search says people can lose limbs, brain function or even die. The phone rings, and it's Ginny again. Andy's limbs are turning black, his fever is climbing, his heart rate's critical and soon his organs could fail.
To Dan, it was like a stopwatch beginning to tick.
He calls upstairs to his Grandma, Dorothy, who lives with the family. "Grandma, we're leaving!"
Dan grabs only his wallet and keys and yells again to Dorothy, "We're leaving, we're leaving. Let's go!"
It's an 8-hour drive, but an eternity to Dan. He drums his fingers against the steering wheel, ignoring speed limits. When the tension gets to be too much, he reassures Dorothy.
"Grandma, he's going to be fine. We're going to take care of this."
"How sick is Andy?"
A few minutes into her 10:30 a.m. class, Peggy Kuhr, journalism professor, notices the absence. Andy Marso hasn't ever missed her reporting class, and he's been late only once, and that was for a story interview. Students say they've heard Andy has the flu, that he was sick the night before.
At lunchtime in the newsroom, rumors circle about a student having neeningitis.
"I heard it's one of the reporters."
"It's somebody on the advertising side."
"I heard it's one of the reporters." Michelle Burhenn, then-editor of the Kansan, remembers Andy had called the night before to tell her he wasn't feeling well enough to cover
urgent tone of his voice.
Gibson's spoken to Watkins, and he tells Burhenn meningitis is spread through close contact — kissing, sharing eating utensils or drinks. Andy's fellow Kansan staffers start to question Burhenn.
"Will I get sick?
Do you know how Andy got it?"
Burhenn tries to calm their fears, but she remembers a newsroom softball game a week before. The guys had filled the victory trophy with beer and everyone drank from it. Just a few days ago the Kansan staff, including Andy, went to a concert at The Bottleneck, and people tried each others' drinks, interchanging bottles, glasses and plastic cocktail cups.
About 5 p.m. Kuhr calls Burrenh to tell her Andy is critical. Kuhr warns her to prepare for the worst; she might need to tell the newsroom staff Andy has died.
At the same time, Gibson drives to the Med Center to be with the Marsos. His goal is to take the weight off their shoulders, allowing them to concentrate fully on Andy. He picks up a cell phone charger, makes food runs and calls Rev Vince Krische, the St. Lawrence Catholic Center priest, to talk with the family. Gibson and his wife, Joyce, try to console the Marsos in the waiting room until 10 p.m. They leave and return home to sleep with the phone next to the bed. The doctors say they're not sure if Andy will live through the night.

At 5:30 a.m., the phone rings — a jarring sound to Gibson, who knows there can't be another reason for a call so early.

But there is, and it's good news — a journalism colleague just had her baby.
Gibson can't go back to sleep. Like the Marsos, he continues to wait.

Dan Marso hasn't changed his clothes in days. He's wearing the same T-shirt, the same jeans he had on when he arrived, and he's beginning to stink. His parents and even the nurses make comments, so he asks Andy's friend Clay Britton if he'll go to Wal-Mart to buy him some clothes. Dan feels like he's on some kind of drug — he doesn't need sleep, food, a change of clothes, a shower. The nurses tell him to leave, go to the Friendship House nearby, where the family sleeps in shifts, but Dan responds that there no reason to leave and a damn good reason to stay.

Ginny Marso, Andy's mother, shares in a moment of downtime with Harry Marso, Andy's father, while Andy practices with his new prosthetic hand. Harry had just come back with a cup of Starbucks coffee, which the barista gave him for free because the coffee shop was closing down for the day.
The nurses tell him to leave, go to the Friendship House nearby, where the family sleeps in shifts, but Dan responds that there's no reason to leave and a damn good reason to stay.
During the first days in the ICU and after, when Andy's moved to the 5th floor Burn Unit, Ginny decides the family should take shifts — never leave Andy alone, always have a family member by his side. She can't control the fingers and toes shriveling, the flesh dying, but Ginny can provide Andy a warm, familiar hand next to his at all times.
"So, what's the plan?"
Ginny is on shift when Andy first comes off the ventilator. She sees her son's constant, positive attitude in the first words he whispers:
Dan takes the night shift, 2 to 8 a.m. He can't sleep anyway, and it's at these times Andy is the most alert. The drugs have worn off, there's less commotion, and more time to talk.
During his shift, Harry stares intently at the medical monitors. He panics when Andy's respiration rate jumps or his oxygen level falls. He wonders how anyone can survive with a heart beating that fast. Sometimes, while Andy sleeps, Harry touches the few pink patches on Andy's blackened hands
It's hard to act normal when Andy's fever spikes nightly at 104 degrees, his breathing accelerates to 40 breaths a minute, his heart races at 145 beats a minute, and he contracts pneumonia in his left lung.
him the paper; Josh, Andy's elder brother, challenges him to try things on his own, even if it's just ordering off a take-out menu. Ginny feeds him the needed 2,900 calories a day through protein-filled shakes and meals to help him gain his strength back. Dan's job is to keep his spirits up. He jokes, talks Minnesota Twins baseball and tries to bring a sense of normalcy to Andy's Burn Unit room.
Often, it's just a request.
"I need a glass of water."
"Dan, I need you to scratch this itch on my nose."
"Can you raise my feet up and help turn me over?"
It's humiliating for Andy, and Dan knows it. Andy has always been the watchful, protective big brother; the rational voice, his adviser, his best friend. Andy never asked for anything, and now he has to ask for everything. Dan tells him to just ask
— forget embarrassment, because it's not about dignity. He says Andy would do the same for him.
Each family member plays a role — Grandma fluffs Andy's pillow, rubs his sore shoulders and back; Harry reads

and thinks about the reperfusion he's read about, when blood flows back into blood vessels.
"A prosthesis is basically a tool," Matthew Luetke, Andy's prosthetist, said. Andy's prosthetic hand will allow him to complete everyday functions like brushing his teeth, grabbing a doorknob and picking up a glass of water. Because Andy's prosthetic only opens and closes, fine motor skills such as tying his shoes or picking up a penny are harder to do. Andy will undergo six weeks of training to use the hand.
happen if the blood doesn't flow back, what will distinguish the dead tissue from the living.
To physicians, it is the "the line of demarcation." To Andy, it is the line between the parts of his body he must lose and the parts he can keep.
Where to draw the line
Thomas Lawrence, section chief of plastic surgery at the Med Center, explains that the line of demarcation is the separation between the sensate tissue and the necrotic tissue—the line between what's alive and what's dead. Once that line is clear, Lawrence will know what he needs to amputate.
When Andy was first admitted Steven Simpson, his emergency care doctor, was optimistic. He thought Andy would lose a few fingertips, maybe one or two toes. Now, Lawrence thinks it could be whole fingers, maybe all of the fingers on his left hand, all of the toes, maybe the feet.
To prepare for amputations, the nurses, burn technicians and Lawrence remove Andy's dead skin through a process called "debridement" in a place called "the tank."
Debridlement requires cutting away the loose, black skin and tissue until Andy's hands and feet bleed, meaning there's still living tissue underneath. Because Andy's hands and feet are so shriveled, the tendons and nerves twisted together, it's hard to tell blackened skin from muscle or bone. The technicians spray water on his wounds while the doctor navigates Andy's skin, cutting it inside the tank — a six-foot long, seven-inch deep steel tub. The tank's only padding is a thin blue piece of foam covered with plastic wrap. The tub tilts down, and when Andy lies inside, naked except for a strategically placed washcloth that he says is hardly worth the effort, the bloody water washes down to a drain by his feet. The tub's tilt causes him to slide, and his feet hit the bottom of the tank. He cries out in pain and the nurses must pull him back to the top. He begs them to lay washclothes over his hands, because he can't bear to look at what's left, and he keeps his eyes straight up, away from his feet and arms.
The tank sessions last from one to two and a half hours, and Andy requires at least two doses of Fentanyl, a juiced-up brand of morphine, administered every hour, to make it through the pain. At first, nurses put a needle straight into the central venous line in his neck. In seconds the pain eases. But soon, Andy asks for more and more doses.
Andy pleads with nurses to "snow him," put him back into a coma so he can't feel anything. Instead the staff must wean him off the drug, first switching him to Fentanyl lozenges, then a Fentanyl lollipop. Andy calls it "morphine on a stick."
When Andy gets back from the tank, the burn techs re-bandage his hands. Early on, after a particularly grueling session, and before the tech can cover his hands, Andy stares at his claw-like fingers. They look like he's spent the last three weeks in a bath tub with black dye.
Staring at his hands, Andy bargains with God.
Staring at his hands, Andy bargains with God.
"OK, I'll make you a deal. Give me my hands back, and I'll devote the rest of my life to feeding poor kids."
A burn unit technician watching Andy staring so intently interrupts this silent plea.
"OK, I'll make you a deal. Give me my hands back, and I'll devote the rest of my life to feeding poor kids."
"Andy, you've gotta let them operate — see that right there? That's your tendon."
He points to the exposed ligament. Andy realizes it isn't going to get better. The blood won't flow back to his fingers; the black isn't turning pink.
He changes his prayer and asks God for strength instead.
Andy's family,schol hall friends,a crowd of reporters and cameramen and Chancellor Robert Hemenway all crowd into the Burn Unit waiting room so Hemenway can present Andy his college diploma.
Physically, Andy doesn't have the strength to attend his KU graduation, three and a half weeks after he fell ill. He was to carry the journalism flag, the honor for finishing first in his class, down the Campanile hill into Memorial Stadium. But after the pneumonia, the move back to the ventilator and the punishing tank sessions, it's clear walking the Hill won't happen.
Bittersweet graduation
In Andy, Ellis sees someone like her, young, just starting out, and she wonders how Andy — always her "Andy-man" — can stay so positive, how he faces the pain.
Dan stands in for his brother, carrying the flag, while Ginny and Harry plan a hospital commencement party.
Before the ceremony, Jeny Ellis, a 24-year-old burn unit technician, reassures Andy she'll rescue him if the attention gets too intense.
"Andy-man, if you start getting tired or upset, just tell us and we'll get you outta there."
Hemenway hands Andy his diploma and WHAM, 10 reporters compete to ask him questions. Andy panics, starts to read his short statement
but starts to break down. It's too much at once, too many people in too small a space. His tears stream and the cameras roll. Dan and Jeny wheel! Andy back to his room where he, Dan, Jeny and three other nurses cry together, away from the crowd. Jeny kneels down beside Andy's wheelchair.
"but this is the first time you've had four girls cry with you, Andy-man."
141 days of endless summer
Andy spends May through the second week of September, 141 days, in a hospital bed, waiting between surgeries, physical training, psychologists' visits and the highlight moments — visitors. Family, friends and folks who see Andy's face on T.V., or read his story in the paper, send cards, flowers, donations and moral support. Each day
dozens of people post encouraging words on the Web site Ginny arranged for Andy, www.caring-bridge.com/mn/marso. The site is a means of release for her, and also a convenient way to post medical updates immediately.
Andy's first amputation is June 7—the toes and balls of his feet. The days before surgery he'll still spiking fevers, sweat soaking his sheets and hospital gown. At night he has nightmares the surgeons will cut too much.
Dr. Lawrence lays out the plan. After the amputations on his fingers, Lawrence needs to graft skin from Andy's thigh to the tops of his hands. To do that, Andy needs at least a thin base layer of skin where he has only mangled tendons, muscle and bone. To grow that skin, Lawrence sews each of Andy's hands — one at a time, for three to four weeks — into the wall of Andy's abdomen, where his body can generate enough new flesh for the thigh skin grafts to adhere.
After the procedure, and again in the tank, Andy looks down to his stomach. His hand is "pouched" and Andy struggles to describe the warm, moist feel of his hand sewn inside his body. He can see where his wrist connects to the fist-sized bulge of his right hand just below the surface of his abdominal skin. A pinkish-shaded goo leaks out of the incision.
Andy must lie still in bed while his hands heal in the pouch, and he passes the hours watching "The Price is Right" with Grandma, Minnesota Timberwolves games with Harry, Josh, and Dan, and "Jeopardy!" with Ginny. They wonder when Ken Jennings's "Jeopardy!" winning streak will end.
Andy wonders when the surgeries will end, when he'll finally be able to go outside and feel fresh air on his skin.
Until that day comes, the burn unit staff embraces the Marsos. Bob Hafner, a burn unit nurse, greets Andy each morning with a joke, saving the dirty ones for when Ginny and Harry aren't around. He bakes Andy protein-rich pans of tiramisu and swaps recipes with Ginny, who's looking for any kind of edible remedy to bring Andy's high fevers down, and restore the 25 pounds he's lost since April.
THE LAWRENCE EASTERN BOOK COMPANY
Andy Marso was able to do what several hundred other people did on Tuesday at the Robert J. Dole Institute of Politics. He waited in line for Bob Dole's signature on his copy of "One Soldier's Story" after listening to Dole's speech.
During his daily bandage changes, Jeny puts in an Oldies CD, and in minutes they're singing the words and Jeny's dancing to the music, looking like a grooving smurf in her blue hospital gown and hat and orange mask. Andy can't help but laugh and smile, even though today is a tank day.
Others give him hope for the future. Bonnie Henrickson, Kansas women's basketball coach, stops by to tell him about a former player who had bacterial meningitis, lost both arms and legs, yet leads a full life, finishing college and assistant coaching. Keith Langford, men's basketball player, visits Andy and tells him, "I'm a fan of yours." Matt Bellomo, a CPA in Kansas City, reads Andy's story in The Kansas City Star, and shares his story

Andy's story worth knowing
Andy Marso was my first friend at the Kansan. As a reporter who knew his way around, he'd flash me a smile when I awkwardly walked into the newsroom. He'd wave "hi" on campus, tell jokes at the gym, and though I didn't know anyone, he persuaded me to go to my first Kansan party, and met me a few blocks away, so I wouldn't walk in alone.
Like a lot of our staff, I was working in the newsroom the Wednesday I heard Andy had bacterial meningitis, and it took seconds before I pulled up a Google search on the disease. I remembered hearing about meningitis at New Student Orientation, but I didn't know how the illness was spread or whether it was serious. I did remember sharing drinks at a Jayplay Live concert during the weekend, and that Andy was there, but I couldn't remember if I'd tried his beer that he'd told me tasted great.
The next morning I went to Watkins to receive the meningitis vaccine. I was one of 71 people who were vaccinated at the health center from April 28 to May 31, 2004. Three people were vaccinated during the same time period the previous year.
same time period. The World Health Organization reports that between 10 to 25 percent of the population carry meningitis bacteria safety in their mouth and throat. For whatever reason, these people are immune to the disease. But, the carriers can pass the bacteria to other people by close contact — sharing eating utensils, drinks, a toothbrush or a cigarette. Since Andy fell ill, I've stopped myself from sipping a friend's beer or drinking without a straw at a restaurant.
Andy said he was not aware that college students living in shared housing were six times more likely to contract meningitis. Starting Aug. 1, the University will require that all students in residence halls, scholarship halls and jayhawker Towers receive the meningitis vaccine, or sign a waiver saying they've been informed about the disease and have chosen not to be immunized.
I think every student should know about Andy's experience with meningitis, but hearing and writing the details of the past year was harder than I could ever have imagined. Some moments, I had to stop writing, drop the notebook and listen as a friend and not a journalist. I did worry our friendship would conflict with my role as a reporter, but someone had to write this important story about a meningitis victim who just happened to be a Kansan journalist. I came to realize that knowing Andy was an asset, not a liability, and that this experience was best shared with a friend. I hope through reading his account we all realize we're participating in the same reverse lottery Andy lost, and that any of us could have been him.
During the summer, I visited Andy in the hospital and he greeted me with the same smile, even while facing hand and feet amputations, needles, pills, fevers and aches and the inevitable question: "Why me?" Leaving the visits, I asked it, too. Why Andy? Why not me, any of us? Andy told me later that he'd started to ask a different question. "Why not me?" He asks it, not just because he has a relentless optimistic outlook, but also because he wants to turn his nightmare into an opportunity to educate others about the vaccine, and possibly save lives.
Much has happened and much has changed for Andy in the year since his illness. But what I learned in listening and writing his story is this: He is the same Andy who walked me to the Kansan party.
About meningitis bacteria and vaccination
What is meningitis?
There are two types of meningitis, viral and bacterial. Viral meningitis is a common but rarely serious infection of the fluids in the brain and spinal cord. The illness is mild and usually clears up within a week. Bacterial meningitis, and a strand within it, meningococcal meningitis, is a potentially fatal infection of the fluids in the brain and spinal cord, and can result in permanent brain damage, hearing loss, learning disability, limb amputation, kidney failure or death.
How is it spread?
>
Meningococcal meningitis is transmitted through direct contact with an infected person sharing cigarettes or drinking glasses or through intimate contact such as kissing.
How many people die?
Meningococcal meningitis infects about 3,000 Americans each year and is responsible for about 300 deaths annually. It is estimated that 100 to 125 cases of meningococcal disease occur annually on college campuses and five to 15 students die as a result.
Source: American College Health Association
The Watkins vaccine
The current vaccine costs $73 and lasts three to four years. A new vaccine will be available Aug. 1, will cost $33 and lasts eight years.

CORPORATOCRACY
Economy may actually need your help, conservatives
To: Josh Steward, chairman of the KU College Republicans
Re: Conservatives + economy = better
Dear Josh,
---
STEPHEN SHUPE
sshupe@kansan.com
to the editor assignment is why conservatives are better for the economy." Naturally, I jumped at the opportunity to complete this assignment. Conservatives are better for the economy in so many ways.
While scanning the Web site of your wonderful organization, I noticed the following entry: "This weeks" (sic) letter
But before I get into the myriad reasons why this is true, allow me first to say what an incredibly handsome young man you are. That mug shot you have posted at wwwku.edu/~kucr/ hard, you, blushing, You are.
had me blushing. You are princely, sir. Sheer royalty.
Reason #1
princely, s.t. street royalty.
Now, back to my assignment:
Why are conservatives better for the economy?
Conservatives support deregulation. This leaves corporations answerable to no one, allowing them to maximize profits. Thanks to deregulation, Nike CEO Phil Knight can take full advantage of Vietnam's child labor force. According to The Wall Street Journal, Knight's pint-sized shoemakers are victims of sexual and physical abuse, low wages and exorbitant quotas. It's like we're fighting the Vietnam War all over again! Other perks include: Nike gets a profit, Americans get $150 shoes and the economy thrives.
United States will stay in a perpetual state of war. War is great for the economy! Companies such as Bechtel, Halliburton and Lockheed Martin made billions of dollars in war profits last year. Investors, primarily the top 1 percent of the country that owns 50 percent of the stock
All must be sacrificed for the almighty dollar, per George Orwell's thesis: "If you want a vision of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face forever."
Conservatives oppose labor movements. By beating back pro-labor policies, conservatives can ensure the minimum wage will forever remain at $5.15 an hour. A disproportionate number of minorities would benefit from a wage increase. The Economic Policy Institute found that the wage increase in 1997 resulted in the lowest unemployment and poverty rates in decades. To maintain white primacy in the 21st Century, corporate handouts and labor suppression must continue. Better to leave the workers in a race to the bottom than succumb to socialist giveaways.
Reason #2
Conservatives believe in global free markets. With free markets, multinational companies can gobble up resources and profits throughout the world. This upsets people and guarantees the
Reason #3
market, cleaned up and hired contractors to build more mansions, which grew the economy even more.
Reason #4
Reason **44**
Conservatives love freedom. This includes the freedom to prop up compliant military dictators, the freedom to crush populist movements and the freedom to build weapons of mass destruction. These freedoms serve to expand the
American empire, which serves to redistribute money to wealthy Americans, who've always served as a benevolent force in our economy. As they say, "Freedom ain't free." All must be sacrificed for the almighty dollar, per George Orwell's thesis: "If you want a vision of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face - forever."
Reason #5
Conservatives hate taxes. Lower taxes mean less money for government spending on health, education and daycare
— all the safety nets. Because we're paying them only $5.15 an hour, and because we're taking away the safety nets, workers have no choice but to give up public services to private investors in a last-ditch effort to save their children and elderly parents from certain death. It's a brilliant plan. The money flows into the private sector and Wall Street explodes.
I'd continue my little ruse, Josh, but I'm afraid of breathing fire through my mouth. Honestly, this is moderate rhetoric compared to real Republicans, who refer to Venezuelan president Hugo Chavez as a "Marxist thug" because he won't hand over his economy to American corporations. Take a stroll through the streets of Harlem or take a boat ride up the Saigon River. You might see that the economic policies of America in general and your party in particular threaten to stamp out the light of the world.
Kisses.
Stephen

▼ LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Religious leaders, Christians, Catholics, warmly receive pope
After reading Ms. Souza's article for the Kansan Editorial board yesterday on the election of Pope Benedict XVI, I wish to respond with a few comments.
First, Ms. Souza claims that Benedict "will reverse the effects [of Vatican II] that Pope John XXIII had hoped to see." Few realize, however, that the then 38-year-old Joseph Ratzinger, still just a priest, was invited to the Second Vatican Council as one of the principal theologians. His input contributed greatly to the drafting of several documents, including those involving ecumenism and religious liberty. Also the former Cardinal Ratzinger was one of the strongest critics of the priestly sexual abuse in the United States, condemning in harsh language the behavior of all guilty parties — including bishops.
Ms. Souza goes on to imply that Benedict XVI, unlike John Paul II, is "opposed to birth control, women's ordination, and ecumenism among countries and religions." This analysis is incorrect. It was John Paul II who first championed
I conclude with this: the pope, and the Church, is entrusted with doctrines that are fundamentally unchangeable. No pope in history has ever contradicted them, and never will. In his papacy, we can expect Benedict XVI to do just that: defend the truth.
the cause of life by opposing all forms of artificial contraception, and it was after his input that Pope Paul VI vetoes the flawed resolution allowing it. John Paul II also firmly silenced all debate concerning women's ordination, having written "the Church has no authority whatsoever to confer priestly ordination on women," according to Ordination Sacerdotalis, May 22, 1994.
Concerning ecumenism, the election of Benedict XVI has been warmly received by Jewish rabbis, leaders of Islamic states and nearly every other Christian denomination, including the Archbishop of Canterbury. In a recent ABCNews Poll released today, 80 percent of Catholics polled approve of his election

Parking permit increase makes sense for better lots
PETER MURRAY
I'm sure you've heard the phrase "there's no such thing as free parking" — please trust me when I tell you it's true. I know you would expect to hear this from someone in my position, but consider this: You do pay for parking,
DONNA HULTINE opinion@kansan.com
directly or indirectly, anywhere you leave your car.
The direct cases are of course obvious, you pay to park at a Chief's game, Worlds of Fun and the KU campus. Indirectly, you pay for parking with the products you buy at a grocery store or mall and you pay for parking with your monthly rent check. In these cases the cost to maintain
rent check. In these close parking lots is passed on to you in the prices you pay for products and services.
The decision to raise parking permit rates at the University of Kansas is never made lightly, as evidenced by our history of four- and five-year spans between rate increases. Faculty, staff and students on the parking commission, along with University administration, have spent many hours poring over the recently completed consultant report, and one conclusion that many of us
The decision to raise parking permit rates at the University of Kansas is never made lightly, as evidenced by our history of four- and five-year spans between rate increases.
reached before reading the result was that even if we were only to address the condition of existing parking lots, a rate increase would be required.
the more we will pay.
The pavement study within the report actually told us that the estimated cost to restore the current parking space inventory is more than $4 million in 2004 dollars. With oil prices continuing to climb, driving up the cost of asphalt, the picture only gets worse. It would be irresponsible for the Parking Department to allow existing parking lots to continue to decline, as the longer we wait
The consultant report provided us with many commonsense solutions to existing parking problems. Some suggestions will require a major shift in the current parking culture on campus and will take time and strategic planning to implement.
Other suggestions were relatively easier to begin to implement. We currently have a popular Park and Ride option that is overflowing its home in the Lied Center parking lot. Next year's rate increase will allow us to expand this program in a larger location, freeing up the Lied Center parking lot for daytime programming and a planned building expansion. A new parking lot
can run anywhere from $3,500 to $5,000 per space depending on the site. At 1,500 to 2,000 spaces, this is a major commitment to improving parking and traffic on campus.
An increase in parking permit rates ensures that existing parking lots will be rescued and new parking added where possible. People will make tough decisions about how they get to campus, perhaps prompting more bus usage, bicycle riding or ride sharing. This will make parking better in the long run.
The Parking Department is completely user-supported and must operate like a business.
Everything associated with campus parking lots is paid for in part with permit dollars, from lighting to snow removal.
The bottom line must ensure that we meet our fiscal commitments. Like any business, costs are passed along to the customer base. While you will pay for this directly, you will get a better parking system in the end.

ANDY MARSO
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 5A
with Andy. Matt lost both feet and his fingertips to bacterial meningitis when he was 18, and talks about his marriage, the baby on the way and his thriving business. He tells Andy there's a life worth living once this waking hell is over.
That hell includes a power outage that deflates Andy's circulating air bed down to a hard metal slab, a leaking cooling blanket that leaves his just-bandaged skin grafts soaked in water, and late in the summer, a sudden infection that enters Andy's central venous line, leaving him him gasping for breath, shaking so hard the whole bed moves. He's terrified he has meningitis all over again.
He endures all of this, and his reward comes Sept. 16, when he finally leaves the hospital, and joins Ginny, Harry, and Dorothy at an apartment near the Med Center.
"Let me try it myself"
Andy's left the hospital with toe-less rounded stubs for feet andstitched nubs as hands. The nubs have a swatch of thick, meatythigh skin on the tops, with criss-crossing scar tissue on the bottoms that run up Andy's arms. His surgeons have fashioned a smallthumb-like nub on his left hand,a little over an inch long and thick.
Ginny is awed by her son's relentlessly positive attitude, and she knows she must let him use it. Somehow he manages to pull a shirt over his head, scrub shampoo on his hair in the shower and lather with a loofah he can twist around his wrist.
He has trouble with doorknobs. He can grip the salt slimshaker, but not the fat red-p pepper shaker. The ligaments in his wrist are stiff, and rotating his palms is difficult. At times, he closes his eyes and feels his fingers still there, pushed back underneath the nubs, still aching. He opens his eyes and curses the phantom pain.
Three times a week he returns to the Med Center for occupational and physical therapy, and the hour drags on forever as Andy practices picking up wooden puzzle pieces
or twisting loose screws and bolts. It's tedious and mind numbing, but he's starting to rotate his wrists more, and the remaining thumb is becoming more of a useful tool rather than excess tissue.
He's writing again, too. Matt Tait, Andy's sports editor at The Sentinel, tells him to jump back in and write as often as he can. Tait never had to coddle Andy, and since the illness, nothing changed. Andy writes a half dozen stories.
watching chair by bleachers. Tait receives them on time. and.
ANDY
and they're
just as solid as before his illness. At first Tait thinks Andy dictates the stories to Ginny, but Andy tells him he plucks out each letter with his thumb.
Another week brings another milestone. Andy and Clay go to a movie, his first time out without his parents. With his stumps nestled inside four-inch slanted boots that put his feet on point, Andy climbs the three flights of stairs to see the apartment he would have moved into after graduation. In late October, Watkins doctor Leah Luckeroth holds a celebratory BBQ, and the press coverage drives donations to the Andy Marso Fund. Andy's medical bill is now approaching $3 million.
Andy faces another crucial decision for his feet. He's had eight surgeries so far, and he'll do anything to avoid more amputations, but with the damaged tissue remaining, he has three choices: Do nothing, and be confined to a wheelchair and occasionally walk on clunky orthopedic boots; undergo surgery and don an erector-set-like metal frame on each foot that will require six months of therapy and little guarantee he'll run again; or amputate his legs six inches below the knee, a one-time surgery that offers the quickest recovery time and an opportunity for Andy to run with the help of prostheses.
Andy imagines playing basketball. With the amputations, he could run in a pickup game in a few months. But he looks at his legs, remembers the nightmares about surgeons cutting too much.
The heavy plastic prosthetic on Andy's wrist makes positioning over the banana harder the second time around. He estimates how much to flex his
and tells Craig Horton, his foot surgeon, he wants to try the frames. Horton's optimistic the frames and therapy work, but he's also brutally honest with Andy. If they try the frames, and it doesn't work, he can always cut higher.

But he's almost done. He only needs to switch off the hand, let the fingers release and drop the fruit to the table once more.
The banana tastes good, but it's not about flavor. It's about struggling five minutes to do it without help.
For what it represents, this is the best banana Andy Marso has ever tasted.
Coming out of the tunnel
Sunnington.
Andy's Feb. 28 surgery on his left foot, his ninth in as many months, leaves him with 12 metal rods securing his foot into a pressured 90-degree angle. The rods connect to a black plastic frame that Ginny says could be leFTover from the Spanish Inquisition, but it's the only way to pull Andy's atrophied tendons to a flat-footed position, giving him a chance to walk in real shoes again.
Horton tells Andy he'll spend five to six weeks in this frame, then he'll switch the left foot to a brace and put the right foot in a similar, erector-set-like frame. For Andy, it means three months confined to his wheelchair.
It's a tradeoff he gladly takes for the chance to keep what is left of his feet. Stuck in this wheelchair, he's left to test what he can do with one thumb and what remains of his hands. He grips his black gloves with his
teeth, tugs the material over his nubs, and pulls the Velcro strip across his wrist with his mouth.
Without fingers, this is how you improvise.
Some movements Andy just can't work around. The air-quotes — two extended fingers on each hand he always put around sarcastic words — are gone from his jokes. He tries to put extra inflection in his tone, but it doesn't produce the same effect. When he feels like giving someone the finger, even in jest, he's left searching for a less shocking equivalent. Ginny Marso mourns a future loss — when Andy's first child is unable to wrap his or her hand around Andy's fingers.
Andy's ordeal is enough to make anyone, even devout Catholics like the Marsos, for sake faith and question their God. But Andy says he couldn't have made it this far without his belief this happened for a reason, that God has a plan, and all of this — the pain-filled nights, the amputations, but also the outpouring of support — will make him stronger, and possibly more whole than before.
He doesn't dwell on how this happened to him — a sip off a dirty glass in Pearson Hall, a shared beer at the concert the weekend before the Basehor softball game — it doesn't matter now.
Now, he looks forward. His last surgery for the frame on his right foot is this Monday. Six weeks later, he should be free of the two-pound burden, with both feet in braces, and ready to go into intensive rehabilitation.
In the meantime, he has a graduation speech to prepare. Andy is the School of Journalism's commencement speaker. He smiles when asked what he'll say, and assures his J-school buddies he's going to keep it short. After graduation, he'll return to Minnesota, and eventually come back to Kansas City, maybe write for The Sentinel again, and pick up the career and life meningitis put on hold one year ago today.

banana is manageable, with this substitute hand, but that's all the prosthetic is — a substitute, a $17,000 tool — and hardly a replacement. He pulls his left nub out of the cuff, his skin dusted white with baby powder that makes the prosthetic's rough interior more bearable. Wearing the hand is like wearing a mitten, and Andy can't quite get used to the feeling. Eventually, when prototypes become available, he wants to buy a neural-powered prosthetic, a hand that responds to his thoughts, not just his muscles
Since the day he blearily awoke in his schol hall bed, Andy Marso says he's spanned
three separate lives — a life before meningitis, a life battling the illness and surviving amputations during 141 days in a hospital, and his life now. Andy was content with the first life, horrified by the second, and today, he's determined to take on the third.
He admits it's a challenge. This life means figuring out how to wash your hair without fingers, how to balance and walk without toes, even how to peel a banana. But don't tell him he's courageous; to Andy, it's all just part of the plan.

KANSAN SENIOR SWIPTERWRIER
The Kansas baseball team finished its stint at the first-ever Best of the Midwest Tournament by defeating Sacramento State 12-5 yesterday afternoon.
The game, at Community America Ballpark, was less exciting than the Jayhawks' tournament debut, a 12-11 comeback-victory against New Mexico State. However, coach Ritch Price said the performance gave him high hopes for the rest of the Big 12 Conference season, which will resume this weekend.
"I was really hoping we'd get on a roll before the weekend," he said.
"Now we just have to maintain it."
Contributions from two freshmen, third baseman Erik Morrison and designated hitter John Allman, added to the Jayhawks' offensive production from the previous night.
"They're head and shoulders above where they were two months ago." Price said. "And in the next month, they can make that same kind of progress."
Allman, who leads the team in batting average, hit his first career home run in the second inning, and
set the score at 3-1. He said players had teased him about being a "singles guy," and said he was glad to get that monkey off his back.
His first home run was almost not; the ball barely cleared the low fence in right field.
"The wind helped a little," he said. "I hit it well, but the wind helped. It felt good off the bat."
By that time, the Jayhawks had already established the ability to move runners with bunts and sacrifice flies. In the first inning, junior outfielder Matt Baty and junior shortstop Ritchie Price hit back-to-back doubles. Baty scored, and sacrifices by the next two batters sent Ritchie Price home.
"We're really getting in a rhythm offensively," Ritchie Price said. "We hit well last week and we're hitting
well this week."
Junior outfielder A.J. Van Slyke hit his team-leading ninth home run of the season, a two-run hit, in the bottom of the third inning. But it was Kansas' singles, bunts and sacrifices that produced an easy victory.
After two scoreless innings, junior outfielder Gus Milner singled off new pitcher Mick Joyce, leading off the bottom of the sixth. Senior catcher Sean Richardson's sacrifice bunt moved Milner to second, and junior first baseman Jared Schweitzer, whose hitting streak ended at 15 games, popped up as Milner progressed to third.
The Jayhawks followed with three hits, scoring twice more. They left two on base that inning and

Pitchers should hear a 'crack'
You've seen it before when you're watching a Major League Baseball game. A batter rips a liner directly back at the pitcher and hits him.
Sometimes it's ugly, with the pitcher holding his face as blood pours from it. But the bats used in these Major League Baseball games are wooden. What if the pitcher was hit with a ball off the barrel of a metal bat?
It has been fatal in some cases throughout the country, from the collegiate ranks down to Little League.
According to an article in the Montana Standard, an American Legion ball player died after being struck in the head by a line drive off a metal bat. The Montana State Legislature then tried to ban metal bats.
It is time for college baseball and the NCAA to get their acts together, and stop using metal bats.
A pitcher lying motionless on the ground is not a wanted scene in Hoglund Ballpark.
By allowing college athletes to use metal bats, pitchers are being set up for disaster.
There is little time for pitchers to react to liners coming back at them. The ball is hit back faster than it's pitched, potentially at 120 mph.

Leadership role falls on Moody
They saw his skinny frame and heard about how he swallowed goldfish to motivate his teammates and assumed he was only on the team because he grew up in the same town as then-coach Roy Williams.
When Christian Moody was invited to walk on to the University of Kansas men's basketball team, fans didn't expect much out of him.
But the junior forward has destroyed that image since his freshman season.
The Asheville, N.C., native did everything his coaches asked and is now being awarded an athletic scholarship, which was made available because of freshman Alex Galindo's transfer.
He cracked the Jayhawk starting lineup while maintaining a near-perfect college GPA and played so well that CBS commentator Billy Packer called him the greatest walk-on in college basketball history.
During his rise to the top, Moody's attitude never changed. He still has a squeaky-clean image and doesn't ask—or want—to be the center of attention.
With the loss of four graduating seniors, next year's team is going to be young, especially at the forward position, and Moody will be the only senior with significant starting experience. The other incoming seniors, guards Jeff Hawkins and Stephen Vinson and forward Moulaye Niang, have played sparingly during their careers.
Moody has done more than anyone expected, but being a solid walk-on is no longer enough. Kansas coach Bill Self told Moody that he was raising the bar even higher for next year.
That may have to change
your seniors," he said. "They have a big responsibility, whether they're playing or not, and I want to take that leadership role on."
Moody said he would learn to inspire his teammates when they were frustrated and challenge them when they lacked effort.
Moody said becoming a leader would be a difficult task, but he has done it before.
"My senior year in high school, I tried to do the same thing," he said. "Being a senior comes with a totally different mind set. You know you're the oldest and have to be a leader."
Moody's father, Mark Moody, remembered the leadership role his son took during high school and said he excelled.
His high school team hovered around a .500 record during Christian Moody's junior year, but as a senior he led his team to the state semifinals before losing to the eventual state champions.
Mark Moody said Christian did a great job all year, averaging 12.8 points per game. But he remembered one play above the rest.
"In the third round of the playoffs, his team was down by nine with two minutes to go, and Christian led the comeback," Mark Moody said.
"My high school coach once told me you're only as good as
"He was playing against a 6 (foot) 9 kid who went on to play Division I basketball, and Christian dunked on him with 10 seconds to go to tie the game," he said. "He made several shots in overtime, but that was the key moment in that game. He made this ridiculous baseline move that no one expected, and just dunked on this guy."
The biggest difference between leading in high school and college will be talent. Christian Moody was one of the best players on his high school team, and everyone already looked up to him. At Kansas, he has to compete with past seniors that led teams to Final Fours.
"Our past seniors were the main guys on the floor. It's almost like their leadership was apparent without them having to say anything," he said. "My freshman year, we had two all Americans. This year, we had some amazing players that won some awards. That's going to be
"I don't think I've gotten on anyone in an angry way. That might need to change. If I have to get in somebody's face, then I'll do that"
Christian Moody Junior forward
tough for me to live up to, because I don't have trophies hanging on the wall."
To develop that unspoken leadership role, Christian Moody said he would need to have a more hands-on approach and would need to be more vocal. Even if it means getting angry at a teammate, which he said had never happened.
"I don't think I've gotten on anyone in an angry way." Moody said. "That might need to change. If I have to get in somebody's face, then I'll do that."
Mark Moody said his son would have no problem becoming more vocal with his teammates because he won his high school's spirit award.
"He always went to events like football and baseball games and got the crowd fired up." Mark Moody said. "He didn't paint his body or anything like that, but he just had this personality that inspired people."
With all the pressure on Christian Moody to break away from his walk-on image and to become the leader of a team like Kansas, you might think he would dedicate his entire summer to the task. But other than a few meetings with Self, he said he wasn't going to do much to develop leadership skills. He said he already had them.
"I'm not worried about it," he said. "I think I've got it in me."

Cardinals defeat Brewers Grudzielanek hits for cycle
BY R.B. FALLSTROM THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
St. Louis Cardinals' Mark Grudzielanek heads for first after hitting a triple in the sixth inning against the Milwaukee Brewers yesterday at Busch Stadium in St. Louis. Grudzielanek hit for the cycle in his first four at-bats.
ST. LOUIS — Even after getting a home run single and double in his first three at-bats, Mark Grudzielanek wasn't thinking about hitting for the cycle. Then teammate Albert Pujols began rooting him on.
"He was saying 'You've got to do it, you've got to do it, you've got to go for it,'" Grudzielanek said after he helped the St. Louis Cardinals who defeated the Milwaukee Brewers 6-3 yesterday. "I didn't think the opportunity would come, but it sure did. It's weird how it happens."
Grudzielanek became the first Cardinals player to hit for the cycle in nine seasons and Chris Carpenter equaled his career best with 12 strikeouts for St. Louis, which has won 11 of 12.
Jim Edmonds had two RBI for the Cardinals, who at 14-5 are off to their best start since the 1968 team opened with that record. The first four in the batting order were 7-for-9 in the first four innings against Victor Santos (1-1) and built a 5-0 lead.
The Cardinals won their fifth straight over the Brewers, and their current streak began with a
three-game sweep at Milwaukee April 15-17. It was the first game for St. Louis since closer Jason Isringhausen, went on the 15-day disabled list with a strained right abdomen muscle.
"The Cards have had success against everybody this year, not just us," the Brewers' Geoff Jenkins said. "You have to be on top of your game."
Julian Tavarez, who entered the season with 17 career saves — four last year, struck out the side in the ninth for his first save.
But he made it clear he wanted to hold the job for Isringhaus.
"I know I can't get too comfortable out there," Tavares said. "It belongs to the big man, Jason, one of the best closers in the game. And I hope he can come back soon."
can come back soon.
Grudzielanek, who batted in the No. 1 spot for the second time this year, hit the second leadoff homer of his career and kick-started a three-run first. He singled and scored in the second, had an RBI double in the fourth and tripled off Jorge De La Rosa in the sixth.
Grudzieleank might have been the least likely Cardinals player to hit for the cycle: He entered Wednesday's game with just two triples in 1,333 at-bats over the past four seasons.

Nebraska also won the Fairway Club Invitational in September at the Firethorn Golf Club in Lincoln, Neb. Nebraska won the tournament, its first of the season, by
10 strokes over Southern Mississippi. Junior Judd Cornell was the Huskers' top performer, finishing second overall with a total score of 222. good for 9-over-par.
The Huskers did have a poor performance on April 12 at the Indian Golf Classic in Jonesboro, Ark. They finished the tournament, which was their last of the regular season, in 14th place in a 15-team field. Though the Huskers finished low in the standings, the event was shortened by two rounds, because of rain. The first two rounds of play were washed out on Monday, making the tournament only an 18-hole event. Cornell was the low scorer for Nebraska with a 1-under-par 71.
The Huskers will have their work cut out for them this

Congress investigates gridiron steroid use
▼ NFL
BY HOWARD FENDRICH THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — A law establishing uniform drug-testing rules for major U.S. sports would be a mistake, NFL commissioner Paul Tagliabue told Congress yesterday.
"We don't feel that there is rampant cheating in our sport," Tagliabue told the House Government Reform Committee.
"How is the average American supposed to look at the size, strength and speed of today's NFL linebackers and not conclude that they might be taking performance-enhancing drugs?" asked chairman Tom Davis, R-Va.
Tagliabue countered: "We're certainly not going to jump to the conclusion that because we have larger athletes today, there is increased steroid use in the National Football League. I think it's nonsense."
On the whole, congressmen generally praised the NFL for its cooperation, with more than one calling yesterday's session a "breath of fresh air" compared to Major League Baseball's hearing.
Still, the committee didn't get a direct answer as to how widespread steroid use might be in the NFL. Lawmakers tried to gauge that level in baseball on March 17, when an 11-hour hearing featured Mark McGwire, Jose Canseco and other past and current stars.
How is the average American supposed to look at the size, strength and speed of today's NFL linebackers and not conclude that they might be taking performance-enhancing drugs?"

pro football players use steroids today. Courson said: "That would be very hard for me to determine. I've been out of the game for 20 years."
Even a congressman pointed out the contrast in the witness lists.
Later, when asked by ranking Democrat Henry Waxman of California what percentage of
"If this committee is serious about investigating steroid use among football players today, well, we should probably start by talking to some of today's football players," Massachusetts Democrat Stephen Lynch said.
Davis promised more hearings and said the NBA would be next. He said he, Waxman and Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., were working on legislation that would put sports' banned substance lists and testing protocols under the auspices of the White House drug czar, but might leave penalties up to the leagues.

Honda favors Brit for Toyko race
MOTEGI, Japan — Dan Wheldon's first IndyCar Series victory came last year in Japan — and it was a great relief for host Honda.
The victory by Wheldon at the 2004 Indy Japan 300 in a Honda-powered car was also the first for the Japanese manufacturer on its home track after six unsuccessful tries.
Wheldon, a 26-year-old Englishman, will be among the favorites for Saturday's IRL race at the track Honda built north of Tokyo.
In addition to overcoming jet lag, Wheldon said he also will have to overcome the unique challenge of the 1.5-mile Motegi oval.
"What makes it challenging is that one end is open and one end is pretty tight," Wheldon said yesterday.

Wanted: new poll for BCS formula
PHOENIX — The Bowl Championship Series is trying to establish a new poll to help determine teams competing for the national championship.
At their meeting Tuesday, BCS member athletic directors made it clear that they preferred starting a new poll to replace The Associated Press rankings,rather than radically changing their formula. BCS coordinator Kevin Weiberg said.
"We continue to look at a poll that would potentially include a panel of voters that would be comprised of individuals who have had experience with the sport, either as administrators, coaches, perhaps former players, things of that kind. That's where we're putting most of our focus at this point," said Weiberg, the Big 12 commissioner.

Jayhawks face Hoosiers, Boilermakers, recognize strengths and weaknesses

The Big 12 conference champion Kansas soccer team competed in two spring exhibition games in Indiana last weekend.
The team's first stop was in Indianapolis on Saturday where the Jayhawks flew past the Purdue Boilermakers, 3-0. Junior forward Caroline Smith, sophomore forward Lacey Novak, and Jenifer Thomas, a transfer player from Texas Tech, scored the goals for the Jayhawks.
On Sunday, the Jayhawks traveled to Bloomington, Ind., and took on the Indiana Hoosiers. There the Jayhawks suffered their first defeat of the exhibition season, 2-0.
Overall, the Jayhawks are 2-1 in spring play. After three games the team is finding out what kinks to work out before next season.

The starters added two more runs in the bottom of the seventh, and the reserves continued to move runners in the eighth inning, adding the final three scores.
Every player in the Kansas dugout except senior infielder Andy Scholl and senior catcher Mike Bessolo batted. Bessolo saw the field in the top of the ninth. Ritchie Price and freshman second baseman Ryne Price were the only starters who took the field in the top of the ninth inning.

death for a pitcher, but players have also suffered heart attacks after getting hit in the chest.
A pitcher standing on the mound, arms extended, after throwing a pitch is completely vulnerable. There is little or nothing a pitcher can do to protect himself.
A study published in the Official Journal of the American College of Sports Medicine showed that a ball coming off a metal bat has a much higher velocity than a ball coming off a wooden bat.
Using wooden bats for collegiate games would also help players prepare for the professional ranks.
After last season Kansas baseball players Matt Tribble, Ryan Baty and
Travis Metcalf were all drafted by major league clubs, and immediately joined their minor league affiliates.
There certainly was a transition period for them to adjust from using a metal bat each day. Using wooden bats helps give the college baseball players the opportunity to improve their skills using the same equipment professionals use.
Many collegiate players participate in wooden bat leagues during the summer to prepare on their own. But why not prepare them for the best competition while they are playing collegiate games?
It would provide a better game at the professional level as they use the same equipment for a long period of time.
However, players will eventually adjust and offensive output will remain high.
The offensive productivity certainly would drop in the college game.
Some Little League organizations have seen the problems of using metal bats, and are now converting to wooden-bat-only leagues.
Chelmsford, Mass., banned all metal bat use for the 2004 season.
It's a step in the right direction, but more still needs to be done. Getting the NCAA to sign on to ban the use of metal bats certainly would show others that this is a very serious matter.
Instead of hearing the 'ping' that is made when a metal bat makes contact with a ball, change it to the 'crack' of a wooden bat.
It makes sense and it will save lives.

FUNDRAISING
Hard up for money
Student groups frustrated with Student Senate allocations
BY ESTUARDO GARCIA
egarcia@kansan.com
EKANSAN STAFF WRITER
Staying up all night cleaning Allen Fieldhouse is not the easiest way to raise money, but for members of the Asian-American Student Union and other KU student organizations few sources of money exist.
Student Senate rejected the renewal of block funding, where organizations receive an unoffered amount of money, in 2001 to multicultural student organizations. As a result, multicultural organizations have shifted their goals of educating students about different cultures to learning fundraising strategies.
Student organizations are now trying to get back the funding they lost.
Currently AASU, the Hispanic-American Leadership Organization, Black Student Union and First Nations Student Association receive their money through line-item
appropriations.
They must develop a budget requesting money for every single expense they project for the next year.
"We do an obscene amount of fundraising," said Victoria Li, president of the AASU and Overland Park junior. "We don't have enough money as an organization to do the things that we want to."
Multicultural student organizations like AASU were able to bring higher profile speakers and develop more educational programs for students when they were allotted block funding.
Robert Page, director of the Office of Multicultural Affairs, said he was in support of bringing back block funding.
"I think it allows the flexibility to program more efficiently," he said.
He also said block funding would help students develop programs for education and not focus on fundraising.
2006-2007 BLOCK BUDGET
The following groups receive block funding from Student Senate:
Student Senate $139,407
University Dance Company $123,000
Lied Center $117,500
Graduate and Professional Association $86,660
University Theatre $55,000
KU Bands $54,000
Headquarters Counseling Center $46,000
Hilltop Child Development Center $35,000
GaDuGi Safe Center $28,255
Multicultural Resource Center $22,000
Student Union Activities $15,000
KU Forensics $12,000
Women's Transitional Care Service $8,000
Douglas County AIDS Project $4,000
Elections Commission $1,220
Source: Student Senate
Bryan Young, Student Senate treasurer and Wichita senior, said that line-item funding was best-suited for these organizations because it made them plan one year in advance instead of two years. But he said that Senate would be willing to grant block funding status again if the organizations made convincing arguments
and, had a department oversee the money.
The main expense these organizations have every year is covering registration for yearly conferences. Student Senate pays for it, but the money does not cover lodging and travel expenses.

Housing, meal costs increase
Maintenance adds to hike
BY ERIC SORRENTINO
esrrentino@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
- Student housing expenses will increase next year primarily in residence halls where expenses will cost $5,802 — a $176 increase.
This is part of a series of annual increases. A standard two-person bedroom and a meal plan will cost $1,388 more than it did five years ago.
The prices have turned some freshmen from the living in residence halls.
Jenna Howard, Lincoln, Neb. freshman, will move from Corbin Hall to Jefferson Commons Apartments, 2511 W. 31st St., next year.
She said it would be $1,500 cheaper to live in Jefferson Commons next year.
A new mean plan format and hall maintenance costs are reasons for the increase, said Kip Grosshans, associate director for housing office administration.
"The dorms were a great place to meet people, but I'd like my own room and my own bathroom next year," Howard said.
The Department of Student Housing merged with KU Cuisine last fall, adding cash to residence hall students' KUIDs,

Drinking in the streets
Commission may change sidewalk dining regulations
BY JASON SHAAD
jshaad@hansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Since the city smoking ban took effect last July, some bar and restaurant owners have sought new ways to retain customers who smoke. One option is to obtain a sidewalk dining license, which allows businesses to serve food and beverages on part of the sidewalk, where the smoking ban does not apply.
The sidewalks along Massachusetts Street have become a valuable commodity for local bar and restaurant owners.
For the last two months the city commission has discussed altering the requirements for sidewalk dining licenses so more businesses could create sidewalk venues.
Businesses must make 70 percent of their revenue from food and nonalcoholic drinks to get a sidewalk dining license. The commission has discussed various options, from decreasing this percentage to eliminating the food sales requirement entirely.
City commissioner Sue Hack said allowing more businesses to obtain sidewalk dining licenses would alleviate some of the pressures from the smoking ban.
teller's restaurant, 746 Massachusetts St., will build an outdoor dining area in front of the restaurant during the next month. Sidewalk dining will contribute to the appeal of downtown, Matt Hyde, general manager, said.
"For us, it's adding to the fabric of downtown." Hyde said.
"I really believe it's worth a try," Hack said. "If this will help some of our local bar owners stay in business, then we should try it."
Some restaurants have already gained dining approval.
"More people on the sidewalk will mean more people spending money, which contributes to the success of the city."
Hyde said the restaurant would build a permanent gate to separate the dining area from the rest of the sidewalk.
But more people on the sidewalk isn't always good, said city commissioner David Schauner.
"We need a downtown that is appealing to all kinds of people — students, families, visitors." Schauner said. "Corrals of people smoking and drinking is not the kind of street scape we need
Schauner said he was concerned that changing license requirements would result in more smoking and drinking on the sidewalk than dining.
in Lawrence."
Since March 29, the commission has put a moratorium on new sidewalk dining licenses so regulations can be evaluated and developed. The commission will reconsider license requirements after it receives the evaluations on May 13.
If the commission does change the requirements, Jerry Neverve, owner of Red Lyon Tavern, plans to apply for sidewalk dining. Neverve said his business did not meet current requirements for a license. If his business obtains a license, customers will be able to take their beverages outside if they smoke
"A lot of our customers are outside already." Neverve said.
"We would like to be more hospitable to them."
Some business owners are content with the current requirements.
Dan Hughes, owner of Sunflower Outdoor and Bike Shop, said he was concerned that more sidewalk dining licenses would cause more trash on Massachusetts Street.
"Since the smoking ban has gone into effect, we've seen a ten-fold increase in cleanup," Hughes said. "The atmosphere in downtown Lawrence is one of the best in Kansas. It needs to be regulated to say that not everybody can put stuff out on the sidewalk."

Editor's Note
MARIA BURRICHE
I was one of the girls who turned 18 and went to the tattoo shop for a lower-back tattoo. Generic rebellion, I know. It was a Saturday afternoon and I
was lying face down on a table in a Manhattan tattoo parlor in a, shall we say, compromising position, with two of my friends cheering me on from the side. Several minutes into it, two students from my high school walked in and spotted me. They were in town for some type of choir festival. A few minutes later, three more classmates found their way into the parlor. This would have been bad enough, but then the choir teacher came in to tell the students they were getting ready to leave and saw me and my crack. Did I mention the choir teacher was also my principal's wife?
Tattoos have been a rite of passage in some form or another for thousands of years. You have the girls and guys who just get one to show their independence and piss off their parents, and the heavily tattooed who seem to form a sort of subculture. Leigh Ann Foskey looks into the history and the art in "Inked" on page 12.
Misty Huber, editor
The saying goes that once you get one tattoo, you'll never stop. Well, I've stopped, but I don't regret getting the one I have. And though it probably never made me "cool," I can be sure I was the talk of faculty lounge for at least a couple of days.

Use the Can By Anja Winikka Jayplay writer
Don't just stack them into cool-looking towers. Grab a can opener and cook with them.
History of the Can
After experimenting for 15 years, a Parisian named Nicholas Appert came up with the idea of preserving food by partially cooking it, sealing it in bottles with cork stoppers and immersing the bottles in boiling water. Appert assumed that as with wine, air exposure to food would spoil it. And, voial! He was right.

They may not be the most glamorous items to land in your shopping cart at the grocery store, but considering the price and the convenience, those little steel cylinders packed with nutrients are a good bet for a healthy meal.
The real stuff
You can rest assured the can stacks up just as well as its fresh and frozen counterparts when it comes to nutrition. According to a University of Illinois study, canned foods retain just as many nutrients as fresh and frozen foods. In fact, in some cases canned foods provided more nutrients to the body than fresh and frozen foods. This is because the canning process, which involves heating the can and its contents at a very high temperature, makes some nutrients such as dietary fiber, which are found in fruits and vegetables, more soluble. So it's easier for the body to use and digest.
Can cooking
Because canned foods are just as healthy as the frozen and fresh version, you can be confident using them in your recipes. If you want to start cooking with canned foods, stock your cupboard with some basic items.
American Dietetic Association spokeswoman Cynthia Sass suggests buying fruit such as pineapples canned in their own juice, vegetables such as tomatoes seasoned with garlic and onions, and protein such as canned baby shrimp and vegetarian refried beans. Sass says that canned foods are also great because you can find seasonal fruits and vegetables all year round. So grab a can of beans and wrap up a burrito for lunch or mix yogurt with a can of blueberries at breakfast.

Peachy chicken
Arrange chicken pieces in a baking pan. Bake in an oven on moderate heat until almost done; drain fat. Distribute evenly in the pan with drained, canned sliced peaches; drained, canned sliced jalapenos and a small amount of canned chicken broth. Season with salt and pepper and bake about 10 minutes longer until chicken juices run clear when chicken is pierced with a knife, and flavors are blended. Serve with steamed rice.
Pasta perfect
In a salad bowl, mix cooked and drained bow-tie pasta; drained, canned asparagus spears cut into 2-inch pieces; rinsed and drained canned white beans; red bell pepper squares and prepared Italian dressing. Dust with grated Parmesan cheese.
Spring frost
Freeze unopened cans of pitted fruit. For easy, frosty spoon drinks, submerge an unopened can of frozen fruit in hot water for about 2 minutes. Open the can and pour any liquid into the food processor bowl. Remove frozen fruit to a cutting surface and cut it into 1-inch chunks; add to food processor bowl. Process until slushy, adding some lemon-lime soda and rum or vodka. Serve immediately in stemmed glasses with spoons and straws and garnish with lemon or lime slices and mint sprigs.
Source: Canning recipes from www.mealtime.org and the Canned Food Alliance
After opening a can of food, you should immediately move it to another container to prevent spoilage and rust.
In 2002 humans consumed more than 24 billion cans of food.
No additives are needed to preserve canned foods. Sometimes salt is added to canned foods, but it is only for flavor and isn't necessary for food safety.

If you're not satisfied with pre-made graduation announcements Get your personality out with scissors and glue.
The University of Kansas
is proud to announce the graduation of
Joseph Smith
with a
Bachelor's of Arts degree
in Theatre & Film
Commencement exercises will be held at
2:30 p.m., Sunday, May 22, 2005, in
Memorial Stadium
After studying, working and double-majoring for five years at the University of Kansas, I am finally graduating. I may not be graduating with honors or any special achievements, but I want my family and friends to know about my commencement. "Hey, I'm graduating," is what I want my announcements to say. So instead of just buying a few packs of pre-made announcements from one of the bookstores or ordering through a printing service, I'm making my own.
Making your own announcements isn't as difficult as it may sound. The only skills you really need to make a basic card are cutting and folding. And how you dress up that card is completely up to you. From printmaking to collage, you can individualize your announcements in a variety of ways.
If you decide to go with printmaking, Yoonmi Nam, assistant professor of art, says that there are a lot of ways to do it. The two methods that she recommends for students to try are relief printing and silkscreen. Relief printing is similar to using stamps, where the ink is placed on the surface that you want to duplicate. Silkscreen is a more difficult process, but Nam says that stenciling is a simplified version.
For relief printing, Nam advises carving your own stamps out of wood or linoleum. She also says that you can use other materials, such as household erasers. According to The Art of Card Making, any object with a relief surface can be used as a stamp.
Using collage can create a unique look.
Instant Gratification: Cards, by Carol Endler Sterbenz and Genevieve A. Sterbenz, suggests using household materials such as ribbons, buttons, multiple types of paper and glitter. Magazines and newspapers also provide letters and photos that can be used for ransom noteworthy collages.
Another technique you can use is designing and printing your cards on the computer. Use a scanner to import
images and decorative details. And with on-campus access to computer labs stocked with design programs such as Adobe InDesign and QuarkXpress, you can create quality announcements."If you have a good sensibility in design they can look professional," Nam says.

datkinson@kansan.com
Materials
Depending on what method you use to make your announcements, you won't need all of these supplies. But these are basic materials to get you started.
Paper: Except for the text, this is the most important part of your announcement. You'll want to choose a paper that can support the medium you choose to work with. Yoonmi Nam, assistant professor of art, suggests trying a variety of papers to see what you like best.
Scissors: There are two kinds of scissors: those that cut and those that cut while adding decoration. You can find a variety of decorative scissors at any craft shop.
Adhesive: Try using a glue stick, rubber cement or spray adhesives to keep your work flat.
Craft knife and cutting mat: For more detailed work, you may want to use a craft or X-Acto knife. Be sure to use a cutting mat, to not only protect your tabletop, but to also protect the blade from dulling or breaking against your work surface.
Metal ruler: A metal ruler is better when cutting paper than a plastic ruler. You'll be able to cut against the metal ruler without damaging it or cutting into it.

Many of us have heard it before, the familiar click click,click of a dead car. When you hear that click, your battery is likely low or dead says Gene Ross, manager of Jiffy Lube, 2415 Iowa. To jump-start your vehicle, Ross says to begin by connecting jumper cables to the battery that was dead first. Connect the red jumper cable to the positive terminal on the battery and then the black cable to the negative terminal. Start the vehicle with the live battery and then connect the jumper cables to that vehicle: red to positive first and then black to negative. Start the car with the dead battery and let the car run five to 10 minutes to charge before unhooking the cables in the same order you hooked them up. Be careful to keep the cable ends separate from each other because they may spark if they touch. If the vehicle still doesn't start, Ross says make sure the cables are hooked tight to the battery terminals and let the car charge longer before trying to start it.

Gift Wrapping 101
2. Unroll a little of the paper. Put the box in the middle and fold the paper to cover it. Cut along the fold.
It's always more fun to tear open a nicely wrapped present than one that's just been thrown in a box. To make your presents prettier, here are some tips to becoming a wrapping expert.
1. Put the gift in a box. Choose your paper and a bow or ribbon.
3. With the measured paper print side down, place the box in the mid dle.
4. Fold the paper lengthwise and tape the edges together.
5. Push the paper in on the sides forming two paper triangles; one on top and one on bottom. Tape the sides to the box
6. Fold along the square edge of each triangle and tape them to the box. One points up and one points down. Do the same on the second side.
and repeat on the other side.
*For a more finished look, before you wrap, fold over all raw edges to create a "hem".
7. Turn the present seam-side down, and tape on a bow or ribbon.

Girls are from Venus boys are from Mars By Samara Nazir Jayplay writer

Nothing
Nothing seems unusual about four roommates in a two-bedroom apartment with one bathroom. However, when that combination is three girls and one guy, the situation becomes more interesting. Fortunately, Hai Chen, Olathe junior, had a positive experience from living with three girls.
Despite preconceived notions about coed living arrangements leading to sheer disaster, gender mixing can work well for college guys.
Chen quickly saw the differences living with girls rather than guys. Chen says girls keep to themselves a lot more, and you really can't be rowdy around them or play video games with them. You might also be pulled into girl talk, but he advises to steer clear of any fights.
Girls are also much cleaner than guy roommates, Chen says. "Except that girls
shed hair in the shower," he says. "Sometimes I had to pull out a loogie of hair before taking a shower."
Allen and his roommate currently live with two girls, which he says is a good balance. Allen says that living with the opposite sex helps you build an understanding and connection with them. For instance, through living with girls, Allen has learned that he really doesn't know how to dress.
He says he never fought with any of his roommates. Plus, they knew each other fairly well, which eliminated the issue of hidden feelings creeping into the scenario. He is not living with any of the girls this year only because he had made living arrangements elsewhere, but Chen wouldn't mind living with a group of girls again.
For girls, living with guys can be just as fun. Fed up with being around too much estrogen and drama, Sarah Kadhim, Colorado Springs, Colo., junior, opted to live with two guys and one of her current roommates next year. Sarah knows the
Allen and his roommates never fight and because Allen and his girlfriend were friends with each other prior to dating, she was well aware of the roommate situation and never had a problem with it.
Similar expectations and good communication are the two components that John Wade, a licensed psychologist for the Counseling and Psychological services at Watkins Health Center, says are most important for coed roommates to keep in mind. Wade stresses that people do need to be mature enough to understand that there can be no romantic intentions involved for the situation to work. Or
guys too well to worry about the issue of romantic feelings developing, but she is slightly worried about sharing a bathroom because she doesn't know where she'll put all her stuff.
as Bryan Allen, Manhattan senior puts it,
"You just don't dip your pen in the company ink if you know what I mean."
Any girl you live with has to be like your sister says Michael Krost, Plano, Texas sophomore, who was also considering living with a few girls next year. The living arrangements, however, didn't work out because Krost and his potential roommates had one too many roommates for a four-person apartment at the Legends, so instead he is living with three other guys. Krost thought that living with girls would be fun and different. But then again, what guy would say no to living with girls?

Jayme Aschemeyer & Dave Swafford
It's not easy to go from being a "player" to being attached. Jayme Aschemeyer, Aurora, Colo., senior and Dave Swafford, Hutchinson senior can attest to that. Both dated a lot before they got together. Aschemeyer met Swafford through a friend whom they both wanted to live with. Swafford and their mutual friend ended up living together, which pissed Aschemeyer off because she thought Swafford stole her roommate. She didn't like him much after that. Swafford even dated Aschemeyer's roommate, which didn't work out. But finally they went out on a date, and it's been a transforming two and a half months since.

Bitch + Moan
By Jessi Crowder and Chris Tackett
Q
How far does the apple fall from the cheating tree?
My boyfriend only wants to have sex once or twice a week. When we have sex it's usually pretty good, but I want it more often. He never seems to show much interest. Is it me? Or is he cheating? Or what?
—Leslie, freshman
Chris: It sounds like he has a case of the "lames" — as in "he's lame." It is possible he's so tired from boning other girls he's too tired for you. It's also possible he just doesn't have much of a sex drive. it's also possible he's gay. If he is more important than sex with him, you may have to go manual to meet your needs. Or find someone else that likes the morning quickies, nooners and all-night romps us normal people enjoy.
romps us normal people enjoy. Jessi: It sounds like you two just have different libido levels. I know plenty of girls who would be thankful to find a man like yours who isn't constantly consumed by sexy thoughts. However, I have a few suggestions in mind: You could introduce some new moves/items in the bedroom to up the randy-factor. You could use your handy-dandy vibe for some quality you-time. Or as a last resort, you could take him for a walk on Mass and point at every single guy walking by and say "look, I bet he'd do me," but that's only if you're into guilt-tripping and making him feel like absolute crap on a stick.
Q
My boyfriend's dad has cheated a lot. It's got me worrying. Do you think cheating is genetic or am I crazy? Mel, sophomore
Chris: Your boyfriend may have learned a lot from his father's cheating — like how damaging it can be. Just because his father was less than faithful doesn't mean he will follow that path. Sure he may turn out to be a cheating douche bag too, but that will be his choice, not his father's. Geez, I'm just not funny today! Sorry for the letdown.
father's. Geez, I'm just not really busy right. Jessi? Yes, Mel, dear. You're absolutely right. Cheating is genetic... as genetic as favorite pizza toppings. I'm kidding you! Although there have been studies conducted regarding whether or not philandering has a genetic basis, there is no real truth as of yet to that theory. However, learning, imitation and acceptance may have some influence over a person's moral upbringing. Children learn from their parents, and in many cases adopt their parents' relationship strategies like confrontation versus passivity. That said, I do believe that people may see infidelity as more acceptable than others depending on their experiences with it growing up.
Q
After graduation, my boyfriend of six months will be moving four hours away to work. Would it be smarter to keep dating or break up?
—Nita, junior
Chris: With gas prices as high as they are now and predicted to keep growing this summer, it's not only smart to break up, it's also smart to sell your car and buy a bike. If being four hours away has you questioning your relationship, I'm guessing this isn't something you expect will last long anyway. Ending it before would be better if that's what you think both of y'all want. But if you care enough for this guy to give it a shot, try it out, see what happens and be sure to communicate your feelings along the way.
cate your feelings along the way. Jessi! I only support long-distance relationships in the case that the couple a) sees a possible future together, b) have already been together for a while, and c) are in love and devoted to sticking it out. I think you'll see all three components are necessary in order to keep this type of relationship together.

Girl (to Guy 1): Yeah, that was my spring break in Vegas. The stripper grabbed my boob, bit my nipple and then went down below — and I don't want to tell you what happened down there. She was able to do something with her mouth that made it feel like a vibrator...
Guy 2: Wait — she bit your nipple?
Girl: I was wearing a really low-cut shirt.
Guy 2: Oh.
Girl 1: Hey — did you cheat on Ben?
Girl 2: Yeah.
Girl 1: God, every time I see him I want to cry!
Girl 2: The thing is, he's beautiful -
Girl 1 (interrupting): Really beautiful.
Girl 2: But he's not very smart.
Girl 1: Yeah, that's true.
Guy 1: Did you see those people bitching about the sinking cruise ship on TV?
Guy 2: Yeah.
Guy 1: People are such bitches.
Guy 1: I come up the best.
Guy 2: Yeah, I'll bet it was way worse than, say, the tsunami.
Guy 1: For real.

Detafield, Wis.
senior
Q: What's on the walls in your room?
Henrickson: In my fitness room, I've got live-action pictures of the teams I've coached.
Rohde: Car posters,car flags and car memorabilia.
Q: Where do you see yourself years from now?
Henrickson: For us to be playing, winning a Big 12 championship. Maybe Final 4 level—look at Baylor; they did it in five.
Rohde: Living In Kansas City, working, and slightly missing being in Lawrence.
G: At what store would you max out your credit cards?
Henrickson: Nordstrom's. Up in the Studio 121 department or the shoe department. It's good because they have large sizes and I wear a size 11.
Rohde: I could really use some new furniture. So call me matrosexual, but I'd go to Restoration Hardware.
Disc balls or slick lights.
Henrickson: I'd have to say disco balls, because Saturday Night Fever is my era, John Travolta and stuff.
Rohde: Strobe lights.
Q: Disco balls or strobe lights?
Q: If you came back in another life, what would you be?
Henrickson: I would be a backup singer—I don't have the range to be the lead singer. Or be a really good piano player.
Rohde: Somebody who makes much more money than I'm going to. Maybe a doctor or a lawyer.

down at a rate between 50 to 3,000 times per minute. Then the needle places tiny droplets of pigment about one-eighth of an inch deep into the skin. Because the cells in dermis skin are so strong, the ink will last forever, with minor touchups.
Otzi was tattooed for medicinal purposes. Many Egyptian women were tattooed on their breasts and lower abdomen to aid fertility, and sailors saw tattoos as amulets, while certain tribes used the art to remember some kind of journey. In Western cultures such as the United States, tattooing may answer a deeper need that people have to mark their person, Hemingson says. It's bloody and painful, but people continue to put themselves through it.
Kristen Ferrell, buyer at Third Planet, 2 E. Ninth St. got her first tattoo when she was 16. "It was this funny biker chic moon and stars thing," she says. Ferrell says she always knew she would have tattoos. Growing up with National Geographic, she loved the idea of being able to put a drawing on skin permanently. "You only have your skin once, why not do as much as you can with it," she says. She has now been getting tattooed for about 15 years and doesn't plan on stopping. Ferrell says that tattoos change the way you see empty spaces on your body. And that once you get the first, you start thinking about where you're going to put the next. "Instead of seeing your body as a whole, you see it as open space," she says.
Andrew Holtmann, Kansas City, Kan., senior, says he also sees his skin as a blank canvas. "I knew when I got the first one I was going to get more," he says. "It was just a matter of taking that first step." Holtmann now has eight tattoos, one yet to be finished and says he will continue to get more. He sees his tattoos as a source of strength. He says they are a way to remember events and people, like his band-mates who have moved on.
Views on ink
Tattoos not only change the way you see your own body, they can change the way others see you too. Ferrell is the mother of a 6 year old and says now that he's older, her tattoos aren't such a problem. When he was younger, she says, they'd go to the park and other mothers would take their children and leave because of the culture that tattoos represented. But that stigma is changing. Joe McGill, owner of Joe's Body Art, 714 Vermont St. Ste. 100, says there is no longer a negative stereotype. "It's not just servicemen and bikers and ex-cons that have them, everyone gets them now," he says. Ferrell too says she sees a difference in the way people see skin art. They are becoming more mainstream and acceptable she says. "Now, you are judged by the kind of tattoo you have, not just that you have them."
Big Daddy Cadillacs, a favorite of Kristen Ferrell's, is located Eightth and New Hampshire Streets next door to Sakaroff's. Kristen is a loyal customer of "Carlos"
Stacy Daugherty, owner of Big Daddy Cadillac's, 16 E. Eighth St., says tattoos are becoming more acceptable in the workplace too. Daugherty, for example, just finished two full sleeves and a full back piece for a high school principal. Daugherty says people who get tattoos vary radically. Although tattooing is probably more common among educated 18 to 26 year olds, Daugherty did give a 93-year-old woman her first tattoo. She told Daugherty that her husband never liked tattoos and he died, so she decided to go for it.
Men and women see tattooing differently, says hensimson from The Vanishing Tattoo. Men tend to get more masculine tattoos such as dragons and usually have tattoos on their upper body to make themselves look bigger. Women on the other hand, are more likely to get art with more emotion and meaning. Women get tattoos that reflect a certain time or help them remember a loved one. They also have a tendency to be tattooed on more erogenous and feminine body parts such as the hips and buttocks. Women represent 56 percent of the clientele at Big Daddy's. Daugherty, the owner, contributes this number to women presenting themselves more strongly. While tattooed women were once stereotyped as prostitutes, they're now accepted.
So you want to get a tat?
TATTOOS
When I got my first tattoo I was overwhelmed. I had no idea what I was doing. I went to every tattoo shop in Kansas City, looked through portfolios and asked about each artist. After weeks of debating, I took my crayon drawing into a shop and handed it to a tattooed girl with bubblegum pink hair. After a few re-sketches I handed her the deposit and waited, for what seemed like forever. Finally, a week later, I went in to see the final drawings and scheduled the appointment. After a few more weeks of waiting (and plenty of time to talk myself out of it) I went in. My first tattoo took three-and-a-half hours to finish, and the most painful part was sitting still for so long. Now I have two tattoos, more than $600 worth of work, and I love them both
because I draw them myself. And I have no hesitations about getting more. There is more to getting a tattoo than picking some flash off a wall. You have to get something you can look at everyday for the rest of your life.
To make sure it's the tattoo for you, Ferrell says to place a drawing of the tattoo you want on the bathroom mirror. That way you'll have to look at it at least a few times a day. If you still like it after about three months, get it. Ferrell says you can also try henna. The ink will stay on your skin for a few weeks and give you an idea of what the finished product will look like.
Pick an artist you trust and feel comfortable with. He adds that it's probably not a good sign if the artist can right you when you walk in. Holtmann says to pick something you like and don't become a cliché. He says to choose something with a deeper meaning that you can will stay with you. Some tattoos, such as tribal armbands, stars and Chinese characters may be overdone. And butterflies and roses have always been popular among women. But don't let that scare you away, if the design means something to you, get it.
It's also important to like the artist's style says McGill from Joe's Body Art. He prefers doing free-flowing tribal designs; those that move with the body and look like they're supposed to be there. He says to choose an artist who will work with you on what you want. "It's not about me," he says, "I'm just the pencil, so they say." McGill says getting something you can be happy with is most important. The tattoo needs to have meaning for you because it will always be there. "Tattoos last longer than you do," he says.
Get the biggest tattoo you're comfortable with, says Hemingson; The bigger the tattoo is, the better an artist can show off his or her talent. Hemingson says artists need about 10 years of experience to do their best work because skin is hard to draw on and it takes a long time to master. "You want a tattoo that can blow their minds a little," he says. "You want people to say, 'Wow, who did that?' Not, 'Oh, what is it?'"
With more people getting tattoos, the industry is improving its technology. McGill, owner of Joe's Body Art, says equipment and service are getting better all the time. Even since he opened his first shop in 1994, the quality of ink and equipment has improved. He says colors are brighter, they last longer and the machines run smoother, which allow for making finer lines. There are more talented young artists entering the scene than ever before. Many new artists have backgrounds in graphic design and fine arts and bring a different kind of ability to the industry. He says that as these artists grow in number we can expect to see more fine art reproductions on skin.
The future of skin art
More talented young artists are entering the scene ever before, says Daugherty from Big Daddy's. Many artists have backgrounds in graphic design and fine and bring a different kind of ability to the industry. He says that as these artists grow in number, we can expect to more fine art reproductions on skin.
As I got up from the chair to leave the tattoo shop, new piece covered in clear goo and encased in pla wrap, I took a deep sigh of relief. I've marked my b making it my own. I'll always have a tattoo to remind of that point in time; that exact moment. It is a permanent keepsake of who I am.

Going backstage at concerts isn't always as cool as it might seem
By Mandy Hendrix Jayplay writer
I'M THE BAND
After the band has unloaded their equipment from their van, I ask to see the backstage. Every member of Distance To Empty tells me that he has never been backstage at The Bottleneck. They prefer to hang out in one of the booths and listen to the other bands playing that night, says Kyle Akers, Distance To Empty bassist and Prairie Village senior. I'm already beginning to wonder if the famed backstage pass is as exclusive as it's made out to be.
It's one of the most elusive places at any concert. Cut off to the public by beefy security men, the backstage is surrounded with mystery. Rabid fans will do almost anything to get there. The more reserved only dream about the experience. But are the backstage activities really worth all the fuss?
To find out, I decided to hang out with the local band Distance To Empty during one of its shows at The Bottleneck to figure out the allure of the backstage. These guys have been around for three years and have played many shows in Kansas and toured throughout the Midwest. The music scene here in Lawrence is friendly, welcoming and much different than in a larger city. Local bands dominate in Lawrence and play small venues such as the Bottleneck and the Granada. Distance To Empty decided to let me in on some of the secrets of off-stage action at the local level.
Touring across several states, Distance To Empty has found that the backstage — or green room — changes little from venue to venue. "It's like they [the venue] find the nastiest room and turn it into the green room," Akers says. "They think, 'Okay, you can hang out here and drink beer.'" He remembers hearing stories of the haunted backstage at the Bone, a music venue in St. Joseph, Mo. There was
Kris Kennedy, a member of the hip-hop group Crux, has a different pre-show routine. Kennedy, Overland Park junior, mentally runs through the show and then clears his mind. He does this for about four hours before the show starts, but with a half an hour until he goes onstage, Kennedy does what he calls "the rain man." He mouths the words to his songs as fast as he can, then dances around a little bit.
At the Bottleneck I'm led upstairs to a tiny room thick with cigarette smoke and graffiti decorated walls — not quite how I envisioned the "backstage." The carpet is soiled and in need of a vacuuming, the makeshift bathroom has newspapers and grime all over the toilet and the chairs lining the wall have exposed padding. Sitting on a table in this filthy room, there is a vase with blooming pink flowers.
band in the green room smoking marijuana and suddenly the numbers on the clock started spinning and the cash register drawer flew open, Akers says.
This isn't the way you would picture the backstage at larger, national shows. It's not like these guys have someone attending to their every need. Request lists? Nope. These bands are lucky to be playing a venue; they can't afford to be obnoxious. At the Bottleneck, there isn't even a person guarding the backstage door. Dur-
While I'm up here at The Bottleneck, members of other bands tread up the narrow, steep stairs to sit on the large bench and talk with one another. The bands Distance To Empty and Aubrey decide to leave their mark by scribbling their names on the ceiling, but all they have is a pen. The effect isn't quite the same as the hot pink "I love pussy" spray painted on the wall.
Tonight the only girls hanging around the band are friends, but Distance To Empty has been propositioned with sexual requests before. At a show in Wichita, Bo
McCall, guitarist for the band and Lenexa resident, tells me that some girls came up to the group after the show to invite them to an怒. The band declined, but was thrilled to have gotten the offer. "At that point, we were like 'Yeah, we're a real band now,'" McCall says.
The behind the scenes action is not quite the image of sex, drugs n' rock and roll that I had imagined. Be backstage wasn't as exciting as it's hyped up to be. I didn't see any bonuses or perks that night. I realized that the best place at a concert isn't the backstage, but next to the stage enjoying the music.

Here's to getting "blasted." It's ingredients can differ from gin and champagne to cognac and champagne, but either way the French 75 is a drink that packs a punch. In the French trenches of World War I gin was scarc, but cognac and champagne were not. American soldiers soon discovered that a combination of the two produced an effect similar to getting zapped by an artillery piece known as French 75.
Ingredients:
1 1/2 oz. cognac
1 oz. lemon juice
1 tsp. sugar
6 oz. champagne
Combine everything but the champagne. Shake and pour the mixture in a champagne glass. Fill with the champagne and garnish with a lemon twist.

Domingo "Sonny" Ortiz: percussion
Interview: Widespread Panic
Formed 16 years ago in Athens, Ga., Widespread Panic is a favorite among the "jam-friendly" community. "The Boys from the South" as devoted, road-worn fans might call them, the band mixes together elements of American roots music — blues, jazz and folk with classic rock riffs and Latin percussion to form a distinct Southern rock sound all its
own. The band comes to the Starlight Theatre in Kansas City, Mo. on May 3 to play a sold-out show.
Jay play writer Chris Brown caught up with percussionist Domingo "Sonny" Ortiz after the first of a two-night
run in Raleigh, N.C. to chat about nicknames, favorite places to play and dreams.
What's the story behind the nickname?
I guess it was back in high school, you know when life
was a barrel of monkeys, I smiled
a bunch and friends started calling me that and it just kind of stuck.
With a nickname like "Sonny" I'm interested to know, is the glass half empty or half full? Oh, it's always full.
How's tour looking so far?
It's great to be back on the road, Raleigh's.
always been a great city for us. We're excited about being out on the road. We're shooting for going into the studio in January.
What are you thinking about when you are performing a solo?
It's a real spontaneous, spur of the moment kind of thing. I try to think 'how can I complement what the other musicians do?' Music is a verbal communication. As a player, you try to add to the musical conversation without overplaying.
Fill in the blank:
___ days, chasin' the clouds away.
Hot.
Actually, I was playing on your nickname for that one.
Oh, well it reminds me of growing up in Texas when the summers were real hot and I was just dreamin' away.
___ and Cher.
Sonny.
I've got sunshine on a ___ day.
[Laughs] Cloudy.
Of all the places you guys have ever played, which is a lot, what's your favorite?
Well it's always great to play in Atlanta, but Vegas, New York, LA, San Francisco, the Gorge, San Diego, Germany and some other European cities, these towns are all really great to play and they've been really super for us. I wish we could play in Athens but there isn't anyplace we can play there.
Can you describe the strangest dream you've ever had?
I guess when you're younger you can remember your dreams, but when you're older you can't. As a kid, like everyone else, I dreamed about being successful, about being happy and doing something I've always wanted to do. I'm very fortunate because I get to do what I love every day. I love getting up and going to work now. It's being able to play music day in, day out, ordering room service and traveling a lot. It's the small things in life for me that make my world click.

Kung Fu Hustle
(☆☆☆)
R, 99 minutes South Wind 12
The setting is Shanghai in the 1940s, "a time of social disorder and unrest," when the Axe Gang, dressed in bow ties and top hats, rules the city. The gang receives its comeupmean from a batch of retired warriors hiding in a slum named Pig St Alley. There, we meet the Landlady, a middie-aged shrew who chain smokes and beats her husband. We also meet a hair-dresser whose butt is always hanging out and a shopkeeper named Donet.
Stephen Chow's Kung Fu Hustle is the best live-action cartoon since the Coen Brothers' 'Raising Arizona'. It's funny, ultraviolent and, yes, a little exhausting.
In his native Hong Kong, Chow has developed a reputation as the next Bruce Lee. His seven features as director and star—among them 2001's Shaolin Soccer—show a slapstick comedian as much as a martial-arts master. He's also a fluid and energetic filmmaker, virtues evident in nearly every scene of Kung Fu Hustle.
Then there's Sing, played by Chow, who lives a life of petty crime but is destined to become a great warrior. We know this because when Sing was a kid an old man stopped him on the street and declared him a "one in a thousand kung-fu genius." He should all be so lucky.
Chow piles on visual gags that defy the laws of nature, lending the film a kind of breezy comic anarchy. People get their faces and feet smashed in, but live to fight another day, while a chase on foot looks like it was taken right out of an old "Road Runner" cartoon.
As silly as it is, Kung Fu Hustle showcases exhilarating fight scenes filled with wall-to-wall destruction and state-of-the-art special effects. This innovative mix of the absurd and the savage leaves the viewer worm out but doubly entertained.

The Interpreter (★★★)
PG-13, 128 minutes South Wind 12
If anything, The Interpreter is authentic. It is the first movie ever to be filmed inside the actual United Nations building in New York. Director Sidney Pollack uses the authenticity to create a tense thriller that builds interest with every scene.
The film stars Nicole Kidman and Sean Penn, both bringing depth and realism to their characters. The film focuses around Slivia Brome, a U.N. interpreter from an African country, in one of those scenes where the main character goes back to the office late at night when seemingly nobody's around, she overhears a conversation revealing a plot to kill Matobo's corrupt and genocidal president. Enter Tobin Keller, a secret service agent assigned to the protection of foreign dignitaries on U.S. soil. Penn's character carries with him a painful secret that isn't revealed until halfway through the movie. Pollack uses this secret to bring his two main characters closer together, not as lovers, but as people who need someone to confide in and trust. He balances moments like this with the tenser ones well.
Pollack knows how to build tension.
Take for example the sequence where three suspects are being tailed throughout New York City at the same time, and all end up on the same city bus. Pollack lets each of these characters movements play out in front of the audience and lets the suspense build until all of the pieces fall into place.
Penn and Kidman have exactly the right chemistry for their characters. Penn in particular shows a good range, going from distrustful of Kidman's character to an overprotective father figure to a close friend.
—Jon Ralston
The Interpreter uses those scenes inside the U.N. to full effect, helping add to the realism and tension in this solid thriller.

Melinda and Melinda ( ☆ ☆ )
PG-13, 100 Minutes Liberty Hall
The Interpreter
Does the world need another Woody Allen movie? Casual filmgoers may think of Melinda and Melinda as "that new Will Ferrell movie," but make no mistake — Ferrell is not the story here, Allen is. Woody Allen is one of the great American auteurs, and he has written and directed nearly 40 films in his career. But his career trajectory has gone from zany (Bananas) to sublime (Annie Hall) to serious (Crimes and Middemanors) to huh? (Melinda and Melinda)
I use the term "huh?" to describe this film because it seems so unnecessary. Allen has nothing to prove, so why does
he keep churning out mediocre films? He made his last meaningful work (Mighty Aphrodite) 10 years ago. At this point, it seems like he's losing control of the craft. The dialogue is better suited for a high school play, and the actors don't move naturalistically through the screen at all.

Primer
Movie (✩✩✩ 1/2)
DVD (two stars)
PG-13,78 minutes
How often does an original film come out? While we can argue all day just how many creative films come out each year, I'm sure we would all agree that too few are released. So what happens when a truly intelligent and inventive movie comes out? Well, then you have Primer.
Primer is notable for several reasons. The first is that it won the Grand Jury Prize at the Sundance Film Festival last year. The second is that it won despite having been made for about $7000. That's just more than half the price of a Kia Spectra.
In an age of bloated sci-fi flicks (*Star Wars III anyone*) with costs pushing $115 million, it's refreshing to see a film that was made on a budget that actually uses science to explore moral dilemmas, which is the purpose of science fiction anyway.
The film revolves around a group of engineers who spend their weekends trying to invent the next big thing. They dink around in a garage, talk shop and fight among themselves. Eventually two of them realize that they stumbling onto something big and begin working on their own. The two, David Sullivan and Shane Carruth (who also wrote, produced, directed, and scored the film) eventually
Primer
find out that they've invented a machine where time travels backward. By sitting in the machine for six hours, they go back six hours in time instead of forward. They know it works because they see themselves leaving the machine.
So what do they do? What anyone would do — try to get rich. They go back and start trading stocks, but eventually greed conquers all. They begin to travel back multiple times, until there are multiple "thems" existing at one time. So they begin to drug themselves in order to keep themselves from ruining their future plans in the past.
Sound confusing? It is. But inside this Rubik's cube of a film reside a litany of questions about self, causality, trust and avarice. It's not easy to wrap your mind around this movie, but at least it's one of the films out there that doesn't assume the audience is stupid.

Suspect Zero
Movie: (✩)
DVD: (✩1/2)
R,99 Minutes,DVD Rental
From the director of The Shadow of the Vampire, E. Elias Merhige and starring no less than Ben Kingsley, Aaron Eckhart (of Erin Brockovich) and Carrie Ann Moss (of The Matrix trilogy), this serial killer film falls short of what could have been a decent thriller.
Detective Tom Mackelway is mysteriously linked to a serial killer who seems to be one step ahead of him at every turn, killing the criminals Mackelway pursues and leaving notes at the crime scenes. The usual psychological breakdown ensues, as he is dragged down into the mind of the serial killer, discovering why this man is killing the people he is, and how Mackelway himself is mentally involved in the murders. Although well made, with some nice shots and beautiful scenery and camerawork, the filmmaking lacks any storytelling qualities that would interest an audience. The characters are underdeveloped and one-dimensional, which essentially takes any emotional connection out of the film.
The idea behind the story could have been better executed if the film hadn't relied so much on Aaron Eckhart, who doesn't have the presence of a leading man, and Moss plays a non-character who
Suspect Zero
should either have been brought more into the foreground, or left out altogether. Kingsley always gives a semi-decent performance, and he is the best thing in the film, but you wonder why he put his name down to this, after last year's amazing House of Sand and Fog. But even if the film had focused on better characters and performances, the script didn't give the actors much to work with, and gradually gets worse and worse, which by the third act is tiresome.
The best way to see this film is to watch Silence of the Lambs and Seven, because just about all of the material in this movie seems to be taken from them.
The DVD package isn't bad for a film such as this, and better films often have fewer extras, it boasts a four-part featurette on the making of the film, an alternate ending, which is always interesting and a commentary by the director. As well as this, there are a few other bits and pieces such as trailers and previews, but overall the special features don't make this a DVD worth getting, because it's not a movie worth watching.

Thai Beat Songs
Grecory 60's
Sounds from
the Land
of Smiles!
Volume 2
Thai Beat A Go-Go Volume 2 Subliminal Sounds!
And we thought the Western world had that whole tripped out psychedelic rock scene on the lock down in the 1960's. This second compilation from Subliminal Sounds gives a glimpse into what was going down in the "Land of Smile" way back when dropping acid was still good for you. As American soldiers were invading South-Eastern Asia, so was the culture of rock n' roll. Thai Beat A Go-Go features American pop songs such as "All Shook up" and "Shimmy Shimmy Ko Ko
Bop," covered by some of Thailand's more prominent lounge acts of the era. The Lo-Fi production exemplifies the authenticity of these go-go groups, capturing the energy and texture of these bands in a live environment. Most of the songs do well in striking a balance between making the songs recognizable and maintaining a uniquely Far-East flavor that at some points outdoes the originals.
Recordings such as these are nearly impossible to come by which makes this collection something of a lost treasure. A lot of these songs may sound like gimmicks upon first listen, but once you get past the language barrier you discover
there's something downright radical going on. There's an urgency blaring from this otherwise 'fun' record; one of two very different worlds colliding at a time in history when both cultures were experiencing so much turmoil.All the while rock n' roll was bringing people together and keeping them sane.

When I was in high school, I wanted to do one of two things with life: work in the gaming industry or be a Marine. I was hoping this game would fuse my love for
video games and the appeal of the Marines.
Unfortunately, anyone who plays this game will wonder why the United States hasn't been invaded. The first thing I did was watch as one single terrorist wiped out my entire squad as they sat in a crouched position and were shot.
After a while, the game began to feel

The controls are unlike any other firstperson shooter and you only use one gun through most of the game.
In the tutorial the game explains that each member of your squad is assigned a different direction to watch so that the squad isn't sneaked up on. This sounds good but it runs into problems when several enemies approach from the same direction. The member of your squad looking that direction will open fire on the incoming enemies, but the guys next to

him will mostly keep pointed in the same direction they are assigned. That, along with the fact that your guys can't hit anything, means you end up shooting all the time.
After playing first-person shooters based on World War II and the upcoming Star Wars movie, I was psyched to play one based on modern-day weapons and military tactics. This, however, is by far the least fun game I've played all semester. I just hope the Marine Corps isn't relying on this game to boost enlistment.

Musashi:
Samurai Legend
PS2
He may be taller and his hair a different color, but make no mistake, this is the Brave Fencer that once graced the PS1 in his first adventure. Now he has come back to save another world in danger.
The evil Gandrake Empire has been kidnapping Mystics, people with the ability to perform magic, to further its goal of world domination. In hopes of stopping this plan, Princess Mycella performs the hero summon in hopes of saving her people. Now in order to get back to his home world, Musashi must fight his way through a slew of bad guys to save the
princess and the world from the Gandrak Empire.
While the game does have elements of an RPG in it, it is mostly an action-adventure game. When you see an enemy in front of you, you use your swords to cut anything that gets in your way. As you gain levels, you power up Musashi with better stats. You can enhance his defense, focusing capabilities and special moves.

The graphics are decent. The cartoonish shading makes the game look like something out of a comic book. It doesn't go for realism, but I doubt that's what the designers intended to do.
Musashi can still learn the powers of his enemies. When the lock-on cursor glows blue, it means they have an ability you can

still learn. Once your focus meter is filled, you must wait for the opponent to attack you with the appropriate move. When you see the exclamation point, you must quickly press the attack button and then perform the appropriate command. Once you do that, you have the enemy's attack at your disposal.
Musashi: Samurai Legend is a pretty
straightforward game. The story of saving the princess is nothing new, so you can get into it pretty easily. There are a few things to get around, but it's a fun game and easy to enjoy.

The Spandex was a departure from the Daisy Duke running shorts typically fashioned by distance runners. They reveal most of my legs, a little bit of my ass, a whole lot of my soul and rob me of all my dignity.
Right about this time last spring marks the one-year anniversary of when I pissed away a potential professional sports career.
Kansas hasn't embraced the sport of running like my native Colorado does, so wearing such shorts around town earn catcalls in the streets and much derision among my colleagues at The University Daily Kansan.
Literally.
Last year's Kansas Relays was my first race back from a broken foot that I had suffered in an indoor track meet at Iowa State a couple months before. Feeling deprived and depraved from not running, I was pleased to learn I would get to race in the 1,500-meter run for the Thursday Distance Carnival at the Relays. I had only been running for a couple weeks and was pitifully out of shape. With the idea that expectations were low, I decided to have a bit of fun with the race and donned a pair of Spandex shorts for the race.
It soon became apparent that I was unbeatable in the constricting shorts. I was undefeated in head-to-head competition in them. This was a good thing because the next race was the Big 12 Championships in Norman, Okla, I started my typical pre-race ritual that day. Seeing how it was a big race, I was a bit nervous. Combine that with the huge amounts of water and coffee I had drunk before the race, and nature was calling pretty hard.
I checked my watch and found that I had four minutes before I would have to report
I toed the line of my heat at the Kansas Relays and was predictably the only runner wearing the tight, frontally-revealing Spandex shorts. The race started as ugly as I had expected. Early on, I was six or seven seconds behind everybody. Magically, I took the lead with half a lap remaining and miraculously won my heat of the race.
Most athletes in post-competition interviews will thank God, the Lord, Jesus, Allah or some higher being for their victory. I had my Spandex shorts to thank, believing they were the only reason I was able to cross the line first. I won my next race in Tulsa with the Spandex shorts as well.
to made
meets doesn't mess around and no race will start late on his watch. With this in mind, I figured I had three minutes to go to the bathroom because with this guy you're a minute early or you're late.
I jogged to the bathroom and stepped up to the urinal in my Spandex shorts to relieve myself. When nothing happened, I chalked it up to a case of nervousness, which would have seemed unnecessary because I was undefeated that outdoor season in tight shorts.
But as soon as I pulled them up, I somehow "sprung a leak." Humiliated, I glanced down to see a growing wet spot in my shorts. But that fleeting embarrassment would be nothing compared to the disgrace I would be met with if I went out to the track and raced in front of hundreds of people, a crowd that included one of my best friends from high school.
I figured I would have enough time to run a few strides and air dry it out, but it didn't help at all. I saw that I only had one
decision to change into my Daisy Dukes and got to the track just in time to hear the meet official scream at me, "Kansas! What the hell are ya doin?"" as he saw me bound to the track later everyone else.
Because of the conversion of drawers, the race was a disaster. I was in last for most of it and managed to pass a couple runners from Texas and maybe one from lowa State right near the end, sparing me from dead last, but interrupting what could otherwise have been an illustrious undefeated running career.
What had always been a modest career of running at the University of Kansas saw a brief glimmer of hope and stardom in the three-week span that I went unbeaten, but I was quickly watered down back to the mediocre runner I had always been.

Exhibition play eye-opening

The Big 12 conference champion Kansas soccer team competed in two spring exhibition games in Indiana last weekend.
The team's first stop was in Indianapolis on Saturday where the Jayhawks flew past the Purdue Boilermakers, 3-0. Junior forward Caroline Smith, sophomore forward Lacey Novak, and Jenifer Thomas, a transfer player from Texas Tech, scored the goals for the Jayhawks.
Overall, the Jayhawks are 2-1 in spring play. After three games the team is finding out what kinks to work out before next season.
On Sunday, the Jayhawks traveled to Bloomington, Ind., and took on the Indiana Hoosiers. There the Jayhawks suffered their first defeat of the exhibition season, 2-0.
"Playing three games has

Kansas went 18-5-0 last season, which gave the team its first Big 12 Championship. Kansas also made it to the

The starters added two more runs in the bottom of the seventh, and the reserves continued to move runners in the eighth inning, adding the final three scores.

death for a pitcher, but players have also suffered heart attacks after getting hit in the chest.
A pitcher standing on the mound arms extended, after throwing a pitch is completely vulnerable. There is little or nothing a pitcher can do to protect himself.
A study published in the Official Journal of the American College of Sports Medicine showed that a ball coming off a metal bat has a much higher velocity than a ball coming off a wooden bat.
Using wooden bats for collegiate games would also help players prepare for the professional ranks.
After last season Kansas baseball players Matt Trible, Ryan Baty and
Travis Metcalf were all drafted by major league clubs, and immediately joined their minor league affiliates.
There certainly was a transition period for them to adjust from using a metal bat each day. Using wooden bats helps give the college baseball players the opportunity to improve their skills using the same equipment professionals use.
Many collegiate players participate in wooden bat leagues during the summer to prepare on their own. But why not prepare them for the best competition while they are playing collegiate games?
It would provide a better game at the professional level as they use the same equipment for a long period of time.
However, players will eventually adjust and offensive output will remain high.
The offensive productivity certainly would drop in the college game.
Some Little League organizations have seen the problems of using metal bats, and are now converting to wooden-bat-only leagues.
Chelmsford, Mass., banned all metal bat use for the 2004 season.
It's a step in the right direction, but more still needs to be done. Getting the NCAA to sign on to ban the use of metal bats certainly would show others that this is a very serious matter.
Instead of hearing the 'ping' that is made when a metal bat makes contact with a ball, change it to the 'crack' of a wooden bat.
It makes sense and it will save lives.

FUNDRAISING
Hard up for money
Student groups frustrated with Student Senate allocations
BY ESTUARDO GARCIA
egarcia@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Staying up all night cleaning Allen Fieldhouse is not the easiest way to raise money, but for members of the Asian-American Student Union and other KU student organizations few sources of money exist.
Student Senate rejected the renewal of block funding, where organizations receive an unfettered amount of money, in 2001 to multicultural student organizations. As a result, multicultural organizations have shifted their goals of educating students about different cultures to learning fundraising strategies.
Student organizations are now trying to get back the funding they lost.
Currently AASU, the Hispanic-American Leadership Organization, Black Student Union and First Nations Student Association receive their money through line-item
appropriations.
They must develop a budget requesting money for every single expense they project for the next year.
"We do an obscene amount of fundraising," said Victoria Li, president of the AASU and Overland Park junior. "We don't have enough money as an organization to do the things that we want to."
Multicultural student organizations like AASU were able to bring higher profile speakers and develop more educational programs for students when they were allotted block funding.
Robert Page, director of the Office of Multicultural Affairs, said he was in support of bringing back block funding.
"I think it allows the flexibility to program more efficiently," he said.
He also said block funding would help students develop programs for education and not focus on fundraising.
2006-2007 BLOCK BUDGET
The following groups receive block funding from Student Senate:
Student Senate $139,407
University Dance Company $123,000
Lied Center $117,500
Graduate and Professional Association $86,660
University Theatre $55,000
KU Bands $54,000
Headquarters Counseling Center $46,000
Hilltop Child Development Center $35,000
GaDuGi Safe Center $28,255
Multicultural Resource Center $22,000
Student Union Activities $15,000
KU Forensics $12,000
Women's Transitional Care Service $8,000
Douglas County AIDS Project $4,000
Elections Commission $1,220
Source: Student Senate
Bryan Young, Student Senate treasurer and Wichita senior, said that line-item funding was best-suited for these organizations because it made them plan one year in advance instead of two years. But he said that Senate would be willing to grant block funding status again if the organizations made convincing arguments
and had a department oversee the money.
The main expense these organizations have every year is covering registration for yearly conferences. Student Senate pays for it, but the money does not cover lodging and travel expenses.

Housing, meal costs increase
Maintenance adds to hike
BY ERIC SORRENTINO
esrentino@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
- Student housing expenses will increase next year primarily in residence halls where expenses will cost $5,802 — a $176 increase.
This is part of a series of annual increases. A standard two-person bedroom and a meal plan will cost $1,388 more than it did five years ago.
The prices have turned some freshmen from the living in residence halls.
Jenna Howard, Lincoln, Neb. freshman, will move from Corbin Hall to Jefferson Commons Apartments, 2511 W. 31st St. next year.
She said it would be $1,500 cheaper to live in Jefferson Commons next year.
"The dorses were a great place to meet people, but I'd like my own room and my own bathroom next year," Howard said.
A new mean plan format and hall maintenance costs are reasons for the increase, said Kip Grosshans, associate director for housing office administration.
The Department of Student Housing merged with KU Cuisine last fall, adding cash to residence hall students' KUIDs.

Drinking in the streets
Commission may change sidewalk dining regulations

This rendering shows what Teller's, 746 Massachusetts St., could look like when its outdoor dining area is built next month.

The sidewalks along Massachusetts Street have become a valuable commodity for local bar and restaurant owners.
Since the city smoking ban took effect last July, some bar and restaurant owners have sought new ways to retain customers who smoke. One option is to obtain a sidewalk dining license, which allows businesses to serve food and beverages on part of the sidewalk, where the smoking ban does not apply.
For the last two months the city commission has discussed altering the requirements for sidewalk dining licenses so more businesses could create sidewalk venues.
Businesses must make 70 percent of their revenue from food and nonalcoholic drinks to get a sidewalk dining license. The commission has discussed various options, from decreasing this percentage to eliminating the food sales requirement entirely.
City commissioner Sue Hack said allowing more businesses to obtain sidewalk dining licenses would alleviate some of the pressures from the smoking ban.
"I really believe it's worth a try," Hack said. "If this will help some of our local bar owners stay in business, then we should try it."
"For us, it's adding to the fabric of downtown." Hyde said.
Teller's restaurant, 746 Massachusetts St., will build an outdoor dining area in front of the restaurant during the next month. Sidewalk dining will contribute to the appeal of downtown, Matt Hvde, general manager, said.
Some restaurants have already gained dining approval.
"More people on the sidewalk will mean more people spending money, which contributes to the success of the city."
Hyde said the restaurant would build a permanent gate to separate the dining area from the rest of the sidewalk.
But more people on the sidewalk isn't always good, said city commissioner David Schauner.
"We need a downtown that is appealing to all kinds of people — students, families, visitors," Schauner said. "Corrals of people smoking and drinking is not the kind of street scape we need
Schauner said he was concerned that changing license requirements would result in more smoking and drinking on the sidewalk than dining.
in Lawrence."
Since March 29, the commission has put a moratorium on new sidewalk dining licenses so regulations can be evaluated and developed. The commission will reconsider license requirements after it receives the evaluations on May 13.
If the commission does change the requirements, Jerry Neverve, owner of Red Lyon Tavern, plans to apply for sidewalk dining. Neverve said his business did not meet current requirements for a license. If his business obtains a license, customers will be able to take their beverages outside if they smoke
- something they can't do now.
"A lot of our customers are outside already." Neverve said.
"We would like to be more hospitable to them."
Some business owners are content with the current requirements.
Dan Hughes, owner of Sunflower Outdoor and Bike Shop, said he was concerned that more sidewalk dining licenses would cause more trash on Massachusetts Street.
"Since the smoking ban has gone into effect, we've seen a ten-fold increase in cleanup," Hughes said. "The atmosphere in downtown Lawrence is one of the best in Kansas. It needs to be regulated to say that not everybody can put stuff out on the sidewalk."

Satire adapts a literary, musical classic
BY NEH MULKA
nmulha@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Maybe Brandon Snook should've voted for John Kerry.
For not believing in original sin, George W. Bush — portrayed as the Grand Inquisitor — orders Snook to be flogged and his professor to be hung in front of a cheering crowd.
IF YOU GO
This is a scene from Leonard Bernstein's "Candide," a 1956 musical adaptation of Voltaire's literary classic. Tim Ocel, associate professor of opera, modernized the musical for today's political climate.
"It just seemed very timely." Ocel said. "When Bernstein wrote the piece it was a big reaction to the House of Un-American Activities. This is a big reaction to Bush administration."
The House Committee of Un American Activities was most famously known for trying to suppress communist propaganda from American films.
Leonard Bernstein, who also wrote "West Side Story," was blacklisted by the committee.
The Grand Inquisitor, or President Bush, sentences two people in tan hoods to death.
The two people represent Abu Ghraib prisoners being punished and the process of blurring of church and state, Ocel said.
Despite voting for Bush in the fall elections, Snook, Richardson, Texas senior takes the musical for what it is — satire.

"People thought I would have a problem with it," Snook said. "It is what it is. It's just like 'Animal Farm' but making fun of political systems of today."
The tale of "Candide," which was written by French writer Voltaire in the 1700s, follows the adventures of the young protagonist Candide. Candide was expelled from his home for falling in love with his foster sister, Cunegonde, played by Akiko Imakawa, Overland Park graduate student.
This performance of Candide should inspire the audience to take an active role in the world, said Kate Giessel, Larned junior, who plays Voltaire in the musical.
Throughout the musical, Candide's unbridled optimism diminishes as reality sets in.
"It's my hope that the audience will leave energized," Giessel said. "And ready to take off the rose-colored glasses and take a look around."

MOVIE REVIEW
'Millions' is sweet, not sappy
BY STEPHEN SHUPE
sshupe@kansan.com
JAYPLAY REVIEWER
MILLIONS
Played by newcomer Alexander Nathan Etel, Damian is a 7-year-old British boy with freckled cheeks and big, blue puppy-dog eyes. That face — open and innocent, the spitting image of childhood whimsy — is enough to carry Danny Boyle's enchanting new family film, "Millions," opening today at Liberty Hall, 644 Massachusetts Street.
***1/2 (out of four)
Director: Danny Boyle
Rating: PG
Run time: 98 minutes
Venue: Liberty Hall
Damian and his big brother, Anthony (Lewis Owen McGibbon), have just lost their mother, so the boys move into a dreamy new house with their father, Ronnie (James Nessitt). While Anthony pretends everything's fine, Damian retreats into a fertile fantasy world. Saints come to visit him, from St. Peter to St. Clare of Assisi, ensuring the lad his mother is in the right place.
Then, in the midst of one of these saintly visits, a suitcase stuffed with cash drops out of the sky. Damian suggests reporting the money to the police, but Anthony has his doubts. Further complicating matters is a scary-looking stranger, played by
Christopher Fulford, who starts hanging around asking questions about the money as if he knew where it came from. Also, the U.K. is about to switch its currency to the Euro, which will render the loot worthless unless the boys come up with a use for it fast.
Unapologetically religious, this kidfriendly fable represents a dramatic departure for Boyle, whose previous films include the Ewan MacGregor junkie drama, "Trainspotting," and the zombie horror flick "28 Days Later."
Boyle's signature is all over this film, which he imbues with characteristic touches of surrealism. The construction of Damian's new house flies by in a series of fast-motion effects and dizzying architectural details. And the scene when Damian finds the
money begins with a memorable image of the suitcase bouncing along a train track like a basketball from heaven.
In fact, much of "Millions" seems heaven-sent. Frank Cottrell Boyce's screenplay finds the right note of Spielbergian wonder before its fantastical conclusion, which not only packs an emotional wallop but also presents a positive social message for kids. The cinematography by Anthony Dod Mantle, who also shot "28 Days Later," pops off the screen in gorgeous primary colors, while John Murphy's lush original score lends the film the magical feeling of a bedtime story.
But the real find here is Etel as Damien, who may be the first instantly lovable screen kid since Drew Barrymore in "E.T. The Extraterrestrial." Damien exists on such a pure level between fantasy and faith that he captures your heart. It's a place movies should go to more often, and one that suits Boyle's artistic virtues as a director.

Latin food festival to be held tonight
Money will go toward the House that Greeks Built program, which will provide for a house built in Lawrence.
Latin American Solidarity will host its second annual Latin American Food Festival at the Ecumenical Christian Ministries, 1204 Oread, at 6 tonight.
"The main goal of the tournament is to get fraternity men together, have a fun social event and help raise money for the Habitat for Humanity," Shorten said.
The $6 ticket will let students sample cuisine from nine Latin American countries including Chile, Brazil, Bolivia, Venezuela and Peru. Tickets will be available at the door.
The festival will also feature live music and dancing.
The proceeds from the festival will go to CRIPDES, which is an organization dedicated to developing El Salvador's rural areas.
Justina Patterson, Pittsburg sophomore, said the group was trying to raise awareness of the problems in El Salvador and inform students about another of Lawrence's sister cities, El Papaturro, El Salvador.

Maintenance of older residence halls like GSP-Corbin, Oliver and McCollim contributed to the higher prices as well, Grosshans said.
"The likelihood of having repairs on these buildings is pretty high, for example, but Ellsworth, Templin and Lewis are brand new, so there's no effort there at all," he said.
Generally, students do not return to residence halls after their freshman years. More than 2,700 freshmen lived in residence halls last year, but only 424 sophomores lived there this year.
Although many students will move out of the residence halls, it is not always because of price.
Jessica Roper, Lawrence sophomore and GSP resident, said she will move to Meadowbrook Apartments next

TOPEKA — House members who oppose abortion failed yesterday to override Gov. Kathleen Sebelius' veto of a bill imposing additional regulations on abortion clinics.
The vote was 82-42 — two votes short of the minimum needed to send the bill to the Senate where some supporters felt they had the votes to put the legislation into law.
House can't override Sebelius' veto on clinic regulations
"I think we could have made it happen," said Sen. Nick Jordan (R-Shawnee)
The failure to overturn Sebelius' veto of April 15 angered supporters of the bill who vowed to campaign against House members who supported the veto and the governor in next year's elections.
"It's the kind of vote that's going to come back and haunt legislators who voted against it and the governor," said Mary Kay Culp, executive director of Kansans for Life. "The people of Kansas understand the need for this."
Absent the bill, abortion opponents argued only a complaint to Board of Healing Arts can result in a physician being sanctioned for unsafe conditions. They say it would have protected women's health.
"We're disappointed the political machinery works the way it does, that the governor peeled off key votes." Culp said.

Money
In 1997, the HALO used the money it got through block funding to bring Edwards James Olmos, an actor who played a lead role in "Stand and Deliver," to speak to the students about issues facing Hispanics.
The $3,050 Student Senate currently gives HALO would not cover the $10,000 to $15,000 needed to bring bim here today.

This year FNSA held its Big 12 Conference conference at the University along with its yearly powwow. Student Senate gave FNSA $7,505 for the powwow and did not give any money for the conference.
The following multicultural organizations received funding from Student Senate:
Raymond Red Corn, Shawnee freshman and FNSA treasurer, said the group had to raise approximately $10,000 to get to the about $18,000 needed for the conference and the powwow.
1999 Block Funding 2005 Line-Item
Black Student Union $20,000 $8,040
First Nations Student Association N/A $7,505
Asian-America Student Union $6,490 $3,300
Hispanic-American Leadership Organization $9,575 $3,050
smaller events like scholarship workshops for high school students or poetry readings or a speaker," Red Corn said.

Originally, the money student organizations received from block funding was handled by the students, which caused problems.
"We noticed that some of the groups had been mismanaging and misusing the funds," said Aaron Quisenberry, associate director of the Student Involvement and Leadership Center. "Student Senate decided to
remove block funding and put them back on line-item.
Applications for block funding are on a two-year cycle and these organizations won't be eligible to apply until November of 2006.
ON THE RECORD
Page said if block funding were reinstated, the money would be given to the Office of Multicultural Affairs that would handle the distribution of the money to the organizations.

Swear words express hell of a lot of emotions

Parole Board Member #1: Ah, we object to the term "urine-soaked hell hole," when you could have said "pee-pee-soaked heck hole." Bob: Cheerfully withdrawn.
While this quote more likely will elicit a few laughs from the pathetic people like myself who memorize every bit of Simpson's quote material, it also demonstrates the ridiculousness of our society's view toward cursing. If the institutions that guide our moral compass, such as Wal-Mart and the Parents Television Council, stopped for a moment in their war against the proliferation of words like "damn," they would realize they are on the losing side of a battle that has existed for centuries.
side of a black mailbox.
According to Mary Marshall's book,
"Bozzimaccio: Origins and Meanings of Oaths and Swear Words," the first-known swear words and subsequent sanctions date back to the Greeks. Back then swear words were just that; words to declare oaths. And, in the typical egalitarian fashion of the Greeks, swearing was a privilege given to all. But, Marshall wrote, "Children were allowed to swear by Hercules but not in the house. They could do it in the streets if they liked."
The Romans perhaps thought they could improve upon this and, according to Bill Bryson in "The Mother Tongue," they had 800 "dirty" words. Compared to our meager 20—not including things like "crap" or "boobs"—they even outdo us, except in euphemisms for sex, which luckily, the English language tops out at 1,200 words. To be fair, our culture hasn't been the only one obsessed with swearing. Apparently during Elizabethan times, during which the queen herself swore like a sailor, swearing was a sort of pastime. Marshall wrote that plays were filled with lowbrow language including tasty morsels such as "I fart at thee," "Thou whoreson knave"
and "A turd i' your teeth." It was during this period that the Puritans relocated and formed a much more moral society. Oh, wait.
The problem with trying to regulate swearing is that language has no ultimate authority and continually evolves over time. Swearing, because it is
associated more with low culture, tends to have a shorter life span. Trends come and go and cursing is a part of that. Bryson explains that "cunt" was at one time harmless. "Shit" was acceptable until the early 19th century, as was "prick" until the 18th century. But if you were to say the word "zooterkins" in 16th-century England or "puppy" in the 19th century, you would be making grave insults. Even just recently the word "queer" has undergone significant changes, from meaning odd to gay.
America has since become more egalitarian and lax in making class distinctions, but swear words up until post World War II were a badge of identity for the lower classes, said Donald Watkins, associate professor of linguistics at the University.
On the other hand, he said, anyone in high society would never dream of uttering a curse word. Now everyone can and almost does so willingly. He said many times professors would drop an f-bomb to make their students feel like they were on the same level. "Language is like dress, we use it to identify ourselves," Watkins said.
we use it to identify the entity. Even though swearing is an ephemeral entity, it lasts because cursing is flexible. Depending on how words are used, who uses them and what is said, a plethora of things can be considered curse words and evoke different emotions. The versatility is almost awe-inspiring. Usually it is reserved for people expressing their anger verbally in place of violent action, humor or for those people trying to make up for their limited vocabulary. In any case, cursing is here to stay, for good or for bad, because there is a need for it. Because while you can replace a four-letter word, you can never replace that unique feeling you have after stubbing your toe or discovering that your significant other has cheated on you.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Israelis need to defend themselves from Palestinian terrorists
I feel the need to respond to the issues that Sam Hopkins has risen in his column on Tuesday, "Jews must be self-critical in Middle East controversy."
Hopkins portrays Israelis as the antagonist. He neglected to mention, however, that of the 1,047 Israeli that have been killed by Palestinian terrorists since September 2000, 732 were civilians and of the 7,161 injured in terrorist attacks 5,009 were civilians. These women, men and children were attacked at Passover Seders, weddings, and night clubs.
What does Hopkins suggest that we do? Sit and watch as our families are murdered? Why should Israel not have the right to protect its citizens? Israel is not playing the game of "he hit me first" as Hopkins suggests, rather Israel is forced to respond to those who perpetrate these murderous actions.
Israel's former Prime Minister Ehud Barak offered Yasser Arafat the most far-reaching and comprehensive peace deal that would have created a Palestinian state close to five years ago. Instead of accepting this peace offer, the Palestinians responded with violence.
So how should Jews be "self-critical" of Israel? Should we criticize Israelis for defending themselves, initiating numerous peace agreements or being the only democracy in the Middle East?

Letter misses point of Pride Week; queers create awareness
Eric Schaumburg missed the point of David Ta's letter and of Pride Week. We were not trying to create controversy for controversy's sake; we were trying to create awareness.
The "Kiss In" was meant to put a spotlight on the ubiquitous homophobia in our society that makes a simple show of affection into a shocking spectacle when shared by two people of the same sex.
A photo of two women hugging does not raise awareness of anything. Two women hugging is already accepted in our society, so how does such a photo help advance queer rights or fight homophobia?
Mr. Schaumburg suggested that we might accomplish our goals by being moderate and placating our audience. If our goal was to remain in the closet forever, that would work great.
The goal of Pride Week, however, is to show that we're proud of who we are and to raise awareness of issues that affect the queer community.
If you think controversy never helped advance a cause or win rights for people, then you must not have heard of Rosa Parks, Malcom X, the Stonewall Riots or countless others. Can you name three historical figures who won rights for their people by being moderate and placating their audiences?

Spring brings pollen, sniffles and sneezes
Less outdoor activity best for fewer reactions
BY TY BEAVER
tbeaver@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Spring is here. Everything is green and growing, and the weather is starting to warm up. But for those with seasonal allergies, enjoyning spring is hard when living in a haze of sneezing, coughing and congestion.
For one student, allergy symptoms haven't been too bad. Kyle Hlavacek, Overland Park senior, said his allergies were less intense this year.
But for Shannon Stewart, Lee's Summit, Mo., junior, this year topped all the rest. Her allergies gave her bronchitis and two eve infections, all within a week.
Seasonal allergies are the result of the immune system reacting to pollen, Patricia Denning, Watkins Memorial Health Center chief of staff, said.
When the body encounters pollen, it produces an antibody and histamine. These cause side effects such as swelling, sinus congestion and red and itchy eyes, she said.
"They just seem to get worse every year," she said.
While most people have mild seasonal allergies, they can lead to more serious problems, such as eye and sinus infections.
People with asthma are also at risk because allergies can trigger breathing problems or an asthma attack. Denning said.
How to relieve allergies is a question people ask every year as they break out the tissues.
A reduction in outdoor activity is the best preventive measure any student could take, especially on windy days, Denning said. Those with eye problems can wear sunglasses to keep pollen out of their eyes.
An air conditioner can help filter the air, even if only the fan is on. Students should check the filter regularly to ensure the best results, she said. Students should also keep doors and windows shut.
"I know it feels good to feel the breeze, but you're just letting pollen in," Denning said.
Beyond prevention, there are prescription and over-the-counter drugs available to provide relief to students.
Prescription drugs can be most effective, but can cost between $1 to $1.50 per day per服.
Only students with the most severe problems should receive allergy shots. These are available by prescription from an allergen<sup>+</sup>.
Hlavacek said he was lucky this year. His allergies have been less intense this year for some reason but he didn't know why.
Because his allergies aren't bothering him, Havacek said he wouldn't stop going outside and would just rely on his medication.
But at Stewart's apartment the air conditioner is running.

OVER THE COUNTER OPTIONS

In the fight against seasonal allergies, students may be opposed to using conventional medications to relieve their allergies.
For those students, there might be an alternative they can use to stifle their sniffles.
Honey has been used as a remedy for various problems for centuries, John Brown, professor of molecular biosciences, said. In recent years, studies have shown that consuming locally produced honey may help reduce seasonal allergies because honey contains
local pollen, which people have the most exposure to.
"It's not just an old wives' tale." he said.
The body doesn't usually develop an immune response to things ingested, which is called an oral tolerance, Brown said.
The theory is that if one consumes locally made honey, the body will adjust to the pollen it was made from and lessen the chance of allergic reaction.
Unfortunately, the studies aren't definitive, and there may be other factors that make honey an inappropriate remedy. Students may have a food allergy and be unable to consume honey.
Honey contains the bacteria Clostridium botulinum, which can poison children one year old and younger because their intestines allow the bacteria to thrive.
Brown also warned that students with children should not give honey to them.
These are exceptions, however. Brown said students should still investigate the possibility by talking to an allergist.
Besides honey, there are other natural alternatives students can use to relieve their allergies. Tyra Kalman, Community Mercantile wellness manager, said.
middleman and ingest straight pollen. Since allergy season began, sales of bee pollen have gone up, she said. Other natural alternatives include elderberry juice, pleurisy root and nettle, Kalman said.
Students can skip the bee
While Kalman sad her allergies were too severe to be treated just with natural remedies, she said they are healthier.
"Anything we can do to get off the pharmaceuticals is good." Kalman said.
Conventional medicine does have its place, but she said that if people were able to use an alternative, they should do so.

"And I said, 'What did you do?' "He said, 'I shot my dad.'"
On Wednesday, Allen County Attorney Jerry B. Hathaway told reporters that the 10-year-old boy, whose name hasn't been released, was charged with first-degree murder in the shotgun slaying of his father, Robert D. Hamlin, 43. A closed juvenile court hearing was conducted in the county seat of lola, eight miles north of Humboldt.
Hathaway couldn't say if additional charges were filed, if prosecutors would try to move the case or if the child still was in custody.
State law allows juvenile offenders to be held until age 23.

Kansas town will bottle well water
LONGFORD — For years people have talked about the quality water from this small town in central Kansas, calling it good enough to bottle. Now they're getting ready to share the wealth
The two wells three-quarters of a mile west of this Clay
county community were drilled into the Kiowa aquifer in the 1930s. Residents have bragged about their water as being the best in the state, often with suggestions to bottle and sell it
The Longford Water Co. is about to start selling the local water as "Kiowata" in stores within a 50 mile radius.

Record-setting games
Postseason play not out of reach
It was a big week for the Kansas softball team,undoubtedly the biggest of any so far this season.
SOFTBALL. 3-2, 1-0
First there was last weekend's sweep of Oklahoma, which, before it happened, seemed an impossible outcome. The Sooners were the fifth-ranked team in the country, and the Jayhawks hadn't swept a ranked opponent since 2001. Oklahoma was also the top-hitting team in the Big 12 Conference heading into the match-up, leading the league in batting average, runs, RBI and on-base percentage. Kansas, meanwhile, was ranked near the bottom in pitching.
The Jayhawks' first victory on Saturday seemed improbable enough — a blown lead in the top of the seventh inning, a comeback home run in the bottom of the eighth, capped with junior second baseman Jessica Moppin's game-winning hit in the ninth.
That's not how the balls are supposed to bounce for a team that's only 3-7 in conference when it's playing a national powerhouse. And heck, the second game in the series wasn't even close. Freshman pitcher Christina Ross shut down the Sooners with her four-hitter in the 4-1 victory. So much for that dynamic Oklahoma offense; chalk up the sweep for the lavihawks

The Kansas softball team extended its win streak to six in record fashion with two victories against North Dakota State yesterday.
The Jayhawks won the first game 3-2 and the second game 1-0 at Arrocha Ballpark.
Jessica Moppin, junior second baseman, tied the all-time Kansas career home run record of 23 in the first game, hitting her ninth of the season. She is currently tied with Leah Tabb and Shannon Stanwix
in the Kansas record books.
Destiny Frankenstein, junior shortstop, made her way into Kansas softball history with two home runs on the day, one in each game. She's now tied for the single-season home run record with 12 on the year. She is currently tied with Tabb, who hit 12 in the 2001 season.
Serena Settlemier, junior pitcher, tied her career single-game strike-out record with 10 and pitched a shutout in the second game. She said the shutout and helping the team win felt better than tying her record.

With only 12 conference games left in the regular season, the Jayhawks are putting added emphasis on their Sunflower Showdown series this weekend against Kansas State. The Jayhawks are 4-10 in Big 12 Conference play, stuck in last place. But a series victory or sweep against
Kansas State could possibly vault Kansas as high as sixth place in the league. Kansas coach Ritch Price is careful when talking about a sweep but he said a series vic-

Penn, Drake Relays to divide track team

Breaking up is hard to do. Luckily, the KU Track and Field team has to do so for only one weekend.
The team will split squads and travel to Des Moines, Iowa, for the Drake Relays, and Philadelphia for the Penn Relays. Brooklyn Hann, Sheldon Battle and Amy Linnen will lead their half of the team to the Penn Relays. One of the most historic meets in the nation, the Penn Relays will host premier Top 25 teams. On the men's side, Arkansas, Auburn, and Indiana will take on the Jayhawks. On the women's side, South Carolina, Stanford and Texas will compete.
The-KU women's track and field team broke into the Top 25 this week with the help from a stellar team effort last week at the Kansas Relays. They are tied for 23rd in the nation, along with Kansas State, Arkansas and Wake Forest. Hann, senior runner, ranks second in the 100-meter hurdles and third in the triple jump. She said she took the time last weekend at the Kansas Relies to rest and practice before the Penn Relays.
"It's just a good day to relax and jump far," Hann said. "Hopefully, next week I'll do better."
Battle, junior thrower, ranks first in the Big 12 Conference in the men's shot put. He also ranks second in the discus. Linnen finished second in the pole vault at the Kansas Relays last weekend, but still ranks first in the Big 12
Abby Emsick, junior thrower from Council Bluffs, Iowa, will travel to the Penn relays with a victory fresh in her mind. She won the women's discus last weekend at the Kansas Relays with a throw of 168-feet-8.5

Championship will end season Team prepared to pay back rivals
Members of the Kansas rowing team will compete in the Big 12 Conference Championship where they will face two teams they lost two earlier this season. The women will compete against rivals Texas and Kansas State tomorrow in Austin, Texas.
The rowers have been competing every weekend, except last, since the middle of March to prepare for the regatta championship. The team was supposed to race against Cincinnati and Buffalo last weekend, but the regatta was canceled because of severe weather. Senior rower Ashlea Kramer said the time off would not be a detriment.
"Competing after an off-weekend shouldn't affect us," Kramer said. "It actually makes us more motivated and more pumped for tomorrow. We're ready to race."
Kansas coach Rob Catloth also said the unexpected break should not be a problem.
Kansas raced against Texas in a dual match-up March 26 and raced against K-State in the Kansas Cup April 9. The Jayhawks Varsity Eight boat lost the Kansas Cup by one second and lost against Texas by 10 seconds.
"We've competed in so many races that it shouldn't affect us one way or the other," he said. "We would've liked to race, but the bad weather could've been helped."
"I think they're ready to prove themselves to these two teams." assistant coach Jennifer Myers said. "I know they're excited to see how much speed they've gained since the last time they raced them."
Racing against rivals always gets the team pumped up, Kramer said.
Docking
them again because we're going to be able to prove to them that we're right up there with them," Kramer said. "We're all excited for this."
Kansas has always had a huge rivalry with Texas, she said.
"We've been doing a lot better in practice so we'll see how things go against Texas," Kramer said. "It's a school that we always struggle with. I think tomorrow we'll be as close to them as we've ever been."
Catloth said he noticed improvement in practice.
"We're really starting to perform well," he said. "It'll be good to see them row with the ability and high level that they're at now."
The season will come to a close shortly, with only two more competition dates. Kansas could compete in the NCAA Central/South Regionals in two weeks and then the NCAA Championships, May 19 through 27.
"They need to race the best races they possibly can," Myers said. "The best races have to be now."
"In all races, we have to be giving it our all," said Kramer, who is competing in the Second Varsity Eight boat. "No one should say at the end that they could've rowed better in the last 1,000 meters or in the first. We should leave there with no regrets."
Kansas is taking five boats for tomorrow: first and second varsity eights, first varsity four, first novice eight, and first novice four.
The team was scheduled to leave at 5:20 a.m. today from Kansas City International Airport. Races will start at 8:20 a.m. tomorrow and continue at 20-minute increments until 10 a.m. The team will return at 8 tomorow night.

"If we win the first two games, then absolutely we'll go out there and go for the jugular," Price said. "But any time you talk about sweeping you set yourself up for failure on the weekend. We want to play hard each day and win each day to win the series."
Kansas State (21-18, 6-12 Big 12) is no longer the doormat of the Big 12. The Wildcats have won seven of their last eight games, highlighted by taking two out of three from Texas A&M last weekend. That triumph moved them into the eighth place in the conference, which would allow them to be the last team into the Big 12 Tournament next month.
The Wildcats are led by second-year coach Brad Hill, who was hired to build the program from the ground up. He won the 2003 Division II National Championship at Central

On offense, senior outfielder Terry Blunt paces the Wildcats. Plugged into the leadoff spot in most games, Blunt is batting .348 and has an on-base percentage of .426.
Junior right Adam Cowart anchors the Kansas State pitching staff. In 10 starts, he has a record of 6-2 with a 4.06 ERA. He also has struck out 46 batters while walking only seven.
Kansas junior outfielder A.J. Van Slyke said that he and his teammates would be ready to slug it out with K-State.
"We know we can hit," Van Slyke said. "We need to pick up the pitchers if they're struggling or the defense when it's struggling. Eventually everything will come together."
One important piece of the puzzle is junior closer Don Czyz. He has struggled lately but

Czyz said he was starting to come around after the New Mexico State game.
I nud some tough times last week, with a blown save and two losses, a lot of earned runs and hits," Czyz said. "I hope I'm back on track now, and the way my stuff was tonight, I think I am."
"I told him in the airport on Sunday that a year ago he had two or three bad outings and then went out against Missouri and closed out two victories." Price said. "He was lights out the rest of the season. Hopefully that game will get him going in

After all, the sweep against Oklahoma was certainly the biggest pair of victories Kansas has enjoyed this season, but they were not the only big victories. Kansas' 5-3 victory at Missouri earlier this month was big, as was Ross' three-hit shutout at Nebraska last week.
But what those victories had in common is that each was followed by a loss. After beating the Tigers, the Jayhawks were swept by the Bears of Baylor, and after shucking the Huskers, they fell to Blue Jays of Creighton.
can beat the best team on a given day. Sustained success, on the other hand, is far more difficult to come by.
Again, it comes back to sustained success — the difference between winning isolated games and winning
consistently.
Following the climactic series last weekend, it would have been easy to come out flat this week in two non-conference double-headers against Arkansas and North Dakota State. Neither of those teams is Oklahoma. Arkansas has twice as many losses as victories, and North Dakota is a .500 team. It would have been easy to not get sufficiently pumped up, to not work hard enough after the epic victories against the Sooners.
But not this time. Kansas swept its double-header against Arkansas on Tuesday and did the same against North Dakota State yesterday. The Jayhawks beat the Razorbacks with their bats, scoring a combined 13 runs during the two games. They beat the Bison with pitching and defense, allowing only two runs the first game and winning with a
shutout in the second.
By sweeping yesterday, the Jayhawks pushed their win streak to six, their largest such streak of the season, and have momentum on their side with five games remaining in the regular season.
"This is the time of the year when you want to be hot," coach Tracy Bunge said after yesterday's victories.
And it's a good thing the Jayhawks are hot, because they'll possibly need to win out for a shot at playing in the postseason. But if they can hit the home runs — like they did with four yesterday — and continue to shut down opposing offenses, well then, five more victories in a row doesn't seem out of the question.

Colorado ends Kansas'tennis season in Big 12 tournament
The Kansas tennis season came to an end yesterday, as the Jayhawks fell to the Colorado Buffaloes, 4-2, in the first round of the Big 12 tournament, in Austin, Texas.
Even though it was a disappointing loss, I am happy with how the team competed today," Kansas coach Army Hall-Holt said. "We have had to overcome a lot of obstacles this season, but I am very proud of the effort put forth today."
Kansas (4-17, 3-8 Big 12) lost the doubles point for the eighth consecutive match.
In singles, Kansas earned two victories, courtesy of freshmen Elizaveta Avdeeva and Lauren Hommell.
Avdevea defeated Colorado's Lynzee Kever in straight sets, 6-4, 6-2. Less than two weeks ago, Kever knocked off Avdevea in three sets.
Hommell disposed of Martina Sedivec, 6-3, 6-2.
The Buffaloes, behind solid team play, maintained the momentum after winning the doubles point.
Kansas, despite high hopes at the start of the season, ended the year on a eight-match losing streak.
Kendra Strandemo ousted Kansas junior Christine Skoda, 6-2, 6-4. Also, Jessica Vanderdys defeated sophomore Brittany Brown, 7-5, 6-2.
Colorado advanced to the second round and will face Nebraska on Friday.

Offensively, the team got all three runs off solo home runs. Elle Pottort, freshman catcher, made a home run along with Frankenstein and Moppin in the first game. However, Bunge said the team didn't swing the bats well as a whole.
Offensively in game two, the lone run came from Frankenstein, who hit a solo home run in the third inning. Nettie Fierros, junior third baseman, was the only other Jayhawk to get a hit in the second game.
Though players broke Kansas records all day, Bunge said the team played flat in both games. She said she felt the team survived the day and was fortunate to win.
"We didn't come to play." she said.
The Jayhawks will head back to Big 12 Conference play in Lubbock, Texas, where Kansas will take on Texas Tech in a weekend series.
"We need to finish out strong and hope the ball bounces our way," Bunge said of the remaining six games for the regular season.
Frankenstein said the team was heading to Lubbock with confidence after winning its last six games. First pitches are scheduled for 2 p.m. on Saturday and noon on Sunday.

University to build Creationist Science Center on the Hill
BY OWEN MORIS
satire@hansan.com
TONGUE IN BEAK WRITER
The University of Kansas Alumni Association announced yesterday that an anonymous donor gave the University $10 million to fund a building and start a new science department devoted to the research and study of the theory of intelligent design. The building/department still have to be approved by the Board of Regents and Chancellor Robert Hemenway. If given the green light this would create the first science department of its kind at any accredited university in the United States. According to the current plans, the building would stand where the
Multicultural Resource Center currently is located. The MRC is already scheduled to move into the expansion of the Kansas Union between the Union and the Union's parking garage in August 2006.
If plans go smoothly, crews could demolish the old MRC building and start construction on the new building as soon as summer 2006. An early design shows a three-story building with classrooms on the first level, a church on the second level and research labs and offices on the third level.
"This is a glorious day which proves science and religion do not have to be opposites, but can study and learn from one another." Reverend Paul Brown of the
First Divinity Church of God said in a phone interview. "Intelligent design will finally be taught and scrutinized with the same scientific tools that evolution has been. Maybe this can finally allow scientists to come to a conclusion based on science and not on their own biases against Christianity."
Artist rendering hv Ginny Weatherman/KANSAN
The design shows the building would have a 20-foot-tall statue of praying hands at the base of the entrance, which the donor requested, saying it represented "all scientists who pray that man will one day find the real truth about its past."
"I think it is a good idea," Robert Biggums, Hutchinson sophomore, said. "I always hear all this talk about all this proof about evolution and how studies
"We will be the laughing stock of every other science department in the country," Alan Gentry, assistant professor of biology, said. "I'm praying that this does not go through, though not in the same way that these people pray. There's so much real research that's in desperate need of financing."
confirm it, but they always use big confusing words like primordial and environmental adaptation. The Bible explains it in two simple words, 'Adam and Eve.' I've never seen evolution, but I have seen the Bible."
THE CHAPEL OF THE NATIVAL OF SAINT PAUL
"That's just the small minded simpleton reasoning we've come to expect from those scientists," Reverend Brown said in response to Gentry's comment.
Separation of church and state will only occur as a result of steel and sheet rock at the University's new Creationist Science Center. The church will house God on the second floor, classrooms on the first floor and research labs and offices on the third floor.
The chancellor's office had no comment when contacted yesterday, though it is known that the chancellor keeps a pair of praying
hands on his desk April Fool's!
SPRING BREAK LIES
— Edited by Jennifer Voldness
Break: 'not awesome'
BY CHRIS CRAWFORD
ccrawford@hansan.com
TONGUE IN BEAK WRITER
Following last week's spring break, Heidi Mellencall, Blue Valley junior, told friends and roommates that she "raged" in Cancun, Mexico, for the past week. She admitted yesterday that she in fact spent her break at home at her parents' house.
"I couldn't believe it," Staci Bettendorf, Chicago junior and Mellencall's friend, said. "She's so tan and she talked about being in a wet T-shirt contest. She said she hooked up with Fat Joe."
Mellencall came clean, saying that she went to a tanning salon every other day to give herself a bronze, spring-break glow.
She admitted that most of her Cancun stories came from half-hour segments which aired on MTV's "Spring Break" series.
"I actually dook up with Fat Joe, but he works at the Subway around the corner from my parents." Mellencall said.
"She told us she was a contestant on 50 Cent's 'Spring Break Candy Shop,' whatever that means," Mellencall's mother Judy said. "She doesn't even like sweets."
FRIENDSHIP
Mellencall told friends that she met Beyonce and that she seemed really smart. She also said Rob Schneider was better looking in person.*
"We should have figured it out then," friend Heather Stevens said.
Mellencall tried to emulate the Cancun spring break she had hoped for by not bathing regularly, drinking excessively and acting slutty, which she said included entering a wet T-shirt contest in downtown Kansas City. Mo.
"I really was gross," Mellencall said. "I woke up most mornings sweating booze. I let a guy named Fat Joe do tequila shots out of my belly button because he gave me extra Subway stamps, and I was in a wet T-shirt contest with five ladies my mom's age who had more scars than teeth."
Junior Heidi Mellencall celebrates her 13th beer at the wet bar in her parent's basement. Mellencall drank alone in the split-level's dark first floor most nights during spring break. Mellencall claims she's rated PG for "Party Girl."

KU GETS EXTREME MAKEOVER
Hot, new image for University
BY SAM HOPKINS
satire@kansan.com
TONGUE IN BEAK WRITER
The University of Kansas has again hired outside consultants to help shape the school's image. This time though, our beloved Jayhawk mascot may end up revealing a bare midriff and a lower back tattoo.
HotProduct, Inc., has come on board the University's public relations ship with plenty of accomplishments under its belt, including MTV's "Real World vs. Road Rules Challenge" series and musician John Tesh's 2002 "Boo-Ya!" World Tour.
"I wouldn't say we create new personalities for clients, but we sure overhaul the old ones," HotProdukt co-founder and chief operating officer Lesley Franks said by phone from the firm's New York headquarters. "Kansas students can rest assured that we will add to the school's existing image, not take away from it."
Some disagree, including KU Bookstore employee Rachel Lyons, Salina sophomore, who said, "They'll probably want us to print Applebee's logos on exam book books or something. I don't trust them."
Consensus or not, plans are under way for the University's first HotProdukt-coordinated lecture series to be called "J-Hizze."
"We wanted to give you guys Flavor Flav and Mini-Me or someone who would really get a rise to start things off. But then the administration asked us to suggest someone a little more academic," Franks said. "So, the inaugural lecture will be given by author Randolph Craydsale, whose 1999 book, 'Go Ahead and Hit Me!', was a best seller. He's smart, but he's got an edge for sure. The things he says about carbon not really being the basis of life on Earth really get a rise out of people."
Craysdale's opens his 2002 pamphlet "Carbon, Schmarbon!" with:
Go Ahead and HIT ME!
"So we should just believe some scientists because they did a few experiments? Give me a break. If I'm made of the same stuff as charcoal, then I'd like to see someone try to throw me in a grill and cook hot dogs with me at the family barbecue." Craysdale wrote. "I'll give you a good punch in the gut before that happens, buddy!"
Craysdale's confrontational tone and pseudo-scientific analysis have not, made him any friends in academic circles, but University administration officials remain open to HotProductukt plans, despite their apprehension.
"We have faith in the overarching goal of increased exposure for the University of Kansas," Tammy Weidrich, vice provost for media relations, said. "I think students have to take the good with the bad and look toward the future. I'm from Milwaukee, and everyone thought the Jeffrey Dahmer case would bring shame to our city. But then, 10 years later, we got a new baseball stadium."
Following the above example, even questionable media attention may allow the University to reap long-term benefits. Students and faculty will soon be able to voice their approval or dismay at the school's short-term plans and Craysdale himself.

Actually I do laugh all the way to the bank
Hi there. You don't know me personally, though you might have driven by one of my summer mansions before and asked, "What kind of person can afford that kind of place?"
Well, I'll tell you what kind of person: Me. And you know how I made all that money? By charging students like you hundreds of dollars for textbooks.
Oh sure, there's something written on those pages, probably something that your professor told you is important to learn.
Well, I'm going to let you in on a little secret: I really don't know or care what's on those pages. Sometimes we spellcheck them, but usually not. Half that stuff is made up anyways. Let's stop talking about textbooks. I don't spend much time on them.
In fact, I would say I spend 10 percent of my time working on textbooks and the other 90 percent swimming in my big vault of money. Let me tell you — it's the life! What? Do I hear you complaining? Are you questioning

me?
Bam, I just raised the prices 20 bucks. You know I could raise prices, and you would still pay them.
Besides, why are you upset? It's just daddy's dinero anyways. Oh? What that's? You have to work two jobs just to pay for school? You really can't afford it? Well that's too bad. I have to go to work, too. Though at my work, I sit at a gold table with the text execs, shouting out random prices and deciding if you would pay them. The answer of course is yes, but still it always gets a big laugh when someone shouts out a number like $7,332. I imagine you going without food for a semester
in order to scrape together money to buy one book. Oh, that's a deep belly laugh. That one always gets me.
I'm sorry, what were we talking about again? Oh, about me laughing to the bank. Actually that's not entirely true. I never actually go into the bank.
I just wait outside in my stretch limo while my two man-child assistants wheel the money in on wheelbarrows. The laughing part though is correct — sometimes for hours. Whenever I'm feeling
down I just think about some outrageous deed we've done. Like the philosophy book we put out last semester that was 80 percent pictures we took off the Internet. The price? $220. That's right, 220 big ones. That's more than 90 percent of what philosophy majors will make a year after they graduate.
Oh, the laughs.

Gays get opportunity for 'Straight Camp'
Legislators in Kansas decided to kick queers while they're down this week. Conservatives and religious leaders proposed an addition to the gay marriage ban, on which the public will vote Tuesday.
"Because our conservative religious stronghold will be at the polls anyway, we may as well try to wipe out the gay population altogether," said Sen. Phil Journey, (R-Haysville).
Wednesday, Journey, along with other conservatives and religious leaders, said that a ban on gay marriage was not enough. He proposed a six-step plan to eliminate homosexuals called the Gays Go to Straight Camp Act. A Citadel-trained task force would round up all gays and lesbians in Kansas and take them to a camp where they could be "corrected," Journey said. For now the plan focuses on gay men.
AUSTIN CASTER
acaster@kansan.com

"My plan would not only eliminate the gay population, but also help the economy by creating thousands of jobs," journey said.
For homosexuals to be released back into society, they will have to pass six rigorous tests including fashion, hunting, fishing, beer-guzzling, baseball and scratching/croft adjustments.
Prada, Gucci and Louis Vuitton would be stripped from all gay men's closets. Journey said.
Each male camper would wear a uniform composed of an adjustable baseball cap, a NASCAR tank top, dark blue sweat pants and hiking boots. Flannel button-downs would be distributed during cold weather.
"We have to get them used to dressing normal," said the Rev. Jerry Johnston, pastor of First Family Church in Overland Park.
The Reverend proposed setting aside a wildlife reserve for the hunting segment. Even if bucks are not in season, their deaths will serve the greater cause, he said.
"God wanted man to be master over animals didn't be?" Johnston said. "I think our Savior would agree that this is a worthy cause."
The reserve would also be used for fishing. The homosexuals will have to catch and clean a bass no shorter than 28 inches.
Proponents agree that beer-guzzling is a valuable part of both hunting and fishing. Baseball, the next test, is considered one of most important.
"It's called America's pastime for a reason," Journey said. "We'll juice them up with roids if we have to, as long as they can hit a freaking baseball when they leave."
While the topic of baseball was on the floor, several sports fans brought up the importance of butt-scratching and adjusting oneself, so the Legislature considered adding a clause to include those behaviors.
Liberals led by Rep. Paul Davis (D-Lawrence) called the plan ludicrous.
"We're setting America back another 50 years," Davis said. "Doesn't the Bible say that God loves all people?"
Conservatives said because they had the majority, they did not expect to have difficulty passing the amendment.
"Liberals threatened to move to Canada when Bush was reelected," Journey said. "In time they will conform."

'Movie guy' dispels movie myths
YOU HOLD THE POPCORN. ILL HOLD THE TALKING
Dear Movie Guy.
Man, "Easy Rider" is so trippy. What were Dennis Hopper and Peter Fonda smoking?
— Buzzed in Bonner Springs
Dear Buzzed.
Shortly after the film's release Hopper said, "We smoked hashish, right out of the peace pipe. Chief Hummingbird flew down on the back of a griffin and smoked us all out. I remember Jack Nicholson and Gen. George Armstrong Custer playing darts in the back of a bar in San Antonio. The rest is hazy."
Dear Movie Guy,
Growing up, my favorite movie was "The Godfather." I especially liked the part where the Hollywood producer wakes up with the stallion's head in his bed. Was that a real stallion's head in that scene or was it a fake one?
— Remembering in Russell
The head belonged to
STEPHEN SHUPE
sshupe@kansan.com
I
Dear Remembering.
Dear Movie Guy,
Tony the Horse, the notorious hit man. Tony worked for the Tataglia brothers, who sent him to kill Luca Brasi on the night of Connie Corleone's wedding. The four-legged assassin, who had been seen drinking heavily at the Corleone estate that afternoon, fell down a flight of stairs while on his way up to Luca's apartment. Luca shot the horse, hacked off his head and mailed it to Hollywood.
When I watch "The Empire Strikes Back," I'm always impressed by the puppet work in the scenes with Yoda. Was that a challenge for the filmmakers?
- Impressed in lola
Dear Impressed,
George Lucas threatened
to fire Yoda twice on that picture. He used The Force to make the crew forget about scenes he didn't want to shoot. "Yoda, though a formidable Jedi master, is not a professional actor. He keeps humping my leg between takes," Luke Skywalker said at the time. Yoda replied, "Insolent, my young Padawan is." Not surprisingly, Lucas chose to create a digital Yoda for the new "Star Wars" films.
Dear Movie Guy,
My wife thinks Frodo and Sam have a homosexual relationship in "The Lord of the Rings." I think this is one of the greatest platonic male friendships in movie history. Who's right?
Platonic in Prairie Village
Dear Platonic,
Your wife's right — Frodo and Sam are all about hobbit love.

LAW RANKINGS
Law school drops in national rankings
BY NELM MULKA
nmulka@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Here are the KU School of Law's rankings from the US News and World Report's America's Best Graduate Schools
Edition year Grads employed at graduation Grads employed after 9 months Student faculty ratio Rank
2004 60.7 percent 93.1 percent 13.9:1 63
2005 43 percent 83.3 percent 15.6:1 100
Source: US News and World Report
The school appeared as No. 63 last year and slid to No. 100
Decreases in employment rates and an increase in student versus teacher ratio are the reasons behind the drop, according to the report.
Those numbers can be misleading and students have nothing to worry about, said Stephen McAllister, law school dean.
Faculty who are away on sabbatical were left out of the ratio, McAllister said. At least three professors were away when the magazine gathered its information. Two of those have returned
since and have resumed teaching.
Ranking numbers suggest the school has about 16 students per faculty member.
McAllister estimated that there were 520 law students for 36 faculty members, which equals about 14 students per faculty member.
One of the two employment categories cited that 43 percent of KU law school students were employed at graduation in 2005. But only a portion of alumni
responded to the survey, which skews numbers, McAllister said.
The question is whether the law school needs to do something else, he said.
"We could coerce them if they choose not to respond," he said. "Maybe they can't pick up their diploma if they don't respond."
Data is also dated, McAllister said.
The data reflects employment rates of the 2003 class in February 2004. McAllister said.
For the class of 2004, the
employment rate as of February 2005 was 90 percent, McAllister said.
That data will be in the April 2006 but not April 2005, edition because US News and Word Report only collects data in the fall.
McAllister speculated that the bad economy was another reason for the drop-off in jobs.
The law school doesn't do enough to get those numbers.

IFC denies first appeal
Council upholds decision to expel campus chapter
BY ERIC SORRENTINO

KANSAN STAFF WRITER
The Interfraternity Council unanimously voted to uphold the decision to expel Phi Kappa Theta fraternity from the University of Kansas yesterday.
Phi Kappa Theta, 1111 W. 11th St., appealed to the executive board of the IFC Tuesday, on grounds that its punishment was too severe.
The IFC filed 24 charges against the fraternity for
The IFC expelled the chapter after it had an unregistered party at its house on Feb. 19, where police confiscated 16 kegs of beer, $517 in cash and signs that advertised the party.
recruitment and alcohol policy violations.
"We felt that a more lenient punishment would not have the intended effect to curb the behavior for this chapter," Scott Shorten, IFC president, said.
The chapter has 30 days to appeal for a second and final time.
The general assembly of the IFC, which consists of a representative and the president of each chapter, would conduct the final hearing.
Shorten said the IFC would be open to a second appeal.
Matt Moreno, Phi Kappa Theta president and Wichita sophomore, would not say whether the fraternity would attempt a second appeal.
A decision will be made after his visit to the national chapter this weekend in Indianapolis.

Win or lose, Rich Clarkson enjoys every Final Four, and he hasn't missed the NCAA men's basketball tournament in 47 years.
But then again, that's all just part of a dav's work.
As thousands of fans witness the winning shot of the championship game, Clarkson captures the coaches' and teams' reactions to the final buzzer on film.

For more than 50 years, the 1956 graduate has worked his way to the top of the photography business.
When Clarkson captures the memorable moments at this weekend's Final Four in St. Louis, his 50th tournament shoot, the 72-year-old Lawrence native won't be surprised if photographers are capturing his own movements through their telephoto lenses.
If another journalist or photographer exists who has worked 50 Final Fours, nobody knows about it, Clarkson said.
"He's one of a kind guy," said Bill Snead, Lawrence Journal-World senior editor. "I don't know anyone else like him."
As a photographer for the Lawrence Journal-World and The Topeka Capital Journal, Clarkson mentored Snead for nine years. Clarkson has established himself as a taskmaster of perfection, but he takes pride in teaching young photojournalists the art of
Rich Clarkson, 1956 graduate, took this photo of Wilt Chamberlain, then a freshman at the University of Kansas, in 1956. Clarkson realized a shot of Chamberlain seated would accurately depict the basketball star's high waist and long legs that composed his towering seven-foot body. This photo received a spot in Sports Illustrated.
Because of the experiences of his last 50 years, Clarkson said he would never get tired of basketball. The easy "walk-up" atmosphere has made the Final Four more enjoyable than the Superbowl and the World Series,
which he has covered several times.
photography, Snead said.
"I just love college basketball," he said. "I think it's one of the best games. I think the Final Four during the years that I've been doing it has developed into a premier sports event."
Clarkson continuing his career at his age has impressed Snead, but Clarkson said he has cut back on the number of sporting events he covers. Clarkson photographed about 20 sporting events this past year, but he used to cover about 100 events per year, he said.
Now he personally covers track and field events and the Final Four because he enjoys those events the most.
Along the way to national prominence, Clarkson has worked for several newspapers and magazines, including the Lawrence Journal-World and The Topeka Capital-Journal, National Geographic and Sports Illustrated.
Clarkson resides in Denver where he owns a photography company that covers all 88 NCAA championships, and the pro teams the Denver Broncos and the Colorado Rockies.
Clarkson's passion for photography began as an activity for the yearbook at Liberty Memorial High School — now Lawrence High — before it transformed into one of the most prominent photography careers in the country.
A giant of an opportunity
By his senior year of high school,
"I just love college basketball.I think it's one of the best games.I think the Final Four during the years that I've been doing it has developed into a premier sports event."
Rich Clarkson Photographer
Clarkson had snapped shots of KU football and basketball games as a freelance photographer.
His ability did not go unnoticed. He received a personal invitation to the 1952 Final Four in Seattle, his first, from basketball coach Forrest "Phog" Allen.
Clarkson enjoyed covering KU sports, but it would not lead him to his dream job at Sports Illustrated, a new magazine at the time.
That changed when basketball standout Wilt Chamberlain arrived on campus, shortly after Clarkson graduated from the University in 1956.
As a freelance photographer, Clarkson took Chamberlain's picture at the beginning of Chamberlain's freshman season. He took several pictures of the star dunking and jumping, but Clarkson said he couldn't depict just how tall Chamberlain stood.
Clarkson realized a seated shot of Wilt would maximize the effect of the star's high waist and long legs to accurately depict his towering seven-foot frame.
"I thought, gee, if I could just get him to sit down in one of these folding chairs and tie his shoes, that might make him look taller," Clarkson said.
And it did
Clarkson sent several 8-by-10 copies of the pictures to Sports Illustrated in New York.
The photo editor at the time, Jerry Ashter, received Clarkson's photos on the Monday before he planned to send a photographer to Lawrence for a piece on Chamberlain. The magazine used Clarkson's photo and never sent a photographer to Lawrence.
"I thought that was the epitome of success at that time." Clarkson said.
Three months later, an editor at the magazine gave him his first assignment. What was supposed to be a single photo from a Kansas vs. iowa State basketball game became a six-page spread after another story fell through.
Three years later, the magazine selected Clarkson to cover all basketball games for Sports Illustrated.

Oedipus and Jocasta, played by Aron Carlson, KU graduate, and Jan Chapma, KU graduate, express their feelings for each other during a dress rehearsal Wednesday evening. Paul Lim adapted and directed "Jocasta" by Michael Fabien for an English Alternative Theatre and Lawrence Arts Center production, which opened last night. It can be seen in the Lawrence Arts Center, 940 New Hampshire St., tonight and tomorrow at 8 p.m. and Sunday at 2:30 p.m.
Rumors are wrong; 'Jocasta' clothes stay on
By NEL MULKA
nmulka@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
The rumors floating around the department of English aren't true. No one is naked in the English Alternative Theatre's production of Michele Fabien's full-length play "Jocasta."
Some people in the department might be sensitive about partial nudity, but the showing of skin is comparable to a beach movie, said Zacory Boatright, Topeka senior and stage manager.
However, "Oocasta," a retelling of classical Greek playwright Sophocles "Oedipus Rex" from the viewpoint of the queen and mother, has intimate scenes with the actors wearing revealing costumes. "Oedipus," the Greek myth where Oedipus kills his father and then marries Jocasta, his mother, is taught in freshman English classes.
The nudity rumor might have originated from an e-mail sent to teachers explaining that this version contained more mature material than what's taught in class, said Paul Lim, director of the play and English professor.
Boatright said.
The theatre is producing Fabien's version of the myth so students who are studying the tale can see it come to life. Lim said. It will also inspire classroom discussion and give a new perspective of the play, he said.
"So often, modern audiences shy away from Greek theatre," said Dianne Reyner, Lawton, Okla., graduate student, who plays Jocasta in the play. "I think it will enhance people's understanding from it."
"It's hot, it's sexy and very now,"
Fabien's play was written in 1981 and was intended to be a one-man show, but Lim adapted it to include a five-person cast featuring a younger and older Jocasta and Oedipus and a narrator.
Making it into a five-person play shows the conflict between the characters better than the one-person version, Boatright said.
When Lim read the script, he said he heard five voices in his head from the lines.
One example is that the play shows what actually happens to Jocasta, whereas she was off-stage in Sophocles' script.
“In Sophocles’ play, Jocasta is seen
kills herself,” Lim said.

Fabien's play is rooted with modern-feminist themes and female desire, Lim said.
"It's about how men look at women and how women should be allowed to look at men," Lim said. "It's more acceptable in society for an older man to date a younger woman, but it's frowned upon for an older woman to date a younger man."

Pillshaw said his position with the IFC was in jeopardy after a Tuesday meeting in which his position on the council was questioned.
would take a two-thirds vote of the IFC to kick him off the commission.
He said the IFC could vote on his risk management position during the next meeting on April 12. He said it
Shorten said Pillshaw's position remained safe at this point unless he had some sort of involvement with the unregistered party. Shorten could not, however, confirm a decision on Pillshaw's position next week.
Members of Phi Kappa Theta will not have their house next year and are not allowed to pledge another fraternity. Pillshaw said that many people from the 35-member fraternity would move to Highpointe, 2001 W. Sixth St., apartments next year.
"It was a house decision," Pillshaw said. "We'd all like to stay closely knit."
Jeremy Schuyler, Lawrence freshman, said it was this type of brotherhood that convinced him to join the house. And while he doesn't agree with the IFC's decision, he is glad fraternity members will remain close.
“It’s kind of a downer that all this stuff has happened all at once,” he
said. "Everybody is trying to make amends and make things back to where it was."
The fraternity traditionally hosts a capture the flag event for the organization in April. Moreno said he would like to see the event happen this year despite the fraternity's struggles.
He said the fraternity would try to remain involved with its philanthropy, the Children's Miracle Network.
Responsibility of the infraction shouldn't be placed solely on Phi Kappa Theta, Schuyler said. The IFC should enforce policies equally as strict with all chapters, he said.
He said, however, that all members of Phi Kappa Theta had an equal roll in the violations.
"We can't really cast blame on anyone. We're all responsible," he said. "It's just as much Matt's problem as it is my problem."

Professor researches diversity
By TY BEAVER
teebr@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Erin Droste/KANSAN
Professor Val Smith demonstrates how he examines the water samples he uses in his study of water diversity yesterday in his office in Haworth Hall. Smith said he and his staff have completed much of the field work needed for the research and were working mostly in the laboratory conducting experiments and analyzing their work.
A University of Kansas researcher is gaining national attention after he conducted a study based on other people's work.
Val Smith, professor of ecology and evolutionary biology, found that phytoplankton, microscopic plants that live in water, tend to be more diverse in larger habitats. His research supports the theory that species diversity is determined by habitat size.
To reach this conclusion, he compared past research to see if a basic rule of ecology could be applied to his studies.
During the course of his research, he spent more time in the library than the laboratory. His paper, "Phytoplankton Species Richness Scales Consistently From Laboratory Microcosms to The World's Oceans," was published in the March 22 issue of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
While Smith did use research data from similar past experiments, he used data unrelated to the research.
such as biological surveys of the Great Lakes and Lake Baikal in Asia.
He also conducted several of his own small scale experiments in his laboratory.
After gathering all the information, he synthesized it. The research provides reasoning that small closed experiments can be used in researching environments, he said.
A collaborator and colleague of Smith, Brian Foster, said this type of research, called meta-analysis, was
not uncommon. Studies in the medical field can involve researchers analyzing primary research and asking bigger questions.
Using phytoplankton as the model provided a universal application. Foster, an assistant ecology and evolutionary biology professor said.
Smith began his research after he was asked to join the National Center for Ecological Analysis and Synthesis several years ago.
"Phytoplankton are cosmopolitan, they're able to get around and live in a variety of habitats." he said.
As technology has improved, researchers like Smith have attempted to examine whether the rule about habitat size controlling diversity applied to phytoplankton. Smith simply took the information that was available and made sense of it.
Now Smith hopes that a researcher will investigate why this rule exists.
"It doesn't make sense that a body the size of a water bottle and the Arctic Ocean are ruled by the same principle," he said.

As the competition for the NCAA championship heats up, so did Allen Fieldhouse.
Firefighters and police were called to the field house at about 1:30 p.m. yesterday after someone inside smelled smoke.
Mark Bradford, deputy fire chief, said one of the air handling units in the southwest corner of the third floor heated and started smoking. The smoking unit set off the fire alarms.

Schiavo dies 13 days after tube removed
PINELLAS PARK, Fla. — With her husband and parents feuding to the bitter end and beyond, Terri Schiavo died yesterday, 13 days after her feeding tube was removed in a wrenching right-to-die dispute that engulfed the courts, Capitol Hill and the White House and divided the country. Cradled by her husband, Schiavo, 41, died a "calm, peaceful and
gentle death" at about 9 a.m., a stuffed animal under her arm, flowers arranged around her hospice room, said George Felos, Michael Schiavo's attorney.
No one from her side of the family was with her at the moment of her death.

Pope has high fever from urinary infection
VATICAN CITY — Pope John Paul II was responding to treatment with
antibiotics yesterday and described as stable after he suddenly developed a high fever brought on by a urinary tract infection, Italian news agencies reported. The pontiff's health had declined sharply and rapidly a day after he began receiving nutrition through a feeding tube. At the edge of St. Peter's Square, hundreds of people gathered early yesterday, concerned about the fragile pope. A few knelt on the cobble-stones to pray, others wrapped blankets around themselves as they kept vigil through the night.

Other professionals have said Clarkson's 50-year run in the field is highlighted by the progress he has continued to make.
"If you do the same thing for 50 years, I don't know how you would get out of bed. Snead said. "To keep your interest up, you've got to change."
And for a photographer who began his career with a old-fashioned speed graphics camera, technological advancements have not slowed Clarkson down.
Clarkson was usually ahead of the game when it came to technological advancements in sports photography. He was the first to put digital cameras behind the backboard glass to capture action shots around the hoop, said Snead, who used to poke fun at Clarkson's idea.
But Snead said Clarkson never feared treating a new technique.
"I asked him if he had his Windex to wipe down the board," he said.

He knows from experience that creativity could cause photographers to miss the most important shot of the game.
"By the time you get to the championship game at the Final Four, you're making damn sure that you aren't taking one of those kinds of gambles in the name of creativity," Clarkson said.

said Josh Hernandez, Boulder, Colo. law student, said.
"The school knows it has good professors and good programs and have been resting on that for a while," Hernandez said. "They need to play the game like other schools. If they don't, it will make us look bad."
Hernandez isn't worried about the drop in rank affecting his career.

"It's one of the best regional schools," Hernandez said. "The area doesn't have much else to offer."
A lot of apprehension exists among law students and nobody really knows what's going to happen on the job market, said Chris Schulz, Seguin, Texas, law student.
"I'm trying to get a job right now and it's very stressful," Schulz said. "There's something wrong with you if you're not concerned."
He estimated that 80 to 100 students attended. He said he told students that the quality of education was no different because of the new ranking.
McAllister put together an open forum at noon yesterday to address
student concerns with the ranking drop.
"It wouldn't make sense for me transfer because I've built so many friends here and the numbers don't reflect the education I'm getting here," Schulz said.

Barbeque to raise scholarship money for local parishioners
St. John's Catholic Church, 1234 Kentucky St., will hold the third annual barbeque fundraiser in honor of the Lisa Ramos Bland Memorial Scholarship.
The cost is $8 for adults, $4 for children and $20 for a family of four.
Bland was killed by a 16-year-old drunken driver on Sept. 16, 2000.
The barbeque will help to raise part of the $2000 for a scholarship for students who are members of any Douglas County parish.
Additional money for the scholarship would come from outside donations, Bland said.
"I think it's important for people to go to the event and remember her," Jim Bland, Lisa's widower, said. "At the same time it benefits students who will get money for the scholarship."

KUnited fined for violating campaigning regulations
KUUnited was found guilty for campaigning inside residence halls illegally at a Election Commission violation hearing yesterday.
The coalition was fined $25, as the action was determined to be a minor violation. Two members of the coalition went door-to-door giving out coalition posters and buttons for residences to put in their rooms. The commission found Lance Mall, KUnited member, not guilty for soliciting; however, it found the coalition as a whole guilty for supporting the campaigning. Jack Connor, a Student Voice member who filed the complaint, said the punishment should have been stricter.
"When the person gets off like he did, they will continue to do it all day." Connor, Overland Park freshman, said. "Campaigning in the residence halls has been a problem in the past, and this will not stop it."
Nick Sterner, presidential candidate for KUnited, had no comment on the commission's decision.

Shouting protesters no better than Ann Coulter's ranting
In three years of attending this University, I can't think of any time I've been ashamed to do so.
MATT SEVCIK
msevcik@kansan.com
JOHN MURRAY
I can't think of any time I've looked around at my fellow students and felt utterly embarrassed. I've also never walked out on a speech, play, movie or any kind of presentation at Kennesaw.
Then, on Tuesday night, I saw Ann Coulter.
These protesters in the back shouted, yelled, threatened violence, laughed inappropriately and acted like complete morons at an academic lecture attended by 1,800 people. No air of intelligence left their mouths, just more yelling. Like trying to kill a fly with a machine gun.
My friend and I watched the spectacle for less than a half hour and decided that if we wanted to see something like that again, we'd go to the circus next time. But this wasn't because of Coulter. No, I knew what to expect from her. I knew she'd be specious, illogical and at times downright hateful. I had no idea that so many specious, illogical and downright hateful liberal college students would show up to prove her right when she called liberals idiots.
The people in the back of the auditorium were pundits, and I mean that as the worst insult possible.
The pundit is devoid of critical thinking: Pundits see a label and react. They are responsible for the apathy that most college kids have for politics. They yell until they think they've won. But when intelligent discussion is replaced by blind loyalty, we've lost all semblance of what our forefathers intended free speech to evoke.
I think the people who founded our country, nay, any proponent of virile democracy, would have been sick to the stomach at Tuesday night's speech. And I wish I could say it was just one side.
Those who fought for free speech intended for people to be able to speak out against real injustices, real social problems in the world, in an effort to discern the most effective, utilitarian government possible.
I really wish I could say, "Oh man; those damned Republicans were being jerks!" or "Those Democrats just won't stop complaining about anything!"
But I'd be lying to you. I read the news article in The University Daily Kansan on
Wednesday, and you wouldn't have had any clue how obnoxious the "protesters" were. You would have thought it was business as usual for a highly conservative speaker on a highly liberal campus.
All this taking sides is what stops our country There is unfortunately a
from progressing. There is, unfortunately, third party in America. These are the pundits. By adhering to a system that promotes apathy, they are taking away the most important reason democracy was even created.
The people in the auditorium that identify themselves as "staunch Republicans" had all their suspicions confirmed last night about people that identify themselves as "staunch liberals." They will now associate all liberals with the "protesters" in the back of the auditorium, and consequently disassociate them with any kind of progressive discourse.
Now, do I agree with the protesters? Sure. I don't think we should, according to Coulter, make converting the Middle East to Christianity a mission of the military, and I don't think we should bomb The New York Times. I don't think Vietnam veterans that protested the war caused us to lose said war. I mean, come on, she's crazy; let's get that out of the wav.
But the "protesters" in the back of the auditorium were equally as crazy, and I just hope they realize they weren't helping advance progressive social changes by turning Coulter's speech into a circus.
If anything, it confirmed every Republican in the Lied Center's suspicions that Democrats are all a bunch of crazies, which is quite unfortunate, because they should instead fight to be associated with open-mindedness.
And anyone who hadn't drawn a side Tuesday night will be turned off to politics altogether. And a college kid who stays home instead of voting is a victory for the conservatives; trust me.
So in closing, I want to make sure the "protesters" on Tuesday night realize they didn't accomplish a damned thing.
All they did was make sure that Ann Coulter remained "controversial,"made the $25,000 they paid her seem worth it,and probably helped her sell a ton more of her books.
Way to stick it to Ann Coulter, guys. I'm sure she's crying all the way to the bank.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Schiavo case misunderstood; Life, death distinction not clear line
Several years ago, I watched a family member die, and I know that life and death aren't separated by a bright line. He moved closer to the end for weeks in the hospital, and he went from there to a nursing home because the doctors knew he only had weeks left to live. He drifted further away through the day before he died. Overnight he went from tired but conversational to comatose and we knew it was a matter of hours, not weeks. His breathing slowed, and one pause between breaths didn't end. The death certificate says when the doctor stopped listening for a heart beat, but he was reallygone the night before.
Theresa Marie Schiavo, who died yesterday, went through an even slower transition. Bulimia resulted in a heart attack, which caused brain damage and a coma. For 15 years, her brain atrophied, and her husband, family and friends watched her drift away from them, moored to this world by a feeding tube.
Death isn't simple. Feeding tubes and life support can stop a person's descent into death, pausing them as if in mid-air. Sometimes doctors can pull someone back. In other cases, as with Mrs. Schiavo's, they can't. Drawing a bright line in that gray area is complicated, and different people will make different decisions. Mrs. Schiavo made her decision and expressed it to her husband and their friends. We should respect that, just as we should respect other people's wish to draw that line elsewhere.
Like most Americans, she didn't want to persist when her mind was gone, and the courts were right to respect that wish.
People who choose differently deserve and should receive the same protections*
As someone who has been through this process, I resent attacks by conservatives on a caring husband. This decision can't have been easy for any member of the family, and the attacks on the Schiwa's marriage are inappropriate, as is the attempt by certain authoritarian conservatives to force their views on Mrs. Schiavo and the nation.
Let Mrs. Schiavo's legacy be a sincere national discussion about the dying process. Let her be remembered through compassionate laws that help families confront the most dispiriting choices. Please, don't let her legacy be the division and strife that have been sown around her. Let her rest in peace.

Ten Commandments should unite, not divide Americans
Everyone knows we have a problem distinguishing just what the separation between church and state is in these United States.
RAY WITTLINGER
rwittlinger@kansan.com
Often it's hard to tell if a separation even exists. There really shouldn't be a problem distinguishing between the Ten Commandments and the Constitution.
As the Supreme Court spends time deliberating on whether statues or monuments of the Ten Commandments can be placed on grounds of government buildings, Americans face another moral dilemma.
It is certainly hard to argue that religion
plies no real relation to
There still must be respect
So why all of a sudden is there this question of whether or not a higher power should have a hand in the laws of the land?
The presence of the Ten Commandments near a government institution can be offensive only if you let it be.

of America.
Many question why it would be such a bad thing at all for everyone to have to live by the Ten Commandments. Outlined in this sacred document are indeed some of our country's most fundamental laws.
There still must be respect though for the difference in opinion on the authority rather than the law. Of course both God and a government do not tolerate nor allow murder, but if some do not believe in God as an authority figure, they may just not follow his law. There, we face a moral danger.
The Ten Commandments serve as a moral code that all humans should live by and should not be a source of contention about separation of church and state. It shuld unite between atheists and Christians.
The great debate we have now is about letting the theology of some dictate the lives of others.
Aethiests and Christians have argued for year*
We do face a grave danger in becoming a state of discrimination by telling Americans who can marry and who cannot. Even the fight to keep stem cell research harnessed and at a minimum based on personal beliefs threatens the ingenuity
laws have argued for years as to why there should even be a division between the government and church. While one believes they deserve protection from the other, one believes they exert power over the other.
The Ten Commandments is an actual object that just may have the ability to unite the two with common beliefs in respect for each human individual. Instead it serves as one of the greatest divides.
Tolerance really does extend in two different directions. While it is important to understand and sup
port followers of each religious background, it is equally important to respect those with no religious background. But allowing basic rules of humanity to offend you and frighten you is unnecessary.

As the season enters the must-win conference stretch, Price said he knew what he expected from his team.
Junior outfieldler Gus Milner continues to lead the way from the clean-up spot in the Kansas lineup. Milner is batting .357 and leads the team with nine doubles. He was one of only two Jayhawks to hit a home run against the Cornhuskers and collected three RBI in his first Big 12 series.
Now batting .313 as a team, the Jayhawk lineup consists of seven starters hitting .300 or better. Nebraska outscored Kansas 24-14 in the series, but the Jayhawks proved their offensive ability by getting 27 hits against the Cornhuskers' 29.
On the mound, the Jayhawks will likely face the Big 12's copitcher for week four, sophomore lefty Jason Meyer (5-1), who has a 3.35 ERA.
In game one, junior right-hander Kodiak Quick (7-2) may see a couple of innings in relief. He is holding batters to a .251 average and has a 3.29 ERA. Junior right-handed closer Don Czyz (2-1) will most likely see significant time on the hill. In his 31 innings of relief this season, Cyzz has a 2.32 ERA and 37 strikeouts. As a staff, the Kansas pitcher have a 3.87 ERA, just more than the Aggies' 3.26.

On the mound, the Aggies can expect to face tonight's scheduled starter Mike Zagurski. The senior left-hander (4-2) has a 4:21 ERA and struck out a team-high 62 batters this season.

The Kansas women's rowing team will host its first and last regatta for the season tomorrow.
A barbeque celebrating Senior Day will follow the races against Tulsa and Drake at 2 p.m. on the Kansas River.
This year's seniors are Rachel Chapman, Kristy Hainer, Erin Hennessey, LeAnna Kemp, Ashlea Kramer and Crystal Reed.
For Hennessey, this meet brings more than a senior celebration.
"My dad is coming down from Wyoming just to see me race," she said. "This will be the first race my dad has ever seen."
Besides her parents, nine other members of Hennessee's family will

Having friends and family attend would also provide support for the team, Hennessey said.
With any sport, it's always nice to have the "home court" advantage, coach Rob Catloth said.
"You always do well on your home course," he said. "The women know the course pretty well now."
The Jayhawks matched up against Tulaa and Drake last year in Lawrence. All three teams started their season at about the same time, which was different compared to the last regatta with No. 15 Texas, which began racing well before spring break.
"They have raced as much as we have," assistant coach Jennifer Myers said. "This makes it an even playing field."
Hennessey said she was focused on the Jayhawks' race, regardless of the other teams positions on the water and the thrill of racing at home.
"We need to focus on rowing our race," she said. "That's one of the things our coach tells us. We keep racing hard regardless of where the other boats are."
Catloth said he wanted to see progress.
"We're looking forward to continue our improvement," he said. "Our race against Texas wasn't bad, but it wasn't perfect. We need to race down this course, taking good, clean strokes."
After the race, Hennessey and the other seniors will be eager to celebrate, but she wants the team to celebrate its victories as well.
"I hope everyone can say they gave 100 percent," she said. "The team should be able to say that they paid attention to technique and what we've learned in practices. We need to remember all the things that we've been taught in previous weeks."
The races tomorrow will include the Varsity Eight, Novice Eight, two Varsity Four races, and two Novice Four races.

Kansas 'starting to peak at right time'

KANSAN SPORTWRITER
The Kansas women's tennis team (4-9, 3-2 Big 12) has won its last two matches over conference opponents, Oklahoma and Oklahoma State. Kansas will get an opportunity for a third Big 12 victory tomorrow against Baylor (14-4, 5-0 Big 12).
Kansas is undefeated on the road in the Big 12.
"The confidence level and the competitiveness are there," coach Amy Hall-Holt said.
said.
The improvement of junior Christine Skoda, who ranks second in the conference with a 4-1 singles mark, has been one of the reasons for Kansas' success.
"I'm feeling more confident in my shots," Skoda said.
Skoda began the spring season 0-5 and now is considered the Jayhawks top all-around threat.
Hall-Holt said Skoda, one of two upperclassmen on the squad, had started to fill a leadership role.
"She's going to keep on taking her game to a higher level." Hall-Holt
The other junior, Luiza Loureiro, who has battled back pain this season, has assisted Skoda with team leadership.
PETER ROBINSON
"I like to cheer for my teammates." Lourieiro said. "I can be really loud."
Loureiro, who has solely performed as a doubles player, said she expected to play this weekend.
"I think I can go." Loureiro says.
"It's painful, but I'm going."
Freshman Stephanie Smith has reeled off two straight singles victories. She has been praised by coaches for her baseline game and aggressive competitiveness.
Baylor earned its highest-ever ranking in the program history earlier this week under the leadership of third-year coach Joev Scrivano.
"Our team has improved a lot with their attitude," Scrivano said. "We want to be excellent out on the court no matter who our opponent is."
Scrivano, who led Baylor to the
Big 12 Conference championship in his first season in 2003,has a talented player in freshman Zuzana Zemenova.
Zemenova, the only Big 12 player ranked in the top 25 nationally, has won 12 of her last 13 singles matches.
"We knew it would be just a matter of time before she made an impact before the national scene," Scrivano said.
Standout talent Klara Zrustova, a sophomore from the Czech Republic, has seen action at both the number three and four singles position for Baylor.
"She puts a lot of pressure on her opponents to beat her," Scrivano said. "I don't see anything changing with her."
Zrustova has won 14 straight singles matches, 13 of which were straight-set victories.
Sophomore Carolin Walter, who began the season ranked No. 31 in the country, saw her ranking slip as the NCAA slapped the German native with a 13-match suspension for competing at the collegiate level with club tennis experience overseas
Scrivano said his team wouldn't underestimate Kansas.
Since her return. Walter is 2-2.
as professional, which is not allowed in the collegiate ranks
The NCAA recognizes club tennis
"They are one of the up and coming teams in the Big 12." Scrivano said. "They are starting to peak at the right time."
The match also will reunite a coach and his former player. Kansas Assistant coach Frank Polito, while at Eastern Michigan, recruited and coached Scrivano in 1993.
"I have a lot of respect for him. I wish him all the best." Serviano said.
Polito said he remembered Scrivano as a serve and volley player who worked hard.
The coaches faced off while Polito served as an interim head coach at Ohio State, and Scrivano was in his first season at Baylor.
"I am 1-0 against him right now," Polito said. "Hopefully, I can keep that streak alive."
Kansas will face Baylor at 1 p.m. in Waco, followed by a Sunday matchup against Texas Tech in Lubbock.

Olympic trials lie on horizon Coach prepares to say goodbye to record-holding swimmer
BY KELLY REYNOLDS
kreynolds@kansan.com
KANSAN SPORTWRITER
Kansas swimming coach Clark Campbell might soon have to part ways with the woman he calls "one of the best swimmers in the history of the University."
Senior co-captain Amy Gruber is preparing to swim at the World Championship trials, also known as the spring nationals. Tuesday in Indianapolis. The trials are held in conjunction with the US Swimming National Championships
Championships
If Gruber swims better than 57.19 seconds in the 100-meter freestyle, she would make the Olympic trial standard cut. She
could then use that qualification to compete in the 2008 Olympic Games.
The fastest swimmers in each event will be a part of the US National Team. Campbell said. The top six

Gruber
treestylers at the World Championships also make the cut, he said.
So far, Gruber's best time in the 100-meter freestyle is 57.66 seconds. But Campbell said he has been telling her to visualize swimming near 56 seconds.
The meet will also feature long-
course meters in an Olympic-style pool, rather than short-course yards used in Robinson Natatorium. Campbell said he was confident Gruber could build off solid NCAA meets and continue strong.
Gruber said she intended to be competitive, but would have a different mindset going into Tuesday's competition.
"Amy had the best NCAA meet of her life," Campbell said. "Amy is experienced enough to take that speed and translate it into long-course."
"I'm looking at it as a completely different meet," she said. "The NCAs were hard for me because it was my last college meet. But I'm going into this meet to have
fun. If I swim well, there's a larger possibility that I will continue to swim."
Campbell will accompany Gruber to the trials next week for what could be their last meet together. He said Gruber's work ethic and mental toughness singled her out from other swimmers.
"Most of them are done in May, but it's like Amy took the quantum leap," he said. "She's in a whole different realm right now."
"She's on a mission to finish her career on her terms," he said.
Gruber is among the top 30 American Division I swimmers. After a four-year career at the University of Kansas, she owns

Big-league crowd
Coach Price says Aggie 'passion for baseball is awesome'
BY ALISSA BAUER
abauer@kansan.com
KANSAN SPORTWRITER
When Kansas opened up the Big 12 Conference against Nebraska last weekend in Hoglund Ballpark, it was in front of roughly 1,000 fans, and many of them were donning Husker apparel.
As Kansas heads to College Station to take on Texas A&M, led by veteran coach Mark Johnson, in a three-game weekend series, it can plan on playing its second Big 12 Conference opponent of the year in front of a more Texassized crowd. That crowd does not faze Kansas coach Ritch Price in the slightest, he said.
"It's my favorite place I've ever been to play. The atmosphere is absolutely incredible." Price said. "There will be 7,000 people there and their passion for baseball is awesome."
The Jayhawks prepare to face the Aggies, who had more than 5,500 fans at their last home game on Tuesday.
The Aggies (20-9, 2-4),
ranked No. 16 by Baseball
America, sit in the eighth spot
in the Big 12 standings, only
one spot higher than the
Jayhawks (21-10, 1-2). Kansas
lost its series against Nebraska,
while Texas A&M dropped its
conference-opening series to
Texas Tech and Oklahoma.
Although Kansas could not take the series from No. 8 Nebraska, the team continued to show strength and improvement on the field and at the plate.
"I think we're ready to play in this conference," junior outfielder Matt Baty said. "We've struggled in years past, and I think this is the year we'll do some damage in the Big 12."

FOR THE WEEKEND
I am not a fan of football. I prefer to watch the national team play and watch the game. I love the players on the field and the atmosphere in the stadium. I enjoy watching the games because they are exciting and add to my experience. I would be happy to see these players playing and enjoying their time together.

Fans should forgive Roy, move on
Let me just say, I'll never be a North Carolina fan.
I throw up in my mouth a little bit every time I see powder blue and white put together, and when I see a kid wearing UNC gear around campus, my first impulse is to punch him in the back of the head. I rooted for Duke in both of its match-ups with North Carolina this year. I stood up and cheered every time Blue Devil senior J.J. Redick hit a three-pointer, even though I felt dirty and confused about it afterward.
I chucked beer coozies at the TV for every Dickie V diatribe about the unparalleled greatness of Roy
Williams
Williams and the 'Heels and Tobacco Road, and at the beginning of this year's tourney, when I saw Kansas and North Carolina both placed in the Syracuse regional, I fantasized about the Jayhawks whooping the Tar Heels in the Elite Eight.
but Bucknell killed those fantasies before they had a chance to be realized, and North Carolina kept on winning. Somewhere
It's been two years since Roy Williams bolted back home to North Carolina, leaving a heartbroken Lawrence and a crushed-like-a dove Al Bohl in his wake. Two years since he revealed that he did, in fact, give a shit about his alma mater after all. That's more than enough time to get over the bitterness and sense of betrayal and remember the 15 years, 418 wins and four Final Fours he gave Kansas, the achingly close calls, the tearful press conferences, the daggummits and all the rest.
amidst all this, I had a revelation: North Carolina, or more specifically, Roy Williams, deserves a National Championship, and it's time to stop hating the Tar Heels.
He took a probationary program and made it shine with class. He was National Coach of the Year four times. He won at least 20 games in each of his last 14 seasons. He's just too good for his legacy to be his departure.
And yet, walk around Lawrence and the University of Kansas campus and you'll be hard pressed to find much love for Roy.
Jeez, you'd think it was Missouri he ran off to — not North Carolina, not his home state and his alma mater and his wife and kids' alma mater. Sure, he could turn down his dream job once, but twice? No way, especially considering the turmoil the program was experiencing: two consecutive years with no NCAA Tournament invitation and Matt Doherty ousted only three seasons.
"But he lied," the common argument goes. "In 2000, he said he was staying, but then a couple years later, he just ups and leaves."
Be realistic. And come on, be forgiving.
Kansas junior guard Jeff Hawkins is. "He's a good, loyal guy." Hawkins said of his former coach. "He did a lot for the University, and fans shouldn't forget that. He was faced with a tough decision; fans should mad that." Surely if anyone has a right to still be mad at Williams for leaving, it's the players he left. If Hawkins is big enough to root for Roy, fans should be too.
You know those annoying exes that keep on hating you like three years after they should have moved on, the ones that cut you out of photos and grill all the gifts you gave them into charred stuffed-animal steaks? Well, I hate to say it, Kansas fans, but that's us. Roy dumped us, and it sucked. But it's time to get over it, and it time to get over hating the 'Heels.

PETER SMITH
He said when the NIT called he asked, "Why? What did I do?"
Although Perkins did not expect the honor, Jim Marchiony said it was no surprise.
"There are many people in the field of college athletics who know how much he's meant to athletics and college basketball specifically," s a i d Marchiony.

Marchiony said he had known Perkins for the past 15 years, and he had worked alongside Perkins for the past three years. He said Perkins continually tried to give coaches what they needed to be successful and considered student-athletes his top priority.

▼ HOROSCOPES
- Aries (March 21-April 19) You are the wild type. Learning a new drinking game at a party is the highlight of your week. In other words, you are an alcoholic with the IQ of a toaster. Keep up your screwdrivers every morning and eventually you'll start screwing a toaster.
- Taurus (April 20-May 20). You're good at planning and styling your hair. This is all you're good at though. People think you're a waste of space with hair that's not even that great. Your roommate is planning on killing you in your sleep. Sleep tight.
- Gemini (May 21-June 21) You love the outdoors. Camping, hiking and fishing are the ultimate experiences for you. You smell like the farm and enjoy picking your nose. Welcome to a lifetime of being alone.
- + Cancer (June 22-July 22). You are a deep thinker and keep to yourself. But people think you are a pretentious jacass. You're the kind of person who would sell your sibling's kidney to make a quick buck and, although the idea of that makes you laugh, it's not to be proud of.
- Leo (July 23-Aug. 22). People say
you are fun and spunky. So, you are an idiot with no future. You are the type of person who admires the house ant, uses fingers to compute easy addition, and thinks there are only 27 days in a month. One plus one equals what again?
+ Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You are an organized person and know where you are going. You are only pre-tending though. Truthfully, you are absolutely clueless about life, but you like to pretend you are better than everyone else. Welcome to schizophrenia, poser.
- Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22). Your sex appeal and fabulous flirtatious ability makes you smile. Simply put, you're easy and have low self-esteem. It's time to wake up and get off other people's beds. it's time to like yourself as much as you like sex. By the way, cut down on the porn.
- Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21). You like a good challenge. You're the type of person who tries to eat soup with chopsticks. While your pointless adventures may amuse you, they piss off the people who have to deal with you. You are likely to be the only person at your funeral.
♦ Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You always view the glass half full.
You're an optimist by heart and that makes you forever naive. It's time to wake up and face reality because you have no future and all your friends secretly hate you. Your pet is soon to die.
- Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You are an honest person. In other words, you're a heartless brat who has no feelings for others. People always ask if you are an only child. You're the type of person who has no problem eating in front of a hungry friend. Your significant other is planning on leaving you this weekend.
- ◆ Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Don't leave the house tomorrow.
- Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) You are a very romantic, passionate person. Basically, you stay in every night watching TV and movies that give you false hopes that will never come true for you. Go out tonight, have fun, cheat and don't remember it tomorrow — you deserve it. Besides, that special someone has already cheated on you.

▼ OUT WITH THE OLD
Family gives daughter Allen Fieldhouse as gift
BY OWEN MORIS
satire@kansan.com
TONGUE IN BEAK WRITER
The Board of Regents approved a proposal five to one to sell the naming rights of Allen Fieldhouse for $12 million to the Laurie Family of Columbia, Mo. For the second time, the Lauries have decided to name a venue after their daughter Paige. Allen Fieldhouse will now be called "Paige's Fieldhouse."
"This is a wonderful day that will hopefully vindicate our daughter from all the trauma she has gone through." Bill Laurie said at a press conference in the fieldhouse yesterday. He added, "Paige, Paige honey, do you want anything else? How about a jet, sweetie?"
The Laurie family originally named the new arena at the University of Missouri after their daughter, Paige Sports Arena. But when it was discovered she'd cheated while attending University of Southern California, they gave the naming rights back to Missouri who changed the arena to Wal-Mart Cheater Arena.
The Lauries though were not too happy with the name change. So, they decided to contact other Big 12 Conference universities to see if they could buy the naming rights to their arenas. The only other university to respond was Baylor, who wanted $15.50 for the naming rights to their arena. The Lauries picked that one up too. Paige has suggested "The OC Arena."
"It's the beginning of a new
era," Chancellor Robert Hemenway said. "No longer do we have to keep living in the past at KU by naming all these buildings after old fogies. Instead we have a new future! One that is $12 million richer."
"I guess it's sort of cool to have buildings named after me," Paige said, while tanning at the Palm Beach Country Club. "Though I would have liked an island better. Where is KU anyways? St. Louis? Are they the Wildcats?"
Many students were noticeably upset after hearing the news.
"I don't care that they rename the building for cash," Lukas Philips, Bumblepatch senior, said. "But to name it after a family from Missouri, that's unacceptable. Next thing you know, they're going to start
recruiting players from prison like Missouri."
Hemenway and Bill Laurie were unphased by the disgust and anger that their announcement created.
"Mr. Laurie is one of the rich ... I mean, nicest men in the world." Hemenway said. "He's all right in my book and Paige is such a nice girl. I'm sure she'll never do anything bad again."
The University of Southern California had threatened to take away Paige's degree once it was discovered that she'd cheated and had never actually attended classes at Southern California, or been in southern California. It recanted when Bill Laurie threatened to buy the university and turn it into a Wal-Mart.
FIELD HOUSE
Edited by Nikola Rowe
The Laurie family will cut the red tape at the renaming ceremony April 20 at "Paige's Fiedhouse." Paige Laurie has asked that "only really popular people show up. No nerds." Laurie also has requested the hardwood floor of the fieldhouse be repainted pink and blue with pixies. Phog Allen's statue began softly weeping.

BADMINTON SHOCKER: 63-64
KU Badminton loses ShuttleHawk seniors' birdies mauled by Cougars
BY SAM HOPKINS

TONGUE IN BEAK WRITER

Kansan file photo
Ron Langdon stares blankly at the shuttlecock in his hand, wondering what might have been. The senior and starting service specialist on KU's badminton team says he knows that he let down his school, fans and family. But more than anything, he disappointed himself.
"Every little kid playing badminton in the backyard dreams of getting the shot we had," said a dejected Prashant Marpathsary, also a senior,
"but sometimes the birdies just won't fall where you want them."
The University of Kansas suffered a surprising defeat at the rackets of Clearfield College, a small school that two years ago barely had a badminton club. Now, the Clearfield Cougars have secured their school a spot in the National Collegiate Badminton Association and an upset victory to boot.
Prashant Marpathsary, ShuttleHawk senior, attempts the final volley before blowing it. The KU badminton team ended its season yesterday, losing a shocker to underdog Clearfield College, 63-64. The ShuttleHawk team touted one of the best senior classes the school had ever seen. The senior class included Marpathsary, All-NCBA First Team selection Ron Langdon, Dat Phan, Ralph Pinkerton and Chas Wolberry. When asked what happened on the final play, Marpathsary said, "I just got my shuttlecock blocked. I hate getting shuttlecock blocked."
The ShuttleHawks, as fans call them, had high hopes going into this season. Ron Langdon was a pre-season All-NCBA First Team selection and is still a candidate for the prestigious Nigel Fletcher award, which is the greatest individual honor in collegiate badminton.
The final set of the final match of the 'Hawks season came down to a lob that was offered up by Clearfield on a play gone awry. The team failed to capitalize, and unfortunately a splendid day for Ron Langdon — not so great for his team-mates — ended with his missing his trademark overhand "smasheroo," which had been the scourge of opponents all season long.
Next season looms heavy on the horizon for the returning players, some of whom will have to shake a late-season scoring drought that eventually caught up with the ShuttleHawks. Coach Rick Malrek is optimistic, though many fans are disappointed with the quick loss in his second season as the Shuttlehawk's coach.
I came to Kansas from Guyana because I had a dream to play badminton in the States. I won't let that dream die. Rock Chalk ShuttleHawk, baby."
"Losses happen and it's rough," he said, "But we'll move on because we're a badminton team and we're made

of tough stuff. I have a lot of good players who will continue to develop over the coming years. We're focusing especially on strength and endurance training with the
vouner guys."
Sophomore Londino Latrice uses his own personal journey to remind him that brighter days are ahead.
Though he put on one of the worst performances of his young career in the season-ender, he remains optimistic.
"I came to Kansas from Guyana because I had a dream to play badminton in the States," the 19-year-old mused. "I won't let that dream die. Rock Chalk ShuttleHawk, baby."

PC CRAZY
Border rivalry renamed ... again
University of Kansas Athletic Director Lew Perkins announced yesterday that the official title of the KU-Missouri rivalry would be altered in order to avoid what he referred to as "an overly competitive sense of competition."
Perkins noted that the official moniker of the rivalry, "The Border Showdown," was too confrontational and might send the wrong message to impressionable students of both universities.
"I've spoken with Missouri's AD, Michael Alden, and we both agreed that the current name did a disservice to the actual showdowns that are going on in other areas of the world," Perkins said in his weekly press conference. "The word 'showdown' has such a powerful meaning to those who are involved in them, that we did not want to risk offending them. Granted no one has complained yet, but there is the potential that someone may complain at some point in the future, so we must be proactive."
Perkins announced that the rivalry would be renamed the
- Will Lamborn
"I go to sporting events and see T-shirts that say 'Muck Fizzoon' or 'Go Jawhacks' and I worry that we're sending the wrong message to our kids." Perkins said. "After all, the purpose of collegiate sports isn't to beat other teams — it's to generate revenue." Perkins finished the press conference by stating that with new corporate sponsorship, the official title of the rivalry would be "ESPN presents the Cooper Tires Border Co-existence sponsored by Nextel."
McGwire tear juiced for Congress hearing
As part of his continuing efforts to completely emasculate the Kansas sports image, Perkins has also stated that any shirts, signs or chants that encourage the University to succeed at the expense of others would also be prohibited.
"Border Co-existence" in reference to the fact that both universities do co-exist. Perkins said that the new name would encourage Kansas fans to think of the University of Missouri as a neutral entity and not as a rival.
A medical expert discovered that former baseball player Mark McGwire injected tearoids into his buttock prior to the steroid congressional hearing March 25. Tearoids are a newly developed drug that enables one to create tears without any emotional feeling whatsoever.
THE STUFF
"I'm not surprised," former McGwire teammate Jose Canseco said. "I think I'm pretty sure that Mark did tearoids when we were playing for the A's."
When told that tearoids were created just last month, a confused Canseco responded,
"Well, I know he did steroids. He did steroids. Believe me. I saw him do them several, twice, I mean at least 200 times."
McGwire allegedly injected the drugs in an attempt to
receive sympathy from the American people by balling in front of Congress. McGwire continues to vehemently deny the use of steroids despite the fact that he is neckless with a bad case of acne, experiencing constant mood swings and is beginning to need a "Bro" to support his man boobs.
When reached for comment about his use of tearoids and steroids by the University Daily Kansan, McGwire said he was unwilling to talk about the past.
"I'll only talk about the future," McGwire said. "I want to keep this positive. I wish everyone would just leave me alone. I didn't do steroids. I wish Canseco would just shut his face. Do I look like I did steroids?"

Nick Weiser knelt down in the front st. of the chapel at the St. Lawrence Catholic Center Fridav night.
The Dighton freshman hung his head low as he draped his rosary over the side of the pew in the front row.

known about it, but he was happy with the turnout.
"It was necessary to pray for the pope because it's an opportunity for everyone to come together in praver," he said.
More than 50 students joined Weiser Friday night for a prayer vigil for Pope John Paul II.
The vigil was a time for people to mourn, but it was also a time to celebrate the pope's life, the Rev. James Sanchez said.
"We're here to recognize the great legacy our Holy Father is leaving us," Sanchez said in a sermon. "His legacy is that he embodied, he witnessed and he inspired hope." Sanchez said the pope did that when he lived and
he would continue doing that in death.
The Rev. Vince Krische was impressed by the general concern of the Catholic leader.
"I just think it's really interesting. It's the big word on the street and everyone — not just Catholics — is talking about it," he said.
Krische said people had stopped him in Lawrence Friday to ask him about the pope's condition.
Weiser and others at the gathering said they felt a personal connection to the Holy Father. Weiser heard the pope speak when he attended a spring break pilgrimage to Rome less
than two weeks ago.
"It feels like a connection having been at one of his last celebrations he appeared," he said.
The pope's final public appearance was Wednesday when, looking gaunt and unable to speak, he briefly appeared at his window.
His health sharply deteriorated the next day after he suffered a urinary tract infection.

KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Kansas will be the first of four states in 2005 to decide whether to amend its state constitution to prohibit same-sex marriage. The proposed amendment will be on ballots across the state tomorrow.
South Dakota, Tennessee and Alabama will follow Kansas and vote on state constitutional amendments later this year.
While 17 states already have constitutional amendments prohibiting same-sex marriage, 23 others have pending amendments, according to the Human Rights Campaign, a national organization working for equal rights for lesbians, gays, bisexuals and transgendered persons.
Kansas, like many other states, already has a state statute that prohibits same-sex marriage and defines marriage as a contract between two people of the opposite sex. The proposed amendment would take this statute a step further.
The first part of the amendment defines marriage as a civil contract between one man and one woman. By this definition, all other marriages would be declared void.
The second part says the state will not recognize any relationship, other than marriage, as having the rights or incidents of marriage.
This would deny some tax breaks and benefits to people in civil unions who are not married, Aaron Paden, Lawrence senior, said. And that takes things too far, Paden said. He has helped organize a rally against the amendment at 12:20 today at Wescoe Beach.
"Our constitution should be there to protect citizens," Paden said. "For the constitution to be
used to take away rights from people is bad. It seems almost evil."
Daniel Rea, St. Louis freshman and activism chairman for Queens and Allies, said the amendment was too specific.
Student Senate voted last month to oppose the amendment. The amendment conflicts with the University of Kansas Code of Student Rights and Responsibilities, which protects students from harassment based on sexual orientation.
"It's not just defining marriage," Rea said. "It's denying rights to any partners or couples outside of marriage."
While denying the recognition of other civil unions is a bold step, it is necessary to ensure that the amendment is more than just theory, Lee Bickerstaff, Emporia senior, said.
"If there are no real world effects, then you're just arguing semantics." Bickerstaff said.
But that is unlikely, Allan Cigler, professor of political science, said. Governor Kathleen Sebelius can veto any new statutes.
Rock the Kansas vote
If the amendment does not pass, the legislature could still amend the state's statute prohibiting same-sex marriage, which would function similarly to the constitutional amendment.
"My guess would be that she doesn't support the amendment," Cigler said. "I think it's the amendment or nothing."
Polls will be open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. tomorrow. Registered voters can contact The Douglas County Clerk's office for voting locations at 832-5267. A majority vote is needed for the amendment to pass.
Cigler said he doubted the house and the senate could get the two-third vote required to override a governor's veto.

Editor's Note
When I was in grade school, my cousin and I used to make disgusting concoctions and then try to get my neighbor girl to try them. We would mix such
household goodies as honey, grape juice, hot sauce, cinnamon and mustard with more 'exotic ingredients such as sand. To top it off we would freeze dead flies in ice cube trays. Then we would call my neighbor to come over and hand her the dripping slop when we tried not to let our giggles escape. I can't remember a single time my neighbor did more than sniff her carefully created drink, shove it back in our faces and run home.
Apparently I was not the only one fascinated with these four mixtures, and it seems some bartenders and drinkers have not given them up. In "Strange Brews" on page eight, writer Chris Brown examines the ingredients and bizarre appeal of these drinks and lets you know where you can find them in Lawrence. We've also listed a few recipes, so drink at your own risk. Hey, you may even find one you'll actually like.
Shot names have always grossed me out anyway the monkey gland, corpse reviver, duck fart, test tube baby, but perhaps the most repulsive is the income tax. And after glancing at what's in the drinks in the article, I can tell you the next time I'm offered a shot. I'll be asking for a list of ingredients.

Find out what it takes to follow the rules and what makes some foods out of the question.

Melissa Horen doesn't eat cheeseburgers. It's not that the Overland Park sophomore doesn't like them; she's not allowed to eat them. E屠 is Jewish, and according to kashrut, or kosher dietary law, milk and meat is no an-oo.
The word kosher comes from a Hebrew word meaning "fit" or "proper," and it encompasses all food that follows the dietary requirements of Jewish people. Typically, a lot of people misunderstand the word and think it implies that food can only be eaten if blessed by a rabbi. But that's not what certifies a product as kosher. Depending on the food you eat, there are different requirements that must be followed.
According to Jewish dietary law, milk and meat must be eaten separately. The core idea behind the no mixing rule is that a source of life cannot be used as an agent of death, says Rabbi Scott White, a spiritual leader at the Lawrence Jewish Community Center, 917 Highland Drive. He explains that in the third book of the Torah, the Jewish holy book, there is a verse that basically states that you cannot boil the kid, meaning a baby goat or lamb, in the mother's milk. It goes against the natural order to use the commodity of youth as an agent of death, says White, and he says that the kosher diet stems from this belief.
For a food product to be considered kosher, a rabbi needs to see the setup where the food will be made and supervise the production to ensure the machines aren't also used for non-kosher foods. The rabbi also must be allowed to come in whenever he wants, says White. Once this has taken place, the food gets the rabbi's stamp of certification, with symbols varying from company to company. One of the most well-known kosher symbols is OU. Most regular grocery stores carry kosher-certified foods, especially parve items, or food that is not milk or meat, such as juice and pasta.
Buying meat is a different story. White says that regular grocery stores don't carry kosher meats because they aren't slaughtered according to kosher law. There are no kosher markets in Lawrence, so a 45-minute drive to ivy's Market in Overland Park is necessary to put kosher meat on the menu. At the store, kosher meats and a variety of kosher foods are available, as well as frozen foods.
Chaim Bernstein is a kosher supervisor at Irv's Market, and his job is to make sure every product that arrives at the store is kosher. What is the main thing he checks for? Insects.
"Those bags of lettuce that you get? Full of bugs," Bernstein says, referring to the bagged salads available at regular grocery stores. He makes sure the lettuce in Irv's Market is bug-free because eating insects is forbidden, or *trail*, along with pork and shellfish.
A kosher diet is not only for Jewish people. Muslims have similar dietary restrictions and look for kosher-certified foods.
Eating in restaurants is somewhat of a challenge for people who strictly follow a kosher diet in Lawrence. As far as White knows, there are no kosher-certified restaurants around town, but he says a few restaurants in the Kansas City area offer kosher dining. If you are looking to keep kosher but enjoy dining out, these are some restaurants to check out. In addition to being a grocery store, irv's Market serves kosher dishes and has a small area for dining. Princess Garden, a Chinese restaurant in Kansas City, Mo., uses separate cooking equipment and utensils for kosher customers to serve food two Sunday nights a month. The Hereford House in Leawood has a separate kosher kitchen upstairs that it uses to serve kosher meals once a month.
Horen views eating kosher as a daily reminder of her religion and moral values. Though she doesn't strictly follow every kosher dietary law, she says she follows the rules as much as she can. For instance, the kitchen in her sorority house isn't a kosher kitchen, which means that there hasn't been any supervision by a rabbi, and the utensils may have been used to prepare non-kosher food as well. Horen tries to make sure to ask for alternative dishes if the main course includes something that is not kosher. Keeping kosher isn't difficult if you are committed, says White, and it's a diet that anyone, not just Jewish people, can maintain.

From a Papa's Pizza Specialty such as the Mama Keno, with Roma tomatoes, spinach, feta, romano and roasted garlic, to a Papa's sandwich, such as the Chicken Whoa, filled with chicken, black olives, blue cheese and artichoke hearts, hole-in-the-wall pizza is worth a try. You can create your own slice with your choice of more than 30 toppings. They'll even let you pick the sauce: red, white or pesto. Of course, for all you plain Jane, there's always a big slice of cheese pizza — The Slice — for only $2.69.

All sandwiches are $5.89.

THE UNIVERSITY DAHY KANSAN
In a little house tucked into Park way Gardens, four roommates slave over a cleaning list. Actually, Amy Bigsleff (left), Wichita senior, along with her roommates Shari Brunei, Lawrence senior, and Erin Brooks, Independence senior, started the list in November to help them cooperate with chores. The list includes trash cans, mopping, dusting and cleaning the microwave and stove.
P
Roommates in Peace
You're stuck with them until May at least. Here's how to find some common ground.
Whether
Whether you call GSP-Corbin Hall or a four-bedroom duplex home, chances are you'll get room-mates. Learning to live with them is one course you need to pass.
Tolerance, patience, decency and effective communication are just a few attributes that help roommates mesh, says Eddie Hull, dean of Residence Life and executive director of Housing Services at Duke University.
Amy Biggs, Wichita senior, and her three roommates have to work together to keep their household peaceful. Biggs and her roommates live off campus in a town home and have known each other for three years. One of Biggs' roommates, Sheri Brune, Lawrence senior, posts a chore list on the refrigerator door each week. The Excel spreadsheet lists the duty each roommate is responsible for—taking trash out, dusting, sweeping—and the day it needs to be done. Biggs realizes a system such as this serves a purpose, but she also feels like she is living at home with her parents again. "It's good to clean on a weekly basis, but the list is just kind of goofy," Biggs says. "It's part of adapting to different people."
Brune says only two of the roommates were doing regular cleaning before the list, and she thought it would get everyone involved. Brune says the list has helped make all the roommates aware that they need to clean, and dividing the chores doesn't make anyone feel like they are doing too much. She also says now the chores are getting done on a regular basis. "It stucks that it came to a chore list," Brune says. "it's just cleaning. It's stupid, but it's not to be done."
Working together and adapting to one another are skills a lot of students have to learn. Diana Robertson, associate director of the University of Kansas Residence Life, says there are more than 5,000 students living in on-campus housing, and according to the Office of Institutional Research and Planning Web site, wwwku.edu/~oirp, more than 21,800 students live off campus.
Hull, who is also the president of the Association of College and University Housing Officers – International (ACUHO-I), says some basics in getting along with your roommate or roommates are communication, respect and open-mindedness. He also emphasizes that learning to talk with each other instead of ateach other is key. For example, Hull says a common problem that roommates have is the inability to talk openly and honestly about their expectations and what is bothering them. He says it is important to try to understand the other person before trying to be understood. "Too many of us don't really listen well," Hull says. "This is not just a roommate issue."
Ken Stoner, director of the Department of Student Housing at the University of Kansas, says roommates must understand and respect boundaries. He says this can be a problem because many students have had a room of their own at home, and at college they must share a room, closet and bathroom. Difficulties often arise because students have not experienced negotiation and respect with the people they lived with.
Stoner also says roommates should realize there are two sides to every issue. Students should empathize and try to understand the other side, not just their own. He says if students can't make peace with their current roommate, they may have difficulties with the next as well. "Living with others of different values, cultures, temperaments, religions, ethnicity, etc., may be a challenge," Stoner says, "but it does provide a foundation for an extremely important learning experience."
AUTHORIZED USE ONLY FOR EDITING PURPOSES. NO COMMERCIAL USE.
Big admits that she is sometimes late on her chores, but she continues to go along with it to keep her roommates happy. "It's a good conversation starter at the bars," she says. "Hey, did you guys get your chores done? Probably not, you don't have a chore list."

Keep your locks baby fresh
When you can't wash your hair, skip the baseball cap and try baby powder. It absorbs oil, reduces shine and smells good, says Kate Wyatt, manager for the Beauty Brands at 3514 Clinton Parkway. Baby powder works best for light hair because it can leave residue. If you have dark hair, try a dry shampoo like Bumble & Bumble, available on the company's Web site for about $20. When using baby powder or dry shampoo, put a small amount of product in your hands first, not directly on the hair, Wyatt says. Starting from underneath, apply it to your scalp and roots. Substituting powder is OK
every once in a while, but Wyatt says to
not overdo it. You should still wash
and condition hair with your
normal product when you
have the time.

Tie yourself in knots
If you're tired of using the same old Windsor knot on your ties and you just can't stand to do one more Four-in-Hand, then try using the Pratt knot. Invented by Jerry Pratt, a former employee of the United States Chamber of Commerce, the knot is different because the tie starts inside out. The front side of the tie is facing toward your shirt. The Pratt knot is also commonly known as the Shelby knot, after Don Shelby, the man who helped popularize the knot.
To tie the Pratt knot:
1. Start with the tie inside out, with

These are not your Grandma's cocktails
CRAFT Miracle HELP RedH
The hollow sound of your 10th empty tequila shot stamming against the bar top and the quick flicker of the overhead lights signal the end of your 21st birthday and what has been a booze-fueled night on the town. At this signality, your buddy and drinking partner, who keeps falling off that stool right next to you, leans over and, with a sly smirk, says, "I'm gonna order you somethin' that'll really make this a 21st to remember." He then calls the bartender over, whispers something in his ear, and two minutes later what amounts to a glass full of frothy sludge shows up in front of you.

"Whatthahell is this? you ask, half repulsed, half intrigued by the multi-colored concoction sitting in front of you. "It's a suicide," he says. "Drink up!"
Feeling like you are up to the challenge, partly because it's a special night, partly because you have 10 shots of the Mexican cousin in your stomach to back your capricious decision, you agree and quickly start to down what's in front of you. Halfway through the challenge, you realize that you can't finish it. The clashing alcoholic tastes of sugary-sweetness, spiciness and pale bitterness make you want to puke. You slam down the mug, turn to your buddy and demand to know the drink's ingredients. "Everything that was left over on the bar," he says with a grin.
A similar, though arguably less exciting version of this scenario happened to me on the eve of my 22nd birthday when a group of my friends ordered a "Mexican Prairie Fire" and coaxed me in, my half-drunken, "Why the hell not?" state, into downing it. The rancid, burning combination of Tabasco and tequila slammed
A Lawrence bartender who wished to remain anonymous says he's been on the other side of this scenario. He says he used to work at a bar where there was a mat underneath the beer taps that caught all of the spilled beer and mixed ingredients for shots. At the end of the night, he would drain the mat into a beer mug and serve up to any bar patron brave enough to down the contents.
Chad Landis, head bartender and manager at Astor's Bar, 601 Kasold Drive, says it's not uncommon to receive requests for out-of-the-ordinary cocktails and shots from bar patrons. He says some of the requests are for novel mixes of unusual types of alcohol combined with different juices, while others are for more extreme mixes of alcohol and ingredients that people wouldn't ordinarily associate with a mixed drink or shot, like Tabasco sauce and olive juice. Landis said one of the
against my taste buds, and this repulsive shot that had just gone down my throat came right back up all over the bar. I was embarrassed but definitely more cautious from there on out in my alcoholic undertakings.
more exotic shots that is currently very popular is called a "Starburst," which contains five Bacardi flavors in one shot. For the strong of stomach, the "Tour of Germany," a spicy, peppermint-flavored shot containing four German liqueurs — equal parts Rumble Minze, Goldschlager, Barenjaker and Jägermeister — is also very popular, he says.
Across town at the Jazzhaus, 928 Massachusetts st. on a Tuesday night, bar opener Troy Pomeroy says bar patrons prefer a variety of exotic cocktails and shots ranging from the different "bombs," such as Irish Car Bombs (one-half pint Guinness, 1 ounce Jamison whiskey, one-half ounce Baileigh's Irish cream) and Jager Bombs (same recipe as Irish car bomb, substituting 1 ounce of Jagermeier liquor in place of Jamison) to what is called the "Pussy shot," Jazzhaus specialty named after it's sweet taste and pungent smell, which he says is a crowd favorite at the bar.
Exotic cocktails can also be crafty confectionary treats, appealing to the specific tastes of a courageous cocktail connoisseur. Such is the case for Kerstin Flierman,
St. Louis junior, who says she has a sweet tooth and likes to drink as well. During winter break, Florman had a chocolate martini at a restaurant and got hooked on the smooth chocolate taste with an alcoholic kick. After encountering this drink, Florman asked her parents for the ingredients to make chocolate martinis: Godiva liquor and Crème de Cacao. Now she makes chocolate martins all the time, from when she is getting ready to go out to when she's doing homework or just chilling out, she says, "My roommates think it's kind of funny because I'm kind of obsessed with them," she says, "I just love chocolate, and I love drinks, and it's the closest thing you get to liquid alcoholic chocolate."
Although she loves the "chocolate milk with a kick" taste of chocolate martinis, Florman says this isn't a cocktail to drink in excess in one sitting. "It's not like it I'm gonna make six and get tanked," she says. "It's a one-serve deal."

Interview:
Bob Schneider
By Chris Brown, Jayplay writer
Southern sound crafted from years of playing in Texas. Catch Bob Schneider when he comes through Lawrence to play The Bottleneck on Thursday, March 31.
Bob Schneider is a famous guitar god in Austin, Texas — where he has built a solid musical career for the past 10 years in such notorious local bands as the Scabs and the Ugly Americans. Just mention his name to anyone from Austin and chances are you'll receive an answer that can at least affirm his presence on the Austin music circuit or link him with actress Sandra Bullock, whom he says once dated. Falling somewhere in between Willie Nelson and Ben Harper, Schneider's music is simple yet distinctive and catchy. While you wouldn't be able to call Bob Schneider's music "Southern rock," at times it has a distinct
The title of your new album is "I'm Good Now." What do you mean by this?
Well, first, it's the name of a song on the album. I like things that have different meanings. Really what it means is he's good now because he's dead. I don't like to spell shirt out. I hate musicians who write songs that are literal representations of whatever they are feeling — like I'm so sad because...whatever. Why the fuck should I care? Why the fuck should anyone care?
I know you been a part of South by Southwest Festival in the past.
How's the South by Southwest festival going for you this year?
I don't associate with that organization. You don't get paid to play it and there is no need for me to play it and not get paid. I'm playing like five shows in the next two weeks here and if people want to come and see me play they can come to these shows.
What are your musical goals for this year?
I want to break the land speed record. It's going to be tough because A. I'm not much of a mechanic and B. I am afraid of speeds.
Wow, that'll probably be quite hard then.
I like to set myself up for massive disappointments.

Q: What was your favorite childhood toy?
Araoz: He will be Cristóbal, besi-
Araoz: Probably a soccer ball. Or maybe Transformers
Durda: My favorite childhood toy would probably be Legos.
Q: What's the last movie you saw?
Arazo: Bridget Jones's Diary.
(laughs) With my girlfriend. Last time we watched Troy, so it was my turn to watch Bridget Jones's Diary.
Arazo: Anchorman.
**Durda:** Either Ryan or Michael just because they're really pretty names and I have good friends who are named Ryan and Mike.
cally because that's my second name and it's easier than "Juan Cristobal."
Q: If you were a car, what kind of car would be?
Areaz: Probably I would be —I don't know — maybe a Toyota because they're comfortable, they last forever and you can trust in them.
Durda: Oh... probably an Escalade, all pimped out.
Q: What's the hardest class you've ever taken?
Areoz: Living Religions of the fucking East. I hate that class, I'm taking it right now, it's horrible, don't take it. I'm taking masters' classes, and that's the hardest class — this level 100.
Durda: Government, senior year of high school just because it was really hard and my teacher was pretty crazy.

Q
Cutoff and cumming: the facial hair debate
I'm in love with this girl who's a virgin and I told her that I'd wait as long as it takes to have sex because I don't want to pressure her. The problem is she's the one wanting it and I think it's only because I'm not a virgin. Should I believe her when she says she wants to or continue waiting?
a
-Eddy, junio
**Chris:** Let's not sidestep the facts here. You told her you'd wait as long as it takes because you want to bone a virgin. There's no shame in your game, Eddy. If she told you she wanted to screw just because you have experience, what's wrong with that? Show her how everything works, but you better bring your A game, she'll remember those 4 minutes for-ever. For-ever. For-ever.
Jessi! I applaud your good intentions, Ed. I think you should explain to your little darlin' that although you are a Kama Sutra king, you want to be sure that she is ready for good reasons. (Note: Good reasons do not include anything related to alcohol or other illegal substances.) There's absolutely no hurt in waiting, especially if you feel she is the one for you.
Q
Jessi! I keep the dog as backup in the case you do break up and you become a lonely, wilted spinner with only your doggie to keep you warm on dreary winter nights. As for privacy, try public restroom stalls, elevators and empty bedrooms at various parties on the weekends. Really, either put up with the fithy jerk and lock the door or "loan" your dog to a friend when the boyfriend stays over.
My boyfriend is very allergic to my dog, so he can never come over to my place and we can't go to his place either because his roommates are filthy jerks. What can we do to find privacy?
-Michelle, junio
**Chris:** You can shampoo your dog before he comes over to minimize the allergens. You can vacuum all the couches and carpets too. He can wear a face mask, take one of a zillion prescription drugs, tell his roommates to clean their shift up or break up with you for choosing a dog over him. Lots of options here. I love my dog and if I had a girlfriend, I just might have her too, but if one can't be around the other, you've got to make compromises.
Q
My wonderful boyfriend has facial hair that tickles me when we're fooling around and it drives me crazy! I want to tell him to shave it but I don't want to sound controlling. Any ideas?
-Kim, freshr
**Chris:** The ole "mustache ride" isn't doing it for ya, I see. A shame. Tell him. There's a chance he's only growing the beard to pleasure you scruffily. If he loves his beard, tell him you get off from the smooth feel of his shaven face. Guys will rip their faces off to give girls orgasms. At least I would. And have. Torn my face off that is.
Jesai: Next time you're fooling around with your ruggedly hand-some mountain man, I'd start squealing with laughter and flailing around so much that you squeeze his head between your legs and cause him to pass out. Maybe then he'll understand the ticklish effect of his scruff. Or you could always make a compromise: He shaves, you shave. (Wink.)

Notes from Underground
By Robert Perkins, Jayplay writer
With music, if you want something done right, you have to do it yourself.
Ben Davis, "The Crusher" of like Turner Overdrive plays during a house show at 1331 Vermont, like Turner Overdrive will play April 13 at Abe and
The door opens a crack immediately after I knock on it. From inside the house, a figure lurking in the shadows peers out at me.
"Hello?" the figure asks.
"Um, this might sound like a weird question, but is this where the Haunted Kitchen is?" I ask. I know full well that it is, but I don't want to alarm my barely visible host by making any accusations.
"Just a second." The figure leaves the cracked doorway to consult someone behind the doo. It is early afternoon on a Wednesday, and I'm hoping to talk to the guys responsible for the Haunted Kitchen, one of Lawrence's underground music venues. The Haunted Kitchen is run out of the house that I'm standing in front of, whose address the owners have asked me not to publish. The guys in charge have a reputation for being secretive, which has helped them avoid the trouble with the law that other similar venues face.
From behind the door I hear a barely
Suddenly, I'm face-to-face with Jeff Milner and Daniel Nokes, the guys who do most of the work for the Haunted Kitchen. When they're not at their day jobs or practicing with their band, the two spend their time booking bands and setting up shows. They've been friends since they were kids together back in Oklahoma City and have been running music venues for the better part of a decade - yet they're both only 22 now.
audible "...wants to know about the Haunted Kitchen," followed by a murmured response. Just as my eyes begin to adjust to the darkness behind the sliver of doorway that I'm peering into, the door swings open, and two guys with long hair and black T-shirts invite me inside.
When we met later for an interview, I discovered that I had stumbled upon a world unto itself, a world I hadn't even imagined existed: DIY. DIY, which stands for Do It Yourself, is an anti-consumerism counterculture that exists not only in music but in film, art and anything else that people have gotten fed up with buying from corporations and want to make for them.
The Haunted Kitchen is really the basement of a decrepit old house near the student ghetto, which is just east of campus. The first thing you notice when you see it
selves. DIY music venues are pieced together by music lovers who build stages in their basements, build or buy their own sound equipment and host their own shows — usually free of charge, as they tend to exist in areas that aren't zoned for commercial activity. On Saturday, Feb. 19, I set out to experience the world of DIY by hitting as many underground shows as I could in one night — starting with one at the Haunted Kitchen.
after the flaking yellow paint — is the porch, which sits precariously like the deck of a sinking ship. Somehow it manages to support a stained couch by the front door, where a half dozen people hang out to smoke during the show. I get there painfully early, so the porch is empty when I arrive. The flier had said that the show began at 8 p.m., which actually meant 11 p.m., as it turns out.

half-wave guys wearing black hoodies

groups.
The Kitchen's decor matches the musical tastes of its occupants. Posters from a couple of bands and random artwork — some of it Noakea" — patchily cover the walls. Beyond the kitchen at the back of the house lies the door to the real Kitchen — the basement. As small as it is, the basement is impressively well laid-out. Milner and Noakes have been doing DIY shows since they were 15, so they know how to set up a basement venue. When they first got the house, it already had a short stage built in the corner. They added a merchandise bar in the adjacent corner and a slew of decorations, like a plastic head hanging from the ceiling by a hook. Pillows sit in all of the window cases with foam encasements scattered around on the walls to muffle sound to the outside. They say that their neighbors never complain about the

noise, and the only time they had any real trouble with the police was when someone accidentally left the back door open, which they now keep locked shut.
The basement holds about 30 people, though when I get there—way too early—there are only a couple of people milling around. Noakes is the first to greet me as I walk inside, offering me a beer and the spot where he'd been sitting on the broken futon against the living room wall. He apologizes for the quality of the beer (Miliwakee's Best) as he presses the warm can into my hand. He frets a little about the lack of people at first, but about 40 more people will show up before the show starts. Though the Kitchen relies entirely on word of mouth and fliers to advertise, their shows tend to draw enough people to fill the basement.
As the night wears on, I find myself talking to an orange-haired girl who is a bit tipsy from pre-partying and a diminutive guy who seems to know everyone in the house. The girl is a freshman at the University of Kansas, and both are veterans of Lawrence DY shows. "I just have to see the Routabouts," the girl gushes, talking about the headling band. She turns to address the other guy, whom she knows from before. "Did you see them last time they came through?" she says.
He laughs. "Uh, sort of, I was on mushrooms at the time," he says, "and I kind of freaked out and had to leave." Eventually the two leave me to go have a smoke on the porch, so I join a couple of others in helping the Roustabouts to carry in their equipment. The guys in the Roustabouts tell me that though they don't play a lot of DIY shows — they're still in high school, which makes touring difficult — they know Noakes and Milner from the old days when the two used to run DIY venues back in Oklahoma City. They have up specifically to see them. Some bands, however, tour the DIY circuit almost exclusively. Milner and Noakes say they've brought in bands from as far away as the Netherlands, which is amazing considering that the bands don't really get paid.
The money issue is a big one for DIY venues. Because it would be illegal for residents of a house to charge money for holding shows in their basements — the houses are in residential, not commercial, zones — the people running DIY venues almost always ask for donations to pay for the bands' gas and such. The line between "donation" and "entry fee" can be a thin one for police officers who want to shut down a continual noise problem or landlords who want to protect their property from the damage that is associated with running aDIY venue. Meredith Vacek, who graduated from the University last May, wants to live at the Pink House and now lives at the Horror House, both DIY venues, and says that a misunderstanding about money was one of the things that got her first venue shut down. She and her former roommates at the Pink House used to run shows in their living room until she says, a couple of articles published in the Lawrence Journal-World reported that, among other things, the Pink House was
charging admission. Pete Berard, who also used to live there, says that he and his roommates did shows only as a "labor of love," but that the landlord shut the venue down shortly after the articles ran.
The Pink House was just one of the DIY venues to pop up in Lawrence during the past five years. Seniors at the University also might remember shows at the Halfway House, the Pirate House, the Horror House and the Kremlin. The residents of these houses formed a network for underground music in Lawrence. They all knew each other; the residents of the Pink House and Halfway House in particular used to hang out together all the time, and sometimes they both used the same guy as the Pirate House to book bands. And almost every member of each house has been involved with KJHK at some point. Despite their closeness, the houses booked a wide variety of music. Vacek says that while the Pirate House focused on punk and crust metal, the Halfway House and Pink House pulled in all kinds of bands: punk, pop, screamo, avant-garde post punk, you name it. Neil Mulka, Kansan staff writer, Leavenworth senior and former resident of the Kremlin, says that his house would take in whoever was willing to play there. With DIY venues, availability of bands often determines a show's content more than the musical tastes of the house's residents.
At about 11 p.m. the opening band, Oroku, goes on. Oroku is the Haunted Kitchen's house band. All five of the members live in the house; Milner is the lead singer and Neakes plays guitar. As soon as they assemble on the stage, the incandescent lights are replaced with red ones, and the collection of long-haired, black-wearing guys rip into a set of crust metal songs for an audience of about 20 people. The environment is as relaxed as the music is loud. Dylan Desmond, a former resident of the Pirate House, happens to be in the crowd that night. Desmond, Overland Park senior, lived at the Pirate House for a year when it was still a DIy venue. He says he still tries to hit DJ shows every now and then. The community was and is tight, so it isn't surprising that the guys from
The only thing the Haunted Kitchen and 1331 Vermont have in common, aside from both being DIY venues, is that they're both yellow houses. While the Kitchen is the embodiment of secrecy and organization, 1331 Vermont has an open, hapazhack feel to it. It doesn't even have a name; it's just "1331 Vermont." And while Milner and Noakes of the Haunted Kitchen have asked me not to publish their address, the residents of the other yellow house are more than happy to see their address in the paper, saying that they hope it will attract more people to their shows. Despite the lack of an address on the outside of the house, I have no problem finding it. Loud music blasts from the door as a swarm of people spill out of it, covering the porch and the lawn. With a crowd of easily 60 people milling about holding plastic cups, it looks more like a house party than anything else, which is roughly what the residents are going for. Patrick Struebing and Kevin Thompson, two of the four people who live at 1331 Vermont, say that the events at their house aren't strictly shows or parties, but more a combination of the two.
1331 Vermont — my next step for the evening — know all about the Haunted Kitchen and had even been to a couple of shows there.
In a tiny living room sandwiched between the kitchen (filled with kegs) and the foyer (filled with people looking for kegs) is like Turner Overdrive and at least 30 cheering people. I elbow my way around, trying to find a good spot, but eventually give up and resign myself to getting bumped into continuously by the stream of keg traffic. As I stand there, mashed in a crowd of people wearing hipster clothes and thick black-rimmed glasses, the lead singer and guitarist of Ike Turner Overdrive rip their shirts off and decide to deafen me with driving, high-energy rock. Thompson says that he and his roommates don't have a specific musical preference for the bands they book. They usually just ask their friends' bands to play their shows. In this case, at least, they seem to have lucked out and been friends with a band that the crowd likes.

The audience screams and cheers at the end of every song, completely unlike the relaxed, Zen-like enjoyment of Oroku at the Haunted Kitchen. Near the end of like Turner Overdrive's set, the guitarist starts spraying whatever he was drinking at the crowd, nailing us at point-blank range.
Struebing and Thompson say that 1331 Vermont tends to have some crazy parties/shows, which can be expensive for them. The night that I went to see them, Kevin got a $70 ticket from the police because of a noise complaint from an unknown neighbor. While the Haunted Kitchen has homemade soundproofing to prevent problems like that, 1331 Vermont has a broken window that does nothing to stop the music from leaking out. The tenants at 1331 Vermont also got a bathroom door kicked down by a member of the band Vibralux, who claimed he thought there was an orgy going on inside. Add that to the lovely pencil mural of random people's outlined faces that someone left on their wall, and that they'll have to explain to their landlord and all of the personal belongings that always get stolen from any DYI venue, and you can see that they aren't making any money on this deal. But when I asked if they were going to stop having shows because of the expenses, particularly the ticket, I got a laugh and a "fuck that; no," from Thompson. "We're having a party five days after I have to pay the fine," he says. Struebing says that they continue hosting events because, after years of going to great parties in Lawrence, he and his roommates want to give something back to the community. That, and they just really like to have huge parties.

The last venue I hit is Solidarity at 1119 Massachusetts St. After parking my car, I walk past the crowd outside of its Brothers Bar & Grill, 1105 Massachusetts St., and find my way to the radical library. There's no music — the first bad sign. The lights are off; also bad. Finally I see a sign on the door that says the show has been canceled. Later I was told that the show had been canceled because the band had broken up — no guarantees in DUI, but then, even mainstream venues are subject to cancellations.
Solidarity does double duty as both a radical library and a music venue. Volunteers Kat Randolph and Katy Andrus say that the venue does about two shows each month, packing people into the deceptively large space. Originally they were worried that they'd have problems with the police, being right across from the station, but Randolph and Andrus say that's Brothers and the dance studio next door tend to make much more noise.
The DIY scene actually works mainly by word-of-mouth, friend-to-friend communication, Vaeck says. With her punky hair and multiple piercings, Vaeck sticks out in the typical Lawrence crowd, and she seems to know everyone. She says that she and her roommates never had trouble finding enough people to fill their house for shows. When it comes to organizing on a national scale, DIY venues and the bands that play at them turn to a higher power: Book Your Own Fuckin' Life. BYOF began its life as a page in Maximumrocknroll
Magazine 15 years ago. Venues, bands and anyone who had a couch for traveling punk musicians to crash on posted their contact information. The page quickly became an independent book, which came out once each year. The problem with this was the considerable cost of putting out such a publication sans advertising, which would be counter to the generally anti-consumerism bent of the DIY scene — made it expensive to produce. The original editors also grew frustrated that much of the information would be outdated by the time it made its yearly run. Eventually the book went on the Internet at www.bvofl.org. Today it's run by Ernst Schoen-Rene, a self-described "computer guy" who took over after a devastating computer crash that wiped out a lot of information three years ago. It has 17,000 listings for bands, venues, labels and promoters and gets 15,000 hits every day. In Lawrence, the Haunted Kitchen is listed on the site, the guys from 1331 Vermont haven't even heard of it and the volunteers from Solidarity say they should really get around to listing themselves on it one of these days.
Schoen-Rene says the DIY scene started about 25 years ago, mostly as a result of how small and connected the punk rock community was. People would pass lists of who to call to find a venue or a couch to crash on. Because no one back then got into punk rock to make money — this was before the days when bands like Blink 182 made punk rock into
pop — everyone was more or less in it for the love of the music, Schoen-Rene says. During those early years, there were venues aplenty and tons of donation money. Bands could pay for all of the gas and food and make a little on the side too, Schoen-Rene says. Now, he says, the money's tighter, and a lot of the bands are in it with a delusion of making it big. The golden years are over, he says.
The scene is far from dead, however BYOFL is still going strong and Bruce Haring, founder of the DIY Convention, says it's only continuing to grow. The DIY Convention started in 2000 and drew more than 1,000 people this year. Haring says that with the rise of digital tools like the Internet, DIY has gotten huge — for better or for worse. "You have a ton of people producing out there now, which means you get a lot of really great stuff and a lot of shit," he says. Also, DIY has branched out from punk to other genres, to an extent changing the types of people associated with the scene.
Locally, despite the loss of venues such as the Pink House, the Pirate House and the Kremml, there are still places like the Haunted Kitchen, 1331 Vermont and Solidarity that plan to continue having shows. In addition, ex-Kremml resident Emily Elmore says she is planning to start a new DIY venue with her friend April Flemming and anyone else they decide to live with. The Springfield, Mo., senior says that she and Flemming are hoping to find a place in the student ghetto — a welcome change

Freedom from Negativity
How to respond to the people in your life who bring you down
By Erin Shipp, Jayplaywriter
Photo Illustration by Kit Leffler
"That's
that's not good enough.
“You'd look better if you lost weight.”
“Can you believe what she did?” “If no one else is going to do this, then it guess it's up to me again.” There are many phrases negative people use to hurt others. It’s the proverbial “if you hadn’t... then I wouldn’t have...” Chances are we can all fill in those blanks with something because we’ve experienced people like this in our lives.
Rather than constant criticism, some people influence our lives with negative actions such as smothering, selfishness or basically running over anyone to get what they want, says Erin Snodgrass, mental health clinician for Valeo Behavioral Health Care in Topeka.
Traci Kaiser, Overland Park senior, encountered a negative influence during his freshman year of college. His roommate and best friend from high school transformed from the typical good student to a lazy, video game-obessed person who stopped going to class and spent a lot of time in their room with his girlfriend. "I thought I knew him, but it became really hard to focus," says Kaiser. "There were people constantly in and out of our room."
Kaiser's roommate would tell him to loosen up, have more fun and not worry about the messy room. "He would say things that seemed like nothing to him but really affected me," Kaiser says. Soon, because of his roommate's influence,
playing video games became easier for Kaiser than reading a book or doing homework.
Recognizing negative behavior involves trusting your instincts. Snodgrass says many people can try to demean others in ways that make people question and doubt their instincts. She says people look to blame outside circumstances as well. She gives an example of a woman who had it all: a great job and a rich and loving husband. When her son died at age 21, she began drinking, and 30 years later she still uses her son's death as an excuse. The woman has negatively impacted her family by refusing to look at her own actions. Her husband prompted her to seek treatment many times, but she quickly relapsed after each. While drunk she went into fits of rage directed toward her family. Eventually her family got sick of it and she ended up divorced with little contact with her daughter.
Kaiser tried to deal with his roommate by sitting down and talking to him, thinking that he had a good enough relationship with him to do so. One of these talks eventually led to a fistfight, which served as their breaking point. Kaiser wanted to move out, but when there were no rooms available, he had to change his strategy. He says he had to be willing to ignore things and let them roll off his back. Instead of waiting and letting things get to him, he would immediately and politely confront his roommate about the things that bothered him. "It's all about knowing how to communicate with individuals," Kaiser says. "I had to adjust how I normally reacted to deal with him."
People who feel bad about themselves will usually treat others poorly. When they feel good about themselves, they have no motivation to run others down, Snodgrass says. Dealing with negative people can be difficult, but it involves recognizing the negativity as their problem and not your own. Being polite but detaching yourself emotionally works, but the best approach is not to react to them, Snodgrass says. They will find easier prey.
Dealing with negative people is only half the battle. Healing from the pain they've caused can be even more difficult. First you must realize that you can't control other people. It involves getting to a
point where you don't take it personally anymore and understand it's about them and how they deal with people, Snodgrass says. "The deal is, resentment and bitterness doesn't hurt them." Snodgrass says. "It just hurts us and robs us of the joy in life."
She says there will always be negative people around somewhere and you can't let them get under your skin. Even if you have to fake politeness at first, she says you'll be surprised at the results.
Kaiser and his former roommate are no longer friends, but he says the experience has made him a better person. "I've learned how to put my foot down," says Kaiser. "I was not so strong-minded before."

Against his will, Rollen Park junior Evan Billings was dragged out by his friends to go dancing. Then Lawrence freshmen Nathan Haley walked in the club, also against his will, with a couple people that Billings recognized. It wasn't long before Billings was asking his friends about Haley. Which soon resulted into Haley approaching him and them exchanging numbers. Later that night Billings called Haley to arrange a date. Billings and Haley have now been together for a year and two months. They haven't gone dancing since and are quite happy about it.

Robots
(★★★)
PG, 89 minutes,
South Wind 12
*Robots*, an animated children's comedy, captures the child in every viewer. The film is targeted toward a younger audience, but is fairly appealing for all age groups. *Robots* conveys an invaluable message of staying true to oneself, even under extreme scrutiny and disappointment. The movie is extremely entertaining and insanely clever, however, keep in mind...it is for little kiddies.
Rodney (Ewan McGregor) is a young, aspiring inventor who believes in the good in his fellow robots, or "bots" are they are commonly referred. He comes from humble beginnings, and recognizes the need for a change of lifestyle. Rodney leaves his loving mother and supportive father to travel to Robot City, where he dreams of selling his innovative creation to the infamous Bigweld (Mel Brooks). Unfortunately for Rodney, Bigweld, who was once revered for his devotion to
helping the common bot, has surrevered to the powerful yet menacing CEO of his company, Ratchet (Greg Kninwar).
Ratchet operates like a greedy tyrant. He is cruel to older, risky robots that lack the new, improved technology that his company offers. His motto: Why be you when you could be new? Cappy (Halle Berry) is a female, executive inventor in Robot City. She falls in love with Rodney as they attempt to save a species of robots. Fender (Robin Williams) is a quirky yet lovable but whose malfunctions never fail to amuse the audience. He is charismatic and outstanding.
Robots has wonderful underlying principlies. With today's television market saturated with shows such as Dr. 90210 and Extreme Makeover, watching a movie with the message "you are beautiful the way you are" is a breath of fresh air. Although a few of the jokes are rather racy for a younger audience, Robots is enjoyable and witter.

The Sea Inside
(☆☆☆)
PG-13, 125 Minutes,
Liberty Hall
Current events in Florida have brought the issue of death, and the right to die, to a forefront in many American's minds. Proponents for either side of the Terry Schiavo debate might find Alejandro Amenabar's newest film, The Sea Inside, an interesting mirror to this national conflict.
The Sea Inside tells of the true story of Ramón Sampedro, a Spanish quadriplegie who fought for nearly thirty years for legal permission to end his own life. Much of the power of this film is derived from actor Javier Bardem's compelling performance as Ramón. As Ramón pleas with the courts for permission to commit suicide, he is also met with the pleas of those around him to choose life instead.
The story is a powerful one, and it is beautifully shot by Amenabar (Abre los Ojos, The Others) and cinematographer
Javier Aguirresarobe. The problem arises when Aménabar delves into heavy-handed lecturing. As the main characters all devolve into walking stereotypes, I began to think I was watching a Spanish soap opera, or worse yet, a John Slayes movie. John Slayes is an "independent" American filmmaker who loves to filing a bunch of cookie-cutter characters in a room together and have them engage in faux-intelligent conversation.
Unfortunately, it appears that Amenabar has taken a page from Sayles' book, and like Sayles, he uses these characters to not-so-subsist instruct the audience how to think. The tale of Ramón and his wish for death is a powerful topic, but its treatment in this film ultimately comes up short. It you want a polemic on how to feel toward a person's right to die, then you will enjoy this film. But if you're looking for a story and not a snippet then you may need to keep looking.

Ladder 49
Movie (☆☆1/2)
DVD (☆☆1/2)
PG-13, 105 minutes, DVD
Ladder 49, directed by Jay Russell, is a charming film that reveals the rewards and adventures in firefighters' lives. Russell does a fine job walking the audience through this heroic tale, displaying the tragic events that occur in such a demanding lifestyle. The film is seen through the eyes of a dying firefighter reflecting on his life. Although a bit hokey at moments, Ladder 49 is a heartwarming account of the great courage and vital efforts of these selfless individuals who risk their lives to save others.
Jack Morrison (Joaquin Phoenix) is a
lovable friend with the presence of seasoned veterans. He proves himself as an asset to the fire department and his fellow firefighters by leaping out of windows and conquering uncontainable fires to rescue those in need. He falls deeply in love with Linda (Jacinda Barrett), who you may recognize from The Real World, Linda
Morrison adores her husband, but fears the dangers of his career. Phoenix and Barrett make a lovely on-screen couple with notable chemistry, but Barrett's occasional accent slips are somewhat distracting to the viewer.
Captain Mike Kennedy (John Travolta) is much more than the station supervisor. His comrades view him as a mentor and father figure. The supporting roles in this film help to express the kniskip and brotherhood the men feel.
Ladder 49 is a beautiful homage to firefighters and the sacrifices they make to ensure others' safety. It has a fantastic soundtrack and proves extraordinarily entertaining. It's a great rental for a Saturday night.

Guess Who
(☆☆☆)
PG-13,
97 minutes,
Southwinds 12
Loosely based on the Tracey and Hepburn classic Guess Who's Coming To Dinner? this remake starring Bernie Mac and Ashton Kutcher is actually both interesting and entertaining.
courtesy www.moviestalk.com
A young black woman brings her fiancé, a white man, home to meet her family. Her father is not thrilled about this, and it takes the course of the film for him to admit that it's because he's white. There are lots of interesting scenes, and many of them are brave for a film such as this, especially a dinner scene when Mac wants to hear "black jokes" from Kutcher. The pairing of Mac and Kutcher is brilliant, and the two work off each other with hilarious results. Kutcher puts in a surprisingly natural performance without repeating the character we know from Punk'd and That 70s Show. But Mac is truly the star of the film, and the rest of the characters react off his personality and charisma.
The film doesn't take itself as seriously as the original, but at the same time isn't slapstick humor. It deals with other issues besides race, such as gender roles in the family, marriage and changing generations. In many ways it would be better to compare this to the *Father of the Bride films* rather than to the original—it is just as embarrassing, funny and heartwarming, with a deeper political streak.
An interesting, thought-provoking movie that will keep you laughing.

Vivala Robots
in computer-animated movies, political subversion reaches to infinity and beyond.

In Robots, a computer-animated tale of mechanical wonders from the creators of Ice Age, a cadre of broken-down machines leads a revolt to overthrow an evil arch-capitalist. The shiny metal rebels, including the heroic Rodney Copperbottom (voiced by Ewan McGregor) and the trash-talking Fender (Robin Williams), live on the bottom rung of Robot City, picking up spare parts and barely scraping by. The machines unite and rise up against the oppressive Ratchet (Greg Kinnear), whose plan to sell a new generation of upgrades involves killing off all the old robots.
The most radical work
Rebels overthrowing a capitalist despot — sounds like socialism to me.
In fact, Robots isn't the first computer animation feature to espouse social ideals, if the House on Un-American Activities Committee ever re-emerges, such radicals as Buzz Lightyear and Rodney Copperbottom will surely be called to testify.
As HUAC and the Hollywood Ten so painfully illustrated in the late '40s and '50s, movies and politics have always had an enduring influence. The early 1960s were left-learning screenwriters and former
to come out of the Hollywood Ten was probably Dalton Trumbo's novel *Johnny Got His Gun*. In the book, a private gets all of his limbs shoved through the window and plays as a monument to the horrors of combat.
Trumbo's movies (A Guy Named Joe, Thirty Seconds Over Tokyo) were populist, socially conscious, mainstream entertainments completely devoid of overt propaganda. The ideas grew out of story and character, which is true of all of the great political films, from Stanley Kubrick's Dr. Strangelove or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb to Jonathan Demme's The Manchurian Candidate.
In Toy Story, the cinematic birthplace of computer animation features, a child's toys have the ability to spring to life. The toy box literally will not hold them. These playthings, including a reliable old cowboy named Woody (Tom Hanks) and an intergalactic upstart named Buzz Lightyear (Tum Allen), live as an extended family, as if transported from a '60s hipy commune. Freedom and self-determination as commodities make them a direct threat to the free-market system.
Such subversive ideas must have escaped the mind of Hanks, who's always been an outspoken critic of the "bad science" of socialist economics. For an altogether politically different take on freethinking toys, see Jee Dante's fun but fascistic Small Soldiers.
Three years after Toy Story, Dreamworks released Antz, the mother of all computer-animated socialist films. Z (Woody Allen) is a comically self-effacing worker ant stricken with a woman-size case of neuroses. He wants a life beyond slave labor for himself and his coworkers, embodied in his search for a mythical promised land known as Insectopia. In the army, Z bfriends Barbatus (Danny Glover), a weary foot soldier, who gets deCAPITATED in a devastating battle sequence. Barbatus' sudden, senseless death is a powerful anti-war statement worthy of Johnny Got His Gun.
Z inspires his fellow worker ants to rebel against the tyrannical General Mandible (Gene Hackman), ending in a revolution. In the course of this transformation he become synonymous with socialist ideals.
While Robots, Toy Story and Antz share political sensibilities, they mostly stand apart from other computer animation features. Two are downright pro-capitalist: Monsters Inc., which depicts the humanization of a giant corporation, and A Shark Tale, whose underwater frames are painted with indiscrete corporate advertisements.
Robots is now playing at South Wing 12. The Theatre St. Toy Story and Amex are available on DVD.

KASABIAN
Kasabian Kasabian
Named after the woman who was the driver for the Manson family's infamous trip to Roman Polanski's house in 1968; Kasabian robe in on the last wave of British bands after marching to the top of the charts overseas. And it did so with an upnured nose and overall disdain for any or all of their contemporaries (straight from the hard streets of rural England, that is). The band stands on the premise of a musical revolution by referencing various revolutionary and preaching "live for today" and "music is life" ideals. It combines guerrilla imagery with socially provoking lyrics to fuel its
ambiguous "revolution." With its self-titled debut, Kasabian blends catchy Bri pop/rock with techno to form something that sounds like Oasis meets Prodigy. The band combines driving beats, catchy hooks, punchy riffs and swirling effects. The music, though catchy, stems mostly from the late '80s dance scene and is hardly as progressive as it is supposed to be. Kasabian has the attitude and the ambition, but they could use some credibility. Listen once, shake your booty, maybe groove a bit, don't take seriously, discard.

Torque Records
For his debut effort Aaron Beckum is taking the world onto his shoulders. This album is quirky as hell and just makes you feel comfortable with wearing sweatpants and rocking out with the windows down. Beckum's confidence rolls off his tongue in his sharpened lyrics. The melodies are based around a minimalist structure that does well to stay out of the way of this voice of reason that the world is going to come to love. "Give me a suit with pockets on the inside cause I still have ideas I need to hide".

Star Wars:
Republic Commando
Xbox PC
At first I only wanted to play Star Wars' Republic Commando because part of the story takes place in the third movie. I had also just stopped playing Brothers in Arms and I didn't know if I was ready to do another squad-based first-person shooter, but after learning how to run my squad and which grenades do what Republic Commando became a really intense experience in the Star Wars universe.
All images courtesy of games.yahco.com
The combat was fun and I always found destroying a droid dispenser challenging and rewarding. One thing I really hate in games is escort missions. I hate guarding people, but my squad actually did a better job than me as long as they didn't get overzealous. Each of the three members of the squad developed a personality throughout the game and their actions in combat reflected that personality. Scorch liked to throw grenades. Sev would charge a horde of battle droids and Fixer would always shoot something that snuck up on me.
I'm not saying the game is without fault. The levels were linear and felt repetitive, even my squad mates agree. Sev said, "How many hangers do they need," and Scorch replied, "What can I say Wookies or langer们的." And the most annoying situation is when your squad suddenly decides to stop what they were doing and stand around. I really hated it when someone would abandon a turret or stop sniping because the immediate threat is over.

Even with its faults, I looked the way the Star Wars universe looked from the perspective of a clone. I didn't have any Jedi powers. I wasn't an ace pilot and I never once saw a light saber. The world was dirty and dark. The story was cool, except the ending didn't sit right with me, and I did see the beginning of what looked like a major battle in *Episode III*.
The battle system is seemingly standard at first, but after playing a while you'll see that it can be used in various ways to take out your enemies. You can

Xenosaga is one of those games that makes you feel just like you're inside a dark theatre watching a sci-fi flick, and not a bad one at that. There are so many cut-scenes in this game you'll be leaning back in your chair watching the story unfold rather than having control over your characters. It's not quite as annoying as in Metal Gear Solid 2.

have a character attack normally, cast a spell (if they know any) and even team up with another character to perform combo moves. Figuring out the nuances of the battle system is probably the most important thing in the game so you can successfully defeat bosses and advance the story. It's not an easy task, but for any RPG game fan Xenosaga II will provide hours of entertainment.

God of War PS2
When Devil May Cry 3 came out a few weeks ago, action adventure games seemed to have found a new champion. The game combined all of the best elements of the genre and rolled
them into one tight package, leaving little room for improvement. What a difference a few weeks can make.
Enter God of War, Sony's new king-of-adventure game. The game is centered around Kratos, a former Spartan soldier, and his quest for revenge on the Greek god of war, Ares. Taking place in ancient Greece, much of its appeal comes from its wonderful use of Greek mythology. Dozens of gods and monsters from classic Greek works are represented here, most of them with some sort of new and interesting twist.
The gameplay itself is also exceptionally well done. The combat is fast-paced and strategic enough to warrant more

Overall, God of War is so good that it's hard to find fault with it. The bar has been raised. This is the new standard for action adventure gaming.
Even the game's presentation is superb. First-rate character models and animation meet with detailed environments to round out the graphical package. Coupled with the wonderful soundtrack and some of the best cutscenes in recent memory, God of War is truly a showpiece for the PS2.

The main premise of the gameplay is the same: You pick one of the fighters and play with him through the tournament. In story mode, you uncover what it is they're fighting for, whether it be for money or respect.

The fighting environments have also improved. Now when you crash into obstacles, not only does it still take away some health, but it also
changes the environment, leaving broken walls and crushed pavement.
Tekken 5 has added a new feature that comes from the pages of Virtu Fighter 4: Evolution. You can customize characters; changing their names, buying them new gear and altering their appearance. Also with each fight you win, you have the ability to go up in rank and fight harder opponents.
Tekken 5 includes the first three Tekken games and a minigame called Tekken: Devi! Within where you take control of Jin Kazama in a *Streets of Rage* esque game to unlock the history of the Mishima family.
Tekken 5 is another great all-around fighting game. I wish the character endings were better, but it's still worth purchasing.

My younger siblings turned me into a responsible older sister, even at the age of 6
Illustration by Scott Drummond
The little mother in me
By Lynn Hamilton, Jayplay writer
The
TIC day my brother was born my life changed forever. I was not quite 6 years old, but his little life influenced mine tremendously. I drew a heart poster nearby the size of my body to give to him in the hospital. I used markers to fill the poster with sporadic squares of red, blue and green around the words, "I Love My Little Brother Seth." From the moment I met him I became his big sister and little mother.
In some ways my childhood stopped then. Some little growup in the 6-year-old me wanted to take care of this other person. I did my own things too; I had my friends and was an aspiring gymnast. But my driving purpose was to be a role model for Seth. I did the same things two years later when my sister Rachel was born.
My mom appreciated my help. She had remarried a few years before Seth was born, and then after Rachel was born we had six kids living in the house — a seventh was at college. She never asked me to help with the kids; I just wanted to. By the time I was in third grade, I baby-sat Seth and Rachel and could cook mac and cheese for dinner. My mom still tells people that at the age of 10, I could take care of two babies, change diapers, cook dinner and clean. I wasn't the youngest anymore, and I loved the responsibility.
Rachel and I shared a room when she was 1 and I was 9. I didn't mind making space for her crib and I loved to bathe her, put her in her pajamas and tuck her in. Seth adored me and love my attention. We played games together, read books, and I entertained him with my latest gymnastic moves. Seth and Rachel's lives gave mine purpose and made me feel important.
Eight years of taking care of my brothet and sister turned me into a full-blown perfectionist by the time I reached high school. I wanted to get good grades and succeed in sports. I accomplished both of these goals. My cross-country team won state my sophomore year, and I was valedictorian of my class. I never got a detention at school or a grounding at home. My mom didn't have to remind me to do my homework or laundry. She didn't have to pack my lunch, remind me of school pictures or sign me up for the ACTs. I decided to come to the University of Kansas on my own. I sent in my application, scholarship essays and financial aid without help. I didn't need it. I was different than a lot my high school friends who needed their moms to organize their lives. I was my own person.
During orientation at the University, while most parents browsed the information fair to learn about campus services for
their kids, my mom sat outside and waited on me to come back from enrolling. It never occurred to her to get information for me because I always did it for myself. Now she acknowledges, "I wasn't the parent, you were." I don't feel resentment about this because it's who I am.
I am confident, independent, organized and responsible. I don't miss deadlines or forget things. I rarely ask people to do me favors. Every winter I dread the snow because my car tends to get stuck, and I hate having to ask someone to drive me. I hate the feeling that I need someone else to help me. I like to take care of myself and everyone else because that's the way I grew up.
Seth just turned 16. He can drive now. I tell him every day to wear his seatbelt and be careful. I drive the three hours home to Oxford to watch him run the football in his high school games and am his bigest fan and loudest cheerleader when he hurdles during track every spring. Rachel is 14. She is a KU fanatic and will become a Jaya-hawk in less than five years. She is a scraper on the basketball court and a leader to her teammates, I do everything I can to support them. They are like my children, and my mom will tell you that I raised them, too. I must admit, they turned out pretty dam good.

OUT WITH THE OLD
Family gives daughter Allen Fieldhouse as gift
BY OWEN MORIS
satire@kansan.com
TONGUE IN BEAK WRITER
The Board of Regents approved a proposal five to one to sell the naming rights of Allen Fieldhouse for $12 million to the Laurie Family of Columbia, Mo. For the second time, the Lauries have decided to name a venue after their daughter Paige. Allen Fieldhouse will now be called "Paige's Fieldhouse."
"This is a wonderful day that will hopefully vindicate our daughter from all the trauma she has gone through." Bill Laurie said at a press conference in the fieldhouse yesterday. He added, "Paige, Paige honey, do you want anything else? How about a jet, sweetie?"
The Laurie family originally named the new arena at the University of Missouri after their daughter, Paige Sports Arena. But when it was discovered she'd cheated while attending University of Southern California, they gave the naming rights back to Missouri, who changed the arena to Wal-Mart Cheater Arena.
The Lauries though were not too happy with the name change. So, they decided to contact other Big 12 Conference universities to see if they could buy the naming rights to their arenas. The only other university to respond was Baylor, who wanted $15.50 for the naming rights to their arena. The Lauries picked that one up too. Paige has suggested "The OC Arena."
"It's the beginning of a new
era," Chancellor Robert Hemenway said. "No longer do we have to keep living in the past at KU by naming all these buildings after old fogies. Instead we have a new future! One that is $12 million richer."
"I guess it's sort of cool to have buildings named after me," Paige said, while tanning at the Palm Beach Country Club. "Though I would have liked an island better. Where is KU anyways? St. Louis? Are they the Wildcats?"
Many students were noticeably upset after hearing the news.
"I don't care that they rename the building for cash," Lukas Philips, Bumblepatch senior, said. "But to name it after a family from Missouri, that's unacceptable. Next thing you know, they're going to start
recruiting players from prison like Missouri."
Hemenway and Bill Laurie were unphased by the disgust and anger that their announcement created.
“Mr. Laurie is one of the rich ... I mean, nicest men in the world,” Hemenway said. “He's all right in my book and Paige is such a nice girl. I'm sure she'll never do anything bad again.”
The University of Southern California had threatened to take away Paige's degree once it was discovered that she'd cheated and had never actually attended classes at Southern California, or been in southern California. It recanted when Bill Laurie threatened to buy the university and turn it into a Wal-Mart.
FIELD HOUSE
- Edited by Nikola Rowe
The Laurie family will cut the red tape at the renaming ceremony April 20 at "Paige's Fiedlhouse." Paige Laurie has asked that "only really popular people show up. No nerds." Laurie also has requested the hardwood floor of the fieldhouse be repainted pink and blue with pixies. Phog Allen's statue began softly weeping.

BADMINTON SHOCKER: 63-64
KU Badminton loses ShuttleHawk seniors' birdies mauled by Cougars
BY SAM HOPKINS

TONGUE IN BEA WRIER

Ron Langdon stares blankly at the shuttlecock in his hand, wondering what might have been. The senior and starting service specialist on KU's badminton team says he knows that he let down his school, fans and family. But more than anything, he disappointed himself.
"Every little kid playing badminton in the backyard dreams of getting the shot we had," said a dejected Prashant Marpathsary, also a senior,
"but sometimes the birdies just won't fall where you want them."
Kansan file photo
The University of Kansas suffered a surprising defeat at the rackets of Clearfield College, a small school that two years ago barely had a badminton club. Now, the Clearfield Cougars have secured their school a spot in the National Collegiate Badminton Association and an upset victory to boot.
Prashant Marpathsary, ShuttleHawk senior, attempts the final volley before blowing it. The KU basketball team ended its season yesterday, losing a shocker to underdog Clearfield College, 63-64. The ShuttleHawk team toured one of the best senior classes the school had ever seen. The senior class included Marpathsary, All-NCBA First Team selection Ron Langdon, Dat Phan, Ralph Pinkerton and Chas Wolberry. When asked what happened on the final play, Marpathsary said, "I just got my shuttlecock blocked. I hate getting shuttlecock blocked."
The ShuttleHawks, as fans call them, had high hopes going into this season. Ron Langdon was a pre-season All-NCBA First Team selection and is still a candidate for the prestigious Nigel Fletcher award, which is the greatest individual honor in collegiate badminton.
The final set of the final match of the 'Hawks season came down to a lob that was offered up by Clearfield on a set play gone awry. The team failed to capitalize, and unfortunately a splendid day for Ron Langdon — not so great for his teammates — ended with his missing his trademark overhand "smasheroo," which had been the scourge of opponents all season long.
Next season looms heavy on the horizon for the returning players, some of whom will have to shake a late-season scoring drought that eventually caught up with the ShuttleHawks. Coach Rick Malrek is optimistic, though many fans are disappointed with the quick loss in his second season as the ShuttleHawks' coach.
I came to Kansas from Guyana because I had a dream to play badminton in the States. I won't let that dream die. Rock Chalk ShuttleHawk, baby."

"Losses happen and it's rough," he said, "But we'll move on because we're a bad minton team and we're made
of tough stuff. I have a lot of good players who will continue to develop over the coming years. We're focusing especially on strength and endurance training with the
younger guys."
Sophomore Londino Latrice uses his own personal journey to remind him that brighter days are ahead.
Though he put on one of the worst performances of his young career in the season-ender, he remains optimistic.
"I came to Kansas from Guyana because I had a dream to play badminton in the States," the 19-year-old mused. "I won't let that dream die. Rock Chalk ShuttleHawk, baby."

PC CRAZY
Border rivalry renamed ... again
University of Kansas Athletic Director Lew Perkins announced yesterday that the official title of the KU-Missouri rivalry would be altered in order to avoid what he referred to as "an overly competitive sense of competition."
Perkins noted that the official moniker of the rivalry, "The Border Showdown," was too confrontational and might send the wrong message to impressionable students of both universities.
"I've spoken with Missouri's AD, Michael Alden, and we both agreed that the current name did a disservice to the actual showdowns that are going on in other areas of the world," Perkins said in his weekly press conference. "The word 'showdown' has such a powerful meaning to those who are involved in them, that we did not want to risk offending them. Granted no one has complained yet, but there is the potential that someone may complain at some point in the future, so we must be proactive."
Perkins announced that the rivalry would be renamed the
"Border Co-existence" in reference to the fact that both universities do co-exist. Perkins said that the new name would encourage Kansas fans to think of the University of Missouri as a neutral entity and not as a rival.
As part of his continuing efforts to completely emasculate the Kansas sports image, Perkins has also stated that any shirts, signs or chants that encourage the University to succeed at the expense of others would also be prohibited.
"I go to sporting events and see T-shirts that say 'Muck Fizzou' or 'Go Jayhawks' and I worry that we're sending the wrong message to our kids." Perkins said. "After all, the purpose of collegiate sports isn't to beat other teams — it's to generate revenue." Perkins finished the press conference by stating that with new corporate sponsorship, the official title of the rivalry would be "ESPN presents the Cooper Tires Border Co-existence sponsored by Nextel."

McGwire tear juiced for Congress hearing

When reached for comment about his use of tearoids and steroids by the University Daily Kansan, McGwire said he was unwilling to talk about the past.

Nick Weiser, Dighton freshman, bows his head in prayer for Pope John Paul II during a special service held Friday night at the St. Lawrence Catholic Campus Center, 1631 Crescent Road. A group of students from the center, including Weiser, traveled to Rome during spring break when they saw the Pope as he waved to the crowd.

STAFF AND WIRE REPORTS
Lawrence residents hold vigil in memory of pope
Nick Weiser knelt down in the front pew of the chapel at the St. Lawrence Catholic Center Friday night.
The Dighton freshman hung his head low as he drapped his rosary over the side of the pew in the front row.
His prayers were for Pope John Paul II, who died Saturday in his Vatican apartment, ending a long, public struggle against debilitating illness. He was 84.
Kasonia Kisangani, December 2004 graduate from Manhattan, sajd more students could have shown up to the center's vigil, 1631 Crescent Road, had they
known about it, but he was happy with the turnout.
"It was necessary to pray for the pope because it's an opportunity for everyone to come together in prayer," he said.
More than 50 students joined Weiser Friday night for a prayer vigil for Pope John Paul II.
The vigil was a time for people to mourn, but it was also a time to celebrate the pope's life, the Rev. James Sanchez said.
"We're here to recognize the great legacy our Holy Father is leaving us," Sanchez said in a sermon. "His legacy is that he embodied, he witnessed and he inspired hope." Sanchez said the pope did that when he lived and
he would continue doing that in death.
The Rev. Vince Krische was impressed by the general concern of the Catholic leader.
Krische said people had stopped him in Lawrence Friday to ask him about the pope's condition.
"I just think it's really interesting. It's the big word on the street and everyone — not just Catholics — is talking about it," he said.
Weiser and others at the gathering said they felt a personal connection to the Holy Father. Weiser heard the pope speak when he attended a spring break pilgrimage to Rome less
than two weeks ago.
"It feels like a connection having been at one of his last celebrations he appeared," he said.
obrations he appeared.
The pope's final public appearance was Wednesday when, looking gaunt and unable to speak, he briefly appeared at his window.
His health sharply deteriorated the next day after he suffered a urinary tract infection.
In John Paul's 26-year reign he helped topple communism in Europe and left a deeply conservative stamp on the church.
He reaffirmed the church's ban on artificial birth control and denounced in vitrofertilization

Marriage ban on ballot tomorrow
BY JASON SHAAD
jshaad@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Kansas will be the first of four states in 2005 to decide whether to amend its state constitution to prohibit same-sex marriage. The proposed amendment will be on ballots across the state tomorrow.
South Dakota, Tennessee and Alabama will follow Kansas and vote on state constitutional amendments later this year.
While 17 states already have constitutional amendments prohibiting same-sex marriage, 23 others have pending amendments, according to the Human Rights Campaign, a national organization working for equal rights for lesbians, gays, bisexuals and transgendered persons.
Kansas, like many other states, already has a state statute that prohibits same-sex marriage and defines marriage as a contract between two people of the opposite sex. The proposed amendment would take this statute a step further.
The first part of the amendment defines marriage as a civil contract between one man and one woman. By this definition, all other marriages would be declared void.
The second part says the state will not recognize any relationship, other than marriage, as having the rights or incidents of marriage.
This would deny some tax breaks and benefits to people in civil unions who are not married, Aaron Paden, Lawrence senior, said. And that takes things too far, Paden said. He has helped organize a rally against the amendment at 12:20 today at Wescoe Beach.
"Our constitution should be there to protect citizens," Paden said. "For the constitution to be
used to take away rights from people is bad. It seems almost evil."
Daniel Rea, St. Louis freshman and activism chairman for Queens and Allies, said the amendment was too specific.
"It's not just defining marriage," Rea said. "It's denying rights to any partners or couples outside of marriage."
Student Senate voted last month to oppose the amendment. The amendment conflicts with the University of Kansas Code of Student Rights and Responsibilities, which protects students from harassment based on sexual orientation.
While denying the recognition of other civil unions is a bold step, it is necessary to ensure that the amendment is more than just theory, Lee Bickerstaff, Emporia senior, said.
"If there are no real world effects, then you're just arguing semantics." Bickerstaff said.
If the amendment does not pass, the legislature could still amend the state's statute prohibiting same-sex marriage, which would function similarly to the constitutional amendment.
But that is unlikely, Allan Cigler, professor of political science, said. Governor Kathleen Sebelius can veto any new statutes.
"My guess would be that she doesn't support the amendment," Cigler said. "I think it's the amendment or nothing."
Polls will be open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. tomorrow. Registered voters can contact The Douglas County Clerk's office for voting locations at 832-5267. A majority vote is needed for the amendment to pass.
Rock the Kansas vote
Cigler said he doubted the house and the senate could get the two-third vote required to override a governor's veto.

ing nasty split in competition of sports
Face-off: Steroids creating nasity spit in competition of sports Athletes have been doing everything they can to gain an advantage in sports. It started with relatively harmless practices like the pitball pitch in baseball. Finnish distance runner Lasse Viren then started blood-doping and won several Olympic gold medals. Now it's moved into full-fledged steroid use, most notably in baseball where Congress has threatened to intervene.

KUnited campaign fined
ELECTIONS
BY DANIEL BERK
dberk@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITE
Student Senate candidates have been campaigning on Wescoe Beach for the last two weeks, and have now taken it one step further and started campaigning door to door in some of the residence halls.
Two members of the coalition went door to door handing out KUnited campaign materials to people in the residence halls. The Elections Commission ruled Thursday that this type of campaigning was illegal and required a $25 fine.
"This has been a problem in the past, but when the coalition gets off like they did, they will continue to do it all day," Connor said. "I think the commission should have sent more of a message."
Jack Connor, member of the Student Voice coalition, filed the complaint against the KUnited members and thought the punishment the coalition received should have been stricter.
Shelly Roben-Lojka, the complex director for Lewis and Templin halls, said that the policies on campaigning in the residence halls had not changed from past years.
Roben-Lojka said that signs were hung in the lobby of Lewis and Templin halles every year to help reinforce their policy. Roben-Lojka said people who do not live in the residence halles should always be accompanied by someone who does live in the residence halles.
"In the four years I have been working here, I have seen no change in the way people campaign." Roben-Lojka said. "We put signs up and that
is the best we can do."
Roben-Loika said it was not up to the residence halls directors to decided what the punishment should be for people campaigning in the residence halls and said it should be left up to the elections commission.
The complaint that Connor filed was against a specific member of KUnited, Lance Mall, Clay Center freshman. The commission ruled Mall was not guilty for his campaigning, however, it found KUnited as a whole guilty for supporting Mall in something they knew was against the rules.
Mall and Nick Sterner, presidential candidate for KUnited, had no comment on the commission's decision and said the coalition had not decided whether they would appeal the commission's decision.

He demanded celibacy of Roman Catholic priests and said yet again that the priesthood was not open to women. He did give in to the demands of liberal Catholics to allow altar girls.
A man who had lived under both the Nazis and the Soviets, he loathed totalitarianism, which he called "substitute religion." As pope, he helped foster Poland's Solidarity movement and bring down Communism. Once it was vanquished, he decried capitalist
During World War II, he appeared on a Nazi blacklist in 1944 for his activities in a Christian democratic underground in Poland. B'nai B'rith and other organizations testified that he helped Jews find refuge from the Nazis.
While the pope championed better relations with Jews — Christianity's "older brothers," as he put it — the Vatican formally recognized Israel in 1993. John Paul was intent on improving relations with Muslims. On a trip to Damascus, Syria, in May 2001, he became the first pope to step into a mosque.
As John Paul's death neared, members of the College of Cardinals were already headed toward the Vatican to prepare for the secret duty of locking
themselves in the Sistine Chapel to elect the next pope. Tradition calls for the process to begin within 20 days of death.
Among possible successors are German Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger — one of the pope's closest aides and the Vatican's doctrinal watchdog. Others mentioned include Brazilian Cardinal Claudio Hummes, Cardinal Oscar Andres Rodriguez Maradiaga of Honduras, Cardinal Francis Arinze, a Vatican-based Nigerian, Cardinal Christoph Schoenborn of Austria and Cardinal Dionigi Tettmani of Italy.

The number of first-time freshmen living in residence halls increased 12 percent in the past two academic years to 2,983 students. With a high number of freshmen, increasing numbers of upperclassmen and Hashinger Hall closing, the KU Department of Student Housing is cutting some of the perks for returning residents.

The department issued housing contracts March 14 for students who intended to return to the residence halls. Contracts were due on March 30, and first choices were not granted to everyone, Diana Robertson, associate director of student housing, said.
"Everyone who requested a contract got one, but their assignment wasn't necessarily what their first choice was," she said.
Freshman enrollment increased this year, and the number of freshmen living in residence halls is growing at a steady pace. The number of freshmen in residence halls has gone up from 2,701 in the last academic year to 2,983 in this academic year, according to student housing. The increase of 282 students this year is more than the total population currently living in Lewis Hall and Templin Hall — 275 students.
Hashinger is closing this May for renovation, taking away 460 student living spaces. When Hashinger reopens in Fall 2006, it will have 375 student spaces.
Robertson said student housing will compensate for the increasing freshman class and loss of space by not allowing any upperclassmen to live in a two-person room alone, as it had in the past. All of the two-person rooms will have two people in the residence halls next year, she said.
The "squatter rule," another returning-resident perk, will be eliminated for next year. The rule allowed residents to keep
the same room for the following year if they turned in their Intent-to-Return forms by the deadline, which was February 2.
Robertson said the department also issued 250 fewer ITR forms this year because of the Hashinger renovation. In the past, student housing has issued about 600 ITR forms. They issued 350 this year.
"We're still offering the same number of fresh spaces, just issuing fewer returning contracts." Robertson said.
Student housing issued TIR forms in January on a first-come, first-serve basis, which caused a rush of returning students to housing headquarters, adjacent to GSP-Corbin Hall.
Laura Evers, Ellsworth resident and Olathe sophomore, said it was nerve-racking trying to keep a spot in the residence halls for next year. Evers got the student housing office before 8 a.m. on the first possible day, Jan. 24, to turn in her ITR form. She said with the first come, first-serve

"We held ourselves accountable and faced the consequences for our actions," he said. "We need to move on and hopefully all of us will learn our lessons and mistakes."
Chapter fraternities at the University that have parties must fill out a party notification form and send it to the Interfraternity Council for registration. The unregistered party had 16 kegs of beer, $517 in cash and signs that advertised the party.
Moreno went to Indiana this weekend with the fraternity's vice president and the president of the alumni board. Moreno was scheduled to meet with the national fraternity's board of trustees this weekend, Moreno said in a previous
interview.
Pilshaw said the atmosphere of the house upon Moreno's arrival was self-explanatory.
"We were obviously really down," Pilshaw said. "There's nothing positive that came out of this weekend."
Pilshaw said he expected the national charter to be revoked since the University sent the national fraternity a letter recommending the course of action.

For now, Plisham will be the only member of Phi Kappa Theta to remain in the greek community
"I'd like to see equality toward all the houses," Pilshaw said. "There seems to be a bias toward the bigger houses."
Even though the fraternity could appeal to the IFC General Assembly a second time, Moreno said it would not because of the decision made this weekend.
He said he wanted other fraternities to look at Phi Kappa Theta's situation as an example.
"We hope this shows to a lot of fraternities that maybe it's time to re-evaluate how their chapter is ran," he said. "This should definitely be a wake-up call to fraternities to take risk management seriously."

On average, Jefferson's Restaurant, 743 Massachusetts St., loses approximately $2,000 dollars a day when Kansas would have played, said Matt Schram, manager of Jefferson's Restaurant.
Bars around the city are feeling the loss of revenue normally expected in late March, Menshizadeh said. JB Stout's is losing approximately the same amount of money, per game, as Jefferson's Restaurant.
Although the potential tournament revenue that the bars may have counted on is not technically a loss of revenue, establishments in the city have come to expect more than a first-round loss.
"We didn't expect KU to lose to Bucknell," Schram said. "Although we don't have the same business, we are not doing anything to try to bring it back."

WASHINGTON — Tipped they may have missed evidence a decade ago, FBI agents searched the former home of convicted Oklahoma City bombing conspirator Terry Nichols and found blasting caps and other explosive materials apparently related to the 1995 attack, officials said Friday.

FBI finds bombing materials
FBI officials said the material was found buried in a crawl space of the house in Herington, which wasn't checked by agents during the numerous searches of the property during the original investigation of Nichols and Timothy McVeigh.

Explosives found in home of Oklahoma City bombing conspirator Nichols
KPDM NEWS
"The information so far indicates the items have been there since prior to the Oklahoma City bombing." Agent Gary Johnson said in a telephone interview from Oklahoma City.
FBI spokesman Jeff Lanza said in Kansas the materials were found in boxes, much of them wrapped in plastic, and were being sent to the FBI lab for analysis. The FBI is operating on the assumption the evidence was from the original Oklahoma plot, he said.
CRIME
The extraordinary discovery, just three weeks from the 10th anniversary of the bombing of the federal building in Oklahoma City, which killed 168 people, is likely to prove a new embarrassment to an FBI already burned by missteps in this case and the pre-Sept. 11 period.
FBI spokesman Jeff Lanza answers questions for the media Friday in Herington. Tipped they may have missed evidence a decade ago, FBI agents searched the former home of convicted Oklahoma City bombing conspirator Terry Nichols and found blasting caps and other explosive materials apparently related to the 1995 attack, officials said Friday.
In coming days, agents will be looking for any fingerprints and other clues on the evidence that might show where the explosives originated and who may have possessed them before they got into Nichols' home.
Nichols, who is serving multiple life prison sentences on federal and state charges, hasn't
Nichols and McVeigh, who was put to death for his role in the Oklahoma City bombing, had used blasting caps, fertilizer and fuel to make the bomb used to destroy the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building.
"They were there often," said attorney Brian Hermanson, who represented Nichols in last year's Oklahoma state murder trial that ended with Nichols' conviction. "It's surprising. I would think they would have done their job and found everything that was there."
lived at the property in years, and FBI officials said the information that led to the discovery indicated Nichols had buried the evidence before the attack on April 19, 1995.
McVeigh's trial lawyer Stephen Jones said Friday he has known some materials gathered for the attack were never located by the FBI and this discovery could answer some of those questions.
One of Nichols' attorneys said Friday the discovery was either a hoax or a major failure by the FBI to find all evidence after searching the home numerous times.
Lanza said the material was buried in the crawl space under about a foot of rock, dirt and gravel, an area that had not been searched during the original investigation.
"But I'm still suspicious that it could be something planted there," Hermanson said. "The house was empty for several years and if somebody wanted to put something there to incriminate Terry they had plenty of time to have done it."
Dan Defenbaugh, the retired FBI agent who ran the Oklahoma City investigation, said he was dismayed that his agency may have missed the evidence. "When you do a search warrant of that importance, you have to make sure it's thorough," he said.
FBI agents went to the property Thursday night and then summoned a bomb squad after finding the potentially dangerous materials, Lanza said. The search ended late Friday afternoon and the evidence was being shipped to the FBI lab outside Washington.
"Depending on the situation, thats something that may not necessarily be searched, especially given the fact that there
was no information there was anything in there, and even if you searched the crawl space at that time and dug through the rock and rubble you wouldn't find anything until you went at least a foot down," he said.
Lanza said the information that spurred the search indicated that "Nichols was responsible for hiding these devices" and "we are operating under the assumption that Terry Nichols put them there."

Steroids: Home run or strikeout?
Steroids killing competitive nature and honesty of sports
Drug-infested athletes in professional baseball have broken legendary records for years, and now Congress is finally stepping in.
Major League Baseball is not only promoting illegal use of drugs, but also influencing youth that cheating and lying is OK. The league finally has to answer questions about its dark underbelly.
America's pastime, which used to be a celebration of sport, is now a scientific experiment of chemical reactions. Men look like the Incredible Hulk. While they keep growing, the players hide behind lies and cowardice, suggesting another part of their anatomy is shrinking.
Not long ago, steroids were unheard-of in high school athletics. Now one of every 16 athletes takes performance-enhancing drugs. Professional athletes are role models, whether they want to be or not. When kids start looking up to druggies, it becomes a problem.
Donald Hooton testified to Congress about his high school son, who after taking steroids, committed suicide in 2003. "Players that are guilty of taking steroids are not only cheaters, you are
PAIGE HIGGINS

cowards," he said. "Show our kids that you're man enough to face authority, tell the truth and face the consequences. Instead, you hid behind the skirts of your union, and with the help of management and your lawyers you've made every effort to resist facing the public today."
Just because this problem is in sports, people think Congress should not get involved. Sports are not a necessity of society. It's pathetic that entertainers and athletes are paid more than teachers and doctors. The league, from a business point
of view, is a billion- dollar corporation.
Players who cheat and lie to increase their salaries need to be reprimanded.
Steroid policies in the Olympics are tough. If athletes test positive for steroids.

What if you found out that your fellow employees were cheating in order to get ahead, and your boss wasn't doing a thing about it, maybe even offhandedly encouraging it? You might end up cheating right along with them. But is that what we are coming to? Are honesty, hard work and integrity really not priorities anymore? If not,

Rewards of steroid use can outweigh risks
Barry Bonds, Mark McGwire and other steroid users with phenomenal natural ability deserve to be put up on a public platform and pelted with fastballs by the pitchers they undermined for so many years. For steroid users with mediocre talent, it isn't as easy to judge.
The decision of whether or not to cheat is something an athlete deals with all the time. In the case of a minor league baseball player or a professional bench warmer, there is much incentive to use illegal performance enhancing drugs.
The drugs could be a stepping-stone to reach the next level. While teammates are in the locker room "juicing" each other, taking their game to the next level and earning more money and playing time, the mediocre player is faced with the decision of whether or not to join his colleagues in cheating. If he doesn't, he may never realize his dream of making it in the big leagues.
What makes the decision even more difficult is the fact that the people who are there to ensure a level playing field turn a blind eye to the cheating, or even encourage it. In his book, "Juiced":

Baseball Got Big," Jose Canseco claimed that while George W. Bush was part owner of the Texas Rangers, he knew about steroid use among his players, including All-stars Ivan Rodriguez.
Raphael Palmeiro, and Juan Gonzalez.
Canseco, a former major league baseball player and avid steroid user, believes it would be impossible for anyone within MLB not to know about the rampant use of steroids. People associated with MLB insist Canseco is lying, but there has yet to be a defamation suit against him.
According to Canseco, 80 percent of professional players use steroids; other more conservative estimates range from 10 to 30 percent. With it being so easy to get away with cheating, why shouldn't players take the chance of crippling their bodies in order to accomplish their lifelong dream?
Steven Michalik, former Mr. U.S.A., Mr. America and steroid user, said that steroids bring a per- son's personality traits to the extremes.
He also claimed that steroids greatly increased his libido and corrupted his morals and values.
"If you are a little psycho, you become a big psycho," he said.
Michalik blamed steroids for his liver and heart disease, impotence, and even a stay in a mental institution.
Then again, Jose Canseco and some others with extensive knowledge on steroids claim that the drugs can be perfectly safe if used under close medical supervision.
The reasons not to use steroids are simple: They can be harmful to the body, they are illegal and cheating shows a lack of integrity and respect. On the other hand, the incentives to take steroids are possibly even more lucrative: It could help a ball player accomplish a lifelong dream and possibly even earn a multi-million dollar contract.
Imagine that you had always dreamed of becoming a doctor or a lawyer, but when you went to take the
exam, all of your peers were cheating, inflating the score necessary for you to pass. If you didn't join in on the cheating, you could never reach the pinnacle you had always dreamed about. Would it even be considered cheating if everyone else were doing it? If you knew you could get away with it, would you do it, too?

Bill distances key meth ingredient
TOPEKA — A key ingredient for making methamphetamine no longer will be within easy reach of the public under legislation sent Friday to Gov. Kathleen Sebelius.
Directed at meth makers, the bill was a compromise worked out by House and Senate negotiators. The Senate approved it 39-0. The House vote was 119-2
Sebelius spokeswoman Nicole Corcoran said, "She will sign that bill without hesitation."
It will require certain cold and allergy tablets containing ephedrine or pseudoephedrine to be sold only by pharmacies from behind a counter. Customers will have to show identification and sign a log book. It makes it illegal for retailers to sell more than three packages within a week to a person.

Canada plans to dispel drug use
The Canadian Institutes of Health Research is conducting a clinical trial called the North American Opiate Medication Initiative in Canadian cities to give free heroin to addicted users in an effort to take them off the streets, lower the crime rate and prevent health hazards, according to a press release by the CIHR.
The $8.1 million study will provide half of the volunteers pharmaceutical-grade heroin while the other half will receive methadone, a treatment for heroin addiction and cravings.

Family feud survives death
▼ TERRI SCHIAVO
Autopsy results expected in several weeks
BY VICKIE CHACHERI THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
TAMPA, Fla. — Terri Schiavo's body was cremated Saturday as disagreements continued between her husband and her parents, who were unable to have their own independent expert observe her autopsy.
The cremation was carried out according to a court order issued Tuesday establishing that Michael Schiavo had the right to make such decisions, said his lawyer, George Felos. He said plans for burying her ashes in Pennsylvania, where she grew up, had not yet been completed.
Terri Schiavo's parents, Bob and Mary Schindler, had wanted to bury their daughter in Pinellas County so they could visit her grave.
Terri Schiavo, 41, died Thursday after the removal of the feeding tube that had kept her alive since 1990, when she suffered brain damage that court-appointed doctors determined had placed her in a persistent vegetative state. Her parents had fought in court to keep her alive, disputing the doctors' opinions and saying there was hope of improvement.
Michael Schiavo has not spoken publicly since his wife's death, but Felos said Saturday: "He's holding up. It's very difficult for him."
Michael Schiavo is required to tell his wife's parents of any memorial services he plans for Terri Schiavo and where her ashes are interred.
The Schindlers plan to have their own memorial service tomorrow at Holy Name of Jesus Catholic Church in
Gulfport.
The Schindlers had sought to have independent medical experts observe their daughter's autopsy at the Pinellas County Medical Examiner's office, but the agency refused their request, family attorneys David Gibbs fii and Barbara Weller said Saturday.
The autopsy was completed Friday, the day after Terri Schiavo died, and results are not expected for several weeks.
The examiner's office has said it would conduct routine examinations and look for any evidence of what might have caused her 1990 collapse.
Representatives of the medical examiner's office did not return a call seeking comment Saturday.
The Schindlers have accused Michael Schiivo of abusing his wife, a charge he vehemently denies.
Over the years, the couple have sought independent investigation of their daughter's condition and what caused it.
Abuse complaints to state social workers were ruled unfounded — although one investigation remains open — and the Pinellas state attorney's office did not turn up evidence of abuse in one brief probe of the case.
Gibbs said the medical examiner's videotape, pictures and tissue samples from the autopsy could be reviewed by other experts if the family asks. While the autopsy report will be a public document, images will not be made public under a 2001 law passed after the death of race car driver Dale Earnhardt.

KANSAN SPORTSWITER
The last home regatta on Saturday left the Kansas rowing team's seniors with some good memories. All four varsity Iavhawk boats took first place.
The warm, sunny day brought families and friends to a segment of the Kansas River near Second and Indiana streets to honor the six seniors.
"I'm really proud of the team." Kansas coach Rob Catloth said. "Since it was our only home event, it was nice to have a big crowd here. It was a good show for our fans."

Both varsity eight boats — boats manned by eight rowers — were ahead basically the

"We had good rhythm the whole way," Chapman said. "We were able to pick up even more at the end. So it felt really good."
The second varsity eight boat finished with a time of 6:45.9, with Tulsa finishing at 7:06.4 and Drake at 7:17.8. Other victories included the second varsity four boat at 7:33.1 and the first varsity four boat at 7:20.3. Senior rower Ashlea Kramer was on the first varsity four boat, along with the second varsity eight boat.
"We raced really well and stayed pretty calm throughout the race," she said. "We zoned it and rowed right past them."
Catloth said he was pleased with the team making the transition from practice to race day on the Kansas River.
"They executed well today," he said. "The goal is always to use the improvements you make

Galindo contemplates transfer
Kansas coach Bill Self confirmed rumors Friday that freshman forward Alex Galindo could transfer to a school closer to his home in Newark, N.J.
"I was notified this morning by a radio station
that there was a rumor concerning Alex Galindo, and they asked me if there was any truth to the rumor," Self said. "There is certainly a possibility that he could transfer and there is also a possibility that he could stay. He has been very open."
Self said he would meet with Galindo and make an announcement early this week.

Gamano averaged nine points and nine minutes a game for the Jayhawks this season. He proved to be a legitimate three-point threat, averaging 44 percent from behind the arc. The freshman forward hit critical three-pointerers in victories against Georgia Tech and Texas A&M.
Galindo said there was a possibility that he could transfer, but didn't sav it was definite.
"Coach and I have met a couple of times since the season ended," Galindo said. "There is still a lot of stuff to think about and talk about when he gets from St. Louis."

Texas A&M outscores Kansas 20-2 in series
On Saturday, Kansas started strong during the first five innings, but the A&M squad was able to score nine times during the final two innings. In the top of the seventh, Scarborough nailed a three-run home run off the scoreboard that broke the game open. Elle Pottrott, freshman catcher, made two throw-outs for the lavawhacks on Saturday.
The Kansas softball team extended its losing skid to six after two losses to No. 6 Texas A&M this weekend. The Jayhawks lost 13-1 on Saturday and fell 7-1 yesterday.
Christina Ross, freshman pitcher, started the game for Kansas and pitched for the first two
innings, striking out the side in the first before Serena Settlerem, junior pitcher and co-captain, finished the game. After a rough sixth innning, Settlierem came back strong in the seventh.
Settlemier said the players had been stuck in a rut, but he was confident they could get back in their groove and move on.
She said she has struggled with her location this season.
"I focused on hitting my spots and keeping the ball in the zone today," she said.
The layhawks pulled within two in the fifth off a RBI single from Jessica Moppin, junior second baseman. But the Aggies pulled away late in the game, eventually winning by six.

country next year, but those schools will not be able to match the enthusiasm that is given to basketball players here in Lawrence. Those schools don't have 1 percent of the tradition that Kansas' basketball program has to offer.

Not too many schools can say that they have fans that know what their recruits look like. You are clearly a fan favorite.
If you leave, you are going to miss playing in front of 16,300 fans every home game — the sell-out exhibition games against Division II teams because the fans want to see you play. You get a standing ovation every time you walk out on the court, more than an hour before tip-off.
You received the most playing time of any of the five freshmen in your class. Where else in the country would you be able make a three-point shot on New Year's Day against Georgia Tech or make difficult shots at Rupp Arena against Kentucky? You exuberate the kind of confidence that fans in Lawrence love, and your passion for the game is great. This team needs your shooting skill. You were one of the few players who were able to knock down that difficult shot when it mattered most.
Your coach knows he put you in a difficult position at times. Most of the time you played this year you did so in a foreign position, guarding a post player. Time after time you were put in this tough spot, yet you were still able to be successful. Next season with the development of some of your freshmen teammates you will be able to

The Kansas crew team joined the varsity rowing team on the Kansas River this weekend.
The coed team competed against Kansas State, Wichita State and the Kansas City Rowing Club. The team competed again yesterday in Omaha, Neb., against two Creighton teams, Wichita State, Iowa State, Nebraska, St. Thomas, K-State, St. Cloud and St. Louis.
The weekend marked the beginning of the spring season. John
Devins, novice rower and Fairway junior, was pleased with the results.
"We did how we were expected to do," Devins, University Daily Kansan sportswriter, said. "We did a solid job and won our share."
Saturday gave the team a good feeling about the rest of the season.
"Our first race showed us a lot of progress that we have made from last season," novice rower Quentin Odes, Chicago senior, said. "Things are looking good."
First place finishes for Saturday included the women's varsity four, men's varsity four and women's lightweight four. Other races such as
"We didn't win all our races, but we know what we need to do improve," varsity rower Anna Foerster. Topeka sophomore, said.
the women's and men's varsity eight finished in second place.
"It kind of warms you up," novice rower Tricia Blackburn, Overland Park freshman, said. "Since we just had a race at KU, you would think it would be stressful, but it's not. It sort of gets painful, race after race, but it just makes you want to leave nothing behind."
"It was an overall great day," he said. "I'm really proud of the way they rowed. It was an excellent performance."
Omahale brought a quick turnaround for the team. But the rowers didn't seem to mind.
The team usually makes a quick recovery when it competes two days in a row. Odes said.
Yesterday's victories included
The team won the men's varsity eight for the first time in five years. Coach Jeremy Struemph said the program was moving up.
"Sunday was a much better day than Saturday," Devins said. "We improved in every boat and had great success in our efforts as a team."
The team will travel to Indianapolis in two weeks for its next competition.

Kansas loses to Baylor; swept in doubles matches

KANSAN SPORTWRITER
After posting two straight road victories for the first time this season, the Kansas women's tennis team (4-11, 3-4 Big 12) fell to 12th-ranked Baylor, 6-1, in Waco. Texas, on Saturday.
"It was a good win for us," Baylor coach Joey Scrivano said.
Baylor, which reached its highest-ever ranking at No. 12 last week, has won four straight matches and 14 of its last 15.
The Bears were without two of their top players, freshman Zuzana Zemenova and sophomore Klara Zrustrova. Both players did not play as a result of their involvement in tournament
matches last fall, Scrivano said.
The Jayhawks failed to register a victory in the doubles competition, falling in all three matches.
In singles, Kansas managed to earn a point, courtesy of freshman Elizaveta Adeveeva.
The native of Obninsk, Russia, defeated Baylor's Carolin Walter in straight sets, 6-2, 6-2.
"She is going to be a heck of a college player," Scrivano said of Avdeeva. "I was impressed with her poise on the court. I give her a lot of credit."
January.
Junior Christine Skoda finished off Janet Durham in straight sets, 6-3, 6-0. The former Big 12 Player of the Week is (5-2) in the Big 12 Conference.
Freshman Stephanie Smith, who saw her two-match win streak snapped versus Baylor, redeemed herself with a victory against Katja Kovacic, 6-1, 1-6, 10-6.
The Jayhawks fell 4-3 to Texas Tech Sunday in Lubbock, Texas.
Avdevella got past Cigdem Duru in three sets, 7-5, 0-6, 7-6.
The Jayhawks lost the doubles point for the second straight match, failing to win a single match.
The Jayhawks will return home this week and take a break from conference action, as Kansas will host Tulsa on Wednesday.

move back to your natural position at small forward. If you stay for next season, you are going to be a key part of a team that will be so unbelievably young. If you are worried about playing time, you shouldn't be. While some of the incoming freshmen may be able to play the same position as you, you have the experience. You proved last season that you shine in the face of adversity. This team is going to need leadership next season and you could be one of the players to give it. It is difficult to replace four seniors, but you and the other players would be able to be just as good of leaders as this year's graduating class.
I hear that you want to move closer to home. Why would you leave when you have a town of 100,000 that has embraced you and will embrace any player that plays basketball at this institution? The whole city is your family.
Alex, I really hope that you look at what being a basketball player at Kansas has to offer.
There is no place like it, and this team needs you to stay.

Mangino holds scrimmage to prepare Jayhawks for season
Coach Mark Mangino held a scrimmage at Memorial Stadium on Saturday.
Quarterbacks Adam Barmann and Jason Swanson were efficient in the two-hour scrimmage. Barmann, junior, was 12-20 for 98 yards, including two touchdowns and a rushing touchdown. Swanson, senior, was 21-36 for 169 yards and two touchdowns.
Redshirt freshman Marcus Herford did not see any time at quarterback but did catch four passes for 41 vards.
Sophomore Charles Gordon caught eight passes for 70 vards.

Junior running back Clark Green led all rushers, as he ran for 84 yards on 17 carries, including a five-yard touchdown run. Gary Green had 12 carries for 50 yards.
Kansas football team signs junior college transfer
The Jayhawks landed another junior college transfer for next season, according to rivals.com
Clavens Charles committed last week. Charles is a three-star recruit, according to the Web site, and played cornerback at El Camino College in California.
Charles, who stands at 5-foot-9 and weighs 200 lbs., will enroll for summer classes in June and then begin working out with the team. Charles runs a 4.5-second 40-vard dash.
Charles was also considering Boise State, Central Michigan and Middle Tennessee State.
SOCCER
The Kansas soccer team won its spring opener on Saturday. The Jayhawks defeated the Minnesota Golden Gophers, 2-0, at the Jayhawk Soccer Complex.
Freshman defender Afton Sauer scored the Jayhawks' first goal when she received a deflection from junior forward Caroline Smith from the far side of the goal and scored.
Jayhawks win spring opener against Golden Gophers

A woman is taken into custody by riot police Saturday in East Lansing, Mich., after Michigan State lost 87-71 to North Carolina in the NCAA Tournament semifinals. Police in riot gear dispersed rowdy Michigan State fans who poured into the streets following their team's loss in the Final Four. They arrested more than 60 people.

in practice and put them into the race, and that's what they did."
The novice team struggled but walked away with second-place finishes in its three races: First Novice Eight, First Novice Four and Second Novice Four. Assistant coach Jennifer Myers, who heads the novice team, expressed some disappointment.
"We have the ability, but mentally we need to get tougher." she said.
This week the novice women will practice some longer race pieces so the shorter races won't seem as hard, she said.
The races were followed by senior recognition and a barbeque.
Individually the seniors came up for recognition with their families.
As a senior, Kramer said she was upset about
this regatta being the last one in Lawrence, but also realized most of her season was ahead of her.
"It's sad that it's the last one here, but it will be different at the end," she said. "Being a senior won't really hit me until the last race of the season."
"We still have so much of our season left," she said. "This is only our third regatta. I'm sure it'll get more sad at the end though."
Chapman said she shared Kramer's feeling.
The coaches have been proud of the seniors and are excited to continue the rest of the season. Myers said.
"They have provided a lot of leadership for our program," she said. "They're really showing our younger rowers and coxswains what it takes to be a class act."
The Jahawks will race again this Saturday in Manhattan for the Kansas Cup.

Championship game features 'team' versus 'talent' matchup
ST.LOUIS — The best team in the country all season is an underdog today. By now, Illinois is used to it.
Even though they've only lost once, have tied
ILLINOIS
and have been ranked No. 1 in the country since December, the Illini (37-1) have had trouble getting their due much of the season.
Illinois is the "Team." North Carolina has the " Talent."
Never has that been more true than in the buildup to tonight's championship game, when Illinois faces North Carolina (32-4) in a match being billed as Team vs. Talent.
NC
The Illini say they don't
take offense to the comparison
Often during their interviews yesterday, though, they found themselves defending the way they're perceived — as the unsung group of guys who "play the game the right way," compared to Carolina's group of stars.
"We have NBA people at our games every time," Illini coach Bruce Weber said. "We're going to have some guys drafted, whether it's this year or next year. But we don't have quite the names, I guess, and athletic guys that maybe they have."
The reason the Tar Heels get the edge starts with Sean May, the 6-foot-9 center who averages 17.1 points and 10.9 rebounds this season.
North Carolina also has Rashad McCants, Jawad Williams and Raymond Felton. They'll all go to the NBA soon, as will the sixth man, freshman forward Marvin Williams.
"They'll have a lottery pick coming off their bench," Illinois forward James Augustine said. "They're obviously more talented. But when it comes down to the situation, it's who's the better team."
Nobody has won more than Illinois — ever. With their 72-57 victory over Louisville in the semifinals, the Illini matched Duke (1986,1989) and UNLV (1987) for the most wins in a single season with 37.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1R
Nothing went the Jayhawks' way yesterday, particularly when Potterf or went down with an injury to her leg in the top of the third, when A&M third baseman Jamie Hinsaw ran into her. Potterf hung onto the ball and got the out. The extent of her injury is unknown. She was replaced by Ashley Goodrich, junior outfitier.
Catch me if you can
McDonald has stolen 49 bases consecutively without being thrown out. The team is next in action against UMKC tomorrow at Arrocha Ballpark. Game time is scheduled for 3 p.m.
Bunge said she would look for the team to take a little frustration out on UMKC.
"We need to play hard and play aggressively and see what happens," she said.
Kansas coach Tracy Bunge said of the Aggies, "They're a team that is pretty much on fire. I'm really impressed with the way they're playing ball. My hats off to coach (Jo) Evans and her staff."
"If she puts anything down on the field that is halfway decent, she is going to beat it out," Bunge said. "If she gets on base, she's going to steal second and then she's going to steal third."
Amanda Scarborough, A&M freshman pitcher earned the victories for both games, moving her overall record to a stellar 20-0. She earned Big 12 Pitcher of the Week and the USA Softball National Player of the Week for games last week.
Texas A&M had an arsenal that included center fielder Sharonda McDonald. She stole four bases during the weekend becoming the career record holder in stolen bases at Texas A&M in only a season and a half. Bunge said McDonald could be the fastest player in the country.
The Aggies broke both games open in the sixth inning. On Saturday, they were able to score four runs on two hits in the sixth to gain a seven-run lead. Yesterday, they put four on the board in the sixth, including a three-run triple from Jamie Hinshaw.

Caleb Santos-Silva, Witcha freshman, dives out into the air after the ball during a game of catch with Kyle Owens, Kansas State freshman, behind Ellsworth Hall on Daisy Hill yesterday afternoon. Many students dotted the hill yesterday to play sports, lay out, read or just relax. Daisy Hill wasn't the only place on campus where people were enjoying the warm weather. Students were behind Oliver Hall performing similar activities, while others lounged by the pool at Naismith Hall.

Aggies rally to take 2 in 3 game series
BY MATT WILSON
mwilson@kansan.com
KANSAN SPORTWRITER
The double by Schweitzer extended his hitting streak to seven games.
"This was one of the greatest games that I have been a part of." Kansas coach Ritch Price said of the victory. "We were able to overcome some mistakes and keep fighting to come up with a win over a quality team on the road."
Saturday's game was a different story. Texas A&M pounded Kansas pitching for 19 hits en route to a 12-4 victory. With a 4-2 lead in the third, Kansas senior starter Clint Schambach was roughed up for five runs before leaving the game. The Aggies
Winning the first game of a three-game series usually bodes well for the rest of the weekend. Don't tell that to the Kansas baseball team.
For the second consecutive weekend, the Jayhawks failed to turn a series-opening victory into a series victory. Texas A&M, like Nebraska the weekend before, rallied to win the last two games of the series. The Jayhawks dropped to 22-12 overall and 2-4 in Big 12 Conference play.
Kansas junior first baseman Jared Schweitzer's two-run double in the top of the 12th inning scored junior Ritchie Price and senior Sean Richardson and gave the Jayhawks a 7-5 victory against the No. 16 Aggies Friday night. The Jayhawks had to rally after relinquishing an early 4-0 lead. Senior pitcher Mike Jagurski had a solid outing, going 6 1/3 innings and allowing two runs. Junior Don Czyz (3-1) picked up the victory in an extended relief appearance. The Jayhawks' closer pitched 4 1/3 innings and struck out five.
ran away from there, giving senior pitcher Kyle Marlatt his fourth victory of the season. Schambach fell to 2-3.
Richardson was a bright spot for Kansas offensively. He went 2-3 with two RBI. The Aggies were paced by junior first baseman Colby Mavroulis and sophomore third baseman Austin Boggs. Both homered and had two RBI.
"They came out swinging the bats and jumped on us early." Price said. "We came back and took the lead in the third, and I really liked our chances. Then all of a sudden the floodgates kind of opened."
Yesterday's game was wellpitched by both teams. Kansas jumped out to a 1-0 lead in the second inning on a single by freshman designated hitter Brock Simpson. Junior pitcher Kodiak Quick gave up only three runs before leaving the game in the bottom of the sixth with the Jayhawks trailing 3-1. Richardson brought the Jayhawks closer, making it 3-2 with a sacrifice fly in the seventh. That was as close as Kansas would get because the Aggies added two more runs in the bottom of the inning. The Jayhawks' rally fell short in the ninth, and Texas A&M defeated Kansas 7-5. Quick took the loss and dropped to 7-3.
Texas A&M improved its record to 22-10 overall and 4-5 in the conference. Their season continues with a Tuesday game against Sam Houston State before going to Missouri next weekend.
Kansas will return to action Wednesday in Hoglund Ballpark against in-state rival Wichita State in the first of four games between the two clubs this season.

New policy making noise
Change in sound ordinance results in increased citations
BY JOSHUA BICKEL
jbickel@hansan.com
KANSLAN STAFF WRITE
Noise citations are on the rise after a Lawrence Police Department policy change on Jan.19.
Since the change in January, Lawrence police have issued a total of 54 noise citations. In 2004, they issued 48 citations for the whole year, according to police records.
The previous policy required that police officers contact the complaining party before issuing a noise citation. Under the current policy, police officers can respond to the site of the disturbance without contacting the people who complained.
Sgt. Dan Ward, Lawrence Police Department spokesman, said the increase in enforcement showed that the policy change had been effective in allowing police officers to respond to noise disturbances.
Shannon Firestone, Overland Park junior, has seen the effects of the change firsthand.

"They we're really nice about it though," she added. "They just told us to turn down the stereo and smoke in the back."
Sam Deutch, Overland Park junior, said that he had seen an increase in the number of police officers at parties.
He didn't think the policy change would have much of an effect on curbing parties.

Hate is not a KU value.
Hate is not a KU value.
Those who share this belief can express it in unique ways this week, through the University of Kansas' Hate Out Week. The purpose of the week is to bring awareness about issues of hate and oppression that still exist on campus, said Santos Nunez, director of the Multicultural Resource Center.
The MRC, the Office of Multicultural Affairs, 'the Diversity Peer Education Team and the Association of
The organizations have several events planned this week, including a brown bag discussion on same-sex marriage and a dialogue intended to answer the questions, "How far have we come?" and "Discrimination and Oppression in our society: does it still exist?"
The wall made its first appearance in 2002. Students, faculty and staff gathered in front of Stauffer-Flint Hall and wrote

Student Senate elections will be held April 13 and 14. Here is a look at the platforms of the three coalitions and their likelihood of feasibility.
DELTA FORCE
Lovemaking maintenance
No hidden fees
♦ Platform issue: Delta Force will partner with Watkins Memorial Health Center to bring free pregnancy and STD testing along with condom dispensers in University housing.
♦ Platform issue: Work to eliminate all fees associated with academic services including transcripts and career services. Students already pay $574 in student fees each year.
Smart tuition decisions

♦ Platform feasibility: Rick Morrell, associate vice provost for student success, said the fees for transcripts would have to be paid some way. "We have not had any discussions about this is in our department yet," Morrell said.

- **Platform issue:** Implement a requirement that additions or increases to student fees be approved by referendum.
- **Platform feasibility:** Steve Munch, student body president, had to veto a bill last month to ensure that no fees were increased without a referendum. No fees were added or increased without a student vote this year.
Student Voice opposes the proposed CLAS differential tuition — which the majority of students voted against — and any other unnecessary tuition increases.
- Platform issue: Uppose guaranteed tuition, because it projects increases in tuition before it occurs.
- Platform feasibility: Munch recently submitted a draft of the proposed guaranteed tuition to University administrator's.
Multicultural money
♦ Platform issue: Delta Force plans to restore block funding for multicultural groups, including Black Student Union, Asian American Student Union, First Nations Student Association and Hispanic American Leadership Organization.
KUNITED
STEINER JUNGES
- **Platform feasibility:** Aaron Quisenberry, associate director of Student Involvement and Leadership Center, said that if these student groups did receive block funding, it would not be right away. "We just gave out block funding for the next two years." Quisenberry said. "If these groups do want and try to apply for block funding, they would have to wait to apply until November 2006."
Easier time online
- Platform issue: Work with the Athletics Department to implement an online ticket redemption system for basketball.
Young at Heart
- Platform feasibility: Jim Marchiony, associate athletics director, said this was something the Athletics Department was already working on. "We're not doing this because any particular group has asked us to do it," Marchiony said in a previous article in The University Daily Kansan. "We are doing this based on our desire to improve the system and have the best possible system for students."
- Platform issue: Online service to pay our parking tickets, instead of waiting in line.
Open student government
Platform feasibility: Director of Parking Donna Hultine said the parking department has been working on this issue for a year and a half. Hultine said there have been hold-ups because of the parking department's software. "We think we are very close to making this happen," Hultine said. "This is something that will hopefully happen even if KUUnited is not elected."
+ Platform issue: Allow all students to submit legislation to Student Senate through an open-bill submission process
♦ Platform issue: Protect fraternity and sorority, residence hall, scholarship hall, Black Student Union and Hispanic American Leadership Organization seats on Student Senate.

BENEFIT FOR SUDAN
When a tsunami hit Southeast Asia in December, bobbie-frances mcdonald thought it was a tragedy for more than one reason.
Austin Hart, Wichita senior and president of Amnesty International's
The tsunami devastated hundreds of thousands of people. Thousands more responded with donations to aid survivors. While mcdonald mourned for survivors, she mourned just as much for the loss of donations to assist relief efforts in another tragedy — genocide in Sudan, Africa.
- Who: Amnesty International
- Ammery International will host "Hero. With Sudan," a benefit concert to stop genocide in Darfur, Sudan.
- What: Concert and guest speakers to aid Doctors Without Borders in Paris, Sydney
}
When: Tomorrow from 8 p.m. to 2 a.m.
At Liberty Hall tomorrow, mcdonald will speak about genocide in Sudan for a benefit concert hosted by Amnesty International, a human rights organization. The event, called "Here. With Sudan," will feature seven local bands, three guest speakers and four film screenings. All proceeds from the concert will go to Doctors Without Borders, an organization that delivers emergency aid to victims of tragedy.
Where: Liberty Hall, 642 Massachusetts St.
"The tsunami was terrible," said mcdonald, who operates Sudan Advocacy Action Forum, a grassroots group that educates people about Sudan. "Woman had their children ripped from their arms. But women in Sudan have had their babies ripped from their arms and killed for the last 25 years."
+ Cost: Free. $10 donations are encouraged.
She learned about Sudan in 1999 after reading about it in the newspaper. She later traveled to Sudan on her own. As a nurse, meddonald thought she could do something positive. But with no electricity and only one doctor for every 86,000 people, the trip was an eye-opener.
"I was so useless." mcdonald said.
Sudan has been in a complex civil war since 1989. Over 340,000 people have died, and each year about 30,000 people die in Darfur, a region in western Sudan about the size of France, mcdonald said.
"Right now it is the worst humanitarian crisis in the world," Hart said.
KU chapter, said he hoped the event would make people more aware of the situation in Sudan.
The genocide is a result of multiple things. It's a complex combination of race, religion, natural resources, land-grabbing, displacement and ethnicity, mcdonald said.
Source: Amnesty International
"When I came back I was committed to finding justice and peace. But it wouldn't be by antibiotics, it would be by politics."
That is why medonald will speak at the benefit concert tomorrow.
Spreading awareness about Sudan was more important than raising money, said Bryan Onwuka, a 2002 KU graduate who helped organize bands for the event.
But Amnesty International was encouraging people to make donations. Onwuka said.
"That stuff only costs about 20 cents," Onwuka said. "Any donation will go a long way to helping these people."
People are suffering and dying from deadly infections, upper respiratory infections, cholera, polio and diarrhea. Many of these people just need water, honey and salt to cure diarrhea, he said.

Issues unite Asian students
The trip would have been shorter, but a tire blowout less than three hours into the trip caused a four-hour delay. The group arrived at its destination, the Midwest Asian American Student Union spring conference, just two hours before the first workshop Saturday morning.
Grant Huang and eleven other KU students piled into three cars last weekend for what turned out to be a 17-hour road trip to the University of Michigan.
Huang, St. Louis freshman, said he hoped next year's conference would be a little closer to Lawrence.
Students from Asian Student Unions from Midwest universities attended educational workshops, listened to keynote speakers and networked and socialized with other Asian students from the Midwest.
Lara Puno, Leawood senior, said she took this educational opportunity to connect with other Asian students.

Victoria Li, Overland Park junior, and president of the KU Asian American Student Union, said she wanted students to use the information they learned in the conference to improve the Kansas Union.
"We can always get new experience bringing things back to the school that will make AASU become better," Li said.
"Getting one of the speakers can bring awareness to other people and how they are judging minorities," Huang said. "There are still people that just don't understand how our culture works and why we are the way we are."
She also said she wanted the University to become an official member of the MAASU, to have members serve on its board and to someday host the conference in Lawrence.

s can be and cities," that culture e are."
University of Kansas officials are in the process of negotiations to fix a leak in the roof of the Robert J. Dole Institute of Politics.
A bucket catches water from a leaky roof at the Robert I. Dole Institute of Politics yesterday. Buckets have been placed in the northeast corner of Hansen Hall in the Institute to prevent water from leaking onto the exhibits.
The leaking began a few months after the building was dedicated in July, 2003, said Steve Scannell, consultant services manager.
No damage to the artifacts had been reported.
There has been cosmetic damage to the ceiling panels, but it was not very noticeable, said Bill Lacy, Dole Institute director. A temporary receiver was put in place in the northeast corner of Hansen Hall, the main exhibit hall, to catch the leaking.

Scannell said if the leaks were not repaired by the contractors, the next step would be to decide if the architects held any responsibility for the leak.
Lacy did not comment on the cost of the repairs on the advice of University legal counsel.
The University's legal counsel is reviewing those offers to ensure that the proper people are held responsible, he said.
McPherson Contractors, Inc. has offered to make a number of repairs to correct the problem, Scannell said.

MARCIA PETEZ
Hamburg
Continuing Education Association for her "Motivating Moves For People With Parkinson's" exercise program. That's in addition to two other awards from continuing education associations and praise from Parkinson's advocates and doctors.
"Nowhere in our education do we learn to move efficiently until we are injured or have problems," she said.
Parkinson's is a neurodegenerative disease that attacks the
part of the brain responsible for movement and muscle control. People with Parkinson's lose motor control over time, and move stiffly and uncomfortably, and have difficulty forming facial expressions.
Hamburg's program minimizes these problems with exercises that involve the area of the brain responsible for the force and direction of movement.
Exercise is also neuroprotective, preventing cell death in the brain, and perhaps slowing the disease, she said.
Hamburg produced the project on a $70,000 budget. The program was released in March 2004.
Physical therapy has aided people with Parkinson's for years, but Hamburg's work represents an innovative new approach.
Exercise videos for physical therapy are often dull and boring, with a low production value, Hamburg said. For this project, it was important that everything was professional.
That goal of professionalism was given to Jim Jewell, senior producer at KU Continuing Education. The project was the
largest since he started at the school in 1990.
To produce an inviting and educational environment, Jewell shot the program in a Lawrence home and used three different cameras for the varying angles.
After working with Hamburg, Jewell himself sees the importance of her work.
"To know that the video is actually a tool is rewarding," he said.
Music for the program was provided by pianist Robert Abramson of the Juilliard School of Music.
So far more than 5,000 copies of the DVD and VHS have been sold.
The 90-minute DVD features color-coded menus. The first 45 minutes show how to use the program, and the other 45 minutes have exercises and tips for body movement in daily living.
The program is available for $14.95 from the Parkinson's Disease Foundation. All proceeds go towards production of the program, Hamburg said.

'Miss Saigon' to open tonight
BY BAILEY DEREUS
correspondent@kansan.com
KANSAN CORRESPONDENT WRITER
From Los Angeles to Charleston, the cast of "Miss Saigon" has brought a love story to millions. The musical by Alain Boubill and Claude-Michel Schonberg, the writers of "Les Miserables," will be performed tonight and tomorrow in Lawrence.
For Alan Gillespie, who plays Chris, an American Marine in Saigon, visiting small cities is a memorable part of the tour experience.
"I love the big cities, but sometimes there are smaller places that are great and you didn't even know anything about them." he said.
Gillespie and Laurie Cadevida, who plays Kim, a young Vietnamese woman, have visited more than 60 cities in the
United States and Canada this year.
"Kim is a difficult character to play. She is an innocent, naive girl who falls in love for the first time. She is sad, then happy, then yearning for her love, and then protecting her son," she said. "I get off stage, and I am so physically and emotionally drained."
Gillespie is representing a normal, charming, down-to-earth person. He said it is hard to find a normal character in theater, especially in musicals.
"I feel like I am representing a real person and all the armed forces."
For both Gillespie and Cadevida, performing is what they want to do with their lives.
"I have always wanted to do this. I got bit by the performance bug early." Gillespe said,
who played instruments as a child.
Before joining the cast of "Miss Saigon" in 2002, he was in New York City and was doing the show "Jekyll and Hyde." Even on breaks from "Miss Saigon," he is in New York City or Los Angeles, looking for a summer gig. He said he was constantly working and doing auditions.
Cadevida started singing rap and R&B and did a lot of singing with her brother when she was younger. Before joining the "MissSaigon" cast, she was on Ed McMann's "Next Big Star" and auditioned for "American Idol."
"It was great meeting a lot of people from around the country," she said. "It was a lot of fun and a good experience."

DELTA FORCE
Parking ticket amnesty
KINGED
STERNER JONES
- Platform issue: Delta Force will partner with the Parking Department to allow a one-time fine reduction on one parking ticket, meaning a $20 ticket will be reduced to a $5, and a $$ ticket will be free.
- Platform feasibility: Donna Hultine, director of parking services, said that it was not a bad idea and something the parking commission would consider. "In order for this to happen, the parking commission would have to approve it," Hultine said. "I think it is something the commission would consider because everyone can make a mistake once, and we know that."
Enhanced services
+ Platform issue: Students do not have an easily accessible print, copy and mail center on campus. KUnited will work to build a
- Platform feasibility: The Union has handed in a proposal to the University proposing a printing services center in the Atrium in the 3rd level of the Kansas Union, said director of the Kansas Union David Mucci. "The University administration has our proposal and we are just waiting now," Mucci said.
+ Platform issue: Extend hours at the Student Recreation Fitness Center to benefit students.
Platform feasibility: Mary Chappell, director of recreation services, said the center had already considered extending the hours, and was checking to see if they could afford it. "This is something we have had a lot of requests for," Chappell said. "This is something that could get done even if KUnited doesn't get elected."
- **Platform issue:** Open parking spaces at the Kansas Union parking garage at 5 p.m. to increase parking proximity.
- **Platform feasibility:** Hultine said there are a few hurdles that would make it difficult for this to happen. "This has been requested by the Union before and has been shut down twice by the parking commission," Hultine said. "It is hard to limit our potential revenue because we are paying $1 million in bond debt for the garage."
- **Platform issue:** Develop a self-defense program to be available to all students.
- **Platform feasibility:** Chappell said the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center had formed a committee to look into bringing a self-defense program to campus. Chappell said the committee had been looking into it for a while.
NATION
- Platform issue: With a $400,000 surplus, Student Voice will fund wireless Internet in the residence halls.
- Platform feasibility: Allison Rose Lopez, public relations and marketing manager for KU Information Services, in a previous article in the *Kansan* said that adding wireless Internet to the residence halls presents potential problems in cost and feasibility. "It is technically feasible to provide KU Wireless Zones in the lobby areas of student housing facilities;" Rose Lopez said. "It just isn't feasible to provide 100 percent coverage for 4,000 students down every wing of every hall."
THE WORLD
Better campus life
- Platform feasibility: Mucci said that there would have to be some questions that were answered before he would consider bringing Chipotle to the Underground. "We have not pursued Chipotle nor have they pursued us," Mucci said. "We would have to talk to them about square feet and if they are going into the campus market."
* Platform issue: Reform KU on Wheels to make it more efficient and effective.
KU Info independence
DELTA FORCE
♦ Platform issue: Delta Force will return KU Info to the Kansas Union and restore its ability to answer any question, from what time a club is meeting to how many guests are in a gallon
KUNITED
STERNER JONES
♦ Platform feasibility: David Mucci, director of the Kansas Union, said if Senate showed interest in returning KU Info to the Kansas Union, they would do what they could to accommodate them:"There would be a number of questions regarding space in the Union," Mucci said. "However, if that is what Senate wants, we would work with them."
Eco-friendly campus
$\diamond$ Platform issue: Purchase energy from renewable sources for all student funded buildings through a "green tag" system.
$\diamond$ Platform feasibility: There was a proposed $1 fee for green tags that was withdrawn by Senate, Jeff Dunlap, student body vice president, said he didn't think the Student Environmental Board had enough time to look over all the information concerning renewable energy. "This is something that could be funded other ways besides student fees," Dunlap said. "However, in my mind it would seem that there would have to be some augmentation of student fees."
DELTA FORCE
False Fire
Alarm
Freedom
- **Platform feasibility:** Ken Stoner, director of Student Housing, said the fire alarms at some residence halls are already equipped with some type of guard. "We already have some residue that is left if the fire alarm is pulled," Stoner said. "I haven't heard of anything where the ink sprays in all directions."
♦ Platform issue: Delta Force will install fire alarms in University residence halls that are equipped with packets of dye that explode in all directions when alarms are pulled to help deter false alarms.
DELTA FORCE
Fixing State Funding Platform issue: Delta Force will create a comprehensive lobbying campaign that incorporates students, faculty, staff, parents, legislators and other members of our various communities. Source: Delta Force, K1United, and Student Voice

Americans, Catholics want new pope to liberalize policies
WASHINGTON — Most Americans want the next pope to allow priests to marry and women to join the priesthood, a major break from church rules and the judgment of Pope John Paul II, according to an Associated Press poll.
The pontiff was held in high regard by many Americans, many suggesting that John Paul will be remembered as one of the greatest popes.
— Donna Cassata/The Associated Press
"He was admired by people who disagreed so consistently on his views," John C. Green, a professor at the University of Akron in Ohio, said.
The sex abuse scandal that has rocked the church has left many Catholics and other Americans convinced that the next pope must do more about predatory clergy.
Noise
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
The policy change also encourages police officers to take further action if other laws are being broken, such as underage drinking, at the site of a noise disturbance, Ward said.
This part of the change has directly affected one fraternity at the University.
Upon arrival, police officers noticed that the fraternity was selling alcohol without a license. Police confiscated 16 kegs of beer and cited nine fraternity members for operating an "open saloon." according to police reports.
The fraternity has since been expelled from the University because of the incident and its national office has revoked the fraternity's charter.
But police officers aren't targeting parties specifically. Ward said.
Parties are one source of complaints, but loud stereos and bands playing in houses are also a source of a number of complaints, Ward said.
Overall, feedback about the change from police officers and residents of the community has been positive. Landlords have been especially pleased with the effects of the change. Ward said.
"Several landlords have contacted me and said our changes have helped them with enforcement," he said.

Images of socialism, capitalism intersect in Czech Republic
SAM HOPKINS
shopkins@kansan.com
I had the pleasure of traveling to Prague, Czech Republic, this spring break. Prague is a cosmopolitan city of historic buildings, legendary hockey teams and the most Kentucky Fried Chicken restaurants I have ever seen in my life. It has not always been so.
1000
After the Allied defeat of the Nazis in what was then Czechoslovakia in 1945, the American and Soviet governments engaged in a battle of politicized goodwill gestures, money and fear to win over the locals.
Prague's Museum of Communism details the rise and fall of Marxism in Czechoslovakia, within half a floor of space next to a casino and above a McDonald's. The irony is evident as pictures of rejoicing roulette players and Big Macs flank Joseph Stalin, an icon of forced equality whose antithesis was American avarice.
I toured the exhibition: a mockup of a Czechoslovakian schoolroom complete with a Russian lesson on the board; posters exhorting factory workers to higher productivity; and videos of the massive demonstrations in 1989 that took place just outside the museum where I stood, bringing Prague's communist era to a close. Then I went to find the men's room.
To their great benefit, women do not know what urinal cakes smell like. I will try to explain here, and please endure my description for the sake of the metaphor that follows.
If you took an Altoid mint the size of a hockey puck, dunked it in chlorine bleach, and then urinated on it, you could approximate the smell of what is unfortunately called a urinal cake. I do not know if Prague had this chemical technology before 1989, but the whiff I got in 2005 was overpowering.
Now, the metaphor: Human urine does not carry a pleasant aromas but urinal cakes do no more than add a different, slightly toxic odor, which itself is nauseating.
I stepped out of the bathroom hoping that I would be able to keep my lunch down. Again, the juxtaposition of McDonald's and the casino next
to the socialist imagery I had just seen was unavoidable.
The signs pointed in different directions, giving the visitor a choice of venue: Either a glance at the gloomy past or immersion in the glitzy present. The Czech and Slovak masses had made their own decision, and outside old men who might have been members of the secret police in a former life begged for money on the busy pedestrian mall among all the shoppers and moneychangers. I'm lovin' it!
The past is often foul compared to a rosy-smelling future. The Soviets foresaw a world of abundance without poverty, but they stifled freedom in their drive to achieve that goal. Capitalism, for its part, has the lamentable tendency of amplifying individual desire to the detriment of universal need. The American Dream is a nightmare for many.
We should not be content to mask one putid smell with another until the fresh becomes rotten and we start all over again. Flush the toilet and think hard about the source of the problems and possible remedies, and then think again about the consequences of those remedies.
The Cold War period affected the American psyche to the extent that the very word "communism" can still stir deep patriotic fear and rage. The Soviet-Czechoslovakian propaganda that I saw casts a similarly evil image of capitalism.
The truth is that Marxism, Leninism and Stalinism — just like American democracy — is an attempt to eradicate humanity's stinky leavings, but in the end it left the mess and created a new stench. Americans are free to write cheeky opinion columns, but many go to bed hungry each night.
There is an ideological and practical balance somewhere between Wal-Mart and Stalin's Five-Year Plans, and both our children and their noses will thank us iff we work harder to find it.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Supreme Court ignored its ownrole, let Schiavodie without true justice
"Equal Justice Under Law." How ironic that the Supreme Court, whose building boasts these famous words, would deny Terri Schiavo her constitutional right to life, her freedom of religion by not permitting her to be given last rites, and allow her to be starved to death.
As she took her last breath — yes, she could breathe on her own — Thursday morning, I was reminded of my recent trip to Washington, D.C., to participate in the March for Life, where I witnessed Terri's parents asking the crowd for support in their fight. I was appalled that our government would allow this. I also find it quite suspicious that her husband, Michael Schiavo — who for the record, already has a fiancée and two children — stands to gain Terri's inheritance following her death.
It is ridiculous and disgraceful that a handful of judges determined the fate of this woman's life. As it stands, there are absolutely no checks and balances on the judicial system. When the legislative and executive branches intervened, a judge accused them of acting "in a manner at odds with our Constitution."
It seems to me that by denying Terri her basic constitutional freedoms, our judicial system is acting in a manner at odds with the Constitution.
Also look to our Pledge of Allegiance, which concludes "with liberty and justice for all." Where was the justice for Terri and her family?

Ten Commandments don't represent the legal framework in United States
In Ray Wittlinger's column "Ten Commandments should unite, not divide Americans." he tells us that the presence of these commandments near a government institution is "offensive only if you let it be."
Really? I didn't know that we have a choice as to what offends us.
The bottom-line is that these religious displays are offensive to non-believers and to others that do not identify with the Judeo-Christian system.
Listen up homosexuals: Being called a "fag" and experiencing discrimination are only offensive if you let them be.
While Wittlinger's intentions seem to be sincere, it is wistfully absurd and offensive to think that, of all the moral codes available, we should unite under the one that just so happens to be in line with the majority's religious preference and that includes very few of "our country's most fundamental laws."
They are a source of alienation and a blatant violation of the First Amendment.
In order for people of all creeds to unite, we must do so under rules that revolve solely around the good of humanity instead of keeping days "holy" or worshiping the "correct" ghosts.
In fact, only three of these 10 are actually part of our laws.

GUEST COMMENTARY
John Paul II took papacy in right direction in 26 years
On Easter Sunday, my family and I spent the morning with thousands of others in Rome, at Mass in St. Peter's Square. My husband, Wayne, noticed the red banner under Pope John Paul's apartment window.

Wayne said the pope would probably give the final blessing. He was right.
Although the pope's deteriorating health prevented him from reading the blessing, it was still spiritually moving to see him in the window, making the sign of the cross. The experience brought tears to my eyes and uplifted the spirits of all those around us. A group of school
around us. A group of school children nearby started chanting "Il Papa, Il Papa." Italian for "pope."
I am teaching for the School of Journalism in Italy this semester, through the Consortium of Universities for International Studies. This has been an incredible experience made more special by the opportunity to witness Pope John Paul II's final public appearance.

This made it difficult for me, a news junkie, to figure out what was going on. When I heard Pope John Paul II had finally passed away, the news came via my cell phone, from my brother in Kansas City.
Although John Paul II's time as pope has passed, I believe all of us, especially college students, can still learn a great deal from his life, his example and his words.

Students to teach pow wow etiquette
Students from First Nations Student Association are holding a "Pow Wow Etiquette" session 7:30 tonight at the Multicultural Resource Center.
Photo illustration by Courtney Kuhlen
They want to have this informative session before next Saturday's Pow Wow that will be kicked off by a traditional dance dance at 2 p.m.
The group welcomes anyone to come to tonight's session, learn about the dances and ask any questions.
Mekko Tyner, Tulsa, Okla. third-year law student, said he wanted people to find out what takes place and what they can expect.
Tyner also added that a gourd dance is a dance to honor veterans of the Kiowa tribe in Oklahoma.
"We tried to act like this was going to be our first time at a pow wow," he said.
This is the second time that the group has held an etiquette session.
Olivia Standingbear, Oklahoma senior, said they started the etiquette sessions to get more people to attend.
"People think they can't go because they're not Native American," she said.
Only 12 people attended last years etiquette session. This year both Tyner and StandingBear hope that better planning and experience with non-members will bring out a bigger crowd.
"We just kind of got the idea," Tyner said. "We didn't know where to start, and we didn't know what people knew and what people didn't know."
The extra planning also is a result of the group holding its Big 12 Leadership Conference at the University during the week of the pow wow.
The First Nations Student Association will also use the etiquette class as a training session for its Big 12 volunteers. Volunteers are still needed.

BUSINESS
Ban decreases smoking, revenues
Owners hesitate to reveal losses from smoking ban
By ADAM LAND
aland@kansan.com
KANSAST WRITER
Many Lawrence bar owners are saying business revenue and the smoking ban seem to go hand-in-hand. But they are not saying how much the ban is costing them in actual dollars.
Owners and managers are capable of divulging the percentage of business they've lost or gained due to the ban, but they are hesitant to reveal their profits. The precaution may arise from a fear of competition.
"You really don't want your competition to know what you're spending," said Connie Roach, manager of the Hereford House, 4931 W. Sixth St. "It's just a good business practice."
Since the ordinance has been in effect, Lawrence bar owners said their losses ranged from six to 50 percent, depending on the bar.
That lost cash means some bars are not refilling vacant positions in their establishments.
"We had two employees that quit, and we couldn't replace them," said Jerry Neverve, owner of the Red Lyon Tavern, 944 Massachusetts St. "I just don't need to rehire these positions."
Evening shifts at the Hereford House have gotten thinner as well, Roach said. Employees on shifts that were once busy are often cut, she said.
Even some franchised businesses are seeing a dip in the profits.
"We have seen a slight drop in revenue since the ban," said Dan Jones, manager of Chill's Grill & Bar, 2319 Iowa St.
Iones said he could not
disclose specific information on funds due to company policy.
Although not bound by company policy, local bar owners often do not want to disclose their private finance numbers either. They have a myriad of methods to avoid disclosing financial figures, including hiding from competition, franchise constraints, personal privacy
and concern for the establishment's image.
Deciding to disclose private business finances is at the discretion of the owner or manager.
"I don't really want to give out my personal information." Neverve said. "It is not really anyone else's business."
Regardless of how the business is actually doing, the
public may see any loss as a bad omen for the establishment, Roach said. Businesses have to protect their image so people will keep coming in, she said.
"We really just don't want people thinking, 'This business is going down the toilet,'" she said.

Some owners patrons enjoy results of being out of smoke
By TY BEAVER
tbeaver@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Nearly a year has passed since the Lawrence City Commission extinguished indoor public smoking.
While the ban's effects on business is still debated, several Lawrence bar employees and patrons are happy to be out of the haze.
Nick Atachity said he had smoked less since the ban went into effect.
Despite the restriction, the Overland Park junior said the ban was a good idea.
"Business owners thought it would hurt them, but people are coming back," he said.
Anne Carty, Lawrence graduate student, said she was not so sure the ban had affected smoking habits.
Carty said she cut back on smoking because of her own health concerns, not the ban.
People adapt to the situation as needed, and bars building smoking porches are one of those adaptations, Carty said.
Lucas Parde said he hadn't noticed any decrease in business on the bar's busiest days. Parde, a bartender at Louise's Bar Downtown. 1009 Massachusetts, said he hadn't noticed any decreased smoking from customers out front or on the smoking porch.
"If people want to smoke, they'll change their venue so they can," she said.
Although he smokes more in cities where it is allowed, Parde said he cut back on his smoking in Lawrence. He also said he liked not smelling like smoke after work.

Galindo announces transfer
BY MIRANDA LENNING
mlenning@kansan.com
KANSAN SENIOR SPORTSWRIITER
It's official. Alex Galindo will not play for the Kansas Jayhawks next season.
Kansas coach Bill Self announced yesterday that the freshman forward will transfer from the University at the end of the semester.
Galindo, a Newark, N.J., native, said there were no unfriendly feelings between himself and the Kansas basketball program. He said he had

he would look at schools closer
to his family.
"I feel I need a change of scenery to get closer to home," Galindo said.
NCAA rules will force Galindo to sit out his sophomore season at his transfer university. Although he said he didn't know where he would transfer, he said he would use next season as an opportunity to work on his game.
"I need a redshirt year to get stronger and to develop my game," Galindo said. "At this time my mind is still open to where I will go, but hopefully it will be resolved in the next few weeks."
The 6-foot-7 forward averaged 4.3 points and 1.7 rebounds per game this season in 10.4 minutes of play per game. Galindo was plagued
with injuries early in the season. He missed last summer with an injured wrist and suffered a groin injury early in the season. The pulled groin sidelined him from important pre- and early-season workouts. The time out hindered Galindo's ability to become familiar with the plays and get comfortable in the system, Self said.
"We enjoyed Alex this past year," Self said. "Losing his summer to a broken wrist and over a month of preseason workouts due to a pulled groin, certainly slowed his development."
The highlights of Galindo's career came in back-to-back games against Georgia Tech on Jan. 1 and Texas A&M Jan. 5. Against the Yellow Jackets, Galindo hit a game-altering shot

in overtime to pull Kansas within one. The Jayhawks went on to win that game 70-68.
In Kansas' 65-60 victory over
the Aggies he made the game winning three-point shot with less than a minute to play.
"I enjoyed my freshman year," Galindo said. "It had its ups and downs, but overall it was a learning experience. I wish Kansas and its fans nothing but the best."
A true three-position player, Galindo played much of the season at the four position for the Jayhawks. Due to the depth at the guard position, Self said Galindo's best opportunity to play was at the four.
Galindo's exit opens a scholarship for the Jayhawks. Three recruits — Mario Chalmers, Micah Downs and Julian Wright
Next year, Galindo would have competed with incoming freshmen Micah Downs and Julian Wright for playing time.
and the addition of junior college transfer Roderick Stewart at the end of the fall semester fill the scholarships opened by seniors' graduations.
Self continued to recruit players despite having a full roster. DeAndre Thomas, a 6-foot-8, 270 pound senior forward from Westinghouse High School in Chicago, is expected to visit Kansas this month.
▼ PROFILE
Self announced yesterday however, that he would offer the scholarship to junior walk-on Christian Moody, who started 26 games for the lavahawks.
"With Alex's departure, it does allow us to provide Christian Moody a scholarship for the upcoming year, which he richly deserves," Self said.

Jeremy Mims has had one of the best seasons of any Kansas runner.
Mims, in his fourth year at Kansas, ran past Jim Ryun's longstanding 800-meter run record of 1:47.19 with a time 1:47.04, which reset the Big 12 record of 1:45.88. In February's Big 12 Championship his time of 1:49.46 was good for second place. Mims ran 1:49.46. He then finished seventh in the 800 at the National Indoor Championships with a time of 1:48.28.
But looking back at Mim's early high school track disappointments, a record-breaking college athletic career seemed improbable.
Mims, a senior, remembers his early days in competition in Iowa City.
"My freshman year I was the worst runner of all time," he said. "I was so afraid of cross country, I didn't show up to practice the first day. I was slower than slow."
But he finished faster and faster as time wore on. He finally beat two minutes in the 800 his junior year. He said his pride in the race counted more than his record time.
COLUMBIA
"That meant a lot because I did it against one of my teammates who talked way to much," Mims said. "He was mad. Not just because I beat him, but I also beat two minutes and he hadn't."
Mims started getting attention from smaller state schools his senior year, but he said he knew much sooner of his potential.
"My junior year was when I wanted to run at a college level," Mims said. "My times were getting close to the same times at some smaller colleges."
"After state, Nebraska contacted me. I didn't want to go to Iowa, because it would be too close to home," Mims said. "It was a big deal to get out of Iowa."
After the state competition his senior year, Mims and his 200x200x400x800-meter medley team in their first attempt beat the state record in the race. They were invited to Raleigh, N.C., to compete nationally in the same event. They set the national record and finished first in the sprint medley. That's when Kansas coach Stanley Redwine called.
Staying in Iowa wasn't an option.
"It was between Kansas and Nebraska. Kansas had great facilities," Mims said. "But it was because of Redwine. I knew he could help me on the

Jeremy Mims, a senior middle-distance runner specializing in the 800-meter race, looks forward to the indoor track season, which will be his last at the University. Mims won first place in the Kansas Relays last year with a season-best time of 1:50.82. This year he broke the Big 12 Conference record — and his personal record — with a time of 1:47.04. He placed second at the Big 12 Championship and seventh at the National Indoor Championships. The track and field team's next meet is the Texas Relays April 6-9. The Kansas Relays will be held April 21-23 at Memorial Stadium.
NCAA TOURNAMENT
Roy wins NCAA title
BY EDDIE PELLS THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ST. LOUIS — Of course, there was no way it was going to be easy. North Carolina did it, though, and now it's time to stop asking Roy Williams that dogone question.
Sean May had 26 points, and the Tar Heels didn't allow a basket over the final, excruciating 2:30 last night to defeat Illinois 75-70, a win that finally gave Williams, the 17-year coaching veteran, the national championship that was missing from his otherwise stellar resume.
"I'm speechless," Williams said. "I usually talk my rear end off, but right now I'm speechless."
Freshman Marvin Williams had a tip-in with 1:26 left; Raymond Felton made three free throws down the stretch; and the Tar Heels (33-4) won their first title since 1993, back when Dean Smith was coaching and Williams was at Kansas, in the middle of his Final Four futility.
"He is the greatest coach," Felton said. "If he retired tomorrow, I would vote for him for the Hall of Fame. He told us he would bring us a championship, and we did it as a team."
Led by May's 10-for-11 shooting, Carolina took a 65-55 lead with 8:51 left, and it looked like Williams would win his 41st tournament game, and first championship, going away. But Illinois (37-2) never quit.
When it was over — after Felton had made his last two free throws, after May had cradled his 10th and final rebound — Williams took off his glasses and started looking for people to hug.
Forward Jack Ingram hit a pair of outside jumpers and Dee Brown scored six points as part of a 10-0 run that tied the game at 65 with 5 1/2 minutes left to set up a fantastic finish.
A few moments later, he was crying, much like he has at the end of every season — though no ending has been as sweet as this one.
"I'm just so happy for myself,
my family," Williams said.

Baseball coach to converse with students during lunch
Kansas baseball coach Ritch Price will hang out in the Kansas Union this afternoon.
Initiated by the Kansas Marketing Department, Price, following what other Kansas coaches have done in the past, Price will get together with students to talk about Kansas baseball, coaching or just the national pastime itself.
Irisha Gresnick, Kansas Union Programs adviser, said the events gave coaches a chance to interact with the students on an individual basis.
Free pizza and pop will be provided for those who attend the 12:30 session by the Union Programs.
Price will be in the Hawk's Nest on the first floor of the Kansas Union to talk with any and all students, staff and the Lawrence community.

Ferrari fails to get top spots in Sunday's Formula One race
SAKHIR, Bahrain — For only the second time this century, Ferrari went scoreless in a Formula One race when neither of its cars finished among the top eight at the Bahrain Grand Prix on Sunday
Michael Schumacher didn't finish for the first time since 2001 because of a mechanical failure, and Rubens Barrichello was ninth after a forgetful weekend that included two gearbox changes, an engine change and a car that stopped just after qualifying 15th.
Meanwhile, Fernando Alonso is looking impressive and Renault is dominating like the old Ferraris, taking their third straight race of the young season.
Alonso led virtually from start to finish after winning the pole position for the second consecutive race. It was his third career victory, and the Spaniard leads the drivers' standings with two victories and a third this season.
WOMEN'S NCAA TOURNAMENT
Double-double possible for coach
BY TOM WITHERS
INDIANAPOLIS — Back in Tickfaw, La., there's a street named after the little girl with big dreams. Suitably, it's called Kim Mulkey Drive.
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Avenue or Boulevard just wouldn't have made sense.
Not for the hometown kid who never missed a school day in 12 years.
Only a drive would befit the tomboy who played Little League baseball against boys; the valedictorian who led her high school to four straight state titles, her college to two NCAA championships and won an Olympic gold medal.
Over in Hammond, La., where she went to school, there's a monument outside City Hall in her honor.
Tonight, Mulkey-Robertson, who in less than five years has transformed the Lady Bears from Big 12 doormats into national contenders, has a chance to pull off an unprecedented double-double.
Baylor University may have one for Kim Mulkey-Robertson one day, too.
A win over Michigan State would make her the first women's coach to win a championship as a player and coach.
First. Mulkey-Robertson has
"She's won a whole bunch," Baylor guard Chelsea Whitaker said. "I think one of her first championships was like when I was born, so i kind of tease her about that. But she was one of the pioneers of this game."
Long before she made Baylor the warm-and-fuzzy success story of this year's tournament, the 42-year-old Mulkey-Robertson had already made a name for herself in women's college basketball.
never settled for second-best in anything.
As Louisiana Tech's fiery 5-foot-4 point guard, she led the Lady Techsters to a 130-6 record and back-to-back NCAA titles.
It was at Louisiana Tech, playing under the legendary Leon Barmore, where the coaching bug bit. After graduating with honors, she stayed for another 15 years as an assistant before going to Baylor.
In 2000, she inherited a program that went 7-20 the previous season and had little reason to hope the future would be any brighter. But while others forecasted gloom, Mulkey-Robertson envisioned success.
She led the Lady Bears to a 21-9 record her first season, vaulting Baylor from 12th in the powerful Big 12 to sixth and earning the
But now, the mother of two known for her fashion smarts and for occasionally joining her players in drills has Baylor one victory away from winning it all.
school its first NCAA berth. Last season, a trip to the round of 16 ended with a controversial loss to Tennessee.
Ask her five starters to describe Mulkey-Robertson in one word and a portrait quickly emerges.
"Tenacious," Steffanie Blackmon said. "Intense," Chameka Scott said. "Intense," Abiola Wabara said. "Intense," Sophia Young said.
Mulkey-Robertson traces her desire to her early childhood — even before that. She was never the biggest or the fastest or the prettiest, but she had an inner strength and work ethic that always gave her a chance.
"Intense," Whitaker said, who had learned to feed off her coach's fervor. "It drives us a lot, because if it doesn't drive us then we'll be sitting next to her."
On the sideline during a game, Multey-Roberston is in perpetual motion. One second, she's stalking officials. The next, she's demanding defense from her team.
"I think you're born with it," she said. "I was brought up in a family of middle income, self-employed parents that provided for their children,
As a child raised in the south during the 1960s, she witnessed the civil rights struggle, a time that had an effect in shaping the woman she is today.
did not spoil them and were very proud of them."
Mulkey-Robertson credits her parents' choice to have her attend an integrated school in developing her social skills and tolerance.
"It was absolutely the greatest decision they ever made for me," she said.
Mulkey-Robertson has never failed at anything. With some of her best years still ahead, she has already been inducted into six different Halls of Fame and attained a lifetime worth of successes.
These days, that's how Baylor fans feel about her arrival.
Nothing, though, warms her more than sharing them. On Sunday night, with her children at her side, Mulkey-Robertson watched as Baylor fans, still recovering from the tragic shooting death of a men's player two years ago, celebrated an improbable comeback win over LSU in the semifinals.
"That's the most enjoyable moment for me, just to watch those people experience something for the first time," she said. "That brings a smile to my face."
WOMEN'S NCAA TOURNAMENT
Balance key for Spartan success
BY MICHAEL MAROT THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
The Associated Press
INDIANAPOLIS — Michigan State will take its gang of five over a couple of blue-chip players any day.
After all, this season has proven the Spartans can win in unconventional ways — without All-Americans, without dominant inside players, even defeating the nation's most established women's programs by rallying from seemingly impossible deficits.
At Michigan State, it's all about teamwork.
"You see teams with one or two All-Americans and that team loses," Kristin Haynie said. "That's what makes this team great. If someone has a bad game, someone else can step up."
"Y
Adhering to coach Joanne P. McCallie's deep-rooted philosophy is what has led the Spartans out of their mediocre past and onto the brink of their first national title. Michigan State (33-3) faces Baylor (32-3) tonight in a matchup of first-time finalists.
As usual, the Spartans have reached the title game with a slightly different script.
McCallie seemingly has all the pieces in place.
ou see teams with one or two AllAmericans, and that teams loses. That's what makes this team great. If someone has a bad game, someone else can step it up."
"We're not a bunch of all-stars," center Kelli Rohrig said. "But we have so many great players, I think we just complement each other so well."
While Baylor relies primarily on its All-America tandem of Sophia Young and Steffanie Blackmon, Michigan State beats opponents with balance.
Kristin Haynie Michigan State basketball player
Four starters average double figures although none scores more than 15 points per game. Two other players are scoring nearly eight points per game. It's Basketball 101 at East Lansing, Mich.
Haynie is the fleet point guard
and the school's career record-holder for steals (341). She was named most outstanding player of the Kansas City Region and the Big Ten tournament, and she averages 10.6 points and 6.8 rebounds.
Junior guard Lindsay Bowen is Michigan State's career leader with 224 3-pointers. She scores 13.6 points and delivered the outlet pass Sunday that sealed the Spartans 68-64 semifinal victory over Tennessee.
Forward Liz Shimek ranks 10th in Spartans history in scoring, averages 15.0 points and 9.2 rebounds.
Roehrig provides inside power and has teamed with Haynie to win more games (91) than any other senior class. Roehrig averages 13.5 points and 7.5 rebounds, and scored the go-ahead basket with 35 seconds left against Tennessee.
While sophomore guard Victoria Lucas-Perry is the fifth wheel, scoring just 7.4 points, it was her seven straight points that saved the Spartans in their closing rally against Tennessee.
But in an era where individuality is revered, success has helped McCallie make simpler points.
"That's the beauty of having such a balanced team."
"You can't just focus on one or two players because two or three others will beat you," Bowen said.
After finishing ninth in the Big Ten in each of her first two seasons at Michigan State, the Spartans improved to fourth in 2002-03 and 2003-04, then shared the regular-season title this season before winning their first conference tournament.
Players believe the key to this year's tournament run began last summer when the Spartans took a team camping trip to Shimek's grandparents' farm in northern Michigan.
"During that 3 1/2-hour ride to her farm, we bonded," Haynie said. "We had a great time, and I think that's what started the chemistry on this team."
When they returned, Michigan State had a new philosophy.
"It put things into perspective and showed us how lucky everyone is on our team," Roehrig said.
Opponents with better players and stronger reputations also appreciated Michigan State's concept. Tennessee coach Pat Summit praised the Spartans for their composure Sunday night, and Baylor players know they too will be facing a different kind of opponent Tuesday.
"If you scout those players you don't leave a gym and go, wow, they leap out of the gym," Baylor coach Kim Mulkey-Robertson said. "But you leave a gym and go, I would like to have two players like that on my team. They know how to win."
The Spartans couldn't ask for any better compliment.
"You see, in the guys' games, a lot of guys want to go one-on-one," Bowen said. "In girls' games, it really is team ball — and this team is willing to do whatever it takes to win."
Poll shows fans upset with players' salaries
BASEBALL
WASHINGTON — For all the talk about steroids, as baseball begins its new season more Americans think players' high salaries are the sport's biggest problem, according to an Associated Press-AOL poll released yesterday.
The average major leaguer's salary was $2.3 million last year. While that was a slight decline from the previous year, it's twice what it was 10 years ago.
"Baseball players definitely get overpaid," said Cynthia Walker, a pharmacist from Seattle who sees a link with steroid use. "It gives them a competitive edge to be better and they're in better position to ask for big salaries."
Salaries were named as baseball's "biggest problem" by 33 percent of those surveyed, followed by steroids at 27 percent and the cost of going to a game at 22 percent, according to the telephone poll done for the AP and AOL Sports by Iosos-Public Affairs.
"The economics of baseball are the big problem," said Fay Vincent, former baseball commissioner. "The big clubs make a lot of money and the little clubs don't."
Baseball has no cap on team salaries and its owners don't pool money from local television revenues.
Seventy percent said they didn't think a player found to have used steroids or other performanceenhancing drugs should be elected to the Hall of Fame.
About 40 percent of those surveyed described themselves as baseball fans, down from more than six in 10 at the height of the home run chase in 1998 between Mark McGwire of the St. Louis Cardinals and Sammy Sosa of the Chicago Cubs.

Luther Head led Illinois with 21 points. He had a wide-open look at a three-point shot that would have tied the game with 17 seconds left, but it bounded off and coach Bruce Weber's magical ride with the Illini wound up one win short of the real fairy tale ending he hoped for.
His opponent, Williams, left Kansas to take over the Tar Heels two years ago, after the program Dean Smith built had faltered and fallen to 8-20. Williams took a ton of heat for leaving Kansas after losing in the title game in 2003 - his fourth close call at the Final Four.
Rick McKee/The Associated Press
He defended the move, saying coming back to his alma mater had always been his dream. Then, this week, he dealt with a more familiar question: Did he need to win a title to call his career a success?
He told the story of Smith insisting he was no better a coach after he finally won one in 1982, but Williams conceded that answering that "same doggone question" did get a little annoying at times.

"For coach to be able to say that the first team to get him a championship was the 2005 team is an honor." May said. "He'll win a few more before he done."
After May made a short shot with 11:22 left in the first half for an 18-17 lead, Carolina never trailed again — but this game never really got comfortable.

But the Illini could never take a lead. And after Head hit a 3-pointer with 2:40 left, Deron Williams missed on an open look, Felton stepped in front of a bad pass by Head, then Head missed the potential game-tying shot at the end. In all, the Illini missed five three-point shots down the stretch, part of a night in which they shot 12-for-40 from long range and just 38 percent overall.
Deron Williams scored 17 and Brown had 12 for the Illini, but they needed a combined 39 shots to get there — and, in the end, the 27-for-70 shooting night just couldn't be overcome.
Felton finished with 17 points and seven assists, and Rashad McCants had 14 for the Tar Heels, all in the first half.
Felton, McCants and Jawad Williams each hit three-point shots during the stretch. More significantly, though, was the way the Tar Heels dominated on defense.
Head squirmed open for a twisting shot from point blank on the baseline, but it missed. Roger Powell Jr. rebounded but couldn't get the ball to the rim - rejected twice by North Carolina's inside players.
Carolina really had both.
In the end, the Tar Heels won the matchup that was billed as Team vs. Talent — the Tar Heels with the talent and the Illini with the team. It turned out

track as well as off it. I knew he could help me as a person."
Mims career has been turbulent at times. He's attributed such to setting goals too high at times. But in the midst of all the meets in four years, one stands out, he said.
"My race at regional finals sophomore year," Mims said. "It was the first time I made NCAA's."
As his last semester of track eligibility winds down, Mims said he would concentrate on the present, not the future.
"At the time, knowing I was going to go was the best thing I ever felt," he said. "All my work paid off."
"I'm really focused on this outdoor season. I'm getting antsy, and I'm ready to race," Mims said. "Next year will take care of itself."
His senior year has taken on a new meaning, he said. Much more lenient than his early years, this senior has settled down. The movie buff, who recently discovered "The Incredibles," spends most of his off time with his girlfriend.
This senior middle distance runner, once a junior varsity underachiever, has bloomed into one of the Jayhawks' leaders. As he competes in his last outdoor season, he doesn't know where his path will lead him. But one thing is sure: He'll get there fast.

Royals destroyed at Tigers' opener
DETROIT — Dmitri Young got to the top step of the dugout, pivoted and tipped his helmet to a roaring crowd after becoming just the third player to hit three homers on opening day.
"I've had a curtain call, but nothing like that," Young said. "That was incredible."
Young went 4-for-4 and matched a career high with five RBI, and Jeremy Bonderman won as the youngest opening-day starter since 1986 to lead the Detroit Tigers over the Kansas City Royals 11-2 yesterday.
Two years after losing an AL-record 119 games, the Tigers backed up what Young said last month when he boldly proclaimed: "We're the Tigers — not the kittens." It was, however, just the first of 162 games, and the victory came against a team expected to be among baseball's worst.
Detroit's performance created a frenzied atmosphere before a Comerica Park-record crowd of 44,105 on a sunny day with temperatures in the 60s.
"I don't know if I could've written a better script," Tigers manager Alan Trammell said.
Young's home run in the second inning put Detroit ahead 1-0. He hit a two-run homer in the third for a 5-1 lead and added another two-run shot in the eighth. The designated hitter also had a single and was hit by a pitch.
"That was a great day." Kansas City manager Tony Pena said. "Good for him. Bad for us."
Toronto's George Bell hit three homers against the Royals on opening day in 1988 and Tuffy Rhodes of the Chicago Cubs had three against the New York Mets in 1994. Those two games also were played on April 4.

Golfer garners national recognition
BY TIM HALL
hall@kansan.com
KANSAN SPORTWRITER
Kansas senior golfer Kevin Ward led his team to a first place finish at the Stevinson Ranch Intercollegiate on March 22 and a second place finish at the 59th Western Intercollegiate on March 29.
Last Friday. Ward received
PETER MORRIS
some national recognition for his contribution, when Golf World magazine named him the College Player of the Week
Ward
The voting for the award
took place during the Jayhawk's visit to Stevinson, Calif. Ward not only won the Stevinson Intercollegiate by six strokes over Ben Kern from Kansas State, he led Kansas to a 20-stroke victory over Kansas State and Nebraska.
Ward's second-round play was flawless, as he made eight birdies and no boges. Through 15 holes, Ward was eight under par, and his score could have been even lower if he had connected on any of three makeable birdie putts.
Ward played some of the best golf of his career during the two-day tournament, hitting a three-round 8-under-par 208. He shot a 4-under-par 68 in the opening round, and went on to shoot a career-best 8-under 64 in the second round.
Even though Ward received the national honor last week, he has remained humble.
"This award is really going to help with my confidence and also the team's confidence," Ward said. "The team deserves this award as much as I do because they really helped my

thing you want from a player, whether it's in the work-out room, at practice or on the golf course."

cause — winning by 20 strokes.
I give them all the credit.
Ward has been a team leader for the Jayhawks the past two seasons.
Coach Ross Randall nominated Kevin Ward for the honor after his play at Stevinson.
"He really has been our leader all year," Randall said. "He is everything you want from a player, whether it's in the work out room, at practice or on the golf course."
During his career at Kansas, Ward has won three individual tournament titles, and has recorded 10 top-10 finishes. Ward entered the 2004-2005 golf season with a 75.59 career stroke average. All season long he has been improving upon that number. He has the lowest season-stoke average of his career: 71.37.
With a national player of the week award under his belt, Ward has all the confidence he needs to finish the season.
"I'm excited about getting this award," Ward said. "But I'm even more excited about playing and finishing the season out."
Kevin Ward and the Jayhawks will head to Holly Springs, N.C., to play in the Courtyard by Marriot Intercollegiate on April 8.

Kansas votes yes
Only Douglas County against marriage ban
BY JASON SHAAD
jshaad@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Kansas became the 18th state to pass a constitutional amendment prohibiting same-sex marriage last night, according to unofficial vote tallies. While about 70 percent of the state voted to pass the amendment, more than 60 percent in Douglas County voted against it.
Daniel Rea, activism chair for KU Queers and Allies, said he expected the amendment would pass. The St. Louis freshman said expecting people to accept same-sex marriage was too big of an ideo too soon.
"You can't push for everything," Rae said. "You need to make the small changes first."
Although he expected the results, Rea said he felt depressed and frustrated.
"You feel lonely and isolated to live in a state where the majority of people who surround you disagree with your way of life."
VOTING RESULTS
Rea said that living in an area where people voted against the amendment added to his sense of security.
"It says a lot about the younger generation being ready for a change." Rea said.
Lee Bickerstaff, Emporia senior, said he expected Douglas County to vote against the amendment while the rest of the state voted to pass it. He said he voted in favor of the amendment because it could benefit Kansas culture.
"I believe homosexual unions are outside of God's design," Bickerstaff said. "It's a step in the right direction to promote people seeking a better culture."
Kansas will be the 18th state to pass a state constitutional amendment prohibiting same-sex marriage. Results will not be final until Friday after provisional ballots have been counted. The initial results are:

CAMPUS
School may expand
Pharmacy's enrollment more than twice what Malott designed for
BY TY BEAVER
tbeaver@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
The University of Kansas School of Pharmacy Building Committee plans to build a new building on West Campus to bring-all its students and faculty under one roof. The school is mostly housed in Malott Hall, which was built to accommodate about 250 students. With more than 600 students now enrolled in the school, a bigger and more up-to-date building is necessary.
A committee of faculty and
students with the school are working together to find funding for a new pharmacy building on West Campus within the next five years.
"We're trying to adapt to rooms built for an old program and it's just not working," Kenneth Audus, dean of pharmacy, said.
In 1981, the school took up residence in the newest wing of Malott.
A previous five-year program was changed to a six-year doctorate program, and the school has increased research activity.
Audus said the growth has done much for the school's prestige and research, but has wreaked havoc on resources. Lab space is inefficient and faculty and resources are divided

CAMPUS SAFETY
Students react to parking lot crime
Suspect in residence hall battery case at large
BY ERIC SORRENTINO
esorrentino@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
A KU student was involved in a case of battery in Lot 112 near Oliver Hall last Monday. Since then, residents have made a conscious effort to keep parking lots safe.
People are being more cautious now because of incidents such as that one. Curry Curtis, Olathe freshman, said Oliver put up composite sketches of the suspect in the battery on elevators, bathrooms and front doors. The suspect hit a 19-year-old female under her right eye and then fled toward 19th Street. Police
have not identified the subject and-are still investigating the case.
"It's scary." Curtis said. "It made me think more about what I'm doing."
Curtis said she worked late as a server and did not think too much about safety issues before the incident.
SEE CRIME ON PAGE 8A
She said her mother, along with two police officers she knew through mutual friends, taught her to tightly hold her keys in her fingers when she walked to her car at night. In the event of an attack, one could stab the attacker with the keys and open the car door to get away immediately, she said.
Spray it, don't say it
Amy Connolly, Lawrence freshman, adds the word "feminazi" to the Wall of Hate outside Stauffer-Flint Hall yesterday afternoon. The Multicultural Resource Center erected the wall to allow students to spray paint all the racial and hateful slurs that had touched them. The wall will be knocked down today at noon.

After singing songs, including "It is Well with My Soul." Gianna Jessen spoke last night about surviving abortion. Jessen said her mother attempted to abort her as a 7-month-old fetus. Jessen praised President Bush, said she was unashamed to be a Christian and spoke about her anti-abortion stance.

The story of her life
Jessen talks to crowd about abortion, hot-button issues
BY NATE KARLIN
nkarlin@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Gianna Jessen didn't pull any punches last night.
"I'm not one to shy away from controversy so I'll start right off the bat." Jessen said. "They starved Terri Schiavo, she was a vegetable."
But Jessen survived. Because she lost oxygen to the brain during the procedure, Jessen has cerebral palsy.
Jessen said her biological mother attempted to abort her 28 years ago today when she was 7 1/2 months pregnant.
"They said the same thing about me, that I would be a vegetable," she said.
She shared her story as she has for the last 14 years with about 700 students and Lawrence residents last night at the Kansas Union Ballroom.
Jessen's appearance was the main event of the Stand Up for LIFE week sponsored by KU Students for LIFE.
Calling her cerebral palsy a gift, Jessen said Americans need to stop treating people with disabilities as victims.
She said Americans needed to crave life more than death.
"I'm just made for a fight," she said. "I would never have all this if I didn't have this struggle. Pain is not the worst thing."
Jessen answered a question about her opinion on allowing abortion for rape victims by saying that she does not advocate abortion. She said she knew women in that situation and that it was horrible, but she added that it was only one percent of all abortions.
"We are not God," she said. "It is not up to us to give or take life," she said.
But she said she did not speak to condemn women who had abortions or who contemplated the idea.
Jessen referred to her beliefs when asked about stem cell research. Human beings should not meddle with certain ability only meant for God to handle, she said.
"I just don't believe we were made to do some of the things we are doing." she said.
Anne Liggett, Portland, Ore., freshman, said she didn't know what to expect from Jessen before the speech, but she appreciated her straight-forwardness.
"She stands and speaks the truth

KUnited puts renewable energy plan on platform
STUDENT SENATE ELECTIONS
BY DANIEL BERK
dberk@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
If everything goes KUinited's way,
campus will become a healthier place.
If everything goes KUnited's way, campus will become a healthier place. One of the main issues on KUnited's platform is to purchase energy from renewable sources for all student-funded buildings through a green-tag system, which produces clean and healthy energy, instead of energy produced with fossil fuels.
The green tag is simply a paper certificate an energy company gives after the purchase of energy. The certificate says how much energy has been purchased and for what purpose.
Green tags relay energy from windmills to other locations to provide energy that is not harmful to the environment. The energy gets relayed by purchasing energy from a company and reserving it for a certain building, Jason Boots, Plano, Texas, junior said. One such company is Pristine Power, the company that made the initial green-tag presentation to Student Senate.
The only student-funded building on campus now is the Student Recreation Fitness Center, but the new Multicultural Resource Center would also fall under that category.
Boots, who has been working with green tags for Senate, said that the company that would supply the energy has a power grid, and the one closest to campus would be used for the Student Recreation Fitness Center.
BRIAN KENNEDY
Nick Sterner, presidential candidate for KUnited, said right now the program is in the research phase, and KUnited is trying to gather as much information about renewable energy and green tags as possible.
Boots
WONDERFUL
There was supposed to be a proposal for a $1 fee to fund green tags at the Senate meeting tonight. Jeff Dunlap,
student body vice president, withdrew the bill from Senate, and said there had to be more research done before a fee was proposed to the student body.
Sterner
Sterner agreed with Dunlap and was involved in the decision to withdraw the bill. Sterner said there was a task force that was just formally put together to look into bringing green tags to campus.
"Right now, the task force is talking to different companies about prices," Sterner said. "They are also looking into what type of power, either wind or
solar, that the campus would use."
Sterner, Shawnee junior, said green tags could be either wind powered, solar powered or hydrogen powered. If it is decided not to build windmills in the Flint Hills area, then Sterner said a likely choice would be to go to solar-powered green tags.
There has not been a decision about how renewable energy would be paid for. Dunlap said he thought a change to student fees would be necessary to fund it.
Sterner said that it was too early to determine how much the project would cost, and that there might be enough money in either the Senate's surplus funds or reserve funds to pay for it.
There are two options that Senate could pursue to bring green tags to campus. Sterner said they could either do a pilot, which is a one-year trial program or fund the project long-term.
Either way, the first priority, Sterner said, is to bring renewable energy to the Student Recreation Fitness Center.
"We want to do everything we can to fund the buildings that students already pay for." Sterner said.
Eventually, Sterner said KUnited would look into bringing green tags to the new Multicultural Resource Center.
Sterner thinks this is one of the bigger issues on the KUnited platform, and thinks it could benefit students.

Actor Mandy Patinkin to appear at University Theatre fundraiser

Members of the KU Friends of the Theatre decided they needed some star power to help raise money.

So they asked Mandy Patinkin, known for playing the death-avenging Inigo Montoya in the 1986 film, "The Princess Bride," to come by for an interview.
A
Patinkin
- WHAT, A Conversation with
Mandy Patinkin
modeled after the Bravo show "Inside the Actors Studio."
♦ WHEN: 8 p.m. Saturday
"It's an in-depth interview without the actors promoting anything," said Kip Grosshans, president of the KU Friends of the Theatre.
♦ WHERE: Crafton-Preyer Theatre, Murphy Hall
Theater and film students will have an interest in asking Patinkin about the film industry, Grosshans said.
"I need to come up with some good questions to ask him so I don't look like an idiot," Eric Avery, Topeka junior, said.
♦ COST: $40 for general public,
$20 for students.
Tickets can be ordered at the University ticket office, 864-3982, or at www.kutheatre.com.
Source: University Theatre
In addition to the interview
Grosshans wrote a musical medley that will be performed by three University of Kansas students highlighting aspects of Patinkin's career.
The performance features musical blurbs from "Evita," "Sunday in the Park with George," "Dick Tracy" and "Fiddler on the Roof," which Patinkin performed in while he attended the University from 1970 to 1972.
The group will have only three group rehearsals before Saturday's performance because all of the performers are in shows or have other commitments, Avery, who is singing in
the performance. said.
"It's a challenge." he said. "It goes from one thing to another and the music is complicated in structure."
Matt Jacobson, associate professor of theatre and film, is constructing a film montage of Patinkin on stage and on screen. The montage will show the breadth of his work. Jacobson said.
"Everyone remembers him from "The Princess Bride," but not everybody knows him from the Showtime series 'Dead Like Me' or Broadway," he said. "He's been in everything from 'Alien Nation' to 'Sesame Street.'"
Proceeds from the benefit will go to help fund a scholarship for theatre and film students and an installation of a digital personal sound amplification system, which helps hearing-impaired patrons by giving them receivers that pick up transmissions from the theater's sound board.
The KU Friends of the Theatre do a fundraiser like the one scheduled for Saturday night about once every three years.

War occurrences symposium's focus
The University of Kansas will host a three-day symposium tomorrow through Saturday to discuss the experiences of soldiers who served in World War II.
Twenty-one participants from throughout the United States are expected to take part in lectures and panel discussions.
"I try to do at least one of these per year," said Jonathan Earle, program director for the Robert J. Dole Institute of Politics. "I thought it was appropriate this year since it is the 60th anniversary of the end of World War II and also coincides with Senator Dole's book about being a soldier in the war."
A lecture to kick off the symposium will be held at 7:30 p.m. tomorrow in the Kansas Union. The subsequent events will take place at the Dole Institute.

Missing woman found raising birds
OKLAHOMA CITY — A convicted murderer and a deputy warden's wife who disappeared nearly 11 years ago have been found living together and raising chickens in Texas. The woman said she was held captive the whole time, staying with the killer out of fear her family would be harmed if she fled. Bobbi Parker, 42, has been reunited with her husband, who never remarried, and authorities were trying yesterday to piece together details of the strange case.

The state constitution will be amended on Friday after all votes have been certified. The amendment will limit the definition of marriage to a civil contract between one man and one woman only. It will also deny the rights and incidents of marriage to all relationships except marriage.
That raises some legal issues, said Richard Levy, professor in the University's School of Law.
For example, married couples have enhanced penalties for domestic violence. People in non-married relationships use to have similar domestic violence penalties as married couples.
Under the new amendment, a non-married person charged with domestic violence could argue for less strict penalties than those enforced against married people, Levy said.
"The argument is there to be made." Levy said.
He said the amendment also raised issues about how child custody was determined for non-married couples and how businesses provided benefits to non-married couples.
"The courts will have to sort it out," Levy said.

Jessen also mentioned that she has forgiven her biological mother, which surprised Aubrey Dahl, Leawood freshman, who was expecting a more negative reaction.

"It's just really inspiring that someone could overcome trials and wake up each day and look at life in the perspective she has," Dahl said.
Jessen praised President Bush and Jesus Christ, which prompted applause and several "amens" from

She met the president on Aug. 5, 2002 — the day he signed the Born-Alive Infants Protection Act, which guarantees that live-born infants, regardless of their stage of development if they survived an abortion, would receive full legal rights under federal law. She said Bush told her he would not give up on her.

are each responsible for one committee: Comedy & Concerts, Cultural Arts, Films, Games & Novelty, Social Issues or Traditions. Connealy said that to come up with new ideas for events, the executive members have committee meetings with everyone in the organization, where they brainstorm and vote on which events they would like to pursue.
SUA also relies on many volunteers to help come up with event ideas and run events. Connealy said any student can get involved with SUA, suggesting event ideas and volunteering at events.
Every year, SUA sponsors its events with a budget of about $100,000 from the KU Memorial Unions. This is unusual compared to other KU groups, which run on student fees.
But following this year's campus election, SUA's budget could triple. Student Senate recently passed a bill to add a referendum to this spring's voting ballot in which students can
vote whether to add $5 to their activity fees to go to SUA. Connealy said with the student fee, SUA could get more high-profile guests.
Already, extensive planning goes into SUA's programming. Members are consistently researching comedians and music talent, often facing conflicts between open dates at the Lied Center and celebrity's schedules. They also come up with a budget for each potential event before they go into a board meeting. Conneally said.
Peart said the main purposes of SUA were to give students options for involvement outside the classroom and to program fun events for the campus and community.
"The organization serves for training and leadership, so it has an educational purpose as well as outreach," Peart said.
Shawn Harrell, St. Louis senior,
saw Bill Cosby speak at Allen
Fieldhouse during Homecoming Week
last fall, an event SUA helped sponsor.
"It made me appreciate KU, that such a high-profile, well-respected celebrity came here," Harrell said. "I
was glad to be able to experience it." Adrienne Harris, Ark City senior, said that of all SUA events, she has only gone to the movies.
"It's cheap, $2 to go to a movie. It's cheaper than going to a movie theater, and the movies are not very old."
Currently, SUA is planning several special events for the end of the semester. Recess, a just-for-kicks event featuring human bowling and a climbing wall will be held on the lawn in front of Stauffer-Flint Hall. SUA will hold a bluegrass festival on the hill by Potter Lake. And some small concerts will be performed during the Kansas Relaws. April 21-23.
SUA meetings are open to all students, and the organization takes suggestions for any hair-brained ideas for events.
"We encourage people to stop by the office or just come to one of our meetings," Connealy said.

"I don't know if many other girls know about that," Curtis said. "My mom taught me to do that and she's paranoid."
A separate incident involved a KU student walking on cars in Oliver's parking lot late on March 5. When a group saw him, he jumped off of the car he was on top of and hit a 19-year-old male KU student, according to the police report. He then got into a car with two women, who told him to get out of the car. As he got out, he touched one of them on her breast. KU Police arrested the student and charged him with sexual battery, battery and criminal damage.
There have been 65 reported thefts and nine reported cases of assault and battery in residence hall parking lots during the past five years, according to the KU Public Safety Office. Capt. Schuyler Bailey, KU Public Safety Office, said four of these cases came from two incidents in which both individuals filed charges against each other.
Scholarship hall parking lots experienced security issues as well.
There have been 29 reported complaints to the KU Police Department in scholarship hall parking lots since 2000, Bailey said.
Reports ranged from criminal damage to urinating in public.
Reported scholarship hall parking lot incidents to KU Public Safety Office, by parking lot (unlisted years have zero reported incidents):
Taylor Price, Overland Park sophomore, said parking at scholarship halls was more of a problem than most people thought. Price lives in Douthart Scholarship Hall.

"Two weeks ago, someone came back drunk from the bars, jumped from a wall onto the hood of my car and drew a smiley face with the dust on it." Price said of the way he thought the incident occurred.
Douthart is located about a block away from the Hawk, 1340 Ohio St., and the Wheel, 507 W. 14th St. Price said her car got damaged at Lot 122, which is the parallel parking on Louisiana Street.

Ken Stoner, director of student housing, said scholarship halls needed to be particularly attentive to bar traffic at night because of their location. It's different than the residence halls, which are not located by any bars, he said.

"It's not like you're walking on Jayhawk Boulevard," Stoner said.
Jamie Hickok, Douthart resident and Wichita sophomore, had her side-view mirrors damaged on the Louisiana Street parallel parking lot.
"It's frustrating because the scholarship hall residents are some of the most active, involved and successful students on campus," Price said. "It's very unfortunate that our cars seem to be sustaining the most damages on campus from any residential group."
"I have to pay for everything myself when it comes to my car, so I was mad that I had to shell out $200 to get my mirrors fixed." Hickok said.
As for Price, she just wants to see her car remain unharmed.

"Space is dictating how we teach and that's not how it should be done," he said.
among the seven buildings the school occupies, Audus said.
Having faculty in so many different places has caused problems, Audus said. Faculty rush between buildings to teach and do research, and students have a hard time reaching their professors.
A new building would bring all research and teaching together for the first time since the late '80s. Audus said.
Funds for the new building would come from alumni, whom he began meeting with a year ago when he became dean.
No definite plans for the new building have been drawn up,
The school's work in research and need for teaching space has made the new building a big issue for students and faculty, said Jake Stolz, Colwich fourth-year pharmacy student and class president.
"When I sit in on meetings, all the faculty are really excited," Stolz said.

Stolz is one of three class presidents for pharmacy stu
He said being split up is a pain for students as well as faculty, and both are happy about the prospect of a new building.
There are student concerns about parking and the availability of food services on West Campus, but Stolz said those problems will be worked out during the next several years.

Our sales representative, Jessica, stays in touch and lets us know when special editions are happening that are relevant to our business.
We always receive a great response from KU students who know the value of a good massage at a reasonable price. How can you beat a $25 one-hour massage? We appreciate the fact that KU students help us enhance the learning process of our students.

Liberals confuse Coulter's words react without listening to lecture
---
The author of the Thursday letter to the editor accused Ann Coulter, Vickers Memorial speaker, of disrespecting the "University community."
ANDREW FRAY afray@kansan.com
Whatever a "university community" is, Coulter's "shenanigans" were only alleged. Liberals disrespect
for the open exchange of ideas, however, was proven that night.
The disrespectful rhetoric at the Lied Center was not coming from the stage. Coulter's detractors attending the event with preconceived notions, i.e. marked pages in their Al Franken books, simply attended waiting for words they disliked before they started banging their spoons on their high-chairs, which took approximately 30 seconds.
Ooften people have a problem not with content but with the messenger.
As a "woman who advocates freedom of speech" Coulter found it difficult to speak over those awkwardly trying to recreate some '60s-era scene by yelling hackneyed slogans. Freedom of speech doesn't mean yelling "fascist" in a crowded theatre.
To say the hecklers were "challenging" Coulter would be disingenuous. They were, however, "challenging" repeated requests to act more civily. While mocking Coulter they were contemporaneously becoming the butt of the joke. Coulter has written that within minutes of discussing the Middle East, a liberal often squeals "Halliburton" and proudly thinks he's made a point.
Showing slightly more cunning than the young lady behind me who called Coulter "anti-Semitic," several detractors prefaced effusive yet uninformed questions with "I'm not a liberal but..." I'm not a conservative, but I think we should lower taxes, abolish race-based quotas and out-law killing unborn babies because the mother doesn't want to raise it after having conceived it.
A few minutes into Coulter's speech about Iraq, a young man in the balcony scaled a staggering one word argument: "Halliburtton!" Touche.
See. it doesn't work.
Because many hecklers refused to compose themselves from the beginning, Coulter asked the College Republicans to do free what the ushers should have already done. Gasp. Most of the ushrens apparently thought the extent of their job
was to sternly fold their arms and huddle by the exits.
The author claimed Coulter "made irreverent comments about minorities including brown men."
Coulter explained President Bush's Middle East policies, which are spreading
PAGE 9A
democracy, closing death camps, etc. To the embarrassment of liberals, these policies are supported by Middle Easterners.
Coulter referred to democracy's supporters in the Middle East as our "brown brothers." Because "brother" was the more important half of Coulter's alliteration, liberals were again prepared to focus on whatever they could re-contextualize as "hate speech."
"Brown man" and "brown brother" sound similar, but someone listening closely should have understood that Coulter was not referring to minorities. Note: Iraqis in Iraq are not minorities. If the author was seated among the sophomoric hecklers, perhaps she misunderstood because of their clamoring. Whereas the hecklers themselves misunderstood because of either their lack of aptitude or tolerance.
About eight million Iraqi brown brothers voted in the January elections. John Kerry said that would never happen. A fact conveniently ignored by Bush-hating feminists is that half of them were women. We can call them brown sisters to be fair.
The author could better express her disgust for irreverence by reminding the Rev. Jesse Jackson that fathering children out of wedlock was irreverent. She might remind the Rev. Al Sharpton that inciting disorder in the streets of Brooklyn, N.Y., resulting in the beating deaths of several shopowners, was irreverent.
Would the aforementioned young lady also call Sharpton "anti-Semitic" if she knew the victims were Jewish? Jackson and Sharpton claim Republican policies don't help blacks. One prominent, black, ex-congressman who would heartily disagree is J.C. Watts, the University's 2003 Vickers Memorial speaker.
All I ask is for the peace-loving liberals to prove that their parents taught them to be peaceful. If admittance is allowed to the sloppily dressed again next year, they'll have their chance.

If the Bible is correct, and God does control life and death, then Schiavo's passing was part of his plan. Those who protested her death should realize that if there is a heaven, she is in a better place.

Schiavo died Thursday in the swirl of a religious debate. She was cremated Monday after 13 days of starvation and dehydration when her husband ordered her feeding tube be removed. Schiavo had brain damage from a chemical imbalance some said was caused by bulimia. The feeding tube had sustained her in a vegetative state for about 15 years.

Conservatives, including President Geroge W. Bush, who protested the stop-feeding order, said it was the duty of the strong to protect the weak. Because Schiavo didn't have a living will, her husband and parents fought in court about whether to remove the tube. It was removed and reinserted twice before the courts ruled in favor of Michael Schiavo, Terri's husband. Her husband, however, would know better than anyone whether she would have wanted to continue living.
But could Schiavo's experience be considered life? She couldn't feed herself or communicate. Doctors said she was in a permanent vegetative

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
University needs to better support museum, student research efforts
The Museum of Anthropology at the University of Kansas houses cultural collections representative of indigenous peoples across the globe. These collections represent the cultural diversity that the University claims to support.
But I am gravely concerned about the poor condition that these cultural collections are in and the lack of staffing available to properly care for and preserve these collections. Despite the expertise of the current staff and their willingness to help student researchers, often their administrative duties and other tasks in running the museum limit their availability to students.
Several years ago, the University cut the Museum of Anthropology budget, eliminating staff, including a curator position, thus leaving the museum and its collections in jeopardy.
Almost three years ago KU administration closed the museum to the public, further eliminating grant avenues available to the museum.
If the University is really committed to its students and their research, the administration will step up and consider how it can better support the museum financially and administratively.
The University has a responsibility to ensure that the Museum of Anthropology's collections are properly cared for and not left sitting on dusty shelves to deteriorate.
I am aware that other departments on campus, such as Anthropology, Archaeology, Art History, Museum Studies and Indigenous Nations Studies, use collections in the muse-
use collections in the museum. If the University fails to support this museum and allows these collections to disappear, these departments and other students will no longer have access to these collections for research purposes, and it will be detrimental to the future of my master's thesis.

Condemn Canadian government's slaughter of Harp seals
There is a slaughter of Harp seals going on in Canada. In the slaughter that will run through May, at least 300,000 animals will be shot or clubbed. Counting the animals killed this year, a total of 975,000 have been slaughtered since 2003.
Most seals killed are between two and 12 weeks old, unable to swim and completely helpless. They are skinned so their pelts can be used for coats. In previous years some 42 percent of the seals may have been skinned alive and conscious, according to research conducted by independent veterinarians.
The United States Senate passed Resolution 33 this year urging Canada to stop the "hunt" in part because of this evidence.
"Hunters" are supposed to ensure the seals are dead, but an observer from the Humane Society of the United States stated that she had seen seals moving and crying left in piles to die, as well as live seals stomped and imoaled.
I urge you to join this boycott and write letters to Canada's prime minister and the minister of Canada's department of fisheries and oceans. Please help end this.
Many groups, including the Human Society of the United States, are spearheading a boycott of Canadian seafood in an effort to end such hunts.
The justification for this slaughter is that fish-stocks need to replenish themselves. But there is evidence that the problem is not the seals, but over-fishing.

Justin Brewer, KU graduate, lead singer and guitarist, performs with fellow band member, drummer Chris Cardwell, Lincoln,Neb., junior, during Tunes @ Noon Friday, outside the Kansas Union. About 20 students gathered outside the Union to listen to the band, Thinktank, in the nice weather.
One night while at Abe and Jake's Landing for a Pomeroy concert, when her day job was the farthest thing from her mind, Rachel Peart ran into an old high school friend. They talked about bands, mutual friends and other topics that come up in a conversation held over the top of loud music. The two got around to talking about SUA, which Peart's friend praised for its appealing events and student leadership. He asked her how she was involved with it.
"I'm the president this year," said Peart, an Overland Park junior.
Her friend was so excited, he shook Peart's hand — glad to know the leader of one of his favorite campus organizations.
For 66 years, Student Union Activities has served the University of Kansas, bringing both large and small acts to campus.

In 1993, Adam Sandler.

SUA frequently co-sponsors events with other organizations. Any student group can present its project or event to SUA to be considered for co-sponsorship.

Outside the doors of the Lied Center, where many of these high-profile acts appeared, SUA also programs regular series events. Included in this list are films at Woodruff Auditorium, meditation at Danforth Chapel, Tunes @
Noon outside the Union, Open Forums on Wescoe Beach, poetry slams at the Hawks Nest and more.
All this programming, from James Carville last year to "Ocean's Twelve" last week, is done by students.
"Everything we do is completely created and run by students," said Kaitlin Connealy, SUA director of public relations and Leawood junior.
As a student-run organization, SUA is sponsored by KU Memorial Unions, a separate organization from the University. The organization has faculty advisers employed by the Unions, but students initiate programming ideas and make the decisions. They administer the events, sometimes finishing up at their Union office until the late hours of the night.

"We all stay committed," Peart said. "We keep it so it's not like a job, but it's fun." The SUA office is cluttered with colorful posters and props, attesting to this claim.
SUA has about 30 committee members who are involved in the voting process, plus nine board members. Of the board members, three are executive president, vice president and director of public relations and six are coordinators, who

Junior pitcher Don Czyz throws a pitch during a game against Nebraska March 26. The Jayhawks host in-state rival Wichita State at 7 tonight at Hoglund Ballpark.
'Shocking rivalry resumes
BY ALISSA BAUER
abauer@kansan.com
KANSAN SPORTWRITER
Taking a slight break from Big 12 Conference games, Kansas (22-12, 2-4) prepares to face in-state rival Wichita State University (23-9, 1-2) in the first of four meetings this season.
Both teams enter tonight's 7 p.m. contest at Hoglund Ballpark following a series loss this weekend. After picking up the series opener in extra innings against Texas A&M, Kansas could not keep the momentum and dropped the next two games.
The Shockers struggled with extra innings against Missouri Valley Conference opponent Evansville. Wichita State lost the first and third games of the series, both in extra innings. The Shockers' only victory came in the second game of the series, 11-0.
"I personally think its a huge midweek game. You put two of the best programs in the Midwest and you've got an in-state rivalry that's unparalleled in baseball." coach Ritch Price said.
After just one conference series this season, No. 21 Wichita State has accumulated half of its total conference losses from 2004, when the Shockers went 49-16 and 28-4 in the MVC.
This game marks the 56th meeting between the two clubs. The series has been dominated by Wichita State, coached by Gene Stephenson, who is in his 28th season.
Although Kansas split two games with Wichita State in 2004, Wichita State holds a commanding 37-18 lifetime series lead.
The in-state rivalry is fueled by the usual passion for winning, but as Kansas continues to improve, recruiting in-state players gets increasingly tough.
Price says that both Matt and Ryan Baty and possibly Travis Metcalf would have played for Wichita State if Kansas had not taken big strides in its program.
"If their offensive numbers aren't as good as they've been in the past it may be because Nebraska became a national power and as we've gotten better, we've hurt them," Price said.
Sophomore infielder Derek Schermerhorn leads Wichita State with 31 RBI and a .339 batting average. He has hit safely in 25 consecutive games.
Senior catcher Joe Muich was another bright spot in the Shockers loss on Sunday, when he hit his team-leading fourth home run. The three-run shot gave Muich his 22nd RBI of the year.
Seniors Phil Napolitan, utility player, and Nick McCoola, shortstop, continue to dominate at the plate for Wichita. Napolitan is batting .353 with 13 RBI. McCoola, only a few points behind him at .547, has 21 RBI on the season.
Lett-hander Max Hutson (1-0) will take the mound against Kansas this afternoon. Hutson has a 4.22 ERA in his 10.2 innings pitched.
"You look at their numbers and there's no doubt that pitching is the strength of their team." Price said.
The Jayhawks enter the contest hitting .305 as a team. Although they were out-hit 43-24 in their last series against the Aggies, they still bring seven starters hitting over .300 into tonight's probable lineup.
Jared Schweitzer, junior first baseman, was the hero in Kansas' last victory. Schweitzer hit a game winning two-run double in the 12th inning. He is hitting .314.
On the mound for the Jayhawks, junior closer Don Czyz (3-1) continues to anchor the staff, who pitched relief for the weekend's only win.
Senior catcher Sean Richardson led the way against the Aggies last weekend. He went 5-10 in the series and collected four RBI. Richardson is batting .347 and has 24 RBI..
Price announced that they will staff-pitch tonight's game. Sophomore left-hander Sean Land will throw the first two innings followed by senior right-handed Clint Schambach (2-3).
Price then plans to use a list of freshman pitchers through the game's end.
"We've struggled in the Saturday game on the weekend. In order to continue to improve as a program, we've got to develop our young guys," Price said. "We're trying to mask the problem."
All four games will be televised in the Kansas City and Wichita areas. Lawrence, however, will not have the game broadcast.
Cox Cable will air the game in Wichita while Metro Sports will show the game in Kansas City.
"It's one of the few times you get to play a mid-week game in a special. All four games are on TV and I don't think it could be any better than that," Price said.

Pitcher perfect
Co-captain Serena Settlemier pitches no-hitter in victory

A perfect game at the perfect time.
The Kansas softball team defeated UMKC yesterday 8-0 at Arrocha Ballpark in six innings. Junior pitcher and co-captain Serena Settlemier pitched a perfect game as the Jayhawks found the win column again after a six-game losing skid.
"We had a lot of fun, and that is what winning is all about," Settlierier said. "This was a good game to get out of the rut we were in. We're playing as a team and that's what we need to do to win games."
Settlemier had seven strikeouts and moved to 8-5 on the season.
Kansas coach Tracy Bunge said the team's success would start and end with pitching. She said Settlemier threw crisp strikes with high velocity and good command.
Atter losing six in a row, the victory is a major step forward for the lavhawk.
"It is nice to feel good about ourselves," Bunge said.
Bunge said the team did everything right yesterday. Offensively, the Jayhawks got 11 hits, securing their victory. Freshman outfielder Jackie Vasquez came out strong and went 2-3 with 3 RBI.
"Hitting is contagious on this team," Bunge said. "Heather Stanley continues doing a good job the last couple of weeks in the leadoff position getting things going early," she said.
Stanley, junior outfielder, led the team with three hits yesterday.
Defensively, the team did not have an error, helping Settlemier retire 18 straight. Junior catcher Ashley Goodrich had a solid game catching in her first career start at catcher. Freshman catcher Elle Potterf, who caught every inning until she went down with an injury to her lower leg on Sunday against Texas A&M, is still out. Bunge said Potterf was still day-to-day.
Bunge said her team still had a long way to go to climb back into the Big 12 Conference race.
Serena Settlemier, junior pitcher, threw a perfect game against UMKC yesterday afternoon, which was the first perfect game since 1994. The Jayhawks beat the Kangaroos 8-0.
"If we can get things turned around, we are not out of the mix." Bunge said.
Kansas had a tough draw to begin conference play, competing against two of the elite teams in the Big 12. Texas and Texas A&M.
The team will head to Stillwater, Okla., this weekend to face Big 12 opponent Oklahoma State Saturday and Sunday.

Self is a better coach to lead the Jayhawks
P
CALEB REGAN
cregan@kansan.com
As I sat on a barstool Monday night trying to remove that hand print on my face that is Roy Williams' national championship, Bill Self kept popping into my mind.
On March 24, The Kansas City Star ran an article in which athletics director Lew Perkins was quoted saying he received a handful of emails demanding the firing of Self.
The same article said that Self received around 150 letters that would sit unopened until he returned from vacation. He assumed the majority of those letters were negative and he didn't want to read them so soon.
Good fans would give him better. An opening-round loss in a coach's second year with the team is no cause for firing. Especially in college basketball.
Here are five reasons why I'm glad Kansas has Self as its basketball coach.
No. 1 — First and foremost, my school and its prestigious basketball program wasn't good enough for Roy, and the school deserved better. I've read many articles this week about how much he loved and still loves old Kansas. That's crap.
If he loved it,he wouldn't have said in
2001 that he'd never consider leaving again.
Does anyone else remember watching games in the fieldhouse and hearing the crowd roar when Roy took off his jacket? How lame for a man to perform rehearsed antics on the sideline to try and arouse the crowd.
No. 2 — Self is a better man than the previous basketball coach. Comparisons are unfair to both men, I realize, but in this case they are necessary.
Self is more real than that. He refrains from using the "doggones" and "gosh-darnits" in favor of more real lingo. I can't count the number of times I've been watching a game on TV and seen Self cover his mouth and yell.
I'm pretty sure those aren't gosh-darns. That's more real than Roy's good ol' boy front.
No. 3 — Self is good enough for Larry Brown
The benevolent LB produced a national championship in 1988 before he left for the NBA. That makes him THE MAN.
He's had success at all levels, and at many different places. On Monday, he was documented as saying that Self is the right man for Kansas. He's a man that knows transitional periods for programs as much as anyone. He said to give Self time; you have to trust LB.
No. 4 — Recruiting.
Judging by the McDonald's All-American game, Kansas is in good hands. I don't know what the hell Roy was thinking before he left, because after this senior class, he had no one to turn to. Moulaye and the gang
PETER SCHLEINER
Williams
would have probably been successful, but he left next to nothing compared to what there is now.
Self, on the other hand, appears to be able to sell a ketchup popsicle to a lady in white gloves (Julian Wright committed after one in-house visit). He has an easier sell than that
because his popsicle is Kansas basketball and Allen Fieldhouse.
No. 5 — Last of all, the future national championship.
In the recruiting Mario Chalmers, Self told him that they would be in a Final Four in Chalmers' sophomore season. Lofty expectations, but with the seasoning of the current freshman and the incoming group, the next four years should be fun.
Self, as you can see, is a better man. He's more real, regardless of the Xs and Os, than Roy was. It turns out Roy is the opposite of honest and left with no integrity.
I'm confident Kansas will eventually get a national championship.
I won't be around to see it, but I'll be glad for Self. Those letters on his desk and all those nay-sayers will, in time, be proven wrong.

Ankiel looks to go to minors unless team makes claim
HOUSTON — Rick Ankiel was placed on unconditional release waivers by the St. Louis Cardinals, who are waiting to find out whether he will be claimed by another team.
MLB
Ankiel, who was on the Cardinals' opening-day roster Sunday, was out of options. He has a $400,000 salary, and the Cardinals have said they hope to have him in their minor league system if he is not claimed by another team.
He ended his pitching career last month because of recurring wildness, then started working out as an outfielder. The Cardinals would like to send him to the minors to relearn a position he hasn't played since high school.
Ankiel, 25, has a. 207 career average in the major leagues with two homers, a double, a triple and nine RBIs in 87 at-bats. He impressed as a designated hitter for the Cardinals' rookie league team in Johnson City, Tenn., hitting 10 homers in 2001.

Chiefs sign wide receiver defensive end from Titans
KANSAS CITY, Mo. - The Kansas City Chiefs acquired a wide receiver and a defensive end from the Tennessee Titans yesterday, addressing two pressing needs.
The Chiefs agreed to give the Titans an undisclosed choice in this month's NFL draft for defense sive end Carlos Hall, a restricted free agent.
The 6-foot-3, 259-pound Hall has made 31 starts in three years with Tennessee. In 2004, he had 41 tackles, 2.5 sacks and recovered one fumble. Shoring up the defense has been the top off-season priority for the Chiefs, who have also signed linebacker Kendrell Bell and safety Sammy Knight.
"He should become an important part of our defensive end rotation," said Chiefs president Carl Peterson. "Carlos has been a very productive player in his brief three-year career and his best football should be ahead of him."
Also yesterday, receiver Darrell Hill signed a two-year contract with the Chiefs. The team did not release any other terms of the deal. Hill, 6-3, 200 pounds, appeared in 14 games for the Titans last season and ranked third on the team with 15 special teams tackles.
Golfer drives team to regionals
WOMEN'S GOLF
By TRAVIS ROBINETT
trobinet@hansan.com
KANSAN SPORTWRIETER
Sophomore golfer Amanda Costner could have been a softball player instead of a golfer, but during her freshman year of high school, she had to choose between the two.
"My doctor actually told me that I had to choose sports," Costner said. "Softball was kind of messing with my golf swing, so I decided that I was going to take golf seriously and I wanted to play at a collegiate level."
During her second year on the women's golf team, Costner has proven to be the most consistent player. This spring she is the only player on the team who averages fewer than 80 strokes per round in tournament play. She has posted the top Jawahawk score in every tournament but last week's Mountain View Collegiate in
Part of Costner's success comes from taking lessons from golf instructor Tracy Phillips whenever she goes home. Phillips also teaches some LPGA players, Costner said.
Tueson, Ariz., where she came in second.
PAMELA SMITH
"I've been working with him since the beginning of last summer," Costner said. "He has almost completely changed my swing."
Costner
Coach Erin O'Neil has also contributed to Costner becoming a better player. In O'Neil's first season with the team, she has already made an impact.
"Coach O'Neil is great," Costner said. "She is very competitive. She wants to win, and she can do everything she can to help us get better.
The Associated Press
She is very knowledgeable about the game and its mental aspects."
Being a former professional who played on the Futures Tour gives O'Neil knowledge that team members like Costner can use to improve their games.
Costner dreams of playing professional golf someday, like O'Neil did, but for now she must concentrate on the team's goal to reach regionals.
"Right now we're ranked 22nd and they take 21 teams," Costner said. "So we are right on the bubble. I believe we can make regional if we do well in the next two tournaments we play."
The Jayhawks are coming off of their most important performance of the season so far. At the Mountain View Collegiate, Costner said the team gained a lot of confidence.
"We shot all three rounds under 300 for the first time all year, with a lot of scores in the low 70s." Costner
said. "Our freshmen did awesome."
Even if the Jayhawks do not make regionals, Costner has two more years of collegiate golf to look forward to. Her goals include winning a tournament individually and helping the team win a tournament.
She decided to come to Kansas over Tulsa, Oklahoma and Oral Roberts. She said that since she was little, she wanted to attend Tulsa.
"I took my visit here and I really felt like this was a place where God wanted me to be," Costner said. "I liked all the girls here, and I knew that it would be a good opportunity for me to play in good tournaments at a Division I school."
Costner said that now that it is the end of her sophomore year, she knows this is exactly where she is supposed to be.

From cellar to stellar: Bears win it all
WOMEN'S BASKETBALL
BY CHUCK SCHOFFNER THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
INDIANAPOLIS — The Baylor Bears simply wanted to be a shining light for a university that needed something to applaud. One dazzling national championship ought to do.
Sophia Young's 26 points, Emily Niemann's precise 3-point shooting and the brilliant, energetic play of Baylor's backcourt carried Baylor to an 84-62 victory over Michigan State last night for the school's first NCAA title by a women's team.
And what a title run it was. Five years after coach Kim Mulkey-Robertson took over a team that went 7-20 and was at the bottom of the Big 12, the Bears now sit at the top of their sport after winning a game between two teams playing in the finals for the first time.
It was the second-largest margin of victory in a championship game, falling one point short of the record set in 1987 when Tennessee beat Louisiana State 67-44.
"What a team I get to coach!" Mukley-Robertson said. "It wasn't the coaching, it's these guys taking me for a tremendous ride."
When the horn sounded Tuesday
night, the Bears flopped on the floor in delirious celebration as a rainbow of neon-colored confetti sprayed all around the RCA Dome. They jumped in unison, donned championship caps and fans chanted "Mulkey! Mul-key!" while the players swarmed their elated coach.
They won with unforgiving defense that disrupted almost everything Michigan State tried, and by poking enough holes in the Spartans' matchup zone to stay comfortably ahead after zooming to a 19-point lead in the first half. Niemann keyed the early surge and finished the first half with 15 points on 5-of-7 shooting from behind the 3-point line; she finished with 19.
AUT
"I think (Niemann) was the whole key to this game," Michigan State coach Joanne P. McCallie said. "If you take 51 off the floor, it was a different game. She was definitely the X-factor."
Not that the Bears were resting easy after that. Knowing that Michigan State had rallied from 16 down to beat Tennessee two nights before, Baylor kept attacking, making steals and scrambling for loose balls. Their killer instinct was a perfect reflection of their feisty coach, who

practically glowed in a bold aqua-blue pant suit as she stormed back and forth in front of the bench, calling plays, pleading for calls from the officials and cajoling her players to keep pressing — even with a 20-point lead. They responded.
They responded.
Young was unstoppable in the second half, scoring 18 points. The junior, who came to the United States from the West Indies at age 15 and had never played basketball before that, was named the most outstanding player of the Final Four.

HOROSCOPES
- Today's Birthday. You're usually too busy to spend much time in peaceful contemplation. This year, however, that will be the most valuable time of all. Ask questions that don't, at first, appear to have logical answers.
- Aries (March 21-April 19) Today is a 6. It's not a good day to travel. There'll be too many complications. You'll have enough on your mind if you hide out and go through your lists, instead.
- ♦ Taurus (April 20-May 20) Today is a 7. Confer with a person who's got the technical expertise you lack. You may be planning to spend more than necessary, and you'd hate that.
- Gemini (May 21-June 21) Today is a 7. Be alert, and try to see things from many points of view. You can act as translator and mediator for people who can't get along.
+ Cancer (June 22-July 22) Today is a 6. The answer to your question may be found the next county over. Don't
go there; you can't afford to take the time. Do make inquiries.
- Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) Today is a 7.
You'd like to give a loved one something special, but the odds are high you'll pick an item that's not quite right in some way. Best to take the recipient along when you go shopping.
- ♦ **Virgo** (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Today is a 6. The situation at home may be tumultuous, at least for a while. That's because it's a work in progress. Don't be too critical; just keep putting in the corrections.
- Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Today is a 6.
Creative ideas are difficult to control. They seem to come when they want, not when you want them to.
You can put yourself in a likely place for that to happen however, and open up.
- Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Today is a
7. You'd like to buy your loved ones
the sun and moon and stars.
Miniatures are a better idea, or offer
a rain check. You're a little short on cash.
- **Sagittarius** (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Today is a 6. You don't have much patience with whiners, and you'll be even more disgusted if the person complaining is you. Loved ones talk you out of a stinky mood.
*Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Today you are 6. You're about to drop a preconceived notion. It got you this far, but now it's time to let it go. You've learned enough to start moving up to the next level.
♦ Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Today is a 7. There's instability around your financial situation now. It's not a good time to buy, sell, loan money or start a new job. Take care.
- Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) Today is a 6. Some of the ideas you come up with seem almost bizarre to others. That's partially because you have trouble explaining a complicated concept. Wait until you can show them.

Some put aside ill will for Roy
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
BY STEVE BRISENDINE
There's still a picture of Roy Williams on the wall at the Downtown Barber Shop. It's just that it now hangs in the bathroom.
The painting moved the day Williams left Kansas, the program he swore would be his home forever, for his alma mater at North Carolina.
But owner Mike Amyx, and more than a few other die-hard Williams bashers, conceded a grudging admiration yesterday for ol' Roy, who finally won his first national title Monday night. It's just that — well, dadgummit, Jayhawk fans thought Williams would bring that title home to this storied college hoops town.
"People think we hate Roy, Amyx said. "But we're jealous he's with another team. We kind of wish he was back."
Williams spent 15 seasons at Kansas, leading the Jayhawks to 418 victories and two national title games. He turned down the Tar Heels when they came calling in 2000, promising to be a
"Jayhawk forever."
Three years later, he was gone.
His success with the Tar Heels reopened old wounds for fans who felt Williams insulted Kansas by making a move to North Carolina, especially since it came just days after the Jayhawks had played for a national title.
Williams' popularity made his departure hard to take, said Rose Hermann, who manages the university's Office of Olympic Sports.
Stuck in the middle is Bill Self, the Jayhawks' coach who left Illinois to take over for Williams.
"It wasn't about basketball. It was about losing a really good human being," Hermann said. "And I think that's how we all felt about it, if we'd be really honest."
But the talk of Williams' success didn't bother him, Self said. Nor, he said, was he sorry that he hadn't stayed at Illinois.
"If I weren't happy here, I might say I had mixed emotions about the game," he said. "But I'm very happy here."

Permit prices increase
Yellow passes to cost $140 in fall
BY JOSHUA BICKEL
jbickel@kansan.com
KANSAST WSST WRITER
Parking rates are increasing at the University of Kansas sooner than expected.
Yesterday, the Provost's Office chose to reject the Parking Commission's recommendations for next year's parking rate increase, according to a memo from Provost David Shulenburger.
On March 29, the Commission suggested that all parking permit rates increase 20 percent for next year. The Provost decided to raise all permit rates $55, except for reserved permits, which will increase $100.
Raising the rates more over a shorter period of time ensures that maintenance problems can be addressed and debts can be paid off as soon as possible, Shulenburger said in the memo.
and construction on a new Park and Ride lot to begin moving forward, Shulenburger said in the memo.
"I think there's a fear of not being able to build the Park and Ride lot if the increases aren't in place," said Donna Hultine, director of parking services. "The Provost is ensuring that the next steps happen."
This increase will help planning
Lower-priced permits, such as yellow and residence hall permits, which currently cost $85, will have a larger percentage increase than higher-priced permits, such as reserved lots.
For example, a yellow permit will cost $140 next fall, a 64 percent increase from this year. Reserved permits will increase to $700, which is about a 16 percent increase. Reserved permits currently cost $600 annually.
Shulenburger noted that staff pay more than students for similar parking.

Open Doors
Fines may add up for labs in
By Andy Hyland Kansan Senior Staff Write
An open hallway door in Malott or Haworth halls may not seem like a big deal, but to the fire marshal for the University of Kansas, it is.
Fire-rated doors to laboratories must remain closed at all times, said Bob Rombach, the fire marshal. Fire-rated doors are made to contain any fire in the labs for one hour, allowing people to leave safely through the hallways.
Malott and Haworth halls have never had a major fire or explosion, but Rombach and others are worried about what could happen if there was one.
Faculty and staff members who work in Malott and Haworth said they were concerned about fire safety, but they admitted that keeping the doors closed was a nuisance and made it harder to get lab work done.
He's so frustrated by the lack of response to his warnings that he's going to start issuing fines. A new directive from the state fire marshal, which went into effect March 17, allows Rombach to do just that. He can now assess fines of up to $1,000 if a violation is repeated for three consecutive years.
"We all agree. The likelihood of a fire is very remote." Rombach said. "The strange thing about accidents and fires is that it is that quirky thing that'll hit. And when they happen, we are a society that demands answers.
"You always think 'It's never me,' until it is you."
Inspection records kept by the fire marshal show that Malott, west of Budig Hall, was cited for 79 lab door-related citations, and Haworth, north of Robinson Center, was cited for 24 in 2004, the most recent records available. The same citations have been repeated since the fire marshal began keeping computer records in 1999.
About 80 percent of those violations involve doors left open, and some of the violations go back much further than 1999 in the citation log. Rombach said.
Rombach said the new policy would be implemented to contain potential fire and smoke in a room, separate exposure to a room and other occupants and contain any hazardous gases in the labs. "If there were a fire in one of these rooms and someone died what would you, the media, do?" he said. "You'd have so much ammunition with these violations because it's public record."
Rombach said the fire marshal's office had been focusing on larger issues for the past five years rather than the closed door policy.
"We haven't yet instituted a strong, directed program to keep the doors closed," he said. "It's about time we focus on those doors." Lab supervisors respond
Bill Picking, associate professor of biological sciences, said he kept his lab door closed but understood how some could leave

Nigger, fag, spic, dirty Jew,
gimp, trailer trash. These words
were on the wall of hate yesterday.
And with one pull, the wall came crashing down.
More than 20 representatives from different student organizations on campus were part of the tear down crew, which was asked to take down the wall.
All that remained of the wall that symbolically represented hate still present on campus was a long concrete stump.
"The Wall of Hate is built with fear and ignorance," said Kathryn Nemeth Tuttle, associate vice provost of student success. "We are here to break it down with love and courage."

Santos Nunetz, director of the MRC, said the project's purpose was to allow KU students to symbolically tear down walls that cause hate on campus.
Tuesday, students were invited to share their experiences of hate or discrimination on campus.
Nuhez said she found that many students found writing hate on the wall and than tearing it down to be very therapeutic.

Fees would fund testing
Cost of plan for condoms, STD tests would be borne by students

KANSAN STAFF WRITER
research to find out the number of STD tests conducted there in the past year. She said the results of that research would be valuable in deciding whether to pursue the idea.
If Delta Force is elected into office next week, one of the major issues the party will pursue is bringing free pregnancy and sexually transmitted disease testing to Watkins Memorial Health Center and adding condom dispensers at residence halls.
Patricia Denning, chief of staff at Watkins, said there would have to be research conducted before administrators would consider bringing free testing to Watkins.
"Those who would be using it would be sexually active," Denning said. "Those students who are not sexually active might not want to pay for the testing."
Denning said that costs for the tests would come out of student fees. Watkins is funded entirely by students now.
Denning said her biggest concern was what it would cost the students.
Denning said Watkins was doing
"Our budget is lean here," Denning said. "It's a cost that would be spread to all KU students."
Elaine Jardon, presidential candidate for Delta Force, said that the issue was important and that it was time to provide services rather than just educate people about STDs.
"We're big kids, we're grown up," Jardon said. "It's time to take action on this."
Carol Seager, director of Student Health Services, agreed with Denning that research would have to be undertaken before a decision could be made by Watkins administrators.
Seager said there would be three waters Watkins administrators would weigh: the input of students, the input of health care providers and the cost.
"It's a student idea, so it is totally worth looking into," Seager said. "Our decision to look into it is not
be borne by students based on personal beliefs, it is based on what the students want."
Robbie Rucker, Newton junior said he thought the testing was a good idea.
"There's plenty of people that need the testing," Rucker said. "If someone suspects something is wrong with them, they can just go down there and get it checked out."
Rucker said he wasn't sure about the idea of bringing condom dispensers to the residence halls because it might be sending a bad message.
"I think because sex is a choice and students have the ability to make that choice, students who are having safe sex and students who are choosing not to have sex should not have to make extra payments," Stover said.

Jaywalk involvement increases

Jaywalk has experienced an increase of volunteers and users this year and the service may expand to Daisy Hill this fall.
The Student Senate-funded program, which offers escorts to walk students to their cars or any building on campus, may expand as these numbers continue to increase. Jaywalk officials had hoped to have a station on Daisy Hill earlier this semester, but didn't have enough
volunteers, Triston DeWees, Jaywalk business manager, said.
Student Senate implemented the program Fall 2003. The program receives $5,100 per year, which pays for background checks on all Jaywalk volunteers, the monthly phone and Internet bills and advertising for the program.
DeWees said the program has had 62 calls so far this year, more than two times the 25 calls it had last year.

"I think everyone will benefit equally from improvements," Schulenburger said. "Since there's equal benefit there should be equal contribution."
He said an increase on yellow permits would makes prices for red and yellow lots more similar.
The rapid increase might affect student and staff permit sales initially and more students might turn to hourly garages instead of buying a permit next year. Hultine said.
"People will become more creative in how they get to campus," she said.
Hultine said that although initial reaction to the sharp increase might be negative, the Parking Department would be able to address issues, like lot maintenance and parking space deficits, sooner than expected.

TOPEKA — Even with new language in the Kansas Constitution dealing with same-sex unions, Attorney General Phill Kline said yesterday he wouldn't attack public or private benefit plans covering gays' and lesbians' partners.
Ney said Kline was trying to avoid litigation in Kansas, so the amendment didn't face scrutiny in state or federal court.
With final, unofficial results from Tuesday's balloting, 414,106, or 70 percent, voted "yes," and 178,018, or 30 percent voted "no."
The amendment reaffirms the state's long-standing policy of recognizing only marriages between one man and one woman. But it also declares that only such traditional unions are entitled to the "rights and incidents" of marriage, prohibiting the state from authorizing civil unions for gay couples.

Shuttle to launch after slight delay
NATION
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. — Space shuttle Discovery began its slow creep to the launch pad yesterday after a brief delay caused by the discovery of a crack in the external fuel tank's foam insulation. NASA later said the crack was no reason for concern.
NASA spokeswoman Jessica Rye described the flaw as a hairline crack and said that after sending images of it to the tank's manufacturer in Louisiana, the space agency concluded it did not need to make any repairs.
The flaw was discovered as the spacecraft was being readied for the first shuttle launch since Columbia fell to pieces two years ago — a disaster blamed on a chunk of foam.
NASA later said the 1 1/2 inch crack was on a spot that would not hit the vehicle if it flew off.
"It's a very, very tiny crack. Very, very narrow ... well within our experience base," said Mike Leinbach, shuttle launch director. "It was an acceptable condition for flight, so we rolled on out and we're going to fly with it just as it is."

The Taxpayer's Bill of Rights, or TABOR, limits the state government's spending to the change in the inflation plus population growth.
If the government earns more than the amount allowed to collect, it would have to return the extra money to taxpayers.
It would also require a ballot vote for tax increases.
State Rep. Brenda Landwehr (R-Sedgwick) introduced House Bill 5015 on Feb.24.
For the last 30 years, state spending has grown three times faster than the average Kansan's wages, she said.
The Kansas chapter of Americans for Prosperity is also in favor of the amendment, according to its Web site.
But the idea of voter approval for tax increases and limited government spending does not come without consequences.
TABOR caused many problems for higher education in Colorado, said Carol Hedges, an analyst with the Colorado Fiscal Policy Center. She is also the author of Ten Years of TABOR, a study analyzing the effects of TABOR in Colorado.
Colorado saw a dramatic reduction of money available for higher education, she said.
"We are losing professors, it is taking students longer to graduate, buildings that are in bad shape cannot be repaired and the universities are unable to provide pay increases to faculty and staff," she said.
Some University officials are also wary of the bill.
Steve Munch, student body president, said he heard about the negative effects of TABOR when he spoke with the student body president of the University of Colorado at the Big 12 Student Government Conference in October.
"I hope it doesn't happen because it would mean bad things for KU and higher education as a whole," Munch said.
Colorado governor Bill Owens was a big supporter of TABOR, but he recently suggested Colorado take a five-year break from it because of its effects on public services — including higher education. Hedges said.
Owens also suggested there be some changes to how TABOR is implemented when it is reinstated, Hedges said.
Owens asked a conference committee to complete work on the Economic Recovery Act and planned to send it to voters in November, according to an article published March 29 in the Fort Morgan Times.
Hedges said that while she thinks the five-year hiatus from TABOR is a positive step, she does not believe it will solve the problem.
"We know that most of the problems stem from the inflation plus population formula," she said. "It didn't work ten years ago, it isn't working now, and we have no reason to believe it will be any different in ten years."
Although the Kansas TABOR bill is modeled off of Colorado's, Landwehr said it has been improved upon and shouldn't be compared to Colorado's TABOR.
The Kansas TABOR bill would have three major differences: An emergency fund, a budget stabilization fund, and it would ease the ratchet-down effect, which would allow TABOR to remain at the pre-erecession line if there was a recession.
She said about 17 other states had introduced similar amendments. It was introduced in New York last week.
A two-thirds majority vote in both the House and Senate is required before the bill could be placed on a ballot.
Landwehr said she expected the House to vote on it next year, but that the Senate is not interested in the issue.

Doors
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
"There are a lot of rooms, a lot of people going in and out." Picking said. "When the door's closed, that's a real pain."
Lab doors are open all the time in David Brooks' hallway, sometimes including his own, he said.
"I have a common-use lab, so there are always people coming in and out," Brooks, technical director for a biology lab in Malott, said. "My preference would be to keep it closed, but that doesn't always happen."
The doors on the fifth floor of Malott are always closed at 7
"I It's not just fire protection.It's not just health regulations.It's only to protect the students."
Bob Rombach Fire marshall for the University of Kansas
a. m. when Brooks arrives at work, but they often get propped open as the day goes on, he said.
Some labs are used by undergraduate students who don't have keys, making it an inconvenience to leave the door closed all the time, he said.
The business managers in the chemistry and biology departments work closely to monitor the problem with the fire marshal and receive the citations.
"In chemistry, I go around and shut lab doors if they're open," Susan Teague, business manager for the chemistry department said.
Kandi White, business manager for the biology department,
has sent out e-mails to solve the problem. But still lab instructors make rationalizations to keep the doors open.
"They've got lab coats and chemicals, and it's a hindrance to open the door," she said.
**The new policy**
Inspectors usually issue citations in the buildings annually. Haworth was inspected last week, but the results are not yet available. The inspections for Malott are slated to occur sometime later this month.
With the state fire marshal's new policy, an individual inspector is now compelled by law to report all repeat violations to the Kansas state fire marshal, said Larry Laubhan, fire protection specialist with the Kansas state fire marshal.
Violators will receive warning letters after the second consecutive violation, and then will be issued fines the third year. Rombach plans to send out a warning letter for each repeated violation in Malott and Haworth, if he finds them this year and institute fines the year after that.
The chancellor's office would be responsible for paying the fines or could pass along the fines to individual departments, Laubhan said.
The exact amount of the fine for a propped open door would be determined by Laubhan's superiors after the inspector passed the fine along to the state fire marshal, he said, but the fine could go all the way up to $1,000.
On top of that, a policy written in 2000 in conjunction with the provost's office holds those who disobey fire codes criminally liable for anything that might result from those codes being disobeyed, Rombach said.
"It's not just fire protection. It's not just health regulations. It's only to protect the students," he said.
All over campus, people
In a beginning physics lab, you'd have to throw a cigarette at a pile of papers to start a fire. They don't even have computers in there."
Andrew Pirotte Joplin, Mo., junior
wedge fire-rated doors open. but Rombach is choosing to focus on labs in Haworth and Malott. Fire-rated doors include those in some professors' offices and classrooms in Wesco Hall, as well as in every other building on campus.
Rombach said if a door had a closer on the top and a steel plate on the bottom, it was probably fire-rated.
"Malott and Haworth, those are big buildings with a lot of people in them," he said. "They also work with a lot of harmful chemicals."
The age of the buildings also plays a role, he said. Newer buildings, like the new structural biology lab on West Campus, are built with more mechanisms for keeping doors closed.
Fumes wafting through the halls in Haworth and Malott have the potential to make people in the hallways sick if they are exposed to them too long, he said.
Mike Russell, director of environmental health and safety for the University, agrees that open lab doors are a safety hazard, and he doesn't understand why the professors won't close the doors to the labs.
"It's sure not out of ignorance," he said. "It gets addressed, and people get told. It's just a matter of people making it a priority."
To students like Andrew Pirotte, Joplin, Mo., junior, keeping the doors open may not be so bad.
"It's pretty safe," said the microbiology student. "They don't let us mess around too much. Every time there's something dangerous, they monitor us pretty closely."
What students think
Pirote said it depended on the lab. He said labs with open flames were one thing, but some labs didn't pose much of a fire hazard at all.
"In a beginning physics lab, you'd have to throw a cigarette at a pile of papers to start a fire," he said. "They don't even have computers in there."
Travis Grebenick, Omaha, Neb., senior, said the doors should be closed, if there were a legitimate safety concern.
"If it's the difference between saving people's lives, it's worth an extra couple seconds to drop whatever you're carrying and make sure the door is closed behind you," the biology student said.
Adding it up
The fire marshal has offered other options, such as magnets that would automatically close the doors in case of a fire, but she said that was not economically feasible for the department, as the magnets would cost about $1,000 for each door. But that would only solve the fire safety problem, Rombach said, not the environmental and safety issues.
The potential solutions are often expensive and are difficult to achieve,he said.
But the fines could soon start to add up.
For 2004, the University could have faced up to $103,000 in fines from door-related fire code violations, if the current system had been in place then.
"You don't want the chancellor to get that letter," Rombach said.

A mourner prepares to spend the night along Via della Conciliazione towards Saint Peter's Square, in background, waiting to enter the Basilica where the body of the Pope lies in state at the Vatican today. Italy appealed to pilgrims to stay away from central Rome yesterday, saying it was already saturated with millions of faithful desperate to see Pope John Paul II's body ahead of tomorrow's funeral.
Police step in to quell crowd
BY VICTOR L. SIMPSON THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
VATICAN CITY — After electronic highway signs and cell phone text messages failed to stanch the flow of pilgrims, police stepped in yesterday to turn back mourners hoping to join the 24-hour line to view the body of Pope John Paul II, on a day that brought almost 1 million people to the Vatican.
Using a special entrance for VIPs, President Bush viewed the body with his wife, Laura, along with his father, former President Clinton and Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, shortly after the U.S. delegation reached Rome.
The crowd control problems developed hours after the College of Cardinals set April 18 as the start of its conclave in the Sistine Chapel to choose a successor to John Paul.
Seeking to clear the basilica by this evening so the Vatican could prepare for John Paul's funeral the following day, police announced they were closing the line at 10 p.m. Text messages were sent over Italian cellular phone lines.
It took more than an hour after the deadline to set up the barricades and establish the cutoff point.

DELTA FORCE
ELINE JARDON STEPHANIE KRAMER opinion@kansan.com
PAGE 5A
We will not be stalking you. It is our first campaign promise this spring and we refuse to compromise it. Delta Force respects your right to walk and we encourage you to stop by our table on Wesco Beach to pick up information or a button. Otherwise, please enjoy your trip to class, work or wherever without being followed by yet another politician with paper.
Delta Force won't stalk,will invoke solid platform
Delta Force is a progressive coalition of students dedicated to proactive change. In our nine years of experience working on various activist issues, we have brought campus things from Fall Break and STANCE, an independent newspaper to freshman representation in Senate and a screening of "Fahrenheit 9/11." This spring, Delta Force stays true to our activist core and encourages you to consider the following:
- Delta Force is not afraid of long-term commitment. We recognize that the six platform issues we present require more dedication than an hour's work and we are willing to invest the time and energy to get the job done right. Merely throwing money at programs has never proven effective, and Delta Force is prepared to establish the partnerships, do the research and devote the time to ensure our projects' success.
- $\diamond$ Delta Force recognizes more levels of government than Student Senate influence students' lives — local, state and national policies all contribute. Local issues, such as noise ordinances and the smoking ban affect students' daily lives. Questions of funding higher education at the state and national levels further concern students. Student Senate is charged with representing student interests to these various levels of government, and Delta Force has made it a high priority.
- Delta Force brings real issues, real students and real change to campus. Issues that directly influence student life compose our platform, and we do not restrict ourselves to what is easy. Our coalition members are involved in various campus organizations and represent a wide variety of KU experiences. We advocate substantial change, such as changing the culture of false fire alarms and restoring one of KU's most unique programs, KU Info, rather than superficial modifications. Our commitment to real change is evident in our activist activities and platform, as well as our female president-vice president duo.
- Student Senate is in danger of becoming stagnant. We need fresh leadership that is willing to take risks and challenge the status quo — that leadership is Delta Force. Log on and vote online April 13-14 to send everyone on this campus a clear message: IT'S TIME FOR A CHANGE!
- KU is not one community with one voice. Delta Force recognizes each student is a member of multiple communities with various needs. When these differences are not acknowledged, "one-size-fits-all" policies and programs are created that do not serve anyone adequately. We will work to empower students to be their own voices in order to appropriately address student needs and concerns.
- The time for talk is over. People have always hated parking. It's time for a change. Students are deprived of quality sexual health care. It's time for a change. People hate false fire alarms. It's time for a change. Multicultural organizations on campus are forced to spend too much time fundraising instead of working on outreach. It's time for a change. Students' presence in Topeka is weak. It's time for a change.
- Jardon is a Overland Park sophomore in secondary English education. Craig is an Edmond, Okla., in economics and English creative writing. Jardon and Craig are the presidential and vice-presidential candidate for Delta Force, respectively.

KUnited demonstrates experience, leadership
KUNITED
NICK STERNER
MARYNELL JONES
opinion@kansan.com
KUnited epitomizes accountability and experience. Over the past three years, we have followed through on our platform issues. When KUnited puts an issue on its platform, you can be sure of two things: It will be relevant to all University of Kansas students and we will work relentlessly to get that issue accomplished.
KUnited has more experience than any other coalition. KUnited has 27 returning senators, including Nick Sterman and Marynell Jones, the presidential and vice-presidential candidates. Students deserve student leaders who have experience in Student Senate and the knowledge on how to accomplish goals; not just come up with them.
Our proven leadership is why you should vote KUnited next Wednesday and Thursday, April 13 and 14.
Over the past three years, KUnited has brought big changes to this University.
A new Multicultural Resource Center which will break ground this fall, an expansion to the Student Recreation Center, a Tuition Advisory Committee and wireless internet are among the largest.
KUnited also has a track record of accomplishing issues on our opposition's platform. If we see a good idea and know that it is not being worked on during the year, KUnited will choose serving the students above petty politics. Examples of issues we have accomplished from other platforms include implementing the first Online Course Evaluations program and creating a new Sexual Assault and Prevention Coordinator position in the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center. Again, we don't just come up with ideas; we know how to achieve results.
These were all projects in which KUnited promised something and followed through. KUnited is dedicated to finishing the initiatives we have already begun. If elected again, we will be able to continue building upon these projects for you, projects that bring about significant change and require more than just one year to accomplish.
campaign, we are prepared to continue the tradition of excellence set forth by the past three years. We understand that if we're willing to take on the responsibility for student office, we are committing ourselves to follow through on our promises to you.
This year, KUnited is working to bring you the following
- Self-defense program. In a time where many students do not feel comfortable walking alone, KUnited wants to implement this program to help foster awareness and provide training for students who do not feel safe. KUnited has always made safety a priority and this is one more step in protecting the students at KU.
KUnited will work to eliminate all fees associated with graduating. KUnited believes that services which help to further student's future education and careers should not come at a cost. We would like transcripts and the services provided by University Career Center to be provided free to all students.
These are among many important issues, which are on KUNited's platform.
As KUnited enters its fourth Student Senate
Don't be fooled by misleading articles or quotes taken out of context. Sometimes we work on issues completely on our own to achieve results. Other times, we help ensure certain projects are accomplished by working with the appropriate University officials such as our plan to work with the Athletics Department in implementing online sports ticket redemption. Bottom line: No major University initiatives can be accomplished without strong student leadership.
Vote on April 13-14 online, through the KYou Portal. KUnited's history is proof that we can put our actions behind our words. Visit our Web site for more information and to see a list of our candidates at www.ku.edu/~kunited. Next Wednesday and Thursday, show your support for KUnited. And remember: When you vote, vote for experience and accountability. Vote KUnited.

DENNIS CHANAY opinion@kansan.com
Help change ineffective Senate culture
Hello, my name is Dennis Chanay and I would like to be your next student body president. As a candidate, I am asking for your vote for three reasons: I would like to build a more diverse Student Senate, a more open senate and a pro-student Senate. When I first joined Senate I knew about as much as the average student. Now that I've seen it from the inside, I'd like to share with you a few facts.
Fact 1: You pay almost $600 in student fees to Senate every year.
Fact 3: 81 percent of Senate is controlled by one party; KUNited.
Fact 2: Less than 15 percent of students vote for their next Student body president.
This kind of Senate kills fresh ideas, stifes participation, and trivializes your $600 payment.
Here are a few facts about the party that controls more than 80 percent of Senate:

Fact 1: KUnited leadership publicly supported the $13 million per year CLAS tuition increase Source: University of Illinois Statistics Office 02-04-2024
Source: *Laurence Journal World*, Oct. 21, 2004
Fact 2: Five of their eight platform issues are already being enacted by various University departments, without the help of KUnited. Yet they still claim credit for the ideas.
Fact 3. Of the remaining three, one has been asked for twice by the Kansas Union and denied both times by the parking department. Another promises that Senate will pick up the bill on transcript services, with student fees. The only remaining issue is the funding of a windmill in central Kansas.
Source: The University Daily Kansan, April 5. 2005.
We wish we were making this up, but it isn't that surprising considering KUnited is the same coalition that brought students such failed projects as Yellowbike and Jaywalk. For instance, the fee you pay to fund lighting and safety phones on campus is being funneled into Jaywalk, a pet project and failing program. Such a misuse of fees puts students at risk.
I'm asking for your support of Student Voice so we can bring a fresh attitude to student politics. Here are some of the services we wish to bring you.
$\diamond$ Expansion of wireless hotspots to Daisy Hill and GSP/Corbin, Kansas State, Missouri and Bucknell are all ranked in the top 60 most wireless campuses in the nation. KU isn't even ranked. We have $400,000 that could be used to fund Internet upgrades and enhancements. It's time to move forward to the 21st Century. Source: Intel's Top 100.
- Protection from unnecessary tuition increases and a dedication to weeding out useless programs and fees
- Chipotle in the Undergrouna.
- A reformed bus system, so you don't have to wait 20 minutes to have four buses show up at once.
- Chipotle in the Underground
- An open student government in which all students can present ideas to make campus a better place, instead of a small group of senators.
This year, Student Voice is running an executive board of seven members, including President and Vice President. This strategy is meant to provide balance to senate. By simply holding Executive Staff positions, we will be forced to work with other parties and other parties will be forced to work with us. Everyone's ideas will be considered.
When you vote for Dennis Chanay, Sara Garlick and Student Voice on April 13-14 you will be voting for fundamental change in Student Senate; a coalition that isn't afraid to work for students, stand up to the administration and think outside the box.
- Chanay is Paola freshman in political science. He is the presidential candidate for Student Voice.

I used to be proud that I went to the University of Kansas because it was

Reporter complies gets early release
PROVIDENCE, R.I. — A federal judge yesterday granted a television reporter early release from the home-confinement sentence he was serving for failing to disclose the source of a videotape that showed a city official taking a cash bribe.
U. S. District Court Judge Ernest Torres found that Taricani had complied with all the conditions of the home confinement. The order frees Taricani from probation or any further court supervision.
Jim Taricani, who works for the NBC affiliate WJAR-TV, was originally scheduled to be released Saturday, four months after he was held in criminal contempt for failing to disclose the source of the video.
Taricani is among a small but growing number of reporters who have became ennared in the legal system for defying judicial demands
to disclose where they got information. At least 16 reporters and 14 news organizations are involved in legal fights.

SRINAGAR, India — Two gunmen attacked a government tourism complex yesterday on the eve of the first bus service across divided Kashmir in nearly six decades, but the waiting passengers escaped unharmed and both India and Pakistan vowed the buses would run as planned.
Authorities said the two suspected Islamic militants died in a gunbattle with Indian security forces and six people were reported injured in the clash, which set off a fire that destroyed the main building along with historic documents and photographs of the divided Himalayan territory.

Go fly a kite
Stepbanie Farley/KANSAN
Sean Burch, Wichita sophomore, tries out his power kite Monday afternoon on the field beside Watkins Memorial Health Center. "I like the thought of flying, and this is the closest thing I can get," he said. Power kiting is different from regular kiting, because the person has to hold on to the kite at both ends.
ART
Artists look for creative work

While Adrianne Meckel progressed through her art education, her grandfather encouraged her to go a different route.
"My grandpa always wanted me to take bookkeeping or accounting," the Payette, Idaho graduate student said.
Beth Sarver, Kansas City, Kan., nontraditional student, scrapes plaster from her wax mold, which will then be used to make a bronze sculpture tentatively called "Autumn Wednesday Afternoon," in the base-ment of the Art and Design Building. She is teaching art to children, has a studio in Kansas City, Kan., has her own T-shirt business and will soon go international.
Because of his volatile farming career, her grandfather wanted Meckel to pursue a career with a steady income, she said.
Despite kind advice from relatives and the image of starving artists waiting tables at a greasy spoon for the rest of their lives, Meckel and her fellow art majors are heading into the art world to find a living.
"I'm a recent retiree from the restaurant industry," Beth Sarver, a nontraditional student from Kansas City, Kan., said.
Sarver owns Human Revolution Clothing Company, a T-shirt company that was an offshoot of her performance art.
She made and wore shirts for her art with slogans like "Pray for a secular government" or "My religion is very simple. My religion is kindness."
She decided to sell them after people started to ask where they could buy the shirts that she was wearing.
“It’s basically me creating a job where I can make money.” Sarver said. “It’s something that is in line with my ethical and moral self.”
About 250 shirts have been sold since March 15. she said.
Everyone here is working toward the same goal: Making art, Meckel said.
Getting it on the wall
"But as far as work goes, everyone has different professional aspirations," she said.
If an artist wants to get their work displayed in a gallery, they have to be professional, said Jill Kleinhans, owner of the Olive Art and Supply, 15 E. Eighth St.
Kleinhans recommends that an artist puts together an artist packet to submit to galleries.
An artist packet can include an artistic statement, press clippings, an autobiography and slides of their work.
People who just walk in with actual work don't get displayed, Kleinhans said.
A lot of getting work displayed and sold is networking, advertising and looking out for open calls for work, Meckel said.
"If making and selling your work is your living, that's something you have to be on top of," Meckel said.
A different way artists are getting their names out there and making revenue is by making stickers, cards and T-shirts similar to how a band works to get its name out, Kleinhans said.
Also a thick skin is needed in the art world to face rejection
"We simply have a letter and
"I if making and selling your work is your living, that's something you have to be on top of."
Adrianne Mickel Payette, Idaho, graduate student
a lot of people want more feedback than that, but that's not our job," Kleinhans said. "I'm sure people get offended all the time. You got to let go of your feelings, you can't be offended. It's simply business."
Getting the job
While some artists pursue a life where there isn't a paycheck every two weeks, Kelly Sands, Alamogordo, N.M., junior,
wants a job on the coast.
As an illustration major, building a portfolio of work is necessary to get an internship or a job
sary to get an internship or a job. "There are people who don't have a degree and have jobs because they have an amazing portfolio," Sands said.
While there are opportunities to freelance, most illustrators launch their careers working at a company or a magazine, Sands said.
Meckel found her calling as an art teacher while working on her undergraduate degree.
In an art history class she had to do a presentation on a self chosen topic. During her presentation of Christ Pantocrator, a Byzantine era monastery, she knew teaching was her career path.
"I just kind of came to life while doing it," Meckel said. "Showing something new to people is something I am comfortable with."

Kansas pummels Wichita State, 13-6 crowd packs ballpark
EriP Droste/KANSAN
Junior center fielder Gus Milner had a career game last night as Kansas pounded Wichita State, 13-6.
Fueled by a season-high 1,322 fans in Hoglund Ballpark, Milner led the Jayhawks on a home run binge. Kansas hit three homers, including two by Milner. His two three-run hits paced the Jayhawkes, who banged out 16 hits. Milner finished the game 4-of-5 with six RBI.
Kansas coach Ritch Price said Milner's performance was one to remember.
"I think it's one of the best games anyone's had since I've been here," Price said.
Milner said he was proud of his big night.
"There's nothing really wrong with a 4-for-5 day and a couple of bombs." Milner said.
Milner's first hit came in the third inning with the Jayhawks leading 1-0. Following an RBI single by junior right fielder A.J. Van Slyke, Milner homered and gave Kansas a 5-0 lead.
It was kind of though coming off the bench on a chilly night like this. I was able to warm up a little bit before I went in the game, and I just put a good swing on the
pitch."
Andy Scholl Senior infielder
Gus Milner, junior center fielder, hits a home run in the bottom of the second inning in last night's 13-6 Kansas victory against Wichita State at Hoglund Ballpark. Milner hit another home run in the bottom of the seventh inning, which went at least 400 feet. He has hit five home runs this season.
After the Shockers pulled to within one run in the fifth inning, senior Andy Scholl hit Kansas' second homer of the game. The three-run hit helped the Jayhawks regain momentum and put the game out of reach.
"It was kind of tough coming off the bench on a chilly night like this," Scholl said. "I was able to warm up a little bit before I went in the game, and I just put a good swing on the pitch."
Price said he was pleased with the offense overall.
Price said he was pleased with the offense overall.
"I thought the last two or three weeks we had swung the bats really well," Price said. "You come into a game like this against somebody that was in the top 25 and you know you'll have to score at least seven runs to win the game."
Wichita State's pitching was ineffective all night. Freshman starter Max Hutson was knocked around early, allowing five earned runs in 2 1/3 innings before being pulled from the game. The Shockers threw four pitches at the Jahawks during the night.
In contrast, Kansas starting pitcher Sean Land pitched two strong innings in his first start since being relegated to the bullpen for last weekend's series at Texas A&M. He struck out three while allowing three hits. He improved his record to 3-2 on the season with the victory.
The Jayhawk pitching staff as a whole was busy. As planned, Price used seven pitchers who combined and allowed six runs on 11 hits. The staff
did its job, giving the Jayhawks a chance to win the game.
"I thought overall we were effective," Price said. "I was a little disappointed that we didn't throw a few more strikes and we let them back in the ball game. Overall I thought the staff was effective."

Kansas wins first battle for state supremacy
Back in 1989, a man named Lew Perkins was the athletics director at Wichita State, and Bob Frederick was the athletics director at Kansas.
Wichita State's baseball program was about to win its first and only College World Series, after missing on its previous attempt the year before.
Kansas baseball was about to conclude a 32-35 season, 8-16 in the Big Eight. The Kansas Athletics Department was wrapping up a decade in which two programs — football and basketball — were in major trouble with the NCAA.
Fast-forward 16 years. Perkins is at Kansas leading a department that hasn't faced any trouble since.
During that period of time, though, Jayhawk baseball has had limited success against the Shockers. With only 11 victories in 24 attempts, it's fair to say that Wichita State has dominated most of the series.
During the last 10 years, Kansas managed just five victories in the series.
Last night's 13-6 victory against the Shockers may have proven that Kansas has turned a corner in this series. Coach Ritch Price showed he thought his teams were ready to take on the state's premier college baseball power when he scheduled the team for four games, instead of the two games that the teams have historically played.
"It's about in-state recruiting rights and bragging rights and direction of programs," Price said. "It's really crucial that when you go head-to-head, you play well."
Kansas' previous victories against Wichita State are already producing some successes for Kansas. Junior centerfielder Gus Milner was recruited by both Kansas and Wichita State.
"They turned Gus Milner down. It was us and them and I made a better offer," Price said.
Milner went 4-5 with six RBI. He managed two home runs, one of which left the park and still may not have hit the ground. Price said that last night's victory was a chance for Milner to get even.
"I definitely had personal incentive to do a little better." Milner said.
Wichita State and Kansas also both recruited Damon Sublette, freshman second baseman. He ended up contributing three hits in five at-bats for Wichita State.
Kansas is fortunate to have a team like Wichita State to play in between conference matches, as the talent is no less than that of a Big 12 team.
That's important because Kansas baseball is beginning to show signs of competition in the Big 12 after two seasons of simply hanging around. Last year Kansas was just 7-19 in conference, 9-18 the year before.

Practice earns Mangino's nod

Coach evaluating Jayhawks' options on quarterback position
Kansas coach Mark Mangino called yesterday's practice the team's best of the spring.
The quarterback position saw some changes, as freshman Marcus Herford practiced as a wide receiver. Herford made some spectacular catches at yesterday's practice, including a catch of more than forty yards. He scampered until he was brought down at the five-vard line.
Mangino said he was especially pleased with the offense, as he said he felt the light was coming on.
"We haven't completely divorced him from the quarterback position," Mangino said.
"He (freshman Marcus Herford) is the best athlete we have had at receiver since I have been here."

"We had to look at where does he best help our team for this season. He's not quite ready yet to be the quarterback for us."

downfield, turning a short gain into a big one.
"We know this—that he is an awfully talented player and receiver," Mangino said. "I'll tell you this, as far as raw talent, Charles Gordon notwithstanding, he is the best athlete we have had at receiver since I have been here."
While he has worked at wide receiver for just a few days now, he is quickly adapting to the position. Mangino said.
Junior wide receiver Dominic Roux loses control of the ball during a practice drill yesterday afternoon. The football conducted their second open practice at the football practice fields behind Anschutz Sports Pavilion.
"It just a matter of him learning and getting comfortable, but he is a very good athlete, he has an outstanding work ethic, and he certainly is going to be a factor for us." Mangino said.
Stephanie Farley/KANSAN
Mangino said he would try to find a place for Herford's talent on the field, even if it was not at quarterback.
he doesn't care, he just wants to play. Right now he is a lot more comfortable at the receiver position than he is at quarterback."
The team's quarterbacks have also been happy with Herford's play at wide receiver.

Missed opportunities highlighted Kansas' 6-1 loss to Tulsa, at the Robinson Courts, yesterday.
Freshman Lauren Hommell hits a forehand shot during her single match yesterday at Robinson Courts. Hommell lost in three sets, 5-7, 6-0, 6-1, and the team lost the match 6-1 against Tulsa.
The Jayhawks lost five of six singles matches, with freshman Stephanie Smith recording the lone victory for Kansas, knocking off Kindsay Grimes of Tulsa, 7-6, 7-6.
"I just competed as hard as I could the whole match," Smith said. The Salina native has won her last two singles matches and leads the team with 11 overall victories.
"Stephanie is a grinder," coach Amy Hall-Holt said. "I'm really happy with her performance."
Freshman Elizaveta Avdeeva, who joined the Kansas program just two weeks before the start of the spring season, fell in a straight set loss to Daniela Muscolino, 6-0, 6-2.

got a chance to talk with one of our favorite broadcasters — Verne Lundquist
He told us about his favorite college basketball venues, including Allen Fieldhouse.
I also asked Lundquist what his next golf assignment would be because I had not heard him all year long.
"My first golf tournament this year won't come until Augusta," Lundquist said.
Wow, you could do a lot worse for the first golf assignment of the year. But Lundquist is surely as good as it gets when it comes to golf.
Today, the 68th Masters Tournament begins play at Augusta National Golf Club in Augusta, Ga. This weekend, 93 players will have the opportunity to play for the coveted green jacket in the season's first major tournament event, and Phil Mickelson is ready to defend it.
Other than Lefty, the favorites this week are the rest of the Big Four: Tiger Woods, Ernie Els and the world's top player, Vijay Singh. Last year's tournament will be a tough act to follow. The lovable loser, the Chicago Cub of golf, Mickelson broke his curse and won his first major tournament title. It didn't come without drama, either. He drained an 18-foot birdie putt on the 72nd green and won the Masters by one stroke.
Mickelson is heading into the first round of a major tournament as the defending champion for the first time of his career, and he is not trying to change anything
from last year. Mickelson said that returning to the Masters this year as the defending champion would be a special feeling.
"When I walk on the premises knowing that I'll be back
every year for the rest of my career, it's a special feeling, to be part of the history," Mickelson told the Associated Press.
Ernie Els remembers the 2004 Masters. Els finished second behind Mickelson, his second second-place finish in the last five Masters. He has finished in the top 10 in the last five Masters.
Els is coming into this year's event playing some of the best golf of his career, and he is ready to win one of two majors that has eluded him. Vijay Singh, 2000 Masters champion, is playing in his first major tournament as the world's top-ranked player, and he knows it.
"I'm pretty comfortable with the position that I'm in. I should be, you know?" Singh told the Associated Press. "What could be better? I'm here at the Masters, best player in the world right now and ready to go win another one."
And then there's three-time Masters champion Tiger Woods, the best golfer in the game for the past eight years.
Woods hasn't won a major tournament since the 2002 U.S. Open Championship, and he is ready to prove to the world that his "slump" is over. The stage is set for what will be another memorable tournament at Augusta National. Verne Lundquist will be in for a real treat this year, as he is every year in Augusta. So enjoy it, Verne, and have a great call. • Hall is an Ogden, Utah junior in

Apartment M was not finished yet, however. The team took advantage of a defensive error when Acorns pitcher Josh Seiler walked a run, loading the bases.

Resort names new golf pro emeritus
WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, W.Va. — PGA Tour great Tom Watson was named yesterday as golf pro emeritus at The Greenbrier resort, a title held only by the late-Sam Snead.
"Tom will carry on the tradition of Sam Snead, promoting the golfing heritage of The Greenbrier that's now almost a hundred years old," said Ted Kleisner, the resort's president and managing director.
Watson, a Kansas City, Mo., native, first came to The Greenbrier in 1979 for the Ryder Cup matches, although the birth of his first child took him away three days before the competition was to begin. The following year, he came to the resort for a meeting with his sponsors and business associates.
Snead, known for a sweet swing that produced a record 82 victories on the PGA Tour, had a 47-year association with The Greenbrier, the last nine as pro emeritus. He died in May 2002, four days shy of his 90th birthday.
Watson was among the golfers who attended Snead's funeral in Hot Springs, Va.
"It's an honor to represent The Greenbrier in the fashion he did as golf professional emeritus," Watson said. "The Greenbrier is a truly wonderful and diverse resort, and I encourage golfers to see for themselves why that is so."
Now a regular on the Champions Tour, Watson, 55, won't be the fixture that Snead was at the resort right away.
"He'll be here as his schedule permits, and in the years that go on, it will build up," said Robert Harris, The Greenbrier's director of golf.

"He located his fastball well, and threw his offspeed pitches for strikes," Detroit's Rondell White said.
"After the third inning, he was in command," Kansas City manager Tony Pena said. "He had a great changeup, slider and curve."

When the Kansas Relays begin on April 21, the starting gun won't be the only thing that gets people's attention.
With the addition of the Gold Zone, a competition of former and current Olympic athletes, the relays are generating a buzz throughout the country and bevon.
"I've had people from Europe, Canada, Caribbean that want credentials," KU Relays director Tim Weaver said.
With the addition of Olympic stars such as Marion Jones and Maurice Green, Kansas track coach Stanley Redwine said he hopes the buzz will reach high school athletes.
"I've been talking to recruits and having them come this
weekend," Redwine said of the relays weekend. "If I were looking at schools, I would want to be a part of that weekend."
Using the relays as a recruiting tool is not a new concept. Last year, Julius Jiles, the high school MVP of the Kansas Relays, committed to Kansas after the meet. Jiles tied the Kansas Relays record for high school boys' 300-meter hurdles when he finished in 37.42 seconds.
When it comes to recruiting athletes, Weaver said that regional interest was just the tip of the iceberg.
"It improves the whole meet," Weaver said about the Gold Zone. "A couple of kids from Trinidad have registered. It's a great recruiting tool, not just in the United States but the whole world."
"T the KU relays
Shawnne Mission South High School coach Mike Naster,
was a great experience for me.I loved being around the college athletes."
Libby Harmon Sophomore pole-vauler
along with other Shawnee Mission School District coaches, rejected the invitation to compete at the relays. In an article in The Johnson County Sun, Naster criticized the University's decision to invite athletes from neighboring states instead of keening it an all-Kansas event.
Weaver said he didn't think
that the absence of athletes from the Shawnee Mission School District would hurt his recruiting.
"If they're not competing in an event, they will definitely be in the stands to watch." Weaver said.
Libby Harmon, a sophomore pole-vaulter, graduated from Shawnee Mission South. She was shocked at the negative response.
"The KU relays was a great experience for me," Harmon said. "I loved being around the college athletes."
Athletic Director Lew Perkins said he supported the relays as an element of competitive recruiting. He said felt that the relays solidified Kansas' place among elite sports schools.
"It's a national program, and this weekend will receive national attention," he said.

Baseball salaries reach record high
NEW YORK — Baseball's big money boom pushed the average salary to a record $2.6 million on opening day, and the New York Yankee' payoff of just under $200 million topped five teams combined.
Following a rare drop in 2003, the average climbed 5.9 percent to $2.63 million, according to a study by The Associated Press.

"That means we're going in the right direction." San Francisco Giants outfielder Marquis Grissom said. "When they go up, it's always good."
Three Yankees were among the top five in salary: Alex Rodriguez, at $25.7 million, was No. 1 for the fifth straight year, Derek Jeter was fourth at $19.6 million and Mike Mussina was fifth at $19 million.
San Francisco's Barry Bonds, who started the season on the disabled list following knee surgery, was second at $22 million, followed by Boston's Manny Ramirez at $19.8 million.
Yankees manager taken to hospital
NEW YORK — Playing without ailing manager Terry Francona, the Boston Red Sox rallied for five runs against Mariano Rivera in the ninth inning and beat the New York Yankees 7-3 yesterday to avoid a season-opening sweep.

Francona was taken to a hospital in the morning with tightness in his chest and awaited test results. Bench coach Brad Mills filled in for Francona.
Kurt Ohlendorf, Seattle senior, prepares to throw his frisbee at the sixth hole of the disc golf course at Centennial Park, southwest of Sixth and Iowa streets, yesterday afternoon. Ohlendorf skipped class to go to the park to play with his friends. It was his fifth time playing the sport. "We're pretty decent. We're not great," said Ohlendorf.
Yankees captain Derek Jeter left after he was hit on the helmet by a pitch in the eighth. A CT scan was normal, New York said, and he was expected to play tomorrow.

Disc golf drives students to course
The Associated Press
Lawrence park offers 18 holes for localolfers
BY CALEB REGAN

KANSAN SPORTWRITER
Editor's note: This is a regular series that profiles recreational activities in which students take part. If you hunt, fish, climb rocks, go canoeing or are an expert spelunker, The University Daily Kansan would like to share your story. Please contact Caleb Regan by calling the Kansan sports desk at 864-4858 or by e-mailing him at cregan@kansan.com.
It's always a walk in the park, no matter how a person scores or how frustrated he feels. Disc golf, which is played in Lawrence at Centennial Park, even has its own class at the University of Kansas.
Part of the appeal is the inexpensiveness of playing a round — except for the seven or eight dollars to buy a disc — and also the competitive nature of disc golf. Like its sister sport, golf golf, disc golf is a way for people to get out in the sun, improve their games and get some exercise at the same time.
Its instructor, Cody Shaffer, said enrollment for his class had steadily increased since he took over the course two years ago.
Centennial Park, located just southwest of Sixth and Iowa streets, is home to the only disc golf course in Lawrence. A second course is being built at Clinton Lake.
Shaffer said exercise was only part of the reason he enjoyed "folf," which is short for Frisbee golf.
"I wore a walking odometer one time out, and walked three and a half miles. That number can change in either direction, depending on how good or bad
you are," Shaffer said. "That's good, but even better is the feeling of improving at something, setting goals and getting better."
A disc flies into the chains and comes to rest in the basket. All 18 holes at Centennial are par-3s and are roughly 100 yards in length, depending on the pin settings, which are changed once every three or four weeks
The object of folf is to throw a Frisbee that is slightly less than one foot in diameter into a pin
that is anchored in the ground. The pin is a wide metal basket that is attached about halfway up a tall metal pole. Vertical chains are connected from a ring at the top of the pole to a point on the pole near the basket.
"Its free to play, unlike regular golf, and lots of people don't like to run or go to the gym just for the sake of exercise."
Cody Shaffer Disc golf instructor
during the season
Shaffer said he attributed the growth in popularity to both exercise and low cost.
"It's free to play, unlike regular golf, and lots of people don't like to run or go to the gym just for the sake of exercise," he said. "It gives you a reason to walk that three and a half miles."
In the first two days of disc golf class, students learn the rules and regulations. The rest is devoted to practicing technique and playing rounds at Centennial Park.
"I already played disc golf before I took the course, but the class taught me a lot about playing at Centennial. Hutchinson's course is flat relative to this one," Smith said. "The class taught me a lot about the technique of throwing uphill and downhill, and increased the distance of my drive."
Scott Smith, Hutchinson sophomore, said the class was beneficial to his game.
Centennial Park boasts holes with a wide range of distance, elevation and obstacles. Three or four holes, depending on pin placement, require players to throw downhill across streams.
"My favorite part is seeing how far I can throw it," Smith said. "When you make a good shot, it makes you feel good as you watch your game improve."

The offensive line has had some shake-ups since the last open practice, as Matt Thompson, who started the spring at center, has been moved back to his original position of right tackle. Freshman Todd Hasselhorst moved from the defensive side of the ball to take over duties at center.
Yesterday's practice was just Haselhorst's third at center. The offensive line also will likely include freshman Cesar Rodriguez and sophomores Bob Whitaker and David Ochoa in the starting lineup next season. During the scrimmage section of yesterday's practice, the team spent most of the time working the ball through the air. Running backs Clark Green and Gary Green did not run the ball very often, but both gained yards on receptions. Practice notes

"When he learns the position and understands the mechanics of snapping the ball and all those things, all those assignments, I think he is going to be pretty good," Mangino said.
Junior defensive back Greg Heaggans did not practice yesterday and Mangino confirmed that at this time he is not with the team.

The Kansas players noticed the sizable crowd, and they were grateful for the support.
"It was a great crowd," Scholl said of the 11th-biggest in Hoglund Ballpark's six-year history. "It's too bad it started to rain. It seemed like the more it came down, the more people were getting up and leaving."
With the victory, Kansas improved its record to 23-12. Wichita State fell to 23-10. The Jayhawks have now won two of their last three games against the Shockers. The two teams will tangle three more times this season. Kansas will travel to Norman, Okla., this weekend to take on the Oklahoma Sooners in a three-game Big 12 Conference series. Wichita State (23-10) will resume Missouri

It was a tumultuous 2004-2005 season for the 23-7 Kansas Jayhawks. A No.1 preseason ranking marked the first time since the Wilt Chamberlain era that a Kansas team had been predicted to be the best team in college basketball.
The team lived up to the preseason hype for most of the season. The Jajawhacks went 10-1 in the nonconference season, started out 10-0 in the Big 12 Conference and defeated No. 9 Georgia Tech and No. 8
Kentuckv.
The bomb dropped when the Jayhawks lost three straight conference games and finished the regular season 2-4.
The face of Kansas basketball also changed as seniors Wayne Simien, Keith Langford, Aaron Miles and Mike Lee concluded their Kansas career with a 64-63 loss to Bucknell in the first round of the NCAA Tournament.
Take a look as the Kansan reviews the Jayhawks' season through its ups, downs, and ultimate lows.

KANSAN SPORTWRITER
The Kansas men's basketball team has just suffered a devastating loss in the round of the NCAA Tournament.
Kansas coach Bill Self hung his head outside the team's locker room trying to stay composed while he addressed the media. Players hid themselves in lockers while they cried. They needed space to grieve.
For Simien, tournament loss doesn't overshadow career
No one talked. Everyone was still in shock from the loss to Bucknell. The few responses that players uttered were whispers or shouts of rage.
Amid the heartbreak, one player reacted to the loss differently. Senior forward Wayne Simien stood at the locker room's entrance shaking hands and discussing what had just transpired like a professional.
Deep down, the loss was killing him. He had a last second shot, from the free-throw line, that could have won the game, but it clanked off the front rim. By missing, he said he felt as though he let the team down.
He stood up straight without pain or anger in his voice.
He should have been the most upset person in the locker room, but with the help of his faith, he had learned to deal with life's setbacks.
"It was an honor to play with these guys," he said in a calm tone as he sipped on his Gatorade.
"It was a devastating loss, but it wasn't the end of the world," he said. "In the whole scheme of things it was just a basketball game."
It was no surprise that Simien was the only stable player in that post-game locker room. After all, he was the most steady player for the Jayhawks throughout the year.
By scoring 20 points and grabbing 11 rebounds a game, the Leavenworth native averaged a double-double. He was the Jayhawks' go-to guy and led the Jayhawks in scoring 20 of their 50 games. He was also the ton rebounder 23 times.
Kansas coach Bill Self said learning to play without Simien would be the most difficult part of adjusting next season.
"How do we replace 21 and 11, or whatever Wayne averaged?" Self said. "That will be very difficult to do."
The only time opponents could stop Big Dub was during late December and early January, when he missed four games with a thumb injury.
The senior recovered from his injury sooner than expected and he attributed that and his stellar play to his newfound faith.
"It helped me start playing with freedom," Simien said. "It wasn't about how many points I scored or whether we won or lost. It was just about playing as hard as I could and enjoying the game."
Staying in school was the right decision

Simien remembers playing basketball in a summer league last year with Duke senior guard J.J. Redick, Utah sophomore forward Andrew Bogut, Illinois junior
All five of them are All Americans and finalists for the Wooden Award, which is given to the country's best college player.
He said he became close with most of them, especially May, and when it was time to head back to their respective colleges Bogut told Simien that the next time they met would either be

on the court or at an awards banquet.

Simien said he thought he was joking around back then, but looking back it was a pretty good assessment.
Lately it seems like Simien is receiving awards from anyone with one to give. He was recently honored at the Kansas State Capitol and was named Big 12 Player of the year by coaches and writers.
He won the fourth annual senior CLASS award and was a finalist for the Naismith award, which was given to Bogut.
"We are all very proud of Wayne and what he has accomplished," Self said. "He had a fabulous senior year and is very deserving."
This college fame came only after he decided to stay in school for his senior season and not enter the NBA Draft.
Simien said he made the right decision to stay in school. Though he ended his college career on a sour note, he said that giving his senior speech was a moment he would not trade for anything.
By becoming a first team All-American, his jersey will be retired in Allen Fieldhouse, another perk for returning.
"That wasn't a realistic dream for me coming in," Simien said. "I'd daydreamed about it, but I never pictured it happening. But I had a great
year, and Lord willing, it happened."
Simien said he and Self discussed his the retiring of his

NIT bid next goal for coach
BY BJ RAINS
brains@kansan.com
KANSAN SPORTSWRIER
With a few weeks remaining in her first season at Kansas, coach Bonnie Henrickson received a phone call that would have shocked most Jayhawk fans before the season began.
A representative from the National Invitation Tournament told her that the Jayhawks had a good shot at being selected for this year's tournament if they could get their record to at least .500, a requirement needed to be eligible.
After Jayhawk fans endured four consecutive losing seasons and a combined record of 57-79, expectations were not high for this year's team, which ended last season on a 10-game losing streak and a 2-14 record in conference play. But Henrickson and her staff's progress with the team this year has left the possibility of the NIT within reach.
The Jayhawks were unable to get the required number of victories to compete in the NIT, finishing the season at 12-16. Still, that can't take away from the successful season that the Jayhawks had, Henrickson said.
"We're very excited about the growth and progress that we made this season," Henrickson said. "It was definitely a step in the right direction."
Success is nothing new to Henrickson, who made the postseason seven consecutive seasons at Virginia Tech and compiled a 158-62 record before leaving to become the coach at Kansas. She was the Atlantic 10
Conference Coach of the Year and a finalist for the National Coach of the Year in 1999. She averaged 23 victories per season, and won two conference championships. It's a weird feeling not playing in one of the postseason tournaments, she said.
"It was a bit difficult, as you might imagine," Henrickson said. "Usually we're preparing for the NCAA tournament once the' conference tournament ends, so that was different. We got right into recruiting and I was even able to a take a vacation. It wasn't easy, but I'm not going to sit and dwell on it and
look past the growth that we made this season."
Henrickson has some experience turning programs around. When she became Virginia Tech's coach in 1997, she had the task of rebuilding a team that finished last in the Atlantic 10 with a 10-21 record. She overcame the challenge and led the Hokies to a 22-10 record, the school's first conference title and an NCAA second-round appearance in her first season.
Coaches throughout the Big. 12 Conference already have noticed the improvement of the Jayhawks, and are ready to give Henrickson all the credit.
Kansas team from last year to this year is nothing short of phenomenal," Oklahoma Coach Sherri Coale said. "Bonnie has been able to do so much with them. She has done a remarkable job." Baylor coach K i n Mulkey
"The improvement of the
Robertson, whose team won the national championship on Tuesday, said she noticed a difference in the energy level of the Kansas players. That is a key in turning programs around, she said.
"What happens when you have a new staff is that you get a renewed sense of enthusiasm and energy from your players," Mulkey-Robertson said. "I feel like, from an outsider looking in, that is what Bonnie is getting. She is getting effort, they are executing offenses and they are really exploiting each other's individual strength. She's to be commended for the job that she has done in a short period of time."
"When we met with this group for the first time, it was very clear how much they expected to be successful," Henrickson said. "They believed that they could win, which was surprising to me after the careers they have had here."
The Jayhawks' confidence level was a big factor in Henrickson's ability to turn the team around. Soon after she was hired, she said she met with the team and was amazed by what she heard. Even after enduring losing seasons throughout their entire careers at Kansas, her players said they thought they could be successful right away, she said.
Henrickson and her team played a number of close games this season. They only had two games with first-half blowouts and were a few plays away from a number of upsets. Once

Quality coach, quality person
She received the Carol Eckman Award, given annually to a women's basketball coach who possesses Eckman's spirit, integrity and character through sportsmanship, commitment to the student-athlete, honesty, ethical behavior, courage and dedication to purpose. Eckman established the women's National Invitation Tournament and coached West Chester to the first WNIT title.
Even though the Jayhawks weren't playing in the Women's Final Four in Indianapolis last weekend, coach Bonnie Henrickson made the trip to Indiana for a good reason.
"Bonnie demonstrates a genuine dedication to her student-athletes, fellow colleagues and the game of basketball," said Women's Basketball Coaches Association CEO Beth Bass. "She is a true model of what the Carol Eckman Award symbolizes."
Henrickson was presented the award on April 3rd at the WBCA Awards Luncheon presented by State Farm and Jostens at the Indianapolis Convention Center. The luncheon was one of many events held in conjunction with the 2005 Women's Final Four.
Henrickson, who joins Marian Washington on the list of KU coaches to win the award, was nominated by a former assistant coach. She said she was shocked to hear that
she had won the award.
"I was very surprised when they called me and told me I had won," Henrickson said. "I was taken back. It's a big honor for me to accept the award, but I also accept the award on behalf of my entire staff."
Henrickson attributed the award in part to her relationship with former players and coaches, who consistently are involved with her team.
"I have a great relationship with my former players," she said. "A lot of them always want to come back and work camps or stop by and watch practice. I take pride in that."
She said the award was special to her because it was not based on victories and defeats. In fact, this is her first award that is not a direct result of her team's performance.
Other awards she has received include the Atlantic 10 Coach of the Year and a National Coach of the Year finalist in 1999.
"There are so many quality coaches out there, but there are also a number of coaches who are quality people," she said. "It's an honor to be considered as one of the coaches who is a quality person."
Henrickson will soon meet with the returning members of next year's team to start preparing for next season, one that Henrickson hopes will end with postseason competition.

Jayhawks overcome tough schedule, beat expectations
BY PAUL BRAND
pbrand@kansan.com
KANSAN SPORTWRITER
For most teams, a 12-16 record would be reason for a program to rethink its path. For the Kansas women's basketball team, the 2004-05 season marked progress in the first year of coach Bonnie Henrickson and showed some promise for the coming years.
"For the most part, we have grown a lot and we have more to grow on," junior forward Crystal Kemp said.
One of the biggest positives from this year's campaign was the eighth-place finish in the Big 12 Conference.
"We were expected to finish 11th in the Big 12," Kemp said. "So I think we did great as far as finishing eighth."
Prior to the regular season, the Jayhawks were selected to finish 11th by the league's coaches' poll, but patched together an undermanned roster to and ended with a 5-11 conference record.
Two victories each against Missouri and Colorado showed that Kansas was on its way out of the Big 12 cellar. A home upset of Nebraska, 67-53, was the final victory the year and showed the potential of the current program.
The final product that finished ahead of expectations in the league was much different from the team that opened the year with a 53-49 home loss to Texas-Arlington.
After struggling with the tough season opener, the Jayhawks notched three consecutive victories against Sacred Heart, UMKC and Denver, but still struggled to find an offensive identity.
In an in-state match-up against Washburn, the Jayhawks were dealt a stinging 62-59 defeat to the eventual Division II Champion Lady Blues and found themselves searching for any momentum.
Momentum would be difficult to find, however, in a schedule that would pit the Jayhawks against a continuous schedule of Top 25 teams.
Kansas' faced its first ranked opponent in its first road game of the season, a 62-45 defeat at then No. 18 Minnesota. Despite the setback, the smaller Kansas roster held the Golden Gophers in check for the first half before losing control after the break.
A tough road defeat did not deflate Kansas, though, but rather prepared them for the grueling road ahead in the Big
12 Conference regular season schedule.
The Jayhawks took four of their next five contests to charge into the league with a 7-4 record.
Once conference play started, the strength of the Big 12 asserted itself in the form of four consecutive defeats, three at the hands of ranked opponents. The fourth setback was a heartbreaking 62-60 loss at Texas A&M.
Even with the early problems of the difficult schedule, Henrickson remained confident in her team's development.
"We had a couple disappointing performances certainly, but I'm proud of the kids for staying off the roller coaster," Henrickson said.

Former pitcher leaves majors joins minor league same day
HOUSTON — Rick Ankiel signed a minor league contract yesterday with the St. Louis Cardinals and will work on his conversion from a pitcher to an outfielder.
Removed from the major league roster Monday, Ankiel cleared unconditional release waivers yesterday, then re-signed later in the day. The Cardinals plan to send him to their Double-A farm team in Springfield, Mo.
Ankiel will spend a few more days at the Cardinals' spring training camp in Jupiter, Fla., then plans to join the Double-A club.
The Associated Press
He decided last month to end his pitching career but the Cardinals persuaded him to play in the outfield.

jersey. They agreed it would be best to wait a few years so he could fully appreciate the celebration with his family.
Looking forward
College career now finished, Simien now looks to the future. He works out everyday at 7:30 in the morning, preparing for the NBA Draft. He has signed Lee Steinberg as his agent.
Bid Dub said he was confident that he would be a first-round selection, but understood that he needed to work on his perimeter game to excel at the next level.
"From what I've been told I'll go anywhere from as high as the fifth pick to no lower than 20th," he said. "I'll know more about it once I get to some draft camps and let some NBA teams fall in love with my game and personality."
Simien is not a fan of any NBA team and said he didn't care who drafted him as long as he was wearing a iersev next year.
Though he is excited about becoming a professional basketball player,he said he would miss the college game.
"I'm going to miss it a lot," Simien said. "I've talked to my former teammates and they all tell me the biggest difference is that the NBA really is a business venue."
Preacher wayne
As a first-round draft pick, Simien will earn millions, but he doesn't plan on retiring once he makes his money.
Anyone who listened to his senior speech knows that he also dreams of becoming a minister.
A part of him wanted to join a church right now, but he said God gave him basketball abilities to show the world first. He also indicated that he didn't need a title with a church to minister and plans to preach to his future teammates.
"Someday I would like to have my own church," he said. "That would be great. But for now, I plan on preaching in the NBA locker room, to schools and fans. Wherever I get the chance to spread the word, I will."

stretched to a 14-0 start.
The Jayhawks trailed most of its seventh game against a lightning-fast South Carolina team, but came back to win 65-60.
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 6B
The first seven games saw significant production from the KU freshmen. Russell Robinson, freshman guard, averaged almost 15 minutes and more than seven points per game. Freshman forward Darnell Jackson averaged 10 minutes and six points per game and C.J. Giles averaged eight minutes and almost four points. Each freshman forward — Alex Galindo, Giles, Jackson and Sasha Kaun — was competing not only for minutes, but also to potentially take the starting position occupied by walk-on junior Christian Moody.
Kansas coach Bill Self said, at that point, he just wanted to hold the team together. The Jayhawks outdid his expectations with an overtime victory against Georgia Tech on New Year's Day, their first Big 12 victory against Texas A&M and a tough road victory against Kentucky.
The freshmen's development time was cut short. They were thrust into the spotlight after All-American senior forward Wayne Simien tolge ligaments in his left thumb during the Dec. 18 victory against South Carolina that resulted in surgery and four missed games.
Kansas then had to face a tough three-game span against No. 9 Georgia Tech, a conference opener against Texas A&M and at No. 8 Kentucky without Simien.
In the Jayhawks' 65-60 victory against the Aggies, freshman forward Alex Galindo hit the game-winning shot with 40 seconds left in the game
Their first road test was against the Kentucky Wildcats in Rupp Arena. Giles started the game in place of Simien and scored eight of the Jayhawks' first 15 points. Senior guard Aaron Miles said the freshman players were the key to winning the game.
After the game, Self was ecstatic. Not only had his team improved to 11-0, but they won their first road game.
"That is the best we have played all season, practice included," Self said after the game.
Self said the victories against Georgia Tech and at Kentucky were the high points of the season.
"If you go 10-1 in the nonconference with Wayne out and you beat Georgia Tech and Kentucky, you had a great nonconference," he said.
Conference Season
Kansas narrowly defeated Iowa State on the road 71-66.
The Jayhawks struggled to match the intensity they had against Kentucky.
Then, on Jan. 19., KU players said they got lucky when guard Corey Simms missed a three-point at the buzzer that would have given Nebraska a one-point victory.
In Simien's return on Jan. 12,
"I could tell during the shootaround that we didn't have much bounce in our step," he said
After the game, Self said he knew that the lavwhaws weren't focused.
The lack of intensity carried over to the next game, a Jan. 22 match-up against Villanova in Philadelphia. Kansas' embarrassing 83-62 loss was its first of the season and its only nonconference loss. The Wildcats exposed the Jayhawks' lack of focus, their lackluster interior defense and their inability to get out to a good start early in the game.
Self said the Villanova loss had been coming.
Before the Villanova game, the Jayhawks had been winning despite not playing to their potential. They had won six of their last eight games by an average of 6.3 points, compared to their 26-point average margin of victory in the first six games.
"We put a lot of Band-Aids on our deficiencies," Self said. "Individual defensive deficiencies were camouflaged with good team defense. Our rebounding problems were camouflaged with getting a good rebound at an opportunistic time. We haven't done any of these things well, but we've been able to win games, and Villanova exposed all of them."
Bad weather forced the Jayhawks to stay an extra night in Philadelphia, which gave them time to meet as a team. The players said they did a great deal of soul searching. Sitting in their hotel rooms, they talked about how to get back to where they had been during the Kentucky game.
Kansas regrouped with easy victories against Baylor and Texas before facing Missouri on Jan. 31 in Allen Fieldhouse.
Kansas showed its first-half struggles once again, trailing 36-28 at halftime. But like they had done all season, the Jayhawks rebounded in the second half, outscoring the Tigers 45-25 in the last 20 minutes. The Jayhawks' starting five players scored all but two of the team's points as the team improved to 17-1 and 7-0 in the Big 12.
During victories against Nebraska, Kansas State and Colorado, several freshmen faded to obscurity.
Robinson played only 14 total minutes in the six games following the Villanova game. Giles, who injured his right foot in the Kentucky game, reaggravated the injury during the first Colorado game and was sidelined for six games. Jackson played sparingly.
Kaun emerged as the front-runner in the freshman battle. Kaun's 6-foot11, 235-pound frame was an inside force and absorbing the plays quickly in practice made him less of a liability on the court. During a six-game stretch, he averaged almost seven points per game.
Season-ending woes
One traveling call on Miles and a last-second three-point shot by Texas Tech sophomore forward Darryl Dora changed the direction of the jayhawks' season.
Going into the Feb. 15 match-up with Texas Tech, Kansas was 20-1 and undefeated in the Big 12 Conference.
The double overtime 80-79 loss in Lubbock, Texas, was a heartbreaker for the Jayhawks. Langford continued his game-tying antics when he forced the first overtime. Moody took it to double overtime with a tip-in with one second left in the first overtime.
With Kansas leading by two points in the second overtime and seven seconds left in the game, Miles appeared to have the game-winning rebound secured. Instead, he was called for traveling, giving the Red Raiders the ball and one last shot at the victory. Dora capitalized and the Jayhawks lost their first Big 12 game of the year.
After the game, Self said he was proud of the way the team played. He said the players fought hard and regained some of the intensity they had lost in the previous games.
The Jayhawks had four days off before their next match-up against Iowa State in Lawrence. The Jayhawks lost their second straight game in overtime, 63-61. Self said his team was unprepared and not alert. The Jayhawks also played without Moody, who developed a staph infection on his knee from a floor burn in the Texas Tech game.
Kansas had no answer for Iowa State's match-up zone and Iowa State guard Curtis Stinson, who scored a game-high 29 points. The Jayhawks were also out-rebounded and had a season-high 18 turnovers.
"That was our worst performance of the season," Langford said. "Combine that with the fact that they were tough, and that is how you lose."
Just two days later, the Jayhawks lost their third straight game when they traveled to Norman, Okla., to face the Sooners. The Jayhawks were down by as many as 19 points and rallied in the second half to close the margin to one. But for the third straight game, Kansas fell short. 71-61.
After the game, Self challenged his seniors to re-evaluate their goals for their final season in a Kansas uniform.
"I don't think it's 'the guys.' My personal opinion, I think it's the seniors." Self said after the game. "Our
team, like every team, is only as good as the seniors. When a team is playing well, usually the seniors deserve most of the credit. When teams are not playing well, seniors have to shoulder the responsibility with the coach."
The most magnified game of the season to that point was the Feb. 27 match-up against Oklahoma State. Not only was the game nationally televised, but at least a share of the Big 12 title was on the line.
Simien responded to Self's challenge, scoring a career-high 32 points and grabbing 16 rebounds in the Jayhawks' 81-79 victory.
Kansas split its final two games, prevailing against Kansas State on senior night, but suffering a 72-68 loss to Missouri. More importantly, Kansas lost Keith Langford, its second leading scorer, to a foot injury three minutes into the Missouri game.
Kansas finished its regular-season schedule 2-4 and surrendered a three-game conference lead to end up tied with Oklahoma for the Big 12 championship and headed into the Big 12 Tournament without Langford.
It ended too soon
The Jayhawks pounded the K-State Wildcats, 80-67, in their first Big 12 Tournament game.
Kansas played without Langford, who acquired a severe case of stomach flu and had to be hospitalized, for the second straight game.
A rematch with Oklahoma State awaited the Jayhawks in their second game. A second victory against the Cowboys would have put the Jayhawks in good position a top seed in the NCAA Tournament.
But the Cowboys got their revenge, winning 78-75. Langford sat on the bench, but did not suit up.
Two days later, on Selection Sunday, the Jayhawks gathered in Lew Perkins' suite in Memorial Stadium to eat barbecue and wait for their seeding. After receiving a No. 3-seed in the Syracuse regional, Self said he wasn't surprised considering the team finished the season losing three out of its last five games.
Kansas' first-round site in Oklahoma City was pleasing to the Jayhawks and the potential Sweet Sixteen match-up against Roy Williams and the North Carolina Tar Heels sparked conversation.
Kansas' first-round opponent, No. 14 Bucknell, appeared to pose a threat, but the Jayhawks didn't know just how threatening the Bucknell Bison would be.
Bucknell 64, Kansas 63
"This was a really, really good season with a really, really bad ending," Self said.

again, the players' mindset was the kev. Henrickson said.
"Their mentality coming in allowed us to go up to Minnesota and start the game on a 19-4 run." Henrickson said, referring to the Jayhawks road game of the season against the nationally-ranked Golden Gophers. "We had a couple nights where we didn't have any focus or energy, but we never played scared."
Had Kansas won close games against ranked teams Minnesota, Texas, Kansas State and Iowa State, it could have been doing the unthinkable playing in the postseason.
"Down the stretch, these kids thought they had a chance to make a run and go into the post-season as far as the NIT." Henrickson said. "We didn't sit
there and shake our heads and say the kids aren't realistic and they don't understand. We realized that if they believed they could be successful, we needed to teach them how to be successful and what it takes to be successful."
For a successful coach, enduring a season like this past one could have been tough, but Henrickson said the Jayhawks achieved the goals she set out for them before the season began. She said she set general goals for the program, not a set number of victories.
"It's hard for me to ever say we're going to lose a game before the game even starts," she said. "As far as the number of wins I thought we could get to, I really don't know. We just wanted to change the culture of the program and get better every day. We wanted to change the attitude of everyone involved, and get everyone believing in the
system and style of play that we play, and I think we did that."
Expectations are much higher for next year's team.
"We were very pleased with the amount of growth we made this season," Henrickson said. "Our players need to understand, though, that we need just as much, if not more, growth next year if we want to be successful."
The Jayhawks appear to be a team primed for success, even the possibility of postseason play. Henrickson sent her Virginia Tech teams to the postseason seven years in a row, and she looks well on her way to leading the Jayhawks there again.
The next time her phone rings in February, Henrickson hopes she will be able to accept the invitation to take her team dancing in March.
Edited by Ross Fitch
Following the 0-4 Big 12 start, back-to-back victories against Missouri and Colorado gave the team confidence and restored hope for the season.
Schedule
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 78
Eventually, the strength of schedule won out and Kansas closed out the season with a losing record. At one point, Henrickson saw an opportunity for an NIT berth.
"I think we've made progress," Henrickson said. "We went through a stretch down at the end where we felt like there's a chance for us to be in the NIT.
Even though they mounted strong performances against top conference foes Baylor and Iowa State, the Jayhawks fell short of qualifying for the tournament.
"The growth we've had this year isn't enough, obviously, because we're not postseason."
In the Big 12 tournament, Missouri spoiled a Kansas attempt to complete the three-game season sweep as the Tigers bounced the Jayhawks out of the first round. 62-57.
Henrickson said. "We don't have a winning record."
Starters were forced to log heavy minutes throughout the season. Senior guard Aquanita Burras, junior guard Erica Hallman and Kemp all ranked in the Top 10 in conference in minutes played.
Burras carried the burden of guarding some of the league's most explosive scoring guards, and developed a reputation of being one of the best defenders in the conference. The 2004-05 season marked the end of the line for Burras and Blair Waltz.
"We're losing two great players in Aquanita and Blair." Hallman said. "We're going to miss them a big deal."
Down low, the post presence
of Kemp and freshman forward Taylor McIntosh was left to battle the Big 12's best front courts. Kemp responded by leading the team in scoring and rebounding, while McIntosh proved she was a force to be reckoned with on the offensive boards. McIntosh snared an average of more than three offensive rebounds per contest, good for fifth in the Big 12
Hallman led the scoring from the outside, notching a second-best 13.1 points per game to go with five assists.
For their efforts, Hallman and Kemp were named Honorable Mention All-Big 12. The tandem was the first Kansas duo to earn All-Conference honors since the 2000-01 campaign.
Bonnie Henrickson's first year did not have a storybook ending, and the team is left with much room for improvement in the off-season.

Coalitions debate platforms
Jessica Wicks, Colorado Springs, Colo., junior, questions candidates about providing condoms to students in the student housing facilities at the informal debate on Wescoe Beach yesterday afternoon. Presidential and vice-presidential candidates from KUUnited, Delta Force and Student Voice coalitions answered student questions.
The candidates fielded questions asked mostly by students who were involved in Senate coalitions.

Candidates running for student body president and vice president participated in an informal debate vesterday on Wescoe Beach.
Blake Swenson, Topeka senior and former Delta Force presidential candidate, asked KUnited's candidates for feedback about their platform, an issue of debate among opposing candidates. Candidates have criticized it for containing issues that administrators were already working on.
Nick Sterner, KUnited presidential candidate, responded that it was important to put issues on KUnited's platform that were relevant and feasible and that it did not piggvback issues.
"People that question our platform haven't been around Senate enough," Sterner said. "We knew this was an issue that was going to be brought up, and I thought we handled it exactly the right way."
Elaine Jardon, Delta Force presidential candidate, said she was not surprised by KUnited's platform. She said this was not the first time the coalition had picked issues that were already in

Senate committee members note expelled senator absences, lack of dedication

KANSAN STAFF WRITE
After questions arose about dedication, Student Senate Executive Committee members expelled a candidate running for student body president from Senate Wednesday night at a StudEx meeting.
Dennis Chanay, presidential candidate for Student Voice and freshman senator, was expelled from Senate because he did not show a strong dedication for the future of senate, Arthur

Chanav
Jones, StudEx chairman said. Chanay said he would still run for president.
There are nine people that serve on StudEx, the five committee chairmen, the student body president and vice president and
the two University Senate Executive Committee representatives. The two members from SenEx were Nick
Sterner, presidential candidate for KUnited, and Marynell Jones, vice presidential candidate for KUnited. Arthur, who is Marynell's brother, said Sterner and Marynell did not vote because it would have been a conflict of interest. Arthur also did not vote and just ran the meeting.
Arthur said the decision was not based on political involvement.
Chanay was initially suspended from Senate because he had exceeded the number of excused absences that are allowed for senators. He appealed that suspension in front of
StudEx Wednesday night and was denied the appeal.
Arthur stressed that Chanay was expelled not only because of the absences but because he did not demonstrate to the committee that he would be able to attend future meetings.
Laura Rose Barr, chairwoman of the Multicultural Affairs Committee, and has no coalition affiliation, voted against Chanay. She said there was a lot of discussion about it, but

Group focuses on emotional wounds

For many tsunami survivors, aid came with a camouflaged uniform, steel-toed boots and a rifle over the shoulder, but for a lucky few, aid came with a bright red nose, chunky sneakers and a bubble-blower necklace.
"I always wore bubbles," said Brynn White. Overland Park sophomore. "It always broke the ice if someone was shy."
Brynn and other members and volunteers of Patch Adams' Gesundheit Institute spent spring break on a clown trip to the coast of Sri Lanka. The focus of the trip was not to heal the wounds of the people, but to heal their spirits by bringing laughter and joy to those who have lost everything.
Contributed photos
On the first day, Brynand and the rest of the group, chartered a bus and drove to refugee camps.
One of its first stops was a school for the deaf in Colombo. Some of the clown's routines involved music or other noises, which these children were not able to hear.
Volunteers overcame the sound barrier as well as the language barrier.
"Clowning is a language of its own. Kids know how to play," Brynn said.
And play they did.
One of Adams' requirements for doctors on these clown trips is to create a clown alter ego.
At each stop the group walked out fully dressed and was ready to run, play. hold and laugh with the children.
(Top) Brynn White uses her bubble blower necklace in a Sri Lankan hospital to play with a shy child. The child ran behind a door when he saw the clowns from the Gesundheit Institute. White used the bubbles to ease the child's anxiety. (Right) Brynn White and other members of the Gesundheit Institute make an unscheduled stop during their trip to Sri Lanka. The small refugee camp was happy to see the visitors and the group was more than happy to play with the kids.

Bowen White, Brynn's father, played a proctologist with a balloon-enhanced backside.
At first Bowen refused to become a clown, but after a little coercion,
he took the risk and became Dr. Jerko. Now he would never go back, he said.
Dr. Jerko is sensitive about his name constantly being mispro-
nounced. "That's Yerko, if you don't mind."

Officials from the Department of Housing are interviewing residents of Stephenson Hall to determine who will be allowed to stay in the scholarship hall in the fall. The interviews are being conducted for the first time because of complaints the department has received about hall residents' behavior. Stephenson Hall is located at 1404 Alumni Place, at the corner of 14th Street and Jayhawk Boulevard.

Stephenson residents interviewed
Bad behavior sparks first-time renewal method
BY ERIC SORRENTINO

KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Stephenson residents were required to have individual interviews with the Department of Student Housing or else they would not be allowed to live in the hall next fall.
Residents of Stephenson Scholarship Hall had to fill out more than Intent-to-Return cards to return to the hall next semester.
This is the first time the department has ever had to call an entire residence in for this type of interview, said Ken Stoner, director of student housing.
Housing officials met with Stephenson residents March 16 to discuss incidents of unacceptable behavior this semester. Interviews started last week and are scheduled until April 25.
"It's a privilege to live there, and we need to talk about the nature of that privilege and what their obligations are." Stoner said.
Stoner could not comment on specific individuals, but said the incidents entailed repetitive trashing of the facility without cleaning it up and a resident demeaning another resident.
Fifty men live at Stephenson, 1404 Alumni Place.
Stoner said he expected about 35 students to return to Stephenson next fall.
Stephenson was historically a residence known for its wit and satire, but Stoner said this was more serious an issue.
"We can all stand the satire, but when you push the envelope beyond what would be considered good fun or satirical and it becomes physically overt in some way, then I think it needs to be addressed," Stoner said.
Andrew Stangl, Wichita sophomore, said he was moving out of Stephenson next year because of
housing's requirements.
He said he was falsely accused of vandalism earlier in the semester. Stangl said about 15 members of Stephenson went to a female scholarship hall at 3 a.m. one Saturday night and sang songs outside the hall. He said the women let the members in the hall.
"I distinctly remember that I went to bed at midnight that night," Stangl said. "I had been asleep for three hours at the time they accused me."
Stangl said residents threw various objects off the fire escape this year, but he had

Editor's Note
There's no way I can start this column about this week's bite department.
"Get your Grill On." on page four, without telling you the saddest story
you will have heard in the past few weeks. Last fall, after my classes, I returned to my apartment on a sunny, 70-degree weather day. I put the finishing touches on my marinating-sirloins and my husband went outside to start the grill. A few seconds later the sliding glass doors in my kitchen opened and he reappeared looking horrified. "Someone stole our barbecue grill," he gasped.
This episode was particularly traumatic for my husband, who endures my cooking during winter in anticipation of the first decent grilling day of the year. He and my father, who even grills during snowy weather, have deep discussions on the best grilling methods, why charcoal is better than gas and if it really hurts you to grill and eat a medium-rare burger. I was not happy because it meant I was to be the lone cook until we could afford a new grill. What made the experience especially upsetting was that our neighbor 20 feet away had a much nicer grill that wasn't much heavier to lift.
To make a long story short, we're both feeling a little sentimental with such great grilling weather approaching, and I have chosen to live vicariously through you all. The mesquite-scented air, the grocery store displays and the signs hanging for end-of-the year barbecues all devour a little at my soul. And if you are the one hosting one of these get-togethers, please remember to invite your grill-lacking friends and acquaintances.

Make the best grilled eats in town and cause all your neighbors to salivate — then invite them over for dinner
Get your grill on
Photo by Kit Leffler
By Anja Winikka, Jayplaywriter
Nothing smells more like spring than a sizzling, smoking piece of meat on the grill. It's the thought of tasting that bigger-than-your-mouth bite of juicy beef, melted cheese, crisp lettuce, tomato and onion dripping with ketchup combination that stimulates taste buds and makes mouths water. It's spring and it's time to satisfy your craving. From the market to the grill, here's how to do it.
Shop the market
When shopping for steaks, Hy-Vee butcher Dan Steele suggests looking for easy-to-grill steaks like shoulder steaks (about $5 per pound), chuck eye steaks (about$ 4 per pound) and mock tender steaks (about $3.50 per pound). That's cheaper than buying a steak at a downtown restaurant and it tastes great. For hamburgers, Steele says the secret to perfection is to get a good consistency of meat and fat. He usually suggests 85 percent lean ground beef and 15 percent fat
(between $3 and$ 4 per pound). "Anything leaner and it's not worth putting on the grill because it will dry out," Steele says. Wait to put your meat packages in the shopping cart until last so that they stay as cold as possible. Be sure to bag meat packages separately so the juices don't drip into other foods and cause cross-contamination. Before you leave, load the meat inside an air-conditioned car — not the trunk — to keep the meat cool for the drive home.
Thaw your meat
Thaw meat or poultry completely before you throw it on the grill so that it cooks evenly. According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture's tips sheet for grilling, there are three ways to thaw meat: in the refrigerator, in the microwave and in cold water. The refrigerator is the safest way to thaw meat. It takes the longest but food defrosted in the refrigerator can be refrozen before or after cooking. Meat defrosted in the microwave or in
cold water should be immediately moved to the grill to protect against bacter growth. Never thaw your meat on the kitchen counter.
Prep that grill
Clean the grill before you throw the juicy piece of meat on it. Remove old or coals, if you haven't used the grill since last summer, you may need to give it a tite inspection, says Rich Bar of Lawrence Douglas County Fire Prevention Division. First, look for any hole cracks. Small holes are not a problem, says, but large holes or cracks means the grill isn't proper for grilling because could cause a fire — so throw it an Nex take a stiff wooden or steel brush and warm soapy water to clean the bowl.

made of wood and there are
hardwood charcoal and soft-
coal. Hardwood charcoal briquettes are the best because the high density of the wood greatly reduces the amount of resins present. Resins can coat meat with a dark film and cause an unpleasant flavor. These briquettes burn more evenly and produce a more uniform heat level for efficient cooking. High-quality charcoals are made from beech, maple, birch, oak and hickory woods.
Light your fire
To get that fire going, line the bowl of the grill with heavy aluminum foil, shiny side up. This will help to make cleanup easier and the foil helps reflect the heat upward. You can also use commercial sand or gravel to line the bowl, but foil is easier because when it cools off, you can just fold it up and throw it away. Next, take several sheets of newspaper and ball them up. Six or eight balls — about baseball-sized — of newspaper placed in the bottom of the cooker will help the charcoal light easily. Pile the charcoal briquettes on top, shaping them into a rough pyramid shape. Add liquid fire starter, following the instructions on the bottle. Then light the newspaper with a match or a lighter.
Grill it up
After the initial flame has died down — which takes about 20 minutes — the briquettes will have little white corners and spots on them. This means they're starting to burn. Allow the briquettes to stand like this until they have all turned white or ash

gray. Then, spread the hot charcoal evenly over the bottom of the cooker, set the grill in place and cook that meat up.

To test the doneness of small portions of meat like steaks, chops or burgers, use the following guidelines:
Well done, you
Rare: The meat gives easily when touched. No juices appear on the surface of the meat.
Medium: The meat feels firmer but slightly springy and juices begin to appear on the surface.
Well done: The meat may be covered with clear juices. It is very firm to the touch.
Resist the temptation to flip the meat too soon. For maximum juiciness, flip the meat only once.

Q&A with Bobby Flay Food Network barbeque king
Q: What should students look for in a good steak when shopping at the grocery store?
A: Steaks should have a bright red color and sufficient marbling of fat...not too much and not too little.
Q: What's a surefire marinade to use on chicken?
A: There are several marinades for chicken because it is such a wonderful canvas for flavors.
The three easy combinations are:
1. Balsamic vinegar, chopped garlic, fresh rosemary, olive oil, salt and cracked black pepper.
2. Soy sauce, lime juice, chopped garlic,
sesame oil and black pepper
3. Orange juice, lime juice, chopped red onion,
anchovies, Chile powder and chopped cilantro
Q: Can you recommend some good (and easy) seasonings to add to burgers?
A: I am a purist when it comes to adding seasonings to the meat. I just use salt and pepper. I do like to top my burgers with aged cheddar, horseradish mustard, sweet onion, lettuce and tomato.

Dedicate
your time
By Donovan Atkinson, Jayplay writer

Volunteering has positive results: personal enrichment, community improvement and a sense of well-being. But you have to get over the first step — finding something to volunteer for
As a freshman, I found myself with a lot of free time on my hands. I didn't have any of my activities from high school to fall back on for something to occupy my time. Having grown tired from boring, listless weekends, I started looking for opportunities for things to do. Fortunately, I lived in a scholarship hall with hall mates who were always volunteering their time to local causes and organizations. One weekend, we went to paint posts at Clinton Lake. We spent another weekend helping my roommate's friend put on a play at Ecumenical Christian Ministries.
Donating time to a community project was worthwhile and provided me with a way to get to know my hall mates and learn more about Lawrence. I had basically stumbled into volunteering. But if you are looking to volunteer for community service projects or causes, there are better ways to find the right project.
The Center for Community Outreach, located on the fourth level of the Kansas
Union, offers special services for students interested in volunteering. Students who are unsure of what they want to do can make use of the center's referral service, which lists more than 200 nonprofit organizations in Lawrence. CCO also plans its own events, such as the Children's Holiday Party in December, and runs 15 volunteer programs, including Jubilee Café and March's Into the Streets Week.
CCO tries to match students with programs that suit their interests. Mark Lyda, co-director and Denver senior, says that students should look for ways to use their existing skills when they volunteer, no matter how unusual the skill may seem. Lyda says that they once matched a volunteer with a hospice because the volunteer was good at analyzing statistical information.
Lyda originally became involved with CCO through its Music Mentors program, which provides private music and vocal lessons to elementary and junior high students in lower-socioeconomic
schools. As a music theory student, he had wanted to make use of his skills as a musician and contribute to the community.
Another thing to consider when looking for a volunteer program is to look at what issues arise passion, Lyda says. Gay marriage, homelessness and developmental issues all have organizations or programs students can contribute to.
But there's something to be said for trying different things. Reba Good, Overland Park junior, started volunteering by signing up for different projects with the other members of her scholarship hall. She's done a clean-up at Clinton Lake, worked on local and state campaigns and helped at Jubilee Café.
Even if you aren't sure it's in your interest area, you can sign up for anything, Good says, who is also the community service chairwoman for the All-Scholarship Hall Council. Volunteering for anything will still give you an experience that you can learn from. Also, time isn't a cause for frustration, she says. You can find time in any schedule to fit in a few moments of volunteering.
Lyda agrees. Several of CCO's programs don't require a huge amount of time commitment. A program such as Best Buddies, which pairs students with high school graduates who have developmental disabilities, requires volunteers to meet with their buddies twice a month one-on-one and once a month for a group outing. "The people organizing these programs are students," Lyda says. "They recognize that students want to make a difference but also have school schedules to consider."

To make a frame for your favorite photo start with a clear plastic frame. You can buy one for about $2 at Hobby Lobby, 1801 W. 23rd St. Spread craft glue around the edges (don't worry about getting it even) and sprinkle sand. Shake off the excess. Using a hot glue gun, glue the shells around the frame. Let dry and slide in your photo. For the perfect frame for your camping pic, use sticks and dried flowers instead.
Don't know what to do with the shells you picked up from the beach during spring break? Keep them from settling at the bottom of your closet by making your own vacation souvenirs.

Relationship
Students and teachers can be friends
Excited, Tracy Altman picks up a book for herself and her professor and heads to the checkout counter. The book was perfect and she knew her professor would love it.
Photo illustration by Kit Leffler
Students and professors can be friends despite the hierarchy of power. While some students and professors prefer to keep relationships formal, they agree that an informal friendship can be a good idea However, these friendships must be clearly defined because consequences could arise if those informal boundaries become intimate.
For Altman, Overland Park senior, being friends with her professor worked well for her. They were able to connect because of something they were both passionate about: Judaism. Altman met her Jewish-American literature teacher through the Lawrence Jewish Community Center during a brunch. Second semester of her sophomore year, Altman had her as a teacher. Even when Altman studied abroad in Israel, both kept in touch through e-mails. Altman would send pictures and frequent updates on her trip. It was also refreshing for Altman to receive academic help from her professor about transfer credits while studying abroad.
It's important for professors to be warm with students but also to keep formal relationships, Dave Frier, professor of anthropology, says. When he works closely with undergraduate students on projects, Frier makes an effort to get to know the student but is careful to leave his and his students' personal lives out of the relationship. If students do come to him with personal problems, he often times refers them to others who can better advise them.
Other students agree with keeping relationships professional with teachers. Dave Rombeck, Belle Plain senior, visits with his teachers every so often outside of class, but he likes to keep it at a working relationship. He'll ask professors a question he may have on homework, but never anything personal. Rombeck says it would be awkward to approach a professor in that way. He thinks that if a professor and student become too close, it might become hard for the student to approach the teacher about issues such as a bad test grade. It could also ruin the academic relationship if both disagree on personal issues.
It's one thing to have a friendship with a professor and another to have an intimate relationship. There are University rules for
intimate relationships between a student and teacher. Kellie Harmon, assistant ombudsperson for the Ombudsman office at the University — which facilitates conflicts that arise among students, faculty and administration — says students and professors need to strictly follow the Consenting Relations Policy. However, Harmon discourages students and professors from pursuing intimate relationships because of the power deferential. Because students are under the evaluation of their professor, they are not equal in the relationship.
The policy does not say that students and professors cannot be in a relationship, but it does state that they have to talk to their department to discuss the issue. The professor must also be removed from a position of evaluating the student on any academic level, because an intimate relationship can influence a student and professor's academic relationship.
That is why Bob Antonio, professor of sociology, stresses for individuals involved to use their best judgment in situations involving intimate relationships and friendships. Antonio thinks students and professors should set the boundaries for their friendship. He encourages professors and students to be friends because he says that you naturally make a connection to someone whom you are working with. It builds trust among students and professors and gives students a place to go when they need to talk about something. He thinks that knowing students on a more personal level helps when he's advising them on future career plans. Students have talked to him about a variety of things ranging from a breakup to dealing with AIDS.
"You can really help a person by just listening, but certain amount of caution needs to be exercised for safety of the relationship at all times," Antonio says.
Antonio has students who come by his office to tell him good news or just to say "hi" all the time. He says he loves it when students come back to visit years later as well. Recently, a student who finished her medical degree at Yale stopped by with her mom and husband just to catch up.
So, as long as a distinct line is drawn between an intimate relationship and friendship, teachers and students can be friends during and perhaps even after college.

Once a cheater...
Deep inside Alice knows her husband is cheating on her. She just chooses to deny it. He's always away for work and when he's not out of town, he's meeting clients with his cell phone turned off. Joe keeps his phone off because he's come to realize he has trouble maintaining an erection with some random woman when Alice keeps calling him. Sure, he loves Alice, but he also loves women. Plus his dad used to cheat, so he uses the excuse that it's OK to have a mistress or two.
To Have and To Hold by Jane Green is the journey of Alice and Joe. From Europe to the United States, from the city to the country, only two things remain constant — her love for him and his cheating on her. This is the story of a cheater, a wife and a mistress.

Clayton Senne and Nicole Madril
Clayton Senne and Nicole Madril, both Topeka sophomores, met more than four years ago while dating other people. They didn't actually go out until last year. Senne asked Madril out for coffee and she figured, "What the hell, why not?" They found out they both loved sushi, cooking and had the same taste in music. Senne says, "Eventually she couldn't handle being around my amazing charm and quick-wittedness without being able to call me hers!" About a month later Madril went to hear Senne's band and was blown away by his voice. Both came out of long relationships before getting together and say they know what mistakes not to make this time around. "I know I've found the man I will spend the rest of my life with — and that's exciting," Madril says.

Hello, my name is Mandy Patinkin
From *The Princess Bride* to *Dead Like Me*, this KU alumnus has proven to be one of the most versatile entertainers in show business today.
Now he returns for an evening conversation by Donovan Atkinson, Jayplay writer
He looks like your uncle. The guy-next-door type. A regular Joe you could just hang out with. Not the kind of guy who goes on swashbuckling adventures to get revenge for his father's death or who would take possession of a Muppet's favorite blanket. Not the kind of guy who can sing booming operas as well as high-toned ballads. University of Kansas alumnus Mandy Patinkin is an unassuming guy with a lot of talent.
So unassuming that you may not even be aware of the fact that you're aware of him. Patinkin was long a fixture on television as Jeffery Gieger on *Chicago Hope*, eventually winning an Emmy for his performance in 1999. And he led the ensemble cast of Showtime's *Dead Like Me*. But if you're most college students, you'd recognize Patinkin after hearing just one quote from one of his films.

But Patinkin has done more than portray a Spanish swordman with an indecipherable accent and a need to find the six-fingered man who killed his father. Patinkin has played in a wide range of roles: A selfish junk man in The Adventures of Elmo in Grouchland, a love-sick student and object of Barbra Striesand's affection in Yentl, a displaced alien cop in Alien Nation. In addition to his acting, he has also enjoyed a successful singing career, which included his one man show Dress Casual, and released seven albums.
"He's so versatile, as versatile as any performer I can think of," says Jack Wright, professor of theater and film and moderator for this Saturday's "A Conversation with Mandy Patinkin." He has such a dynamic casting range that he can play the leading man or act in character roles, Wright says.
But while Patinkin has had success in film and television, some critics have written that this one-man vaudeville act is best on the stage and that film hasn't given him great opportunities for his talents. That may be true, says Ron Willis, professor emeritus, but it doesn't loam as a real criticism. Some people are explosive on stage but come across lackluster on film, he says. Patinkin's energy still carries across, but film editing changes the dynamic that he normally has on stage. "You can see the magnetic force," says Willis, who directed Patinkin in a 1971 University Theatre production of Lysistrata. "There's such a high concentration of energy, you have a hard time taking your eyes from him."
Even when Patinkin was an undergraduate at the University he displayed the same qualities that punctuate his work. Sandy Wong, 1973 graduate, remembers that he
really got into the role of Sancho Panza for the musical Man of La Mancha. "I remember him being outstanding," she says. "I've always been in awe of his abilities."
For his production of Lysistrata, Willis wanted the set to be very close to the audience, to overwhelm them with scaffolding that went to the ceiling of the Crafton-Preyer Theatre. The actors were to come in and awe the audience, climbing the scaffolding. When Willis told the actors his plan, Patinkin had one request. "He said
A Conversation with Mandy Patinkin
Patkin, who attended the University from 1970 to 1972, will come back to campus this Saturday, April 9, for a one-night event. "A Conversation with Mandy Patkin," Moderated by Jack Wright, professor of theater and film, the event is a benefit to raise funds for the purchase of new equipment to help patrons with hearing challenges in Murphy Hall's Crafton-Preyer Theatre and for a scholarship fund for undergraduate film students. The show starts at 8 p.m. Reserved-seat tickets for "A Conversation with Mandy Patkin" are on sale in the University Theatre ticket office, (785) 864-3982, and online at kutheatre.com. Public tickets are $40, student tickets are$ 20.
'Let me be first, let me be first,' Willis says.
"He made every part his own," says Christy Brandt, who worked with Patinkin at the Creede Repertory Theatre in Creede, Colo., after he had left the University to go to Juliard. He brought something of his own to every part he took, and showed great, imagination and extraordinary talent. Brandt, a 1973 graduate, says that Patinkin was always ambitious and wanted to make it as an actor, working hard and dedicating himself to everything that he did. "Mandy needed to
be a star," Brandt says, "and once he became a star it really relaxed him."
But Patinkin's not strictly a career man. "He's not one who's had a career and no life," Brandt says. Patinkin married actress/playwright Kathryn Grody in 1980 and they have two sons, Isaac and Gideon. Grody used their experiences raising their sons for her one-woman show, A Mom's Life.
In addition to his work on stage and on the screen, Patinkin is also active politically and contributes to a number of different social causes. He also maintains a home in Creede, Colo., and still is involved with the Creede Repertory Theatre, working with the theater's board to keep things up-to-date. Brandt says that he has been helpful in keeping the theater aware of new trends in theater because of his continuing experience with modern theaters that not everyone in the small mountain town of Creede has the opportunity to find out about.
And through all of his success, Patinkin has remained a Jayhawk at heart. When he was performing his one-man show, Dress Casual, in Kansas City, Jack Wright took him a stuffed Jayhawk. Patinkin did a short version of the Rock Chalk Chant when Wright gave it to him. Patinkin has kept close to his Jayhawk roots. The Creede Repertory Theatre was founded by University graduates in 1966. When Patinkin came to campus in 2001 for an impromptu visit during one of his tours, he brought along one of his sons so he could get a look before applying to colleges. They spent a day touring campus and looking at all of the new buildings. "He was very excited to be back on campus," Wright says.

The critics weigh in on Mandy
Yentl (1983)
"A lot of the charm comes from the cheerful high energy of the actors, not only Streisand (who gives her best performance) but also Mandy Patinkin, as her long-suffering roommate, and Amy Irving, as the girl Patinkin loves and Streisand marries. There are, obviously, a lot of tricky scenes involving this triangle, but the movie handles them all with taste, tact and humor."
Roger Ebert, The Chicago Sun-Times

The Princess Bride (1987)
"Mr. Patinkin, who is particularly good, turns up to be
20th Century Fox
turns out to be
a fine swasstbuckle, albeit not a very clever one; his heroic presence is somehow only enhanced by a halfway-impenetrable Spanish accent."
— Janet Maslin, The New York Times
Dick Tracy (1990)
"The most tellingly romantic Sondheim number is "What Can You Lose" -- a duet for Madonna and the gifted Mandy Patinkin, who plays Breathless's lovesick accompanist, 88 Keys. But the song is mostly played over shots of Tracy and the Kid at a diner."
Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
CARLOS RUBIO
Dead Like Me (2003)
Showtime Networks
"And Patinkin is the anchor here, his performance a mixture of the workingman's
knowing acceptance of fate and an unbridled optimism that keeps levity alive (essential in the death game). His Rube is also a fatherly figure to George without being too sugar. He's a mentor. He's helping the new kid out – and there's much to laugh about along the way."

Misconceptions surround paganism, but followers of the religion claim it’s not as scary as it sounds.
WITCHES RITUALS SPELLS OHMY!
By Mandy Hendrix, Jayplaywriter
A small group of witches and pagans sit on the floor around a circular, wooden coffee table inside a cozy apartment in south Lawrence. They gather to ask ancient gods for personal growth and renewal in the year ahead. Decorated with dried greenery and leaves, each member sets candles in front of themselves on the table. In the middle, an antique gold pot called the "cauldron" holds dried herbs, pinecones, flowers and leaves, which are set on fire. Thick, gray smoke rises from the cauldron and emits a potent campfire smell. Other members sit near the table talking and laughing while one woman walks around the group holding a large dagger, inviting the spirits of the North, South, East and West to the ritual. She casts the circle and begins the ceremony.
There are about 20 members of the Wic-

can/Pagan Alliance at the University of Kansas. The group started in 2001 as a way for other pagans to make and meet friends. Members try to meet once a week
to talk about anything from astrology to tarot. The KU group continues to experience growth throughout the Lawrence area. The rising popularity of paganism here in Lawrence follows national statistics showing an increase in pagan worship.
In 2001, the U.S. Census Bureau reported that pagan religions accounted for about 375,000 adult Americans, up from about 28,000 adults in 1990. Paganism emerged in the United States during the 1960s when intense social change set the mood for paganism, says Tim Miller,
professor of religious studies.The 1970s saw an increased interest in feminism and environmentalism. These movements created a larger awareness of paganism
because they have similar viewpoints.
Paganism refers generally to a polytheistic religion that worships many gods and predates Judaism, Christianity and Islam. The Religious Tolerance Organization defines paganism as a
range of spiritual paths that focuses on the Earth and observes the cycles of the seasons. The religion is based on deities, symbols, rituals and other surviving components of ancient religions such as earth-based worship and ancient gods.
Pagans follow the idea of animism, the belief that spirits reside in every living
thing. Paganism also has an environmental focus. "I'm really big into believing that everything with DNA is alive. You need to respect it because everything is connected in one form or another," says Chelsea Johnson, Hutchinson senior and president of the WPA.
Paganism also has a strong feminine component that focuses on the Earth Mother, Miller says. The Earth mother has many responsibilities in paganism, such as the role of creator and sustainer of life. The religion recognizes deities of both genders while Western religions have male leaders such as Jesus and Mohammed, Miller says. Both gods and goddesses are worshiped in pagan rituals. Feminine qualities complement masculine elements.
Because pagans don't follow a specific doctrine, the religion becomes harder todefine beyond terms of respect for

nature and worship of gods and goddesses. Some people seek teachers and have a sort of apprenticeship to learn more than the basics. Most people who practice paganism, however, are either self-taught or have learned from someone close to them. "I like that I can tailor it to myself," says Anne Burton, Olathe junior and WPA member.
The lack of a definitive text or doctrine may lead to some fragmentation within paganism, but it also allows followers to adapt the religion to their beliefs and heritage. Some followers recognize Greek gods, while others worship Norse or Egyptian gods. Burton, who is of Irish background, worships Celtic gods.
The word "pagan" is derived from the Latin *paganus*, which means villager. Medieval Christians used it as a slang term. Later the word changed to mean an outsider who practiced folk religion. Little is known about ancient pagan practices because religious crusaders destroyed many of their texts. We do know that pagans in different areas practiced different rituals and that the religion was diverse, Miller says. Historically, outsiders believed pagans were witches and Satan worshipers who conducted animal sacrifices. The Salem with trials of 1692 oppressed pagans. Because there are no surviving ancient pagan texts, it's unsure whether ancient pagans worshipped Satan and performed animal sacrifices, but contemporary pagans say they detest both of these practices. In fact, pagans do not recognize the Devil; he is a Judeo-Christian creation.
Pagans celebrate the divine with rituals related to different seasons in nature. There are eight sabbats, which are the major pagan holidays. Each sabbat celebrates a different aspect of nature and the relationship between the worshiper and gods. Each sabbat occurs about every 45 days.
Imbolc is part of the pagan calendar and signifies the first growth of the new year and is meant to get pagans out of their houses and meet up. Ritual dates are determined by the seasons. Imbolc

Near the midpoint of the 45-minute ritual, each person performs a charm offering protection for his or her home. A charm is similar to what outsiders might call a spell. A pagan asks his god or goddess for a special request such as help losing weight or relieving stress in his life. Sean Manning, Overland Park junior and WPA member, describes a charm as a "prayer with glitz added to it." It's more specific than a general request although he recognizes that not all charms work. "We know that Harry Potter's not real, we don't do stuff like that and we don't think
we can," he says. "That's not what it's about."
tian thought." Charms and spells are dangerous experiments that could lead people down a non-Christian path he says.
Major religions, especially Christianity, tend to regard paganism as a false religion. "It is a deviant form of worship,
says Bill Hurlbutt, senior pastor at Christ Community Church. "We look at the first commandment and it says there should be no other gods. Anything that places itself in front of that is contrary to Chrisother's beliefs. "I don't think a supreme being needs an advertisement," Burton says.
Although Hurlbutt doesn't view paganism as a threat to Christianity, he is aware that an increasing number of Americans are becoming pagan.
Mainstream religions' evangelical missions are part of the reason some followers have turned towards paganism. Paganism is not an evangelical religion, meaning that it doesn't actively seek converts. Burton, who was baptized Christian, appreciates that pagans do not actively try to influence

Johnson says she was raised Protestant but her parents stopped going to church when she was young. She remained Christian but didn't practice or pray. Her boyfriend turned her onto Wicca, a form of paganism. She learned the basics from him and read books to round out her understanding of the religion. She says that her parents are OK with her choice to practice paganism, but she hasn't told her other relatives because they are more devout Christians and she doesn't want to offend them.
Burton was also raised in a Christian home but became disenchanted with the religion in her early teens. She says she
was looking for meaning and a relationship with the creator, which she felt she didn't find with Christianity. Manning had a less idealistic reason for converting: to impress a girl in high school that was a practicing pagan. Johnson
says that a majority of people who criticize her beliefs do so in order to convert her to Christianity. Johnson wishes that she could practice her religion peacefully without people condemning her to "the
Sabbats are the eight major pagan celebrations, which honor gods and goddess and celebrate different qualities in nature.
Samhain: Regarded as the pagan New Year, Samhain generally falls near Halloween. The festival marks the beginning of the winter months. Most pagans prefer to reflect on the past year in hopes of learning lessons and look ahead to the New Year.
Yule: Also known as the winter solstice, this festival marks the shortest day and longest night. The ritual is usually held near December 21 as pagans mediate on their hopes and aspirations for the future months. A yule log is usually burned as part of the ritual.
imbolic: Pagans celebrate the return of light and the beginning of spring. The festival usually occurs near February 2. New goals and projects are created for the upcoming year.
Lithe: Also known as Midsummer, this ritual takes place on the longest day of the year, June 21. It marks the point when crops and the goals created at earlier rituals are becoming mature and are nearing completion.
Lughnasadh: Referred to as the pagan Thənksgiving, this ritual occurs near August 1. Pagans celebrate the harvesting of crops and the end of their goals. They give thanks for the abundance of the Earth and their experiences throughout the year.
Ostara: The pagan name for spring or the vernal equinox. Usually celebrated near March 21, when day and night are equal lengths. Pagans begin to act upon the goals created at Imbolc.
Mabon: Also known as autumn equinox, this ritual is celebrated around September 21. It signifies the end of the harvest and the return to darkness, which pagans must now prepare for.
Beltane: Marks the beginning of summer and is celebrated on either April 30 or May 1, also known as May Day. The festival marks the union of the god and goddess and serves as a time for pagans to check the progress of their goals.
fiery pits of hell."
Manning had one incident with a motorist that he believes was related to his religion. He used to have a bumper sticker on his car with a drawing of a pentagram — a pagan symbol illustrated by a star inside a circle. Another driver followed him around Johnson County for about an hour, Manning says. When Manning finally got out of his car, the other man also got out and began to preach to Manning. The two exchanged angry words, but ended up leaving peacefully in their cars.
Before the ritual is over, the group connects hands and concentrates on pushing their energy through one another's hands in the circle. It's like a game of spiritual telephone. Members say they feel the energy cycle through each person about three times. After passing their energy, the group jumps around with smiles on their faces, but one guy sits quietly with a slight smile on his face. He says that he could feel the energy throughout his entire body. It felt good, he says — almost orgasmic. The group finishes the ritual and ends the night eating and drinking while engaged in friendly conversations. They won't all meet again for another 45 days.

FORMS OF PAGANISM
Like most major religions, paganism has different strands.
Heathenism: Focuses on Norse and Germanic gods and goddesses. Asatru is a popular denomination in North America. It has a list of nine noble virtues; courage, truth, honor, discipline, fidelity, hospitality, self-reliance, preservation and industriousness, which guide followers' actions and beliefs. The family structure holds great value. Most followers of this strand prefer to be called heathens rather than pagans.
Wicca: The most popular strand within paganism, this Earth-based religion relies on personal fulfilment from the development of psyche and magical abilities. Traditionally called witchcraft. Wiccans honor the god and gods as all ritual celebrations. Englishman Garrod and Grusher created modern Wicca in the 1940s. Gerusalemian Witchcraft, Celtic divines, symbols and celebrations.
Dairy: The ancient religion originated in Ice Celtic and Dark areas of Britain, Wales, Scotland and Ireland. An ancient tribe, the Valean was framed with wisteria, practices associated with herding, vulture trapping was used for the burial, which of what we now know to be intergration by modern Druids. There is a plea contest within Celtic virtues or other traits like loyalty, practice, morality and community.

My friend Andrea Briggs didn't drink until she turned 21. In high school she made her decision to wait until she was older because of the consequences it could've had on the sports she played. When Briggs, Overland Park senior, came to college she just never bothered to buy a fake ID or sneak drinks at bars.

Going out doesn't always mean getting drunk. Perhaps you need a night off from alcohol or you have a test in the morning but still feel like hanging out. As a college student you should be able to enjoy the social scene. But just because you're not 21or you don't feel like drinking, you don't have to stay in. There are other options to having fun while staying sober.
If you prepare yourself for a sober night, other factors—such as drunken friends—might not bother you as much. "You can still go out and not drink and have a blast," Briggs says. Have the bartender make up a nonalcoholic drink with some of your favorite juices or sodas. Sometimes you can even get free soda at a bar if you work the designated-driver role.
The Jazzhaus, 926/1 2 / Massachusetts St. The Gaslight Tavern and Coffeehouse,
317 N. Second St., and Henry's on Eighth, 11 E. Eighth St., are just a couple of 21 and over bars that offer music and a great atmosphere. Walking the stairs up to the Jazzhause makes you feel like you're being let into a secret club. The interior doesn't suggest anything less. Dimmed lights and circular tables adorned with glowing candles create a hipster feel. You can definitely sit here and jam with the music without any desire to drink. Sit down at a table with friends and be happy that tomorrow you'll still be able to remember the music while your friend's memories may be fuzzier.
The Gaslight and Henry's both offer coffee along with alcoholic drinks. Many nights of the week, Gaslight offers live music in its tiny quarters. The shadowy corners and red lights give the establishment a laid-back, urban-cool feeling. Henry's packs in the tables, which are perfect for socializing. The mocha latte is one of the most popular drinks among the regulars, says Jeff Otte, Topeka senior and barista at Henry's. Upstairs, it offers music and serves alcohol to the folks who need their fix. Grab a coffee from the first level and rock out upstairs with friends if your of-age.
If the bar scene just doesn't work for you, try live trivia games at 75th Street Brewery, 3512 Clinton Parkway, or The Bottleneck, 737 New Hampshire St. Every Tuesday at 10 p.m. is trivia night at 75th Street Brewery. The Bottleneck usually holds trivia night on Sundays. Players form groups and answer questions to compete for prizes. "It's an excuse to go out on a Tuesday night," says Joe Tarwa-
ter, Dodge City senior. His favorite part is the fast-paced questions mixed with loud '80s music.
Poker Pub, held at various locations including but not limited to: Johnny's Tavern, 301 N. Second St: — is a free Texas Hold 'Em poker tournament that takes place almost every night at 7 and 10 p.m. Players gamble for points instead of money so there's no chance of blowing your savings. You also get the chance to win prizes and bragging rights.
When sitting at home and watching a movie just doesn't work, check out other options around town. You'll find even more great places to spend a sober evening.

Interview Galactic
Blending old-school funk, à la The Meters and James Brown, with extended live improvisation that appeals to jazz-fusion and pop sentimentalities, New Orleans-based Galactic is a fresh melding of the old with the new. Check out the band's down-home-funky-New Orleans sound when they pass through Lawrence to play at the Granada on April 10.
The Band:
The Band:
Robert Mercurio - bass
Jeff Raines - guitar
Stanton Moore - drums
Ben Ellman - saxophone
Rich Vogel - keyboards
How did you all originally meet?
It was a five-way car accident actually. Stanton got pissed off because his drums were in the back of his car. We all exchanged names and
insurance information. No, actually we met during college. Rob and Jeff grew up in D.C., I grew up in the Midwest. We all came to New Orleans to go to school but we actually were there more for the music. We all played around town and met each other that way.
How did you come up with the name "Galactic?"
Where does "Manuel's Galactic Prophylactic" come from?
We decided it was better than the name "Galactic Prophylactic" and "Manuel's Galactic Prophylactic" which were past names of the band. We recorded a track called "Black-Eyed Pea" for the San Francisco acid-jazz label Ubiquity in '94 under the name "Galactic" for the first time. In 1994 we also hooked up with Dan Presaro with Funk-City Records and at that point we got serious about the music and changed our name permanently to Galactic.
I think it was a Saturday Night Live skit about a guy who always carried an old condom in his back pocket. I'm not sure though, that was before my time in the band.
Who are your influences?
Growing up in the Midwest I listened to classic rock, Van Halen, Zeppelin, that stuff. In high school I started looking for new sounds and really got into Miles Davis' 70s stuff — Jack Johnson, On the Corner — those albums were all really great. I also really got into old school funk and groove, like the Meters, James Brown and P-Funk. I have a Deep Purple song as my ringtone so it's all come full circle.
What are you listening to right now?
What are you listening to right now? I'm listening to hip-hop right now. We're touring with Media Darling, a hip-hop group out of New Orleans. We look around for artists doing something different and like to incorporate what they are doing with our shows.
Do you have any pet peeves when you are on the road?
I really can't think of anything that pisses me off right now. Ever since we've got out of a van and into a bus life has been good.
We all do. There's 10 of us on the bus. Tour buses have 12 bunks. When we have 12 people on the bus there's bags everywhere and there's no place to sit down. We just had the longest break we've had in our band history—two months—and everyone is ready to be out on the road, so
Fill in the blank: Nothing's quite as good as ___.
A hotel room. I just got finished talking about how nice it is to have a bus to travel on but after you've been on the road with ten guys for a while it's nice to have a place to stay away from the bus.
If you were locked in room and forced to watch old rums of either Family Ties or Charles in Charge, which one would you watch and why?
Family Ties only because I think Justine Bateman was kind of hot back then.
Do you have any new partnerships with other bands planned for this year or anything new for 2005?
We're going to have a late night set at Bonnaroo with the Dirty Dozen Brass Horns and I think Leo Nocentelli, founding member of The Meters, will be come up on stage with us, which will be really cool. We're doing some up-coming shows with Toots and the Maytalls and Maceo Parker. We've been at festivals with these guys before but we've never been on the same bill so we're really looking forward to that. We're also pretty seriously going to work on getting a record out sometime in the late fall.

Europe as early as the eighth century. The word "vodka" comes from the Russian word "vode," meaning water.
Because the production of the alcohol was not as refined as it is today, people would often add fruit flavors, herbs or spices to improve the taste. The Vodka Sour is a blend of sweet and sour. If you want to give it even better flavor, add some grenadine and garnish with a lemon wedge and cherry. It costs about $4.
Interview Something for Rockets
Ashley Michaels
By Dave Ruigh, Jayplay music reviewer
Currently on their first national headlining tour, Los Angeles by way of New York scenetesters. Something For Rockets has already had some mainstream success, creating buzz at MTV and the Los Angeles Times. Front man Rami Perlman checked in from New York City before playing the famed Mercury Lounge to a crowd that included friends and family in his former city. Something For Rockets will bring their sweaty, danceable rock to the Replay Lounge on April 12.

What other bands
We shot some stuff for MTV while they were there. We interviewed the Future-heads for that. We saw the United States of Electronica, Hot Hot Heat, Elvis Costello — it was a real mix.
Mainly Rufus Wainwright and Julian Casanabas of The Strokes — that whole crooning thing. My goal is to be as deep and filthy as possible. Smooth and deep for a sex effect.
I would say it comes from a lot of places.
Stone Rose, New Order — that whole Manchester thing. We all listen to Bowie.
We listen to everything.
Who are some of the bands have influenced SFR?
You guys just played South by Southwest (The annual indie-rock blowout in Austin, Texas). How was it?
You have a very distinct voice. Who's influenced how you sing?
It was awesome. The only way to describe it is like band camp, but it's also a battle of the bands. Overall it was amazing: rock'n'roll from the time you wake up till the time you go to bed, if you go to bed.
What other bands did you get to see?
Where does your lyrical inspiration come from? I noticed you sing a lot about sex.
I wrote our record like I thought Brett Easton Ellis (author of American Psycho) would write songs if he were in a band. I was writing as a character.
You use the phrase "keep it sexy" a lot — on your Web site and in the record's liner notes. Where does that come from?
"Keep it sexy" was something a coworker in L.A. used to say to me when I first moved there. He'd ask, "You keepin' sexy?" To us now it just means feeling good about what you're wearing and who you are.
You have crazy hair. When's the last time you cut it?
Not since I've been in L.A. Three years actually. More like two years, eight months.
Had it been short? I can't imagine it short.
It was very short. Almost a buzz cut.
Who or what would you compare it to now?
Bozo the Clown. I get that a lot. But I don't even think about it anymore.
What is an SFR show like?
We want it to be like a party environment rather than a rock show, everybody dancing and partying — we feed off that. We're out spreading the gospel: let's have fun. Let's get away from reality for 45 minutes.
Wescoewit
[Oh, you guys say some of the darndest things. ]
Not to make you all scared, but we're eavesdropping on your conversations. Yes, we hear everything. And then we print it. But don't worry if you say something stupid, we won't identify you -- unless you owe us money or beer.
Guy 1: Did you see that guy?
Guy 2: Yeah.
Guy 1: He was right on my ass!
Guy 2: He was kind of up on it and stuff.
Guy 1: So, what did he say?
Guy 2: I don't know ... he said he was a piece of crap and stuff ... someone's going to have to pay. George Bush is going to have to pay.
Girl: (on cell phone) Yeah, and you know where I keep it.
Girl: Yeah, and you were making me hold all of it.

Dennis Chanay
Paola fresh man, Student Voice
What's the nicest thing anyone has ever sold to you?
Jardon: Stephanie (asking her running mate), what's the nicest thing anyone's ever said to me? Oh yeah. When someone said that I was smaller than they thought I'd be. They expected me to be more blueberry-shaped.
Sterner: That's a tough one. My parents, when I turned 21, my mom wrote me a birthday card that kind of described what I meant to them. I still have it.
Chaney: Oh man, that's hard. (Calls his sister on his cell phone) Just say something...that's it? It has to be the nicest thing ever! Shut up and say something nice! "You're very responsible and you're nice to most people ... I guess ... when are you coming home?"
Chanay:Oh,it's so half-full.
Jardon: That's a question you know you should know the answer to. I'll say half-empty, and hopefully I'm eating Oreos and dunking them.
Half-empty or half-full?
Do you consider yourself an expert on anything?
Sterner: Half-full.
Jardon: Not only am I an expert at interpretive dancing on Wescoe Beach, but I can also tie cherry stems
in a knot with my tongue — and teach others.
Sterner: No. I'm always trying to learn.
Chanay: I can play the piano pretty well, but I'm not an expert. I started junior year of high school.
What was your first pet?
Jardon: A little beagle puppy named Ralph. He passed away last summer and it broke my heart. I got him when I was 5.
Sterner: Probably a cat named Spook. I was really, really young. The first pet I narned myself was my dog, Samantha.
Chanay: A one-eyed cat named Mabel. We found her and she lived another 16 years after we found her ...she's like a 30-year-old cat.
What song describes your mood right now and why?
Jardon: "Blinded by the Light" by ELO. It's playing right behind me, and it's my dad's favorite band.
Sterner: "Under Pressure" by Queen and David Bowie. Have you ever seen that movie, "Grosse Pointe Blank?" Well, in that scene where he's at the reunion, and he's holding the baby and the song's playing ... it's the turning point in the movie. It always describes my mood because it's a happy song, but it's serious, too.
Chanay: "Two Piña Coladas" by Garth Brooks. It is the morning after St. Patrick's Day.

How to get laid without looking like a slut
Q
I'm going to have a threesome with my girlfriend and this other really hot chick and I was wondering if there are any tips of etiquette you can bring to my attention, like initiation, timing, amount of attention or other details that I will most certainly overlook in my state of excitedness. Thanks.
a
Jake, senior
Chris: Definitely talk to your GF beforehand and find out what she's comfortable with you doing. It's not uncommon for people who are down with threesomes to not be cool with their partner going down on or effing the other person. Selfish? Maybe, but common regardless. I'd just get drunk and follow the lead of the ladies.
Jessi: Be careful. When people seek out sex with people other than their partners, even in a threesome, they are usually trying to compensate for something lacking in their relationship. As Chris said, be sure to talk things over with your girlfriend and have her give your reasons as to why this interests her. Be honest with each other, and figure out if this is what you BOTH really want.
Q
Whenever I meet someone we eventually talk about when we're graduating and once I mention I'm done in May, if the girl is younger, I think she gets turned off because I'll be leaving town soon. Should I lie about being a senior or what?
-Kevin, senior
a
Chris: No. Only skeevy guys at the Hawk lie about being freshmen when they are really going on 30. If a girl doesn't want to date a senior, she won't. And for your sake, you shouldn't be bothered by being turned down by people with such superficial standards. Do your thing, tell the truth and eventually your girl will come around.
Q
Jessi: Definitely don't lie because if you were to start something with her and have it actually last, she'd be even more pissy knowing you were graduating sooner than planned. Tell these people the truth so that you have a solid foundation built on trust, not lies.
a
Sometimes I just really want to get laid. What's the best way to hit on a guy without looking like a slut?
Stephanie, senior
Chris: Well, you shouldn't care about looking like a slut, because most guys couldn't care less. I would just walk up to the guy and say "Hey, i want you to eff me tonight." It'll end up happening and you can clarify later that you're "not usually that forward" or whatever. But it's a foolproof method to getting laid. Note: Guys cannot use this method. It doesn't work.
Jessi: Let's face it. There is no way. When you're looking for sex, you're looking for sex alone with no attachment, which many people construe as "slut-like behavior," regardless of gender. You can either find a guy who wants to use your body and you can use his in those few minutes of what you call "bliss," or you can hold out for a REAL relationship and focus your sexual energy into something more lasting and true.

Sin City
(☆☆☆)
R,126 minutes,
South Wind 12
These days it seems that every other blockbuster that gets released is based on a comic book, but the formula of adapting these works to the screen has been, at best, hit or miss. It would seem that a strong director would be able to instill a unique worldview in these movies, but while some filmmakers (Tim Burton, Sam Raimi) have thrived, other great directors (Ang Lee) have floundered.
Sin City, however, has the luxury of two directors. Frank Miller, who is also the creator of the Sin City graphic novels, served as director of the more narrative aspects of the film. Robert Rodriguez (From Dusk Till Dawn, Desperado) took control of the technical direction.
Does the move pay off? Yes and no. Visually, Sin City is everything you'd hope for. The characters inhabit a stark black and white world where the occasional splash of color serves only to reinforce the ever-present bleakness. The film was shot using live actors transposed onto a computer animated background, and the technology is so adept that what is real and what is CGI is indiscernible.
What keeps the movie from attaining perfection though is the story. The film is a loosely knotted triptych that follows three grizzled loners (actors Mickey Rourke, Clive Owen and Bruce Willis) as they seek redemption by saving the women they love. That tale works fine once, but by the third rehashing of the same story the movie starts to drag. Rodriguez loves to ramp up the gore (I remember five castration scenes, but I may have lost count) and it works in a sort of cartoonish way. But the dialogue is flat, and there is too much reliance of voice over narration. Evidently, the hope was to mimic the comic's essence as much as possible, but in a film adaptation, it's necessary to spruce up the conversation at least a little bit.
Will Lamborn
Sin City is a visual treat. So much so that it makes up for the pedestrian plot. I just wish the film had spent less time narrating to me what was going on and spent more time on the whole "hookers with guns" theme.

Gunner Palace (1/2)
PG-13, 86 minutes
Coming soon to Liberty Hall
Independent filmmakers Michael Tucker and Petra Epperlein offer a soldier's-eye view of the new Iraq in Gunner Palace, a powerful and unfiltered war documentary set in and around Baghdad between September 2003 and April 2004. Tucker spent these months with the 2-3 Field Artillery Battalion, also known as the Gunners, who were living in a bombed-out palace once owned by the late Uday Hussein.
Dispassionately narrated by co-director/cinematographer Tucker, Gunner Palace follows a colorful assortment of American soldiers as they patrol the streets of Baghdad by day and sniff out insurgents by night. They kid around, quote Full Metal Jacket and perform in remarkable sessions of free-style rap. Their worst fear is encountering an IED, or Improvised Explosive Device. In one terrifying scene, Tucker's camera shakes from a distance as a soldier approaches what may be an IED or just a curiously
placed piece of trash.
Gunner Palace includes sights and sounds most Americans have never experienced in the two-year history of the war. We see American soldiers actively pursuing Iraqi girls for dates. We also hear excerpts from Freedom Radio, which is part of American Forces Network, ensuring servicemen not to worry about their student loans.
Whatever your feelings toward the war, this is a must-see movie. Faced with an increasingly squeamish mainstream media at home, Americans need better access to the situation on the ground in Iraq. The gap in coverage, as well as innovations in digital video technology, has left an opening for independent filmmakers. These really are mighty times for independent movies.
In one of the free-style scenes, a Gl says of his tour in Iraq, "No need to like this, but please respect it." With films like Gunner Palace and A Company of Soldiers, the recent Frontline documentary, viewers have the opportunity to fulfill this young soldier's wish.

The Upside of Anger (☆☆)
R,118 minutes. South Wind 12
The Upside of Anger's biggest problem is that it doesn't know what it is. Is it a dark comedy? Drama? Lighthearted farce? It is an awkward combination of all three. It takes serious subjects, such as alcoholism, broken homes and statutory rape, and Lord knows what the audience is supposed to do with them. The movie is comparable to making a joke at someone's funeral, when it's just not appropriate to be funny.
Joan Allen plays Terry, mother of four daughters, whose husband has just left her for his Swedish secretary. This upsets her so much that she spends the first 45 minutes of the movie drunk, without ever knocking back a drink. The daughters (Alicia Witt, Keri Kussell, Erika Christensen and Evan Rachel Wood) act more mature than their mother and don't seem that upset that their father has just left them without saying a word and their mother is a serious alcoholic.
In a supporting turn, Kevin Costner plays Denny, a drunkard, ex-baseball player (what else?) who likes to drop by Terry's house uninvited and stay for dinner. Because Denny and Terry spend so much time drinking together, it is only fitting that they end up sharing a bed, as well as a bottle.
Watching Joan Allen, I couldn't help but think of Nicolas Cage's performance in Leaving Las Vegas. Both of those performances strike the same note of watching someone self-destruct with hard alcohol that's hard to watch but hard to stop watching.
Allen nails her role and Costner is solid, but the two don't have much chemistry. Some of the other plot turns in the movie are just plain weird: One daughter gets a mysterious illness that is never explained; the 18-year-old daughter starts dating a whiny radio producer who is more than twice her age; another daughter tries to get a boy to like her by saying she's "from a broken home." Then the movie jokes about these things. This would be forgivable if the jokes were funny, but instead they come off as awkward.

The Final Cut
Movie ( ☆☆ )
DVD ( ☆☆ )
PG-13, 94 minutes
Images courtesy of www.movies.yahoo.com
In one of last year's more ambitious, little-seen movies, Robin Williams plays Alan Hakman, a high-tech professional in an omnipresent media company named EYE Tech. The enterprise sells implants to wealthy couples, which are inserted into the brain at birth and record lifelong memories. Hakman splices together the images, called Zoe footage, for loved ones to watch at memorial services and gravesites.
Written and directed by rookie filmmaker Omar Naim, The Final Cut is a moody piece of cinema, aided considerably by master cinematographer Tak Fujimoto (The Silence of the Lambs, The Sixth Sense) and a propulsive score composed
PETER & RICKY
by Brian Tyler. The sci-fi elements recall such recent films as Minority Report and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. But those movies, for all of the high concepts they threw around, were rigorous storytelling workouts. The Final Cut is more schematic and dramatically flat.
Naim's most absorbing script development involves a deceased attorney and the young daughter he sexually abused. Hakman must delete the incriminating evidence from the attorney's Zoe footage. That's a solid dramatic obstacle. The rest of the film consists of internal struggles and familiar existential musings.
Williams seems to work best these days as an outsider with secrets to keep. In One Hour Photo, the actor invited us to shudder at the dark recesses of Sy Parrish's mind. Here, he's miscast as the Everyman. When left without a strong personality to play off of, Williams tends to have trouble disappearing into his role.
In addition to three negligible deleted scenes, the Lions Gate DVD features a 25-minute behind-the-scenes documentary. It's clear that everyone involved thought they were making a cautionary tale about the coming surveillance age. The idea never fully coheres in the finished product, and this intriguing film debut could make for a terrific remake someday.

Lemon Jelly 64-95

There's something weird about the music that gets played in those upscale clothing stores — that boring elevatoresque atmospheric shit that fades so easily into the background you almost forget it's there. I guess the idea is to bore you so much with the music that you get an urge to fill that void with irrational purchases of unreasonably expensive chinos and cashmere sweaters.
Fred Deakin and Nick Franglen over at the Lemon Jelly factory must be wearing some fancy threads after this release. Lemon Jelly has made some great music to consume to, and I have a sneaking suspicion that a certain retailer might be behind this whole thing. It's the only logical explanation for such a boring record coming from these guys considering some of the previous Lemon Jelly products.
Supposedly the title of the album denotes the span of years that the Jelly sampled from to manufacture their mundane tunes, which is fascinating and
all, but not really much of a title; though it does give a good indication to the depth of the album. Looped beat, enter sample, throw in a few other clips of layered samples; repeat. And there you have it — Lemon Jelly in all their glossy glory. If you're into boring music that's good to try on stretch slacks to, these guys got you covered, like for reaf. Otherwise, this record is best suited to stay within the confines of corporate shopping establishments.

Beck
Guerr
—Ryan McBee
Beck Guero
Beck Hanson probably wouldn't care to ever earn a spot in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, but if one were to compare him to anyone in it, it would be David Bowie. It's not to say that Beck and Bowie have much to do with each other musically, but both artists have followed the same path of musical reinvention abandoning easy recipes for success in favor for a more creative product making upcoming albums refreshing and intriguing.
At least this was the case for Beck until his latest release, Guero.
Beck originally showed up on the radar with Mellow Gold, featuring its unforgettable "Loser" whose Kurt Cobain-esque refrain of "I'm a loser baby, so why don't you kill me?" resonated with the disaffected early-90s youth. He followed up with an equally successful, if not equally sounding, Odelay! — co-produced with
the prolific Dust Brothers — that was punctuated with a blender of musical styles that morphed into one all Beck's own.
For all of his commercial success at that point, Beck rejected the possibility of grinding his wheels in the poppy formula of his first two albums and went on creative departure with his next three albums, each one unique enough in its composition and dissonance to make them important to only Beck's most devoted fans and not so much to the mainstream culture.
But for whatever reason, Beck reeled in his past musical prescription, as well as the Dust Brothers, for Guero. The result is to be expected: A return to the Odeley/Mellow Gold sound, which wouldn't necessarily be a bad thing if Guero's results weren't so paltry. Aside from the opening "E-Pro" and the closing "Emergency Exit" — whose title sounds like a message of his intentions with the production of this throwback album — there isn't a whole lot to keep fans from reaching for the skip button. A few gems interspersed here and there, such as angelic strains of "Hell Yes" aren't enough to satisfy the devoted Beck groupies who've come to expect the unexpected, or the causal fan seeking the common denominator of an easy-listening pop-production.

Andrew Bird The Mysterious Production of Eggs
Because it is a commonly held belief that one should be able to encapsulate everything about a particular band, artist or album in 10 words or less, my assessment of Andrew Bird's Mysterious Production of Eggs is as follows: what the Fantasia soundtrack would have sounded like had it a) been composed by Mark Mothersbaugh b) featured vocals and c) employed a head-in-the-clouds English grad student/world whistling champion on said vocals. Clearly, that was not 10 words or less. It was 33. Perhaps more important than my three-fold abuse of the word limit is the fact that I was forced to trifurcate the main point. Even in doing so, my best effort falls well short of describing the
brainy, low-fi pop grandeurof the Mysterious Production of Eggs.
Andrew Bird can do and play anything. Instrumentally, he owns the violin, guitar and glockenspiel, among others. He has the warm coffee shop croon down and he is singularly the greatest whistler I have ever
ANDREW DIPP & THE MYSTERious PRODUCTION
OF E945
heard. If meadowlarks were capable of envy, they would envy Bird's virtuoso chirping (additionally, they would be upset that a human had adopted the surname Bird, though clearly not a bird—but who cares what meadowlarks think anyway). Bird also has a librarian's affinity for language and a knack for weaving
tongue-twisting rhyme through many of his songs. Could or would you think to rhyme formaldehyde and fratricide?
I read on Bird's Web site that he was influenced to some degree by the Beatles. I did not need to be told this, as it completely obvious. What the Web site didn't tell
me, what I had to extrapolate for myself, was that Bird was influenced by each individual Beatle — their personal qualities — not of the band as a whole. In essence, Bird is a composite of all four men. Like George, Bird shrugs off thin, punchy guitar riffs ("Banking on a Myth") and has an affinity for world music (the Riverdance
violin stomp of "Fake Palindromes" and the finger picked Mediterranean head rush of "Skin is, My"). Bird, like Paul, seems to have patented the right to make a melody every minute (see: entire album). He apes John's epic weirdness (the album's surrealist children's book insert) while retaining Ringo's quirky playfulness.
In an age of labels and definitions, Bird defies them. Is it jazz, folk, soul, rock, poetry or everything? With every listen of the Mysterious Production of Eggs, there's something new to be heard, some sound you didn't think was there or could even possibly exist. Bird is a visionary, part of a dying breed. We're lucky he can put everything he hears in his head on reel-to-reel tape.

Aqualung Strange and Beautiful
First of all, Aqualung is not a Jethro Tull tribute band; there aren't even any flute solos. Neither is it an lan Anderson side project. With that out of the way, the new album Strange and Beautiful is actually a compilation of his first two albums, which were previously available only in the U.K., singer songwriter Matt Hales first received
recognition when the title track "Strange and Beautiful (I'll Put a Speil on You)" was the soundtrack for a 2002 car commercial. Strangely enough the "jingle" started a buzz around Aqualung.
Aqualung combines melancholy pianos, airy (almost Radiohead-esque
aqualung
strange
and Beautiful
at times) vocals, saturating string ensembles, and drums to create a strange and beautiful (something to do with the name?...maybe) medley of songs. A rather appropriate listen for driving in the rain after being dumped, or at least for pretending that you are and have been. Hales masterfully combines catchy and absorbing melodies with simple yet complexly layered instrumentals to form a,yet again "strange yet beautiful" sound all its own Hales probably describes it best as "po music with a certain complexity and depth."

TimeSplitters:
Future Perfect
PS2, Xbox, GameCube

I've played the two previous installments of this game extensively and I can say that every new version improves. The best part of the game is its simplicity.
This is a true evolution of our old friend Goldeneye for the N64. There is no jumping or complicated controls and one button shoots either one or both guns. This is run-and-gun at its finest. You spawn, shoot and die. Very little strategy is involved in the process and it's so simple I've seen a girl, who normally becomes overwhelmed at other first-person shooters, play TimeSplitters
Free Radical, the developer behind this accomplishment has been working hard on improving every aspect of their last game. In TS2 the story was terrible, but in this one it's is a fun trip full of interesting characters doing some cool things. The multiplayer is deeper with even more weapons and options. The maps are detailed and if you don't like them the game comes with a mapmaker to design you own arenas.
Free Radical had some fun designing
this game. Some of the characters you play are hilarious: a zombie monkey, a dinosaur and a gingerbread man are three of the 150 unlockable characters to earn. The cut scenes are hilarious and the story is full of interesting nuances.
Lately I've been seeing games relying on the Internet to make their game work, but with TimeSplitters, offline gaming is just as fun. Once you beat the game there are numerous challenges to play through which add hours of shooting. The game isn't anything new or fancy. It's not about tactics. They took a traditional first-person shooter such as Perfect Dark and refined it as much as possible. Rent or buy this game; it's one of the best first-person shooters I've ever played.

DBZ Sagas PS2, Xbox, GameCube
All right, let's do some free association,

the word "saga?" Go ahead... I'll wait.
Done? Well if "short" or "not very long,
and rather disappointing" came to mind,
congratulations! You have just entered
the mind of the person who named this
game. For a game that's title suggests
something epic and involving, there just
isn't much content. The game doesn't even encompass the entirety of the Dragonball Z, or DBZ for short, series (for those of you who don't know, DBZ is an anime series from Japan that recently made its appearance in the
United States on Cartoon Network).
Aside from how short the game is, it offers up some new twists in gameplay to keep the material fresh, even if it already has been beaten to death. Sagas puts you in control of certain characters at key plot moments in the DBZ universe, such as Frieza's attack on planet Namek. Instead of strictly being a fighting game, you get to run and fly around a 3D world, collecting capsules and Z coins which can be used to upgrade your fighters. When

upgrading your character you can choose to learn new combos, increase the speed of the character during flight, etc.
The action can get really intense as you battle four or five different enemies at once. But thanks to the simplistic but responsive controls, enemies will not present too much of a challenge. Bosses are unique and usually have specific goals that need to be reached in order to capture the win.
Overall, Sagas is not really anything

special. It tries to take DBZinto a different genre than previous games but fails on a few key points. I would not recommend buying this game as you will probably beat it in the first sitting, but it's a good possibility for a rental. Just remember: length isn't everything, but it sure helps.

Iron Phoenix Xbox
Take a dash of Soul Caliber, half a cup of Bushido Blade, and about 12 ounces of Powerstone. Bake for a couple years and serve via the Xbox. What you get is a fighting game like no one's ever seen.
After some hiccups in the initial shipping, Sega has finally unleashed the free-for-all fighter, Iron Phoenix. Taking aspects of almost every type of fighter out there, Sega has created a product that pushes the definition of what a melee game can be.
In Iron Phoenix, you choose from three different character types, strong and slow, fast and weak, and balanced. You then pick from nine different weapons ranging from a single dagger to an enormous hammer.
This mirrors the Playstation's Bushido Blade, until you enter the fray. In the game, you are pitted against not one
opponent, but up to 15 in a chaotic melee storm.
Iron Phoenix is an Xbox live only game.
The only thing you can do offline is simulate the online skirmishes against a bunch of Al bots.
Do not buy this title if you don't have an Xbox Live subscription or have 15 friends who also have Xboxes and this game; there is no multiplayer aside from system-link or online games. This seems like a
bad move for Sega, denying players any split-screen action.
The game sessions are organized as one of six different game types, including Deathmatch, Challenge Ring, and VIP. Each game type has a unique set of rules
If you can overlook the net nerds and the restrictive online-only nature of the game, Iron Phoenix is actually brilliant.
and conditions, so you can customize.
While Iron Phoenix consists of 16 people hacking and slashing madly in an attempt to spill the most blood, there is order to the chaos. A targeting system keeps your eye on one opponent at a time, even if
you're causing collateral damage to everyone else at the same time. In addition, if you want to cancel the interference of everyone else slashing away, you can challenge the person you've targeted. If
they accept the challenge, you engage in what's called a blood duel, a fight to the death where both parties are immune to everything but each other's attacks.
In an attempt to instill a Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon feel to the combat, the developers used motion capture to get precise movements and combat styles for each of the weapons. With the obscure pan-Asian influences that go into the setting, Iron Phoenix has an interesting atmosphere in which to beat the ever-loving bejezus out of anything that moves.
While it's still got some flaws, this game will surely go down as a milestone in the genre of fighting games. Sega's created something with Iron Phoenix that will surely influence the new generations of fighters to come.

By Chris Brown, Jayplay writer
My thumbs are a sign-of-the-times. When there's a lot going on in my life and I'm stressed, they look like mangled prunes, chewed-up and spit out. When things are going OK and I momentarily forget about my worries, they're as smooth and soft as a baby's butt. Either way, my thumbs are never finished — they're the ultimate "work in progress" as I go through every day facing new challenges.
My thumbs are the physical embodiment of a mental predisposition to extremes. On one hand (pun intended), my life, and the events in it can be dull, boring and inert. On these days, I often find myself lying on the couch for hours at a time, mindlessly flipping through channels — enter the realm of the "smooth thumb." Conversely, my life can be fast, frenetic and overworked. On these days, I find myself running from class to work to meetings to band practice without any break in between. Chewed thumb, here I come. With each change in routine comes a new set of behaviors that lend themselves to either compulsive anxiety or laziness.
When I'm in school, I'm generally in the realm of the chewed thumb. I pack my days chock-full of events, running the gamut from academic to recreational (if time permits at the end of the day) and leave little time to just chill out. I've followed this routine, to varying degrees and with minimal success, for the last two years. On a good day in the chewed thumb realm, minimal damage is done, something akin to having a bloody hangnail
peel and then fall off, leaving a small patch of blood on an otherwise healthy-looking plot of skin. On a bad day, however, my thumbs look as though they have been fighting alongside each other, and losing, in a violent war where the enemy uses piercing daggers. Suffice to say, it's not a pretty picture. On these days when my thumbs are at their worst, I find my behavior follows suit. The slightest bit of stimuli seems to put me over the edge and I stress out about insignificant things—like where I put a piece of paper with a memo to call someone.
I begin forgetting how to remember and that object I've just put down on a table vanishes from my memory almost instantly. On these days, it's not uncommon for me to "lose" and then "find" my wallet, my phone, my shoes and other items that are constantly shifting places three, four or even five times (though five is, admittedly, a rare occurrence).
This teeter-tottering between extremes has been a lifelong trait. Thinking back, I can remember displaying nervous behavior on my first day of first grade: standing at the bus stop with a small army of butterflies in my stomach, terrified by whatever experience the bus ride to school might bring. My first day of riding the bus and first grade came and went without any major problems but my nervous edge did not. Though I soon learned the bus ride to school brought little in the way of scary experiences, I never completely got used to leaving the comfort of my home only to be picked up by a grizzled-looking stranger (the bus driver) and sitting with a bunch of
kids, from different backgrounds and of different ages, who were hyper and generally very loud.
This nervous behavior continued to manifest itself throughout grade school. Before school every morning, I would have this daunting feeling that I was leaving something very important behind on the way out the door to the bus stop. For four elementary school years, before frantically running out the door just a minute or two away from missing the bus, I would give my mom a quick kiss on the cheek and then in a desperate, distressed tone blurt out, "Any messages, anything, ANYTHING?!" Mostly she just laughed but there was the occasional message that kept me asking this question almost obsessively every day. At night, the behavior continued. Spurred on by the idea that "things that go bump in the night" could be hiding in my walls, underneath my bed and in my closet, I routinely checked these
spaces before I went to bed. Needless to say, I never found any monsters, but the thought that one lapse in my routine could result in an encounter with some big black hairy creature with huge fangs ready to have me as a midnight snack kept me always checking before going to bed.
Nowadays, I've traded in my elementary school fears of encounters with monsters for college-aged fears of the unknown. At this time in my life, I am constantly asking myself questions like how will I balance all of my school-related responsibilities without an ever-increasing work load? How will I perform in difficult classes? And the ever-present question every senior grapples with: What kind of job will I get after graduation? At the end of the day, my thumbs bear witness to my abilities to cope and are an indicator of what might lay ahead for the future.

Student to spin 'Wheel'

KANSAN STUD WRITE
Wheel of Fortune contestant to experience life-long dream next wee
4
Ricky Fursetzer has wanted to be on Wheel of Fortune since he was a child.
Now, the Minnetonka, Minn., sophomore, will be living his dream as a contestant on Wheel of Fortune Big 12 College Week, which will be taped at Bartle Hall in Kansas City, Mo.
Growing up, the sole purpose of having a television in his kitchen was to watch the show with his father.
"It's been my dream forever to be on the show," he said. "I am doing it for my dad."
His dad, David Fursetzer, said the two watched the show together because it was a fun and educational activity they could do together.
4
He tried out for the show at the Kansas Union last semester, but said he didn't know if it was the tryout or his online registration that landed him the spot.
Two weeks later he received an e-mail that he was selected for a second audition.
"It was just for fun," he said of the tryout at the Union. "But I figured I might as well give it my best and I got off the stage without thinking twice about it."
"I am exceptionally proud, whether he wins or not," he said.
Fursetzer will join contestants throughout the Big 12 Conference for the show, which will air the week of May 16.
Contestants participated in a mock puzzle to show the Wheel of Fortune representatives how they acted, Fursetzer said.
On March 13, Fursetzer joined about 30 others in Kansas City. Mo., to participate in interviews, puzzle solving and a written test.
"We were supposed to say the letter loud and quickly with energy," he said. "We had to make sure our hands were making gestures and we were not allowed to say please or thank you."
mail said: "We loved you at your audition and you have been selected to represent KU on the Big 12 College Week on Saturday, April 9 in Kansas City."
Fursetzer said the most nerveracking part was when the panel cut over half of the contestants before the final round of the tryout.
"When I called her back, I was seriously having trouble breathing," he said.
"I was the second to last name called," he said. "My heart was pounding and time felt like it was going by so slow."
"I told him that if he wins the grand prize he has to take me to Las Vegas so the least I can do is go support him." Cooks said.
For the final part of the tryout, remaining contestants played an actual round of the game.
Fursetzer won't be alone, his longtime friend Or Cooks, Minnetonka, Minn., junior, said there would be about 15 of his fraternity brothers from Lambda Chi Alpha there to cheer him on.
The only disappointment is that his family won't be able to see the taping because they will be in Las Vegas for his grandmother's birthday, Fursetzer said.
"California Condor," Fursetzer said. "I have no idea what it means, but that was the puzzle that I solved."
When he didn't get a letter from the show by the end of spring break, Fursetzer said he was okay with it. A few days later when he listened to a missed call from a Los Angeles area code, he almost fell down the stairs at Snow Hall, west of Strong Hall, he said.
He recalled exactly what the voice
"If it wasn't my mom's 90th birthday, nothing could keep me away from watching the show," David Fursetzer said.
Fursetzer said he hoped Pat Sajak would say happy birthday to his grandmother on the air.
"It would be the best birthday president I could give her," he said.
Wheel of Fortune is also taping Mom & Me Week next Friday and Kansas City Week, Sunday, April 10, at Bartle Hall. Both segments will air in May.

Students sell souls for charity
BY BETSY MCLEOD
correspondent@kansan.com
KANSAN CORRESPONDENT
Twenty-three KU students sold their souls to random bidders last night at the first ever SOMA-sponsored Soul Auction.
"Since we are an Atheist/Agnostic group we thought it would be a good idea to make fun of the concept of having souls while making money at the same time," Keiv Spare, co-organizer and Parsons senior, said.
The auction was held by the Society of Open-Minded Atheists and Agnostics, or SOMA, at the Alderson Auditorium in the Kansas Union.
SOMA and the Douglas County Aids Project split the proceeds from the auction. Organizers held the event to raise awareness about the group and raise money for charity.
The auction made more than $1,200. The highest bid went to Kelly Spencer, Overland Park freshman, whose soul sold for $400. Brandon Kuehmichel, Milwaukee, Wis., graduate student, purchased Spencer's soul.
"I thought it was crazy anyone would spend that much on me," Spencer said.
The soul-sellers were bound to their buyers for a minimum of three hours, doing everything from going on a date to doing charity or housework.
Bids were initiated based on the type of work the soul for sale was willing to do and the amount of time he or she was willing to spend doing it. Although most of the students involved were members of SOMA, the auction was open to everyone.
"The girls always make the most money," Paul Youk, co-organizer and Durham graduate student, said. The next highest bid was on Leah Spare, Parsons sophomore, whose soul sold for $140. She participated in the auction because it was for a good cause and had nothing else to do tonight, she said.
Player's dad attempts murder, suicide

Robertson's pickup was found about two hours later abandoned on a rural road next to a golf course a few miles outside town. Officers

Police were investigating a possible motive. Robertson's son, Baron, had apparently been banned from playing all school athletics on Wednesday, said Steve Smith Jr., a senior who was a defensive end and kicker on the team.

TOPEKA — Even with new language in the Kansas Constitution dealing with same sex unions, Attorney General Phill Kline said he wouldn't attack public or private benefit plans covering gays' and lesbians' partners.
Kline, who strongly supported the constitutional amendment approved by voters to ban gay marriage and civil unions for gay couples, said Wednesday that it did not apply to benefits that companies offer their employees.
A spokesman said while Kline's office wasn't aware of any public agency providing benefits to the partners of gay and lesbian employees, it received numerous questions about the amendment's effect.
And then the wall came tumbling down

Nigger, fag, spic, dirty Jew,
gimp, trailer trash. These words
were on the wall of hate yesterday.
And with one pull, the wall
came crashing down.
More than 20 representatives from different student organizations on campus were part of the tear down crew, which was asked to take down the wall.
All that remained of the wall that symbolically represented hate still present on campus was a long concrete stump.
The wall project was part of Hate Out Week, sponsored by the Multicultural Resource Center, the Office of Multicultural Affairs, the Diversity Peer Education Team and the Association of University Residence Halls.

"The Wall of Hate is built
The Associated Press
Tuesday, students were invited to share their experiences of hate or discrimination on campus.
Santos Nunez, director of the MRC, said the project's purpose was to allow KU students to symbolically tear down walls that cause hate on campus.
Nuñez said she found that many students found writing hate on the wall and than tearing it down to be very therapeutic.
Students were allowed to
write anything on the wall. The only limitation was from space.
By 4 p.m. on Tuesday, the north side of the wall was full.
Nuhez also recognized the Facilities Operations employees who spent six hours building the 7-by-12 foot wall Monday, starting at 7:30 a.m.
David Charles, St. Louis freshman, saw the wall when he was walking by the Stauffer-Flint Hall lawn after class. He stopped when he found out the wall was coming down.
After the ceremony several students took turns using a sledgehammer to smash what remained of the wall into smaller pieces they could take home.

About 70 people came to the ceremony despite the cool air and overcast sky. Rain and sleet kept the crowd in fall 2002, the last time the wall ceremony took place, to only a few students, faculty and staff.
This year the ceremony was scheduled to coincide with the recent vote that will put an amendment in the Kansas constitution banning gay marriage. Nuñez said she also wanted this

Study says beautiful people earn more
An office of the nation's central bank now says that if you're gorgeous, chances are better that you will get paid more than plain folks.
Analysis by the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis suggests that good-looking people tend to make more money and get promoted more often.
Their conclusion: it helps to be tall, slender and attractive.

STUDENT SENATE ELECTIONS
By KELLIE ROBINETT

Candidate to run as part of first female duo
When Delta Force presidential candidate Elaine Jardon nominated Stephanie Craig for the vice presidential position, Craig didn't exactly know what to think of it.
DELTA FORCE
affairs, but she never considered herself to be a candidate for such an important position.
After a while, though, her excitement built up, and she started believing in herself.
"Elaine's confidence in me really made me think that it's something I should do," Craig said. "Her wanting to work with me is such an honor."
No Student Senate party has
ever run with two female candidates, and the fact that Jardin thought enough of Craig to be the first to try meant a lot to her, Craig said.
Since accepting the nomination, Craig has been hard at work on the campaign trail. She left her job at Affinitas for the month of April and has spent most of her days on Wesco Beach or chalking on campus.
She said most of her attention has been focused on winning the election, but the extra work hasn't bothered her because she's learned to balance her activities.
In addition to her job and Student Senate position, she is majoring in both economics and creative writing. She is also required to keep her grades up in order to keep a scholarship, which covers everything other than her books and utility bills.
Her parents bought her a car and pay for her insurance, but that is all she allows them to take

care of. She said it would be unfair if she asked them to pay for anything else.
"I'm used to working hard," she said. "Balancing academics, community involvement and having a part-time job is hard, but I'm used to it by now."
When Craig graduates next spring, she wants to join the University's creative writing department and then go to law
school. She said she was still debating whether she wanted to be a lawyer or an author.
Even if her dreams come true, Craig understands she will never be recognized as the most famous graduate of her high school. She has already conceded that title to fellow Edmond Memorial High School graduate, and Kansas basketball coach, Bill Self.
"My high school calculus teacher used to talk about Bill Self all the time," she said. "I knew who he was before I knew about KU."
Self's shadow is a difficult one to step out of, but if Delta Force ends up winning the Student Senate election, Jardon thinks Edmond Memorial High School should pay some homage to Craig.
"They can put up two Jawhawk plaques with little quotes underneath each of them," Jardon said. "Bill Self on one side and Stephanie Craig on the other."

Sara Garlick is running for vice president for the Student Voice coalition. She had trouble adjusting to college life when she came to the University of Kansas but has since learned to juggle KU College Republicans and the coalition.
BY KELLIE ROBINETT krobinett@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Sarah Garlick has wanted to be a politician since she was 7-years-old. As the vice presidential candidate for the Student Voice coalition, Garlick is starting to realize that goal.
"This is kind of a first step to get a feel for it on a larger scale," Garlick, Redbank, N.J., Junior, said.

She toyed with the idea of getting involved with Student Senate as soon as she arrived at the University of Kansas but never thought the time was right.
for the Student Voice coalition, at a KU College Republican meeting.
Garlick made the decision to run after meeting Dennis Chanay, presidential candidate
Chanay, Paola freshman, told her he was creating a new student political party, and because she liked his platform, she agreed to join the cause.
"I didn't think I would run, but after I saw everything that should be fixed, I got interested." Garlick said.
Garlick hesitated to run for Senate earlier in her college career because she was involved in a number of other activities. She had trouble adjusting to college, so she chose to give up all of the activities.
"I was being pulled every which way," she said.
Garlick was involved in the rowing team and ROTC and joined the Sigma Kappa sorority. Garlick was expelled from the sorority and didn't want to

comment further on the issue. Sigma Kappa officials said the reasons for her expulsion were undisclosed.
Eventually she learned to pace herself and began trying to serve a greater cause through the Student Voice coalition.
"When you're an 18-year-old college freshman or sophomore,
it can be overwhelming," Garlick's mother Nikki Garlick said. "She's come back well, and I'm very proud of her."
Now Vikki said Garlick was more than capable of holding office. She said Garlick is outspoken, stands up for her beliefs and above all else, enjoys working for others.
Garlick has found time to squeeze in new extracurricular activities beyond Student Voice. She is a member of the KU College Republicans and is actively trying out for a KU mascot position.
"I'm a big Jayhawk fan and my friends think I'm real hyper," Garlick said.
Once she graduates, the political science and international studies major plans to get her master's degree.

Candidate continues family's KU legacy
BY KELLI ROBINETT krobinett@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER
On the surface, it may look like Marynell Jones is running for student body vice president to follow in her mother's footsteps.

Her mother,
Mary Lou
Reece,
held office in 1976,
and though
duplicating her
mother's fate
would mean a lot to Jones, that's not what drives her.
She genuinely likes the student government process and wants to sacrifice her time to make campus life better for other students, Jones said.
"We've always placed a high regard on public service and doing things for the good of the whole." Jones' mother Reece said. "That's just rubbed off on her over time."
During the last two years, Jones has been the freshmansophomore CLAS student senator. This year she is a student representative for the University Council and serves on the Senate Executive Board.
"Student Senate is my life," she said.
The Dallas junior got involved with KUnited and Student Senate during her freshman year when former president Andy Knopp asked her to run. She said she liked the group because it represented the same goals she wanted to achieve.
"It was hard to make KU feel like a home coming from Texas," Jones said. "Once I got involved with the Senate stuff it started feeling more like a home."
Her mother's influence may not be the main reason Jones is involved with Senate, but following her family members' leads is nothing new to her.
Jones was named after her

As a fourth-generation Jayhawk, her decision to come to the University was never in question.

You can also see evidence of her family's history spread across
At Alderson Auditorium in the Kansas Union, there is a brown bag signed by Reece on display. It was the first brown bag lunch ever handed out at the University.
Even the family's vacations have been scheduled around Kansas events. In 1997 Reece's grandmother flew 24 members of the family to Hawaii so they could watch the men's basketball team play in the Rainbow Classic.
Whether KUnited wins the election, Jones will continue to try to make her own mark at the University.
"This University is a really important place, and important things go on here," Jones said. "I just want to encourage people to get involved."

Cosmosphere co-founder charged with theft
PRESIDENT
Sandra I. Millburn/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Jeff Ollenburger, president and CEO of the Kansas Cosmosphere and Space Center, talks to reporters during a news conference at the U.S. Attorney's office yesterday in Wichita. Ollenburger was answering questions after U.S. Attorney Eric Melgren, left, announced an 11-count indictment against Max Ary, the former director of the KCSC. Ary has been charged with stealing artifacts from the space flight museum and selling them.
BY MATT SEDENSKY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
The co-founder of a Kansas museum that houses a nationally recognized collection of space memorabilia stole dozens of artifacts, sold them and pocketed the profits, prosecutors said yesterday.
Max Ary was instrumental in transforming a small-town planetarium into the Kansas Cosmosphere and Space Center, which he led for 27 years. He is named in an 11-count federal indictment filed in Wichita, that claims he stole a number of the Hutchinson, Kan., museum's prized possessions — many on loan from NASA.
The grand jury's indictment said Ary made around $180,000 by selling the objects, including the nose of a rocket, an astro-
naut's in-flight T-shirt, a control panel from Air Force One and an Apollo 12 water valve.
Cosmosphere president Jeff Ollenburger, who assumed Ary's post after he left the museum in September 2002, said more than 100 items were unaccounted for, only a third of which were noted in the indictment.
Jim Cross, a spokesman for U.S. Attorney Eric Melgren, said the court filing was not intended to be a "laundry list" of thefts, simply those for which prosecutors had significant evidence.
Wichita attorney Lee Thompson, who is representing Ary, said there were inconsistencies in the government's case.
"Mr. Ary intends to defend his innocence against any charge that he harmed the Cosmosphere or the federal space program," Thompson said. "Mr. Ary's
defense will certainly contend that his actions in dealing with tens of thousands of space items during his tenure at the Cosmosphere complied with the policies of the Cosmosphere's board of directors."
Under Ary's leadership, the Cosmosphere, about 200 miles southwest of Kansas City, grew from a two-person operation to a space museum with about 70 employees and 285,000 annual visitors.
In 2005, after Ary's departure, the center's board of directors first became aware that artifacts apparently had been sold without its approval and the museum did not receive the money.
According to the indictment, Ary established two accounts with California auctioneer Superior Galleries Inc. — one in his name and another to sell items
on behalf of the Cosmosphere.
The court filing details four auctions from October 1999 to May 2001 in which Ary allegedly sold 92 items for around $180,000.
"We are prosecuting this case on behalf of NASA and others who have entrusted valuable historical artifacts to the Cosmophere's keeping," Melgren said. "It is significant to all Americans that the history of this nation's heroic exploration of space be preserved and retold to each new generation."
Ary now lives in Oklahoma City, where he runs the Kirkpatrick Science and Air Space Museum at Omniplex. A spokeswoman there said Ary had been open about the possibility of legal action against.
Ary did not return a call seeking comment.

Patinkin to spend an evening at KU
Award-winning performer Mandy Patkinin will be interviewed by an audience 8 p.m. tomorrow at the Crafton-Preyer Theatre in Murphy Hall.
Patinkin is best known for the line, "Hello, my name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die," from The Princess Bride. He attended the University of Kansas from 1970 to 1972.
Other events during the show will include a medley of musical acts Patinkin was involved in performed by students. Matt Jacobson, associate film professor also created a video montage of Patinkin's lesser-known work.
Proceeds from "A Conversation with Mandy Patinkin" will go to installing a digital personal sound amplification system, which helps hearing-impaired patrons. The system picks up transmissions from the theater's sound board and sends them to receivers worn by patrons.
The money will also be used to create a scholarship for theatre and film students.
Tickets cost $40 for general public and $20 for University students. Tickets can be purchased from the University Theatre box office at 864-3982 or at kutheatre.com.

Pope's notes, will released yesterday
VATICAN CITY — Pope John Paul II, weighed down by illness and age, considered resigning as he turned 80 in 2000, according to his last will and testament published yesterday.
"The times in which we live are unutterably difficult and disturbed," he wrote in 1980, according to the official Vatican translation from Polish.
John Paul's funeral today promises to be one of the largest Western religious gatherings of modern times.
The Associated Press
"Most of these trips aren't about bringing stuff, it's about bringing ourselves," he said. "We're there to be with the people."
Bowen has been clowning with the institute since the early 90s, traveling around the world.
He invited his daughter on a trip to Cuba last year where they visited mentally disabled kids. That was when Brynn put on her first red nose.
"She had kids slobbering on her and she just stayed with it. It made me feel great to see what kind of kid Brynn has turned out to be." Bowen said.
Brynn hasn't yet developed her own clown persona, but knows that one day it will come to her.
But traveling with Adams' institute isn't all fun and games.
Even her experience in Cuba or television coverage of the tsunami could prepare her for the devastation after she arrived in Sri Lanka.
"The media doesn't prepare you," Bowen said. "You just don't understand it until you see it."
"Everything looked normal, then in the morning it's like 'boom,'" she said. "There was just nothing there. I had no idea the degree of devastation that was there."
Brynn's night arrival kept her from seeing the damage as they flew in.
The worst feeling came for Brynn when she was on the beach looking at the debris, including clothing that was still left from the tsunami. Stranded on the beach was a fluorescent-colored child's flip-flop.
"That was the first punch in the stomach." Brynn said.
With all that the people of Sri Lanka have lost, she said it was amazing how they could pick up the pieces and go on with their lives.
The group traveled the coast for a week.
Wherever they went the clowns were welcomed; and wherever they went they would try to bring smiles to faces. People would even smile and wave as the group passed in a bus.
Near the end of the trip in one of the refugee camps, Brynn and Bowen had an experience they would treasure.
"She had kids slobbering on her and she just stayed with it."
Bowen White
Brvonn White's father
While the clowns were spread out having fun, Bowen spotted one child who was standing on a pile of rubble with his head down and crying. He noticed that the child had skinned his knee. Bowen, as Dr. Jerko, scooped up the boy and took him to Brynn so that they could patch up his knee.
"That's what he needed. He needed some attention," she said.
Brynn said sometimes the children just wanted to be held. She said it was hard to let them go.
Brynn will continue to travel around with her father and the group. She said in the future she wanted her sisters to get involved too.

Other objects Stangl said he recalled seeing being thrown off the fire escape included a refrigerator, an oven, random nonworking computer parts, a nonworking television and a couch.
Blake Cripps, Topeka sophomore, experienced problems with Stephenson this semester. He said he might not be able to live in the hall next fall.
"Richard" referred to Richard Friesner, Stephenson Scholarship Hall Director.
Cripps said he posted a sign on his door that stated "Richard is a dolt."
Friesner could not comment because of student housing regulations and directed all questions to Stoner.
Other objects Stangl said he recalled seeing being thrown off the fire escape included a refrigerator, an oven random nonworking computer parts, a nonworking television and a couch.
of his student housing contract.
Cripps said Friesner filed an incident report with student housing for the sign. The department put Cripps on one year of general probation. He said housing officials found him guilty of being uncooperative with the staff and general harassment, which violated the terms and conditions
or his student appealed the probation March 18 on grounds that it was too severe, but the decision was upheld. The probation will last until the end of the semester next fall — if he gets back into the hall.
The probation letter stated that if he was involved with any other policy violations during his probation time, his status as a resident of student housing would be reviewed. Cripps said.
Cripps said he never had any incidents with the University of Kansas or student housing in the past. His interview was yesterday, and he wants to return to Stephenson next fall.
"Do I think the sanction is severe? Yeah, I think it's way too severe, but they thought it was the right thing to do so I have to deal with it," Cripps said.
He said Stephenson residents would be notified by May 9 on whether they would return next fall.
Chanay said he disagreed with StudEx's decision. He said he had never missed any office hours or a presentation of a bill.
"If he would have said he'll be there for future meetings and said he was sorry for missing in the first place he would have been reinstalled." Arthur said.
in the end, Chanay did not show strong dedication or enthusiasm regarding the future.

"I don't have any personal problems with StudEx or anyone on StudEx." Chanay, Paola freshman, said. "But I really disagree with their decision, and I do care a lot about Student Senate."
There were six other senators that were suspended from Senate but none of them were expelled with Chanay. Arthur said they were all reinstated because everyone made promises for the future or admitted that they were wrong in missing
Arthur, Dallas, Texas, junior, said not only did Chanay not show dedication for the future but his reasons for missing meetings were suspicious. He said Chanay missed one of the meetings because he was sick, but could provide no real documentation. He also said another reason Chanay missed was because he had study hours for his fraternity, which Arthur said was not a solid reason because extra curricular activities take priority over a fraternity.
Sterner, Shawnee junior, said Chanay's absences showed a lack of responsibility.
"Regardless of the issue in Senate, you should be there to vote," Sterner said. "It shows irresponsibility on his part."

motion. Jardon, Overland Park sophomore, said wireless Internet was a previous KUnited platform issue.
"This is a trend with them if you look back at their past platforms." Jardon said.
The candidates also debated each other's experience within Senate and how much of a role that plaved.
In his, closing statement, Sterner stressed voting for KUnited this year because of the coalition's experience. Marynell Jones, KUnited vice presidential candidate, said that both of her coalition's candidates had previous experience in Senate, and candidates for the other coalitions did not. Jardon has not served in Senate before, nor has Sara Garlick. Student Voice vice presidential candidate.
Jones said it was something KUnited planned to mention again in the formal debate on Monday.
Jardon said although she had never served in Senate, she has had involvement in other campus organizations and that diversity was important when running
for student body president
"In order to accurately represent the student body it is important to have perspectives from various groups of students, and I do." Jardon said.
Student Voice candidates mentioned concerns about the elections commission and its ability to conduct a fair election. Dennis Chanay, Student Voice presidential candidate, said he no longer took the commission seriously because of all the violations that had been filed against his coalition.
"Win or lose it is important to have a fair election commission," Chanay said.
KUnited candidates also voiced concerns about the commission. Candidates said that because the commissioner was new, he was not familiar with the election process.
"I think the commission has been at a disadvantage from the beginning," Sterner said. "There is work that needs to be done in the future concerning checks and balances."
The coalitions will hold a second and final debate Monday night at the Kansas Union.

JUST MAKES SENSE
PAGE 7A
Educators need to focus on girls; math, science not only for men
STEPHANIE LOVETT slovett@kansan.com
When women call themselves a minority, they often receive eye rolls, even on college campuses like ours. And why not? Statistically, women aren't a minority. They make up just over 51 percent of students at the University of Kansas, which is true of most universities
10
mese days. Despite these gains in education, women still aren't equally represented in high-paying careers, such as medicine and engineering — so much so that they only make up 23 percent of doctoral scientists in the United States.
While physiological explanations have been offered over the years for the lower number of women in scientific careers — such as smaller brain size — none have proved conclusive. Researchers can't agree on the role of biology in the gender disparity but they do agree on the role of society and socialization of girls and boys.
The topic of women in the sciences — or lack thereof — has been a hot one since Harvard president Lawrence Summers addressed it Jan. 14. Academics and feminists quickly considered Summers' remarks heretical because he downplayed the idea of old-fashioned discrimination of women.
Michigan sociology professor Yu Xie, who researches women and science told Time Magazine, "I don't exclude biology as an explanation. But I know biological factors would not play a role unless they interacted with social conditions."
Summers' assessment gave more credence to the hypotheses that women are less interested in the demands of high-powered jobs in the sciences and that men may be more inherently apt for science. The latter suggestion most infuriated the academic community, and for good reason.
The natural place to change notions of who can have a career in the sciences is in school, and early. Elementary school students have a stereotype of what a scientist is, said Doug Huffman, professor of elementary science education. They think of a man in a lab coat working with chemicals. Not only is this idea inaccurate
— "the sciences" encompass engineering, physics, math, biology and more — but it reinforces the other cultural idea that a scientist is a man.
To change this notion,
Huffman suggests that educators be aware of this false stereotype so they can combat it. Adolescent boys often
dominate lab activities, so teachers should consider forming all-girl groups. Young children should also be educated about the myriad careers that science and math lend themselves to. Moreover, children should be educated about actual female scientists and given the opportunity to meet real-life female role models.
Without such efforts, when young men and women reach college they will still hold their pre-conceived notions about what science can, or can't, offer them. High school girls often see engineering as a computer-focused profession and are unaware of the different majors within the school, said KU engineering recruiter Dawnelle Prince. Female recruiting is improving for the engineering school, but progress is slow when trying to overcome years of socialization.
Our own University is an example of both promise and room for growth for women in science-related majors. Women make up more than 57 percent of biology majors, 44 percent of environmental studies majors, and 55 percent of health, sport and exercise sciences majors. But women are still greatly underrepresented in math, physics, and engineering, often making up less than 30 percent or even 20 percent of undergraduate majors.
To empower women to enter the sciences, we've got to start early. A man isn't born a scientist any more than a woman is. Intellect, encouragement, commitment and education combine to form a scientist. This very fact points to where the change has to be made — in youth, specifically how children are educated. Otherwise, women's careers will continue to be defined by society instead of the other way around.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
'Kansan' careless for publishing column promoting pro-steroid use
I wanted to express what I believe is pure stu pidity in publishing a column titled "Rewards of steroid use can outweigh risks" in Monday's University Daily Kansan. While I understand the purpose of the article in a face-off, I don't understand why, under any circumstances, you would publish in a widely read paper that steroid use may be OK because of the rewards.
Look again at the title of your article:
"Rewards of steroid use can outweigh risks."
The biggest risk involved with steroid use is death, which I find to be far superior to any temporary gain you may get from steroid use. Sure, steroids work, and I am in no way denying that. But let me ask you this: What good is having the capability to hit a ball 500 feet or power through the hole as a running back if you're lying in a body bag? I know it paints a morbid picture, but it's a harsh reality that we must face when confronted with steroids.
If you don't believe that the effects of steroids can be this drastic, then look at the case of Taylor Hooton. Obviously you know who he is, as someone was smart enough to mention his father in her column titled, "Steroids killing competitive nature and honesty of sports." What you probably already know is that Taylor Hooton was a 17-year-old varsity pitcher on his high school baseball team. His coaches told him that he needed to "get bigger," however they gave him no further guidance than that. Taylor took this as a sign that he needed to do something to make him stand out from the rest.
As a result, he began using anabolic steroids
Over time he began to develop all of the classic symptoms, but most people were oblivious to it at the time. During the summer of 2003, however, is when it all started to spiral downward. What you may not know is that Taylor Hooton was getting help. He was off of the steroids, but the side effects don't go away that easily. As a result of depression, caused by the steroids, so deep that he thought nothing could save him, he hung himself in his bedroom on July 15, 2003.
Taylor Hooton, my best friend, my teammate, my next-door neighbor is gone. So I propose the question again: Are steroids really worth the risk? Think about what you are publishing. You can't honestly believe the risk of death is worth it to be able to bulk up a bit and gain a competitive advantage in sports.
Maybe next time if you are going to tread waters in a controversial topic, you should examine all sides of it. The problem with steroids goes way beyond cheating, it's a matter of one's health. How many more people have to die before we realize that this is a serious problem? To all of you athletes out there: Grow up and work out hard if you want results instead of sticking a needle in your ass.
Reading the kansan today made me sick to my stomach, and I hope that you consider what your actions may have done today to those people who are on the borderline of deciding whether or not they want to take steroids. Sure the risk of death is rare, but don't tell it me it can't happen because I live with it every day.

Scientific theory explains life, but requires leap of faith

science. This is real. Albert Einstein's dream has been realized.
Since the mid-'60s, physicists have been searching for a theory to unify the four forces of nature. There are four basic forces in the universe — gravitational, electromagnetic and two nuclear forces that take place inside the nucleus of an atom. Since 1979, we have been using the "Standard Model," which does a fantastic job explaining the relationships between three of the four forces. The only problem is that physicists and mathematicians have never been able to work the fourth, the gravitational, force into an equation that balances out.
Humans have searched for a fundamental theory underlying all natural phenomena since the beginning of civilization. A unifying theory that encompasses the four forces of nature is probably the most important discovery science is now trying to achieve. Einstein was one of the first people to propose that a unifying theory must exist, and he spent most of his later life looking for one unsuccessfully.
Enter string theory. A developing idea that may explain how the four forces, and our world, fit together.
String theory predicts that everything, every piece of matter, in the universe is made of the same thing. Think of it as a small rubber band, a band that is vibrating in some way. The way it vibrates is what determines if it will be an electron, a strange
quark — yes, that's actually a name for an existing piece of matter — a muon, etc. Together, the countless number of strings all vibrating in different ways, creates everything we see. It's like a gigantic orchestra playing the symphony of the universe.
As you know, new scien-
tic theories are always under attack, as they should be, and string theory is no different. The primary problem with string theory is that it cannot be tested. The theory is that the strings are about $10^{35}$ meters in length. That is inconceivably small. The difference between the theorized size of a string and the size of a single atom is the same as the difference between the size of you and the distance between the sun and the nearest star. It's difficult to conceptualize, but the bottom line is we can't test for them and will probably never be able to. Another problem with string theory is that it pretty much depends on the existence of eleven dimensions. We can only sense four. Anybody ever seen the fifth or sixth dimension? If you have, you should call the physics department, they'd be interested to hear about it.
Because the theory can't be tested, it raises questions about whether it's even a scientific theory. It takes quite a bit of belief and faith, and even, "Oh no! Religion!" for the physicists and mathematicians working on it because most of the material is too difficult for normal people to understand. But I believe in modern science, which has proven more reliable in solving the mysteries it has sought after, rather than a book that a bunch of men — no women — wrote a thousand years ago.

PROFILE
KU graduate to ascend Mount McKinley
BY NELI MULKA
nmulka@hansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Three times week, Jessica Drees straps on a backpack full of textbooks and then climbs onto a Stairmaster.
The 2004 graduate stays on the machine for an hour while wearing hiking boots.
Sometimes other people at the gym stare at her like she has the plague, Drees said.
But that doesn't matter when you're preparing to scale Mount McKinley, also known as Mount Denali, in a few weeks.
You have to get into shape to go the summit of a 20,320-foot mountain.
"I turn my iPod up really high so I don't feel like a dork," Drees said. "No one has asked me about it so far."
In addition to the Stairmaster, Drees cycles, lifts weights and swims to get ready for the monthlong trip in May.
She's hard-core, said Lance Roth, group leader of the fourperson trip and Moscow, Idaho, resident.
Roth met Drees at the Juneau Icefield Research Program, a research project that studies the environment and resource potentials of arctic regions.
Roth, who has been climbing mountains since he was 16, is impressed with Drees' attitude.
"She doesn't mind suffering to get ahead," Roth, now 28, said. "We're in an environment where body doesn't want to be. It's negative 40 degrees, you can't breathe. You have to step up a notch to just get to by."
While on the mountain, Drees
will collect snow samples to study how elevation affects temperature and to scope out potential drill sights to collect ice core samples.
A
Drees said she looked through the Denali National Park register, which has a record of every person to
So far, she has climbed five mountains that were more than 14,000 feet tall. Drees also wants to scale Mount Kilimanjaro.
"I like the mountains because they are away from the civilized world," Drees said. "You can be in a valley and be the only person to you can see all around."
climb Mount McKinley since 1995. From her research, Drees said she thought she would be the first woman from Kansas to climb the mountain since 1995.
Drees has been climbing mountains since 2002 when she ascended Mount Shasta in California.
Ride the lightning
O
There, she had an electrifying experience on the mountain.
While camped out at Lake Helen, a lightening storm came right above them.
She was camped out in a snowfield and the highest point was her tent, Drees said.
"You can usually count the seconds between the flash and the bolt to see how far away the storm is." Drees said. "But there was no time in between."
For this trip, Drees and her climbing team has to prepare for radical weather changes.
In the direct sunlight, the temperature can reach 80 degrees, but there is also a possibility of getting stuck in a snowstorm and 40-below-zero temperatures, Drees said.
The trip costs about $2,000, all of which is coming from the team's pocket, Drees said.
Drees had to buy gear that will keep her warm in the extreme winter conditions.
While Drees can hit the gym and buy all of the equipment and food she needs, there is one thing a woman from the Kansas prairie can't prepare for. Higher altitude.
"The hardest thing is going to be the altitude." Drees said. "The altitude adjustment is something I can't train to. I need to drink lots of water, and as as fit as possible, read a lot about the mountain and know what the dangers are."
One danger is acute mountain sickness, which causes headaches, fluid in the lungs and coughing up blood.
According to the MedlinePlus Medical Encyclopedia, the illness is caused by reduced atmospheric pressure and decreased oxygen at high altitudes.
Drees plans on combating problems by drinking four gallons of water a day, which she will boil snow to get.
For four weeks, Dress and the rest of the team will not shower.

Drees said she doesn't notice the smell.

Points system for football bad idea
As much of an uproar as the Athletics Department caused when it instituted the priority points seating plan for men's basketball last season, there seems to be little doubt now that economically it was the right move.
When word of the plan came out, athletics director Lew Perkins was criticized for only caring about money. Fans complained — some loudly — about being moved to different seats. Some even refused to renew their season tickets, but there were others, names stacked in waiting lists, who were ready to fill in the gaps.
At the end of it all, there was little danger of Allen Fieldhouse not continuing to sell out, and sure enough, the fans filed in this season just as they always have, maybe muttering under their breaths a little about more expensive tickets or less impressive seats, but still paying and still staving.
Score one for the Athletics Department.
Football, however, could be another story. With plans in place to initiate a similar points system for football seating next fall, a system that ties the quality of season ticket holders' seats to their donations to the Williams Fund, a curious question arises. Shouldn't the department focus on filling Memorial Stadium's seats for every game before it makes them more expensive?
After all, Kansas football, unlike its basketball counterpart, isn't exactly the pride of the Big 12 Conference — a 37-66 record during the past nine seasons, one bowl appearance in that time and an average home attendance that is well below capacity and ranks near the bottom of the Big 12. Those aren't numbers that shriek, "Raise ticket prices." And yet, at least for some season ticket holders, that's exactly what the Athletics Department is doing.
But that's not how Jim Marchiony, associate athletics director, describes it. He said the plan was about rewarding contributors to Kansas athletics, not raising ticket prices, necessarily. He also said the department made a commitment a year and a half ago to apply the points system to football and to renge on that commitment now would be unfair to people who had donated to the Williams Fund expecting their contributions to affect their football seating.
But what about fairness to people like Garnett resident Gordon Myers? Myers has contributed to Kansas athletics for eight years, not through the Williams Fund, but by dropping the dough to snag season tickets for a losing football program. He's been a stalwart in the stands for nearly a decade, his support for the team never flagging, even in the face of embarrassing loss after embarrassing loss.
Next season, however, Myers said by his calculations he would have to pay a couple thousand dollars more just to

Position up for grabs
Starting quarterback job will be battled among two, possibly three
BY RYAN COLAIANNI
rcolaianni@kansan.com
KANSAN SPORTWRITER
When Jason Swanson — a junior college quarterback arrived on campus a little more than a year ago, he was virtually unknown.
It's amazing what a difference a year makes. Swanson, San Diego junior, struggled at times to grasp the offense last season. Any quarterback who comes into a new system can encounter the same difficulties.
"I knew I wasn't going to come in here and be Michael Jordan as soon as I got here. It was going to take work, it was going to take time," Swanson said.
Coach Mark Mangino gave Swanson about 60 to 70 percent of the snaps during Wednesday's scrimmage session and said that his command of the offense was improving.
Swanson will likely battle sophomore Adam Barmann for the starting job until the season opens on Sept. 3 against Florida Atlantic at Memorial Stadium.
Swanson had improved the most since the season ended in November, Mangino said.
QB CANDIDATES
♦ Jason Swanson, Junior
Noteable: Took the majority of snaps in April 6 practice.
♦ Adam Barmann, Soph.
Noteable: Incumbent.
♦ Brian Luke, Junior
Noteable: Filled in for Swanson and John Nielsen in narrow loss to No. 6 Texas on Nov. 13.
Source: Kansas Athletics Department
"Adam Barmann has gotten better since last year — Jason Swanson has made some leaps from last year." Mangino said.
Mangino said there was no front runner for the starting quarterback position, but Swanson and Barmann were ahead of junior Brian Luke.
Swanson attributed his improvement to becoming more comfortable with the offensive system at Kansas.
"I feel a lot more confidence because I know the offense a lot better than I did last year. It's like second nature like it was at Juco," Swanson said. "I can make a lot of checks that I couldn't make last year."

Swimmer achieves trial time
Dreams came true in Indianapolis, Ind., when senior swimmer Amy Gruber qualified for the 2008 Olympic Trials on Tuesday.
Qualifying for the trials was "one of those things out there that I've wanted to get," Gruber said.
SWIMMING TIMES
Gruber swam a time of 57.09 seconds in the preliminary race of the 100-meter freestyle, breezing past the 57.19 seconds that was needed to qualify for the trials. In the final race of the 100-meter freestyle, Gruber clocked in at a 57.25 seconds, which landed her 22nd overall in the event.

Now that Gruber has a qualifying time, she doesn't know exactly what she's going to do with it.

Although she's happy about her race and Olympic qualifying time, Gruber thinks that she hit her career high at the Big 12 Conference meet this year. That meet was swam in yards, providing for the great time differential from the World Championship Trials.
"Part of me wants to take a break but then I think maybe I should just go swim," Gruber said. "I haven't really decided now."
Tuesday concluded an amazing career at the University for
Gruber. In her four-year tenure, she was named Big 12 Conference Swimmer of the Month twice. Gruber is also part of the 800-yard freestyle and

200-yard medley relay teams. She is the only swimmer on the team who has attended four NCAA Championships in her four consecutive seasons with the lavhawks.
Should Gruber take the
break that she's considering, she plans to be around next season.
"Hopefully I'll help out with the team as a fifth year," she said.
Gruber said that right now she just needed a break from swimming because it has been such a long season. She was one of two Jayhawks to compete at the NCAA Championships, and she was the only Jayhawk to go to the World Championship Trials.
Knowing that her eligibility is concluded at Kansas is hard for Gruber to believe.
"I don't think it's hit me yet," Gruber said.

"I think we're real close to breaking through," Price said. "The freshmen on this team are making great progress. The big thing for us is the guys at the top of the lineup — Matt Baty, Ritchie Price and A.J. Van Slyke — they've got to play at the level

KANSAN SPORTWRITER
The University of Kansas 1st Varsity 8 team stretched toward the finish line ahead of the University of Texas team last spring on the Kansas River at Burcham Park River. The Jayhawks travels to Manhattan tomorrow for the Kansas Cup starting at 9 a.m. Kansas looks to win the cup for the seventh-straight time.
The Kansas women's rowing team is riding on momentum going into tomorrow's rival match-up with Kansas State. The rivalry begins tomorrow in Manhattan. The races for the Kansas Cup will begin at 9 a.m.
Last year, the regatta was hosted in Lawrence, with the Jayhawks beating the Wildcats in every event, except for the Second Novice Eight.
"We pretty much swept it," senior rower Rachel Chapman said. "K-State usually beats us in the fall, and we usually beat them in the spring, but hopefully we'll beat them next year in the fall."
Chapman is confident that the typical spring success will carry over again tomorrow.
"We've developed a lot of new technique," she said. "I think it'll be like last year, hopefully better. I'm looking forward to it."
When competing against a rival, it is easy to look forward to winning.
"We expect to beat K-State," coach Rob Catloth said. "When you race against your rival, you don't want to get beat. That's part of our goal."
"The plan is always to keep improving and build from one weekend to the next," he said. "We want
Kansas is approaching the regatta with K-State after a successful weekend of winning all the varity races against Tulsa and Drake. Catloth is hoping the motivation will carry over.
The K-State team struggled in last weekend's regatta in the San Diego Crew Classic. The team competed against teams such as Central Florida, Sacramento State and Miami. The Varsity Eight boat made the finals, but after the first 1,000 meters, K-State lost its third place position and struggled to get back to it. The team ended up taking sixth place.
"It was good that we made the finals, but we didn't make it to the end like we wanted," K-State coach Patrick Sweeney said. "I was pleased with the way they rowed and their
performance, but I was disappointed with the mishap to strike for the lead."
The team has made a lot of changes throughout its season.
"I've been trying different line-ups and changing seats." Sweeney said. "I'm trying to see where people will fit. We're going to make some changes for this weekend to see if it'll work. I'll have a good idea after this weekend."
Sweeney is not too concerned with his team's times tomorrow. Since rowing is an outdoor sport, it's hard to set a goal for a time because of the variance in weather, he said.
Chapman is anticipating weather that is not as nice as last weekend.
"It'll probably be pretty windy, so I'm not expecting any phenomenal times from us," she said. "What we have to do is start out strong, that's the key to our success. We have to stay strong, especially in the first 350 meters."
The order of the races will be: Second Novice Eight, First Novice Eight, Second Novice Eight and First Varsity Eight. The order is subject to change. The dual will be held on the Tuttle Creek Lake Reservoir.

Rain threatening golf tournament

The Kansas men's golf team might see some of the rain that caused a five-and-a-half hour delay at the first round of the 69th Masters Tournament, in Augusta, Ga., yesterday.
Today, the Jayhawks are in Holly Springs, N.C., to begin first and second round play at the Courtyard by Marriott Intercollegiate at Devils Ridge Golf Club.
Junior golfer Luke Trammell lines up a putt on the back nine of Alvamar Golf Course. The men's golf team will compete at a tournament in Holly Springs, N.C., today and tomorrow.
The forecast is for light rain in the morning and scattered thunderstorms in the late afternoon. If the rain stays to a minimum, it could allow players to post some low scores.
It would be beneficial to the Jayhawks if that the tournament were not cancelled, because a strong showing in what is a difficult 15-team field could move Kansas up in the national rankings.
The team enters the event ranked 32nd in the nation by Golfweek magazine.
Kansas enters today coming off of a second-place finish at the 59th Western Intercollegiate in San Jose, Ca. on March 29. The Jayhawks are playing in their last tournament before the Big 12 Championships, which begin April 29.
The Jayhawks finished second in the event last year at MacGregor Downs Country Club in Carv. N.C.
Duke, Tennessee, Georgia Southern and Wake Forest all rank in
the top 20 in the national polls and are all part of the tournament field.
"We've played very well in our last four tournaments," Randall said. "If we be playing the way we've been playing, we should do pretty well."
Coach Ross Randall said that it would take a lot to win in a field with so many great teams, but he said he liked his team's chances.
The Jaj Hawkws will start senior Kevin Ward, sophomore Tyler Docking, sophomore Gary Woodland, junior Pete Krsnich and junior Luke Trammell.
Trammell will be making his third consecutive start of the spring. He
made his first start at the Stevinson Ranch Invitational in Stevinson, Ca., filling in for injured senior, Andrew Price. Price tore a ligament in his hand in early March, and may be ready to play in the Big 12 Championships.
"It's disappointing for Andrew, and it's upsetting for all of us to see a guy like him go down," Trammell said. "But I'm feeling pretty good with my game, and I feel pretty confident for all of us this weekend."

Saturday will be important for players who didn't see regular time this fall. It will also be an opportunity for players like middle blocker Kristin Buehler, who took a redshirt in the fall, to participate for the first time.
"It's a win-win situation for us," Bechard said. "It gives the kids an opportunity to show us what they can do."
Admission to the scrimmage will be free. The Jayhawks will play their first of three matches at 10 a.m. against UMKC. The Jayhawks will also play at 1 p.m. against Fort Hays State and 3 p.m. against Nebraska-Omaha.

Tigers defeat Royals again, 7-3
Kansas City Royals shortstop Angel Berroa avoids Detroit Tigers' Dmitri Young after trying to field an errant throw from second baseman Tony Graffenino in the seventh inning of yesterday's game in Detroit. Detroit's Carlos Guilien and Ivan Rodriguez scored on Graffenino's error. The Tigers beat the Royals, 7-3.

DETROIT — No matter how bad his spring was, Jason Johnson always believed he could pitch.
After running up a 7.97 spring training ERA that cost him a planned opening-day start, Johnson pitched 6-2-3 shutout innings in his first outing of the season and helped the Detroit Tigers beat the Kansas City Royals 7-3 yesterday.
"I thought that was the most blown-out-of-proportion thing ever," Johnson said. "I thought spring training was for getting your mechanics straight, and that's what I was doing. By the end of the spring, that's what I had done."
Kansas City starter Zack Greinke was hit by a line drive off the bat of Detroit's Carlos Guillen, struck just above the right wrist with one out in the third inning. After being examined by team trainers, the right-hander threw some test pitches, then was replaced by Nate Field. The game was 0-0 at the time.
Johnson allowed five hits, struck out four and walked one.
"He pitched outstanding," Tigers manager Alan Trammell said. "He really was the difference in the game."
Kansas City said Greinke sustained a bruised forearm, and he doesn't think he will miss any
The game was scoreless after five innings, but Johnson finally got some support from his offense. Rondell White homered and Ivan Rodriguez, starting his second sea-
starts.
Johnson felt the slow offensive start helped him.
"I love having all the runs, don't get me wrong," he said. "But when you don't have them, you have to go out there and pitch the best you can."
son with Detroit, had his sixth four-
hit game with the Tigers.
Detroit took two of three, winning an opening series for the second consecutive season. Kansas City won the season from the Tigers 11-8 last year, its fifth straight season advantage against Detroit
Mike Wood (0-1), the third of five Kansas City pitchers, allowed three runs and four hits in 2 2-3 innings.
"I've never been hit like that in my life," he said. "I'm usually pretty good at that play, but I never even saw the ball. At first, I was surprised that it didn't hurt, but then I realized my whole arm was numb.
“Once I started to throw, it felt better, but it wasn't worth the risk of doing further damage to something and being out for a while.”
Neither team got a runner past second until White's long solo homer off Wood in the sixth.
"It felt good — it felt like 440 maybe," White said. "We just wanted to be a run for J. J., because he was pitching great and we weren't scoring."
Detroit added six runs in the seventh to make it 7-0. Guillen hit an RBI single, Rodriguez had a run-scoring double off third baseman Mark Teahen's glove, second baseman Tony Graffanino throw away White's grounder, which could have been an inning-end double play, for an error as two runs scored, and Carlos Pena and Bobby Higginson added RBI singles.

Royals player catches praise
BY STEVE BRISENDINI THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — If John Buck's offensive skills grow to match his defensive prowess, the Kansas City Royals might not be able to afford John Buck someday.
For now, they're just happy to have the talented catcher behind the plate, and hope he continues to get better at it.
"He's going to be one of the best in the big leagues," general manager Allard Baird said. "He's under 2.0 (seconds) to second base, well above average blocking skills behind the plate _ and he's already one of the best receivers in the majors."

pace.
In baseball parlance, that means the 24-year-old Buck — expected to start his first home opener Monday when the Rovals host the Detroit Tigers
excels at working with pitchers to tailor his game plan to theirs.
"There's always a learning curve with catchers learning
pitching staff, but John works extremely hard at getting to know his pitchers," said left-handed starter Brian Anderson. "He's not the brain-dead type that's going to try the same sequence with every pitch. He works hard to know what you do well and how you like to pitch."
And in at least one case, that rapport is starting to border on the instinctive.
"He came up to me after one inning and said, 'You know, on that one pitch to Timo Perez I was thinking about going backdoor curveball or slider, like a sidearm one,' which I haven't thrown all spring training," right-hander Zack Greinke said after an exhibition outing last month in Surprise, Ariz. "And during that same pitch, I was going, 'Dude, I really want to throw a sidearm curveball."

they're capable of in order for us to get to the next level."
Oklahoma (17-11, 3-3 Big 12) dropped two of three against Baylor last weekend. The Sooners are led offensively by junior third baseman Ryan Rohlinger. He tops the list of Sooner hitters with a .542 average. He boasts a .468 slugging percentage and has driven in 25 runs this season.
"We won the series there two years ago," Price said. "It's a great opportunity for us to edge closer to .500 in league."
Freshman right-hander Brad Burns has been the team's most effective pitcher. He has a record of 2-0 with a 3.32 ERA in eight appearances. He has struck out 28 batters while walking 17 in 38 innings pitched. Opponents are hitting just .233 against him.
Burns left Saturday's 5-2 victory against Baylor in the fifth inning with a sore shoulder. His status is uncertain for this weekend's series.
"They have very good starting pitching and are on the verge of breaking into the top 25.
First pitch for today's game is slated for 7 p.m. Kansas will start senior Mike Zagurski (4-2, 4.06 ERA). Sophomore Sean Land (3-2, 5.40) will start Saturday's game, and junior Kodiak Quick (7-3, 3.51) will start Sunday's match.
Price says that Oklahoma is a better team than its record indicates.
"Offensively, they are a shortgame kind of team. They try to get guys on and move runners along and score without the big hit."
"We don't really care who's in that other dugout," Scholl said. "We play tough teams in the Big 12, and we aren't going to be intimidated like some people might think."
"They've played a really difficult nonconference schedule," Price said.
Kansas first baseman Andy Scholl said the team would not be intimidated by the Sooners.
Price said the Jayhawks would have a good chance to leave Norman victorious.

"Everybody that wants a KU football ticket has a KU football ticket," Myers said. "I have to make several phone calls just to give away four tickets."
Of course, at least that's something he won't have to worry about anymore, because Myers is one Jayhawk fan who won't be helping to fill empty Memorial Stadium seats at every game next season.
Myers just doesn't understand why people should have to pay more to keep the seats they've had for years when so many seats remain empty every game.
keep the four seats he has some 30 rows up between the 15- and 20-vard lines.
"Pride kind of gets in the way," he said. "I don't want to go back to the bowl or the end zones."
Why should he have to? Myers has invested nearly a decade of season tickets into a losing program, and instead of being rewarded, he's being priced out of his seats.
He doesn't plan on doing it. Nor does he plan on settling for lesser seats. Instead, Myers, who describes himself as a diehard Kansas football fan, is just not going to buy season tickets for next year, a decision he said a couple of his friends had also made about their tickets.
Marchiony said the department was concerned about how the points system could affect attendance at football games, but he said most ticket holders were reacting in an understanding fashion.
Still, even assuming Myers represents the minority, defections like his don't bode well for a program trying to boost attendance, not just maintain it.

Kansas defeated K-State 31-28, on the strength of Swanson's pass.
Position
Swanson has been working on his fundamentals this spring.
Swanson started one game but played in seven last season. Swanson's highlight was when he entered the fourth quarter against Kansas State and threw a 31-yard go-ahead touchdown to Mark Simmons that gave the Jayhawks the lead for good.
"I am trying to improve my reading ability from the snap. I need to make better throws in clutch situations, when blitzes are coming," Swanson said.

For the season Swanson threw two touchdowns and passed for 238 yards.
Mangino said it was important for his quarterbacks to be consistent and not just have four or five good throws in a row.
Swanson heaved a pass into the back of the endzone, which Murph dove for and cradled in his hands.
New receivers include freshman Marcus Herford, who potentially may switch from quarterback, and Brian Murph, who transferred to Kansas in January.
"Once he gets his plays he is going to be a great addition," Swanson said. "That's one of the guys you can throw a fade ball to, he is going to get the ball. He is fast, and he has great hands. I am really looking forward to getting him a ball during the season."
Swanson was able to complete difficult passes to new receivers Wednesday. He has worked with some for just a few practices this spring.

HOROSCOPES
- Today's Birthday. You can go farther, faster this year than you ever have before. Don't get arrogant, however. You could also trip over your own words. Be nice and you'll win big.
- Aries (March 21-April 19) Today is an
8. Travel conditions are better now,
and stay good through tomorrow. Be
watching for ways to increase your
income. They're out there.
- Taupe (April 20-May 20) Today is a 4.
You may feel like you're being squashed under a heavy load. Stay calm, and know the others appreciate what you're doing for them.
+ Gemini (May 21-June 21) Today is a 9. You're drawn to join a congenial group of fun-loving activists. If you're worried because you don't know them yet, ask a friend to go along.
+ Cancer (June 22-July 22) Today is a 5.
It's like you're taking your oral exam
for your doctoral dissertation. Stand
up straight and speak decisively and you'll do very well.
- Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) Today is a 10. It may feel as though you're being drawn outside of your old self. You're learning, expanding, and becoming more spiritual and wise. Seek, and ye shall find.
- *Virgo* (Aug. 23-Sep. 22) Today is a 4.
You're good at sorting and filing, and remembering where things go. And, over the next couple of days, you can find the funding you seek. Start with calls to old friends.
- Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Today is a 7. A very interesting, passionate. A person would like to be your coach. Are you willing to learn something you thought was beyond your capabilities? Just say "yes."
- Scopio (Oct, 23-Nov. 21) Today is a 5.
The only way to calm your anxiety now is to force yourself to superhuman achievements. Don't worry the money will follow.
- Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Today is you. You could be so full of love today and tomorrow, you're about to burst. What, did you get a new litter of puppies or something? Enjoy yourself.
- + Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Today is a 5. There so much going on at home, it's hard to keep it all straight. Actually, it might be impossible, Lead, follow and-or get out of the way.
- Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Today is an
8. You're so immersed in your studies
now, you may be oblivious to every-
thing else that's going on. Best to stay
in a safe place.
- Pices (Feb. 19-March 20) Today is a 5.
Ask for the praise, promotion or contract that's more to your benefit. The odds are good you'll get it now, even if you've been turned down before.

WOMEN'S GOLF
Tournament could decide regional bid
The women's golf team will play in the Lady Boilermaker Invitational this weekend, the last tournament before the Big 12 Conference Championship.
Tomorrow at 8 a.m. in West Lafayette, Ind., the Jayhawks will tee off on the Kampen Course, part of Birck Boilermaker Golf Complex.
The tournament is a shotgun start, meaning everyone in the tournament tees off at the same time, from different holes. Kansas will play 36-holes tomorrow and the final 18holes on Sunday in the tournament hosted by Purdue University.
Kansas will compete against Big 12 conference foes Texas A&M and Iowa State, plus 11 other schools, the majority of which come from the Big 10 conference. Because Kansas is on the bubble for a regional bid, each tournament could be an opportunity to move up in the rankings.
"Right now we're ranked 22nd and they take 21 teams," sophomore Amanda Costner said. "It's just going to take us going out there and playing three rounds of golf well."
After the tournament, the Big 12 Conference Championship in Austin, Texas, will be the Jayhawks' last chance to make a move toward regions. The championship, which will be on April 22-24, will be on the same course Kansas played earlier this year at the Betsy Rawls Longhorn Invitational.
At the time, coach Erin O'Neil called the tournament "a Big 12 preview." The Jayhawks did not finish as well as they would have liked, but improved dramatically the last day, shooting 10.5 strokes better than the average of the first two days.
Once this weekend's tournament ends, Kansas has 11 days to work on its game before its biggest tournament of the year so far.

Five top-10 finishes highlight meet's first day

KANSAN SWITTERWRITE
The Kansas track and field team started strong yesterday at the Texas Relays with five top-10 finishes.
With two days left at the relays, many Jayhawks have yet to compete. But the ones that did made a statement.
The men's 3,200-meter relay team finished second behind Southern California.The team's time of 7:24:88 shot them above Big 12 Conference rivals Baylor and Oklahoma.
Chris Jones and Colby Wissell placed sixth and eighth in the men's 5,000-meter run. Jones finished with a time of 14:51:59. Wissell finished with the time of 15:05:44.
Paige Higgins also fared well in the 5,000-meter run. The senior finished seventh overall with a time of 17:29.70. Higgins is a car-
moist for The University Daily Kansan.
Jen Widerstrom, fresh off of her record-breaking performance last weekend at the Missouri Relays, finished fifth in the women's hammer throw. She broke her previous KU record at Missouri with a throw of 55.50 meters. The junior's throw of 58.48 meters at the Texas Relays broke it again. She ranks third in the Big 12 in the hammer throw.
Sheldon Battle, ranked first in the Big 12 in the shot put, finished fourth in the event with the throw of 60.44 meters. The junior was coming off his victory in the hammer throw last weekend at the Missouri Relays. Battle's hammer throw ranks fifth in the Big 12.
"I'm just trying to execute the technique. The throws are not
"I didn't fare as well as I would have liked," Battle said. "I don't think anyone threw as they would have liked."
near where I want to be," Widerstrom said.
In the 400-meter hurdles, Aaron Thompson and Lantz Tolson failed to make it to the finals, which are later this weekend. Thompson, a junior, finished 18th with a time of 52.86 seconds. Tolson, a junior, finished 46th with a time of 57.49 seconds.
Janiece Gatson finished 30th in the 400-meter hurdle preliminaries. The sophomore finished with a time of 1.03.30.

Kansas coach Stanley Redwine said there was room for improvement, even for the team's top finishers.
"We can't be afraid of competition," Redwine said. "To prepare in meets like this, it's a step in the right direction. They're starting off with great confidence to prepare them for the end of the season."

Mickelson, Singh lead Master's pack
BY DOUG FERGUSON THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
AUGUSTA, Ga. — Opening Day at the Masters brought some familiar sights yesterday — first the rain, then the names atop the leaderboard that included defending champion Phil Mickelson and world No. 1 Viayi Singh.
But don't get the idea this was just another typical day at Augusta National.
score on a hole (14) and the highest round (106).
Tiger Woods hit an eagle putt that went off the green and into Rae's Creek. Ernie Els spent more time in the trees than in the fairway. Former champion Billy Casper returned to the Masters for the first time in three years and made history with the highest
Jack Nicklaus teed off to a heartfelt ovation in what might be his last Masters.
And when a wet and wacky start to the 69th Masters ended in darkness, Palmer was on the leaderboard — not four-time winner Arnold Palmer, but Masters rookie Ryan Palmer.
Of the 24 players who managed to squeeze in the first round, Mark Hensley of Australia was the clubhouse leader at 3-under 69, showing that Augusta National doesn't have to be crusty and firm to be a brute.
Chris DiMarco, who showed Mickelson the line on his winning putt last year, birdied three
straight holes and was atop the leaderboard at 4 under par with four holes still to play.
Luke Donald of England was another shot behind and four holes left in his first round, while the group at 2 under included Mickelson, Singh, Palmer, Retief Goosen and Stuart Appleby.
Players were to return at 9:45 a.m. to complete the first round, and barring any more weather delays, the tournament should be back to normal by the weekend.
This was the ninth time in 15 tournaments that weather interrupted play, and the fourth straight week of rain.
Trying to hold down his No.1 ranking, Singh was a model of consistency in a first round that
was out of whack before players even arrived at Augusta National
- tee times were pushed back five times as more than an inch of rain fell, leading to a 5 1/2-hour delay and players starting from both tees.
Along with picking up three birdies on the front nine, Singh twice saved par with 10-foot putts. His only bogey came on the 11th hole, the last one he played before the round was suspended, leaving him at 2 under.
Mickelson was all smiles when he stepped to the first tee, looking not much differently from when he left the Masters last year wearing a green jacket. He opened with a bogey, but kept himself out of trouble most of the day and
gave himself ample birdie chances.
Goosen, the forgotten figure in all the hype over the "Big Four," made a rare birdie on the par-5 12th, then recovered from a tee shot into the azaleas on the par-5 13th to escape with par.
It wasn't the fast, fiery course most players wanted to see, conditions that have not been around for the Masters since the course was super-sized three years ago.
Based on the scoring, they might be thankful for the rain.
Even with the greens soft and holding approach shots, only 10 of the 92 players were under par, and already there were five scores at 80 or higher among those who finished.

Richard Johnson, associate vice provost and dean of students at the University of Kansas, was terminated Friday following a formal investigation.
On March 30, the University received a formal complaint against Johnson, said Lynn Bretz, director of University Relations. Immediate
action was taken, and Johnson was informed of the complaint.
Johnson was put on administrative leave with pay on March 31 pending a formal investigation by the department of human resources.
He was fired based on the the investigation, but because of the personal nature of the complaint, no further details could be provided. Bretz said.
Kyle Stearns, Derby junior, said
he was stunned when he heard the news.
Johnson mentored Stearns last semester for his minor in leadership studies. The two often discussed how Stearns was growing as a student.
Johnson called Stearns himself with the news.
Stearns said Johnson was crying on the phone, and the conversation ended quickly.
"I was bewildered," he said. "I just don't know any other adjective to use."
With only five weeks left in the semester, Stearns said it was important to focus on getting through the semester.
He also said what Johnson did for the University spoke for itself, despite his unexplained termination.
The needs of students are the primary concerns at the time, Bretz said.
Frank DeSalvo, director of Counseling and Psychological Services, was named interim dean of students and will help the Office of Student Success pull together and finish the semester strong, Bretz said.

Fallen soldier added in stone
WWII soldier remembered on Campanile after 55 years
Mary
Jane Cunningham's knuckles turned white as she held on to the rectangular block of granite. Engraved on the stone was "Raleigh C. Bowlby," the name of her late husband, who was killed in WWII 61 years ago, last Friday.
"It's beautiful," she said. "I think I'd like it at the foot of his grave."
It was the first time she had seen the memorial that commemorated the fallen soldiers
from the University of Kansas, on which the name of her late husband was forgotten.
His name was added to the middle column of names on the east side of the Campanile in
Februarv.
Cunningham was given the replica on Saturday during a special dedication ceremony of the addition of his name to the Campanile.
Thirteen of Bowby's family members, Chancellor Robert Hemenway, Jeff Weinberg, assistant to the chancellor, Warren Corman, university architect, and a color guard from the United States Armed Forces attended the ceremony.

Megan Tear almost threw thousands of dollars of "Wheel of Fortune" winnings into the fire Saturday.
After spinning the wheel seven times, Trear, Olpe graduate student, decided to solve the puzzle.
"Sipping hot cocoa in the open fire!" Nope. Not right.
"AAAAAAAWWWWWW," the audience moaned.
She said disappointment was the first thought that popped into her mind.
She gave it to Pat Sajak, host of the show, and spun the wheel three more times. She chose the letters "C," "P" and "Y."
Tear filled the few remaining blank spots
Then came money, a Swiss Alps vacation and a membership to Gold's Gym — all from one round.
"Sipping hot cocoa by the fire!"
By the end of the game she won $20,350 worth of cash and prizes.
"I'm going to pay off my law school student loans," Trear said. "And take my family on vacation."
Trear wasn't the only Jayhawk to win from the Wheel's Big 12 College Week, which was taped in Bartle Hall. Kansas City, Mo.
puzzles and walked away with $5,100.
Ricky Fursetzer, Minnetonka,
minn. sophomore, won four out of six
He planned to use his winnings to visit his grandma in Las Vegas.
Fursetzer almost had a European vacation but he guessed the wrong letter.
"It landed on Europe and I knew what the puzzle was, I was going to solve the whole thing." Fursetzer said. "I was staring at the letter "R" but I meant to say "D" and I'm going to be beating myself up for it."
The puzzle answer: "Where the deer and antelope play twister."
He won $3,000 from two toss-up rounds and solved one puzzle that was "I before E. except after C."
The episodes with Fursetzer and Trear will be aired the third week of May.
Bands from the University of Kansas and Missouri University played during commercials, before and after the show.
After the taping of Trear's show, Pat Sajak danced in the aisle with Big Jay while the bands played.
The energy level is a lot higher doing a show in a place such as Kansas City, Mo., than Los Angeles because television shows don't tape there very often. Saiak said.
"When you throw colleges on top of that, and bands and cheerleaders, it's almost exhausting to this poor, old host," he said. "But it's great fun."
Delta Force will try to put out fire alarms
BY ERIC SORRENTINO esorrentino@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Delta Force will try to curb the problem of false fire alarms in residence halls if it gets elected in this year's Student Senate elections.
Fire alarms would have packets of ink that would explode in all directions after the alarm was pulled. No residence halls at the University have fire alarms with this feature.
Edited by Nikola Rowe
"This is an accountability issue," Elaine Jardon, Delta Force presidential candidate and Overland Park sophomore, said. "The people who are pulling these false fire alarms are not being prosecuted in any way."
Student Housing offered a Crime Stoppers reward of $1,000 last semester to anyone with proof of who pulled false alarms in McCollum Hall.
One hundred six false fire alarms were pulled in residence halls last year. McCollum had 28 false fire alarms, more than any other residence hall on campus. Ellsworth Hall was second with 19.
Courtney Carabello, Brewster, N.Y., freshman, said she would be open to testing out a new system.
"I live on the 10th floor of McCollium and I can't count the amount of times I've had to run up and down the stairs," she said.
When this happens, waiting outside causes her sleep deprivation and a lack of concentration for classes the next day. Carabello said.
McCollum would be the first to test the new system because it has had the most false alarms historically. Delta Force would use funds from housing fees, Student Senate reserve accounts and Association of University Residence Halls reserve accounts.
Ken Stoner, director of student housing, said he was not familiar with fire alarms that sprayed ink but would be open to test the system.
Every McCollum fire alarm currently has a plastic covering. If a student were to pull a fire alarm, a purple gel would stick on his skin.
The problem with the gel, however, is that a person can wear gloves and walk out of the building unnoticed. The proposed ink would cause more of a scene and would be more difficult to clean off before the person evacuated the building, said Stephanie Craig, vice presidential candidate for Delta Force and Edmond, Okla., junior.
A person sprayed in ink would take as long for the police to find as a person sprayed in gel. But the ink would stay on for two to three days, giving police longer to search, Jardon said.
A few individuals were removed from McCollum last fall for tampering with fire equipment, Stoner said.

could go back to that question and answer that."
The event, a moderated conversation with the actor from "The Princess Bride" in the Crafton-Preyer Theatre, was sponsored by Friends of the Theatre as a fundraiser for University Theatre and a scholarship fund. More than $36,000 was raised for a new digital personal sound amplification system for hard-of-hearing patrons and a scholarship for film students.
Patinkin touched on several subjects. He told the crowd of about 600 that he decided to come to the University from his native Chicago for two reasons: He was told the University had a good theater program, and he followed a girl, Betsy Miller.
"I just loved Betsy Miller," Patinkin said. Unfortunately, Miller was already attached to someone else. Patinkin never even got a kiss. "And boy, oh boy, I tried." he said.
Patinkin, who attended the University from 1970 to 1972, said that he was called in to speak with the chancellor regarding his less-than-stellar academic record. Patinkin would have stayed at the University, but he was advised by several of his professors to apply for professional schools. One of those schools was the Julliard School in New York. To his surprise, Patinkin was accepted.
Despite his academic career, Patinkin was awarded an honorary doctorate from the North Carolina School of the Arts. He was also asked to teach a weekend of classes at Harvard. After his sessions at Harvard, Patinkin received a certificate to commemorate his contribution. The certificate, however, thanked Mandy Patinkin for "her" contributions. Someone suggested sending it back to be corrected.
"You kidding? You see it when you walk through my front door." Patinkin said.
sang a medley of songs associated with Patinkin as a slide show of his work played. There were also montages of his stage, film and television work.
The evening also included retrospectives of his work. At the beginning of the night a quintet of University students
In addition to the evening's conversation, Patinkin spent the afternoon in a master class at Swarthout Recital Hall. Students performed songs and scenes from plays for Patinkin to critique. Patinkin had Dylan Hilpman, Lawrence junior, sing his song from the musical "Titanic" as if he were in a job interview in order to help Hilpman identify points of connection in the song. Patinkin stressed the importance of connection in his work.
He said it was important to be connected to what an actor was saying, Patinkin said. Patinkin analyzes what the words of a song mean to him and what the song is trying to say before he performs.
It was an amazing, once-in-a-lifetime experience to work with someone as gifted as Mandy," said Carter Waite, Falmouth, Maine, sophomore. Waite performed a scene from "Amber Waves" with Kate Giessel, Larned junior. The scene was an emotional moment in the play and Patinkin helped the two connect that emotion with what they were saying. Elisabeth Ahrens attended both the workshop and the conversation. She said seeing Patinkin work reminded her of why she chose to pursue acting as a career.
"He shows that doing theater can be for more than entertainment," said the Topea senior. "Whether it's stage presence or star power, you can use art for change and for others to benefit from."
"We were hoping for an hour and a half; we got two hours. He even sang for us," said Kip Grosshans, president of Friends of the Theatre.
Patinkin closed the two-hour evening conversation by singing "If I Were a Rich Man" from "Fiddler on the Roof." The move surprised attendees.

years ago. The omission was discovered in the 1960s by Kathy Booth, the daughter of his widow. But it wasn't until last June that Booth called University Relations to question the missing name.
"Our intention was just to find out if he qualified," Booth said in a previous interview. "We wanted to see if they could just add his name to the archives."
Booth speculated that Bowlby's name was left off because neither her mother nor Bowley's parents had been contacted by the University.
Second Lieutenant Raleigh C. Bowlby Jr enlisted in the Army in February 1941, only three months short of graduating from the University.
He was killed in action near Cassino, Italy, on April 9, 1944.

teacher, Jerry Lonard, who worked on former South Dakota Sen. George McGovern's campaign.
"Even early on, Nick has always known what he has wanted to do," Marilyn Sterner said. "He has always been very ambitious and involved."
Serner first got involved in Student Senate when he was a freshman and met Student Senate's legislative director at the time. She convinced him to get involved in one of the committees.
Sterner's relationship with Senate extends even into his
personal life. Sterner has been dating Catherine Bell, a former student body vice president, for two years. Bell is in her first year of law school at Kansas.
"She has helped me out a lot throughout the election," Sterner said. "She puts things into perspective for me and gives some historical insight into the campaign."
Sterner knows that running for president for the KUnited coalition comes with some pressure. KUnited has not lost in a Senate election since becoming a coalition, and that makes Sterner and Jones the favorite for this year's election, KUnited's fourth.
"I like the tradition KUnited has and the pressure for excellence that comes with it," Sterner said.
After college, Sterner said he would probably go to law school or try to get his master's degree in business administration.

Stereotypes have never bothered jardon, as she said in high school she was the cheerleader who dated the captain of the football team.
"I did the Science Olympiad," Jardon said. "It doesn't get much worse than that."
Jardon said that before she dated the captain of the football team, she was a nerd in middle school.
She knows that she is different, but said she would never change who she was or what she stands for. Growing up in Johnson County, Jardon said everyone was basically the same. When she arrived at college she liked seeing how different people were, and that made her want to get involved in various
activities on campus.
Although Jardon has never served in Student Senate before, she still has a long list of activities at school. Besides being in a sorority, Jardon has been the Baby Jay mascot since last April and had also served on the homecoming committee in 2004, along with being a member of the scholarship hall selection committee.
Even though she hasn't served in Senate, Jardon said she had been thinking about running for president for a long time.
"It's time to change Senate," Jardon said. "I think we can be the ones to do that."
Her running mate, Stephanie Craig, thinks that she and Jardon can end Delta Force's three-year losing streak. Craig said that Elaine was a different type of candidate than past Delta Force candidates because she was more involved on campus and had a great understanding of how things work on campus.

STUDENT SENATE ELECTIONS
COALITION ENDORSEMENT
Delta Force's platform refreshing, unlike other coalitions promises
Useful, practical ideas set coalition apart from KUnited, Student Voice The University Daily Kansan editorial board invited each coalition's presidential and vicepresidential candidates to present their platforms and answer questions from the board.Afterwards,the editorial board decided to endorse Delta Force in this year's election
The Kansan editorial board believes that all of the candidates for Student Senate are dedicated, driven, young adults. There is no doubt in our mind that each of these young men and women care about the University, and care about how the student's money is spent.
about the University, and care about how the students money is spent. However, after carefully considering the three coalitions' initiatives and abilities, the editorial board has chosen to endorse Delta Force.
We believe the two most important qualities for our Senate to have are well planned goals, and the capacity to accomplish them. To that end, Delta Force's initiatives seem like more helpful and viable objectives than the other coalitions.
Though the condom dispenser plan will have to be hammered out in a cost-effective way, the free testing at Watkins Memorial Health Center is a no-brainer. How many students go without testing each year because they don't want to pay? How many students fear testing because they are afraid of their parents finding out they are sexually active?
Delta Force's Lovemaking Maintenance proposal is both rational and necessary. This program would implement free pregnancy and STD testing at Watkins Memorial Health Center, and put condom dispensers in University housing.
This plan could save lives, or at least prevent STDs, which are more prevalent than many students think.
Another initiative we liked was the False Fire Alarm freedom plan. This plan, obviously, is designed to curb the late night fire alarms being pulled, specifically in the residence halls at three in the morning.
Delta Force wants to equip the halls with new fire alarms that spray ink in all directions when pulled, in an attempt to discourage late-night pranksters and drunks. Fire alarms have been the bane of student's sleep for far too long. Though the plan needs a little work, we are glad to see Delta Force wants to fix this problem.
glad to see Dr. Palmer writes:
How many students attempt to hide in their closets or under their beds when they hear that obnoxious beeping? What if there was a real fire? Again, this plan will save the fire departments thousands of dollars because they have to take each alarm seriously. It could also potentially save lives.
It is practical, useful platforms like these that set the Delta Force coalition apart.
It is practical, useful platforms integrated with the KU United coalition, a perennial Student Senate powerhouse, has always proven itself to be an effective mover and shaker, but their lack of strong, practical initiatives leaves something to be desired this year.
For example, online parking ticket paying is a good idea, but it's a program that will most likely happen regardless of who wins these elections, just like online ticket redemption for basketball games. Even if KUnited were responsible for these changes, they should not be considered platforms for this year's coalition platform.
The Student Voice coalition, though armed with a well-spoken presidential candidate, is quite the opposite of KUnited. We felt they had strong, progressive ideas and goals, but no viable means with which to implement them.
Wireless Internet for the residence halls is a great idea, but too costly to realize. Allowing all students to submit legislation to Student Senate would just complicate things. Besides, students have a means of bringing viable issues to the Senate by means of contacting their senator.
In the end, the ideal coalition would have both the means to accomplish their goals, and goals worth accomplishing. In this respect, Delta Force is the coalition with the most practical plans.
Student Senate will spend over $500 of each students' money this year, make sure they are the candidates that have plans that will benefit you.
- Matt Sevcik writing for the editorial board.

Here at DELTA FORCE, we like sex, and a lot of it. So we're going to promote it with free condoms, then provide STD tests when the mass outbreak hits campus from so much free sex!
KUNITED likes promises. So, we're going to promise things that are going to happen anyway. That way, we'll never let anyone down! Ever!

Kansas comeback
Series ends with victory for Jayhawks
BY MATT WILSON

KANSAN SPORTWRITER
The Jayhawks made a comeback at yesterday's game after they lost two of three games to Oklahoma, dropping their third straight Big 12 Conference series.
At yesterday's game, the Jayhawks responded well, scoring seven runs in the first
inning. Senior outfielder Matt Baty kick-started the inning with a lead off single, his first of three hits on the day. The Price brothers were busy as well, with freshman second baseman Ryne Price homering and junior shortstop Ritchie Price singling in two runs and crossing the plate once.
The Jayhawks were on cruise control the rest of the way to win 9-3.
Junior pitcher Kodiak Quick picked up his Big 12-leading eighth victory against just three losses. Quick allowed three runs, struck out six batters and walked only two.
Ritch Price was pleased with the way the team bounced back to win yesterday.
Ritchie Price said he was disappointed but was glad to get that last victory.
"Down two games to none, you tell your players to keep fighting," he said.
"The two close losses were tough," he said. "Our defense needs to be better for us to be successful."
The Jayhawks started strong in their second game. Senior designated hitter Travis Dunlap kicked off the scoring with his second home run of the season. The inning was highlighted by
senior catcher Sean Richardson's two-run triple, giving Kansas an early 4-0 lead.
After pulling to within two runs, Oklahoma exploded in the fifth inning. Eight runners crossed the plate in large part to three Jayhawk errors and gave the Sooners a 10-4 lead. For the weekend, the Jayhawks committed a total of six errors.
ROWING
The Jayhawks rallied in the seventh inning. Kansas scored five runs to cut the lead to 10-9 behind junior outfielder Gus Milner's inside-the-park home run. It was his sixth homer of

The KU women's rowing First Novice Eight comes down the final stretch against the Kansas State First Novice Eight. The Jayhawks lost this race by six tenths of a second and another race by just half a second. Kansas State took home the Kansas Cup by winning three of the four races Saturday morning at Tuttle Creek Lake Resevoir in Manhattan.
Less than a second separated the Kansas women's rowing team from the Kansas Cup this weekend.
Kansas State edged out Kansas by one point.
This is the team's first loss in six years of Kansas Cup competition. The dual match-up was Saturday at the Tuttle Creek Lake Reservoir in Manhattan. K-State won 9-8.
Kansas lost three out of the four races, but each by only a few seconds. The lone victory came in the First Varsity Eight. Kansas finished in at 6:36.6 and K-State finished in 6:45.6.
"I'm really proud of them, especially the win from the Varsity Eight," coach Rob Catloth said. "I'm disappointed about not winning the team part, but it's good that we won that race."

Taking first in the First Varsity Eight is worth the most points.eight.
Winning the Second Varsity Eight earns five points, winning the First Novice Eight earns three and winning the Second Novice Eight earns one.
"I'm just ecstatic about this win," coxswain Crystal Reed said. "We never let up, stayed tall, and powered right through it. We got off of the water with a fabulous feeling."
The feeling was shared by the team. The victory was exciting for the whole team, assistant coach Jennifer Myers said.
All the other races ended with tight finishes. The Second Varsity Eight boat team crossed the finish line thinking it had
won. The team lost by less than a second, coming in at 6:33.3 with K-State at 6:32.8.

After K-State won two straight races, the last chance to take the Kansas Cup was a victory in the Second Novice Eight. The team couldn't pull in the point needed to win the regatta.
Reed called the regatta bitter sweet because she was happy about the victory, but wished the other boats could have placed first as well.
"These losses were just heartwrenching because they were so close," she said. "We missed the Kansas Cup by one point and we just needed those wins. I'm
happy about our boat, but I feel for the rest of them, to lose by a second basely."
The team also had to adjust to some of the uncontrollable elements, like rough water and high winds. Weather conditions are always a variable in the team's regattas, Catloth said.
Next weekend the team travels to Camden, N.J., to compete
in the Knecht Cup. April 16-17. The regatta brings in anywhere from 20 to 40 teams.
"Coming off these past two weeks, we'll see what we can do against these teams," Reed said. "Last year, we made so many progressive steps. This year, we're going all out."

The Kansas track and field team finished the Texas Relays with Texas-sized performances.
The highlight of the relays was the men's distance medley relay, the only first place finish for Kansas at the Texas Relays. Senior Jeremy Mims, juniors Benson Chesang and Cameron Schwehr, and freshman Matt Baysinger earned the first-place finish with the time of 9:40.95.
"Distance medley is an event that Arkansas has owned," coach Stanley Redwine said. "It was good for those guys to beat them."
Senior Amy Linnen continued her record-setting year with a second-place finish in the pole vault. Linnen's vault of 13 feet, 7.25 inches is second in the Kansas record books for women's outdoor pole vault. Her training partner, freshman Ekaterina Sultanova, finished fourth with the vault of 13 feet, 3.5 inches.
"One good thing between the two is experience," Redwine said. "With a senior and a freshman, Amy has more than Kate, and both of them are doing extremely well."
The second half of the track and field team had success at the State Farm Invitational in Emporia. Sophomore Kara Euler won the women's 200-

Coming into her college golf career, Amanda Costner had a goal to win a tournament. Now she can say she has.
Costner, a sophomore, won her first collegiate tournament during the weekend at the Lady Boilermaker Invitational in West Lafayette, Ind., shooting a one-over-par three day total of 217.
"I was nervous, but I kept telling myself one shot at a time," Costner said. "I knew I could do it with my teammates and coach supporting me."
Costner finished three strokes ahead of Camille Blackerby of Texas Christian and Nicole Melton of Texas A&M.

T h e Jayhawks collectively shot a total of 912, a score good enough to finish sixth out of 13 teams, which was their best finish so far this spring.
Costner led the way, and O'Neill said her play was a catalyst for the rest of the team.
"They were very consistent," coach Erin O'Neill said. "It was a good showing, and we actually see some of the work we've been doing pay off."
"They are looking to see what she's doing," O'Neill said. "It will help motivate them to work harder."
Costner's key to winning was consistency. Her scores for each round were 73, 71 and another 73. She said she played steadily all weekend and didn't have any big scores. Preparation was another reason she played as well as she did.
"Well, lately our team has been working on short game, such as wedge shots and knockdown shots," she said. "That helped prepare me for this tournament because I had a lot of those."
To stay calm and patient throughout the tournament, Costner said she thought about her routine and swing. She went into the last day with the same mindset as the first two rounds, even though she was tied for the

Tiger claws his way to Masters victory
- Edited by Nikola Rowe

BY DOUG FERGUSON THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
AUGUSTA, Ga. — Tiger Woods is the Masters champion once again, turning back a surprising challenge yesterday with a shot of sheer magic and a birdie putt to win a playoff he never expected.
A spectacular finish of birds and boges finally ended when Woods produced the most important shot of all — a 15-foot birdie putt on the first extra hole to capture his fourth green jacket and finally put away the gritter Chris DiMarco.
Woods knew it was over when the ball was a foot from the hole, taking two steps to the left as a smile broke out on his face and his right fist punched the air with fury.
Everything else about this Masters was up in the air to the very end.
First came the most improbable birdie on the par-3 16th, when Woods skipped his chip shot up the slope and watched it crawl 25 feet down to the cup, where it paused for 2 full seconds before dropping.
"I would rank that as one of the best ones I've ever hit," Woods said. "It turned things around. It was pretty huge."
Woods closed with a 1-under 71 and won for the second time in a playoff at a major, wrapping up a long and bizarre week at Augusta National that included two rain delays, an eagle putt that Woods rolled off the green and into the creek, a
Then came an even bigger surprise. The greatest closer in golf looked like a first-timer at Augusta National, making a mess out of the last two holes to finish with two bogeys and allow DiMarco one more chance.
record run of birds to get back into the contention and, finally, the fight of his life.
When the ball disappeared, DiMarco walked slowly to Woods to congratulate him.
Woods made sure that was all he got.
DiMarco again came up short of the green, and chipped up for a tap-in in. He took his hat off and ran his hand through his hair, crouched and kept looking up at Woods and down at his feet, afraid to watch, perhaps knowing what was about to happen.
He now has nine majors for his career, halfway home to the standard set by lack Nicklaus.
Tiger Woods goes to his knees after missing his birdie put on the 11th green during final round play of the 2005 Masters at the Augusta National Golf Club in Augusta, Ga., yesterday. Woods won his fourth green jacket on the first hole of a sudden death playoff against Chris DiMarco.
But this didn't look like the same guy who won his first eight majors.
At times Woods was simply brilliant, especially when he made up a four-shot deficit in just two holes when the third round resumed yesterday morning. He tied a Masters record with seven straight birdies on his way to a 65, giving him a three-shot lead going into the final round.
For DiMarco, it was the second straight year he saw the winning putt on the 18th hole at Augusta National. He played with Mickelson in the final
Ultimately, all that mattered was having defending champion Phil Mickelson slip the green jacket over his shoulders in the Butler Cabin, and being a major champion again for the first time in nearly three years.
But he made the kind of mistakes rarely seen from Woods in the final round of a major.

"I was ready to win." DiMarco said. "I will be ready to win next year. I certainly feel like I can."
He also was up against some magic right out of Woods' glorious past.
group when Lefty rolled in an 18-footer from about the same spot as Woods.
Woods was clinging to a one-shot lead and on the ropes, sailing his tee shot long over the par-3 16th green with DiMarco facing a 15-footer for birdie. Woods played his chip up the slope and watched it trickle down, begging from his knees for it to keep going. When it stopped, then dropped, it looked as though Woods had the Masters won.
But even a two-shot lead with two holes to play wasn't enough.
He sliced his tee shot into the pines, couldn't reach the green and escaped with bogey when his pitch rolled off the green. He sailed his approach on the 18th into the bunker on the right and made another bogey.

Last round washed out
Rainy weather cuts tournament short, disappoints coach
Rainy weather took the Kansas mens golf team out of the running for a top finish at Saturday's Courtyard by Marriot Intercollegiate. Kansas had its final round of play canceled and finished in a tie for ninth place at Devils Ridge Golf Club in Holly Springs, N.C.
BY TIM HALL
hall@kansan.com
KANSAN SPORTWRITER
"Obviously we're a little disappointed that we didn't get to finish the golf tournament," coach Ross Randall said. "We felt that the cool and windy weather would have been good for us, and we would have been able to move up the leaderboard."
It was the Jayhawks worst finish since Feb. 11, when Kansas finished in 11th place at the Taylor Made/Big Island Intercollegiate.
The Duke Blue Devils won the tournament after the final round of play was canceled.
PETER SMITH
The Blue Devils shot 16-under-par as a team to win the tournament for the second straight year, defeating ACC Conference rival Wake Forest by one shot.
Ward
The Devils were led by freshman Michael Schachner and junior Ryan Blaum in the second round, as both players fired rounds of 68.
Georgia Southern senior Aron Price won the tournament as an individual by six strokes. He shot a 64 in the first round, followed by a 66 in the second round for a total score of 130, 14-under-par.
For the second straight tournament and for the third time this spring rain has cut tournaments short. Two weeks ago,
Kansas was unable to build on its second place standing after two rounds in the 59th Western Intercollegiate. Saturday, the Jayhawks were once again unable to make a late move up the leaderboard.
All three players tied for 27th.
The Jayhawks finished the tournament with a two-round total of 580, four-over-par. Junior Luke Trammell, junior Pete Krsnich, and senior Kevin Ward led the way for the team with identical two-round totals of 145, one-over-par for the tournament.
Sophomore Tyler Docking shot two rounds of 73 for a two-round score of 146 to tie for 33rd. Sophomore Gary Woodland shot a total score of 150 for the Jayhawks. The men will have a few weeks to regroup before the Big 12 Championships. The team will begin play April 29 at Whispering Pines Golf Club in Trinity, Texas.

Cardinals get rings, lose series
ST. LOUIS — Pat Burrell hit a three-run homer to increase his major league-leading RBI total to 15 and Bobby Abreu had three hits and four RBIs, helping Jon Lieber and the Philadelphia Phillies beat the St. Louis Cardinals 13-4 yesterday.
BY R.B. FALLSTROM THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
The Phillies manhandled the Cardinals in their final game at 40-year-old Busch Stadium, which is being demolished to make room for a new stadium after the season. They took two of three in the Cardinals' first home series after dropping two of three at home against the Nationals to start the year.
The Cardinals, who received
NL championship rings for their 16th pennant in a pregame ceremony, led for only one-half of an inning in the series and lost the last two games 23-8. St. Louis got homers from Albert Pujols, Abraham Nunez and So Taguchi, all coming with the game out of hand.
In a matchup of opening day pitchers, Lieber retired the first 12 batters while the Cardinals' Chris Carpenter (1-1) was pummeled and failed to make it out of the fourth.
Lieber (2-0), who beat the Nationals in his first start, didn't allow a hit until Scott Rolen singled to start the fifth. He gave up four runs — two earned — and four hits. Lieber struck out three
and walked none and is 9-1 in his last 12 starts dating to last season.
Burrell's third homer put the Phillies ahead 6-0 in the third. He was 6-for-14 with two homers and nine RBIs in the series and leads the NL in hits (12). RBIs and total bases (24).
Burrell has driven in a run in all six games, a career best.
Abreu had an RBI double in the first, an RBI single third and a two-run double in the fourth off Carpenter, who allowed only one run on four hits in seven innings in his season debut at Houston while retiring his last 13 batters. This time Carpenter lasted only 3 1/3 innings, giving up eight runs and 10 hits.

Bourdais wins in Long Beach
Tracy, who won the last two Long Beach races and four overall, started from the pole and tried hard to make a race of it. But this one belonged to Bourdais, the reigning Champ Car World Series champion, after he passed Tracy for the lead on the 38th of 81 laps.
BY MIKE HARRIS THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
The last time the team co-owned by Chicago business Carl Haas and actor Paul Newman won America's longest running downtown street race was in 1987, when now-retired Mario Andretti finished first and Bourdais was 8 years old.
LONG BEACH, Calif. — Sebastian Bourdais outdued Paul Tracy yesterday, giving Newman/Haas Racing its first victory in the Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach in 19 years.
And it could be the last time the Champ Cars, which replaced Formula One here in 1984, race at Long Beach. This is the final year of the contract and Long Beach officials are considering replacing the Champ Cars with the rival Indy Racing League in 2006.
"We want to be back here next year." Bourdais said as he celebrated the 11th victory of his career. "The fans here saw great racing today and we want to come back and do that for them again."
Bourdais started fourth, but came out of the first series of pit stops second to Tracy. Once he got past the Canadian driver, Bourdais built a pair of leads of more than 5.5 seconds, both erased by full-course caution flags. Tracy was unable to take advantage of those opportunities.
The two leaders made their final stops on lap 61 and Bourdais easily beat Tracy's Forsyte Racing entry back onto the track. After Jimmy
Vasser and rookie Andrew Ranger, both driving a different pit strategy, made their final stops on lap 70, that put Bourdais and Tracy back on top, with the Frenchman leading by 7.6 seconds.
When rookie Bjorn Wirdheim bumped Ranger into a tire wall on lap 72, bringing out the fourth and final caution of the day, Tracy had one more shot at the leader. But it was no contest.
He finished 4.138 seconds ahead of Tracy, nearly the length of the entire main straightaway on the 1.968-mile street circuit.
"I did everything I could," Tracy said. "I've done a lot of races here at Long Beach and had a lot of success, but this is one of the hardest races I've ever had."
Bourdais, who won seven of 14 races last year, took the green flag on lap 76 and, while Tracy was fighting off a challenge for second by Bruno Junqueira, the other Newman/Haas driver, Bourdais easily nulled away.
Echoing Bourdais, Tracy said,
"It would be a real shame if we're not back next year."
Junqueira finished third, followed by Justin Wilson, Tracy's new teammate Mario Dominguez, and a pair of rookies, Timo Glock and Ronnie Bremer.
Junqueira, who has now finished third, second and third in his last three starts at Long Beach, started from the outside of the front row and took advantage of an early mistake by Tracy to briefly take the lead on the third lap. But Tracy got it back on a restart eight laps later.
"We just couldn't get back up there to the leaders because of some yellow flags and traffic." Junqueira said. "But Sebastien getting a win for Newman/Haas is a good way to start the season."

Giants win without slugger in lineup
BY JANIE McCAULEY
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO — The San Francisco Giants are winning with small ball, a new approach for the team with the game's most feared slugger.
Jason Schmidt singled twice in San Francisco's seven-run fifth and gave up only two hits in six sharp innings, and the Giants completed a three-game sweep of the Colorado Rockies
with an 11-4 victory yesterday.
with an 11-4 victory yesterday. San Francisco is 4-2 without injured barry Bonds.
Mike Matheny hit a two-run double, Marquis Grissom had a two-run single and Lance Niekro drove in a run two days after being called up for San Francisco, which scored 25 runs in the series after losing two of three to rival Los Angeles to start the season.
Grissom and Pedro Feliz have hit safely in every game.

Colorado lost its fourth straight after beating San Diego 12-10 in its opener — two on late rallies by the Giants in the first two games at SBC Park. The Rockies were swept for the seventh time in San Francisco, their most in any city.
Schmidt (2-0), out with a nasty
case of the flu Thursday, retired his first seven batters and didn't allow a hit until J.D. Closser's broken-bat liner clipped off Devi Cruz's glove at second and just escaped the infield in the fifth.
The pitcher got a bloop single of his own leading off the bottom half and scored on Omar Vizquel's double. His second single of the inning scored Matheny, marking the first time a pitcher had two hits in an inning since San Diego's Brian
Lawrence on Sept. 20, 2003, in the seventh inning at Colorado.
"He's a pretty good hitter," Grissom said. "We tease him that he swings at the junk. But we all do."
Schmidt took an IV on Friday to replenish the fluids he lost while ill, then declared "I'm going to pitch no matter what."
His legs tired after spending so much time on the basepaths in the fifth, so he came out of the game.

the season and the first inside-the-park home run since Ryan Baty recorded one April 13, 2003, at Texas Tech.
Despite the rally, Kansas fell short. Oklahoma added a run in the eighth to win 11-9.
"It's disappointing we let that one inning get away from us," Ritch Price said. "We came back well."
The Sooners wasted no time in jumping on top of the
Jayhawks to a 7-5 victory Friday night. Oklahoma junior second baseman Russell Raley hit a solo home run in the bottom of the first inning off Kansas senior starting pitcher Mike Zagurski (4-3). It was Raley's first homer of the season.
Oklahoma extended its lead to 5-0 in the fourth inning by taking advantage of three Kansas errors. Each of the team's three runs in the inning were unearned.
The Jayhawks cut the lead to two runs twice in the ballgame. Junior outfielder A.J. Van Slyke and Richardson each had RBI
singles in the sixth inning to make it a 5-3 game.
Oklahoma pushed the score to 7-3 in the seventh inning before Kansas scored single runs in the eighth and ninth innings.
"I thought Zagurski was good," Ritch Price said. "We just didn't get the job done."
Kansas' record fell to 24-14 overall and 3-6 in the Big 12. Oklahoma improved to 19-12, 5-4 in conference. The Jayhawks will travel to Wichita State Wednesday night.

But on the 16th hole, Costner said her nerves got to her. She said she felt sick to her stomach, but O'Neill calmed her down. Costner proceeded to make a birdie on the 17th, helping to secure the victory.
Even though the Jayhawks played well enough to improve their opportunities for an NCAA regional bid, their fate hangs on their play at the Big 12 Conference Championship in Austin, Texas, April 22-24. For now, O'Neill said she had no idea which five golfers would play in the event, or how she would decide.
In the practices before the Big 12 Conference Championship, O'Neill said the Jayhawks would continue work on their short game and replicate shots they expected to see at the University of Texas Golf Club, a course they have already played a tournament on this year.

Royals rebound to beat Angels
MLB
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ANAHEIM, Calif. — Ruben Gotay wanted to come back strong after an embarrassing error the night before. Brian Anderson was determined to get off to a good start after the worst season of his career.
Both got what they were looking for.
Gotay went 4-for-5 with a homer and three RBI while Anderson won his season debut, leading the Kansas City Royals to an 8-3 victory over Bartolo Colon and the Los Angeles Angels yesterday.
“Having a game like this after what happened last night, it gets your confidence back,” Gotay said.
Staked to a 6-0 lead, Anderson (1-0) allowed three runs and five hits in six-plus innings. He gave up a homer to AL MVP Vladimir Guerrero, struck out five and walked none.
Mike Sweeney was 5-for-4 with a pair of RBI singles and Emil Brown also homered for Kansas City, which finished with 17 hits. The Royals, swept 7-0 by the Angels last season while losing a franchise-record 104 games, took two of three from the defending AL West champions.
Brown homered in the eighth against rookie reliever Jake Woods, and Gotay singled home another run two outs later against Bret Prinz for his career-best fourth hit.
Terrence Long started the Royals' second inning with a double and just beat the throw home from Steve Finley on a single to center by Angel Berroa.
Anderson struck out his first three batters on 16 pitches and retired 10 straight before Chone Figgins tripled to left-center with one out in the fourth and Guerrero homered on the next pitch.
Prinz faced three more batters before coming out with a strain in the back of his right shoulder. He was placed on the 15-day disabled list after the game and replaced by Triple-A right-hander Chris Bootcheck.
Colon (1-1) allowed six runs and 11 hits in six innings, after holding Texas to one run over six innings on opening day. The beefy right-hander threw 34 pitches during Kansas City's four-run second.
Alberto Castillo doubled home Berroa, and Gotay capped the rally with a two-run homer, his second in 164 big league at-bats.

CONSTRUCTION
Construction continues on 14th Street
BY NATE KARLIN
nkharlin@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Construction workers began work yesterday at the intersection of 14th Street and Jayhawk Boulevard, a project that was supposed to completed in March. The intersection has been closed for nearly a year.
Fourteenth street is not expected to be open before the end of the semester, Jim Modig, director of Design and Construction Management, said.
Ken Stoner, director of student housing, said his staff communicated the delay with scholarship hall residents who live in the area last week.
"It's just a mess," he said.
Nolan T. Jones, Pittsburg sophomore, and Grace Pearson Scholarship Hall resident said the construction created more problems for parking.
With the street closed, scholarship hall residents have had trouble finding spots, especially on weekend nights when the streets become cluttered with patrons from local bars, he said.
Aubree Bowen, Augusta sophomore, said the 14th Street closing didn't bother her because she just walked to campus. She also said that most of
the girls in her Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority house weren't upset about the closing.
Contracting and a funding approval caused the delay, Design and Construction Management officials said.
In a previous article, Gary Lawson project manager, said construction along 14th Street was supposed to begin around Feb. 7 in order to meet its scheduled completed date, which was now unknown.
Stoner sent an e-mail last week to all scholarship hall students about the construction that began yesterday.
"Weather permitting, this project should move forward very quickly." Stoner wrote in his e-mail. The e-mail did not
mention a completion date.
The extended deadline has not set well with some scholarship hall students who used the 14th Street entrance often after 5 p.m., when it opened to traffic.
Mike Bretches, Battenfeld Scholarship Hall resident, said the closed entrance made driving to his hall difficult.
"It's a big hassle to get around, especially since Louisiana is a one-way street," the Hutchinson sophomore said.
Friends who visit him have trouble navigating their way around the construction and through the unofficial detour streets, he said.

There's no street sign marking 14th Street at its intersection with Jayhawk Boulevard at the top of the hill on campus. But that doesn't really matter because after about a year the 14th Street intersection is still closed to traffic. The construction project was supposed to be completed at the end of March.

City gains cutting edge
BY JASON SHAAD

KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Through his little window of the world, Mike Amyx sees a lot of changes. From hairstyles, cars and fashion trends to city development, he catches all of it. And throughout each day he watches and listens, he chats and cuts hair. It's the same thing he's been doing for the last 30 years.
On any given day, he can get a variety of feedback on any issue in town. Amyx knows just about every issue people in Lawrence care about.
"I can gather all kinds of information here because, in my business, I have people from all walks of life come in," Amyx said.
And now he will take that knowledge to the city commission.
Last Tuesday, voters picked him to become the newest member of the city commission. Incumbent commissioners Sue
Hack and David Schauner also won seats.
Amyx, owner and barber of Amyx Barbershop at 842 1/2 Massachusetts St., will be sworn in to the commission tonight. Although he was the only non-incumbent candidate elected, Amyx has plenty of experience in local politics.
He has been mayor of the city commission twice, from 1985 to 1986 and from 1987 to 1988. He was a member of the Douglas County Commission from 1988 to 1993 and served as the chairman of the Kansas Board of Barbering from 1993 to 1996.
"I have always looked at my business as a natural progression to getting into politics," he said. "I'm in the service business. Being a city commissioner is a carryover. The city commission provides service to the entire community."
Amyx said his hair cutting and political careers were parallel.

Williams. Chancellor Robert Hemenway still comes in, Amxv said.
Amyx could also become the vice-mayor tonight. Each year the commission selects a new mayor and vice-mayor.
That means that Amyx, who received 10.635 votes, should become vice-mayor while Dennis "Boog" Highberger should become mayor.
Traditionally, the vice mayor becomes mayor and the candidate with the highest number of votes in the general election becomes vice mayor, city manager Mike Wilden said.
As much as he will enjoy the position, it was not a gauge of his success, Amyx said.
"I'm just one of those local guys who gets up and goes to work every day," he said. "The biggest thing for me is being able to live up to people's expectations of me."
STUDENT SENATE ELECTIONS
Candidates debate issues
— Edited by Ross Fitch

STAFF WRITER
Elaine Jardon, presidential candidate for Delta Force, said that Senate had become stagnate during the past three years that KUUnited has been in office.
It wasn't the shouting match that some of the candidates expected, but yesterday's formal Student Senate debate did contain a discussion about the culture of Senate.
Jardon said Senate needed to be more progressive and improve outreach to students.
Marynell Jones, vice presidential candidate for KUUnited, responded to Jardon's claim
Dennis Chanay, presidential candidate for Student Voice, agreed with Jardon that it was time for a change and also focused on last year's 14 percent election turnout. Chanay said that Senate needed to find a way to increase voter turnout as well as have an open bill submission through which any student, not just student senators, could present a bill at a Senate meeting.
that Senate has become stagnate by saying that Senate wrote 30 more bills this year than it did last year. Jones also disagreed with Chanay's idea that any student should be able to present a bill. Senate can be confusing for some students, and all 81 senators are willing to write bills for various campus organizations, she said.
Jones said she was not surprised that the other coalitions focused on bill legislation.
Jardon said this year's debate was a lot cleaner than last year's. Delta Force has made it a priority to be classy and not attack other coalitions she said.
"Incumbents normally receive comments like that." Jones said. "It is the nature of the election. Some groups are going to think Senate is stagnate because the same people keep being elected into office."
Most of the crowd was composed of people who were involved with coalitions or who were involved with Senate in some form.

Disability issues deserve awareness

Rachel Magario has been blind since she was a little girl. Hamlet, her jet-black guide dog and a walking stick help her get around campus.
She also uses LiftVan, a service to transport students with disabilities to academic-related activities.
But getting around campus hasn't always been easy for the for the graduate student from Sao Paulo, Brazil.

Magario
She made her case to KU on Wheels a couple years ago to allow her to use the LiftVan services, which were only available to students with mobility disabilities.
She said KU on Wheels originally justified its rule because blind people could get in and out of the regular buses but later made an exception for her. She said
the organization never took into account the difficulty of having her guide dog on the bus or waiting for the bus.
Now Magario's goal is to have a seat on Student Senate that would represent students on campus with disabilities, so the University of Kansas can avoid rules like the one that

Taking inventions to market
By TY BEAVER
tbeaver@hansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
With research expenditures increasing every year at the University of Kansas, the need to protect the discoveries of researchers becomes important, especially when those discoveries can bring the University money.
The University uses a program called technology transfer to help researchers receive licenses, copyrights and patents and to safeguard their inventions and discoveries and guide them to the marketplace.
He said the patenting process was long and hard.
KU PATENTS
Propine: glaucoma drug
Cerebyx: anti-seizure drug
Geodon: anti-schizophrenic drug
Vfend: anti-fungal drug
Implantable Glutamate Biosensor: enzyme-based sensor for glutamate
Profusion: first Internet meta-search engine
Quistar: teaching tool
VidWatch: broadcast monitoring software
Patenting and licensing were part of the process to get those discoveries into the marketplace. Baxendale said

K
Last year, the University was granted 49 patents and 30 licenses, and earned $800,000 from previous patents, Jim Baxendale, director of technology transfer and intellectual property said.
Two drug companies, CyDex and ProQuest Pharmaceuticals, Inc., were startup companies created by the University to market drugs developed by KU researchers.
Patents last for approximately 20 years after being issued, Baxendale said, but it often takes years for some of those products to reach the market, cutting down on the time the University can make money.

be marketed. To receive a U.S. patent, an application must be filed within a year of publication. International patents require patent applications before publishing.
The biological sciences researchers earn the most patents, but their discoveries take the longest to reach the market, 10 to 12 years for some drugs and compounds.
"It's a double-edged sword," Baxendale said.
Other areas of research, such as engineering, have earned their fair share of patents and licenses too.
For example, computer engineering received a patent for ProFusion, the

Court to rule on Legislature's education funding proposal
STATE LEGISLATURE
That plan would increase annual spending on public schools by $127 million, which would include additional dollars for special education, bilingual education and programs that help students at risk of failing. Republican leaders drafted the plan and pushed it through the Legislature to satisfy the court's deadline for responding.
BY JOHN MILBURN THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
The state Supreme Court ruled in January on a lawsuit filed in 1999 by a coalition of school districts led by Dodge City and Salina. Last week, Alan Rupe, their lead attorney, asked the court to reject the Legislature's plan, force lawmakers to increase annual spending by up to $852 million and appoint a special master to oversee drafting of the new proposal.
TOPEKA — On the eve of its deadline, an attorney for the state told the Kansas Supreme Court it shouldn't reject the Legislature's education funding plan because of critics" "political disappointment," yesterday.
Yesterday Kenneth Weltz, an attorney for the state, filed its response, calling Rupe's statements "negative spin."
hat plan would increase annual spending on public schools by $127 million, which would include additional dollars for special education, bilingual education and programs that help students at risk of failing.
Weltz said legislators responded to
Rupe said legislators based decisions on politics, although the court told them to avoid politics and focus on the true costs of educating children. But Weltz said the Legislature is political by design, requiring compromise to pass a plan.
"This bill, which reflects the will of the Kansas electorate as expressed through their duly elected representa-
the court order in good faith, noting that the increase in spending they approved was the largest since 1992 when the current school finance law was written.
In its January ruling, the court said legislators needed to spend more money and distribute its dollars more fairly.
tives, therefore, cannot be merely tossed aside because of the political disappointment of some," Weltz wrote.
Though she and fellow Democrats view the school finance plan as inadequate, Gov. Kathleen Sebelius is letting it become law Saturday without her signature.
Supreme Court spokesman Ron Keefover said the justices have not indicated how they respond. The justices could either set a timeline for further legal filings by attorneys or rule on the Legislature's effort.
Legislators' plan is financed from existing state revenues. It rewrites the formula for distributing aid to 301 districts, raising the base state aid per pupil to $4,222 from the present $3,863. Future increases would be tied to increases in inflation, as measured by the Consumer Price Index.
Supporters of increased school funding planned to mark today's deadline with a Statehouse rally, urging the court to reject the plan. Sebelius is expected to address the rally, organized by Kansas Families United for Public Education.

Students have their hobbies. Not many students, however, are on the cutting edge of their pastimes.
Last weekend members of the Rocket Systems Development Organization attended an amateur rocket launch in Argonia. The highlight of the trip was the launch of the organization's experimental lightweight rocket made from a material similar to plastic.
Unfortunately, the rocket didn't make the return to Lawrence in one piece. The launch went smoothly, but the secondary detonation to release the rocket's parachute broke the rocket in half.
Despite the rocket's parachute malfunction the weekend was a success, Lacey Hull, Wamego junior, said.
"We had fun," she said. "This was a test run, and we know what went wrong."
The rocket reached 1,198 feet before problems occurred.
Materials from the rocket could still be used for future projects. Hull said.
Rick Hale, associate professor of aerospace engineering, gave the organization composite material for the rocket. Hale received the material from private companies so he could research its use in space-based
The organization has planned for two more composite rockets to launch in the fall, Jessie Brown, Leavenworth junior, said. One of those rockets is being developed to reach 15,000 feet in altitude at one-and-a-half times the speed of sound, she said.
cast instead of a rocket body. Members eventually learned that rolling the composite on a form was the best method. Schroeder said.
Constant development of new rockets will help the organization in its long-term goals. Schroeder said The organization would like to have private sponsorship from equipment testing to reduce funding from the department of aerospace engineering. This will become more likely as the organization improves its rockets.
"It may take us fifty years to get to that point, but that's what we want," he said.

A lightweight rocket allows for more fuel and payload. Past rockets usually have up to 300 pounds of thrust when launched, he said.
It also wants to have a rocket reach and remain in sub-orbital flight for 15 minutes, a similar goal as NASA's Mercury missions in the 1960s. Schroeder said.

telescopes. He gave the excess material to the organization.

The organization constructed the rocket with a method of trial and error, Chris Schroeder, Hutchinson junior and organization president, said.
The material came in sheets, and the first attempt to roll the material resembled a badly constructed arm
In the future, Schroeder hopes to have their rockets reach 1,000

Week events praise diversity awareness
International Awareness week is ISA's biggest event. Juan Araoz, president of ISA and La Paz, Bolivia, junior, wants this year's World Expo to represent about 100 countries.
Students from 110 countries attend the University of Kansas. This year the International Student Association will try to expose students to most of these countries.
"Our goal is to have more people involved," he said. "We try to have more every year."
ISA contacted every international
student on campus by e-mail or by phone to participate in the week.
They want to get the students signed up before tomorrow's deadline.
Increasing international student attendance isn't the only goal.
"It's important that international and domestic students take advantage of the diversity on campus," Araoz said.
Students will be able to utilize programs like the Language Fair, which offers students different language booths where they can learn to say different phrases.
The other events for the week are an eight-on-eight soccer tournament, an international symposium

Stolen sign elicits KUnited complaint
A KUnited banner was removed from the front of Wescoe Hall during the weekend.
An e-mail was sent to the Hotmail accounts of some candidates running for Student Senate. The sender claimed to have stolen the banner, it included a picture of a man holding a KUitedon banner with a caption, "We have your flag, (expletive)."
The coalition filed a complaint with the elections commission yesterday morning. The violation did not specify a person, but the coalition asked for an investigation. The commission will investigate the situation.
We have your high text contained the lyrics to a Queen and David Bowie song "Under Pressure," and said that the song was a favorite of Nick Sterner's, presidential candidate for KUUnited.
Serner said the coalition was shocked and saddened by the whole situation.

Kansas Public Radio raised more than $207,000 for its programs at the spring membership drive.
KPR has about 5,000 members. Individuals become members when they donate to KPR, regardless of the amount they donate, Wilke said.
Listeners support KPR programming
The spring drive raised about $200,000 last year, said Phillip Wilke, KPR media manager.
Money, which came from membership donations from April 1-8, accounts for one-third of KPR's budget. The drive attracted 2,001 donors, Wilke said.
"These drives are essential to keeping high quality public radio on the air," Wilke said. "We have a very loyal and dedicated audience and we appreciate each and every one of them."
"We're assuring listeners that they can literally hear their money at work on the air," Wilke said.

Disputed cardinal leads Mass at Vatican
BY RACHEL ZOLL THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
VATICAN CITY — Cardinal Bernard Law, whose failures to stop sexually abusive priests sparked the worst crisis in American church history, led a Mass for thousands mourning Pope John Paul II at St. Peter's Basilica yesterday after police whisked away a victim protesting outside.
Law celebrated the Mass without disruption, saying in his homily that Italian, Polish and other pilgrims were inspiring in their huge tribute to John Paul. Nearly 3 million mourners
"In these incredible days, the pope continues to teach us what it means ... to be a follower of Christ," Law said, reading slowly in Italian. "Our faith has been reinforced."
After the service, several worshippers from Europe said they had never heard of Law. American parishioners said they recognized him, but questioned whether the protest was appropriate right after the pope died.

another sign that the Vatican did not understand the betrayal parishioners felt that he protected guilty priests.
But some Catholics said seeing the cardinal presiding over Mass at one of the most significant sites for their faith was
culgainly law resigned as archbishop of Boston in December 2002 after unsealed court records revealed he had moved predatory clergy among parishes for years without telling parents their children were at risk. He has apologized for his wrongdoing.
More than 550 people have filed abuse claims in Boston in recent years, and the archdiocese has paid more than $85 million in settlements. The scandal erupted in Boston in January 2002 and spread
nationwide, causing what American Catholic bishops have called the worst crisis in the U.S. church.
Some church leaders have said the Vatican chose Law to celebrate the Mass because he leads an important church, not as a personal honor.
After Law's resignation, the pope appointed him archpriest of St. Mary Major Basilica in Rome, one of four basilicas under direct Vatican jurisdiction.
Still, the assignment gave Law a position of influence ahead of the papal election, which is set to begin Monday.

Prairie burns to start
Control burns in Flint Hills needed for plant renewal THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Di
But this year, rain and wind have limited the number of days suitable for burning.
prev Lift
STRONG CITY — To everything there is a season, and in the Flint Hills of Kansas, now is the time for grassland to be burned, an annual ritual essential to renewal of the prairie.
Smoke from the annual fires can cause visibility problems for motorists. There also are concerns about unexpected winds causing uncontrolled burning that threatens homes and barns in the countryside.
Some have suggested that the burning take place over a longer period, from as early as mid-February to as late as early June. But grassland managers say the timing of the burning is important.
Chase County, one of 14 Kansas counties in which the Flint Hills are located, is home to the Tallgrass Prairie Preserve. The prairie grass, touted as the richest pasture in the world that can add 2 to 2.5 pounds a day to the weight of grazing cattle, needs regular spring burn-off to flourish.
"We've got a lot of burning and not much time to do it," said Mike Holder, Kansas State University extension agent in Chase County. "We're going to see a lot of fire over the next couple of weeks."
have of s
"It's hard to believe for people unfamiliar with burning, but it really does have to be done at just the right time," Holder said.

prevented her from using LiftVan.
Senate currently does not have a seat to speak on behalf of students with disabilities.
Magario said she could fill the role as the representative.
"Right now what I want is just for disabled people to be a part of the decision making," she said. "If you do it right the first time, you don't need to fix it."
If Magario wanted to bring anything to Senate's attention, she would have to ask the international student senator. She said a lack of interest in the part of the student body government was not the problem, but a lack of awareness.
Jeff Dunlap, student body vice president, said he supported the idea of a senator representing students with disabilities.
"It's a population that gets overlooked a lot," the Leawood senior said. Dunlap said KU on Wheels was only designed to take students around campus and back home, but students with disabilities argued that students used the buses to go to downtown Massachusetts Street or go shopping at Target, and they were not given the same privilege.
Petitions like Magario's influenced Senate to expand the LiftVan service this year.
Senate put forth $10,000 to expand the service, half from KU on Wheels and half from the Office of Student Success. The service now takes students with disabilities to attend extracurricular activities on campus. The service will receive the same amount from Senate next year.
While Magario likes the expansion, she said the University could do better, and Senate needed to have a deeper interest in disability issues.
Zach Coble, Winfield sophomore and president of Able Hawks, would like to see disabled student representation in student government.
"Students with disabilities come to about 10 percent of the population here at KU. That's a fairly large percentage to not have any representation.
Zach Coble president of Able Hawks
"Many minority groups on campus have representatives on Student Senate. Students with disabilities come to about 10 percent of students here at KU. That's a fairly large percentage to not have any representation." he said.
To get a seat in Senate, Able Hawks, which is a campus organization that promotes awareness of disabilities, needs to create a bill and then Senate will need to pass it.
Able Hawks is taking an early initiative for a Senate seat. It will meet tomorrow to discuss potential candidates for the possible seat.
Melissa Manning, associate director of Disability Resources, said 651 students at the University had registered disabilities, which includes physical and learning disabilities. But she said the office only kept track of students who asked for help. She said about 2,000 students at the University had some form of disability.
The image shows a group of people seated in front of a large table, likely in a conference room or meeting hall. The participants appear to be engaged in a formal discussion or hearing, with some facing the camera and others looking towards the group. The setting is likely related to a legal or governmental context, given the formal attire of the individuals. The image does not contain any text that can be read clearly.

Chanay said Student Voice would begin working immediately on next year's election and begin recruiting members, if the coalition lost. This is Student Voice's first campaign, and Chanay said the coalition would be a year-round organization that would help to influence Senate differently.

Arms control chief U.N. gone off track
Democrats at Bolton's Senate Foreign Relations Committee confirmation hearing recited his past undiplomatic remarks about the United Nations and wondered aloud why he would even want the job. They also challenged him over alleged bullying of government intelligence officials who disagreed with him on issues including Cuba's weapons capabilities.
WASHINGTON — His Senate approval to be U.N. ambassador still in question, John R. Bolton told skeptical Democrats yesterday that the world body had "gone off track" at times but that he was committed to its mission.
Implant restriction debated yesterday
The committee is expected to vote Thursday on whether to promote Bolton from his current job as the State Department's arms control chief to become the U.S. ambassador at the United Nations.
WASHINGTON — Thirteen years after most use of silicone-gel breast implants was banned, the government reopened emotional debate yesterday on whether to lift the restrictions — despite lingering questions about how often the devices can break inside women's bodies and how bad those breaks really are.
— Anne Gearan/The Associated Press
In a daylong hearing, dozens of women, many in tears, told federal health advisers of pain and crippling health problems when silicone leaked from broken implants into their breasts and beyond.
About 264,000 breast enlargements and 63,000 breast reconstructions were performed last year, according to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons.

Learn what others found out hard way: Don't pose nude
BEEF
Of course, that romantic
BETSY MCLEOD
bmcleod@kansan.com
There's nothing more romantic than posing nude in front of a camera for your loved one. It signifies an intimate level of trust, and establishes a sexy, scandalous feeling, knowing how daring and carefree you are.
Of course, that romantic rush of audacious giddiness is somewhat short-lived when you discover that those sexy, scandalous pictures have been posted on the Internet or mailed to every male in the KU listserv.
With the digital camera's recent coming-of-age, the long time trend of amateur pornography has hit an all time high, with exploited nude videotapes or pictures being e-mailed, printed, and posted on the internet or the dormitory bathroom stalls. With the semi-recent Paris Hilton sex-tape scandals and the Girls Gone Wild lawsuits, you'd think that girls these days would be smart enough to keep their top on in front of a lens, no matter how many times they hear the empty promise of "i swear, no one else will see it."
But sure enough, every day as I walk on campus I see at least one girl whose naked picture has been posted all around a frat house or a web site, and is completely oblivious to the fact that anyone but her sweetheart has seen it at all.
Unfortunately, I, as well as everyone else that has seen her in compromising positions on the Internet, can't help but have a chuckle at her expense.
It all makes me wonder what on earth these girls were thinking when the flash went off, pun intended. Some girls allow themselves to be photographed because they think the guy will like them more. Others do it because they're drunk and aren't really thinking straight. Still more run off to Mardi Gras and come home with their hard-earned beads, not realizing that their little peep
show is playing over and over on various Web sites. Some just don't think about the possible consequences.
Once these types of pictures have been viewed by the public, its hard to reestablish respect from strangers that have just spent
fifteen minutes either beating off to or laughing at your naked body. There are, however, cases where girls don't realize they're being filmed. I can't count how many parties I've been to where there's been someone with a video camera taped to his or her hand, eagerly awaiting the chance that some girl will get so sloshed she won't realize she's taken her top off. And of course there's the chance that your hot and sweaty hook-up is being broadcast live all over the Internet "American Pie"-style.
And what about the legal liabilities? Technically, according to the Kansas Legislature, nude photos cannot be copied or printed without written consent of the person being photographed, but in this day and age, there are plenty of loopholes people can jump through.
Sure, there's nothing wrong with shooting a few kinky sex tapes with your spouse, but when the person behind the camera isn't legally bound to you, chances are that there's nothing stopping those compromising photos from being e-mailed to your parents. So, college co-eds, the smartest advice for you is to leave the porno to Jenna Jameson; she looks better doing it than you do anyway. Tune in for next week's scandal: Boys Who Will Say Anything to See You Naked.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Economic nightmare in east Canada demonstrate need for harp seal hunt
On April 6, Adonia David wrote a letter titled "Condemn Canadian government's slaughter of harp seals." Within, she cited accounts of cruelty from "independent" observers, which essentially amounted to propaganda. These observers are not independent, but are hired by organizations with an interest in ending the harp seal hunt.
As a Canadian, I very much understand the desire to end the harp seal hunt, because I once felt very much the same way. That is, until I had the opportunity to live in Newfoundland and to see the economic depression of that area first hand.
Coming to see Newfoundlanders as real people forced me to place their welfare before that
of harp seals, however adorable pups are. The harp seal hunt is an off-season industry through which fishermen supplement their incredibly low incomes. By encouraging a boycott on Canadian seafood, you are irresponsibly encouraging students to blindly contribute to the human suffering and economic decline on Canada's east coast.
If, having researched both sides of this issue students still feel inclined to join the boycott then that would be a respectable and informed decision. Please educate yourself before becoming involved in Canadian political and environmental issues.

Courses in art history inspire new career path for columnist
Of all the classes I have taken, none have made me think and wonder more than classes in the history of art.
Not being an artistic person by any means, I still found I can't get enough of art history classes. There's beautiful art, important art, funny art, obscene art, confusing art.
JOHN JORDAN
jjordan@kansan.com
P
stupid art, ugly art and sarcastic art. And behind all of it, there are geniuses, funny stories, drunks, history and fantastic ideas.
However, my experience to art has been almost totally in an academic sense. Nearly all the art I've seen has been projected on a wall in a classroom in the Spencer Museum.
I know there's more to art than slides, books, lectures and tests and instead of trying to learn more by leaving the classroom, I've decided to take the plunge.
I made the decision to become an artist. This decision stems from my studies in the art we call modern.
What's modern art? It's not the religious paintings or naked statues. It's the splattered paint, distorted faces and block sculptures and a lot more.
A short and dirty description, but it's essentially the truth. Art became modern when it started to do new, unusual things.
Examples include Marcel Duchamp, who a teacher of mine called the greatest artist of the 20th century along with Picasso, painted a mustache on the Mona Lisa. Another painter, Yves Klein, sold invisible paintings. Invisible paintings that people bought with gold. What does one do with an invisible painting, I don't know.
These are two extreme examples of modern art, examples that make my dad say, "What are they teaching you at KU?" Nonetheless, they lead
to the question modern art raises: what is art? One can easily define art and the dictionary definition leaves much to be desired. But they gave us a definition in modern art history class: Art is what the artist decides it is, and, to a lesser degree, what the art community accepts.
This definition can lead to art that only focuses on art itself — art for art's sake — and ignores the good things art can do: inspire, cause change, amaze, etc. Nevertheless, it does help define these peculiar pieces as art.
More importantly, this definition lets me, now as an artist, decide what art is. It's an empowering definition. The numerous classes I have taken, the art I have studied and seen, and the history that I know put me in a position to produce art. So, now I would like to introduce my first work as an artist.
1. John Jordan, am now presenting as art three pages of art history notes taken on white, lined notebook paper, 8-by-11 inches, with black ink, on March 28. 2005 and signed by the artist. The work has of yet not been exhibited but is for sale for three weeks on eBay starting at $25,000.
The work combines my 15 hours of art history study with an emphasis on academic study of art and a focus on an understanding of what art is.
The price comes from a comment by a teacher who is a curator at the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art and wanted to buy a conceptual painting she had always loved for 'only' $25,000 but couldn't secure the funds to do so.
My hope as an artist is this work confuses and enlightens the viewer/buyer on the question of art. Hopefully the same will happen to me as the artist.
- Jordan is a Salina junior in journalism.

To the beat of their own drum
Players select, enjoy intro songs
BY KELLI ROBINETT
krobinett@kansan.com
KANSAN SPORTWRITER
Matt Baty stepped up to the plate in the first inning of a home game against Wichita State. He had just been announced to the crowd, and the Georgia Satellite song, "Keep Your Hands to Yourself," blared on the loud speaker.
The lyrics, "I got a little change in my pocket," could be heard as the junior outfielder took his first practice swing, and the song continued until the first pitch was thrown.
"That's pretty cool," said one fan sitting in the right field bleachers of Hogglund Ballpark. "I wonder what my intro song would be? Maybe something by Bruce Springsteen."
This type of conversation is commonplace *at baseball games.
The man sitting next to him shook his head.
"No way," he said. "It's got to be something that pumps people up."
The introduction songs that go along with batters and pitchers have become so popular that music is now played before every at bat, pitching change and even between innings.
Most players above the high school level have likely chosen an introduction song at some point. And players on the Kansas baseball team will attest that selecting a good song isn't easy.
"I've heard of players that go home and spend over an hour on the computer trying to come up with a song they feel comfortable with," Kansas baseball coach Ritch Price said. "As an old school guy, it's pretty hilarious to me. But it's something that players today really look forward to."
Before the season began, a list was posted in the team's locker room, and the players got the chance to choose their songs. The Kansas athletics marketing department then put the selected songs together, and they are played at every home game.
No regulations exist on what songs can be played, and genres from country to punk rock are heard at games. Some players prefer to hear a Nelly song before they bat, while others favor Metallica.
WALK-OUT SONGS
ach player on the
Each player on the Kansas baseball team chooses his own introduction song, and the music is played as he approaches the plate before an at-bat.
The songs for the Jayhawks' starting lineup:
♦ Junior Outfielder Matt Baty
"Keep Your Hands to
Yourself" by The Georgia
Satellites
♦ Junior Infielder Ritchie Price
"City on Down" by O.A.R.
- Junior Outfielder A.J. Van Slyke
"What If" by Creed
Junior Outfielder Gus Milner
"Headstrong" by Trapt
"Bro Hymn" by Pennywise
- Junior Infelder Jared Schweitzer
* "Human" by Metallica
Freshman Infielder John Allman
"Na-Nana-Na" by Nelly
Freshman Infielder Ryne Price
"My Town" by Montgomery Gentry
♦ Freshman Infielder Erik Morrison
"We Didn't Start the Fire" by Billv Joel
Price said he could never predict the song selections.
"The one that cracks me up is Baty's," he said. "It has the 'jing a ling a lings.' I don't even think it relates to baseball, but heck, it obviously works for him because he's one of the best players in the country."

INTRAMURALS
JUW
Thomas Koep, Edina, Minn., senior races the ball toward first base as Joshua Stities, Shawnee junior, stretches out his arm for the ball Sunday during an intramural softball game at the Lawrence High School softball field, 19th and Mississippi streets. Stities' team, Title IX, defeated Koep's team, Kentucky Gentlemen, 5-0. Title IX has won two consecutive games this season.

Title IX offense too much for Kentucky Gentlemen
BY MICHAEL PHILIPS
mphillips@kansan.com
KANKSAN SWITCHER
The Kentucky Gentlemen brought peanuts, Title IX brought assorted candies and Josh Bender brought the offense.
Bender, St. Louis freshman, had a run and a RBI as Title IX stayed undefeated with a 5-0 shutout victory Sunday afternoon.
It was the second game of the CoRec intramural softball season for both teams.
It was a tough day for the Kentucky Gentlemen, who notched six hits but were unable to bring any of the runners home.
Title IX has players from the Stephenson and Watkins scholarship halls.
Its players wasted no time making a statement. David Shoemaker, Overland Park senior, took advantage of defensive confusion and scored an inside-the-park home run on the first pitch of the game.
Name
Jill Lock, Chanute freshman, singled on the next pitch; then Josh Bender hit a ball deep into the outfield. Bender ran past second base, not realizing that Lock had been held up at third.

Kelly Zapf, of Rochester, N.Y., is in a league of her own on the KU women's bowling team — she's the only senior. In her time at the University of Kansas, Zapf has received an honorable mention All-American in 2004. Zapf works at the Jaybowl in the Kansas Union.

KANSAN SPORTSWRIVER
The lone senior on the KU women's bowling team, Kelly Zapf, has been building her resume. She's received an All-American honorable mention in 2004, and she was a member of fourth and fifth finishing bowling teams at the past two Intercollegiate Bowling Championships. She'll soon add to that a trip to her third" championship this April.
Zapf, a Rochester, N.Y., native, has been a member of the women's varsity team four years. She chose to come to the University of Kansas because her best friend, Marc D'Errico, a former KU bowler who won nationals last year, recruited her to join the bowling team.
"He and coach Mike Fine gave me a call on the phone, and I came out to visit and fell in love with the place." Zapf said.
She said being the only bowler on the team who had not been to nationals every year had helped her with how she approached the come went from having the potential to make it to nationals to 'when is the season going to be over with?' type of mentality."

petition. In her freshman year, the team suffered from injuries and academic concerns that kept the team from going to the championship.
"We went from having the potential to make it to nationals to 'when is the season going to be over with?' type of mentality," Zapf said. Though a national championship has eluded Zapf, she said her favorite memory in the past four years was when the men's team won the title last year.
"It just proved that Wichita State is not the only team in Kansas that
has a great bowling program," Zapf said.
When Zapf leaves at the end of the year, the team will have a hole at the anchor position. She took on the role last year and has contributed to the team's success.
"The last two years, that's what has gotten us as far as we have gone," junior Sarah Roenfeldt said. "There is a lot of pressure on you when you are in that position."
Losing Zapf's knowledge of different tournaments and lane conditions will be difficult for the team, freshman Nikki Iohannes said.
Zapf will stay at the University for a fifth year to finish her social welfare degree, and will still be a presence on the bowling team. She plans to help the team with the transition to a new coach and also recruit for the women's team.
Aside from working with the team, she also looks forward to bowling in outside tournaments. She was not able to compete in many tournaments because of school, work and KU bowling.

CLARIFICATION
A column in Friday's University Daily Kansan needs clarification. The column "Points system bad for football" stated that Gordon Myers said in order to maintain his football seats, he would need to donate a couple thousand more dollars.
Associate athletics director Jim Marchiony said because Myers had held season tickets for a number of years he had accumulated some points and that if he donated $100 to the Williams Fund, he should be able to maintain seats similar to or the same as his current ones.

Freshman middle blocker Kristin Buehler, who took a redshirt last season, saw her first action with the team, and she impressed coaches.
"Kristin got in there and did some good work for us," Bechard said. "We were happy to see her get out there and perform."
The scrimmage proceeded smoothly with the exception of an ankle injury to a Rockhurst player
Each team played three matches consisting of two games. The Jayhawks prevailed over all three of their opponents, UMKC, Rockhurst and Nebraska-Omaha respectively.
"It looked serious and we treated it as such, and that put us a little behind." Bechard said. "but the good news is, it turned out to be less severe than we had thought."
The team will travel to Chapel Hill, N.C., this weekend to compete in a similar event against North Carolina and Alabama.

Gators get program facelift
BY RALPH D. RUSSO
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
GAINESVILLE, Fla. — Urban Meyer surveys his squad of Gators as they sprint past, snapping at those who lag behind.
Not this time.
It's the final practice of the spring for Florida and its new coach. Traditionally, the Gators have had a light workout the day before the Orange and Blue scrimmage in "The Swamp."
Nearly three hours later, the Gators are done.
"Another day of work, men." Meyer calls out.
"Another day. Another day. Another day."
Welcome to Urban Renewal at the University of Florida, where optimism abounds, the coach is adored and the buzz words are honesty and accountability.
Meyer has risen through the ranks of college coaching with head-spinning speed.
After two seasons at Bowling Green and two more at Utah, the 40-year-old with the innovative offense and contagious intensity is already being called the next great college coach.
"It's very humbling and, if you know me, it's extremely uncomfortable." he said.
Meyer has done small things such as bringing the bleachers back to the practice field, so fans could sit and watch the spring workouts.
Leading Utah to a 12-0 season and a berth in the Bowl Championship Series made Meyer the most wanted coach in the country last year.
"The key word in this whole thing is ownership," Meyer said. "If they think it's a dictatorship, there's much more resistance."
Rovals' home opener ends in lopsided loss

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
KANSAS CITY, Mo. - The Kansas City Royals disappointed a lot of people.
The crowd of 41,788 was the largest ever to see a Royals' home opener, and the third-biggest regular-season gathering in Kauffman Stadium history.
So what reward did fans reap for this rousing show of support on the heels of a 104-loss season?
Members of the ice, the 16-and-under competitive softball team in Lee's Summit, Mo., show their Royals pride yesterday during the Kansas City Royals' opening-day game against the Seattle Mariners. Sea win, 8-2.
Mike Ransdell/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Seattle Mariners emergency starter Ryan Franklin took a three-hit shutout into the ninth inning, then the Mariners finally settled for a dominating 8-2 victory yesterday.
The Royals' most lopsided loss in any home opener.
The Royals have never been shut out in their home opener since 1971 and had never lost their first home game by more than five runs.
Thrust into the rotation by an injury that put Bobby Madritsch on the 15-day disabled list, Franklin (1-0) kept the Royals flailing for 8 2-3 innings. He retired 15 consecutive batters before Ruben Gotay walked with one out in the ninth.
Franklin, a 32-year-old right-hander who was i-10 on the road last year in a 4-16 season, threw 16 straight strikes to begin the game.
The Mariners batted around in a seven-run eighth as Ichiro Suzuki, Adrian Beltre and Miguel Olivo each had two RBIs.
"I made pretty decent pitches. I didn't leave too much over the middle of the plate. It was just one of those days," he said. "A lot of those balls could have fell in. A lot of those ground balls could have found the hole."
Franklin walked two and struck out one and was charged with two runs. Mike Sweeney followed Gotay's ninth-inning walk with a single, and then with two outs, Emil Brown hit an RBI single to break up the shutout and bring in J.J. Putz from the bullpen. Terrence Long singled off Putz.
"He didn't throw any balls. Everything was strike, strike, strike," Gotay said.
Franklin, who threw an efficient 83 pitches, figures to get at least two
more starts before Madritsch comes back from the DL.
Manager Mike Hargrove admitted he may have to reconsider his decision to put Franklin in the bullpen.
"I think he'll get a couple of more starts at the very least," Hargrove said. "If he keeps pitching like this, then we'll have to look at the possibility of him getting a whole lot more starts."
Franklin, who last year became the first Mariner since 1992 to lose 15 games, gave up a double to Sweeney in the first inning, a single to Angel Berroa in the second and a single to Gotay in the third then shut down the Royals until the ninth.
Runelvy Hernandez (1-1), who missed the entire 2004 season after undergoing elbow surgery, went 7 1-
3 innings and allowed six hits until Jeremy Reed's one-out double in the eighth. Beltre then hit his first home run for a 3-1 lead.
"That one pitch got me out of the game," Hernandez said. "I expected a better outing of myself."
Hernandez gave up eight hits and four runs, with three walks and four strikeouts.
With the bases loaded in the eighth, reliever Nate Field gave up a two-run single to Olivo and a one-run single to Wilson Valdez that made it 6-0.
Suzuki, who earlier extended his hitting streak to 19 games dating to last season, then dropped a two-run double into left.
Bret Boone had an RBI single off Hernandez in the fourth.

Beat
The main objectives in choosing an appropriate song are simple to Kansas relief pitcher Don Czyz. He said the song had to represent and pump up a player before he stepped to the plate or ran out to the mound.
The junior, who is introduced with the song "Dareh Meyod" by O.A.R., said the song fired him up before he tried to close out a game.
He said choosing the song took some time, but once he began listening to O.A.R. last year, he thought it had a catchy beat and could represent him.
Picking a song isn't as easy for the rest of the team. Freshman infielder John Allman said anytime players drove somewhere and heard a
promising song, they would play it a few extra times to see if it could work for an introduction.
One player that had trouble choosing was junior infielder Jared Schweitzer. He couldn't come up with a song on his own, and admitted that he stole the Metallica song "Human" from a Triple A player.
Senior catcher Sean Richardson said he busted out of a slump earlier this year because he switched songs.
Kansas players said their introduction songs were for fun, but a some said they thought the tunes could impact their game performances.
"I'll put on Yanni if it helps me get hits out there." he said.
with the Pennywise song "Bro Hymn," but earlier in the year his song was "Jailhouse" by Sublime. He said he made the switch because he wasn't getting important hits and needed something to change his mindset.
Richardson said he got three hits and a couple RBI in the first game after switching songs. But if something terrible happens with his swing, he said he wouldn't change the song again.
"I just wasn't feeling it," he said. "I figured I was doing well last year, but not this year, and I decided it was the song that was holding me back."
Richardson is introduced
"Some of these guys make jokes about me, but I think your song can be a big factor," he said. "It just gets you ready to hit."

BASEBALL
ST. LOUIS — Just like last season, the St. Louis Cardinals have stumbled out of the gate.
Losing start doesn't worry Cardinals yet
Knowing they led the major leagues with 105 victories last year and won the team's first NL pennant in 17 seasons keeps them calm about their mediocre 2-3 start and in particular the last two games, a pair of double-digit severe beatdowns at the hands of the Philadelphia Phillies.
"We're definitely dragging a little bit and we we're not playing the best baseball we can play," pitcher Chris Carpenter said. "But I wouldn't put any question into what kind of ability we have and what kind of team we have.
"Go back and look at last year and see how we started. Give us a few months and we'll go from there."
The Cardinals dropped three of four at home against the Brewers to start the 2004 season, got swept at Houston at home later that month and were 12-11 at the end of April. But from June on, they closed with a 78-34 rush and outscored the opposition by nearly 200 runs over the long haul.
"You're always concerned," manager Tony La Russa said. "It's not how we came out here to play. But whatever it is, I'm sure we'll fix it."

"I was looking for three all the way." Bender said. "But once I realized that she wasn't running, I stood around and let her get home."
Lock scored while Bender was tagged out in a rundown.
Title LX took advantage of fielding errors by the Gentlemen to score runs, especially early in the game. In just six innings, 'the team amassed 41 at-bats.
"You can tell by the way they stand where they won't be able to hit it." she said.
The Gentlemen also had to contend with Title IX pitcher Michaela Ayers. Ayers struck out three batters and put a two-strike count on seven others.
Title IX built on its three-run first with another run in the second and third innings. The final four innings of the game were scoreless and went at a fast pace.
"I haven't pitched since fifth grade," Ayers, Omaha, Neb., freshman, said. "I guess I still have skills."
Ayers also noticed a trend among the Kentucky Gentlemen batters.
Toward the end of the game,

a light rain fell. It was not enough to distract the players, so play continued.
The Kentucky Gentlemen never mounted a charge and never had more than four batters in an inning.
Title IX grouped its rallies together, almost sending its entire lineup to the plate in the first inning.
With one game remaining,
Title IX advanced to the top of
its pool standings at 2-0. The
Kentucky Gentlemen are tied
for second at 1-1.
Following the game, the players didn't have that on their minds, however.

League suspends player for steroids
NEW YORK — Colorado Rockies outfielder Jorge Piedra was suspended for 10 days yesterday for violating baseball's new policy on performance-enhancing drugs, becoming the second player to be publicly identified under the major leagues' tougher rules.
The suspension began with the Rockies game at Arizona last night, the commissioner's office said.
Piedra was recalled from Triple-A Colorado Springs of the Pacific Coast League on Wednesday and sent back down the next day.
“It’s unfortunate,” said commissioner Bud Selig, who was in Boston for the Red Sox-Yankees game. “I’m afraid this probably won't be the last one.”
Tampa Bay outfielder Alex Sanchez was also suspended for 10 days yesterday. He said he tested positive from a supplement he bought over the counter before Jan. 15, when it was made a controlled substance.
Selig wouldn't say whether he believed Sanchez. "I want to be kind," Selig said. "He did not fight his suspension, and I'll rest my case on that."
Under the new policy that took effect last month, steroids and other performance-enhancing substances are the only drugs to draw a 10-day suspension. Baseball officials and the players' union agreed they would not disclose the exact substance for which a player tests positive.
The Rockies issued a statement yesterday calling the situation "unfortunate."
"As an organization we have, and will continue to support Major League Baseball and its drug testing policies," team president Keli McGregor said.

Former Wildcat charged with rape
MANHATTAN — A former Kansas State football player was charged yesterday with raping a woman in the dorm where he lives.
Aaron Darks, 19, was being held on $25,000 bond after appearing in court yesterday afternoon. The alleged rape happened early Friday morning. Darks was arrested Saturday after turning himself in to university police.
Kansas State said Darks, a redshirt freshman linebacker from Lufkin, Texas, had been cut from the team before the start of spring practice for violating team rules. Earlier this year, Darks submitted a request for withdrawal from all of his classes at the university, officials said.
Before he came to Kansas State, Darks was considered the 28th-best inside linebacker in the country out of high school.

Player dies from spinal cord injury
LOS ANGELES — Arena Football League teammates of AI Lucas stood stunned as the 300-pound lineman they called "Big Luke" was carried motionless on a stretcher off the Staples Center floor.
ARENA FOOTBALL
Lucas, 26, a former player with the NFL's Carolina Panthers, died Sunday from a presumed spinal cord injury sustained while trying to make a tackle for the Los Angeles Avengers, the team said.
Players prayed on the sidelines and about 11,000 people watched from the stands as Lucas was carried from the field. He was pronounced dead at California Hospital, team physician Dr. Luga Podesta said in a statement. An autopsy was planned for yesterday or today.

BY RYAN COLAINNI

KANSAN SPORTWRITER
The Big 12 Conference's North division appears to be as open as it was last season, with no real front-runner for the title.
Nebraska
This will be an important season for second-year coach Bill Callahan. He led the Cornhuskers to a disappointing 5-6 record last season, when the team failed to make a bowl game for the first time in more than two decades. With one of the top recruiting classes in the nation, the Cornhuskers have high expectations for next season. Sophomore quarterback Joe Dailey will have to battle for the job and may lose it to incoming quarterback Harrison Beck who is the third-ranked prospect according to *Rivals.com*. The 'Huskers will likely improve after having one season to adjust to Callahan's West Coast offense.
It has been a long time since the expectations for Kansas football have been so high, but it is for good reason. The Jayhawks have a chance to make it to their first-ever Big 12 Conference championship game and a return to a bowl game for the second time in three seasons. The defense, which improved drastically last season, returns first队 All-Big 12 selections sophomore wide receiver and cornerback Charles Gordon and junior linebacker Nick Reid. The team has lost its leading rusher, sophomore running back John Randle, who was dismissed from the team just before spring practices began in March. Junior Clark Green and freshman Gary Green, however, will fill in for Randle and both have been impressive in spring practices thus far.
Kansas
Missouri
Colorado
Last year's season began with promise as coach Gary Pinkel touted his junior quarterback Brad Smith as a Heisman candidate. Smith struggled last season and the Tigers finished 5-6. But he will be back for his senior season and will attempt to live up to the hype of being a dual-threat quarterback. The Tigers will be young at the running back position, with four freshman competing for the job. Missouri also returns its top receiver, junior Sean Coffey.
The Buffaloes won the division by default last season, reaching the championship game when Iowa State lost, in overtime, in the final regular-season game. Once again, the off-season was full of off-field distractions, particularly when the university president resigned due to scandals, including the football recruiting violations that allegedly occurred over the summer of 2003. The team returns junior quarterback Joel Klatt, but loses last season's leading rusher, senior tailback Bobby Purify.
Iowa State
Although the Cyclones may be the youngest team in the conference, their youth may cause problems for other conference teams now that they have a full season, including a bowl trip, under their belt. The team returns all the key pieces on offense, including freshman quarterback Bret Meyer, sophomore running back Stevie Hicks Jr., and freshman wide receiver Todd Blythe. Blyte had a breakout year last
ince spring season because of the graduation of Dan Cody.
season, including catching 39 passes and nine touchdowns, but he tore his ACL in March. He was named a freshman second team All-American by The Sporting News and is expected to be ready for the season opener on Sept. 3.
Kansas State
Last season was one of the Wildcats' most disappointing in a long time. They won the Big 12 Championship the previous year, but followed it with a 4-7 record, including missing a bowl game, last season. The biggest loss from last season is senior running back Darren Sproles. Junior running back Carlos Alsup will likely replace Sproles. Sophomore quarterback Dylan Meier also left the team to attend Pittsburg State.
favorite to win the conference. A non-conference road game against Ohio State in September will dictate if the team is as good as advertised. Young will have to deal with the loss of senior running back Cedrick Benson, who led the team and the conference in rushing last season. The team also lost senior linebacker Derrick Johnson to graduation. But the team does return a solid offensive line, led by junior offensive tackle Jonathan Scott.
The South: It appears that next season will be similar to last year. Texas and Oklahoma will lead the division and, ultimately, the entire conference.
With sophomore quarterback Vince Young under center, the Longhorns could be the early
Oklahoma
Texas
Oklahoma lost more than just the National Championship game last season. It also lost a large number of seniors. Seven Associated Press first-team All-Conference players graduated. But it won't be surprising if Oklahoma doesn't miss a beat. Heisman Trophy runner-up freshman back Adrian Peterson will dictate the success of the Sooners this season. With the loss of 2003 Heisman winner Jason White to graduation, the Sooners will likely be inexperienced at the quarterback position. The Sooners also have a gap at the linebacker position,
Texas Tech
One thing is certain about the Red Raiders next season: They will continue the high-flying offense they have used every season under coach Mike Leach. The team does lose senior quarterback Sunny Cumble, who passed for more than 4,700 yards last season. But expect senior Cody Hodges and freshman Graham Harrell to compete for the job. Hodges, who passed for 54 yards and two touchdowns, was the only other quarterback to see action last year. The team will return leading rusher Taurean Henderson.
Oklahoma State
The Cowboys will have a different coach this spring, as Mike Gundy replaced Les Miles, who left the program to coach at Louisiana State. Oklahoma State went 7-5 last season. Freshman Donovan Woods will continue to lead the Cowboys at quarterback into next year. He passed for 1,628 yards last year, many of which went to his brother and one of his favorite targets, DJuan Woods. Donovan is also efficient at running the ball. The team did lose The Associated Press All-Big 12 first-team selections and seniors Sam Mayes, offensive lineman, and Billy Bajem, tight end.
Texas A&M
The Aggies rebounded from a disappointing 2003 season with a 7-5 record last fall. The Aggies look to build upon last year's showing and challenge for the Big 12 South title. The Aggies will have to rebuild their offensive line, where they lost senior center Geoff Hangartner. They also lost defensive lineman Mike Montgomery. At quarterback, Reggie McNeal will be the starter. He started all 12 of the Aggies games last season.
Same story, different day for the Baylor Bears, as they will likely be the conference's cellar representative. Like many conference schools, Baylor will also have a quarterback controversy during the spring and summer months. The Bears lost Dane King, who left the team after last season. Sophomore Shawn Bell and freshman Terrance Parks should compete for the job.

ADMINISTRATION
Replacement dean selected DeSalvo to take Johnson's place
BY TY BEAVER
beaver@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
It wasn't a job he ever expected to have, but when Frank DeSalvo, director of Counseling and Psychological Services, heard the University of Kansas needed an interim dean of students, he offered to help in any way he could.
Marlesa Roney, vice provost for student success, approached DeSalvo with the position last week after Richard Johnson's termination.
Tremendous skills in working with students and a sense of respect from students, faculty and staff were a few of the reasons Roney chose him for the position.
"He was an individual I could turn to and help us through a transition that isn't easy," she said.
Duties for the dean of students were the responsibilities assigned to DeSalvo, Roney said. Some of those duties include being in charge of some graduation festivities and coordinating homecoming.
Johnson's duties as associate vice provost were divided between Roney, Richard Morrell and Kathryn Nemeth Tuttle, who also work in the office of student success.
She said students should not worry whether the office would be able to provide services and that the office has a great staff.
Roney asked her University colleagues to bring up anything they think may fall between the cracks during the transition.
SOURCES NEEDED
The University Daily Kansan is in search of students involved in the formal complaint against Richard Johnson, former dean of students. The Kansan has requested a copy of the complaint under the Freedom of Information Act. If you have any information about the complaint, please call (785) 864-4810 and ask for Ty Beaver or Dani Litt, or e-mail tbeaver@kansan.com. The identity of anyone who comes forward will be protected.
DeSalvo accepted the position on a temporary basis. As director of counseling and psychological services, he planned to rely upon the office staff to finish the semester smoothly.
Given the situation, DeSalvo understands students may be concerned about the office's services.
He said he wants to reassure students that their needs will be taken care of through the end of the academic year and beyond.
A search for a new dean has not begun. Within the next two months, the University will step back and begin looking for a new dean of students, Roney said.
"We're not in a big, big hurry. We want to focus on the semester and the end of the academic year, and then do long-range planning," she said.

PARKING DEPARTMENT
Permit pains
Few see bright side to looming rises in parking prices
BY JOHSHA BICKEL

KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Linda Shotts isn't subtle in expressing her opinion about next year's parking rate.
"This sucks ..."
But, there is nothing she can do about it, said Shotts, an office manager in the department of Spanish and Portuguese.
Students, faculty and staff members had mixed reactions to the increase, ranging from indifference to frustration and anger.
Last week, Provost David Shulenburger approved a plan to increase the price of all yellow, red, blue, gold and residence hall parking permits by $55 for fall. Reserved permits will increase by $100.
"If I'm going to pay that
SEE PERMIT ON PAGE 6A
Raising prices isn't fair, but she still needs to park her car somewhere, Shotts said. Next year, she'll probably get rid of her gold permit and buy a cheaper, but still expensive, red permit, she said.
More out of the wallet
Shotts said she wanted the money she spent on parking to be worth something.

Provost David Shulenburger approved a plan last week to increase the price of yellow, red, blue, gold and residence hall parking permits by $55. Times have changed. The price of a residence hall parking permit during the 1989-90 school year was $23.

For the first time in Senate history, all voting will be done online. Students must go to www.ku.edu/computing/election to vote.
Last year's turnout was 14 percent, but the candidates expect the turnout to be higher this year because of the online voting.

"In theory, the numbers should go up because it will be easier for students to vote," Nick Sterner, presidential candidate for KUnited, said. "However, without on-campus polling sites, students may not be aware that the election is going on. My hopes are is that it goes up and more students vote."
Open from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. today and from 6 a.m. to 4 p.m. tomorrow
To vote online students should go to http://www.ku.edu/computing/election/ Once the page loads students must log on using their KU usernames and passwords. Students then must enter their KUID. Students will then be taken to their ballot, where they may cast their votes for President and Vice President, as well as for enate seats that represent them.
Last year, students were allowed to vote on the computer but had to do it from a terminal set up on campus. This year students can vote from any computer on campus or off campus.
No physical polling sites will be used this year. Students can vote from any computer with Internet access.
Students are allowed to vote for the president and vice president along with senators who are in the schools that students are
This year's presidential and vice presidential candidates for KUnited are Sterner, Shawnee junior, and Marynell Jones, Dallas junior, respectively.

Besides voting for the Senate candidates, students can also vote on the two referendums that are on the ballot. Both referendums are proposed fee increases for on-campus organizations.

About 75 KU students were so excited to see Andrew W.K. perform that they rushed the stage during the last song of his set. W.K. has a reputation for rowdy fans during performances, but last night it caused a power outage.
Coordinators from Student Union Activities said that someone may have tripped a cord.
More than 1,000 KU students gathered at the parking lot behind the Lied Center for the SUA sponsored concert featuring four acts.

Cingular approached us and asked if we could find them a venue for their tour," Rachel Peart, Overland Park junior and SUA president, said.
The band line-up included hip-hop artist Hush, punk rock bands Squad Five-0 and The High Speed Scene and Andrew W. K.
SUA used the event to increase awareness of its organization and increase voter turnout in this week's elections. If SUA gets the vote for Student Union Activities Fee they will possibly be able to bring in entertainers such as Jon Stewart, Chris Rock and Ben Folds Five next year with the increased budget.
"We only get $100,000 a year right now," Peart said, comparing the student activity budget to other schools such as Texas A&M, which gets more than $2 million a year.
Andrew W.K. rocks out on the guitar during his performance on the lawn outside the Lied Center last night. The concert, which included three other acts, started at 6 p.m. and lasted until 9 p.m., attracting more than 1,000 people.
The SUA had to pay only to rent the Lied Center and technical equipment. Cingular paid for the bands to come.
WK., who is a three-time Vans Warp Tour artist and also has his own show on MTV, attracted the largest crowd. He said he was excited to play for an exclusively college-aged audience,but did want the outside public to know it wasn't his choice to exclude them.
"I just want to play music," he said.
"I just want to play music," he said. The concert was an overall success for Cingular and SUA, who handed out more than 100 prizes, including cellular phones, T-shirts and CDs, Ron Humphries, Cingular area retail sales manager, said.
"We're your typical, crazy, run-of-the-mill, average punk kids." Dave
Petersen, drummer for Squad Five-0,
said during his band's performance.
One of the highlights of the concert was when Squad Five-0 lead singer Jeff Fortson jumped into the crowd and moshed with the fans.

After Kansans voted in favor of an amendment banning gay marriage throughout the state last week, Solomonese decided Kansas was the place most in need of his message. Solomonese spoke last night in the Hall Center for the Humanities, southwest of Watson Library, about the need for continued involvement in fighting legislation he deemed unequal.

Solmonese urged the more than 30 audience members to not be discouraged by the outcome in Kansas, but to think of it as a stepping stone in the right direction. He then gave the audience an opportunity to voice any discouragement they had about the state amendment. Solmonese's response became a pep talk as he offered words to sooth frustrations.
Stephanie Puddy, Sioux City, Iowa, sophomore, was encouraged by what Solmonese said.
"I'm from out of state and I've never considered changing my voter registration because I saw a vote in Kansas as a lost vote in a Republican state," Puddy said. "But this made it seem promising, like a move toward a more progressive future."

Yoga helps prevent muscle pain
[ ]
Ashley Cooke, Kansas City, Mo., senior, poses in a backbend in a yoga class yesterday at the Student Recreation Fitness Center. A study shows that yoga may be a good preventative measure for muscle soreness.
BY WHITNEY MATHEWS
correspondent@kansan.com
KANSAN CORRESPONDENT
Adam Engel nearly lives in the gym. The first-year pharmacy student from Salina sweats at the Student Recreation Fitness Center at least five days a week for two hours a day.
But when he is overwhelmed with his studies, Engel has to adjust his workout regimen. During busy periods, he can lift weights only a few times a week. It's during those weeks Engel wakes up the next day with sore muscles.
Engel has a condition called Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness. DOMS describe the muscle pain after physical activity that the body isn't used to performing. Although there is no specific cure for DOMS, a recent study shows that yoga could be it. The first study to research yoga and DOMS was published last November in the Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research. The results imply that practicing yoga decreases DOMS.
"I can always tell if I'm slacking off," Engel said. "I'll be sore for a couple days."
Yoga is a practice that increases mental and physical endurance and strength. According to Yoga Journal magazine, modern yoga involves a series of physical positions. The sequences of positions release toxins from the body, and improve the mental and physical endurance required for long periods of meditation.
Yoga: A wonder drug?
For every study that demonstrates the effectiveness of a particular DOMS therapy, there is a contrasting study that shows little or no effectiveness for that treatment except for yoga.
Muscles need to be broken down for them to build up. The pain of DOMS is a physical symptom of the breakdown and build-up process. The study shows practicing yoga conditions muscles in a way that decreases soreness by an average of 56 percent
Stephen Sayers, assistant profes
sor of exercise science at the University of Missouri, who contributed to the study, said that treatments have been studied to relieve DOMS symptoms, including acupuncture, laser therapy, oxygen therapy, anti-inflammatory medication and nutritional supplements.
Those treatments focused on easing pain after muscular breakdown had started. Sayers and his colleagues focused their study on preventing muscle soreness before it started.
"We thought it may be that instead of treating the symptoms of muscle damage from DOMS, prevention of damage through muscle adaptation is the best strategy," Savers said.
But Sayers warns that yoga is not an instant cure for DOMS. In fact, some people doing yoga for the first time could experience muscle soreness. He does recommend it to those who work out regularly, and are looking for soreness relief.
"I would especially recommend yoga to athletes during their offseason," Sayers said. "It would be a good way to precondition muscles
to be less susceptible to DOMS."
Margaret Carr, co-owner and codirector of the Yoga Center of Lawrence. 920 Massachusetts St., agreed with Sayers.
"If you're not very athletic, you will experience some soreness the first time you do yoga," Carr said. "But after awhile you'll experience a big increase in muscle condition."
Carr said the type of yoga practiced at the center, Iyengar yoga, would be beneficial for people experiencing DOMS.
Lyengar yoga is known for precisely aligning bones and muscles, and improving posture and toning. Carr said that many of her clients notice differences in their bodies after a few sessions.
"People come into class and tell me they are standing straighter, and more aware of how their body and muscles feel when after certain activities," Carr said. "They tend to pick up quickly that yoga practice is a whole mind and whole body experience."
Appeal for athletes
Carr emphasizes in her classes
"I can always tell if
can always tell if I'm slacking off. I'll be sore for a couple days."

Adam Engel
that sports tend to isolate a certain muscle group, but yoga works all the body's muscles equally and symmetrically.
A few years ago, the University of Kansas women's tennis team came to the Yoga Center of Lawrence to put variety into their conditioning.
"These 20-year-old girls were telling me about muscles they hadn't worked in years," Carr said. "And they could feel them getting stronger after a few sessions."
Even though people have practiced yoga for thousands of years, scientific research on its benefits has just begun. Sayers said he was happy with the DOMS prevention study, but he would like to see more skeletal and muscular research that used yoga.
Sayers agreed that the benefits of yoga extend far beyond DOMS prevention. He said there was evidence that yoga not only relieved DOMS, but that it improved muscle strength and endurance. There is also evidence that yoga helps prevent cardiac problems, such as heart attacks, and relieves stress.
The Student Recreation Fitness Center offers yoga classes at various times during the week. The classes are a part of the KU Fit program, and free to all KU students.
CORRECTION
"I think there are some important studies that need to be examined." Sayers said. "Especially with mobility limitations, cardiovascular health, and balance-control issues."

Israeli denounces terrorists
The people of Israel want peace, but their biggest obstacle in achieving that peace is the "toxic education" and "toxic culture" of the terrorists in Palestine. Yehiel Leiter said last night.
Leiter, chief of staff for Israeli Finance Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, spoke to students at the Robert J. Dole Institute of Politics about Israel's role in peace in the Middle East.
The speech was sponsored by Caravan for Democracy, KU Hillel and KU Israel Alliance.
Leiter said that Israel was able to become the fastest-growing economy in the world after moving out of its perpetual "poverty triangle." He described the triangle as the process in which the state kept giving money to people who didn't
work, which ended up raising taxes. Higher taxes on businesses resulted in businesses closing, continuing the triangle.
One person asked Lelter to comment on studies from Harvard that said that former PLO leader Yasser Arafat was a puppet ruler who didn't make decisions for Palestine
Leiter said it was typical of "citadels of learning" to make excuses for dictators. He said that Arafat was a dictator with complete control, and after his "demise," Palestinians needed to embark on the detoxification of Palestine in order to end terrorism.
"Terrorists don't have an opinion, and if they do, it's irrelevant," he said.
But even though Leiter said that Israel was for peace, Kahil Saad, Wichita junior, said Leiter ignored the need for better cooperation with Palestine.
The friendly crowd often applauded during his speech, and the question-and-answer session that followed included questions mostly sympathetic to the Israeli cause.
"The discussion carried on too short and did not allow for another opinion," he said.
Lauren  Rabinowitz,
Minnetonka, Minn., freshman,
said she supported Leiter's
ideas.
"I thought he did a great job articulating a voice that isn't often heard in the media," said Rabinowitz, a member of KU Israel Alliance.
The Caravan, an organization that brings Israeli speakers to college campuses, chose to bring Leiter to the University of Kansas because it knew that the University had a relatively large Jewish population and it showed interest in bringing a speaker here. Talia Andron, campus coordinator for the Caravan, said that the goal was
to bring Israeli speakers to campuses to speak about what is going on in the Middle East and give students more than a snapshot of Israel.
The Caravan provided extra security for the event, including checking bags and registering the names of all who attended the speech.
Andron said the security was provided to all of the speakers the organization sponsored to make them more comfortable. In Israel, such precautions are routine. Andron said.
The Caravan was created in the spring of 2002 by the Jewish National Fund, Mediawatch International and Hamagshim.
The program was also co-sponsored by Alpha Epsilon Pi fraternity, Sigma Delta Tau sorority and the international studies department.

said the complex had an open house for the sorority last Saturday.
The sorority only leased the house on Stewart Avenue until June, said Kim Heck, Alpha Gamma Delta house association president. Sorority officials had expected that the new house on Sigma Nu Place would be completed before the lease ran up.
Heck said she wanted to move into the new house by Fall 2006. Construction on the house has not yet begun, which Heck said was surprising.
"We had expected our construction to move at a quicker pace." she said.
Until then, members will live
in apartments at The Legends.
Greene said he wasn't sure if the fraternity would take possession of the house this summer. He said the 85-member fraternity would have the house no later than fall.
Fraternity members lived in The Legends for the past two years in Building 8, along with a few members in Buildings 4 and 7.
"I can't really have that fraternity feeling when we're all separated," Greene said. "With the house, it will bring that whole atmosphere back."
Lambda Chi Alpha had to move out of its house across from Sigma Nu fraternity, 1501 Sigma Nu Place, two years ago because of mold problems, Greene said. Members have been looking for a house ever since.
Raymond Berrens, Lambda Chi Alpha member and Overland Park freshman, said was positive about moving into the house.
"Right now, we don't have as much of a presence as I'd like on campus," he said. "When we get a house near campus, people may get to know us more."
Berrens said there were benefits to moving to the house aside from increasing the fraternity's profile on campus. He said he would purchase a bus pass next year as opposed to purchasing a yellow parking permit like he did this year. Riding the bus to The Legends was a possibility, but only one bus comes for every hour, Berrens said.
Fraternity members will not have to cook meals as they did in The Legends. Members will
"It will just be nice not having to worry about going grocery shopping every month," Berrens said.
have the opportunity to purchase a meal plan where the house mom prepares the food.
Greene said he did not know the arrangement of the house, but he said members would share rooms and bathrooms.
As a freshman, this will be the first time Berrens will be able to live in a fraternity house. He said he was happy about moving into a house and recognizes the benefits, but he also accepts the drawbacks.
At The Legends, members had their own bathrooms and showers. This will not be the case at the house.

Moped collision leaves student OK
A 19-year-old KU student was involved in an injury accident yesterday afternoon in front of Mrs. E's.
The student was driving his moped southbound on Engel Road when he collided with the back of a blue minivan while attempting a U-turn, said Arthur Jones, Dallas, Texas, junior, who was at the scene.
The student flipped over the handlebars of the moped and fell on the street, Jones said.
Jones then immediately called 911 about 4:50 p.m.
The student appeared alert and conscious right after the accident, but did not move from where he had fallen, Jones said.
The student refused treatment at the scene of the accident and did not appear to have serious injuries, Jones said.

Marriage amendment repercussions
PAGE 5A
EDITORIAL BOARD
Call for consistency in future legislation of Kansas politics
Kansans have made their decision about the same-sex marriage issue. Last week, Kansans voted and
decided — 70 percent to 30 percent — that a constitutional amendment against same-sex marriage should be established. For many, the news is good because it buries the subject that has been so prevalent in the press.
Although the media has pounded this issue with rhetoric for and against same-sex marriage, few grasp why the media debated this topic so heavily. The issue of same-sex marriage and the state is a larger issue.
Although some argue that it is morally refreshing to see such legislation pass, others
The Kansas constitutional amendment against gay marriage carries with it underlying implications that will affect future legislation in the state. Whether voters looked at the issue from a moral or legal standpoint, the state needs to be consistent in its policies.
Last week's vote not only outlawed same-sex marriage but also set the tone for Kansas politics in the future. The importance lies in the underlying issues at the heart of the same-sex marriage issue.
A person must first evaluate the necessity for allowing or banning same-sex marriage in the state. This will inevitably draw a person to ponder the necessity for marriage at all. When a person has thought about these he will draw arguments from the government, such as taxes or insurance and others from religion, such as morality. Here lies the basis for most voters' decisions. Did they look at the issue from a legal standpoint or a moral one?
If voters outlawed same-sex marriage on legal issues, then a person must ask why the laws can't be changed. Why should the act be outlawed if it can somehow be written into the state in a way that gives gays their rights but does not tread on others?
On the other hand, if voters used morality as their paradigm for change, where will the buck stop? Some think divorce is immoral, so will there soon be a bill outlawing it as well? Whose morals should we follow?
The question thus posed to all is: How much should religion influence the state? Two parts state, one part God? No matter what the mix is, people should strive for consistency. Find a common ground, and stick with it.
ague that it is mostly such legislation pass, others cannot fathom how this could occur. Regardless of viewpoint, the result of the election brings a combination of issues to the forefront. It does not emulate church vs. state, but instead shows an amalgamation of both.
The realities of the vote reveal that there were a combination of both factors spinning in voters' heads in the voting booth.

Voters' decision fails to uphold democracy, pluralism in state
D.
MIKE PETERSON opinion@kansan.com
The recent passage of the marriage amendment has brought about a few realizations regarding our state and country, as well as the nature of political discourse in both.
The public proponents of the amendment share a common thread, a mandatory reference to God. The lines usually follow: "... outside of God's plan ..." or "... not natural ..." or "... God didn't intend ..." Seeing these references to God seems to be inappropriate in the political debate.
Acquiescence to religious ideals in the sphere of public policy is tantamount to using the democratic process to institute a theocracy, which is exactly what is going on here in our beloved Kansas and elsewhere around our great nation.

Doug Lang/KANSAN
Under the guise of protecting our "culture" or preventing "moral decay," zealots from coast to coast are injecting their religious beliefs into public policy and into the decision-making process. Though the word "God" may not be used expressly, it is effectively present in the agenda. Some of my detractors may say that people have a right to propose whichever policy they wish and, similarly, have the right to vote as they wish, and with these assertions I have no quarrel. But, there are also certain duties associated with our rights.
First and foremost, we have the duty to uphold democracy and the pluralist ideals on which it stands. When our laws and statutes begin to reflect religious doctrine, the freedom and opinions of others are discounted, if not completely disregarded. In this assertion, I am not only referring to the marriage amendment, but also the abortion debate and the Schiavo case, as well as prayer in school and other similar issues (most of which are on the conservative agenda).
Further, the good nature and intentions of advocates of such policy changes can be useful to the policy-making process. For example, if life is to be valued above all else and families and marriage are to be protected, then there are many policy alternatives that could reflect this sentiment, other than those related to the abortion and same-sex union debates.
If we value the survival of infants or fetuses, why not support increased funding and availability of pre-natal care or make health care more accessible to families in need of these services.
Admittedly, it is easier to respond to policies with a knee-jerk reaction, letting the first sentiment rise up and drown out the music of a open-minded and rational approach to problem-solving. But this must be resisted with every fiber of our being. No problem is cut and dry, so we bary of those who would entreat you to see them as such. Regardless of our own personal religious and moral beliefs, we must uphold a standard of pluralism in our policies.
If our policies do not reflect democratic and pluralist ideals, then our state begins to look more like Afghanistan under the Taliban rather than America "by the people for the people." If that is the case, then we all know what that means: The terrorists win.

Relive childhood; forget about society's body image pressures
EMILY FOWLER AND KEYARASH JAHANIAN opinion@kansan.com
This column is addressed to anyone reading The University Daily Kansan.
Do us a favor and think back to the days when life was easy and summers were long. As a child, do you remember feeling fat, or openly expressing the need to go on a diet? Did these feelings become so extreme that if you were offered another Bomb Pop or Flintstone's Push-Up Pop, you might refrain because you were trying to lose a few pounds?
Many of you, regardless of being male or female, did not feel the same pressures from society that the young children of today feel. One example of the disturbing statistics we found for this age group was that 81 percent of 10-year-olds are afraid of being fat, while 51 percent of 9- and 10-year-old girls feel better about themselves if they are on a diet, according to information provided by the Emily Tavlor Women's Resource Center.
While one might assume that growing older and gaining knowledge about different aspects of health would cause these percentages to decrease, the statistics of eating disorders for our age group prove this assumption to be wrong. One disturbing statistic is that according to The Center for Mental Health Services, 90 percent of those who have eating disorders are between the ages of 12 and 25. Poor self-image and eating disorders are caused by many different catalysts, such as stress from family and school. Drastic changes, such as moving to college, create new catalysts every day.
What we are asking you to do today is stop letting yourself be negatively affected by outside forces and opinions. Being thin is not the key to having a great life — happiness is. Positive self image is not only being happy with
If our childhood selves saw how serious the problem of low self image and eating disorders has become then not only would they shake their heads in disappointment, but they would also still gladly accept that second or maybe even third nonsicle.
is not only being happy with your body, but also with your personality, mentality, imagination and numerous other personal attributes.
Don't let yourself be influenced by society. Love your body as it is, and determine your own self worth.
In honor of Body Image Week, indulge your inner child by treating yourself to at least two Bomb Pops or Flintstone's Push-Up Pops. Starting today, remember that a scale or a pair of "skinny jeans" doesn't dictate your self worth, you do.

Highberger chosen to be city's mayor
Instead of politics, tradition and emotion dominated the Lawrence City Commission meeting last night.
Mike Rundle returned to a commissioner's seat after his term as mayor. The five-person commission then unanimously elected Dennis "Boog" Highberger as the new mo-
Before stepping down, Rundle said that he was proud to have served as Lawrence's first gay mayor.
He said that the state's recent passage of a constitutional amendment prohibiting gay marriage and the slander targeted at him in his last commission campaign led him to acknowledge his sexuality.
Highberger will now serve as mayor for one year.
"There are not many places ... where an ex-hippie, disabled guy with a funny name can become mayor," Highberger said. "That is why I love Lawrence."
The three open commission seats were also filled last night. Mike Amyx joined incumbent commissioners Sue Hack and David Schauner in being sworn in by city clerk Frank Reeb.
Amyx replaced commissioner David Dunfield, who did not seek re-election after six years on the commission. Amyx was also unanimously elected vice mayor.

Sexual history bill signed into law
TOPEKA — A bill designed to make it less likely that alleged victims will have their sexual histories scrutinized during court proceedings was signed into law yesterday by Gov. Kathleen Sebelius.
The measure, taking effect July 1, expands the state's rape shield law. That law prohibits evidence at trial of an alleged victim's previous sexual conduct, unless a judge decides it's relevant. The law applies in cases of rape and other sex crimes, including those against children.
Chairman defends Bush's policies
SPEAKER
Education is essential to lowering crime and promoting civil rights, Gerald Reynolds, chairman of the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights, said last night.

The No Child Left Behind legislation and other facets of education were key topics of conversation between Reynolds and about 30 KU students at Alderson Auditorium in the Kansas Union. The speech was

given as part of a lecture series for a class in African and African-American studies.
Civil rights in the past and its implications for the future was the focus of Reynolds' speech.
"Civil rights has always been a means to freedom," Reynolds said. "There are opportunities now that people only once dreamed of."
After the speech Reynolds was repeatedly questioned
Every question was coily answered by Reynolds, but the questions were often feisty, with people badgering him on topics ranging from rap music to skills learned in school. Students wanted to know if Reynolds thought rap music was harmful to youth culture.
about the Bush administration and the No Child Left Behind Act.
Reynolds was asked on a number of occasions whether he thought that No Child Left Behind was good, and he replied
"yes" every time. The policy had many benefits, he said.
Reactions to his comments were mixed.
The legislation provided states with a goal in education, requiring them to actually teach the children, Reynolds said.
"I personally agreed with what he was saying," Jenny Short, Olathe sophomore, said. "I thought his points were valid and I agreed that children should be tested."

Others in the audience asked how the legislation affected
Reynolds claimed that the No Child Left Behind legislation finally held people responsible for teaching and for learning.
"Schools are now being forced to educate their children," Reynolds said. "At the end of the day, love it or hate it, it makes people think about the importance of education."

money to the Parking Department, I want a guaranteed spot," she said.
Becca Thom has a yellow permit. Her reaction to next year's increase was simple. "I hate it," said Thom. Paola junior.
Overselling of permits was Thom's biggest complaint about parking on campus.
"It's silly to have a permit," she said. "I spend more time looking for a space than what it would take me to walk."
Others, like Rob Rosasco, said they didn't like the increase, but that there wasn't anything they could do about it because they needed a permit to park on campus.
"I'll probably start riding my bike to campus a little bit more," said Rosasco, Southbury, Conn., junior.
Increases in permit rates might cause people to think about alternative means of transportation, said Leslie Tuttle, assistant professor of history.
Tuttle doesn't have a permit because she lives close to campus, but she has owned a red permit in the past.
"It's galling to have to pay for a permit." Tuttle said.
Shott, a classified employee, said the rate increase affects her more because, in her opinion, she's underpaid. She would like to see parking become free for classified employees.
"If my salary was going up, I wouldn't mind the increase," she said. "But it's not."
Revenue from the rate increase, about $900,000 a year, will help fund improvement projects on campus and construction of a new Park and Ride lot on West

Campus, said Donna Hultine, director of KU parking.
The last time rates increased was during the fall of 2001, Hultine said. The increase was made so the department wouldn't fall into debt, she said.
Beginning this summer, the parking department will begin work on two projects to improve an existing lot and create an additional 40 parking spaces on campus.
Locating a space for the new Park and Ride lot will also begin as soon as possible. Hultine said.
Lot 206 near Nichols Hall will be reconstructed this summer, Hultine said.
The lot needs to be repaired before fall to accommodate possible overflow from the Park and Ride lot near the Lied Center. Hultine said.
The lot is in poor condition and repair costs are estimated to be $142,500, according to a campuswide pavement evaluation form Professional Engineering Consultants.
"The money will go toward improvement and people will see change," she said. "Overall, we'll have a positive result, but getting there is not pretty."

Plans to tear down the Lindley Annex near Lindley Hall and build a 40-space parking lot this summer are also being developed, Hultine said.

pretty much nonexistent; which makes it clear that China is still developing.
China is a country of extremes, poor and wealthy. In major cities, such as Shanghai and Beijing, the luxuries in some people's living standards are overwhelming: they drive Mercedes or Lexus cars, and apartments are adorned with marble floors and crystal chandeliers. Go to the outskirts of any city, however, and you will find extreme poverty: houses with no electricity or running water and cardboard boxes or pieces of plastic used to patch up holes in the roofs.
Even in the city it's easy to find beggars and people who collect plastic bottles and aluminum cans to make a living. But in recent years a middle class has emerged.
EASTERN CHESSERIE
Modern day technologies are becoming more and more accessible to the average person. More and more homes have computers and the Internet. City transportation systems, such as subways, are being installed. Old buildings are being torn down to build skyscrapers.
With this change the China of 2010 probably will be unrecognizable to the China of today.

Kansas strives to become dominant in-state team
BY ALISSA BAUER
abauer@kansan.com
KANKSAN SPORTWRITER
Senior catcher Jake Kauzlarich and junior outfielder Gus Milner run drills inside Anschutz Sports Pavilion during practice yesterday. The team was preparing for its 7:06 game tonight at Wichita State.
Wichita State's domination of the in-state rivalry with Kansas will be challenged again when the two teams meet tonight at Eck Stadium in Wichita.
Although Wichita State (27-10, 4-2 MVC) leads the series 37-19 overall, the Shockers were on the wrong end of a 13-6 beating a week ago. Kansas (24-14, 3-6 Big 12) continues to attempt to become the stronger in-state team.
"I think they'll definitely come to play," coach Ritch Price said. "I think with the amount of publicity it gets in the state, every game is getting bigger."
Kelly Hutsell/KANSAN
Wichita State may have the advantage in tonight's contest as both teams seem to feel the most comfortable at home. The Shockers are 17-4 this season at Eck Stadium. Kansas is 15-4 at Hoglund Ballpark, where the game one victory occurred.
"I think it is probably the greatest testimony to coach (Gene) Stephenson's career at Wichita State — that they've been able to build a stadium as nice as that in a cold-weather
state before the popularity of baseball really boomed," coach Price said of Eck Stadium. "It's one of the best venues we've ever played."
Since the first match-up, Wichita State swept Missouri Valley opponent Illinois State in a three-game series. The Shockers showed no signs of their plate struggles, outscoring the Redbirds 29-4 in the series.
Kansas enters the game coming off of a 2-1 series defeat to Oklahoma. Although the Jayhawks could only manage one victory, they outscored the Sooners 23-21 in the series.
Solid pitching has been the catalyst of Wichita State's success this season, but the last meeting with Kansas was packed with explosive hitting. The teams are separated by only three batting average points heading into tonight's game, with Kansas at .309 and Wichita State hitting .306.
Freshman second baseman Damon Sublett was the driving force behind the Shockers' offense against the Jayhawks last week. Sublett hit a pair of doubles, a triple and had one RBI. After last weekend, Sublett is hitting .310 with 19 RIB.
Sophomore infielder Derek Schermerhorn went 2-5 and scored once against the Jayhawks in their last meeting. Schermerhorn extended his hitting streak to 30 games against

Most people probably wouldn't be interested in a hobby that takes the body and mind to utmost exhaustion. But Jen Dziuvenis, a first-year law student from Olathe, isn't most people.
Dziuvenis participates in Iroman competitions, an event
"It's a crazy kind of enjoyment, both fun and painful," she said. "There would be no motivation for me to train if it weren't so hard."
with three legs; the first is a 2.4- mile swim; the second is a 112- mile passage traveled by bike; lastly, participants run a marathon, 26.2 miles.
Ironman competitions take anywhere from 10 to 15 hours to complete. The training is rigorous but athletes like Dziuvenis still enjoy it.
The swimming portion of the race takes people about one hour, and is considered the warm-up leg. Dziuensis said the first part was the craziest part because 2,000 people jump into the water at the same time, which means kicking, hitting, and nearly drowning — basically getting pummeled while trying to swim.
"The cycling is hard because you're on the bike for what seems like an endless amount of time, just beating yourself up, basically." Djuvenis said.
Cycling 112 miles takes about seven hours.
The running is the worst part, Dziuvenis said, not because of the distance, but because you're so beat up from cycling.
Dziuvenis said athletes got a bag for each leg of the race, and usually it takes a person eight or nine minutes to change clothing and resume the race. Bags also have food, water and spare bike tires in them.
"You get off the bike and it's like, all right, now all I've got to do is run a marathon," she said.

Coaches should look to Luke
---
KELLIE ROBINETT
krobinett@kansan.com
Mark Mangino is looking for a starting quarterback in all the wrong places.
The Kansas football coach has sophomore Adam Barmann and junior Jason Swanson slated ahead of junior Brian Luke because they've plaved well in spring practices.
That's nice and all, but practice shouldn't be the deciding factor. What the decision should boil down to is game performance.
If you focus on last season's results, it's easy to see that the job should be Luke's to lose.
When he got his opportunity to play last year, the lavhawks plaved their best ball.
He only saw extended action in two games, but he dominated against quality opponents.
Kansas split two games, winning at Missouri and narrowly losing to No. 6 Texas.
When Barmann and Swanson started, Kansas compiled a record of 3-6.
You can't judge everything by the win-loss record, but Luke simply looked better than the other competitors.
Against Texas he came off the bench and com-
preted 14 of 25 passes for 225 yards and a touchdown. He stayed poised while the heavily favored Longhorns came back, and made a clutch completion to junior Charles Gordon that, if not for a questionable offensive pass interference penalty, would have won the game for the Jayhawks.
He followed up that performance with a monster game at Missouri, where he led Kansas to a decisive victory by throwing for 239 yards and two touchdowns.
He deserves credit for that road victory because no other quarterback on the team has won a game away from Memorial Stadium in his career.
Luke also has the best body of any KU quarterback. The coaching staff says he has the strongest arm, and, at 6-foot-5, he's tall enough to look over linemen and see the entire field.
The only real setback for Luke is that he can't scramble, but that's not too significant. Too often you see college quarterbacks give up on plays and try to run. Because Luke can't rely on his feet, he is patient with his receivers.
Swanson can scramble, and if Luke isn't the starter, Swanson should replace him. He is still a wild card, but he looked good in last year's games against Kansas State and Colorado before suffering a season-ending injury.
With Barmann you already know what you're getting. He's a good athlete and can make some decent plays, but he won't do anything spectacular.

NHL talks likely to resume soon
NEW YORK—When NHL labor talks resume, a new plan will be discussed that attempts to blend elements from both sides' vision of how players will be paid.
BY IRA PODELL
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Negotiations will probably resume next week, during which a new, hybrid concept — which addresses the relationship between player costs and league revenues — will be brought to the table, a source close to the negotiations told The Associated Press on condition of anonymity yesterday.
The NHL has maintained that it prefers a link tying player costs to league revenues, while the union has mostly rejected that idea. This new, mixed plan would appear to incorporate elements from both concepts.
It was thought that talks would resume this week, but as of yesterday, there was still difficulty in scheduling a meeting, the source said. Next week's likely bargaining session would come at a busy time for the NHL, which already has a board of governors meeting planned for Wednesday.
The last bargaining session, held April 4 in Toronto, went better than others since the 2004-05 season was canceled in February. NHL chief legal officer Bill Daly said there was now a good understanding across the table of where the sides were and that he was hopeful there would be continued progress.
Last Thursday, commissioner Gary Bettman and union executive director Bob Goodenow had dinner with some general managers and players in Michigan, where the GMs convened for a meeting. Bettman and Goodenow tentatively planned to hold more official talks soon.
On March 17, the NHL made two proposals to the players' association — one containing a link between player costs and league revenues, and another without the relationship.
But the "de-linked" offer had a short shelf life, and the deadline for the union to accept that kind of deal expired last Friday.
It was the second time that type of offer was made to the players' association, and the second time the NHL pulled it off the table.

After an offseason full of awards, the Jayhawk soccer team is back in action with spring exhibition games.
Caroline Smith, junior forward, fends off Erin Weldon, Iowa State senior defender, during a regular season game last fall. The soccer team is playing its spring exhibition season and won its first game 2-0 against Minnesota on April 2 at layhawk Soccer Complex. The next scheduled game is against Purdue on April 23 in Indianapolis.
The women kicked off the spring exhibition season with a 2-0 victory against the Minnesota Gophers Saturday at the Jayhawk Soccer Complex. Scoring the goals for the Jayhawks were freshman Afton Sauer and junior Kimberly Karfonta.
Sauer said it was a bit of a change to be able to play a whole game again instead of just practice.
"It was awesome to start playing a game," Sauer said. "It is so different to step out on the field and play a 90 minute game compared to practicing. I wish we would have done better but it was just fun getting out there and playing as a team again."
Freshman forward Emily Strinden agreed.
"It was really awesome to have come together and get a win after not playing anyone but ourselves for a long time," Strinden said. "We kind of started to get tired of just practicing with ourselves, and everyone was really excited to play a real game."
Junior forward Caroline Smith said it was nice to be able to compete against another team and to rejoin the other players again.
"It's definitely nice to get back on the field and compete against other teams," Smith said. "It's great that we all got to play on the same team because in spring practice we are always split up. The win is always nice but I think it showed us a lot of things to improve on."
Last year's Big 12 champion squad finished 11th in the country in RPI rankings, which was the best finish in school history. To improve on that this season, players took it upon themselves to train for the upcoming season. Sophomore defender Holly Gault said her offseason training started right after the end of last season.
"I was so ready to get back out and start training that I didn't take much time off." Gault said.
Sauer thinks she is in even better shape than she was last season as a result of personal training, and that she has become better at little things such as passing and getting touches.
The team has also been practicing to improve how it plays as a unit.
The Jayhawks lost seven seniors from last season, but hope to improve and advance further into the postseason this year. The team had its most impressive season last year, but was knocked out of the NCAA Tournament in the second round.

"Its definitely nice to get back on the field and compete against other teams."
Caroline Smith Junior forward
"As a team we have most of our defenders returning, however some changing positions," Gault said. "So we have mainly been working on putting people in situations that they haven't been in before so we can gain experience."
Strinden said the team has been practicing hard and has become more close-knit. She said she hopes this will help in the upcoming season.
The Jayhawks still have four more spring exhibition games. The team will next be in action April 23 when it takes on Purdue in Indianapolis. The Jayhawks will play the next day against Indiana in Bloomington, Ind.
The layhawks will play their final two spring exhibition games in Lawrence.
On April 28 they take on the Blue Valley Stars U-15 squad and May 5 against the KFCF U-15 team.

Another setback plaques pitcher
ST.LOUIS — Bill Pulsipher was placed on the 15-day disabled list yesterday with a mild to moderate strained right hamstring, another hurdle for the St. Louis Cardinals' left-hander to clear after a four-year absence from the major leagues.
Pulsipher beat long odds to make the team despite injuring the right hamstring earlier in spring training and breaking his right big toe when it was struck by a line drive.
He's pitched in three games with St. Louis, allowing one run on two hits in 1 2/3 innings.
"It's pretty ridiculous," Pulsipher said. "The good thing is the arm's fine and the head's fine and I'm ready to pitch. It's just that the leg wants to act up right now."
The Cardinals recalled left- hander Carmen Cali from
Triple-A Memphis to fill Pulsipher's roster spot. Pulsipher said his leg was feeling better, but manager Tony La Russa said he didn't even ask him how he felt.
"We know if it comes up again, we can't wait for it to get well," La Russa said. "We can't pitch short, so it's better to back him off, let him get well."
The move was made a day after right-handed reliever Cal Eldred was admitted to a hospital with a relapse of upper respiratory symptoms. Eldred, 37, missed the first two games of the season but pitched twice during the team's weekend series with the Phillies.
The decision didn't prevent Pulsipher from playing catch yesterday before the Cardinals played the Cincinnati Reds.
The move to the DL has been backdated to Monday.

ATHLETICS DEPARTMENT
Football fans discuss points system
Athletics Department officials calm fears, answer season ticket holders' questions
BY RYAN COLIANNI
rcolaianni@kansan.com
KANSAN SPORTSWITER
Lawrence resident Chris Fevurly has been a season ticket holder at Kansas football games for 10 years.
During that time, he has sat with childhood friends. But after the Kansas Athletics Department announced it would implement a new points system for football in the upcoming season, Fevurly became worried that he might not be able to sit with them anymore.

One way season ticket holders accumulate points is by how many years they have had tickets. Feverly's friends bought season tickets as soon as they graduated from college, but he didn't
To discuss his situation and try to find a way to sit with his friends, Fevurly went to the Wagnon Student Athlete Center yesterday. After meeting with department officials, he said he thought he reached a compromise that would involve his friends moving back a few rows so he could sit with them.
start buying tickets until 10 years later, when he returned to the state.
Because his friends have been season ticket holders for more than 30 years, they have many more points than Fevurly.
Despite the potential he still might not be able to sit with his friends, Fevurly said he was not upset about the new system.
"I understand why they are doing it," he said. "I would rather us be more competitive in
the Big 12. I don't mind giving money if it helps us be more competitive."
Department officials met with season ticket holders for nine hours yesterday. The main questions people asked were about verifying their points information and understanding how the system worked, Jim Marchiony, associate athletics director, said.
Some fans have expressed disapproval about the new system because the demand for football tickets is not as high as it is for basketball tickets.
Fevrilly has also had basketball season tickets for nine seasons. The point system for football is the same one used for men's basketball.
Marchchiony said some people asked questions about group
seating yesterday, but not many. He said the day was a tribute to the job the department has been doing to communicate to season ticket holders what is going to happen.
"All the other schools do it, so I am surprised that it has not been implemented sooner," Glogau said.
"We wanted to do this to make sure that we give our ticket holders a chance to meet face-to-face," Marchiony said.
Lee Glogau, Lawrence resident, also went to the center yesterday to better understand the process of selecting his seats and to ensure that his points added up correctly.
He said he received a letter from the Williams Educational Fund and was concerned that his wife, who is a faculty member at the University of Kansas, was not included in his point totals.
Glogau said was not upset
Football season ticket holders must donate a minimum of $100 per year for their points to be activated, and they receive one point for each year they had donated.
with the new points system.
Next season, they will be able to handpick their seats at Memorial Stadium on allotted days determined by their point totals. If they are unable to go to Memorial Stadium on their allotted day, they can tell the department where they would like to sit. If they have enough points, those seats will be reserved for them.

He's had two good games, against Texas A&M two years ago and Toledo last season, but other than that he hasn't had much success. If he were the man for the job it would have showed last year in winnable games against Northwestern, Texas Tech and Nebraska.
The Jayhawks lost those three games and Mangino showed so little confidence in Barmann that he benched him in the second half of several contests.
If you still aren't sold on Luke, consider this: Kansas built a 30-5 lead against Texas Tech last year with Barmann playing under center. The game was in the bag, but Barmann threw three interceptions and the Jayhawks fell to the Red Raiders 31-30.
Kansas built a similar 28-point lead at Missouri, with Luke at quarterback, and the Jayhawks cruised to a 31-14 victory.
Mangino needs to remember those stats and give Luke another opportunity. He's earned it.

Aside from the second inning when the Reds scored on Austin Kearns' RBI single and left the bases loaded, Marquis (1-0) was in control on the mound. He retired the side in order in the first, third, fourth and fifth and struck out six with two walks before tiring in the seventh.
Jim Edmonds and Reggie Sanders hit back-to-back home runs in the sixth inning for the Cardinals, who rebounded after a day off from a pair of blowout losses to the Phillies in which they gave up 23 runs. Edmonds' second homer of the season was the 1,500th hit of his career.
ST. LOUIS — Jason Marquis hit a bases-loaded triple and pitched into the seventh inning, leading the St. Louis Cardinals over the Cincinnati Reds 5-1 last night.
Marquis batted .292 last year, leading NL pitchers in hits (21) and finishing second with nine RBIs. He hit a 3-2 fastball from Aaron Harang just inside the first-base line to clear the bases and give the Cardinals a 5-1 lead in the second.
Cardinals' early offense, too.
Edmonds hit a home run straightaway center with two outs in the sixth, and two pitches later Sanders hit his third over the left-field wall for a 5-1 lead.

Harang (1-1) lasted six innings, giving up five runs on five hits. Four of the hits were for extra bases and two of his three walks came at the start of the second, setting the table for Marquis.
Joe Randa had two hits and Felipe Lopez three for the Reds, who have lost four straight on the road after a 3-0 start at home. Randa, who doubled and scored the Reds' lone run in the second, is batting .417.
Shockers turn tie into late victory
STILWATER, Okla. — Nick McCoola scored on a wild pitch and Wichita State pitchers allowed only four hits as the Shockers defeated Oklahoma State Cowboys 2-1 in a 10-inning game last night.
Jared Simon (2-0) earned the victory for Wichita State, allowing one hit, no runs and striking out in two innings of relief.
The Associated Press
The Shockers play the Jayhawks next. The game is scheduled to begin 7:06 tonight in Wichita.
Ironman CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B
She said the best part was crossing the finishing line. Athletes stay out at the finish line to cheer their peers on. Exhausted athletes are greeted by a spotlight, loud music and shouts of encouragement, she said.
"By the end of the run, you're miserable, feet hurting, legs hurting, feeling sick and starved," she said. "Then you see the finish line and it's the best feeling in the world. The camaraderie between competitors is something special. The first time I crossed the finish line I was addicted."
It takes about a week for her muscles to recover, Dziuvenis said, and anywhere from a month to two months for her joints to. The day after a race she'll wake up at 6 a.m. because her body and mind are still racing and she feels as if she has to sleep every two hours, she said.
She said once she can walk again, the worst part is over.
Dziuvenis trains for the competitions twice a day on weekdays, then on weekends she does a long ride, usually 70-80 miles, on her bike. Not the typical recreational activity for students, but the natural high she gets from finishing these races is enough to endure the pounding she imposes on her body.
"It's all about the challenge," she said. "I'd never ran four-plus miles in my life before I took Ironman up. I did it to prove something to myself. To be able to say, 'hey, you can do that.'"

Runner-up gets media spotlight

PGA
Chris DiMarco had a satellite truck parked outside his house and a long list of television and radio interviews to do, the kind of treatment usually afforded a Masters champion.
DiMarco was only the runner-up.
"I went out and shot 68 around here on Sunday, which is a very good round. And 12 under is usually good enough to win." DiMarco said after his playoff loss. "I just was playing against Tiger Woods."
The guy with the green jacket — Tiger Woods — was on the other side of town in Orlando, Fla., meeting VIPs from Accenture. Rarely does second place draw so much attention.
That's what made this runner-up finish so compelling. That's why the loudest cheers were for
It was almost an afterthought during the final round that DiMarco had been here before — not just in the final group at the Masters, but in a playoff at a major. Seven months ago at Whistling Straits, he missed an 18-foot birdie putt on the final hole of the PGA Championship, then lost in a three-way playoff to Vijay Singh.
DiMarco along the back nine at Augusta National, and even during the closing ceremony, when Woods paid tribute to "one heck of a competitor out there."
He was the model of grit and determination at the Masters.
But that was different.
Justin Leonard should have won the PGA except for a balky putter. DiMarco slipped into contention with a 1-under 71, the only player among the final 11 groups who broke par on a vicious course. The memory of DiMarco from Whistling Straits is that he had a birdie putt on the 18th hole and left it short.
DiMarco shot 41 on the back nine Sunday morning to finish his third round, turning a four-shot lead into a three-shot deficit to a player who had never lost the lead in the final round of a major.
No one gave him a chance.
This was quite a change from last year at Augusta National, when he was tied for the lead with Phil Mickelson going into the last round and shot 76 to quickly take himself out of contention.
It was a two-man race from the start, and DiMarco never backed down. Despite giving up 80 yards at times off the tee, DiMarco was inside Woods for birdie on all but five holes. He was aggressive, fearless. He tried to make birdies on his last two holes and left himself 6 feet for par, then made both those to force a playoff.
"I don't think I was ready to win," DiMarco said. "This year, I was ready to win. I really felt like I could win it. And coming out the way I did, I will be ready to win next year."
Next year? What about the next major?
DiMarco has only won three times in his 10 years on the PGA Tour, none against particularly strong fields. There's a reason for that.
He had at least joined some exclusive company Sunday, even if it's not the kind he wants to keep.
There already is some thought that DiMarco should move to the top of the list as the "best player to have never won a major," but only because his final round is still fresh.
Not since Tom Watson at the 1978 PGA Championship and 1979 Masters has someone lost back-to-back major championships in a playoff.

Milner gains player of the week honor
Kansas outfielder Gus Milner was named co-Big 12 Conference player of the Week yesterday, along with Texas Tech infielder Cameron Blair.
Texas pitcher J. Brent Cox was named Pitcher of the Week.
Milner had an outstanding week last week. In four games he hit three home runs, including two against Wichita State and an inside-the-park home run in Saturday's game against Oklahoma.
For the week, Milner was 6-for-19, which translates to a .316 batting average.
"I think it's one of the best games anyone's had since I've been here," KU coach Ritch Price said after Milner's two-home-run game against Wichita State.
Milner is the third Jayhawk to earn such an award this season. Junior outfielders A.J. Van Slyke and Matt Baty were honored previously.

Illinois State last weekend and leads the starters with a .359 batting average and 34 RBI.
Kansas continues to scare opponents at the plate, as it demonstrated in the outscoring of Oklahoma last weekend. The last time the Jayhawks met the Shockers, their bats were more than enough to capture victory.
Junior outfielder Gus Milner had a career day against Wichita State last week. He went 4-5, belted two home runs and raked in six RBI. Milner still leads the starters hitting .355 with six home runs. Milner also collected four RBI in the Oklahoma series, including a three-run, inside-the-park home run in game two in Norman, Okla.
Senior infielder Andy Scholl had no problem finding his power against the Shockers as well.
"I swung the bat well last week against those guys," Scholl said. "Hopefully I can repeat it, if I'm in the lineup."
Scholl, who is hitting. 268 on the season, went 3-3 and knocked a home run of his own last Wednesday. Scholl drove in four against Wichita State.
On the mound, Kansas' staff pitched last week's game with success.
Seven pitchers threw against the Shockers, combining for 10 strikeouts and five walks. As a staff, the Kansas pitchers have accumulated a 4.15 ERA on the season.
Although Wichita State's pitchers threw only five strikeouts against the Jayhawks in their last meeting, the Shockers have the edge with a 3.34 combined ERA.
"We were fortunate enough to knock those guys around the other night," Scholl said. "It was good for us to get in the pen early. Hits are contagious."
Sophomore left-hander
The plan on the mound will play out much like last week's game. Land will throw the first three innings. Senior right-hander Clint Schambach (2-3, 5.22 ERA) will follow and Tyson Corley (0-0, 1.35 ERA) will pitch after that.
Sean Land (3-2, 5.14 ERA) is slated to start tonight's game for Kansas.
Because of Wichita State's late-night match-up against Oklahoma State, the Shockers have not yet announced a starter for tonight.
"I have great respect for Wichita State," Price said, "but at the same time the University of Kansas is special. The Big 12 is special. Last year there was about 5,000 fans down there and about half the crowd were Jayhawk fans."
Tonight's game in Eck Stadium, which is designed to hold more than 7,500 fans, will start at 7:06 tonight.

Expelled member gives up IFC office
BY ERIC SORRENTINO
esorrentino@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
The Interfraternity Council is looking for a new vice president for the risk management position after
Michael
Pilshaw
resigned last
Friday.
Pilshaw, who was a member of Phi Kappa Theta, cited several reason, including IEC control and biases, for his resignation.
Pilshaw
Pilshaw, Lawrence junior said he could not carry out risk management responsibilities after the IFC expelled his fraternity March 7.
Any decision he made had to be approved through the IFC executive board, and he said he was unable to truly do his job.
"People on the IFC thought it would hold a grudge to other houses if they were to get in trouble." Pilshaw said.
Scott Shorten, IFC president and Stilwell junior, said he wanted Pilshaw to keep the IFC in the loop with any fines or other reprimands he assigned to other fraternities.
He did not think the situation would lead to his resignation.
"Certainly it was a surprise," Shorten said. "Given all the circumstances, I think he did the most honorable thing by stepping down."
Phi Kappa Theta, 1111 W. 11th St., was expelled from the University after having an unregistered navy on Feb. 19.
GAS PRICES
Pilshaw said there were other factors that contributed to his decision.

University buys in bulk, saves a buck
BY ADAM LAND

KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Ten thousand gallons of gas would almost be enough fuel to drive a car the 2,600 miles around the world.
Most people don't buy gas in such a massive quantity but the University of Kansas does.
Two 10,000-gallon tanks are buried in West Campus near the Facilities Operations garage, one for unleaded fuel the other for diesel.
The University fills the unleaded tank every eight to 10 days, said Steve Green, associate director of business operations for the Department of Facilities Operations.
The bill for the last refill was $17,500, an average of $1.75 a gallon.
"We keep cost down by buying our gas from Kansas fuel dealers." Green said.
Gas is bought in bulk so the University doesn't exceed budget, even if gas costs soar, he said.
The University bought 140,000 gallons worth of gas in 2004.
All University vehicles use fuel from the tanks all but KU on Wheels.

Native American students scramble to organize leadership conference
Every year Native American students from schools in the Big 12 Conference attend an American Indian Student Leadership Conference. The conference is held at one of the schools and at the end of the conference, participants choose a new school to hold the conference the next year.
This allows the host school one year to raise money, find rooms, get speakers and scout out a place to hold the conference.
Cornel Peeweardy, associate professor in the department of teaching and leadership and the association's adviser, said he was happy with the progress that the students have made in such a short time.
backed out in September, the University of Kansas' chapter of the First Nations Student Association scrambled to put on this year's conference, to be held today through Saturday.
When the University of Colorado
Since the association decided to hold the conference, its members have worked tirelessly making conference arrangements. Some have sacrificed portions of their winter break
and spring break.
Alex Red Corn, Shawnee senior, spent some of his time over spring break working on organizing the conference. As the conference got closer, Red Corn said he has spent more time preparing.
"It's pretty hectic," he said. "It's starting to cut into my school work, but it's a cool experience."
The conference, which is based on the theme "Retraditionalizing Indigenous Leadership: Student Voices of Fire," will feature keynote speaker James Roan Gray, principal

Faculty boycott hearings on evolution teachings
EDUCATION

KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Hearings on whether the theory of intelligent design should be taught alongside evolution in Kansas classrooms are coming up in May. But the subcommittee in charge of the hearings is having trouble finding supporters of evolution to attend.
Scientists from the University of Kansas have declined invitations to present evidence for evolution. Some are members of the group Kansas Citizens for Science and are boycotting the hearings.
The organization made the decision not to attend the hearings shortly after
see no reason for further discussion. Posny said.
the Kansas Board of Education announced a subcommittee to hold further hearings on the teaching of evolution and intelligent design in classrooms, Phil Baringer, associate professor of physics and astronomy, said.
Members of Kansas Citizens for Science had argued on whether to attend the hearings and consulted national groups, such as the National Center for Science Education, before making their decision. Baringer said.
Baringer said he thought the only thing that could help the situation was for Kansans to be upset by the addition of intelligent design to the state curriculum and vote for a new board in 2006.
"It's just ironic they want to do this after the Legislature wants to pump money into the biosciences industry," he said.
Other faculty are avoiding the hear-

"It is not a foregone conclusion on what set of standards the board will accent," she said.
Hearings held earlier in the year to review the state's science standards were part of a regular process, he said. This second set of hearings are unprecedented and meant to give the board political cover, Baringer said.
"These guys keep wanting to change the rules until they can validate what they want to do," he said.
Twelve scientists submitted papers in response to the report from the science standards committee, and they
Thoughts that the board's decision would not be swayed by further discussion are not necessarily true, Alexa Posny, assistant commissioner to the state department of education, said.
ings for their own personal reasons and not because Citizens for Science asked them not to.
The last thing Hume Feldman, associate professor of physics and astronomy wants to
do is turn the hearings into an intelligent design debate, and said he would not attend. There is no discussion involved in these hearings and they are designed to convince people that intelligent design is science, he said.
"The majority of people thinking the same thing does not make it science. Science is not a democracy," Feldman said.
Approached several weeks ago by the subcommittee, Ed Wiley, professor of ecology and evolutionary biology, declined appearing at the hearings. He said he was sure the board would not be swayed by his arguments.
"I think it's clear that this is simply meant to promote intelligent design," he said.
Wiley submitted eight pages of suggestions to the board on the teaching of evolution. The suggestions were
DEFINING IDEOLOGIES
This past year, the Kansas Board of Education reviewed the state science standards. Several board members have argued that other theories of origin should be given equal time in science classrooms with the theory of evolution. Opponents say that the other theories presented cannot be tested by scientific method and should not be taught alongside evolution.
Evolution: any process of change over time. In the context of life science, evolution is a change in the traits of living organisms over generations, including the emergence of new species. Since the development of modern genetics in the 1940s, evolution has been defined more specifically as a change in the frequency of alleles in a population from one generation to the next.
Intelligent Design: a set of arguments which assert that empirical evidence supports the conclusion that life on Earth was deliberately designed by one or more intelligent agents.
Creationism the belief that God created the world and all life within it; creationism usually further entails the belief that this occurred as literally described in the book of Genesis (for Jews and Christians) or as literally described in the Quran (for Muslims.)

not adopted and he said there was no reason to offer further input.
Another reason Wiley said he refuses to attend the hearings was because of his opinion that intelligent design was not a scientific question. Instead, Wiley said he thought it was a religious and political question.

INTERNET SECURITY
LexisNexis admits past breach
BY ERICA WERNER THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — A LexisNexis executive said yesterday there may have been an earlier breach of consumers' personal data that was never reported to the public.
The disclosure at a Senate hearing came a day after London-based Reed Elsevier, which owns LexisNexis, revealed that criminals may have breached computer files containing the personal information of 310,000 people since January 2003.
That in itself was a tenfold increase over the 32,000 people the company said in March were put at risk.
The company said the fraud involved the improper use of IDs and passwords.
"I believe there may have been a security breach in LexisNexis prior to 2003 that involved personal data and we did not make notice." Kurt Sanford, LexisNexis' president and chief executive for U.S. corporate and federal markets, said in response to questioning at a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing.
spokesman Sean C. McCabe said later that Sanford was referring to more than one past breach, but he could provide no information about how many there were, when they took place or how serious they were.
Sanford gave no details. LexisNexis
The string of recent data breaches has drawn national attention to the loosely regulated companies that collect information on consumers — from Social Security numbers to medical records. The companies then sell the information to insurance companies, prospective employers, law enforcement agencies and others.

Architecture dean says demolition of crumbling studio is long overdue
BY NATE KARLIN
nklarin@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
The rumors that have been floating around the architecture department for years will come true by next fall. This summer Design and Construction Management plans to demolish the Lindley Annex, a small one-story building south of Lindley Hall at Naismith Drive and Crescent Road.
"I was told when I came to KU that it was going to be gone in two semesters," Pat Bruin, St. Louis sophomore said.
The news of the annex's demolition by next fall surprised Bruin because studios in the annex were available online for next semester. he said.
The Lindley Annex tenants will likely be moved to studio space in Snow and Marvin Halls. KU officials are still working on the final accommodations.
He said the management had enough funding to demolish the building a year ago, but the University reduced its Repair and Rehabilitation funding by 40 percent, said Jim Modig, director of Design and Construction Management.
Danny Tennyson, Columbia, Mo.
sophomore said he heard the annex was supposed to be demolished by the current semester.
"It's a nice place to work and you don't have to worry about its upkeep," he said.
Despite Tennison's dislike for the building, he said it would be missed.
But it will be nice to move into a studio with air conditioning and heating, he said. The annex uses old-fashioned heaters with pilot lights.
For architectural officials, the confirmation of the annex's demolition has been at least 10 years overdue, said John Gaunt, dean of architecture.
"It's a good move," he said. "It's just been a clear recognition of a building that has served its time."
Adding more parking spaces to the lot is one possibility when the annex is razed, said Donna Hultine, parking director.
"There's something about the architectural culture, one learns to love such things or at least appreciate it," Gaunt said.
Tennyson said more parking, in place of the building, would be good as long as the spots accommodated architecture students.
Lindley Annex was a mess hall relocated in 1946 from Coffeyville to accommodate the large number of students who arrived after World War II. Modig said. The former mess hall was supposed to be a temporary
building, but has lasted for more than 50 years.
Gaunt said the price of complete renovations would have been impractical.
Gaunt said there had been jokes about the annex over the years, but at the same time students and
administrators had learned to appreciate it. he said.

Pilshaw said even though his position on the IFC was not the same after the incident, he understood why the IFC expelled the 35-member fraternity.
The board did not, however, spend enough time considering Phi Kappa Theta's appeals, he said.
"I find it absurd to think that any chapter would be dealt with differently for any reasons," he said.
He said the executive board spent almost two hours making the decision when the fraternity appealed.

chief of the Osage Nation. Gray, the youngest chief in Osage history, is co-publisher of the Native American Times, the largest independent Native-American newspaper.
Red Corn said Gray would speak to students about what he expects to see from them as future Native-American leaders. He will also teach them about working with government for tribal sovereignty, he said.
Other workshops include topics such as violence and abuse against indigenous women and Native-American mascots in schools. Museum tours of the
Native-American collection in Spooner Hall will also take place.
One of the major issues that the association had to deal with was raising the money needed to put on the event.
As the association's treasurer, it was up to Red Corn to find the $18,000 to $20,000 needed for the conference and the pow-wow, held at the end of the conference. The association started off the year with about $250.
He and his brother, Raymond Red Corn, Shawnee freshman, spent time writing letters and submitting proposals to different tribes to raise money. Alex Red Corn said he went in front of the Osage Tribal Council to solicit donations. Student Senate also voted to give the association
$7,350.
Along with dealing with a shortage of funds,the organization had to deal with a shortage of manpower.
With only about 10 active members, volunteers were needed to help the association prepare for the event.
Students from the University and other organizations such as Black Student Union, Asian Student Union and the Hispanic American Leadership Organization have volunteered.
Students from Haskell Indian Nations University were also invited to attend the conference.

TOPEKA — Kansas government will soon be a little more open under a new law making it clear that public employee contracts and agreements are subject to public scrutiny.
The changes take effect July. 1. The Lawrence Journal-World's request in 2003 to the University of Kansas to fully disclose all compensation paid to athletic director Lew Perkins, including money that came from nonpublic sources inspired the changes.
Current law requires disclosure of records of names, positions, salaries and lengths of service of public employees. The Associated Press
Woman won't sue over finger in food
NATION
Pedaling philanthropists
LAS VEGAS — A woman who claimed she scooped up a human finger in her chili at a Wendy's restaurant has decided not to sue the fast-food chain, her lawyer said yesterday.
Anna Ayala is dropping her claim because the police investigations, DNA tests, a search of her home and intense publicity have "been very difficult for her emotionally," attorney Jeffrey Janoff said.
He would not say if the decision was prompted by a report a woman in Nevada had lost her finger a month earlier in a leopard attack, and that it might be related to Ayala's claim.

Connections, internships vital in finding employment
"Success is not the result of spontaneous combustion, you must set yourself on fire." — Miles Davis.

daint opportunities, both at the University of Kansas and elsewhere, there is no excuse for a student to sit back, relax and place faith only in their diploma.
Some students may be under the false impression that some sort of degree guarantees them a job. This is not the case. A diploma is simply a piece of paper stating that a student passed tests, wrote good papers and attended class. While a college education is, in most cases, a necessity for success, other factors such as internships, recommendation letters, solid resumés and cover letters weigh in when applying for that dream job.
There are so many factors that go into the 'total package,' stellar grades, involvement in the cc nunity, experience, seminars and extracurricular activities are just a few examples of what constitutes an impressive resume.
Obviously, it is impossible for one to achieve everything. But look at it this way: would you rather hire someone who graduated school with a 4.0 grade point average and no experience, or an individual with a 3.0 cumulative GPA and experience to show knowledge in the classroom and bevond?
Every department has an undergraduate coordinator who is happy to lead students in the right direction towards becoming a well-rounded individual. The Burge Union houses the University Career Center, with career counselors and information on internships, jobs and how to put a resume together.
I checked out UCC with the help of Wendy Shoemaker, a career services counselor. She showed me rows and rows of internship listings, from local to international.
"Internships are a popular way for companies to recruit college students," Shoemaker said. "They are great for the student as well, because not only do they help you crystallize what you want to
do, but you also have the opportunity to network. Another perk that may be more subtle is that through internships, you may find out about other careers you never knew existed that interest you."
According to Shoemaker, UCC is divided up into two sections: Career Counseling.
which deals with career assessments and the Employment Services, which offers help with cover letters, resumés and internship hunting.
What about freshmen, undecided majors, or those that are just unsure of their career path? Shoemaker has advice: "First, learn how to trust yourself and know what your skills, strengths and interests are. Secondly, do research about your career and know that you can never ask too many questions. Lastly, build your support network by identifying the supportive people who can help you recognize what you are good at."
Although everyone defines success differently, self-motivation is key in every situation. People who lead exciting and successful lives didn't get there by accident; they pushed themselves and others to reach their goals. Even if a student thinks her ambitions are so grandiose that they seem impossible to achieve, believing in and continually challenging oneself will not only aid in the achievement of goals, it will also build character and encourage growth as a person.
College is about socializing and enjoying time as a carefree young adult, but it is also about grabbing life by the horns while young and able. This is a time in life when with countless options and opportunities. This is the time to make mistakes, learn from them, and be smarter because of the chances you took. Taking this "go-get-em" attitude encourages students to become well-rounded, live without regrets, and have experiences that could change an outlook and give new insight.
Mayor's impeachment robs Mexico of justice, democracy
With such a plethora of advice and resources, students have plenty of opportunities to gain needed experience they need, learn about what truly interests them and take on the world.

"Don't worry, Charlie, you'll find a Golden Ticket." —Grandpa Joe, "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory"
STEPHEN SHUPE
sshupe@kansan.com
As a marketing ploy for Tim Burton's forthcoming remake of "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory," Warner Bros. has announced a contest taken from the pages of Roald Dahl's timeless
children's novel. A search for five Golden Tickets
will commence next month, with prizes including
a European vacation and a check for $10,000.
- Prather is an Omaha, Neb., junior in English.
I don't know about you, but I'll be eating a lot of Wonka Bars this summer.
Of course, if the contest plays out in the same way it does in Dahl's tale, I'm far too old to win. In the novel, pre-adolescents find all of the Golden Tickets. Four of them are spoiled brats:
Odds are the first four kids will be Americans; obese, wealthy, bad-mannered, addict-ad brats. The fifth winner will
Augustus Gloop, a gluttonous German boy; Veruca Salt, a rich little nag; Violet Beauregarde, the world record-holder for chewing a single piece of gum; and Mike Teevee, a television addict. The only child of virtue is Charlie Bucket, an extremely poor, hardworking lad.
most likely come from a country populated by a great many more poor children. From, let's say, Mexico. Thanks to the recent action taken by Mexican president Vicente Fox and his right-wing National Action Party, the prospect of an impoverished Mexican child finding a Golden Ticket seems all the more likely.
A week ago today, the federal Congress in Mexico voted to impeach Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, the mayor of Mexico City. He's charged with ignoring a judge's order to discontinue the construction on private land of an access road to a hospital. It's a four-year-old infraction, minor and not uncommon. Lopez Obrador faces up to six years in prison and expulsion from the country's upcoming presidential race.
The mayor and his leftist Institutional Revolution Party had gained momentum in the campaign, leading by 10 points among presumed
candidates in recent opinion polls. This is President Fox's final term. Lopez Obrador's populist record includes handling out cash to poor people, building playgrounds and schools, and speaking out against free-trade policies that have battered low-wage workers in recent years. He's called attempt to push him aside a
the ruling party's attempt to push him aside
"witch hunt."
Apparently freedom and self-determination have their limits especially when they hinder the search for the Golden Ticket.
On Thursday, more than 100,000 of his supporters came out to protest the impeachment. They knew what Mexico would look like under a President Lopez Obrador, just as President Fox and his friends in the international business community surely knew. For pure markets to continue the ceaseless flow of money to the top, working conditions in Mexico and other Latin-American
countries must remain stagnant.
Before his election in July 2000, Fox served as an executive for the Coca-Cola Company. Once in office, he announced the formation of the Plan Puebla Panama, a multi-billion dollar development deal. The plan clears the way for the erosion of labor rights and massive private investment in infrastructure
projects. Fox wants to turn a wide swathe of Latin America, running south from Mexico City all the way down to seven republics in Central America, into a corporate playground. This land is abundant with water and oil reserves with the potential to significantly raise the living standards of Mexicans. Instead, the spoils will go to multinationals.
As president, Lopez Obrador would put an end to this outrage. Nearly 80 percent of Mexicans want to see him run. But unlike the recent support of democratic reforms in the Ukraine and Lebanon, the leaders of Mexico's neighbor to the north remain silent. Apparently freedom and self-determination have their limits, especially when they hinder the search for the Golden Ticket.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Don't continue pattern of abuse and neglect of life to further comparatively minor human endeavors
I would like to clarify a point in my previous letter regarding the Canadian Harp seal hunt.
It is true Newfoundlanders are poor and the seal hunt supplements their income. Ms. Dinges is right — you should be educated in your decision whether to boycott Canadian seafood.
Information on Newfoundland can be found online and hunt information can be found at the Humane Society of the United States Web site.
However, even if something is seen as economically helpful, it is important to remember that this does not alleviate the fact that it can be very cruel in practice.
It seems our world is willing to give up on the idea of humane treatment of its inhabitants — both animal and human — in the name of expediency.
Examples abound: The treatment of farm animals in this country, the torture of prisoners overseas. We lose much of ourselves by sinking to the lowest treatment of living creatures and people because it is the easy fix.
We should ask ourselves at what price do we use and torture and kill before we ultimately destroy that which we want to save. No one knows the long term effects of killing a million seals in three years.
I understand something of poverty but cruelty is not necessarily the way to fix it. Long-term solutions will never be reached when short-term expedient ones are settled for. I cannot believe cruelty is the answer to the problems in our world. I hope I am right.

Regulators criticize fake news
MEDIA
BY ELIZABETH WOLFE
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Those rules "are grounded in the principle that listeners and viewers are entitled to know who seeks to persuade them" with TV programming, the Federal Communications Commission said in a public notice to broadcast licensees and cable operators.
WASHINGTON — Responding to criticism over government videos being packaged as TV news reports, federal regulators reminded broadcasters yesterday of rules requiring them to identify the source of such material.
Tens of thousands of people have asked the FCC to investigate the failure of broadcasters to disclose the source of the government videos, said Commissioner Michael Copps, adding that his agency should investigate each case.
The White House Office of National Drug Control Policy was criticized last year for a series of videos in which a narrator, sometimes identified as "Karen Ryan," said she was "reporting" on the office's activities.
The FCC is soliciting comments on the decades-old sponsorship identification rules and may seek to clarify them further.
Separately, the Health and Human Services Department's Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services produced video news releases, also narrated by "Karen Ryan," touting changes to Medicare.
The tapes were offered to local television stations for news programs. Some stations aired the videos without identifying their government origins.
Directly addressing such videos, the FCC said broadcast licensees and cable operators "generally must clearly disclose" to viewers the "nature, source and sponsorship of the material."
Violating the rules could result in a $10,000 fine, one year imprisonment or both.
"There been a growing trend of broadcasters just putting on these so-called video news releases wholesale, and putting them on the air without letting the public know it may be from a government agency or it may be from a big corporation," said FCC Commissioner Jonathan Adelstein. "So the public thinks it looks like a news story, and they don't realize that in fact somebody that may have an agenda is trying to influence their thought."

KANSAN SPORTWRITER
WICHITA — Behind solid pitching and timely hitting, Wichita State rebounded from last week's loss to Kansas with a 5-1 victory against the Jayhawks last night.
The Shockers got off to a quick start against sophomore starting pitcher Sean Land. In the bottom of the first, sophomore first baseman Derek Schermerhorn singled home senior left fielder Phil Napolitan for a 1-0 lead.
The hit extended Schermerhorn's hitting streak to 32 games, which is second all-
time at Wichita State.
Two batters later, senior catcher Joe Muich singled to right to score Schermerhorn and make it 2-0.
Kansas cut the deficit in half in the second when senior first baseman Andy Scholl homered over the right-field fence. It was Scholl's third home run of the season.
Senior Clint Schambach relieved Land in the fourth inning and quickly ran into trouble.
After a throwing error on senior catcher Sean Richardson, the Shockers had a runner at third with two out. Schambach quelled the threat by getting freshman pinch hitter Tyler Hill
to DOD out to second.
Wichita State eventually added a run in the sixth inning and made it a 3-1 game.
After freshman Tyson Corley came in to pitch for the Jayhawks, Muich led off the inning with a line drive that junior shortstop Ritchie Price couldn't handle and moved to second on a stolen base.
With two outs, freshman right fielder Matt Brown doubled past Scholl and up the right-field line, scoring Muich.
The Jayhawks threatened in the eighth inning. With one out, junior center fielder Matt Baty was hit by a pitch.

Albom critics should ease up
Sports columnist Mitch Albom is being crucified by the journalism world. It's time to cut him some slack.
Albom, one of the best-known sports columnists in the country, could be on the brink of being fired or placed on unpaid suspension.
His mistake was hardly an innocent one. He said that former Michigan State players attended their alma mater's Final Four game when they did not. The false "fact" appeared in the opening sentence of his column on April 3, and he spent the next two paragraphs explaining, in detail, each player's travel plans.
("Jason) Richardson, who earns millions, flew by private plane," he wrote. "(Mateen) Cleaves, who's on his fourth team in five years, bought a ticket and flew commercial."
The players had told him that they planned to fly to St. Louis, but they later canceled because of scheduling conflicts.
Albom, a nationally syndicated writer, probably filed his story the day before the game so other papers could run it through their own editing processes.
With that in mind, he should have re-worded the column to indicate that the players said they intended to be at the game: "Richardson, who earns millions, planned to fly by private plane. Cleaves ... said he would buy a ticket and fly commercial."
But he didn't. He knows he was wrong. And the failures didn't stop there. The column made it past the editors at his home paper, The Detroit Free Press, and to the subscribing papers.

'Hawks show up ranked Tigers
Pitching helps lead to upset in Columbia

KANSAN SPORTWRITER
The Jayhawks were led by a three-run home run from junior infielder Nettie Fierros. Fierros said the shot came off the first pitch of the at-bat and was right down the middle.
The Kansas softball team upset No.18 Missouri last night in Columbia, Mo., notching its second Big 12 Conference victory and winning the softball Border Showdown. 5-3.
Kansas improved to 18-16 overall and 2-5 in the Big 12. The team suffered a tough stretch mid-season, losing six in a row, but has won three of its last four. Kansas coach Tracy Bunge said her team had turned a corner.
"I'm really proud of this group. After the Texas A&M series, the team was real upset," she said. "Now they have a renewed sense of energy and determination to
not let anything happen."
Elle Pottorf, freshman catcher, played for the first time since being injured in a collision against Texas A&M on April 3.
Ashley Goodrich, junior outfielder, filled in at catcher during Pottertorf's injury but returned to the outfield last night. The pitching staff played well yesterday, holding a nationally ranked opponent to only three runs, one of which was unearned. Serena Settlemier, junior pitcher, pitched three innings and earned the victory. Christina Ross, freshman pitcher, closed the game for the Ivanhaws and picked up the save
"She is solid, and found a way to get on base and get an RBI," Bunge said of Pottoff.
"Christina Ross did a, great job coming in relief," Bunge said. Ross threw four innings allowing one earned run.
The team will head to Springfield, Mo., today to face Southwest Missouri State at 3

p. m. The Bears were scheduled to play host to the Jayhawks earlier this year, but the game was postponed because of rain. SMS made a trip to Lawrence earlier this season during the Holiday Inn Classic. The Jayhawks swept the series, defeating the Bears 7-1 and 6-5.
Coach Bunge said she was proud of her players for staying focused and coming off their losing skid. The road gets tougher for the Jayhawks after the SMS game with three conference games against two elite teams in the Big 12, Baylor and Nebraska. The Jayhawks will have home field advantage this weekend in Arrocha Ballpark, when they host the No. 8 Bears.

Kansas finds itself in doubles trouble
BY RAHUL SHARMA

KANSAN SPORTSWRIETER
A lack of mental preparation and the inability to prevail in doubles play doomed the Kansas tennis team all afternoon, coaches said, as Kansas lost 4-5 against Kansas State yesterday at the Robinson Courts.
The Jayhawks (4-14, 3-5 Big 12 Conference) fell behind at the start of the match, failing to convert in doubles.
In fact, the Wildcats won 24 of 28 games in doubles, easily earning the doubles point.
With the overall match tied at 3-3, Kansas State junior Jessica Simosa defeated Kansas sophomore Brittany Brown, 6-0, 5-7, 6-1, giving the Wildcats their sec
ond straight conference victory.
"We finally realized how important the doubles point is." Kansas coach Amy Hall-Holt said. "It could have made the biggest difference in our match today."
Kansas assistant Frank Polito said the team would focus on doubles in practice tomorrow.

Chiefs plan for 2005 season prepare for tough match-ups
FOOTBALL
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Kansas City will open the regular season Sept. 11 at home against the New York Jets before going on the road for back-to-back, nationally televised night games, the NFL announced yesterday.
Also on Kansas City's schedule are home games against both of last season's Super Bowl teams, the New England Patriots and Philadelphia Eagles. The Chiefs will play seven games against five teams that made the playoffs in 2004.
Of the three night games the Chiefs will play, one is a Monday Night Football match-up with Denver on Sept. 26. The other two are Sunday contests, the first at Oakland on Sept. 18, the other Nov. 20 at Houston.
The Chiefs end the regular season with a Jan. 1 game against Cincinnati. It will be the first time Kansas City has played on New Year's Day since beating Buffalo 31-7 in the 1966 AFL championship game en route to a berth in Super Bowl I.

UNC guard surprises no one will declare for NBA draft
North Carolina found out about the first of its four underclassmen who could leave school early.
Rashad McCants, the second-leading scorer for the national champion Tar Heels, said yester day that he would apply for the NBA draft and skip his senior season.
Coach Roy Williams said McCants had his "complete support" in making a move the two began discussing in January.
North Carolina fans are still waiting for the decisions of juniors Sean May, the Most Outstanding Player of the NCAA tournament, and Raymond Felton and freshman Marvin Williams.
Three other players said yesterday they had applied for the draft.
Florida guards Anthony Roberson and Matt Walsh will apply for the draft but will not hire agents, meaning they could return to the Gators for another season.
Indiana guard Bracey Wright, like McCants, said he would hire an agent.
Other prominent underclassmen who have declared for the draft include national player of the year Andrew Bogut of Utah, Charlie Villanueva of Connecticut, Ike Diogu of Arizona State, Kelenna Azubuke of Kentucky, Nate Robinson of Washington and Carl Krauser and Chris Taft of Pittsburgh.
Players must apply for the draft by May 14. If they don't sign with an agent, they can withdraw their name by June 21, one week before the draft is held.

"We're going to be up there playing every day." Docking said. "After our performance in North Carolina, we can really use this time to practice and get our games together."
The Jahawks, ranked No. 34 in the nation by Golfweek, will try to build on their fifth place finish at the conference championship last April at Prairie Dunes. A strong performance by the Jayhawks will guarantee them a spot in the NCAA Regionsals.
Senior Kevin Ward is taking a unique approach to preparing for the championship. He is going to play a variety of area golf courses to get a feel for playing different places.
"I'm going to try to change it up a bit," he said. "I'm going to get around to as many courses that will let me on so I can be better prepared to play a course that I haven't seen vet."
Yesterday, Ward played at Hallbrook Country Club in Leawood. He called it one of his favorite courses. Ward will also be playing golf at Wolf Creek Golf Club in Kansas City, Kan., and at Hillcrest Country Club in Kansas City, Mo.
In addition to playing those different courses, he will also be playing the course at Alvamar. Ward is also waiting for the re-opening of the new Alvamar Golf Club, which is expected to occur sometime next week.

KANSAN SWITTERWRITE
The Kansas University Endowment Association received a hefty gift this week as they picked up the north Lawrence property called Rim Rock Farm.
Donated by former Kansas track coach Bob Timmons, the farm is used by the Kansas cross country
team, college division championships and for high school meets
"We're extremely excited about it," Kansas cross country coach Stanley Redwine said. "Coach Timmons has always been faithful to the University and he really cares about the team."
Bob and Pat Timmons had owned Rim Rock Farm, which is located in southeast Jefferson County, since 1974. What was once a spruiting woodland has turned into home for cross country runners nationwide. Timmons bought the land while leading the University of Kansas
The farm boasts bridges, tunnels and metallic silhouettes of former KU runners, such as the Jim Ryun skyline bend and the Glenn Cunningham finish. The property is worth more than $500,000. Timmons said that someday, he hoped Rim Rock Farm would host the World Cross Country Championships.

Senior Jeremy Mims placed 59th at the Bim Timmons Invitational last fall. Mims said the tough Rim Rock
Farm course helped the team better prepare for races. He was glad future Kansas teams would continue to practice on the course.
"Rim Rock has always been our place. It's nice to know it will always be our home field." Mims said.
Timmons, with the help of new track members, has maintained the farm for the past 30 years and turned it into one of the best cross country courses in the country.
"It's been a labor of love. I look at this as a work in progress," he said.

Seattle manager gets 1,000th victory at KC
"I'd be dead," the Seattle manager said.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — If the first 999 had been this harrowing, Mike Hargrove might never have made it to 1,000.
With two out and runners at first and second, a shaky Eddie Guardado struck out Angel Berroa on a 3-2 pitch yesterday, preserving a 2-1 victory over Kansas City and giving Hargrove his 1,000th victory as a major league manager.
Ichiro Suzuki, who set the major league season record last year with 262 hits, was 0-for-4 and failed to hit safely for the first time in 20 games since Sept. 19 against Oakland. He reached in his first at bat on a throwing error by third baseman Tony Graffanino. Suzuki's .240 career average in Kansas City is his lowest in any major league park.

Cardinals blow bases loaded, are defeated
ST. LOUIS — Choosing to face Albert Pujols with the bases loaded was a no-brainer for Danny Graves.
Nursing a one-run lead with runners on second and third and one out in the bottom of the ninth inning, Cincinnati Reds manager Dave Miley had his closer walk Larry Walker intentionally to load the bases. The move worked out perfectly when the St. Louis Cardinals' most dangerous hitter grounded into a double play, ending the game."The Reds had a 6-5 victory yesterday.
Matt Belisle (1-1), got his second career victory and first since 2003. He pitched five strong innings in his first major league start.
Jim Edmonds homered for the second straight day, and Reggie Sanders had a three-run homer for the NL champion Cardinals, who were 2-3 on their first homestand and are 3-4 overall. Last year, St. Louis started slowly but led the major leagues with 105 victories.
"We're fine, it's just one of those things," Sanders said. "We're not stressing at all."

Out of all the papers that subscribe to Alom's columns, the first to catch it was the Duluth News Tribune in Minnesota.
Copy editor Nikki Overfelt, a KU graduate, read the story and changed the wording.
In the journalism school, we're all proud of Overfelt. She did her job.
Other editors did not, and Albom did not.
Too often, quality reporters can become untouchable to editors.
Then the reporters get lazy.
Then the reporters get lazy. Jayson Blair got lazy when he plagiarized and invented sources.
Albom got lazy, but his transgressions are not in the same league as Blair's.
Albom conducted interviews and accurately reported what the sources told him. He just used the wrong tense.
Bob Steele, a writer for the Poynter Institute, a journalism think tank, wrote that Albom committed an "ethical sin" and that his column was deceptive.
"Sin" is a strong word; "assumption" is more accurate. Professional writers prewrite to meet deadlines, but it never should have left the paper until all the facts were checked.
The Free Press is investigating the errors.
Albom's work will not run during the investigation, and his punishment should end there.
Once the paper finds that it was the failure of several people all the way up the paper's chain of command — it should forgive Albom, and so should his readers.

Fundraisers bring team closer together
Crew team spends time raising money, making friends
BY KRISTEN JARBOE
jkjarboe@ansan.com
KANSKAN SPORTWRITER
Wescoe Beach welcomed more than student senate campaigners last week. Passers-by found the KU crew team accompanied by the rowing machines it used for training.
The event was a cross between a promotion and a fundraiser for the team and was set up from 8 a.m. until 6 p.m. The machines posed a challenge for students. One challenge was who could go the fastest for 500 meters. The winner was rewarded with a free T-shirt.
Last Saturday, crew was also set up on Ninth and Massachusetts streets to raise money and promote the club.
"We do a ton of fundraising," rower Loral O'Hara, Sugar Land, Texas, senior, said. "The majority of our funding is self-raised."
Extracurricular activities and travel have created a close-knit group.
Each member has to pay an up-front cost of $120 per semester. Costs include facilities, travel expenses, or maintenance and a suit — which is about $75. Crew also has to purchase its boats, which cost around $18,000 each.
Additional fundraisers must exist for such big expenses. The team also does an Erg-a-Thon in the spring, where team members row a certain distance to earn money. This year, the team doubled its profits compared to previous years.
CREW SCHEDULE
Crew members also participated in a fundraiser called Renta-Rower. The KU faculty received e-mails from the team that asked if they need odd jobs completed, such as mowing lawns. Each member must complete eight

hours of manual labor.
"It's a great way to get to know everyone," rower Stephanie Patton, Bellevue, Neb, senior, said. "It's also a good way for the novice rowers to meet the older rowers. Fundraising is really important for us. It's a huge aspect of being on the team." Patton is also team captain.
Crew also cleans Allen Fieldhouse after basketball games, sells Little Caesar's pizzas, and goes door-to-door to collect money. The team bonds through fundraising activities.
The team practices all year. The varsity team practices from 5:30 to 7 a.m. at least four times a week. In the winter, the team has to practice inside on rowing machines four times a week, from 6 to 7 a.m. The novice team practices from 4 to
6 p.m., five days a week.
She said she wanted to do cross country at Kansas because she did it in high school, but she decided to try crew first. As a freshman she made the semifinals in the national club championship in Philadelphia.
O'Hara, the president of the club's executive board, started out as a freshman.
Novice rower John Devins, Fairway junior and University Daily Kansan sportswriter, has enjoyed his experience. He started in the fall.
"It was a great experience," she said. "I was done with running and stuck on rowing at that point."
New challenges keep her coming back, she said. Now that she's president, she's involved with that challenge.
Joel Harvester, Newton junior, said he liked the transition from his high school sports of cross country and track to rowing.

"Rowing capitalizes on skills from other sports that you can bring," he said. "This sport shows you don't have to be the best, but you can be a part of the best. It combines good athletes, all working as hard as you are. You have to keep your end of the bargain in the boat, working through the pain and never giving up."

SPORTS
Round
continued from page 1E
Following a pop out by Price, junior left fielder A.J. Van Slyke reached second on a throwing error by senior shortstop Nick McCoola.
Junior right fielder Gus Milner then coaxed a walk from sophomore pitcher Noah Booth, loading the bases for Richardson.
The senior catcher fouled out to first, ending the inning with no damage done.
Kansas could not muster a rally the rest of the night.
Wichita State added two more runs on Brown's first career home run, and the Shockers won. 5-1.
Junior pitcher Mike Pelfrey earned the win for the Shockers.
He also struck out eight on his way to his sixth victory of the season.
He allowed only one run on three hits in five innings of work.
Land took the loss, and his record dropped to 5-3. He lasted three innings and allowed two runs on five hits while striking out two.
"I wasn't happy with the way I put us in an early hole. I didn't give us a chance to win the game."
Sean Land Sophomore pitcher
Kansas' record fell to 24-15 while Wichita State improved to 29-10.
"I wasn't happy with the way I put us in an early hole," Land said. "I didn't give us a chance to win the game."
Kansas coach Ritch Price, however, said he was pleased with the way Land responded after allowing two first-inning runs.
"I think he's starting to get his confidence and his feel for pitching back again," Price said.
"We made the change in the pitching plan so that he could have find himself and have success. So far, it's worked pretty well."
Scholl said he was glad for the opportunity to face Pelfrey, who is considered one of the top pitchers in the country.
"It was good for us as a team to face someone who throws hard like he does," Scholl said. "This game will help us this weekend when we play a tough team in Bavlor."
Price said the Jayhawks, overall, were ready for the Baylor series.
"We need to win a series. If we pitch well and give our team an opportunity to win, I like our chances," he said.
Wichita State will travel to Northern Iowa for a threegame Missouri Valley Conference series that starts Friday night.
The Jayhawks and Shockers will renew the rivalry next Wednesday at Hoglund Ballpark.

Doubles
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B
"We will go over doubles some more and keep going over it until we get it right," he said.
The Jayhawks have lost five straight doubles points, contributing to their five straight losses.
The last time Kansas earned the doubles point, it knocked off Oklahoma State, 4-3, on March 13.
In singles, Kansas tallied three victories.
Kansas freshman Lauren
Hommell blew past Kansas
State freshman Tereza
Prochakzova, 6-2, 6-1.
The match lasted less than an hour.
"I just played really well today," Hommell said. "I'm getting more comfortable with coming into the net."
Prior to yesterday's singles
victory. Hommell posted a 5-14 record in the spring.
"I just had to keep my focus," she said. "I just played a lot smarter."
Kansas freshman Stephanie Smith, who leads the team with 12 victories on the season, ousted Kansas State freshman Fernanda Da Valle, 2-6, 6-2, 6-3.
"I started off a little slower than I would have liked to," Smith said. "I just got into my game and just started to compete hard."
Also, Kansas sophomore Ashley Filberth swept Kansas state senior Judith Diaz, 6-2, 7-5.
Kansas State senior Maria Rosenberg downed Kansas freshman Elizaveta Avdeeva, 7-5, 6-4. Avdeeva, who led 4-1 in the first set, lost her serve on multiple service games as Rosenberg earned her 21st victory of the season.
Rosenberg is one victory shy of breaking the school's all-time career wins record of 77.
Kansas Junior Christine Skoda fell in straight sets to Kansas State freshman Tamar Kvaratskhelia, 0-6, 6-7 (4).
With the victory, Kansas State improved to 8-7 on the season and 3-4 in the Big 12.
Despite the loss, the Jayhawks are making strides, Hall-Holt said.
"We are just short of the mental game," Hall-Holt said. "If you look at tennis, its pretty much 70 percent mental and 30 percent talent."
The Wildcats, who were 2-16 against the Jayhawks in Lawrence, won for just the sixth time in 53 attempts.
Next up for Kansas is a home match against Colorado on Saturday. Play will begin at 11 a.m.

STUDENT SENATE ELECTIONS
Nick Sterner, Shawnee junior, and KUnited candidate, is announced president with vice presiden tial candidate, Marynell Jones, Dallas junior, a little after 7 last night. Members of the KUnited coalition celebrated at the Madhatter Bar and Grill, 623 Vermont St. This is the fourth consecutive year KUnited's candidates have won the presidential and vice presidential election for Student Senate.

Nick Sterner raised his right hand in the air and held up four fingers as the saint sound of a radio announced that KUInited had won the 2005 Student Body President/Vice President elections.
Mike Poznansky/KANSAN
His hand symbolized the fourth year in a row that KUnited had won.
Vice president-elect Marynell Jones hugged him as about 100 people who gathered at the KUited election party at the Mad Hatter Bar and. Grill, 623 Vermont St., began to cheer and pour champagne.
Nick Sterner, Shawnee junior, and Marynell Jones, Dallas junior, celebrate after the announcement of the 2005 student election campaign last night.
"I'm absolutely thrilled for all the candidates associated with KUinited," Sterner said. "They've worked their tails off from day one, and it's all about the KUinited family."
Sterner was then met with hugs and handshakes from everyone at the party, and his parents said they had never been more proud.
Jones said she had mixed feelings after the results were announced, as her brother Arthur Jones, Dallas junior, lost his Senate seat.
Jones celebrated in a similar fashion to Sterner, as people on the street congratulated her with hugs.

"My twin brother lost, that's hard for me," she said. "It's bittersweet because he's one of the best senators we have."
Jones missed out on a junior/senior CLAS seat by two votes. Jones previously served as the chairman of the student executive committee.
It became a bittersweet victory for the entire coalition because it won only three of the 14 junior/senior CLAS Senate positions.
"We knew they were going to be the hardest seats to win," Sterner said. "They worked every day for us, it hurts me very much."
Students approve new fees
Overall, though, it was a positive night for KUnited.

Both referendums on the ballot for the 2005 Student Senate elections passed by a considerable margin last night.
Student Union Activities proposed a $5 fee to bring in more popular talent to the University. The University was the tenth school in the conference to designate a fee for student activities.
"SUA can now provide acts that a university like ours should be able to provide," Dunlap said. "SUA has always done a great job with the budget they had, and now they can expand on that."
REFERENDUM B
A $5 per semester fee to fund Student Union Activities
A $1.50 student fee increase to fund Legal Services For Students
The fee was necessary in order for the University to keep pace with the other universities, said Jeff Dunlap, student body vice president and author of the referendum.

Coalition claims moral victory
It had a clear victory with 11 out of 14 junior/senior College of Liberal Arts and Sciences seats despite losses in the presidential-vice presidential vote and a failure to earn seats in the majority of the professional schools and the freshman/sophomore CLAS.
Delta Force members found a reason to celebrate after losing the 2005 Student Senate elections.

ERIC SORRENTOIN

KANSAN STAFF WRITERS
Cheers also erupted from the crowd of approximately 40 students who gathered in the "Bungalow" at 1236 Louisiana St. when it was announced that the two student referendums, both of which Delta Force had campaigned for, were passed.
Kevin McKenzie, Salina junior, said he wasn't surprised
Online voting was another new factor this year. Jardon said online voting helped Delta Force because many of its supporters were studying abroad and working at off-campus internships.
"It's impossible to know what makes a difference, and CLAS is such a big school," he said.
"Just the fact that we have elections online is a victory," lardon said.
Delta Force tried to emphasize its presidential-vice presidential team this year. Elaine Jardon, Overland Park sophomore, and Stephanie Craig, Edmond, Okla., junior, were the first all-female, all-Greek duo to run with Delta Force.
Delta Force invited the
Student Voice coalition to the Bungalow. Ethan Nuss, Salina junior, said that despite their differences, both coalitions saw no reason why they shouldn't celebrate together.
Jardon and the rest of the crowd clapped when KUnited was declared the winner of the presidential-vice presidential race.
With the last Delta Force victory in 2001, members have learned to take the losses with a grain of salt. Members celebrated their accomplishments after the results were announced.
"We share a common bond in that we tried to take down the incumbent," Nuss said.
Jardon said even though the semester was ending, Delta Force would stay involved on campus. She said the coalition would work on passing legislation through activism on campus, including registering voters and screening movies.

Loss an 'off year' for Student Voice

After the election results were announced, members of the Student Voice coalition were busy planning for next year.
The coalition lost the presidential election and all seven freshman/sophomore Student Senate seats, but coalition member Jack Connor wasn't too upset.
but we expected to lose," said Connor, Overland Park freshman and freshman/sophomore Senate candidate.
Dennis Chanay, Student Voice presidential candidate said even though the coalition lost all the seats it ran for, the election process was still beneficial for the coalition.
"We went in wanting to win.
"Anything was really OK for us because we really just wanted to be around to run for next year," Chanay said.
Today's weather
"This year we learned what worked and what didn't work," he said. "This was our test run."
The coalition, which ran eight freshmen and one junior candidate, learned about the campaign process, said A.J. Pollack, Topeka freshman and freshman/sophomore Senate candidate.
Pollack said it was difficult to run against two well-organized and well-financed coalitions.

Editor's Note
When a man strokes my face, I want him to whisper. "Baby, your skin is so smooth," not "Eww . . . well, I have a great exfoliator you
can borrow." Maybe it's selfish, but I want to be the soft one, the pretty one, the one who takes forever to get ready. I don't want to walk in on my boyfriend while he's wearing a face-mask and reading one of my old Cosmos.
But our men-folk are changing. They buy specialty shampoo, lotion and after-shave. They wear Diesel jeans and Lacoste polos. They get manicures and haircuts with body and shape. The days of the local barbershop are coming to an end, and they are being replaced by Saturday afternoons at designer stores and expensive salons. Maha Masud explores this phenomenon, nicknamed metrosexuality, in-depth on page 10.
Some women embrace this new feminization of their men. They like that they take care of themselves. They like a sharply dressed, cologne-laced man. But to me, the best smell on a man does not come in a bottle of Aqua Di Gio or Very Sexy but from working on a car for a few hours. It's that motor grease/sweat scent of hard work. Dirt covers his clothes and hands, but he comes in the house with that sweet smell, proud that he just fixed your radiator belt. He should have a couple of calluses, stubble and a farmer's tan — not that all-over glow from the bronzer bottle.

Spring into sushi
By Britta Florman, Jayplay writer
Making sushi at home is cheap, easy and delicious
10
After eating at Lawrence's premier sushi restaurant, WA, 740 Massachusetts St. I left with a happy belly but an unhappy waist. The simple Japanese meal satisfied my hunger, but I don't expand my stomach beyond its comfort zone. A sushi meal is 180 degrees different from the classic American buffet, which leaves you feeling like you ate a small child.
The first step to making your own suki is getting the ingredients. You can find everything you need at Hy-Vee, 4000 W. Sixth St., or at Community Mercantile, 901 Iowa St., for about the same cost. After the initial investment in these suki-making supplies, you are set for at least two suki meals.
You can replicate the Japanese dining experience in your own home. With about a $20 investment and hour of your precious time, you can learn basic sushi-rolling techniques and create your own pieces of chewy, crunchy, creamy sushi.
Getting the goods
Although sushi is often associated with raw seafood, sushi actually means rice dressed with vinegar in Japanese. Fish can be consumed as a part of sushi, but it is not a necessary ingredient. Your basic homemade sushi rolls will consist of sheets of nori (a roasted sea plant), sushi rice, rice vinegar, and your choice of fillings.
*nori*, $5
*rice vinegar*,$ 3
*a bag of sush rice*, $3.79
*sparagus, avocado and baby carrots*$ 5
- wasabi powder (purchased at the Community Mercantile in bulk herbs). $2
- bamboo sushi roller, (from the Community Mercantile)$ 3
To make the spicy wasabi paste, combine 2 tablespoons of hot water with each tablespoon of wasabi powder. This peppercorn will add a sharp taste to your sushi.
Be sure to also set out sides of soy sauce or tamari to dip your sushi in.
Prep
In the kitchen
Having a partner in your suki-creating experience is helpful but not necessary. To start, warm your oven to 400 degrees. Combine 3 cups of water and 2 cups of dry suki rice in a pot with a tight-fitting lid. Simply bring to a boil and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove rice from heat and let it sit for 10 more minutes.

Time to roll
This is the fun part. To ensure the suhi rice doesn't stick to your hands, prepare a small bowl of cold water with a splash of water and pour your hands with before you touch the rice.

1. Place a 4-by-7-inch piece of nori with its lines parallel to the lines of the bamboo roller. The edge of the nori and the bammy are glued at the end of the mat closest to you.
During this time, prepare the vinegar mixture for the rice by combining in a

saucepant: 1_ tablespoon sugar, 2_table-
spoon rice vinegar and a teaspoon of
salt. Simmer and stir until sugar and salt
are dissolved, then take off the heat.
Prepare your other sushi fillings by cutting the carrots and avocado into thin slices. Also thinly slice the asparagus after it's cooked. Once the rice has absorbed the water, transfer it to a glass bowl (not metal) and drizzle with vinegar mixture. Turn the rice a couple times, but do not stir it.
2. Form a loose ball of rice about the size of a small apple and place in the center of the nori sheet. Slowly spread the rice evenly over the nori, about three to four
5. Wet your knife and cut the roll into six pieces by holding a sharp knife at a 45 degree angle over it and cutting down with slow controlled movements.

grains thick, leaving a 1-inch border at the top.
4. While holding the nori with your thumb and index finger, fold and roll the nori over ingredients. Continue lifting the mat so the nori rolls around and closes. You can further round the roll with your hand to seal it. Hyeon J. Shin, Seoul, South Korea freshman and "sushi man" at WA, sushi ushing with a bamboo mat covered with a layer of plastic wrap. Shin uses the plastic-covered bamboo mat to round the roll after he has first rolled it closed with his hands.

Set 'Em Up Jack's 1800 E.23rd St.
A barrage of TVs showing different sports games adorn the high-ceiling walls of Set'Em Up Jack's, and a pool table sits in the far right corner next to a jukebox. The layout may seem like any other sports bar, but the variety of food makes it anything but.
**Food type:** In addition to regular bar fare — burgers and fries — the menu includes an array of sandwiches and entrees, such as fried catfish and teriyaki chicken. Make sure to try more unusual
sides such as the fried okra or especially the crunchy sweet potato fries, which Stephanie Grissom, server, says are popular and shouldn't be missed.
Attire requirements: Casual, but you can sport your favorite team's shirt if you want.
Price range: Entrees range from $9 to$ 13. Side dishes cost about $3.
JACKS
Date-worthiness: Not really. Although the lighting is pretty subtle, all the commotion and TVs take away any opportunity for intimacy.
Booze availability: There are about 15 beers on tap, such as Boulevard, Bud Light, Guinness, Harp, Sam Adams and Fat Tire, as well as an array of other types of liquor, so you can create whatever drink you are in the mood for.
Game time: Catch any of the games here while kicking back with a beer and a burger.

Finding the Balance
The importance of finding time for not only your partner but also your friends
By Ashley Doyle, Jayplay writer
finding time for not only
Photo illustration by Kit Leffler
When this pattern started, the Overland Parksenior would try to call her friend to hang out, but Lisa says her friend constantly made excuses about how she was too tired. Lisa has now given up on their friendship. She says she was treated poorly and was tired of putting all the effort into their friendship.
Altering time with friends to spend more time with your partner is a common occurrence, says Counseling and Psychological Services intern Beth Kirser. Of her clients who do pull away from their friends while in relationships, she says they are regretful about it. "I've never had a client say that I'm glad I stopped hanging out with my friends," Kirser says. While short bursts, such as a week, of hanging out with your partner are acceptable to friends, Kirser says problems can arise when the friend starts to feel neglected for a long period of time. Not only will the friend start looking for other time alterna-
Lisa used to only see one of her friends on two occasions. One, when her friend's boyfriend was busy. And two, when the friend and her boyfriend were having problems and she wanted advice.
tives, but when the non-single friend becomes single and wants to resume the friendship, she says there is usually resentment and the friend isn't going to want to go back to the friendship.
This unbalanced budgeting of time between friends and significant others is not common for Nashville, Tenn., junior Greg Levy. He says when one of his friends has a girlfriend, the group expects to see that friend less. "The girlfriend takes priority and you work around that," Levy says. College students already have a lot to do and when a relationship is added to the list, it's difficult to budget things evenly, Levy says.
Sharing her time between her friends and her boyfriend is something that Emily Kravit says she has learned to do well. When the Milwaukee junior started dating her boyfriend, Brad Patchessky, five and a half years ago, she said it was difficult to leave time for her friends. She says she was so excited to see him that she wanted to be with him all the time, it wasn't until she came to college that she says she realized how important the balancing act between the partner and friend really is. Kravit and Patchessky realized they were
spending too much time together when they started fighting about minor things, so they decided to spend more time with their friends. One way Kravit cultivates her friendships is by dedicating Thursday nights to her girlfriend, which usually entails a trip to the Sandbar, 17 E. Eighth St.
Even in a long distance relationship, Chicago sophomore Danielle Herman makes sure not to drop her friends when her hometown boyfriend comes to visit. Herman says even though she only sees him once a month, when he comes to visit, he isn't the number one priority and that her friends are just as important. Her solution is to go to bars where she knows both her boyfriend and her friends will have fun.
It's challenging being a friend who has been ditched says Sioux City, Iowa, sophomore Sean Galloway. You're happy your friend met someone, but you also kind of ticked off with your end of the deal, Galloways says. "It's like, wow, your girlfriend is a big inconvenience to me," Galloway says.
If you're hurt by your friend's disappearance, Klaren says it's best to bring it
up. Start by saying, "We haven't done much together lately," and if your friend still doesn't catch on, Kirsner recommends telling your friend you're upset with the lack of time you have spent together.
While a girlfriend or boyfriend is a common factor that takes up time in a schedule, Kirsner says a new friend, a job or schoolwork can also have similar results. Kirsner says the only difference is that people tend to be more understanding if it's a job or schoolwork because that's something people do because they have to, not because they choose to.
It's natural to spend a lot of time with your partner, but Kirsner says it's important to not forget about the life you had before your partner. "Everyone needs to get different things from different people in their lives. If you start putting all your time in one person, you will miss out on all those other things you used to have," Kirsner says.

Vikki Parry and Brett Mcafee
Vikki Parry and Brett McAfee, both Kansas City, Kan., freshmen, started dating in high school. Parry had a crush on McAfee since she first saw him during freshman orientation at Piper High School, but she didn't start dating him until her sophomore year. During biology class that year, Parry told McAfee that she had a dream that she kissed him. McAfee used what he called a reverse pick-up line and suavely replied, "Well, maybe we can make that come true." He asked Parry out on a date and they have been dating since.

How does your garden grow?
Plants can make your house feel like a home. But keeping them alive can be a challenge.
By Leigh Ann Foskey, Jayplay writer
Last
August I moved into my own apartment. A week after my move, I received a housewarming gift from my mom, a basket filled with green plants interspersed with The Haworth greenhouse stretches across a rooftop. Many different types of plants grow in the area, from kumquats to lilies.

it on my window sill, and I was hooked. The planter, overflowing with little green sprouts of life, made my small studio apartment feel so much warmer. Unconciously I had begun a new challenge; keep these plants alive.
Renee Marchin, graduate student in plant biology, says she recently started growing her own houseplants too. "My mom sucked at it, so I thought I couldn't do it," she says. Marchin now owns a mother-in-law's tongue, orchid, bamboo and a Christmas cactus she got on Valentine's Day. And she hopes to soon add geraniums to her houseplant collection. Whether you have a green thumb or not, keeping house plants can be a satisfying experience, Marchin says, you just have to know where to start.
The plant
Orchid
Pick something you like, flowering or not. Keep in mind where you want to keep
the plant and what its light requirements are. Marchin says orchids are her favorite to grow. "Orchids are some of the coolest plants to keep around," she
says. "The flowers are really intricate. Some look like faces or even small monkeys." Marchin says orchids bloom in the right conditions, a bright room away from direct sunlight. Orchids often die from over-watering, so only water when soil is dry to the touch. Like most house plants, orchids are available at garden centers and nurseries. If you decide to get an orchid Marchin suggests buying one that's not in bloom. The plants are the same but blooming orchids cost more than those without flowers.
If you have pets, make sure your new plant is safe. The snake plant, also called a mother-in-law's tongue, looks cool but is poisonous. So get a plant that your dog or cat can get along with.
Your new plant may need to be re-potted. If the roots are coming out of the bottom of the planter, buy a pot that's a little larger. Darrell Helling, manager of Earl May Nursery & Garden Center, 3200 Iowa St., says to upgrade slowly because plants don't grow any faster in a bigger pot. Helling says to choose any pot you like as long as it's the right size. Most pots are made from plastic, ceramic or terra cotta. But Helling warns that terra cotta can absorb moisture from the roots of the plant.
The pot
The soil
Don't bring home dirt from the nearest park to pot your plants, it can shock them. Helling says to buy a well-balanced soil that contains perlite, peat moss and vermiculite, which keep the soil from becoming too compacted and allow air flow to the roots. Helling also suggests buying a fertilizer that clearly says it can be used on indoor plants and is water soluble. Liquid or granule fertilizer, as well as a balanced soil are available at any local nursery or garden center.
succulents should be placed in a shallow pot. These plants store their own water and don't rely on moisture from the soil like leafy plants do.
Keeping your plant alive
Most foliage or leafy plants can be placed in any standard pot. But cacti and
Once your plant is potted, you have to help it grow. First, determine your plant's light requirements. You can either do a little research on your plant or ask someone at your local garden center. Plants, such as Pothos, should be placed away from direct sunlight while Spider Plants grow well on a windowsill. The placement of your plant may help you determine what type you should buy. You can place different plants in the same pot as long as you keep the ones with the same light requirements together.
Jayplay 04.14.05
Second, add cool, clean water. Just as plants can die from too little water, they
The top 5 easiest plants to grow:

So, it's been eight months since I started growing my own plants, and most of them are still alive. Looking back, I never thought I would care so much about them, but I do. So try it, you too might dig up a talent you never knew you had.
trim them. Helling says just to take off the yellow and brown leaves and any dead stems. You can trim plants, such as the Spider Plant, right below the nodes on the branches. If you place the stems in a cup of water, they will sprout roots and grow into another spider plant. These make great gifts for friends and family; they're pretty and last a long time.

Every time I go home, my mom does my laundry. And every time she adds my whites to the rest of the family's, she notices how white my whites are. "They make mine look dingy," she said once.
Having brilliantly white whites isn't hard, but it takes more than just separating whites from your other clothes. Just add two capfuls of color-safe bleach to your load. Color-safe bleach isn’t as harsh as regular bleach, which can damage your clothes.

secret lives
BOMBERO
of professors
By Robert Perkins, Jayplaywriter
CLASSICAT
Photos by Kit Leffler
Professor David Besson, center practices with members of his band "Galactic Acid".
How well do you really know the people who teach you?
So as it turns out, professors actually have lives outside of class. Like many students, in the back of my mind I'd always just assumed that when professors weren't teaching us, they lurked back to their offices to sleep in their khakis and ties while the rest of us went out and had fun. But as I found out, when class is over professors sneak out to their secret lives off campus.
The novelist
A lot of professors write their own textbooks, but how many also write novels about espionage and romance? Bezaleel Benjamin, professor of architecture, is the proud publisher of a handful of novels including his 1988 release Rampaging Lovers.
Dr. B., as he's known to his students, says he doesn't write for fame or money. "I enjoy doing it for my own sake," he says. "If it doesn't sell, I don't care." He typically prints between 50 and 100 copies of each
novel he writes, selling or giving them to friends and family. And not only does he write the novels, Dr.B. also prints and binds them. He says he tried to publish them under his wife's publishing firm, which handles many of his textbooks, but that she stopped printing them after his first novel failed to sell. Not that there's any animosity about the rejection. "I'm the only writer who goes to bed with his publisher," he says. Now Dr.B. publishes his novels though his own firm, the A.B. Literary House.
Laura Lafoe, St. Louis junior and one of Dr. B.'s students, says that when she and her classmates heard a rumor that Dr. B. wrote novels, they looked him up on Amazon.com. Although she says it's interesting that he writes, she says she doesn't have any desire to read his novels for herself.
"Just knowing that they exist is enough information for me," she says.
Dr. B, has three more novels in the works right now. The 67-year-old professor says he's running out of energy for this sort of thing but hopes to print The Nature of God: A Simple Explanation for Everyone some-day soon.
The rock star
When Dave Besson runs into one of his students while his band is playing at a bar, he says they usually aren't all that surprised to see him.
"I think they're amused more than anything," he says, adding that he doesn't think he projects the image of the "classic professor-type." Besson, a professor of
physics, has been in various bands for the past 15 years, ever since graduate school. Right now he plays guitar for Galactic Acid, which he describes as a typical college rock band. His two band mates are both students at the University of Kansas, one of them a former student of his.
Besson says that he usually doesn't talk much about his band to his students, but on occasion, he'll bring it up. "In my more self-glorifying moments, I do," he says. "It's kind of an extension of my misspent youth."
The card shark
Cliff Phillips doesn't like to be called a card shark. Although the graduate teaching assistant in philosophy plays Texas Hold 'em at least once a week during the school year — more often during the summer — and estimates that he's won more than he's lost, he still says he's no star.
For the past year, Phillips has been one of 100 or so people in Lawrence who play in the Poker Pub, a poker league that travels from bar to bar holding tournaments. He also plays in casinos at friends' houses.
Phillips says he likes the game's combination of luck and skill and that the possibility of making money while playing doesn't hurt either. He's won up to $600 in a game and says he usually just puts the money back into playing more poker.
"I don't have family, don't have kids, so I don't spend my money on anything else," he says.

Bitch + Moan
By Jessi Crowder and Chris Tackett
When's the last time you had a decent foot job?
Q
Everything's dreamy with my new boyfriend until we start fooling around. I get really freaked out because his fingernails are long and I think he could cut me. Should I tell him to cut them or is that mean?
—Lilian, freshman
Jessi: Let's make a distinction. Mean is laughing at an elderly person when their walker slips and they fall to the ground. Common courtesy is asking your boyfriend to trim his nails so that he won't slice your genitals. It's an issue of self respect. Do you love your vagina?
Chris: It'll only be mean if you tell him in a bitchy way. So don't be bitchy. I can't stand long fingernails. And long toenails make me throw up in my mouth a little bit. I hate that. Let him know he's not touching the box unless his nails are clean and well-trimmed. We're not talking manicures here, just a little self-respect and personal hygiene.
Q
Q
I asked a girl out for drinks and she excitedly said "yes:" But then when we got to the bar she revealed that she didn't drink alcohol. WTF? I didn't know what to do. Should I have drank as usual or stayed sober with my date? And was she BS'ing me for some reason or what?
a
Jessi: The fact that she said yes speaks volumes. Not only does she like you enough to go out with you, but she'll go out with you for drinks when she doesn't even drink. And she most likely wasn't BS'ing you since she never actually said "Yes, I will drink alcoholic beverages with you in a bar setting." I'm sure she would have said "yes" had you asked her to coffee or eat babies. As for your drinking, you should have done what you would have normally without going overboard.
Chris: Since you were at a bar I'd ask her if she was OK with you drinking; but limit yourself to one or two drinks. Better yet, you could suggest that you leave and head somewhere else for coffee. But don't assume because she doesn't drink she doesn't want to be at a bar, the atmosphere may be what she's after. And Jessi is right, Sober Sally's willingness to "meet you for drinks" is a good sign she's interested. I'd try to make out with her soon.
Q al
What is a foot job? I've heard the term but i have no idea what it really means. Is it like a blow job for feet?
—Dan, sophomore
Jessi: I think it's when you get a pedicure and start dating your pedicurist. Actually, according to my resources, a "foot job" is when a woman stimulates a man's member with her feet in an attempt to pleasure him. No toe-sucking is involved.
Chris: I'm deeming foot jobs to be the new Hotness of Spring 2005. For those of us who aren't hipsters and lack class: a foot job can be anything involving feet to stimulate the junk. According to Internet porn, popular maneuvers include girls pressing the arches of their feet together and having the guy eff the space between. Or on the flip-side, the toes can be used to stimulate the girl's cookie or other nearby locales. (i.e. the butt)

Ladies, beware of your next trip to the shopping mall or salon. You may be waiting in line behind a fashionable fella, Pampers, preening
Though the metrosexual trend is fairly young, the term itself was born more than 10 years ago. Mark Simpson, a journalist, coined the term in 1994 when he used it in the British publication "The Independent"
The metrousexual trend is Staples' proof of that his penchant for nice clothes isn't out of the ordinary. "I haven't changed, but the world has changed to accommodate my tastes," Staples says. Rangineni, agrees, saying that the metro trend is just a testament to the changing views of society. He says that the explosion of men's magazines like GQ, Maxim, Men's Health (his favorite), drives this new metro-man idea because it gives tips and hints to dressing better, eating better, conditioning better.
Male as old as time
Man's image has changed dramatically over the years, says Mark Justad, a member of the American Men's Studies Association. He says that the range of male identity has broadened to include and embrace the metrousexual trend, identities are more flexible, says the Vanderbilt University professor of culture and religion, and as a result emotions and vulnerability — traits stereotypically associated with women — are now being linked to male heterosexual identity. Though the "macho man" image was prevalent in the past, it's not to say that men
Sandeep Rangineni, who was voted "best dressed" in high school, says his friends often ease him about his color-coordinated closet. He says that he was raised to look presentable at all times and looks at dressing well as a sign of respect to his family. As a result, he never leaves the house without a collared shirt on. Ian Staples, Lawrence sophomore, remembers that he demanded to wear a suit and tie to school on the first day of first grade. Years later, Staples sports jeans and hooded sweatshirts to class, but he would prefer to wear a suit every day because he is more comfortable in slacks.
In this age where image is everything and looks really do matter, it's no surprise that women are no longer the only ones asking the mirror, "Who is the fairest one of all." Men are joining the ranks of the style-and grooming-conscious public and are fashioning — literally — a new generation of men.

A closer look at the metrosexual trend, and what it means to be a man today.
By Maha Masud, Jayplay writer
who cared about appearance simply didn't exist. Justed says the metrosexual man has been around for a long time, known by other monikers such as the "dandy," who was an appearance-concerned man in the late 18th century. He says that the metrosexual is just a more evolved form of this kind of man.
He rolls his 6-foot.
Men who care about clothes and grooming are growing in number, and a whole trend has unleashed itself on society as a result. The word "metosexual" has taken on a life of its own. In 2003, "metrosexual" was voted as the word of the year by the American Dialect Society, which means that it dominated conversations in America during that time. Shows like "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy," along with facial products and hair care lines, have found a new consumer in hetero men with products created and marketed specifically for men. The male identity is getting a makeover, and the "metrosexual" is just one of the new looks.
dent. He used the word to describe a new crop of urban, heterosexual males, who have good incomes, shop at the best stores and are concerned about fashion and facials. Simpson says that this new masculinity is fashioned the traditional repressed, "unmoisturized" masculinity, and that Hollywood, advertising and magazines are the
He rolls his 6-toot. 2-inch lanky frame out of bed at 7 a.m. and sleepily heads to the shower. After that, it's time to put together the day's ensemble, which some serious close consultation. Finding an outfit that matches isn't too difficult because the whole closet is color coordinated. Today he feels like going casual, so出 come a gray Polo shirt, his favorite brand, Guess jeans that are faded just right and a black Armani Exchange belt to put around his slim waist. For accessories, a silver Breitling watch — more like a navigation system — hooks around his left wrist and Polo socks envelop his feet. A last glance in the mirror reflects shapely lips sheltered under a long but graceful nose. A 5 o'clock shadow spreads across green brown cheeks and a cleft chin, but if it's the eyebrows he notices. It's time for another waxing appointment; he thinks to himself as he walks out the door. Sandeep Rangineni, St. Joseph senior and a self-proclaimed metrouxual, is now ready to face the day.
and shopping are no longer limited to just females. the commercial world is picking up on this trend, which is a factor to its popularity, says Mark Justad, professor at Vanderbilt University. He says that men's magazines are a driving force behind the metrosexual madness because the fashion/hair care/care industry now has new consumers and need men to pay attention to their products. By creating images of what's currently "in," marketing

Rangineni now goes monthly to a salon in Lawrence for hair cuts and waxing services and facials. With all the new options for pampering and preening themselves, men are trying to maintain manliness while living a luxurious lifestyle.
techniques use men's newfound self-consciousness to make sure they pay special attention to the products. A barrage of personal care brands like Suave, Nivea and Aveda have created products just for men to cleanse, care and codle themselves with. ACNielson, a marketing research company, credits the metrosexhalphenomenon as the reason behind the boom in the sales of personal care products. According to ACNelson's study, women who prefer oriented products is the reason why shower gels, one of the fastest growing personal care items worldwide, increased 7 percent in sales value in 2003.
Image is an important part of the metrosexual mindset, says Jenny Coiner, stylist at LADA Salon and, Spa, 4931 W. Sixth Coin. Coiner says that although men can go to a
regular barbershop to get their hair cut, going to a salon creates a certain image that men want to portray. She says she has about 40 male clients who come through weekly to get services ranging from haircuts and waxing, to manicures and pedicures. She thinks that an increase in options for men is part of the pull. Typically women have had all of the care options, but now men have more choices and are going against the old stereotypes. Rangi-neni gets facials and has his eyebrows waxed. Getting facials was 'originally his idea'. In high school, he used to

can express their sensitivity, vanity and enjoy the 'finer' pamperings without being attached to homosexual stigma, "says Karl Geiger, Sterling, Va, senior.
Hey Dapper Dan
Masculinity means different things to different people these days. A metro man's sexuality is often questioned because of his fashion sense or lifestyle. In the past, well-dressed, sensitive men were assumed to be homosexual, but that isn't necessarily the case anymore. Staples says that metro guys aren't trying to be feminine but are defining masculinity in their own terms. What is normal now? Certain interests seem to be designated as hetero for a guy while others are not. "Metrosexuality is a way men
For Justin Montgomery, Wellsville junior, it comes down what characteristics one defines as being a man. To him, being a man means responsibility and discipline, not authority. He is not a man who sexually takes away from being a man though. Instead he
says it takes discipline to look good. "Who wants to wash their face before bed every night, and then on put a plethora of creams to have that perfect clear skin? Who wants to iron shirts and fold pants so they don't crease when you put them in the closet? if a guy cares that much, he will," Montgomery says.
The metro movement has some people realizing that men and women are not so different, making the male identity much more pliant than in the past. Alankar Patel, St. Louis senior, says that metrousexual blend male and female characteristics, making what it means to be a gay difference in every woman, is necessary for a girl to get ready, and he says that metrousexual guys might have more patience than he does when it comes to
fashion. It's the level of comfort that's important, Patel says, and for some it may be jeans, for others it's nice pants.
"Guys have been let off the hook about being a slob," says Randy Crowell, owner of The Haircut and Sakaroff's the Salon, 12 E. Eighth St. He likes the idea that men should be strong, sensitive and take care of their appearance, but he also says guys shouldn't go too far in getting in touch with their feminine side. Crowell wanted a place for guys to go hang out and be guys," so she created The

Haircut, 3727 W. Sixth St., an upscale barbershop just for men. Where most salons are geared toward female clientele, at The Haircut men can watch sports, shoot pool and just "be guys." Crowell says it's a matter of balancing characteristics to maintain differences that he says is OK to have. A more extreme version of Crowell's viewpoint is a backlash against the metro trend. A marketing campaign to "Save the Regular Guy," created by Consort Hair Care line, questions why a guy has to follow certain fashion rules, and touts its products as keeping men on the "regular guy" track. According to Consort's Web site, that means going back to "a place where guys are guys, girls are girls, and no one is confused."
For some women, a metro man usually doesn't cause confusion, though a female's eye for the metro guy varies depending on the woman you talk to. Journalist Mark Simpson says that women regard metrosexuals in three ways: Appreciatively, as competition, or not at all. Adrienne Hill, Kansas City, Mo. junior, says she doesn't think metrosexual guys are weird or unmanly, and actually prefers a metrosexual-type guy. "Yeah I approve of the trend, a guy who can dress well is attractive to me," she says. Hill and her boyfriend, a KU graduate, both define him as metrosexual. She likes how he keeps his place in Dallas so neat and organized. Hill also appreciates his attention to her and her clothes. She says he compliments her if she gets something new and makes an effort not to clash with her when they go out together. Jenny Rizzo, Kansas City, Mo. sophomore, is just the opposite. She likes her guy to be a "guy." Being a low-key kind of girl, Rizzo says she'd be irritated if a guy was too high-maintenance. A metrosexual type of guy just wouldn't suit her, Rizzo says, because his tastes and interests would be too different from her own, and she isn't attracted to that kind of guy.
Pink Poll
Because the metrosexual trend brings a sense of self-assurance when it comes to fashion, I asked 15 random guys if they would be willing to wear a pink shirt, and the results may surprise you.
Ten out of the 15 (or 66 percent) guys said they would wear a pink shirt, although some guys were reluctant to admit it.

IRELAND
The metrosexual trend has been scrutinized by a judgmental eye. While there are some out there who view the "regular" guy as a sinking ship they need to save, the general consensus of people, male and female, favors expanding the male identity and sees many characteristics of metrosexuals as improving upon the old image. Justad, Vanderbilt professor, says that metrosexuals are a sign of tolerance and open-mindedness in a playful, albeit important, way. No one likes generalizing though, and the term metrosexual seems too limited, with no definition sufficiently capturing this emerging type of man.

Interview:John Medeski
By Peter Van Auken, Jayplay correspondent writer
Imagine a musician with the precision and range of a celebrated ballroom pianist (he was classically trained at a young age) then mix in a bit of American stank (wicked analog synth bends and blazing organs). This might describe John Medeski, savant keyboard player of the jazz/groove trio Medeski, Martin and Wood. Accompanied by bassist Chris Wood and percussionist Billy Martin, the band first hit the New York jazz scene in 1992. Their unique blend of instrumental music touches jazz, funk, hip-hop, Latin, avant-garde and beyond. You can click Medeski Martin and Wood live at Liberty Hall on April 20.
So you guys usually start your shows in free-form...
(laughs) Everybody says that, but beah,
we think this is good for us because it sort of calls in the improvisational spirits, paying them homage, so they give us something to do later in the show.
Who out there can match your strength on the keyboard?
Herbie Hancock. I’m not even close to being on his level. He’s never played a bad note in his life. Or there’s Jamie Staff, he’s unbelievable. I don’t even think I’m that good. I’ve got a lot to learn.
The Jet Lag
If you were exiled to a desert island and you could take one book and one CD, what would you take?
A
Tucked between a gas station and an apartment complex, the Jet Lag, 610 Florida St. can be hard to find. The inside atmosphere doesn't suggest more from its suburban location, but it had a great time sipping on a beer. The Lag, as it's known to regulars, offers a no fuss, relaxed evening out for a drink. There's plenty of seating around the large bar or at the table surrounding the perimeter. During the weekdays,Jet Lag is less crowded, and I was able to huddle around one of the tables and chat with friends. There's an outside patio with concrete floors and a wooden fence that doesn't add much ambiance either, but it is a nice escape in warmer weather.
I'd probably take a book of blank pages so I could draw and write stuff down myself. The CD, well, it would all depend on the day. I would either take John Coltrane's "Love Supreme" or Glen Gould playing the "Bach Goldberg Variations," his newest one.
Monday: $4 pitchers

So you've always got a great mix of keyboards in your setup. What have you been playing with lately?
Well, the piano keeps drawing me back, but I've got this new newt Electric electric piano in my setup that's got this real bass. Kind of like a Far East organ, it's cool.

Last Call, 729 New Hampshire St., isn't the only bar or club in Lawrence with a dress code. Most bars, especially those with a dance club atmosphere, have guidelines concerning apparel that you have to follow. Although dress codes vary, some common things you can't wear to the bar are jerseys, wife beaters, torn clothing and skull caps. Clubs that consider themselves higher class, such as Abe and Jakes Landing, E 8.E sixth St., Liquid, 806 W. 24th St., and It's Brothers! Bar and Grill, 1105 Massachusetts St., tend to have an even more extensive dress code. Dress codes at these bars prohibit sweats, gym shorts and velour suits.
Another reason dress codes are a must for most bars and clubs has nothing to with what people are wearing. People from surrounding towns come to Lawrence to party and issues arise between these people from out of town
Dress to impress
So why do bars and clubs have dress codes? "Dress codes exist because if people are dressed nice they don't act as stupid," says Ronald Ruiz, owner of The Moon Bar, 801 S. Iowa St. "Hip-hop night draws a little rougher crowd. If they are dressed nice they are less likely to get in trouble."
unaware of what they have to wear in order to get into certain bars and clubs.
Is race the case?
An issue often connected to dress code is race. Many people will argue that dress codes are used to keep people from different races out of certain bars and clubs. For instance, Last Call prohibits people with braids from entering its bar. A large majority of people with braids are not Caucasian so the dress code seems racist against African Americans and Hispanics.
Ruiz believes that dress codes have nothing to do with race. "It has to do with people being uneducated," Ruiz says. "It's a fact that you can go out and have a fine time if you are dressed nice and you won't cause as much trouble," he says. "I have seen it."
Others say that race is an issue when
dealing with dress codes. Renita Davidson, Arlington senior, says that she has faced discrimination at a bar because of her race. She and two of her friends, who are also African-American, went to a local club and were denied access because her friend had on a collared shirt with the brand logo, Sean John, written on it. "I don't think it had anything to do with what we were wearing because we were dressed nice," Davidson says. "I just don't think they wanted to let three black people into their bar."
Next time you head out for a night on the town, you might want to call ahead of time and coordinate your outfit with your bar or club of choice's dress code. Otherwise, you may be all dressed up with nowhere to go.

Cocktail of the week Tom Collins
Ingredients:
1 1/2 oz. Gin
Juice of 1 lemon
Club soda

It's the classic case of which came first: the Tom or the Collins? This drink was invented by John Collins, a waiter at Lipmmer's Old House on Coduit Street in Hanover Square, England. The name Tom was used instead of John because the drink was made with Old Tom Gin. Today, a derivation of the Tom Collins — the John Collins — is made with whiskey.

Fever Pitch
(★☆)
PG-13, 103 Minutes, South Wind 12
Drew Barrymore and Jimmy Fallon star in the remake of an adaptation from a novel that was set in England and based around soccer. But this heartwarming comedy successfully becomes an entity of its own in the hands of its directors, the Farrelly Brothers.
Ben is a decent, likeable and funny guy; and a dream of Lindsay when she meets him. But her friends warn her. He must have something wrong with him to be single at this age. And there is — he's a Red Sox fan. That says it all, apparently. It comes down to having to find a balance between the woman he loves and the love of his life, the Red Sox.
Fallon and Barryme work well together — funny, charming and believable. Fallon brilliantly plays a character who is identifiable as having a deep passion for something, which we all know about, and having to bring together two parts of his life that eventually counter
each other, Barrymore is adorable, and plays the strong role of a woman letting herself love someone finally, and then feeling as though she is taking something away from him.
The story is engaging, and sweet and hilarious at moments, and at one point is coincidentally relevant to this area — a great jibe at the KRCOvals, which got a round of applause in the theater. Like most Parrelly Brothers films, the movie doesn't take itself seriously in any way, and while there are cheesy and predictable parts, there is also some surprising and dirty humor hinted at, keeping the audience entertained throughout. In many ways it is a step up again for the directors after films such as Shallow Hall, compared to which this film is far superior.

Not a particularly fresh comedy, but one that will perhaps be better to wait for on DVD, to have a quiet evening in with a pizza and a group of friends.

PG-13, 115 Minutes, South Wind 12
Sandra Bullock returned to tomboy detective Gracie Hart in the sequel to the 2000 hit comedy. Surprisingly very different from her previous film, it by no means a stand-out comedy.
What happened to Gracie Hart? She joined a national beauty pageant to try and solve a crime, and ended up winning the runner-up prize as well as snagging her vritain. But now everyone knows her, and after an aborted mission because of her fame, she accepts the job of being "the face of the FBL." Now she is the girly-girl she never wanted to be, but is so caught up in the lifestyle that when her friend, and winner of the beauty pageant, is kidnapped, no one trusts her to solve the case.
Neither particularly interesting nor funny, the best thing about this film is But

lock, who is both watchable and lovable, despite spouting quotes about designers and other *Clueless*-type remarks. With a few exceptions, she is surrounded by annoying characters who you wish would go away, and many of the scenes are obviously trying to be over-flambowy and flashy for no particular reason. But the body of the film is a step away from the first, and unusually there is no love-story — and what replaces it is a female buddy theme between Bullock and her body-guard, Regina King, which actually works quite well. There are some humorous bits, such as Bullock dressing up as an old lady to find information, and her occasional fights with King, but it doesn't hold together well.

Not a bad sequel to a film that wasn't a classic itself, and semi-enjoyable if you've got nothing else to watch.

Born Into Brothels (1/2) R, 86 minutes, Liberty Hall
Winner of last year's Academy Award for Best Documentary, Born Into Brothels is the story of eight young children growing up in the red light district of Calcutta, India. Their condition leaves them little hope for the future. Most of the girls will become prostitutes, and the men drug-addicts. Yet even in the midst of this destitution and filth, the innocent charm of these children rings out.
The film not only documents the lives of these kids, but also allows the audience to see through their eyes. American filmmaker Zana Briski has been teaching these children photography, and armed with their own cameras, they give us a glimpse into their world. They take photos of everything, from their friends to dead dogs or drug dealers. The pictures are amazing, and Briski uses the sale of them to get the children into boarding schools. In these schools, the children will have a future, but many institutions will not accept a student from the red light district.
It is amazing to watch these children cope with suffering around them. Most have no father, and their mothers are abusive. Many of these parents don't want their daughters to leave for school anyway. They see their daughters as another source of income once they become sex workers. But these children find strength in each other and in their photography. At one point Gour, a 13 year old boy, is asked why he would like to be successful in his work. He says with a smile that he would like to save his friend Kochi from becoming a prostitute.
The indomitable optimism of these children is inspiring, but at the same time it is achingly painful to think of what will likely become of them. Briski is able to get many admitted into schools, but their mothers withdraw them after a few months. We never see what ultimately happens to these children, in part because that future is being written right now half a world away. As I left the theater I was faced with the realization that while I could leave this sad tale any time I wanted, that those children in Calcutta could never get away.

Finding Neverland Movie (☆☆☆☆)
DVD (☆☆☆)
The story of Peter Pan has been retold and remade countless times on stage and screen, sometimes with success (2003's Peter Pan, starring Jason Isaacs as Captain Hook) and sometimes with overblown disappointment (Steven Spielberg's Hook). Finding Neverland tells a different and fresh perspective of the Peter Pan story: how playwright J.M. Barrie created Peter Pan based on the inspiration of another family he grew to have close ties with.
Finding Neverland opens with Barrie (Johnny Depp, on some kind of roll) attending the opening of his latest and worst play. The day after, he goes to a local park with his dog and meets the widow Sylvia Davies (Kate Winslet, who had a great year of her own) and her four boys. Barrie is a grown-up with the imagination of a child, and the boys are instantly drawn to him, as is Barrie to the boys and their mother. He starts spending every afternoon with the boys playing games of
PG, 106 minutes.
cowboys and Indians, and pirates. It is from here that Barrie draws his inspiration for his next play about a boy who doesn't want to grow up and a group of children he whisks away to Neverland.
One of the cleverest techniques the filmmakers use is how they seamlessly cut between the pretend world Barrie can see and the real world, depending of the point of view the character has. Depp plays Barrie with wide eyes and boyish wonder, but with wisdom to go along with it and he totally owns his character. Almost every element of Finding Neverland works to perfection, from the acting to storytelling, and it is one of the best movies of last year. The DVD has some solid bonuses features, including commentary by the director and writers, deleted scenes, the usual making-of featurettes and outtakes.

Queens of the Stone Age Lullabies to Paralyze
Attention ladies and gentlemen: bassist Nick Oliveri has left the Queens of the Stone Age.
And it shows.
The band's latest release, Lullabies to Paralyze, is the product of its career of revolving-door lineups and the loss of the mercurial Oliveri, who was one-half of the creative output of the band.
It wasn't always this bad for the Queens. Resurrected from the defunct Kyuss, the Queens debuted with a self-titled album in 1998, but didn't really get on the radar until its woofly underrated 2000 album, R: Restricted to Everyone. Everywhere, All the Time.
Things got exciting for the Queens in 2002 when they became the critic's darlings with Songs for the Deaf, which received considerable attention because of their recruitment of ex-Nirvana's Dave Grohl to play drums. Grohl, whose Nirvana and Foo Fighters' legacy has waned, punctuated the albums refreshingly abrasive, yet precise, hard rock/metal sound. The Queens shift vocals primarily between Homme's slick deadpan musings and Mark Lanegan's guttural, raspy tone. The music itself was delivered mostly on the vehicle of Oliveri's bass and Grohl's drumming, teaming up to make the most infectious rhythm section
in rock since Fugazi.
But now that's all gone. Grohl went back to the Foos and some Nine Inch Nails on the side, and Oliveri left because of internal strife with Homme. Now Homme is on his own, but he can't stand on his own two creative feet without using Oliveri as a crutch.
Lullabies to Paralyze takes the few rare languishing moments from its previous albums and makes an entire album of it. With the exception of a couple occasional minutes in "Everybody Knows That You Are Insane," and "Burn the Witch," there isn't much to keep fans of past albums to long for at least Grohl's return, not to mention that of Oliveri's.
Grade: Cunique sound. Bassist/vocalist Matt Dally even says "it's a cross between Black Eyed Peas and Blink 182;" huh, maybe, if by "cross between" he means "mixed tape of."

Superchick Beauty from Pain
I highly recommend this album...for an eighth grade girls' soccer team to listen to before a game or something, but not for anyone else. Superchick is a Christian "girl" band (the main vocalists are girls, anyway) that "blends" several styles ranging from straight pop, pop-rock, pop-punk and hip-hop. I use the term "blend" loosely because the record is extremely inconsistent in that each song represents a different style completely and characterizes only that style for the particular song. This is opposed to blending the different genres into their own
superchick
Beauty From Pain

The goal is of course (as is that of most Christian rock bands) to rip off popular styles of secular music to get the kids to listen to it and then infuse it with a positive Jesus message, resulting in unoriginal boring music that just makes you just want to listen to the band that they sound like anyway.
Grade: D
Superchick churns out sugary sweet, spunky, energetic pop music with an upbeat message. They do show some musical talent and they would have had a chance at empowering a generation of young girls if it weren't so cheesy. If you want something fun and cute, maybe download "It's On" (from iTunes of course, stealing is bad); that track should sum up the overall feel of the album. In closing, *Beauty and Pain* consists mostly of the latter as it spends most of its time trying to cram a freakin' rainbow up your ass.

E Double Cold in May
Spending those late nights staring at a computer screen, you often drift into dreams of stardom that would take you away from the paper due in hours and school in general. Well, in 2001 four guys who met in Lawrence achieved what many can only dream about with the release of their debut album, From Here To Now. Four years later, E Double is back with their long-overdue sophomore album, Cold in May.
It's evident the band members are from the Midwest. Their vocals give them an edgy country sound, but the music is not country. With up-tempo guitar playing, the sound E Double creates rivals that of Maroon 5 and Ryan Cabrera, a couple of
the artists they have performed with since the release of their debut album.
The vocals harmonize unbelievably well with the music, allowing the listener to hear both at any given time with neither being overpowering. The flow continues from track to track, making it difficult to tell where one ends and the other begins. This ability seems to be taking a back seat to CDs that sound as if they are 12 singles on one disc.
For a person who is not that into rock music, this is one CD that has definitely earned a spot in the CD changer.

Did I hear something? I pause a second and scan the area with my flashlight. The ray of light cuts into the darkness, showing me what the room looks like. Blood covers the walls and I can see several bodies littering the floor. Out of the corner of my eye I see a box of shells for my shotgun sitting by several rounds for my pistol. I put the flashlight away, surrounding myself in total darkness, to load my shotgun. Then I hear the burning sound of a demon straight from Hell. I turn to find the only source of light radiating from the demon itself as it throws fireballs from its claws. I fire at the demon. It screams as my shoot hits the mark. I'm in complete darkness. Should I run? Should I pull out my flashlight and hope I can find the demon
before its claws find me? I shoot randomly in the direction where I last saw it. The flash from the barrel of my gun illuminates the darkness for a millisecond and I see the demon right in front of my face lunging at me. I luck out: My random shot hit it in the face. I hear footsteps. I turn my flashlight back on and from across the room I can see two more imp-demons. Now it's time to run.
Doom 3 is that good. For those console gamers who have been waiting for its release on the Xbox, you won't be disappointed. All the nerve wracking, alone in-the-dark moments have been flawlessly transferred.
Along with this port of the singleplayer game comes a new multiplayer option. You can use system link or Xbox Live in a straight death-match or a cooperative mode.
The only disappointment comes from the co-op. You can't use headsets, so trying to figure out what your partner is doing is like having a conversation with your computer.
Luckily for me, I rented two copies and played with a friend over LAN. After five
Luckily for me, I finished two couple played with a friend over LAN. After minutes of frustration, a primitive signal system of banging flashlights on the ground became a form of communication. It worked for a while until we figured out that dying comes with no consequences except you get all your life back and you leave most of your weapons where you died. Then the game became a run-and-gun race to finish the level.
Even with these flaws, I've never been so freaked out while playing a video game. I've never enjoyed
fighting demons so much and I couldn't ask for a better single-player experience. The multiplayer may be flawed, but the single-player is worth the A+ on its own.

Splinter Cell:
Chaos Theory
Xbox, PS2, Gamecube, PC
Perhaps the age-old developer adage "If it's not broken, don't fix it" should have the phrase "just make it better" added to the end. That seems to be the attitude for sequels more often these days, and Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory is no exception.
Third in the highly successful stealth action franchise, Chaos Theory once again gives players control of special agent Sam Fischer. This time, he's dealing with an international threat resulting from Japan's creation of a new intelligence gathering agency, Global tension ensues.
Anyone who has played the other two Spinner Cell games should know what to expect from the single player campaign. The controls and interface are fairly identical to the second title, with a few minor improvements. Sam's repertoire has also been expanded to include knife moves, environmental attacks, and the ability to switch sides when aiming a weapon.
The game's multiplayer modes continue to expand upon the innovative brand of stealth multiplayer introduced in "Infinite Warfare." The co-op mode that gives players four
unique levels to complete and a slew of cooperative maneuvers to use.
Graphically, the game is at the head of its generation. Beautiful environments and amazing lighting effects meet with astonishing realistic character models to create the most complete graphics package to date.
Unfortunately, Chaos Theory was not created equally for all systems. The PS2 and Gamecube versions are basically neutered clones of the Xbox and PC releases, with reduced graphics, smaller environments and missing gameplay modes.
Regardless, Chaos Theory is simply one of the most impressive stealth action experiences available. Those with the right system are in for a treat.

Confessions of a workaholic
Burned Out
By Anja Winikka, Jayplay writer
Illustration by Scott Drummond
Illustration by Scott Drummond
The burn on my left hand was as big as a doorknob and so large that I wasn't able to fit latex gloves around my blistered palm while I folded scratchy towels at the fitness center. The blistered burn was a constant reminder of the perils of overwork. And folding towels was only one of the four jobs I had that summer.
I was 20 years old, and I didn't have a car. My solution: Stop at nothing to earn enough money to buy one. To me, that meant serving at a wedding reception until 1 a.m., turning around at 8 a.m. and folding towels at the fitness club the next morning, ringing up Osh Kosh overalls in my red Kids "R" Us vest that afternoon, working another dinner party that night and then waking up the next morning to mow a lawn before serving at a 9 a.m. breakfast — day after day after day.
I got the burn the summer before my junior year of college. I was coming off a weekend of three consecutive 14-hour shifts at the Kansas Speedway and a week of double shifts at the banquet hall. It was Saturday morning, and I was mowing a lawn at a house a couple blocks from my
parents. Having gotten a late start and knowing I had to be at the banquet hall in an hour, I was moving fast. The grass hadn't been mowed in what looked like months. After mowing for 40 minutes, I realized that not only was I not going to get done with the neighbor's yard, but if I didn't get a ride home and then to work fast, I was going to be late for my next job. I called my dad and when he pulled up in the VW van in minutes, I was relieved. Great, I thought, I'm going to make it to work and when I get home, I'll finish the lawn. So my dad, graciously going along with my plan, opened up the back of his van and cleared the way to make room for the mower. We lifted the big heavy red mower into the van. I gave it a good push and that was when I screamed. I had placed my left hand on the scorching silver metal portion of the exposed lawn mower motor. The pain was deafening, and I screamed uncontrollably until I had my hand submerged in ice water back home. At the hospital, we found out that I had a second degree burn on my hand. I looked down at the singed, wrinkled white skin in too much pain to respond to this news.
The rest of the day is blurry to me — filled with a drug store visit and heavy painkillers.
I had driven myself into such a physically exhausted state that I literally became unable to operate machinery. There's no reason it should have come to that.
My mom would tell me, "Anja, maybe you're doing too much," to which I would quickly retort, "Well, maybe if you bought me a car, I wouldn't be doing this." Then the conversation would end.
But looking back, I realize it wasn't just wanting a car that had me working at an unrelenting pace. This almost deadly characteristic of mine is part of who I am. And I grew up with a role model for this type of behavior: my dad. He's a software engineer, a small business owner, an Olathe orchestra trombonist, an adult Sunday school teacher, a church elder, an avid runner and marathoner, a husband, a dad and for this year, a foreign exchange student's dad too. No wonder I tend to juggle a lot. When I'm on break and not working at the banquet hall, I feel guilty for not doing something productive. I can't even
sit through a movie without thinking about the homework I could be doing. I simply don't feel right if I'm not busy. It's this little voice inside me that drives me to completely ignore my physical state and keep on working until I get what I want, even if that means lowering the overall quality of my life.
I am taking baby steps to get better. I am a lot more careful now when I'm feeling overworked. And last spring I stopped playing in the KU symphony orchestra, which bought me more than five hours a week. But still, I took 15 hours and worked 35 hours a week last semester.
I guess I'm just one of those people who can't seem to stop and take a breath. But my hope is that next time I'm tempted to work until it kills me, the scar on my hand will remind me that there's more to life than buying a car or graduating with two majors or showing the boss how valuable an employee I am. This is life. It only comes around once. Slow it down.

Dean could return home

KANSAN STAFF WRITER
The dean of liberal arts and sciences will travel to his native state of Michigan at the end of the month. But the short trip could lead to a more permanent stay in the state.
Kim Wilcox is one of five finalists for a provost vacancy at Michigan State University, his alma mater.
C. R. M.
Wilcox said the position was enticing because provost was a step above being dean.
"I'm flattered to be one of five (finalists), but there are also four others who are flattered, so who knows where this will go," Wilcox said.
He will travel to East Lansing, Mich., from April 27-29 for a two-day interview.
The university is also a major research opportunity, said Wilcox, who graduated in 1976.
There he will meet with students, faculty and staff and speak for a 30-
He said he enjoyed his work at the University of Kansas, but he also wanted an opportunity to work in a
minute open forum, he said.
Wilcox said he had mixed emotions about the potential university move.
He nominated Wilcox for the position because it fit different pieces of his background between being from Michigan and his work experience in the state of Kansas, Beggs said.
Beggs has known Wilcox for six and a half years. They met when they worked together on the Board of Regents. He contacted Wilcox before he sent a letter of recommendation to the selection committee, he said.
The college has made a lot of progress in the past three years he has served as dean, but there are still things he'd like to accomplish, he said.
Moving would also bring him closer to his family, which he said was an important reason to consider the position.
higher position.
Wilcox
Beggs said Wilcox's ability to work beyond his scientific academia at a quality university qualified him for the provost position.
Wilcox's 75-year-old mother, his two sisters and several other relatives still live in Michigan.
Wilcox has served as dean of the college since July 2002. Before he became dean, Wilcox served as president and CEO of the Board of Regents from June 1999, to June 2002.
Don Beggs, president of Wichita State, nominated Wilcox for the provost position last fall.
"I personally think he's a good researcher and administrator," Beggs said.
He has been a faculty member at the University for 14 years.

STUDENT RECOGNITION
Awards honor student leaders
BY DANI LITT
dlitt@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITE
Marlesa Roney and Ed Evansole look nothing like Ed McMahon, but they spent the week acting like him.
Gaston Enrique Araoz, Anna Clovis, Jeff Dunlap, Susan Leigh Henry, Ruth Anne French-Hodson, Katie Jensen, Mark Eastman Lyda, Josh E. Meyers, Steve Munch and Katie Wolff all received awards.
Roney, vice provost for student success, and Eversole, associate dean of students, spent the week on prize patrol surprising 10 students with Chancellor's Student Awards.
Awards were presented during one of each of the student's classes. At the presentation, Roney spoke briefly to the class about the student's accomplishments and the award he or she received.
Winners were given letters of congratulations that included an invitation to a reception the Saturday before commencement, an invitation to a luncheon on the Chancellor Robert Hemenway's lawn and details about the award. Award winners also have the opportunity to have their picture taken with the chancellor.
All of the students are seniors except for Munch, who is also student body president. He won the only award that was not limited to seniors.
"It's incredible to be a part of that group of students that have really cared about the University over the years and have worked to help the student body." Munch said.
Munch won the Rusty Leffel Concerned Student Award. The award is presented to one male and one female who show concern for advancing the ideals of the University and higher education.
Katie Wolff, Shawnee senior, also received that award.
There are a total of six Chancellor's Awards. Four awards are given to both a male and a female student, like the Leffel award. Two others are awarded to only one person.
Although candidates must be outstanding to receive an awards, each one has one phrase that the selection committee focuses on. Eversole said.
"We want to try to get the best match with each award," she said.
With a 3.98 grade point average, Meyers has completed physics research at the South Pole and taken graduate courses as an undergraduate.
Meyers received the 1913 Award for his academic accomplishments.
AND THE AWARD GOES TO.
Ten KU students received 2005 Chancellor's Student Awards this week. The awards recognize the students' academic, volunteer and leadership accomplishments during their undergraduate years at the University.

RUSTY LEFFEL CONCERNED
The Rusty Leffel Concerned Student Award
"I was disappointed when I had to come here, but I've had more opportunities here than I would've had elsewhere." he said.
The University was actually not Meyers' first choice when he was deciding where to go to college, but he credits his accomplishments to the good advising and research opportunities he has had here.
Students who apply for the awards are either nominated by a faculty member or administrator or are able to nominate themselves for the award by filling out an application and turning it in to the dean's office.
The committee does not base its decision on whether students nominated themselves or if someone else nominated them.
annually goes to students who demonstrate a concern for furthering the ideals of the University and higher education. The award was established by a group of graduating seniors in 1973 to honor their friend and fellow student Rusty Leffel.

Smith Student Leader Award goes to a graduating senior who is a member of a fraternity or sorority and who has demonstrated commitment to the local chapter, the KU fraternity and sorority community, the University and the Lawrence community. The award was established in 1993 in honor of Smith's dedication and support of the KU fraternity and sorority community during her tenure as dean of student life.
AGNES WRIGHT STRICKLAND AWARD
- Anna Clovis, Fairfax, Okla.
WRIGHT STRICKLAND AWARD The Agnes Wright Strickland awards were established in 1953 in memory of Strickland, a member of the class of 1887. The awards annually go to graduating seniors in recognition of their academic record, demonstrated leadership in matters of university concern, respect among fellow students and Indications of future dedication to service in the University.
♦ Susan Leigh Henry, Fort Scott
The selection committee was composed of 15 people, including three students. The other 12 members are representatives of various units of the University who work with students.

Award recipients receive a certificate, and all but one receive a cash reward from the University of Kansas Endowment Association of $500 to $1,000. The Strickland Award winners receive a lifetime membership to the University of Kansas Alumni Association valued at $1,000.
CAMPUS
"The goal is to have a deep pool," Eversole said. "You always wish you had more awards to give out."
This year, more than 60 students applied for the 10 awards, which was a lot. Eversole said.

Before the results were announced, one of the variables that KUnited was worried about was the third coalition Student Voice, which was running for
the first time.
Student Voice spent much of its campaign saying negative things about KUnited, Sterner said.
"I feel like if Student Voice would have spent as much time serving students as they did negative campaigning it might have turned out better for them," Sterner said.
Sterner and Jones will be sworn in April 27 at a joint senate meeting.
Edited by Austin Caster
"We had the right message this year, but we need the structure to back it up," Chanay said.
During the next year, the coalition will work to become more organized and recruit more members.
"We had about 10 people operating with a budget of about $150," Pollack said. "So we did pretty good for that."
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
Voice
Chanay said the coalition expected to run a full slate of candidates in the next election.
Chanay said students had already contacted him about working with the coalition next year.
Student Voice would also focus on having a better presence among voters. Chanay said the coalition would need to spend more time encouraging
people to vote if it wanted to compete with KUnited and Delta Force.
Despite the loss, Connor said the coalition had fun. He compared the coalition's campaign to an off year for a sports team.
Fees
"If we were a basketball team, this would be a rebuilding year," Connor said.

The other referendum that passed was a $1.50 increase for Legal Services for Students. The organization will use the increase to make its attorney full-time. Previously she was only working three-quarters time. It will also hire a new attorney to specialize in litigation.

Dunlap said students had been asking for high-profile talent such as comedian Jon Stewart and musical acts such as Wilco, and now SUA would be able to provide popular entertainers with increased talent fees.
- A 24-year-old KU student reported to Lawrence police his student parking permit stolen between 5 p.m. April 7 and 9 p.m. April 8 from the 1700 block of Ohio Street. The permit is valued at $40.
Faulconer said the organization usually handled cases related to landlord-tenant issues and alcohol related incidents.
Ryan Faulconer, Colorado Springs, Colo., senior and a member of the LSS advisory board, said that he was a little nervous going into the elections, but had received a good response from the students he talked to.
ON THE RECORD
- A 47-year-old KU Medical Center employee reported to Lawrence police damage to her driver's side window between 11 a.m. April 10 and 12 p.m. April 12 in the 700 block of Illinois Street. The damage is estimated at $300.

EDITORIAL BOARD
Raise hell, Student Senate give students reason to care
Dear winners of Student Senate elections, Congratulations on your success. Without Student Senate, students would not have a voice of their own at the University of Kansas. Unfortunately, your newly won positions carry quite the burden. Not only must you be the student voice for the University, you must do it for a population of students who could care less about Student Senate.
Either students are apathetic because they
Either students are apathe don't feel Senate represents them, or Senate's representation of the student voice makes students apathetic.
But that's not important. What is important, and what the editorial board challenges you to do, is to change it. Pick causes that students want, and work to make real changes. More importantly, don't be afraid to raise hell if that's what it takes to show students you
care and make the administration listen.
There are plenty of causes you hear students complaining about without Senate rallying behind the causes. There are not enough basketball courts on campus. There weren't at Robinson and there aren't now at the new Student Recreation Fitness Center.
Where are the angry senators?
Senate may be getting more for the rec center in three years, but that's not good enough. A plan like that doesn't get students behind Senate, and it shows students that senators aren't willing to try hard to make changes.
Our campus can't accommodate students with disabilities everywhere. We're not even
up to the standards of the Americans with Disabilities Act. For instance, a disabled DJ can't work at KIHK's studio.
Where are the angry senators?
If that's not a cause that Student Senate can make an immediate and vocal challenge to the administration, I don't know what is.
Student Senate needs to combat students' apathy toward it by standing for issues that make a difference, instead of cop out coalition platforms.
Tuition's going up, deans are trying to raise it even more, the state's cutting funding and parking passes are getting more expen-
Where are the angry senators?
Passing initiatives and having discussions with administrators isn't enough. We need senators who aren't afraid to get loud and show the University that students don't want higher prices. Without that, we won't care what Senate does.
The student voice can't
always get what it wants and sometimes senators must make compromises. But if senators won't go down kicking and screaming, students won't care.
Picking issues like Chipotle in the Underground, recycling on campus and things that will pass anyway as campaign issues turns off students. The coalitions did have some good ideas, but as of now, they're just ideas.
If Student Senate can rally behind the concerns of students, and be strong enough and loud enough, students might just rally behind them.
John Jordan writing for the editorial board.
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Article lacks journalistic integrity; shows one side to conflict
For the students who did not attend the speech by chief of staff for Israeli Finance Minister Benjamin Netanyahu Yehiel Leiter on Tuesday night at the Robert J. Dole Institute for Politics, I'd like to address the one-sided coverage of the event in The University Daily Kansan. First of all, in describing the crowd in attendance, the writer left out those people who attended the event to hear an opinion contrary to the speaker's. While the Kansan pointed out that the crowd was quite friendly, applauding in sections, there was also a portion of that crowd who was respectful and tolerant, while critical of the speaker's views.
Those students in attendance who did not agree with Leiter's views took particular offense to Leiter's characterization of Palestinians and Arabs. He described a Palestinian society that glorified terrorism and a Palestinian government that encouraged violence and intolerance. He described the process of indoctrination of Palestinian youth that creates a culture ripe for terrorism. I have to wonder whether this message was also a form of indoctrination.
Attempting to sell this view of the Palestinians to the audience, his insistence that Arafat was a terrorist and a dictator, should be debated.
Moreover, his speech was never critical of Israeli policies that might also be a cause for this culture of violence in the occupied Palestinian territories.
To conclude, it is the responsibility of journalists to ensure that fair coverage is given to all events, but especially a contentious event such as this one. Thus, to protect the journalistic integrity of this paper, both sides need to be presented.
Lauren Prather Political science and French junior Lee's Summit, Mo.
Editorial board's endorsement for Student Senate unqualified
Why does The University Daily Kansan editorial board choose to endorse Student Senate coalitions? Even though the editorial board changes every semester, it attempts to judge the continuity and ability of coalitions that have existed for years. Mind you, the editorial staff holds no particular expertise in Student Senate or what makes a university work. But still the Kansan presumes to know what is best for all students.
For instance, the Kansan has endorsed Delta Force eight out of the past nine years. Delta Force has lost seven of the eight prior times it was endorsed. This clearly shows that those doing the endorsing are not those doing the voting. Make no mistake, the editorial board of the Kansan in no way reflects the will of the student body. Why does the Kansan even make the effort anymore?
The Kansan, in a move that should be celebrated for its bravery, has once again chosen to endorse Delta Force. What criteria does the Kansan use? A track record of failure? Good at printing platforms but lousy at passing programs? A lack of experience and initiative? The Kansan is as qualified to endorse a coalition as it is to play Jayhawk basketball. It continues to endore losers even as the students keep picking winners
A university newspaper should exist to educate students about election issues. It should not patronize students by telling them how to vote.

Embrace natural beauty; don't conform to standard
"I was unique in that I was a kind of black that white people could accept. I was their daydream. I had the worst kind of acceptance because it was never for how great I was or what I contributed — it was because of the way I looked." — Lena Horne
10
TIERRA SCOTT
(tscott@kansan.com)
Now with Horne's quote in mind, try this at home: Watch several MTV, VH1 or BET music videos and shows such as "America's Next Top Model" or "The Miss USA Pageant." Look for African American women in those programs. What do you see? What do you not see? There is a strong possibility that you will primarily see women who have light skin and other features that conform to European beauty standards.
In the African-American community, lighter skin has always been preferred over darker skin. That preference can be traced back to the antebellum United States. During slavery, there were two types of slaves: house slaves and field slaves. The lighter-skinned slaves made up the majority of the house slave population. Their duties involved housekeeping, cooking and taking care of the master's family. Often they were literally part of that family. They were the "illegitimate" offspring of white male slaveowners and black female slaves. Light skin represented power and influence, and that representation would continue into the 20th century.
The darker-skinned slaves, who worked in the fields, were treated more harshly than the house slaves and did not possess the power and influence of their house slave counterparts. The field slaves' duties were more tedious than the house slaves' duties. The field slaves were forced to work on the plantations for long hours underneath the scorching sun.
It was a situation that, in the years following the abolition of slavery, would result in what is known as "the color complex." The conflict, within the African-American community, is over skin color gradations. Current beauty standards in the United States have created a culture focused on
the unachievable. For American women in general, and African-American women in particular, that focus too often has resulted in self-hatred.
Looking at music videos and mainstream models, it is obvious what type of look is highly regarded. Typically,
women on television are extremely thin with light skin and long, flowing hair. People think that a size zero through four is skinny. Looking at popculture examples, however, any size bigger than a four or six is too big. In general, women want the Barbie-doll look. That is the unachievable culture.
Young women across the world see these thin images and go to extremes to mimic the women they idolize. Women begin to hate themselves and become anorexic or bulimic because they do not fit into the beauty standards. The more wealthy women go through numerous plastic surgeries and tummy tucks to get that ideal body. In general, women alter themselves in many ways to have the "in" look. Although they may gain beauty, they lose their identities.
The media are progressing. Blacks are slowly becoming more common in mainstream American media, and black features are becoming more popular. People are tanning for that perfect caramel complexion and getting collagen placed in their lips and hips.
While women may think they're enhancing their beauty, they'll soon look in the mirror, and they won't recognize themselves anymore, physically or mentally.
As for media standards now, Barbie is still in. In the meantime, women of all colors, shapes and sizes: Embrace your beauty. Do not let the media dictate to you what is and what is not beautiful. To all black women: Black is beautiful whether you are light as ivory or dark as ebony. Embrace your natural beauty even if it is not what you see on television.

Anime mania comes to Kansas Union
CLUBS
BY NEH MULKA
nmulka@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
The KU Anime club is hosting Nakau-Kan, an anime convention, at noon, Sunday on the fifth floor of the Kansas Union.
The Kansas Union might soon be full of people dressed up as Japanese cartoon characters.
Anime — also known as 'Japanamation' — are Japanese cartoons characterized by futuristic themes, robot-like characters and colorful imagery.
Naka is the Japanese word for "middle" and Kon is short for convention, said Brian Smith, KU Anime club president and Bonner Springs senior.
The purpose of the convention is to get everyone from the University of Kansas and Lawrence interested in anime in the same room, said Kristina Dobbs, Atchison senior and KU Anime club vice president.
"We want to bring in people who are interested and meet people like themselves." Dobbs said.
EAGLE RUN
The event will include a viewing of about 10 recently released
anime titles and music videos.
As with most anime conventions the costume contest will be the most popular aspect of the event, Smith said.
"It's always the biggest event at an anime convention," Smith said. "People like to show off how they make them."
Winner of the contest will receive a plush Grunty, a character from the anime "hack//Sign," pronounced "Dot Hack Sign."
Inuyasha, Naruto and Dragon Ball Z characters are usually the most popular characters during costume contests.
A karaoke room will be set up for participants to sing along to Japanese pop music and anime
The KU Anime club is expecting members from similar clubs at Kansas State and Emporia State to attend the convention, Dobbs said.
show tunes.
There will also be a manga — Japanese comics — drawing workshop and a video game competition.
Anime has been surging into the mainstream with the popularity of Pokemon and DragonBall in the late '90s
The Cartoon Network features anime daily on "Toonami" and "Adult Swim."
More recently, full-length anime movies such as "Cowboy Bebop" and "Ghost in the Shell" have played in mainstream theaters.
Liberty Hall Video, 642 Massachusetts St., has some anime on VHS but wants to build it up on DVD, said Doug Redding, manger of the video section.
Redding wants to attend the convention to get insight on what's popular with the anime crowd, which he describes as a selective group of people.
FOR MORE
A complete schedule of showtimes can be found online at kansan.com
"I'm basically looking for the top anime collections," Redding said. "I'm trying to cherry-pick the best."
Smith is expecting 300 people to attend the convention.
As of Wednesday, about 100 people have already preregistered via the KU Anime Club's Web site, kuantimeclub.com. The event is open to the public and is free. Anyone interested in attending the convention can either pre-register at the site or show up at the event.

World Expo to have international flavor
International Student Association and the International Student Scholar Services will hold the World Expo and Fashion Show and the Festival of Nations this afternoon.
More than 60 countries have signed up for the World Expo and Fashion Show, which will be held from noon to 5 p.m. in the Kansas Union Ballroom and Parlors.
Each country will have a table set up where all students can come to learn about different countries and cultures, sample food and check out the
different types of clothing.
"It's just amazing how much diversity we have on campus, but you never get to see it all in one place like at the World Expo," said Joe Potts, ISSS director.
Following the expo, students are welcomed to come celebrate the 53rd annual Festival of Nations also held in the Kansas Union Ballroom.
Estuardo Garcia
The festival will showcase the many artistic talents from KU students from around the world.
They will perform traditional music, dance and songs of their countries.
The festival will begin at 7 p.m.
Smoking ban case to be decided today
LAWRENCE
The first legal challenge to the city's smoking ban will be decided today in Douglas County municipal court.
Dennis Steffes, owner of Last Call, 729 New Hampshire St., and Coyote's night club, 1003 E. 23rd St., has challenged five citations issued to him for violating the city's smoking ordinance.
Steffes and his attorney have argued that Kansas state law pre-empts the city's smoking ban. They have also argued that the wording of the ordinance is unconstitutionally vague. The vagueness of a law
is based on elementary notions of fairness, said Richard Levy, professor in the School of Law. It is unfair to penalize someone for conduct he did not know was illegal, he said. Steffes and his attorney, Bill Rork, were unavailable for comment.
In an interview after the case was filed in February, Steffes said the smoking ordinance did not clearly define how the ban was supposed to be enforced. He did not think his bars were violating the ordinance when he received citations, Steffes said.
The city has argued that the ordinance is not pre-empted by state law and that the terms of the ordinance are clear, said David Corliss, director of legal
services for the city. Judge Randy McGrath was expected to make a decision on the case today at about 8 a.m., according to Douglas County municipal court.
If McGrath rules in favor of Steffes, it would be up to the court to interpret what parts of the law are valid or invalid.
The court could invalidate the entire ordinance or it could just reinterpret the scope of the ban, Levy said.
If any part of the ordinance is invalidated by the court, the city could attempt to redraft it and avoid the problems, he said.
Corliss said he expected McGrath to make his decision without hearing oral arguments.

Jayhawks to face Bears

Kansas prepares to take on No. 12 Baylor in a three-game series opener tonight at Hoglund Ballpark.
The last Big 12 Conference home series for the Jayhawks (24-15, 3-6 Big 12) was Easter weekend. The Jayhawks could use a home field advantage because it must face a multitalented Baylor club.
"I just wish it wasn't against someone in the top 15," Coach Ritch Price said about returning home for a Big 12 series. "It's an exciting time for us, we're a couple series away. If we can win back-to-back series, we put ourselves right back to the middle of the pack."
The Bears (22-13, 9-3 Big 12) enter tonight's match-up after a 2-0 loss to Texas-Arlington.
Held to just four hits against the Mavericks, the Bears offense never got off the ground. Baylor hits .265 as a club, and the Kansas lineup sits at .304.
Junior infielder Zach Dillon led the Baylor offense in the loss, collecting two of the team's four hits on the day.
Dillon leads the team with a .329 batting average and has 19 RBI this season.
Senior catcher Josh Ford remains consistent as he enters the game on an 11-game hitting streak. He has also reached base safely 34 of Baylor's 35 games in 2005.
Ford leads the Bears with 25
RBI and is hitting .309.
The Jayhawks offensive power dipped in their last game at Wichita State. The team was outhit 12-5 and struckout 12 times in an unusual performance for a club that consistently hits better than .300.

Senior infielder Andy Scholl scored Kansas' only run on Wednesday. His solo home run off of Shocker ace Mike Pelfrey boosted his batting average to .273 and gave him RBI number 20.
Co-Big 12 player of the week Gus Milner remains atop the Jayhawk starters with a .341 average. The junior outfielder has driven in 30 runs this season.
Junior outfielder Matt Baty had one of the five hits Kansas scraped together in their last outing. Baty is hitting 327 and has scored 32 runs in 2005.

Senior Wayne Simien took advantage of the Men's Basketball Awards Ceremony to tell a few anecdotes about his fellow seniors that he didn't bring up during Senior Night. "Our freshman year we almost burnt down the Jayhawk Towers trying to make pork chops," Simien said about senior Aaron Miles. Miles took home the Cedric Hunter/Jacques Vaughn Assists Award, which coach Bill Self said could be changed in his name next year. Simien received the most awards with three, including the Dr. Forrest C. Phog Allen MVP Award last night at the Lied Center.

An alumni game will begin at 1 p.m. as former Jayhawk standouts Dana Stubblefield and Don Davis will be honorary coaches for the two alumni teams. This is the second time an alumni game has been held. Stubblefield played 11 seasons in the NFL at defensive end for San Francisco, Washington and Oakland. Davis is currently a member of the New England Patriots. Players for the alumni team are likely to include Don Fambrough, Bobby Douglas and David Lawrence among others.
The game will give fans the opportunity to see junior college newcomers that have been practicing with the team throughout the spring, including linebacker Eric Washington, wide receiver Brian Murph and defensive tackle Wayne Wilder.

The game will also feature freshmen who did not see any action during last year's season. Wide receiver Marcus Herford and running back Gary Green are vying for playing time next season.
Fox Sports Net is expected to be at Memorial Stadium. The network is producing a 30-minute spring game special that will be shown throughout the summer, according to the Kansas Athletics Department.
"Saturday will be a lot of fun for KU football fans," coach Mark Mangino said. "They will have the opportunity to watch the 2005 team scrimmage and see their favorite players from the past perform in Memorial Stadium."

Football team needs spring fans
43,600. No, that's not the number of times it would take you to drive back and forth from Lawrence to Kansas City for the Royals to win the pennant. It was the attendance at Texas A&M's spring game last weekend.
Kansas football fans should look at that number and be as ashamed. Last year's spring game was probably not even a quarter of that number. And that was just a few months removed from a Kansas bowl appearance.
The team returns two first team Associated Press All-Big 12 selections: junior linebacker Nick Reid and sophomore cornerback Charles Gordon.
Nebraska drew more than 60,000 for its spring game last year.
There will be plenty for football fans to see and do. It's the first opportunity to see what the team will look like next season. The expectations seem to be high for that season. For the first time in the Big 12's existence, the Jayhawks have a legitimate chance to take home the Big 12 North title.
Certainly Kansas football is not on the same level as Nebraska and Texas A&M in tradition, but if Jayhawk fans want to start moving up in the Big 12 football standings, they are going to need to start supporting their team. It all begins tomorrow at Memorial Stadium.
Freshman Marcus Herford will show his talent. Fans can see what kind of threat he will be next season as a wide receiver. He brings great hands and athleticism to the table.
The speedy Gary Green and the hard-nosed Clark Green will compete for the running back job, created when John Randle was dismissed from the team. Gary Green is sure to flash past someone, something the Jayhawks will need going into the Jayhawks' season opener Sept. 3.
And of course, the defense that improved mightly last season will be on the field as well. The junior college additions who may be starters by the time the season begins will be auditioning for their jobs. Junior defensive end fernial Ashley and sophomore defensive end Charleton Keith will cause fits for the offensive line. They appear to be moving much quicker than they did at the end of last season.
Gordon will be there as he prepares for an encore to last year's tremendous season. Can he eclipse the seven interceptions he had last year? Will Reid jump to the top of the Big 12 Conference in tackles?
Tomorrow you will see the additions that have been made to the defense, particularly at the linebacker position. There's an opening there created by Gabriel Toomey's offseason departure. Eric Washington is certainly a transfer that should be watched at the linebacker position. Defensive tackle Wayne Wilder has the size to clog up the running lanes and could make some noise.

Sophomores Amanda Costner and Jill Womble, freshman Annie Giangrosso and juniors Chelsey Pryor, Tiffany Woods and Meredith Winkelmann will compete to qualify for the Lawrence Futures Golf Classic, a tournament put on by the Futures Tour.
The Futures Tour is the official developmental tour of the
LPGA and is comprised of 144 professional women golfers. It is similar to the Nationwide Tour for the PGA. This is the first year it will hold an event in Lawrence.
The qualifier will be April 17th at Eagle Bend Golf Course, 1250 E.902 Road. Each participant will play 18 holes, and only the golfer with the best score will move on to play in the main event. Kansas State will send four of its top play ers as well.
Womble said her team's knowledge of the course would be an advantage.
"We're feeling pretty strong after coming off of a good tournament," she said.
The qualifier will have the opportunity to compete in the 54-hole tournament on May 6-8, which will also be held at Eagle Bend Golf Course. The field will be cut after 36 holes, and the total purse is $70,000, with first place receiving $9,800.
As amateurs, none of the Jayhawks can win the money. But for them, the tournament isn't about that.
"It will be a good experience," said Giangrosso. "We will probably play against some people we usually don't play against."

The Kansas softball has won three in a row after defeating Southwest Missouri State yesterday, 6-0. Christina Ross, freshman pitcher, pitched a complete-game shutout.
"Christina really pitched well and hit her spots," Kansas coach Tracy Bunge said. "She was in command the whole game and had a perfect game going into the sixth."
Ross finished the game allowing two hits, striking out six and giving up no walks. It was her second complete-game shutout, improving her overall record to 7-5.
Jessica Moppin, junior second baseman, ignited the Jayhawks offense with a solo home run in the first inning. The hit was her sixth home run of the year.
The team scored two runs in the fifth after Nettie Fierros, junior third baseman, knocked in two runs with a double off the center field wall.
"Nettie Fierros is on a hot streak," Bunge said. "She was on the ball hard every time she was up. And she is as good as anybody when she is hot."
Bunge said she was pleased with Ferros's progress.

improvement.
"We left nine runners on base, and quite a few of them were in scoring position," she said.
With the victory, the Jayhawks hope to carry the winning streak into the weekend in a two-game series against No. 8 Baylor.
Baylor lost a tough game to Texas on Wednesday, 1-0, facing Longhorn Olympic pitcher Cat Osterman. Before losing to Texas, Baylor had a four-game winning streak.
The Jayhawks are now 19-16 overall and 2-5 in the Big 12 Conference.
Bunge said success this weekend would begin with pitching, and keeping the Bears off the bases would be essential.
"Baylor is probably the fastest team in the conference," she said.

Moyer pitched seven strong innings for his 12th victory in 20 career decisions against the Royals as the Mariners completed a three-game sweep with a 10-2 win yesterday.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. Jamie Moyer doesn't want his Seattle Mariners teammates getting too excited after sweeping the Kansas City Rovals.
BASEBALL
"We've played eight games," he said. "It's something to work off of and build off of, but it's a long season."
With the win, Seattle already matched the number of road sweeps it had all last season while going 25-55 away from home. And the Mariners' team ERA is an impressive 3.33.
"We're excited," said Richie Sexson, who had an RBI double and a two-run homer.
"This is a great series for us, a great way to start a road trip."
The Royals, who scored only five runs in the series, are getting consistent production only from Mike Sweeney.
Jeremy Reed had a three-run double in the six-run fourth for the Mariners,who hadn't swept in Kansas City since Sept. 6-8,2002.
"We got good pitching and we got some big hits," manager Mike Hargrove said. "You combine all those, usually you come out on the good side."
Moyer (2-0) gave up nine hits and two runs, with four strikeouts and one walk.

John Randle, a former KU football player, is scheduled to stand trial for battery this summer.
Former KU player to stand trial for battery charges
The trial is scheduled to begin June 8.
Randle was arrested March 13 after a police officer witnessed a fight outside It's Brother's Bar and Grill, 1105 Massachusetts St.
Randle's attorney, Trey Meyer, is planning to file a motion to suppress statements Randle made before he was read his rights on the night of the incident.
Coach Mark Mangino dismissed Randle from the football team after he was arrested.
Randle was previously arrested in November 2003 on charges of domestic battery. In April 2004, he also served two days in jail for charges of attempted theft, disorderly conduct and possession of a fake driver's license.
Randle is currently out of jail on a $1,000 bond.

Fans welcome ex-Expos to Washington
BY HOWARD FENDRICH THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — It didn't take long for this troupe of ex-Expos to figure out they weren't in Montreal anymore.
There was the sellout crowd of 45,596, jumping in place to celebrate each of the Washington Nationals' runs in a 5-3 victory over the Arizona Diamondbacks last night, making ol' RFK Stadium sway like it hadn't for
baseball in 34 years. There were the fireworks, before and after the game, and first place in the NL East.
President Bush walked into the Nationals' clubhouse before throwing out the ceremonial first pitch. He shook hands with each player and stopped at veteran reliever Joey Eisen.
And then there was the visit from the Commander in Chief.
"Eischen, right?" said Bush, a former owner of the Texas
"He remembered trading me," Eischen said, his eyes wide. "That was pretty cool. I was some Single-A punk he got rid of to get a major league pitcher. It was gratifying."
Rangers.
The whole evening just got better and better for the Nationals and their new fans, decked out in a sea of red caps with the same cursive "W" the Senators wore before leaving for Texas in 1971.
Honestly, it was more than I expected. They lived and died with every pitch," left fielder Brad Wilkerson said. "You know it's going to be a great place to play."
Baseball is all about getting home, and this was an all-day celebration of a team longing for stability and a city yearning for a tenant. The District lost two teams to other cities.
"It was amazing to see.
Baseball fans in Washington hadn't been able to root, root, root for the home team in more
than 12,000 days. And they made up for yesterday.
They applauded the local high school band that opened the pregame ceremony about 1 1/2 hours before the first pitch. They applauded the high notes in the national anthem. And the flyover by military jets. And the introductions of everyone associated with the Nationals, right down to the assistant clubhouse manager.

Even the visitors took note of the raucous support.
"Us, as players, we're excited not to be playing in Montreal," Arizona outfielder Luis Gonzalez said. "We had what 40,000 or 50,000 people tonight? If we had been there, they'd have had 2,000."

"Their pitching numbers are phenomenal. To pitch against metal bats and to have played over 30 games and have that ERA is just phenomenal," Price said.
Despite their No.12 rank
ing, the Bears have flaws, and Price said the Jayhawks intended to expose them this weekend.
"We've got a series at home against a top-15 team in the country, but if we pitch and give our team an opportunity to win, I like our chances," Price said.
The Jayhawks will take those chances starting at 7 tonight.

Coming out of tomorrow's game, one quarterback may emerge as the front runner to take the starting job. Will it be junior Jason Swanson? Sophomore Adam Barmann? Or maybe even junior Brian Luke? Certainly, those three individuals will do their best to impress coaches, and fans, in their quest for the starting job.
The transitions on the offensive line, including Todd
Hasselhorst moving to center, will be significant.
The fact of the matter is that the players need to see your support. Don't wait until the season opener in September. These players are working out now and need to know that the student body is behind them.
Show the team that you appreciate the drills they have gone through for the past month during practices.

Junior guard Jeff Hawkins received the Ted Owens Defensive Player of the Year Award, and freshman forward Sasha Kaun was the recipient of the Clyde Lovellette Most Improved Player Award.
"This is one of the best awards, because it was voted on by my teammates, the people that I love," Simien said of the MVP award.
Chancellor Robert Hemenway applauded the seniors, who will all graduate in May, for their achievements on and off the court.
The seniors' work in the classroom was recognized by more than just University officials.
"I had been trying to recruit a young man who scored perfect on his SATs and perfect on his

Hemenway said he found out today that the student decided to go to the University because he idolized the four seniors.

"I promised my mom that I would graduate," Langford said. "But of course I have some basketball things scheduled. I am going to work out with the Rockets next week and take them one thing at a time."

"Things are crazy right now." Miles said. "It is a lot harder than the season because I have to go to

Simien, who chose well-known agent Leigh Steinberg, said he planned to attend the NBA draft in New York this summer.
Self said he has talked to several NBA general managers about the possibility of Langford and Miles getting drafted.
"The last GM I talked to said he thought both of them would get drafted," Self said. "The word on Aaron is that he is a second-round pick. The word on Keith is that he is a high second-round pick, but he could play his way to a low first-round pick."
◆ For the next couple of weeks, Self said he would be busy recruiting. He said he would take only two days off from recruiting between now and May 1.
THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
"These young kids are going to be terrific," Self said. "It's hard to know what you need when you haven't even seen the new guys yet. But we are looking to recruit a big guy and a wing man."

An Evening With Madame F
Sunday April 17,4pm Lawrence Jewish Community Center 9th and Iowa
9th and Iowa
This is a work of theatre with music conceived by Claudia Stevens for her one woman performance as pianist/ singer/actor. The piece explores the life and death experience of music performance in concentration camps drawing upon survivor accounts, including that of Fania Fenelon, who performed in the women's orchestra at Auschwitz until her deportation to Bergen Belsen. An evening with Madam F was commissioned for Yom Hashoah by Richard Jewish Federation and has been presented in numerous performances throughout the US.
Sponsored by The Lindebaum Lecture Series and KU Hillel. This event is free of charge and open to the public.

TRACK AND FIELD
Border Showdown sends alumni running
By PATRUCK SHEHAN
pshehan@kansan.com
KANSAN SPORTWRITER
The Kansas track and field team will continue the Border Showdown this weekend as it travels to Columbia, Mo., for the Tom Botts Invitational.
Kansas, Iowa State Southwest Missouri State and Iowa will participate at the Missouri-hosted event.
The projected highlight of this weekend's meet will be the 800-meter run. Former Jayhawk Charlie Gruber will race former Tiger Derrick
Mlms
Peterson.
Both competed in the Olympic trials last year.
While Gruber went to the Olympic games in the 1500-meter run, Peterson placed third in
the Olympic trials. The border rivalry will continue as the stars race along current Jayhawk Jeremy Mims and Tigers Marcus Mayes and Jimmie Jones. Mayes ranks sixth in the
Big 12 Conference in the 800, and Jones ranks 16th. Mims has yet to run the 800 during the outdoor season.
As much as the Border Showdown matters to both universities, Mims said he was focused on the bigger picture of relays.
"There's going to be good competition. It's going to prepare us for the end of the season, the conference meet and nationals," he said. "The relays are just a bonus. You get to do these meets. You have to be there, but they're fun too. It's like a treat and a meet. You
"I's like a treat and a meet. You
want to beat everyone every time you're out there, but you have fun doing it.

Senior runner
want to beat everyone every time you're out there, but you have fun doing it."
Although the rivalry underlies the meet for both teams, coach Stanley Redwine said the meet would have a different purpose.
After five finishes in the top 10 at the Texas Relays, the Jayhawks will try to home their skills against Big 12 foes.
"This week we're looking for athletes to do well in individual events," Redwine said. "Last week with the Texas Relays and the meet in Emporia, they were relay oriented."
The Tom Botts Invitational comes a week before the Kansas Relays, but stands out
because it doesn't focus on relays.
"It's a great opportunity to compete well this weekend as we go into our relays next weekend, and there will be great competition," Redwine said. "Hopefully at the end of the year this meet will help us."
Earlier this year at the Indoor Championships, Kansas fell two places behind Missouri on the men's side, ranking eighth. On the women's side, the Jayhawks fell right behind the Tigers, ranking seventh.

PROFILE
Golfer stays positive, improves game
BY TIM HALL
hall@kansan.com
KANSAN SPORTWRITER
You haven't seen Jason Sigler's name in a stat line for many Kansas men's golf tournaments this season, but you can find him at practice every day. The Leavenworth junior has played in one golf tournament this season, but he is putting in just as much work as his teammates to improve his game.
As a freshman in 2002, Sigler played in six tournaments. During the 2002-03 season he held a stroke average of 75.6. He played his best tournament of his career at the 2002 Missouri Bluffs Classic, shooting a three-round total of 220. He recorded the highest finish of his career, a tie for 23rd place, at the 2002 Kansas
Invitational. Sigler also qualified for the prestigious 2002 Kansas State Amateur championship.
Sigler's career as a Kansas golfer looked promising after his freshman year, when he gained tournament experience six times. But ever since the 2002-03 season, Sigler has played in only two tournaments. During his sophomore year, he suffered a golfing slump.
"I was struggling just to keep the ball on the course, and I got really frustrated at times with my game," Sigler said. "You start putting pressure on yourself, and you think you're getting better, and you really get worse."
Sigler played in one golf tournament his sophomore season, the Kansas Invitational. He struggled, shooting a three-round score of
242 and tying for 85rd. Even when Sigler was facing his sophomore slump, he kept an optimistic attitude and continued practicing. Now, at the end of his junior year, his game is getting closer to where it was two years ago.
In the fall of 2004, Sigler played in the Kansas Invitational for the third- straight year and finished with a three-round total of 225, tying for 31st. Although Sigler didn't play in any of the team's spring tournaments, he suffered a number of near misses in the qualifying rounds. Still, Sigler said his spirits were high.
"I think I'm close, and I feel really good about where I'm going." Sigler said. "I got a lot of confidence back playing in the Kansas Invitational, and that really helped me."
Besides displaying a good
work ethic, Sigler has one of the best personalities around, said sophomore Tyler Docking.
"He's just awesome to hang out with off of the golf course, and he respects everybody," Docking said. "He works harder than anyone out here."
With one year left after this season, Sigler will spend every minute of his free time on the golf course, improving his game so he can finish strong in his senior year, he said.
"You look at some of the guys on our team like Kevin Ward who didn't play a lot in his early years, and now he's one of the best players in the country," Sigler said. "Luke Trammell is another guy who has gotten a chance to play lately, and he's been great. It gives me inspiration to play better."

Jancita Warrington, Keshena, Wisc., graduate student, wrapped purple duct tape around her orange beaded moccasins to keep them on her feet and tied purple leggings around her calves.
She accented her outfit with jewelry that was unique to her tribe.
Warrington competed in the Women's Northern Traditional dance Saturday night.
She said she had attended pow wows since she was able to walk.
During the course of a year she competed in as many as 30 and has won several awards singing and dancing.
Last year she won an Iron Woman award for solo singing, a star quilt and $500 in prize money.
Saturday night's pow wow attracted a record-breaking crowd of more than 1,500 to Robinson Center where Warrington and the other dancers competed in 13 different categories of dance, ranging from the fast-paced, contemporary dances, to the slower, more distinguished traditionals.
The audience stood up and danced to the rhythmical sound that filled the gymnasium.
Haskell's color guard and all competing dancers were featured in the entrance.

Smoking ban survives case
Judge rebuffs bar owner's argument
BY JASON SHAD
jshaad@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
After a municipal court case Friday, the city's smoking ban remained intact. Municipal Court Judge Randy McGrath ruled against arguments that the city's smoking ordinance was unconstitutionally vague and pre-empted by state law.
The case involved Dennis Steffes, owner of Last Call, 729 New Hampshire St. and Coyote's night club. 1003 E. 23rd St.
Steffes was cited for five separate violations of the city's smoking ordinance.
Steffes and his attorney, Billy Rork, contested the five violations and the constitutionality of the ordinance, claiming that its wording on how the ordinance was supposed to be enforced was too vague. They also argued the ordinance attempted to pre-empt state laws regulating smoking.
McGrath ruled the ordinance did not pre-empt state law because the state law allowed for local governments to create statutes limiting smoking so long as they were as strict as state law.
The vagueness argument was a closer call. McGrath said. But after reviewing the smoking policies at Steffes' bars, and letters sent to bar owners from Fire Marshal Rich Barr, McGrath
"I the bar's no smoking policy seemed like it clearly understood the ordinance. By his own July 1 smoking policy in his bars, I think he understood the ordinance."
Randy McGrath Municipal court judge
ruled it was clear what the ordinance required of bars and restaurants.
"The bar's no smoking policy seemed like it clearly understood the ordinance," McGrath said. "By his own July 1 smoking policy in his bars, I think he understood the ordinance."
Although McGrath maintained the validity of the ordinance, he dropped four of the five violations cited against Steffes.
In four of the five cases there was not enough evidence to prove that Steffes' employees were not enforcing the ordinance.

Americans in low numbers at world culture festival

KANSAST Writer
Dancing with five wine bottles on your head to Paraguayan polka music takes practice. Maria Ullon, Asuncion, Paraguay, graduate student, spent a week practicing before she performed the Balle de las botellas, or the dance of the bottles, Friday night for the Festival of Nations.
Dressed in her blue Polleron, a ruffled blue skirt, Ullon, danced in front of more than 100 people at the Kansas Ballroom in the Kansas Union.
The dance is a traditional Paraguyan dance that can take years to master. Ullon has been performing the dance since she was 15,
The dance ended the International Students Association and International Student Scholars Services' 53rd annual festival.
The festival, which featured performances from nine different countries, gave KU students an opportunity to travel the globe from inside the Kansas Union.
to the 25 states of India. Their performance showed how much variety of culture can be found even in one country.
Japanese students started the festival with the thunderous sound of Taiko drums. From there students were moved from country to country through the festival's performances, getting a small taste of each country's rich culture.
Justina Patterson, Pittsburg sophomore, said it was a great opportunity to experience different cultures. As a Latin American studies major, she was particularly interested in the performances from Bolivia, Peru and Paraguay.
While there were many different countries represented, there was one major country that lacked in attendance.
The performers themselves not only educated the audience about their customs but also learned about other countries' practices.
Maneesha Arashanapalli, graduate student from Andhra Pradesh, India, said she learned about Bolivian culture, which was a culture she had never experienced before.
Arashanapalli and 22 other students from India performed a song, each singing in the different languages native
Few American students took part in the festival.
The lack of attendance from domestic students is a problem ISA has always dealt with, Juan Araoz, ISA president, said.
The La Paz, Bolivia, senior said most American students think they have to be from another country in order to participate in international activities, this is not true. American students are also welcome to join the international group.
Festival of Nations followed the World Expo, which took place earlier that day.
Featured at the expo was informational booths for more than 60 countries.
Both events had record attendance, Araoz said.

K United lost 11 of the 14 seats in the junior/senior

Sterner and the rest of the coalition quickly came down from their highs and realized that senators who had served on Student Senate for years would not return for the 2005-2006 school year.
"The junior/senior CLAS people are definitely the hardest to get to," Sterner said. "You can't go to residence halls to talk to them or other places on

"We prepared for both." Sterner said. "The

He had been a member of Student Senate for three years and had played a key role in bringing wireless Internet to

Arthur Jones, Dallas junior, said he could have done more for his individual campaign but felt that the victory for his sister, Marynell, was more important.
Sterner said he was pleased with all other aspects of the election but would like to have official on-campus polling sites again. Sterner said the polling sites would have helped because not everyone on campus knew the election was going on.
"We knew we had to be extra visible this year because there were no polling sites," Sterner said. "We had to campaign harder and really get our message across because of that."

"It happily reminds me of an old Korean legend, which views cranes as symbols of nobility, serenity and peace," said Jong Woo Han, a former KU student.
Two vintage military aircraft from the Korean War flew over Memorial Stadium and the Campanile to begin the dedication ceremony. Members of ROTC then posted the colors before the playing of the national anthems of both the United States and the Republic of Korea.
During the dedication, Chancellor Robert Hemenway told the story of Jack A. Davenport, a former KU student who was killed in the Korean War on Sept. 21, 1951, two weeks after his 20th birthday. Davenport was standing watch of a foxhole with another Marine and smothered a grenade with his body, saving his fellow Marine's life.
"All of these students deserve our humbled thanks this morning and every morning." Hemenway said. The memorial joined the University's existing memorials, which include the Kansas Memorial Union and Memorial Stadium for World War I, the Campanile for World War II, and the Vietnam Memorial, in remembrance of those who gave their lives for freedom.

The gift came from Yong L. Kim, chairman of QMD International in Kansas City, Mo. Kim, who was 12 when the war began, said he made his donation when he heard about the University's difficulties in raising the money. He said he wanted to show his appreciation for what the veterans of the war did for freedom.
The University received the rest of the $120,000 needed to begin construction from other donors who live in the Kansas City area and Korea. Han, President of the SungKok Journalism Foundation in Seoul, South Korea, said his contribution to the memorial was small compared to sacrifices made by those who gave their lives.

1944 graduate comes home to Battenfeld
BY ERIC SORRENTINO
esorrentino@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Harland Cope was the first resident to step into Battenfeld Scholarship Hall in 1940. Sixty-five years after he graduated from the University of Kansas, he relived his college days with the residents of Battenfeld.
Cope, 82, visited Lawrence from Hawaii because his nephew, Gary Kilgore, had his 40th wedding anniversary in Chanute. Cope said he wanted to see the Korean War Memorial as well because he was in the Navy for more than 30 years.
Even though Cope arrived Friday and left yesterday, he made the most of his visit. He stayed at Battenfield, located on the eastern edge of campus, and talked with a dozen residents about life at the University.
But before arriving at Battenfeld, Cope unintentionally took a tour of the campus on Friday as well.
"It took me an hour to drive around campus looking for Battenfeld." Cope said.
He said he remembered the living room at Battenfeld, where students used to sing songs.
Cope, a Kansas man, grew up in Greensburg, in southwestern Kansas, and then became familiar with Lawrence during his college years. It had been 30 to 40 years since his last visit to the University. He said he found a sign to Templin Hall and thought he was close to his destination. Templin Scholarship Hall, which was razed in 1959, used to be next to Battenfeld.
"The building just looks fantastic," Cope said. "It's 65 years old, but you couldn't tell from looking at it."
different in the scholarship hall. Residents had separate rooms for homework and sleeping. Cope lived with three people in room 12, which had two desks and one chair. There were about 25 other smaller rooms with double decker beds, Cope said. Battenfeld has four people who share a living room as before, but now it has more room for sleeping arrangements.
Living arrangements used to be
"It was much more formal," Cope said.
Formality in Battenfeld came from Mother Montgomery, Cope said. As the house mother, Montgomery planned meals and disciplined the men of Battenfeld Hall. Residents took turns escorting Montgomery to
the dinner table. Once she was seated, no one picked up a knife to start eating before she did.
Montgomery was such an influential figure that Cope started the Florence Montgomery Memorial Scholarship in her name.
Cope said he arranged to meet up with two people from the class of 1944 during his trip. He said he saw two of his classmates, Jay Gunnels, and a woman named Scottie. Cope said he did not know her last name. He remembered taking classes with Gunnels, but did not recall Scottie, who lived in Corbin Hall. Cape still talked to Scottie about the functions that Battenfeld had with Corbin.
"I didn't know her, but I said that I remember dancing with her," Cope joked.
Jesse Haug, Atchison sophomore, got the opportunity to meet Cope last weekend. He was a recipient of the Montgomery Scholarship. Haug said he was honored to talk to the man responsible for the scholarship he had earned. He said he received about $1,200 this year from the scholarship.
"I could definitely see him living in Battenfeld," Haug said. "Everyone who comes through this hall loves it, and I guess that hasn't changed in 65 years."

Retired Army sergeant battles porn
PROTEST

WORLD
SALINA — In the state where Carry Nation started her saloon-busting temperance movement, Phillip Cosby is battling sex shops.
Rather than using a hatchet, as Nation did a century ago, the 54-year-old retired Army master sergeant uses the power of persuasion and a seldom-used Kansas law.
"It's not your Playboy of 30 years ago. This is porn on crack. It's so depraved and so perverse that the average Kansas citizen would recoil," the soft-spoken Cosby in an interview Monday as he worked from his den at a desk that includes a computer, phone, fax machine and a small
framed "Jesus Loves You" sign.
"One of my goals is to chase them wherever they are," Cosby said. "I want these stores out of these communities."
After Cosby met twice last year with people in this town of 45,000, church groups started circulating petitions in October requesting a grand jury investigation of two adult stores. The panel began its work earlier this month.
"My goal is to be in every county this year that has a pornography shop. I'm going there to speak to the community about the dangers of pornography and tell the people they aren't helpless, that the law is on their side," he said.
He said the petitions start only if local officials are reluctant to act after the problem is
Mike Zrubek, owner of Behind Closed Doors, one of the two Salina stores under investigation, said if there were no demand for stores like his, they wouldn't be in business.
He also has started talking to people in Wichita, Great Bend, Hays and Topeka about what they can do to battle adult stores, including pointing out the little-used law allowing for grand juries by citizen petitions.
The other Salina store under investigation is Pricilla's. Its manager, who refused to give her name, declined to comment in a telephone interview.
some of these people think they need to go out and save the rest of us," he said. "As far as consenting adults go, I don't think it does any harm."
"I don't understand why
"It's a small group imposing its will," Zrubek said. "They're using taxpayer money to push their beliefs on other people."
Bob Johnson, manager of a liquor store across the street from Zrubek's store, doesn't see any cause for alarm.
Industrial powers discuss oil prices
WASHINGTON — Amid fresh jitters from Wall Street, finance officials from the world's industrial powers said Saturday surging oil prices could crimp the economy and they pledged to limit the fallout.
An intense discussion of the energy situation dominated the meeting attended by representatives from the United States, Japan, Germany, France, Britain, Italy and Canada.
"Higher oil prices are a headwind" and the global economic expansion "is less balanced than before," the finance officials said in a joint statement.
They urged producers to increase energy supplies and said countries should conserve more.
The Group of Seven countries endorsed more timely and accurate information about the oil market, which officials said could help control price fluctuations and make companies more willing to expand production.

Iraqi detainees break out of jail
BAGHDAD, Iraq — Iraqi security forces surrounded a central Iraqi village yesterday after Sunni militants took as many as 100 Shiite Muslims hostage and threatened to kill the captives if other Shilites did not leave town.
The explosive sectarian standoff played out, as 17 people — including an American soldier — were killed in insurgent attacks elsewhere in Iraq.
Late Saturday, insurgents fired mortar rounds at a U.S. Marine base near Ramadi, 70 miles west of Baghdad, the military said, adding that there were no American casualties.
In the southeast, 11 Iraqi detainees angry at their treatment by American jailers broke out of Camp Bucca, the American military's largest detention center, by cutting through a fence. Ten were recaptured, U.S. and Iraqi authorities said.

He said he wanted to show his appreciation for what the veterans of the war did for freedom.
The University received the rest of the $120,000 needed to begin construction from other donors who live in the Kansas City area and Korea. Han, President of the SungKok Journalism Foundation in Seoul, South Korea, said his contribution to the memorial was small compared to sacrifices made by those who gave their lives.
Han spent three years at the University as a graduate student following the Korean War. He said he was glad he was able to contribute to the memorial in memory of those who died.
Hall's first resident returns
"Without their sacrifice, the South Korea we know today would neither exist nor enjoy the peace, prosperity, freedom and democracy it does today," he said.

1944 graduate comes home to Battenfeld
BY ERIC SORRENTINO
esorrentino@kansan.com
KANSAN STAFF WRITER
Harland Cope was the first resident to step into Battenfeld Scholarship Hall in 1940. Sixty-five years after he graduated from the University of Kansas, he relived his college days with the residents of Battenfeld.
Cope, 82, visited Lawrence from Hawaii because his nephew, Gary Kilgore, had his 40th wedding anniversary in Chanute. Cope said he wanted to see the Korean War Memorial as well because he was in the Navy for more than 30 years.
Even though Cope arrived Friday and left yesterday, he made the most of his visit. He stayed at Battenfeld, located on the eastern edge of campus, and talked with a dozen residents about life at the University.
But before arriving at Battenfeld, Cope unintentionally took a tour of the campus on Friday as well.
"It took me an hour to drive around campus looking for Battenfeld." Cope said.
Cope, a Kansas man, grew up in Greensburg, in southwestern Kansas, and then became familiar with Lawrence during his college years. It had been 30 to 40 years since his last visit to the University. He said he found a sign to Templin Hall and thought he was close to his destination. Templin Scholarship Hall, which was razed in 1959, used to be next to Battenfeld.
He said he remembered the living room at Battenfeld, where students used to sing songs.
"The building just looks fantastic," Cope said. "It's 65 years old, but you couldn't tell from looking at it."
different in the scholarship hall. Residents had separate rooms for homework and sleeping. Cope lived with three people in room 12, which had two desks and one chair. There were about 25 other smaller rooms with double decker beds, Cope said. Battenfeld has four people who share a living room as before, but now it has more room for sleeping arrangements.
Living arrangements used to be
"It was much more formal," Cope said.
Formality in Battenfeld came from Mother Montgomery, Cope said. As the house mother, Montgomery planned meals and disciplined the men of Battenfeld Hall. Residents took turns escorting Montgomery to
the dinner table. Once she was seated, no one picked up a knife to start eating before she did.
Montgomery was such an influential figure that Cope started the Florence Montgomery Memorial Scholarship in her name.
Cope said he arranged to meet up with two people from the class of 1944 during his trip. He said he saw two of his classmates, Jay Gunnels, and a woman named Scottie. Cope said he did not know her last name. He remembered taking classes with Gunnels, but did not recall Scottie, who lived in Corbin Hall. Cope still talked to Scottie about the functions that Battenfeld had with Corbin.
"I didn't know her, but I said that I remember dancing with her." Cope joked.
Jesse Haug, Atchison sophmore, got the opportunity to meet Cope last weekend. He was a recipient of the Montgomery Scholarship. Haug said he was honored to talk to the man responsible for the scholarship he had earned. He said he received about $1,200 this year from the scholarship.
"I could definitely see him living in Battenfeld," Haug said. "Everyone who comes through this hall loves it, and I guess that hasn't changed in 65 years."

Retired Army sergeant battles porn

BY CARL MANNING THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SALINA — In the state where Carry Nation started her saloon-busting temperance movement, Phillip Cosby is battling sex shops.
Rather than using a hatchet, as Nation did a century ago, the 54-year-old retired Army master sergeant uses the power of persuasion and a seldom-used Kansas law.
framed "Jesus Loves You" sign.
"One of my goals is to chase them wherever they are," Cosby said. "I want these stores out of these communities."
"My goal is to be in every county this year that has a pornography shop. I'm going there to speak to the community about the dangers of pornography and tell the people they aren't helpless, that the law is on their side," he said.
After Cosby met twice last year with people in this town of 45,000, church groups started circulating petitions in October requesting a grand jury investigation of two adult stores. The panel began its work earlier this month.
"It's not your Playboy of 30 years ago. This is porn on crack. It so depraved and so perverse that the average Kansas citizen would recoil," the soft-spoken Cosby in an interview Monday as he worked from his den at a desk that includes a computer, phone, fax machine and a small
Mike Zrubek, owner of Behind Closed Doors, one of the two Salina stores under investigation, said if there were no demand for stores like his, they wouldn't be in business.
He said the petitions start only if local officials are reluctant to act after the problem is
He also has started talking to people in Wichita, Great Bend, Hays and Topeka about what they can do to battle adult stores, including pointing out the little-used law allowing for grand juries by citizen petitions.
"I don't understand why

some of these people think they need to go out and save the rest of us," he said. "As far as consenting adults go, I don't think it does any harm."
The other Sina store under investigation is Pricilla's. Its manager, who refused to give her name, declined to comment in a telephone interview.
"It's a small group imposing its will," Zrubek said. "They're using taxpayer money to push their beliefs on other people."
Industrial powers discuss oil prices
WASHINGTON — Amid fresh jitters from Wall Street, finance officials from the world's industrial powers said Saturday surging oil prices could crimp the economy and they pledged to limit the fallout.
An intense discussion of the energy situation dominated the meeting attended by representatives from the United States, Japan, Germany, France, Britain, Italy and Canada.
"Higher oil prices are a headwind" and the global economic expansion "is less balanced than before," the finance officials said in a joint statement.
They urged producers to increase energy supplies and said countries should conserve more.
The Group of Seven countries endorsed more timely and accurate information about the oil market, which officials said could help control price fluctuations and make companies more willing to expand production.

Iraqi detainees break out of jail
BAGHDAD, Iraq — Iraqi security forces surrounded a central Iraqi village yesterday after Sunni militants took as many as 100 Shiite Muslims hostage and threatened to kill the captives if other Shiites did not leave town.
The explosive sectarian standoff played out, as 17 people — including an American soldier — were killed in insurgent attacks elsewhere in Iraq.
Late Saturday, insurgents fired mortar rounds at a U.S. Marine base near Ramadi, 70 miles west of Baghdad, the military said, adding that there were no American casualties.
In the southeast, 11 Iraqi detainees angry at their treatment by American jailers broke out of Camp Bucca, the American military's largest detention center, by cutting through a fence. Ten were recaptured, U.S. and Iraqi authorities said.

Moral legal decision undercut integrity of U.S. court system
Over the preceding weeks, there has been much debate regarding the actions, or lack thereof, in the Terry Schiavo case. Many of these debates have been poorly reasoned, failing to tackle the true issue at hand. Law in the United States is not a system of
DEVIN SIKES

moral beliefs; rather, it is a legal system that has been established to ensure equal protection for all individuals under the law.
Using morality as a legal guideline would be devastating for the rule of law in the United States.
Ruling in accord with a decision of the U.S. Supreme Court, the judges of the Florida Supreme Court were justified in their decision of the Terry Schiavo case. In Cruzan v. Missouri Department of Health in 1990, the U.S. Supreme Court granted an individual the right to deny life-sustaining treatment.
In his decision, Chief Justice William Rehnquist ruled that each individual has the right to "deny the use of artificial nutrition and hydration."
This decision does not sup-

posed of Christians, Muslims, Jews, Buddhists, Hindus and atheists. To endorse the morality of a majority as a legal guideline would be to deny the idea of equality as granted in the founding doctrines of our country. Elevating the power of the majority would be to play into
Despite its legal validity, many individuals feel that Michael Schiavo's actions were immoral.
Why, then, should we not appeal to these moral grounds that many individuals regard to be important? Because the United States is a conglomerate of a multiplicity of cultures and religions, what morality should we then follow?
The legal system in the United States is by no means a system without imperfection. It is, however,the best system to ensure that citizens are equally protected under the law.
In such a society, citizens would be subject to the moral beliefs of the majority. Justifying one moral system as law over another is thus a very
port, however, the "right to die." In the physician-assisted suicide case of Washington v. Glucksburg in 1997, Rehnquist affirmed that the Cruzan case was not to be understood as a "right to die" case; Rehnquist only reasoned that an individual had the right to deny artificial life-sustaining treatment.
Terri. Schiavo's husband, Michael Schiavo, was acting legitimately as the legal guardian of his wife. Acting under the law, Michael Schiavo's request was legally justified.
The population of the United States is com-
problematic task for our nation
Further, basing decisions solely on morality, the rule of law in the United States would become obsolete.
Decisions based on morality depend upon the totality of the circumstances, or in other words, the elements that constitute any given situation. Under the rule of morality, an individual could be subject to an unfair punishment instantiated by the beliefs of a given moral system.
The rule of law avoids this
Without a rule of law, individuals have no clear guidelines to follow. Therefore, citizens would have no definite knowledge of the rules by which they are legally bound.
by establishing clear guidelines so that every citizen has fair warning of, and understands, the aforementioned rules of the legal system.
The judges of the Florida Supreme Court have prolonged the protection of this equality by denying an appeal made by the parents of Terri. Schiavo, who were no longer the legal guardians of their daughter. Maintaining the separation of morality and law will ensure the proliferation of equality under the law for all citizens of the United States.
The legal system of the United States is by no means a system without imperfection. It is, however, the best system to ensure that citizens are equally protected under the law.

Kansas Relays opportunity to witness purest sport
Do you know what the rest of the world calls track and field? Athletics. If you had asked for a ticket to track and field in Athens last summer, they would not have understood you. Webster defines the word athlete as a person who is trained or skilled in sports.
PETE PRINCE
pprince@kansan.com
It is what all other sports boil down to in the end.
Who is the better athlete? Track and field, or athletics, answers who is the best athlete in specific situations; a long run, a short sprint, throwing a 16-pound ball, or jumping for distance.
Olympic champions in athletics have honed their bodies for years to do one specific thing better.
Track and field is simple to define, but incomprehensibly difficult to do.
Each moment of training must be perfect; a single day missed can mean missed opportunities. In basketball we see people who haven't competed in weeks come back and regain their form in a game or two.
Not training or competing for a few weeks in track and
field can mean the loss of an entire season. Even so, the best athletes around the world are doing their best and working their hardest, and in the end, the final straightaway does not have as much to do with your years of training but rather, how much heart and desire you have left in you to win.
To glance over, and see the person next to you straining to beat you and to rise up and stride ahead with sheer willpower at the end. That is the moment that track athletes live for. They live to finish the race and know that they won simply because they were better. There are no lucky bounces or blown calls — Texas 27, Kansas 23 — in track. if you win, you're better.
Come to the Kansas Relays on Saturday to watch Charlie Gruber a Jayhawk who should be as famous as Aaron Miles, Keith Langford or Wayne Simien.
Not a single person on our campus has the faintest idea what it's like to be an Olympic champion, or even an Olympic medalist. On Saturday April 23rd, that will change. Olympic champions Marion Jones, Maurice Green, Stacy Dragila and Allen Johnson will be running and jumping in Memorial Stadium.
The Kansas Relays are showing signs of returning to their glory days when they were one of the most major competitions on U.S. soil each year. Come to the Relays on Saturday to watch the best athletes in the world compete.
Besides the Olympic champions, also headlining the Relais is Charlie Gruber, our local U.S.

Olympian who competed in Athens last summer. Gruber, a Jayhawk track alum, still lives and trains in Lawrence and he is returning to the Relays this year. Two years ago, Gruber took down the golden boy of U.S. middle-distance running, Alan Webb, on the Memorial Stadium
Webb will not be in attendance this year, but now others will come to challenge Gruber on his home turf. A former U.S. champion from Stanford, K-State's middle distance star and the three best current Jayhawks will toe the line with Gruber. The competition is stiff and it will be a close race, but Gruber will be there to try to push back all challengers.

Come to the Relays on Saturday to watch Gruber, a Jayhawk who should be as famous as Aaron Miles, Keith Langford or Wayne Simien.
For many of the professional athletes, including Gruber, the Relays will be the starting point, the platform to build off of for the rest of their season, which stretches into August. But, the collegians should be getting into mid-
The Olympic champion Dragila will have to tangle with our own Amy Linnen, who recently won the NCAA championship in the women's pole vault.
U. S. Olympian Derrick Peterson, from the University of Missouri, will again have the unenviable task of dealing with All-American Jeremy Mims, a senior at KU. Last weekend, Mims beat the best runner in Missouri history. Come to the Relays on Saturday to watch our Jayhawks beat the best.
Maurice Green can run football's 40 in 3.8, almost a half second faster than the quickest NFL players. Former Jayhawk Scott Russell could throw a spear from the steps of Fraser Hall and hit the library.
Charlie Gruber can run a full mile at a speed faster than most of you can reach in an all-out sprint. Track and field — athletics — is a showcase of the human body in a form that is as close to perfection as mankind has achieved thus far.
Come to the Relays on Saturday, sit in the sunshine and warm weather, to watch the human body and spirit in top form.

Moral legal decision undercut integrity of U.S. court system
Over the preceding weeks, there has been much debate regarding the actions, or lack thereof, in the Terry Schiavo case. Many of these debates have been poorly reasoned, failing to tackle the true issue at hand. Law in the United States is not a system of

moral beliefs; rather, it is a legal system that has been established to ensure equal protection for all individuals under the law.
Using morality as a legal guideline would be devastating for the rule of law in the United States.
Ruling in accord with a decision of the U.S. Supreme Court, the judges of the Florida Supreme Court were justified in their decision of the Terry Schiavo case. In Cruzan v. Missouri Department of Health in 1990, the U.S. Supreme Court granted an individual the right to deny life-sustaining treatment.
In his decision, Chief justice William Rehnquist ruled that each individual has the right to "deny the use of artificial nutrition and hydration."
This decision does not supposed of Christians, Muslims, Jews, Buddhists, Hindus and atheists. To endorse the morality of a majority as a legal guideline would be to deny the idea of equality as granted in the founding doctrines of our country. Elevating the power of the majority would be to play into
This decision does not to die to die." In the physician-assisted suicide case of Washington v. Glucksburg in 1997, Rehnquist affirmed that the Cruzan case was not to be understood as a "right to die" case; Rehnquist only reasoned that an individual had the right to deny artificial life-sustaining treatment.
Despite its legal validity, many individuals feel that Michael Schiavo's actions were immoral.
The legal system in the United States is by no means a system without imperfection. It is, however, the best system to ensure that citizens are equally protected under the law.
Why, then, should we not appeal to these moral grounds that many individuals regard to be important? Because the United States is a conglomerate of a multiplicity of cultures and religions, what morality should we then follow?

the fears of the "tyranny of the majority," identified throughout history by Plato, Aristotle and James Madison.
In such a society, citizens would be subject to the moral beliefs of the majority. Justifying one moral system as law over another is thus a very
The population of the United States is com-
problematic task for our nation.
Further, basing decisions solely on morality, the rule of law in the United States would become obsolete.
Decisions based on morality depend upon the totality of the circumstances, or in other words, the elements that constitute any given situation. Under the rule of morality, an individual could be subject to an unfair punishment instantiated by the beliefs of a given moral system.
The rule of law avoids this
by establishing clear guidelines so that every citizen has fair warning of, and understands, the aforementioned rules of the legal system.
Without a rule of law, individuals have no clear guidelines to follow. Therefore, citizens would have no definite knowledge of the rules by which they are legally bound.
The legal system of the United States is by no means a system without imperfection. It is, however, the best system to ensure that citizens are equally protected under the law.
The judges of the Florida Supreme Court have prolonged the protection of this equality by denying an appeal made by the parents of Terri. Schiavo, who were no longer the legal guardians of their daughter. Maintaining the separation of morality and law will ensure the proliferation of equality under the law for all citizens of the United States.

Do you know what the rest of the world calls track and field? Athletics. If you had asked for a ticket to track and field in Athens last summer, they would not have understood you. Webster defines the word athlete as a person who is trained or skilled in sports.
PETE PRINCE

It is what all other sports boil down to in the end.
Who is the better athlete? Track and field, or athletics, answers who is the best athlete in specific situations; a long run, a short sprint, throwing a 16-pound ball, or jumping for distance.
Olympic champions in athletics have honed their bodies for years to do one specific thing bet- then anyone else on north
ter than anyone else on earth. Track and field is simple to define, but incomprehensibly difficult to do.
Each moment of training must be perfect; a single day missed can mean missed opportunities. In basketball we see people who haven't competed in weeks come back and regain their form in a game or two.

field can mean the loss of an entire season. Even so, the best athletes around the world are doing their best and working their hardest, and in the end, the final straightaway does not have as much to do with your years of training but rather, how much heart and desire you have left in you to win.
Not a single person on our campus has the faintest idea what it's like to be an Olympic champion, or even an Olympic medalist. On Saturday April 25rd, that will change. Olympic champions Marion Jones, Maurice Green, Stacy Dragila and Allen Johnson will be running and jumping in Memorial Stadium.
To glance over, and see the person next to you straining to beat you and to rise up and stride ahead with sheer willpower at the end. That is the moment that track athletes live for. They live to finish the race and know that they won simply because they were better. There are no lucky bounces or blown calls — Texas 27, Kansas 23 — in track, if you win, you're better.
Besides the Olympic champions, also heading the Relays is Charlie Gruber, our local U.S.

Webb will not be in attendance this year, but now others will come to challenge Gruber on his home turf. A former U.S. champion from Stanford, K-State's middle distance star and the three best current Jayhawks will toe the line with Gruber. The competition is stiff and it will be a close race, but Gruber will be there to try to push back all challengers.

For many of the professional athletes, including Gruber, the Relays will be the starting point, the platform to build off of for the rest of their season, which stretches into August. But, the collegians should be getting into mid-
The Olympic champion Dragila will have to tangle with our own Amy Linnen, who recently won the NCAA championship in the women's pole vault.
U. S. Olympian Derrick Peterson, from the University of Missouri, will again have the unenviable task of dealing with All-American Jeremy Mims, a senior at KU. Last weekend, Mims beat the best runner in Missouri history. Come to the Relays on Saturday to watch our Jayhawks beat the best.
Maurice Green can run football's 40 in 3.8, almost a half second faster than the quickest NFL players. Former Jayhawk Scott Russell could throw a spear from the steps of Fraser Hall and hit the library.
Charlie Gruber can run a full mile at a speed faster than most of you can reach in an all-out sprint. Track and field — athletics — is a showcase of the human body in a form that is as close to perfection as mankind has achieved thus far.
Come to the Relays on Saturday, sit in the sunshine and warm weather, to watch the human body and spirit in top form.

Pow wow
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A
Audience members were treated to Indian tacos, dancing and music from more than 50 tribes and 10 states, and to handmade arts and crafts being sold inside the gymnasium.
While some dancers wore neon colors and incorporated nontraditional items such as CDs into their outfits to reflect the light, Warrington and her mother made her dress in the form of the traditional Prairie Band Pottawatomi blue dress.
She said she made her dress to represent and bring back that older style.
The clothing differences were matched only by the differences in the dancer's ages. Children as young as 4 were dressed to participate in the pow wow.
Warrington didn't get nervous about performing, and she said she danced as a way to relieve stress.
Four years ago, when Warrington was eight months pregnant with her her son Show, she lost all of her belongings in an apartment fire. All of her jingle dresses, eagle feathers and items she had bought for her son were destroyed.
Warrington was devastated and said that no amount of money could replace the things she lost.
Six weeks after the fire her son was born and a month after that she had already made a new dress and was ready to dance again.
The fire slowed down her dancing but didn't stop her.
The master of ceremonies calls the women who are dancing in the traditional category out to the dance floor.
The drums start beating and the face of a life-long veteran takes over.
She moves up and down concentrating to match the rhythm of the drums to the motion of her feet.
She said she didn't just dance for herself, but for all of the older people who couldn't dance anymore and for all of her ancestors who danced before her.
Cornel Pewewardy, associate professor of teaching and leadership, said the pow wove Native American students an opportunity to express their passion about a shared culture.
"It gives them a taste of what really moves our people," he said.
It wasn't all fun for the KU students who were in charge the event. Olivia StandingBear, Pawhuska, Okla., senior and First Nations Student Association president, spent the entire day running errands to make sure everything was ready for the event.
395
The pow wow unofficially ended FNSA's Big 12 leadership conference, which was held this year at the University of Kansas.
Overall, StandingBear was happy about the pow wow and its turnout but she said it was an emotional time for her because many of the FNSA students were graduating.
Krysallin Ahtone, Lawrence resident and Pottawatomie dancer, performs in Robinson Center during the pow wow competition Saturday night. The competition featured more than 100 performers.
More than 100 registered dancers competed in the pow wow for prize money taken from concession sales.
Warrington placed second in women's northern traditional.

Interceptions, incompletions permeate spring game

KANSAN SPORTSWRIVER
Saturday's spring game did nothing to ease the quarterback controversy at Kansas, as the blue team defeated the white team 24-6 at Memorial Stadium.
Sophomore Adam Barmann and junior Jason Swanson both saw a lot of action, but both did nothing significant for their cases to be the starting quarterback when the season begins Sept. 3 against Florida Atlantic.
"I feel like we made strides this
spring, and our offense is really coming around," Barmann said.
Both quarterbacks threw touchdown passes in the first half. Barmann completed 10 of 15 passes for 103 yards and a touchdown, and Swanson was 6-for-10 for 75 yards. Swanson's highlight of the half was a 53-yard touchdown pass to wide receiver Brian Murph, who is a junior college transfer.
The second half was a different story as Barmann and Swanson combined for three interceptions and only nine complete passes.
Freshman cornerback Qalib Talib had two interceptions for the blue
team. Coach Mark Mangino said he had the defense blitzing often during the game to put pressure on the quarterbacks.
Mangino said going against the defense that the quarterbacks face every day in practice may have played a part in their struggles, because defenders were aware of the plays that the offensive unit runs.
Swanson said it was difficult to get into a rhythm because he rotated with Barmann.
Mangino said Swanson had made strides since last season.
"I thought Jason did some nice things at the line of scrimpage on
some checks," Mangino said. "He threw the ball reasonably well. He understands a lot better now the coverages and what he is seeing."
Mangino said that neither of the quarterbacks left the spring practices with an edge in winning the job.
Junior Brian Luke played most of the game at quarterback for the white team and struggled. Luke was 13 of 32 for 88 yards and three interceptions. Mangino said after the game that Luke's role on the team was to be a relief player.
The running game was virtually

Game spurs speculation over team's next season
Now that the spring game has ended there will be about three months of speculation for how the Kansas football team will look next season.
Both quarterbacks struggled often against the second-team defense. Both quarterbacks underthrew balls and missed onen receivers.
Coach Mark Mangino said that the defense had the edge against the offense in the game because
they see each other in practice every day, but that shouldn't be an excuse, when you are playing against the second unit.

job. Otherwise, this team will struggle offensively like it did so many times last season. Combining for three interceptions against an inferior defense does not help either candidate's case to become the starter. Senior Ryan Luke threw another three interceptions of his own Saturday, proving that he's not starting material.
There may be more fire added to the controversy come August when incoming freshman quarterback Kerry Meier arrives on campus. If Barmann and Swanson continue to struggle, he easily could be in the mix. Mangino has made it clear that he doesn't care what year his players are in school — he wants the best players on the field.

Ninth-inning play vexes Kansas

KANSAN SPORTSWRIVER
The Kansas baseball team dropped a heartbreaker yesterday afternoon and closed out a disappointing series sweep at the hands of Baylor in Hoglund Ballpark.
The Jayhawks seemed posed to salvage the final game of the three-game conference series. After eight innings, Kansas clung to a 2-1 lead, but Baylor won the game 3-2. Kansas coaches decided to send junior pitcher Kodiak Quick out for the ninth inning despite his pitch count, which had climbed
Quick, who was masterful leading up to the final inning, struck out the first batter before surrendering a single to junior catcher Zach Dillon. After walking the next batter, Kansas summoned junior closer Don Czyz. Czyz promptly threw a wild pitch, advancing the runners to second base and third base. An RBI groundout by sophomore outfielder Chase Gerdes scored the tying run, and another wild pitch scored what proved to be the game-winner.

"I think our thought process was that he deserved the opportunity to close it up, as well as he'd been throwing the baseball,"
Kansas coach Ritch Price said of his decision to leave Quick in to start the ninth inning. "I trink you reward somebody that gives you that great effort."
Junior Abe Woody picked up his fourth victory of the season in relief for sophomore Cory VanAllen.
Quick was the hard-luck loser, falling to 8-4 on the year. He allowed three runs on five hits in 8 2/3 innings of work. Junior Ryan LaMotta closed the book on the series with his third save of the year.
"That hurts," Kansas senior catcher Sean Richardson said. "Kody pitched his butt off today, threw eight innings strong.
Unfortunately, we couldn't get it done in the ninth."
Kansas loaded the bases off VanAllen's and Woody's hits with two singles and a walk. Richardson followed by rolling a ground ball to Baylor senior second baseman Michael Griffin. Griffin fumbled the ball before throwing Richardson out

After falling behind by a run early, Kansas tied the game 1-1 in the fourth innning. Junior outfielder Gus Milner hit his seventh home run of the season. The line drive over the left-field fence gave the Jayhawks momentum that carried them into the fifth.

Women's varsity boat team wins medal in Knecht Cup
The first varsity four A boat for the Kansas rowing team took home the team's only medal from the Knecht Cup in Camden, N.J., this weekend. The boat dominated all of Saturday and yesterday's finals, taking first in the preliminary rounds, semifinals and the grand final.
For the grand final, the team raced against Sacramento State, Villanova, Penn State, Boston College and the Jayhawks' first varsity four B boat.
The winning boat's rowers were: junior Alexis Boston, junior Kris Lazar, sophomore Jelayna Da Silva, senior Rachel Chapman and junior coxswain Crystal Reed.
"It was like we didn't have to race," Reed said. "We just sailed through every race this weekend."
for the final, the boat established a lead in the first 500 meters, Kansas coach Rob Catloth said.
"They controlled the race from the start," he said. "They went down the course and never let up."
Boston called it the smoothest race the boat had all season.
"The four of us just clicked so well," she said. "It's the best technical race we could've had. We were so far ahead the whole time that we were able to stay confident. We couldn't have asked for a better race."

Cowboys come from behind Missouri falls out of first place
STILLWATER, Okla. — Jeff Pierpicked picked up a pair of home runs and five RBIs to help Oklahoma State to a 8-5, come-from-behind win over Missouri on yesterday.
it was the Cowboys' (27-14, 8-7) third straight victory against the Tigers (27-9, 8-4).
Missouri jumped to an early 5-0 lead, scoring three runs in the first inning on a three-run homer by James Boone and two more runs in the third.
The Cowboys answered with three runs in the bottom of the third on a three-run home run by Parrish, and two more scores in the fourth on RBI singles by Corey Brown and Adam Carr, to tie the game, 5-5.
Parrish then gave OSU the lead for good in the seventh with a two-run hero to center field. The Pokes added a run in the bottom of the eighth on a solo hero by Justin Colbert.
Andrew Johnston (2-2) allowed two runs on three hits through three innings of relief for the loss.
Missouri, which was first in the Big 12 standings before this weekend's sweep, fell to third behind first-place Baylor and Nebraska.

Team needs 'boost' after losing twice

Junior infielder Destiny Frankenstein connects with a pitch during the game against Baylor yesterday in Arocha Ballpark. Frankenstein led the jayhawks with a career-high four hits, two doubles and two singles, but the effort came in an 8-5 loss, dropping the team to 19-18 and 2-7 in the Big 12 Conference.
The Kansas softball team lost both games this weekend to No. 8 Baylor, losing tough games on Saturday, 8-7 in eight innings and 8-5 yesterday, in Arrocha Ballpark.
Kansas coach Tracy Bunge said the Jahawks had an opportunity to get some key Big 12 Conference victories but fundamental errors hurt the team.
"We ran ourselves out of innings," Bunge said.
She said the errors killed momentum and killed possible rallies.
Junior shortstop Destiny Frankenstein said the losses were frustrating.
"We have to improve base running and defense," she said.
Yesterday the Jayhawks had fourbase running errors that were costly to the down stretch of the game.
Bunge said she was pleased with the team's hitting during the weekend. Frankenstein led the team, going 4-for-4 with one run and one RBI. The Jayhawks out hit the Bears 11 to 6 and only struck out once but could not advance runners effectively.
Kassie Humphreys, sophomore pitcher, struggled from the circle yesterday, giving up five hits and five earned runs.
"Kassie is very frustrated, but she works hard and has one of the best attitudes every day," Bunge said.
Serena Settlemier, junior pitcher, relieved Humphreys and gave up only one hit and one earned run during her four innings of work. She
retired nine straight batters.
Saturday, the team was in position to pull off an upset. Heather Stanley, junior outfielder, kept the team in the game with a three-run home run to deep left field in the bottom of the third inning, pulling the Jayhawks within one. Kansas took the lead in the fourth inning but Baylor bounced back and won in extra innings. Stephanie Pomes, Baylor
third baseman, hit a solo home run in the eighth inning, giving the Bears the victory.
Frankenstein said everyone was trying to pick up each other's spirits. The Jayhawks will need a boost in confidence to get back to the victory column after two tough losses at home, she said.
The team will travel to Lincoln,
Neb. Wednesday to take on the
Cornhuskers. Then the Jayhawks will make the hour drive to Omaha, Neb., to face the Creighton Bluejays in a double-header contest Thursday. The team will be back in Arrocha Ballpark, which is adjacent to Allen Fieldhouse, this weekend to host a conference match-up against Oklahoma.

Buffaloes sweep Jayhawks in doubles

KANSAN SPORTWRITER
Kansas (4-15,3-7 Big 12) lost the doubles point for the sixth consecutive match despite an added emphasis on doubles in practice.
As the end of the women's tennis season approached in the Big 12 Conference, the Kansas tennis team fell to the Colorado Buffaloes, 5-2, at the Robinson Courts on Saturday.
"We can't keep coming from behind," Kansas coach Amy Hall-Holt said. "We're just trying everything possible that we can do to get that doubles point. I definitely felt that we were more competitive."
The Buffaloes swept all three doubles matches.
In singles, Colorado sophomore Lynzee Kever ousted Kansas freshman Elizaveta Avdeeva, 2-6, 6-1, 6-1. In the first set, Avdeeva got off to a fast start, breaking Kever on three occasions. Avdeeva committed unforced errors and the former first team All-Big 12 selection was defeated. Avdeeva has dropped her last four matches in singles.
Kansas junior Christine Skoda defeated Colorado senior Kendra Strandemo in straight sets. 7-5, 6-3.
Skoda is 7-3 in the Big 12 in singles this spring.
"I think I just recognized her weaknesses." Skoda said.
Skoda, who is the team's most experienced player, has spent time playing at both the No.1 and No.2 singles slot.
"I was really proud of Skoda," Hall-Holt said. "She played with confidence. She had that competitive drive."
Kansas freshman Stephanie Smith has been the most consistent player for the Jayhawks the last couple of matches. The Salina native knocked off Colorado freshman Gleisy Torres Torres. 6-4, 5-7, 1-0.
Smith leads the team with 14 match victories and is currently on a five-match winning streak at the No. 6 singles position.
BENNIE CARTER
"It was kind of up and down throughout whole match," Smith said. She said she thought she did well when she got into her game and staved focused.
Hall-Holt said she was pleased with her freshman prospect.
"We are proud of her," Hall-Holt said. "It's all about staying with the point and playing the long points."
Kansas sophomore Brittany Brown, freshman Lauren Hommell and sophomore Ashley Filberth all lost their singles matches.
With the victory, the Colorado Buffalo improved their record to
11-7 (3-5 Big 12). Colorado will host Oklahoma next Saturday, followed by a date with Nebraska on Sunday.

Freshman Stephanie Smith reaches to a forehand shot during her No. 6 singles match. Smith continued her five-match winning streak with a third-set tiebreaker victory, 6-4, 5-7, 1-0. The team didn't fare as well overall, losing against Colorado 5-2 Saturday at Robinson Courts.
The Kansas Jayhawks have one match remaining on the schedule
before the Big 12 tournament. Kansas will host Texas A&M next Sunday in Lawrence.

Clark Green's injury forced freshman running back Gary Green to play more than expect. Gary Green rushed for 18 yards on 11 carries.

Gary Green dealt with pass blocking as well as rushing, something that was not expected out of the 5-foot-9 running back. Mangino said he did not expect Gary Green to be put in such a difficult situation on Saturday.
Green said.
"It has never been our intention for him to play as many reps today in any game," Mangino said. "That's not the type of player he is."
Sophomore running back Jon Cornish also saw significant time yesterday despite playing linebacker for three weeks during spring practices. Cornish finished with 55 yards on 11 carries. Mangino said that Cornish would be strictly an offensive player next season.
The player who made the most impact yesterday was Murph. He caught six passes for 111 yards
including a touchdown in the first half. He finished the day with seven catches for 110 yards.

at first on a close call by first base umpire Andy Eaves. The Kansas dugout thought that Richardson beat the throw, and Price argued the play to no avail. Kansas got its first lead of the series, 2-1, in the controversial play, but it took the wind out of a possible big inning.
"I thought I beat the play, but he thought I didn't," Richardson said. "That's the way it went."
Price thought that this was a game that the Jayhawks desperately needed.
"If we win the game we're 4-8 and still one special weekend away from getting back in the playoff race." Price said. "One thing we know is that you have to play all 27 outs and they scored two runs with only one hit. That's a pretty tough loss at the end."
Friday and Saturday's games were no contest. Kansas senior
pitcher Mike Zagurski was ineffective in seven innings of play. He allowed seven runs in an 8-4 loss, dropping his record to 4-4. Baylor led 6-0 before Kansas got on the board in the fifth inning on two wild pitches following singles by junior first baseman Jared Schweitzer and freshman designated hitter John Allman.
In game two of the series, Baylor starter Mark McCormick baffled Kansas hitters on route to a 13-2 Bayor victory. He pitched six innings, allowing two runs on four hits and striking out seven. It was his fifth victory of the year. Kansas sophomore Sean Land took his second loss of the week, giving him a record of 3-4.
After the weekend, the Jayhawks stand in last place in the Big 12 at 3-9 and 24-18 overall. Baylor moved into first place at 12-3 after Missouri was swept at Oklahoma State. Overall, Baylor is 24-13.

"We're going to come out pretty pumped up for Wednesday, and we're going to beat the snot out of the Shockers," he said. Baseball notes

Speculation
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B
There were many positives during the game. The defense looks even better than last year's unit. Freshman safety Aqib Talib was great, snagging two interceptions. He should be a solid addition to the secondary that returns junior Charles Gordon and senior Theo Baines. The unit will need Talib to step up because opposing offenses are going to be less likely to throw in Gordon's direction because of the third team All-American's success last season.
Junior wide receiver Brian Murph was impressive on Saturday. He caught nearly everything thrown his direction and showed off his big-play ability as he scored on a 52-yard touchdown pass from senior quarterback Jason Swanson. His speed and hands are going to be a great addition to a unit that
lost its leading receiver last season in Brandon Rideau.
There was much talk before the game about how freshman running back Gary Green and freshman wide receiver Marcus Herford would perform. It is clear that they are the future of the offensive units here at Kansas but Gary Green struggled as he was unable to get into the open field, where he is most dangerous.
Gary Green is not going to run over many linebackers like senior Clark Green can to make big gains, so he is going to have to be successful by making people miss. It just may take longer for him to become the superstar back many fans hope he will become.
Gary Green needs to get to that open field so he can show off his dazzling speed and quick feet. He should be utilized in the passing game as well. Clark Green has been a valuable receiver, as he can get the short slants and make moves to turn them into big
gains. Gary Green should be able to do that even better. With his speed, if he gets into one-on-one coverage he can score touchdowns catching the ball.
Herford showed good hands in the first half, as he caught three passes for 20 yards. But, like Gary Green, he never got an opportunity to get the ball in the open field and make his moves. Herford is going to be a huge addition next season; he may be the team's most talented wide receiver. With him, Murph and senior Mark Simmons, the wide receiver position is in good hands.
Overall it was a successful spring game and a successful set of practices for the Kansas football team. The Jayhawks will have to continue to work hard to become a threat in the Big 12 North this fall.

Run-starved Royals struggle against Tigers
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Mike Maroth, known for his finesse pitching, was pleased to have a strong fastball as well.
Marth pitched 7 2-3 strong innings and Ivan Rodriguez had three hits, including a home run and two-run double, to lead the Detroit Tigers to a 6-1 victory over the Kansas City Royals yesterday.
"It's more important for me to locate and make my pitches," Maroth said. "That's my game. Of course, it's nice to see a fastball get up there real good."
Tigers pitching coach Bob Cluck said Maroth could run it up to 90 mph on occasion, but "that's not his game."
that's not the gun. Maroth (1-1) was roughed up by the Royals at Detroit April 6, allowing 11 hits and five runs in 3-2-3 innings. In the rematch, he retired 12 of the first 13 batters, allowing just Angel Berroa's two-out single in the second during the stretch.
"I had pretty much all my pitches worked," Maroth said.
"That's the only way I'm going to be effective and I'm able to throw them for strikes. I was able to do this time against Kansas City. The last time I faced them I had trouble throwing all my pitches over the plate and was getting behind hitters."
"This time I was able to get ahead of hitters especially when that four-run (third) inning put us up, it gave me the opportunity to go right after hitters and make them put the ball in play and that's what it did. It worked out real well."
Maroth lowered his ERA from 7.27 to 4.41.
"It starts with the pitching." Tigers manager Alan Trammell said. "Mike was outstanding, working quick and throwing strikes. It's by far his best game of the season. It's what we needed."
Rodriguez had nothing but praise for Maroth.
"When he works quick and throws strikes, he's very tough to hit," Rodriguez said. "He keeps the hitters thinking on every pitch."
Rodriguez, who has the second-highest career batting average among active players at Kauffman Stadium, went 3-for-5, raising his average to .359 at Kansas City.
The Tigers batted around in a four-run third, highlighted by Rodriguez's double to left-center driving in Nook Logan and Brandon Inge, who both reached base on bunt singles to open the inning. Rondell White singled home Rodriguez, and Omar Infante's two-out single scored White.
Logan manufactured a run in the fourth with his speed. He led off with an infield single and then stole second. When Royals starter Runnelsy Hernandez (1-2) attempted to pick him off second, his throw struck the top of Logan's helmet and ricocheted to right-center as Logan scored.
A five-run deficit was too much for the Royals, who rank 13th in the American League with 42 runs.

"He's the fastest guy in the league," Rodriguez said.

TRACK AND FIELD
Jayhawk vaults into record books
BY FRANK TANKARD
fankard@hansan.com
KANSAN SEEDWRITER
There are few living-athletes like him, people who stay healthy and focused long enough to perform at a world-class level for two decades.
In a sport where young stars are constantly breaking records, longtime athletes like pole vaulter Pat Manson tend to get overlooked.
Two years ago, shortly after Manson vaulted higher than 18 feet, a statistician told him something he hadn't considered: He had broken the 18-feet barrier for 18 years in a row, tying U.S.A. Track and Field Hall of Famer Earl Bell's all-time streak.
But it wasn't until the 37-year-old University of Kansas graduate vaulted 18 feet, 1/2 inch two weeks ago, marking the 20th year Manson had cleared 18 feet, that people took notice.
Manson said the small meet, at Peterson Air Force Base in Colorado Springs, Colo., had run late and by the time he vaulted at the end of the day there were only a few people around to hear the announcer say that he had cleared 18 feet for the 20th straight year.

But since the news spread across track and field chat rooms and news reports, Manson is enjoying a level of attention he hasn't received for years.
Photo contributed by David Black Pat Mason, 37-year-old University of Kansas graduate vaulted 18 feet, 1/2 inch two weeks ago for the 20th year running. The meet took place at Peterson Air Force Base in Colorado Springs, Colo.
The streak started in 1986, a year many University of Kansas freshmen were born, when Manson set a state record with a vault of exactly 18 feet as a senior at Aurora Central High School in Aurora, Colo. No Colorado high school athlete has come close to his record since. The next best is 16 feet, 2 inches.
After graduating from Aurora Central, he came to the University, where he competed alongside three-time U.S. champion and former American record-holder Scott Huffman on a team that included several of Kansas' all-time great pole vaulters.
"We had the best vaulting crew in the nation," Manson said.
He said one of his favorite memories at Kansas was receiving a gold watch for winning the Kansas Relays in 1989. He went on to win the meet again in 1992, 1995 and 2001.
He competed in his first of five Olympic trials in 1988, placing 17th. He also placed second in the 1989 NCAA Championships and third in 1991.
Manson graduated in 1991 with a degree in mechanical engineering. Figuring he wouldn't be able to make much of a living as a professional athlete, he found a job in Lawrence with Environmental Management Resources, where he worked until 1996.
He said the company allowed him to stay involved in track despite his need to travel across the country and overseas for weeks at a time during the season.
"One of the tough things in a sport that doesn't have the money is just supporting yourself," he said. "One of the biggest challenges was the first couple of years out of college, and EMR in Lawrence was fantastic."
Meanwhile, Manson vaulted a little higher each year. The summer after he graduated, he won the Pan-American Games, which he would later win two more times. In 1994 he cleared 19 feet for the first time, establishing a career best of 19 feet, 2.25 inches.
All this led to the 1996 Olympic trials. Manson was 28 years old, in his prime, and ranked as the top pole vaulter in the United States, 10th in the world, by Track and Field News.

But before it was his turn to vault, a truck ran over his poles and broke them.
Manson proposed to Amy Legacki. They had met in 1993 at the U.S. Nationals in Eugene, Ore. She was a long distance runner and University of Indiana graduate.
Luckily, his friend and former teammate Huffman let him borrow one of his poles. Manson vaulted 18 feet, 8.25 inches, putting him in a tie for the third and final spot on the Olympic team. But because Manson had missed the bar more times, he finished sixth and didn't make the Atlanta Olympics.
Manson didn't view the event as a tragedy. He said he was grateful he even got to jump.
It's not surprising that Manson, the son of a college football player and a marathon runner, should marry another track and field athlete. Amy, who still races competitively, said she enjoyed having someone who understood the hours of work and weeks of traveling it takes to be an elite athlete.
The day after the meet,
"We have a deal to someday I have to pole vault and he has to run a marathon," she said. "Just so we know how difficult it is."
Each year Manson has remained at the top of the United States pole vaulting circuit. He competed in the 2000 and 2004 Olympic trials, falling short of making the Olympic team both times. He knows that the 2004 meet, in which he didn't make it past the preliminaries, was probably his last shot.
"Athletics is like a bell curve." he said. "When you're on your way up, just qualifying for the Olympic Trials is a big deal. Now I'm struggling not to go down the other side as far as my performance level."
Now that Manson is nearing the end of his career, he has started to focus more on his business prospects.
He started a small business, Vault Mortgage Colo., two years ago.
The days of working out on the track for hours are gone. Now he's happy when he can squeeze in an hour on the track at a local high school during his lunch break three times a week. He gives advice to the high school pole vaulters and their coaches, and puts on one-day clinics occasionally.
He and Amy have two children and live in Superior, Colo. Four years ago Amy started a
track club which she and Pat run during the summer for local children. They bring in their professional track and field friends to talk to the children.
This Saturday Manson will compete at the Kansas Relays in the Scott Huffman Men's Pole Vault at 2 p.m.
Manson asks himself: when is it time to stop? He no longer has the Olympic trials to train for, but the streak gently pushes him on. Should he keep going until he can't get up to 18 feet any more, or should he walk away on his own terms?
He's not ready to make that decision yet. But he says that this year's Kansas Relays could
"I know that the window of opportunity will soon be passed," he said. "But when I'm an old man looking back, I don't think I'll regret getting the most out of my time as a professional athlete. And when it's done, it's done."

TRACK
Two athletes have 'outstanding' meet
Several Jayhawks took top honors at the Tom Botts Invitational in Columbia, Mo. Highlighting the Jayhawks' weekend were Sheldon Battle and Brooklyn Hann, who were named Most Outstanding Performers of the meet.
Battle threw farther than 200 feet for the first time in his career. The junior threw 202 feet defeating Iowa's Chris Voller by 5 feet, 7 inches. He also came in second in the shot put by throwing 62 feet, 9.25 inches, falling short to Missouri graduate Christian Cantwell's throw. Cantwell, the 2004 World Indoor Champion, defeated Battle by throwing 65 feet, 10.25 inches.
Hann's victory included breaking the Kansas women's record in the triple jump. The senior finished with a jump of 43 feet, 7 inches, surpassing her previous record of 42 feet, 11 inches. Hann also regionally qualified in her first place finish in the 100-meter hurdles. She finished in 13.61 seconds.
Jeremy Mims ran against Olympians Charlie Gruber and Derek Peterson in the 800-meter run. The senior won the event with the time of 1:47,96 defeating the meet record of 1:48,28, held by Peterson.
"It's exciting," Mims said. "I kind of go into my own world before my race. I didn't recognize Charlie was outside of me."
Julius Jiles recorded three first place finishes. The freshman finished first and regionally qualified in the 100-meter hurdles with the time of 14.22 seconds. He also took the 400-meter hurdles with the time of 53.08 seconds and ran a leg in the 4x400-meter relay. The relay team finished first with a time of 3:20.60.
The Jayhawks' also did well in the pole vault. Senior Amy Linnen broke the Walton Stadium record with her vault of 13 feet, 5.75 inches. Junior Chris Lockard won the men's pole vault with the jump of 14 feet, 7.25 inches.
