The report claims that Watring assaulted Chris Kaufman, Denver senior, during the March 9 men's basketball game at Missouri. "They wanted to get our perspective on the things that happened," said Littrell, Lee's Summit, Mo., junior. Rich Littrell, a witness in the investigation, said Lisa Wimmenauer, assistant director of business services at MU, interviewed him Thursday at the University of Kansas.

The publisher reserves the right to alter or modify this information. During the interview, Wimmenauer asked for the students' sides of the story and had them demonstrate physically what happened by acting it out, said Chris Green, another witness. "We drew diagrams so that she could get an idea of the setting and layout," said Green, a KU alumnus. Green also brought the sign that sparked the incident so that Wimmenauer could physically see it. he said. In the complaint, Kaufman accused Watring of assaulting him after he refused to take down the sign. Written on the sign was a statement that said Mizzou Arena was "Allen Fieldhouse East." Kautman said in a written statement that Watring grabbed him by the collar after Kaufman tried to take the sign back. Andrew Wymore, a KU alumnus, was ejected from the game during the incident and then arrested for trespassing after he bought another ticket into the game. Mary Jo Banken, director of the MU News Bureau, declined comment about the situation and said a statement would not be released until the investigation is complete. Wimmenauer could not be reached for comment. Wimmenauer had told Green during the interview that she had spoken with other witnesses who gave the same version of the story as he and his friends had. Green said. Wimmenauer told him that more people had come forward as witnesses after news spread throughout Columbia, Mo. "it's 100 percent true," Green said. He said that Wimmenauer told Green and his friends that that there was no variation in other witnesses' accounts of the incident. Aside from punishment, Watring should give us a public apology. Green said. "Not only to us," he added. "But to anyone wearing blue that day." The University of Missouri Police Department could not be reached for comment yesterday.

Giddens is taking a more serious approach to next season. This offseason is the first he has been healthy and able to work out, and he plans on making the most of it by working out and concentrating on his outside shot. Serious Intent From freshman fame to sophomore slump J.R. Giddens is ready for redemption F fresh off an offseason weight-lifting session, J.R. Giddens has one thing on his mind. "Man, I am starving," Giddens saeve Miranda Lenning ♦ Kansan senior sportswriter "Man, I am starving," Giddens says. The 6-foot-five 200-pound sophomore guard is healthy for the first offseason of his college career, and he intends to use every second of it to improve his game. One of his summer goals: get stronger. On the way there, Giddens can't stop talking about the afternoon's workout. Like they've done "Where do you all want to eat," Giddens demands impatiently. "I could eat anywhere, I'm so hungry." As he always does, Giddens suggests McDonald's. He will not often turn down a double cheeseburger and a milkshake. But on this Wednesday afternoon, his dinner companions choose Subway. almost every day since the conclusion of the season, Giddens and some of his teammates played three-on-three after lifting weights. He loves three-on-three. He likes the emptiness of Allen Fieldhouse when it is just him and his teammates showcasing their athleticism and raw talent. Giddens describes one play where he and freshman guard Russell Robinson executed a perfect two-on-one play. Robinson beat a defender in transition and threw an ally-oop pass to Giddens on the opposite end. Slain! "We were out there running and playing fast, Giddens said. "We are going to be so fast next year Although next year's Jayhawks will look entirely different than this year's senior-led squad, Giddens talks about the 2005-06 Jayhawks with excitement. He could easily be the leader of that team. As a junior on a team with 11 freshmen and sophomores, Giddens knows there will be room for leadership. He also knows he has to prove to his teammates that he is capable of that role. Leadership has to be earned. This year's group of seniors, for example, spent three seasons training to be leaders Albert Johnson, athletics assistant at Texas A&M, coached Giddens his sophomore and junior years in high school. Johnson was his coach at John Marshall High School and coach of his AAU team, Athletes First. But next year, there is not an inherent leader or group of leaders. So Giddens wants to lead by example.

Zack Gould and other Lawrence skateboarders don't have to leave town to buy skateboarding equipment anymore. anymore. Less than a year after Let It Ride, Lawrence's only skateboard shop, Dan Salazar rolled in with his own. Midwest Skateboarding, at 836 Iowa St. For Gould, a skater for four years, it's a relief. "It's good to have someplace." he said as he applied grip to the top of a sun-yellow colored board he recently bought from Midwest Skateboarding. "Not having a shop during the winter brought our morale down." This is the second Midwest Skateboarding location that Salazar has opened. Two years ago he opened one in Topeka. Although Salazar wanted to open a shop in Lawrence, he didn't want to move in on what he saw as Let It Ride's turf. "It was one of my favorite shops to go to," Salazar said. "You just don't move in. I know a lot of different people wouldn't care, but to me, you respect them because they've been here forever." For J.P. Redmon, Manhattan junior, the move in was right on time. "It was rough for a while," Redmon, a skater of 15 years, said. "It's always crappy when kids had to order through mail order. We really needed a shop, and he stepped in at the right time." described as the "worst" job. the sign. Salazar, 22, opened his first skate shop in Garden City when he was 20 from money he saved from in what he "I was in the shipping department of a slaughterhouse, and I'm a vegetarian." he said. Salazar said he wouldn't do as well with a different kind of store. "I like this because it's kind of like the people I roll with," Salazar said. "If I wasn't doing this, I would be at the skate park with the same people." "I couldn't even find a place that was twice the amount here," Salazar said. "Plus we're a pretty 'core' shop." He moved his original operation to Topeka because he wanted to be closer to Lawrence and because Topeka has two skateboarding parks. Salazar chose the Iowa street location because rent is there is cheaper than downtown and it's proximity to the Lawrence skate park at Centennial Park, 600 Rockledge. Core shop meaning that Midwest Skateboarding is more of a hardware store for skateboarding, selling wheels, boards and grips. It's a good location for younger skaters who don't have cars to have a nearby skate shop to buy equipment when their stuff breaks, Redmon said. Another benefit of the location, Salazar said he realized, was his next door neighbor. Domino's Pizza. "I do find myself spending more money on a pizza joint than I ever had before," he said. — Edited by Azita Tafreshi Splish splash Stephanie Farley/KANSAS Leia Garrette 2-year-old Lawrence resident, plays around the fountain in South Park 1100 and 1200 blocks of Massachusetts Street, yesterday afternoon at Art in the Park, Leia's father, Scott Garrette, said she loves water.

She enjoys selling her pies and pasteurized chickens at the market because it provides an opportunity for interaction with customers that can't be found in a supermarket. "The customer can actually see the producer and a trust is built," she said. Elizabeth Kroeker, Topeka senior, woke up at 9 a.m. Saturday to buy baked goods and plants from local gardeners. "It's nice to see people care about their product and want to see you enjoy it," Kroeker, who goes to the market every other Saturday, said. Michael Bates, who sells heirloom vegetables and lamb meat, said the local residents were willing to be a little adventurous with their produce. Heirloom vegetables are open-pollinated varieties of plants that have survived for years. Customers don't mind to experiment with something new, such as his off-colored vegetables, rather than simply going for the basic red tomatoes. simply going to the market. The market is open from 6:30 a.m. to 10:30 a.m. on Saturdays and 4 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

Syam Sidhardan, Dubai, United Arab Emirates, junior, said he used Addlerate to stay up late. He said he would study for finals from 3:30 to 7:30 a.m during his night shifts at Anschutz Library.

"If you have enough sleep and you're just taking it to concentrate, then it helps," Source: University of Kansas libraries Sidhardan said. To stay up, Sidhardan said he occasionally drank Red Bull energy drinks as well. "It just hypes me up and gives me a rush so I don't feel sleepy," he said. David Holmes, professor of psychology, said stimulants like Red Bull could help under certain circumstances but were counterproductive most of the time. "You may still be awake, but you're not processing the information effectively," Holmes said. "It's much better to spread the studying out over time." Humaira Fareed, Lenexa sophomore, said she spent at least 40 hours studying for finals in Anschutz Library last semester. I've seen people do everything caffeine pills, Red Bull or Adderall," Fareed said. "I just do the coffee thing." Fareed said she preferred to study at Anschutz Library because her apartment provided distractions to studying. About a couple thousand students visit Anschutz and Watson libraries each day, said Bill Myers, director of library development. This spring is the sixth consecutive semester that Anschutz and Watson libraries will provide free beverages during finals week, such as lemonade, to students who study there, Myers said. - Edited by Laura Francoviglia ON CAMPUS The Policy Research Institute will sponsor a seminar on "Global Development: The Gender Challenge" by Elaine Zuckerman of Gender Action from noon-1 p.m. today at the Paul Adams Lounge in the Adams Alumni Center.

Johnson and Giddens have remained close through the years, and if no one else believes Giddens can shoulder a team, Johnson does. Next season, Giddens wants to be a leader by example on a team that will have 11 underclassmen. It's a role he has filled before, according to Albert Johnson, athletic assistant at Texas A&M, who watched Giddens lead his high school team to a state championship his senior year. That's why Giddens has a list of offseason goals that he wants to achieve. "J.R can lead with his actions, like playing hard, being unselfish, making the extra pass, being there for his teammates," Johnson said. Kit Leffler/KANSAN "I really want to get better at ball handling, attacking the baskets." Giddens said. "Obviously I need to get better at attacking the basket." Just like anywhere he goes, people at Subway look at him with recognition, but unlike some of his other teammates, fans don't often approach Giddens. Today two young boys sit with an older man in a corner booth. They stare with a look of curiosity, as if wondering if that is J.R. Giddens in line at Subway. They don't approach him. There is something intimidating about Giddens, an element of secrecy. Kansas fans don't quite know him yet. Losing favor Giddens' thefacebook.com account is just an example of what he endured this past season. Dozens of "You suck" and "Giddens you can't hit a shot" KANSAS 15 messages had to be removed from his message board after each log- on. Above: J.R. Giddens fields questions from reporters after this season's March 18 NCAA Tournament loss to Bucknell. Right: One of Gidden's goals next season is to put the ball on the ground more like he did during this game at Iowa State. The bottom line is this: J.R. Giddens didn't make as many shots this year as he did during his freshman season, and he took a great deal of criticism for it. Giddens averaged 11 points and 3.6 rebounds per game his freshman season. He shot 40 percent from three-point range. He was named to the All-Big 12 freshman team. would do that." Giddens said. "Maybe you expect that at the next level, but not at Kansas." After the Bucknell loss alone, he received hundreds of negative messages from fans, he said. There was talk of him jumping to the NBA after just one year in college. Giddens said he never I feel like I play bad more than any body. Imagine working hard your whole life and your whole forte wasn't going well. Basketball wasn't going well for me. One fan even name-called his father and his sister. "I never thought a Kansas fan considered leaving after his first year at Kans a s, but he did get some calls from scouts telling him he was ready for the jump. 9 Giddens said. "They thought my game was good for the league." "Scouts watched a lot of my game on TV and stuff and saw that I had a good freshman season. I could shoot and I could run and jump," After missing almost all of last year's offseason because of foot surgery, Giddens entered his sophomore season with high expectations. He was named to the Preseason All-Big 12 Conference honorable mention team. Self said they were unrealistic expectations for a 19-year-old who missed all of the offseason. "I was trying so hard, but it was just a weird season from the beginning." Giddens said. His points per game dropped to 10.1, while his minutes increased from 25 to 27. He shot just 33 percent from behind the arc this season. But it was the number of three-point shot attempts that initiated criticism. Against Nevada on Nov. 29, he went just 3-8 from behind the arc. He shot 3-10 against South Carolina on Dec. 18. He went two games without a three-pointer against Texas A&M and Kentucky on Jan. 5 and Jan. 9. The criticism continued, and Giddens was well aware of it. "I feel like I play bad more than anybody." Giddens said "Imagine working hard your whole life and your whole forte wasn't going well. Basketball wasn't going well for me." Giddens said midway through the season, he got so caught up in what he was doing wrong that he forgot to enjoy the game. He turned to his teammates, especially his best friend and roommate Jeremy Case, sophomore guard. He worked closely with Self to better his overall game, beyond just shooting. He called Johnson hundreds of times. Johnson told him not to worry about what he wasn't doing; instead focus on helping Kansas win. "It was one of those times that every player goes through," Johnson said. "I told him to listen to coach Self and to focus on the things he could control to get his confidence back up." Kansas coach Bill Self knew that Giddens had lost his confidence, but he never gave up on him. He knew Giddens was caught up in the negative publicity surrounding his season. "I've always thought he thought too much." Self said. "He was worried about doing things that people said he wasn't doing instead of doing things that he needs to do, but it is not intentional." Self worked with Giddens to improve his rebounding, passing and defense. His teammates encouraged him to keep shooting. "I had the greatest teammates," Giddens said.

But the shots didn't fall. Giddens reached a low point after the Jayhawks' home game against Iowa State, Kansas' second straight loss. He went 1-11 from behind the arc, and Kansas fans booed him at the end of the game. "I felt horrible," Giddens said. "I didn't even feel comfortable in my own gym. I felt like people cringed and were like 'J.R. is going to take a shot and he is going to miss.'" In the four games after the Iowa State game, Giddens sank only four three-point shots. He didn't feel like he was taking bad shots; they just weren't falling. Johnson said he could see a change in Giddens' demeanor just from watching him on television. In high school, Johnson used to make Giddens make 1,000 shots a day, part of the reason he was such a confident shooter. Above: Kansas fans were critical of Giddens for most of the season. He was received by boos after a loss at home to Iowa State. He said it was difficult to not do well in his own gym. Left: Giddens slashes through two defenders during the season-ending loss to Bucknell in the NCAA Tournament. "I was focusing so much on making shots and people booing me that I lost confidence in myself." Giddens said. "I could tell his mental focus was off a bit when I talked to him," Johnson said. "A lot of them just weren't falling, but I told him he just had to get his confidence back." Giddens agreed. Anyone who has watched Giddens on the basketball court knows that he is not a player who lacks confidence. The man who tugs at the No. 15 on his jersey every time he hits a three-point shot, throws down a monster jam or assists a play, is known for his energy on the court. That energy, however, can easily be misinterpreted for cockiness, Giddens said. Giddens said he tried to tone down his emotions on the court this season. Fans didn't appreciate the jersey tugging and chest pounding from a player whose shots were clanking off the rim. "I yell and do all of that stuff and people are like 'Oh he is selfish,'" he said. "But they weren't saying that when I was making shots." "My first year here was so beautiful," Giddens said. "But the fans went from liking me to hating me real fast, even though I was out there trying and giving my all." Johnson said Giddens' on-the-court personality matched his persona off of it. "That is how he is on the court and off the court," Johnson said. "His antics may be misinterpreted sometimes. He can come off cocky, but really he is just glad to be at Kansas. The basketball court is almost like a stage for him to let loose and show his emotions." The shots may not have fallen, but his rebounds, assists, blocks and steals all increased, not to mention his defense. By the end of the season, Self was putting Giddens on the opposing team's best offensive player. For as much negativity as Giddens received this past season, he knows he is a better basketball player, mentally and physically. defensive player," Giddens said. "Overall, I was a better player, I just didn't make shots." "Coach Self made me a better At the end of the season, Self told Giddens they couldn't change what happened this past season. They do, however, control next year. "He needs time to get in the gym and work on ball handling and passing and be a better basketball player, and not just shoot the ball," self said. Self isn't shy about telling Giddens what he needs to do. They even have a name for their relationship. season would help Giddens become stronger mentally. "We have a no-bullshit relationship," Giddens said. "If he feels anything he needs to say to me, he can say it. If I feel anything, I can walk into his office and do the same." "Yeah, his shooting percent was down and that is what everyone rests his lulls on," Johnson said "But overall, he improved and he battled through it pretty well for a 19-year-old kid." Looking ahead Before the car can even pull into the parking lot at Jayhawks Towers, Giddens has consumed the entire footlong meatball sub. He hurries up to his fourth floor apartment to catch the tip-off of the NCAA National Championship game. During commercials, Giddens stands in the middle of the room practicing his favorite basketball moves with a volleyball. Giddens is one of the few Jayhawks watching the game. He doesn't, however, seem to enjoy it. He sits in front of the television like a distracted six year old who has eaten too much sugar. "It's less bouncy, better for inside." Giddens said. His favorite move is one where he goes between the legs twice, palms the ball in one hand and potentially blows by his defender. "That is one you'll be seeing a lot of next year." Giddens says. The championship game is intense, and Giddens appears irritated that North Carolina holds on to defeat Illinois and boasts the National Championship trophy. He turns off the TV before CBS can play their annual NCAA Tournament highlight reel with "One Shining Moment" playing in the background. It's not that Giddens was mad that the coach who recruited People may say I am thinking about the NBA and stuff. But really I just want to focus on being the best leader and basketball player I can be. Every day, Giddens is in the weight room, lifting, trying to get stronger. He practices with coaches on individual workouts. He works on his footwork. He has even made a deal with himself. "Ninety percent of the shots take in practice or workouts are going to be off the dribble," Giddens said. "I'm going to work on my outside shot, but you can bet J.R. Giddens is going to shoot off the dribble more next year." him won the coveted national championship trophy, although he admits he never received a phone call from Roy Williams to inform him of his departure If anything, Johnson said this for North Carolina. He said it was just so hard to watch the tournament after the way the Jayhawks went out. Slowly, Giddens is getting over the loss that he blames himself for. Like most of his teammates, Giddens broke down into tears after Kansas' 64-63 first-round loss to Bucknell. "A lot of it was my fault we lost," Giddens "I feel like I let down the fans, my teammates and my family." Giddens sat down to watch the McDonald's All-American high school game, a contest he competed in two years ago. Three Kansas recruits represented the Jayhawks in the showcase: Micah Downs, Mario Chalmers and Julian Wright. Several weeks after the loss, Chalmers stole the show. He scored 20 points and made five assists. He put on a defensive clinic, also collecting five steals and four rebounds. In a 10-second time span, Chalmers drained a three-point shot, stole the ensuing inbound pass and knocked down another three. "Oh man," Giddens said. "That kid can play." Thirty seconds later, his cell phone rings. A loud voice can be heard yelling on the other line. It is Giddens' pal C.J. Giles, freshman forward. "Did you see that, man?" Giles says to Giddens on the phone. Clearly, the returning Jayhawks are excited about next year's team. They are going to be young, but Self thinks they will be quicker, allowing them to be more effective in the press and in transition. "We'll be so young and green and we won't know what we are doing," Self said. "But we will be fast and athletic, and that is fun to think about that." After the McDonald's game is finished, Giddens looked relieved. The kind of relief a person has when they realize their luck is about to change. "I just have to keep working hard this offseason to make sure that next year is better than this one." Giddens said. He vows to be a more complete player. A leader. A guy who can go off the dribble, but is still a threat from the outside. The athlete who grabs an ally-oop pass out of the air and slams it down over a defender. The best defensive player on the team. Giddens wants to be all of those. That is what drives J.R. Giddens. Gildds will tough out his tired legs. He opens the door leading to the players lounge next to the Kansas locker room. "People may say I am thinking about the NBA and stuff," Giddens said. "But really I just want to focus on being the best leader and basketball player I can be." "My legs hurt so bad from this karate that we have been doing," Giddens said. "But we look good in three-on-three. People better watch out." Two weeks ago, after another offseason work out, Giddens walks slow and stiff. "Is anyone hungry?" Giddens asks his teammates.

STAYSKA TRIGUNE MEI SERVICES Wayne Stayskal/Knight Ridder/Tribune PAGE 7A ▼ FILOSOFO GALLEGO PETER WILSON Autonomy does not always imply self-enlightenment DEVIN SIKES dsikes@kansan.com As a young boy, Dennis had always dreamed of being an astronaut. His inspiration first came when he heard David Bowie's "Life on Mars," although he never admitted to his friends that he only knew the words to the chorus of the song. The song evoked images of little silver saucers, green men and ant farms devoid of gravity. Like any other Saturday, Dennis, now 30, lay on the couch with a heroin needle sticking out of one arm and the TV remote in the hand of the other, wondering how it all went wrong. Growing up in Jersey, Dennis's childhood was full of pleasant memories. Because he called the Garden State home, albums and posters of the Boss — Bruce Springsteen — were scattered about his bedroom floor. At age 10, Dennis searched the stores on Newark to find those amazing jeans Bruce had worn on the cover of the "Born in the USA" album, but he could never find a pair that grasped the essence that was Springsteen's ass. At age 15, every day Dennis would practice the Bon Jovi riffs that lined the pages of the latest Guitar World. Yet those carefree days of leotards and hairspray seemed to disappear throughout time somewhere, between 15 and 20. Dennis recalled that his life took a different turn. During high school, Dennis' best friend Eugene always wore his favorite Motley Crue shirt and matching sweatpants every Monday, Wednesday and Friday to class. Dennis tried to remember what it was that jolted his train off the track, as it were. He recalled those who had been the most important to him during his life: his family and friends. Dennis's parents, Hamilton and Carol, were as odd a couple as you could find. It was rumored that Hamilton was lost for five years in the early 70s while a roadie for Black Sabbath, whereas Carol had won tickets to the local Black Sabbath show under the impression that it was some sort of church where everyone wore all-black outfits to Sunday service. Yet Dennis recognized his parents had always offered their unconditional love and support and they were not the culprits of his undoing. The two had been good friends and, in fact, Dennis The two had even tried to start a band, but the local radio station said that Eugene sounded too much like Steve Perry, and that type of rock "wasn't exactly in' anymore." Lying face down on the vomit-stained carpet, Dennis thought perhaps it was love that, like the drugs currently in his system, made him nauseous and had derailed his life. Some of his failed relationships had been intense and emotional, while others were baucheries and were what he considered to be his sexual revolution. knew Eugene was not to blame because the two shared an indescribable passion for the band journey. Summoning to mind all the relationships that had come and gone, Dennis laughed as memories of moments, high and low, had become cherished treasures stowed in his mind. Then, in that exact instant, an epiphany struck Dennis: he had always been in control of his own destiny. He realized it was not fate or predestination guiding his every move; rather, it was he who was responsible for his own actions: good and bad, beautiful and ugly, significant and unimportant. Crawling to the corner of the room on all fours, Dennis proceeded to snort last week's paycheck up his nose, and he gracefully passed out with his face against the wall. Sitting up and staring at the boogers that formed a mini Mt. Everest on the coffee table, Dennis realized it was he, not some God or mystical figure, that had been acting in the shell known as his own body. ♦ Sikes is a Wichita senior in philosophy and Spanish. Churchill essay not based on merit but radicalism A RIGHT TURN University of Colorado professor Ward Churchill and his controversial essay, "Some People Push Back: On the Justice of Roosting Chickens," has met harsh criticism in the past few months for proclaiming that America was ultimately responsible for the attacks on Sept. 11. VINCE MYERS vmyers@kansan.com His supporters have screamed that no one is willing to take Churchill's angry rant seriously. So, in the spirit of fairness, I will try my best to do so. First, though, let me say that my reluctance to First, though, let me say that I take Churchill's essay seriously stems from my confusion of what, exactly, I should be taking seriously. Should I be taking his comparison of World Trade Center victims to Nazis seriously? Certainly even his staunchest defenders must concede that such an argument is more hotheaded name-calling than real argumentation. Or maybe I should take seriously his insistence that the United States responded to the Sept. 11 attacks by hanging its "abundant supply of major war criminals," including George H.W. Bush, Colin Powell, Bill Clinton and Madeleine Albright? or his belief that the true personification of evil is "that malignant toad known as Madeline Albright, squatting in her studio chair like Iabba the Hutt"? While Churchill gives the benefit of every doubt to Hussein, he readily labels the Sept. 11 victims as "little Eichmanns." What the essay lacks in logic makes up for in radicalism. The problem is that Churchill's "scholarly" indictment of American foreign policy lacks any sort of scholarly protocol. He squandered the opportunity to make a well-spoken argument that U.S. policy was unfair toward Iraq and instead resorted to name calling and Nazi comparisons. His essay may as well have been co-authored by a sixth grader. Cutting through all the hateful rambling, the major point of Churchill's essay is that America's sanctions against Iraq — imposed in 1990 after Iraq invaded Kuwait — forced the Sept. 11 hijackers to attack the United States. As for the merit of the sanctions, different people will give different opinions. Studies by the First of all, the sanctions were not unilateral, as Churchill seems to believe, but were supported by the United Nations as well. Secondly, the hijackers had no connections to Iraq. Most were Saudi nationals. The terrorist group that orchestrated the attacks, Al Qaeda, had no working relationship with Iraq or Saddam Hussein, as many war dissenters have pointed out. It is doubtful that the Sept. 11 attacks had anything to do with the sanctions against Iraq. In a 1998 New York Times article, Philip Shenon noted that Hussein spent hundreds of millions of dollars on new palaces rather than improving living conditions for his people. United Nations and various other groups conclude that the sanctions, which were necessary to keep Iraq from rebuilding its military after the Persian Gulf War, hurt Iraqi civilians. But the apathy of Saddam Hussein toward that suffering has also been documented. he realized that its sanctions were harming the Iraqi people as early as 1991, and, according to Shenon, offered an oil-for-food program to Iraq that same year. Iraq rejected the plan originally because it wanted the sanctions completely removed or nothing at all. In 1995, Hussein finally accepted. Why? It might have had something to do with the $10 billion he illegally garnered through the program in its seven-year lifespan. In the late 1990s, the United States started to work toward a "smart sanctions" program for Iraq, in which more food and medicine would be given to Iraq, and controls on weapon-related materials would be tightened. Britain, Germany and France supported the plan, but Iraq, backed by Russia on the U.N. Security Council, refused. As former Iraqi Vice President Taha Yassin Ramadan told CNN in July 2001. "Any resolution that doesn't clearly mention the unconditional lifting of sanctions will not be met favorably." Hussein sacrificed the well-being of his people to guilt the United Nations into lifting the sanctions on Iraq. Had the United Nations budged, it would have sent the message that the best way to fight sanctions was to starve civilians. Churchill's claim that the murder of thousands of innocent people on Sept. 11 was justified by the United Nation's sanctions is vile and unwarranted. While Churchill gives the benefit of every doubt to Hussein, he readily labels the Sept. 11 victims "little Eichmanns," in reference to one of the lead Nazis in World War II. What the essay lacks in logic it makes up for in radicalism. Churchill's supporters should decide if hateful rhetoric and radical anti-Americanism is something they really want to stand behind.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR 'Kansan' misses point in article about block funding for student organizations Last Friday, the Kansan ran an article entitled "Hard up for Money," which painted a picture in which many multicultural student organizations were being denied block funding, a mechanism in which "organizations receive an unfettered amount of money" according to the article. Block funding goes through the same rigorous process as any other financial consideration made by Student Senate. The difference is the burden upon student groups, which is easily twice as much; they are required to have a paid treasurer and outline a two-year budget. The table in the article that meant to illustrate the "difference" between 1999 block and 2005 line-item funding failed to point out that Asian- American Student Union is receiving more money via line-item than they did in block. Many at this University fail to notice the internal burden of projecting every expenditure groups intend to make over the course of the next two years which for small but growing groups like the First Nations Student Association means being trapped within their previous projections, and not realizing more current success. In closing, instead of addressing the reality of funding and its guidelines, the article that was run only instigates hard feelings between multicultural organizations and Student Senate. Nolan T.

Kansas (29-21, 6-11 Big 12) relied on home runs to clinch the series victory yesterday afternoon, 6-4. Game three served as a successful combination of an anemic offense in Friday night's 0-7 loss in Manhattan and the 15-11 victory on Saturday after returning to Lawrence. Friday night's game one looked nothing like the final two games of the series for Kansas, which was held scoreless and managed only two hits on the evening. It marked Kansas' first shutout in 27 games. "That's like the first time that we've been dominated all year." coach Ritch Price said. "If we'd pull out that first inning, it might have been 0-0 in the seventh the way both guys were pitching." Junior right-hander Kodiak Quick (8-5) took the loss for the Jayhawks. After surrendering five runs in the top of the first, Quick settled down and lasted until the eighth. Junior right-hander Chase Mitchell picked up the Wildcats only victory on the weekend. Mitchell threw a complete game, two-hit shutout. The series moved to Lawrence for game two and the Jayhawks went back to their normal, hard-hitting ways that were absent in game one. Kansas tied the series at a game apiece after the 15-11 victory under the glow of the new Hoglund Ballpark scoreboard, which Van Slyke christened by hitting it with his 10th homer of the year.

The two victories improved Kansas' record to 28-19 and 7-7 in Big 12 Conference play. Destiny Frankenstein, junior shortstop, said with all the upsets going on in the conference, she thought Kansas was right at the top of the mix. The pitching staff allowed three hits in each game in Her previous mark was 10, which she tied last Thursday. Bunge said Settlemier felt good physically. She said her curve ball and screw ball were working effectively over the weekend. Lubbock, Texas. Serena Settlemier, junior pitcher, threw her second consecutive shutout on Saturday after holding North Dakota State to no runs last Thursday. She also set a career high with 14 strikeouts. "Her screwball was moving away from left handed hitters, and she got them out swinging at pitches away from the plate." Bunge said. Kassie Humphreys, sophomore pitcher, and Christina Ross, freshman pitcher, helped Seftlemier shut down the Red Raiders on Saturday. It was her 13th of the season, and the solo shot gave the Jayhawks a 4-0 lead. She broke Leah Tabb's previous mark of 12. "It's feels great.

The remaining three games are against Big 12 opponents which will determine postseason positioning. THE RANT Added game cuts class time for athletes The hypocrisy among the NCAA and university presidents continued last week as they approved adding a 12th game and allowing Division I-A teams to count victories against I-AA foes toward bowl games every season. While everyone in their right mind knows that the NCAA needs a playoff system, the university presidents said they do not want to lengthen the season, keeping athletes out of the classroom. This lengthens the season for teams and made it easier for them to qualify for bowl games. While the additional game will occur during a team's bye week, it may mean that players who are traveling to play the additional game will miss class time on Friday. Edited by Lori Bettes A playoff system would likely take place in early January, when students are on winter break. Yet the NCAA decided to add a game during the fall, when athletes are in class. Allowing victories against I-AA teams each season makes it easier for teams to qualify for bowls, thus lengthening the season. Then it should have created a four-team playoff format that would have only added one more game. The changes contradict what the university presidents have said for years about a potential playoff system. While the decision to increase the number of games to 12 is a good decision, the NCAA could have left the number of games at 11. NCAA president Myles Brand told The Associated Press that a playoff system needs to be looked at. So maybe the NCAA TOMMY RYAN COLAIANNI rcolaianni@kansan.com The NCAA needs a postseason playoff system for football, but it may interfere with the players' class schedule. will begin to take steps in the right direction because it needs to be done. The BCS system is a joke. Three teams last season finished the season undefeated and with legitimate claims for a national title: University of Southern California, Auburn and Utah. There was a split national champion for the second year in a row. The Associated Press has backed out of including its poll rankings in the BCS formula. Everyone sees that the BCS is a problem other than the people who make the decisions. Why wouldn't the presidents agree with changing the bowl system to a playoff format? An eightteam playoff would be optimal, but even a fourteam playoff would be an improvement.

Kansas beats record, not Texas Rowing team's best time still 5 seconds behind Longhorns ROWING BY KRISTEN JARBOE kjarboe@kansan.com KANSAN SCRIPTWRITER It was a record-breaking weekend for the Kansas rowing team, as the Jayhawks took second among three teams at the Big 12 Conference Championship in Austin, Texas. The first varsity eight boat broke a five-year-old Kansas record on Saturday with a time of 6.31.5. Team members were coxswain Crystal Reed and rowers Erin Hennessey, Kris Lazar, Jennifer Ebel, Kristy Hainer, Jelaya Da Silva, Gillian Van Ruyen, Alexis Boston and Rachel Chapman. "In my 20 years of rowing, that is the fastest eight I've ever had," coach Rob Catloth said. PETER MORGAN Overall, Kansas accumulated 45 team points. Texas took first with 53 points and Kansas State took third with 40 points. --- "They raced really well today," --- Catloth Hennessey Maryann Hogan Catloth said. "They were a little disappointed in the final outcome because they wanted to beat Texas, but I was really proud of how they rowed." Kansas was first off the line and took the lead for the first 1,000 meters. But in the last 500 meters, Texas took the lead and K-State wasn't even in the picture, Hennessey said. The last time Kansas and Texas raced, the Longhorns won by 10 seconds. Texas won by five seconds on Saturday. Reed "It was the best race I've had in my four years at KU." Hennessey said. "I don't think they expected us to be that ready and be that competitive." The team had wanted to set the school record all season, Reed said. "We definitely raced our hearts out," Reed said. "It was the best race we've had all year." This helps us keep our spir- The Jayhawks were excited about breaking the record, but still upset about the loss to the Longhorns. "Our goal was to beat Texas today," Hennessey said. "Breaking the record was kind of like the icing on the cake, but it doesn't overshadow losing to Texas. It was a bittersweet day. We just need to look at the bigger picture and realize that we have improved so much." A lot of this improvement comes from the coaching staff, Reed said. "Rob did a really good job preparing us for today, mentally," she said. "He really pumped us up to show that we had the potential to beat Texas. It's really uplifting to see a coach excited for his team, and Rob was completely ecstatic that we broke the record." The first varsity four and second varsity eight boats also took second to Texas. The Jayhawks took third in the first novice four and first novice eight. "We raced really well today," Reed said. "We've made a lot of progress with our speed, which makes us more confident. Knowing how fast we raced today really put us in good standing for training in the next two weeks." Kansas will compete in the NCAA Central/Southern Regionals May 14-15 in Oak Ridge, Tenn., when the team will have another opportunity to race against Texas. Edited by Jesse Truesdale MEN'S GOLF Jayhawks finish tournament in sixth BY TIM HALL hall@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER The University of Kansas men's golf team didn't have its way at the Big 12 Championships this weekend in Trinity, Texas. Whispering Pines Golf Course proved to be a difficult all weekend. Its narrow fairways and tall rough led to no teams finishing under par for the tournament. The Jayhawks fired three consecutive rounds above stroke to Texas A&M. The Aggies finished the tournament with a total score of 909. 300 as a team, but managed to finish the tournament alone in sixth place. As a team, the Jayhawks shot a three-round total of 910, 46-over-par, and missed fifth place by one Oklahoma State proved that it was the No. 1 team in the nation, as the Cowboys captured their fourth Big 12 title in school history. Oklahoma State won the tournament by nine strokes over Oklahoma, shooting a total score of 868. 4-over-par. Ward Oklahoma's Anthony Kim won the individual championship by six strokes with a three-round total of 208, 8-under-par. Kansas coach Ross Randall said that he would classify his team's play as mediocre at best. "If you hit bad shots on a difficult golf course, you will pay for them," Randall said. "But we'll regroup from this just as we always do." The Jayhawks struggled the most in the second round, tallying eight double bogeys. They had 14 double bogeys or worse for the tournament. No Jayhawk golfer fired a round of under-par golf all weekend. The one bright spot for the Jayhawks was the play of senior Kevin Ward, who finished in a tie for 15th. While the rest of the team struggled on Saturday and yesterday, Ward improved. He struggled in the opening round, shooting a 7-over-par 79. On Saturday Ward was on target, firing an even round of 72. Yesterday he kept his composure and made it into the clubhouse with a round of 74. "All weekend long I worked hard on my swing and my putting." Ward said. "I came back strong from the 79. I knew I would shoot a low round somewhere." Senior Andrew Price and sophomore Gary Woodland both finished the tournament in a tie for 37th, with total scores of 233. Sophomore Tyler Docking and junior Luke Trammell both finished in a tie for 39th with scores of 234. Though Randall was disappointed in his team's play this weekend, three of the five teams the Jayhawks finished behind are ranked in the top 25 by Golfweek, and Oklahoma State is the top team in the nation. The Jayhawks played well enough in the regular season to earn a spot in the NCAA Central Regionals. The Jayhawks will have another three weeks off to practice and prepare. The team will then head to South Bend, Ind., to compete in the regionals on May 19-21. Randall said he was pleased about the berth. "I think that this team has a chance to play and compete in the nationals," Randall said. "We can be a great team when we play like we're capable of."

MONDAY, MAY 2. 2005 ... SPORTS THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN CLUBS Teams compete despite chilly weather TRENDING Rachel Seymour/KANSAN Andy Nissen, sophomore transfer from Minnesota State, performs in the men's slalom late Saturday morning at the waterski club's tournament. Nissen took fifth in the men's slalom and the Jayhawks finished first among the seven other competing universities. BY FRANK TANKKAN fankan@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER It was the KU waterski club's spring tournament, and cars filled with parents lined the small lake. Happy dogs splashed in the water and shook themselves on people while a few guys threw horseshoes. Some competitors changed into wet suits and prepared to ski, while others curled up on the grass in blankets and sleeping bags, and tried to keep dry as the cold wind whipped the water and blew in their faces. Caitlin Gillian, Chicago freshman, shivered near the shore with the members of the Kansas team, 45 minutes after she skied in the trick event. "My nipples could cut glass after I got out," she said. The cold weather wasn't a problem for the team and it finished in first place. The family of Carin Olson, Minneapolis, Minn., sophomore, who made the long drive south to watch her ski, ran a concession stand to benefit the Kansas team. On the water, a boat pulled Rachael Hudson, Topeka junior, toward the 5-foot jump near the middle of the lake. She reached the top of the jump and soared through the air. As her skis hit the water 35 feet later, she tried to lean back but her body jurched forward and crashed into the cold water. She wiped out again on her second attempt, but landed her final jump of 35 feet. It wasn't enough to place her in the top five. This tournament was a tune up, said Amy Bing, KU Waterski Team president. It was an important one for the five KU skiers who will compete in the National Collegiate "It's just a chance for everybody to get together before All-Stars and the summertime," Bing, Wichita junior, said. "And we're really good friends with the other teams." Six teams competed in the tournament: Kansas State, Iowa State, Purdue, Emporia State, Southwest Missouri State and Missouri. They came into town Friday night in vans, cars and buses. Blake Hines, Southwest Missouri State sophomore, decided not to ski because of the cold. He said he enjoyed the event anyway. "It's good to see the same people every year," he said. "It's fun to go to other people's houses. And then they come to your house. It's kind of a reciprocal thing." Some of the visitors camped west of town at Lonestar Lake, In past years the teams camped at MoKan Lake, a few miles east of Lawrence where the KU team practices and the tournament is held. Because camping tore up the land, teams spent the night elsewhere this year, said Jason Lewis, Anthony senior and one of the team's captains. while others spent the night at the house where five of the KU waterskiers live. On Saturday people lounged around, while others competed in the slalom and trick events in the morning and the jump in the afternoon. Some parents drove in to see their children ski. Natalie Steutermann, Kansas State sophomore, was eager to show her skills off to her seven family members, who had never seen her ski before. Steutermann fell on her first two jumps but landed her third. Her family congratulated her The Kansas, Kansas State and Missouri waterski club teams competed during the weekend at Mokan Lake, east of Lawrence on Kansas Highway 10.

Edited by Jennifer Voldness Colaianni CONTINUED FROM PAGE 18 The current bowl system wouldn't have to be changed. Simply change the BCS bowls to the playoff ones. Teams would still be able to qualify for postseason play even if they were not included in the BCS playoff bowls. That's what the NCAA is most interested in: money. Claiming that it wants what is best for the athletes is false. The television ratings for a playoff system would be astronomical, allowing the NCAA to charge more for the television rights to show the games. The NCAA is a business, driven by college football. While men's basketball may be profitable, it is nothing close to the money maker that big-time Division I football programs are. Switching to a playoff system would also increase the popularity drastically. While you are not going to see office pools circulating like those for the men's basketball tournament, the casual fan would certainly be intrigued and watch the playoffs even if his team is not included. If the system was a four-game playoff, the first-round games should be held in prime time on back-to-back nights. The ratings would be huge and the championship game could get ratings higher than the men's basketball championship. The championship game should be two weeks after the first round of the playoffs. This problem needs to be solved quickly, or fans will likely see more split national champions and more uncertainty as to who is the nation's top team. COLLEGE FOOTBALL - Colaiani is a McLean, Va, sophomore in journalism and political science. Bowl eligibility easier with new NCAA rule BY RYAN COLAiani尼 rcolaiani@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWITER Expect to see a Division I-AA opponent on the Kansas football schedule for the next couple of seasons. The NCAA approved a rule last week that will allow Division I-A teams to count one victory against a I-AA school each season for bowl consideration. The NCAA also chose to lengthen the regular season by one game, to 12, beginning in 2006. *The game will take place during what is now bwe week. What is good bye week? This is good news for the Kansas football team, as it will face Division I-AA Appalachian State this fall. Kansas had counted a victory against Jacksonville State in 2003 for a trip to the Tangerine Bowl, and under the previous rule, it would not have been able to count the Appalachian State game toward bowl eligibility. Chancellor Chancellor Robert Hemenway served as the chairman for the board of directors who approved the rule change. Now the Jayhawks will need to go 6-5 to qualify for a bowl rather than 7-4 under the 11-game schedule in 2005. Senior Associate Athletics Director Larry Keating said he planned to have a I-AA team on the schedule in 2006 and 2007, so the games could be played at Memorial Stadium. "We can play a I-AA team every year, and that is what we are going to do at least for the next couple of years," Keating said. Keating said in March that Kansas planned on being able to count a victory against a I-AA team when they scheduled Appalachian State. Kansas thought then the change would be made. The NCAA has not yet decided if a 6-6 record will qualify teams for a bowl game when the season goes to 12 games in 2006. Keating said he did not think that the NCAA would require a 7-5 record for teams to qualify for bowls. "There may be a difference between BCS bowls and regular bowls," Keating said. "One of the things they have to look at is the bowl agreements that are in place now stipulate that six wins is all that is required." Keating also said that if a 7-5 record was needed for each bowl that there might not be enough teams that qualify for bowls each season. Kansas qualified for the Tangerine Bowl with a 6-6 record in 2003. - Edited by Laura Francoviglia Miles Kennedv/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS It's running men molly mcgees grill & bar Mexican Mondays: $1 Tacos $2 Coronas & Margaritas Edward Cox (2) outruns Bent Lancaster (1) and Wilford Scott (3) to win the mens' masters 75-plus 100-meter dash at the 2005 Penn Relsays, Saturday in Philadelphia.

The teams combined to put 22 hits on the board. Kansas once again found itself behind early after Kansas State scored twice in the top of the first. The Jayhawks answered back with five runs in the bottom half of the inning, and the hitting rally was on. Senior right-hander Andrew Rebar (3-0) picked up the victory in relief. Rebar allowed one run in 2/3 innings of work. Czyz picked up his sixth save of the season on Saturday night. Senior right-hander Eric Rollins (2-3) took the loss for the Wildcats. "He was really special onight. It's nice to see him rebounding." coach Price said. "He's a really tough young man and he's made phenomenal progress. He's one of the guys that I'm most proud of his development in our program." Freshman second baseman Ryne Price led the way at the plate for Kansas going 2-5 with four RBIs. Those RBis put him at 34 on the season, a record for a Kansas freshman. Senior infielder Andy Scholl and junior outfielders Gus Milner and A.J. Van Slyke homered against the Wildcats in the series finale. Van Slyke, who also homered in game two on Saturday, hit his team-leading 11th home run in the series finale. In the bottom of the third, with freshman third baseman Erik Morrison on base, Van Slyke drove a long fly ball to left center field. At the wall, Blunt went up for the catch only to help the Jayhawks by tipping the ball over the fence with the webbing of his glove. The home run tied the game at two. "It was pretty nice when it hit his glove and bounced over." Van Slyke said. "But I knew that I hit it high enough and the wind was blowing hard enough. I wasn't surprised." Junior first baseman Jared Schweitzer tagged a base hit in the bottom of the second to move his conference hitting streak to 18 games. His streak ties for the longest in the Big 12 this season. Nebraska shortstop Joe Simokaitis also had an 18-game streak earlier in the season. "It's nice to get it out of the way in the first at bat and not have to worry about it," Schweitzer said. I think this is about as proud of our club as I've been in my three years here." Ritch Price Kansas coach L, 22 He also revealed his secret strategy that he uses to keep the hits coming. "I think it's the hair that does it," Schweitzer said. "That's why my hair is so long and I look all dirty. As soon as I don't get a hit, I'll cut it." After Kansas State (23-20, 7-14 Big 12) struck first, leading 2-0 in the third, Van Slyke's home run tied the game in the bottom of the third. The Jayhawks went ahead in the fourth and never looked back. Despite the error, Blunt led the Wildcat offense in the final game of the series. He went 2-5 at the plate, drove in a run and scored twice in the defeat. Senior left-hander Mike Zagurski (5-4) threw a solid outing against the Wildcats, lasting into the eighth inning. He allowed two runs on five hits, struck out seven and walked four batters in 7.2 "I told him before he went out there that the key was to not walk anybody and try to put single digit runs on the board, rather than crooked numbers," coach Price said. "That was the best performance he's had in the two years he's been here." innings pitched. After a couple of rough outings, Zagurski was pleased with the outcome yesterday. "My last two starts have not been very good," Zagurski said. "I could prevent the three-run homer from happening by keeping guys off base. I was fortunate enough to do that." Junior closer Don Czyz picked up his seventh save of the season after relieving Zagurski in the eighth, despite giving up a two-run home run to junior infielder Barrett Rice in the top of the ninth. Junior right-hander Adam Cowart (6-3) took the loss for Kansas State. "I think that is about as proud of our club as I've been in my three years here," coach Price said. "You get it taken to you pretty good on Friday night and then bounce back like we did this weekend. I'm really proud of the pride and character we showed this weekend."

Go to both. Go to book. That's what the Kansas track and field team did this weekend. Coach Stanley Redwine led half of the team into Des Moines, Iowa, for the Drake Relays. Amy Linnen, senior pole vaulter, Benson Chesang, junior distance runner, and Sheldon Battle, junior thrower, led the other half into Philadelphia for the Penn Relays. The Penn relays, in its 111 year history, brings in talent from high schools, universities and Olympic training facilities worldwide. The Jayhawks proved worthy opponents with three first-place finishes. Battle won the men's shot put with the mark of 65 feet, .912 inches. His victory updated his current No. 1 ranking in the Big 12 Conference. "I felt good. I knew there were a lot of good guys here, and I've been executing well," Battle said. Amy Linnen took home another victory as she won the women's pole vault. The senior vaulted 13 feet,10 inches,setting a new Penn Relays record. She vaulted five inches higher than the second place finisher, Arkansas' Stacy Manuel. Benson Chesang won the men's 5,000-meter run. He also won the men's invitational mile last weekend at the Kansas Relays. In his first trip to the Penn Relays, and his first effort of the season in the 5,000-meter race, Chesang finished in the time of 13:57.42. His time vaulted him to third place in the Big 12. The highlight of the meet, Redwine said, was the men's 4x800 meter relay. Mike Rost, Cameron Schwehr, Brandon Hodges and Joshi Madathil fin- issued third behind Big 12 rivals Kansas State and Missouri. The best 4x800 team couldn't compete because of the split. Redwine said, but the four's performances were their best. "Mike Rost ran a personal best and set the team up for success. Joshy Mandathil ran a solid leg." Redwine said. "We're definitely excited." Rost ran the first leg of the relay team. The Wichita sophomore ran 1:52.8, his best time in the 800-meter run. In his first trip to the Drake Relays, Rost said he was pushed by the excitement.

Tomorrow the Jayhawk Express bus route and the Naismith/Oliver bus routes will start a two-week trial test of a type of diesel fuel made with soybean oil. Blake Huff, Larned senior and campus transportation coordinator, said KU on Wheels was looking for a fuel source that was more environmentally friendly. The fuel will be tested on older buses to see what effect it will have on the engines, Huff said. The biodiesel fuel the University will use is a mixture of 80 percent number one diesel fuel, a more refined and more expensive type ofDiesel, and 20 percent soybean oil. More commonly, the 20 to 80 percent mixture is called B20. What's cooking in biodiesel: Biodiesel is created from separating glycerin from fat or vegetable oil from crops, usually soybeans. BENEFITS OF BIODIESEL FUEL One of the problems that keeps schools from switching over to biodiesel fuel is balancing between the advantages of the fuel and its cost. - Biodiesel emits 67% less hydrocarbons than regular diesel. "One of the biggest advantages is that it is a renewable resource," said Kyle McNorton, manager for Capital City Oil, Inc. to Topeka. ▶ Bio diesel emits 47% less carbon monoxide and particulate matter than regular diesel Biodiesel B20 degrades twice as fast as regular diesel. Source: National Biodiesel Board The company is mixing the oil for the University. He said the aroma that the gas produced reminded him of french fries, but it wasn't overpowering. The new fuel acts as a detergent that cleans out the fuel pumps and also gives the buses "more punch per gallon." McNorton said. But, he said the fuel was significantly more expensive than regular diesel. Yesterday, the price for a gallon of number one diesel fuel was $2.50 and the price for 100 percent biodiesel was $3.75 per gallon. Because the fuel mixes 80 percent of the number one diesel and 20 percent of the biodiesel, the cost of B20 was about $2.75 per gallon. Another cost that the University will face with the testing of the B20 fuel is the initial upkeep. Last week KU on Wheels purchased the number one diesel at $2.55 per gallon. In the long run, the detergent and lubricative properties of the biodiesel will help keep the bus engines running longer, but fuel filters will become clogged more often due to the cleaning. Capital City Oil is selling the fuel to the University at a discounted price — $50 per week more than the regular price of fuel. "That's one thing I think is great about implementing the program now," said Jeff Dunlap, former student body vice president. "Cost isn't that much of a concern at this point because, as the price of regular fuel goes up, the cost of the biodiesel goes comparatively lower." Dunlap also said that logistical problems, such as locating a temporary fuel tank and massive amounts of paperwork, had slowed down the process, which was one of KUnited's platform issues last year. He said he hoped that the trial run would convince everybody on campus to switch to the cleaner burning fuel. ▼ CAMPUS EMPLOYMENT Staff finds life work after service closes Director to retire, two employees still looking for jobs BY DANI LITT dlltt@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITE He is in his 28th year of directing the printing services and is going to retire on June 30. "I probably would have retired at the end of the year, not in the middle of the year," he said. John Sayler, 65, is one of three employees from the University of Kansas Printing Services that has not been placed in another position. A veteran in printing services, Sayler said he enjoyed the ability to develop the services budget, services and products. The service was not given any money by the University. "It was like running your own business," he said. "That very much appealed to me." KU Printing Services had 22 employees at the time of its January closing,19 of which have been placed by the University in other positions at the University or at other businesses. "We were seeing a change in technology and the types of services that the campus was requesting," said Beth Warner, INSIDE: Find out what organization is moving into the building after KU Printing Services closes. Page 2A. assistant vice provost for information service said. The University printed a multitude of materials, such as brochures, business cards, letterheads, books, and more. The 22 employees were left without jobs when the University Printing Services announced its closing in January. Only two employees were able to keep their original jobs with campus mail. Campus mail switched from Printing Services to the libraries. The other two employees are still in the process of finding positions, Warner said. Betty Vincent, a KU employee for 20 years, was given a new job after the closing. Vincent worked at printing services for 10 years and was a senior administrative assistant. She is now an administrative assistant at the Hall Center for Humanities. "It was sad," Vincent said. "But I understand changes have to be made so you do the best you can with the circumstances." Vincent said she was happy with the rehiring process and was never out of a job during the transition. "Any change in a job brings adjustments," she said. "Each department has its own style of doing things." SEE SERVICE ON PAGE 3A Former University of Kansas Printing Services employee, Betty Vincent, works yesterday at her new job.

Stephanie Farley/KANSAN STUDENT SENATE Coalition still battling BY JOSHUA BICKEL jbickel@kansan.com KANSEL STAFF WRITER The Student Voice coalition is planning an immediate appeal for the latest election violation the coalition was found guilty of, said Jack Connor, Student Voice coalition member. PETER Dennis Chanay, Student Voice member, said he expected to win the appeal because of the impartial jury during that process. Chanay said that he didn't know who would handle the appeal but that the elections commission had been biased throughout the process. Yesterday, the elections commission found Student Voice guilty of violating rule number 491, which states that no coalition may break a state, city or University of Kansas ordinance. The violation concerned Student Voice's campaigning in front of Budig Hall on April 7. A Student Voice member was distributing soft drinks on University property without permission, which led Arthur Jones, KUnited member, to file the complaint the next day. Chanay The commission fined Student Voice $25 as a result. The commission delayed the decision for a week after one of the members had a family emergency and had to leave the meeting on April 25. Connor argued that the offending Connor noted that Colbert stopped soliciting when a KU Public Safety officer arrived and told him to leave or he would be charged with trespassing. "But ignorance of the rule is no reason to break it," Luke Thompson, chairman of the elections commission, said during the April 25 hearing. Student Voice member, Daniel Colbert, was not aware of the rules regarding campaigning. This is the 10th election violation Student Voice has been charged with during this year's Student Senate election. Connor, Overland Park freshman, and Chanay, Paola freshman, both disagreed with the decision of the election commission. Colbert was never able to appear in his defense or notified of the rule he broke, Connor said, citing his reasons of disagreement with the decision. He said that the elections commission had no jurisdiction over the matter. Thompson declined to comment on the commission's decision. Chanay also expressed his displeasure with the elections commission, saying that it has overstepped its boundaries numerous times. Violations and appeals distracted Student Voice during this year's election from addressing the real issues, Chanay said. "These violations have hampered us," Connor said last week. "We've spent more time in here than we have campaigning." Connor added that it seemed like the elections commission wasn't helping them, but was instead "out to get them." "We're just known as the guys on the front page breaking all the rules," Connor said.

PAGE 7A AGRICULTURE Cold could hurt wheat WICHITA — Kansas farmers who had recently savored the prospects of an abundant winter wheat harvest are now fearful late spring freezes may have severely damaged the crop. BY ROXANA HEGEMAN THE ASSOCIATED PRESS At his farm near Colby in the state's northwestern corner, Mike Brown was out yesterday checking his fields after temperatures dipped into the 20s in recent days. But it has not warmed up enough to see how bad the crop was damaged. "Hopefully, it didn't hurt us." Brown said in a phone interview from his fields. The tips on the wheat leaves have turned brown on Brown's farm. On Friday, he cut open a wheat plant and was pleased to discover that the seed head inside still looked yellow and viable. Agricultural Statistics Service reported yesterday. About 19 percent of the crop showed light freeze damage, while 7 percent had moderate damage and 1 percent severe damage. Preliminary wheat freeze damage reports indicate 73 percent of the wheat has not been damaged, Kansas It has been three years since Brown has harvested a wheat crop, and his wheat four years ago was nothing to brag about. Hall destroyed his crop the day before harvest one year, and a long drought has decimated the other recent crops. "I always have hope until it's too late," Brown said. "Wheat looks better out here than it has in four to six years. It is a question now of whether we are going to have anything or not." But many farmers have yet to determine how much of their crop was hurt by the snow and frost that hit parts of Kansas this week. clops. He is not alone. It has been as bad, or worse, for many of his neighbors in the drought-plagued corner of Kansas. Statewide, about 12 percent of the wheat had already headed, KASS reported yesterday.

Kansas basketball legend Wilt Chamberlain once lived in the room that is now the KU Public Safety Office in Carruth-O'Leary Hall. But the room will find yet another purpose after the office moves to the vacated Printing Services building, 1501 Crestline Drive. BY JOSHUA BICKEL jbichel@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER Right now, the office occupies the north wing on the third floor of Carruth-O'Leary Hall, located southwest of Memorial Stadium It's unknown what will be done with the space in Carruth-O'Leary Hall once the KU Public Safety Office moves out. Steeples said. "We know they're making space for us," Maj. Chris Keary, assistant chief, said. "But we don't have a lot of other information other than that." Details still need to be finalized, and no specific date for a move-in has been set, but the office is expected to move into the building sometime either late this year or in the first three months of 2006, said Don Steeples, vice provost for scholarly support. The space is often cramped, and rooms have multiple purposes. "There's several groups under discussion," he added. "But we don't have a final decision about who's going to move into that space." The move might quicken officer response time to residence halls on Daisy Hill, said Liz Stuewe, Lawrence freshman. "But students won't stop illegal behavior because the police are closer," she said. Between now and then, design work, renovation and some construction on the building will take place, which should take about six months. Steeples said. "It's like moving into an apartment," Keary said. "You have to wait until the people before you get out." The office wasn't forced to move and was eager to acquire the open building space for themselves, Steeples said. "We offered them the option to move and they said they were interested," he said. "It really became a winwin situation for both of us." The office will also have new neighbors in the Printing Services building within a few hours of announcing the vacancy, Chief Ralph Oliver called and said he was interested in the building located on West Campus, Steeples said. — Edited by Laura Francoviglia ABU GHRAIB PRISON ABUSE Soldier pleads guilty to charges BY T.A. BADGER THE ASSOCIATED PRESS FORT HOOD, Texas — Pfc. Lyndie England, the young woman pictured grinning, giving a thumbs-up and holding a naked Iraqi by a leash in some of the most notorious photos to come out of the Abu Ghraib scandal, pleaded guilty yesterday to mistreating prisoners. Wearing her dress green Army uniform and speaking somberly in a soft voice, the 22-year-old Army reservist told the judge that she initially resisted taking part in the abuse at the Baghdad prison, but ultimately caved in to pressure from her comrades in to present She entering her pleas a day before the start of her trial as part of a plea bargain. The charges carry up to 11 years in prison, but prosecutors and the defense reached an agreement for a lesser sentence. A military jury will convene today to determine her punishment The plea bargain settles one of the most prominent cases to come out of the Abu Ghraib scandal. England became a central figure in the scandal after photos emerged last year showing her and others sexually humiliating Iraqi prisoners. 10754 One of the photos showed her holding a hooded, naked prisoner on a leash. Another showed her smiling and giving a thumbs-up next to a nude prisoners stacked in a pyramid. A third depicted England pointing at the prisoner's genitals as a cigarette dangled from her lips. England's lawyers have argued that she and others in her military police unit were acting on orders from military intelligence to "soften up" prisoners for interrogation. But Army investigators testified during hearings last summer that England said the reservists took the photos while "they were joking around, having some fun." Army Pfc. Lynndie R. England arrives flanked by her defense team for a hearing in her court martial at Fort Hood, Texas, yesterday. From right is Rick Hernandez, Lori Hernandez and Kristine Didonato, her defense lawyers, who are hoping a plea deal by England will be accepted by an Army judge. L. M. Otero/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS SCIENCE No need to defend evolution Supporters say it's inappropriate to debate supernatural viewpoints TUESD BY JOHN HANNA THE ASSOCIATED PRESS The attorney, Pedro Rigonegaray, also predicted that the board would face litigation if it revised the state's science testing standards to include elements of intelligent design, which he claimed some members of the board were trying to do. He is working with a coalition of science and education groups that have bowcotted the hearings. "We determined that it would be inappropriate to debate an issue such as evolution with individuals who are merely bringing to table a supernatural answer," Irigonegaray said during an interview. ( ) TOPEKA — Evolution supporters will present no witnesses and won't debate the theory's merits during hearings before a State Board of Education subcommittee, their attorney said yesterday. ♦ The Ce East Eat sponsor Lecture Poland Anna ment at Roc 884-42 ◆ The d will sr "Stru" "Span There Univ Room Muse for m ◆The D will s use i turing isticla NFL and s Altha Dole for m Calvert also said following intelligent design advocates' proposals was the only way to avoid a legal challenge. ♦ The Stu Pro fere Bra the a.m the Kar for But John Calvert, a retired Lake Quivira attorney organizing the case for intelligent design advocates and evolution critics, called Irigonegaray's tactics "silly" and "all bluff." tenge. "Pedro doesn't have a case. He knows he doesn't have a case, so he's not putting one on," said Calvert, who helped found the Intelligent Design Network. "His client is on trial and he's not going to have him testify because he can't afford to put his client in the dock." Intelligent design says some features of the natural world are best explained by an intelligent cause. Evolution says species change over time, and that's how different species can emerge from common ancestors, including man and apes. Though the state board has sought to avoid comparisons with the 1925 "Monkey Trial" of a Dayton, Tenn., where a teacher was convicted of illegally teaching evolution, the hearings will in some ways resemble a trial, with witnesses being questioned. A three-member board subcommittee will preside, and six days of hearings are set to begin Thursday in Topeka. Irigonegaray said he was defending a draft of science standards presented earlier this month to the board by a majority of a committee of educators reviewing them. The draft would continue the present policy of describing evolution as a key concept for students to learn before graduating high school. But the board also accepted a minority report with changes designed to expose students to more criticism of evolution. That proposal has the backing of intelligent design advocates.

ITALIA GTA reproaches Minutemen cepted a changes to more proposal it design LECTURE BY ESTUARDO GARCIA egarcia@hansan.com KANSAST WORK WRITER the stu- dure, 119 during the holidays. id through KS 66045 Ninety-nine percent of immigrants who come to the United States want to come here legally, said Chris White, graduate teaching assistant for the history department, during an afternoon lecture at the Multicultural Resource Center. The lecture was held two days after the Minuteman Project ended its month-long patrol of the Mexican border. The project was created by a group of Americans who didn't think the United States government was doing a sufficient job of patrolling the border between the U.S. and Mexico. "I figured that the entire campaign focused on getting media attention." White said. He said the group's goal was to gain the public's trust by deceiving them into thinking it was a non-violent organization. The Minuteman Project patrolled a 23-mile area of Naco, Arizona, with more than 800 volunteers. Project workers took credit for the apprehension of more than 330 Mexicans attempting to cross the border. While the project claims a 98 percent reduction in illegal immigration in Naco, White said that the number of immigrants who crossed the border in April was close to the number last year. He said people simply went around where they were stationed. issue than just the short news clips.

White said groups like these validated the use of force without looking at the root of the problem. He said the problems with immigration could start to be fixed if the U.S. became honest about political vs. economic reasons for immigration, and if the government made employers more accountable for hiring illegal immigrants, rather than blaming the immigrants. White grew up in California and knew many people who had fled their countries during many of the violent conflicts in Central America during the 80s. "I think it's important for people to look at it through the immigrants' perspective," she said. She said she didn't think the volunteers saw immigrants as humans. He was also a sergeant in the United States Marine Corps and has traveled around the world. He said one of the situations that made the immigration problem unique was that a first-world country like the U.S. was bordering with a country that was almost a third-world country. And the way to fix the problem-was not by having civilians patrol the borders, he said.

The justices will review in their next term beginning in October a ruling allowing law schools to restrict recruiters as a way of protesting the Pentagon's "don't ask, don't tell" policy excluding openly gay people from military service. "I The case sets up a free speech fight over schools' rights of association and the government's need to promote an effective military in time of war. It's a dispute that has resonated on college campuses since at least the 1950s during Sen. Joseph McCarthy's anti-communism crusade. At that time, left-learning professors were forced to sign loyalty oaths to the United States or be fired. If ... bigots have a First Amendment right to exclude gays, then certainly universities have a First Amendment right to exclude bigots." E. Joshua Rosenkranz Lawyer for 31 law schools During the Vietnam War, the presence of ROTC programs on some campuses prompted protests, with opponents seeing them as representatives of a wrongheaded foreign policy and the Pentagon as an institution incompatible with free thought and expression. Now the debate involves the Pentagon's desire to recruit military lawyers on campuses. "The military services depend significantly on campus access to recruit the lawyers they need to carry out their missions," Bush administration lawyer Paul Clement wrote in filings with the court. But E. Joshua Rosenkranz, a lawyer representing 31 law schools suing the Pentagon, contends the government may not force schools to accept its discriminatory policy by linking military recruitment to federal research money. "If, as the Supreme Court has held, bigots have a First Amendment right to exclude gays, then certainly universities have a First Amendment right to exclude bigots," he said. At issue is a 1994 federal law requiring universities that receive federal funds to give the military the same access as other recruiters. At some schools, the funding can be hundreds of millions of dollars.

PAGE 5A ▼ GUEST COMMENTARY 100% Hersey I What it really needs: A long and winding road Campbell The campus is kinked. BY MARK HERSEY AND ROBB CAMPBELI One century after our first campus plan, we really have no campus plan. And we need one For 138 years, the University has grown along a line meandering to the southwest, riding the growth waves of Lawrence. Starting in 1866 where GSP-Corbin Hall is, the University essentially progressed down Jayhawk Boulevard, reaching the Chi Omega fountain by about World War II. to foster community, attract researchers, retain students, impress visitors and help the environment. What we need, in our view, is one good road. But after the war a funny thing happened. The University kept expanding to the southwest, but lost the backbone of Jayhawk Boulevard. As a result some important parts of the University — the schools of Fine Arts, Engineering and Law, and even Allen Fieldhouse — lie in an odd little limbo-land of bad traffic where the street grid intertwines. Later, campus regained its spine and meandered on again, past the Burge Union and the residence hall and apartments on Irving Hill Road. After crossing Iowa Street it swung south of the Lied Center on Constant Avenue, past the Endowment Association and a host of research halls. It finally ends on a gravel road at the corner of Clinton Parkway, the University's apparent endpoint. We are blessed with the result. But it has drawbacks, starting with status. The University's heart is up on Jayhawk Boulevard, but that's a poor reason to treat the schools, gyms and residence halls down the hill as second-status stepchildren. In our heads we don't, but out in that landscape we certainly do. And then there's "West Campus" (or "Campus West," which sounds like a bad clothing line). It's not the Main Campus, it's not quite off campus, it's just the West Campus. and an old bridge. Here's the crux: Our campus landscape undercuts our community. Although the word gets mouthed to death these days, we are indeed a scholarly community, not some corporate entity selling "educational solutions." But our There are practical To Chancellor Robert Hemenway's two rules for campus development respect learning and preserve beauty we should add a third: Foster community. problems, too. Transit, by bus or car is not well served by this layout. Isn't it strange that driving from Jayhawk Boulevard to the "middle" campus essentially means leaving campus while rounding Lindley Hall? And we don't make the best impression on visitors. In many cases, 15th Street and Hoch Auditoria Drive leads first-time visitors to say, literally and figuratively. "This can't be it — this must be the wrong place." Unfortunately these false impressions are reinforced on subsequent visits, because the majority of people who visit our campus approach it on Iowa Street, where we offer them chain-link fences our physical arrangements invite status divisions into our community; they gum up our practical functioning as a community, and they don't do all they could to foster the sense of belonging and affection that bring people our physical together. To Chancellor Robert Hemenway's two rules for campus development — respect learning and preserve beauty — we should add a third: Foster community. So let's connect that line we grew on. (Our proposal is shown on the map below) The bridge over Iowa Street, a central hillcrest with a Visitor Center and lots of parking, would make an excellent "front door." Turn off to the bridge would create the city's best transit hub. Where Irving Hill Road shoots through the residence halls we should add a fifth traffic booth; this most beautiful view of our campus should be the entryway for all recruits. And Irving Hill Road, after rolling downhill, should angle north, pass over Naismith Drive, and follow Hoch Auditoria Drive to Jayhawk Boulevard. This overpass would let pedestrians out of their tunnels and traffic, and give the campus a single, simple "Blue Line" bus for people who are turned off by schedules, routes and tickets. Separating a central campus drive would provide both space for the University community and access from the perimeter. And not to step on toes, but we would suggest calling the whole thing Jayhawk Boulevard. This would take time and some shuffling of equipment, gates, parking, and so forth. But surprisingly little change is needed. The system works within the traffic booths now, and it would logically extend to the larger area as well. A greater Jayhawk Boulevard would improve transit, recruitment, public relations, crosscampus synergies, the residential experience, and even postgame traffic. It's a simple plan: One road through one campus, and one bus line up and down the road. And every 10-minute ride will be like cruising through a century and a half of the University's history. - Robb Campbell and Mark Horsey are Ph.D. candidates in history.

Oklahoma In a letter submitted to OU President David Boren, Cochell said he was honored to have been associated with the school, but felt it necessary to resign. Boren, who had met with Athletics Director Joe Castiglione and members of the university's black community on the matter, accepted the letter and said Castiglione had designated Sunny Golloway as interim head baseball coach. ESPN reported Friday that before a telecast of the Oklahoma-Wichita State game Tuesday, Cochell used racial epithets as he praised freshman outfielder Joe Dunigan, who is black. The interviews were not taped, and the play-by-play announcer and analyst who conducted them didn't know Cochell had used similar language in both instances until they spoke with each other days later, an ESPN spokesman said. The university, which didn't learn of the remarks until contacted Friday, issued a statement that it was reviewing the matter and that Galloway would assume Cochell's duties on an interim basis. Cochell wasn't in the dugout during Oklahoma's Big 12 Conference series with Nebraska Friday or Saturday. Weinstein The Associated Press CONTINUED FROM PAGE 12A Kansas coaches who have coached at least three years have left the program with winning records since 1910. People who know KU football contend that Jack Mitchell, who coached from 1958-1966, was the last coach to leave the University of Kansas with a winning record of 44-42-5. However, because of the use of an ineligible player in 1960, Kansas was forced to later forfeit games against Colorado and Missouri, leaving Mitchell's record at 42-44-5. Mitchell's tenure did include the first bowl victory in the Bluebonnet Bowl in 1961. The last coach to leave the University with an undisputed winning record was J.V. Silkes, who left Kansas following the 1953 season. His record was 35-25. In the last 52 years, no coach has had a winning record, period. Even Don Fambrough, who still spends time around the Kansas program and is regarded as one of the all-time great coaches in Kansas history lost. In two stints Fambrough finished with a 37-48 record. He led the Jayhawks to two bowl games. They lost both. I can only assume that the affection Fambrough receives from the fans and the current staff is because of the loyalty he's had for more than 50 years. Of the two most successful coaches Kansas has ever had, only one of them coached more than one year. Dr. A.R. "Bert" Kennedy led the Jayhaws from 1904-1910 accumulating a 53-9-4 record. In only seven years, in an era in which eight to 11 games were played per season. Kennedy is by far the winningest coach in Kansas history. Fielding H. Yost led Kansas to a 10-0 record in 1899 in his only year as a Jayhawk. He spurned Kansas for Stanford for a year before leading the Michigan Wolverines for the next 25 years, including a 165-29-10 record and three national championships. Pepper Rodgers and Glen Mason, two of the most successful coaches in modern Kansas history — mediocre by college football standards left Kansas to pursue "better" jobs. Rodgers left for UCLA and Mason went to the University of Minnesota. Mason is the only coach in football history to lead the Jayhawks to two bowl game victories. Kansas has seen its share of talented players. John Hadl, Gale Sayers and John Riggins have all worn the crimson and blue, but none were able to help sustain a consistent level of success for the Jayhawks. Kansas football coaches for the most part have never won and they probably never will. History has proven that a program with as little success as Kansas has had over the years won't get much better. Even if they do find a way to have some success with a few winning seasons or a bowl game appearance, the coach is swooped away to a more attractive job. Probably few teams in college football have completely rewritten their terrible history. Kansas is not one of them and don't count on them to do it any time soon. - Weinstein is an Overland Park senior in English. * When the game ended, Apartment M claimed its prize, an Intramural Champions T-shirt, then hustled to an adjacent field for the men's championship. Apartment M CONTINUED FROM PAGE 12A "I am dead," Jacobs said. "But I want to win." The men's final pitted Apartment M against the 12-Inch Ballers. In the first inning Apartment M put up three runs while holding the Ballers scoreless. "This game was, by far, our best defensive performance," Mike Miller, Humboldt junior, said. Apartment M began turning up the heat in the third inning. The entire lineup batted, including two plate appearances for leadoff hitter Jared Abel. On a trip by Miller, the Ballers defense committed two fielding errors. The inning ended with nine runs on seven hits, including two triples. "As long as you put the ball in play, you've always got a chance to get on base," Miller said. The Ballers followed with their best offensive performance of the game, but its five runs were not enough to keep the team in contention. After a scoreless fourth on both sides, Apartment M entered the fifth inning ahead by 10, which would mean a run-rule victory if they could hold the Ballers scoreless. During the top of the inning Apartment M added three insurance runs, batted in on a home run by Mike Miller. The It was floating up there like a beach ball, and my eyes just got real big.

"It was floating up there like a beach ball, and my eyes just got real big," Miller said. "As soon as I hit it, I knew it had a chance." The junior previously played baseball at Allen County Community College. The Ballers entered the bottom of the fifth inning needing After a flyout to center, the Ballers had a base runner when Locke Uppendahl, Cheney senior, walked. four runs to avoid falling victim to the run rule. He would remain on first base, however, as the next two batters were retired, giving Apartment M the victory. The team was finally able to relax. Some of the players put on their two championship shirts, both to celebrate and because the temperature had dropped considerably. They had survived 12 hours of softball.

No one wants to see his heroes on the bench, but getting them back on the court sometimes takes weeks of rehabilitation. That's where athletic trainers like Josh Adams, Fort Scott senior, come in. Adams is majoring in athletic training at the University of Kansas and was an integral part of helping to rehabilitate injured players on the basketball team this year. He is part of the support team for athletics that many people don't notice during competition, he said. But the support team still gives whatever it takes to help the program succeed, he said. More than 550 athletes represent the University. The athletic trainers take care of them and help them to recover from injury quickly so they can get back to competition. N Athletic training major gives students hands-on experience "It's kind of a pride thing to get someone back to play after you have been working with them daily and pushing them to get back to their level of play," Janele Huelat, Pittsburg senior in the training program, said. Taking care of injured athletes is a full-time job. Seven certified full-time athletic trainers and six certified part-time graduate student athletic trainers work for the Athletics Department. Department The certified trainers are outnumbered by athletes, so the students in the athletic training program are vital, said William Dent, director of sports medicine for KUAC. Dent said that the students who were prepared academically to assist in the athletic training clinic helped handle the masses of student athletes.

"They are an invaluable asset to athletic training here." The student athletic trainers are always under supervision, but they slowly become more and more independent in assisting the athletes as they prove their proficiency, Dent said. RUSS SPORTS Adams played a role in the rehabilitation of men's basketball junior forward Christian Moody's ankle this season. "We put in a lot of long days rehabbing and trying to return him to play as soon as physically possible," Adams said. "I don't think people realize how much of an integral part trainers play in athletics." The program offers direct contact with the athletes, which serves as a learning experience for the athletic training majors. Huelat said the student athletic trainers sometimes spent hours before and after team practices. Huelat said practice was a good learning environment. Janele Huelat, Pittsburg senior, cuts tape off a student athlete's ankle in Wagnon Student Athlete Center yesterday. As a student athletic trainer, Huelat has to complete 320 hours in clinical on-site training each semester, or 1,300 hours of training by the time her 2 1/2 year internship is up. She said she was first exposed to taping an ankle during the first semester of her training when she was only allowed to observe other trainers. "Taping that ankle used to be a scary thing," Huelat said. To wrap an ankle, Huelat said, a trainer needed to be aware of the contour or shape of the body he or she is wrapping. "I've been lucky to see an array of injuries on the teams I've been with and have been able to work directly with the athletes," Huelat said. "That is what is great about the athletic training program at KU." Once the student athletic trainers become juniors, they are assigned to an athletic team and rotate each semester. The students attend all of the practices and are supervised by the head athletic trainer for that team. Students get into athletic training for many reasons. Dent said some people, such as former high school athletes, joined the program because they loved sports and wanted to be involved. "I played sports in high school and still wanted to be part of athletics," Adams said. "I went through injuries in high school. It is kind of exciting to see the other side of it." Aric Warren, director of program coordination of health, sport and exercise science, said 31 students were in the athletic training program and another 18 would join next year. He said those students would be in an intense, demanding major that required both an academic and clinical commitment. Students enroll in a class called "Care and Prevention" in the spring semester of their sophomore years. They learn about the major, volunteer and observe what goes on in the athletic training room. At the end of their sophomore year, they apply to the school of education. Warren said getting into the athletic training major was competitive and selective. Once accepted, students are required to have 320 hours of clinic experience each semester for their junior and senior years. Many students exceed the requirement. "It's all about gaining your hands-on experience in school, rather than out," Huelat said. The 320 hours are a national requirement because graduating with an athletic training degree from the University also means becoming a nationally-certified athletic trainer. This is contingent upon passing a national exam at the end of the students' senior years. Adams still has a couple more weeks at the University to help injured athletes. He will graduate this month and will take the national exam in June. LAWRENCE AUTOMOTIVE DIAGNOSTICS INC.

SPORTS TUESDAY, MAY 3, 2005 PAGE 12A WWW.KANSAN.COM INTRAMURALS CHAMUTE Rachel Seymour/KANSAN Patrick Hoppa, Olathe graduate student and 12-Inch Ballers' first baseman, catches the ball as Brad Witherspoon, Humboldt freshman and Apartment M player, crosses first base and is called out during the men's intramural softball championship game Sunday night at Clinton Lake Sports Complex. Apartment M defeated the 12-inch Ballers 17-6. The team also took first in the CoRec intramural championship game previously that night. Apartment M reigns supreme BY MICHAEL PHILIPS mphillips@kansan.com KANSAN SWITTERWRI It was a display of dominance that would have brought a smile to New York Yankees owner George Steinbrenner's face. Apartment M won eight games in a 12-hour stretch Sunday to win both the men's and CoRec intramural softball championships. The CoRec squad struck first, with an 18-6 championship victory against the C&C Softball Factory. The men's group followed with a 19-6 run-rule victory against the 12-Inch Ballers. The run rule, also known as the mercy rule, stops a game if one team is ahead by 10 or more runs. How did Apartment M, named after the address of several team members, celebrate the victories? SOFTBALL BOX SCORI "Food," said Justin Jacobs, Olathe senior. "I've only had time to eat one meal all day." CoRec championship rosters + Apartment M Name David Baxter Jesse Paden Justin Jacobs Klarry Katt Justin Sloop Jennie Brevitz Jarris Krapcha Ela Zahn Jarad Abmack Kellie Hammack Justin Sloop, Valley Falls seniort, pitched all eight games, four in each division of play. + C&C Softball Factory Name Stephen Vinson Kate Hosack Andy Schutter Tina Borchers Chris Jones Emily Duckworth Ryan Pratt Jen Cox Eric Schlickman Liz Kelsey The fans came prepared, even bringing a boom box to play music introducing the batters. The crowd stayed animated throughout. For the CoRec team, the day started at 1:30 p.m. By the time the championship game rolled around at 9:30, the group had already developed a reputation as the team that was run-ruling everybody. Despite the cold weather, a bleacher full of fans still showed up to cheer Apartment M's opponent, the C&C Softball Factory. Referring to his team's lack of a cheering section, Apartment M's Jared Abel said to the C&C Hometown/class ABI H R R Sloux City, Iowa, senior 5 4 3 Wathena senior 4 3 3 Olathe senior 5 5 4 Waterloo, Iowa, junior 4 1 2 Valley Falls senior 5 5 3 Valley Falls senior 5 2 0 Albuquerque, N.M., senior 5 1 0 Littleton, Colo., senior 4 0 0 Winchester senior 4 3 2 Leavenworth, senior 1 0 0 Hometown/clas AB H R Lawrence junior 4 1 Harlan, Iowa, senior 4 1 Lenaea senior 4 1 Wichita sophomore 3 4 Carrollton, Texas, junior 3 3 Webster Groves, Mo., sophomore 3 1 Webster Groves, Mo., sophomore 3 1 Kansas City, Kan., sophomore 3 1 Wheaton, III, junior 3 2 Springfield, Mo., junior 2 1 supporters, "We don't need support." The Winchester senior was thoroughly heckled during each future plate appearance. C&C held its only lead of the game in the second, when it retired three straight batters. In the fourth, however, the entire lineup batted for Apartment M. The six-run inning was highlighted by Justin Jacobs' home run to right-center field. C&C scored in five of the seven innings but could not produce enough offense to keep up with Apartment M. "We hit and fielded well and made plays when we had the chance," Sloop said. Strong defense by Apartment M kept runs off the board. The team turned a double play twice in the game, including one in the fifth inning with two runners on base. Apartment M did not lack offense either. The team had three doubles, a triple and four home runs. Three of those homers came from the bat of lacobs. "Its just standing back and being relaxed," Jacobs said. "That's what hitters do." Because it was the championship, the game was allowed to go the full seven innings instead of ending at the 50-minute mark. The teams took advantage of the extra time,compiling 40 hits and six home runs. Pitching was solid on both sides. Tina Borcher, Wichita sophomore, walked only four hitters. Apartment M's Sloop did not walk any. It was C&C's second championship game loss in three years.

With the exception of the golden years from 1890-1910 — the first 20 years of the program's existence — Kansas has well, stunk. Junior outfielder A.J. Van Slyke takes a swing during the game against Kansas State Sunday. Van Slyke hit his team-leading 11th home run during the game.

Since then, the Jayhawks have a less impressive 142 record, a .453 winning percentage. Coach Mark Mangino shouldn't feel bad for going 12-24 in his first three seasons at the helm.

SEE WEINSTEIN ON PAGE 6A Kansas to face St. Mary's tonight BASEBALL Rachel Seymour/KANSAN BY ALISSA BAUER abauer@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER After the final game at Texas Tech was canceled, Kansas was left with one more game it could pick up, and it will do so this evening. Kansas (29-21, 6-11 Big 12) will face the St. Mary's Spires (23-24, 12-10 Kansas Collegiate Athletics Conference) in a game that coach Ritch Price is calling a teammate game. "I've got some guys on my club that haven't played very much that are great teammates," Price said. "I'm calling it a teammate game. It's rewarding those guys that come to practice every day and don't get the opportunity to play on the weekends." St. Mary's comes off a doubleheader sweep against Sterling College (3-1, 1-0), while Kansas picked up its first Big 12 Conference series victory against Kansas State last weekend. The victories moved the Jayhawks out of last place in the Big 12 and bumped them ahead of the Wildcats. At the plate, Kansas is led by junior outfielder A.J. Van Slyke. Appearing to find his groove at the plate, Van Slyke homered twice against the Wiltcats this weekend and drove in six runs. Van Slyke leads the team with 11 home runs and 52 RBI. "I've only had about one hit every day for about a week, but I have been hitting the ball real well," Van Slyke said. "I feel really comfortable at the plate right now." Junior first baseman Jared Schweitzer enters tonight's game on an 18-game hit streak. He blasted his third home run in game two of the weekend series, going 2-5 with two RBI against the Wildcats. "I have no idea about St. Mary's," Schweitzer said. "But we'll come out and put a good effort in, hopefully. Maybe get the guys that don't play very often some playing time." St. Mary's seemed to be an unknown to much of the team, but the Jayhawks also acknowledged the ] VOI A importance of a victory and the opportunity to play some bench players. "I don't even know what it is or where it is," Van Slyke said. "We're just trying to get as many wins as possible." Senior right-hander Clint Schambach (2-3, 5.40 ERA) is penciled in to start on the hill for the lawhaws. St. Mary's, which competes at the NAIA level, is a university located in Leavenworth with an enrollment of less than 900 students. When it comes to baseball, however, a game is a game. "If you get a game rained out, you've got to get somebody," Van Slyke said. "I guess that's who we got." The game will start at 7 tonight at Hoglund Ballpark. - Edited by John Scheirman 1. 1 THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN both chita four Sloop hits years. 6A WWW.KANSAN.COM r/KANSAN am-lead- ocated in the settlement of When it a game lined out, body," Van so we got." tonight at WEDNESDAY, MAY 4, 2005 an VOL. 115 ISSUE 146 Athletes use to self improve Panel discusses steroid problems BY JASON SHAAD jshaad@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER A panel of two sportswriters and a former professional football player expressed concern about youth's use of steroids during a discussion last night. It was part of a discussion called "Doping and Professional Sports" at the Robert J. Dole Institute of Politics. John Hadl, Bill James and Bill Althaus spoke to nearly 50 people about their concerns with steroid use in professional sports, but none of them had any effective ways to keep athletes from using them. While steroid use is illegal unless prescribed by a doctor, the way athletes use the drug differs from the way society uses other drugs, said James, a writer on baseball history and statistics. $ ^{48} $In baseball the drug problem is the opposite of the drug problem in the rest of society, which is about pleasure-seeking and an instant payoff and instant See page 1B for more on the steroid panel re w ard," James said. "In baseball the drug is about motivation and an effort to make yourself better." All three panelists said that steroid use on the professional level encouraged steroid use in youth sports. "What is so bad about steroid use with young people is that they think it is a quick fix," said Althaus, a sportswriter and columnist for The Examiner in Independence, Mo. "But if you can't hit a fast ball or if you can't hit a curve ball, then steroids aren't going to help you succeed." James said the problem with professional athletes using steroids was that it was wrong to set an example to do something that was dangerous. that was dangerous. Hadi, former NFL and KU All-American football player, attested to this danger. While he played in the NFL during the 1960s and 1970s, Hadl said he saw several players use steroids.

Pay now OR PAY LATER The fine print of health care coverage By Ty Beaver tbeaver@kansan.com Kansan staff writer Illustration by Austin Gilmore A winter vacation to Vail, Colo., for snowboarding and relaxation ended in disaster for 2004 graduate Mvrinda Warner. An accident on the slopes left Warner with a broken arm. As a dependent on her parents' health insurance policy, Students are often uneducated about health insurance. They don't know what their policies cover, or they don't realize that coverage through a parent's or guardian's policy will eventually expire. Warner assumed the policy would cover the costs. She was wrong. The accident left her with a $2,800 hospital bill. Students are often uneducated about health insurance. They don't know what their policies cover, or they don't realize that coverage through a parent's or guardian's policy will eventually expire. It's not that students aren't worried about health insurance, they simply cannot afford it. "It made me cry," she said. Like Warner, students don't discover the information until it's too late. A 2003 Sigma Research study found that more than half of 425 college siz The risk of financial loss should motivate people to be insured, said Mary Beth Fruton, Blue Cross Blue Shield public relations specialist in Topeka. Despite the risk, she said the trend was that young people were not buying health insurance. dents surveyed were covered through a parent's or guardian's policy. About 20 percent had a health plan through a university or employer. Six out of 10 said that having a health insurance plan was extremely important in post-college employment. Weighing the Costs The price of not having health insurance is evident to Sarah Stacy, Germantown, Md., senior and member of The University Daily Kansan editorial board. Her aunt avoided going to the doctor despite recurring health problems Today, her aunt is $40,000 in debt from medical bills and still has serious health problems. Stacy's parents also never had health insurance. For six to eight months during her senior year of high school, Stacy was eligible for coverage through Medicaid. A car accident put Stacy in the hospital for several days. Medicaid paid her bill. Checklist for insurance coverage The cost of health insurance depends on how much coverage you want. Age, health and whether a person smokes can also affect how much coverage with cost. What are the premiums? Know what services your policy will pay for, and what services it will not. Some insurance plans have a list of medical providers they will cover. What are the benefits and exclusions? SEE PAY ON PAGE 4A Along with premiums, insurance companies often require a co-payment or deductible. What additional payments are required?

Five chapters won the award this weekend at the Interfraternity Council and Panhellenic Association awards ceremony, but it should have been more, said Laura Bauer, program director for fraternity and sorority life. "There are just a lot of chapters out there doing good things, but because they don't fill out an application, they don't get recognized for it," Bauer said. In order to get recognized at the awards ceremony this past Sunday at the Lied Center, chapters had to fill out an application. Many chapters did not fill one out because of its length, so the IFC and PHA made it shorter this year. Bauer said. That still did not attract as many chapters as Bauer hoped. Graves said that some chapters might have been discouraged and did not apply for an award because they knew they weren't as qualified as others. Other chapters did not apply because of when the ceremony was held. Before this year, the ceremony was held at the end of February, but it was moved to this Sunday to emphasize chapter accomplishments at the end of the school year. "I looked through the application and it was like 40 pages," Tom Graves, Phi Kappa Tau member and Overland Park sophomore, said. "In spending two to three hours filling out the application, we could have been doing other things more valuable to the chapter." Having the ceremony in May made spring officers confused in the application process, Shelley Hellman, Sigma Kappa president and Denver junior, said. Chapters elect officers in the fall, but they do not take office until January. When it was in December, officers who established themselves at their positions were able to fill out applications. Sigma Kappa did not fill out applications this year, but had in the past, Hellman said.

Her 11-year-old cousin had died after being hit by a truck. Barker immediately left town to go back to her hometown, Minneapolis. Kan. She missed all five finals. Losing a family member is never easy, and having it happen during finals week does not make the situation easier. University officials want to assist the student in this time of need, but communication between the student and the faculty is important, said Ann Eversole, associate dean of students. University policy does not excuse any absences for any reason. If the situation occurs during the final weeks of the semester, faculty members will make the final decision about grades on a case-by-case situation, Eversole said. Barker contacted the administration and her professors because she didn't know how the system worked. "We try to put a human face on the University, but at the end of the day, it is really about the relationship between the student and the professor." "If something happened today, it might be nearly impossible to complete the semester," she said.

The University administration will inform the student's professors of the situation, Tuttle said. The student should also contact his or her professors, she said. sors, she said. For example, a professor might tell a "C" or "D" student who has missed several classes to withdraw without consequences. Likewise, the professor might excuse an "A" or "B" student from the final exam and give him that grade. "Being humane and keeping academic integrity are really important," Tuttle said. Barker's Western Civilization teaching assistant gave her the "A" that she had before finals and allowed her to forgo the test. her to forge the test. Medical emergencies, such as major injuries or a death in a family, are common at the University of Kansas, Eversole said. "We try to put a human face on the University, but at the end of the day, it is really about the relationship between the student and the professor." Eversole said. But situations involving the death of a grandparent are different. Tuttle tells those students to bring in proof of the death, such as a funeral program, she said. gram, she said. Too often, the student is lying if he has to miss one day for a grandparent's funeral, Tuttle said. "You wouldn't believe just how many grandparents die," she said. Barker said the University and her professors were helpful in her situation. "The University made it very easy because I didn't have time to deal with it." she said.

"I look forward to a trial of this case because it is important after 30 years for people to know and for people to understand and appreciate, not only the work of law enforcement, but to be able to say, 'It's over, it's over.'" District Attorney Nola Foulston said after the arraignment of suspect Dennis Rader. Demis Rader. Rader, 60, stood mute during the brief hearing, leaving it to District Court Judge Gregory Waller to enter a not guilty plea for him. Waller set trial for June 27 — a date likely to be postponed. packages to media and police. and police Authorities have declined to say what led them to Rader. Rader, a former city compliance officer from suburban Park City, was arrested Feb. 25 and charged in 10 deaths linked to the serial killer known as BTK, which stands for Bind, Torture, Kill." The killings began in the 1970s and made headlines again last year when the killer started sending cryptic messages and N. A. SHEVENY Prosecutors cannot seek the death penalty because all the crimes were committed before 1994, when Kansas passed its capital punishment law. Rader But in a dramatic moment at the arraignment, Foulston stood across the table from Rader and looked him in the eye as she handed him a court document seeking a harsher sentence for the most recent of the 10 killings. killing. Foulson told Rader she would seek a so-called hard-40 sentence for the death of Dolores Davis, 62, who was abducted from her Park City home Jan.19,1991,and found strangled two weeks later. The sentence means Rader, if convicted, would have to serve at least 40 years without a chance of parole. years worse. As Rader was being taken out of the courtroom, one of victims' family members yelled out to him: "Don't worry, you won't last that long." In the other nine killings, Rader would have a chance of parole after 15 years even if sentenced to life in prison under law on the books at the time of those crimes. Foulson told reporters she wanted the case to go to a jury trial to determine Rader's guilt or innocence. "Without that we still will wonder and live with the question for the rest of our lives in this community — and there isn't a book, there isn't anything that can make sense of this case — without a jury making a determination." she said. Rader's defense team is considering seeking a change of venue but had not made a final decision, Osburn said, adding attorneys do not anticipate making Rader's competency a part of the defense. Defense attorney Steve Osburn said Rader, despite his lack of cooperation in the courtroom. "cooperates with us. We are able to work with him and he is able to help with his defense." Prosecutors have listed 247 potential witnesses, and the public defender's office has said a trial is likely more than a year away. Rader last month waived his right to a preliminary hearing, meaning prosecutors will not have to reveal details of their case until trial.

Evolution hearings begin tomorrow BY JOHN HANNA THE ASSOCIATED PRESS ZG TOPEKA — In a building where visitors once could view a natural history display, three State Board of Education members plan to hash over what critics say about a long-dead British scientist and his theory of evolution. Four days of hearings, set to begin tomorrow, are a precursor to a review in June of proposed changes in the state's science-testing standards. Facing a receptive conservative board majority, advocates of intelligent design hope it will revise the standards to expose students to more criticism of evolution. Intelligent design advocates also hope their critique of evolution will receive widespread news coverage and bring what they view as a robust scientific debate to the general public's attention. "I expect that our side is going to focus on the science pretty rigorously," said John West, senior fellow at the Seattle-based Discovery Institute, which supports intelligent design research. "I hope the media doesn't just cover the antics but what's actually said." But many scientists and some science groups are hoping people don't consider the hearings a debate over science. Critics of intelligent design view it as creationism and argue the hearings are rigged against evolution. A coalition of science and education groups plans to set up a booth inside the building but aren't planning on calling any witnesses — or debating the science supporting evolution. "By the end of Thursday, the media will be totally bored with hearing the ID people get up and spout their drivel all day," said Harry McDonald, president of Kansas Citizens for Science. "The whole purpose of these hearings was to create the facade that science debates ID, and we're not going to debate it." Evolution, attributed to Charles Darwin because of his 1859 book, "On the Origin of Species," says environmental conditions cause species to change over time. It says such change can lead to new species and that different species, such as man and apes, can have common ancestors. Intelligent design says that some features of the natural world, because of their wellordered complexities, are best explained by an intelligent cause. West said there will be no discussion during the hearings about intelligent design, only evolution. But McDonald said: "It's going to be clear that they have political and religious agendas." ponticlear and Board Chairman Steve Abrams has said the hearings will inform board members, himself included, about science. To critics, the hearings mirror the famed Scopes Monkey Trial of 1925, when a Dayton, Tenn., teacher was convicted of violating a state against teaching evolution. And the hearings — set for tomorrow, Friday, Saturday and May 12 — will resemble a trial. Evolution critics plan to call 24 witnesses, who will make Power Point presentations and face both cross-examination and questions from the three presiding board members. Department of Education staffers were working yesterday on arrangements for the hearings inside a 180-seat, second-floor auditorium in Memorial Hall. The building, near the Statehouse, houses state offices but once was home to the Kansas State Historical Society. Until the 1970s, it also was home to a natural history display about birds on its top floor. Studying birds provided crucial evidence for Darwin as he developed his theory. The doors to the auditorium sit between two bronze plaques containing excerpts from President Abraham Lincoln's writings, including from his Second Inaugural Address in 1865, contemplating the Civil War between North and South. The plaque reads in part: "Both read the same Bible, and pray to the same God; and each invokes His aid against the other." MILITARY Legislation gives military billions BY Liz Sidoti THE ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON — House and Senate negotiators agreed yesterday on a measure that would provide $82 billion for Iraq and Afghanistan and a nearly tenfold increase in the death benefit for survivors of troops killed in combat zones. Overall, the legislation gives President Bush most of what he asked for and pushes the costs of two conflicts and other efforts to fight terrorism worldwide beyond $300 billion since the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks. Congress had promised to pay only for urgent items in the spending package, but the final legislation ended up with the same overall price tag as the president's proposal. president — most of the money — $75.9 billion — is slated for military operations, nearly $1 billion more than what the president wanted. About $4.2 billion will be spent on foreign aid and other international relations programs in Iraq, Afghanistan and elsewhere, roughly $1.5 billion below Bush's proposal. The legislation reflects a desire by Congress to give the Pentagon what it needs while holding the line on State Department spending. The House is to vote on the measure tomorrow. The Senate is expected to take it up next week when it returns from a week-long recess. recess. The legislation also includes immigration revision provisions, including one that will make states verify that driver's license applicants are U.S. citizens or legal immigrants. legal immigration Since the president asked for the money for Afghanistan and Iraq in February, the House and Senate had differed slightly over what portion of the spending package should go to military operations and how much should go to foreign aid. devices used by insurgent Congress also included the death-benefits provisions but limited the one-time payment to survivors of those who died in combat zones. Some lawmakers had wanted families of all troops who are killed — no matter where they died — to be eligible. The increase would apply retroactively to families of troops killed in combat zones, as defined by the U.S. statute and including in Iraq and Afghanistan, beginning on Oct. 7, 2001, when U.S. military operations began in Afghanistan. should go to foreign ducks. In the end, lawmakers added more money to protect troops at war, including funding to arm vehicles used in combat zones and counter makeshift explosive devices used by insurgents. Agromathos The one-time benefit increases to $100,000 from the current $12,000 payment. The measure also increases life insurance benefits for all troops to $400,000 from $250,000 and creates a new insurance benefit of up to $100,000 for those who have suffered traumatic injuries such as losing a limb or eyesight. The bill also includes a provision meant to protect the C130J cargo plane from being scaled back by the Pentagon and language that would prohibit the Pentagon from reducing its fleet of 12 aircraft carriers.

James said steroid use could be dealt with on four levels: Individual, team, baseball government or federal government.

States fail to control obesity problem BY ALEX DOMINGUEZ THE ASSOCIATED PRESS BALTIMORE — None of the 50 states received on "A" on a report card grading legislative efforts to control obesity. Boiton said at the conclusion of the reunion his cousin ended up naked in a kiddie pool singing Toby Keith and cursing at a curious toddler. Courtesy California, which enacted a childhood obesity prevention act in 2003, was the only state to receive an "A" grade for efforts to control childhood obesity. The report card is one of a number of efforts by the University of Baltimore on the issue. Known primarily as a law and business school, the university is studying the issue as a public health problem similar to smoking and AIDS, drawing from fields such as economics and law. law. About two-thirds of American adults are overweight or obese. That compares with one-third to a half in European countries, and the problem is worsening, contributing to higher health care spending. According to a study released in March in the New England Journal of Medicine, obesity is even threatening to lower life expectancy in the United States. United States were graded on if they proposed or enacted legislation to address obesity overall and childhood obesity. Five states received a failing grade for not taking any action to fight obesity, 11 received a "D," 23, including Kansas and Missouri, received a "C," and 11 earned a "B." Fifteen states, including Kansas, earned a "B" for their efforts to fight childhood obesity, 21, including Missouri, were given a "C," seven received a "D" and six failed. While some business groups fight efforts to limit the sale of sugar-laden soda and snacks in schools, for example, obesity raises the cost of health care for everyone, said Kenneth R.

Public-private partnerships involving a wide variety of fields outside the med- McCann said. "If we are going to solve this problem, it seems to me we need the same kind of answer," McCann said. In addition to the report card, the university conducts surveys and other obesity-related research, not only in terms of health care costs, but also obesity's impact on industry and the work force. work force. General Motors, for example, spends $1,525 per vehicle on health care costs and "it's being escalated by obesity." Stanton said.

WORLD iraq swears in its new government BAGHDAD, Iraq — The first democratically elected government in the history of Iraq was sworn in yesterday against a backdrop of violence, and the new Shite prime minister pledged before a half-empty parliament that he would unite the country's rival ethnic factions and fight terrorism. Despite months of tortuous negotiations, there was no final decision on seven positions in the 37-member Cabinet, including the key oil and defense ministries. More critical still, the partial Cabinet fails to give the country's disaffected Sunni Arab minority a meaningful governing stake. governing the Cabinet that took office yesterday includes 16 Shiite Arabs, nine Kurds, four Sunnis and one Christian. Two deputy prime minister's slots, including one Prime Minister Ibrahim al-Jaafari hopes to offer to a woman, were left vacant and five ministerial portfolios were in temporary hands. Al-Jaafari played down the disputes still roiling his government more than three months after millions of Iraqis risked their lives to vote in landmark parliamentary elections on Jan. 30. He blamed the delay in filling the Cabinet on Sunni infighting and said the matter would be resolved in two to three days. three days. "But we are not in a hurry," he told reporters after yesterday's ceremony. "We want the choice to be accepted by all the Iraqi people." Finger found in custard FAST FOOD INDUSTRY The Associated Press BY VALERIE BAUMAN THE ASSOCIATED PRESS RALEIGH, N.C. — This time, no one is doubting the claims: A customer really did find part of a worker's finger in a pint of frozen chocolate custard purchased at a shop in North Carolina. North Carolina. Despite the horrifying find — and widespread media coverage of an infamous finger incident at a Wendy's restaurant in California in March — workplace statistics show that the chance of a body part winding up in food is extremely small. upin to the floor. The piece of index finger, which an employee had severed at the first knuckle, was found Sunday by Clarence Stowers in a pint of dessert he purchased from Kohl's Frozen Custard in the coastal town of Wilmington. the coastal town of Kohl's owner Craig Thomas said 23-year-old employee Brandon Fizer tried to catch a bucket of custard he had dropped and accidentally put his finger into a machine that beats the custard mix. As shop workers tried to help Fizer, a drive-thru window attendant unknowingly scooped frozen custard from the bucket containing the finger and served it to Stowers. The state Department of Labor is investigating to determine whether Kohl's was in compliance with state workplace safety rules — a probe that likely will take about two weeks. weeks. Stowers did not return repeated calls for comment yesterday. He has reportedly hired a lawyer and is holding on to the severed finger as evidence in a possible lawsuit. "I thought it was candy because they put candy in your ice cream or whatever to make it a treat," he told a Wilmington television station on Sunday. "So I proceeded to put the object in my mouth, got all the ice cream off of it and spit it in my hand." After rinsing it off with water, Stowers said he realized what it was and "just started screaming." was and just is. While national statistics show that people do lose fingertips on the job, they rarely do so in situations where they can get into food. into food. Mark Zak, an economist with the U.S. Labor Department's Bureau of Labor Statistics, said that in 2003 the agency recorded 5,620 nonfatal fingertip amputations in private workplaces that resulted in the loss of at least one day of work. He said only 300 of those occurred at leisure and hospitality workplaces — a category that includes restaurants and ice cream parlors. No specific statistics are available on how often amputated digits actually end up in the food supply, said Fred Blosser, a spokesman for the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health. and Health Robert Baldwin, president of Indianapolis-based workplace safety consultants Safety Resources, said yesterday he has never heard of major problems caused by body parts getting into food, but his major concern would be disease. would be deceitful. "That is the issue to me more than anything," he said. "Hepatitis B is always the concern in the food industry; that's why you see all those workers wearing gloves."

The North Carolina discovery came not long after a Las Investigators have called Anna Ayala's claim a hoax and charged her last month with attempted grand theft related to millions in dollars of financial losses Wendy's has suffered in northern California since news of her claim broke.

June 2004. For Kohl's, Sunday's fingertip amputation was the second time in less than a year that a worker lost a finger on the same frozen custard machine. The worker, William Franklin, was found by investigators to have been negligent in the July 2004 incident, and the state Labor Department cleared the company of wrongdoing. Franklin, however, contends he was only in his third day on the job and had been given no safety training when he was left alone to work on the machine. He is suing Kohl's, which he said fired him a short time after the incident, and has made several complaints to the Labor Department about his injury. "I am outraged now," Franklin said. "I told them there was going to be another one, but I couldn't believe it. I had hoped that they would somehow try and prevent that." Franklin said his severed finger didn't end up in any food. He recovered it, but doctors were not able to reattach it.

It's to the point where an "average" student has nearly an "above-average" GPA — nearly a "B." In the article, Neil Mulka wrote that Lawrence is becoming like the fictional Lake Wobegone, Minn., where all the students are above average. Mimh., where all the students are there. There are many possible factors for this grade inflation. Society expects more from students today. College admissions and scholarships are GPA-heavy. The rising costs of tuition are leading to rising expectations of students' grades. Our society is partly to blame. The path to attending college begins with getting good grades. Colleges need an objective way to look at students. Grades are simple and easily ranked, which lets colleges quickly evaluate potential students. Parents, teachers and counselors Why? Because students at this University, and most other universities, are But focusing on the issue of rising GPAs ignores a bigger problem. Students measure their success in school with letters and numbers instead of what they learn. at they tell you. Do you deserve an "A" if you get an 89.4 percent on a test? No, you don't. But this slight distinction of percentage points infuriates some students here at the University. encourage students to get good grades to get into college. This leads to grade inflation in high school, which leaves high school students with false expectations about grading in college. Hence, college grades can go up, like they are here. More importantly, it diminishes the value of a hard-earned "A." obsessed with grades. They talk about turning "Cs" to "Bs," but they don't worry about what's important. They believe getting good grades is doing well in school. Do you deserve an "A" if you get an 89.4 percent on a test? No,you don't But this slight distinction of percentage points infuriates some students here at the University. But they're wrong. The point of going to class is not to get good grades. It's not the letters and numbers, it's meeting people, seeing new things and learning that really matter. Grades are only an objective way to measure success. Nonetheless, students can't seem to follow this concept. To combat grade inflation, Princeton University voted last year to reduce the number of "As" given by 25 percent. Don't get me wrong, grades are necessary for student evaluation. Without them, it would be impossible to compare students. pare students. But that does not mean that students need to place all their focus on grades. The last thing a teacher wants to hear at this time of the year is, "Is this going to be on the test?" Students concentrate on grades so much that they forget that grades are only part of what education is. Remember that college is not about how good your grades were. No one ever says, "Gee, I wish I could have raised that 'B' plus to an 'A' minus in psychology." So keep in mind that grades are just grades the next time you get an 89 percent on a test. - Jordan is a Salina junior in journalism. LETTER TO THE EDITOR Columnist doesn't look at all facts conservatives good for economy When I first read the inflammatory opinion column by Stephen Shupe in Thursday's University Daily Kansan, I knew I had to respond, but there were so many problems with it that I didn't know where to begin. A start would be to point out that it is unwise for people as unphotogenic as Mr. Shupe to begin an article with an ad hominem attack concerning someone's appearance. (I guess the Kansan's policy against attacking people on its editorial page doesn't apply to the likes of Mr. Shupe.) I thought I would start by pointing out that while Mr. Shupe's attempt at satire attempts to expose why conservatives are the worst thing for the economy since Jimmy Carter, in actuality, the facts clearly show that the same things that Mr. Shupie ridicules, such as free markets, deregulation and lower taxes, are the very things that have been proven time and time again to produce the greatest economic benefits. If you don't believe me, just look at the difference between East and West Germany. If capitalism and free markets are so bad, then why, over a decade after re-unification, is the eastern half of Germany still trying to catch up economically, socially and in terms of infrastructure? Even today, after Germany has taken the advice that Mr. Shupe advocates and has "socialized" its economy, unemployment in Germany last month reached a postwar record of 12 percent. On top of that, the massive entitlement programs that Mr. Shupe seems to advocate have bankrupted the German economy. And if you don't believe that means that Germany is having economic problems right now, just envision the United States in 20 years when our entitlement programs begin to go bankrupt and imagine what types of economic woes that will cause. Another example of a divided country is Korea. After the initial partitioning of the country and after the end of the Korean War, it looked as if the North, which had the majority of the power-producing and heavy industrial facilities, would forever be economically stronger than the agrarian South. However, by the 1970s, South Korea's economy out stripped the North's and today, South Korea has one of the highest living standards in the world, while North Korea has one of the lowest. This isn't the result of luck, or good fortune, but, instead this has occurred because of the radically different economic approaches the two countries took. approaches the two countries. Another problem with Mr. Shupe's column is that he doesn't seem to understand basic economics. This sounds like a mean thing to say, but if you don't understand that raising the minimum wage will increase unemployment because businesses won't have the money to hire more people, then you probably also don't know that the people most impacted by this type of phenomenon in Lawrence would be college students who would find it tougher to find entry-level jobs that they need to help pay for their education and living expenses. If Mr. Shupe doesn't understand how this works or that most college students need even low-paying jobs to make the rent, then he probably shouldn't be bashing others because of their economic policies. because of their economic position. In the end, Mr. Shupe's column is nothing more than the same old angry diatribe about conservatives not caring about anything except money. I realize that the point which his column tries to make is that conservative policies ignore social justice and benefit few, but what everyone needs to realize is that conservative economic policies are proven to grow the economy as a whole, and in the words of someone who was pro-tax cuts, pro-business, and progrowth, John F.

The U.S. Constitution's amendments promise citizens a few vital rights. "Congress shall make no law," our forefathers wrote, "abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press." Assuming "congress" implies government on all levels, the police department just breached a Constitutional right. Alexander Meiklejohn, a First Amendment theorist, believed all political or public speech is protected under the amendment. Meiklejohn said speech concerning public welfare could not under any circumstances be abridged. under any circumstances be abrogated. After a great deal of media attention, the police department reinstated Housh on Sunday. But free speech enthusiasts should hold their applause. As a condition of his reinstatement, Housh must not only drop the lawsuit he filed against Warren, but also serve a 20-day no-pay suspension, and he has been removed from the Omaha SWAT team. The negotiation also called for a public apology, and not by the police department. Housh issued a letter saying, "I do not believe the words 'criminal' or 'liar' accurately describe the mayor or the chief. ... I apologize that my message was not clear." Housh's problem is by no means isolated. Even beyond the Midwest, government condemns those brave enough to raise a hand, or pen, against "The Man."

Almost 40 years ago, a landmark case, Pickering v. Board of Education, ruled in favor of free speech for public employees.

The Supreme Court will hear the case in fall. While U.S. Supreme Court rulings uphold the legitimacy of the First Amendment, they don't always sway in the direction of free speech. In 1983, the court failed to protect a district attorney who distributed a critical questionnaire to her colleagues. She lost her job. issues. She lost her job. The possible repercussions of speaking out are alarming. When government entities fire employees for exposing the truth, future whistle-blowers hesitate to speak out on other public atrocities. Far more frightening is the suppression of the general public's awareness. Housh did not criticize the police chief's personal life, nor did it impede the function of the police department. The issue at stake is public safety and departmental dishonesty. If a KU Public Safety officer expressed his disapproval of the service's regulations in a letter to The University Daily Kansan, could he be canned? In the name of free speech, no — in the spirit of government oppression, absolutely. absolutely. The essence of the First Amendment is that speech is an inalienable right. Speech and expression are part of mankind's ongoing search for truth, and it cannot be taken away by government. Exposing wrongdoers is a right of the public and its duty.

A 1997 trip to Moscow allegedly was financed by Russian lobbyists and funneled through a mysterious company in the Bahamas, Chelsea Commercial Enterprises Ltd. Yesterday, the president of Chelsea, Chelsea Rosenblatt, came forward to admit the truth. The now 18-year-old heiress to the Rosenblatt tennis ball fortune admitted that she helped disguise the sponsor of DeLay's Russian trip in exchange for some personal favors. secretly and asked if I could give it to him." favors. "I'm really sorry that I lied," Rosenblatt said. "I was only 10 in 1997. I didn't know what I was doing was wrong. My parents set up Chelsea Commercial Enterprises Ltd. as a trust fund/kid's first corporation for me. I had a pen pal in Russia whose dad worked at Naftasib, a Russian oil and gas company. He wanted to get money to Mr. DeLay Rosenblatt then contacted DeLay with the news but told him in order to get the money he would have to DONALD J. CARTER DeLay sweeten the deal with some favors. The precocious 10-year-old offered DeLay a list of demands. "It was humiliating," DeLay said. "I had to spend four weekends with Chelsea. During these weekends, I had to let her braid I will be very happy to help you. Little girl my hair, I took her to see Titanic three times. I had to play Spice Girls with her and her friends. Do you know how hard it is to dance in a miniskirt? I'm "He was an awful Posh Spice," Rosenblatt said. "He kept forgetting our routine and complained that his heels hurt his feet." a very powerful man!" The last duty DeLay performed entailed sending some Washington lobbyist friends to lobby Brad Dunklemyer into "going with" Rosenblatt. Dunklemyer agreed to the relationship but broke up with her one week later, after Sara Stevens offered to go to second base with him. After admitting his connection to Rosenblatt, DeLay quickly reestablished his stance that all allegations of money laundering and illegal campaign contributions against him were a conspiracy by the Democrats. "This is a huge, nationwide, concerted effort to destroy everything the conservatives believe in," DeLay said. ENTERTAINMENT Black Eyed Peas kick it really old school The hip-hop foursome, Black Eyed Peas, will soon become a five-piece with the addition of newest member, 73-year-old Harold Perkins. The Peas, who started as a diverse threesome — a black guy, a Mexican guy and a Filipino guy — added white, female singer Fergie for its 2003 release, "Elephunk." Fergie, Stacy Ferguson, expanded the Peas' main-stream appeal to whiter audiences with her rough street-wise look, which she originally crafted as a child on the Disney Channel's "Kid'S Incorporated." CAMPUS With the addition of spoken word artist Perkins to the line-up, the Peas plan to reach two more demographics with one man. Not only will Perkins' wrinkly smiles melt the hearts of the soon-to-explode senior citizen market: This old fart loves NASCAR. That's right, Perkins will also appeal to the newly labeled "NASCAR Dads." The additions of Fergie and Perkins weren't the only times the Peas reached out to underdeveloped markets. The group celebrated the mentally disabled with its song, "Let's Get Retarded." It then switched up the lyrics and title to "Let's Get It Started" and sold the song to the National Basketball Association to use during the 2004 playoffs. The Peas newest album, "Monkey Business," drops June 7. The first single will showcase Perkins and is titled, "These pills is getting me stiff fo' NASCAR." Droppin' Science: Research hurts KU - Chris Crawford Danny Flores, Tulsa junior, is a budding research scientist, and his friends are sick of it. "Ever since he declared a psychology major, he's always pulling some shit on everyone and calling it an 'experiment,' said Jennifer Ramley, Flores' longtime friend. Once, Flores monitored reactions to "obstruction stimuli" by tripping people on campus all day. Many bruised shins resulted, but the young "Maslow" maintained his academic distance, murmuring, "Interesting..." while furrowing his brow and dodging thrown objects. "It may take years for people to realize it, but they're contributing to my future greatness by being my subjects today," Flores said. "Until then, I have to stay focused. Right now I'm preparing a groundbreaking investigation into the way the average post-adolescent male responds to having his pants pulled down on Wescoe Beach."

This is our last issue for Spring 2005, but we had a blast reestablishing satire in The University Daily Kansan. Tongue In Beak actually started in 2001 but had petered out a couple times since. I think it is necessary that we never let that happen again. To the stuffy professors and overly sensitive types out there who aren't fans of Tongue In Beak, remember that you don't have to read this page. There are plenty of better things to complain about: gas prices, potholes, the war, health care, religion, etc. That's actually the purpose of what we do here; satire is just complaining in a humorous way. We hope to see you again in the fall. Every major college newspaper should feature a regular satire page, and the Kansan is no exception. This is a newspaper targeted to 18- to 22-year-olds. And I know that sometimes between classes, you might rather read jokes than read about scientific grants. At least that's how I felt. That's the purpose of Tongue In Beak, a little release from a stressful day.

Price was 1-for-4 with one RBI during the Jayhawks' 8-3 victory last night at Hoglund Ballpark.

Senior left fielder Marc Walton hit a two-run home run over the wall in straightaway center field to give St. Mary's an early advantage. The Jayhawks bounced right back to take control of the game in the bottom of the inning. Junior left fielder A.J. Van Slyke doubled home two runners to tie the game, and junior designated hitter Jared Schweitzer homered to left field two batters later, which extended his hitting streak to a Big 12 Conference-best 19 games and gave Kansas a 4-2 lead. The Jayhawks added another run in the frame and never looked back. Senior first baseman Mike Dudley also homered for the fourth time this season. Senior right-hander Clint Schambach picked up the victory to improve his record to 3-3 on the year.

RAINS' RAMPAGE NCAA steroid testing needs closer look During the last few months, one word has become associated with Major League Baseball. The word isn't hit, home run, strikeout or bunt. It actually has nothing to do with the game itself. That word? Steroids. Baseball has gone under the microscope lately, as allegations of steroid use have surfaced. Retired big-name players such as Ken Caminiti and Jose Conseco have admitted to using steroids to get bigger and stronger. Both players won MVP awards, and both admitted to taking steroids during their MVP seasons. Congress decided recently to hold hearings to discuss the use of steroids in baseball. Several current and former players testified. Until two seasons ago, Major League Baseball did not even test for steroids. steroids. Why is everyone making a big deal about the use of steroids in baseball? Because ALEXANDER MAYGIN BJ RAINS brains@kansan.com tered. "I'm still paying for it," Caminiti said to Sports Illustrated. "My tendons and ligaments got all torn up. My muscles got too strong for my tendons and ligaments. And now my body's not producing testosterone. You know what that's like? You get lethargic. using steroids is dangerous. Though steroids may help players bulk up, players are often in terrible health when they retire. Caminiti died last year at 41. An autopsy report found steroids to be a contributing factor. In an interview with Sports Illustrated, Caminiti admitted to using steroids and blamed them for the series of injuries he suffered. You get depressed. It's terrible." After talking with a member of the KU baseball team who asked to remain anonymous, I found out that steroid use was becoming more and more prominent at the collegiate level. It also seems that steroids are present at the college level as well. "I have played with and against players who have taken steroids," the player said. "I have not witnessed anyone take steroids, but guys have told me that they are doing it. I can notice a physical difference. They are bigger and stronger. It's an obvious difference." The player said that athletes used steroids when they were stuck at a plateau and couldn't move up. For example, if a player is stuck in the minor leagues and SEE RAINS ON PAGE 4B SPEAKERS Panelists agree: steroids hurt image BY KELLIE ROIBETT krobinett@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWRIVER Whether the use of steroids should tarnish an athlete's legacy is a topic frequent discussed on sports talk radio. But last night, a panel of experts discussed the ever-present issue at the Robert J. Dole Institute of Politics. Former Kansas and San Diego Charger quarterback John Hadl, baseball writer Bill James and sports columnist Bill Althus of The Examiner, in Independence, Mo., each agreed that steroids would forever taint the image — and the records — of any player caught using them. using them. "The records will be tainted." Althaus said. "You aren't going to see asterisks next to the home run records of Mark McGwire and Barry Bonds, but in the fan's minds, one will always be there." He sketched that, McGwire. He added that McGwire "I think it's best to fess up," he said. "Pete Rose may well be in the Hall of Fame if he had shown any remorse for his gambling. would probably not be allowed into the Hall of Fame because of his recent testimony at a congressional hearing, where he refused to answer questions concerning steroids. Althaus continued to say that players such as the New York Yankees' slugger Jason Giahbi, who confessed to his steroid usage, would receive more sympathy from fans than those who didn't. James said Major League Baseball was the slowest major sports group to address the steroid problem. He thought MLB Commissioner Bud Selig was only now creating a stricter "I know Jason Giambi will receive much more sympathy for admitting his steroid use than those who hide behind the Fifth Amendment," Althaus said. "Every sport has it's own government," james said. "The NFL moved before baseball because it had the problem first." punishment for steroid users because of increased scrutiny from fans, players and politicians. it had the problem he He added that NFL Commissioner Paul Tagliabue was a much better leader than the MLB's Selig. Hadl, who said he's seen the problems of steroid use since the 1960s, thought the reason major sports were slower to enforce steroid punishment than less-publicized sports was because of the almighty dollar. Some owners don't want their players to get caught, he said. "There's money to be made, and owners don't like seeing their quarterbacks suspended the day before a big game," he said. "More athletes are caught in track and field, because there aren't big dollars to be made."

LOUIS — Last year, the St. Louis Cardinals became the sixth team in six often tumultuous seasons for Julian Tavarez. And finally, the pitcher most likely to get the bulk of the save opportunities while Jason Isringhausen is on the disabled list appears to have found a home. Tavarez arrived in St. Louis with baggage that likely kept him on the move. He's been suspended at least five times and his left hand still feels the effects of his attack of a dugout phone in the playoffs against Houston, when he broke his left finger and fifth metacarpal. The pinky is unnaturally bent. The pinky is unhappy. "It's still messed up and when the weather is cold, it hurts," Tavarez said. "I don't mind. I will live." live Tavarez, who will turn 32 later this month, has been effective starting and relieving in his career. He led the NL with 89 appearances with the Giants in 1997 and made 55 starts in 2001 and 2002 for the Cubs and Marlins. Last year, he had a career-best 2.38 ERA and appeared in 77 games with St. Louis. "I would want to stay here for the rest of my career," Tavarez said. "But I won't be surprised when it's time to leave. That's the way it goes."

Kansas coach Ritch Price said it was important for his team to focus on this game and not look ahead to this weekend's game against Texas. "It's going to be a difficult game for us," Price said. "We have to make sure our entire pitching staff and bullpen are ready for the weekend, so we need to have a solid game against Wichita State." But Price is not worried about his players.

"I think it's the hair that does it." Schweitzer said of his Samson-like locks. "I'm not going to cut it until the streak ends." Speaking of streaks, Wichita State's Derek Schermhorn had an impressive streak of his own earlier this year. The Shockers' leading hitter had a 34-game hitting streak snapped in game two of a double-header with Northern Iowa on April 17. It was the second-longest hitting streak in Wichita State history. Wichita State holds a 39-19 advantage against Kansas in the alltime series between the two teams. This is the first time since 1992 that the Jayhawks and Shockers have met four times in a season. WSU won all four match-ups that year. — Edited by Kim Sweet Rubenstein BASEBALL HOGHIND BALLPARK BALL STRIKE OUT 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 RUNS HITS 2 0 2 5 5 KANSAS BASEBALL Kansas' greatness newly visible BY ALISSA BAUER @hanssan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER The scenery is changing at Hoglund Ballpark this spring. Hoguido Sapporo No, not because of the ESPN equipment trucks that will surround the area as Kansas prepares to face No. 1 Texas on national television this weekend. The new scoreboard at Hoglund Ballpark was in operation last night for the Jayhawks' game against the St. Mary's Spires. A new feature of the scoreboard shows the recorded speed of each pitch. The Jayhawks beat the Spires 8-3. Look to right field and see a change that represents something much bigger, something that gives tangible proof that Kansas baseball is traveling down a road much improved, said Jim Marchiony, associate athletics director of external affairs. By adding the 35-by-60-foot scoreboard in place of an older, much smaller model along with an indoor hitting facility, Kansas is making a statement. making a strides. "I think that both the hitting facility and the new scoreboard are long overdue," Marchiony said. "I think it's two steps closer now to where we want to be, as far as having a good facility that will help us recruit players. The kind of players coach Ritch [Price] needs to make strides in the Big 12." Not that the new equipment will make the Jayhawks College World Series champions overnight, but the new scoreboard brings an appeal that has been missing in recruiting visits. High school and junior college recruits who would otherwise choose to play Kansas baseball are sometimes wooed by other Big 12 Conference schools, or in-state rivals such as Wichita State, with better equipment and facilities. "It's all about recruiting," coach Ritch Price said. "As our program improves, and if we are going to get better players and better pitching, we have to continue to improve our facility because they are so great in our conference." The portion of the scoreboard that is up and running includes an electric inning-by-inning scoreboard, a graphics board and full-color ads along the sides. Even with these additions, the structure looks incomplete. Beneath the Hoglund Ballpark lettering and above the electronic scoreboard and graphics board is a gaping hole, filled only with the steel bar frame. The opening is to allow space for a video board in the future. Funding will not allow for that addition to be made now.

The total cost of the scoreboard is about $125,000 with an approximate $25,000 more for installation. After funding such a project, it may be a while before the video board is added. board is audited. "The scoreboard is like $125,000 and the hitting facility is $700,000," Price said. "Lew Perkins picked up the tab for the scoreboard. Some of our boosters and alumni donated to pay for the hitting facility. Right now I think it is a gorgeous ballpark." is a gorgeous building. Although the indoor hitting facility and scoreboard are being constructed at the same time, the two are completely unrelated projects, Marchiony said. Scoreboard construction began in January after an unopposed decision that it was sorely needed at Hoglund Ballpark. The plans were set so the project to be completed in time for the Texas series this weekend, a series that will be televised on ESPN and ESPNU. "It wasn't really a difficult decision to know that it needed to be upgraded," Marchiony said. "All we needed to do was look at the scoreboard itself. Its shortcomings were painfully obvious." were pannantly Making good time, the scoreboard was up and running last weekend and made its debut as the Jayhawks defeated the Kansas State Wildcats. Making vast improvements to the scoreboard after only a year and a half with the previous one shows how committed Kansas is to making its baseball program one to be reckoned with, Marchiony said. "It speaks to our commitment and desire for all sports here to be competitive, in the Big 12 and nationally," he said. "We're very pleased with the progress that Ritch is making. We are going to attempt to do anything we can do to help him improve the program even more." — Edited by Jesse Truesdate Baby Jay's Feast: •2 Medium pizzas any way you want it •10 breadsticks •2-liter of pop Only $19.99 Pizza Hut WingStreet 843-3000 843-2211 843-7044 23rd & Louisiana • 6th & Wakarusa • 9th & Mass Baby Jay's Feast: •2 Medium pizzas any way you want it •10 breadsticks •2-liter of pop Only $19.99 Pizza Hut WingStreet 843-3000 843-2211 843-7044 23rd & Louisiana • 6th & Wakarusa • 9th & Mass CINCO DE MAYO PARTY $1 TEQUILA SHOTS THURSDAY, MAY 5TH DJ SCOTTIE MAC LADIES FREE BEFORE 11PM 729 NEW HAMPSHIRE STUDENTTRAVEL Discover Europe!

The Jayhawks were down 1-0 early in the game until freshman defender Afton Sauer used a header to put the ball in the goal off of a cross pass from sophomore midfielder Nicole Cauzillo. The Blue-Valley All-Stars got one past Jayhawk defenders and into the goal, winning the game in the second half. Coach Mark Francis said the performance in the last game was the best he had seen this spring and that he was happy with how his team played. "I thought that we played well," he said. "They were fast and controlled the ball well and that is one of the reasons that you play boys' teams, to get used to playing the game at that speed." speed. Cauzillo agreed that last Thursday's game helped the team play at a higher speed. teach play a lot. "Playing boys, our speed of play had to be much faster, and I think last game's performance really showed improvements in that area," Cauzillo said. that area. This spring exhibition season for the Jayhawks has been about learning about themselves. The squad needs to learn how to continue its winning ways after an 18-5-0 season last year. "If we keep doing what we did last season we will do great, but we are going to have to learn and play with the new freshmen coming in," Sauer said. With many seniors graduating after last season, the team has had to learn how to play a new style of play and a new formation. Cauzillo said that the team was learning the new formation well. "I think last game we finally put all the pieces together," she said. "We are getting comfortable with our new formation, which is important because we will probably play this formation in the fall." Cauzillo also said she was starting to feel comfortable with her new role on the team as well. well. "This spring, I'm getting used to being the only attacking midfielder. Last fall, we played with two attacking midfielders so it's definitely a change," she said. 2005 EXHIBITION SEASON The Kansas soccer team has played four of its five exhibi- tion matches this spring.

She said the team had been trying to improve on scoring opportunities and team defense. The Jayhawks have only one more game to learn more about themselves and work on areas where they need to improve.

The women will wrap up their spring exhibition season against the KCFC U-15 club at 6 p.m. tomorrow at the Jayhawk Soccer Complex.

The hats are just part of the Afleet Alex merchandise also being sold to raise money for Alex's Lemonade Stand for Pediatric Cancer Research. Each hat has a small lemon image on the side, and Afleet Alex's saddle-cloth also will have a lemon image. Alexandra Scott, the daughter of Jay and Liz Scott of Wynnewood, Pa., was diagnosed with cancer two days before her first birthday, in 1997. She opened the lemonade stand when she was 4, hoping to raise $1 million for her hospital. The touching story quickly gained national interest, and donations started pouring in. Alexandra was 8 when she died Aug. 1. Chuck Zacney, managing partner of Cash Is King Stable, owners of Afeet Alex, was so moved by the story that he pledged $30,000 to the charity. Then he e-mailed the Scotts, asking if they'd like to be part of the team, with a portion of Afeet Alex's earnings going to the cancer charity. cer Charly.

Duncan's re-emergence as the force he's expected to be is particularly troubling for Denver, which hasn't been able to handle his supporting cast, most notably the freewheeling Ginobili. Ginobili averaged 16 points during the season but has slashed his way through and around the Nuggets to score 24 points a game in the playoffs.

"I have not needed to take steroids, because I have had success at this level," the player said. "If I got to a point, where I was stuck at a certain level, and couldn't get any better, I would definitely consider taking them because they could help me get to the next level." Steroid use is so prominent in college athletics that this player said he could obtain steroids with ease if he wanted to do so. do so. "If I wanted to take steroids, I know who I could call to get them," he said. men, he said. The NCAA currently tests players for steroids, but it is obviously not enough. The player said he was a member of a random NCAA steroids test, as well as a University-wide test. No Kansas players take steroids, he said. They are not tested in the offseason, however, which is when most of the players use steroids because they are able to get away with it. they are able to get away Players take steroids to get bigger and stronger so they can make the Major Leagues. They want to make millions of dollars, and they weigh the risk of serious injury as less important that the risk of injury. Steroid use has become more frequent among American youth as well. Players use steroids at younger ages as they A study done by the National Youth Sports Research and Development Center in the fall of 2002 examined the use of steroids among American youth. Of the 1,553 youth athletes surveyed, approximately 1 percent of 10- to 14-year-old participants were using or had used anabolic steroids. used anaerobic steroids testing. We need stricter steroids testing. The testing needs to be done in the offseason. Also, more tests need to be done throughout the year. The NCAA needs to scare these players from trying to sneak around the law and use these steroids. If we can eliminate steroid use in college, we can begin to eliminate steroid use in the professional ranks. Also, we need to inform our athletes about the dangers of steroids. look for that extra edge. The study done by the National Youth Sports Research and Development Center showed that young athletes were not properly educated on the dangers of steroids. More than a quarter of youth sports participants have received their knowledge of anabolic steroids from magazines or books, the study said. If we plan on decreasing steroid use in the professionals, it starts with American youth. Tighten the testing and educate the young people on the dangers on steroids. Not only will it repair the integrity of Americas sports, it will help decrease injuries and save peoples lives. It's a win-win situation. Rains is a St. Louis freshman in pre-journalism. Baseball CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B in a game where seven different Jayhawk pitchers saw action, including freshman left-hander Logan Murphy, who hadn't pitched in more than a month. B Dudley, who is sporting a mustache along with a few other Jayhawks these days, said playing a lesser opponent like St. Mary's would not affect the team in its upcoming match-up against Wichita State. Having three straight seasons with 30 wins or more is something that had never been accomplished before the Ritch Price era at Kansas. Price was quick to credit everyone involved in the success. "I think the progress we've made in the program is due to the commitment our school has made to baseball." Price said. "With our donors and our boosters, they're helping us improve our facilities, which helps with recruiting and helps you grow the program." Twenty Kansas players saw the field last night. Many of them don't see much game action but put in hard work every day at practice. practice. "You could tell that I wanted to play as many freshmen as I could play." Price said. "It was a teammate game, kind of a developmental game for our freshmen." "I think if we're not ready to play Wichita State tomorrow, then there's something wrong with all of us." Dudley said. "We should be ready to go." KJ Junior designated hitter Jared Schweitzer swings at a pitch during last night's game against St. Mary's. Schweitzer extended his career-long hitting streak to 19 games with a two-run homer in the first inning, helping the Jayhawks to an 8-3 victory at Hoglund Ballpark. Price agreed. "You saw a lot of guys didn't even play tonight," Price said. "I tried to purposely give those guys a night off. They'll be ready to go tomorrow. Every time we go to Wichita, it's an outstanding ball game." After tonight's game at Wichita State, Kansas will have tomorrow off before starting a three-game home series with Texas Friday night.

The Jayhawks will take an eight-game winning streak into today's home finale. The first 300 fans will receive a free Jayhawk Rally Waver. "We're hoping for a great crowd," coach Tracy Bunge said. The softball team is on a hot winning streak, defeating nationally ranked Oklahoma, Arkansas, North Dakota State and Texas Tech. Bunge said the Jayhawks would need to approach the Tigers with the same game plan that they used the past eight games. "We need to have great pitching, good defense and timely hitting," she said. Kansas defeated Mizzou earlier this season in Columbia, Mo., 5-3. Bunge said scoring four runs early made Missouri press, which helped Kansas to victory. "My aggressive, I mean smart aggressive," she said. Bunge said the Jayhawks would need to avoid mistakes to keep their momentum going and continue their recent dominance. before the game.

"She has improved dramatically over the two years and has been a quiet leader for our team. She loves life, and there just aren't enough good adjectives to describe Kathy McVey as a person." "Kathy has been a real pleasure. She is an atypical player in that she helps out with batting McVey regularly volunteers her time to serve the community. She organized a community service event for the entire team earlier this season. Before the team headed down to Stillwater, Okla., for a weekend series against the Cowgirls, the team served breakfast to the needy at the Jubilee Café, located in the First United Methodist Church, 946 Vermont St. McVey said she continued to serve food to the needy this season. "Every Tuesday and Friday, I go cook food," she said. She said she had made some great friends through the experience, and some of the homeless people she cooked for would be at the game today. — Edited by John Scheirman Baylor holds down No.1 spot, Kansas moves to No.9 BY MATT WILSON AND ALISE BAUER sports@kansan.com SPORTS/WINTERSPORTS Editor's note: The University Daily Kansan sportswriters Matt Wilson and Alissa Bauer will provide updates on the Big 12 Conference baseball season every Wednesday throughout the semester.

Connor checked off a box when he renewed his Nebraska driver's license when he was 18 years old, saying he wanted to be an organ donor. Then, in December, a year and a half later, he died in a car accident. And on Christmas Day, four recipients received the gift of life from a KU student they would never meet. Connor's twin brother. "I think it's a gift to mankind. He's given a part of himself so more people can live more enriched lives, and they, in turn, can help other people." "He gave probably the greatest Christmas present he could have," said Doug Meigs, Connor was one of more than 620,000 registered donors in Kansas and Nebraska. In Kansas, residents have three ways to sign up with the donor registry, said Laura Schons, hospital and family services coordinator for the Midwest Transplant Network. People can become a donor by checking off that option when they receive or renew their driver's licenses; they can state their intentions in a living will; or they can sign up directly with the Midwest Transplant Network. In Nebraska, sign-up is just as easy. The demand for organs is high and the supply is never enough, health officials say. In addition, the recipient must have a perfect match with the organ so the wait is usually long. It's especially important for young people to think about organ donations, Schons said. They have healthier hearts and lungs, which are the most difficult organs to transplant, she said. SEE LIFE ON PAGE 6A Families say goodbye, save lives For Connor Meigs' family, being part of the organ donation process was difficult, but gratifying. But Linda Meigs knows the decision her son made to donate his organs was Myths may discourage donations BY NATE KARLIN nkarlin@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER The organ transplant waiting list continues to grow rapidly, but myths about donating stop people from registering with the donor registry, said Laura Schons, hospital and family services coordinator for the Midwest Transplant Network. The most common myths include stories that emergency medical technicians won't save people's lives so there are more organs for transplants. Or that donors can't have an open-casket funeral or families are charged for the donations. All are not true, Schons said. Suzanne Muldrew, Overland Park freshman, didn't register as a donor when she got her license. She said she would only want family members to receive her organs. She didn't want them going to recipients who needed a new organ because they purposely damaged their old one, such as her liver going to an alcoholic. People are placed on the waiting list for a variety of reasons, Schons said. Family members have priority to the organs providing they match perfectly. But possible donors shouldn't assume their organs would automatically be given to a specific type of person. People cannot be placed on the waiting list if their organs have been damaged because of drugs or alcohol. If somehow they get on a list, they will be denied a transplant if the abuse is discovered, Schons said. Schons simply urges everyone to seek the truth about donating before possibly denying someone a life-saving match. "My concern is why people say 'no.'" Schons said. "If they're saying 'no' for reasons that aren't true or if they're saying 'no' because of disrespect to their loved one – I don't want them saying 'no'" - Edited by Austin Caster MULTICULTURALISM Students hail Mexican gala BY ESTUARDO GARCIA egaricia@kansan.com KANSAAN STAFF WRITER Carrie Warner was almost fired for being unavailable to work on Cinco de Mayo last year. The St. Louis junior said Cinco de Mayo was the busiest day of the year at Chevy's restaurant where she worked. It's a good time for people to get drunk, Warner said.

Building unique homes BY ADAM LAND aland@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER Former churches and even retail malls in Lawrence are quickly becoming apartments and townhomes, all in an effort by landlords to use unique structures to draw students and other new clients to their properties. All 14 units are circular in shape, both inside and out. This unique style was not initially attractive to Key, but she grew to like it. Interesting buildings can bring in a variety of people, including students, Samantha Key, Sabeth junior, said. Key lives in the Four Wheel Drive Townhouses, located at 2859 Four Wheel Drive Road. "When I first saw them, I though they were weird," Key said, after having been a tenant for almost a year. "But they are so beautiful and different." they are so beautiful. The apartment setup also provides her amenities that would be hard to find elsewhere. "I have a gazebo in my apartment," she said. The townhomes, located in southern Lawrence, were built as a retail shopping mall in the early 1990's, said Kathryn Franklin, office manager for the townhomes. But after the River Front Mall was built, the property owners decided to transform the mall into rentals. to transform the mall. A church, which was built in the late 1800s and is now located at 1001 Kentucky St., also has been transformed. It is now a home for students and even a small business, Little Springs Design, said Aspen Junge, network operations professional for the company. "I remember when we looked at it, thinking how cool it was." Junge said. thinking how cool it was, Junge said. The small business operates out of the location because of its close proximity to downtown, Junge said. The cost for their apartment, which Junge said was more than $600 per month, is cheaper than if the business were on Massachusetts Street. "It's cool, but you pay for the 'cool factor,' Junge said. Each property has its own quirks, though. Tenants living at 1001 Kentucky St. battle for parking spaces as much as those in the residence halls. The lot was not designed to have a big parking lot, Junge said. - Edited by Ross Fitch NATION Nichols writes about accusations BY RICHARD GREEN THE ASSOCIATED PRESS OKLAHOMA CITY — Terry Nichols has written a letter to a woman who lost two grandchildren in the Oklahoma City bombing and accused a man never charged in the attack of providing some of the explosives used to bring down the building a decade ago. Nichols, serving a life sentence for his role in the blast, said in the four-page handwritten letter that he "felt the record should be set straight." He claims Arkansas gun collector Roger Moore gave the explosives to Timothy McVeigh and also provided additional bomb components recently found in Nichols' former Kansas home. He sent the letter to Kathy Sanders, who has written a book about her own investigation of the bombing and corresponds with Nichols. A copy of the letter, first disclosed by the Los Angeles Times, was obtained Wednesday by The Associated Press from Sanders' literary agent, Jim Baird. An FBI spokesman in Kansas City said the letter will not lead to a new investigation and that there is no indication Moore provided explosives to Nichols and McVeigh. Prosecutors say Nichols stole an estimated $63,000 in weapons and other items from Moore's home that were then sold to help finance the terror plot. "We believe the information that came out of the original investigation and we stand by the results of that investigation," FBI spokesman Jeff Lanza said. In the early stages of the bombing investigation, the FBI took a hard look at Moore because of his anti-government views and close relationship with McVeigh. Nichols said in the letter that FBI tests, including fingerprinting, on a "case of little tubes of nitromethane" found about a month ago at his former home in Herington, Kan., would support his claim that they came from Moore and Moore's girlfriend. with Meveigh. Moore was never charged and has denied any involvement in the bombing and he testified against Nichols about the robbery. He could not be immediately reached for comment; he has an unpublished phone number. TH W CONTINU cian ever "The Fed Gov't knows of Roger Moore's corrupt activities and they are protecting him and covering up his involvement with McVeigh at the OKC bombing!" Nichols wrote. The FBI searched the home after getting a tip from an inmate who said he learned of the explosives cache from Nichols in the maximum-security federal prison in Colorado. Oklahoma County District Attorney Wes Lane, whose office prosecuted Nichols in state court last year, said that in attempts to solve the case through plea negotiations before trial, Nichols was asked to discuss the involvement of others in the bombing. He had no relevant information, and never mentioned Moore, Lane said. never mentioned it. "It disgusts me that Terry Nichols would further victimize the innocent by his prison cell ramblings." Lane said. his prisoner Nichols, 50, has been convicted twice — in federal court and in an Oklahoma court — and is imprisoned for life without parole. McVeigh was executed in 2001. The letter was dated April 18, the day before the 10-year anniversary of the federal building bombing that killed 168 people.

After the presidential vote recount in Florida in 2000, Attie said he was unemployed and called Warner Brothers to ask about screenwriting for "The West Wing," which was entering its third season.

Attie said Attie learned much of his knowledge for the show while working as an assistant and speechwriter for former Vice President Al Gore and former House Democratic Leader Dick Gephardt.

Chris White, graduate teaching assistant who teaches a course on the history of Mexico, said Cinco de Mayo is in commemoration of a battle Mexican soldiers fought against the French.

"It's something meaningful, but it's not something I think much about." Salazar said about Cinco de Mayo. She said on the country's actual independence day, people get out and celebrate with friends and family all dressed in traditional clothing.

BICYCLE --- 4A THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN NEWS THURSDAY, MAY 5, 2005 High-dollar DENIM Price tags don't deter fashionistas from wearing brand names By Kim Wallace $ \diamond $ correspondent@kansan.com $ \diamond $ Kansan correspondent Photos by Kelly Hutsell M Regardless of the extraordinary price tags, chic denim is flying out the doors of department stores and high-end boutiques. The hunger for high fashion is bringing in an endless stream of savage customers who can't seem to pay too much for designer jeans. "We constantly have sizes and styles on back order," said Akta Desai, St. Louis senior and sales associate at Britches Clothing Co., 843 Massachusetts St. "We can't keep them in the store." A pair of low-rise, faded Seven for All Mankind jeans top out at $285 for elaborate stitching and the addition of Swarovski crystals on the pockets or studs around the waist. Sevens are a popular brand on college campuses and are noted by the signature hand-knit swirl on the back pocket. Abercrombie & Fitch has taken note of the soar in denim sales and acted on it by launching the new Ezra Fitch line of jeans at about $250 a pop. Companies are quick to defend these prices, noting the higher-quality denim used costs up to three times more to produce. The intricate handiwork that goes into the stitching the designs on the pockets also ups the price. ups the price. Each pair of Sevens comes with an authenticity label and instructions regarding the care of the jeans.

The jeans are easy to find at places such as Kohl's or Wal-Mart. But jeans, once the staple of poor boys and steel workers, have become the look of celebrities and suburbia, with prices to match.

"If stars can wear it, we can wear it." Desai said. It's not just the rich paying these prices. prices. Although most buyers are in their 20s or 30s, girls as young as middle school and women in their 50s are feeding into the craze. "Our shoppers are mainly college girls and their moms looking for good denim," said Katie Zeller, Overland Park freshman and sales associate at Ginger and Maryanne, 914 Massachusetts St. The boutique specializes in designer duds and carries seven different lines of denim, all ranging from $120 to $200 a pair. Just recently the store has stocked a pair of "Sweetheart" style jeans by Chip & Pepper that cost about $250. The extra-long low-rises feature hand-stitched heart designs on the pockets. The exclusive market for jeans hasn't just been around for the past few years. In 1980, Calvin Klein introduced his designer jeans on the back side of Brooke Shields along with the controversial slogan "Nothing comes between me and my Calvins." Other designers like Ralph Lauren and Marciano began to explore the blue jean and turned it into a wardrobe necessity. The demand for jeans is helping dress-down fashion overall. "They are great because you can dress them up by pairing them with heels or down by wearing them with your everyday clothing," Desal said. "As long as you're comfortable, then you just feel better about yourself." Though many say the only reason shoppers buy into the fad of overpriced jeans is for the sake of labels, many contest that the fit truly defines quality denim from average denim — even if it comes at $200 a pair. pair.

The district has recommended those teachers be fired and has demoted the school's principal. Chris Tritico, an attorney for one of the principals and two of the teachers fighting to retain their jobs, claimed investigators picked a target "and then molded their facts around that target." Yesterday, Saavedra said the investigation was over and confirmed cheating occurred at another three elementary schools. At one school, investigators found that four eighth-graders were taken from their regular classrooms to another room where a math teacher helped them answer questions. The four answered all of the test questions the same way, and they incorrectly answered the same two questions. Other schools around the nation have faced similar incidents. All fired up for Aristide LAFEMANTE LAPENI 1937 Former leaders aim to shape up youth NATION NEW YORK — Former President Clinton and Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee — two politicians whose love of junk food landed them in the hospital — are trying to help the next generation shape up. The two announced a campaign Tuesday to stem the tide of obesity by encouraging children to create lifelong healthy habits that emphasize better nutrition and increased activity. "The truth is that children born today could become part of the first generation in American history to live shorter lives than their parents because so many are eating too much of the wrong things and not exercising enough," Clinton said.

At least seven cars were destroyed by the blast in Irbil, a Kurdish city 220 miles north of Baghdad. Several nearby buildings were damaged. The attack came as many civilians were applying for Iraqi police jobs at the recruitment center, said Capt. Mark Walter, the spokesman who provided the U.S. military death toll.

WORLD Israel halts plans to hand over towns JERUSALEM — Israel froze the planned handover of West Bank towns to the Palestinians yesterday, accusing Palestinian security forces of failing to honor commitments to disarm militants in areas already under their control. In the West Bank, two Palestinian youths were shot dead by Israeli soldiers. The developments strained the already tense cease-fire. Palestinian officials called the decision to stop the handover of towns "unfortunate" and said they had struck a deal to collect militants' weapons, despite a top commander's announcement Wednesday that he had no plans to disarm the gunmen by force. Palestinian security and hospital officials said Israeli soldiers shot and killed two 17-year-old cousins after nightfall yesterday. The Israeli military had no immediate comment. The security officials said the youths were throwing rocks at troops guarding the separation barrier Israel is building near the village of Beit Lakia when the soldiers opened fire. Israeli military officials said about 300 Palestinians threw rocks and iron bars at soldiers, who fired warning shots in the air before shooting at the Palestinians. The Palestinian Authority issued a statement that called the killings a violation of the cease-fire. The truce, declared Feb. 8, has considerably reduced violence, but isolated incidents continue. Under the cease-fire agreement, Israel pledged to pull its forces out of five West Bank towns, while the Palestinians promised to disarm militants. Israel has pulled out of only two towns, Jericho and Tuklarem, while holding back from leaving Qalqiliya, Bethlehem and Ramallah. The Associated Press Voted Top of the Hill BEST APARTMENT COMMUNITY!

You wish he could undo it," she said. "But long term, it's the gift that keeps giving." Linda said leaving her son in the hospital was one of the hardest moments of his death. "Organ donation is a very difficult thing for a family to do because they keep the body on life support to make him look alive, and you walk away from your loved one — apparently alive," she said. The accident happened Dec. 20 when Connor and Doug were driving to their grandmother's house in Omaha, Neb. Their car hit a patch of black ice and slid into a pick-up truck. Both brothers went into comas. Doug woke up the next day, but Connor did not. He had suffered brain damage. He died at 7:50 a.m. on Christmas Eve. His driver's license, as of May 2003, showed he wanted to be a donor. The Nebraska Organ Recovery System, which took care of Connor's body, kept him on a ventilator to keep his lungs breathing and his heart pumping. Nebraska state law prohibits interference - including family objections - from the deceased person fulfilling his or her registered obligation, said Cynthia Wofford, Clinical Nurse Coordinator at the Nebraska Organ Recovery System. The Midwest Transplant Network, however, under special circum- stances, such as unexpect- ed deaths, gives family members the option, to override the donation, Schons said.

Although it's rare, Schons said she would tell the family member to get a wider family consent if she thought that person was imposing personal beliefs to override the donor's wishes. More than 87,000 people are waiting for an organ in the United States and most of them will die, Schons said. It's this power of final consent that makes families the real heroes, not the surgeons or social workers, Schons said.

This was one of the last photos taken of Connor with his immediate family. More than 170,000 donors are registered in the state of Kansas, which is only 6.3 percent of the state's 2.6 million people. And only 32,934 registered donors are between the ages of 18 and 24 years old, according to the Midwest Transplant Network. In Douglas County, 7,651 people of the total population of 99,962 are registered. Of 18- to 24-year-olds. 1.982 are registered. Schons said she didn't like to favor one age group over another, but younger donors were desperately needed. peratively needed. "Young people tend to have better organs," she said.

Steve Rue, who has known Connor since their sophomore year in high school, placed his name on the Nebraska registry when he renewed his driver's license two months after Connor's death. The number of lives Connor saved with his organs inspired Rue to change his feelings about organ donations. "It's pretty crazy to think seven people could be saved," he said.

Many recipients have told her it was hard for them to sit down and write a letter, thanking someone for saving their lives. Some of them have also told her they feared not meeting certain expectations of the donor's family, she said.

As mostly twenty- SARA ZAFAR opinion@kansan.com PANJU DARSHANA somethings, most of us have forgotten the simple lessons of childhood. However, college is like a second childhood, and sometimes we need to remember the lessons we learned so we can grow up and take our place in the "real world." Some of the lessons are timeless, like these four; 2. If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all. Gossip and rumors are just as common in college as they were in grade school, if not more so. Discussions and conversations are much better when everyone involved shares what they think. Inviting people over for dinner is a good way for people to share their homes and their culinary skills or lack thereof. It may sound cheesy, but so was handing valentines to everyone in the class. Everyone still ended up with something to smile about. Only now they can be much more damaging, as the consequences for a ruined reputation might be a job or an office, not just what your classmates think. 1. Sharing is caring. This seems like common sense, but people sometimes forget how important sharing is. As children, we are taught to share our toys and candy, and to bring enough for everyone in the class. Of course, we can't bring enough of anything to share with everyone in all our classes, but we can share in other ways. Gossip and talking behind people's backs is still as useless as it was when we were kids. You don't have to like a person, and venting is all right as long as what you say is not harmful, but "idle chatter" and talking badly about someone is not worth the time or the oxygen. Count to ten. The stress of college is enough to drive even the most stable person crazy. Around finals, or any important deadline, tempers are short and sparks fly. As children, whenever we got angry, we were told to count to ten before saying or doing anything, to stop us from making bad decisions. As adults, the technique still works. Taking a moment to step back, count to ten, and reevaluate the situation with a clearer head usually helps to avoid a potentially explosive situation. 4. Too much candy gives you a stomachache. Most of us remember Halloween nights, coming home with pounds of candy, and eating most of it that night, and suffering an upset stomach later. College students are known for their lack of moderation. While not true for everyone, most people have indulged in a night of drinking and partying, or staying up late studying or just because, and woken up the next morning to say "never again," only to repeat the process the next weekend. We are still learning some lessons, and college, as a second childhood, is often the last chance we have to make the mistakes of a child before becoming adults. Anything can be bad for you in large doses, and the wisdom gained from the experience of eating a pound of candy in a single night should be enough to remind any college student that everything is better in moderation. Overall, the lessons we learn as children are meant to serve us as adults, reminding us that there are some things that never change, no matter how old we get. Remembering the lessons we learned the first time around makes the college experience much more fulfilling. Zafar is a Wichita senior in history MCKERNAN'S PERSPECTIVE Whyyyy?! ANY OTHER QUESTIONS ABOUT THE FINAL? Kevin McKernan Kevin McKernan/KANSAN 'Big Religion' marginalizing free speech GUEST COMMENTARY "Hee who destroys a goode Book, kills reason it self." — Thomas Milton, Aareopagitica, 1644 This week, a small-town school board in rural Pennsylvania snatched The Buffalo Tree, by Adam Rapp, from the curriculum of the local high school. America has a long history of arbitrarily banning books — hell, the whole world does, for that matter — and it's usually in the name of some rabid religious fervor fueled by a powerful, albeit brief, wave of conservative thought. BROOKLYN But these last few rounds of banned books feels different. The whole thing reeks of Big Politics in America --- and hiding just behind that, Big Religion. This week's unfortunate incident in Pennsylvania is no different. The rural community there thought that Rapp's coming-of-age novel wasn't appropriate, just as rural communities here in Kansas thought the same of "We All Fall Down," "Annie On My Mind," The Giver" and countless others. RON KNOX opinion@kansan.com But now, the attacks have a different perspective: that the words and, moreover, the ideas in these books are simply unnecessary parts of American life: That the speech in banned books is worthless, and not protected by the first amendment. See, when books had been banned in the past, the banning body would list a few words they didn't like, gather a group to complain, and get the book pulled for a year or so, before the issue dried up and went away. In almost every notable case, books found their way back onto shelves in schools and libraries. "If the parties' intention is to deny students access to ideas with which the party disagrees, it is a violation of the First Amendment," writes Claire Mullally, an intellectual-property lawyer who writes columns on book banning for the First Amendment Center. The Supreme Court agrees with Mullally, but conservative teachers, parents and librarians don't seem to care much. And as the gulf between liberalism and religious conservatism widens, those wanting to ban books because of their words and ideas suddenly have a voice—and a microphone. "Parents who dare to speak up when their children are assaulted with sexually explicit and violent material are not 'censors'—and most definitely not [...]'threats to intellectual freedom'." Tom Minnery, vice president of public policy for Focus on the Family, a conservative watchdog group, said in a statement. Focus on the Family has done a fine job, in both activism and advocacy, of likening any sentiment they don't want to hear or read to "hard-core pornography," something they claim national library associations feverishly support. A powerful sentiment, to be certain. And their message is spreading, giving conservative parents and teachers the green light to pull books off of school library shelves at their whim, all while using the fear of pornography to justify their degradation of the First Amendment. "If this type of book is in our school, then why not have Hustler and Penthouse in the school library?" Pennsylvania school board member Otto W. Voit III said to the AP about Rapp's book. Exactly, Mr. Voit. I'm know parents all over Muhlenberg are smitten that you made the connection between Rapp's book and porno. Because if you hadn't, they might be left with the mistaken idea that they were just words on a page... just words on a page. Now, assuredly, parents are scared silly. "Oh my," they must be thinking. "If we don't act, our kids will be reading Penthouse at school, during study hall!" Okay, it seems foolish to think reasonable parents and teacher believe what Mr. Voit said. But it must be having some effect, or else Minney and his cronies wouldn't bother saying it. If the effect is fear, it may not be the actual goal. For conservative morality to flourish in any society, children must build its foundation. "Book banning satisfies their need to feel in control of their children's lives," wrote Judy Blume, a popular children's author, in an anti-censorship project for Random House. "This fear is often disguised as moral outrage." And Minnery's outrage isn't just moral, it's social. How dare our society even have books with these words and ideas in them, his group seems to be saying. But the fabric of the First Amendment is woven with the voices, words and ideas of a democracy. Unfortunately for Minnery and other conservatives, that means ideas that they might not like or find comfortable. And if some parents don't want their child reading certain books, fine by me. But freedom of speech and expression are not choices one parent or teacher can make for everyone in a group. Because that's not democracy. Maybe parents should spend a little less time on witch-hunts for books and more time teaching our kids what makes democracy work. - Knox is a Kansas City, Mo., senior in journalism Free All for Call 864-0500 Punk-rock died the first time a kid said "Punk rock's not dead."

The widely known Hendricks has been the subject of debate in town recently, and with good reason. Who would want him? When he challenged a new sexual predator law in 1997, the Supreme Court called his case "chilling". He was once quoted as saying the only way he would stop molesting children was "if he died". The legal system in the United States offers justice to all, including those who perform lewd acts which disgust the rest of us. Hendricks was sentenced to 10 years in prison, and he served that. Just as he was finishing his sentence, Kansas legislature passed a law that allowed criminals like Hendricks to be sentenced to more time in a psychological facility. None of that should matter. Now after 10 years in that system, he's being released under strict guidelines. If Hendricks moves to Lawrence, he will be under constant surveillance that amounts essentially to the highest degree of house arrest. This measure will cost the state of Kansas an estimated $278,000 for the first 15 months alone. In short, he won't be roaming the streets. Leroy Hendricks is 70 years old, and in declining health. It would be unjustified to say he is no longer a threat, but one fact is unmistakably clear: he has served his sentence. It's doubtful that the parents of his victims would agree that the 20 years spent in incarceration can make up for his crimes. But according to the legal system that we all depend on everyday, his time for release has come. Why isn't there the same amount of outrage about citizens who have been convicted of driving under the influence of alcohol time and again? Those people pose as much a risk to the public as sexual predators like Hendricks. It's because in our society, we reserve a special place in our minds for sex criminals. It's easier to watch a story on the news about a drunk driver killing a pedestrian than it is to imagine a child being raped. But that is not a reason to petition to keep Hendricks out of Lawrence. keep Hendricks successful Is it a scary thought to know that someone with such a violent past is living across the street? Yes. But are citizens in the legal position to decline this man his right to live a somewhat normal life? So the answer, as hard as it may be to accept, is that Hendricks has served his time and deserves to be part of the community. ♦ Erick Schmidt writing for the editorial board TALK TO US Andrew Vaupel, editor 864-4810 or avaupel@kansan.com Donovan Atkinson, Misty Huber, Amanda Kim Stairrett and Marissa Stephenson managing editors 864-4810 or editor@kansan.com Steve Vockrodt Laura Francoviglia opinion editor 884-4924 or opinion@kansan.com Ashleigh Dyck, business manager 864-4358 or advertising@kansan.com Danielle Bose, retail sales manager 884-435B or advertising@kansan.com Malcolm Gibson, general manager and news adviser 864-7867 or mgjblson@kansan.com Jennifer Weaver, sales and marketing adviser 884-7963 or jweaver@kansan.com EDITORIAL BOARD MEMBERS EDITORIAL BOARD MEMBERS David Archer, Vive Bolova, John Byerley, Chase Edgerton, Wheaton Elkins, Palge Higgins, Matt Hugen, John Jordan, Kyle Koch, Doug Lang, Kevin McKernan, Mike Mostaffa, Erica Prather, Erick Schmidt, Devin Sikes, Gaby Souza Sarach Satacy and Anne Weltmer. ▼ SUBMISSIONS The Kansan welcomes letters to the editors and guest columns submitted by students, faculty and alumni.

A day after his father announced that he was coming to Kansas on April 19, Dwight Lewis said he hadn't made a decision yet. Now he's made up his mind: He's going to be a Jayhawk. The 6-foot-5 junior combo guard from Archbishop Rummel High School verbally committed to Kansas yesterday. The decision came after meeting with his family and high school basketball coach, according to rivals.com. "I have given a commitment to Kansas," Lewis told rivals.com. "I really made this decision on Monday night. It feels good to get the process over with. I am really excited about the idea of playing for Kansas." "My parents love and support the decision that I have made," he added. "It's a great opportunity for me. The coaches at Kansas are great, the players are great and Kansas has an excellent tradition." Lewis told the recruiting Web site that he visited Kansas last week and that his family was pleased with his decision. He is the 84th-ranked high school basketball player in the class of 2006 and is the 21stranked small forward, according to rivals.com. Lewis averaged 27 points, nine rebounds and 4.5 assists as a junior, and he was considering Oklahoma and Louisiana State as well as Kansas. He is the first player in the class of 2006 to commit to Kansas coach Bill Self. — Kellis Robinett BASEBALL: 5-3 Shockers 16 Zach Strauss/KANSAN Catcher Sean Richardson slides across home plate, scoring the go-ahead run in the ninth inning versus Wichita State last night. The Jayhawks defeated the Shockers, 5-3. Shocker series split Schweitzer extends hitting streak to 20 BY ALISSA BAUER abauer@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER WICHITA — The Kansas baseball team (30-21, 6-11 Big 12 Conference) opened last night's game, like it has so many others, on a hitting rally. But, the game turned into a pitchers' duel before the Jayhawks wrapped up the 5-3 victory against the Wichita State Shockers (38-15, 11-4 Missouri Valley Conference). In the last of four in-state rivalry games this season, the two teams continued their streak of putting on a good show for a crowd full of Read about a Shocker tradition Jayhawk fans can only dream of on page 4B. Shocker a n d Jayhawk fans and split the series at two games apiece on the year. "It was a big win for us," junior first baseman Jared Schweitzer said. "This is a tough place to play." Hot bats early in the evening caused the lead to shift back and forth before the game stabilized at a tie for much of the night. Senior catcher Sean Richardson blasted a three-run shot, his fourth of the season, over the left field fence in the top of the first and gave Kansas an early 3-0 lead, giving the false impression that the game would develop into the expected slugfest. "It felt good," Richardson said. "It's been a long time since I've done that, so I didn't really know what to do." The Shockers answered right back in the bottom of the first off the bat of first baseman Derek Schermerhorn, cutting the Kansas lead to two. Schermerhorn went 1-4 and drove in two runs in the contest. Continuing to chip away at the lead, the Shockers hit two more runs in the bottom of the third. Left fielder Phil Napolitan and second baseman Damon Sublett both scored in the inning and tied the game at three. Napolitan led the Shockers going 2-4 and scoring "We get the three spot in the first and they tied it up in the third," Kansas coach Ritch Price said. "But we kept competing and we made some bigtime plays defensively." two of their three runs. After the first, the generally explosive Jayhawk offense went quiet as freshman left-hander Rob Musgrave (1-0) blanked the Kansas bats through the fifth inning before right-hander Kohl Nanney relieved him. Musgrave received a no-decision and the dose of bad luck, as he was tagged for three runs in his four innings pitched, and all three were unearned. "It was frustrating. He tied our guys up pretty good," Price said. "You can tell our guys like the fastball, there's no doubt about that." The lajhawks started a freshman of their own in right-hander Tyson Corley (1-0). Corley, who had a previous career high of three strikeouts , sat seven Shocker batters down on strikes and walked only one. "We're really proud of him," Price said. "The progress he's made in three months is phenomenal. He's got a chance to help us." Corley hit his stride in the fifth inning, retiring 10 batters in a row during one stretch between the fifth and the seventh innings. Corley allowed just three runs and scattered seven hits in his 62/3 innings of work.

Missouri defeated Kansas 3-0 yesterday afternoon at Arrocha Ballpark. Jayhawks face Big 12 tournament BY DREW DAVISON ddavison@hansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWITTER The Kansas softball team lost to Border Showdown rival No. 18 Missouri yesterday, 3-0, at Arrocha Ballpark. "It was a curveball, and she did a good job with her hands," Settlemier said. "It was a good job on her part." Roening was named USA Softball National Player of the Week after helping Missouri take down the top team in the conference, Texas A&M, last week. Janessa Roening, Missouri right fielder, led the Tigers to victory with a three-run home run off of Serena Settlemier, junior pitcher, in the bottom of the third inning. She said she had a lot of respect for the Tiger offense, and there was a good reason they were No. 18 in the country. There was little action throughout the game other than the Missouri homer. She said the team knew the Tigers were coming in with confidence after a big weekend against the Aggies. "It was a well-pitched, well-played ballgame," Kansas coach Tracy Bunge said. The Jayhawks got four hits in the first inning, but they weren't able to capitalize. When they knocked off Missouri on April 13, they leapt out to an early lead, allowing them to settle down. "Missouri came in with a better game plan." Bunge said. MISSOURI 3.

Not only was last night's 3-0 loss to Missouri the softball team's largest crowd of the season, it also brought out a slew of local athletics stars. Football coach Mark Mangino was there, accompanied by his wife Mary Jane. Linebackers Nick Reid and Kevin Kane, seniors-to-be, showed up with a group of friends. Women's basketball coach Bonnie Henrickson also came out to support the team. The crowd of more than 500 saw the Jayhawks play a pretty good game at the beginning and a pretty good game at the end. In fact, if you take away Missouri's third inning, the game was practically perfect. Kansas had base runners in several innings but missed several opportunities to score. The Jayhawks even managed to accumulate four hits in the first inning without getting a single run across the plate (a double play allowed Missouri to stay out of trouble). Softball coach Tracy Burge and her team not only squandered an opportunity to put Kansas back in the race for the Border Showdown title, but they also blew an opportunity to show its biggest crowd of fans that it was worth coming out for another game.

Webb was a first-team all-state selection last year, racking up 11 interceptions during his junior season at the cornerback position. Webb and Rambo are both juniors at Wilmer Hutchins High School.

Despite running against professional athletes from all over the world, she was disappointed. "I did terrible," Hann, Sacramento, Calif. senior, said after the race. "But hopefully I'll do better in the triple jump." The triple jump had already started. After a quick stretch, Hann entered the third flight of the Tell us your news Contact Bill Cross or Jonathan Kealing at 864-4858 or sports@kansan.com. Hann women's triple jump. She dominated it. She jumped 43-feet-3.75-inches, defeating Team Nike's Vanitta Kinard by two inches in front of a hometown crowd. Performances like this show why Hann has remained among the top triple jumpers in the Big 12 Conference. Her composure under pressure and relaxed competitiveness give her an edge above her competition. "I do better when I'm relaxed," Hann said. "I'll get nervous if I get too psyched out." The University of Kansas hurdles coach Elisha Brewer said she had noticed the psychological effect on Hann's performances. "The key for her is to help her relax and go into the meet with the right frame of mind," Brewer said. In high school, Hann lettered four years in track and field. She made it to state finals in the triple jump, 100-meter hurdles and 300-meter hurdles. She chose Kansas from other programs such as University of Nevada and University of California-Berkelu Y" "You want your senior year to go out with a bang. We wanted this to be her best year." Elisha Brewer Kansas hurdles coach Hann's mother, Deborah, didn't have much time to see her daughter compete in high school. But she made it to Palo Alto, Calif., when Hann made it to the junior nationals three years ago. Hann jumped 41-feet-8.75-inches, finishing first. "She was really excited," Deborah Hann said. "I could tell because I could hear her screaming." Coming off a successful indoor season, where she placed 10th at the national championships, she has set a goal for her last three weeks as a Jayhawk: to re-set the women's outdoor triple jump record for the third time, making it harder for the University's next Brooklyn Hann to defeat. She first broke the record in 2002 with a jump of 42-feet-11-inches. She defeated her own record in April at the Tom Botts Invitational in Columbia, Mo. with a jump of 43-feet-7-inches. "You want your senior year to go out with a bang," Brewer said. "We wanted this to be her best year." Hann's success in the triple jump provided gust into the dusty record books. Before Hann, the Jayhawk who came closest to the record was Yolanda Taylor in 1988. Her record at the time was 41-feet-10-inches. Hann is not an outspoken ieader, Brewer said.

SPORTS ADMINISTRATION Perkins recognized for achievements By Ross Fitch rfitch@kansan.com KANANS STAFF WRITE Writer The University of Kansas Athletics Department has brought in more than $60 million in the last two weeks between contracts with adidas and ESPN, but this week has been particularly rewarding for Athletics Director Lew Perkins. Perkins was elected to the Board of Trustees for the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame on Tuesday. He also will receive an honorary education degree from the University of South Carolina Aiken tonight, where he was a coach and athletics director for 11 years. Perkins said he was thrilled to join the board of trustees. "The game of basketball has made a tremendous impact on my life," he said. "I now have a great opportunity to give back to the game I love. It means even more to me now that I'm at Kansas, where Dr. Naismith coached and began the great legacy that is Kansas basketball." Jim Marchiony, associate athletics director for external affairs, said Perkins' election to the hall of fame board reflected well on the University. "Whenever someone is recognized like this, it points out the fact that Kansas is a pretty special place with a lot of accomplished people," Marchionny said. The hall of fame is recognizing Perkins' long-time contributions to men's and women's basketball and the visionary role he can play in the hall of fame's future. Marchiony said. The hall of fame looks for board of trustee members who are passionate about basketball and have an interest in promoting the game, said Scott Zuffelato, vice president for advancement for the hall of fame. "Lew was the perfect candidate because he has spent his lifetime in basketball," Zuffelato said. "He has a tremendous passion for the game." Zuffelato said the 39 board members upheld the bylaws of the organization, helped dictate policies and attended meetings, which were held twice a year. He also said the hall of fame was nonprofit, so it needed candidates who could help raise money. This also made Perkins a good choice. Zuffelato said that, in Perkins' case, having a candidate with connections to the University of Kansas was also Perkins important. Fifteen hall of famers are KU alumni, which is remarkable, he said. The Naimmith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame building was founded on Feb. 17, 1968, on the Springfield College campus in Springfield, Mass. The first induction class in 1959 included Ed Hickox, a Springfield College basketball coach and National Association of Basketball Coaches president, and James Naismith, the founder of basketball and the first Kansas coach. Zuffelato said 263 people were now enshrined. In addition to receiving an honorary degree, Perkins also will deliver the commencement address tonight at USC Alken. He served as the school's athletics director from 1969 to 1980 and was the head basketball coach from 1969 to 1979. During those years, the university grew from a junior college to a four-year institution. USC Aiken will award Perkins the degree for his achievements in intercollegiate athletics, his role in developing the USC Aiken campus and for his "personal commitment to upholding high standards and ethical principles in all aspects of his life." Perkins received the National Invitation Tournament's Man of the Year award in March and the 2000 National Athletic Director of the Year Award, while at the University of Connecticut. He has been at the University of Kansas since June 2003 and has been athletics director at the University of Maryland and Wichita State. Perkins also was a highly recruited basketball player in his youth and played for the University of Iowa under hall of fame coach and KU alumnus Ralph Miller. - Edited by Megan Claus Senior leader excelled despite slow start PROFILE After soccer injury swimming became a driving passion BY KELY REYNOLDs kreynolds@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER Becca Zarazan doesn't define her career with swimming efforts, but with the coaches and teammates that have made her career enjoyable. in the 100 butterfly.

At the 2001 state meet, Zarazan captured second place "I've always been a butterflier," Zarazan said. "It was my event, my baby. I loved swimming butterfly." Kansas has not always been her home. She has lived in Houston, Chicago, Phoenix and Overland Park. Her family lives in Southlake, Texas, a suburb of Dallas. Zara zan also was not always a swimmer. She played soccer as a high-school freshman, but her season was cut short by a hip injury. She decided to try. Zarazan out for swimming as a sophomore where, unlike many of her teammates who had swum for years, she had only one year of previous swimming experience in middle school. "I absolutely fell in love with the sport, my team and my coach," she said. Zarazan knew that she wanted to be a collegiate athlete. Athletics have always been important to her family, Zarazan said. "My dad played football for Drake," Zarazan said. "My mom was a gymnast there, too." As college approached in 2001, Zarazan decided that she would swim at Colorado State University. In her freshman campaign with the Rams, she finished seventh place in the 200 butterfly and sixth place in the 100 butterfly at the Mountain West Conference Championship in 2002. She also was a part of the All-Academic Mountain West Conference team. Despite a successful season at Colorado State, unexpected family problems led Zarazan back to the Kansas City area. "I wanted to be closer to my family during that time," Zarazan said. Although Zarazan was a member of the KU sophomore class in 2002, she fit in well with the freshmen class and new "I was torn between two classes," Zarazan said. "It was like being a freshman all over again." Campbell said that he was aware of the significant time Zarazan had spent in the pool while at Colorado State. "It became more a matter of helping her continue to develop," Campbell said. From the beginning of her Jayhawk career, Zarazan's goal wasn't to be a captain, she said. "My goal was to be the best for my team," she said. Campbell, however, said he could see Zarazan as a leader from the beginning. He said it was the little things that started to add up. "She always gave 100 percent," Campbell said. "If people came to her, she was always willing to help people one-on-one. She was not afraid of work." training environment, Zarazan said. Zarazan served as co-captain this year alongside seniors Amy Gruber and Miranda Isaac. The three created a competitive Zarazan was a major contributor in the butterfly and freestyle events, although she did not end her career on the note that she wanted to, she said. Zarazan's best time in the 100 butterfly was a 56.06, set her junior year, but her fastest time senior year was just a 58.38 recorded at the Big 12 Conference Championships. "It happened so fast with such intensity," Zarazan said. "Now I'm starting to be Becca the grown-up, not Becca the athlete." Zarazan is considering a career publishing after she graduates in December, and she is particularly interested in the magazine industry. Whatever life may bring her after graduation, swimming has her prepared. AUTO RACING "Swimming teaches you a lot about heart, love-hate relationships, determination, loyalty and communication," Zarazan said. Edited by Ross Fitch NASCAR returns for Mother's Day DARLINGTON, S.C. — Dale Jarrett shrugs his shoulders when he looks at what has become of the old country track he used to visit when his daddy went racing. Gone is the big scoreboard and play structure at Darlington Raceway where Jarrett would climb while his father, Ned, mixed it up with NASCAR stars of the 1960s. Now, rising up around the track's perimeter is a multimillion-dollar lighting system. And Darlington's first official night race, the Dodge Charger 500 on Saturday, is also a NASCAR departure — running on Mother's Day weekend, normally an off week in Nextel Cup. He said studies show that NASCAR spectators have shifted in the past two decades from about 70 percent men and 30 percent women to almost 50-50. That means more families are bringing mom along to watch the race with them, Browning said. At first, Darlington president Chris Browning saw the switch to Mother's Day weekend as one more step toward the eventual demise of the longtime Nextel Cup venue. Then he realized demographics had changed in the past two decades. Pete Jacobelli/The Associated Press NBA BASKETBALL Okafor named Rookie of the Year NEW YORK — Charlotte Bobcats forward Emeka Okafor won the NBA's Rookie of the Year award yesterday, the first former college player to win the award in four years. Okafor, the No. 2 overall pick in the NBA draft, led all rookies in scoring and rebounding and was second in his class behind Atlanta's Josh Smith in blocks. He also ranked second in the NBA with 3.8 offensive rebounds per game. He ended his season with 47 games in double figures in both points and rebounds.

Owens- FLOWER SHOP 846 Indiana www.owensflowers.com 785.843.6111 [Image of a young child] --- Beery good time on 'The Hill' BY MATT WILSON mwilson@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER WICHITA — The University of Kansas has many great atmospheres for its sporting events. None, however, are quite the same as the one that Wichita State fans enjoy on baseball game day. There is nothing like a night of cheap entertainment to a col- Located just beyond the outfield wall is an area affectionately known by Shockers fans as "The Hill." There you'll find Shockers fans of all kinds, from small children to twenty-something students to men and women who, over the years, have seen their fair share of baseball. the tradition is nothing new. Before there was a fence between the parking lot and outfield wall, people would back their pickup trucks up to the fence and enjoy the game while tailgating. Now, a manned gate provides the entrance to the grassy area. The rules, however, have remained mostly the same: bring your own beer, just as long as it's not in a glass bottle. lege student. The Hill has provided such an opportunity for the past three springs for Wichita State junior Josh Kinnevan. He and his cronies sit on a rock ledge, drink beer and heckle opposing outfielders. To them, it's one of the things that keeps them coming back to Eck Stadium. "It's a great deal," Kinnevan said. "It's free with your student ID, so all it costs you is the price of your beer." Kinnevan said he'd seen some crazy things on The Hill. "There was a game once where somebody brought a keg in," he said. "That was pretty funny." Young and old alike take part in the fun. Les Howard, who has been attending Shocker games regularly since 1992, is one of the mainstays of The Hill. He and a group of his fellow fans decided to take their support to another level three years ago when the started a club called the "Captain Morgan Marauders." They started with three members and now have nine or 10, depending on whom you talk to. "Everyone out here knows us," Howard said before greeting a teenage Wichita State supporter with a handshake. "Nobody can walk past us without slapping my hand and saying 'Shocker fan, Shocker fan!'" For KU fans that live in the Wichita area, games like Wednesday's provide a rare opportunity to see their Jayhawks in action. Marcus Jauregui, 1999 KU graduate, takes advantage of the outstanding atmosphere by attending nearly every Wichita State home game, no matter whom the Shockers are playing. "It's a great place to hang out and meet people you wouldn't get a chance to talk to otherwise," Jauregui said. "It adds a lot to the game." He said he usually cheers for the Shockers, but he enjoys getting a chance to support the Jayhawks. "I wear my KU stuff whenever I can," Jauregui said. "I get some crap out here, but it's fun." The possibility of seeing a setup similar to Wichita's in Lawrence is unlikely. Current University of Kansas policy prohibits the sale of alcohol on campus, including at sporting events. The proposal to be considered Saturday by the University's Memorial Corporation Board would allow beer sales only at the Jaybowl. There is also no place adjacent to the stadium that lends itself to a scene like The Hill. Kansas baseball coach Ritch Price, however, said that he would be open to the idea of beer at Hoglund Ballpark if it helped the program. "If it would increase attendance, I think it would be worth exploring." Price said. Jauregui said that it would entice him to visit Lawrence more often for baseball games "That would be great," he said. "I used to enjoy the games when I was there, but it would create a more fun environment for the fans for sure." Price's main worry would be crowd control if patrons were irresponsible. in response. "The only problem would be security if fans had too much to drink and got obnoxious." Howard said The Hill was a place where parents can bring their families and not worry about things getting out of control. "It's a family out here," he said. "Everybody just has a good time." Edited by Jesse Truesdale NBA Wizards defeat Bulls at buzzer BY RICK GANO THE ASSOCIATED PRESS CHICAGO — Gilbert Arenas foiled a remarkable comeback by the Chicago Bulls and pushed the Washington Wizards within one victory of the second round of the playoffs. Arenas hit a 14-foot jumper at the buzzer last night, sending Washington to a dramatic 112-110 victory and a 3-2 series lead. Game 6 is tomorrow at the MCI Center. Chicago's Jannero Pargo hit a three-point shot, his third of the fourth quarter, to tie the game with 5.2 seconds remaining. But after a time-out, Arenas took the ball out front, moved left with former Kansas guard Kirk Hinrich guarding him and hit one of the biggest shots of his career. his career. Larry Hughes scored a career playoff-high 33 points for the Wizards, who had a 10-point lead with 41 seconds to go. The Wizards have beaten the Bulls 10 straight times on their home floor, and another victory would make Washington just the ninth team to come back from a 0-2 deficit in a sevengame series. game series. A pair of three-pointers by Pargo and another by Hinrich with 11.6 seconds left cut the lead to 109-107. Hughes then sank the second of two free throws with 11.4 seconds to go to put Washington up by three. The Wizards then foiled Hinrich before he could get off a 3-pointer with 9.2 seconds left. Hinrich missed both, but scrambled for the ball and somehow flipped it to Pargo, who hit a 5-pointer from the left side to tie it. CONGRATULATIONS CLASS OF 2005! But Arenas, who finished with 16 points on just 5-for-14 shooting, put an end to the celebration. Our graduation gift to you...a free Alumni Association membership!

All of Missouri's three runs were scored in a single inning. able to get two hits the rest of the name because it was pressing. Falls CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B In front of the biggest crowd this season, 508 in attendance, the 'Hawks stranded five runners. Kansas will finish the regular season on the road against another conference opponent, Iowa State, in Ames, Iowa. Bunge said the Cyclones had been improving, and the Jayhawks would have their work cut out for them. With the Big 12 Conference Tournament right around the corner, the Jayhawks need these victories to avoid playing in the play-in game. "We would have liked to get this one and got more points for the Border Showdown," Bunge said. "We have to win two, period. If we don't win, we're going to be in "We would have liked to get this one and got more points for the Border Showdown." If they were in the play-in game, it would be a difficult road for the Jayhawks. First, they would have to win the play-in game at 5 p.m. on May 11. seventh place and we'll have to in the play-in game," Bunge said. Tracy Bunge Kansas softball coach Then, at 7:30 p.m., they would be set to take on the No. 2 seed in the tournament. Series CONTRUED FROM PAGE 1B "Corley is a strange ranger," Richardson said. "I think it helps that he's so clueless — but in a good way. He pitched great." After allowing a base runner in the seventh, Corley was relieved by sophomore left-hander Sean Land (4-4). Land finished the seventh before junior right-hander Kodiak Quick (9-5) took over in the eighth. Hititak since the fifth, junior outfielder A.J. Van Slyke tagged a single in the eighth, only to be caught in a rundown between first and second. The Shockers mounted a longer-lived rally in their half of the eighth, although it proved to be just as useless. With two on and only one out, Quick worked out of the jam by inducing the double play ball that ended the inning. The Jayhawks broke the scoring drought in the top of the ninth. Sophomore left-hander Noah Booth (4-6) walked Richardson before first baseman Jared Schweitzer knocked a double into left field. Richardson then scored the game-winning run on a dropped third strike play. Schweitzer would add the insurance run after freshman second baseman Ryne Price collected the sacrifice fly. Schweitzer's double extended his hitting streak to 20 games, just one behind Kansas record holder Ryan Baty, who held a 21-game streak last season. "I was getting a little nervous, but I tried not to think about it," Schweitzer said about the streak. "All the guys on the team were rooting me on in my last at bat. It was nice to get a hit. I was relieved." Quick took home the win after allowing no runs and no hits in the bottom of the eighth.

Kansas will take on the No. 3 Texas Longhorns in a three-game series at Hoglund Ballpark this weekend. Edited by Kendall Dix Kealing CONTINUED FROM PAGE 18 the team's only senior, said after the game, which was senior night. "We were pretty confident." McVey said the team could have been too confident but didn't take Missouri for granted. Kansas had been on an eight-game winning streak, including sweeping then-No. 5 Oklahoma. Sure Missouri is ranked No. 18, but this game was at home in the comfy confines of Arrocha Ballpark. There's no reason the team let this Border Showdown slip away. "We would have liked to have had this one," Bunge said. "We would have liked to have gotten some more points for the Border Showdown." This year's Border Showdown has been a bit rough for the Jayhawks. They bolted out to an early lead with victories in football, soccer and men's cross country, only to see the Tigers whittle away the lead with victories in volleyball and swimming, among other sports. Kansas was able to pull back ahead through the basketball season, but Missouri has slowly regained the lead. Last night's softball game put Missouri far enough ahead that Kansas is going to need a lot of help to claim its third consecutive Border Showdown title. Kansas needs to take all three baseball games against the nationally-ranked Tigers, pick up a point each from the men's and women's cross country teams and also get at least two victories from Big 12 and NCAA Tournament victories against Missouri. It's not likely to happen. Not only is Missouri's baseball team awfully good, but Kansas' team is awfully streaky. Sure the team has taken games from top-tier opponents, but it has yet to sweep a series against a quality opponent. The Border Showdow came down to just one pitch. Junior pitcher Serena Settlemier let one pitch hang in the exact wrong spot, resulting in a home run. Too bad. Maybe next year. + Kealing is a Chesterfield, Mo., sophomore in journalism and political science. A Malfunctioning Transmission is nothing to be ashamed of.

Huh/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS While Chicago improved the best record in the major leagues to 20-7, the last-place Royals lost for the 14th time in 17 games and dropped to 7-20 despite outhitting the White Sox 9-6. Jermaine Dye's RBI single broke a 1-1 tie in the fourth, and Pierzynski followed with his second homer of the season. Aaron Rowand started the rally with a two-out bloop single and scored on Dye's hit. Freddy Garcia (3-1) gave up two runs and eight hits in 6 1/3 innings and Dustin Hermanson, Chicago's fifth pitcher, got five straight outs for his fourth save. Runelyys Hernandez (1-4) lost his fourth straight decision, giving up four runs and six hits in 7 1/3 innings. All but one of batters who reached on the first five hits Hernandez allowed scored. Garcia was in and out of jams all game and the bullpen inherited one in the seventh. Garcia was pulled with one out and two men on. After a passed ball advanced the runners to second and third, and Neal Cotts loaded the bases with a walk to Ruben Gotay. Cliff Polite relieved and gave up Mike Sweeney's sacrifice fly to center, with Mark Teahen sliding to just beat the throw from Rowand on a close play. Politte then struck out Ken Harvey to end the inning. the third on Sweoney's two-out double. Shortstop Jian Uribe's relay throw to Pierzynski at the plate was in time to catch David Dejesus, but the ball sailed a little wide and Pierzynski couldn't hold on. Kansas City took a 1-0 lead in Cardinals, Rolen back in the saddle St. Louis left-hander allows three singles; team's record 10 games over .500 BY JOE KAY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS CINCINNATI — Only 26 games into the season, the St. Louis Cardinals have reached their first goal. They're 10 games over the break-even mark and looking good. Scott Rolen returned from a sore back and hit a two-run homer Wednesday night, sparking the Cardinals to a 7-3 victory and three-game sweep of the Cincinnati Reds. Mark Mulder's seven shutout innings helped St. Louis improve the NL's best record to 18-8, the Cardinals' best start since 1948. Getting 10 games over .500 was the first of manager Tony La Russa's many goals for the defending NL champions. It didn't take them long. "It's a step," La Russa said. "If that's the only step we take this year, it will have been a disappointing season. But that's how you get there, step by step." St. Louis got swept by Boston in the World Series last season, but retooled its lineup and replenished a pitching staff that's been one of the majors' best so far. Mulder (4-1), acquired from Oakland in December, kept it going against a struggling line-up. The left-hander allowed only three singles — two of them infield hits — over seven innings. He retired his last 13 batters and didn't allow a runner past first base. SALTY IGUANA 6TH & WAKARUSA 785-312-8100 Continue the Party on Friday! CINCO ON THE 6TH FRI.

An opportunity to purchase the facility was made available to both the University and the hospital, but it did not fulfill the needs of the University, Dennis McCullough, director of public and government relations, said. Growth has been an issue at the hospital since it became financially independent from the University in 1998, he said. The price the hospital offered for the property was not disclosed. The Johnson County appraiser's office's appraised value for the property in 2005 is about $7.5 million, up $5.7 million from the previous year's assessment. Located one and a half miles from the hospital's campus at 39th Street and Rainbow Boulevard in Kansas City, Kan., the space will provide space for growing programs while still fulfilling a commitment for health care to the Kansas City area. Finance and information management are some of the back office departments that will move to the facility, McCullough said. Several outpatient services will also move to the facility, but it is unclear which ones at this time. The hospital had been searching for cost-effective space, and was glad to close the deal with Soript. McCullough said. FRIDAY, MAY 6, 2005 Ty Beaver EMPLOYMENT Contract impact Letter opens GTA renewal negotiations BY TY BEAVER beaver@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER To the beat of plastic bucket drums, the graduate teaching assistant union, or GTAC, held posters and cheered in front of Strong Hall as it ceremoniously opened negotiations for GTA contracts at the University of Kansas yesterday. Every three years the contracts for GTAs open up for changes and amendments. The current contracts expire on Oct.1. A group of about 30 students rallied in front of Strong Hall before heading to the provost's office to deliver a petition with more than 150 signatures and a letter listing requests for negotiations. Delivery of the letter to the provost's office was a courtesy, Provost David Shulenburger said. To officially open negotiations, the GTAC must deliver a letter and petition to Human Resources. A group of graduate students delivered the letter and petition to Faucher after the union left the Provost's office, Brian Azcona, New Orleans, La., graduate student and GTAC co-president, said. Contract negotiations ended in success for the union three years ago, with increases in salaries and the University advocating better health insurance for GTAs to the state. Since then, new policies have appeared that limit that success, Azcona said. "There are ways outside of the contract for them to interpret it." he said. One of those policies was the 10-semester limitation on GTAs. A student may serve as GTA for only 10 semesters and must then convert to the status of lecturer to continue working for the University. Lecturers do not receive the same benefits of a GTA he said, and it takes some students seven to eight years to finish all of their graduate studies, Arizona said. The policy was a way to get back at the union for concessions they made three years ago, he said. The policy was also causing a reduction in the number of GTAs at the University, he said. Smutenburger acknowledged the policy, but said that GTAs had not decreased at the University. In 2000, there were 921 GTAs, he said. Currently, there are 935. The GTAC also wants to address the grievance procedure against the University for GTAs. Currently, the University does not have to acknowledge and enforce rulings made through the procedure. Azcona said. "It's a GTA's one way to enforce their contract and it doesn't have any teeth to it," he said. There have been few grievances in the last few years, Shulenburger said, but that concern and others would be addressed during the negotiations. Both parties hope that negotiations go quickly. At least one meeting between students and the University may occur before the end of the semester, Shulenburger said. No negotiations will occur during the summer because of the absence of many GTAs. They will meet again at the beginning of the Fall 2005 semester, he said. ARTS Artist to display paper cuts - Edited by Austin Caster Student uses scraps for TV-inspired pieces BY NEIL MULKA nmulka@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER IF YOU GO TJ. Tangpuz is living proof that television influences children. While growing up Tangpuz loved "Transformers" and "The Muppet Show." "I loved Transformers." Tangpuz, Kansas City, Mo., continuing education student, said. "It's probably what got me into making things. I made a lot of my toys when I was a kid." He loved them so much he started to make toys out of paper because his parents couldn't afford to buy them. ♦ What: Paper: Reloaded, featuring the work of T.J. Tangpuz. When: Tomorrow, 6 to 10 A young man carefully positions a large wooden mask in a workshop setting. The mask features intricate carving and is part of a traditional artifact collection. It is being crafted by an artist named Alex, who specializes in woodworking and craftsmanship. - Where: Olive Gallery & Art Supply, 15 E. Eighth St. The showing, entitled "Paper: Reloaded," will feature about eight sculptures by Tangpuz, mostly made of paper. "He primarily uses scrap paper," John Hachmeister, associate professor of sculpture, said, "And creates value from it." It turned out to be a creative blessing that's getting him noticed. This weekend Tanguzp will have his second non-academic showing this weekend at the Olive Gallery and Art Supply, 15 E.Eighth St. Standing at about 5 feet tall, the brown paper head has big eyes and a simplified look similar to one of Jim Henson's creations. The eyes and mouth can open and close by manipulating levers behind the head. Source: The Olive Gallery & Art Supply One of the works, "Head Studies," is where the "Transformers" and the "Munpets" influences collide. "That's kind of what sparked it all," Tangpuz said. "I think when you're that young and forced into that kind of a situation it forces you to be a little bit more creative." Photos by Brian Lewis/KANSAN T. J. Tangpuz displays the moveable eyes and mouth of his sculpture. It will be on display at the Olive this weekend with other pieces of Tangpu's work. Tangpu has a degree in sculpture and is studying for a degree in metals. Another work expected to be displayed is a black horse head with a mane made from shredded paper that falls almost naturally onto the neck. Another work, called "Accordion ring" can be worn on the person's hand and has a miniature accordion that moves with the fingers. "My treehouse" Tangpuz also made his studio from scraps. Below the sculpture room in the Art and Design building there is group of studios called the Sub Base, which resembles "The Pit" from the 1992 film "PCU," complete with old couches and walls covered in graffiti, but sans the booze and the metal band. In Tangpuz's section he works in what he calls his treehouse — a double-decker loft space made up of throw-away materials. Painted all-blue, a seven-step spiral staircase leads up the upper level where Tangpuz stores some of his projects. Below the loft area is his workshop. "The they were remodeling the woodshop upstairs, so they had these empty cabinets, and they were throwing them away and I was like 'No way,'" he said. "The nice thing about being a sculptor is that we're highly resourceful. Some people see junk, we see potential." T. J. Tangpuz unveils a sculpture he is working on in his workshop at the Art and Design building. Tangpuz will have pieces on display and for sale at the Olive, 15 E. Eighth St., this weekend. The loft takes advantage of the high ceilings of the Sub Base and gives his studio mate Desiree Warren, Ottawa senior and a wood carver, more room to work. "I think that it's great that he's utilizing his space," Warren said. "I have tendency to spread out." "When people look for me I tell them to find the studio with the spiral staircase," she said. The spiral staircase also becomes a landmark. Warren said. job and working in his studio, Tangpuz estimates he spends 50 hours a week in the Art and Design building. "He has a genuine dedication to his art," Hachmeister said. "That dedication is infectious and students identify that and try do it." His work ethic has spread to Warren. When he sticks around, she wants to as well because he is so fun to work with, she said. Tangpuz remembers his parent's work ethic, which is the inspiration for long hours in the Sub Base. Between classes, having a student An infection "He's the hardest working person SEE ARTISTS ON PAGE 3A STUDENT HOUSING Stephenson residents kicked out BY ERIC SORRENTINO esrentino@kansan.com KANSAST STAFF WRITER Stephenson Scholarship Hall, known for years for its rowdiness and wit, will likely change in the fall. Residents of Stephenson, 1404 Alumni Place, knew they had to interview with Department of Student Housing officials to retain their spot in the hall. Few expected that they would be relocated to another scholarship hall or a residence hall. Typically, 35 students return to a scholarship hall every year, said Ken Stoner, director of student housing. To most of the 55 students who must move out next fall, the change came as a surprise. No scholarship hall has ever been called to the student housing office for individual interviews. Stoner said. "I'm just amazed," said Grant Wagner, who was kicked out of Stephenson. "I'm not so much angry, but amazed they kicked innocent people out like that. It's just really, really frustrating." Inappropriate behavior instigated the mandatory interviews. Wagner, Bennington freshman, was written up for throwing a water balloon at a car earlier semester. Stephenson residents trashed the facility and demeaned others in the hall, Stoner said in an earlier interview. The balloon went through the open window and exploded on the driver's lap. The driver was Stephenson's scholarship hall director, Richard Friesner, Wagner said. And Wagner was responsible for throwing a water balloon earlier this semester. Conditions the inside of the hall also was cause for complaint. Stephenson cannot have guests over to the hall because their kitchen failed student housing inspections, Wagner said. "I's our fault," he said. "It's dirty as hell." All residents should not be held accountable because not all of them took part in the incidents, Scotty Wheeler, Singapore junior, said. Wagner said student housing removed the wrong people from the hall. "They're kicking the innocent out along with the guilty," he said. Wheeler was guaranteed a spot in the residence halls, but said he was not interested in living there next fall. "Stephenson has always been about the people in the hall and so many people are getting kicked out," Wheeler said. "If those people aren't returning, I see no point in returning." Living in the residence halls is more expensive SEE STEPHENSON ON PAGE 3A Today's weather 80 61 Springtime!

Vol.2 Issue 30. 05.05.05 00 Editor's Note PLEASE RESPOND BY MAY 12TH. One of my friends confessed to me that she has never had an orgasm. She's been in a monogamous relationship for about two and a half years but has been in sexual relationships for the last six years. I asked her what I thought was the obvious question: Do you mean you've never had one, or you've never had one with a partner? Ask any woman and she either has a friend like this, or she says she has a friend like this when actually relating all the circumstances about herself. I was reading a column by the celebrity sex therapist Laura Berman about a woman in her 50s who came to her office lamenting the same situation. And she's one that asked for help. I think it's so sad that so many women are faking orgasms and/or never asking for help years into a relationship because they're either so ashamed that they can't do something that seems so natural to everyone else, or they feel that sex is something they just do to make they're partner happy. They'll just go through life orgasmless, never talking to their significant other. I'm not innocent of this either. My first sexual partner was in high school and we dated a year and a half with me faking the whole time — and let me tell you, I deserved an Oscar. Then when I actually experienced the real deal, I realized the connection (with my body as well as with my partner) that I'd been denying myself just because I was embarrassed to ask for what I needed. The lack of information that college students, arguably the most sexed-up genre, is astounding. Ashley Doyle answers some sex myths we have on page eight. I'm going to ask my friend to pay special attention to the question about G-spots.

P. H. B. C. D. E. F. G. H. I. J. K. L. M. N. O. P. Q. R. S. T. U. V. W. X. Y. Z. Racks of freshly baked bread splay before your eye. The options seem endless; honey whole wheat, Kansas crunch, cinnamon chip, French walnut, sourdough rye, and ciabatta. These breads are among the variety of options at two of Lawrence's local bread makers, Great Harvest Bread Co. and WheatFields Bakery. Try some hand crafted bread from one of these locally owned bakeries and experience a creation of labor and love. Great Harvest produces tender loaves of a variety of breads. Bob and Jo Ann Garrett have operated Great Harvest Bread Co., 807 Vermont St. for nine years in Lawrence. In the quaint bakery, Bob Garrett explains that they grind their own wheat flour and do not use eggs or oil, which makes their bread-creating process unique. Great Harvest makes their whole-wheat bread using 100 percent whole-wheat flour. The Food and Drug Administration requires bread that uses the term "whole-wheat" to contain at least 51 percent whole-wheat flour. By using 100 percent whole-wheat flour, Great Harvest's bread has a high nutritional content, making it a healthier option than other breads. The most popular bread, honey whole wheat, has 0 grams of fat in a slice. Also, the high fiber content in this bread (3 grams per slice) will fill you up faster and help you eat less. Great Harvest's bread is a healthier option when compared to Pepperidge Farms' 100 percent Stone Ground Whole Wheat, which has 1 gram of fat and 2 grams of fiber per slice. Great Harvest's breads include a decadent cinnamon chip and simple honey whole wheat. Stop in 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Friday or 7 a.m.to 5 p.m. on Saturday and a baker will cut you a warm chunk of your choice from a selection of freshly baked breads. Each bakery has its own unique breadmaking process. While Great Harvest grinds their own flour, WheatFields gets its organic flour from a mill in Mariental, Kansas. WheatFields baker Mikey Humphrey says the majority of the town's population about 130 work at the mill. Similar to Great Harvest, WheatFields, 904 Vermont St., also uses simple ingredients; flour, filtered water, natural leavening and sea salt. WheatFields bread is baked on a 25-metric ton, round, rotating slab of concrete in their wood-fired brick oven, tucked in the southwest corner, just next to the bakery. Humphrey says WheatFields is "as true to the form as it gets" as an Artisan bakery. An Artisan bakery means the bread is made with the simplest of ingredients, without yeast and is baked in a wood-fired oven. The Artisan baker is highly skilled in creating bread throughout the entire process, from mixing the dough, to forming the loaves, to baking the bread itself. Garrett and Humphrey both have a love for baking, which is evident in how they describe their job and working at 4 a.m. Garrett says his work gives him immediate feedback and describes working with the dough early in the morning as "tactile and sensual." At WheatFields, Humphrey beams as he pulls out of the oven a wooden board holding seven loaves of sourdough rye. "Making bread is artistic; it gives you a freedom of creativity," Humphrey says. He smiles at the 8-foot tall rack of breads he has made throughout the morning and says "Just look at the breads, they're beautiful."

Add enough chili powder to turn the sauce into a rich brown color, tasting as you go to reach the desired degree of spiciness. Hold some sauce in reserve, for final tasting. While the sauce simmers, brown and drain the ground beef and set aside to cool. Add the chopped onion and 1/2 to 3/4 of the cheese to the ground beef and mix well. Ladle the sauce as needed onto a large plate (a pie tin serves equally as well). Quickly fry the tortillas in oil and drag them through the sauce. Fill each tortilla with the meat mixture and lettuce, and roll up. Place filled tortillas, single layered in a baking pan. After the pan is filled to heavenly capacity, test the sauce for spiciness. If it's not hot enough, add more. Pour the reserved sauce over each pan and sprinkle with the remaining cheese. Place the pan in a warm oven until ready to serve.

So get the skills to do it all, and you'll be done cleaning before you know it. By Leigh Ann Foskey, Jayplay writer TAMS Open the window and turn up the music. It's time to practice your best dance moves . . . with the vacuum cleaner? Keeping your home clean can be difficult with roommates and little time. But with the motivation, the right tools and time-saving techniques, you'll have a clean house (with little effort) in no time. Laura Dellutri, a.k.a. the Healthy Housekeeper, is an expert on quick cleaning. She has appeared on the Style Network, FOX, Discovery and about 100 other channels. Recently Dellutri was a guest on The View and earlier this year she released her newest book, Speed Cleaning 101: Cut Your Cleaning Time in Haff. In the book she shares some of her tips for cleaning quickly and efficiently. It's life-savibg advice for busy college students, especially when parents can show up on a moment's notice. The four principles of clean Dellutri says there are four rules in cleaning. First, always clean from top to bottom because dust and dirt fall. Start from the highest point, the windows, and work down to couches and tables and clean the floor last. This way, you're sure to pick up all the dust. Second, work around the room in a circle. Start cleaning the outer edges of the room and move into the center. Third, Dellutri says to clean in an organized way to save time. Jumping all over a room means you are more likely to forget something. She says even adjusting the way you vacuum can make cleaning move more quickly. She says to vacuum in horizontal, overlapping strokes, not randomly. She also suggests using this pattern when cleaning things such as windows. Moving in an uneven pattern can take longer and leave you with a bigger mess. When you clean a window in circles, Dellutri says, you're more likely to miss the corners and create streaks. The last rule is to not clean what's clean. Dellutri says more is not always better, if something is already clean or looks clean, just skip over it and move onto something more important. Photo illustration by Kit Leffler The tools Following the four principles alone can save you time, but Dellutri says the tools can make a difference too. While you can clean with a 90-cent sponge, a reusable micro fiber cloth, only a few dollars more, can pick up 40 times its weight and cleans with just water. You can cut window-cleaning time from a few minutes to about 30 seconds. Don't worry about buying expensive cleaners; Dellutri says that 90 percent of your home can be cleaned with just a damp cloth. Kitchens and bathroom are the only places that need a disinfectant or sanitizer. Even carpet can be cleaned with a mixture of cold water and mild dish detergent. Roommates Dellutri says dividing housework between roommates can make things move more quickly. "Ihighlyrecommend sitting down together and picking the Some roommates never have problems keeping things clean. It just happens, says Lindsay Douglass, Lake Forest, ill. senior. "You should do whatever works. I'm just lucky to have a roommate that's clean too." But some of us aren't so fortunate. chores apart," she says. "One person does the bathroom and one does the kitchen — make a chore list and stick to it." As a rule of thumb, Dellutri says if you live alone, you only need to deep clean once a month. Deep cleaning means getting to everything—the bathrooms, kitchen and all other rooms. If there are two people, deep clean every three weeks. For three people, clean every two weeks and for four or more, you should clean at least once a week. Between the deep cleaning, just do a quick pick up. But Dellutri says deep cleaning shouldn't take very long either. She says, using the tricks, you should be able to thoroughly clean 1,000 square feet in an hour. If it's hard deciding who cleans what, Kim Hinkly, owner of Merry Maids in Topeka, says to discuss your pet peeves with your roommates. If one of you really hates toothpaste on the mirror, then be in charge of cleaning it. "It's not fun," Hinkly says. "But you have to know the expectations of your roommates." She also suggests if you like doing something or at least don't mind it, volunteer. If you don't mind vacuuming, agree to do it once a week. It makes maintaining your house a lot easier. Keeping it clean To keep your home neat and tidy, stick to your plan and get rid of clutter. Hinkly says that to help de-clutter, use a laundry basket to gather all of the items in a room, throw away any trash and put the other items where they belong. She says even though your house may not be perfect, guests won't notice any mess because everything is straight. So the next time Mom calls and says she's on her way, don't panic. Just put your speed-cleaning knowledge to use. She'll never know that two minutes before she arrived you were still recovering from what looked like a nuclear explosion.

Undressing fact and fiction in the bedroom "Not tonight. I have a head." phins, which in return cause happiness, but all of this is temporary. Relief "Not tonight. I have a headache." I must admit I am guilty of occasionally using this line. But is this excuse even true? Rumors have it that orgasms actually relieve headaches. But before we make Excedrin the headache medicine go out of business, it's time to figure out the truth about sex. Aside from wanting to know the truth, I had another agenda. I wanted to discover the sex IQ of the students at the University of Kansas. Sure we learn the basics growing up, but what about the stuff we're not taught in sex? the questions you hear by word of mouth and have no idea whether they are actually true. I asked 100 random men and 100 random women about these rumors, and let me tell you, nothing makes people more uncomfortable than the lack of sexual knowledge. Sex cures mild depression 40% of women said true 62% of men said true Reality: False While the thought of sex can put a person in a good mood, it is not known to cure any type of depression says the Women's Health Associates of Shawnee, that had RN Janet Pekarek respond with their group answers. Organs release endor- phins, which in return cause happiness but all of this is temporary, Pekerek says. Orgasmic cure headaches 13% of women said true 37% of men said true Reality: False Orgasms can temporarily relieve headaches but they won't cure a headache, Pekarek says. She says this is once again the result of the endorphins that rush around a person's body after an orgasm. So if you plan to use this method to cure a headache, don't be surprised if your head starts to hurt again within 30 minutes, Pekarek says. All women have a G-spot 9% of women said true 92% of men said true Reality: False "Stick to the clitoris," Pekarek says laughing. She says while the G-spot does exist for some women, it doesn't for every woman and they should stick with what works. "My guy friends talk about how they are going to find this spot on a girl and all I want to do is tell them to grow up," says Molly, Leawood sophomore, who asks that her last name not be used. All guys have a 10-minute refractory period 32% of women said true 12% of men said true Reality: False "I wish" was the most common response after a female answered false. Every body is built differently and this is just one of the many things that is different, Pekarek says. Some guys could be ready to go two minutes later while others need an afternoon breather, she says. Birth control can decrease a women's sex drive 54% of women said true 18% of men said true Reality: True The key word in this statement is can, Pokarek says. A few birth controls do have low sex drive as a side effect but the majority of them don't, she says. If you think yours might the easiest thing to do is check its Web site and read the side effects, then call your doctor if necessary. Men like sex more than women 36% of women said true 27% of men said true Reality: False While this statement is just a matter of preference Pekrek says they have many women coming in talking about how they enjoy sex. It's not the media that told us men like sex more than women, but rather our culture, says Barbara Barnett, assistant professor in journalism. "There were cultural values that defined masculinity as conquest — having sex with lots of women—and femininity as virginity — saving yourself for one man," says Barnett, who teaches Diversity in Media. As for the media, Barnett says most TV shows still show the virgin/whore dichotomy, which defines a woman by her sexuality as one or the other, but shows men just as men. Barnett says shows such as *Sex and the City break* this image though by showing women as a sexual being and yet still been shown just as women.

Guess again - college is a haven for guys wielding 20-sided dice 100 By Robert Perkins, Jayplay writer 1984 A grenades to the face is about the last thing John Higgins expects. But then, who ever really expects to have grenades thrown at them? Crouched behind some boxes in Morocco, the LaPorte, indJour waites while a Nazi nazi patrol wanders his past position. As their voices grow more distant, he decides he's safe to poke his head out. He's wrong. Before he can blink, the dragon comes flying, and it's game over for Higgins. After his death, Higgins sighs in frustration. He is going to have to make up a new character. This month Higgins is playing an Indiana Jones role-playing game, or RPG, set in the 1930s. RPGs are games in which the player assumes a persona and interacts with other players in a fictional world. These games can be computer based, but the classic ones, such as *Dungeons and Dragons*, are done with pencil, paper, dice and a good imagination. While the players keep track of their progress on paper maps, the game master—the person controlling the game—describes a general story line for them to follow complete with obstacles that players combat with ingenuity and "skill," as determined by rolling multi-sided dice." It's immense fun because it's basically played pretend, which everyone does as a kid, but then it adds in rules," Higgins says. Not surprisingly, RPG players aren't hard to find on college campuses such as the University of Kansas. More than 50 people are members of KU Gamers and Role players, or KUGAR, the official RPG club at the University. Its staff adviser, Jeff Lewis, has been involved in the club since 1988. The 39-year-old buyer for the KU Memorial Unions says he doesn't know how long the club has been around but thinks it was started around the mid-'70s and is just one of the gaming clubs that has existed on campus over the years. No one is sure of how many gamers are on campus, and none of the members of KUGAR that I spoke to wanted to hazard a guess. An oft-cited study estimates that there are more than four million gamers nationwide. Many say they started in junior high or high school, adding that they liked the opportunity to relax with friends. Despite the "nerd" label that has been applied to gamers by pop culture, RPGs are played by all sorts of people. Higgins, the grenade victim, says that at his high school it became a fad that everyone got into. "It started out with me and three other computer games playing and by the time graduated, even the jocks were playing it," he says. Higgins' roommate, Joel Abrahamson, also plays Riggs. Like Higgins, he doesn't try to justify his enjoyment of the games by tutoring the social aspect. Rather, he embraces the imaginary side of RPGs that let his mind wander through different worlds. The Grand Forks, N.D., senior came to college two years early and seems to have plenty of extra mind power for such activities. Not that he's lost sight of the simple pleasures of the game. "I mean, how can you not enjoy visualizing yourself as a big fighter slicing people's heads open?" he says. The history of role playing is brief but troubled. Dungeons and Dragons, or D&D was born out of proto-RPGs in 1973, produced by Gary Gygax's fledgling company TSR. Gygax declined to comment about the early days of the game in Jaylay, saying only that he has not had anything to do with it since 1868 and that he intensely dislikes the game in its current form. On June 19, 1982, a D&D player named Irving Lee "Blink" Pulling shot himself in the chest with his mother's handgun. His mother, Patricia Pulling, blamed the suicide on a "curse" that had been put on him during a game of D&D. She then formed Bothered About Dungeons and Dragons, or BADD, and began a campaign to show a connection between the game and Satanism. if, like me, your mother told you when you were a child that you couldn't play D&D, this is probably why. Mentioning Pulling's game in a crowd of gamers today evokes a collective groan and a chorus of protestations about the lack of devil-worshiping associated with the game. Since Mike the '90s, however, the anti-RPG fervor has quieted down a bit. One possible reason is that the people who started gaming in their youth have had time to grow up, and are now the ones in the media spotlight. One prominent example is Vin Diesel, who wrote a forward to 30 Years of Adventure: A Celebration of DBD. As Kimon Pugh, Stuttgart, Germany, freshman says, "The geeks are going to grow up, get famous, and be like, 'these games rule'!"

Whenever I meet a girl it always comes down to sex. Don't get me wrong, the sex is great, but I'm well-endowed and sometimes I feel like a piece of meat in the sack. I'm looking for that girl who makes me think of her in a way that is more than just sexual. a Chris, junior Jessi: Perhaps you should pick up a pair of metal underwear. Maybe then you could begin to date women without sex being a factor so early on. Get to know the person first and then bring sex into the equation when it's mutually desired. Relationships need a firm foundation built of things other than just steamy sex. All it takes is some self-respect and self-control... and those metal underoos. Chris: Waiting two months or two years to have sex won't guarantee the relationship will be any better than if you waited two days or two hours to seit up. Great couples can develop in any circumstances if the chemistry it correct. It sounds as though you're just expecting more than your partner and should enjoy what you have for what it is, consistent sex. Enjoy it whilst it lasts. Q School is killing me right now, and I can't keep my priorities straight. I want to do well in school, be a good girlfriend to my guy, spend enough time with my girlfriends and I can't do all three without someone feeling neglected. What should I do? a Amy, junior Chris: Have they told you they feel neglected or are you just assuming? You may be doing a better job than you think you are. And if someone is feeling left out of your life, make what time you do have count. Maybe surprise your BF with something different in bed, go out to a nice dinner with all your GF's and drop all your classes. Even those for next fall. It'll work, trust me. Jessi: I like lists. Call it old-fashioned, but when you list the things that matter to you most in life and see it visualized on paper (gym with Julie or dinner-date with Freddy), it puts things in perspective and helps motivate you to work for those things. Don't forget your "me-time" in the meantime. It'll benefit you and your fav people when you invest in yourself. Q There's this girl in one of my classes that I'm crazy about, but it's a big lecture class and we've never met or sat by each other. I'm wanting to talk to her, but this late in the semester it'll seem dumb to introduce myself. And I'm embarrassed she's seen me looking at her and thinks I'm psycho. Tips? -Alan, freshman a Jessi: Well, since you're physically obsessing over her, (and yes, you're obsessing if you're "crazy" about someone based on looks alone), then it's probably time you approached her as more than just eye candy. I'm a fan of "I'm really not a whatever-class-it-is- pro and I was wondering if you'd mind tutoring my stupid ace." This line is appropriate usually after class or during if you're somehow lucky enough to snag a seat next to this foxy minx. Chris: Maybe she has seen you looking at her. You sound like a starer. Regardless, if you end the semester without talking to her, you'll regret it for years. Or until you become fixated on some girl in summer class, I'd either sit where she usually and hope she sits by or near enough you to talk to her. Then just ball up, and say hi. Get to know her a little, then if you have to, just say "I know this is out of the blue, but would you like to study for the final with me?" If she says yes, good. If she says no, say "Well, how about just getting wasted?" Got a burning question? E-mail us at bitch@kansan.com. Oct '05 St. Patty's Day '05 To Memories!

A little bit of a stretch, but at least they tried Coyote ugly? By Ashley Michaels, Jayplaywriter sat in the bar with about 50 other people, waiting impatiently for the big event. I first heard about it after taking a neon pink flier from under my windshield wiper and noticing the half-naked girl gracing the front of it. Intrigued, I read on. "The hottest bartenders in Lawrence," it said. "Coyote Ugly Night every Friday night at The Moon Bar." My first thought was wow, I love that movie. I had to see this. Coyote Ugly, for those of you who don't know, is a movie about a bar called Coyote Ugly and the girls who work there. The bartenders dance on the bar, sing, drench themselves with water and pour slips straight from the bottle into the bar patrons' mouths. Did I mention that all of the Coyote Ugly bartenders are tall, thin and beautiful? The local Coyote Ugly takes place at The Moon Bar, 821 S. Iowa. At midnight and 1:00 a.m., the bartenders take the stage. Their variation is a little different and not so complex. There are six bartenders in all: Meghann, Kelley, Aya, Jessica, Michelle and Christina. The girls Bartend all night and then at the top of the hour, they come from behind the bar. One by one they get up on the bar, liquor bottles in hand. This particular night was their debut. The beat of Ciara's "1, 2 Step" signals the first dance of the night for the Coyotes. Trying to appear confident, the girls strut out from behind the bar. Hesitantly, they walk in a single-file line trying not to laugh and looking to each other on how to act. The routine starts out with choreography making it appear that there is a method to their madness. Once on the bar, the rou 12 "It was a pretty good idea," says Sean Leon, Las Vegas senior. "They didn't play the role of the Coyote Ugly girl very well. It was something different though."

We are just bartenders that dance twice a night." tine begins. All six girls start on a different beat and the choreography lasts less than two minutes giving way to six different free-style dances. "The first night I was so nervous to do it." Christina says. "I was like, I cannot do this in front of all these people. It's cool now, it's like I'm just dancing with my girls." Every girl has on a variation of the same outfit: black shirt, denim bottoms and tennis shoes. Since then, the uniforms have changed. Now, each girl wears jeans, a Coyote Ugly T-shirt (a different color every week), and some type of stylish shoe with traction, Christina says. 12 05.05.05 Joyplay y? it on a different lasts less than o six different night I was so a says.

Long Island Iced Tea Originating in Long Island, N.Y., this cocktail dates back to the 1970s. Robert "Rosebud" Butt first mixed the Long Island iced Tea at the Oak Beach Inn in Hampton Bays, according to the book, The Perfect Drink for Every Occasion. The purpose of a Long Island iced Tea is to put as much alcohol together as possible and end up with something that tastes like iced tea. Interestingly enough, there is no iced tea in the drink. Containing five different liquors, this slightly sour drink has a tendency to sneak up on you, so drink in moderation. Any bartender who knows anything about making drinks can make a Long Island iced Tea and the price changes everywhere you go. —Ashley Michaels Wescoewit [Oh, you guys say some of the darndest things.] Not to make you all scared, but we're eavesdropping on your conversations.

Out of habit and pure dedication, Correa bolts out of her bed in the Jayhawk Towers. She grabs her sweatshirt and sweatpants off the floor where she left them the night before, slips on her yellow and green flip flops with the Brazilian flag gracing the top of the sandal and heads to the bathroom. Eyes heavy with sleep, she grabs her toothbrush and toothpaste. Leaning against the doorframe, eyes closed, to take advantage of every second of rest she can offer her eyes, she brushes her teeth. She pulls her hair back into a messy ponytail, grabs a Slim-Fast shake out of the fridge and heads out the door. Turning back to look at me she says, "I don't drink this because I want to lose weight, I just drink because I don't have time to make something to eat." It is 5:42 a.m. It is not the volleyball season and no, the team doesn't have a big game that could determine its hopes of post-season play coming up this week. They are in their spring season, practicing five times a week and strength training three times a week. This is their time to get better and prepare for their trip to Brazil at the end of May. Their regular season begins in August. Men's basketball and football are the money sports at the University of Kansas, but there are close to 500 other student athletes who work just as hard and are just as passionate about their game. Volleyball is one of the 13 nonrevenue sports at the University. They have to balance school and athletics while they still try to experience college life. The journey college student-athletes take is a hard one, regardless of where they come from or what sport they play. Correa's journey has been one of the hardest.

She started playing when she was 11 years old. When she was 15, she left her mom and grandma and moved to São Paulo, Brazil. Picture yourself moving from Kansas City to New York; it's about the same distance. She moved to São Paulo because she says the volleyball in Macapa wasn't good and there were no opportunities for her there. "It was hard leaving because it was always just me and my mom, but I had to," Corraea says. Like leaving Macapa, coming to the University was just another of many hard decisions Corraea has had to face. Correa gets to the team room in Horejsi Family Athletics Center at about 5:45 a.m. It is still dark outside, making it even harder to motivate herself for the upcoming two-hour practice. The team room is like a home away from home for the girls on the team; with a big leather couch, two leather chairs, a TV, a refrigerator and a microwave. "Most days when I get done with class, I'll go to the team room, make something to eat and try to take a nap before practice starts," says Megan Hill, junior outside hitter from Lincoln, Neb. "I'd rather get a nap than drive home, eat and then drive right back." Correa and several of the girls on the team have to arrive early to practice to see the trainer. As with any athletic team, it's seen its share of injuries. At the moment, Correa is overcoming a recent knee surgery, her third since she arrived at the University of Kansas. The first surgery was to repair an ACL tear in her right knee, the second and third were scopes to clean out both of her knees. The training room is bare this morning except for the women's volleyball team. The girls have 20 minutes in the training room. Lying on the training tables in their practice gear, eyes closed, they heat their cold, sore muscles to get ready. A atexactly 6:15 a.m., the entire team and staff are in the gym. Coach Ray Beachard says hello to everyone and begins his ritual pre-practice speech, which he seems to make up as he goes along. This morning he chooses to comment on how "awake" everyone looks. Everyone just smiles, some chuckle and it seems everyone wishes that practice would just start. "The sooner it starts the sooner it's over," someone whispers to another player. Don't misunderstand. They don't hate practice. It's just really early. To keep motivated, every once in a while they have to take a step back and look at the bigger picture and truly appreciate the opportunity given to them. But that is easier said than done at 6 a.m. So what exactly is the bigger picture? For most of the girls on the KU volleyball team, volleyball is their life, and it has always been that way. Like Correa, most have played for close to 10 years and you ask them, dreams do come true. Fifteen girls from all over the world have been given the opportunity to come to KU and play volleyball. So many girls would give anything to be where these 15 girls are right now. Seven years ago when Coach Bechard arrived at the University, the database of possible recruits was close to 200 girls. Because the program has improved over the years, the recruiting standards have gone up and the coaching staff is maybe 15 of them, and on average we bring in three girls a year." Most of the girls on the team, including Correa, are on full-ride scholarships. In all, the volleyball program has 12 scholarships to offer people. The rest of the girls on the team are walk-ons who don't receive any money from the University to play volleyball. For the girls who aren't on scholarship, life as a student-athlete is more difficult. "It sucks," says Jamie Mathewson, sophomore defensive specialist from Kansas City, Mo. "You put all the same effort out every day and you don't get all the same benefits." There are always constant reminders. For instance, the first of every month, when both of her roommates go to pick up their checks, she doesn't get one. Or after practice, when her roommates eat free at The Burge, she can't go because she is not on scholarship. "I'm Freshman middle blocker Caitin Mahoney studies in the Wagnon Student Athlete Center on Monday morning. more selective when it comes to future players. "Now we only have close to 60 girls in our database," says Jill Jones-Stucky, assistant volleyball coach. "Of those 60, we are only serious about OK with it though," Mathewson says. "I made the choice to do this and it's making me a better person." Practice ends and everyone sluggishly walks back to the locker room to take off their volleyball shoes and knee pads and put on their cross trainers. It's not time to go home and go back to bed; it's time to lift some weights. It is 8:00 a.m. "I like weights better after practice because Coach Hudy usually takes it easy on us since we've already had a workout," Mathewson says. After a 45-minute strength workout, they head back to the locker room to get changed. It is still early, but these girls are wide awake. Right away they turn on the music. Some sing, some dance and some just sit there preparing for the day they know they have ahead of them. This morning Correa has to go to the training room to get ice for her knees. The few lucky ones on the team are injuryfree, but it is rare for college athletes to end their career without some battle wounds. Many of the girls don't have time to go home before their first class so some set up camp in the team room while others go to Wagonn Student-Athlete Center to catch up on some homework. Correa sits at one of the computers working on her paper. "It probably takes you one day to write a paper," Correa says. "It is harder for me. It takes me like two weeks because my English is so bad." When Correa arrived in the United States the extent of her conversation was "hello" and "goodbye." Along with teammates Josi Lima and Paula Caten, also both from Brazil, Correa spent her first two semesters at the University of Kansas learning English. The team does well academically, holding steady at a 3.1 GPA. "I feel pretty good about the team's GPA because we were under a 3.0 the last couple of semesters," says Scott Ward, academic advisor for the women's volleyball team. "The team wasn't proud of that so they rededicated themselves to achieving not only on the court but in the classroom, too." Of the 11 girls returning next fall, eight are Jayhawk Scholars, meaning that they have a 3.0 grade point average or above. Four of the eight girls are Academic All-Big 12 Second Team (3.0 G.P.A. or above) and four of them are Academic All-Big 12 First Team (3.2 G.P.A.or above). The line of Brazilian athletes at the University began about six years ago when Coach Bechard joined the volleyball program from Barton County Community College. Danielle Geronymo, the first Brazilian to make a mark on the KU volleyball team followed Bechard. Geronymo's skills impressed him s mates creates a better connection on the court but has a potential downside."You don't want too much of a good thing," Brown says. Volleyball is fast becoming a popular sport in the United States. Trent Jones, assistant volleyball coach at Washburn University, says there are several things "Knowing that I only have four years to play my sport, it makes me play harder every time I get the chance." —Caitlin Mahoney freshman middle blocker much that he began recruiting from Brazil. In 2002, Josi Lima, junior middle blocker and one of Geronymo's best friends arrived at the University. One year later, Lima's teammate, Correa, also followed the Brazilian path to the University of Kansas. Then just this past year, Paula Caten, junior outside hitter, arrived as a junior college transfer from Barton. All three girls played together on the same team in Brazil, and when they arrived in the United States they all faced the same difficulties. It was hard for them to leave behind their families and friends. Caten left her 4-year-old daughter behind in hopes of getting an education and providing a better future for her when they are reunited. After Correa is done in the training room, she heads to class. She has class from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Mondays. After class, she goes straight to the training room for about an hour of rehab. After rehab, she hobbles over to the Burge Union for dinner with ice on both of her knees. The Burge prepares meals every Monday through Thursday night for the athletes. Tonight it is meatloaf, mashed potatoes, corn, tuna casserole and rolls. Each team sits with their respective teammates. Some people eat and leave as fast as they can, while others use this time to relax and socialize. Correa has to hurry up and finish her dinner tonight because at 6 p.m. she has tutoring and she can't be late again. Stuffing the end of a harder-thannormal rock into her mouth, she grabs her bag and an apple from the fruit bowl and limps off, ice still wrapped around both knees. Off the court, the girls all remain friends. Hill, Mathewson and Caitlin Mahoney, freshman middle blocker, live together in the same house off campus. Freshmen Kristin Buehler, middle blocker, Emily Brown, right side hitter, and Tessa Jones, right side hitter, live together in the dorms and Lima, Corrae and Caten live in the Jayhawk Towers. Emily Brown says living with yu teamthat factor into volleyball's increasing popularity. Youth club volleyball is now a common choice for both male and female athletes. More than ever, there are opportunities to play in college. With the popularity of club volleyball, kids can start as young as 9 years old. A lot of collegiate volleyball teams, especially the really good ones, now have contracts with T.V. stations introducing more people to the game. The change in the scoring system four years ago is also a big factor. The old scoring system only allowed a team to score when they served and won that rally. Now the team that wins the rally scores the point. The scoring change has made the game faster and more interesting for people to watch. When the sport is doing well, the fans follow. On a game night during season, there might be 1,000 people who attend the match, compared to the 16,000 that pour into Allen Fieldhouse for a men's basketball game. During their spring tournament at home in April, only one of the two bleachers was pulled out and there were about 40 people in attendance. Of those 40 people, about half are there to watch the Jayhawks and the others were friends and family of the other teams competing that day. It was a small tournament at Horeisi and the teams competing were all Division II or NAIA except for the University of Kansas. The teams were not at all at the skill level of the teams they would normally face in the Big 12, but it was a chance for them to play competitively. One of their matches was against the University of Nebraska-Omaha, a Division II school. They played two games to 30 points and the Jayhawks won both games easily. "The motivating factor for me in a game like this is pride," says Dani Wittman, sophomore defensive specialist from Salina. "I don't want to have to say we lost to a Division II school." When Correa has finished tutoring and doing homework that she has for the hour, it is finally time to go home. It is nearly 8 p.m. This will be the first time Correa has been home today since she woke up for practice at 5:45 a.m. When she gets home, she drops her stuff by the door and — without turning on the lights — curls up on the couch. She reaches for the T.V. remote control and turns it to BET music videos. Mario's "How Could You" sings her into a short 20-minute nap. When she wakes up from her nap, she saunts off to the bathroom. "I am going to take a shower," Correa says. "I am gross from practice this morning." She hasn't had time to bathe all day. Afterwards, she goes straight to bed. It is 9:30 p.m. These are the athletes who know that when they start playing their sport, there is no future beyond their college days and no dollar signs in sight. All the hard work and dedication that they are putting in will ultimately leave them with only memories and self-satisfaction. "This is what I've been working towards my whole life," Mahoney says. "Knowing that I only have four years to play my sport, it makes me play harder every time I get the chance." Writer Ashley Michaels was a middle blocker for the KU volleyball team from 2001 to 2004.

He's now reportedly dating Katie Holmes, and Premiere magazine just named him the third greatest movie star of all time. Whew! In his next film, Cruise is reuniting with his Minority Reportdirector Steven Spielberg for War of the Worlds, a big-budget adaptation of the 1898 H.G. Wells novel about intergalactic invasion. The film will be released on June 29. Cruise discussed War of the Worlds, the new Mission Impossible sequel and working with Stanley Kubrick in a recent telephone interview. What can audiences expect from War of the Worlds? entire universe. I think that is a little unreal. Aliens? I have no idea. This is the largest-scale picture I have ever been involved in. I tell you, I have been looking at these trailers and footage for War of the Worlds. I hope it just scares the heck out of everybody, you know? And I have to say this screenplay, written by David Koepp, was the best first draft of a screenplay that I have ever read in my career. Koepp came on board and everything just aligned. M There is no big scheme. It really just starts with an instinct. There have been a lot of great directors who have offered me things that I haven't interested in, so it really starts with the material. Is there any strategy behind doing a big movie like War of the Worlds as opposed to something smaller like Magnolia? I believe what I know empirically. I think that it's truly arrogant to think that we are the only living sentient beings in the Any worries about how the themes of invasion might be viewed overseas? This is your first movie with extraterrestrials. Do you believe in aliens? Image courtesy movies.yahoo.com Well, I believe what we should be doing is uniting and respecting each other's cultures instead of fighting each other over things like oil and territory, things that have gone on for century after century. Listen, I don't like war. I don't want war. I want a world without war. It has never solved any problems. Never, never, never. But I think with other people around the world, of course they are going to interpret the film however they want to. I know that communication is the only way of resolving problems. Wars never do that. You got to work with Stanley with Stanley Kubrick on his last film, Eyes Wide Shut. Spielberg directed A.I. Artificial Intelligence for Kubrick after he died in 1999. How would you compare Spielberg to Kubrick? Both of them absolutely understand the medium every aspect of it thoroughly. The process certainly was a longer process with Stanley, but that was his process. With Steven, the speed and accuracy of his creative ability is very, very exciting to me. Also, Steven was a much younger man than when I was working with Stanley. But just different men, different artists. I discussed A.I. with Stanley. I looked at the drawings, and I know when Steven actually made A.I. it was still in collaboration with Stanley. So the input on that movie was Kubrickian. Most definitely Kubrickian. What can you tell us about next year's Mission Impossible 3, which is being directed by television creator J.J. Abrams? I think it's the best story we've had out of the whole series. I think if you look at "Alias" or "Lost" or "Felicity," you really see how much J.J. Abrams likes character. So you take that and on *Ml:3you combine it with huge action sequences*. It is actually going to be, what I believe at this point, an epic action movie. Do you read your reviews? I am not someone who has ever really been concerned about critics. Growing up, I never really read reviews of movies. Still, even today, I won't go to a movie or not go to a movie based on what someone else has said about it. I just like what I like. I don't care what anybody else says. What's the funniest movie you've seen in the last year? Napoleon Dynamite. I saw that film three times.I thought it was just hilarious. So much fun. What movies are you looking forward to this summer? You have the Star Wars picture. I am looking forward to seeing Batman Begins. You have the Fantastic Four. I am a huge fan of those comics. I am going to be there the opening weekends for those movies. I will tell you a movie I am really excited about—I just happened to have produced it —is the Cameron Crowe picture, Elizabethtown, which is coming out this fall. I can't wait to see Kingdom of Heaven, too, (Orlando) Bloom's movie with Ridley Scott). I saw a trailer of that and I was like, "Whoa!" It looks like *Gladiator*. Oh, man. I love stuff like that!

Here's a look at the summer's most anticipated releases. May 6 Images courtesy movies.yahoo.com images.courtesy movies.yahoo.com **Kingdom of Heaven:** Ridley Scott (Gladiator) directs another historical epic as Orlando Bloom's Balian journeysto the Holy Land only to be caught up in the religious turmoil of the Crusades. Expect a wide-screen visual feast reminiscent of the opening battle sequence of Gladiator. Liam Neeson plays Godfrey of Ibelin, while Edward Norton hides behind a mask of solid gold as the leprous King Baldwin IV. The lovely Eva Green (The Dreamers) co-stars. May 19 **Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith:** After two disappointing prequels, Anakin finally becomes Darth Vader in George Lucas' final installment of the beloved space saga. For the circle to be complete, this episode needs to depict the birth of twins Luke and Leia, a climactic battle between anakin (Hayden Christensen) and Obi-Wan (Ewan MacGregor) and the deaths of legions upon legions of Jedi. The previews are creating a buzz. --- June15 Batman Begins: Acclaimed director Christopher Nolan (Memento) explores the early years of the Caped Crusader. Christian Bale (American Psycho) dons the bat-suit, while Cillian Murphy (28 Days Later) plays arch-villain Scarecrow. Expect a more brooding Batman than the Joel Schumacher fiascos (Batman Forever, Batman and Robin). The movie will also show Batman's formative years in more detail than Tim Burton's original. Liam Neeson co-stars — this guy is busy this summer — he also has a cameo in Star Wars: Episode III. Julv15 PETER KIRKSON Charlie and the Chocolate Factory: Johnny Depp reunites with frequent collaborator Tim Burton (Edward Scissorhands, Sleepy Hollow) for a wacky adaptation of the Roald Dahl novel. Depp plays the funny/creepy candy-man who sends out five Golden Tickets in five Wonka Bars. Of all the remakes this summer, this is the only one preceded by a great movie. Certainly it can't be as bad as Burton's bizarre remake of Planet of the Apes. Finding Neverland's Freddie Highmore plays the title character. Aug.12 Everything Is Illuminated: Elijah Wood stars in an adaptation of Jonathan Safran Foer's critically lauded 2002 novel. Wood plays an American who travels to the Ukraine with his canine companion to find a woman who may have saved his grandfather from the Nazi death camps. No other movie this summer has better material to work with. And Wood is on a roll after The Lord of the Rings, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and Sin City. Everything is illuminated is the directoral debut of the actor Liev Schreiber (The Manchurian Candidate).

I playing bad guys who make us laugh, from the eternally imitable psycho-killer Karl Childers in *Sling Blade* to the worst Santa Claus in history in *The Bad Santa*. He's also weathered the storm of celebrity tabloids, which had him wearing an amulet filled with Angelina Jolie's blood (true) and living I think he would say, "I reckon we did a pretty good job." In this exclusive interview, Thornton discusses his role in Richard Linklater's Bad News Bears. Thornton plays Morris Buttermaker, a hard drinking, womanizing ex-baseball player who becomes the coach of a team of foul-mouthed Little Leaguers. The film is a remake of the 1976 hit starring Walter Matthau, and will be released on July 22. Image courtesy movies.yahoo.com off a strict diet of orange food (false). And he lived out the fantasies of every man in America by bedding Halle Berry in Monster's Ball, which has got to be the most frequently viewed non-pornographic DVD of all time. What's the difference between the new Bad News Bears and the original with Walter Matthau? It's still pretty racy. I think the only difference is that now kids see so many things and hear so many things that maybe it will not be quite as shocking to them. I think kids who watch South Park and things like that, it is sort of their sense of humor now. What was it like working with a cast of kids? I always have fun with kids. I'm a father myself. My boys are 10 and 11. We try to keep my kids out of the lime-light. The other night we were at some friend's house and the movie we were gonna watch was Paparazzi. They said, "Dad, watch this. You can't let that happen!" What's the message of Bad News-Bears? It's not a movie that's gonna change the world or anything. But the overall message is just like the original: Maybe you're not the fastest kid on the block and maybe your life is not so great, but if you just give it a little extra effort and believe in yourself then maybe you'll find out you're better than you think you are. Also, it addresses the age-old problem of Americans wanting to win at all costs, that competition is everything. It's about how maybe you shouldn't push your kids so hard. You should let them be who they want to be. Is it cool when a movie like Bad Santa becomes popular with college kids? It is actually kind of cool. I probably think more like a college audience than I do my own age group. My sense of humor is probably more like an 18- or 19-year-old than it is anything else. It is one of my favorite audiences, college audiences. Plus, I was one of "the greatest college dropouts in history. Are there similarities between the characters you play in Bad Santa and Bad News Bears? Well, if you look at it, Morris Buttermaker is a guy who drinks and likes women. The guy in Bad Santa was a guy who drinks and likes women. So yes, they are similar characters. But show me a guy who does not like to drink and likes women and I will kiss your ass. All of your characters seem to share some of the same eccentricities. Do you look for certain character traits in each role? Generally, I choose roles where on the surface the character is maybe not as smart as everybody else, or it seems like something is wrong with him. But in the end, you find out they know a lot more than people think they do. Those kinds of characters have always fascinated me, sort of the downtrodden or put-upon characters who end up being the conscience of the story. BILLY I'm a big fan of the Coen brothers' The Man Who Wasn't There. Do you plan to work with them again? I love writing and directing, but I love acting probably more. I don't like the business of directing. The actual shooting is great. But dealing with the studio, having to cut out the last scene in the movie that made it make sense in the first place — it can take a year to three years out of your life. I was really spoiled by Sling Blade. I hope to get that kind of independence again. Which do you like more, acting or directing? Out of every movie I've done, that is one of my very favorite movies. They're my favorite filmmakers hands down. We are discussing something else. What we'd like to do is, they'd like to do Tarzan with me. We've been talking about this for about a decade. As a fellow bachelor, I want to ask you, how do you get all these world-class beautiful women? How do I say this politely? Do you see yourself as part of the Hollywood community or outside it? Definitely more outside it. I live in California, but I don't go anywhere. I couldn't tell you the names of any clubs to go to in L.A. I might as well live in Topeka, Kansas. On the record, off the record - I just want to know. I have always liked them for one thing. I think women sort of feel that. I think they just kind of know when you really appreciate that whole species. Also, I learned how to use my sexual apparatus at a very early age. For this Hollywood outsider, character is everything By Stephen Shupe, Jayplay senior writer 20 Jayplay 05.05.05 Movies Excellent: National Lampoon's Animal House Good: Old School Okay: Revenge of the Nerds Bad: PCU No stars: National Lampoon's Dorm Daze Darkness (1/2 Stars) R, 1 hour 50 minutes, DVD Rental Two things seem to have happened to horror films since The Sixth Sense. Now they try to have a groundbreaking twist, and they all seem to involve young children. Although the genre often can be good with a confusing plot and silly characters (which Darkness can boast), this film takes it too seriously and comes out worse than most. Reggie and her family move into a spooky old house in Spain, and into a spooky old house. They don't have a problem, until a few weeks later when there is about to be a solar eclipse. Reggie's little brother suddenly becomes afraid of the dark, her father is diagnosed with a rare illness and her mother won't listen to her. Something must be wrong, and when looking into the history of the house, Reggie discovers it has a strange and uneventful past: no one has lived there since the last eclipse. Finally she discovers that not only is the house cursed (surprise, surprise), but that her grandfather is behind it. The problem with the film is that it feels like there are a series of scary sequences that just don't fit together. Some moments are frightening and creepy, and some nice themes pop up, but then the film moves on, leaving questions dangling. Although Anna Paquin, Lena Olin and the rest of the cast for that matter, provide good performances, their characters' actions are often unmotivated, leaving you wonder why anyone would do what they do. That was something I asked too often in this film: Why? Even the whole reason for the involvement of the grandfather (and therefore the reason for the events that take place) is unclear. The film leaves the audience lurking in the darkness. It has some good ideas that could have made this a nice addition to a horror collection, but eventually turns out being yet another run-of-the-mill thriller that tries too hard to be clever. The DVD features the uncut version of the film, bonus footage, behind-the-scenes extras, and it may be worth a rent if you want a good laugh with a group of friends.

WWW.KU.EDU/~YEARBOOK • YEARBOOK@KU.EDU TANTAN ASIA EXTREME NTSC 52I VERSION FOR PRODUCTION SCA PLAYES BATTLE ROYALE 18 "Love@@@" "Soulbinding Hummers" "What will the gold use these?" Battle Royale Movie (★★★) DVD (★★) NR,114 minutes Quentin Tarantino's *Kill Bill* series was in large part an homage to a number of cult films that had influenced the director's career. Subsequently, these movies were the beneficiaries of renewed interest from the United States, perhaps none more so than Kini Fukasaki's *Battle Royale*. This Japanese film was initially released in 2000, but it was unavailable in the United States until recently. The movie takes place in the future of Japan, where student riots have led to the passage of the BR law. As a result of this law, 42 seventh-graders are sent to a remote island. There they are told that only one may leave, and only after the other 41 have died. If there is more than one student alive after three days, every student will be killed. The plot is really quite incidental to the purpose of the film, which is to relish in the hellacious violence that permeates nearly every frame. Nothing like seeing a child having his head blown off. The violence seems to be indicative of the larger influence that Japanese anime has had on this film. Anime is marked by a unique, post-modern disconnect with traditional form and substance, and so is Battle Royale. All the visual markers of anime are present: schoolgirl outfits, spurting blood, wildly coiffed hair. Besides the gleeful violence and the anime tropes, the film is also interesting because of its stars. While most of the characters are anonymous — especially in their deaths — viewers may recognize Chiaki Kuriyama, the mace-wielding assassin in Kill Bill Vol. 1. Also present in the film is Takeshi Kitano, who plays the captain in charge of this sadistic game. An adult video viewer would know Kitano as one of the members of Spike TV's Most Extreme Elimination Challenge (MXC), but he is actually an accomplished Japanese actor, director and author. It's easy to see why Tarantino admires Battle Royale so much. The film's hilarious and shocking administration of violence makes it a companion to works such as Pulp Fiction and Reservoir Dogs. Its vision of the future is Lord of the Flies filtered through the eyes of an ultra-violent Japanese cartoon. —Will Lamborn A LISTEN 1 three 6 mafia ADVISORY EXPLICIT CONTENT CHOOSE II THE RESULTS CDV Three 6 Mafia Choices II: The Setup The soundtrack is quite different from Three 6 Mafia's prior works. The beats are much simpler than those of its past albums. This at first seems a little strange In 2001, Three 6 Mafia released its debut movie, Choices, and the hit soundtrack of the same name. Like the movie the soundtrack featured DJ Paul, Juicy J, Project Pat and other artists of the Hypnotize Camp Posse. Four years later, following a script rewrite, Pat, Paul and Juice are back with Choices II: The Setup and soundtrack. to those who are used to the former beats, which were much more up-tempo, focusing a lot on a sound being repeated throughout the track. But the newer beats offer the listener something much more mature. With a toned down backdrop, it gives the lyrics more opportunity to show through. The tracks throughout this CD have more flow, more content and rely much less on a hook, unlike many of their prior works. This could be partly because the numerous guest artists which include Mr. Big, The Youngbloodz, Trillville D-Rock, and Lil' Flip, which last collaborated with the Mafia on their hit, "Ridin' Spinners." Without Pat on the CD and a limited, if any, role of La' Chat, the CD has a different sound vocally, but different in this case does not mean bad. This CD represents a turning point in Three 6 Mafia's sound and should be invested in. Not to mention it comes in a dual disc set with the movie, one sequel that is not worse than the first.

BEN FOLDS SONGS FOR SILVERMAN Ben Folds Songs for Silverman Where our parents had Etton John, Liberaci, and, to a lesser extent, Billy Joel, our generation has Ben Folds. His emergence and bulk of success were in the later half of the '90s with songs such as "Underground" and "Brick" with his piano, bass and drums trio Ben Folds Five. Now the band has broken up and he's on his second solo album, Songs for Silverman. Folds hasn't lost his touch either; he still noodles out beautiful and intricate to loud and irreverent piano music which couples with memorable melodies and then is deliciously soiled with his signature, slightly off and at times crass, brand of songwriting. This formula has elevated him to the status of "geek-rock god" and all without ever touching a guitar. Songs for Silverman, however, carries more on more in a tone of solemn poignancy while still going off on some pretty rock'n'琴 solos and creative and original lyrical styles. His diverse topics go from requiems ("Late"), social commentaries ("Jesusland"), and even a song for his daughter ("Gracie"). This album is a definite must for newcomers and fans alike who may be getting a little tired of hearing song after song of repetitive power chords which are only occasionally peppers with rather lackluster piano riffs.

While not the most amazing single-player game around, UC featured some of the best looking and best playing online action available on the Xbox. Unreal Championship 2 builds on the first Xbox title, using the same fast-paced first-person gameplay and adding in all new features such as a melee combat system and a whole slew of new acrobatic movement abilities. The game's most notable addition is its surprisingly deep melee combat. Employing a third-person perspective, the game gives each character a unique weapon and set of moves. Mastering this system is the key to success in UC2, as guns and ammunition tend to be scarcer than in other Unreal titles. Graphically, Unreal Championship 2 is still up there with the best of the system, using detailed character models and frame rates that remain lightning fast even when the action is at its most intense. Unfortunately, the game has its drawbacks. The single-player modes are fairly minimal, with a lackluster storyline and a fairly repetitive quick game option. Additionally, the learning curve can be fairly steep, with two completely different styles of gameplay to figure out. Those that stick with it though will find one of the Xbox's most unique action games around. Successfully combining first-person shooters and fighting games into one adrenaline-driven title, UC2 should appeal to fans of either genre. Grade: B —Andrew Campbell Courtroom scene at a hearing.

When I look at the cover, it kind of reminds me of Turner and Hooch much darker and with more gun battles. The game industry as well as movies seem to be digging the whole prequel thing, so this game is no different. Slate returns only to go back into his past and hit the streets of Grant City with his best friend...and crime's worst nightmare. The voiceovers could use a little work. It's believable to hear Jack speak, but it gets annoying when enemies start to talk smack to you. I can only take being called "boy" so many times, among other names. Since the release of the Matrix, bullet time has been something that people apparently want to see more and more. In Dead to Rights 2, it's back once again. The use of this ability is so you can get an advantage when firing at your opponents. It can save your life. I remember diving off the top of a building and taking down at least five people before they could even get one shot off. The use of slow motion diving is a great way to turn a bad situation in your favor. No matter how many weapons Jack can use, there's always a great weapon at your disposal: your partner, Shadow. Shadow is a great way to get you out of messy situations. I found myself pinned down by at least five people and can command Shadow to take them all down. Shadow attacks are based on how filled your adrenaline gauge is, so make sure you keep it pretty full. A full one can instantly kill a guy. Shadow can also do handy tricks such as retrieve weapons for you. Other main staples in the game are disarms and human shield maneuvers Jack can use. The disarms are always good eye candy. The way Jack takes another person's gun and uses it to kill them looks so fluid in motion. The human shield would be a good option to use, if only it worked. I took several shields, yet I still lose life quickly. With the number of enemies in an area, you have to kill fast without getting blasted yourself while you're scurrying around looking for extra health. Dead to Rights 2 is a fun action game. If you like those tough, "don't take guff from no one" cop movies, then I would recommend you rent this game.

Sure, I've had good friends, eat friends even, but never a best friend until now. didn't love it, but she didn't get mad at me either. She shook her head and we moved on. Every time I go home with a new tattoo she lifts up the back of her shirt, grins and says, "I'm going to get a lower back tattoo, right here." I know she never will, but I always encourage her. She was always the "cool mom." In elementary school every one wanted to come to me good taste, especially when she's the same size as you. At the mall, she always knew when to walk away (such as when there were cute boys in the vicinity) and when to joke around. It might be her strange sense of humor, but I never had with YOU ARE MY SUNSHINE ste, espe- en she's the as you.

That last Sunday The day after Christmas 2003 my parents moved to Allentown, Pa. It was the worst present anyone could have asked for. Seriously, it's like 1,200 miles from here. Before they left, we spent Christmas day in a hotel room and ate Christmas dinner at the Great Wolf Lodge because our cute gray house with the twisty staircase in Kansas City, Kan., had already been sold. After they left, my mom would call me once a week, just to check in. We'd talk about normal mother-daughter stuff such as my job and school, Steadily, our conversations got longer. Then we started talking more often, we'd trade off calling each other a few days a week. Now I'm to the point where I talk to her every day, without fail. We write letters and send each other packages filled with candy and odd little trinkets. I have always gotten along with my mom. I honestly cannot remember fighting with her about anything. I can't even remember her yelling at me. When I pierced my lip and then my septum, she didn't love it, but she didn't get mad at me either. She shook her head and we moved on. Every time I go home with a new tattoo she lifts up the back of her shirt, grins and says, "I'm going to get a lower back tattoo, right here." I know she never will, but I always encourage her. She was always the "cool mom." In elementary school everyone wanted to come to my house because they knew my mom would let us eat junk food and stay up late. If we asked, she'd even leave her bedroom door open after we watched scary movies. When my mom would pick me up from middle school, all of the boys would say, "Your sister is so hot," and then I would explain that I didn't have a sister. Back then, it bothered me. But now when someone says my sister is hot, I just agree. Because she is. She's a youthful 42, and we do seem more like sisters than mother and daughter. When I came to the University of Kansas for the first time, everyone at orientation kept handing her things and asking her about her major. Finally, she pushed me in front and said, "My daughter will be going to school here, not me." When we'd go to the mall, my mom hung out with my friends and me, and we didn't mind. She even looked like one of us: petite, trendy and always giggling. Sometimes before I went out with my friends, my mom would let me play dress-up in her closet. It's fun having a mom with when there were cute boys in the vicinity) and when to joke around. It might be her strange sense of humor, but I never tire of her. You'd think that after 21 years of boob jokes, you'd become immune, but I still laugh at every one. The one about the awesomeness of the WonderBra gets me every time. It turns your chest into a deadly weapon. (Just don't hug anyone in that thing, you'll smother them.) I even laugh when she pretends to make my dog talk. She picks him up and holds him in her lap hiding her face in his fur. She moves his front paws about like he's in a really deep conversation, gesturing to get his point across. She says if he had a voice he'd sound like Mickey Mouse, and then she walks around, pretending she's the dog saying, "Oh boy!" in her best cartoon voice. This past Christmas I stayed in Allentown for almost a month. We went to the King of Prussia Mall, Philadelphia, and we ate New York-style pizza in a hole in the wall with real Italian gangsters and an owner named Sal. Every morning we'd run to the coffee shop and have grande caramel lattes with soy milk and no whipped cream. It was the best time I've That last Sunday, on my way to the air- port, it hit me. I had to go back to Kansas. It was then that I realized how much I missed my mom, not because she was my mom, but because she was my friend. On the plane I fought back my tears. I finally made it home and called her to plan my next visit. My friends and family say I am too attached to my mom and that I need to grow up. I say I like spending all my spare time with my favorite person. I don't even see her as my mother anymore. To me, she's a best friend who just happens to be named "Mom." I don't know why it took me so long to figure out that I'd always had a best friend, but they do say you find love when you least expect it. She's been with me my whole life, so I guess this friendship gives new meaning to BFF. Thanks, Mom.

Pierzynski hit a two-run homer and the Chicago White Sox defeated the Kansas City Royals 4-2 last night for their fourth straight victory. Nam Y. Huh/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Kansas City Royals' David DeJesus scores, sliding past Chicago White Sox catcher A.J. Pierzynski after Royals' Mike Sweeney's double in the third inning at U.S. Cellular Field last night in Chicago. While Chicago improved the best record in the major leagues to 20-7, the last-place Royals lost for the 14th time in 17 games and dropped to 7-20 despite outhitting the White Sox 9-6. Jermaine Dye's RBI single broke a 1-1 tie in the fourth, and Pierzynski followed with his second homer of the season. Aaron Rowand started the rally with a two-out bloop single and scored on Dye's hit. Freddy Garcia (3-1) gave up two runs and eight hits in 6 1/3 innings and Dustin Hermanson, Chicago's fifth pitcher, got five straight outs for his fourth save. Runelvys Hernandez (1-4) lost his fourth straight decision, giving up four runs and six hits in 7 1/3 innings. All but one of batters who reached on the first five hits Hernandez allowed scored. Garcia was in and out of jams all game and his bullpen inherited one in the seventh. Garcia was pulled with one out and two men on. After a passed ball advanced the runners to second and third, and Neal Cotts loaded the bases with a walk to Ruben Gotay. Cliff Polite relieved and gave up Mike Sweeney's sacrifice fly to center, with Mark Teahen sliding to just beat the throw from Rowand on a close play. Polite then struck out Ken Harvey to end the inning. the third on Swe eney's two-out double. Shortstop Juan Uribe's relay throw to Pierzynski at the plate was in tirne to catch David Dejesus, but the ball sailed a little wide and Pierzynski couldn't hold on.

They're 10 games over the break-even mark and looking good. looking good. Scott Rolen returned from a sore back and hit a two-run homer Wednesday night, sparking the Cardinals to a 7-3 victory and three-game sweep of the Cincinnati Reds. Cincinnati Mark Mulder's seven shutout innings helped St. Louis improve the NL's best record to 18-8, the Cardinals' best start since 1948. Getting 10 games over .500 was the first of manager Tony La Russa's many goals for the defending NL champions. It didn't take them long. If it didn't take them long, "It's a step." La Russa said. "If that's the only step we take this year, it will have been a disappointing season. But that's how you get there, step by step." St. Louis got swept by Boston in the World Series last season, but retooled its lineup and replenished a pitching staff that's been one of the majors' best so far. Mulder (4-1), acquired from Oakland in December, kept it going against a struggling line-up. The left-hander allowed only three singles — two of them infield hits — over seven innings. He retired his last 15 batters and didn't allow a runner past first base. SALTY IGUANA 6TH & WAKARUSA 785-312-8100 Continue the Party on Friday! CINCO ON THE 6TH FRI.

The price the hospital offered for the property was not disclosed. An opportunity to purchase the facility was made available to both the University and the hospital, but it did not fulfill the needs of the University. Dennis McCullough, director of public and government relations, said. Growth has been an issue at the hospital since it became financially independent from the University in 1998,he said. The Johnson County appraiser's office's appraisal value for the property in 2005 is about $7.5 million, up $5.7 million from the previous year's assessment. Located one and a half miles from the hospital's campus at 39th Street and Rainbow Boulevard in Kansas City, Kan., the space will provide space for growing programs while still fulfilling a commitment for health care to the Kansas City area. The hospital had been searching for cost-effective space, and was glad to close the deal with Sprint, McCullough said. Finance and information management are some of the back office departments that will move to the facility, McCullough said. Several outpatient services will also move to the facility, but it is unclear which ones at this time. Ty Beaver Contract impact EMPLOYMENT Letter opens GTA renewal negotiations BY TY BEAVER tbeaver@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER To the beat of plastic bucket drums, the graduate teaching assistant union, or GTAC, held posters and cheered in front of Strong Hall as it ceremoniously opened negotiations for GTA contracts at the University of Kansas yesterday. Every three years the contracts for GTAs open up for changes and amendments. The current contracts expire on Oct.1. A group of about 30 students rallied in front of Strong Hall before heading to the provost's office to deliver a petition with more than 150 signatures and a letter listing requests for negotiations. Delivery of the letter to the provost's office was a courtesy, Provost David Shulenburger said. To officially open negotiations, the GTAC must deliver a letter and petition to Human Resources. A group of graduate students delivered the letter and petition to Faucher after the union left the Provost's office, Brian Azcona, New Orleans, La., graduate student and GTAC co-president, said. Contract negotiations ended in success for the union three years ago, with increases in salaries and the University advocating better health insurance for GTAs to the state. Since then, new policies have appeared that limit that success. Azcona said. "There are ways outside of the contract for them to interpret it." he said. One of those policies was the 10-semester limitation on GTAs. A student may serve as GTA for only 10 semesters and must then convert to the status of lecturer to continue working for the University. Lecturers do not receive the same benefits of a GTA he said, and it takes some students seven to eight years to finish all of their graduate studies, Arizona said. The policy was a way to get back at the union for concessions they made three years ago, he said. The policy was also causing a reduction in the number of GTAs at the University, he said. Shulenburger acknowledged the policy, but said that GTAs had not decreased at the University. In 2000, there were 921 GTAs, he said. Currently, there are 935. The GTAC also wants to address the grievance procedure against the University for GTAS. Currently, the University does not have to acknowledge and enforce rulings made through the procedure. Azcona said. "It's a GTA's one way to enforce their contract and it doesn't have any teeth to它," he said. There have been few grievances in the last few years, Shulenburger said, but that concern and others would be addressed during the negotiations. Both parties hope that negotiations go quickly. At least one meeting between students and the University may occur before the end of the semester, Shulenburger said. No negotiations will occur during the summer because of the absence of many GTAs. They will meet again at the beginning of the Fall 2005 semester, he said. ARTS Edited by Austin Caster Artist to display paper cuts Student uses scraps for TV-inspired pieces IF YOU GO BY NEL MULKA nmulka@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER TOTEMS CARVING T. J. Tangpuz is living proof that television influences children. - What: Paper. Reloaded, featuring the work of T.J. Tangpuz. While growing up Tangpuz loved "Transformers" and "The Muppet Show." "I loved 'Transformers.'" Tangpuz, Kansas City, Mo., continuing education student, said. "It's probably what got me into making things. I made a lot of my toys when I was a kid." He loved them so much he started to make toys out of paper because his parents couldn't afford to buy them. When: Tomorrow, 6 to 10 p.m. Where: Olive Gallery & Art Supply, 15 E. Eighth St. "He primarily uses scrap paper," "John Hachmeister, associate professor of sculpture, said, "And creates value from it." Source: The Olive Gallery & Art Supply Photos by Brian Lewis/KANSAN It turned out to be a creative blessing that's getting him noticed. This weekend Tangpuz will have his second non-academic showing this weekend at the Olive Gallery and Art Supply, 15 E. Eighth St. "That's kind of what sparked it all," Tangpuz said. "I think when you're that young and forced into that kind of a situation it forces you to be a little bit more creative." T.J. Tangpuz displays the moveable eyes and mouth of his sculpture. It will be on display at the Olive this weekend with other pieces of Tangpuz's work. Tangpuz has a degree in sculpture and is studying for a degree in metals. The showing, entitled "Paper Reloaded," will feature about eight sculptures by Tangpuz, mostly made of paper. Standing at about 5 feet tall, the brown paper head has big eyes and a simplified look similar to one of Jim Henson's creations. The eyes and mouth can open and close by manipulating levers behind the head. One of the works, "Head Studies," is where the "Transformers" and the "Muppets" influences collide. Another work expected to be displayed is a black horse head with a mane made from shredded paper that falls almost naturally onto the neck. Another work, called "Accordion ring" can be worn on the person's hand and has a miniature accordion that moves with the fingers. "Mv treehouse" Tangpuz also made his studio from scraps. Below the sculpture room in the Art and Design building there is group of studios called the Sub Base, which resembles "The Pit" from the 1992 film "PCU," complete with old couches and walls covered in graffiti, but sans the booze and the metal band. In Tangpuz's section he works in what he calls his treehouse - a double-decker loft space made up of throw-away materials. "The they were remodeling the woodshop upstairs, so they had these empty cabinets, and they were throwing them away and I was like 'No way,' he said. "The nice thing about being a sculptor is that we're highly resourceful. Some people see Painted all-blue, a seven-step spiral staircase leads up the upper level where Tangpuz stores some of his projects. Below the loft area is his workshop. T. J.

"I think that it's great that he's utilizing his space," Warren said. "I have tendency to spread out." The spiral staircase also becomes a landmark. Warren said. "When people look for me I tell them to find the studio with the spiral staircase," she said. job and working in his studio, Tangpuz estimates he spends 50 hours a week in the Art and Design building. "He has a genuine dedication to his art," Hachmeister said. "That dedication is infectious and students identify that and try do it." His work ethic has spread to Warren. When he sticks around, she wants to as well because he is so fun to work with, she said. Between classes, having a student An infection Tangpuz remembers his parent's work ethic, which is the inspiration for long hours in the Sub Base.

Residents of Stephenson, 1404 Alumni Place, knew they had to interview with Department of Student Housing officials to retain their spot in the hall. Few expected that they would be relocated to another scholarship hall or a residence hall To most of the 55 students who must move out next fall, the change came as a surprise. Typically, 35 students return to a scholarship hall every year, said Ken Stoner, director of student housing. "I'm just amazed," said Grant Wagner, who was kicked out of Stephenson. "I'm not so much angry, but amazed they kicked innocent people out like that. It's just really, really frustrating." No scholarship hall has ever been called to the student housing office for individual interviews, Stoner said. Stephenson residents trashed the facility and demeaned others in the hall, Stoner said in an earlier interview. Wagner, Bennington freshman, was written up for throwing a water balloon at a car earlier semester Inappropriate behavior instigated the mandatory interviews. The balloon went through the open window and exploded on the driver's lap. The driver was Stephenson's scholarship hall director, Richard Friesner, Wagner said. And Wagner was responsible for throwing a water balloon earlier this semester. "It's our fault." he said. "It's dirty as hell." Conditions the inside of the hall also was cause for complaint. Stephenson cannot have guests over to the hall because their kitchen failed student housing inspections, Wagner said. All residents should not be held accountable because not all of them took part in the incidents, Scotty Wheeler, Singapore junior, said. Wagner said student housing removed the wrong people from the hall. "They're kicking the innocent out along with the guilty," he said. the gangy, the scared Wheeler was guaranteed a spot in the residence halls, but said he was not interested in living there next fall. "Stephenson has always been about the people in the hall and so many people are getting kicked out," Wheeler said. "If those people aren't returning, I see no point in returning."

"We're think we'll see a lot of people," said Teri Williams, store manager at Arizona Trading Co., 734 Massachusetts St. "It sounds like it's going to be good for everybody in downtown." Downtown businesses are expecting a boost in customers during the competition from May 13-15. because you're closing the main thoroughfares to downtown," Hughes said. "It might have a slightly negative effect on business for that day." About 450 participants and 11,000 spectators should visit Lawrence for the event, said Bob Sanner, director of the Lawrence Convention and Visitors Bureau. Sanner said he expected between $300,000 to $350,000 of direct spending in Lawrence because of the event. The competition begins with a one mile loop course through downtown Lawrence May 13. Dan Hughes, owner of Sunflower Outdoor and Bike Shop, 802 Massachusetts St., But two remaining days of the competition would make up for any inconveniences on Friday because those events are not held downtown, he said. People who want to watch the event will have to find somewhere outside of downtown to park their cars. Massachusetts and Vermont streets will be closed between 7th and 10th streets from 3 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Friday. Part of New Hampshire Street will also be closed as part of the race course. The city will also close four parking lots in the downtown area during the race. Sarah Schmidt, Marysville junior, said she hadn't heard about the event. But closed streets and limited parking wouldn't keep her out of downtown, she said. To alleviate the parking constraints, the city is offering free rides on the city buses on Friday and Saturday. People who have parked their vehicles legally in the areas surrounding the race course will not have to pay the meter. Sanner said. The street closings and parking restrictions could deter some customers from downtown, Hughes said. "We're encouraging people to leave their vehicles at home and allow the T to get them downtown," Sanner said. "Downtown Lawrence hosts a lot of events, but cycling is different "It probably wouldn't deter me from going down to Mass because it's difficult to find parking down there anyway," Schmidt said. "Now that I know about it, I'll probably go down there and check it out." A 28.2 mile road race will be held at 9 a.m. Saturday, May 14 at Perry Lake.

Parents arrested in Precious Doe case KANSAS CITY, Mo. — For four years, she was known only as Precious Doe, a little girl whose headless body was found along a road. Yesterday police gave the girl a name, arrested her mother and stepfather on murder charges and pronounced the sad mystery solved. Michelle M. Johnson, 30, of Muskogee, Okla., and her husband, Harrell Johnson, 25, were charged with endangering the welfare of a child and second-degree felony murder of Michelle Johnson's daughter, long known only as Precious Doe. The girl was identified as Erica Michelle Marie Green, just shy of 4 years old when she was found. "We have closure," Police Chief James Corwin said. "The little girl that we've known for four years as Precious Doe has a name." Police said Michelle Johnson has been cooperative in their investigation; she has indicated her husband, Erica's stepfather, actually carried out the killing. According to a probable cause statement filed in Circuit Court, Johnson said her husband kicked Erica in the head, then they left her on the floor for two days. Johnson and her husband did not seek medical treatment for the girl, she said, because both had outstanding warrants for their arrest.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A The traditional cost of living at the scholarship halls with a meal plan next year will be $3,684, compared to $5,502 at the residence halls. All residents were interviewed from the week of March 28 to April 25 and assigned a living arrangement for next fall. If a resident was not satisfied with his assignment, he may reschedule another interview with housing for further consideration. These interviews must be scheduled by May 9, Stoner said. about five students were relocated to another scholarship hall. An unknown number of residents are moving off campus, and residents still have time to turn down their housing contracts. Every resident who filled out an Intent-To-Return card received a housing contract somewhere on campus. About 16 residents will return to Stephenson next semester. Another 16 were guaranteed residence hall contracts and But not all Stephenson residents will return to student housing, even if they get relocated. Robert Murphy, Wichita junior, was relocated to Battenfeld Scholarship Hall next year. He said he did not fill out the hall's contract because of the new environment it would present. Murphy said he found a condo with three other people from Stephenson for next fall. The reason for relocating residents to other scholarship halls and the residence halls was to set a higher standard, Stoner said. "We've got good men living down there, but we're just saying we feel like we can expect more and should expect more of our students in the scholarship hall community."

Tangpuz's given name is Juniper — which he describes as "the drawer" — and T.J. is the name he gave himself, which he describes as "the builder." "I just like the idea of them having two identities when they change their shapes," he said. "I guess I've become one, too, because I have this dual thing." "Starting out, I was a shy kid and was just tough for me to interact," he said. "So in order for me to do that I had to create a different kind of persona to help get past that shyness and it just became a different kind of identity." "Whenever he draws anything he draws himself," Warren said. "He draws himself as a squirrel. It kind of has his haircut." Tangpuz emerged in high school to give a fresh start after personal troubles, he said. This project inspired Tangpuz to move from illustration to sculpture. The two sides of his persona come together in a pop-up book he made for his illustration class entitled "Mad Squirrel and the Senseless Caper." Monkey business Now, Tangpuz is trying to move into other materials such as metals and iron casting, but is always trying to make different materials have the aesthetics of paper.

VINCE MYERS vmyers@kansan.com But I have one key observation for everyone to ponder: Pope Benedict XVI is the Catholic pope I bring this up not because it isn't obvious but because it seems that no one realizes what this actually means. We have some strange idea that the pope is a politician in a secular nation and that he ought to be upholding the ideals of the American left "The pope is opposed to gay marriage and abortion! He's trying to start a theocracy! He takes his stances from the Bible! He's highly religious! He didn't even list 'secularism' as one of his top priorities!" Indeed, as the Catholic pope, Pope Benedict's positions and priorities are formulated with high regard to the policy of the Catholic Church. The Catholic Church opposes abortion, and I highly doubt that it will ever change that status. There is None of the candidates would have sported green hair, worn a dog collar and railed against The Man. None would have lobbied America to legalize marijuana and called to congratulate NARAL Pro-Choice America on all its hard But none of the candidates would have greatly appealed to the average KU student. work. None would have purchased a "Kansas: As Bigoted as You Think" bumper sticker. None would have conducted Sunday mass wearing a Che Guevara T-shirt. Again, let me point out: Pope Benedict is the Catholic The point is that there was not a single papal candidate who would have thrilled the American left. Sure, election of an African or Latin American pope would have been a great step in diversity. And to be fair, most of the other candidates weren't as conservative as Ratzinger. no biblical justification for abortion. The church will also probably never accept gay marriage. One day it may allow priests to marry, but that day isn't coming. If liberals think the pope should uphold secularism, that's because they're confused; it's not because the pope is wrong. As National Review's Jonah Goldberg pointed out, "Excepting, maybe, the issue of distributing condoms in Africa, it's hard to think of a hot-button social issue that divides the church's leadership a fraction as much as American editorial pages seem to suggest." The point is that there was not a single papal candidate who would have thrilled the American left. Sure, the election of an African or Latin American pope would have been a great step in diversity. And to be fair, most of the other candidates weren't as conservative as Ratzinger. Pope Benedict's selection, though apparently controversial in Lawrence and other liberal areas of the country and the world, was not that controversial to the people who elected him. The College of Cardinals took only two days and four votes to select him. He was the dean of the College of Cardinals before becoming pope and was very close to Pope John Paul II. In reality, his selection made sense. I understand that a lot of the disappointment is political. If Catholics could only give up on this social conservatism jazz, they might be more inclined to vote Democrat. Then, Democrats might make it back into Washington. Marvelous as that fantasy may be, it's ridiculous. For liberals to be disappointed that the College of Cardinals didn't pick a Ted Kennedy admirer for pope is no different from me being disappointed that they didn't pick me — a Protestant, American college kid — for pope. Sure, it would have been great, but it just wouldn't have made any sense. Fantasize all you want,but live in the real world. Myers is an Olathe freshman in political science. LETTER TO THE EDITOR Give your mom love on Mother's Day, but don't buy her a Wal-Mart gift Mother's Day is an annual occasion to reflect and celebrate your mommy. Some students express thoughtfulness with roses, chocolates or jewelry. When retailers promote these items, budget constrained individuals turn to a renowned valued-laced mecca — Wal-Mart. Low prices and a lovable yellow smiley attract large revenue. So much that our local Lawrence Wal-Mart is expanding to "better provide" for our community. Is this claim even valid? Justin Douglas, customer service manager, was naive when he said "I think [store expansion] will open up a lot more jobs for students." What he failed to mention was that women need not apply. My basis for this allegation is Wal-Mart's proven track record of discriminating against hard-working women. Of the 1.5 million employees, women make up 72 percent of the hourly workforce yet only represent 33 percent of the managers. Only 15 percent are store managers. 650,000 men and women do not get health care from Wal-Mart. These facts are unacceptable and damaging to our local and national economy. Wal-Mart can change. First, knock off this sexist crap and remove the glass ceiling. Second, pay your employees a living wage — based on a 2003 Drogin study, you can afford it by increasing all prices by one penny. I will admit that I am somewhat hypocritical as I occasionally pick up a few items at America's largest employer. As a broke college student the choice of where to shop is a financial one and not one based on business practices. Join me and take your money to another respectable retailer, at least for Mother's Day. Our mothers deserve fairness and respect — something Wal-Mart cannot comprehend but tries to market.

MAY 6.2005 WORLD Blair wins third term despite 'bloody nose' election results LONDON — Tony Blair won a historic third term as prime minister yesterday but his Labour Party suffered a sharply reduced parliamentary majority in apparent punishment for going to war in Iraq, according to projections based on exit polls. Such an outcome, if confirmed by the actual vote count, could set the stage for Blair to be replaced in midterm by a party rival such as Gordon Brown. As Treasury chief, Brown was widely credited for the strong economy that appears to have clinched Labour's victory, outweighing the bitterness many voters said they felt over Iraq. The BBC projected that Labour would have a 66-seat majority, down from its 161-seat lead over the opposition in the previous House of Commons. The station's projections had Labour taking 37 percent of the popular vote, the lowest winning share ever. The Conservatives, showing their first signs of life since losing power eight years ago, were estimated at 33 percent. Such a result matched the "bloody nose" — a humiliation but not a defeat — that opponents had hoped to give Blair.

MOVIE REVIEW Photo courtesy of TWENTIETH CENTURY FOX The massive Saracen army, a tremendous force of cavalry, holds its position outside the walls of Jerusalem in a scene from "Kingdom of Heaven." The epic opens this Friday at South Wind 12 Theatres, 3433 Iowa St. SCHOLASTIC WARS Photo by David Appleby/ TWENTIETH CENTURY FOX Epic a heavenly piece of history Liam Neeson stars as Godfrey of ibelin. (1) Kingdom of Heaven Photo by David Appleby/TWENTIETH CENTURY FOX Sibylla (Eva Green) and Balian (Orlando Bloom) share a passionate moment. ★★★ (out of four) ★★★ (out of four) Direktor: Didley Scott Rating: R Director: Ridley Scott Rating: B Run time: 145 minutes Venue: South Wind 12 Theatres In "Kingdom of Heaven," Ridley Scott's flawed but substantial Crusades epic, ships bearing white sails with huge red crosses painted on them leave the Port of Messina for the Holy Land of Jerusalem. It's an apt visual metaphor for a world filled with adventure, faith and blood. The film begins in France in 1186, when the 200-year war between European Christians and Eastern Muslims is well under way. Balian (Orlando Bloom), a French blacksmith, has recently become a widower after the suicide of his beloved wife. Her corpse still lies fresh on the ground when Godfrey (Liam Neeson) rides into town with his rugged band of knights and invites Balian on a crusade. After the blacksmith has killed the priest who cursed his dead wife, the Christians set out on a quest for the Holy Land. The first hour of "Kingdom of Heaven" is quieter and less violent than audiences have come to expect from the sword-and-sandal genre. The story unfolds on a small scale, with only a few fight scenes to show off Scott's fondness for the sound of metal driving through flesh and the sight of snow falling on the faces of the dead. The director and his screenwriter, William Monahan, have stacked much of the exposition toward the beginning, saving the spectacle for later. When he reaches Jerusalem, Balian gets caught up in the palace intrigue of the good King Baldwin (Edward Norton), the Christian ruler's beautiful sister, Sibylla (Eva Green) and her troublesome husband, Gui (Marton Csokas). Baldwin's nemesis, the Muslim leader Saladin (Ghassan Massoud), has taken up camp in Damascus with 200,000 men, waiting for the Christians to blink. While Norton creates the most vivid character in the movie, Bloom's performance is more problematic. The British poster-boy, who played Legolas in Peter Jackson's "The Lord of the Rings" trilogy, has buffed up considerably for the role. But he's still far too compact for an action star, and his voice lacks the force to command the center of attention. The film also has some underwritten characters and a bombastic score. Despite its flaws, "Kingdom of Heaven" thrills as a relevant piece of history and as a wide-screen visual feast. Where other filmmakers might have demonized Saladin and staged a classic battle of good versus evil, Scott treats the character with historical accuracy and respect. Salidin and his Saracen army attack only after Gui has slaughtered Muslim women and children. This sets up an unconventional final battle where the motivations of both sides are commendable. Scott's recreation of the Battle of Hattin is one of the most visually stunning action set pieces of recent years, with thousands of arrows flying overhead and fireballs lighting up the night in brilliant flashes. No one approaches action sequences with more directorial flair. "Kingdom of Heaven" ends with a haunting postscript stating that the conflict in the region continues to this day. Judged alongside similar epics of the decade, the film is more intelligent than "Troy" but less visceral than "Gladiator." Its emphasis on moral complexity will probably win it more admirers than hardcore fans, but this is the rare action movie that matters.

All three games of its series against No. 3 Texas will be televised on ESPN networks. Friday and Saturday's 6 p.m. games will be aired live on ESPNU, and Sunday's noon match-up will be shown on tape delay on ESPN2. But the University of Kansas isn't profiting from the national exposure in the way one might think. While the Kansas football team brings in hundreds of thousands of dollars for each televised home game, and the sports basketball team gets millions of dollars from ESPN every year, the University isn't making a dime from this weekend's games. The University doesn't require compensation from television networks for baseball games because national exposure is enough of a reward, said Jim Marchiony, associate athletics director of external affairs. "At this point of our baseball program, we're not at a point where we can demand a rights fee," Marchiony said. "We're just thrilled to be able to get this exposure and showcase the team to a national television audience." Senior pitcher Mike Zagurski agreed, because the Kansas baseball team has never played a home game on national television. HJ "This is a great opportunity for a program like ours that isn't an elite team," he said. "Playing one of the best Price teams in the country, on national TV, it just doesn't get any better than that." ESPN normally televises only the College World Series and select regional playoff games. But with no NHL games to show due to the league's lockout, the network has televised several college baseball and softball games during the past few weeks. The Big 12 Conference has been featured more than any other conference during that span. Marchiony said one possible reason for the increased focus on the Big 12 was because the SEC, a baseball-rich conference, wanted rights fees for televised baseball games, while the Big 12 didn't. Coach Ritch Price said he didn't mind playing on ESPN without receiving a rights fee and thought the Big 12 was using good strategy. "The Big 12 has had games on the last four weekends," Price said. "Every player in America looks forward to the day they can play on ESPN." He also said that the televised games would do wonders for the Kansas baseball program, and that he had sent e-mails to every high school recruit in his database informing them that Kansas would be playing on ESPN. The television attention should also help attendance at Hogglund Ballpark. "I expect to see over 2,000 fans for each game," Price said. "If you watch College Gameday before football and basketball games, you can tell college fans love that atmosphere and enjoy the games that much more." Edited by Azita Tafreshi ROYAL Momentum on the rise BY ALISSA BAUER abauer@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER Kansas will look to its threegame winning streak to provide the momentum it needs to defeat No. 3 Texas in front of a national audience this weekend. ESPNU and ESPN will broadcast all three games live from Hoglund Ballpark. Freshman pitcher Tyson Corley releases the ball while freshman second baseman Damon Sublet prepares to run Wednesday night in Wichita. Sublett eventually scored, but the Jayhawks went on to win the game 5-3. The Jayhawks (31-20, 6-11 Big 12 Conference) enter tonight's contest against the Longhorns (38-9, 13-7 Big 12) after turning the tables on a dwindling season this week. A 7-0 loss to Kansas State last Friday seemed to motivated Kansas to improve. It has not lost since and could continue that trend while being showcased on the number one sports network. Zach Strauss/KANSAN "It's tremendous exposure for our program. And the reality is that it is another step forward for us," coach Ritch Price said. "If we can play well on national TV, then obviously it's going to help us continue to improve the program." The embarrassing loss to the Wildcats in the series opener was followed by a pair of victories, resulting in the Jayhawks' first conference series victory of the season. This moved Kansas out of the cellar and to the ninth spot in the Big 12 in time for the Jayhawks' third consecutive victory, against Wichita State. Although the game against the Shockers was a nonconference game, the victories may have given Kansas momentum heading into tonight's game. "There is something to be said about winning." Price said after the victory against Wichita State on Wednesday. "It all builds momentum for the weekend." Momentum may be the name of the game this weekend, as the Jayhawks prepare to do whatever it SEE MOMENTUM ON PAGE 6B FOR THE WEEKEND JOE BANT jbant@kansan.com KU baseball offers more than cheap hot dogs People will try to sell you on the quarter hot dogs, and they'll have a point. A hot dog for a quarter? You can barely get a gumball for a quarter anymore. That's four for a dollar, 12 for $3 if the supplies hold, and that's the normal price of one. The possibilities alone inspire indigestion, and there's nothing better than parking yourself on a bleacher on a warm spring evening to watch your team play ball and having a ketchup-and-mustard-slathered hot dog while you do it. It's part of what makes America's pastime live up to that hallowed namesake. Sure, a frosty brew would be nice, but hey, you work with what you have. But enticing as they are, quarter dogs aren't the reason you should go watch the Kansas baseball team square off against Texas at Hoglund Ballpark today. And they aren't the reason you should go Saturday and Sunday too. In fact, if you do go Saturday and Sunday for hot dogs — well, I hate to say it, but you'll be disappointed because that deal is today only. The exposure's not the reason you should go to the games, either. Yes, ESPN is in town. Yes, the Jayhawks will be playing on a national television stage, so conceivably, you could end up on TV if a camera pans the crowd. But who cares? Big frickin' deal. The reason you should go to this weekend's game is simple: to watch some quality baseball and to watch Kansas fight for its postseason life. The Jayhawks have a 6-11 Big 12 Conference record, placing them at ninth in the league. At the end of the season, the top eight teams will be invited to play in the conference tournament with the opportunity to advance to the postseason. That means that right now the Jayhawks are on the outside looking in, and if they want to get in, they need to win, win, win, starting today. The good news is Kansas finally has some momentum on its side. It posted a big victory Wednesday night, rallying in the ninth inning to defeat cross-state rival Wichita State. In conference, the team garnered its first Big 12 series victory of the season against Kansas State last weekend. The bad news is replicating that feat against Texas is not going to be easy. The Longhorns are the No. 3 team in the country and among the best INTRAMURALS SEE BANT ON PAGE 6B Missed shots kick soccer final into overtime BY MICHAEL PHILIPS mphillips@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER WOMEN'S ROSTER Sudden death wasn't so sudden in the women's intramural soccer finals. Emily Hirsekorn put in the winning goal. She was the only player on either team who was not a freshman. Kappa Delta scored the winning goal during the 33rd minute of what was supposed to be a 20-minute game. The team defeated 9th Floor Ellsworth by a score of 2-1. "It wasn't too tiring, because we play on a short field," Hirsekorn, Lenexa sonhomore, said. Three-on-3 soccer is played with smaller goals, a reduced field and no goalies. The first half hinted at a high-scoring game. Within the first few minutes, 9th Floor Ellsworth put itself on the board.

Meinholdt scored another goal just seconds later, but it was disallowed because she was standing in the crease in front of the goal, a rule violation. Kappa Delta tried to retaliate by taking shots almost every time it touched the ball. Brittany Fellers, Salina freshman, struck gold when she fired from just steps in front of half-court. "I like the long shots," Fellers said, "and I just decided to put one in." The goal evened the score at one, and neither team saw many shots on goal for the rest of the half. Coming out of the halftime break, 9th Floor Ellsworth dropped out of its man-to-man defense and had Meinholdt play a defensive position. Kappa Delta played with one defender back during the whole game. In the first minute of the second half, Kappa Delta had two uncontested shots but did not convert on either. The game took on a faster pace, with both teams trying to hurry their offenses. The increased speed resulted in more shot opportunities for both teams, but no goals. Ninth Floor Ellsworth scored on a kick from across the court, but the goal was disallowed. In 3-on-3 soccer, only goals made from halfcourt or closer count as points. As the game approached the 20-minute mark, neither team was able to break the 1-tie. The teams went to a three-minute sudden death period. Within the first minute, 9th Floor Elsworth had a breakaway.

Ward has been the team-leader and the most consistent golfer for the Jayhawks all season long. He leads the team with his 72-stroke average. His top performance of the season came at the Colorado-Stevinson Ranch Invitational March 21-22. In the second round, Ward fired a career-low 64 and went on to win the tournament, shooting a three-round total of 208 (8-under-par). part. The Leawood native propelled Kansas to its second consecutive victory in the event and sixth in the past seven years. in the past seven Ward was named national player of the week by Golfweek on April 1 for his play in the Stevinson Ranch Invitational. Erin Droste/KANSAN This spring, Ward has been the top finisher in five of the Jayhawk's seven tournaments, and eight of the 10 tournaments in the 2004-05 season. "He's one of the hardest working players we've ever had," coach Ross Randall said. "I am glad to see that all of his hard work finally paid off." Ward's name appears on a list with some of the best players in college golf. Oklahoma's Anthony Kim, Big 12 Tournament champion, was named the 2005 Men's Big 12 Golf Player of the Year. Also on this year's all-conference team were Jeremy Alcorn of Baylor, Tyler Leon, Zack Robinson and Alex Noren of Oklahoma State and Matthew Rosenfeld of Texas. Oklahoma State's Pablo Martin won the Newcomer of the Year award, and Oklahoma State coach Mike Holden won Coach of the Year for the third time.

WOMEN'S GOLF Golf team not green By TRAVIS ROBINETT trobinet@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWITTER Without any seniors on the women's golf team this season, the juniors were the ones who gave the underclassmen lessons in experience. "I think the girls really do look up to us, being older," junior Meredith Winkelmann said. Winkelmann, along with fellow juniors Chesisey Pryor and Tiffany Woods, have big goals for their last year at Kansas s. With region- als or PENN BRAUN With regionals once Pryor again the team's main goal, the incoming seniors will be the ones taking responsibility. "We want to do whatever we can to be the best leaders on and off the golf course that we can be," Pryor said. "We really want to be good representatives of this team and we want to take our team to regionals. The Jayhawks were close to accomplishing their goal of getting to regionals this year. With everyone returning, the experience gained this year could really pay off. "Frankly I think just having the opportunity to sit in that room and listen to the list of names going to regionals was really important," Pryor said. "We've never done that before, even never been in that position to do that." Another positive aspect for next season is that coach Erin O'Neil will be in her second season with Kansas. After taking over for M e g a n m E m n z e l O'Neil, a former Future's Tour player, which is the developmental tour for the LPGA, added ALEXANDRA DUBOIS "She's a big fan of getting a lot of quality out of your practice," she said. "It's not necessarily about quantity. Especially for me, and I think for a lot of the girls on the team too, that was really important, and I think that helped us a lot this year." more organization and focus to the team's practices, Pryor said. Winklemann During the summer, Pryor and Winkelmann agreed that their short game would be their top priority to help lower their scores, and that playing in a few tournaments would keep the competition up. Pryor will go home to Washington, Pa., but Winkelmann said she planned to stay in Lawrence and take advantage of Kansas' facilities. "A lot of us go to the same tournaments," Winkelmann said. "A lot of people come back to Lawrence maybe once or twice during the summer, too." When the incoming freshmen show up for practice in the fall, they will have nine returning players to draw advice from. Pryor said that her advice to I am a passionate teacher. I enjoy helping students learn and grow, and I am always eager to share my knowledge with them. Woods them would be to come in with a positive attitude, but realize that it will not be great every day they go to the course. "If you realize that sooner rather than later, you'll be able to handle it better," she said. "Fun is key. It's college, and although everyone is here to work hard and do well you also need to have a good experience. And we're fun." MLB Edited by Austin Caster Nationals confident in possibilities BY HOWARD FENDRICH THE ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON — Toward the end of the Washington Nationals' first month in its new home, where the team has been winning more than losing, someone took a black marker to the white board outside its RFK Stadium clubhouse and scribbled this: "We might not have it all together right now guys but together we can have it all. Let's do it." Inspirational? Perhaps. Sappy? Sure. Indicative of fresh expectations for a team that not long ago was the last-place Montreal Expos? Very much so. One calendar page into their debut season, the Washington Nationals are 15-13, averaging better than 30,000 fans and taking pleasure in the little things — such as packing a tiny overnight bag for short road trips. "We've just got to fight back and not let ourselves get down because we lost two in a row or whatever. This club is more mature and doesn't let that bother it," said second baseman Jose Vidro, whose Montreal tenure was the longest among current players. "This team is capable of winning one-run games, 1-0 games. This team is capable of anything." And there's no lack of confidence. anything. Such as taking two of three games at the NL West-leading Dodgers, a feat capped yesterday with Livan Hernandez's complete game in a 5-2 victory. to going 0-795. “If you want to look at last year, it’s making tremendous progress,” manager Frank Robinson said. “But I don’t look at last year. I look at this year, and how the team is playing. I like the way we’ve played.” A win at San Francisco today would be No. 16. The Expos didn't have that many until May 30 last season, by which point they had lost 33 en route to going 67-95. Yet asked what the most pleasant surprise of 2005 has been, the Hall of Famer didn't refer to John Patterson's 1.60 ERA or Washington's 7-4 record in games decided by one or two runs; the 2004 Expos were 16-30 in one-run games. Instead, he pointed to support at home. Instead, he polluted the last year's Expos averaged 9,356 spectators in Montreal and San Juan. Through 13 games, the Nationals are averaging 30,672 — 12th in the majors. And that's without any marketing to speak of: The first campaign, "Let Yourself Go," starts next week. In Baltimore, the Orioles are drawing 29,354, a drop of nearly 15 percent from last season's average. Only 15,641, the smallest crowd in Camden Yards' 14 years, showed up Monday for the team leading the AL East. And it's not just the numbers that excite Robinson and his players. It's the jeers when opposing pitchers throw to first base to hold a runner. It's the standing ovation for Vinny Castilla when he went to bat needing a single to complete a cycle. It's the bouncing that makes the stands shake. It's the "Gooooz" calls when Cristian Guzman comes to the plate. "I figured we'd draw well," Robinson said, "but I didn't know if they'd be this enthusiastic." EAT MOR PORK... THE ONLY WATER BEAT AT Bigg's Shake-shake There are other adjustments, of course. Robinson gets to and from the stadium with the help of a car and driver, because the D.C. streets are tough to navigate. Outfielder Brad Wilkerson was checking out real estate ads in front of his locker last weekend. There have been problems with RFK. The mound is being rebuilt this week, and co-tenant D.C. United complained that its soccer field was lopsided. But the Nationals are learning the park's quirks — balls carry down the lines and die in center, for example. Now, if they could just get a new owner, the Nationals would finally feel like any major league team. The other 29 clubs own the Nationals. "I'd still like to see an owner get in here and take control of this ballclub," Wilkerson said. "It would make a huge difference."

Ozuna later tied the game when Juan Uribe walked with the bases loaded. The White Sox won 2-1. CHICAGO — Even with just a little offense, Jose Contreras and the Chicago White Sox found a way to win again. THE ASSOCIATED PRESS "Like I said in the past, we are doing whatever it takes to score runs. The story up until now is pitching," Scott Podsidnik said. "Those guys are pitching their tails off, keeping us in ball games. It's matter of us, as an offensive unit, to get things cranked up and start putting some runs on the board." Contreras pitched four-hit ball for eight innings, and the streaking White Sox scored twice in the eighth without a hit to defeat the Kansas City Royals 2-1 vesteday. Contreras (1-0) outpitched Royals starter Zack Greinke, leading the White Sox to their fifth-straight win. They have the best record in the major leagues at 21-7, mostly because of solid pitching. - With Contreras' strong start, Chicago's team ERA dipped to 2.94. Greinke, who had never pitched more than seven innings in his career, gave up a leadoff walk to Paul Konerko in the eighth. Pablo Ozuna pinchran and moved to second on Aaron Rowand's sacrifice bunt. Graffanino homered in the seventh, but Kansas City couldn't hold the 1-0 lead and lost for the 15th time in 18 games. Jermaine Dye was hit by a pitch, and Royals manager Tony Pena pulled Greinke for left-hander Andrew Sisco. Pinch-hitter Jamie Burke grounded out, advancing the runners to second and third. Sisco then walked Joe Crede and Juan Uribe, forcing in the twing run. Greinke (0-3) allowed two hits in 7 1-3 innings and Tony After Sico's first pitch to Podsednik was called a ball, Pena called in Ambiorix Burgos. But he threw three straight balls to Podsednik, walking in another run and giving the White Sox a 2-1 lead. "Both of those guys had problems throwing strikes, so it was a matter of us letting them come out of their zone to put guys on. I wasn't looking to swing, I was going to make them throw strikes before I went in trying to hit." Podsednik said. Contreras retired 17 of his first 19 hitters. He struck out six and walked one in his longest outing of the season. Shingo Takatsu walked two in the ninth but earned his eighth save in nine opportunities. Normally a slow worker, Contreas pitched at a brisk pace — the game lasted just 2 hours, 10 minutes. White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen was impressed with the way Contreas attacked the strike zone. "Contreras threw the ball really well, the best I've ever seen him throwing the ball, and he deserved to win," Guillen said. "He threw more strikes. Usually he throws behind the count or 3-2. Today he came out, challenged hitters, threw balls over the plate and made guys hit the ball." Greinke faced the minimum 21 batters through seven innings. A.J. Pierzynski singled in the third, then was doubled off first base when Uribe lined out. Podsednik singled in the fourth, but was caught stealing. KENTUCKY DERBY Horse trainer still in Derby despite drug controversy BY BETH HARRIS THE ASSOCIATED PRESS LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Jeff Mullins would like to forget his winter of discontent, and not just because record rainfall in Southern California made for countless dreary, soggy days at the ractrack. He was punished when one of his horses had a positive drug test in January, and he ticked off bettors by calling them idiots in March. Now he's back at his fourth consecutive Kentucky Derby with long shot Buzzards Bay. The 42-year-old trainer wasn't talking yesterday, except to say his attorney had advised silence because of pending legal issues. "He's had a rough winter," said Bob Baffert, a three-time Derby winner who has been supportive of Mullins. "He asked me for advice, and I told him, 'You just need to shut the hell up. Your only defense is you got to keep winning." Mullins has done just that. He finished second in the trainers' standings at Santa Anita's winter meeting, where Buzzards Bay gave him a third consecutive victory in the Santa Anita Derby. That punched the colt's ticket to Kentucky, where he jogged a mile over the Churchill Downs track for the first time yesterday. Mullins didn't lose clients because of the positive drug test; in fact, Buzzards Bay's coowner Bill Bianco is a member of the California Horse Racing Board. The board filed a complaint against Mullins for conduct detrimental to racing after he insulted the wagering public while talking to a newspaper columnist, but it was later dismissed. "He didn't shoot himself in the foot. He blew his foot plum off," trainer D. Wayne Lukas said. "He'd like to take that month out of his life, I know. He learned a lot from that." Even after Mullins apologized in a television interview, "There's no question that it didn't shine a very good light on a lot of the trainers and it definitely wasn't beneficial," said Ron Ellis, who trains in California and has Don't Get Mad in the Derby. bad feelings lingered among taunting fans, angry industry officials and some of his fellow trainers. The year got off to a rocky start when one of Mullins' horses tested positive for an excessive amount of sodium bicarbonate. The milkshake-like mixture is suspected of masking other drugs in a horse's system and keeps the animal from tiring as quickly. For 30 days, Mullins' horses had to appear in a detention barn for 24-hour observation before they ran. He was winning at a 28 percent clip before the positive test. During detention, he dropped to 13 percent before finishing the meeting at 22 percent. All the Kentucky Derby horses will undergo pre-race blood tests for milkshakes. "He's got a ton of horses, so it obviously hasn't hurt him much." Ellis said. "He dug himself a pretty deep hole. If he wins the Derby, they won't remember." Mullins has worked his way up from racing's minor leagues in Arizona, Idaho, Utah and Wyoming to the ultra-competitive Southern California circuit. The Murray, Utah, native won his first training title at Hollywood Park in 2003; last year, he earned $6.9 million in purses and won at a rate of 26 percent. He's the first trainer to win the Santa Anita Derby three years in a row. "Jeff's an exceptional trainer," said trainer Roger Stein, who finished second to Mullins in this year's Santa Anita Derby. "I know he's been involved in controversy and I've told him he's a much better trainer than he is a speaker." Lukas offered his endorsement, too, saying, "He's a good horseman. He knows what he's doing. He's got a great future."

Because this was the championship game, the teams played sudden-death periods until a winner could be determined. Kappa Delta created shots with its passing in the second half, but missed all of them. "We had a lot of shots," Hirsekorn said, "They just weren't going in." With 10 minutes elapsed in the sudden death, Hirsekorn got the ball on a breakaway. She unleashed the shot, a slow roller that found its target. "I knew I had a clear shot," she said, "and I didn't want to let my teammates down." The team celebrated victory while simultaneously catching its breath. The statistics made this final look like a professional soccer match — there were lots of shots, but only three goals. Men's open: Cotton Balls 2, Goodfellas 1 For a golfer, Shane Ewing adjusted to soccer quite well. He put in both of the Cotton Balls' goals, leading them to an intramural 3-on-3 soccer championship.

Most passes ended up out of bounds, creating more whistles than shots in the first half. Both teams employed a man-to-man defense and sometimes double-teamed the player with the ball. The second half started the same way as the first, and at the 15-minute mark no one had scored. The Goodfellas' Erik Broxterman broke free of his defender and had an open shot from about 10 yards away. Broxterman, Overland Park freshman, scored, putting his team on top 1-0. It was a short-lived lead, however. Two minutes later, Ewing controlled the ball at midfield for the Cotton Balls. He spun off of his defender and attempted a long shot that "We knew we could get something going if we took enough shots," Ewing said. bounced into the net. The Cotton Balls weren't done. About 30 seconds later, Chris Bystrom, Ames, Iowa, sophomore, sent a pass downfield to Ewing, who had beaten his defender.

Erin Droste/KANSAN It was blocked on a sliding tackle by the Cotton Balls' Mike Kutz, preserving the victory. "I was just trying to keep the ball out of the net," Kutz, St. Louis junior, said.

Heads up - Edited by Austin Caster BASEBALL Padres pitcher to sit against former team ST.LOUIS — A rib-cage injury cost Woody Williams a bittersweet opportunity to pitch against the team with which he enjoyed his greatest success. Williams, who signed a free-agent contract with the San Diego Padres after three seasons with the St. Louis Cardinals, had been scheduled to face St. Louis Friday night. He was placed on the 15-day disabled list Wednesday after being inured in batting practice "He said he was disappointed he wasn't going to pitch," Cardinals manager Tony La russa said yesterday. "I said, I'm not. I don't want to be pulling against him." Williams, 38, was so highly respected during his time in St. Louis that his signed jersey hangs in La Russa's office. He started Game 1 of all three rounds of the postseason last year for the National League champions, and teammates voted him the Darryl Kile award winner for leadership. "He was real special," La Russa said. Williams was to have faced Jeff Suppan Friday, and he joked with his former teammate: "I'm ducking you, Supe. I wanted no part of you." R.B. Fallstrom/ The Associated Press As the Jayhawks have earned 50 victories for their third consecutive season, the Longhorns are playing toward 50 victories for their fourth consecutive year. The Longhorns consistently are the powerhouse of the Big 12, even though they are behind Baylor and Nebraska in the conference standings heading into this weekend. After holding the No.1 spot in the country the entire season, the Longhorns fell to third this week. "I think we have to walk in there with the same mindset — that we are going to win the series," Price said. "I think that if you walk into the series and you are intimated by them they are going to take you apart." Big 12 player of the week David Maroul has been on a hot streak for Texas. He hit 500 against Missouri during Texas' last Big 12 series. Senior shortstop Seth Johnston went 2-3, scoring three runs and three RBI in Texas' most recent series, against the University of Texas-Pan American. Johnston enters the game on an 11-game hitting streak and is leading the team in batting average (.403) and RBI (40). "I just hope they are number one when they come here. I've been hoping that all week," Junior first baseman Jared Schweitzer, leads the way for the Jayhawks. Schweitzer, hitting .346, with a hit in tonight's game could tie the school record for longest hitting streak (21), previously held by Ryan Baty. On his list of goals, however, setting the record is second to a series victory. Price said. "We want them to be number one, we want the place sold out, and it will give us a chance to do something special on ESPN. switztzer said. "They're obviously a great team, but I think we'll be pretty pumped up to play them. We'll be ready. Schweitzer revealed that his secret was that he refused to cut his hair while his streak was still active. Joining on the superstition wagon, the majority of the team will sport mustaches in order to win. Senior catcher Sean Richardson caught fire against the Shockers on Wednesday, going 2-3 with a three-run home run. Besides his three RBI, Richardson also scored the winning run. Richardson believes in both: the mustaches, and continuing the momentum they've started. "I think it's great momentum. I think the mustaches everyone's growing is working pretty well right now," Richardson said. "We're playing really well right now. Hopefully we can take this momentum into the weekend against Texas." The Texas lineup is hitting .296 while the Kansas lineup is POTENTIAL STARTERS Momentum CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B The following are possible starting pitchers for the Kansas baseball team's weekend series against No. 3 Texas; "It should be a lot of fun," takes to get a pair of victories against the Longhorns.

Gautt led Oklahoma in rushing in 1958 and 1959 and was an all-Big Eight selection both seasons. He rushed for 94 yards and a touchdown on only six carries and was named the MVP of the 1959 Orange Bowl, which Oklahoma won 21-6.

Gautt died at a hospital in Lawrence, Kan., where he and his wife lived. Bant CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B defensive teams in the Big 12. Since being swept by first-place Baylor in its first conference outing in March, Texas hasn't lost another Big 12 series. Luckily, at least lately, Kansas has been bringing the kind of offense necessary to compete with the Texas defense. During their past four games, the Jayhawks have bashed out 40 hits and 34 runs. If the Kansas bats can sing some more this weekend, the team might just be able to celebrate a series victory Sunday evening. Taking the series against the Longhorns would be huge for the Jayhawks on a couple different levels. It would keep them going strong in the race for the postseason, and on National television, it would be great exposure for a team on the rise. It would also mark the first time Kansas has ever won a conference series against Texas. And that's the real reason to go to the games this weekend. Yeah, hot dogs are great, and so is TV, but they can't compete with the drama of what this weekend means to the Kansas baseball team. "It's a huge statement for us," coach Ritch Price said. "It's tremendous exposure for our program and a step forward for us." Bant is a Colorado Springs, Colo., senior in journalism.

Participating graduates must pay $16 for each person who attends the luncheon, which includes a traditional hooding ceremony for masters students. Twelve students in the graduate program sent a letter complaining about the cost and the four-person ticket limit to John Gaunt, dean of architecture. Gaunt, who has worked at the school for 11 years, said he had never received a complaint about the luncheon. The traditional ceremonial luncheon dates back at least 25 years, he said. Michael Tedesco, one of the leaders for the complaint and Spokane, Wash., master's student, said the fee was unnecessary. The ceremony for his undergraduate class of 120 students at the University of Idaho was free, and there was also no limit to the number of family members and friends who could attend the ceremony. "I just dropped 30,000 bucks and I don't get to graduate for free," he said. He later wrote in an e-mail: "I've got three brothers, two parents, a wife and a daughter; not to mention, extended family members. Who do I leave behind?" The ceremonial luncheon, which precedes the University of Kansas' commencement ceremony and walking down the hill, is completely optional. Gaunt said.

BY ESTUARDO GARCIA egarcia@kansan.com KANSAN STUD WRIVER In his "The Pack," 2003 Kansas football defense T-shirt, Travis Watkins confirms the proper camera angle for his associate Gordon Brown of Avalon Video, who is making a DVD for the poet. "OK, zoom in a little bit," he asks Brown. Brown zooms in closer, centering Watkins in the view finder. Watkins looks into the monitor and smiles approvingly. He's now ready for his poetry performance at the Hawk's Nest in the Kansas Union Saturday night. "I don't know what a traditional poet looks like," he said. "I just know who I am." At 6-foot-4, 270 pounds Watkins, former Jayhawk defensive tackle, does not look like a poet. And he is the 2005 College Language Association national winner for his poem titled "Brothers." Watkins began writing poetry in high school. He loves the freedom that poetry gives him to manipulate words and word sounds, he said. He also likes to use poetry to get his message out, which includes speaking out against the war in Iraq and commenting on social change. "And children are murdered/ over pronons and verbs/ and towers are toppled/ cuz mad-men ad-verbs/ to text that are holy/ then terror occurs/ but if you want to see truly/ the power of words, then,.../Nigger! Spick! Kyke! Fagel! Does, that strike a nerve." "My word" Inspiring poet It was after Watkins saw a performance by Dan Banks, another poet, that he was inspired to focus on developing his own poetic style and voice. His own blend of poetry that speaks about political and social issues are also about personal issues. He wants to make his work available to everybody and help other up- and-coming poets to be heard. His poetry has also been profitable — he has sold hundreds of CDs, making thousands of dollars in CDs sales and performances in the past year. Saturday night was also a special night for Krista Watkins, Travis' mother. It was the first time she had seen her son perform his poetry. "A lot of his poems have meaning and it hits a nerve," she said. Balancing act His success is not a surprise to Krista. She remembers Watkins often staying up past his bedtime writing. What surprised Krista was that her son was graduating with honors, receiving a degree in history and African-American studies and moving to Houston to become a third-grade teacher in the fall. "I thought he would do something in sports or do something in the field of art," she said.

Kelly Hutsell/KANSAN SCIENCE Hearings revisit Scopes trial BY JOHN HANNA THE ASSOCIATED PRESS TOPEKA — Echoing the famed "Monkey Trial" of 80 years ago, three days of public hearings about evolution culminated Saturday in sparring between opposing attorneys. A State Board of Education subcommittee took testimony from critics of evolution who hope students are exposed to more criticism of the theory. The entire board expects to consider changes this summer in standards that determine how students are tested on science statewide. John Calvert, a retired Lake Quivira attorney who helped found the Intelligent Design Network and organized the case against evolution, called himself as his own last witness. That led to questioning from Pedro Irigonegaray, a Topeka attorney representing advocates of continuing a state policy in which standards describe evolution as a key concept for students to learn. Irigonegaray's sharpest questions came over the Board of Education's decision to allocate $5,000 to cover lodging and some other expenses for Calvert's nearly two dozen witnesses. When trigonegaray asked whether that money normally would have gone to educate Kansas children, Calvert replied, "I believe that was the purpose of these hearings." purpose of these messages Irigonegaray's questions led to an outburst from the audience, where a spectator said he didn't mind having taxpayers pay for witnesses' expenses because the teaching of evolution is an important issue. The man declined to identify himself later. Battles over evolution also have occurred in Michigan, Ohio and Pennsylvania in recent years. In Kansas, scientists worry the board is being pushed to include intelligent design in the standards, though language advocated by intelligent-design advocates doesn't mention it by name. Calvert's witnesses questioned evolutionary theory that life originated from a common source and that man and apes have a common ancestor. Intelligent design says some features of the natural world are so complex and well-ordered that they are best explained by an intelligent cause. Irigonegaray derided it as "creationism in a new wrapper" Kansas school board members sought to avoid comparisons between their hearings and the 1925 Monkey Trial in Dayton, Tenn., in which teacher John Scopes was convicted of violating a state law against teaching evolution In 1925, attorney Clarence Darrow, representing Scopes, attempted to make creationism look foolish. In modern-day Kansas, evolution is on trial. irrigation defenders' case Thursday, but he doesn't plan to call witnesses. State and national science groups are boycotting the hearings, viewing them as rigged against evolution because the three presiding board members are part of a conservative majority receptive to criticism of evolution. Calvert's witnesses argued that evolution, as typically taught, promotes atheism. Calvert argued that excluding other ideas from the classroom favored a nontheistic religion — creating constitutional problems. "It's deeply wrong," said Bruce Glymour, who teaches about the philosophy of science at Kansas State University. "This isn't science. It's politics."

MONDAY MAY 9 2005 NEWS THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN 3A NIGHTLIFE Slow Ride opens, bikers take it easy BY NEIL MULKA nmulka@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER s| About 1 p.m. Saturday, a biker on a black and chrome Harley-Davidson pulls into the northbound lane of Third Street. He waves his arm to the herd of bikers behind him in the parking lot of Slow Ride Roadhouse Bar & Grill, 1350 N. 3rd St. "C'mon, let's go!" He yells as a traffic jam builds up on his right. Welcome to Slow Ride, what co-owner Janet Delt describes as a place built for bikers by bikers. The herd answers his call and flows two or three at a time into the street and drives away to its next destination. MIDNIGHT SHOW "There really isn't a full-fledged biker bar out here," Dight, 2000 doctoral graduate, said. "There are a number of biker-friendly bars around the Kansas City area — Colby's, Frankie D's — but there isn't one in Lawrence." Rvlan Howe/KANSAN Patrons at Slow Ride Roadhouse Bar & Grill, 1350 N. 3rd St., enjoy the music of Doug Deming and The Jeweltones Saturday night in the recently opened bar. Slow Ride features live music on weekends and will have a Bike Night every Thursday. "Biker-friendly" means that places have biker nights or welcomes bikers, Dight said. "We say we're not just biker-friendly, we're biker-dedicated," she said. The bar and grill, which opened April 23, got its name from the '70s rock song "Slow Ride" by Foghat and a biker contest with the same name. "You try to race your motorcycle as slow as you can," Dight said. "If you put your feet down or fall over you lose. So it's a place to slow down." The interior of the bar and grill looks like it was molded from a Harley-Davidson motorcycle: The booths, chairs and stools are made of black and orange vinyl seating. Chrome is the material of choice for the ceiling and Slow Ride logo is etched in steel above the bar, which has a black tabletop. On the jugebake a rotation of Johnny Cash, Lynyrd Skynyd and Guns 'N' Roses play as people sip their drinks or eat what Dight calls "traditional road-house food" such as Philly cheesesteak sandwiches, mashed potatoes and meatloaf. Slow Ride also provides live music every weekend. Classic rock, Southern rock, blues and country acts will be the primary music plaved. Dight said. Motorcycle-only parking is expected to be put in on the east side of the building in a couple weeks, Maggie Del Campo, coowner of Slow Ride, said. The biker crowd is the most interesting aspect of working at Slow Ride, April Del Campo, bartender and Lawrence junior, said. "People have a misconception of bikers," she said. "They're a really nice crowd." Edited by Nikola Rowe Fee CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A "For all I know, the letter was written by a single student representing 11 other students," Gaunt said. "It's unfortunate anyone should feel that way." did not express concerns of a large opinion. He said the majority of students seemed to understand the school's need to charge for the luncheon. The $16 is the direct amount for each plated dinner. Each person is limited to four tickets, but it is always possible to get more because not everyone uses all four tickets, Gaunt said. People can look over the balcony in the ballroom, which makes it more accommodating, Gaunt said An unofficial ceremony will take place before the official school luncheon, Jim Mayo, Urban Planning chairman, said. The event will allow more family members to attend. The master's students, however, won't be hooded, he said. The problem won't be fixed next year if the complaint arises again because the school already reserved the Union Ballroom for next year's graduation, Gaunt said. Tedesco said he didn't know if he would attend the unofficial ceremony because he wanted his entire family to see him get hooded. - Edited by Austin Caster WORLD Baghdad bombing kills 22; attacks kill 300 in last 10 days ON CAMPUS BAGHADD, Iraq — Two suicide car bombers plowed into a foreign security company convoy in the heart of Baghdad on Saturday, killing at least 22 people — including two Americans — in an attack that left a busy traffic circle strewn with burning vehicles, mutilated bodies and bloodied schoolchildren. Nearly 300 people have been killed in insurgent violence since Iraq's democratically elected government was sworn in 10 days ago. Seven government posts remained undecided Saturday,but Prime Minister Ibrahim al-Jaafari said he would submit nominations for six of them to the National Assembly for a vote Sunday. - The Associated Press NATION Woman receives 20 years for macabre life insurance scam GEORGETOWN, Texas — Molly Daniels spent weeks surfing the Internet, gathering information for a bizarre and grisly plot of deception. She learned how to burn a human body, sought clues on ways to deceive arson investigators, and took steps to create a new identity for her husband. Daniels then dug up a woman's corpse, staged a fiery car accident to fake her husband's death, and had him re-emerge as her new boyfriend. Authorities say it was all to collect a $110,000 life insurance policy while hiding her husband, Clayton Daniels, from the cops. Daniels pleaded guilty this past week to felony charges of insurance fraud and hindering apprehension, and was sentenced to 20 years in prison.

Edited by Laura Francoviglia Poetry CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A He had trouble with teachers and with grades during grade school, she said. Growing up as a biracial child in a single parent home wasn't easy for Watkins and his older brother Michael. Watkins' father was incarcerated more than once during his childhood, leaving both children to be raised by his white mother. Balancing a mother's work life, the children's' activities and trying to maintain a relationship with an imprisoned father was a struggle for the whole family. turned black..." It also was a source of inspiration for four of Watkins' poems. "You got sons who perceive that/ they grow up to be that/ It's a cycle of death/ even blind men can see that/ but we won't concede that/ and we won't believe that/ to slave have we turned back/ our masters have "—My fear is for you (Young Black Males)" Encouraging words Krista said she tried to encourage her children to be themselves and to be blind when it came to looking at the color of their skin. And even if she wasn't always able to be there, she always wanted her children to be themselves. When Watkins was in grade school he performed in a school recital, which his mother was unable to attend. Krista was upset she wasn't able to make it. When she got home she pulled out a video camera and had Watkins reperform his part of the recital. She said she was happy to share that moment with him. "I walk around with a pound of verbs and nouns/ my, lungs are guns and my words are rounds/ I shot lyrics from the ground so profound the sun came down/ and walked around with a frown at what he found." - "600 soldiers" Shaping the future Watkins kept writing on into college, with encouragement from his coaches, teammates and his wife, Brandi, whom he married last May. Not only did his poetry improve, but he also improved his grades. On top of graduating this spring with honors, Watkins started his own production company, Layman Lyric, which he used to produce his CD and soon DVD. He is looking forward to graduation and to his future with his wife. His plans to move to Houston to become an elementary school teacher, he said, were because he thought the key to social equality was education. He felt that he could make a difference as a teacher. Watkins' CDs will be available at Hastings Books Music & Videos, 1900 W. 23rd St., May 15 and on his Web site www.laymanlyrics.com. He is also currently working on a book of his poetry. — Edited by Nikola Rowe Jaybow during Open Bowling At 106745 KANSAS AIRPORT Jaybow! $2/game w/KUID during Open Bowling: Afternoons, nights and weekends 1064-1355 KANNAN UNION LEVEL 1 Jaybow.com MATH 11 FR 12-1 SAT 12-12 SUN 12-10 LIBERTY HALL 644 Mass 749-1912 MILLIONS (pkt) 4:30 7:00 9:30 OFF THE MAP (pkt-19) 4:40 7:10 9:30 BOOK OUTLINE JEFFERSON COMMONS unique student apartments 1 MONTH OF RENT FREE IF YOU SIGN BY APRIL 31, RENTS START AT $266/month CHECK THIS OUT! • FREE Internet Access • Fitness Center • Cable: HBO, MTV, ESPN • Full-size Washer/Dryer • FREE Tanning • Individual Leases • Lighted Basketball Court • Ceiling Fans in All Rooms CALL US TODAY! 842-0032 AND MUCH MORE! 2511 West 31st Street NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews NewsNewsNewsNews Now.

A BROADBODY OF EDUCATION BEAUTY TUIT 会 I OPINION MONDAY, MAY 9.2005 WWW.KANSAN.COM ▼ IT JUST MAKES SENSE Students deserve to know reason why dean lost his job It's been a month and the student body still does not know why its dean of students was fired. PAGE 5A In a press release April 8, the University said only that someone filed a formal complaint against Richard Johnson and upon completion of an investigation the University fired Johnson. PARKING STEPHANIE LOVETT slovett@kansan.com University Relations said the firing was a "personnel issue" and that it would not provide more details. An Open Records Act request for the complaint was rejected April 18, and questioning University Relations has gone nowhere. Clearly, the administration has no plans to provide any context for Johnson's firing. This is a mistake. Students, and the University community have a right to know, and the University should provide a reason without having to be asked. Dean of students is not only a high profile position. The dean is charged with knowing students, interacting with students and providing a resource for students. Johnson was close to numerous students, especially student leaders because of his position as adviser to Student Senate. Based on the open records Based on the open records request rejection the Kansan received, it was clear the complaint against Johnson involved a student. It might be an intrusion in Johnson's privacy, but the interest of students merits a contextual explanation of why their dean was fired. Lynn Bretz, director of University Relations, said the main reasons for the University's silence was because it was abiding by state law and respecting the privacy of those involved. Ben Eggleston, philosophy professor specializing in ethics, said there could be reasons the University shouldn't have to disclose grounds for firing employees. Privacy allows the administration to discharge employees without fear of being castigated by the media. But that is precisely why administrators should disclose their reasons. If the reasons were valid, no one would question them. If illegal activity was suspected — especially illegal activity involving a student — then students should know what was considered And, ethically speaking, the University should provide an explanation if the lack of disclosure is being used to shield people who are accountable, Egleston said. unprofessional behavior. Moreover, by not giving any explanation, administrators are allowing speculation to become the "truth." Stories are circulating among students. especially those involved in Student Senate, about Johnson drinking with students But speculative stories aren't fact. By not commenting on these rumors, the University is allowing gossip to be the only story told. The University community deserves an answer. The name of the student who filed need not and should not be revealed. The community deserves to know the nature of the complaint. It might be an intrusion Much like parents who answer "why?" with "because," an administration that responds to questions without answers is loathed, not respected. Telling the truth would foster trust between students and the administration while continued secrecy would breed distrust and suspicion. in Johnson's privacy, but the interest of students merits a contextual explanation of Johnson's firing. - Loveit is a Kansas City, Mo., senior in journalism and political science. She is a night editor for the Kansan. * LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Vatican passes on opportunity to move into 21st century with backward pope Vince Myers' recent column, "Don't Expect Catholic pope to advocate liberal ideals," seemed to represent more of Myers' personal vendetta against liberals than it did the facts. The pope is a religious, as well as political leader of the Vatican. As Myer's rightfully states, the pope is not a leader of a secular nation; however, does that necessarily then mean that the leader of such a theocratic state cannot move towards a more progressive system of human rights? Although delegates from the Vatican cannot vote in the United Nations General Assembly, the Vatican's influence in global issues has increased over recent years having been granted status as a "permanent observer" in the U.N. In 1948, the United Nations adopted the "Universal Declaration of Human Rights" The first article of the aforementioned docu- trine states the following: "All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights. They are endowed with reason and conscience and should act towards one another in a spirit of brotherhood." The first article of the U.N. was passed for good reason: To protect the world from past atrocities. If the Vatican wishes to participate further in global issues, it should become more attune to the statues of the organization of which they sincerely want to participate. Remarks made by the newly instilled pope before he was elected to the papacy is certainly a cause for concern: his remarks attack minorities, in and outside of the catholic church (divorced couples, gays), as well as members of other religions, which clearly impedes and mutilates the rights of individuals throughout the world. For a religion that holds the beauty and value of human life with such high regard, the pinnacle of its corporeal hierarchy seems to be sending mixed messages of its true intentions. Devin S. Sikes Wichita senior Spanish and philosophy Community still deserves to be aware of presence of known child molester Wednesday's editorial regarding Leroy Hendricks' move to Lawrence missed a few points. As most KU students are probably not parents, this is forgivable, but the record should be corrected. The editorial did not mention that not only does the state want to move Hendricks to Lawrence, but he will live at an undisclosed address. That's right, Hendricks could be your next door neighbor. Wouldn't you like to know his address before you choose which apartment to live in next fall, or invite your little brother or sister to visit? The editorial expressed the belief that Hendricks has served his time and therefor should be left alone. Yet, Hendricks has no right to privacy. He is a convicted felon. He does not have the right to vote. He does not have the right to own a gun. So why should he be awarded the right to privacy? The state is putting the privacy of a convicted felon above the protection of childern. Living at an undisclosed address may protect Hendricks from harassment, but at what cost? By protecting Hendricks, we sacrifice the safety of innocent children. Laura Snyder Shawnee senior Journalism SACK'S PERSPECTIVE IN CASE OF NOT GETTING 100% OF WHAT YOU WANT, WHENEVER YOU WANT IT, BREAK GLASS SENATE RULES Steve Sack/STAR TRIBUNE MCLEOD MADNESS Ladies: Get some clues about trying to understand men "Crikey! Look over there, mates, it's the elusive maleus sexus — one of the most confusing animals of the lot. Be real careful, now, 'cause this little fella's not too bright, and he'll run right back into the underbrush if you advance too quickly. Now, what I'm P BETSY MCLEOD bmcleod@kansan.com going to do is be real slow and easy and try to coax this little guy into our cage here ... Blimey he's spotted us, and there he goes ... I would chase him for a bit, but that'd scare him even more. Naw, it's best just to wait for a bit and hope he'll come back." — what Steve Irwin, the Crocodile Hunter, might say Sorry Steve, but chances of him coming back are slim to none. Once you scare off the elusive maleus sexus, he's probably gone for good, unless he just wants to eat you. Of course I'm talking about the male sex, and the cage symbolizes the relationships many women — by women I mean college-aged girls — try to have with them. In fact, journalist Dave Barry composed an entire book based around the piece of advice to "never assume a guy understands he has a relationship with you." Just like when you tell a dog it has fleas, there is no scientific way it will ever register in his brain. If you ever look at a Cosmopolitan or Glamour, there will inevitably be at least one article on "How to Figure out Your Man," or "His Bedtime Body Language." Not that those aren't interesting to read, but I guarantee that when you open a Maxim there won't be any "How to De-Code Her Shaving Habits"-type articles. I actually enjoy Maxim more than Cosmo, mostly because I don't care about clothes too expensive for me to buy, and since I don't plan on being married for another 10 years, I don't care about how to find "The One" in 12 easy steps. I find it relatively humorous that there is so much literature, advice columns and television shows aimed at women trying to figure out guys, and few aimed at males trying to understand women. Why is that, do you suppose? Is it most men prefer to get all their advice on women from their local priest, all men already have women completely figured out or men pretty much know they will never figure women out and correctly assume that watching television or playing X-box is a better waste of time? Not that I have any problem with 18 and 19 year-olds in love; I have several friends well on their way to the altar. They have my full support, especially in 10 years when they're heading to divorce court. The thing I find ridiculous is those few girls that desperately want to find a special someone, then head out to the bars wearing practically porno attire, and after spending a romantic, intimate evening with "the perfect guy" are actually offended and upset when he doesn't ever call. Forget "He's Just Not That Into You," these girls need to buy the book, "He's Just Into Getting Ass." Why should we take the tips advised in fashion magazines anyway? I find it hard to believe that "The Ten Things He Looks For in A Girlfriend" applies to every different type of man out there, and if you try to refine your pickup moves or change how coy your smile is, aren't you compromising yourself anyway? Screw the rules and act however un-feminine or stupid you want. Flirt with guys in whatever way you want and don't feel obligated to compete in the "Who Can Make Their Boobs Look Biggest" competition — not that it isn't fun to do for kicks sometimes. When you dress up and lather on the makeup, make sure you're doing it for you and not to see how many guys you can get to stare at your ass — not that that isn't fun to do for kicks sometimes either.

Junior center fielder Matt Baty lifted a fly ball that Texas sophomore left fielder Carson Kainer lost in the sun. That twist of fate led to two more runs for the Jayhawks, giving them a 4-1 lead that they would not relinquish. Land earned his fifth victory of the season, and Texas sophomore right-hander Kyle McCullock took the loss. Junior closer Don Czyz earned the save. "I felt the better than I've ever felt in my whole life," Land said. "I had a little extra juice on my fusball, and I just felt awesome." Land thanked the Kansas offense for its clutch hitting. "It was huge," Land said of the run support. "It gives you so much confidence on the mound when you've got a lead." Saturday's game was a pitcher's duel all the way through. Senior Mike Zagurski turned in one of his best outings of the season as he shut down Texas hitters in 7 1/3 innings of work. He allowed just one unearned run and struck out six Longhorns en route to a 2-1 Jayhawk victory. He needed every ounce of that effort, however, as Texas sophomore Randy Boone was nearly as impressive. Boone gave up two runs in 7/13 innings but ended up on the short end, taking the loss. After Texas grabbed an early lead, Kansas responded behind one of the usual suspects. With two out in the fourth inning, Schweitzer hit his second homer in as many games and evened the score, 1-1. That hit broke the Kansas hitting streak record. In the sixth, freshman third baseman Erik Morrison broke the deadlock with a RBI single, scoring senior catcher Sean Richardson. The Jayhawks would have to wait until Sunday morning, however, to finish the job. Thunderstorms halted the proceedings in the bottom of the eighth inning, and the game was picked up at 11 a.m. yesterday. Czyz closed out the Longhorns, once play resumed, for his 10th save of the season and second of the weekend. He was aided by a spectacular catch in center field by Baty that saved at least one runs in the ninth inning. "That's one of the best catches I've seen with the game on the line." Price said. Czzy was not surprised that the ball ended in Baty's glove. Zagurski was thrilled with his dominating performance. the "bull" that "I had a feeling in my chest that he was going to catch that ball." Czyz said. "It was kind of a sigh of relief when he did catch it." "I felt great." Zagurski said. "I was able to get a lot of first-pitch strikes and keep them off balance. I don't think they were as comfortable as they would have liked." After a half-hour break, Texas looked determined to salvage the final game of the series. They opened the scoring in the first inning on a home run by senior shortstop Seth Johnston. They held a 2-0 lead in the second when Morrison drove in two runs with a single and tied the game. Texas regained the lead, 4-2, only to see the Jayhawks fight back one more time in the fifth inning. Richardson and Schweitzer set the table with a walk and a single, respectively. For Schweitzer, it extended the hitting streak to 23 games. Senior designated hitter Andy Scholl brought both men home with a double to left-center field. That was the last time Kansas would be close. Texas exploded for six runs in the sixth inning and blew the game wide open, eventually winning 16-5 in eight innings because of the Big 12's travel day run rule. Eight of nine Longhorn batters had at least one hit in the game. Senior reliever Clayton Stewart got the win and improved his record to 9-0 this season. Freshman Tyson Corley took the loss in relief of Quick and fell to 1-1. Despite the final game, Price was excited for his team and the program. program. "It was a disappointing way to end the weekend, but our goal was to win the weekend." Price said. "I was really pleased with competitive we were." He said the pitching was a big part of the success against a team like Texas. "Sean Land was good Friday night, and he allowed us to get to Quick and then close with Czyz." Price said. "Mike Zagurski was absolutely fabulous. Today, Kodiak Quick's tied when he leaves the ball game after helping us win Friday night."

Kansas moved up three spots in the conference standings during the weekend and is tied for sixth place with Texas Tech. With only six games remaining on the league schedule, the Jayhawks have put themselves in position to make the conference tournament. "I think we needed to win two out of three to get that to happen." Price said. "It puts us in the position to control our own destiny." Baty said the Jayhawks were hitting their stride at the right time. "I'm feeling really good about where we're at right now," Baty said. "We're playing our best baseball right now, and this is when you want to play your best baseball." Kansas will get back on the field Wednesday night in Springfield, Mo., against Southwest Missouri State. The game is a make-up of a previous rainout. The Bears won the only other meeting between the two teams earlier this year in Lawrence. —Edited by Laura Francoviglia KANSAS KANSAS 5, TEXAS 2 Texas (39-11) AB R B H RBI Nick Peoplels, rf 4 1 1 0 Drew Stubbs, cf 3 0 1 0 Sath Johnston, ss 4 0 1 1 Will Crouch, dh 4 0 0 0 Taylor Teagarden, c 4 0 0 0 Carson Kainer, lf 3 0 0 0 Chance Wheeless, 1b 3 0 1 0 David Maroul, 3b 2 1 0 0 Robby Hudson, 2b 2 0 1 0 Totals 29 2 5 1 KANSAS 2, TEXAS 1 Kansas (32-21) AB R H RBI Matt Baty, cf 4 1 2 0 Ritchie Price, ss 4 0 2 0 A.J.

He should like this one. Lawrence's team, The Rapscallions, outlasted 17 other teams to take the intramural 4-on-4 flag football championship Saturday evening with a 39-26 victory over Beta Black. Beta Black, consisting of members of Beta Theta Pi, never made the game close. The action started at 11 a.m. Saturday. By 6 p.m., only four teams remained. Beta Black knocked off J.R.'s Bail Bondsmen 41-20, then the Rapscallions crushed Extreme 41-18 to punch their ticket to the title game. With a thunderstorm looming, the teams hurried into the championship game. Beta Black won the coin toss, and chose to play with the wind in the second half. With the wind and the ball, the Rapscallions wasted no time going to work. Facing a third and final down on their opening drive, quarterback James Lawrence threw a pass to Jamie Huston, Lawrence freshman, for the touchdown. "Our receivers are so good that I just threw it to them and they caught it," Lawrence, Lawrence freshman, said. Huston turned around and contributed defensively. With pressure being applied to the quarterback, Huston intercepted a wild pass. The next drive was more of the same for the Rapscallions. This time the touchdown pass went to Jacob Rahmeier, Lawrence freshman. The teams took different defensive strategies. The Rapscallions played man-to-man with the three receivers while the fourth man blitzed the quarterback. Beta Black kept all four defenders back in a zone. "Our first game, the team decided to blitz us and we just got by them and got the first down every time," quarterback James Lawrence said. As halftime approached, the teams provided more theatrics. Beta Black took the ball with 20 seconds remaining. Quarterback Chris Hermreck, Ottawa junior, scrambled to the sideline, where he saw Rhodes Kelley, St. Louis freshman, open. Kelley towed the sideline while making the catch, which brought the team within seven points of the lead. Six seconds later, however, Huston responded with his second touchdown catch of the game, also on a pass that went the length of the field. Coming out of halftime, James Lawrence intercepted the ball after the quarterback was Beta Black: Chris Hermreck, Ottawa junior Rhodes Kelley, St. Louis freshman Jeff Larkin, Garden City junior Trevor Blattner, Cape Girardeau, Mo., junior 4-ON-4 FLAG FOOTBALL CHAMPIONSHIP Matt Ferguson, Leawood junior Rapscallions: Jamie Huston, Lawrence freshman Josh Lawrence, Lawrence freshman James Lawrence, Lawrence freshman Andy Stiles, Lawrence freshman Jacob Rahmeier, Lawrence freshman forced to throw while scrambling. The Rapscallions' next touchdown put the team up 33-13 with just minutes remaining in the game. The next three possessions resulted in touchdowns as well, and the Rapscallions ran out the clock in style, using a play with three laterals to elude tacklers. Josh Lawrence has a different idea for next year's tournament. "If this were tackle football, we still would have dominated," he said. Winning the championship next year would also be yet another occasion to see "rapscallion" in the paper. —Edited by Jesse Truesdale Colaianni CONTINUED FROM PAGE 12A Never, in his three seasons at Kansas, has the team had such a big weekend. These guys can play with anyone in the country, and if they continue to be as hot as they are right now, they could make significant damage in the Big 12 Tournament. This weekend has made qualifying for the Big 12 tournament much more likely; the expectations are certainly much higher now. If this team stumbles down the stretch — and after this weekend's performance that appears unlikely — it would be a huge disappointment. The Jayhawks need to stay focused, as they will play the Missouri Tigers next weekend, and Mizzou has had a great season thus far. Texas is not the same team that is was a year ago, when it finished second in the College World Series. But the exposure that this weekend brought to Hoglund Ballpark will have much bigger ramifications. Having people from throughout the country watch the games and see the amazing performance that the Jayhawks put on this week was wonderful, and it should do wonders for Price as he recruits not only in Kansas but throughout the country. In addition to the new scoreboard, an indoor batting facility is nearing completion. These series victories will help Price get the facilities he needs to compete with warmer weather teams in the conference. The confidence boost from this weekend should help the Jayhawks keep their winning ways. If the pitching staff is able to keep up its strong performance the hitting will take care of itself. Price has done a terrific job with this club and has kept them focused all season. Even when the Jayhawks were struggling in their first few conference series. Price was still able to keep the team going in the right direction. Now the team is winning when it needs the victories most. - Colaianni is a McLean, Va., sophomore in journalism and political science. Move up CONTINUED FROM PAGE 12A With the sweep, the Jayhawks have their seventh 30-victory season during coach Tracy Bunge's nine-year tenure, going 30-20 overall and 9-8 in the conference. "We took care of business this weekend." Bunge said. On Saturday, the Kansas offense exploded with 16 hits, a season high. Junior shortstop Destiny Frankenstein led the offense with four hits on Saturday. She said everyone saw the zone and attacked at the plate. Kansas trailed Iowa State 2-0 after the first inning. ISU first baseman Jessica Quade put the Cyclones on the board early with a two-run home run. Freshman pitcher Christina Ross started for the Jayhawks, allowing five hits and one walk but striking two in 2.1 innings. Junior pitcher Serena Settlemier finished the game in relief and allowed no walks. She allowed five hits, but struck out five. picking up the victory. Yesterday, Kansas fell behind Iowa State early in the game as well. The Cyclones scored two runs in the first inning, but Frankenstein ignited the offense With the sweep, the Jayhawks have their seventh 30-victory season during coach Tracy Bunge's nine-year tenure, going 30-20 overall and 9-8 in the conference conference in the second inning with a solo home run that pulled the Jayhawks within one. Kansas tied the game later that inning when junior third baseman Nettie Fierros scored. The Jayhawks scored runs in the fourth and fifth inning to secure the victory. Ross earned the victory for the Jayhawks, throwing 4.1 innings, allowing two runs and five hits and striking out two. Settlemier relieved Ross to finish the game. She got the next eight batters out and helped Kansas win its 30th game. She allowed no hits and no runs while striking out three.

Pearson/Douthart scholarship halls defeated the Destroyers 13-0 last night at the Shenk Complex, 23rd and Iowa streets. "We had played against them before," Pearson's Shawn Atkinson, Hutchinson junior, said, "So we knew what to expect coming in." After scoring on the opening possession, Pearson/Douthart intercepted a pass right on the goal line, then passed the disc in for score number two. The whole team helped out with the scoring. Jason Mitchell caught two of those and threw another. Four different players caught four of the first five touchdowns. Pearson/Douthart didn't let up for the remainder of the half. It went into the break with an 11-0 advantage. He said the team knew it would win the game after the first five points. "We go for the home runs a little bit more than other teams." Mitchell, Independence junior, said. The team scored in every conceivable fashion. Mitchell found Michaela Sakumura, Lawrence freshman, for the ninth point on a short pass.

On defense, the team rarely started in poor field position because of interceptions and knocked-down passes. It was a bigger surprise when the team was unable to score than when it did.

Despite a few close calls, the team was never able to land a pass in the end zone, and it finished the game scoreless. Atkinson passed it to Mitchell, his roommate, for the team's 13th and final point. Frisbee CONTINUED FROM PAGE 12A In a span of four minutes, 25 seconds, the team scored four unanswered points. Jackson and Joe Nickels led the charge with a string of back-and-forth catches while moving downfield. Toward the end of the run, the team's communication was so good it looked like they were executing a rehearsed pattern each time down field. On defense, the team adjusted their strategy depending on the wind. "We played a zone defense upwind, and went man-to-man downwind," Nickels, Elgin, Ill. junior, said. "And we kept the tall guys in the back." The strategy paid off, and the Pinkies rarely saw a scoring opportunity. With six minutes to play in the opening half, the Pinkies began to chip away at the six-point deficit. They put up two points before the Blunts regrouped. On the Blunts' next trip downfield they had the disc in the corner, just a few yards away from the touchdown. - Edited by Azita Tafreshi Instead of trying to throw it in against the Pinkies defense, they used a series of four passes to gradually move the disc to the other side of the field, each time moving closer to the line, until they had the touchdown. Going into halftime, the Blunts enjoyed a commanding 8-2 lead. The Pinkies looked sharp coming out of the break., but were unable to turn their opportunities into points. For the first six minutes of the half, the Blunts were unable to advance the disc past midfield. Despite these opportunities, the Pinkies did not score until 9:15 into the half. From there, the teams played a fairly even back-and-forth game for the remaining time. While it was a tightly contested game, it lacked the structure of a league game. "It's a lot more relaxed out here," Nickels said, "There aren't a lot of calls made." With just two seconds remaining, the Pinkies found themselves down 11-5, and had the Instead of ending the game, they chose to call time-out and set up the long pass. disc in their own end zone. It worked, and fans of both teams cheered the final score as time ran out. The teams exchanged friend- y handshakes after the game, and ioked about the outcome. and joker too. It may not have been a league game, but the Fighting Blunts came out in midseason form to claim the championship.

SPORTS MONDAY, MAY 9, 2005 PAGE 12A WWW.KANSAN.COM BASEBALL SCHWEITZER 8 KANSAS KANSAS Rylan Howe/KANSAN Schweitzer sets record for hitting streak Junior first baseman Jared Schweitzer celebrates with junior center fielder Matt Baty and junior left fielder A.J. Van Slyke after scoring a run during the fifth inning yesterday at Hoglund Ballpark. Schweitzer singled in the inning to extend his school-record hitting streak to 23 games. Kansas won the series against Texas 2-1. BY ALISSA BAUER abauer@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER As Kansas (33-22, 8-12 Big 12 Conference) was winning its series against No. 3 Texas (39-11, 14-9 Big 12) this weekend, one Jayhawk had a particularly successful weekend. . Junior first baseman Jared Schweitzer slugged home runs in games one and two to first tie and then to set a Kansas hitting streak record. In game three, Schweitzer extended his record to 23 games. "It's an amazing streak. I don't think he's had a cheap hit in the 23 Schweitzer games," coach Ritch Price said. "He's had a solid base hit in every ball game. He's a very good offensive player." Ryan Baty, who graduated last spring after a four-year career as a Jayhawk, previously held the record. Matt Tribble, another 2004 graduate, held the record in 2003 with a 20 game streak. "Jared's a great player and a good friend," Ryan Baty said. "He's a great and natural, pure hitter. He deserves it." Entering the weekend, Schweitzer needed a hit in the first two games to break the record. His solo shot in game one, along with a 2-4 effort in game two made him the new record holder. A 2-3 game three makes Schweitzer's streak that much more impressive. Baty, older brother of junior outfielder Matt Baty, set the record at 21 games last season. In the final 21 games of 2004, Ryan Baty came up with a hit. Because of that, Baty said his streak never technically ended., but he was still happy for Schweitzer. Tying the streak with a single in his first at-bat in game one, Schweitzer broke the record in his second at-bat of game two with his sixth homer of the season. "What's odd is when Tribble broke the hit streak record, and when I broke the hit streak record and now Jared, the game that we did it was all on home runs." Baty said. "Isn't that wild?" Schweitzer, who continues to claim that the secret to the streak lies in the power of his uncut hair, said that breaking the streak against Texas made the milestone a little sweeter. Although hit streaks and records are prestigious, Baty said that they were made to be broken, and he is happy that his was. He said the improvement of the program is more important than individual records. "If they're not breaking records in this program — the records I set and the records in the past — that means our program isn't taking that next step," Baty said. Although his streak marks the third time the record has been broken in as many years, Schweitzer said he realized the difficulty in what he is accomplishing. "Tribble and Baty are two good hitters, so I don't think it makes it any less special. It's nice." Schweitzer said. Schweitzer said the series victory against Texas was much more important than what he accomplished individually. "I'd take wins over Texas any day," Schweitzer said. "If someone would've told me that I would go 0-for the weekend but we would've taken two of three from Texas, I would've taken it easily." "I bet he finishes out the rest of the year with it," Baty said. "I think he's seeing the ball that well right now. We need it. If we're going to make the regional we need Jared to be hot the rest of the year." As one of the weekend's offensive leaders, Schweitzer's 5-11 effort this weekend helped propel the Jayhawks 2-1 series victory, their first against the Longhorns since 1996. Baty is rooting for both the Jayhawks and Schweitzer, as he said he expected the streak to hold out.

Rachel Seymour/KANSAN Fighting Blunts light up Frisbee championship BY MICHAEL PHILLIPS mphillips@kansan.com MKANAN SPORTSWRIETER For B-team members of the University of Kansas' club ultimate Frisbee team, the HorrorZontals, it would have been a disappointment if they hadn't won school bragging rights. Their intramural team, named the Fighting Blunts for the tournament; defeated the Pinkies 11-6 in the men's championship game last night. The Pinkies made it to the finals after an overtime victory against Vanguard of the Proletariat, the Stephenson Hall team, earlier in the day. The Blunts expected to see the Pinkies in the finals. "They are definitely one of the best teams out there," Allan Jackson, Robinson junior, said. The Blunts came out prepared to make a statement. On the opening possession of the game, Casey Aull, Libertyville, Ill., freshman, caught a touchdown pass and put the team in the lead. After that, the game settled into a lull for a few minutes, until the Blunts surged ahead for good.

With two conference series left to go, the Jayhawks are red hot. Texas is a top-10 team, and though the Jayhawks' powerful bats have led the way all year, it was pitching during the weekend that helped Kansas top Texas. Sophomore Sean Land was spectacular on Friday, as he went five innings and gave up just one earned run. The Jayhawks showed the nation this weekend that there's a new team to consider when mentioning strong teams in the conference. The team's pitching and defense have been problems this season, but in the first two games of the series, the pitching was phenomenal as Kansas allowed just three runs in two games. It was clear that Price simply wanted to get a victory on Friday, Coach Ritch Price's decision to bring in Sunday starter Kodiak Quick on Friday night in relief was a great decision. and with the team's best pitcher on the mound, it gave him a great opportunity to defeat a strong Texas team. Quick pitched two perfect innings. Price's risky decision paid off, and Quick still pitched yesterday. Despite being routed yesterday afternoon, the Jayhawks should still look at this weekend as the highlight of the season and probably the highlight of Price's ten are here at Kansas.

An 18-year-old female KU student was waiting for a ride home at about 2:30 a.m. in the parking lot on the west side of GSP-Corbin when a white male approached her, grabbed her and pushed her to the ground, according to a media release from the Safety Office. "She was just standing there, talking to a friend on her cell phone when someone came up behind her and pushed her down," said Capt. Schuyler Bailey, spokesman for the Safety Office. The woman hit the man in the face and kneed him in the groin, and then the man hit the woman in the face and left the area, according to the release. Bailey said the reason for the attack was unknown. The woman called the Safety Office immediately after the attack, he said. The woman is not a resident of GSP-Corbin, Bailey said. The suspect is described as a white male with brown hair, about 5 feet 11 inches tall, weighing about 190 pounds. He was wearing a black, long-sleeve T-shirt, black pants and black gloves, according to the release. That incident resulted in a car pursuit, which ended at 12th and Indiana streets. In September 2004, a KU student had her car stolen at gunpoint in the parking lot next to GSP-Corbin. The male suspect approached the woman after she parked her car and demanded her book bag and keys. This is the third incident in GSP parking lots since February 2004, according to Safety Office records. As she left the scene, a shot In February 2004, a female KU student was threatened at knifepoint in the lower level of the GSP-Corbin parking garage. In that case, the suspect, described as a Hispanic male, had followed her in his vehicle from McCollum Hall to the parking garage.

Two KU women share their stories of unreported rape. Angela and Anne have the same secret. Both KU women were raped by men they knew. BY AMANDA O'TOOLE atoole@kansan.com SENIOR STAFF WRITER No physical scars remain, but the guilt and trauma of the rapes still linger. Out of about 100 KU women who responded to a University Daily Kansan survey, more than 40 said they knew someone who had been raped. Out of those, 10 responded they were raped. Only two reported rapes to police. Both tried to forget that it happened. Both tried to trick themselves into believing it was their fault. Neither of the women, who asked that their last names not be used, reported it to police. Angela and Anne are two of many silent victims who are raped worldwide each year. Nationally, only one in every three rapes and sexual assaults will ever be re ported to police, according to the Rape Abuse and Incest National Network. According to local rape crisis counselors, victims like Angela and Anne don't report being raped because of fear — fear of being ostracized in their In the last year in Lawrence, about 180 women sought attention at the GaDuGi SafeCenter, a local rape crisis center, most dealing with recent attacks. However, Lawrence police and KU's Public Safety Office say about 55 raps were reported within the past year. WHERE TO GET HELP The following are places in Lawrence that offer counseling and other services for sexual assault victims: Counseling and Psychological Services: 864-2277 Lawrence Memorial Hospital 528-796-4130 LAWRENCE MEMORIAL HOSPITAL - Bert Nash Community Mental Health Center; 200 Maine St., Suite A, 785-843 9192 - ♦ GaDuGI SafeCenter: 2518 Ridge Ct.

The friend she thought she knew Angela, an Overland Park junior, doesn't remember a lot of details from the night she was raped. It was a typical Friday night her freshman year. The party was like dozens of others with the same people she'd partied with before. They were people she knew and trusted. A man she'd known since high school had gotten her drinks. She was drinking a strawberry daiquiri. She didn't have many — maybe two. Looking back, Angela has come to the conclusion she was drugged. Her limbs became almost numb and she found it hard to form consonants. Beginning to feel sick, the man helped her to the bathroom. He held her hair and took care of her. It was a sweet gesture, Angela said. She remembers trying to stop him from touching her and trying to yell for help. He laid her down on the yellow bathroom tile and raped her, telling her to shut up when voices and footsteps passed the door. According to the National Crime Victimization Survey, about 60 percent of rape victims knew their attacker — most often the rapist was a friend or acquaintance.

Around 6:30 p.m., a KU Public Safety officer arrived at GSP-Corbin in response to a report of a female KU student having a seizure, according to a KU Public Safety Office report. When he arrived, he saw a group of bystanders gathered around a 19-year-old female KU student lying face down and unresponsive in front of GSP-Corbin. He saw another 19-year-old woman, who was incoherent, sitting on a bench next to the first woman, according to the report. The officer saw that one of the women had vomited on the sidewalk. A witness told the officer it was the incoherent female who had vomited. At the scene, one witness told the officer that the two women had used "all kinds of drugs in the past," according to the report. One witness told the officer that the two women had used "all kinds of drugs in the past," according to the report. Lawrence-Douglas County Fire Medical arrived at the scene and transported both women to Lawrence Memorial Hospital for treatment of a drug overdose, according to the report. Once the women left the scene, the officer spoke with Kimberly Shears, Rochester, N.Y. graduate student and assistant complex director for GSP-Corbin. She told the officer that an unidentified student observed the two females doing drugs in one of their rooms. Shears later told the officer that the drug was GHB. A plastic baggie and a blue plastic cup with clear liquid in it were taken from one of the women's rooms, according to the report.

PAGE 1B NATION Air Force wearing thin from intensive service Wear and tear on their specialized helicopters and sirplanes is mounting, as is the human toll in lives lost and families separated. HURLBURT FIELD, Flia. — In the shadow of their better-known Army and Navy counterparts, Air Force commandoos have been sent into Iraq and Afghanistan so frequently that strains are showing. At their Hurlburt Field headquarters on Santa Rosa Sound, air commandos point with pride to the furious pace of their service in the war on terror since the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks. "We are going just full throttle" to get air commandos trained, said Col. Thomas Hull, vice director of operations for Air Force Special Operations Command. "We're wearing 'em down," says Lt. Col. Don Timpson of the 19th Special Operations Squadron, which trains air crews. He was referring to pilots who fly airlifters and other specialized airplanes and helicopters that require extensive training. One unit, the 8th Special Operations Squadron, was the most-deployed squadron in the entire active-duty Air Force in 2002 and 2003. It files the MC-130E Combat Talon I, now in its fifth decade of use to deliver and retrieve forces behind enemy lines.

Pi Beta Phi sorority, 1612 W. 15th St., gave the most donations last year. Stewart said she made trips to the chapter every day during finals last year. The sorority's donations box was full every time. "There were dumpsters that were full all over town at the end of the year, and it seemed wasteful," Stewart said. "So why not organize recycling?" The Kaw Bioregional Council, a community sustainability and recycling organization, will collect donations from the greek community from Friday until commencement. Past donations ranged from clothing to furniture to wigs, said Mary Ann Stewart, co-organizer of the annual clothing drive. Even items such as electronic car keys, food, bedding and refrigerators have been donated, Stewart said. The council has organized recycling at the end of the year with the greek community for five years. Sororities and fraternities that wanted to participate received a box for their donations. About one-third of the greek community has participated in years past, Stewart said. "In a house full of girls, it's easy to find extra clothing," Katy Ibsen, Pi Beta Phi president, said. Many of the Pi Beta Phi women donate because the food and bedding goes toward the Women's Transitional Care Center, 2518 Ridge Court, the Boulder, Colo. junior said. The center is a refuge for battered women and their children. Money will go toward survivors of domestic violence. The center houses 19 survivors, said Shay O'Brien, director of the volunteer program for the center. "Any time someone donates, it's wonderful because we don't have a lot of money." O'Brien said. The council has collected donations from Pi Beta Phi in the past, Ibsen said. She said that it would have been beneficial to collect donations earlier in the year as well because some members have moved out by stop day. But she said that many of the members still around gave what they could. "When they realize it is for other women that have been hurt, it makes it easier to donate," Ibsen said. "Part of our mission statement is forming women's morals in their daily lives, and Women's Transitional Care falls under that." Clothing will be cleaned, sorted and sold at a garage sale in west Lawrence. The council raised $500 to $600 from the garage sale last year. Stewart said. The money will go toward the fall and spring bioregional conference. Residence halls began donating to KU Recycling in 2001, said Jeff Severin, environmental services manager. Because the greeks seemed to be the second largest community on campus, the council began accepting donations from them, Stewart said. The council has collected donations at the University since 1990, Stewart said. It used to be called "Dorm Pickup," when the council collected donations from the residence halls on campus. Edited by Kendall Dix COMMUNITY SERVICE Campus joins book drive BY DANI LITT dlitti@kansan.com kANSIN WRITE WRITER BOOK DRIVE DON'T THROW YOUR BOOKS AWAY! DONATE YOUR USED BOOKS HERE! Brenna Whisney always enjoyed community service. In fact, the Edina, Minn., sophomore lettered in it during her junior and senior years of high school. This week, she has expanded her services to help an entire continent. Jessica Stephanie Farley/KANSAN Brenna Whisney, Edina, Minn., sophomore, has started a book drive at the University of Kansas this week for Books for Africa, a non-profit organization. The University is one of 200 colleges and universities to participate in the drive. Textbooks that cannot be bought back can be donated. With the help of Alpha Phi Omega fraternity, Whisney has coordinated a book drive for Books for Africa, a non-profit organization. The University of Kansas is one of 200 college campuses to participate in a textbook drive for the organization this semester. Whisney stumbled across the idea in an article she read about volunteers who delivered the donated books to Africa. After learning that her two best friends had donated books at their campuses, Marquette University and Macalester College, she decided to bring the drive to Lawrence. Students are encouraged to donate any textbooks that the bookstores cannot buy back due to edition or class changes. "There are 25,000 students at KU and if half donated a book, that's still a lot of books," she said. "It just seemed logical to do it at KU." Lab manuals, handbooks or other workbooks that contain hand-written notes in them cannot be donated. Better World Books, an organization partnered with Books for Africa, collects the books and sells as many as possible to raise money for shipping, boxes and advertisements. "I think it's like we have a social responsibility to each other," Whisney said. "If I have a book I'm not using, why not try to find a place that someone else can use it?" The loftover books are then donat ed to 23 different African countries. Frank Lynn, former Peace Corps volunteer, already has collected two thousand books for Zambia, the country he served in during his time in the Corps. He decided to donate them to Whisney's drive for Books for Africa because he had been unable to send them due to shipping costs. Book drive boxes have been placed in fraternity and sorority houses, scholarship halls, at the Student Involvement and Leadership Center and at the Jayhawk Bookstore. The drive will continue through May 20. Any books collected in the recycling bins at the residence halls or at the Jayhawker Towers also will be donated to the collection. Whisney plans to volunteer for Books for Africa this summer. In the future, she said she hoped to be able to travel to Africa and personally deliver the books. Edited by Ross Fitch ACCIDENT Bus crash kills two in Missouri BY BILL DRAPER THE ASSOCIATED PRESS LIBERTY. Mo. — A school bus carrying 53 elementary school children crashed into two vehicles at a busy Liberty intersection yesterday morning, killing two people in the vehicles and sending at least three children to area hospitals with life-threatening injuries. Liberty Police Chief Craig Knouse said police didn't know why the southbound bus, which was trying to turn west, slammed into the two eastbound vehicles, which were stopped next to each other while waiting for a stoplight to change in the community about 15 miles north of Kansas City. He said the bus' normal route was to continue south on 291 to Ridgeview. BY BILL DISPER THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Knouse identified the victims as David Gleason, Liberty, and David Sandweiss, whose hometown was not immediately available. Their ages were not released. They were the only people in the vehicles. Police said 23 students were taken to three area hospitals with injuries, and the other 15 were released to their parents. "Obviously it's a worst nightmare, Laura Fitzmaurice, head of the emergency department at Children's Mercy Hospital in Kansas City, said 10 children were taken there, including two in critical condition and five hospitalized in serious condition. basically," Liberty School Superintendent Scott Taveau said. "This is a community that cares about kids and cares about education. This is a tragedy for this community." Cinderella's bus driver, whose name was not released, was being treated at a hospital yesterday afternoon. Taveau said the driver was a seven-year veteran driver who had "an impeccable record." He also defended the district's bus safety record. He said there had been only minor school bus bender-benders in the six years he had led the district. At Liberty Hospital, spokeswoman Denise Seley said one child underwent emergency surgery and another three had been airlifted from there to Children's Mercy. The children, who ranged in age from 6-11, suffered head injuries, cuts, scrapes, broken bones and neck injuries, she said. Immediately after the crash, dozens of workers at nearby businesses rushed to the scene to help the children off the bus. "Many people from the community in the area simply were doing everything they possibly could to comfort the children," Knouse said. "It's something that made you feel so good in such a bad situation." "Our bus drivers, we have a great safety record, accident free," Tavaau said. "I would put our school bus drivers against any school bus drivers in the state." "We were standing outside on a break when we heard a loud boom and saw a big cloud of dust," said Vickie Whattoff, one of about 20 Hy-Vee workers who responded. "We saw that it was a bus and ran over and started helping kids out." She said many of the children on the bus, which was carrying kindergarteners through fifth-graders, were bleeding and crying for their parents. "One little boy had his teeth knocked out and he asked me if he was going to be deformed," Whattoff said, her voice quivering as she struggled with her emotions.

Wittelson, who was not part of the research team, said the findings clearly showed a biological involvement in sexual orientation.

Allies' efforts honored history remembered BY STEVE GUTTERMAN THE ASSOCIATED PRESS MOSCOW — Leaders of the victors and the vanquished united yesterday to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the Allied victory over Nazi Germany, with Russian President Vladimir Putin playing host to President Bush and dozens of others in a Red Square celebration replete with goose-stepping soldiers, a hammer-and-sickle flag and other symbols of the Soviet era. At a lavish military parade, Putin evoked the alliance that brought victory but he also stressed the Soviets' huge sacrifice in defeating Adolf Hitler's Germany. Putin described May 9,1945 — commemorated in Russia as Victory Day — as "a day of victory of good over evil, freedom over tyranny." "I bow low before all veterans of the Great Patriotic War," he said, using Russia's name for World War II, which killed an estimated 27 million Soviets during nearly four years of bitter fighting after the Nazi invasion of 1941. Beneath overcast skies, the parade began with four goose-stepping soldiers in ceremonial gold-embroidered uniforms carrying a replica of the red hammer-and-cycle banner unfurled atop the Reichstag in Berlin after the building was seized by Soviet troops a week before the Nazi surrender. Veterans adorned with gleaming medals rode by in green trucks. Amid strict security that closed the heart of Moscow to ordinary citizens, Putin watched the parade from a podium in front of Lenin's tomb. On the Kremlin wall, the word "victory" was emblazoned in several languages, including those of the war's losers. Soldiers in modern and World War II-era uniforms — infantrymen with red flags topped by Soviet insignia, tank troopers with black padded helmets — marched in tight formation, the slap of their boots echoing across the cobblestones. Jets streamed smoke in the Russian flag's white, blue and red colors above the square after Putin's speech. While Russians have often complained that the Soviets' wartime role is underrated in the West, Putin said that "we have never divided the victory between ours and theirs, and we will always remember the help of the Allies," listing the United States, Britain, France and those who fought fascism in Germany and Italy. "Today we pay tribute to the courage of all Europeans who countered Nazism," Putin said. However, he added, "the most cruel and decisive events unfolded on the territory of the Soviet Union." Listing battles such as Stalingrad, Kursk and the siege of Leningrad — where he was born in 1952 — Putin said that "the Red Army put a victorious end to the war with the liberation of Europe and the battle for Berlin."

Overdose It's believed that both women were responsible for their condition, Bailey said. Neither of them have been arrested for possession of a controlled substance. Bailey said. The incoherent woman was released from Lawrence Memorial Hospital later that day. The other woman was released the next day, said Belinda Rehmer, a spokeswoman for Lawrence Memorial Hospital. It is against student housing policy to comment on a particular situation, according to Ken Stoner, director of student housing. No one has been evicted from GSP-Corbin in the last month, he said. A meeting is usually scheduled within a 24-hour period for residents who get caught with a controlled substance. Stoner said. He said students caught with drugs can face expulsion depending on several things, including recommendations from medical staff, family arrangements and circumstances that the department knows about, but that may not be generally known. The status of the residents in student housing is dealt with on an individual basis, Stoner said. - Edited by John Scheirman ON THE RECORD ♦ A 20-year-old KU student reported to Lawrence police his license plate stolen between 11:30 p.m. May 5 and 12 a.m. May 6 from the 1300 block of Louisiana Street.

Some Lawrence experts who work with victims on a daily basis say some victims would rather let their rapist walk free than undergo tests and investigations. Sexual assault nurse Lauren Doerfler said it was important women seek medical attention after an assault. Reports can be filed to the Lawrence Police Department anonymously, and women can always decide not to file charges against their attacker. The following is a summary of what consists of completing a standard rape kit. - Women are first examined by a triage nurse to make sure they're breathing normally and to assess there is not a medical emergency A nurse in the emergency room calls the Lawrence Police Department. Next, a representative of GaDuGi SafeCenter is called. "They can be a problem solver, Doerfler said. "Sometimes it's hard to make some big decisions." SafeCenter representatives can field questions from women and also set up initial contact for counseling if she chooses to participate in GaDuGi's programs. programa ◆ The sexual assault nurse will go with the patient into a private room where he or she will ask a variety of questions to make sure the woman's story is documented. The sexual assault nurse will then proceed in evidence collection, which includes taking samples from several key areas of the body. "It's very black and white for the nurse," Doerfler said. Following is a list of samples a nurse would take: 30 to 50 hairs from all over the head Mouth is swabbed if there was oral penetration - Pubic hairs are combed through for evidence 30 to 50 pubic hairs are plucked. Dorffler said the likelihood of evidence from this sample is fairly high A urine pregnancy test is administered in order to determine whether it's safe to give patients medicine to counter any possible STDs. Medicine is given to patients for free - Swab samples from the rectum - Swab samples from the vaginal wall and cervix Patients are offered the morning after pill, which is taken in two doses ♦ Finally, the sexual assault nurse will collect the patients clothes and give her fresh clothes to wear home More than 60 percent of rape victims know their attacker, according to Rape Abuse and Incest National Network. In the last five years 10 rapes have been reported to the KU Public Safety Office. Seven women cited the rapist was a friend or acquaintance. Doerfler said it's important that women don't shower after the rape in order to protect evidence. If there are any other items that may have evidence on them, or if you change clothes, Doerfler cautions to keep items in a paper bag. Condensation would form on the inside of plastic bags and jeopardize evidence. Source: Lawrence Memorial Hospital Survivors Kansas show similar findings. Of the 10 rapes reported to the KU Public Safety Office within the last five years, seven women knew the man they filed a report against. CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A Angela told a few friends who refused to believe the man would have raped her. "They told me I was dreaming or something, she said. "I convinced myself it didn't happen. I didn't want to make a fool of myself." believe the man. Her friends didn't want to hear it because it involved someone they knew and liked, she said." Her reaction wasn't unusual, said Jerilyn Smith, director of survivor services at GaDuGi SafeCenter. "It's really hard to tell on someone you know," she said. Victims often worry how it will change their relationship with other people as well. "They think, really, if I keep quiet about it, it may be easier." really, if I keep quiet Distract herself from emotions was easy. She acted like nothing happened and did everything she could to keep from thinking of that night. Internalizing the rape was not so easy. Hermain was to remove herself from that social circle, where she felt the people she called friends would rather lose Angela than her attacker hous would rather lose Angelia than her audience. "I was always more expendable than the guy who raped me," she said. T It was more than six months before Angela found someone who believed her story. She told her boyfriend at the time. No one will believe me her boyfriend at the were times she wondered if anyone would believe her. That fear is shared among many victims. The University Daily Kansan randomly surveyed about 300 female students. One of the 11 questions asked why victims did not report rape to police. Illustration by Courtney Kuhlen/KANSAN Five of the 10 women who responded they were raped said they didn't report it because they thought no one would believe them. Like many nights in Spain, the Norman, Okla., senior, met other students studying abroad. Two Irish men introduced themselves and gave Anne It was Anne's 22nd birthday. Studying abroad in Spain, she couldn't think of a better way to celebrate than drinking with friends. Anne knows some people don't believe her. While it is possible for victims to overcome the trauma of rape, rape crisis experts say it's important women know resources are available. Counseling often helps regain the sense of control, which is often lost after a sexual assault. birthday kisses on her cheeks By the end of the night she was separated from her old friends. She thought it best that she go home with Brian and find her way to her dorm in the morning. Depressed and feeling hurt about a failing relationship with her boyfriend, she didn't think it was so bad when she finally gave Brian a "real" kiss. The kisses were as abundant as the drinks they had consumed. She remembers taking off her shirt and the rest of her clothes. After Anne refused to have intercourse with him, they went to sleep. The next thing Anne remembers is waking up with Brian on top of her and inside of her. with Brian on top of her and inside of her. Not knowing what else to do, she waited until morning to go back to where she was staying. Relieved to see her, friends congratulated her on getting "birthday booty." She went along with the congratulatory highfives, but she knew her experience was not something to celebrate — she knew it was wrong "It was about 10 days before I realized that I'd been raped," Anne said. Pam Botts, Counseling and Psychological Services clinical director, said victims go through a time, usually immediately after the rape, where they want to minimize what happened. As in Anne's case, when alcohol is involved, women doubt themselves even more, Botts said. That's what Anne is dealing with now. "Alcohol impairs judgment and impairs your memory. It impairs recalling accurately what happened," she said. That's what Anne is dealing with. Anne has had friends tell her she wasn't raped. They call it a typical one night stand. But Anne knows better. Anne said her rape, like many others, fell into a confusing gray area. There are obvious cases, like the stranger that jumps out of the bushes, and it's a violent attack," she said. "But there are some instances when you say, 'I'm not OK with this' and it still happens. That's rape." In addition to overcoming emotional trauma, Anne has worried about her physical health, getting tested for sexually transmitted diseases every month or so. She was waiting on HIV results when interviewed for this article. And even though she allowed some physical interaction with Brian, she declined to have intercourse with him, she said. "I knew philosophically I hadn't given consent," she said. "You start thinking, did I give signals?" "You hear about rape in your women's studies class and your feminist class. I read the scary articles in Cosmo," Anne said. "I feel foolish and dirty. I'm tainted." Rape kits and police questions: "I think it's great when girls have the guts to go to the hospital and have the tests done," she said. "I wasn't emotionally strong enough." Looking back, Angela wishes she had gone to the police and made an attempt to bring justice to her rapist. Botts said some women, like Angela, experienced so much trauma from the initial attack that filing a report and undergoing a clinical rape kit could be too much. A rape kit is a set of medical tests that compiles physical evidence from the rape. "Sometimes people are physiologically in shock," she said.

More than 100 women responded to the survey. The following are the results based on some of the questionnaire women answered. The bushmen following answers said once how many people refused that option. Not all respondents answered every question. Photo Illustration by Courtney Kuhlen/KANSAN If the answer to the previous question was no, asked a reason. Local rape crisis experts said fear could be the main reason women don't report rapes to authorities. Some women are not emotionally stable enough to endure evasive medical tests and police interviews. What was the relationship between you and the attacker? - Other: 6 fortable thing. Sometimes people don't want to pursue legal action and they think if they tell anyone, they feel they will have to pursue that." Even if women file a report, they still have the option not to press charges. Lauren Doerfler, sexual assault nurse at Lawrence Memorial Hospital, said women are asked to make a police report either anonymously or with their names. Women can choose to stop at any time and can choose not to do any portion of the kit. The kit includes taking hair samples from the head and the pubic area, as well as vaginal and mouth swabs. Including interviews with sexual assault nurses and police, the process lasts three to four hours. "We want to make sure we get the story straight," Doerfler said. All women who complete the kit are given precautionary antibiotics in case of an STD and have the option for a free dosage of the morning after pill to prevent pregnancy. Doerfler said women should complete a rape kit regardless if they've decided to press charges. "After 72 hours after the rape, any source or trace of evidence is gone," Doerfler said. "If you change your mind, you still have the evidence." The whole truth and nothing but the truth For women who do report a rape to police, a number of seemingly daunting tasks lie ahead of them. If the rape is reported in a timely fashion, women will be asked to complete a rape kit and investigations will go beyond a simple police interview. "It's very common that when they get off the stand after testifying, they just lose it," Moseley said. Part of her job is comforting a witness afterward to be sure she knows she is not alone. Among the most difficult tasks is describing the rape to an open court, said Delores Moseley, coordinator of victim witnesses for the Douglas County District Attorney. Moseley knows what women fear about going to court, and says helping them endure the emotional hardships are a part of her job. She tries to dispel the myths women have about pressing charges against their attacker. "A lot of women have a preconceived notion of what testifying will be like," she said. Part of that comes from media coverage of high profile cases such as the rape prosecution against Los Angeles Lakers star Kobe Bryant. Moseley said "That case makes our job much more difficult," she said. A lot of things went wrong at that courthouse in Eagle County, Colo. For example, staff released the name of the accuser to the media, and she was harassed at her home and received at least two death threats. Eight months have passed since charges were dropped, yet a simple Google search with the keywords "Kobe Bryant accuser" produces more than 100,000 hits, most with her name and picture. As a result, more victims fear what will happen if their case goes to court, Moseley said. More than a year had passed before Angela thought of filing a report against her rapist. But, at that point, all evidence was gone. She said she knew it would become an issue of her rapist's word against hers. "It would've been pointless," she said. "I couldn't get any kind of support or proof. It would've been so hard to get a verdict in my favor." Anne felt the same way about reporting her rape to police in Spain. She was drunk that night and the rape wasn't forceful. She thought people would automatically think it was her fault for being in that situation with someone she just met. "It's just a twisted situation with too much alcohol and being with a person who seems trustworthy." Anne said. Moseley agreed that alcohol makes a case harder to prove in court. "We have to convince 12 people to come to a unanimous decision," she said. "Sometimes the ones on campus are a little harder to prove. It's because of alcohol for sure." Help and Education The number of rapes reported to Lawrence Police has increased from 27 in 2000 to 49 in both 2003 and 2004. Moseley said she's seen an increase in the number of women who come forward in the last few years. And while it is important for women to press charges against their attackers, it's more important that women know they have options and places to go if they need help, she said. Public education about rape and sexual violence has contributed to this increase, she said. Sexual violence education has been growing in the past 20 years, said Kathy Rose-Mockery, director of the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center. "More people are becoming aware and speaking up and using resources." Rose Mokery said. "Women can't change incidents, but they can use resources." Places like GaDuGi SafeCenter and the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center have improved teaching programs to reach more students. For example, the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center has initiated the Sexual Violence Education and Support Service program this semester. The program focuses on education and visits residence halls and fraternities and sororities on campus. "Our goal is to reduce incidents in the community," Rose-Mockery said. "It's a tall order for a small program." "I didn't know most people were raped by someone they knew," Angela said. "I want people to know it can happen. I want to inform people. It happens so often and people don't get help for it." Both Anne and Angela said they probably would have reported their attacks to authorities had they known more about rape. For Angela and Anne, the days are becoming easier because counseling is a part of their regular routine through Counseling and Psychological Services. Angela said the rape is something she has come to own. It is something she makes a conscious decision to think about — and sometimes cry about. While the rape was a horrible thing, Angela said she has grown from the experience. Both women are working on regaining control of their lives. It's a slow process, but they're getting though it. They both said the hardest thing was realizing the rape was not their fault. "I never asked to get raped. I was in a normal situation," Angela said. As a result of the rape she is more conscious of who she is friends with and hardly ever lets another person make her drinks. "I'm just more careful," Angela said. "But I'm not going to be afraid to live my life." — Edited by Jon Ralston and Stephanie Lovett Lawrence man breaks silence Mark Cline has a story to tell, but no one is listening. A woman raped the 47-year-old Lawrence resident more than 12 years ago. He's only been vocal about the attack for a few months. Disappointment for the soft-spoken man has sunk in. He had hoped to be a leader among rape victims — especially male victims — within the community. But if no one listens or believes him, he's not quite sure what he can do. While not well known, or acknowledged, men can be victims of rape. One of every 10 rape victims are men, according to Rape Abuse and Incest National Network. "From the general public perspective, it's misunderstood," Judy Parker said of male victims. "So many people are unprepared to hear about it and deal with it." Parker, Catholic Community Services of Lawrence director and counselor, said a lot of people thought a person must be physically forced into a sexual act before it accounted for rape. Therefore, people assumed men could not be raped, especially if the perpetrator was a woman. Rape is a crime of force, she said. Sex is the medium that it utilizes. Even forced oral sex can have the same criteria. Parker said. It was a summer night, and like many nights, Cline was camping at Clinton Lake. Cline considers his rape a "little rape," because the woman performed oral sex rather than intercourse. His bike broke while he was on on a ride. He was walking back to his campsite when a car approached him. A man and a woman were in the car. He reluctantly accepted a ride. The man, who was driving, told the woman to get in the back seat with Cline to help relay instructions to Cline's campsite. She climbed in the backseat and began to undo Cline's belt buckle. He protested, but she pushed his hands to his sides and told him to relax. Cline said he was frozen with fear as she performed oral sex on him. The hardest part of his experience has been the lack of support from the community. Cline said. He said his story had gotten him kicked out of stores and other places because his narrative makes people uncomfortable. "There is a larger support for women in the community." Parker said. It's difficult for the community and a man whose been raped to accept the male in a victim role, especially when the rapist is a woman, she said. It was hard for Cline to realize he was a victim. It was embarrassing, and he was ashamed his body reacted to the rape. After all, he's been physically intimate with only one woman his entire life. He said he was afraid people would believe him less if they knew it felt good to him. "The orgasm was very pleasurable," he said. "When I first reported that, I lied." "Basically the aftermath was an intense battle in my brain," he said. Parker said the reaction among male and female victims of rape were generally the same and should be treated similarly. "They need to recognize that it's a trauma like other traumas," she said. "To get through it — and there will be scars — they need to get professional support." That's why Cline is trying to tell his story. He said that he wanted other men to know it happened and that they didn't have to be ashamed about it. "I want everybody, the public, to know what happened to me to encourage other people to tell their stories," he said.

Boobie. Penis. Remember when these words caused you to giggle? For most of us, that time --- was second grade, and as immature children, it was appropriate to laugh or feel uncomfortable when you heard or saw "anatomy words." But in a Minnesota high school, that playground-mentality has drifted up into secondary-school classrooms, and school administrators are the whistle-blowers barring students' free-speech rights. MARISSA STEPHENSON mstephenson@kansan.com After attending "The Vagina Monologues," Winona high school seniors Carrie Rethlefsen and Emily Nixon decided to show their support for women's rights by wearing homemade buttons at their school. The buttons displayed a simple statement: "I ❤ My Vagina." But Rethlefsen and Nixon, both exemplary students who have nary a blemish on their scholastic records, refused to depin, and instead started a campaign to support their controversial badge. The pair created "I My Vagina" shirts for women and "I Support Your Vagina" counterparts for men. So far, more than 100 students have placed T-shirt orders. Winona school officials say any student who wears one of these vulgan vagina shirts will be expelled. School officials, however, didn't ♥ the buttons, or the "inappropriate and discomforting" message they said the pins sent. They told the women their message was vulgar and disruptive to the school and, thus, unprotected speech, and that they must leave their pins at home. The issue here isn't about lewd or disruptive speech. It's about comfort levels. Although students and faculty at Winona may be uncomfortable viewing "vagina" in print, it doesn't make the first buttons any less protected by the 1st Amendment. With "I My Vagina," Rethlefsen and Nixon are expressing a feminist viewpoint, and in their own words, they want to "spark discussion about violence against women and women's rights." This is political speech, and the law protects it. inappropriate. But in the 1969 case, the Court decided student political speech couldn't be In the United States Supreme Court case, Tinker v. Des Moines, students wore black armbands protesting the Vietnam War. Much like at Winona, school officials in Des Moines, Iowa, said the armbands were disruptive and restricted or punished unless school authorities could prove it "would materially and substantially interfere with the requirements of appropriate discipline in the operation of the school" or impinge other students' rights. The vagina buttons are not interfering with Winona school operations or impinging others' rights. No brawls or mobs have appeared since the women donned their buttons. And the only rights impinged upon thus far are Rethlefsen and Nixon's. By banning the buttons, Winona High School is engaging in viewpoint discrimination. If it wants to ban one button, then it must ban them all. No more "I Math" buttons. Throw out the "I voted" and "Winona pride" buttons, too. To fairly eliminate one message, it will need to eliminate every message. The crux of the problem is this: "I ♥ My Vagina" just makes some people unasy. Which begs a different question: why is the scientific word for a woman's reproductive organ taboo? Why, in a high-school setting, is the mention of anatomical parts considered bawdy-talk? Rethlefsen and Nixon had a slew of vagina synonyms they could have used for their pins, many of them vulgar, but they chose "vagina" because of its cultural history — in connection with "The Vagina Monologues," — and because a mature audience should accept it. Winona principal, Nancy Wondrasch, told Rethlefsen that by wearing her button she was "giving people the wrong ideas," and "sending an open invitation to guys." If that's the case, why not wear an "I ♥ Your Pen's" button? If that's the perception, Winona High needs serious education. The principal needs to learn the difference between a political statement and a potty-humor come-on. And students and faculty bothered by the V-word need to know that just because you don't like it doesn't mean you can ban it. - Stephenson is a Tonganoxie senior in journalism and international studies.

PAGE 7A THE CROSSWORD CAN WAIT Don't Ask, Don't Tell unjust policy for gays in military The nature of war was different back in the 1940's, and manpower and quantity of MATT SEVCIK msevcik@kansan.com personnel was the ultimate indication of a military's overall power, so when America needed people, regardless of their personal feelings, people showed up and fought. Times have changed, and our military is much smaller, but still as brave and effective. Today's army is one that values precision over power accuracy over size. Think of the armies of the 20th century like gigantic rocks that a man hurls at his target, and today's army like a high-powered rifle, with a scope, able to root out weak points and exploit them, with as little overall bloodshed as possible. Because of these changes in emphasis, our military enjoys the privilege of an all-volunteer army. No one is forced to fight that doesn't want to, and the system works. Soldiers who want to fight for America are far more effective than drafted men and women who may not agree with the politicians. But, can you imagine men and women who want to serve, but can't? Men and women who want to put their lives on the line, men and women who want to do the dirty work that allows people like me the freedom to express my petty opinions in college newspapers, but just aren't allowed to? Yes, that's right. He's finally gotten to the topic, gays in the military. Right now, a man or woman must keep their sexual preference a secret, or be forced out of the military. And if you aren't aware, this isn't a wink-and-nod policy. If you are suspected of being a homo sexual, the military spends thousands of dollars on investigations and kicks you right out. Ten-thousand soldiers have been discharged from our military since the policy was instated. About 191 million of your tax dollars have been spent on their investigations. Talk about unnecessary machine gun or throw a grenade. It's a common fact that gay people can't throw worth a damn. Limp wrists, you know. Maybe arguments against homosexuals in the military aren't quite as prejudiced and ridiculous as that, but they aren't far off. For example, one argument says allowing openly gay men into single-sex units will introduce sexual tension, thus disrupting the battle-readiness of the unit. This argument is unreasonable for many reasons. First of all, a small percentage of the military is divided into single-sex units. These contingents are mostly restricted to combat arms, and there are literally thousands of jobs to do in the military that don't have anything to do with combat arms. Why should we kick out translators, lawyers, doctors, nurses, computer technicians, engineers and other occupations based on the introduction of "sexual tension?" This is only assuming that our military is not professional enough to brush aside petty differences like race, religious preferences, and "sexual tension," and stay focused on the mission at hand. I feel that this argument is an insult to the professionalism of our military. My pick for a translator is based on their ability to translate well, not on whether or not "they's one of them there fags," just like I wouldn't care if my doctor was a lesbian so long as she could give me an I.V. And don't tell me that most of the military's personnel just aren't ready for a change like this, because they sure as hell aren't going to get over their homophobia by government-instated segregation. I believe we heard similar arguments in 1948, when Harry Truman ended segregation in the military. government spending. But, we got over it. I've always thought of the STATISTICS ON GAYS IN MILITARY Oh, but wait, he's gay. Better kick him out. God knows he can't shoot a rifle, or man a Neither Bill Clinton nor George W.

I sort of have to laugh at the ridiculousness of things like this, or I might go crazy. Soldiers like Sgt.

Cost of recruiting and replacing enlisted officers after an expulsion. $120.772 Source: Defense Department military as an organization so prestigious and professional, that they would be the pioneers in acceptance, especially when they stood the chance to employ intelligent, capable American soldiers. This is blatant discrimination, pure and simple. It's like saying you can't talk about your religion, or which political party you support, or your nationality. Do we realize just how un-American this policy is? "Oh, but gay people can serve in the military, so long as they keep their mouths shut about it." This policy is not only impractical; it's a direct attack on people's liberty, on people's ability to be who they want to be. If you support this policy, you need to take a good long look at what you think America stands for. Does it stand for policies that protect liberties, or policies that create a weaker military for flawed, stereotypical reasons? Because that's not what gay soldiers are putting their lives on the line for. That's not what any soldier puts their life on the line for. Telling a man who risks his life for your freedom that his service isn't valid because he's gay is like spitting in his face. We ought to be ashamed of ourselves for handling Sgt. Stout a medal with one hand and stabbing him the back with the other. ♦Sevck is a Leavenworth junior in English. ▼ REPORT CARD Pass: ♦ Moustaches.

At this point, it seems as though the state of Kansas would be remiss to pass up on an opportunity to embarrass itself. The evolution hearings are just the latest manifestation of this. It appears there is no stopping this state from hurtling full-force on its way to becoming a full-fledged theocracy. Possibly the worst of it all is that it's plastered all over national headlines, which means out-of-state students can't lie about it when others ask, "What's the matter with Kansas?"

For those not stolen by the finders-keepers-losers-weepers type, these items, and others, find their way to a campus lost and found. Kelly Connelley, Wichita junior, lost a blue water bottle on a Friday on the third floor of the Kansas Union. She called the Union's Lost and Found Office the following Tuesday and was able to pick it up the same day. was able to prove. "I thought my water bottle had just been thrown away, but a friend of mine told me to try calling the lost and found about it," Connellay said. "I described it to them, and sure enough, they did it. It was so easy." But Connelley's story is not a common one. Catt, Connetty's story is not a common one. Capt, Schuyler D. Bailey of the KU Public Safety Office, 303 Carruth O'Leary, said that only about 25 percent of items in lost and found are actually claimed. The items most often claimed are those with some sort of identifying information, such as wallets and cell phones. The high number of unclaimed items in lost and found offices might be because students simply forget where they lost their items, said Pam Shadoin, senior administrative specialist in the department of math in Snow Hall, west of Strong Hall. Shadoin also said that because the locations of lost and found offices weren't always posted, students probably didn't know to look in them. At least one Lost and Found Office, or really a lost and found box or cabinet, is located in each building on campus, normally in a department's main office. The clutter inside these offices is common too: textbooks, articles of clothing, sunglasses and electronics are piling up across campus. During the winter season, mittens, scarves, and hats are in abundance. At the Student Recreation Fitness Center, there are 23 KUIDs and 10 water bottles in the lost and found cabinet. ONLINE POLU Have you redeemed a lost item from a campus lost and found? - 21% said Yes - 78% said No Percentages based on 128 total votes Bailey said that the most unique item he'd seen turned in was a $100 bill. The bill was never claimed, so it was donated to a local non-profit organization. In most cases, though, Bailey said that items turned into the lost and found were ordinary. Items left in lost and found offices around campus are typically held for the remainder of the semester. Then, the items are forwarded to the safety office. The items are held there for three months, and then items that have value and are clean are donated to local charities. Otherwise, Bailey said, the remaining items were destroyed. Shadoin said most of the items from the lost and found are forwarded to the Safety Office, with textbooks as the exception. Textbooks, she said, are recycled back to their departments for staff and student use, or the textbooks are left on the ledge just outside the office for students to take. Before leaving for summer vacation, students should check a Lost and Found Office for any of their lost valuables. Students may often feel their loss is a permanent one, but their item may be among the hundreds of unclaimed items collecting dust in one of the 33 lost and found offices on campus. office for students to "If I was smart enough, I would sell the books back to the bookstore and be rich," Shadoin said, laughing. — Edited by Lisa Coble-Krings Allen Fieldhouse Maintenance Office 864-4751 Anschutz Science Library Circulation Desk 864-4210 Art and Design School of Fine Arts, Room #300 864-4928 Bailey Hall School of Education, Room #112 864-4401 Budig Hall Room #125 864-3726 Burge Union Book Store, Customer Services 864-9849 KU Card Center Kansas Union, Level 4 864-5697 Computer Center Room #202 864-5845 Dole Center Learning Resource Center, Room #2051 864-0468 Dyche Museum Gift Shop 864-0600 Fraser Hall Psych.

Big 12 Tournament seed uncertain for Kansas, others BY MATT WILSON mwilson@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER As the pieces to the puzzle that is Big 12 baseball begin fall into place these next two weeks, the Big 12 Conference Tournament picture is no clearer than it was in early March. Although the top four teams have solidified their standing in the league race, the bottom half is a logjam. Kansas shook up the equation with a series victory against Texas last weekend. Kansas is now 8-12 in conference play, which puts it in the eighth and final spot in the Big 12 Tournament. Only 10 schools have baseball teams, and of those only eight make the conference tournament. Kansas is one-half game behind Texas Tech for seventh and one-half game in front of Texas A&M in ninth. That creates an interesting scenario for the last six games of the year. For Texas A&M to leapfrog either Kansas or Texas Tech, Texas A&M would have to go through two of the toughest teams in the league. Texas A&M will be host to Baylor this weekend, and then travels to Austin to take on Texas in the season's final series. Coach Ritch Price said he felt good about his team's chances Kansas State, which is four games behind Kansas in the loss column, has just one conference series remaining. K-State takes on nationally-ranked Nebraska in Lincoln. The Jayhawks seem to have an easier road ahead, at least relative to the Aggies and Wildcats. They resume the Border Showdown next weekend at Missouri, and then finish their season slate against the Cowboys in Lawrence May 20 through 22. Both teams are in the top five in the conference's standings. BIG 12 CONFERENCE STANDINGS These are the Big 12 Conference baseball standings after last weekend's games. The top eight teams will play in the conference tournament May 25 through 29 in Oklahoma City.

SEE BALANCES ON PAGE 6B INSIDE THE PARK JACK WEINSTEIN iweinstein@kansan.com Seniors help teams improve Graduation is looming. Enough about me. Many of the athletes we've watched this past year will be leaving us to pursue professional careers, whether in sports or in some other capacity. In just 12 days, thousands will walk down the hill, and a few people will walk into Memorial Stadium to sit through the hours of pageantry. Although I am graduating with my first degree, those of you who wished to see me go will be disappointed. I will be back next semester filling the same role at the Kansan. Let's take a look back at the accomplishment of some of the athletes that have donned the crim son and blue, representing the University o Kansas with class over the last four years. Men's Basketball Guard Aaron Miles finished his career as the all-time assist leader at Kansas and in the Big 12 Conference with 953. Guard Keith Langford ended his career as the sixth-ranked scorer in Kansas history with 1,812 points. Forward Wayne Simien was a consensus first team All-American in 2005, the winner of the Senior CLASS Award and one of five finalists for the Wooden and Naismith Awards given annually to the nation's top player. to the nation's top players. Miles, Langford, Simien and guard Mike Lee helped lead Kansas to consecutive Final Four appearances and a trip to the Elite Eight during their four-year careers. Defensive end David McMillan was instrumental in helping lead one of the most dominant defenses in recent Kansas history. He finished his senior season with seven sacks, including three in the season-ending victory against Missouri, and 13 tackles for loss. He was selected in the fifth round of this year's NFL Draft to the Cleveland Browns. Tight end Lyonel Anderson and fullback Austine Nwabusi both signed NFL free agent contracts. Anderson signed with the Cincinnati Bengals and Nwabusi signed with the New York Jets. Football Goalkeeper Meghan Miller added to her career KU records in her senior season. She holds most career goalkeeping records, including most shutouts (30), most games started (87) and the best record for a KU goalkeeper (60-25-3). Miller also was a 2004 first-team All-Big 12 Conference Junior Luke Trammell practiced yesterday at the Alvamar Golf Club. Trammell took over for senior golfer Andrew Price in mid-March after Price had to sit out with a left-tand fracture. Since then, Trammell has played in six events with the team and has started in four consecutive tournaments. Soccer SEE WEINSTEIN ON PAGE 6B Junior fills leadership void MEN'S GOLF Luke Trammell helps lead Kansas during Price's injury absence GOLF BY TIM Hall hall@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER When senior golfer Andrew Price was forced to sit out in mid-March with a fracture in his left hand, junior Luke Trammell stepped up and filled the leadership position. In the fall, Trammell played in one event, the Kansas Invitational at Alvamar Golf Club, in Lawrence. But this spring he has played in six events and has started in four consecutive tournaments since the loss of Price, whose last March tournament appearance was an 18th-place finish in the Louisiana Classics Invitational on March 8. Stephanie Farley/KANSAN He sat out the next three tournaments before competing in the Big 12 Conference Championship April 29 to May 1. After Kansas coach Ross Randall decided to take him to the UTSA Invitational in San Antonio and the Louisiana Classics as an individual, Trammell was able to build some tournament experience that helped him receive the starting nod. "I really don't feel like I'm playing any better than the other guys on our team," Trammell said. "I think that I got lucky to have the opportunity to play, and I made the most of my opportunity." On April 9 at the Courtyard by Marriott Intercollegiate, Trammell tied his roommate, junior Pete Krensich, for the team's low score. Trammell shot rounds of 72 and 73 for a two-round total of 145, and he finished the tournament in a 27th-place tie. Trammell made his first start at the Stevinson Ranch Invitational in Stevinson, Calif., where he finished in a tie for 23rd place with a three-round total of 227 and helped the Jayhawks win their third tournament championship of the season. Since then, Trammell has started in every tournament for the Jayhawks. Most recently he played in the Big 12 Championships in Trinity, Texas, where he finished in a tie for 39th with his three-round total of 234. Trammell has held a steady stroke average of 75.50, and has been a reliable starter who consistently fires rounds in the 70s. While Price was out, the Jayhawks won one tournament and finished second in another, but Trammell said that losing a player like Price always hurt. "He's a guy that we really need on our team," Trammell said. "Any guy that can go out and tie the lowest round in Kansas golf history is a guy that will help our chances to win." On Feb. 11, at the Taylor Made Walkoloa Intercollegiate Golf Tournament in Hilo, Hawaii, Price shot a final-round score of 63, which tied former Kansas player Ryan JEE JUNIOR ON PAGE 6B 1 / --- 2B THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN SPORTS TUESDAY.

Florida Marlins pitcher Todd Jones doesn't think it's a coinidence. He's convinced there's a connection. "I think five weeks is too short a statistical sample to draw any conclusions," said Bob DuPuy, baseball's chief operating officer. "There are a myriad of factors that could influence that, including the cold and wet spring training we had in Florida, the weather in the first few weeks of the season" "Unfortunately, I do. I hate it, but there has been a correction made in the system, and the numbers are going to suffer for a couple of years," he said yesterday. "I hate to admit it because I didn't want to. I'm as disappointed as any fan would be that it's going to end up showing to be the truth. But it's got to be good for the game to get back to an even playing field. I just didn't realize deep it was." An average of 1.97 home runs were hit in games through Sunday, down 8.8 percent from the 2.16 average in the first five weeks of last season, according to the Elias Sports Bureau. It's the lowest level for the first five weeks since 2002's .193 average and below the 2.14 average of the last decade. "I don't know exactly to what extent, but you see people maybe not as big as they had been in the past or don't look as strong as maybe they had been in the past," he said. "Some balls are hit pretty well, but they're not carrying like maybe they had in the past couple of years. So, just being a thinking person, and you know what's been going on, you have to tie them together a little bit." But Los Angeles Angels bench coach Joe Maddon, who has been in professional baseball since 1975, thinks testing "could be tied to it somehow." Runs per game are down 5 percent, from 9.72 to 9.23, and hits declined 3.1 percent, from 18.37 per game to 17.80. The major league batting aver- some balls are hit pretty well, but they're not carrying like maybe they had in the past couple of years Joe Maddon Los Angeles Angels bench coach years." "I think if Barry were playing, you'd probably have that nine percent," Minnesota manager Ron Gardenhire said. sarah. "The best hitter in baseball is on the DL," added Florida Marlins third baseman Mike Lowell. "I can't say it's steroids or the pitching. It might be a combination. If it was down 30 percent, I would say, 'Whoa, we've got to look at something.' Nine percent is a minimal variation." "I don't think that's necessarily the cause," Tigers closer Troy Percival said of steroids. "And I only say that because being in Detroit, I've never seen weather being this cold day in and day out all the way through the central part of the country and the East Coast." age dropped from .265 to .261. "I don't know how much steroids had to do with it," Reds reliever Kent Mercker said. "Maybe the pitching got better." There have been exceptions. Pitchers on the Cincinnati Reds gave up a major league-high 49 homers in their first 30 games. They are on pace to break the team record of 236 they set last year, which was three short of the NL record. Minnesota outfielder Shannon Stewart was among those who cited better pitching as the cause for the drop. Several players and managers cited the absence of San Francisco's Barry Bonds. "There are guys that know how to make the ball move a little bit. To me,guys don't throw straight balls Home runs per game through the first five weeks of the major league baseball season, as compiled by the Elias Sports Bureau. POWER OUTAGE thinks pitching is a big part where we saw guys coming up to the big leagues who were throwing 87, 88, 89 mph. Now I see a bunch of guys coming up throwing 92, 94, 95," he said. "There might have been a drop in legal supplements, too. ... I'm seeing smaller players. It's unfair and wrong to assume that guy was on steroids, because supplementation can help too, and it's all legal."

Washington Nationals outfielder Jose Guillen judges by his own experience "At this time last year, I had fewer home runs than I have right now," said Guillen, who connected for No. 8 Sunday. "I had two or three at this time last year." - The Associated Press — AP Sports Writers David Ginsburg in Baltimore, Joe Kav in Cincinnati, Janie McCauley in San Francisco and Steven Wine in Miami contributed to this report Cardinals call up relief for Molina ST.LOUIS — Short a catcher after Yadier Molina sprained his left ankle running to first, the St. Louis Cardinals yesterday recalled Mike Mahoney from Triple-A Memphis. The team designated reliever Bill Pulsipher for assignment. Pulsipher, 0-0 with a 6.75 ERA in five games, cleared waivers and said he would accept the assignment. Medical tests showed only a sprain for Molina, who was batting. 200 with five RBIs and strong defensive skills in his first year as the full-time starter, and the team is hopeful he'll be sidelined only a few days. In the meantime, the team needed protection behind the plate. Molina was injured when he stepped awkwardly on first base running out a ground ball in the seventh inning Sunday.

The Royals lost, 6-1. TORONTO — Josh Towers won his third straight start by pitching eight strong innings, and the Toronto Blue Jays ended a four-game losing streak with a 6-1 victory over the struggling Kansas City Royals last night. Russ Adams hit a two-run triple for the Blue Jays, swept in three of their previous four home series. Towers (4-1), Toronto's fifth starter, allowed one run and seven hits, struck out five and walked one. He has allowed two runs in his last 22 2-3 innings, dropping his ERA to 3.12, and has given up two runs or fewer in five of seven starts. Joe McEwing drove in Kansas City's run with an RBI grounder in the sixth. Kansas City has lost six of seven, dropping to an AL-worst 8-24. Royals starter Runelys Hernandez (1-5) left with a bruised right upper arm. He was struck by Corey Koskie's liner in the fifth, then threw out Koskie and got the last two outs of the inning. But he didn't come out for the sixth. Hernandez has lost five straight decisions after winning his first start. He gave up two runs and five hits. Alex Kros' RBI grounder and Ken Huckaby's run-scoring single gave Toronto a 2-0 lead in the second. Kansas City's John Buck led off the sixth with a single, advanced to third on David DeJesus' double and scored on The Blue Jays avoided matching their longest losing streak of the season. They lost five straight from April 20-24. McEwing's RBI grounder. DL with a sore left elbow. Anderson went 1-2 with a 6.75 ERA in six games. The Royals replaced Anderson by recalling RHP Leo Nunez from Double-A Wichita. Nunez had a 8.31 ERA in eight games at Wichita. Toronto scored four runs in the bottom half on Adams' two-run triple off Kyle Synder, Huckaby's RBI grounder and Frank Catalanotto's run-scoring double. ♦ The Royals placed LHP Brian Anderson on the 15-day MLB BY R.B. FAHLLSTROM THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Weak pitching dooms Dodgers ST. LOUIS — Albert Puijols drove in four runs with two home runs off Odalis Perez, giving him four long balls against the left-hander in only 12 at bats, and Mark Mulder tied his career best with 12 strikeouts in the St. Louis Cardinals' 4-2 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers last night. Mulder, the ace the Cardinals lacked in the playoffs last year, allowed a run and three hits in seven innings, winning his fifth straight start. In the opener of a four-game series between division leaders, he struck out the side around a pair of singles in his final inning. Mulder (5-1) struck out 12 for the third time, the first since Sept. 17, 2002, against Anaheim. After a shaky first two starts with his new team, he has a 1.14 ERA in his last five outings. He allowed his only run on Cesar Izuris' two-out, RBI double in the fifth, which stopped an 0-for-12 skid. Mark Grudzielanek had two hits, and David Eckstein extended his hitting streak to 10 games for the Cardinals, who have beaten the Dodgers six straight times at home counting last year's first-round playoff series. Pujols hit a solo home run in the first inning into the visitor's bullpen beyond the left-field wall and hit a 3-2 hanging curveball from Perez (4-3) for a three runs in the fifth inning, putting the Cardinals ahead 4-1. He's 8-for-12 with 12 RBI against Perez. Perez gave up four runs and eight hits in six innings, losing for the first time in three career decisions at Busch Stadium. He was 0-1 in the playoffs against St. Louis, allowing eight runs in five innings over two starts. Third baseman Scott Rolen's second fielding error of the game helped the Dodgers score an unearned run in the eighth, when Ricky Lede had an RBI single off Ray King. Al Reyes got the last out for his third save. The Cardinals are without closer Jason Isringhausen, who is on the disabled list with a right abdominal strain. Notes ♦ Mulder was the second Cardinals pitcher to strike out 12 this season, following Chris Carpenter's outing April 27 against the Brewers. - Mulder is 69-5 in 84 career starts when supported by four or more runs. - Dodgers RF Jason Repkop, subbing for ailing J.D. Drew, nearly made the defensive play of the game in the fifth. He slipped on Grudzielanek's single and bobbed the ball off his face, but recovered to make a strong relay to third that forced Eckstein into a hook slide to avoid being thrown out. - Pujols has 11 multiple home run games and this was his first this season.

Midfielder Lauren Williams led the Jayhawks with seven assists and was an Academic All-Big 12 selection. Midfielder Amy Geha tied for fourth on the team with 13 points and was named first team All-Big 12 and second team Academic All-Big 12.

Embracing victory New York Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez celebrates the Yankees third consecutive victory by lifting up shortstop Derek Jeter after the Yankees defeated the Mariners 4-3 yesterday at Yankee Stadium in New York. YANKEES NFL Kathy Willens/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Rams' to receive softer playing field ST. LOUIS — The St. Louis Rams, who have long complained about the rock-hard consistency of their artificial playing surface, are getting a new field next season. A news conference has been scheduled today to announce the new playing surface for the Edward Jones Dome. The Rams' lease with the city, St. Louis County and Convention and Visitors Commission requires that the stadium turf be in the top eight of NFL stadiums by July 2005. The stadium will have FieldTurf, which has become the standard for artificial fields in the NFL and has been likened to playing on natural grass. The Rams have played on the same carpet-over-concrete field since the dome opened in 1995. The past few seasons, their indoor practice facility has been equipped with FieldTurf, and coach Mike Martz complained a handful of times about the unforgiving nature of the surface at the stadium. The Convention and Visitors Commission initially had resisted the change because it would hinder the dome's ability to hold conventions and trade shows. Red Sox trounce A's; Ramirez hit by pitch The Associated Press MLB BOSTON — Trot Nixon drove in four runs, and Kevin Millar hit his first homer of the season to power the Red Sox to a 13-5 victory last night. Oakland's fielding may have been worse than its pitching. Nine of Boston's runs were unearned all five in the fourth inning and four in a seven-run seventh. Manny Ramirez left after he was hit by a pitch from Dan Haren (1-5) in the left side of his batting helmet. Tim Wakefield (4-1) got his 118th victory with the Red Sox, moving into sole possession of fifth place in team history, one ahead of Pedro Martinez and Smokey Joe Wood. Boston's starters are 8-0 in 10 games since Curt Schilling and David Wells went on the disabled list. The Associated Press Triple in ninth gives Tigers first shutout The Tigers got their only runs off American League saves leader Francisco Cordero (0-1), who took over after Chris Young threw eight innings. ARLINGTON, Texas — Nate Robertson pitched eight strong innings and Craig Monroe hit an RBI triple with two outs in the ninth to give the Tigers the 2-0 victory over the Rangers yesterday. Robertson (1-3) won for the first time in 12 starts since Aug. 30. While he had lost five straight decisions since then, he had given up just two earned runs over 12 2-3 innings his previous two starts. The Associated Press Astros sink Marlins, break losing streak MIAMI — Roger Clemens allowed four hits in seven shutout innings to win for the first time since April 8, and the Houston Astros broke an 11-game road losing streak by defeating the Florida Marlins 2-1 Monday night Orlando Palmeiro, who entered with one RBI, drove in both runs with a scratch single and sacrifice fly. Clemens moved ahead of Steve Carlton into sole possession of ninth place with his 330th win. Houston has scored 11 runs in seven starts by Clemens (2-1). The Astros, 2-14 on the road, had lost 16-0 loss Sunday at Atlanta, their sixth consecutive defeat overall. The Associated Press Junior Price recently made his return to the Jayhawk starting lineup at the Big 12 Championship and he will next compete in the NCAA Central Regionals in South Bend, Ind., from May 19 to 21.

"He feels like he should be there, and he feels like he's part of the team," Price said. Edited by Ross Fitch CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B Balances Not only do the Jayhawks have a great opportunity to hold on, they also have an opportunity to move higher in the standings. Thinking big, the Jayhawks could possibly jump to as high as fifth if everything plays out to their advantage. With the home games against Oklahoma State, just one and a half games ahead of Kansas in the fifth slot, Kansas has an outside chance of moving up to fifth. But moving up to sixth or seventh is more likely. Oklahoma is tied with Kansas in the loss column with a record of 9-12. Oklahoma has the Bedlam Series against Oklahoma State this weekend before finishing with three games against Texas Tech. Junior first baseman Jared Schweitzer, who has been a stalwart in the Jayhawks' late-season charge, said the team could make a push toward the middle of the standings. "We put ourselves in a position where we can go to Missouri and hopefully win a series there," Schweitzer said. "If we won a couple of games against them we could be in a good position." The Big 12 Tournament takes place May 25 through May 29 in Oklahoma City. Kansas missed the tournament last year after qualifying in 2003. That was the only appearance for Kansas since the conference began in the 1997 season. — Edited by Lisa Coble-Krings Domestic LAWRENCE "We Stand Behind Our Work, and WE CARE!" & Foreign AUTOMOTIVE Complete DIAGNOSTICS 842-8665 Car Care INC. 2858 Four Wheel Dr. Domestic & Foreign Complete Car Care LAWRENCE AUTOMOTIVE DIAGNOSTICS INC.

Universities must undergo accreditation every 10 years in order for its students to receive federal financial aid and for its faculty to be eligible for federal research grants. Accreditation is scheduled to be finalized by June 13. "The big deal is we got the accreditation, which is an essential requirement," said Barbara Romzek, chair of the steering committee and associate dean of social sciences. "And the second piece is that they have faith they don't have to come back for 10 years." The University clearly meets all the criteria required for continued accreditation, according to the report: "The University has an appropriately articulated mission: Faculty and administrative expertise to deliver high quality academic programs and services, effective executive level leadership and regent support and the University has the necessary resources to continue fulfilling its mission." A group of 12 people comprised of outside academics from other research universities visited in Jan. 30 through Feb. 2. Charlie Nelms, vice president for institutional development and student affairs from Indiana University, led the group. Members of the learning commission had no formal concerns to report, unlike in 1994 when nine concerns were addressed. Among those concerns were inadequate space in the libraries, a need to improve graduate teaching and research assistant salaries and benefits and a need for stricter admissions policy. During its three-day visit, the team met with more than 150 faculty, staff, students and city and state officials at the Lawrence campus, Edwards Campus and University of Kansas Medical Center. It also reviewed publications, documents, budgets and Web sites, as well as the Self Study report put out by the University before the members' arrival. Romzek wasn't surprised the University was regarded highly. "We thought we were doing good enough that our accreditation was not at risk," she said. Before it left, the team gave a short summary of what was found. "They basically said we need to get the word out more of what we're doing." Romzok said. "The team came in, did a thorough investigation and left with a very favorable impression of the University." A focus on repair and renovation was one of the team's suggestions. A continuations of a more strict admissions policy and management of state funds were also suggested. "It is a chance to tap into their expertise," Romzek said. "We don't have to do it, but they are suggestions to what we might do to do even better." Chancellor Robert Hemenway received the report April 15. "The chancellor chose to send it to a Readers Panel, which signals we are happy with the report as a draft and are happy for it to go forward," Romzek said. The chancellor was given the opportunity to have the University investigated further through an accreditation policy. His approval of the report meant that it was passed on to continue in the finalization process. - Edited by Nikola Rowe FACILITIES COLLAPSING campus By Mike Mostaffa editor@kansan.com kansan correspondent Austin Gilmore/KANSAN State budget allocations fail to cover needed repairs Robert Smith, professor emeritus of anthropology, does not mind the rain, unless he happens to be in his office. Smith's office is in the basement of Spooner Hall, which is not only the oldest building on campus, but has the honor of being listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Smith's office does not have much of an office feeling to it, but then again, most offices do not leak abundant amounts of water. Whenever a heavy rain falls, water comes in through his office window, splashing all over his neatly stacked files of anthropology research. "I really should consider moving my computer," Smith said. Jerry Phillips, facility director for the sports and exercise science department, prefers to keep his door open while working in his office inside Robinson Center. Phillips' door remains open because the floor has shifted, making it impossible to open the door from the inside. "One time, I was trapped inside for about thirty minutes," Phillips said. A fellow professor eventually bailed him out. Smith and Phillips are not the only ones on campus waiting for maintenance work. The University has a deferred backlog of $24 maintenance projects that would cost $133 million to repair. It receives only $3 million in state funds each year to make such repairs. There are leaky roofs and deteriorating utility tunnels. There is inadequate ventilation in chemistry labs and buildings with wild animals and shifting foundations. The University's campus is in desperate need of repairs. The Kansas Board of Regents Educational Building Fund produces a total of $10 million for deferred maintenance for seven state schools each year. That money is supposed to be sufficient, but in reality it is just enough money to keep school buildings from crumbling. According to a 2004 Kansas Board of Regents study on deferred maintenance, the Legislature would need to generate $74 million per year to "adequately maintain the universities campuses." racinity directors must spend their funds as judiciously as possible, which means Smith might think about keeping an umbrella handy in his office and Phillips' office door will not be shutting anytime soon. In crisis mode Jim Modig, director of design and construction management, has the overwhelming task of overseeing the University's campus facilities.

FROM 1894 - 2004 Women students' GPAs have exceeded men students' GPAs during every Fall semester since 1994 at the University. G.P.A. 2.99 2.78 Women Men BY ERIC SORRENTINO esrententino@hansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER Cameron Monken/KANSAN Women at the University of Kansas might be pleased to know they have a mental edge over their male counterparts. The grade point average for University women for Fall 2004 was a 3.04, compared to a 2.81 for University men, according to the Office of Institutional Research and Planning. Some, such as Ann Cudd, director of women's studies, said reasons for the difference could include women's commitment to academics, the attendance of more women than men at University programs or the sorority population at the University. A wage gap between men and women still exists, and women must perform better than men in school to get a fair shot in the work world, Cudd said. Women earn about 72 percent of what men earn, as opposed to 30 years ago when women earned 59 percent of what men earned. "I think it's clear we've come a long ways, but we still have a long ways to go." Cudd said. This includes more men working as nurses or women working as engineers, helping to integrate the work force, Cudd said. Cudd said she noticed that men tend to underperform in school as opposed to standardized testing. She said that women were the opposite and overperformed in school compared to standardized testing. "My opinion is that scholarships are based too often on standardized test scores," she said. Women's success in school could be a result of their attendance at leadership programs at the University, said Rueben Perez, assistant dean of students and student involvement and leadership director. Women outnumbered men almost every fall at the student leadership institute, which helped students develop skills in leadership, communication and organization, Perez said. The institute attracted 100 applicants. Student involvement and leadership did not count males versus females, but Perez said it was obvious that more women than men attended. The presence of more sorority women than fraternity men contributed to high expectations of women to excel in school, said Debra Patterson, Garnett freshman. "A lot of my friends thought about rushing because it would help them do better in classes," she said. "That's probably not the whole reason, but I think being in something structured would help them do better."

After a six-month hiatus, the hotel will reopen at 4 p.m. today with a ribbon-cutting ceremony, said W. Randy English, general manager. The grand opening will be held next fall in about September or October, he said. he said. The hotel has stood at that spot downtown since 1855, when it was the Free State Hotel. The hotel was burned a year later by pro-slavery forces, but the hotel was rebuilt by Colonel Shalor Eldridge, where the hotel gets its name. The hotel was burned in 1863 by William Quantrill, and, once again, was rebuilt by Eldridge, according to the hotel's Web site, www.eldridgehotel.com. tel.com. The Eldridge stood as Lawrence's best hotel until 1925, when it began to deteriorate. Local business owners renovated the hotel, which lasted until the late 1960s. With falling revenues and the rise of the motel, the Eldridge closed its doors as a hotel in 1970. The hotel became apartments until 1985, when it was restored to a hotel by a developer. Management changed hands a few times, and the hotel was purchased in 2004 by investors led by Mitchell and Susan Chaney and Bobby Douglass. Kellv Hutsell/KANSAN Ten, the new restaurant in the renovated Eldridge Hotel at 701 Massachusetts St., is ready for the grand opening. Finishing touches were going on throughout the hotel in preparation for the ribbon-cutting today at 4 p.m. The new owners closed the hotel and restaurant in January 2004, and will reopen both again this week. The new restaurant and renovations will bring in younger students, said Katie Chaney, Brownsville, Texas, junior, and daughter of two Eldridge owners. "It's a lot like anything else, can't do anything ahead of time," said Bobby Douglass, part-owner of the hotel and former KU football quarterback. "It would be a little easier if the hotel didn't open also." Opening an almost brand new restaurant, bar and hotel all at the same time can be stressful. "It's just good American food." Chaney said. "All of the food is reasonably priced." Although both the 48-room hotel and the restaurant are opening this week, the restaurant will open a day later. The restaurant prepared practice meals for some of the staff yesterday, and would do so again today. Douglass said. The break was needed to create a seamless transition, Douglass said. Customers and students will be able to have many different dining options, ranging from the simple to more elaborate meals. "I think the renovations are great," Chaney said. "It added a lot of energy to the place." "I It's just good American food. All of the food is reasonably priced." Katie Chaney Brownsville, Texas, junior When the restaurant does open it will offer about 50 dishes, which include appetizers, salads and entrees. Meals can range from a hamburger to a parmesan-crusted filet. The restaurant has an all-new interior. Fifty employees, many students included, have been hired to staff the restaurant, now called Ten, and the bar, still called the Jayhawker. The restaurant can seat about 140, and the bar can seat about 80. Douglass said. Renovations expanded the bar by about 30 percent, he said. All room service for the hotel will go through the restaurant, using mostly the same menu as the restaurant. Renovations on the hotel allowed the new owners to refurbish each room with new carpets, furniture and paintings, English said. Although the suites have changed, the renovators did not change the building structurally, he said. Hotel management hired 25 fulltime employees to staff the hotel. Students are also employed at the hotel, mainly at the reception desk, English said. With the staff of the restaurant and hotel ready, the Eldridge prepares for a busy first few weeks, English said. The hotel's management expects today and tomorrow to be a little slow, but during the weekend the hotel will host a wedding reception and the following week is graduation. — Edited by John Scheirman Et CETERA The University Daily Kansan is the student newspaper of the University of Kansas.

PROFILE Cyclist shoots for the top BY JASON SHAAD jshaad@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER In a cycling race, everybody wants to be in front of the pack — just not the very front. "You don't want to take all the wind and let everyone else draft behind you," said Brian Jensen, Ronne, Denmark sophomore. "But it's about 30 percent easier to be in front. If you're stuck in the middle of a 100-man field, there is not much room to move." Jensen, 29, expects to be ahead of the club. He is the KU cycling club's top seed for the National Collegiate Cycling Association Road National Championships in Lawrence this weekend. The Associated Press About 450 cyclists from collegiate teams around the country will participate in the championship and six of them will be from the KU cycling club. The championship includes a road race, a team time trial and a one-mile loop course. Chris Hess, KU cycling club coach, has high expectations for lensen. "Short of a mechanical failure or an accident, he will be on the podium, which means the top three," Hess said. "He has that much talent." Jensen has similar expectations, but he is wary of competitors and the intricacies of cycling. "I'm strong enough to be on the podium," Jensen said. "But there are so many things that can happen. I haven't seen a lot of the competitors before. You need to make sure you play it smart and make all the right breaks. Otherwise, you might miss your chance to finish in the lead." Born and raised in Denmark, Jensen went to Oklahoma State in 1995 to run track and cross country. He transferred to the University of Kansas to run in 1998. After his eligibility ended in 2000, Jensen said his intense Kelly Hutsell/KANSAN training schedule made him lose motivation to keep running. Instead, he joined his wife for bike rides in the evenings. Five bikes and three and half years later, Jensen is one of the elite amateur cyclists in the country. Cycling has a five-category ranking scale. Five is entry level. Two is regional caliber. One is elite national amateur, Hess said. Jensen has attained the skill level of one, which puts him among the best competitors in the championship this weekend. But being a student and a cyclist is complicated. Jensen has traveled to competitions every weekend for the last seven weeks. He has driven to the competitions every time except once, when the race was in California. That time he flew. Jensen also spends between 15 and 25 hours a week training. During that time he covers about 350 miles on his bike doing intervals, hill repeats and long rides. The demanding training schedule forces him to compromise his studies, he said. "It's tough because you can't catch up on the weekends if you get behind in a class." Jensen, a civil engineering major, said. "I think a lot about school. It's always in the back of my mind that if I stayed home I could be studying and getting better grades." But training outside and being in shape is everything to him, he said. And that should make a difference this weekend, Hess said. Jensen's genetics, dedication to training, willingness to sacrifice his time, and his participation on the KU club team and a Kansas City club cycling team make him a favorite for the championship in all three races, Hess said. TOMAS MORRIS "There is no other feeling like winning a race," Jensen said. "That is why we put ourselves through so much." Edited by Jennifer Voldness Brian Jensen, KU cyclist,gears up for training yesterday at Broken Arrow Park with teammates in preparation for this weekends collegiate road national championships. Jensen is favored to place in the top three.

The group consists of several experienced sculptors including TJ Tangpuz, Kansas City, Mo., nontraditional student; Andrew Hadel, Riley junior; Andrew Leek, Olathe senior; Bradford Kessler, Pratt senior; Justin Riley, Fayetteville, Ark., senior; and President Sarah Heath, Wichita senior. While most KU students study in coffee shops, libraries and at home, upper-level and graduate sculpture students have their own little space to work located below the Art and Design sculpture room called the Sub-Base. the Subbase. To these 13 students it's more than a workspace or a studio — it's an artist community, said Dave Werdin-Kennicott, a.k.a. Smiling Dave, Kansas City, Kan., graduate student It looks like a set for a stereotypical college movie: Old comfy chairs and couches and magazine clipping collages attached to randomly painted walls with avant-garde music filling the air in a common room. Surrounding this common room are six studios where the artists work busily on sculpture projects. it even has its own phone booth. To Brett Richardson, Olathe senior, it could be a second home. "It's kind of personable — lived-in if you will," Richardson said. "It's almost like coming into someone's apartment." Richardson admits he spends more time in the Sub-Base than his own apartment. The Sub-Base's pet and mascot, Montel, the brown recluse spider lives in Richardson's studio space. Montel was caught from a friend's apartment and has been living in his glass-jar home in the Sub-Base for two weeks, Richardson said. Montel replaced a small field mouse named Testicles (which rhymes with the Greek figure Pericles) that died after living there for a day. there for a day. "It might have been the shock from living in captivity," Smiling Dave said. Dave said. The occupants of the SubBase regularly bring in communal snacks, have pot lucks and costume and collage parties, Smiling Dave said. Because the Sub-Base occupants are so close-knit, new people have a sense of being an outsider even though they are welcome to hang out, Andrew Leek, Olathe senior said. They also watch out for each other's tools, art and studio space from people who steal items. Leek said. "Sculptors have a lot of tools," Leek said. "We have a lot stuff on shelves. We know enough to lock up other people's studios if they leave them open and to turn off on appliances." the occupants have to move oversized work up a hill and to the front of the Art and Design Building, because the stairwell leading to the main part of the building does not accommodate large objects, Smiling Dave said. One of the downfalls of working in the Sub-Base is that said. "It challenges you to make easily-transferable stuff," he said. "A lot of my sculptures have wheels on them." have wings of their own. The Sub-Base is also headquarters to the Ministry of Sculpture, a new student group for anyone with an interest in 3-D art, Smiling Dave said. The occupants of the Sub Base usually change yearly depending who leaves school. Smiling Dave said. "I'll miss it," said Richardson, who is graduating this semester. "It's a nice environment and it's more than just a shared studio." - Edited by Jennifer Voldness TOURISM New ad campaign seeks to attract more visitors BY DAN PETERS editor@kansan.com KANSAN CORRESPONDENT Most guests at Constance Wolfe's bed and breakfast come to Lawrence for University-related functions. But the Convention and Visitors Bureau believes the city can promote its off-campus attractions to lure more overnight visitors. A new CVB campaign flaunts the city's cuisine, golf courses and artistic culture in five newspaper advertisements. The "Stay the Night" ad series made its debut in December in 12 Midwestern cities. Business has increased since the campaign began, said Wolfe, co-owner of the Halcyon House Bed and Breakfast, 1000 Ohio St. "The Convention and Visitors Bureau is doing an excellent job," she said. "I think that Lawrence has one of the best CVB's out there, period. I've seen what other people are doing in other cities, and these people are doing really good." Overnight visitors who came to Lawrence in 2004 spent an estimated $31 million, according to a CVB document. But visitors occupied only 54 percent of total available rooms throughout the year. The CVB hopes to reduce this vacancy burden by promoting Lawrence as a cultural destination. The Bureau placed their "Stay the Night" advertisements a second time in March. Some hotel managers have reported an increase in room occupancy since the launch of the campaign. The CVB chose cities based on previous visitor information requests and the number of new KU students from those communities. Henderson said the campaign focused on attracting visitors within a three- to five-hour drive of Lawrence. paugh. The CVB initially placed the advertisements in Omaha, Neb.; Des Moines, Iowa; Tulsa, OKla.; the Kansas City, Mo., area; and eight other Kansas markets, Susan Henderson, CVB marketing director, said. "We know from research that people aren't likely to fly here and make a weekend trip," she said. "But it's a great drive destination." The CVB tracked response rates by measuring visitor statistics to unique Web site URLs listed in each advertisement. Henderson said it also used a database to track visitor inquiries and online hotel bookings from particular areas. The database showed increased responses from all of the targeted communities, she said. Each of the five advertisements features a different theme. One promotes Lawrence as a winter golf destination. Another encourages the viewer to "load up everyone and head for Lawrence." Henderson said the "culture" and "romantic getaway" ads have generated the highest response rates. Molly Gordon, front desk cashier at Holiday Inn Express, 3411 Iowa St., said different types of visitors have stayed at the motel this year. It has attracted couples, business people who stay for long durations, and sports teams on the weekends. Lawrence provided a tourist-friendly atmosphere, the Merriam freshman said. "It's a nice townie town," she said. "This is a very good, artistic place to come with all the galleries, and because of the up-coming people attracted by the University." Many Lawrence accommodations thrive off KU-related guests, Henderson said. Wolfe estimated that 90 percent of her Halcyon House guests come to Lawrence for a University function. Lectures and conferences attract an international clientele to her business. Her location between campus and downtown make her house a convenient option for KU visitors, she said. The Halcyon House, as well as 10 other Lawrence properties, allow visitors to reserve rooms through the CVB's Web site. visitlawrence.com. Brandy Ernzen, CVB Assistant Marketing Manager, said online bookings have increased significantly since the launch of the campaign. Reservations made this January and February had doubled from the number made during the same time in 2004. Recent publicity may also be attracting more visitors to the city. Dan Kaercher, editor in chief for Midwest Living magazine, included a one-page feature on Lawrence in the April 2005 edition. He named Lawrence his favorite university town and noted its history and "bohemian air," worthy of attraction. The Feb. 25 New York Times travel section included a full-page feature on Lawrence. While some overnight visitors may come to Lawrence for a specific attraction, others discover the city by accident. Debbie White, co-manager of the Lawrence Visitor Information Center, said some road trippers stopped by en route to another destination. She said people were often surprised by the city's history, landscape and shopping. "The fact we actually have a downtown thrills people—actually it shocks people." White said. "Some people don't know how to handle it." Edited by John Scheirman F EVERYTHING BUT ICE BEDS • DESKS CHEST OF DRAWERS BOOK CASES unclaimed freight & damaged merchandise • 936 Mass.

The utility tunnel located underneath the pavement was the University's top maintenance priority for 2005. This section of the utility tunnel was in danger of collapsing, putting facility operations employees in danger. The tunnel is about 25 feet deep and contains steam lines and voice and data cables. The tunnel serves the Spencer Art Museum, Kansas Memorial Union, Dyche Hall, Lippincott Hall, Douthart Scholarship Hall and Grace Pearson Scholarship Hall. More than S11,000 square feet of facilities depend on steam produced by the utility tunnel. The cost of emergency replacement of this section of tunnel was $1.4 million dollars. "We don't have a comprehensive review, so we know we have more out there than what we have recorded," Modig said. Modig's office is a disarray of countless stacks of files and folders of documented maintenance projects. For Modig, a typical workweek ranges anywhere from 60 to 70 hours, which doesn't leave him much time to tidy up. Most of Modig's time is spent figuring out what maintenance projects must be taken care of immediately and which projects can be put on the back burner. "We try to find a reasonable way of taking care of all the University's maintenance needs." Modig said. "Given the lack of funding, we are put into what we call a crisis management mode." Modig uses the word crisis to describe the University's maintenance problem because according to building maintenance guidelines set by the Kansas Board of Regents, more than half of its buildings are deficient. Roofs are the No.1 priority when it comes to maintenance, Modig said. If a building does not have sound roofing, other problems will follow. "We take care of our roofs because lack of roof maintenance will make that building uninhabitable and over time, you'll have a much bigger problem then just a leaky roof." Modig said. Repairing roofs is a vital part of preventive maintenance, but they are expensive to repair. On average, Modig is given a $500,000 annual budget to fix roofs. With that budget no more then one or two roofs can be Haworth Hall Located north of Robinson Center water to rush into the building. Modig was left no choice but to defer another much-needed roof maintenance project until the following year. Built in 1969 Received a Kansas Board of Regents building score of 72 Building condition classification: not used "When you do an emergency bid you create a trickling down effect," Modig said. "This is why we call it crisis management." Deficient Building replacement cost: $59,129,000 Total cost of documented repairs: $9,249,480 replaced in the same A good chunk of this year's year. "We are going to spend $400,000 on Robinson Gymnasium's roof this year alone," Modig said. "That doesn't leave much left for anything else." else. Robinson's roof was scheduled to be fixed last year but was bumped down the list to make room for an emergency maintenance project. In 2003, the Computer Services Facility building's roof split open, allowing funds were not spent on roofs or leaky windows. This year's No. 1 maintenance concern was u n d e r - ground, out of sight. The construc- tion site adjacent to Spooner Hall, which led off. Street to the dismay of the residents of the Douthart Scholarship Hall, was this year's crisis. Underneath the pavement is one of many steam tunnels that produce heat for campus buildings. The tunnel needed to be fixed because it was putting the lives of employees who worked in the tunnel in danger. It also threatened to cut off heat and power to numerous buildings on campus. Documentation submitted to the Kansas Board of Regents stated that "every time maintenance workers have to go into certain parts of the tunnel, they are risking their lives." Vernon Haid, senior supervisor of the facility and operations steamfitter's department, worked in the tunnel. He alerted the design and construction department to how serious a problem the tunnel had become. Haid, equipped with nothing more then a flashlight and a hard hat, regularly checked the tunnel for routine maintenance. "The heat is something else," he said. "It's usually anywhere in the range of 130 degrees." The heat was not the only thing Haid had to worry about. Major holes were beginning to form in the corrugated metal and pipes were beginning to rust. The metal liner used to protect the pipes from the elements had deteriorated to such an extent that Haid could easily push his hand through it. "You try not to think about something like that happening when you're down in there, but I would be lying if I said it wasn't in the back of my mind," Haid said. For the steam system to operate correctly, the level of steam must remain at a consistent level. If the rusted pipes and eroded metal fails to maintain adequate steam levels, an emergency system releases steam and simultaneously removes all the oxygen in the tunnel. Although work on the steam tunnel underneath 14th Street has been completed, other steam tunnels underneath the campus are deteriorating such as the one near Spooner Hall, he said. he said. "As of right now the other tunnels are manageable, but that doesn't mean tomorrow they will be," Haid said. The 14th Street tunnel had to be fixed because it provided heat to Dyche Hall. Dyche Hall is home to nearly 200,000 specimens used for biodiversity research. Protecting valuable resources Had the tunnel not been fixed, rare living and extinct plants and animals that rely on a specific climate would have been lost. Losing those specimens could have cost KU an estimated $5 million in research money. Jordan Yochim, assistant director of administration for the Natural History Museum and Biodiversity Center, said he was ecstatic that KU made that steam tunnel a priority. "Dyche has been the permanent home for the Natural History Museum for 100 years," he said. "The public knows us here and the research we do is known throughout the world." Not too far from Dyche another building benefited from the repairs to the steam tunnel. The Spencer Museum of Art also relies on a controlled environment to protect its valuable art collection. art collector. Richard Klocke, exhibit designer for the Spencer Museum of Art, has the task of preserving works of that date back to Middle Ages. "With the age and texture of art pieces we have, it is crucial that our building maintains a normal climate," Klocke said. While those at the art museum and Dyche Hall breathe a sigh of relief, people in Malott Hall are finding it difficult to breathe. Malott Hall, home to the University's chemistry department, is a building that stinks, literally. Between the fumes from the chemicals used by hundreds of students and the odors from live animals kept for research, the building has a unique fragrance. In recent years, students have actually passed out, while others have vomited from the strength of nauseating fumes. Robert G. Carlson, professor ing is only a symptom of the real problem, which is that the University's chemistry labs are outdated. "There are high schools equipped with better laboratories." Carlson said. Rich Givens, professor of chemistry, said a long list of Kansas schools have better chemistry lab facilities than what Malott Hall offers. What has Givens said Kansas State and even smaller schools like Fort Hays State surpass the University of Kansas' outdated facilities. He said that Kansas State University's chemistry laboratories have a maximum of two students sharing one fume hood. In some Malott Hall laboratories up to 17 students are forced to share two fume hoods. share two names Fume hoods are important to chemistry labs Nunemaker Hall Located on Engel road Located on Engel road north of Daisy Hill Built in 1971 Received a Kansas Board of Regents building score of 78 Building condition classification: Deficient [Image of a building with large windows and a staircase leading to the entrance.] Building replacement cost: $1,498,000 Total cost of documented repairs: $224,380 kansan.com Fuel for Thought 100 mpg $899 & Up Subsonic Scooters 624 N. 2nd Street, Lawrence, KS 785-749-0200 www.subsonicscooters.com I LOVE YOU JULIA!

"Lab is difficult enough for any student, but it is more difficult with crowded, old, laboratories which are on the border of being unsafe." Givens said.

Where the animals roam Another building that needs renovating is Bailey Hall, formerly home to the School of Education and now the home of the University's award-winning communication studies department. But to those who work on the fourth floor, the building has the reputation of being a zoo. For Nancy Baym, associate professor of communication studies, that reputation was cemented last spring. Baym returned to her office one day to find a note on her door informing her that an opossum had gotten into her office. "It must have been frightened because it really did a number on my office," Baym said. The opossum had scurried into the building through a hole in the roof and found its way directly above Baym's office. The ceiling gave way, sending the animal tumbling down to the office floor. Once inside, the opossum decided to use Baym's books as chew toys. For nearly two years, a family of birds would continually find shelter right above Baym's office. In Baym's office one lone white tile stands out amid a ceiling of gray. That tile is the exact spot where the opossum fell, a constant reminder of the day an opossum redecorated her office. That reminder is more subtle than the calling card left by other friendly visitors. "I have had bird droppings Baym's office neighbor, Tracy Russo, assistant professor of communication studies, also has had the challenge of working to the sounds of a mother bird feeding her young in the spring. everywhere on my desk, including my computer," Baym said. "Sometimes the pitter patter of little feet and all the chirping is just too much." Russo said. The occasional animal guest is not the only problem residents of Bailey's fourth floor face. To get to the fourth floor on the weekends, it is recommended to steer clear of Bailey's elevator and use the stairs. "I won't go on the elevators on the weekends because no one is here to help you if you get stuck." Russo said. "It's challenging to say the least." Russo said. Joann Keyton, professor of communications studies, agrees that Bailey Hall hinders the ability to teach state-of-the-art communication classes. "We have communication technology classes in classrooms incapable of handling technology," Keyton said. "We are a social science and we should be teaching students in a lab." The aging Bailey Hall elevator has a distinct grind, much like that of an old car stopping abruptly for a red light. Oldfather Studios Located at 1621 W. Ninth St. Built in 1955 Received a Kansas Board of Regents building score of 59 (out of 100) Building condition classification: Poor Building replacement cost: $2,658,000 Total cost of documented repairs: $826,580 "I was stuck on it one time only for five minutes, but it kind of freaked me out," Russo said. Aside from old elevators and animal visitors, Russo has one other problem with Bailey Hall. At the Edwards Campus, she can use facilities equipped with state-of-the-art technology to enhance students' learning. This method of teaching is not possible in 105 year-old Bailey Hall, which offers only chalkboards and retro overhead projectors. UNIVERSIDAD PATAGONIA MUSEO DE LA LEY ENTRE LOS 21 DE JULIO 2023 Russo, who teaches communication technology classes at Bailey and at the Edwards campus, must have two different lesson plans for the same class. Jim Modig, director of design and construction management, has the challenge of reversing the trend of the increasing backlog of maintenance projects the University has neglected. Modig is available for late evening and weekend emergency meetings, which means it is not uncommon to work 60 to 70 hours a week. USITY OF KANSAS cience Campus January 21, 2003 Spending not to exceed projects Completed in last projects or Which Funding Is Likely projects (Unfunded) Shifting structure Over at Wescoe Hall, no one has had to call animal control, but trying to walk around the first floor without falling or receiving a bump on the head has been a problem. A running joke among KU students is that one day Wescoe Hall will slide downhill and collide with Malott Hall. What is not a laughing matter is that Wesco is shifting. Ethan Schmidt, a graduate teaching assistant in the English department, has experienced the trials and tribulations of having an office on the first floor of Wescoe Hall. According to documentation submitted to the Kansas Board of Regents, Wescoe Hall's first floor soils have shifted as much as six inches. "If you rolled a cart with a computer on it chances are it would fall off," Schmidt said about the heavening floors. floor has risen Even if you avoid tripping on a raised portion of the floor, you still might receive a bump on the head if you're not careful. The in certain in certain areas to such an extent the walls are being pushed into the ceiling. This has caused light fixtures to fall out, which is evident by the numerous holes in the ceiling. Randy Killingsworth, 11 custodian at the University for 13 years, says yes. Is Wesco Hall the most dilapidated building on campst is? "It's definitely the wors't building I've worked in and I've been here awhile," Killingswor th said. Aside from uneven floors and falling light fixtures, Wesc oe Hall has water problems. Dorice Elliott, associa te professor of English, said wi hen she makes a trip to the first floor, she always watches her step. "Often times you walk around the first floor and there are e buckets in the middle of the floor from the leaks." Elliott sa id. Richard Bond, chairman of the Kansas Board Regents, understands the University is in a difficult position. A growin a problem But he said the board is hopeful it will be able to better address the problem next year. TOMMY HALLER Eric Trompeter, Atchison sophomore, works on a crossword while he waits for his speech class to start in 103 Bailey Hall on Monday afternoon. Bailey Hall, built in 1900, is still waiting for $1.5 million worth of documented maintenance work. According to the Kansas Board of Regents guidelines, Bailey Hall is a deficient building and is in need of minor repairs and limited replacement of components based on age or performance. "$2.9 million is a drop in the bucket," Bond said of the yearly allocations the University gets for deferred maintenance NATION Elliott and other KU faculty, staff and students who are inconvenienced by leaky roofs and other maintenance problems should look for things to get worse before they get better. Every year, the University loses ground because the annual deterioration of buildings exceeds the amount of state funds the University gets for maintenance. Modig said a standard formula for determining the deterioration of existing buildings each year is two percent of value. By that yardstick, the Uni versity would need $14.6 million just to pay for the 2 percent deterioration of a facility valued at $733.4 million, the total value of all campus buildings. Because KU got only $2.9 million in state funds this ye ar, and can expect about the sane next year, the costs of maintenance projects deferred because of lack of funds would go up about $11.7 million each year. — Edited by Kim Sweet Rubenstein This type of attitude earned the men of Beta Theta Pi a 3.43 average GPA in the fall, higher than all greek chapters at the University. Although these factors could be possible reasons why females have higher GPAs, some think the statistic has little meaning. Report of grenade investigated Even though they are outnumbered, fraternity men address academics as well. Beta Theta Pi fraternity, 1425 Tennessee St., is study-oriented, said Stephen Bryant, Wichita junior. "We respect the study space 24/7." he said. "If there's ever a disturbance, you just say 'study hall' and they take their business somewhere else." Bryant was still aware of the average GPA among women at the University. He said he noticed many women at the University were education majors and thorough in their studies. In the fall, there were 352 more sorority women than fraternity men. Last fall, there were 505 more sorority women than fraternity men, according to the scholarship report. "It doesn't seem to be an important difference," said David Dewar, assistant director of the humanities and western civilization program. "It's essentially a 'B' for both of them."

Bush was returning to the United States late yesterday after a four-country trip. He was the first American president to visit Georgia. kansan.com The student newspaper of the University of Kansas According to the report, a Georgian security officer picked up the device and removed it from the area.

WWW.KANSAN.COM ▼ SACK'S PERSPECTIVE STOR TRIBUNE PRIVATIZATION SOCIAL SECURITY THE COLD FEET BRIDE Steve Sack/STAR TRIBUNE AS I SEE IT No sense complaining; look at bright side of life Stop whining, reader Please, for the sake of the rest of us, stop complaining for once in your life. For a day, refrain from any bitching you would normally annoy people with and enjoy your life. Did anyone catch the April 28 article on Andy Marso and his battle with --- BOB JOHNSON bjohnson@kansan.com meningitis? This man should be your inspiration. You think your Introduction to Philosophy class is tough? Try waking up with bacterial meningitis tomorrow and struggling to stay alive for the rest of the day. Don't have the car you want? Think about not having full use of your hands and feet. If you read the article, which I strongly suggest that everyone do (it is easily accessible on the Kansan Web site), you would know that Andy Marso, a person with every right to complain, refuses to do so. This is a man who lived the normal life of a college student until a year ago, when he contracted meningitis and nearly died, then spent an entire summer in the hospital undergoing numerous surgeries and amputations. Astoundingly, Marso emerged from this period of physical and emotional trial filled with hope and optimism amidst his suffering. Time and again I gave up Astoundingly, Marso emerged from this period of physical and emotional trial filled with hope and optimism amidst his suffering. "Time and again I gave hope for the future," Marso wrote in his April 28 Kansan column. "But the sun would rise again and I would wake with the strength to face another day." People like Marso are true heroes because they are reminders of a side of humanity that is not always evident in most of our day-to-day lives. The strength of the human spirit to overcome true hardship is an That is true courage in the face of adversity. You want to tell me about the trouble you're having picking out a dress for graduation? Try not being able to be present at your graduation, where you were to carry the journalism school flag for finishing first in your class. That was the situation a hospital-ridden Marso found himself in a year ago, but my guess is he didn't gripe about it. Maroo is set to give the commencement speech at this year's journalism school recognition ceremony. I, for one, cannot wait to hear what he has to say. The tribulation he has undergone this past year far exceeds anything I can really fathom and makes my problems seem insignificant and foolish. incredible and awe-inspiring thing. Marso's story and those like it continually remind us that there is always something worth fighting for. And sometimes, they remind us what a fight it is. Marso's battle with disease and its after-effects have been grueling and painstaking for both Marso and those who love him. My guess is that a number of you reading this article have experienced similar situations, either personally or with someone close to you. Yet you are still here, and for that basic fact it is clear that you are winning the battle. Most of us will go through loss or other significant hardship in our lives, and some more than others. In many ways it is the stories of those like Marso that sustain us in our own time of need. We all have difficulty in our lives, and I do not mean to downplay the legitimacy of anyone's troubles. Just because another person's struggles may seem heavier at face value does not mean that yours are not important. I just ask that we all take a step back and put everything into perspective. My hunch is that if everyone exercised a healthy dose of common sense and reason in examining their own worries, they would find that some of their alliances would be at least partially alleviated. Things could always be worse, which is very much true. Conversely, I implore you to not believe any of that Murphy's Law nonsense. If you truly buy into the notion that everything that can go wrong will go wrong, I can assure you with complete confidence that it will. Lighten up a little bit reader, and try on some optimism for size. I can show you one man who already has, and for Andy Marso, it has made all the difference in the world.

A SHADENFREUDEN WORLD 图文: Mistreatment of women exacerbates AIDS epidemic For nearly 20 years now, the world has made a concerted effort to battle the AIDS epidemic, with much of the focus toward Africa. However, the Bush administration and even rest of the world, fail to recognize the grievous mistake of putting emphasis on treating those MINDY OSBORNE mosborne@kansan.com empires of the world that have already infected instead of dealing with the larger social and gender issues that are the source of the AIDS epidemic. The hardest hit regions in Africa, such as South Africa, Kenya and Uganda, are in their current state of peril because of the condition of women in these countries. Practices, such as sexual cleansing of widows, unrestrained polygamy and "sugar daddies," create and contribute to the current state of chaos. For example, a custom in Africa requires widows and widowers to be "sexually cleansed" of their dead spouses before they can marry. The process dictates that the widow must have sex with her husband's male sibling or the widower with his female sibling. Most often, the dead spouse died of AIDS or anyone of the relatives have HIV or AIDS, thus increasing the spread of the disease. Efforts to curb this practice include encouraging changes by substituting this practice with others like having them jump over cows or go through an herbal bath. However, for the widows, the risks of infection do not stop there. In reality, even after performing the ritual, widows are ostracized by their community. On top of it all, even if women are infected, they will not seek out help or treatment because HIV infection is seen as the result of their immoral sexual behavior. Polygamy is also a prevalent problem because it was once believed effective in limiting sexually transmitted diseases as men had sex only with wives in the village but now it poses a threat to woman as mobility had encouraged men to seek spouses outside the village, thus increasing the risk. Last year, Jennifer Schmidt reported on the problem in South Africa on NPR. "Gender inequality is deeply ingrained in black South Africa. It's common, almost expected, for men to have multiple sexual partners. Women are traditionally taught to refuse their husbands nothing. In the face of AIDS, these customs are a formula for disaster. In South Africa, young women are now infected with HIV at twice the rate of men..." Another myth is that having sex with young virgins could cure men of AIDS and protect them from HIV infection. This practice happens normally in the context of a "sugar daddy" relationship, which entails young girls being coerced into a sexual relationship with an older man in exchange for money for textbooks, food or small luxuries. A Population Services International survey of men and young girls in African countries found that men preferred not to use condoms and often had sex with younger women because they perceive them as unlikely to be HIV-positive. The survey defined "sugar daddies" as men at least 10 years older than their sexual partners. Many of these girls assume that the men are not HIV-positive. Curbing such encounters could cause a reduction in HIV transmission. In this current state of affairs, other nations are quarrel over which is more effective, promotion of abstinence or distribution of condoms. In reality, neither is going to make much impact for now. On the abstinence side, President Bush announced the Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief and asked Congress to commit $15 billion during the next five years to help the most afflicted nations of Africa and the Caribbean. This pledge is the most impressive to date and already has provided $2.4 billion in relief last year. But the Emergency Plan funds stipulate that one-third of the bill's AIDS prevention funding should be used for abstinence and monogamy programs. The key element of the program's strategy is the "ABC policy", which stands for "abstinence, being faithful and condoms." Even furthering complicating the proposal, communication is difficult in a developing world where there's not infrastructure to deliver prevention messages. Besides, hasn't anyone told President Bush that 61 percent of graduating high school seniors have had sex, according to The Washington Post? This is even in his own country where the rate of teenage pregnancy is the highest and despite all of his spending on abstinence-only programs. In a country that encourages men to have sex outside of marriage and rampant child prostitution, his goals of abstinence and being faithful seem more like pipe dreams than legitimate endeavors. As for condoms, Europe is the biggest proponent. England's International Development Minister Gareth Thomas said, "Fundamentally you have to recognize the reality that people are able to make their own decisions about sex lives, and we need to understand that reality and increase access to condoms." While this may seem like a more logical solution, Richard Knox pointed out on NPR, "Condoms aren't a real choice for tens of millions of women worried that their men might give them HIV. For a woman even to suggest that her partner use a condom invites suspicion of her." In the meantime, focus should be paid on providing funding for the education and empowerment of women in Africa. A report from the United Nation AIDS found that when women stay in school longer, they understand better how to protect themselves and have a chance to fight the conditions that increase their vulnerability to AIDS. As Kofi Annan said at the AIDS Conference, "Only when societies recognize that educating girls is not an option, but a necessity, will girls and young women be able to build the knowledge, the self-confidence and the independence they need to protect themselves from AIDS." ◆ Osborne is a Dunlap, Ill., junior in journalism and international studies. LETTER TO THE EDITOR Column twists Catholics' concerns about Pope Ratzinger Vince Myers's opinion column, "Don't expect Catholic pope to advocate liberal ideals," on Friday, greatly distorted the viewpoints of many Catholics. Liberal Catholics do not expect the new pope, or any pope, to advocate liberal ideas. We are afraid that the new pope will purge all moderate and liberal voices in the Church who have different opinions about issues like the ordination of women, an enlightened teaching on sexuality and birth control and an end to the shameful dehumanization of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender Catholics. And we have good reason to be afraid: Just last week the editor of the Catholic magazine America was forced out of his job for allowing debate on issues that the Vatican feels should not be discussed. One of the most important theologians of the 20th century put it best when he said: "In matters of faith, unity; in matters of opinion, liberty; in all things love." This particular Catholic was purged from the Church by then-Cardinal Ratzinger. Liberal Catholics are concerned about a pope who will destroy the freedoms of speech and conscience in our church.

The meetings, which were started by David Titterington, Prairie Village senior, take place every week at his home with meditation from 7:30 to 8:15 p.m. with dinner taking place afterward. Below, food from the potluck. "Shoot. I'm late," I thought as I hurried down. Kentucky down Kentucky Street. As I walked toward my destination, I made sure my cell phone was off. I knew my tardiness would be disruptive, and a buzzing cell phone would certainly not help. I slowed my pace and quietly made my way up the steps of the old house. Inside was still and quiet. I crept into the living room and picked a spot on the floor next to a stranger sitting quietly in meditation. There were about 10 other bodies, all sitting undisturbed by my late arrival. Mindful not to make much noise, I folded my legs into the half-lotus position, straightened my back and began to meditate. This scene is like any Monday night at David Titterington's house. Each week he hosts a meditation session, followed by a vegetarian potluck dinner. Titterington, Prairie Village senior, has been hosting the event since 2002. "At first it started out as a people meeting to meditate together, and we would have dinner afterwards," he said. "But eventually it evolved into an official potluck." More and more people seem to be too busy to take the time to sit down and share time with one another. Everyone is constantly on the go or in front of the TV or computer. An event such as Titterington's potluck is a way to get in touch with the community. "Building community at mealtime is a heart-warming and potentially sacred experience that has been somewhat neglected in our culture." Cody Jackson Lawrence resident "Building community at mealtime is a heart-warming and potentially sacred experience that has been somewhat neglected in our culture," said Cody Jackson, Lawrence resident. "Potlucks are a great way for everyone to reconnect and build positive relationships." Anne Bruce, Overland Park junior, also has a potluck once a month. Bruce said potluck day was like Christmas because the monthly dinner also marks the arrival of food ordered in bulk through a cooperative run out of her living room. Twelve households in Lawrence place bulk food orders once a month through Bruce. This is more economical than buying smaller quantities at the store. Everybody from students to people living on farms are involved in the project. a food-buying co-op from stories about the old Community Mercantile, commonly known as The Merc. The Merc sold vegetables grown in a nearby garden and was involved in the community, which Bruce said was how she wanted her co-op to be. Making excess goods available for trade or purchase is the next step for Bruce's co-op, which would be another way for the community to interact A step beyond attending a potluck or buying food from a co-op is living in a housing cooperative. The University of Kansas Student Housing Association helps facilitate housing co-ops. There are two University housing co-ops in Lawrence: the Sunflower House, 1406 Tennessee St., and 1614. at 1614 Kentucky St. Shannon Keefe, Chicago senior in nutrition, lives with nine others at the 1614 co-op, also known as the Olive House. Residents of 1614 pay a flat rate based on the size of their room. All rent, utilities and amenities are included in the price. Residents of 1614 sign up for weekly cleanings of the kitchen and two bathrooms and are assigned a job. Keefe's job is to take notes at each of the house's bi-monthly meetings. During the meetings, they have "ongoings," where they report what is going on in their lives. They also have "complaints and praises" where residents address any issues they may have with the house. "But the rule is that for every complaint, you have to give a praise." Keefe said. Because she lives in a house with nine others, there is always something going on or somebody to talk to. By taking an interest in what her roommates are doing and getting to know their friends, Keefe said she was able to get to know a variety of people. got the idea for startu In the fall, a new co-op will open its doors. The Ad Astra house (1033 Kentucky St.) is a cooperative housing project taken on by environmentally and socially aware students. The house will serve as a center for appropriate technologies and a resource for sustainable living. This means the house will be environmentally conscious and try not to consume more than it produces. Ad Astra's goals are to serve as a resource center for sustainability, to provide community outreach opportunities and to function as a habitat that does not needlessly consume. As its name implies, Ad Astra — Latin for "to the stars" — has far reaching goals. These goals could produce a more environmentally aware population, which could have an effect on the community. The house itself was recycled - saved from demolition by the University in 2004. All of its fixtures, furniture, and carpet are recycled. The paint is a milk-based biodegradable substance, and the insulation is recycled newspaper coated with borax. Lawrence is filled with opportunities for its denizens to interact with each other. Anything from eating at a potluck to living in a housing cooperative is a great way to become more in touch with the community surrounding the University. By getting involved in community activities you can learn a lot about yourself and the others living around you. While I was sitting in mediation, I realized how important it was to take time to myself and reflect on the day. Afterward, I ate a great meal in the company of interesting people. The experience was rewarding, educational and made me feel more connected to the community. I intend on making it a habit of going to more events like this.

Baty and the Jayhawks travel to Springfield, Mo., tonight to take on Southwest Missouri State WWW.KANSAN.COM Growing confidence Baseball team takes winning ways into Southwest Missouri State BY ALISSA BAUER abauer@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER Despite a game-three loss to Texas on Sunday, the Jayhawks' momentum from the series victory remains strongly on their side as they travel to Springfield, Mo., to take on the Southwest Missouri State Bears (17-29, 4-14 Missouri Valley Conference). Kansas (33-22, 8-11 Big 12 Conference) heads into tonight's contest after winning six of its last seven games. Two series victories in a row, against Kansas State and Texas, proved that the Jayhawks were playing their game, junior outfielder Matt Baty said. "I'm feeling really good about where we are at," he said. "We're playing our best baseball right now and this is the time when we want to play good baseball." The starting pitching has taken shape in the last two weeks, and players who have not been swinging the bats well are coming alive as the season heats up for postseason play. The Bears enter tonight's game after winning a non-conference series against Louisiana-Monroe two games to one (4-12, 8-5, 8-4). two games to one (4-12, 3-0). Making up for a rainout earlier in the season, the Jayhawks now find themselves on a road trip during a crucial part of the season. Tonight's game was originally scheduled for March 22, during Kansas' nonconference spring break trip, but the cancellation forced the game to be pushed back to May. fortored the game "The last time we were there they had 6,000 fans there last year in May," coach Ritch Price said. "Plus it was on TV." said. Thus it was on it. This evening's match-up would put Southwest Missouri State coach Keith Guttin at 800 career victories if the Bears fair as well against the layhawks as they did in the earlier matchup. Jayhawks as they mark the second between the two clubs in 2005. The Jayhawks will look to improve over the performance they put up in their last meeting. Six Kansas errors gave the Jayhawks little opportunity to win as they dropped the game to the Bears 8-4 on March 1. to the Bears 8-4 on March 14. Freshman second baseman Matt Lawson enters tonight's game after contributing a clutch RBI double to knock in the run that clinched the series victory against Louisiana-Monroe. Lawson is hitting .232 and went 1-for-5 with an RBI and a run scored against Kansas this season. run scored against. Senior catcher Scott Nasby led the Bears in game two when he drove in five runs on two hits, including a home run against Louisiana-Monroe.

Ask any student here at Kansas, and almost all of them will say the same thing. But I love basketball, and with the NCAA Tournament more than a month past completion, the NBA playoffs are all that I have. are all that I have. There are a few good reasons to turn your attention to the NBA playoffs. The one I find works best is finding the teams with former Jayhawks on the roster. That was an easy task in round one. The only former Kansas player in the NBA whose team didn't make the playoffs was Drew Gooden of the Cleveland Cavaliers. He finished one game out. Paul Pierce and Raef LaFrentz, two college All-Americans, play for the Boston Celtics, who faced the Indiana Pacers and Scot Pollard. the Indiana Pacers and see their what a series that was. Seven games of basketball and three starters from my favorite Kansas team, with the possibility of them all being on the court at the same time. I was going for the Celtics, but seeing Reggie Miller advance in his last season wasn't all bad. They weren't the only three from the 1997 Kansas squad in the playoffs. Before they were destroyed by the Miami Heat, I could tune in to watch Billy Thomas and the New Jersey Nets. Jacquie Vaughn would have played with the Nets too, but he broke a bone in his right foot in early April. There were plenty more Jayhawks to go around. There were plenty more playoff games. The Chicago Bulls turned their miseries around and made the playoffs for the first time since Michael Jordan, thanks to young talent including Kirk Hinrich, who started every game this year for Chicago. Yes, the Bulls lost to the Washington Wizards, but Hinrich was more than fun to watch. He averaged 21.2 points for the series, including 34 points on 80 percent shooting in game two. 54 points on the 60 percent line. Turning to the Western Conference, the only two Jayhawks on the court were Greg Ostertag of the Sacramento Kings, and Nick Collison of the Seattle SuperSonics. Coincidentally their teams played against each other and Collision's Sonics came out on top after six games. Even though most Jayhawks are out, Collison and Pollard continue to carry the torch for Kansas basketball in the NBA. So what if Collision is only averaging 19.7 minutes a game and Pollard manages only 8.3. Even if you choose not to watch the NBA playoffs, take pride in the fact that our University was able to produce such fine pro athletes who helped their teams get to the biggest stage in basketball.

Will they be wearing gray pants? There are also rumors of new white helmets and special red jerseys. The new uniforms will be royal blue, said Jim Marchiony, associate athletics director, and will be accompanied by royal blue helmets—not white, as rumored. While the base color will change, the design will not. Also new next season will be a gray face mask, replacing the white one on last year's helmets, Marchiony said. Junior shortstop Destiny Frankenstein throws toward first base during a game against North Dakota State last month. Frankenstein was named Big 12 Player of the Week yesterday for her performance last week. Just a couple of those changes are actually for sure. With the designation of an official KU blue — royal blue — the football team was forced to abandon the navy blue jerseys it had worn since coach Mark Mangino arrived on campus. Kansan file photo The change in the color of the face mask brings up another popular rumor. It has been widely reported that Kansas will sport gray pants with the new color of uniform. Marchione was unsure as to whether this would happen. Mangino, as well as the Athletics Department and adidas, the department's new apparel supplier, all had a say in the design of the jersey for next season. Marchiony said he expected no major changes for the design of the uniform. Still under discussion is whether the football team will have an alternate jersey next season. If the alternate jersey is designed, it will be crimson, much like the ones worn by the men's basketball and the softball teams. Kansas "Every coach has been met with individually, and they are all part of the process," Marchionn said. All of the department's coaches have been approached about how uniforms will look next season, the first year with adidas as the uniform provider. No date has been set for revealing the new uniforms.

Frankenstein scares competition SOFTBALL BY DREW DAVISON ddavison@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER Junior shortstop Destiny Frankenstein, team co-captain, earned her first career Big 12 Player of the Week honors, the conference office announced yesterday. Frankenstein went 6-for 10 during the week of May 2-8, helping the Jayhawks sweep Iowa State in Ames, Iowa. "It's about time," coach Tracy Bunge said. Bunge said there had been several weeks this year that she felt Frankenstein was deserving of the honor. The last three weeks, in particular, Frankenstein has been consistent offensively and defensively, Bunge said. Burgie said. "I feel really honored to win. It kind of blindsided me but I'm really excited," Frankenstein said. Frankenstein drew attention this week as she led the Jayhawks to 2-1. But most importantly, Kansas moved up to No.6 in the Big 12 standings, averting the single elimination play-in game in the conference tournament. She had six hits, including one home and a perfect fielding percentage during the week. "The honor is very much deserved," Bunge said. She is the second Jayhawk to be named conference Player of the Week. Junior second baseman Jessica Moppin was honored April 26. Frankenstein, Broken Arrow, Okla., native, leads the team in batting average .360), runs (36), hits (53), home runs (14), total bases (106), slugging percentage .741), walks (22), onbase percentage .458) and assists (111). The team left for Oklahoma City yesterday afternoon for the Big 12 tournament. Frankenstein said the team needed to continue being aggressive at the plate to do well. She said Kansas could defeat anyone in the conference. Earlier this season, she broke the single-season home run record for Kansas. She passed Leah Tabb on the all-time list when she hit her 13th home run of the season on May 1 against Texas Tech. "We want to win. My goal is for us to play our best ball. If we lose, I don't want it to be because we beat ourselves," she said. "The first time we played Texas we were in awe of Osterman. We still have a great deal of respect for her but we're not in awe," Bunge said. Bunge said the team had a lot of respect for Osterman's accomplishments. The first stop for Kansas will be against No. 3 seed Texas on Thursday at 11 a.m. Frankenstein said the team couldn't let Cat Osterman, an Olympian, get in the way. She said Texas was a great team but the Jayhawks would bring their "A" game to the stadium. 1 "We have to play our game every day," she said. Bunge said the team needed to take advantage of the opportunities they got with Osterman in the circle. But the bottom line, she said, started with the pitching staff.

LOUIS — Hee-Seop Choi hit a go-ahead, three-run homer after he withstood a collision that forced Scott Rolen from the game with a sprained left shoulder in the Los Angeles Dodgers' 9-8 victory over the St. Louis Cardinals last night. Jeff Kent also homered and Cesar laturis had two hits and two RBIs, helping the Dodgers end a six-game losing streak at Busch Stadium, counting the first round of the postseason last year. Chole drove in four runs for the Dodgers, who squandered an early three-run lead but erased a four-run deficit with a six-run sixth against Matt Morris and reliever Kevin Jarvis (0-1). Rolen, who hit a two-run shot in the fourth, left in the fifth after a violent collision with Choi at first base and was to have precautionary X-rays. Rolen crashed into Choi after grounding out to pitcher Scott Erickson, whose throw pulled the first baseman into Rolen's path. Rolen, who separated his left shoulder in the 2002 playoffs, left the field holding his upper left arm, and was replaced at third base by Abraham Nunez. Reggie Sanders homered twice and had four RBIs for the Cardinals, who have homered five times in the first two games of the four-game series. Albert Pujols had an RBI single and a sacrifice fly that cut the gap to 9-8 in the sixth, giving him six RBIs in the series. But he grounded into an inning-ending double play against Giovanni Carrara with runners on first and second in the eighth. Rolen and Sanders hit consecutive homers in the fourth to tie it at 3. Sanders capped a four-run fifth with a three-run shot, his ninth, to put the Cardinals ahead 7-3. R.B. Falistrom/ THE ASSOCIATED PRESS THE GREATEST YEARBOOK YOU'VE NEVER SEEN. UNTIL NOW.

After a seventh-place finish in the Kentucky Derby, the horse owned by New York Yankees boss George Steinbrenner is now off the Triple Crown trail, sidelined yesterday with a minor foot injury that may keep him away from racing for three months. Bellamy Road came into Saturday's Derby off a dazzling 17 1/2-length victory in the Wood Memorial, and was being touted as racing's next superstar. But the strapping colt struggled as the 5-2 favorite behind long-shot winner Giacomo. Bellamy Road was a possibility for the Preakness on May 21 before the injury, discovered by trainer Nick Zito at Churchill Downs. The 3-year-old son of Concerto also will miss the Belmont Stakes, the final leg of the Triple Crown, on June 11. Zito said Bellamy Road could be back for the Travers at Saratoga on Aug. 27. "There's no doubt you will see the real Bellamy Road again." Zito told the Web sites of The Daily Racing Form and The Blood-Horse. Zito did not immediately return telephone calls for comment. His assistant, Tim Poole, confirmed the injury. The injury, a "popped splint" in racing parlance, is not considered career-threatening. The injured splint, or bone, is in the area behind Bellamy Road's left front knee. It is caused by too much stress that forces the bone to pop and results in the inflammation of the tissue around the bone. "The bad news is he popped a splint," Zito said. "The good news is the X-rays are clean otherwise, there's no fractures so she'll be back for the big races this summer." Bellamy Road won the Wood in one of the most overpowering performances ever seen in a Derby prep, a victory so thorough that jockey Javier Castellano stood up in his saddle and waved to the crowd at Aqueduct before crossing the finish line. The winning time matched a 32-year-old track record set by Riva Ridge. Zito theorized that the injury might have been developing before the Derby, and was aggrivated during the race. "You see this in young horses when there's a lot of stress on their bones," said Dr. Kristian Rhein, a New York-based veterinarian. "It's like a remodeling of the bones. There's a lot of force coming down, and the bone pops out quickly. It's like an overreaction, and it's painful." Since Zito saddled a record-tying five horses in the Derby, things have not gone well for the two-time Derby winner. Bellamy Road was his best finisher at seventh; Andromeda's Hero was eighth; High Fly was 10th; Noble Causeway was 14th; and Sun King was 15th. High Fly, Noble Causeway and Sun King remained possibilities for the Preakness, while Andromeda's Hero likely will run in the Belmont. There was a bit more shuffling Tuesday on the Preakness front, with fourth-place Derby finisher Don't Get Mad being ruled out of the race. Also, Giacomo trainer John Shirreffs was making plans to have his Derby winner vanned from Louisville, Ky., to Baltimore next week. Third-place finisher Afleet Alex was expected to arrive at Pimlico on Wednesday after a van ride from Churchill Downs. "Right now, he's doing great," trainer Tim Ritchey said. "Everything is going as planned." The Preakness field has eight probables, including five Derby horses: Giacomo, runner-up Closing Argument, Aflieet Alex, Wilko (sixth) and Greeley's Galaxy (11th). The likely newcomers are Scrapy Mal, Talibu Moonshine and Hal's Image. Possibilities include two of Zito's horses and one from D. Wayne Lukas — either Going Wild or A.P. Arrow — while trainer Bobby Frankel could go with High Limit, who finished last in the 20-horse Derby. Don't Get Mad could return for the Belmont, trainer Ron Ellis said. "He just had two major efforts in two weeks," Ellis said. "We'll take him off the trail for now, but the Belmont remains a strong consideration." Editor's note.

Junior closer Don Czyz was named Big 12 Co-Pitcher for this week. Czyz shares the honor with Will Savage of Oklahoma. The success Kansas has had is due largely to Czyz, who allowed no runs and only two hits during last week's match-ups. Czyz picked up his eighth save last Wednesday against the Wichita State Shockers and threw for his ninth and 10th saves against No.3 Texas this weekend, helping the Jayhawks take the series from the Longhorns for the first time since 1996. Czyz threw the end of game two on Saturday night and Sunday morning because of a rain delay. He came back on Sunday morning to blank the Longhorns and earned his team-leading 10th save, which also ties him for second in the Big 12. Czyz holds a 3-3 record along with a 3.47 ERA. He is third on the team with 56 strikeouts in 57 innings pitched while keeping his opponents to a .209 batting average.

Toronto Blue Jays Orlando Hudson, right, celebrates as teammate Russ Adams makes the double play on the Kansas City Royals' Angel Berroa during ninth inning in westerday in Toronto. Shea Hillenbrand hit a two-run homer for the Blue Jays, who struggled before playing the major league-worst Royals. Toronto has won two straight against Kansas City after losing their previous four games overall. Halladay (5-2) allowed one run and eight hits, while striking out five and walking none for his 18th career complete game and his first since April 29, 2005, against the New York Yankees. Mike Sweeney homered for the Royals, who have lost 16 of 19 and dropped to 8-25. The 2003 AL Cy Young Award winner followed up a brilliant three-hitter in a win over Randy Johnson and the Yankees on April 29 with a lackluster effort in a 5-1 loss to Baltimore last Wednesday. Sweeney homered in the first inning, his seventh home run in his last nine games. He has 29 of Kansas City's 108 RBIs (27 percent). Hillenbrand hit a two-run homer off Zack Greinke (0-4), his third homer of the season and his first since April 16, at Texas. Toronto's Eric Hinske tripled in the second and scored on Ken Huckaby's RBI single. Greinke allowed three runs and six hits in the first complete game of his career. The game took 1 hour, 44 minutes. Notes: Kansas City DH Ken Harvey was a late scratch because of back tightness. ... The Royals are 3-8 on their road trip. ... The Blue Jays were swept in three of their previous home series this season. ... Toronto C Gregg Zaun thinks he'll return to the lineup in two weeks. Zaun sustained acussion while breaking up a double play in Chicago. Confidence CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B The Bears are hitting just .272 as a club compared to the Jayhawks' .294 offensive effort. Junior first baseman Jared Schweitzer continues to lead the Jayhawks as he extended his hitting streak to 23 games on Sunday against the Longhorns. He leads the starters with a .356 batting average and went 5-for-11 and drove in three runs vs. Texas. Nasby is hitting .228 and went 1-for-4 with an RBI and a run scored when the Bears faced the lavhawks earlier this year. In addition to his game-saving catch at the end of game two, junior outfielder Matt Batty went 5-for-11 at the plate against Texas. Baty is hitting .316 on the season. Although the majority of the team believes that the mustaches they are growing are the reasons for their recent success, fans will not catch Baty with one. "No 'stache for me, just the chin stuff," Baty said. "I've got a dirty 'stache." Although the Jayhawks are well-aware of the last two Big 12 series approaching, they also know not to overlook the trip to Springfield. "Tyson has been really good for us, there's no doubt about it." Price said. "SMS is a big game for us, a big RPI (Ratings Percentage Index) game. If we beat these guys, they have a pretty good RPI so our RPI will go up and we have a chance to make our regional." Baty said. The first game begins at 7 p.m. at Hammons Field in Springfield, Mo. EAT NOR PORK...

THE STUDENT VOICE SINCE 1904 THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN THURSDAY, MAY 12, 2005 VOL.115 ISSUE 152 ADMINISTRATION WWW.KANSAN.COM Tuition talks pick up speed CLAS differential discussions offer new ideas for students BY NATE KARLIN nkarlin@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER A small group of students and College of Liberal Arts and Sciences officials discussed the future of differential tuition Tuesday, the first time since the student body overwhelmingly voted against the plan in February. A decision was not made on the existence of the differential tuition plan. Even if students won't vote next year, student discussions will continue. Jason Bentley, dean's advisory board member and Olathe junior said. Students recognized the need for extra money, but the student leaders and officials need to figure out how to put that money to use that would appease all concerned, he said. "It's a matter of selling the plan so it's not a burden on students," he said. "We want a plan that will make students happy. If it's no plan, then we'll respect that." Based on student feedback throughout the year, the group came to the consensus that the W. plan that will make students happy. If it's no plan then we'll respect that." Jason Bentley Dean's advisory board member plan needed to be narrowed down. Bentley said. The feedback showed various tuition fees were bombarding students.

Courtney Kublen/KANSAN THE SCARLET LIST SEX CRIMES The online registry isn't protecting communities, it's damaging lives EX By Steve Vockrodt Kansan Senior Staff Writer vockrodt@ku.edu Illustrations by Scott Drummond Jonathon Bourgeois doesn't wear a visible scarlet "A" on his chest as Hester Prynne does in Nathaniel Hawthorne's "The Scarlet Letter." He wears an "SO" that appears on the Internet and follows him around like Prynne's scarlet "A." He is one of 50 people in Lawrence whose name, photograph, offense, address and map that shows where he lives appear on the Kansas Bureau of Investigation Web site that tracks the identity and whereabouts of sex offenders. Like Prynne, Bourgeois doesn't feel he deserves his scarlet letter. But it's there and he said it has cost him six years of his life. In that span, he's been in and out of jail and found it difficult to find and keep jobs FFENDERS and reintegrate into society. Even worse, according to Bourgeois, is that his offense — being in a consensual sexual relationship with a 15-year-old girl when he was 18 — is grouped together with serious offenders like rapists and child molesters. But for Bourgeois, now 25, and the more than 3,000 registered sex offenders in Kansas, the persistent presence of the sex offender registry makes it nearly impossible to move on with their lives. To them it is a punishment beyond the debt they've already paid to society. "It amazes me that with the brilliant minds in this country, they couldn't come up with a better system," Bourgeois said. "There's been an unbelievable amount of pain in my life because I've been put on that list. It makes it 10 times harder to put behind you." Proponents of the politically popular registry say that it protects communities by warning residents of the whereabouts of sex offenders nearby. Advocates of the list say that sex offenders tend to repeat their crimes. However, a growing number of critics say that sex offender registries provide communities with little more than a false sense of security because they fail to protect them from serious offenders, and they lump minor offenders in with more serious sex criminals, and assume that sex offenders are likely to commit more sex crimes, despite of statistics that indicate otherwise. Furthermore, they are a scarlet letter that ostracizes offenders and makes it nearly impossible to rehabilitate and restart their lives by finding jobs and housing in their communities. SEE THE LIST ON PAGE 4A DEVELOPMENT Faculty living downtown: a lofty idea STUDIO 107 The new Hobbs Taylors Lofts at Eighth and New Hampshire streets will offer a unique living situation close to Massachusetts Street. BY JASON SHAAD jshaad@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER Brian Lewis/KANSAN Ann Turnbull and her husband, Rud, will have new neighbors soon. Luckily, they already know most of them. The Turnbulls, co-directors of the Beach Center on Disability, will move into one of the Hobbs Taylor lofts being built at Eighth and New Hampshire streets. The lofts will soon be home to a small community from the University of Kansas. KU faculty and professors already have bought five of the 32 lofts, said Linda Boyd, an agent for Stephens Real Estate. "It will be really nice to have University colleagues and friends close by." Turnbull said. Jim Roberts, vice provost for research, said he and his wife, Carol, had wanted to live in a loft since they lived on the East Coast when they were younger. Once they saw their daughter's loft in downtown Chicago, they sought out one for themselves. "When the first hint of the lofts appeared in the newspaper, we looked at each other and said 'Why not?,'" Roberts said. "We were one of the first to buy." from his current countryside residence in West Lawrence. Space 5D overlooks downtown Lawrence. It's a nice view, Roberts said, but he is looking forward to the ambiance of downtown more. "We'll be close to all the restaurants and stores," Roberts said. "We expect to walk to everything and just be a part of the excitement of downtown." Roberts' fifth-floor loft is far Some of the lofts could be completed by late July, Boyd said.

PAGE 1A Scarlet letter on sex offenders not helping community SO Instead, the Kansas Bureau of Investigation online sex offender registry creates misperceptions about people on the list, some of whom don't deserve it. Being a registered sex offender carries a stigma that's made it nearly impossible for them to find jobs, stable living and to be able to move on with their lives. PAGE 3A KU faculty and professors enjoy prospects of living downtown A new set of homes, the Hobbs Taylor lofts, are being built at Eighth and New Hampshire streets. But what's unique is that many of the residents will not be students; rather, it will be their teachers. Five of the 32 lofts already have been bought by KU faculty and professors. The lofts, which cost between $200,000 and $480,000, should be completed by late July.

Rvlan Howe/KANSAN Festival planners prepare for insects, larger crowds NEIL MULKA NEIL MULKA nmulka@kansan.com KANSAST WRITE WRIER Tom Fleming's memory of Big Metal Rooster's set at last year's Wakarusa Music Festival was of a domino effect. When his band started playing, there were 15 people watching. Then five minutes later, there were 100 people. Fifteen minutes later, there were about 500. "That crowd came up to us and we were instantly blewn away by that energy," said Doug Hein, Big Metal Rooster bassist. That energy was just part of the spirit of the Wakarusa Music Festival, Fleming, acoustic guitarist, said. WAKA WAKA WAKA "The excitement level is exponentially bigger than any other gig we've ever played," Matt Miner, Big Metal Rooster drummer, said. Big Metal Rooster and about 60 other bands will play on five stages at this year's festival, scheduled for June 16 to 19. Nationally known acts on the bill include Wilco, Big Head Todd and the Monsters and the String Cheese Incident. Organizers expect 12,000 to 15,000 people to be the festival each day, up from 7,500 each day last year, said Brett Mosiman, festival director. WHAT: Wakarusa Music Festival WHEN: June 16, 17, 18 and 19. WHERE: Clinton Lake Park ADMISSION: Weekend pass is $99 until June 1 and $119 June 2 and after. Single-day tickets are also available. Source: www.wakarusa.com Music lovers from as far away as Europe and Japan have bought tickets for the festival, he said. Wakara Music Festival was a lot like a family reunion for Big Metal Rooster, a band that has been playing for five years. There were familiar faces from the band's early days in 2000 watching them play. Hein said. "One of the big surprises of last year is the people I ran into that I haven't seen in years," Fleming said. "It was like a family reunion." Meeting, hanging out and watching other drummers such as Leftover Salmon's Michael Wooten and Garaj Mahal's Alan Hertz were some of the aspects Miner enjoyed about the festival, he said. "It was the first experience being shoulder to shoulder to those bands that we looked up to for a long time." Miner said. An unpleasant experience of last year's festival was provided by chickers — tiny biting insects that live in the grass and leave itchy bites. "A lot of people never experienced chiggers before," Hein said. "The chiggers were terrible." To address this problem there will a nature expert on hand to help people fight off chiggers and address other nature concerns, Mosiman said. He recommended wearing socks and shoes and not sleeping in the grass where chiggers live. There is also advice on how to prevent chigger bites on the Wakarusa Music Festival's Web site, http://www.wakarusa.com. On May 29, Big Metal Rooster will play a similar festival called May Daze in Strasburg, Colo. After that festival, the band will go on a seven-day tour of the southeast United States and then return to Lawrence to perform at the music festival's pre-party shows at Liberty Hall, 642 Massachusetts St., and The Bottleneck, 737 New Hampshire St. - Edited by Kim Sweet Rubenstein Stepin' to get the word out diario Courtney Kuhlen/KANSAN Brittani Perry, Houston, Tex., sophomore, performs in a step routine on Wescoe Beach with three fellow Delta Sigma Theta sorority sisters.

Each colored section represents a different food group and the proportion that it should make up of a person's diet. Walk like a nutritionist BY TY BEAVER tbeaver@hansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER A new food pyramid was released by the U.S Department of Agriculture last month. Whether students will use it is yet unknown. Carrie Warner, St. Louis junior, saw the pyramid when it was released last month and was glad to see an emphasis on exercise to lose weight among the other changes made. Because the tool emphasizes exercise along with a healthy diet, Ann Chapman, Watkins Memorial Health Center dietician, said she likes to think of it more as a food and activity ornamid. "A lot of people think dieting is enough, but it isn't," she said. An online aspect of the pyramid, at www.mypyramid.gov, gives users the opportunity to make a personal pyramid for them to use in regards to their own lives. To apply the pyramid to a person's lifestyle, the USDA developed the Web site so anyone can input their age, gender, weight and activity level to determine what they should eat and how much to exercise. There's even a function online that allows people to track what they ate during the day and determine where they need to improve their diet, Chapman said. Chapman said she'd already had a positive response from the students she saw for appointments. Students are amazed when they see how they can manage their own health, she said. The online aspect of the pyramid may be a disadvantage to those without computer skills or access, but she doesn't think students will be at a disadvantage, she said. In his work with student athletes, Doug Clark emphasizes the importance of eating right and exercising. The assistant coach for Kansas track and field said he thought the new pyramid, with its online presence, will make health awareness easier. "Anything that is interactive increases the chance of it being used," he said. the chance of being used. We all College students are surrounded by media that encourages them to eat and live unhealthy lives. Serving sizes also have increased, causing people to eat more than they would in the past, he said. A healthy message in the media makes healthy living competitive, whether it's an advertisement or Web site. Clark said. Clark was also impressed by the personalized nature of the new pyramid. No longer do students have to take time to visit a dietician or trainer to see what they need to do. Despite the improvements, Warner isn't convinced that students will use the pyramid more. Only students who were active in a healthy lifestyle before will look into the changes, she said.

THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN thanks you for all your hard work 4A THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN SEX CRIMES THURSDAY, MAY 12, 2005 SEX In a situation like that, I don't consider that to be a sexual offender. I'm more concerned about pedophiles; I'm more concerned about serial rapists, people of that nature." Rep. Tom Sloan Kansas representative FFENDERS The List CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A CAN THEY BE TRUSTED? The sex offender registry has gained repeated front-page attention in Lawrence because of the state's plan to release Leroy Hendricks — a 70-year-old repeat child molester — to live in Lawrence after leaving the Larned State Hospital where he was confined for 10 years after he completed his prison sentence. Hendricks once said his death was the only guarantee that he would stop molesting children. But he is still alive and could live in Lawrence under 24-hour surveillance. A group of outraged Lawrence parents started a petition to ask that Hendricks be moved elsewhere. Ironically, if Hendricks comes to Lawrence, his address won't be disc closed because his crimes occurred before 1994, when the state law mandating the sex offender registry took effect. But to Stephen McAllister, professor at the University of Kansas School of Law, the inaccuracy of the list detracts from its stated purpose. Bourgeois and 50 other Lawrence residents won't be as lucky. Their pictures and addresses appear online every day. many other sex offenders aren't even on the registry, such as those who haven't yet been caught or those who were convicted before 1994 when the law went into effect and don't have to register in Kansas, like Hendricks. ! McAllister successfully defended before the U.S. Supreme Court the constitutionality of the Kansas law that kept Hendricks and other dangerous sex offenders locked up in mental hospitals after they had completed their prison sentences. However, he said as a listing of potential offenders the list was woefully incomplete and even failed to keep track of offenders who were on it. "If they want to move to Utah, it's very hard to keep track of them," McAllister said. "The problem is you have to have accurate information, and that's very hard to do." Furthermore, McAllister said ARE THEY ALL SEX OFFENDERS? Critics say that a bigger problem with the list is that it combines minor sex offenders with serious ones, which makes the list impractical for deciding who on the list is a threat and who is not. Bourgeois said that he was an example of an offender who posed no risk to the community. He was 17 years old when he started dating his 15-year-old girlfriend in Wellsville. Their relationship became illegal under Kansas law when he turned 18. Police searched his car during a traffic stop in Olathe and found letters he had written to his girlfriend that contained sexual references. "It was a love letter, how I felt about her, what I wanted from our relationship," Bourgeois said. "The sexual reference was brief, offhand and sort of a joke, but it was enough for them to ask her about it." parents didn't want to press charges, the state booked him for indecent liberties with a child. He pled down to a lesser charge of solicitation. He said he took the deal because he was scared, confused and thought that the plea bargain would make the problem go away sooner. Even though his girlfriend's Six years later, Bourgeois is still on the list and still deals with the consequences that accompany it. Bourgeois said that the KBI registry doesn't tell people who the real threats are ped o ph i les, rapists and multiple offenders — as opposed to those like him with more minor offenses. "Call me a jerk, or a felon even, but throwing me in the same category with them?" Bourgeois said. Another sex offender, on the list, "Aaron," who agreed to be quoted only if he name is not used, said that including minor offenders diluted the purpose of the list. "By populating the list with people like me, or the 18-year-old who was dating the 15-year-old, the list is perhaps doing an injustice to us while failing to do its purpose to do justice to the rest of society because of its length and basic accuracy deficiencies," he said. "Remember the story of the boy who cried wolf? "Perhaps a severity grading scale should be assumed for the list. Short of that, leaving those who represent little or no risk to society off the list would seem the best way to handle the situation." he said. Proponents of the registry said that trying to assess risklevels for offenders was dangerous. Laura A. Ahearn, executive director of Parents for Megan's Law, which lobbied for passage of the federal law that encourages states to have registries, said she was vehemently opposed to including risk-assessment factors on public registries. She cited examples of offenders with lesser prior offenses who went on to commit more serious sex crimes. She also said the devastating impact the sex crimes had against the victim were reason enough to track all sex offenders. "They're now being exposed for who they are," Ahearn said. "Our position is when you've committed a sex crime, you have left a mark on a person's life forever." Rick Fischli, director of sexual offender management for the Kansas Department of Corrections, said the state could not reasonably assess each offender on a case-by-case basis and determine which ones were a risk to re-offend. "Separate out what is serious and not so serious is very difficult," Fischli said. "It's really tough to pinpoint on an individual basis to find out who is dangerous and who isn't." Fischli said that when he worked as a parole officer in the department of corrections, he saw some minor offenders transform into serious offenders. He also said some of the crimes listed on the registry resulted from plea bargains and didn't adequately indicate the severity of their crimes. "I can tell you that some people who were convicted of indecent solicitation of a child committed power rape of someone who was under 16," Fischli said. The registry law exists across all 50 states in large part because legislators find that it's a law that makes them look good politically, McAllister said. Rep. Tom Sloan (R-Lawrence) said he favored keeping the registry to protect communities, but didn't consider a case such as Bourgeois' one that should be on the registry. But even some politicians question the all-encompassing nature of the law. "It's a very tough-on-crime position to take," he said. "In a situation like that, I don't consider that to be a sexual offender," Sloan said. "I'm more concerned about pedophiles; I'm more concerned about serial rapists, people of that nature." He said, "16-, 17-, 18-year-old boys and girls, they're having sexual relations, and I don't consider that to be a sexual offender situation, certainly not in the case of this list." Wes Crenshaw, a Lawrence author and psychologist who works primarily with victims and their families, but has also worked with intra-familial sex offenders, agreed that the list was too broad and feared the public wouldn't know how to reasonably consume it. "Lesser offenders don't deserve to be on that list," Crenshaw said. "It serves to dilute the purpose of that list." "The problem with that approach is it is all-inclusive,"Crenshaw said. "My worry about it is I don't trust the list to do me any good." Crenshaw said he never bothered to look at the KBI registry until the emergence of recent media reports about Hendricks, the repeat sex offender moving to Lawrence. Once he checked the list, he discovered that one registered sex offender lived across the street from his office. He wasn't sure if he was supposed to act differently or how he could assess whether the offender was any sort of a risk. He said that offenders like Bourgeois didn't need to have the community watching him. Even Charles Branson, Douglas County district attorney, said that the scope of the list might be too wide. "Does the list being all encompassing lessen the purpose of the list? Maybe," Branson said. But Whitney Watson, spokesperson for Kansas Attorney General Phill Kline, said that keeping a broad range of criminals on the list was necessary because of the nature of sex offenders and their tendency to repeat their crimes. DIFFERENT THAN OTHER CRIMINALS? "We're in favor of this because it helps identify those individuals whose crimes tend to be repeated," Watson said. "The recidivism rate for sexual offenses is proof enough for the need of a sex offender registry." But the U.S. Department of Justice reports that only five out of every 100 sex offenders will repeat the same crime compared with six out of 100 nonsexual criminals who will reoffend. That means of Lawrence's 50 sex offenders, between two to three are statistically apt to reoffend. For Branson, that's threatening enough to keep the scope of the registry wide enough to include even minor offenders. "There's still a large number of crimes that are committed by strangers," Branson said. "The goal is to try and have a mechanism to prevent things from happening." Fischli, the director of sex offenders at the department of corrections, agreed it was appropriate to single out all sex offenders to protect a small number of potential victims. "I think that there are times when a society has to do things in an attempt to make the innocent more safe at the expense of the guilty," Fischli said. The list acted as a deterrent to potential criminals, Watson said. "One would think that it helps prevent a sex offender from preying on little children when he knows his identity and address are out there on the Web," Watson said. "It should also be effective as parents of children can become better informed about what potential dangers to their children may be living in the vicinity." Jennifer Andalikiewicz Lori Bettes Kerrey Brennen Dana Brown Robin Conner Lauren Dorweiler Anne Glavinich Rupal Gor Sarah Klittich Ashley Knight Stephanie LeClaire Ashley Male But McAllister said that the list wouldn't do much to prevent such crimes because so many sex crimes go unreported that the list is not indicative of precisely who commits them. Only one in every four rapes and sexual assaults are reported to law enforcement, according to the Crime Victims Council, a non-profit victims rights advocacy group. Of sexually abused children in grades five through 12, fewer than half of the boys and only three out of every 10 girls report the crime. Crenshaw agreed that the list would mislead the public into thinking that they knew where all potential criminals were. "I don't want the registry to create false security," Crenshaw said.

We need to teach our kids what they need to know from an early age: That certain behaviors are simply wrong, no matter who is doing them, and to tell us when they happen." Yvonne Cournoyer, program director for Stop It Now!, a nationwide group that offers counseling to those who fear they might become sex offenders, said the list by itself wasn't protecting the community because so many people are not on it. "It creates a big sense of," if someone is not on that list, I don't need to worry about them, and that's a big fallacy." Cournoy said. McAllister said that some offenders would continue to commit their crimes even if they knew they were being watched, and that the list only told the public where they lived, not what they actually did. Critics of the list also argue that the public knowing that an offender lives nearby doesn't do much to protect them anyway. Jonathon Bourgeois Registered sex offender The registry won't reveal where they work, either. But for many of the registered sex offenders, the registry makes a job difficult to come by, even as a condition for their parole. "A lot of them are going to reoffend even if it's known," McAllister said. "All it tells you is where they live, not where they're going to be." UNEQUAL OPPORTUNITY EMPLOYMENT Bourgeois said it was the stigma he faced as a registered sex offender that made it nearly impossible to get a job. Because he was required to disclose his offense to employers, he found it difficult to be taken seriously by those he interviewed with, especially when they discovered the offense involved a child. L" When asked on an application bother, he had It's demoralizing. It makes you feel like other people think you're a degenerate." ive difficulty finding a handlord willing to been convicted of a felony, he would write. "Yes, will discuss in interview." He said it always came up in the interview, and employers would not react favorably when they learned that his felony was sexual in nature, and more so when they learned the technical charge involved a child. "If you have a pile of applications and you have 15 people applying for one job and you've written that you're a sex offender, you go to the bottom of the pile." Bourgeois said. And when they discussed it in the interview? offense,' you could see the way they would react, and you would know," Bourgeois said, his voice trailing off. Another convicted sex offender who lives in Lawrence said he encountered trouble keeping jobs when his coworkers learned about his criminal past from the registry. "Paul," who asked that his real name not be used for this story, said that after his conviction for aggravated indecent liberties with a child, he lost his job as a telemarketer when a female co-worker discovered his conviction on the Web site. He was fired one day after she complained to management. "As soon as you say, 'sexual He didn't disclose his conviction when he later applied for and received a job at Wal-Mart. But management eventually found out about it and it became an issue at work, he said. "She said she didn't feel safe at work," Paul said. "I looked through all their policies; the only thing you had to report was for drugs. In Kansas, you can get fired for anything." "I do believe it affected job promotion and pay." he said. SO "Everything REJECTED I did wrong was looked at with a magnifying glass. I wanted to work in sporting goods but you can't sell guns when you have a felony. Even though I knew every computer system there, I couldn't take a promotion." He eventually grew tired of his dead-end status at Wal-Mart and quit. He now works in construction in Lawrence, where he said no longer had to worry about job "I'm pissed off at the world at this point," he said. map makes the offender an outcast in the neighborhood. Many don't feel welcome and have difficulty finding a landlord willing to security related to his offense now that he holds a union card. Crenshaw, the then apist, said a rocky and inconsistent job situation was dangerous for sex offenders and made it more difficult to return to their normal lives. "If people can't get jobs, then they suffer, and their family suffers," Crenshaw said. "Moreover, joblessness can be a significant contributor to further antisocial behavior. Working is a key to rehabilitation." Stacey Mann, advocacy services coordinator for the Kansas Coalition Against Sexual and Domestic Violence, said it was inappropriate for sex offenders like Bourgeois to blame their plight on the registry. "That is a concern and a problem that all sex offenders face," Mann said. "Mone convictions are public record, regardless of it being a sex offense or being on a registry." weren't any different. Branson, the district attorney, said all criminals had to face the prospect of disclosing their criminal background to a prospective employer, and sex offenders don't think that's different from any other person who has committed a felony," Branson said. "The moral of that is: If you're worried about getting a job in the future, don't commit a crime now." Fischli, the corrections specialist, agreed that there would be some show that they had changed from the time they had been convicted. "For most jobs, it really comes down to the offender articulating where he is now as opposed to where he was then," Fischli said. lease to them. It doesn't get much easier when the offender seeks a place to live. The stigma of being a sex offender in a community and having the residence appear on a lease to them Teresa Jacobs, program HOME ISN'T WHERE THE SEX OFFENDER IS Teresa jacobs, program manager for the Jacob Wetterling Foundation — a victims rights organization named after an 8-year-old Minnesota boy who disappeared in 1989 — said the inability to maintain a steady living environment was a danger to the offender and the community. "The less stable the living situation, the more at-risk they are to re-offend." Jacobs said. Bourgeois didn't re-offend, but he said finding a place to live was infuriating. When he was released from the correctional facility, he couldn't immediately find a landlord who would approve his rental application. He bounced around from one friend's house to another, never staying in one place for long. STILL THERE McAllister said His transience prevented him from receiving mail from the KBI that was supposed to track where he was. This made him automatically in violation of his registration. Once he finally did find a place to live, he was arrested for failing to keep up with his registration. despite many problems with the sex offender registry law, the list isn't going away anytime soon because it's too popular politically. However, Rep. Sloan said that even with its benefits, he didn't rule out the possibility that the list might need to be altered somewhat. "It serves the public by giving them some notice," Sloan said. "Whether the list is updated regularly enough or accurate enough, that's something that technically needs to be addressed." Even with its shortcomings, district attorney Branson said they pailed in comparison to the possibility of even one more child falling victim to a sex offender. "There are few crimes out there that evoke a response from the public like sex crimes," Branson said. "There's not a community outcry that there is a theft offender next door." As for Bourgeois, he still lives in Lawrence where he is engaged. His fiancée is four years younger than he is, a larger age difference than the one that got him arrested at age 18. "That age separation means nothing now, but I still get lumped together with these other sex offenders," Bourgeois said. He also has a two-and-a half year old son. He works construction in Kansas City and hopes to save enough money to go to school. He is off parole and has paid his final court fees. Bourgeois said he was close to finally moving forward with his life, but having his name and photo on the list — his scarlet letter — was one hurdle he couldn't quite leap over. He was recently brought in for questioning by Lawrence police who were investigating an incident where a man exposed himself to young girls in a nearby park. Bourgeois said investigators told him it was routine procedure to question all sex offenders in the area. Although he was quickly cleared of involvement, he said the stigma of his scarlet letter was still hurtful. "It's demoralizing." Bourgeois said. "It makes you feel like other people think you're a degenerate." Right now, he's working to get the offense itself expunged from his record. "I can get it expunged next year. It would be nice not to have to deal with it anymore," he said. Through it all, he has never visited the KBI Web site to look at his own name and picture on the list. "I told myself I didn't need it," Bourgeois said. "I know what's happened in my life and I know what I've done. I felt it would lend credibility to it, which it doesn't have." — Edited by Azita Tafreshi Mass Street Music 1347 Massachusetts, Lawrence, KS 785.843.3535 www.massstreetmusic.com Giant Graduation Sale May 7th-14th Fender Michael Kelly Epiphaea AKG windsor guitar system 50% off aguilar Ibanez Taylor Martin & Co EST. 1933 DEERING QUALITY BANJOS CRATE BOSS 30-60% off!

Some professional school students who would have had to pay the CLAS fees did not like that plan because they would not benefit from the financial aid, according to a previous article in The University Daily Kansan. The group discussed not enacting the college tuition plan until the five-year fixed tuition plan had begun in Fall 2007, Bentley said. By that time, students would not have to pay increased tuition each year at the University of Kansas. But the group understands that if students are going be charged more money, then student leaders need to find out what exactly it is they want. Bentley said. The plan's future, especially next year, will be taken slowly, said Kim Wilcox, dean of liberal arts and sciences. "That's what we heard over and over; too much tuition, too quick," he said. Under the fixed tuition plan, students would not see a tuition increase during their four years at the University. The fixed tuition plan would last for five years beginning in Fall 2007. One of the main issues that will be further addressed will be how to reformulate the financial aid and scholarship plan. "That needs to be a major piece," he said. "He put so much emotion and energy into it. I don't think it would be possible without him." Jason Bentley Jason Bentley Dean's advisory board member on Kim Wilcox, dean of CLAS "Let's be very systematic,very careful,very thorough on how we approach things," he said. Bentley said he thought the real fate of the plan would depend on Wilcox being hired as provost for Michigan State University. One falafel or two? "He put so much emotion and energy into it. I don't think it would be possible without him." Bentley said. Bentley said Wilcox reacted in a way that respected the students' opinions. "The way he responded proved he is a friend to the students and losing him would be a heavy blow," he said. Wilcox said the plan would be able to survive without him because he had always relied on student advice and leadership. He said he would not know if he would be hired at Michigan State until June. The college has also managed to find its student voice over the past year and a half, he said.

Without a yard or outdoor mailbox, residents can travel and not worry about yard maintenance. Boyd said. The properties range from 1,400 square feet to 2,400 square feet and cost between $200,000 and $480,000. Boyd said the lofts appealed to University faculty because they were travel-friendly. Marian Hukle, coordinator of the bioscience initiative program, and her husband Jack Porter, chairman of the department of mathematics, will move to a loft on the third floor of the Hobbs Taylor building from their home in West Lawrence. Hukle said she would like the travel perks of living in a loft. "If we want to travel, we can go and just lock the door." Hukle said. "We already drive downtown every weekend.

The windows and the building are well-insulated, she said. But Hukle said it wouldn't matter if they weren't. "Living around young people will keep me alive." Hukle said.

THURSDAY, MAY 12, 2005 LAWRENCE W A RECYCLING 832-3010 PAGE 9A LAWRENCE SMITH PRODUCTION & RECYCLING 832-3030 GO-R WWW WWW.KANSAN.COM ▼ GUEST COMMENTARY VALERIE TARBUTTON opinion@kansan.com University disregards safety issues I am a resident of Gertrude Sellards Pearson Hall. I am also an outraged resident of GSP Hall. Before I moved into the residence hall, there were a few things I was anxious about: sharing a bathroom with a whole floor of other girls, eating questionable residence hall food and what my roommate would be like. Never once did I think that I would have to fear for my safety on a regular basis. At the beginning of the year, I came home from work to find the parking lot fenced off with police tape and frantic girls chattering on their cell phones about how a resident was held at gun point and had her car stolen. From my residence hall room window, I watched again as the police came to investigate another incident involving a knife in the shadowy secluded parking lot. When I first was considering the University of Kansas, my parents and I went on a tour of the residence hall and one of the things we heard over and over again from the housing department was that the University planned on putting in cameras in the parking lot. I was unable to understand how two violent encounters could happen and we still weren't getting cameras; I went to the Parking Department's open meeting in October with my concerns. According to them, it was the police department that was responsible for the cameras. Instead of getting cameras, we got an extension of lawwalk to Corbin Hall. There, I was told that it wasn't the Parking Department's problem. Last week I came home to see three or four police officers on my floor and nervous girls talking of a drug overdose involving two residents of my hall, one from my floor. Since all of these incidents, we have had absolutely no action or precautions taken to prevent further terrifying encounters. There were no floor meetings to talk about safety, no noticeable increase in police patrolling the parking lots and no one to come and talk to us about what to do in case we find ourselves in a similar situation. We have a problem here at GSP/Corbin. Unlike most problems at the residence halls, there is more at stake than the discomfort or inconvenience of the residents. This is something very serious that no one in University administration seems to put as any type of priority. Something needs to change, and yes, it will take time and money. Honestly, I would be willing to pay more for my residence hall if I knew for a fact that I could feel safe living there. Part of the freshman experience is not clutching your keys sharp edge out sprinting from the parking lot scared out of your mind that someone will try and assault you. We not only deserve what we were promised, but have a real and immediate need. I'm not saying that cameras in the parking lot could have prevented any of the safety problems that we have had here at GSP/Corbin. Yet in light of the several dangerous incidents here at my residence hall, it is time for the University, the Parking Department and the Housing Department to step it up and start caring about the safety of the residents here at my residence hall. - Tarbutton is an Overland Park freshman * SACK'S PERSPECTIVE STAR TRIBUNE BOOK The IVORY-BIILLED WOODS-WRECKER BUSH LOGGING POLICY Steve Sack/STAR TRIBUNE --- Columnist doesn't regret taking diverse viewpoint TIERRA TALKS "When we are moving at the speed of life, we are bound to collide with each other." — from the Crash movie trailer. TIERRA SCOTT tscott@kansan.com This has been a semester full of surprises, some were expected, others were not. I have concluded that through my concluded that although the opinion columns, I may have managed to land a spot in the University's top-10 list of most hated and controversial University Daily Kansan writers. It seems that some of the student body was displeased — to put it mildly — with the content of my columns. Despite those reactions, I believe I have fulfilled the duties assigned to me at the beginning of this semester. As an opinion columnist, you have the right to be biased. At the same time, I tried to be as straightforward as possible and leave little room for miscommunication or misunderstanding. As fate would have it, some readers managed to overreact to each of my articles because they refused to take the time to read the column fully and carefully and to give it serious thought. I am a confident individual, and therefore did not react negatively toward an e-mail — in response to my column on rap music — telling me that I am an ignorant racist who has disgraced the University and needs to go back to Africa. As CNN reminds us, readers relinquish the full story for the convenient piecemeal observation. I respect a reader's opinion, but only when they have bothered to examine the entire column. In fact, I would like to thank those who wrote to me for giving me the motivation that I needed to continue with my articles. Simply reading the headline or portions of a column with which you agree is not what I expect from enlightened University students. When a publication lacks diversity, then some issues are not given the multiple perspectives that they deserve. I applied to be an opinion columnist to add some diversity to the Kansan, not to become the most controversial writer of the semester. a little bit by sharing my outlook on some issues that are important to me. I decided to spice things up If I did not address issues that you thought were important and you thought that my articles were ludicrous, then you, too, can become an opinion columnist. Simply go the Kansan located in Stauffer-Flint and follow the road to writing guest columns — we need the diversity. I had fun writing the columns, but I also learned a number of lessons. As the recently released film Crash warns, "When we are moving at the speed of life, we are bound to collide with each other." More than ever, I am convinced that the University needs to take more concrete steps to better prepare us for those "collisions." And because it is not only an institutional responsibility, we need to take individual steps as well. in order for this campus community to grow and for us to prepare ourselves for the world that lies beyond "the Hill," students must learn to respect each other's opinions no matter how unusual they might be. The truth is, the University will be your home until you graduate or as long as you are here. Therefore, it is up to you to make the most out of an exceedingly rare experience while you are here. These few years are unlike any that you will ever encounter. Attending college is not entirely about gaining book knowledge; it is also about gaining life lessons through the people that we encounter. So, be prepared for those collisions.

CORPRATOCRACY STEPHEN SHUPE sshupe@kansan.com Media bloats U.S. foreign policy acts On a quiet day in Washington, D.C., if the weather is right and you're out and about, you can witness a strange spectacle. A caravan of 32 cars rolls down Pennsylvania Avenue. Near the back, machine guns stick out of a black SUV. As the vice president sits comfortably behind tinted windows, his movements are marked by the appearance of erect roadblocks. I was talking with a professor friend of mine recently, and he said, "This is the direction now." By that he meant: The United States is becoming a quasi-fascist state. Now before you sit down, dear reader, to remind me in a strongly-worded letter that "Bush won the election" and I'm "anti-American," please read on. None of the issues discussed here on the 2004 ballot, including Dick Cheney's travel habits. And I'm not anti-American. On the contrary, I want to stem the ominous tide. Lets start 10 months ago, with the death of Ronald Reagan. The media coverage, as you'll recall, was enormously positive: America had lost a great hero. Missing in the coverage was some perspective on what it meant for a nation to consider such a man one of its heroes. After all, Reagan was the guy who engaged in international terror campaigns throughout the 1980s. A journalist returning from Guatemala reported: "One is tempted to believe that some people in the White House worship Aztec gods — with the offering of Central American blood." Later that summer in 2004, the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth made minced meat out of Democratic presidential candidate John Kerry. The nation seemed evenly split on whether the Vietnam War had been a good idea. The war under question had nearly wiped out the country of South Vietnam in the 1960s. As many as four million Indo-Chinese perished, and tens of millions more were displaced from their homes. Even so, Americans continued to wrestle with the moral questions presented by the conflict. Did we care about a few million peasants who we killed or not? Aside from Iraq, we could also discuss acts of aggression by the current administration. The CIA under President Bush government backed a coup to remove the democratically elected president of Venezuela, and the White House supported the overthrow of the president of Haiti, Jean Bertrand Aristide. The difference between the mainstream media coverage at home and the actual situation on the ground was the difference between night and day. I refuse to believe that everyone on the right of the political spectrum knows about these events and supports them. Maybe that's a part of growing up that I missed. But if not, this leaves the rest of us with an opportunity. We have to create a forum for unlimited debate, so that all issues are on the table. To do that, we're going to have to get away from the corporate media and expand alternative resources. Start by inviting friends over to watch CSPAN, where viewers can hear voices as Noam Chomsky and Chalmers Johnson. Go to democracynow.org, which covered the story of the U.S. overthrow of President Aristide of Haiti. Publish your own rage and send it to prisoners at Leavenworth. Things are going to get worse before they get better. We could be bombing Iran by the time class resumes in the fall. We'll feel small at first and people will call us naive. But remember: In 1965, 100 people gathered on the Boston Common to protest the Vietnam War. On October 15, 1969, about two million people assembled in towns that had never seen an anti-war protest. And just six years later, the bombs had stopped dropping, the children had stopped crying and the soldiers had returned home. ♦ Shupe is an Augusta graduate student in journalism.

MAY 12. 2005 The Force is with the newest 'Star Wars' film BY STEPHEN SHUPE sshupe@kansan.com JPLAY MOVIE REVIEWER The magic is back. George Lucas' spectacular "Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith," which opens in theaters worldwide a week from today, recaptures the high-energy fun that made this series so popular in the first place. It's the best episode after "A New Hope" and "The Empire Strikes Back." Providing a bridge between Lucas' prequels and his beloved original trilogy, this chapter sheds light on why Anakin Skywalker became Darth Vader. In the thrilling opening sequence, Jedi fighters battle Separatist droids above the cityplanet of Coruscant. There's an interactive feel to the whizzing ships and dogfight aerial maneuvers as Anakin and Obi-Wan Kenobi race to rescue Chancellor Palpatine from the clutches of the evil General Grievous. Count Dooku also returns in a scene that mirrors the climax of "Return of the Jedi" and sets a course for Anakin's seduction by the dark side of the Force. General Grievous is one of two super villains who dominate "Revenge of the Sith." A human-robot hybrid with aunchback and a terrible cough, this computer-generated baddie should join the ranks of such series favorites as Labba the Hutt and Boba Fett. PETER C. But the real star of the show is Ian McDiarmid as Palpatine, who offers such dubious advice as, "Good is a point of view, Anakin." McDiarmid exudes operatic evil in a succession of atmospheric scenes that are among the darkest of the saga. His transformation from the soft-spoken chancellor to the cackling, ashen-faced emperor is absolutely chilling. Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith ★★★1/2 (out of four) Written and director, by George Lucas Rating: PG-13 Running time: 140 minutes As Anakin, Hayden Christensen is less whiny and more brooding this time around. When freed from the constraints of romantic melodrama, Christensen shows real acting chops. Ewan McGregor also fares better, finally coming into his own in the long shadow of Alec Guinness's original Obi-Wan. Overall, the film represents a triumphant comeback for Lucas, who seems intent on playing out the wildest fantasies of the Jedi faithful. Obi-Wan squares off against General Grievous, who can wield four lightsabers with two sets of robotic hands. Anakin and Obi-Wan clash in an exhilarating duel on the volcanic planet of Mustafar. And when Anakin finally catches that first breath of mechanically-filtered air through the mask of Darth Vader, it's not just a great "Star Wars" moment. It's an all-time great movie moment. “Revenue of the Sith” isn't entirely devoid of the problems that plagued "The Phantom Menace" and "Attack of the Clones." Christensen and Natalie Portman suffer through a few early scenes. But the artificial tone of the previous episodes is gone. This is an action-packed, emotionally-rich and thematically-ambitious piece of cinema. Hayden Christensen stars as Anakin Skywalker, a Jedi who turns to the dark side in the new "Star Wars: Episode III — Return of the Sith." It's also the culmination of a life's work for Lucas, who evidently still has a few surprises left in him. His film isn't perfect, but it's everything "Star Wars" fans hoped it would be. — Edited by Jennifer Voldness Photo courtesy Lucasfilm Ltd. of the Sith NATION Small plane causes post-9/11 Washington to panic BY DONNA CASSATA THE ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON — A small plane strayed within three miles of the White House yesterday, leading to frantic evacuation of the Executive Mansion and the Capitol with military jets scrambling to intercept the aircraft and firing flares to steer it away. route from Pennsylvania to an air show in North Carolina, were taken into custody after their flight sparked a frenzy of activity that tested the capital's post-Sept. 11 response system. Department spokesman, said. The government decided not to press charges after interviewing the men and determining the incident was an accident. "They were navigating by sight and were lost," Kevin Madden, Justice Officials had been concerned because the plane appeared to be "on a straight-in shot toward the center of the Washington area," Terrance W. Gainer, Capitol Police Chief, said. The White House raised its threat level to red — the highest — for eight minutes, spokesman Scott McClellan said. Vice President Dick Cheney, first lady Laura Bush and former first lady Nancy Reagan, overnighting at the White House for a special event, were moved to secure locations. A pilot and student pilot, en President Bush, biking with a high school friend at the Patuxent Wildlife Research Center in Beltsville, Md., was unaware of the midday, 15-minute scare as it was occurring. His security detail knew of the raised threat level. At the Capitol, lawmakers, tourists and reporters raced out of the building, dodging the speeding motorcades of Latin American leaders who had been meeting with members of Congress. House Speaker Dennis Hastert, R-Ill., was hustled to a secure location. Police, rushing to get House Minority leader Nancy Pelosi out of the building, lifted her out of her shoes. Armed security officers raced through the Capitol shouting for people to leave. The incident began at 11:28 a.m., when Federal Aviation Administration radar picked up the aircraft, a small two-seater Cessna 152 with high wings. Gainer said the first alert went out when the plane was 21 miles—17 minutes —from the city.

Behind , and E!" 85 Michael Dr. HALF MAN, HALF AMAZING FRANK TANKARD ftankard@kansan.com Age doesn't quell urge to go to the 'extreme' As we walked into HyVee, we knew it would be a special night. A hand-drawn sign near the entrance said "Extreme Savings Zone." We were there for three things: jalapeños, milk and cigarettes. These were the ingredients for our "extreme challenge." We weren't quite sure what it would be yet. All we knew was that we wanted to test our physical limits. We wanted to puke. We wanted to cry. My friends and I have always enjoyed these kinds of challenges. It's not just us. It's our generation, it's college, it's America. Just turn on the TV. Shows such as "jackass," "Survivor" and Spike TV's "Most Extreme Elimination Challenge" are popular because we love seeing each other win and lose in tests of the disgusting, the dangerous and the obscene. It's the closest we can get to seeing heroes rise and fall before our eyes, like the ancient battles of the Roman Coliseum. Some of my fondest memories are from testing my limits on the track and soccer field. But there's something equally memorable that comes with creating your own challenge. There's glory in saying, "Sounds crazy, huh? Well, I did it." When professional wrestling was at the peak of its popularity and I was in middle school, a group of my friends and I formed our own professional-style wrestling league. We called it "Extreme Backyard Wrestling." We drew up our own costumes and gimnicks and powerbombed each other on a backyard trampoline. I have two loose teeth to show for it. In high school, after the movie "Fight Club" came out, we started our own fight club, which we code-named "Shag the Dingo." We'd drive to an empty parking garage or parking lot on Friday night and wait on each other with cheap kickboxing gloves that made our knuckles sore for a week. One New Year's Eve, some of my friends did the lactose challenge. Popularized on "jackass," it consists of drinking a gallon of milk in an hour without puking. It supposedly can't be done. I'll never forget the image of my noble friend, Brendan Irving, holding the empty milk jug over his head 48 minutes after the contest began, his spiky black hair shining in the moonlight, yelling, "Every man does one great thing in his life!" and slamming the jug to the ground. This week I felt the old familiar pang, the urge to go out there and tear it up. Perhaps it's the ancient blood of the Celtic warrior coursing through my veins that makes me feel this way. Or maybe I just needed a distraction from a heavy load of tests and papers. I knew as I rode my bike to my friends' apartment that I would find willing accomplices on my mission of self-destruction. I was right. I found them watching TV on the couch. We brainstormed for a while and decided that the contest would have three parts. We bought supplies at the store and the challenge was on. My seventh-grade locker partner, Ben Suh, deemed it "The Inferno." Part One: And old-fashioned jalapeño eating contest. Eat an entire raw jalapeño pepper in two bites or less. The last one to take a drink wins. SEE TANKARD ON PAGE 4B It's almost cliché to have a jalapeño eating contest these days, but the old green pepper still does the trick. The first few minutes were hell for the five of us. We stared around the kitchen table at each other and saw faces gradually turning red as the heat grew on tongues and lips. Sweat ran down cheeks. Snot poured from noses. A bottle of Gatorade laughed at us from the middle of the table. After 10 minutes, the pepper's heat had mostly passed. Someone grabbed a bottle of Tabasco from the fridge, and we passed it around and drank it. Still, nobody cracked. We microwaved five spicy burrites, smothered them in disgusting spicy mustard, Siracha Hot Chili Sauce and Tabasco, and quickly ate them. All but one of us finished. Part Two: Chug a quart of milk, then get punched in the stomach. The first one to finish the milk wins, as long as you don't puke after the punch. This contest really got to me. Rob Ingersol was the clear winner, finishing the milk in 45 seconds. The instant he tossed his carton aside, the non-partisan puncher Jordan Baranowski delivered him a wallop to the stomach. Rob was unfazed. BASEBALL 14-6 'Hawks lose momentum BY MATT WILSON mwilson@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTSWRIVER Junior first baseman Jared Schweitzer extended his hitting streak to 24 games last night, but Kansas fell to Southwest Missouri State. 15-6. The Jayhawks (33-23) were behind from the start and were unable to keep the momentum gained last weekend in their series victory against Texas. The Bears grabbed a 2-0 lead in the first inning off a bases-loaded single by sophomore catcher Matt Weglarz. After Kansas cut the lead in half in the second inning on a RBI single by senior catcher Sean Richardson, SMS went back to work. The Bears scored five times in the bottom half of the frame. The rally was highlighted by a two-run double by sophomore outfielder Chris Taylor. SMS (18-29) never looked back while running away from Kansas. Three more runs in the third inning made the score 10-1. The only innings in which the Bears didn't score were the fifth and sixth. Freshman starting pitcher Tyson Corley struggled in his first start since a no-decision at Wichita State last week. He struggled mightily, only lasting 1 1/3 inning and allowing six runs. His record fell to 1-2 on the season. It wasn't just Corley who was roughed up by Bear hitting. A combination of six Jayhawk pitchers took the mound on the evening and allowed 14 earned runs on 16 hits. Kansas coach Ritch Price said he was disappointed that he didn't get a better performance from Corley. "We needed Tyson to go deep into the game so we could set up our bullpen." Price said. "He was just out of sync from the start. The Jayhawks also hurt their cause by committing two errors. “W. get a quality effort to keep on rolling,but obviously, that didn't happen." Ritch Price Kansas baseball coach Richardson and junior outfielder Gus Milner each had one misc. Kansas has racked up a Big 12 Conference-worst 103 errors this season. SMS sophomore Brett Sinkbeil earned the victory for the Bears. He pitched three innings and allowed one run while striking out three. It was his fifth victory of the year. "We wanted to get a quality effort to keep on rolling, but obviously, that didn't happen," Price said. Kansas coach Ritch Price said he was disappointed that the Jayhawks couldn't keep their momentum going. Schweitzer provided one of the few bright spots of the night for the Jayhawks. His solo home run in the fifth inning extended his school-record streak. It was his seventh homer of the year and third in four games. Price said he elected to leave pitchers Kodiak Quick and Sean Land in Lawrence. Both players could usually see some action out of the bullpen during mid-week games, but Price said he wanted to make sure they were both rested for the next conference series against Missouri. The Jayhawks will travel Friday to Columbia, Mo., for the three-game set. The matchup between the two rivals will take on added importance with the Big 12 schedule winding down. The Jayhawks sit in the eighth and final conference tournament position. Missouri is third in the conference.

The KU women's rowing team competes this weekend in the NCAA Central/Southern Regionals in Oak Ridge, Tenn. The Kansas rowing Second Varsity Eight tries to pull past Kansas State during the Kansas Cup on Saturday, April 9. The rowing team will compete in the NCAA Central/Southern Regional May 14 in Oak Ridge, Tenn. The team could potentially be competing during the week of finals as well as in the NCAA Championships held in Sacramento, Calif. The Championships are May 19-27. "It's a very stressful time for us," senior rower Erin Hennessey said. "While getting ready for Regionals, we're having to study for finals as well. It's not like we can pull all nighters and still be ready for practices." "Last year it was just like this," senior rower Ashlea Kramer said. "We're still able to keep our focus on rowing. Sometimes we're able to study on the plane, so that helps." But the team is used to this type of scheduling. They've been doing it every year. The team departs from Allen Fieldhouse at 1:45 this afternoon. The team will practice upon arrival and practice on Friday. Competition will start 9 a.m. Saturday. Heats will start in the morning with semi-finals in the afternoon. All the final competitions will be held on Sunday. When the team starts competing on Saturday, a lot depends on the first race. "One of our main goals is to come out strong in every race," senior rower Rachel Chapman said. "In our first race, we really have to come out strong because it determines our placing." The Jayhawks are entered in the First and Second Varsity Eight races, the First Varsity Four and an open four. There's about 21 teams entered in the Varsity Eight races and about 17 entered in the Varsity Four race. One of the big schools is Texas, which the team hopes to avenge. Last time they raced against each other, Kansas was ahead for the first 1000 meters before Texas took it at the end. "We have to make sure we're in the top three of the heats to set us up for the semi-finals," assistant coach Jennifer Myers said. "Centrals is good for us because we're up against a lot of good schools." Senior coxswain LeAnna Kemp feels the same way "We're definitely planning on going for Texas," senior coxswain Cristal Reed said. "We're really hoping to beat Texas this time," she said. "We have to prove to ourselves that not only we can beat them, but other bigger schools as well." For the First Varsity Eight, the team is up against Cincinnati, Indiana, Michigan State and Louisville. SEE BALANCES ON PAGE 4B A majority of qualifying for the NCAA Championships is based off of Regionals. There are only 16 spots available; 12 for team spots and four for First Varsity Eight boats.

Freshman decathlete has potential TRACK AND FIELD BY PATRICK SHEHAN pshehan@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER One quick glance at Matt Baysinger and you can tell he's an easy-going guy. Flip-flops are mandatory. Bear hugs are unavoidable within three feet of him. But under that layer of kind, inviting bravado, a passionate desire burns. "I'm a very two-faced person when it comes to competing and the rest of my life," Baysinger said. "When it comes to athletics in general, I'm a very competitive guy." Baysinger, Overland Park freshman, wasn't hand-fed the position of sprinter on the University of Kansas track and field team. His desire to compete at a collegiate level earned him a position in a freshman class of runners, a class with potential to make Kansas track and field become an elite program. By the time Baysinger competed as a senior for Blue Valley West, he knew there was more awaiting him. "I knew I wanted to run track in college, but my times weren't good enough to be a scholarship athlete," He held three individual and four relays records in high school. He narrowed it down to Kansas and Emporia State. Baysinger said he wanted to come to Kansas to become a decathlete. he said. Baysinger Earlier that semester, Paul Hefferon, then a senior at Blue Valley West, had received a scholarship at Kansas. Hefferon and Baysinger decided to be roommates. In a 700-meter time trial before winter break last year, Baysinger showed what he was made of. So he trained to be a decathlete, which was not an easy task. Training three to four hours, seven days a week stretches even the most dedicated athletes. "I ended up beating almost all of the 800-meter and 400-meter runners." Baysinger said. "I took a lot of people by surprise." "It was rough, to say the least," Baysinger said. "It took some out of me." In the first home meet of the season, the Jayhawk Invitational, Baysinger turned more heads by winning the 600-yard race. "That's when it was set in stone," Baysinger said. He continued his streak in the 600-yard race, placing third at the Husker Invitational and seventh in the Big 12 Indoor Championships. Baysinger has found older sprinters as role models, including teammates Jeremy Mims, Iowa City, Iowa, senior, and Brandon Hodges, Hot Springs, Ark., senior. "They helped me out and didn't let me slack." Baysinger said. "They really helped me with that process a lot." But there's more to the freshman than competing. His roots grow deep back into his old high school, where he is active in the community. Last semester Baysinger returned home every Monday night to lead Young Life, a Christian youth group. "I definitely would like to be helping with Young Life or ministry down the road." Baysinger said. Baysinger belongs to a freshman class with great potential. Julius "I ended up beating almost all of the 800meter and 400-meter runners. I took a lot of people by surprise." Matt Baysinger Freshman decathlete Jiles, Kansas City, Mo., freshman, earned the 2004 Missouri Track Athlete of the Year. Ekaterina Sultanova, Krasnodar, Russia, freshman, broke the women's pole vault record in her second collegiate meet. "There's going to be a lot to look forward to in the future," Baysinger said. "Me and Julius give Jeremy and Brandon a lot of crap on whose class is better." Kansas track and field fans have another three years to find out. AUTO RACING Edited by Ross Fitch Kansas City extends bid for NASCAR BY STEVE BRISENDINE THE ASSOCIATED PRESS KANSAS CITY, Kan. Other cities might have more stock car racing history, bigger international profiles, brighter star power. location than having it in the center of the United States?" But backers of a bid to win the NASCAR Hall of Fame for Kansas City, Kan. — where Kansas Speedway is entering just its fifth season of operation — said yesterday that they represented the sport's future and NASCAR's best chance to reach beyond its traditional fan base in the southeastern United States. "We are the future, and we believe we can extend the brand," said Jeff Boerger, president of Kansas Speedway. "It's now becoming an international sport, and what better Other sites NASCAR has asked to submit proposals by May 31 are Atlanta; the state of Michigan; Richmond, Va.; Daytona Beach, Fla.; and Charlotte, N.C. NASCAR could make its final decision by the end of the year. Charlotte, where many Nextel Cup teams are based, has enlisted team owner Rick Hendrick to lead its effort. Richmond, where stock car races were running two years before NASCAR's founding in 1948, has also touted its deep roots. And Daytona Beach, where NASCAR has its headquarters, also boasts the circuit's most famous race in the Daytona 500. those cities, a great sense of the past and of what NASCAR is all about," said Bob Marcusse, president and chief executive officer of the Kansas City Area Development Council. "We certainly honor that and appreciate all that has been. But we also understand that there's a future for this sport, and we look forward to being the community that best positions NASCAR for its future." "There's a great sense of history in Other sports have gone with history, though, when selecting sites for their halls: the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton, Ohio, the Basketball Hall of Fame in Springfield, Mass., and the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, N.Y. "Obviously, the other communities think we're the underdog," Boerger said. "But that's a good place to be in, because we have nothing to lose." The Kansas City area is not revealing much about its bid for the hall which would be located just east of Kansas Speedway in the booming Village West tourism and retail district. Kansas City's bid also includes the Kansas City, Mo., architectural firm HOK SportsVenueEvent and the New York-based exhibit designers DMCD, Inc. Those companies' presentations will remain secret until they are delivered to NASCAR officials, Marcusse said. "Our belief is that our customer happens to be the board of directors of NASCAR," said Marcusse, who estimated the project would cost $100 million and cover about 100,000 square feet.

The new women include three high school seniors and one transfer student from Clemson University. Shanna Bradbury, Bri Brotherson, Danielle Hermann and Whitney Winslow are the signees recruited by assistant coach and recruiting coordinator Campbell TREVOR WILSON Jen Fox, Campbell said. Brotherson will join the Jayhawks as a transfer from Clemson University. She is familiar with collegiate swimming through the Atlantic Coast Conference, so her transition between conferences will be easier. During her freshman year at Clemson, Brotherson recorded two top-three times. At the Nike Cup Preliminaries, Brotherson finished the 200 individual medley in 2.06.68 for the third-fastest time at Clemson. In the 400 individual medley, Brotherson captured a 4.32.24, the second fastest time at Clemson. Campbell said Brotherson would contribute immediately in the butterfly and individual medley events. Bradbury completed her high school swimming career in February at the Colorado High School State swim meet. The Arapahoe Warriors captured fourth place as a team at the meet, which took place in Fort Collins, Colo. Individually, Bradbury finished with a 2:10:86, which secured her seventh place overall in the 200 individual medley. She finished ninth place in the 500 freestyle with a time of 5:16.13, and also was a member of the 200-freestey relay, which finished fourth. Bradbury also competes with the Greenwood Tiger Sharks club team, and Campbell said that her versatility and variety of strokes would make her an asset to the lavahawks next season. Hermann will add depth for the Jayhawks next season in the breaststroke and individual medley events. Her high school coach, Dan Witteven, said he told Hermann to pick a place where she liked both the school and the swimming program. He said she was excited to come to Kansas. "She loved the girls she met when she visited," he said. PROMISING RECRUITS Swimmer Hometown School Events Shanna Bradbury Littleton, Colo. Arapahoe High School Individual medley, breast-stroke, 500 freestyle Bri Brotherson Grapevine, Texas Clemson University Individual medley, 200 butterfly, 100 and 200 freestyle Danielle Hermann Itasca, Ill. Lake Park High School Individual medley, breast-stroke, 200 backstroke Whitney Winslow Manhattan Manhattan High School Sprint freestyle Hermann holds six records at Lake Park High School in Itasca, Ill., and she is one of the top swimmers in the state, Witteven said. Hermann's specialties as a senior include the 200 individual medley, the 100 breaststroke and the 100 backstroke. Her fastest recorded medley time during the 2004-2005 season Source: Kansas Athletics Department was 2:05.92. In the breaststroke, Hermann swam a quick 1:05.24. Although she will be key to the individual medley and breaststroke at Kansas, Witteen既 said she also was a great backstroker. Winslow, of Manhattan, specialized in sprint freestyle events in high school under coach Jerry Carpenter. Campbell said Winslow was one of the top sprint and middle-distance freestylers in the state. He said he saw her as a Big 12 finalist. Although the Jayhawks will lose six seniors at the conclusion of the 2004-2005 school year, Campbell said the Jayhawks were optimistic that the incoming talent would accommodate the loss. Royals fall to league worst MLB Edited by Ross Fitch THE ASSOCIATED PRESS TORONTO — The Kansas City Royals were no better with a new manager. Alex Rios hit a go-ahead double, and the Toronto Blue Jays scored five times in the eighth inning to rally past Kansas City 12-9 yesterday. Less than 24 hours after manager Tony Pena resigned, the Royals dropped to a major league-worst 8-26. Kansas City had a season-high 16 hits in its first game under Bob Schaefer, but it wasn't enough. The Blue Jays rallied in the eighth on Corey Koskie's solo homer off Ambiorix Burgos (1-2), Rios' two-run double, Ken Huckaby's run-scoring bunt and Orlando Hudson's RBI double. Shea Hillenbrand homered and drove in four runs for the Blue Jays, who swept the three-game series. Pena called Stairs after stepping down late Tuesday following a 5-1 loss in Toronto. Before yesterday's game, Stairs said Pena's resignation should serve as a wake-up call. "If guys think it's going to be so easy from here on out, and continue playing the way we are, they have another think coming." Stairs said. Royals, who have lost 17 of 20. Schaefer, who had been the team's bench coach, replaced Pena on an interim basis. Miguel Batista (2-0) pitched 1 1-3 innings for the victory. Stairs were 3-for-4 with a walk and three RBIs for the Schaefer changed the lineup by making Angel Berroa the leadoff hitter, and dropping David DeJesus to second ahead of Mike Sweeney. The move worked as Toronto starter David Bush hit Berroa with the second pitch of the game before DeJesus hit an RBI double. Sweeney struck out, but Stairs hit an RBI single. CITY 44 Kansas City starter Denny Bautista walked the first batter he faced — Hudson — before Frank Catalanotto singled. Hillenbrand homered to left, giving Toronto a 3-2 lead. Aaron Harris/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Kansas City Royals interim manager Bob Schaefer walks on the field to relieve pitcher Ambiorix Burgos. MLB Tony Pena resigns Royals need major-experienced person BY DOUG TUCKER THE ASSOCIATED PRESS KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Hiring a new manager may not be as simple as finding the man the Kansas City Royals want. It will have to be someone who wants the Royals. This small-market franchise has fallen upon hard times. Deep problems may prove sobering to any would-be successor to Tony Pena, who resigned Tuesday night with the worst record (8-25) and secondlowest team payroll ($36.9 million) in the major leagues. The Royals are about to go 21 straight years without making the postseason. They lost a franchise-record 104 games in 2004. cense-record 104 games in 2004, Pena, the AL Manager of the Year after a surprising 83-79 mark in 2003, did help develop some promising pitching prospects with Zack Greinke, Runelvys Hernandez and Denny Bautista. Major league managerial experience may also be something the Royals look for, which would be an advantage for former Phillies boss Larry Bowa. Bowa was 337-308 at Philadelphia before being fired. White is another option, the gold glove second baseman who is now managing the Royals' Double-A team in Wichita. The Royals have the overall No. 2 pick in the baseball draft next month.

This means little, however, when a rivalry of this stature is involved. "In my 11 years at the Division-I level, that's the toughest place I've ever played," coach Ritch Price said of Taylor Stadium in Columbia. "That Missouri-Kansas thing is really nasty, especially in a baseball game with all of the things that can be said during the course of three hours." The Jayhawks enter the series after an impressive effort in their last Big 12 action, which resulted in a 2-1 series victory over No. 5 Texas. The Tigers enter their last home series on a losing skid, dropping five of their last seven. Before last night's setback against Southwest Missouri State, Kansas had won six of its previous seven games. Last weekend, Missouri lost two of three in its series to Nebraska. After winning game one, the Tigers led in both the second and third games of the series, but an error-plagued effort gave Nebraska the opportunity to win. Kansas, however, was charged with just four errors for the entire Texas series, turning its erroneous ways of earlier in the season around. Starting pitching can also be added to the Jayhawks' major improvement list. Sophomore left-hander Sean Land (5-4) is the probable starter in tomorrow night's series opener. In his five-inning start against Texas last weekend. Land allowed only one run on three hits and striking out nine. Ritch Price Kansas baseball coach "We've got two series left. We've just got to keep doing what were doing." junior closer Don Czzy said. "We're playing good baseball right now in all "I in my 11 years at the Division-1 level, that's the toughest place I've ever played." "We've got tough kids in our dugout and good starting pitching," Price said. "If we continue to win series, we will control our own destiny." phases. It all starts with starting pitching. I think that is going to be the key for us." Closing pitching has played a role also, as Czyz picked up three saves last week, along with a Big 12 Pitcher of the Week honor. Sophomore right-hander Max Scherzer (7-2) will likely have a shot at the Jayhawks this weekend after he threw a complete game last weekend in the Tigers' only victory against Nebraska. Scherzer leads the Big 12 with a 1.32 ERA and leads his team with 107 strikeouts. At the plate, Missouri was led by junior first baseman Derek Chambers last weekend. Chambers went 5-13 and drove in three against the Huskers. Junior infielder Zane Taylor hit .400 against Nebraska and is hitting .319 overall. Junior first basemen Jared Schweitzer remains the top Jayhawk power hitter, as he extended his hit streak to 24 games last night against the Bears. He hit a home run in two Kansas games last weekend. Game one of the Border Showdown begins tomorrow night at 6:30. Kansas knows now to take one step at a time. After the big weekend against Texas, the Jayhawks must continue to win in order to see any postseason play. - Edited by Kendall Dix Tankard CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B I finished five seconds later and felt sick after the punch. But I didn't puke. The final contestant, Pat Barger, wasn't so lucky. A minute after Jordan punched him, he spewed on the lawn. Part Three: Smoke three cigarettes at once. The first one to finish the cigarettes wins. This was the hardest for me, partly because I don't smoke and partly because it was three cigarettes at once. I don't know how sickening that sounds, but to do this moments after drinking a quart of milk and getting punched in the stomach ... I wasn't exactly in flavor country. But in the name of sport, you have to put your body on the line sometimes. Four of us competed, and others stood around making sure we were inhaling the triple-thick smoke. Halfway through I felt numb, wheezy and lightheaded. I vowed never to smoke again. "This is what college is all about." Rob said, laughing. Pat won this one, smoking the cigarettes down to the butts in just under three minutes. He indulged in a victory puke as Jordan doubled over and spit on the lawn. I sat down on a cooler with my head spinning, my stomach bloated and my tongue still tingling from the jalapeño. The challenge was complete. We were all declared winners, and as I sat there clutching my stomach, one thing ran through my head: Milk was a bad choice. Balances Tankard is an Overland Park sophomore in journalism.

Both the Campanile and the stadium are World War II memorials. Lift the chorus ever onward Journey ends, begins on hill BY JASON SHAAD jshaad@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER Commencement walk down Mount Oread unchanged since 1924 Every year near graduation, Jeff Weinberg gets a call from someone who wants a second chance. Weinberg, assistant to the chancellor, said there were always some people who graduated years ago, but for some reason never got to walk down the hill for the commencement ceremony. "It's always interesting that 30 or 40 or 50 years later someone calls and says they want to walk down the hill," Weinberg said. "We always say 'Of course.' That means Scottie Lingelbach, 83, can experience a tradition she missed 61 years ago. Lingelbach graduated from the University in This year Weinberg invited her to return and walk with the graduating class of 2005. And because the University's commencement ceremony remains nearly unchanged since the walk down the hill began in 1924, Lingelbach will have the opportunity to make almost the same walk her fellow graduates made in 1944. "It's just something you look forward to," Lingelbach said. "I never regretted getting out early, but the "I it's just something you look forward to. I never regretted getting out early, but the tradition does mean so much that if you don't walk down the hill then you regret it." February of 1944 with a degree from the School of Business. After graduation she left for officer training school in the United States Navy. She couldn't come back for commencement. tradition does mean so much that if you don't walk down the hill then you regret it." More than 4,000 students will walk down the hill on Sunday for the University's 133rd commencement ceremony. Scottie Ligelbach KU class of 1944 It's a ceremony unique to the University, Weinberg said. The entire event is conducted without rehearsal. There is no graduation ceremony fee. And there is no major commencement speaker. Only Chancellor Robert Hemenway speaks during the event. "If there is another ceremony like ours, I haven't heard of it," Weinberg said. At 2 p.m. on Sunday, advanced degree candidates and students from the 13 professional schools and the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences will line Memorial Drive behind the Campanile. At 2:30 p.m., trumpets will signal the beginning of the procession down the hill. With caps, gowns and school banners in hand, students will slowly flow through the Campanile and down both sides of the hill into Memorial Stadium. SEE HILL ON PAGE 2 UNIVERSITY MARKETING 'Tradition-rich' University thinks forward BY ANDREW VAUPEL avaupel@kansan.com KANAN EDITOR The University of Kansas is seeking input from students, alumni or anyone with an interest in the University on four designs that were released for consideration as a new symbol on Monday. The designs, which can be viewed at www.ur.ku.edu/marketing/, are simple renditions of the initials "KU." A different typeface was used for each symbol. The visual identity team has spent the last several months examining a variety of logos, said David Johnston, director of marketing. Early designs included landmarks such as the Campanile, state symbols and objects like sunflowers, stars and "We are a very tradition-rich University that inspires to be very forward-thinking in our research," Johnston said. "We discovered that the truest symbol for KU was KU. So we gravitated toward letter-based symbols." What people will see in the finalists are a focus on academics with a modern sensibility, he said. wheat, as well as academic symbols. Other early designs centered on the K, but the U was lost. The four designs, created by the firm LandreyMorrow, were posted so the public could view and comment on the final designs. After the period for public comment ends May 30, a team led by Chancellor Robert Hemenway will choose the new symbol in June. The new symbol is part of the University's initiative to develop and implement an integrated marketing plan, said Johnston. Their research indicated that a 'new symbol was needed to fill the gap between the Jayhawk, which is fun and informal, and the University seal, which is very official and formal. LandreyMorrow was paid $88,900 for creation and implementation of an effective visual identity. The cost was paid through private funds. Earlier this year the first signs of the new plan could be seen when the University designated royal blue as the official KU blue. Crimson is the University's other official color. "We must take great care in managing our image and reputation," Hemenway wrote in a fall statement regarding the KU Integrated Marketing Plan. "Using marketing techniques will help us to better communicate the KU story, to reach out to our many audiences, and to paint a vivid picture of what makes our university great." In addition to the visual identity, Johnston said the integrated marketing plan would help bring consistency to the KU Chancellor Robert Hemenway said the University must be more effective and efficient in telling its story. story. "We tell the story differently to each audience whether it be elected officials and business leaders or prospective students and their parents."

Full off forty bucks Bluegrass grows in Lawrence...12 15... Summer festivals set the stage Vol.2 Issue 31. 05.12.05 Editor's Note CAROLINE A. As this is my last semester as editor of Jayplay and my last couple of days as a KU student, I thought this was a decent opportunity to share a few of the things I've learned during my time at the University. 1. If you miss a class, the professor is probably not lecturing on secret material that you must have in order to pass the class. If it's that important, it will probably be repeated again before the next test. 2. If you listen carefully, you can hear students on their cell phones sharing incredibly private information about their sexual escapades or latest venereal disease. 3. Trivial costs such as food and rent can be sacrificed for season basketball and football tickets. 4. Some professors will do everything they can to make your semester as miserable as possible. As they're threatening you about what they can do to your grade, smile and think about what you can write on their evaluations. 5. Freshmen can be so annoying to try to explain things to. 6. Freshmen are so annoyed when upperclassmen try to explain things to them as if they weren't in the same position three years ago. 7. Here's where I would put the obligatory: After college real life starts, so make the most of what you have left here. However, I don't want you to start vomiting all over this issue. How about: Make sure you actually care about and put some effort into what you're studying here, because you'll probably be doing something similar when you graduate. — Misty Huber, editor Contact editor at: mhuber@kansan.com Inside 3 Weekly choice 4 Bite Eat out all week on 40 bucks 6 Contact How to step in to help a friend in trouble 8 Notice Destination: Lecompton 11 Bitch + Moan Wham bam here comes marriage & ejaculating lady-style 12 Feature Tune in to local bluegrass 15 Venue Fill your summer with music festivals 17 Manual Get trim on a whim 19 Movies, Music, Games Crash, Nine Inch Nails, Psychonauts 27 Speak Outward bound and inward challenged The Jayplayers// EDITOR AKA QUEEN BEE Misty Huber ASSOCIATE EDITOR HATES TAGLINES Liz Beggs CLERK GETS AROUND TOWN Meredith Desmond DESIGNERS MAKE PRETTY PAGES Emily Homer Joshua Kendall BITE ALWAYS MUSE THE HUNCHES Britta Flowman Maha Masud Anja Winka CONTACT WILL HELP YOU WITH YOUR PROBLEMS Ashley Doyle Samara Nazir Erin Shipps MANUAL IS ACTUALLY USEFUL Donovan Atkinson Leigh Ann Foskey Lynn Hamilton NOTICE TAKES NOTE OF IT Robert Perkins Paige Worthy VENUE HAS THE BOOZE AND THE BEAT Chris Brown Mandy Hendrix Ashley Michaels COPY EDITOR THE BRUNTE BOMBHELLS IS BACK Jennifer Voidness CREATIVE CONSULTANT KNOWS A LOT Carol Holstead Cover photo: Kelly Hutsel SPEAK UP JUST SEND AN E-MAIL TO jayplay@kansan.com or individually, the formula is: (1st initial)+last name(@kansan.com) or write to Jayplay The University Daily Kansan 111 Stauffer-Flint Hall 1435 Jayhawk Blvd. Lawrence, KS 66045 Courtesy of thepatmurphyband.com CLUB Gris Gris Thurs 5/12 KU Kiosk Benefit, Jackpot Saloon, 943 Massachusetts St., 10 p.m., 18+ Dresden, 1927.

STREET WELI WELCOME WAYNE'S WORLD Photo illustration by Rachel Seymour Eating Eating out on a budget is normal for most college students. As a result, finding cheap food becomes a necessary skill to develop. Inspired by my favorite Food Network show, $40 a Day, I make my mission to find out how much and how well I can go out to eat with just$ 40 for five meals in five days. I have to eat at least one meal in a restaurant each day. The meal includes tax and tip, and no fast food joints are allowed. I'll be on the lookout for some tips to help me along the way. Day 1: It's been a long, grueling day, running on campus, to work and class, and I can't ignore the rumble in my stomach. I ask my roommate where I can eat for cheap. They direct me to the white Kansas coupons book on our messy dining room table. I flip through it, and come across a two-for-one coupon for Qodba burritos. I convince one of my roommates to eat an early dinner and we head over to dig in to vegetarian burritos, which are $4.99. Make free coupon books and the Campus Coupon pages that appear in the University Daily Kansan your best friends, and you will be sure to find great deals. Total spent today:$ 2.67, after splitting the cost of one burrito. Day 2: The $40 a Day book, which inspired the Food Network show, is my guide for the next few days. The author, Rachael Ray, who also hosts the show, says that going local is a great way to save money, I decide to hit up one of my favorite restaurants in town: La Parilla. 814 Massachusetts st. I. order my favorite, a steaming hot tofu rice bowl. For $4.50, the price is right. Ray's advice was right on. Look for great little restaurants around town because often times they will have specials and lower-price dishes, and the selection of food will be much more unique. Total spent today:$ 6.55. Day 3: Bryson Rexwinkle, lola senior, has some great ideas for where to go eat for cheap. His friends know him as being careful with his money. "I've always been pretty frugal," Rexwinkle says. From a young age, he's always been on the look-out for great deals. Rexwinkle says since then he's found ways to save his money. He says many restaurants will have specials different nights of the week such as half-price meals, two-for-one drinks or just specially-priced dishes. Sharing a meal with a friend is also something he reme- ndes doing to save money. I take his advice, and go to Zen Zero, 811 Massachusetts St. to share a bowl of Phad Kae Mao — or "Drunken Noodles"—with one of my roommates. The dish costs $6.38 with tax, and because I'm sharing the food, I really only spending half of that. Total spent today:$ 3.67. Day 4: I think我 hit the jackpot today, a free meal! And how did I manage that? Right here on campus, at Veggie Lunch, a weekly event on Thursdays held at the Ecumenical Christian Ministries, 1204 Oread St. I dine on lime and garlic rice and roasted vegetables all wrapped up in a huge tortilla, and also munch on free wheatfields bread dipped in honey. It just goes to show that if you keep your eyes open, you will come across a lot of ways to save money while still going out to eat. Total spent today: $0. Day 5: I'm feeling virtuous after my great find yesterday, so decide to splurge a little. Rachel Ray, author of $40 a Day, encourages you to nicer restaurants even if you don't have a lot of money. Don't deprive yourself just because you think you can't afford it. She says that by going to pricier restaurants during off-peak times of the day, you can find lower-priced dishes and still experience the quality and service of the restaurant. It take her advice, and head to Stone Creek, 3801 W. Sixth St. The lunch menu has entrees that have slightly smaller portions and cost half the regular price. Adobo Chicken Fettuccini sounds delicious, and it's only$ 6.95. Total spent today $8.55 To my surprise, I made my budget and still have more than $19 to spare. This little mission was quite an eye-operative. I found out it is possible to go out to eat and not completely empty my bank account. I also picked up some great tips, such as finding lunch menus and ordering dishes such as appetizers or desserts at nicer restaurants to indulge without going broke. It just takes a little snooping around town to get a great meal, and a great deal. Contact writer at: mmasud@kansan.com Today's Special Thursday and Friday may be the most popular night to eat out, but most restaurants have their specials earlier in the week. Take advantage of these deals to save some serious cash. Here are just a few of the specials I came across on my hunt for cheap meals. Mondays: ■ Flanny T's Bar and Grill, 3520 W. Sixth St, has buy one, get one free burgers ■ CiCi's, 2020 W. 23rd St., has a $2.99 bufet Tuesdays: **FUNCTIONS:** - **Buffalo Wild Wings**, 1012 Massachusetts St., has 30-cent wings - **Applebee's Neighborhood Bar and Grill**, 2520 Iowa St., has half-price appetizers Wednesdays: Yacht Club, 530 Wisconsin St., has 50- cent tacos It's Brothers' Bar and Grill, 1105 Massa- chuset St., has 10-cent wings 4 4 Jayplay 05.12.05 Super-short supper Sloppy Joes Makes 2 to 3 sandwiches 1/2 pound lean ground beef 1/4 cup chopped onion 1/4 cup green pepper 4 ounces tomato sauce 1 tablespoon water 1 teaspoon oil 1/2 teaspoon chili powder 1/2 teaspoon cinn powder 1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder dash of hot pepper sauce 2 to 3 hamburger buns or rolls FAT BURGER Photo courtesy of www.dvo.com Brown beef in large skillet or pot and drain off fat.

Stat La Tropicana 434 Locust St. Lajgierczaja MOGDANOCHOWE Food type: From the sizzling fajitas to the crispy flautas and tostadas, this Mexican restaurant is worth a try. **Price range:** Entrees are big enough to share. They come with a side of Spanish rice and refried beans and are priced from $7.25 to$ 11.25. If you're looking for appetizers and drinks, the guacamole ($5.25), which comes with a big basket of tortilla chips, is loaded with tasty cilantro, tomatoes and avocados, and it tastes homemade. Seating availability: With indoor and outdoor seating, there's plenty of room to fit all your friends and family. If it is a nice day, sit out on the patio, which has a three-tiered fountain and large round tables. Date worthy: The umbrella-covered tables on the patio create an intimate setting. At night, lights line the trees, setting a very romantic atmosphere. Booze availability: Just beer here. Domestic bottles are $2.50 and imports like Dos Equis XX and Modelo are$ 3.00. —Anja Winikka How we met PHOTO COMBINED BY ANNE WIDDERMAN Photo contributed byAmber Wiberding Amber Wibberding and Kristy Brown The last time Leavenworth sophomore Amber Wibberding saw her cousin Kristy Brown, Excelsior Springs, Mo., junior, was at a holiday party when she was in sixth grade. Now, fast-forward six years to the University of Kansas' freshmen orientation. When all the incoming students were divided into smaller groups for Student-2-Student groups, or break out sessions, Wibberding and Brown sat right next to each other without realizing it. Wibberding says right when they saw each other, they remembered who the other person was. Now these cousins have a close friendship at the University and have even had several classes together.

Photo illustration by Rachel Seymour that nothing happened. Finally, she was Peter Granitz has lived with drug dealers, a cocaine addict and an alcoholic who was also addicted to speed. The Milwaukee, Wis., senior's experiences living with such addicts have made him recognize that he's never going to be hooked on anything. "I've realized that addiction is a complete lack of willpower," Granitz says. Granitz and his roommates didn't talk much about their addictions. He says he knew it was bad, but he didn't worry that much about them. He was frustrated and annoyed with the addictsleep until 3 p.m. They woke up only to drink and stay up until 5 a.m. "The cokehead was just blowing daddy's money up his nose," Granitz says of his former roommate who moved back home to Los Angeles. Granitz says he and his other roommates kicked out another person because, "a after a华丽, you just get tired of caring." He wishes now that he had been more upfront with his roommates. Drug abuse in Kansas is on the rise. According to www.dea.gov, methamphenatines are of primary concern. In 2004 there were 376 arrests for drug violations. The Web site also shows that Interstates 70 and 35 are major smuggling routes to eastern states. Of the more than 14,000 people who sought drug rehab in Kansas, 22.6 percent were between the ages of 18 and 25, according to www.drug-rehabs.org. The number of college students seeking treatment for addiction is also growing, says Jason Willoughby, director of public promotions for Narconon Arrowhead and www.stopaddiction.com in Canadian, Okla. Loneliness, homesickness, the need to fit in, being with the wrong crowd, relationship issues, peer pressure, feelings of inadequacy and the drive for success all cause problems for college students, says Kris Walker, an alcohol and drug counselor for Valeo Behavioral Services in Topeka, Walker, who has worked in drug and alcohol dependency for 17 years, says that there are usually some warning signs to look for in suspected addicts. He says to look for erratic behavior, missed classes or appointments, legal problems, spending a lot of time on the computer, isolation from friends and family and frequent trips to bars, casinos or gyms. He also says to watch out for people who seem to minimize their problems when confronted, people who lie to get money and other deceptive behavior. Some addictions, such as prescription drug abuse, might be harder to detect. Walker says problems like this sometimes go unnoticed until after college because so much partying goes on in college. Approaching a friend who has an addiction can be nerve-racking, but Walker suggests confronting with respect and honesty. "You don't want a person to feel attacked, put down or less-than," he says. "Be sensitive about the fact that people are going to be defensive when conthat nothing happened. Finally she went to see her father, who had been sitting in a chair for three days without sleep or food. "I realized I was killing my own dad," she says. "I knew if I didn't do it [get some help], then he would die because he had to watch me kill myself by using drugs." Sometimes people must engage in a more serious confrontation, an intervention. An intervention traditionally involves friends, family and people who care for the person sharing their concerns regarding specific behaviors of the addict. Afterward, it means helping the addict find a solution to their problem. At age 13, Amanda Cobb, public contact supervisor for Narcason Arrowhead in Oklahoma, became an addict. By age 21, she had been in the hospital twice for kidney failure. The third time she went, the doctor said there was nothing more he could do. Her family saw that an intervention was the only way to go. "My sister called me and told me my dad was dying," she says. Cobb hung up the phone and didn't answer it for two days, pretending Cobb is a success story because of the help she received at Narcorton. The organization offers help finding local treatment to anyone who calls. After an addict decides to seek help, friends can help by offering encouragement, honest support and a listening ear. Walkers say. They should also look for support for themselves so they aren't drawn into the addictive behavior.

Brought to you by Clear Channel Entertainment. notice --- --- Getting lost in Lecompton By Paige Worthy, Jayplay writer In a tiny town northwest of Lawrence, a turbulent past mingles with the present Photos by Robert Perkins Photos by Robert Perkins At a family picnic in Lecompont, Kourtneff griffith's grandfather holds a puppy, Griffith, not pictured, had driven in from Topeka for the afternoon. Lecompton is probably Lecompton is probably the sort of place a lot of people_picture when they think of Kansas. It's quiet and still, almost to the point of sleepiness. Bright yellow, metal "WELCOME" signs swirl lazily from the electrical poles lining the town's main drag, Woodson Avenue. Men nod and give us four-fingered waves from the steering wheels of their John Deere riding mowers to signal hello, and an elderly couple waves from their porch swing at our slowly passing car. My boyfriend and I drove the 14 miles from Lawrence one warm, lazy afternoon in mid-April. My grandparents, a wealthy Mission Hills, Kan, couple with almost too much time on their hands, had visited a few years ago and enjoyed themselves, so we went to absorb some of its history and see whether there were any other things for college students to do. We didn't find much in the latter category, but I was still drawn to what we did find. The town's calm appearance and sleepy atmosphere belie a violent past: Lecompton was a hotbed of activity at the beginning of the Civil War, when it was the capital of the Kansas territory, the Lecompton constitution, which would have made Kansas a slave state, attracted national attention to the town during political debates between Abraham Lincoln and Stephen A. Douglas in 1858. The U.S. House of Representatives rejected the constitution by only eight votes that same year, but conflicts between slavery supporters and "free-staters" didn't end there, says Paul Bahnauer, a 62-year-old resident who has lived in Lecompont all his life. Bahnauer gives free tours at the Territorial Capital Museum, one of two museums in town, leading small groups of history buffs and Civil War enthusiasts around the three floors of the museum, which is stocked with antique dishes, antebellum artifacts and creepy mannequins wearing period outfits. On the first floor, he points to items in cases and recites (verbatim) the text from a page of facts that he probably wrote and memorized. At the end of his tour, Bahmaier adds that his family moved to Lecompton in 1855 from Germany. His father's pistol is on display in the museum, though Bahmaier never shows it on the tour; his father carried it for self-defense because the town was so dangerous, especially for immigrants and abolitionists. Despite a perilous past, safety never seems to come into question here in the present. Behind the museum is a dusty baseball diamond enclosed by a chain-link fence, the epitheme of small town America. "GO LADY KAWS" is spelled out in huge white letters at the edge of the outfield. White, baseball-shaped wooden名platelets the line for the dugout, and the ground surrounding the field is littered with the black shells of sunflower seeds crushed underfoot. We sit on the blue 8 Jayplay 05.12.05 bleachers and unwrap the sandwiches we packed. I swat away wasps and I close my eyes and breathe in as a breeze carries the scent of flowers and clean rural air toward me. While only a few visitors seem to make it to the museum each weekend, the baseball diamond is clearly a popular stomping ground for the town's residents. Up the road from the Territorial Capital Museum is another of Lecompton's claims to fame, Constitution Hall. It's a national landmark preserved by the Kansas State Historical Society, and many of the original floorboards are still in place in their original spots. Just inside the entrance, there's a Lucite admission box — adults are $2; children, students and seniors are$ 1 — and not much else. It seems as though only a serious history nut with a lot of background could get much out of the sparse exhibits, but on this day, the box has collected its fair share of dollar bills. Steven Everley, a Eudora senior studying American history, works the desk and gives presentations to Constitution Hall's visitors. He says the museum is usually pretty quiet, but he likes working there. When people do come in, they are often passing through and making stops at other historical places in the Midwest; Everley says he can tell them what he knows and learn from them at the same time. The historical nature of Lecompton is a big 'draw, but the museum isn't the only thing that keeps Everley driving back to work every Sunday, even though it's just for a few hours. Everyone is friendly, he says, like the 93-year-old woman who comes across the street to pull weeds on the lawn next to Constitution Hall. In a town this small(population:608) everyone seems to know each other, he says. "It's like the Cheers bar in a town setting," Everley says. The town's charm and friendliness rub off on everyone, even visitors. A 13 year-old girl from Topeka, Kourtney Griffith, is picnicking with her family under a shelter in a park near Woodson Avenue on this spring day. She and her 8- year old brother Austin, take turns showing off their Capital Museum tour wants to chat about life in Lawrence and books on Civil War history. The man claims we're following him when we show up at Constitution Hall right behind him, and we laugh because we're the only people going through the museums It's not so far... Take,some directions with you if you go to Lecompton, or you'll be lost before you even get there...like we were. Here's how to get there and bypass the toll on I-70: Take Sixth Street out of Lawrence and go west until you hit Kansas Highway 10. museums. With no bars, restaurants or social events, with the exception of Territorial Days, a summer festival that begins June 24. it may not be a "hot spot" for college students. But Turn right at the stop pies, Tipper and Nala, while she chats candidly with me about her aunt, who lives in town, and how badly she wants to be a journalist when she goes to college. It isn't only the children who seem to want to make friends right away: A couple on the Territorial ♦ Take K-10 across l-70 and take a left when you hit the next intersection, N. 1800 Road. - Turn right at the stop sign and continue on E. 600 Road — it turns into Eisenhower Memorial Drive — until you see signs for Leptompson and Woodson Avenue. - Stay on N. 1800 Road, which runs parallel to I-70, until you reach a stop sign. Lecompton doesn't need them, nor Take a left onto Woodson Avenue and you're there. The Territorial Capital Museum will be on your right just as you come into town. does it need kitschy museum gift shops or giant balls of twine to be appealing. I made the drive not sure what to expect, except for a couple of museums, and physically I didn't find much else. But the relaxation I felt just by being there, during a stressful time of the year, and the people I met that day are enough to make me want to go back. Those who will truly love Lecompton are probably like me: easily charmed by genuine smiles and willing to go on a rehearsed museum tour for the opportunity to a little learn more than just history.

Kurt, junior I met a girl at a bar and slept with her that night. Now she's my girl friend and I love her and want to marry her after two months. My friends think I'm being stupid. What do you think? **Jessi:** Ooooh, Kurt, *shakes head** Let's review some things, shall we? First, you slept with the girl upon meeting her, which plainly indicates you had no respect for her from the get-go. And then, do you really think she respects you? Second, how can you be so sure you want to spend the rest of your life with someone you've known for two months when couples who've been married 20+ years excited profess that they're still learning new things about their spouse? Your friends probably know you best at this point in your life. Kurt, they're right. Q Chris: You are stupid. Even if this person is someone you want to spend the rest of your life with, why rush into marriage? I think you should date for a while, live together for a while and if after all that you still feel the same way, go for it. But the only reasons to get married that soon is to keep from being deported, assuming she's American, your Visa is about to expire or she's loaded and hot. I dress in really revealing clothing when I go out and my boyfriend disapproves of what I wear. Am I out of line for dressing this way, or is he overbearing? Jessi: This situation depends on your intentions. Let's say you've been working out, and you're more comfy in something a little more risqué than what you usually wear. Your boyfriend however, may be upset because he thinks you might be seeking out attention from other guys, in which case, he wouldn't be off the mark in his so-called "overbearing" attitude. Next time you go out, ask yourself a few things. Why are you dressing this way? Are you respecting yourself by what you're wearing? Are you projecting the right image of who you are? Are there people that might be offended by your actions? Remember, it's OK to keep the goodies in the jar. Honestly, I don't really want to see your tatas. Q a Chris: Here's what I heard in your letter: "I dress a slut to draw attention to myself and make my boyfriend jealous because I have low self-esteem and having drunk guys stare at my butt cleavage makes me feel good inside." My boyfriend thinks female ejaculation is really sexy, Is there any way I can make this happen for myself? Jessi! From my understanding, only some females are able to ejaculate through stimulation of the controversial G-spot. Some sexparts say the renowned Grafenberg spot exists while others believe it's a load of baloney. The G-spot's location is believed to be situated a few inches inside the vagina on the anterior wall. G-spot stimulation supposedly produces an orgasm that makes her initially feel as if she needs to pee, though she most likely won't. Know that not all orgasms originate from the questionable G-spot and that the clitoris has been exceptionally helpful in Big O-production since the dawn of the female orgasm. PS.- If the G-spot O doesn't work for you, you can always subs in a squirt gun for that spurting effect he's after. Ewww. Hope this helps! **Chris:** When a question's subject matter is outside my own experiences, or those of my drunk girlfriend, I look to my favorite source: Internet Porn. Some sites had "tips" to help you learn the skill, but lacking a vagina of my own, I had a hard time practicing their techniques and can't promise you'll see positive results.

WCA PICKIN' ON LAWRENCE PHOTOS BY ARIELA CALME By Chris Brown, Jayplaywriter EOO A RICH HISTORY OF BLUEGRASS MUSIC ABOUNDS IN LAWRENCE "Never let the truth spoil a good story," preaches Steve Mason, Lawrence resident and all around bluegrass renaissance man "And don't quit your day job — that's another one." Referring to what could be called two "bluegrass principles", Mason laughs. Originally from Ann Arbor, Mich., Mason's influence on the local bluegrass scene can be traced decades back to nearly all of the original bluegrass bands to come to Lawrence in the 1970s. Mason is also able to play pretty much every stringed instrument — with varying degrees of skill — including the fiddle, banjo, mandolin, upright bass and cello. He says this is part-and-parcel of his profession as a luthier, which he describes as "one who repairs, improves and creates stringed musical instruments." A large man with a bushy white beard and thin-rimmed glasses, Mason is the kind of person who lives and breathes bluegrass music. His west Lawrence home reflects his passion: custom fiddles hanging neatly together on a rack adorn the cream-colored walls of his living room, a large upright bass in pinstripe conditions sit propped on a stand near a window, tools of the trade — a bandaw, a belt-sander and a drill press — pack one side of his garage, now converted into a workspace for repairing, building and improving upon instruments. Through his active involvement in the Lawrence bluegrass scene as a creator and mentor for many, Mason embodies a thriving musical community that revolves around this genre of roots music. And like Mason's love of tuthery, the history of bluegrass music in Lawrence runs deep. Bluegrass music is alive and well in Lawrence and is not confined to one generation of listeners and players. Unlike other popular forms of music, it is a shared tradition, passed down from one generation to another through people such as Steve Mason and Gloria Throne, through events such as the Fiddling and Picking Championships and community jams, and through places such as the Americana Music Academy. Roots Run Deep The historical roots of bluegrass music are a once varied and distinct. According to the International Bluegrass Music Association, bluegrass was first born out of the street balladry of the people who began migrating to America in the early 1600s. These people tended to live in rural areas and composed new songs about day-to-day life experiences in the new land. The songs these early Americans created incorporated simple stringed instruments, such as banjos and basses, and the music was decidedly pastoral, reflecting life on the farm or in the hills. Ron Pen, director of the John Jacob Niles Center for American Music Association, says that bluegrass music, in all its modern-day incarnations, owes its starting point to one climatic event: In 1878, brothers Ralph and Carter Stanley recorded a ballad that the last four mile heat race — a three-heat race of four miles each — at Church Hill Downs. This race, which took place on July 4, 1878, was between the Kentucky horse Ten Broeck and the horse Miss Mollie McCarthy from California. Pen says that this event came before Bill Monroe — considered to be the "father of bluegrass" — played his distinct style of In the early 1930s and '40s, music of various ethnic backgrounds mixed with African-American folk music to develop into different forms of early roots music, such as hillbilly, blues and jazz, Pen says. At this time, an experimentation of African-American balladry mixed with old-time string band music began. This unique gave rise to a new type of music termed "bluegrass," which described the music's origin in the bluegrass hills of Kentucky. "mountain music" with his band. The Blue Grass Boys. Though not as far reaching, the history of a cohesive bluegrass music scene in Lawrence dates back to the early 1970s, when groups of like-minded musicians got together to form loose-knit collaborations, which later turned into old-time bands such as Last Kansas Exit, Murphy's Law and Prairie Fire. Mason, who played fiddle in a few of these bands, says they played for the same audience but differed in their approach to bluegrass. Some played in the style of the genre's founding father Bill Monroe, others incorporated non-traditional instruments, such as guitars, mandolins and 12 Jayplay 05.12.05 4. accordions, into the mix. In 1975, then Lawrence elementary school teacher Gloria Throne decided to try and bring the down-home bluegrass jam sessions she had grown up with in Brown County, Ind. — just 20 minutes from Bill Monroe's birthplace — to Lawrence. Throne placed an ad for a Wednesday night jam session in the bulletin of the "Free University," which was a no credit, no fees system, she explains. Steve Mason came to the first meeting, offering to host the event at his music store Harmonic Arts at Fourth and Locust Streets, she says. Within a year, word-ofmouth had turned the event into a huge success. "We tried to emphasize we're just getting to share the music in whatever way people could," says Throne, who is now 63, retired and living in Rushville, Mo. Throne says that there were no rules for what instruments people could and could not bring, so people often brought instruments that weren't traditionally associated with bluegrass music. "We kept creating categories. If you played harmonica or hammered dulcimer at least you could have the chance to share what you did," she says. As it was then, playing music in these weekly jam sessions was a good way to network with other musicians around town, she says. Through these jam sessions, Throne hooked up with Steve Mason to play bass and sing in his oldtime parody band Goldilocks and the Bagels. Throne played the stage role of Goldilocks. From the '70s into the early '80s, barn dances — otherwise known as "contra dance" — became popular in Lawrence. These dances, which incorporated a song-and-dance style reminiscent of square dance, flourished around oldtime music and the bands that defined bluegrass in Lawrence up to this point. Throne says. In 1976 — the United States' bicentennial year — the rich musical scene that had been growing through the years culminated in the local Fiddling and Picking Championships, which Throne organized. Though it since has expanded to include a plethora of stringed instruments, Throne says the first Fiddling and Picking Championships involved just guitars and fiddles. "It had two categories — fiddling and picking — and everyone had to play together," she says. Mirroring the evolution of the Fiddling and Picking Championships to include new instruments and new musical styles, the Lawrence bluegrass scene has evolved over the years and now encompasses more musical styles and instruments that push the creative envelope of American roots music. The Americana Experience The Americana Music Academy, located at 1410 Massachusetts St., is the modern day incarnation of the "70s weekly jam sessions and the subsequent bands formed from the relationships fostered in this "everyone plays together" atmosphere. Founder and established guitarist Thom Alexander says he believes in the power of playing music together and thinks it is important to provide people, of all different backgrounds with varying degrees of musical skills, opportunities to play music in "low-stress situations." Coming from a background in education, the 48-year-old Alexander moved to Lawrence from California in 1993 and had a vision to start a music school. "I think everybody should learn and have the joy of music in their lives," says Alexander, an outspoken, silver-haired man with a matching grey goatee and round glasses. In August 2001 Alexander opened Americana. Four months later, in January 2002, classes for a wide Mike Yoder plays in the Music Hall of Memorial Stringbond. range of instruments and musical styles associated with roots music began. "I was into filling a niche," Alexander says. "I have a real love for banjo, I have a real love for mandolin, I have a real love for dulcimer." Alexander's vision of people from all different walks of life playing music together has boldly manifested itself in various weekly events that Americana sponsors. He says that some of these events, such as the Thursday night community jam at Signs of Life Books, 722 Massachusetts St., and the front porch jam at Americana on Saturday mornings, regularly attract many local musicians of all different ages and musical backgrounds. "Anybody can show up," Alexander says. "Sometimes there's three people, sometimes there's 35. The goal is just to provide an opportunity for people to play with other people for the sake of playing." Tax Day Jamboree On April 15—officially known to everyone in the country as "tax day" — the post office is packed but not with tax fil- Former mayor Mike Rundle danced to the bluegrass tunes of the Alfred Packer Memorial String Band. ers. Steve Mason's band, the Alferd Packard Memorial Stringband, plays its distinctive mix of old-time and contra dance music to an eclectic mix of Lawrencians, young and old. The roots of this event at the most peculiar of venues goes back to 1986. In that year, Mason got his taxes done late and said he had that feeling like the pressure had been taken off—a feeling similar to finishing a big exam. He wanted to play music but there was nothing going on. The next year, a member of Mason's band, Seventh $^{th}$ and Hickory, half-jokingly suggested they have a tax-day jam at the post office and the band was into the idea so they just showed up and started playing. "We thought they would kick us out but they didn't," he said. Since 1987, the event has been a town spectacle. At 10:30 p.m. on tax day this year, crowds of people pack the interior. Some dance, some just observe. The Alferd Packard Memorial Stringband plays a fast-paced contra dance number for the affable crowd. The band members are decked out in elaborate costumes, which can best be described as Civil War meets Old West. Outside, a man cooks "road-kill stew," and there's a tinge of its rich contents in the post office air. In between songs, the band cracks corny jokes and the crowd responds with disapproving laughs. At the start of another song—a medium-paced waltz—former mayor Mike Rundle takes center stage The (Unofficial) Rules of Bluegrass "You can totally suck, but if you're in a family band, you can get away with it." Steve Mason on families playing bluegrass music "Drums are very controversial in bluegrass. The idea anyone would play drums at a bluegrass festival is like heresy." —Steve Mason on instrument choice in bluegrass music "Vory few bluegrass songs speak happily about love." David Barnhill, Lawrence senior and mandolin player in the bluegrass band the High Water Marksmen, on bluegrass lyrics 22 A mandolin from 1921 that belonged to a druggist in Waldo, Kan, and was brought to Mason from the owner's grandson's wife to be adjusted. and tap dances to the rhythmic beat. The crowd cheers him and his "Lord of the Dance" tap dance moves on. The room is filled with a diversity of people, but few who are of college age. Rachel Costello, Lawrence sophomore, is here with her dad. Costello says her dad comes every year but tonight is her first time being a part of this tax day tradition. Costello says she grew up listening to bluegrass music. "It has a nostalgic feel to me because I listened to it as a little kid," she says. At 11:55, the crowd lines up by the mail drop slot in preparation for the final flippers to dash in before the clock strikes midnight. With balloons in hand, the crowd forms a tunnel walkway from the doors to the drop slot — a formation know for years as “the gauntlet.” The band rushes over to the front of the crowd to play its last number of the night, the William Tell Overture. The band strikes up its feverish-paced version and for the five next minutes the crowd cheers on the last of the tax day filers as they rush in. Old School Approach, New School Players As with the tax day show, the bluegrass scene in Lawrence is as much about the audience as it is about the musicians. Often times, audience members become part of the band during what is known as a "bluegrass jam session." In a bluegrass jam session, Steve Mcauley says that there's an open environment of musicianship where bluegrass musicians jam with other bluegrass musicians in a social setting fixed around a circle. Mason says that everyone is encouraged to play with everyone else in these settings but the center of the circle is reserved for only those that can keep pace with the song being played. "If you sound like you're good enough to be in the center, they kind of open up and let you in," he says. "If you suck, they keep you out." Not everyone plays at once. The musicians participating in these jams take breaks one at a time, Mason says, while everyone else plays chords to continue the rhythmic beat of the song. Sean McCue, Overland Park senior, says he got involved with the local bluegrass scene through playing in various jam sessions and networking with musicians that he met. The 23-year-old bassist says he played bass throughout high school in jazz bands but had never really thought about playing bluegrass music until he came to Lawrence and found opportunities to play with other people around town through community jam sessions. McCue now plays in Devil Eat the Groundhog, which he describes as an old-time stringband — composed of musicians on bass, guitar, fiddle and mandolin. Steve Mason says that an encouraging environment where musicians can play music with other musicians is something that's important in bluegrass music and the preservation of the Lawrence bluegrass scene. "A huge thing is that music is a social sport and it's very difficult to stand in a living room and practice," Mason says. "So it's much more fun to play with other people." cbrown@kansan.com Contact writer at: Photos by Chris Brown Photos by Chris Brown Steve Mason (at right) adjusts the bridge on a violin for self-described "closet-picker" 'Bob Anderson of Topeka at Mason's home and workplace.

Courtesy of www.wakarusa.com Warm weather is here again and so is festival season. With spring in full bloom and summer right behind, do you know where to catch some good tunes? According to jambase.com, this outdoor concert season boasts more than 50 music festivals taking place in all corners of the United States from May through August. While it might be hard to decide which ones to attend, here are some best bets for your money, travel considerations and listening pleasure this summer: 图 12-4-13 Bannaroo Music and Arts Festival, in Manchester, Tenn., June 18-20 real- ity. An aerial shot of the Soo Pass Ranch, site of the 10,000 Lakes Festival in Detroit Lakes, Minn. Courtesy of www.10klf.com A major festival that is now in its third year, Bonnaroo caters to just about any and every music fan under the sun. This festival plays out like a "who's who" in music, attracting major headliners like The Flaming Lips and The Dead in previous years on down to the up-and-coming bands of tomorrow that might not have national recognition yet. Bonnaroo — a creole slang term for "good stuff"—was born in 2002 after two music publicity and management firms, New Orleans-based Superfly Entertainment and Knoxville, Tennessee-based AC Entertainment saw potential to bring together a huge diversity of music fans and unite them with their favorite bands. These two companies combined their efforts to make this three-day music and arts extravaganza a every year. Farman is quick to point out that this location is a central point for most of the United States. "Our site is a day's drive from 75 percent of the population," he says. says Rick Farman, senior publicist at SuperflyEntertainment. "We started seeing regional festivals but we didn't see a national one," Farman says. "Based on this, in 2001 we met and saw a niche for a great American rock festival." When you think of a "great American rock festival" taking place somewhere, you might not think of a place like Tennessee, which plays host to Bonnaroo 10,000 Lakes Festival, in Detroit Lakes, Minn., July 22-24 Appropriately named for the state's claim to fame, the 10,000 Lakes Festival in Detroit Lakes offers three days of live music from such nationally-recognized bands as Widespread Panic and Rusted Root at a moderate ticket price. Now in its third year, the 10,000 Lakes Festival takes place on a ranch that has played host to a country music festival since 1983. Organizers of this festival called "We Fest" — wanted to diversify the use of the land and had ambitions to begin a new festival that would incorporate a broader range of bands says Dave Weissman, publicist for the 10,000 Lakes Festival. In 2003, the organizers saw their vision come to fruition in the first annual 10,000 Lakes Festival, which attracted close to 20,000 music fans. Along with the band lineup, the land is greatly diverse, too. Weissman says that the festival is in an "unmatched natural setting." "Most of the camping spots are wooded, you have your own tree and you can have fires," Weissman says. Weissman also says that the festival's campgrounds, which he calls "pristine and some of the best among festivals" are located no more than a 10 minute walk from the stage. "You wake to the music," he says. Wakarusa Music and Camping Festival, outside Lawrence, Kan.

In its opening year, the Wakauras Festival featured such big-name headliners as Galactic and Keller Williams. Now in its second year, the festival has expanded to include more acts that fit outside the "jamband" mold, such as Wilco and Neko Case, says Brett Mosiman, co-director of Pipeline Productions. "It's an incredibly diverse and deep festival," Mosiman says. A success in its first year with 30,000 paying fans in attendance for the four-day extravaganza, the Wakarusa Music and Camping Festival promises to be bigger and more diverse in its offerings, both on and off the stage, Mosiman says. He says he hopes for twice the amount of last year's attendance at this year's festival. According to the festival's Web Site, some of the new offerings at this year's "We knew we had this great site outside of town," Mosiman says. Like the organizers involved with Bonnaroo, the organizers involved with making the Wakarusa Music and Camping Festival happen — namely Pipeline Productions — saw a niche for a Midwest festival that would incorporate arts and entertainment around live music. Mosman says Pipeline Productions had experience in bringing large-scale festivals to the Midwest through its past involvement in the Sunflower and Jayhawk music festivals. festival include a morning yoga class, a carnival with a Ferris wheel and other rides, and a drum circle that, on Sunday, June 19 at 12 p.m., will attempt to break the Guinness Book of World Records for largest drum circle ever created and documented. cbrown@kansan.com Contact writer at: SUMMER BEST SHOW 2014 A shot of the "What" Stage—the center stage at last year's Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival in Manchester, Tenn.

For the carefree at heart, summer also means a predictable return to alcoholic beverages ushered in with the sweaty season, like the margarita, the dalquir and the pina colada. But before you go out to buy that next margarita mix-kit, consider broadening your alcoholic horizons with the tequila sunrise. Word has it that this drink was concocted by a befuddled bartender in San Francisco, who stayed at the bar drinking with a few friends until the boys walked in at a few 9 a.m. and demanded an explanation. Quick on wit, the drunken bartender explained that he had stayed to watch the sun rise in order to create a drink that resembled the occurrence Of course, he had to produce the drink in order to prove his story, and thus the Tequila Sunrise was born. Pour the tequila and orange juice into a Collins glass almost filled with ice cubes. Stir well. Drop the grenadine into the center of the drink. Garnish with an orange slice, if desired.

You can do it." I pull hard against the 45 pounds that strain my triceps as I finally grunt "twе-lve." My arms are weak and shake, but I make it through my third set of 12 upright rows. "OK, let's move." Josh Magaha, University of Kansas Recreational Services cardiovascular resistance training manager, hurries me on to leg press to begin the lower-body part of my 30-minute circuit-training workout. I love to work out, but when things get busy and I am pressed for the time, it's the first thing that gets kicked out of my schedule. So I went in search of the most efficient 30-minute workout for busy, time-crunched students. Here's what I came up with. The benefit of circuits Circuit training is strength training done at such a pace that the heart rate is elevated within 50 to 85 percent of its max for the entirety of the workout, which is in our case — 30 minutes. These workouts are easy to follow because they can be run by a stopwatch instead of counting, Magaha says, and circuit training promotes overall wellness by combining a cardiovascular workout with strength training. I like to think I am in pretty good shape. I run nearly every day and lift weights regularly. Still, I could feel my increased heart rate about halfway through the circuit workout and had to admit to Magaha that I was feeling shaky. If you only have 30 minutes you've got to make the most of the time you have, to fit Magaha says. Keep your time and move quickly through the workout. "Some people will be at the gym for an hour and a half and only do four lifts," Magaha says. "Don't talk during your workout; talk afterwards." For students who only have 30 minutes to fit in a workout, the key is to be focused and efficient, says Joanna Clingingsmith, trainer at Lawrence Athletic Club, 3201 Mesa Way. Like Magaha, Clingingsmith agrees that the ideal workout includes cardiovascular and strength training with little or no rest in between so that the heart rate is elevated to give the benefit of aerobic exercise as well as strength training. Multi-joint exercises like lunges, squats or step-ups incorporate several muscle groups into one exercise, thus increasing the efficiency of the exercise. Clingingsmith recommends using multi-joint exercises for the lower body and a lift for each part of the upper body: chest, back, biceps, triceps, shoulders and abs. Do a set of 10 to 15 reps on each lift, and repeat the entire body workout three times. "This will get your heart rate up to get the benefits of aerobic exercise activity and good solid calorie burning, as well as the benefits of tightening and strengthening your muscles," Clingingsmith says. The circuit workouts are great for condensing muscle — not bulking up — and getting toned, says Jenny Prohaska, Leawood senior, who began circuit training two months ago. She has lost three inches around her waist and has lowered her body fat percentage several points. Prohaska circuit trains four days a week and she rotates among machines, free weights and ball exercises. If she has time, she likes to add up to 30 minutes of a cardiovascular exercise to the end of her workout. "It really gets your endorphins going and you feel fantastic after a good workout," Prohaska says. Skip one Friends rerun and hit the gym. You don't have to spend hours working out for your body to benefit. Combine your strength training and cardio into a circuit-training workout to be time-efficient. See you there. Contact writer at: lhamilton@kansan.com Calculate your heart rate: A quick way to determine your maximum heart rate is to subtract your age from 220. If you are 19 then your maximum heart rate is 201. During circuit training, your heart rate should be somewhere between 100, which is 50 percent of your max and 170, which is 85 percent of your max. Circuit training uses your time at the gym efficiently. P Photo illustrations by Rachel Seymour Circuit workout Warm up with a five-minute walk or jog. Start with lifts that work one major muscle group first — such as chest press or leg press — and do three sets of one-minute reps with 30 seconds in between sets. Start your stopwatch and do chest press for one minute. Rest for 30 seconds and repeat three times. Move to another life in that muscle group. If you started with chest press, successively move to shoulder press, upright rows, lateral pull-downs and then incline press. You could also add bicep curls or triceps extensions if you want. Remember to keep time; the pace of the workout keeps your heart rate elevated. Move to the next muscle group. Start with a major muscle group first. If you just completed upper body, start with leg press and do three sets of one-minute reps with 30 seconds of rest in between sets. Move to calf raises, leg curls and leg extensions. If time allows, you can add inner and outer thigh lifts and lunges. Cool down with a five-minute walk or jog. 05.12.05 Jayplay 17 Bees are crafty little creatures. They can pollinate plants, turn over soil and some can make a sweet treat in a day's work. But they aren't known to be the friendliest insects around. If you're stung, remove the stinger by scraping it out with a credit card or knife. Don't pinch the area, you could release more venom. To ease the burning rub a wet aspirin or a paste made from baking soda and water on the area. You can also take a pain reliever or antihistamine to reduce the swelling and soreness. You can't avoid bees completely, but you can become less inviting. If you'll be outdoors, pass up the perfume and brightly colored clothes. "Bee" safe —Leigh Ann Foskey Source: mothernature.com Quickfix Give your old shirts a new purpose in life. Right after I decided to attend the University of Kansas, one of my great aunts bought me practically every KU sweats shirt in stock at the second-hand store where she worked. While the gesture was appreciated, I never cared much for wearing sweatshirts. But instead of letting them sit in the bottom of my closet, my mom had a better idea. She turned them into pillows. You can do the same with any favorite T-shirt or sweatshirt you have lying around. Just cut out the shape of the pillow that you want from the front and the back of the shirt. With the wrong side of the shirt on the outside, sew the two pieces KANSAS JAYHAWKS together, leaving a hole on one side. Turn the pillow inside out through the hole and then fill with stuffing — cotton, foam or even pieces of other old T-shirts. Stitch up the hole. Now your favorite old T-shirt can live on without taking up closet space. Donovan Atkinson Assemblyrequired COYOTE'S COUNTRY BAR AND NIGHTCLUB THURSDAY IS LADIES NIGHT?

Now playing at South Wind 12 Great movies linger with us after the lights dim and the credits roll as we leave the theater and go out for coffee afterward to discuss what was just seen with a friend who you saw it with. Crash is a perfect example of that kind of movie. It features more than a dozen people strung together through coincidence. These characters have nothing in common with each other — they have different jobs, live in different parts of town and are part of different social classes. But one thing is similar: They all feel separated by their races. Crash does not have a central plot, and it's made up of several smaller plots that mingle every now and then. Some of the plots and characters work better than others: A pair of black thieves (Terrance Howard, Ludacris) carjack the SUV of a white couple (Sandra Bullock, Brendan Fraser); two cops (Matt Dillon, Ryan Phillippe) pull over and harass a black couple because one of the cops mistakenly thinks its occupants (Larenz Tate, BROOKLYN NEW YORK JUNE 20 1995 Thandie Newton) for an interracial couple; two police detectives (Don Cheadle, Jennifer Esposito) investigate a shooting death between white and black undercover police officers; a Persian shopkeeper (Shaun Toub) buys a gun and keeps being mistaken for "Osama." Downfall (☆☆) R. 156 minutes Starts tomorrow at Liberty Hall One of the most interesting things about this movie is that it presents its characters as flawed, most all are racist on some level, but that they came to be that way through circumstances beyond their control and can still be decent human beings. One character in particular is first presented as a total scumbag, but the audience is forced to re-evaluate him after an act of heroism. All of the performances are excellent, particularly Cheadle, Dillon and Newton. Though some characters and coincidences are a little too much, the payoff is a thought-provoking movie that stays with you. In his review of Mel Gibson's The Passion of the Christ, film critic Roger Ebert wrote: "I prefer to evaluate a film on the basis of what it intends to do, not on what I think it should have done." Oliver Hirschbiegel's Downfall, which is one of the first German productions to deal at length with the Nazis, depicts the final years of the Third Reich. Based in part on the memoirs of Hitler's stenographer, Traudl Junge, this 2005 Best Foreign-Language Film Oscar nominee achieves a grim authenticity as it stalks the mazelike bunker below Berlin, where the Führer pores over maps and screams himself blue in the face before blowing his own head off. The fact that Junge claims to have been largely unaware of the Nazis' misdeeds while she was under their employment strikes me as very convenient. Telling the film through her point of view gives Hirschbiegel the dramatic license to ignore the war's most unimaginable atrocities. A postscript states, "Six million Jews were murdered," and it almost comes across as an apology for the filmmaker's reckless oversight. Jon Ralston Allow me to violently disagree. All images courtesy www.movies.yahoo.com By now, most filmmakers seem to understand the risks they're taking with the Holocaust. When Schindler's List grossed $321 million worldwide, director Steven Spielberg dispensed his profits to Holocaust and Jewish-continuity projects. "It was blood money," Spielberg said in an interview with the New York Times Magazine. Hirschbiegel doesn't seem to have learned the same lesson. What makes his film so infuriating is how absolutely compelling it is. Every time the director invited me to connect with the officers onscreen on an emotional level, a little voice in my head said, "Dude, they're Nazis!" If you can get past the film's questionable narrative device, this is a vivid historical epic. Hirschbiegel meticulously recreates the fall of Berlin, and Bruno Ganz's lead performance is a triumph of controlled lunacy. There's also a heartbreaking subplot involving the horribly brainwashed children of Joseph and Magda Goebbels. Still, I couldn't help thinking I was watching a dangerously skewed film. —Stephen Shupe F European Groceries European Gifts Au Marché The European Market Downtown 931 Massachusetts 865-0876 www.aumarcbe.com Bring in this ad for 20% off your next purchase Looking for money?

Movie (★★1/2) DVD (★★★) R,107 minutes Anton Newcombe is not a household name, but to hear him tell it, he may be the most gifted musician of our time. Actually Newcombe's talents are undeniable. As the creative force behind the Brian Jonestown Massacre, he's a pioneer of the San Francisco rock revival that spawned such acts as the Dandy Warhols and the Black Rebel Motorcycle Club. However, his band's lack of success is due not to a lack of talent, but a lack of control. Newcombe's volatility and destructive nature is constantly derailing himself and his band. $DIGi$ is the sprawling yet intimate documentary of The Brian Jonestown Massacre and the Dandy Warhols over the course of seven years. Beginning in 1995, when both bands were still underground and underdeveloped, the film chronicles the friendship that arose between the Dandys and Newcombe. At the time Newcombe was a local legend, and the BJM were churning out album after album. He was regarded by all around as this incredible creative force, but the drugs and the egos and the jealousy ate away at Newcombe's chances of making it big. While the Dandy Warhols were off working to build a career, Newcombe continually sabotaged his chances for success. Newcombe seems to be completely devoid of business acumen, and his inability to function sanely is maddening to those around him. After seven years, the Dandys became an international success, and Newcombe is still performing at small venues and fighting with the audience. Newcombe's antics are maddening. He has so much talent, but it all goes to waste. The film does a masterful job of revealing the strange relationship that exists between the two bands. They're collaborators and competitors at the same time. Paring down seven years of footage into 100 minutes must be daunting as well. However, for the avid fan, there are over two hours of bonus footage on the DVD, along with rnusic videos and live performances. There is no telling what the Brian Jonesetm Massacre could have been, but Newcombe's inability to function in the real world seems to have damned them to anonymity. But perhaps restraint and concession are too much to ask of a man who states, "I never apologize because I never make mistakes." Will Lamborn Cinderella Man (★★★) PG-13, 144 minutes Opening in theatres on June 3, Cinderella Man is the next pairing of director Ron Howard and star Russell Crowe since 2003's phenomenally successful and Oscar-winning A Beautiful Mind. The movies also share the same producer and writer. Again based on true events, the film tackles the story of boxer Jimmy Braddock, world heavy-weight champion who overcame tremendous odds to keep himself and his family together and alive, rising out the Great Depression in the 1930s as hero to the common man. Although relatively unknown now, the boxer seems to have made a huge impact at the time, and the film adapts the story realistically, depicting a time when it was difficult to feed your children and remain honest. The film owes a lot to Russell Crowe, who portrays a genuinely nice guy who gets kicked down wherever he turns but still remains true to his family and friends. The chemistry between him and his two co-stars — the brilliant Paul Giamatti and Renée Zellweger — works well, and the characters bloom into real people through the course of the film. The surrounding cast also shines, creating a presence that complements the leads. The film is given a timeless quality by the costumes, sets and I will not repeat it. the way it is filmed. The final third makes up for the rest of film, which often tends to be longwinded, yet doesn't have the feel of an epic. Where it works is that it remains subtle and as realistic as a Hollywood film can be. The fight scenes are brilliantly put together, especially the final fight, which had me inching closer and closer to the edge of my seat. The film does what it needs to do, without being flashy and big. —Michael Boyd No doubt this film will draw comparisons to this year's amazing Million Dollar Baby, and maybe as many Oscar nominations. But I wouldn't say this is better, because it is not as brave and doesn't go to the emotional lengths of that film. But it is well-constructed and does what cinema should do: seamlessly tell a story that should be told with prize performances, beautiful cinematography and able directing, deservedly pushing this film into the ranks of one of the great sports films.

Yes, Fall Out Boy, the boy wonder side-kick from a running Batman parody on The Simpsons, is back with another album. From Under the Cork Tree basically carries on in a guitar heavy, sweet and melodic, but still chock full of screaming and tight drum beats. FALL OUT BOY At first listen, it sounds like more of the same, but when fully appreciated it actually poses some rather meaningful pop culture satire. The band jeopardizes its own reputation frequently for the sake of some jokes and references that most listeners probably won't get anyway. For instance, every song name is either extremely long, has alternate titles, or contains some sort of pun: "I've Got a Dark Alley and a Bad Idea that Says You Should Shut Your Mouth (Summer Song)" or "A Little Less Sixteen Candles, A Little More Touch Me." They are edgy enough to separate themselves from being compared to bands like Simple Plan or Good Charlotte, but maybe not mature enough to make it past the CD players of adolescent Warped Tour clientele. It was noble enough of them to sabotage themselves enough to make a spoof on screamo-emo ("I Slept With Someone In Fall Out Boy And All I Got Was This Stupid Song Written About Me) and '80s hair metal (7 Minutes in Heaven (Atavan Halen)) while still maintaining some musical integrity, but it still wasn't quite enough to get through to most, even to those who "get it." Grade: C —Joe Sibinski Tori Amos The Beekeeper In 20 years on this planet, I had never heard a Tori Amos record before this week. Also prior to this week, I never thought that was such a bad thing. But after listening to The Beekeeper, Amos' latest addition to her ample catalogue, I realized life without Tori Amos is no life at all. The album is Jori Amos the BEAUTEFUL FAN both heart-achingly fragile and inspiringly powerful; Amos peppers her mind-melting instrumentation with gorgeous imagery, evoking emotion at will like some sort of primordial fiery haired sprite. Amos' honeyed, boundless vocals document a number of shifting perspectives on The Beekeeper: seductress, victim, patriot, mother, feminist. She finds liberation in each and there is a sense that all are united by common thread. Each role flows seamlessly into the next, overlapping and connecting. Joined by the London Community Gospel Choir on "Sweet the Sting" (who sound too much like the Dandy Warhols to be simple coincidence), Amos wanders through a cloudy, sexual haze accompanied by a man with a "hat cocked sure, defiantly." "Ribbons Undone" features a delicate piano and celebrates the relationship between a mother and a daughter who "runs like a fire does, just picking up daises / Comes in for a landing, a pure flash of lightning." On "Original Sinsuality," Amos ruminates on the possibility that sexuality pre-dates sin, thereupon questioning the whole of conservative dogma. At 19 tracks, though, The Beeekeeper is bound to stumble. "Cars and Guitars" is hokey nostalgia and wouldn't sound all that out of place on a modern country compilation, stuck between Toby Keith and some other dude who likes to fish and change his motor oil. "Hoochie Woman" clearly suffers from the use of a lame, anachronistic term such as "hoochie," and the ominous piano riff sounds about as fresh. Nearly 80 minutes long, The Beekeeper challenges the concept of time and the attention of those crippled with ADD. After all, in 80 minutes, you could prepare a nice flan or do at least 3,000 sit-ups. But I wasted 20 years of my life in a pre-Amos stupor and I'm better since emerging from it. Forget the flan and the sit-ups; listen to The Beekeeper instead. Grade: A- —Dave Ruigh Fuel for Thought 100 mpg $899 & Up Subsonic Scooters 624 N. 2nd Street.

Area 51 is a first person shooter that brings to life many of the popular conspiracies all while the player shoots the living out of mutated humanoid aliens, one of whom is Marilyn Manson. Area 51 PS2, Xbox, PC You may have deja vu when playing this game as it is very much similar to Halo 2. You can dual wield weapons, throw grenades, and introduce your enemies in a burr of your gun. it's really not a bad thing, though, because Halo 2 is pretty badass. Area 51 employs an interesting gameplay twist that has the character infected by a virus that changes him into a strong, fast, alien killing machine. You can't use weapons while in this form, but it has some unique powers. Mutagen can be thrown at enemies, slowly draining their health. Powerful claws and super speed allow the player to quickly dispatch the opposition. The weapons are pretty stan- dard, but there are some interesting ones that use alien technology. One shoots balls of bouncing energy and another reminds me of the BFG from *Quake II* that shoots a large ball of energy with beams coming out of it seeking targets. Grade: Breal feeling. You can hear the intensity in each fight. All in all the game is fairly fun but limited in scope. Multiplayer consists solely of a death match and is not all that fun. And any game with Marilyn Manson as an alien is worth checking out in my book. —Nick Finnegan Star Wars Episode 3: Revenge of the Sith PS2, Xbox May 19th... hope I'm in a movie theater that day kicking back, eating popcorn and watching one of the greatest movie sagas come to a close. As the ad in *Electronic Gaming Monthly* says, "Before you see the intense sazer-sizing droid-frying, force-bending, action of the movie, make some of your own." And that's exactly what I did. When I started playing this game, I never wanted to put the controller down. The action is intense and in *Star Wars fashion*, the story is epic. The voice acting is great in the game. The actors from The Clone Wars on Cartoon Network lend their voices to the game, so they are familiar with how to portray each character. Hearing Anakin speak during his battles adds more to the feeling that he believes he is stronger than anyone he faces. It gives it a more The style of gameplay took me a little by surprise. At first, I thought you picked one of the Jedi and played his story of the story. However, this game is composed of 16 missions with you controlling Anakin or Obi-Wan, taking turns doing their part in the movie. You have no control over which Jedi you get to be. This game is strictly combat. If you see an enemy in front of you, you'd best dispatch them before they dispatch you. As you complete each level, you gain experience. You then use the experience to strengthen your Jedi. You can use it to increase your fighting power or your ability to use the Force. With each level gained, you can acquire new combs and Force powers to use. The saber dueling is intense. The game, like each prequel, has fast-paced lightsaber action. Fighters against other Jedi, it's almost impossible to know where they're going to strike next because they twirl their lightsaber so fast. You're better off blocking and hoping that you'll find an opening. The game also supports a multiplayer function. There is cooperative mode where you and a friend can play with each other, as well as dueling mode, where you can face a friend and find out who is better with the lightsaber. The game also has extras such as conceptual art and scenes from the movie. Revenge of the Sith is another great Star Wars game. I was brought back to my Jedi Power Battle days, but this one is way more intense and has better graphics and gameplay to boot. I'm not really shy of a few spoilers, so I had no problem playing this game before seeing the movie. Chris Moore Grade: A 1307-1326 Psychonauts Xbox, PS2, PC It's challenging, and the free-learning environment allows players to roam about freely experimenting with their character's psychic powers. I spent half my time chasing squirrels around trying to light them on fire and the developers anticipated my twisted desire to roast small animals alive. Roasting the little furry creatures is the easiest way to find food and regain health. At first glance Psychonauts appears to be a game for kids. The world is colorful, and the characters are doing child-like things such as playing tag. The story takes place at summer camp, which led me to think I had stumbled into a kids game, but the "Teen" rating holds true. This game isn't a kids' game. The gameplay is challenging and the regular addition of new psychic powers to your arsenal keeps you from getting bored. The level design is insanely creative; one level is a cube floating in space, and if you run to the edge of the cube and off you land on another side of the cube, the strange-but-creative touch is what Psycho has going for it. If at first glance you think there'd be dark platformer you are sadly mistaken. This game is more than standard. Everything feels polished, the script is hilarious, the combat is fluid and the graphics are the most unique I've seen in years. The game takes place at a summer camp where children learn to use their psychic powers to fight evil. Your character - Raz - has run away from his family at circumcision to learn how to become a Psychic teacher. In the camp, strange things start to happen in his friends and Raz works hard to develop his psychic powers to help his friends.

We stopped at islands to explore; we even got to spend two luxu- rious nights sleeping in rustic tents on land at the Out Illustration by Scott Drummond Heavy waves forcefully rocked the small boat as I leaned toward the fresh air from under the tarp draped above us. My head spun as I held back the urge to vomit. "Why the hell am I here? I'm miserable!" The first night of my Outward Bound trip was the scariest, with seven days of boat life ahead of me. I was on a 30-foot sailboat in the rocky waters of the Atlantic Ocean, huddled with 13 strangers under a tarp protecting us from the rain and waves. Several people had vomited off the side of the boat while others moaned in misery. I had not thought to bring any medicine for seasickness. This was one of the countless challenges I faced during my nautical adventure, living, eating and sleeping on a boat. I was 18 years old, fresh out of high school, and I wanted an experience that would help me become a more independent person. Outward Bound is a program known for its action-packed wilderness trips that challenge participants to extremes and help build character. This trip was the perfect opportunity to help me become more self-reliant, something I needed before my first year at the University of Kansas. I chose the Maine sailing expedition; it sounded fun to cruise around the ocean, and it didn't require any prior boating experience. I guess I had expected a cushier boat and better weather. I didn't realize exactly what I had gotten myself into until that first night, nauseated and disheartened. There was nowhere to run, nowhere to hide and definitely no warm bed to sleep in. Through the week, my tolerance for the steady motion of the sea improved. We ward Bound-operated Hurricane Island. I can most clearly remember the extremes of the trip. The worst times were rowing for hours in dead air. If there was no wind we didn't have the option to just hang out. We had to be moving toward that day's destination. We would take turns rowing and rowing with thick, heavy wood oars. One day we rowed for four hours straight. We sang Cat Stevens and Paul Simon songs to pass the time. The good times were euphoric. We spent several of the days basking in the sun while a steady wind transported our boat effortlessly. Our 14-person crew would talk and laugh as if we had known each other for years. Throughout the week, I grew to love these strangers like close friends. The last day was the worst and the best. We woke to fog and rain. We rowed all morning, without wind or sun. By the afternoon, the wind picked up and we were flying along to our destination. The wind was now so strong it was producing 3-foot-high waves that steadily crashed against the boat. Two other girls and I lay helplessly together, soaked in cold, salty water, our heads whirling. By night, we were anchored in the harbor of the Outward Bound School in Rockland, Maine, depleted of all energy. Our asses itched and stung from being wet all day. When dinnertime came, we realized we had forgotten to pack pasta noodles and we were at the end of our food rations. were flying along We spotted two sea-faring boys in a motorboat and desperately yelled to them, asking if they'd bring us some pasta. The teen boys, Amos and Obe, asked us if we liked lobster. Ten minutes later they came back with two live lobsters from their traps. Tears formed in my eyes. One of the guides broke out a huge pot and started boiling water on the propane stove. The last night of my trip we ate This meal was the culmination of eight days of struggle and triumph. Even though I was the one who wanted to be on that boat, once I was actually on it, I questioned my decision. By nature, I am not one who enjoys situations where I am physically uncomfortable. Even though I was prepared for a rough experience, I think I romanticized the trip before the start. But the trip did what it was supposed to do; My Outward Bound experience thickened my skin and made me a stronger person physically and emotionally. The situations I faced out in that ocean help me to know that I can overcome small problems here, such as having to walk home in the rain, problems that might seem tragic otherwise. I will always have a layer of skin that formed out in that ocean; it reassures me that I am more capable than I may think.

Both the Campanile and the stadium are World War II memorials Lift the chorus ever onward Journey ends, begins on hill BY JASON SHAAD jshaad@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER Commencement walk down Mount Oread unchanged since 1924 Every year near graduation, Jeff Weinberg gets a call from someone who wants a second chance. Weinberg, assistant to the chancellor, said there were always some people who graduated years ago, but for some reason never got to walk down the hill for the commencement ceremony. "It's always interesting that 30 or 40 or 50 years later someone calls and says they want to walk down the hill," Weinberg said. "We always say 'Of course.' That means Scottie Lingelbach, 83, can experience a tradition she missed 61 years ago. Lingelbach graduated from the University in February of 1944 with a degree from the School of Business. After graduation she left for officer training school in the United States Navy. She couldn't come back for commencement. This year Weinberg invited her to return and walk with the graduating class of 2005. And because the University's commencement ceremony remains nearly unchanged since the walk down the hill began in 1924, Lingelbach will have the opportunity to make almost the same walk her fellow graduates made in 1944. "It's just something you look forward to," Lingelbach said. "I never regretted getting out early, but the "It's just something you look forward to. I never regretted getting out early, but the tradition does mean so much that if you don't walk down the hill then you regret it." tradition does mean so much that if you don't walk down the hill then you regret it." More than 4,000 students will walk down the hill on Sunday for the University's 133rd commencement ceremony. Scottie Ligelbach KU class of 1944 It's a ceremony unique to the University, Weinberg said. The entire event is conducted without rehearsal. There is no graduation ceremony fee. And there is no major commencement speaker. Only Chancellor Robert Hemenway speaks during the event. "If there is another ceremony like ours, I haven't heard of it," Weinberg said. At 2 p.m. on Sunday, advanced degree candidates and students from the 13 professional schools and the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences will line Memorial Drive behind the Campanile. At 2:30 p.m., trumpets will signal the beginning of the procession down the hill. With caps, gowns and school banners in hand, students will slowly flow through the Campanile and down both sides of the hill into Memorial Stadium. SEE HILL ON PAGE 2 UNIVERSITY MARKETING 'Tradition-rich' University thinks forward BY ANDREW VAUPEL avaupel@kansan.com KANSAN EDITOR The University of Kansas is seeking input from students, alumni or anyone with an interest in the University on four designs that were released for consideration as a new symbol on Monday. The designs, which can be viewed at www.ur.ku.edu/marketing/, are simple renditions of the initials "KU". A different typeface was used for each symbol. The visual identity team has spent the last several months examining a variety of logos, said David Johnston, director of marketing. Early designs included landmarks such as the Campanile, state symbols and objects like sunflowers, stars and "We are a very tradition-rich University that inspires to be very forward-thinking in our research," Johnston said. "We discovered that the truest symbol for KU was KU. So we gravitated toward letter-based symbols." What people will see in the finalists are a focus on academics with a modern sensibility, he said. wheat, as well as academic symbols. Other early designs centered on the K, but the U was lost. The four designs, created by the firm LandreyMorrow, were posted so the public could view and comment on the final designs. After the period for public comment ends May 30, a team led by Chancellor Robert Hemenway will choose the new symbol in June. The new symbol is part of the University's initiative to develop and implement an integrated marketing plan, said Johnston. Their research indicated that a 'new symbol was needed to fill the gap between the Jayhawk, which is fun and informal, and the University seal, which is very official and formal. LandreyMorrow was paid $88,900 for creation and implementation of an effective visual identity. The cost was paid through private funds. Earlier this year the first signs of the new plan could be seen when the University designated royal blue as the official KU blue. Crimson is the University's other official color. In addition to the visual identity, Johnston said the integrated marketing plan would help bring consistency to the KU Chancellor Robert Hemenway said the University must be more effective and efficient in telling its story. "We must take great care in managing our image and reputation," Hemenway wrote in a fall statement regarding the KU Integrated Marketing Plan. "Using marketing techniques will help us to better communicate the KU story, to reach out to our many audiences, and to paint a vivid picture of what makes our university great." story.

It's a sight and experience unlike any other, said Jennifer Sher, graduate of the class of 2004. "You have all the people from your class together for the first time in this shared experience," Sher said. "It's something you wait for since your freshman year and it's awesome." The tradition of the commencement procession at Memorial Stadium began in 1924. In 1950 graduates began walking through the Campanile on their way down So have unusual celebrations. Students in the past have done everything from wearing giant bobble-heads to streaking, said Stephen Grabow, professor of architecture and former University marshal for commencement. A girl even brought her pet boa constrictor down the hill with her one year, Weinberg said. "It was bizarre," Weinberg said. But the ceremony requires a certain formality. "It's an important and solemn event," Weinberg said. "It means a lot to the University and to the graduates and their guests." After walking down the hill, students are seated at the north end of the stadium and the formal commencement ceremony begins. Mabel Rice, the University Marshal, will introduce Chancellor Robert Hemenway to speak. Hemenway will confer the degrees to the deans of each school before making his commencement speech. The event will conclude at about 4:30 p.m. with the singing of the alma mater. "It was a great end to one of the best times in my life," Sher said. — Edited by Steve Vockrodt Logos CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1A visual identity last summer to people affiliated with the University—including students, faculty and staff. The survey asked about what values people associate with the University's names and symbols. $32,000 for a visual identity survey. It also conducted a prospective student survey and an opinion leaders survey. The cost was paid through private funds. The survey results released in September indicated a new symbol was needed to fill the gap between the official seal and Jayhawk. Carnegie Communications was paid --- "These traditional KU symbols will not change," according to the Web site, "but a new one will be added to fit within a comprehensive visual identity system satisfying all of KU's communication needs." After the symbol is selected in June and new visual identity standards are implemented in August, the University's visual identity will be seen everywhere from stationery and recruitment materials to Web sites and videos.

And he hopes to continue being a part of that community even after he graduates this May. Danielson was recently chosen as the graduating senior for the annual Campanile Award because of his leadership in campus organizations. The award was established by the class of 2000 as their class gift and is decided upon every year by fellow students from the Board of Class Officers. The award is given annually to a graduating senior who displays "significant leadership, service to the community, and outstanding character," said Nicholas Lawler, senior and president of the board. The Campanile Award is different than other senior awards because it is chosen by students only. After accepting nominations, the board selected seven finalists. The chosen finalists wrote an essay about their contribution to the KU and Lawrence communities. From the essays and an interview with each nominee, the class officers chose Danielson After graduation, Danielson will be pursuing a master's degree in higher education at the University and will be a graduate assistant in the admissions office. "Education is so important," he said. "I've had a well-rounded opportunity," said Danielson of his time at the University of Kansas. In his four years at the University of Kansas, he served as a resident assistant at Oliver Hall, president of the Biology Club and on the University Affairs Committee in Student Senate. He has also been a part of Campus Crusade for Christ, Delta Sigma Phi Fraternity and Golden Key International Honor Society. Danielson said his ability to impact future generations was why he decided to pursue higher education. "I love the college experience," he said. "There have Danielson, Sioux Falls, S.D. senior, has also served on advisory committees for biology and Western Civilization and Humanities majors. He will graduate May 22 with a bachelor of arts in biology and Western Civilization. Danielson said he came to the University to branch out and meet other people. The University was also one of few schools that would allow him to major in both biology and Western Civilization. "Being able to do both has been so enriching of my years at KU." Danielson said. been highs and lows, and most of the highs were from being involved." He said his variety of activities was what earned him the Campanile award. Danielson said his involvement led him pursue his master's in higher education. Each class at the University has four representatives in the Board of Class Officers. In addition to selecting the Campanile Award winner, the board also chooses the class motto, the class gift and creates the class banner, which is displayed as the seniors walk down the hill. "The Board of Class Officers has been around for well over half a century and works to promote student life and recognize excellence in the University community," Nicholas Lawler, president of the board, said. Danielson said he was excited to graduate. "It's been a long journey," he said, "it will be nice." - Edited by Kendall Dix HONORS GRADUATES Distinctions draw from each school By JOE SIRNSKI correspondent@hansan.com KANSAN CORRESPONDENT Of the thousands of students graduating from the University of Kansas this spring; only an elite few will graduate with honors. After this semester, 158 students will have graduated from the Honors Program since last summer. Honors students must maintain a minimum GPA of 3.25 during their undergraduate career and take at least eight honors and/or graduate level courses. Most will be graduating from the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, but this year all University schools will have representatives from the Honors Program. Honors Program The guest speaker at the honors ceremony will be current president and CEO of the Kansas Board of Regents, Reggie Robinson. Robinson is an associate professor of law at the University and has also worked at the United States Department of Justice. He was appointed by President Clinton as the youngest member of the Commission of White House Fellowships in 1999. He gave a speech for the Honors Program at its opening convocation two years ago, has taught honors courses and spoke at seminars. "He's a good friend of the completion criteria — such as online enrollment for the program — adding more undergraduate research and scholarship opportunities, and created more social activities for the students. The program is working to fine tune the curriculum, and even establish an Honors Council that would function as part of the government to create even more opportunities for honors students. Honors Program," Sandy Wick, associate director of the Honors Program, said. The ceremony, to be held at 1 p.m. Saturday at the Crafton-Preyer Theatre in Murphy Hall, will begin with a procession of the students, followed by an introduction and a guest speaker. During the cording ceremony each student will be awarded a cord for their achievement. Each member of the staff will take turns handing out the cords to the students. The KU Honors Program is always changing with the times to better serve the University's best and brightest students. In the past few years it has expanded its staff, further refined the It is no small feat to be graduating with honors and the students, parents, professors, and anyone else who helped make it possible for them should be very proud. — Edited by Nikola Rowe Heard on the Hill Compiled by Zachary Watson What was your most memorable KU-related event from the last four years?

Some native Kansans grew up knowing and loving the Jayhawk and having pictures taken with the mythical mascot. Even those who are new to the University come to appreciate the Jayhawk after just a year on the KU campus.The Jayhawk has been mocked by rival university for the simple fact that it has never actually existed. But students at the University of Kansas know better. The Jayhawk stands for something more, it symbolizes the spirit of the University of Kansas. Even the school song expresses the importance of the Jayhawk to every student at the University. "I'm a Jayhawk" encapsulates the spirit of the Jayhawk. The Jayhawk traces its roots to the Civil War, just like the rivalry with Mizzou, as it was the name of free-state soldiers. These Jayhawkers objected to Kansas becoming a slave state and raided neighboring state Missouri to protest their slavery. The Jayhawk is only one of many traditions, myths, and superstitions that exist on Mount Oread. Explore the richness and tradition of the University of Kansas. — Bailey DeReus Very SUPERSTITIOUS Vulture Kansan file photo According to KU legend, the bronze Jayhawk in front of Strong Hall on Jayhawk Boulevard will fly away the day a girl graduates a virgin. Numerous myths and superstitions have accumulated during the 150 years since the founding of the University of Kansas. While some Jayhawks shrug off the notion of mysterious superstitions controlling the fate of students, many of these myths and legends have managed to grow into tall tales and exaggerations This superstition most likely grew from campus pride in and respect for the Campanile. For instance, many Jayhawks believe that if students walk through the Campanile during their undergraduate years, they will not make it to graduation day. Another popular KU myth is if a woman graduates from the University as a virgin, the Jayhawk statue in front of Strong Hall will turn into a real bird and fly away. Numerous students likewise believe that Wescoe Hall was originally planned to be a parking garage, but that is not the case. Wescoe was planned to be the tallest building on campus, but the University ran short of funding and had no choice but to finish the building with only four floors, none of which were supposed to be a parking garage. One of the most talked about myths at the University is the story of the origin of the Jayhawk. The Jayhawk was born during the "Bleeding Kansas" era before the Civil War. The Confederate sympathizers from Missouri created the word "Jayhawk" to describe the tactics and characteristics of Kansas abolitionists. Kansans were infamous for being aggressively territorial, like the Blue Jay, and also impressive attackers, similar to hawks. Because Kansans exhibited both of these bird's characteristics, people began to call Kansans "Jayhawks." Myths and rumors seem to grow with time no matter what. Historians discuss how things really happened and develop numerous theories. The same goes with many of the legends lurking around campus today. Whether these legends are true, one must admit they all lend more authenticity and character to the University's history and humble beginnings. THE TOLLING OF THE BELLS — David Schaeffer The Campanile, atop the University's famous Mount Oread, adds to the many lures of the KU campus. Tolling every quarter hour and ringing with the sound of the Alma Mater this weekend, the inner workings of the Campanile (camp-eHNEE-lee) deserve explanation. About 10 students play and study the carillon (KAREeh-lon), the instrument inside the Campanile, each semester. A University Carillonneur teaches carillon classes in the School of Fine Arts, at levels 100,300 and 621. Students of any major may study the carillon, whether they're undergraduate or graduate students. The Campanile is a World War II memorial, built in 1950 The carillon has four octaves in range and is played live weekdays, during holidays, for special concerts, some on-campus weddings and graduation. The carillon's quarterly tolls are mechanical, but the songs played at noon and 5 p.m. Monday through Friday when school is in session are not. Students play them live four days a week. Having a carillon on the KU campus is unique because there aren't more than 200 carillons in the world. and dedicated in 1951, to honor the 277 faculty and students lost in the war. The 53bell carillon was cast by the John Taylor Bellfoundry of Loughborough, England. The dream of bringing a carillon to the KU campus began with KU philosopher Olin Templin about 60 years before it was constructed. He passed away before plans for the carillon began. "The carillon is not only important because it's a memorial, but because it's part of our school's history and a part of our college experience," said Erin Morrissey Portland, Ore., senior and student caril- The carrillon is not only important because it's a memorial, but because it's part of our school's history and a part of our college experience."

Birth of Jayhawk songs: Sing them loud, sing them often College students and faculty used to make up school songs — and sing them. Many have faded away, but two struck a responsive chord and still are sung enthusiastically. In 1891, professor George Barlow Penny searched for a school song for the Glee and Mandolin Club to sing on a tour. Just before departure, he thought of Cornell's "Far Above Cayuga's Waters." Changing a few words, Penny taught it to the glee club. The campus has been singing "Crimson and the Blue" ever since. George "Dumpy" Bowles, class of 1912, longed to make a contribution to KU spirit. He wasn't football-sized, but he could write music. One of his musical shows had a song called "I'm a Jayhawk." Written in 1912, it became a hit with students in 1920. The 1926 glee club performed it nationally. Chant enjoys illustrious career The University Science Club officially adopted the famous "Rock Chalk" chant in 1886. A chemistry professor, E.H.S. Bailey, and some of his associates were returning from a conference by train to Lawrence. As they traveled, they talked of the need for a good, rousing vell. The click-clack of the train wheels passing over the rail joints suggested a rhythm and a cadence to them. At first, their version was "Rah, Rah, Jayhawk, KU" repeated three times. Later, in place of the "rahs," an English professor suggested "Rock Chalk," a transposition of chalk rock, the name for the limestone outcropping found on Mount Oread, site of the Lawrence campus. The cheer became known worldwide. President Teddy Roosevelt said it was the greatest college chant he'd ever heard. Kansas troops used it while fighting in the Philippines in 1899, in the Boxer Rebellion in China and in World War II. At the Olympic games in 1920, the King of Belgium asked for a typical American college vell. The assembled athletes agreed on Rock Chalk and rendered it for His Majesty. Jayhawks haven't always bled crimson and blue maize and blue were shown at oratorical meets, and they may have colored the Kansas crew in rowing competitions in the mid-1880s. But in 1890, when football arrived on campus, a The University's colors have been crimson and blue since the early 1890s. Originally, the Kansas Board of Regents decided to adopt the University of Michigan's colors: maize and sky blue. clamor arose for Harvard's crimson to honor Col. John J. McCook, a Harvard man who had given money for the KU athletic field. Faculty members who had graduated from Yale insisted that their academic lineage and Yale blue not be overlooked. In 1896, the University officially adopted crimson and blue. Jayhawk: From passion to pride The University of Kansas Jayhawk is a mythical bird with a fascinating history. The term "Jayhawk" was probably coined about 1848. The name combines two birds — the blue jay, a noisy, quarrelsome bird known to rob other nests, and the sparrow hawk, a stealthy hunter. The message here: Don't turn your back on this bird. During the 1850s, the Kansas Territory was filled with such Jayhawks. The name stuck especially in Lawrence, where the University would come to exist. During the Civil War, the Jayhawk's ruffian image gave way to patriotic symbol. Kansas Governor Charles Robinson raised a regiment called the Independent Mounted Kansas Jayhawks. By war's end, Jayhawks were synonymous with the impassioned people who made Kansas a free state. In 1886, the bird appeared in a cheer — the famous Rock Chalk chant. When KU football players first took the field in 1890, it seemed only natural to call them Jayhawkers. It is Harold D. Sandy's 1946 design of a smiling Jayhawk that survives. The design was copyrighted in 1947. In the 1960s, the Jayhawk went 3-D when the University of Kansas Alumni Association provided a mascot costume. In 1971, during Homecoming halftime, a huge egg was hauled out to the 50-yard line, and fans witnessed the hatch of Jay's companion — "Baby Jay."

The weekend before the last week of classes, Willson worked with about seven other architecture students in their shared studio space on a Saturday night. BY KIM WALLACE correspondent@hansan.com KANRAN CORRESPONDENT Carrying on with tradition, the School of Architecture and Urban Design's stadium commencement and luncheon at the Kansas Union Ballroom will attract more than 500 people to celebrate the achievements of its school's graduates. William A. Bauersox, FAIA, will be the keynote speaker and distinguished alumnus for the school. He is an architect with Powers Bauersox Associates in St. Louis and a 1964 Bachelor of Architecture graduate. "We choose role models for our graduates, people who are accomplished in practice and who have proven themselves through years of experience." John Gaunt, dean of the school, said. Bauersox has received 29 awards for excellence in design for the past 26 years and was also named Outstanding Architect of the Year by the St. Louis Chapter of the American Institute of Architects. He plans to give an insightful speech peppered with humor and wisdom as well as useful advice for the graduates as they enter their professional fields. "I am sure I will benefit from his advice," Eman S. Ismaiel, honor graduate, said. As honor graduate, Ismaiel is given the privilege of carrying the school's banner in the front of the line of graduates walking down the hill through the Campanile. Other awards include the Thayer medal, given to the student with the top studio GPA; the AIA medal, given at the bachelor's and master's levels to the students with the top GPAs and the AIA certificate, which awards the second top GPAs. These students' names have been saved for the graduation ceremony. in coming years AIA medals and certificates will only be presented at the master's level. The school will switch to a fully graduate program in architecture beginning in Fall 2006. It will offer a broader curriculum and base of architectural education for students. "This has 'been an ongoing subject for many years and has been hard to do because of the long established pattern," Gaunt said. "It is not dismantling and not as much of a change as it is an enhancement." Other modifications occurring in the school include the restructuring and demolition of facilities. Lindley Annex, a studio site that was meant to be a temporary building on campus and also a feeble WWII mess hall, will be torn down this summer. It is located south of Lindley Hall at Naismith Drive and Crescent Road. Marvin Hall was our communal space for self-expression and creation to communicate back the knowledge we gained. It became a part of our everyday lifestyle and I will definitely miss that." Eman S. Ismaiel School of Architecture graduating senior Eman S. Ismaie "Lindley Annex is where I had my first architecture class at KU and met my first friends," Ismael said. "It is where I was first introduced to architecture. It is definitely sad that it will be demolished. Somehow I think we took Renovations are in store for students as new studios with better space await construction. Students will also be able to work on projects in Snow Hall, located west of Strong Hall. pride in it being so ragged." even criticized Lindley Annex, and though it will be sorely missed, I see this as a qualitative advancement for our students," Gaunt said. Marvin Hall, located west of Budig Hall, still remains the heart of the architecture program and will continue to be a staple of the hard work of architecture students for years to come. "Many students complained, "This building has witnessed all of our efforts, struggles and great accomplishments during our years at KU," Ismaiel said. "The way studio promotes a sense of sharing is definitely a unique aspect of my experience at KU.

Top students to talk at ceremony BY DAVID SCHAFFER correspondent@hansan.com KANSAN CORRESPONDENT When David C. Brown was asked if he would speak at the business school graduation ceremony, he was honored. lanette Crawford/KANSAN Three speakers will speak to the graduating class and offer the students good wishes. Top graduates David Brown and Jeff Morrison will speak at the ceremony along with William L. Fuerst, dean of business. Recognized for their academic performance and leadership contributions, the business school appointed David Brown and Jeff Morrison because they are excellent role models for the students. Furthermore, the school of business will recognize two distinguished alumni who will also speak at the ceremony. The alumni selection is still pending. Fuerst acknowledged improvements in the school and the production of students who are well prepared for the working world."There have been increased successes by our faculty by combining research and teaching expertise to provide students with added value in the classroom." Fuerst also praised the students for their involvement in student-run organizations."Several of our student organizations have won local and national awards under the newly-formed undergraduate business council." During the last four years, the business school has seen a 25 percent increase in faculty ranks. This is partly due to funding provided by the differential tuition paid on business courses. The business school also experienced active student participation. After four years of intense work and preparation, the class of 2005 is ready to graduate. After the speeches have been given, the graduating class will wait for their name to be called to receive their diploma. This is the moment that students have anticipated their entire college career. For many students, saying goodbye isn't easy considering all the great times they've experienced. Though only a few short years were spent here, the memories shared will last a lifetime. Now students must harness all of their skills and resources acquired at the University and put them to use.

SCHOOL OF FINE ARTS -Bangole Ceremony offers some personal touches DRY BAYS PIZZA 341-5252 BY Kim WALLACE correspondent@hansan.com KANSAN CORRESPONDENT At this year's School of Fine Arts convocation ceremony, Chancellor Robert Hemenway and Steve Hedden, second-year dean of fine arts, will speak to the graduating class. "I plan on providing some simple strategies for success and sharing ideas with the graduates on how to make transitions," Hedden said. "I have enjoyed listening to Chancellor Hemenway speak on several occasions, but I am expecting something quite profound and inspiring from his commencement address," Jeffrey Robinson, Garnet senior, said. Graduates look forward to listening to the men speak. Though the chancellor has spoken during many other events, he usually offers a deeper, more personal lecture at commencement. The School of Fine Arts offers bachelor's degrees in arts, music and fine arts, as well as master's degrees. It also offers PhD's and Doctors of Music Arts, or DMA. Many students in the school double-major in an effort to expand their talents and expertise Doing so also allows them to see the differences in the schools. "I'm actually a student in both the School of Fine Arts and CLAS, and being in both has helped me realize that Fine Arts gives its students a lot of individual attention," said April Benson, Grand Island, Neb., graduate student. "A lot of our classes are small and most of us also take private lessons, so we get a significant amount of one-on-one time." Students also are bittersweet about leaving the school and the personal touches they have made within the program. "I think the graduates are excited about getting these because it's a nice memento to have on your desk as a reminder of all the hard work." Hedden said. That one-on-one attention is echoed in the ceremony. After graduates' names are announced, they will receive a marble paperweight with the school's seal engraved, as a personal gift. "I will miss the opportunity to just stop by a professor's office to chat about music theory, musicals and other things that the rest of the world doesn't always understand." Benson said. AT A GLANCE The School of Fine Arts convocation will be held at 10:30 a.m. on Saturday at the Lied Center. The school has seen many changes since the graduates first enrolled in 2001. Officials used a $500,000 grant from Hallmark Cards, Inc., for various renovations, including expanding the computer labs and studios in the Art and Design Building, located west of Budig Hall. In 2004-2005, $200,000 of the grant was spent for technology advancements in the design school. "We also have put more attention on expanded media classes for the art school, as well as computer and video animation for the design school," Heedden said. With many fine arts students coming back to work as part of the KU faculty, Hedden sees commencement as a time to strive for more success. "I hope that this class will continue the success of their predecessors," he said.

Nicolete Raya was chosen to speak at the ceremony this year by a committee for her community service, scholarship, involvement and leadership in professional organization activities and citizenship. "Nicolette Raya has been a stellar representative of the University of Kansas and the KU School of Pharmacy during her four years as a student in our program," Gene Hotchkiss, associate dean of pharmacy, said. "She has been a role model for fellow pharmacy students and her leadership abilities have been demonstrated by example." School highlights The School of Pharmacy recognition and hooding ceremony will be held at 6 p.m. Saturday at the Crafton-Preyer Theatre in Murphy Hall. Raya said she will speak about how hard her class has worked, as well as reminiscing about the last four years. The school was ranked No. 3 among all schools of pharmacy in the United States for national institutes of health funding in 2004. KU has been in the top three rankings for the last four years. - In the first-ever ranking of doctor of pharmacy degree granting programs, the KU school of pharmacy was ranked at No. 17 (No. 16 among public schools) by US News and World Report in 2005. Madison "AI" and Lila Self of Hinsdale, Illinois, established the Howard E. Mossberg Distinguished Professorship in Pharmacy in 2004. The professorship is named in honor of Howard E. Mossberg, Dean Emeritus of pharmacy at KU and will help KU and the school to attract an outstanding researcher and teacher in the area of pharmacogenomics. The KU student chapter of the National Community Pharmacists Association (NCPA) was named National Student Chapter of the Year for 2004 making it the fourth time in the last five years that KU has taken home the honor. She said would also speak about professionalism and integrity. "These are key if the profession is going to advance patient care and collaborate with other health care providers." she said. Raya is graduating with distinction in the top 10 percent of her class. She was also featured in the KU Women of Distinction Calendar in 2004. Holly Ruder is the top graduate of the class. "Holly and Nicolette are both very bright, articulate and active in professional and community activities and are very representative of the entire top 10 percent of the class of 2005," Kenneth Audus, dean of pharmacy, said. Matt Harrison, St. Louis senior, will graduate with Ruder and Raya. When looking back on his years at the University, he said one of his favorite memories was the basketball team making the finals. "It was thrilling to see everyone celebrate that together and come together as a university," Harrison said. 1234567890 He said he thinks his best memories will be celebrating accomplishments with classmates during graduation, but he has enjoyed working toward common goals with his classmates and going to class with the same people for the last four years.

M.CGINNIS correspondent@kansan.com KANSAN CORRESPONDENT Compassion. Caring. Concern. These are not simply words but deep-hearted feelings one feels toward other human beings. Social Welfare students know these feelings well. The ability to selflessly help others to try to make the world a better place has been the core of the School of Social Welfare since the program started in 1937. Two hundred, twenty-six thousand, eight hundred hours. That is the equivalent of 9,450 days, 26 years or watching "Fight Club" about 97,899 times. To students and instructors in the school, 226,800 hours is the amount of service provided to Kansas social service customers according to the school's annual report for 2003-2004. Despite the amount of work done on behalf of the community, oftentimes social workers have a negative stereotype with the public. Laurie Dale, St. James, Mo., graduating senior, said a common misconception of social workers was stemmed from child welfare. Workers are considered unwanted intruders within child welfare who show up on the doorstep to remove children, she said. While this is true in some cases, it by no means is the full scope of what social welfare is about. Dale wants the public to be able to move beyond the negative imagery and expand its understanding of social welfare. "Social work erupted from a willingness to respond passionately to a need," Dale said. "Social workers are not only present in the child welfare arena, but advocating in every sector for justice." Dale will be the featured student speaker for the 59 students graduating with a Bachelor of Social Welfare. In her speech, Dale will discuss other misconceptions and stereotypes people have about social welfare and the reasons people choose it as a career. Dale, who eventually wants to work as a lobbyist in the "The School of Social Welfare is like a little family. It is a very supportive environment, the professors and staff are so willing to help you and be your friend." SOCIAL WELFARE FACTS Laurie Dale St. James, Mo., graduating senior social welfare realm, chose the program because she wanted to have a strong base for critical analysis of social issues. She also wants to work toward not just helping people one at a time, but bettering society as a whole, she said.

She also said she will touch on the excellence of the educational programs at the School of Nursing. "Caring is the essence of nurse practice," said Miller.

MAY 20-22, 2005 SCHOOL OF MEDICINE First step on long road After several years of hard work and toil in the School of Medicine, graduates will have a pleasant ceremony to look forward to on Saturday before many of them forge ahead to the next stage of medical school. The 168 participants elected two graduates to speak at the ceremony — Justin Overmiller from the Wichita campus and John Rosen from the Kansas City, Kan., campus — followed by Dick Bond, chairman of the Board of Regents. Chancellor Robert Hemenway and executive vice chancellor Barbara Atkinson will also be on hand, capped off by brief remarks from governor Kathleen Sebelius. If it all seems like a big event for the school, that's because it is, said Laura Ziegler, assistant dead of student affairs. "We make it a big deal for everyone," Ziegler said.

Each graduate gets to the stage at the Lied Center and receives a hood from one of the deans of the School of Medicine. Between six and eight students will have the special opportunity to receive their hood from their parents, as long as their parents are School of Medicine faculty members or staff at the KU Medical Center, Ziegler said. "The Lied Center will be packed, no doubt about it." "It's an entire family affair," Ziegler said. "Everyone can bring as many people as they want." Altogether, the ceremony should last about 90 minutes, Ziegler said. The ceremony will also bestow several awards upon students for various reasons, ranging from academic excellence to pride in the profession to community service. "It itakes a while to get everyone across the stage, one by one." Ziegler said. But for students preparing for medical school, it should be worth the wait. - Kansan staff report Spring 2005 Graduates Graduate Amy Allen Srinivas Rao Bapoje Cameron Steele Betts Reaegan Denise Bond

of mixed feelings. This traditional hike marks the final day of classes, which means no more grueling hours spent studying in Green Hall, but then again, no more afternoons in The Wheel celebrating the end of semester finals. Every year on the last day of classes, a faculty member leads the graduates to Lippincott Hall, the former law building located north of Watson Library, carrying Jimmy Green's walking stick. When they arrive, everyone sits on the steps and a senior faculty member recites the University of Kansas' longstanding history and traditions. The group then adjourns to The Wheel. 14th and Ohio streets. The event triggers a series of others celebrating the end of a difficult three-year journey. Looking back, Anne Murray, Lawrence graduate, laughed as she recalled the first time she was "awake" in class and randomly called on for an answer. She was scared then but said she just answered with a "no idea." Today, she admits to being relaxed when wandering through Green Hall, east of the Burge Union. AT A GLANCE The School of Law has prided itself with tradition and excellence for more than 125 years. The School of Law heading ceremony will be held at 10 a.m. Saturday in the Lied Center. Murray had every reason to feel intimidated in the beginning. "It was the most challenging three years of my life," Misikir Tilahun, Lawrence graduate and president of the Student Bar Association, said. "The level of rigor you face is unlike any other." Mark Emert, Sabetha graduate, recalled professor Sward's nine-hour final his first semester as one of his most distinct memories. "I took a 10-minute break in the morning and 30 minute one in the afternoon and I was still cutting it close," he said. The hours the students have put into studying throughout these past three years have drawn to a close. One hundred and fifty-three students will walk across the stage Friday in the Lied Center for an intimate graduation ceremony. The graduates have not only developed strong relationships with each other but have lasting bonds with their professors and faculty as well. Students and faculty become a tight knit community because they see the same people in the same buildings ever day, he said. "The law school is like a small town in many ways," Stephen R. McAllister, dean of the school, said. These individuals, along with the graduates' families, help make graduation day special. McAllister separated Sunday's events into three distinct parts — the hoding, the reception, and walking down the hill. At the ceremony, a student-elected faculty member performs the hooding. No formal speaker will be present. McAllister will give a brief address, which will include what it means to be a lawyer and the importance of KU pride. Following tradition, four distinguished alumni will be presented. Their names are kept quiet, however, McAllister gave two clues. "Two are very well-known around here and the others have done amazing things for the school," McAllister said. "I can give my family and friends a tour of the law school." he said. Tilahun said his favorite part will be the reception and the opportunity to introduce family members to his mentors. Graduating from the school will be a monumental occasion in these students' lives. After two previous graduations, this third "holds more prestige," Emert said. "It's the finale, the end of an era."

My motivations: My father is an attorney, and I've always been in his office, working during breaks. I would enjoy the legal profession and I would like a juris doctor because it could open many doors, even if I choose not to practice law.

We'd work hard and play hard and most likely be on the brink of starting a family. I would love to be living a full life. Seniors CONTINUED FROM PAGE 20 For Simien, he rebounded and morphed into a likely lottery pick in the NBA draft. Langford and Miles also expect to follow suit, even though they aren't clear draft picks like Simien will be. Nevertheless, Simien said he had heard from a few NBA general managers that both should graduate to the NBA as well. "The last GM I talked to said he thought both of them would get drafted," Simien 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 p lay his way to a low first-round pick." Both Miles and Langford are excited at the prospect of following Simien into the NBA, but graduation is first thing for now. "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 and then take them one thing at a time." Other athletes will leave Kansas without a huge contract beckoning, but some will continue to pursue excellence in their sport anyway. Swimmer Amy Gruber finished an illustrious career in the pool that finished with several All-American and Big 12 honors, not to mention a qualifying time for the 2008 United States Olympic Trials. But some of her teammates will call it a career, and their postseason banquet marked their final as college athletes. Miranda Isaac was sent off with the Karen Dionne Award from her senior banquet to wrap up four years as an athlete representing Kansas. "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." - Miranda Lenning and Kelly Reynolds contributed to this report.

Lee converted the three-point play on his way to a career game with 18 points in the first round loss against Bucknell. Lee, along with many seniors, will likely pursue careers with their degrees, rather than play professionally. Simien, Langford, Miles likely to step into bigger shoes . BY STEVE VOCKRODT svrockrot@kansan.com KANSAN SENIOR STAFF WRITER Students will say goodbye to their college careers with a walk down the Campanilie on Sunday, but student-athletes at the University of Kansas live two lives, and some have already experience a graduation of their own. Along with the trip down the hill, student-athletes have bid farewell to college athletics with one last substitution off the court, one final climb out of the pool or one last step off the playing field. Very few athletes will graduate to professional careers in the sport they played at Kansas, more athletes will continue their sport recreationally as they pursue careers with their degree and yet others will walk away from their athletics lives at the same time they cross the bell tower atop the Campanilie, never to return. One group of athletes who will likely trade the bright lights, fanfare, television cameras and free scholarships of college athletics for the brighter lights, rabid fanfare, glare of television cameras and big bucks of professional sports are three of the four graduating seniors from the men's basketball team. Wayne Simien, Keith Langford and Aaron Miles are expected to all turn professional when the National Basketball Association holds its draft on June 28. And while they will cross the greener pastures of professional sports, the dynamic trio will be remembered as one of the finer classes of graduating seniors in Kansas basketball history. Despite never winning the national title many thought they would be christened with, they will look at their careers at Kansas positively. "I have no negative feelings about anything in my body," Langford said at the team's annual postseason banquet. Time will tell if this year's graduating class will emerge unscathed from the final moments they spent on the court as Kansas basketball players. Kansas lost its to an unheralded Bucknell team in the first round of the NCAA tournament, a surprising upset that soured many hopeful fans in Lawrence who were expecting a third consecutive berth to the Final Four on the shoulders of the four experienced seniors. But coach Bill Self said that he expected that in time, the seniors would be remembered as one of the better core of players to leave Kansas in the same year. "Regardless of how it ended, that won't take away who you are," Self said. "These guys are first-class and they will be remembered as first class." Simien also added that he would probably remember the brighter moments, like one of the first experiences he had on the team rather than his last. "I remember freshman year, me and Keith were roommates." Simien said. "We were late to our first pre-game meal. We never thought we were going to play again. "I guess we rebounded from that all right." BASEBALL SEE SENIORS ON PAGE 19 Tourney birth on the line BY MATT WILSON mwilson@kansan.com KANSAN SPORTWRITER COLUMBIA, Mo. — Kansas will face Oklahoma State in a three-game series in Lawrence starting Friday. Kansas is sitting in eight place in the conference, 1/2 game ahead of Texas A&M for the final tournament spot. The Aggies will close out their season with a series against Texas this weekend. The first game will be played in College Station, and the final two will take place in Austin. These critical games will determine whether the Kansas baseball team will enter the postseason after Kansas lost a critical Big 12 series, dropping two of three games to Missouri last weekend. Kansas sophomore Sean Land, a cousin of Scherzer, took the loss. He was the victim of a controversial call in the bottom of the fifth inning. With the score tied 0-0, Missouri had a runner on first with nobody out after a walk to junior center fielder James Boone. A wild pitch led to a dispute over whether the ball hit the batter. Missouri sophomore shortstop Gary Arndt. There was no immediate signal from home plate umpire Andy Eaves, and Kansas senior catcher Sean Richardson threw the runner out at second. After the out was called, Eaves declared that the batter was hit by the pitch, sending him to first and making the previous runner safe at second. the series Friday night, 8-0. Missouri sophomore pitcher Max Scherzer continued his impressive season, allowing just two base runners and striking out four in seven innings of work. He picked up the victory to improve to 8-2. Junior first baseman Jared Schweitzer's Kansas record 24-game hitting streak came to an end, and the Jayhawks (34-25, 9-14 Big 12) missed a golden opportunity to win their first road conference series since 2003. They did, however, break a 0-for-11 skid against the Tigers in Columbia that goes back to 1997. Kansas lost the first game of Kansas' players and coaches erupted in protest, and the umpires reversed the call and sent Arndt back to the plate. Curiously, they sent Boone back to first and resumed play. The strange occurrences clearly shook Land, and the Tigers went on to score four runs in the inning. Land pitched 5 2/3 innings and gave up five runs, only two of which were earned. His record fell to 5-5. Kansan file photo Kansas coach Rick Price lamented the lack of offensive production. "We thought if we worked the count we could get Scherzer out early," Price said. "We just couldn't get the clutch hit when we needed it." SCHWEIDER 8 KANSAS KANSAS Schweitzer went 0-for-2 with two walks to snap his school-best streak. It was the first game in which Schweitzer went hit-less since mid-March. torv was even better. Saturday's game was a different story. Kansas starter Mike Zagurski was outstanding in the Jayhawks' 9-3 victory. Zagurski threw a complete game for the second time this season. He allowed three runs while scattering eight hits. He struck out 12, which made him the third pitcher in KU history to record 100 or more strikeouts in a season. He is now 7-4 on the year. Zagurski said the strikeout milestone felt good, but the vic- "The bats did a great job," Zagurski said. "Their insurance runs late in the game allowed me to stay in the complete game." Kansas got on the board in the second inning. With two outs, Schweitzer doubled and freshman designated hitter John Allman singled to give the lavhawks a 1-10 lead. Junior first baseman Jared Schweitzer celebrates with junior center fielder Matt Baty and junior left fielder A.J. Van Slyke after scoring a run during the home series against then-No. 3 Texas. With the score tied 2-2 in the sixth inning, the Jayhawks busted out. Two runs in the seventh inning and two in the ninth gave the Jayhawks the winning margin. Junior shortstop Ritchie Price hit his second home run of the season in the seventh. Price earned his 100th victory at Kansas with the win. He was happy with the way the Jayhawks bounced back after the blowout loss Friday night. Sunday's game was destined to be a close one, as both teams' bullpins were well-rested. Kansas got off to a good start, scoring three# runs in the first two innings and chasing Missouri's starting pitcher, junior Doug Mathis, from the game. Senior designated hitter Andy Scholl homered to lead off the second inning. For Scholl, who has seen limited action lately, it was his fifth homer of the season. The Tigers tied the game in the third innning, taking full advantage of a defensive miscue by Kansas. The momentum remained with them until the end. The game remained tied until the bottom of the eighth inning. Quick stayed in despite his pitch count, which was well over 100 for the day. Quick gave up a single to lead off the inning and then was relieved by junior closer Don Czvz.

Gandhi once said, "Be the change you wish to see in the world," and although I may not make a difference on a grand scale. I still want to live my life by that ideal. In 10 years I see myself: somewhere in the mountains with a beautiful family, working in a job that allows me to interact with children. N. ALEXANDER KATHY MCVEY Sport: Softball Position: Pitcher My post-graduation plans are: Student-teaching at Spring Hill High School and to find a job in the Kansas City area to teach and coach softball and/or basketball. My motivations: I love working with children, especially when I can help them realize how fun learning can be. The processes of life are fascinating and I enjoy the overall experience of attending school. I love learning and I want to spread that enthusiasm to future generations. In 10 years I see myself: Married to my current boyfriend of four years and raising a couple of children. I will be active in the community as much as I can, volunteering for good causes whenever I get the opportunity.

Giddens talks with members of the media in the Jayhawk locker room after a disappointing loss last season. LIZ NARTOWICZ inartowicz@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER Junior forward J.R. Giddens will miss the first term of summer school because he is recovering, at his home in Oklahoma City, from a sliced artery in his right calf, the Lawrence Journal-World reported. Giddens received the cut during a fight in the parking lot of the Moon Bar, 821 Iowa St., early in the morning of May 19, according to Lawrence police. The police are conducting an investigation to determine the cause and the instigator of the fight, and have no comment at this time, said Sgt. Dan Ward. Lawrence Police Department. Giddens, Creswell and the rest of the men were at the Moon Bar to celebrate the birthday of its owner, Ron Ruiz. Ruiz had no comment on the incident. Bill Self, men's head basketball coach, has said that no decision on whether Giddens will remain on the team has been reached, but that he will be the one making the decision. Self is waiting for the police to conclude their investigation. Self could not be reached for comment yesterday because he attended a charity golf tournament. If Giddens remains on the team, he will be required to follow strict rules of behavior. Self has said. Giddens was one of the six persons injured during the fight. He was allegedly cut by Jeremiah Creswell with a four-inch folding knife. Witnesses said Giddens, along with ten other men, attacked Creswell after the bar had closed. Witnesses have identified two of these men as C.J. Giles, sophomore center, and former KU basketball player Bryant Nash. Giles denied any involvement in the fight, but Nash admitted to punching Creswell in the face, the Lawrence Journal-World reported. "We will have rules and things we'll continue to go over, which will not be privy to the public," Self said to the Lawrence Journal-World yesterday. Nicholas Flores, witnessed events inside and outside the bar and said the group approached Creswell first. Flores said Creswell was waiting outside the bar for his ride when Giddens moved toward him yelling "You got a problem?" and "Do you know who I am?" Both Flores and Creswell said Giddens threw the first punch. Shortly after, five men joined in, throwing bottles, bricks, objects and fists. After being struck with an ashtray, Creswell fell to his knees where he allegedly withdrew his folding knife and started flailing. Creswell allegedly said to Jason Whitlock that he was unaware of who he was stabbing. "It was self-defense," Flores said to The Kansas Star last week.

The sign prompted a scuffle that ended with Wymore being taken to jail, the men said. University of Missouri officials cleared university police chief Jack Watring from assault allegations after a three-month investigation that ended May 27. Watring was under investigation for using improper force at a Missouri-Kansas men's basketball game on March 6. Watring had approached Chris Kaufman, 2005 Kansas graduate, about a 3-by-6-foot banner that said Mizzou Arena was the Allen Fieldhouse of the east. During the confrontation Watring allegedly grabbed Kaufman by the back of his shirt. Kaufman later filed an assault complaint against Watring. Kaufman, along with his three friends and fellow KU fans, received permission from an usher to hang the banner along a nearby railing. The banner hung for 15 minutes before Watring started to take the sign down. In his complaint, Kaufman wrote that when he tried to retrieve the sign from Watring, Watring grabbed him by the collar. Kaufman said Watring was on a power trip. "It was totally unnecessary," Kaufman said. Lisa Wimmenauer, associate director of business services at the University of Missouri, led the investigation along with two independent officers. During the investigation, Wimmenauer traveled to Lawrence for individual interviews with the involved KU students, alumni and fans. Kaufman said he felt his side of the story was heard but that key witnesses were ignored. An MU fan who witnessed the argument was never interviewed, Kaufman said. "Something doesn't add up," Kaufman said. "We don't feel their fair investigation was so fair." Investigaters found Watring's actions reasonable considering the animated atmosphere between the rival schools. Jones said Watring acted within his bounds throughout the incident, and that safety for all fans was his motive for removing the banner. "It could be reasonably predicted that the banner could have become a focal point for unruly behavior," Jackie Jones, vice chancellor of administrative services at MU, wrote in the investigation's closing statement. "The action in this incident was based upon my knowledge of past problems at similar athletic events at Mizzou," Watring said in his statement. "These events often become highly charged and can become violent." Watring said although he followed all policies accurately, he regretted any misunderstandings that may have resulted from the incident. Watring, who remained active throughout the investigation, will continue working for the MU police department. No clear policy concerning banners and signs at Mizzou Arena is in place. Christian Basi, assistant director of MU news service, said the University of Missouri was in the process of developing a policy and expected to have one finalized by the start of the 2005-06 basketball season. Related training for event staff to avoid further incidents is also expected. Kaufman will be in Columbia, Mo., today to support his friend Andrew Wymore, 2004 alumnus, who faces trespassing charges. Wymore was arrested for trespassing at the game when he tried to re-enter the arena after Maj. Doug Schwandt revoked his ticket. Kaufman plans to speak with attorneys about further actions he can take against Watring while in Columbia. — Edited by Erin M.

"He was always smiling," Wendy Wells said. Lyndon "Lyndy" Hubbell Wells, 20, died Friday, May 20 at the University of Kansas Medical Center in Kansas City, Kan. Wells, who was a Chesterfield, Mo., sophomore, suffered from Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome and was undergoing surgery for the illness at the center. He died from complications following the surgery. Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome is a vascular illness that lowers the collagen levels in tissues and complicates a body's natural healing process. Wells was diagnosed with the illness at 14 years of age when his physician first noticed a heart murmur. The heart murmur, caused by an aortic aneurysm, led to a biopsy that detected the illness. His mother said she was surprised he died so young because the average life expectancy for M. LAMBERT people with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome rangesbetween 40 and 60 years of age. Andrew Martin Wells, Lydon's twin brother who died at 3 weeks old was also Wells diagnosed with the illness. Born into a legacy of Jayhawks on Aug. 16, 1984, Wells realized he wanted to be a Jayhawk when he was 6 years old. He was a third-generation Jayhawk. Both of his parents and his paternal grandparents attended the University. Lyndon even decorated his childhood room with KU wallpaper. He sought a degree in education and wanted to become a high school history teacher after graduation. A 2003 graduate of Parkway Central High School in Chesterfield, Mo., a suburb outside of St. Louis, Wells spent much of his free time working on his 1992 Honda "No catastrophe held him back," said Jonathan Kealing, high school classmate and Kansan spring associate sports editor."He didn't let anything stop him." Kealing said Wells always had health problems, but managed to keep a positive outlook. Described by friends and family as hilarious, laid back and always smiling, Wells was an active member of Delta Sigma Phi fraternity. He enjoyed camping, paintball, cars and golfing with his father, His father moved to Lawrence about a year and a half ago in case of emergency. "Lyndy went out the way he came in," Gordon Wells, Lyndon's father, said. "Quietly and with dignity." Additional survivors include a sister, Molly Wells, Denver; paternal grandmother, Mary Wells, Wichita; maternal grandparents Donald and Shirley Martin, Peoria, Ariz.; and a large extended family. He would have served as the best man in his sister's wedding on July 23. Services for Wells were held Monday, May 23 at Danforth Chapel on the KU campus.

It will include interactive displays, trophy cases and pictures celebrating the traditions of athletics at the University. Construction crews will continue to work throughout the summer on the new Booth Family Hall of Athletics, which will be added onto the east side of the Fieldhouse. The ground-breaking ceremony was May 21, and construction began the next week, Jim Marchiony, associate athletics director, said. He expects completion before basketball season begins in November, but the opening date has not yet been set. "We wanted someplace where we could celebrate KU athletics." Marchiony said. The cost for the new hall would be between $6 and $8 million, with the Booth family donating more than $4 million, Marchiony said. The donors grew up off of Naismith Drive, but have since moved away. They made the donation in honor of their parents. "The concept is something Lew has talked about since he arrived at KU." Marchiony said. The idea for the new hall came from Lew Perkins, athletics director. After the idea took shape, the Athletics Department shared its idea with possible donors, Marchiony said. The Booth family also contributed ideas to the structure. Architects and designers bid for the job, which was ultimately given to HOK Construction. The Athletics Department was happy with the design firm, Marchiony said, which renovated the Jacksonville stadium for Super Bowl XXXIX. The addition will be made from the same materials as the fieldhouse, which turned 50 this past year Marchiony said. The only possible change to the exterior grounds may be the position of the Phog Allen statue Marchiony said. "It may have to be moved," Marchiony said. "But it will be a prominent part of the Hall of Athletics." During and after construction the Athletics Department will sell commemorative pavers, Marchiony said. The pavers will be bricks that customers can purchase and have inscribed with whatever message they would like and that will fit. The pavers will come in two sizes; the smaller size is a six-inch square that will cost $350, and the bigger size is a one-foot square that will cost $600.Not everyone is as pleased with the addition as Marchiony. "I think it's corporate, it's about more ways to make money," Matt Moreno, Wichita junior, said. - Edited by Erin M.

Contributed photo Dennis Sander looks over his site model of the Le Mans Auto Sport Racing Museum. Sander designed the museum after the curving lines of the race track. J BY ERIN M. DROSTE edroste@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER Erin Droste/KANSAN Le Mans officials have approved the design of the new Le Mans Museum of Auto Sport Racing. After years of researching and designing, Dennis Sanders museum is $200 million away from becoming a reality. Sander, associate professor of architecture and urban design has been working on the design of a new Le Mans museum since December of 2002. Sander traveled to Le Mans, France in 2004 and pitched his idea to the Le Mans committee. He said it immediately approved of his idea. "I very seldom have had the hairs stand up on the back of my neck," Sander said. "That did it." Sophie Delahaye, instructor in French and Italian, served as interpreter for Sander at the presentation in Le Mans. She said although there were a few questions about the design of the building and its costs, the committee was pleased with the design. "Everyone was pleased and surprised that the project was so far along," Delahaye said. "Everyone thought it was awesome." Sander said the total cost of the museum would reach $200 million. He is working with the Automobile Club de L'Ouest (ACO) to raise the funds. Sander said he hoped to get donations not only from the big names in auto racing, manufacturing and supplies, but from everyone involved with the race. "This museum will be a gift from the entire automotive industry that has gained so much from this race," Sander said. The new museum will be dedicated to what Sander called the most glorious of all motor sport races: the 24-hour Le Mans. The race attracts almost 400,000 people, including 30,000 to 40,000 Americans each year and is the original 24-hour auto race. Sander said. The museum will house 160 to 200 historic and contemporary race cars popular to the Le Mans, including Bentleys, Audis and Mercedes. In addition to cars, Sander's 500,000-square-foot design includes two IMAX theaters and eight smaller theaters, which can accommodate a total of 6.400 visitors. Sander said his piece de resistance was the in-car experience. Twenty individual rooms will have an actual race car that visitors will be able to drive through Delahaye said the museum would be a great place for families to visit, not only during race week, but all year long. "It's a great concept and a wonderful project. It's extremely original," Delahaye said. "It will be a wonderful landmark." The original idea for the museum developed from assignments Sander gave to his studio design students. During the last few years Sander has spent his own time and money to research and develop his design and has amassed 14 notebooks full of his research. a virtual race. WE "I personally have logged approximately 2,200 hours, (or about 90 full Le Mans races) in the research and design of the museum," Sander said in a written statement. Sander is currently planning a trip to the Bentley Motors Headquarters in Crewe, England, to raise funds for the museum. He said it would take at least seven to nine years to complete the project. WEDNESDAY, JUNE 8, 2005 NEWS THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN 7 CONSTRUCTION 14th opens; repairs continue BY ADAM LAND aland@ku.edu KANSAN STAFF WRITER Months and months of orange cones and frustration are now close to completion with the reopening of 14th Street last week. With construction nearly finished, tenants on the street are happy to have the construction completed, but many of the students most affected were scholarship hall residents and residents living off of 14th Street. These students did not even get to use the open street, but had to deal with the construction nearly all semester. "It was almost as if they closed the street when I moved in, and opened it when I moved out," said Greg Summers, 2005 Topeka graduate and former Kinney Coach apartments resident, 1430 Louisiana St. "It irritates me more to know they opened it after I moved out." Summers' statement may not be that far off considering the street has been blocked off for more than a year for one set of repairs or another. Last summer, it was closed for repairs to steam tunnels that ran under the street. The street has been under construction for these repairs for more than four months and still is not done, Mark Reiske, associate director of Design and Construction Management at the University of Kansas, said. But the street should not suffer any further closings while crews work to finish the project before the fall semester begins. Construction crews did not administer any repairs to the street itself. The purpose of this round of repairs is to fix drainage and communication issues in the scholarship halls, Andrea Albright, spokeswoman for University Relations, said. Stormwater drains to Douthart Scholarship Hall, 1345 Louisiana St., and KK Amini Scholarship Hall, 1318 Louisiana St. needed to be redone, Albright said. Although the water drains were an issue, the most time-consuming part of the process was digging trenches to the scholarship halls. The trenches, which are the most important part of the construction, are for communication wire, carrying internet and telephone cables, Albright said. "KU really dropped the ball on this one," Summers said. "It seemed it was closed much longer than it should have been." Albright said Design and Construction Management, the University department heading the project, plans to continue laying communication wire until it reaches Ohio Street. —Edited by Erin M. Droste TRANSPORTATION Road work to continue, but not hinder ROAD CONSTRUCTION AHEAD BY ADAM LAND aland@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER Every summer the University of Kansas repairs and repaves roads and parking lots throughout campus. It's the easiest time because fewer students take classes and less traffic populates campus streets. Kit Leffler/KANSAN Construction crews have been busy throughout campus since the end of the spring semester. Crews will continue to repair campus roads throughout the summer. Joel Garcia, Liberal senior, agrees with the notion that summer is better a time to repair the streets. "I know there was construction but it doesn't really seem that bad," Garcia said. The only construction that bothered him was the repairs being made during the past year to 14th Street. The largest summer repair that Facilities Operations and Design and Construction Management, the two departments that handle road repair, corrected was Naismith Drive. Facilities Operations, generally works more with road repair. The department repaves, rebuilds and patches the roads year round. During the summer many of the larger projects are bid out to contractors. The Naismith job, as well as other jobs, are bid out to contractors who can do it faster or have the necessary machinery, said Mike Lang, director of construction and landscaping for Facilities and Operations. "We don't have enough people to do it fast," Lang said. "We don't have a lay-down machine. Facilities Operations does some of the curb work and other parts of construction process. Crews began repaving the street Design and Construction Management also plans on doing more road repair. DCM deals more with planning and parking lot repair. about two weeks ago, said Mark Reiske, associate director of design and construction management. The crews repaved the streets and built new curbs from 19th Street to Jayhawk Boulevard. Speed was important, because Facilities and Operations wanted the Naismith project done after commencement but before the summer term, Lang said. "That was really the largest renovation of the summer," Reiske said. Facilities and Operations plans on some patching on Jayhawk Drive, repaving Westbrook Road on west campus and repaving the road behind the Spencer Museum, Lang said. Both Linley Hall parking lots are slated for repair this summer, Reiske said, because Design and Construction Management plans on "tearing down" the Linley annex. The new space will be turned into parking spaces, Reiske said. One lot is behind Linley Hall and the other is west of the Art and Design Building. The University's two repair departments will work throughout the summer with only minimal delays, Lang said. "Hopefully, we are done with road delays this summer," he said.

Then came middle school and as we began getting more specific and difficult with what we were learning, the games became more vivid and interactive as the consoles grew again into the Sony Playstation, Nintendo 64, and Sega CD. Into high school and into college, we matured and began taking the steps we would need to attain the ultimate life goals we envisioned for ourselves. At the same time, the Playstation 2, Nintendo Gamecube, and Microsoft X-Box showed the world what games were capable of, and built the foundations of what they would become. Even as many of us hit puberty, the games seemed to notice. This is when controllers began to vibrate. Now, as many of us are getting closer to graduation and the real world,the video games are reaching a point where they are poised to become the dominant form of entertainment and break out into the real market. A new generation of seriously powerful video game consoles is about to hit the market,and they are going to hit it hard. According to Doug Lowenstein, president of the Electronic Software Association, the video game industry will surpass the music industry as the No. 2 form of entertainment, earning a projected $58 billion a year by 2008. At the 11th annual Electronic Entertainer Expo., a video game symposium, he said games are more and more developing a mass market appeal, getting licenses from movies, TV shows, and books. The newest step in this development of gaming will be arriving soon, a generation of gaming consoles that demonstrates the undeniable power they can wield. This May, at the symposium, The Microsoft X-BOX 360, Sony Playstation 3, and Nintendo Revolution were unveiled. The "Revolution" is the successor to the longest running line of consoles, the Nintendo. While the system itself hasn't been finished and there hasn't been any software officially announced, the capabilities of the machine have been hinted at by Nintendo officials. The biggest new feature of the Revolution is its internet connectivity. The wireless card being built into the system will allow users to interact between two consoles face-toface or over their wireless gaming service, the Nintendo WiFi Connection. Nintendo Revolution Wii Satoru Iwata, Nintendo president, said in a press release that Nintendo "will show the world what a next-gen system can be." With this new level of connectivity, gamers will be able to learn a whole new meaning to the phrase "backwards compatible," meaing the Revolution will be able to download the best games released over the past 20 years of Nintendo consoles. The Revolution runs off a chip code named "Broadway" and a graphics card known as "Hollywood." It also comes with 512 megabytes of internal flash memory and an SD memory card slot, which will be used by owners to store games in the console. The projected release date of the Revolution is sometime in 2006, putting it behind Microsoft's 360. As of now, no games have been announced but Nintendo has hinted at new Metroid, Tony Hawk, and Smash Bros. titles among the first run of games for the new system. — Edited By Adam Land PS5 "Each generation of PlayStat dramatic improvement in how videogames.

He was arrested for allegedly throwing a telephone at a hotel employee. Crowe, 41, plays a boxer in his latest movie Cinderella Man. Time for 'Seventeen Candles'? Could it be time to put more candles on the cake? Molly Ringwald said she's in discussions to make a sequel to "Sixteen Candles," the 1984 movie about the obstacles and embarrassments a teen girl faces on her birthday. The John Hughes film shot Ringwald to teen stardom but she has not appeared in a major role in many years. She said she's been appearing in theater, small TV and film parts and raising a daughter, now 1 1/2. Ringwald, 37, said she had been approached repeatedly about doing a sequel but recently read a script that she liked and wanted to star in the movie. "I've turned it down for years. I couldn't see how it would work," she said Saturday. "Now, it seems right." Ringwald was reunited Saturday at the MTV Movie Awards with three fellow "The Breakfast Club" cast members. Appearing on stage with her were Anthony Michael Hall, Ally Sheedy and Paul Gleason, who played the principal in the 1985 Hughes movie about high school detention. Judd Nelson and Emilio Estevez didn't show, and Hall joked, "They're in Africa with Dave Chappelle." The Associated Press Kelly follows Osbourne family footsteps into rehab LOS ANGELES - Kelly Osbourne, the 20-year-old daughter of heavy metal star Ozzy Osbourne, has checked herself into a drug treatment center, according to a published report. Osbourne entered the Pasadena facility on Thursday, Us Weekly reported Friday. A message left for her mother, Sharon Osbourne, was not immediately returned. A family representative told the magazine that Kelly Osbourne was "dealing with some personal issues" and would be back in a few weeks. Kelly Osbourne spent several weeks last year at a Malibu drug treatment center for an addiction to prescription pain killers. Her brother, Jack Osbourne, checked himself into a drug and alcohol rehabilitation clinic in 2003 and Ozzy Osbourne has been candid about his decades of battles with substance abuse. The siblings became international stars following the success of the MTV reality show "The Osbournes" which showed an oft-dazed Ozzy doting over his family with Sharon.

Two weeks ago, Newsweek published a now-retracted report that U.S. interrogators at the detention center had flushed a Quran down a toilet. Saying America's image abroad had suffered irreparable damage, the White House launched a verbal offensive against the media. On Saturday, a day after the Pentagon described a series of cases of U.S. personnel mishandling the Quran, the White House downplayed the issue. The Associated Press NATION Medical use of marijuana outlawed WASHINGTON - People who smoke marijuana to ease pain can be prosecuted for violating federal drug laws, the Supreme Court ruled Monday.

Justice John Paul Stevens an 85-year-old cancer survivor. said the court was not passing judgment on the potential medical benefits of marijana, but that the Constitution allowed its federal regulation as interstate commerce. The Associated Press Deep Throat unmasked WASHINGTON — Watergate whistleblower "Deep Throat" helped bring down a president and inspire a famous political mystery. Thirty years later, the secret is out. After decades of hiding his role asThe Washington Post's tipster, former FBI No.2 official W.Mark Felt told his secret to a lawyer his family had consulted. "I'm the guy they used to call Deep Throat," Vanity Fair quoted Felt as saying. Former Post editor Ben Bradlee said, "It's the last secret" of the story. Felt's grandson, Nick Jones, said the family believed Felt was a great American hero. The Associated Press STATE Sebelius to call session on funding TOPEKA — Gov. Kathleen Sebelius has promised to call a special legislative session because of a Kansas Supreme Court decision on education funding, but she is planning to consult with leaders in both parties before setting a date. Sebelius was to meet with legislative leaders Monday afternoon.The court on Friday ordered legislators to double the amount of additional money appropriated for schools for the next school year, and set a deadline of July 1. The court rejected an education funding plan pushed through the Legislature by Republicans, providing a $142 million increase. The court said spending must increase by $285 million, or about 10 percent, to more than $3 billion annually. The decision will force legislators to consider raising taxes, expanding gambling, cutting government programs, or some combination of those alternatives. Sebelius has advocated both higher taxes and new gambling.

Battle qualified for three events at the NCAA Championships which begin today. NCAA hopefuls Twelve athletes make the grade for championships BY ASHLEY MICHAELS amichaels@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER Twelve members of the University of Kansas track and field team compete this week at the NCAA Championships in Sacramento, Calif. The tournament begins Wednesday and continues through Saturday. Of the 12 athletes in Sacramento this week, seven are from the women's team and five are from the men's team. The teams competed in the 2005 Midwest Regional Track and Field Tournament, May 26-28 in Norman, Okla. Athletes who placed in the top five in their events automatically qualified for the NCAA Championships. In the Regional Tournament, the men's team finished third and the women's team placed sixth overall. "Regionalis went really well," senior middle distance runner Jeremy Mims said. "We had a lot of fun and there were a lot of people who had big performances." Mims placed second in the 800-meter and junior thrower Sheldon Battle, won the shot put and discus and placed fourth in the hammer throw. Freshman horizontal jumper/sprinter Crystal Manning placed third in the NCAA CHAMPIONSHIP COMPETITORS ♦ Sheldon Battle, junior (shot put, discus and hammer throw) Gavin Ball, sophomore (discus) Benson Chesang, junior (5,000 meter run) Jeremy Mims, senior (800 meter) - Jen Widerstrom, senior (hammer throw) Julius Jiles, freshman (110 meter hurdles) Amy Linnen, senior (pole vault) ♦ Ekaterina Sultanova, freshman (pole vault) Brooklyn Hann, senior (triple jump) ♦ Crystal Manning, freshman (triple jump) triple jump. Senior horizontal jumper/spinter Brooklyn Hann placed second in the triple jump. Mims will compete in the 800-meter, making this his second appearance at the NCAA Championships in the same city. He qualified his sophomore year, and said he wasn't pleased with his performance. "My first time at the NCAA's, I was just happy to be there, I wasn't really concerned with how I performed," Mims said. "I got beat by everyone. This time I'm in the same situation except now I know exactly what it takes to win." For Mims, it is simply going into the tournament with a different mind set, the mind set that this time he is going with a purpose. "I won't be satisfied with just making it, I want to compete and win." Mims said. While Mims prepares for sweet revenge, some of his teammates, like senior thrower Jen Widerstrom, are going to the NCAA Championships for the first time. "I am a little anxious but I am ready to get going." Widerstrom said. "I still need to train a little more before I go, but I'll be ready." Last year Widerstrom didn't make it past Regionals. This year is her opportunity to prove that she belongs at the NCAA Championships. Changes for the better are occurring in the track and field program at the University, but head coach Stanley Redwine doesn't take credit for the team's recent success. Last season the men's track and field team placed twelfth in the Big 12. This year it ended up in fourth place. "The athletes want it more," Redwine said. "The coaches emphasize doing well every time they go out there, but the credit goes to the athletes for pushing themselves harder and wanting it more." — Edited by Erin M. Droste VIEW FROM PRESS ROW KELLIS ROBINETT krobinett@kansan.com Athletics Department takes a stab Lew Perkins is going to need an awfully big steak to remove the black eye that now looms large on the face of the University of Kansas Athletics Department. Local authorities still haven't finished their investigation of the infamous Moon Bar fight, but it doesn't really matter what the police report says. Sure, J.R. Giddens may avoid criminal charges for his role in the brawl, and stay on the basketball team, but not even the best public relations spin will make him look like an innocent bystander. Nor will it cover up the fact that Giddens' poor decision making means that players on three of the University's major sports teams were involved in a criminal altercation of some kind over the past year. But not even the best public relations spin will make Giddens look like an innocent bystander. First, the Jayhawk baseball team made the news when pitcher Scott Sharpe faced battery charges after a fight in early March. The football team followed suit when former running back John Randle was arrested for using the Granada as a toilet and punching a man in the face. That, of course, was his fourth arrest in an 18-month span. Then the men's basketball team threw its hat in the crime ring when Giddens, along with C.J. Giles and Bryant Nash, took part in a melee outside the Moon Bar, which left Giddens with a severed artery in his calf. The first two incidents did little to hurt the University's image. The Sharpe story disappeared in a few days, and Randle was labeled as the bad apple in an otherwise good bunch. But Giddens being stabbed,coupled with slow summer sports news and the national exposure that comes with the Kansas basketball team,has created one ugly mess. Even if it turns out that Giddens was the victim in the melee, this story won't be going away soon.

"I will miss the fans the most, the atmosphere, having the chance to put the uniform on and the fans appreciate me," Niang said. "As an athlete, you might have to decide whether play- "Everything else I'll be around for. I'll be in the locker room with the guys hanging out, cracking jokes and I'll be on the road with them. I will not be missing out on much, I'll be around." - Edited by Erin M. Droste GAS SOFTBALL Season ends after invitation to NCAA tournament BY ASHLEY MICHAELS amichaels@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER Jeff Jacobson/KUAC Jessica Moppin hit a two-run home run in the top of the sixth inning against Georgia Tech on May 20. The home run, which bounced off the scoreboard, made Moppin the new Kansas career home run leader. Kansas softball wrapped up its season with a 31-24 record and an NCAA regional tournament invitation, its first since 1999. The Jayhawks started the season with the No. 3 defense in the Big 12. They ended preconference play with a 15-9 record and opened conference play against No. 4 Texas, but lost 4-1. The season was one of ups and downs, despite an eight-game winning streak that Missouri halted in the Border Showdown. "Our offense was great for the majority of the season," junior outfielder Heather Stanley said. "Our pitchers struggled and we lost some games early on, but when our pitching came around we started doing better. We were winning games we shouldn't have won and losing games we shouldn't have lost." The season left the Jayhawks with accomplishments to be proud of. "One of the best things about this season was sweeping Oklahoma when they came to Lawrence," Stanley said. "They were No. 5 at the time and it was a great accomplishment for us." Five Jayhawks earned All-Big 12 honors. Junior infielder Destiny Frankenstein and Stanley were named first team All-Big 12, while junior infielder Jessica Moppin, junior outfielder Ashley Frazer, and junior pitcher Serena Settlemier all earned second team honors. Moppin and Frankenstein were also named Big 12 Players of the Week during the season. Moppin broke the University's all-time home run record with 24 home runs in her career and her 10th of the season. "I got my 24th home run at my last to-bat in the last game," Moppin said. "I just told myself that I wasn't going to leave the tournament without a hit. It is a great honor beating a record that so many great players before me have held." The Big 12 Tournament produced two losses for the Jayhawks. Kansas was defeated by No. 3 Texas, 1-0, and No. 2 Oklahoma. 5-0. Despite their lack of success in the Big 12 Tournament, the Jayhawks got an invitation to the NCAA Regional Tournament in Athens, Ga. It was the first invite for all the current players on the team. In the first round Kansas matched up against the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets and lost 3-1 in nine innings. Next they faced Tennessee Tech and won 4-0, which led them into one more match-up with the Yellow Jackets, where they lost 5-2. With experience under their belts from last season and all but three players returning from last year, the Jayhawks have high hopes for next season. They are only graduating one senior, pitcher Kathy McVey. "Our goal for next year is to get to the same place we went this year and then get farther in the tournament," Moppin said. "We almost beat Texas and Arizona and both of them are in the World Series right now. We are close to where we need to be." — Edited by Erin M. Droste WEDNESDAY, JUNE 8, 2005 SPORTS THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN 15 BASEBALL KU Jeff Jacobsen/KUAC Junior infielder Ritchie Price dives back safely to first base on a Baylor pick off attempt. Kansas lost to No. 13 Baylor in extra innings 2-1 on May 25. The next day Kansas lost to No. 3 Texas 9-0. The Big 12 Tournament marked the end of the Jayhawks' postseason as they were not invited to compete in the NCAA Tournament. Team achieves third most winning season BY ASHLEY MICHAELS amichaels@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER The University of Kansas baseball team ended the 2004-2005 season with a 36-28 record and succeeded in being the second team in the University's baseball history to make it to the Big 12 Tournament since joining the Big 12 Conference. Although its season was cut short when an NCAA Tournament invite did not come through, the KU baseball team has nothing to be ashamed of. Its 36 victories makes it the third most winning baseball team in school history. Three Jayhawks, senior catcher Sean Richardson, junior shortstop Ritchie Price and junior outfielder Matt Baty, were selected to the Big12Baseball.com Preseason All-Big 12 team. Junior outfielder Matt Baty, junior outfielder A.J. Van Slyke, junior outfielder Gus Milner, and junior pitcher Don Czyz were all awarded Big 12 Player of the Week honors during the season. Slyke was honored twice this year. "It was a great honor being chosen as Big 12 Player of the Week," Baty said. "I was playing well at the time. For that many people to be honored, that is fairly new for our program." The season started out well for Kansas. They headed to Hawaii and swept Hawaii-Hilo, starting the season with a 7-0 record for the first time since 2002. Coming off a great start in Hawaii, the team headed to Palo Alto, Calif., to face No. 6 Stanford, losing the series 3-0. "We started out really well in the beginning of the season going to Hawaii and heading to Stanford with a 7-0 record, which was a first for me since I have been at KU," Baty said. "When we played Stanford we got a wake-up call and realized we weren't quite ready for conference play and we struggled." Texas, but lost the Border Showdown against No. 20 Missouri. It ended conference play 11-14, with a victory against Oklahoma State University to ensure it a spot in the Big 12 Tournament. "We struggled, won the games we should have won and then the last month we were playing the best ball of the season." Batv said. Going into the tournament, the Jayhawks were on fire, having won three of their last four conference series. The team made it to the Phillips 66 Big 12 Tournament, May 25-29 in Oklahoma City. Seeded No. 7, their first opponent was No. 2 Baylor. The Jayhawks lost to the Bears 2-1. "We were probably the hottest team in the Big 12 heading into the tournament," Baty said. "But baseball is a weird game, one more catch here or one more out there and we could have won that game against Baylor." Ten members of the KU baseball team earned All-Big 12 honors. Van Slyke became the second Jayhawk to be named first team All-Big 12. Next they matched up against No. 3 Texas and lost 9-0. Earlier in the season they won the series against Texas, but failed to defeat them in the tournament. Playing a ranked team on national television and winning was the highlight of the season for the Jayhawks, Baty said. The two losses in the tournament brought the Jayhawks' all-time record in the Big 12 tournament to 0-4. Kansas won the series against No.2 —Edited by Erin M. Droste Baty said he is looking forward to next season but the loss of 12 seniors would also bring a loss of leadership. "It will hurt us a lot if we lose Milner or Quick to the draft," Baty said. "But we have good arms coming in and good arms coming back, so we are looking forward to it." Can you enjoy the summer & earn KU credits? T I YES! Through KU Independent Study.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The good news came to Alex Gordon via sign language. That meant Alex had been drafted No. 2 overall and he was the property of the same Kansas City team his family of baseball fans had always followed. "I'm definitely excited and definitely looking forward to playing for them,"said the smooth-swinging third baseman The Royals claimed Gordon with their highest pick ever, just a moment after Arizona made high school shortstop Justin Upton the overall No. 1 selection. "He's the guy we wanted," said Deric Ladnier, the Royals' director of scouting. Gordon is hitting .382 with 18 home runs and 62 RBIs for the Huskers. He also has 58 walks and has stolen 23 bases in 26 attempts. "We feel like he's an impact bat for us," Ladnier said.

Alex Gordon, 3B, 6-1, 215, Nebraska The 6-foot-1,215-pounder said he wants to get started as soon as he can. A contract and bonus package could be in the $4 million to $5 million range. 2. Jeffrey Bianchi, SS, 6-0, 175, Lampeter-Strasburg HS, Pa.

The 5-11, 180-pounder also has signed a letter of intent with North Carolina State. Kellis CONTINUED FROM PAGE 13 This isn't equivalent to Paul Pierce, NBA All-Star and former Kansas basketball stud, being stabbed in the back multiple times at a Boston bar and turning into a local hero after his recovery. Opposing fans already taunt Giddens with Wal-Mart sacks. One can only imagine what next year's trip to Missouri will look like. It's a shame too, because this all could have been avoided with some stricter rules from the coaching staff. How these athletes were allowed to be bar-hopping past two in the morning on a Wednesday night, where something like this could happen, escapes me. I understand that controlling over a dozen college students is a difficult task, but shouldn't players representing the University's proudest athletic program at least be barred from bars until they are of legal drinking age? Maybe alcohol wasn't the primary cause of this incident. We might never know. But when the facts finally come out I hope Perkins sends all his coaches the message that this type of behavior can't continue. Otherwise we might see him in Amarillo, Texas, buying a 72 ounce steak at the Big Texan Restaurant. If the black eye gets any bigger, that may be the only piece of meat that can help.
