Last year. 362,004 people nationwide died of complications of AIDS and 581,429 new cases of AIDS were reported, according to the Centers for Disease Control. According to the Watkins Health Center, one in every KU 500 students is HIV positive. Day. In an attempt to educate the public about AIDS and remember those who have died because of the disease, people will gather today to commemorate the 10th annual World AIDS This year's theme is "Give Children Hope in a World with AIDS." The theme stems from the fact that more 1.5 million children world-wide had been infected with AIDS as of 1995. The World Health Organization estimates that by the year 2000, that number will rise to 5 million. Kansas does not keep track of how many people have been infected with HIV, but it does keep numbers on how many AIDS cases have been diagnosed and on how many people have died of complications of AIDS, sald April Ramos, Douglas County AIDS Project director. There have been 76 reported cases of AIDS in Douglas County, Jefferson County and Franklin County since 1981. The Douglas County AIDS Project has served 39 AIDS patients in that time, and it had 15 new patients in the first 9 months of this year, Ramos said. In honor of the World AIDS Day, the United Methodist Kansas Area AIDS Taskforce will have a memorial service at 7:30 tonight at the Centenary Methodist Church, Fourth and Elm streets. "It is a service of blessing and remembrance," said Diane Stiles, a Douglas County AIDS Project volunteer. "It's an ecumenical interface service with short speakers from a variety of ethnic and religious groups. People will light candles in memory of someone who has died of AIDS." The Douglas County AIDS Project, KU Queers and Allies and the Center for Peer Health Promotions at Watkins Health Center will have information tables set up at the Kansas Union today to promote awareness of the disease. "We are promoting World AIDS Day with an info table in Watkins and at the Union," said Amy Foppe, Lawrence senior and coordinator for the Center for Peer Health Promotions. "We will provide information dealing with HIV and AIDS, and red ribbons will be passed out for people to wear to support World AIDS Day." The Spencer Museum of Art will be accepting quilt panels for the AIDS quilt at 12:30 p.m. tomorrow. The event was planned for today, but the museum is not open on Mondays, Ramos said. Poster exhibit reminder that AIDS epidemic a world problem brain ASE AIDES together Les murs des du SIQA ne montrent pas fastement d'une AIDE MENAGERE. Comme sa au moins de me S'ENNUIENT PAS. AIDES By Ann Premer apremer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer In recognition of World AIDS Day, a local art collector is exhibiting his collection of AIDS-awareness posters today at Art-Frames. 912 Illinois St. Lawrence resident Rich Crank's exhibit, "Past the Compass," features 32 posters from around the world that promote safe sex and AIDS acceptance and awareness. The exhibit will be on display from 10 a.m. until 8:30 p.m. today. At 7:30 there will be a reception and informal discussion. Crank, who is a librarian at Anschutz Science Library, said that he began collecting the posters in 1993 after a friend died from complications of AIDS. Rich Crank works on an exhibit of AIDS posters for World AIDS Day. The posters are from Crank's personal collection. They will be on display from 10 a.m. until 8:30 p.m. today at ArtFrames, 912 Illinois St.. Photo by GR Gordon-Ross/KANSAN "This was something I could do to get the message out to people and to remind them to stay safe," Crank said. "I think the message isn't there enough." In 1994, Crank first displayed a collection of 25 posters at ArtFrames. Since then his collection has grown to more than 100 posters, and he has had two exhibitions at the University of Kansas, one in the Kansas Union Gallery and one at the Multicultural Resource Center. The majority of the posters for this exhibit are foreign. The exhibit includes posters from France, Germany, Mexico, Japan and Sweden. He said that he had obtained his posters through AIDS organizations and friends. Crank said he had a variety of posters but that he tried to find ones that addressed gay men's issues. He said that he also was trying to find posters that dealt with the rising infection rate of minority women. "I think it's important for people to realize that it's an international problem." Crank said. See POSTER on page 3A Infection rates do not discriminate By Ryan Koerner rkoerner@kansan.com Kansan staff writer After 17 years, the AIDS epidemic has not gone away. In fact, more than 30 million people worldwide are infected with AIDS, or have contracted HIV. KU Guerses and Allies wants to make sure that fact is understood. "People sort of look at it as a gay disease and think that we should be the ones to do something," said Corrina Beck, Queers and Allies member and Kansas City, Mo., junior. "We totally disagree with that, but we think something needs to be done." In observance of World AIDS Day, Queers and Allies will operate an information table in the lobby of the Kansas Union today to distribute condoms and AIDS information. At 1 p.m. the group will hold a candelight vigil at Wescoe Beach. The vigil will include a moment of silence at 1:17 p.m., when the Campanile will chime 17 times in observance of each year of the AIDS epidemic. "It will be a moment of silence and a moment of mourning," Beck said. "Not only that, but also we want the whole day to be a celebration of people who are living with AIDS." It is easy to forget that people don't just die of complications of AIDS—they also live with it, Beck said. "It can be a full and wonderful life. World AIDS Day is a celebration of that life," she said. Kevin King, Queers and Allies publicity co-chairman, said it was important for the group to take an active role in today's events. "The lesbiagiatrans community has been greatly impacted by the whole AIDS epidemic," said King, Topea senior. "It has now become a greater concern than it was before to the heterosexual population. As long as people are suffering from this particular disease, we want to make sure that we, at the very least, observe it." King said the observation of the day, which is in its 10th year AIDS facts One in every 500 KU students is HIV positive. 362,004 people died of complications of AIDS in the U.S. last year. 581,429 new AIDS cases were reported in the U.S. last year. AIDS is the leading cause of death among men ages 25 to 44. It is the third leading cause of death among women in the same age group It is the sixth leading cause of death for people between 15 and 24. One in every four new cases of HIV infections occur in people under age 22. Half of all new HIV infections occur in people under the age of 25. HIV is spreading almost six times more quickly among women than among men. American women with AIDS die 33 percent faster than men with AIDS. 3,000 women are infected with HIV each day; 500 women die from AIDS complications each day. Worldwide, women are the fastest-growing group of new HIV infections. By the year 2000,15 million women will be infected with HIV. Sources: Watkins Memorial Health Center, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, World Health Organization should remind people that the advances in HIV and AIDS treatment have not come close to eliminating the disease. "What we want to accomplish is a heightened awareness and a reminder to everyone that even with all the steps that we are making and the progress with treating the disease, it is still very much a significant factor in everyone's life," King said. "Everyone should continue to realize that."

By Corrie Moore cmore@kansas.com Konpson staff writer Duane Tenpenny, Topeka resident, died at the scene. His funeral was last Saturday in Topeka. The KPL Lawrence Energy Center explosion left Guy, 57, and Charles Price, a 35-year-old resident of Kansas City, Mo., with burns covering 90 percent of their bodies. Guy and Price were flown by helicopter Monday to the Med Center. Price remains at the Med Center in critical condition. Danny Bolden, Lawrence resident, was treated at Lawrence Memorial Hospital for smoke inhalation and was released last Monday. Guy was a maintenance coordinator and had worked for KPL for 36 years. The explosion occurred at 4:43 p.m. Monday during maintenance work on a 4,160-volt breaker. An electrical failure caused the explosion and fire, said George Norton, KPL manager of public information. Guy's funeral will be at 1 p.m. Thursday at the Warren-McElwain Mortuary in Lawrence. Guy, Tenpenny and Price were completing maintenance work on the volt breaker. Norton said that KPL workers were saddened by the event but were continuing to do their jobs. The sheriff's office, Douglas County rural fire department and KPL still are investigating the incident. Norton said that there was no new information about the cause of the explosion. "The investigation of the incident continues and continued through the holiday weekend," he said. Steve Johnson, KPL division manager, said that the coal-fired plant had never had an explosion such as this before.

NATIONAL WASHINGTON: Top U.S. and U.N. officials toned down angry rhetoric against Baghdad yesterday, speaking not of air strikes or Iraq human shields but of using diplomacy to resolve a dispute with Saddam Hussein about weapons inspections and of easing hunger in Iraq. NEW YORK: Shoppers packed the nation's stores and malls in the first days of the holiday buying season, but many went straight for sale racks and bought only when the price was right. WASHINGTON: Some economists suggest deflation may be reappearing after a six decade absence, but this may not be good news for consumers. INTERNATIONAL KYOTO, Japan: The chief scientist responsible for alerting the world to global warming said yesterday the Clinton administration's intentions may be good, but its ideas for dealing with the threat fall short of what is needed. STATE Tax cuts expected to pass Kansas Legislature easily TOPEKA — The Legislature appears likely to approve tax cuts next year worth between $125 million and $150 million. A package in that range would allow a mix of sales, income, business and other tax breaks. It also would permit lawmakers to increase spending for public schools and other items. Legislators expect tax relief to be among the biggest issues after the 1998 session convenes in January. Tax issues are tied to spending issues, because the more money legislators commit to programs, the smaller the tax cuts they can make. Moderate Republicans and Democrats decided the best tack would be to determine what they want to spend and draft a tax package to fit the budget, rather than draft a tax package and make the budget fit. "I'm optimistic that we can come together early in the session on a package," said Senate President Dick Bond, R-Overland Park. The state's strong economy continues to pump money into the state treasury, and lawmakers are expected to open the session with a bulge in revenues of about $400 million. The money represents unanticipated tax revenues the state collected before its 1997 budget year ended June 30 and rosy forecasts for tax collections during its current and 1999 budget years. Gov. Bill Graves and his staff have suggested tax cuts of about $125 million, while moderate Republicans and Democrats would go higher. Bond's figure is $150 million. NATIONAL U.S. proposes diplomacy to solve dispute with Iraq WASHINGTON — Top U.S. and U.N. officials toned down angry rhetoric against Baghdad yesterday, speaking not of air strikes or Iraqi human shields but of using diplomacy to resolve a dispute with Saddam Hussein about weapons inspections and of easing hunger in Iraq. As Iraqi demonstrators accused the West of starving Iraq's children, Ambassador Bill Richardson, the U.S. envy to the United Nations, and U.N. Secretary General Kofi Annan both voiced a willingness to improve the flow of food and medicine to Baghdad as soon as this week. The powerful U.S. force patrolling the Gulf will remain as long as President Clinton considers it necessary, Richardson said. But he also made it clear that the U.S. priority is keeping the dispute at a diplomatic level, even if it means putting up with temporary Iraqi obstructionism. "We're not going to put any artificial deadlines," Richardson said on NBC's "Meet the Press." "Our policy has been steady. We want diplomacy to work." Richardson said the Clinton administration was willing to consider boosting the food and medicine flowing to Iraq through a program that allows the Baghdad government to sell oil for humanitarian supplies. And he said that decision would have nothing to do with Saddam's opposition to allowing a U.N. weapons team to inspect scores of presidential palaces for evidence of Iraqi chemical, biological and nuclear weapons programs. NEW YORK — Shoppers packed the nation's stores and malls during the first days of the holiday buying season, but many went straight for sale rack and bought only when the price was right. Trends have changed for holiday shopping Stores that offered big discounts and low prices fared best during the Thanksgiving weekend, retailers said yesterday. "Christmas time is no different than the rest of the year," said Kurt Barnard, a retail consultant and president of Barnard's Retail Trend Report. "Shoppers want to get more for their money, so they favor stores that offer the best prices." Many stores unlocked their doors before dawn Friday, while others stayed open 24 hours. Some offered extra discounts to early morning arrivals—as much as 50 percent. Despite mediocre sales during much of the year, retailers are optimistic about the Christmas season. But many are finding they must go to great lengths to lure shoppers. "The big deals offered early Friday drove in shopers," said Ken Volk, marketing director for mall developer Simon DeBartolo Group in the New York City area. "We had hundreds of people on line at many of our malls before 7 a.m." Discounters and moderately priced department stores like Wal-Mart, Target and Sears drew flocks of consumers with special promotions, good prices and wide selections of merchandise. Many stores reported slower sales as the weekend progressed, with more people browsing than buying. Shoppers used to make most of their holiday purchases during Thanksgiving weekend, but now more favor the days before Christmas, when stores slash prices to clear out inventories. For many stores, the trend toward a later shopping season is worrisome following a less-than-stellar 1997 and disappointments the last two holiday seasons. Retailers count upon the holidays for about half their annual sales and profits. Deflation threatens U.S. as Asia's woes continue WASHINGTON — Raldo Capitani's father sold Italian bread door-to-door during the Depression in Highland Park, Ill., near Chicago: 10 cents for a 1-pound loaf, 12 cents for a pound and a half. His earnings didn't amount to much, but they fed a family of four. And the one thing the family didn't have to worry about during those hardest of hard times was rising prices. Prices, in fact, were falling. Economists call the phenomenon deflation, and they're debating whether it's on Deflation may sound good to consumers with memories of skyrocketing prices during the 1970s and early 1980s. But, as Capitania, a 77-year-old retiree in Port St. Lucie, Fla., explained, there was a downside: declining wages and high unemployment. "Everything was relative. If you paid a dime for a loaf of bread, you had to work hard for that dime," he said. "There were a lot of people ... who got their salary slashed, and they had to take it or leave it. There was always someone waiting in the wings who was ready and willing to take your job." the verge of reappearing after a six- decade absence. Why are economists thinking about deflation when the unemployment rate, at 4.7 percent, is at a 24-year low and consumer confidence is near a 28-year high? The answer is Asia. Financial crises are halting once red-hot economies in Thailand, Indonesia and South Korea. Sharp currency devaluations mean affected countries will be hard-pressed to buy U.S. goods. Their own goods will sell cheaply when purchased with strong dollars. That, in turn, puts pressure on U.S. manufacturers to cut prices or lose sales. Computer makers have coped with deflation for years. But the pressure is spreading. New car prices were down 0.6 percent last month from a year ago. "If this situation is allowed to spread and worsen and fester, then the consequences will be very dire," said economist Richard Berner of Mellon Bank in Pittsburgh. Inflation, after hitting a post-World War II high of 13 percent in 1979, is running at a 32-year low of about 2 percent this year. So, it wouldn't take much to transform disinflation — progressively smaller price increases — into declining prices. INTERNATIONAL Global warming scientist denounces U.S. solution KYOTO, Japan — The chief scientist responsible for alerting the world to global warming said yesterday the Clinton administration's intentions may be good, but its ideas for dealing with the threat fall short of what's needed. "The U.S. proposal is a positive step in the right direction but inadequate — certainly in the long term, maybe even in the short ten. $ \alpha. $ " Bert Bolin said. The Swedish climate scientist, in an interview the eve of final negotiations for an international accord to combat global warming, also noted that British climatologists last week projected 1997 will end up as the planet's warmest year in more than a century of record keeping outgoing 1997. This are the kind of data Bolin and his colleagues use to press their case that climate change is imminent. Global warming is not something you can prove, he said. "You try to collect evidence and thereby a picture emerges." he said. Bolin, 72, recently stepped down after nine years as chairman of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, a U.N-sponsored network of hundreds of climate scientists that concluded, in a pivotal 1995 report, human activities were warming the atmosphere, principally through the burning of coal, oil and gas. Carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases accumulating in the atmosphere allow sunligi:t through but trap heat Earth emits back toward space. The panel projected continued emissions at current rates would raise average temperatures by up to 6 degrees Fahrenheit by 2100, disrupting climate patterns and raising ocean levels up to three feet through heat expansion. Their findings spurred governments to try to negotiate legally bindings reductions in greenhouse gas emissions by industrial nations. The targets are to be incorporated in a protocol to the 1992 Climate Change Treaty. The Associated Press Some have proposed cutting emissions by as much as 20 percent below their 1990 levels by 2005. The United States proposed a low end plan for the Kyoto talks: reducing emissions to, but not below, 1990 levels by 2012.

It wasn't a brawl; it was Swing Set. Every Sunday night at the Bottleneck, 737 New Hampshire St., couples and singles listen to disc Jockeys Skinny D and June Bug spin jump, jive, boogie woogle and dance. Swing Set began in January of this year. "It started out real slow, but now it's as busy as any show," said Neil Downs, Bottleneck employee. "Everybody gets all dressed up and comes out to have a good time." The idea was originated by Lawrence resident Doug Richards, a.k.a. SkinnyD. "I saw it happening in different places across the country," Richards said. "Since we used to be closed on Sunday, it seemed like a natural night to do it." Richards said when the Bottleneck first began Swing Set, the only advertising for it was a few posters. Now, the Bottleneck advertisés Swing Set in Pitch Weekly and has the support of word-of-mouth advertising. "It's gotten a lot better in the last six months, but we've always gotten at least a hundred people every week." he said. Many people go to the show in formal wear. The men wear 1940's style jackets and ties and the women wear dresses. However, not everyone is so sharply dressed. "It's not required or anything," Richards said. Although one must enlist a partner to actively participate, Swing Set is not only for couples. "Some people come with dates, others just ask people to dance," said Amanda Haase, Bottleneck bartender. "Everybody dances. There's a lot of energy in the room." Swing Set sometimes incorporates live music. "Over the past couple of months we've done a couple of shows where we present swing and rockabilly bands," Richards said. "There are also a couple of local bands who are starting to play swing so we've been hooking them on and off." Swing Set has now-and-agains, newcomers and regulars. "There are some regular couples who come in here who are just incredible dancers," Richards said. Richards also said that when he first came up with the idea for the event, which has regular crowds of 200 participants, people laughed at him. They're still laughing as they dance around the floor, spin and boogie. AIDS from page 1A Both King and Beck said it was important to remember that AIDS doesn't discriminate. "I think it is unfortunate that there are people who still believe it is a gay disease," King said. "It makes it much easier for them to dismiss it and the hardship it causes people. It is really sad because if you put it in their terms, they are thinking: 'It's not my group that is affected by that.'" King said he was thankful that AIDS was becoming increasingly more of an issue for the heterosexual population. If heterosexuals continue to say it is not a problem for their particular orientation, it will only get worse, he said. POSTER from page 1A Fred Sack, owner of Art- Frames, said the gallery was holding the exhibit to help people feel more comfortable with safe-sex issues and to increase AIDS awareness. "It reminds people that it's still out there." Sack said. OAKS will have a brown bag lunch from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. tomorrow in Alcove E, Kansas Union and Wednesday in Alcove A. Contact Susan Randall. 864-7317. Sack said many of the posters were designed for subway stations and bars. ON CAMPUS "We see them a little out of context," he said.

Greenbaum answered questions and gave away free mouse pads during Geeks on Wheels' "Ask a Geek" day Saturday. Photo by Augustus Anthony Piazza/KANSAN When David Greenbaum goes on a consultation, he takes a black case with him like a physician. But instead of a stethoscope, a thermometer and tongue depressors, his case contains computer catalogs, cables and other computer-related items. Greenbaum is the director for new ventures at Geeks On Wheels. "When things go well, it's such a rewarding job." Greenbaum said. The hub of Geeks On Wheels is an office at the "Lawrence Journal-World" building, 609 New Hampshire St. When the company opened in May 1996, it was purely experimental. Dan Simons, director of new media enterprises for the World Co., created the business when he needed help with his own computer and wished he had a smart friend that could come and help him at home. The company has grown significantly since May. The company took 60 to 70 calls per month last year. This year it has been receiving 170 to 200 calls a month. Greenbaum was the company's first full-time employee. "I was brought in to open up additional markets, but I've quickly become the 'head geek," Greenbaum said. Geeks On Wheels plans to expand into 20 markets in the next nine months, including each of the cities where Big 12 schools are located. But students who use the service might find it expensive. Geeks charges $45 for the first hour and $22.50 for each additional half hour. During consultations, Geeks' technicians help with upgrades, preventative maintenance and connections to the Internet. They also advise customers about buying new equipment. Jonathan Harclerode, Emporia sophomore and one of Geeks' part-time employees, said he enjoyed helping people figure out computer problems. "As long as I'm solving problems, I'll be happy," Harclerode said. Temporary jobs open during break By Carrie Patton Special to the Kansan With holiday expenses and spring tuition burdening their pocketbooks, many KU students are looking for ways to make a fast buck during the semester break. Temporary employment provides a flexible, low-commitment way to earn money and stay busy while living at home during the holidays, said those in the business. One option for students seeking jobs during break is to work for a former employer. Scott Grigsby, Shawnee senior, said he planned to return to his summer job silk-screening T-shirts. He said he would work about 20 hours a week for a graphics company near his home. Grigsby said his earnings would pay for holiday gift purchases on his credit cards. Carol Rau, office service representative at Manpower Temporary Services, 211 E. Eighth St., said that temporary employment was a popular option for students between semesters. "We see quite a lot of people who come in just to work over the break," she said. "A lot of times we have people who want to work some extra hours when school is not in session." Rau said Manpower placed students in positions ranging from office and clerical services to light industrial work. She said temporary workers could be in high demand during the holidays because many employees go on vacation and leave companies short-handed. "We'll place a temp in an office to cover the phones and do whatever is needed while the regular employee is out on vacation," she said. Rau said that working as a temporary employee offered college students more flexibility than they would find in most permanent jobs. "They only have to commit to the assignments that they want to do," she said. "This allows temporary employees to schedule work around family commitments." Grigsby said money was not the only motivation for working during the break. He also wanted to preserve family harmony while living at home. "I want to get out of the house because my parents will gripe if I just sit around for a month and don't work," he said. Nobody Does Spring Break Better!

The Kansas City Chiefs dismantled the NFL's top-rated defense yesterday and handed the 49ers a 44-9 loss. It was San Francisco's worst regular-season defeat since a 45-3 loss to Detroit in 1967. KC The Chiefs (10-3), hoping to overtake Denver for the AFC West lead, stunned the 48ers (11-2) by grabbing a 28-6 halftime lead. Rich Gannon threw three touchdown passes, and Marcus Allen had another on a halfback option. It was the first time the Chiefs had four touchdowns passes in a game since December 1983 against San Diego. The 49ers have failed to score a touchdown in a game twice since 1991 — in both of this season's losses. They fell in the season opener at Tampa Bay 13-6 and then built their record largely on victories against the league's lesser teams. The Chiefs have an easier schedule than the Broncos. The Broncos must travel to Pittsburgh and San Francisco, while the Chiefs have two of their last three at home. Kansas City led 14-3 after a 2-yard touchdown pass from Gannon to Tony Gonzalez. Gonzalez then swept past Zack Bronson on the right side and blocked a punt by Tommy Thompson, returning the ball 12 yards to the 3-yard line. Allen scored on the next play. minutes later, the Chiefs drove 57 yards. Allen, the short-yardage specialist, took a handoff and drifted right, then flipped a 1-yard touchdown pass to Ted Popon, who was playing his first game since suffering a concussion on Nov. 3. After Pellom McDaniels sacked Steve Young for a 9-yard loss a few Allen's sixth career touchdown pass and second this season made it 28-3 with 26 seconds left in the half. The score came after Darnell Walker was called for pass interference on Gonzalez in the end zone, giving the Chiefs a first down at the 1-yard line. Gary Anderson made two field goals from 33 yards — one on the last play of the half and one from 40 — for the 49ers. Kansas City also scored on Andre Rison's 6-yard reception in the first quarter and his 29-yarder with 12:40 to play. With 8:31 to play, Terry Kirby was tackled in the end zone by Joe Phillips and Donnie Edwards for a safety. Mark McMillian intercepted Jeff Brohm's pass and returned it 12 yards for the Chiefs' final touchdown. Brohm had replaced Young just before the safety.

Downtown The Etc. Shop Longhorns looking for new coach The Associated Press AUSTIN, Texas - Texas' football coaching job comes with a high degree of uncertainty. Fred Akers won 73 percent of his games in 10 seasons and was fired after his first losing season in 1986. David McWilliams, who played for Akers' predecessor, Darrell Royal, put Texas in the top 5 in 1990 and then was fired after a 5-6 season in 1991. John Mackovic won or shared three conference titles in six years, improved football graduation rates and was fired Saturday after his first losing season. Today Texas will convene its search committee for a new coach with hopes of finding Mackovic's successor in the next two weeks. Top candidates include Northwestern's Gary Barnett, Mack Brown of North Carolina, Butch Davis of Miami, Tommy Tuberville of Mississippi and Phillip Fulmer of Tennessee. Thomas Hicks, a Texas regent who owns the NHL Dallas Stars, said yesterday he hoped the committee would have the list narrowed by the end of the week. "Until official calls are made and you go through the protocol, it's hard to tell what a coach's interest is," Hicks said. "They may act interested if someone is just asking them offhand. But we should know by the middle of the week who is serious." Hicks praised Mackovic for his championships, for improving recruiting and for increased graduation rates. But he said Mackovic's downfall was failing to improve the Longhorns' defense and failing to motivate the team. "We've become one of the worst defensive teams in the nation over a long period of time," Hicks said. "He was encouraged to do something about that, and he was unable to do so. "The on-field leadership was very erratic. When a team loses 66-3 against a team (UCLA) it's favored to beat, it shows for whatever reason the team chose to quit on that day. They did that a half-dozen times while he was coach, and that's unacceptable. Texas athletic director DeLoss Dodds said although the Longhorns' coach would face a lot of pressure, it would be a rewarding position for the right candidate. "I think there are coaches who want this job," he said. "It's a tough job, but it's a place where I think we can have a top-10 program year in and year out."

Chenowith posted a double-double in his first collegiate game with 15 points and 12 rebounds against Rice. He also had five blocked shots in that game. He averaged 12 points and nine rebounds in those three games and also had eight blocked shots. His play helped Kansas reach the Chase Preseason NIT semifinals at Madison Square Garden in New York City. Volleyball season ends; eight win academic honors The final weekend of Kansas volleyball in Allen Field House was much like the season as a whole. The Jayhawks continued their dominance of Iowa State this season by defeating the Cyclones 15-19, 15-2, 15-7 Friday. Senior middle blocker Maggie Mohrfeld led Kansas with 13 kills. Sophomore outside hitter Mary Beth Albrecht had 11 kills. Kansas lost a five-game match on Saturday to the visiting Missouri Tigers 8-15, 15-2, 15-10, 13-15, 18-20. The Jayhawks were led by Albrecht, who tied a season high with 19 kills. Senior right-side hitter Kendra Kahler recorded 12 kills and 13 digs in her final match as a Jayhawk. Kansas ended the season with a 9-24 record. The Jayhawks were 2-18 in the Big 12 Conference. Both victories came against Iowa State. Kansas posted a 10-24 record in 1996. including a 4-16 mark in the Big 12. Four Jayhawks volleyball players were named to the first team of the academic All-Big 12 Team; senior defensive specialist Stephanie Blackwell, Kahler, Mohrfield and sophomore middle blocker Amanda Reves. Four Kansas players were named to the honorable mention academic squad: sophomore defensive specialist Kristi Kilyabu, sophomore middle blocker Anne Kreimer, junior setter Laura Rohde and senior setter Tiffany Sennett. The Big 12 honored 65 volleyball players on its academic teams. The players on the first team are letterwinners with at least a 3.2 grade point average. The honorable mention squad recognizes regulars with GPAs between 3.0 and 3.19. Bobby Randall, Kansas head baseball coach, announced Wednesday that eight student-athletes had signed national letters of intent to play for the Jayhawks. ("Assistant coach) Mike Bard, who coordinated all of the recruiting, really worked his tail off," Randall said. "We signed a group of good athletes, good students — just a group of good men. This is a great foundation for years to come." The recruits include three players from Kansas, two of whom are from the Lawrence area. Jay Brooks is a first baseman from Baldwin. Jeff Davis is a pitcher from Lawrence, and Ryan Schmidt is a pitcher from Valley Center who also played for Barton County Community College. Colorado natives include Dan Olson, a pitcher/outfielder from Loveland, Colo., and Matt Van Alsbury, a outfielder from Fort Collins, Colo. Lincoln, Neb., native Lukas McKnight, a catcher from Libertyville, Ill., and Matt Webb, an outfielder from Bedford, Texas, complete the list of Javhawk recruits. Corey Harrington, a pitcher/shortstop also signed. "We think the student athletes coming in will be able to contribute right away," Randall said. "How good of a class this really is, though, only time will tell. But we are really pleased." Kansan staff reports Athletes show the money on Forbes earnings list NEW YORK — Michael Jordan is the richest athlete in the world, regaining the top spot on the Forbes list for the fifth time in six years and displacing Mike Tyson at No.1 Jordan will earn $78.3 million in 1997, the magazine estimated, garnering $31.3 million from the Chicago Bulls and $47 million from endorsements and other income. In announcing its Super-40 list, Forbes put heavyweight champion Evander Holyfield in second place at $54.3 million, earning $53 million in prize money and $1.3 million in endorsements.

NIT champs hungry for Arizona Jayhawks win preseason bout; Wildcats loom By Tommy Gallagher tgallogher@kansan.com Associate sports editor The Kansas men's basketball team won the Chase Preseason NIT last week in New York City, but some problems linger as the team prepares for No.1 Arizona Tuesday night. The Jayhawks struggled in their dramatic 90-88 overtime win against Arizona State on Wednesday night in the semifinals. Kansas committed a season-high 27 turnovers, including 17 in the first half. And on defense, Arizona State shot 50 percent from the floor, recording the highest point total against the Jayhawks this season. Forward Paul Pierce scored 28 points and nine rebounds, and forward Raef LaFrentz had 18 points and nine rebounds. Guard Billy Thomas had 19 points, including the game-winning shot in overtime. His shot, launched from near the NBA three-point line, bounced off the front of the rim to the top of the backboard and into the basket. Coach Roy Williams said the Jayhawks needed to guard better against turnovers. "Those turnovers were not against a press," Williams said after the game. "Those were against a simple zone defense. There's no excuse for what happened on offense tonight." FLORIDA STATE (4-1) The Jayhawks improved on defense in their 73-58 win against Florida State in the championship game, but the offense again had some problems. Kansas trailed 28-20 at halftime, which matched the worst output in one half in Greer 4-16 2-2 11, Jackson 7-12 1-5 15, Louis 3-10 0-6, Baker 4-8 2-2 12, Thompson son 2-13 0-1 5, Shabazz 2-6 1-3 15, Hale 2-4 0-0 4, Mulligan 0-0 0-0 0, Chlebek 0-0 0-0.

Fouled out: Jackson, Pugh. Rebounds: Florida St. 44 (Thompson 9), Kansas 51 (Pierce 17). Assists: Florida St. 17 (Thompson 6), Kansas 11 (LaFrentz, Robert- son 3). Total fouls: Florida St., 21, Kansas 17. A: 12, 24.5 the Williams era. The Jayhawks scored 20 points in one half in three other games, all of which were against Oklahoma State. Pierce said the Jayhawks were not executing at a top level. "You were looking at a team that we don't want to be playing like," Pierce said. "It's surprising that we came out so tentative." The Jayhawks shot 38.7 percent from the floor, but they held the Seminoles to 34.8 percent. Both percentage were season lows for Kansas. Thomas said the team could not afford to start slow and come from behind against Arizona. "The last two games, we've been slow starting in the first half," Thomas said. "We've got to come up with a way to make sure we come out with the same attention at the beginning that we have in the second half." Pierce won the NIT's Most Valuable Player award, averaging 20.2 points, 11 rebounds and 2.2 assists in the tournament. He had 23 points and a career-high 17 rebounds in the title game. Pierce and LaFrentz made the all-tournament team, along with Jeremy Veal of Arizona State. Richard Hamilton of Connecticut and Randall Jackson of Florida State. Now 6-0, the Jayhawks will play the Arizona Wildcats Tuesday in the DirectTV Great Eight at the United Center in Chicago. The Wildcats are No. 1 but are expected to drop in the polls today after a 95-87 loss to No. 3 Duke in the Maui Invitational Wednesday night. Some information was contributed by The Associated Press. KYUNKS 34 Kansas guard Lynn Pride grab a rebound against Athletes in Action Nov. 18 in Allen Field House. Pride has scored in double figures in all of the Jayhawks' games this season and has more than 200 rebounds in her career. Photo by Steve Puppe/KANSAN Kansas women finish third Kansan staff report The Kansas women's basketball team won third place in the Prairie Lights/Hawkeye Classic yesterday with a 79-66 defeat of the University of California State Northridge in Iowa City, Iowa. Forward Nikki White joined two other freshmen in the Kansas starting lineup for the first time this season, replacing Nakia Sanford. Forward Jaclyn Johnson and point guard Jennifer Jackson had started all of Kansas' previous regular season games. The Jayhawks led the entire game and had a 23- point advantage with 19:01 remaining in the game. Cal State Northridge went on two runs during the second half and pulled within 10 points. But Kansas' season-high output of 79 points gave them the win and a 3-1 record for the season. The Jayhawks lost their first game of the season to Washington 75-64 on Saturday in the first round of the Classic. "I think it took a lot of heart to come back after yesterday's disappointing loss," Coach Marian Washington said after the game. "We did a better job in the first half, but our fatigue really showed, and we let up and let them back into it in the second half." Four Jayhawks recorded double figures in points, led by Jackson with 18 and guard Shandy Robbins with 15. Forward Lynn Pride and guard Suzi Raymant scored 14 and 12 points respectively. Robbins came off the bench and made two of three three-point attempts. She accounted for 15 of Kansas' 33 points off the bench. "We got some quality minutes from the bench today but not yesterday vs. Washington," Washington said.

Pre-Holidays happy for intramural players By Sara Anderson sports@kansan.com Special to the Kansan By Sara Anderson Kansas' basketball season may be in full swing, but the intramural basketball program is just starting to heat up. The Pre-Holiday Basketball Tournament begins today and runs until Dec. 9. The single-elimination tournament has 72 teams divided into men's, women's and co-rec divisions. "We have the tournament every year and are looking forward to it," said Jason Krone, intramural director. "It gives us a chance to get everyone excited about basketball and gives our officials a chance for some experience too." Krone said that the number of teams participating in the tournament had stayed constant with about 70 to 75 entering each year. "We always have a good number of teams," he said. "I think that sometimes people miss the sign-ups for this tournament, and it reminds them about the regular season." "I like the tournament because it gives you a taste of playing Erin Mullins, Springfield, Mo. junior, said the tournament gave students a chance to play before the regular season began.

At his first faculty convocation, Chancellor Robert Hemenway set a goal of increasing the number of minority students to 10 percent of the incoming freshman class. Two years later, the University has achieved only part of its minority recruiting goals. In Fall 1996, 350 students, or 9.6 percent of the freshmen, indicated that they were American Indian, Asian, Black or Hispanic. This fall, the number increased to 374 students, but minorities still made up 9.6 percent of the freshman class. "We are heading in the right direction," he said. "Everything is geared toward increasing numbers, but an institution this size must produce better numbers." Minority enrollment at the University rose from 2,639 students in Fall 1996 to 2,688 students in Fall 1997, an increase from 9.6 percent to 9.75 percent. The number of minority students enrolled is not high enough, said Alan Cerveny, director of admissions. When compared with other Big 12 Conference schools, the University ranked sixth in total minority enrollment and ninth in the percentage of minorities in the student body. The University of Texas at Austin led both categories with 13,316 minority students, or 27.74 percent of the student body. The University also ranked low among its peer institutions, which are the University of Colorado, the University of Iowa, the University of North Carolina, the University of Oklahoma and the University of Oregon. The University of Kansas ranked fourth in total minority enrollment, and only the University of Iowa had a lower percentage of minorities in its student population—9.5 percent. Hemenway said the University had to bring more minorities to campus in order to represent the state. The University, however, does not compare well with national statistics. According to the U.S. Statistical Abstract, in 1995 the United States was 0.73 percent American Indian, 3.32 percent Asian, 12 percent Black, 10.3 percent Hispanic and 73.65 percent white. "To me the issue is not diversity, it's democracy," Hemenway said. "The University of Kansas is a public university, and as a public university it ought to be representative of the society that surrounds it." This fall, the University's enrollment is 0.95 percent American Indian, 3.4 percent Asian, 3 percent Black and 2.38 percent Hispanic. The University almost represents Kansas. According to 1990 U.S. Census data, 9.9 percent of Kansans indicated that they were minorities. For the University to reach Hemenway's goal, the number of minority students would Who's KU? Alan Cerveny director of admissions diversity on campus First in a three-day series "It is difficult to convince students that this University is the place for them when they come here, look around and wonder, 'Why would I want to enter into an environment where I would be in the minority?'" In light of recent discussions to require a three-credit U.S. Cultural Diversity class in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, the "Kansan" staff decided that it would be timely and appropriate to take an in-depth look at diversity at the University. cult to define diversity. Diversity is about sexual orientation, religion, political viewpoints and cultural traditions. It is about coming from Chicago vs. coming from a small Western Kansas town. When writing about as broad a concept as diversity, some things are inevitably omitted. We at the "Kansan" acknowledge that there are important aspects of diversity that will not be addressed. Unfortunately, it is difficult to define diversity. Despite diversity's many facets, diversity discussions often center on racial issues in the United States and at the University. For this reason, the "Kansan" decided to focus on race in the series. have to better approach the levels of minorities in society. "Kansas University should be a university where all stakeholders of the democracy we live in are represented and have an opportunity to participate." Hemenway said. Representatives of the admissions office visit communities across the state and region in an attempt to attract a diverse student population. One of the students attracted to the University through that process was Malik Abdul-Aziz The recruiting experience was so positive that he didn't know what the negative or more challenging aspects of the University were until he actually enrolled and began attending, he said. The Kansas City, Kan., senior said the University was extremely aggressive during his recruitment. Some of those aspects included academic demands and responsibilities, as well as coping with the social and cultural transition into the University environment, he said. "I don't think anyone is naive enough to believe that they'll be walking into some perfect environment," he said. "But I just think it would have been more helpful if the challenging aspects of the University were addressed." "Once I got here, there weren't as many minority students as I had expected," he said. "It wasn't necessarily harder for me to get involved, but it was something to think about." Abul-Aziz said that during recruitment, he received the impression that there were more minorities at the University than there actually were. See PUSH on page 3A Student Senate debates diversity requirement By Tim Harrington tharrington@kansan.com Kansan staff writer For the past few months, campus diversity has been the topic of choice on the Student Senate listserv, an online forum for students and student senators. Through weeks of online debate ranging from the philosophical advantages of diversity to the down-to-earth practicalities of achieving it, Senate agrees that racially and ethnically diverse campus and curriculum are good ideas. How the University of Kansas can reach that goal is another matter. So far, Senate's most significant push for diversity has come in the There are 13 student groups formed on the basis of race, ethnicity or sexual orientation. Combined, these groups receive more than $43,000 from Senate, 6.4 percent of Senate's budget. form of generous funding for campus student groups. In addition, minority affairs programs also receive money from the educational opportunity fund, into which KU students pay $6 per semester. Aside from the allocation of funds, Senate has been unable to come to a consensus on what, if anything, it should do to directly affect the racial and ethnic diversity of the KU campus.

Ron Guy, a 57-year-old Lawrence resident, died Saturday at 1:25 p.m. from burns, and Duane Tenpenny, a 48-year-old Topeka resident, died at the scene. Danny Bolden, a 37-year-old Lawrence resident, suffered smoke inhalation and was treated at Lawrence Memorial Hospital on Nov. 24. Charles Price, a 35-year-old resident of Kansas City, Mo., died at 15:08 a.m. at the University of Kansas Medical Center, according to a University Relations representative at the Medical Center. Price suffered from third-degree burns covering 90 percent of his body. Last week's incident occurred at 4:43 p.m. at the coal-fired plant operated by KPL, a subsidiary of Western Resources Inc. The sheriff's office, Douglas County rural fire department and KPL are investigating the incident. Price, Guy and Tenpenny were doing maintenance work on a 4,160-volt breaker when an electrical failure caused the explosion and fire. Bolden came to assist the three maintenance workers and suffered smoke inhalation as a result. Carl Koupal, executive vice president for Western Resources Inc., said counselors were available for employees at KPL. "To lose co-workers in an incident like this can be very difficult times," he said. Price worked for ABB Services Co., a contractor for KPL, Guy, a maintenance coordinator, and Tenpenny, an electrician, both worked for the KPL plant. Associate director promoted to head KU public safety Mary Corcoran mcorcoran@kansan.com Kansan staff writer Ralph Oliver, associate director of the Department of Public Safety at the University of Kansas, was named the department's director Wednesday. He will officially take the position Dec. 11. "I'm honored to be taking the position from an individual who has dedicated 23 years to the department. It is an honor to replace him." Oliver said. Oliver will replace James Denney, who has been the department's director since 1993. Denney will become the coordinator of emergency communications for Douglas County. Denney has worked with the KU police Denney has worked with the KU police department for more than 20 years. "I'm pleased that we will continue to have the opportunity to work with Jim in his new role," said Rodger Oroke, director of facilities management. "KU is fortunate to have a highly qualified and experienced person in Ralph Oliver to appoint to this important position serving the University community. I anticipate a smooth transition." The director of public safety oversees the KU police department, its building security department and the University's emergency communication division. Oliver said he did not expect to make many changes in the department. Oliver has a history of public safety service. He became a patrol officer at the KU Medical Center in 1977 and was named assistant director of the KU police department in 1984. A reception to honor Denney will be held 2 to 4 p.m. Dec. 9 at the Adams Alumni Center.

Photo by Roger Nomer/KAN SAAN Greeks get together to help community By Sarah McWilliams smcwilliams@kansan.com Kansan staff writer In the hope of helping their community, members of KU fraternities and sororites are joining together again this year as part of the Fraternity and Sorority Foundation. Amy Terril, Kansas City, Mo, junior and foundation cochairwoman, said each of the 37 chapters of the Interfraternity Council and Panhellenic Association would donate either 5 percent or $100 from the total funds raised by their major philanthropies this year to local youth services. Members of the foundation board have accepted applications from local agencies and will decide by January to which ones they want to donate, said Gustavo Fernandez, Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, senior and foundation co-chairman. The foundation was started in 1989 by members of the greek community because they wanted to make an impact on their local community, said Bill Nelson, associate director of the Student Activities and Leadership Development Center and "It teaches them two things," McKnight said. "It increases their awareness of problems in the community, and it allows them to see that something tangible can be done about the problems." The subject returned a few minutes later and again began to mass Allen Ford, professor of business and member of the board, said the students took advice from the faculty and community members involved but that they did most of the work at the foundation. The board made its first donation in 1992 to Head Start of Douglas County, and each year since it has raised from $1,000 to $5,000 for a variety of causes, including mental health, the elderly, domestic violence and the homeless. Nelson said. CAMPUS BRIEFS Phil McKnight, school of education professor, said he became part of the board because he thought it affected not only the Lawrence community but the students themselves.

The man stopped a few minutes later and walked south, away from the hall. The 114-passenger Amtrak train smashed into the 1991 Geo Metro at between 50 and 60 miles per hour. When police arrived the man had already left. No one was injured in the collision. The students described the man as heavy set wearing green khaki pants and a long-sleeve white T-shirt. The man was also wearing a black skimask. Police continue to investigate. A University of Kansas graduate student lost her car Friday morning to a 20-car, three-engine train. No one was injured in the collision. Passenger train hits car stalled on track impaled it and pushed the car about 300 yards down the track, according to police reports. The vehicle was totaled. The train received minor damage. The driver was a1. ested for operating a vehicle under the influence of alcohol. "There were more or less scratches on the plow of the train," said Bob Langer, Amtrak manager of train operations. Lawrence police said the car's driver knew that the street curved, but she turned too soon. The car was stuck on the tracks 87 feet from the crossing, police said. The collision occurred shortly after 2 a.m. near the 1500 block of East 11th Street. The engine was backed up and the car was removed from the front of the train, Langer said. After a two hour delay, the train continued on its way to Los Angeles, where it arrived at 2 p.m. Saturday, Langer said. He said no one left the train and that no crew members were replaced. "It left with everything exactly the same except a few extra dings on the engine," Langer said.

"I think diversity is so important, especially if you're not exposed to it in elementary or high school," said Becca Kelley, Liberal Arts and Sciences senator. "But as for a requirement, it gets complicated once you get into really specialized majors like engineering or business." Kelley said finding a balance would be the key. Teaching students entering a global market what they will need to know about other cultures while at the same time respecting the students' rights to take courses they want to in the era of linear tuition could be tricky, Kelley said. Whitney Black, Off-Campus senator, agrees that a more diverse curriculum is needed, but she said Senate shouldn't act without finding out more about how students feel about the subject. "I think a diversity requirement is a good idea because even as a liberal arts major you can go through this university and only learn about white people," Black said. "But student input needs to be as much a factor as possible." Scott Sullivan, student body president, isn't sure if a diversity requirement is the right way to achieve culturally-aware KU graduates. "I think you can learn more from people and experiences than from a class that you may or may not want to take in the first place." Sullivan said. Sullivan's view is in line with Chancellor Robert Hemenway's goal of increasing minority enrollment. In pursuit of Hemenway's goal, the Multicultural Affairs Committee, one of Senate's five standing committees, is working to recruit more students of color with events such as "Colors of KU," which is scheduled for sometime in April. "It would be a whole-day event where we bring in minority student leaders in from area high schools and have them meet with minority student leaders here on campus," said Keena McClendon, Multicultural Affairs committee chairwoman. She said that the committee would like to see a diversity requirement but only as a short-term solution to the ongoing task of diversifying campus. So far, the committees and Senate have confined efforts toward a diversity requirement to discussion on the listserv, unsure of exactly how their constituency feels about the issue. But one senator, Rochelle Votaw, Liberal Arts and Sciences senator, is unwilling to wait for the rest of her colleagues in Senate to act. Votaw formed an activist group which eventually led to the formation of an ad-hoc committee for a U.S. cultural diversity requirement. Made up of students, faculty and administrators, the 12-person committee is attempting to determine which existing classes at the University could fit a U.S. cultural diversity requirement. Votaw said that the proposed three-hour requirement would apply only to the college of liberal arts and sciences, but she hopes that eventually other university departments would adopt it. "I think it comes down to an inequality in courses." Votaw said. "It's not very balanced." Votaw said that between the European-based Western Civilization requirements and the non-Western Civilization requirement, more often than not, students are left unprepared to deal with diversity issues they will be facing after college. "There are still some technicalities which have to be discussed," she said. "But it's only a matter of time now." It is time for the University to catch up with its peer institutions. Of the five peer institutions established by the Board of Regents, four of them already have some form of U.S. cultural diversity requirement in place in their equivalents to the University's college of liberal arts and sciences. Student Senate low in member diversity The measurement of racial and ethnic diversity among a group ultimately comes down to numbers and percentages. By Tim Harrington tharrington@kansan.com Kansan staff writer Student Senate is no different. Undoubtedly the most visible, if not the most influential, group of University student leaders. Senate ideally should be proportionally similar in race and ethnicity to University students as a whole. With two minority groups, Senate exceeds that representative expectation. Senate's percentage of African-American senators, 5.8 percent, is well above the percentage of black students among the undergraduate class as a whole, 3 percent, as reported by "University Profiles" for the fall of 1996. Senate is 2.9 percent Hispanic, again above the undergraduate proportion of 2.2 percent listed in "University Profile." However, these percentages seem less impressive when considered in terms of real people. The 5.8 percent that is African American translates to four senators. The over-representative 2.9 percent of the Hispanic population translates to two Hispanic senators. Technically, it's even less than that. Rochelle Votaw, Liberal Arts and Sciences senator, a Mexican-American, takes offense to the fact that the University refers to her as Hispanic. Votaw said "Hispanic" first came about during the Nixon administration to categorize a large number of diverse groups under one name. She prefers the term Chicano or at least Latina. "It's problematic to correlate the Student Senate numbers with the University numbers," Votaw said. "It gives the impression that Senate is OK. Senate's not OK." Though it may not be as ethnically diverse as it could be, some senators think it has improved. Dion Jones, holdover senator, said that while diversity had improved in Senate this year, political affiliation was now a dividing factor. "You can tell by the way we sit. It's Delta Force on the right and Unite on the left," Jones said of Senate meetings. Becca Kellley, Liberal Arts and Sciences senator, agrees that the diversity has improved but has a different view of how Senate behaves. "I don't think that diversity is just about skin color. It's also about diversity of thought, and that's improved a lot also—in a good way," Kelley said. The Universities of Colorado, Iowa, North Carolina and Oregon all have a diversity requirement. The University of Oklahoma is the only peer institution that does not. Votaw, a Mexican-American, said some students need a good dose of multiculturalism so as not to offend people of color at the present time. "I'm tired of hearing ignorant statements like: 'The reason Mexican people are so short is because their diet is so poor' or 'Black people do better in the NBA because slave-masters bred them to have strong calves.'" Votaw said. Votaw said that the racial and ethnic inequalities at this and other universities around the country cannot be ignored nor can they be solved easily. "A diversity requirement won't solve the problems we have." Wotaw said. "But at least it's a start." Push for recruitment requires help from all Cerveny said that differences in regional diversity made minority recruitment more complicated. Continued from page 1A "One thing to understand is that many of the students we are interested in recruiting are not in the minority where they live or go to school," he said. "It is difficult to convince students that this University is the place for them when they come here, look around and wonder, 'Why would I want to enter into an environment where I would be in the minority?'" Robert Page, assistant director of admissions, said although it was the admissions office's responsibility to coordinate minority recruitment, the University community needed to make an effort in recruiting minority students. "What people need to understand is that everyone needs to help." Page said. "It's not just one person's job. Students and faculty need to help minority students understand that this is an exceptional university where everyone can succeed." Aurora Marin, Leoti sophomore, said she realized during the recruiting process that the University was not as diverse as some schools she had considered. She said she made an effort to attend recruiting programs and campus events where she would meet other minority students and faculty Marin is a member of the Hispanic American Leadership Organization and Sigma Lambda Gamma, a Hispanic sorority. "The only way a University can become more diverse is if you attend there and you bring others with you," Marin said. Marin has been doing her part. She said her younger brother would attend the University next fall. Robert Cobin, Kansas City, Kan., senior, said he considered a few colleges with high quality engineering programs, such as Kansas State University, before he chose to attend the University of Kansas. He chose the University because it had a comfortable atmosphere. "KU had a good engineering program, but overall, I just felt that the University was pretty welcoming," he said. "My minority engineering advisor and diversity program director took me in and acted as a second mother to me. I feel pretty much like I have found a place at the University." The University is committed to minority recruitment that will give prospective students a feel for the University and a glimpse of the campus. Page said that the University's Multicultural Day recruitment program traditionally had been one of the most effective recruiting programs. This year it was changed to a two-day program to address more White or undefined 91% American Indian - 1% Black - 3% Asian - 3% Hispanic - 2% "I don't think anyone is naive enough to believe that they'll be walking into some perfect environment. But I just think it would have been more helpful if the challenging aspects of the University were addressed." Malik Abdul-Aizi Kansas City, Kan... senior "This worked out well because there was a greater variety of minority students," he said. "We wanted to be more inclusive in meeting the needs of all the groups and we wanted to acclimate them better with the University." Additionally, 37 representatives from four campus minority groups Black Student Union, AsianAmerican Student Union, International Student Association and Hispanic American Leadership Organization helped during recruitment this summer. The University has high quality minority faculty and resources, but it does not want to focus entirely on that aspect during the minority recruitment process. Page said. "We don't want to just try and produce this perfect picture," he said. "We just want them to know about the resources that are available to everyone at the University — the resources that people need to participate and succeed." Abul-Aziz, who speaks to minorities who are considering attending the University, said the University of Kansas offered a lot of resources and opportunities for everyone to get involved.

K. 97 W. David Keith/ KANSAN Examining Athletes in Action should leave their preaching in the lockeroom This is why the halftime speech given Nov. 18 by the Athletes in Action team never should have been delivered. Basketball games are a source on great entertainment at the University of Kansas. Students look for solace from the everyday drudgery of classes by traveling to Allen Field House and watching the men's or women's basketball team play. What they don't go to the Field House for is to be preached to. A basketball game shouldn't be a venue for a moral lesson. Between the basketball game and the band, there should be entertainment from the tip-off to the final horn. Bombarding students with extended messages about anything — let alone religion — doesn't belong at a sporting event. While commercial messages may be necessary to finance sports at th University, moral lecturing isn't a part of KU athletics. Preaching Christian values at the halftime of a game not appropriate at the University. Additionally, the religious message delivered by Athletes in Action was inappropriate for the venue. The University of Kansas is composed of students from many different backgrounds — Christian and otherwise. As a public university, these individual values are protected. No teacher preaches from behind his or her lectern; the Chancellor doesn't extol the virtues of "Our Loving Savior Jesus Christ Who Died For Our Sins" at Traditions Night. Students' rights are respected in these areas of the University, and it was wrong for them to be ignored at the women's basketball game. Certainly, preaching has a place. Its place, however, is not halftime of a KU basketball game. Trying to convert basketball fans at a university to Christianity was wholly improper. Morality is an important part of life, but trying to change someone else's religious views in a non-religious setting shows no respect for the diversity represented by the University. KU basketball faithful and students should never be subjected to the kind of Christian crusade undertaken Tuesday night by Athletes in Action. Gerry Doyle for the editorial board Feedback Firing 'Kansan' editor wrong action to take I feel that it is a step backward for Spencer Duncan, editor of the "Kansan," to be fired. We are on the verge of a new era and are still faced with censorship. I don't think that the loud minority who may have complained about a few things should dictate how the student paper is run. Is it the job of the media not to offend any of its readers? Good luck. Someone will always be offended. The members of the "Kansan" board who fired Duncan sent the message out: "We only want to publish things that are not controversial. We don't want anyone who reads this paper to find anything to be upset or offended Wake up. The times have changed. Don't censor the paper by sticking in a new person who will be a good little editor and publish only the "right things." Give us a "free" paper. The students demand it. about. We will make sure that only clean, politically correct information is allowed in our paper." Kent Troughton Shawnee senior I read in the "Kansas City Star" today (Nov. 26) that Spencer Duncan was fired because of some things that were printed in the "Kansan." The "double entendre" that he, in essence, approved as editor, met with approval from the paper's governing board. am only a less than semi-interested observer), brought home a "Kansan" several weeks ago. The front page had an article about the international officers from the Command and General Staff Officers' Course at Fort Leavenworth visiting the University. One of their stops was at the "Kansan." If I'm not mistaken, one of the aspects of the "Kansan" that the international officers respected was the freedom of speech expressed in the paper. I'm sure that a number of those officers, who are still at Fort Leavenworth, read the "Kansas City Star." What are they thinking now? My wife, who is a KU student (I Chris Morey Ft.

Raving Forget animal rights, let's talk about the humans D don't talk to me about animal rights. The topic has become a hot one at the University of Kansas this semester, but don't count on me to support our little furry, web-ooted or scaled friends. I love animals and believe they should be treated well, but I think that the reverence they have been given on this campus is entirely unwarranted. PETER MORRISON Clay McCuistion opinion@kansan.com Those of you who object to turkey bowling on moral grounds or believe that dissection and animal experimentation are evil are certainly entitled to your opinions — just don't count on my support. I happen to be alive today because of animal testing. Animals died to save my life, and I am glad of it. I happen to be one of the 700,000 insulin-dependent diabetics in the United States today. Insulin — the life-saving hormone needed by type I diabetics — was discovered through animal testing. In 1921 and 1922 Frederick Banting used 10 dogs to isolate and use insulin in a clinical setting. The dogs had their pancreases removed — the pancreas being the gland responsible for producing insulin — and most likely died quickly afterwards. However, this experimentation led to insulin being available to humans. Such drastic operations and testing could not have been carried out on men or women. It was and is not ethical or feasible. However, such tests could be carried out on dogs — and have resulted in a treatment that has saved millions of human lives. Were the lives of these ten dogs worth more than the lives of millions of humans who have been given new life and hope through insulin? That's your question to answer. Being an insulin-dependant diabetic has shaped my entire outlook on animal rights. If animals could help us cure human diseases such as AIDS and various cancers, who will volunteer to tell a dying human patient that the lives of lab rats are more important than effective medicine? If animal rights activists had been active in 1922, would the 700,000 diabetics alive today be dead? How much value does an animal's life have compared to a human's? The entire turkey-bowling debate is foolish when viewed in this context. Once every homeless and hungry person in the world has been housed and fed, then we can think about the brutal use of turkey carcasses. The entire "animal rights" debate is one of ludicrously misplaced priorities. What about human rights? Do we pause to consider the sweatshop laborers toiling to make the Nike apparel worn by the KU basketball team? What should we do about the homeless and hungry people who wander the streets of this country in agony? Do we place turkies above their well being? Again, I leave it to you to answer these questions. I don't hate animals. They certainly deserve respect and humane treatment. But humans deserve respect and humane treatment as well. We so often ignore the poverty that exists under our own noses and look to another, more glamorous cause. Poverty is not cute or fun. It's ugly and life threatening. After all, which is more photogenic? Helping a starving and crippled man, or rescuing a cuddly white bunny from a perfume-testing lab? Perhaps activists should think less about their press clippings and more about their duties to their own species. Animals died to save me. They might have died to save you as well. I don't always feel comfortable with the idea. But when I think of the millions of others besides me whom animal testing has saved — and will save — I do not feel guilty.

During Thanksgiving break — when I wasn't thinking up excuses to avoid — when I wasn't thinking u my relatives — I thought up a list of things that I am thankful for this year. John Colbert opinion@kansan.com I am thankful that my brother's girlfriend spent Thanksgiving with my family. This allowed the focus of attention to be shifted away from me for once. If she hadn't been there it would have been my mom, aunts and cousins speculating on why I am such a loser and still don't have a steady girlfriend. Instead all they could do was sit I am thankful for Ted Turner and his media empire. I can always count on my man Ted to provide me with a 24-hour Clint Eastwood movie marathon every Thanksgiving and Christmas. For me the Holidays just wouldn't be the same without Clint. I am thankful that there is someone who understands that not everyone can stomach an all-day marathon of "My So Called Life." I mean, MTV has been rerunning the same episodes since I was a freshman. around and say how sweet Ashley was. I am thankful that I have several cousins with messed-up lives. Whenever I am home for the holidays and feeling worthless, it is always nice to see them. It is so nice to see them because no matter how poorly I am doing in school or whatever, compared to them I am a genius. I am thankful that Marky Mark has been able to carve out a new career for himself in acting. I didn't see a real bright future for him and the Funky Bunch if they did another album. I am thankful that so many wonderful performing acts from my youth are touring again. The thought of another Motley Crue or Cyndi Lauper tour sends chills up my spine. At least Michael Hutchence knew when the time was right to hang it up. I am thankful that I have such loyal and caring friends. Friends who care enough to let me ride home in the trunk of the car after a long night of merriment. Friends who will surprise me with a stun gun for a laugh. Friends who will tell my professor that my dad had a heart attack when I miss class because of a hangover. Friends who will break into my house when I'm not there and eat and drink everything in my refrigerator. I am thankful for Terry Allen and his strict discipline policy. For a while it was going to look like the football team was going to need a full-time probation officer on their staff to make sure everybody was in line. Jayhawker-Towers almost could have qualified as a half-way house. I am thankful that Saddam Hussein is trying to start another war with the United States. I hope he is successful. Television just hasn't been the same since the end of our last conflict with him. At least now I should have something to watch during winter break. I am thankful for the KU Police Department. I feel a lot safer whenever I am walking across campus late at night. I feel safer because I know that unless the fine men and women of the KUPD aren't sitting in their cars at the Memorial Stadium parking lot or on West Campus having a chat session, they are constantly on the lookout for perverts, thieves and people without lights on their bikes — all of whom pose a significant threat to students. Lastly, I am thankful for all of the fine readers who have approached me to offer praise and damnation. You have all made it worth it, especially the ones offering damnation.

Feedback Movie tickets pricey; life just isn't fair Gerry Doyle, in his editorial about the price of movie tickets in Lawrence, wrote "for a town populated mostly by students, movie theaters seem to be paying little respect to their biggest customers." According to statistics published by the Kansas Department of Health and Environment, the population of Lawrence in 1995 was 70,700. Fall 1997 enrollment at the University's main campus was 27,567. For the sake of argument. let's say that every KU student is included in the official population count. That would still leave at least 43,133 nonstudent residents in Lawrence. This hardly makes Lawrence a town populated by students. Doyle is likely correct, however, in his assumption that KU students are among the largest group of consumers in town, despite his insistence that as a rule, students have less money than other adult residents. The fact that a great number of Lawrence businesses choose to cater to student needs has led Doyle to unrealistically assume that all businesses in Lawrence should do the same. Unfortunately, unless students boycott the first-run movies and cause a loss of revenue for the Hollywood Theaters, ticket prices are likely to remain the same. The real-world lessons here are that life isn't fair, prices rise when there is no competition and all Lawrence residents between the ages of 12 and 54 have to pay a hefty $6 for a movie ticket. It'll be that way as long as Hollywood Theaters remain the only game in town for mainstream movies.

THREE'S A CHARM It is the preseason NIT and one of the nation's premier college basketball teams, a premier college basketball tea second-ranked team predicted to prance through the tournament, is losing. With 11 seconds left in overtime, fans are on the edge of their seats, praying for a miracle to keep their team alive long enough to win the NIT semifinal game and move on the championship game. 3 A player wearing number 12 catches a pass, glances at the basket, and launches the ball from beyond the three-point arc. 34 written on his jersey. With his help, his team is able to overcome a startling deficit to win the processe NIT abstrahcn The crowd hushes and fans at home hold their breath, all with arms raised straight in the air. In the silence you can hear the ball bounce off the rim once before swishing through the nylon. The crowd erupts. The team will live to see another day. This time, a plethora of three-point shots comes from the hands of a young player with the number And another game. But again this powerful basketball team must fight for its life. The Jayhawks of Kansas keep their preseason NIT winning streak alive, thanks to the shooting accuracy of players like Billy Thomas, 12, and Paul Pierce, 34. It was once said that Thomas can kill a 10-point lead in the blink of an eye with his threepoint shooting skills. These days, people will be adding Pierce's name to the shooters list. Fans love the threepoint shot. It is the ultimate in comefrom-behind drama. Three shots and suddenly that 10-point lead melts like the Wicked Witch of the West. In the proseason NIT, it was Thomas and Pierce sharing the role of Dorothy. So if Ryan Robertson's spectacular assists, Raef LaFrentz's slamming dunks and T.J. Pugh's miraculous layups still leave Kansas facing defeat, pass the ball to the perimeter and let the threes fly. With Pierce and Thomas wearing the ruby slippers, victory is as certain as Dorothy's getting home again.

Riding carts are banned in all PGA Tour and Nike Tour events and in the six-day final round of qualifying school that starts tomorrow in Haines City, Fla. Casey Martin has won an injunction to use a cart this week. Martin, a member of Stanford University's 1994 NCAA champion team, has a progressively worsening muscle and bone condition in his right leg. PGA Tour rules allow carts in the first two rounds of qualifying school to expedite play but bans them in the final stage to simulate regular tour conditions. If Martin, 25, finishes in the top 35 at school, he would be eligible to play on the PGA Tour next year. Martin is already eligible to play on the Nike Tour in 1998. Because both the PGA Tour and the Nike Tour do not allow carts, the case appears headed for a hearing no matter how Martin fares at qualifying school.

The San Antonio Spurs' forward averaged 15.2 points, 11.1 rebounds, 2.56 blocked shots and 1.9 assists in 35.4 minutes. He led rookies in scoring, rebounding, minutes played and was fourth in field goal percentage.

ASHBURN, Va. — Washington Redskins quarterback Gus Frerotte has a broken hip and will miss the rest of the season. Redskins' roster hurts after Sunday injuries The Redskins also released wide receiver Alvin Harper and said running back Terry Allen could miss the final games with a sprained ankle. Jeff Hostetler becomes the Redskins starting quarterback. Frerotte was injured on the first play of the fourth quarter in Sunday's 23-20 loss to St. Louis. He finished the game, completing two fourth-and-long passes in a late drive to tie the score. Allen, also injured, will be replaced by Stephen Davis. Harper's release came after a locker room tirade following Sunday's game.

Period. Coach Williams has said it many times. The University of Kansas has the best basketball fans in the country. The loyal, die-hard fans in the student sections at the games play a large part in the high energy and excitement level in Allen Field House, which are unmistakable KU basketball trademarks. I am proud to be a Jayhawk and am proud of our basketball program. Techno-Bowling Kansas Union Jaycow. As the cliche goes, though — that was then; this is now. The transition from Tiger Country to Allen Field House is a complete 360-degree spin. The first time I walked into the field house, I felt the Phog surround me — I felt the tradition that only Kansas basketball possesses. I have every hope for a perfect season of Kansas basketball during its 100th year. But as I was standing at the exhibition game and looked up to see Danny Manning's and Lynette Woodard's jerseys missing, I wondered if it could be a perfect season. Even though the jerseys are simply pieces of cloth, they represent a part of Kansas tradition. Next, shouting intelligent epithets such as "You suck!" is both incorrect (they are NCAA varsity athletes I would like to suggest that some of our zealous fans could use a little classing up. And I appeal to the large majority of fans to assist by asserting peer pressure on those who go too far in the stands. To state it plainly — the jerseys need to be returned. Without the jerseys, Kansas basketball may suffer a slight tarnish on what would otherwise be a golden season. whom I would wager could stomp the shouting fan in a game of one on one) and is too Antler-like to rear its ugly head in the field house. There's nothing wrong with razzing a player for something he does or riding a coach to sit down when he's overstepping but screaming about their mothers and making fun of their looks is inane. Personal attacks on players (or coaches) are unsportsmanlike and should be quashed in the true spirit of competition. You don't see our players acting like that. talk BACK do). It's OK to really want your team to win, but hey ... get in the game. Third, the "Bullshit" chant is way overused (I'm no prudge, but I would be happy if it were never heard). To listen to some fans, you would think that no KU player ever has committed a foul. Believe it or not, the referees are right more often than not. I'm amazed to hear fans chanting "Bullshift" when they don't even know the rules of the game (but they think they The antics in the student section add a great deal to the games, as long as they do not cross the bounds of good taste. I particularly like the "Perestroika" chant when a visiting Russian diplomat was announced at a game, and I still chuckle when the students on the north and chant what is printed on the reverse side of a sign when it is raised for the south end. Let's promote more fun and clever fan involvement and get rid of the negative derogatory comments. Let's take a lesson from Coach Williams and get rid of the profane language. Most likely it will just take a quick word to the overly rambunctious fan to, "Keep it KU" or "Class it up a little."

Loss to Arizona ended last season By Tommy Gallagher tgallagher@kansan.com Associate sports editor When No. 2 Kansas battles No. 4 Arizona tonight, the Jayhawks will try to make fans forget about last season's team and NCAA Tournament loss. Last season in the Sweet 16, Arizona defeated Kansas 85-82 and went on to win its first national championship. The Wildcats return their top eight players from that team while four of Kansas' top six players graduated. Kansas coach Roy Williams said he was tired of answering questions about last season's team, which was 34-2. "It was last year's game. It was last year's team," Williams said. "Last year's team is not here. We have to be more concerned about how we're playing now. I'm not one that believes a great deal in revenge." Forward Paul Pierce already had some measure of payback to Arizona guard Miles Simon. They crossed paths at an NCAA pro-development camp in Los Angeles where 130 college-aged players from Southern California squared off during the summer. Pierce's team defeated Simon's in the championship game of the camp. In a story published by the "Arizona Daily Star" yesterday, Simon said he wished the Jayhawks would move into the top of the polls before tonight's game. The Starting Lineup "I don't really pay attention to the rankings," Simon said. "But I hope Kansas is the top-ranked team. We beat them last year when they were No. 1. I don't know if they want that ranking or not." Both teams expect to play an up-tempo game that would feature a lot of scoring in transition. The Jayhawks rank No. 2 nationally in scoring offense with 84.9 points per game, and Arizona ranks No. 3 with 83.8 The Jayhawks remained at No. 2 this week, while Duke took the top spot from Arizona. Kansas now is 6-0 but has looked sluggish at both ends of the court during the Chase Preseason NIT championship, which it won by defeating Florida State, 73-58.

The Jayhawks will rely on Pierce and forward Raef LaFrentz, both of whom have averaged more than 19 points and 10 rebounds per game. But Kansas also has been effective from behind the three-point line, shooting almost 19 percent as a team. Guard Billy Thomas has been averaging 13 points per game and has been shooting 45 percent from behind the three-point line. Pierce shoots better than 74 percent from behind the arc, and guard Ryan Robertson shoots better than 71 percent. Arizona likes to run as well and has the preseason All-America backcourt necessary to run a fast-break style of offense. The Wildcats have five players who average double figures in scoring. They are led by Mike Bibby and Simon, the Most Valuable Player of the NCAA Tournament last season. But the Arizona frontcourt defeated Kansas' last season by using quickness and speed to snag rebounds and score in transition. Arizona coach Lute Olson said the key to defeating Kansas last season, and perhaps tonight, rested with Arizona's quickness. "We've been trying to take advantage of our quickness by extending our defense over the full court," Olson said. "We try to get teams to play an up-tempo game against us because that's when we're most effective." Jayhawks recent play and that the concern was magnified given tonight's oomment. Williams said he was concerned about the "We haven't practiced very well to date, and we haven't played very well to date," Williams said. "It will be a major challenge on Tuesday night. If we don't play well, the game will get very ugly for the Jayhawks real quick." Michigan should sweep team, individual honors This has been one of the best college football seasons I have seen in some time, but the national championship and Helsman Trophy still must be claimed. And while I do not have a vote for 1. Charles Woodson, Michigan corner back / wide receiver/punt and kick returner. He is the reason the Wolverines are No. 1 in the country and have had the toprated defense all see- either race, I can help sort the contenders from the pretenders. First, here is the third and final version of my Heisman hopefuls. The best athlete in the country is also the best player. When he concludes his NFL career, Woodson may be far better than his NFL namesake ever was. Tommy Gallagher tgallagher@kansan.com rated defense all season. 2. Ryan Leaf, Washington State quarterback. Leaf is the reason the Cougars are in the Rose Bowl with a 10-1 record. When the team lost to Arizona State, he was spectacular and nearly compensated for a poor defensive showing. Tennessee quarterback Peyton Manning keeps snatching the headlines, but Leaf has had the better numbers. I give Leaf the edge because he was not at fault for the team's lone loss. The same cannot be said of Manning against No. 6 Florida back in September. 3. Ricky Williams, Texas running back. This trend has got to stop in the Big 12 Conference: Good running back playing for a team that cannot make a bowl. Iowa State's Troy Davis had more than 2,000 yards last season, which was roughly 1,000 yards per victory. Texas Tech's Byron Hanspard went to a bowl game last season, but that team was hardly impressive (though more impressive than his 0.00 GPA last fall). Should Michigan defeat Washington State in the Rose Bowl, Michigan deserves the national championship. The Wolverines had the nation's best defense and best player. Now I want to look at the race for No. 1, which always seems to be more confusing than it should be. Nebraska kicked its way to victory against No. 19 Missouri, a game it did not deserve to win. And Central Florida led at halftime in Nebraska before the Cornhuskers recovered for a 13-point victory. Even if Nebraska wins the rest of its games it does not deserve a share of No. 1. Nebraska defeated No. 21 Washington on the road by 13 points and overrated No. 10 Kansas State by 30 points. The Cornhuskers have struggled against ordinary opponents this season. Contrast that with the Wolverines, who have defeated six bowl teams in 11 games and whom would you vote for? Besides, it would be poetic justice if Nebraska was denied a share of No. 1 the same way Penn State was in 1994 after a 12-0 season. Nebraska football coach Tom Osborne agreed with the pollsters' decision back then, so he should not disagree if Michigan is awarded the national championship this season. For Woodson and the Wolverines this season, it all comes up roses. Gallagher is an Olathe senior in journalism. Golfers hope to swing into spring Young but talented men's team exceeds preseason predictions By Ronnie Wachtei sports@kansan.com Special to the Kansan The Kansas men's golf team ended its season with a bang last week, capturing its second team title in five tournaments at the Crown Classic in Luboń, Texas. The fall season was a success for the Jayhawks, who in August were considered a talented but inexperienced team. "I thought it went real well," sophomore Ryan Vermeer said. "We accomplished everything we set out to do, even though we didn't play as well at each tournament as we wanted to." Vermeer was expected to be a young leader on the team, and he came through. With a 72.1 average per 18 holes, Vermer had the second-best mark on the team and was ranked 24th nationally. He trailed junior Chris Thompson, who earned a 71.17 per-round average and was third in the nation in that category. But the team's work is far from finished. The spring season looms as a proving ground for the Jayhawks. "We need a real good showing at the Big 12 Tournament," Vermeer said. "But we're pretty sure to make it to regionals. Depending on what we do there, we may make it to the nationals." But before the Jayhawks can do that, the team would like to avenge a few of its losses. "We lost to Oklahoma, but we see them twice next spring," Vermeer said. "We need to keep beating Wichita State, Nebraska and Tulsa, three of the guys in our district. We see all of them next spring." But with a few months of cold weather waiting, worthwhile time on the links is hard to come by for the Jayhawks. So what is a young team to do? "We're starting a weight-training program," Vermeer said. "We going to be doing that until the end of January, to work on our strength and increase our flexibility. We need to keep beating the teams we have been beating, and this is going to help." Three starters star in anti-gang ads The Associated Press TOPEKA — With youth gangs a growing reality throughout the state, three Kansas basketball stars are aiming a stark message at young people: Stay in school, study and stay out of gangs. Forwards Raef LaFrentz and Paul Pierce and guard Ryan Robertson — heroes to thousands of Kansans all star in public service announcements that began airing Monday and will continue through March in TV and radio markets throughout the state. The announcements cost about $45,000 altogether to produce and was financed by the Koch Crime Commission, Kansas Bar Association and the Kansas District Judges Association, said commission director Steven Davies Each of the three 30-second ads features one of the uniformed players in an inset that is surrounded by lively tape from a Jayhawks game. Their messages are similar. Posters featuring the players will be distributed to all 503 school districts. 46 Tomorrow's weather A crow with a sun on its head.

Yeoman and Gwen Olson jyeowan@kanson.com golsan@kanson.com Kansan staff writers The fraternities and sororities governed by the Interfraternity Council and the Panhellenic Association have a reputation for being exclusively white. This is an image that the groups are trying to change at the University of Kansas. The associations oversee the University's traditional Greek system of 14 sororities and 23 fraternities. Few minority students are in the traditional Greek system because few participate in rush, said Ryan Dill, Junction City junior and president of Lambda Chi Alpha. "We are actively recruiting minority members," Dill said. "We work really hard to bring minorities in. But I have found when I was rush chair that a lot of times they feel uncomfortable in the traditional Greek system, and feel more comfortable in the historically Black system." Dill said that Lambda Chi Alpha has only three minority members, a number it are trying to increase. The house has 55 members. "Because there are several systems, it creates a slow growth of minorities in the predominately white system," he said. "The numbers just aren't there for people who want to rush." Kara Douglass, El Dorado junior and Panhellenic vice president for membership, agreed. Douglass said that Panhellenic did not keep track of minority members going through rush and that there was not a space on the rush enrollment form for minority classification. "We don't keep track of the numbers because there is no need to," she said. "We don't treat minority members differently. They have just as good a chance of getting into a house as anybody else does." The University's peer institutions do not record the number of minority mem- See GREEKS on page 3A (4) Tory Howze, Atlanta junior, entertains Monica Juarbe, San Juan, Puerto Rico, sophomore and Lewis Hall desk assistant.

After having attended an historically African-American university, the diverse backgrounds of her fellow Lewis residents opened her eyes, she said. She said she now thinks that living in the residence halls is one of the best ways to experience diversity at the University of Kansas. "You get to meet a lot of people that you wouldn't meet living on your own," she said. Howze, Atlanta junior, transferred to the University this fall from Alcorn State University in Mississippi. "People usually think of black and white when they think of diversity," Howze said.

The long-awaited and intensely-debated student initiative to put a Student Senate election polling site on Daisy Hill most likely will be brought up at tonight's Student Senate Executive Committee meeting. StudEx meetings are attended by the student body president, the vice president, the StudEx chairman, the committee chairs, three student members of the SenEx committee and the chairman of the graduate executive committee. The meetings are held at 5:15 p.m. before every Senate session to establish Senate's agenda for the evening. Three others are on the committee but do not vote. Supporters of the student-initiated bill, a bill with no sponsor but which has the signatures of at least 1,000 KU students backing it, hope to have the bill brought off the floor by a StudEx member and put on Senate's agenda. Seth Hoffman, All Scholarship Hall Council senator, who has been working on the bill since September, said he was glad the legislation finally may have its day in court, so to speak. "I'm sure there are multiple people on StudEx that would be willing to do that," said Kelly Huffman, StudEx committee chair. Hoffman had the 1,000 student signatures needed weeks ago, but the elections commission, which verifies the signatures, nullified nine sheets of signatures on a technicality, leaving Hoffman 92 signatures short. "It doesn't really matter," Hoffman said. "We ended up getting about 1,500 signatures anyway." Student Senate Rules and Regulations mandates that the petition must contain the exact wording of the legislation in question as it is to appear on the ballot. Brad Finkeldei, elections commission chairman, said that when the commission received the ballots that Hoffman had printed they said "see reverse," but the rest of the wording of the bill was not printed on the back of the sheet. Hoffman said he taped the legislation to tables located in all the residence halls, and because of that he didn't print the legislation on both sides but on two separate sheets. "He made a very good case. I was sympathetic," said Sarah Deer, elections commission member, of Hoffman's argument to validate the sheets. "It was one of those hard decisions, but if we start allowing blank sheets then we set a precedent for the future." The elections commission invalidated all the signatures on those sheets. The elections commission approved the signatures that Hoffman collected after abiding by election-code regulations. "I'm not against a polling site on Daisy Hill but I believe that the method being used here is improper," Mike Walden, vice president and StudEx member, said. "I see it as political gerrymandering." However, the legislation is far from becoming law. Opposition to the bill is strong. Walden says he will object to the bill if it is brought up in StudEx. He said he thinks it's the job of the elections commission to make the changes regarding polling sites. "I don't think student senators should be making decisions that directly affect their own electability." Walden said. "I think it's important for students to know that even if the bill fails it will still be voted on as a referendum." When a student initiative that fails still appears on a ballot, all KU students have an opportunity to vote on it. In this case, a referendum would be held sometime next semester. If the majority of students vote for the bill, it goes back to Senate. Jayhawks jam Arizona UPSAS 4 AZONA 21 Forward Paul Pierce dunks as Arizona guard Mike Bibby and forward Bennett Davison watch.

The roof above the theater has been under renovation for nearly a month. While replacing the roof, the vapor barrier, which is the first level of water protection, was left unsealed in some areas. This allowed water to pass through the plaster fireproofing ceiling and pour onto the theater stage, said Rodger Orok, University director of facilities management. "We had significant damage to the stage floor and some paraphernalia and props on the stage and in the storage room below the stage," Oroke said. "We are working with the contractor and insurance company on determining the total damage." Mark Reiske, production manager of design and construction management, said that neglect of the vapor barrier probably caused the flooding. "Some of the seams on the barrier were probably just overlooked," he said. "They think they have it repaired water-tight now." There also has been leakage in the Inge Theatre scene shop, where sets are constructed and in the Crafton-Preyer Theatre's audience section, he said. Nintendo incident lands student in legal game Kansan staff report An 18-year-old KU student was arrested in McCollum Hall Monday evening after stealing a Nintendo 64 and games from a student's room, KU police said. The 18-year-old, a McCollum resident, reportedly stole the equipment between 9:30 and 11:30 p.m. Nov. 17. The crime was reported to the KU police department Nov. 18, police said. On Monday, police received a call from a McCollum staff member regarding filers in the residence hall advertising a Nintendo 64 and three games for sale. The staff reported the similarities between the theft and the filers to police. The police officer who had taken the original theft report interviewed the student advertising the equipment. The student then was arrested on one count of burglary and one count of theft. The student was taken to the Douglas County Jail and is being held on a $2,500 bond for burglary and a $500 bond for theft. The Nintendo 64 system belonged to the victim, but the three games had been rented from Hastings Books, Music and Video, 1900 W. 23rd St. 4 V Section A · Page 2 The University Daily Kansan Wednesday, December 3. 1997 Man's life woven into quilt Panel created to remember Lawrence man By Ann Premer apremer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer Family and friends of a Lawrence man who died of AIDS complications earlier this year dedicated a quilt panel in his memory yesterday at the Spencer Museum of Art. Doug Laine was 38 years old when he died. The quilt panel, which was made by his partner, is filled with photographs and images of Lane's life. His panel will join 70,000 other panels when it is taken to San Francisco later this month. "He said so many times that he didn't want to be forgotten," said Ruth Culvahouse, Douglas County AIDS Project volunteer. Culvahouse became a friend to Lane through her volunteer work. She helped him cook meals and said that Lane called her his mom away from home. She said that dedicating the quilt and seeing the other panels was difficult. "I always cry when I come and see the quilt because I remember that everyone of those people were special to someone." Culvahue said. The dedication was open to the public. About 40 people attended. This was the third year that a panel for the Names Project's AIDS quilt has been accepted at the art museum. The museum has displayed sections of the quilt since 1988. This year's quilt sections will be on display until Dec. 14. The two sections displayed at the museum each contain eight panels. Each panel represents a person from the area. RAYMOND S.

Commission dives into pool project By Ann Premer apremer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer City commissioners want an indoor aquatic center and have directed their staff to contact architects and designers for possible locations and designs. Commissioners decided to place the aquatic center at the top of their recreational priority list after a report from the mayor's task force on recreational alternatives at last night's meeting. The task force is made up of eight city employees including Mayor Bonnie Augustine and City Commissioner Marty Kennedy. Augustine and Kennedy said that the task force had decided on four possible priorities for the city's recreation. Those include an indoor aquatic center, a recreational center with walking and jogging paths, a skating park and additional bike and recreational paths. The skating park was made a priority along with the pool. Commissioners cited the success of the Lawrence Aquatic Center, 727 Kentucky St., as one reason for creating a year-round center. "We feel that a new indoor one would help." Kennedy said. "Our main purpose now is to find a location." Possible locations for the aquatic center that were discussed were Centennial Park, Ninth Street and Rockledge Road, and land adjacent to Free State High School. Commissioners also discussed the needs for a competitive pool and a family pool. Commissioners would like to build both pools. Skateboarders said that the skate park at Burcham Park did not meet their needs. "This place is too small," Benjamin Tuttle, Lawrence senior, said. Tuttle recommended that the city use the tennis courts at Centennial Park for a skate park. Mike Wilden, city manager, said that he would produce a staff report concerning the aquatic center and the skate park early next year. Former student promotes ACLU Group often takes unpopular stands By Ryan Koerner rkoerner@kansan.com Kansas staff writer "Times are tough for us right now because of the nature of the legislature," Barrish said. "It's very conservative." As a student at the University, Barrish protested the Vietnam War and brought Yasir Arafat, the leader of the Palestinian Liberation Organization, to campus. Now Barrish serves as the president of the Affiliate Kansas and Western Missouri chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union. Jay Barrish remembers a day when the University of Kansas was a hotbed for student activism. Now, he said, the campus is following the national trend toward conservatism. The University's ACLU chapter held a presentation by Barrish last night in the Big Twelve Room of the Kansas Union where Barrish shared the ACLU's view on civil liberties issues. About 30 students attended. "The first thing about the ACLU is that we are an advocacy group," Barrish said. "We stand up when one else will. We take stances that are unpopular, and "We stand up when no one else will. We take stances that are unpopular, and we defend the Bill of Rights." Jay Barrish Jay Barrish President, Affiliate Kansas and Missouri chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union we defend the Bill of Rights." It is important to understand that the ACLU deals only with issues in which the government plays a role. Barrish said. "We are interested in student rights because in the University's case it is an extension of the government. It uses government funds." Barrish said. "We believe in a university environment that provides a forum for student advocacy." Barrish cited particular student rights, such as freedom of speech, that the ACLU is concerned with protecting. He also gave numerous examples of how legal action and lobbying by the ACLU has caused change in government policy. "If someone doesn't yell about it, it will just slide," Barrish said. "If someone doesn't take a stand it will just happen."

The item was valued at $75. He drew from his experience as a member of the investigative committee of President Clinton's campaignfinance practices and focused the discussion on his frustrations concerning campaign-finance reform. Students interested in politics received personal insight into the government from U.S. Rep. Vince Snowbarger, R-Kan., last night. Snowbarger led a question-and answer forum at 7:30 p.m. for about 20 members of the Young Republicans and other interested community members in the Walnut Room at the Kansas Union. "We always think we're smart enough to stop people from cheating, but we're not," Snowbarger said. "Especially if we don't enforce the law." A bill in progress could help eliminate campaign-finance violations by placing criminal penalties on violators. Snowbarger said that spending time in jail would be more effective than fines because some candidates budget fines into their finances. Snowbarger was interested in "We always think we're smart enough to stop people from cheating, but we're not." Vince Snowbarger U. S. Representative speaking with the group and cooperated even after a long day, said Maggie Wilson, Lawrence junior and chairwoman for the Young Republicans. Earlier in the day, Snowbarger discussed White House fundraising with Attorney General Janet Reno. "It's nice for us as young people interested in politics to have this opportunity to ask questions and have our concerns answered," Wilson said. Some of the students will receive more of Snowbarger's first-hand insight. More than 10 students signed up last night to volunteer to help Snowbarger on future campaigns. Candidates have an opportunity to hear different perspectives when students work for their campaign, said Brad Burke, Topeka senior and a member of Snowbarger's campaign committee for two years.

Page Jr., coordinator for multicultural recruitment, talks with Aida Garcia, Lenexa sophomore and member of Sigma Lambda Gamma sorority. Page also is the adviser for the National Panhellenic Association, the governing body of historically African-American fraternities and sororites. Photo by Dave Morantz/KANSAN bers in Interfraternity Council and Panhellenic Association chapters. Amber Tetlow, greek liaison at the University of Colorado at Boulder, said that Colorado does not track the number of minority members in the Greek system because diversity was not an issue to be singled out. "I would venture to say that every chapter at CU has a minority member in their house." Tetlow said. "I would even say that all minority members who go through rush are given a bid if they want a bid. It's not an issue we concern ourselves with. It is more important that we make sure that minority members feel comfortable when they go through rush." Once minority members join a house they are not singled out or treated differently, said Leigh Bottiger, Lenene junior and Gamma Phi Beta president. "We have 132 minority members in our house," Bottiger said. "Because we are all women, we are all members of a minority. We don't single our members out. It's our national policy." Azadeh Pirzad, Lawrence junior and member of Sigma Kappa sorority, said that she didn't feel singled out because she was Iranian. "I think we're past that," she said. "It's just not like that anymore. I've never encountered any prejudice in the Greek system. It been a really positive experience for me, and I don't feel as if I've ever been treated any differently because of my nationality." Still, many minority students choose to join historically African-American or Hispanic chapters. The National Panhellenic Association, a historically African-American greek system, is essentially a service-based organization, said Robert Page, assistant director of admissions and adviser for National Panhellenic. The Interfraternity Council and Panhellenic Association are traditionally social organizations, although they sponsor philanthropy projects. Page said he thought there was a need for a separate associations for historically African-American and Hispanic fraternities and sororites because of the way they operate. "A lot of it is based off of housing and rush issues," he said. "The goals of different house are different." Page said that there was a need for the separate systems because National Panhellenic fraternities and sororites recruit members differently and do not have a traditional rush system. Page said most members of the historically African-American and Hispanic fraternities and sororities were recruited through informational meetings that are held throughout the year. Page also said the requirements for students interested in National Panhellenic fraternities and sororities were different from those for students interested in IFC and Panhellenic Association houses. There are no credit requirements to rush for IFC and Panhellenic. "There is more emphasis on community service and on the involvement in academics in National Panhellenic," Page said. "Students have to wait until they have at least 16 credit hours and a 3.0 GPA." Greg Smith is the president of Kappa Alpha Psi, a historically African-American fraternity that has nine members, all of whom are African-American. Smith, Wichita junior, said the separate systems were necessary. "While I do think that there is a need for the two organizations, I don't think that that should serve as a barrier between the historically Black fraternities and sororities and the historically white fraternities and sororities." he said. IFC, Panhellenic and National Panhellenic have started to meet once a week to discuss how to strengthen and unify the different systems. Jennifer Keith, Kansas City, Kan., senior and president of Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority, said that she had attended one meeting with all the governing bodies of fraternities and sororities. "We talked and answered a lot of questions that we had about each other to help end some misconceptions and ideas about what each of us do," she said. Living on campus pre-empts racism Continued from page 1A Pinkbraids Clothing broadened it so that it can be everything." She said her floor was a good example of diversity because residents there include a blind student, a student with a prosthetic leg, Asian-American, African-American and international students and students who are Catholic, Jewish and Baptist. The residence halls also attract a high number of international students. Four percent, or 147 of the 3,353 students living in residence halls, are international students, according to International Student Services. Scholarship halls have the lowest number of international students among University student housing with 38 out of 435 residents. A total of 1,519 international students attend the University. Jayhawker Towers apartments have 123 international students out of 698 total residents, and Stouffer Place apartments house 106 international residents out of the 266 students who live there. Askia Ahmad, Wichita sophomore, says living in a residence hall has broadened his ideas of diversity. Ahmad's roommate in Oliver Hall is a caucusian student, and he says their differences have brought something unique to their friendship. Photo by Geoff Kriener / KANSAN The Department of Student Housing does not keep an exact count of the number of minority students living on campus. Housing applications do not ask for that information, said Ken Stoner, director of the department of student housing. But because of the many backgrounds of student-housing residents, the department requires resident assistants to devote one-sixth of their floor's programming to cultivating diversity. Resident assistants also must complete cultural sensitivity training. Training includes a "tunnel of oppression" in which students experience what might be considered an oppressive situation, said Randy Timm, assistant director of student housing. The tunnel includes listening to tape recordings of slang terms to recognize the negativity of the terms, viewing video clips depicting hate crimes and bigotry and participating in role-playing situations. It ended with Martin Luther King, Jr.'s "I Have a Dream" speech. Brenda Chung, a resident assistant on Howze's floor at Lewis Hall, organized a "diversity night" earlier this semester where residents talked about their backgrounds. "Our RA does a great job as far as trying to get everybody together," Howze said. "We in the residence halls are trying to teach people how to get along with other people's differences instead of just looking past them," said Laura Bennett, president of the Association of University Residence Halls. "I don't know where else you would get that." Creating a definition for diversity is not easy, said Scott Strawn, complex director at Ellsworth and Hashinger residence halls. "We need to embrace diversity in the broadest sense of the word," Strawn said. "It may be ethnicity, or the families that we grow up in, the differences that we all have. Some people see it very narrowly as ethnicity, but it goes much more than that. It is very, very encompassing and broad." Howze said that she did not make a big issue out of living on campus as a minority student. "Being Black here is as hard as living," Howze said, "I deal with people who don't realize that some of the statements they say are racist, but you have to deal with it." Askia Ahmad, Wichita sophomore, said that living in a residence hall broadened a person's ideas of diversity. Ahmad is an African-American student whose roommate is Caucasian. "We both brought something unique into the friendship," Ahmad said. "It seems like if I want to open myself up to different nationalities, everyone else follows that pattern. Living in this place opens you up." - Running out of space in your apartment or dorm room? - Sick of sleeping on your worn out bed? - Or just wanting a new desk to study on?

San Pace 1B Kansan’ editor fired by board In an ousted position, issuesester Andrew Salger / KANSAN Feedback 'Kansan' editor receives support from readers As parents of a KU senior, we are appalled at the "Kansan" Advisory Board's recent兴iting of Spencer Duncan as the editor. Double entendre headlines in the student paper seems to be a rather lame premise for firing the editor. Firing Mr. Duncan, even though there had been no earlier communication between the board and him regarding these issues, reflects poorly upon the management practices of the University and likely violates University personnel procedures. The precipitous removal of Mr. Duncan, with only eight remaining issues in his term as editor, because of alleged fears of action that he might take is rageous. It is the punishment of a person in anticipation that he might do something inappropriate in the future. Quite a concept for an honored academic institution to teach its students. For a school that claims to be a high quality source of education and training for aspiring professional journalists, this action sends a chilling message to present and future members of the "Kansan" staff: toe the line or be prepared to feel the institutional wrath of the University. Dennis and Margo Murphey Cincinnati, Ohio I would like to offer my support for Spencer Duncan. I believe he performed well in a very tough situation as the editor of one of the best college newspapers in the nation. The actions of the "Kansan" board are extreme in the circumstances of the situation. I would like to know why the board did not apparently even consider a simple reprimand in regard to what the board calls "graphic material." As a member of the KU community, I cannot help but to be concerned with the extreme action of the board. Hayden Colleen Murphey Lawrence senior Lawrence senior The last time I wrote to the "Kansan was the first time I had ever written to any paper. It was in response to letters in the Feedback column. The emotions and viewpoints pouring out of that column caused me to share my own opinion. The outcries and whines that caused me to get involved and have my say were in response to headlines, articles and captions appearing in the "Kansan." I think that's great. That's what a paper should do—get people to think, make decisions, share viewpoints, involve the whole community. That's what controversy does and that's what the "Kansan" has done for me this semester. If firing the editor responsible for this is going to put an end to controversial headlines, articles, captions — it's the end of a good paper. Christine Barb KU graduate and employee at the adminis- trative office at the Kansas Union I have found it necessary to respond to the firing of the "Kansan" editor, Spencer Duncan. It is alarming to me as a student of this University that an action this severe and harsh would be taken for such vague and trivial reasons. Not only have I not been offended by any of the published articles, I have found the paper to be quite excellent. I have as much respect for the "Kansan" and the journalists who produce it today as I did when I first arrived at the University. However, I am dismayed that any University would engage in such a blatant act of censorship. This is a place of learning, not a place where ideas and free thoughts are repressed. The creative license given to the editor of a paper like the "Kansan" should not be restricted. Once the board is allowed to fire an editor because he chose to express his ideas, we are all in danger. Keith Henderson Topeka sophomore Congratulations to the "Kansan" board for teaching Spencer Duncan a valuable lesson: The "Kansan" isn't supposed to be a creative, student geared paper — instead it's merely a tool for the University's public relations department. Because Duncan and his staff chose to take the paper in a more creative and less rigid and traditional direction this semester, the board did what it had to do to protect the University and its students — it fired Duncan. Wrong, what the board actually did was promote a personal and vindictive agenda in removing Spencer as the editor. In the process it also trampled on professional ethics and Spencer's rights as both an employee and student of the University. Among the problems surrounding his removal is the fact that the board failed to approach Duncan, previous to the day he was removed, concerning the identified problems that caused his removal. Firing Spencer is a very unprofessional way of handling the correction of these problems (assuming these are the real reasons for his dismissal). Spencer's firing also raises some concern about apparent violations of his student rights and violations of University policies. Specifically, Spencer had the right as an employee of the University to be informed of grievances against him in writing, which never occurred. This policy exists to prevent arbitrary actions against students and employees, such as this exact action by the Board. Clearly the board's actions were unjustified and inappropriate. So what can be done? Well if it is found that this action was a violation of Spencer's student rights, the Student Senate has the option of withdrawing its funding of the "Kansan." Although I personally don't want this to happen, I do think the Senate has a responsibility to use this leverage to demand that the Board reinstate Spencer as editor for the remainder of the semester. Senate must protect our rights as members of this student body and this situation clearly demands immediate intervention on their part. The semester is coming to an end and time is running out to rectify the situation, so I (as do a majority of students) call for Spencer Duncan's immediate reinstatement as editor.

Examining Firing of 'Kansan' editor leaves many questions Removing Duncan wrong we are left to decipher the lesson to be learned. W hy did this happen and who is going to benefit from this decision? These are the questions in our news. These are the questions in our newsroom following the Nov. 24 firing of Spencer Duncan, our editor. It is a question asked after a decision by the "Kansan" Advisory Board — made up of three journalism professors, the student editor, student business manager and one member of Student Senate, who was not in attendance at the meeting. Unfortunately, it is also a question based on the Bradley Brooks brooks@kansan.com little information available about this firing — and for a group of student journalists in the business of passing on information, this is a frustrating time. The reasons for Duncan's firing were vague and have left room for newspaper staffers and the public to speculate. And speculation about what actually caused the board to take this action can do nothing but harm the "Kansan." Unfortunately, it doesn't look like we'll get much more information from the board. Duncan's father, Robert E. Duncan, an attorney in Topeka, sent a letter to board members pointing out alleged illegalities in the board's action and wrote "I suggest that your board make no more statements regarding Spencer Duncan." This legal clamp is essentially a gag order for the board and leaves me in the tough situation of only having one side of the story. With little exception, there is no outrage in the newsroom regarding this situation. No one, to my knowledge, thinks the board made the right decision, but we're not threatening a walkout or a picket line. So we are left to examine what message this action was meant to send and how it will be interpreted by those of us who staff this newspaper. Personally, I don't know if much is going to change — the lack of outrage is an indicator of this. There is certainly the danger that future editors will feel the pressure to print the "right thing" — whatever that might be. But I hope that won't happen. I hope that if it does, the other members of the "Kansan" staff demand an editor who doesn't serve as a puppet to a quality-control board. That is an outcome that no one in this newsroom wants, and I really think no one on the board wants either. Ideally, the "Kansan" is going to continue to cover the events on this campus in whatever manner it sees fit. It now may be a little smarter about its work, but it should never be more timid about its work. If the latter happens, then a great disservice will be done to the students and to the ideas of free speech. Did Spencer deserve to be fired? He would have had he been at a professional newspaper with a general public audience. But this is not a professional newspaper and you are not a general audience. This is a paper largely written for people between the ages of 18 and 22. It is up to you to decide if "Blow me," or "Nice melons" is worthy of one losing their job. Personally, I was embarrassed on the days these types of things appeared in the "Kansan." I and Jason Strait, the other editorial page editor, read every angry letter regarding the offensive material, and we often agreed with what our readers were complaining about. But the board's action was the wrong one to take. Spencer has said that he was never warned by the board that they were this upset with his performance. I'm sure Spencer knew that some of his decisions were not that well thought out — we receive a daily critique from our general manager, and staffers are not hesitant to share opinions of their newspaper's performance. I know that I told him on occasion when I didn't like something that appeared in the paper. How bad will Spencer's firing hurt him? He is left with one hell of a mark against him that could hinder him professionally. I really don't know what lesson he can take away from this as he thinks he is not in the wrong. And, with the speed and severity of the board's action, Spencer was not given much of a chance to learn from his mistakes. Are the staffers on the "Kansas" benefitted from this? No. We are aware that we are held responsible for our work but now there is the added pressure of maintaining the board's guidelines — which are not explicitly known by any one but the board. Are you, the reader, benefitted? If you had a beef with Spencer you're probably thinking, "I told you so," but you are in no way benefitted. Mistakes will always be a part of this paper and someone is always going to be offended. That is the manner of a newspaper. Maybe the offenses won't be as blatant, but there will be offenses nonetheless. Where will the line be drawn between an offense for which one can be fired and one that is justified? There is simply no direct benefit from this action. It was made too quickly, too late in the semester, by too few people and has not been fully explained. What myself, my colleagues, and you as a reader who deserves news with no restraint must decide is what to learn from this. That is, after all, what college is supposed to be about. Brooks is a Hill City senior in journalism and an editorial page editor. Newspaper should continually ask itself, 'Is this good enough?' A As you may have heard, Spencer Duncan lost his job last week as editor of the "Knoxon" Newsweek journal. can lost his job last week as editor of the "Kansan." Newspeople try not to make news, just gather and present it. But every once in a while, we find ourselves the subject of the story. This was certainly the case last week: I made page two after breaking my neck living through a car accident, but my friend and colleague upstaged me Andy Obermueller andy@kanaa.com P. M. HOPKINS by getting fired as editor of the "Kansan," news of which ran page one in the "Kansan" and also appeared in local news media. just letting him complete his term. The "Kansan" Advisory Board decided Duncan's performance as editor was unacceptable and that leaving him in his position, even for only eight issues, would harm the "Kansan" more than The message they sent to Duncan was and is simple: Not good enough. This was not the first time Duncan had been taken to task for his performance. After "inappropriate" inclusions in the "Kansan" — the infamous "Nice melons" photo kicker and "Blow Me" headline — coupled by concerns about management style, the board had enough. Whether it is the board's job to serve as the "Kansan" quality-control police is up to interpretation. But what is not debatable is the "Kansan" staff does its best to put out a good paper, and it does that most days. Some days are better than others, but we aren't laying pipe here, folks, and in the creative process, quality fluctuates. You have to take the highs with the lows to determine overall quality: bad headlines make neither a bad paper nor a bad editor, they only bring up or bring down the overall picture. What everyone seems shocked about is that out of the blue, the board swooped down and held Duncan to a seemingly impossible standard. They simply said, "Not good enough" and kicked him out of his job, judging him purely subjectively. But the board's action should have surprised no one: just because we think we can't be fired doesn't mean we can't be. Just because we think no one is watching doesn't mean that no one is. When we take responsibility, we are held accountable. Our actions have repercussions and those must not be ignored. We should always behave as though tomorrow we will be held against an impossible standard. It's the best way to push yourself to perform at your highest possible level. Does it seem unfair when your good friend gets the shaft? Of course. But to learn from adversity is to triumph, and triumphing over this situation means that every staff member of the "Kansan" will always ask, "Is this good enough?" and "How can I make it better?" It may seem like a tough job to have "Could I defend this headline against the 'Kansan' board?" looming over you, but that is the reality of the responsibility the editors take. It doesn't mean you should be stifled, it means you have to be attentive and to invest in every little detail that you do. My problem with the board's action is only its timing. In newspapers and in life, you don't ask "Is it good enough?" at the end, you ask it continually during the process. At the end, there isn't anything you can do except regret your mistakes when you should have been correcting them and learning from them all along. Metaphorically speaking, boards will swoop out of the blue sometimes, and that should remind us that what we do—and how we do it—matters. And losing an editorship is a small price to pay if Spencer can learn that truth, because few people ever do. The "Kansan," its staff, KU students and certainly Spencer Duncan, will all keep on going. But with a little luck, they'll pay more attention to how they are going and ask, "Is it good enough?" And if anyone of them reaches a little higher because of this, then that's not a bad outcome. Obermuller is an Liberal, Kan., senior in journalism. .

The opera will be produced during the first week of February. Photo by Auaushus Anthony Piazza/Kansan Jennifer A. Yeoman jyeoman@kansan.com Kansan staff writer What they don't see is the team of 20 students and 7 program assistants who spend three to six weeks setting the scenes for the twelve stage productions each year. David Wanner, scene-shop manager, oversees the assembly of all sets and the people who build the sets. Wanner began working for the University in August of 1996. Since then, he has built sets for 15 shows. "I don't think that people understand how much time it takes to build a set," Wanner said. "The audience walks in, and they see the stage set, and they don't think about all of the time it takes to put them together." During the semester, Wanner and his crew may work on three or four productions at a time. Wanner said that the "Bus Stop" set was difficult to build because it is a traveling show and that the set had to be broken down into small pieces. Parts of the set were ruined this weekend. Rain seeped through the roof of the Crafton-Preyer Theatre, destroying some of the pieces that were sitting on the stage. "The set sat in water over the weekend," he said. "Parts of it will need to be repainted." The leaking ceiling also has meant that Wanner and his crew Wanner said that the set for "Die Fledermaus" would be difficult to build because everything was in such large scale. are not able to work on the set for "Die Fleddermaus," an opera that will open in February. Wanner said that the set for the opera would be completed on schedule despite the current situation. Wanner said that the end result was worth all of the problems. "It's neat to see things go from paper to being built. I get to see the rewards of our efforts pretty quickly." KJHK auction promises variety By Corrie Moore by Corte Moore cmoore@kansan.com Kansan staff writer KJHK radio is having its annual Holiday Gift Auction at 7 tonight in the Kansas Union Ballroom to raise money for the station's operating expenses. THE HAWK KJHX 90.7 Gary Hawke, the station's general manager, said workers at KJHK and students enrolled in Journalism 649, Media Sales, started working on the auction at the beginning of the semester. They have collected more than $20,000 worth of merchandise donated from companies, Hawke said. There are about 130 items being auctioned, including Dr. Martens shoes donated by Footprints, computer software donated by Graham's Computers, Lawrence Athletic Club memberships, an acoustic guitar, a saxophone and original glassware from Free State Glass. Jay Black, Leavenworth graduate student and graduate teaching assistant for KJHK, said that this was the most merchandise KJHK had raised in the eight years it had sponsored the auction. "There's literally something for everybody," Black said. with some items as high as $600. In the past, KJHK has raised as much as $8,000 from the auction. Hawk said that 25 students were working on the auction. The 13 students from the media sales class would get a percentage of their grade from the amount of merchandise they had gathered for the auction. Hawke said the auction should last about three hours. Merchandise starts at a retail price of $40 "I have really high expectations," said David Lichius, Overland Park senior, who is enrolled in the class and is production director for KJHK. "We have a lot of really cool stuff." Black said that in the past, many people have come to the auction from the Lawrence community. He said he hoped KU students would take advantage of the inexpensive items this year. "This year it looks like it's going to be the biggest one we've ever had," Black said.

For more information 'Stomp' film to be unveiled By Corrie Moore cmoore@kansan.com Kansan staff writer Student Union Activities, along with Network Event Theater, is showing a free premiere screening of "Stomp Out Loud" at 8 tonight at Woodruff Auditorium in the Kansas Union. The documentary is based on the internationally acclaimed off.Broadway hit "Stomp." The documentary shows live footage from performances as well as behind-the-scenes footage. "It italk about the show itself and how it evolved," said Ana Calderon, Shawnee senior and SUA feature-films coordinator. Sheila Kloeckorf, vice president for campus operations at Network Event Theater, said the film was different from the original play because it showed live footage of a new production filmed in New York. "If people saw the play and loved it, they're going to freak out over this," she said. Luke Cresswell and Steve McNicholas created the play, and they also directed the film. "Stomp" has won the prestigious Obie and Drama Desk Awards, and the eight-member production of "Stomp" received excellent reviews from critics, Kloefkorn said. Calderon said that SUA chose to show the film because students seemed to be interested in the play. "Stomp" came to the Lied Center for two nights last year and sold out both nights. The film lasts about an hour and will premiere on HBO Dec. 6. STOMP AIRS ON HBO SATURDAY, DECEMBER 6, 8PM ET/PT HBO IT'S NOT TV IT'S HBO "We're getting a chance to see it almost a week before it's on HBO," Calderon said. Kloeferkorn said that Network Event Theater had a partnership with HBO, which helped put "Stomp Out Loud" together. Students can pick up vouchers at the SUA box office starting at 8 a.m. today. Student Union Activities and Network Event Theatre will present "Stomp Out Loud," a documentary about the popular off-Broadway hit "Stomp."

The Jayhawks led by as many as 20 points with 10 minutes left to play. But the Wildcats went on an 18-3 run during a five-minute stretch and closed to within 82-80 with two minutes to play. Arizona came within a point of the Jayhawks, 88-87 with 14.7 seconds to play, but a basket by guard Kenny Gregory helped seal the game. Arizona guard Mike Bibby missed a three-point shot as time expired. Guard Billy Thomas said the team could not relinquish the lead and perhaps the game. "During that last timeout we huddled together convinced that we would not lose that game," Thomas said. "We played too hard to let this game slip away. We were not going to lose." Kansas seized momentum early in the game with an 11-0 run and built a 31-23 lead late in the first half. After a three-point shot by Thomas gave the Jayhawks an 11-point lead at 36:25, they maintained a double-digit lead until the six-minute mark of the second half. Kansas held a 47-32 halftime advantage. But in the second half, Arizona forced Kansas into bad passes and poor shots using a full-court press. The Wildcats trimmed away at the lead slowly before they exploded for the late 18-3 rally. Kansas coach Roy Williams said he was to blame for the Jayhawks mistakes late in the game. "I had not prepared them for crucial situations late in the game and, as the head coach, that is part of my responsibility." Williams said. Forward Reef LaFrentz scored a career-high 32 points and added eight rebounds in leading the Jayhawks. He was cut on the head when fouled during the final seconds and needed stitches after the game. Forward Paul Pierce had 17 points, seven rebounds and five assists, most of which came before he sprained his right ankle midway through the second half. The injury was not considered serious, and he was able to return to the game. ARIZONA 42 KANSAS 34 Williams said the game was the Kansas' best performance in its seven games. "That was as good a 40 minutes as our team has played all season." Williams said. "I was pleased with our effort, though I wish we could have played better in the second half."

Photo by Geoff Krieger/KANSAN worker Halbleib: from player to commentator By Penny Walker sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter Angie Halbleib, Kansas' most prolific three-point shooter, is going to spend this season on the sidelines, but she won't be sitting on the bench. Halbleib will be behind the microphone as the color commentator for the Jayhawk Radio Network, and coach Marian Washington is glad she's doing it. Halbleib, a fifth-year senior from Middleton, Wis., said Washington always had suggested she get involved with radio commentary after her four years of eligibility were up, but Halbleib had never thought seriously about it. "It makes me smile to see her over there." Washington said. "As the season approached, I knew I didn't want to be away from basketball, so I told them I'd do it." Halleble said. There was no real training involved, she said, although the technical details, such as fitting in local breaks, took some getting used to. Former Kansas women's basketball player Angie Halbleib prepares to go on the air with her KLWN broadcast partner Dave Sharp. Halbleib, a fifth-year student, is working toward her dearest in secondary math education. Photo by Geoff Kreiger/KANSAN Halbleib's major is secondary math education, and she also hopes to coach high school basketball someday. Although she still is learning the rules of broadcast journalism, Halbleib said that objectivity wasn't a problem. "Pretty much all you need to know is the game, and I've played the game all my life," said Halbleib, who began playing organized basketball in third grade. "Since we're the Jayhawk Radio Network, we can be partial," she said. "I'm not too partial, but of course I want Kansas to win." One of the benefits of having a former "She's fun," Washington said. "I think she's extremely intelligent. She knows the game very well, and Angie has a way about her. She can be very direct without being offensive." player comment on the game is the insight she can offer, Halbleib said. Washington would agree. "When you have to listen, certainly you want someone who knows the game, but you also want someone who can identify with the players." Washington said. "I'm going to be at the game anyway, so I might as well get paid to do it," Halbleib said. "And I enjoy giving my opinion — everyone knows that." Halbleib is perfect for the job, Washington said. That directness is one of the things that convinced Halbleib to agree to the radio post. Radio coverage of Kansas women's basketball wasn't always what it is now. Washington said that the women's program owed a great deal to Peg Wittmer, a person who pressed for the coverage when working years ago for KLZR. "She was helping make it possible for us to even have radio coverage when no one cared." Washington said. "She never professed to be an expert in the game, but she had a love for our program and for women's basketball." "She literally forced them to have my games on," Washington said. "She went out and sold sponsors to help make it possible." After spending years covering the women's games, Wittmer is still involved with the radio component of the women's program. Halbleib can identify with that love of going to be a good team." the women's basketball program. The best part about doing the radio coverage, she said, is remaining part of the program. "They're young," Halibble said. "It's a little frustrating at times. You want to get out there and help the ones you out, but they'll get into the swing of things." Although being close to the game without actually playing wasn't as difficult as she expected, Halbleib said there were times she wanted to pitch in and join the team on the court. She and the other fifth-year basketball players can't jump into the fray during games, but they do come to practice to help out and to provide the team with added challenge. Although the practices allow the fifth-year players to stay close to the program, Halbleib said there were certain perks involved with not being a member of the team anymore. "IIf don't want to show up one day," Hallebib said with a laugh, "I don't have to." AP top 25 1. Duke (6-0) did not play. Next: at North Carolina-Greensboro today. 2.

Navy seniors will grab chance to tackle Army ANNAPOLIS, Md. — For every victory against Army, a Navy letter-winner receives a star to pin on the golden N on his sweater. Note: Horoscopes have no basis in scientific fact and should be read for entertainment purposes only. The 28 seniors on Navy's football team have yet to receive one of those special stars, and defensive tackle David Viger is more than a little eager to get one. "We're one of the only varsity teams without one," Viger said, pointing to the unadorned letter on his sweater. "I think about it all the time. If we don't beat Army at least once, then you could say that we failed." SCORPIO On Saturday at Giants Stadium, Navy's seniors get their final chance to defeat the Cadets. The Midshipmen (6-4) have lost five After struggling for the better part of a decade, Navy has come a long way during the past three years under coach Charlie Weatherble. The Midshipmen went 9-3 last year and beat California in the Aloha Bowl, and they already are assured a second straight winning season for the first time since 1982. "It means a lot more this year," said senior linebacker Travis Cooley. straight to Army (4-6) since 1991. 鱼 OHIO STATE Goat A But one thing is missing from the list of accomplishments. One very big item. "From the first day you arrive and they shave your head as a freshman, everyone talks about beating Army," Viger said. "They beat it into you: 'Beat Army, Beat Army, Beat Army.'" Tackle gets suspended for alleged purse theft Ohio State's sports information department issued a statement that said Breed was suspended indefinitely pending the outcome of an investigation. Breed, a 6-foot-7, 305-pound junior, appeared in nine games and had three solo and three assisted tackles. He transferred to Ohio State from City College of San Francisco. COLUMBUS, Ohio — Ohio State coach John Cooper has suspended defensive tackle Paul Breed. Breed Monday for allegedly taking the purse of a woman he sat next to on a Delta Air Lines flight from San Francisco. was arrested in an alleged p ur s e snatching at Cincinnati- northern Kentucky International Airport. Ted Bushelman, an airport representative, said Breed was arrested on a theft charge about 7:30 a.m. Breed was released at 10 p.m. Monday after posting $500 bond, said a Boone County (Ky.) Jail employee who would not give his name. An airport police officer reported seeing Breed entering a bathroom carrying a purse, Bushelman said. The officer said Breed had $315 that had been removed from the purse. LAUSANNE, Switzerland —The International Olympic Committee brokered an agreement yesterday to prevent the Olympic Games from becoming a battleground between rival sporting goods companies like Nike and Reebok. The IOC and the World Federation of the Sporting Goods Industry signed an Olympic Marketing Code setting rules for advertising and promotion during the games. Bushelman said the Delta flight arrived in Cincinnati about 6 a.m. and Breed and the woman parted to catch their connecting flights. The woman fell asleep at her gate and discovered, when she woke up, that her purse was gone. The accord seeks to control the influence and activities of the manufacturers while continuing to allow them to sponsor Olympic teams and the Olympic movement as a whole. "The Olympic Games is the biggest showcase for the sporting goods industry, and we don't want brand wars during the 16 days of the games," said Michael Payne, IOC marketing director. Bushelman said he was unsure if the purse was taken on the plane or in the airport. Officials seek to limit influence at Olympics negotiations, the accord was signed by IOC president Juan Antonio Samaranch and Stephen Rubin, president of the sporting goods federation. After more than three years of DeBartolo said that pending the outcome of the investigation, his sister, Marie Denise DeBartolo York, will take over as chairman of the 49ers and Carmen Policy will continue as president and chief executive officer. The code addresses some of the commercially inspired behavior that occurred during the Barcelona Games in 1992 and the Atlanta Games in 1996. The newspapers reported that DeBartolo and former Louisiana Gov, Edwin Edwards are among at least six people notified they soon will be indicted by a federal grand jury. The rules are intended to prevent a recurrence of the scene in 1992, when Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson and other members of basketball's Dream Team objected to wearing Reebok warmup suits on the medal stand. The players, who had personal contracts with Nike, put the U.S. flag over the Reebok symbol. "These charges simply are not true," DeBartolo said in a statement. "I look forward to the time when I can address these issues and tell my side of the story." SAN FRANCISCO — Edward DeBartol Jr., whose San Francisco 49ers won five Super Bowls under his leadership, stepped down as owner yesterday after two Louisiana newspapers reported he would be indicted for gambling fraud. San Francisco owner relinquishes reins Policy will continue to run the 49ers' day-to-day operations and replace DeBartolo as the team's representative to the NFL for league business.

Split polls in 1900 and 1992, and Penn State's undefeated (but not national championship) team in 1994-1994 have served as fuel for the proponents of the playoff system. I always was against the playoff system because I enjoyed the bowls too much and thought that more than a handful of teams deserved to play in the postseason. Several things in college football this fall have changed my mind. First, I think it is ridiculous that UCLA is ahead of Washington State in both polls. Not only does Washington State have a better record, but the Cougars defeated the Bruins earlier this season. This illustrates a problem most voters have: Who deserves to be ranked higher, the team with the better record or the team that is playing better? Second, I feel that voters place too much emphasis on when a game is played. A perfect example of this is the Florida State-Tennessee situation. Both teams are 10-1, and both lost at Florida. Florida State led most of the way before losing by only three, 32-29. Tennessee was beaten soundly by 12, 33-21. It appears that the quality of the game is less important to the voters than when the game was played. Tennessee played at Florida in September, while Florida State faced the Gators in late November. However, Tennessee is one place ahead of Florida State in both polls. This slight by the voters could cost the Seminoles a shot at the national title unless either Nebraska or Tennessee loses this weekend. These are just two glaring problems with the current system. The NCAA believes that the Super Alliance, which will begin next year, will solve these problems. Sure, a single national championship game will work with two undefeated teams, but what happens if there are three undefeated teams or if there is only one undefeated team? Who will decide which teams get to play for the title? hands of the pollsters again, which is exactly what the NCAA wants to get away from. So what is the solution? I recently devised a system called the Corcoran Alliance that I think would produce a national champion BENNIE BROWN while maintaining the bowls system. There are now 20 Division I A bowl games. My plan would be to take the 15 bowls with the largest payout and set up a 16-team tournament. Corcoran sports @kansan.com The decision will rest in the The SEC ACC. Big 12. Big 10, Pac-10, WAC, Big East and Conference USA champions would gain automatic bids. The remaining eight spots would be awarded in a similar fashion to the way the NCAA basketball tournament committee awards at-large bids. The tournament would work as follows: Two teams would face off in the Alamo Bowl, with the winner advancing to the Citrus Bowl. This process would continue until two teams square off for the national title. The bowls would rotate which round of the tournament is played at a particular bowl site to appease all of the bowls. The remaining five bowls could continue to exist and be a one-game reward for teams ranked 17 through 26. This would be like the NIT in basketball. The percentage of teams making the Corcoran Alliance would be close to the percentage of teams in the NCAA basketball tournament, and the percentage of teams in the other bowls would be close to the percentage of teams in the NIT. Although this system might not be perfect, I think it would take some of the subjectivity out of deciding a national champion. But then what would we have to complain about?

MEADOWBROOK 15th & Crestline Mon.-Fri. 8-5:30 Sat 10-4 Sun 1-4 Section B·Page 6 The University Daily Kansan Wednesday, December 3, 1997 Associated Press selects All-Big 12 football team The Associated Press DALLAS — Nebraska dominated the 1997 Associated Press All-Big 12 football team with six first-team players. Texas A&M, which will face the Cornhuskers in Saturday's conference championship game, had three first-team honorees. N twice Second ranked Nebraska was represented by offensive linemen Aaron Taylor and Eric Anderson, defensive linemen Jason Peter and Grant Wistrom, defensive back Ralph Brown and running back Ahman Green. The 14th-ranked Aggies who were chosen include offensive lineman Steve McKinney, linebacker Dat Nguyen and punter Shane Lechler. A balloting of Big 12 writers came up with a dream backfield of Ahman Green of Nebraska, Ricky Williams of Texas and De'Mond Parker of Oklahoma. Williams ran for more than 200 yards in six games and led the nation in rushing and scoring. Both Williams and Green are juniors. Parker, a sophomore, missed the last part of Oklahoma's season with an injury. Corby Jones, a junior from Missouri, beat out Nebraska's Scott Frost for the first-string quarterback berth. Jones led the Big 12 in total offense at 231 yards per game. The Tigers went to their first bowl in 14 seasons. The offensive line is huge. The 289-pound McKinney is the only first-teamer weighing less than 300 pounds. The other picks are Nebraska's Taylor and Anderson, Mike Morris of Missouri and Todd Weiner of Kansas State. The tight end was Alonzo Mayes of Oklahoma State. Mayes missed the last month of the season because of an injury but was impressive during his time on the field. The wide receiver was Tyrone Watley of Iowa State,who led the league in catches and touchdowns. The place-kicker was Martin Gramatica of Kansas State, who hit 19 of 20 field goal attempts. 12 CONFERENCE Wistrom and Peter were joined BIG 12 on the defensive line by Texas Tech's Montae Reagor, a junior who had 97 tackles. Nguyen, who had 114 tackles, including 20 in a win against Colorado, led a linebacker crew that included Jeff Kelly and Mark Simoneau of Kansas State and Ron Warner of Kansas. The secondary included R.W. McQuarters of Oklahoma State, Ryan Sutter of Colorado and Brown of Nebraska. McQuarters, a junior, is one of the most exciting players on the Big 12 team. He was second in balloting to Ben Kelly of Colorado as the all-conference kick returner. McQuarters played some receiver and both safety and cornerback. He was the league's leading punt returner, with a 16-vard average. Lechler's average of 47 yards per punt was second-best in the nation. Kansas State's quarterback Michael Bishop was named the newcomer of the year. Green Bay packing luck By Dave Goldberg The Associated Press Champs aim to repeat success by adding to team Two weeks ago, the Green Bay Packers surrendered 467 yards and 41 points as the Indianapolis Colts got their only win this season. San Francisco, meanwhile, was rolling to its 10th-straight win. Two weeks later, the momentum has reversed. The Packers, having broken losing streaks to the Cowboys and at Minnesota, look like Super Bowl winners again. The 'Niners are reeling from a 44-9 drubbing by Kansas City. Moreover, the 49ers know that all 11 wins have been against teams that now have losing records and that they have lost to the only winners they have faced — the Bucs on opening day and the Chiefs. "We've got to beat a winning team," coach Steve Mariucci said. They will get their chance Sunday at home against the Vikings, then the Broncos come to San Francisco. But even a win against Minnesota might not be convincing because the Vikings (9-5) have lost three consecutive games, including Monday night at home to Green Bay. That's the other side of the coin. The Green Bay defense not only throttled the Vikings, holding them to 144 yards in three quarters and 253 for the game, but also the Packers got the breaks. The biggest was the interception Corey Fuller dropped one play before Bret Favre threw an 18-yard TD pass to Robert Brooks, which put the Packers ahead to stay. "Some times you guess right, and you make a play." Favre said. "I didn't that time. I didn't see Corey Fuller, and he should have picked it off." It could be his game for the rest of the season. It could be their game for the rest of the season. In the two weeks after the 41-38 disaster in Indianapolis, they defeated Dallas for the first time in eight games under Mike Holmgren and won in Minnesota, where Holmgren was 0-5. The combined score: 72-28 The win against the Vikings ensured Green Bay a Wild Card. If they win in Tampa on Sunday — no easy matter — they would clinch the NFC Central. They are also right on San Francisco's heels for home-field advantage. Are this year's Packers as good as last year's? Take it from the man who built them. "I think we're better in some spots and not as good in others," general manager Ron Wolf said after Monday night's game. "But overall, it's a wash. I think if we're not, we're getting there." Wolf now is concentrating on picking up extra parts for the playoffs. Last week, he signed Mark Collins, the defensive back who played 11 years for the Giants and Chiefs. Collins, who won two Super Bowl rings with New York, adds experience to a secondary that lost starting cornerback Craig Newsome for the season with a knee injury in the opener. Wolf chuckled when he was asked if Collins, who was inactive Monday night, had been signed specifically for the playoffs. No, the Packers aren't thinking back to Indianapolis.

Yeoman rkoerner@kansan.com, golson@kansan.com jyeeman@kansan.com Kansas staff writers As part of his mission to diversify the University of Kansas, Chancellor Robert Hemenway wants to focus on faculty. Hemenay, during his first year at the University in 1995, set a goal to increase the number of minority faculty from 125 to 200 by the year 2000. Since Hemenway's speech, the number of minority faculty has increased by nine to 134. The number has not increased in the last year. The University would have to hire 66 minority faculty members in the next three years to reach Hemenway's goal. Jim Kitchen, dean of students, said he thought that a diverse faculty was important for the University and that the chancellor's goal of 200 faculty minority members by the year 2000 was achievable. The University's nine professional schools and the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences have said that they are trying to diversify their faculty members. "I like hearing him say that because I am one of those who strongly believes that it starts at the top and works down," Kitchen said. "Too often you hear people say 'Well, let's try to make it happen.' Down in the trenches, you can't make it happen if you don't have the support at the top. If you've got the support at the top working down, it is going to happen." The nine professional schools include the schools of business, journalism, engineering, architecture and urban design, fine arts, pharmacy, social welfare, education and law. None of the nine schools or the College have deans who are members of one of the University's defined minority groups, although five of them have deans or associate deans who are women. Minority faculty Ethnic or racial minority classifications recorded by the University are African American, Native American, Asian American and Hispanic. The 1,343 full-time faculty at the University of Kansas break down like this: White: 1202 / 90% Native American: 7 / .5% African American: 36 / 2.7% Hispanic: 21 / .016% Other: 7 / 5% School Minority percentage Minority faculty Total faculty Architecture/Urban Design 4.3% 1 23 Business 0.0% 0 47 Education 6.8% 5 74 Engineering 0.0% 0 100 Fine Arts 8.9% 8 90 Journalism 15.0% 3 20 Law 13.8% 4 29 Pharmacy 6.0% 3 50 Social Welfare 19.2% 5 26 **Note:** College of Liberal Arts & Sciences numbers were not available because of the size of the college.

Source: Schools 'Dean' Offices, Office of Institutional Research & Planning M. D. Bradshaw/KANSAN The School of Engineering and School of business do not have any faculty members who are classified as minorities. INSIDE Multicultural Resource Center strives to respect and appreciate diversity. President Bill Clinton held a dialogue on race yesterday on the campus of the University of Akron. Overall, 10 percent of faculty at the University are members of an ethnic or racial minority, while 16 percent of the classified staff, including secretaries and other support personnel, are members of an ethnic or racial minority, according to the Office of Institutional Research and Planning. Sandy Williams, assistant dean of business, said the school had about 47 full-time faculty members, none of whom are minorities. The school does have seven international and 11 female faculty members. However, the University does not include international faculty or women in its classification of minorities. See CHANCELLOR'S on page 2A Office pushes diversity, not quotas Fair opportunity is goal By Tim Harrington and Ryan Koerner tharrington@kansan.com rkoerer@kansan.com Kansan staff writers Since July 1, 1986, the University of Kansas' Office of Affirmative Action ceased to exist. The Office of Equal Opportunity, formerly known as the Office of Affirmative Action, works to diversify the campus from the highest levels of the administration down. "We believe that equal opportunity is the ultimate goal. Affirmative action is just one way to get there," said Maurice Bryan, office director. "We also changed the name to be sensitive to the fact that many people misunderstood the role of affirmative action." Kansan staff writers "It's never been about hiring someone that's unqualified," Bryan said. "It's about giving people a reasonable opportunity to succeed." Aside from being inaccurate, having an office called the Office of Affirmative Action could incite protest from those who feel that affirmative action is inherently discriminatory, Bryan said. Also, having affirmative action in the office's name insufficiently represents the responsibilities of the office, Bryan said. The office's responsibilities include investigating and resolving possible incidents of discrimination or harassment. Earlier this year, movements to repeal affirmative action laws in California and Texas have arisen. In the case of Proposition 209 in California, the state supreme court upheld a decision to abolish affirmative action. In Texas, the anti-affirmative action proposition was defeated. Who's KU? "Diversity will sometimes bring conflict," Bryan said. "The question is how do we deal with that conflict in a civil manner that respects everyone's rights as human beings." Bryan said that a decision made in California did not necessarily have relevance in Kansas because the geographic and demographic differences between the states were so great. In recent months, the term "affirmative action" has become more divisive than ever. "It worries me," Bryan said. "These decisions have the potential of spreading."

Daisy Hill polling site creates Senate drama Your ideas, questions, comments and concerns are welcome and appreciated. Write us at 111 Staffer-Fillit Hall, University of Kansas, Lawrence KS, 66044. Or email us at editor@tansan.com Committees will review bill during next semester By Tim Harrington tharrington@kansan.com Kansan staff writer All hell broke loose last night at Student Senate. After a shouting match between Jason Fizell, rights committee member and supporter of the Daisy Hill bill and Mike Walden, student body vice president, the bill was sent back for debate to the Finance and Rights committees at their next meetings, which won't be until next semester. At press time, senators were still debating the issue. The issue began heating up earlier in the evening. In the StudEx meeting prior to Senate, Pat Mazumdar, graduate senator, made a motion to bring the Daisy Hill polling bill off the floor. Bills usually go through one of the standing committees, but this one did not. StudEx can act as a standing committee but usually does not. StudEx voted not to bring the bill off the floor. The purpose of the committees is for the bill to be heard by more people. "This issue comes up every few years but it always gets put off until later." Mazumdar said. "Then it gets closer to the election and Senate becomes so divided on the issue that nothing gets done." Walden objected to the bill on the grounds that it went against Senate's rules and regulations for the body to become involved in the business of the elections commission. Later in Senate, Seth Hoffman, All-Scholarship Hall Council senator who did most of the leg work on the bill, appealed Walden's ruling. "It gets closer to the election and Senate becomes so divided on the issue that nothing gets done." Pat Mazumdar Senate voted on the ruling and it was upheld. Hoffman made the motion again and was ruled out of order. Fizell took the floor and began to accuse Walden of using his office to keep Senate from hearing the legislation. After repeatedly calling Fizell out of order, which Fizell ignored, Walden called a ten-minute recess. "I followed Robert's rules of parliamentary procedure," Walden said. "If that doesn't meet with some people's political agenda, then that's too bad." When Senate reconvened, Whitney Black, off-campus senator, made a motion for Walden to step down from his chair because he had been quoted in yesterday's "Kansan" as having a bias on the subject. Walden stepped down for the night. Senate then voted to bring up the bill for debate. Kelly Huffman, StudEx chair, became chairman and ruled that Senate could put the matter of whether Senate would debate the bill to a vote. Dave Stras, graduate senator, made a motion that the bill was unconstitutional. To use the proposed polling site, certain students would have to pay for the proper parking pass on Daisy Hill, or pay for bus fare to get up there. After some debate, Senate overruled Stras' objection and moved that the bill be brought up next semester in the Finance and Rights committees. Browsing at the bazaar A. A. B. C. D. E. F. G. H. I. J.

Photo by Geoff Krieger/KANSAN Firing of 'Kansan' editor raises legal questions The news-editorial department shall be headed by the editor, who shall be elected for a tenure of one semester by The University Daily Kansan Board and serve at the pleasure of the board. The editor shall choose a staff subject to approval by the Board. According to the Constitution of "The University Daily Kansan," Article IV, Section 2, b: "Kansan" Constitution And Article III, Section 3, b, among the board's duties is: To dismiss, or receive notice of dismissal of, any staff member who is not performing satisfactorily. The recent firing of Spencer Duncan as editor of "The University Daily Kansan" has shed light on the gray area that exists between the newspaper's role as a teaching tool and that of a forum for free speech. By Tim Harrington tharrington@kansan.com Kansan staff writer Robert Duncan, attorney and father of the recently fired editor sent a letter Monday addressed to the "Kansan" board, James Gentry, dean of journalism and Chancellor Robert Hemenway condemning the board for firing his son. The letter claims that the board violated either, if not both, the student code of rights and responsibilities and the University Senate code, specifically the part dealing with due process in firing an employee. Though Duncan is an hourly-paid employee, it is unclear who exactly his employer is and what right to due process he had. The "Kansan" receives funding from the state of Kansas and from student fees, but student paychecks come from the University. Ann Hartley, associate director of the University Placement and Employment Center, said that prior to firing an employee, the person should be notified in writing. "In most cases you'll have some kind of warning unless it's highly unusual." Hartley said. "The he's not just some kid filing books in the library," said Rick Musser, professor of journalism. "He's got more protection and, some would say, more responsibility." The Constitution of the "Kansan," which describes the lines of responsibility and authority for governing, producing and determining the procedure and policies of the paper, clearly describes the board's power over Duncan as editor. According to the newspaper's constitution, the editor serves at the pleasure of the board, allowing the board to fire an editor for any reason it chooses. "The School of Journalism has always walked a fine line between preserving the First Amendment rights of the 'Kansan' and at the same time maintaining academic professionalism," said Ted Frederickson, professor of journalism and an attorney. "I don't sense a desire by the board to censor 'Kansan' free speech. I think they saw it as a performance issue." Mark Goodman, executive director of the Student Press Law Center in Arlington, Va., said that whether it was intended, Goodman believed there was a First Amendment violation. The letter sent to the board by Duncan's father advised that if the board issued additional statements regarding his son, it would violate state laws regarding closed personnel records. John Ginn, board chairman and Knight distinguished professor of journalism, said that he and the rest of the board had been advised by their attorney not to discuss Duncan's firing. The alleged violation According to the Student Rights and Responsibilities, Publications section. Article 16: The student press must be free of censorship. Its editors, managers and contributors must be protected from arbitrary sanctions (Article 22-E) originating outside the student press. Similar freedom must be assured for the oral statement of views on all University-controlled radio or television stations. Robert Duncan, Spencer Duncan's father, claims in a letter to the "Kansan" Board that the Board is in violation of Article 16.

Bradshaw/KANSAN Chancellor's minority-faculty goal calls for 66 more professors by 2000 Continued from page 1A A lack of minority faculty members causes many students to go through their college careers without having a professor who is a minority. "In the two years that I have been at the University of Kansas, I have not seen a minority teacher within my major or outside of my major," said Gina Dama. St. Louis senior. "I am curious why that is. We as a University should be aware of minorities." Damico is an advertising major in the School of Journalism, which has three minority faculty members. A. L. C. Mike Cuenca assistant professor of journalism, is the chairman of the University Human Relations committee and a member of the KU Coalition Against Racism. Kitchen: Says chan- cellor's faculty goal is achievable. "The chancellor has made a verbal commitment to increase the number of minority faculty. It seems that the chancellor is aware that we need to work on this area." Cuenca said. "I think it's obvious when you look around campus that there are not a lot of minority faculty." Cuenca said one reason for the lack of diversity in the faculty was the geographical location of the University. "We're in the middle of the United States where the minority population is small," he said. "There is a lack of experience with other kinds of people, ethnicities and cultures. That is a big part of the fight here." Although location may be a reason for a lack of minority faculty, Hemenway said he thought that this was not a good excuse. "The challenges are the same every place in the country. You want to hire the best possible faculty," he said. "I am not one of those who is willing to accept that it's harder to recruit a Black faculty member at Lawrence, Kan., than it is to Ithaca, N.Y., or Los Angeles, Calif." Kitchen also said that he thought that location was not the reason that the University was lacking a large number of minority faculty members. "The University of Kansas is not earning enough salary-wise as compared to some of our peer institutions for faculty. I think that's a factor in itself," Kitchen said. "We've got to have more than just the University of Kansas to offer these people. This is a great University and a great research institution, but sometimes it takes a little bit more than just that." Marc Adin, director of human resources, said geography played a larger part in the hiring of classified staff members such as secretaries than it did in the hiring of faculty members. When the University examines candidates for job openings, especially openings for classified staff, the University does not have the luxury of choosing from a large pool of minority candidates. Adin said. "Classified staff are drawn from the regional or local area. Because of the lack of diversity in this area it is difficult for us to increase the number of minority applicants." Adin said. "In hiring faculty, we certainly have a lot more leeway and freedom to pursue national candidates." Kitchen said the difference in the diversity of classified staff and faculty could be because of where employees are from. "I think partly because a lot of people have their roots here or somewhere close to the Midwest, they are attracted to the University," he said. "Faculty will have to come from another institution, and I think faculty weigh very heavily who these institutions are and what they represent." Although Adin said that facultylevel diversity was a more realistic possibility because of a broader candidate search, the 16 percent of minorities in the classified staff compared to the 10 percent among faculty disputes this. Kitchen said he thought that students should not go through the University without having a professor or a class member who was a minority. "We hear it far too often, from particularly minority students, who simply say they can go through an entire four years here and there is never anybody in their classes who looks like they do," he said. "That's kind of sad in 1997 that we still have that." Center serves multiple purposes Mission statement The Multicultural Resource Center (MRC) of the University of Kansas was established to promote an educational environment that recognizes and celebrates the diverse composition of the Lawrence campus population. The focus of the center is to serve as a primary resource for developing cultural sensitivity. The program's curriculum is designed to assure that the social and classroom environment of the campus is inclusive with respect to the cultural, racial, ethnic, religious and other differences represented in the diverse University community. To foster and contribute to a more global and multicultural society, the MRC prepares administrators, faculty, staff and students through consulting, training, workshops, seminars and other educational programs. The center also will work to eliminate stereotypes and myths that have served as the basis of racial, ethnic and cultural discrimination and prejudice on campus and in society. It will not only promote cultural understanding, but it's primary goal is to help individuals learn to respect and appreciate the richness that is found in diversity. It is the purpose of the MRC to promote multiculturalism on campus. As the name implies, the center will insure that multiculturalism becomes an accepted and practiced ethic in the educational program and in all facets of University life. In a small annex north of Summerfield Hall stands the Multicultural Resource Center, the hub of multicultural affairs at the University of Kansas. The center, housed in a remodeled Military Science Annex, opened Sept. 6, 1995, after more than five years of discussions and planning. By Ryan Koerner rkoerner@kansan.com Kansan staff writer "Its purpose is to create an environment in which individuals can learn to respect and appreciate the richness found in diversity," said Gloria Flores, the center's coordinator. During the late 1980s, campus groups had considered opening ethnic-specific centers on campus. There was talk primarily of an African-American student center, said Sherwood Thompson, director of the center and of the Office of Minority Affairs. Thompson said that an ethnic specific center would not have helped to further the goal of a diverse University. The groups finally decided that one center would be more beneficial to the University. "We elected, with students' insistence, that our best approach at integrating the KU community would be an inclusive center so as to reduce the polarization among groups on campus." Thompson said. Jointly funded by Student Senate and the division of student affairs, the center is equipped for lectures, small dialogue groups, panel dis An article in Monday's "Kansan" suggested that the Douglas County AIDS Project hd served 39 patients since 1981. It has served 39 patients since January 1, 1997. MRC Spring hours - 10 a.m to 9 p.m. Monday through Thursday - 10 a.m to 5 p.m. Friday 10 p.m. to 5 p.m. Friday cussions and video presentations. It also has a library and computer work station. Items in the reading library include periodicals, books and video resources that cover diversity issues. Flores said. "This is a multipurpose facility," said Flores, who also is associate director of the Office of Minority Affairs. "We provide resources like the reading library because for a while before the center opened, there hadn't been that kind of resource on campus." Although the center provides campus diversity resources, its main purpose is diversity education. Flores said that the staff tried to be as broad in its programming choices as possible. The lunches are held at about 11:30 a.m. in the center's small auditorium. The date of the lunches differs from month to month. The center holds "hot topics" brown bag lunches once a month that address current events. The resource center also co-sponsors events with other groups and offices on campus such as the Hispanic-American Leadership Organization, the Asian-American Student Union, the Native-American Student Association, Student Union Activities and various academic departments. Name change reflects office's goal Continued from page 1A Bryan said that what he thought was best for Kansas was an aggressive faculty recruitment policy similar to the way Kansas men's basketball coach Roy Williams seeks out players. "The most effective way would be an athletic model of recruitment," Bryan said. "You have a position to fill, and you know what you need. You send out advertisements, talk to people and aggressively pursue the candidates." Bryan said that although the University's affirmative action policy was not quite as assertive as he would like it to be, the University's administration was very much behind his efforts. When Chancellor Robert Hemenway began his tenure at the University in fall 1995, he set a goal to increase the number of minority faculty members from 125 to 200 by the year 2000. Hemenway said, "There's a special responsibility here to make sure women and minorities are included in the hiring pools." And Bryan said it was essential that efforts to diversify maintained their high-priority status. "We're moving on up, but not necessarily as fast as we could be," Bryan said. "We're behind where we could be at this point. We need more." Jim Kitchen, dean of students, worked as an affirmative action officer for more than 10 years. He said he didn't believe in diluting standards just because a person was a minority, nor did he believe that there were not qualified minority candidates available. Although the Office of Equal Opportunity is not directly involved with diversifying the student body, it does assist all departments with the hiring and firing of all classified and unclassified staff. "When people say they aren't out there, that's hogwash. They're out there," Kitchen said. "We don't use quotas here. We set goals," Bryan said. "Sometimes those goal are numerical or based on a target percentage, but there's a very big distinction between quotas and what we do." Bryan said that the distinction was a lesson. Quotas are enforced by a court order after an organization has been found to use discriminatory practices. The University has never been subject to a court order of this type. Bryan said. The Office of Equal Opportunity, however, does determine whether minorities are being underutilized in certain departments. It does this through an analysis of the number of minorities in each department, coupled with data on how different fields of study are diversified regionally and nationally. Bryan uses this information to set diversity goals for each department. Although he finds it unvoidable at times, Bryan grudgingly uses the term "minority." He said he thought it was contradictory to the goal of creating a level-playing field. "I can't give you some magic number," Bryan said. "I don't even have one in my head. But unless you do something assertive or proactive, women and minorities are not necessarily put on the same level playing field." "I think it perpetuates the idea of dominant and subdominant groups." Brvan said. Sherwood Thompson, director of the Office of Minority Affairs, agreed that what mattered most was not hiring a member of a minority group but hiring the most qualified individual. "I think that the important consideration should be talent," Thompson said. "It should be versatility that the person brings to the job." Thompson said that his concern with affirmative action was that a candidate's innovative teaching techniques and background could be overlooked. "Whites have been some of the most effective in teaching minority issues, and faculty of color have been and will continue to be very effective teaching Western Civ and other courses of non single-group nature," Thompson said. Bryan said that the distinction was a legal one. Kitchen agreed that a job applicant's credentials should be the most important consideration. "I certainly don't think that one should be on the faculty just simply because of their ethnicity." Kitchen said. "I think you need to have the qualifications to go along with it." "We also are working with faculty who are bringing unique cultural programs to their classes," Flores said. Flores said that the center was accomplishing many things but that there always was room for expansion. "It has to do with getting the staffing and getting the word out," she said. "When we are shorthanded, it is hard to get the word out." In addition to Thompson, Flores and three student employees, the center has occasional help from student volunteers. Right now, Flores is heading a search committee for an on-site, full-time assistant director position. Flores said she thought that the center had positively impacted campus since it opened two years ago. Pres. Clinton holds forum about race "I just think that more faculty have been calling on us for help with diversity issues," Flores said. "We hope to build stronger relationships with faculty. As long as we have interaction of that kind, we'll keep the message out there." The Associated Press AKRON, Ohio — President Clinton learned Wednesday that getting people to express their innermost beliefs about race will not be easy. CLARIFICATION Pursuing his national dialogue for nearly two hours, Clinton struggled to draw out the opinions of students and community leaders in a town hall forum at the University of Akron. Save for an exchange on affirmative action between Clinton and a conservative author, the panelists agreed with each other for nearly 90 minutes. Clinton extended the session for 30 minutes before conceding that deeper sentiments would have to be expressed outside of his forum. "This is the beginning, not the end." Clinton said. "What we're trying to do here is drop a pebble in the pond and have it reverberate all across America. If we don't speak very frankly about what we believe, then when it's over we won't feel very good." As soon as the session opened, a student of mixed racial ancestry told Clinton that bank clerks react suspiciously when he deposits checks for his mother. And a Caucasian student said he feels afraid when he sees disheveled African Americans on the street even though one of his favorite TV stars is black comedian Bill Cosby. "That's a pretty gutsy thing for you to admit." Clinton told him. "I have those prejudices," Jonathan Morgan said. "It has nothing to do with my personal experiences." you to admit," Clinton told him. The only truly divergent voice came from author Abigail Thernstrom, who argued that race-based preferences are no longer necessary to uplift minorities. "Black progress is indisputably here to stay," she said.

Professor Ruth Klüger read selections from her autobiographical book, "witer Leben," which translates to "To Live Longer." Her presentation, called "A Jewish Childhood Under the Nazis," focused on the impact that surviving the Holocaust has had on her. This was her first reading of the book in English. "It's not so much about what happened but about how it infringes on us," she said. About 35 students and faculty members attended the reading in 330 Strong Hall. Because Klüger was just 7 years old when Germany invaded Austria in 1938, she was not fully aware of what was happening. She spoke about the difficult family relations she encountered after the ordeal. After the war ended, she spent much of her time trying to get information from her family, she said. "I can't get rid of the prickly feeling that I'm uncovering taboos," she said. "No one would tell me about it because I was too young." Klüger recalled the time she disobeyed the law and went to the movies to see Walt Disney's "Snow White." As a Jewish child, she was not permitted to go, but her mother suggested that she ignore the law. While at the theater, she was spotted by her non-Jewish neighbor who threatened to turn her in but did not. "I sweated through the next 70 or 90 minutes and didn't know what happened on the screen," she said. "That afternoon at the movies almost cost me my life." Her best-selling book was published in 1992 in Germany. It has been translated into Dutch, Italian, French, Spanish, Czech and Japanese. An English version is in the works, she said. She has received numerous German literary awards for her book. Klüger taught Germanic studies at the University of Kansas from 1970 to 1972 and is now a professor emeritus at the University of California at Irvine. "Her book has been taken seriously, in contrast to many works that have been written about Holocaust experiences," said Frank Baron, professor of Germanic languages and literature. "It's because in her work, Ruth Klüger not only narrates the experiences of concentration camps, she reflects about these experiences in a profound way." The Western Civilization Program and department of Germanic languages and literature invited Klüger to speak at the University. Matt Skinta, Andover freshman, attended the program after receiving a flier during a German class. After listening to Klüger speak, he said he planned to try reading the German version of the book. "It was very moving," Skinta said. "I had never heard an actual Holocaust survivor speak before. It's different to hear a first-hand account and how she deals with it." Author Ruth Klüger, KU professor from 1970-72, reads selections from her book "weiter leben." She gave a presentation to 35 students and faculty members yesterday afternoon in Strong Hall. Klüger's book is an autobiographical account of her time at Auschwitz. The book was published in 1992 in seven languages. Klüger now is working on an English translation.

David Keith/ KANSAN Feedback Christian athletes were not offensive to crowd Gerry Doyle, I find many errors in your editorial about the Athletes in Action basketball game against the KU women's team First, the fans that were at the game that night did not go there "to be preached at" and indeed, the game was very entertaining, both contrary to what you stated. The fans that listened to the halftime message were not "forced" to hear what the AIA team members had to say. There was nothing offensive in their message. Rather, it was an encouraging talk about exciting and powerful things happening in their lives because of Jesus Christ. Finally, you said that that "KU basketball faithful and students should never be subjected to the kind of Christian crusade." If it was that big of a deal to you —and anyone else who thinks like you do— then you should have left. Then you wouldn't have been subjected to such talk. But the crowd seemed genuinely interested in what the AIA athletes had to say and cared about their beliefs in the Creator of the Universe. I only wish and pray that you felt the same. Julie Buchanan Wichita sophomore On McCuistion's personal account of animal testing When faced with a complex issue, people have a tendency to take an absolute pro or con position rather than acknowledge any room for discussion. Clay McCuistion's column on Dec. 2 addresses two very different parts of the animal rights debate — medical testing on animals and frozen turkey bowling — and seems to think that to support the one requires him to support the other. But this is not an issue of black and white morality; it is an issue of justifiability. The first case is a matter of animal suffering and death vs. saving human lives, whereas the second is animal suffering and death vs. wacky entertainment. Though no columnist would write it in the "Kansan," it is perfectly reasonable to eat meat, for example, yet feel that throwing the same dead animal down a hallway (and into the trash) is disgusting and disrespectful. Or to be a vegetarian, easy in modern society, and still support animal research as an extremely useful tool in science. Or to support animal research in medicine but not in the making of eyeshadow. The beliefs that animal life has no value, or that its value equals human life, are the least reasonable and the most offensive. Kevin A. T. Boyle Petaluma, Calif., Junior Clay McCuistion's opinion article was good. It takes guts to be a conservative college student. It also takes brains. Chris Bartee Olathe junior Clay McCuision's response to animal rights activists in your Dec. 2 issue was fairly successful in its use of personal experience to justify animal testing for medical purposes. When he dealt with problems of human hunger and poverty, McCuition made serious errors. McCuintion declares that human hunger must be eliminated before one can worry about animal abuse and implies that these problems are unrelated. What McCuintion fails to realize is that there would be fewer hungry people in this world if there were less reliance on animals as food sources. Many more resources — such as water — are required to produce animal-derived nourishment that are needed for plant and grain-derived nourishment. When nations devote their economies to satisfying carnivorous appetites in prosperous countries such as the United States, more people in developing countries starve. Plain and simple. Many more resources such as water McCuistion also implies that animal rights activists are indifferent to exploitation of cheap labor overseas. Had he been at the recent protest rally at McDonald's in downtown Lawrence, he would have found that animal rights activists are leading the fight against such conditions. McDonald's uses Vietnamese children to make toys for their promotional campaigns and animal rights activists are calling attention to this intolerable abuse. They are doing so because animal rights and human rights are part of the same moral continuum. Ray Pence Casper, Wyo., graduate student Rav Pence Let's hear it for Hemenway and technological support Students should know that Chancellor Robert Hemenway does have their best interests at heart. In November at the meeting of the Jayhawks for Higher Education, the Chancellor presented his agenda for the 1998 legislative session in Toneka. One of the items he discussed was the 2-for-1 Technology Fee, wherein students would pay an additional $1 per credit hour with a commitment from the Kansas Legislature to match each students $1 with $2 of state funding. All of this money would be earmarked for technological improvements at the University. The fact that the Chancellor placed this issue at the top of his agenda during his speech shows the degree to which he wants better technology here. The Kansas Board of Regents has also made the technology money a top priority on its fiscal year 1998 and 1999 budget request. It is more than coincidental that this is also a driving issue for the Student Legislative Awareness Board, of which I'm in charge. It is very encouraging for students to see that this issue — their issue — is a priority for so many people. This is a remarkable instance where the administration, the Regents and the student body have the opportunity to work on a common agenda. As the Legislative Director for students at the University, I would like to personally thank the Chancellor for his dedication to improving conditions for students at the University and working to give students at the University more value for money, more attention to issues that they care about and more foresight in planning for the future.

Raving Searching for the best way to seize your rights Maybe I've been a little rough on the cops this semester, but they give me so much to be angry about. Take the following scenario: "If you guys don't want to get pulled over and searched, I'd get rid of the road maps and air freshener." SUNY Cortland Christopher Bulgren opinion@kansan.com This was the advice offered to me by a highway patrolman after he searched my car in Hooker, Okla. My buddy Jason had been driving my car. The cop told him that he would get a warrant to search the car if Jason didn't grant him permission to do so. Jason, being the kind soul he is said, "Sure." We didn't have anything to hide. After an hour of standing in a ditch while Hollibilly Jim rummaged through my personal belongings and inadvertently honked my horn with his gut, we were on our way with a speeding ticket for our troubles. This officer, like many others, violated and intimidated us simply because of our appearance. Let's face it: cops look for a certain kind of driver. If you're wearing funny sunglasses or driving a rental car with out-of-state plates, you might have drugs in the car. These types of parameters were set up to stop the dispersion of drugs. But they have turned into a nifty little way to search anybody's car. They are applying these profiles for drug runners to anybody who looks suspicious. If I want to look suspicious, that's my business. That doesn't mean I'm running cocaine out of South America. Appearance is not pertinent. Cops enforcing a law through the use of profiles is inappropriate, but this is the standard they use. I recently got a flat tire while driving on the highway. Three cop cars pulled up to see what was going on. I was about 10 seconds into my "Good evening, officer" bit when I remembered that I had orange hair. The cops seemed a little put out by it, but there was no overt attempt to search the van. However, while I was changing the tire, a cop walked around the van with his flashlight looking in the windows. What the hell is that? I get a flat tire and you're obliged to sneak a peek? With Christmas and spring break on the way, be aware of your rights. Police need a warrant to search your car. Make them get one even if you don't have a brick of hash or a dead body in the trunk. Police consistently strong arm drivers into granting consent to search a car. Don't fall for the intimidation tactics — it's your right to say no. Second, insisting that police get a warrant is not an admission of guilt, even though the police may tell you it is. This is just another trick developed by the good old boys club known as the highway patrol. The Oklahoma cop told me that because I wanted him to get a warrant, he could conclude that we were hiding something. What a shifty way to dance around the Fourth Amendment. Clinging to my rights is not an admission of guilt. It's time to communicate to the cops that skirt your rights that it's time to serve and protect. Make them get warrants. You shouldn't be harassed because you fit the so-called profile of a druggie. This isn't about drugs. It's about making our public servants protect us, not harass us. I'm sure drug busts look good on a cop's record. But that doesn't mean we should forget about the ours rights. Odds are that they won't be able to get a warrant. I don't think a reasonable judge would throw the Fourth Amendment — covering search and seizure — out the window because someone is wearing a tie-dyed shirt. If they do, it would be an unreasonable interpretation of the amendment. Sure, we probably need to control the flow of drugs such as cocaine and heroin in this country. But it just doesn't make sense to pursue law breakers in an unconstitutional manner. Don't we have a right to own property? Isn't there a level of privacy that corresponds to that property? Police wouldn't search your home because of what you're wearing. The same needs to hold true when it comes to automobile searches. Bulgen is a Lawrence graduate student in journalism. He is at the end of his tether. The following were written for a Reporting II class taught by Malcom Gibson, professor of journalism. My mother never comes or goes without notice. By Allison Day, Merriam graduate student! When we get separated in a store, I only pause for a moment and listen — listen for the rhythmic creaking of my mother's braces and the tap of her heels as they hit the floor in one solid motion. My mother had polio when she was 8 years old, and she has used crutches and braces or a wheelchair to move since then. My husband, Ryan, once said my mom was a paraplegic, and the image shocked me. I had never heard my mom described like that, nor had I ever considered her to be incapacitated like "paraplegic" suggests. She teaches special education full time, makes the best coconut cream pie from scratch (including the crust), cleans the bathroom compulsively, teaches Sunday school and drives a car. She does everything and often more in a day than I do. To me she is able to do almost anything. She was lucky compared to some. She didn't have to lie in an iron lung, but she had numerous surgeries and a year of grueling physical therapy that forced her to miss school. They wanted more than just one child, but my mother really was unable to care for a baby. She needed both hands to move her own body. She couldn't carry me and run to the kitchen for my bottle at the same time. She later went to college and lived on her own before she met my father, married him and had me. I haven't always been supportive of my mother's handicap. I've often resented it and her for forcing me into her unique world. Growing up, one of my favorite things was to have my mom scratch my back. She used the half-dollar-sized calluses on her hands, roughened from years of gripping her crutches, to rub my back. It felt so good because her hands scratched; they didn't tickle. The call of "Allison, can you get something for me?" was a familiar one. But she is different. I would quit what it was doing and go to the kitchen, usually to climb up on the counter and get a bowl down from the cabinet or carry a pan of boiling water from the stove to the sink. When my mom came to my elementary school for meetings, all the kids swarmed me at recess after she had left and asked me, "What's wrong with your mom?" "She had polio as a girl," I would mumble. I blamed her does not be able to go camping like "everyone else does" on family variations. Through the years, though, I've learned that my mother has provided me with something few mothers can give to their children. I wondered why my mom was the one who had to be different. Why was she the one with, as I heard one child describe them, "the sticks?" She has given me a daily example of courage, tenacity and selflessness. The comments like, "Your mom is so wonderful," no longer annoy me. Instead, I answer back "Yeah, she is." I realize now that it's because of her character, not her disability, that she never comes or goes without notice. Essays from Mt. Oread By Susie Gura, Clarendon Hill, Ill, junior The black night was colored by the red and blue lights of police cars and ambulances as they arrived at the accident. The car was totaled, and he was on a gurney. About 20 of my friends were spending our annual weekend at a cottage around a keg reminiscing about high school. No parents, no rules, no responsibilities. Or so we thought. Now who was going to take responsibility for this? It was time I grew up. After all, it was my car — my dad's to be exact — and it was my boyfriend. My friends told me I had to call my parents. It was a l.a.m., I woke them up. I couldn't explain myself through my tears and I was fighting with them not to come. I told them I could handle it myself, I was wrong. I was 20 years old and had no handle on the situation or else it would have never happened. No officials would tell my friends or I anything because we weren't family members, but his family and mine were at home three hours away. They were coming. We left for the hospital with optimistic thoughts because one of the passengers in the accident was already recovering at the cottage. We arrived expecting to find Pat with a few bumps and scrapes, but he was being helicoptered to a different hospital. I sat in the waiting room wondering how I was going to explain this to my parents. I have never felt so alone. I was going to be the one who had to explain the situation when both his parents and mine walked through the doors with questions. Pat should have never been driving, but no one knew he left. How was I going to explain that? It was time I swallowed my fears, looked them in the eye and told them the truth. My parents were the first to arrive and the only words to come out of my mouth were, "Tm sorry." His family came shortly after. Pat's little sister was terrified that her brother was going to die, but the thought never crossed my mind. I began to look at the real situation and not be concerned with the smashed car or my parents' shattered thoughts of me. We drove 45 minutes to the other hospital and were ushered in by hospital personnel who explained the situation. Pat wasn't coming home anytime soon. Pat was in intensive care and would remain there for four days until his surgery. When I saw Pat for the first time after the accident he was in a drug-induced coma. It was a sight I thought I would never encounter. My dad turned to me and said, "This is when he'll need his friends the most." 1 Pat had surgery to repair his smashed skull. It was only supposed to take four hours; it took longer. While I wandered the halls of the hospital, I began to cherish my family and friends because they were the reason I was getting through this. The fear I felt was brought upon me by myself. Face up to fears and life will teach you a lesson. That night, those few weeks, that summer will always be a turning point in my new-found strength I have for myself and for others. Pat recovered and my parents got a new car. The details of the accident are behind me, but my strength and sense of responsibility will never fade. --- Thursday, December 4, 1997 The University Daily Kansan Section A • Page 5 Applications for assistants to new students due this month By Gwen Olson golson@kansan.com Kansan staff writer Each year, prospective students visit the University of Kansas with questions about their first year of college. The office of New Student Orientation now is accepting applications for orientation assistants to help those students and their parents learn more about the University and its community. Applications are due in the New Student Orientation office by Dec. 19. Fifteen orientation assistants will be hired for the 1998-99 school year.

UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS Newstand The Playhouse The Playground The Soap Box The Vocal Center Explore Your World Section A·Page 6 The University Daily Kansan --- Thursday, December 4, 1997 Daemon K. Hattfield talks with Elizabeth Taylor during a scene from "Zara Spook and Other Lures." The play opened last night and will be performed at 8 tonight at the Inge Theater in Murphy Hall. Photo by Geoff Krieger/KANSAN Play empowers women's voice By Rachelle Detweiler rdetweiller@kansan.com Kanson staff writer Kansan staff writer The Bass N' Gal Fishing Tournament sets the stage for "Zara Spook and Other Lures," where women catch fish while gaining control of their lives. The performance is one of four plays in the annual series of "Pot-Pourri Productions" at the Inger Theater in Murphy Hall. Shows begin at 8 p.m. and run through Sunday. All remaining performances have sold out, but students arriving an hour early can be put on a waiting list. Tickets cost $8 for adults, $7 for children and $4 for students. The shows are produced by the University Theatre. During the play, control issues begin during a drive to the tournament when a girls-only 2,000 mile trip turns into a silent lovers' battle. One very tense woman is followed by her overprotective boyfriend, who farts and cracks peanuts as he drives. Two fed up women sit in the back seat, squirt perfume and tell tales of fishing experiences. The tensions of the car ride increase when one women dodges bullets fired by her husband while another has an emotional breakdown because of her husband's affair. Each woman must face her fears to gain independence. sums it all up," said Petra Wahlqvist, Trosa, Sweden senior. "All the characters confront their fears, and they all feel--like my character says-a whole lot lighter." "The last scene of the play All four productions in this year's series are written by contemporary female playwrights. Kim Miller, Erie, III., doctoral student and director, said that each of the productions varied greatly in topic and presentation, providing a layered sample of productions written by female artists. "I want to add more women's voices to the history of theater," Miller said. "We need to work on incorporating women's voices." University Theatre presents four plays directed by students Six actors play a total of 20 characters in the play "Ripen Our Darkness," one of four sold-out plays that are part of University Theatre's "Pot-Pourri Productions." Kansan staff writer By Emily C. Forsyth "Ripen Our Darkness," which will be performed at 8 p.m. tomorrow and Saturday in Murphy Hall's Inge Theatre, weaves an intricate tale examining the relationships between men and women, said its director, Regina Przetak, St. Louis doctoral student. "It's worse than a soap opera," Przetak said. "It's very much a domestic drama." "Pot-Pourri Productions" is an annual series of plays that provides a testing ground for students making the transition from classroom experience to directing full-length productions, Przetak said. In contrast to full-length productions, the plays in "Pot-Pourri Productions" are not as fully produced in terms of design and technical elements. Przetak said this helped beginning directors to focus on what was important—the acting—and not become distracted by other factors. This year's series features contemporary plays written by and about women and directed by female graduate students. Przetak said this year's plays all shared a common theme of self-discovery. "From my understanding, the main characters are learning about themselves and coming to grips with their reality." Przetak said. "Joined at the Head," directed by Debora J. King, Houston doctoral student, was the first installment of "Pot-Pouri Productions," performed on Monday and Tuesday. The play explores issues of cancer patients and the difficulties their friends and family face in dealing with the disease. "Zara Spook and Other Lures," directed by Kimberly A. Miller, Erie, Ill., doctoral student, is a comedy about fishing that premiered last night and also will be performed tonight. The play centers on three women who, through introspective examination, realize they must confront personal weaknesses. "This is a play meaningful to anyone who struggles with phases of independence and inter-dependence," Miller said. Pornography and domestic violence are issues addressed by the final play, which will be performed Sunday and Monday. In "Hot 'N Throbbing," directed by Sharon L. Sullivan, Lawrence doctoral student, the main character is a woman who is estranged from her alcoholic and abusive husband. In an ironic plot twist, the woman chooses to write pornographic film scripts so that she can work at home, promoting a happier family life. Sullivan said that although the play contained adult subject matter and profanity, it also took a sensitive look at serious social issues. All performances are at 8 p.m. in the Inge Theatre in Murphy Hall. Tickets for the shows are $8 for the public, $7 for senior citizens and $4 for students. "Technically, all the shows are sold out, but there is still a possibility for people to get tickets," said Gina Damico, box office assistant. One hour before each show begins, a waiting list will be at the box office. People who put their names on the list will have an opportunity to purchase tickets for seats that have not been claimed 15 minutes prior to the show. For more information, call the Murphy Hall Box Office at 864-3982. Auction-goers help KJHK as they shell out cash for bargains Kansan staff writer By Corrie Moore People of all ages, including students and Lawrence residents, battled with bucks last night at the annual KJHK Holiday Gift Auction at the Kansas Union Ballroom. Gary Hawke, KJHK's general manager, started the auction at 7:15 p.m. as people continued to stroll in. The auction lasted until 11 p.m. and raised money for KJHK's operating expenses. Hawke said that the money would not be totaled until today but that he thought more money came in than in past years. "I'm happy with the outcome," he said. "There were more people than last year, good bidding and a good crowd." KJHXE 90.7 KJHK had more than $20,000 worth of merchandise donated by local and regional companies and businesses. More than 130 items were auctioned off. The items were sold separately or bundled in packages. Angela Wilson, Chicago senior and promotions director for KJHK, said the KJHK staff was happy with the way things turned out. "This year, it seems like we have more students, which is good," she said. Students from Journalism 649, Media Sales, and workers from KJHK radio started setting up for the auction at 3 p.m. yesterday. The Journalism 649 students were involved in the event for a class project. A line formed outside the ballroom as people waited to get their pin numbers, which allowed them to bid. After they received their numbers, they were given lists of the items being sold and the retail value of the items. Hawke presented the items to the crowd while Sonny Dolan and Arlie Smith of the Lawrence Northside Auction Service auctioned the items. Dolan and Smith set the price of the items, and if no one bid, then they would lower the price. The first items presented were two Kansas Jayhawk basketball tickets for tonight's game against Emporia State University. The two reserved seats were valued at $50 total and sold for $30. Before and during the auction, people could browse through the merchandise, which covered four large tables stretching the width of the ballroom. Some of the items sold were a picture and a small table with drawers from Pier 1 Imports, which were valued at $130 and sold for $45. James Downing, Wichita sophomore, bought a copy card and four beer mugs for $25. The retail value of the merchandise was $55. "We just wanted to see if we could get stuff for cheap," he said. A portrait and some T-shirts were sold together for $17 and had a total value of $55. The items were bought by Chad Martens, Mese, Ariz., junior.

William Adams of Fort Worth, Texas, donated a total of $200,000 for unrestricted departmental improvements to the University of Kansas Medical Center in Kansas City, Kan., the School of Engineering, the music division in the department of music and dance and the department of geology. Adams donated the $200,000 in honor of members of his family who attended these specific areas of the University. The University's Endowment Association will invest each school and department's $50,000 in mutual funds, stocks and bonds. Each of the schools and departments should expect to see about 5 percent, or $2,500, of the investment within the next three to four months, said John Scarffe, director of communications for the Endowment Association. "The schools will receive income from the investment annually," he said. Scarfie said the gift would establish four separate endowments, one for each of the schools and departments. "It's a great donation because it will allow a lot of continuing benefit for these schools and their departments," he said. Anthony Walton, chairman of the department of geology, said the gift would go toward the department's new equipment-maintenance fund but eventually would help fund department development. Walton said the development would include computers, teaching, research and analytical equipment and field vehicles and instruments. He said some of the income could be utilized by next summer. "This is a very important gift," he said. "It's not the largest we've gotten, but hopefully it will grow in the future." The funds will be highly beneficial to the School of Engineering in the future, said Carl Locke, dean of engineering. The school will probably use the funds to support faculty research programs and student projects, such as national design projects, Locke said. "It is always good when funds are donated without restriction," he said. "This way the money can be used to benefit faculty and students in many different areas." As of yesterday, the music division in the department of music and dance and the Med Center had not received notification of the gift.

The Jayhawks defeated defending national champion Arizona 90-87 Tuesday. Kansas will face Division II Emporia State at 7:07 tonight in Allen Field House, and the players are guarding against a letdown. Forward Paul Pierce, who is questionable for tonight's game, said no opponent should affect how the team approached each game. "If you're not motivated to go out and play against Arizona or anybody else, then why step on the court?" Pierce said. "We need to take it upon ourselves and just be ready to go out and play." The Jayhawks will face a vertically challenged Emporia State team. Of the 14 players on the队 roster, the Hornets have just three players who are 6-foot-6 or taller. Besides the height difference, the Jayhawks and Emporia State provide a stark contrast in scheduling. Four Hornets are less than 6-feet-tall, and no starter is taller than 6-5. Kansas has a size advantage at every position, and it has a taller bench. Kansas already is 7-0 and will play its second game in three days. The Hornets are 1-1 and will play for the first time since Nov. 24 when they defeated Ottawa 94-54 in a home game. This will be Emporia State's first road game of the season, while the Jayhawks have played two games at Madison Square Garden in New York and one at the United Center in Chicago. Although his team could have played other opponents, Kansas coach Roy Williams said smaller, instate schools deserved the chance to draw a sizable paycheck and to beat the Javhaws. "Some know the story of why we play the in-state schools," Williams said. "If we're going to play a non-Division I school, why not play the ones in your state and give them the money?" Kansas and Emporia State have met 14 times since 1904, but the teams have played just once since 1947. Kansas defeated the Hornets 91-56 in 1992, the last time the teams met. Emporia State is led by two forwards — Omar Muhammad and Sebastian King. Muhammad averages a team-high 23.5 points and 6.5 rebounds per game, and King averages 12.5 points and 8.5 rebounds. The Jayhawks conquered a major obstacle in Arizona early in the season, but now they must hurdle smaller ones the rest of the season. Guard Billy Thomas said the Jayhawks had put last year's tournament loss out of their minds. "You cannot dwell on last season," Thomas said. "We can make the most out of this season. We're going to be competitive again, so we'll go through the season and see what happens." KU KANSAS JAYHAWKS 7-0 overall The Starting Lineup KANSAS JAYHAWKS 7-0 overall G RYAN ROBERTSON 6-5 JR.

Photo by Geoff Krieger/KANSAN Point guard finds niche on team Division I women's basketball challenges Kansas freshman By Penny Walker sports@kansan.com Kansan writerwriter For Jennifer Jackson, playing point guard during her freshman season at Kansas has been like living a dream. "To step out on the floor and be calling the plays in a Division I college basketball game was something that I'd been working toward for such a long time," said Jackson, a Tuscaloosa, Ala., native. "It was just one of those things that I was so thankful for every time I step out there. It's almost surreal." ANKS 5 - For Jackson, the points she's scoring for Kansas are decidedly real. Jackson hit a career-high 18 points against Cal-State Northridge in the Prairie Lights/Hawkeye Classic on Sunday, and she has averaged 34.3 minutes per game. "Jennifer has come into this program and played more basketball than I had ever dreamed she would," coach Marian Washington said. "However, it is what I hoped for." Jackson wasn't recruited as a point guard, but after Erinn Reed left the team for personal reasons, the Jayhawks were left without an experienced point guard. Washington selected Jackson to fill the position. "She is a freshman, and she will make mistakes," Washington said. "But I get on her as if she were one of my sisters. She is a courageous and determined young woman, and that is what athletics is all about." "In high school, I played the same people for six years," Jackson said. "You go out on the court, and you're playing the same people you've been playing since you were 13 or 14 years old." Cansas guard Jennifer Jackson calls a play during a game against Athletes in Action. Photo by Geoff Krieger/KANSAN "You step out there now, and you're playing people you've never seen in places you've never been," she said. "You never know what to expect. I think that's something that's exciting, but something that's definitely a little bit scary sometimes." Making the change from high school to college athletics has taken some getting used to, Jackson said. "Going out and playing in gyms where my family is not making up the whole back row of the stands is a little bit strange sometimes," she said. Jackson's father and two of her uncles have traveled from Alabama several times to see her play this season. In high school, Jackson was used to her family coming to the games, so seeing them now makes her feel more comfortable. It also helps to have a familiar face in the crowd The Jayhawks are 3-1, and Jackson said that she was happy with their performance on the road during Thanksgiving break. Even though she hit that 18-point high during the Cal-State Northridge game. Jackson committed five turnovers. Despite the intimidation of college play and the frustration of turnovers, Jackson has no trouble getting peached up for each game. "If you're a basketball player, and you're playing at the Division I level, and you're not excited about getting to go out there and play every day, then you're not supposed to be out anyway," Jackson said. "It's Wednesday, and I'm ready to play Saturday's game right now." Migratory Jayhawks: Mascots fly far from home By Kristie Blasi By Kristie Blasi kblasi@kansan.com Sports editor The Kansas men's basketball team has had a hectic travel itinerary, playing Wednesday and Friday in New York City and Tuesday in Chicago. But the players haven't been the only Jayhawks making the trips. Baby Jay cajoled the crowd at Madison Square Garden in New York, and Big Jay was the largest bird in sight at the Great Eight at the United Center in Chicago. Tuttle said playing for the crowds in neutral arenas was different from being a mascot in Allen Field House. And Tuttle would know because she filled the Baby Jay role at the Chase Preseason NIT in New York. "I was really pleased with how things went on both trips," said Le-Thu Tuttle, mascot coach. "First of all, it's a neutral playing field, so you don't always have KU fans that live that far away," she said. And the logistics of planning antics changes as well, even though mix-ups can occur in the field house — both Big Jay and Baby Jay were on the court during the Nov. 21 UNLV game while the teams were playing on the opposite end of the court. But unfamiliar arenas and tournaments challenge the mascots. "The cheerleaders are there, but they're kind of doing their own thing," she said. "Mainly, it's feeling comfortable in the environment." "You don't know your breaks," Tuttle said of when to perform. "You have to know how to get around and whom to ask. It's nice to know the KU administration because when you get to an away game, they will help you out." Tuttle said that she did more coaching than actually playing the mascot, but that she did fill in as Baby Jay when needed. "I don't want to take it away from the kids," she said. "I want them to travel." She went to Chicago to coach Brice Zogleman, Wichita sophomore, as Big Jay. "It was a lot bigger," he said of the United Center, which held 19,161 spectators for the Kansas-Arizona game. "It had a lot better locker room. The mascots had our own locker room with a shower, a bathroom, leather couches and closed-circuit TV." Zogleman said that playing the mascot on the road had some advantages to the field house. But Zogleman said that there were more intangible differences. "Actually, it was a lot different because the students weren't there, and the students normally have a lot of energy in Allen Field House," he said. "The fans in the middle — the alumni — don't cheer that much, but there were KU fans all over the arena cheering in Chicago." Another difference, he said, was that during Arizona's second-half comeback the crowd cheered for the Wildcats. "That just doesn't happen in Allen Field House." Zoggleman said. One similarity between occasional home games and both of the trips this season is national television exposure. Often this includes ESPN commentator Dick Vitale, who has not been to the field house yet this season but was in both New York and Chicago. Tuttle said Vitale wanted Baby Jay to be on camera with him. "He just grabbed me, and we started dancing," she said. } 1 4 --- 2B Quick Looks Thursday December 4,1997 HOROSCOPES Today's birthday (Dec.4) Today, get out and spread whatever wealth you have around.

O LION M SPORTS BRIEFS AND SCORES 体 KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Kansas City Royals general manager Herk Robinson said that free-agent designated hitter Chill Davis turned down the club's most recent contract offer. Royals contract denied by designated hitter KING Note: Horoscopes have no basis in scientific fact and should be read for entertainment purposes only. The first year was guaranteed in the Royals' offer, and the second year gave the team the option to buy out the contract. The Royals would not say how much they offered. "We will have to evaluate how far we are off," Robinson told "The Kansas City Star." "We have made what we think is a substantial offer. I think we were right there." If a team signs Davis before Sunday's deadline, it would have to give the Royals compensation in the form of a draft choice. After the deadline, the team would only lose a draft pick by signing Davis if the Royals offered him arbitration. Robinson was unsure if the Royals would offer Davis arbitration. Free-agent Alvarez signs with Tampa Bay TAMPA, Fla. — The Tampa Bay Devil Rays agreed yesterday to a five-year, $35 million contract with left-hander Wilson Alvarez, one of the top starting pitchers on the free-agent market.

While many Kansas fans are trying to figure out what the Emporia State Hornets are, I'll be preparing to watch a really important game. This game doesn't have the importance of facing Arizona, and the national championship won't be decided. But the ESU-Kansas game will be more than the No. 2 team in the nation facing a mediocre Division II school. It will be the first chance I've had to see the two colleges that I grew up watching play each other. Eighteen years of traveling to White Auditorium to watch the Hornets play has put a little black and gold in my blood. (Not that I would attend Emporia State; the Jayhawk blood in my veins is thicker.) A trip to Lawrence to watch Danny Manning, Mark Randall and Rex Walters wasn't always an option for me while I grew up. Instead, I watched players with names like Andy Uphoff, Sean Robbins and Brian Robinson. Emporia State is never a contender for a national championship, and White Auditorium doesn't get anywhere near full. But the Hornets play some wonderful basketball. You probably won't see any brutal basketball like we've seen from the Outback All-Stars, taunting PETER WILSON benchwarmers like the players from Rice University or players you feel like hurting (Miles Simon, Mike Ribby and any other Arizona players), but what you will see might impress you. Matt Gardner sports@kansan.com For the first For the first half of tonight's game, I guarantee you'll see Emporia State players giving everything they have. That's the type of basketball that always can be expected from the Hornets. It's not that ESU recruits the most disciplined athletes in the nation or the ones with the most heart. It's because they are guided by a man that gives them the motivation to play hard every game. Ron Slaymaker, the Division II answer to Dean Smith, has led Emporia State for 28 years and is one of the most respected coaches outside Division I. The Hornets have won more than 550 games with Slaymaker as coach. But Coach "Slay" will be making his final trip to Allen Field House tonight. He will retire at the end of the season. One ESU player that you can expect to play well is junior guard Troy Forbes. Forbes. The Hornets' outside specialist, has led the team in three-point shooting for the past two years and has been averaging 16 points per game. Forbes has developed Billy Thomas-type firepower from the outside and can shoot the ball from anywhere outside the three-point line Forbes also is familiar with playing big games against Lawrence. He led the Emporia High School team to the 1995 6A state basketball championship game against Lawrence High School. The interesting part of that game was that two of Forbes' opponents were Brad Frederick and Scott Williams, the sons of Kansas athletic director Bob Frederick and head coach Roy Williams. After I realized that Kansas was playing Emporia State, I was left with an important decision. Do I cheer for my hometown team, the underdog Emporia State Hornets? Or do I go for my Kansas Jayhawks? Now, I've made up my mind, and while everyone is shaking the field house with enthusiasm this evening, I'll be the fan sticking out. I won't be wearing Kansas' crimson and blue, nor will I be sporting the black and gold of Emporia State. I'll be the one cheering for both teams. Gardner is an Emporia, Kan., freshman in journalism. New running back's experience aids Rams The Associated Press ST. LOUIS — Lawrence Phillips' replacement at running back for the St. Louis Rams is no stand-in. 6 Jerald Moore ran 92 yards for his first pro touchdown in last week's victory against Washington. A third-round pick, Moore quickly is making a name for himself. "He's not auditioning for anything," coach Dick Vermeil said. "Anyone that comes here in the future is going to have to beat him out. We can win with Jerald Moore." He topped that in his first start at tailback with 60 yards against Carolina. "It makes me feel pretty good to know he's got confidence in me," Moore said. Illustrating his grit, Moore sustained a concussion in the first quarter of the Redskins game, took a few series off and then played the rest of the way. "It wasn't really that bad," Moore said. "I just blanked out for about a second. I've got a pretty hard head, so it won't hurt too long." Moore's short stature also has benefited his game. Moore is able to tunnel beneath the defense for extra yardage. "I try to use that to my advantage, getting as low as possible so they can't get the licks." Moore said. "Most defensive guys are 6 feet and above and I'm just 5-8, and I can get up under them."

Esiason's booming return threatens Oilers KANSAS & BURGE UNIONS CINCINNATI — The Tennessee Oilers started Boomer Esiason's remarkable comeback. They've got to stifle it today if they're to stay in contention for the plavoffs. The Associated Press Esiason relieved Jeff Blake last Oct. 12 in Memphis and led the Cincinnati Bengals to their only touchdown in the Oilers' '30-7 victory. Esiason's first appearance since he rejoined the Bengals was impressive — four of six passing against a soft defense. TIGERS "He knows exactly where to go with the ball. His poise in the pocket has really been exceptional," said Jeff Fisher, Oilers coach. "He's giving the receivers a chance to make the catch." In the last seven weeks, Eslaason has led the Bengals (4-9) to a pair of It's a different story with the 36-year-old Esiason, who has the experience and patience to string together long drives by hitting the short stuff. Just as the first game turned on how well the Oilers contained Blake, this one likely will depend on how they adjust to Esiason. victories and re-engered as one o the AFC's hottest quarterbacks. It was merely a preview. character in the first game against Cincinnati, forsaking their blitz for the soft zone coverage that other teams use to throttle Blake's bigplay approach. Esiason has given the Oilers a lot to think about during the past few days. They out of It worked well.

I try to listen, but all I'm thinking about is that the key to the Kansas/Arizona game is whether the Kansas backcourt players can keep Mr. Mike Bibby from breaking them down off the dribble.

Jerry Wells, general counsel of the koch crime commission "I don't feel Lawrence has a real gang problem." Richard Solere, former topeka gang member Friday December 5, 1997 Section: A Vol. 108 • No. 74 Saturday & Sunday Opinions vary on whether gangs exist in Lawrence. But a September stabbing has the headlines screaming and parents, teens, experts and police clashing about gangs that Stories by Ann Premier * Illustrations by Micah Laaker BREAK THE MOLD Richard Solere, former topeka gang member he wood-framed townhouse at 203 Glenview Dr. looks like middle-class America, with a nickname truck in the delivery on a with a pickup truck in the alleyway on a street lined with look-alike homes. This northwest Lawrence neighborhood may be where the town's upscale west side begins to fray at the edges, but in no way would this qualify as a bad part of this Midwestern college town. However, just before 1 a.m. on Sept. 7, Lawrence Police Department Detective Mike McAtee responded to a 911 call and found two teen-agers bleeding on the driveway of 203 Glenview, and one teen-ager bleeding in the garage. "Gang fight," said the Lawrence police department. "Three stabbed in gang fight," read the headline in the next morning's "lawrence Journal-World." Who would think that idyllic Lawrence, home of frat boys in Toyota Landcruisers and a boutique-lined main street, would have a nana problem? the Lawrence police department would. Not your typical gangster "The majority of that number are going to be Lawrence residents," McAtee said. "Our numbers are going to be very conservative because they are based on our criteria that is very strict." Lawrence police said they have identified more than 400 gang members and people associated with gangs in Lawrence. The number also includes those passing through Lawrence, so it is not clear how many gang members or associates actually live here. Others are not so sure. Some say the gang issue has been overblown. Gang members say Lawrence's juvenile crime scene is full of gang wanna-be's. One thing is clear — Lawrence gangs don't look, walk or talk like the gangs in East L.A, or even Topeka. Darren Othick, Lawrence police officer, said that in Lawrence, gang members are every color and come from every type of economic and educational background. Jerry Wells, general counsel of the Koch Crime Commission and former Douglas County district attorney, said gang members were difficult to identify because they no longer fit a stereotype. "You can't say that we don't have gangs because they don't fit into a romanticized stereotype," he said. Make no mistake, there are teens in Lawrence who join gangs or hang out with gangs. Six gangs have been identified as Lawrence-based, and police have named members from 60 different gnas in Lawrence. Wells said that gangs in Lawrence, like those in other towns, reflected the community, which was why Lawrence gang members seemed atypical. See JUMP on page 6A "Anyone can be a member of gang regardless of their economic background," Wells said. "Just because you are white upper-middle class doesn't mean you can't belong to a gang."

Section A · Page 2 The University Daily Kansan Friday, December 5, 1997 Borders bookstore to open tomorrow By Ann Premer apremer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer More than two years have passed since Borders started its quest to open a store in Lawrence. After jumping many hurdles, the store at 700 New Hampshire St. will open tomorrow. Susan De Prenger, community relations coordinator for the Lawrence store, said the company was excited to finally open up shop. "It think that all along the company has tried to be flexible," De Prenger said. "I don't think they ever lost sight of wanting to come." Borders faced several obstacles including location, construction and Lawrence's fear of big business. The initial building plan for the store was under fire throughout last fall semester. The original plan called for the demolition of a 98-year-old livery stable at the corner of Seventh and New Hammshire Streets. The plan was changed to leave the facade of the livery stable intact on the north and west sides. A split vote of Lawrence's Historic Resources Commission on whether to accept Borders' proposed location sent the decision to the state. A state historical official decided that the proposed plan for the incorporation of the liv ery stable was acceptable. In addition, the official decided that Borders would not damage the environs of the Eldridge Hotel, 701 Massachusetts St., which is on the national historic register. Besides building issues, Borders also faced criticism from supporters of mom-and-pop stores. Two locally-owned bookstores, Adventure and Terra Nova, closed when they got wind of Borders' opening. Pat Kehde, co-owner of the Raven Bookstore, 8 E. Seventh St., said her store would compete with Borders but knew the consumer market would become smaller. "There are only so many slices to the pie." Kehde said. De Prenger said Borders, which had nearly 200 stores nationwide, co-existed in many college towns with independent bookstores. "We feel that there is a huge appetite for books in this community." De Prenger said. Nate Copt, Borders employee and Lawrence senior, said Border was a good fit for downtown. He said the store's atmosphere was laid-back and encouraged browsing just as many of the downtown stores do. Along with books, the store will offer videos and music.

Many groups shared their questions on the class and its logistics. Photo by Marg Shank/KANSAN By Sarah Chadwick schadwick@kansan.com Kansas stuff writer Diversity education may reach the campus, but some students question the exact definition of the proposed class. The University of Kansas could take steps toward adding a diversity course as a graduation requirement in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences as early as the end of this academic year, said Rochelle Votaw, co-chair of the Ad Hoc Committee for the U.S. Cultural Diversity Requirement at a meeting last night. The committee met with members of the Black Student Union, Hispanic American Leadership Organization, Asian-American Student Union and Native American Student Association at the Multicultural Resource Center to address concerns about the requirement. One concern was an extra requirement added onto already Votaw, Lawrence senior explained the proposed requirement and fielded questions from the 15 people who attended in an attempt to inform and build support for the requirement. booked schedules. Votaw said. "An additional three hours would be tacked on, but if a student plans and has proper advising, they won't have to add another class," she said. The diversity courses offered probably would fulfill other requirements and serve a dual purpose, she said. Others were concerned about the course because of linear tuition. what the course would specifically include. Votaw said the courses would focus on race, gender, sexuality, age and ability in the United States. Another question addressed was "It's about anything that would classify a culture separate from the dominant culture," she said. "Having the requirement would benefit recruitment and make campus a friendlier environment." The requirement would not be one particular class that everyone must take, but a series of courses that students can choose from to fulfill the requirement, Votaw said. "The purpose was to bring together the four minority groups," said Julius Williams, assistant director of the office of minority affairs. "Luckily all groups were represented, so we can be more intelligent in our responses about this to the community and take this information back to our groups." Fraternity's future housed in its roots By Sarah McWilliams smcwilliams@kansan.com Kansan staff writer Drawing on their past to add to their futures, members of the KU chapter of Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity are commemorating their chapter's 80th anniversary this month. The Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity at the University of Kansas celebrates its 80th birthday this month. The chapter was the first Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity established west of the Mississippi River. To celebrate the event, the fraternity invited Reverend Tyrone Crider to speak and held a dinner and fellowship social. Members present in the photo are (from left): Delano Sheffield; Maikl Abdul -Aziz; president; Terrell McYer; Marlon DeRouen; Quincy Garner; Floyd Cline II; and Anthony Hersey. Photo by Marc Kush/Kansan. The Upsilon chapter of the national fraternity will turn 80 years old on Dec.21. As part of its Founder's Week, the chapter joined the Black Student Union Wednesday in sponsoring a guest speaker, the Rev. Tyrone Crider, executive director of the Institute for African-American Youth Development in Chicago. Members also are celebrating the anniversary of the national fraternity, which turned 91 years old yesterday. The fraternity was founded in 1906 at Cornell University in Ithaca, New York. Robert Page, assistant director of admissions and an Alpha Phi Alpha alumnus from Central Missouri State University, said the fraternity was the first African-American organization founded in the United States. Some of the founding members were instrumental in forming the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. nity, family and education because it originally was a support and study group for African-American students at the predominantly white university. Page said the fraternity had always stood for perseverance and commitment to the commu "They went through a lot of racism to set a precedent," Pag said. "Even at that time the founders were thinking the emphasis would be toward scholarship." The KU chapter of the fraternity was the first chapter established west of the Mississippi, said Malik Abdul-Aiz, Kansas City, Kan., senior and president of the chapter. He said he joined the fraternity because of its emphasis on leadership. "It's important to find people who already have leadership roles in the community and have shown initiative." Abdul-Aziz said. Anthony Hersey, Kansas City, Mo., junior and member of the fraternity, agreed. "Most of the people who join the fraternity already know what being a man is and they bring those qualities to it." Hersey said. The national fraternity has included dozens of well-known leaders, such as Martin Luther King, Jr., Thurgood Marshall, and W.E.B. DuBois. More recent members include David Dinkins, the first African- American mayor of New York City, and writer and producer Quincy Jones. Abul-Aziz said the common thread among all of these leaders was their strong commitment to their communities. This commitment permeates all of the fraternity's community service projects, he said. The projects include "Go to High School, Go to College," in which members encourage high school students to stay in school and plan for college. Members also participate in the Big Brothers/Big Sisters program in Lawrence and in promoting voter education, Abdul-Aziz said. As members of the chapter look toward the next 80 years, they see the continued challenge of putting the "unity" back in communities around the nation. "I hope that we go back at the turn of the century and turn to our community," Hersey said. By Corrie Moore cmore@kansan.com Kansan staff writer Native American Acoma Pueblo poet Simon J. Ortiz lectured to more than 50 students yesterday in the Kansas Union. Ortiz discussed his writing and read two poems from his two recent books, "Woven Stone" and "After and Before the Lightning." The lecture was sponsored by the University of Kansas English department and Haskell Indian Nations University. Ortiz also read some of his work last night at Haskell. Luci Tapahonso, associate professor of English, introduced Ortiz and explained the influence of the Acoma Pueblo community on his writing. Ortiz is a poet and prose writer and deals with many social, political, economic and environmental issues, Tapahonso said. His work involves family, community and history. "I don't really exist unless I acknowledge that I am a Acoma Pueblo man," Ortiz said. Tapahonso said she wanted Ortiz to speak to expose students to an important writer. "He's able to touch upon a variety of issues that are important to a lot of people," she said. Ort:z said language was how people learned about themselves and their history. He said he wrote about personal experiences throughout his life and thought cultures were passed down through generations by stories. "I've been writing for a number of years, but I've been using language forever," he said. He explained the main reason for writing poetry and stories was to make people aware of their existence. He said it was important to know about different cultures. "Recognizing each other is seeing ourselves," Ortiz said. "We see ourselves when we look and learn from someone else." Ortiz has written 15 books and is currently working with other writers and historians on a narrative text about the establishment of the image of Native Americans through the years. The work stems from the Frank A. Rinehart Indian Collection of photographs at Haskell taken in 1898. Ortiz's works have been translated into many languages including Italian, German and Russian. 000 823 MASS.

But wearing his trademark beret, Hemenway added some light yesterday to the University of Kansas finals season. A crowd began gathering on the front lawn of the Chancellor's residence, The Outlook, shortly before 4:30 p.m. About 200 people huddled together, trying to ignore a blustery wind as the KU brass band ensemble led by Thomas Stidham, associate professor of music and dance, played Christmas carols. "I want to thank you all for coming for what we hope will be a new tradition at KU — holiday lighting." Hemenway said. He asked the crowd of administrators, students, faculty and staff to sing carols led by Jeffrey Carter, doctoral candidate in choral conducting. "The only way this will work is if we all sing out loudly." Cornell said. The only way this win work is if we all sing out loudly." Carter said. The crowd sang one verse of "Deck the Halls," and a quick rendition of "Jingle Bells." Afterward, Hemenway addressed the crowd again. "I know that I'm all that's standing between you and cider," Hemenway said. He stepped to the table on the lawn to flip what he called a highly charged electrical switch to activate the lights. Hemenway led the crowd in a countdown to turning on the lights — and the crowd clapped and cheered as he flipped the switch. The lights decorate trees in the yard and the front of the house. Regina Polok, Hope sophomore, said she braved the cold for the holiday atmosphere. "I attended because I like Christmas," Polok said. Donna Schnur, Townsend, Mont., graduate student, said she enjoyed the festivities. "I hope there are more people next year." Schnur said. Hemenway said the afternoon should remind everyone to be thankful and to think of peace on earth and good will. The University is a community of people who care about each other, and this is the time of year to express care regardless of culture or religious background, Hemenway said. "The whole idea behind this is to give a certain sense of the holiday season," Hemenway said. JAMES GREENBERG Chancellor Robert Hemenway throws a power switch to light up his yard. After a short speech by Hemenway and music from the KU brass band ensemble, students and faculty were invited inside for hot cider.

David Keith / KANSAN Examining Student Senate's deaf ears failed the student body As one of the 1500 people who signed the petition to place a polling site on Daisy Hill, I was appalled at the actions of Student Senate Wednesday evening. Before the meeting even began, six individuals on the Student Senate Executive Committee refused to even place the bill for the polling site on the Student Senate agenda. When proponents of the legislation attempted to bring the bill off the floor during the Senate meeting, they were shot down twice before the bill was even allowed a hearing. And even then, very few Senators wanted to listen. Yes, this bill will be heard in committees next semester. But if Student Senators are not willing to address the issue of a polling site now, will they address it next semester? As for me, I was humiliated to think that I am involved in a student government that is unwilling to listen to the voice of one student, let alone 1500. After all, this same student government claims as its highest goal responsiveness to its constituencies. Yet the majority of the Nunemaker Senators, who represent the most Daisy Hill students, did not even want to consider having a discussion. Nicole Skalla Salina sophomore As a Student Senator, I believe that it is our responsibility to address the concerns of the student body. When 1500 students sign their name on a petition in support of an issue, Student Senate needs to listen to the message they send. During last night's meeting, this did not happen. I am appalled at the behavior of my fellow Senators. Proponents of the legislation attempted to bring it off the floor and were denied twice. It is one thing to disagree with a piece of legislation, but it is quite another to avoid discussion entirely. This is what happened last night. Important issues that affect our constitutencies ought to be discussed. Opponents of an issue could then publicize their rationale. This matter should not be taken lightly. This issue will be brought back next semester during the Student Rights and Finance Committee meetings. I encourage any student who feels strongly about this issue to voice their opinion during either of these two meetings, or stop by the Student Senate office. Sarah Schreck Liberal Arts and Sciences Senator Lenexa sophomore Residents of Daisy Hill have the right to be outraged, especially if you are one of the 1500 people who signed a petition to allow your voice to be heard at a Daisy Hill polling site. You should be infuriated at the actions taken this evening by your elected officials, specifically those actions taken by student body vice-president Mike Walden. A precedent was set last year when Student Senate established guidelines for the elections commission to follow during the last Student Senate election. Now, Walden prevented the Daisy Hill polling site issue from being heard in Student Senate because he claimed that the elections commission has the only authority to establish the election rules, when clearly in the past Student Senate ruled it under their jurisdiction to do so. Walden has good reason to strong arm an effort to reach non-greek voters. This unfair advantage greeks hold is what keeps Walden and other self-promoting senators in office. After admitting to this entire University that he is opposed to the issue of a Daisy Hill polling site in yesterday's "Kansan," he did not the dignified and respectful thing of stepping down as chair of Student Senate when the issue of a polling site was raised. Walden and the Greeks who supported him got their way. The momentum of support from Daisy Hill residents will have to wait until next semester. This is why it is so very important for Daisy Hill residents to talk to their senators. Tell them how much this means to the future of voting trends at this University. Tell them that we are fed up with the greek vote being the only vote that matters. Most importantly, tell them that we have a force of over 1500 people, and it's time that we be heard. I commend the senators who are in support of the Daisy Hill polling site. against the polling site merely because it allows the voices of people who do not necessarily support them to be heard. In particular, I am appalled at the actions of OUR student body president and vice-president who were elected to represent us ALL. They clearly have shown that they are going to pursue their own agendas. Lastly, I am also ashed of myself for supporting them and helping them get elected to office, thinking all too naively that they were going to do a good job at representing my concerns, as well as those of Daisy Hill residents. Erika Nutt Wichita junior I am disgusted with those who are Animal rights debate is not a polar issue When faced with a complex issue, people have an unfortunate tendency to take an absolute pro or con position rather than acknowledge any room for discussion. Clay McCuistion addresses two very different parts of the animal rights debate, medical testing on animals and frozen turkey bowling, and seems to feel that to support the one requires him to support the other. But this is not an issue of black and white morality, it is an issue of justifiability. The first case is a matter of animal suffering and death vs. saving human lives, whereas the second is animal suffering and death vs. wacky entertainment. Though no columnist would write it in the "Kansan," it is perfectly reasonably to eat meat, for example, yet feel that throwing the same dead animal down a hallway (and into the trash) is disgusting and disrespectful to life. Or to be a vegetarian, easy in modern society, and still support animal research as an extremely useful tool in science. Or to support animal research in medicine but not in eyeshadow. The beliefs that animal life has no value, or that its value equals human life, are the least reasonable and the most offensive. Kevin A. T.

Since my infancy I could never understand the act of throwing an object or kicking small probes into nets. I was kicked off of my was never good at sports. president soccer team for not properly eating the orange slices at half-time. In second grade Little League baseball the only contact I ever made with the ball was when my face decided to try and hit a homer, instead of the bat. It never got better. BRIAN BONDY In middle school, the PE instructors would break into my gym locker and steal my smelly gray clothes and hide them from me. W. David Keith opinion@kansan.com Then when I'd buy new gym clothes I'd try and play dodge ball but for some reason the athletic kids would always throw the balls at my face. I went through many pairs of glasses this way. Somedays I would run home, just a lost skinny boy in M.C. Hammer pants, wanting to find my place in this world. Little did I know that the sports world would soon be my oyster. When my freshman year of high school arrived I had learned how to use my skinny body for other uses ... making fellow children giggle. I would dance a jig with my elongated legs, perform a medley with my magical mouth, and the chuckles would echo throughout the halls. One would even go as far as to say that I had become quite the big man on campus. I decided to be like the other kids and show myself at something known as the "Friday Night Football Game." Bad idea. I had accidentally wandered into the zone of the stadium known as "Large, Mean Country Hick-land." Needless to say I was pummeled into a pile of shame and foolishness. I decided to hibernate from the social circuit for two years, restricting myself to my room and my marmalade jelly. I was a broken man. I couldn't even watch "Walker, Texas Ranger." Like a blemish, the pain went away and the winds of change blew, right into my junior year of high school. The paper said that our football team was going to be pretty swell. So I got up the nerve and went back to that stadium to face my demons ... and that was the night I met the Captain. From behind an old oak tree stepped a rotund, jolly man in a black cape and a scratched up football helmet. He was wearing our high schools' colors and I asked: "Who are you?" He just smiled, rubbed his belly and announced: "Son, I am the Captain. I am the spirit of sports mascots throughout time. I want you to join me in. in cheering on your high school football team." And with that he handed me a ratty, striped Tiger suit and a rubber glove. At that moment I became Lt. Tigerstrike, my high school mascot. People do not realize what responsibilities come with the power of being a mascot. Sure, there are the no-brainers like making "We are good! You are not!" signs for the crowd to hold. Following your team wherever they play and making so much crowd noise that your throat bleeds purple. If the team wins, you know you did your job. Then there are the other aspects of being a mascot. Children kick you and poke you with sticks. Opposing teams spit on you and make fun of your mother and you start to wonder how they even know your mother. Teachers start to volunteer you for things like hiding in trashcans at pep rallies and signing autographs at senior citizen homes. Then the team starts losing. Your own crowd turns against you. Not even a pelvic thrust can make them laugh. You spill your guts on that field for hours, rolling in mud, doing the wave, perfecting the Macarena — and none of it works. A piece of your soul is gone forever. This was my life for two years. But before I came to the University of Kansas, I turned my mascot costume in. The job had taken too big of a toll on me. Sleeping in my Tiger suit. Eating in my Tiger suit. Never kissing a girl in my Tiger suit. It was just too much. One must always respect those that are mascots, for they truly have nerves of steel. I pondered how I went from a sports zero to a sports hero — why had I forsaken myself for the very thing that I used to get my Young MC CDs stolen for? Because, kids, like the wise man Semacious once said: "In life there are only two paths, the path of the golden chalice of Hope and the path of the lobster in a wig. Choose your path wisely." Wait up, Mr. Lobster. I'm on my way. Keith is a Morse freshman in fine arts. Hard to stomach Barbie, even with new changes The sex icon of little girls everywhere as we know her may be headed to oblivion. With a little more persistence, women could possibly free them- tence, women could pos selves of the inhuman and inaccurate ideal presented by Barbie. Realism may be just around the corner. Mary A. Coulter Next year, as you may have heard, Barbie will get the third makeover of her life. Some dolls will get a new look. A wider waist, slimmer hips and smaller bust will replace some of the current Barbie world measurements of 38 · 18 · 34. I applaud Mattel's attempt, but it doesn't go far enough. Anna Attikisson opinion@kansan.com Not even the new closed mouth, softer, straighter hair and finer nose will be enough to bring the icon to her knees. Mattel refuses to admit that the change was at all motivated by past criticism of Barbie's unnatural, anemic look. The company insists that children have shown a desire for diversity in Barbie world, which may be true, but I contend that it is not beyond our grasp to influence change. Jean McKenzie, head of Mattel's Barbie division told the "Wall Street Journal" that, "In the 80s, Barbie's world was more blond targeted to glamour and beauty and activities that were right then. Now she'll have a contemporary look that's more natural and today. Kids tell us that everything we're doing to diversify away from pink and glamour and princess is right on." It is right on, but just making a slight change misses the mark. The huge toy company plans to retain the current, princess-look for some of the popular dolls. This is unacceptable. Permanent changes in the doll could do wonders for a female sense of self-esteem world wide. Just picture the immense decrease in bulimia and anorexia. It could be beautiful, and we have to make it happen. Granted, not all of these problems are totally motivated by one small toy, but her influence during the last 40 years is undeniable. The average little girl has seven. I had more than 20. Barbie may not have been originally designed to be close to human measurements or societal standards, but she has become a model for women that many have tried to pattern themselves after. Some even go so far as plastic surgery. This change opens the door to further alterations. Now that we have got our foot in the door it is time to wedge it open by sticking a large tushy in the way. I almost pity Barbie, eternally damned to stand on her tip-toes with the emblem of female beauty sitting on her shoulders. No matter what she tries to do, whether it be doctor or business woman, she still comes off as a blond-haired, blue-eyed bimbo. We could give her a whole new outlook on life. Life as a Barbie or Barbie pal must be very hard. Some are short-lived. I can still remember saying to my playmates how much I wanted that flat stomach, long legs, tiny waist and long stylish hair. I knew Barbie was just a toy, but that made it all the worse. I felt there must be something wrong with all women because Barbie was what was beautiful and I saw that most women didn't look right. It made me very sad to believe that I would never reach perfection. As I aged I learned that Barbie was unrealistic, and that real women had their own beauty. It could not be contained in a plastic model with detachable legs and head. Yet, I still have the occasional desire to live up to my childhood ideal. I suck my stomach in and stick my chest out, but it is still all me. Some women are never able to break away from this stereotype, and no matter what Mattel does, some women never will, but just think of that one child we could save from the unattainable goal Barbie presents. We cannot stop insisting on further change. The new changes Mattel has planned are a breakthrough. They must be praised, encouraged, badgered, and bugged until they submit to more changes. So handle the play So here's the plar Write to Mattel. Tell them to stop filling little girls heads with a sexy symbol of overly long legs and distinctly Aryan look. Give her a role or two on her stomach. Flatten her feet and see how well she fits into her thousands of high heels. For goodness sake, give the girl some panties.

December 5. 1997 The University Daily Kansan Section A • Page 5 Lawrence children, parents welcome Santa downtown By Corrie Moore cmoreo@kansan.com Kansan staff writer 1 Santa waves to the crowd after being rescued from the top of Weaver's department store, 901 Massachusetts St. Santa was rescued by a fire truck's ladder as a part of downtown Lawrence's annual tree lighting ceremony. Photo by Geoff Kringer / KANSAN The Christmas spirit came to Lawrence last night as residents gathered on the corner of Ninth and Massachusetts streets to wait for the arrival of Santa and Mrs. Claus. About 150 people attended the annual Downtown Lawrence Tree Lighting Ceremony and Santa's Arrival, which began at 5:30 p.m. The Senior Band, Home Harmonies and St. John's Elementary School Choir performed before the lights turned on. Lisa Blair, administrator at Downtown Lawrence Inc., organized the event and said she thought the cold weather and KU men's basketball game against Emporia State affected turnout. "We usually have an audience at least four times this," she said. Blair said the ceremony had been a Lawrence tradition for 20 years. This was her sixth year helping with the event. Mary Ellen Kriegh, Lawrence resident, has brought her two sons to the ceremony for the past six years. "It's a fun tradition." she said. "It's enjoyable for the kids." entertained the crowd between acts. A stage and Santa's house were set up in front of Mercantile Bank. Elves bedecked in green satin waited inside the house until Santa arrived. The evening kicked off with the master of ceremonies, Lawrence Childrens' Theater's Ric Averill, who introduced the groups and The Senior Band, directed by Amy Akin, was first to perform, followed by Home Harmonies, an a capella choral group. The group has performed the last few years at Santa's Arrival. Assistant city manager Rod Bremby read the editorial, "Yes Virginia, There is a Santa Claus," published in the "New York Sun." The last group to perform was St John's Elementary School Choir. A representative from Downtown Lawrence, Inc. and KSNT Television helped turn the lights on. Seconds later. Santa and Mrs. Claus appeared from the rooftop of Weaver's Department Store, 901 Massachusetts St. As Santa informed the crowd that his reindeer were resting after the long journey from the North Pole, sirens could be heard coming down the streets. A fire truck arrived and the large ladder was raised to rescue Santa and Mrs. Claus. Two firemen helped them down as the crowd cheered. After the Claus' safe arrival to the street, some parents gathered their children to present Santa with their Christmas lists, others headed home to escape the bitter cold. Old fashioned holiday parade to bring out Santa Claus Kansan staff report The fifth annual Eldridge Hotel Old Fashioned Christmas parade will start at 11 a.m. tomorrow at Seventh and Massachusetts streets and will end at 14th and Massachusetts streets. "It's a one-of-a-kind p.:'ade," said Rob Phillips, general manager of the Eldridge Hotel, 701 Massachusetts St. "It is very unique." Every year, the parade attracts between 30,000 and 40,000 people from all around the country. Phillips said. The parade includes 105 horse-drawn vehicles, and, most importantly, Santa Claus will be there to take Christmas requests.

Section A·Page 6 The University Daily Kansan Monday, December 5, 1997 Definition of a gang According to the Lawrence police department, a street gang is an ongoing organization, association or group of three or more persons, whether formal or informal that has a common name or identifying signs, colors, or symbols. Individually or collectively, their members and associates engage in, or have engaged in, criminal activity. "It's not against the law to be a gang member," said Mike McAtee, Lawrence police detective. "It's against the law to commit a crime. The whole purpose of a gang is to commit crime." McAtee said a person must meet all of the listed criteria to be identified as a gang member. Those criteria include: An individual who admits membership to a gang and displays a knowledge of gang activities An individual who is identified as a gang member by a reliable informant An individual who resides in or frequents a gang area and assumes a gang's dress style An individual who has been arrested several times in the company of known gang members for offenses that are consistent with gang activity An individual who does not meet the above criteria but has strong ties with a gang is identified as a gang associate. Gang behavior seen in Lawrence youth Continued from page 1A Trying to leave the life Kelly Lewis, a 16-year-old former member of SPL, a Lawrence based gang, lives at 203 Glencow. He was throwing a going-away party for his friend on Sept. 7, the night the gang fight erupted. Lewis, a Free State High School student, said most of the 30 young people, who attended what police labeled a gang-related function, left around midnight to be home in time for their curfews. After midnight, members of HOYAS, a rival Lawrence gang, showed up at Lewis' home. "The guy that was doing the stabbing was looking for me," Lewis said. "We had been in confrontations before." Lewis made the call to 911 and did not go outside until after the fight was over, and three Lawrence teen-agers, Brandon Masquas, Scott Brown and Dan Webber, had been stabbed. After the incident, Lewis quit the SPL gang, which he had joined when he was 14 years old. He said he joined because he and his friends thought it would be cool to be in their own gang. Lewis, who has not been charged with any crime related to the stabbing, said his mom knew he had been in a gang. "She never thought that it was that big of a deal," Lewis said. Even though he quit SPL, Lewis said his ties to the gang had not been severed. "I still have to watch my back," Lewis said. "At school I have to constantly look over my shoulder. It's going to take a while, but people aren't going to be looking at me anymore as a gang member." Hidden signs of trouble Michael Young. 18-year-old Lawrence freshman and member of the city's gang prevention committee since August, is two years older than Lewis. Young didn't know Lewis from high school and never saw any signs of gangs at Lawrence High School. Young said the gang incident that occurred at Lewis' home did not shock him since joining the committee, but it would have four months ago. "The first reaction is that it wouldn't happen here. This is Lawrence. I think it is very easy for us to insulate ourselves at KU." Young said. "Looking back at it, I know there were signs." And there are signs. Wells said. Graffiti littered with gang symbols and gang related incidents are signs of Lawrence's gang problem. But he said signs like graffiti go unnoticed by the public because of a city ordinance requiring graffiti to be removed immediately. "We have taken a very aggressive posture in Lawrence to get rid of it as soon as it pops up," Wells said. "It's here and gone rather quickly and that's not by acci dent. It's by design." But people should have little doubt that there are gangs in Lawrence, Wells said. A look at the juveniles arrested in the September stabbing paints a decidedly upscale picture of Lawrence gang activity. The parents of the four juveniles charged with felonies include a KU professor of law, a former city commissioner and a Lawrence business owner. Naming the players William Alan Rector, 17, has been charged with three counts of attempted second-degree murder. Richard and Debbie Rector are his parents. His father is employed by a local business, and his mother works at Lawrence Memorial Hospital. Richard Rector acknowledges there are gangs in Lawrence but said the September stabbing was not a gang fight. "I think that the police have a hard time distinguishing real gangs from real kids," Rector said. Zachary Turner is the son of Jo Anderson, a former city commissioner. His father is Ronald Turner, a resident of Topeka. The 17-year-old has been charged with one count of alding and abetting aggravated battery. Sarah Gottlieb, 16, is being charged with one count of aiding and abetting aggravated battery and one count of aiding a felon. Gottlieb is the daughter of David Gottlieb, professor of law, and Rita Sloan. Like many of the other individuals involved in this incident, Gottlieb does not fit the stereotypical gang profile. Anna Kimbrell, 16, has been charged with one count of aiding and abetting aggravated battery. Kimbrell is the daughter of David Kimbrell, owner of Oread Laboratories, Inc. Her mother is Janet Boulet Kimbrell. On the night of the incident, Gottlieb and Kimbrell were found at 4 a.m. at the Airport Motel, 1493 U.S. Highway 40, along with Jason Freeman and Skyland Love. Freeman and Love are charged as adults with four counts of aiding and abetting aggravated battery and one count of conspiracy to commit aggravated battery. Gottlieb, police said, drove some of the individuals involved in the incident to the motel. Three other adults have been charged with four counts of aiding and abetting aggravated battery and one count of conspiracy to commit aggravated battery. Information on the background of the five adults involved in the incident is contained in district court files, which were checked out by judges and lawyers. The nine people charged in the incident will appear in court during the next four months. Kimbrell's father said the fight had been blown out of proportion by the media. He said the incident at 203 Glenview may have been a fight among teenagers that went too far. Child's play "This certainly wasn't a gang problem," Kimbrell said. "I'm not trying to save that it wasn't serious." Kimbrell did not comment on the "The first reaction is that it wouldn't happen here. This is Lawrence." Michael Young, lawrence freshman, member of the gang prevention committee incident other than to say that he thought his daughter was at the wrong place at the wrong time. "Anna has not been a problem child," Kimbrell said. "This isn't the pattern of Anna's life at all." "It has caused a lot of heartache on the family," Kimbrell said. Kimbrell said the incident had caused his family embarrassment and a lot of money. Anna, who was on the staff of Free State High School's newspaper and was an honor roll student, has changed schools. She now attends a private school in the Kansas City area. Lewis said the fight was not a normal Lawrence gang activity. He said gang members in Lawrence did little more than hang out. "Anybody in gangs in Lawrence doesn't do a damn thing," Lewis said. "I don't think the public should be afraid of gangs. The gangs in Lawrence are not out to terrorize people." Lewis said the concern should be centered on gangs from larger cities that make stops in Lawrence. "I think there are more people coming down from Topeka and Kansas City," Lewis said. "That is something that everyone should be worried about." Insight from a convicted gangster Richard J. Solere, 20, from the Topeka area, is serving a 24-month sentence in the Winfield Correctional Facility. He was convicted for a drive-by shooting that took place in June of 1996 at 13th and New Jersey Streets. The 4 a.m. shooting marked a house with six bullet holes, including one in a bedroom. Four people were in the house. "I can't really say why I did that drive-by that got me in prison. I never intended to kill nobody or hurt nobody," Solere said. "I never thought that I would get caught because, to me, it wasn't that big of a deal. But I guess I was wrong and now I'm in here." Solere also said Lawrence gangs did not hit the stereotype and questioned if Lawrence had gangs at all. "I don't feel Lawrence has a real gang problem. For one, there aren't real gangs in Lawrence. There's a lot of wanna-be gangsters," Solere said. "All the real gang-related violence in Lawrence has been from gangs from other cities." Solere said while there were gangs in Lawrence affiliated with larger gangs, the Lawrence gangs did not act like their counterparts from larger cities, who protected territory and had members from rough neighborhoods. "Most of the youngsters come from good homes and are just trying to be cool," Solere said. "They don't know what it's really like to live that life on an everyday basis. If they actually grew up in a larger city where the shit is real and drive-by's and killings are an everyday thing, then I guarantee they wouldn't want to be gangsters no more." To discourage gang activity, the police department and the gang prevention committee have sponsored several public forums about gangs. Rebecca Gooden, who serves on the gang prevention committee, said Lawrence's early action against gangs was intended to prevent what could become an uncontrollable problem. Solele said parents had to play an integral role in children's lives to keep them out of gangs. Education and gang awareness will help them to make the right choices, he said. "I feel that parents can only help protect their kids from gangs by living in a neighborhood that is less likely to be gang infested. But the fact of the matter is, gangs are everywhere you go." Solere said. Solele said public forums and being tough on crime could prevent gang problems. "It's possible for a community to deal with and keep gangs out by simply getting involved." Solere said. "Let the gangs know that they're not going to tolerate gang activity. If there's pressure, then gangs won't be around too long. I think the Lawrence police are on top of the little gang problem they have." Ska Mob Tour to skank into Bottleneck this evening By Tom Winter Kansan staff writer twinter@kansan.com New York City ska will come to the Bottleneck late this afternoon. The Ska Mob Tour, a collection of three New York-based ska bands, will begin playing shortly after the doors open at 5 p.m. Tickets are $12. Of the three bands — the Slackers, Stubborn All Starss and Skin- nerbox — the Slackers and Skin nerbox have previously played the Bottleneck. Jango, vocalist and trombone player for the Slackers and Stubborn All Stars, said the Ska Mob Tour was made up of 16 musicians from two bands, which together actually represent three bands. This is because the Stubborn All Stars is a mixture of band members from the Slackers and Skinnerbox. "We guarantee 25 guys' worth of entertainment with only 16 guys in the bands," Jango said. "We did this show some time in March or April when the Slackers and Skinnerbox played together, and we just had the best time." The bands are made up of a bunch of old friends from New York, Jango said. "It was a way to get out on the road without leaving any of our boys at home," he said. The bands have played 11 shows so far on the tour and have another two and a half weeks to go before returning home. They also plan to tour together again in March. "If you like to dance, you're going to dig it," Jango said. "Our music runs the gamut from '50s to '90s ska." Jango said the music was a perspective of what was going on in ska, particularly in the New York ska scene. "It's a more rootsy kind of s than what you'd usually witness," he said. Josh Hunt, booking and publicity agent for Avalanche Productions, booked the bands. "They're great bands," Hunt said. "Live, they sound like they do recorded." Hunt said the audiences had enjoyed Skinnerbox and the Slackers when they had played in Lawrence before. The all-ages show will end by 9:30 p.m. GIVE YOUR FRIENDS THE GIFT OF KU FIT. ✩ ✩ (THEY'LL THANK YOU OVER SPRING BREAK.)

Photo by Geoff Krieger/KANSAN Coach spiked from Jayhawk volleyball team after four years By Kristie Blasi kblasi@kansan.com Sports editor Kansas volleyball coach Karen Schonewise's contract was not renewed for next season, Amy Perko, associate athletics director, announced yesterday. "We appreciated everything that Karen has done for the program over the past 10 years, including the recruitment of quality student-athletes," Perko said. The Jayhawks completed Chonewise's fourth season as head coach Saturday with KIAMU 45 30 Schonewise: Contract not renewed for next season a 9-24 overall record and a 2-18 record in the Big 12 Conference. Tournament. Kansas did not receive a bid to the tournament. The Big 12, Big 10 and Pac-10 were the only conferences to place six teams in the NCAA Chonewise's overall record with the Jayhawks is 34-86. Before becoming head coach in 1994, she spent six seasons as an assistant coach at Kansas for Frankie Albiz. "We felt it was in the best interest of the program to move in a new direction as we strive to be competitive in one of the best volleyball conferences in the country." Perko said. Senior middle blocker Maggie Mohrfeld said Schonewise had helped her when she joined the program her freshman year. "She's been here for a long time and done a lot for this program." Mohnfield said. Schonewise was unavailable for comment. Jan Madlock, who has worked for two years as assistant volleyball coach, will serve as interim head coach until the vacancy is filled. "As far as the future of the program, I think we're in great shape," Madlock said. "The returning players learned a lot this season. We've got a lot of athleticism returning. The future of the program is very bright." Perko said a national search for a replacement would commence immediately. "This is a big change for us," Mohrfeld said. "Any change is difficult to go through. We have a lot of talent on this team, but we just weren't getting the job done." Madlock said she thought the Kansas program and Big 12 competition would appeal to candidates, as well as the returning players. The volleyball signing period begins Feb. 4. Madlock said a lot of the recruiting had been done and that the recruits had been notified of the coaching change. 'Hawks swat Hornets By Tommy Gallagher tgallagher@kansan.com Associate sports editor The No. 2 Kansas men's basketball team did not practice or watch any tape in preparation for its game against Emporia State, but it didn't seem to matter last night. With a strong second-half performance, the Jayhawks defeated Emporia State 102-50 in Allen Field House. Every player except guard C.B. McGrath scored. The Jayhawks stormed out to a 17-5 lead early, but the Hornets were able to chip away late in the half. The Jayhawks led 39-30 at the break, and Kansas coach Roy Williams said he warned his team against a possible unset. "We had given them confidence in the first half," Williams said. "And if we didn't go out there and set the tone early (in the second half), they would have had even more confidence as the game moved on." Kansas did set the tone early, outscoring the Hornets 16-0 to start the half. Emporia State did not score until nearly seven minutes into the half. That trend continued the rest of the game as the Jayhawks had scoring runs of 20-4, 11-2 and 12-0 during the final 13 minutes. Emporia State committed a season-high 31 turnovers and shot less than 30 percent in the game. Kansas outscored the Hornets 63-20 in the second half. Williams said the team still has not played a perfect 40 minutes, but McGrath said the team's sometimes-sluggish performance could be looked upon as a positive. "We haven't played a full game and yet we're 8-0," McGrath said. "If we can do that, then we're in great shape down the road when we can do that." Five Jayhawks scored in double digits as they again were led by All-American forward Raef LaFrentz. LaFrentz scored a team-high 22 points and was 5-of-9 from the floor and 12-of-16 from the free-throw line. He had 10 rebounds and four blocked shots in just 22 minutes. Paul Pierce, Kansas' other preseason All-American forward, did not play because of a sprained right ankle. Williams said Pierce would have played only if was a significant game. Williams said the Emporia State game was not one that would prepare his team for the Big 12 Conference and the NCAA Tournament. "You should play a very difficult nonconference schedule and hope that gets you ready for the conference schedule and the tournament," Williams said. "But tonight, we messed up some and were successful because we were bigger." Freshman soars against Emporia Kenny Gregory dazzles crowd by scoring career-high 21 points By Matt Gardner sports@kansan.com Kansas sportwriter Kenny Gregory knew the time was going to come. Battling a sore back all year, Gregory knew there would be a time when the pain would go away and he could feel more comfortable on the court. Emporia State got a first-hand look at a healthy Gregory in Kansas' 102-50 defeat. The freshman shooting guard wowed the crowd with a careerhigh 21 points in 18 minutes on the court. "I felt good out there tonight." Gregory said. "My back has been bothering me a lot. I just make sure to stretch when I get up in the morning and before bed to help ease the pain." "I'm just trying to build up my confidence out on the court," Gregory said. "I'm reaching where I want to be, and I have made great strides on the court." Gregory said he had been improving his game in the past few weeks and he was beginning to feel more comfortable out on the court. 12 Point guard Ryan Robertson said Gregory was improving and had a lot to offer the Javahawks on the court. The three-guard combination proved successful for the Jay hawks: At times one of the guards was left open for a shot, and Emporia State once turned over the ball. Kansas tried something a little different in its offensive scheme against the undersized Hornets. The Jayhawks used a three-guard combination on the court several times that mostly included Gregory, Robertson and shooting guard Billy Thomas. "Once Kenny gets past that freshman-nerves stage he's going to see 20-25 minutes just because of his skill and talent," Robertson said. "He has potential to show great things for this team." "We felt like we had to play hard for 40 minutes and just couldn't keep that up in the second half," said Emporia State coach Ron Slaymaker. "Kansas came out with really good defense in the second half, and we just weren't as effective." The Hornets' strong first-half play was guided by the outside touch of shooting guard Troy Forbes. Because the Jayhawks were controlling the ball inside the paint, Emporia State was forced to shoot the ball outside the perimeter. Forbes landed four of five three-point attempts and 14 points in the first half, but thought he Kansas guard Kenny Gregory dunks for two of his career-high 21 points. The freshman converted nine of 13 field goal attempts, distributed two assists and had one steal. Photo by Geoff Krieger/KANSAN wouldn't have the same opportunity in the second half. "I knew as I was walking to the locker room at halftime that I would be lucky if I got a shot off in the second half." Forbes said. "I knew Roy was telling them to stick on that guy." Down by only nine points at halftime, Slaymaker knew the Jayhawks would play a lot tougher in the second half and was pleased with the effort his team put forth against Kansas. "They never quit playing hard out there," Slaymaker said. "We knew there was a possibility that we could play like this against Kansas. The last 20 minutes wasn't to our liking, but we just couldn't get anything going." Women's hoops glad they used Dial as sponsor of tournament By Penny Walker Kansan sportswriter The Kansas women's basketball team hopes to make a clean sweep this weekend in the Dial Soap Classic Tournament. Kansas has never played Coppin State, but coach Marian Washington said the 3-1 Javahawks could expect a workout. After playing their first four games on the road, the Jayhawks return to Allen Field House to face Coppin State in the first round tomorrow. "They're the kind of team that's been known to press a lot," Washington said. "We're going to have to work very hard to take care of the basketball." The Jayhawks have played host to the Dial Soap Classic for the past nine years with a record of 17-1 in Dial tournament play. Washington said she was happy to be involved with the Dial program, which sponsors several tournaments around the country. Dial has always been a strong supporter of women's basketball, and its tournaments are considered among the best. Washington said. The Jayhawks have traditionally had strong Decembers — not an easy task when December means class projects and term finals for players. Kansas will play either Grambling State or Southern California on Sunday in the championship or consolation game. "I think it's a great program," Washington said. "I've been with them a long time. We're reaching a point, however, where it's taking an awful lot to get people to want to come here and play us now. So we're just real hopeful that people will continue to see Dial as a worthwhile tournament." "We've been able to keep them pretty focused at this time of year, but obviously, the concern for finals and trying to prepare for finals is always there," Washington said. The staff tries to work with special situations like study groups or projects, she said. Point guard Jennifer Jackson said it was actually easier to get things done during the week when the players knew the weekend would be filled with a tournament. There simply isn't time to procrastinate, she said. As the Jayhawks prepare for the Dial tournament this weekend, it's anyone's guess who will be the team leader. In each of Kansas' four games this season, a different player has led in scoring. And Washington surprised some people when she replaced Koya Scott, the team's only senior, on the starting lineup with Nikki White, placing three freshmen in the starting lineup. The Dial Soap Classic will start at 1 p.m. tomorrow, with the Kansas-Coppin State game at 3 p.m. The consolation game will begin at 1 p.m. Sunday, and the championship game will follow at 3 p.m. The Starting Lineup KU KANSAS JAYHAWKS 3-1 overall G **JENNIFER JACKSON** 5-10 FR.

The team will be playing for its second tournament championship in as many months at Iowa this weekend. The bracket consists of six teams. The club, in its fifth year, recently achieved one of its biggest accomplishment in the club's history by taking first place in the Western Illinois Water Polo Invitational. The Jayhawks competed against three teams in the tournament, which was from Nov. 15 to 16. There were supposed to be six teams, but two of the squads were unable to make it on time. "We played exceptionally well throughout the entire tournament, especially the more experienced Success at the club level often makes teams hopeful of varsity status, but Chitwood said the idea of an intercollegiate team hadn't even entered his or any other team member's minds. Chitwood said the club would be accepting new team members through the beginning of the spring semester. "We did a good job of sticking to our game plan which was defensive pressure," said Jon Chitwood, Tulsa, Okla., junior. play host to a tournament during the spring semester. In the opening game of the tournament, Kansas took on Northern Illinois and went away with an easy 15-4 win. The Jayhawks then had a tight battle with the Iowa Hawkeyes and won 10-8. Most of the coed team's 17 members have high school water polo experience. "We would love to have an intercollegiate team on campus, but the funding and support from the athletic department is just not there." Chitwood said. 'Hawks look to beat elite players," said Brent McHugh team member and Columbia, Mo., senior. Kansas played the host team, Western Illinois, for the tournament championship. The Jayhawks' solid defense and opportunistic scoring allowed the team to come home with a first place championship trophy after winning 8-4. Those interested may contact either Recreation Services in 207 Robinson or send e-mail to Jon Chitwood at okjhawk.ukans.edu Chitwood said the club practiced and played throughout the school year and team members hoped to Swimmers to get shot at three ranked teams during weekend meet By Dawn Wolf sports@kansan.com Kansas sportswriter The Kansas swimming and diving teams jumped into the pool this morning for the first day of the Georgia Invitational. The meet is today through Sunday at the University of Georgia in Athens, Ga. "The level of competition will be phenomenal this weekend," said Kansas swimming coach Gary Kempf. "There will be four of the nation's top programs battling each other." The No. 22 Jayhawk men will be competing against three teams, all ranked in the top 10. Tennessee is ranked No. 5 and Florida State is No.9. Georgia is ranked No.4 in the nation. For the No.29 Kansas women, the competition also will be intense. Tennessee ranks No.11, and the women's squad from Georgia is ranked No.4. Junior backstroker Jeanine Wilk said the meet order was a good practice for the championships in February. Senior diver Brian Humphrey said he did not know what to expect from the other team's divers, but he knew it would be great competition. The invitational is much like the Big 12 Conference championship meet. Events are divided among three days with preliminary races in the morning. The top swimmers and divers of the morning session compete in the finals at night. "The meet is set up like conference." she said. "So the freshmen and the rest of the team can experience a championship meet with challenging competition earlier in KU SWIMMING As for the performance of the Jayhawks thus far, Kempf said he was proud of his squad. the season." "Traditionally, Tennessee and Georgia have really good divers," he said. "I just want to go, dive well and feel good about my performance." "We've gotten through some early training struggles with great attitudes," he said. "I know we'll do a great job this weekend."

Brown leaves Tar Heels to beef up Longhorns Brown, who coached the Tar Heels for 10 years, replaces coach John Mackovic who was fired last month. Texas' record was 4-7 this season, and the team allowed a record number of points, 33.2 a game on average. Six of the seven-worst, single-season The Associated Press Brown, whose No. 7 Tar Heels are a candidate for an Alliance Bowl berth, was interviewed by Texas defensive performances in Longhorns history were during Mackovic's six-year tenure as coach. A source said Brown was sought for the Texas job because he has proven he can win at a school with strong academics, is an offensive coach who has also fielded strong defenses and will fit in well in Texas because of he was somewhat of a good 'oil boy. officials Wednesday. Brown will receive a considerable pay raise. The Texas job pays roughly $625,000 per year. Brown's base salary at North Carolina was about $170,000. Cornhuskers focus on Big 12 title Nebraska looks to avenge loss in last year's championship The Associated Press LINCOLN, Neb. — Nebraska has changed the way it feels about the Big 12 championship. Entering last year's game in St. Louis, the Cornhuskus had proclaimed the contest a nuisance — another potential pitfall as the Huskers strived for a third straight national title. Coach Tom Osborne's concerns were realized when Texas won 37-27. sh*boom Ine Huskers insist things are different now. The trip to San Antonio for tomorrow's game between No. 2 Nebraska (11-0) and No. 14 Texas & A&M (9-2) is no longer a necessary evil. It'll part of the schedule. In 1996, a 19-0 loss at Arizona State in the second game made for a rocky start. Nebraska played the rest of the way knowing another loss would mean no national title. "Then there was all the talk around here about whether we should even be playing in this game," said quarterback Scott Frost Like last year, Nebraska is heavily favored. Yet the Huskers maintained this week that a victory is no foregone conclusion. Osborne and his players said last year erased any chance of that feeling. Talk ended with coach John Mackovic's fourth-and-inchs gamble from the Texas 28 with 2:38 left, as the Longhorns nursed a 3-point lead. James Brown's 61-yard pass to Derek Lewis set up the final touchdown on the next play. Nebraska cruised through its Big 12 schedule. Then, in the regular season finale, the Huskers outlasted Colorado 17-12. 924 massachusetts - lawrence, ks - 785-749-9559 RECYCLE AIM HIGH Want to fly? Serve Your Country?

So, instead of fighting it, I'm going to join in this year with a review of Christmas albums. There is one catch though; these are some of the most unusual ones that I could find. Enjoy a diverse holiday season. Christmas Death Row PARENTAL ADVISORY EXPLICIT CONTENT Various Artists — "Christmas On Death Row" — "Death Row" What could conjure up warm and fuzzy memories like "Christmas On Death Row?" I couldn't think of anyone better to sing Christmas classics like "The Christmas Song" and "Silent Night," than Snoop Doggy Dogg or Tha Dogg Pound. But to be fair, this CD is pretty good. The majority of the songs are good slow-jam versions of traditional songs. The first track is by far the best. It is a rendition of James Brown's "Santa Claus Goes Straight to the Getto." Although Brown's version is by far better than Snoop Doggy Dogg's, the backup vocal of Isaac Hayes (the voice of Chef on "South Park") makes the song decent. The track "Silver Bells" performed by Michelle is great. Her vocals and arrangement lend a new soulful twist to this standard song. If you are looking for a modern Christmas song, "Party 4 Da Homies" is for you. It may be Christmas, but Sean Barney Thomas still wants to "get his groove on with you." This CD is warm, sweet and 'tight' all at the same time. Bummed Out Christmas! Various Artists — "Bummed Out Christmas" - Rhino Does Christmas make you sad? When you hear holiday cheer do you want to douse Santa with hot chocolate? Welcome to a "Bummed Out Christmas," the album that dares to say, "I'm not going to have a merry Christmas!" Rhino records has complied novelty Christmas songs from artists like the Everly Brothers, Clyde Lasley and the Cadillac Baby Specials and country legend, George Jones. And let's face it, when it comes to suffering, no one knows more than George Jones. With songs like "Santa Came Home Drunk," "Christmas in Jail" and "Santa Got A DWI." it will make you appreciate your holiday plans. Christmas In Chelsea Stars To prove that you can take a movie tie-in too far. Rhino has re-released the "Christmas in the Original Cast — "Christmas in the Stars: A Star Wars Christmas Album" — Rhino Stars" CD. Originally, the album was made to coincide with a TV special by the same name.The songs on "Christmas in the Stars" are sung by original cast members of the movie. But don't expect to hear Harrison Ford or Carrie Fisher belting out tunes. The only actual cast member on the CD is Anthony Daniels, the voice of C3PO, and the special effects that created R2-D2 and Chewbacca. The best song on the CD is "That's What You Get A Wookiee (When He Already Has A Comb?)." Imagine a Cascio keyboard and munchkins singing, and you have the song. On an interesting note, on the track "R2-D2 We Wish You A Merry Christmas," the teenage lead singer is none other than a young Jon Bon Jovi. May the Force be with you. NIITI HOLIDAY CHRIST FROM SANTA'S PAS Christmas cocktails Various Artists- "Ultra Lounge- Christmas Cocktails" -Capitol Once again, the Ultra Lounge folks show us it'S OK to be cool, even during the holidays. The CD swings with jazzy versions of "Winter Wonderland" by Peggy Lee and "I'd Like You For Christmas" by Julie London will make you want to forget the eggnog and grab a martini instead. Ray Anthony adds a bit of Mod music to this Christmas scene, and Billy May provides the Mambo. The infamous 'Rat Pat' is represented by Dean Martin and "I've Got My Love To Keep Me Warm." This CD is so good that if were an Christmas party, someone would get fired. So ditch the sentiment and pony on over to this swingin' good time.

Flint Junod, Burlingame freshman, was released about 6:30 p.m. Friday after being treated for a concussion, cuts and bruises, a hospital representative said. Rebecca Smalley, Overland Park junior, was released Friday night after having been treated for minor bruises, he said. At about 3:10 p.m. Friday, Junod, Smalley and several other students had left a biology class in the museum and were walking on Sunflower Drive when a white Toyota Celica jumped the curb and hit the two students from behind. Smalley was brushed in the leg by the corner of the car, but Junod was hit directly. He smashed into the windshield and tumbled over the car. Vincent Nguyen, Salina freshman, was driving the car that hit the two students. He was ticketed for reckless driving by KU police Saturday. The vehicle had left the Memorial Stadium parking lot and was headed south toward campus on Sunflower Drive, said KU police Stg. Chris Keary. Nguyen told police that his foot had gotten caught between the brake and the accelerator. He then turned and jumped onto the curb, Keary said. Derek Haines, Wellington freshman and friend of Junod's, was standing about 100 feet behind the two students when they were hit. "We have had situations where people have been struck by cars, but this is a little more unusual," he said. "Usually, pedestrians are in the roadway when they're struck by a car." "There were quite a few people walking up the hill," he said. "Most of them managed to see the car and luckily got out of the way, but Junod didn't see it coming." Haines said that before the car swerved onto the sidewalk, it peeled out and left black marks on the pavement. Andrew Rohrback / KANSAN Spencer Museum of Art Kansas Union Students struck by car "He jumped the curb, and the whole car was up on the grass," he said. M Students in need of cash can become human guinea pigs to test the effectiveness of new drugs. In their desire for money, these medical prostitutes must disregard hassles and potential risks. weird science By Sarah Chadwick schadwick@kansan.com Kansan staff writer Paola senior Juan Heath has been selling his body to science for about two and a half years. "I used to be squeamish about giving blood," said Heath, a Latin American studies student, "but when there was a monetary incentive, my outlook changed." Heath is one of several college students who supplement their education by collecting cash for participating in clinical trials. They have been called bio-pimps, biosluts and lab rats. Some go to school while living entirely off the money made from being human guinea pigs. These students allow their bodies to be pumped full of drugs to test the pharmaceuticals' effectiveness and side effects. lure students. It's a chancy business, some doctors save, but the easy money continues to sav. "I saw an IMTCI ad in the 'Kansan," Heath said. "Because I have asthma, I am interested in research because it produces new medicine. It's nice getting the money, but also nice discovering new medicines." IMTCI stands for International Medical Technical Consultants, Inc., a clinical research organization that conducts clinical trials for pharmaceutical companies. There are two IMTCI facilities in Johnson County. Both draw University students to be test subjects. "I know a man that put himself entirely through school by doing these studies," said Beverly Vail, manager of recruiting for IMTCI. See WEIRD on page 3A Participants make between $30 and $3,000 per study, depending on the risks involved and how long the participant must stay at the facility. In-house participants remain for the duration of the KU senior competes for Rhodes accolade Jennifer A. Yeoman jyeonaman@kansan.com Kansas staff writer Lee Havis, Overland Park senior, competed Friday and Saturday for one of four Rhodes Scholarships from the Midwest region, but she was not selected for the prestigious award. Havis advanced to the regional competition in Minneapolis, Minn., for the final interviews on Dec. 5. She was notified Saturday that she was not a scholarship recipient. Jonathon Winkler, a Kansas State University senior from Wichita, received a scholarship. The University of Kansas last had a Rhodes Scholar in 1993. "She was very nervous, just like you would expect," Doron Havis, Lee's father, said. "But she was very proud with the state nomination, and she enjoyed going." Havis is a political science major with plans of becoming a public service lawyer. She is studying at Tel Aviv University in Israel this semester. The Rhodes Scholarship Trust paid for her airplane tickets to the competition. Havis left the competition only to fly to Kansas City to pick up her suitcase before returning to Tel Aviv, where she is in the middle of her midterms. "She would have left immediately, no matter the outcome," Doron Havis said. "Life goes on regardless." Havis was the only woman to advance to the regional competition. Women were not allowed in the competition until 1976. This year, 13 of the 32 Rhodes scholarships went to women. The Rhodes Scholarship is available to students who will receive a bachelor's degree this year or to students who recently have received a degree. The scholarship allows the winners to study for two years at Oxford University in England. The scholarship was established in 1904 by Cecil Rhodes, a British philanthropist. Since then, the University of Kansas has had 23 Rhodes Scholars. Barbara Schowen, director of the honors program, said she was proud of Havis. "She did wonderfully to have gotten that far." Schowen said. Christy Dalke, Overland Park senior, and Ruben Sigala Jr., University of Kansas graduate, competed for the scholarship, along with Havis, at the state level on Dec. 3. "We certainly had great applicants," Schowen said. "There was very heavy competition. I'm sure that they will all have very great futures." Bookstore's first chapter opens amid storm of protests By Rachelle Detweiler By Rachlee Detwiler rdetwiler@kansan.com Kansan staff writer On its first day of business in Lawrence, Borders bookstore was met by an onslaught of customers, but it also was met by a group of about 15 picketers. The protesters stood in front of the store at Seventh and New Hampshire streets Saturday. Lawrence police responded to a complaint from an upset Borders customer and reprimanded the protesters, saying that the group was blocking the sidewalk and trampling the grass while handing out leaflets. "We don't hate Borders," said Matthew Caldwell, Lawrence senior and event organizer. "We don't hate big business. We just need some things to change." One of the issues the filers addressed was alleged employee intimidation by the company. "There are many people clearly not happy about us being here, Caldwell said. "It's because when we mention unions, people ge angry." Caldwell said that Miriam Fried, a Borders worker in Philadelphia, was fired in June after trying to form a union for Borders workers. Protesters were concerned about the potential for unethical business practices in the Lawrence branch. The alleged intimidation of union supporters was one of many causes the picketers cited for the protest. The threat of Borders moving into downtown caused Terra Nova bookstore, 920 Massachusetts St., to close shop, its owners said. It eventually could drive the Raven, E 8. Ethical, out of business, said Scott Ferre, McPherson junior. Ferree said that both locally owned shops offered a unique sampling of books and had a atmosphere that chain stores lacked. Ringo Witkowski, Wayne, Neb., sophomore, complained that the chain store had the city pay $100,000 for the store's parking lot even though Borders takes in $1.8 billion nationwide each year. "If you look at the industry standards, we pay at or about the average rate," she said. Borders offers a retirement plan, employee stock options and medical and dental benefits, she said. Borders general manager Lisa Bakke, who has worked in four Borders stores, said she never had experienced some of the group's concerns and never had witnessed managerial intimidation. "We've had a strong feeling of support," she said. "We want to fit into the community and be a part of Lawrence." "It's just dumb," said Nathan Messer, Borders shopper. "It doesn't make any sense." Shoppers now can buy virtually any book they want without having to place an order, a request that frequently occurs at smaller, locally owned bookstores. Messer said. The instantaneous service eventually could drive longtime operators out of business and prevent smaller bookstores from placing their roots in Lawrence. Caldwell said. "Most people will shop there," Caldwell said. "We're not trying to make those people feel guilty. We're trying to build a bond in the community. If there was a bond, Borders wouldn't be here." COR CU Andrea Nyhoff, Hays senior, Brian Ireland, Topeka junior, and Scott Ferree, McPherson sophomore, along with about 13 other people, held signs on Saturday in front of Borders bookstore urging people to support locally owned businesses.

Coke machines block access to water fountains People who use wheelchairs may have to buy a Coke if they want their thirst quenched in Wescoe Hall. On the second floor of Wescoe, there are two Coke machines, one of which blocks the handicapped-accessible water fountain in the main hallway. There is a similar problem on the third floor with a Coke machine and a Hershey's machine. "It was brought to my attention by an F&O employee who is himself disabled," said Elizabeth Banks, associate professor of classics. "It seemed to be something that needed attention. It makes me angry that the big corporation now has all of the concessions on campus and is not responding to a University official to remedy the situation. We have to comply with ADA regulations." Banks is not the only faculty member who has seen the problem and complained. "The day after they put it in, I noticed that they set it up so that a wheelchair would have to come in at an angle — not an effective way to get in," said David Dinneen, chairman and professor of French and Italian. Dinneen and Banks filed complaints to the University. Michael Shuttie, associate director of Services for Students with Disabilities. "Since the Coke machines are bolted down, F&O can't do anything to them," Shuttic said. "I called the representative from Coke before Thanksgiving, and she said that they would be moved last week, but they still haven't been moved. I guess I'll need to call her again." received the complaints and has tried to get Coke to remedy the situation for almost four weeks, he said. Shuttic said that he had been working with Coke to get the machines equipped with braille buttons and that he didn't know what it would take to get the machines moved. Kansan staff report NATIONAL Republicans threaten Reno with contempt of Congress WASHINGTON — Republicans threatened Attorney General Janet Reno with contempt of Congress yesterday because of her decision to forgo an independent counsel's investigation of White House campaign fund raising. One GOP senator, Orrin Hatch of Utah, said he was asking FBI director Louis Freech to bypass Reno, his boss, and investigate allegations of Democratic impropriety in fund raising. "I have no doubt that the political appointees in the department who have been influencing her are doing nothing but Reno: Receiving Republican threats protecting the president," said Senate Judiciary Committee chairman Hatch on CBS" Face the Nation." Sen. John Glenn, D-Ohio, shot back, "Was it protecting the president when she appointed four independent counsels that all took aim at the White House?" Before the cameras were turned on, Glenn flashed Reno a thumb-to-forefinger OK sign and told her he admired her for standing up for her principles on the independent counsel decision. On Tuesday, Reno announced her decision not to request a court-appointed independent counsel to look into fundraising calls that President Clinton and Vice President Al Gore had made from the White House. In a 69-page brief and accompanying news conference, she said they had broken no federal laws. Furious about Reno's decision, Republicans used yesterday's talk-show circuit to lob a series of threats at her and the Justice Department. Rep. Dan Burton, chairman of the House Government Reform and Oversight Committee, said on "Fox News Sunday" that the panel would consider recommending a contempt of Congress charge if she refused to comply with its subpoena seeking Freeh's memo endorsing an independent counsel. "We're going to reach maybe a little crisis here," Burton said. Asked whether he would cite Reno for contempt, he said: "That's the step we'll have to look at next." "Obviously if we cited her for contempt, it would have to go to the Justice Department for carrying out that contempt citation. And she would be making the decision on that," he said. But with a chuckle, he acknowledged an inherent problem with that action. Reno did not rule out sending Burton the memo with sensitive information blacked out. On "Face the Nation," Reno insisted she was not protecting anyone. "If I were protecting people, I'd close up the shop and go home," she said. INTERNATIONAL Russian jet crashes, hits housing buildings IRKUTSK, Russia — It was a quiet, bitterly cold afternoon on Grazhdanskaya Street, where a group of men chatted and smoked while tinkering with their battered cars. Many of their wives were out shopping. A teen-age girl sit by her living room window, puzzled about her chemistry homework. Suddenly, a roar shook her apartment building — and set her neighborhood on fire. "When I looked out the window, I saw a burning car and a woman running out of another apartment building with her fur coat on fire. A man was lying on the ground," said Lena Meistakhova, 15. "Then a wave of heat came through the house." A huge military cargo jet that seconds earlier had lifted off from an airfield a mile away slammed into No. 45 Grazhdankaya Saturday, clipping an orphanage with its wing and demolishing one end of the five-story apartment building. The men who had been happily chatting by their cars died beneath falling wreckage. Those who saw the crash spoke of huge sheets of flames that engulfed surrounding buildings. A day later, steam and smoke from burning fuel that had soaked into the ground was rising into the overcast sky. Rescuers searched for bodies in the 5-degree weather, and the stench of burned wood and fuel filled the air. Water from bursting pipes and firefighters' hoses coated flame-scarred buildings with a layer of ice. Curtains of icicles draped every shattered window. The An-124 Russian air force transport plane that crashed Saturday was carrying two jet fighters built at a local factory for export to Vietnam. The export was a rare bit of good news for the battered aircraft industry in this Siberian city of 700,000 people. Ten seconds after taking off, the plane was in trouble. A woman who heard the shrill, ragged roar of the jet's engines said it was leaning to one side, a wing tilting toward the ground. Once the pride of the Soviet aircraft industry, Irkutsk factories barely function these days, starved of cash and orders. Thousands of workers have been laid off or go months without being paid. Then came a shattering explosion. The plane, the size of a Boeing 747 jumbo jet, was carrying 100 tons of fuel in its tanks. There were 23 crew and factory staff aboard, escorting the fighters to Vietnam. —The Associated Press ON THE RECORD A KU student's 1984 Hana Accord was stolen between 4:30 and 5:05 a.m. Thursday from the city at large, Lawrence police said.

Out-house participants complete a few short visits to the facility. Their checks are sent to them after the study. "I just try to keep out of my mind that there's a needle in my arm," Heath said. "I just think of the money I'm getting." Once a student calls, researchers begin the screening process. At check-in, participants get a set of hospital "scrubs" to wear for the duration of their stay. "There is an initial visit," Heath said. "They do blood draws, a urinalysis, ask lifestyle questions about how much you exercise, if you smoke and so on. That takes about one hour. They also test your lung capacity in most trials." Common drug trials include treatments for asthma, allergies, diabetes, high blood pressure, heart burn, sinusitis and even birth control pills. "Some studies are mutually beneficial," said Randall Rock, Watkins Health Center chief of staff. "They get information and students get access to cutting edge care, or care that they wouldn't otherwise afford. Lipid, heart, and asthma studies allow that." Women who are pregnant or at risk of getting pregnant should not participate in the studies, Rock said. Risky Business Even though the test trials are heavily regulated, there still are risks involved when people subject themselves to testing. A urinalysis, Vail said, always is done on women to ensure they are not pregnant. In the past, a couple of women ended up getting pregnant while on the test drugs, Vail said. These drugs were not the birth control pills. "Basically they did not follow directions." Vail said. "The pharmaceutical company will follow them throughout the pregnancy to make sure the baby is OK." The consent form test subjects sign spells out a long list of side effects they face to earn their money. Risks often include nausea, headaches and chills. Vail said. "In the in-patient tests, we're testing medications for the first time in humans, testing to see what the side effects are." Vail said. "That's how they find out what they are." Despite the risks, Rock said, he can see why students would participate in the studies. "It's a good place to study with minimal distraction and get paid for it." Rock said. Aryeh Hurwitz, KU Medical Center physician, said that the studies can be beneficial. "As long as it's properly monitored, which it is, and it's well performed, then it's OK," Hurwitz said. "You won't release a drug to the public before it's studied. If you have informed consent, are thoroughly advised of the risks, and are compensated for time, discomfort and risk. I have no objection to participation in that." Costly reminders "They hooked me up to an IV that was a saline solution," Heath said. "It was to see if you react to anything other than the drugs. Other than that, it was pretty boring. You just watch movies, do homework, read a book. They are really conscious of college students and their schedules." But the atmosphere is not exactly collegiate or medical. "I felt like I was in prison," he said. "The food was really bad and I was kept in there for 40 straight hours. My mom works across the street at Informix. She came to visit me a couple of times. That kind of adds to the prison feel. You can only have visitors in certain rooms at certain times." Brian Lavid, Buffalo, N.Y. senior, also sold his body in the name of medicine. "It is just a way of making money," said Lavid, who earned $1,100 for an 11-day, in-house visit. Lavid, along with his older brother Eric, completed a blood thinner test at Innovex, another clinical research company in Kansas City. The purpose of the test was to see how long it took blood to clot after taking the pill. The drug eventually would be used to benefit heart disease and stroke patients. "There were between two and seven blood draws each day," Lavid said. "They cut you and did a bleeding time test to see how long it took blood to clot." Lavid still bears the marks of his $100-per-day job. SHARONY weird science "They said it wouldn't scar, but it did. It's not a big deal, though. It's just my little reminder of the experience," Lavid said, as he rubbed his fingers over the small white scars that trail the inside of both of his arms. "I felt like I was a heroin addict or something when I left because my arms were all purple and cut," he said. Lavid did not think his side affects were serious, but Rock said that some side affects could be. "Those students who have special health care needs or concerns should touch base with their regular doctor before they participate in these studies," Rock said. "If there is a negative effect or loss of control for illness or medications, then the person goes back to their health care provider to deal with side effects. It's better that they know that ahead of time, and anticipate for it." Beyond blood tests, Lavid's clinical trial was pretty boring, he said. Lab life "We were just hanging out until they needed you," he said. "We started with five people. One left because he was going crazy. The four of us were really lucky we all got along well. We played hearts and spades all day long and watched a lot of movies." The participants in Lavid's study could not shave and were not allowed to exercise to the point of perspiration. An extra cut from shaving would have altered the study results. Lavid said. "They collected all of our urine," Lavid said. "We had to ring a doorbell to go into the bathroom with a jug. We couldn't get into the bathroom unless we showed them theug." Ringing a doorbell to use the restroom and not shaving are not the only common clinical trial rules, said Vail, the recruiting manager. "We have a dorm where the women are separated from the men if it is a male/female study," Vail said. "For the blood draws, you have to be at your bed. Everything is timed to the second." Patients are given clipboards marked with the times to be at their beds as well as meal times and other activities. Chad King, Overland Park senior recently completed an asthma study at IMTCI. "We were required to eat at the same time and all at the same stuff," said King. "That way they could tell it it was the medicine or if it was the food. Also, we had to take a dose at 8 a.m. and 8 p.m. everyday." King was urged to do the study by Heath, his roommate. "I talked it over with my mom beforehand and she didn't think there would be anything too bad for you." King said. "I didn't really have any side effects. I was always light headed after I took the medication because there was a lot of medication in my system that normally is not there. There weren't any other side effects." Guinea Pig, Inc. Heath, who has participated in more than five stud. a. less paid taxes on close to $3,000 last year. * "It's almost like being self-employed." Heath said "They need your social security number and they turn everything in to the IRS. The tax filer set it up and labeled me self-employed." The name of Heath's company? "Guinea Pig," he said. The money made from these studies has helped Heath pay for school expenses, buy computer equipment to supplement his Web site building business and has financed some entertainment, as well." King used the $1,100 he earned to pay school expenses and other bills. "I'm not sure that I would want to do it again," Fing said. "Some of the people there are just weird. One guy lived off of studies for a year, no other jobs. He bought a car, paid his rent, everything from studies." King had an opportunity to make another $150 last summer, but did not think the study was worth it. "It was a ragged study," he said. "They wanted to put me in a tent full of ragweed for a day and test a drug. I didn't know if I would get the placebo or the real thing. I thought I would get too sick in that one I didn't deem getting sick for that kind of money worth it."

Kevin Frost/ KANSAN Examining Give us a break,pencil sharpeners would be a nice gift for Christmas Many students have undoubtedly noticed the unusually high number of classrooms at the University without pencil sharpeners. Amid concern about the University falling behind in technology and becoming stalled on the information superhighway, University administrators have forsaken a basic student right — that of writing with a pencil. To remedy the gross inconveniences that the University has caused students who dull their pencils taking notes or tests, pencil sharpeners should be placed in classrooms most frequented by students, namely lecture halls. Administrators often exhort grandiose ideas about how to make things more technologically advanced at the University. But it is ludicrous that a learning institution of this magnitude does not even have the technological advancements of elementary schools—common pencil sharpeners. So why are there so few pencil sharp eners in classrooms on campus? Oddly enough, no one has an answer. Robert Porter, of facility operations, said the issue of pencil sharpeners has never been raised with him. Porter said facility operations would be in charge of installing sharpeners if it was told to do so but the order has yet to be given. Assistant Provost Richard Givens was not aware of any historical reasons behind the lack of sharpeners, but he said maintaining the sharpeners may present a problem. Givens said it would be difficult to keep a pencil sharpener clean and operable in an environment like a classroom. Obviously, students must be responsible pencil sharpener users and not break the sharpeners or carelessly spill pencil shavings on the floor. But if students uphold their end of the bargain, then maintaining the sharpeners would be minimized. Some argue that pencil sharpeners are no longer needed in an era where fancy pens and mechanical pencils have seemingly taken over. But there are drawbacks to modernized writing instruments. Students cannot fill out Scantron bubbles with pens, and mechanical pencils are expensive and break more easily than regular pencils. Before we take leaps and bounds toward aspirations of modernity, we must first take baby steps. Installing pencil sharpeners in classrooms at the University is one such step. Many students use pencils in their classes. Therefore, no matter how trivial it may sound, the University has the responsibility to guarantee that every student has the right to a sharp pencil. Nick Zaller for the editorial board Athletes' egos are ruining sports Coaches and their players have had conflicts since the invention of organized sports. Basketball, football, soccer — all entail athletes taking directions from a coach. The recent assault on Golden State Warriors coach P.J. Carlisimo by player Latrell Sprewell illustrates the way professional athletes are treated has degraded the player-coach relationship, especially in the National Basketball Association. Players must have a certain amount of respect for their coaches. In most cases, the players are physically superior to their coaches, so respect certainly doesn't come from physical intimidation. The respect must come from the knowledge and experience a team's leader has in his or her sport. team's leader has in his or her sport. This kind of respect is hard to find in the NBA. Overpaid players, protected by an overzealous players' union, act like they are the ones running the team—not the coach. From The Chicago Bulls' Scottie Pippen refusing to play unless he could take the last shot in a game to Sprewell's act, there are myriad examples of this behavior. egotistical acts by professional athletes warp the way budding athletes see themselves. This has to change. With the constant bombardment of commercials featuring NBA players, America's youth are going to grow up believing they, not their coach, is the authority on the playing field. Just as violent television shows and movies are thought to lead to violent behavior, Sprewell's contract was terminated by the Warriors. This was the right thing to do. If Sprewell's behavior — which included choking his coach during practice and then coming back later and punching him — was tolerated, it would have been the last straw for an already morally deficient NBA. Sprewell was punished, which is good. However, more steps still need to be taken to bring respect back to professional athletics. More effort must be made to stop the rampant egotism that is choking the life out of sports. Gerry Doyle for the editorial board Kansan staff Bradley Brooks . . . Editorial Jason Strait . . .

Reflecting Remember the details and life will be gravy The best gift that I can give you in celebration of the holidays is a change in perspective. After only breaking my neck in an automobile accident that probably should have killed me, I have certainly had a change in mine. It shouldn't have taken rolling my car a couple times to straingten out my priorities, but it did. I don't want you to make that mistake too PETER LEE In this era of daily organizers, of breakfast meetings and of cellular teleconferencing, we tend to lose sight of what's really important. The problem is that we forget about life's details. We subconsciously dismiss Andy Obermueller andyo@kansan.com them because we are so inundated with other things that seem more important. Bills loom overhead, and tests, and greenhouse emissions and then there's dinner and I forgot to change the lightbulb in the hallway, too. Next thing you know, you're sitting in your English class taking a final and can't remember anything because your mind is filled with the lyrics of the song you woke up to. You somehow remembered to write your name on the test, but you look at the date and realize you wrote down the PIN to your ATM card. With such overload, it's understandable — if not forgivable — that we forget to say thank you to the teller at the bank or to tell the lady who keeps the wooden floors so clean in the journalism school that you appreciate her. When I was in the hospital after my accident, I became annoyed at my communication-obsessed family for calling so frequently. It was during Thanksgiving and we had 30 people attending dinner, so broken neck or no broken neck, my mom had things to plan. But as I lay there in bed, in traction, in pain and worrying about whether I would ever use the bathroom on my own, I couldn't understand why people were calling about such relatively minor details as gravy. But as it turned, my priorities were backward: what I had thought was so important in my life really wasn't, and what I had dismissed as mere details turned out to be much more than that. The big picture — what I thought I was living for — isn't as important as the details that comprise it. I had been focusing on the results without giving any thought to the process. I needed a change in perspective. I'll never forget to be thankful for the life's little details: the warm way your jammies feel when you get up in the morning, the nuclear yellow explosions of forsythia by Potter's Lake during the Spring, the smell of Yello Sub, singing Handel's Hallelujah Chorus at full blast. Be so careful not to forget what I lost track of: Every day, be a little happier, a little kinder, a little more glad that you are here to celebrate this thing called life and this experience called living. And to be sure, I got one. The big picture — business deals, domestic policy, interest rates — these are certainly important endeavors that we need to live. But the details, the gravity, are what we should live for. About the details: Work hard to remember people's names. Ask about their day and listen to how they are doing. Make a friend lunch. Pick up the phone once for conversation, not just pizza. Feed the birds. Don't let the opportunity to pass to say something nicer than you normally might — I never told my old neighbor Tom Pryor just how much I thought of him, now I've moved away and lost the chance. Such sentiment only has meaning when it is shared with others, not when it hoarded for yourself. Focus on playing the game, not winning. When you start playing the game of life just to win, the game loses its inherent value. If you win, fine, but when you love playing the game, even when you lose you come away with something. Likewise, focus on living, not life. Life goes up and down, and by standard, only half of life can be above average. But if you focus on living, you will always have at least one thing to be thankful for you are alive. And for heaven's sake, wear your seat belt. Obermuelter is a Liberal, Kan., senior in journalism. Mmmm plop, holidays bring cheer and pounds I would have to say nothing makes me feel warmer inside than the holiday season, unless of course I accidentally set myself on fire. on fire. The holiday season refreshes my faith in humanity. Nothing says "Peace on Earth, Goodwill to Men" more than an 80-year-old grandmother giving you the finger while jockeying for a mall parking space. On the bright side, KU students aren't usually worried by crazy mall parking. They're actually pretty relieved to look around and say, "There are five spaces available, 中 Nick Bartkoski opinion@ kansan.com that has to be about five times the total number of parking spaces at the University." This is also the time of year for giving, sharing and generosity. And I don't think there exists a better example of this than the decorations on the Chancellor's house. Full of the spirit of sharing, the facilities operation crew decided to share the decorations with Miller Scholarship Hall — they shared the power cord with a wall socket. But in the spirit of the Secret Santa, they neglected to consult housing. It's this kind of selfless giving that really lights up the season, not to mention the trees in the Chancellor's yard. I also think this season is kind of thrilling. I look forward to the day when someone in my neighborhood will finally see "It's a Wonderful Life" one time too many and snap like cheap mistletoe. He'll probably end up running down the street yelling "Merry Christmas Quickie-Mart, Merry Christmas Liquor store." By the time KUPD shows up, his delirium will probably have them shouting "Merry Christmas police officer, Merry Christmas nightstick, Merry Christmas unconscious." I also love the high quality Christmas albums put out by bands that have almost used up their 15 minutes. My heartstrings are pulled every time I hear Hanson sing "Deck the halls with boughs of holly, mm mm mm mm mm, mm mm mm bop." And though the magic of New Kids on the Block may have faded, once a year everyone can be moved by their soulful melody on "This One's for the Children." I can only hope that by next year we can enjoy the Spice Girls' respectful version of "Silent Night." But as good as those respective artists are. I just can't get into them. It's only dogs barking "Jingle Bells" for me. Speaking of bands past their famous 15, I think Poison said it best: "Every rose has its thorn." The holiday season is no exception. As good as the holidays are, nothing hurts more than putting on the holiday pounds. Last year between Thanksgiving and New Year's, I gained roughly 240 pounds. I might have gained more, but I was working out at the time. I'd like to say it's just the extreme abundance of food that caused my minor weight increase. But I have to face facts, it's all due to my sick craving for pie. I've tried to combat it. I started attending Pie Eaters Anonymous meetings. They've got a 12-step program that will allow you to finally watch pie fight scenes in old movies without shedding a tear. I've even resorted to more drastic measures. I've baked four pies and put arsenic into one of them, hoping that it would prevent me from eating all four. But that plan ends the same way every time: me in the emergency room getting my stomach pumped screaming, "for the love of God, take the poison but leave the pie!!!" So it's not an easy dilemma. But maybe, if I've been really, really good, Santa Clause will give me the home liposuction kit I asked him for. All this holiday joy has me nearly ready to cry. It all reminds me of a famous poem: As you put down the paper, Please remember my kicker. Merry Christmas to all. Now where's my malt liquor. Bartkoski is a Basehor junior in journalism and English.

I am very grateful for all those who came to help and I appreciate everyone's effort in assisting to solve the problem.

Thompson dthompson@kansan.com Kansan staff writer Regardless of procrastinators' possible plots, no fire, bomb threat or chemical spill will stop a final exam. A University-wide plan tries to ensure that final exams are finished on schedule. The only circumstance that may postpone a final is weather conditions KU on Wheels buses are usually the measuring stick for calling snow days. If buses can't get up the hill, a snow day is called, but such weather probably won't cancel final examinations. that are so severe that it is unsafe for students to come to campus. "We would try to continue exams in bad weather if we could," said Provost David Shulenburger. Shulenburger said he wrote the memorandum as a reminder of the University's policy never to cancel or postpone an exam, final or not. Shulenburger issued a memorandum to vice chancellors, provosts, deans, directors and chairpersons last week and underscored part of the exam cancellation policy. "No final examination will be canceled or postponed to a later date because of a building evacuation," he said. If a building had to be evacuated, students would leave the building, and the faculty member would contact the police for an alternate location. The class then would proceed to that location and finish the exam. David Dinneen, professor and chairman of the French and Italian department, said it had been about eight or 10 years since an exam was moved or delayed because of a bomb threat. "There was a period when there were a number of problems," he said. "Now it's settled down." 944 Mass. 832-8228 One of the important goals, Shulenburger wrote, was that all exams were given on the day that they are scheduled. If exams must be delayed, finals would continue until all had been completed. "Under no circumstances will we cancel a final examination," he said. PATRICIA LARSON Some art with that?

Photo by Augustus Anthony Piazzo/KANSAN Despite noise, trafficway building permit extended By Ann Premer agreemer@kansan.com Kansas Staff Writer Douglas County will not lose its permit to build a section of the South Lawrence Trafficway at the end of this month. Last week, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers granted a one-year extension to the county for its wetland fill permit. The permit allows the county to construct a one-mile section of the trafficway that goes through the Baker Haskell wetlands south of 31st Street. Red Lyon Tavern "That has always been something we needed," said Commissioner Mark Buhler. The corps has asked the county to complete a noise-impact study for that section of the eastern leg to determine whether a sound wall or additional trees were needed to help block traffic noise. Native Americans who use the wetlands north of 31st Street for spiritual practices have said that the noise would be harmful to their practices. Buhler said the wetland fill permit was issued to the county approximately five years ago. The corps has been reviewing the permit for the past year and could revoke, renew or modify the permit. Attempts to reach the corps were unsuccessful. Judge Tom Van Bebber ordered that the county not spend money on the eastern leg of the trafficway until a supplemental environmental impact statement was completed. In the meantime, the county has asked Van Bebber for permission to complete the noise impact study, but the judge has not released a statement. The county, however, is unable to complete the noise impact study because of an injunction placed on the trafficway. This summer. U.S. District "We can't do it because we don't think we have the authority to do it." Buhler said about completing a noise impact statement. "We think if we went ahead and did it, we would probably get in trouble." Opponents of the South Lawrence Trafficway oppose allowing the county to complete a noise impact statement. Van Bebber's ruling is being appealed by the county and the Kansas Department of Transportation in the 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. "While it may not be a buldozer, it is still a step in the process that they would have to go through," said Jason Daniels, Colby junior. "We'll still have the same position not of letting the county spend any money on a noise study even though they got an extension." Daniels and other members of KU Environs, along with members of the Wetland Preservation Organization and Haskell Indian Nations University representatives, discussed their objections to the study Saturday at Haskell.

Stan Henry, general manager, sits at a table near the bar as a band begins to play its first song of the evening. Henry can bring many bands to the Hurricane thanks to tobacco company R. J. Reynolds. The Hurricane signed a deal this year with R. J. Reynolds to sell only Winston cigarettes behind the bar and to display Winston signs in the club. In return, Winston sponsors several live music shows and promotions at the club each year. Winston also gives the Hurricane a better cut from sales of Winston cigarettes than the club gets from sales of products in its cigarette machine. The Hurricane can sell competing products in the machine. Henry described the relation ship with Winston as positive. "It's a win-win situation for us," he said. There is nothing illegal about the Hurricane's relationship with Winston. Henry said rival tobacco company Philip Morris and its Marlboro brand also had targeted the Hurricane. Henry even went to Los Angeles as part of a Marlboro marketing think tank. But R. J. Reynolds eventually came to the club with a better financial offer, he said. He is frank about why these tobacco companies targeted the Hurricane. "We're their target market: young, outgoing people," he said. "People usually smoke when they drink, and everyone's over 21.' R. J. Reynolds recently reformulated Winston cigarettes and kicked off a new marketing campaign aimed at people in their 20s. "If you want a real good example of marketing from an older demographic to a newer one, I can't think of a better example than the Winston campaign," said Tim Swanson, a stock market analyst at A, G. Edwards and Sons. Inc. "We're a smoker's bar, so we offer a full line of cigars and cigarettes." Steve Torre sales manager, harry's bar and tables In the new ads, young smokers extol the virtues of new Winston's "100 percent pure" cigarettes. A "No Bull" tag line added to all the ads pushes Winston's image as straightforward and honest with smokers. Richard Polly, a professor of marketing at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver who follows trends in cigarette advertising, said Winston's packaging had been redesigned to promote a positive message about smoking Winston cigarettes. Rather than displaying the full brand name on the pack, all that is shown is the word "Win." R. J. Reynolds has been making deals with clubs in large, urban markets for the past year, usually through its Red Kamel brand of cigarettes. comment on R. J. Reynolds' marketing practices. R. J. Reynolds and the marketing firm it employs would not discuss marketing cigarettes in clubs. Liz Williams in KBA Marketing's Chicago office declined Carole Crosslin, a public relations representative at R.J. Reynolds, also declined comment. Other clubs in Westport have marketing agreements with tobacco companies. Bars in the area heavily promote Philip Morris' Marlboro brand. Marlboro places an advertisement in the "Pitch Weekly" newspaper that promotes 24 clubs and restaurants in Kansas City, five of which are in Westport. One of those clubs is Stanford and Sons restaurant, which features neon Marlboro signs, Marlboro ashtrays, Marlboro cocktail napkins and Marlboro napkin holders. Stanford and Sons general manager Larry Nichols, who smokes Marlboro Light cigarettes, said the club did not have an exclusivity contract with Marlboro. "We don't even have to carry their product," Nichols said. Westport bars and restaurants are signing sponsorship deals with major tobacco companies, bringing many bands to the Kansas City area. The Hurricane, a club in Westport, signed a deal with R.J. Reynolds tobacco company to sell only Winston cigarettes behind the bar. Photo Illustration by Augustus Anthony Piazza/KANSAN However, the club displays Marlboro signs, uses Marlboro-embossed products and lets Marlboro conduct promotional giveaways of Marlboro products such as duffel bags a few times a year in the club, he said. This is in exchange for Marlboro's sponsorship of events at the club. Winchester Across the street at Harry's bar and Tables, the Marlboro presence is less noticeable, although Marlboro advertises in this bar as well. Steve Torre, the bar's sales manager, said the bar received some ashtrays from Marlboro but nothing else. "What they want you to do is put up the signs and use the napkins for as long as the contract runs," Torre said. He said Harry's did not like to advertise one particular product. "We're a smoker's bar, so we offer a full line of cigars and cigarettes." Torre said. However, Harry's is such a trendy place — so popular that it does not hang a storefront sign — that even a limited association is enough for Marlboro. Harry's gets free advertising in "Pitch Weekly" in return from Marlboro. Despite the promotional deals in Kansas City, tobacco companies have not targeted Lawrence clubs. Dannie Thompson, owner of Bleachers, said that no one had approached him about a marketing deal. Dean Ayoob, manager of the Wagon Wheel Cafe, 507 W. 14th St., said a Marlboro representative had questioned recently him about sales in the bar's cigarette-vending machine. Managers of the Granada and the Bottleneck said tobacco marketers had not approached them. Bottleneck, 737 New Hampshire St., said Kool cigarettes had conducted a giveaway in the bar last spring but that it had been an isolated event. Page Tullos, manager of the Granada, 1020 Massachusetts St., said four people had come to the club once and claimed they were from one of the cigarette companies. The Granada sells several cigarette brands in its vending machine and at the bar. Tullos said the Granada would consider a deal with one brand if they received something for the bar. "They said they were investigating clubs for giveaways," Tullos said. "If it's going to make Granada a better place for our customers, it might be worth participating," she said. Doug Schulte, manager of the Recruiters jump starting sorority that folded in 1992 By Sarah McWilliams smcwilliams@kansan.com Kansan staff writer Efforts to restart a KU chapter of Sigma Gamma Rho sorority are generating interest, a sorority member at Kansas State University said. Stacy Yeager, a senior at K-State, started recruiting at the beginning of this semester. She said the chapter may start next semester at the University of Kansas. Yeager said since the beginning of this semester, she had identified two prospective members for the sorority. Yeager also is considering coming to the University as a graduate student next year. Chris Simkulet, Port Crane, N.Y., junior, attended one of the informational meetings Yeager presented at the University this semester. She said she liked the sisterhood in the sorority and was considering joining the organization next semester. "At the same time you could be a sister, you could be yourself," she said. The KU chapter of Sigma Gamma Rho, a historically Black sorority, became inactive in 1992 when all of its members graduated. Yeager said she thought the new chapter could contribute to sorority life at the University. In order to restart the chapter, the sorority needs either one current member to transfer from another university or five new members, Yeager said. Yeager and fellow member Kelli Moore, a junior at K-State, are recruiting at campuses across Kansas. The two want to start chapters at Baker University, Emporia State University and Fort Hays State University. Moore said she wanted to spread the word about the sorority because it had contributed to her education. "I've made a lot of friends, it's helped me with my grades and with making goals for myself," Moore said. Shop the Classifieds to save money! --offer good thru Dec.

CINEMAS THE LIEB CENTER STUDENT SENATE 7 p.m. C Monday, December 8, 1997 The University Daily Kansan Section A · Page 7 - Dancing to the beat of a different drummer Department wants to snare new teacher By Coryanne Graham Special to the Kansan Percussion students at the University of Kansas might be playing solo next semester. For the first time in almost three decades, the University's only percussion instructor will take a sabbatical during the Spring 1998 semester. Although students already have enrolled in percussion lessons and percussion ensemble for next semester, replacement instructors have not been chosen. "I know there are some people who need the requirement, and they are worried about not having a teacher," said Carl Nelson, graduate student in percussion performance. George Boberg, professor of percussion, will be building a repertoire for percussion instruments from wind-ensemble and concertband literature next semester. He will not teach classes even though he will continue to live in Lawrence. Nelson, the only graduate student in percussion performance, will teach Percussion Media, an introductory class. The percussion ensemble tentatively has been canceled for next semester. Boberg said percussion lessons would be offered for students who need the lessons to meet graduation requirements. But he doesn't know who will teach them. Bob Little, Ottawa junior, needs eight semesters of percussion lessons to graduate with a music education degree. He said he was worried but understood it was the University's responsibility to find an instructor during Boberg's sabbatical. To apply for sabbatical, KU professors submit a grant application users submit a grant application If a faculty member takes a sabbatical for one semester, he or she retains 100 percent of that semester's salary. If a professor wants to take a yearlong sabbatical, he or she will receive half of that year's salary. The department is required to find a replacement teacher without the use of extra funds. Stephen Anderson, chairman of the Music and Dance department, said a conservative way to solve the problem of finding a replacement would be to reject the grant application, but he didn't think that would be the right thing to do. by the fall preceding the academic year in which the professor wants to take the sabbatical. The application must be approved by a University committee and sometimes a department or school committee. 1. Professors at the University can apply for a yearlong or semester-long sabbatical every seven years. Next semester will be the first time Boberg has taken the paid leave of absence to do research. A yearlong sabbatical leaves the department the remaining half of the professor's salary, which can be used as payment for a replacement teacher. Anderson said professors usually took semester-long sabbaticals, leaving none of the professor's salary for a replacement instructor. With no funding for a replacement teacher, choices are limited to graduate students and other professors at the University. But graduate students are not permitted to teach lessons at the college level, and many of the professors at the University have limited knowledge of percussion. Nelson said if funding was available, he thought it would be nice if a member of the Kansas City Symphony could teach in Boberg's place. "There is no way we could put someone unqualified in this position," Anderson said. A real bird-brained idea The Associated Press CHICAGO — Polly want an education? Bird brains are different than those of advanced mammals, catching the interest of neurologists, psychologists and others. Maybe Polly doesn't need one. New research seems to indicate that parrots, like chimps and dolphins, are capable of mastering complex intellectual concepts that children cannot grasp until age 5. Irene Pepperberg is an ecologist and evolutionary biologist who studies parrots at the University of Arizona in Tucson. She has focused her studies on a parrot she bought at a Chicago pet store in 1977. Pet experts meeting in Chicago today for the American Veterinary Association's annual animal welfare forum think the parrot's intelligence is why the popularity of the bird has grown faster than any other pet during the past decade. That bird, Alex, can name 50 objects when shown them, recognizes colors, knows numbers up to eight and understands the concepts of same and different. "All of the tests we've done with dolphins and great apes to investigate their intelligence, we've done with Alex," Pepperbell said. "He scored as well as they did in many of them, better in some." But intelligence may not always Quiz yourself Dailey to offer sexuality class off campus in the spring True or False? 1. Recent studies have found that parrots can understand complex ideas. 2. Many people keep parrots as pets because the birds grow faster than most other animals For those who have not had time for human sexuality during the fall semester, there is hope for the spring. By Anna Attkisson Special to the Kansan 3. Pepperberg taught her bira to say the names of objects and to recognize colors. 4. The brainy bird has learned to act just like a great ape. 5. Pepperberg's educated pet scraped as well as or better than chimps on intelligence tests. Enrollment is open for Dennis Dailey's class, Human Sexuality in Everyday Life, which will hold at the Ecumenical Christian Ministries building, 1204 Oread Ave., next semester. BONUS: In order to earn a parrot's love, it is necessary to teach the bird how to speak and count. Experts say parrots are domineering and sometimes difficult to understand. Although the bird can live up to 80 years, many people give up these pets after the first five years. Liz Wilson, a parrot behavior consultant from Philadelphia, said she's heard of cases where people come home feeling blue and their parrot asks them outright, "Is something wrong?" "This class is designed as a condensed version of the class I teach in the fall semester," said Dailev, pro- Answer Key: "You have to earn their love. I like that," she said. equal a good pet. PETER B. CROSSON fessor of social welfare. "This is a special opportunity for students to examine issues of sexuality." Dailey said the class was an alternative for KU Dailey: Will teach condensed version of fall class who might be interested in the class but have not been able to fit it into their schedule. The class, offered Thursdays from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. beginning Jan. 15, is not for credit. Dailey said no mandatory tests or assignments would be given. "If people want to do the reading, they can. Some people even take this class after they take the one for credit," said Thad Holcombe, director of campus ministries at ECM. Enrollment is unlimited and open to the community. The class costs $30 for KU students and $40 for nonstudents. In past sessions, students' ages have ranged from 17 to 72 years old. "We don't really limit the students," Holcombe said. "We usually run 90 to 100 people. It is a good mix of international and regular students and is open to all religions." During the 10 sessions, students watch films and discuss topics related to human sexuality. "Students in the 10 classes get exposed to a little less than half of what is covered in the regular class," Dailey said. "We see a fair number of films. We cover physiology, anatomy and masturbation." The class is sponsored by ECM, Lutheran Campus Ministries and the Canterbury House. But Dailey said the sponsorship did not influence the class content. "The ECM is deeply committed to providing classes for students, and one area of concern is human sexuality." Dailey said.

A small, bearded man answers Thoman's knock. As he walks inside, Thoman draws a wallet-size instrument from his pocket and raises it to the man's mouth. The instrument is a breathalyzer, and the man is a convicted criminal sentenced to intensive, supervised probation in the Douglas County Community Corrections program. More than 200 county residents are clients of community corrections. They live at home and are closely monitored by probation and surveillance officers. They submit to random drug testing and frequent blood-alcohol testing. Some are under house arrest, which permits them to leave home only for work or school. Most clients are nonviolent felons, but some have been convicted of many misdemeanors. Many have failed unsupervised probation. About 10 of 10 have drug or alcohol problems. The oldest client in Douglas County is 76 years old. The youngest is 11. just to send you to jail, but they will if they catch you breaking the the motivator, and they are the pressure you need to get your- To complete the program, clients must live within the law, keep a job or stay in school, and avoid drugs and alcohol. If they can do that and abide by community correction rules for at least 24 months, they're free. If they fail, they go to prison. as an inexpensive alternative to incarceration clients out of prison. Ian Hamilton, Paola senior, was sentenced to community corrections his freshman year at the University. He was caught selling marijuana in his hometown and had several previous convictions. He could have gone to prison, and his intensive supervised probation officer served as a constant reminder of that possibility. over your shoulder all the time." ing, and we've got to do whatever we can to help them do this. Hamilton said, "I had some authority problems, and maybe I still do. But the program taught me I could be an individual and play by the rules, which is better than rejecting the rules and having somebody looking Community corrections officers play a variety of roles. They provide support, encouragement, drug testing and lectures about the possibility of going to prison. Clients may be referred to a variety of services to treat deviant behavior, including group and individual counseling for substance abuse and anger control. All clients see a resource specialist to get and keep a job. The idea is to get involved in clients' lives, to find out what problems they have and to get them the help they need, said Pam Weigand, interim community corrections director. Those issues historically have baffled corrections systems, but Thoman said that community corrections tried to take them head-on. Weigand said the program uses the community as a rehabilitative tool. "They're pretty good about using judgment — looking at your personality and your flaws," Hamilton said. "I went to Ireland with my grandma even though I wasn't supposed to leave the country. They took it easy on me because they knew it was just a trip with my grandma." Drop-in visits give officers an inside view of the client's personal life. Thoman's visits can include urine tests, interrogations or personal searches. He recognizes that some clients find it intrusive, but it's part of the package. "If they know we're watching, it can deter a lot of behavior that gets them in trouble." Thomas said. "But if we're going to save someone, we've got to get in there to see what problems they're got and what issues are behind those problems." Thoman said most problems he had seen resulted from underlying issues, such as an unstable home life or a feeling of worthlessness. Hampton was able to complete the 24-month program in 18 months, unlike most participants. More than half of the clients fail to complete the program, said Deborah Wright, intensive supervised probation officer. when a client repeatedly fails to respond, an officer starts the revocation process, which ends in incarceration, she said. "We're going to exhaust all our resources before we revoke anybody's probation." Wright said. "If they don't make it, it's usually because they don't want to make it. It's The program gives officers wide discretion to create rules and to impose sanctions. The program imposes its own rules through probation conditions. Those conditions, which require a judge's approval, are determined by a community corrections officer after an evaluation of the client's needs. Officers establish a curfew and dictate when and how often a client reports to community corrections. Offenders also must avoid drugs and alcohol and work or attend school. Further conditions are determined by individual needs and circumstances. "Prison removes and isolates an individual from the community," she said. "We're about keeping them in the community — using the community to give them a sense that they belong. And they can make it if they learn to live by society's rules and expectations." "It's better than prison. That's what you keep telling yourself. It's no fun. It sucks. But it's better than prison." Ian Hamilton paola senior hard to rehabilitate someone who doesn't want to be rehabilitated." Whether clients successfully complete the program, all get the chance to rehabilitate themselves within the community. Douglas County District Court Judge Robert Fairchild likes that idea. "There's an argument, at least, that early offenders will be exposed to crime as a lifestyle in prison," he said. "Community corrections is a great intermediate sanction for those people who pose a risk to the community but aren't going to gain anything from prison." The program also has saved state money by keeping people out of prison. That success has not gone unnoticed by the Legislature. Ron E. McKayne, B Ditchney Jr. The program also has saved state money by keeping people Ed McKehnie, D-Pittsburg, said the program makes sense. "It makes no sense to spend $18,000 a year locking someone up when we can put them in a program that costs $8,000 a year and puts them in the community, earning money, learning the responsibility of living and working in society," said McKechnie, who is a member of the Joint Committee on Corrections and Juvenile Justice. Hamilton agrees. "It's better than prison," he said. "That's what you keep telling yourself. It's no fun. It sucks. But it's better than prison." Illustration by Mitch Lucas Famous DJs to spin music light up stage at SUA party By Corrie Moore cmoore@kansan.com Kansan staff writer Student Union Activities is celebrating the end of the semester with a techno party tonight from 9 p.m. to 2 a.m. in the Kansas Union Ballroom. Disc Jockeys Ray Velasquez, host of KLZR's "Nocturnal Transmission," Lost Boy, from Dallas, and Monk of Rabbit in the Moon all will be spinning their music. The show is open to the public, but KU students get a discount. Prices are $8 for students and $11 for non-students. SUA ordered 900 tickets, which can be purchased at the SUA box office. This is the first time SUA has sponsored a techno show. SUA spent between $6,000 and $7,000. John Orcutt, Hutchinson senior and SUA live music coordinator, said there had been a lot of raves in the Topeka and Kansas City areas. "It's just something that's starting to become extremely popular," he said. He said the techno show would resemble a rave but that it would not last all night long. The lighting for the show will be done by a New Orleans group called Crescent City Sound and Lights. The company was requested by DJ Lost Boy, who has worked with it in the past. The company comes equipped with strobe and laser lights. They also will set up intelligent lights, which have moving images and move with the rhythm of the music. Orcutt said SUA wanted to include Velasquez because he is the top DJ in the area. The other two DJs are nationally known. "Students who enjoy music will enjoy this, and students who enjoy dancing will enjoy this," Velasquez said. Velasquez's "Nocturnal Transmission" is a techno show that has aired on 105.9 the Lazer for more than four years. The show runs Sunday nights from 11 p.m. to 1 a.m. Orcutt said Velasquez helped the SUA live music committee get ideas about whom to hire. Monk, who is from Tampa, Fla., will be the headliner. He usually performs with a keyboard player, but tonight, he will be performing solo. His group was featured in a four-page spread in the latest edition of "Spin" magazine. Orcutt said he hoped that last minute finals and projects would not keep students from attending. "Hopefully a lot of people will be able to come out and enjoy the whole thing," he said. He said that if the show goes well, SUA will have another techno party next semester. Originality of 'Amistad' in question, litigation Spielberg movie faces scrutiny from award-winning novelist Bv JOHN HORN AP Entertainment Writer LOS ANGELES (AP) — The premiere of Steven Spielberg's historical slave ship epic "Amistad" is competing for attention with another drama opening this week: a courtroom confrontation that has turned personal and vitriolic. The director's new DreamWorks studio is accused of stealing the story for the movie that Spielberg calls "perhaps the most important of my career." In turn, DreamWorks is attacking the integrity of the award-winning novelist who filed the lawsuit. Barbara Chase-Riboud. Lawyers on both sides say U.S. District Judge Audrey Collins is unlikely to stop the debut in New York and Los Angeles. A preliminary showing was Friday in New Haven, Conn., where much of the original story unfolded more than 150 years ago. President Clinton saw "Amistad" Thursday in Washington, and showings are set for Tuesday in Rhode Island, where parts of the movie were filmed. whether she should block Wednesday's release of the film about slaves who revolted at sea aboard a Cuban ship and won their freedom in pre-Civil War U.S. courts. A judge is to hear arguments today on Studio attorneys say Chase-Riboud is using the movie's imminent opening to pressure DreamWorks into a $5 million settlement. The fledgling studio says it has invested $70 million producing and marketing "Amstad." Millions of dollars could be at stake in the litigation. operated "Amistad" premiered in late November in Chicago, telling the story from the viewpoint of myth and African religion. And writer David Pesci's novel by the same name was published last spring. The movie isn't the only art form bringing the once little-known event to life. An Chase-Riboud claims DreamWorks based much of "Amistad" on her 1989 book "Echo of Lions" without her permission. "What an irony that the renowned filmmaker who produced and directed "The Color Purple' would be a party to denying a prominent Black American of letters and the arts her rightful recognition for raising public consciousness about slavery," Chase-Riboud's attorneys said in court papers. While historical events cannot be copyrighted, Chase-Riboud maintains Dream-Works illegally copied "themes, dialogue, characters, relationships, plots, scenes and fictional inventions" she created in "Echo of Lions." John Shaefffer, a lawyer for Chase-Riboud, said Franzoni may be lying, that he may have read "Echo of Lions" but not "Black Mutiny." DreamWorks insists its movie is an original blend of history and the book "Black Actress-choreographer Debbie Allen, "Amistad's" producer, said she had begun working on the film before "Echo of Lions" was even published, and the film's credited screenwriter, David Franzoni, swears he never read Chase-Riboud's book. DreamWorks' lawyers allege that Chase Riboud herself is a plagiarist, arguing there are at least 88 similarities between her "Echo of Lions" and the earlier "Black Mutiny." DreamWorks attorneys also are circulating a passage from Chase-Riboud's 1994 book "The President's Daughter" that appears almost verbatim in Nella Larsen's 1929 book "Passing." Chase-Riboud said she did not plagiarize Mutiny," first published 36 years before "Echo of Lions" and whose rights are owned by DreamWorks. As for the money issue, the $5 million figure was merely a "starting ... initial bid" for settlement, her lawyers say. "Black Mutiny" and that any similarities are merely historical facts. Shaheer said the allegedly plagiarized "President's Daughter" passage "looks like it came from a historical source." The dispute cuts close to home for Spielberg. "No one likes to be called a thief," said Bert Fields, a lawyer for DreamWorks. "This is a very important film for Steven. He has African-American kids he has adopted." Spielberg and wife Kate Capshaw have two adopted Black children in addition to their toddler daughter and two children each from their previous marriages. In court papers, Spielberg said: "I felt it was an extremely important film to do and I particularly wanted to do it for my children." Fields said he did not know if Spielberg would attend Monday's hearing.

Photo By Steve Puppe/KANSAN By Kristie Blasi Kansan sports editor WASHINGTON — In the nation's capital, the No. 2 Kansas Jayhawks could not overcome their largest deficit of the season any better than Congress on Capitol Hill can reduce the national deficit. No. 23 Maryland, 4-2, outlasted a second-half surge by the Jayhawks, who lost yesterday 83-86 for the first time this season in the first round of the Franklin National Bank Classic. The defending-champion Terrapins built a 13-point lead in the first half and extended it to 15 in the second half. The first was a 28-20 gap against Florida State in the semifinals of the Preseason NIT. Kansas committed 16 turnovers in the first half — 12 of them steals by Maryland — which led to the Jayhawks' second halftime deficit of the season. "We flat-out turned the ball over too much," said guard Ryan Robertson. "It was more or less us not being ready to play. We just didn't play very well." Kansas recovered after the intermission with five straight points after Maryland scored on its opening possession. The Jayhawks cut the lead to four on a basket by forward Raef LaFrentz, who scored 26 points and grabbed 16 rebounds. "We showed a lot of poise and character in the second half," LaFrentz said. "It was anybody's ball game with two minutes to play." Kansas tied the game at 79 with two minutes to play when forward Paul Pierce rebounded a LaFrentz miss and scored. After Maryland missed two free throws, LaFrentz was called for a foul. Fourteen seconds later, Pierce was called for his fifth foul. He and LaFrentz led all scorers with 26 points. Maryland made all four free throws that resulted from those two plays and led 83-79. A basket by guard Kenny Gregory pulled Kansas within two points with 26 seconds to play. The Jayhawks regained possession trailing 84-81 with 19 seconds to play after a Maryland turnover. with 19 seconds to play after a Maryland turnover. LaFrentz scored after a missed three-pointer by Robertson, and Maryland led by one with 3.8 seconds remaining.

There is a difference in the sports." Story by Kelly Cannon Illustrations by Mitch Lucas Bob Miller freshman football coach emporia high school More high school students are shunning football and choosing to play soccer. This creates problems for college recruiting and threatens high school football programs. It has left many wondering why there is a For football coaches across the nation, their fastest growing headaches aren't from difficult schedules, injuries, recruiting problems or NCAA sanctions. It's soccer, the fastest growing sport in the United States, and the biggest sport in the world. Soccer, Kansas football coach Terry Allen says, is a national problem for football. Both high school soccer and football are played in the fall, forcing students to choose between the two. And increasingly, coaches say, students are choosing soccer. Allen says the state and nation are experiencing a decrease in the number of high school students playing football. Others argue that football numbers haven't taken a nose dive yet. But soccer is beginning to cool the gridiron. Craze "I see it as a potential threat to football as we know it." Allen says. Soccer surges David Cherry, assistant executive director of Kansas State High School Activities Association (KSH "This generation is one that is growing up with soccer and wants to continue it at the high school level," he said. Don Sparka, assistant director for the National Federation of High School Associations, agreed soccer was growing from the top down and bottom up. "There has been an explosion in youth soccer, and as those kids become high school kids, their parents begin to insist that those programs be added." Sparks said. Interest in World Cup soccer and the recent success of the U.S. men's and women's national teams have contributed to the sport's popularity. Cherry said KHSAA wanted to capitalize on that popularity and add a state soccer championship for smaller high schools. The present state tournament is in its 12th year. Schools classified as 6A have their own tournament, and 5A through 1A have a separate tournament. "There could be a six, a five and a four-three-two-one championship," he said. Sixty-nine schools in Kansas have soccer programs sanctioned by KSHSAA. Approximately 15 of those began in the last four years. Reason to worry So far, soccer's popularity hasn't inflicted major damage to football numbers in Kansas. But what will happen in three or four years when the legions of children playing soccer enter high school? Will football's numbers drop dramatically? At several Kansas high schools, soccer already is knocking down football numbers. At Emporia High School, freshman football numbers are down this year, said Bob Miller, freshman football coach. "We have 23 kids out this year," Miller said. "I've been here 13 years and we've had anywhere from 50 to 25 kids try out. But yeah, it's down a little." Soccer is a more appealing sport, he said. "Soccer is easier," Miller said. "If you had the choice of going out in August and putting on a helmet, pads and practicing in the heat two times a day or putting on shorts, it's easier equipmentwise. There is a difference in the sports."

Kansas makes clean sweep of Dial Classic tournament By Penny Walker sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter "It was a great win for us," said coach Marian Washington The Kansas women's basketball team gave Grambling State a final sudsing in the championship round of the Dial Soap Classic yesterday and won 68-51. The Jayhawks also scored 100 points for the first time since Dec. 10, 1994, when they defeated Creighton 101-84. Forward Lynn Pride had a career-high 24 points, and guard Shandy Robbins scored a career-high 18 points. The Jayhawks had a weekend of great wins. They defeated Coppin State Saturday 100-57, tied team records for assists and three-point shots and set career-highs for individual players. Washington: Pleased with her team's performance Grambling State defeated Southern California Saturday and advanced to the championship round against Kansas. Kansas took the tip-off against Grambling In the second half, Grambling State matched Kansas nearly point-for-point but never recovered from its first-half State, and center Nakia Sanford scored two points in the first 14 seconds. The Jayhawks kept Grambling State to less than 10 points in 15 minutes until the Lady Tigers scored nine points, bringing the score to 33-18 at halftime.

Guard Casey Pruitt also played 20 minutes this weekend, scoring her first six points for the Javahinks. "It was a fun tournament because we got everybody to play." Raymant said. Washington said she was pleased with the team's performance in the tournament. "We are playing overall with great enthusiasm," Washington said. "I think our intensity level overall is very good. We can build on that, no question about it. "We're a step up from where we were," she said. "I think that we're shooting the ball a lot better. We're still struggling from the free throw line, but I think from the field we're doing a pretty good job." One area that didn't please Washington, however, was rebounding. Raymant agreed. "It's obvious our rebounding is hurting us," Rayman said. "A lot of times we're caught standing, just watching the ball instead of boxing out and going after it." WOMEN'S GAME NOTES The team scored 100 points or more for the first time since December 1994. Kansas Guard Suzi Raymant scored a total of 40 points in the two games played and was named the tournament MVP.

S. Soccer and NIKE, Inc. recently signed a contract to help assure the growth of soccer at all levels in the United States. The 10-year agreement calls for NIKE and U.S. Soccer to work US SOCCER together on a variety of fronts through 2006, during which time NIKE will be the exclusive official supplier and sponsor of products to U.S. Soccer and its national teams, and the Federation's supplier and sponsor of soccer balls. Terms of the contract were not disclosed. NIKE recently elevated soccer to 'core sport' status alongside basketball and running," said Tom Clarke, Nike's president and chief operating officer. As part of the contract NIKE will also become the title sponsor of the annual U.S. Cup series, which has brought some of the world's finest men's teams to the United States since 1992, and to the U.S. Women's Cup tournament, established in 1995. In addition, NIKE agreed to sponsor four women's team tours in support of the American women's efforts at the 1999 FIFA Women's World Cup, which will be held in the United States, and the Sydney 2000 Olympic Games. Six months ago U.S. Soccer unveiled a plan, entitled Project 2010. The foundation of the program is a commitment to player development, enhancement of the image of soccer in the United States, and investment in the game's infrastructure. Broadening the scope of the agreement, NIKE also pledged financial support to the Federation's Project 40 program. The initiative is designed to accelerate the development of highly talented young players who can benefit from professional-style training and prove educational stipends so players can enter or return to college when their playing days are over. Project 40 will help U.S. Soccer and MLS provide player compensation as well as equipment for the athletes. The United States Soccer Federation, or U.S. Soccer, is the national governing body for soccer in the United States. With headquarters in Chicago, U.S. Soccer is the host federation for the 1999 FIFA Women's World Cup, was the host for the 1996 Atlanta Olympic Soccer Tournament, and served as the host federation for the 1994 FIFA World Cup. Football being tackled by soccer Continued from page 1B Emporia High School didn't have a soccer program until the early 1990s. Before that, male athletes played football or ran cross country. Now, the competing sports spread athlete thin. Miller said. Emporia soccer coach Duane Desmarteau said soccer numbers were rising and making a visible impact on football. "Numbers have risen tremendously," Desmarteau said. "Now students have to make a choice. Our numbers are comparable to football, and in a lot of cases we have more." Soccer club teams in Emporia might be responsible. Miller said. "If you play soccer from the time you're six, and your high school coach coaches you year round, well, football coaches don't have that," Miller said. Johnson County schools are also experiencing the soccer squeeze. At Olathe East High School, both soccer and football are strong, said Ryan Ralston. Olathe East athletic director. But, Ralston added, if Olathe East didn't have soccer, more kids would probably try out for football. Ralston said soccer numbers were growing, and even though there weren't as many students out for soccer as for football the gap narrowed every year. In the past, Olathe East has fielded enough students to have three soccer teams, but interest was so great this year that four teams were formed, Ralston said. Football cries for help Concerned soccer moms also are spurring the sport's growth. Kansas football coach Terry Allen said he thought many parents put their children in soccer because they thought there was less of an injury risk compared to football. "The reality of the situation is that soccer is one of the most dangerous sports out there from an injury perspective," Allen said. For the most part, Allen is correct, according to the 1997-98 NCAA Sports Medicine Handbook. Soccer ranks higher than football in practice and game injury rates. Football, however, ranks higher in severity of injury and injuries requiring surgery. Andrew Rohrback / KANSAN Allen offered suggestions to solve the soccer-football conflict. "Move soccer to the spring like they did in Iowa so kids can play both football and soccer." Allen said. Coaches also need to actively promote football and encourage students to play, he said. Allen has a large stake in resolving the conflict. His recruiting depends on it. Thirty-six players on the Kansas football team are from Kansas, or 33 percent of the team. But only four of Kansas' 21 newcomers this season are from Kansas. Kansas athletes Recruiting in Kansas is already a tight game, Allen said. Because of competition between Kansas and Kansas State, the state of Kansas probably could never field two top 10 teams, like Florida does, Allen said. Kansas state figures on high school players (in thousands) in soccer and 11-man football: The established sport Football Soccer '92 '93 '94 '95 '96 '97 But not everyone has written football off for dead. Rick Bowden, assistant executive director of KSHSAA, said football was an established sport in Kansas. "It's an unfair comparison," Bowden said. "Football will do no more growing. It's already a big kid." Nationally, Sparks said he saw no evidence that soccer's popularity hurt football. "Football is just as healthy," Sparksa said. "It takes a different athlete. Soccer might hurt a football program at a small school." But Bowden said most schools, when faced with cutting athletic programs, fought to keep football. Youth leagues, similar to their soccer cousins, are sprouting up in cities across Kansas. In Emporia, a youth football league was created to meet parent and child demands, despite a strong youth soccer league already in existence, said Miller. "Seldom do you ever see a school dropping the program," he said. "Even small schools are trying to hang on. Football is the last program to go." Targeting youth And football supporters aren't waiting around to see what will happen. They're fighting back. Emporia freshman football coach. "We have started a little kids football league, and it seems to be successful." Miller said Miller said the league was increasing interest in football. Filling the stands Meanwhile, soccer games in Emporia have become big events. Desmarteau said that between 2,000 and 3,000 fans attended each game, most of them young. Sure, the football stadium still draws a larger crowd, but Desmarteau said most football fans were older adults — people who grew up with football as a major sport. "A lot of people still go to football games," Desmarteau said. "But student bodywise, we have more fans than football." One day those soccer fans will grow up. And that's what worries football coaches.

Continued from page 1B Maryland guard Terrell Stokes caught the inbound pass and then leaned on the press table, which is out of bounds. An official across the court called a foul on Robertson as the official nearest the play indicated possession for Kansas. coach Roy Williams. "That was not what lost us the basketball game. I've had the opportunity to see the replay, and they probably wouldn't make that call, but they don't have that luxury. "I would take that officiating crew right now," said Kansas Stokes converted both free throws, and Kansas trailed by three with 1.8 seconds to play. ranked by three with 12 seconds to play. LaFrentz threw the ball to guard Billy Thomas, whose shot from 35 feet bounced off the right side of the rim as time expired. "You don't have a lot of options down three with 1.8 seconds to play," Williams said. "To tell you the truth, I was ecstatic with the shot we got." The Jayhawks were not ecstatic with the loss. It was the first time in Williams' career at Kansas that the Jayhawks have failed to make it to the championship game of a holiday tournament. Kansas will play Pennsylvania, 3-3, at 5 p.m. today in the consolation game. The Quakers lost to George Washington 62-66 in the other first round game. "Tomorrow you wipe the slate clean and do things aggressively," Robertson said. "It was just a bad day."

STUDENT SENATE 1 Section B · Page 4 The University Daily Kansan Monday, December 8, 1997 The Phog lifts, and few people are there Women's basketball draws small crowd By Penny Walker sports@kansan.com Kansan writer The Kansas women's basketball team scored a season-high 100 points Saturday against Coppin State, but the number of spectators hasn't undergone a similar increase. The total attendance at Saturday's game was 662. Yesterday's championship game between Kansas and Grambling State drew 707 people to the field house, which seats 16,300. The spectators, few as they were, were treated to quite a tournament. The timeout and halftime activities reflected the fact that many of those watching in the field house were children. The cheer squads brought kids out from the audience to dance the Hokey-Pokey and to form limbo lines. Coach Marian Washington said she didn't want to make it any one group's responsibility to support the team, but she stressed that women's athletics needed the backing of a certain sex. "We need support from everyone," Washington said. "But we especially need support from women." Among the children in the stands was Jessie Shelman from Blue Springs, Mo. She turned 11 on Saturday, and in lieu of a birthday party, her parents took her and five friends to the Dial Soap Classic. "Instead of a party at Discovery Zone, she wanted a party at KU," said Jessie's mom, Janet Shelman. The Shelman party had come for both games Saturday and got to see the crowds swell a bit when the Kansas-Coppin State game began. "It started to get cold when the KU game started because the doors were opening more," Janet said. Still, she said the crowds were small. She has reason to be concerned about fan support — her daughter, Jessie, plans to play point guard for Kansas someday. Jessie's favorite KU player is Raef LaFrentz, but last year Tamecka Dixon was a role model for her because Dixon wasn't that tall but was still successful in basketball. "We need support from everyone." Marian Washington kansas basketball coach "She'd say to me, 'Look, Mom, if Tamecka can do it, I can do it," Janet said. Perhaps by the time Jessie dons a Kansas uniform, the crowds at Kansas women's basketball games will be larger. Some people associated with the women's basketball program think action must be taken today for the sake of women's athletics in the future. "We could bring about so much change if we just supported each other," Washington said.

Alliance makes for bad business decisions I know I have voiced my displeasure I know I have voiced my displeasure with the landscape of collegiate and professional sports throughout the semester, but I would like to do so just one more time. The college football Alliance will provide some entertaining match-ups during the winter break, but better games will not be played because of the money behind the Alliance and its bowls. No. 5 UCLA arguably is playing the best football in the country, but the Bruins were passed up by the Alliance in favor of No. 9 Ohio State and No. 10 Kansas State. UCLA and No. 7 North Carolina were bypassed by the Alliance, which means they face a $7 million drop in bowl revenue. With help from the Alliance, college football programs have earned more money than at any time in history. But that forces business decisions in selecting which teams deserve $8 million from the Alliance as compared to $1 million elsewhere. shunned? Why were UCLA and North Carolina Ohio State has had a strong support N. M. E. C. Tommy Gallagher sports@kansan.com group attend bowl games throughout the years. The Wildcats brought 40,000 fans to the Cotton Bowl last season and could draw similar numbers again. Fans bring money, and money drives bowl games. Anyone who believes the Alliance is concerned about the best possible game is naive. Otherwise, we would see UCLA and No. 3 Florida State play in an Alliance game. Instead, we have to be content with a Fiesta Bowl featuring K-State and No. 14 Syracuse, and a Cotton Bowl blowout between No. 20 Texas A&M and UCLA. Next season, the Alliance will pair the top two teams in the country for a true national championship game. But what match-ups are forged after that is where my concerns rest. Sadly, college football has transformed from a game into a big business. ■ Insubordination has never been a gray issue. But San Francisco mayor Willie Brown said in the "San Francisco Examiner" that perhaps Golden State Warriors guard Latrell Sprewell should be considered a victim. Sprewell assaulted his coach, P.J. Carlesimo, last week. "Maybe the coach deserved a choking," Brown said. Sprewell does not deserve any sympathy or empathy from the public. He cannot defend his actions because he was wrong no matter which point of view is chosen to analyze the whole flasco. And Sprewell is an athlete who lives in luxury, unlike most of us who try to find nuggets of happiness during a routine work day. He has wealth most of us will never see, so how can I feel sorry that he will go without nearly $24 million during the next year? But Brown somehow feels for Sprewell, who would have been fired from any job for his actions against one of his bosses. In a politically correct world, I wonder how this man became mayor for a city as diverse as San Francisco. Remember that Brown called then-San Francisco quarterback Elvis Grbac an "embarrassment to humankind" for throwing a costly interception in a regular season game. Brown takes sports far too seriously. For that, I consider Brown an embarrassment to humankind. It has been an exhausting semester for sports fans, and I can imagine that will only continue through the holiday season. Best wishes to you until we meet again in January. Later. Gallagher is an Olathe, Kan., senior in journalism. Chiefs one step closer to playoffs at home KANSAS CITY, Mo. — That slippery, fragile thing the Kansas City Chiefs suddenly are cupping in the palms of their hands is their own plavoff destiny. The Associated Press A dominating 30-0 shutout of Oakland yesterday and Pittsburgh's 35-24 win against Denver mean the Chiefs (11-3) will capture home field throughout the AFC playoffs if they win their last two games at San Diego and home against New Orleans. The Broncos also are 11-3, but Kansas City has the tiebreaker advantage in the AFC West with only one loss in the division. The Broncos have two. In time of possession, it was Kansas City 41:30, Oakland 18:30. It was a poor effort on the part of the Raiders (4-10). In defeating their archrivals for the 15th time in 17 meetings, the Chiefs outgained them 418-93 and piled up 27 first downs to five. While the Chiefs had 214 yards rushing, the Raiders had 36. Rich Gannon threw one touchdown pass and rushed for another. Pete Stoyanovich kicked three field goals, extending his string to 16 straight without a miss. The Raiders, who came into the game tied for third in the NFL with 37 touchdowns and averaging 341.1 yards per game, came close to a touchdown only once, when James Jett dropped a pass in the end zone in the fourth quarter.

With No. 1 Michigan playing No. 8 Washington State in the Rose Bowl on Jan. 1, the Orange Bowl could turn into a national title game only if the Cougars (10-1) upset the Wolverines (11-0). The Orange Bowl is this year's top bowl alliance game and went for the highest-ranked teams available. The Sugar Bowl will match No. 4 Florida State (10-1) against No. 9 Ohio State (10-2), while the Fiesta will pair No. 10 Kansas State (10-1) vs. No. 14 Syracuse (9-3). "It was a very close decision," said Keith Tribble, the Orange Bowl's executive director. "We had an undefeated and No. 2 Nebraska, and we needed to get the No. 3 team, and that was Tennessee." But just barely. The Volunteers (11-1) got four touchdown passes from Heisman Trophy hopeful Peyton Manning and edged Auburn 30-29 in the SEC title game Saturday night. The result allowed the Volunteers to retain the No. 3 ranking. Automatic bowl alliance bids to the ACC, Big East, Big 12 and SEC champions, with two at-large bids available. The conference title winners were Florida State (ACC), Syracuse (Big East), Nebraska (Big 12) and Tennessee (SEC). Ohio State, second in the Big Ten, and Kansas State of the Big 12 were the atlargе picks, leaving No. 5 UCLA and No. 7 North Carolina out of the alliance. "There will always be a little controversy, but I'm not sure that controversy shouldn't be a part of this game," said Roy Kramer, the bowl alliance coordinator and SEC commissioner. "That's what "There will always be a little controversy, but I'm not sure that controversy shouldn't be a part of this game." Roy Kramer bowl alliance coordinator makes it great. We'll have a little bit of that, but most years we've always ended up a consensus No. 1 vs. No. 2, and we've seen that in the last two or three years, and I think we'll have that in the future." Next season, the Rose Bowl, Big Ten and Pac-10 conferences will become part of the alliance. If that had been the case this season, a true national title game would have matched No. 1 Michigan against No. 2 Nebraska (12-0). But for the second straight year, the top two teams will play games 3.000 miles apart. Last year, Ohio State beat Arizona State 20-17 in the Rose Bowl and spoiled the Sun Devils' national title hopes. The result also turned the Jan. 2 Sugar Bowl into a true title game when Florida, ranked third at the time, beat a No. 1 Florida State 52-20 for its first national championship. This time, the No. 1 team has to lose in the Rose Bowl to give Nebraska or Tennessee a title shot. Huskers coach Tom Osborne, whose team is 59-3 the past five seasons with national titles in 1994 and 1995, knows all about the twists and turns of winning a championship.

Focused'Huskers regain Big 12 title The Associated Press SAN ANTONIO - Now that Nebraska has settled the score in the Big 12 title game, the Cornhuskers can turn their attention to other things — such as rooting for Washington State in the Rose Bowl. "That's a given that we'll be rooting for Washington State." "Huskers quarterback Scott Frost said Saturday night after No. 2 Nebraska (12-0) defeated No. 14 Texas A&M 54-15 for the Big 12 title and a berth in the Orange Bowl. "But we can't control that. We just have to win our last game." That last game will be against No. 3 Tennessee, which beat No. 11 Auburn 30-29 Saturday night in the SEC championship game. For Nebraska to win the national title, the Cornhuskers must win the Orange Bowl and hope No. 8 Washington State upsets No. 1 Michigan (11-0) in the Rose Bowl Jan. 1. "I'm not rooting for anyone," said "Huskers coach Tom Osborne. "We'll just wait and see what happens. I'm just glad we won today." Still stinging from last year's 37-27 ambush by Texas in the conference title game, Nebraska scored on its first seven possessions and led 37-3 at halftime. Scott Frost threw for 201 yards and ran for two touchdowns, Ahman Green had three touchdowns and 179 yards, and Kris Brown kicked four field goals. The 'Huskers amassed 536 total yards against the Aggies (9-3). "We had a chip on our shoulder about what happened in St. Louis," Nebraska defensive end Grant Wistrom said of the loss to the Longhorns. "This has alw, ys been our battle cry over the summer. "I know that was the only thing I was thinking about when I worked, practiced or was in the weight room," he said. "We weren't going to let down. That loss is one I'll remember the rest of my life." Texas A&M, the Big 12 South champion, found itself in the wrong place at the wrong time Saturday against the North champion Cornhuskers and probably will end up in the Cotton Bowl. With a sellout Alamodome crowd of 64,824 watching, the 'Huskers had 353 first-half yards and held Texas A&M to just two first downs. Frost, just the 12th player in NCAA history to top 1,000 yards running and passing in the same season, scored on a 6-yard run, while Brown kicked field goals of 27, 26 and 31 yards, giving Nebraska a 16-0 first-quarter lead. Green, the nation's second leading rusher, followed with touchdown runs of 25 and 1 yards. He also had a 6-yard touchdown run in the fourth quarter. Frost hit Matt Davison with a 51-yard pass just before half-time and set up his own 2-yard touchdown run. Texas A&M coach R.C. Slocum said, "They beat us offensively, defensively and every possible way." "I'm disappointed in the way we played. Our offense has to bear some responsibility for the loss. They didn't make many first downs and stay on the field so our defense wouldn't have to work so hard."

Senate and its executive staff made changes to the Legal Services for Students policy, added a new branch to the Senate system, increased student fees for Saferide and set the wheels in motion for the formation of a course-content guide for students. Issues to look out for next semester are the Daisy Hill polling site and ethical choice for dissection in labs. With the legislation passed Wednesday, Legal Services for Students will be able to advise KU students on claims against the University next semester. The bill awaits approval from Chancellor Robert Hemenway, but Dave Stras, Legal Services for Students advisory board chairman and Law senator, said the final step should not be a problem. "Dr. Ambler has assured me that the Senate accomplishments Legislation allowing KU Legal Services to help students in legal battles with the University Creation of a judicial board Passing a 52 increase in transportation free for insurance Safefire services Creation of Student Senate online listserv present form of the bill was just fine," Stras said. "It's a significant change. This is a really significant thing. This is a big university, and it can be hard to get legal advice sometimes." Pat Mazumdar, Senate Executive Issues to watch for Daisy Hill polling site - Daisy Hill polling site - ethical choice policy for dissection in labs Committee member and graduate senator, disagreed with the significance of the change. "Ijust don't think it's a big deal," said Mazumdar, who thought that most student disputes with the University could be settled by the ombudsman. "How often is a real lawsuit going to come up?"

Photo by Dan Elavsky/KANSAN Last-minute tests could be prohibited Exams last week of school in lieu of finals not allowed By Matthew Friedrichs and Jennifer A. Yeoman matf@ukans.edu, jyeoman@kansan.com Kansan staff writers Final examinations begin Thursday. But some students have already taken their first finals. Students may be unaware that the tests they are taking during the last week of school are against University Senate Rules and Regulations. According to rule 1.3.2, which is printed in both the fall and spring timetables, examinations cannot be scheduled during the last week of classes unless a comprehensive final examination is scheduled during the final examination period. Carol Holstead, chair of the calendar committee and associate professor of journalism, said instructors at the University of Kansas should be aware of the rule. "There's no reason people don't know." Holstead said. Holstead said the rule had two important purposes. Without the rule, students could face multiple finals and tests during the last week of classes, Holstead said. Legal stuff "Ostensibly it's to protect students, but it's also to keep people working through their contract period," Holstead said. University Senate Rules and Regulations 1.3.2: "No examination may be scheduled during the last week of regularly scheduled classes unless a comprehensive final examination is given during the regularly scheduled final examination period. If an examination is the last work submitted in a course, then that examination shall be given during the regularly scheduled final examination period. "Any exceptions to the above paragraph must be approved by the Calendar Committee. Petitions to the committee must be submitted at least three weeks before the last scheduled day of classes. Students' academic best interests shall be the criteria for the Calendar Committee's decisions on petitions. "Students should report violations of the above to the appropriate department head or dean or to the Provost." According to the timetable, students are only obligated to take two finals in a day. No such protection exists for the regular semester. "I think it's a really important rule for students," said Nancy Dahl, professor of biochemistry, molecular and cellular biology. "If the rule didn't exist, then students would get all of their finals blocked up in the last two days of class. It's just not fair to have students take six finals in two days." See TESTS on page 9A Jubilee Cafe serves up breakfast for homeless By Melody Ard Special to the Konson Special to the Kansan The Jubilee Cafe, a restaurant set up in Fellowship Hall of Trinity Episcopal Church, 1011 Vermont St., serves breakfast every Tuesday morning to homeless people living in Lawrence. Thirty people stand outside in a doorway, shivering in the cold morning air as they listen to the sound of bacon sizzling on a skillet. Twelve people inside barely notice the crowd as they rush to prepare breakfast and set the tables for the 7 a.m. opening of the Jubilee Cafe. "I it's nice to sit down and someone comes and takes your order. It gives me a lift psychologically from the cafeteria line-type deal," said Jerry Nyhoff, cafe guest. "The food's great, too. I especially like the pancakes." Volunteer Nyhoff said he had learned the Cheryl Hill, co-coordinator of the cafe, said one of the goals of the Jubilee Cafe was to be different than a soup kitchen. Soup kitchens feed people using a cafeteria-style method, but the cafe provides guests an opportunity to sit down and pick their meal from the menu and be served at the table by volunteers. "I look forward to Tuesday mornings," he said. names of many of the volunteers and guests in the year he had been eating at the cafe. See RESTAURANT on page 10A 'South Park' cartoon fans nab street sign Theft could result $500 fine, jail time It was only a matter of time someone swiped the South Park sign in Lawrence. By Mary Corcoran mcorcoran@kansan.com Kansas man writer South Park Street is located directly south of Lawrence's South park. It intersects with Massachusetts Street between 13th and 11th streets. The stolen sign marked the intersection of Massachusetts and South Park streets. A vandal braved the risk of committing a crime virtually in front of the Lawrence police station and took the green and white sign with the popular Comedy Central cartoon's name printed on it. The Lawrence traffic department has already replaced the sign — at a price of $200. Costly, especially if the sign gets getting stolen. "When we find that a sign keeps disappearing, we get different types of bolts and nuts that won't fit regular wrenches. That makes the sign close to vandal-proof," said David Woosley, Lawrence transportation and traffic engineer. Woosley said there were many places in Lawrence where sign crews frequently reported missing signs. These signs, which Woosley could not specifically identify, are attached with the vandal proof nuts and bolts at a slightly higher cost. "It has a maximum sentence of a $500 fine and six months in jail," Porter said. Lawrence police Sgt. Susan City prosecutor Tom Porter said that a person who was caught stealing or attempting to steal a street sign would be charged with petit larceny. The actual sentence depends on the person's record and the value of the property stolen, Porter said. SOUTH PARK LA VALLEY, 1864 OTTAWA LAMBURGE VILLAGE REGISTRY Hadl said she did not know the exact date of the South Park sign theft, but she said the theft did not surprise her. The sign at the corner of South Park and Massachusetts streets was stolen recently. The theft is believed to have been related to the Comedy Central cartoon which shares the name South Park. The cost for replacing the sign was $200. Photo by Roger Namer/KANSAN Lawrence parks and recreation representatives agreed, but director Fred DeVictor said that South Park in Lawrence should be valued for its history, not the coincidence of sharing a name with the cartoon. "South Park was part of the original Lawrence town site that was established in 1855," DeVictor said. "It got its name because it marked the south extremity of the city at that time. Today, it is used for a wide variety of functions, from band concerts to weddings." + > 2A The Inside Front Tuesday December 9,1997 News from campus, the state, the nation and the world BALTIMORE TEHRAN LOS ANGELES WASHINGTON NATIONAL BALTIMORE: The National Transportation Safety Board convened a weeklong hearing yesterday into the cause of the TWA Flight 800 crash, one day after the agency released documents suggesting that fuel vapors or bad wiring may have caused the explosion.

INTERNATIONAL TEHRAN, Iran; Iran and Saudi Arabia are edging closer after nearly 20 years of acrimony — a move that threatens to undermine U.S. efforts to isolate Iran. NATIONAL Board searching for cause of TWA Flight 800 crash BALTIMORE — The National Transportation Safety Board convened a weeklong hearing yesterday into the cause of the TWA Flight 800 crash, one day after the agency released documents suggesting fuel vapors or bad wiring may have caused the explosion. "While the shock of this event has slowly abated, the horror has not," board chairman James Hall told the crowd of reporters and experts. The spark that ignited the fuel tank in the Boeing 747 off the coast of Long Island, just minutes after it left Kennedy International Airport for Paris on July 17, 1996, remains as elusive as ever. All 230 people on board were killed. The Safety Board released thousands of pages of documents on the explosion Sunday but still cited no cause. The documents said that vapors in the nearly empty center fuel tank likely were ready to explode before the plane left the ground. Investigators also reported discovering wires with insulation worn away in bundles of wiring leading through the plane's center fuel tank. In some sections of the miles of wiring retrieved from the ocean, investigators found the insulation was corroded or cracked to the core. Investigators have looked into suggestions offered in more than 500 letters from university professors and aviation enthusiasts. Hall said yesterday. "Some of these theories are just not possible," he said. "But of those that were, I can assure you that we had already examined most of them and we made sure we looked into the rest." The documents and the hearings may help the National Transportation Safety Board pressure the Federal Aviation Administration to adopt potentially costly recommendations to reduce temperatures in fuel tanks so they cannot explode. Amphibians can die with excessive natural sunlight WASHINGTON — Biologists have shown for the first time that excess ultraviolet rays from natural sunlight kills amphibians, an ominous sign of the dangers of solar radiation leaking through a thinning ozone layer. Oregon State University researchers found that natural sunlight contains enough ultraviolet-B radiation to kill most embryos of the long-toed salamander in mountain lakes of the Cascade Mountain Range, a home for the animals for thousands of years. Salamanders shielded from UVB were able to reproduce normally in the lakes, said Andrew Blaustein, leader of the Oregon team. "We were stunned by our findings," said Blaustein. "This is proof that excess UVB radiation in nature can cause death and deformity in this species." A report on the study was being published today in the Proceedings of the Other scientists said the study sharpens concern about the thinning of the natural ozone layer of the atmosphere that normally shields the Earth from high levels of UVB. Studies have shown that the ozone layer has been eroded by industrial chemicals, principally chlorofluorocarbons used in refrigeration. National Academy of Sciences. Such chemicals are being phased out or have been banned worldwide, but the chemicals from earlier years remain in the atmosphere and continue to affect the ozone layer. Among the effects is the so-called ozone hole that forms annually over the Antarctic, but similar thinning has been detected over North America. Blaustein said the findings strongly supported the theory that increased solar UVB had played a role in the worldwide decline of a number of amphibian species. Most of these animals reproduce by laying eggs in jelly-like masses in shallow water where they can be affected by solar UVB radiation. Scientists internationally have reported a sharp decline in the numbers of frogs, toads and salamanders in many locations and a number of explanations have been proposed. Likely Clinton appointee could face GOP challenge WASHINGTON — Looking to pressure Congress, the White House pushed the idea yesterday that President Clinton might appoint Bill Lann Lee as his new civil rights chief while lawmakers are out of session and powerless to stop him. At every turn, the president's aides were saying that Clinton hopes the Senate will confirm Lee as assistant attorney general for civil rights but remains willing to make a rare recess appointment if Republican opposition persists. "I think it's clear what we will do." White House spokesman Mike McCurry said when asked about the president's options if opponents refuse to grant Lee a Senate vote. Abandoning Lee in favor of another nominee was not an option, McCurry said. Attorney General Janet Reno appeared with Lee at a Justice Department ceremony and said Senate opponents were using unfair reasons to deny him a vote. "Some say he should be denied the job simply as a payback for the rejection of past nominees. Others say he should be rejected because he shares the views of the president on affirmative action." Reno said. "I say 'no' to that, and so does the president." A White House official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said some senators have cited the idea of avenging two civil rights nominees from GOP administrations who, like Lee, failed to win approval from a Senate committee. Those people are Bill Lucas, nominated by President Bush in 1989, and William Bradford Reynolds, nominated by President Reagan in 1985. "The president would like to see (Lee) confirmed, first and foremost, but in any event wants him to serve as assistant attorney general." McCurry said. But Clinton did not act immediately to name Lee. LOS ANGELES — A federal judge yesterday refused to block the release of Steven Spielberg's "Amistad," saying the moviemaker did not appear to have plagiarized a novel about the 19th-century mutiny aboard a slave ship. U. S. District Judge Audrey Collins rebuffed a move by Barbara Chase-Riboud to stop the film's premiere tomorrow in New York and Los Angeles and Friday in the nation's 50 biggest markets. 'Amistad' release intact in spite of plagiarism suit But the judge said Chase-Riboud could press ahead with her lawsuit and try to prove at a trial her claim that much of the "Amistad" screenplay was stolen from her historical novel "Echo of Lions." "The judge said there was no reasonable likeliness of success on the merits of the case," said Bert Fields, an attorney for Spielberg and his DreamWorks studio. "She took apart their claims of similarities and said these things appear to come from history." Chase-Riboud said she was disappointed but confident she would prevail at trial, which has not yet been scheduled. "A preliminary injunction is the only protection a poor person has against a rich infringer," she said outside court. "I'm doing this for all writers." The dispute has turned increasingly personal and vitriolic. "What an irony that the renowned filmmaker who produced and directed "The Color Purple" would be a party to denying a prominent black American of letters and the arts her rightful recognition for raising public consciousness about slavery," Chase-Riboud's lawyers said in court papers. The allegations challenge the reputation of Hollywood's best-known director about a movie Spielberg calls perhaps the most important of his career. In turn, Dream-Works is attacking the integrity of the award-winning novelist. The tentative ruling was made after the parties failed to reach a settlement behind closed doors. INTERNATIONAL Iran, Saudi Arabia inching toward peace agreement TEHRAN, Iran — Iran and Saudi Arabia are edging closer after nearly 20 years of acrimony — a move that threatens to undermine U.S. efforts to isolate Iran. Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince Abdullah arrived yesterday in Tehran for an important Islamic summit with delegates from more than 50 Muslim nations. His presence, and an expected meeting with Iranian President Mohammad Khatami, follows months of diplomatic maneuvering for a rapprochement. Their talks, though distracting attention from the Organization of the Islamic Conference summit, could mark a turning point in relations between the two most influential Islamic countries. Saudi Arabia has been a close American ally for more than half a century — 5,000-plus U.S. troops are in the kingdom — though a new warmth toward Iran could jeopardize those ties. The United States has been seeking to isolate Iran since the 1979 Islamic revolution toppled the U.S.-backed shah and led to 52 Americans being held hostage for more than one year. Washington regards Iran as a sponsor of terrorism and has severely criticized its opposition to the Middle East peace process. A Saudi-Iranian axis also would be regarded as a grave threat by Washington's prime Mideast align, Israel. The kingdom is the world's largest oil exporter and played host to the U.S.-led coalition against Iraq in the 1991 Persian Gulf War. Last year, however, the Saudis refused permission for U.S. planes based in Saudi Arabia to take part in an attack on Iraq. And last month, they joined most Arab states in boycotting a U.S.-backed economic conference in Qatar. In Washington, State Department spokesman James Foley said he would have no official comment about the Islamic conference until after it ended. He added that there was no significance to the fact that the Islamic summit was better attended than the Qatar conference because the OIC was a well-established institution.

Oaks Oaks Oaks KONZERTS Oaks BON DIVISION Section A·Page 3 The University Daily Kansan Tuesday, December 9, 1997 December graduates appreciate individual recognition ceremonies By Rachelle Datweiler rddetweiler@kansan.com Kansan staff writer Many students who are graduating and leaving Lawrence may find that their degree is the only recognition they'll receive. Each school offers December graduation ceremonies at its discretion, and this semester, the School of Engineering, the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences and the School of Journalism are the only schools planning a public acknowledgment. All December graduates can walk down the hill in May, but schools with a high enrollment, such as the College, and schools whose graduates often move after receiving a degree, such as the engineering school, offer a ceremony and a reception in December to honor their students, said Jeannette Johnson, assistant to the provost. "That walk down the hill means a lot to people," she said. "If they can't do that, they may go home or go to any parties they may have planned." The college experience may seem incomplete Winter Walkers December graduation ceremonies: 1:30 p.m. Sunday at Woodruff Auditorium in the Kansas Union Doctoral graduate of the University College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. School of Engineering: 1 p.m. Sunday at Crafton-Preyer Theater in Murphy Hall School of Journalism 3:00 p.m. Sunday at Woodruff Auditorium in the Kansas Union for those students who can't walk down the hill and whose schools do not offer a December ceremony. Johnson said The School of Engineering frequently receives letters of appreciation from students' parents in response to the ceremony, and last year about 450 students participated, said Ann Bakerink, director of academic studies in the engineering school. The School of Engineering's graduation ceremony is at 1:30 p.m. Sunday at Wooldruff Auditorium in the Kansas Union, and it will offer students an opportunity to walk across the stage. Bakerink said. Erin Spiridigliozi, assistant dean of the College, said that December graduation ceremonies offer an intimate setting where students can celebrate the completion of college with their peers. "People felt it was a much more intimate ceremony and a more tangible march than the full-blown University graduation where the students get lost in the quantity of students," she said. This is the second December graduation ceremony that the College has offered. It starts at 1 p.m. Sunday at Crafton-Preyer Theater in Murphy Hall. The response to last year's December graduation for the College was overwhelming, and this year the parents and family of graduates are expected to fill the theater, Spiridigloloz said. The ceremony will also provide students and faculty with another chance to see each other if they cannot attend the May graduation. "We certainly wanted to do this for the benefit of our students, but we also saw it as a mechanism for faculty to participate one more time with our graduates," Spridigliozi said. GTAs continue push for health care By Mike Perryman Kansas staff writer Kansan staff writer The University and its graduate teaching assistants will push for progress as they sit through yet another Kansas Health Care Commission meeting Thursday in Topeka. The meeting will be held at 1:30 p.m. in Room 123 south of the Capitol building. It will focus on a proposed regulation that would allow the commission to develop a new, statewide health care policy that could replace the student health care plan at each of the Regents universities. Approval of the regulation would be a significant step in the GTA's quest for an affordable health care policy and an adequate employer health care contribution. The proposed policy is specifically aimed at improving health care for CTAs. The commission is expected to vote on the regulation Thursday and decide whether the University would be permitted to buy the statewide policy, and if so, whether GTAs would be eligible for it, Provost David Shulenburzer said. "I'm optimistic that they'll vote on the statewide policy on Thursday," he said. "As far as I know, the statewide plan would be optional but would be available to all students if they wanted it." If the regulation is approved, the next step would be for the health care commission to decide how much the University would contribute to the plan, said Stephen Mathis, chairman of the GTA negotiating committee. The policy is still vague and has not yet specified what the employer's health care contribution would be. The University and its GTAs want the commission to know that they want a 75 percent employer contribution. "If the HCC dictates the University's contribution to be 50 percent, we're basically screwed," Mathis said. "We really need 75 percent for it to be affordable." At the last meeting, the commission released an economic impact statement, which broke down the costs of the proposed health care plan. It showed the employer's contribution as 50 percent. "That figure is not set in stone," Mathis said. "It was simply used by the commission while crunching numbers to see if the plan would be feasible." The University and the GTA union tentatively agreed on the 75 percent employer contribution and submitted their plan to the commission in September. They emphasized the importance of the 75 percent contribution at the last commission meeting, which was held Oct.20. Right now, a GTA health care plan doesn't exist. With the statewide plan, the University would be able to contribute 75 percent to help pay for GTA health care costs, said Helen Sheumaker, a graduate teaching assistant in the Western Civilization department. At the same time, the plan would cover a larger, statewide base of students. With more students participating in the plan, the amount required by the University would be reduced. Sheumaker said. If the regulation is approved, the health care commission will begin negotiating the statewide health care plan with different health insurance companies, which would in turn administer the plan to the University, said Jeannette Johnson, assistant to the provost. "I was told a couple of times that the commission would be able to negotiate a plan that would be at least equal to the students' current plan," she said. GTAs want the health care coverage to at least be equal to the present student insurance plan, Mathis said. "It is going to be interesting to see how some of this plays out with the legislature," he said.

IT'S NICE TO HAVE A BREAK. CHAOS. SCHOOL CAN GET SO CRAZY. IT FEELS GOOD TO BE AWAY FROM ALL THE... Dolly Kantzner 11/26 DAILY KENT STATER Examining Better communication is key to the Kansan Board's decisions Many within the University community disagreed when on Nov. 24th, the Kansan Board decided to fire Spencer Duncan, the editor of "The University Daily Kansan." In making that decision, the Kansan Board opened itself to an examination of how well it discharged its responsibility to represent the views of the University and the students it serves. Three journalism faculty members, the editor of the "Kansan," the business manager of the "Kansan," and a Student Senate representative comprise the Kansan Board. Duncan was the subject of the meeting and the Student Senate representative was not present, so that left the three faculty members, Duncan and the business manger as the only members who voted when the decision to fire Duncan was made. The Kansan Constitution states that the editor of the "Kansan" acts at the "the pleasure" of the Kansan Board. These four members fired Duncan because they were "displeased" with some of the editorial desicions he made, specifically concerning headlines that were deemed offensive to the University community. But what University community or journalistic standards do the board members really represent? Three of the five board members who made the decision to fire Spencer were faculty members, none under the age 49. The majority of "Kansan" readers are students in their 20s. Yes, headlines like "Blow Me" are in bad taste, but they are less offensive to college kids than then they are to the much smaller, over 40 years old contingent of "Kansan" readers. Perhaps if the board had operated under its three student, three faculty composition, they would have decided that Duncan's mistakes were not necessarily grounds for termination. If the board had asked the student body, or better yet a large amount of the "Kansan" staff, they would have found many positive and professional aspects of Duncan's performance as an editor, and may have thought twice about the decision. The manner in which the Karsan Board acted was not only stodgy, it was precipitous. Duncan had no prior warning that his mistakes were so fatal. Although it is good that the Kansan Board, in the past, has taken a very hands-off approach when governing the "Kansan," a little more communication between the "Kansan" and the board might help the board to understand the goals of the "Kansan" and surely would help the editor understand the expectations of the board. In this case, a bit more contact could have made Duncan's termination avoidable, or at least better justified. The Kansan board needs to ask itself whether its decision accurately represents the University community of readers, both students and adults. The board did not have a good line of communication with the "Kansan" before, and now that they've found themselves in a legal — perhaps First Ammendment — crack, the communication has ceased completely. If the board doesn't seek some sort of dialogue with the students it represents, it will being doing the University a disservice both educationally and journalistically. Elizabeth Musser for the editorial board Thanks for reading, now get involved On behalf of the entire "Kansan" staff, we would like to thank you, the reader, for taking the time to peruse our paper. We'd also like to thank those of you who participated in the discussions that took place on this editorial page. It was our intention to get more student voices into the paper. While that was not accomplished in every case, there has been good dialogue on a number of issues facing our student community. It needs to continue. Each semester the "Kansan" staff renews itself. New people are assigned to new positions and the paper quickly develops its own unique attitude and outlook about campus events. As always, it is journalism students who are in the management position at the "Kansan." Where you can get involved is on the opinion page. Write letters to the editor and guest columns. Apply to be on the editorial board. It is in these ways that the "Kansan" will become what its masthead proclaims: "The Student Newspaper of the University of Kansas."

Raving "Why is it," he moaned, "that the Student Senate has to be such a pathetic pack of politicos? They con- Clay McCuistion I was sitting in Frank's residence hall room, as he took long sips from a glass of what I thought was probably vegetable juice. "I don't know," I said. Why should you care?" "I'm the chairman for the petition drive to establish a Daisy Hill earmuff-pickup site," he said. opinion@kansap.com "Earmuff pickup site?" "Of course! Think of all. the kU students whose ears are freezing — and perhaps being permanently damaged — by winter weather. There are your usual ear-muff-pickup sites at Wescoe Beach and on, but one is really needed close to the residence balls." "You mean the Student Senate rejected such a useful hill?" Frank sighed and drank more vegetable juice. "Yes. The earmuff bill has had a long and troubled history in the senate," he explained. "A large group of senators think students should buy their own earmuffs." "Exactly. We've told them over and over that the average poverty-strenken college student can't afford decent earnuphs, but they feel that earnuphs are a privilege, not a right." "But the cost of earmuffs these days!" "Shows what elitists most senators are, I guess." "The first year we proposed it — the 1995-96 school year — it was shot down by J. Quentin Crispin afanasieff IV, whose dad just happens to own the largest earmuff factory in the state. We proposed it again last year, but someone misspelled 'earmuffs' on the bill. Because no one could figure out what 'earkuffs' were, it was rejected again." "We come to this year, then. What happened?" "Why?" "We started a petition drive, hoping that students would see the necessity of providing toasty-warm ear protection to those less fortunate. We collected the required thousand signatures, but the subcommittee on earmuff regulation threw out half of the petitions." "Well, the student response hadn't been what we expected, so the petition committee made up a lot of signatures before we turned the forms in. Apparently the subcommittee didn't think that Frank M. Stein or Donald Trump attended school here." Frank nodded and poured himself another glass of vegetable juice. I noticed a paper bag was wrapped around the bottle he used. "It was difficult," he agreed. "But we were given an extra few days and found the additional signatures. The subcommittee approved the forms, and it went on the Senate as a whole." "That must have been a hard blow." "What happened?" "No one could have predicted it, Clay. A group of animal liberationists accidentally stormed into the meeting—they'd been heading to the bowling alley—and managed to convince the group that earmuffs were a cruel use of the polyester beetle, which only lives in the tropical rainforests." I raised my eyebrows. "I thought polyester was synthetic." Isaid. "That's only the cheap polyester," Frank said. "The high-quality stuff used in earmuffs come from the polyester beetle. The Student Senate seized on the idea right away, of course, because they like to be environmentally correct. After a couple of minutes of debate, the bill was rejected for another year." I patted Frank on the shoulder. "Tough break. But at least you weren't advocating the bill for a Daisy Hill polling site." Frank's face brightened. "That's right," he said. "At least someone has it worse than I do." McCuistion is an El Dorado freshman in journalism. Feedback Student body vice president responds Furthermore, the article states, "Walden says he will object to the bill if it's brought up in StudEx. He said he thinks it's the job of the elections commission to make the changes regarding polling sites." This "Kansan" story clearly depicts my intentions and reasoning for ruling the Daisy Hill petition out of order. As those who followed Wednesday night's meeting can attest, I acted reasonably (and well within Student Senate Rules and Regulations and Robert's Rules of Order) in pursuing my interpretation that Student Senate should not hear issues concerning the Elections Commission. In a letter to the editor appearing in the Dec. 5 issue of the "University Daily Kansan," former senator Erika Nutt, accuses me, as student body vice president, of "admitting to this entire University that [I] am opposed to the issue of a Daisy Hill polling site in [the Dec.] issue of the Kansan." I would like to take this opportunity to respond to Ms. Nutt's claims. If Nutt had read my position in the Dec. 3 issue of the Kansan, she would realize that I have never been in opposition to a polling site on Daisy Hill. In fact, I am quoted as saying, "I'm not against a polling site on Daisy Hill, but I believe that the method being used here is improper." Some have claimed that I acted improperly by not referring the Daisy Hill polling site petition to committees. To that, I respond that, upon receiving confirmation from the Elections Commission that the petition's signatures were valid, I immediately e-mailed and met with Seth Hoffman (the senator responsible for collecting the signatures). At that time, I advised Hoffman (orally and in writing) to allow me to refer the petition to standing committees rather than StudEx. Additionally, I expressed to Hoffman my interpretation of Senate Rules and Regulations and informed Hoffman that I would deem this petition as out of order. It was my hope that Senate would uphold that ruling, thus sending the petition to Student Referendum. Finally, I am extremely disappointed with the manner in which Mike Walden The challenge for the University is to create an environment where people of color and other cultures feel comfortable enough, accepted enough and respected enough to work. The University's current demographics may reflect a perception that this University is not such an environment. Good for animals good for humans Mike Cuenca Assistant professor of journalism I stated that the mono-cultural demographics of this region often result in a lack of experience with people of other enninicities, cultures, etc. The challenge, consequently, for many people in this region is to accept different peoples as intellectual equals; peoples who are potentially as gifted, as capable, as worthy of teaching, managing and leading at this University as are the people of the mainstream culture. Mike Walden student body vice president Simply hiring more minority people is not enough. All people — whether minority or white male — must be guaranteed an equal opportunity to excel here. They must be guaranteed that they can be themselves, that they will not be forced to conform to the mainstream's cultural expectations in order to succeed. In other words, even if they don't conform to the mainstream culture's stereotype of success (white, male, coat and tie) they will be guaranteed the right to maintain their personal identity and still expect to be equally judged for recognition, promotion and leadership based on their intellect, character, performance and productivity. I want to clarify the comments I made to your reporter, concerning the diversity of the faculty of KU. Portions of my comments, which affect the context of my statement, were omitted from the published story. Recently, in column against animal rights activism, Clay Clarifying comments on diversity issue my views, clearly on current public record, have been entirely distorted. It is my hope that both the "Kansan" and Ms. Nutt acknowledge the errors in Nutt's letter. McCuistion described a world in which humans and other animals are in competition. However, situations in which the interests of humans and animals are at odds with one another are extremely uncommon, if they exist at all. Using his own example, one can make the case that what's good for animals is also good for humans. McCuiusion, a diabetic, claims that theuse and killing of animals in research lead to the discovery of insulin and an effective treatment for diabetes. However, McCuiusion's assertion that researchers were left with a choice to either kill animals or to let humans suffer and die - is up for debate. Studies using animals unnecessarily replicated what was already shown to be true through human studies. Animal experiments diverted attention from actual mechanisms of the disease and lead to skepticism about the safety and effectiveness of insulin therapy in humans. Arguably, the use of animals actually delayed effective treatment for diabetes. (Bliss, 1862) makes it clear that McCuision and millions of other diabetics owe their lives not to animal experiments, but rather to research with humans. Before 1900, human case studies and autopsy reports had already elucidated the link between diabetes and insulin-producing cells of the pancreas, the "islets of Langerhans." At best, animal studies contributed very little to our understanding of diabetes. However, human studies continue to lead the way in treatment and prevention of diabetes, recently pointing to the consumption of dairy products as a cause of childhood diabetes. This discovery would not have occurred through animal experimentation. Many scientists oppose animal research because they believe it is detrimental to human health. It's time we abandon needless experiments on animals and shift our resources to prevention and human research. The Discovery of Insulin (Bliss, 1982) makes it clear that Michael Schmitt Harrisonburg, Va., graduate student Tuesday, December 9, 1997 (3) 已知 $f(x)$ 是奇函数，$g(x)$ 是偶函数，且 $f(-x) = -g(-x)$。若存在实数 $a, b \in \mathbb{R}$，使 $f(a) + g(b) = 0$，则 $f(x)$ 与 $g(x)$ 的交点个数为 ___。 The University Daily Kansan Section A · Page 5 KJHK bucks trends and plays polka By Darrin Poschka Special to the Kansan It's only two minutes until air time at KJHK and David Hennessy kneels in front of shelves iam-packed with CDs and records by artists like Nirvana and Railroad Jerk. He carefully selects the album that will open his show — a new release from self-procled "polka-lovin' gal" Kristine Hibbs. 100 Hennessy: Polka DJ at KJHK At 3 p.m., Hennessy, Clifton Park, N.Y., senior, flips on the microphone and says, "Hi, you're listening to KJHK and this is the Jukebox Polka Show." Hosted by Hennessy, the Jukebox Polka Show, just completed its second semester on the air. It airs from 3 to 4 p.m. on Fridays and is becoming increasingly popular among students who are more accustomed to the alternative, college-rock, and heavy metal music generally heard on KJHK. While accordions and tubas may seem out of place on a student-run station, Hennessy said the show was popular and he had received a lot of positive feedback, especially from people who call in during his program. On this particular day, Beatrize Ibarra, Overland Park junior, calls in and asks that a song, any song, be played especially for her. Although she is not familiar with any particular artist or song, she listens every week while working at Lu Lu's, a restaurant in downtown Lawrence. "I cut vegetables and noodles in a basement and whenever the show comes on, we dance around." "Polka may be a growing trend because people tend to listen to new things," Ibarra said. "I cut vegetables and noodles in a basement and whenever the show comes on, we dance Beatrize Ibarra overland park junior around." Another caller, an elderly Lawrence gentleman, requests one of his favorite polka tunes, the "Hoop De Doo Polka." While Hennessy happens to have this particular song on hand, he said requests were sometimes difficult to accommodate because of the limited supply of polka albums in the studio. He has about 20 records and a smaller number of CDs. Finding the latest albums and artists also can be difficult, Hennessy said. Record labels usually do not carry polka artists because they do not generate high enough sales, Hennessy said. Therefore, he has to wait for artists to send new albums to the station, or he will try to find material that his listeners recommend. However, today he happens to have some extra copies of albums and the lucky third caller is now the proud owner of the latest Eddie Blazonczyk album. Some of the more popular poka artists include Blazonczyk, who resembles Al of the popular television series "Home Improvement" and Hibbs. Hennessy agreed that polka music was atypical for a student-run college radio station where the norm was electric guitars and thumping bass. He said even some of his friends found his musical taste a little unusual. "It's a big joke among us, but everybody knows that I do this just for fun. If you listen to polka because you think you are cool, then you're in trouble," Hennessy said. Design program is real-world challenge By Carolyn Mollett Special to the Kansan Ryan Hembree sat on the black futon in his room and fidgeted with his eraser as he sketched a cello. It was after midnight, and Hembree, Overland Park junior, was working furiously to sketch musical instruments onto tracing paper. In less than eight hours, he had to meet with representatives from KANU radio station to present his ideas for an advertisement. Hembree is one of 15 students in The Arts, an elite program in the Design Department intended to give students a taste of the real world by having them design logos, posters, signs, brochures, programs and newspaper advertisements for clients. Hembree said he usually spent close to 40 hours a week working on projects for The Arts. "It's like a full-time job," he said. Later, Dick Varney, instructor and director of The Arts, told Hembree the sketches of the instruments were not original enough and he had to start again with a new concept and new designs. The class meets twice a week, but most work is done outside of class. Varney uses class time to critique projects and to allow students to share ideas. To simulate the atmosphere of a studio, Varney added a conference table to the classroom to go along with the students' individual work stations. "If you had walked into here two months ago, it would have looked like a glorified classroom." Varney said. Students in the class are responsible for dealing with printers, deadlines and budgets and also must maintain constant contact with clients. The Arts has two permanent clients: The Lied Center and The University Theatre. Charla Jenkins, public relations coordinator for The University Theatre, said that she had been associated with the program since it began in 1979. "I think it's wonderful. It's been good for the kids," Jenkins said. Jennifer Ray, associate art director at Intertec Publishing Corporation in Overland Park, is a former Arts student. Ray said her time in The Arts was excellent training and prospective employers looked for experience like hers. The program is selective about its students. Faculty members review students' portfolios and make recommendations before Varney makes a decision about whom to accept. Legally, The Arts cannot charge organizations for its services, Varney said. Some clients donate money, which is added to a budget to pay for supplies. The only cost that clients must cover is for printing. Lincolnshire since 1992 C. R. BURNS & CO.

The University committee on intellectual property is inviting students and faculty to discuss intellectual property policy at an open forum and brown bag lunch at 11:30 a.m. The Board of Regents will write a policy on intellectual property this summer. That policy will determine how much control, if any, the University will have over copy and patent rights of student and faculty works. According to current practice, anything created — textbooks, creative works, student projects, inventions — by students or faculty is the sole property of the creator. Whether that practice will change is unknown. For the most part, the feedback about an intellectual property policy has come from faculty, said Laurence Draper, professor of biology and University Council president. Carl Locke, chairman of the University governance study group on intellectual property and dean of engineering, wants the ad hoc committee to gather input, especially from students, about the upcoming policy. Pat Mazumdar, Pittsburgh graduate student and Senate Executive Committee member, said he was concerned with how a policy may affect graduate students like himself who are studying and researching under an adviser. "Graduate students are in an interesting position," Mazumdar said. "They aren't faculty, but they are doing research and collecting the data from that research." Locke said he thought the new intellectual property policy would include graduate and undergraduate classwork and research. Artwork produced in a painting class or a research paper written in a history class are examples of classwork that may be affected by the policy, he said. "Graduate students are in an interesting position. They aren't faculty, but they are doing research and collecting the data from that research." Pat Mazumdar Pittsburgh, Pa., graduate student "Right now," Locke said. "We have no written policy about who owns the rights to those works." Locke said this would be the third session the study group has held. Locke has already made presentations to University Council and the department heads in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. "What we are doing is trying to collect ideas and opinions from students about what should be a part of this policy," he said. This information will be presented to the Regents before they Brown Bag Basics Brown Bag Lunch info 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. - Walnut Room of the Kansas Union - Coffee and soft drinks will be provided University Governance Intellectual Property www.cc.ukans.edu/history/unigov/ intel.html draft the policy this summer. "I'd like to be able to report to the Regents an accurate take on what students at the University think about intellectual property," Locke said. For students and faculty who are unable to attend the brown bag luncheon, university governance has set up a Web site detailing the issues surrounding intellectual property. Visitors to the site at www.cc.ukans.edu/history/unigov/intela.html can read the 12 issues for discussion outlined by the Regents. Change that grade? Maybe, but be prepared with a good reason, diligence and patience Jennifer A. Yeoman Kansan staff writer Getting a grade changed after it has been posted for the semester may be harder to do than simply to study for final exams. According to University Senate Rules and Regulations, no change in grade shall be made after it is filed with the University Registrar on the third day after finals — which this year falls on Tuesday. Dec. 23. However, there are exceptions to the rule. NOTE: not sure exceptions to the rule. Students can have a grade changed if the grade resulted as an error or if the grade was incomplete or in progress. In these cases, there is no deadline for a professor to change a grade, said Rich Morrell, University registrar. Koren Hawk, "Topeka sophomore, said, 'I had a grade changed last fall because my teacher misgraded my project. I was one point away from a B. So, after I got my grade card in January, I went in to talk to my teacher." But Hawk's grade change was not instantaneous. "It took about four months," Hawk said. "It was easy talking to the teacher to ask him to change my grade, but the process was aggravating because the teacher never did what he said he was going to do. I eventually had to talk to the school's dean." Grades can be changed by a three member faculty committee for several reasons, including a professor who has been found guilty of sexual harassment or a clerical error by a seriously ill or incapacitated professor. The committees are appointed by the dean or chair of the department or shool. The faculty board would then review the student's work and assign a grade. To change a grade, students must appeal within the department or school from which the grade was issued. Each department and school may have its own procedure for handling these appeals. Mary Wallace, assistant to the dean of the school of journalism, said the school followed the same procedure as most of the University. "If a student wants to change a grade, they have to speak to their professor, who is the only person who may change their grade," Wallace said. "The student may appeal to the faculty committee, but I always tell them that the committee can only ask the teacher to review the student's grade. The faculty committee can't change a grade."

Photo by Roger Nomer/KANSAN Searching for glamorous women Kansan staff report "Glamour" magazine is accepting applications for its Top Ten college women of 1998. The award is open to women at four-year institutions who are in their third year. Winners receive $1,000 and the opportunity to meet with professional women in their field of study. Kim Cohen, editorial coordinator of "Glamour," said the competition was first started for the best-dressed college women on campus. A few years later, the former editor-in-chief, Ruth Whitney, decided to change the competition from what women were wearing to what they actually accomplished. "We're recognizing the potential leaders," she said. Cohen said that the magazine looked for students who had more than just good grades. Every year, they receive about 1,000 applications. "The people who stand out are the ones who usually go beyond the university experience," she said. Applicants must submit an academic transcript, letters of recommendation, a list of activities and an essay describing their most meaningful accomplishment. Students who wish to enter the competition can contact the Office of Student Financial Aid, call 1-800-244-GLAM or e-mail, tcw@Glamour.com [Mountain Range] Sleep around.

Jacki Becker, publicity director for Pipeline Productions, said during the holiday break shows mellowed out and became more locally oriented. "Most bands are wise enough to know not to drive through Kansas during the winter," Beckersaid. As for New Year's Eve entertainment, Becker said both the Bottleneck and the Granada sold out every year. "We have champagne and confetti and party hats and all of that good stuff," she said. SUA to offer preview of 'Still Breathing' For students who are looking for something to do once classes are over, Student Union Activities is showing a free premiere of the movie "Still Breathing" at 8 p.m. tonight at Woodruff Auditorium in the Kansas Union. Network Event Theater and General Foods International Coffees are co-sponsoring the movie, which will be shown at 29 other schools across the country. Kansan staff writer "We are always looking for movies to premiere to the audience," she said. Fran Troy, campus coordinator for Network Event Theater, said the movie had a light theme. cmoore@kansan.com Kansan staff writer his dreams The film is a romance about a street performer who has a vision of his life-long love. The main character goes on a search to find the woman in "Still Breathing" was written, produced and directed by James F. Robinson. It is his debut film, and it stars Brendan Fraser from the movie "George of the Jungle" and Goanna Going from the movie "Dark Shadows." Bv Corrie Moore Ana Calderon, Shawnee senior and SUA feature films coordinator, said SUA had around 1,000 packages of coffee from General Foods International Coffee and around 16 coffee mugs to give away to the audience. Everyone will get a package of coffee, and they will give away the mugs by a raise of hands. "We usually throw things, but I don't think we'll be throwing the mugs," she said. Calderon said SUA had free vouchers for the movie available today starting at 8 a.m. "It will be pretty exciting," she said. "It's the sneak preview of a major motion picture." Calderon said tonight would be a good night to see a free movie because no one has classes tomorrow. "I know it's going to be kind of a snowy evening," she said. Calderon said that students enjoyed seeing movies before anyone else. "I think that the things that go over best are the sneak previews," she said. This will be the last film SUA shows for the semester, but Calderon said that they have at least 10 films planned to show next semester. ay Daniel E. Thompson dthompson@kansan.com Kansan staff writer Web site lacks aim abort, retry, fail? Bretz said committee members included librarians to lend expertise on how libraries organize its information, Academic Computing Services personnel to help with the technical aspects and a graphics designer to ensure visual quality. Unlike the millions of Web sites on the Web, KUFacts is run like many other university Web sites: by committee. But right now, KU Facts has no controlling committee, only the remnants of an outdated one. Members of the Gateway Committee continue to oversee KUFacts and the changes that are taking place. More than a year ago, a committee was formed to redesign and reorganize the University of Kansas Web presence, said Lynn Bretz, associate director of University Relations. It was called the Gateway Committee after the common term for the first page of a site. The www.ukans.edu page. Most people involved agreed there were some benefits to having a committee. "We felt like having a University committee would help communication," Bretz said. "We have a working relationship." But Julie Loats, KU Web administrator, doesn't agree. While Loats agreed there was some benefit to a committee, she said sometimes it infringed on her ability to do her job. "I think there has to be a balance. I cannot wait for every change on KUFacts to go through committee, or my job would never happen, and I also don't think that's why I was hired," Loats said. "I was hired because I have ability and an expertise and experience in the field." Now Loats' position depends on an inadequately formed committee and its insistence or lack of micro-management. "I think KUFacts ought to have a resource for students current and here today. That's really the nature of the Web. It's changing.It's dynamic." Julie Loats KU Web administrator When the original purpose of the Gateway committee was finished, the committee continued to meet. However, without a purpose or mission, Bretz said the committee dissolved into inaction. "We kind of served our purpose," she said. "The University is ready for the next stage." That committee's focus and purpose are up in the air. The question rests on what the purpose of KUFacts is. University Relations sees it as more than just a tool for KU students and faculty. "It serves a lot of functions," said Liz Caldwell, network coordinator of University Relations. "It is an information resource for those of us in the University. But in some cases it is the primary view people may have of the University of Kansas. Certainly we would like to have a hand in it. The way this University is viewed is something that is very important to us." Loats agrees the site serves different purposes. But looking toward the future, she said the site's focus needed to change. "It needs to be categorized better. The kind of information a parent wants vs. students here vs. potential students are very different," she said. "If I were a current student, I'd like to be able to get on here and see a calendar of today's events." "I think KUFacts ought to have a resource for students current and here today. That's really the nature of the Web. It's changing. It's dynamic," she said.

The sixth annual Candles and Carols will begin at 7:15 p.m. The service is sponsored by Canterbury House, University Christian Fellowship, United Methodist Ministries and Ecumenical Christian Ministries. Canterbury House is a student living organization sponsored by Episcopalian and Lutheran ministries. Thad Holcombe, director of Ecumenical Christian Ministries, said the service would feature student musicians and student readers. He said students would read scriptures and sing carols between each reading. The songs will also be accompanied by violin, flute and piano players. "We are trying to offer a service that is specifically connected to Christmas," Holcombe said. "The Canterbury Chapel is also a beautiful place to hold it." The service will be held in the St. Anselm Chapel in the house. Holcombe said the service would consist of several readings that discuss the traditional story of Christmas, from Christ's birth through the Epiphany. Holcombe said the service also would feature the lighting of the candles on the Advent wreath. The service will be followed by a reception. He said the event had been successful during the past few years. Attendance has ranged from 20 to 80 people. Christmas Kumbayah 6th Annual Candles and Carols: When: 7:15 tonight in the St. Anselm Chapel at the Canterbury House, 1116 Louisiana St. What: A non-denominational religious service with readings about the traditional story of Christmas and songs. There will also be a lighting of the Advent candles. The service will be followed by a reception. The service is open to the public. For more information call Ecumenical Christian Ministries, 842.4933 Connie Lunn, administrative assistant for the Ecumenical Christian Ministries, said she thought students had enjoyed the event in the past. "It's an early Christmas thing for students," she said. "It's a tradition for the campus ministries to hold it every year, and students find it helpful, especially before finals." Clark Mitchell, Arkadelphia, Ark., senior and Canterbury House administrator, said the service was open to all denominations. "It's an ecumenical event that we've done over the last few years," he said. "It's semitraditional, but it doesn't follow any set religious division." Mitchell said he hoped the service would give students a chance to celebrate the coming holidays and help them get through the weeks before the break. "We're hoping that this can be kind of a pre-final celebration of Advent," he said. "All of our churches celebrate Advent, and this is the season of Advent. It's the time of quiet meditative anticipation before Christmas." Fruitcake with a different taste defies the tradition of dreaded Yuletide gift Rv Ann Pramer apremer@kansan.com Kansan staff writer Fruitcake — a traditionally despised Christmas gift — is making a comeback in Lawrence. Don and Maria Martin began making fruitcakes in Lawrence in 1995. They revived a famous family recipe originally used by Don Martin's grandfather, Carl Drake, who owned Drake's Bakery. The store opened on Massachusetts Street in 1928 and closed in the late 1970s. Maria Martin, who also works as the public relations coordinator for the Anthropology Museum, said her husband convinced her to help him make a batch of fruitcakes to prove that his grandfather's recipe made a tasty cake. "I told him, 'People don't really eat fruitcake. do they?" she said. After she tried the fruitcake, she was conviced her husband was right. They gave fruitcakes to their family members as gifts and later decided to put the fruitcake on the market. The fruitcakes are sold primarily in stores in northeast Kansas and Kansas City, Mo. This year the cakes are being distributed nationwide through mail-order sales. "It's nice to bring back something that was a Lawrence tradition," Maria Martin said. Gunda Hiebert, co-owner of The Bay Leaf, 725 Massachusetts St., said she had carried Drake's fruitcake in her store for three years. "It's one of those fruitcakes that people don't regive," Hiebert said. "People actually eat it." BUTTER CHEESE Hiebert said the store sold more than 300 fruitcakes during the holiday season. Deb Jennings, Bay Leaf employee, said even people who usually hated fruitcake liked Drake's fruitcake. Common ingredients in fruitcake include cherries, pineapple, dates, pecans and raisins. Drake's recipe leaves out the traditional liquor and citron — the two ingredients that Hlebert said result in the taste that people generally don't like in fruitcake. Siohban Doran, executive assistant at Walgreens Drug Store, 400 W. 23rd St., said the store sold about three fruitcakes each week. She said even though it wasn't a big seller, the store carried it for those who wanted it. Doran said that she had tried fruitcake and didn't like it. "I don't eat fruitcake at all," Doran said. "It's like bread with a bunch of lumps in it. It's really sweet." Vacated residence halls should be safe from thefts if students follow housing security safety hints By Sarah McWilliams mcwilliams@kansan.com Kanson staff writer Kansan staff writer When the majority of the 4,486 residents who live in KU campus residence halls, scholarship halls and Jayhawker Towers take off for the winter break, they won't have to worry about the safety of their stuff, housing officials said. "Generally the tradition has been that once a room has been locked it's pretty well secure," said Fred McElhenie, associate director of student housing. McElhenie said that during winter break last year there were some isolated incidents of theft at residence halls but that they generally were uncommon. The most notable of these incidents occurred on New Year's Eve and New Year's Day in McColm Hall when someone flooded the basement, damaged an elevator and stole master keys to the building. Total damages for this isolated incident was estimated at $11,000. McElhenie said he could not comment further on last year's incident. To deter thefts, McElhenie said, housing security staff informs students to lock their doors behind them when they leave. As soon as the halls close on Dec. 18, the staff in the department will make their annual room checks. Lewis and McCollum halls will remain open during the break so international students can live there. Stouffer Place apartments will remain open. In other residence halls, security staff will check rooms once to make sure that the heat is turned down to low and that the windows are closed, McElhenie said. After that, all outside entrances to the halls are locked. The staff will make sure that students have left electrical appliances like televisions and compact disc players unplugged to prevent fire hazards. to come back and find a deceased creature floating at the top of its owl. The housing department has had only isolated incidents of theft in the past year, McElhennie said. He said that although housing staff numbers are more limited during the break, the custodial and maintenance workers in the department work right up until Christmas and keep an eye on the buildings. If someone were caught vandalizing or stealing, the department of student housing would take punishments on a case-by-case basis, he said. The department would also notify the KU police, McElhenie said. "If we catch someone it would be a pretty severe sanction." he said. "If we catch someone it would be a pretty severe sanction," he said. Jayhawker Towers will reopen on Jan. 5. Residence and scholarship halls will reopen Jan. 7.

Fall 1995 to Spring 1996 Section A · Page 9 The University Daily Kansan Tuesday, December 9, 1997 Cold war isn't abating in North and South Korea Plight of families separated by war meets indifference The Associated Press SEOUL, South Korea — A South Korean woman flew to China for a chance to stand at the Yalu River and wave to North Korean relatives on the other side. A middle-aged man tracked two brothers through an underground network, confirmed they were still alive in the communist-ruled north but found out little else about them. Many of the estimated 5 million These are the lucky ones. Koreans who fled the north just after World War II or during the 1950-53 Korean War — and an equal number of relatives left behind — have gone to their graves without ever hearing of their parents, brothers, sisters or children again. Many now are in their 70s and "We cannot afford to lose hope, even though there's hardly a ray of hope," said Cho Dong-young, 72, secretary-general of the Korean Assembly for the Reunion of 10 Million Separated Families. Many now are in their 70s and 80s. Cho fled North Korea with a brother in 1947, leaving his parents and five siblings. Three years ago, he also traveled through China to the Yalu, which is the Chinese-North Korean border, and hired a contact to search his hometown for The contact came back saying Cho was too late — the family had moved. his family. "The whole world sympathizes with the agony of separated families." Cho said. But no one seems able to do much about it, he added. The North Korean government opposes reunions. South Korea's leaders are ambivalent about them. The rest of the world has more pressing issues —such as reining in North Korea's nuclear program — when it comes to dealing with the isolated and hostile Stalinist regime in Pyongyang. More than four decades after an armistice halted the Korean War, North Korea and South Korea maintain one of the last Cold War face-offs. Officially still at war, they are separated by the world's most heavily fortified border— with nearly 2 million soldiers at the ready. North Koreans reportedly have been imprisoned, persecuted or, at the least, branded as suspect if their relatives escaped to the south. South Koreans are barred from communicating with or visiting northerners without their government's approval or without reporting the contact within seven days. Approval is rarely given. The difference between the two is that Pyongyang seems to want to ignore the problem of divided families Seoul's policy is often self-defeating. On one hand, it encourages the Red Cross to push for reunions as a humanitarian policy, then virtually blocks contacts between relatives in pursuing its political and security policies. The restrictions are written into espionage laws designed to foil North Korea's penchant for infiltrations, bombings and assassinations and to clamp down on South Koreans who might intentionally or accidentally aid the enemy through contacts with North Koreans. Seoul says its records show that in the last nine years about 130 South Koreans have arranged meetings with northern relatives in a third country and about 4,000 have written to their relatives. That is believed to vastly understate the number of Koreans who actually have made contacts. Some people use ethnic Koreans in China and the United States to communicate with relatives in the north. Others pay underground contacts and message-passing networks. Underground contacts in China reportedly charge $500-$1,000 to look for relatives in North Korea, a cost too high for some of South Korea's low-income or elderly citizens. So while lacking an overall solution on divided families, South Korea's National Assembly recently budgeted about $53,000 to help defray the costs. The tiny appropriation would provide roughly $225 each, for a maximum of 235 people next year, with each case presumably to be studied for political and security consequences as they are now. Officials decline to discuss details of the program. "This is very delicate." one noted. Newborn baby survives liver transplant The Associated Press LONDON — A 5-day-old baby who received a new liver — cut down to one-eighth of its original size — has become the world's youngest liver transplant patient. Dark-haired Baebhen Schuttk, born with a disease that killed her two brothers, laughed and gurgled yesterday through a news conference called to announce the operation. "She's just like any normal baby. It's almost easy to forget how close we came to losing her," said her Irish mother, Ita. Ita Schuttke, 30, and her German husband, Jurgen, 33, were referred to King's College Hospital in London, the largest transplant center for children in Europe, after the death of their sons due to liver problems. Two days after her birth in Dublin, Baebhen was diagnosed with the same condition, neonatal hemochromatosis, which causes a buildup of iron in the liver. She was flown by air ambulance to King's College Hospital. There, doctors told the Schuttkes there was a chance for Baebhen. And on the fifth day of her life, the family of a 10-year-old boy who died outside London gave permission for the liver transplant. "This is the youngest child to get a liver transplant because she was lucky enough to get a donor," said Mohammed Rela, the surgeon who led a 20-member medical team that performed the six-hour operation in July. During the surgery at King's College Hospital, one group of doctors took two hours to prepare a 4-inch by 3-inch section of liver for the transplant. Other doctors removed Baebhen's diseased liver. The cut-down liver still was slightly too big for the 6-pound infant, hospital spokesman Nick Samuels said, and for a few days the wound was left open while the liver adjusted to the size of the patient. "She has done very well, and the liver is now adapting to her body and is growing normally. She will not need another transplant when she is older." Rela said. Pa, the biggest pediatric transplant center in the United States, said the youngest baby given a liver transplant there was two weeks old. Even younger children have received heart transplants. Canadian Paul Holc, now age 10, received a heart at Loma Linda University Children's Hospital in California three hours after birth. The Children's Hospital in Pittsburgh, Infants are good candidates for transplants — for the first 30 days of life, a baby's immune system is too immature to detect foreign bodies, reducing the risk of rejection. Baebhen — whose name is Gaelic for "sweet, beautiful woman and melodious" — now takes a light dose of anti-rejection drugs. The Schuttkes also have an elder daughter who is 5 years old, Aodhbha, who was born healthy. "We want to thank them (the doctors) from the bottom of our hearts," Ita Schuttke said. "Because the donor is anonymous, it is impossible to thank them for what they have done. But we would like to give our heartfelt gratitude to donors of all organs." Study says Brazilian police need reform Report cites links between violence and police forces The Associated Press WASHINGTON—Brazilian police forces require widespread reform to curb repeated instances of violence and other abuses, the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights said in a report released yesterday. The commission said the number of deaths in Rio de Janeiro attributed to police with links to the Brazilian military averaged 20 per month last year. It said one battalion that covers slum areas was responsible for a third of the deaths. The commission also said the number of deaths in civilian confrontations with the military-affiliated police was triple the number injured by them, a reversal of normal patterns. "This is evidence of the use of excessive force and even shows a pattern of extrajudicial executions by the Rio de Janeiro police," the report said. As a result of these abuses, public confidence in the police in Rio is at a very low ebb, the study said, noting that only 12 percent of robbery victims reported the incident to police. The report said there have been instances in which officers guilty of victimizing suspects have been rewarded. It cited one case in which a corporal was decorated and elected "Officer of the Year" even though he had been accused in 49 assassinations. The colonel who awarded the medal was accused of 44 murders in his 24 years on the force, the report said. It said police authorities routinely cover up violence perpetrated by individual officers In many Brazilian states, according to the study, death squads have acted with impunity, eliminating poor youth and suspected criminals in urban areas and community and labor union leaders in rural areas. The report was partly based on an in-country study by commission members two years ago and on a follow-up visit last July. Titled "Report on the Situation of Human Rights in Brazil," the study covers 1988 to early 1997. A copy of the report was sent to the Brazilian government. It offered a specific unpublished comment, which will be included in a final version of the study. The commission's recommendations include: Rigorous internal inspections to identify and discipline police officers who commit violations or fail to take the appropriate measures to prevent or report the criminal conduct of other officers. Officers accused of homicide should be transferred to positions in which they do not use firearms until they prove their innocence. Establishment of a permanent commission to investigate possible extermination squads and vigilante groups. Changes in the investigation process so that members of a division or district are not appointed to investigate abuses by members of the same division. More work still awaits Senators Continued from page 1A Also on the legal side, Senate created a judicial board to hear disputes among students, student organizations and Senate. The board also will interpret Senate's Rules and Regulations. "I think it will mainly be useful for Senate-related questions," said Jason Fizell, Rights committee member. "Senate's Rules and Reqs can be very unclear." Fizell cited the recent disputes about whether Senate should be involved in the establishment of a Daisy Hill polling site as an example. The Judicial Board will be formed next school year. Aside from Senate, Scott Sullivan, student body president, did most of the work to get a course-content proposal for students passed in University Council. The guide, which will most likely be online, will allow students to check a professor's teaching style, course requirements, the cost of the texts and the size of classes among other factors. Sullivan said the guide most likely would be available for the next school year. As far as transportation is concerned, Senate approved a $2 increase to the transportation fee to maintain and improve Saferide services. Scott Kaiser, KU on Wheels coordinator, said that expanding hours and adding Saferide vehicles were main goals. The transportation board also made the nighttime buses free. Despite improvements, campus safety remains an issue. "I think there are a lot of issues of campus safety that Saferide doesn't address," Fizell said. "That still needs to be addressed." Senate created a forum to address that and other issues. Senate's online listserv is up and running. So far it hasn't served many people not affiliated with Senate, but Kelly Huffman, Student Executive Committee chairman, said efforts such as the Senate Web page would help to reach non-Senators. "We're going to try and get the word out about what we're doing better than we have been doing." Huffman said. More information about Senators and the executive staff, how to get involved in Senate and committees, meeting and committee minutes, legislation and issues, Senate Rules and Regulations, Student Rights and Responsibilities and information on how to st. rt student organizations will be components of the completed Web page, Huffman said. Tests right before finals not allowed Continued from page 1A Rick Snyder, professor of psychology, agreed. Snyder, however, petitioned the committee to allow him to give a test during the last week of class before the finals period. He was turned down. "In retrospect, I can see where the board was coming from," he said. "It wouldn't be fair for students to have to take several finals during the last week of class." Snyder moved his test forward a week so that he was not in defiance of the rule. Both inquiries fell within the rules. Jeannette Johnson, assistant to the provost, said she received questions about this particular rule from both an instructor and a student last week. Both inquiries fell within the rules. Johnson said some reasons for an exam being scheduled during the last week of classes without a corresponding final were because a professor was new to the University and unaware of the rule or because the professor wanted to end the semester early. Daniel Bays, professor and chair of the history department, said the department reminded faculty of the rule. He said he had not received any student complaints during the last two semesters, but if a student had a serious complaint about exam schedules, the department might have to ask faculty members to change the test.

Barcomb Special to the Kansan Casey Schirk, Lawrence junior, plays pool with his little brother, Travis Cain, at Jaybowl. Schijk volunteers for big gamers/Bigisters of Douglas County. The two try to get together about once a week. Photo by Roger Nomer/KANSAN Wedged between a sporting goods store and a bar at 733 Massachusetts St., Big Brothers/Big Sisters of Douglas Co. Inc. is a haven for children amidst a very grown-up world. With the assistance of paid employees and volunteers, Big Brothers/Big Sisters matches children from single-parent homes ages 5 to 17 with a mentor for about a year. Casey Schirk, Lawrence junior, was a volunteer driver for the Jaycees this summer when the organization took unmatched children in the program to Worlds of Fun. Travis was one of those children, and the two hit it off. Travis Cain, a 14-year-old from Lawrence, is one such child helped by the Douglas County program, which made its first match in 1991. Unlike most matches, however, Travis' most recent match was a matter of coincidence. That wouldn't be as easy as it might seem. Travis' previous big brother, whom he had been with for five and a half years, had recently moved. Travis and Schirk then discussed the option of becoming a match. According to Mary Beth Karlin, co-executive director of the Douglas County branch, extensive background checks are run on potential big brothers and sisters. The process takes four to six weeks. It entails an informational meeting, a psychological test, four references, three levels of investigation including the Kansas Bureau of Investigation, the Department of Motor Vehicles and the Child Abuse Network, a home visit and a one hour interview in the office. "If someone sticks it out through that, they're probably going to be a good match." Karlin said. After that comes the fun part. Recently, Travis and Schirk went on their first outing. They grabbed a drink at McDonalds, looked for some new shoes for Schirk and stopped by the Jaybowl in the Kansas Union. "A lot of what I plan to do is guy stuff," Schirk said. "That's the best thing about this program. You don't have to find a specific activity. It's whatever I'm doing that day." Travis' mother, Connie Cain, appreciates the activities Schirk does because Travis' father lives out of town. She said she thought the program benefited Travis, who has been involved in the program for seven years. "I'd been divorced, and I felt he needed male guidance," Cain said. "I didn't want him to sit around and do nothing." Sitting around and doing nothing is not usually an option for college students who often have hectic schedules. But Karlin said about 80 percent of the volunteers were college students. She attributed this to an adult community which is generally busy with full-time jobs. "A lot of classes push volunteerism. A lot of them miss their siblings at home. In fact, a lot of the community people think all we work with are college students," Karlin said. Although volunteers can be of any age older than 18. Karlin said it was good for the children to be exposed to college students. Cain hopes Travis will learn from Schirk's dedication to school. "The idea of going to school might have some kind of an impact because he will know Casey on a personal level. He'll see "This guy is going for something he really wants,"" she said. Big Brothers/Big Sisters employs workers like Karlin who find matches for the children, as well as utilizing volunteers to solicit funding and run the office. The organization also plays host for interns from the University of Kansas School of Social Welfare. While the organization cannot provide money for the volunteers, community businesses will sometimes offer special deals so that pairs like Travis and Schirk can afford to do things around town. "A lot of people think that it takes a lot of time. I work and go to school full time," Schirk said. "Instead of spending a couple of hours watching TV, you can hang out with your little brother." [Image of a woman holding a cat in a pet store] Rachel Epp Buller, Lincoln, Neb., graduate student, plays with a kittens at the Lawrence Humane Society. Buller plays with kittens so they can get used to human contact before being adopted. Photo by Dip Dishman/KANSAN Students lend a paw to pets Abandoned animals in need of assistance Kansan staff report KU students who volunteer in Lawrence are not all building houses for the homeless or feeding the hungry. Some volunteer to work with underprivileged animals. About 20 students currently volunteer at the Lawrence Humane Society,1805 E. 19th St., according to Kim Roberts, volunteer director. These students, in addition to about 50 other volunteers, perform a number of services for the animals, mostly as caretakers. Caretakers are responsible for the animals' basic needs, such as feeding and keeping their living areas clean. They also give the animals attention or socialize with them. Volunteers at the center take care of clerical work and help with fund-raising events. Rachel Epp Buller, Lincoln, Neb, graduate student, first volunteered after reading an article about the Humane Society in the paper. She said it bothered her that so few people seemed to take pet ownership seriously, and she thought that by volunteering she could help. "I feel like I'm making a worthwhile contribution," Buller said. "It's a good change of pace for me. a time when I can think about something other than school." All volunteers must take part in a two-part orientation, the first of which takes place at the shelter on the first Thursday of each month. The second session is done by appointment and focuses on the volunteer's main area of interest. Buller said she worked mostly in the nursery now, with the animals that are too young to be adopted. In addition to keeping these animals, which are mostly kittens, clean and healthy, she tries to help them become more socially adapted, making them better candidates for adoption. Banzet works with the shelter's sick animals. She said that although it was not always the most uplifting job, she enjoyed watching animals that had been ill recover enough to be adopted. Roberts said an experienced caretaker stayed with the volunteers to answer questions and to provide assistance when they first started working. Lee Banzet, Mulvane senior, said when she came to Lawrence she decided the Humane Society would be the best way to help animals. Both Banzet and Buller agreed that volunteering could be fit into a busy schedule relatively easily. "As long as you're responsible, it shouldn't be a problem," Banzet said. paper towels bleach blankets and towels cat and dog toys detergent sponges rabbit food 35mm film Polaroid film clippers washer and dryer van or truck The Humane Society allows volunteers mostly to set their own schedules. Buller said she volunteered one day a week. The Humane Society is a nonprofit organization and has contracts with the city and the county to cover most of its operating costs. They accept donations from private businesses and memorial funds as well as those from individuals. Most of the money goes toward the animals' food and medication. Some helps pay the shelter's 12 full-time employees. Volunteer The Humane Society also seeks donations ranging from cleaning products to camera film. Restaurant-style a change from soup kitchens "Every little bit helps," Roberts said. The shelter encourages potential pet owners to check the Humane Society before buying an animal from a pet store or breeder. They also ask that pet owners have all of their pets spayed or neutered. Continued from page 1A Hill said there were fewer than 10 restaurants like it in the country. "It gives guests a sense of dignity and the ability to make choices carries over to their daily lives," she said. The cafe is staffed by about 30 people each Tuesday morning, the majority of whom are students at the University of Kansas. Shifts begin at 6 a.m., and volunteers can work one or more of the three shifts. "I set my alarm for 5 in the morning, as loud as it will go," said Stephanie Sapienza, Kansas City, Kan., junior. "A lot of times I will have my friends call too." Sapienza said she usually cooked when she arrived at 6 a.m. Other duties include setting tables, making coffee and juice and serving as the wait staff. "I remember the first time I sat and ate with a guest," Hill said. "He was talking about doing his laundry in the river and hanging it on a tree to dry. I'd never thought of doing laundry like that before." All volunteers are encouraged to sit down and eat with the guests if they have an opportunity. In addition to the KU students who volunteer at the cafe, others not associated with the University also donate their time. "I'm giving back what the community has given to me. I didn't come from a wealthy family. When you are poor, you learn how to survive. If you focus on the negatives, you won't be successful." Turner said. Turner said he was homeless when he first arrived in Lawrence and was a regular at the Jubilee Cafe. Now, Turner cooks at the Cafe. One such person is Donnell Turner, managerial director at Friends Oread Meeting House. The cafe has been successful since it opened in October of 1994. Three years after its opening, Clark Keffer, Lawrence sophmore and restaurant manager, estimated the cafe had served more than 6,250 meals. Keffer said the cafe remained open during the winter and summer breaks, including Christmas morning if it happened to fall on a Tuesday. The cost to keep the cafe open is about $5,000 per year, which covers the cost of food and supplies. Much of the funding for the cafe comes from the Episcopalian church, and this year, from donations from fraternities and sororites. Clark Mitchell, Lawrence senior, shops every Monday afternoon to restock the kitchen for the next day's breakfast. He said each meal cost about $1, and each week's grocery bill was about $60. "Ialways get funny stares," Mitchell said. "Here I am, this college student, buying all this breakfast stuff. No one ever asks, though." Center provides opportunities for volunteers By Gwen Olson By Gwen Olson golson@kansan.com Kansan staff writer Throughout their years at the University of Kansas, students are encouraged to become involved in activities that help the campus and Lawrence communities. The Center for Community Outreach, the University's volunteer headquarters, heads 12 standing programs. The programs provide a wide range of opportunities for students to get involved in community service. Emily Heath, Oskaloosa senior and co-director for CCO, said if the group continued with its current success, they would have more than 3,500 volunteers by the end of the school year. Alternative Sprina Break Heath said CCO was approached by individuals as well as other campus organizations that wanted to participate in service activities. Alternative Service Branch "Some of those are just one-time service projects," she said. "I'd say continually we have about 700 volunteers." Alternative Spring Break is a program that puts students in inner cities throughout the country during a time when most students are taking vacations. "Anybody can go off for spring break and have a great time, but this is one of the only opportunities people may have to do something like this." Najim said. Jamie Najim, Wichita senior and co-director for CCO, said students work side-by-side with people in the community to help with activities such as cleaning up neighborhoods. Volunteers can choose from sites in Cleveland, El Paso, Texas, Detroit, Philadelphia, Washington, New York and Kirtland, Ohio. Last year Najim said the program had 75 volunteers at nine sites but said a higher concentration of volunteers in fewer sites would be better to assist the community. Concerned. Aware and Active Students Concerned, Aware and Active Students (CAAS) helps inform students about social problems the Lawrence community has. CAAS also organizes CCO's action months. One example of an action month is Hunger and Homelessness month, which is November. Kate Turnbull, Lawrence sophomore and co-coordinator for CAAS, said the program also tried to get students involved in other programs that CCO offered. Campus Volunteer Program The Campus Volunteer Program works specifically with groups that want to participate in a volunteer activity. The program reters students to specific Lawrence or campus agencies that deal with the interests of the group. College Bound The College Bound program matches college students with a fourth-, fifth- or sixth-grade class to help the students understand more about college experiences. Community Internship Program The Community Internship Program allows students to look into career opportunities while working with a local nonprofit agency. Najim said the group targeted schools that had students that would be first-generation college students. Volunteers visit the classes six times, and for the last visit, the students take a tour of campus. Community Interahub Program The Jubilee Cafe, located at Trinity Episcopal Church, 1011 Vermont St., provides breakfast on Tuesday mornings for the homeless and people in need in Lawrence. The internships include paid and nonpaid positions and volunteers are expected to work eight to 10 hours a week for one semester. Cheryl Hill, St. George junior and co-coordinator for the program, said the cafe served people in a restaurant style. "The philosophy is to serve our guests with dignity and respect," she said. "Our goal is to let people make their own choices." Jayhawk Connection Najim said the Jubilee Cafe is one of CCO's most pop ular programs. The Jayhawk Connection provides freshman and transfer students with a list of upperclassmen volunteers who can help them during their first year at the University. René Meyer, liberal senior and co-coordinator for the program, said volunteers gave information about their interests, majors and activities. Natural Ties Natural Ties is an organization that matches student organizations up with a person with a developmental disability to establish a friendship or ties with that person. John Warren, Denver senior and administrative coordinator for the program, said the group worked with 23 KU organizations including fraternities, sororities, scholarship halls and the KU Band. "We work at providing someone with a disability the opportunity to have a friendship with an organization," Warren said. "The ties are adults who work around Lawrence and range in age from 22 to 50 years old." Students Tutoring for Literacy Students Tutoring for Literacy places volunteers at different learning sites in Lawrence to help adults and families with reading skills. Scott Hendrix, Lawrence graduate student and co-coordinator for the program, said he enjoyed working with the program because it was different than teaching his English classes. "It's very sobering to see adults who have only basic reading and writing skills," he said. "It's also a kind of teaching that I don't get to do in the classroom." The program has nine sites in Lawrence that are specialized for specific age groups. Students on Board is a program that helps students get involved on advisory boards of local government and nonprofit agencies. Youth Student Council Youth Student Council The Youth Student Council places students in local elementary schools to help with the school's student councils. school students develop leadership and organizational skills. Youth Volunteer Corps The Youth Volunteer Corps is a program that is being developed this year. Volunteers help children in the community by becoming a group leader. The group leaders work to encourage children to begin serving the community while they are young and give the children opportunities to volunteer.

My perspective already had begun to change, but this trip has been an epiphany equivalent to confirming my detrimental thoughts about Chiefs fans after attending a game at Arrowhead Stadium last month. P I am now convinced that students, staff and alumni at Kansas care about men's basketball more than any other school. There were a couple thousand Kansas fans at both the semifinal defeat Kristie Biasi kblasi@kansan.com Sunday and the consolation game yesterday. The other 14,000 or so fans in the week-old MCI Center were decidedly against Kansas. The Jayhawks first-round opponent has a local following, of course, and every other team in the tournament had easier trips to D.C. than my flight that arrived at 11 p.m. Saturday on which the pilot would not shut up so I could sleep. Between the pilot's speeches, I was reading "Sports Illustrated." It reported that Kentucky basketball fans like new coach Tubby Smith more than the departed Rick Pitino. That's probably smart, I thought. I'm sure he'll be there longer than Pitino was. Nope. Not the reason. Smith is more down-to-earth and huggable. An alum grazed that you had to pay $2,000 to play golf with Pitino in Ireland to get close to him. But why does he need to get close to the coach of his alma mater or favorite team? What purpose does it serve? Because Kansas has "better" fans, I'm sure fanaticism is worse here. Do we need to know what sites the Jayhawks are seeing when they are on the road or even that some players put on their ties before their socks? I don't think so, but I know that people do. I realized this when I noticed that people here don't. And the attendance at the consolation game yesterday resembled the crowd at a women's sporting event in the field house. If you've never seen the crowd at a women's same, that's the point. But the atmosphere at the MCI Center made it clear that these people do not care about Kansas basketball any more than they care about running a red light. Blasel is a Caney senior in journalism and is the sports editor. The MCI Center had about 4,000 spectators short of capacity for even the second first-round game, and even though Allen Field House has not been full since the opening game against Santa Clara, there are never more empty seats than occupied seats. And I'm sure that that is a relief for the players. They get to enjoy relative anonymity here. I know they can't get that on campus. Yesterday's consolation was Kansas' fifth game at a neutral site this season, but the game Sunday was the first time this season the Jayhawks had been booed when taking the court. But it was not just fans of the other team. Walk-on guard Chris Martin is in my accounting lab. After his name was incorrect in the "Kansan," I got three emails that pointed out the error. I hope you are enjoying the last day of classes this semester. I know I'm having such a horrible time watching basketball, playing tourist and going out that I can't wait to return to Lawrence for my final exams. This concludes my travel report and my reign as sports editor. Thanks for reading. Kansas rebounds with a victory Jayhawks win by 18 Robertson dunks By Kristie Blasi By Kristie Blasi kblasi@kansan.com Sports editor Sports editor WASHINGTON - The No. 3 Jayhawks increased their concentration against Pennsylvania after Sunday's loss to Maryland to the consolation game of the Franklin National Bank Classic 89-71 last night at the MCI Center. But the victory did not bring coach Roy Williams much comfort. "It isn't something we want to do very often," Williams said. "We hadn't done it in 10 years, and I hope it's another 10 before it happens again." Kansas opened the game slowly in the first five minutes, making two of eight field goal attempts. But the Jayhawks found an offensive groove in the next five minutes, making eight consecutive shots. Forward Raef LaFrentz scored six of those points and guard Ryan Robertson had the first dunk of his collegiate career. "It was kind of exciting." Robertson said. "I think that's the loudest on bench got all night. I was wide open, and my teammates give me grief if don't dunk." KANSAS 24 MISTLEVANI 5 Despite the surge, Kansas led 22-14 because the Quakers kept pace. They made six consecutive shots in the same time period, including two three-point shots. "You have to give Penn credit because they were not intimidated by Kansas' national ranking," Williams said. "They came out and played their game, which is to penetrate and kick the ball out." Pennsylvania used its ball-control offense to slow the pace of the game. That offensive style is typical of Ivy League schools, but Kansas was able to force 13 turnovers, which helped it to a 6-0 record against Ivy League schools. Guard Billy Thomas made his first three- point shot of the tournament with about 30 seconds remaining in the first half. Thomas missed nine attempts Sunday against Maryland but hit five of eight last night. He finished with 15 points. Williams said he was glad to see Thomas shooting better. "He can't dwell on it too much," Williams said. "You've got to play today's game and not dwell on what happened before or you're going to get your tails whipped again." Williams said the Jahawks had intended to make more of their height advantage — Penn started three guards, and its starting front-court players are 6-foot-6 and 6-foot-8. "Raef and Paul did a good job of getting inside, but (forward) T.J. (Pugh) took two three-pointers and (center) Eric (Chenowith) was taking 15-foot turnaround jumpers." Williams said. Kansas' frontcourt again paced the Jayhawks in scoring. LaFrentz, who was named to the All-Tournament Team along with forward Paul Pierce, had game-highs of 25 points and 11 rebounds. Pierce scored 14 points, and Pugh had a career-high 13. His previous high of 12 came against Ivy League opponent Brown on Jan. 7. The victory improved Kansas to 9-1 on the season. The Quakers are now 3-4. I sit feel like we are the best team in the tournament," LaFrentz said. "I'm disappointed that we were not playing in the championship game." No. 19 Maryland, defending tournament champion, lost the championship game to George Washington 66-70 last night. Other members of the All-Tournament Team include Maryland forward Rodney Elliott, Maryland guard LaRon Profit and George Washington guard Shawna Rogers. Right Forward Paul Pierce hangs from the rim after a dunk against Pennsylvania. Pierce had 14 points, eight rebounds, three assists and two blocked shots in the game.

The Jayhawks will play their fifth game in nine days at 8:37 tomorrow night when they take on the Massachusetts Minutemen. Kansas may play as many as 18 games by the end of this month, which concerns coach Roy Williams. "Having practice or playing a game doesn't tire us out as much as when you start adding up those airplane rides," Williams said. "The team wanted to play as many as they could. But it is something that I am concerned about, and I'll try to keep them as fresh as possible." In an effort to keep the Jayhawks from tiring out, Williams scheduled no practices or game films in preparation for Emporia State on Thursday. And Kansas used just one day to prepare for No. 23 Maryland, which outran the Jayhawks 86-83 on Sunday. After its game against Pennsylvania last night, Kansas now will have just one day to prepare for the Minutemen. UMass is led by center Lari Ketner, who averages 17.6 points and 8.6 rebounds per game. And forward Tyrone Weeks strengthens the frontcourt with 13.8 points and 11.2 rebounds. But the backcourt features players that UMass coach James "Bruiser" Flint said are inexperienced or out of position. Flint considers point guard Monty Mack a shooting guard but said Mack had adapted well to the position. And freshman guard Jonathan DinaPina had played more than 15 minutes per game, but averages just 2.6 points and 1.2 rebounds. Flint, who has never been to Allen Field House, said he was eager about this particular road trip. He has heard stories about the field house from each of his three assistant coaches, all of whom have either played or coached there in the past. "From what I hear, it's the greatest place to play," Flint said. "And they have two of the best players in the country with Raef LaFrentz and Paul Pierce. I just hope we come out and play hard because I don't know what Kansas is going to do." Flint said the Minutemen will have to play a fundamentally sound game if they hope to defeat Kansas. "We need to rebound, play good defense and take care of the ball when on offense," Flint said. "If we can do that, we have given ourselves a chance to win." Women's basketball feels finals crunch NATIONALS Six games await team during break By Penny Walker sports@kansen.com Kansas sportwriter The Kansas women's basketball team can dribble, but during the next few weeks, it is going to be asked to juggle finals, practice and games. As students are winding down their semesters, the 5-1 Jayhawks still have one game left before the end of finals and five more games during winter break. With finals beginning Thursday, that can lead to a schedule crunch. "I personally work to accommodate special situations so they Left: Guard Shandy Robbins guards a Coppin State player during their game. Kansas defeated Coppin State and opens its Big 12 Conference schedule during winter break. Photo by Geoff Krieger/ KANSAN don't feel pressured with study groups or anything special in the way of projects they might have," coach Marian Washington said. Washington's main concern is not finals but the winter break that comes after. Most students are looking forward to three weeks of vacation, but the Kansas women's basketball team has less than a week — and the players are lucky to get that. "Some programs will give (their players) a couple weeks off between semesters," Washington said. "It's just something that I don't do. I think three or four days at the most is about all that I'm real comfortable with. You just have to hope that they're going to stay disciplined." Because guard Jennifer Jackson is a freshman, this winter break This year's five-day break has Washington a little concerned about the players' performance when they face Oregon on the road Dec. 29. Holiday feasts and indugences take on new meaning when a person has to be running down a basketball court a few days later. will be the first she spends with the team. But she said it would not be bad if it were anything like Thanksgiving break, when the Jayhawks played three away games. "I'm going to tell you, the weirdest thing was Thanksgiving because we obviously didn't get to go home for Thanksgiving because we went from Pennsylvania straight to Iowa," Jackson said. "You call home, and your family's all there, and it's just like you miss that for iust a second. "But one of the things that was so great was when we had our Thanksgiving meal and everybody's there together, it really did feel like, even though you weren't with your first family, it was like we were with our second," she said. For the semester's last game, the Jayhawks will face Arkansas State at 2 p.m. Sunday in Allen Field House. Two games during winter break will be televised; the Dec. 20 Sprint Shootout against Missouri-Kansas City on Jayhawk TV and the Jan. 10 game against Nebraska on Fox Sports. 1 2B At the game Tuesday December 9,1997 ASS 0 RADIO. **Above:** Guard Kenny Gregory reaches for the ball as he gets tripped up by Penn's Matt Langel. **Right:** Guard Billy Thomas looks to pass while Pennsylvania's Matt Langel watches.

They shoot, they block, they make the Fieldhouse rock. They are the two big men at Kansas. They are the twin towers of Jayhawk basketball. They are Raef LaFrentz and Eric Chenowith. At first glance, the two might look remarkable alike. They're really tall. LaFrentz weighs in at 6'11" and 235 lbs. Add an inch and you have Chenowith. They tower over everyone else on the team. They tower over the majority of their opponents too. In fact, the tower over just about everybody. LaFrentz and Chenowith don't look so big on television. They don't look so tall from the stands in Allen Fieldhouse. But stand next to one of them while waiting for the bus, or walk near one of them on the way to class, and when you only come up to their bellybuttons, you'll understand. They're really tall. And not only that, LaFrentz and Chenowith are among the premier college basketball players in the country. Playing for Kansas, LaFrentz and Chenowith are members of the third-ranked team in the nation, a team whose first loss of the season did not come until it's ninth game. By the way, they're really tall. And the two towers know how to play the game. LaFrentz keeps working his way up the list of all-time leading scorers at Kansas. He makes the midrange jump shot look so smooth and simple. Chenowith's shot is still developing, but it shows signs of being just as smooth as as anything LaFrentz has ever put up. OWERING OVER THE COMPETITION They each earned McDonald's All American honors as high school seniors. Last year, LaFrentz was awarded first team All-American honors and this year he was chosen as one of five preseason All-Americans. But to the fans, the first thing that anyone notices about these two, is their height. It's like a double take re-run of the Shaquille O'Neal Pepsi commercial, where O'Neal is too tall for everything. He runs into the tops of doorways and rips through the tops of convertible Corvettes. But just try and tell LaFrentz and Chenow that they are too tall. They'd probably just look down at you, smile and say 'that's ok'. 'We're big, we're tall, we dunk, we slam, we shoot, and we block. But most of all, we make Allen Fieldhouse rock. Design—Lindsay Haynes & Amy Slotemaker Photos—Steve Puppe & Geoff Krieger Story—Amy Slotemaker What's New at Mill Creek?

When Randy Moss showed up at Florida State, coach Bobby Bowden was almost giddy about his new wide receiver. "He can run, he can jump, but what he does best is run like a scaled dog," Bowden said before Moss ran afoul of the law and was kicked off the team A year and another school later, Moss has not stopped running. And no one can catch him. "Nobody in America can cover him," Ball State coach Bill Lynch said after Moss caught five touchdown passes in Marshall's 42-16 victory against the Cardinals. The only sophomore among this year's Heisman Trophy candidates, Moss set the Division I-A single-season mark with 25 receiving touchdowns — five covering 70 yards or more — and has caught 90 passes for 1,647 yards to set a Mid-American Conference record. In two seasons, he has scored 53 touchdowns for Marshall. "He's doing this with people putting triple coverage on him," Marshall coach Bob Pruett said. "They doubled and triple-teamed Randy, but he always seems to find a way to make big plays." At 6-foot-5. Moss is taller than most defensive backs. And he is faster, with a 4.25 time in the 40-yard-dash. Moss also has an impressive 39-inch vertical leap and huge hands with tentaclelike fingers that rarely drop passes. But Moss said he would rather watch the Heisman Trophy ceremony Dec. 13 on his living room television than in person. He is one of four players invited to New York for the ceremony. Moss' college career was almost before it began. One of West Virginia's most celebrated high school athletes, Moss was headed to Notre Dame. But the Irish revoked the scholarship after he was charged with attacking another student at DuPont High School. Moss pleaded guilty to battery and was sentenced to 30 days in jail. He was allowed to defer most of the sentence until after his freshman year in college. Florida State was quick to roll out the welcome mat, but a year later rolled it back up when Moss violated his probation by smoking marijuana. A one-year jail sentence was reduced a month later to time served after he completed algebra and speech communications classes in a work-study program. Although Moss never played at Florida State, Bowden was well aware of his talent. "He's just got so many tools, limitless tools," the coach said after watching Moss practice. After his release from jail, Moss walked on at Marshall and scored 28 touchdowns, leading the Thundering Herd to the Division I-AA championship with a 15-0 record. This season, Marshall (10-2) returned to Division I-A after a 28-year absence and will face Mississippi in the Motor Cowl Bank on Dec. 26. But can a wide receiver in the MAC win the Heisman? For that matter, can a wide receiver from any school win it? The last receiver to win it was Michigan's Desmond Howard in 1991. "If the Heisman Trophy is for the best college player who does the most for his team, I think Randy deserves a shot," said Marshall quarterback Chad Pennington. "When the offense needs a big play, he's going to make one almost every time." Nonetheless, the award is expected to go to players at higher-profile programs such as Tennessee's Peyton Manning, Michigan's Charles Woodson, or Ryan Leaf at Washington State. In fact, he's weary of answering questions about it. "This Heisman thing is not so big to me. If the trophy comes, great, I mean, if it wouldn't hurt anybody's feelings, I'd watch on TV. I never really did set any individual goals for myself." Cleveland nabs Lofton for three years Indians also get three pitchers in trade agreement The Associated Press CLEVELAND — In a stunning turnaround, the Cleveland Indians signed Kenny Lofton Sunday and traded Marquis Grissom and pitcher Jeff Juden to Milwaukee for three pitchers including Ben McDonald. Lofton, Cleveland's career steals leader who played for the Indians from 1992-96, agreed to a $24 million, three-year contract with his former team. He will get $7.5 million in each of the next three seasons, and Cleveland has an option for 2001 at a minimum of $8 million and a maximum of $9 million, depending on his performance. If the option is not exercised, Cleveland must pay a $1.5 million buyout. In addition, the Indians agreed to a two-year deal with pitcher Dwight Gooden worth $5.675 million. Cleveland got Lofon for significantly less than the four-year deal worth about $40 million he rejected last year. Grissom, acquired with David Justice from Atlanta for Alan Embree and Lofton on March 25, was sent to the Brewers for McDonald and relievers Ron Villone and Mike Fetters, according to baseball sources who spoke on the condition they not be identified. The move reunited Lofton, a four-time Gold Glove and five-time AL stolen base champion, with the team; he led to the World Series in 1995. Cleveland traded Lofton, 30, late i n spring training because t the y we are afraid h e would s l g n w i t another B1 team after the 1997 season. The speedy leadoff hitter had an injury-plagued, sub-par year with Braves, hitting .333 with only 27 steals. Grissom and Justice led the Indians to the World Series for the second time in three years, taking leadership roles on a club whose personality made a complete reversal from the volatile days dominated by Albert Belle. The unlikely reunion of Lofton and the Indians effectively reduces the blockbuster Cleveland-Atlanta trade to this: The Indians gave up Embree for Justice, and got three pitchers on top of that. The Braves have no regrets because the deal allowed them to clear money to sign the best starting rotation in baseball to long-term contracts. McDonald, a 6-foot-7-inch power pitcher known for a big-breaking curveball, was 8-7 with a 4.06 ERA for the Brewers last season but made only 21 starts because of shoulder injuries. K-State football, fans place team in Fiesta The Associated Press TEMPE, Ariz. — Kansas State fans have a history of following their football team to bowl games in drives. That's just what the Fiesta Bowl had in mind Sunday when it matched the 10th-ranked Wildcats against No. 14 Syracuse. "We knew we were going to take a Big East team with our No. 6 pick in the alliance," said Frazier. "When we looked at the potential matchups, Syracuse against Kansas State was the best for us." C "When Syracuse last played here against Colorado, they brought about 6,000 to 7,000 fans. I think he'll add lot more this time." The game will be the first: football meeting between the schools. It'll be the first Flesta appearance for Kansas State and the second for Syracuse, which defeated Colorado 26-22 in 1993. Kansas State (10-1) won its rinal seven games after losing at Nebraska 56-26 on Oct.4. Syracuse (9-3) won its last eight games, including a 33-13 victory at Miami on Nov. 20 to take its first outright Big East championship. "Our players are very excited about it and very deserving of it," Kansas State bill Bill Snyder said. "People around the country will have a chance see our team play." "The last time we were on national television was against Nebraska. Hopefully, we'll have a better performance than that." Snyder is worried about containing Orangemen quarterback Donovan McNabb, the Big East's Offensive Player of the Year. "He's a force to be reckoned with. A tremendous quarterback," Snyder said. "Overall, Syracuse is playing very well right now." Nebraska's title shot is not looking so rosy The Associated Press LINCOLN, Neb. — Nebraska coach Tom Osborne is answering the questions before he even hears them. Yes, it would be better if his second-ranked team could play No. 1 Michigan for the national title. And yes, his Cornhuskers have a lot of work to do before they face Peyton Manning and No. 3 Tennessee in the Orange Bowl on Jan. 2. N Huskers But don't worry, he will answer them all. Again. became Nebraska's coach in 1973, the Huskers are going to the Orange Bowl. Osborne is 3-7 in those games, but three yeas ago was the charm — a 24-17 win against Miami that gave him his first of two consecutive national titles. "Nothing much is going to change between now and Jan. 2, unless somebody gets hurt in practice," Osborne said Sunday. "By the time Jan. 2 comes around, a lot of the same questions will have been asked hundreds of times." Osborne's a veteran of the postseason media blitz. For the 11th time since he "I have a lot of memories of Miami, good and bad," Osborne said. "I think our players have been accustomed to going there, staying on the beach. It's kind of traditional almost." Nebraska is set for a record 17th appearance in the Orange Bowl — the Huskers first played there in 1955, losing 37-7 to Duke. Coach Bob Devaney, Osborne's old boss, won both of his national titles there in 1971 and 1972. Six of those Orange Bowls had national title implications for at least one of the teams, but it will take a loss by No.1 Michigan in the Rose Bowl to make that a reality this year. The Etc.

The poll had the same 25 teams as last week, although losses by Vanderbilt and Virginia caused some shuffling in the Top 10. Not at the top. Never. Tennessee (9-0) received all 38 first-place votes from a national media panel after winning by margins of 34, 32 and 50 points in the past week. The last two victories were at a tournament in New York, a trip arranged so All-American Chamique Holdswclaw could play before a hometown audience. Old Dominion (7-0), Connecticut (8-0) and Louisiana Tech (4-2) remained in the next three spots, with Tech holding on at No. 4 despite Sunday's 88-65 loss to Old Dominion. Louisiana Tech's other loss was to Tennessee. three weeks. The Lady Vols have been No.1 all season and have collected every first-place vote the last There was a big dropoff in points after the top three. Tennessee received 950, Old Dominion 907 and Connecticut 878. Louisiana Illinois (4-1), which has lost only to Old Dominion, advanced one spot to fifth and was followed by North Carolina, Texas Tech, Arizona, Vanderbilt and Florida. Tech had 784 points. Vanderbilt dropped three places after losing at Washington. Arizona and Florida each jumped three spots, with Arizona cracking the Top Ten for the first time. The Wildcats had never been ranked before this season. Duke jumped four places to 11th, and a loss to unranked Georgia Tech dropped Virginia from ninth to 12th. Then it was Nebraska, Western Kentucky, Georgia and Auburn, followed by Wisconsin, Stanford, Washington and Tulane. Colorado, North Carolina State, Alabama, Arkansas and Stephen F.

MEADOWBROOK 15th & Crestline Mon.-Fri. 8-5:30 Sat 10-4 Sun 1-4 10B Quick Looks Tuesday December 9,1997 HOROSCOPES Today's birthday (Dec. 9) This week is full of stress. Start out by getting everything done. Take your time and don't let things get you down. Aries: Today is a 7. Taurus: Today is a 4. Today you are Peter Pan leading the Lost Bones on the adventure of a lifetime. It would certainly help if you did adult things like planning ahead and packing accordingly. Pure vision only takes you so far. Gemini: Today is a 7. Are you The Ugli Duckling today, or is it just someone else singing your swan song for you? Another person's aggressive behavior makes your life difficult. Animal reactions may have to take the place of social skills. This is a good day for communicating your ideas and planning for the future. You get people's attention, even if you are voicing an unpopular sentiment. Everyone has the right to her opinion. Cancer: Today is a 7. Make the most of your heightened emotions by spending time with someone who feels the same way. Conduct a meeting of the souls in a quiet, safe place. The cruel world doesn't have to cross your threshold. Leo: Today is an 8. You notice that a romance has turned into a relationship. There are certain responsibilities that come with permanence. Compromise can be the most loving of gestures. All the hidden workings and unseen movements start becoming obvious. The more you understand, the more helpful you can be to others. An opportunist tries to take advantage of the confusion. Libra: Today is an 8. Inspiration and creativity rule your life today. Start a new system to improve your efficiency. Friends and family are amazed by your original approaches to long-standing issues and habits. Scorpio: Today is a 6. Sagittarius: Today is a 6. If at all possible, do your work from home today. Go outside only on your own terms. It really is a jungle out there. Pointing your browser on the Internet is more profitable than steering your car along the road. Capricorn: Today is a 6. Take care of all communication related business in the morning. Unusual things may start happening as the day wears on. Keep your sense of humor sharpened and ready to use. Someone on the job has been annoying lately, but things will change today. Your best hope is that a situation will not get any worse. Thoughts of home are a constant source of relief. Aquarius: Today is an 8. With the Moon in Aquarius, you are swimming in a stream of energy. Morning and evening are productive, while afternoon is a time for receiving. Think of ways to tap into this overflow during your next dry spell. Pisces: Today is a 7. Today is hectic for no apparent reason. The pace of events is likely to wear you down. If you can last until evening, you may find a second wind for some activity that you really enjoy.

The women's team has a 2-2 record in dual-meet competition. D Swimming and diving coach Gary Kempf said the Jayhawks had improved. 1 JUSTICE Kempf. Swimming and diving teams placed well in meet Note: Horoscopes have no basis in scientific fact and should be read for entertainment purposes only. "We had good balance," he said. "Some new people stepped up, and we became a better team this weekend. Overall, I'm pleased." No. 4 Georgia won the men's draw with a total score of 1,141. The Bulldogs were followed by No. 6 Tennessee with 914 points, Kansas with 712 and No. 10 Florida State with 537. In the women's competition, No. 4 Georgia won with 1,184 points.

Painter, who will compete for the U.S. National Team at the World Championships next month, provisionally qualified for the NCAA Championships in the 500-meter Scorpion "I got in a groove and just couldn't get out of it," Peinter said.

Allen, who was 22 at the time, led the Jayhawks to a 66-22 victory against Ottawa Kansas concluded its fall season Sunday but will travel to Cocoa Beach, Fla., Jan. 2 to train. Allen is the winningest basketball coach in Kansas history. He served as head coach from 1907-1909 and 1920-1956. A 9-foot statue of D. Forrest C. Allen will be dedicated at 4 p.m. Saturday in front of the building that was named in his honor, Allen Field House. Statue to be dedicated in 'Phog' Allen's honor Bob Frederick, Kansas athletics director, said it seemed right to dedicate a statue to Allen during the 100th season of Javawk basketball. The ceremony will be three hours before the Jayhawks play Middle Tennessee State in a nonconference game at the field house. "It was 'Phog' Allen who established the tradition of excellence of Kansas basketball," Frederick said. "The statue is a gift to Kansas from the Allen family and from many generous donors from across the nation." M ATHLETIC Kansan staff reports G KSU player posts bond after weekend arrest STATE Davis, a senior who turned 21 yesterday, was stopped early Sunday by Riley County police east of the Kansas State University campus. Davis refused to take a preliminary breathalyzer test. Lt. Buddy Mays said. Speaking to reporters at his regular news conference yesterday, K-State coach Tom Asbury refused to discuss Davis's arrest. MANHATTAN — Kansas State point guard Duane Davis was released on a $1,000 bond after his weekend arrest for driving under the influence of alcohol, officials said. Davis, who transferred from Arizona State, sat out last year under NCAA transfer rules. He scored 26 points in Saturday's game against Coastal Carolina. He posted the bond later Sundav. "This is a matter that will be handled internally and I don't wish to discuss it at this time." Ashbury said. Davis' status for tomorrow's game against Wichita State was unknown, said Kent Brown, the school's sports information director. BOULDER, Colo. — Zac Colvin, rated among the nation's top high school quarterbacks, has made a verbal commitment to attend the University of Colorado. The 6-foot-5-inch, 205-pound Colvin said Sunday he was 99.9 percent sure that he would attend Colorado but still planned to make a recruiting trip to the University of Arizona next weekend.

Colvin, rated No. 3 among high school senior quarterbacks by the National Recruiting Advisor, threw for 1,406 yards and nine touchdowns this season for Lee High School in San Antonio. High school recruits are not Cardinals beat deadline to re-sign Gary Gaetti Free agents not offered salary arbitration before midnight Sunday cannot re-sign with their former teams until May 1. The Cardinals were prepared to offer arbitration to Benes but could not because he has a clause in his contract that forbids it. Benes, 30, was 12-9 last season with a 3.19 ERA. He started 33 games and had 149 strikeouts in 217 innings. "He's still very much a possibility," Cardinals spokesman Brian Bartow said. "There's still a chance." Cardinals general manager Walt Jockett said yesterday afternoon that the parties were close to a deal. Benes was seeking a five-year contract in the $30 million to $35 million range and said he has had feelers from two other teams. ST. LOUIS — The St. Louis Cardinals beat a deadline to re-sign third baseman Gary Gaetti and stretched it yesterday to continue talks with right-hander Andy Benes. Gaetti, 39, agreed to a $1 million, one-year contract before the midnight deadline. He could earn $1.1 million more in performance bonuses, which would bring him up to $2.1 million — matching his 1997 salary. Gaetti had 17 home runs and 69 RBIs last season. The Cardinals want him to play part time and to help outfielder John Mabry make the transition to third base.
