Five finalists for provost named
Vice chancellor former law prof from KU on list
By Spencer Duncan
Kansan staff writer
Five finalists for the University of Kansas provost's position were announced yesterday. The list includes one current and one former University employee.
David Shulenburger, vice chancellor for academic affairs, and Marilyn Yarbrough, former KU law professor, are among the finalists.
Yarbrough served as KU associate vice chancellor for research, graduate studies and public service from 1983 to 1987. She is now associate provost at the University of North Carolina.

However, being familiar with the University does not mean Shulenburger and Yarbrough have an advantage.

"This has been a very fair process and an excellent search so far," said Leonard Kristalka, search committee member and director of the Natural History Museum. "Right now, we are looking at everyone equally."
The other candidates are Richard Edwards, dean of the college of arts and sciences at the University of Kentucky; Nancy Marlin, vice president for academic affairs and provost of the University of Northern Iowa; and Marlene Strathe, provost and vice president for academic affairs at the University of North Dakota.

Memorial for Scally to be held
By Andrea Albright Kansan staff writer
Scald died at Lawrence Memorial Hospital on May 8, at 5:44. The cause of death was not released.
A memorial service for James Scally, assistant dean of the School of Fine Arts, will be at 3:30 p.m. Friday at Swarthout Recital Hall, in Murphy Hall.
Scally came to KU in 1969 as a graduate student and was a teaching assistant in the department of English. He earned a master's degree in philosophy in 1973.
In 1976, Scaly was appointed administrative assistant to Chancellor Archie Dykes, and remained at that job under Chancellors Gene Budig, Del Shankel, and Robert Hemenway.
In December 1995, Scolly was named assistant dean of the School of Fine Arts. Scolly became ill shortly after he became assistant dean.
"He was a very bright man with a wonderful sense of humor," Thompson said.
"He loved music and went to most of the events in the school over the years."
Thompson said he would miss Scaly's friendship as well as the skills and energy Scaly had contributed to the school.
During Scally's tenure in the chancellor's office, he became known for his wit, as well as for his ability to understand the complex workings of a university this size.
Debbie Walker, an executive secretary to the chancellor's office, said that those were some of his best characteristics.
Scally played an unusual role at KU, said Jeannebell Johnson, assistant to the executive vice chancellor.
"He had to anticipate the issues so that the chancellor wouldn't be caught off guard," she said.
These skills allowed Scaly to become a founding member of the National Association of Presidential Assistants in Higher Education. He also was a member of the Gay and Lesbian Staff Association.
Scally also was a president of the Lawrence Lyric Opera Guild and a supporter of Gay and Lesbian Services of Kansas.
Former Olympian Ryun runs race for Congress
By Spencer Duncan
Vancouver staff writer
Kansan staff writer
It didn't take long for athletic references to appear after former Olympian Jim Ryun announced he was running for Congress.
Ryun, a three time Olympic team member, motivational speaker, graduate of the University of Kansas and father of four, said he was running for the House of Representatives with the American family in mind.
After announcing Monday morning he would run for the 2nd congressional district seat , Ryun walked out of the Secretary of State's office and had his picture taken with a woman holding a sign reading Run Ryun Run . He told the woman that was exactly what he was doing.
"There is a need for a renaissance of traditional moral values in this country," Ryun said.
The 49-year-old Ryun won a silver medal in the 1500 meters at the 1968 Olympics in Mexico City. He also held the record in the mile for 16 years. However, Ryun said he hopes people see him less as an athlete and more as someone who can help change the United States.
"Obviously people are going to recognize my
name and I would be lying if I said that didn't help," Ryun said. "But I am running with the good of the country in mind and I want people to know that I have ideas that can help this country."
"I will run this race with the character which I have lived my life by," Ryum said. "I'm stepping forward to provide the leadership necessary for renewal and restoration in America."
Among those ideas are working on downsizing the federal debt, a desire to see America return to the principles it was founded on, a strengthening of the family and the opposition of partial birth abortions.
Ryun is the only Republican who has filed for the seat being vacated by Representative Sam Brownback. Brownback is leaving to run for the Senate seat being vacated by Senator Bob Dole.
Democrat John Frieden has announced he will run against Ryun on the Democratic ticket.
Burdett Loomis, a political science professor at the University of Kansas, thinks Ryun's campaign will be an interesting test for the Republican party.

Students receive financial aid early
By Kathleen McGee Special to the Kansan
Getting money to live on will be easier this summer for students who depend on government funds to get them through the semester.
Julie Cooper, associate director of student financial aid, said the office applied for relief from federal regulations that require freshmen to wait 30 days to receive financial aid and that require schools to disburse funds in two payments during the summer semester.
"It's new and it's simple," Cooper said. "Students will receive one lump sum, one time, instead of having to wait until the beginning of July to receive the second half of their summer funding."
Students whose loans cover more than tuition and fees received their entire refund check during fee payment completion yesterday as part of an experimental procedure approved by
the U.S. Department of Education.
Universities across the nation wrote out proposals for regulatory relief for their students.
"We determined six items that we considered were regulatory burdens for our students and wrote proposals for relief from those burdens," Cooper said.
The government then decided which proposals would be accepted.
In return, the staff would collect data on loan-default rates and other statistics requested by the department.
"It's an experimental program," Cooper explained. "We are part of a consortium that received approval for these experimental-site regulatory relief issues."
She said that approximately 25 percent of the students enrolled in summer classes receive federal financial aid.
Martina Dodson, Emporia junior, is one of them.
Dodson, who is enrolled in six
hours, said she was glad she could buy her textbooks before July. She said she would buy books and class materials with her refund.
But Shawn Mick, Lawrence senior, was not sure that offering single disbursements was a good idea.
"If you can budget it right, it's no problem," he said. "If you're going to blow it all on stuff you don't need, maybe two disbursements would be better."
Rachel Rademacher, associate director of student financial aid, said that in the past, incoming freshmen had been required to wait 30 days after the first day of classes to receive their funding, which was in one lump sum.
The federal government assumed that most freshmen who were going to withdraw from college would do so during the first month.
The government did not want those students to find themselves in debt for only a month of school.
But Rademacher checked the
University's figures for student withdrawal prior to the disbursement date.
"For the summer of 1995, only nine out of the 1,229 students withdrew before the second payment," she said.
Other students received only half the money allotted to them during the first fee payment completion. That was often just enough to cover the students' tuition, fees and books, leaving nothing for basic living expenses.
"Historically, summer disbursements have been double disbursements. And that caused a lot of financial problems for students." Rademacher said.
Lenita Richardson, Kansas City, Kan., senior, was delighted to learn that she would receive her entire refund in one payment.
Richardson will be studying abroad in Paris this summer.
"I couldn't go if I only had half of it. It's nice to have the extra financial security," she said.
Fire reignites on roof of Lewis
Kansan staff report
KU facilities operations employees received some unexpected help Monday when a fire reignited on the roof of Lewis Hall.
A 20-by-20 wooden cooler being removed caught fire for the second time that day, prompting the Lawrence fire department to extinguish the fire.
Workers were removing the cooler with cutting torches when it caught fire the first time. The employees put the fire out, but it reigned later in the day.
The Lawrence fire department arrived about 1 p.m. and took about 15 minutes to put out the fire. Since the cooler was
already being removed, no monetary damage was caused to the hall.
Sophomore Takehiro Ishino was eating lunch in the cafeteria when the fire alarms surprised him. He said he thought it was a false alarm.
About 75 students and employees evacuated the building. No one was injured, but at least one student's meal was interrupted.
When I went outside I saw the fire," Ishino said. "I thought, 'Wow, this is real.' This is probably the first real fire alarm I've ever been in."
Fire Chief Jim McSwain said there wasn't much danger of the fire getting out of control, but firefighters were glad it didn't spread across the roof.

Driving on Naismith Drive between 19th Street and Sunnyside Avenue has been challenging during the past few weeks. The southbound lane of Naismith is closed between Oliver Hall and Schwegler Drive to replace deteriorating metal culverts with concrete pipes as part of a storm sewer improvement project. Both lanes of traffic are detoured. Doug Riat, associate director of design and construction management, said that weather permitting, the work should be done by the middle of next week and the detour removed by the end of next week.

Shanta Griffin, Lawrence senior, lights the Olympic Torch off of a preceding runner in it's run through Lawrence on May 16. Griffin was chosen in Atlanta to be one of the torch bearers based on academics and her work in the community. Griffin's leg of the run was from Memorial stadium to the Spencer Art Museum.
Olympic torch passes through KU
Three KU students chosen for relays
By Gwen Olson
Kansan staff writer
The city of Lawrence was chosen as one of many stops for the Olympic torch relay. The torch ran through Lawrence and the University of Kansas campus on May 16, day 20 of the relay.
Three KU students were chosen to carry the torch: Casey Kutler, Lenexa doctoral student, Shawna Haught, Emporia sophomore, and Shanta Griffin, Lawrence senior.
Griffin was nominated to carry the torch because she was awarded a
scholarship by the Coca-Cola Foundation, which she used to pay for her education at KU. She was named one of the 1991 Coca-Cola national scholars after writing a series of essays in a contest in Atlanta in 1991
Griffin also was chosen on the strength of her academic record and her community service. She was contacted about being a torchbearer two weeks before the Lawrence leg of the relay.
"At first it didn't really hit me," Griffin said. "At the time it was finals and I was tutoring 16 football players. The only thing I did to prepare was join a gym."
Cheered on by family members and friends, Griffin ran the stretch of the relay between Memorial Stadium and Spencer Museum of Art.
"It was also symbolic of what the Coca-Cola Foundation has represented for me. That moment was proof that I am supposed to succeed."
Hundreds of Lawrence residents watched Griffin and the many others who carried the torch to show their spirit for the Olympics and the U.S. team.
"Many of us [runners] came from different walks of life," she said. "It represented harmony and that's what we all accomplished."
Jason Arnett, a breakfast cook at Union Square, said he was glad that the International Olympic Committee decided to involve 90 percent of the country in the event.
Lundi Barb, Wichita junior, agree
"We stood around for 30 minutes."
"The only thing I did to prepare was join a gym."

and it was gone in five seconds, but I don't expect to ever make it to the Olympics, so this was as close as I could get," she said.
The torch was in Indianapolis this morning and will reach Louisville, Ky., tonight. The relay will continue until it reaches Atlanta for the opening ceremony in July.
Groups discuss online fee hike
Heavy traffic on Internet forces debate on possibility of increase
By Craig Lang
Kansan staff writer
Students dialing into the University of Kansas computer system may eventually have to pay more for Internet access, but probably not in the next school year.
Jerry Neibaum, executive director of information technology, said even though more students are using the Internet for longer periods of time, he did not expect to see an increase of the $30-a-year terminal server account fee for the 1996-97 school year. However, several groups on campus are discussing a possible fee increase to pay for the added equipment and labor that may be needed to satisfy the growing demand for Internet access.
Among the groups considering the account fee increase is the University Senate Executive Committee's Academic Computing and Telecommunications Committee.
A May 6 article in the University Daily Kansan incorrectly reported that SenEx proposed raising the cost of the terminal server account to $85 a year. Jan Weller, director of networking and telecommunications services, said that the fee increase was never proposed; it was simply discussed by committee members.
Weller said the $55 increase was needed to meet the demand of the heavier use of the system.
Grey Montgomery, student body president, said that the possible account fee increase needed to be discussed, yet SenEx and administrators needed to remember that the point of a University having its own computer system is inexpensive Internet access for students.
Montgomery said the plan discussed by Weller to raise the terminal server account fee by $55 was too steep.
"That specific proposal was too rigid," he said. "We need to look at a lower increase. I think we need to be reasonable and find that middle ground."
Neibaum said the $30 students must pay if they want to log onto the University's computer system from home was enough to cover the hardware expenses. However, the growing demand is making it more difficult to provide open computer lines for students to call in from home.
The number of Internet users at the university has more than doubled in the last two years, from 13,000 to 30,000 people. On top of that, Neibaum said, many of the users are spending more time on the system.
"That's part of the problem," he said. "Usage patterns have changed. People are finding more things to do on the Internet."
Bill Crowe, dean of libraries, will take the position of vice chancellor for information services on July 1. Crowe said that as part of his job, he was looking into different dial-in systems and methods of paying for the access.
Crowe said that he had looked at other Big 12 and Board of Regents schools to compare computer systems. Crowe pointed to the example of Wichita State University, which has formed a contract with MCI to handle its computer system. MCI handles WSU's dial-in service and determines how much students pay for at-home Internet access.
"That's a good example of what a commercial sector would allow for," he said.
Lawrence businesses leery of an increase in minimum wage
Congress considering bill to raise wages twice in two years
By Andrea Albright Kansan staff writer
On May 23, the U.S. House of Representatives voted to raise minimum wage from $4.25 to $5.15 an hour.
The lowliest of workers are about to get a raise, and some employers are wondering how they can stretch their dollars to meet the increase.
In Lawrence reactions are mixed.
At Natural Way, 820 Massachusetts St., manager Midge Grinstead said her store always had paid more than minimum wage.
The new increase would make it difficult to add new employees to her staff.
"If it raises unemployment, then the benefits don't warrant the wage hike."
Joseph Sicilian KUassociate professor of economics
"Small business gets slammed a lot with payroll taxes and all," Grin-stead said.
provided paid minimum wage.
The University of Kansas' workstudy program also would be unable to support as many jobs on campus as they have in the past.
Rachel Rademacher, associate director of student financial aid, said the majority of the jobs they
If the money allocated to pay for those wages was not increased, the number of available jobs would significantly decrease.
"The school supports about 500 students right now.
That number could be reduced to 400 or 450," Rademacher said.
The bills passage in the Senate is uncertain because Republicans have linked it to a partial repeal of a gasoline tax.
Economists question whether increased wages are beneficial to the work force if jobs are eliminated.
If it raises unemployment, then the benefits don't warrant the wage hike," said Joseph Sicilian, associate professor of economics.
"The issue is its effect on unemployment.
Sicilian also said that economists
who studied labor issues disagreed about the affects of minimum wage on unemployment.
Minimum wage began in 1938 at 25 cents an hour.
It was established as part of the Fair Labor Standards Act to end sweat shop conditions throughout the nation.
Through the 1960s and 1970s, minimum wage rose steadily along with the cost of living.
Since then, the climb of minimum wage has been erratic.
If the bill passes, the rate would increase to $4.75 on July 1 and again to $5.15 one year later.
Kristen Ferrell, Overland Park sophomore, thinks the wage hike is a good idea.
"It will help out a lot for students who are trying to go to school and pay tuition, loans and bills," Ferrell said.
Minimum Wage Since 1970
Minimum wage increased steadily until 1981. The next increase was more than nine years later. The most recent proposal would raise minimum wage to $5.15 by July 1, 1997.

VIEWPOINT
KU teaching assistants degraded by JCCC ads
The winds of disrespect were blowing across Jayhawk Boulevard last semester as KU students were assaulted by Johnson County Community College recruitment ads for summer enrollment. The ad featured a JCCC student who, after attending the community college during the summer, decided to continue his education there because he had "real" teachers, rather than teaching assistants or graduate students. This insulting insinuation that teaching assistants are not real teachers is a blatant violation of appropriate recruitment behavior expected in academia.
Julie Haas, director of college information and publications at JCCC, was responsible for producing the ad. She claims the ad is not representative of JCCC opinion and that the ad only reproduces the opinion of the student featured. Nevertheless, the fact that the college was willing to use the student's opinion in recruitment efforts says something about JCCC's respect for fellow Kansas educational institutions.
Despite pulling the ad after receiving a letter from the Graduate Teaching Assistants Coalition, the college is guilty not only of participating in an immature game of insults and accusations, but also of hypocrisy. The college, like the University, employs

large numbers of part-time instructors while offering substantially fewer fulltime professors. According to the JCCC department of communications, the department employs 25 fulltime professors along with 58 part-time instructors.
Although both the University and JCCC employ more part-time instructors than full-time professors, the ad implies that teaching assistants provide inferior instruction to professors. The ad obviously supports this assumption and asserts that students may get superior instruction at JCCC because they employ more full-time instructors than the University. However, to assume that all teaching assistants provide inferior instruction is a gross generalization, for both good and bad teaching assistants and professors exist. Although there is no replacement for personal contact with a professor, teaching assistants provide the effective instruction and classroom environment on which the University prides itself.

Linear tuition will interfere with undergraduate research
Since the implementation of linear tuition at the University of Kansas, many issues have been brought to light concerning its impact on the University environment. While results regarding the chief aim of reducing add/drop activities each semester are still unknown, so are the potential negative effects of linear tuition on undergraduate participation in research projects.
Some academic departments at the University allow undergraduate students to explore their chosen fields through research projects. Many degrees require research activities for graduation. Many students choose to participate in research activities beyond the requisite number for graduation. The new linear tuition plan could have an adverse

effect on continuing participation in research because of the financial burden of enrolling in research classes for credit.
The University of Kansas enjoys a reputation as a top-notch research university. As such, the University must allow for students to participate in research projects for credit without the added burden of linear tuition. Otherwise, many students may be forced to go without the rewards inherent in research. The University's reputation could only be damaged by the loss of these enrichments.

Jeff MacNelly / CHICAGO TRIBUNE
Everyone seems to be down on Bob Doleately. Nothing he does seems to be right. Either he's too old, too grumpy, or his campaign issues are too unoriginal. Even stepping down to become citizen Dole hasn't helped him much.
Dole's legislative ability works for U.S. system
For example, a May 27 Newsweek poll, carried out after Dole left Senate, found that while 47 percent of readers polled thought Dole's Washington experience would help him as president, 43 percent thought he had been in Congress so long that he was too much of an insider to be a good president.
As a legislator, what's wrong with knowing the legislative process? Extensive experience in the field is virtually a prerequisite for anyone applying to be the manager of a business or seeking promotion to president in a corporation. Why isn't Bob Dole's experience in Washington more of an asset rather than a drawback as qualification for being president?
It all depends on what one's idea of a good president is. And the qualifications needed for good presidents, or heads of government, depend on the nature of the political system.
Some Americans wish the United States had a parliamentary system. They choose presidents based on the candidate's stance on single issues, thinking that the president will be able to pass legislation that represents his or her position on issues like abortion or welfare reform. And if America were a parliamentary system, this probably would work. The head of government in the parliamentary system is the prime minister, who is selected not by popular vote, but by the majority party in parliament. Therefore, any legislation that the prime minister makes along party lines is likely to receive the support of the majority in parliament and is passed with fewer delays or amendments.
The focus is on getting legislation passed. Whatever bills the prime minister proposes will be approved. It's that simple. For example, if Clinton were the

prime minister of the Uni ted States, there would be a Democratic majority in Congress (the Democ rats would ha v e selected him to be their leader), and he would fulfill all his
campaign promises in a couple of years because the Democrats in Congress would always support Clinton's legislation, thereby silencing minority Republican opposition.
However, the United States is the world's only industrialized nation with a presidential system. It is entirely different and much more complicated than the parliamentary system. The focus in U.S. policymaking is on compromise and incremental change. Here, the president is selected by popular vote as the head of government. There is no guarantee that he or she will be a member of the majority party in Congress, nor is it guaranteed that the members of his or her party will consistently vote along party lines for his or her policies. Only about 80 percent of all Democrats and 75 percent of all Republicans vote together on any given bill. In a parliamentary system, where there is rarely dissent from the party line, these numbers would more likely be 99 percent and 98 percent. Unlike a prime minister, it is difficult for a president in the U.S. system to steamroll any legislation through Congress. His or her proposed bill usually emerges from committees, subcommittees and floor debates with so many amendments that its original intent hardly remains.
The key to getting legislation passed in a presidential system is making negotiations and compromises to get it through each level of decision-making. When compromise cannot be made, decision-making becomes gridlocked.
A prime example of gridlock was the budget deficit reduction debate, which forced a government shutdown last year. Clinton presented a plan to reduce the deficit in ten years, and Newt Gingrich and his Republican supporters insisted it should be done in seven years. It took months of negotiation and weeks of government shutdowns to come to a working compromise on the issue.
If the United States had a parliamentary style of government, we could vote for a head of government with strong party ideals and be guaranteed that new policies would reflect those ideals. But our presidential system calls for someone who can negotiate and compromise with both political parties. That compromise usually creates policies that are more moderate than extreme. Bob Dole has a reputation in the Senate for being a negotiator and a dealmaker. As a senator, his focus has been to make compromises intended to pass bills into laws. He is not one to hold the hard Republican conservative line. During the great budget debate, Dole spearheaded a welfare reform measure that was amenable to both moderate Republicans and some Democrats.
Americans seem to want their government to move faster. A large number of people voted for Clinton in 1992 because he represented change. To achieve rapid change in a presidential system, the United States needs a president who is capable of compromise and who is experienced in negotiating. Electing a hardline visionary reformer as our head of state leads to more political division and government shutdowns than radical reforms. If Americans want to avoid gridlock and get things done, Dole's experience in Washington should be his greatest asset in his candidacy for president.

Bob Dole makes another deal by quitting Senate
Nearly a month has passed since Kansas Sen. Bob Dole tearfully announced his decision to resign from Senate. An admitted CNN addict, I was glued to my television that Wednesday afternoon, transfixed by witnessing a truly historic moment. While I appreciated Dole's short-and-sweet approach to the speech, I was rather skeptical of his rhetoric.
Speaking of doing what's right, wasn't it big of Dole to demand an FBI investigation after accusations of money laundering hit his campaign recently? It seems that some corporations reimbursed employees and their family members for donations to the Dole campaign, which is a violation of federal campaign finance laws. The most recent scandal involved the Aqua Leisure Corporation and was uncovered by The Kansas City Star. However, this wasn't the first. From Gulf Oil to agribusiness price fixing scams, this kind of thing has been going on with Dole's campaigns for 25 years.
Dole asserted that our society judged politicians "as much by the manner in which they leave office as by the vigor with which they pursue it." I know this was meant to instill an image of Dole as a class act and a trooper for serving his country and bowing out gracefully. In my opinion, it only called to mind the image of a quitter.
STAFF COLUMNIST
Despite Dole's insistence that he did not use this unscrupulous tactic, the Wall Street Journal found that Dole had already paid in excess of $1 million to a company called Campaign Tel to smear his opponents. Because of this evidence, campaign representative Christina Martin was forced to retract Dole's original denial. She insisted the calls only restated positions from Dole's TV ads. I guess she was only trying to do what's right.
He has been lagging behind President Clinton by double digits in the polls for months. He has been able to pass none of the legislation that he so desperately needed to jumpstart his campaign, which has bored both the press and public. The legislative gridlock that he has used to constrain Democratic proposals since the so-called Republican Revolution has turned around on him like a rabid dog. What happened to Bob Dole the dealmaker? He has become Bob Dole the quitter. President Clinton still leads in the r
Dole also said in his resignation speech that he was one of the people and that he had overcome hard times. Give me a break. Dole has been in Washington since 1961. Except for his courageous and remarkable recovery from World War II injuries, what else has been hard for Senator Dole?
SHANNON TAUSCHER
He gets free meals and gifts from PACS, he has voted himself regular salary increases and has better health insurance and retirement benefits than the majority of older Americans. He has corporate jets at his disposal courtesy of Archer Daniels Midland, U.S. Tobacco and Federal Express. He recently bought a condo in Florida for a fraction of what it would cost you or me. The list goes on and on.
dent Clinton still leads in the polls.
Dole said that his campaign was about telling the truth and doing what's right. That is an interesting twist given the fact that he lied to the American public in February regarding his campaign's use of push polls. These phony polls fed respondents misleading information and outright lies about primary opponents in an attempt to influence voting.
This is not the hard way, Mr. Dole. The hard way is the way my grandmother did it. She survived the Depression, an abusive upbringing and never finished high school. Despite her lack of formal education, she is one of the most intelligent and insightful people I know. She raised four children alone on a waitress' salary. And she's done it all with a dignity that commands respect. She probably sleeps better at night than Dole, too.
A recent ABC/Washington Post poll proves that Dole's baseless rhetoric has not deluded the majority of Americans. Nearly 60 percent of those polled see Dole as an "old-style Republican who'll cut taxes for the rich and cut social programs for the middle class and poor." Actions do speak louder than words, and it appears that the proverbial chicken has come home to roost for Bob Dole.

Kliner awaits big-league call
Kansas baseball standout's fate in hands of major league teams
Jayhawks 24
Contributed Photo
Former Kansas second baseman Josh Kliner is waiting to hear if he will be selected in this week's amateur draft. Kliner was Kansas' first All-American since 1980.
By Dan Gelston
Kansan sportswriter
The excited tone in Josh Kliner's voice as he answered the phone from his Placenta, Calif., home and the disappointment in it as he found out it wasn't a major league team calling exemplifies the anxiety that surrounds potential baseball draft picks.
But for Kliner, who was recently named a first team All-American by *Baseball America*, that call should come soon enough.
It isn't often a team will pass on a player who put up the numbers Kliner had this year with Kansas baseball team.
Kliner's fate is now in the hands of major league scouts and teams. For the next three days, Kliner has lost control of his destiny.
"During the year, I didn't really think about things like awards or getting drafted," Kliner said. "Now, obviously, that's all I'm thinking about. I'm excited and nervous, but there's nothing I can do about it."
Kliner reached numbers this year that nobody, not even he, could have predicted. After a junior season of hitting .298, Kliner increased his average 55 points this year and finished eighth in the nation in hitting with a .438 average.
He set Kansas' single-season records for RBI (85), doubles (28), and total bases (161). His doubles total was fourth in the nation and eighth in RBI.
His list of post-season accolades is just as lengthy. He was selected first-team All-Big Eight, conference co-ployer of the year, second
team All-America by Mizuno/Collegiate Baseball and by the National Collegiate Baseball Writer's Association Smith Super Team.
Kliner's greatest achievement was being named a first team All-American by Baseball America.
He was the first Jayhawk since 1980 to be named to the team—the fifth ever—and the only player from the Big Eight this year.
Kliner came to Kansas in 1995 as a transfer from Cypress Junior College.
He was redshirted during the 1993 season at Cal. State-Fullerton. Kliner said it was a humbling experience. Not only did he not play, but coaches told him he wasn't good enough.
"I hope they looking the paper and see how far I've come," Kliner said. "They gave up on me. They didn't really stand behind me. I guess that's what makes this a little more gratifying."
Kliner's portrait will be hung in the Kansas Athletics Hall of Fame because he was selected as an All-American.
"That's so amazing that I'm going to be up there," he said. "There are so many great athletes up there like Danny Manning and Wilt Chamberlain. To be among them is pretty incredible."
Kansas baseball coach Bobby Randall said Kliner was deserving of all the awards he had earned.
"He worked hard to get these honors," Randall said. "What we'll miss most is his durability. He played every game for two straight years. There aren't a lot of players who can do that at second base."
where he's selected in the draft.
"I guess if I had a preference, I'd pick the Angels," he said. "I grew up rooting for them, and they're my favorite team. But I think any team that picked me would be my favorite team."
Kliner said it doesn't matter
Kansas baseball team may lose heralded recruit
By Dan Gelston
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas baseball team might have to play next season without one of the most heralded recruits in the school's history.
Damion Rolls, a Sch.lagle High School graduate in Kansas City, Kan., who signed a national letter of intent to play for the Jayhawks next season, was drafted by the Los Angeles Dodgers in the first round of yesterday's baseball amateur draft.
Rolls was the 23rd selection overall in the draft.
Baseball America selected Rolls
as the top high school prospect in the state of Kansas.
Rolls has not made a decision on which way he will go. Kansas baseball coach Bobby Randall said he would not push Rolls' decision.
"This could be a good opportunity for him," Randall said.
Rolls was a four-year letter winner in baseball at Schlager as well as an all-league player.
"He's the best high school third baseman I've ever seen," Randall said. "He's got above average major league speed, an above average major league arm. He got great power potential and good hands."
decision. As a late first round pick, he can command a signing bonus of $500,000 and up. However, Randall said that Rolls was happy about the possibility of playing for Kansas.
Several factors will go into Rolls
The first round picks are released today. The draft continues through tomorrow and will not be made public until 10 days after the conclusion of the draft.
Former Kansas second baseman Josh Kliner is expected to be picked in the draft, as well as junior pitcher Mario Opipari and Kansas recruit Jimmy Terrell. According to Baseball America, Terrell is the 17th-rated high
school prospect in the nation.
Kliner said he could do nothing now but wait.
"I did all I could do on the field, so, it's out of my hands now," he said. "A few teams have expressed interest."
Randall was drafted by the Dodgers out of high school in 1966 but in the 26th round. He chose collegiate play at Kansas State and was drafted again by the Dodgers after his junior year in 1969, this time in the second round. That time he went.
"If it were my son, I wouldn't care if he was the first pick. He'd go to college," Randall said.
Men's golf team performs strongly in tournament
Squad ends season at 15th in nation following NCAA Championships
By Spencer Duncan Kansan staff writer
The Kansas men's golf team finished in 15th place Saturday in the NCAA Men's Golf Championships at the par 72 Honors Course near Chattanooga, Tenn. The team shot rounds of 298, 306, 315, and 329 to finish with a total of 1,248 — 62 strokes behind tournament champions Arizona State.
"I was happy that we got into the top 15," Kansas men's golf coach Ross Randall said. "We had the chance to finish higher, but we used up so much energy early on that we were unable to play as well as we would have liked later in the tournament."
Finishing 15th in the nation isn't bad for a team that squeaked into post-season play.
The finish was a big accomplishment for Kansas because the Jayhawks had struggled through the regular season and barely qualified for the regional tournament.
"We played inconsistently all season," Kansas senior Alan Stearns said. "We felt all year we had the talent to play well with anyone, but for some reason we just struggled to play at the level we thought we could. We just barely got invited to the regional tournament."
Kansas was invited to the regional tournament in May and won the tournament, earning a place in the NCAA tournament.
"We played up and down all year, but we deserved to be in the regional," Stearns said. "Our only goal was bringing things together and playing at the level we knew we could play."
After two rounds of play the field was cut from 30 to 15. Kansas made the cut and was placed 10th. Kansas lost ground in the last two rounds and dropped to 15th place, where they finished.
"We didn't play well after we made the cut," Randall said. "The course is one of the toughest in the country, and we just didn't do well on it the last two days."
"Our only goal was bringing things together and playing at the level we knew we could play."
Alan Stearns Kansas senior golfer
Kansas was led by senior Slade Adams who shot a first-round score of 70 and was in a three-way tie for third place. However, he was unable to hold on to his lead, shooting a 78 in the second round, which knocked him down to 23rd place after the first two rounds.
"He pulled some putts and was not able to score as well," Randall said of Adams. Adams shot rounds of 77 and 76 in the third and fourth rounds, respectively. He finished the tournament in a four-way tie for 24th place. Adams had hoped to have a better showing.
"Playing well in the NCAA tournament is important," Adams said. "That is the last chance you have to make anything happen."
Kansas' Chris Thompson finished in 55th place with a four-round total of 310. Kit Grove shot a 323 to finish in 76th place, Dan Rooney finished in 80th place after firing a 326, and Stearns garnered an 82nd-place finish with a four-round total of 327.
Kansas also finished 15th in the tournament in 1993, and Randall said this year's finish provided a foundation on which to build.
"Next year is going to be an entire different team," Randall said. "We have a lot of seniors leaving, and they have set a good example. I will be happy if we can come close to what we have done the past few years."

Title eludes tennis player
Tyler Wirken /KANSAN
KU
Kansas tennis player Kylie Hunt came one victory away from winning the NCAA Division I women's title but was defeated in the title match. She was named College Sports magazine Division I women's tennis player of the year.
Kylie Hunt loses championship in three sets
By Spencer Duncan Kansan staff writer
Kylie Hunt saw her dream slip through her fingers.
Hunt, a junior on the Kansas women's tennis team, had her sights set on one thing when the season began in August.
"My goal was to win the NCAA tournament," Hunt said. "I want to play well and win during the season, but really I just want to win in the NCAA's."
On May 26th, Hunt came close to her dream.
In mid-May, Hunt entered the NCAA tournament in Tallahassee, Fla., with a season record of 45-3 and was the top seed in the tournament. She easily won 4-0 in her bracket and advanced to the championship match.
But things did not go Hunt's way in the finals.
Hunt lost in three sets, 7-5, 3-6, 3-6, to No.4 seed Jill Craybas of Florida.
"It was disappointing," Hunt said. "I really wanted to win."
Hunt finished the season ranked No.2 nationally, had a record of 49-4, and was named College Sports magazine's Division I Women's Tennis Athlete of the Year.
"Kylie has worked very hard on her game," Merzbacher said. "She has worked to become the best and she has made herself mentally
Kansas women's tennis coach Chuck Merzbacher knows how hard Hunt had worked and how disappointed Hunt was after losing the title.
sound."
Hunt, a native Australian, came to KU at the beginning of the 1995 season after transferring from North Carolina State.
"Kansas gave me more of a chance to play tough competition," Hunt said. "I just want to win and at KU I know that I have a better chance of doing that."
Hunt will do anything to win. Her doubles partner, Jenny Atkerson, sees Hunt's drive to be better than everyone else.
"She is very competitive and hates to lose," Atkerson said. "She is very focused and when she loses she won't always say it, but she is upset."
"Winning the NCAA title has been one of my goals ever since I started playing in college," Hunt said.
Hunt has one season left to capture her dream of an NCAA title.
"I will be upset if I don't win it, but there are other things out there to accomplish.
"I just want to win the NCAA title because that is the best thing that you can do."
Runners end season at NCAA tournament
By Matt Woodruff Kansan sports writer
Three members of the Kansas track and field team competed in the NCAA outdoor championships last weekend in Eugene, Ore.
Sophomore Candy Mason finished 15th in the heptathlon, and junior Mike Evers finished sixth in the decathlon with 7,612 points, earning All-American honors.
Sprinter Pierre Lisk, a junior, ran the 100-meter trials in 10.47 seconds, finishing 17th and missing the final cut by one spot.
The final Big Eight Track Championships were two days before the NCAA Championships on May 27 and 28 at Nebraska's Ed Weir Track.
Senior distance runner Sarah Heeb won the 10,000-meter run on Monday with a personal best time of 35:28.79, also the third fastest time in the University's history.
"My goal coming into the race was to qualify for nationals," Heeb said. "I was scared like a fox with those girls from Colorado on my tail. I just said to myself, 'Just sprint that last one, and I'll go to Eugene.'
Eight Jayhawks qualified for the finals on May 28. Lisk and junior Jeff Dieterich each claimed Big Eight titles.
Lisk edged Iowa State's Franklin Nwankpa for the 100-meter title, and Dieterich set a personal best with a 221-foot javelin throw.
Sophomore middle distance runner Matt Norton finished second in the 800-meter race, running a personal best 1.50:53.
Heeb followed her victory in the 10,000 meter with a second-place finish time of 16:59.73 in the 5,000 meter.
Sophomore Brian Martin took fourth in the 400 meter with his best time this year, 46.95.
The Kansas men's and women's 4x100-meter relay teams came in fourth and third, respectively.
The women's team of Carleen Roberts, Latayna Holloway, Diamond Williams, and Dawn Steele-Slavens placed third with a time of 45.78, the team's fastest this season.
The men's squad of David Cooksey, Travis Batts, Nathen Hill and Lisk posted a time of 41.00.
Overall, the Jayhawks had three top-five finishes in the competition.
In the heptathlon, Mason had a two-day total of 5,174 points for third place, and teammate junior Amber Mounday finished fifth with 4,536.
The Nebraska men and the Colorado women finished first overall.
Although the final Big Eight track meet was competitive, some felt that there should be more time between the Big Eight and NCAA meets.
Dick Weis, Oklahoma State track coach, said a break between the events would help. "Competition-wise, it was fine," he said. "But it would be much better if it took place earlier in May. With no time to rest, the runners just get too beat up."

Diving into Summer
6'
Alternatives exist for local swimmers
By Emily Redmond Kansan staff writer
With the Lawrence Municipal Pool under construction, students are being forced to find alternative swimming areas to beat the heat during the summer.
"Due to the bad weather, we don't know when the pool will open," said Kathy Fode, superintendent of recreation.
However, the Carl Knox Natatorium at Lawrence High School, 1901 Louisiana, is one of many pools available as an alternative.
"We are adding times for recreational swims and swimming lessons to compensate," Fode said. "The pool is used primarily for lessons."
The natatorium will be available for use from June 17 through the first week of July. It will be open daily from 9 a.m. to noon for lessons and from 4 to 6 p.m. for recreational swimming.
Admission for adults is $2 per visit.
Various private pools found at apartment complexes are used by residents and their guests.
"I usually go to my friend's place," said Joey Robertson, McPheron senior. "We go swimming late at night, so the manager isn't there."
Paul Gonzalez, assistant manager at the SouthPointe Apartments, 2166 Redbud Lane, said it was difficult to monitor who used the pool.
"Occasionally I go to the pool and I usually recognize the people," he said. "But if I don't, I ask them where they live."
Another place where students can cool off is Clinton Lake's Bloomington Beach Swimming Area.
"I like going to Clinton because they have a nice beach with a nice view," Robertson said.
A day-use fee, implemented two years ago, is charged by the Corps of Engineers. Fees are based on the number of people in a vehicle. The maximum cost is $3 per carload.
"You can go to the beach, as well as all the other Corps of Engineer lakes in the country, Perry Lake and Lake Jacomo included," said Jim Franz, park ranger.
Another favorite local lake is Lone Star Lake, located 12 miles southwest of Lawrence. Swimming, boating, fishing and picnicking are available.
Lone Star is open daily to the public from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. April 1 through September 1. Use of the beach is free to swimmers.

Jarod Rook, Topeka senior, splashes into the pool at Amli at Alvamar apartment complex, 3700 Clinton Parkway. Because the Lawrence Municipal Pool is still in construction, many students are having to find other places to swim. Weather delays have put the construction of the new city pool behind schedule, and it is expected to reopen in early July.
Inclement weather delays pool opening
By Dave Breitenstein Kansan staff writer
The renovated Lawrence Municipal Pool was scheduled to open Memorial Day weekend. But mud piles and water puddles are all Lawrence swimmers will have to dive into until at least July.
The Lawrence Municipal Pool, 741 Kentucky, has delayed opening because of weather-related problems. Concrete could not be poured because of cold weather and rain. Trucks also were having difficulties maneuvering around the wet facilities.
After last summer, the old pool was taken out, and construction resumed late in the year. The opening date has been postponed several times, and now the anticipated opening is early July.
"The rain has pushed the opening date back because it wasn't physically possible to work some days," said Mike Wildgen, Lawrence city manager.
Even though construction has taken longer than expected, the cost of the pool has remained at $2.8 million.
Wildgen is not worried about the loss of revenue from the pool's closing.
"We've had a cool spring. Even the pools that are open now are not really open because of the weather," he said. "We haven't really had a good swim day yet."
Despite the delays, Ernie Shaw, superintendent of construction on the pool, also is optimistic about the project.
"We knew going into this project that trying to do construction in the winter would be difficult," said Shaw. "We want to make sure it's completed right. We don't want to
"The thing that we hate the most is the inconvenience to the public."

Construction Superintendent
hurry and skip some things because the pool is going to be there for 25 to 30 years."
Because of the delay, swimmers will have only half the summer to enjoy the new pool.
Elaine Leiker, Lawrence resident, said that she and her children usually swim at the pool in the summer and that they are excited about the renovations.
"I can't wait to swim there. It's supposed to be really nice," she said. "I'm disappointed that construction has been slow."
Shaw said she felt this option was better than missing the entire season. If builders had waited until the weather improved, construction would be starting now.
"The thing that we hate the most is the inconvenience to the public," Shaw said. "Considering the weather patterns, it's going as fast as it can. Construction crews have been working six days a week for 10 hours each day."
Wildgen has one bit of advice for Lawrence residents. "Come on down when it's open."
The features of the new pool include two water slides, a larger bathhouse, a zero-depth entry area, a separate diving area and shade areas.
KANU radio show captures the imagination of country
TOM KENNEDY
The cast of KANU's Imagination Workshop will perform its nationally-aired sketch-comedy show live at Liberty Hall, 642, Massachusetts St., this Saturday.
KANU's award-winning radio comedy series Imagination Workshop will come out swinging with two shows for its 1995-96 season finale.
Imagine old-time radio with contemporary humor: a cross between Bob Ray and Saturday Night Live.
A live audience sees comedy that blends Saturday Night Live, golden age of radio
By Stephanie Fite Kansan staff writer
Showtimes are 5 p.m. and 8 p.m.
Saturday at Liberty Hall, 642 Massachusetts St.
"I weave elements together, taking bits and pieces of everything that you see and hear, and spit something out," said Darrell Brogdon, program director and writer of Imagination Workshop.
"To see it in person is like the golden days of radio," Brogdon said. "We present each situation before a live studio audience. Since they are in front of us, we receive an immediate response to what we are doing."
The comedy program, carried by more than 100 National Public Radio Stations coast-to-coast, is supported primarily through ticket sales.
The fast-paced, one-hour comedy show is broadcast on pubic radio and was inspired by the nostalgia of old-time radio and the humor of Saturday Night Live.
Roberta Solomon, a radio personality on the show, said, "It's like theater without any of the funny makeup. What's cool is knowing that what we are producing can be heard around the country."
Brogdon said: "Although we receive some funding from National Public Radio, admission provides primary support for the
Season Finale

Place: Liberty Hall, 644 Massachusetts St.

Time: 5 and 8 p.m.
cast and use of the hall."

The Imagination Workshop crew consists of professionals from Kansas City and some KU alumni. Take-offs include potshots at Sen. Bob Dole, President Bill Clinton, Ross Perot and other political figures.
However, politicians are not the only targets. Summer movies such as Flipper and Twister are also subject to Brogdon's comedic hand with a possible crossover sequel Flister.
"I might see things a bit warped," Brogdon said. "At least that's what my mother always said."

Lawrence nightlife thrives despite fewer KU students
Students find various ways to spend their summer evenings
By Gwen Olson
Kansan staff writer
Although some students at the University of Kansas leave for the summer, many opt to spend these lazy days in Lawrence.
With fewer students in town, one might assume that the nightlife in Lawrence would be less exciting.
The question of what to do on any given night still remains, but just because it's summer doesn't mean the choices are limited.
Marty McGarrigle, a cashier at Myers Retail Liquor, 902 W. 23rd St., said party life seems to slow down a little during the summer.
McGarrigle said Myers probably sells about half the number of kegs each weekend during the
summer than it does during the weekends of the school year.
Although sales are lower, many students say that parties are far from gone during the summer months.
"It's slowed down some, but there definitely still are parties," said Megan Hanna, Lawrence sophomore. "The police are also more lax during the summer."
Hanna works at the Java Break, 17 E. 7th St., a 24-hour coffee shop that provides some of the word-of-mouth advertisement of parties.
Frank Wiles, Ottawa freshman,
said he often heard of parties
while hanging out at the Java
Break.
"You hear about a lot of parties here," he said. "People say they're going, and you get the address from them."
Susan Yager, Kansas City, Kan. senior, said that the party scene is still alive in Lawrence; the parties are just a little smaller.
"You kind of see the same people out most of the time," she said. "It's more relaxed and there are less freshmen around."
Yager said advertisement of parties relies more on word-ofmouth during the summer.
Aside from parties, there are many other places where students can experience the night life in Lawrence.
Although a few bars close during the summer, most are still open and stay busy with those looking for entertainment. The Bottleneck, 737 New Hampshire, and the Granada, 1020 Massachusetts St., still hold a number of shows during the summer. Calendars for these events can be picked up at either place.
Coffee shops, like the Java Break, which is always open, and La Prima Tazza, which is open until midnight each Friday and Saturday and until 11 p.m. every Sunday through Thursday, also provide something for students to do on boring evenings.

Project Choice student graduates from KU
Kauffman project leads to student's success
By Dan Gelston Kansan staff writer
One KU graduate had more than her family and friends to thank on graduation day.
She thanked one of the most famous people in Kansas as well.
When Laura Cea graduated this year, she became the first KU student to graduate as a result of Project Choice, a program that provided financing for her education.
Project Choice, designed to encourage urban high school students to stay in school and graduate, was started by the late Ewing Kauffman.
Kauffman founded the Kansas City, Mo.-based pharmaceutical company Marion Laboratories and was owner of the Kansas City Royals.
"I wouldn't be here without Mr. K," Cea said. "He gave more than just money to come to school. He gave money back to the community. I wish he could be here to see me graduate."
Cea graduated with a bachelor's degree in human biology and is preparing to enter the KU
School of Medicine.
More than 1,000 students initially joined Project Choice. Four classes at Westport High School in Kansas City, Mo., and other selected students at Kansas City, Kan., high schools were picked for the program.
Nearly 500 students are still involved in the program.
"The students were selected merely by being enrolled at Westport during their eighth grade year," said Lynn Leonard, program director for the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation, the foundation that provides the financial assistance to the Project Choice students. "There are
other programs like this across the country but we're unique in the number of students we have."
Cea said her parents were skeptical when she told them about Kauffman's Project Choice program.
Students had to sign a four-year agreement, pledging to graduate on time with their class, avoid drug use, avoid parenthood and maintain good citizenship.
Cea is not the only member of her family to benefit from Project Choice.
She also has a younger brother in the program.

Subleases can cause student stress
Oral agreements spawn legal tangles
By Stephanie Fite Kansas staff writer
To sublease or not to sublease.
That is the question many KU students will face when searching for a new home this summer.
The number of subleases available in Lawrence varies each summer and the price of the sublease usually depends on the terms of the original lease.
Braxton Copley, staff attorney for KU Legal Services for Students, said many problems arise when students sign into a sublease.
Copley recommends that students negotiate with the landlord and sign
a contract they feel comfortable with.
"Many landlords are reluctant to write a new contract for tenants who are planning to rent for the summer only," Copley said.
"It is easy to refuse to write a new contract when there are many warm bodies on a waiting list to sublease an apartment," he said.
Under Kansas law, when the original tenant decides to break a lease contract, the landlord is obligated to make reasonable efforts to rent the apartment at a fair rental.
A subleasee, or a new tenant, takes over the original tenant's lease agreement.
Although KU Legal Services for Students advises against it, subleasing is a common practice in Lawrence.
"I wanted to sublease," said Jenny
Johnson, Garnett senior. "I'm subleasing from a friend so we have an oral contract. I don't foresee any problems."
Johnson is one of many KU students this summer who are subleasing by oral agreement.
But Copley said an oral contract is difficult to defend in court, and that both leasee and subleasee would be responsible for failure to honor the terms of the lease.
Precautions now can help avoid problems later.
"The contract must be reduced to writing." Copley said. "What happens if the sublease doesn't pay? or vise versa?"
"The lease cannot bind the subleasee the terms of an oral contract. It becomes your word against his," he said.
Read your contract: an informed renter is a protected renter. By following a few simple precautions, subleasing does not have to be a risky business.
Subleasers should know their rights
Request a copy of the original contract. As a subleasee you are bound to the original contract signed by the leasee and leasor, and you should be fully aware of each right and responsibility.
Obtain the consent of the landlord in writing and pay a sublease fee.
- Put the sublease agreement in writing. An oral contract won't hold up in court.
Go through the apartment thoroughly with the landlord and the leasee. The landlord should be aware of all damages to the apartment before you sign a contract.
- Get the home phone number and address of the leasee, as well as his parents' address and phone number. If you are held liable for damages you did not cause, it is helpful to know where the leasee will be over the summer.
If the sublease agreement is between two students, KU Legal Services for Students cannot provide assistance.

Free tickets for staff, faculty end
By Dave Breitenstein Kansan staff writer
All KU faculty and staff members will have to pay for tickets to athletic and performing arts events beginning July 1—even Chancellor Hemenway and KU athletics director Bob Frederick.
"Given the revenue needs of the theater and athletic department, the Chancellor felt that it was probably inappropriate to provide complementary tickets," said Richard Mann, university director.
Complementary tickets had been given to university administrators.
athletic department employees, facilities workers and faculty members for more than 20 years. Instead of receiving tickets for free, faculty and staff will now receive discounts of up to 20 percent.
"Administrators and faculty members historically, for one reason or the other, have gotten free tickets," Mann said.
Mann said that the theater and athletic teams are not in debt, but they each need more money.
"It's a tough business and both of them need all the legitimate revenue they can get," he said.
Tom Hutton, director of University Relations, said revenue needs are not the principle cause for change.
The monetary issue it's more of a second- or third-level issue. The primary reason for this change is to create equity." Hutton said.
"There was no rhyme or reason as to who received tickets — they just did," Hutton said. "Chancellor Hemenway reviewed who was getting them and he didn't see any distinct pattern."
Many discrepancies exist as to who receives complementary tickets. Some higher-level administrators were given tickets, while others were not.
James Haiar, Omaha, Neb., senior, said it was wrong to distribute free tickets in the first place.
"Administrators are already wellpaid, so they should not get free tickets. They should be able to afford tickets anyway," Haiar said.
Haiar also saw inequity as a key issue.
"Students have little or no money, but we still have to pay for tickets. Administrators should have to pay for tickets just like everyone else. If anyone were to receive free tickets, it should be the students," he said.
Three Swiss Red Cross workers killed in ambush in Burundi; tragedy marks latest chapter in country's history of violence
The Associated Press
GENEVA — Gunmen ambushed and killed three Swiss Red Cross workers who were completing a relief mission in northern Burundi, a central African nation bloodied by ethnic violence.
The three men were returning to the capital of Bujumbura after bringing water and medical supplies to civilians and hospitals in the northern province of Cibitoke, the International Committee of the Red Cross said.
Their four-wheel-drive vehicle, marked with the Red Cross emblem, was ambushed in Cibitoke near the village of Mugina, Red Cross spokesman Tony Burgener said. Red Cross officials in a second vehicle were fired on but no injured.The victims were identified as Burundi relief coordinator Reto Neuenschwander, 39; Juan Ruffino, 36; and Cedric Martin, 32. All were Swiss nationals.
Burgener condemned the attack, which violated the respect generally granted the relief organization and its operations around the world.
He said the Red Cross had broadcast messages on radio, and television in Burundi to explain the organization's neutrality and humanitarian goals. They also wanted to ensure its emblem was recognized and respected.
"The whole population there is cut off from water. We had to start a full operation in the region."
Tony Burgener Red Cross spokesman
"In any operation of this kind, we have Red Cross flags out as well as Red Cross emblems painted on white vehicles. This is the protection we have. The emblem is known in Burundi," he said.
The Red Cross had stepped up its mission in the Cibitoke province in recent days, he said, because the population there is cut off from water, necessitating a full Red Cross operation.
Burgener said the area had been hit hard by ethnic fighting but that he was not aware of previous attacks on humanitarian staff in the area.
Burundi has been caught in spiraling ethnic violence since 1989, when the country's democratically-elected Hutu president was assassinated in a failed coup by the Tutsi-dominated military.
The conflict killed 15,000 people last year and displaced 200,000 others. More than 100,000 people have been killed since 1993.
The Belgian Red Cross suspended its activities earlier this year after rebels stopped a Red Cross van and killed wounded soldiers being taken to a hospital. The rebels accused the Red Cross of helping the enemy.
France announced last month it was suspending its 20-man military cooperation mission to Burundi because the situation was deteriorating.
Worried by the increasing attacks on both sides, the United Nations is
seeking a commitment from member states for an intervention force in case of a major outbreak of violence.
International mediators are trying to negotiate a peace accord between the factions and avert the large-scale violence that struck neighboring Rwanda two years ago.
At least 500,000 people were killed in Rwanda in April 1994, most of them minority Tutsis killed by extremist Hutus. Another 2.5 million Rwandans fled their homes in three months of ethnic bloodletting.
Local Rwandan Red Cross workers were among those killed in Rwanda.
The International Red Cross last lost a staff member in August 1998 when a Red Cross nurse was killed in an ambush in Sierra Leone.
Cbitoke, which is virtually controlled by rebels, is the region where the U.S. Ambassador Bob Kruger was ambushed by unknown gunmen in August 1995. Kruger survived but a priest with him was killed.
Also in Cibitoke, a deputy from the National Assembly was killed in late April. Since then heavy fighting has driven 22,000 refugees into eastern Zaire. The governor of the region was assassinated May 6.
Cops grab Tiananmen mourner
The Associated Press
BEIJING — Police dragged away a woman yesterday who tried to place a bouquet of flowers at Tiananmen Square, yet most who marked the seventh anniversary of the army's assault on pro-democracy protesters did so privately.
The woman braved the certainty of arrest to carry a large bouquet of yellow chrysanthemums to the obelisk Memorial to the People's Heroes in the heart of the square.
She was close to the memorial's white marble steps when uniformed police dragged her from the square and across the street. They grabbed the flowers, forced her into a motorcycle sidecar and drove her away, leaving behind a pile of flower petals.
The brutality of the military attack in 1989 and a heavy police presence on Beijing's streets during subsequent anniversaries have largely dissuaded public commemorations.
Seven years ago, the Tiananmen demonstrations began with university students laying bouquets near the marble monument following the April 15 death of former party leader Hu Yaobang, an outspoken reformer ousted in 1987 for not halting student protests.
in the six weeks that followed, the students staged massive marches from their campuses and later began camping out in the square. Workers and others joined them.
Supported by tanks, soldiers began moving into Beijing on June 3,1989,the next day began firing into astonished crowds blocking their way.
The usual crowd of Chinese and foreign tourists filled the square Tuesday. Police were also stationed in Beijing's university district, where the 1989 demonstrations began.

Local Rwandan Red Cross workers were among those killed in Rwanda.
Cops grab Tiananmen mourner
The International Red Cross last lost a staff member in August 1993 when a Red Cross nurse was killed in an ambush in Sierra Leone.
Cibitoke, which is virtually controlled by rebels, is the region where the U.S. Ambassador Bob Kruger was ambushed by unknown gunmen in August 1995. Kruger survived but a priest with him was killed.

Also in Cibitoke, a deputy from the National Assembly was killed in late April. Since then heavy fighting has driven 22,000 refugees into eastern Zaire. The governor of the region was assassinated May 6.
BEIJING — Police dragged away a woman yesterday who tried to place a bouquet of flowers at Tiananmen Square, yet most who marked the seventh anniversary of the army's assault on pro-democracy protesters did so privately.
The woman braved the certainty of arrest to carry a large bouquet of yellow chrysanthemums to the obelisk Memorial to the People's Heroes in the heart of the square.
She was close to the memorial's white marble steps when uniformed police dragged her from the square and across the street. They grabbed the flowers, forced her into a motorcycle sidecar and drove her away, leaving behind a pile of flower petals.
The brutality of the military attack in 1989 and a heavy police presence on Beijing's streets during subsequent anniversaries have largely dissuaded public commemorations.
Seven years ago, the Tiannan demonstrations began with university students laying bouquets near the marble monument following the April 15 death of former party leader Hu Yaobang, an outspoken reformer ousted in 1987 for not halting student protests.
In the six weeks that followed, the students staged massive marches from their campuses and later began camping out in the square. Workers and others joined them.
Supported by tanks, soldiers began moving into Beijing on June 3, 1989, the next day began firing into astonished crowds blocking their way.
The usual crowd of Chinese and foreign tourists filled the square Tuesday. Police were also stationed in Beijing's university district, where the 1989 demonstrations began.

Peres, Netanyahu aim for unity
JERUSALEM — Benjamin Netanyahu met today with Shimon Peres and said they had agreed on important issues, fueling speculation that Netanyahu would ask Peres' defeated Labor Party to join his government.
The two men smiled and shook hands, and Netanyahu affectionately addressed the outgoing prime minister, once his bitter political rival, as "Shimon." The conciliatory tone was in sharp contrast to the personal attacks of the election campaign.
An alliance between Netanyahu's right-wing Likud Party and Labor would help alay the fears of Israel's Arab negotiating partners, who are worried that Prime Minister-elect Netanyahu will rengee on peace commitments made by Peres.
Netanyahu talked tough as a candidate, but since winning the elections he has been intentionally vague about his positions. His advisers are now hinting he is ready to compromise on key issues, including Jewish settlements in the West Bank and Gaza Strip, and territorial compromise on the Golan Heights.
Netanyahu's policies will be closely watched by the United
States, the main broker in the peace talks. Martin Indyk, U.S. ambassador to Israel, said after a meeting with Netanyahu today that the U.S. would work closely with him to advance the peace process.
During the campaign, Netanyahu said he would invite Labor to participate in his government, but he has not repeated the offer since. For now, he is conducting coalition negotiations with smaller religious, centrist and rightist factions.
Netanyahu won the May 29 election by just 29,500 votes out of nearly 3 million cast.
Peres didn't rule out a Likud-Labor alliance today but said Labor should wait until Likud made an offer.
He said he and Netanyahu mainly discussed security issues during their one-hour meeting, including how to prevent attacks by Islamic militants and a possible troop redeployment in the West Bank town of Hebron.
PLO leader Yasir Arafat declared Monday that Israel had no right to backtrack on its peace deals with the Palestinians. Syrian President Hafez Assad said the resumption of peace talks with Israel was out of the question for now, adding that Syria would wait to see what direction a Netanyahu government takes.
Signaling a further move to the center, Netanyahu said he would try to base his policies on a broad consensus that exists in the public in general and on issues most critical to Israel.
Asked whether he would keep Peres' promise to the Palestinians to pull troops out of most of Hebron this summer, Netanyahu said he had not made up his mind.
As a candidate, Netanyahu said he would not honor Israel's commitment, and would keep troops in Hebron, the last West Bank city under Israeli occupation, for at least three more years.
Zalman Shoval, a senior policy adviser to Netanyahu, said Israel's future leader would respect peace agreements already signed and not break promises made by the outgoing government.
But, he said, Netanyahu will also try a new approach to peace talks with Syria, pursuing limited agreements on specific issues instead of a full peace treaty with an exchange of ambassadors, as did Peres' government.
"The new Israeli government will see if there is a possibility of some sort of compromise ... which will look to incremental progress." Shoval said in an interview.
On Monday, Syrian President Hafez Assad said he was ruling out negotiations with Israel until Netanyahu made his positions clear.
Netanyahu has until July 20 to form a coalition government and win the backing of a majority in the 120-member parliament.
Yossi Beilin, Peres' top policy adviser and a key figure in the peace negotiations with the Palestinians, said today that he believed Labor and Likud could find common ground on peacemaking.
"If Netanyahu makes a respectable offer to join his government, I think it would be a mistake to turn it down outright," Beilin said.
Beilin had opposed Labor-Likud alliances in the past, saying Likud only slowed down the peacemaking. However, Beilin said the situation was different this time because there was already an existing framework for negotiations.
Israel and the Palestinian began talks on the final status of the West Bank, Gaza Strip and Jerusalem last month. Under the Israeli-PLO autonomy agreements, the negotiations are to be concluded by May 1999.

Ray Combs attempted suicide several times
The Associated Press
GLENDALE, Calif. — Former Family Feud host Ray Combs had tried for weeks to commit suicide, including banging his head against the wall, before hanging himself with bedsheets in a mental ward.
Combs, a 40-year-old father of six,
apparently was anguished over his
pending divorce, police Sgt. Rick
Young said Monday.
The host of The New Family Feud from 1988 to 1994, Combs was taken to Glendale Adventist Medical Center on Saturday with head injuries and was admitted for mental observation, Young said.
About 14 hours later, hospital staff found he had hanged himself in a closet. He left no note, and officials are not sure exactly when he died.
"He had attempted numerous times
during the past couple of weeks." Young said. "We have information that over the past several days he was banging his head against walls."
The hospital knew that Combs was suicidal, but such patients normally are not under constant watch, Young said. They are put into secured rooms supposed to contain nothing they can use to hurt themselves.
"People say those are big shoes to fill," Combs said. "I don't have to wear his shoes. I've got my own."
In a 1988 interview, Combs, a stand-up comedian, said he had no qualms about following Richard Dawson as host of The New Family Feud.
FDA approves new AIDS test
But he suffered several personal and professional setbacks in recent years, including being replaced by Dawson in 194. He was temporarily paralyzed in a July 1994 car accident.
WASHINGTON — Americans got two new tests for the AIDS virus Monday; one to more easily detect infection and the other to predict how fast patients with the deadly disease will sicken.
The Associated Press
The Food and Drug Administration called Epipc Inc.'s Orasure the first oral test that appears to be as reliable as the standard blood test to diagnose the HIV virus that causes AIDS.
Orasure uses a treated cotton pad to scrape a tissue sample from between the gum and cheek. The sample is tested for HIV antibodies, and doctors predicted wide use by people at risk for HIV but who shunned blood tests.
Patients who already know they're infected can find out just how much HIV is floating in their
blood with Hoffman-La Roche's Amplicor test, also approved Monday.
But the question is whether patients will want this test, said Curtis Scribner, the FDA deputy director of blood research. Studies show that patients with high HIV blood levels are more likely to sicken fast — but nobody knows if drugs that lower those blood levels will significantly reduce the risk of death, or even if changes in HIV amounts signal that it's time to change treatments, he said.
"We are at the cutting edge of science and medicine right here." Scribner said. "We just have not answered those questions yet."
Hoffman-La Roche will offer baseline Ampliicrosting for free to any HIV-infected patient for 60 days starting June 17. Later, the test will cost $150 to $200.
But on Monday, the FDA approved a new version of Orasure that allows Western blot testing of the oral sample instead of blood.
Doctors now gauge AIDS progression by measuring levels of an immune cell called CD4 that is a main target of HIV. But some people have no AIDS symptoms despite very low CD4 levels.
People who tested positive then had to undergo a more sensitive blood test, called the Western blot, to be sure they had the deadly virus.
The first generation of Orasure was approved in 1994, but it used a less sensitive method to screen for HIV antibodies, called the ELISA test.
Clinical trials showed the Orasure Western blot test was 99.9 percent as accurate as the traditional blood test.
"It's exactly the same," said the
"Now, that confirmation can occur right on the oral fluids," he said.
FDA's Scribner. "Many people don't like to get stuck for a blood sample, so in this case they could use an oral fluid sample."
The FDA approved the original Orapture because doctors needed a way to reach people at risk of HIV but who shunned blood tests, Scribner explained. The theory was that a positive oral test would persuade such patients to accept a little bloodletting for confirmation that they were infected.
An oral test is good for health workers, too, because they won't run the risk of sticking themselves with the needle they just used on a possibly infected patient, explained Donna Sturgess of SmithKline Beecham, which will sell the new Orasure.

Provost finalists visit campus
Marilyn Yarbrough and Richard Edwards, candidates for the office of KU provost, spoke to students yesterday in the Big 12 Room of the Kansas Union. Faculty and students will get a chance to meet with the other three provost candidates tomorrow and Saturday.
By Spencer Duncan Kansan staff writer
Two of the five provost finalists visited campus earlier this week, and the final three candidates will have come and gone by Saturday.
On Sunday and Monday, finalists Marilyn Yarbrough, associate provost at the University of North Carolina, and Richard Edwards, dean of the college of arts and sciences at the University of Kentucky, interviewed on campus.
This week will determine who will be hired as provost, according to Leonard Krishtalka, search committee member and director of the Natural History Museum.
"This is the time when everyone gets a chance to meet these finalists in person," Kristhtalka said. "During the visit is when you find out what a person is really like and that means all the difference."
The provost position was created by Chancellor Robert Hemenway in January as part of a restructuring plan. The job combines the duties of executive vice chancellor and vice chancellor for academic affairs.
Meet the provost finalists:
Yarbrough and Edwards met with students, teachers and administrators and were also interviewed by Hemenway and the search committee.

the people who make up this campus."
During their visits, Yarbrough and Edwards participated in public and student forums. They answered questions and had the opportunity to outline some of the things they would bring to the University.
Edwards said he believed restoring public confidence in the University is a priority. That means emphasizing undergraduate education and advancing research beneficial to the
state of Kansas.
"The University can improve if people are willing to support it," Edwards said. "Support is what makes an institution better."
Yarbough was a law professor at the University from 1979 to 1987.
"This is the area where I pretty much grew up," she said. "I would love to return home."
Yarbrough said her style of administrating was hands-on, and she held each employee accountable.
"I don't like to tell everyone how to
do their jobs, but at the same time I want the job done right." Yarbrough said. "If someone cannot handle something, then I will help them pull back a little, not take everything away. I want people to feel comfortable."
Yarbrough said she also believed that the University did not communicate well with the students.
The last three candidates to go through the interview process are David Shulenburger, vice chancellor for academic affairs; Nancy Marlin, vice president for academic affairs and provost at the University of Northern Iowa; and Marlene Strathe, provost and vice president for academic affairs at the University of North Dakota.
The chancellor plans to make a decision by July 1.
Weinberg said, "When all the finalists have been interviewed, the committee will make their recommendations and Chancellor Hemenway will make the final choice."

Student recalls brush with death
By Sarah Wlese Kansan staff writer
Few people can say they became famous overnight. And Mark Pullen wishes he wasn't one of them.
Pullen was the 24-year-old Overland Park sophomore who nearly drowned before being rescued by firefighters after his car was swept into a drainage ditch at the southeast corner of 23rd and Naismith by flash floods following last Wednesday's torrential rains.
Pullen has been unable to escape the ordeal, even on a weekend shopping trip to a home furnishings store in Overland Park. Two women in the store happened to be talking about Pullen while he and his girlfriend, Suzanne Norris, were looking for rugs.
"We heard it, and just looked at each other and started laughing," Norris said.
It has been hard for Pullen to believe that he nearly drowned.
"It's hard to mesh such an extreme situation with me sitting here talking," Pullen said.
A puncture wound on his left hand and a one-inch scab on his right arm are all he has to show for it.
The electricity was out when Pullen left his apartment to get doughnuts at Dillons at 11:15 p.m. He'd heard that
the thunderstorm and tornado warnings had expired; he hadn't heard about the flash flooding and didn't have a non-electric radio.
It wasn't raining hard, and there wasn't
standing water outside his apartment, near 15th and Iowa streets, Pullen said. He didn't encounter standing water until the intersection of 23rd and Naimsom. When he tried to turn in to the first entrance of the Dillons parking lot, his car hit the curb. Within seconds, his car was floating down a drainage ditch.
Hancock runs for Congress, again
Mark Pullen
Pullen's 1984 Mercury Marquis died as water surrounded the car, preventing him from rolling down his electric windows. As water began to come in through the door handles, he got out of his seatbelt and crawled into the back seat and tried to kick out the back window.
In less than two minutes his car was wedged against a bridge at the lot's west exit and the front end was submerged.

Judy Hancock announced her intention to run for U.S. Congress on the Democratic ticket yesterday at the Campanile, Hancock, a Prairie Village resident, ran for the same position two years ago.
"I begin this campaign," Hancock said, "because I have an unshakable faith that we can overcome any obstacle, meet any challenge, achieve any ambition, when we rise above narrow interests and extreme ideologies, and we work together to reach common-sense solutions for our common good."
See Student, page 5A
Hancock spoke to an audience of about 60, stressing her support of education and of the working class to give opportunities to all Americans.
"I was appalled recently when I heard one of Newt Gintrich's chief lieutenants say on national TV that he supported tax cuts for those who need it least; the wealthiest Americans," she said. "And he would pay for those tax cuts by cutting education, denying opportunity to people who need it most."
Hancock is running for Jan Meyers' seat. Meyers is retiring.
Hancock blamed the Republicans in Congress, led by Speaker Newt Gingrich, for an agenda that attempts to close the doors of opportunity for lower-class Americans.
For the past 11 years, Hancock has practiced law in the Kansas City area. In 1983, she formed her own law firm devoted to assist U.S. companies in exporting goods and services to the global marketplace.
Hancock said that more available education for Americans would benefit future generations' ability to compete in the world market.
Hancock's experience is what makes her attractive to supporters.
"She has the knowledge of how to fit Kansas into the rest of the world," said Kurt Thurmaier, KU assistant professor of public administration.
Her character is also an important factor to her supporters.
Forrest Swall, former representative and chairman of the Democratic Party, said he supported Hancock because she knew the issues and was opposed to those in Congress who would close the doors of opportunity for Americans.
1000, 900, 800, 700, 600, 500, 400, 300, 200, 100
"She has a decent chance," said Burdett Loomis, professor of political science. "She raised a couple hundred-thousand dollars this year, and when she ran against Jan Meyers two years ago, she got 43 percent of the vote. She has strong support."
Hancock's supporters are optimistic about the campaign.

Seven bicycles stolen in one day
By Shannon Sprinkel
Kansan staff writer
Seven bicycles, each using a chain and padlock, were stolen outside various buildings on the University's campus on Monday.
The crimes occurred between 9:30 a.m. and 5:00 p.m., according to Sgt. Chris Keary of the KU police.
The bicycles ranged in price from $350 to $700 and were stolen from different areas.
"We're not sure how the perpetrators are concealing the wire cutters," Keary said.
Two bicycles were stolen at Robinson Center. Thefts also occurred near Fraser, Haworth, Blake and Murphy halls. One bicycle was stolen from 15th Street and Engel Road.
graduate student, is not very hopeful that the police will recover his bicycle, which was stolen near Blake Hall.
Marc Nordberg, Minneapolis
"I was told there is slim chance of getting it back," said Nordberg. "I don't have insurance. I'm out of a bike!"
For Chad Reasoner, Overland Park senior, the outcome of his bicycle getting stolen was not as bleak. His homeowner's insurance covers it.
"My bike has been stolen before," said Reasoner, "But it was in a dark place then. I am shocked it was stolen in broad daylight right outside of Fraser Hall."
There are some preventative measures that can be taken to deter potential thieves.
Keary suggests U-locks instead of cable or chain locks
"The perpetrators knew what to bring to break the cable and chain locks," said Keary. "However, by locking a bike through both wheels and the frame, the risk of theft is reduced."
Most U-locks cost about $30 and may be purchased from bike shops and discount stores.
Another important theft prevention step is to register the bicycle.
For Claudia Bode, a Lawrence resident, having her bicycle registered could make the difference of whether it is retrieved.
"The police department said that if I turned in the registration numbers, they will put it in a national computer," Bode said. If the bicycle is ever sold or pawned, the chance of the person getting caught is much greater, she said.
Registering a bicycle costs 25
cents and is required by a Lawrence city ordinance. The bicycle's owner must submit the make, model and serial number.
During the beginning of the fall semester, bicycle registration drives will be at the Student Union Activities office, the Lawrence police department and the KU police department in Carruth-O'Leary Hall.
However, this apparent increase in crime in Lawrence is not a trend. The number of campus reports of theft have decreased from 632 in 1994 to 585 in 1995.
The Lawrence police would appreciate any tips that could lead to solving the bicycle thefts. Witnesses can call the police at 864-5572. If a crime is seen in progress, Crime Stoppers is available at 864-8888.
Storm delays road work along Naismith Drive
Kansan staff report
As the storm rolled into Lawrence last Wednesday, Jennifer Vogel and Danielle Burgeson were riding their tandem bicycle near Naismith Drive when their bike hit some debris and flipped over.
"It all happened so fast," said Vogel, Green Bay, Wis., senior.
"I'm not really sure what hit, but I think it must have been from all that construction on Naismith."
For Lawrence residents, road construction is usually a minor inconvenience. But when repairs are combined with bad weather, it can become a problem.
The road construction on Naismith Drive, between 19th Street and Sunnyside Avenue, will be delayed about one week because of last Wednesday's severe weather, said Doug Riat, associate director of design and construction management.
"When the rains came on Wednesday, we basically lost the rest of the work week," he said. "Luckily, the damage was minimal with only a little bit of erosion."
The road construction project involves replacing deteriorating metal pipes with concrete pipes to increase the water capacity of storm sewers. Riat estimated that the storm would add $2,500 to construction costs for lost labor and replacement materials.
Injured wild animals rescued, released to natural habitats
Operation WildLife rescues and releases about 70 percent of its animal orphans
Andrea Albright
Kansan staff writer
In 1995, Operation WildLife rescued about 3,000 wild animals that were shot, poisoned, struck by cars, trapped or otherwise injured in northeast Kansas.
Operation WildLife, or OWL, is a non-profit organization in Linwood that rehabilitates injured, orphaned and displaced wild animals and releases them to their natural habitats.
"Right now our biggest problems are cats and dogs," said Diane Johnson, director of the center. "Two out of three of our cases are pet-related."
Since its establishment in 1989.
the center has grown into the largest publicly-funded wildlife clinic in Kansas. The organization is staffed almost entirely by volunteers, including veterinarians, veterinary technicians, nutritional consultants and wildlife rehabilitators.
The rehabilitators are trained at the center to perform a variety of duties, from cleaning and feeding animals to "hacking out," which refers to the release stage of the rehabilitation process.
The center successfully releases about 70 percent of the animals it receives. According to the National WildLife Rehabilitation Association, the national average release rate is 49 percent.
New volunteers are always in training, but it has to turn away anyone who wants to treat the animals like pets. For survival, the animals' natural fear of humans must be maintained.
Donna Putnam, head of education at the center, said the center is always looking for volunteers.
"We've got good volunteers, but we can always use more who don't mind getting real dirty," Putnam said.
Most of Operation WildLife's work centers on the daily care and feeding of the wounded menagerie.
Some volunteers spend the day washing loads of towels or dishes. Others must prepare meals for squirrels, sparrows, coyotes and king snakes. Sometimes a meal is the recycled carcass of an animal that didn't survive.
The center also presents educational programs at schools or civic centers and special events, such as Earth Day.
These programs are designed to teaching the public to respect and appreciate animals in the wild.
These animals include a bald
Some unreleasable animals at the center are used in the presentations to exemplify the wide range of animals and injuries that the center encounters.
eagle from Yellowstone National Park that fell out of a tree after ingesting a poisoned gopher, a black rat snake that was almost stomped to death and a diamond-back terrapin turtle that was found blocking traffic on Metcalf Avenue in Overland Park.
"He was probably a pet because these turtles are not indigenous to this part of the country," Putnam said.
Over-zealous rescuers are the center's greatest foe. Often an animal that may appear to be abandoned is actually functioning normally. However, wellmeaning people sometimes are overcome by their desire to save an animal.
"The first thing to do if you find an animal is call us," Johnson said. "I would rather have 50 calls a day than unnecessarily stressing a healthy animal by bringing it to us. Let us be your eyes."

Lloyd Sponholtz, associate professor of history, teaches the History 129 Freshman Summer Institute class. The institute was established last summer to give incoming freshmen a head start on their college careers. In addition to the history class, the students are required to take Counseling Psychology 101 and complete their fall schedules.
Freshmen receive head start
By Gwen Olson
By Gwen Olson Kansan staff writer
Future Jayhawks are being offered a new program to make the transition to college smoother.
The Freshman Summer Institute provides freshman with academic help and a head start on their college careers.
"We get to find out if we're mature enough to handle things, and if we're prepared for college," said Kisses Miller, Kansas City, Mo., freshman.
The four-week program allows incoming freshman to become college students before fall.
The students stay in Ellsworth Hall and can earn up to five hours of college credit.
Students also will perform public service in the third week of the program.
Students are required to take Counseling Psychology 101 and can chose from introductory courses in history, anthropology, math, political science or psychology.
Stacey Satchell, graduate assistant in charge of programming who lives with the students, said, "The students are in class about four-and-a-half hours each day. They have been given academic advisers that will stay with them through their freshman year, who will help with enrollment and career planning."
The first session, ending June 28, has 34 participants, and the second session, beginning June 30, will have 54.
The cost of the program is $1,120.50 for residents and $2,070.50 for non-residents. A grant, provided by an alumni donation, is available for students needing financial assistance.

students will participate in the Challenge Course, held the first weekend after classes begin.
The course consists of 18 stations where students work on solving problems as a team. For example, one team had to scale a 14-foot wall.
"It was really fun, and it was a great way to get to know one another," said Rachel Buchanan, Overland Park freshman. "We had to work together in order to get things done."
The program differs from previous years because of the addition of the public service element, said Jeff Weinberg, assistant vice chancellor.
"This summer's program offers the five hours of credit and career counseling, but we've added a new portion of public service," Weinburg said.
Students will be able to choose from four public service agencies.
Deborah Boulware, director of the Freshman/ Sophomore Academic Experience, said, "We have several agencies involved in the program including Boys & Girls Club of

Lawrence.
The program was introduced at the University three years ago after Weinberg spoke to a family who had participated in a similar program in Indiana.
The students who comprise this group of freshmen differentiate the KU program from other schools with similar sessions.
"We specifically wanted it for all students who felt they were not prepared for college."
"At other schools the students consist of mostly academically at-risk or honors students," Weinberg said. "We did not want that model.
As a result, a three-week pilot program began in the summer of 1995 with 18 students, who were required to take Counseling Psychology 101 and Communications 130.
The pilot program was successful, and organizers were given the go-ahead to begin planning for the summer of 1996.
Boulware said, "We had a small group, but our retention rate last year was much higher than in other orientation programs."
Workshops also will be conducted by the Student Assistance Center and there will be informational sessions at Watson Library and the Computer Center.
"I feel we will be very successful this summer," Satchell said. "We have a great group of kids ready to dedicate themselves to working hard."
The freshman have access to the computer lab in Ellsworth and have already been issued e-mail and Internet accounts.
Speechwriter remembered for devotion to individuals
Audience of 200 honors the memory of James Scally
By Andrea Albright
Kansan staff writer
A memorial for James Scaly, who died May 8 at Lawrence Memorial Hospital, moved an audience of 200 from laughter to tears on June 7 in Swarthout Hall.
"James Scally put words into my mouth. I often threatened that I would have the last word," wrote former chancellor Gene Budig.
J. M. HENRY
Mr. Scally had been an administrative assistant to the chancellor since 1976, and was appointed assistant dean of the School of Fine Arts in December 1995.
In a letter read by former chancellor Del Shanker, Budig praised Mr. Scaly's speechwriting abilities, calling his words crisp, fair and thought-provoking.
Several associates, including two former chancellors, remembered Mr. Scally for his years of service to the University, and for his personal contributions to

the community and to their lives.
a community and to their lives.
Shankel remembered an analogy that Mr. Scally had produced for one of his speeches. It described the chancellor of a university as a conductor, and the faculty and staff as his orchestra.
Shankel said the analogy was so strong to him that it became a guiding principle during his tenure.
Shankel attributed many of his speeches to Mr. Scaly, and called him a consumate wordsmith.
"Jim, wherever you are, I want you to know I wrote this one
myself," Shankel concluded.
Harlan Roedel, University Relations, read memorials written by Scally's children and former wife, which mentioned Scally's love for music, art and literature.
Jeannette Johnson, assistant to the executive vice chancellor, read a tribute written by George Worth, professor emeritus of English. Worth knew Mr. Scally for more than 25 years and called him a man with built-in poise.
"He displayed tact, humor, efficiency, and elegance. We should not have lost him so soon. The place won't be the same without him." Worth said.
Each speaker noted Mr. Sally's idealism and commitment in fighting discrimination.
"He was a constant advocate for the less favored in this country," Shankel said.
Budig also called Mr. Scully a champion of individual rights, particularly for minorities.
"He will be missed by all, but forgotten by no one," Budig said.
KU rejects credit card tuition
Stephanie Fite
Kansan staff writer
The University of Kansas administration isn't happy.
Starting June 28, the University will no longer accept credit card payments from students to pay tuition. A new payment program, Academic Management Services, went into effect this spring, before the credit card issue arose.
"The decision to drop credit cards and go with the AMS program was adopted when Governor Graves proposed the budget," said Lindy Eakin, associate executive vice chancellor for Administration and Finance.
Graves favored this decision and allowed state institutions two years to come up with payment alternatives. However, the Legislature decided not to allow the universities the two-year buffer. The Legislature adopted the Graves budget policy immediately, choosing to implement budget cuts that ranked higher on the priority list.
those expenses."
the governor envisioned allowing universities time to come up with alternative ways to the allow for the budget cuts, however, the House and the Senate voted to take that away," said Mike Mattson, Graves' press secretary.
Instead of allowing Regents universities two years to adopt alternative payment plans, the Legislature cut subsidies paid to the universities that carry credit cards to force them to become more creative with credit card companies and payment policies.
"It all evens out in the end," said Dave Kerr, chairman of the Senate Appropriations Committee and 34th District Representative. "We are no longer reimbursing universities for credit card fees because the state should no longer have to make up for
Under Kansas law, a credit card user cannot be charged a separate fee for using a credit card. In the past, the University was able to absorb the cost of credit cards and paid the customer service fee because it received funding from the state. That amount was $450,000 a year. However, Graves' proposed budget plan, accelerated by the Legislature, cut funding to Regents universities and the schools were left to scramble.
"All Regents schools are encountering the same problem," Eakin said. "We don't think this is good business for the University or the state. It is a step backwards and we need to rectify that."
The University of Kansas, Fort Hays State University, Wichita State University, Kansas State University and Emporia State University all are affected by the accelerated budget cut.
"We have accepted credit cards for years," said Bruce Schubert, university comptroller at Fort Hays State. "We try to base our decisions to benefit the student but since we are not going to carry credit cards any more, it won't be easy to paint over."
Wichita State is in a similar predicament. "We offer credit cards, short term loans and AMS as options for students to pay tuition. However, credit cards are still up in the air," said Carlyn Barbar, office specialist at Wichita State. "If we decide to keep them, then the university will have to find a way to pay for them."
AMS, an acronym for Academic Management System, has been adopted by some Regents schools and is being investigated as an option by others. At the University, the AMS program will start June 28 and the deadline to use the service is Aug. 7. There is a $25 installation fee and tuition is divided into four installment payments with no interest. Students will receive a monthly statement and, depending upon financial aid awards and loan money received, subtract the incoming money to get the sum and divide by four to estimate the amount due.
"The University is working with the Board of Regents to come up with alternatives to the AMS program," Eakin said. "AMS planning worked for the budget cuts. We hope it serves some students needs."
The bottom line is that Graves is looking for ways to streamline the budget and save Kansas taxpayers money. Unfortunately, there is a tremendous burden on schools to come up with alternate payment programs and students to come up with the money.
"Through no fault of their own, universities and students are put in the awkward position to manage their way out of this problem without much time," Mattson said.
Since time is a consideration, the Regents met yesterday to discuss payment options.
"I think students should be able to pay with credit cards because most people manage their money that way," said Trevor Bell, Dodge City senior.
Many KU students share Bell's opinion.
"I think the four part payment is a good," said Scott Price, Lawrence junior. "However, if I ever need to and couldn't get a loan to pay for tuition, I suppose that wouldn't be nice because then I wouldn't be able to pay for school."
Ultimately, KU administrators have recognized that college students are consumers payng the university's goods and services and since the university is the supplier of these goods and services, payment should be made easy.

OPINION
UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
VIEWPOINT
Minimum wage increase would benefit students
Like a rainbow emerging from a departing summer storm, the bipartisan agreement to increase the federal minimum wage attests to the beginning of a brighter future for financially strapped students. The proposed increase from the current $4.25 an hour to $5.15 an hour is vital to the well-being of those dependent on minimum wage positions for income supplementation.
An article appearing in the U.S. News and World Report cited a recent report which found the pay of chief executive officers has jumped about 30 percent last year alone, placing their average median salary about $5 million. This increase is in sharp contrast to minimum-wage workers who have watched helplessly as their wages, adjusted for inflation, have decreased about 50 cents from the last increase in 1991. At a time when students face possible tuition increases resulting from the implementation of linear tuition, in addition to decreasing student loan opportunities, an increase in the federal minimum wage could be beneficial to KU students.
Despite strong evidence supporting an increase, opponents maintain an increase would result in fewer job opportunities as employers cut back positions to accommodate the
THE ISSUE:

The minimum wage increase would help students meet the cost of living.
increase. The ample opportunity to be employed at the minimum wage is evidence that there is not a short supply of these positions. According to the University Job Placement Center, about 1,180 student hourly positions were posted between July 1995 and June 1996, many of which were minimum wage positions. Moreover, Terry Glenn, director of the job placement center, contends that he does not foresee a negative impact on the number of student hourly positions, if the minimum wage were increased.
If terms are not agreed on to pass the increase, the value of the minimum wage will be at a 40-year low by January. Although a questionable reduction in the number of positions available would be unfavorable to those looking for a job, an even larger negative impact would be felt if an increase was not approved, as agitated minimum-wage workers contend with a decreasing value in their wages in a time of an increasing standard of living.

Clinton's tax credit plan deserves a closer look
When President Clinton proposed a tax credit last week for students' first two years of college, his plan was perceived as just another battle in the tax-cut war with Bob Dole. Campaign politics overshadowed the issue: this proposal could help some Americans continue their educations after high school.
With his tax credit plan, full-time students or their parents would receive a $1,500 tax credit, which roughly covers the one-year tuition cost at community colleges. To receive credit for the second year of college, the student must maintain a B average and refrain from using drugs. This credit would be
THE ISSUE:
Student tax credit
available only to families with annual incomes less than $100,000.
If Clinton had not made this proposal in the midst of his re-election campaign, perhaps his plan would have received the consideration it deserves.
The tax credit plan would be financed by higher corporate taxes and a $16 departure fee for passengers on international flights.
Clinton may have discovered a long-term solution to ease the cost of college education without burdening the middle-class taxpayers.

University should adopt domestic partners policy
The University of Kansas needs a domestic partnership policy for same-sex couples. Many universities grant benefits such as health care insurance to the married spouses of employees.
To grant equivalent benefits to domestic partners would acknowledge discrimination against same-sex couples. It also would correct discrimination by defining the criteria by which committed partners would be treated as family members for the purpose of granting employee and student benefits.
Unmarried people who are in committed relationships cannot enjoy these benefits because their relationships are not sanctioned by the state. Same-sex couples in particular are affected because they cannot marry.
There are inconsistencies between our policies and our practices at the University. Married students and University employees are entitled to privileges that are denied to same-sex couples.
For example, the University provides family housing for married students and spouses with or without children, and to single parents with children.
Ken Stoner, director of student housing, said last week that family housing was not extended to same-sex couples because they were not legally married.

This means that same-sex couples are ineligible because the University uses the "related by blood."
KANSAN STAFF
In the Midwest, the University of Colorado offers student housing and medical benefits for all students with domestic partners. At the University of Minnesota, employees who have domestic partners receive bereavement and sick leave, child care, medical benefits and a pension plan. The University of Chicago offers family housing, a family-leave policy and provides a tuition waiver for domestic partners who are fulltime employees.
These and other universities have dispelled objections that a domestic partnership policy could not be administered in a cost-effective manner.
The University has an enduring commitment to fair and equitable treatment of its employees and students. What kind of message is sent to students on campus when the University claims not to discriminate on the basis of sexual orientation and marital status, yet discriminates in its practices? Can the phrase "related by blood or marriage" be justification for refusing family housing accommodation and other student and employee benefits?
The material and emotional consequences for same-sex couples can no longer be ignored.
Christine Robinson is a Lawrence doctoral candidate in sociology.
KU instructors provide a superior education
they offer to married couples to domestic partners.
I appreciated Jeremy Lind's editorial on June 5 defending University of Kansas teaching assistants after Johnson County Community College ran a recruitment ad implying that the instruction at JCCC was superior to that offered by KU. I would like to make a comment based upon my comparative experience teaching at both JCCC as a part-time instructor and at KU as a teaching assistant. JCCC relies heavily on part-time faculty to teach their courses. In 1994 JCCC employed more part-time than full-time faculty, and the way that JCCC compensates part-time instructors increases the likelihood that JCCC students will receive inferior instruction.

marriage or adoption" criterion to define a family.
Nothing legally prohibits the University and the Legislature from instituting a domestic partnership policy for same-sex couples. Many universities in the country have instituted these policies despite anti-marriage laws. The University is implying that it chooses not to extend its definition of family and benefits to same-sex couples.
How the University defines "family" has serious ramifications for all students. The st and a r d excludes many students who form family units on the basis of a choice that the law does not recognize.
TOM EBLEN General manager, news adviser
Extending domestic partner benefits to same-sex partners is a policy consistent with the University's nondiscrimination policy and Lawrence's human relations ordinance. Our goal at the University should be equal access to all employee and student benefits. The issue here is to make practices comply with University policy and city law and to eliminate discrimination.
An increasing number of universities now extend the benefits that

I prefer the first option of making swimsuit shopping easier on everyone. For now, we in Lawrence are lucky. We are free of the shopping burden this year, knock on concrete. And I am glad I chose not to go home this summer.
But if that's not possible, then let's have men go through the same trials women endure. Let them wear Speedos. Let the Speedos come randomly sized so that each pair must be tried on to ensure a proper fit. Let them be padded and elasticized and hard to get in and out of. Not that I'm vengeful, but I would like equality in the shopping experience.
tants receive financial support that allows them to dedicate themselves to their teaching responsibilities. KU teaching assistants are not without competing demands on their time. However, the non-teaching activities that compete for the time of KU teaching assistants, coursework and research projects, are directly related to their professional development and contribute to their competence in the classroom.

Doesn't the men's shopping experience sound less traumatic? Wouldn't it be fairer if we had parity in swimwear? It would save women selection time, and they could feel less self-conscious about their bodies if swimsuits were loose-fitting and the choices were small, medium and large.
JCCC implies that their "real" part-time instructors provide better instruction than KU teaching assistants. This seems unlikely. JCCC pays their part-time faculty about $1,200 for each three credit hour course and limits part-timers to two classes per semester. Part-time faculty can earn about $2,400 each semester with absolutely no meaningful benefits. To make ends meet, JCCC part-time instructors frequently must find additional employment, spreading thin the energy and time that they can devote to their teaching. Even the most dedicated and conscientious part-time instructor finds that the quality of teaching suffers: one simply cannot afford to give essay examinations, read papers or spend days preparing lectures.

For some people, buying a swim-
Last year, I accompanied a male friend on a shopping trip for a pair of trunks. We would "drop by" to "pick up" some trunks, as he put it. In the store, he went toward the single rack which had 10 pairs of trunks of varying fabrics hanging on it. He looked them over, chose the green, checked the size and said, "OK, let's go."
"You're not going to try them on?" I asked. "Why?" he said. "These are medium. That should work." He sounded so certain.
We sift through the infinite array of suits for those which meet our needs, and we take at least 20 to the dressing room. The "limit three" rule is unofficially suspended during the swimsuit season. What woman could try three suits — or even any low multiple of three — and find one she likes?
Compared with female swimsuit shopping, this was amazingly simple. In department stores each summer, countless women wade through a sea of swimwear to find that elusive swimsuit they like and look good in. There are suits to maximize or minimize the bust, deemphasize hips and trim the waist. Each is equipped with the elastic, padding or a pattern that does the trick. This gives the illusion that swimsuit manufacturers want to help you.
Pool closing spares women summer agony of swimsuits
This may sound unkind but I'm glad the pool isn't open this summer. We should thank the bad weather and slow construction for allowing us to breath a collective sigh of consumer relief. This year we can escape the annual torture of buying a new swimsuit.

Student recalls near-drowning
Continued from page 1A
Ironically, Lawrence firefighters were already on the bridge, having just rescued two people stranded in a tree in the same ditch.
Pullen said seeing the firefighters kept him from panicking.
"It's scarier to lose control than to accept that your life is in someone else's hands for one minute," Pullen said.
He had been breathing from an air pocket inside the back window, but when he went up for his last breath, his mouth couldn't reach the air.
"So I leaned back and shoved my head up as hard as I could and got my last breath through my nose," Pullen said.
By this time, Lt Joe Schumburg of the Lawrence fire department was tied to the bridge and standing on the back of the car, trying to break the back window with an axe.
Pullen said he'd been holding his breath for about 30 seconds

when Schaumburg's axe broke through the glass. Pullen said he felt more victorious than relieved.
"When I heard the crack and shot my hands up through the hole, I felt like I had won." Pullen said. "I felt exhilarated by the fact that I got out and had somehow cheated death."
Schaumburg and two other firefighters pulled Pullen from the car to safety.
Schaumburg said he was relieved that Pullen was conscious and alert. Pullen didn't need to seek medical attention until the next day.
Norris said she started worrying after about 30 minutes, figuring Pullen's car had stalled.
When Pullen called from Dillons minutes later and explained the situation to Norris, she said she was in shock and she didn't understand what had happened.
Pullen's father, Chuck, was also on the road that night. The self-employed cab driver from Topeka was driving four Amtrak passengers from the Kansas City area to Emporia to bypass flooded areas and didn't get home until 8 a.m.
He had glanced at the news and saw the car in the drainage ditch but didn't recognize it.
Chuck Pullen's cordless phone was acting up, producing a false busy signal when Mark tried to
call. He said he didn't find out about the incident until he called his son at about 3 p.m. Thursday.
"I called to see how he was doing," Chuck Pullen said. "I said, 'Did you get washed away by the flood?' and he said, 'Dad, I owe you a car.'"
Chuck Pullen said the car only had liability insurance, meaning it only covers damage to other vehicles. The car was a total loss; no parts could be salvaged.
Mark Pullen said that since the ordeal he has had a hard time sleeping and had a horrible headache for three days, a result of banging his head for the final breath in the car.
He returned Monday to work in the KU purchasing office and to his CHEM 188 class.
He said he had been catching himself replaying the scene in his mind an e-revaluating what he did to save himself.
"The worst thing is that I get mad at myself because I'll think of things I could have done differently," Pullen said.

Olympics bring high prices
Attendants may dole out $3.25 for a beverage
The Associated Press
ATLANTA—Olympic officials expect spectators to be hungry enough to eat the hefty prices featured at concession stands during the world's largest sporting event this summer.
Because ticket holders won't be allowed to bring food or drinks — except plastic water bottles — into Olympic venues, they will form a captive audience for $4 hot dogs, $3.25 Cokes, $3.25 popcorn and $4.50 beer.
And try this for Olympic sticker shock: $4 for a liter bottle of water that sells at grocery stores for less than $1.
The concession prices for the Summer Games are higher than the average for major league sports arenas across the country. But the Olympic Games are no
ordinary sporting event.
Olympic spectators, typically well-heeled compared with the average bleacher fan, likely will take the menu prices in stride, said Jed Pearsal, a sports marketing consultant whose firm tracks consumer habits.
"It's not a hard sell," Pearsall said. "In almost every event, people will respond, 'It's high, but we expect it.'"
Officials defend the prices, saying they are naturally higher for a major event like the Olympics, just as they would be for a major hotel.
"I don't know the last time you went into the Ritz-Carlton, sat down at the bar and ordered a Perier, but you're probably going to pay $4.50," said Scott Anderson, managing director for games services with the Atlanta Committee for the Olympic Games.
For those who are merely thirsty, Anderson said, free water will be available at all Olympic venues.
something to quench their thirst,
there is free water ... so it is a choice that you or I make as a consumer."
"Water is a beverage when it's in a container like that and is served at a concession stand," he said. "For those that are looking for
Spectators got a glimpse of the cost of Olympic refreshment last month during the Atlanta Grand Prix, a track meet that inaugurated the Olympic Stadium. The new stadium gets one more pre-Games workout when the U.S. Olympic track and field trials begin Friday.
The wide selection and quality offered at Olympic concessions justify the prices, Anderson said.
"I think they are reasonable and comparable with similar sporting events of this caliber — the Super Bowl, the World Series, the NCAA Final Four." Anderson said.
While an Olympic soft drink could set you back $3.25, the average price for a soda is $1.75 at NFL stadiums, $1.82 at NBA arenas, $1.81 at major league baseball parks and $1.85 at NHL venues, according to Chicago-based Team Marketing Report Inc., which publishes an annual survey of concession prices at big league sporting events.
The Olympic prices are comparable to those for Atlanta Braves games, ranked as baseball's most expensive in the Team Marketing Report survey.
But Pearsall, president of Performance Research in Newport, R.I., said the premium prices contribute to the perception that the games are becoming merely an oversized pro-sports event.
Not only refreshments will strain the pocketbook. Souvenir stands inside the venues also will offer specialty items at higher prices than the standard fare available elsewhere.
For example, spectators attending basketball at the Georgia Dome can buy exclusive T-shirts. A basketball T-shirt, available only at the Dome, will cost $25, compared with $18 for the cheapest regular Olympic shirt.
General merchandise, such as shirts with the Centennial Games flame logo, will cost the same both inside and outside the athletic venues, Anderson said. ACOG has several retail outlets in the Atlanta area as well as a huge souvenir store at the Centennial Olympic Park.
Men's tennis coach resigns unexpectedly
Kansan staff report
Kansas men's tennis coach Michael Center, who led the Jayhawks to three consecutive Big Eight Conference championships, unexpectedly resigned yesterday.
His resignation is effective at the end of the summer when he will then accept a position in a private business.
"I've had the opportunity to coach at my alma mater and serve as player, an assistant coach, and both a men's and women's head
coach," Center said. "It has been an incredible experience and one that I will always treasure. It's hard to leave Lawrence and the University of Kansas, but I have a great opportunity in the the business world."
Center began his Jayhawk career as a four-year letter-winner on the tennis team from 1983 to 1986. As a junior in 1985 he won the Big Eight No. 2 singles championship.
Center began his head coaching career in 1990 with the Kansas
women's team. He coached them for two years before accepting the men's team coaching position in 1993 as well as becoming director of tennis.
Center leaves at the top of his coaching game, having led the Kansas men's team to a single-season record 25 victories, its third consecutive conference title and second consecutive trip to the NCAA Tournament.
Overall, Center compiled a 122-56 record in seven seasons.
He was also named the Region V
Coach of the Year for the past three seasons.
Kansas Athletic Director Bob Frederick said Center will be missed.
Michael Center's contributions to the Kansas tennis program have been immense and are greatly appreciated," Frederick said. "He was a fierce competitor as a player and he carried that spirit through his entire coaching career. We appreciate all he has done for the University and wish him well in his new career."
Bulls could claim title of best ever
Chicago's record could be highest winning percentage
The Associated Press
SEATTLE — One more victory, and the Chicago Bulls can rest their case for being called the best of all time.
The way Chicago has manhandled the Seattle SuperSonics, a team that won 64 games in the regular season, has left just about everyone agreeing the Bulls are at least among the finest to ever play the game.
The numbers argue in the Bulls' favor. Since the season's first tipoff last November, Chicago has won 86 games and lost 11.
The Bulls' regular-season record of 72-10 is the best ever. If Chicago completes its sweep of the Sonics in the NBA Finals tonight, the Bulls will finish the playoffs 15-1.
That winning percentage .938) would be the best ever, surpassing the 1983 Philadelphia 76ers, who went through the postseason at 12-1.
Bulls coach Phil Jackson refers to that Philadelphia team, and the 76ers' 1967 championship队, as the two he feels might have been as good as these Bulls.
"This is one of those teams that has been very dominant, very directed. Not overpowering like those teams were in size, but I think mentally and physically very strong." Jackson said. "And as a group, the chemistry has been great."
Many have argued that Chicago's victories came at a time when the quality of players has been diminished because of expansion.
"But there was expansion in those years, too," Jackson said. "I think the Chicago Bulls were an expansion team in 1966."
And there are no expansion teams in the playoffs, where that 15-1 record arguably would be more impressive than the 72 regular-season victories. Chicago's playoff winning streak reached nine with its 108-86 victory against the Sonics on Sunday.
"That's the one thing I will say about Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen and maybe Dennis Rodman, although I haven't been with him in that many playoffs, is that these guys, once they get a grasp on a team, seem to be able to turn the screws down more and more," Jackson said.
Probably no team has dominated awards the way the Bulls have. Jordan is the MVP, receiving 109 of 113 first-place votes. Jordan and Pippen are all-NBA first team. Jordan, Pippen and Rodman are on the all-defensive team. Toni Kukoc won the Sixth Man Award. Jackson is the coach of the year. General manager Jerry Krause is the executive of the year. Jordan won the scoring title. Rodman won the rebounding title.
Now Krause faces the daunting challenge of keeping Jordan, Rodman and Jackson happy with new contracts after this season.
Jackson would not talk about his future Monday, saying the time for that is after the playoffs. Krause would not talk specifics, either, but he cautioned against comparing his coach's potential salary with the amount used to lure John Calpari to the New Jersey Nets, reportedly $15 million during five years.
"John Calipari is being paid to do two jobs," Krause said. "He's being paid to coach and general manage. So you have to find out what's allocated to coaching and what's allocated to general manager."
But, in the case of Jackson, what do you allocate for four championship rings?

Big Eight dead at age 89
Big 12 Conference to be born on July 1
By Matt Woodruff Kansan sportswriter
It all began in 1907 when the Big Eight Conference was founded at the Midland Hotel in Kansas City, and it will come to an end in less than one month.
July 1 will mark the death of the storied Big Eight and the official birth of the Big 12, an alliance between Big Eight teams and former Southwest Conference schools Baylor, Texas, Texas Tech and Texas A&M.
Most Big Eight schools view this as a merger, while the consensus in Texas is that this is a new confer-

conference, and one that we're
extremely excited about."
ence altogether.
Wally Groff Texas A&M Athletic Director
"In the Southwest, we don't necessarily agree that the Big Eight is becoming the Big 12," said Wally Groff, Texas A&M athletic director. "It's a new conference, and one
Despite the disagreement, it is clear that the Big 12 will be a very competitive conference.
that we're extremely excited about."
Conference basketball will also be extremely competitive.
"I think we will be the top or one of the top conferences in every sport we compete in," Groff said. By adding four quality football programs, the caliber of play should improve. With two-time national champion Nebraska, ten-game winners Kansas, Kansas State, Colorado and Texas, and nine-game winners Texas A&M and Texas Tech, The Big Twelve will rank among the country's strongest football conferences.
With the return of senior guard Jacque Vaughn, Kansas will be among the teams favored to win a national championship. Although
football is more popular than basketball in Texas, both Texas and Texas Tech made inspired efforts in the NCAA Tournament and should come on strong next year.
Competition will be fierce, yet most coaches look forward to the challenge.
"I'm excited about it," said Bobby Randall, Kansas baseball coach. "It's going to be a tough conference. Baseball is going to be a meat grinder. If you're looking for easy competition, the Big 12 is not the answer. But the competition between so many ranked teams will also attract more high-caliber athletes, and I really look forward to it."
The Kansas softball team started its Big 12 play last season, finishing the regular season with a 31-25 overall record. They finished with a 10-12 record in the conference.

Kansas loses players
By Dan Gelston
Kansan sportswriter
The season may be over, but the Kansas baseball team is still racking up losses.
Only this time it's on the personnel front and not on the field.
two former and two potential Jay-hawks were selected in last week's draft while one signed as an unrestricted free agent.
Kansas learned on Sunday that it would be without its heralded recruit, Schlagle High graduate Damion Rolls. Rolls signed with the Los Angeles Dodgers after he was the 23rd overall pick in the first round.
Kansas baseball coach Bobby Randall wasn't too surprised with Roll's decision.
"It's disappointing because he's the type of young man I love to be associated with and have on my team," he said.
Although Rolls didn't reveal how much money he signed for, it was expected to be more than $500,000. But Randall said money probably didn't factor into the decision.
"It wasn't a money thing, although it was a lot of money," Randall said. "But to carry that burden for three years of having to be the No. 1 draft

choice is a lot to carry. It was a hard decision for him. He told me if he was drafted in the second round, he would have come to Kansas."
Rolls was not the only Kansas recruit to sign a professional contract.
Missouri native Jimmy Terrell was a third-round pick of the Chicago White Sox and opted to sign with them on Monday rather than come to Kansas.
Kansas juniors Isaac Byrd and Mario Opiari were selected by the St. Louis Cardinals and Minnesota Twins respectively.
And Opipari, although a 53rd-round selection, said that if the price was right, he'd leave Kansas.
Byrd, a St Louis native who doubles as a wide receiver for the Kansas football team, was drafted in the 11th round but has decided to stay at Kansas
"It depends on how I'm treated money-wise," Oipiari said. "I just want to be treated fairly. Hopefully I'll get one or two years of school paid for. Money's not the only thing though.
"If everything was all right, I'd probably go. I'm read to go out and play."
Randall said on Monday he wouldn't be surprised if the three remaining unsigned players left Kansas.
Rowing team uses season to prepare for future
"I do have a sense these guys will go given the circumstances," he said. "It's hard for our team from that standpoint, but the big part is about caring for what's best for them."
Kansas senior All-American second baseman Josh Kliner was surprisingly not drafted, but did sign as an unrestricted free agent with the Arizona Diamondbacks, an expansion team that begins play in 1998.
Team finishes season in Ohio
By Matt Woodrutt Kansan sportswriter
Although the Kansas women's rowing team didn't finish its first season as it might have liked, the team made important strokes for the future.
However, Rob Catloth, Kansas rowing
coach, said the team did not perform in the National tournament as well as it had hoped.
"This competition was definitely a building block, and hopefully the underclassmen will carry it over to next year," he said.
The Kansas women's rowing team finished its season on June 8 at the Collegiate National Rowing Championships in Cincinnati, Ohio.
Kansas finished fifth in the Lightweight Four after two teams were disqualified for lane violations. The four teams that finished ahead of Kansas were, in order of finish, Radcliff, Villanova, Wisconsin and Massachusetts. In the Varsity Four, Kansas crossed the finish line in fourth place behind Mills College, Wesley and Wisconsin.
Most coaches were pleased with the level of competition, including Villanova rowing coach Jack Sinclair.
"I would like to see a move into the women's eight instead of just the four," Sinclair said. "But I really couldn't ask for any better competition. It always came
down to the last 150 meters."
Maggie Romens, Kansas varsity rower, said that the long season, which began in August, will provide valuable experience for nextyear.
"This year we definitely set a standard for our success in the future," Romens said. "We came out of this year having learned a lot. Personally, it was my third time here. This year we were very confident and not as intimidated. We had good equipment, and I think the team members competed at their personal best due to the work we did to strengthen ourselves during the season."
Cattloth said that the competition at Nationals was good experience for next year's season, and that he is looking forward to next season.
"It was a great first year, and the competition was top-notch. The goal next year will be to build on what we've already got. The wheels are rolling, and the people returning next year have a lot of talent and good attitudes." Catloth said. "Over the next two or three years, we'll strive to be one of the top crews here in the Midwest. I think we have to do that first, then we can concentrate on becoming one of the best nationally."

Mixing skinheads,ska and society

Lawrence skinheads Alley Speight, Kitty Steffens, Tom Paszkiewicz and Mike Johnson hang out in Tom's front yard for a laid-back evening of barbecue, beer and dominoes. All

four, and most other Lawrence skinheads, consider themselves anti-racist despite the way others stereotype them.
By Adam Ward Kansan staff writer
"I don't know what it is, but every city I'm in, I always end up sitting and drinking on somebody's roof," says Lawrence skinhead Tom Paszklewicz. He's one of five skinheads sitting in white plastic lawn chairs on the roof above G Willikers restaurant, behind Kitty Steffens' second-floor Massachusetts Street apartment.
Steffens favors a punk-rock girl style haircut,
dued Courtney Love-blonde with black roots.
Paszkiewicz, a heavyset 30-year-old gas station manager, stares reflectively at the side of a building caked with white paint. His T-shirt, shorts and shaved head make him look younger.
The smell of warm urine stings the air, remnants from when Paszkiewicz and Mike Johnson, a younger skinhead, splattered jets of what must have been pure Pabst Blue Ribbon, Lawrence skinheads' beer of choice, while aiming for a dumpster in the alley below.
There's something about drinking on a roof, Paszkiewicz observes, kind of like getting above the garbage of the street.
Skinheads deal with this external hostility by listening to music and creating close relationships with each other.
Ska, a music more danceable than reggae but sharing the same rhythm guitar beat, is a temporary escape for the skinheads from their uneasy relationship with society.
"All my skinhead influences are from the ska scene," Paszkiewicz says. "That's how I got to know the skinheads in Kansas City."
An incomplete picture
"What about skinheads?" reads the second subhead of an August 16, 1990, Wall Street Journal article about the deaths of Native Americans in Lawrence.
"The term skinhead usually refers to young neo-Nazis with shaved heads or close-cropped hair, who wear jeans, suspenders and heavy black work boots and who advocate violence in the name of white supremacy," writes Ann Hagedorn. "The sheriff confirms there are such people hereabouts. But he says there are 'copycats' who dress like skinheads but don't exhibit overt racism."
Media coverage like that infuriates the skinheads. Paszkiewicz says the Lawrence skinheads were persecuted for more than a year after the Wall Street Journal article about the hit-and-run murder of 19-year-old Native-American Christopher Bread.
The Lawrence police were "interviewing" local skinheads while they were at their jobs, he explains. The skinheads saw that as harassment.
Eventually, the police charged Marvin Schaal with the crime, someone Paszkiewicz describes as "a metal-head kid with long hair."
The court dismissed the charge of vehicular homicide against Schaal, but the case was a kind of vindication for the skinheads.
Paul Paukstelis, Manhattan junior, dresses traditionally except for the nearly invisible stubble on his head.
Paukstells estimated there were 15 skinheads in Lawrence,30 in the Kansas City and Leavenworth area and 15 in Manhattan.
"I think there is more media coming out now saying skinheads are racist, showing the radical groups," Paukstelis says. "No one would care about working-class Joes like us who go to work, come home and drink beer."
Howard Hanna, Manhattan junior, is another local skinhead. He lives with Brandy Springer, his skinhead girlfriend, and Pauktelis. Hanna says,
"People would rather read about Nazis than focus on regular people. It's natural that the media focus on the negative."
Alley Speight has platinum-blonde hair buzzed except for her bangs, which ride low across her forehead. Most people have skinhead history all wrong, Speight says. Television shows like Investigative Reports on the A&E cable channel are inaccurate when they say skinheads started with mohawks and black leather jackets in the punk and white-power movements of the 1980s.
Lawrence's self-proclaimed "true" skinheads call the racist skinheads "boneheads." But Paszkiewicz says the media only show what the boneheads are doing, perpetuating the negative associations.
The media are skinheads' worst enemies, Paszkiewicz says.
What are skinheads?
Paukestelis says skinheads have pride in their fellow skinheads and pride in themselves, which is expressed through a style of dress.
Like Buddhist monks, shaving their heads to renounce the world, skinheads make a statement about their environment through their unique appearance.
Being a skinhead leads people a culture that isn't present in the Midwest, Pauktelis savs.
The only way to become a skinhead is to be
accepted as one by other skinheads, Paukstellis says.
Hanna says the original skinheads evolved in the 1960s when English working-class teen-agers came in contact with Jamaican immigrants in factories in England.
The English teen-agers admired the Jamaicans' dignity, suits and closely shaven haircuts, Paukstelis says. The English youths adopted the dress of the Jamaican immigrants, who called themselves "rudeboys."
The skinhead movement in England was one or the first multi-ethnic social movements, Hanna says.
The movement was resurrected in the early 1980s with punk rock.
Lawrence skinheads are attempting to continue this tradition, Paulksteils says.
Skinheads became associated with racism when the National Front, Britain's socialist party, began dressing members of its party like skinheads, Paukstelis says. They were trying to use the skinheads' aggressive image to intimidate people.
Local skinheads shave their heads and wear white T-shirts and jeans. But the dress code breaks down among the older generation, who no longer need to superficially associate themselves with other skinheads. Skinheads of both sexes decorate their bodies with thick-lined tattoos, many referring to music or being a skinhead.
Dealing with police
On the way to Steffens' apartment from the Replay Lounge, 946 Massachusetts St., Steffens and Paszkiewicz stop at G Willikers, 733 Massachusetts St., for soft drinks.
"Did you see the way everybody in the place turned around and looked at me when I came in?" Paszkiewicz asks Steffens. The place is a police bar, he explains.
"The Lawrence police say I'm the leader of the Aryan Nation," Paszkiewicz says.
He also claims the Lawrence police began keeping files on skinheads since he came to Lawrence in 1987.
Lawrence police deny that they keep the skinheads on the gang file, says Sgt. Susan Hadl, Lawrence police press officer.
"We are not about the business of stereotyping populations," Hadi says.
But Paszkiewicz says, "The police attitude is to treat us as a street gang or a terrorist organization."
He complains that no matter how much they cooperate with the police, the law still tries to pin everything from graffiti to the death of Christopher Bread on skinheads.

Consumer products play supporting roles in many movies
The Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — Here's the swing—and the pitch.
You have to look closely, but Kevin Costner packs a Taylor Made Burner Bubble driver in his
Pit Sap gon bag. Tom Cruise surfs the net on an Apple PowerBook 5300 in Mission: Impossible. Pierce Brosnan's Goldeneye James Bond has traded up to a BMW Z3 Roar
B. G. BURTON
Tin Cup golf
Kevin Costner
BMW Z3 Roadster. And Demolition Man's Sylvester Stallone dines at a Taco Bell.
Consumer products have never played a more prominent co-starring role in the movies, and the
marketing doesn't stop on screen. In a multi-million dollar effort to cash in on hit films, companies are laying out huge sums to become promotional partners with Hollywood blockbusters — even when their product doesn't appear in the movie.
For the manufacturers, the advantages are twofold. For minimal cost, a product can share the screen with Bruce Willis or Julia Roberts. And with the right advertising campaign, something as dull as a hamburger can enjoy a fortune of brand-name publicity. Reese's Pieces got a huge boost from E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial, and Toy Story sparked an avalanche of once-defunct Slinky Dog sales.
In the last several months, McDonald's, PepsiCo, Apple and BMW have shelled out millions to become promotional partners with Hollywood's top filmmakers. McDonald's pact with Disney
doesn't mean Big Macs will start appearing in animated musicals, but McDonald's will be Disney's primary promotional partner for 10 years.
"More and more marketers are trying to do movie promotions," said Dean Ayers, president of the Entertainment Resources and Marketing Association. "Today's films are a major force in creating icons and showing what's hip and trendy. They drive people into the stores."
For the studios and filmmakers, the placement and promotion deals are a sure-fire daily double. Products lend a movie real-world authenticity, and can help defray costly prop and wardrobe budgets. More important is the free advertising: BMW and Apple spent $15 million apiece advertising Goldeneye and Mission Impossible. Taylor Made will run Tin Cup ads in seven golf magazines — and Warner Bros. won't
spend a dime.
Just like studio executives, marketing experts struggle to pick which film will — or will not — be a hit. And even with a filmmaker's promise, a product placement can backfire.
Black & Decker paid to have a drill featured in one of the Die Hard movies, but the power tool landed on the cutting room floor. Coca-Cola successfully asked Oliver Stone to cut a Coke commercial from the ultraviolet Natural Born Killers. Orkin lent its pest-control name to Pacific Heights, but was aghast (and later sued) when the movie depicted an Orkin technician as a hopeless dolt.
Many films do not lend themselves to product placement and promotional tie-ins. Jack Daniels, for instance, would have been crazy to sign on with the alcoholic drama *Leaving Las Vegas*. The babs-and-burgers chain Hooters
"They can be both obvious and subliminal at the same time," says Michael Schau, the executive editor of the Entertainment Marketing Letter, a trade publication. "You could be seeing a lot more Chrysler than you imagine."
Such is the case with Taylor Made golf clubs.
Some people have criticized Apple for their products appearing in Mission: Impossible. Although Cruise's character spends much of the film typing on a computer keyboard, it's not always clear he's working on an Apple. The fancy BMW also didn't get much screen time in Goldeneye — Bond clearly still favors an Aston Martin.
Some product plugs are almost unnoticeable.
turned down a chance to cross-promote the even lower-rent Shougirls.
As part of the Tin Cup plot, Roy McAvoy (Costner) doesn't have
Don Johnson, who stars opposite Costner as a PGA pro, doesn't have to disguise his brand. His clubs — and golf bag — all say Taylor Made. Johnson's golf hat, thanks to another product placement deal, is from Nissan.
access to fancy sponsors and top-of-the-line equipment: he's a back-road hustler. Costner personally golfs with Taylor Made metal woods, so the film's prop department took sandpaper to such a club, gave it a wood-grain paint job, and passed it off as a steel-shafted persimmon driver.
Cast and crew members say the real benefit of product placement is free loot.
Taylor Made has given away valuable golf equipment to two dozen Warner Bros. executives, and Nike is loved throughout Hollywood for showering everyone down to the bagel boy with free shoes and sporting goods.

Lawrence grocers hope shoppers think their store is the one with lowest prices.
Comparison of 10 items at Lawrence grocers
PRICE COMPARISON
For Rohr, Hy-Vee and Food 4 Less have the best prices. He occasionally shops at Dillons because of double and triple coupons.
"Akins' ICA does not carry iron Kids bread so the total is figured without it.
Ken Keefer, Dillons director of advertising and public relations, said, "We are very aware of and sensitive to the competitive market that we're operating in. We try to maintain a very competitive position on the most shipped-for items."
Keefer said factors other than price also drew shoppers to the three Dillons stores in Lawrence.
"No one can make the claim of having all the low prices," he said.
Dillons does not always have the lowest price on a particular item, Keefer said.
Keller said Hy-Vee's low prices and sale items also helped business.
"With it being such a large, spacious store and having the help that we do on hand, it makes it very convenient for everybody," Keller said.
"We make an excellent presentation of a good product. What sets us apart from the rest is the overall atmosphere and presentation of the store." Keefer said.
Bridgette Keller, assistant food store manager of Hy-Vee, 3504 Clinton Parkway, also said the shopping environment was the key to selling groceries.
Valerie Huffman/KANSAN
As with Dillons, Keller said Hy-Vee's prices were not what drew most customers into the store. "We have the fastest, friendliest service in town." she said.
Jim Lewis, owner of Checkers, 2300 Louisiana St., said service is important, but low prices
were his store's main attraction. Lewis said quality and price were the two factors that place Checkers ahead of the other stores.
"Our prices are lower than almost everybody on everything," Lewis said. "There are exceptions to that. I'm sure I get beat every once in a while."
Lewis said he strived for low prices by checking competitors' prices weekly. One reason for low prices at Checkers is related to its physical structure.
"Our shopping environment is pretty basic. We don't have a lot of glim and glitter," he said.
Lewis said the extras found in other stores led
to higher prices.
Jim Roberts, manager of Alvin's IGA, 901 Iowa St., said he made sure prices were comparable to other Lawrence stores. But he said Alvin's IGA was a smaller store.
"You can't compare full-service stores and small grocery stores. It's like comparing apples and oranges — they are totally different," Roberts said.
"Our prices are very good, and we have quality meats and produce," he said.
SuperTarget, 3201 Iowa St., also tries to have competitive prices. Greg Williams, grocery team
Coupons can bring big savings to customers who use them
By Dave Breitenstein
Kansan staff writer
Allan Holt doesn't believe it is worth the effort to cut coupons.
"I have used coupons in the past, but I'm too lazy to go find them," said Holt, an Overland Park junior.
Free money is appealing to everyone. Few people would turn down a quarter, but not everyone cuts coupons even though manufacturers offer substantial savings.
"It is certainly not a majority of customers who use coupons," said Ken Keefer, director of advertising and public relations for Dillons, which has three stores in Lawrence.
Keefer said coupons were a good value and could save shoppers a lot of money. Dillons always offers double coupons for a maximum savings of $1 a coupon.
The store also has other special coupon promotions. Dillons occasionally triples coupons originally valued up to 33 cents. During the store's super double coupon promotion, it doublescoupons with original values up to $1, allowing shoppers to save as much as $2 on a single item.
"We feel doubling coupons is a cost of doing business that we can justify," he said. "If you talk to a coupon shopper, they can certainly make a convincing case for the value of coupons."
Mike Gee, a senior from Thousand Oaks, Calif., is a coupon user. He said he typically saved about $25 each month from coupons inserted in The Kansas City Star.
"Every time I look through the Sunday paper, I find a coupon that I can use," Gee said. "I use coupons almost every time I shop for food."
Jim Lewis, owner of Checkers,
2300 Louisiana St., said that
although his store didn't double
coupons, many shoppers still used them at the store.
"Coupons are definitely worth the customers' time if they want to go through them and save the money," Lewis said.
Even though Checkers distributes its own coupons frequently, Lewis said business did not increase because of coupons. He also warned against falling into the coupon trap of some grocery stores.
"Other stores increase prices so they can double coupons, and the customer ends up paying for that," he said. "They think they're getting something for nothing, but they're not."
Bridgette Keller, assistant food store manager of Hy-Vee, 3504 Clinton Parkway, said that the store did not double coupons and didn't take in a lot of manufacturer's coupons. However, Hy-Vee produces its own coupons which are available at the store.
SuperTarget, 3201 Iowa St., distributes its own coupons but does not double them. Greg Williams, grocery team leader at SuperTarget, said his store already provided the lowest price possible, and doubling coupons might actually raise prices. SuperTarget advertises in several newspapers to promote its sales.
Alvin's IGA, 901 Iowa St., doubles coupons originally valued up to 50 cents. Jim Roberts, manager, said doubling coupons attracted shoppers.
"Customers know they will get twice as much for a coupon," he said.
Roberts said that coupons encouraged brand loyalty, but shoppers should use them to save money.
Food 4 Less, 2525 Iowa St., also puts out store coupons but does not double them. Store managers declined to comment.

Skinheads,ska and society
Continued from page 1B
They've talked to Hadi numerous times, Paszkiewicz says. They try to explain to her that there are no neo-Nazis in Lawrence because the skinheads keep them out.
Troye "Trojan" Blackmon, Atchison police officer, is a skinhead who visits the Lawrence skinheads a few times a year. Blackmon says he found out about the situation between Lawrence police and Lawrence skinheads a year ago.
"The problem is mainly just the basic ignorance of what skinheads are about," Blackmon said. "The Lawrence Police Department classify skinheads as another street gang as I understand it."
Blackmon was a skinhead before he got into law enforcement. But he says Lawrence skinheads had no problem with him becoming a police officer because the skinhead work ethic is all about bettering oneself.
Skinhead Howard Hanna says that after the Christopher Bread murder, it seemed the Lawrence police were prejudiced against the skinheads. But he says when there was a confrontation between the Lawrence skinheads and some boneheads from Fort Riley and Leavenworth this past winter at the Replay Lounge, the police were willing to listen to the Lawrence skinheads. The police understood that the skinheads were the good guys in that situation.
A Lawrence police officer once asked Speight why Lawrence skinheads are so intolerant of neo-Nazis, she recalls.
"Because when they paint a swastika on the Jewish center, you'll be knocking on my door," Speight told him.

off the synchronized movements of three saxophones that make up the Scofflaw's horn section. The crowd bobs up and down, some doing a manic version of the skank, a traditional ska dance. Skanking involves taking two steps forward and two back, in a sort of running-in-place motion, but most of the teenagers in this crowd just bob up and down in an MTV-style mosh.
The skinheads at the show have moved to the back and side of the Daily Grind, 3826 Main St., Kansas City, Mo., trying to escape the crowd's frenzy. A man with long hair gets on stage and then jumps on the crowd.
Skinheads are not against stage diving if it is at a hardcore show, says skinhead Jay "Syko" Chugdon, who has a blue Mohawk.
Kitty Steffens cradles her 40-ounce beverage while sitting atop Mike Johnson's Vespa motorscooter. Steffens, 21, has been a skinhead for a little over a year and still considers herself a "freshcut."
Paszkiewicz says, "But Jesus Christ, you don't stage dive toska. It's the stupidity of people acting like something when they're really not.
We are bitter. We kept the ska scene going, not just the music.
but the way we dress, the fashion."
SUPERB SIXTEEN
Skinheads say that when fraternity members drink at skai shows, they flail around and hurt people, especially women. The tension between the Greeks and skinhead roustabulates is rampant at shows, says Abby Page, Chugdon's girlfriend, who wants to be a skinhead.
The last time she went to see the St. Louis ska band MU330 at the Bottleneck, some fraternities members in the crowd were pushing without any regard for females. One member kept running into her and her friends, and they had to push him away.
"We told him, 'Hey, let everybody dance and leave us alone,'" Page says.
After that, one of the fraternity members elbowed her in the eye and shoved her to the ground, Page says. Her friends had to push through everybody's legs and help her up.
"When alcohol and a clashing style of people mix in an enclosed environment it gets really bad," she says.
The Lawrence skinheads claim their pride in their unique appearance rubs some people, including fraternity members, the wrong way. Brady Grace, Wichita sophomore, and member of Beta Theta Pi, says he remembers an incident when he and his friend were hanging out at a bar.
"I don't like skinheads because they act like the coolest baddest rock stars and wear shitty clothes, earrings and tattoos," Grace says.
"Skinheads were starting trash like they tend to do," Grace says. "They were being loud and drunk and not following normal social standards."
He and his friend took it upon themselves to make them be more socially aware, Grace says. They got in a shouting match with the skinheads and the skinheads ended up leaving.

Skinheads: A sexist society?
Part of skinhead fashion is the often-seen flight jacket. People who wear flight jackets decorate them with pins and patches which designate their musical and political preferences. Anthony Verheaghe and Frank McHale, both from Kansas City, wore their "flights" to a ska show at the Daily Grind in Kansas City, Mo.

It's harder to become a female skinhead, Paukstelis says. Female skinheads are a lot fiercer to "freshcuts," the skinheads' word for those who have just shaved their heads.
That's because being a female skinhead is more noticeable, Speight says, and because being female and having a shaved head is less socially acceptable. For a while the only job she could find was building magnetic components for air-to-ground Hellfire Missiles at Torotel Products Inc. in Grandview, Mo., for minimum wage. When she shaved her head, her mother thought she was a lesbian.
But she likes the violent element of being a skinhead. It's a necessary defense, Speight says. Being in a small town makes her more noticeable to people.
"A lot of people see me walking down the street and think, 'What a stupid bitch,'" she says. "After a while they get sick of thinking it and do something about it."
An indigent in town stole her tip money when she was working as a waitress, she says. She reported it to her manager who threw him out. Then she saw the man on the street, and he became angry.
"I discovered putting my cigarette out on his face could be a real good deterrent," she says.
Skinheads react to the small-town claustrophobia of Lawrence by striking out with violence and not apologizing. Speight is adamant about her choice of lifestyle.
"I'm a skinhead because I feel it," she says. "I can't explain why I feel it."
Skinhead society is exist partly because there so few female skinheads. There are only four in Lawrence, so Springer remains a skinhead because she wants to change the male-centered attitude.
Skinhead Brandy Springer confesses, "Sometimes I wonder why I stay a skinhead. But I know the problems in skinhead society are not worse than in the rest of society."
Paszkiewicz is still mulling over why the skinheads drink on ooftops.
Drinking, families and rooftops
It's a temporary escape, he thinks.
"The problem is mainly just the basic ignorance of what skinheads are about."
are about.

"The one thing that bugs me the most about all the media about skinheads is they say we are all just dysfunctional losers, looking for family," he says. "That's not true. We all chose this lifestyle."
Lindsey Barrett, Paszkiewicz's girlfriend, says, "Tom has one of the best familial relationships I've ever seen. But I think a lot of us have had bad family experiences."
"No more than anyone else," Paszkiewicz says.
"That's true," Barrett says. "Everyone here could go home and there wouldn't be any hostility."
The others warm to their own drinking-on-the-roof theories.
Steffens says jokingly, "Yeah, we're really hippies at heart and just want to be outdoors."
"Maybe because the cops can't see you up here," Mike Johnson
offers.
Paszkiewicz says, "Skinheads and punk rockers try to isolate ourselves because we have been rejected by society. Whenever there is trouble we get blamed for it. Ninety percent of the time, when there are fights between frat boys and skinheads, the skinheads are the ones that end up going to jail."
"Tom and I talked to a Johnson County Community College class called Social Problems to tell people who we really are and what were about," Speight says. They told the class that she and Paszkiewicz are Anti-Racist Action skinheads.
The ARA was started by Lawrence skinheads as a way to keep neo-Nazis out of town, Paszkiewicz says.
So they teach the neo-Nazis Skinhead 101, he says. This includes racial tolerance and the history of the Jamaican and English fusion of cultures that created skinheads.
If education fails, the ARA skinheads use direct action.
"Throughout the United States, Nazis know Kansas City and Lawrence are not the places for them," Paszkiewicz says.
Every so often one shows up, and they leave town barefoot and bleeding, he adds.
"Thus we can bring in why the police don't like us so much," Paszkiewicz says. "We live a fish bowl existence."

Dole leaves Senate behind, not politics

The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — What the new Bob Dole could use about now is somebody to play the role of the old Bob Dole — tough, sharp-tongued, ready to seize and exploit every Democratic vulnerability.
That kind of hardline campaigning doesn't play well for the candidate at the top of the ticket. Presidents and would-be presidents prefer the high road while spokesman, surrogates and sometimes running mates do the attack work.
Dole knows that, having done it,
sometimes too stridently. He once
joked ruefully that when he went
for the jugular vein, he got his own.
Still, he was the man who could put
a Republican on things, often in
a quip that made it understandable and, for the opposition,
unavoidable.
But as the seasoned, mellowed Dole resigned his Senate seat yesterday to run full time for the White House, nobody is playing a comparable part for him. He won't have a running mate until the convention, still three months away. House Speaker Newt Gingrich is an ally, but his negative ratings rule out a high-profile campaign spot.
Bob Dole
When Dole was campaigning in Chicago two weeks ago, a man suggested that his ticket might suffer because of the unpopularity of the speaker and the Republican Congress.
"Some might say that," he replied.
"I have to spell out my own agenda
for America, Bob Dole's agenda."
Beginning today, he will do so as a former senator. Republican National Chairman Haley Barbour said his resignation made him a candidate for president to the exclusion of all else and added that

He has remained a relatively cautious one, despite openings the Dole of another era would have seized and exploited. He has dealt gingerly with Whitewater and other cases touching on President Clinton and his associates, although he hardened his line after the disclosure that the White House got FBI background files on 341 people, most of them Republicans, in 1993, in connection with access passes. Clinton called it an honest bureaucratic snafu, and the process was stopped part way through the alphabet.
dency to shoot first and ask questions later and did so when he spoke beside House Speaker Newt Gingrich at a rally in Marietta, Ga., on Saturday.
he already is more focused as a campaigner.
But Dole said the episode smells, that there should and would be hearings in Congress on what he said reads like a Clinton enemies list. He said he remembered Watergate and the things that happened because of similar situations.
But in this campaign, Dole has been relatively restrained, although the Democrats argue that he's lurching from one negative attack to another. Dole said that's because he's telling the truth about Clinton's record, which he said is to talk like a conservative and govern like a liberal.
Even a White House apology came with a counter-attack. Chief of Staff Leon Panetta, offered it, after he said that Dole had a ten-

against Clinton, but they haven't undone the president's early lead so far. And Dole's decision to resign his Senate seat boosted his standing.
When Dole did speak of it later, he said, "I want to return integrity to our government, a mission that's more important this week than even a week ago." Mild words compared with those of his early career.
Republican strategy is to make character and credibility issues
On Monday, Barbour said, "I don't know any reason it would have any affect on the polls."
Perhaps not, but the polls certainly had an effect on it. Dole's campaign design had been to run as the Senate leader who got things done. But he couldn't get measures past balky Democrats, and ardent House conservatives complicated the task, too.
Dole at first had resisted suggestions that he step aside as the majority leader, at least temporarily. But lagging in the polls and snarled in Senate disputes, he chose to resign outright.
Barbour said that has stirred and solidified Republicans for the campaign, but that undecided voters remain to be convinced on the issues. Dole will be trying, full time, from now on.
Frahm takes Senate oath of office, replaces Dole
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Sheila Frahm was sworn into the Senate yesterday afternoon to replace Bob Dole, becoming the 24th woman ever to take the Senate oath of office.
"All that I am and all that I will become, I owe to Kansas," Frahm said in prepared remarks.
Sen. Nancy Kassebaum held Frahm's family Bible while Vice President Al Gore administered the oath. At Frahm's side were Dole and the rest of the Kansas congressional delegation, except Rep. Sam Brownback, who is opposing her in the GOP primary to serve the remaining two years of Dole's term.
There are now nine women in the Senate, five Democrats and four Republicans. Kansas now is one of two states with two female senators. California, with Democratic Sens. Dianne Feinstein and
Barbara Boxer, is the other.
Before she was sworn in, Frahm attended her first meeting with Republican senators. She was escorted into the Senate chamber by Dole and Kassebaum, with Gov. Bill Graves nearby.
In an interview before she took the oath of office, Frahm said she is ready for hew new duties.
"Everything is in place," Frahm said.
But she acknowledged a sense of wonder that she could so quickly move from Kansas lieutenant governor to the U.S. Senate.
"It's still a shock. I still say it's an incredible opportunity. It's hard to find the words to describe it," Frahm said.
In a separate interview today, Dole said Frahm has a difficult task ahead in learning the ropes of the Senate while still running in the Aug. 6 Republican primary in Kansas.
"She's got to organize an office, raise money, run back and forth. She's going to get a lot of frequent flier miles here in the next 60 days," Dole said. "I think she just has to make a judgment and be here for the important votes."
Frahm said she has reached her twin goals of kicking off an election campaign and preparing to become a new senator.
"Some said, 'That can't happen.' Well, it has happened," Frahm said in an interview Monday. "It is an incredible pace we've kept."
Since Graves appointed her May 24, the former lieutenant governor has spent all of her time in Kansas putting together a campaign. She faces Rep. Sam Brownback in the Aug. 6 GOP primary.
But Frahm said she would give her Senate duties full attention.
her school office run attention.
"I don't think that's an impossible task. Can we manage a campaign at the same time? Absolutely," she said.
Frahm spent her day Monday in a series of briefings with Dole's staff many of whom will stay on for the time being and getting up to speed on the operation of the Senate.
"It will be critical that they keep me informed," Frahm said of the staff. "We don't have the luxury of a transition."
Frahm's first official vote is likely to be in the race to succeed Dole as majority leader, which is between Mississippi Sens. Trent Lott and Thad Cochran. Frahm said she has talked by phone with both men, but would not disclose whether she has made a decision.
Wearing a royal blue dress and a sunflower corsage, Frahm, 51, was trailed by cameras from Kansas television stations Monday as she took care of tasks such as learning the parliamentary procedure of the Senate, getting her parking pass and signing up for life insurance.
She found an apartment in suburban Virginia and drove into the Capitol complex Monday morning, getting her first taste of Washington traffic in a backup leading to Memorial Bridge.
"That's different traffic than we used to in Topeka, Kansas," she observed with a laugh.
Later Monday night, she and Graves joined Dole, Sen. Nancy Kassebaum and other members of the Kansas congressional delegation at a formal fund-raiser for House and Senate GOP campaigns.
Meanwhile, Sen. Al D'Amato, chairman of the National Republican Senatorial Committee, has decided the political arm of the Senate GOP will remain neutral in the Frahm-Brownback race.
"This decision does not reflect support of one candidate over another. This is just the best policy for this race," said NRSC spokesman Dan McLagan.

Kevorkian attends death
Associated Press Writer
DETROIT — Less than a month after his latest court victory, physician Jack Kevorkian attended the death of a New Jersey woman, a lawyer for the assisted suicide advocate said yesterday.
Ruth Neuman, 69, who reportedly died from carbon monoxide poisoning, was the 29th person to die in Kevorkian's presence since 1990.
Neuman of Columbus, N.J., was brought to the North Oakland Medical Center in Pontiac, Mich., at about 12:25 a.m. Doctors pronounced her dead around 12:50 a.m. after trying unsuccessfully to revive her, hospital spokeswoman Choli Natavio said.
Natavio said Neuman's body was brought to the hospital by her son, who was joined several minutes later by Kevorkian's attorney Geoffrey Fieger.
Fleger, reached later at home, said Newman had been incapacitated many years after a series of strokes,
the last of which left her partially paralyzed on her left side. She also had uterine cancer and diabetes, he said.
She contacted Kevorkian several months ago and had undergone a lengthy period of counseling with him, Fieger said. The woman checked herself out of a New Jersey nursing home and traveled to Michigan, accompanied by her son and daughter, to meet with Kevorkian, Fieger said.
Fieger would not say how or where she died. But he did say other doctors, whom he refused to identify, were present in addition to Kevorkian. In at least one other instance, other doctors have been present at a death attended by Kevorkian, Fieger said.
WWJ-AM reported that Fieger said Neuman died of carbon monoxide poisoning. Kevorkian, reached at his home, referred questions to his lawyer.
An autopsy on Neuman could be performed later today, said a
spokeswoman at the Oakland County medical examiner's office who refused to give her name.
"If she's a suspicious death she's automatically a medical examiner's case. If they're saying Dr. Jack's involved, that would be a suspicious death," the spokeswoman said.
Kevorkian, a 68-year-old retired pathologist, has maintained that as a doctor he has a moral duty to help patients end their suffering, even if the only way is to end their lives.
Kevorkian has said that nothing short of "being burned at the stake" would halt his campaign to provide fatal relief to patients suffering from unending pain.
The death comes less than a month after Kevorkian was acquitted in two assisted suicides. Over the last two years, he has been acquitted of assisted suicide charges in three trials covering five deaths.
Oakland County Prosecutor Richard Thompson has said that even after the high-profile court failures, he wouldn't back down from possibly trying Kevorkian again.
After his latest court victory May 14, Kevorkian said: "I now consider this a legitimate medical service. I've never been so convinced of being right in my life."
The last death involving Kevorkian was that of Austin Bastard, 53, a multiple sclerosis patient from South Windsor, Ontario. The May 6 death came during Kevorkian's last trial.
In his first two trials, Kevorkian was charged under a temporary law the Legislature targeted at him. But in the last case, the charges were based on a 1994 Michigan Supreme Court ruling that said assisted suicide was a felony under the common law — the traditions and legal precedents dating to old England.
Fleger contended that judges on the state's highest courts and prosecutors had conspired to get Kevorkian by creating a new common law crime of assisted suicide.
CHICAGO — More than 50 killings or suicides occur each year near or at U.S. schools, according to the first systematic study of violent school-related deaths.
Violent deaths frequent at U.S. schools
Death rate a result of guns in urban schools conflict among students says systematic study
Most deaths are in urban areas, involve handguns and teen-agers, and are the result of interpersonal conflicts, according to the study by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, which examined deaths from July 1, 1992, through June 30, 1994. Almost a third of the deaths were gang-related.
The Associated Press
"We think of schools as safe
havens," said James Mercy, director of the CDC's Division of Violence Prevention. "These deaths fly in the face of that sentiment."
And while the deaths account for less than 1 percent of killings and suicides among school-age children, they represent the tip of the iceberg of all the violent acts that go on around schools, Mercy said.
The CDC study, published today in The Journal of the American Medical Association, identified 105 school-related violent deaths, consisting of 85 killings and 20 suicides. Victims included 76 students, 63 of them in grades nine through 12.
School-related deaths were those that occurred on the campus of an elementary or secondary school or while the victim was on the way to or from school or a school event.
Researchers used online news databases, and followed up by studying police reports, medical examiners' records, and by interviewing police and school officials.
Of all the deaths, 81 were caused by firearms — at least 62 of them handguns — 18 by knives or blades, five by ropes and one without a weapon. Thirty-three deaths were gang-related.
The 105 fatalities occurred at 101 different schools in 25 states. Sixtythree deaths occurred in urban areas, 32 in suburban areas and 10 in rural areas.
The researchers, led by Dr. S. Patrick Kachur, said preventing school deaths will require more than a classroom approach and will need to involve whole communities.
And since "interpersonal conflicts" was the biggest motive — accounting for 35 deaths — improving young people's ability to resolve conflicts may go a long way toward reducing the risk of violence, researchers said.
Dr. Michael Doyle of the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence, who was not involved in the study, agreed that community-based approaches are key and children need to be taught how to resolve conflicts nonviolently. He also supports a blanket ban on gunguns.
Federal investigators looking for evidence of a conspiracy in a wave of fires at Southern Black churches say satanic markings were seen on a North Carolina sanctuary before it was burned and the 13-year-old suspect may have used the blaze as an anti-religious statement.
Feds continue to look for reasons why Black churches are burned
But a spokesman for the Gun Owners of America, based in Springfield, Va., said a gun ban would not accomplish anything. The highest rate of gun deaths in the study was in urban areas, which tend to have the strongest anti-gun laws, said spokesman John Vellecko.
"Prior to 1968, there were no restrictions to purchasing firearms by minors," Vellecko said. "Prior to 1968, I don't think anyone would suggest that schools were more violent. So why are teen-agers more violent today? You just cannot say it's because of access to guns."
Mark Logan, an agent with the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms, said investigators were pursuing both angles, but noted there was no evidence the girl, who is Caucasian, is linked to any other church fires.
Also, the victims and perpetrators in the study tended to be 16 or 17 years old, suggesting the problem is violent teens, not guns, he said.
Sanctuary blaze may be a protest
The Associated Press
Meanwhile in Texas, three men were questioned Monday about suspicious fires at two black churches. One of those fires was ruled arson today.
In the North Carolina case, NBC Nightly News, quoting federal officials it did not identify, said the girl was suspected of being part of a devil-worshiping cult.
However, ATF spokesman Earl Woodham cautioned today against drawing any conclusions about Logan's comments that he meant investigators had actually found evidence of satanic activities.
Logan said investigators were pursuing possible links between the fire and satanic markings seen at the church and nearby areas. He said the suspect also might have been making an anti-religious statement with the fire.
"We are going to look into it to see if there is any substance to it, but we will not confirm that there was any posting of satanic or other known graffiti on the church," Woodham said.
Logan was en route to Washington and could not be reached for additional comment.
While police refused to comment
on the report, they acknowledged that investigators who specialize in racial and cult activity were questioning the girl.
"If there any possibility that it's cult-related, they've got a very cooperative suspect who I am sure will tell them about it," said Capt. D.L Skipper of Charlotte-Mecklenburg police, which arrested the girl Sunday.
"This is a very troubled 13-year-old," said Deputy Chief Larry Snider.
The fire destroyed a 99-year-old wooden sanctuary at Matthews Murkland Presbyterian Church in Charlotte, N.C., on Thursday night. The sanctuary was used to store old pews; the congregation worshipped at a building nearby.
The ATF has been investigating 30 church fires since January 1995 and has declared five of those cases closed with arrests. Two weekend fires in Texas would bring the total to 32.
In Greenville, Texas, about 40 miles northeast of Dallas, the New Light House of Prayer was heavily damaged late Sunday night. Another fire moderately damaged the Church of the Living God a mile away.
The New Light House of Prayer was ruled arson, ATF agent Steven Steele said today. Samples were sent to a laboratory for tests but it will take a couple of weeks to determine what accelerant was used, he said.
Two Caucasians and a Hispanic American, charged with alcohol-related crimes, were questioned about both fires, although the second blaze was reported three hours after their arrest. Fire Chief Robert Wood called the fires acts of local vandalism.
Biotech industry considers ethics of testing embryos for genetic disorders
The Associated Press
PHILADELPHIA — Fertility specialists question whether they should test embryos for a newly discovered breast cancer gene, potentially allowing parents to pick a child without that type of cancer risk.
Parents are asking whether they should test their children for genes that won't cause disease until adulthood — and can't be prevented. Patients are wondering how to keep frightening test results from causing their health and life insurance to be canceled.
The biotechnology industry is grappling with such questions, hiring ethicists and polling the public to determine where and how companies should draw the line on potentially profitable but ethically troubling discoveries.
"The public is wary," said Carl Feldbaum, president of the Biotechnology Industry Organization, which brought 3,000 industry executives and scientists to its annual meeting on Monday to debate ethical issues. "We are asking what things people think are unacceptable, and we are listening."
Biotechnology is a young but fastgrowing industry, with 40 medical technologies and 21 agricultural products on the market.
Yet companies already have faced ethical controversy. Religious leaders have denounced scientists for
patenting genes they discover, saying no one can own genes. Critics protested a biologically-engineered hormone to boost cows' milk production, saying it might promote infections.
And Congress only now is grappling with how to keep genetic test results private so patients don't face discrimination because they inherited certain disease risks.
But as scientific discoveries expand doctors' knowledge and power over biology, companies are taking a hard look at how far they can go versus how far they should go.
Gene testing of embryos is just an example of the dilemma. University
of Pennsylvania bioethicist Arthur Caplan says fertility clinics keep asking his opinion on testing embryos for the BRCA-1 gene that puts about 5 percent of women at risk for inherited breast cancer — even though the test is still experimental in adults.
"That question's going to explode as more genes for traits and disorders are identified," said Caplan, who on Monday urged companies to be cautious in developing such tests. Caplan said if sufficient traits can be tested for, some people may want to have test tube babies not because they are infertile, but because they are selecting for traits. The nation has never found an easy balance
between profit-making and ethicsmaking, said W. Steven Burke of the North Carolina Biotechnology Center.
"Whether that is doable with biologically based products I think remains to be seen," he said.
Companies are hiring outside ethicists and lobbying for genetic privacy laws. The Biotechnology Industry Organization has conducted meetings in eight states so far, asking members of the public what research should not be pursued.
The public did not want the technology used to create basketball stars or raise anyone's IQ, Feldbaum said of the poll results.
Even school students may join the debate. The Pennsylvania Biotechnology Association just mailed teachers nationwide a magazine, partly funded by the Education Department, that teaches genetics basics and asks, "Suppose your parents want to have you tested even though you might become dangerously depressed if you knew you had a fatal gene?"
The Hastings Center, an ethical think tank, just began raising $750,000 to help industry and doctors address the dilemmas. High on the list is delineating when biotechnology is a treatment or merely a way to make people better than normal, ethicist Mark Hanson said.

Kevorkian attends death
Associated Press Writer
DETROIT — Less than a month after his latest court victory, physician Jack Kevorkian attended the death of a New Jersey woman, a lawyer for the assisted suicide advocate said yesterday.
Ruth Neuman, 69, who reportedly died from carbon monoxide poisoning, was the 29th person to die in Kevorkian's since 1990.
Neuman of Columbus, N.J., was brought to the North Oakland Medical Center in Pontiac, Mich., at about 12:25 a.m. Doctors pronounced her dead around 12:50 a.m. after trying unsuccessfully to revive her, hospital spokeswoman Choli Nativao said.
Natavio said Neuman's body was brought to the hospital by her son, who was joined several minutes later by Kevorkian's attorney Geoffrey Fieger.
Fieger, reached later at home, said Newman had been incapacitated many years after a series of strokes.
the last of which left her partially paralyzed on her left side. She also had uterine cancer and diabetes, he said.
She contacted Kevorkian several months ago and had undergone a lengthy period of counseling with him, Fieger said. The woman checked herself out of a New Jersey nursing home and traveled to Michigan, accompanied by her son and daughter, to meet with Kevorkian, Fieger said.
Flienger would not say how or where she died. But he did say other doctors, whom he refused to identify, were present in addition to Kevorkian. In at least one other instance, other doctors have been present at a death attended by Kevorkian, Fliester said.
WWJ-AM reported that Fieger said Neuman died of carbon monoxide poisoning. Kevorkian, reached at his home, referred questions to his lawyer.
An autopsy on Neuman could be performed later today, said a
spokeswoman at the Oakland County medical examiner's office who refused to give her name.
"If she's a suspicious death she's automatically a medical examiner's case. If they're saying Dr. Jack's involved, that would be a suspicious death," the spokeswoman said.
Kevorkian, a 68-year-old retired pathologist, has maintained that as a doctor he has a moral duty to help patients end their suffering, even if the only way is to end their lives.
Kevorkian has said that nothing short of "being burned at the stake" would halt his campaign to provide fatal relief to patients suffering from unending pain.
The death comes less than a month after Kevorkian was acquitted in two assisted suicides. Over the last two years, he has been acquitted of assisted suicide charges in three trials covering five deaths.
Oakland County Prosecutor Richard Thompson has said that even after the high-profile court failures, he wouldn't back down from possibly trying Kevorkian again.
After his latest court victory May 14, Vekorkian said: "I now consider this a legitimate medical service. I've never been so convinced of being right in my life."
the last death involving Kevorkian was that of Austin Bastable, 53, a multiple sclerosis patient from South Windsor, Ontario. The May 6 death came during Kevorkian's last trial.
In his first two trials, Kevorkian was charged under a temporary law the Legislature targeted at him. But in the last case, the charges were based on a 1994 Michigan Supreme Court ruling that said assisted suicide was a felony under the common law — the traditions and legal precedents dating to old England.
Fieger contended that judges on the state's highest courts and prosecutors had conspired to get Kevorkian by creating a new common law crime of assisted suicide.
Violent deaths frequent at U.S. schools
The Associated Press
Death rate a result of guns in urban schools conflict among students says systematic study
CHICAGO — More than 50 killings or suicides occur each year near or at U.S. schools, according to the first systematic study of violent school-related deaths.
Most deaths are in urban areas, involve handguns and teen-agers, and are the result of interpersonal conflicts, according to the study by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, which examined deaths from July 1, 1992, through June 30, 1994. Almost a third of the deaths were gang-related.
havens," said James Mercy, director of the CDC's Division of Violence Prevention. "These deaths fly in the face of that sentiment."
"We think of schools as sate
The CDC study, published today in The Journal of the American Medical Association, identified 105 school-related violent deaths, consisting of 85 killings and 20 suicides. Victims included 76 students, 63 of them in grades nine through 12.
And while the deaths account for less than 1 percent of killings and suicides among school-age children, they represent the tip of the iceberg of all the violent acts that go on around schools, Mercy said.
School-related deaths were those that occurred on the campus of an elementary or secondary school or when the victim was on the way to or from school or a school event.
Researchers used online news databases, and followed up by studying police reports, medical examiners' records, and by interviewing police and school officials. Of all the deaths, 81 were caused by firearms — at least 62 of them handguns — 18 by knives or blades, five by ropes and one without a weapon. Thirty-three deaths were gang-related.
The 105 fatalities occurred at 101 different schools in 25 states. Sixtythree deaths occurred in urban areas, 32 in suburban areas and 10 in rural areas.
The researchers, led by Dr. S. Patrick Kachur, said preventing school deaths will require more than a classroom approach and will need to involve whole communities.
Dr. Michael Doyle of the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence, who was not involved in the study, agreed that community-based approaches are key and children need to be taught how to resolve conflicts nonviolently. He also supports a blanket ban on handguns.
But a spokesman for the Gun Owners of America, based in Springfield, Va., said a gun ban would not accomplish anything. The highest rate of gun deaths in the study was in urban areas, which tend to have the strongest anti-gun laws, said spokesman John Vellecko.
Mark Logan, an agent with the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms, said investigators were pursuing both angles, but noted there was no evidence the girl, who is Caucasian, is linked to any other church fires.
"Prior to 1968, there were no restrictions to purchasing firearms by minors," Vellecko said. "Prior to 1968, I don't think anyone would suggest that schools were more violent. So why are teen-agers more violent today? You just cannot say it's because of access to guns."
Feds continue to look for reasons why Black churches are burned
Also, the victims and perpetrators in the study tended to be 16 or 17 years old, suggesting the problem is violent teens, not guns, he said.
Federal investigators looking for evidence of a conspiracy in a wave of fires at Southern Black churches say satanic markings were seen on a North Carolina sanctuary before it was burned and the 13-year-old suspect may have used the blaze as an anti-religious statement.
Sanctuary blaze may be a protest
The Associated Press
Meanwhile in Texas, three men were questioned Monday about suspicious fires at two black churches. One of those fires was ruled arson today.
In the North Carolina case, NBC Nightly News, quoting federal officials it did not identify, said the girl was suspected of being part of a devil-worshiping cult.
Logan said investigators were pursuing possible links between the fire and satanic markings seen at the church and nearby areas. He said the suspect also might have been making an anti-religious statement with the fire.
However, ATF spokesman Earl Woodham cautioned today against drawing any conclusions about Logan's comments that he meant investigators had actually found evidence of satanic activities.
"We are going to look into it to see if there is any substance to it, but we will not confirm that there was any posting of satanic or other known graffiti on the church," Woodham said.
Logan was en route to Washington and could not be reached for additional comment.
While police refused to comment
on the report, they acknowledged that investigators who specialize in racial and cult activity were questioning the girl.
"If there's any possibility that it's cult-related, they've got a very cooperative suspect who I am sure will tell them about it," said Capt. D.L Skipper of Charlotte-Mecklenburg police, which arrested the girl Sunday.
"This is a very troubled 13-year-old," said Deputy Chief Larry Snider.
The fire destroyed a 93-year-old wooden sanctuary at Matthews Murkland Presbyterian Church in Charlotte, N.C., on Thursday night. The sanctuary was used to store old pews; the congregation worshipped at a building nearby.
The ATF has been investigating 30 church fires since January 1995 and has declared five of those cases closed with arrests. Two weekend fires in Texas would bring the total to 32.
In Greenville, Texas, about 40 miles northeast of Dallas, the New Light House of Prayer was heavily damaged late Sunday night. Another fire moderately damaged the Church of the Living God a mile away.
The New Light House of Prayer was ruled arson, ATF agent Steven Steele said today. Samples were sent to a laboratory for tests but it will take a couple of weeks to determine what accelerant was used, he said.
Two Caucasians and a Hispanic American, charged with alcohol-related crimes, were questioned about both fires, although the second blaze was reported three hours after their arrest. Fire Chief Robert Wood called the fires acts of local vandalism.
Biotech industry considers ethics of testing embryos for genetic disorders
The Associated Press
PHILADELPHIA — Fertility specialists question whether they should test embryos for a newly discovered breast cancer gene, potentially allowing parents to pick a child without that type of cancer risk.
Parents are asking whether they should test their children for genes that won't cause disease until adulthood — and can't be prevented. Patients are wondering how to keep frightening test results from causing their health and life insurance to be canceled.
The biotechnology industry is grappling with such questions, hiring ethicists and polling the public to determine where and how companies should draw the line on potentially profitable but ethically troubling discoveries.
"The public is wary," said Carl Feldbaum, president of the Biotechnology Industry Organization, which brought 3,000 industry executives and scientists to its annual meeting on Monday to debate ethical issues. "We are asking what things people think are unacceptable, and we are listening."
Biotechnology is a young but fastgrowing industry, with 40 medical technologies and 21 agricultural products on the market.
Yet companies already have faced ethical controversy. Religious leaders have denounced scientists for
patenting genes they discover, saying no one can own genes. Critics protested a biologically-engineered hormone to boost cows' milk production, saying it might promote infections.
And Congress only now is grappling with how to keep genetic test results private so patients don't face discrimination because they inherited certain disease risks.
But as scientific discoveries expand doctors' knowledge and power over biology, companies are taking a hard look at how far they can go versus how far they should go.
Gene testing of embryos is just an example of the dilemma. University
of Pennsylvania bioethicist Artnur Caplan says fertility clinics keep asking his opinion on testing embryos for the BRCA-1 gene that puts about 5 percent of women at risk for inherited breast cancer — even though the test is still experimental in adults.
"That question's going to explode as more genes for traits and disorders are identified," said Caplan, who on Monday urged companies to be cautious in developing such tests. Caplan said if sufficient traits can be tested for, some people may want to have test tube babies not because they are infertile, but because they are selecting for traits.

Airlines agree to partnership
American Airlines, British Airways hook up for tickets, connections
The Associated Press
LONDON — American Airlines and British Airways today announced plans for an alliance that would give them a dominant market share on many lucrative overseas routes.
But the deal immediately raised complaints that it would lead to higher prices and fewer choices for travelers. Rival Virgin Atlantic Airways said the two giant airlines could abuse their huge market share.
"Together, they will dominate the market with over 60 percent of the U.K.-U.S. traffic and up to 100 percent in the worst cases," Virgin chairman Richard Branson said.
American Airlines and British Airways will remain independent, but will coordinate ticket sales and allow connections to one another's flights.
The airlines said they would "offer the widest choice of routings and departure times" with connections on their services linking Europe, Africa and the Middle East with points in North America, the Caribbean and South America.
British Airways chief executive Bob Ayling touted the deal as good news for consumers, employees and shareholders.
Not so, said Virgin's Branson
"Given the history of these two airlines and their anti-competitive behavior, it would be hard to believe any rational government, in the interest of consumers, would allow this to go forward."
Branson planned to meet today with British Transport Secretary Sir George Young to voice his opposition.
Virgin said it would object before British and U.S. aviation regulators as well as the U.S. Justice Department — which would have to grant antitrust immunity.
American Airlines and British Airways had been in talks for some time while many other carriers sought similar partnerships by selling seats on one another's flights in code-sharing deals and pooling frequent-flyer programs.
American and British Airways said they had no plans to exchange ownership stakes with one another, and they hoped to keep USAir, the U.S. partner of British
Airways, involved in a way that will strengthen USair's position.
British Airways has a 24.6 percent voting stake in USAir and the joint American Airlines and British Airways statement did not elaborate on the USAir role.
Virgin said American Airlines and British Airways would control 61.29 percent of the traffic between Britain and the United States, with huge shares in key markets. According to Virgin, their market shares would include:
—71 percent of the traffic between London and New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport.
—60 percent of traffic between London and Los Angeles.
—76.5 percent of traffic between London and Miami.
"They're the only game in town in Dallas," said an executive of another international carrier.
The executive, speaking only on condition of anonymity, said the American Airlines and British Airways deal would lead to a regulatory battle because of the monopoly it would give the airlines in major markets.
Virgin said this "trans-Atlantic cartel" would be able to push fares higher because travelers would often have few if any choices about how to fly.
Virgin spokesman Will Whitehorn predicted fares would rise by about 25 percent during the next three years, which is what he said happened after Sir Freddie Laker's budget airline, Skytrain, went bust after British Airways and others started a fare war in the early 1980s.
Laker eventually won millions in court payments from the other airlines.
Virgin has tangled for years with British Airways about charges that the larger carrier engaged in a dirty tricks campaign to harm Virgin's business.
British Airways settled a libel suit and issued a humiliating public apology to Virgin. Shortly thereafter, the British Airways chairman, Lord King, retired early.
American also has had past problems with allegations of anti-competitive behavior.
European Union announces plans to control smuggling of women
VIENNA, Austria — Organized crime traffickers are adding women to the list of goods they can smuggle across borders, causing a rise in the global slave trade.
The Associated Press
As a result, the European Union announced measures today at the conclusion of a two-day conference to combat the illegal trafficking of women, including a witness-protection program for those who testify against their exploiters.
Anita Gradin, the EU commissioner who organized the Vienna gathering, said she will present a more detailed plan of action to the EU's council of ministers and to the European parliament.
Ireland will keep the issue on the political agenda after it assumes the EU's rotating presidency on July 1, said John Byrne, an Irish Justice Department official specializing in immigration issues.
Historically, women slaves have come from Asia, Africa and Latin America. But as economic and social support systems crumbled
"The slave trade in women is growing," said Gradin. "Women are bought and sold like cattle. No part of the world seems exempt."
with the end of Communist regimes, women from central and eastern Europe have headed west, experts at the conference said Monday.
Estimates of the number of women smuggled from developing countries range from 200,000 to 500,000. The women are lured on promises of well-paid jobs, but are then forced into the sex trade.
In Vienna, 80 percent of the dancers in sex clubs come from central and eastern Europe, according to an EU report. In Milan, Italy, 80 percent of prostitutes are foreigners.
Experts say their ranks have grown dramatically in the last five years.
Trafficking in women is less risky than smuggling drugs, trading arms or laundering money since risks are low and profits high, Gradin said.
"Today, it is a global business, creating huge profits for trafficking and crime syndicates," said James Purcell, who directs the International Organization for Migration. "A person can increase his or her annual earnings by up to 20 times simply by crossing a few borders."
Experts said law enforcers are more likely to prosecute these crimes than the trading of women.
Austrian Interior Minister Caspar Einem said law enforcement agencies should work together and go after the assets of criminal networks.
Einem proposed granting women immunity in exchange for their testimony to break up the smuggling rings.
Marco Gramegna, another International Organization for Migration official, said large criminal networks recruit women through advertisements for nannies, language school students, marriage agencies and dancers.
In central and eastern Europe, women often are recruited by friends working in the sex trade. Many come with the consent of their families, Gramema said.
Women from the former Soviet
bloc tend to be young, single and well-educated, he said. Those from developing countries are typically older, married with children and less educated.
Most African women come from Ghana, Nigeria and Morocco; Latin American women come from Brazil, Colombia and the Dominican Republic; and Asian women are from the Philippines and Thailand. In recent years, women from Albania, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, Romania, Russia and Ukraine are heading West.
When the women arrive in western Europe, the traffickers take their passports. Many are locked up, and physically, sexually and mentally abused, Gradin said. If they escape, the women may be ostracized at home.
Many developing countries don't want to stop the trade because the women send money home to support their families, Gramega said.
Northern Ireland talks off to slow start; debate about U.S. mediator continues
In host countries, the influx feeds xenophobia and fears of uncontrolled borders.
the Associated Press
BELFAST, Northern Ireland — Former U.S. Sen. George Mitchell has yet to take his seat as chairman of Northern Ireland's peace talks; but pro-British Protestants already are calling for his ouster.
Mitchell remained on the outside today as the second day of negotiations opened at the Stormont complex east of Belfast. Pro-British hard-liners threatened to withdraw because they believe Mitchell is biased against them.
Protestant unionists rejected a British and Irish proposal today that Mitchell take over as chairman with talks to follow on defining his role, said Robert McCartney, leader of the United Kingdom Unionist Party.
"Our opposition to Mitchell has absolutely nothing to do with his personal character or his human decency," McCartney said during a break in the talks.
Protestant objections center on what they see as interference by a U.S. administration that is too friendly with the Irish Republican Army's allies. They also have made
pointed references to Mitchell's Roman Catholic faith.
"If he's in, I'm out," the Rev. Ian Paisley, leader of pro-British hardliners, said Monday as the long-delayed talks began.
The aim of the talks is to strike a compromise on governing Northern Ireland — one that will end the violence that has killed 3,200 people in the province since 1969.
Protestants demand that the province remain united with Britain. Catholics want political ties with the Irish Republic. The negotiations involve both governments and Northern Ireland's political parties.
The difficult start to negotiations raised more doubts about hopes for a new IRA cease-fire. Leaders of Sinn Fein, the IRA's political ally, say there won't be a new truce without the assurance of meaningful talks.
Sinn Fein is considered to be one of the most important factions by all concerned, but it is barred from the talks because the IRA has refused to resume a cease-fire it violated with a truck bomb in London in February.
Irish Prime Minister John Bruton
lashed out at Sinn Fein leaders today for refusing to condemn the killing of a police officer in western Ireland. Police say they have ballistic evidence linking Friday's attack to the IRA, although the outlawed organization has denied it.
One Irish man is charged with being an IRA member and with possessing firearms in connection with the officer's death.
"It makes me feel there is an ambiguity in Sinn Fein's attitude still, and I believe the only way that that ambiguity can be removed is if there is a definitive cease-fire and violence is foreworn for good," Bruton told Ireland's RTE radio.
The renewed call for a truce has gone unanswered so far.
Sinn Fein says the British and Irish governments must prod Protestants toward compromise.
So far, the Protestant political bloc — David Trimble's Ulster Unionists, Paisley's Democratic Unionists and the smaller United Kingdom Unionists — are the ones doing the pushing.
Paisley said Monday it was up to Northern Ireland politicians, not the
British or Irish governments, to pick who supervises the discussions. "We own this process," he said. "It is our future and we are not letting the two governments get their dirty hands on it."
However, other pro-British Protestants suggested they could accept Mitchell, who is President Clinton's special envoy and was chosen by Britain and Ireland to chair the talks.
Ken Maginnis of the Ulster Unionist Party, the main Protestant party, said today that Mitchell should be "an impartial arbitrator and facilitator, not a dictator." He indicated that his party was not implacably opposed to Mitchell, but wanted clear ground rules for his role.
Britain says the former U.S. Senate Majority Leader will assume the leadership post only with sufficient consensus among participants.
Prime ministers John Major of Britain and John Bruton of Ireland said they consider Mitchell the best person to implement his commission's central conclusion — that parties should renounce violence at the start of talks.

Chancellor has search committee's recommendations
By Spencer Duncan Kansan staff writer
The recommendations are in, and now Chancellor Robert Hemenway must decide who will be the University of Kansas 'first ever provost.
The provost search committee handed in its final recommendations on the five provost finalists yesterday, and Hemenway's decision is expected by July 1.
Jeff Weinberg, associate vice chancellor, said, "This has been a good process, and the committee has worked hard to make it run smoothly. The end is almost here."
the job.
The position combines the duties of executive vice chancellor and vice chancellor for academic affairs.
The search, which began in March, culminated last week when each finalist made a two-day campus visit.
The candidates said that these visits made a difference as to who got
Marilyn Yarbrough, associate provost at the University of North Carolina and a provost finalist, said, "This is the chance for us to show people who we are. How we interact on these visits will tell people if and how we can do the job."
Each candidate participated in forums with students, faculty and Lawrence residents and was interviewed by both the committee and Hemenway.
John Nalbandian, committee member and associate professor of public administration, said, "The week helped answer some of our questions."
Through student and open forums, the candidates outlined what they could bring to the University.
Vibrancy is what Marlene Strathe, provost and vice-president for academic affairs at the University of North Dakota, outlined as an essential component of a university.
"An institution of vibrancy is an institution which is committed to educating leadership of tomorrow that will be less concerned with gross national product and more concerned with equity and justice," Strathe said.
Strathe said she was intrigued by Hemenway's restructuring and
would be comfortable living in the Midwest. She endorsed post-tenure review as a means of monitoring performance.
Nancy Marlin, vice president for academic affairs and provost at the University of Northern Iowa, said that change was inevitable for colleges and that the University must be
prepared to respond to that change.
Keeping in touch with students and faculty is an essential part of being an administrator, she said.
Marlin also said it was important that a university retain its academic autonomy. Marlin does not want the legislature to become too involved in the operation of any university.
Shulenburger, who has been at Kansas for 22 years, said he would like to continue being a part of the University in the years ahead.
Change is also important to David Shulenburger, vice chancellor for academic affairs.

Canoe race tests future engineers
By Andrea Albright Kansan staff writer
In a boat called Prairie Fire, a group of 13 KU students competed against 25 teams last weekend at the America's Cup of college civil engineering.
The National Concrete Canoe Competition in Madison, Wis., is an annual event that combines student ingenuity and hands-on experience to showcase the abilities of civil engineering students, who present, display and race the canoes.
The University finished 14th overall this year, helped by a seventhplace finish in the display category and ninth-place finish for the team's oral presentation.
The University of Alabama-Huntsville won the event for the third time in four years. Sixty percent of the event's scoring is based on academics and 40 percent on the actual races. By not placing higher in the races, the KU team was at a
disadvantage, said Greg Litterick,
Shawne graduate student.
"We didn't place in the top 10 of any of the races," he said. "Everybody's so close on the academics, you have to win a couple of races to place high."
Funding is provided by the Kansas University Endowment Association, the department of engineering, and Master Builders, Inc., the corporate sponsor.
David Darwin, professor of civil engineering and the team's faculty adviser, said the students spent more than 800 hours building the canoes to strict specifications.
Each team gave presentations of their designs, which included a paper, a poster display and one square foot of material from the canoe. The presentations highlighted the students' strategies and emphasized their innovations in design.

Storms keep meteorologists busy
Storm-chasing teams investigate active cells
By K.C. Hammons Special to the Kansan
Storms were imminent. The WDAF Channel 4 weather room in Kansas City, Mo., was crowded with meteorologists studying the radar picture.
When the Lifted Index dropped to minus 4, indicating tornadoes were likely, WDAF meteorologist Diane Kacmarik and a cameraman quickly loaded up the van and sped westward, hoping to catch a twister on videotape.
It began to hail just as the two-person storm-chasing team was west of Bonner Springs on Interstate 70.
The wind became stronger, the sky blackened, and the force of the wind shoved the van off the highway.
Meteorologists working for television stations in the Kansas area, which is known as Tornado Alley, do more than just read radar screens and report the weather. Television weather departments, armed only with a video camera and a cellular phone, have assumed the responsibility of capturing severe storms up close. As Kacmarik found out, it was an exciting
Kacmarik decided that safety was more important than chasing the storm. The team took shelter under an overpass and waited for the storm to pass.
endeavor, but it can be dangerous.
Kacmarik said that meteorologists carried beepers and could be dispatched at any time, depending on the severity of the storm.
"Usually when the Lifted Index, which is just an indicator of weather instability, gets to minus 4 or below, a team is dispatched from the station and heads toward the storm cell." Kacmarik said.
"We had several teams out tracking down reports from people who called in. We were able to investigate the leads a lot easier because of all of the people we had out," Lauria said. "There were several cells to investigate and with all the calls coming in reporting tornadoes, we were pretty busy."
Meteorologist Joe Lauria, who works with Kacmarik at WDAF, said the meteorologist in the field kept in touch with another meteorologist at the station who used Doppler radar to track the storm's cells and give locations to the chase team. The night Kacmarik's team was blown off the road was a good night because they were between shifts and had plenty of chase teams available, Lauria said.
The storm's cell, the densest, most active part of the storm, is easily identified by Donpler radar.
Lauria said that some stations in Oklahoma, where tornado activity is most prevalent, had vehicles equipped with Doppler, making it quicker and easier for the chase teams to track storms.
A chase team typically encounters
strong winds, rain and often hail. However, the team usually doesn't encounter a tornado. Lauria said.
KCTV Channel 5 meteorologist Gary Amble, a 1987 KU graduate, said that storm chasing was exciting and frustrating at the same time.
"Sometimes you can drive hundreds of miles chasing a storm cell and never get anything," he said.
"First, you have to put yourself in position to intercept the cell," Amble said. "Then, if possible, you chase it from the southwest, since most storms move from southwest to northeast. That's the safest place to be. The problem is that tornadoes spend an average of only three minutes on the ground, approximately one-fifteenth of its life, and often are moving too fast to safely catch one down."
He said the storm-chasing team must keep in constant communication with the meteorologist monitoring the radar so the team can be in position to track the storm.
Tornadoes moving at more than 40 mph aren't worth chasing, Amble said, because it is nearly impossible to capture such tornadoes on video tape.
"We're worried that people are going to start chasing these things," Amble said. "They don't realize how dangerous it can be."
Amble said television stations often got footage of tornadoes or other storms from amateur videos, but he did not recommend chasing tornadoes. He said that was a concern after the popular movie Twister.

Budig Hall ironworkers strike
Familiar quarrel halts construction
Cheaper isn't always better. That's the lesson union ironworkers at Budig Hall decided to teach the general contractor again.
About a dozen members of ironworkers Local Union 10 walked off the construction site at Budig Hall Friday to protest non-union laborers who had been hired by general contractor DiCarlo Construction.
By Jason Stran
Kansan staff writer
Kansas is a right-to-work state, meaning that both union and nonunion workers can work on the
The labor dispute was resolved Saturday, Hastings said. The source said DiCarlo agreed to remove J. D. Steel from the job and hire a subcontractor other than J. D. Steel and Builders Steel Company to complete the work.
same job provided there are separate entrance gates for both groups.
The non-union ironworkers, employed by J.D. Steel, showed up Thursday, said a union ironworker who asked to remain anonymous. The union workers, employed by Builders Steel Company, then contacted their business agent, Jim Hastings, who told them to go to work Friday, the source said.
Hastings said he set up a picket for the remainder of Friday and part of Saturday morning.
Members of Ironworkers Local Union 10 picketed until the J. D. Steel ironworkers were removed from the site.
The J.D. Steel workers arrived Friday, entering through the union gate, the source said. After Hastings talked to DiCarlo and couldn't resolve the situation quickly, he told the union ironworkers to go home.
J. D. Steel also was at the center of controversy in February 1995 when a similar dispute occurred.
Despite the labor problems, Mark Green, senior project manager for DiCarlo, said neither dispute would influence future contracting.
Hastings said the work given to J.D. Steel was not included in the original bidding and that DiCarlo was attempting to cut corners by hiring a less expensive subcontractor.
"I asked him if he had ever seen the sign, 'Cheaper is not always better,' Hastings said. "I told him he was ignoring that sign. The company told me it was a matter of economics."
"They (J. D. Steel) will be given equal opportunity, even though there is a labor dispute." Green said.
Although there are other non-union workers on the job site, Hastings said the ironworkers had a problem mainly with the hiring of J. D. Steel employees.
Hastings said the union members didn't think the J.D. Steel employees were doing a quality job, nor were they conducting themselves professionally.
"KU wants a quality building built. That's what we take pride in doing," Hastings said. "DiCarlo is doing everyone a disservice by hiring them."
Provost to be named by beginning of July
"The campus is changing, and there are things that need to be done," Shulenburger said. "The provost will have a great opportunity to increase and improve teaching and research."
Shulenburger said it was essential that research funding increase to at least $150 million annually. He also said it was important to correct or eliminate low-quality graduate programs and enhance academic computing services.
Continued from 1A
He said it was important that the academic experience of freshmen and sophomores improved.
Some University administrators and faculty have speculated that Shulenburger will become provost because he holds one of the combining positions. Members of the committee disagree.
Gloria Flores, committee member and associate director of minority
affairs, said Shulenburger's current position wasn't important.
Hemenway, the University of Kentucky chancellor at the time, hired Richard Edwards as dean of the college of liberal arts and sciences.
"The committee has worked to make this a very fair process," Flores said. "If this were not a fair and equitable process, then most of us would not be on this committee." This job is open to any of these candidates, and Chancellor Hemenway has made that clear both in public and in private."
Two other candidates also have ties to the University, which has led to presumptions they could have an advantage in the hiring process.
Committee chairman Wil Linkugel, professor of communication studies, said Edwards' ties had no impact on the committee's decision to make him a finalist. It does not give him an advantage "Obviously a comment from the committee) was made that he was from Kentucky," Linkugel said. "I am convinced that he would have been a finalist if he was from the University of Tennessee or Pennsylvania. He is on the list because he is qualified."
Yarbrough said her style of administration was hands-on and supported employee accountability.
During his visit, Edwards said he believed that restoring public confidence in the University must be a priority. That means emphasizing undergraduate education and advancing research.
Flores said that whoever Hemenway chooses would be a positive choice for the University.
"The more public support the University has, the more it can improve," Edwards said.
Edwards also endorses a system of post-tenure review, and, in response to a question about extending medical benefits to same-sex couples, said he preferred the medical-benefit packages be offered to employees without regard to definition of families.
"Returning home would be nice," Yarbough said. "This is an area I would like to be in."
"I am sure he [Hemenway] has been deliberating the decision in his own mind," Flores said. "He will take the committee's recommendations and use them to help assure his ideas. I am positive he will make the right decision."
"I want people to feel free to do the things they think need to be done," Yarbrough said. "It is when people don't get the job done that I will step in and see how things can be worked out."
There needs to be better communication between the faculty and students, Yarbrough said. She also supports post-tenure review.
Yarbrough also has ties to the University. She was a KU law professor from 1979 to 1987.
Boat builders must show knowledge of structure
Continued from 1A
Judges also examined the finished canoes and rated them for workmanship and creative features.
"Some of the boats have a nicer finish than most cars," Litterick said.
In this test a canoe is completely submerged in the lake and must resurface.
The deciding factor for many canoes is the swamp test.
Students must design a canoe that will be durable and stable enough to carry two powerful rowers, yet small and light enough to maneuver easily through the race courses.
In past years winning formulas have included glass beads, microballoons and the plastic foam beads used in beanbag chairs.
KU students tested 20 formulas before finding the perfect combination of portland cement, silica fumes, ceramic beads, Perlite, super
The swamp test at Lake Mendota in Wisconsin was the maiden voyage for the University's canoe and the culmination of almost nine months of work.
"Our concrete mix was lighter than water, so that added to the buoyancy of our boat," Litterick said. "We had actual test cubes of concrete that we could float in the water."
Some students test up to 70 concrete mixtures before finding the right formula of weight and durability.
"Some of the boats have a nicer finish than most cars."

plasticizer and water.
This mixture was applied slowly over steel reinforcements and vibrated to shake the concrete into place and prevent air pockets.
The surface was later primed and painted.
After the races, the judges check the canoes for duct tape and other repair material that might affect the team's original score.
Kyle Archer, Olathe graduate student, said, "We didn't have to do any repairs during the races. The only problems we had were a few cracks in the front from the rowers' knees."
Archer competed at the event in 1995 and organized the regional competition in Lawrence this year. About half of the students who competed last year in Washington, D.C., returned to the event again this year.
"Last summer was great, and this summer was even better," Archer said. "It's fun to go out and compete and represent KU."

ECM Basement becomes home sweet home
Six students share space, responsibilities as a community
By Emily Redmond Kansan staff writer
A group of five students calls the basement of a campus ministry building home sweet home.
Four women and one man live in the lower level of the Ecumenical Christian Ministries building, 1204 Oread Ave., in a community called "Koinonia."
Koinonia is a Greek word meaning fellowship.
"If the name of the community is not understood, there is no point," said Rev. Thad Holcombe, ECM director. "It means to empathize with others and to be in a community with others."
"Koinonia started so people could live in some sense of community, something that is difficult to experience in this culture," Holcombe said.
Established in 1964, Koinonia is located in an area that previously served as the pastor's living quarters.
STOP BOTTLE WASTING
Each semester, up to six people of different races, cultural and religious perspectives are chosen
to live in the community. Individuals hear about the community through word of mouth or advertisements in newspapers and must fill out a live-in application.
Members of the present community and two ECM board members, usually Holcombe and another student board member, review applications.
One of the most important qualities for an applicant is a willingness to respect other people and their ideas.
"It is so important that everyone is willing to respect others' beliefs because we are encouraged to openly explore them," said Heather LaBash, Oberlin senior.
"It doesn't always happen, but we are fortunate when it does," Holcombe said.
The biggest duty of the review board is to find students with diverse backgrounds.
This year people of different races, religions, majors and ages live together.
Six rooms are available in the living area. Every member of the community has a private room with a desk, a chest of drawers, a bed and a large closet. Two of the six rooms have adjoining bathrooms.
The bedrooms are down the hallway from a sitting area with three couches, a television and an upright piano.
room they get.
"In the past, people got their rooms through luck of the draw," said Ryan Boyd, Lee's Summit, Mo., senior. "This year we decided among ourselves."

Yuchih Suh, Taiwan graduate student, washes dishes in the kitchen she shares with five people. Suh lives in the communal basement of Ecumenical Christian Ministries, where she has her own bedroom yet shares a common living space with her roommates.
Members are responsible for providing and cooking their own meals. But during the regular school year, Monday nights are reserved for covenant dinners. These dinners are prepared by a different person each week and consist of table worship, house business and an open forum. A house member is selected to guide each forum with predetermined questions.
The discussions focus on subjects that provide members with an opportunity to give their perspective on a topic. Respect at covenant meals is especially important.
"We talk about everything," LaBash said. "We need to respect other people's opinions because we are very open and liberal about many issues."
Attendance at Monday night dinners by all members of the community is mandatory. Group building, spiritual formation and conflict resolution are parts of living as a community. Moreover, all members must fulfill a requirement of an hour and a half of community service a week. Each individual is given an opportunity to work with Habitat for Humanity, the LINK kitchen, the Organization of Worship Services and other ECM-sponsored activities.
"It's just like living in a regular apartment," LaBash said. "There are no curfews, no resident assistants, no drugs allowed."
The biggest problem within the community is the phone situation. There is only one phone for the
five residents. But technology in the form of a digital answering machine saves everyone a lot of hassles.
"Sometimes the phone rings so much that we just let the machine pick it up. If the call is important,
the caller will leave a message," LaBash said.
"I lived on my own last year, and it was very lonely," LaBash said. "Here, people are really concerned about you. I know it sounds like the Brady Bunch, but it is so cool."
Rainfall causes buildings to shift
By Dave Breitenstein
Kansan staff writer
Gina Thornburt/KANSAN
This mudslide along Seventh and Florida Streets, caused by heavy rains, is causing concern for students who live near it.
As Lee Johnson enters his apartment, he shoves the door open. He looks out the window and sees an empty space where a hill once was — he knows his apartment could be the next thing to go.
A large mudslide on Seventh Street has caused concern for Johnson, Bartlesville, Okla., senior, and others who live in the area. The mud slide is less than 100 feet from Johnson's apartment on Seventh and Florida Streets. Heavy rain led to shifting buildings, which has Johnson worried about rain-related damages to his apartment.
"I haven't noticed anything drastic yet, but it has gotten worse," Johnson said.
The front door sticks sometimes, the shower door does not close properly and the closet door does not slide smoothly, he said. If the shifting gets worse, he may need to move into another apartment. Johnson said.
Other students have noticed slight changes in their apartments.
John Anders, Wichita junior, said he has had problems with his door not shutting completely.
His apartment at Ninth Street and Emery Road has shifted slightly, but he said there was little that could be done to stop minor movements from occurring.
"I'll watch the wall on Emery and

However, residents may have trouble getting out of a lease because they fear future shifting in their apartment.

still claim abandonment because he'd say that the defects in the house did not rise to such a level that it adversely affected your health," Cocley said.
"If there is substantial destruction of the property, such that it makes it uninhabitable, then the tenant has the right to get out."
"If you leave, the landlord can
Copley said tenants couldn't get out of their rental agreement just because they were worried the
building would become structurally unsafe. He suggested calling a building inspector to determine if conditions were dangerous.
However, according to the Kansas Residential and Landlord Tenant Act, a 14/30 notice states that if management breaches the contract, the tenant can move out in 30 days, unless the landlord corrects the problem within 14 days.
Rally welcomes Dole
Former senator's first campaign stop brings him to Kansas
By Chad Bettes
Kansan staff writer
OVERLAND PARK — About 1,000 people last Wednesday welcomed home former U.S. Senate majority leader Bob Dole at Black and Veatch Engineering's headquarters.
After 30 years in Congress, Dole retired to run for president.
Dole retired from his position of majority leader of the Senate after more than 30 years of service to run for president. He made Overland Park his first stop on the campaign trail.
Gov. Bill Graves introduced Dole to the crowd, which included his congressional replacement, Sheila Frahm and former U.S. Rep. Larry Winn, as well as state legislators and local elected officials.
In his speech, Dole thanked the people of Kansas for their support and outlined what he perceives to be the differences between himself and President Bill Clinton.
Dole said he would not allow U.S. troops to be led by United Nations' commanders. He also said he would sign bills to balance the budget and reforms welfare.
President Clinton has vetoed the Republicans' versions of these bills. "With his record, come Nov. 5, it's going to be Bill Clinton veted."
Dole said.
Dole accused President Clinton of being dishonest with Americans and of using Dole's ideas to sound conservative

Impossible," he said. "It takes about five seconds for him to change his mind."
Dole also addressed issues such as lowering taxes, health care and appointing conservative judges.
Although the speech did not directly touch issues associated with younger voters, Johnson County Young Republican Chairwoman Mandy Santee said young adults could support Dole because he has had experience and could be trusted.
"This event was the perfect example of how young people can get involved in the political process," Santee said. "If you just put forth a little effort, you can have a real impact."
Dole did not directly mention his position on educational issues in his speech. State Rep. Barbara Ballard, D-Lawrence, said she had been concerned with the stance of Washington on higher education, as many universities rely on some funding for the federal government.
"Regardless of who the president is, we need a strong concern for education," she said.

OPINION UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
VIEWPOINT
Clinton may jeopardize votes by supporting bill
President Clinton has announced that he will sign a bill allowing states to make same-sex marriages illegal. This development complicates the president's rocky relationship with the gay and lesbian community.
The announcement, which outraged some members of the gay and lesbian community, leaves Americans wondering whether the president is pandering to religious conservatives. Those who supported him enthusiastically may vote for him only reluctantly in the 1996 election.
The president's actions have damaged his credibility in the gay and lesbian community and among sympathetic members of the Democratic and Republican parties.
That he is willing to compromise the interests of a group of his supporters to appear more appealing to another group is a sad commentary on his loyalty to constituents.
Same-sex marriages
Clinton will lose credibility by allowing states to refute the legality of same-sex marriages.
In the upcoming election, one must consider Clinton's actions on this issue. Loss of moral courage in the face of purely political considerations is not the mark of a desirable leader.
To retain the American electorate's trust, Clinton must link his actions to his rhetoric. Because of his actions, voters are left to wonder whether Bill Clinton can be trusted to safeguard the ideals of any group that supports him.
NICK PIVONKA FOR THE EDITORIAL BOARD.
Kansas' sexual-predator law could prevent repeat offenses
The Kansas sexual-predator law, which was ruled unconstitutional in March, is vital in protecting society from repeat sex-crime offenders and preventing recidivism of Kansas prisoners. Because the law doesn't set a deadline for rehabilitation, offenders are more likely to receive the treatment that they need and less likely to repeat their crimes.
Under the law, offenders may be imprisoned indefinitely until they are rehabilitated if they have personality disorders or mental illnesses that make them likely to become repeat offenders.
The U.S. Supreme Court has announced that it will use the Kansas law to decide whether sexualpredator laws are constitutional. The Kansas Supreme Court ruled the law unconstitutional because it violates the 14th Amendment's due process clause.
THE ISSUE:
Predator laws
Sexual-predator laws provide rehabilitation for offenders and could prevent recidivism.
The U.S. Supreme Court should use the Kansas sexual-predator law to set a precedent for other states. Rehabilitation is not a violation of due process; it is a service to both first-time offenders and to the members of society with whom the offenders will live again. The Kansas law also allows for variation in the length of time individual offenders will need to be rehabilitated.
Premature release of a sex-crime offender who has not been fully rehabilitated only will put society needlessly at risk a second time.

Human-rights violations in Nigeria need attention
In the past two months, there has been relatively little news about Nigeria. But in a country such as Nigeria, where journalists are detained without trial for their opinions and radio stations are shut down for broadcasting critical commentary, no news is not necessarily good news.
Human-rights abuses in Nigeria caught international attention in November when Nobel Prize-winning author Ken Saro-Wiwa and eight other environmental activists were executed for urging the Nigerian military government to clean up their oil-polluted homeland.
Without trivializing the deaths of Saro-Wiwa and the eight activists, arrests on the grounds of political belief without trial are par for the course in Nigeria, a country ruled by military force.
The circumstances of Saro-Wiwa's arrest and trial by military tribunal prompted a U.N. investigation of the human-rights situation in Nigeria. Despite the United Nations' investigation, human-rights abuses persist. We cannot wait for another Nobel Prize winner or any other Nigerian to be executed before we respond to this situation.
Since its independence from Britain in 1960, Nigeria only has had 10 years of democratic rule. The

president of Nigeria, Chief Moshood Abiola, has been in solitary confinement for the past two years. General Sani Abacha, the current military leader, replaced all elected officials with military governors. Nigerians are fed up with military rule and want
democracy, but they cannot gather to organize protests because public meetings, rallies and private organization have been banned. This ban infringes on Nigerians' rights to freedom of expression and assembly.
The military illustrated its disregard for human rights by arresting at least 19 people to prevent them from providing information about human-rights abuses to U.N. investigators.
Despite this fact, the United Nations recommended a "transitional program" from military government to democratic rule. Unfortunately, this recommendation did little to stop human-rights violations.
Nigerians still are arrested and
killed for exercising their basic rights to freedom of expression and assembly. In a June 13th radio broadcast, Chief Anthony Enaharo, chairman of the National Democratic Coalition of Nigeria, reported that a week earlier, Chief Abiola's wife was assassinated for asking that her husband be released from jail and recognized as president. Enaharo is in exile because he fears detention and death for his political affiliations.
Since the Nigerian military government obviously could care less about human rights, the international community should voice its concern in terms that Nigerian military rulers can relate to — money.
Oil makes up 95 percent of Nigeria's foreign exchange, and 41 percent of the daily oil exports comes to the United States.
Write your congresswoman, Jan Meyers, at 2303 Rayburn House Office Building, Washington, D.C., 20515, or send her this article asking for a U.S. embargo on Nigerian oil until the military returns ruling power to the Nigerian people.
Let us exercise our freedom of expression to ensure that Nigerians one day can do the same.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Slaughtering animals for food is unnecessary
I am writing in response to the article "Bardot objects to dog meat sales in South Korea" in the Mav 3, 1996, issue of the Kansan.
The cow, which Hindus consider a pet, a companion and a sacred animal, is slaughtered daily by Westerners who consider these animals to be cattle, not cows. The Western view is that killing cattle for meat is slaughter, not cruelty.
Now Westerners are angry to hear that dogs are killed for meat in South Korea, and the Western media are suddenly concerned about cruelty to dogs and other animals.
pig for meat, yet she considers the slaughtering of dogs to be cruel?
It is considered unacceptable to kill a dog for meat because the dog is man's best friend.
Who is Bardot kidding? It's OK to kill a cow, horse, chicken or
What a joke! The West is hypocritical in pointing out animal cruelty in other countries. The slaughter of all innocent animals for food is unnecessary.
I am a vegetarian, and I believe that by being so, one can lead a healthier, happier and philosophically better life.

Marge Schott all Americans have the right to free speech
Controversy has erupted once again in baseball. Cincinnati Reds owner Marge Schott is in the news for spewing more bigotry.
We shouldn't be surprised. In 1992, Schott was fined $25,000 and suspended for eight months when she referred to former Red Dave Parker with a racial slur too repugnant to print.
STAFF COLUMNIST
Baseball's big shots are sick of Schott, and last week they forced her to give up daily control of the team for the next two and a half years. The decision means that Schott is no longer the official representative of the Reds in league meetings, with team

owners, or in any public capacity.
OWNER OF HIGHLY public capacity. She will retain her ballpark office and private viewing box, and she will have final say on all financial decisions related to the team. In other words, she won't have to work, but she will still get paid.
While America would be better off with one fewer hatemonger, forcing Schott out of baseball is not the solution. She may be a wart on the face of baseball, but punishing free speech is no less tyrannical and detestable than the utterances that got her in this mess.
A boycott of the Reds would send the message that Schott and her kind are not wanted. Such an action would demonstrate broad agreement that bigotry has no place in society.
Some of those riding the get-rid-of-Schott bandwagon justify punishing her because she damages the image of the great American pastime. This may be true. But society is full of people who retain leadership positions despite their questionable rhetoric and the damage they cause to their institutions
Pat Robertson could be considered the Marge Schott of Christianity, and religion is far more ingrained in our national psyche than baseball. Robertson has said that Communism was the brainchild of German-Jewish intellectuals; he has called Jews spiritually blind and deaf. In 1991, he said that Episcopalians, Presbyterians and Methodists possess the spirit of the Antichrist. No matter how objectionable his stance, other religious leaders have not tried to force him to sell either his broadcasting network or his other business enterprises.
Pat Buchanan is another example of free speech at its worst. In his 1992 campaign, he referred to Hitler as a man of great courage. During that time he also said that AIDS was this nation's price to pay for violating the laws of nature. Buchanan's 1996 campaign was a bit more polished, but the message was equally divisive: Immigrants are the root of evil in America. Although he does not speak for the majority of Republicans, he probably will not be silenced at this year's convention in San Diego. He has the right to speak his mind.
We would prefer to be rid of divisive public figures, but we must remember the principles on which this democracy was founded. The First Amendment guarantees Schott, Robertson, Buchanan and the rest of us the right to our beliefs and a right to express those beliefs. We must resist the temptation to silence those with whom we disagree.

Search for coach nearing end
Luedke's decision not to pursue job surprises team
After conducting several weeks of interviews, the search for a new Kansas softball coach may be coming to a close.
Former Ohio
Former Ohio softball coach Tracey Bunge and Michigan assistant softball coach Bonnie Tholl are the two candidates remaining to fill the spot vacated by former Kansas coach Kalum Henkel who

Interim coach Gayle Luedke,
who succeeded Haack, decided
SOFTBALL
not to pursue the position. She was unavailable for comment.
Luedek played softball for Kansas from 1985 to 1988 before becoming a graduate assistant for the team and later a full-time assistant. She left Kansas in August and was a volunteer coach for Texas before coming back to the Jayhawks in January.
Kansas has been searching for a coach since the season ended in May.
"We began with an original pool of thirty," said Betsy Stephenson, associate athletic director at Kansas. "We had two interviews this week, and we are very pleased with both of them."
"We have two choices at this time — to choose between the two candidates we have or interview more candidates."
Bunge was an All-American pitcher for the Kansas softball team in 1986 and was a fourtime All-Big Eight selection. Her single-season ERA, 0.55, and home run output, 9, both remain Kansas records.
"We have two

have or interview

Betty Stephenson KU associate athletic director
Luedke's decision to withdraw as a candidate was a surprise to those closely associated with the program.
"I was very surprised that she withdrew," Stephenson said.
Luedek didn't even tell the team she was leaving.
Kansas junior shortstop
Michelle Hubler said the team was very surprised to learn about Luedke's decision to leave.
"She didn't address the team, and everyone just kind of heard about it through the grapevine," she said.
Kansas assistant softball coach Kim Newborn also was surprised to hear that Luedke was leaving.
"I don't know why she withdrew," she said.
This will be the third time in three years that the softball team will begin the season with a new coach.
"It takes getting used to," Hubler said. "Whenever a new coach comes in, they bring their own ideas and attitudes. Last year it was different because we knew the person coming in. This year we don't know any of the candidates. It will just take time to get used to it."
The new coach will take command of a team that finished 31-25 last season, including a 10-12 record in the first season of Big 12 Conference play.
Stephenson said the new softball coach is expected to be announced today.

About 70 KU students were among the 90 St. Lawrence Catholic Center choir members who performed six times — once for the pope — in Rome from June 7 to 13. The choir visited St. Peter's Square in Vatican City (top picture), the Colosseum (left) and the ruins of Ancient Rome (above).
Student jobs ease cash woes
University, temp agencies popular for flexible summer employment
By Shannon Sprinkel
Kansan staff writer
Most people have a standard picture of a student apartment: a sheet for a bedroom door, a mattress on the floor, crates for a coffee table and a refrigerator stocked with beer and ramen noodles.
For some, these surroundings provide a perfect party atmosphere. For others, modest living serves a greater purpose — it saves money.
For the poor KU student, parttime and full-time jobs are a necessity of life, especially in the summer.
Terry Glenn, director of student employment at the University Placement Center, considers student employment at the University and elsewhere to have two positive effects.
"The first benefit to working part time is of course the extra money," Glenn said. "The second benefit is that students get to know the department better."
Common University jobs include stacking library shelves, filing, typing and computer processing. University departments initially pay minimum wage, but there are many opportunities for advancement.
However, finding a job flexible enough to fit into a class schedule and still pay the rent can turn some students away from campus.
Kelly Temporary Services is one of four Lawrence temporary work placement agencies offering students employment ranging from light industrial and secretarial work to customer service.
James Draper, an accounts repre-
"Students can learn about how things work and then take
advantage of it."
Terry Glenn
director of student employment
sentative for Kelly Temporary Services, said students find satisfying jobs through a temp agency.
"You can enhance your skills because we train you for the job," Draper said. "There is a test we give in the office that includes a writing sample, typing for competency and past employment records. We then try to place someone in the best possible job that will meet their needs."
However, some students prefer to find a job through their own resourcefulness and determination.
Megan Mauer, St. Louis senior,
found a job at Vanguard Airlines
after a week of searching for a job.
"I had a falling out at my last job and was fired without even any notice," Maurer said. "Thad to find a new job fast or pay late surcharges on certain bills."
Maurer heard through a friend that Vanguard was hiring.
"Vanguard employs tons of students, and its fringe benefits are great," Maurer said. "Now that I have a job, all I want to do is take advantage of flying free."

Shelter builds better future for pets
Organization finds homes for area pets
Four Australian shepherd mixes jump around in the cage at the Lawrence Humane Society Inc, 1805 E. 19th St. About 5,000 animals are taken to the shelter every year. The adoption rate is about 75 percent.
By Kelsey Snow Special to the Kansar
Jeremy was a boarder at Lawrence Humane Society Inc., 1805 E. 19th St., a private, nonprofit organization. Several people applied to adopt him, but until early March, all had been denied. Though the prospective owners seemed nice, their homes were not appropriate for the young chow.
Jeremy is one of about 5,000 animals which are brought to the shelter each year. People who want to adopt a pet must complete an application, which includes questions about the potential owner's experience with pets and where the pet would live.
The shelter turns down many applications, but its adoption rate is about 40 percent above the national average.
"We try to place animals in permanent, responsible homes," said Renee Harris, a certified Kansas animal health technician. "We don't tend to get animals back."
A $25 adoption fee covers vaccinations and an identification microchip. The microchip is injected between an animal's shoulder blades. Harris said the microchip encouraged owners to be more responsible for their pets.
Many local veterinarians provide free physical exams and discount-priced spaying and neutering for animals purchased at the shelter.
"We try to encourage people to go to the shelter," said John Bradley, a Lawrence veterinarian.

responsible homes."
Renee Harris
Lawrence Humane Society director
The shelter traces back to 1951, when a group of animal-rights activists sought homes for the area's stray animals as a way of tackling animal overpopulation.
By the 1980s, the charitable work provided by the shelter had evolved into a professional service.
In 1992, the shelter recruited Harris as manager. Since then, the number of animals adopted or returned to their owners has increased by more than 10 percent. The euthanasia rates at the shelter dropped from about 50 percent to about 35 percent during the same period.
Last month, the shelter moved to new premises. Staff members say the new building is twice as efficient as the old one, which was built in 1959. The new building and equipment cost $80,000. The city provided 30 percent of the cost; fund-raising efforts will cover the rest.
The building has four isolated handling units. Each has a separate ventilation system, which prevents disease spreading and reduces animal odors. Animals available for adoption are segregated from those that are quarantined or ill.
size.
Harris said that animals neither claimed by their owners nor adopted would stay at the shelter if there were room. But when the shelter becomes too crowded, it is necessary to euthanize animals, she said. The decision to euthanize an animal depends on the amount of time the animal has been at the shelter, its behavior, health, age and
The shelter uses an anesthetic called Fatal Plus, given at 10 times the lethal amount. Harris said that an animal would be unconscious 10 seconds after the shot was administered and would be dead 30 to 90 seconds later.
Kim Roberts, a full-time employee at the shelter, said that some employees couldn't handle the emotional demands of assisting
with the euthanasia procedure.
"There is a fine line between being an animal lover and working for the welfare of animals," Roberts said. "You have to make that transition."

Pets require time and money
Owners like pets that are furry as well as scaly
By Stephanie Flite Kansan staff writer
Wet from a swim in Potter Lake, two dogs—a Labrador retriever and a beagle mix—run toward the Campanile.
"They're like watching a bunch of five-year-old kids. You have to watch them all of the time," said Eric Brown, Washington, D.C., senior.
"I was surprised that he could destroy a cage from the inside," Brown said. "You need a lot of time, patience and money when you get a dog."
Brown purchased Bailey, a 9-month-old beagle, for the unconditional love and attention a dog provides. He didn't, however, expect the expenses.
Bob Larson, veterianarian at Bradley Animal Hospital, 935 E. 23rd St., said accidents involving pets are common.
"A lot of trauma cases involve cars hitting the animal," Larson said.
Dave Wegner, Libertyville, Ill..
junior, hasn't had any problems with Buddy, a setter-Labrador mix.
"Buddy has been pretty good. I haven't had any unexpected expenses with him yet," Wegner said.
Kim Roberts, public relations coordinator for the Lawrence Humane Society, said pets could be subject to abandonment.
"An animal may be abandoned because no one is willing to take ownership of it," Roberts said. "An animal should not be treated like a novelty, where the charm of ownership wears off after it grows into an adult. College students are ideal owners because they have the time to care for the pet."
"I live in a one-bedroom apartment, so space was a big consideration," Brown said. "I was told that Balley would max out at 35 pounds."
Because dogs are popular pets on campus, space is an important issue for students.
The number of stray dogs and cats doubles and sometimes triples at the end of each semester. The Lawrence Humane Society, 1805 E. 19th St., looks closely at applicants because of that problem.
Potential pet owners are encouraged to read a book about pet care before buying a pet so they know about the care and responsibility required.
make sure the animal will have a permanent home." Roberts said.
"When someone comes in and says they are going to buy a pet, we try to talk them out of it because we want them to know what they are getting themselves into," said Heather Schalk, the reptile department manager at Pet World, 711 W. 23rd St.
"Students should realize that we screen perspective adopters to
Pet World offers information on traditional pets, such as dogs and cats, as well as snakes and iguanas.
"You can't prepare yourself for everything that is going to go wrong with your animal, but we want to make sure that people at least know the basics," Schalk said.
Although amphibians are popular pets for students and are accepted by most Lawrence landlords, snakes and iguanas make only average pets because of the expense.
"Amphibians are costly to maintain since the animal is only as warm as its environment," Larson said. "Owners often lose interest in them long before the pet dies. I wish everyone would think about it before they purchase a pet.
When purchasing a pet, a person must think about the time, space, money and environment they want to put the pet in."

Metallica still has musical power to bring fans back
Review by
MUSIC REVIEW

METALLICA Load (Elektra). While it may not be particularly hair to be a head-banging
---
metal freak anymore. Metallica's inclusion as the headliner in the 96 version of the Lollapalooaza tour shows that the band still has enough musical power to bring
the closet fans back into the open. The group seems to understand the delicacy of
the situation in which the fans must be lured back and not forced. The fellows have lost the metal-god image in favor of a less macho alterna-modern rock look — search no further than the album liner for proof of this. The music on *Load* follows this image change, but not so drastically.
The sixth full-length effort by the original masters of speed finds the foursome slowing the gears down a bit. Make no mistake, this album is still pure Metallica, just more controlled. The songs are hard, driving and powerful. Even the near-country track, *Mama Said*, complete with steel guitar, contains the signature maniacal rigor. Any one hearing Metallica for the first time with this album would be impressed by the band's ability to pack so much energy into
music which is so clean.
That is exactly what Load represents—the final refinement of their sound. As with all great bands, Metallica has changed its sound just enough to keep up with the changing interests of the listening public. Each album since the classic *Master of Puppets* has displayed slightly less edge than the previous, yet has kept the core sound intact. Any more edge removed from Load, and one might start thinking that the group totally had embraced their new image. Overall: 8 out of 10

This initial offering from tri3lfastaction certainly will neither earn the band a newcomer of the year nomination, nor will it get
its recording contract torn up. The album is a quality first- time recording featuring the catchy single Revved Up. Lead vocalist Wesley Kidd's high pitched walling of I Hate Youat least will make one stop and bend an
ear to the radio. Super-

YUM YUM dan loves patti (Tag Recordings). Honey so Sweet and the Girl She Loves Me from the first single Apiary, says everything about the sound of Yum Yum. There may not be a more accurately monikered band in existence. The music on the debut album is a wonderful mix of subdued vocal harmonies and everpresent strings with occasional horns, resulting in a sound that invokes images of one's most pleasant daydreams. The finely chosen lyrics by lead singer Chris Holmes only make the images more clear. Check this disc out. Overall: 9

"Serious Drinks for Drinking Seriously"
Lisa Biehler, Wichita junior, likes to unwind after a long workday by stripping to almost nothing, oiling herself up and getting into bed — a tanning bed that turns her skin a "healthy" brown.
By Matthew O'Donnell Special to the Kansan
According to the National Cancer Institute, sunburn and ultraviolet light can damage skin, and this damage can lead to skin cancer. Both sunburn and a person's lifetime exposure to the sun can cause skin cancer.
Lee Bittenbender, a Lawrence dermatologist, said that tanned skin was not healthy and increased the chances of Biehl and other sunbathers developing skin cancer.
It is estimated by the Skin Cancer Foundation that one in seven Americans will develop skin cancer. Four hundred and fifty thousand Americans are diagnosed each year, making it cancer's most common form.
She recommends that people tan no more than four times a week and never daily.
"Why should I care what happens to me when I'm 50 or 60?" Keller said. "All I care about is looking good now."
Biehler is the general manager of Sunkissed Tanning Salon, 2540 Iowa St., one of six salons in Lawrence.
Brian Keller, Andover junior, also tans to enhance his physical appearance. He said he tanned as often as he liked and never thought about skin cancer.
One serious sunburn can increase the risk of cancer by 50 percent. The effect ultraviolet light has on skin depends on the exposure's intensity and duration, and one's genetic background affects how one's skin will react to the amount of exposure received. The most susceptible people are those with fair skin and a northern-European heritage.
"It is up to the consumer to find a responsible place to tan," she said. "If tanning is done in moderation, it has a lot of positive effects."
Biehler said she tanned for many reasons: relaxing, relieving stress and headaches, and improving her physical appearance.
At the height of tanning season, people must be aware of ultraviolet light's damaging effects, he said.
Biehler said she wasn't worried about skin cancer because the tans in moderation and never burns.
Tan does not mean healthy
"Sunscreen with a minimum sun protection factor of 15 should be used when people go out into the sun," Bittenbender said.
Bittenbender said that was exactly the kind of ignorance that gets people into trouble.
"It does not just happen to you when you are 50," he said. "Not very long ago, I had a patient come in

The American Academy of Dermatology and the Skin Cancer Foundation recommend the following six steps to help reduce the risk of sunburn and skin cancer:
■ Wear clothing that covers your body and shades your face. Hats should provide shade for both the face and back of the neck.
Take precautions
Minimize exposure to the sun at midday and between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m.
Avoid exposure to ultraviolet radiation from sunlamps or tanning beds.
Apply sunscreen with a sun protection factor at least 15 or higher to all areas of the body exposed to the sun.

- Keep children away from excessive sun exposure and apply sunscreen frequently.

The problem with skin cancer is that the sun exposure a person receives today may not affect them for 20 to 30 years, Bittenbender said. And most people receive 80 percent of their lifetime sun exposure by the age of 18.

Looking Back at Music in the '80s
By Emily Redmond Kansan staff writer
Although people may try to forget the decade of greed, students are dredging up memories of the Awesome '80s.
It was a long time ago, in a time when plaid workshirts and mournful lyrics didn't dominated the airwaves yet. Swinging pop stars with streaked hair and narrow ties ruled the music scene. Michael Jackson was the King of Pop, Madonna was still Like a Virgin, and Buster Poindexter was Hot, Hot, Hot.
The '80s marked an era of caring and sharing. Benefit performances, such as Farm Aid, Band Aid and Live Aid, gave entertainers and fans an opportunity to share with the less fortunate.
Rap music became the voice of urban America, spreading the word about sex, drugs and violence while heavy metal became mainstream when Van Halen made its Jump to the pop chart.
Video Killed the Radio Star when cable's MTV made its debut August 1981. Martha Quinn and Downtown Julie Brown have come and gone, but MTV is here
to stay.
Infatuation with the '80s is evident as compact discs featuring '80s music are hot sellers, said Rob Grondahl, an employee at The End, 1000 Massachusetts St.
"We sell a lot of compilation rock of the '80s," he said. "People want to re-live the '80s, and a compilation will do the trick."
Music stores feature compact disc compilations such as New Wave Hits of the '80s, volumes one through six, and Party On: Greatest Rock Hits of the '80s, features soft dance music from Laura Branigan, Sheena Easton and Billy Ocean, among others. Other disc sets feature music from bands such as Warrant, Poison and Bon Jovi.
"People buy it for the nostalgia," Grondahl said.
Some people enjoy the childhood memories the music evokes such as skating the snowball to Bonnie Tyler's Total Eclipse of the Heart or playing Pac-Man on the Atari while listening to the Go Go's Vacation.
"I get this feeling, sort of like an innocence," said Danny Martinez, Shawnee sophomore. "I can return to a time when I was little
and things were simpler."
Eighties music videos have been resurrected and are featured on MTV and VHI. Infomercials pitching the Ultimate '80s compact disc set join the Ab-Flex as late-night entertainment. Some radio stations have an all-'80s format.
"People just aren't ready to move ahead musically," said Jason Justice, music director at KISF 107.3 in the Kansas City area.
The station receives requests for songs from the '80s. However, some of the requests are saved for shows, such as Resurrection Sunday, 9 a.m. to noon, and the Noon Flashback, Monday through Friday, which features '80s music.
"We try to accommodate all the requests, but some songs, like Pac-Man Fever, we wait until the '80s shows," Justice said.
The Granada, 1020 Massachusetts St., gives students an opportunity to get Footloose every Thursday night, featuring music from the early '80s.
Martinez said: "The music is so cool. You know all the songs they play, and even if you don't know who sings them, it still takes you back."

Airline halts to address safety issue
FAA, ValuJet in chaos after crash
WASHINGTON— As ValuJet halted operations, the Clinton administration announced a shakeup at the Federal Aviation Administration, tightening inspection rules and retiring the agency's top enforcement official.
The Associated Press
Officials said that Anthony J. Broderick, the agency's longtime associate administrator for regulation and certification, was taking early retirement. The agency came under fire after the May 11 crash of a ValuJet
FAA Administrator David Hinson announced Broderick's retirement at a news conference, acknowledging that the FAA did not accurately judge the safety of ValuJet before the crash.
VaultJet, under pressure from the FAA halted operations at midnight Monday. Company officials said they hoped to be able to address the agency's safety concerns and resume flying in 30 days.
DC-9 in the Florida Everglades.
Hinson said the new regulations are "an acknowledgement that we need to do it differently and in some cases more efficiently. Yes, we bear some responsibilities in this case."
"The FAA looked itself in the mirror," said Transportation Secretary Federico Pena. "It found that organizational and management changes were needed."
Hinson defended transportation officials' comments immediately after the crash that ValuJet was safe, stressing that the rapid expansion of commercial airline carriers has increased the agency's workload.
be back in operation within 30 days. ValuJet President Lewis Jordan said the airline would provide full refunds for ticket holders.
Hinson noted that the FAA was in the midst of a special review of ValuJet when the plane crashed, while others said the FAA acted too slowly.
The changes outlined were designed to ensure that repairs and general maintenance by airlines and outside contractors are more frequently and rigorously reviewed.
Darryl Jenkins, who teaches airline management at George Washington University, said that firing Broderick is the wrong move.
"The FAA is doing the worst possible thing in the world right now, firing a long-term public servant," Jenkins said. "They're going to lull people into thinking this was caused by a person, which it was not."
"It's the old story with the FAA — what took them so long?" aviation consultant David Stempler said. "This is as much an indictment of the FAA as it is of ValuJet."
Valujet called the FAA action "grossly unfair" and said it hoped to
But a relative of two of the crash victims was relieved that the FAA was acting now.
"I think it's wonderful," said Chau Jones of Rex, Ga., whose mother and stepfather were killed. "This has been a very hard thing to deal with, and I wouldn't want anyone else to deal with it.
Senators release conflicting reports
WASHINGTON — Ending a bitterly divisive 14-month investigation, Senate Democrats concluded yesterday that President and Hillary Rodham Clinton were blameless in Whitewater while Republicans suggested the first lady hid misdeeds and presidential aides lied.
The Associated Press
The special Whitewater Committee issued two reports — one from each party's senators — that disagreed on almost every major issue
The panel's 10 Republican senators suggested Mrs. Clinton was responsible for the disappearance of her law firm billing records, which turned up inside the White House living quarters two years after they were subpoenaed by prosecutors.
"Mrs. Clinton is more likely than any other known individual to have placed the billing records" in the White House reading room where they were found last August, the GOP report said.
The GOP report concluded that a "powerful motive" was fear that the public might learn of Mrs. Clinton's role as a private attorney advising a fraudulent savings and loan development called Castle Grande.
But the committee's ranking Democrat, Paul Sarbanes of Maryland, disagreed with his Republican colleagues. He
referred to their comments as venom directed at the first lady.
"The American people deserve to know, and now can take comfort in knowing, that this yearlong investigation shows no misconduct or abuse of power by their president or first lady," the Democrats wrote in a dissenting report.
Citing alleged discrepancies, the Republicans referred a few presidential aides to Whitewater criminal prosecutors to determine whether they lied in their testimony.
"History will judge these hearings as a revealing insight into the workings of an American presidency that misused its power, circumvented the limits on its authority and attempted to manipulate the truth," said committee chairman Alfonse D'Amato, R-N.Y.
Democrats said the referrals were nothing more than irresponsible claims of possible obstruction of justice.
The Republicans also alleged, contrary to regulators' conclusions, that the Clinton's were not merely passive investors in the Whitewater real estate venture.
"The special committee concludes that the Clintons took an active role in obtaining and extending Whitewater-related loans," said the Republican report.
Yeltsin gives Lebed top security post
The Associated Press
MOSCOW — Boris Yeltsin won a powerful new ally yesterday, appointing Alexander Lebed as Russia's security chief. The retired general immediately attacked the president's Communist foes — then said he had prevented a military coup.
Yeltsin named Lebed, who finished a strong third in Russia's presidential vote Sunday, as secretary of his secretive Security Council and as national security adviser, giving him new, wide-ranging powers. Yeltsin also dismissed Defense Minister Pavel Grachev, a longtime foe of Lebed's.
Within hours, Lebed announced that he had prevented a coup attempt by top generals, and said he would bring the chaotic military under control. He also warned of political violence and promised a crackdown on crime and corruption.
"The situation in the country is very complex and explosive," he said at a news conference. "Whoever wants to defuse it must meet the danger face to face, even with a sword."
The appointment of Lebed is intended to boost Yeltsin's chances in a runoff against Communist candidate Gennady Zyuganov. Lebed said the deal "would serve not only as the unification of politicians, but of the forces serving them." Yeltsin made a clear pitch to Lebed's voters, saying the appointment unified "two political programs."
Lebed's support didn't come cheap. As head of the Security
Council, he will oversee military and police forces and advise the president on major national security issues. Lebed said he also received additional powers, including the right to endorse personnel and structural changes in security organs.
Lebed said he visited the headquarters of several military units early yesterday, assuring himself of their "complete loyalty."
Lebed won a surprising 14.7 percent of the vote on Sunday, but it is unclear whether those voters will now switch to Yeltsin. Zyuganov looked grim after he learned of Lebed's appointment, and Communist leaders scrambled to dismiss the importance of the move.
Analysts say the military brass is loyal to Grachev, while most of their troops admire Lebed.
At the news conference, Lebed spoke grimly of an "approaching calamity" of political violence and accused top generals of plotting a coup against Yeltsin. He later toned down the charges, saying five generals were trying to persuade Grachev, the defense minister, to use force to oppose his dismissal.
"Lebed has no party behind him, no mass organization. Just a name," said Gennady Seleznoy, the Communist speaker of parliament.
"I am choosing the new idea. I'm deeply convinced that the majority of voters who understand me will make their choice," he said. "You can't go very far with old ideas."

Crime report tells half the story
Release lacks vital information
By Andrea Albright Kansan staff writer
For the third year in a row, a student's chance of being a victim of violent crime on campus has decreased.
But don't feel too safe. According to Lawrence police, most crime involving students takes place off campus.
Awareness, the University of Kansas campus crime report, was mailed to faculty and staff early this summer and will be included in the spring timetable of classes.
The report is the University's answer to federal requirements, listing the number of crimes that occurred at officially recognized organizations and on property owned or leased by the University in the past three years.
Yet Barbara Ballard, director of the Emily Taylor Resource Center, said the University could only report the crimes within its jurisdiction.
"Our mission is to focus on the KU campus, not the Lawrence community," Ballard said.
The statistics do not include crimes at fraternities, sororities or neighborhoods with
Danny Kaiser, assistant dean of student life, said it was difficult to include off-campus residential areas in the statistics because students were spread throughout Lawrence. Deciding where to draw the line would be tricky.
large student populations near campus.
Lawrence police said they had no way to determine whether an offender or victim was a student and therefore could not include their crime statistics in the report. If KU police are involved in an off-campus arrest, the University gets a record of the crime. Yet KU police are involved in fewer than 25 percent of off-campus arrests.
"Not all of the crime is on campus," Lewis said. "Students are affected by all crime, on and off campus."
Detective John Lewis of the Lawrence police said students needed to know the statistics in Awareness were for University-affiliated locations.
The University of Missouri-Rolla publishes city crime statistics in its campus crime report. Although city statistics are not mandated, Chief William Bleckman of the campus police department said city crime statistics put campus crime perspective.
"We want to show that the city surrounding campus is relatively safe too," Bleckman said. "We volunteer to give a better overview of the community."

occurred in or near student residences on the KU campus. In Spring 1996, 4,271 students lived on campus. However, 17,615 students lived off campus, affected more often by crime not included in Awareness.
University Relations produced Awareness in accordance with the Students Right-to-Know and Campus Security Act passed by Congress in 1991. The law requires universities to publish statistics for crimes that occur on school property.
In April, Kansas Attorney General Carla Stovall established a campus safety task force in response to two murders at Pittsburgh State University since 1993. The task force meets monthly to explore efforts to protect students.
"Communities across our state are examining ways to prevent crimes and make their towns and cities safer," Stovall said. "It is incumbent upon us to do the same with our college environments."

Church fires spark local interest
Lawrence clergymen ask for a united effort
By Pete Brumbaugh Kansan staff writer
"It can happen anywhere," said the Rev. William Dulin, president of the Ecumenical Fellowship, Inc., a coalition of nine black churches in Lawrence. "Racism is evil. Evil all stems from sin, and sin is not color-blind."
Lawrence is not exempt from the recent rash of church arsons, local clergymen say.
Dulin and leaders of other Lawrence ministerial associations issued a joint statement last Thursday, calling for a united relief effort and an end to racially-motivated attacks. The clergymen and members of the local chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and the Jewish Community Center have joined together to raise funds and pray for an end to the bigotry.
More than 30 arsons at black churches have been reported across the United States in the past 18 months. While most of
"This united effort was something we could all agree on.It creates an awareness that the Church in Lawrence is against racism."
The Rev. Nate Rovenstine
Wesleyan Methodist Church
the fires have occurred in the South, a recent fire at a racially-mixed church in Oregon has caused local clergy to consider the range of the problem.
"You call them copycat fires," said the Rev. Ed Taylor, pastor of the St. James African Methodist Episcopal Church and president of the local NAACP chapter. "If the first fire was racially motivated, then you have to assume that others were started out of the same idea. What it has done is create the idea that racism and bigotry are alive in America and doing well." Taylor said that churches had been targeted because racists understand the power and hope associated with the black church movement in the South.
"The black church is the leader of the African-American people," he said. "It is our supporter; it is our life."
The Rev. Nate Rovenstine, pastor of the Wesleyan Methodist Church and president of the Lawrence Association of Evangelicals, said an arson in a black Lawrence church would surprise him a bit. "But I wouldn't be shocked," he added. "There is a fringe element in Lawrence that could do something like burn a church down. But it isn't likely."
Pastors interviewed said they had not taken special security measures to ward off attacks.
The clergymen also said that organizing the relief effort through the Christian community was the right thing to do to fight racial tensions in America. Rovenstine said he viewed it as the body of believers in Lawrence helping believers in the South.

Husband-and-wife team leave Kansas for more research funding in Texas
Well-known faculty leave University
Several factors influenced the husband-and-wife team's decision to leave. Huston said funding and salaries were important issues as well as a change in scenery.
After 20 years, two well-known faculty members will not be returning to the University of Kansas, having found positions elsewhere.
By Paul Eakins Kansan staff writer
Aletha Huston and John Wright, co-directors of the University's Center for Research on the Influences of Television on Children, have accepted positions at the University of Texas in Austin.
"It (Texas) is a challenge. It's something new," she said.
Huston and Wright said they would receive an increase in salary and funding for research.
"There are a lot of resources in Texas: better funding for research and better pay for graduate students," she said.
Huston said the University did make an attractive counter-offer, but this was something that the University would do only if pressured. If accepted, the counter-offer would have disrupted the University pay scale because faculty salary is below average compared to peer institutions.
"I think that KU's salary is at about 88 percent of that of peer institutions," she said.
Wright said the discrepancy in salary was due to a lack of understanding and appreciation of a research program by the University.
"Teaching undergraduates is part of the job, but so are research grants and activities and graduate student activities," he said. "You need to fund graduate students, research, labs and equipment."
Chancellor Robert Hemenway said that the couple's decision to leave would result in a serious loss.
"Other universities are seeing that KU salaries are low and are raiding us," Hemenway said.
Funding, which helps pay for salaries, is determined by the Kansas senate, Hemenway said. The Board of Regents makes recommendations to the governor, who reviews them and sends them to the Senate. The Senate votes on the recommendations or changes them.
Hemenway said the challenge was competing with other universities in states that were investing more in higher education.
"I'm optimistic that people in Kansas want a first-rate university," he said. "We have to do everything we can to keep faculty here."

Five declare for Senate seat
Candidates cite short primary as an opponent in race for Dole's spot
Sam Brownback
100
Who will replace Bob Dole?
By Stephanie Fite
Kansan staff writer
Five candidates have formally announced they are running for Bob Dole's U.S. Senate seat: Christina Campbell-Cline, a Wichita public accountant; U.S. Sen. Sheila Frahm, former lieutenant governor; U.S. Rep. Sam Brownback; Jill Docking, a Wichita stockbroker; and Joan Finney, former governor.
Although Frahm is running as the incumbent, she still faces a tough primary election campaign. Like Graves, Frahm belongs to the party's moderate wing. Brownback, an activist for term limits and tax reform, is more conservative.
BETTIE MURPHY
She ran for Dole's seat in 1992 as an independent, getting 4 percent of the vote. In 1990, Campbell-Cline ran for governor as an independent, collecting 9 percent of the vote.
Brownback has accused Frahm of practicing dirty politics, citing a letter handed to special interest groups at a campaign fund raiser. Brownback said Frahm was promising special
Gov. Bill Graves appointed Frahm, who will occupy Dole's senate seat until the August primary.
"Gov. Graves did not appoint Sheila because he wanted to fill the seat," said Mike Matson, press secretary for Graves. "He appointed Sheila because he believed she was best qualified for the position."
Joan Finney
Seventy-year-old Campbell-Cline announced her candidacy for the Republican ticket at 11 a.m. Monday, just one hour before the filing deadline for the Aug. 6 primary. A photo of Campbell-Cline was not available.

consideration for early campaign contributions.
"There is a big difference between saying, 'Here is what I think, now decide if you want to support me,' and implying that contributions will determine how you vote," Brownback said in a press release.
John Garlinger, press secretary for Frahm, said the charges were ridiculous.
"This is another example of Sam's rhetoric not matching the reality of his record, another example of saying one thing, then doing another," Garlinger said.
The race between Democrats Finney and Docking promises to be interesting as well.
Docking, a stockbroker, wants to use those practices and ethics as a useful tool to restore balance to government, said Todd Sandness, finance director for Docking.
Finney said that she planned to run for Dole's seat, making the Democratic primary a contest between herself and the Docking political dynasty. The Docking name has appeared three times on winning gubernatorial tickets in Kansas. Docking's husband, Tom, was lieutenant governor as well as the son and grandson of former Democratic governors
Sandness said. "The race is about restoring common sense to the government."
"The race is not about the Docking name,"
Finney was undaunted by Docking's candidacy. "I didn't inherit anything; what I have is my own," she said.
Finney was undefeated in six statewide elections before she left the governor's office in January 1995.
Sandness said he thought Finney had an edge of her own because her name is so well-known throughout Kansas.
He said people want a candidate who effectively reflected their needs, which Docking would do because she does not wish to make a career out of politics, nor does she want remain in Washington forever.
Since the primary is Aug. 6, lack of time is a concern for the five candidates.
"It will be extremely tough," Garlinger said. "It is like a three-front war, because not only does Sheila have to perform as a U.S. senator, she also needs to raise money and campaign."
Sandness also stressed effect of a short primary.
"Sometimes you have a year to do this. Since we don't have nearly that, this primary is going to run quickly," he said.
East meets West in drug research
By Gwen Olson Kansan staff writer
The University of Kansas is furthering international relationships with help from the Taisho Pharmaceutical Company of Tokyo.
The company gave $100,000 to the University's new Dolph Simons Biosciences Research Laboratories, located on West Campus. The donation will go toward an interactive area and conference room in the labs, and help retire the debt of the new building.
Taisho Pharmaceutical, the leading manufacturer of over-the-counter drugs in Japan, has been involved in a growing relationship with the University.
The relationship began when the company's researchers invited Valentino Stella, professor of pharmaceutical chemistry, to a company conference.
"I've sort of been developing the relationship for the past few years," Stella said. "Initially I gave some talks at the company."
The company wanted scientists to spend a year at the University doing research and learning new language, management and problem-solving skills, as well as
Stella learned of Taisho's interest in having a research program in which their scientists could do their research in the United States.
experiencing American culture
The first visiting group completed its work at the Center for Drug Delivery Research in Lawrence. The program will continue at Simons Laboratories.
Taisho Pharmaceutical also has set up grants to purchase equipment for the Simons Laboratories.
"The money we get from Taisho helps to finance some materials from the unrestricted funds," Stella said. "For example, I bought 12 computers so each student with a cubicle in the lab has their own computer."
Atsuhiro Uetake, Taisho Pharmaceutical scientist at Simons Laboratories, said his experience at the University had been beneficial.
"I have been here since last November," he said. "It's a good experience, and I hope to bring back American culture and ideas to my company."
Uetake will continue his research for the Simons Laboratories for another year and return Japan in November 1998.
The joint-venture program of Taisho Pharmaceutical and the University could develop ties that may help students." Taisho has expressed an interest in setting up a program where American students travel to their company to study," Stella said. "My hope is that they will give Lawrence a chance."

Orientation assistants ease transition to college
Sessions inform on enrollment KU traditions
CAROLINA TECHNOLOGY INSTITUTE
By Erin Hubert Special to the Kansan
Just after 8 a.m. on a Saturday, 15 smiling KU students line the ramp leading to Woodruff Auditorium at the Kansas Union. Their crimson shirts are adorned with name tags and buttons that say, "Ask Me," giving the students the appearance of an eager army unit.
Some answers are traditional: manage your money well, get to know your professors, ask questions, and it is okay to be undecided. Others are more practical: sleep is important, coffee is not always the best study aid, and doughnuts and homework don't mix, unless you want glaze sticking your assignments together.
The advice the orientation assistants give reflects their individuality. They take turns responding to the question, "What do you know now that you wish you had known before you came to KU?"
Students and their families crowd into the auditorium. After introductions from faculty and staff, the orientation assistants make their way onto the stage to give prospective students a first impression of the University.
The orientation assistants are the University's front line for providing peer counseling to more than 6,000 freshmen, transfer and readmitted students who attend summer orientation sessions.
Before filling out a schedule, prospective students get into groups led by an orientation assistant to learn more

about enrollment.
Scott Jarboe, spring graduate and orientation assistant, stands before his group trying to cram everything into 25 minutes. Course catalogs, timetables and class lists are shuffled everywhere as he lists requirements and gives advice. He asks for a course suggestion to use on a sample enrollment form.
"Chemistry 184!" one student calls out.
"Ah yes, the mythical 500-person lecture class," Jarboe said. While describing the course, he scrawls information about line numbers and labs across a board.
As suddenly as it began, the bombardment of information ceases. Time is up. The students move to the next session, and the orientation assistants return to the hallways to resume their positions as human sign posts and information booths.
After orientation, students emerge from Strong Hall with schedules in hand.
Leslie Pitsenberger, Topeka freshman, said the orientation assistants were helpful directing traffic because they kept everyone from going the wrong way.
This year's assistant group includes students from Lawrence and as far away as Illinois. Mary Ryan, acting director of New Student Orientation, said that assistants had to be extremely flexible and willing to work in a team.
The team meets four times in April and spends three weeks training for orientation sessions.
Jessica Bobker, spring graduate and orientation assistant, wanted to be an assistant after she went through orientation herself.
"It just looked like a lot of fun," she said.
Assistants study the undergraduate course catalog and timetable, but sometimes the questions go beyond basic
academic information.
Bobker said the most frequently asked question so far has been about obtaining KU basketball tickets.
Assistants are involved in the KU Summer Orientation programs, which run until July 23, and work with new stu
dents during Hawk Week. The assistants earn $6 an hour.
The selection process begins in the fall. Ryan said the application requires information about grades, work experience and an essay. After reviewing the applications, candidates participate in
group interviews.
Candidates that advance must present a speech and are interviewed again. Finalists return for an interview. Fifteen orientation assistants are selected to guide the next year's flock of new students.
Streets damaged by storms leave motorists in the hole
City powerless against elements
By Dave Breitenstein
Kansan staff writer
“It’s hard for them to totally redo the streets, but I think it’s taking way too much time,” said Scott, Shawne junior.
Potholes caused by recent rainfall have been more than an annoyance to Kristy Scott. She had to replace a U-joint on her car after repeatedly driving over bad spots in the road.
Streets in Lawrence sustain weather damage every year, but Scott said she thought this could be avoided.
"They should repair the whole street instead of just temporarily patching up areas," Scott said. "Some spots haven't been
repaired properly."
Mike Wildgen, Lawrence city manager, said that city employees were prioritizing street problems, and that busier streets, such as Sixth Street and 23rd Street, would be repaired first.
"We do $1 million worth of overlay every year on streets that have fallen apart or been damaged," Wildgen said. "Large rainstorms exacerbate some of those areas because water gets underneath the overlay and pops it up. That happens every year to some degree."
Wildgen said streets were damaged by more than just heavy rain.
"Vehicles wear down the road and create potholes, and we put salt on them in the winter, and that also deteriorates them. There's really nothing that can be done to stop that from happening." Wildgen said.
But Wildden did acknowledge that the primary cause of road problems was heavy rain.
"What's been unusual in the storms has been the intensity of the rain. It causes a lot more problems in a shorter period of time," he said.
Tom Orzulak, Lawrence street division manager, agreed that recent storms caused more problems than normal.
"Everything is designed for normal weather," Orzulak said. "If you get nine inches of rain and flash flooding, anything can happen.
"We probably have a month's worth of extra work to do. With all of the other things that we do, it is just added to the list."
Orzulak said busier streets had been cleaned and crews would finish repairing minor streets with a month, weather permitting.
Crumbling library collections may cost $10 million in repairs
Books with acidic paper will require attention
By Tom Moore
Kansan staff writer
A library committee will issue a report next month that warns the University of Kansas to take better care of its books.
The survey, carried out last year, examined the condition of books in the University's libraries. Although a final draft is not yet available, preliminary findings paint a grim picture. Thousands of books are being lost to age and abuse.
"I was hoping it would be better," said William Crowe, dean of libraries. "Our collection is above average, but it is in jeopardy."
Brian Baird, preservation librarian, said 120,000 volumes, or 6 percent of KU libraries' general collections, had brittle
paper. He estimated repairs will cost $10 million.
Acidity in the paper causes books to become brittle, and books that are affected must be copied on new paper and rebound. The survey revealed that 66 percent of the University's books were printed on acidic paper and will need attention in the future.
"I liken it to a slow fire," Crowe said. "These books are literally eating themselves."
More disturbing to Crowe is that more than 400,000 of the University's books have been abused.
"That's the one thing that leaps out at me — the amount of mutilation," Crowe said. "I don't think anyone is consciously going out to destroy the library, but we are here to be used, not abused."
Baird said about half of all volumes that had circulated six or more times in the past 10 years had been mutilated.
Crowe said the percentage of
"Our collection is above average, but it is in jeopardy."

damaged books at the University was high but not greater than that of other institutions of the same size.
"We can't save everything. We don't have the money to do that." Crowe said. "But mutilation can be stopped, and without spending a lot of money."
Crowe emphasized that the study's findings threaten the mission of a library to pass on knowledge to future generations.

OPINION
UN I V E R S I T Y D A I L Y K A N S A N
VIEWPOINT
Ordinance should focus on criminals, not victims
In the interest of public safety, the Lawrence City Commission approved an ordinance last Tuesday that makes neglecting to remove graffiti illegal. A property owner who neglects to remove the graffiti could be punished with the same fine as the perpetrator of the crime. Although the ordinance is aimed at preventing gang activity and other crime, the commission places the blame of the problem on the wrong party. It punishes the victim.
The ordinance states that property owners have two weeks to respond to city notification to have graffiti removed. If the owner responds within this time frame, the city will paint over the graffiti at no charge to the owner. However, neglecting to remove graffiti could cost the victim of the crime as dearly as the perpetrator. The owner could be fined $250 to $1000 and/or six months
THE ISSUE:
Graffiti ordinance
in.jail.
Property owners who neglect to remove graffiti could pay as dearly as the perpetrator of the crime.
This ordinance may be hard on crime, but it is soft on criminals. The city should prevent graffiti at its source by making the punishment for graffiti artists steeper than the punishment for their victims' negligence.
The focus of an anti-graffiti campaign should be prevention through vigilance.
It is in the best interest of property owners to keep their property free of graffiti to prevent crime. However, the city should rely on the owners to remove graffiti and concentrate on the punishment of the criminal, not the victim.
THE KANSAN EDITORIAL BOARD
Students' apathy apparent in lack of participation
It takes the collective efforts of all students to protect student rights and keep a watchful eye on the University of Kansas spending. Despite many opportunities to voice concerns and participate in decision-making at the University, students are apathetic, failing to express their opinions and concerns. The efforts of a few dedicated students are easily countered by more powerful organizations and the administration.
Voting, the easiest and most accessible student participation, is exercised by few students. For instance, the proposed $21 million recreation center, which would have raised student fees from $13 to $90 a semester, attracted only 15 percent of the student vote. This disturbing turnout is
THE ISSUE:
Student apathy
Students should voice their opinions about campus issues and participate in decisionmaking at the University.
slightly worse than that of Student Senate elections, which only brought 3,575 students to the polls.
Once known as the "Berkeley of the Midwest," the University has become a mecca of apathy. As student civil liberties grow more uncertain each day, it would be reassuring to know students would take action if needed. KU students must shed their stereotypical image as indifferent Generation X-ers and voice their opinions about campus issues.

Random acts of kindness restore faith in humanity
After unloading their mountain of items and presenting the cashier with what seemed like a million coupons, they began counting out the amount due in food stamps. I looked away, pretending to be examining some imaginary object
It's easy to be cynical. Every time we open the newspaper or watch the news, we are exposed to a stream of brutality, corruption and divisiveness. This results in a dog-eat-dog mentality that often blinds us to simple acts of kindness that come our way.
I made a recent trip to the grocery store to purchase batteries. Spending money always makes me uncomfortable, so I looked at the selection for a while before I settled for some moderately-priced batteries. I probably would have spent longer, but I thought my lengthy decision process was arousing suspicion among the store employees.
I entered the 14-items-orless express lane and waited my turn. I became annoyed when I realized that the couple in front of me had more than 14 items — a grocery store felony in my book. Not only that, but they were digging through a coupon wallet. It seemed like they had a coupon for every item in their cart.

in the distance. I always feel compelled to respect people's financial privacy, particularly food-stamp recipients. I get so annoyed when others stare and gawk as if they were present live chickens for payment.
The cashier finished the transaction, and the con-
ple moved ahead enough that I could proceed with my purchase. The woman and I made eye contact with each other and exchanged smiles. Before I knew it, she had riffled through that previously annoying coupon wallet and presented me with a coupon for $1 off the brand of batteries I had chosen.
This simple act of generosity from someone who had little to give filled my heart with emotion. I thanked her, and she and her companion were on their way. I barely heard the cashier when he told me what I owed. I had just experienced what is trendly known as a random act of kindness, a simple act of beauty.
This woman didn't know me. She
had nothing to gain from being kind. She reached out and offered a hand to'a fellow human being.I felt that my simple words of thanks were inadequate repayment for the depth of gratitude that I felt.
If you're thinking, "Get a life, it was only a coupon," then you have become hardened to the joy that is found in such an experience. It was much more than a coupon. It was a lesson in humanity.
It made me realize how pathetically self-absorbed I was while standing in that line. I was worried that she was breaking the cardinal rules of the express lane and wasting other people's time, while she and her companion were worried about stretching their grocery dollar. She saw beyond herself and extended an unconditional good deed to a complete stranger.
This event will stick with me forever. It helps me remember that despite all of the reasons to be cynical about life, there are people with the power to restore our faith in humanity with the simplest acts and words. Wherever you are, coupon lady, I hope your life is rich and full.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Mistakes could destroy University's reputation
I am a third-generation KU alumnus and a graduate student at the University. At the end of the school year, I began a research job on campus. After a month, I looked forward to my first paycheck. To my surprise, the check did not arrive on June 14 as it was supposed to. I was promised that it would arrive on June 20 at the latest. I received nothing.
The payroll clerk said that it was not her fault, but the state's. As a starving graduate student, this was distressing. In fact, I bounced two checks to utility companies because the money was not in my account. I was forced to take out an endowment loan for 75 percent of my paycheck.
I assumed this was a rare occurrence, but I have learned this is not the case. My banker informed me that this has become a regular occurrence with customers who are University employees.
I have heard a horror story about a University employee who has yet to receive a check for the entire month of November. Another employee related an experience of a co-worker who was not paid for three months. Most distressing was an account of someone who could not make a car payment because of a missed paycheck. When she demanded documentation for the loan agency that it was not her fault, the University would not give it to her.
reputation as a disorganized and carelessly run institution. This reputation will endure longer than it will take to correct the situation. Do students, faculty, alumni and citizens want this type of reputation for a school that prides itself on excellence? How can the school expect to attract nationally known professors if they can't be guaranteed a paycheck?
This is a large university, and mistakes happen. However, error has become a part of the process. This could earn the University a
I hope that Chancellor Hemenway and other University officials correct this problem before it destroys the reputation of excellence that people such as my grandfather and other Kansans have worked hard to accomplish.

LesBiGayS OK changes name to welcome transgendered
LesBiGay Services of Kansas has changed its name to KU Queers and Allies: LesBiGayTrans Services of Kansas to include those who identify themselves as transgender. Including the word "transgender" in the Queers and Allies coalition also symbolizes a commitment to ending gender prejudice and discrimination.

women, feminine men and intersexuals, which are people often referred to as hermaphrodites. Queers and Allies is a more inclusive coalition, and the name change is a positive step toward equality.
By including transgender in the name, Queers and Allies is explicitly saying to a community of people previously not included by name, "You are safe and welcome here." I applaud members of Queers and Allies for its courage and leadership.
The name change is a logical step for Queers and Allies. Not only are lesbigay people discriminated against on the basis of sexual orientation, they also are targets of gender prejudice.
The stereotypes of lesbigay people have as much to do with gender as they do with sexual orientation. Lesbigay people have increasingly come to see that gender prejudice affects the community.
Heterosexual men and women also are held to rigid gender roles. All men and women who violate what is considered to be acceptable masculinity or femininity, regardless of sexual orientation, potentially are targets of gender discrimination. Thus, it is in everyone's interests to end gender discrimination.
The University has a long-standing commitment to equality. Its nondiscrimination policy forbids discrimination on the basis of race, religion, sex, color, disability, national origin, ancestry, sexual orientation, age, and marital, veteran and parental statuses. I want to encourage everyone to continue to make the University a welcome place for all people, regardless of gender expression.
One way to accomplish this is to include the word "gender" in our nondiscrimination policy, sending a message that the University is a place where all people can learn and work, regardless of gender identity or expression. Now the policy includes the word "sex" but not "gender." Sex discrimination is based on whether one is male, female or intersexual. Gender discrimination is based on one's masculinity, femininity, or androgyny.
Including "gender" in our policy would establish the unacceptability of gender discrimination, provide a formal means to redress grievances and enhance the University's reputation as progressive and equitable institution.
I hope the University will adopt such an inclusive policy so that everyone, including the transgendered among us, will be safe and welcome here.

Law to curb drunk driving
By Emily Redmond Kansan staff writer
A new state law to reduce drinking and driving in underage people will go into effect July 1.
The Zero Tolerance Bill, passed by the Legislature and signed by Gov. Bill Graves, states that an underage driver with a blood-alcohol content of 0.2 percent or higher be charged with driving while intoxicated. The legal limit for persons under the age of 21 is now .08 percent; the level for those more than 21 years old will remain at .08 percent.
One glass of wine or one beer will cause most people to reach a blood-alcohol level of .02 percent.
KU police Sgt. Troy Mailen said, "It will definitely create awareness. Only time will tell if it makes a difference."
Police officers will observe drivers who are pulled over for various traffic violations. If there is probable cause, the officer will administer a series of sobriety tests and a breath

test to the driver. If the driver fails, he or she will be arrested.
Mailen said, "There is a conglomerate of things that help decide whether a breathalizer is needed."
The Legislature introduced the Zero Tolerance Bill in 1996. In 1995, a new federal law went into effect that included a limit of .02 percent blood-alcohol content for drivers under the age of 21. The law also mandated that states not enacting a zero tolerance law within three years would lose some highway
"There will be a mixed reaction, as with any law, especially because it pertains to alcohol, minors and age restrictions," Mailen said. "It will probably get a lot of attention throughout the Greek system and residence halls."
funding.
The .02 percentage allows enough leeway for products with a small amount of alcohol, such as cough syrup or mouthwash, which can be detected in a breath test.
For the past decade, the nation's tolerance for drunk driving has decreased. In 1984, President Ronald Reagan signed a bill that cut highway funds to states failing to raise the legal drinking age to 21. In 1993, Kansas lowered the level of legal intoxication from .10 to .08 percent.
Bethany Burrow, Overland Park sophomore, said, "I don't drive drunk, and I don't plan on letting this affect me. I think people are going to do it anyway."

Draft speculation to end at last
By Matt Woodruff
The question will finally be answered.
The 1996 National Basketball Association draft will be held today and the No.1 pick will finally be revealed to fans.
Barring a trade, the Philadelphia 76ers will have the first pick from this year's class. Most coaches and scouts believe the Sixers will select either former Georgetown point guard Allen Iverson or former Massachusetts power forward Marcus Camby.
"I think Iverson will probably go first this year," said Pat Williams, general manager of the Orlando Magic. "I don't know if that means he's the best, but he fits what Philadelphia needs."
"I think that of all the players in the draft, Iverson is the most ready," said Oklahoma coach Kelvin Sampson. "He will have the most immediate impact."
Iverson is the quickest player in this year's draft, and his shooting range and defense have drawn comparisons to NBA legend Isiah Thomas.
forward in the NBA.
There are some concerns that the 6-foot-11, 220 lb. Camby, who will be leaving Massachusetts a year early, lacks the size needed to play power
"Camby will be pushed around some,"Sampson said.
Sampson said Camby had trouble with bigger players, such as Bryant Reeves, a former Oklahoma State player.
A record number of underclassmen have declared themselves eligible for this year's draft. With so many players coming out early, NBA teams are spending more time and money on scouting operations.
"The top picks are all very young, and there are a lot more concerns about maturity and players not being emotionally ready," Williams said. "Now NBA teams are having to develop players like colleges did a few years ago."
"It certainly affects the competition," Sampson said. "I think it has a domino effect from the NBA all the way down to high school because kids are worrying about basketball and not focusing on going to school and learning to become a good person."
College coaches also feel the effects of their best players leaving before their senior year.
Sampson said guys like Kevin Garnett and Kobe Bryant, who each went straight from high school to the NBA, were sending the wrong message about what's more important: academics and not athletics.
Coaches and scouts say there are three players from the Big Eight Conference—all of them guards—who have a strong chance of getting drafted. Ryan Minor of Oklahoma is picked to go the highest, followed by Jaron Boone and Erick Strickland of Nebraska.
"This is not a particularly strong year for the Big Eight," Williams said. "Minor should go somewhere in the twenties, and I think Jaron Boone will probably be drafted."
Nebraska basketball coach Danny Nee feels good about Boone's and Strickland's chances.
"They're certainly good enough to be drafted," Nee said. "But as far as what number they'll be selected, we'll just have to wait and see."
Although Minor is still projected to be a top 25 pick, people have said that after an outstanding junior year, Minor actually hurt his draft status by staying for his senior year.
"I think there may be some validity to that," Sampson said. "But I think Ryan would make the same choice if he had it to do over again."
"Right now the NBA is trying to limit what a player can make in his first three years, so it really hasn't cost him any money," he said. "He can make up for whatever happens by having a great tryout."
NBA draft could be youngest ever
By Chris Sheridan AP basketball writer
The players keep getting younger, with possibly 20 underclassmen, including high schoolers, going in the first round. Can junior high be far behind? A look at today's possible NBA draft picks:
1. Philadelphia — Allen Iverson, guard, Georgetown. After a hard look at Stephon Marbury, Sixers rookie General Manager Brad Greenberg chooses the quicker of the two point guards. And Iverson, more than Marbury, looks for his own shot.
2. Toronto — Shareef Abdur-
Rahim, forward, California. GM
Isiah Thomas passes on Marcus Camby, who looked like a lock for the Raptors a week ago, and takes the first freshman to win player of the year honors in the Pac-10.
3. Vancouver — Marbury, guard,
Georgia Tech. General Manager Stu
Jackson would prefer Abdur-Rahim,
but he may be gone. In that case,
Jackson picks Marbury or Camby.
4. Milwaukee — Camby, forward, Massachusetts. The college player of the year is too good to pass up for General Manager Mike Dunleavy and coach Chris Ford, even though they have Vin Baker and Glenn Robinson at forward. The Buckes would prefer Marbury.
5. Minnesota — Ray Allen, guard,
Connecticut. The best off-guard in the draft fits with the Wolves, who still need a point guard and tried to swap picks with the Grizzlies so they could get Marbury.
6. Boston — Erick Dampier, center, Mississippi State. The Celtics traded Eric Montross last week to move up to No. 6, and they need a center with Burk's bulk. 6-foot-11, 265 pounds. The pick could be traded for an established center.
7. L.A. Clippers — Antoine Walker, forward, Kentucky. Based on history, chances are the Clips will trade the pick for a solid player with one year left on his contract who will leave as a free agent next summer.

Women's game needs greater media coverage
PAGE 7A
At a University where men's basketball is worshipped, it shouldn't be surprising that Charisse Sampson went unnoticed last week.
It's sad, because Sampson deserves attention right now.
Sampson will be part of KU history as the first woman to be in the inaugural draft for the women's American Basketball League. She was
taken in the 10th round by New England.
The 10-team ABL is the newest professional women's basketball league in the United States and will be trying to succeed where other leagues have failed.
SPORTS REPORTER
SPENCER
DUNCAN
Sampson clearly recognizes the significance of her accomplishment.
"I'm excited to get a chance to keep playing basketball," she said. "This league gives women the first chance to play professional basketball in the United States instead of having to go overseas to play. This is goo"
overseas to play. This is good for women's sports."
But few others seem to care.
On Thursday morning, the news that Sampson was drafted was buried in the back of the local paper. It was no longer than a paragraph. In fact, the entire draft itself got little national attention.
You can blame that on television, Sampson said.
We can blame that or the other. Bumpstones say, "You hardly ever see women's basketball on television," Sampson said. "But when you do, people seem to enjoy it. If there were more women's games on T.V., then I think people would be more excited and take notice. Hopefully, this league will put women's basketball on television, and people will pay more attention."
Players in the ABL will not have it easy. Being drafted in the ABL does not come with the guarantees of being drafted in the NBA.
Woman's basketball is not as revered as men's basketball and probably never will be. However, the athletes taken in last week's draft deserve more attention then they are getting.
Many of the players who will be taken in today's NBA draft are guaranteed to make at least $200,000 a year; the league's minimum salary. Sampson will be playing for less than $50,000 a year. Even players such as Rebecca Lobo and Cheryl Swoopes, who have made names for themselves, will make only a little more than $50,000.
The opportunities for women athletes to earn more are limited. Endorsement deals for women athletes are few and far between.
And there is also no other league that a player can enter if she is cut from one of the ABL teams. There is no CBA for women.
The league will have to fight to do well.
It wouldn't be surprising if the ABL goes belly-up in three years. However, the league deserves a chance and hopefully it will do well. Women's basketball can be just as exciting as men's, it only needs the opportunity to prove it.
Women won't put on a dunkfest, the favorite game of today's NBA players, but it is basketball at its purest and greatest.
Many women have a sharper outside shot and can pass better then most men in today's college ranks because they can't rely on dunking.
Everyone who has the opportunity this winter should see an ABL game. Those who do will be rewarded by seeing athletes who play because they love basketball, not because they are being overpaid.
These women want the same opportunity that male athletes have had for decades - to make a career out of playing a game.
I'll be keeping my eye out for Sampson's first Nike commercial.
Basketball camp focuses on fun

CAMP
Olympics keep Washington from attending camp
Ryan Hasler/ KANSAN
By Spencer Duncan Kansan staff writer
Anyone who stops by the 22nd annual Marian Washington Basketball Camp this week will have a hard time finding Washington. That's because she isn't there.
Washington, head coach of the Kansas women's basketball team, is working in Colorado as an assistant coach for the women's Olympic team.
Although Washington's absence has caused some disappointment, most campers understand why Washington is gone.
"She's gone because of the Olympic team and that is a good reason," said Brandi Wright, a camper from Olathe. "She is doing something that is sort of important."
Chris Hester, coach at the Marian Washington Basketball Camp, shows prospective players how to handle the ball on Monday at Allen Field House.
Renee Brown, former Kansas assistant coach, said although Washington is not around, she left an experienced group of coaches to run the camp.
"We have coaches from all over the place," Brown said, "We have a coach from Oklahoma, one from Iowa, a few that have won state championships and others from around Kansas. We have a great group of people here who have spent their lives coaching. They love to work this camp and that is part of what makes this camp good."
One of the experienced coaches is former KU basketball player and Globetrotter Lynette Woodard.
Woodard was an All-American from 1978 to 1981.
"Lynette is great," Brown said. "She works really well with the kids, and
the kids love her."
During the five-day camp, the girls focus on learning basic basketball skills.
Wright said, "They work us pretty hard. It's fun, and the coaches are great, but they also make sure that we can play better basketball."
Brown said that the goal of the camp
is make the girls better basketball players and to have fun while playing the sport.
"We want these kids to have a basic idea of the fundamentals of basketball," Brown said. "We just try to make them better players. Of course, we also want them to have fun."

Then in the afternoon campers listen to a guest speaker and participate in scrimmages.

Candice McField, a camper from Kansas City, said, "This is my fifth year, I come here every year. It's fun, and I learn how to play basketball."
New softball coach announced
Former All-American returns to alma mater
By Matt Woodruff
Kansan sportswriter
Tracey Bunge, a member of the Jayhawk Athletics Hall of Fame, will return to her alma mater as the new softball coach. She replaces interim coach, Gayle Luedke.
"We are thrilled to have such a fine student-athlete and All-American like Tracey leading our program," said Bob Frederick, athletics director. "She is a product of the Kansas softball tradition, and we look forward to her continuing that success as our head coach."
Bunge looks forward to taking control of a team that some feel had trouble playing as well as they were capable of the last two seasons.

"I've been told by other coaches that there is a lot of talent on the team," said Bunge. "I think it has been hard for the
She acknowledges there will be a transition period, but thinks her background with the Kansas softball program will help.
"The past few years I've kept in touch with the other Kansas coaches, and I've been talking to some of the players," she said. "Obviously, I have some inside info since I played at Kansas. I think the transition will be a lot smoother than it would if I was unfamiliar with the program."
Bunge thinks that the team can accomplish a lot in a short period of time.
"I think our first goal is to maximize our abilities. One of my goals is to get the team back to the College World Series. Whether or not we can do that this year is hard to say, but there are certainly a lot of good things to build on."
Bunge looks forward to the challenge that the Big 12 Conference presents.
She said the competition in the Mid American Conference was good, but it didn't compare to the Big 12.

softball coach at Ohio.
Bunge spent the last three years as the
She coached the team to three consecutive winning seasons, including its first NCAA tournament appearance in 1995, earning her the Mid-American Conference Coach of the Year award.
Prior to her arrival at Ohio, Bunge worked two years as an assistant coach at Yale.
In 1992, Yale struggled to a 12-26 record. The next season, Bunge's work as recruiting coordinator helped the Bulldogs earn a 31-12 record, an Ivy League title, and a third place finish in the ECAC Tournament.
From 1987 to 1991, Bunge worked in the Big Eight Conference as an assistant coach at Iowa State.
In her five seasons at Ames, the team posted a 133-116-1 record, and its first NCAA Tournament appearance.
At Kansas, Bunge was a standout pitcher and designated hitter from 1983-86.
She was a two-time Academic All-Big Eight selection, set five school records and was named first team All-American as a senior.

Packed hotels cloud graduation day
Students should book hotel rooms early
By Dave Broltenstein
Kansan staff writer
Graduation time for KU students usually means a celebration with their family and friends.
But when graduation comes, hotels in Lawrence are packed, leaving students and their families wondering where to go.
advance for his graduation. He called other hotels in Lawrence, but most were full by that time.
Andrew Lee, Gushen, N.Y., graduate student, said that his family had reserved a room at the Holiday Inn, 200 McDonald Drive, a few months in
"I'm glad we called when we did because my family wouldn't have goten a room if they waited any longer," Lee said.
Some Lawrence hotels only are reserving rooms for two or three nights for graduation weekend, which is May 16 to 18, and about half of the hotels are booked to maximum capacity. All hotels in Lawrence are full for parents' weekend, which is October 18 to 20.
Lee said his family had to stay three nights as part of Holiday Inn's graduation weekend package.
fort Inn, which are not completed yet. The Hampton Inn has no vacancy for either weekend.
Lawrence has 990 total hotel rooms, including the Hampton Inn and Com-
Roberta Mead, general manager of Best Western Hallmark Inn, 730 Iowa St., said the staff had booked all of its rooms quite a while ago.
"We were already full for next year's graduation a few days after this year's graduation," she said.
"Our weekend rates are always higher than our weekday rates, but we don't raise prices for special weekends," she said.
Mead said that some other hotels raised their prices during special events, but the Hallmark Inn did not.
Stephanie Hacksma, general manager of Days Inn, 2309 Iowa St., said it had special event rates for parents'
and graduation weekends, and when KU plays a home football game.
"But special rates don't just apply to KU events," she said. "If there is anything special going on in Lawrence, our rates are higher."
Hacksma said Days Inn had not taken any reservations for graduation weekend because of construction and the uncertainty of when it would fully reopen.
"We have a unique situation here," she said. "We're under construction and only operating out of about 30 percent of the rooms that we normally have."
Where to stay
Talley Kimble, front desk clerk at the Super 8 Motel in Lenexa, said it was not fully booked yet for parents' and graduation weekends, but it expects to be.
Lawrence's hotels and motels already are filling up for Parents' Weekend, Oct. 18-20, and graduation weekend, May 16-18. Here is a list of accommodations that still have vacancies.
Parents' Weekend vacancies:
All hotels and motels are full except for College Motel, 1703 W. Sixth St., which does not accept advance reservations.

microbrews is the second brew pub to open in Lawrence, The Free State Brewing Co., 636 Massachusetts St., opened seven years ago.
By Nicholas C. Charalambous
Kansan staff writer
The way the O'Rears tell it, beer is a father and son thing. Alan O'Rear received a home brew kit five years ago as a birthday present from his family, and he couldn't keep his son, Sean, away from it.
The idea of opening the Kaw River Brewery originated at the O'Rears' kitchen table. Jan and Alan O'Rear, along with Sean and their two daughters, Erin and Heather, were bouncing around a few ideas about a change from the doughnut business they had bought in 1993.
"We said, 'What can you do with wheat and yeast? Well, we can make beer,' Alan O'Rear recalled. 'It sounded absurd, but the more we thought about it, the more we thought it was worth checking into.'
About one year later, The Kaw River Brewery, 729 Massachusetts St., opened without fanfare March 30. It became Lawrence's second "brew pub" — a restaurant-brewery that sells the majority of its beer on site — joining the Free State Brewing Co., 636 Massachusetts St.
Nearly three months old, Kaw River is slowly losing its tag as Lawrence's best-kept secret and is establishing a regular clientele. Last Saturday, as Irish folk band Newgrange was tuning up its instruments for Celtic Night, the brew pub busted with people young and old. A kindergartner, wearing a canary yellow T-shirt and propped up in booster seat, was digging into some food with her parents.
That's the variety of customers the O'Tears hope will distinguish them from Free State. The O'Rears also plan music and comedy two or three weekends a month.
"In this town, if you're going to talk about brewing, you're going to talk about Free State," Sean O'Rear said. "Our beer is just as good. Our food is just as good. Our atmosphere is better. Our service is better."
The Kaw River occupies the oldest commercial building in Lawrence to survive Quantrill's Raid, and the interior faintly recalls the time when bars were spit-and-sawdust places. The family stripped 9-inch-thick plaster from the original stone walls and cleaned up the wooden floor. Stunted versions of 1920s-style streetlights illuminate the brew pub's solid-oak bar and sage decor, creating a relaxed ambience.
"You can smell the malted barley. It feels warm and friendly; a family cooking for you and making beer for you," said Jan O'Rear, who used her family's recipes to create the menu. Entrees are priced from $6.95 to $8.95.
--attention. They said they were looking for somewhere to talk and hang out and liked the stronger flavor of microbrews.
But it's the showy display of the sparking steel and copper brew kettle in the window that tells the customer that the focus is on the beer.
Twenty-three-year-old Sean O'Rear, now the Kaw River's brewmaster, developed the recipes for the microbrews during a year off from studying microbiology at the University of Kansas.
The Kaw River has seven of its own microbrews on tap, including a dessert beer. An eighth, Eldon's special chocolate brown, is in the making. There are two guest microbrews from the 75th Street Brewery in Kansas City, Mo. And for those who haven't yet developed a taste for fuller-flavored beers, there are Bud and Bud Light.
"A brewer from 75th Street Brewery and I sat down one day," Sean O'Rear said. "We wanted to make a recipe for the pale, the red and the brown. So we got a bunch of six packs, and mixed six different reds, pales and browns. We tasted each one and took apart the things we liked and took a few things from the beers that my mother, my father and I liked."
Sean O'Rear, who still drinks at the Free State now and then, said he thought the Kaw River's beers leaned toward the European style, while the Free State's were more American.
"A lot of it is about variety," he said. "We make beers that are not like theirs and people get to go to and from."
Sean O'Rear's favorite beer, the River Witch Wheat, has been the summer's best seller. It's unfiltered, has a low hopping — the level of bitterness in the beer — and has a low carbonation. Except for the wheat beer, all the microbrews comply with German purity law that dictates beers are produced from 100 percent barley malt, hops, yeast and water.
Heather Richins, Chico, Cal., senior, and Micki Jacobs, Smith Center graduate student, walked into the Kaw River on a whim. The copper brew kettle caught their
John Etzel, a senior from Kansas State University, said he first tasted microbrewed beer in Portland, Ore.
"Nobody orders a Budweiser in Portland. They look at you funny," he said. "Since I started drinking microbrews, I haven't looked back. It's something about drinking a beer that's brewed here. I enjoy the beer, and I know I can't get it anywhere else."
--percent. Industry analysts say there is room in the market for more brew pubs.
In the past 15 years, microbreweries have flourished in Colorado, California and the Pacific Northwest. As a byproduct of the microbrewery boom, brew pubs such as the Kaw River Brewery have been springing up in the Midwest, brewing beer in small quantities and appealing to a more sophisticated taste than Joe Sixpack's.
According to the Institute of Brewing Studies in Boulder, Colo., only one brew pub existed in the entire United States in 1984. Now there are 553, half of which opened in the past two years.
Kansas City alone has six bree pubs, Topeka and Wichita each have two. When the Sports Page Brewery, part of a corporate chain, opens at Kasold Drive and Clinton Parkway this fall, Lawrence will have three.
And while U.S. beer sales remained flat in 1996, craft brewers posted an annual growth rate of more than 40
Have Americans, who have suckled on Budweiser and Coors for generations, really rediscovered beer?
"Definitely," said Sheri Winter, marketing director for the Association of Brewers. "People are being captivated by the variety of beer."
Like coffee, beer has become a drink for people who appreciate complexity of flavor, she said.
R. C Pewtress Sr., Lawrence resident, agreed that flavor was important. His favorite beer is the German Warsteiner, a taste he acquired after serving for three years with the U.S. military in Germany.
"I think Americans are tired of mass-produced products," he said. "They are liking a more pure product, and you get a better product in smaller batches. Its definitely a step up from Bud."
Winter said that in places such as Portland, Ore., microbrews had taken 8 to 10 percent of the market.
The major brewers haven't suffered, though. Americans drink about 190,000,000 barrels of beer a year, a volume equivalent to Lake Erie. In 1995, microbreweries and pub wines accounted for only 2 percent of that market. Anheuser-Busch probably spills more on it's factory floor than the 1,300 barrels Kaw River expects to roll out, combined with the 2,400 barrels Free State produces annually.
But the major brewers recognize the potential to sell a high-margin product. Miller Brewing Co, rushed Red
Dog, onto the market, and Anheuser-Busch's Red Wolf was produced in partnership with the one of the microbrewery pioneers, Redhook of Seattle.
Robert Weinberg of Robert S. Weinberg Assoc., a market research firm in New York that advises the major brewers, said that 90 percent of Americans didn't like full-bodied beers.
"The leading beers taste like Kool-Aid," he said. "Anheuser-Busch can buy the same material materials as the craft breweries for a hell of a lot less. They don't save money, they are complying to the taste of consumers."
Weinberg, who worked for Anheuser-Busch for five years, said that the major breweries started decreasing the amount of barley malt and substituting rice and corn in their beers during grain shortages in World War II. By the time the war ended, Americans were used to drinking lighter, blander beer.
Microbrewers are helping more than they are hurting the brewing industry because they are kindling an interest in beer, Weinberg said. He estimates microbrews will take no more than 4 percent of market share.
Jerry Steinman, editor of Beer Marketer's Insights, a trade newsletter, said microbrews reflected a desire for novelty.

MUSIC VERED
Beck's music is coolly eclectic: Kill Creek reaches maturity
Review by Andrew Dalton
Beck! Odelay (DGC). In a far gone decade, Barbara Mandrell described herself as "being country when country wasn't cool." Beck is the opposite. He is retro when retro is cool, he is a slacker when being a slacker is cool, and he's even a little country now that country is cool.
On his second major-label release, Odelay, Beck has made further progress on the sound he made popular with his debut, Mellow Gold. The sound is not clearly definable. It is a complex mix of hip-hop, folk, country and pure pop. Each song is embellished with samples from the '70s and '60s, which provide an overall retro feel to the project. Throw in Beck's rapping, flow
ing, seemingly senseless, yet possibly brilliant tikts, and you have his sound.
The album was produced by the Dust
---
Brothers, who were behind the Beastie Boys' Paul's Boutique, Odeley has a similar feel, but it allows Beck to showcase his talent outside the realm of the Beastie's hip-hop. The
first single, Where It's At, is Beck at his funky best. He shows a different side of himself with the almost pure country sing-
along Stissneck. Change his T-shirts and flipped-out pants for chaps and rihstone-studded button-downs, and Beck would be the next George Strait with this album.
No matter what your opinion on Beck's music, it's highly entertaining to listen to a musician who had a blast while recording. Overall rating: eight out of 10.
Kill Creek Proving Winter Cruel (Mammoth). I managed to find time in my not-so-busy schedule to catch these guys at the Bottleneck, 737 New Hampshire St., last Friday. Based on what I had heard from the band's first album, St. Valentine's Garage, and two songs from the new release, I was expecting an evening of raucous mayhem. Kill Creek did not disappoint.
The Lawrence band ripped into its set
with a steady stream of up-tempo tracks that captivated the near-capacity crowd. Kill Creek then slowed the pace with a collection of softer tracks, leading to a slight loss of interest among the fans. The four-piece group reestablished its collective stage presence and capped the show with a
POLICE VIEW
final barrage of steady rockers. Any band that is pushing a new album faces the problem of having to play some songs that are
not suited to be played live, especially in a bar. Kill Creek successfully handled that problem by lumping together all those tunes in the middle of the set.
Proving Winter Cruel shows the band has matured. This record still contains driving guitar cuts like Binky, but the majority of the disc consists of introspective tracks that rely on tempo change and powerful lyrics to catch the ear. Its songs made up the middle of their live set. Kill Creek has a talent for writing smart, complex tracks while keeping the forceful integrity of its sound. It's placing Kill Creek above other area outfits and moving the band up the national ladder. Overall rating: eight out of 10.

Bicyclists want bike lanes in city
Lawrence making plans for paths to meet the needs
A person riding a bicycle passes a car on the road.
Brian Flink/KANSAN
By Paul Eakins
Kansan staff writer
Many bicyclists believe bike lanes are necessary in Lawrence. For many students the bicycle is their only form of transportation. Without bike lanes riding can be difficult and dangerous.
As the number of bicyclists on the streets of Lawrence has increased, so have the needs of the bicyclists.
Tim Perry, Prairie Village junior, said the city should at least consider the needs of cyclists.
The city is attempting to make bicycle travel easier, but many cyclists want bike lanes in Lawrence.
Perry said this is the least the city can do, but bike lanes would be better.
"They expect us to ride as far to the right as possible, but there is a lot of sand and debris along the side of the street. The city needs to at least clean up the curbs," he said.
"Something should be done to create safety for both bicyclists and drivers," said Perry, who is a member of Critical Mass, a pro-bike lane group that rides around the city to show the need for bike lanes.
Buzz Bronicki, Lawrence resident, said his bicycle is his mode of transportation. He said bike lanes may encourage people to bike instead of drive.
"I have serious biking friends who would bike more if it were more convenient or less dangerous," he said.
Michael Combes, president of Terraplane Bicycles, 916 Massachusetts St., said Lawrence is not dangerous for cyclists.
"Lawrence is a congested place—densely packed and populated, but if you use parking lots for throughways, cyclists can avoid heavy traffic," Combsaid said.
As a regular cyclist, Combesd said he supports the creation of bike lanes in Lawrence.
The city has taken steps to make travel easier for cyclists. Last year, the City Commission appointed a seven-member bicycle advisory board, which makes recommendations to the commission about bike lanes, paths and related issues.
Jim Turner, member of the advisory board
said the board was trying to improve facilities for bicyclists.
He said bike lanes are not necessarily the board's ultimate goal.
"Bike lanes aren't a magic answer," Turner said. "They're only useful as long as everyone understands what's going on. Education must take place before."
Turner said if motorists don't know that bike lanes are there, then the lanes won't do any good. Bicyclists as well as motorists must be responsible on the roads.
"We can't ride like idiots." Turner said.
Matt Caldwell, another advisory board member, said bike lanes should be considered.
"Bikes need to be recognized as a legitimate form of transportation," said Caldwell, Lawrence junior. "They have a right to be on the
road."
Caldwell is also a member of KU Environs, which is working to make bike lanes an issue in the fall semester. The Environs office already has received several hundred letters supporting bike lanes.
"We hope to have a rally early in the school year to make it a personal issue for students," Caldwell said.
Fred Sherman, Lawrence city planner, said the commission has endorsed plans for a bike route to begin on campus at Naisimh Drive and end at South Junior High School. The city received a federally funded grant for the bike route.
Commissioner Allen Levine said this plan has met some opposition. Some think advanced cyclists will be impeded by slower cyclists and pedestrians on the path and that accidents may
occur. Levine said he does not think that will be a problem.
"This doesn't happen much on the levee, which is about the same width as the Naismith path would be," he said.
Levine said city officials are planning another bike route, which would run along 15th street, behind the Lied Center, and end by the Daisy Hill residence halls.
As part of a state plan, six-and-a-half miles of pedestrian and bicycle paths will be started in late summer along the South Lawrence Trafficway. Eighty percent of the path will be federally financed, and 20 percent will be financed by the county. Construction will end in November.
"The current plans may not be perfect, but I would rather have a step in the right direction than no step at all." Levine said.
Students, parents find enjoyment in KU music camp
Students participate in 61-year-old tradition
By Mallorre Dill
Kansan staff writer
Students at KU's Midwestern Music Camp know the "seven send-homes."
They know by heart the seven rules that could get them kicked off campus and sent home, such as not visiting members of the opposite sex in their dorm rooms.
But students come away with more than a memorized list of the dos and don't s of dorm living. Many learn that music is not just a class, it's something that can be enjoyed.
Ryan Bier, Overland Park eighth grade student, said the camp is not like school.
"It's more for enjoyment," he said.
Bill Phalen, percussion instructor and graduate student, noticed the students' enthusiasm.
"In my previous teaching experience, I've had a lot of kids who didn't want to be there," he said. "This is a really nice change. It's nice to teach kids who want to learn."
About 1,000 students from junior high and high school attend the camp's three one-week sessions. Each session ends with performances at the Lied Center. Participants can take classes in band, orchestra or choir.
The camp is a 61-year-old tradition at Kansas. Students come from as far away as Poland and as close as across town. Over the years, students have come to KU from 50 states.
Assistant director Bob Duffer said the camp kept him busy, but was enjoyable. He said the performance at the end of the week was the campers' motivation. Guest conductors for the performances are often world-renowned musicians and composers, such as Colonel Arnald Gabriel, a retired commander of the Air Force band.
Parents enjoy it too,he says.
"Parents have a chance to come and see what their kids are doing," he said, chuckling. "And then take them home."

More insects mean more business for exterminators
Ants, cockroaches nuisance to residents
By Dave Breitenstein Kansan staff writer
Finney is not an exterminator. But he has taken on that role in his apartment because the bugs just keep coming.
Killing more than 100 ants and a few beetles is all in a week's work for Scott Finney.
"They come through the windows when they're open and also the door," he said.
Finney, Owatonna, Minn., sophomore, said it has become a daily ritual to scan his apartment for ants and spray them with Raid.
While he kills insects every day,he has not contacted management to spray because he does not think the problem has gotten too bad.
Many Lawrence residents have noticed an increase of bugs this year. Khris Evans, receptionist at Midwest Exterminators, 2500 W. 31st St., said business has increased almost 20 percent since last year.
"We haven't seen more bugs in general, but we have seen a great increase in ants since it's been so wet," Evans said.
In addition to ants, she said that cockroaches are also prevalent in Lawrence.
Evans also said that Midwest responds to calls from all areas of Lawrence.
"It really doesn't matter where you're at in town — they're everywhere," Evans said.
George W. Byers, professor emeritus of entomology, said this year was not unusual in terms of bug population.
"There is about the same amount of bugs this year. Some bugs are thriving now while others are not," he said.
Byers said Lawrence residents should be thankful that insects are delicate and die easily.
"There are a whole lot of iffy things in the life of a bug — it can be too hot, too cold, too wet or too dry. Over 98 percent of mosquitoes do not mature," Bvers said.
Byers said that insects receive a bad rap from humans because they bite and spread disease.
But he said bugs do more good than bad.
"Bugs are very helpful to humans. They pollenize flowers — without bugs we'd have no apples, plums, peaches or honey," he said.

Brewery market expanding
Continued from page 1B
"We're in a period when a certain part of a population is looking to say they've done something different," Steinman said. "People are looking for a different taste and the feeling of being in a different place."
Chuck Magerl, owner of the Free State Brewery, has 19 years of experience in microbrewing. He was humored by Steinman's suggestion.
"This isn't a boutique business," he said. "I don't try to run my business that way. I don't price my product that way.
Magerl wants a greater appreciation for beer's flavor and quality.
As far back as he said, he was learning the craft by visiting the few microbreweries that existed, such as the Anchor Brewery in San Francisco. When he opened the Free State in 1989, he did so on "blind faith" that students would want flavorful beer. Since then, he's raised the price of a beer by only 10 cents, to $1.75.
Magerl's successful lobbying changed state licensing laws in 1987 and made brew pubs in Kansas possible. He said a lot of people were coming into the business to make money, not beer.
"A lot of the price of the product is based on the mentality that we
have to milk them [customers,
now because in three years' time
we're going to have to sell up," he
said.
The River Market Brewing Co. in Kansas City, Mo., and the Overland Brewing Co., in Overland Park, have had several management changes since they opened, and the Westport Brewing Co., in Kansas City, Mo., recently decided to stop brewing.
Last week, the Kaw River Brewery dropped the price of their beer from $2.50 to $1.75 for a glass, matching Free State's price.
"Student's felt the beer prices were high," Jan O'Rear said. "We've decided to drop them and see what will happen."
Jan O'Rear said that the decision to begin with a premium price was about product positioning.
"As a consumer, if they're all priced the same, it devalues the product for me. It makes it the same as everything else," she said.
Though it's too early to say how badly the price drop will affect the Kaw River's first-year financial projections, Magerl's dominant position in Lawrence has left the O'Rears nervous.
"Chuck's hurt the industry because he's artificially lowered the price of beer in Lawrence," Alan O'Rear said, adding that Kansas City brew charged
The brewing process
A mill cracks the barley into grist, and it is transferred to a mash-lauter barrel. Boiling water is sprayed over the grist to create a substance known as wort.
The wort is transferred to the brew kettle. More hot water from the hot liquor tank is added, and the mixture is cooked with hops at a specific temperature for a specific length of time, depending on the type of beer to be produced.
The mixture is passed through a heat exchanger to fermentation tanks in the Kaw River's
between $2.50 and $3.50. "Entry prices are high in this business, and to recover costs, keep investors happy and to get a fair margin is tough."
Weinberg actually thinks the beer is irrelevant. The brew pub industry is based on a gimmick to differentiate one restaurant from another, he said. He's tasted some of the best and some of the worst beer in brew pubs.
basement, and yeast is added. The yeast eats the barley sugars, creating alcohol and carbon dioxide. Fermentation lasts four to six days.
"If you look at a successful brew pubs, they all have one thing in
The yeast is collected at the bottom of the fermentation tanks, where it can be drawn off and reused. The beer is transferred to conditioning tanks where it "rests" at a cool temperature. The beer is mellow for 10 to 15 days, depending on the type of beer.
Then the beer is transferred to serving vessels and is ready to drink.
common: a good menu," Weinberg said.
Only a third of the Free State's sales come from beer. A city ordinance requires that 55 percent of brew pub sales are food.
It's something the O'Rears understand.
"We're not here to compete with the Free State but with everybody who sells beer and food in this town," Jan O'Rear said. "We want to keep food prices where everybody can afford them."
New recycling program welcomed at KU campus
By Dave Breitenstein Kansan staff writer
An improved campus recycling program will begin in the fall semester.
"The goal of the new program is to centralize it through one position," said Mike Russell, director of the department of environmental health and safety.
The office will hire an environmental expert this summer. The specialist will coordinate campus recycling programs and will assist in conservation and pollution prevention and in other areas.
"The coordinator of the recycling program will be at the top of the pyramid, and everybody will work through that person," Russell said. "The new program will definitely be more organized. There's nowhere to go but up, and everything will be an improvement."
In 1993, the environmental ombudsman office disintegrated, which decentralized the campus recycling program. Once the program fell apart, recycling became unorganized and control often shifted.
"There's

minum cans were either not recycled or each school had the responsibility of recycling them on its own. Many other recyclables were collected by various groups.
Russell said the new program was targeted toward students, but it is the students' responsibility to utilize the system.
Laura Senio, Seattle graduate student recycles glass, newspapers, office paper, aluminum and tin cans, cardboard and cereal
boxes. She usually loads her car every two weeks and heads to Wal-Mart Recycling Center, 3300 Iowa St., but she said the new campus recycling program would make it easier for her.
"It's about time a program gets started," Senio, said. "We've needed a new one for a long time."
Russell said convenience was an issue with the new program. Recycling bins will be located in campus buildings and near campus streets so students can unload recyclables from their vehicles.
"There are two big issues with recycling: everybody has to accept and fulfill their personal responsibility, and the recycling program must be accessible."
"If you have any care or concern about the world you live in and want to continue living in a decent environment, you have to invest something in it," Russell said. "It's obvious that we haven't done a good job in the last 30 to 40 years.
Russell said his office would fulfill its obligation, and he expected students to do the same.
"We can put out 15 million recycling containers on campus, but it's up to the students to fill them."

Cancer test avoided by potential victims
The Associated Press
CHICAGO — When Mary Jo was diag nosed with breast cancer, the 47-year-old mother of three was hardly surprised. After all, breast cancer had killed her mother and struck her sister.
But seven years later, Mary Jo, who asked that her last name not be used, has decided against being tested for a gene mutation that can trigger breast and ovarian cancer — even though the outcome could radically affect how her teen-age daughters see their future.
She is not alone in her decision. A new study found that fewer than half of the people with a family history of breast or ovarian cancer wanted to know whether they carried the mutated gene, called BRCA1.
"For some, knowledge is power. For some, knowledge is anxiety," Mary Joa said. She also worries that if she tested positive for the mutated gene, she and her family would be the targets of genetic discrimination.
That was a major worry of those who participated in the study, published June 19 in The Journal of the American Medical Association.
Researchers contacted 279 men and women from families who had been identified in previous studies as carrying the flawed BRCA1 gene. Of those people, 43 percent requested the results of their genetic tests. The participants had the option of receiving counseling before and after the tests.
A BRCA1 mutation is thought to be responsible for about half of all inherited
cases of ovarian and breast cancer.
Besides the possibility of discrimination in employment and insurance, one reason people might not want their test results is their fear of bad news, said Caryn Lerman, lead author of the study and director of bio-behavioral research at Georgetown University's Lombardi Cancer Center.
The benefits of testing include the relief that comes with a negative result, Lerman said. And even those who test positive can benefit from more aggressive cancer screening, she said.
About 5 percent to 10 percent of all breast or ovarian cancer cases are thought to come from inheriting a faulty gene.
Women with the mutated BRCA1 gene have an 80 percent to 90 percent chance of developing breast cancer in their lifetime, while the gene translates to a 40 percent to
65 percent risk of ovarian cancer, Lerman said.
Men were included in the study because they can pass the cancer susceptibility on to their daughters. There is also evidence male mutation carriers may run a higher risk of prostate and colon cancer, Lerman said.
Melody Cobleigh, director of the Comprehensive Breast Center of the Rush Cancer Institute in Chicago, praised the study, especially because it measured participants' emotional health.
After learning their results, non-carriers of BRCA1 mutations showed a significant drop in symptoms of depression compared with carriers and those who chose not to get their results. And BRCA1 carriers showed no increase in depression or ability to function after learning their
results.
"It looks like worrying whether you have the mutated gene leads to the same amount of depression as actually having it." Cobleigh said.
A drawback of the study was that all participants were white, all were from families with strong histories of cancer, 90 percent had completed high school, and 93 percent had health insurance, Cobleigh said.
"It tells us about the possible impact of this test on a rather affluent group of people," she said. "We don't have a clue as to how it might affect other ethnic groups."
In an accompanying editorial, Judy E. Garber and Deborah Schrag from the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute in Boston called for steps to be taken to assure BRCA1 testing is not misused.
Netanyahu ready for peace talks
Prime minister refuses to swap land for peace
The Associated Press
JERUSALEM — Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says he is ready to resume peace talks with Palestinians and other Arabs but cannot be forced to swap land for diplomatic recognition.
Netanyahu said yesterday that negotiations should be held without prior conditions, but he also stressed that the terms for talks should force no side to change its position.
Netanyahu took the tough line after a meeting with Secretary of State Warren Christopher.
Christopher endorsed the prime minister's statement that negotiations should be unconditional, as well as Netanyahu's admonition that there could be no real peace with terrorism.
It was the first high-level meeting between Netanyahu's conservative government and the Clinton administration and was designed to set up the prime minister's July 9 meeting with President Clinton at the White House.
But clear disagreement arose about the cornerstone of U.S. Middle East policy: trading Israeli land to the Arabs for peace.
Netanyahu said Israel and the Arabs would be free to put any position on the bargaining table. But he gave no indication that he has lessened his resolve to hold on to the Golan Heights, a strategic border plateau that Syria demands to make peace with Israel.
This conflicts directly with the U.S. administration's view, although Christopher did not repeat the land-for-peace maxim in his joint news conference
with Netanvahu.
Afterward, U.S. spokesman Nicholas Burns said, "You can rest assured that is still our position. He did not come here to shy away from our positions."
The prime minister also reiterated his skepticism that Yasser Arafat's Palestinian Authority had kept its promise to deter terrorist attacks on Israelis.
But Netanyahu said, "We intend to resume negotiations with the Palestinian Authority."
The secretary of state will take that message directly to the Palestinian leader today. Christopher flies to Cairo to meet separately with Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak, then with Arafat.
Before yesterday's meeting, Christopher had said that he would ask Netanyahu to resume talks with the Palestinians and to implement last September's commitment by the late Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin to limit Israeli troops in the volatile West Bank town of Hebron.
At the news conference, Netanyahu said Hebron posed complicated religious, security and historic questions that needed further study.
On another touchy issue, the prime minister reaffirmed his campaign position that there is a right of the Jewish people to settle Israel.
Netanyahu dismissed calls for dismantling settlements on the West Bank, in Gaza, and on the Golan Heights. Arab leaders at the summit conference in Cairo last weekend, insisted Jews quit East Jerusalem also. Israel took all those lands from the Arabs in the Six-Day War of 1967.
In Cairo, Egypt's foreign minister was not pleased with Netanyahu's performance. "Talk about resuming negotiations with no prior conditions points to Israel's ... skipping over the land-for-peace principle, which is basic," Moussa said.
He said it would be a key topic in today's Mubarak-Christopher talks.
AMA rejects doctor-assisted suicide
Association upholds policy of doctors' ethics to heal
The Associated Press
CHICAGO — A month after Dr. Jack Kevician's third courtroom victory, the American Medical Association yesterday affirmed its long-held stand against doctor-assisted suicide.
The 430 members of the AMA's policy-making House of Delegates supported their board of trustees in the belief that a doctor's responsibility is to heal, to relieve pain and to comfort, not to help people die.
"We here to treat patients, not to do away with them," Dennis Brown, a family practitioner from Schaumburg, Ill., said during the 10-minute debate.
It was the fourth time in two years the AMA rejected suggestions it change its policy on the matter, and the decision came in a virtually unanimous voice vote. The topic was debated more fully at a hearing Sunday.
The policy is not legally binding, but it guides the 296,000-member AMA in directing its considerable lobbying power and financial
resources toward influencing lawmakers, physicians and public opinion. Thirty-four states explicitly make it a crime to assist in a suicide, according to the AMA.
Nancy W. Dickey, a family doctor who chairs the board of trustees, said the vote reflects "a deeply felt ethical principle." The trustees cited explicit AMA policies dating to 1991 and a tradition extending back more than 2,000 years to the Hippocratic Oath.
The AMA reviewed the policy in light of two recent federal appeals court decisions favoring assisted suicide and an apparent increase in public support for the practice. They also were motivated by the continued failure of prosecutors to convict Kevorkian, who has assisted in 31 suicides since 1990. Kevorkian was acquitted in a total of five deaths in three trials.
Ulrich F. Danckers, a retired radiologist from River Forest, Ill., was the only physician to advocate any change in policy during Tuesday's debate. He wanted the AMA to declare itself neutral.
Dankers contended many physicians support assisted suicide but are afraid to say so publicly.
"It is intellectually dishonest for us to collectively get on our high moral horse by declaring
"We're here to treat patients,not to do away with them."
Dennis Brown family practioner
the practice unethical, and then look the other way when our members in ever larger numbers quietly endorse the practice at the bedside," Danckers said.
But Jo-Ellyn M. Ryall, a psychiatrist from St Louis, told the delegates, "There are many, many ways to commit suicide, and you do not need a physician to do this."
"My patients who talk to me about suicide want help and do not want to be killed," Ryall said. "So I recommend that if anyone comes to you, even if they're terminal and they're in pain and they're requesting suicide, that you evaluate them for the depression and anxiety that they probably have, and treat those illnesses."
Survivor relives massacre at site of mass grave
Muslims remember Serbian bus attack
Associated Press
SOKOLINA, Bosnia-Herzegovina — He was one of eight to survive.
Emir Mujik returned four years later to the same meadow where he and dozens of other Muslim men were herded into a rust-red bus by Serbs, who then methodically blew the bus apart with anti-tank rockets.
dead.
All that remains of the bus is a charred shell, a grisly memorial to the dead of Sokolina. Every window is missing, and rusting bullet holes riddle the metal sides.
Mujik, as a principal witness, guided diggers and forensic experts to the site Monday, when 47 bodies were exhumed from the June 14, 1992, massacre for autopsies and reburial by family members.
The exhumation was a sad homecoming for Mujkic, who last visited this field the day after the slaughter, leading residents of a nearby Muslim village there to bury the
As relatives of the victims wailed in the background, Mujkic relived an ordeal he said started when Serbs overran nearby Ahatovici, six miles north of Sarajevo, in May 1992.
After being held for weeks, he and 54 other Muslim men were loaded onto the bus and told they were on their way to a prisoner exchange.
Instead, he said the Serbs purposely destroyed the bus in a barrage, which included anti-tank rockets, near Sokolina, just southeast of Ahatovici.
"There were 55 of us lying down side by side, like sardines," Mujik said. "Then from all sides, shells, small-arms fire and hand grenades began to be fired at us."
Bullets and shrapnel pierced Mujik's hands, but the bodies of his friends and neighbors protected the rest of his body. He survived, buried under piles of bleeding flesh and body parts, he said.
The Serbs left without checking for survivors. Mujkic and seven others waited for nightfall to escape through woods to the
"There were 55 of us lying down side by side, like sardines."
Emir Mujkic mass grave survivor
nearby Muslim village of Vukasovici, whose residents buried the dead the next day.
Boston-based forensic scientist William Haglund was present at Monday's exhumation, representing the U.N. war crimes tribunal in The Hague, Netherlands.
Since the U.S.-brokered Dayton peace agreement took effect in December, human rights organizations and local authorities have uncovered a number of mass graves throughout Bosnia.
Although Bosnian Serbs began and conducted most of the ethnic cleansing, the practice of purging
ethnic groups through harassment and killing also was adopted by Bosnian Croats and Muslims.
Bosnian Serbs captured Ahatovici at the outset of the three-and-a-half-year war in May, as they took control of the hills surrounding the Bosnian capital. The village's prewar population of 2,200 was 49 percent Muslim.
A number of villagers were killed immediately. Those who failed to escape were captured and taken to makeshift concentration camps.
Bosnian Serbs relinquished control of the area around Ahatovici in March, but it took the Bosnian government until now to organize diggers, witnesses and forensic workers.
Halida Mesanovic, a 51-year-old Muslim woman, survived the Serb occupation but lost her twin sons. One was killed the day the Serbs overran Ahatovici, and the other died on the bus.
"I have been suffering for four years," Mesanovic told Associated Press Television at a commemoration marking the fourth anniversary of the massacre. "I wish many mass graves on whoever invented this."
