Shulenburger named provost
Nationwide search ends on campus
By Spencer Duncan Kansan staff writer
After a five-month, nationwide search to find a provost for the University of Kansas, Chancellor Robert Hemenway chose someone close to home.
day. Shulenburger has been at the University for 22 years and has been the vice chancellor of academic affairs since 1993.
The University named David E. Shulenburg provost last thurs
"I am very pleased to be able to hold this position," Shulenburger said. "I have been at this University for a long time, and as provost I now have the chance to make more of a difference."
Shulenburger, chosen by Hemenway from a pool of five finalists, is now the No. 2 administrator on campus.
"I personally reviewed the assessments of more than 200 people who took part in the interviews of the candidates," Hemenway said. "Through this process it became
clear that David Shulenburger was the best candidate."
The provost combines the duties of vice chancellor for academic affairs and executive vice chancellor. The position was created in January as part of Hemenway's new administrative structure.
Wil Linkugel, chairman of the search committee and professor of communication studies, said Shulenburger stood out from the rest of the candidates; he was pleased with the choice.
"He knows the University, and he knows the situation," Linkugel said. "That gives him a slight advantage."
Shulenburger took over the $130.00-a-year position on Monday. He said his first priority is to complete Hemenway's reorganization plan of the campus and then to focus on problems he sees at the University.
"I want to work on a freshmansophomore advising program, I want to ensure that students graduate in a timely manner, and I want to review graduate programs," Shulenburger said. "These are some of the items that need to be addressed."
Shulenburger said he would also work to create a new faculty evaluation system.
Despite a national search by the University to find a provost, some faculty and administrators said they assumed Shulenburger would get
the job because he was already a University administrator.
Shulenburger said he ignored that talk.
"I assumed my probability was 20 percent," Shulenburger said. "I very easily could have not gotten this job. I suppose that had Hemenway known he was going to pick me before the search started, then we would not have had a search at all."
Kansas has not had a provost since the early 1970s.
Shulenburger recognized that people will be paying close attention to him in his new post but said he was not worried about it.
"I feel no pressure." Shulenburger said. "I have been delighted with the reorganization plan, and I want to be optimistic."

Regents want tuition hike of 4 percent
By Tom Moore
Kansan staff writer
A proposal by the Board of Regents would increase tuition by 4 percent for the 1997-98 school year. But the Regents scrapped a plan to charge students $1 a credit hour to improve technology.
The original plan would have brought $611,273 to the University each year. Instead, the Regents accepted a plan to increase tuition by 4 percent, which would include a 0.5 percent allocation of $341,421 for technology in fiscal year 1998.
Gloria Timmer, state budget director, said she advised the Regents against the original set-aside plan.
"If you diminish the tuition revenue by making a setaside for specific plans, if you dedicate money in any way, that leaves a hole in the general funding portion of the universities' budgets," Timmer said. Technology improvements should be part of the general budget.
Either way, students are going to end up paying for technology said Stephen Jordan, executive director of the Board of Regents.
"Institutions are struggling. There's just not any money. Look at the University of Kansas' staff reductions and vacancies. That's largely how they are finding money for technology improvement." Jordan said.
Denise Musser, director of communications for the Board of Regents, said the money for such improvements had to come from somewhere.
"Options are limited right now," Musser said. "Revenue in the legislature is short. Also, there's a feeling in the Legislature that users should pay for services. Students benefit and should pay for these benefits."
Lindy Eakin, associate provost, said that there was a need for a permanent solution on the technology issue.
"In the current political environment, things can change. The real issue is how do you get the state to accept its responsibility? Tuition is 40 percent of our general budget, so students are already paying a big chunk," he said.
Eakin said the University will need to find a long-term solution. If the state did not change its current funding philosophy, increased investments for technology would come from tuition increases or cuts in existing programs, he said.
Student body president Grey Montgomery is unhappy with the plan.
"I'm upset we lost the first deal. The state should pay for these things ideally, but now this is all in the hands of the Legislature, which is sometimes a very long process."
KU grad serves for Bosnian peace
By Andrea Albright Kansan staff writer
Philip Mein didn't take an average trip after graduating from the University of Kansas last summer.
He served in the NATO peace-keeping force in Bosnia as a member of the Army Reserve.
"His aptitude tests showed an ability to adjust to change," Clemons said. "That evidently proved to be true."
Army recruiter Sgt. John Clemons, said Mein was an outgoing, energetic person who liked challenges.
Mein trained at Fort Bragg, N.C., before leaving for Bosnia. The training familiarized him with the history of the conflict in Bosnia, the country's terrain, sniper and mine awareness, and survival training for extremely cold weather.
Mein's battalion of Psychological Operations Specialists traveled throughout Bosnia in four-man
teams. The teams kept civilians aware of evacuations and land redistribution plans, and gathered information about potentially volatile areas and situations.
"Every radio tower they had was gone." Mein said.
As they traveled through mostly vacant cities, Mein and his team went in some of the deserted homes. The evacuated civilians had taken only what they could carry.
While in Sarajevo, Mein stayed in the Olympic ice-skating arena. Across from his barracks were the destroyed suburbs that had been part of the scenic, historic city.
Land mines surround inhabitants that remain in the cities of Bosnia.
The children are so familiar with land mines, they use them to frighten soldiers.
"They think it's funny because the Americans are really nervous about that stuff," Mein said. "They'll disarm a mine, pick it up, and come over and give it to you."
Mein graduated from the University with a degree in computer science. He was able to use his education and his military training in Bosnia.
Clemons said, "The key is to take civilian training and apply it to a military career."
In March, Mein began working full time setting up a computer network at the Joint Operation Command Center.
With three other men, Mein set up internet communications for military units in Bosnia. Mein was sent home last month, a month early, after completing the command post's network

Computer rescue rolls into town
By Andrea Albright
Kansan staff writer
Geeks on Wheels, Lawrence's newest computer business, is riding into town to rescue computer users from drowning in information.
For $35 an hour, Geeks on Wheels will drive to customers' homes and teach them how to use a new computer, repair their hardware or software, direct them on or off the information super highway.
Geeks on Wheels is the brainchild of Dan Simons, director of new ventures at the World Company, the family business that also owns The Lawrence Journal-World and Sunflower Cablevision.
Simons said he was inspired by the problems he had learning to use his computer.
"I was wishing I had a smart friend who could come over and help," he said.
Simons started the business with a light-hearted approach to a serious problem. Computers have made their way into American homes because of their affordability and accessibility, but it is difficult to keep up with rapidly advancing technology.
"There's a ton of computers in the home today," Simons said. "People are swamped, and some don't have a clue. Now you can
call a geek, and we'll fix it."
Geeks on Wheels assesses problems over the phone before making a house call.
"If we don't think we can fix the problem, we won't roll on it," Simons said.
Simons said his employees were serious about the job, but understood the light-hearted concept of his company.
"My employees are technicians when they're at the office," Simons said. "These are people who live computers."
The University also offers assistance to baffled computer users through the Computer Center. The center offer group training and a consultation line. The information window at the center is open from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.daily.
Jerree Catlin, supervisor of training at the center, said the center offered in-home service to students, faculty and staff for $22.50 an hour. Catlin said students could learn more by being walked through a problem over the phone than by having a technician fix the problem for them in their home.
Simons, fourth generation in a media family, started Geeks on Wheels in May. He said he hoped to capitalize on the large talent pools in college towns by opening branches in each city of the Big 12.
Big boom for fireworks stands
Although fireworks stands are big business in Lawrence,stand owners aren't necessarily in it solely for the money.
By Mallorre Dill
Kansan staff writer
Larry Bartz, owner of Bartz's Fireworks, at 31st and Kasold streets, has been in the fireworks business for about five years to teach his children about running a business, to obtain fireworks for his family and to make money.
"I basically got into it for the kids," he said. "So that they could learn a little about business and have fireworks too."
Bartz's Fireworks is one of the 17 stands registered to sell in Douglas County this year. By state law, fireworks stands are allowed to sell only July 2 though July 4.
Dirk Weld runs the fireworks stand for the Kansas Sports Foundation, a nonprofit organization. He said many stands were out to scam the public.
"It's definitely a markup business," Wedd said. "But if I had a choice, I'd want to buy from a place that helps the community."
Wedd, who admitted he also marked up the fireworks, said many places marked
up fireworks by as much as 300 percent. Bartz, who said he didn't pay much attention to his competition when he priced his inventory, thinks locale is the key to a good fireworks stand.
"It's just like a convenience store," he said. "It's location, location, location."
Running a fireworks stand is hard work.
Bartz said he worked on plans for the stand every day for a month, but he said the intense work began last week.
"By Friday I'll be dead on my feet," he said.
Bartz opens the stand at 7 a.m. to prepare for kids who come at the crack of dawn. He doesn't mind the early start, he said. He enjoys the kids, and the fact they that they bring their parents back later. Bartz's stand closes at midnight.
Bartz bought about $5,000 of fireworks this year and said he hoped to gross $10,000 in sales.
All four of Bartz's children help at the stand. His daughter Kindra, 14, said she had learned a lot about business while working at the stand.
"I've learned about how you have to work really hard to make money," she said.
Fireworks Safety
Fireworks may be used within city limits from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m July 3, and 7 a.m. to 11 p.m. July4
Bottle rockets are illegal in Kansas, with penalties of up to $500 per violation.
Use fireworks outside in a clear area, away from buildings and vehicles.
Never carry fireworks in your pocket or shoot them in metal or glass containers.
A responsible adult should supervise all activities. Never give fireworks to young children.
- Never point or throw fireworks at another person.
Bill questions same-sex marriages
- Keep a bucket of water or a garden hose nearby to douse possible fires.
By Gwen Olson
Kansan staff writer
With the presidential election only four months away, candidates have placed a great deal of emphasis on family values.
The Senate is considering a bill, called the Defense of Marriage Act, that would give states the right to not recognize same-sex marriages. The bill defines marriage as a legal union between one man and one woman as husband and wife.
Greta Ford, Jetmore graduate student and historian and publicist for KU Queers and Allies, said she thought Congress should focus its attention on other issues.
heterosexual marriages. There are other issues that are more important, like job discrimination."
Some people on the other side of the issue think that same-sex marriages should not be legal.
Rob MacRae-McKie, Lawrence graduate student and Queers and Allies director, opposes the bill but said he didn't consider it a serious threat.
"The Supreme Court has already ruled queer rights as constitutionally protected, and it cannot be taken back," he said.
controversial Amendment Two unconstitutional, stating that gays and lesbian's civil rights should be protected. Amendment Two was ruled to take away gays and lesbians' civil rights.
President Clinton has agreed to sign the Defense of Marriage Act if passed by Congress. Chris Hampton, Lawrence graduate student and officer for Queers and Allies, questions Clinton's motives.
The Supreme Court ruled Colorado's
"A large part of me believes he will sign this as an election ploy," she said.
Anthony Peleckis III, Laconia, N.H., junior, said that legalizing same-sex marriages would hurt family values.
"I think legalizing same-sex marriages would be another step toward a troubled future," he said.

Fossil museum enjoys world-wide acclaim
By Susan Hartington
(1)
Special to the Kansan
Geologist Alice Hart walks up to a counter with a dark green rock on it, points out a fossil imprint shaped like a flattened stairwell and identifies it as an ancestor of the modern nautilus shell.
The fossil sits in a collection of a quarter-million fossils at the Paleontological Research Museum on the bottom floor of Lindley Hall. The museum's collection has been ranked in the top 10 in the world in terms of size and quality of specimens.
Many students don't know much about the museum because it is not open to the public. As a research museum, only people who want to scientifically study the fossils are allowed to see them.
Xiashui Zhang, Kuancheng, China, graduate student, studies a Neodesmoceras Catarine Maistriction, a fossil at the Paleontological Research Museum in the basement of Lindley Hall. The fossil is one of a quarter of a million in the world-class museum's collection.
The museum, a division of the Natural History Museum in Dyche Hall, houses fossils of invertebrate animals. The fossils are paleontological if their bodies fossilized during a certain time period in history. Most are marine animals, such as sponges and clams, and range in age from 10.000 to 1 million years old.
Scientists and graduate students from around the world ask to study the fossils. Sometimes the fossils are sent to them. If the fossils are fragile, they must be studied in the museum.
The museum has a card catalog and a computer database that organizes the fossils. Like a library with separate card catalogs for authors and titles, the museum has one catalog for the places where the fossils come from and another for specimen numbers.
Erdmée Rodriguez/KANSAN
Al Kamb, the collection manager, and part-time student employees help maintain the files. The museum workers organize the fossils in a database, identify the species and preserve them. The research is left to other scientists and geology students.
Hart said, "It's kind of like the librarians in a library. The librarians don't necessarily use the books for their own purposes. They help other people use them."
The museum uses a numbering system to help scientists find fossils. Each fossil is assigned a number, Hart said.
"We make a little, tiny number and glue it to all of our specimens," she said. "We make a card up that has the number on it and the name. The number will be published in magazines."
When scientists read an article in a professional journal about a certain fossil they want to study, they look for the number in the article and check to see where it is located. Then they contact the museum and request the fossil either by description or number.
Scientists also look for fossils based on where they were found. Since the museum is in Kansas, its collection is made up of fossils found in the middle of the continent. If scientists wanted to study a fossil that originated in the Midwest, they would look at the museum located here.
Sometimes the museum performs a procedure called destructive sampling, where the museum purposely sends a fossil or fossils to be destroyed. Scientists sometimes want only a thin section of the fossil so they can see the internal structures under a microscope. By getting a slice, the rest of the fossil is destroyed. The museum has to decide if it wants to sacrifice a fossil to gain knowledge.
"Sometimes you have to destroy something in order to make it more available for study," Hart said.
Staff members at the University have used the museum for their research. A retired curator for the museum, A.J. Rowell, looked at trilobite fossils from Antarctica for a research project. He used the fossils to help figure out where Antarctica was on the planet and what land masses were close to Antarctica during the Cambrian period, which occurred 545 to 500 million years ago.
However, the pieces of the destroyed fossil are sent back to the museum.
Rowell said it was important to have fossil museums because they were more accessible than some place such as Antarctica.
Hart explained that a fossil is formed from a mold.
"An organism will die, and it will fall onto a surface of mud, and it will sink into it. Then it gets covered by other sediment," Hart said. Minerals in the water and in the sediment will replace the tissue of the organism and form a mold that
Then the fossil becomes a slice of time frozen for today's scientists to view. That history is stored in the University's Paleontological Research Museum.
preserves the structure of the organism's body.
Community attacks gang problems
By Paul Eakins Kansan staff reporter
After four drive-by shootings in Lawrence in the past three months, the community is becoming increasingly aware of a gang presence.
Community organizations such as City Commission, the police department, the court system and the school district are taking steps not only to prevent gang activity, but also to involve all community members.
Four years ago, the city formed the Phoenix Task Force on Gang Issues, comprised of representatives from 25 Lawrence entities, including the University of Kansas.
"Phoenix was formed for the intervention and some prevention of gang activities," said Rod Bremby, assistant city manager and task force leader.
The task force was not designed to eliminate gangs in Lawrence but to make sure that community organizations are aware of the situation, said Bremby, who estimated that there were 70 to 90 local gang members.
In June, the City Commission has passed an ordinance designed to prevent gang-related graffiti by heavily penalizing anyone caught vandalizing property, as well as the property's owner if the graffiti is not removed within two weeks. Penalties include up to $1,000 in fines or up to six months in jail.
Brad Tate, Lawrence High School principal, said that even with 30 to 40 gang members at his school, there had not been any major problems. However, out-of-town gang members came to recruit at the high school and were thrown off campus. he said.
Lawrence police have worked to prevent gang activity by identifying gang members and making the police presence known, Sgt. Susan Hadl said.
"We want to prevent offenses, but we also want to catch them in the act," she said.
The police are 4-for-4 in the apprehension of suspects in the drive-by shootings, Hadl said.
Though a majority of gang activity is committed by juveniles, Diehl said she might push for certain offenders to be tried as adults, depending on the crime and the offender's situation.
Since many gang members are juveniles, the responsibility of prosecuting them falls on Shelley Diehl, assistant district attorney and juvenile prosecutor.
"I have to ask myself, 'Is this a kid I'll see again?'" Diehl said.
Once sentenced, a juvenile offender may be sent to the Juvenile Detention Center, where any show of gang affiliation results in punishment.
"We have a no-tolerance policy when it comes to gang-related activity," said Pam Weigand, center director.
Authorities said that kids were involved in gangs because of boredom.
A local gang member, who asked to remain anonymous, agreed. He said that that he had joined a gang because there wasn't much to do in Lawrence. And because the Lawrence Municipal Pool is closed, teen-agers have more time on their hands and one less entertainment option.
"They don't feel like there is much to do in Lawrence," Weigand said.
International students learn to adjust to American society
By Dave Breitenstein Kansan staff writer
Silvia Mata had trouble adjusting to life at the University of Kansas, but it wasn't because of freshman jitters or extra homework.
Mata is one of almost 2,000 international students at the University who experience culture shock soon after arriving in Kansas.
"When I first came here, I had problems with American food," said Mata, San Jose, Costa Rica, freshman. She said it seemed as if the only things Americans ate were hot dogs, hamburgers, pizza and french fries.
"People are very friendly, they work more hours, and they are clean and very organized," she said.
The main difficulty with the transition has been the language barrier. Mata said.
Daphne Johnston, associate director of the office of international student affairs, said Mata's experience was common. Once students get past the initial culture shock, they usually like American culture, she said.
Johnston said foreign students liked many aspects of life in the United States, including more freedom and friendly people. Students also like the abundance of goods in stores and the low prices of most products.
The Office of International Student Affairs offers an orientation program for foreign students. The program provides housing for the first week. Leaders help students get accustomed. There are informational meetings about the University and the United States as well as discussions on cultural adjustment and campus safety.
Johnston said foreign students arrived before the semester began to recover from jet lag, take an English proficiency exam and accomplish basic tasks, such as establishing a bank account, and buying clothing and groceries.
Although the office tries to provide a smooth transition, many students still experience problems, Johnston said.
"One of the things we've noticed is there are predictable patterns of culture shock for new students," she said.
Johnston said that almost every international student experienced a low point at mid-term, when exams piled up and the initial excitement of being in a new country had faded.
"Very few international students quit school. Students who come from overseas have made such a big investment that they are going to weather through the difficult times," she said.
In Fall 1995, there were 1,770 international students studying at the University, accounting for 7.1 percent of students. One hundred thirteen countries are represented. Malaysian students make up the largest percentage of international students.
Johnston said she encouraged international students to try new things.
"Don't sit back and wait to be invited somewhere, and don't just identify with people like yourself," she said.

UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
VIEWPOINT
University searched nation for most qualified provost
Last week, the nationwide search for a provost ended at Strong Hall when Chancellor Robert Hemenway retained the services of David Shulenburger, vice chancellor for academic affairs since 1993. Perhaps Shulenburger's administrative experience at the University made him a shoo-in for the position, but incumbency doesn't merit job security. By conducting a nationwide search for the provost, the University ensured that it chose the best candidate for the job.
The provost, which combines the positions of executive vice chancellor and vice chancellor for academic affairs will carry out the chancellor's plan for restructuring administration. By combining those two positions, administrative red tape is reduced, and responsibilities of
Shulenburger's administrative experience will be an asset, as he takes on the chancellor's plan for restructuring.
THE ISSUE:
Provost selection
two of the top administrative positions are consolidated into one.
Although it was recognized that Shulenburger, who has worked for the University for 22 years, was a good internal candidate, the University acted in the best interest of faculty and students by exploring its options beyond Jayhawk Boulevard, then choosing the most qualified candidate. Shulenburger's knowledge of the University will be an asset to him and the University, as he faces the challenges of his new position.

Dole chokes on statements about regulation of cigarettes
Last week, Bob Dole said that the Food and Drug Administration should not be too involved in the tobacco business and that cigarettes are not necessarily addictive. These statements reveal inconsistencies.
Dole said he supports proposals banning cigarette vending machines to keep children away from tobacco. Then he announced that the FDA should otherwise stay out of the tobacco business. Who does Dole think will protect the same children from the irresponsible advertisements aimed at them? The tobacco industry certainly hasn't taken much initiative.
Then Dole claims cigarettes are not necessarily addictive. He reasons that people can choose whether to smoke. If they choose to smoke, then cigarettes are addictive. The studies on the dangers of nicotine are endless. Either Dole is in denial of the Surgeon General's warnings or he is willfully ignorant of them.
Dole said he wished the FDA would spend a little more time on medical'

devices and approving new drugs to help people. If the FDA regulates the industry, there will be less need to spend millions of dollars finding cures for tobacco-related illnesses.
The FDA has the authority to regulate the industry because tobacco is harmful and addictive when put to its intended use. Furthermore, the misinformed children of today will be the lung cancer patients of tomorrow. FDA regulation could encourage education from the tobacco industry instead of fine-print labels that children won't read. If the tobacco industry is so profit-driven that it chooses to expand its market at the expense of health care, then it deserves to bear the FDA's imposed restraints.
Dole should re-evaluate his arguments before he speaks.

Lawrence streets less safe at the bottom of the Hill
At the beginning of summer, my mother made me buy a can of Mace. I doubted its necessity; for heaven's sake, I live in Lawrence.
But rather than argue with my mother, I bought some and put it in my desk drawer.
Lately I've been thinking about using it.
Until this summer I had been living in one of the scholarship halls behind Fraser Hall. Now I live at 12th and Kentucky streets.
As last week's paper pointed out, even though it's only a couple of blocks away, things are worse at the bottom of the Hill.
After spending a semester in New York, I have always thought of Lawrence as a harmless little town. In the year and a half I have gone to school here, I have never felt threatened on my midnight walks home from the library or 4 a.m. grocery runs.
And nothing did until this summer.
Maybe I was being naive, but it seemed that nothing bad could happen here.

For example, on campus I felt safe walking or jogging any time of the day or night, but after a couple of evening runs to the leeve, enough people had honked and hey-babyed me that I became more than a little nervous.
The other night my roommate came home frightened and disgusted after being followed by two men calling her derogatory names two blocks from our house.

things aren't exactly peachy during the day.
Last Sunday afternoon my friend and I were walking to our car when some men in a truck honked and whistled at us. If this is happening to not-especially alluring me, its probably happening to others.
Honking and jeering is not a crime, but it's rude, obnoxious and startling. It freightens victims and makes them feel vulnerable. And being followed down the street at night is a foreboding prelude to assault.
It's inconceivable that such things could happen on the nice streets of what I believed to be a nice little town.
All these instances have made me ask, "What has become of Lawrence?"
But maybe Lawrence is what it always has been, and I have been lucky enough to avoid it by living on campus.
So from now on, I'm carry my can of Mace on my keychain.

The Kansas Board of Regents last week proposed a 4 percent tuition increase. The increase would apply to everyone: undergraduates, graduate students, residents and nonresidents. It also affects all six Regents universities, University of Kansas Medical Center, K-State Veterinary Medical Center, and K-State's Soling
State's Sigma College of Technology.
ing the ever-increasing cost of a college education. Before you join the ranks of the chronic complainers, consider some of the challenges already facing the University.
Included in the 4 percent is a one-year, 5 percent increase for technology. Simply stated, this means that we will see our tuition increase from $63 to $65 a credit hour. Some students may grumble about this increase lament-
SHANNON TAUSCHER
Qualified admissions will take affect in a few short years. While the standards are lenient enough to allow anyone with even a slight potential for college success to enter the University, there is a chance that enrollment will decrease. Fewer students mean less total dollars.
These are just some of the problems that the University faces. These problems aren't going to go away on their own, and they aren't going to be resolved without an infusion of cash. Nothing in life is free. While it may not be pleasant to think about shelling out extra bucks for the privilege of taking notes, writing papers and studying for exams, we must be willing to think about the long-term return on this invaluable investment.
Budget cuts are the mantra of government officials, and the University has had its share of belt-tightening exercises. The taxpayers of Kansas should not be expected to shoulder the entire burden of our education.
KANSAN STAFF
A recent Kansan story had Cancellor Robert Hemenway acknowledging the fact that underpaid faculty are being lured away by other institutions. Who can blame those who choose to leave? We all have to make a living. These institutions are able to pay fair-market value for excellence. While this exodus has not yet become a crisis situation, we must find a way to keep the talented and passionate teachers and researchers that are the foundation of our learning experience.
The Regents should not be chastised but congratulated for the courage demonstrated by making a proposal that will allow us, as students, to become partners with the state in preserving the legacy of our educational institutions.
STAFF COLUMNIST
While technology resources at the University exist, they are in short supply. The radical decrease in the student population during the summer masks the frustrating task of trying to find an available computer to use for class work that the regular school year brings. We have more than 20,000 students vying for a few hundred computers. Even the most expert mathematician would be hard-pressed to come up with a formula that results in a workable solution to this sad situation. Sometimes students must wait in line for an hour or longer before a computer is available to complete an assignment.

At center, business is capital idea
By Tom Moore
Kansan staff writer
In seven years, Mike O'Donnell, director of KU Small Business Development Center, has encountered only one idea he would call stupid.
"We had a guy that wanted to build something like Disney World," O'Donnell said. "But twice the size, and he wanted the government to give him the money. I think we estimated it would cost $560 billion."
The center, 734 Vermont St., unites students' intellectual capital with sound planning. Students are encouraged to bring ideas to the center, where they become working models for a real business.
; "I would estimate that anywhere from 5 percent to 10 percent of the people we see are KU students," O'Donnell said. "They are always the most interesting to work with because of their energy and drive."
The center not only has helped business majors, but fine arts students, liberal arts students, journalism students, KU faculty, high school students and teachers and business owners — anyone with an idea.
A small business can be anything from car washes to Internet services, and can be run from an office or a residence hall.
Bennett Griffin, president of Griffin Technology Inc., graduated from KU in 1993 with a degree in computer science. While in college, Griffin used the center to start G-Tronics, a software firm.
"They're kind of like your own board of advisers that is essentially free," Griffin said. "They give you an opportunity to discuss ideas with other people. They provide several resources at different times, they fine-tune concepts."
But O'Donnell said a successful business was not simply about ideas.
"If you have a great idea, fine. But a plan helps you get a higher return on your intellectual capital," he said.
Typically, the center helps budding entrepreneurs develop a plan for their business.
Schuyler Lister, owner of Creation Station, 726 Massachusetts St., said that's the center did for him.
"They helped me write a plan," he said. "They are an absolute necessity in a town like this."
Lister said the center helped nurture the spirit of entrepreneurship and opportunity in Lawrence.
"If you have a great idea,fine. But a plan helps you get a higher return on your intellectual capital."
Small business is no small matter. O'Donnell said that 8 percent of the total U.S. work force was self-employed, and that about 16 million of the 22 million businesses in the United States were small businesses.
offices, and works in cooperation with the federal government's Small Business Administration and the University of Kansas
O'Donnell said that opening a business did not suit everybody.
"It's a big change to go from working for someone else and picking up a regular pay check, to go from having a regular schedule and going home at 5 o'clock in the afternoon, to an indefinite schedule," he said. O'Donnell estimates that a person can spend from 60 to 70 hours a
The center is one of 10 regional
Melinda Bryan, assistant director of the center, said the center helps people differentiate between pastime and lifestyle.
"We help people realize — especially students — what they want," she said. "Obviously, a part-time commitment means you can't open a restaurant."
Small businesses are likely to become more prevalent in an age of corporate layoffs and shrinking job opportunities, O'Donnell said.
"Many students are becoming aware that with all the downsizing and restructuring the benefits of personal entrepreneurship are even better at a younger age," he said.

Kansas softball coach takes reins at Washburn
Gina Thornburg / KANSAN
The Kansas softball team, which lost its head coach, Gayle Luedke, this year, is also losing assistant coach Kim Newborn.
10 8
by Matt Woodruff Kansan sportswriter
This fall, Kim Newbern will begin her first season as a head softball coach.
However, it will not be with the University of Kansas. Newbern will start coaching at Washburn University, who hired her last week to replace last year's coach, John Punzo.
"She had a lot of the things we were looking for," said Lauren Ferre, athletic director at Washburn. "She brings a lot of enthusiasm, energy and knowledge of the game. Her experience as a player as well as an assistant at Kansas are also very important."
With Newbern leaving for Washburn, a Division II school, KU softball must search for new candidates for the assistant position.
"Before the Washburn job, she was definitely being considered, or would have been, for our first assistant position," said Betsy Stephenson, KU assistant athletic director.
Newbern said that the loss of last year's softball coach, Gail Ludke, did not affect her decision to leave Kansas.
"I liked the locale, the smauer environment and the fact that they're very strong academically," Newbern said. "I really just wanted to be out on my own, to lead a team and watch it grow. I'm extremely excited about the opportunity."
Newborn said that Washburn's location was a major factor in her decision. Born in Wichita, she graduated from Wichita Heights High School, then attended Hutchinson Junior College for two years before transferring to Kansas.
After graduating from Kansas in 1994, Newbern worked as an assistant coach at Oklahoma State and helped guide the Cowgirls to a 36-
16 mark and a first-place finish in the Big Eight Conference.
Newbern played at Kansas in 1993 and 1994 and started in every game during her career. Her senior season was her most productive as she hit .272, which was the second-highest average on the team, and registered 89 assists.
Associate athletic director accepts position at UCLA
Betsy Stephenson will leave Kansas in early August
by Matt Woodruff Kansan sportswriter
Betsy Stephenson, who has served as associate athletic director since 1992, will leave Kansas to accept a position at UCLA.
"Betsy Stephenson made a huge contribution to Kansas athletics in her three-plus years on the job," Kansas athletic director Bob Frederick said. "Additionally, she provided tremendous leadership to the Big Eight
Conference during a very important period when the decision was
Betsy Stephenson
made to include Senior Women Administrators as part of the conference's governing body. Betsy should be proud of her many accomplishments at Kansas. We will miss her greatly.
Stephenson will continue her duties at Kansas until early August when she will leave to become the associate athletic director at UCLA.
"UCLA offers new and different challenges that I'm enthusiastically looking forward to meeting," she said. "Most of my experience so far has been at Kansas, and I would like to experience a different environment."
Stephenson said she wants to broaden her career base and experience a different environment.
Stephenson said that a salary increase was not a major factor in the decision.
Although she probably will not be involved in finding her successor, she does have a few words of advice for whoever replaces her.
"I've had a wonderful experience, both personally and professionally at Kansas, and I appreciate the support that I have received here," Stephenson said.
"I'm sure there will be a number of people interested in the position, and I can tell them that their experience here will be a very positive one."
During the upcoming basketball season, part of Stephenson's heart will remain at Kansas.
"I'll be rooting for both teams next season," said Stephenson. "But as for when they play each other, no comment," she said.
During her tenure at Kansas, Stephenson supervised 18 athletic teams. She was responsible for overseeing the operation of Kansas' strength and conditioning program, promotions, equipment and athletic merchandise. She was also chairwoman of the Big 12 board of Senior Women Administrators last year. Stephenson is the chairwoman of the NCAA Women's Committee and is a member of the NCAA Division I Women's Volleyball Committee.
Prior to her arrival at Kansas, Stephenson spent six years at the NCAA headquarters serving in various capacities.
Stephenson graduated from Kansas in May of 1983 with a bachelor of arts degree.
Rayford pleads not guilty to battery charges

Former Kansas men's basketball guard Calvin Rayford pleaded not guilty yesterday to charges of battery.
Rayford was arrested last Tuesday for hitting his girlfriend in the face. He was charged with domestic battery and released after posting a $500 bond.

At the request of Rayford's attorney and with the consent of the District Attorneys' office, Murphy removed a no contact order that had been in place. According to Rayford's attorney, Rayford, who completed his basketball eligibility this
past year, wanted the order lifted so that he could see his child that he has by the girlfriend

Ph.D. doesn't always spell J.O.B.
Story by Jason Strait
The Graduate
1987
Illustration by Ross Sit
Other disagree.
Karen Hellekson has struggled in the musty basement of Wescoe Hall for the last seven years, climbing out everyday to teach her classes and complete her Ph.D. research in English literature.
Now she's near the end of her studies, but instead of seeing a tenure-track job in her future, she sees a stack of about 70 rejection letters.
Those letters represent a system that doesn't produce the jobs it once did, teachers and graduate students say. The letters also represent seven years of work that hasn't gotten Hellekson where she wants to go.
It's a Ph.D. limbo that she's worked herself into during those years. Thousands of dollars in debt and seven years of wasted time, a story many Ph.D. candidates are all too familiar with.
Some simply are giving up dreams of a tenure-track job.
As Hellekson munches on a crispy bagel rescued from Wescoe Terrace's oven, she explains the saturated job market.
"I can't compete." she savs.
Maybe if she were from Yale, it might be a different story, she says.
But she's not
So she'll find something else. A job as an editor, or as a teacher at a private high school. Jobs she probably could have gotten without a Ph.D.
Would she do it again if she could go back to 1989,
the year she entered the program? Do it again for
personal edification? For the satisfaction of learning?
What have Ph.D. candidates been told about their chances for finding a job?
And although nobody expects graduate directors to be fortune tellers, they could at least present the facts to applicants.
The facts are that while the number of doctorates earned in the United States has increased every year since 1981, universities such as Kansas are increasingly unable to hire new faculty because of hiring freezes and budget recessions.
In the English department, the number of tenured professors has decreased from 29 in 1886 to 24 this year. Since 1986, spending on graduate teaching assistants in the English department at the University has increased 82 percent, while funding for professors has increased only 24 percent. The University employed 23 part-time English lecturers in 1996. In 1990, there were no lecturers budgeted for the department. And last year 33 percent of doctorates conferred in the humanities were still seeking employment after graduating — highest among all fields of study.
But even now, with so many Ph.D.s underemployed, graduate directors continue to keep those kinds of facts to themselves.
Angel Kwolek-Folland, director of graduate studies in the history department, said the department intentionally doesn't give applicants all the facts about the job market.
"We don't sit people down and tell them that the job market is good or bad," she said.
There is a balance, kwolek-Folland said, between accepting an appropriate number of people in an honest fashion and not squelching the hopes and dreams of those who are applying.
"Because they could be the ones who get the jobs," she said.
Robert Harrington, president of the KU chapter of American Association of University of Professors, said the job market in his field, psychology, was also bleak and that departments had an ethical obligation to tell applicants about their employment prospects.
"They ought to be told in an honest way what their chances are so they don't waste their time," he said. "For many, it is lost income and lost time. It's the fair thing to do."
Some departments, such as English and philosophy,
are telling the bad news to their applicants these days.
Laura Wexler, graduate teaching assistant in English, decided against entering the Ph.D. program because the English department is telling applicants that the future is bleak.
But that's too little, too late for Hellekson and her colleagues.
Christy Prall, graduate teaching assistant in English and Ph.D. candidate, said she, too, was not told of the bleak job market for English literature Ph.D.s. Instead, she was told four years ago that tenure-track jobs would increase.
According to people like Clay Shoenfeld, recent retiree from the University of Wisconsin-Madison and author of seven books on higher education, faculty indeed are retiring at an increased rate.
"In roughly the next dozen years, more staff and faculty will retire at more institutions of higher education than in any other comparable period in the history of the country," Shoenfeld wrote in an article published in 1993. "The reason is simple — the unusually large cohort of personnel hired to staff the explosive growth of the higher education establishment in the 1955-65 period and beyond. These graying faculty and staff are now entering the zone of normal retirement age.
But instead of a new dawn of opportunity, Ph.D.s have experienced an employment eclipse. Faculty retired all right, but positions didn't open up. And ironically, the enemy filling tenure-track jobs is familiar to the very Ph.D. candidates who are searching for them. Fortunately, it's themselves
It was something many people in academe expected. Faculty were growing old, and retirements were on the horizon.
The English department has 47 tenure-track positions in its department and 62 GTAs. Sixty-two GTAs that, in a perfect world, could be 20 or 30 faculty members.
GTAs are filling up the classrooms and eliminating tenure-track iobs.
"Over time what you'll see is a pattern of courses at lower levels taught more by graduate students," predicted Michael Johnson, chairman of the English department.
Harrington agreed with Johnson.
"They're doing what we used to hire faculty to do," he said.
In fact, the freshman and sophomore years are dominated by graduate teaching assistant faces.
Graduate students are being hired to teach introductory classes like ENGL101, MATH101 and PSYC101.
In the Freshman/Sophomore Experience, a report compiled by the Office of Academic Affairs last year, the committee criticized the lack of faculty in lower-level classes.
"First-year and second-year students need a greater exposure to full-time faculty, and faculty need more exposure to such students," the report said. "This could be accomplished in two ways: first, rethink teaching assignments so that more faculty teach first- and second-year students than at present and, secondly, use more faculty as first-year advisers."
But none of these things have happened, and the GTA influence is creeping up the course listing numbers and reducing the need for more faculty members.
In addition to teaching ENGL 102 Composition and Literature, GTA Prahl teaches ENGL 351 Fiction Writing I. And she's not the only GTA teaching high-level courses.
The University maintains that only 25 percent its courses are taught by graduate students. But those numbers don't tell the entire story.
Larger classes that have a faculty lecturer but graduate-led discussions are considered solely faculty-taught. But it is the GTAs who undergraduates know.
not the faculty mem-
Hellekson, like most graduate students, also advises many of her students.
GTAs are teachers, they are advisers, but they're not faculty.
Harrington said he could see why GTAs considered themselves employees. They're doing the work of a faculty member, but not receiving the credit. Harrington said the University is hiring more and more non-tenure track faculty. Departments are downsizing, and the University hiring freeze adds to the problem.
"Definitely the hiring freeze has affected how many people we can hire into tenure-track jobs," said David Shulenburger, vice-chancellor for academic affairs.
But even though universities are hiring fewer faculty, some are still clinging to the dream.
They're called "gypsy" or "freeway" faculty.
To make ends meet, they travel the highways of northeast Kansas teaching at small schools.
They teach at Johnson County Community College in Overland Park, Baker University in Baldwin City and small schools in the Kansas City area. But the hours on the highways all lead back to their part-time jobs at Kansas.
They're handling two or three positions at different schools, teaching about 18 hours, with the hopes that one of them will lead to a tenure-track job.
They're people like M.J. McClendon.
McClendon, who got her Ph.D. from Kansas, is a KU lecturer and an instructor at Avila College in Kansas City, Mo., and Baker University.
She makes about $9,000 a year at Kansas and about $2,000 a semester at the other two schools combined. Hartnical weekday.
Monday morning she leaves for Kansas City at 8 a.m. to teach at Avila from 9:30 a.m. to 3:15 p.m.
She then drives from Kansas City to Topeka to teach a night class for Baker from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m.
She gets home about 11 p.m., grades papers, prepares for lecturing the next day at Kansas and sleeps for three or four hours. The next day, she does it all again.

MUSIC REVIEW
King's X offers spiritual lift; Magnapop is bleak and furious
Review by Andrew Dolton
King's X Ear Candy (Atlantic). In 1988, King's X released its first album.
Andrew Dalton
Out of the Silent Planet, and has since been regarded as long on critical acclaim but short on commercial success.
Lead vocalist/bassist Doug Pinnick and drummer Jerry Gaskill originally were in popular Christian rock group Petra. King's X does not like to consider itself a Christian
The band's songs are musically complex and have powerful, positive lyrics.
rock band, but merely a band whose members are Christians. The lack of success might be attributed to King's X's writing songs meant to deliver their message, not to sell records.
Ear Candy finds the group delivering spiritually-based themes through bass-laden hard rock. This release features a slight decrease in volume, which may allow the band's hooks to come across more clearly.
Past albums and past live shows were often played at ear-shattering decibel levels, which led to a mass of noise rather than distinct sounds.
The messages on Ear Candy range from the problems of modern families, Father and Picture, to the need for some sort of guidance, Sometime and (thinking and wondering) What I'm Gonna Do. Overall: 8 out of 10
Magnapop Rubbing Doesn't Help (Priority
Records). The bubble-gum pop sound of the album's first single, *Open the Door*, belies Magnapop's true style. The Atlanta-based quartet's second album consists mostly of songs with dark themes and darker lyrics. Lyrics such as "I could crucify you" and "nicely knife you" on the track Hold You Down exemplify the entire album's bleakness.
The upbeat Open the Door relays the frustration of realizing the inevitability of the death of friends and family.
On the whole, the new record is fast and furious. Juicy Fruit is nearly punk. The tracks are played with sincere intensity.
Lead vocalist Linda Hopper's enchanting vocals complement the heavy guitar licks and rhythm section. But Magnapop is most lacking in creativity. The songs sound similar and lack substance, but they are still entertaining.
Overall 7 out of 10.
The Postes Amazing Disgrace (DGC). Amazing Disgrace is occasionally quaint, but quite often

sucks. When the band accepts the limits of its sound, as on Precious Moments, a catchy, pleasant music emerges. When the band tries to go beyond its limits, as on Fight It (If You Want), the weakness of the backing music becomes painfully obvious.
The result is an album that has a strained effect. I wouldn't buy it.
Overall: 3 out of 10.

Jubilee Cafe dishes up respect
Volunteers are needed to help during summer
By Emily Redmond Kansan staff writer
Some KU students do more before 10 a.m. than most do all day.

That's because they volunteer at the Jubilee Cafe, which serves fresh, hot meals to the homeless and makes students aware of the hunger problem.
Amy Turnbull, co-director of the Center for Community Outreach, said the Jubilee Cafe was a positive volunteer experience for students because they could develop relationships with the homeless community members and help make a difference with the local hunger issue.
The cafe serves breakfast from 6 to 10 a.m. every Tuesday in the lower level of the Trinity Episcopal Church, 1011 Vermont St.
The Jubilee Cafe opened in 1994 and relies on fund-raising and contributions. It was established by the Canterbury House, 1116 Louisiana
St. , and is sponsored by the Hilliell Foundation and the Center for Community Outreach, which is a branch of Student Senate.
During the regular school year, cafe guests are seated in a dining area reminiscent of a small cafe.
The Rev. Joseph Alford, chaplain of the Canterbury House, said the cafe was made to look like a regular restaurant so it would give customers a feeling of dignity.
Turnbull said that in the summer the number of volunteers dwindles, so the format of the cafe is transformed into a buffet-style cafeteria.
Patrons are served by volunteers and may select from a breakfast menu that includes eggs, pancakes, cold cereal, coffee and juice.
"We use the old style when there are enough volunteers," Turnbull said. "It just really depends on the number of volunteers, but we prefer to do the sit-down style. We have a consistent number of volunteers, but we always looking for new ones."
A decrease in the number of cafe guests also can lead to the change in serving style.
Neya Koury, a founder of the Jubilee Cafe, said that there are usually less guests in the summer because people aren't looking for a
place to get out of the cold like in the winter months.
Alford said Jubilee Cafe is run primarily by student volunteers.
"This gives volunteers a chance to be one-on-one with a segment of the population they don't know," he said.
Turnbull said the cafe's mission is to provide meals with dignity and integrity.
"We hope that all guests and volunteers feel more empowered through this experience," she said. "We hope that students and guests get much more than a meal."
Anyone interested in volunteering at the Jubilee Cafe should call the Center for Community Outreach at 864-4073.
Local performance revives famous Kansans
Play helps raise money for community museum
By Shannon Sprinkel
Kansan staff writer
The Douglas County Historical Society sponsored a humorous interpretation of two famous Kansans, Alfred "Alf" M. Landon and William Allen White, last Sunday to benefit the Watkins Community Museum of History.
The play,Famous Kansans—The Press and Politics, was Jack B. Wright's interpretation of a 1981 production by Henry Haskel. Wright is a KU professor of theater and film.
The play showed the impact Landon, former Kansas governor, and White, former editor of the Emporia Gazette, had on politics and on the lives of their fellow Kansans.
He was characterized as a fiscal conservative and a moderate Republican.
Landon, played by Loren Pennington, professor of history at Emporia State University, was portrayed as a politician who lived during the pre-Depression and Depression years.
However, his sense of humor was anything but conservative or moderate.
When he lost the 1936 presidential race to Franklin D. Roosevelt by the largest margin in history, he said, "The sunflower never blooms in November."
Landon was an advocate for free speech and free exchange of ideas.
This was one thing he had in common with William Allen White.
White, portrayed by Wright, described himself as an outspoken writer infatuated with Kansas' beauty.
White, for whom the KU School of Journalism was named, talked about everything from the Kansas plains to his friendship with Theodore Roosevelt to his moral stand against the Ku Klux Klan.
White also had a sense of humor.
In his description of President Hoover, White said, "He grumbled where he should have goddamned!"
White said that he lived for adventure and that he was not bored a day in his life.
Pennington said that he chose to portray Lan.
don because he was open to new ideas and stuck to his beliefs.
"Landon practiced that open-mind philosophy and lived everything he talked about," Pennington said.
Wright said he chose to portray White's life because of what he stood for and his love of Kansas.
"I wanted to get into his world because I realized how much he loved this state," Wright said. "He always got to the heart of the matter."
Famous Kansans - The Press and Politics benefited the audience as well as the Watkins Community Museum of History.
"The play was a very special experience," Ginn said. "I came away from it feeling that I had spent an afternoon with William Allen White and Alf Landon."
John Ginn, KU professor of journalism, found the play to be enjoyable.
W. Stitt Robinson, retired KU professor of history and President of the Douglas County Historical Society, said that annual fund-raisers like this raise between $2,000 and $3,000 for the society.
"We had an excellent turnout," Robinson said. "We almost had a full house."
Restaurants thrive despite locations
Food and atmosphere determine success in the restaurant business
By Tracey Cluthe
Kansan staff writer
While a strip mall may not appear to be the ideal spot for an Italian restaurant, Paisano's, 2112 W. 25th St., has proven that pasta served next to hair dressers and liquor stores can work in Lawrence.
"It's just incredible food, and you really get a lot for what you pay for," said Vicky Causey, Tulsa, Okla., graduate student.
Since 1990, the population in Lawrence has grown 9.3 percent, according to the 1995 Kansas Statistical Abstract, published by the Institute for Public Policy and Business Research. With a growing number of families moving to Lawrence, the restaurant business is booming.
"We were interested in coming to Lawrence because it has a really good market," Larry Fangman, co-owner of Paisano's, said.
Paisano's, which opened in February, has been pleased with the response it has received.
Kent Bigham and Fangman, owners of Paisano's restaurant, searched for more than a year before deciding on a location. After searching for a 3000-square-foot space downtown and failing, they opted for the first site available.
Eileen Boyd, general manager of Paisano's, said business has been steady despite the location.
"Location hasn't hurt us. We're very happy with our sales," Boyd said.
Brian Papen, manager of Fifi's, 925 Iowa St., said he feels the same way.
"If we produce good enough food and a nice enough atmosphere, we'll draw people in," Papen said.
Since Fifi's opening in 1978, it has witnessed Lawrence's growth westward. The expansion has increased business at Fifi's.
"Building new hotels and motels in this area brings many more travelers in," Papen said.
with the construction of two new restaurants, Sports Page Brewery, at Clinton Parkway, just west of Kasold, and Pachamama's, 2161 Quail Creek, it appears that restaurant owners are aware of the growth westward.
"It's nice to see trees growing out this way," said Shannon Norwood, manager of Molly McGee's.2429 Iowa St.
Because of the number of restaurants, competition is unavoidable. Some owners and managers think that competition is what keeps a business growing.
Tim Johnson, manager of Old Chicago, 2329 Iowa St., said Paisano's has helped his business and brought people to the area.
"They are leaving the downtown area," he said. "In the long run, I think the competition helps."
Norwood agreed that competition could be beneficial.
"No matter what, the good ones are going to stay busy, and the bad ones aren't going to last." Norwood said. "Our sales are better than last year, and our customers are happier."
Paisano's, as well as many other local restaurants, caters to students with an affordable menu.
Boyd said that Paisano's imme diate plan is to work on the lunchmenu.
"The lunch sales aren't where we'd like them to be. I just don't think many people realize we can have them in and out of here in an hour," Boyd said.
The number of restaurants in Lawrence has given residents several options.
"There are so many new families, and it's nice because you don't have to go to Kansas City anymore to eat," Norwood said.

In the past 10 years, the department of English has increased its reliance on graduate teaching assistants. Many KU departments and other universities have chosen to employ GTAs rather than replace retiring faculty members. This trend has led to a decrease in the number of tenure-track positions available for Ph.D. recipients.
*Total expenditures only include salaries of professors, associate professors, assistant professors and graduate teaching assistants.

She said she did it because she was a teacher, and because she couldn't survive teaching solely at Kansas.
"I love to teach. It's what I truly love to do," she said. "I don't even know what else I could do."
McClendon's office mate, Betty Campbell, also lectures at Kansas and elsewhere, too. In fact, McClendon said she knows a number of lecturers at Kansas that do it. They're not a rare breed.
Some work other jobs outside of academia to make ends meet, such as washing dishes, she said.
All have to have some other means of income, be it working at another school or scrubbing greasy skilllets at a restaurant.
But McClendon, like the other 23 lecturers in the English department, keeps doing it, for now at least.

"I don't know how much longer I can keep it up," she said.
McClendon said that she could get a job outside academia, perhaps as an editor, but she wouldn't be happy.
The life of a traveling educator isn't for everyone though.
Dena Pisciotte/KANSAN
For Hellekson, being a "freeway" faculty member is not on the agenda. She's keeping her options open, not limiting herself to what she went to graduate school for in the first place.
Departments say they are working on the problem, working so people like McClendon can find, as she calls it, "a real job."
--their Ph.D.s.
In a response to market demand, departments are cutting back on the number of applicants accepted into programs.
English cut its numbers from 190 to 120 graduate students this year. History started a downsizing effort three years ago.
But other programs in the humanities are not cutting back on admissions.
"If we were to drop the number, it would affect a number of things," she said.
Ann Cudd, director of graduate studies in philosophy, said the department had a good placement record and was not downsizing, although some have speculated they should.
Things such as the quality of education for the University's students.
Harrington agrees.
"In my mind, the humanities are crucial areas to a good University," he said.
One of the reasons the philosophy department is not cutting back admissions is that it places 85 percent of the graduates in academic positions.
Departments such as English are not so lucky.
"Certainly the market has been a whole hell of a lot better than it is now," Johnson said. "Some who get their doctorate from KU hold onto the old-fashioned belief they will get hired right out of post-doctorate. But less than 10 percent initially get hired."
Although cutting back on the number accepted into the program may eventually help future Ph.D.s, it doesn't do much good for people like McClendon who already have
"Certainly the market has been a whole hell of a lot better than it is now."
Michael Johnson chairman and professor, KU department of English
They entered Ph.D. programs in the humanities with high hopes of becoming professors with tenure. In retrospect, they entered a little naive, she said.
"I won't get a tenure-track job here," McClendon said. "And I don't see getting one elsewhere in the future."
Unlike Hellekson though, she would get her Ph.D. again.
"No matter what I do, I've still got that," she says. "No matter what happens, that's mine."
But it's hard to pay rent with a piece of paper.
That's why people like Hellekson are broadening their job market expectations.
She no longer is willing to continue teaching freshman and sophomores in beginning courses at the University. She isn't willing to be a gypsy faculty member either.
Hellekson has lowered her standards to community colleges and private high schools. Seven years and 70 rejection letters later, the job market is leading her to different dream.

The blackout snarled traffic, forced hospitals and air-traffic controllers to use emergency measures, darkened flashy casinos and shut off air conditioners as temperatures soared into the 100s in some areas.
DENVER — Power and phone service was knocked out yesterday for more than two million customers from Canada to the Southwest after a key power line inexplicably failed on a day of record temperatures.
Utility officials could not immediately explain what caused the disruption, which involved a 4,500 megawatt line supplying electricity from hydroelectric dams in the Pacific Northwest to 2.2 million homes in the south.

An estimated 500,000 customers were affected in northern and central California, said representative Mary Rodrigues of Pacific Gas & Electric. But within an hour, that was down to about 75,000 customers, the utility said.
The high-voltage line, which was out of service for only 30 minutes, was carrying 4,000 megawatts of power at the time of the break. Gruber said. One megawatt is enough to power 1,000 single family homes for a day.
"We're still trying to figure that out," BPA representative Perry Grubber said.

"It it was probably overload, or there was some fault, but it would be anybody's guess what occurred." It could be days before anyone knows for sure. he said
"I would have to say this is big," Donnelly said.
knocked off line by a problem elsewhere.
Only minimal problems were reported in Los Angeles. Customers in parts of the city had 15-minute power outages, said Southern California Edison representative Steve Hansen.
That forced all the power onto the two remaining lines, which couldn't handle the load and shut down, he said.
Edison was able to borrow electricity from the Metropolitan Water District, which diverted power from seven of the giant pumps it uses to push water through the Colorado aqueduct, said MWD representative Bob Muir.
Gary Donnelly, a representative of PacifiCorp in Portland, Ore., said four 500 megawatt coal-fired power plants at Rock Springs, Wyo., also went off-line at about 2:30 p.m. MDT. PacifiCorp provides power to seven Western states.
Joe Marshall of Idaho Power Co. said the outage occurred when one of the three main transmission lines connecting the Pacific Northwest with California failed.
Utilities quickly began restoring service. Boise, Idaho, had its service restored in less than two hours, officials said.
"We do not expect a long outage for these remaining customers," said PG&E representative Tony Leadwell.

A Bonneville Power Administration representative said he didn't yet know whether the high-voltage line caused the blackouts or was
Outages were spotty and some areas were not affected, even within cities that did have blackouts. Customers were without power for only a few minutes in many areas but 90 minutes or more elsewhere.
At Ketchum, Idaho, customers in Atkinson's Market finished up their shopping by the glow of emergency lights.
Most hospitals and emergency services were not affected because they have auxiliary power plants. There were no immediate reports of people trapped in elevators. Some banks locked their doors.

MOSCOW — Russians started voting for president today after a campaign of stunning reversals, backroom deals and a new, last-minute cloud over Boris Yeltsin's health. In 25 hours of balloting, the vast nation faces a stark choice: going forward with painful democratic reforms or turning back to Soviet controls.
Neon lights and slot machines briefly went dark in Reno casinos before their generators kicked in.
Northwest.
The switchboard was burning up," reporter Maxine Carlin said. "It was so widespread that we just said, 'You're not alone.'"
Telephone service also appeared to be affected in some areas.
About 25 people called radio station KVON-AM in Napa, Calif., to ask what was going on.
In Nevada, police in Reno and Sparks reported that so many traffic lights went out of service they ran out of temporary stop signs.

The outage came on a day when utilities were stretched to their limits, with afternoon temperatures ranging from 90 degrees to more than 100.
Salt Lake City had a record high of 102 degrees.
The pumps were turned back on in about an hour, he said. The district is the primary water supplier for the Los Angeles area.
The decisive runoff between Yeltsin and Communist leader Gennady Zyuganov started with the opening of polls in the Far East, nine time zones ahead of Moscow.
The first results from the 93,500 polling stations are expected today. Yeltsin's forces hoped for a large turnout among the country's 108 million eligible voters that would carry him past a solid, loyal bloc of voters
Russian presidential runoff election held today
They see the Soviet past as a time of secure paychecks and superpower status, when they may have been poor but they didn't have to watch the luxury cars of the new rich zoom past them.
His support comes mainly from older Russians who have watched the value of their pensions almost vanish, rural residents, and workers dependent on the government, from miners to farmers to military officers.
Yeltsin, the country's first elected president, has come to personify the continuation of democratic, freemarket reforms that have benefited some Russians but caused pain to millions of others.

from increased economic controls to clampdowns on the press and Western culture.
His support comes mainly from the young, city dwellers, people in business, the intelligentsia, and those who don't want a return to the severe shortages, travel restrictions and harsh repression of communism.
The end of the campaign was shadowed by uncertainty over Yeltsin's health. The 65-year-old president with a history of heart trouble canceled a series of meetings in the last week of the campaign. He looked exhausted, subdued and pale in a taped TV appearance. His spokesman said he had a cold.
Yeltsin remained out of public view on yesterday, a day marked by Communist charges that their campaign ads were not shown by TV. Zyuganov, 52, also tried to make Yeltsin's health an issue in the closing hours of the campaign, but the Yeltsin-dominated media ignored it.
In the last days of the campaign, Zyuganov tried to demonstrate his vigor by inviting reporters to watch
Having roared through nearly five years of rapid change since the breakup of the Soviet Union, Russia has arrived at a crossroads.
Yeltsin has pursued a generally Western-oriented foreign policy. Lyuganov seeks the voluntary restoration of the Soviet Union, and believes the West is fundamentally hostile to Russia's interests.

Football team fumbles in class
The University Daily Kansan is the student newspaper of the University of Kansas. The first copy is paid through the student activity fee. Additional copies of the Kansan are 25 cents.
Few players finish school
By Spencer Duncan
Kansan staff writer
The Kansas football team has begun the Big 12 Conference season last in one area: graduation.
Thirty-one percent of Jayhawk football players who enrolled at the University in the 1989-90 academic year had graduated by last summer, according to a new NCAA report.
"We are concerned about a 31 percent graduation rate," said Bob Frederick, Kansas athletic director. "We hope those numbers improve."
We have some work to do."
Nebraska had the highest graduation percentage in the Big 12 according to the report,leading the conference with a 74 percent graduation rate.
Chancellor Robert Hemenway said, "My belief is that the numbers will improve. These numbers are a kind of wake-up call. The coaches, the athletes and academic support work hard, and they will continue do so."
The Jayhawks also were 23 percent below the national average of 54 percent.
the graduation rate of Jayhawk football players was far below the University's overall 1989 graduation rate, which was 56 percent.
Athletes who transferred to the University after their freshman year were not included in the study. Players who left the University for any reason were considered non-graduates in the study.
The NCAA report focused only on athletes who received sports-related
Frederick made no excuses for the low graduation rate, but he said that many different factors needed to be considered.
One factor, said Frederick, was that some players may have graduated from other schools.
financial aid.
"If a student leaves the University in good standing after being recruited and goes and graduates from Harvard, then he will be considered a non-graduate." he said.
The report also did not take into consideration the difference in degrees offered, Frederick said.
"I am not concerned with the fact of whether a student is an athlete or not. I am concerned that students are having problems graduating," Hemenway said. "KU should be at the top of everything, no matter what. I look forward to our numbers going up."
The next step, according to Freuerick and Hemenway, is for the football program to find ways to improve the graduation rate. The low graduation rate was a disappointment for the University, Hemenway said, and steps will be taken to improve players' ability to graduate.
Kansas does not offer degrees in athletics geared toward the student-athlete. This means that athletes at the University have may have to work harder than athletes at other colleges.

Sen. Sandy Praeger, R-Lawrence, represents the 2nd District in the Kansas Senate. She describes herself and her district as moderate to liberal.

After six years of serving in the Legislature Sandy Praeger has earned a reputation as
By Tom Moore
Kansan staff writer
Sandy Praeger projects an image of sophistication and taste as she strokes the long black fur of the cat sleeping in her lap, its color contrasting with her white tennis shirt bearing the Alvamar Country Club logo. Her laugh breaks from the careful tone of a politician, sounding like the giddy laughter of a school girl.
These days laughter doesn't come easy for Praeger, R-Lawrence, represents the 2nd District in the Kansas Senate. "It's tough to be a moderate Republican right now," says Praeger, whose recent battles have been fought within her own party rather than with Democrats.
She classifies her district as moderate-toliberal, which also describes her.
"I want this party to return to the idea of the 'big tent,' to be more inclusive. Apathy in the moderate wing of the party helped the right take control." Praeger says.
Praeger attended Paola High School and later the University of Kansas, graduating in 1966 with a bachelor's degree in education. She taught school in the Kansas City area for two years while her husband,
Praeger champions issues such as personal freedom. "I'm pro-choice; my stance on abortion will never change," Praeger says. "I also don't support a constitutional amendment banning flag burning. I cannot lead the voters of Lawrence down a path they won't follow."
"I can still vividly remember reading in 1952 when Dwight Eisenhower ran against Adlai Stevenson," Praeger recalls.
Praeger's interest in politics was piqued as a child by reading the newspaper while sitting on her grandmother's law.
Mark, finished his medical degree. Praeger moved with her husband to Denver, where she began to raise their two children, J.D. and Gretchen, and worked as an administrative assistant at Samsonite Corp. In 1977, the couple moved to Lawrence where Praeger's husband set up practice as a general surgeon.
"There was never any question where we'd live," Praeger remembers. "We both love Lawrence very much."
Praeger's love for Lawrence led her to run for city commission in 1985, where she served as mayor from 1986 to 1987 and first felt the sting of criticism from the conservative right.
In 1985, a depressed KU student went to a local gun store, bought a hand gun and went to Holcom Park where she killed herself.
"We had to deal with gun control. I decided it was important to take a stand on the issue," Praeger says. "Perhaps if there had been a three-day waiting period, someone would have intervened. I thought if every city had a local ordinance, then eventually the federal government would be forced to do something."
In 1990, Praeger won a House seat, defeating Democrat Barbara Ballard by 200 votes.
The press identified her as swinging the 3-to-2 vote for the ordinance, which was unpopular with some people in the community. She received threats as a result. "I learned that taking stands, even on the local level, is very hard," Praeger says.
"Barbara and I are friends, and we never took the gloves off in the race," Praeger says.

New state payroll system delays pay for some KU staff
By Andrea Albright
Kansan staff writer
Steve Garrison, Leawood graduate student, was hired as a researcher in the department of special education this spring and was expecting his first paycheck June 14. But after two weeks and two bounced checks, he still hadn't been paid.
Garrison is one of many KU staff members who have been denied prompt payment of their salaries due to a state-mandated change in the University's payroll policy.
In Garrison's case, the payroll office had said the money would be in his account by June 20. The check didn't arrive until June 28. In the interim, Garrison's bank account fell so low that he couldn't afford to pay his bills.
"I bounced two checks to the utility company because the money was not in my account as promised," Garrison said. "I was forced to take out an endowment loan for a percentage of my paycheck."
In January 1996, the state adopted a policy to pay its employees every two weeks instead of monthly. The new system made pay periods consistent for the state's
hourly workers and regulated overtime payments to employees.
Jerry Magnuson, deputy director at the Kansas State House, said the policy change was necessary to comply with the federal Fair Labor Standards Act.
But the Comptroller's Office said the introduction of the new system at the University had not gone smoothly. The office said the University cut staff at the same time the state changed the policy, which increased payroll paperwork. The University also updated its computer system when it switched to the bi-monthly payment program.
"Statewide it was a very smooth implementation for such a large system." he said.
Comptroller Kathe Shinham said the computer system was capable of handling the increased paperwork but was not thoroughly tested because of a tight time frame. It was logical to introduce the new system with the new payment policy, she said.
"It's new technology," Shinham said. "We would have liked to have had more time, but you'd always like to have more time."

Provost search has its cost
By Spencer Duncan
Kansan staff writer
The University of Kansas spent at least $11,000 in its search for a provost and ended up hiring someone who was already employed by the University.
The national search ended two weeks ago when Chancellor Robert Hemenway selected David Shulenburger, who had been KU's vice chancellor of academic affairs since 1993.
Jeffrey Weinberg, associate vice chancellor, released preliminary figures last week which show that the University spent $11,330.72 for advertising, travel expenses, meals and accommodations for provost finalists.
The greatest expense was advertising, which totaled $6,520.45.
Hemenway said the search was essential despite the costs.
candidates then you have to advertise, and most advertising costs are high. It is not something you can avoid."
"You want to get the most qualified person," he said. "The best way to do that is through a national search. If you appoint someone without doing a national search then you never know if you hired the right person."
The most expensive advertisements were placed in the Chronicle of Higher Education, costing the University $3,680.
Weinberg said, "Advertising is always the most expensive. If you want to have good
"That was an expensive place to advertise," said Kathryn Clark, a coordinator of University Relations. "But a lot of the people who we wanted to attract read the Chronicle. It was one of the places we knew it was important to advertise in."
The rest of the expenses were related to visits made by the fye finalists.
Four of the finalists made trips to the University from outside the state for interviews. The University spent $2,064.86 in travel expenses, $607.92 in hotel expenses, and another $2,047.49 in meals, the report said.
The $11,330.72 total does not include other expenses that may have been related to the search. Those figures have yet to be released.
The University could have spent much more, Clark said.
"I have seen searches that cost universities $75,000," she said. "Many universities hire an outside firm to do this, but we didn't which kept our costs low."

Lawrence finds home on Web
Businesses have mixed reaction to city's Internet site
By Stephanie Fite
Kansan staff writer
Travelers on the Information Superhighway can now make stops in Lawrence.
Jonathan Brewer, a KU advertising student, has created Virtual Lawrence Internet Services Inc., www.rock-chalk.com, to showcase the Lawrence community and provides a list of hotels, restaurants, leisure activities and other services.
"Where is Lawrence? It's in your home." Brewer said.
Brewer buys Internet access from Internet Direct Communications and creates Web pages or advertising space for 15 Lawrence businesses ranging from KLZR, 3035 Iowa St., www.lazer.com., to Waxman Candles, 609 Massachusetts St., www.com.waxman. Internet Direct Communications, which provides Internet access to individuals, also sponsors Brewer's Web page.
Brewer charges $25 a month for basic storage, a one-page Web site, and $25 to $45 for network consultation.
The price varies with the complexity of the job, he said.
Virtual Lawrence began on a friend's computer with start-up costs of $15,000, and the business requires only $1,000 a year for Brewer to maintain.
Brewer said he made $25,000 in profit each year.The profit is in multiple Web sites.
Brewer got started when one of his technology professors required students to research the World Wide Web.
When he noticed there was an advertising market on the Web for Lawrence businesses, he went after it.
Reactions from Brewer's clients have been mixed.
Loni Hosking, owner of Waxman Candles, said she received 340 orders by advertising on the Brewer's Web site.
Mike Reed, manager of the KU Bookstore, put the store on the Internet last year when he realized the Internet was an inexpensive alternative to print and television. The KU Bookstore advertises on Brewer's Web site.
This fall, the KU Bookstore will offer an interactive Web page for students to pre-order books and buy merchandise on-line.
Because all credit information sent on-line will be encrypted, there will be no risk to sending credit card numbers through the computer.
With student purchases dropping, Reed characterizes Internet advertisement as positive because KU alumni from around the world are able to access information easily and sales on the Internet for the KU Bookstore have risen.
Chuck Magerl, owner of Free State Brewing Company, 636 Massachusetts St. is skeptical.
"Business is all about interaction," he said. "Since we are about food and sociability, I'm not sure
"Since we are about food and sociability, I'm not sure that concept would fit
on a Web page. "
that concept will fit on a Web page."
Owner, FreeState Brewing Company
Brewer's company isn't the only one to provide Internet advertising to area businesses.
Owner, Free State Brewing Company
Propeller Creative and Lawrence CyberVillage, www.idir.net, are Brewer's competitors in Lawrence. Each site provides a link to other Lawrence Web resources and information on local government, libraries, schools and community organizations.
Lawrence CyberVillage is a nonprofit organization created by the City of Lawrence and the Lawrence Public Library. Like Lawrence On-Line, CyberVillage markets downtown Lawrence businesses.
Although the Internet is becoming easier to navigate, technology is a fast growing business, said Brewer, and advertising on the Internet will continue to grow.
As a result of a misunderstanding with the reporter, comments by Christy Prahl on page 1B of last week's Kansan about the availability of jobs for English Ph.D.'s could have been miscon-trued.
CORRECTION
Ballard, now in the House from the 44th District in Lawrence, speaks with admiration for Praeger.
Praeger: a moderate Republican
Continued from Page 1A.
"She represented our Lawrence community well in the House and still does in the Senate. She's a moderate; she's knows you can't always do a party-line vote." Ballard says.
Praeger was part of a moderate group of Republicans in a Democrat-controlled House.
Praeger said she was one of seven moderate Republicans that formed the influential group.
"The coalition of moderate Republicans and Democrats we formed was based around funding for children's programs and higher education," Praeger says. "We were certainly disliked by some of the ultra-conservatives."
"Fortunately, by that time I had retreated to what the House calls the 'lower chamber' — the Senate," Praeger says.
Moderates remaining in the House after conservatives took over in 1994 have fallen out of favor, Praezer says.
In the Senate, Praeger became Chairwoman of the Public Health and Welfare Committee and initiated reform.
Forrest Swall, former representative from the 45th District from 1992 to 1994, and current Douglas County Democratic Party Chairman, says he and Praeger differ on
health care policy, citing her close connections to the medical community.
"The leadership in the Senate prevented the Legislature from doing anything on health care, and as the chair of the committee on health and welfare, she of course was part of that," Swall recalls.
Yet, Swall adds he has respect for Praeger as a legislator and a person.
While Democrats have come to praise her, conservatives in her own party often are ready to bury her.
John Watkins, 3rd Congressional District Chair for the Republican Party and local conservative, has been a critic of some of Praeger's stances. But not all Republicans share Watkins' opinion.
Resuming sand dredging had been proposed along the Kansas River in Praeger's district. "We are the only state in the Midwest that does not protect at least one of its rivers for recreational use," she says.
State Rep. Tom Sloan, a Republican from the 45th District in Lawrence, says, "She avoids the extremism of all camps and is much more effective because of that. She single-handedly pushed through the Senate the dredging moratorium."
State Rep. Troy Findley, a Democrat from the 46th District in Lawrence, says he was pleased with Praeger's knowledge of the subject. "None of us knew anything about it, and Sandy came in, and now we're going to have an interim study done.
We all put partisan differences aside but Sandy does especially."
Praeger doesn't see anything partisan in issues like abortion.
“It's beyond even a constitutional issue. It is the right of every woman to make that critical decision for herself,” Praeger says. “I oppose a ban. Women would be driven to find other, more dangerous ways to have abortions if we make it illegal.”
The University Daily Kansan (USPS 650-640) is published at the University of Kansas, 119 Stauffer-Flint Hall, Lawrence, Kan. 66045, daily during the regular school year, excluding Saturday, Sunday, holidays and final periods, and Wednesday during the summer session. Periodical postage is paid in Lawrence, Kan. 66044. Annual subscriptions by mail are $90. Student subscriptions are paid through the student activity fee.
One vote she regrets in the last legislative session was in favor of a ban on gay marriage.
"The bill really changed nothing, since the sodomy laws were already pretty clear, but if I could have one vote back it would be my vote on that bill," Praeger says. The bill passed in both houses and was signed by Gov. Bill Graves.
"It was bad legislation and a tough call. If people want to make a commitment to each other, then we should find a way for them to do it contractually," Praeger says.
Thus far, no other Republican candidates have filed in the 2nd District. The only Democrat to announce is Chris O'Brien, a KU graduate student. O'Brien is only holding the position as a placeholder candidate.
Praeger says, "I want to be reelected to the Senate. If Lawrence were to shift more to the right, I suppose I could moderate. But on some issues I won't change my stance."
Paychecks: system causes delay
**Postmaster:** Send address changes to the University Daily Kansan, 119 Stauffer-Flint Hall, Lawrence, Kan. 66045.
Continued from Page 1A
The system has improved since it was introduced, but delays still occur when time cards are filed late or when new employees are hired in the middle of a pay period, Shinham said.
"Right now we have two or three employees per period who aren't getting paid for one reason or another," Michael said.
The department of human development and family life also has experienced payroll delays. Sherry Michael, account specialist, said the department is still waiting for its budget to be established for the new fiscal year. The wait has caused the filing of some staff time sheets to be delayed.
She said she had at the University for 20 years and had never witnessed so many delays in the payroll process.
Bill Shunk, director of the Kansas University Endowment Association's loan program, said his office was aware of the new system's problems because of the increase in loans given to faculty and staff since January.
The association allows faculty and staff to borrow up to 60 percent of their gross pay if a paycheck is late due to errors or late processing.
"Right now the number of loans to faculty and staff probably runs about 50 to 100 people a month," Shunk said.

Students pick KU for quality
Education worth tuition fees paid say out-of-staters
By Dave Breitenstein
Kansan staff writer
Diane Kobrynowicz traveled halfway across the country to pay four times more in tuition than instate KU students.
But it is not something she is bitter about.
"One of the reasons I came to KU was to experience life in a different part of the country," said Kobrynowicz, Denville, N.J. graduate student.
Kobrynowicz is one of more than 8,000 out-of-state students who attend the University.
She said that cost was not a major factor in choosing the University.
"The main reason I chose Kansas was because the psychology department is great," she said. "Even though I pay out-of-state tuition, it is still cheaper than most schools."
Kobrynowicz said she understood why non-resident rates were more expensive than resident rates.
"I think it is fair that in-state tuition rates are lower," she said. "State schools are supported by state taxes, and Kansas residents have been paying taxes for many years."
In Fall 1996, non-resident graduate and law students pay $265 a credit hour for courses numbered up to 499. For courses numbered 500 and above, the rate is $309 a credit hour.
By comparison, in-state graduate and law students pay $63 a credit hour for courses numbered up to 499, and $94 a credit hour for courses numbered 500 and above.
Out-of-state undergraduates pay $265 a credit hour for courses numbered up to 699, and $309 a credit hour for courses numbered 700 and above.
In-state undergraduate students pay $63 a credit hour for courses numbered up to 699, and $94 a credit hour for courses numbered 700 and above.
Matt Friedrichs, Office of Admissions representative, said the University tried to maintain a competitive rate for all students.
versity is that we offer excellent academic programs, and our tuition rate is very competitive," he said. "We offer programs that are ranked very high in the nation, and they don't cost too much."
"One of the top draws of the Uni-
Friedrichs said the University wanted 35 percent of the total student population to be out-of-state students.
In Fall 1995, out-of-staters comprised 32.7 percent of the student body.
Dick Mann, University director of administration, said the University had good reason to make a substantial recruiting effort in other states.
"If we get more out-of-state students than we expected in our enrollment planning, then KU will receive additional revenue because of the growth," he said.
A retention plan is in effect for Regents schools that will allow the University to keep 25 percent of its revenue from all non-resident students above the projected figure.
Tuition for Regents schools normally is put into a common fund for all universities, but any extra revenue from additional out-of-state students now will be used by each university.

Vandalism puts damper on fountain fun
A
The Chi Omega fountain was damaged last week, but has been repaired, and people can enjoy the fountain once again. The fountain has been a frequent target of vandalism in recent years.
By Dave Breitenstein
Kansan staff writer
Stopping at the Chi Omega fountain for a dip has become a weekly routine for Jeff Tschudy and his dogs. But recently the fountain was turned off because of vandalism.
KU police said the top sprayer nozzle and top of the fountain were damaged between June 28 and June 30, Repairs cost $355.
Tschudy, Lawrence senior, and his dogs went elsewhere to get wet during the repairs. He said he was not aware the fountain had been vandalized, but had noticed some changes.
"I haven't noticed anyone actually damaging the fountain, but it has gotten very dirty from people swimming in it," Tschudy said. "There's really nothing that can be done to stop people from damaging it. It's just some idiots destroying things again."
Mike Richardson, director of facilities operations, said vandalism of the fountain was common.
"We repair the fountain because of vandalism about a dozen times each year, but it's usually not to the extreme that it was this time," he said.
Richardson said soap and colored dye also had been poured into the fountain, causing the drain to clog and could have damaged the fountain permanently if it had not been promptly cleaned.
Each cleaning costs about $75 for labor and materials, he said.
"The University ends up paying for all repairs to the fountain since it's on University property," Richardson said.
Gayle Reece, KU police officer, said the recent damage had been the only one incident this year. She said most incidents were not reported to police.
Reece said that in 1994 the top of the fountain was stolen on four separate occasions. In one incident, the grass also was damaged. Each of the incidents occurred at the beginning of summer.
Even though the fountain frequently is vandalized, Reece said it was not illegal to play in the fountain.
"Police rarely tell swimmers to leave the fountain. If they're wearing clothes and not causing any trouble, it's okay for swimmers to be there," she said.
The KU police and the University take vandalism seriously, said Reece.
"If police catch someone damaging the fountain, we will issue a citation, and the person will be called into court," she said. "They will have to pay a fine or restitution. The University will prosecute the guilty person."
Reece said police had apprehended only one or two people who had vandalized the fountain. Anyone with information about damage to the fountain should contact KU police at 864-5572.
Dialogue reveals selection process of mating fireflies
KU researcher discovers insects communicate by flashing lights
By Paul Eakins
Kansan staff writer
Sitting outside on a summer night watching fireflies, one would not realize there are dozens of short conversations taking place among the flashing lights.
These short dialogues between the flying insects are what Marc Branham, Lawrence graduate student and KU researcher, has discovered in his attempts to understand the evolution of bioluminescence.
"I wanted to figure out what kinds of selection forces might be working to create the flash pattern," he said.
Branham's report, titled "Female fireflies prefer rapidly flashing males." appeared in the June 27 issue of Nature magazine.
Branham said he used the Photinus consilium firefly for his study because females of the species stay in the grass, and the males hover in one place. These factors make them easier to study and replicate.
He discovered that females prefer males who flash at a faster rate than the population's average rate.
The more excited the females are, the faster their flash response is, he said. If the females is attracted, she will flash up to 12 times to attract the male. If the female isn't interested in the male, she only will flash once or twice. The females responds to about one-third of the males.
"They seem to be looking at each male in the vicinity," he said. "The females are choosy."
Branham spent three hours a night for a month and a half doing field research.
To test the females' preferences, Branham captured females which he first observed responding normally to males. After taking the females to a lab, he tested their responses to an artificial firefly. Branham controlled the artificial firefly through a computer, and its light was provided by emitting diode (LED).
"The females liked male flashing rates that are faster than you would see in nature," Branham said.
However, the females did not like strobe-light-like patterns emitted by the artificial firefly, he said.
Branham also used his artificial firefly in the field. He placed it in the grass as a female decoy. When the artificial firefly flashed,
"The female liked male flashing rates that are faster than you would see in nature."
Marc Branham KU Researcher
more males responded to faster flashes from the "female."
Despite these findings, Branham said he still does not know why females prefer males with a faster flashing rate.
"I still don't know what the rate indicates," he said.
The rates may be an indication of a more fit male, Branham speculated, possibly showing a good diet or a lack of parasitism in the male.
Branham suspects that the consistent flashing of the males elicits greater excitement within the females' neural networks. This appears to be similar to other animals that respond to patterns, though usually audio rather than visual.
"In other species, such as frogs, crickets and birds, females prefer a faster mating signal," he said. "This shows a commonality in how these animals process information."
Branham's research was coadvised by Michael Greenfield, professor of ontology and biological sciences, and James Ashe, associate professor of entomology and biological sciences. Although they advised Branham in the research process, it was his dedication and hard work that made the project such a success, Ashe said.
"It was his project conceptually," Ashe said. "He was very innovative in both the design and the technical aspects."
Branham will be leaving this month for Columbus, Ohio, to continue his doctoral studies at Ohio State University, one of the few universities with a history of work with beetles.
A British Broadcasting Corporation documentary, Beetlemania, that includes footage of his research will air in Great Britain in October.

OPINION
UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
VIEWPOINT
New University position may improve environment
The recent creation of the environmental specialist position in the Office of Environmental Health and Safety is a welcome addition to the hierarchy of environmental professionals at the University. Typically, environmental progress has been the responsibility of a loosely associated network of committees, departments, and concerned students and faculty. The specialist will help coordinate and combine environmental efforts.
The new position will signal the beginning of a new era of dedication to the environment at the University. Students and faculty have struggled to respond to the looming presence of environmental issues, and the University was sadly mistaken if it believed it could effectively respond to the need of an improved campus environment with no unified leadership. However, the University should be commended for its effort to

alleviate this situation.
The individual will be available to help students and faculty minimize waste, conserve energy and prevent pollution.
In addition to acting as a liaison between campus committees and departments, the specialist will help develop a comprehensive recycling program, traditionally an embarrassing topic for the University, said Mike Russell, head of the Office of Environmental Health and Safety.
Perhaps the emergence of the new position can put an end to the confusion and frustration that have stunted previous efforts to improve the campus environment.

Drivers should reduce speed for road construction workers
Summer is a time of much travel on Kansas highways and roads. Families,including students,will be driving through the state on their vacations. And with increased speed limits in place, people can drive faster than last summer.
Those deaths could have been avoided easily with careful and attentive driving.
The safety of those traveling and working on Kansas highways must be protected.
In Kansas, roads are repaired on a daily basis during the summer. Last year five highway workers were killed in construction-zone accidents, and the number of work zones in Kansas is expected to increase by 50 this summer.
Kansas drivers should

be vigilant during their travels this summer. Observing the speed limit, slowing down in construction zones and simply paying attention to driving will prevent accidents and save lives of both construction workers and motorists.
It is in the best interests of all who travel on the highways to keep accidents to a minimum. So, please, take it slow, respect your fellow motorists and give highway workers the 'brake' they deserve.

America's military mission in the Persian Gulf doesn't have anything to do with making the world a safer place for democracy. It has everything to do with making the world safer for capitalism and the greed to which most of us succumb.

American oil consumption risks lives in Middle East
The images from Saudi Arabia were eerily similar to those of last year's Oklahoma City bombing. Once again, we are searching for reasons for a senseless and cowardly act of violence.
The government's explanation for the presence of about 25,000 American troops in the Persian Gulf is "dual containment." The mission of the United States is to enforce the no-fly zone over southern Iraq, created after the 1991 Gulf War, and to keep in check both Iran's and Iraq's aspirations for regional dominance.
The question that the people of our nation must now answer is whether we wish to continue down this path of destructive and selfish consumption.
In those terms, Americans could be proud to commit material and human resources to a valiant mission and can repress the truth of Pentagon doublespeak: The real reason America lost 19 citizens to terrorism is greed.
Although it would be a gross exaggeration to say that our obsession with driving somehow makes us accomplices in the deaths of our fellow Americans, we must not delude ourselves.
We need to question why U.S. military personnel are stationed in the region.

Hall, he was walking in the opposite direction. He was tall with a mop of brown hair, a person that you would not notice unless you passed him at least three times a week.
Sometimes I think there are hundreds of people on campus that I should know. Last semester, there was this guy I used to see everywhere. Whenever I walked to my 9:30 a.m. English class at Wescoe
Besides, it would violate some understood campus code of anonymity. But if the context changes a bit, you never know what could happen.
Although we never talked, we recognized each other. I think if I were in another town or state and saw this guy I just might say, "Hi." Not that I'm attracted to him; it's the idea of him that intrigues me.
I think everyone has one of these people in their life. Not someone you recognize from one of your classes or somebody from high school, but a random person whose schedule somehow coincides with yours. Someone whose face looks familiar by virtue of the fact that you see him or her almost daily. You recognize the person, and you know the person recognizes you. You have seen almost all of his or her outfits. The guy I always saw had this great pair of worn, brown corduroys of which I am dying to know the origin.
The first week of summer school, I was walking across desolate Wescoe Beach when I saw a familiar figure coming my direction. Being the outgoing soul that I am and glad to see someone I knew even if I couldn't quite remember from where, I automatically blurted out, "Hey." As the figure got closer, I realized that this was the guy with the brown corduroys. I finished the sentence awkwardly with, "You're guy I see all the time." To my surprise he answered "Hey, person I recognize."
You know the color of the person's backpack and what his or her winter coat looks like, but you don't know the person's name.
Have you ever wondered what would happen if you tried to talk to the person? If you're like me and always getting to class seconds before the lecture begins, there's no time to stop and talk. What are you going to say anyway? "Say, I noticed your corduroys."
These consistent sightings make me wonder this person is. What does he or she study? Where is the person from? Is the person as interesting as he or she looks?
Although we still don't know each other's names, I think we both walked away from the conversation knowing that next time we saw each other we would probably say, "hi."
We had broken the language barrier. We didn't talk for long or learn a lot about each other except that we were both taking summer courses. I decided not to broach the corduroy issue.

Hitching posts a sign of the past
Lawrence's rich history reflected in landmarks
By Andrea Albright
Kansan staff writer
Hitching posts throughout town have withstood weather and war to stand as leaning reminders o Lawrence's colorful history.
The posts, dating from the Civil War era to about 1000, were part of the fabric of 19th-century Lawrence history, said Katie Armitage, Lawrence historian.
"Hitching posts went with the era of carriage houses," Armitage said.
Hitching posts were common downtown because merchants had to make it possible for their customers to shop without their horses wandering the streets, said Steve Jansen, director of Watkins Museum
"The hitching post movement was an attempt to control critters from roaming the streets of Lawrence," Jansen said.
David Dary, Lawrence historian, said almost all of the first hitching posts were wooden. Many of the wooden posts deteriorated because of termites and the elements. Others were destroyed in araid in Lawrence.
The Legion organized a digging crew to gather metal from the posts to be melted down for weapons. A military bugler accompanied the crew, sounding a call to arms as each post was removed.
According to Dary, the hitching posts intact today are only a fraction of the posts that were placed on Lawrence streets in the 1800s.
"The variety was fascinating," Dary said. "In the nicer neighborhoods, if the people down the road got a hitching post, you would get one too. It was a way to 'keep up with the Joneses.'"
Old West Lawrence was declared Kansas' first national historic district in 1970, a designation that prohibits owners from altering their homes or yards without the approval of the Lawrence Historic Resources Commission.
This will protect the hitching posts remaining in Old West Lawrence, but according to historians the posts in the Pinckney and Oread neighborhoods will continue to take abuse from careless drivers and changing landscapes.
"The neighborhood society in Old West Lawrence decided to go after this problem," said Dale Nimz, former chairman of the Lawrence Historic Resources Commission.
Nimz said the Oread neighborhood changes so much that posts there are harder to preserve.

Earning a spot on Olympic team was bittersweet for Scott Huffman
By K C Hammons
Kansan sportswriter
Former Kansas pole vaulting star Scott Huffman will represent the United States in the Olympics this summer, earning the third and final spot in the pole vault at the Olympic trials in Atlanta.
Huffman, 32, edged out four others, including former Kansas vaulter Pat Manson, because he had fewer missed vaults.
It will be Huffman's first Olympic contest. Huffman made the trials in '88 and '92 but failed to secure a spot on the team.
"To me, it means I'm a legitimate athlete now," he said. "To accomplish something in track and field, you have to make the Olympics."
Huffman said he went into the trials last month with a negative attitude because of the injuries he has had in the last year.
P
He said his technique is not where it should be, making it his focus in the weeks leading to the Olympics, which start in late July.
In finishing third, Huffman elimi nated Manson, his good friend.
"I just need to focus on my technique," said Huffman, who is training in Lawrence. "I'm about 95 percent right now, and I should be perfect by Julie1st."
Although he said he's excited about earning a spot on the team, the accomplishment was bittersweet.
"I feel bad for Pat. I know he's very frustrated. It was really hard for me to rejoice in earning that spot, since we're such good friends. I had mixed feelings," Huffman said.

Huffman noted that he and Manson

trained together and roomed together teammates at Kansas.
Now Huffman, who once held the American record at 19 feet 7 inches, must prepare himself to compete against the best in the world, including the world record holder, Sergei Bubka, from the Ukraine. Competing for world titles is nothing new for Huffman.
He has won the last three U.S. titles and has been ranked as high as fifth in the world.
PHOTO COURTESY OF UNIVERSITY ARCHIVES
With less than a month to opening ceremonies, Huffman has a full agenda planned.
He will travel to Europe to compete in four different meets and will have only one week before heading to Atlanta with teammates Lawrence Johnson, the current American record holder, and Jeff Hartwig.
Scott Huffman, a 1988 Kansas graduate and former Kansas pole vaulter, will be competing in the Summer Olympics in Atianta as part of the U.S. track and field team.
Kansas hockey club set for new season
By Matt Woodruff Kansan sportswriter
"We had a lot more people trying out than we had room for," Jergenson said.
Hockey is alive and well in the state of Kansas. Just ask Nils Jergenson, president of the Kansas hockey club.
The club started three years ago, but was suspended in its first season for misconduct. Jergenson said members who are no longer part of the club got into trouble for fighting on the ice and allowing the club to go into debt.
Last year the club finished 4-14.
Club members are excited about
the expected turnout for this
year's club.
David Hill, senior center and captain of the club, said the team was expecting only 20 or 30 students to try out last season.
"We ended up having about 50
people," he said. "I expect to see the same turnout this season."
Jergenson said the level of competition ranged from great teams to teams just getting started.
Five players from last year will be returning. Hill said he planned to have a travel roster of 20.
"We'll be playing a lot of Big Eight schools, such as Iowa State, Missouri, and Kansas State," he said. "We'll also play a lot of outside schools. We'll be playing a team from St. Louis, we'll play Colorado State, and we'll be traveling to Kentucky."
Hill said the hockey club is always looking for people willing to help build a strong program.
Although the schedule for next season still is tentative, the club plans to play between 26 and 30 games. The home ice will be at The Rinks in Shawnee.
The club will begin practice in September, and the season runs from October to late April.

State lotteries: the college connection
HOPE grant uses lottery funds to pay Georgia students' tuition
By Kelsey Snow Special to the Kansan
Georgia's high school graduates are going to college free.
Thanks to the HOPE grant, students who graduate from high school with a grade point average 3.0 or higher have their tuition paid. They also receive $100 a term for books as long they maintain a 3.0 GPA.
According to Rick Dent, press secretary for Georgia Governor Zell Miller, students are taking advantage of the grant. More than 90 percent of freshmen at the University of Georgia receive the grant, he said.
Miller created the HOPE, Helping Outstanding Pupils Educationally, grant in 1993 with proceeds from the Georgia Lottery. It was created to reward hard work in the classroom, to relieve families from the financial sacrifice of college tuition, and to keep Georgia's best students in Georgia, Dent said.
He also said that when the grant began, it was available only to those whose family income was less than $66,000. Later that figure changed to $100,000, which applied to about 95 percent of Georgia families. Now there is no income limit to qualify for the grant.
"We weren't really sure what we could do at first, Dent said. "This is the first program of its kind. We've had to tinker a little, to make sure we could afford it."
The Georgia lottery has grossed approximately $1.3 billion. The 1996 budget allocates $165 million to HOPE, the fund now aids about 168,000 students.
Dent said that because Georgia was one of the last states to adopt a lottery, it had learned from the mistakes of others. He attributed the program's success to
the state's commitment to provide services determined before the creation of the lottery. He said that it eliminated politicians' pre-election promises concerning lottery proceeds and money wasted on short-term programs.
"The program is hard to replicate." Dent said. "Most states' lottery proceeds are already tied up in other things. And you can't take money away from somebody to give it to someone else."
In Georgia, for every dollar spent on a lottery ticket, 35 cents goes to the state for education, said Conmelta Gaither, a community specialist with the Georgia Lottery commission. Fifty cents goes to the winning player, 10 cents toward operating costs, and 5 cents pays commissions to retailers who sell lottery tickets.
She said that the state divided the proceeds equally between three programs: the HOPE fund, public prekindergarten classes and the upgrade of technology in public schools.
The most remarkable program is the HOPE fund.
For Oanh Huinh, University of Georgia sophomore, the HOPE fund has allowed her to attend college without accumulating thousands of dollars in student loans.
"Without the grant I would have to get loans. Otherwise I would definitely put a major financial strain on my family," Huhn said.
She said that most of her friends were receiving HOPE assistance, and those who weren't had lost it because of their grades.
"It makes you work harder for your grades," Huin said. "It gives you a
challenge, to work for something."
director of financial aid at the Georgia Institute of Technology, said that many students were not aware of the grant's significance.

"Unfortunately, many students aren't aware of how important the grant is until after their freshman year, he said. "It's their families who are ecstatic about the grant."
About 50 percent of students receiving HOPE grants at the Georgia Institute of Technology are
"I believe it has that kind of impact. It's really made a difference in Georgia," he said.
"Even for students who fall below the 3.0, there is hope. No pun intended," Dent said.
Dent said that students who lose the scholarship still have incentive to work hard.
Students can reapply for the scholarship if they raise their grades, he said.
The HOPE fund also benefits those who do not want to go to a university. Any student who simply graduates from high school can go to a technical institute free, Dent said. There also are provisions for GED recipients.
"In Georgia everyone has the opportunity to develop skills necessary to get a job. Many students are taking the technical school route," Dent said.
Also, students who pursue a teaching career can receive a forgivable loan for up to $3,000 a year. If the student teaches for one year in a Georgia public school, the loan is considered to be repaid, Dent said. Also, the HOPE fund will provide $10,000 to teachers who want to further their education.
Dent said that the scholarship program had influenced many students to stay in Georgia rather than going to an out-of-state school.
"We were being drained of our best. The HOPE fund is hard to pass up," Dent said. "Now our best students are staying home. And eventually they'll get jobs in Georgia."
According to McTier, the state has made it a tougher for future graduates to earn a 3.0 GPA. He said that in the year 2000, the required grade point average will be taken only from core classes, such as math and English.
Dent said that the lottery programs were causing educational standards to rise throughout the state's schools. And the higher standards cause a ripple effect felt in the state's economy and development.
"We're saying to students: Hey, we expect a lot from you." McTier said.
"The HOPE fund is hard for some people to believe," Dent said. "It is an amazing program."

How does the lottery in Kansas compare?
By Gwen Olson
Kansan staff writer
Every day Kansans help the state by spending their money and trying their luck on the Kansas Lottery.
In 1986 Kansas voters approved the establishment of a lottery. It was designed to provide entertainment while supporting the state's Economic Development Initiatives Fund, prison construction and juvenile detention facilities. In its first week, the lottery generated sales of more than $7 million.
In the 1995 fiscal year, the lottery earned more than $50 million to help the state with these programs. But unlike other states, the Kansas lottery is not pouring most of its money into education
The Board of Regents received more than $3 million last year, and education overall in Kansas received $9 million, which is 23 percent of the money earned by the lottery.
By comparison, the Missouri lottery allocated about $132 million to education last year, 32 percent of the money earned by its lottery.
Of each dollar spent on the Kansas lottery, 52 percent is used strictly for lottery prizes while 30 percent is transferred back to the state of Kansas.
The other money is set aside for administrative and retail
costs.
Mike Matson, press secretary for Gov. Mike Graves, said, "The idea and goal is to develop the economy and create new jobs in Kansas."
Many other states have specific programs that benefit from lottery money.
One example is Georgia, which has set up a scholarship program for students going to college.
In this program, some Georgia high school graduates with a grade point average of 3.0 or higher receive a full scholarship to any college in the state and $100 for books each term.
Students continue to receive their scholarships as long as they maintain a GPA of 3.0.
Pam Evans, a representative in the Kansas Lottery's public information department, said that Kansas does not have such a program.
"There is nothing specific like that," Evans said. "We don't decide where the money goes. Once we transfer the funds, it is up to the state legislature where they will go."
The program in Georgia has been very successful with almost 170,000 students receiving scholarships. In the past, similar programs have been proposed in the Kansas Legislature.
State Sen. Jerry Karr, a Democrat, is the senate minority leader. Bob Martin, chief of staff for Karr, said that there have been different proposals during past years to divert the funds for other uses, but that nothing has been approved.
"There is a lot of interest in a program similar to Georgia's, and I am confident that more proposals will be made this term," Martin said.

MUSIC REVIEW
Sponge soaks up influences; Reverend preaches rockabilly
Review by Andrew Dalton
Sponge Wax Eestatic (Columbia). Detroit's modern day glam rockers have one.
upped themselves with their second release, Wax Estatic. The new record shows definite improvement over Sponge's first recording, Rotting Pinata, which featured the two hits Plowed and Molly. The songs on Wax Estatic are tight and Sponge shows a high level of confidence for a band with only one hit album.
day glam rockers have one- uped themselves with this
Much of the disc sounds as if it were made by a band from across the Atlantic.
If I didn't know better, I'd swear that Sponge had joined Elastica and Oasis as part of the new British invasion. Definite Psychedelic Furs and David Bowie influences hover about this recording.
I Am Anastasia, on which former Psychedelic Fur Richard Butler performs the chorus, My Baby Said and The Death of a Drag Queen could all be Butler originals. Wax Ecstatic, the album's first single, is classic British post-punk, complete with walling guitars and fuzzed-over vocals.
Sponge's mixture of British subtleties and their own Detroit roots have enabled them to create a sound al their own. If the band continues with this impressive formula, the next album may be a classic. Overall: 8 (out of a possible 10).
Jawbox Jawbox (Tag Recording). This album reminds me of bad '80s metal. A plodding tempo, heavy, droning guitars without hooks, and poor vocals make up the required mix (minus the leather and locks).
There are only two songs on Jawbox worth listening to. The first, Iodine, is less aggressive than normal. It appears that the band actually tried to write an intelligent track, with mildly successful results.
While listening to this record I kept having horrible flashbacks to the late nights of my youth when bands like Accept scrolled across MTV.
This track's vocals are clean, unlike the pained growls found in most the record.
It would certainly make a better album to hear more songs from Jawbox like this one, and less like the choppy His Only Trade.
The other song worth anything is a hidden track on the record, but it's not even an original, just a cover of Tori Amos' *Cornflake Girl*. Overall 2.
The Reverend Horton Heat It's Martini Time (Interscope). If fast and fun rockabilly is your style of music, then The Reverend Horton Heat is for you.
Even if it's not your style, the Rev may just suck you in
1911 WILLIAM HUNTON MIXT
with his amusing and sometimes raunchy spin on the genre.
The new album from this trio of hard-drinking rockers stays along the same lines as their previous albums. R'is
Martini Time displays the band's ability to mold the core rockabilly sound to their own high-octane style. Where original rockabilly artists crooned, the Reverend nearly screams. Of course the songs still deal primarily with women, liquor and partying, but the Rev delves into other areas such as spoken-word jaws.
with 'That's Showbiz and an accidental trip to a gay cowboy bar with 'Cowboy Love.' Overall 7.

KU production satirizes Shakespeare
By Stephanie Fite
Kansan staff reporter
Shakespeare is coming to *town*.
The Compleat Works of William Shakespeare, directed by Ronald A. Willis, professor of theater and film, and Love's Labor Lost, directed by Paul Meier, associate professor of theater and film, are both part of KU theater's Summer of Shakespeare.
Willis will direct 37 Shakespeare plays and 154 sonnets in a collage-like satire poking fun at Shakespeare's works.
"Our goal is to stay loose, be immediate and with it," Willis said. "There are no barbs, no abuse. It's just clever theater."
Willis characterized the collage comedy as a stimulus to promote adventure, a genre with purity
that the audience must view with an attitude.
Although farce isn't for everyone, David Bergeron, professor of English and Shakespeare expert, said that he thought the humor must be shared by both the actors and by the audience.
Brenda Yugenburg, KU alumna,
and Jennifer Nichols, Topea
senior, will act the 75-character
act in less than two hours.
Willis said people who find Shakespeare sacrosanct will not like this play.
"If the people want to be irreverent of Shakespeare, people have to have a sense of humor about it to enjoy it," he said.
Meier's cast in Love's Labor Lost is larger, with a mix of KU alumni, students and members of the Lawrence community.
Laura Zabel, Manhattan senior,
will play two parts in Love's
Labor Lost: a country wench named Jaquette, and Mariah, one of the French princess' ladies-in-waiting. Like many in the cast who see the performance as an opportunity to expand their Shakespeare knowledge, Zabel also sees it as a good career move.
"It's good experience because working with Shakespeare helps all of your work," Zabel said. "It enables you to learn how to communicate effectively with your body and that is where a majority of the acting jobs are."
Although it was his first major work, Love's Labor Lost is not one of Shakespeare's well-known plays.
"This play has been difficult for me to climb into and to decode," Meier said.
Meier has directed many
shakespeare comedies in the
past few years at the University and chose the play for its difficulty. He recently returned from a sabbatical in England where he studied Shakespearean productions and saw an opportunity to satirize scholasticism.
"It's terrific we're doing it in an academic setting because it shows how the quest for knowledge without humanity is a doomed project," Meier said.
Love's Labor Lost is a romantic comedy that satiizes courtiers of Queen Elizabeth and their extravagant fashions, elaborate manners and highly adorned speech. Meier characterizes it as a critique of pure reason.
"It is an essay on language and the games we play with language," Meier said. "It shows how people hide behind words and an examination of language."

Trading card shops losing business
Photo illustration by Edmee Rodriguez / KANSAN
By Jeff Ruby
Kansan staff writer
Gone are the days when a boy could slap down a quarter and receive a pack of baseball cards, hoping to find his favorite player inside while smacking on a piece of chalky bubble gum.
Today, kids open the $5 packs simply hoping to find the most valuable card. Trading cards have become high-priced, non-nostalgic long-term business investments. Even the gum is gone. In Lawrence, sports card shops have been chewed up by the changes.
Brian Hoffman, a 25-year-old former KU student, is the owner of Sports Dome, a sports collectibles shop at 942 Massachusetts St. He has been in the sports card business for three years.
"A lot of kids aren't in it for the hobby," Hoffman said. "The minute they open their pack, they want to look at the Beckett price
guide to see what the card's worth.
It doesn't even matter who it is."
Two major local competitors recently called it quits. Two weeks ago, The Dugout, a sports collectibles store at the Riverfront Mall, went out of business. J.D.'s Baseball Card and Sports Nostalgia Shop, which once did business at 711 W.23rd St., closed as well.
Sports Dome is the only sports card shop in Lawrence. Although people are still buying baseball, basketball and football cards, Hoffman said, they're simply not buying from local card shops.
"They'll go to Wal-Mart to buy the trash can they need, then they'll buy their 10 packs of cards," Hoffman said. "You know, like, 'Why bother to come downtown?'
Major sports card makers, such as Topps, Upper Deck and Pinnacle aren't helping smaller businesses like his, Hoffman said.
"I can only buy one or two cases, while Wal-Mart can buy 1,000 or
2. 000." Hoffman said
Don Lee, owner of Sports Fan-Attic, the apparel store that shares the building with Sports Dome, said "They're pricing kids out of this business. Mom and Dad aren't going to spend $6 for a pack of cards, and kids don't want the cheaper stuff."
Kurt Iverson, public relations director for Pinnacle Brands Inc., said his company had raised prices because of an increase in demand.
"Customers vote with their dollars and have expressed interest in the best-looking cards, which cost more to print," Iverson said, adding that his company did all it could to help businesses like Hoffman's.
"We release our products three weeks earlier to the hobby shops than we do for the big retail businesses," he said.
Yet Hoffman had to take a job at K-Mart to support his family.
"When I got into this business three years ago, I didn't picture it
taking this kind of path. It only boomed for two years, ending in 1993." he said.
The Major League Baseball strike during the 1994 and 1995 seasons created the down slide of this business, damaged profits and killed the sports card industry, Hoffman said.
Greg Weyrauch, store manager of Ace Collectibles, a sports shop in Oak Park Mall in Overland Park, agreed that the strike hurt business.
"We're still down 75 percent due to the strike," Weyrauck said, "And we get no special treatment from companies like Pinnacle."
Despite the dismal climate in the local sports card trade, Hoffman is optimistic in trying new ways of drumming up business.
"We're putting fliers on car windshields at ballpark and little league games," said Hoffman. "We've got to get kids back into this business if we want to stay afloat."

Senate backs wage increase
Lawmakers say OK to add 90 cents to minimum wage
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The Senate approved a 90-cent increase in the minimum wage yesterday, raising the prospect of bigger paychecks for more than 10 million Americans.
The 74-24 vote to raise the minimum from the current $4.25 an hour to $4.75 initially and to $5.15 by next July was a victory for Democrats who have sought to make it a central election-year issue.
"The invisible Americans who have been left out and left behind were recognized today by the U.S. Senate," said Edward Kennedy, D-Mass, a leading proponent.
The bill was part of a package of tax breaks aimed mainly at business that passed the House by 281-144 in a similar version on May 23. The two chambers still must work out differences in the tax section of the legislation.
Sen. Majority Whip Don Nickles, R-Okla., said he might try to block the House-Senate negotiating conference until Democrats give ground on stalled health care legislation. But Senate Democratic leader Tom Daschle of South Dakota said Republicans would obstruct final passage at their own peril.
President Clinton urged Congress to send him the bill quickly for his signature. "There is no reason that minimum wage workers should have to wait any longer for their
raise. This is not a time to nickel and dime our working families."
Vice President Al Gore made a rare appearance in his capacity as president of the Senate to oversee the final vote and stress its importance. If you are looking for a straw in the wind to see how political fortunes are blowing this year, look no further than this vote, he said.
The Clinton administration has campaigned vigorously for the wage increase and has chided Bob Dole, President Clinton's likely opponent in November, for not speaking out in behalf of it. The minimum wage issue bedeviled Dole's final days as Senate majority leader, with Kennedy and other Democrats blocking movement of other bills because of GOP reluctance to take up the minimum wage.
Dole's campaign, in a statement, said he had made clear his support of a raise in the wage and said Clinton had ignored the issue in his first two years and was now playing maximum politics with minimum wage.
Clinton, while saying the increase was crucial in helping millions of working Americans escape poverty, had promised to veto the bill if it contained an amendment, proposed by Sen. Christopher Bond, R-Mo., to exempt newly hired employees and workers in businesses grossing less than $500,000 a year.
Bond's measure would have allowed employers to wait six months before meeting the minimum wage. It would also have delayed until Jan. 1 the date for raising the wage to $4.75 and until Jan. 1, 1998 for instituting the full $5.15, both six months beyond the House-set dates.
"The invisible Americans who have been left out and left behind were recognized today by the U.S. Senate."
Sen. Edward Kennedy D-Mass
period when teen-agers can be given a "subminum" or "training" wage of $4.25. Bond would double that period and make it apply to all new workers.
His amendment was defeated 52-46, with five Republicans joining all 47 Democrats in opposing it. Sen. James Jeffords, R-Vt., who joined GOP Sens. Ben Nighthorse Campbell of Colorado, Arlen Specter of Pennsylvania, Alfonse D'Amato of New York and Mark Hatfield of Oregon in voting against it, voiced concern that businesses would fire workers after six months to avoid paying the minimum wage.
The Senate also rejected by 52-46 an amendment by Kennedy that would have reduced the training wage time for teen-agers to 30 days and removed House language capping the hourly wage that must be paid to those receiving tips.
Supporters of the bill argued that the minimum wage has not been raised since 1991 and is nearing a 40-year low in purchasing power. They said the $8,800 an individual could earn on the minimum wage is slightly more than half the poverty level income for a family of four.
But Republicans said the raise could force small businesses to make large-scale layoffs of low-income workers, adding to the welfare rolls.
"There's something worse than low wages and that's no wages," said Senate Majority Leader Trent Lott, R-Miss.
Bond accused Democrats of being manipulated by organized labor and said the defeat of his amendment showed him that Democrats don't care about small business in America.
The House bill allows for a 90-day
Immediately after the minimum wage victory, Democrats geared up for another labor fight, over a GOP-backed bill called the "TEAM" act that would make it easier for employers to form groups with workers to discuss such issues as quality control.
Debate began yesterday on the bill, which labor unions and the administration see as an attempt to break the strength of organized labor.
Today the Senate will vote to cut off debate and move toward final action on another highly disputed labor bill, a measure introduced by Rep. Lauch Faircloth, R-N.C., to eliminate the rights of states to require non-union workers covered by collective bargaining agreements to pay their share of the costs of union representation. Democrats say they have the votes to defeat the cloture vote.

Big Bertha heads for Bahamas
The Associated Press
NASSAU, Bahamas — Swirling its 460-mile-wide mass out of the Caribbean, Hurricane Bertha picked up force yesterday and headed for the Bahamas, leaving in its wake rooftops homes, uprooted telephone poles and at least four people dead.
Meteorologists said the storm was expected to curve away from the U.S. mainland into the Atlantic Ocean and probably wouldn't hit the Bahamas directly.
But because of Bertha's tremendous size — 460 miles around — and 115-mph winds, National Weather Service officials in San Juan, Puerto Rico, said Bertha would probably hit the islands with tropical force-force winds and maybe winds of hurricane force.
Jerry Jarrell, deputy director of the U.S. Hurricane Center in Miami, said, "This is a huge storm — it's more like Hugo in '89 or Gilbert in '88."
Bertha's winds increased to 115 mph early yesterday, making it a Category 3 storm capable of extensive damage. Three people died in storm-related accidents in Puerto Rico, and one person died in the Virgin Islands.
Hurricane warnings were in effect yesterday for the Turks and Caicos Islands, eastern Cuba and the southeast and central Bahamas, 250 miles east of Florida. By 6 p.m., CDT.

Bertha was 110 miles north and northwest of the Turks Island and was moving northwest at 17 mph. Bertha brushed by Puerto Rico Monday and passed the Turks and Caicos islands yesterday, teasing them with harmless rain showers and gusty winds.
In Puerto Rico, Coast Guard officers were searching for a crippled boat with as many as 42 people aboard. The boat radioed Monday that it was in the eye of the hurricane and passengers were jumping into the water. Coast Guard officials said there was no sign of the boat yesterday afternoon.
Knight-Ridder Tribune
Hours earlier than expected,
Bertha drenched the southernmost
of the 700 islands in the Bahamas
archipelago yesterday afternoon.
Further south at Great Inagua, a U.S. Coast Guard helicopter regiment based there evacuated on Monday afternoon. The helicopters were flown to Guantanamo Base in Cuba for safety.
Further northwest in the Bahamas, people batted down their homes, nailed plywood over windows, stocked up on food and water and packed clothing to take to hurricane shelters.
Marcia Kemp, a spokeswoman for San Salvador Island's administration, said Club Med's Columbus Isle resort
was evacuating hundreds of guests.
Carter Williams, owner of the island's Riding Rock Inn, said San Salvador's marina, usually filled with luxury, emptied overnight with news of Berta. Williams had not decided whether to evacuate his 30 guests, virtual hostages to the storm because they were scuba divers needing at least another 24 hours to adjust to pressure changes before flying.
In Bertha's wake, residents of northeastern Caribbean islands took stock of the damage: electricity and telephone poles uprooted or hanging, tree trunks blocking roads, power outages and houses with ripped-off roofs.
Yet many islanders were relieved that they did not suffer like they did last year in the worst Atlantic storm season in 60 years.
Anna Petersen, 84, surveyed the mud flooding her St. Thomas apartment and tempered her despair with the memory of Hurricane Marilyn's destruction nine months ago.
"The wind came through and took everything," she said, "but it could have been a lot worse."
Netanyahu talks peace with Clinton
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON - Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told President Clinton yesterday that he will give no ground in Middle East peacemaking unless terrorism is halted and Israel's security is bolstered.
"Those who are on the side of peace must show complete dedication to the fight against terrorism," Netanyahu said. "Anything less will simply not do. Israel is eager to make peace but we cannot do so alone."
Netanyahu made clear he is not ready to meet with Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat. He showed no interest in pursuing the land-for peace maxim that has guided Middle East peacemaking. And he would not commit to withdrawing Israeli troops from Hebron, where 450 Israelis live among 94,000 Arabs.
On another sensitive point, Netanyahu refused to lift restrictions that have prevented thousands of Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza Strip from working in Israel.
On Syria, Netanyahu said he would reopen negotiations only if Damascus stopped supporting terrorists.
For his part, Clinton declared there was no alternative to the peace process, saying, "We need to keep the tide of history going."
Yet, recognizing the sea of change in the Middle East after Netanyahu's May 29 election, Clinton said, "I think we're going to have, necessarily, a period of adjustment, and those of us who care about it need to try to minimize the negative and maximize the positive and get through it as well as possible."
The trip to Washington was Netanyahu's first abroad as prime minister and was viewed as crucial in setting the tone for relations with Clinton.
Peacemaking in the Middle East and in other global hot spots has been a cornerstone of Clinton's foreign policy and a central theme in his re-election campaign. Clinton — as well as Arab leaders — worry that Netanyahu's hard-line views put a cloud over peacemaking efforts.

Moon beam sears scientific world
Jupiter's Io emits ray, says KU prof
Independence Day's alien death rays have nothing on a discovery made in a basement computer lab in Malott Hall.
Thomas Armstrong, professor of physics and astronomy, and graduate students in his department compiled the first concrete evidence of an electron beam originating from one of Jupiter's moons. Io.
strong and his team found long-awaited proof that Jupiter and to worked together to form a giant electric generator. NASA, which commissioned Armstrong's work, is scheduled to release the findings at a news conference of the Committee for Space Research in Birmingham, England today. Armstrong already appeared on Kansas City television Friday to talk about his involvement with Gallieo.
"It's like a huge version of the beams in ID4 they used to destroy the White House," Armstrong said. Io's beam could disintegrate the White House instantly, and it would kill a person in a spacecraft caught in the beam, Armstrong said.
Using data from the spacecraft Galileo, which has been orbiting Jupiter since December 1995, Arm-
Astronomers have known for decades that radio noise from Jupiter tends to be more intense when Io is in a particular position in its orbit, Armstrong said.

"It has been far from obvious why that should be the case until now," he said.

in free space. it's alive electrically," Armstrong said.
Armstrong and his team discovered that Jupiter's immense magnetic field caused atomic breakdown in Io's tumultuous atmosphere. Atoms are boiled down to electrons and nuclei. Electrons have a negative charge, while nuclei, which are made up of neutrons and protons, have a positive charge. This process leaves the moon saturated with charged particles, Armstrong said.
Jupiter's powerful magnetic field focuses lo's electrons into a large beam, much like an earthly power plant pumps electricity through wires. But lo's flow of electrons is wireless and immense, about the diameter of three or four Kansas counties, Armstrong said.
"On Io, current flows everywhere

Evidence of this cosmic beam of electrons came from the raw data sent by Galileo's energetic particle detector. As part of Galileo's 19 separate investigations, the energetic particle detector records the number, size and direction of electronically charged particles bombarding the spacecraft.
Galileo passed through Io's electron beam quickly enough that it was not destroyed, but radiation will completely erode the spacecraft within the next few years, Armstrong said. The craft was exposed to a continuous dose of radiation up to 100 times the lethal level on its close approaches to Jupiter.
Chris Brull, Prairie Village graduate student, wrote the program that converted the volumes of raw data
from Galileo into about 700 pages of
tableless graphs.

Shawn Stone, a Bemidji, Minn., doctoral student, was overseeing the data conversion when Armstrong discovered the decisive graphs.
"he scared the heck out of me, actually," Stone said. "My back was to him. He stamped his foot on the floor, and he was pretty excited. I
can't repeat what he said. But it was something like, 'Now there's proof.' At that time, it all felt worth it."
Stone had canceled a golfing trip to Minneapolis and worked most of a Friday night so that Armstrong would have proof of the beam for a meeting with NASA's energetic particle team in Washington.

Grad student charged with child porn
Kansan staff report
A University of Kansas graduate student was arrested and charged last week with crimes related to distributing child pornography on the Internet.
Christopher Saemisch, 38, from Chesterfield, Mo., was charged Thursday in a federal court in San Jose, Calif., with possession of child pornography, possession of child pornography with the intent to distribute and conspiracy.
The FBI has launched an investigation into a pornography ring involving 15 men that spans the United States, Canada and Europe. Saemisch was arrested by the U.S. Customs Service on charges stemming from his involvement in the ring.
Saemisch was a graduate student in the University's School of Fine Arts and was working toward a master's degree in music therapy.
University Relations said Saemlsch was not enrolled at the University for the Fall 1996 semester.
If convicted on the federal charges, Saemisch could spend at least 10 years in prison and face a $250,000 fine.
KU student resigns post with State Legislature
Republican seen leaving office of Democratic minority whip
By Pete Brumbaugh Kansan staff writer
Looking for the right computer in the wrong place may have cost a student more than a part-time job at the Statehouse in Topeka. It may also jeopardize his bid to win a seat in the State Legislature.
Kansan staff writer
Finney said he had been clearing out some files in the Republican fund-raising committee office when he came upon a disk that he couldn't open on the office's Macintosh computers. He went down the hall to McKechnie's office, looking for an IBM-compatible computer.
Steve Finney, 25, Topeka graduate student and chair of KU College Republicans, resigned his parttime position with the House Republican campaign committee after being seen leaving the office of Minority Whip Ed McKechnie, D-Pittsburg, on June 23.
That's when he ran into Paul Gage, a house aide to Minority Leader Tom Sawyer, D-Wichita. Gage said he asked Finney what he was doing in Democratic offices and Finney explained he was looking for a computer.
"I opened the door, stepped in and noticed that the lights were off," Finney said. "I thought that was strange. So I locked the door and left."
"This looks bad," Gage said.
"Yeah, it probably does," Finney said in response. McKechnie reported nothing missing or tampered with, according to Haver's Capitol Revort.
"Yeah, it probably does." Disney said in response.
Finney resigned his post the following week, denying reports that he had been forced to quit or be fired
"I knew the word was going to spread," he said. "I figured it would blow up into something it wasn't, so I thought it would be easier for everyone involved if I resigned."
Finney said that he had only been working part-time
"I didn't see it as a big deal at the time,and I still can't see what the big deal is."

and figured there were more progressive things he could do with his time.
"I didn't see it as a big deal at the time," he said, "and I still don't see what the big deal is."
Finney is running for the Shawnee County legislative seat now held by State Rep. Nancy Kirk, D-Topeka. He said the Democrats were trying to capitalize on his mistake to aid Kirk, and Statehouse Republicans agree.
Chad Edwards, the legislative assistant to House Speaker Tim Shallenburger, R-Baxter Springs, said he thought the Democrats were using the incident to their advantage.
"They're just using it as political leverage," Edwards said. "It's McKechneh's job as minority whip to help his party win seats, and he's getting as much political mileage out of this issue as possible.
"Obviously, Steve made a mistake, professionally. But I don't think he did it with wrong intentions."
Meanwhile, Finney would like to get over this speed bump and focus on his campaign.
"Crazy things such as this get in the media," he said,
and "it makes for exciting campaigns.
"This may be the biggest year ever in Kansas politics," said Finney, who plans on continuing as chair of the College Republicans. "Dole running for President, (there are) two Senate races, all the seats in the House are up for grabs. It's just a great environment for students to get involved in. I'm glad I'm a part of it."
Firm hired to examine KU's image
By Spencer Duncan Kansan staff writer
The University of Kansas is looking for a little advice on how to prepare for the future.
Chancellor Robert Hemenway hired consulting firm Fleishnan-Hillard, Inc. last month to examine the direction the University must go in the next few years. The firm will determine how the University is viewed by people on campus and across the state and will help the University create a marketing plan as it moves towards the 21st century.
Members of the focus groups said they were asked to describe the University in 10 words or less, come up with a slogan for the University, describe their likes and dislikes about the University and describe the direction they would like the University to move.
Fleishman-Hillard will conduct more than 1,000 phone interviews with Kansans from across the state, Burg said. The intent is to understand how people in all parts of the state perceive the University.
In the past month the firm has held 10 brainstorming sessions, said Mary Burg, assistant to the Chancellor. Representatives of Fleishman-Hillard sat down with undergraduate, graduates, faculty from the Medical Center and law school, deans, staff and alumni.
The focus groups will continue through the end of summer, and then telephone surveys will begin.
"As you plan for the future you need to be aware of the way you are perceived," Hemenway said. "We have to know how we are looked at in order to get our message out."
"We need many different perspective to help us with a vision," Hemenway said. "I think that Fleishman-Hillard can help us with that."
"They meet with the consultant and talk about their visions, the future and what is next for KU," Burg said.
Fleishman-Hillard, Inc. is a national firm with offices in Kansas City, Mo.
Tom Hutton, director of University Relations, said the University did not want to use its own departments for this project.
"It's hard for anyone here to be objective," Hutton said. "We are going to be more sensitive to criticism or even to praise. Fleishman-Hillard has no reason to be biased toward the University, and their findings will be accurate."

Hemenway said the project is being paid for by the Kansas University Alumni Association.

Galileo:
Information from discovery could be of use for future civilizations
Continued from Page 1A.
"We finished pumping data out at 2 in the afternoon, and Armstrong was on the plane at 3 p.m." Stone said.
Armstrong has contributed to several of NASA's unmanned interplanetary missions including Voyager, Ulysses and Cassini, which is scheduled arrive at Saturn in 2004.
Both Brull and Stone said that it was exciting being part of a NASA project.
Armstrong said he didn't think anything would come immediately of the discovery, but it would produce new information for future civilizations.
It's always been my dream to do something with NASA. "Stone said. 'You know, you sit in the classroom, and you study physics, and you learn how to solve problems and what people have done in the past. But when you see real science being done — I can't describe it as anything else but a runner's high. It's why you do what you do."
"We live in the 20th century on the discoveries made in the 19th century," Armstrong said. "When electricity was discovered, it was thought to be this odd thing of little use. There will be applications, but I'm not wise enough to see them. If I were, I could make a tremendous fortune."

Med Center faces lawsuit
The University of Kansas Medical Center has been sued by a former employee for $15 million after he was not given medical attention for 12 hours.
By Gwen Olson Kansan staff writer
William F. Ross, former shift manager for the Med Center, alleged that disability discrimination by the Med Center caused serious damage to his health.
The suit accuses Ross' supervisor, Leon George, and the Med Center of violations of the Americans with Disabilities Act including negligence, age discrimination and retaliation for previous complaints filed and won by Ross.
Ross, a diabetic, was at work on Sept. 18,
1995 when he began to feel ill.
Christopher R. Williams, Ross' attorney, said Ross asked George if he could go home but was told to wait in his office and not to leave. While waiting, Ross slipped into a diabetic coma and was untreated for 12 hours, which
caused serious damage to his already deteriorating health.
Williams said because of the delay of treatment there was serious damage to Ross' thyroid and kidneys and has shortened his life expectancy.
In response to the lawsuit, George has denied most of the allegations. He did admit that he had knowledge of Ross' medical condition.
Ross filed two complaints against the Med Center prior to this incident for discrimination and retaliation charges and was successful in both cases.
George claims that he acted "in good faith towards the plaintiff" and did not discriminate against Ross because of age, medical condition or any other reason.
George challenged Ross' claim for disability status in his answer to the charges and stated that Ross voluntarily chose to retire from his position at the Med Center and did not lose his job because of retaliation.

Children from the Level 1 swimming class walk across the wading pool at the Lawrence Aquatic Center on Monday, imitating their favorite animals. The center, 741 Kentucky St., opened Monday for swimming lessons, and it will open for the general public on Saturday.
Swimming pool opens with 'wave'reviews
Amid backhoes and construction workers, Lawrence children took their first dip in the newly remodeled city pool, 741 Kentucky St., during swimming lessons on Monday.
By Andrea Albright
Kansan staff writer
Parents, children and staff members got a chance to survey the renovations, which include a double water slide, a new pool with six 25-yard lap lanes, an enlarged deck area and a diving well with three diving boards. The city pool has been renamed the Lawrence Aquatic Center and features a zero-depth entry pool, which allows swimmers to walk into the pool on a gradual incline like a beach.
Late opening may discourage season passes
Kathy Fode, Lawrence recreation superintendent, helped staff members guide parents and children through remaining construction areas as they filed in for lessons.
Fode said she was pleased with the new facility.
"The only complaint I've heard is that the water's too cold," she said.
A grand opening celebration will begin at 1:15 p.m. Saturday with Mayor John Nalbandian and former mayor Bob Moody participating in the ceremony. The $2.88-million center was originally scheduled to open May 15, but unusually cold and wet weather caused construction to be delayed by two months.
Some Lawrence residents said the new center was worth the wait, but the shortened season may discourage them from purchasing memberships.
Sally Smith, Lawrence resident, just moved back to the area with her family and has two sons enrolled in swimming lessons.
"With the short season,I'm not sure we'd get much use out of the passes," she said.
Although center employees were excited about the new complex,
some were not as enthusiastic about the two-month delay.
Cheryl Evers, swimming instructor and KU graduate, said she scheduled her vacation to end before May 15, the original opening day. When she returned, additional delays left her unemployed for part of the summer.
"I couldn't get another job because I would have had to quit in two weeks anyway," she said. "Now I'm broke. I'm surprised they didn't lose a lot of employees."
As parents and babyssitters waited for children to finish lessons, they marveled at the bright white decks and clear blue water.
Aidan Loveland, Lawrence High School student and summer nanny, brought four-year old Henry Chapman to the 11:30 a.m. Level I swimming class. She was impressed by the size of the new complex.
Art professor recovering after falling off roof
"The old pool was too small and crowded," Loveland said. "It wasn't much fun."
Henry was glad his class stayed in the wetting pools.
Kansan staff report
A University of Kansas professor's condition was upgraded from serious to fair on Monday.
"I didn't go in the big square one,
just the little round one," he said.
Michael Ott, professor of painting, was putting trim on
the rior of his house July 7 when he fell off the roof and suffered head and neck injuries. He was flown to
Michael Ott
PETER BURNLEY
the University of Kansas Medical Center and underwent emergency surgery to remove a blood clot from his brain.
Ott's son, John, said his father's condition had changed several times throughout the week.
"This has been a tremendous blow," Wright said. "Nobody wants to see anybody suffer from a long-term disability."
"It's really hard to say what his condition is," John Ott said. "It's all really just up in the air at this point."
Bob Wright, professor of painting, said he thought Ott's physical fitness would be an advantage to his recovery.
Ott has been an instructor at the University since 1969 and was teaching a life drawing class this summer."
University hires environmental specialist
By Dave Breltenstein Kansan staff writer
The department of environmental health and safety has hired an environmental specialist to coordinate a campus recycling program.
Victoria Silva recently was hired to begin campus-wide recycling at the University of Kansas. Her duties will include performing environmental impact assessments and assisting in conservation and pollution prevention. She will start on July 22.
"My goal is for KU to develop and implement some strong waste reduction programs and a good
recycling program," Silva said. "We want to make recycling campuswide. It wasn't before," she said.
Silva had worked for the K an s a s Department of Health and Environment

in the Bureau of Waste Management since 1994. She graduated from the University of Colorado with bachelor's degrees in geology, geography
and environmental studies.
"I ended up going into environmental work because I couldn't find a job as a field geologist," she said. Silva said she was excited about the new recycling program and that she already had ideas for it.
"We want to make the program as accessible to everyone as possible. We want it to be truly campus-wide, including students, faculty and staff," she said. "I'll have some input in educating the public about kicking off the program next semester."
Mike Russell, director of environment, health and safety, said that Silva would need to make initial assessments and that the recycling
program would not begin immediately.
"She will first have to assess where we're at, what we have to do and how we can do it," Russell said. "She will have to get a feel of where we're at now before she can formulate a plan for the future."
Russell said Silva was the most qualified candidate and was exactly what the department was looking for.
"Of all the candidates, she had the most full-time experience in the area we were looking for," he said. "She also had many skills she learned while working for the state over the last few years."
"She's done planning and program development and has made connections with the state, which could help get us grant money or additional funding," he said.
Silva will be the contact for all recycling efforts, and she will make all decisions about the program. But Russell said hiring Silva would not ameliorate the recycling situation right away.
"Just having this person around isn't going to solve anything," he said. "We're going to have to decide what we need to focus on and what our options are. Hiring a recycling coordinator is the starting point in getting the program going."
Few females pursuing careers in field of engineering
Enrollment figures at University of Kansas reflect national trend
By Pete Brumbaugh Kansan staff writer
The first day of class during Leslie Cherven's freshman year she walked into her chemical engineering classroom and looked around.
No females.
"Great," she thought. "Is this what I want to do with the rest of my life?"
For most female engineering students, being alone in a classroom full of men is a common experience. It isn't limited to the University of Kansas; the trend is nationwide.
A recent study conducted by USA Today showed a low level of interest
in high-tech fields among college females, revealing that women received only one-seventh of the total computer science and engineering degrees awarded.
Spring enrollment figures for 1996 at the University reflected this national trend. Men outnumbered women in engineering-related fields 1,103 to 223—a 5-to-1 ratio.
Florence Boldridge, director of minority programs for the school of engineering, said, "If you're interested in math or science in high school and you're a girl, then you are often steered toward a career in education or nursing. Too few women are advised to pursue a degree in computers or engineering."
Cherven, a Wichita senior majoring in civil engineering, came to the University in 1992 with a vague idea that she wanted to do something in
"There were no women in my first engineering class," Cherven said. "I felt real uncomfortable at first, like I was a minority. The guys weren't looking at me as a sex object but because I was different."
engineering. She was interested in math and science in high school, and her parents proposed that she pursue an engineering degree.
"If he would've said that to me as a freshman, I would've been devastated." she said. "But I took it as a challenge. I set out to prove him wrong."
Still, being a woman in a male profession hasn't always been easy for Cherven. She said a professor once told her to go home and bake brownies if she couldn't cut it in his class
Her gender isolation was so apparent that she became known as the one girl in that class, Cherven said. While she had doubts about her field, she admitted the experience would not be much different for a male nursing student.
She finished with B in his course.
She mushed with B in his course. Cherven has an internship this summer with the Kansas Department of Transportation, working out of its Garnett office.
"It wasn't what I initially went after in terms of an internship," she said. "But I'm learning a lot about highway construction. It's actually quite interesting."
She works at two sites near Ottawa, where she inspects concrete mixtures and machinery. While the internship is interesting, the gender slurs on the work site are not, she said.
"The guys stare at you or want to know if you're single," Cherven said. "They even had a running bet on who I would go out with or go to bed on. One thing I'm for sure: I'm going
to make it easier on myself by not getting a job like this, working for the state."
At the University, Cherven is helping other fe. ale students by coordinating three programs. One helps recruit female high school students, another helps retain female engineering students and a third helps place seniors through an event called an Evening with Industry, a career fair party at Adams Alumni Center.
She said she was more interested in consulting and the design side of civil engineering than working alongside the construction crews.
"The only advice I would give another woman in this field is finish what you start," Cherven said. "We can help each other along the way by sharing our experiences and avoiding the pitfalls of others."

OPINION
UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
VIEWPOINT
Graduation rate will rise when students reprioritize
The NCAA reported last week that only 31 percent of the football players enrolled at the University of Kansas during the 1989-90 school year had graduated by last summer. Although it's easy to point fingers at the Athletic Department or administration for the low graduation rate, football players aren't the only students who have difficulty competing in the classroom.
Only 57 percent of all students who enrolled at the University during the 1989-90 school year had graduated six years after beginning their college careers, according to the Office of Institutional Research and Planning.
Perhaps football players and other student athletes have trouble balancing athletics and academia. To contend with the problem, Student Support Services in the Athletic Department helps student athletes deal with the pressures of sports and school.
THE ISSUE:
Graduation rate
Students,including student athletes,should take the initiative in completing their college educations.
The graduation rate won't improve unless students make their educations a priority and take advantage of the available resources. Students need to take the initiative and seek the appropriate assistance. The University shouldn't have to coddle them.
KIM BECKA FOR THE EDITORIAL BOARD
The University also offers advising, counseling and tutoring services for all students. Despite the available services too many students at the University are slipping through the cracks.
The department assesses the academic needs of all freshmen and tailors an academic program for each student athlete.
Proposed tuition increase may stem University troubles
The Board of Regents proposal to increase tuition by 4 percent for 1997-98 school year is necessary to provide University students with a quality education.
Tuition accounts for 23 percent of the University's budget.
Denise Musser, communications director for the Board of Regents, said 3.5 percent of the tuition increase accounts only for a corresponding increase in inflation. The additional .5 percent increase is applicable only for one year and will be used to improve technology on campus.
This minimal increase attests to the Regents' commitment to keeping tuition affordable while maintaining its educational standards.
The University's tuition is less expensive than tuition at peer research
THE ISSUE:
Tuition increase
The proposed increase in tuition is minimal and necessary to maintain educational standards at the University.
institutions. In-state tuition last year was $2,182 at the University, compared to $2,558 at the University of Iowa, $2,763 at the University of Colorado and $3,381 at the University of Oregon.
Although the University has a reputation for providing an affordable education, it is plagued by decaying classrooms and an alarming flight of distinguished faculty.
The tuition increase will not solve these problems, but it may prevent them from getting worse.

But hopefully there will be a little person in his life to slow him down and make him smile.
Although he spends most of his time playing, Colin makes plenty of plans. His year is structured around the major holidays. He already knows what he wants for Christmas and his next birthday. He has even asked where I'll be living on Halloween so that he can be sure to drop by.
Children can give students a fresh perspective on life
I babysit everyday, and for a few hours I get to escape my deadline-oriented college life and go to a world where homework is nonexistent, summer seems to last forever and a trip to McDonald's is a 10 on the excitement scale. The only objective is to have fun.
Even if you have a 10-page paper due the next day, there's no way to avoid relaxing. Children make you walk slower because their legs are shorter. They help you think differently about things.
deadlines loom ominously, taking a lazy stroll home from the elementary school with Colin is practically therapeutic. After a snack of cheese and crackers, we spend a few hours riding bikes, playing with Matchbox cars or drawing pictures.
Of course, Colin will not always be 8 years old. Eventually, he too will become a college student and lose the carefree happiness particular to childhood.
Unlike most 20-something college students, children have little angst. They don't worry about what they'll do with their lives. If anything goes wrong, cookies and Band-Aids make it all better. They're just happy people.
Many of us spend so much time going to classes, working or studying, that it's easy to forget life exists beyond our daily regimes. If you're looking for a way to expand your horizons, I suggest spending time with a child.

summer. Out of nowhere he said,
"Rachel, you're lucky." When I asked why, he answered,
"Because you live so close to the park," as if it were obvious.
The other day, I took 8-year-old Colin, the child I babysit, to see the place I'm subleaving this
If you spend enough time with children, that positive outlook is contagious.
The place I'm living this summer is a temporary dwelling, not a home. The front room is void of furnishings, and the living room has two chairs and a worn couch. From my perspective, it's just a place to live. My parents think it's a dump. From Colin's perspective, it is a palace because of all the open space.

Bigotry has no place in balanced reporting
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
When reporters at the University Daily Kansan cover stories related to lesbigay issues, they are told to seek out dissenting opinions for balance. This practice is considered good journalism. Apparently someone believes it makes for better reading.
That's why in the recent article on gay marriage (July 3) reasoned statements of the lesbish people interviewed were balanced by the inclusion of a few personal bigoted opinions. This editorial position of the Kansan is inappropriate and foolish. Do opinions really balance factual observations? In any of the countless inane articles which run every semester on the joys and
thrills of heterosexual dating, do you seek out some cynical queer to opine that they were sickened by the constant sight of straight people flagrantly pushing their lifestyle on them? Of course not.
If the Kansan were so interested in balance, it would have asked for an opinion of the incredibly moderate Sandy Praeger's untimely regret for supporting the anti-gay marriage bill in the Kansas Senate (July 10). Now she says it's the one vote she wishes she could change. Had you asked one of the lesbigay people targeted by that hate legislation, we might have been able to add, in the name of balance, that she expressed a similar regret for having voted against adding sexual orientation to the Lawrence Human Relations ordinance in 1987.
What does it mean to have a senator who votes against you and then compassionately regrets her votes? What does it mean to have to be constantly confronted with slanderous and uninformed personal opinions in the guise of balanced reporting? Opinions belong on the opinion page, but in the Kansan they are liable to pop up just about anywhere, all in the name of good journalism.
Please stop veiling your petty bigotry in the name of journalistic integrity. It just doesn't wash.

Lesbigay voters should support the president for re-election
I'm disappointed that Bill Clinton has come out against same-sex marriages. I believe that legal marriage should be a fundamental right, regardless of sexual orientation. As long as our nation gives economic and legal benefits to civil marriages, denying those same benefits to same-sex couples who choose to marry is discrimination.
STAFF COLUMNIST
However, I am disturbed by the awalows of many lesbigay people abandoning Clinton in the 1996 presidential election as I am by Clinton's support of the Defense of Marriage Act. As a lesbian, I will vote again for Bill Clinton.
CHRISTINE ROBINSON
There is no question that Clinton has alienated many lesbigay voters, but he still has done more than any president to advance civil rights for lesbigay people. Abandoning Clinton could undermine progress toward greater equality beyond the next four years.
Clinton's attempt to ban discrimination in the military was limited by members of Congress. The "don't ask, don't tell" compromise was not his idea; he wanted to lift the military ban entirely. Since then, he has opened doors long closed in government to lesbigay people.
Clinton banned discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation in the federal bureaucracy outside the military. He ended the practice of denying lesbigay people security clearances, and he supports the Employment Non-Discrimination Act. This bill, which would ban job discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation in the public sector, awaits congressional action. Clinton also has appointed more than a dozen lesbigay people to high-level posts, including Roberta Achtenberg, assistant secretary in the Department of Housing and Urban Development, an assistant secretary in the Department of Commerce.
Congressional opposition to broader civil rights for all people, regardless of sexual orientation, has increased since Republicans assumed the majority in Congress in 1994. Clinton has said he would continue to press for expanded civil rights for lesbigay people, particularly for the Employment Non-Discrimination Act.
Lesbigay people need Bill Clinton in the White House in 1996 if they hope to progress legislatively and judicially. Remember, Clinton appointed Ruth Bader Ginsberg and Stephen Breyer to the Supreme Court, both of whom helped declare the antlesbigay Colorado law unconstitutional. It's important that Clinton, and not Bob Dole, appoint justices to the Supreme Court.
I hope that lesbigay people and our straight allies will support Clinton in the next election because he needs our vote, and we ultimately will fare better.

KU finishes study on aquifer
Findings expose water concerns
By Andrea Albright Kansan staff writer
An eight-year study of the Dakota aquifer, conducted by the Kansas Geological Survey was finished on June 30. Allen Macfarlane, assistant scientist who completed the survey, will publish the findings and recommendations to water conservation agencies by July 1997.
Macfarlane said the purpose of the investigation was to be able to deliver an assessment to water agencies as to whether or not the Dakota aquifer will ever replace the Ogallala aquifer as the dominant source of water in western Kansas.
"It probably will not", he said.
An aquifer is an underground layer of earth, gravel, or porous stone that yields water. Groundwater systems, including aquifers, supply water to wells and springs that can be used for domestic and agricultural use.
Since the late 1960s, groundwater systems have been the predominant
source of water in western Kansas. The Ogallala aquifer, located just under the ground surface in the western one-third of Kansas, has been extensively developed for farm irrigation. In some regions, the Ogallala has been depleted to 75 percent of its original saturation level. Developers are looking at the Dakota aquifer as a supplement or replacement for the Ogallala as its resources become scarce.
The Dakota covers 40,000 square miles under Kansas and is present in 59 out of 105 counties. The Dakota extends from Canada down to Oklahoma.
However, the study showed that the Dakota is only 30 percent sandstone. The remaining 70 percent is shale and other impermeable rock, making those areas poor sources of water.
"It's on the order of teaspoonfuls per square mile, essentially an insignificant amount of water," Macfarlane said.
The Dakota aquifer is highly variable; the water content of the rock is not consistent. In the 1980s, planners and developers had very little information to develop policies to control groundwater usage that were appropriate to specific situations.
Until this study, the aquifer had been mapped, but was not understood.
"You could drill a well here and get thousands of gallons of water a minute and you could drill a well a hundred feet away and get nothing," Macfarlane said. "It's very much like looking for oil."
In areas where there has been marked depletion in the Dakota, the fresh water has been removed, no longer filtering out minerals and salt in the aquifer. The study shows that a vast amount of the Dakota cannot be used without advanced treatment technology to remove salt and minerals that are produced by underlying salt beds.
"If you take the head off of the deeper aquifers, you allow the poorer quality water to come back to the surface," Macfarlane said. "It reduces the quality of the aquifer for irrigation."
Studies by the U.S. Geological Survey suggest that the more mineralized water of the Dakota could be mixed with or substituted for the Ogallala water for many industrial uses, conserving the fresh water for domestic and agricultural use.
Ray Pierotti, associate director of
environmental studies, said water shortages in western Kansas had changed the face of western Kansas, and the depth of the Dakota makes pumping the water cost prohibitive.
"You've got huge areas of devastated landscape that can't be cultivated because the ground water is gone," Pierotti said.
Jerry Hargadine, Kansas water resources planner, said the Dakota could be used in some areas where the Ogallala has been depleted, but in many areas the Dakota is too far underground to make the pumping cost reasonable.
"It'll supplement in the fringe areas where the Ogallala and the Dakota are near each other," Hargadine said. "But in the north and northwest, you can't use an ordinary pump. It's more like drilling for oil."
Macfarlane's study will be used by the five water management districts of Kansas to control water development in on the Dakota and Ogallala aquifers.
The Division of Water Resources is using the information to establish policies to restrict groundwater usage, and regulate well placement on the Dakota to avoid depletion like that of the Ogallala.

Jack Hofman finds artifacts at ancient site
By Mallorre Dill
Kansan staff writer.
Jack Hofman has a strong sense of the Paleoindians, hunter-gatherers who lived on the North American plains 9,000 to 12,000 years ago. He sometimes talks about them in present tense.
"The thing that really sparks my interest is how they navigate. They know rivers and key landmarks. How do they use their large area of land?" Hofman said.
Hofman, assistant professor of anthropology, returned June 30 from an archaeological field school in Buffalo, Okla. He and 36 professors, students and archaeologists excavated a PaleoIndian campsite. Researchers at the site found a 10,000-year-old stone spear point. But finding ancient artifacts is only part of the thrill for Hofman.
"A common perception is that what you find is the most important thing about archaeology," Hofman said. "It's really digging in the dirt in the hot sun; it's a means to an end. What's really exciting is how these things come together, the pattern of many artifacts over time. That's exciting."
Hofman can look at a group of artifacts like stone tools, bison jaw bones and campfire remains, and with enough of these artifacts from different locations, he can deduce the wide-ranging pattern of the PaleoIndians. They traveled extensively without the use of horses.
Hofman started working in archaeology when he was in junior high. He
began teaching while in a doctoral program at the University of Tennessee. His students' questions made him reassess his knowledge of archaeology.
"It's like a continual defining of ignorance and minimizing it," he said.
In fact, Hofman came to the University of Kansas in 1991 specifically for the students. He was looking for a place where he could involve students in Paleolindian research while allowing them to earn credit.
That arrangement not only brought Hofman to students, it brought students to Hofman.
"I guess Jack Hofman is pretty much the reason I came to KU," said India Hesse, New Orleans doctoral student, who is interested specifically in PaleoIndians.
Unlike some archaeologists, Hoffman values amateur collections as part of the archaeological record.
"My philosophy is we have to deal
with archaeology as we encounter it," he said.
He also said he believed farmers and ranchers were often assets because of their intimate knowledge of their own land.
One of those ranchers is Leland Waugh, owner of the land in Oklahoma where Hofman and his students found the prehistoric spear point. Hofman compares the creativity and resourcefulness of people such as Waugh to the survival skills of the PaleoIndians.
"They had to be very creative to survive," he said. "A lot of farmers and ranchers don't survive today. Those who do have to be very creative. It's the same with PaleoIndians. They were just people dealing with similar problems."
Hofman left July 6 on a month-long trip to the Paris Basin in France, 30 miles north of Paris, where he is comparing PaleoIndians to the ancient hunter-gatherers of Europe.
KU geologists study how polluted water flows
Team uses sensors to plot path of water through Kansas rock
By Tom Moore Kansan staff writer
The electric hum of a large water pump drones next to a hail-damaged, 30-year-old camper. Dust from a nearby country road blows through the corn field a few feet away.
This spot, six miles northeast of Lawrence, has been a second home for James Butler, Geoffrey Bohling and Carl McElwee of the Kansas Geological Survey for seven years. The KU scientists are dedicated to understanding how contaminated groundwater moves.
In May, the National Science Foundation awarded the team a $50,000 grant to research the use of medical sensors that would create a "CAT-scan" of rocks underground. The picture would help the team better understand how fast polluted fluids move underground.
At the research site, the team has dug about 60 wells 35 feet to 70 feet deep
and will install fiber-optic sensors inside the wells. The scientists want to reach the layers of thin permeable rock just beneath the thick clay of the Kansas River valley. Butler said it was a unique site that is probably one of only six in the world.
"We're interested in getting some idea of how transmissive or permeable the formations are because ground water flows through permeable rocks just as heat or electricity flows through a pot on the stove." Butler said.
The new technique is more effective because up to 18 fiber-optic sensors can be placed in a well. The older techniques required pressure sensors as large as cigars, allowing only one for each well.
Traditional techniques are not able to find some zones of high permeability because they often are very thin. "Our research is directed at finding these thin zones," Butler said.
"These fiber-optic sensors have been around for about six to eight years, primarily for use in medical applications. They are used to test the pressure in your knee, or sometimes they are used before brain surgery. This is the first use of these in groundwater studies," Butler
David Graham, associate professor of civil and environmental engineering, said, "this technology makes a lot of sense. I trust it does provide a better picture. Essentially what they're getting is a very good camera."
"Society wants us, as scientists, to be able to say whether or not site 'x' poses a threat to the public. Right now, frankly, it's very difficult to do that with much reliability. If we don't know that these thin zones exist, we may say it's going to take 50 years for that contaminant to go from here to there. But if you've got this thin zone, it may get there in one year," Butler said.
The project's success could greatly improve efforts to clean up contaminated areas, Bohling said.
Butler said that if the method devised by his team is successful, it could greatly improve scientists' ability to assess risk at polluted sites.
said.
"The main point is: If you have a better idea of where the contamination is — where it's likely to go — you can focus your efforts a lot more," he said. "You waste a lot less money cleaning up water that's not contaminated."
Nationally, the problem of groundwa

ter pollution led to the creation of Superfund, a 15-year-old, $30 billion federal program for waste cleanup and disposal. According to the Environmental Protection Agency, there are 12 Superfund sites in Kansas.
"The problem with cleanup is the cost," Butler said. "In the United States we are spending one heck of a lot of money. Superfund is set up to address this problem, and it's just addressing a portion of it — the worst portion."

Irvin circumvents prison
Judge warns Cowboy star to clean up
The Associated Press
DALLAS — The judge delivered a stern warning to Michael Irvine One misdeed during the next four years and the Dallas Cowboys star could face 20 years in prison.
State District Judge Manny Alvarez sentenced Irvin to four years deferred adjudication, a $10,000 fine and 800 hours of community service yesterday, a day after Irvin's no-contest plea to a felony cocaine possession charge.
Irvin struck the deal with prosecutors as his trial entered its fourth week with testimony from a topless dancer about drug and sex parties involving the wide receiver.
Alvarez said he had heard enough evidence to find Irvin guilty on the cocaine charge and warned of stiff punishment if he gets into further trouble.
"If you come back before me ... I will find you guilty of this offence.
and you're looking at 20 years in the penitentiary," Alvarez told Irvin.
Asked if he understood, Irvin replied, "Yes, sir."
Irvin appeared subdued at the hearing and left carrying his one of his daughters. His wife, Sandi, and his two young daughters were with him in court for the first time during the trial.
Later, at the Cowboys' Valley Ranch headquarters, Irvin apologized to his family and the team's fans.
"There's no getting around it," he said. "I was wrong. I was wrong, I'd like to apologize to my family. I shall work on being a better father. I shall work on being a better husband."
Irvin declined to answer questions from reporters and said he was going to Miami to spend time with his family rather than reporting to the Cowboys' training camp, which begins today in Austin.
The judge ordered Irvin to spend about seven 40-hour weeks performing such chores as picking up roadside trash and serving meals at an AIDS hospice.
"I didn't want this probation viewed as a cakewalk," Alvarez told reporters after the sentencing. "It's not going to be fun for him."
"He needs to get out there and be
treated like any other probationer,
and if that means painting a house
or picking up trash at the zoo or
working at the recycling center ...
then that's where he starts."
Dallas sports talk shows have been jammed with callers complaining that Irvin got off easy because of his stature as a sports star.
But attorney Peter Lesser, former president of the Dallas County Criminal Bar Association, said yesterday that first-time drug offenders rarely get prison time in Dallas.
"He's paid a very high price, and anybody who says he hasn't is a sadist at this point," Lesser said.
Ivin stands to lose $102,647 per game if he is suspended by the NFL, as is anticipated. Also another $1 million he receives annually from appearance fees and endorsements probably will be lost.
One NFL source said yesterday that the most likely suspension is four games, the same penalty that running back Bam Morris received Monday after pleading guilty to felony marijuana possession.
One of Irvin's attorneys, Kevin Clancy, disagreed that his client was treated with leniency.
"You think 800 hours is easy? No. It's going to be difficult," Clancy said. "It's going to be about as
tough as it is to play in the NFL."
If he stays clean during his probation, Irvin's record could eventually be cleared.
the dancers, Angela Beck and Jasmine Nabwangu, were also indicted after the bust. Alfredo Roberts, a former Cowboys tight end, was present that night but not indicted.
His problems began with a March 4 bust at a motel room where police found Irvin, a former teammate and two topless dancers. They also found 10.3 grams of cocaine, more than an ounce of marijuana and drug paraphernalia.
Topless dancer Rachelle Smith, who knew Irvin but was not in the motel room on March 4, testified Friday about frequent sex and drug parties attended by the football player.
Smith is the girlfriend of Johnnie Hernandez, a former Dallas police officer accused of hiring a hit man to kill Irvin, reportedly in retaliation for threatening Smith.
Hernandez's bond was reduced from $250,000 to $20,000 cash by a Dallas judge. No reason for the reduction has been given.
Trial dates have not yet been set for Beck, Nabwangu and Hernandez. Alvarez said yesterday that his gag order on people involved in the cases would remain in effect.
Team nixes nude night, attendants drag
PALM SPRINGS, Calif. — After the Palm Springs Suns baseball team told the fans to keep their clothes on, the next attempt to promote the struggling franchise turned into a real drag.
The Associated Press
With the Suns clothing-optional night canceled because of too much interest, a drag queen promotion called "Priscilla, Queen of the Desert Night" may also be heading for publicity oblivion.
About a week ago, The Suns canceled plans for "Nude Night," in which the team was going to provide a clothing-optional tent for fans. The promotion became the subject of monologues on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno and The Late Show with David Letterman before the organization called it off because too many people wanted to attend.
The independent minor league
team has been struggling to fill seats. Monday's game against the Bandits from Bend, Ore., drew just 473 to the 5,200-seat stadium. Averaging 755 fans per home game this year, the Suns have the worst attendance in the eight-team, independent Western Baseball League
Mayor Will Kleindienst's assessment of "Drag Queen Night" was about as grim as the reviews he gave the dropped nude night.
"They should be promoting baseball, and it seems they have been promoting anything else," he told The Desert Sun newspaper.
Suns public relations director Catherine Masters said she came up with the idea for drag queen night as a benefit fund-raiser.
"Everyone seems to think that (Suns majority owner Don) DiCarlo just wanted to fill the stands with drag queens, not to have a fund-raising opportunity for AIDS," she said.
Masters unveiled the latest promotion Saturday to benefit Desert AIDS Project and other Coachella Valley AIDS organizations. Based on the Australian film *Priscilla*, Queen of the Desert, the Aug. 9 promotion will include a drag queen contest, parade and AIDS education booths.
The proposed drag queen promotion prompted a backlash from the desert's gay community, some annoyed by what they said was a perpetuation of stereotypes about gays and lesbians. Some gay-owned desert businesses withdrew support.
Curt Johnson is the owner of Village Pride Coffeehouse and the Inn of the Three Palms Resort, the main sponsor of the event. He said, "Evidently, there were several people who were upset. They felt it portrayed the community in a light it didn't need to be portrayed."
Masters stressed the plan was to hold a campy benefit, not to exploit the gay lifestyle.
"This is just entertainment," she said. "We didn't want people who were vulgar or distasteful."
Pam Troxler, the AIDS Project event coordinator, said the group hadn't yet explored the proposal.
"We're interested in anything that would provide that support. But we need to decide on the merits and how it would work," she said.
Masters said the Suns also are examining ways to share some of the proceeds with the Palm Springs-based AIDS Assistance Program.
Herb Lazenby, director of the AIDS Assistance Program, said, "We've reached no decision. I'd like to see something more than a drag queen night. ... Our organization has taken no official policy for or against it, but obviously we need the money."
High-tech tests to dupe doping
Olympic lab uses $500,000 machines to ensure good, clean competition
The Associated Press
It's the doping control center for the Centennial Games, a lab where scientists will analyze more than 1,800 urine samples for traces of steroids and other banned performance-enhancing substances.
ATLANTA — Just off Interstate 85, about a 20-minute drive from downtown Atlanta, stands a nondescript concrete building where the reputation of Olympic athletes could crumble in shame and scandal.
The lab is equipped with three $500,000 machines called high-resolution mass spectrometers, state-of-the-art technology that officials say can push back the detection window for anabolic steroids by three months or more.
While some believe the new equipment could lead to a flood of positive tests, International Olympic Committee experts say they don't envision a big increase.
There have been 51 positive tests at the Olympics since doping controls were introduced in 1968. Five athletes failed tests at the last summer games in Barcelona.
"In principle we don't expect a high increase in the number of positives," said Professor Jordi Segura, an official with the IOC's doping commission.
Segura said many athletes already were screened before the games in out-of-competition tests carried out by their national and international federations. Others may have been scared away from using drugs by the knowledge that the high resolution machines would be used in Atlanta.
Yet, just days before the opening of the games, doping controversies already have surfaced:
Australian 200-meter runner Dean Capobianco was suspended pending a hearing after testing positive for steroids during a recent meet in Europe. He is contesting the finding and still hopes to compete in Atlanta.
—Italian high jumper Antonella Bevilacqua, who twice tested positive for ephedrine in May, is waiting to find out whether she can
compete in Atlanta. She claims she took the banned stimulant by mistake in an herbal product.
A British Olympic doctor claimed in a BBC television program broadcast yesterday night that 80 percent of all athletes competing in Atlanta have used performance-enhancing drugs. Michael Turner, who sits on the British Olympic Association medical committee, also asserted the new machines in the Atlanta lab were "a waste of time."
The IOC defended its drug-testing system.
"Of course we don't agree with this," Segura said. "The battle against doping is very long and difficult. But I think in the long term we are truly going in the right direction."
the three medalists in each event will be tested, plus a fourth athlete chosen at random. The samples will be divided into 'A' and 'B' containers and taken to the lab for screening.
The spectrometers are designed to detect certain anabolic steroids, such as stanozolol and methadienone. The lab also has 22 standard benchtop drug-testing machines, which can detect steroids and other banned substances such as stimulants, diuretics and betablockers.
If an 'A' sample shows positive, lab officials report the finding to IOC medical commission chairman Prince Alexandre de Merode.
The athlete alone or with a representative is then invited to the lab for testing of the 'B' sample and a hearing. If the positive finding is confirmed, the IOC executive board normally disqualifies the athlete.
A special arbitration court will be in place during the games to hear any disputes arising from positive drug tests.
Despite advances in drug-testing capabilities, there still are no reliable tests for detecting use of human growth hormone or erythropoietin. Both are naturally occurring hormones that can be artificially ingested to boost performance.

Dorian Brew signs 3-year contract
BREW 17
Former Jayhawk receives $310,000 bonus for signing with Dolphins
Paul Kotz/KANSAN
Former Kansas cornerback Dorian Brew has signed a three-year contract to play with the Miami Dolphins. Brew has already begun training with Miami coach Jimmy Johnson.
By Matt Woodruff Kansan sportswriter
Dorian Brew is discovering that what is said about Miami Dolphins head coach Jimmy Johnson's training camps is true: they are nearly lethal.
PAGE 8A
"The two mini-camps have been tough, especially the first one," Brew said.
Despite the hard work, the ex-Kansas cornerback says that Johnson is fair.
"He has been really cool so far," he said.
After his senior year,
Brew entered the
National Football League draft last March and was taken in the third round by the Miami Dolphins.

"I really can't complain," Brew said. "I guess I was hoping to go a little higher."
According to the NFL Player's Association, Brew, who signed a three-year contract yesterday totaling just under $1 million, received a signing bonus of $310,000.
"Dorian is very pleased with his contract, and he is anxious to get started," said Neil Comrick, Brew's attorney, who also represented ex-Kansas player Dana Stubblefield, who now is an all-pro defensive

tackle for the San Francisco 49ers.
"Dorian was taken 18th in the third round and his average per year exceeds that of the 10th and 13th picks," Cornish said.
The team's training camp began Monday at Nova University in Ft. Lauderdale, Fla.
Brew joins a team that is experiencing many changes. Not only did Johnson replace last year's head coach Don Shula, but the Dolphins also have a new defensive coordinator.
George Hill replaces Tom Olivadotti, who was fired after the team's poor defensive showing in the second half of last season.
Several defensive players also have departed, among them pro bowl middle linebacker Bryan Cox and cornerback Troy Vincent.
Despite all the changes, Brew thinks this year's defense will be solid.
"I think the defense will be better than last year, although last year wasn't bad. There's a lot of new talent and a lot of good players coming back," he said.
Brew said that, for now, he is keeping his personal goals simple and
"I'm just trying to get healthy and get ready for the season," he said. "I'm going to take it one day at a time and try and be the best cornerback I can be."
realistic.
By signing Brew to a solid contract, the Dolphins show that they expect
an immediate contribution.
"My senior year, the year we started 7-0 and finished as one of the top 10 teams was great. My entire senior year was my highlight," Brew said.
Vic Adame, Kansas wide receiver coach, thinks that the Dolphins expect Brew to challenge for a starting position.
Brew was a Kansas football player from 1992 to 1995. As a defensive back who excelled as a punt and
kickoff return specialist, Brew had many personal highlights, but the most memorable part of his college career was a team accomplishment.

People in search of past, future and extraterrestrial lives gathered at the Psychic Extravaganza and True Stories from UFO Abductees Conference last weekend in Kansas City.
Hundreds of people attended the conference, which was held at the Kansas City Market Center, 1775 North Universal Avenue in Kansas City, Mo.
"There is a growing interest in the metaphysical," said Kevin Hummer, director of R.J. Promotions. "Lots of things are happening to lead to a rising awareness."
Exhibitors included psychics, clairvoyants and tarot card readers from the six-state region.
In addition to a cover charge on $6 that allowed entry into the conference, each exhibitor charged a fee for services rendered.
"This is an unbelievable value, especially if you want to see a psychic or clairvoyant," Hummer said.
Participants paid exhibitors from $2.50 for a computer interpretation of the client's first name and astrological birth sign to $50 for a one on one meeting with a psychic.Even skeptics were sucked in and paid big bucks in search of the truth.
"I went to a tarot card reader and gave her the question psychically," said Molly Fast, Hutchinson junior. "She gave me a positive answer, which is good, but it could have answered almost any question."
Other metaphysical exhibits featured massage therapists,
aura readers and past lives readers.
Aura readers took pictures of their clients and read the colors that surrounded the individuals. The colors in turn could tell about the physical and emotional states of that person.
Vendor booths featured merchandise for every taste and budget, including crystals, new-age books, jewelry, incense, statues and hand made clothing, among other things. Many vendors featured books that told the truth about alleged government coverups, the secrets of the pentagon and various religious mysteries and miracles, such as angels.
"I've run into very curious things since I've done this," Lockhart said.
Many exhibitors peddled their own inventions and creations.
"My wife dreamed about the Magnetic Crystal Energizer," said Frank Stematz of Crystal Creation. "She told our son about it, he designed a circuit and we built units to put on the market."
The Magnetic Crystal Energizer is a device that utilizes pulsating light to enhance the beauty of natural crystals and to help users meditate. It is only one of the many products that were dreamed up with metaphysical help.
One psychic wrote a computer program about the effects of people's names based on knowledge that was revealed to her metaphysically.
Another conference draw was the True Stories from UFO Abductees. This was the first year the psychic conference and the UFO conference were held together.
Speakers with video presentation
of aliens and slide shows spoke about alien abductions.
One lecturer talked about her abduction by aliens that lead to her subsequent kidnapping by the United States Military, where she claimed she was interrogated and threatened.
Another speaker told audience members about extra terrestrials who transported him to Egypt where they showed him a cruci-

Both believers and non-believers came to the festival combining to form a positive alliance that you just don't see in the movies.

MUSIC REVIEW
Super 8 dwell on city problems; the auteurs splits identity
Review by Andrew Dalton
Super 8, Super 8 (Hollywood Records). The self-titled debut album from the Joes.
Angeles-based band Super 8 successfully mixes funk and pounding hard rock from the schools of Lenny Kravitz and the now defunct Jellyfish. Any fan of Kravitz may actually think lead vocalist Bronx Style Bob is Kravitz. Their styles are certainly similar.
debut album from the Los Angeles band Sweet C
The record is a collection of thumping grooves, pure
rockers and melodic tear jerkers.
The first single, *King of the World*, comes straight out of the Jellyfish mold. It moves along nicely in pure pop
style and then kicks in with funky rhythms. No-nonsense rockers like Pain and Going Nowhere leave little to be desired. Heavens Don't Cry does an excellent job displaying the band's lighter side.
In mixing these styles together, Super 8 still manages to say something important in its songs.
the auctions, After Murder Park (Hut Recordings). After being dormant for a number of years, the auctions are back with a new album, After Murder Park. The layoff seems to have left the band with a bit of an identity problem, because this record seems to have been made at two entirely different times.
Many of the band's messages focus on urban problems. April 19th looks at shootings, and Pills and Going Nowhere are self explanatory. On the whole, the album is consistent in its musings and accomplished in its various musical tendencies. Overall 7 out 10.
The first five songs are upbeat, catchy pop tunes that show the charisma of the auteurs. Land Lovers is a classic guitar-based zinger that features perfect tempo
changes.
It is the second half of the disc that leaves the listener wondering what exactly is going on.
The final seven songs, aside from the presence of vocalist Luke Haines, do not sound like they came from the same band who created the first five tracks.
They sound like they belong on a Broadway soundtrack. Listening to After Murder Park evokes images of Haines running around a stage dressed as the phantom of the opera rather than a wanna-be rock star.
A dramatic element dominates the last songs, and critically flaws the album. Overall 4.
At its worst, Reacharound is nothing more than your average garage band. Who's Tommy Cooper? could have been a great album if the group had used a little more imagination in its songwriting and kept to the
Reacharound, Who's Tommy Cooper? (Trauma Records). At its best, Reacharound is a slick combination of rockabilly and punk, learing toward the punk side.
Only a small number of songs on the album stick to this memorable sound. The tracks Big & Mean and Nearest Bridge take the style to the limits. Both rollick

bring a smile to your face. The first release, Big Chair, slightly departs from rockabilly, but is still a likable song. Imperial, perhaps the band's most adventurous track, is nearly all pop.
Reacharound could pull this off with a possible hit, but they seem to be more comfortable elsewhere. This is in contrast to
this "elsewhere" should have been a rockabilly/punk mix, but the band chose to take the majority of the disc on a boring trip through bunkland. Overall 3.

Walking on campus at night is no big deal for Carolyn Schumm. She said she felt very safe at night because of good lighting and numerous police patrols.
By Dave Breltenstein
Kansan staff writer
Police make night walks safe
Schumm said she usually walked alone when she was going to study or attending a campus activity, and took no extra precautions since she did not worry about a stranger's attack.
"I usually walk a few times each week on campus when it's dark," said Schumm, Lawrence senior.
Students urged to be aware of their night environment
Last weekend, a female KU student was battered by a stranger while walking on campus. Police and the victim have not identified the suspect yet.
"I feel safe because of all the emergency phones and police constantly patrolling," she said.
Keary also said the Department of Public Safety had a security unit responsible for checking academic buildings that patrols campus.
"We never recommend pepper spray because there is always the possibility that it could be used against you. If it somehow falls into the other person's hands, you're in trouble."
Kennedy also said the
Even though Tufty has never seen anything unusual happen on campus, she said she always knew where the nearest emergency telephone was and already knew what she would do if a stranger confronted her.
KU police try to ensure that all students feel safe on campus at night, and they offer several tips for students to follow.
"I would go to the other side of the street and run." Tuffy said.
"I see police patrolling every time I'm out at night," Tufty said. "I feel safe because campus is well-lit and there are always cars going by."
All these safety measures ease the tension of Kristin Tufty, Overland Park senior.
Keary said there were some popular safety devices that he suggested not using.
"Be aware of your surroundings and approaching people. That's something you should do all the time—not just at night," said KU police Sgt. Chris Keary.
"People should walk with someone, walk in a well-lit areas and wear light clothing. "Keary said. "I also recommend noise-making devices. If someone hears it, they will go for help or call police."
Keary placed most of the responsibility for safety on the people walking through campus. Because police cannot see everything, he said, students must act if they fear they could be in danger.
pus are located in yellow boxes. There are 18 emergency telephones outdoors and 30 telephones inside buildings.
"We have officers in cars, on foot and on bicycle," he said. "We do the best we can to get all over campus, but we cannot be everywhere."
Keary said both KU police and Lawrence police extensively patrol campus at night.
"If anyone sees anything suspicious, they should give us a call. The yellow phones are called emergency phones, but people should use them if they see anything suspicious. We'd rather not have people leave to go find a pay phone," he said.
Lisa Paletta, St. Louis, Mo., senior, has had to run a few times. She said she did not feel safe on campus at

"I never walk alone at night. I will usually try to find a guy to walk with, because it is still dangerous to walk with another girl," Paletta said. "It's common knowledge that girls don't walk alone at night."
Paletta said that she sometimes avoided going out at night. She added that if she did not have a car, she probably would not go out late at all.
"I always try to park near the door and in a well-lit area, and I'll always keep my keys in my hand," she said.
Keaton's talents show multiplicity
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Michael Keaton's face is stretched in disbelief. The middle of his forehead creases, and those arching eyebrows merge into what looks like the wings of a bat ready to fly off his head.
"Look, you know what," he says emphatically, leaning forward in his chair. "Here's what no one realizes and I'm amazed. Sometimes ... you hear people make statements in Los Angeles, or what is considered a very sophisticated circle, and you honestly feel just like smackin' 'em."
"How obvious is it that, if not for maybe genetics going another way,
God making a few other decisions
and the universe kinda shifting around a little bit, you don't end up selling auto parts in some small town in Arkansas instead of some allegedly hip, sophisticated, powerful person's place or skd resort? ...
You know what I mean?"
The 44-year-old actor is responding to a common question: How does a big movie star like him come off being such a regular guy?
"It makes me self-conscious talking about this, because it sounds like a thing I'm pushing, and I don't pushing it. it's just me," says Keaton, the youngest of seven children from a working-class family near Pittsburgh. "I'm not saying, 'Oh, what a swell guy我 am.' Hey, by the way, did I tell you how swell I am?"
Keaton isn't here to talk about his personality; he's peddling "Multiplicity," a comedy about a construction foreman named Doug Kinney who has himself cloned three times to make more time for his duties as employee, husband, father and house-fixer-upper.
Portraying four characters who frequently appear on screen together was irresistible for an actor who has a reputation for taking offbeat parts.
His work includes the divergent roles of the hyperactive idea man who turns a morgue into a brothel in the comedy Night Shift, the whacked-out ghost in Beetlejuice, a drug addict in Clean and Sober and, of course, Batman.
To achieve the illusion of different versions of himself interacting, Keaton first performed the part of one character then used a videotape of the performance to time his movements while playing another.
"It's not like saying, 'OK, here's my character, here's another person I'm playing and I know the person in this movie is going to go from A to B to C to D.' I had four guys going from A to B to C to D."
His next movie is Desperate Measures, about a man trying to find a bone marrow donor for his son who's dying of cancer. The only suitable match is a prisoner serving a life sentence for murder, a role played by Keaton.
"There are times that ... boy, I just feel like playing me, something light and easy and fun, and then there are times I need to be someone in a movie that lets me feel like I can say something," he says.

'Rocky' legend lives on in gyms, on video
PHILADELPHIA — Rocky still packs a punch — both at the video store and in his old neighborhood.
A 20th anniversary gift set of the 1976 film — winner of three Academy Awards, including best picture—and its four sequels has spent 11 weeks on Video Business magazine's best-seller list.
In South Philly, echoes of the film about a soft-hearted boxer who gets a title shot can be heard at the Passyunk Avenue gym, where boxers still answer the bell.
The clang, which sounds like clockwork every three minutes, momentarily drowses out the thud of punches delivered to the heavy bag, the thumpetah-thumptahthump of the speed bag and the songs of the local hip-hop station blaring from the boom box.
Amid the posters of the past, the peeling blue paint on the brick walls, the shadow boxing in the ring and the rope skipping stands 38-year-old Jimmy Washington Jr.
As a guy shuffles and swings against an imaginary opponent, Washington razzes him: "You're a man, right?"
"I'm THE man," the other counters.
"Because I'm retired,right?"
Washington, who won 15 and lost five with one draw during his featherweight career, runs the
gym along with his father. The reason is simple, he says, because people looked out for him, he felt he should give something back.
While Washington talks, two former boxers, Billy Scott, 57, and Roger Russell, 48, intently check out the young talent around them, young talent.
Washington has managed to build alife in boxing.
Mention Rocky to them, and you get a lesson.
Russell, who fought Floyd Patterson and George Foreman in his heyday, says the notion of getting a shot at the title out of the blue amounts to celluloid silliness.
"People look at you differently, give you a little more respect. And plus, I think it gives you discipline," he says.
"You have to earn a shot. You just don't get nothing for nothing ... You have be be rated in the Top 10 in order to get a shot at a champ," Russell says.
NUDE ENTERTAINERS
"Some guys go to the gym just to learn how to defend themselves, right? But then it gets so that they like it, and they see how they're learning, then the v want to take it a little further. And that's how I was," Washington says.
For Washington, the gym has been more than a backdrop for a fantasy, or a place for Rocky wannabes to test their mettle against other men.

Foreign firms in Cuba get a legal break
Moratorium to last until February 1
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — President Clinton opened the way yesterday for legal action against foreign firms doing business in Cuba but imposed a six-month moratorium on lawsuits. He could extend the moratorium again in six months.
In a matter of considerable political and diplomatic significance, Clinton decided that Americans who lost property in Cuba at the time of the revolution may sue in U.S. courts foreign firms now utilizing those assets.
But in an apparent attempt to defuse the controversy as an election issue, Clinton held that no lawsuits might be filed before Feb. 1.
Officials said that the issue would be back on Clinton's desk again in mid-January because of the six-month clause,
meaning that he reserves the right at that
time to render meaningless yesterday's
Feb. 1 deadline.
Clinton said in a statement that as a result of his decision, all companies doing business in Cuba are hereby on notice that by trafficking in expropriated property, they face the prospects of lawsuits and significant liability in the United States.
He said that during the six-month suspension period, his administration will work to promote democracy in Cuba.
The legislation has triggered an angry response from American allies who have been insisting that Clinton exercise his waiver authority on grounds that the United States should not American jurisdiction beyond U.S. shores.
Clinton also has faced pressure from Cuban-Americans and conservatives in general to open the way for legal action against the more than 100 foreign firms which have been operating on property taken from Americans more than 35 years ago.
"We have to keep pushing until we get a democratic response in Cuba."
Bill Clinton President
Clinton said the allies must understand that for countries and foreign companies that take advantage of expropriated property, the choice is clear: they can either join efforts to cease profiting from such property and to promote a transition to democracy in Cuba, or they can face the consequences of the law.
Officials said that the inconclusiveness of yesterday's decision could give would-
be investors pause. They will not know until January whether they will be subjected to lawsuits.
Clinton's Republican rival, Bob Dole, prodded him yesterday to enforce the sanctions against Cuba.
"President Clinton has once again taken a firm stand on both sides of an important issue."he said.
Senate Foreign Relations Committee Chairman Jesse Helms accused Clinton of capitulating to Cuban President Fidel Castro.
"President Clinton's continued indecision until the last possible moment demonstrates, once again, that this president is rudderless when it comes to standing up for American principles around the world," Dole said. "Allowing American citizens whose property was illegally stolen by the Castro regime to use American courts to seek justice is the right thing to do."
At issue is the status of 5,911 U.S. properties that were seized by Cuba within the
first two years of the 1959 revolution.
In an interview Monday night with MSNBC, the new cable and Internet news service, Clinton said that he faced problems with European allies if he decides not to waive the provision.
But the president said, "I must do what I think is in the national interest of the United States and what is likely to bring democracy to Cuba. We have to keep pushing until we get a democratic response in Cuba."
"The best way to get change in Cuba is not to clobber your allies," said Sir Leon Brittan, vice president and trade commissioner of the European Union.
But Clinton was under pressure at home not to waive enforcement of the provision. The anti-communist Cuban-American National Foundation said last week that if Clinton waives the provision, it will embolden foreign investors already in Cuba or those contemplating investments there.
Man kills ex-wife in fitness center
Helms said Clinton should enforce the provision because President Fidel Castro is running a fire sale in stolen property.
The Associated Press
ST. LOUIS — Inside the mirrored aerobics studio, 20 people thumped to the beat of the fastpaced music. Outside, a slightly built man was waiting at the front desk for the instructor, with an alimony check and a gun.
Moments after the class ended, police say, Wiley West Jr. shot his ex-wife three or four times and left the petite, blonde instructor to die on the floor. She was pronounced dead at a hospital.
He was in fair but stable condition yesterday, charged with first-degree murder in the shooting of his 32-year-old ex-wife.
West, 45, fled the fitness center and embarked on a 12-hour odyssey that ended when he shot himself in the chest beneath the Gateway Arch, police say.
"She was just a super person, trying to take care of two young children." Slater said.
The couple divorced in March after a seven-year marriage marked by physical abuse, said Mrs. West's lawyer, R.J. Slater. She had obtained an abuse order against him last summer, and he had threatened to kill her, Slater said.
West shot her when she came to the desk, then whirled around and fired a warning shot that struck the mirrored back wall of the aerobics room, club owner John Crocker said."
Ten to 15 people were working out at the time.
A former police officer, West had gone to the Total You health club Monday morning to deliver an alimony check. He wanted a receipt and was told to wait until she finished her 8 a.m. aerobics class, said Robert Lowery Sr., the police chief in suburban Florissant.
Ollie Coffman, a personal trainer, said, "Everybody thought it was a play or something — they
"Everyone thought it was a play or something."
Ollie Coffman witness to shooting
didn't think it was real. They were all just kind of stunned."
West dropped the gun and fled, heading to the rectory of the New Cathedral in St. Louis, where he asked to see a priest. "I think I killed my wife," Lowery quoted him as saying.
The priest called a monsignor, who contacted police.
But West had already moved on, to the Forest Park Community College, where he worked as a part-time security officer. He told co-workers that he needed money and that he had just killed his wife.
West then ditched his car in downtown St. Louis, grabbed a quick meal at a McDonald's, entered a TV station's lobby and was stopped by a guard. He asked for directions to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch building, and walked through the lobby, picking up a job application along the way.
John Easley, a security manager at the paper, said police arrived moments later, carrying his picture. Easley told them they just missed him.
Shortly after 8 p.m., police spotted him 12 blocks away, sitting on the top of the steps leading from the Arch to the riverfront. He pulled out a second gun — a revolver — and shot himself in the chest as officers approached.
Fashion trade a symbol of destitution
Honduran poverty echoed in textile industry's climate
The Associated Press
CHOLOMA, Honduras — The squatter homes of scrap wood and cardboard sprawl across a dusty plot, in view of an industrial park where poor Hondurans make the latest fashions for American consumers.
Guillermo Fernandez, who has two daughters employed at Global Fashion, a plant inside the park, moved into one of the homes in January 1995 with his nine children.
"We live better than in Santa Barbara," he said, referring to the western Honduras town the family used to call home. "Here we at least eat three times a day."
Americans have been hearing allegations of long hours, child workers and abusive treatment at the plants — brewing up a scandal for talk-show host Kathie Lee Gifford, whose clothing line is made by Global Fashion.
Textile industry leaders reject the charges they run sweatshops, and the plants, known as maquiladoras, have defenders who say the allegations are a ploy.
"We are dealing with a war of markets.
backed by the U.S. unions, to have the maquiladoras abandon Honduras and return to the United States," said Sergio Nunez, vice minister of the economy.
A 15-year-old girl's May testimony before a U.S. House subcommittee brought attention to the clothing assembly plants and the U.S. companies that contract with them.
"The treatment at Global Fashion is very bad," Wendy Diaz said at a Washington news conference after testifying in May. "The plant is hot, like an oven. They keep the bathroom locked and you need permission and can only use it twice a day. We are not allowed to talk at work."
Honduran law permits children as young as 14 to work up to 36 hours a week with parental permission. Yet girls as young as 12 were producing clothes, the workday often surpassed 12 hours and the pay was about $22 a week, Diaz said.
The National Labor Committee, the humanrights group that brought Diaz to the United States, said it urged U.S. companies to keep their jobs in Honduras but to strive for better working conditions.
Committee director Charles Kernaghan, who investigated Global Fashion in 1995, charged that a 75-hour work week was common, and that pregnant women sometimes were forced
to work on their feet for 15 hours a day.
Labor Minister Cecilio Zavala called the allegations monstrous. He said the government has been enforcing its laws, including the minimum age for employing youths — 14 years — and the 71-cents-a-day minimum wage.
Apparel-making generates $500 million a year in Honduras, and Global Fashion, with some 600 workers, is one of the larger plants in this industrial park.
Maria Rodriguez, 26, lives in a working-class neighborhood of San Pedro Sula, the country's second-largest city, and said she feels lucky to work at Global Fashion.
"I used to live with my parents in a poor house with a dirt floor and without water," Rodriguez said. "Now I have a small apartment with what I need to need better...furniture, a telephone, a refrigerator."
Yet the poverty evident in Choloma, a suburb of San Pedro Sula, is part of the fabric of Honduras. There is no running water or electricity and nine or 10 people live in shacks just a few square feet. Filthy infants and dogs wander everywhere. Light, when there is any, comes from candles and gas lanterns.
Since the scandal broke, however, hundreds of teen-agents have been fired.
"Many mothers come to the office," said Paul Kim, the president of Global Fashion. "They cry and ask me to employ their daughters, but I don't want more labor problems."
Ukrainian prime minister survives bomb blast
The Associated Press
KIEV, Ukraine — Ukraine's new prime minister survived an assassination attempt yesterday when a bomb planted in a drainpipe exploded near his motorcade.
The blast, the first such attack on a Ukrainian leader in modern history, prompted a string of emergency closed-door meetings and heightened security at government buildings and embassies.
There was no immediate claim of responsibility, but Ukrainian news media and officials speculated it was tied to Lazarenko's interests in Ukraine's gas, alcohol and banking
Prime Minister Pavlo Lazarenko was treated for a minor neck injury, and two guards in an accompanying car suffered minor injuries. No major injuries were reported.
"It's a terrible sign for Ukrainian politics."

industries. He is reported to be one of the former Soviet republic's wealthiest people.
The premier, who was appointed last week, was on his way to Kiev's Borispal Airport yesterday when the bomb exploded almost beneath his car.
Police said the explosive was planted in an underground drainpipe and detonated by radio. An Interior Ministry spokesman said it appeared to be a military bomb, possibly taken from one of Ukraine's poorly guarded defense facilities.
The blast cut a crater about 4-1/2 feet deep and 6 feet wide in the road along the Dnipro River, and hurled chunks of asphalt 300 feet, hitting workers at a nearby factory.
The bomb exploded while Lazarenko's car was swerving to pass a passenger bus, which significantly diminished the impact, investigators said.
The Interior Ministry spokesman said if it had exploded while the car was directly overhead, the car would have been destroyed.
Kuchma ousted Lazarenko's predecessor in May, accusing him of stalling reforms.
Ukraine's government has been in upheaval since President Leonid
Lazarenko, a Soviet-era collective farm boss from Kuchma's hometown of Dnipropetrovsk, was approved as prime minister by Parliament last week.
Miroslav Horbatyuk of the nationalist party Rukh said, "It's a terrible sign for Ukrainian politics."
Lazarenko's office tried to play down the attack.
Ukraine television showed a smiling Lazarenko arriving in the eastern city of Donetsk, where he flew an hour after the attack to help settle a coal miners' strike that has crippled the industry since July 3. The trip was publicized in advance, and his motorcade took the standard route to the airport.

Heart abnormalities a cause of athletes' deaths
The Associated Press
CHICAGO — The scenario is rare but always terrifying. A young athlete, seemingly in top shape, suddenly collapses and dies.
The reasons may be just as frightening: more often than not, symptomless, hard-to-detect and unpreventable heart abnormalities are to blame, according to a new, detailed profile of the victims.
Most had passed routine medical screenings with flying colors, according to a report yesterday in a special Journal of the American Medical Association issue devoted to sports medicine and the Olympics.
Though the problem is rare, it*s always a horror story, said William
Roberts, a co-researcher and director of the Baylor Cardiovascular Institute in Dallas.
Three well-known athletes died unexpectedly of heart disease this decade.
Hank Gathers, a star at Loyola Marymount in Los Angeles, collapsed and died on the court during a game in 1990 after being sidelined for his heart condition.
Olympic figure skating gold medalist Sergei Grinkov died during practice last year at age 28. Grinkov, a Russian, was found to have inherited a genetic condition that caused his death.
Reggie Lewis of the Boston Celtics collapsed on the court during a 1993 playoff game, then collapsed again and died as he was
practicing for a comeback a few months later.
Gary Balady, chairman of the heart association's Committee on Exercise and Cardiac Rehabilitation said the American Heart Association plans to release new screening guidelines for young athletes next month.
The guidelines will recommend detailed screenings of athletes with family histories of heart disease, and researchers suggest that young athletes with serious heart defects abstain from competitive sports.
Among high school competitors only one in about 200,000 athletes succumbs to such sudden deaths, according to researchers led by Barry J. Maron at the Minnesota Heart Institute Foundation.
They looked at 158 sudden deaths nationwide among young competitive athletes between 1985 and 1995, and focused on 134 that were later linked to heart problems.
The researchers found one common factor: nearly all were brought on by intense exercise.
More than 20 different cardiac disorders were implicated in the 134 deaths.
There's no national registry for such deaths, and the researchers said they suspect more occurred during that period.
However, of the 115 athletes studied who had undergone standard screenings, fewer than 5 percent showed symptoms of heart disease and fewer than 1 percent were accurately diagnosed. Only 24 athletes (18 percent) experienced heart-related symptoms such as dizziness or chest pain during the three years preceding their deaths.
VV
Among the heart-related deaths, 90 percent were male; 52 percent were white; 44 percent black and most victims were involved in either basketball or football. Their median age was 17, and 90 percent collapsed during or immediately after engaging in the sport.
The most commonly implicated disorder, found in 36 percent of the cases, was hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, or HCM, a congenital disease involving too-vigorous heart contractions and cardiac muscle enlargement, the cause of Gathers' death.
HCM is so uncommon that most
cardiologists see only one case yearly, Roberts said. While it is symptomless until later in life, victims usually have a close relative with the disease.
The best way to diagnose HCM is through costly echocardiograms, which aren't part of routine presport health screenings. Barbara Deal, a cardiologist at Chicago's Children's Memorial Hospital, said that presents a dilemma for treating young athletes.
It's a tough issue because when people want to compete at a high level they really don't want anything to stand in their way, and many might not report symptoms of heart disease, like chest pain, Dr. Deal said.

University looks at hiring options
Hiring freeze thaws; essential jobs may be filled
By Spencer Duncan Kansan staff writer
The relaxation of a year-long hiring freeze has received mixed reactions from University of Kansas administrators.
that had been in effect since June of 1995. However, the end of the hiring freeze, effective for the 1996-97 fiscal year, has not meant that departments are rushing to fill vacant positions.
Chancellor Robert Hemenway eased the hiring freeze last month
"The freeze last year was a severe restriction," said Peter Thompson, dean of the School of Fine Arts. "I'm not sure yet what this means. We are having some meetings and looking at how all this will fit into our budget."
The lifting of the hiring freeze carries some restrictions.
Hemenway sent a memo to vice chancellors, deans, directors and
department representatives last month announcing the end of the hiring freeze. However, in the memo, Hemenway outlined some restrictions.
"I am asking all vice chancellors, deans and department heads to limit their hiring to three out of four positions that would normally be filled," Hemenway wrote in the memo.
The softening of the freeze applies only to classified, unclassified and faculty positions, Shulenburger said. Hiring individuals for grants and research projects and hiring student employees still is limited.
Hemenway also asked administrators to prioritize their hiring. This means that just because there are jobs that can be filled, it doesn't mean that administrators have to fill them, said Provost David Shu.

For administrators such as James Long, the director of the Kansas Union, a limited hiring plan is better
"We will continue to evaluate the positions based on need, but this does give us some breathing room," Long said.
However, Thompson said he was not sure that a relaxed freeze would mean much to his department.
than not being able to hire at all.
"Our staff has been very lean over the last few years, but we still have a budget to go by." Thompson said. "As far as I can see, we can still have some flexibility in our budget. We will have the same number of classes, but at this point I don't think that we are going to be able to go out and just start hiring people."

Plane explosion concerns some travelers
But people are flying despite deadly accident
The explosion of TWA Flight 800 last Wednesday as well as other plane crashes this summer have made many airline passengers more cautious about flying.
By Dave Breltenstein
Kansan staff writer
"I fly all the time," said Christine Klepfer, Plano, Texas, senior. "Now whenever I feel turbulence, I think about crashing."
She said she usually got nervous before a flight, but with the recent accidents, she has become even more anxious.
Klepper flies five to six times a year to visit friends and family.
Nelson Krueger, TWA pilot and Lawrence resident, said he had flown Flight 800 from New York to Paris many times in his career.
"I sometimes get the shakes during takeoff," she said. "It didn't really bother me before, but now the slightest turbulence will scare me."
"I was devastated when I heard
about the explosion," he said. "I couldn't believe it. My first thoughts were for the families of passengers and crew members. I was very emotionally stunned, but at the same time, I was thankful it wasn't me."
"It was a very good airplane. I flew it about four years ago in the desert in Saudi Arabia. It certainly wasn't a plane with any problems," he said.
Krueger said that he was familiar with the Boeing 747 and that the model was one of the best.
"I know I'll think about the explosion the next time I fly," he said.
"When you've done all you can to prepare for a flight, what else can you do? You just never know."
Krueger said that he had never had a fear of flying and that he had not flown since the accident.
Storm also said it was too soon to know whether passengers were going to cancel flights because of the explosion.
Vamphyri Storm, TWA customer supervisor, said he did not think the explosion would hurt TWA, especially if investigators determined that mechanical failure wasn't the cause.
"There may be some people who

are canceling because of paranola, but we really don't know that yet," he said. "This incident will affect our business some, but any loss will probably be short-term."
Storm said this explosion or any other airline disaster probably would not affect the number of people who fly each year.
"Airline accidents should not cause any fear of flying. It's still the safest form of transportation." he
Ray Higgins, professor of psychology, said the fear of flying might be caused by phobias, which are irrational fears of a situation or a thing.
said. "More people die in car accidents than anything else. People don't stop driving cars because of all the accidents, and they probably won't quit flying either."
"Fear of flying is most likely a learned fear," he said. "People who develop phobias have a psychological predisposition to some extent."
He said that fears varied from person to person and that people learned fears in different ways.
"It may not be learned from direct experience," he said. "There are certain superstitions that culture creates. Children frequently learn fears from their parents."
Dianna Bennett, owner of Classic Travel, 520 W. 23rd Street, said that none of her customers had requested a refund on airline tickets because of the explosion.
Bennett, who was a flight attendant for TWA for 20 years, said she thought TWA was the safest carriers. See related story on page 4B.
Ott dies; service is held
Kansan staff writer

Michael Ott
assistant dean James Scally died in May.
"His work was best known for its humor," Thompson said.
Peter Thompson, dean of the School of Fine Arts, said at the memorial service that Ott was a sincere man who expressed himself through his paintings.
Ott had been an instructor at the University since 1969 and specialized in painting. This summer, he taught a life drawing class.
Ann Evans, executive director of the Lawrence Arts Center, said Ott was on the board of directors for three years and helped select artists for shows at the center's gallery.
"His kids had always taken classes at the Lawrence Arts Center," Evans said. "We all got to know him really well — as a dad, a volunteer and a wonderful artist."
Chancellor Robert Hemenway said Ott was one of the first people he met when he came to the University. They became friends while watching their sons play baseball together.
"I didn't even know he was a faculty member," Hemenway said. "He was a wonderful person. I found out later he was a wonderful faculty member, too."
Ott also was a long distance runner and coached many of his children's sports teams.
Those attending the service laughed when brother-in-law, Bert Hull, revealed Ott's remarkably low resting heart rate. They were moved to tears when Hull described the 30-year-old woman who received the donated heart. Seven others also benefited from Ott's donation.
"In his generosity, Mike will continue to give on," Hull said.
In 1967, Ott received a bachelor's degree of fine arts from the University of Colorado. He earned a master's degree in fine arts from the University of California at Berkeley.
Ott is survived by his wife, Genna, and children John, Alexander and Eleanor.
Hemenway said Ott's family should be the foremost concern right now.
"He has a wonderful family," Hemenway said. "They need all of our support."

Triple homicide leaves community in shock
Murders occur in upscale Salina neighborhood
The Associated Press
SALINA — Carol Abercrombie had planned to head back home to Tennessee with her grandson Monday after an extended visit here with her widowed mother.
Instead, shocked relatives are left to make funeral plans for all three while police look for clues in a triple homicide that has left this central Kansas community searching for answers.
Why would anyone want to kill Abercrombie, 56, of Soddy-Daisy, Tenn., her grandson, Christopher Abercrombie, 5, of Greenville, N.C., and Abercrombie's 80-year-old mother, Dorothy Dolores McKim?
"You expect it in Wichita," said Gerald Cook, president of the Salina Area Chamber of Commerce. "You don't expect it in Salina."
Least of all in the upscale neighborhood where McKim had lived with her husband, a retired electronics store owner and well-known amateur radio buff who died in February at the age of 80. The parents of Kansas Gov. Bill Graves live across the street, and two Salina city commissioners live nearby, one of them right next door to the McKim house.
Helen Graves, the governor's mother, said it was shocking for a crime of this nature to occur in Salina.
"We feel pretty crime-free," she said. "It just makes you wonder about the way of the world
todav."
Nearly 20 investigators with the Salina Police Department, Saline County Sheriff's Office and Kansas Bureau of Investigation were working on the case Monday, trying to find clues and appealing for help from anyone who might have noticed anything unusual in the area.
"As of this time, we do not have any suspects," Salina Police Chief Jim Hill said. "We desperately need help from the public."
"We can only speculate on a motive," the chief said.
Police were checking out every possible lead.
Hill would not comment when asked if the women were sexually assaulted, nor would he disclose an apparent cause of the victims' deaths, other than to say a weapon, which he would not describe, was involved. He said the weapon was not found at the house.
The chief said there was no sign of forced entry into the house, which wasn't equipped with a security system.
But he said the house was ransacked, with drawers opened and furniture knocked over, although there was no sign of an extended struggle where the bodies were found.
McKim's body was found in one bedroom, those of her daughter and the boy in another. All were dressed in night clothes, but Hill would not say whether they were in their beds.
Officials did not know if anything was stolen from the house, but Hill said handbags belonging to the two women were found in a car that was stolen from the McKim garage.
The car was found later Sunday in an apartment parking lot.
Officials believe the three were killed between 7 p.m. Saturday, when they were last seen by friends at the McKim house, and 9:15 a.m. Sunday, when another daughter of McKim, Kathy Melander of Assaria, began to call.
Police found the bodies at 12:43 p.m. after a concerned Melander came to the house.
She didn't enter after noticing her mother's car was missing and saw that doors from the garage to the house and back yard were open. Instead, she went next door to call police.
She said they had all planned to attend a Sunday matinee performance of Charlotte's Web at the Salina Community Theatre, and she had been calling all morning to make final plans for the outing.
"I knew that if they were going to go anywhere and not be back they would have called," she said.
Abercrombie and her grandson, who had been staying with her while his parents got settled at their new home in North Carolina, arrived in Salina July 10. They were to leave Monday.
Abercrombie was a librarian at a Christian School in Chattanooga, and she and her husband, Everett, a Cargill employee who was traveling in North Carolina during the weekend, were about to leave on a trip to Ireland and Scotland.
Christopher's parents, John and Leah Abercrombie, arrived in North Carolina just a few weeks ago. His father, a recent graduate of East Tennessee Medical School, was beginning the first year of an emergency medicine residency at East Carolina University School of Medicine, and his mother is a nurse at Pitt County Memorial Hospital.

Family's tragedy becomes another family's blessing
He was their only child.
OLATHE — Aaron Drake anu Luke Harbur had little in common, but their lives will always be linked in the minds of those who know them.
Their story is a story of two Olathe families: One desperately searching for a liver to keep their child alive; the other demonstrating courage and compassion in the face of their son's tragic death.
In June, 8-year-old Aaron Drake died unexpectedly while on a family camping trip to the Ozarks. Through his death, 11-month-old Luke Harbur was allowed to live, the recipient of Aaron's liver.
The Harburs' ordeal began several months ago when their newborn child was diagnosed with liver problems. An operation to fix the problem failed. The Harburs were told their infant would eventually need a transplant.
Kim and Nate Harbur lived in fear that a liver donor would not be found in time.
"We were scared and depressed," Nate Harbur said. "We wondered how long we would have him."
The Drakes' tragedy began on a family camping trip to the Ozarks. It ended when Aaron was pronounced dead after being removed from a life-support system — the victim of an attack caused by a fatal allergic reaction.
Kris Drake said the attack happened within a couple of minutes. Aaron suffered from asthma and allergies for most of his life but had never been in a life-threatening situation before.
For the Drakes, the loss of Aaron — their middle child — was devastating. They decided to donate their child's organs so that others could avoid the heartache they were experiencing.
like Aaron's spirit had already left his body and that he was already in heaven with Jesus."
"I think it was a very easy decision for us because we are Christians," Kris Drake said. "We felt
A few hundred miles away in then Olathe home, the Harburs were fighting through one of the most difficult and depressing periods since learning of Luke's need for a liver transplant.
"The day we found out about Aaron was probably the lowest I had felt since we realized Luke would need a transplant," Nate Harbur said.
Nate Harbur said his family had just found out that another baby who needed a liver had been brought into Children's Mercy Hospital in Kansas City, Mo., that day, and that she was in worse health than Luke.
"We had been first on the list for a liver transplant at Children's, but now the little girl was first, and we were moved back to second," he said.
The Harburs gathered family and friends around them and hoped that a miracle would happen.
About the same time the Drakes were contemplating donating Aaron's organs, a member of their church contacted them at the hospital in Springfield, Mo., where Aaron was taken following the attack.
Kris Drake said that the church member told them about Luke's condition and that there were some people in the church who were praying for him.
"I wasn't aware of Luke's condition and we didn't know the Harburs at all," she said. "But their situation really interested us."
The Harburs also had received a telephone call from one of their friends in Olathe who also knew the Drakes. The friend detailed the Drakes' tragedy and said it was possible they were going to donate Aaron's organs.
The Harburs were faced with dozens of questions, including whether Aaron's organs would be a match and whether Aaron's liver could be donated specifically to Luke.
Aaron's organs did match, and the Drakes were allowed to designate Luke as the recipient. As for the little girl also awaiting a transplant, another liver donor had been located for her earlier in the day.
Meanwhile, the Drakes had gathered their entire family at Aaron's bedside in Springfield. They discussed every option with the doctors treating Aaron. After several hours, they decided Aaron's organs should be donated.
Within hours, Aaron's organs had not only become part of Luke's life, but others throughout the Midwest had received Aaron's heart, kidneys, lungs and eyes.
Nate Harbur remembers the moment they told him his son's transplant operation had been a success:
"I just had an overwhelming and compelling love for this family that gave our son this gift of life," he said, choking back tears. "In their greatest time of tragedy — the loss of their child — they were able to think about helping someone else."

GTA salary complaint remains unresolved
Hearing officer dismisses union grievance; union members want review of decision
Kansan staff report
Graduate teaching assistants don't seem to be making much progress in their efforts to obtain a 3.5-percent salary increase that other KU employees received in 1995.
A hearing officer last Wednesday dismissed the GTA union's complaint against the University of Kansas. The union charged that the University failed to bargain in good faith during negotiations last year.
"We're disappointed in the decision," said Karen Hellekson, GTA coalition president. ("The hearing officer) did not address the substance of our complaints — KU's failure to bargain in good faith. He based his decision on what seems to me like a technicality."
George Wolf, the hearing officer, dismissed the complaints against the University because the Department of Administration was not made part of the original negotiations, as required by law. This failure to comply with Kansas state law renders void any attempt to meet as contemplated by the statute, Wolf said in a public statement.
The burden of including the Department of Administration was the University's responsibility. Wolf stated that failure of the University to act appropriately placed GTAs and the Kansas Association of Public Employees in a position of either assuming that the University had followed protocol or contacting the department themselves
Hellekson said she hoped the union and the University could sit down again with all the proper procedures and give negotiations another try.
Short classes help and hinder
By Andrea Albright Kansan staff writer
Students and instructors about to finish shortened, intensive summer classes have mixed feelings about the University's accelerated curriculum program.
Many KU departments offer two-three- and four-week classes to summer school students instead of the regular eight-week schedule.
Normal summer courses cover 16 weeks of material in eight weeks. Accelerated classes cover the same material in fewer than eight weeks by increasing the length and number of meetings each week.
assistant in political science,
taught an accelerated course
because he needed the money but
said the shortened schedule
caused an overload of information.
"I found it more difficult to cover the same amount of material that would normally have been covered in 16 weeks," he said.
Phil Huxtable, graduate teaching
Murray Levin, associate professor of business, said in an eight-week class an instructor could convey a basic understanding of the subject before assigning projects and moving on to more complex material.
Levin said it was difficult to have the normal progression of events in a four-week class.
Classes that met for three or four weeks do not afford instructors that luxury.
"I think it's a struggle," he said. "The problem is not how much material I can cover but how much I can ask the students to do outside of class."
Some students like the compressed classes because they can finish quickly. However, some said the quality of the classes suffered because of the fast pace.
Robin Daniel, Topeka senior, said she was given new material in her introductory political science course. She ended up cramming for the tests and didn't have enough time to learn the information.
"It flew by," Daniel said, "but I wouldn't take core curriculum classes in my major that way."
Some instructors said the accelerated classes are a good idea for non-traditional and working students even though the sixteenweek pace is more conducive to learning.
Huxtable's students earned higher grades than average this summer, but he said they were exceptionally motivated.
"I was very pleased with the results, but it's a lot of work," Huxtable said. "It's the only thing going on in your life."
When dog bites, its owner pays
Vicious four-legged friends may cut your budget, bring other troubles
By Emily Redmond Kansan staff writer
KU police have a simple message for students who bring their dogs to campus and either tie them up or let them run free: don't do it.
"We try to push students not to bring dogs to campus," said Officer Gail Reece of the University of Kansas police department. "Even well-behaved dogs will get upset. Sometimes trouble results."
Some dog owners are convinced that their dogs will not attack people.
"I know he won't bite anyone because his disposition is incredibly friendly," said Dan Kohanzo, Palatine, Ill., senior. "But if it did happen, I'd apologize to the person and then tell them he has all his shots."
Like many students, Kohanzo was unaware of what could happen if his animal bites someone while on campus.
"I take him to campus to break the monotony of him sitting in the house." Kohanzo said.
When a person reports that a dog has bitten someone, the bite is examined by certified medical personnel. If the bite results in a puncture wound or is serious enough, the owner is advised to place the dog in quarantine at a veterinarian's office. The dog owner must pay for all fees incurred during the period of quarantine, usually a minimum of 10 days. Some dogs are kept for a longer period of time at the discretion of the veterinarian.
The veterinarian keeps an eye on the dog to see if it gets sick and administers proper vaccinations.
"If it develops rabies then we know for sure if the dog is ill," Reece said.
When a dog bites someone, fines
"We try to push students not to bring dogs to campus. Even well-behaved dogs will get upset."
Gall Reece KU police officer
can be levied against its owner for letting the dog run loose or knowingly owning a vicious dog, even if it is on a leash when it bites someone.
"A lot depends on how a bite occurs," Reece said. "Especially if the person is antagonizing the dog."
KU police closely examine the circumstances surrounding an incident. They look at whether the dog was on a leash. If it were on a leash and it bit someone, then police have to consider if the dog is viscous and the attack was unprovoked. They also have to determine whether the attack was provoked by the individual that was bitten.
"There are lots of things to consider," Reece said.
Although there are only two or three reports of dog bites a year, some of the dogs reported are not registered to an owner and are roaming free.
Police distribute flyers or search for the dog. Most of the time the search is in vain, but if they do find the dog, the dog it is quarantined.
Internet site blends music and AIDS info
By Gwen Olson
Kansan staff writer
Two KU graduates recently created a Web site on the Internet that shows the alleged government cover-up of research on AIDS and related syndromes.
Charles Ortleb, a 1971 KU graduate, developed the site and its new "documusical" called Refuse and Resist, which features 10 songs explaining the links between AIDS and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.
"Right now the site has just the first songs, but we are trying to enlist help to stretch out one song and add the dialogue of scientists," Ortleb said. "It's a musical for the cutting edge of technology."
The site soon will include articles written during the last nine years by Neenyah Ostrom, a 1974 KU graduate.
Ostrom began her work with Ortleb in 1987 and started researching Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, which at that time had not been named.
"Chuck (Orleb) began seeing parallels between AIDS and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome," Ostrom said. "What I have done through my research is create the story line for the musical."
Ostrom's research shows many links of the two syndromes, something she said makes her work controversial.
Ostrom's research details the problems with many of the drug treatments on which AIDS patients rely, showing that some of these drugs are toxic and contain carcinogens.
"The least resistance has come from the patients," she said. "Patients have been giving me great support."
The music can be heard on the
Internet using RealAudio software that can be downloaded at no charge.
"Within a week or two, we also will have the lyrics up, so that they can be read on the site as well as listened to." Orteb said. "That should cause the use of the site to grow dramatically for people who are not as computer literate."
Ortleb has many ideas to help the musical reach as many people as possible.
"This is going to take a while to do," he said. "We are looking into working with an Internet company to make it more available and to work with a record company to enlist the help of musicians who could offer their versions of the songs, making them available to everyone."
The musical and the site are still in progress, and new elements will be added until the entire musical can be viewed with music, dialogue and video scenes.
Another feature, which can be viewed for $30, is the book Ostler's Web, written by another researcher, Hilary Johnson.
Johnson's book alleges that government scientists are keeping details of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome hidden from the public.
The site also includes an interview with Johnson detailing the major focus of the book.
Ortleb said the site would continue to grow as new information became available. He hopes the project will lead other groups to make similar information available to the public and follow the innovative ideas of the site.
"We decided to present this in an entertaining and humorous way," Ostrom said. "I think of it as a big mystery story, and there are still clues to follow."
The Internet address for Ostrom and Ortleb's musical web site is http://www.tsradio.com.

OPINION
UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
VIEWPOINT
University suffers from lack of state financing
Last month, the University of Kansas lost Aletha Huston and John Wright, co-directors of the Center for Research on the Influences of Television on Children, to the University of Texas in Austin. Although the couple had been at the University for 20 years, they accepted the offer in Texas, not just for a change of scenery, but for higher salaries and more research funding.
These two esteemed faculty members are only two casualties the University has suffered because it doesn't receive enough funding from the state to increase faculty salaries.
Administrators' salaries lag behind those at peer universities.
Chancellor Robert Hemenway has restructured the administration to reduce red tape and save money. By consolidating administrative positions, administrators' responsibilities have increased, but their

salaries do not reflect this shift. Salaries for KU administrators during the 1996 fiscal year were 10 percent less than the average salaries at five peer universities, such as the University of Oklahoma and University of North Carolina, said Tom Hutton, director of University Relations. KU administrators' salaries are 7 percent less than the average at other Big Eight Universities, Hutton said.
Students should urge the Legislature to increase the administrators' and faculty salaries by writing state representatives and asking them to support the increase before the University loses more of its administration or faculty.

Campaign signs stick names not issues, in voters' minds
Campaign signs have begun to pepper the Lawrence community as August primaries approach.
Streets are lined with lawn signs endorsing local and national candidates for their chosen offices. Although these signs effectively advertise the names of candidates to voters, they don't inform the electorate and are an eyesore.
Name-recognition signs do little to promote an intelligent choice by voters. They cater to the vaguest of instincts in people, prompting votes with little or no ideological basis.
The excessive waste involved in printing these signs only to have them fall victim to certain obsolescence should convince the candidates that they only are a marginally useful political device.
Campaign money could

Campaign signs advertise candidate names, but do nothing to inform the electorate of campaign issues.
be spent more effectively on other forms of advertising. For example, mass mailings that detail the stances of the candidates on issues would be a more informative way to persuade voters.
Candidates who continue to deal in simple minded election tactics are catering to an uninformed public.
Elections should be based on issues, not who has the most signs or the most recognized name. Although this ideal may be difficult to achieve there is no better place to begin than in your front yard.

People who take their time are the embodiment of evil
That could be true, because as an impatient person trying to survive in a world of slow people, I often feel like I'm living in hell.

If patience is a virtue, then I must be the devil.
I've seen it in the people standing behind the lady at the post office who wants to know every possible way to mail a package. When I see them fidget nervously and look as if they want to shove the woman aside and take her place at the counter, I want to reach out to them and say, "I feel for you."
Perhaps then the military can use impatient people such as myself as secret weapons, sending us to enemy countries to attack unsuspecting slow people in line at an ATM. If that's the case, they can go ahead and send me overseas. I'm ready to maim someone.
Slow people have the upper-hand in this world. While they can do plenty of things to slow down impatient people such as myself, there is very little I could do to get them to speed up.
I have seen evil, and it is in the actions of those who take the longest time to get things done. While I could say more, I am growing impatient and would rather not waste any more of anyone's time.
I've often wondered if people such as myself are being secretly tested to see how far we can be pushed before we finally kill those who delay us.
If you ask me, the real demons are those who move so slowly through the everyday world that they force me to waste my time waiting for them. It's as if their sole purpose is to drive me crazy.
Each day I see these evil beings in a variety of forms. I see them as minivan drivers who pull into the passing lane of the highway with no intention of passing. They take the form of the old lady in the supermarket check-out line who waits until all 200 of her items are scanned and totaled before she decides to begin digging in her purse for her checkbook.

These creatures make my heart race and my muscles tighten. Even though I may be in a hurry, there's nothing I can do to make them move faster. It takes everything inside me to keep from yelling, "Why couldn't you look for your checkbook before? In that half-hour the clerk was scanning your items, did you really have to wait?"
FIRE!

Marriage act stands against human rights Constitution
Earlier this month, the U.S. House of Representatives passed the Defense of Marriage Act. The vote on this ill-conceived legislation wasn't even close; the House passed the bill 342 to 67. This act releases states from having to recognize marriages performed in other states, specifically same-sex marriages.
STAFF COLUMNIST
Imagine my surprise when I opened my mailbox and found a letter from her office. Meyer's response was illustrative of the ignorant bigotry that has dominated the debate in Congress. Although I found her position remarkably unenlightened, I don't begrudge her an opinion. What I do have a problem with is the way she freely admitted that this bill was designed to subvert Constitutional intent.
SHANNON TAUSCHER
Prior to the passage of this bill, I wrote to my representative, Jan Meyers, to express my concern about this discriminatory legislation. I didn't expect my plea to change her mind. I simply felt that I had to express my disgust with this election-year posturing and
scapegoating of the lesbian and gay community. I certainly didn't expect a response.
Meyers said in the letter that she didn't think it appropriate for a small group of judges to change the institution of marriage.
The judiciary exists as part of the checks-and-balances system which protects people from the government instituting policies and practices preventing people from enjoying the benefits afforded to all citizens. It is not only appropriate but required that judges make determinations regarding the constitutionality of certain laws, regardless of the popularity of possible changes that may result from a ruling.
According to Article IV, Section I of the Constitution, known as the Full Faith and Credit Clause, states have to recognize the laws of other states. A test case is now pending in the Hawaii State Supreme Court. If the court rules that the state has no compelling public policy rationale for denying civil marriage benefits to same-sex couples, the Defense of Marriage Act overrides the constitutional clause. It tells lesbian and gay people who want to enjoy the emotional, economic and legal benefits of civil marriage that they are simply out of luck if they leave Hawaii.
Meyers' position on lesbian and gay marriages is hauntingly similar to the positions held by the majority of Americans in the 1960s when interracial marriages were illegal. Until the Supreme Court struck that law down in 1967, the law stated that all marriages between a white person and a person of color shall be absolutely void.
Just because Congress is willing to pander to those who would deny basic human rights to a certain segment of our tax-paying population does not mean that it is moral or just.
One year after the Supreme Court decision, 70 percent of Americans disapproved of interracial marriage. The same percentage currently opposes same-sex marriage.
Jan Meyers is entitled to her opinion but should remember that legislation designed to prevent equal treatment under the law is unbecoming of an elected official.

Royal marriage is no bloody fairy tale
Will the end of the royal marriage mean the end of our fascination with Princess Diana? Not bloody likely.
What is it about this particular royal that fascinates us? Quite simply, Lady Diana Spencer offered an irresistible combination. She seemingly was a shy, nice and lovely girl who happened to meet and marry her Prince Charming. That Charles turned into a frog and Diana didn't exactly transform into ideal Queen material doesn't matter. In fact, it simply turned the fairy tale into a delightfully trashy novel.
GUEST COLUMNS
Our interest in the Royal family didn't begin with Charles and Diana, but it certainly reached new heights. Millions watched enthralled when Lady Diana wed her prince in St. Paul's Cathedral. Their shy kiss on the balcony merely affirmed our belief that this was a match even Disney would have envied. And when Diana came through with the requisite "heir and a spare" in just three years, she proved her worth to the Royal Family.
A mere five years after the magical wedding, Charles was back to his old tricks with former flame Camilla Parker Bowles — the face only a man who has seen too much inbreeding could love. Not to be left out, Diana's riding lessons turned into an affair with Major James Hewitt. The plot thickened.
During the 10 years Charles and Diana immersed themselves in torment and trying again, the public's sentiments increasingly turned in favor of the Princess. While Charles spent months away from his children, Diana's devotion to parenting was chronicled. While the prince played polo and avoided the spotlight, the princess championed major charities and tangued with Travolta.
Even Diana's publicized blunders couldn't compare to Charles' indiscretions. In the battle of the nauseating phone conversations, Charles won hands down. After all, having a lover nickname you "Squidgy" is merely embarrassing. And wanting to impersonate a feminine hygiene product is downright revolting.
From peculiar to the outrageous,
there were plenty of scandals to attract our attention. So why did Charles and Diana captivate us?
Despite much evidence to the contrary, we just can't imagine that anyone with so much money and privilege can't find happiness. In America, most of us agree with Daffy Duck — "Consequences, schmonsequences, as long as I'm rich."
It confuses and fascinates us when money doesn't solve all problems.
Money could not save the marriage, but it finally did buy Prince Charles a divorce. Diana will receive a $26 million lump sum and plenty of other perks. Most of us think she deserves it. After all, if Shaq merits $55 million to play basketball, Diana should get fair compensation. If not for her work as a goodwill ambassador for Britain, then for raising two impressive children and one future king.
For the 15 years in which she has held center stage, Princess Diana showed us a personality that ran the gamut from petulance to graciousness, self-absorption to selflessness, childish antics to exemplary parenting. In other words, she's human. Unlike the chilly and often bizarre Prince Charles, Diana's mistakes generally have been forgivable and occasionally even endearing.
Fifteen years ago, we watched the fairy tale begin. Now that it has ended we can't help but hope for a bright future for Diana. Because even in a trashy novel, the princess lives happily ever after.

Praise is priceless to its recipients
Doesn't a little positive recognition feel good? Such is the power of praise. It's something all of us could use more of.
Praising someone isn't the same as thanking someone, because thanking someone usually concerns you and what that person did for you. Thanking someone tends to go like this: "Thanks for helping me get that project done on time." Praise, on the other hand, puts the spotlight on someone else's accomplishments. Praising someone goes more like this: "You did an outstanding job on that project, especially given our time constraints." See the difference?
In addition, we often depend on praise substitutes like gold stars, good grades, pay raises, bonuses and awards, but these can't take the place of praise. We also tend to assume that people know they've done a good job and that they are appreciated. This may be true sometimes, but just knowing isn't enough.
That's because praise is about being valued by the people around you. And being valued is connected to being liked. In childhood, we yearn for praise from our parents, our friends, our teachers. We learn that what we do reflects who we are. If we do something well, we want to hear from those around us that we have succeeded. If we know we are valued by others, we come to value ourselves.
Praise's powerful influence continues into adulthood. Unfortunately, praise is a rare commodity for children and adults. We should try to make praise a more commonplace. Here are some rules of thumb to help in that quest:
Avoid passionless praise. If you don't really mean it, the praise is pointless.
Praise given in private, from one person to another, often seems more special than public announcements of praise. Maybe this is because the person giving private praise is not doing so to improve his own image to onlookers.
Consider making your praise permanent by writing it down. Recently, a supervisor in my workplace wrote me a note telling me I had done a terrific job putting together a newsletter. She decorated it with cheesy cartoon stickers reminiscent of the teachers plastered on my homework in grade school. Not only did the supervisor boost my ego, but I have her praise in writing whenever I need a reminder that I'm
Avoid the urge of offering qualified praise. If the report was great, but had an error, bring up the error later. Otherwise, the person you're praising will probably obsess about the error and miss the praise altogether. Constructive criticism is fine, but praise succeeds best in its purest form.
doing a good job.
Don't lavish an empty compliment on someone. This dilutes the value of true praise. Sometimes praise is at a premium for a reason.
To determine if praise is called for, ask yourself a simple question: Are someone's actions commendable? If the answer is yes, pour on some praise.
We should make every effort to praise the people in our lives when they deserve it.
Let them know they are valued. A little praise doesn't cost us anything. But it can be priceless to the person who receives it.

Persistence turns dreams to reality
When I missed a fourth opportunity to leave Russia to study in the United States, my friend told me about a theory which later brought success to my life.
"Look, I believe that if you missed your train, it was not really your train. You will catch another one later," he said.
I gave him a look of disbelief.
He continued, "I mean that if you miss your chance to go to the States today, you will get there in the future.
"Let's take my life for example," he said. "Two years ago I divorced my first wife. But later I met another woman, and now I am happily married."
"Marriage does not count," I said.
"OK, here is another story," he said. "You know that I am a postcard collector. Once, I desperately needed a card to complete a set. It took me months to track down the man who had such a card. But I simply could not afford his asking price. But on the next day, a friend of mine told me that he had the card I needed. He even offered it to me as a gift," he said.
My friend's story made me hope-
1.
And I needed some hope. Five years earlier I had made my first effort to go to a U.S. journalism school. Unfortunately, I failed a critical examination. A year later I passed the exam, but did not survive the interview process.
The next year I passed the test and succeeded in the interview, but the school to which I applied declined my application. Then I decided to apply to a dozen schools. Three schools accepted me, but I did not find money to cover the expenses.
Eight months later, I learned about USIA grants for graduate study in the United States. I filled out the necessary documents and turned them in. On my dad's birthday, I received a phone call: I had received the grant, and the University of Kansas had accepted me.
I finally caught my train.
Size does matter bulk buying is bliss
Aleksei Zhuravliev Graduate student
If shopping can be considered a religious experience, then I have been to the mountain. This past weekend, I skipped the regular retail areas, bypassed the malls and grocery stores and went straight to bulk-item nirvana.
The outside didn't offer any signs that this was a special place. But that's by design. This place is for members only. That was clear to me as the double doors parted and everyone flashed photo IDs. I was fortunate to be with an authorized member.
This was my first pilgrimage to a warehouse. It never occurred to me that someone who has no children, doesn't own a restaurant or drive a minivan would find bulk-shopping bliss.
Judging from the two-story high industrial shelves stacked floor to ceiling, this was the place to shop for mass quantities. Here they measured things in bushels, not boxes.
There were no signposts in the aisles to direct you to specific product categories. You had to look for goods on faith or at least
try to comprehend the bizarre logic that went into the merchandising. I found it disconcerting that stacks of 36-roll toilet paper sat next to racks of Pirelli tires. But that pairing was no worse than others. If you were in the market for a compressor or a wheeled creeper, both could be found in the aisle with popcorn poppers and drinking glasses.
Beyond the shelves of durable goods, past the soda vending machines — for sale, not for quenching thirst — this bastion of bulk boasted a sizable frozen-food section. If you've ever wondered how many cuts there are of chicken, there are nine. I'm not sure which parts are used, but it appears nothing is wasted.
As we checked out, I kept looking for a bagger, or someone to pack our plunder.
"They don't make bags that big, sir," the kind checker told me as he pointed to a 7-feet-tall cage full of box bottoms. As we loaded my items, I developed this overwhelming feeling that I needed to justify my bulk purchases to our cashier. "Yes, I do need five gallons of Pine Sol. I like to keep a clean house." We finished loading our boxes and headed for the door.
Just one more stop — Checkpoint Charlie, I call it. You don't leave this place until your receipt is punched. Makes sense. As the young guy glanced at my receipt, he eyed the enormous package of Tums listed at the top. Easy to explain, I said. "You see, I'm in publishing."
Enough said.
I'm a changed man since I experienced the benefits of bulk. Will I make the trek again? Yes, with great fervor.
But I'm still at a loss about one thing. Just how many ways are there to use crountons when you cook? Maybe I'll be enlightened on my next pilgrimage. But I suspect a bushel leaves room for a lot of experimentation.

Craig Weishar was never so happy after a loss.

"That was one of the coolest things I've done," he said.
Weishaar, Topeka junior, was a member of the Topeka Heights basketball team participating in last weekend's Sunflower State Games basketball tournament. His team had just been crushed 90-61 in the opening round, but Weishaar was all smiles.
That's because Topeka Heights lost to KU #1; a team comprised of current and former Jayhawk basketball players that included Nicky Bradford, Sean Pearson, Calvin Rayford, Jacque Vaughn and B.J. Williams.
"It was quite an opportunity to be able to play against them," Weishaar said. "Trying to defend these guys is impossible so we're just out there having fun."
Despite all its talent, the KU #1 team lost in the third round to a team called MAC. The Wichita Pacers won the gold.
Famous athletes and ordinary students were part of the opening weekend events.
Basketball, soccer and tennis kicked off the action, and more than 25 sports will start on Friday and finish on Sunday.
The Sunflower State Games is Kansas' largest amateur competition, with more than 7,000 athletes and 12,000 visitors expected to be in Lawrence.
Events will occur around Lawrence, but mostly will be held on the KU campus.
Participating athletes like the events for a variety of reasons.
"I think this is the greatest thing that has happened to the state of Kansas in a long time," said Jack
Last weekend was the first time Bradford, an incoming freshman on the basketball team, played with his future teammates in a competitive
situation.
"It was a good opportunity because we were able to play together," Bradford said. "They're learning about me, and I'm learning about them."
Volunteers are welcome to help in this weekend's events. Anyone interested can call 842-7774. The opening ceremonies are 8 p.m. Friday at Hoglund-Maupin Stadium.
Bradford also shed more light on why he choose Kansas.
up in the attention from the media.
He described Kansas athletes as "real people" who don't get caught
"But I want a ring. I want that championship ring, and I think we can win it all here."
Alliance launches first true football title game
The Associated Press
Granddaddy gave in, and a true college football championship game was created.
The Rose Bowl, a bowl alliance outsider which watched as its classic diminished in importance, completed the national picture picture yesterday when ABC announced a four-year deal to televise a championship game beginning after the 1988 season.
ABC Sports and four conferences announced the formation of a super alliance that brings the oldest of the bowl games, the Rose Bowl, together with the bowl alliance in a system that guarantees a championship game for the next four years.
"This is the super alliance," said Gene Corrigan, commissioner of the Atlantic Coast Conference. "This is the ultimate, and this is what we really wanted."
Beginning with the 1998 season, the champion will be decided from among the six major conference champions and two at-large selections. The conferences are the ACC, Big East, SEC, Big 12, all from the bowl alliance, and the Pac-10 and Big Ten, until now bound by contract to send their champions to the Rose Bowl.
Coaches heralded the announcement as a giant advance for college football.
John Robinson, whose 1978 team at Southern Cal was forced to share the national title when the AP and UPI polls differed at season's end, said the agreement should prevent similar circumstances in the future.
"This should be something that will be good for college football
and for the fans of the game," Robinson said. "I'm a big fan of the Rose Bowl, but I'm also a big fan of finding a way to crown a true national champion."
Penn State coach Joe Paterno, who has had four unbeaten teams denied a share of the crown, said, "It's always been my contention that teams should have the opportunity to win championships on the field."
Some coaches said they hoped computer rankings would eventually play a role in determining Nos.1 and 2.
Notre Dame coach Lou Holtz said that it was always going to be a judgment call who gets in there, as long as it's determined by voters.
"I hope they allow the computers to enter into it somewhat," he said.
Until the new alliance goes into effect, the Sugar Bowl will sponsor the championship game this year and the Orange Bowl will sponsor it next year. Those games won't include Big Ten or Pac-10 schools, because those联赛 remain obligated to send their champions to the Rose Bowl.
Harriman Cronk, chairman of the football committee of the Tournament of Roses Association, said the Rose Bowl worked out the best deal it could.
"This was a desire on the part of the tournament to satisfy what the presidents of the universities wanted, and that was that they did not want any type of a playoff," Cronk said. "At the same time, they said we would like to play for a national championship."

The thrill of falling
A group of people in a circle performing a jump. They are holding hands and balancing on their backs against a cloudy sky.
By Paul Eakins
Kansan staff writer
After 28 years experience skydiving and nearly 2,000 jumps, John Schuman has seen it all.
"I've seen very beautiful moments and the worst. I've seen broken backs, busted legs, and dead bodies," said Schumann, a Lawrence carpenter.
Schuman, 45, said he became fascinated with sky diving at a young age.He spent hours drawing parachuters jumping out of planes. He started skydiving with the K-State Parachute Club in 1969.
Schuman has competed in regional and national skydiving competitions and compares skydiving to body surfing, where the force of the waves holds the bodysurf up.
"You leave the plane and feel a force hit you," he said.
This force acts a lot like the waves of the ocean.
If the skydiver should lose concentration and not maintain a stable position, it's easy to spin out of control. And, like waves crashing against a bodysurfer, the air can take its toll on a skydiver's body.
"One time I spun out hard, and when I landed the entire right side of my face was red from the force of the air," he said.
Once the skydiver has jumped from the plane and gained stability, Schuman said the skydiver or team has about 45 seconds to a minute to do the maneuvers or formations, depending on the altitude the jump was started.
Schuman, who skydives 15-20 times a month, has placed first and second in regional competitions during his skydiving career.
There are several categories of competition for professional skydivers. In the speedstyle, the skydiver attempts to go as fast as possible, usually in an upright position. The fastest average speed set by a skydiver is 320 mph, Schuman said.
In formation flying, called relative work, a group of skydivers hold onto each other in a pattern for as long as they can before deploying their parachutes.
"The hot new thing is 20-way competition," said Schuman, referring to a maneuver involving 20 skydivers. "They try to change the pattern as many times as they can. Top teams can change eight times in 45 seconds."
Schuman and Maureen Gorsuch, a Kansas City-area massage therapist, comprise a free-fly team called City Lights, which competes regularly.
Through the years skydiving has evolved from a way to escape burning buildings to an art form of sorts. For years, skydiving involved falling with one's body parallel to the ground. In the past three years, the invention of vertical skydiving, called free flying, has added a whole new dimension to the sport.
The two must keep their bodies perpendicular to the ground during the entire free fall, which is videotaped by a photographer who jumps with the team. The competition is judged by the video.
As the popularity of skydiving has increased, many people are skydiving for the sheer thrill or the adrenaline rush. However, Schuman takes it more seriously. He teaches private lessons only to advanced skydivers. Three of his former students have placed first in world competitions. Two of those students were in the five Olympic rings formed by skydivers over Seoul, Korea, during the 1988 Olympic Games.
Schuman has begun to do camera work for other skydivers. He also publishes a
monthly skydiving newsletter called Southwind and has done free-lance writing for national skydiving magazines.
Gorsuch, Schuman's teammate, has been skydiving for two years and has 290 jumps to date.
"He has taught me to be really aware, to rely on my eyes," Goursch said of Schuman
Schuman said that skydiving was one of the most modern sports because it allows the athlete the move in every possible direction.
"In free fall, we're truly able to show the athlete prowess of an athlete," he said.
Although skydiving has been getting more coverage from ESPN and the network's Extreme Games, Schuman said skydiving has not been fully accepted as a serious sport.
There are more than 500 drop zones in America, increasing the availability of skydiving.
Skydiving is an expensive sport and Schuman said he spent about $6,000 a year pursuing it.
As a professional skydiver, he has $5,000 of equipment, including a parachute pack, extra parachutes, a helmet with a built-in camera and a skydiving suit.
Schuman said four nearby skydiving locations were airports in Wamego, Osage City, Lexington, Mo., and Independence, Mo. Each location offers skydiving classes. Learning to skydivive costs $140 on average, which usually includes six to eight hours of classroom training and a jump.
After 10-15 jumps with an instructor, the
skydiver achieves student status and can rent the gear and jump for about $25.
A skydiving license isn't required by law. However, Schuman said about 80 percent of professional skydivers were licensed by the United States Parachutting Association, a private organization. With a license and equipment, Schuman said he could jump for $10-$15 almost anywhere in the nation.
In the past, skydiving was not a realistic spectator sport because the only thing that people on the ground could watch was the landing, Schuman said. However, with the introduction of the video camera in skydiving, the spectators can watch what is going on thousands of feet above them.

MUSIC REVIEW
Asia comeback is weak; Electronic reflects New Order
Review by Andrew Dalton
Asia Arena (Resurgence). Many years ago—well,
the early 80s—a supergroup consisting of former members of Yes, King Crimson and Emerson, Lake, and Palmer was formed. That supergroup was known as Asia.
Released in 1982, the selftitled debut album sold over 3 million copies, reached number one and spawned two top-20 singles
PENN STATE UNIVERSITY
(Only Time Will Tell and Heat of the Moment). The group disbanded in 1986 and refused to release a greatest hits album in 1990. Since then, the band has
undergone numerous line-up changes while residing in relative obscurity.
This album includes nothing similar to the crisp guitar of Steve Howe who left the band after Arie. Geoff Downes is the only remaining member of the original lineup, and the songs revolve around his keyboards almost completely, which is really a good thing. Overall 4 out of 10.
I wish I could say that *Arena* marks a return to Asia's glory years, but it doesn't.
Electronic Raise the Pressure (Warner Brothers). Electronic features the combination of New Order's lead vocalist Bernard Sumner and former Smiths' guitarist Johnny Marr.
The sound erected by these veterans of the modern rock world is similar to the late sound of New Order rather than to anything the Smiths ever did.
Any fan of New Order wishing for a new album should definitely check this out. I found little difference between the latest New Order record Republic and Raise the Pressure.
As with most of New Order's albums, Raise the Pressure features a number of heavily keyboarded
A. Lumbar spine
dance tracks mixed in with a few dark, droning songs. The only real difference between New Order and Electronic is the absence of the cutting-edge mixture of dance and new wave.
Where New Order has this,
Electronic comes across
as pure dance pop.
DoverU7.
Vernon Reid Mistaken Identity (Sony). Former lead guitarist for Living Colour, Vernon Reid finally has released the long-awaited follow-up to the now
disbanded Living Colour.
Much of this record sounds like Living Colour without lead singer Corey Glover. Many of the songs are instrumentals featuring Reid's trademark guitar, but
others are a mixture of rap, funk and jazz.
rap, funk and jazz.
On these Reid takes a back seat to other fine musicians, letting them showcase their talent. Fans of Living Colour will enjoy Mistaken Identity where Reid is omnipresent but will probably be turned away from the lighter side of this record.
Also of interest is the CD's CD-Extra capability that can be accessed on CD-Rom drives. Overall 5.

"Serious Drinks for Drinking Seriously"
Kevin Spacey realizes success has its downside
NEW YORK — Kevin Spacey is scaring himself.
The Associated Press
Highly skilled at frightening the popcorn out of movie audiences with portrayals of killers and creeps.
Spacey spooks himself by considering the pitfalls of success.
M. C. KENNEDY
"How many times in our experience do we, five years or so after some body really breaks out, ask ourselves, 'Whatever happened'
Kevin Spacey
to so-and-so?" Spacey said.
After building a career as a journeyman actor beloved equally in Hollywood and on Broadway, Spacey really broke out in 1995, appearing in Outbreak, Swimming With Sharks, the popular hit Seven and The Usual Suspects, which brought him an Academy Award for supporting actor.
Now, with the release of his latest film, A Time to Kill, Spacey wants to make sure he's not a forgotten celebrity so-and-so when the new millennium rolls around.
"Tennessee Williams wrote a really great essay called The Catastrophe of Success about what can happen to someone in the arts, because it happened to him." Spacey said.
Spacey avoided the distraction of his big year because he was busy directing his first movie, Albino Alligator, in New Orleans while Hollywood oohed and aahed over his fast-talking career criminal, Verbal Kint, in The Usual Suspects and the psychokiller with no fingerprints in Seven.
Not that he completely escaped the distraction. An Oscar is still an Oscar, after all.
"There was sort of a steamroller effect," he said of the critical acclaim, supporting actor Oscar nomination and the subsequent award. "It's just been really important to me to keep working, to keep that work ethic going.
"I if honor the tribute then that means I have to continue to do things that challenge me and I have to continue doing stuff that I believe in, you know. If I do a couple of nobrainers for a lot of money, then I'll probably deserve to get sent to my
room for a little while," he said.
A 15-year veteran of Broadway productions, Spacey first went mainstream on television in the late 1980s, playing maniac drug kingpin Mel Profuse on Wiseguy.
Ever cautious, he handled his first taste of fame the same way he's managing his latest move toward superstardom—warily.
"I have been around for, like, years, quietly doing my work," he said. "I've tried hard not to capitalize on some things I did that got attention, times when I could have run with the ball.
"When Wiseguy happened, you know, I was offered other series; and there were opportunities to, sort of, do more of the same kind of thing. But I just didn't want to become Kevin 'Wiseguy' Spacey for the next years."
Suddenly two scruffy Generation Xers in faded blue jeans casually saunter inside. The guy has curly hair and a patchy blondish beard. The woman is bone thin, her face partly covered by long straight jetblack hippie hair.
They're both dressed-down, it takes a second to realize they're not a couple of gate-crashing panhandlers, but instead Spacey's A Time to Kill co-stars Sandra Bullock and Matthew McConaughey, taking a break from the grind of publicity work.
"Hi, sweet pea," Bullock said, hugging Spacey close and smothering him with friendly kisses. "We wanted to come and say goodbye before you go. Now, when do we get to see your film?"
McConaughey sidles over for a brotherly embrace, promising to meet Spacey again to sample the delights of sushi, sake and sweet Spanish songs.
Bullock insists that Spacey absolutely must rent a villa in Italy she stayed at once, scribbling the telephone number down on hotel stationery. After another hug, she threatens to play a little ditty on the piano across the room, laughs at the looks she gets, then grabs McConaughey and dashes out.
"Uh, where were we?" Spacey said, grinning, clearly loving the sincere show of affection, revealing as much about himself as anything he might say.
Despite his longtime presence and recent prominence, the actor who celebrated his 37th birthday two days after the debut of *A Time to Kill* remains an enigma, and he likes
it that wav.
"I don't know how many entertainment programs there are, talks shows, magazines, whatever, but there are a lot," he said. "And it seems to me that has taken some of the mystery out of it.
"The actors I've admired most often are the ones that I know the least about. I don't know much about Anthony Hopkins, I don't know much about Robert De Niro. I don't know a hell of a lot about Harvey Keitel. And each time I see them they do something that startles me," he said.
He has shielded himself so fiercely from media prying that little is known about his personal life beyond the fact he lives alone in Greenwich Village.
"I happen to care greatly for the loved ones in my life. They didn't ask to come along on this ride," he said. "So I will continue to protect that part of my life with every fiber that I have. I just think it's a right that I don't have to give up."
Spacey dropped his usual avoidance of the press in January when footage from Albino Alligator was stolen at Los Angeles International Airport. He took to the airwaves to plead for the celluloid's safe return.
"Ah, the infamous lost film. That was five sleepless nights. I got lucky," Spacey said. "I went on the news, which was slightly embarrassing, but I didn't care. Luckily, it was a slow news day."
The lost film was returned, saving the first-time director from having to reshoot critical scenes of the drama. It's due to be released in November.
the busy actor, whose next film is L.A. Confidential with Danny DeVito, will vacation in Europe when that film wraps up. Then he will take a hiatus from Hollywood and movies to produce and star in the play National Anthems in New York.
For the veteran Broadway trouper with credits including Lost in Yonkers and Long Day's Journey Into Night, there are no mixed feelings about returning to the stage.
"I'm so happy that I'm about to break with conventional wisdom, which is that I should keep doing movies, and come back and do this play that I adore very much," he said.
"It's easy to say yes, it's harder to say no," he said. "Because it's too easy to justify things you can do in this life that are wrong, just wrong."

Palestine, Israel push for peace
Leaders meet to discuss issue of coexistence
The Associated Press
EREZ CHECKPOINT, Gaza Strip — Israel dispelled some concerns about the future yesterday when its new foreign minister shook Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat's hand and called their meeting a push toward peace.
The two-hour exchange between David Levy and Arafat was the first high-level contact since Benjamin Netanyahu became Israeli prime minister.
But Netanyahu put a damper on some of the good will.
He said that he would only meet with Arafat if it were vital for Israel's security and said negotiations on a final peace agreement — interrupted by the May 29 Israeli elections — would have to wait until problems with the existing autonomy accord were cleared up.
"I think this is what we can hope to
achieve at this point," Netanyahu said in Jerusalem. "I don't think we should go beyond that. Let's achieve this goal, and then proceed step by step."
Still, the meeting was a turning point for Netanyahu's hard-line Likud Party, which has long demonized Arafat and criticized those who held talks with him.
"History. Who would have believed it?" said an Israeli TV commentator as the Levy-Arafat handshake was broadcast.
Former Cabinet minister Yossi Beilin, who conducted the secret negotiations with the Palestinians, said it was almost worth losing the elections to see the handshake.
"I began the Olso process, and never in my wildest dreams did I imagine that I would see David Levy shake hands with Yasser Arafat," he told Channel 1 television.
Arafat was cordial and relaxed at a news conference with Levy, in marked contrast to his downcast demeanor in the weeks following the defeat of Shimon Peres, his peace partner.
Arafat said he and Levy approached each other with open hearts.
"We shall work side-by-side in
"I think this is what we can hope to achieve at this point."

Israeli prime minister
order to support this relationship for the benefit of Israel and the Palestinian people," he said.
Arafat said he expected the remaining elements of the autonomy agreement, including a partial Israeli troop withdrawal from the West Bank town of Hebron, to be carried out very soon.
Levy did not refer to specific agreements, but profusely praised Arafat's openness and readiness to cooperate.
"I have no doubt that what we achieved today will give a push to the process that is meant to bring peace to Israel and the Palestinians," the foreign minister said.
Palestinian peace negotiator Saeb
Erakat, who attended the talks, said the two leaders decided to reactivate a high-level steering committee to deal with all aspects of the autonomy agreement that have not been carried out.
Both sides have long lists of broken promises.
Israel has complained that Arafat has not done enough to rein in Islamic militants and that his Palestinian Authority was operating illegally in disputed Jerusalem.
Levy demanded yesterday that Arafat stopped all government activities in east Jerusalem, which the Palestinians want to turn into a future capital. Erakat said Arafat reminded Levy of Peres' promise that Palestinian institutions established before the September 1993 autonomy agreement could remain.
The Palestinians have complained that Israel has failed to release Palestinian prisoners and establish a safe passage between the West Bank and Gaza.

Earlier, White House Chief of Staff Leon Panetta had said chemical leftovers had been found on bodies and debris from the plane, and investigators were focusing most closely on terrorism.
Officially, investigators have said they are not yet sure whether the explosion was caused by a bomb, a catastrophic mechanical failure or a missile.

FBI agents were checking into as many as 40 curious or unusual incidents at scores of marinas within reach of the TWA crash site, but another senior federal official in Washington characterized the effort as a normal part of the painstaking investigation.
Flight 800: No bomb traces found
By yesterday evening, searchers had not detected the plane's voice and data recorders.
The Associated Press
Tests on debris are continuing
EAST MORICHES, N.Y. — Divers descended from the Navy's best salvage ship yesterday and recovered more victims from the wreckage of TWA Flight 800, but officials acknowledged that nothing found so far in the debris or bodies shows traces of explosives.
Also, Pentagon analysts have found no sign on radar tapes or high-altitude photographs of a missile or anything else that might have brought down the jumbo jet, representative Kenneth Bacon said.
President Clinton, traveling in California, said that based on regular reports he's receiving, none of the evidence establishes a cause.
"Finding various traces of things may indicate that something happened and it may not, but right now the people we have looking at this have not drawn a firm conclusion that's been relayed to any of us." Clinton said.
scene initially suggested there might be chemical bomb residues on a piece of wing, but that machine is designed for only the roughest initial screening and is known to display false positives, sources told the Associated Press
"Nobody would rely on it. Less without the full testing," said a federal official in Washington, speaking on condition of anonymity. No traces of explosives have been confirmed in FBI lab tests of the wing fragment, other wreckage or bodies through yesterday evening.
Two new pieces of plane debris were shipped to the FBI laboratory yesterday, but it could take until tomorrow for sophisticated tests to determine whether or not they contain bomb residue.
Working over 14 target areas in a 3-by-4-mile grid mapped out by sonar-equipment, scores of divers continued to search for victims yesterday. Three more bodies were pulled up and divers believe 60 to 100 more are under the debris, New York Gov. George Pataki said.
The medical examiner's office said yesterday that remains of 108 people had been recovered. Of those, 78 have been positively identified. In an attempt to speed identification, blood samples were being taken from victims' relatives for DNA identification.
James Kallstrom, the assistant FBI director in charge of the investigation, said: "If this was a terrorist attack there's absolutely no doubt in my mind that we will know who did this and where they are."

"There's a very big chunk of plane on the floor and there are bodies caught within that wreckage," Pataki said.
and data recorders. Investigators were anxious for quick recovery of wreckage for two reasons: Clues might be washed away the longer the debris remains in the water and, if the plane was sabotaged, the saboteurs' trail is getting colder.
Minneapolis killer slays prostitutes
The Assqciated Press .
By the time police arrived Saturday, the man was gone — and officers discovered the latest victim of what they believe is a serial killer who has been preying on prostitutes, mutilating their bodies and setting them afire.
MINNEAPOLIS — In a secluded spot on the edge of a heavily wooded city park, a group of children came upon a man standing in the bushes with a gas can. He snapped at them to leave, and they scurried away as flames rose from the ground.
The latest victim, who had been beaten to death, was later identified as Keooudorn Phothisane, 21. Police say the killer may have thought Phothisane was a woman. He had been undergoing hormone therapy and was developing breasts, but had not undergone sex-change surgery.
The group of six children said the man who chased them from the park Saturday was a balding black man who was 6 feet tall, between 20 and 30 years old, with a goatee or Fu Manchu mustache, police said.
The spot where the body was found Saturday is sandwiched between a golf course and a quiet area of large, upper-middle-class homes, but is heavily wooded and undeveloped.
Barsness said investigators were focusing on known sex offenders living near Theodore Wirth Park, a 957-acre expanse of wooded, rolling hills on the city's middle-class western edge.
Mike Hurley, an attendant at the golf clubhouse a few blocks away, said the park would be an easy place to dispose of a body unnoticed.
Police said 43-year-old Deborah LaVoie was found June 3 in the woods about a half-mile away. On June 19, Avis Warfield, 36, was found in bushes about 12 blocks outside the park.
"This is probably the most secluded area in Minneapolis I've found," Hurley said.
All three victims had numerous prostitution convictions and probably used and dealt drugs, police Lt. Dale Barsness said yesterday.
"It's a convenience to him and we think he probably lives not far away," Barsness said.
The three killings brought the number of homicides in Minneapolis this year to 51 as of yesterday. The city set a record last year with 97 homicides.
