Currently, tobacco products are allowed outside the buildings on the shared campus. The policy was put into effect after numerous studies proved tobacco is the leading cause of death from disease for both those who smoke and those who are exposed to second-hand smoke, Barbara Atkinson, MD, executive vice chancellor of the University of Kansas Medical Center said in a press release. "For many years, we have discussed the inconsistency of advocating a healthy lifestyle while continuing to allow the use of tobacco products on campus", Atkinson said. The tobacco-free policy will also apply to KU MedWest in Shawnee and the new Westwood Center of the hospital. Kansan staff reports Vice Provost to step down to teach full-time Sandra W.

DAVIS III fdavis@kansan.com KANSAN SENIOR STAFF WRITER Call it a pseudo extreme makeover Wescoe Hall Edition. The flagship building for the Humanities department and oft-referred "ugliest building" on campus is getting a $3.5 million addition to its south side to increase office space to its already cramped quarters. Funding for the project comes from a combination of money set aside specifically for building renovations and money accrued from unused campus program savings, it will be the first substantial addition to Wesco in the building's 33-year history. "After years of squeezing and squeezing this will give people more breathing room," said Paul D'Anieri, associate dean of College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. The addition will bring 20,000 sq. ft. to the patio area above the Underground. The reality of adding the extra space to Wescoe evolved after school officials realized it would cost about $75,000 to seal that area, thus it was decided to move forward and try to convert the area into much-needed office space. "We were hiring people and literally had nowhere to put them," D'Anieri said about the space crunch. Don Steeples, vice provost for scholarly support, who also oversees the office of space management, said that the deciding factor to transform the space was the ability to construct two floors out of the porch area. The Spanish & Portuguese and History departments will inhabit the 70 to 80 new offices created by the addition. Construction is expected to begin on the project June 19, and is expected to be finish by March of 2007. is expected to be in their schools Steeples said he expects the departments to move into their new spaces during spring break of 2007 and be fully functioning when school reconvenes after the break. school recoveries after the break Steeples said that the "Wesco Infill" as the project is referred, will bring a slightly different look compared to the rest of the building, most notably the windows. building, most likely "We're trying to get away from the prison window look," Steeples said, referring to Wescoe's slim-shaped windows that appear eerily similar to prison windows. FOOTBALL early similar to press "Ten years from now, someone looking at the southwest corner of the Wescoe will probably be able to say, 'Yeah, that's probably an infill,'" Steeples said. Big 12 not adding additional conference game for 2006 By JACK WEINSTEIN jweinstein@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER The Big 12 conference will not add a ninth conference football game to its schedule, as proposed at the Big 12 coaches and athletic director's spring meeting on May 23, in Colorado Springs. If it had, the conference would have eliminated one non-conference game to make up for the additional conference game beginning in 2008. According to an e-mail from Big 12 Conference Associate Commissioner Bob Burda, the prospect of adding another conference game to the schedule is officially off the table. The Big 12 football coaches and athletics directors decided not to bring it to a vote when they convened at the spring meeting. "The Conference will move forward with future schedules consisting of eight games through 2011, or possibly 2015," Burda wrote. Originally, it was thought that the Big 12 Conference presidents would vote on whether to add the extra conference game when they met yesterday and Monday in Kansas City, Mo. Associate Athletics Director Jim Marchiony didn't think the idea to add a conference game to the schedule was a popular one at the meeting in Colorado Springs. the meeting in Colorado "There was very little support for the proposal amongst members of the conference," Marchionty said by phone from Corvallis, Ore., where he was attending the first round of the NCAA Baseball Tournament "The University of Kansas is not in favor of it." Marchiony said that it's already tough enough to create an even schedule each year without having to add another conference game to the mix. The way the schedule is set up now allows the University flexibility to schedule whomever it wants. He said that the issue had been raised to ease scheduling difficulties in the non conference, not for the TV revenue generated by having an extra conference game on the schedule. Dr. Don Green, professor of Chemical Engineering at KU, attended the meetings yesterday and Monday in Kansas City, Mo., as the faculty athletic representative to the NCAA and the Big 12 Conference. Chancellor Hemenway is on vacation and will be out of his office until June 13. The meeting will determine the locations of championships sites for basketball and football for the 2007 and 2008 seasons as well as cover any recommendations discussed in the coaches and athletics director's meeting that took place in May.

WEDNESDAY, JUNE 7, 2006 NEWS THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN 5 CAMPUS New provost ready to help staff, faculty and students BY FRED A. DAVIS III fdavis@kansan.com KANSAN STAIRS WRITER So far, so good. That's the initial impression from new provost and executive vice chancellor Robert Lariviere two days into his new job at the University of Kansas. After 24 years at the University of Texas in Austin, where he served the past seven years as dean of the College of Liberal Arts, Lariviere was selected as provost in February. "This is a great job. KU is an important institution nationally, and to combine the jobs of provost and executive vice chancellor, this job is a great opportunity," Lariviere said. Granted, Lariviere has not had much time to delve into any serious campus business, though he is aware of some of the issues facing the University and has preliminary ideas of what he envisions for it - while still learning about the University. "KU is at a huge advantage because it's a very good research institution, yet it has maintained a culture that places a big value on its quality of education." Lariviere said. "I want to figure out ways to help faculty and staff tell the story of KU, loudly and effectively." Lariviere is also aware of what he is inheriting. Lariviere said he has yet to meet with all the faculty at the University and that he wants to listen to their needs and ideas before he decides on what issues to tackle. He said he wants to understand the priorities of the faculty and students before evaluating what talents he has to address those priorities. Concerning his decision to leave UT, Lariviere said that after 24 years in Austin, it was the right time for a change, and KU provided that change. Lariviere said he would definitely miss his friends from Austin but that he'd do just fine without the 100-degree heat from early-April to late-November. Lariviere wouldn't concede wholly that KU would be his last professional stop, yet affirms that he can't see himself going anywhere else in the future. The 56-year-old Lariviere, a self-proclaimed "work-nerd" said that KU students can expect him to "work really hard to give them the best education possible with the resources we have." "I was the beneficiary of that type of education, and I know how important and valuable it is," he said. 1930 "Shulenburger and Hemenway have put together a hell of an institution, and it deserves to be boasted about and not just for Kansas,but the region as well." Robert Lariiviere, new provost and executive vice chancellor LETTER TO THE EDITOR Dear Students, Faculty and Chancellor Hemenway, Congratulations to the Jayhawks for selecting Richard Lariviere to be your Provost and Executive Vice Chancellor! I envy you for your future days, weeks and years that shall be spent sharing the blessings and good fortune of one among this Earth's classiest human beings. Dr. Lariviere exudes strong leadership (softly spoken), highest integrity, exemplary character, judicious wisdom and superior intellectual vigor. And to top off all that, few are more diligent regarding generosity and service to the community. He is the complete educator and citizen! As the Provost strides along Jayhawk Boulevard or you encounter him in and around Strong Hall please extend him a warm welcome and hello. Nothing elaborate, nothing fawning or cheesy, just your personal greeting. Richard Lariiviere will be deeply missed on the Forty Acres and beyond. There are folks in Texas and Longhorns around the world who have not yet come to realize how much he will be missed. Those of us who admired daily his legendarily good taste in suits, dress shirts and ties, as well as his engaging assortment of hats, will miss the smile that came with the clothes and the man. But more deeply, we will miss the comfort that accompanied the approach of a man most trustworthy, most hard-working, fearless, sharp, well-informed and wise. Kansans will gain the spoils of his intellectual verve and commitment to bettering education. Ironically, many will attend Longhorn and Jayhawk athletic competitions with heightened interest. I cannot help but think that we have lost a much more consequential, yet nonetheless friendly, competition to strive for academic excellence to KU. Your selection of Richard Lariviere as Provost and Executive Vice Chancellor wins for the University of Kansas a significant boost in human and intellectual capital. His departure represents a significant loss for the state of Texas and the University of Texas. I salute you for your wisdom and good fortune! When you speak your plain hi or hello, please extend patience and understanding from the bottom of your heart. I promise you that my former boss, your first-class leader will not let you down.

E-mails were sent May 29; following a membership review that took place at the end of the spring semester. The review was conducted by the alumni Corporation Board of the Deta Psi chapter ofTheta Chi. Some of the members were invited back, but are on academic probation. Ryan Gerstner, president of the Corporation Board, said that the alumni had seen some unfavorable trends and that the Board was taking preemptive actions before it turned into a real problem. About 45 of the 68 members went through the review process, Gerstner said. Those who didn't were either graduating seniors or men who decided not to return next year. "I'm personally excited about it!" Gerstner said. "It gives the guys a clean slate. It gets them refocused on goals and being achievers. That's what Greek life is all about." However, not everyone is as enthusiastic about the changes. Hunter McDowell, Indianapolis, Ind. junior, was one of the men not invited back to Theta Chi. He said he thinks it's unfair that the alumni can pick and choose who is in and who is out. A newly-created Facebook group shows that McDowell is not alone in his sentiments. "Theta Chi rejects," of which McDowell is a member, has as its description the following: "A group for all those who have been freed from the tyranny of the Theta Chi Delta Psi chapter's alumni." Doug Tiffany, Lenexa senior, creator of the group, declined comment. According to the e-mail sent out, those who were not invited back will still have alumni status upon graduation. The membership review process consisted of two main components; a written questionnaire about grades and their leadership in the fraternity and an interview with a small group of alumni. In the interview, the men discussed what mistakes they might have made regarding property damage to the house and how they planned to better the fraternity next year. The decision to conduct the review was made completely by the Corporation Board, without any input from either the national organization or the University. Dave Westol, chief executive officer of Theta Chi fraternity, said that he was contacted by a member of the Corporation Board who was concerned about the fraternity and wanted to know how to conduct the review. Westol said he was supportive of the decision because it showed that the Board was taking responsibility for its house with the appropriate actions. Reuben Perez, director of the Student Involvement and Leadership Center, confirmed that the University had no involvement in the decision, and said it's not uncommon for a chapter to go through this process. "It doesn't mean they're in trouble," Perez said. "Sometimes the alumni want to change things." One of the biggest changes in the house was to the executive board roster. The alumni replaced the president and vice-president. The vice-president was promoted to president, and the new vicepresident, Murtaza Khan, Wichita senior, was selected from the general membership of the house. Brandon Dunklau, Olathe senior, and new Theta Chi president, said that it may look bad, but all Greek houses go through highs and lows. "I think it will be a positive thing for the house," Dunklau said. "It needed to be done. It will be to the benefit of our house." There is an appeal process for those members not invited back to the house. All appeals are to be no more than two pages long, typed and turned in by June 19 to Gerstner. It must also be accompanied by two letters of recommendation. Notifications of the Board's decisions are expected to be sent out July 19.

WEDNESDAY, JUNE 7, 2006 NEWS THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN 7 CAMPUS Fixing a good thing Construction crews take over campus to make summer semester improvements BY TOM SLAUGHTER tslaughter@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER Construction on campus during the summer months has become a common theme. For the past few weeks, bright orange "road closed" signs have been blocking traffic on Jayhawk Boulevard and Sunnyside Avenue. A construction worker grabs his water bottle for a drink last Friday morning on the roof of Twente Hall, south of Watson Library. Workers across campus will be repairing roofs and roads throughout the summer, Joshua Bickel/KANSAN Corman said. "I say give us a better way." Current projects include the re-paving of roads, the addition of the Docking gateway near 13th street and Oread Avenue, and the remodeling of the food court in the Kansas Union. While the noisy construction and blocked streets may serve as an inconvenience to students and faculty waiting for the summer session to start, many still believe all of the work is a necessary evil. "I think most people understand you have to fix things up when they're falling apart," Warren Corman, University architect for the department of Business and Financial Planning, said it is common for problems to arise on projects of this magnitude, but overall everything is still running smoothly. The paving projects included sections of Jayhawk Blvd. outside of the Kansas Union and the Chi-Omega fountain, and areas of Sunnyside Avenue. They should all be completed by the end of this week, Corman said. The new gateway, perhaps the gem of all of the projects, is the result of a half-million dollar donation by former state Lt. Governor Tom Docking and his wife, Jill, both KU alumni. The gateway will include a fountain with five jets shooting water vertically. It is scheduled to be completed in September. Pat Beard, Building Services Director for KU Memorial Unions, has been overseeing the construction inside the Union. He expressed excitement over the new gateway and the improvements to the union because he said that it will hopefully bring more traffic and prestige to the location. "We were kind of the back door of campus," Beard said. Beard said the union has been slowly trying to reduce its affiliation with franchises in the food court, citing the end of their relationship with Burger King. He said the company refused to change its method of cooking burgers on the spot, which became a conflict in the interest of time. The Union will introduce its own hamburger station that will place more of an emphasis on speed. He added that there will be tables and Also part of the renovations is moving the old coffee shop from the food court to the fourth floor across from Commerce Bank, allowing the salad bar in the food court to expand. Theushi bar will also double in size. chairs placed outside the Union to create a "sidewalk café-type feel," similar to that at The Underground. There is close to $500 million in other projects either currently being completed, in the planning process or in fundraising at KU, Corman said. Hashinger Hall, closed for all of last year because of remodeling, is scheduled to be completed and open to students in August. CAMPUS Popular residence hall to reopen with new look and old quirks BY DANI HURST dhurst@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER Thanks to extensive input from residents, Hashinger Hall will be a new breed of residence halls after renovations are completed. Malakai Edison, Olathe senior, and Hashinger resident of four years, said he's happy with the way the renovations are working out because the students' ideas and suggestions were taken into account. He joined the Renovation Committee, which was made up of students and administrators from Student Housing and other students, to help ensure that things were being done to accommodate the residents and not just Student Housing. The bedrooms, for example, were one of the areas of great interest to students. According to Edison, the original plan was to transform the rooms from their original dorm-style to elaborate suite-style. Edison voiced his complaints, claiming that the dorm-style rooms contributed to the community feel that defines Hashinger. His arguments proved effective, and the rooms remained dorm-style. Vince Avila, associate director for facilities planning and development for Student Housing, said most of the changes that were made to Hashinger were requested by the students. "They wanted community bathrooms" Avila said. "That's why we have them." Denton Nichols, project architect for Treanor Architects, said that he was most proud of the project because it really reflects the students. He said it looks new but still feels like the old Hashinger. "It's one of the most successful To see photos of the renovations go to Kansan. com/galleries projects in my short career," Nichols said. "The students should get a lot of credit. They had a lot to do with it." Some of the major renovations include more specialized program and practice rooms for both music and dance, small sinks in the rooms, community bathrooms and sheet rock walls to accommodate those students wanting to display artwork on all of the walls in Hashinger. Edison said he was fine with the renovations as long as they didn't hide the past. For example, he's happy that there will be sheet rock walls that make it easier to display artwork, so long as there are still some cinder block walls left alone. Diana Hall, Horton senior, said that she's excited to get back to the diverse and open culture of Hashinger. He will be returning to Hashinger for his fifth year, this time as the desk manager. Edison said a lot of old residents were coming back. "I consider it my home away from home," Hall said. "Coming back is like coming back home." Avila said all the renovations on the 15-month project should be done in time for the students to move in at the beginning of the fall semester. While nothing is set, Avila said GSP-Corbin Hall or Oliver Hall would be the next project.

Well, after observing the Big 12 Champion Kansas softball team and hearing from coach Tracy Bunge, it is obvious that the new rhyme should be 'May showers bring softball powers.' "We played real bad that weekend and for most of the game against Wichita State", Kansas coach Bunge said of Kansas' May 3 game against Oklahoma. "Then the rain started, and Serena came out with her home run afterwards. If that rain delay had canceled the game, who knows what would have happened." Nobody knows what would have happened without the downpour, but what did happen was that Serena Settlemier's homer sparked Kansas to reach new heights with an eight-game winning streak, the program's first Big 12 Championship and an NCAA regional berth. On May 11, the Jayhawks began their improbable run to the Big 12 Tournament title in Oklahoma City, Kansas, which entered the tournament as the sixth seed, upset third- seeded Baylor in the first round. Later that day, the Kansas followed its victory against Baylor by shutting out Missouri and Nebraska, setting up a championship game against Oklahoma. In the championship game, the Jayhawks showed they were ready to win early. In the first inning, freshman center fielder Stevie Crisosto singled and advanced to third on the senior Settlemier's double. With two outs, senior second baseman Jessica Moppin drove in both runners, giving the Jayhawks an early lead. But Oklahoma answered back in the bottom of the first, scoring two runs off pitcher Settlemier. After Settlemier allowed a leadoff hit in the second, junior Kassie Humphreys trotted out to the hill, and the game might as well have been over. The All-Big 12 First Teamer, who had just pitched two complete games, allowed only two hits and recorded seven strikeouts in six innings. "I was a little sore, but the adrenaline just takes you over," Humphreys said after her performance. "The defense was doing well behind me, and I knew it would come down to us scoring runs." Humphreys was right. As she continued to pitch a gem, the Jayhawk offense finally broke through in the sixth inning. With runners on first and second, Moppin laced a pitch deep off the left field wall, scoring one runner. Senior right fielder Heather Stanley drove in another on a sacrifice fly, giving Kansas a 4-2 lead that sealed the Big 12 Championship. "We swung the bats well. It just was a solid overall team effort." Bunge said after the game. "It was an absolutely fun day. I'm so proud of this team and so proud of my seniors in particular." seniors in particular. With the Big 12 Championship won, Kansas earned an automatic berth into the NCAA Tournament, where they met BYU in the first round on May 18 in the Provo, Utah, regional. The third-seeded Jayhawks upset the second-seeded Cougars on the heels of another standout performance by Humphreys to earn their eighth straight victory. Unfortunately for Kansas, it was unable to beat top seeded Washington. The Jayhawks lost to the Huskies on consecutive days and were eliminated from the NCAA Tournament. Even though the end was bittersweet, Kansas (36-26, 8-10 Big 12) had plenty of accomplishments. Kansas upset No. 2 Texas during the regular season, won its first Big 12 Tournament championship and advanced to its second straight NCAA Regional. Leading the way for the Jayhawks this year were Settlemier and Humphreys. Settlemier, who was named Big 12 Player of the Year and an NFCA Second Team All-American, led the team in batting average at .281, home runs and RBI's. Her school record 22 home runs and her 61 RIB also led the conference. On the mound, she was third in the conference in ERA and picked up 17 victories. Perhaps the most extraordinary stat of Settlemier's was her performance with the bases loaded. She was 7-for-8 with the bags full and had six grand slams. Humphreys had a breakout year on the mound, finishing second in the Big 12 with a 1.19 ERA. She earned Big 12 Pitcher of the Week honors twice and was named National Player of the Week because of her performance in the Big 12 Tournament. "For a couple of weeks in the middle of the season, she was pitching as good as anyone in the country" Bunge said of Humphreys. "Then she was a little inconsistent for a while before picking it up again here at the end of the season." In the Big 12 Tournament, Humphreys carried the team on her shoulders, pitching 22 innings without allowing a single run and striking out 25 batters. She also pitched a shutout against BYU in the NCAA Regional and had 19 victories during the season.

Two weeks after the sixth seeded Kansas softball team won its first ever Big 12 Tournament title, sixes were wild again in Oklahoma City for the baseball tournament. The sixth seeded Kansas baseball team swept through the Big 12 Tournament, defeating nationally ranked No. 14 Nebraska (8-2). Kansas also defeated two other ranked teams, Oklahoma and Oklahoma State, on its way to its first postseason tournament title. With the victory, Kansas earned an automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament, placed in the Corvallis, Ore., region with Oregon State, Hawaii and Wright State. It was the program's first appearance since 1994. Kansas scored first in the top of the second inning against Nebraska. Designated hitter Brock Simpson was walked with two outs in the inning. First baseman Preston Land was also walked, moving Simpson to second base. Catcher Buck Afenir's single scored Simpson, giving Kansas the 1-0 lead and moved Land to second. Center fielder Matt Baty struck out to end the inning. The Jayhawks struck again, scoring four runs in the next inning. Third baseman Erik Morrison scored two runs on a single up the middle of the infield. Shortstop Ritchie Price and Morrison scored Kansas' two other runs in the inning. Left fielder John Allman and Simpson each scored a run for Kansas in the fifth inning. Second baseman Jared Schweitzer homered to left field in the sixth to give Kansas an 8-2 lead. The Jayhawks extended that lead to 9-2 on an error by Husker center fielder Bryce Nimmo. Nebraska kept its hopes alive in the bottom of the 8th with a two-run home run by shortstop Ryan Wehrle, making it a 9-4 game.

Nebraska right fielder Andrew Brown scored on a single from catcher Jeff Christy, setting the score at 9-5 entering the ninth inning. Nebraska scored one more on a single up the middle of the infield followed by another single to left field. Designated hitter Andy Gerch kept the rally alive with a single to left, making the score 9-7. First team All-Big 12 closer Don Czyz entered the game with no warm-up session to close the game out. Czyz fell behind with a 2-0 count, but on his third pitch to Jake Opitz, forced Opitz into a ground out. Starting pitcher Nick Czyz went five and one-third innings giving up two runs off three hits and struck out four batters. His older brother Don earned his 18th save of the season. "Don has been incredible for us all year," said second baseman Jared Schweitzer Starting pitcher Nick Czyz went five and one-third innings giving up two runs off three hits and struck out four batters. Kansas went on to beat Hawaii in its opening round game Friday, but lost to Oregon State the next day. Despite opening a five-run lead in the elimination game Sunday against Hawaii, the Jayhawks couldn't hold on and their season ended with a 42-25 record. Still, the team's unlikely run through the Big 12Tournament was enough to make the season a success by most standards. 9 photos by Jeff Jacobsen/Kansas Athletics 19 (top to bottom) Senior infielder Matt Baty bumps chests with senior pitcher Don Czyz during their game May 27 against Missouri.

SpiritBank 10 THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN NEWS WEDNESDAY, JUNE 7, 2006 Damaged trees create hazards Microburst aftermath still being felt on campus BY DARION PEARSON dpearson@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER If a tree falls on campus during a microburst and no one is around to hear it, will it still make a sound? In the case of the severe wind and rainstorm that took place March 12, this normally slippery philosophical question yields an easy, practical answer: Yes. And when between 50 and 75 trees fell that day, Bob Abbott, KU landscape maintenance supervisor, and his crew hurried on campus to clean up the mess. Abbott, like most of the KU community saw a thrashed version of campus. The destruction included more than just the trees fallen on the day of the storm. About 50 more had to be cut down in the following weeks and months—including some within the past few weeks. Among those trees, the microburst forced maintenance crews to take down a 110-feet tall state champion pin oak tree just southwest of Memorial Stadium because it was split nearly six feet along its trunk. split nearly six feet along its trunk So who decides which damaged trees stay and which must be cut down? stay and who else For the most part, nature made the decision about whether or not a tree was completely downed. If trees blocked or cluttered sidewalks, roads or other areas,the members cleared them for safety and passage. "The first day we came out, it was simply a matter of getting the hazards out of the street and off the sidewalk so that people could make their way through campus," Abbott said. When a tree was not completely destroyed, the decision to cut it down or not belonged to Abbott and other supervisors .They surveyed possible looming danger of over-hanging or weak limbs, large splits in trunks and utility hazards. Even with those high hopes, high-speed winds and the consequent preemptive tree leveling added up to the destruction of more than 120 of the campus' trees. "If the top of the tree was blown out, then the whole thing had to go," Abbott said about the decision-making process, "but we examine every tree with the hopes of saving it." On an almost 18,000 tree strong campus, the number reads small, but landscape maintenance team members and local tree conservationists agree the storm itself and its impact on campus trees are notable. Abbott and a co-worker recall their work during the past years and concur that between the tree and roof damage, they had not witnessed such a destructive storm in all their time at the University of Kansas. "The first day we came out, it was simply a matter of getting the hazards out of the street and off the sidewalk so that people could make their way through campus." BOB ABBOTT KU landscape maintenance supervisor Richard Morantz, LawrenceTree Conservancy Chair, is concerned about the natural and man-made destruction and would like to see a more careful trimming program in the city and on campus. "With the destructive power of Mother Nature, it is important for humans not to destroy, but to protect our trees," he said. The loss of the champion pin oak and many others are neither easily replaced nor comparably supplanted by young saplings. Abbott said that not nearly as many trees were replaced as he would have liked mainly because of finances and the high maintenance the tree demands in the first year. "It takes more than one hundred years to grow an oak and it takes us only two hours to clear it." Abbott said. "It's a sad thing."

HEALTH Teen taken off respirator After legal battle, family of 14-year-old drops restraining order against KU Med BY DANI HURST dhurst@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER After much deliberation, a 14-year-old boy was taken off mechanical respirators, May 19, at the University of Kansas Hospital after a second declaration of him being brain dead. Michael J. Todd, Kansas City, Mo., native, was declared brain dead by a physician independent of the University of Kansas Hospital on May 19. Shortly after, the temporary restraining order requested by his mother, Cecelia B. Cole, was lifted and the machines were stopped. stopped. Todd was brought to the hospital May 9 when he was shot in the neck, and declared brain dead May 10. Cole, however, wanted a second opinion before he was removed from the machinery and requested a temporary restraining order prohibiting anyone from removing the boy from the respirators until another physician examined him. Dennis McCulloch, director of public and government relations for the University of Kansas Hospital, said that in situations like this, the hospital tries to work as closely as possible with families so they get a sense of closure. The hospital has the legal right to remove anyone declared brain dead from machinery, McCulloch said, but it is not the hospital's policy. McCulloch said the hospital was happy to accommodate Cole's request for an independent physician, but said that it took a while to find a qualified person. The doctor had to meet both the needs of the family as well as have certain credentials in accordance with hospital policies. "A declaration of brain death is a declaration of death;" McCulloch said, "because there is no chance of recovery." Minister Octavia Southall, CEO/executive director of the community outreach program GateKeepers of Kansas City, Mo., spoke on behalf of the family. McCulloch was unable to discuss certain elements of Todd's treatment because of medical privacy laws. Mr. spoke of it: "I'm happy it is where it is." Southall said. "I'm glad the mom got the resolution she needed." "It was a difficult time for everyone concerned," McCulloch said. After trying to reach the family, Southall said that they were unwilling to comment. Todd's death certificate listed May 10, the date of the original declaration of brain death, as his official date of death. Good advice is closer than you think...

The liquor store, at 901 Mississippi St., could close because the owner allegedly has a stake in another liquor store and is only allowed to own one in the state of Kansas. Cork & Barrel may lose liquor license BY TOM SLAUGHTER tslaughter@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER Lawrence residents looking to buy alcohol might have to start looking in other directions if a Kansas state Alcohol Beverage Control ruling holds up regarding Cork & Barrel on 9th and Mississippi streets. Douglas County District Court Judge Stephen Six ruled last week that the Kansas ABC could revoke Cork and Barrel owner Dan Blomgren's liquor license because he had an ownership stake in another Lawrence store; an arrangement deemed illegal by the division. According to the statute, Kansas liquor store owners are not allowed to own more than one liquor store in the state. Married couples are allowed to own two stores as long as there is one store in each spouse's name, respectively. The ABC also attempted to revoke the license of Jill Blomgren — Dan's wife, and owner of the Cork & Barrel on 23rd and Iowa streets — on the grounds that she was giving herself an advantage over other liquor stores by selling products that weren't alcoholic, among other things. Sarah Byrne, Assistant Attorney General, said that Six was to decide whether or not the agency overstepped its bounds or made the decision in an "arbitrary and capricious" manner. Six ruled in favor of Mrs. Blomgren. Byrne expressed the ABC's disapproval of the decision. "We were disappointed that he reversed the revocation of Jill's store," she said. Byrne said that Six put himself in the position of "trier effect," meaning he was "assessing the evidence instead of the decision." Both Mr. Blomgren and the state are in the process of deciding whether or not to appeal the decisions on their respective cases. Residents living in the area expressed discontent in the idea of the store closing. "It's a good location for college students," said Katy Toplikar, Lawrence resident. The location is good for tailgating at football games because of its proximity to Memorial Stadium, she said. KU graduate Rob Scott lived at 937 Alabama St. for two years. He said that the decision is unfortunate because the store is reasonably priced. LAWRENCE Construction takes toll on city BY TOM SLAUGHTER tslaughter@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER Many local business owners will admit that profits tend to decrease as KU students leave town for the summer months. While businesses have become adept at fighting this obstacle, the city of Lawrence has left them to face a new dilemma; construction. Construction crews began replacing water lines between seventh and ninth streets on the eastern side of Massachusetts Street May 22. According to Chris Stewart, acting director for the Utilities Department, this is the 12th working day out of 35 in which construction on the eastern side will continue. This will leave the western half of the street open to south-bound traffic. When the work is completed, construction will begin on the western half of the street for approximately 35 days, leaving north-bound side available for traffic. The construction is one component to a larger project designed to replace all of the water lines on Massachusetts Street between 6th and 11th streets. Initiated by the Utilities Department in 2004, the plan was presented to the city commission and approved. It is scheduled to be completed by next year. Stewart, said that the department was working closely with businesses downtown in order to accommodate them in the best manner possible. He noted there would be some problems. "It is an inconvenience for everybody, and we've tried to do everything we can," he said. The construction was necessary because the 100-year-old water lines have ruptured in the past, negatively affecting surrounding businesses. Jordan Shelton, owner of Vermont Street BBQ, said that it is too early to tell whether or not the construction will have a negative impact on his restaurant. His regular clientele hasn't stopped coming in. "We're not as student-dependent as a lot of places are," he said. Jon Amyx, owner of Downtown Barber, said at first he was worried about his business slowing down, but so far the summer has been "typical". He is concerned, however, about the speed of the operation. "I think they could have worked a little faster," Amyx said. Local business owners affected by the construction have voiced their opinions to Rick Marquez, director of Downtown Lawrence, Inc. The company is a not-for-profit membership organization designed to protect the interests of local businesses. Marquez sought them out to form a consensus on the operation. He said that opinions have been mixed, but that most owners do not feel as though they are suffering unusual decreases in profits. Downtown Lawrence, Inc., is going to start advertising the necessity of the project, as well as the fact that businesses downtown are still open, he said. One area the city is risking the potential for profit loss is in parking revenue. While construction is being performed, only half of the parking spaces between seventh and ninth streets will be available. Last summer, while a similar project was performed on the 600 block of Massachusetts, the city generated almost $130,000 in parking revenue — close to a third of the $382,000 parking revenue earned for the year. So far for 2006, the city has earned $162,368.35 from parking.

It's a difficult task for various reasons, but most of all searching for that perfect job takes up time and patience. Jobs in Lawrence fill up fast because of the vast amount of college students who arrive each year. The summer months seem to open up more employment opportunities after students leave, but some businesses don't hire for summer because the Lawrence population decreases. "As kids leave, traffic slows down, therefore the need for employees goes down also," said Matt Furse general manager of Britches, 843 Massachusetts St. Luckily for those students still looking for a job, some businesses that have already done summer hiring want to hire one to two more people, while others haven't even begun theirs. Backyard Burgers, 2351 W. 31st St., is one of the businesses that recently started hiring its summer staff. miring its summer start. Martin Hash, co-owner, said he will hire approximately two people this summer. Out of his 25 employees, Hash said he has about 10 who are college students. When interviewing people for positions, Hash said he looks for people who will look him in the eye and speak clearly. Even if Hash isn't hiring, he is always looking for new employees. loving to help employees. "You always want that golden child to walk in, so we always accept applications." Hash said. Libby Strong, Barrington, Ill., junior has had trouble finding a summer job in Lawrence. She applied at various places on the KU Web site, such as the Burge Union bookstore and the computer tech shop in the Kansas Union. Strong said she would like to waitress, but didn't apply at any restaurants because of rumors that no jobs were available. "I heard everywhere was full, so I didn't waste my time." Strong said W Other students have run into similar problems. House said he waited to start looking for a job until after classes let out and after he visited a friend's family in Illinois; time just wouldn't allow it. "I need a job. If I'm going to live here, I need to work," said Carter House, Overland Park junior. House applied at Capital Federal Bank and Commerce Bank a week ago, but hasn't heard back yet. throughout the year. Applebee's Neighborhood Grill & Bar, 3900 W. 6th St., has hired its summer staff, but is still accepting applications. Backyard Burgers isn't the only business that continuously reviews applications throughout the year. "I would tell anybody interested in a job to come on out," said Geoff Moncher, Applebee's manager. Kashan Javad, assistant manager at Abercrombie and Fitch, 647 Massachusetts St., said they always accept applications and are looking for new employees to fill positions left by students who left Lawrence for the summer. "We are more aiming towards summer since a lot of college kids are going home," Javed said about hiring for the summer rather than the fall. rational than the last. Some students don't have the hassle of trying to find a summer job because they already have one. Tom Whitehead, Leawood junior, has worked for his father during the summer for the past six years. His dad, Tom Whitehead Sr., is the owner and president of Phoenix Building Group, which is based out of Stillwell.The company covers general contracting projects all over the Kansas City, Kan., area. Whitehead decided to live at home for the summer to save money and not have to work during the school year. work taking the survey you. "I use what money I need to get by, for gas and my lunches, but other than that I'm just saving up for the school year," Tom Whitehead said. Despite living in Kansas City, Kan., with all his friends in Lawrence, Whitehead said he will be in town at least every other weekend.

Shoeless children in war-torn countries playing in a barren field. Fans packing a pub, eyes fixed on a television with the team's colors emblazoned on their faces. U2 songs playing in the background. It's the World Cup. playing in the back This isn't March Madness or the Super Bowl that's got the world in a frenzy. BY FRED A. DAVIS III fdavis@kansan.com KANSAN STAFT WRITER Soccer as it's known here in the states, or futbol to the rest of the world, is ready to take center stage for a month when the world's greatest sporting event begins on Friday. Now, I have to be honest, I'm not a big soccer fan. not a big soccer fan. I've never really followed the sport and never understood what could possess a person to run around - kicking a ball - for 90 plus minutes. The games are low scoring and a player can't use his hands. That was all I needed to make a judgment. But if you look closely at soccer. that's the beauty of the sport. it's not supposed to be high scoring, it takes a real athlete to run around kicking a ball for 90 plus minutes and the things that some of those guys do with the soccer球 is akin to what Pistol Pete did with a basketball-breathtaking. People in this part of the country love their hoops and football, and some, well, some even like baseball. Soccer is great for kids and moms, but at the major league level, it's still got a way to go before it can even sniff what the big boys - NFL, NBA and MLB - are doing. But that's here in the states. The rest of the world stops when soccer is playing. It's very much like March Madness is here, except, it's the WORLD that calls in sick, not just us. So, needing some clarity about this World Cup thing aside from what I've been hearing on the tube and reading in magazines, I spoke with someone who has actually coached in a World Cup, Kansas City Wizards coach Bob Gansler. Despite getting on me early in our conversation as to why KU has no nen's soccer team - "that wasn't my decision," I said - Gansler spoke candidly about soccer's increasing popularity in the states and why we should all watch the World Cup. should all watch the World "It's the ultimate competition. It's the world's game. You've got the stage and the participants." Gansler said. "It takes one city to host the Olympics, it takes a country to host This year's World Cup is hosted by Germany. Gansler, who's been in this country nearly all his life by way of Hungary - though he was raised in a German village and speaks German - said that given the relatively short time that soccer has been played in this country, the sport has evolved immensely. has involved military training. “This sport used to be called a foreigner's game. It's not a foreigner's game anymore." Gansler said. He points out the recent success and improvement of the United States national team - who he coached to the 1990 World Cup in Italy, the first World Cup appearance by an American squad in 40 years. by an internship supervisor "2002 made people notice", Gansler said, referring to the surprise quarterfinal run the U.S. team made. "Was it out of the ground? No. It just showed that the game is here to stay," he said. Concerning this year's team, which has a top-five world ranking, Gansler is suspect. "Rankings are a subjective thing...it's a fact, we're in the top 20 or dozen, and that's a very special thing." Gansler said. And the U.S.'s World Cup chances? "The guys could play better this year than they did in '02 and still not make it out of the first round," he said. About his own World Cup experience 16 years ago. Gansler summed it up nicely - "It's goose bumps running up and down your spine." and warm your spine So there you have it boys and girls, the ultimate competition, a spectacle featuring the World's greatest athletes, guys with names like Ronaldoinho, Ronaldo and Geraldo - okay, so he's not playing - and an entire planet that goes bonkers for thirty days about a sporting event. It's World Cup time baby. Bono will be watching, will you? Davis is a Topeka senior in english and journalism. ATHLETICS DEPARTMENT Falkenstien's football successor named BY JACK WEINSTEIN jweinstein@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER P. L. Lawrence David Lawrence will succeed Max Falkenstien as the commentator for football on the Jayhawk Radio Network starting next season. Falkenstien retired after broadcasting Kansas football and basketball games for the past 60 years. It might seem like a tough task to find a successor for a man that has broadcast more than 2,000 games, including some of the greatest moments in KU sports history, Associate Athletics Director Jim Marchiony said that wasn't the case. my said that wasn't the "it was an easy decision," Marchiony said. "There weren't a lot of negotiations and lengthy discussions between ESPN Plus and KU Athletics about who would succeed Max." Lawrence said he knew that the promotion would be a possibility after Max retired. "I had been around and on the sidelines," he said. "I knew it could happened, but I didn't take anything for granted. When I found out I, I was very excited. It's something I've wanted to do for a long time." Falkenstien said he was happy with the decision to hire Lawrence as the person to carry on the job that he started. He did great. He said Lawrence, a KU graduate and former offensive lineman and tight "He'll do great," he said. end for the Jayhawks, moves from the sidelines, where he has spent the past 12 years as the sideline reporter, to the broadcast booth to team up with Bob Davis. Davis has handled the play-by-play duties for football and basketball for the past 22 years. This is Lawrence's second stint in the booth. He was the analyst in 1982, the year after his graduation. At the time, he was torn between wanting a career in broadcasting and coaching.Moving to the booth at that time was a natural fit. Lawrence was already traveling with the team as a graduate assistant for former coach Don Fambrough. The end of that season proved to be a turning point for Lawrence. The Jayhawks finished 2-7-2 and Fambrough was fired. Lawrence had wanted to coach with Fambrough and left the University of Kansas after that season. "I was really disheartened with the University after Coach Fambrough's firing." Lawrence said. "So I left to coach high school." So high to coach high school Lawrence returned to the University for a year as an assistant to then Coach Mike Gottfried in 1984. The next year Lawrence started his teaching career at South Junior High in Lawrence. He also got his first head coaching job that year, a post he would hold at South Junior High for the next 17 years. In 1988, Lawrence returned to broadcasting as the analyst for KU football on Sunflower Broadband channel 6. He joined the Jayhawk Radio Network in 1994, forcing him to leave his duties with the channel 6 broadcast. Lawrence hosted a weekly sports talk show on KLWN for 10 years that he gave up in 2000. He stopped coaching at South Junior High in Nate Bukaty, a 1998 graduate of the School of Journalism at KU, will replace Lawrence as the sideline reporter for football broadcasts. Bukaty, the women's basketball play-by-play announcer for the past five seasons, will also host the pre-game "Crimson and Blue Line" show and the "Jayhawk Locker Room" show, duties formerly held by Lawrence. The commentator for basketball has not been named yet, but an announcement could come in the next month, according to Falkenstien. Bukaty has worked in radio and television in the metro area for the past seven years and his current duties include the pre and postgame coverage for Kansas City Royals Radio Network.

Smith, one of the original 13 founders of the Ladies Professional Golf Association in 1950 will join Vijay Singh, Larry Nelson and Henry Picard in this year's class. She will be inducted as this year's Lifetime Achievement inductee. In her five-decade career from the 1940s-1980s on the LPGA tour, Smith won 21 titles including two majors, the 1963 and 1964 Titleholders Championships. She served as the LPGA president from 1958-1960. Smith was also instrumental in the LPGA senior tour organizing one of the first events, the Marilynn Smith founders classic. She was the first female to broadcast at a men's golf tournament, reporting at the U.S. Open and the Colonial in 1973. The Marilynn Smith Sunflower Invitational, played at Alvamar Golf Club, has been an annual tournament there since 1993. - Jack Weinstein Nursing programs to get extra funding All the public nursing programs in Kansas will have the opportunity to receive funding from a ten-year Board of Regents proposal concerning the shortage of nurses in the state of Kansas. The funding for the first year of the ten-year initiative was approved last week. Those institutions eligible for the funding must submit applications that were sent to them on June 1. The plan was proposed to increase the nursing staff in the state of Kansas by 25 percent. It has been predicted by the Kansas Department of Labor that by 2010, to meet the workforce demand, there will be 6,890 new registered nurse positions available. A reason for the shortage is a greater demand in the health care system for an aging population, during the time when many registered nurses will be retiring. Senator Jim Barone (D-Frontenac) said it doesn't make sense that we have people interested in nursing, but are turned away from the school because lack of money. "Here we have qualified applicants,but we don't have the funding," he said. -Adrienne Bommarito Czyz wins top award for closer in NCAA Kansas senior closer Don Czyz was awarded the 2006 Stopper of the Year by the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association last Thursday. Czyz has already been named to the Louisville Slugger All-America First Team, the All-Big 12 First Team and the 2006 College Foundation All-America team. Czyz beat out Josh Fields of Georgia, Kevin Gunderson of Oregon State, Vinnie Pestano of Cal State Fullerton and Cole St. Clair of Rice to win the award. The Overland Park native finished with a 6-0 record, a 1.56 ERA while leading the nation with 19 saves. The right hander struck out 60 in 63.1 innings pitched. This past season, Czyz helped lead the Jayhawks (43-25, 13-14 Big 12) to their first Big 12 Conference tournament title and an appearance in the NCAA baseball tournament, their first since 1993. Czyz holds the Big 12 career mark for appearances with 128. His 19 saves and 37 appearances this past season are a Kansas single-season record. He also holds KU career records for saves and appearances. Last week, Czyz was selected in the seventh round of the Major League Baseball draft by the Florida Marlins. Jack Weinstein Fairchild signs with Cleveland Indians A seventh Jayhawk from the 2006 baseball squad has the opportunity to embark on his professional career. Senior right-hander Ricky Fairchild signed a free agent contract with the Cleveland Indians. Fairchild transferred to Kansas from Tulane this season and became a mainstay in the Kansas weekend rotation. In 18 starts, Fairchild garnered a 6-6 record and ate up 95.1 innings while compiling 42 strikeouts. He tied senior closer Don Czyz for second-most wins on the team, and only senior right-hander Kodiak Quick pitched more innings. Czyz, Quick, senior outfielder Gus Milner, senior shortstop Ritchie Price, senior infielder Jared Schweitzer and junior left-hander Sean Land were all drafted in last week's MLB Amateur Draft. -Shawn Shroyer Former golfer qualifies for 2007 U.S. Open Former Kansas golfer Travis Hurst qualified for the 2007 U.S. Open at Winged Foot Golf Club in Mamaroneck, N.Y.

Wescoe Hall undergoes testing to find a possible link to brain tumors, five cases recorded BY DANI HURST dhurst@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER The first series of tests in Wescoe Hall began last week to see if the building can be linked to a series of cases of brain tumors within the past eight years. These primary air sampling tests started June 8 and continued on June 9 and 12. John Neuberger, epidemiologist and principle investigator, held a closed meeting with about 30 concerned Wescoe Hall employees June 7 to discuss the outline of the study and answer questions they might have about it. The meeting was closed to ensure that the people there could freely discuss health issues. According to Neuberger, there have been at least five cases of brain tumors, both benign and malignant. Another sampling will be taken in the fall or winter, according to a handout from the meeting. The company doing the testing will be testing for radon, volatile organic compounds, carbon dioxide and mold, as well as other chemicals. The tests will also check the bestos and lead content within the building, as well as the electromagnetic fields and air exchange velocity at certain locations. Kathleen McCluskey-Fawcett, senior Vice Provost for Academic Affairs, said that the University was responding to concerns from faculty members. Neuberger said that because the types of tumors in question develop over long periods of time, this should not be an issue to students. This situation, however, has proven of large concern to many faculty members that have spent years working in their offices located in Wescoe Hall. Marjorie Swann, associate professor of English, said that in light of the staff people - like the custodial staff - do not have that choice. Swann said that it would be optimal if all staff and faculty had the option to be relocated, but said she understands there is a space problem. in a space problem. "I take this very seriously," Swann said. "I think it's fair to say that everyone in Wescoe is now afraid." According to Neuberger, the average statistic for brain cancer is 6.6 cases out of ev- "I think it's fair to say that everyone in Wescoe is now afraid." situation, she has moved out of her office and works from home, visiting Wescoe Hall only when necessary. She said that because she is part of the faculty she has that option, but the MARJORIE SWANN Associate professor of English ery 10,000 people. So far, there have been at least five reported cases of brain tumors, three of which occurred within the past year. About 400 people have offices in Wescoe Hall. "We have absolutely no reason to believe that there are health-related problems in Wescoe," McCluskey-Fawcett said. "But we do care about our employees." If the testing turned up anything to be worried about, McCluskey-Fawcett said the University would take immediate action. "It freaks me out a little bit," said Kelli Teague, Belleplaine, junior. "But since I'm not here as often as the teachers are, I'm not personally concerned." "I'm glad they're investigating it," said Andrew Ledbetter, Lawrence graduate student. But I'm not that freaked out." The testing process has two phases: the first is the air quality and electromagnetic testing, and the second is an interview process with those who either currently work in and have worked in Wescoe Hall, and an inquiry about their medical history. McCluskey-Fawcett said the total cost for the seven-month investigation would not be determined until after the lab sent the bills. Although the five cases have occurred in people whose offices were on the second and thrid floors, Neuberger said that all floors will be checked. "I think the University is responding quickly and very responsibly," Swann said. "I think they are doing the right thing." - Edited by Adrienne Bommarito uncomplicate your life A Pre Order for Fall '06 Greatest Selection of Used Books Plus an extra 5% discount it's just better service at... www.jayhawkbookstore.com Jayhawk Bookstore home grown & owned ...at the top of the hill 843-3826 • 1420 Crescent Hill A MASS.

WEDNESDAY, JUNE 14,2006 NEWS THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN 5 LAW Speeding on by A proposal by the traffic commission could increase speed limit on portion of Sixth Street The speed limit on Sixth Street heading west could change from 40 mph to 45 mph because of a proposal by the Lawrence Traffic Commission. Under the traffic commissions' recommendation, the speed limit would become 45 mph at Monterey Way and stay at that speed until city limits. BY TOM SLAUGHTER tslaughter@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER The Kansas Department of Transportation recommended to the traffic commission that the speed limit be set at an intersection instead of in the middle of a street. According to traffic commissioner Robert Hagan, changing the speed limit in the middle of a street would require more signs and could be confusing for drivers. April Pinon, Topeka senior, who works at Marisco's restaurant on Sixth Street and Wakarausa Drive, was happy about the proposed increase. She makes the drive west on Sixth Street to get to work and said she usually drives five mph over the speed limit anyway. According to David Woosley, public works staff liaison for the city, the new speed limit was recommended at 45 mph because if the number were lower, there would be a greater chance at collisions because the majority of people are going above the speed limit anyway. Hagan said that the street was designed to accommodate vehicles traveling at 45 mph. Commercial development and congestion in the area is the basis of one argument against the increase, so an increase in speed isn't pertinent. However, the only citizens that spoke up on the subject were in favor of a speed increase. "I would definitely be for it," Pinon said. The Kansas Department of Transportation set up speed counters on Sixth Street, and found that 85 percent of the traffic passing through was clocked going at or below 48 mph. Their recommendation was based off of this number. The traffic commission voted unanimously in favor of the increase. The city commission will discuss the matter in a two to three weeks. Kendra Jones, Lawrence senior and employee of JB Stout's Sports Bar & Grill, said she thought the proposed speed increase was a good idea, even in the residential area affected by the increase. Vehicles drive by a speed limit sign near Sixth and Wakarausa streets Monday morning. The City Commission recently approved a proposal to raise the speed limit to 45 mph along Sixth Street from Monterray Way to K-10. SPEED LIMIT 40 Joshua Bickel/KANSAN "It's residential, but it's not like there are houses facing Monterey," Jones said. —Edited by Adrienne Bommarito LAW DRIVING WHILE TALKING Cell phone ban could mean trouble for those who like to multitask BY TOM SLAUGHTER tslaughter@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER Nobody ever said cell phones were cheap. Paying for a phone and the service required to use it is expected, but traffic tickets for using one while driving? The Lawrence city commission might soon make that a reality. In the coming weeks, city commissioners will have to consider a controversial traffic safety proposal that would make it illegal to use cell phones while driving, including the use of hands-free devices. If approved, the decision would make Lawrence's the harshest cell phone ban in the nation. Chris Wolfe, Topека senior, needed only two words to express his feelings on the matter. "That's ridiculous," he said. In a 5-4 vote June 5, the city traffic commission narrowly gave its disapproval of the ban. The traffic commission doesn't make decisions for the city; they only act as an advisory board for the city commission. Wolfe said that he was against a full ban on cell phones, but not necessarily one that banned hands-free devices. "I can't be supportive of all an out ban on cell phones;" Jim Ziegelmeyer Jr., chairman of traffic commission, said. "I think that the citizens feel strongly that this is a bad ordinance" he said. Close to a dozen local citizens and representatives for Sprint and Cingular Wireless spoke at the meeting, which lasted more than three hours at City Hall. The majority of the speakers expressed disdain for the proposal, citing mostly the same reasons, respectively. They compared using a cell phone to turning the dial on a car radio. "We already have ordinances that regulate inattentive driving which would cover cell phone usage. I would like to hear what the staff's recommendation is for increasing the fines with regard to this situation, but I would not support a total ban on cell phones in Lawrence." Hack said. Sue Hack, vice mayor, echoed the sentiments of many of the proposal's opponents. She said that the hands-free portion of the ordinance was harsh, and would be difficult to enforce. Critics have questioned precisely how a police officer would be expected to notice another driver using a cell phone, particularly at night. Opponents have also claimed that most drivers would probably not pay attention to the ordinance. Paul Aatchley, associate professor of psychology, provided the committee with evidence in favor of a ban. He studies cognitive perception and attention at KU. Nathan Cox, Knoxville, Tenn., graduate student, said he would not be opposed to an all-out ban. "There is something about talking on a cell phone that is more distracting." he said. "The body of research indicates that cell phone use is just as dangerous as driving drunk," Atchely said. Traffic commissioner Carol Jean Brune gave her support for the ban. "Cell phone usage by a driver presents a hazard that I would not want as a driver in the City of Lawrence," Brune said. According to Robert Hagan, traffic commissioner, there was no specific fine proposed for violating the ordinance. — Edited by Adrienne Bommarito A home to fit your needs 901 Illinois 2 By Remodeled Close to Campus Eastview 1023 Mjsswappi Close to Campus Remodeled 1025 Mississippi Close to Campus Remodeled 2 Br/2 Bd Westside!

The 2006 summer semester marks the first summer in which the Student Newspaper Readership Program will be offered. Mark Hinshaw, regional marketing manager for USA Today, said that this was an idea that has been in the works for a while, and is finally being implemented this summer. There will be eight operating klocs in high-traffic areas determined by the Student Senate around campus: Green Hall, Learned Hall, Fraser Hall, Watson Library, Anschutz Library, Summerfield Hall and two at the Kansas Union. Andrew Payne, Student Senate executive committee chair and Garden City senior, said that this summer will serve as a test run to see if the program is as successful during the summer as it is during the fall and spring semesters. The man and spring semester. "We're hoping there's as much of a demand." Payne said. "We're anticipating there will be." - The New York Times, USA Today, The Kansas City Star and the Lawrence Journal-World — for students at the cost of $5 per student per semester, which is included in the student fees. Students swipe their KUID card in the machine and then take whichever papers they want to read. The funding for the program's summer expansion is being provided by funds leftover from the fee that students paid each fall and spring semester since 2001, the first year of the program. According to Payne, the total amount spent on the program in 2005 was $160,000. Hinshaw said the summer program should cost around $11,000. not what never papers they "It helps with students' knowledge of current events," Payne said. "Teachers also use them in classes." Molly Kocour, former chair of the Newspaper Readership Advisory Board for Student Senate and Lawrence graduate student, said she thought it was a great way to educate students and keep them up to date on what's going on both locally and nationally, as well as providing a cheaper alternative to buying a newspaper subscription. Nick Sterner, former student body president, and Shawnee senior, said that in the summer, students are much more detached than in the fall and spring semesters. CENTRAL SCHOOL CENTRAL SCHOOL Kensan file photo Student Senate increased funds for the Newspaper Readership Program so it can continue during the summer. This is the first summer it has been available. "If we promote it a little, I think it will turn into something students will use," Sterner said. "I think it's going to be a good little program." Molly Bauer, Palatine, III. senior, just recently realized the papers were being offered during the summer semester. "I thought it was a good idea," Bauer said, "so people know what's going on around here." Bret Brown, Shawnee Junior, is also pleased with the new development. "Actually, I feel good about it," Brown said. "I read the paper three to four times a week." Hinshaw said that he and some representatives from his company would visit the campus on June 15 and 16 to help promote the summer program and offer help to those who might not know how to use the machines.

Our family is not complete without him and he will remain in our hearts and prayers forever. I want to share with everyone that approximately 25 KU friends came in for Joe's wake and funeral. They brought pictures and made posters at our home. Each of them embraced Joe's brothers, his dad, and myself, and shared with all of us their fond memories of Joe.

Their willingness to help us whether it was cleaning up, making posters, sharing memories, crying with us or giving us all a lot of hugs and kisses, was so amazing I can't even put it into words. I wish I could tell each of their parents what wonderful children they have. They can be extremely proud of their children for their warmth and loving sensitivity. I can certainly understand why Joe loved them all so very much. KU can be proud to have these young people at their school. I think Joe would want all his friends from home and KU to take pride in their schoolwork, take time to enjoy each other and their lives, and remember that those little acts of kindness and a simple smile can mean so much.

The 2006 summer semester marks the first summer in which the Student Newspaper Readership Program will be offered. Mark Hinshaw, regional marketing manager for USA Today, said that this was an idea that has been in the works for a while, and is finally being implemented this summer. There will be eight operating klosks in high-traffic areas determined by the Student Senate around campus: Green Hall, Learned Hall, Fraser Hall, Watson Library, Anschutz Library, Summerfield Hall and two at the Kansas Union. Andrew Payne, Student Senate executive committee chair and Garden City senior, said that this summer will serve as a test run to see if the program is as successful during the summer as it is during the fall and spring semesters. "We're hoping there's as much of a demand," Payne said. "We're anticipating there will be." - The New York Times, USA Today, The Kansas City Star and the Lawrence Journal-World — for students at the cost of $5 per student per semester, which is included in the student fees. Students swipe their KUUD card in the machine and then take whichever papers they want to read. "It helps with students' knowledge of current events," Payne said. "Teachers also use them in classes!" The funding for the program's summer expansion is being provided by funds leftover from the fee that students paid each fall and spring semester since 2001, the first year of the program. According to Payne, the total amount spent on the program in 2005 was $160,000. Hinshaw said the summer program should cost around $11,000. Molly Kocour, former chair of the Newspaper Readership Advisory Board for Student Senate and Lawrence graduate student, said she thought it was a great way to educate students and keep them up to date on what's going on both locally and nationally, as well as providing a cheaper alternative to buying a newspaper subscription. Nick Sterner, former student body president, and Shawnee senior, said that in the summer, students are much more detached than in the fall and spring semesters. BUS TICKET BOXES PASSENGER TICKET BOXES Kansan file photo Student Senate increased funds for the Newspaper Readership Program so it can continue during the summer. This is the first summer it has been available. "If we promote it a little, I think it will turn into something students will use," Sterner said. "I think it's going to be a good little program." Molly Bauer, Palatine, Ill. senior, just recently realized the papers were being offered during the summer semester. "I thought it was a good idea," Bauer said, "so people know what's going on around here." Bret Brown, Shawnee Junior, is also pleased with the new development. "Actually, I feel good about it," Brown said. "I read the paper three to four times a week." Hinshaw said that he and some representatives from his company would visit the campus on June 15 and 16 to help promote the summer program and offer help to those who might not know how to use the machines. —Edited by Adrienne Bommarito FAMILY SUES LANDLORDS Incident at "party house" led to major injuries to student BY DANI HURST dhurst@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER The landlords of a Lawrence house where a University of Kansas freshman fell from a second-story landing and suffered major injuries in 2004 are being sued by the girl's family.

BROOKS CITY CROWD OVERCOMES TRAFFIC BY TRAVIS ROBINETT trobinett@kansan.com KANSAN SENIOR STAFF WRITER Westbound Clinton Parkway turned into a parking lot with a tailgate party Thursday afternoon, the first day of the 2006 Wakarusa Music Festival. That didn't stall the fun for the rest of the festival though. Vehicles jammed the two-lane street all the way from Wakaraus Boulevard to the festival's entrance, taking up to five hours to move through it all. People stepped out of their cars to pass the time by playing Hacky Sack, throwing footballs and Frisbees, riding long-boards down the deserted eastbound lane, drinking beer and anything else they could to distract them from the trying situation. sat on the street's curb, taking in the hot sun with a cold beer in his hand, something he called a necessity. "I'm just dealing with it," he said. "I knew there would be a wait, not this long though." Meghan McRilhey from Boulder, Colo., said the traffic made sense based on her previous experiences. "It's typical of any festival," she said. "I have friends who've waited up to 32 hours to get in." Nearly everyone kept a good attitude, even the ones having extra trouble with the traffic, like Dave Mills from Nederland, Colo. His car stalled at the foot of a hill, so he had to gather people to help push his car when the line moved. Mills didn't complain, except about the heat. I cannot except about "it's hot," he said, "but not too bad." Now he said, but I don't know how he said. Cole Pranger from Fayetteville, Ark., was one of the people who helped Mills push the car. He said he did it in the spirit of the festival. "Wakarusa is all about helping people," he said. Other stories of strife include one from Al Sullivan, a Toledo, Ohio, resident. She was near the front of the line with her friends when their car's gas gauge passed the empty line. She was forced to walk with a gas can to the gas station on the corner of Wakarusa Boulevard and Clinton Parkway, filling it up at the station. "The walk wasn't too bad," she said. "At least I've got a cigarette, but it's damn hot out here." Although the wait was slightly enjoyable for many, it was enduring for Jeff Simcox and his daughter Elise from Lockport, Ill. poll, in "I demand that your chief of police get fired," Simcox said jokingly. "Wrigley Field holds 38,000 people and you can be in and out in 30 minutes. With all the jayhawk games, this town should be use to crowds like this." The two were frustrated with the wait because they arrived at 11 a.m. They said they thought there would be plenty of time to set up camp and see one of their favorite bands, Wood Box Gang, which took the stage about five and half hours later. They said they weren't sure whether they would make it. "Thank God I peed at Wal-Mart before I came," he said. As much of a party as the traffic jammed seemed to be, it was merely a mild get-together compared to the atmosphere inside the festival. spare me the rest is the rest. "The great thing is you can camp out as much as you want and see shows whenever you want, there's always something going on," Brandon Schaffer, Hays junior, said. "It was nutty." One of the most popular spots of the festival was "shakedown street," where vendors set up their shops. Schaffer said it was also a spot for drug deals. "Wakarusa is the easiest time to get anything you want drug wise," he said. He said people would come up to him as he walked through the grounds and offer him "doses, chocolates, x and nuggets" etuphemisms for acid, mushrooms, ecstacy and marijuana. Even though he saw police officers, one time with night vision goggles, he was not discouraged from smoking marjiana wherever and whenever he wanted to "I still had a solid time and had no problems with the law enforcement, maybe it's because I'm not a hippie," Schaffer said. because I'm not a mugel.

Near the tline off the intersection of Crazy Lane and Fourth streets at Campground One were two familiar cars and several tents. Earlier in the day, our friends waited in a queue of cars for seven hours to stake our claim on the vast field of withered grass and dirt. Cars from as far as New Jersey formed a grid of makeshift roadways. Anyone from a solo festivalgoer in a pup tent next to a Subaru Outback, to a flock of hippies complete with Volkswagon busses huddled under crudely constructed sunshades, composed the thousands of campsites at the Wakarusa Music Festival. Music coming from surrounding campsites was slightly drowned out by the distant sounds from stages that were blocks away. As some people slept in preparation for a long next day, others roamed the campground selling a vast array of drugs to plenty of eager and experienced buyers. Occasionally fireworks or a wild scream pierced air and brought the masses to attention. This happened all weekend long. It's a way of life for some people. An entire subculture dedicated to traveling from festival to festival for as much of the year as they can. Aged hippies from generations past mingle with a new breed of youth who embrace the lifestyle with every penny of their disposable incomes. Everyone is there for one reason; to have fun. There is no better excuse to go camping with your friends. The atmosphere bursts with energy and beams of love. Thousands and thousands of people, many of them drinking excessively or experimenting with mind-blowing cocktails of drugs living a relatively safe and orderly environment. It's amazing chaos doesn't break loose on the hour. But with so many people trying to live outside for four days without all the accommodations of modern society, it gets messy. One of the worst things about festivals are the piles of trash we leave behind. When a show ends everyone gets up and leaves, not always taking with them what they brought, expecting someone else to clean up their mess. The number of cigarette butts littering the ground rivals the number of stars in the sky. Why are we OK with this? Something with such magnificent drawing power as a music festival should take it upon itself to spread a message of environmental awareness. If we keep mindlessly trashing our planet, we won't be having music festivals for much longer. I can't say I'm innocent of absentmindedly littering, but I try hard not to. I pocket my cigarette butts. Music festivals are growing bigger and bigger every year. And as they grow it would be wise to do more to encourage environmental stewardship, and conditioning festivalgoers to be more aware of the impact we all have on our environment. If everybody were to make a point just to clean up their own mess, wed be on the right path. We can keep having these wonderful, crazy events for years to come if we keep one thing in mind: leave only your footprints.

A block-long Wakarusa Music Festival homage to the Grateful Dead, where vendors were peddling "bacco" pipes and purses; some were selling "products" of another variety. At first glance, it wouldn't seem like the most family-friendly venue. Yet tucked away in the farthest parking lot west, somewhere between Stage 3 and Topeka, were families using skewers and playing Frisbee, enduring four days of Kansas heat while trying to spend some quality time with the family. Marsha and Tony Nicholson arrived early Friday morning from Chicago, with their 2-year old daughter Tia. This was their first time attending the festival. They sold iced coffee out of their tent, and went into Lawrence to soak up the atmosphere. They said that the festival designated an area specifically for families. "God has provided us with a pleasant experience so far," Tony said. Jason and Allison Meredith, of Des Moines, Iowa, traveled for almost four hours with their children. Jason said that he had attended various music festivals, and Wakarusa did a good job of accommodating for families. The family camping area had its own bathroom and water area. Buses from the venue gates to the campground ran around the clock. While the families were secluded from the venue, it was still possible to hear noise from the stages. Ed Pulver, who was there with his wife Diana to see the show with their grandchildren, said the overall operation could have done a better job of keeping families and the rest of the fans separated. They said that families in the camping area were interacting with one another, and that their grandchildren had become friendly with children of other families. Despite the carnival nature of the festival and the drug culture that surrounds it, families didn't express major worries about their children being tainted by the atmosphere. "Sometimes I worry about people that are mean or bigoted," Mary McNamara said. She said that most fans weren't overt about their drug use, and her children were young enough that they weren't completely aware of the drugs.

Jay Rosendahl was one of them. BY ADRIENNE BOMMARITO abommarito@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER Trying to cool down from the 90 degree heat, Jay Rosendahl stood inside his tent showcasing and informing people about his rock, gem and jewelry collection and jewelry from his common-law wife, Carrie. All the way from San Diego, Calif., Rosendahl drove to Lawrence for the Wakarusa Music Festival. Not only did he come to take part in the festivities, but Rosendahl sells rocks, gems and jewelry across the nation. He said he constantly attends gem and mineral shows, along with concert festivals such as Wakarusa. mosa franklisa. Rosendahl became passionate about rocks and gems when someone gave him his first crystal when he was 18 years old. From then on, he said he was hooked. Then then on, he said he was right. He started collecting rocks and gems, and filled many cardboard boxes with them. He didn't know what to do with all of his rocks and gems, but soon knew the answer. "Sell them," Rosendahl said. "It's like finding homes for puppies." homing homes for puppies. Rosendahl started his rock business in a parking lot, selling directly out of a briefcase. Now, he constantly travels with Carrie — whose last name he asked to keep anonymous — selling his rocks and gems, and her jewelry. Rosendahl said he likes the theory or a first-name basis, instead of a last name. He compared his theory to those who don't use a last name, such as Madonna. He thinks it's a common theory among festival goers. 'Most people don't use last names because it shows lineage. We don't care where people come from." Rosendahl said. In addition to collecting and selling rocks and gems, he makes his own jewelry. Rosendahl uses a peyote stitch, which creates a flat piece of bead work, for all of his jewelry. He wears his jewelry around his dreadlocks, which he has had for nine and a half years. Hanging inside of his tent were blue, white, red, green and yellow flags, known as prayer Tibetan Flags. The same Sanskrit, an ancient Indic language, of prayers for peace is printed on each flag. The theory behind the flags is as their threads fall apart, the wind takes them away and a person's prayers come true. Rosendahl says he doesn't wholly believe in one religion, but takes different things from each of them. However, there is one thing that he doesn't agree with, and that is the cross. He said he would rather remember Christ as a teacher and not a martyr who was killed. "I don't remember Bob Martey as an infected foot, why would I want to remember Christ with death," he said. Rosendahl's rock, gem and jewelry collection contains various pieces from around the world. His prices range from 25 cents to $1,000. All are made of different materials, with different shapes and sizes. The cobalt calcite stone normally changes from a gray color to blue when the stone absorbs light, however Rosendahl had a few that turned a "Barbie Pink" instead, for unknown reasons. "That's what I like about rocks. If you don't know what it is, then it's just a rock, but when you find out, you're like whoa! That's cool." - Edited by Janiece Gaston P --- (above) Skyler Long, of Denver, checks out one of the many glass pipes for sale at Wakarusa Thursday night.

Seniors Sheldon Battle, Charisse Bacchus, Cameron Schwehr and Denita Young and sophomores Egor Agafonov and Paul Hefferon did exactly that. "Overall, we did very well," Bacchus said. "People did things they weren't expected to do. It shows that hard work pays off." Battle became an All-American for the sixth time by qualifying in shot put, hammer throw and weight throw at different points through out his two-year career at KU. His throw of 64 feet 9 1/4 inches in the shot put placed him fifth in this year's outdoor championships.

Bacchus earned All-America status this past spring at the indoor championships. honesty, it's not quite the thrill I thought it would be, maybe it hasn't sunk in yet," Hefferon said. "I hold myself to a really high standard, I thought of a million things I could have done better after the race." Young concluded her career at KU as an All-American with a throw of 158 feet 7 inches in the javelin. This honor was the second for Young, her first coming at the 2001 outdoor championships as a member of the University of Tennessee Track and Field Team.

BY JACK WEINSTEIN jweinstein@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER The Big 12 Conference basketball tournaments will return to Kansas City, Mo., in 2008 after a two-year layoff. Last year's tournament was in Dallas and this season's tournament will be in Oklahoma City. Kansas City was the permanent home for the Big 8 Conference tournaments before it expanded to the Big 12 after the 1996 season. It was the host for the six Big 12 tournaments. Many in Kansas City and Lawrence are pleased to see the tournament return to the area. Kansas City Mayor Kay Barnes is among the supporters. "I'm very excited about the Big 12 tournament returning to Kansas City in 2008." Barnes said by phone from her office in Kansas City. "It's going to be great to have the women and men playing at wonderful arenas within easy walking distance from one another with a great entertainment district in between. It's going to be a terrific Big 12 festival." Jim Marchiony, Kansas associate athletics director, said the athletics department is delighted the tournaments are returning to Kansas City. He also said the department thought that Kansas City should be the permanent home for the conference tournament. "I think if you polled the coaches in the league, they would tell you the same," Marchiony said. "Kansas City is a terrific site for the Big 12. The fan support is great, the city really gets behind the tournament. Dallas was a good host city, but there wasn't as much fan support." Bob Burda, associate Big 12 conference commissioner, echoed similar sentiments to Marchiony's. It's going to be great to have the women and men playing at wonderful arenas within easy walking distance from one another with a great entertainment district in between. It's going to be a terrific Big 12 festival. KAY BARNES Kansas City Mayor "Dallas is a pro-sports market," Burda said. "There's no rich history of hosting collegiate athletic events. Kansas City has a rich tradition of hosting big time college events." Burda said making Kansas City the permanent home for the Big 12 tournament was a possibility. The conference will take a wait-and-see attitude until after the tournament to gauge how the new Sprint Center holds the event. Conference athletics directors and university presidents would then vote on whether to make Kansas City the permanent location. The tournament can economically benefit the city in which it's held, because of revenue produced in hotels and restaurants by people from areas outside of Kansas City. A spokesperson from the mayor's office said he thought that the tournament made a $15 million impact on the local economy. The men's tournament will be held at the Spir Center, scheduled to open in October 2007. The women will play at Municipal Auditorium. — Edited by Adrienne Bommarito 14 THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN WEDNESDAY,JUNE 14,2006 SPORTS Go to Kansan.com for more great offers from these advertisers CAMPUS Coupons brought to you by THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN KANSAN.COM FREE Bagel & Cream Cheese W/ Purchase of Bagel & Cream Cheese Limit One Exp. 7/14/06 99¢ Medium Iced Coffee Any Flavor * Limit One Exp. 7/14/06 Apartments & Townhomes Aberdeen Lease now and get $500 FREE RENT when you sign 1 year lease, Limited Time Offer.

The boys, ranging in age from 8 to 19, listened to Self speak about having a good time and following the rules. Self's annual summer camp, kicked off Sunday and runs through Thursday at 16 gyms throughout Lawrence. gyms through Even though the campers can require as much effort to coach as his Jayhawks, he said both were easy. "The challenges with some young campers is they want to try to do what's right, but physically they can't quite do it yet," Self said. "The challenge with our players is that they can do it, but sometimes they won't do it the exact way a coach would expect them to do it. For one week, I'd say the campers are easier to coach, but if you had the campers for a whole year, you may change your mind about that." whenever they get a chance to actually see us and communicate with us, it's good," Robinson said. "They're open, Some kids their age think they know it all, but they're open to what we have to say and they respond well to us." Junior guard Russell Robinson said the campers were receptive to what the players had to say. Self said desire was a big part of why the kids were there. "They're big fans, they listen, they watch us all the time and "The reason kids come to camp is they want to be around ball," Self said. "Hopefully they want to be coached and be corrected." Asked to describe his teaching style with the campers, Sophomore forward Julian Wright said his style had two sides. "I kind of have a balance between being serious and joking with the kids," Wright said. "You can't be too serious, sometimes kids won't listen. If you joke too much they won't take you seriously. I think that's key in terms of helping kids out, You try to have a little fun, laugh, crack a joke or two, but also be serious when it's time to be serious. A fan favorite, Wright gets specials requests from the campers. "Everyone wants me to do a 360 dunk," he said. Wright said he enjoyed both putting on a show for the kids and helping them become better basketball players. Wright said he enjoyed working with the campers. "I like it," he said. "It's a chance to give back and give advice."

DAVIS III fdavis@kansan.com As I've watched the NBA playoffs, six months and counting, I got to thinking about the prospects of an NBA franchise coming to Kansas City, Mo. Then, after talking with my Russian friend, "Drago Gorbachev," about the NHL playoffs, the notion of an NHL franchise crept into my mind. The reason I'm pondering another professional franchise making its way to the City of Fountains is because of the Sprint Center. The Sprint Center, is expected to "revitalize" Kansas City. The Big Fone, a nickname sure to take off, will almost certainly bring a new team to the area. It's unlikely that a team will be in place by the time the Big Fone opens in the Fall of 2007, but one will come. So that's why I - along with my friend Drago - will figure out what is the best choice for the Kansas City Metro area. I think by 2020, according to some mad social scientist Hugh Downs, Lawrence will be a part of the Kansas City Metro I'll cut right to the chase, I'm a hoops guy. I love college basketball, I really like the NBA and I'm in a WNBA fantasy league. (The "We Love Kendra Weckers" are struggling right now). I'm all for the NBA calling Kansas City home again. Again? For those of you born post-1985, the Kings resided in K.C. for 13 years before moving to Sac-Town. My boy Drago though, well, if you couldn't already tell by the name, stereotypes be damned, he's a hockey guy. In his Eastern European drawl, he tells me, "Fred, vat are you tinking? Ze NHL would crush de NBA!" In a one-on-one fist fight, sure, maybe. But I think the entourage factor gives the NBA a slight edge. While NHL tough guy Tie Domi may knock out Detroit Pistons strongman Ben Wallace initially, Ben's barber, his 7th grade best friend and the woman who braids his hair brandishing a bag of nickels would finally get the last laugh. COMBAT EDGE – NBA. Drago says, "Okay, okay, I'vegdat to de hoopers, but de hockeyplayers look better den de hoopers." No contest. When it comes to who looks better, its Communist Bloc versus Hip-Hop. Missing Fronts versus Gold Fronts. Cold Streams versus Bling-Bling. The NBA wins this in a landslide. With the NBAs's new dress code, players looked sharp while still maintaining that urban vibe. Hockey players, sure some of them dress nice, but missing teeth? Grills may not be for everybody, but at least they're something. APPEARANCE EDGE - NBA Drago is very disheartened after losing that argument. His once proud, "I just killed Apollo Creed" moment is now swinging wildly as he looks for any edge the NHL might have. Wearily, he mumbles, "Ze hockey iz for everybody, ze people here in de Midwest vill love ze game and its speed and action, no?" Okay, Drago, I'll give you that. The speed and action of hockey is unlike any other sport. Guys flying around on skates a la Nancy Kerrigan, pre-Jeff Gilooly, smashing each other into the boards and the fights. Yes, the fights. No team sport has fights. Actually... The NBA does have fights. Though they not only fight each other in the NBA, they fight the fans. You're sitting in the Big Fone and you get this unmistakable urge to pelt Kobe Bryant with a hot dog. Imagine the melee that would ensue. Of course you'd get your brains beat out, but you'd be all over SportsCenter. Hockey can't say that. Drago is now ecstatic about the idea of the NBA coming to Kansas City, and so am I.

Led by a group of determined seniors who ignored outside expectations, Kansas tied for fifth out of 10 teams in the conference during the regular season, won the Big 12 Championship and earned a bid to the Corvallis, Ore., Regional. “If you would have told me earlier in the year that Kansas University was going to win the Big 12 tournament, I wouldn't have laughed at you, but I probably wouldn't have believed you,” senior outfielder Matt Baty said. “To see where the program has come in the four years and to be a part of it and then go out with a bang has been an absolute privilege.” PRESEASON The Jayhawks' triumphant season was unanticipated by some in the Big 12 before the season began. On Jan. 24, Big 12 coaches released their preseason poll and picked Kansas to tie for eighth place in the conference. "Kansas baseball has been so bad for the last 10 years, if I was a person that decided the poll, I wouldn't put us up there either," Baty said. NON-CONFERENCE SCHEDULE Kansas' non-conference schedule included five teams that reached the NCAA tournament in 2005 - Stanford, Southern California, Clemson, Wichita State and Creighton. Stanford was the first of these five that Kansas faced and the Jayhawks took the series, winning the first two games of the three-game set. Senior outfielder Gus Milner and senior closer Don Czzy were recognized for their efforts in the series. Milner was named Co-National Player of the Week by Collegiate Baseball Insider.com and Big 12 Player of the Week, while Czzy was named Big 12 Pitcher of the week. Overall, Kansas went 5-5 against non-conference opponents that reached the 2005 NCAA tournament. In addition, five of Kansas' non-conference foes - Clemson, Vanderbilt, San Diego, Wichita State and Stanford - reached the NCAA tournament in 2006. Clemson was the overall No.1 seed and is in the College World Series in Omaha, Neb. Kansas went 6-5 against non-conference opponents that reached this year's NCAA tournament. 42 Kansan file photo CONFERENCE SCHEDULE Senior infielder Jares Schweitzer covers second base as Southeast Missouri State senior outfielder Chris Gibson slides in during the Jayhawks game against the Redhawks on April 25 in Kansas City, Kan. Kansas finished the season with a 43-25 record, a Big 12 Tournament championship and a trip to the NCAA tournament for the first time since 1994. Kansas began conference play against three of the five Big 12 teams that reached the 2005 NCAA tournament - Baylor, Nebraska and Missouri - in consecutive weekends. Kansas went 1-4 in its first five Big 12 games, but a victory in the final game of the Nebraska series gave the team momentum that it carried throughout the remainder of the season. Beginning with that victory, Kansas went 8-5 in its next 13 conference games and 15-6 overall. The Jayhawks then hit a roadblock that threatened to end their season prematurely. The next two weekends, Kansas faced the two remaining Big 12 teams that reached the 2005 NCAA tournament - Oklahoma and Texas. Kansas salvaged the Oklahoma series with a Sunday victory, but was swept by Texas. In the Jayhawk Classic the following weekend, Kansas lost back-toback games to Northern Colorado. Kansas completed the regular season strong at home, though, sweeping Texas A&M in three games. After facing six Big 12 teams that would make the 2006 NCAA tournament, the Jayhawks headed into the Big 12 Championship tournament with a full head of steam. BIG 12 CHAMPIONSHIP Nick allowed only three hits in 5.1 innings, but his older brother Don had to come in with Nebraska threatening to steal the victory. As he'd done all season, Don sealed the 9-7 victory in Kansas with a save. The Jayhawks opened the tournament with a 7-2 victory against the Sooners and moved on to beat Oklahoma State 11-6. With a trip to the championship game on the line, Kansas took on Missouri next, which was also 2-0 in the tournament. The Jayhawks overcame a late-inning surge by the Tigers to win 4-3 and prepared to play Nebraska for the Big 12 Championship. Kansas dominated Nebraska for most of the game behind the strong pitching of freshman lefty Nick Czyz and led 8-2 at one point. Baty earned Big 12 Championship Tournament MVP honors after hitting .421 with two home runs, three RBI and five runs. Sophomores Erik Morrison and Ryne Price were named to the All-Tournament team along with Baty. NCAA TOURNAMENT "It was pretty awesome because, with my injury, I was told that I wasn't going to be playing at all the rest of the year," said Baty, who suffered a lacerated spleen and kidney in Kansas' fourth weekend of action. "To be able to come back and be player of the tournament, that's just an unbelievable accomplishment. But it's not an individual award, it's a KU baseball award." Kansas was rewarded for its Big 12 title with a No. 2 seed in the Corvallis Regional, hosted by Oregon State, and the Jayhawks headed into their first NCAA regional in 12 years on a seven-game win streak. Hawaii was the first opponent Kansas faced in the regional and the Jayhawks pulled themselves out of an early 5-0 hole to win 9-6. Senior infielder Jared Schweitzer led the Jayhawks on offense, hitting for the cycle, and Czyz came in to record his NCAA-leading 19th save. The victory would be Kansas' only of the regional as it fell to Oregon State in its next game 11-3 and in a rematch with Hawaii 9-5. Schweitzer was named to the Corvallis All-Regional Team after batting .583 with two home runs, four runs and four RBI. Oregon State ultimately won the regional and is in the College World Series. Kansas (43-25) ended the 2006 season with the second-most wins in school history and put itself back on the national scene for the first time in more than a decade. "I always dreamed of being a part of something special," Baty said. "That's the reason why I chose KU." POSTSEASON Even with its 2006 season in the books, Kansas continued to make headlines. Don Czyz, whose 19 saves are still the most in the nation, was recognized as a Louisville Slugger First Team All-American, a College Baseball Foundation All-American and the NCBWA Stopper of the Year. "He's a great young man and he's worked his tail off," coach Price said. "I really believe that if he stays healthy,he'll pitch in the big leagues some day." Don Czyz, junior left-hander Sean Land, Milner, senior shortstop Ritchie Price, Schweitzer and senior right-hander Kodiak Quick were all selected in the 2006 MLB Amateur Draft and senior right-hander Ricky Fairchild was signed to a free agent contract. "To have seven players sign pro contracts in a year - which is the most in school history - I think it makes a statement that Kansas is on the rise and we're a legitimate Top 25 program," coach Price said. When it came All-Big 12 selection time, six Jayhawks received recognition. Czyz and Schweitzer were named All-Big 12 First Team. Milner, Ritchie Price and sophomore outfielder John Allman were named All-Big 12 Second Team. Quick was an All-Big 12 Honorable Mention. - Edited by Erick R.

Some members of the Board are concerned that consolidating these accounts would give the University control over parts of the Kansan that are now independent from University governance. "Basically, the University and the state would govern our money," said Jonathan Kealing, Kansan editor for Fall 2006. "They would cut our check and be our banker." Right now, the discussions between the Kansan and the University are focused solely on how to make the Kansan operate within the University, state and federal fiscal financial regulations, said Ann Brill, dean of the School of Journalism. During Monday's meeting, the Board came to a consensus to suggest that the University not consolidate the accounts, according to the meeting's minutes. Kealing also added that this shift would limit the Kansan's ability to interact with advertisers and pursue legal actions, because the state, not the Kansan, would decide how the money is spent. "We wouldn't be able to do business," Kealing said. But the Board is not in a position right now to know exactly what to do, said Rick Musser, chairman of the Kansan board. Currently, the Kansan has two bank accounts: A student organization account with the University, and another outside account at a Lawrence bank. Consolidating these accounts would also move them from three interest-bearing accounts to one non-interest bearing account, meaning the Kansan would lose between $1,000 to $2,000 per year as a result of lost interest, Kealing said. ern its money, as long as all funds are reported. Specific laws also allow student publications to independently gov- Kansas law 76-720 states that student publications published regularly since July 1, 1955, are able to hold accounts in local banks outside of the University. The Kansan has published five days a week during the fall and spring semesters since Jan. 16, 1912. However, it's not uncommon for a university to manage the funds of a student newspaper, said Mike Hiestand, legal adviser for the Student Press Law Center, a non-profit organization based in Arlington, Va. But these days, it's common practice for universities to divest themselves from a student-run media, in order to shed themselves of any liability, he said. It's not common practice for independent student publications, such as the Kansan, to have its funds controlled by a university, he said. "That's the nature of being independent," Hiestand said. of student media finds,he said. Only in cases where it's believed the money has been mismanaged do universities step in and take control But that's not the case with the Kansan. "I don't want to create concerns that the Kansan was mismanaging money," said Diane Goddard, University comptroller and associate vice provost. Part of the reasoning for the shift were concerns about payroll, which have since been resolved, Goddard said. She added that any number of solutions to this situation are viable, as long as payroll runs through the University. "Anything can be facilitated from a comproller's point-of-view," she said. "But a decision needs to be made." Another reason for the shift deals with the specific mission of the Kansan. According to article two of the Constitution of the Kansan, the purpose of the Kansan is to "serve as the official newspaper of the student body of the University of Kansas and as the laboratory newspaper of the William Allen White School of Journalism and Mass Communications." Because the Kansan is both an independent newspaper and a laboratory for the School of Journalism. "it allows you to look at it from many different ways," Goddard said. However, a revision to the constitution is currently under review by Chancellor Robert Hemenway that would essentially remove the "laboratory" designation from the document, said Malcolm Gibson, general manager of the Kansan. Another concern raised was issues relating to the First Amendment, Musser said. Brill, a "staunch defender of the First Amendment," said that the School of Journalism has a responsibility not only to educate its students about the skills and ethical practices of journalism, but also making sure students understand the business and financial aspects of journalism. And Hiestand agrees that shifting money to a university account isn't a direct violation of the First Amendment. "But it certainly opens the door to allow the school to manipulate content," he said.

The report was the third that has been made to the Lawrence Police Department since 2004. According to the police department's media release, it is investigating the case with the possibility that all three could be related. The media release stated that on June 13, an unidentified male entered the apartment of a 21-year-old female and sexually assaulted her. In each case the suspect was described as a 6 foot, white male in his 20s, with a slim build. He has reportedly been armed during each attack. Alix Fried, 2006 graduate who still lives in Lawrence, said that any time a rape case is reported, it raises awareness. "It comes to the surface when there's a public instance that happened," she said. Fried said that she makes sure to look for anything suspicious when she is out at night. No arrests have been made, but the police department is hopeful that it can identify the suspect. "We will not stop until we do;" Sgt. Dan Ward said. Ward said that there is a possibility that other victims have not yet come forward, but the police department has significant evidence that the cases are related. He said it was important to educate people that this is a serious crime and that it is important for people to use precautionary measures. He said it will probably take a lot of manpower and forensic technology to identify the suspect, however. Laura Seger, graduate student and Lawrence resident, said she is cautious when she is out. "I try to be alert of my surroundings," Seger said. The media release asked that anyone with information about these three crimes call the Lawrence Police Department Detective Division at 830-7430 or the Tips Hot Line at 843-TIPS. It also prompted citizens to dial 911 if they notice any suspicious activity. - Edited by Janiece Gatson safety tips At Home: Use Dead bolts; window locks; peep holes; timers for lights, radio, TV and outside security lights. Never open a door for strangers; require ID of service or repair people. Plan several escape routes from your home. If you are a single woman, use only initials for mailboxes and in the phone book. Pretend there are others at home, if someone calls. If you come home and something looks wrong or different, do not enter; go to a safe place and call the police. On the Street: Walk with others. Vary routines; travel different ways at different times. Know where the safe places are; businesses that are open late, homes where people are up late, blue phones on the KU campus, etc. If a situation feels wrong, get away fast. - Stay away from bushes and parked cars; walk in the center of the sidewalk. In Your Car: Always lock the doors when you are in a car and when you leave it, even if only for a short time. Park near lights at night Have your keys in your hand when leaving a building, heading to your car, or leaving your car to enter a building. Drive with windows mostly closed. Keep car in good working order and keep gas tank at least 1/4 full. In case of a breakdown, stay in the locked car if assistance is offered, request that police be called.

The move is scheduled to be completed within the next few months. TRAINOX INTERNATIONAL Ralph V. Oliver, Chief/Director for the Public Safety Office, said the current building, Carruth-O'Leary Hall, is not big enough to fit all of the needs of the department. The Public Safety Office will occupy what was the Printing Services building, on Bob Billings Parkway and Crestline Drive on west campus. Oliver said that he approached the Provost office approximately five years ago with the hopes that Public Safety could relocate. He said that it was simply a matter of Oliver said the move was about needing more room. reach room" where both private enterprises and members of the public can make presentations concerning matters that the office deals with. The current building The KU Public Safety Office has begun moving into its new offices in the former Printing Ser Services building. "There's more space than there is here," Oliver said. Joshua Bickol/KANSAN good timing when the Printing building closed. Oliver said that the new building would accommodate a variety of needs that Carruth-O'Leary could not meet. The new building will have interview rooms for suspects, an evidence room, and an equipment room. He also said it would have a "community out- The new Public Safety Office will include interview and evidence rooms.The Office will be more accessible to citizens at night and have a monitored lobby. has no space for training the office's employees. Oliver said that the new building would be more accessible during later hours. "We work 24 hours a day," Oliver said. One new amenity that members of the office are excited about is not so obvious, however. "The first thing that most people in the office are excited about is there N Bob Billings Pkwy KUPSO new location Crestline Dr. Iowa St. Joshua Bickel/KANSAN The new offices for the KU Public Safety Office will be located in the old Printing Services building, 2502 Westbrook Circle, just off of Bob Billings Parkway and Crestline Drive. is more parking," Oliver said. Carruth-O'Leary Hall has only one parking lot, which is designated for patrol cars. Visitors have to find parking that isn't directly associated with the building. Mark L. Reiske, R.A., Associate Director of Budget and Design Production, said that when the public has a problem late at night, it can be difficult to reach the office in Carruth-O'Leary. He said that in the new building, there will be a monitored lobby that will be open late, whereas citizens now have to call before they can be admitted into the office. He said that the department had to have all of its telecommunications, including servers, alarms and security cameras, running before a move could take place. "Until that's operational, they really can't move," he said. Reiske said that the new building would still be accessible to the public, even though it wouldn't be as centrally located on campus. The office will be along a bus route for students and there will be parking available for visitors. Oliver said that once the department decides on a precise date for the switch, they will begin to advertise through local media outlets. Also occupying the Printing Services building will be the department of entomology, according to Reiske. Carruth-O'Leary will eventually be torn down and replaced by a new facility that will house the School of Business, according to Reiske. No timetable has been set for that action. — Edited by Dani Hurst SunrisePlace 660 Gateway Ct. 2 & 4 BR Filling Up Fast!

College education Administrators at the University of Kansas would argue that the answer is "yes." The University's five-year tuition enhancement plan will enter its last year this fall, assuming it receives approval from the Board of Regents this week. The plan was designed to raise tuition in order to provide students with amenities worthy of the "best buy" reputation that the University has recently received, such as improved technology and more faculty. Elizabeth Spear, Kansas City, MO. senior, said that with some exceptions - like what she consideres an unnecessary logo change - students are getting what they pay for. "You get out of it what you put into it," Spear said. Prior to the inception of the five-year plan, the state provided the University with funding to make up for the difference between the school's tuition revenue and the total expenses spent by the University, according to Theresa Klinkenberg, Chief Business & Financial Planning Officer of the University. "State support was not growing as we had liked," Klinkenberg said. The state changed its funding model in 2001, using block grants and allowing the University to keep all of the money it generated from tuition, Klinkenberg said. The University formed an ad hoc committee to devise a way to handle the new budget system. The University was considered under funded in comparison with schools in its peer group - schools considered of similar size and academic standing — to the tune of approximately $50 million, according to the committee. Schools in the group included the University of Colorado, the University of Oklahoma and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. According to the University's Web site, "In April 2002, the committee recommended a plan to generate $43 million over five years for educational enhancements and $8.6 million in scholarships for students with unmet financial need as a result of the tuition increases on the Lawrence campus. The amount of the tuition enhancement is $16.50 per credit hour for each of five years." William L. Eakin, Vice Provost for Administration and Finance and assistant professor of history, said that during the first four years of the plan, the University hired approximately 70 faculty members, and authorized the hiring of 35 more this year. He also said that the University gave $5 million for technology each year, and $3 million for graduate teaching assistants' salaries. Faculty members are still unclear whether or not the Board of Regents will approve the fifth year. Eakin said that one of the main reasons the Regents may not approve the plan was because non-resident students paid more tuition that those from Kansas, and so the $16.50 hike effects them less proportionally. "We don't want to appear to be giving non-residents a better deal," Eakin said. in tution. "I think the amenities that are being improved don't directly affect me as a student," said Laura Musonye, Kenya senior. Not all students are excited about the rise in tuition. Musonye said that she thinks the increase will be more beneficial to students in the future. "I think the level of education is just the same," she said.

Danielle Tongier would have been a freshman this August. Fellow classmates Jessica Pierce and Andrew Harpstrite, along with their Spanish teacher Brett Carlson, were also killed. The 11 students on the trip had been spending the afternoon on the beach and swimming in the Pacific Ocean when a tidal wave came in and pulled them under the water. Carlson was on the beach at the time and instructed the students to get out of the water, but Tongier and Harpstrife couldn't get out. Carlson had gone into the water to help the students, but became engulfed in the water himself. Pierce, 17, was a licensed lifeguard and also tried to help the others, but drowned as well. Greg Cartwright, principal of Labette County High School in Alamont where the students attended, said two students were rescued from the water. He said the students described it as a perfect afternoon for swimming until an unexpected tidal wave came and continued to get worse. They were wading in water that came up to their chest, then the wave came in and they couldn't touch bottom. Robert Buddemer, senior scientist at Kansas Geological Survey, said people who visit unfamiliar areas can get caught in strong currants because of inexperience swimming in those types of water. Before surfers ever get into the ocean they sit on the beach and watch the water to see how and where it moves. Buddemer said swimmers need to do the same thing. "You need to know something about where you are and how the water reacts," he said. Tongier is remembered as a good person by Jay Vanmiddlesworth. Van- "She was very happy-go-lucky and always up-beat. Really a good student, the type you'd like to have in your classroom," he said. middlesworth taught Tongier and coached her in tennis. The students and Carlson traveled to Costa Rica on a cultural exchange trip. Carlson went on a similar trip during college and thought it would be interesting for the students. "He really liked Costa Rica and wanted the kids to experience it," Cartwright said. A memorial for Tongier, Pierce, Harpstrife and Carlson was held June 16 at 6 p.m. Tongier's funeral was on June 17. Cartwright said the community is dealing with the accident well, especially because the last body was found at the end of last week. "It was a terrible accident. We think everything has been recovered, so we can get on with it," he said. —Edited by Dani Hurst Flying High Chris Oberholtz/THE KANSAS CITY STAR Chris Oberholtz/THE KANSAS CITY STAR Dakota White, 8, of Exeland, Wis., takes to the mini ramp in a skate jam competition as he and other skaters gather at Verizon Wireless Amphitheater, in Bonner Springs, on Monday for the 2006 Vans Warped tour.

David Hover, Overland Park graduate, sifts through lines of computer code Thursday morning in a Mallott Hall physics lab. Hover, who graduated in May with a physics degree, is planning a trip to Thailand and a backpacking trip to the Pacific Crest Trail before heading to graduate school at the University of Wisconsin-Madison to study physics. "I was eating Thai food one day and decided I would go there," he said with a smile. Hover, a recent physics graduate, received the ticket after a layover he faced in Amsterdam last summer. He left Monday with his mother for a two-week vacation in Thailand. Joshua Bickel/KANSAN Hover became familiar with foreign countries early in his life. At 4 years old he moved with his family to Sydney, Australia, because of a job his father took. While there, Hover dealt with what he referred to as his "physical sob story." He spent one month in a wheelchair with casts on both legs to correct a problem he had with walking on his tip-toes. At the same time, he also had an eye-patch covering one 1076 2324 eye because he had a lazy-eye. Hover jokingly said that for entertainment, he wheeled in a circle over and over looking out of his lazy eye. All joking aside, the doctors were able to fix the eye problem, the casts were removed and Hover went on to play soccer on organized teams until his ninth grade year. Hover still plays soccer for fun, but now has to concentrate on his future. Hover will be joining the physics graduate program at the University of Wisconsin-Madison in August. He said the six-year Ph.D. program should give him enough time to decide exactly what he wants to do with his time-consuming major. Hover is excited about his new path, but anxious, as well. At Madison, he will be a teaching assistant for an entry-level physics course. He said that even though he was a physicist, he was still apprehensive about teaching, especially classes he took years ago. "Teaching kind of scares me. You have to know everything exactly," he said. ing the Pacific Crest Trail in Oregon.

Daniel K. Boyle, president of Dan Boyle & Associates, hosted the first of five public meetings at City Hall and a meeting at the Kansas Union last week to get a feel for how both the city and those affiliated with the University - students and faculty felt the two systems could be improved. After the study is completed, the project will go through two phases, Boyle said at the meetings. The first will be the "standard transit project," intended to make the overall transit situation in the city better. The second phase will see if it would be possible to intertwine both systems to function as one unit. Boyle said that while he was try- perienced problems with the current bus system.

Robbie Myles, Olathe senior, said that change was needed. Myles, who lived at Parkway Commons, Clinton Pkwy and Kasaold, last year, didn't own a car at the time and said he ex- him 30 minutes to catch a ride to campus, taking a bus from his apartment complex to SuperTarget, and then transferring to another bus to get to campus. He also said that he would have liked the buses to run later than they did. A lack of later running times was just one of the complaints expressed by meeting participants. Others included routing, accessibility for those with disabilities, timing for transfers, uncleanliness and both environmental and noise pollution. Lawrence Settles, Shawnee senior, who attended the meeting at City Hall, said he was happy that people were trying to improve the bus systems. "I'm an advocate for public transportation," he said. Boyle's firm specializes in public transportation, and has completed studies in other college towns. He did one study at the University of Nevada at Reno, and will be conducting another that will serve six universities in Greensboro, N.C. The current study began last week and is scheduled to end some time in November. -Edited by Dani Hurst The project will be completed in two phases.The first will make the overall transit situation in Lawrence better; the second will gauge whether it's possible to combine KU on Wheels and the Lawrence Transit System.

Fabrizi admitted Tuesday he had abused cocaine while in office and said he wanted to apologize "to all the people of the city" but had no plans to resign. The admission followed the inadvertent release of an FBI document in which an alleged drug dealer claimed an associate had a videotape of the mayor using cocaine. In a tearful speech to about 200 city employees and residents in City Council chambers Tuesday, Fabrizi said he had not used drugs in 18 months and had sought help for a drug addiction that he had hoped to handle privately. "I thought that these were personal, private matters to me and my family, that I could deal with these issues with my family and myself," Fabrizi said. "I now recognize my actions affected many others, and I want to apologize to my family, my friends, and all of the people of the city of Bridgeport for my actions, my past actions." Fabrizi, a Democrat who took office after former Mayor Joseph Ganim was convicted of corruption in 2003, said he hopes to move forward and continue running Connecticut's largest city. "I will do everything, and I mean everything I can, to redeem the respect and the support that you the employees of the city of Bridgeport, and of you my friends, and of you the great people of the city of Bridgeport," Fabrizi said. Many employees cheered while Fabrizi spoke, though there were some boos. He also said he stopped drinking alcohol four months ago. "I have put this personal struggle behind me and it has never, ever affected my job performance," Fabrizi said. "The tremendous progress Bridgeport has made over the past three years is a testament to that. Folks, my re- roborated, are typically filed under seal and apologized to Fabrizi for the release. Fabrizi first admitted he had used cocaine to the editorial board cord speaks for itself." "He needs help. If I was busted for something like that, I would lose my job." Cecil Young Bridgeport, Conn., Sheriff U. S. Attorney Kevin O'Connor said last week that Fabrizi was not a target of the drug investigation, which led to the FBI report being filed in court. He said FBI reports, which summarize statements made by witnesses but are not always cor- of the Connecticut Post, which reported the admission in Tuesday's editions. Fab rizi would not tell the Post how he obtained cocaine, but said he occasionally spent $20 or $40 to purchase it. The mayor offered to take periodic drug tests if anyone doubts he has stopped using cocaine. Bridgeport, a city of about 140,000 residents on Long Island Sound, has struggled with violent drug dealers who gave the city a reputation as the murder capital of the state in the 1990s before the homicide rate plummeted. Cecil Young, a city sheriff who listened to Fabrizi's address Tuesday, said the mayor had misled voters for nearly two years and should resign. "He needs help," Young said, adding that he wants proof that Fabrizi sought treatment from a licensed professional. "If I was busted for something like that, I would lose my job." Others were more forgiving. "I think he can continue on in his job as mayor as long as he's sought treatment," said Matthew Krol, a Bridgeport resident who works in a record store. "I think he should be given a second chance." SAFETY WILDFIRE RAGES ONWARD BY AMANDA LEE MYERS THE ASSOCIATED PRESS SEDONA, Ariz. — A 1,500-acre wildfire threatening northern Arizona's scenic Oak Creek Canyon was only 5 percent contained Tuesday as crews tried to stop it from reaching hundreds of homes clustered among dry manzanita and juniper trees. At least 11 helicopters and air tankers were available Tuesday to help ground crews, said Joe Reinarz, commander of the team fighting the fire. The fire started Sunday and forced the evacuation of about 400 homes and businesses in narrow Oak Creek Canyon and about 100 homes in the smaller canyons on the rugged north side of Sedona, a town about 90 miles north of Phoenix surrounded by red-hued cliffs that draw builders of expensive homes and thousands of tourists. Crews also were battling wildfires in Colorado, New Mexico and California. By Tuesday morning, officials said the Sedona fire was only about a half-mile from the edge of Slide Rock State Park and flames had crested Wilson Mountain, edging about 300 feet below the rim of Oak Creek Canyon in spots. If the fire burns down to the two-lane scenic highway along the canyon bottom, crews hope to make a stand there. Most homes are on the opposite side of the highway, Reinarz said. "We want to hang it up there as high as we can and let it grow low and slow," Reinarz said Tuesday. A high temperature of about 100 was forecast Tuesday for Sedona, with very low humidity and wind of 10 to 20 mph. In neighboring New Mexico, four fires started by lightning had burned more than 30,000 acres in the tinderdry Gila National Forest in the southwestern part of the state. The biggest had charred nearly 12,000 acres and threatened 150 homes in the Lake Roberts area. Residents were being allowed to return Tuesday, said fire information officer Brian Morris. "I'm a little apprehensive," said Sedona Mayor Pud Colquitt, one of the evacuees from Oak Creek Canyon. "It's a wait-and-see now." Authorities believe the blaze started in a camp used by transients. A 7,000-acre fire, northeast of Glenwood, N.M., in Catron County. prompted evacuations of about 30 cabins and campgrounds, Morris said. In southern Colorado, crews braced for more dry, windy weather Tuesday as they confronted a wildfire that exploded across 4,500 acres about 10 miles northeast of Fort Garland, triggering the evacuation of 270 homes in two counties. No houses had been destroyed. "We can't get out in front of this thing, it's moving like a freight train," fire information officer Steve Segin said. A California brush fire spread over 6,000 acres of hilly terrain in Los Padres National Forest. No houses were threatened but two sheds and three trailers were destroyed, U.S. Forest Service spokesman Joe Pasinato said. Wildfires have charred more than 3.1 million acres nationwide so far this year, well ahead of the average of about 900,000 acres by this time, the National Interagency Fire Center reported. Huge grass fires that swept Texas and Oklahoma this spring account for a large part of this year's acreage.

The University of Kansas is Hollywood's version of Universal Studios. Don't believe it? From films starring zombies, to soft-core porn, to nuclear attacks and the faux documentary that depicted what would have been had the South won the Civil War, Lawrence and the University have been the sites of many projects that have graced the silver screen. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 61 62 63 64 65 66 67 68 69 70 71 72 73 74 75 76 77 78 79 80 81 82 83 84 85 86 87 88 89 90 91 92 93 94 95 96 97 98 99 100 A scene from the IMAX film "Sea Monsters 3D" was shot at Dyche Hall, located just south of the Kansas Union, on campus last Thursday. The National Geographic film is one of a litany of feature films shot on campus or in Lawrence. Other feature films have dealt directly with the history of the city or University or have tied KU elements to certain parts of their plots. "Sea Monsters 3D" examines marine reptile life in the ocean while dinosaurs roamed the earth. Using half animation, and half live action reenactments, the film depicts the life of a dolichorhynchops, a short- necked plesiosaur. Producer Lisa Truitt explained exactly what the film is about. "The underwater story follows one marine reptile through her life," Truitt said. "Whenever her life in animation comes to a critical juncture, we cut to a reenactment of a real paleontological dig. What they find on the dig, you learn something and it dictates the direction that the story takes." One of those paleontological scenes was filmed on campus, but nearly the entire film was shot in Western Kansas including Monument Rock and Castle Rock, with the exception of one scene in Oklahoma. The Dyche Hall scene contains the lab work conducted after marine reptiles with neonatal bones were found without egg shells. The find suggested that those sea creatures gave live birth in the ocean as opposed to laying eggs. fossil discoveries during the 1920s. That particular discovery actually took place in South Dakota, but most of the finds highlighted throughout the movie took place in Western Kansas, including finds by the Sternberg Family of Hays, who were responsible for some significant "This is where it happened, this is where most of the finds were made," Truitt said. "Kansas was an inland sea during the Mesozoic period." During the Mesozoic period, the age of reptiles, 245 million to 65 million years ago, Kansas was under water as part of an ocean and did not rise above sea level until the late Cretaceous, the last stage of the Mesozoic period. The 40 minute full-length IMAX film is expected to hit screens nationwide in October 2007. "There's tremendous interest in this movie," Truitt said. "I know Kansas City is really excited about this." Prior to "Sea Monsters 3D" "Confederate States of America" was the last film to have been shot in Lawrence. Written and directed by University of Kansas theatre professor Kevin Willmott, CSA examined what life would have been like had the South won the Civil War. The satiric film, filmed from a British documentary point of view, was shot at the University's Oldfather Studios, 1621 W. Ninth St., and in Kansas City. It debuted in 2004. Willmott said Lawrence has a developing film community. "Lawrence has a growing film scene," Willmott said. "The film department is growing and the students coming out of the department are staying in the area and making films." Willmott said the experience of filming in Lawrence was great for his cast and crew. They were able to utilize many volunteers in the area. He said he was amazed at the types of professionals who lived in Lawrence, saying it was beneficial to them because they took advan- PETER D. LEE Willmott tage of their talents. Wilmott said there wasn't a better place for him and his crew to shoot CSA. "When you're making a low-budget film, or a no-budget film in our case, you have to look at your resources," he said. "Your resources determine where to shoot your film. For us, Lawrence was the best place." Judy Billings, vice president of the Chamber of Commerce, has been directly involved with films in Lawrence since the 1980s. She said that movies filmed in Lawrence were very beneficial to the city. "It's not about getting publicity for the town, but the economic impact it creates," Billings said. "Movie productions spend a huge amount of money while they're filming." Though many movies have been filmed in Lawrence, Billings said that not a whole lot of people knew that. She mentioned "The Day After", a film shot in Lawrence in 1981. Had it not been for a line in the movie, "This is Lawrence, Kan., is there anyone out there," no one would have known the movie was about Lawrence. Billings also highlighted another benefit to having movies filmed in Lawrence. Television star Michael Landon shot a film in Lawrence in the late 1980s. Billings believed, had Landon not passed away shortly after his time in Lawrence, he would have filmed another movie in town or encouraged others to film there. “It's a very exciting thing when it happens," Billings said. - Edited by Janiece Gatson films shot on campus or in lawrence "CARNIVAL OF SOULS"(1962) "CARNIVAL OF SOULS" (1962) A teenage girl survives a car crash only to be tormented by zombies.

Bicycle Biking Across Kansas ended Saturday in Arma. Bicyclists had stopped overnight in Girard, then took a 25 mile round-trip to the state line and back. "I see a lot of exhausted faces," Charlie Summers, Biking Across Kansas executive director, said as he looked out on Arma City Park, where the riders had gathered. Bike Across Kansas participants stand in line for lunch, Saturday, June 17, 2006 at Arma City Park. More than 800 cyclists began their trip June 9-10, 2006 at the Colorado-Kansas border. Biking Across Kansas ended Saturday in Arma. Summers, who has ridden on the tour every year since 1978, said it was one of the hardest trips the group has done. This year's trip began June 9 and 10 with 800 bicyclists at Johnson City, near the Colorado border. Biking Across Kansas began in 1975, and the route, although it varies, generally goes from west to east, so riders have help from the wind. But Summers said riders on this year's ride faced a strong east wind on the second day and the ride from Satanta to Ashland was 85 miles. Still, he noted, others had recalled harder trips. "So it's in the eye of the beholder," Summers said. From Ashland, bicyclists went to Medicine Lodge, then Clearwater, then Burden, followed by Neodesha and Girard. At Arma City Park, bikes were strewn on the grass and rental trucks waited to haul away the bikes and luggage. Bicyclists and their families lined up around the park's perimeter to wait for Chicken Annie's. Sharon and Gary Branson, of Ozawkie, sat with their 14-year-old grandson, Cole, in the grass, finishing their chicken. "The whole family came down to pick us up," said Sharon Branson, who became involved with Biking Across Kansas in 2001. Her husband started the year before and Cole started when he was 11. Although the first day was easy, she said, heat, illness and injuries took their toll. She said the roads were good and the scenery was beautiful, though hard to look at after the wind became problematic. For Chuck Richeson, of Topeka, it was the first time he had finished the ride. the Tide. "Some people say Kansas is flat," Richeson said. "It's not."

Al-Qaida in Iraq claimed responsibility for killing the soldiers, and said the successor to slain terror leader Abu Musab al-Zarqawi had "slaughtered" them, according to a Web statement that could not be authenticated. The language in the statement suggested the men had been beheaded. U. S. Maj. Gen. William Caldwell said the remains, found late Monday by American troops, were believed to be those of Pfc. Kristian Menchaca, 23, of Houston, and Pfc. Thomas L. Tucker, 25, of Madras, Ore. He said U.S. forces — part of a search involving some 8,000 American and Iraqi troops — found the bodies late Monday near Youssifiyah, where they disappeared Friday. Troops did not recover the bodies until Tuesday, however, because U.S. forces had to wait until daylight to cordon off the area for an ordnance team for fear it was booby-trapped, Caldwell said. The checkpoint attacked Friday was in the Sunni Arab region known as the "Triangle of Death" because of frequent ambushes there of U.S. soldiers and Iraqi troops. Caldwell said troops encountered a lot of roadside bombs and other explosives during the three-day search, including in the area where the bodies were found. The cause of death was "undeterminable at this point," and the two bodies will be taken back to the United States for DNA tests to confirm the identities, Caldwell said. The two soldiers disappeared after a deadly insurgent attack Friday at a checkpoint by a Euphrates River canal south of Baghdad. Spc. David J. Babineau, 25, of Springfield, Mass., was killed. The three men were assigned to the 1st Battalion, 502nd Infantry Regiment, 2nd Brigade, 101st Airborne Division from Fort Campbell, Ky. The director of the Iraqi defense ministry's operation room, Maj. Gen. Abdul-Aziz Mohammed, said the bodies showed signs of having been tortured. "With great regret, they were killed in a barbaric way," he said. The claim of responsibility was made in the name of the Mujahedeen Shura Council, an umbrella organization of five insurgent groups led by al-Qaida in Iraq. The group had posted an Internet statement Monday claiming it was holding the two American soldiers captive. "We give the good news ... to the Islamic nation that we have carried God's verdict by slaughtering the two captured crusaders," said the claim, which appeared on an Islamic militant Web site where insurgent groups regularly post statements and videos. tered," suggesting that al-Muhajer beheaded them. The Arabic word used in the statement, "nahr," is used for the slaughtering of sheep by cutting the throat and has been used in past statements to refer to beheadings. The U.S. military has identified al-Muhajer as an Egyptian associate of al-Zarqawi who is also known as Abu Ayyub al-Masri. "With God Almighty's blessing, Abu Hamza al-Muhajer carried out the verdict of the Islamic court" calling for the soldiers' slaying, the statement said. The statement said the soldiers were "slaugh- The killings would be the first acts of violence attributed to al-Muhajar since he was named al-Qaida in Iraq's new leader in a June 12 Web message by the group. He succeeded al-Zarqawi, who was killed in a U.S. airstrike on June 7. Al-Zarqawi made al-Qaida in Iraq notorious for hostage beheadings and was believed to have killed two American captives himself — Nicholas Berg in April 2004 and Eugene Armstrong in September 2004. Caldwell also said that Iraqi and American troops involved in the search for the missing soldiers killed three suspected insurgents and detained 34 in fighting that also left seven U.S. servicemen wounded. A farmer claiming to have witnessed the attack told The Associated Press on Sunday that insurgents swarmed the checkpoint, killing the driver of a Humvee before taking two of his comrades captive. Ahmed Khalaf Falah said three Humvees were manning a checkpoint when they came under fire from many directions. Two Humvees went after the assailants but the third was ambushed before it could move.

BY FRED A. DAVIS III fdavis@kansan.com I am very happy to have you. Editor's note: Game 6 of the NBA Finals was still underway when the Kansan went to press Tuesday night. Dwyane Wade has been absolutely sick throughout the 2006 NBA playoffs. throughout the season. The fifth overall pick in the 2003 draft, a draft that will go down as one of the greatest NBA drafts — scratch that — one professional sports of the greatest drafts in professional sports history. Wade is doing his best M.J. impersonation this postseason and is trying to become the first member of that heralded group to lead his team to a ring. to up to read his训题 Forgot who was in that draft? LeBron James, Carmelo Anthony, Wade, Chris Kaman, Chris Bosh, Kirk Hinrich, Nick Collison, Kyle Korver, Josh Howard and Luke Walton.

The guy hasn't logged real NBA minutes since his rookie season and can be seen on the side of a milk carton with the caption, "last spotted with the Oklahoma City Hornets in preseason - help with jump shot if found." presentation. All right, the 2003 NBA draft may not be one of the greatest drafts in sports history, but it is a pretty darn good one and will have plenty of rings to boast when all is said and done. Through five games of the NBA finals, Wade averaged a smidge under 35 points per game and shot 45 percent from the field. Not bad considering he put up 121 shots in those five games. Now the Mavs, who have their own gem from that 2003 draft class, Josh Howard, taken with the last pick of the first round, have tried just about everything to slow Wade down. Back to Wade, who continues to punish the Mavericks, and I don't know if punish is a strong enough word; brutalize, destroy, maim, kill, torture seem as though they fit nicely, because that's exactly what Wade has done to the Mavs and the rest of the NBA during his third playoff run.

Kansan file photo The Kansas baseball team has the opportunity to reach consecutive NCAA tournaments for the first time since 1993-1994. However, next year's team will be without at least nine players from the senior-laden 2006 team that reached the Corvallis Regional. To match last season's success, Kansas will depend on some new faces at key positions and familiar faces in new roles. BATTING ORDER: Simpson will likely take Gus Milner's spot in right field. Junior Brock Simpson has the most experience as a leadoff hitter after filling that role for 24 games last season. Simpson hit .293 in 2006 with eight doubles, six triples, five home runs, 33 RBI, 38 runs and five stolen bases. With another year of experience and consistent playing time next season, Simpson should improve all of those numbers. On defense, Kansas baseball fans are used to Ritchie Price batting second and playing shortstop. The third and final Price brother, Robby, could find himself replacing Ritchie at both spots. Robby was a Louisville Slugger Preseason First Team All-American this spring and led Free State High School to its first state championship. Even as a freshman, Robby should be a regular contributor for the Jayhawks. Junior John Allman hit .333 in 2006 with six home runs, 16 doubles, 48 runs, 52 RBI and seven stolen bases. Allman started in left field all but six games last season and should remain there next season. Junior Erik Morrison also had a solid 2006 campaign. He hit .290 with a team-leading 14 homers, 15 doubles, 47 runs, 52 RBI and seven stolen bases. He only missed three games at third base last season and will man the hot corner again in 2007. As far as home runs go, Preston Land had the best year ever by a Kansas freshman with nine round trippers in 2006. He also hit .314 with 27 runs and 33 RBI Land started 40 games at first base last year and should surpass that SEE BASEBALL ON PAGE 19 SUPPORT BOOSTSTEAM GPAs BY JACK WEINSTEIN jweinstein@kansan.com KANSAN STAFF WRITER The University of Kansas athletics teams posted the second highest GPA in school history last semester. The 14 teams posted a combined 2.93 GPA. The highest still stands at 2.98, which was posted in Spring 2004. Paul Buskirk, associate athletics director, student athlete support services, attributed the rise in GPA to a number of things. With the arrival of Lew Perkins, athletics director, in summer 2003, increases within the academic side of the Athletics Department in "When Lew came here, he looked around everything, every aspect of what we do here," Marchiony said.

Buskirk also attributed the recent academic success of the student athletes at the University to their recent athletic success. He noted the football team specifically. The Jayhawks finished 7-5, 3-5 Big 12, which included a victory in the Houston Bowl - the 'Hawks in the past three years.

The University of Rhode Island will be in Lawrence on Dec. 30 for the first meeting between the two schools since Rhode Island eliminated Kansas in the second round of the 1998 NCAA tournament. Jim Marchiony, Kansas associate athletics director, said that the schedule is still subject to change. "There's still more games to schedule," Marchiony said. "At least one game, maybe two. It changes so much that a game that we had a month ago may not exist now. That's why we don't put anything out until it's done." The final schedule may be complete by the end of July, at the earliest, Marchiony said. Jack Weinstein KU/MU football game to be televised on ABC The Kansas vs. Missouri football game this season will be televised nationally on ABC. The season finale for both schools will be held at 11 a.m. Saturday Nov. 25 at Farout Field in Columbia, Mo.

"It's good for our program. It highlights one of the great rivalries in the country. KU/MU is one of the most intense rivalries in all of college sports. It's good, it'll be on full display this year." Marchiony also said the game, televised on network television, says a lot about the progress the program was making. People at the networks and people in general were taking notice of what was going on at Kansas.

They spoke on condition of anonymity after being asked not to discuss the investigation publicly. Harvey Shields, one of Giants slugger Barry Bonds' personal trainers, who works for the team, also was being sought by Mitchell. The former Senate majority leader was appointed in March by commissioner Bud Selig to head the league's investigation into steroids in the sport. Bonds, second on the career home run list behind Hank Aaron, is among the players being investigated. Alou said he had not yet been contacted by Mitchell, "but I probably will." A Giants spokesman said the entire coaching staff declined to comment about Mitchell's investigation because Major League Baseball asked teams not to discuss the subject publicly to protect the integrity of the probe. protect the integrity of the patient. Selig has said he was prompted to launch an investigation in part by the spring release of the book "Game of Shadows," by two San Francisco Chronicle reporters who detailed Bonds' alleged use of steroids, insulin and human growth hormone. There is no timetable for completing the investigation. Authors Lance Williams and Mark Fainaru-Wada wrote that Bonds started using steroids because he was jealous of the attention paid to Mark McGwire's home run race with Sammy Sosa in 1998. The 41-year-old Bonds, who passed Babe Ruth with his 715th career home run last month, has always denied using steroids of any other performance-enhancing drugs _ insisting everything he has accomplished is a product of natural talent and hard work.

Rod Brind'Amour cried. Bret Hedican jumped for joy. Even Doug Weight — bad shoulder and all — lifted hockey's most revered trophy above his head. It tilted slightly to his right, but he held on. to his right, but he needs No way the Hurricanes were going to let this one slip away. Cam Ward made sure of that. CHELSEA The rookie goalie stopped nearly everything that came his way, finishing off a brilliant playoffs with a rock-solid performance in Game 7. The Hurricanes skated away with their first Stanley Cup title, beating Edmonton 3-1 in the winner-take-all finale Monday night. Ward, only 22, won the Conn Smythe Trophy as most valuable player of the postseason. "Goaltending wins you championships, make no mistake about it," said BrindAmour, the 35-year-old captain, his eyes still red after he left the ice. "I got to raise the cup because of that kid." Brind'Amour wasn't the only member of the 30-something club who finally broke through. All of them will be getting their names on the cup. There was Hedican, 35, who lost in his first two trips to the finals. And Weight, 35, who finally made it for the first time in his 15th season. And Whitney, 34, who didn't reach the finals until Year 14. And the most patient one of all, 37-year-old Glen Wesley, who had played in the eighth-most regular-season games (1,311) in NHL history without winning a championship. "That was probably the greatest feeling of Paul Chiasson/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Finally. Paul Chishson/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Carolina Hurricanes coach Peter Laviolette kisses the Stanley Cup after winning Game 7 of the Stanley cup hockey finals over the Edmonton Oilers in Raleigh, N.C. on Monday June 19, 2006. my life," coach Peter Laviolette said. "To watch those guys hold the cup over their head — that is what I will remember." A couple of defensemen, Aaron Ward and Frantisek Kaberle, staked Carolina to a 2-0 lead through two periods. Justin Williams finished off the Oilers, scoring an empty-net goal with 1:01 remaining after Edmonton playoff star Fernando Pisani broke up Cam Ward's shutout early in the third. Oilers defenseman Chris Pronger, a stalwart throughout the postseason, gave up the puck in the Carolina zone and wound up making a helpless dive to block-Williams' gimme into the goal that had been vacated by Jussi Markkanen in favor of an extra skater. 6'5" ,230 lbs. to match up with the 6'4" 212 lbs. Wade, but just doesn't have the quicks to keep up. The aforementioned Howard has taken his turn, but came away with only hurt feelings. COLUMN (CONTINUED FROM 16) So who can stop Dwyane Wade? Or at least slow him down? least slow down You'll have to leave the Mavericks roster, skip the Pistons, bypass the Nets and find another member of that 2003 draft class, #12 on the Chicago Bulls. Perhaps a steady paycheck has allowed Hinrich to ditch the lazy locks, but the 6'3",190 lbs. former third-team All-American from Iowa is as good as it gets when it comes to defending Wade. That's right, KU's very own, the floppy- haired one, Kirk Hinrich. During the regular season, Wade averaged 27.2 points per game. In three contests against the Bulls, he averaged just more than 12. Through 22 playoff games, (last night's game not included), Wade averaged 28 points per contest. Hinrich and the Bulls limited him to 24.6 a game, his lowest of the four series he has played in. The Bulls also held Wade to his lowest field goal percentage of the playoffs, holding the former Marquette star to 42 percent shooting. That number looks even better when compared to the "couldsomebody-pleaseput-a-hand-in-his-face-defense" employed by the allegedly defense-minded Pistons; Wade shot 64 percent against "Mo Town". Defensively, Hinrich is one of the best in the NBA. Not surprising, really when you consider he was a defensive stud while at KU. Just ask Kareem Rush. While Hinrich's profile in the league was already on the rise, his defensive efforts on Wade should boost his stature even more. And the timing couldn't be any better. Hinrich is heading into a contract year as he enters his fourth professional season in 2006-2007. The Bulls have boatloads of cash under the salary cap and would be wise to invest in one of the better all-around NBA players in Hinrich. If not, well, there's always Dallas. -- Davis is a Topeka senior in journalism and english the four series he has played on The Bulla www WEDNESDAY, JUNE 21, 2006 SPORTS THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN 19 GPA (CONTINUED FROM 16) ny said the goal was still a 4.0 GPA.

Despite an injury-plagued 2006 season, Ryne Price hit nine home runs in 86 at-bats. If his injury problems are behind him, Ryne should be a regular at second base in 2007. Sophomore Justin Ellrich saw limited action last season, but showed some potential to be Kansas' designated hitter. In 48 at-bats, Ellrich had one home run, three doubles, four RBI and seven runs. The catcher position appears to be up for grabs for 2007. Sophomore Buck Afenir and senior Dylan Parzyk combined to hit .228 last season, but Afenir did hit .375 with a home run and six RBI during the Big 12 tournament. Afenir and Parzyks competition in 2007 will be incoming transfers Joe Servais from Garden City CC and Joe Soushers from Phoenix College. Servais hit .356 as a sophomore for the Broncbusters with 14 extra base hits, 36 RBI, 54 runs and 13 stolen bases. Soushers hit .393 as a sophomore for the Bears with 11 extra base hits, 24 RBI and 16 runs. Center field will be one of the biggest holes to fill in 2007. Matt Baty played solid defense there, was always a base-stealing threat and was a career .320 hitter. Senior Kyle Murphy has the most potential to do the same next season. Murphy displayed a stellar glove last season and might have even more speed than Baty, but his hitting - a .153 average - was a weakness in 2006. PITCHING STAFF: Kansas will have a plethora of young pitchers to choose from to replace Land, Fairchild and Quick in its weekend rotation. However, sophomore Nick Czyz appears to be the only clear-cut favorite to fill a weekend spot. Czyz's early season struggles in 2006 hurt his overall numbers (4-3 record, 5.11 ERA and 30 walks in 49.1 innings), but the lefty made hitters look silly at times with 45 strikeouts and grew up in a hurry, earning the win in the Big 12 Championship game against Nebraska. Senior Brendan McNamara is another candidate to start on weekends. As a middle reliever and midweek starter in 2006, he went 3-3 with a 3.86 ERA and 40 strikeouts in 51.1 innings. To fill the third weekend spot, coach Ritch Price may look to land a transfer from a Division I school, as he did last season with Fairchild. Garden City CC transfer Aaron Breit looked like the most likely candidate for the spot, but after being drafted in the 2005 MLB Amateur Draft by San Diego, Breit signed with the Padres the day before this year's draft. Sophomore Andy Marks has a good chance at being a long reliever on weekends and a midweek starter for the Jayhawks. The lefthanded Marks had a 2-1 record in 2006 with a 5.35 ERA and 31 strikeouts in 33.2 innings. After Marks, Kansas could find regular setup men in transfers Andres Esquibel and Hiarali Garcia. Esquibel went 8-4 as a sophomore for Palomar College with a 2.63 ERA and 65 strikeouts in 92.1 innings. Garcia went 6-3 as a sophomore for Eastern Oklahoma State College with a 2.58 ERA and 89 strikeouts in 83.7 innings. If Kansas doesn't add to its roster before next season, Esquibel and Garcia may battle for spots in the weekend rotation. Filling in for Kansas legend Don Czyz to close games will be bophomore Paul Smyth. Despite a 6.13 ERA last season, he compiled a 5-1 record and one save. Smyth also had 37 strikeouts to 15 walks in 54.1 innings. "Any time you win the Big 12 conference, you're on the map," Baty said. "It was hard to get there, but the hardest part is going to be for the younger guys to sustain that. It can be easy just to fall right back off that map."
