Student seeks steroids in Mexico
How steroids work
Anabolic steroids enter the cell and seek out androgen receptors in the cytoplasm, or body of the cell. Androgen receptors are genetic elements that float in the cytoplasm.
X
The steroid chemicals bind with the receptors creating a steroid-receptor complex. This complex naturally gravitates toward the cell nucleus.
The DNA in the receptor binds with the DNA in the nucleus, making alterations in the cell's genetic code.
The newly modified DNA binds with messenger RNA and is replicated, or copied. The new RNA travels through the cell synthesizing proteins. These proteins lead to the increased muscle tissue associated with steroid use.

MATAMOROS, MEXICO "—'Hey you! Dude! C'mere. Wanna buy some coke? I got a gram of good *****," the man yelled to me as I walked through the market.
He looked as if he had just sampled his product. His eyes were wild, and he wore a permanent grin that showed his crooked, black and yellow teeth.
Everywhere I turned someone wanted to sell me something. Everywhere I stepped was another old woman hugging another baby and holding out another styrofoam cup.
Everywhere I walked someone else wanted to sell me cigarettes.
"Three for five dollars?" a guy asked as he shoved three packs of Marlboros in my face. He looked and smelled as if he had not showered in weeks. "No? Okay, five for three dollars?"
Spring breakers staying on South Padre Island look to nearby Mexico as a land of easy opportunity. Legal drinking at 18 and an abundance of other illegal substances draw students across the border in search of these forbidden fruits.
We were looking for steroids
For years, steroid users have been attracted to Mexico. They find it easy to fuel their illegal habit by traveling to Mexico to buy drugs that, with a prescription, are legal there.
Taking the steroids across the U.S. border is the illegal part.
I wanted to see for myself just how simple it was to buy steroids in Mexico. I crossed the border at Brownsville, Texas, (about 20 minutes from South Padre Island) with James, a personal trainer from the Midwest who discovered last year that he could profit from selling steroids in his gym.
Athletes and bodybuilders compose a large portion of his customer base, but he also sells to students, car dealers, and just about anyone who works out in his gym and wants to improve their results.
"People will tell me, I've tried creatine, protein supplements and weight gainer but I'm not getting results," he said. "That's when I ask them if they have ever considered trying something else."
Most of his clients do not try the drugs, he said. A few, however, find steroids the key to a perfect physique.
James had never been to Mexico. He had always scored his steroids from a friend who made frequent trips across the border. He was just as amazed as I by how easy it was.
"The stuff sells itself," James said. "It's huge."
Block after block, one pharmacy after another advertises everything from over-the-counter prozac to potent diet pills to Rohynphynol, the date rape drug.
Shopping for steroids
First, I asked for 10 shots of DECCA, a potent blend of synthetic testosterone that James said was one of his most requested products. The pharmacist had no idea what I was talking about.
James and I randomly chose a pharmacy, smaller than most of the dozen or so we had seen, and more out of the way.
Then I simply asked, "Any anabolic steroids?"
His face lit up. I had said the magic word
He came back with a box containing a shot of Sustanion 250 and another with an oral dose of Sten, a new steroid that has been gaining popularity.
Both would have cost me $9 a shot.
James said he typically sold athletes about 50 at a time for $25 each shot.
On my god, now that's good stuff." James said. "I can't believe he just brought it out like that."
James was practically drooling. Bodybuilders usually asked for Sustanion, but he had never been able to get enough.
"Do I need a prescription?" I asked
Do I need a prescription? No, that not important. How much you want?" the pharmacist answered in broken English.
I told the pharmacist we would try to come back later. We had driven my Jeep, and I was not about to be caught crossing the border with a controlled substance.
"I wish I had my car and some more money." James said ruefully.
Patty Mancha, U.S. Border Patrol officer, said crossing the border with a controlled substance is a federal offense and almost certainly means jail time.
In the past year, she has seen people get more than a year in federal prison for trying to smuggle snakes for a pet store, fighting roosters, and even avacados and
goat cheese.
"They think that, if you are in Mexico, you can do anything," she said.
The penalties are severe because smuggling violates agricultural, tax and commerce laws. If you have a Drug Enforcement Agency controlled substance, that just adds to your problems.
I had asked the pharmacist about how to take the drugs across the border. Once I left his store, he said, I was on my own.
"You must be careful," he told me. "Illegal on other side."
James and I decided to try another pharmacy to make sure our steroid fortunes were not a fluke.
His price was cheaper. Only $8 a shot. He could sell me 300 shots. I told him we needed to come back with more money and we left.
"I can't believe it," James said shaking his head. "I've gotta come back. Matt comes down here once every other month, so it can't be that tough to get the stuff across."
Steroid smugglers typically do not take across large amounts of the drugs. This makes it much tougher to catch them, said Robert Mansaw, a public information officer with the DEA in Brownsville.
He said that, since the passage of NAFTA and the increase in commercial traffic, it has been much harder to catch all of the illegal substances brought in from Mexico.
Small-time offenders slip through the cracks, he said. Law enforcement agencies are having a hard enough time trying to focus on large-scale commercial traffickers hired by drug lords.

Students plan protest in front of Wescoe to provide support for affirmative action
By Sara Anderson

Wescoe Beach may be a bit crowded this afternoon.
A student group plans to walk out at 1 p.m. in front of Wescoe Hall to support National Day of Action to Defend Affirmative Action. The purpose of the event is to protest the anti-affirmative action legislation in the Kansas Legislature.
“Our agenda is to gain support and send a message to the students and faculty that the support of affirmative action is an essential part of fighting sexism and racism,” said Rochelle Votaw, Lawrence senior and rally coordinator. “We're taking action to oppose Action Wallow of Wichita, who originally drafted the bill against affirmative action.”
The event will include speakers from more than 15 campus organizations, a march

What: Katy supporting affirmative action
When: 1 p.m. today
Where: Begins in front of Wescoe Hall
Who: Groups who already have confirmed participation include Black Student Union, Hispanic American Leadership Organization,

to the Kansas Union and a teach in on the fourth floor of the Union. Votaw said she hoped that 300 to 400 people would attend.
At the teach-in, faculty members will talk to participants about the necessity and the impact of affirmative action, she said.
Votaw said that the goal was starting a national civil rights movement — not targeting the University administration.
The event has not been approved by the University Events Committee because the committee will not meet until after the event, said Danny Kaiser, committee chairman. He said he was concerned about the participants' safety and the possible interference for nonparticipants.
Sgt. Chris Keary of the KU Public Safety Office said the department would take steps to ensure a peaceful demonstration.
student Senate unanimously accepted a resolution to support affirmative action on March 18. Anthony Hersey, National Pan-Hellenic Senator and BSU member, said the resolution was part of the goal.
"We have to take little steps to focus on the goal of acknowledging diversity, dealing with it and preparing for the future," he said.
The rally is part of a nationwide event that includes universities in Arizona, California, Michigan and Virginia. Votaw said that 60 schools were involved.
Spring break program was no vacation

Forty-eight University students attended the program, which was sponsored by the Center for Community Outreach. The students traveled in groups to six cities, including El Paso, Philadelphia and Detroit to volunteer in community service.
Alternative Spring Break turned out to be an unpleasant experience for some University of Kansas students and an eye opener for others.
"The trip was unorganized and pure chaos," Downing said. "The group leaders didn't buy a map. It took 500 more miles to get there than it did to get back. I expect problems to happen, but not having a map is ignorance."
many serve Jennifer Downing, Salina junior, spent her time with Alternative Spring Break in Detroit.
Downing said that working with the children was rewarding, but that the trip had too many problems for her to enjoy it. Her car was hit in the parking lot where the group was staying.
"We entered the program thinking that transportation was going to be provided," said Kathy Bittinner. Salina sophomore.
portation for the group, but the plans fell through because no one in the group was old enough to rent a vehicle.
Downing's car was hit on the driver's side by the rear tire, she said. The front panel was torn off, and the damage was worth about $3,000. she said.
Downing said that the Center for Community Outreach made arrangements to provide trans-
Downing filed a police report about the hit-and-run with the Detroit Police Department, which is investigating the incident.
"We were very irritated the whole time. The whole trip was awful," Downing said. "We missed one of the schools we're supposed to visit because we got lost."
Center for Community Outreach co-director and Detroit site leader, said the accident should not detract from the work they set out to do in Detroit, which targeted violence and conflict resolution.
Heath said she regretted that the mission of the program was overshadowed by personal differences among those who participated in Alternative Spring Break.
"It was one of the best experiences in my life," Skala said. "It completely changed how I think about the education system in American inner cities."
Emily Heath, Oskaloosa senior,
Nicole Skalla, Salina sophomore and Detroit site leader, said that no one was hurt and that despite the car accident, the trip was worthwhile.
Jeff LaCroix, Olathe junior and co-coordinator of the program, was the site leader of the Philadelphia group. Although his group's van broke down, they still had a good spring break, he said.
"It was something totally out of our control. I took it humorously," LaCroix said. "The trip itself was

"A lot of these problems stem from personal problems that happen when seven strangers go together on a trip.
"What matters is to get productive community service work done," Naljm said.
Megan Hope, Garden City graduate student, went to El Paso to work on a community beauty beautification. She said her personal experience helped her learn about herself.
"I think I benefited from the points of view of the other members of the group," Hope said. "We did neighborhood cleanups, we helped dig flower beds, we painted over graffiti."
"I'm not sure if I made an impact in the community, but I learned a lot." Hope said.

"You can't starve one to benefit the other." McCall said. "If you try it, they'll all die."
Building community will build good business, the chief executive officer of Nations Bank Corporation told a crowd of more than 500 people last night at the Lied Center.
Hugh L. McColl Jr. shared his theories about how and why corporate America should invest in the communities in which it does business.
McColl said that everyone belonged to three groups that created our community: work, family and neighbors. He said these groups were connected in every way.
In dealing with employees and their families, McColl said that aside from competitive wages, employees were attracted to work and family programs.
He said that in order for a business to flourish, it must wholly embrace the idea of community building. Examples of this include developing business relationships with minority- and women-owned firms, embracing community investment initiatives and creating a work environment where employees could succeed.
He emphasized his belief in building a strong downtown. In addition to his company's involvement in its home base of Charlotte, N.C., NationsBank is involved in efforts to revitalize Topeka and downtown Kansas City, Mo.
The speech drew mixed reviews from a diverse audience that included faculty, administrators, students, Kansas business leaders and politicians.
Rob Herrington, Lawrence entrepreneur, said he liked the ideal that McColl presented, but questioned the implementation strategies that NationsBank had used
Herrington said that after NationsBank took control of local banks, the company's strategy was to strip middle management and replace existing policies.
Gary Rixson, KU alumnus and AT&T account executive in Kansas City, Mc., said McColl presented important issues.
"He was real," Rixson said. "He gave a refreshing view of business in this day and age."
The School of Business sponsored the speech as part of the Vickers Lecture Series.

Former basketball player gets probation for battery
Former Kansas basketball standout Terry Brown pleaded guilty to a battery charge yesterday in Douglas County District Court, said District Attorney Christine Tonkovich.
Tonkovich said that Brown was placed on probation for 12 months. She said if he violated his probation, he could be sentenced to six months in the Douglas County Jail.
Brown was placed on probation after agreeing to a plea bargain yesterday morning during his trial, Tonkovich said.
Brown, the former KU men's basketball record holder for career three-point field goals made, was arrested Jan. 1 on charges of battering his girlfriend.
Jonathan Jones, Brown's attorney, could not be reached for comment.
Tires slashed on four cars Saturday on West Campus
Three University of Kansas graduate students and a KU staff member left Nichols Hall shortly after midnight Saturday and found that tires on their vehicles had been slashed.
Sgt. Chris Keary of the KU Public Safety Office said that the tires were punctured with a knife.
"It's very likely that they were related," he said. "We will investigate them as if they were."
The vehicles were parked east of Nichols Hall, which is located on West Campus and is primarily a research building.
The staff member, who did not want to be identified, said that she first thought her tire was flat.
She said she filed a report with the police after a mechanic inspected her vehicle.
The damage to the tires was estimated at $435.

Nixon tapes to be given from archives to estate
WASHINGTON — Score one for Richard Nixon.
In a legal battle that has been running almost since Watergate, a federal appeals court ruled yesterday that the National Archives must relinquish about 820 hours of Nixon's White House tapes to the former president's estate. The tapes have never been made public.
The three-judge panel's unanimous ruling covers all of Nixon's recorded musings on personal matters and is based on a Supreme Court decision from 1977.
"It is clear that the Nixon estate, alone, is entitled to full custody and control over tape recordings containing purely personal and private material," the judges wrote, upholding a district court ruling.
The National Archives has been fighting to hold on to the material by arguing that because private and historically significant matters are mixed together on the recordings, the fragile tapes could be destroyed if personal segments were snipped out to be sent to the Nixon Library and Birthplace. Historically important segments that are adjacent to personal matters could be lost, it said.
But the appeals court said archivists could edit personal material out of copies of the tapes without damaging adjacent portions. And the judges seemed unconcerned about the possibility that the original tapes, which already have deteriorated significantly, could be harmed further if private portions were deleted from them.
Women's political activist dies of surgery problems
NEW YORK — Former Rep. Bella Abzug,
whose New York brass and wide-brimmed
hats made her one of the most influential
and recognizable leaders of the women's
liberation movement in the 1970s, died yesterday at 77.
She died of complications from heart survery.
Along with activists such as Gloria Steinem and Betty Friedan, Abzug was in the vanguard of the emerging feminist movement. One of the last of the old-style New York liberal Democrats, she was a vocal opponent of the Vietnam War and a bitter foe of President Nixon.
"Bella was an original," said former New York City Mayor Ed Koch. "The women of the world, not just the country, owe her a great debt. She stood up for them as nobody else. She was their champion."
With the slogan "This woman's place is in the House — the House of Representatives," Abzug beat Rep. Leonard Farbstein, a seven-term Democrat, in the 1970 primary in Manhattan's Upper West Side. She then defeated talk-show host Barry Farber in the general election and became the first Jewish woman in Congress.
Raising her raspy voice against the barriers she said kept women out of politics, Abzug helped pave the way for scores of women who followed her to Congress.
Stamps from computers the new future of postage
WASHINGTON — No more liking and sticking, just clicking, for some folks, Postmaster General Marvin Runyon proclaimed yesterday as he unveiled the first electronic stamps.
The e-stamps were approved for testing and, if all goes well, businesses and individuals will be able to print their own postage using personal computers and the Internet.
"The (postage) we unveil today represents the most significant new form of postage payment in three-quarters of a century." Runyon said.
luring ceremonies at the National Postal Museum.
He then wielded a computer mouse to create the first computer-generated stamp
The move toward electronic postage comes 78 years after approval of postage meters and 151 years after the United States issued its first postage stamps.
"This is the future," said Runyon. "Postage directly from a personal computer."
The system approved for testing was developed by E-Stamp Corp. of Palo Alto, Calif., but other companies are working on similar products, postal officials said.
Lie detector reliability questioned in court cases
The new stamp prints out on a regular computer printer as it puts the address on an envelope.
WASHINGTON — Lie-detector evidence can be banned from trials, the Supreme Court ruled yesterday, citing concern about its scientific soundness. But the justices left open the possibility that polygraph results might have to be allowed in some cases.
"There is simply no consensus that polygraph evidence is reliable," the court said, rejecting 8-1 a California airman's claim that he had a constitutional right to tell a court-martial jury that he passed a lie-detector test.
Some courts allow the use of lie-detector results in criminal trials, but most state and federal courts ban it. Yesterday's ruling allows each court to continue its own policy.
The ban on use of lie-detector results in military trials is a valid means of advancing the legitimate interest in barring unreliable evidence, said Justice Clarence Thomas for the court.
But four justices among the eight-member majority said a future case might present a more compelling argument that some defendants have the right to use favorable polygraph results.
GTAs to fight legislation in Kansas Senate
By Susie Gura

Kansas staff writer
The battle of health care and employee status among graduate teaching assistants has sparked more support at the University of Kansas.
During the Senate Executive Committee meeting yesterday, members briefly discussed issues such as health care and employee status that concern GTAs.
A proposal in the Kansas Senate would eliminate the employer contribution for GTA health insurance unless GTAs to work 1,000 hours a year. It also would override the Public Employees Relations Board rule that recognized the GTA union.
Scott Sullivan, student body president, said a resolution against the proposal was being written.
"I'm sure that you are all aware of the situation of the hours and the overruling of the employee status," Sullivan said. "We are against the proposal and are working with the provost on the issue."
Sullivan said that Provost David Shulenburger had fought against the resolution during the Health Care Commission meetings.
"Either the provost or a member of his staff has been present at every meeting supporting the GTAs," Sullivan said.
Partha Mazumdar, Pittsburgh graduate student, said the resolution should not be decided by the Senate.
"One legislator deciding is a bad idea," Mazumdar said. "It should not be a public administration decision."
On March 23, eight GTAs and Provost Shulenburger attended a Senate subcommittee meeting in Topeka to discuss health care and the status of public employees.
Mark Horowitz, Graduate Teaching Assistant Coalition organizer, said Shulenburger argued on behalf of health care for GTAs but did not comment on GTAs as public employees.
"He said he was in no position to comment on the issue." Horowitz said.
Horowitz was one of the GTAs who attended the meeting.
"We were pleased that the provost was arguing on our behalf for health care, but were disappointed with the University for not commenting on our public employee status." Horowitz said.
A resolution asking the chancellor to make a statement in support of GTAs probably will be debated during Student Senate committee meetings tonight in the Kansas Union.

Students take dose of work
Pre-med volunteers learn medical skills
By Lisa Stevens John
ljohn @kansas.com
Kansan staff writer
In addition to carrying a heavy load of tough classes, many premed students also find time to do volunteer work in the medical field.
Paul Crosby, pre-med adviser at the University of Kansas, said that there were 744 pre-med students enrolled this semester.
"Almost all of the students we have who are applying to medical school are going to be having health care experience, and it's mostly volunteer." Crosby said.
Brian Whitley, Topeka senior, will start classes in August at the University of Kansas Medical Center.
Whitley volunteers three hours a week at a local emergency clinic. He also volunteers 12 to 24 hours a week for American Medical Responses in Topeka. An emergency medical technician,
John Drees, registered nurse,
coordinates volunteers for the
emergency department at
Lawrence Memorial Hospital.
"We have about 50 volunteers on the average at one time," Drees said. "We rely a lot on their services, more than most people understand."
Drees said most students worked during the day and early evening shifts.
"They don't work nights, but we could use them 24 hours," Drees said.
Jason McKinney, Olathe sophomore, began volunteer last year in the emergency room at Lawrence Memorial Hospital.
"I do whatever they need me to do: stock linens, serve as a gofer, observe the physicians and watch the health careers in action," McKinney said.
McKinney said he planned to apply to the Med Center in the fall of 1999. His experiences as a volunteer should help his chances of being accepted to medical school, he said.
However, McKinney said there was more to volunteering than improving a resume.
"Paul Crosby encourages us to volunteer to see if helping people is something we like to do." McKinney said.
McKinney said that the extra knowledge picked up while volunteering was well worth the time.
"Some of the doctors like to show you what they are doing, what's going on with the patients. Some of the doctors show me the X-rays and tell me what's wrong. I also see how doctors interact with their patients," McKinney said.
Drees agreed.
"These people will become clinicians," Drees said. "You can't learn all you need to know by going to class and reading books. The more they see in here, the better their decisions will be later on."
Committees to debate textbook exchanges
By Melissa Ngo
mngo@kanson.com
Kanson staff writer
Both Student Senate campaign coalitions want to help students cut textbook costs.
The Delta Force and Campus Cause coalitions are supporting different Web sites that allow KU students to exchange textbooks with one another.
Seth Hoffman, Nunemaker senatorial candidate and All Scholarship Hall Council senator, and other Delta Force members are sponsoring Senate legislation to finance, what they have titled, the KU Book Exchange.
The KU Book Exchange allows students to sell and buy books, Hoffman said.
"We also have a listing of what books are needed for specific KU classes and they (Campus Cause and Bookswap) don't," Hoffman said.
Hoffman said this was not a campaign issue, and he hoped that it would not turn into one. He said the students were simply interested in less expensive textbooks.
This is the first semester for the KU Book Exchange, Hoffman said.
"They just wanted to save money on textbooks, and we support that," he said.
Senate committees will debate the bill to fund the KU Book Exchange tonight at 6 at various rooms in the Kansas Union.
The Campus Cause coalition and Bookswap, a national organization, have joined to offer students another venue to sell and buy books, said Kevin Yoder. Campus Cause presidential candidate and Interfraternity Council senator.
The selling prices would be lower than those offered at bookstores, Yoders said.
Users can search more than 80 universities throughout the nation including University of Missouri-Kansas City and Texas A&M University, said John Wright. Bookswap president.
Bookswap has been operating at universities for more than a year, Wright said.
Bookswap is not financed or sponsored by Senate
Other legislation includes a bill to fund the Environmental Studies Student Organization, a bill to fund Queers and Allies, two bills to fund the Veterans Organization, a bill to require Senate committee attendance policies, a bill to change the KU Lecture Series and a resolution concerning student absences from classes during inclement weather.

Veterans seek Senate aid
New organization needs office space, staff, founder says
By Laura Bokenkroger
Kansan staff writer
The new Veterans Organization goes before the Student Senate and Finance Committee tonight to request additional funding.
The organization is asking the University for $1,871 to provide an office with more computers and a work space large enough for two full-time employees, a secretary, and student assistants.
The goals of the Veterans Organization, a group established this year by veteran David Perico, Oklahoma City freshman, include increasing support for the veteran and ROTC communities by sponsoring social events and voicing concerns to the administration.
The organization also hopes to establish scholarship funds for veteran and
ROTC students who qualify.
Perico, Veterans Organization president, said the organization was necessary because the University did not provide adequate services to veteran and ROTC students.
Marla Herron, assistant registrar, splits her workday between the residency office and processing GI Bill claims. She said she had only one computer available to her. The small office space in which she works only allows one student assistant to work with her at a time.
"I think that more space would help improve services because we don't get as much privacy as some students need to ask questions." Herron said.
Only one part-time employee now is available to aid the 450 KU students who receive GI Bill benefits.
Perico said that compiling a list of the names of student veterans would enable the University to determine how much money was spent on them in comparison to other special interest groups.
"I don't want more services than any
other special needs group." Percio said. "I just want the level of services provided to veterans to be brought up to the same level as all other groups."
Perico said that this year alone, veterans and ROTC students have paid more than a quarter of a million dollars in student fees.
"We're not upset about not having received any money back since there hasn't been any veterans organization at KU in the past, "Percio said. "But I'm starting to get irritated by all the warnings I have received from the Student Senate and Student Organizations Office that we probably shouldn't expect to get more than a very small percentage of our funding request."
Perico said he hoped that Student Senate would take into consideration the service that student veterans had done for their country and the amount of student fees they have paid.
The Veterans Organization is open to all Army reservists, national guardsmen and discharged veterans and will hold its first meeting next week at a time and in a location to be announced.

Goal of diversity would be impeded by anti-affirmative action legislation
The Judiciary committee of the Kansas Legislature is deliberating about a bill that would prohibit public employers from giving 'preferential treatment' to women and minorities.
The affirmative action program would be replaced with prior laws prohibiting discrimination on the basis of race, sex, color, ethnicity or national origin in public employment and public education hiring practices.
This bill would have negative ramifications for the University of Kansas, and the Legislature should not pass it.
Danielle Dempsey-Swopes, associate director of the KU Equal Opportunity Office, said that the bill would interfere with minority faculty recruitment at the University. The University subscribes to national directories
Students should attend the rally at 1 p.m. today at Wescoe Beach to oppose the proposal
of minorities and women who have received their doctorates. The University uses these doctorate directories to search for potential women and minority faculty and to evaluate how attractive it is to these applicants compared to other universities.
The anti-affirmative action bill would change this. The University would not be able to seek women and minorities and would have an even more difficult time attracting them. Being in a predominantly white state probably makes the University less
attractive to many prospective applicants, particularly minorities. Also, the bill would end programs such as minority pre-orientation. It's passage would impede the University's goal of creating a truly diverse institution. It would hinder academic and social progress at the University.
The University needs affirmative action laws. Without them, it likely will fall in its goal of being progressive and diverse. Students should write their state legislators and demand that this bill be voted down. Also, students should attend the rally at 1 p.m. today at Wescoe Beach, and voice their opposition to the bill. The Legislature must be made to understand that the bill's passage would be unacceptable.

Seeking absolution for perpetrating a columnist
Perspective
Lars
Knobsokatich opinion@kansan.com
have perpetrated a great hoax on all of you. I would like to apologize.
PETER BELONGS TO THE GAME.
My name is Lars Knoboskatich, and I'm a masters student in English. I've always wanted to
write the standard "Something went wrong for me at the University, so I'm going to whine about it" column. I created a character that would "write" the entire column.
Furthermore, I'm a huge Beatles fan. I especially love what they did with Sargent Pepper's, the fact that the album was written as though they were the Lonely Hearts Club Band. One day last year, I was thinking about that, and I realized how I could grow as a writer. I became a University Daily Kansan columnist. However, I wasn't going to
be a writer. Not just any writer, but I wanted my characters to live, I wanted to be as realistic as I possibly could.
I might have kept this ruse up for a while, but after yesterday I realized I just couldn't drag myself through the mental slime that is the character of Nick Bartkoski. Mocking Eliot's classic *Middle march* Playing Nintendo 64 with his cats? Using the movie *Titanic* to improve his worth to women? Obsessing about that tacky and disgusting dress Ashley Judd wore to the Academy Awards? Writing as Nick Bartkoski demeans my value as a human being, and I just can't do it anymore.
That character was Nick Bartkoski.
The Kansan made me use a picture of myself as a mug shot for the column. Last semester, I had them take the picture really dark to obscure my features. I also wore this old Beatles wilg in the photo both to hide my identity and as a tribute to the Beatles' Sargent Pepper's album. This semester, I went ahead and had a clearer picture taken because I was tiring of the Nick Bartkoski persona and figured I would walk away from it sometime this semester.
This may sound like a little thing, but I even did my best to make Nick's prose worse than mine. Nick's an idiot, I'm a grad student who's actually been writing for years.
I wanted to create a character that would evoke strong emotions from the readers. I think Andy Kaufman said it best when he said, "I just want real reactions. I want people to laugh from the gut, get sad from the gut or to get angry from the out."
The worst thing about the whole thing is that it affirmed my total lack of faith in human nature. Public response to this abomination was overwhelmingly positive. When he wrote about being hated by women, a lot of people wrote in to support him. As he rhapsodized about having sex with an intern, everyone cheered. When he used the phrase "militantly man-hating feminist lesbian," no one blinked. When he blaspedhemed against our Lord by rewriting a book of the Bible, the Pope sent his positive regards. Nick Bartkoski is a man no mother could love, no person could condone, no one should allow to live, and you, the students at the University of Kansas, loved him. What surprised me most of all was when I would hear about people talking about how they knew Nick, had him in a class or whatever. What are you people on?
So alas poor Nick, I knew him well Horatio ... and I despised him. I hope that perhaps some一日 can regain my credibility as a writer and a human being, despite creating a character like that.
So I tried to create as despicable a person as I could. I decided Nick had to be young, about 20, just because of how noxious he is. I am proud of the way I tied Nick's demeanor into many of the great characters in literature. Like those great characters, Nick is dissatisfied with his life, but cannot take responsibility for it, and instead spends all of his time lamenting how bad things are. Nick has no redeeming qualities. Finally, while I would exaggerate at times, I think I communicated well that Nick's physical appearance was vomit-inducing.
To give myself a challenge, Nick was intentionally very different from my own life. Nick is obsessed with alienation, especially from females. That is the furthest thing from my mind. I've been happily married for three years to my wife, Wendy, and we've known each other forever. We also have a beautiful two-year-old son named Edward.

Addies, Johnson County and editors in your face
Andy Obermuelter
andyo@kansan.com
I have subverted the most basic duty of an editorial staff member. I am not proud of myself. You often hear that the first step in confronting a problem is to admit it. So here goes: I actually like the addies this semester.
Many of you out in Kansan-
land may be unaware that there is an age-old feud between the advertising staff and the editorial staff. It's a standard battle at most newspapers. The rift goes something like this: the addies think that advertising is the most important thing in the paper. And to be fair, they are correct. Ads pay for the lion's share of each issue.
think that no one would read the damn ads if it was not for the paper's insightful reporting and flawless writing. And to be fair, they are correct too.
alnooyo @ alnanoan.com
Ergo, it's not difficult to hate the ad staff if you are a newsie. They roll in to the office whenever and serve something called an office hour. This means they talk about where they went out the night before and perhaps pick up the phone if it happens to ring, which it doesn't. Maybe they call a client and grovel for a sale, but probably not. Depends on the weather. Depends on their mood. It depends on hung over the particular addie is. Life is easy when you're an addie. That's why we hate them.
Life in the newsroom is a far cry, from life in the ad side. For instance, reporters couldn't stay for just an hour if they tried. It's impossible to leave the newsroom once you have arrived. Newsies
So where's the problem?
Simple: money and time
And come to think of it, I got 18 in yesterday.
Addies are guaranteed cushy jobs with hefty paychecks for working from oh, say, 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., with two hours allocated for lunch and nine holes guaranteed before dark. Newies are locked into a life of cruel penury, late nights, and on top of all that, they have to deal with copy editors, whose sole purpose in life is to tell you (with zeal) that you are wrong. And let's be honest, who wouldn't rather take a client to lunch than sit at a city commission meeting for five hours?
Obermuller is a Liberal, Kan., senior in journalism and Opinion Page co-editor.
The real reason I think addie-newsie tension is reduced is the overall Johnson-County quotient in the newsroom. But this semester, Editor Lindsey Henry and Co-Managing Editor Dave "In-Your-Face" Morantz both hall from Abercrombieville. Addies typically have strong ties to JoCo, and embody the Johnson County stereotype. Even here at the University of Shawne Mission, that's still distasteful. But the problem is that newsies tend to love their editors. This semester, we are forced to love two Johnson Countians and accept their strange ways despite ourselves. And because it's inherent in Johnson County culture that you work from oh, say 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. with two hours allocated for lunch and nine holes guaranteed before dark, we have lots fewer reasons to hate the addies.
have deadlines to meet, not just a sales quota. If addies don't meet their quota, then they don't get paid as much. But if a newsie (most of whom not only don't get paid but must pay tuition to work on staff) misses deadline, he gets managing editor Dave Morantz in his face, and no one wants that. And when a newsie finally gets to leave the newsroom after tracking down sources, writing a story and subjecting himself to a hard-nosed campus editor's perusal of his work and mangling of his words, some nit-picky copy editor calls to ask if she can change the lead. The only call an adie heeds after 5 p.m. is last call at some Adie hangout.
Yet despite all of these completely justifiable reasons for animosity toward addicts, I can't help but like the ad staff this semester. They seem to be fine people who do a good job. The opinion page, which is the first to get axed when ads are thin and the paper is small, has never been cut.
This semester, the addies visit the newsroom and smile and ask us how we are doing. They appear genuine, and believe me, "genuine addie" is an oxymoron of unprecedented humor. Some addies actually know some newsies' names. I don't know any of the addie's names. They actually have shared food with us this semester. It's like a weird Twilight Zone episode. An addie actually hugged me when we saw each other after spring break. I didn't know what to do.
Feedback
Rock Chalk didn't threaten speech
William Q. Martin and Philip Ridenour are deeply confused about free speech rights (Feedback, March 30). They think a demonstration criticizing a Rock Chalk skit violates the performer's rights. By that reasoning, their own letters would violate the demonstrators' rights. Fortunately, no one's rights have been violated. No one has been prevented from adding to the delightful cacophony of this campus. Criticizing the content of someone's speech, as
Martin is wrong to construe aggressive counter-speech as chilling free speech, because
the demonstrators did, is not akin to suppressing free speech. Instead, it is the very soul of free speech, whose purpose it is to permit controversy and dissension in the hone that truth will emerge.
More expansive free speech claims might preclude antispeech actions by powerful non-governmental groups. But even if the demonstrators were such a group, non-slanderous counter-speech is never precluded — not even verbal attacks that shame and embarrass the speaker.
the risk of being criticized and feeling bad about it is innate to public speaking. What's more, shame and embarrassment are natural consequences of making statements perceived as stupid or reprehensible. It is perfectly legitimate to say that arguably racist speech is racist, which is just what the demonstrators did. The ensuing dialogue is exactly what free speech is all about.

Panel on gays starts Jewish Sex Week
By Sara Anderson
By Sara Anderson
sanderson@kanson.com
Kanson staff writer
Jewish Sex Week kicked off last night with a panel discussion, "Gays and Lesbians: The Jewish Community's Invisible Minority."
The program was held at 8 p.m. at the International Room in the Kansas Union and was sponsored by the Hillet Foundation. The program also included designing an AIDS quilt panel for the national Names Project for display and distribution. Thirteen people attended the free event.
The panel included three speakers from the Jewish Community Relations Bureau/American Jewish Committee; Barb Radov, Helen Cohen and Steve Brown. Myron Slotsky, also a member of the
bureau, moderated the event.
The panelists discussed how homosexuality had been a part of the Jewish religion and lifestyle.
"The main point is to relate to who we are as Jews, lesbians and gays — not to have pity or to react, but to reach out." Radov said.
Serena Gutnik, Sioux Falls, S.D., freshman, said the program was amazing.
"It was wonderful and motivating that I could be an advocate of this without being homosexual," she said. "It's fascinating how they explained being Jewish and gay as one entity."
Panelists shared personal experiences and answered questions from the audience. Cohen said she learned how to understand herself better after learning her son was gay.
"I learned how to come out of my own closet," she said. "We all have our own closets, and I am grateful to him."
Slotsky said the main point was to break down some of the myths that surround gays.
"The Jewish community can include gays and lesbians, and all benefit from working together," he said.
Heather Greene, organizer of the event and Des Moines, Iowa, freshman, said she wanted to present a program that was different from the usual sexuality programs.
"I don't think it's an overdone topic, and I haven't ever seen a program that combined the issues together," she said. "If we know more, the more people understand about people around them."
Bus fans appeal to commission
Transportation and parking plans concern residents
By Jeremy M. Doherty jdoherty@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
A debate about the pros and cons of city-financed public transportation erupted unexpectedly at last night's meeting of the Lawrence City Commission.
Commissioners received a report examining the parking conditions in downtown Lawrence. The report, prepared by a Chamber of Commerce task force, called for improvements to parking lots on Rhode Island and New Hampshire streets. The report also asked the commission to consider solutions to downtown overcrowding, such as a public garage.
When commissioners opened the microphone for public comment, a handful of Lawrence residents instead criticized the five-person board's stance on public transportation.
The Lawrence residents said the commission was attempting to
rush ahead with plans for a parking garage without considering other options.
Frank Janzen, Lawrence resident, said the situation downtown was not serious enough to warrant a garage.
"The thing I am most concerned about is having a three-tiered parking lot by the library," he said. "It's the 300-pound gorilla that no one wants. It would go against the ambiance we have downtown."
Hilda Enoch, Lawrence resident,
said she doubted that a garage would serve the best interests of the community.
"We need to look at what our priorities are here," she said.
Mayor Bonnie Augustine disagreed, saying that the downtown parking problem was not caused only by Lawrence residents.
"I'm convinced that we'd still have a parking concern even if we had an adequate public transportation system," Augustine said. "It's because downtown attracts so many people from out of town."
Augustine also said that any plans for a garage would need more discussion at future commission meetings.
Commissioners agreed to:
CITY COMMISSION
Obtain preliminary engineering services for improving the city-owned parking lots in the 800 blocks of Rhode Island and New Hampshire streets.
Obtain design services for directional signs and brochures to promote and explain the downtown parking system.
- Develop an outline for a Downtown Parking Facilities Advisory Board to handle issues related to downtown parking.
"We're a long way away from building a garage," she said.
After hearing from the residents, the commission directed its staff to look further into the report's recommendations.
Last night's incident came just one day after a local organization announced that it had collected 1,000 signatures in favor of establishing a city-wide bus system in Lawrence. Since March, Citizens for Public Transportation has been pushing for a subsidized program to serve KU students and Lawrence residents and would work in tandem with KU on Wheels.

Searches slow students
James, a friend and I head into an out-of-the-way pharmacy in search of steroids. We crossed the border into Matamoros, Mexico, during spring break to find out how easy it would be to bring them back into the United States. Photo by Gerry Dovle/KANSAN
Continued from page 1A
Crossing the border
"NAFTA makes it tougher for these inspectors to pull over every truck and make a thorough search," he said. "While one is being caught, two or three are slipping through undetected."
This means that someone carry-ing only enough of an illegal substance for recreational use has a good chance of sliding through undetected.
The second time I walked across.
The next day I went to Mexico twice to shop for some clothes and cheap alcohol. The first time I drove across the border. There was no search. I only had to pay a $2 tax on a bottle of tequila.
Now I was terrified.
As we made our way through customs, two in our group of five were singled out to be searched. I was one of them.
Two U.S. Border Patrol agents escorted me to a small room. It looked a little like a doctor's examining room, only more frightening. I saw a box of latex gloves in the corner.
One agent guarded the door as another, looking a little too pleased with his job, told me to empty my pockets and stand against the wall.
Then he put his hand down the back of my shorts and goosed me. I jumped.
He did not answer. He only told me to spread my legs.
Then he reached between my legs, got a good grip and pulled hard.
I looked at the box of gloves. "It could be worse." I told myself.
Satisfied I had nothing hidden in my shorts, he finished patting me down, let me collect my stuff and told me I could go.
If I had been hiding anything, he would have found it.
Mancha said that people going through customs were not singled out for searches randomly. Agents search everyone who fits a certain profile. Customs officials also search people based on information gathered by lookouts.
"Just like any other law enforcefor a return to Mexico.
Although the student population swells during the spring, college students crossing the border are not a DEA priority, Mansaw said.
"I don't think it's a situation where students are bringing truckloads across," he said.
James did not buy any steroids during our trip, but the last time I talked to him, he was taking orders
"I in one trip I could clear $4,000," he told me. "I know I could get that stuff across so easy. So many people will buy that stuff when I get back."
"What about the border?" I asked him. "Remember how they searched me?"
"That's too much easy cash to pass up," he said as he drove away.
He was not worried. If he drove across, he was sure it would not be a problem.
Pictures of body builders sporting massive physiques adorn his office walls.

Steroid side effects outweigh easy buys south of the border
"That one was me," he says, pointing to an immense figure spreading a back with muscles the size of Thanksgiving turkeys
This Lawrence trainer, a heavy set man who could never pass as an athlete, was once one of the top bodybuilders in the country.
That was when he used steroids.
He took them because he just was not big enough. Even after he took them, he still did not think he was big enough.
"Back then, I never saw how big I was," he says.
He takes another look at the picture.
"I was huge."
He used steroids for 17 years before he was busted in 1991. Today, he runs a successful business in Lawrence.
"Please don't use my name," the trainer requested before granting an interview.
When he was arrested for possession of steroids, he lost his business and his reputation. He fears the same thing could happen again.
This devastation does not stop some students from searching for the key to the perfect body, sometimes spending up to $1,000 for an eight-week cycle of steroids.
The reclassification of steroids has changed the way athletes get them, and from where the steroids come. This has made the precarious business of steroids even more risky.
A Lawrence narcotics officer said that students go to South Padre Island during spring break and buy steroids in nearby Mexico. Steroids are legal in Mexico with a prescription, but are a controlled substance in the United States.
Sgt. George Wheeler of the Lawrence Police Department said that most of what people get in Mexico was trash, but that it still
"If they are bringing back that kind of stuff, then we'll arrest them," he said. "We have in the past."
was illegal.
The narcotics officer said catching steroid users was tough.
"People that get steroids usually do not actively push them," he said. "It's a real small clique. The only things we can pursue are those we get tips on. We just don't get a lot of tips on that sort of thing."
Wheeler said that catching steroid users was tough and that Lawrence was not a point of entry.
"Our plates are kind of full with what we've got," he said.
When steroid users get caught, they could face serious penalties.
Steroids became a federally controlled substance subject under the Drug Enforcement Agency's regulation after the passage of the Anabolic Steroids Control Act of 1990.
Because the legal status of steroids changed, good, reliable doses have been hard to come across.
The best steroids come from Germany. Since the DEA began cracking down on steroid dealers in the early 1990s, the best supplies, made in the United States or Eastern Europe, have been drying up, forcing trips to Mexico.
"We used to say that the Mexican stuff was only half as good as the East German or American stuff," the trainer said. "It would only get you half the results."
That is still good enough for students who remain unsatisfied and desperate for a muscular body.
"There are still people who do them," he said. "There will always be guys who do them."
Students who dabble in the Mexican drugs are asking for trouble.
Steroids play havoc with the body's hormone levels and doses must be cycled to allow the body to recover.
A normal male body produces about 12 to 20 milligrams of testosterone each week. When the trainer was at the height of his competitive
career, he took 12 shots a week which translated to 3,500 milligrams of testosterone in the body.
At these levels the male's main producers of testosterone, the testicles, begin to shrink. If the levels persist, atrophy sets in because there is no need to produce anymore. Acne breakouts and mood swings also have been linked to extreme testosterone levels.
Randall Rock, physician and chief of staff at Watkins Memorial Health Center, would not be specific, but admitted that he had seen KU students who used steroids and had answered several questions about what could happen if they began using them.
Rock said that students who used steroids often did so out of insecurity.
"Steroids allow you to get results quicker and easier," Rock said. "You can get more defined using steroids."
Rock said that he discouraged students from spending the money to risk shooting up Sustanon, a popular steroid, or popping Sten, an oral form.
"We encourage students not to use steroids, even if they are side effect free," he said.
Students may have undetected side effects and find out down the road that they have developed severe liver damage, heart problems or even cancer.
Rock said he was concerned that steroid users placed too much emphasis on looks. Students should asses why they want to be so muscular, he said.
Rock stressed that students on steroids were always welcome to come in and ask questions without repercussions. Although steroids are illegal, Rock has a responsibility to patient confidentiality.
"They can come in without any fear that we will report them to the authorities," Rock said. "I may disapprove of what someone is doing, but that doesn't mean that I disapprove of them as a person. People need to realize that there is a difference."

KAW celebrates one year on air
By Chris Horton
chorton@kansan.com
Kanson staff writer
After one year of broadcasting, KAW 88.9 FM is ready to celebrate.
The KAW Birthday Bash will be at Liberty Hall tonight and will feature live music and poetry, special guests, a birthday cake and a pinta. It will start at 8 p.m. and will continue until about 1 a.m.
The Birthday Bash will be different from events such as the letter-writing party and the March 1 bowling tournament that benefited the station.
Tonight's event is more of a party than a benefit, said Laurel Wimberg, who organized the bash.
Musicians scheduled to appear are The Telathe Singers, Al Trout and his Happy Ukelebe, Danger Bob, Planetarium, The Hefners, The Teriyaki, and Sunbarrow. Wimberg said there would be live poetry readings between band acts.
Larry Brinkman, guitarist and vocalist for the The Hefens, hosts the show "No Hit Wonders" on KAW. Brinkman said programming diversity was the station's greatest asset.
"It's a goal of everybody at the station to avoid the mainstream," he said.
Brinkman said he was excited to be a part of the station's first birthday and that he is expecting a good turnout.
he said. "You can get your rock 'n' roll, maybe some drinks and do some socializing."
"I think it's going to be a blast,"
Wimberg said the proceeds from the bowling tournament and birthday party would be allocated at a financial planning meeting 11 a.m. Saturday at Alderson Auditorium in the Kansas Union. The public is welcome, she said.
Wimberg, host of KAW's "Metamorphic Rock with Lena Inverse," said she knew the station would survive its first year despite Federal Communications Commission warnings.
She said the FCC was considering a proposal to establish licensing procedures for low-wattage stations similar to KAW. Community input is important in influencing the FCC, and it will be possible for tonight's partygoers to contact the FCC, she said.
"We'll have everything people need to write letters or just take information home with them," Wimberg said.
The support shown by the Lawrence community for KAW during the past year might have had an influence in the FCC's possible licensing of low-power stations, she said.
"I think KAW has had a role in the FCC changing its mind about smaller stations," Wimberg said. "The packet we sent them from our letter-writing party at the ECM building was huge."
University technology to revamp news media
By Aaron Knopf
aknopf@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Cable and satellite television systems have vastly increased the number of programs available to viewers. But with so much programming, it is nearly impossible for people to watch — or even to know about — all the shows that might interest them.
Worldwide Broadcasting Network of Cambridge, Mass., has designed a system to solve this problem. And the system is based on technology originally developed at the University of Kansas.
Worldwide's system digitizes video feeds and stores them in a computer database, indexing each scene in the feed by its closed-caption content. Subscribers can connect to Worldwide's database through the Internet to search for specific video clips that meet their criteria. Users can request notification by e-mail anytime new video comes in with specific content.
"This product greatly increases the efficiency with which you watch TV," said David Kamins, vice president of engineering. "The ultimate vision is our machines could continuously be watching dozens of channels a day for topics that are interesting to you."
The system has the potential to change the way people watch broadcast television. People basically could build their own newspapers from a variety of sources based on topics that interest them.
Susan Gauch, assistant professor of electrical engineering and computer science, led a team that developed the key components in Worldwide's system for storing and cataloging video feeds.
Gauch was principal investigator in a faculty group that applied for a National Science Foundation grant to develop the system in early 1994. When they did not get the money, the university of Kansas funded the project with a $97,000 research development fund grant, Gauch said. She also said additional funding came from the Center for Excellence in Computer Aided Software Engineering.
She said that a team of faculty, students and researchers had developed a working prototype by early 1996 and that Worldwide approached the University about licensing the technology in the summer of 1996.
Gauch said the initial vision for the project was to build online video archives that educational institutions could search. However, she said that she liked Worldwide's concept of letting people build customized news broadcasts.
"As a mother, that appeals to me because I will not watch the news with my children in the room," she said.
Kamins said that right now the only channels that Worldwide is capturing and indexing are C-SPAN and C-SPAN2.
"They try it and think, 'Gee, it's really cool, but I sure wish there were some sports on there,'" he said of the pilot users.
But Kamins said that Worldwide soon would have more content in its system. He said capturing news from CNN was one of Worldwide's key goals.
"We could go license it today for literally millions of dollars, but were a small startup and don't have that kind of capital," he said.
The key to working with CNN and other similarly sized broadcasters was proving that Worldwide's concept was commercially viable. Kamins said.
"You have to build the market first and build bigger and bigger partnerships as you grow," he said.
What's the buzz?

St. Lawrence earns grant to encourage abstinence
Graham K. Johnson gjohnson@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
The St. Lawrence Catholic Campus Center recently said yes to a federal grant designed to encourage young people to say no to premarital sex.
The $66,667 grant was awarded to St. Lawrence March 20 as part of the federal government's 1996 Abstinence-Only Education Program. The program funds abstinence-only sex education, and broad-based sex education programs.
Father Vince Krische, head pastor of St. Lawrence, said the program was part of a national effort to fight the epidemic of teen pregnancy.
Krische said that the center's program would be a unique approach. The funds will be used to train college students to become abstinence counselors, Krische said. Counselors then will
"The nation has seen an increase in teen pregnancy," Krische said. "This is an opportunity to see if we can help solve this problem."
work with teens to encourage them to abstain from intercourse and to avoid problems such as teen pregnancy. Krische said.
Don Brown, spokesman for the Kansas Department of Health and Environment said the strength of the center's proposal, and its history in promoting abstinence helped St. Lawrence receive the grant.
The program specifies that the money must be used exclusively to promote abstinence, Brown said. The program also requires that St. Lawrence provide three dollars of funds or in-kind services for every four dollars of grant money.
Brown said that the grant came from $391,000 given to the state by the federal government.
Five other groups across the state received a portion of the state's money.
Krische said the program would be a success because the teenagers would look up to and respect the college-aged counselors' advice.
Professor Dennis Dailey, University of Kansas professor of Social Welfare, said that abstinence-only
education programs were too narrow and would not help people with special problems.
"Many abstinence-only programs are not what I would call 'comprehensive' because they don't address issues like contraception, abortion or homosexuality that require study and information," Dailey said.
"I think it's the opposite," Krische said. "The current sex education programs are narrow because they focus mainly on the physiological aspects. The abstinence-only program is built upon a whole way of life that can give a sense of freedom, that young people don't have to be exploited by others and risk their lives at such a young age."
Krische disagreed.
Rachel Seidle, Tulsa, Okla., freshman, said that abstinence freed people from the worries of pregnancy and disease, but that both educational approaches had their benefits.
Magnets kick off poetry month
WASHINGTON—Poet T.S. Eliot called April "the crauelest month." But the Academy of American Poets has made it National Poetry Month, and President Clinton has promised to join in by reading his favorite poem in a video to be preserved for posterity.
"I think a mix of the approaches would be the most effective," Seidel said.
The White House won't say what the president will read at the event April 22. Hillary Rodham Clinton also will read her favorite poem.
The Associated Press
Others reading that night will be poe laureate Robert Pinsky and two predecessors: Robert Hass and Rita Dove.
Pinsky began as laureate last October with a project for recording the favorite poems of Americans from all walks of life, read by
"There will be about 1,200 audio and 200 video," he said in a recent interview.
themselves.
In a foreword he wrote for a book, "The Magnetic Poetry Book of Poetry," collected by the Minneapolis firm that makes the tiles, Pinsky said: "The poems we assemble on our refrigerators are the compositions of actual American people, produced not for profit but for the fun of it, and to satisfy
that peculiar, deep itch to make something new."
Sabo said he had little interest in poetry but was trying to help the company that made the tiles, which provides jobs in his district and does promotes literacy.
On the other hand, he is an avid fan of the Minnesota Twins, so for reporters and photographers on the Capitol lawn he read four lines from the poem "Casey at the Bat" by Ernest Thayer, which appeared in the San Francisco Examiner June 3. 1888.
But before anyone actually could compose poetry on the wall, the Capitol police asked that it be moved to a nearby book shop, because, an aide to Sabo said, they considered it a commercial message for the company that makes the tiles.

April Fool's Day. 1998
1983 explosion leveled Lawrence
Blast provided city excuse to rebuild
By Tim Harrington tharrington@kanson.com Associate features editor
Just 15 years after the city of Lawrence and all its people were reduced to microscopic particles of carbon in a brilliant incendiary blink of an eye, the community thrives with post-apocalyptic life.
Now Lawrence is the archetype for how to recover from a global thermonuclear strike.
In 1983, a Soviet intercontinental ballistic missile unleashed 30 to 40 megatons of nuclear hellfire upon the Lawrence community and turned its University to ashes, its homes to radioactive deathtraps and its people to either overcooked chicken nuggets or severely sunburned, blood-thirsty brain-eating mutants.
The University of Kansas, nestled in the heart of the now-bustling city, fried like butter in a skillet. The buildings, students, faculty, staff and especially the administration melted into little puddles of goo microseconds before the shockwave blasted them into the upper atmosphere. Remains of the Jayhawk, classes of '83, '84, '85 and '86 probably haven't landed yet.
But the phoenix-like Jayhawk arose from the radioactive ashes to spread its wings again.
The school's legendary basketball program was resurrected in time to win a national championship in 1988. Beautiful downtown Lawrence is once again a great place to shop during the fall, and at the historic Free State Brewery, 636 Massachusetts St., the beer once again flows like wine.
But behind the city's shining new facade, the '83 tragedy reeks havoc in the minds of Lawrence residents.
Bob Valasek, Lawrence senior, refuses to talk about the devastation.

It seems that the people here were so horrified by the incident that they have developed complex mental defense mechanisms to suppress the memory of their town being popped like some giant nuclear pimple just 14 years ago. It's as if it was all just some scene from a movie.
University of Kansas students lounge on Massachusetts Street shortly after much of Lawrence [background] was destroyed by a Russian nuclear missile blast. In the short time since, the city has risen from the ashes and thrives once again. File photo

"It was a movie. It was like a 15 second scene in a movie. Get away from me, freak."
"Please get away from me," she said.
"You're scaring me. There's an emergency call box 10 feet away. Don't think I won't use it."
The horror of being obliterated in a thermonuclear explosion has left Caler unable to talk about the incident.
Peace between the United States and the former Soviet Union has allowed former Cold War enemies to get to know each other as friends as well as allies.
Nicolae Krustegorbenstal Rusinski was a major in the Red Army in 1983 and pushed the button that fired the missile that exploded over Lawrence that made the city go poof.
Rusinski recounts the tumultuous emotional roller coaster that ripped through him when the order came to kill thousands of innocent people with the touch of a button.
"I sat in a small box four miles under a mountain in Siberia," Rusinski said. "I sat in front of a green light. When it turns red, I was to push the button. In 1983, it turned red. I pushed the button."
Not all Lawrence residents view thermonuclear destruction with the stereotypical malice that the mainstream media so
often use to portray it.
One of those people is Dan Cimarolli, who became the mayor of Lawrence in 1984.
"I'll admit it," he said. "I benefited from all the nuclear destruction. I simply said to the voters, 'Look where the incumbent got you; scorched earth, radiation mutations and all that icky stuff. How much worse could I do?"
He said that another integral plank in his campaign platform was his way of looking on the bright side of Lawrence's situation.
"I pointed out that the parking shortage downtown was completely gone," he said. "You could park anywhere you liked. You might say we nuked the problem."
Cimarolli won by a landslide.
Maybe Lawrence's remarkable recovery ability is because of practice.
Lawrence is no stranger to being burnt to
the ground. In 1863, William Quantrill and his men did a pretty good job of it, but the people of Lawrence proved resilient. After Quantrill's raids, the city officially adopted the phoenix as its symbol.
In 1970, a few KU students and Lawrence residents gave it another try, but the National Guard was called in, and the phoenix stood fast.
Cimarolli hopes the trend will continue.
The kids hope the trend will continue.
"I've been waiting 12 years now for this place to burn again," he said. "I tried lighting my own house on fire to get it started, but the fire department came. At first I thought they were on my side because they didn't do anything, but they just made sure no other houses caught fire. They let mine burn to the ground."
Cimarrol said that if re-elected, he would fire the fire department.
Achievement ceremony lacks excellence

Controversy filled the air last night as the University of Kansas attempted to give one of its highest honors, the award for Outstanding Achievement in the Field of Excellence.
The two final candidates for the award, Ardin Hablin, Gridley senior, and Sarah Zignif, Formosun junior, serve as reminders to all KU students that an outstanding commitment to achieving victory in life's obstacles and a relentless dedication to excellence are rewarded.
When the committee announced that Zignif would be the recipient
Unfortunately, the award includes no requirement for being a good winner.
of the Outstanding Achievement in the Field of Excellence award, Hablin immediately jumped to his feet in protest.
"She could wander around the Field of Excellence for hours and not even know it," Hablin protested. "Sure, she made a few achievements, but nothing that really stood out."
It was at that point that one of committee members explained the group's decision. He said that although Hablin's achievements also stood out, they were not outstanding, as Zignif's achievements were.
Hablin then let out a burst of obscenities directed at the committee and announced that he was going home. Before carrying through with his statement, he violently attempted to disconnect the microphone from the lectern.
Unsuccessful in his efforts, with tears streaming down his face, Hablin dragged the lectern out of the auditorium while muttering obscenities. From the hall came another burst of obscenities that sounded as if it came from Hablin. He then re-entered the auditorium and let loose with a final burst of obscenities directed at no one in particular.
Audience and committee members then helped themselves to Rice Krispies Treats and punch.
The award for Outstanding Achievement in the Field of Excellence is given to one KU student each year who, in the eyes of Outstanding Achievement in the Field of Excellence committee members, has devoted his or her time at the University to making significant achievements that exemplify excellence.
Abbie Spanokin, Lakin senior and Outstanding Achievement in the Field of Excellence student representative committee member, said that the group could not have made a more outstanding choice.
"Her tireless efforts in the field of excellence really are an achievement for this truly outstanding student." Spanokin said. "She's just had so many excellent outstanding achievements that I couldn't possibly think of one now."
Factors that committee members look for when deciding who will win the Outstanding Achievement in the Field of Excellence award are: the number of highly notable achievements made, the degree to which those achievements were outstanding, and whether the outstanding achievements enter the realm of excellence.
"I knew I had achieved a few things, and I suspected that some of them were outstanding," Zignif said. "But to be considered to be in the field of excellence really bakes my beans. I couldn't believe it."
Zignif said her first achievements came late in high school, but that they were not very outstanding.
"They really sucked," she said.
"They really sucked," she said. But at the University, Zignif blossomed into an outstanding achiever. There was talk of excellence, but she dismissed it as crazy-person talk.
"I guess they really were excellent," she said. "And anyone who has read this far down in this story should consider themselves fooled."
Former student comes clean; code of responsibility a farce
A recent confession by the former KU student who wrote the Code of Student Rights and Responsibilities may have serious repercussions for the University community.
Matt Tobin, Sandusky, Ohio, graduate has admitted that he stole most of the text of the Student Code of Rights and Responsibilities from Manhattan University's code of conduct.
Tobin's actions violate Article II, section 6 of the code which deals with academic misconduct. By plagiarizing the Code of Student Rights and Responsibilities, Tobin made the Code null and void the moment it went down on paper.
"I'm just a joker at heart, I guess," Tobin said. "I planned this all from the beginning. Now, I'll be laughing all the way to the bank. No, wait, I guess I'll just be laughing."
As Tobin laughs, the University is technically in a state of anarchy in which there are no student rules whatsoever.
"I'm going to walk right into class and punch my teacher square in the face," said Doug Calkins, Pittsburgh, Pa. sophomore. "He really has it coming."
Faculty members seemed eager to teach students who had no rights.
Some cooperation between the faculty, staff and students has been reported. A large crowd comprised of members of all three groups armed with torches, rocks, and fire bombs was sighted en route to Stauffer-Flint Hall.
"I'm bringing my gun, a baseball bat and a can of mace," said Janet Grimes, professor of underwater basket weaving and physics. "I plan to blow the head off of any students who don't have their homework."
Most students are taking the news well.

In a ground breaking and startling display of rebellion, University of Kansas freshman Apryl Calley dyed her hair purple Saturday.
Replacing her old garb will be a full line of rock and under-sized Porn Star T-shirts, black schoolgirl dresses and baggy pants.
"This is just the beginning," Calley said. "I'm going to the secondhand and thrift stores after my poetry-writing class."
Speaking from the front steps of her residence hall, the Derby design major expressed extreme pleasure with her change in hair color.

Merrymaking top priority for iron-fisted coalition
Third group throws hat into Senate election ring

In a surprising turn of events, a third party has entered the mudslinging of campus election season.

Batkunin: New kid on the campaign block
A Campus Cause senatorial candidate who wished to remain anony-
norse coalition appears to be a formidable opponent for Campus Cause and Delta Force, two parties already engaged in political competition.
mous said of the upstart party, "I don't know S.C.H.I.T.; my colleagues don't know S.C.H.I.T., but I can guarantee you one thing: We're not afraid of them."
A Delta Force candidate said her party was ready for S.C.H.I.T. in the upcoming election.
"I was overwhelmed by their views on campus issues," Tillison said, "In fact, my friends and I are such avid supporters, we call ourselves 'S.C.H.I.T. heads.'"
Michael Batkunin, Berkeley, Calif. senior, is the coalition's candidate for student body president. Batkunin said that S.C.H.I.T.'s first campaign rally would occur at Memorial Stadium.
"A lot of people come up to me and ask, 'Why do you expect to need a place as large as the stadium for your first rally?'" Batkunin said. "The answer is simple: free beer."
It appears that campus is full of such supporters. In a recent poll of 2,000 students, 15 percent said they would vote for Delta Force and 15 percent would vote for Campus Cause. The remaining 70 percent of the polled students said they were going to vote for the new party.

The talent pool of basketball prospects appears to be thinning for the Kansas men's basketball team only one week from the start of the late sising period.
SAN FRANCISCO
JUNE 1988
Kevin Houston, a 6-foot 5-small forward from Seward County Community College in Liberal, said he scratched the Jayhawks from his short list of schools on Sunday.
Houston said yesterday that there seemed to be a lack of interest from Kansas coaches.
"They haven't called me since last week, so there must not be any interest." Houston said. "If they had been interested in me, they would have put the head coach on the phone just like every other school had done. So now I'm looking elsewhere."
Houston said that Indiana, Michigan, Wisconsin, Virginia and Miami (Fla.) remained options. He expects to make a decision in early May.
Crider: Has given the Jayhawks an oral agreement.
Recruiting analyst Bob Gibbons considered Houston to be the top option to replace Jayhawk forward Paul Pierce if the All-American decides to enter the NBA draft. Pierce might decide as early as this week
The Jayhawks have
one scholarship available, but another two could be used if Pierce turns pro and the one-year scholarship given to former walk on Terry Nooner is not renewed next season.
But some prospects might be wavering from Kansas as next week approaches.
The Jayhawks already have signed Jeff Boschee, a 6-1 point guard from Valley City (N.D.) High School, and has received an oral commitment from John Crider, a 64 shooting guard from Horton (Kan.) High School.
Rashard Lewis, a 6-10 forward/ center from Alief (Texas) Elig High School, has narrowed his list to Kansas and Florida State. But Gibbons reported that Lewis was 90 percent sure he would enter the NBA Draft.
Kansas coach Roy Williams said he hoped to sign two more players in the late signing period, which starts April 8 and lasts for one month.
Brandon Dean, a 6-1 point guard from Ouachita Parish High School in Monroe, La., has scheduled visits for Florida State and Arkansas, but not for Kansas. Dean said that he wanted to visit Kansas and that he hoped to choose a school by mid-April.
Williams wanted another guard to bolster a backcourt that will lose Ryan Robertson, Jelani Janisse and Chris Martin after next season.
Kansas guard Billy Thomas will be one of 64 players hoping to draw the attention of NBA scouts at the 46th annual Portsmouth (Va.) Invitational Tournament.
The tournament begins tonight and ends Saturday. Some of the top players will be invited to the Nike Desert Classic on April 7-11 in Phoenix.
Thomas' team will play its first game at 8 p.m. tomorrow. His teammates include Jeff Sheppard of Kentucky, Shammond Williams of North Carolina and Aaron Hutchins of Marquette.
Big 12 Conference players attending the tournament include Kelley Thames (Missouri), Brett Robisch (Oklahoma State), Corey Brewer and Evan Wiley (Oklahoma).
Jayhawks courting victory Tennis teams winning on the road
By Erin Thompson Kansan sportswriter
Riding high on a bevy of important wins, the Kansas men's and women's tennis teams will look to extend their winning streaks this afternoon.
The men will face No. 37 Tulsa today and Missouri tomorrow at the Robinson tennis courts.
The men fared well during the spring break showing at the Big 10 Blue Gray National Collegiate Tennis Classic, where the Jayhawks advanced to the semifinals after knocking off 16th-ranked Auburn in the first round.
"We're getting better," said Kansas men's head coach Mark Riley. "We still haven't played with a whole team. But we're finding ways to win. Different guys have stepped up."
Enrique Abaroa, the No. 1 singles player, injured his back early in the season but returned during spring break. He lost four matches and had to pull out of the match against Nevada-Las Vegas on Friday. Riley said Abaroa was questionable for tomorrow's match.
The Jayhawks are expecting a tough match from Tulsa and are looking to continue to play well, Riley said.
Missouri should not be as big of a challenge as Tulsa. Riley said it would allow some of the players who have not played as much to gain experience.
The improvements the Jayhawks have made in doubles play aided in the wins. In all three matches they won, the Jayhawks won the doubles point.
Another important factor in the improvements is that players are beginning to take charge where they weren't before. Riley said.
"We're not standing around waiting to win," he said. "Each person is taking responsibility for themselves."
The Jayhawks defeated No. 14 Pepperdine and No. 22 Southern California last weekend.
The women's tennis team will try to continue its five-match winning streak when it travels to Kansas State today.
"It's tough to go on the
road and play," Kansas women's coach Roland Thornqvist said. "The conditions were not conducive to tennis. It was very windy, and we did a good job of keeping our heads. We competed as well as I've ever seen this team compete."
Against K-State, the Jayhawks will see some new challenges. The Wildcats have three new players playing at the No. 2, 3, and 4 singles spots and should provide competition for the Jayhawks, Thorngvist said.
"We're going to have to play well to come out of Manhattan with a win," he said.
B.
"We're pretty confident," he said. "We just have to be careful not to get overconfident. We're going to be in each match we play from here on out, so we have to take care of the little things at practice. But this team does a good job of staying focused."
Remaining focused could be the largest obstacle for the Jayhawks during the remainder of the season, Thornovist said.

Commentary
Commentary Basketball fans search for sports in lieu of NCAA tourney games
Two nights ago, as I watched the NCAA championship game come to a close, I suddenly was overcome by a terrible sense of dread.
Things seemed normal. Nothing was really out of place. But still, something was not right. I immediately went down the list of things that always seem to induce that sickening feeling in the back of my throat.
At first, I could not put my finger on what was wrong.
My wallet was still in back pocket, and my car keys were not locked in my running car. That was good.
I scavenged through my backpack and found my checkbook as well as all my school notes. That also was good.
Finally, I looked down at my hands.
Yes, I still had all 10 of my fingers. (Hey, listen, maybe you don't chronically worry about having all your fingers, but I do, so back off.)

And then suddenly,
it happens, goormy sellers basketball
I have two choices: find a suitable substitute or seek immediate therapy.
The NBA. This is the closest thing that I could find to college basketball. I mean, they basically are playing the same game.
This, I think, could be the cure for my college basketball blues.
Well, because therapy could be expensive, I'm thinking that the suitable substitute route is the way to go ... let's examine the candidates:
But really, who am I kidding?
Except for about two weeks in June, I would rather have my eyes riddled with needles than watch an entire NBA game. Just try to sit through a game from start to finish. If you can, you are a better person than I.
Professional basketball has been, and always will be, a vastly inferior product to its college counterpart.
That brings us to...
Major League Soccer. I love soccer. I could watch it all day. Really. But, even I cannot get excited about the mighty MLS. The only thing more boring than Americanized soccer is...
Major League Baseball.
But — and no offense to Kansas baseball coach Bobby Randall —baseball just does not do it for me. The pitching is mediocre. The players are overpaid. The owners are greedy. And it seems that every team either plays on AstroTurf or in a dome. Baseball is five months that I have to kill until football season starts.
I know that it is America's pastime. I know that it has a long and storied history. I appreciate its historical significance.
On the bright side, however, baseball does appear to be picking up steam since the 1994 strike debacle. Last year delivered a great World Series and a semi-exciting regular season. I'm going to give baseball another chance this year, but make no mistake. college basketball it ain't.
Weird.I know.
NASCAR. During the last two years, I have lived with a kid that lives and breathes car racing.
I will not be watching much NASCAR this spring, but if you want to impress your friends with car-racing knowledge (and God knows why they would be impressed with car-racing knowledge), throw around the term "four acrest."
Trust me, you will sound like you know what you're talking about — even if you don't.
The NHL. I still choose to live in the delusional world where only kids from Minnesota like to watch hockey.
I don't, so on to the next sport.
Okay, so I am starting to run out of suitable substitutes. But, I think that I still can overcome the lack of college basketball.
My plan: take in as much spring football as possible and, with a little financial support, plenty of therapy.

Jayhawk baseball slides past SMSU in close game
The Kansas baseball team squeezed by Southwest Missouri State 13-12 in Springfield, Mo., yesterday behind a five-run ninth inning that included a three-run home run by sophomore right fielder Les Walront and a two-run double by senior center fielder Clint Wrick.
The Jayhawks (15-12), coming off a 1-2 weekend series against Oklahoma, pounded out 18 hits and three home runs, alided by a stiff wind blowing toward field field. Junior catcher Josh Dimmick and sophomore left fielder Brett Kappelmann hit home runs. Southwest Missouri State (11-8) also had deep blasts.
"I have to give respect to our pitchers. With that wind, they could have hit 15 homers on us," Walrond said. "The pitchers did a good job battling today."
Junior pitcher Josh Bailey started, working five and one-third innings while allowing six runs. Junior pitcher Chris Williams picked up the victory in three and two-thirds innings of five-run relief.
Walrond, who occasionally has been ineffective at his newly expanded role combining pitching and hitting, came through with his first home run of 1998 after pounding out six last season. Southwest Missouri State pitcher Shanye Ferrier fired a high fast ball and Walrond found his power swing.

"Coaches be patient and look for a good pitch to hit," Walrond said. "He left it up and I was
Wrick sliced home the winning runs with a hard line drive that bounced off the pitcher and into right field and capped off an important comeback.
"To score 10 in the last three innings was really something," Kansas head coach Bobby Randall said. "Our bats were really quiet the first seven innings. We needed one of those comeback wins."

Men's NCAA championship yields low ratings for CBS
The rating is 6 percent below the 18.9 for Arizona's 1997 overtime win against Kentucky and 22 percent below the 22.7 from the Michigan-Duke final in 1992. Since that game, the rating has slipped every year except 1997.
Kentucky's victory against Utah on Monday night got a 17.8 rating/28 share, the lowest for the NCAA championship game since the 1972 UCLA-Florida State final, played in the afternoon, got a 16.0/35.
NEW YORK — The championship of one of the most exciting NCAA tournaments in history brought CBS the lowest prime-time title game rating ever.
Since 1992, the ratings for the NBA Finals have jumped 18 percent since 1992, the Super Bowl is up 10 percent since that year and the World Series has slipped 17 percent.
The championship game did have a higher rating than last year's NBA Finals, which averaged a 16.8/20 for six games. The highest-rated game from the Bulls-Jazz series, the fifth game, got a 20.1/35.
The NCAA tournament as a whole, with 18 games decided by fewer than three points or in overtime, ended at 7.3/17, 2 percent higher than the 7.2/17 last year. That rating is tied with 1995 for the second lowest since CBS began broadcasting the entire tournament in 1991. Last year's tournament averaged a 7.2/17.

Tourney memories will persist
1998's greatness pondered by fans
The Associated Press
SAN ANTONIO — Let the argument begin: Was this the best tournament ever?
Plenty of NCAA tournaments have had great first and second rounds or tremendous regional weekends. There have been Final Fours that have become part of the sport's lore.
The 1998 version started strong, stayed exciting and finished with the greatest comeback in the history of championship games.
Sixteen games were decided by a three-pointer or less, and four games, including one of the national semifinals, went to overtime.
There will be memories of Bryce Drew's first-round buzzer-bearer against Mississippi that made Valparaiso a household name and coaches and fathers smart for a day
or two; of Richard Hamilton falling down in the lane after he let go Connecticut's third shot in the final eight seconds to beat Washington in the regional semifinals; of Jarred West calmly walking the ball up the court before beating the buzzer and Cincinnati in the second round.
Uuah upset Arizona and North Carolina, two No. 1 seeds, on the way to the title game, raising the profile of its unheralded players and giving coach Rick Majerus a national stage.
There also was Rhode Island, which sent Kansas to another crushing pre-Final Four loss before the Rams were stung by Stanford's wild final-minute comeback. Rhode Island's run brought Jim Harrick back to the regional final three years after winning the national championship and two years after being fired by UCLA.
FINAL FOUR
SAN ANTONIO
Kentucky c o a ch T u b b y Smith still remembers the all-white Kentucky teams of the Adolph
But most of all there was Kentucky, which overcame double-digit deficits in the second half of its last three games and captured its seventh national championship.
Rupp era and the memories are not fond ones. When he took the Kentucky job last May, there were concerns that as the first African-American Wildcat coach, he would be treated especially hard if the team didn't measure up to Rick Pitino's national championship team of 1996 and runner-up team of last year. The championship finally put those concerns to rest.
Smith was asked if he felt this was one of the best and most exciting tournaments ever.
"It is hard to appreciate it when you are in the midst of it because you are so involved in preparing your team and watching tapes," he
said. "You don't have a chance to enjoy it until it's over."
College basketball briefly moved from the basketball court to the court room last week when two Northwestern basketball players were indicted for shaving points in three Wildcat games from 1994-95. But even that couldn't overshadow the tournament.
“It's the greatest NCAA tournament ever. I don't even think there is one that can come even close,” said New Jersey Nets coach John Calipari, who coached Massachusetts in a Final Four game just two years ago.
"The problem is that every NCAA now is going to be judged against this one, and that is just not fair. Next year's NCAA will be judged the same way, like if there is not 100 games decided by a point or overtime, we'll all be upset and say this is boring."
Hurry up and start the discussion:
Was this the best NCAA tournament ever? Practice starts Oct.
17, so the talk can go on for a while.
Texas coach plays at public relations
The Associated Press
AUSTIN — Tom Penders has been hitting the sports radio talk-show circuit the way a politician hits the campaign trail.
He will say how much he loves the University of Texas, his players and coaching.
Occasionally, he will remind listeners that he has been lucky in his 27 years as a college coach to have been to the postseason 15 times, including eight NCAA tournaments in 10 seasons at Texas.
Penders is using everything he has as the school nears the end of an investigation into the release of basketball player Luke Axtell's academic progress report to a radio station.
The findings could come today, but this story has dragged on for two weeks.
The implosion of the Texas basketball team during the past month has become all about spin control, and not the kind The Longhorns use when they are attempting to drive through defenders for a dunk.
BRIAN KENNEDY
and school administrators may have irreconcilable differences.
University sources say Penders
It started with Penders' very public courtship of the head coaching job at Rutgers last year as his Texas contract was being renegotiated.
Penders: Lately has said on radio how much helikes Texas
With the bargaining power of a Sweet 16 appearance in the NCAA tournament and a heralded freshman class coming in, Penders received a five-year contract extension, roughly $550,000 per season. Texas athletics director DeLoss Dodds felt betrayed.
Few could have projected what would happen this year.
First, the 52-year-old Penders had a defibrillator and pacemaker implanted in his chest to monitor an enlarged heart, causing him to miss
the opening two games of the season. Then his team, loaded with young talent, struggled.
The day after a semifinal loss to Oklahoma in the Big 12 tournament, freshmen Axell, Chris Mihm, Bernard Smith and sophomore Gabe Muonekue met with Dodds at his home, arranged by Bill Wendlandt, who played basketball at Texas from 1980-84.
With Axtell and Muoneke doing most of the talking, the clear message was the players did not believe in Penders, his system or their development under the coach. They were looking to transfer.
Since then, things have whirled out of control: Penders suspended Axtell indefinitely for academic reasons; Axtell accused Penders of verbal abuse, lying and retaliation; Axtell's midsemester grades were released to a local radio station by Texas assistant coach Eddie Oran; university officials began a probe into the grade release that has dragged on for nearly two weeks and Penders reported a possible NCAA rules violation involving a
Texas booster and Mihm's parents.
Texas booster and ninth parent.
There is no chance that Penders,
the winningest coach in Texas history (208-110) will be leading the Longhors next year, according to a high-ranking university source who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity last week.
Penders is professing his love for the university in an effort to get the $2.2 million that remains on his contract with a reassignment.
If Penders were reassigned, Texas would pay about $4 million just to remove coaches it no longer wanted.
Penders has been adamant that he had nothing to do with Oran's release of Axtell's grade report and has vowed to fight the school legally if he is fired instead of reassigned.
"I've got 27 years of established reputation in this business," Penders said. "I've done nothing wrong."
Comeback style pays off for'Cats in NCAA victory
SAN ANTONIO — a new coach.
No superstar. Another title.
The Associated Press
"Some people overlooked us this season," Kentucky guard Wayne Turner said. "I think when you look at this team, it was an attitude of us against the world."
These are the Comeback 'Cats,
the NCAA champions. They
came back against Duke, Stanford
and finally Utah, winning
78-69 Monday night for their second national title in three years.
"It's amazing what you can accomplish when you don't care who gets the credit," said coach Tubby Smith.
The Wildcats rallied from 10 points down at the half, the largest comeback in the history of title games. But the comeback, in essence, started after last year's team lost to Arizona in the championship game.
All-American forward Ron Mercer turned pro and coach Rick Pitino no longer could withstand the lure of an NBA return. Athletics director C.M. Newton wasted no time in hiring Georgia's Tubby Smith, the first African American to coach the program.
"We believed from day one that we could win it," Smith said. "That never changed. Every team that throws the ball up on the first day of practice back in October believes they can do it. If you don't believe it will happen, then it never occurs."
Inheriting a team without superstars, Smith built a team on the principles of hard work and unselfishness.
"We had some really good times and some really bad times on and off the court," said senior guard Jeff Sheppard. "Some things happened to this team that we couldn't do anything
Kentucky (35-4) hit rough spots early in the season, with losses to Louisville. Florida and Mississippi.

Some was a reliable backup.
When forward Allen Edwards slumped mildway through the season, Smith stuck with him and used Hesimu Evans off the bench.
Edwards regained his touch during the postseason when Evans continued as a strong reserve player.
"Coach Smith always told us that individuals can win games, but it
takes teams to win championships," said Shepard, who was voted the Final Four's most valuable player.

Turner: Guard says team was over-looked this season.
"We did a good job of staying in sh a p e throughout the year," said forward Scott Padgett

"He is such a great man," Shepard said of his coach. "He taught us first to be men and play basketball second."

Opening Day Royals defeat Orioles in opener
MOST USED

The Associated Press
So much for an encore.
Tim Belcher, starting in place of the injured Kevin Appier, allowed
BALTIMORE — A year ago, the Baltimore Orioles beat the Kansas City Royals on opening day and remained in first place for the rest of the season.
three hits in seven scoreless innings yesterday as the Royals opened the season by defeating Mike Mussina and the Orioles 4-1.
Few people expect the Royals to parlay the victory into their first playoff berth since
KC
Balcher: Started for Kevin Appier in Royals' opener.
1985, but the young team genuinely was excited about getting off to a good start — especially against a star-studded club that plans to make a third-consecutive trip to the postseason.
"This sets the tone, t>get out of the gate on a positive note," said
Royals closer Jeff Montgomery,
who pitched a perfect ninth inning.
Rookie Larry Sutton drove in three runs, and Jeff King went 2-for-2 and scored twice before leaving in the fourth inning with a sore back. It was the fifth-straight time the Royals opened against Baltimore, and the second time they won.
"Today, we played good baseball, and we won," said Tony Muser, Kansas City manager. "We have 161 to play. But even if we lost today, I thought we played well. That's been my intent all along — not to be intimidated by an opponent."
Belcher did not appear apprehensive about facing the Orioles. After compiling an 11.66 ERA in spring training, the right-hander faced only one bater more than the minimum and did not permit a runner past first base.
"Yes, it is important," Belcher said. "You get that good adrenaline and emotional lift from a win like this. Particularly when you're on the road in this park against that club. I mean, they've been pretty good for a couple of years."
Baltimore lost despite getting 11 strikeouts in eight innings by
Mussina, who allowed three runs and six hits. Ray Miller, who debuted as Orioles manager, could not do much except watch Belcher mow down one batter after another.

"He did what a veteran pitcher has to do. He came right at you," Miller said. "I thought Mussina did a good job, too. I'll take that kind of pitching from him all year."
After Belcher left, consecutive two-out doubles by Joe Carter and Chris Hoiles against Jose Rosado got Baltimore to 3-1 in the eighth. Scott Service struck out pinch-hitter Harold Baines to end the lone Orioles threat.
"The worst thing about today is that people were waiting for something to cheer about, and we couldn't do anything about it," Miller said. "Offensively, we just didn't get the job done."
The previous two openers at Camden Yards were postponed because
of bad weather, but the game-time temperature was a summer-like 91 degrees. Belcher, putting a chill on the crowd of 46,820, allowed only three runners and struck out six.
Appier, who had started every opener for Kansas City since 1991, was scratched this year after shoulder surgery.
Mussina pitched well this time but experienced the same problem he encountered in last year's AL championship series — no offensive support.
"They got some runs off me, and Belcher pitched a great game. You've got to give him credit," Mussina said. "They got the hits when they needed them and scored runs, and we got little going the whole day."
Kansas City went ahead in the second when King singled, took third on Terry Pendleton's double and scored on Dean Palmer's groundout.
Notes: Kansas City was 0-5 in road openers since 1983. ... Carter batted seventh for Baltimore, the first time he has batted lower than cleanup since 1990. The last time he hit sixth was with Cleveland in 1986.
Reds trade pitcher day before opener
The Associated Press
CINCINNATI — Dave Burba walked into the Cincinnati Reds clubhouse yesterday morning with a bag of golf clubs slung over his shoulder, a cup of coffee in his hand and a look of disbelief on his face.
All spring, he had looked forward to this day and the chance to make his first opening-day start in front of 30 relatives and friends. Instead, the Reds traded him to the Cleveland Indians late Monday afternoon for minor leaguer Sean Casey.
"I'd like to thank (general manager Jim Bowden) for trading me to a team that has a chance to go to the World Series," Burba said. "I'm looking forward to it. I may not sound like it right now. I'm still dumbfounded about being traded on the eve of opening day."
He was not alone. Burba's teammates were adjusting to the idea of trading a proven starting pitcher for a highly resarded prospect.
Barry Larkin said, "It's a shocker
as far as the timing."
The trade sent a clear message that the Reds do
REDS
not expect to contend in the NL Central for a few years. Instead, they are slashing payroll and concentrating on developing young players.
The Indians made the move to stay in position for a postseason run. With two pitchers on the disabled list, they needed another starter.
The trade started a whirlwind evening for Bura, who had to go to the airport to pick up his wife right after learning he had been traded.
"I'm going to a good team," he said.
"Hopefully, I can go to the World Series now. I'll trade that for an opening day start."
Casey, 23, was the Indians' minor league player of the year in 1997 and has a .348 career average. Casey arrived in the clubhouse about an hour after Burba left, took batting practice and tactfully accepted the praise.
Marlins hook Cubs in win
The Associated Press
MIAMI — For at least one game, these Florida Martins looked like those World Series champions of last year.
It was a familiar start for the Cubs, who set a National League record by losing their first 14 games in 1997 en route to a last-place finish. Several offseason moves have Cubs fans hoping for their first pennant since 1945, but Kevin Tapani cooled any early
fan fever by allowing nine runs.
With a revamped roster that includes 14 rookies, the Marlins scored six runs in the first inning and opened the season by beating the Chicago Cubs 11-6 yesterday.
The game gave the sellout crowd of 41,126 its money's worth — they even got to boo Marlins owner Wayne Huizenga, who ordered the team dismantled last winter.
Otherwise, the crowd had only applause for the home team. The cheering began when the championship flag was raised in center field and a championship banner was unveiled down the left-field foul line.
Left fielder Cliff Floyd, taking the place of the departed Moses Alou, led off the first inning with a double. World Series hero Edgar Renteria walked, and 26-year-old Ryan Jackson single home a run in his
first major-league at-bat.
Sheffield fouled three 3-2 pitches, then launched a drive into the upper deck just inside the left-field pole.
Rookie Mark Kotsy singled and continued to third when the ball eluded right fielder Sammy Sosa for an error. Craig Counsell tripled and scored the final run of the inning on rookie Josh Booty's groundout.
Cubs newcomer Henry Rodriguez, acquired in a trade from Montreal. hit a three-run homer in the first inning. Another offseason acquisition, Jeff Blauer, singled home a run in the third inning, then scored on Kevin Orie's double to trim Florida's lead to 6-5.
Atlanta cans Brewers in debut
The Associated Press
ATLANTA — For eight innings, the Milwaukee Brewers looked like a team that always had played in the National League. In the ninth, they looked like NJ. rookies.
Gerald Williams trapped home from third after catcher Mike Matheny's attempted pickoff throw skipped into left field in the ninth inning, giving the Atlanta Braves a 2-1 victory in their season opener yesterday.
The Brewers became the first major
It was the Brewers' first NL game after 28 years in the American League.
"This is our style of baseball," said Chipper Jones, Atlanta third baseman. "We pitch, play defense and hopefully get some timely hits."
Braves
In the top of the
ninth, Kerry Ligtenberg walked the bases loaded with two outs, and Jeff Cirl strayed from first and was picked off by a throw from catcher Javy Lopez.
Williams walked with one out in the bottom of the ninth and took third when pinch-hitter Keith Lockhart singled. Bob Wickman struck out Andruw Jones, but Matheny threw to third when Lockhart for second on the pitch.
The throw bounced past Cirillo into left, and Williams came home with the deciding run.
"To fight like we did, then lose like
that ... it’s frustrating," said Phil Garner, kingeeper manager.
The Brewers still are new in the National League. And most of the day, they looked like they would fit right in.
Cal Eldred, making his second opening-day start, pitched six strong innings for the Brewers and even picked up the first hit for a Milwaukee pitcher since 1993, singling in the fifth.
Greg Maddux had three walks in seven innings — an astonishing total for a pitcher who walked only 20 last season.
"I've had better games, but I had some breaks," said Maddux, the Cy Young runner-up a year ago. "I'm not afraid to walk guys. I'm going to walk some guys this year. I think you have to."

ST. LOUIS - One down, 60 to go.
Mark McGraw began the chase for Roger Maris' record with a dramatic grand slam yesterday, leading the St. Louis Cardinals to a victory against the Los Angeles Dodgers 6-0.
"Opening day, bases loaded, the star, the modern-day Babe Ruth, comes up and hits a grand slam," teammate Gary Gaetti said.
A sellout crowd of 47,972 screamed in anticipation when Delino DeShields walked on a full count to load the bases with two outs in the fifth inning and McGwire on deck.
McGwire did not disappoint the fans, hitting a towering drive that cleared the left field wall and broke open a scoreless game
"It's an awesome feeling." McGwire said.
"How can you not get chills?"
McGwire, who hit 58 home runs last season and fell three short of Maris' record, became the first Cardinals player to hit a grand slam on opening day. The shot spoiled Rupert Murdoch's first game as
Dodgers owner.

McGwire hit seven home runs in spring training, then showed he was ready for the real games. Five of his home runs last season went 500 feet or
farther, but his 10th career grand slam traveled a mere 364 feet.
Dodgers left-fielder Todd Hollandsworth appeared to be drawing a bead on the ball, drifting back slowly toward the wall.
"I guarantee if you ask him, he'll say he mishit it." Hollandsworth said. "I thought that ball was going to stay in the yard, but this guy has got power that I can't relate to."
On the way back to the dugout, McGwire traded vicious forearm smashes with teammates. Moments later, cheers from a sellout crowd at Busch Stadium brought him out for a curtain call.
McGwire also proved he was human, striking out twice. He took a called third strike with nobody on for the last out in the first inning. In the seventh inning, he fanned with runners on first and second on
a checked swing against Frank Lankford. Gaetti and pinch-hitter Willie McGee added RBI singles in the eighth inning.
Todd Stottlemyre, making his 300th career appearance and third opening-day start, did not allow a Dodger runner until Mike Piazza singled with two outs in the fourth inning. Rookie Paul Konerko singled with one out in the fifth inning and singled again with two out in the seventh inning.
Cardinals reliever Braden Looper made his major-league debut in the ninth inning and struck out the side.
Ramon Martinez, making his fifth opening-day start, ran into trouble in the fifth inning when Gaetti led off with a double. Tom Lampkin singled before DeShields' walk loaded the bases.
Notes:
Before the game, there was a moment of silence for the late Harry Caray, who broadcast Cardinals games for 25 years from 1944-69.
The Cardinals and Dodgers had not faced each other in the opener since 1984, when Dave LaPoint opposed Fernando Valenzuela in an 11-7 Louis victory.
Ray Lankford stole his 200th career base in the 19th inning.
White Sox overpower Rangers with 9-2 win
The Associated Press
ARLINGTON, Texas — Optimistic as he may be, Jerry Manuel could not have expected his debut as Chicago White Sox manager to go this well.
the heart of his lineup — Frank Thomas, Albert Belle and Robin Ventura — each drove in two runs. Outfielder Mike Cameron and rookie shortstop Mike Caruso made run-saving defensive plays. And starting pitcher Jaime Navarro finally looked worthy of his big contract.
The result was a 9-2 victory against the Texas Rangers in yesterday's season opener.
"I'm satisfied," said Manuel, who replaced Terry Bevington following a 80-81 record last season.
Manuel said he was nervous when the game began, probably even more so after Chicago's first 12 battles went down in order against John Burkett, bringing
dreams of a perfect game to a crowd of 45.909.
Belle got Chicago's first hit just over the glove of first baseman Will Clark. Three

pitches later, Ventura hit a high drive above the center-field fence.
"He went 2-0 on me, and I just hit it," Ventura said. "I wasn't trying to do anything with it."
Cameron hit a two-run single with two outs, Thomas followed with an RBI double and then Belle drove in two runs with his second single, knocking out Burkett.
Thomas' second RBI came in the seventh on another double. Chicago scored again in the ninth inning to go up 9-0 as Charlie O'Brien singled home Magglio Ordonez.

Cyclones build up speed, size
Coach stresses improved defense for 1998 season
The Associated Press
AMES, Iowa — Iowa State should be a bigger and quicker football team in 1998.
Coach Dan McCarney said that those two traits also make the Cyclones a better team.
IOWA STATE
COLUMNES
Iowa State is in its second week of spring practice after an offseason that emphasized improving speed, size and strength more than pure conditioning.
McCarney said improvement in those areas was critical after the Cyclones were manhandled during the 1997 season, particularly on defense. Iowa State went 1-10 on the field but was 2-9 on paper because of a forfeit by Colorado.
"We were outphysicaled, outmuscled and outhit a lot of games last year," McCarney said. "So we really wanted to put some time this winter into strength and size development."
McCarney said that every starter on defense should be able to run 40
yards in 4.8 seconds or faster, which would be a first in his tenure.
"This is the
"This is the first time since we've been here that I think we'll have a legitimate Division I defense," he said.
McCarney had expressed similar optimism about his defense before last season, and it proved to be unfounded. Iowa State gave up an average of 44.8 points a game, which put them last in the Big 12 and 110th out of 112 Division I-A teams in scoring defense.
The Cyclones also were last in the league in total defense and pass defense.
Nine starters are back on defense, but the depth chart at the end of spring practice might not mean much because 16 junior college transfers will arrive in the fall, including 10 who play defense.
Two other junior college transfers who play defense already are enrolled and are practicing now: linebacker Lynn Hadnot and defensive back Jeff Waters.
"I don't think any spots are secure," said linebacker Dave Brcka, a two-year starter. "No one
had a good season last year, and
every spot's up for grabs. Lynn
came and he's going to push me
for my job."
The most open position is wide receiver, which was gutted by the departure of seniors Ed Williams, Ty Watley and Daman Green.
Kevin Wilson moved from defense and Mike Brantley are the starters now, but that likely will change in the fall with the arrival of junior college recruits Robert Brown, Kenyatta Burris, Damien Groce and Reggie Moorer.
Quarterback Todd Bandhauer will return after throwing for 2,515 yards and a school-record 20 touchdowns, and tailback Darren Davis is hoping to stay healthy for a full season. Davis ran 1,005 yards during an injury-bleaued 1997 season.
"We've got the right attitude," Bandhauer said. "It takes a bunch of guys who play together as a team."
Bandhauer will have a lot of new faces in front of him this spring.
Three returnees in the offensive line, Bengal Dogwill, Marc Cortez and Ben Bruns, will miss spring practice because of injuries. That opens the door for a promising group of freshmen who were red-shirted last season.
Also new is Pete Hoener, who replaced Steve Loney as offensive coordinator.
"This a real important time," McCarney said. "They've got a new position coach, a new offense, a lot of new faces in there. That's a real key area for us this spring."
Another veteran lineman, Ben Beaudet, has moved from guard to center because Hoener wants an experienced player snapping the ball to Bandhauer.
The staff has two other new coaches, assistant head coach Nick Quartaro and secondary coach Mike Grant.
Many feel this is a make-or-break season for McCarney, who has won only six games in three years. McCarney, though, does not feel his job is threatened.
"I don't come to practice feeling any pressure that we have to go to a bowl game or we have to win six games, that they're going to spin the revolving door at Iowa State one more time and bring in somebody else," he said. "I can't control all that stuff. All I can do is come every day with an upbeat, positive approach, which we do."
Spring practice will end with the annual intrasquad game on April 18.
Politicians praise K-State football
Snyder honored for turnaround
TOPEKA — Kansas State's remarkable turnaround in football during the past decade drew accolades yesterday at the Statehouse.
The Associated Press
Gov. Bill Graves called the Wild

Reps. Kent Glasscock and
PACIFIC
Jeff Peterson of Manhattan introduced the team to the House and called it one of the outstanding sports stories in the nation.
Sen. Lana Oleen, also of Manhattan, who presented the team to the Senate, said Kansas State had enlisted a legion of fans from border to border since Coach Bill Snyder brought respectability to the program.
"When the Wildcats went to Tempe (Arizona for the Fiesta Bowl on New Year's Eve), a tempest of purple went with them," Oleen said, referring to the school's primary color.
Kansas State had the losingest major college football program in the nation when Snyder arrived in 1969. In the past five years, the Wildcats have won 48 games and have made five straight bowl appearances.
Glasscock said it took truly yeoman's work by Snyder to accomplish that.
Graves and the lawmakers paid tribute specifically to Kansas State's 1997 football team, which won 10 of 11 regular-season games, swamped Syracuse 35-18 in the Fiesta Bowl and finished seventh in the final Associated Press poll.
They also made numerous references to the Wildcats' rise to football prominence.
Snyder was accompanied by 70 players, dressed alike in blue sports jackets and tan slacks.
The players and their coach rimmed the floor of the Senate, which unanimously adopted a resolution praising the team for its accomplishments and then went to the House for similar recognition before being greeted individually by Graves in his office, then attended a second-floor rotunda ceremony at which Graves smoke.
"I'm really envious of the applause you got in both chambers (of the Legislature). I only hope I can some day get as much applause for my accomplishments."
About 200 people attended the rotunda ceremony.
Graves also said he had a confession to make — noting he lost the coin toss for the Wildcats in the

1997 Cotton Bowl when Kansas State was beaten by Brigham Young, 19-15.
"I want you all to know I take personal responsibility for the loss in the Cotton Bowl a couple of years ago," he said.
Snyder spoke in each chamber and at the ceremony, touting his players' involvement in community service. He also commented on what he said was unfortunate publicity given to quarterback Michael Bishop, who was arrested and then exonerated from involvement in an altercation in the Aggieville district in late February.
Commentary
Woods' slump fuels rivals on the links
By Ron Sirak The Associated Press
I am the winner of the game. I will be the best player in the world.
Words once written are frequently eaten, and there is a strong possibility the ones that follow will be quite tasty a week from Sunday at the Masters. But here they are:
Tiger Woods is currently the
third-best
player in the
world
maybe fifth
Woods: Say his play is ahead of last year's schedule.
PGA Tour events. Since winning five of his first 16 starts on tour, he is 1-for-19.
Of course, it is a measure of his greatness that the issue of "What's wrong with Tiger?" would even arise after a 1-for-19 streak during which he had several second-and third-place finishes — career years for some players.
It also is a measure of the extremes to which "Tigermania" went last year. After Woods won the Masters by 12 strokes, expectations grew way out of proportion.
Bookies in London had the chances of Woods winning the Grand Slam — something never done — at a ridiculous 30-1, better chances than the 33-1 odds they gave Colin Montgomery on winning the U.S. alone.
True, the temporary insanity of those expectations was triggered by a remarkable streak of golf.
Beginning with the second nine at the Masters, Woods played his next 197 holes a mindboggling 55 under par, shooting 10 consecutive rounds in the 60s.
Woods played the final 163 holes of the Masters 22 under par, was 17 under in winning his next time out at the Byron Nelson and was 16 under par through 62 holes at the Colonial as he tried to win his third consecutive event.
The magic ended on the ninth hole of the final round at Colonial when Woods, faced with a relatively easy-approach shot, dumped it into the water in front of the
green. He finished tied for fourth.
But the real answer to "What's wrong with Tiger?" is that the other guys have gotten better.
During that time, Ernie Els has won the U.S. Open, the Buick Classic and the Bay Hill Invitational.
Since that ball splashed into the water at the Colonial, the Western Open in July is Woods' only PGA Tour victory.
Justin Leonard took the Kemper Open, the British Open and The Players Championship and finished second in the PGA Championship.
Davis Love III won the PGA Championship and the Buick Challenge.
David Duval won at Kingsmill, Disney, the Tour Championship and Tucson.
And while Els and Leonard appear to have their games in high gear going into the Masters, Woods was missing fairways, greens and putts at The Players Championship.
Woods, however, insists there is no problem.
"I'm much more ahead of schedule than last year," he said. "Look at my record. Every Sunday I've had a chance to win."
Basically, that's accurate. Woods finished second, third and second in his first three events of this year. But in his last three he has finished ninth, 13th and 35th — not the kind of momentum to take into Augusta.
In Els, Woods has an adversary who not only has a perfect game for Augusta National but also relishes the rivalry.
"I think Tiger should be regarded as the best player," Els said. "He's only 22, and he's probably going to get better."
But Els is playing with more fire than ever, and that fire is fueled in part by his tussle with Woods for the top spot in the World Golf Rankings, where Woods is No. 1 and Els is No. 2.
"But I'm right up there." Els said.
"And several other guys are right up there. I'm 28 now, and I've won two majors, so feel like I belong."
It could well be that Woods will go to Augusta and successfully defend his Masters title. He could even duplicate his remarkable effort from last year.
But it would be wrong to assume it is a done deal. After all, Woods now is the third-best player in the world—maybe fifth.

Nagging won't make you quit.
It's hard to stop smoking. And it doesn't help when friends and family bug you about it.
So, maybe you should try the "No-Nag, No-Guilt" Quit Smoking Program. It's a positive-approach program based on what smokers said would help them quit.

1. Three pedestrians, including KU freshman Lisa Rosel, walk toward their car on the west side of Tennessee Street.
2. Rosel falls in the middle of the street while her companions are waiting at the corner.
3. A red Mitsubishi Montero hits Rosel. A witness said she might have been dragged as much as 75 feet.
"She would just smile and light up the room." Keirsey said.
Kelirey is spending time with Rosel's family in Overland Park.
Keirsey said her friend was a bright, caring and creative person. Rosel had won awards for her artwork in high school and loved to do ceramics. She had planned to major in advertising. Keirsey said.
"It's not real yet," she said. "I know that God took her for a reason, and she didn't feel any pain."
Jeremi Smith, Rosel's resident assistant, said Rosel had a gentle spirit that made people want to be near her.
"Lisa was always so happy and content with whatever life threw at her," said Smith, Erie sophomore. "She connected to a lot of people who are going to miss her."
Smith said the residents on the first floor of West GSP were a tight-knit group and said Rosel's death devastated them. She said Rosel's friends wanted her family to know how much Rosel cared about them.
Jennifer Wamelink, GSP-Corbin complex director, said a counselor met with hall residents yesterday.
In a prepared statement, Chancellor Robert Hemenway said he was saddened to learn of Rosel's death.
"I extend my personal condolences to Lisa's family and friends," Hemenway said. "University officials are in contact with Lisa's parents and will assist them in any way possible during this difficult time."
David Achtenberg, Rosel's uncle, said Rosel had lived in Overland Park her entire life and had attended Blue Valley Northwest High School.
A funeral service will be held 11:30 a.m. tomorrow at Louis Memorial Chapel, 6830 Troost Ave., in Kansas City, Mo. Interment will follow at Rosehill Cemetery.

Little information has been released about the accident that killed University of Kansas student Lisa Rosel.
The Overland Park freshman was killed Tuesday night after she fell in the street and was struck by a vehicle in the 1400 block of Tennessee Street, Lawrence police said. A 1997 Mitsubishi Montero driven by Matthew Vestal, Englewood, Colo., freshman, hit Rosel at 11:55 p.m.
Although the accident occurred within a block of three local bars — Bull Winkles, 1344 Tennessee St.; The Jayhawk Cafe, 1340-42 Ohio St.; and the Wagon Wheel Cafe, 507 W. 14th St.,—officer Mike Monroe said he could not say whether alcohol was involved in the accident.
Police have determined from a blood test how much, if any, alcohol was in Rosel's blood stream, Monroe said. Police will not release results of Vestal's or Rosel's alcohol tests until the district attorney reviews the test results.
"Any time we have a fatality accident like this, we check all parties involved for alcohol," Monroe said. "We did conduct a breath test here at the station."
Monroe also could not confirm if Vestal was speeding.
Rose, who was with two other KU students, was crossing Tennessee Street from east to west just south of 14th Street when she fell.
Monroe said Vestal was driving south on Tennessee Street and was unable to stop the automobile before striking Rosel.
"She was still on the ground when the car hit her," he said.
Rosel was taken to Lawrence Memorial Hospital, 325 Maine St., and was pronounced dead on arrival.
Monroe said Rosel and the other students were crossing the street to get to their automobile, a Ford Explorer parked on the west side of Tennessee Street.
Colbert said the turned away and when he looked out the window again, he saw Rosel walk into the street and fall as Vestal's automobile approached.
"I heard a lot of yelling outside my house, and I looked out to see if there was going to be a fight or something." he said.
"She just disappeared under the car, and she was dragged about 75 feet," he said.
John Colbert, Lenexa senior and Kansan columnist, witnessed the accident.
Sgt. George Wheeler said Rosel had been run over, but he could not confirm if she had been dragged.
"The main thing we're worried about is how fast he was going," Monroe said. "If there isn't any alcohol involved, that's the next thing we go to."
He said the three passengers in the Montero were Julie Barton, Littleton, Colo., freshman, and Linsay Wacholz and Lindsey McClean, Quincy, Ill., freshmen. He said the four people in the car were interviewed yesterday but that no one had been taken into custody.
Wheeler said police would not make arrests until officers' reports were completed and evidence was examined.
"It should be in the next day or two," he said.
Chancellor Robert Hemenway said in a prepared statement yesterday afternoon that he was interested in learning the details of the investigation.
"I await the results of the city of Lawrence's investigation into the circumstances of this tragic accident," he said.
Elaine Thomas, resident of the 1300 block of Tennessee Street, said she was concerned about the frequency of accidents in the area.
"When my grandchildren visit me, I don't let them off the porch because you have those cars flying by," she said.
Vestal and Barton could not be reached for comment. McClean and Wacholz said they had no comments about the incident.
Students can discard IDs for smart card
By Gerry Doyle
Kansan Staff Writer
Beginning Monday, the University will deal its students another card.
The new smart card IDs, which will replace the current KUIDs, can be picked up between 10 a.m. and 6 p.m. at the Kansas Room in the Kansas Union. The cards can be obtained at that location until April 21.
Lindy Eakin, associate provost, said students who wanted to get a card after the initial period would be charged $10. He also said Commerce Bank would be raffling off a mountain bike.

There will be no charge for the first card, but a replacement card will cost $15
Jeannette Johnson, assistant to the provost, said the cards' producer and all of the vendors involved with the project would attend. Because of this, students could have features on the card activated ranging from debit-card and ATM services to long-distance services, Johnson said.
"They will be there and have the equipment necessary to produce the cards," she said. "It would probably be quicker to do it now."
Tom Hutton, director of University Relations,
said the process probably would take fewer than five minutes. Hutton said there would be multiple stations where students could have their picture taken, then move down the line to add other functions to the card.
Hutton said that the multiple stations would smooth the process and that having a company experienced in producing the cards on hand also would help.
"What I'm told is that it's pretty quick," he said. "That's the advantage of partners. Cybermark has done this 75 or 85 times. I assume things will be pretty well-oiled. I don't know if people will find a lot of uses for the cards right away, but we're trying to get most people to come during this period."
Hutton said incoming freshmen would get their cards during orientation so that no one slipped through the cracks.
Brenda Selman, associate registrar, said that although the process was during the enrollment period, it was not connected to enrollment. With the hetic enriched process going on, handing out cards at the same time just was not an option, she said.
"It's timed to coincide with enrollment," she said. "Students now have a sense of what's going on next semester. But we have our hands full."
Affirmative action draws 200 supporters to rally, march

"Go to war for the poor. No justice, no peace," was the cry from about 200 supporters who attended the National Day of Action to Defend Affirmative Action rally yesterday afternoon in front of Wescoe Hall.
The rally began at 1 p.m. and included speakers from several campus organizations, a march down Jayhawk Boulevard and a teach- on in the fourth floor of the Kansas Union. A question-and-answer session with four University of Kansas professors followed the teach-in. KU public safety officers monitored the rally.
Floyd Cline, St. Charles, Mo., junior, said he was impressed with the turnout and the support.
"I think it's really good," Cline said. "It's great that lots of people showed support of something very important."
The rally was organized in reaction to anti-affirmative action legislation recently proposed in the Kansas Legislature by Tony Powell, R-Wichita. Powell could not be reached for comment.
"It's not a color issue; it's a human issue," he said. "Let this day, April 1, not be seen as an end but as a beginning for all."
Representatives of various campus organizations spoke against the legislation and the effects it would have on students.
"I know what happened in California," said Elyse Towey, Native American Student Association president and Napa, Calif., senior "I feel fear for each and every person standing here. Seeing how much support we have makes me feel happy because Powell will not win in this state," she said.
Joe Shoffner, Williamsburg, Va., sophomore, walked by the rally and stopped to watch. He said most of the speakers were effective, but he said some were not as heartfelt as others.
Matt Bachand, Action Alliance representative and Yorktown, Va., senior, agreed that affirmative action was important in the University community.
"It is a good turnout and about half of the speakers opened my mind," he said. "The other half were just a lot of go-go rally types that didn't have much depth and were just trying to get the group excited."
During the teach-in, Michael Yellow Bird, assistant professor of social welfare; Maurice Bryan, director of the Equal Opportunity Office; Christine Arguello, associate professor of law; and Maria Orive, assistant professor of biological science, discussed their personal experiences and the history and benefits of affirmative action.
"People need to see that it's not a way to create an inferior workforce or lessen or reduce; it's about justice," Yellow Bird said. "In my classroom, I don't see this much color. I want to see more color on campus; that's what I want."
Groups that participated in the rally included Action Alliance, American Civil Liberties Union, Amnesty International, Black Student Union, Campus Cause, Delta Force, Delta Sigma Theta, Feminist Union, Graduate Teaching Assistants Coalition, Hispanic American Leadership Organization, Industrial Workers of the World, KU Democratrs, KU Environs, Latin American Solidarity, NASA, National Pan-Hellenic, Proponents of Animal Liberation, Queers and Allies, Sigma Lambda Gamma, Students for a Free Tibet and Zeta Phi Beta.

Shotgun, vintage rifle stolen in truck break-in
A vintage rifle and a shotgun were stolen from a KU student's truck Monday morning, Lawrence police said.
Officer Tom Moore said the student left an 8 mm Mauser rifle from the World War II era and a .410-gauge shotgun in the back seat of his extended-cab pickup. He said he parked at 2 a.m. at his residence in the 2100 block of Heatherwood Drive. When the student returned to his truck at noon, the guns were gone. Moore said.
Moore said the guns probably would be sold, traded or pawned for cash.
"It always makes you nervous whenever weapons are stolen from an automobile or residence," he said. "It's not likely that they'll be used to perpetrate other crimes, though."
The student said he went home for spring break and was transporting the weapons to his Lawrence apartment.
"My main concern now is just getting them back," the student said.
Moore said the victim had locked the guns in the truck but found the passenger door unlocked that morning. A CD player also was taken from the front passenger seat. Moore said.
The Mauser rifle, which Moore said had been rechambered to fit a. 308-caliber bullet, was valued at $1,000. The shotgun brand could not be determined. It was valued at $300.
The student was trying to find the rifle's serial number but did not have it yet. The student said it would not be possible to find the serial number of the shotgun.

Ruling clears Clinton of Jones' accusations
WASHINGTON — A federal judge has thrown out Paula Jones's sexual harassment civil lawsuit, delivering a legal victory to President Clinton.
U. S. District Judge Susan Webber Wright in Little Rock, Ark., informed lawyers in the case about the decision yesterday.
President Clinton was "pleased that he has received the vindication he has long awaited," White House press secretary Mike McCurry, traveling with Clinton in Africa, told reporters.
The judge said that although Jones' claim described offensive conduct, it did not meet the standard for sexual harassment.
"The allegations fall far short of the rigorous standards for establishing a claim of outrage under Arkansas law," she said in a 39-page opinion.
A representative for Jones confirmed the ruling.
"It's true, but I'm not going to comment on it until I talk more to the lawyers. I'm on my way to Paula's house," said Susan Carpenter McMillan.
Wright's ruling comes more than three years after Jones first went to court alleging Clinton, as Arkansas governor, made an unwanted sexual advance.

John Whitehead of the Rutherford Institute, which has financed Jones' suit, said her lawyers would look at the case and said "if there are suitable grounds for
The president learned of the decision as he was winding up a 12-day trip to Africa. He got a message to call his lawyer, Robert Bennett, and contacted him. After hearing the news, "He asked, in fact, if it was an April Fools' joke," McCurry said.
Clinton's attorneys had argued Jones had failed to prove she was harmed in her Arkansas state job and was motivated by politics in making her accusations.
The judge's decision culminates a dramatic month in which the lawsuit erupted into a battle of contentious and sensational legal maneuvers.
Gap in cancer death rate not care based, study says
ATLANTA — A study of why the breast-cancer death rate is higher among African-American women than among Caucasians suggests that unequal access to health care is only part of the explanation.
The study was conducted at military hospitals, where everybody should have the same treatment access. Such hospitals treat members of the military and their families.
It found that among the military women, the African-American and Caucasian gap in the breast-cancer death rate was much smaller than it is among women in the general population. But the gap still existed — African-American women with breast cancer were still more likely to die than Caucasian women with the disease.
The study was published in yesterday's issue of the journal Cancer.
"It tells us that even access to healthcare systems doesn't diminish the gap between breast cancer in African-American women and white women," said Barbara Wojcik, the lead researcher on the study. She is a civilian physician with the Army at Fort Sam Houston, Texas.
Researchers have long recognized African American women's higher death rate from breast cancer and have speculated the factors could include not only inadequate healthcare access but also genetics, diet, culture and lifestyle differences, such as use of alcohol and tobacco.
Senate committee resists tobacco-bill amendments
WASHINGTON — The push to complete a tobacco bill turned into a battle yesterday debating how much the industry should pay for the health costs of generations of smokers and how to discourage young people from starting the habit.
Most Democrats maintained the bill was not tough enough on the tobacco industry, while companies repeated the threat to walk away from the deal and challenge the measure in court.
With his majority holding firm, Senate Commerce Committee Chairman John McCain resisted many amendments to the bipartisan bill his staff and dozens of negotiators settled on during the weekend in a bid for votes from most members of both parties. He and other Senate Republican leaders predict the committee will approve the bill this week.
The committee added spending guidelines for the money collected from tobacco companies.
The 392 page bill will significantly toughen the $368 billion settlement reached last June between tobacco companies and the 40 states suing the companies.
Instead, McCain would force the industry to pay $506 billion during a 25-year period, plus billions of dollars in fines if teen-age smoking rates do not decrease by 60 percent in 10 years. It also would raise the price of a pack of cigarettes by $1.10 by 2003.

PC hinders discussion, speaker says

Kansas staff writer
Forget political correctness.
Tusmith, professor of English at Northeastern University, led a discussion called "Multiculturalism on Campus: Whose Agenda is it?" among about 15 students and staff members. Her visit was sponsored by the English department and the Multicultural Resource Center.
At a panel discussion yesterday afternoon in the Multicultural Resource Center, visiting professor Bonnie Tusmith said the only way to achieve honest communication was to escape the confines of politically correct speech.
"I think one of the reasons people don't like to say what they think is because they're afraid to sound or appear racist." Tusmith said.
The four panel members were Emily Ronning, Star Prairie, Wis., graduate student; Rochelle Votaw, Lawrence senior; Anna Neill, assistant professor of English; and Andy Obermuel, Liberal senior.

The discussion also
addressed whether U.S. schools should have a diversity requirement.
Votaw is the co-chairwoman of a committee working to pass a requirement at the University. She said the Committee on Undergraduate Studies and Advising was looking at the proposal.
Obermueller said he opposed the diversity requirement because it emphasized ethnic differences, promoting separatism rather than community.
Tusmith said some people were skeptical of the agenda of multiculturalism at universities.
"Forced acceptance of other perspectives will have the opposite effect of the goal of multiculturalists. It will create more racism." Obermueller said
"If we say that this society has always been multicultural, which I do believe, how can you be against something that is, that exists?" Tusmith asked.
She said there was suspicion that promotion of multiculturalism was a political agenda of University administrations. Tusmith said.
"There's a question of whether it's just for the university to look good, and if that's the only reason, then that would just be a PC reason," she said.

KU secretary retires after 27 years

During 27 years as a Strong Hall secretary, Jane Johnson has seen plenty of action. She has thrown herself in front of protesters marching in to occupy the chancellor's office, and she has stepped over students holding sit-ins on Strong's steps.

Johnson, who served three chancellors during her time at the University of Kansas, retires after work on Friday. She said the action had kept the job interesting.
"Most of all, I'll miss the people I work with," she said. "But I'll miss the campus atmosphere, too. It's so interesting because every day is different."
Band. The band played in honor of Johnson's devotion to the Kansas basketball program.
Yesterday, Chancellor Robert Henemeny and his wife, Leah, held a reception for Johnson at the chancellor's residence. The guest list included staff, friends, Baby Jay and the KU Basketball
Johnson's career at the University began in 1971 with a part-time job in the office of academic affairs. In 1975, she became secretary to the chancellor.
She does the chancellor's scheduling, makes his travel plans and fields his phone calls.
Archie Dykes was Johnson's first chancellor. He held the post from 1973 to 1980 and produced so much paperwork that student volunteers were brought in to work nights and weekends.
Gene Budig was Johnson's boss from 1891 to 1994. Budig was in Kansas City one day when Johnson received a call from the KU police that a group of students were planning to occupy Strong to protest racial inequality at the University.
Although police said the protesters knew they were
not allowed in the chancellor's office, Johnson saw a group of students marching through the door to 230 Strong and heading for the chancellor's office.
"I jumped up and said 'You can't go in there,' she said. "They just looked at me for a second, and then they went
ahead."
Johnson's retirement plans might not promise that kind of excitement. She plans a little travel and a lot of golf, among other things.
"At first, I'm just going to sit and do nothing," she said. "It's fun just thinking about all the things I can do."
University squad places fifth at National Debate Tournament
By Emily C. Forsyth
eforsyth@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The KU debate squad ended its season earlier this week after two of its teams competed at the season's final tournament.
Hajir Ardebili, Overland Park senior, and Grant McKeehan, Overland Park sophomore, finished No. 5 of 76 teams Monday at the American Forensic Association's National Debate Tournament, which was held Friday through Monday at the University of Utah in Salt Lake City.
Ardebilli and McKeehan defeated a team from the University of Iowa but lost to a Northwestern University team. Northwestern took first place overall.
The second KU team, which included Amy Miller, Topeka junior, and Michael Eber, Miami sophomore, reached the top 16 teams after defeating the University of Texas-Austin. Miller and Eber then were defeated by a team from Emory University in Atlanta.
Kevin Minch, assistant debate coach, said the team had mixed feelings about the end of the season.
"I think both the students and the coaches would agree that they had high hopes for doing even better than they did." Minch
said.
The squad took five teams to the Cross-Examination Debate Association national championship March 20-23 at the University of Rochester in Rochester, N.Y. The squad was named fifth in the nation, and Ardebili received the ton speaker award.
Minch lauded the squad's efforts individually and as a whole.
"The team's combined record from the CEDA Championships and the National Debate Tournament is the best overall record this program has seen in over a decade," Minch said. "While KU has consistently been one of the top debate programs in the nation, we are very gratified that these students have accumulated so much success in a single season."
Ardebili is one of two seniors who will not return to the souq next year.
"When I look back upon my last debates, I will always remember the tireless effort of each and every member of our family that has been instrumental to my success." Ardebelli said.
"When it was announced that I was the top speaker at the CEDA National Championship, my teammates and coaches surrounded me in a mass of hugs and handshakes," he said.

History books often ignore the real stories of women's struggles
The struggle for American women remains an untold tale, one that history textbooks fail to acknowledge all too often. Women's history continues to be sorely underplayed or altogether ignored even today.
History textbooks don't reflect the brutal truth buried deep beneath our altruistic notions about events in U.S. history.
For example, Kenneth C. Davis, in his best-seller Don't Know Much About History, revealed that some politicians viewed the women's fight for equality as nothing more than a joke 34 years ago.
Virginia congressman Howard W. Smith, an 81-year-old vestige of the Old South, looked for ways to shoot down the 1964 Civil Rights Act. One method was to introduce "killer amendments" that no one would dare ratify.
To the laughter of his colleagues, Smith added the word "sex" to the list of "race, color, religion or national origin." He
assumed no one would vote to protect equality of the sexes in addition to the other groups, killing the bill and halting further civil rights legislation.
Smith's plan proved to be a doublewhammy. When the bill passed in June 1964, women who would not have obtained any more freedom from the original draft now benefited just the same as African-Americans and other minority groups that Smith had fought so hard to oppress.
Women swamped the Equal Employment Opportunities Commission with appeals, even though the organization's director said the bill was not meant to protect them against sex discrimination. But that lame plea came far too late.
To date, women have filed more discrimination complaints with the EEOC than any other group. And because women had one foot in the door, the women's civil rights movement spurred
even more progress in the years to come.
even more progress in the years to come.
Many more stories remain untold in women's history. Textbooks touch on women's suffrage, but rarely do they tell of the struggle to make such progress.
Textbooks explain how women had enjoyed more employment opportunities after the industrial revolution and during wartime, but they often fail to mention that those women were paid about one-fourth of what men earned for the same tasks.
Examine your U.S. history books. Look for women's studies. If you discover inadequate coverage of women, write the publisher and demand an improvement in the textbook's quality.
The fight for equality never appeared to be a fair one in American history, and textbooks are a reflection of that equality. We would be better off knowing the harsh truth rather than possessing a slanted perception of U.S. history.

Back off smokers: It's our air too
A walk to class should not have to include a trip through a cloud of chemical-laden, cancer-causing secondhand smoke.
But for many KU students, especially those with classes in Wescoe Hall, it's unavoidable, thanks to inconsiderate smokers who are too lazy to walk 20 feet away from the door.
A state law prohibits smoking in public buildings. The University upholds this law, so all smoking on campus must be done outside.
Unfortunately, some smokers' idea of outside is inches from the doorway. They should walk farther. Their reasons for being inconsiderate stem either from laziness or unwillingness to stand in the sun, snow or rain. Believe it or not.
Smokers should smoke away from campus building entrances for the benefit of others
not, most nonsmokers and considerate smokers don't want to stand in a cloud of smoke any more than smokers want to stand in the elements.
Secondhand smoke is smoke that is exhaled and smoke that streams from the burning cigarette — with no filter cutting down on the concentration of 4,000 chemicals, of which 200 are poisonous and 43 cause cancer. The Environmental Protection Agency estimates that 3,000 lung cancer deaths and 37,000 heart disease deaths occur each year in
the nonsmoking population.
Pregnant women and asthma sufferers are affected by secondhand smoke in doorways. Everyone who walks through smoke-filled doorways is marked with a strong odor that lingers in clothing and hair.
If you're a nonsmoker or a considerate smoker who no longer wants to be forced to breathe contaminated doorway air, you should feel free to request that smokers grant you the common courtesy of not smoking where you must walk.
And if you are a smoker, please be more considerate of those who must walk by you on their way to class. If you must smoke, do so farther from the door. Let's take it outside. Weyoutside.

Witness to student's death describes tragedy
Perspective
This morning I learned another one of those important lessons that I will carry for the rest of my life. As I sit here typing this in my apartment near the intersection of 14th and Ten
nessee Streets, the police, who have been in front of my house for the last five and a half hours, are trying to recreate the accident that happened here this morning. It was the most terrible thing I ever have been witness to in my entire life, and I hope I never have to experience something like it again.
John Colbert
opinion@kansan.com
It was almost midnight and I was watching the end of Jerry Springer when I heard a few drunken people leaving
Bullwinkle's. As I usually do, I went to the window to see what was going on. They looked like any other group of drunken bar patrons walking down the street after a night of merriment. I remember seeing them walk toward the street, and I thought that it wasn't a cool idea to play in the street — especially when one is intoxicated. I also remember thinking that I hoped that there weren't any cars coming because one of the bar-goers might get hit.
What happened next I still can't believe.
I felt horrible as I watched this spectacle unfold. I remember standing on my front porch trying to avoid looking at the car. Instead I watched the paramedics urgently unloading equipment from the ambulance. It was hard to imagine that 10 minutes ago the same girl who now was dying under this car was drinking, having a fun night out without a hint in the world about what fate had in store for her.
As I turned away from the window to go watch the end of Springer, I heard tires squeal. I turned and looked out the window just in time to see a girl either fall or dive from one lane to the other in what looked like an attempt to avoid getting hit. Instead she wound up directly in the path of the oncoming vehicle that was going at least 30 miles per hour. The girl basically just disappeared under the front of the vehicle.
After awhile the police gathered what few witnesses to the actual incident they could find, and took us all down to the police station. Although the police station is only a few blocks away, it seemed like the longest and quietest car ride of my life. It was obvious that the officer was pretty shaken up by the evening's events as well. I hate to think what it must have been like in the other police car that carried the girl's friends.
I immediately called 911 and then went outside. People were running around, screaming and crying, and the driver of the car was running around in hysteresis screaming "Don't die" again and again. I just remember seeing about a hundred people lining the street looking on at the girl's lifeless body wedged under the vehicle. It seemed to take forever for the paramedics to arrive, but in reality it couldn't have been more than two or three minutes.
When we got to the police station, I was taken into an office and told to write out exactly what I saw. The girl's friends were taken into another room. I remember that when I was signing my statements the officer informed me that the girl was currently in critical condition, and it didn't look good. The ride home was even worse than the ride there.
When the officer dropped me off it was about 1 a.m. — just about an hour after the accident happened. Other officers now were measuring the street, drawing diagrams and filling out the endless amount of reports that are required after such a tragedy. The crowd was gone now. A few of the officers stayed, examining the scene most of the night. About 20 minutes ago — 5:30 a.m. — they informed me that the girl had in fact succumbed to her injuries. It was what I had expected, but I still can't believe that all this happened around me.
The sun is starting to come up. I can see the skid marks from the accident and from where the police have tried to reenact it several times. This morning I learned that you can go from having the time of your life to having one very bad day in less than a second. Furthermore, I have learned that you truly don't know when fate might strike you down. God be with you, Lisa Rosel.

Kansas should not amend affirmative action programs
affirmative action, or the extension of preferences to correct for an uncontrollable variable, is the basis for many of America's social programs. Race just happens to be one variable. When one considers whole program affirmative action — Medicare and tax breaks, for instance — there's no disputing we like it. But we fail to provide fully similar insulating programs for people of color.
A bill in the Kansas Legislature would end race-based affirmative action in Kansas, and it must be stopped. Affirmative action is too important to Kansans and all other Americans.

PETER TURNER
Affirmative action is practiced in many areas of our society — not just for leveling
Discrimination denies minorities access to certain in-groups while race-based affirmative action allows equally qualified minorities access to these in-groups. Look at society and you will see that the whiteness of the corporate world is what is unnatural. Before the Civil Rights Act, purely racist quotas achieved many of these unnatural, white-preferential advantages: "We hire 0 percent African-Americans, Asians, [you fill in the blank], and 100 percent white people." Quotas are prohibited by the 1964 Civil Rights act and are always the last resort in race-based affirmative action. The courts only institute quotas when litigation
Historically, hiring is done through in-groups, such as the same companies and schools. White men outnumber everyone else in many high-power jobs, but women and people of color outnumber white men in society. This is the result of white male in-group hiring. The people who comprise these in-groups may or may not be conscious participants in these discriminatory hiring practices, but the end result is the same — white men maintain a disproportionate advantage in employment.
the playing field for people of color. There are hiring and recruiting preferences for veterans, women and the children of alumni of many universities. Many of these discriminatory practices have resulted in the over-representation of white people of certain class backgrounds in universities and well-paid jobs. Why don't we question these preferences, which favor white people?
against a discriminating employer is successful: You have to be too racist to institute your own diversity standards to have quotas imposed on you. Quota-free affirmative action aids natural diversification by expanding the group you have hired to reflect the natural diversity of society.
Call your state representatives or get their email addresses from www.ink.org. Sign up in the Office of Minority Affairs in 145 Strong Hall to act against discrimination. Defend affirmative action
Bachand is a Yorktown, Va., senior in English and East Asian studies.
No one can pick their parents, control the weather, or control market forces, but we insulate society from these variables with social programs. If we repeal all affirmative action, then housing subsidies, tax breaks for small business owners, and the G.I. bill will all end. Tax deductions for dependent children and veteran's administration hospitals will all disappear. But the current legislation only will prohibit the extension of affirmative action to hiring minorities, which is racist. One generation of race-based affirmative action will help do for minorities what the New Deal did for our white parents and grandparents, what the G.I. bill does for veterans, and what the Farm Bureau does for farmers. Affirmative action is a reality and we all benefit from social programs that protect us from things beyond our control.
This goes for all people, but crime among people not receiving affirmative action — in the form of any social programs — is higher. If we cannot stand up for the least of us, we will be powerless when someone comes for the best of us. Ask yourself what benefits the best of us received that helped us rise up, and which of those same benefits are denied to the least of us, keeping us down. Think about the social forces that deny the logical extension of these benefits to minorities and you will see racism.
By extending affirmative action to minorities and women we can empower those who have been left out of the social safety net to do what all people want to do; pull themselves up by their own bootstraps and better their lives and their communities. We either can help in a positive way with race-based affirmative action, or we can pay more in welfare and suffer more crime at the hands of those we neglect. Then we can pay much more to prosecute and imprison the neglected, all because we fail to provide.

United Way thanks Revue participants
Two weeks ago students at the University of Kansas participated in the 1998 Rock Chalk Revue. The United Way of Douglas County, Inc., was again selected to be the recipient of the Revue's proceeds and received a $43,000 contribution to the 1998
99 campaign.
On behalf of the Board of Directors of the United Way of Douglas County, Inc., we want to express our appreciation for the contribution and the committed involvement in our community.
Financial support is only a single example of the generosity of the KU students. This past year students contributed more than 34,000 volunteer community service hours in Douglas County. Each year this commitment increases and reflects a focused and unique perspective to education at the University.

Coke gets free tickets from deal
By Gerry Doyle and Brandon Copple gdoyle@kansan.com bcoppler@kansan.com
Konesh thefurious
Kansan staff writers
The University's Coca-Cola contract ensures that Coca-Cola employees can have both a Coke and a smile as they watch KU athletic events for free.
"It's something that brings value to the deal for Coke," said Theresa Klinkenberg, director of administration. "It's something they would normally get. Compared to what Coke brings to us, it's a minor thing."
In exchange for selling only Coke products at all campus events, concessions and from vending machines, the University has received $7 million up front.
The University will receive about $1.2 million annually from soft drink sales commissions and interest earned on the $7 million payment. University officials estimate the 10-year contract will be
worth $21 million to the University.
Among the complimentary tickets provided to Coca-Cola by the University are 20 basketball season tickets. Eight of those, according to the contract, are prime-location tickets. Twelve are upper-level tickets. In addition, Coke receives 50 general admission tickets, worth about $25 each, for one home basketball game. The University will provide a catered pregame event for that game.
On two occasions, about 50 Coca-Cola employees will attend a men's basketball practice with a catered post-practice event.
The contract also includes 12 season football tickets, worth $157 each; 10 season tickets for women's basketball, worth about $60 each; and 10 season tickets for all home baseball games, worth about $40 each.
Bob Fredick, athletic director,
said many vendors had deals similar to Coca-Cola's. The tickets were arranged by athletic departments as part of the negotiating process, he said.
"That's pretty standard in all of these arrangements," Frederick said. "It's a standard part of all beverage contracts that I'm aware of."
Kevin Morris, Coca-Cola representative for its dealings with the University, said Coca-Cola typically received tickets to sporting events as part of its sponsorships at universities.
Morris said the tickets probably would go to Coca-Cola's Lenexa office.
"It will probably be decided on a game-by-game basis," Morris said. "I don't think the arrangement was unusual at all."
"It seems like there's probably somebody who deserves to go

Committee enriches campus groups
By Melissa Ngo
Kansan staff writer enhance
Student Senate Finance Committee allocated more than $6,550 to student organizations last night.
Two groups, the KU Veterans Association and KU Choirs, were financed after convincing committee members that funds would not go toward academic departments or University recruitment.
The University of Kansas' Veterans Association requested $1,478 to pay for a computer and $378 of general funding.
answers, and this group could answer them easily."
David Perico, KU Veterans Association president and Lawrence sophomore, said the group would use the computer to build a support system for the veterans at the University and elsewhere.
"I could have used the support system when I first came here," said Greg Woolen, nontraditional senator and Army veteran who sponsored the bill. "My wife and I had a lot of questions. We had to go searching for
Committee members questioned whether the computer would be used to attract veterans to the University. Jordan Edwards, Finance Committee chairman, ruled that this was not the case.
Sergean Fred Keeney, La Cygne senior, said the group would not ask Senate for money after this initial request.
"Once we get on our feet, our goal is to be completely self-sufficient," Keenev said.
At the last meeting, Senate sent the 1999 line-item allocation budget bill back to the Finance Committee after KU Chairs appealed the committee's original decision not to finance the group.
Last night, the Finance Committee voted to allocate $4,700 of the $8,983 requested by KU Choirs. The money will pay for choir folders and sheet music.
Dion Jones, holdover senator, said he opposed the bill because the University should finance KU Choirs because it was a part of the music department.
"If they can't afford it, they should not offer it," Jones said. "We just cannot continue to fund departmental organizations if we want to be financially responsible."
Joe Walberg, Finance Committee member, voted to finance part of KU Choirs' request.
"When legitimate student organizations, like KU Choirs, which has 255 members, comes to us, we should help fund them because it's the students' money," Walberg said.
The Finance Committee also passed bills to finance the KU Book Exchange, Queers and Allies' Pride Week, the Environmental Studies Student Organizations' 'Beneft Bicycle Ride and the KU Korean Student Association's Culture Night.
In other business, the Student Rights Committee passed a bill to require Student Senate committees to have attendance policies, a bill to change the KU Student Lecture Series board and a resolution concerning student absences during inclement weather.

The University Daily Kansan and the School of Journalism have established a memorial scholarship for a minority journalism student in honor of LaTina Sullivan. Sullivan, a
Tenn., was a news editorial major in journalism. She worked as a copy editor, an associate editorial page editor and as editor of the Kansan. She was an active member of her sorority, Delta Sigma Theta, and was a member of the McNair Scholars Program.
Income from the LaTina Sullivan Scholarship Fund will provide an annual scholarship for a minority student in the School of Journalism. The first recipient will be announced at the School's
annual scholarship awards ceremony, to be held in April 24.

"LaTina represented all that was good about our program and our student newspaper. This would be an ideal way to honor her." JAMES K. GENTRY, dean of journalism.
"LaTina reminded us in print and by her presence that we are and should be a multicultural voice in our newspaper's community. She made the Kansan better in that way and many others... Her loss, sadly, makes us less than what we were. Yet it challenges us to remember what was important to her as an African-American journalist. Tell the truth without fear or favor. Be fair. Reflect the American experience." TOM EBLEN, Kansan general manager and news adviser.

Sorority steers test of electric bicycle
Delta Delta Delta sorority members are cruising to campus on a new electric mountain bike.
The bike, which looks like a mountain bike, has a battery mounted under the seat and a one horsepower motor near the crank.
Kansas Electric Utilities Research Program, an organization financed by utility companies in Kansas, asked the sorority to help test the bike.
"This is something totally unique," said Stacey Elder, Topeka junior and Delta Delta Delta member.
Elder said this was the first she had heard of a local greek organization testing a new product for free.
Jerry Lonergan, executive director of the program, said two police officers who rode the bikes told him they felt safer because they were not tired when they arrived at a crime scene.
In addition to the sorority, the research program has given bikes to police departments in Western Kansas and in Kansas City.
The bike was designed by Zero Air Pollution Power Systems, a company based in Sebastopol, Calif., that designs electric vehicles for everyday use. The bike is designed to give riders a boost on hills and against stiff winds.

Lonergan said ZAP Power Systems contacted his organization through the National Off-Road Electric Vehicle Consortium.
"They hoped they could promote their product." Lonergan said.
"What we want to try and do is give the manufacturer a sense of how the bike performs in a fairly intensive use," Lonergan said.
At the end of the semester, sorority members who rode the bike the most will participate in a conference call with ZAP Power Systems.
Elder, who has tested it, said response to the bike had been positive.
Elder said a college town like Lawrence, especially with its hills, was the perfect place to test the bike.
She said the sorority had the bike for the rest of the school year, and if it still was interested, it could use it next fall.
"I wasn't sure how it would go
over, but everyone who has ridden it thought it was so fun." Elder said.
She said the bike was perfect for getting to class without getting hot and sweaty riding up the hills.
"You get a lot of attention if you go up a hill, and you're not pedaling," Elder said.
"It looks like a normal bike," she said.
She said the bike was not what she had expected.
Elder said the sorority was testing the bike for enjoyment, not for profit.
"We're just mainly doing this for fun," Elder said.
Faculty, staff, and students: Get your free, new KU Card April 6-21 in the Kansas Room at the Kansas Union.
Lonergan said the bike was for sale now and cost between $1,500 and $1,600. A kit with just the motor costs about $600, he said.

Football team seeks improvement

Allen settles in prepares players
By Kevin C. Wilson Kansan sportswriter
Last year's spring practice period was an opportunity for Kansas football coach Terry Allen to become acquainted with his players and assistant coaches.
This year's practices, which began yesterday afternoon, will be more about football and less about making introductions, Allen said.
"Last spring, there were quite a few
know," Allen said.
"The playbook was like Greek to most of the guys. We didn't get a lot accomplished."
C. J. MASON
This year, Allen is ready to start improving the football team, he said.
"Our primary goal is to come out with our two deep positions set and see where our personnel is at." Allen said. "This is also a chance for us to make positive adjustments to our offense and defense."
Allen: Focusing on the game in second spring of practice
Allen said that last year he and his staff had learned some of the intricacies of the Big 12 Conference. This year, they will attempt to adapt the offense and defense accordingly, he said.
"We want to pick up from where we left off on offense last year," Allen said. "We made great strides and hope they continue to multiply."
Kansas returns 10 starters on an offensive unit that, despite ranking last in the country in total offense, showed improvement late in the season. The Jayhawks averaged 27 points and 353 yards in total offense during their final three games after putting up an average of 12 points and 199.6 yards during the first eight games of the season.
Sophomore running back David Winbush said that last year he tired of hearing about how bad the offense was and that he was looking forward to improving.
"We are out to prove to ourselves that we can be a top-10 offensive team," Winbush said.
Winbush said he had extreme confidence in his own abilities, his coach, the offensive line and the advantage of having 10 returning starters.
The Jayhawks' defense will not have that kind of experience. The defense will go into spring practice looking to solidify a unit that lost seven starters, including three from the secondary.
Senior cornerback Jamie Harris is the only returning regular in the defensive backfield, and Allen said the most interesting competition would come from this area.
"I think that when we travel, the defensive secondary will need their own bus," Allen said. "We have 25 guys competing in the secondary, including walk-ons who see that there's an opportunity."
Allen said opportunities on the field were ample and everything was wideopen heading into spring practice.
"You can just throw out those two deeps that we have now because they are going to change."

Football team recuperating seeks starters
By Kevin C. Wilson
Kansan sportswriter
Notes from the press conference before the beginning of spring practice.
Coach Allen said several Jayhawk players would be held out of spring practice to recover from injuries. Last year's starting fullback Greg Davis will miss the duration of spring drills in an attempt to alleviate the migraine headaches that he has had since the conclusion of last year.
"It is a neuromuscular thing." Allen said. "It's kind of scary, but they are doing the research to find out what it is. He's also about 25 pounds overweight because he hasn't been able do anything this offseason except sit at the table."
Allen said the running back position was wide-open, with sophomore David Winbush, junior Mitch Bowles and senior Julius Bruce all competing for the starting spot.
"We will take a good strong look at Winchub," Allen said. "We also got Mitch Bowles who can be a guy who can help us a lot. He is a dual purpose back who can run and catch the ball out of the backfield. Then we have an enigma in Julius Bruce who has shown signs of being great."
Also expected to miss the spring drills are running back Mike Lewis (knee), tight end Jason Gulley (stress fracture of left foot), linebacker Steve Bratten (knees), defensive end Jeremy Hanak (left knee) and linebacker J.J. Johnson (right knee). Allen said wide receiver John Gordon had his sleep apnea problem taken care of but Gordon would be held from spring practice anyway. Allen is optimistic about Gordon playing in the fall.
Kansas starting quarterback Zac Wegner said he was excited about the upcoming season, especially with the improvement of his offensive line.
"We had a great winter conditioning program," Wegner said. "The offensive line got bigger, stronger and faster."
Allen said his Jayhawks had benefited from the addition of a football specialist strength coach. He said that 57 players had achieved their personal records in lifting this winter.
■ Receiving is an important area of focus this spring if the Jayhawks will be more effective at moving the ball through the air next season. The Jayhawks have six players returning with starting experience including sophomore Termaine Fulton, who had 10 receptions for 302 yards and four touchdowns.
"We need to better exploit the opponent with Termine by not just throwing the long ball," Allen said. "We need to get him the ball in better places."
Men's tennis blown away by weather, Tulsa
By Erin Thompson
Kansas sportswriter
Women's team travels to Manhattan, win 8-1
A chance for the men's tennis team to prove it was still the best team in the region was blown away in the Kansas wind yesterday.
After dropping two of the three doubles matches, the Jayhawks could not overcome the Golden Hurricanes. The strong wind coming out of the west was an additional obstacle.
The Jayhawks fell 7-0 to Tulsa at the Robinson Center tennis courts. Kansas is ranked first in Region V of the Collegiate Tennis Rankings and Tulsa is second.
"Today, there was a little wind condition," junior Kenny Powell said. "Tulsa played really well. We could have competed harder. But Tulsa came out ready to play."
The Jayhawks have struggled this season with inconsistency and injuries. This continued yesterday.
KANSAS TENNIS
Enrique Abaroa, the team's No.1 singles
player, is recovering from a sprained back he suffered in February. Without Abaroa the Jayhawks must change their line up, which leaves everyone playing a spot
higher than usual, said Mark Riley, Kansas coach.
Abaroa played doubles at the top spot with Luis Uribe but did not compete in singles play. He and Uribe had the Jayhawk's only win.
The team continues to search for consistency from all its players.
"It's like we have two teams." Riley said. "We need to be more consistent. We were bad against Berkeley, good against UNLV, and bad today. Hopefully, the good team will show up Saturday against Colorado."
Putting everything together at the end for the national tournament is the goal for the remainder of the season. Riley said.
"I hope we can pull this together," he said.
"We are no longer looking to get healthy; we just need to play consistently with the players we have. If we're going to go to the Big Dance, we need to do it with the group that's healthy now."
To advance to the national tournament the Jayhawks probably would have to play Tulsa again and win. Powell said.
The Jayhawks face Missouri at 3:00 today at the Robinson courts and Saturday travel to Colorado.
The women's tennis team had better luck than the men yesterday when it played at Kansas State. The Jayhawks defeated the Wildcats 8-1.
Earlier in the season, doubles play had been a problem for the women, but they swept the doubles against the Wildcats.
The Jayhawks top-four singles players, who all are ranked, continued their impressive play and won all their matches. The biggest challenge came at the No. 2 singles, where Christie Sim had a three set battle with K-State's Anna Pampoulova before winning in a tie breaker 6-2, 0-6, 7-6 (7-5).

Say what you mean and show how you feel. This is an ideal moment to spend time with someone important in your life. Dine out in as much style as your bud get allows.
Gemini: Today is a 4.

The only way to change the past is to rewrite your memories of it. There is a lot more you can do about the future, beginning right now.

One such athlete is Lester Smith, a triple-jumper from St. Louis. The junior college transfer had a spectacular indoor season but failed to reach nation als.

Yankees as the highest-paid team at $69 million, more than 7 1/2 times the Montreal Expos' payroll of $9.1 million, according to a study by The Associated Press.
Teams on uneven field with players' salaries
NEW YORK — The difference between baseball's haves and have-nots was greater than ever on opening day.
Montreal discarded nearly all its veterans, including Pedro Martinez, Mike Lansing, Henry Rodriguez and Darrin Fletcher, cutting last year's $18 million payroll in half. The Expos hope to gain approval this year for a downtown stadium and plan to rebuild the roster if ballpark funding is approved.
Baltimore's payroll, a record for an opening day roster, was followed by the Yankees ($63.5 million), who had been first from 1995 to 1997. Cleveland was third at $59.6 million, followed by Atlanta at $59.5 million and Texas at $55.3 million.
Three players — Albert Belle, Gary Sheffield and Greg Maddux — make more individually than Montreal's entire team.
"There are a few clubs that can be at $70 million every year," Expos general manager Jim Beattie said yesterday. "To have your payroll in the 30s, I just don't think you can compete. To have your payroll in the 40s is kind of in-between land."
The Florida Martins, fifth in payout at the end of last season at $53.5 million, dropped to 20th at $33.4 million after shedding 12 players from the roster that led the team to a World Series title
Other than Montreal, the only teams below $20 million were Oakland ($19.5 million) and Pittsburgh ($13.4 million).
Baltimore displaced the New York
Arizona is No. 23 at $30.6 million, and Tampa Bay is 25th at $25.3 million.
Belle and Sheffield were tied for the top spot on the salary list at $10 million apiece, followed by Maddux ($9.6 million), Barry Bonds ($8,916,667), Mark McGwire ($8,333,333) and Roger Clemens and Bernie Williams ($8.25 million each).

Jordan blocks questions about future
Phil Jackson's exit could leave Bulls with fewer stars
The Associated Press
CHICAGO - Michael Jordan has been advised to stop discussing his uncertain future.
He spoke for 20 minutes yesterday night and said not a word about his plans. That allowed someone else to offer an explanation about the biggest unanswered question in the NBA.
"He's not sure what he's going to do," teammate Steve Kerr said. "There you have it. After months of debate and posturing, Jordan's future remains up in the Air. 'I'm sure that there was an
agenda for Michael
trying to keep Phil (Jackson,
the coach)
around," Kerr said.
"And, obviously,
that doesn't look like it's
going to work.
He's frustrated.
He probably has mixed emotions. He still
A
Jordan: No longer making comments about next season
might want to play without Phil,
but he might not want to say that
right now."
Jordan has pledged to retire after this season if management sticks to its plan to replace Jackson.
Nevertheless, Jordan has been bombarded with questions about
his future every time the Bulls go on the road, when he is at home, after practices, after games, when he walks into the arena.
The siege prompted Jackson to suggest that Jordan stop talking to the media on off days. If the questions could be halted, Jackson reasons, maybe the issue would be less prominent.
"It doesn't make any sense any way you look at it," he said. "There's so many dynamics involved, relationships, politics. It's just a big mess."
But that did not stop Kerr from taking a shot at an explanation.
"But look at it. The problem is that everybody is coming into free agency at the same time. So (management) is backed into a corner as well. A lot of people are backed into a corner on this, and that's unfortunate."
Jordan, Scottie Pippen, Kerr
and Luc Longley are among 11 members of the Bulls who will be free agents after this season. The only players under contract are Toni Kukoc, Ron Harper, Randy Brown and rookie Keith Booth.
CHICAGO
BULLS
"If you want to bring everybody back, how much is it going to cost?" Kerr asked. "You could be looking at an $80 million payroll. And why would an owner want to pay those kind of salaries. I don't think Jerry Reindorf should feel obligated to spend $80 or $90 million to keep a team together."
General manager Jerry Krause planned the simultaneous contract expirations, thinking the Bulls would be some $19 million under the salary cap this summer so they could rebuild quickly and avoid the inevitable downturn that afflicts championship teams after their run has ended.
It happened to the Celtics, the Lakers and the Pistons. Problem is, the Bulls show no signs they are through.
With a 56-17 record and a 10-game winning streak after yesterday night's 106-101 overtime victory against Detroit, the Bulls have a one-game lead against Seattle and Utah for the best record leaguewide.
If the Bulls make it to the finals, Jordan could play not only for a sixth ring but also for a chance at a seventh.
"If we win a championship this year, boy, what a mess that will be this summer trying to figure out what to do," Kerr said.

AUGUSTA, Ga.—If only time had slipped away as easily as the words slipped between Fuzzy Zoeller's lips on that final Sunday at the Masters.
Zoeller's 'collard greens' remark after last Masters not forgotten
By Ron Sirak The Associated Press
If only memory was as short as the time it took Zoeller's sponsors to drop him after he raised the issue of Tiger Woods' race.

"Good things are happening." Zoeller said in February at the Buick Invitational, where he shot a 63 in the first round. "Everything happens for the best. That's all I'm going to say about it."

In February, the comments he made after the Masters concerning what Woods should order for the menu at this year's Champions Dinner were an unspoken backdrop.
"El Niño is the only crab we have out here," Zoeller said. "Other than that, everything is fine."
But as the Masters drew closer and particularly after Woods selected cheeseburgers, grilled chicken-breast sandwiches, french fries and vanilla or strawberry milkshakes as his menu, the issue resurfaced. And so did Zoeller's insistence that he was
burned not by his words but by the media — and by Woods' less-than-enthusiastic acceptance of his apology.
"I didn't write it, boys." Zoeller said in the ones who buried me, and I appreciate it. But it's over with, it's done, water over the dam. For some reason out here, (expletive) sells. I don't understand why that is, but it does."
The closer Zoeller got to the Masters and the closer his appearance at the Champions Dinner drew, the testier he became.
"It will never die," Zoeller said.
"They're beating on me right now for Augusta. They've been beating on me since California. And I won't mention anything. I won't say a word. I just keep telling them who won. Tiger won. Congratulate him. Talk to him."
Woods accepted Zoeller's apology but only after waiting several days and with the clear message that he found Zoeller's line, "or whatever it is they serve," offensive and lacking a ioking tone.
Asked in late March what he would tell someone about a remark like that, Woods said: "I know what I would say, but I'm not going to tell you guys."
Woods, however, did indicate that although he may not forget, he was willing to forgive.
"I think we got some mutual respect for each other," Woods said.
Most players view Zoeller as a jokester who meant no harm but drifted into a subject he should have avoided, especially given the significance of Woods' achievement at Augusta National as its first non-Caucasian champion.
"He's done so much for golf in 25 years, and one little mistake like that just blew him up," said John Daly, a close friend of Zooler's.
Although Woods and Zoeller have spoken privately, Daly thinks they need to show the public that the episode is behind them.
"You just feel like those two need to maybe play some practice rounds or something together, because it's just crazy how this thing has gotten out of hand," Daly said.
Do not count on it taking place at
"We need to lighten up just a little bit. You made the mistake, you pay the price for a year, that's enough punishment. But in our society, forgiving isn't in. it's easier to destroy."

Augusta, where the Masters begins today.
"It will be more of a public relations thing than it would be getting ready for a major, and I am getting ready more for a major." Woods said.
Mark O'Meara is a 20-year tour veteran, a respected member of the PGA Tour policy board and Woods' closest friend on tour.
"He made a mistake," O'Meara said of Zoeller. "He knows that, he apologized. He's done a lot more good for the game than harm. To keep stirring this issue is ridiculous."
But just as Bill Buckner will be remembered for a grounder that went through his legs in the 1986 World Series and not for his 2,715 base hits, Zoeller will be remembered more for his Masters gaffe than for his 1979 Masters victory.
"We need to lighten up just a little bit," O'Meara said. "You made the mistake, you pay the price for a year, that's enough punishment. But in our society, forgiving isn't in. It's easier to destroy."
How Zoeller handles himself at this year's Masters will go a long way toward determining whether the rebuilding or the destruction will continue.
"Not saying a word," Zoeller snapped in March when the issue came up. "No. No. It'll be a cold day in hell before I talk. Not talking."
If only he had felt that way a year ago; if only those were his thoughts that Sunday afternoon at Augusta, then none of this would be an issue.

'Hawks, Baker split games
By John Blakely Wilson
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas baseball team stumbled through a doubleheader against Baker University last night at Hoglund-Maupin Stadium, barely winning the first game 6-5 before dropping the nightcap 9-8.
Center fielder Cliff Bryson stepped to the plate in the final inning of the first game and delivered — with a base on balls.
Baker pitcher Chris Presser loaded the bases on walks with the score tied at five runs for each team. The Wildcats inserted Jay Garvin, but his control was no better than Presser's, and he walked Bryson ending the game, 6-5
in which the Jayhawks committed three errors and gave up five unearned runs.
"To give up five free runs in the first inning really hurt us and made us play on our heels the rest of the game," said coach Bobby Randall. "We were pressing pretty hard to get the game won late, but that's just baseball."
It was a fitting end to an ugly game
Freshman shortstop John Nelson continued to lead the Kansas offense in the first game, hitting a 400-foot home run into the pine trees behind the left-center field fence leading off the first inning. Catcher Josh Dimmick also drove in two runs, and infielder Paul Levins had three hits.
Dan Auckland pitched five and one-third innings without allowing an earned run, and Eric Bettis got his first victory of 1998 in a scoreless
inning of relief.
Left fielder Brett Kappelmann committed two errors in the game, and one contributed to Baker's five-run first inning.
"Our concentration just wasn't there," Randall said. "They probably think they should have won, but we got the breaks in the game, and they didn't."
The Jayhawks rallied from a 9-5 deficit in the bottom of the seventh inning but came up a run short. The effort was hampered by three Wildcat runs in the top of the inning.
Baker earned a split in the doubleheader by winning the second game 9-8.
Center fielder Clint Wyrick tied a school record with two triples in a game.
Softball team wins one, loses one
The Kansas softball team has struggled this season to win close games, losing most of the games in late innings.
In the first game of a doubleheader last night at Wichita State, it happened again.
The loss broke a three-game winning streak this season for the Jayhawks, and a four-game winning streak against the Shockers.
Jessi Kowal gave up only three hits in six innings. But in the bottom of the seventh, the Shockers took advantage of two Kansas errors with an uneared run and won the game 1-0.
During the second game, the Jayhawks relied on strong hitting performances from several players and won 4-1.
Catcher Kristina Johnson hit her second home run of the season, tying the game 1-1 in the fourth inning. Shortstop Michelle Hubler scored on a sacrifice bunt by right
fielder Jennifer Funkhouser, giving the Jayhawks their first lead of the night.
Johnson picked up her second RBI of the game in the fifth inning, flying out to right field and bringing home third baseman Sarah McCann, who went 3-4 in the contest.
The Jayhawks travel to Texas this weekend to face Big 12 rivals Texas and Texas A&M.

ART HOUSES:LIBERTY HALL
Story by Jeremy M. Doberty · Photos by Geoff Krieger
The 125-seat Little Theatre at Liberty Hall can be quite a change for moviegoers spoiled by stadium seating. THX sound and
Rocket-back chassis. There aren't even cupholders.
But the theater's patrons don't miss the conveniences.
At 7 p.m., Scott Bliss, the 25-year-old manager of Liberty Hall Cinema, trudges up the 25 stairs to the projection booth and launches the final Lawrence showing of the Oscar-nominated film. The Sweet Hereafter.
its five-week run is ending to make way for the much-anticipated comedy, The Big Lebowski, a film expected to be one of the top art house draws in 1998.
But times can be lean in the art house business. Case in point — only four patrons showed up to give The Sweet Hereafter a send-off.
Bliss and Liberty Hall, 642 Massachusetts St., barely survived a rough fall and winter. The season's biggest art movies, such as Good Will Hunting and The Full Monkey, bypassed his operation and played at the multiplexes across town.
The loss of such high-profile films is hitting Bliss where it hurts. He has to fight harder to book the biggest independent hits. As super-sized multiplexes continue to spruce, independently owned art houses like Liberty Hall struggle to compete with the larger chains.
"It's definitely happening more with the bigger crossover stuff, which is vital for us," Bliss says, leaning back in an orange swivel chair in his office. On the wall behind him hangs a poster for A Close Shave, the 1995 Oscar-winning animated short movie.
"We need five or six pictures a year to do well. Then, we can break even or even lose a little money on the others. When you don't have those titles, that's when it starts to hurt you."
"We need five or six pictures a year to break even ... When you don't have those titles, that's when it starts to hurt you."
Scott Bliss Liberty Hall Cinema manager
For every week a big independent movie plays at the megaplexes. Bliss estimates that he loses $2,000, especially when a critically-acclaimed drama like *The Sweet Wheater* flops, even by the more lenient terms of independent cinema.
"Business did pick up in the last couple days," Bliss says. "But it still hasn't done very well overall."
Liberty Hall, which does have a 600seat auditorium in addition to the Little Theatre, has shut off its projectors before. Movies were a fixture until the 1950s when the Granada, 1050 Massachusetts St., began to cut into the clientele.
Through the 1960s and 1970s, the hall was a stopover for rock acts like Fleetwood Mac and Devo. Attempts at dinner theatre and less youthful entertainment had no staying power, and the building fell into disrepair. In 1986, the owners renovated it back into a movie house and music venue.
In the lobby, twin crystal chandeliers hang above a 1940s-style tiled floor, dotted in red, green and white patterns. A large popcorn and soft drink costs only $3.75. Boulevard and Free State beer are available. If a movie goes out of focus, the employees readjust it by hand.
Liberty Hall didn't develop its current reputation as a haven for independent and foreign-language movies until the last decade.
In 1989, sex, lies, and videotape, an edgy, voyeuristic hit from the Cannes Film Festival and ushered in the new era of independent films. It opened locally at Liberty Hall and ended up with a national box-office take of $25 million.
Until then, Liberty Hall specialized in film festivals and revivals, showing Woody Allen movies and foreign hits like Akira Kurosawa's *Ran*. Independent movies had yet to catch on.
"I think sex, lies was the first one that was really an independent, but it really produced and did good business." Bliss says.
At that point, distributors and theater owners realized that a market existed for unconventional movies.
"That's how it got started, and it's gotten better and better since," Bliss savs.
John Tibbetts, assistant professor of film, credits the late 1980s movies with jumpstarting the current wave of popularity and Liberty Hall's business.
"Movies like (sex, lies, and videotape) certainly did spell out a new light for alternative movie houses," he says.
It also spelled out new audiences for the growing number of multiplexes.
Later titles such as *The Crying Game* and *Pulp Fiction* broke free of their art house constraints and received wider distribution. In suburban shopping malls, both movies enjoyed box office grosses well into the double digits. *Pulp Fiction* became a phenomenon, eventually raking in $107.9 million nationwide, an impressive hit even by the more rigid standards of mainstream Hollywood.
But they still were art movies, and
in showbiz art movies take months to gross what a Mel Gibson flick can make in one weekend. In the 1990s, outlets like Liberty Hall still had first dabs on the product.
"We showed Pulp Fiction for 26 weeks," Bliss recalls. "If you get a movie like that, you can play them as long as you can. Two or three thousand dollars a week for us is not too bad, but two or three thousand for another movie theater sucks."
Liberty Hall also houses a video store and showcases touring musical acts, but those operate separately from the movie exhibition. If Bliss's movies — and he rarely shows more than three titles at any time — do not pull in that $2,000 each week, it becomes a challenge to afford the rent and advertising.
By 1997, only one movie from a big Hollywood studio, Jerry Maguire, had made the final cut of Best Picture nominees at the Academy Awards. That year Bliss had first pick of most of the other top Oscar contenders.
"Last year was the turning point." Bliss says. "We got lucky. We had English Patient, Secrets & Lies, Shine, Sling Blade. We had them all. The distributors let me have them."
Liberty Hall held onto the Best Picture winner, The English Patient, for more than four months, taking in $25,000 off that title alone. Shine and Sling Blade took in an average of $12,000 each, playing for two-month stretches. In contrast, most of the 25 to 30 movies Bliss plays each year rarely stay open longer than a couple of weeks.
Bliss and Liberty Hall's problem attracting top independent films arose when the big studios bought out many of the independent distributors, Tibbetts says.

Eyewitness accounts and police reports differ
By Ronnie Wachter
wachter@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The two University of Kansas students who were with Lisa Rosel in the 1400 block of Tennessee Street on Tuesday night said she did not fall down in the street before being fatally injured by a vehicle.
Rosel was hit at 11:55 p.m. by a 1997 Mitsubishi Montero driven by Matthew Vestal. Englewood, Colo.. freshman.
Angie Boley, Eden Prairie, Minn., freshman, and Billy Hogan, Minnetonka, Minn., freshman, said yesterday that other details Lawrence police released about the accident were incorrect as well.
"She did not fall down in the street."
"I was four feet away." Boley said. "I know she didn't fall. I see it in my head every time I close my eyes."
Hogan said. "I was five feet away from her, and I reached out to grab her, but she was too far away."
Boley said she also was close to Rosel before Rosel was struck by the car.
Lawrence Police Sgt. George Wheeler said police officers were reviewing witnesses' accounts of the accident and re-examining some of the information released on Wednesday. The re-examination includes whether Rosel had fallen down in the street before she was hit.
"That's going to be a point of contention," he said. "We're getting conflicting information about that."
Hogan also said the vehicle the three students were walking toward, which he owns, was a Ford Bronco II. Lawrence police said Wednesday the car was a Ford Explorer.

14th Street." she said.
"We did the autopsy on her yesterday, and we examined the driver as well, but we won't know the exact results of those soon." Wheeler said.
Wheeler said police officers also analyzed skid marks at the scene.
Boley said although they had been in Bull Winkles, 1344 Tennessee St., before the accident occurred, they were not drunk.
"I think that they've completed their analysis, but I don't know when it will be ready for release." Wheeler said.
Christine Tonkovich, Douglas County
Lindsay Wacholz and Lindsey McClean,
Quincy, Ill., freshmen who were in the Montero when the accident occurred, had no comment about the incident. Vestal could not be reached for comment.
"The investigation has not been given to us, and we will not make any facts in the case public," she said.

Restaurant encounters fight, gunshot, theft
A small fight Wednesday morning at Dos Hombres escalated and resulted in a gunshot being fired in the restaurant's parking lot.
During the fight, an undetermined amount of money also was stolen from the front door of Dos Hombres, 815 New Hampshire St., Lawrence Police Sgt. George Wheeler said. The fight began on the restaurant's patio at about 1:25 a.m., Wheeler said.
Kenny Gall, Dos Hombres entertainment director, said the fight moved into the parking lot where an unidentified man pointed a gun in the air and fired a shot.
Wheeler said the restaurant's bouncer tried to break up the fight, leaving a blue Mercantile Bank bag with an undetermined amount of door money in it unguarded. After the fight was stopped, the bouncer found the money bag had been stolen, Wheeler said.
Gall said the fight occurred during a rap group's performance. He said Dos Hombres had presented rap shows in the past but the restaurant would not have them any more.
"I booked the rap show to give the group a chance to play a concert before a live audience," he said. "I thought that since audiences are unable to see these shows anywhere else, they would appreciate it. They did not, and they could not maintain a civil order, and it won't happen again."
a law order, and it were thieves again. The suspects, who were unidentified, left the scene before police arrived, Wheeler said.
Man threatens clerk, refuses to pay penny
A Lawrence man unwilling to pay more
than 52 cents for a 53-cent copy of Tuesday's Lawrence Journal-World assaulted a Texaco employee. Law enforcement police said.
Sgt. George Wheeler said at 8:25 a.m.
Tuesday a Lawrence man entered Texaco,
1030 N. Third St., and picked up a copy of
the Journal-World.
"He looked at the line to the cash register, whereupon he determined that the line was too long," Wheeler said. "He walked up to the front, and put 52 cents on the counter."
Wheeler said the clerk, a 37-year-old Lawrence woman, noticed the change was a penny short of the paper's cost.
"She pointed to the penny exchange cup by the register and told him to take one," Wheeler said.
The man walked out of the store and got in his car without giving her the full 53 cents. Wheeler said.
"She runs out to the car and says 'That's 53 cents!" Wheeler said. "She was behind the car, and he backed out."
The clerk felt threatened and called police, Wheeler said.
"His statement was that he didn't intend to hurt her in any way." Wheeler said.
The man still has not paid the 53 cents and still has the newspaper. Wheeler said
and still has the newspaper, Wheeler said. Police identified the suspect, but no arrest was made.
"We're going to give it to the district attorney's office and see what they want to do with it."

Proposed budget curbs state funded abortions
or a substantial impairment of a major bodily function.
The House's version of a proposed state budget includes a provision that would prevent state workers' health insurers from paying for abortions except in cases of medical emergencies.
The policy defines a medical emergency as a situation threatening a woman's life
In other instances, a state worker still could obtain an abortion but would have to pay for it out of her own pocket.
NATION
"We're spending taxpayers' money on abortions," said Rep. Mike Farmer, R-Wichita, an opponent of abortion rights. "The majority of Kansans and the Ameri-can public alike do not believe government should be funding abortions."
Farmer noted similar language is contained in a law enacted this year banning most abortions at the University of Kansas Medical Center's hospital.
Judge Wright's decision was proper, experts say
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — Legal experts say it took courage for U.S. District Judge Susan Webber Wright to discard Paula Jones' sexual harassment lawsuit in the face of political pressure from conservative groups for a trial.
But from a legal standpoint, they said, she made the obvious decision.
"She screened out any political biases on her part, any political favor," said Robert Savage, chairman of the University of Arkansas political science department. "She looked at it clearly, objectively."
An outspoken Clinton critic, Little Rock lawyer Charles Suphan, said: "The judge simply made a decision based on the standard of the law, and I'm sure she acted in good conscience and ruled properly."
Three years ago, Judge Wright granted Clinton's request to delay Jones' trial until after he left the presidency.
"To the extent that it was one of the most highly publicized cases ever, it seem-d to me that it was by the book," said attorney Lawrence Fox of Philadelphia, former chairman of the American Bar Association's litigation section.

Service held for freshman killed on break
By Laura Roddy

A floral arrangement, two candles and a photo collage of a smiling Heather Norris and her friends rested on a table in the Spooner Hall courtward.
Students and faculty, Office of Admissions staff and football players, KU Ambassadors and friends formed an arc around the table, filling the courtyard. More than 150 people gathered at 6 p.m. yesterday to honor the memory of Norris.
The University of Kansas freshman, a 19-year-old from Ballwin, Mo. was killed in a March 24 car crash on Interstate 44 six miles west of Lebanon, Mo.
The 45-minute service was videotaped to send to her parents.
Norris was a McCollum Hall resident, KU Ambassador, equipment manager for the KU football team and Natural History Museum volunteer.
The Rev. Vincent Krische of the St. Lawrence Catholic Campus Center began the service with a prayer. He asked mourners to think about the difference knowing Norris made in their lives.
About 10 of Norris' friends and colleagues shared their thoughts and memories.
One friend asked, "What can you say about a perfect angel?"
Another said, "Treasure your memory of her. Heather loved and enjoyed every minute of her life."
Tracie Schuler, Office of Admissions graduate assistant, said Norris shared her enthusiasm for the University with prospective students while leading weekly campus tours.
"Every Thursday morning, she came in with the biggest smile." Schuler said.
He compared life to a jigsaw puzzle and said that the pieces of it were the people, places and events experienced.
Frank DeSalvo, director of counseling and psychological services, offered mourners a way to make sense of death and loss.
"Death doesn't mean you toss that piece away," DeSalvo said. "Heather was a permanent part of your lives, so find a place for it."
The service ended with Norris' favorite song, What a Wonderful World.
"Now it's time to close this book and go on with the good memories," Schuler said.

Candidate campaigns interfere
Student senators juggle elections, current positions
- By Marc Sheforgen and Melissa Ngo msheforgen@kansan.com mgna@kansan.com
Kansan staff writers
The abilities of Scott Kaiser.
Campus Cause candidate for
student body vice president, and Emily Heath, Delta Force candidate for student body president, are being questioned by some opposing coalition members.
Scott Sullivan, student body president, said he spoke to both Kaiser and Heath about the consequences of letting campaign activities interfere with their office hours.
"I told them that if their office performance was not what was expected, there was the possibility that they might be fired," Sullivan said.
Kaiser, transportation coordinator, is contracted with the transportation board to serve 20 office
hours a week. Heath, Center for Community Outreach co-director, is contracted with Student Senate to hold 15 office hours a week.
Last month, Kaiser told the transportation board he planned to reduce his hours in order to concentrate on campaigning.
Filling in for Kaiser is assistant transportation coordinator, Nicole Skalla. Skalla, Delta Force candidate for a Nunemaker seat, was recently elected as next year's transportation coordinator and officially takes over April 23.
Erika Nutt, transportation board secretary, said Kaiser should not be reducing his hours.
"I personally think that Scott was chosen to do a job this year," said Nutt, Delta Force candidate for a social welfare seat. "If he can't fulfill his obligations at this position, there's no way we should elect him for the vice-president position next year."
Kaiser said he would be better serving students by concentrating on the position he is running for than by working 20 hours a week for the remainder of his term.

Kaiser: Reduced transportation board office hours
Tuesday, Heath spoke to a class about Alternative Spring Break during her office hours.
"Things like that and meetings about CCO are sometimes how I serve my office hours," Heath said.
Heath said she did attend two Delta Force brown bag lunches during her scheduled office hours but she had posted she would not be in the office and said she later made up the time.
"I think it's really disappointing when people are neglecting their jobs and duties that they are supposed to be performing to run for an office," said Matt McGuire, Campus Cause off campus senate.

Kaiser and Heath record their office hours in a log book at the Organizations and Leadership Development Center. The book shows both have been there less than the hours required.

Heath: Says she makes up for time away from office
But the log book does not reflect the total amount of time each spend working on their respective jobs, said Bill Nelson, associate director of organizations and leadership. The log simply tallies the hours Kaiser and Heath are in the office.
Kelly Huffman, Student Executive Committee chair, said he had not seen a problem with Heath or Kaiser with serving their office hours.
"What I've seen is that the people from each coalition have been accusing the other," Huffman said. "I don't know how much of it is politicking and how much of it is legitimate. I don't think our office is suffering by any means."
Smart card will get smarter in future
By Gerry Doyle
Students at the University of Kansas shouldn't put their old ID card back in the deck just yet.
By Gerry Doyle
gdoyle@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Although the new smart cards are being distributed beginning at 9 a.m. Monday, many of their capabilities will not be realized until next fall, said Nancy Miles, campus card manager.
The Coca-Cola company will have about 30 machines outfitted to use the new ID cards next week, Miles said. However, features like meal plans, KU on Wheels and the KU libraries only will be available in the future. The old ID cards still are needed now.
The lack of functions shouldn't be discouraging. Miles said.
"Initially, it will be very, very limited," she said. "It'll be nip and tuck at first. But as time goes on, years from now, the IDs will have a lot more functionality."
Above all, Miles said, students should not be quick to ditch their old KUIDs.
Kent Miller, library facilities officer, said although switching IDs for something like checking out books might seem straightforward, the new cards could not be used until the summer session. New equipment still was necessary, and upgrading takes time, he said.
"Keep your card," she said. "Do not toss it. The current ID is used for all the things you normally need an ID for."
As a result, students still will use their old KUID cards to check out books at the library.
"We're converting from scannable numeric code to an encrypted mag stripe," he said. "We'll have to change all the reading technology, as will all the computer work stations. We have a lot of stuff on order and being worked on. So the cards are going out now, but we're not quite there yet."
Not having all the cards' functions available yet is a small haul, but not really a big deal,

Kansans wouldn't be in any sort of heaven with corporate hog farms
The Seaboard Corporation wants to fatten its pockets with a swine farm in Great Bend that could slaughter about 4 million hogs per year and bring 2,400 jobs. While some legislators are eating up the idea, small-scale farmers and the Kansas ecosystem would be the ones most adversely affected.
The Kansas Legislature should not allow the company to build its farms.
Seaboard already has begun recruiting central Kansas farmers to raise the 10,500 hogs the plants usually hold. This form of corporate agriculture would be devastating to family-owned farms that cannot compete economically with mass marketing.
Nearby inhabitants of the corporate farms also would lose out. They would have to live with the stench of open lagoons that would hold the waste produced by the hogs until it could be sprayed on fields. These lagoons also would damage the environment, particularly if constructed near valuable sources of water. Although not likely to
be constructed near Lawrence, if these farms affect the drinking water in one part of the state, Lawrence drinking water eventually could be affected.
A proposed site near Liberal would be located near the Cimmarona River, a potential source of drinking water. Cheyenne Bottoms, a wildlife refuge only five miles north of Great Bend, would be ill-affected by potential manure spills which could harm wildlife such as the endangered whooping crane.
House Bill 2950 proposes measures that would regulate the distances at which lagoon could be placed from water sources and habitable structures. While intentions are good, this bill has some loopholes. The regulations were based largely on research conducted by Kansas State University about the adverse effects of the hog farms. However, the study will not be finished until October 1999.
The Legislature should not make a decision that would affect the Kansas
environment and many Kansas residents without all of the facts.
Hog carcasses and disease also could become a problem if corporate hog farms are allowed. Current regulations allow carcasses to be picked up within 48 hours. However, the Kansas Sierra Club warns in hot temperatures carcasses can burst and breed files within 30 hours. Seaboard has a bad reputation for adhering to even lax regulations. The corporation has been fined $89,900 for improper disposal and has disposed of about 35,000 dead hogs per month at its farms in Oklahoma.
If the Legislature passes this bill, and Gov. Bill Graves signs it, Seaboard would endanger the Kansas ecosystem and exploit it. The risks far outweigh any potential economic benefits of corporate hog farms.
This proposal would affect all Kansas. KU students and Kansas residents should write their legislators and tell them not to allow corporate hog farming in Kansas.

Drinking requires responsibility
Drinking alcohol is not all fun and games. With the privileges of imbibery come many responsibilities. KU students who drink should make every effort to be responsible, safe drinkers.
The responsibilities are numerous and the consequences of irresponsibility can be deadly.
When students drink irresponsibly, without taking safety measures, they put their lives and others' lives at risk. Too often, drinkers succumb to the temptation to drive themselves home from bars or parties, despite their intoxication. Maybe it is convenient to
drive oneself home, but convenience is not worth the risk. When students consider driving after a night on the town, they should ask themselves, "Am I willing to risk death, simply for convenience?"
Nor should students risk the lives of others in such a way — but this is exactly what people who have been drinking do when they get behind the wheel.
Underage drinkers have even greater responsibilities. Although it is illegal for them to drink, they may think that they should have that right, that they are mature adults. But if these underage drinkers want to prove that they are truly responsible adults, they must act the part. Being irresponsible, unsafe drinkers and risking lives is not the way to accomplish the goal.
a dangerous place, whether drunk or sober.
Also, drinkers can be unsafe even when not in a car. They may not pay attention to who they are with, or what they are doing, putting themselves in risky situations. The world is
Before going out this weekend, or any time, students should consider how they will get home safely, and make responsible decisions.

Most college students have an anecdote about a dumb thing that they did under the influence that they are able to laugh about in hindsight. Look-
tions that people sometimes cite when they try to comprehend a tragedy such as the untimely death of a fellow student. "It was her time" doesn't satisfy me. "That's just life" is equally uncomfortable. Even theological explanations that I usually find peace with sometimes leave me still pondering the "But why?" notion.
ing back at four years of college, I have my share of escapades that I can laugh off, but I also learned what it was like to make a truly dumb and devastating decision after drinking too much.
It's always the "Why" question that trips us. The harder we search for truth, the harder it becomes to find. This is the paradox: The more we try to find out, the more we realize we can never know. It's like gasping for breath underwater.
We come up empty, unsurprisingly, when we try to mend our broken souls with the larger truths that are so hard to find. But if we narrow our sights and try to derive meaning, that can be more usable to repair our spirit. So coming to terms with troubling events is thus a question of focus. We have to focus on asking, "What does this mean to me?" instead of "Why did this happen?"
Because there are no answers that can justify tragedy. There are only questions. But in asking those questions and searching for some shred of truth — even if we are destined never to find it — we can interpret meaning. The search for truth may be a futile exercise, but the search for meaning is not.
My mistake was driving. During a trip to my apartment, when I certainly should have walked, I instead drove and wounded up flipping my car. Thankfully, I only injured myself, not a passerboy or another motorist as I easily could have.
Narrowing my focus to a specific meaning rather than a broad truth quelled some of my frustration and put my guilt on hold.
On the other hand, Lisa did not try to drive home. Her choice was to walk. She seemed to have made a relatively responsible decision, and yet she died. I made a stupid choice and, for no apparent reason, I lived.
That doesn't mean that I was able to get a decent night's rest last night, nor do I expect to go to bed tonight with a reconciled heart.
It seems strange to be so bothered by the death of someone whom I never met. No matter how much I try to balance the events, the inequity in outcome does not make for emotional equilibrium. Not only because I feel a pang of guilt, but also because I feel frustrated at not being able to understand why lightning struck where it did.
I can't let go of that.
But I have some idea as to the meaning of my accident, and I have interpolated a broader understanding of what life means to me afterward. As time passes, I may be able to understand why Lisa died instead of me, and from that meaning, catch a fleeting glimpse of a greater shred of truth.
At least, I hope so.
In an attempt to answer the 'Why' questions, I have considered the hollow justifica-

Column appreciated but contained errors
First I want to thank you, John Colbert, for the tribute article you wrote about the tragic and unfortunate death of Lisa Rosel. She was an admirable, outgoing person who deserved a tribute and much attention. But I believe that when you actually see and experience such a traumatic event, it goes all too fast and is in a sort of surreal haze, therefore making it difficult to obtain an exact picture of what actually happened. I was with those three that made the untimely trip across the street that Tuesday night, and I would like to clear up a few things that actually happened.
I had met with my friends at Bull Winkle's about an hour after they had been there. The four of us, Rosel and her two close friends, William Hogan and Angie Boley, all walked outside of the bar to leave at the same time at about 11:50 a.m. My car was parked up the street, in the opposite direction of where Hogan's Bronco, in which the three of them had arrived, was parked. I bid him good night and crossed the street to get into my vehicle. After only about 10 paces, I heard the same horrible impact and screeching of the Montero that you did, and I turned around and ran back toward my friends to get a closer look. She was under the back wheel on the driver's side in a mangled position. The screaming of the "don't die, please don't die," was her close friend, Hogan, who was with her to take her home. The driver of the Montero did nothing of the sort. Hogan was the one in hysteries, the one pleading for the salvation of her life, not the driver at all.
Also, let's be rational about the accident. You said the driver was going at least thirty miles per hour. To hit someone hard enough to take their life away instantaneously, you would have to be at going at least thirty miles per hour or certainly faster than that, and certainly would have to be not paying attention to the road at all. If he had, none of this would have occurred.
I am not trying to blame anyone. It was such an unnecessary death, and our sympathies go out to Lisa's family, her friends and to Matthew Vestal, the driver of the vehicle.
In a way, two lives were ruined that night. I agree with
Rick Shearer Leawood junior
you in that it was the most tragic thing I have ever seen, and none of us that were there have been able to think about virtually anything else since. This puts life in perspective and makes you realize what is really important; your family and your friends. I just felt that it needed to be mentioned, and that her friends did all that they could. It is not easy when there is nothing you can do, yet you feel so helpless.
Alternative break coverage lacking
As a participant in the alternative Spring Break program, I was disappointed in your coverage of the break. I was a member of the Detroit site. Yes, we got lost a few times, but so what? That did not take away our purpose, which was to work with inner-city schools and promote peace and violence prevention. As a person, I was changed by the Detroit trip. I realized that what we were doing was not only important and beneficial for the children but to myself as well. I learned the impact that we as individuals have on children and teens simply by listening. I know we made an impact because several of the children called later reporting violence and accepting their responsibilities as peacemakers to report such acts.
It really saddens me that The University Daily Kansan did not focus on this aspect of the trip, because 10 years from now. I will not remember getting lost, but I will never forget the experience I had interacting with such great kids and teens.
Sarah Banker Wamego junior
As executive producer of this year's Rock Chalk Revue, I would like to make a statement regarding this year's show.
We were not made aware of the Native American Student Association's concerns until less than one week prior to opening night. We immediately opened rehearsals and invited representatives of the Native American Student Association to watch the skit for themselves.
Revue producer recounts show's saga
Representatives of the Native American Student Association and the Black Student Union first watched the skit on the Tuesday prior to the show.
Immediately follow the skit, executive director Kyle Evans and I met with representatives from both the Native American Student Association and the Black Student Union for more than three hours.
The meeting helped us to understand and appreciate their point of view and led us to make several changes in the script of "Don't Drink the Water."
Prior to the rehearsal of the revised skit the following evening, we again met with representatives from both the Native American Student Association and the Black Student Union along with the directors of "Don't Drink the Water." Although the representatives of the Native American Student Association made it clear that they wanted us to remove the skit from the Revue, we felt that we had come to an agreement with them.
And, although we did not remove the skit from the show, we made the changes that they requested.
After immediately opening rehearsals and hosting two days of intense discussions and revising the skit numerous times, on Opening Night it was apparent that still not everyone was happy. However, in the time allowed, the meetings—and the revisions they brought about—were the best we could do.
In the future we will search for and find ways to better integrate multicultural perspectives into our judging process. This has been a good learning experience and has opened the door for good dialogue between next year's Advisory Board and other campus organizations.
While we strive to put on a high-quality show year after year, we make no claims that we are professionals. When the majority of this year's cast first stepped foot onto the stage in the Lied Center, it was the first time they had stepped onto a stage anywhere. And for many, it will be the last time they step onto a stage. We are amateurs. We are students from the University of Kansas who are trying to raise money for the United Way and have a good time doing so.

Guest speaker takes shot against U.S. drug policy
By Chris Horton
khorton@kansan.com
kansan staff writer
About 200 people crowded the Kansas Room in the Kansas Union to listen to an expert speak about the federal government's longest and most extensive war — the war on drugs.
Clifford Schaffer was invited to the University by KU Libertarians and the University's chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union to speak about American drug policy.
Schaffer has compiled an extensive online library of drug policy. He also co-wrote the Hoover Resolution for Stanford University's Hoover Institute, which he said focused on the damage drug policies have inflicted on the American people.
Clark Massey, KU Libertarians president and Plano, Texas, senior, said his organization thought drug legalization was a topic with which students could identify.
"We tried a speaker on social security reform last year, but there wasn't sufficient student interest," Masssey said. "Also, we really believe drugs should be legalized."
Schaffer's speech, "The History of the Drug War — How We Got into This Mess: a Tale of Lunacy and Lunatics" covered the history of drug use and its penalization.
"The drug war is built on ignorance and requires ignorance to survive," said Schaffer.
Schaffer said the Internet would serve as the catalyst necessary for drug legalization. He said it was difficult to find an anti-legalization home page or chat room on the Internet.
"You will not find anyone defending the drug war on the Internet," he said. "You will only find those in favor of legalization."
Schaffer based many of the statements in his speech on research conducted by the federal government. He used the research to illustrate the hypocrisy he saw in American drug policy.
"The federal government considers a laethal dose of marijuana for an individual to be one third of their body weight," he said. "Because so much marijuana is lost in smoking, one would have to smoke an amount just under their body weight in one hour to do themselves in."
In addition to attacking policies that make certain drugs illegal, Schaffer spoke about legal drugs.
Alcohol and tobacco kill more people every year than all illegal drugs combined in the last century, he said.
John Bieberly, Wichita sophomore, said the federal government's war on drugs was a joke.
"Other countries that treat drug use differently don't have a problem with it." he said.
Schaffer said anybody with questions about drug effects or policy should check out the Schaffer Online Library of Drug Policy. The library's address is http://www.druglibrary.org

Students mingle with alumni
Biological sciences social introduces like-minded people
By Emily C. Forsyth
aforsyth@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The second biological sciences spring mixer brought students, faculty, staff and the alumni advisory board together to discuss common interests last night.
About 75 people attended the mixer from 7 to 9 p.m. at the panorama room in the Natural History Museum.
Kandi White, business manager for the department and an organizer of the event, said the mixer was an opportunity for students to connect with people working in their field of study.
"I think the students get to hear about the board members' experiences when they were at KU." White said. "They get to hear about what the board members are doing with their degrees, where they went after they left KU."
The alumni advisory board will hold its semiannual meeting today. The 14 board members are graduates of the KU biological sciences program. Board members are professionals and educators from across the country.
"It's a way for us to listen to the needs of the students and perhaps build on what we already have," Orr said.
James Orr, biological sciences department chairman, said board members enjoyed learning about students' research and interacting with students on a social level.
Seventeen students presented posters with the results of undergraduate research projects. Each student who presented a poster received a $25 gift certificate to the Kansas Union Bookstore, sponsored by a board member.
would continue to develop financial support for new and active programs.
Charlotte Bell, associate professor of anesthesiology at Yale University School of Medicine, will become the chairwoman of the board today. She said the board
Chad Travers, Iola senior, said he enjoyed talking with a professor of physiology who taught 20 years ago.
"It's a good, informal way for alumni to interact with students and see what's going on at the grassroots level," MacDonald said.
Jennifer MacDonald, Hays senior, said it was important for alumni to see evidence of students' work, such as the posters.
"Right now, science is really exciting," Travers said. "It's developing so quickly that it's difficult to gauge what kind of social effect scientific progress will have."

Continued from page 1A
When the Hollywood studios entered the picture, independent films lost their edge.
"The alternative became the Hollywood mainstream," Tibbets says.
And that alternative is grim, very grim, for Liberty Hall's business.
When The Full Monty, a ribald British import, opened on 387 U.S. screens in September and grossed nearly $3 million in its first week. Bliss was eager to book it. Such a popular film could play five months. He began going through the usual channels to acquire Monty. But the distributor, Fox Searchlight
Pictures, instead chose to distribute the movie at multiplexes.
"It was really tough this fall," he says. "We were banking on The Full Monty, and for all practical purposes, I thought we were getting Full Monty. Then it caught fire and Hollywood had to have it.
"That was our fall, and it destroyed our fall," he said. "It was grim, very grim."
Ironically, it was Monty's success that hurt Liberty Hall, said Richard Shamban, division sales manager for Fox Searchlight in Los Angeles, who pointed out that the movie did play in other art houses.
"Liberty Hall still will play Fox Searchlight films," he says, citing last fall's The Ice Storm as an example. "But South Wind had asked for Full Monty, so on this picture, we decided to go with South Wind."
In February, the situation repeated itself when Robert Duvall's preacher drama *The Apostle*, played across town instead of at Liberty Hall.
Rob Schulze, distributor for October Films in Los Angeles, decided where The Apostle would play in Lawrence. Other art houses in larger markets, such as the Tivoli Theatre in Kansas City, Mo., did have a shot at the movie, he said.
"When you play something that's got a broader appeal, you have to ask if it will play better in a small theater or a commercial house." Schulz says. "How a movie plays in New York or Los Angeles is not going to determine how it will play in Lawrence, Kansas."
Tibbets finds the distributors' affair with multiplexes curious, considering that the suburban outlets are notoriously unkind to offbeat fare.
Apparently, that view isn't shared by Miramax. Bliss was disappointed to learn that he wouldn't receive the company's big hit of the winter, Good Will Hunting.
"Good Will Hunting?" he said. "Never had a shot at it. They told me up front, 'You cannot have this.' Everybody wants it, forget it."
"And why? It's a Gus Van San movie. It's a small picture. There's no reason we couldn't play it and do well with it." Bliss says, sounding like a loyal boyfriend who's been stood up too many times.
"We had a great relationship with Miramax for so long," he says. "We played everything. We played their junk, and even if it did $200 a week, we still played it, because it was Miramax. They were our bread and butter, but now they're considered a major studio.
"
Not only did Miramax stiff Liberty Hall, its distribution and marketing team in New York refused numerous requests for an interview.
Bliss says things will pick up at Liberty Hall.
He already has scored one coup by booking Lawrence's only print of The Big Lebowski. He credits the triumph to the fact that its distributor, Gramercy, is one of the last true independents.
"We're so much more personalized," Bliss says. "We have fliers. We do more than just a little ad in the newspaper."
And the crowds, who helped to sell out many of the early shows, are loving Lebowski. The laughter and cheering has been so intense that about a third of the one-liners are lost in the din. When the credits roll, the audience members do something practically unheard of today.
They applaud.
"When you have a good weekend, it's just a 180-degree turn," Bliss says. "The only things you start to worry about are how you'll fit all these people in and how you'll get them back out again."
"This is my livelihood. I sleep, drink, eat, and I dream about this theater every night. It's not something I'm going to easily let go of."

GTAs' days numbered with new semester rule
By Susie Gura
sgura@kansan.com
Kanson staff writer
Graduate teaching assistants from now on will have a limited stay at the University of Kansas.
The University is establishing a 10-sester limit on graduate teaching assistantships. With the limit, the University only will pay a GTA's tuition and salary for 10 semesters. The proposal began and was passed in the Office of the Provost.
"A final draft of the document has been circulated to the heads of the departments," Provost David Shulenburger said. "It would have to take a lot of convincing to change it."
The limit will affect first-year GTAs who began teaching in the fall of 1997.
Contracts signed by veteran GTAs in the fall of 1997 recognized the University's right to enforce terms of employment, which included implementing the 10-semester plan if necessary.
"The memorandum of agreement that was signed recognizes our right to do it," said Jeannette Johnson, assistant to the provost.
However, a grandfather clause added to the contract exempts those GTAs who were not in the first year of their assistantships in Fall 1997.
"This really won't affect anyone for four-and-a-half years, so it is nothing to be too concerned about." Johnson said.
Ann Cudd, director of graduate studies in philosophy, said she was sorry to see this policy established.
"I think it is horrible," Cudd said. "It guarantees that less experienced GTAs will be teaching courses, and we will be getting rid of people just when they start getting good."
Shulenburger said departments should focus on redesigning their programs to allow students to finish in five years.
"It is not good to have students in programs for eight to 10 years,"he said.
Several brown bag lunches have been held this year with department chairmen to discuss this issue.
"We hope that department heads do not stand for this," said Stephen Mathis, GTA in Western Civilization. "It undermines the
Other GTAs said they thought issues of tuition funding also should be left to the departments.
department autonomy."
Kevin Armitage, GTA in Western Civilization, said the departments knew the students and their work, and therefore they should be the ones making the decision.
"It should not be decided in Strong Hall but in each individual department." Armitage said.
Some GTAs said they thought this policy would not only hurt them but also the University.
"This will affect the University's ability to attract graduate students," Armitage said. "The lack of funding is a severe hurdle to attract students."
Mathis said the University gave GTAs higher teaching loads than peer institutions, and GTAs were not able to get through graduate programs as quickly.
Shulenburger has discussed the limits with deans during the last eight months.
Johnson said, "A draft document has been discussed with the chairs of departments, and modifications may be made."
KUIDs needed to elect senators
By Melissa Ngo
mmo@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Students will need their KUIDs, not their smart cards, to vote in this month's Student Senate elections, said Nancy Miles, campus card manager.
"Students will need to keep both their KUIDs and smart cards throughout the semester and summer because KUIDs might be required for certain services until they get changed over," Miles said.
A student may vote only after enrollment status is confirmed by both a KUID and an enrollment roster, said Audrey Nogle, Elections Commissioner.
Poll workers are hired through Addeco, an employment agency, and could be paid as much as $7.83 per hour, Nogle said.
The Elections Commission pays for poll workers and other elections costs with money from Student Senate funds, said Brad Finkeldei, Elections Commission chair.
Adecco may give the commission a discount because of the large number of workers hired, Nogle said.
"The only qualification that the workers have to meet is that they

can't be a KU student," Finkeldei said.
Ballot sorters, unpaid workers who verify the ballots, have to be approved by the candidates, Nogle said. Candidates have until April 14 to object to any ballot sorters.
The elections will be held April 15 and 16 with polling sites at the Burge Union, the Kansas Union, Haworth Hall, Strong Hall, Wescoh Hall, Ekdahl Dining Center, Gertrude Sellards-Pearson Hall and Oliver Hall.
"The candidates are being cordial to each other and there have been no problems so far," Finkeldei said.
Finkeldei said the elections process had been running smoothly.

Pi Beta Phi sorority will celebrate its 125th year at the University of Kansas this weekend.

Ellen Williams, a Pi Beta Phi alumnus who organized the Holiday Inn program, said while the lodge had been altered for use by the Continuing Education department, members who lived there probably still would like to see it and find their old rooms one last time before it is demolished in the fall.
The lodge has housed the Continuing Education Department since the sorority left in 1961. It will be replaced by a parking garage.
The program at the Holiday Inn will begin at 6:30 p.m. and will feature the sorority's International Grand President, Beat Bethy, and

Interracial dating gains favor
Couples still struggle for family approval
By Angela Johnson Special to the Kansan
Marie D'Agostino and Brian Ewhanks are a perfect match.
"We're real compatible," Ewbanks said. "We were friends before we started dating, and we'll always be friends no matter what."
The couple, who have been dating for a year, love to travel and enjoy going to clubs. Most importantly, they make each other laugh.
There is one difference between D'Agostino, Leawood freshman, and Ewbanks, Kansas City, Mo., resident. He's African American and she's white.
It is a minor difference, one that in the past decade has become more widely accepted in society.
In 1958, about 5 percent of white American adults approved of interracial marriages. Today, about 62 percent approve, said Norman Yetman, professor of sociology and American studies.
Still, some interracial couples say they experience problems, especially within their families.
"My parents are from an uppermiddle class society, and they don't approve of me dating
"No, 1. I don't judge. Second, it's her busine-s, and she will take care of it," Ewbanks said. "Any interference from me right now would only make matters worse."
Brian," D'Agostino said. "Mainly they worry about me getting hurt (emotionally), and what other people will think."
Ewbanks said that, at this stage in the relationship, the issue should stay within the family.
With time, he said he hoped her family will see past skin color and judge him by how he treats their daughter.
"As long as they see that I'm not trying to harm her, they'll understand," Ewbanks said. "I don't want them to think I'm taking their daughter away from them."
Relationships between African Americans and whites create most of the tension about interracial dating in our society, Yetman said.
"The opposition against Asians and whites or Hispanics and whites in relationships is less than blacks and whites," Yetman said. "Younger people tend to be more tolerant with this kind of issue."
Laurie Weeks, Lawrence freshman, dated a student of Japanese descent when they both were juniors at Lawrence High School. She said they were friends before they started dating.
Weeks said they made the transition from friends to dating when
she was working on a yearbook story at the state swim meet, in which he was competing. On the next interview, he asked her out.
"He's a flirt," Weeks said. "He has a good sense of humor, and he's one of those guys who's good at whatever he does."
The relationship wasn't a problem with her parents, but it was with her grandparents and older relatives.
"They're all pretty old and set in their ways," Weeks said. "I tried not to let it influence me. I avoided the topic as much as possible."
"I know that the stereotypes of blacks are not true." she said.
Weeks said her boyfriend's family always made her feel comfortable.
Both D'Agostino and Ewbanks said eventually her family would accept their relationship.
"He grew up in Japan until he was five, then his family moved to Lawrence," she said. "They're very Americanized."
For couples in interracial dating relationships, race is not a constant issue. D'Agostino said she doesn't see Ewbanks as an African-American man.
"I would never make her choose me or her family." Ewbanks said. "The may be unhappy with her now, but that's their daughter, and they'll love her no matter what. I know that if I do right they'll come around."

Race relations, the link between German and French philosophers and lyrics of rap artist Snoop Doggy Dogg will be the topic of a speech tonight at the Spencer Museum of Art.
Michael Eric Dyson, the author of several books about the effects of race in American life will speak at 7 p.m. in the museum's auditorium. His best known book is *Race Rules*.
Dyson is a visiting distinguished professor of African-American studies at Columbia University in New York and directs the institute for research in African-American
studies at the university. Dyson also has a doctorate in philosophy from Princeton and is a Baptist minister.
"He has quite the gift of oratory, plus the substance," said Earle Knowlton, associate dean of the school of education. "It's as good a combination of those two things as it gets."
Dyson will be signing books after his talk, and books will be available for sale 30 minutes before and after the speech.
"His books tend to comment on American culture and the role of our racial relations, particularly African American and Caucasian," Knowlton said.
Alisa Branham, administrative
assistant to the dean of the school of education, said Dyson's speech would stress the importance of education.
Dyson credits the beginning of his intellectual life to a neighbor he had when he was growing up in Detroit.
The neighbor, intrigued by the 14-year-old Dyson who attended school and church and worked and competed in oratory contests, gave him her late husband's collection of the Harvard Classics, books of classic literature and mythology.
Tonight's speech is co-sponsored by the provost's office, the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences and the School of Education. The event is open to the public.

Action-adventure meets emotion
By Jeremy M. Doherty
jdoherty@kansan.com
Kanson movie critic
Gotta love these touchy-feely action movies.
Apparently, Bruce Willis got tired of doing so many hardcore adrenaline rides such as Die Hard and The Last Boy Scout.
FBI agent Art Jeffries (Bruce Willis) and an autistic boy Simon (Mike Hughes) star in the action-adventure movie *Mercury Rising*. Contributed photo
SIXTH BOSS
In Mercury Rising, he still gets to scowl at the bad guys and shell out his patented brand of brutal justice. But the character he plays struggles with feelings of guilt and futility after he bungles an undercover job. He is wounded, emotionally.
Sniff, sniff.
Actually, the movie has a pretty intriguing concept backing it up. A 9-year-old autistic savant named Simon, who is well-played by child actor Miko Hughes, cracks Mercury, a previously unbreakable military intelligence code.
The bureaucrats, led by a perfectly snakey Alec Baldwin, are in a panic. Many of their undercover agents including one who has worked his way into Saddam Hussein's inner circle are now potential sitting ducks. What to do?
Unfortunately, screenwriters Lawrence Konner and Mark Rosenthal don't have any fresh ideas. Their solution is to have Baldwin order a hit on the emotionally stunted lad and his parents.
Silly me. If I were Baldwin, I would have had the computer geeks change the code, and then I would have called the compromised agents in from the field. After that I'd crack open a six-pack of Bud and simply chalk it to another bad week in the world of intelligence.
Mercury Rising
Kansan Rating: **1/2 out of
****
Running time: 1 hour, 55 minutes Rated R for brief but intense violence and profanity
Of course, then we wouldn't have the distinct pleasure of watching Willis enter the scene as tormented FBI agent Art Jeffries. Turns out the high-tech killer dispatched by Baldwin somehow managed not to kill little Simon. Now, the junior Rain Man is prey to Baldwin's predator.
Because his earlier botched mission involved the death of two teenagers, Art feels a certain devotion to Simon. From that point on, Willis dodges bullets and busts jaws as usual, only this time he is lugging around a squirming, screaming kid in one arm.
Whoopee.
Mercury Rising just doesn't cut it because it isn't intense. Simon has a peculiar habit of wandering off into traffic, only to be rescued from death each time at the last minute by Art. it's all contrived — a boring series of car chases and bulging neck muscles without any true power.
Director Harold Becker forgets the best thrillers keep the audience guessing. Vertigo worked because we wanted to find out how far Jimmy Stewart would pursue his obsession with a dead woman. In *Mercury Rising*, the only question is how many bones Willis will crush before the bad guys give up.
Despite being so typical, there is a deliciously perverse scene toward
the end where Willis tortures Baldwin mentally by tampering with the guy's expensive wine collection.
With such star power at his disposal, it's too bad Becker didn't push his writers for more scenes like that.
Greased lightnin' strikes Travolta, audiences again
By Jeremy M. Doherty jdoherty@kansan.com Kanson movie critic
If there were any doubts as to the star status of John Travolta, the 1970s hit Grease should erase those concerns.
During the show-stopping production number, 'Greased Lightin', an unbelievably lean Travolta sings with his buddies about fast cars and hot girls. Flashing a dazzling grin and shaking his hips, he reminds us of the joyous, energetic youth who first conquered Hollywood 20 years ago.
Other than a digitally-overhauled soundtrack, this is very much the same corny, frivolous musical that broke box-office records in 1978. Surprisingly, it's probably a better movie today.
In 1978, audiences were being treated to a series of graphic, sobering films like Taxi Driver and One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest. Even crowd-pleasers like Star Wars and Rocky had a vaguely adult, self-aware aura about them. The fact that a musical could so shamelessly defy that sophistication (in an era when most were declaring the musical a dead genre) is impressive, to say the least.
Based on the hit Broadway musical by Jim Jacobs and Warren Casey. Grease chronicles
Grease

the up-and-down relationship of Danny (Travolta) and Sandy (Olivia Newton-John), two lovey-lovey kids who fall in love during the dog days of summer. Back at Rydell High. Danny is the leader of the leather-jacketed T-Birds, a group of duck-tailed reprobates.
To Danny's surprise, Sandy has transferred to Rydell, and he decides that he can't afford to look like a romantic schmee in front of his buds.
Like most musicals, *Grease's* plot is woefully simplistic. Oddly, that only adds to its charm today. What really matters is the music, and on that level, the movie delivers. Even the title song, written and performed by Barry Gibb, is an infectious tune.
CINEMAS DAILY
Sandy meanwhile attempts to fit in with Rizzo (Stockard Channing) and the Pink Ladies, and Danny veers between wooing Sandy and giving her the cold shoulder.
The appeal of *Grease* is that its makers were clearly aware what they were doing was silly, a rejection of the mature attitudes of the day. Its impact can be felt today, as the similarly
Sandy (Olivia Newton-John) and Danny (John Travolta) embrace in the re-release of 1978 boxoffice buster Grease. Contributed photo
corny Titanic recently triumphed over more serious contenders at the Oscars. Everything, from Frankie Avalon's serenade of Frenchy (Didi Conn) to Danny and Sandy's cheesy drive-in date, has been calculated as a send-up of musicals and 1950s exploitation flicks.
At the advance screening I attended, the folks were enjoying themselves immensely. Like The Rocky Horror Picture Show, Grease depends upon audience participation for its success. Be sure to check your ego at the door.

Kansan movie critic
The idea of Robert Altman, the king of alternative cinema, directing a John Grisham potbobler seems to make as much sense as leaving Marilyn Manson in charge of a Sunday school class.
That's the story behind The Gingerbread Man, however, and the gamble mostly pays off as the director of Nashville applies his loopy, off-kilter style to an otherwise standard legal thriller. Although the work isn't seamless, Altman more than anyone previously succeeds at nailing the Southern-fried hippiness that has long been a trademark of Grisham's best books.
Rick Magruder (Kenneth Branagh) is a fast-talking, publicity-courting lawyer practicing in Savannah, Ga. When he's not playing the public relations game in front of television cameras, he's flirting with his assistant (Daryl Hannah) and trying to maintain a relationship with his two children, who now live with his ex-wife.
After a dinner party, an inebriated Magruder ends up in bed with Mallory Doss (Embeth Davidtz), who helped cater the gala. This turns out to be pretty convenient for Mallory, whose uncultured father, Dixon (Robert Duvall), has been breaking into her house and occasionally swiping her car.
The noble-minded Magruder assists in the detention and incarceration of her loony dad, who lives in the woods with a group of fel-

ows who look like rejects from Deliverance. Later, this crew of mountain men busts Dixon out of the mental hospital, and Magruder and Mallory find themselves the targets of their vengeance.
Previous Grisham movies had a bland, homogenized feel that failed to exploit their Southern settings. That's not a problem with Gingerbread Man. Altmant reelies heavily on Georgian attitudes and customs, creating an eerie setting that recalls the best of David Lynch.
In fact, up until a silly kidnapping plot arises in the last half of the movie, Gingerbread Man's courtroom tricks were almost arbitrary. Then Altman simply loses interest in his story, and the movie resembles nothing so much as hack work
But if it's hack work, Altman still keeps mainstream audiences at bay with his directing signatures (long takes, roving cinematography and intentionally uneven editing). He also continues to find excuses to put his female actors in various stages of undress, although there's nothing on the order of Juliane Moore's infamous "nopanties" scene from Short Cuts.
Shakespeare vet Branagh gets to chew on a Southern drawl as Magruder, and he proves he doesn't need ruffled shirts and bare bodkins to hold our attention.
First-time director depicts dysfunctional family in film
By Jeremy M. Doherty jdoherty@kansan.com Kansan movie critic
The idea of Gary Oldman, scenery-chewer extraordinaire, stepping behind the camera is probably enough to really get those hemorrhoids churning.
The catch is that *Nil by Mouth*, Oldman's directing and writing debut, is practically devoid of any pretensions. The result is a flawed but undeniably gripping look at a poverty-strecken London family tormented by substance abuse and violence.
Wisely, Oldman shies away from offering trite solutions to these ageless problems. The result is one of the most sorrowful, painfully honest movies to come from a first-time director.
His wife, Valery (Kathy Burke), lives in constant terror of her husband.
Oldman also keeps his eye on Valery's brother, Billy (Charlie Creed-Miles), who lives in fear of his brother-in-law after he nearly bites his nose off.
The focus is on Ray (Ray Winstone), a heavy-drinking, foulmouthed brute who laughs it up with his buddies at the pub and terrorizes his family at home.
Nil by Mouth
Kansan rating: *** out of *****
Running time: 2 hours, 15 minutes
Rated R for pervasive strong language and depictions of alcoholism and domestic abuse
Billy is also a heroin addict, and he finds financial support for his habit from his well-meaning mother, Janet (Laila Morse).
In a scene that speaks volumes about the nature of drug abuse, Janet drives her son to a pusher but won't watch while Billy shoots up in the backseat.
Filming largely with a hand-held
fimera, Oldman's movie achieves
an effectively gritty style. Bathing
his actors in yellow fluorescent
lights, *Nil by Mouth* has the
unflinching realism of home movies.
Winstone offer a searing performance soaked in anger and vulgarity. Oldman effectively peels back the layers revealing Ray as an insecure, lonely man. The other actors also offer edgy and believable portraits.
Reportedly based on his own experiences growing up in London, the emotions in Nil by Mouth are clearly personal. In a way, that becomes one of the movie's faults. Oldman is so driven on exercising these demons the movie lacks any texture.

Tunnel system links University history, mystery
Above: The tunnel system connecting campus buildings is a source of curiosity for many students at the University. The tunnels, though wide spread, are not functional as pedestrian walkways. Right: The view through the door leading into the tunnel near facilities operations shows that the conditions inside are not meant for more than electrical wires and phone lines.

COUNT 'EM
So now you know that there are about three miles of tunnels snaking under the campus. But what other measurements and lengths? Here is a sample of what folks keep track of:
*Land: 1,058 acres (main campus)*
*Parking lots: 75 acres*
Sidewalks: 25 miles
Curbs: 35 miles
Curbs: 35 miles Water lines: 15 miles
Gas lines: Two miles
Storm sewers: 15 miles
Sanitary sewers: 10 miles
Street light cable:
1.5 miles
Street lights: 900 polar
Fire hydrants: 100
Source: Facilities Operations
Note: All measurements may not be entirely accurate.
Mike Reid, manager of the KU Bookstores:
"When I was at Emporia State, they had the same system. That's where they'd go to try to hide away. It was a spooky place.
Here, I believe, it's locked up."
life lingers slow in the tunnels beneath the University of Kansas, oblivious to masses of footsteps and passage of time.
P. R. SANDERS
From the chancellor's residence to Allen Field House and all along Jayhawk Boulevard and beyond, an underground network of three miles of tunnels connects close to 90 buildings on the main campus, Bob Porter, associate director of facilities operations, said.
"How much do you know about the University's tunnel system, and what are your thoughts about it?"
"They virtually touch every building in one form or another," Porter said. "From most of the buildings, you can go from building to building without ever touching the ground."
But tunnel travel isn't for everyone.
"Our tunnels are actually a utility tunnel." Porter said. "They are not a pedestrian tunnel by any stretch of the imagination."
Some of the tunnels are seven feet wide,seven feet tall and welllighted,but others are extremely cold,dirty,wet and crumbly,Porter said.
The tunnels transport steam heat from the power plant, and carry primary electric cables, transmission lines for the telephone system and the main network that goes across campus, said.
Porter recently walked along a narrow concrete corridor that led to one of the out side entrances to a tunnel nestled in the hillside behind Stauffer-Flint Hall.
The smell of the tunnel was one of fresh cold winter air colliding into dusty air from a closed attic.
He turned a key in the lock of a heavy, steel grate door. As he tugged, the door's hinges groaned as if screeching for a drop of oil. The lower edge of the door shoved leaves out of the way. Though the tunnel was warmer than the frigid winter air out side, a cold draft still sifted down through the corrugated metal ceiling and whittled itsway between collars and backbones.
A 24-inch steam pipe took up nearly half of the five-foot wide tunnel. Ribbons of electric cables and telephone wires lined the other wall of the tunnel.
This particular section did not appear to be traversable, at least not without a good deal of squirming and squeezing to fit through narrow spaces.
One of the warmest areas to be on cold winter days is a tunnel that is accessible from indoors. What starts out as a modern concrete structure inside the lower level of Wescoe Hall yields to a 100-year-old, hand-dug tunnel with limestone walls, a redbrick arched ceiling and brick floors that lead toward Strong Hall to the north and Budig Hall to the west. The atmosphere imparts the feeling of being in the catacombs of Paris — the gloomy expansion continues as far as the eye can see.
During the late 1960s when anti-war riots were going on at the University, most of the facilities operations employees were deputized. They stood guard at tunnel entrances so that no one could sabotage the electrical and phone lines that run through the tunnels.
Porter, who has worked at facilities operations since 1954, said that all entrances to the tunnels now were locked to prevent vandalism.
On a lighter note, Porter recalled when the campus used to be decorated at Christmas. Pranksters would take down the colored Christmas light bulbs and screw them into the light sockets that illuminated the tunnels.
"They used to slip through the tunnels to get into basketball games for free, but they were caught." Keary said.
The tunnel has even served as a temporary residence for at least one person, Porter said. A few years ago, there was evidence that someone had set up house in one of the tunnels, having furniture, a pallet for a bed and food.
Sgt. Chris Keary, KU Public Safety office, said the tunnels have been the gateway for entry to basketball games. Students would pry the seat off the concrete bench/tunnel ventilator outside Allen Field House and enter the tunnel.
"We have a standing joke where we tell new employees that when you're down in the tunnel don't stop moving because if
Porter said the only inhabitants of the tunnels now were cockroaches — big ones three inches long and one inch wide.
Here are some of the buildings on campus that have access to the University's tunnel system:

you do the cockroaches will probably keep carrying you on through," Porter said. About 50 facilities operations employees are familiar with the tunnel system.
The depth of the tunnels varies, Porter said. Some of the tunnels are seven to 12 feet under the ground, and in some cases, sidewalks serve as the roofs to the tunnels. In a strip behind Lippincott Hall on Mississippi Street, a tunnel is so close to the ground that grass won't grow on it and so warm in the winter that snow melts off the area.
"We go through the tunnels at least once a week, and we check the equipment daily," he said.
Porter takes the tunnel system in stride. "The tunnels are probably not all that unique," he said. "Most cities have a network of steam tunnels that you can't see."

In many ways it was a slap in the face, a sort of you're-not-important-enough-forme-to-do-it-the type of message.
Kansas forward, excuse me, former forward Paul Pierce declared himself eligible for the NBA draft last night.
But without showing the institution he played for, or the fans that supported him, or the school that gave him a free education any respect, he made his announcement at his former high school in Los Angeles.
It was odd.
He can spout a lot of reasons for making the decision from so far away. In his
defense, he was in Los Angeles for a banquet
Angeles for a banquet.
But that is no excuse.
The world could have waited for him to return on Monday and announce the decision on campus.
And yes, his family does live in Los Angeles.
But truthfully, the only member of his family he really wanted to be there was his mother. She had
Ivan
flown to a few games this season. There is no reason she couldn't make one more trip.

Maybe he was scared of the response and reaction. Maybe he did not want to answer local reporters' questions. Maybe he got some bad advice. Maybe he just did not care or maybe he thought it was important to do it in his hometown.
You would have thought coach Roy Williams would have advised him better.
When Pierce made his decision, because he was in Los Angles, few actually showed for the event.
Los Angeles radio stations and newspapers did not think it was important enough. The Los Angeles Times, the paper that covered him in high school, did not even send a reporter.
And none of the local media in this area was able to attend, because Pierce did not announce the press conference until less than 24 hours before it happened.
Pierce should have known better.
It was odd. It did not make any sense.
Since last season began, people have waited for this decision and Pierce owed it to the thousands of Kansas fans who wore his shirts, cheered his name and made signs with his on them, to announce his decision in Lawrence.
Not announcing his decision here was disrespectful. It said to Kansas fans that Pierce did not deem the University important enough to make the biggest decision of his life and one that will impact his teammates, at the same place that supported him for three years.
Few would fault Pierce for leaving early. When millions of dollars are just around the corner, you make the turn.
Duncan is a Topeka senior in journalism.
It was a good decision, and no one should fault him for it.
Sure, if he had stayed one more year he would have developed his three point shot, gotten stronger and improved his defense. But after watching Jacque Vaughn and Raef Lafrentz stick around only to get injured, Pierce had to wonder if the same would happen to him.
Besides, the past few seasons Pierce has been on two teams that were arguably the best of the Roy Williams era. Next season was going to be tougher and although Kansas will be in contention for a national title, it is unlikely that there would have been a "Paul and the Miracles."
But it will take a long time for people to forgive you for making your decision more than 1,500 miles away.
So Paul, there shouldn't be any hard feelings.
There was no reason to stick around. You can say he should have finished his education, but let's face it: When you can make $2 million to $3 million a year, an education can be put on hold.
You owed it to the fans to end your college career at the same place you started it.
Pierce leaves early for NBA
Forward expected to be top-five pick
By Tommy Gallagher

Kansas sportswriter
Kansas fans' chants of "one more year" could barely be heard by former Kansas forward Paul Pierce in Los Angeles.
Pierce said yesterday at Inglewood High School he would forego his senior season at Kansas and would enter the NBA Draft, where he is expected to be a top-five selection in June.
Pierce was in Los Angeles for the John Wooden Award ceremonies tonight with coach Roy Williams and teammate Raef LeFrentz.
NBA, and hopefully this is a good opportunity for me," Pierce told The Associated Press. "I feel like it' my time. I feel like I'm more than ready."
Pierce is the first player in the Williams' era to leave school early for the riches of the NBA.
"It has always been my dream to play in the
---
Williams, who introduced Pierce at the press conference. said
Pierce: announced NBA plans from high school gym.
March 18 he wanted Pierce to do what felt right for him.
"I don't think there's any question that Paul would be a very high draft pick," Williams said. "The NBA is very interested in him.
"I told him to be as selfish as he can be,"he
said. "I most definitely don't want him thinking he has to stay another year just to help old Rov win a championship."
On Senior Night, Pierce played as if he knew that it was his last game in Allen Field House.
Pierce scored a game-high 31 points against Oklahoma off of 14-for-17 shooting from the floor, including 3-for-3 from behind the three-point line.
He scored 15 points on six consecutive possessions in the second half, shooting 6-for-6 during that stretch. The outburst prompted Sooners coach Kelvin Sampson to walk onto the court and pat him on the behind as Sampson called timeout after the sixth shot.
Pierce said he would like to have made the Final Four, but added he would leave Kansas with no regrets.
"Being in the Final Four always was a dream of mine growing up, and I was unable to fulfill that dream," Pierce said. "But I feel like I had a great college career and won a lot
of games."
Pierce, a 6-foot-7 swingman, averaged 20.3 points and 6.8 rebounds per game last season. He shot 51 percent from the field and scored in double figures in 51 consecutive games.
Pierce earned first team All-American honors last month and was the Most Outstanding Player of the Big 12 Conference Tournament the past two seasons. He led the Jayhawks in scoring in the 10 of the past 11 postseason games.
Forward T.J. Pugh, who came to Kansas with Pierce three years ago, said he could not fault the logic behind the decision.
"I agree with what he did," Pugh said. "I think you definitely have to support him. I don't think I could find anybody who would tell me that they wouldn't take a job like that with a year left in college if they got offered a position."
Pierce's mother, Lorraine Hosey, had said she hoped Pierce would stay at Kansas and graduate before entering the NBA. He assured his mother he eventually would earn a college degree.

Freshman phenomenon leads team in batting

By John Blakely Wilson Kansan sportswriter
Freshman shortstop John Nelson rocketed a line-drive fast ball 400 feet deep into the pine trees beyond the left-center-field fence at Hoglund-Maupin Stadium to lead-off a Kansas victory against Baker on Wednesday. His thin, 6-foot-1 body jogged around the bases with his head down — without ego.
Nelson has played the game for the Jay-
hawks all season at a high level without
attitude. Nelson is a star athlete
playing without shaking fists
or a slow trots out to the
field.
"I look to the
"I look to the older players to
show me how
to play," Nelson
said. "I just try to focus on
every pitch and play as hard as
I possibly can without worrying
about anything else."
Nelson was recruited last spring to follow in the footsteps of 1998 Big 12 Conference batting champion Joe DeMarco. Nelson has eclipsed all expectations both at the plate and in the field. He leads the team in batting average at .389, is tied for third on the team with three home runs and has driven in 20 runs with just five errors in the field.
"Joe hit 429 last year, and John's only hitting a little under. 400. We expect more out of him," head coach Bobby Randall joked. "Really, we've given him the lead-off spot in the order because he has been on base consistently. That has led to us scoring a lot of
runs."
Nelson was drafted in the 40th round of the 1997 amateur draft by the Los Angeles Dodgers, and according to Randall, would have gone higher if not for a recurring ligament problem in his thumb throughout high school. The injury limited his at bats throughout his junior and senior seasons and finally required surgery last winter.
("Assistant coach) Mike Bard knew about John and knew he was talented but had been slowed by injuries." Randall said. "Obviously, if he was drafted a lot of people knew about him, but I also don't think anyone knew he would play this well."
Several tradition-rich schools also recruited Nelson out of high school in Denton, Texas, but he signed with Kansas with an eye on the future. Also on Nelson's list were 1997 NCAA Tournament qualifiers and Big 12 opponents Texas and Baylor.
"All of the coaches here really showed that
All of the coaches here really smoothed that they cared and that they are good. God, please make it mild. "I also didn't want to sit on the bench. You only get better by playing."
Nelson has played beyond his years, both at the plate and on the field. He combines average range in the middle infield with an unusually strong arm.
"I've never had the quickest feet, but I'm pretty confident in my ability to throw the ball," Nelson said. "I've become a much better hitter by learning from the coaches on how to hit to all fields."
The Jayhawks travel to Waco, Texas, this weekend to play the Baylor Bears in a three-game Big 12 series. Baylor (26-7-1 overall and 10-3 in the Big 12) is ranked as high as ninth nationally in several different polls.
Spring practice spent getting reacquainted
The second day of spring practice was much like the first for the Kansas football team.
Coach Terry Allen said players ran through non-contact drills and became reacquainted with one another on another beautiful day.
"Since we're practicing without the pads on, we're mainly working on our assignments," Allen said. "We're relearning what we already know and installing some new stuff."
Running backs scurried through holes during mock offensive plays, and quarterbacks Zac Wegner and Akili Roberson fired spirals to wideouts and connected with tight ends on timing patterns.
The lineman plodded in the trenches and the defensive backs reviewed cover drills as the Jayhawks prepared for Allen's second season at Kansas.
Allen said this weekend would offer a slight
change of pace, when about 200 Kansas high school football coaches will attend the Jayhawks' practice.
The coaches' clinic is scheduled for today and tomorrow with a full-pads practice highlighting the weekend. Although the players will not be tackling tomorrow, it will be the first chance for the Jayhawks to strap on all of their pads and prepare for their first scrimmage April 11.
Allen said until then the Jayhawks would focus on the basics.
"There will be no position changes this week because we can't tell that much until we get the pads on," Allen said. "Right now we're just learning content."

owner Marge Schott was out of bed yesterday and starting therapy a day after surgery for her fractured hip.
Doctors said the 69-year-old owner was in good condition and would remain in Jewish Hospital Kenwood through the weekend.
Schott slipped and fell in the driveway of her suburban home hours after the Reds' season opener Tuesday.
"They're getting her into a chair, which is the first step in her physical therapy," hospital spokeswoman Erika Taylor said.
Michael Swank, surgeon, said he installed a plate and five screws to join the hip during the 30-minute operation. Schott's first day of therapy involved limited movement around her room with the aid of physical therapists.
弓
Most people who undergo hip repair similar to Schott's reach 80 percent recovery in about six weeks, although complete healing can take three months or longer, Swank said.
Schott had participated in traditional festivities Tuesday, including a parade that marked the opening season of baseball in Cincinnati.
Schott, who owns a Cincinnati auto dealership and other businesses and property, has had a controlling interest in the Reds since 1984. But she has been banned from running the team through this season for offensive remarks she made about minorities in 1996.

In 1996, Schott spent a week at a Jewish Hospital to treat pneumonia. In 1991, she was in the hospital for two weeks for a bacterial skin infection that doctors said could have killed her.

IOWA CITY, Iowa — Iowa coach Tom Davis, whose team missed the NCAA tournament and then made a quick exit from the NIT, said today he would retire after next season.
lowa basketball coach to retire next season
The Associated Press
Just last week, Davis said he planned to return for the 1998- 99 season, the final year of his 10-year contract, but athletic director Bob Bowlsby had been silent on the matter.
Davis, who appeared at a news conference with Bowlsby, said he had considered resigning. But he said the extra year would give certain members of his staff an extra year to figure out what to do.
"I couldn't be more positive about the state of the program," he said. "I was very upset with the criticism of how we were doing."
Davis is 249-130 during his 12 seasons with Iowa, including 2011 this season. But eight conference losses, including a first-round loss to Michigan in the conference tournament, and a weak non-conference schedule kept the Hawkeyes from the NCAA tournament for the first time in three years.

Rowers aim to paddle competition
Women's team hopes to sail past Iowa this weekend
By Kory Burke
Kansan sportswriter
After a grueling week of practice during spring break, the women's rowing team is ready to see what it's made of.
The women, who spent their break practicing two and three times a day on the Caine River in Natchitoches, La., have their first regatta this weekend at Iowa. Kansas faces stiff competition from Iowa and Drake.
Allie Hickman, Omaha freshman, is confident about the team's chances.
"I'm really psyched with this being our first regatta," she said. "We raced Iowa's course during the season last semester, so I think we will be competitive."
Hickman said the team was focusing more on Iowa than Drake.
"We beat Drake and took first place at the Indoor Rowing Championship in February, but Iowa is a much stronger team." she said.
Assistant Coach Heather Galvin looks at Iowa as a stepping stone to a greater goal, the postseason races.
"Iowa is traditionally a tough team," she said. "But a win against Iowa would really help our chances with getting a bid to the NCAA's. What we really want to do is build upon our results from our dual with the University of Tulsa."
After all the hard work they have put forth during the offseason, the women think they are in control of

their success. However, Tuesday afternoon made them realize there is a higher power, Mother Nature. When freezing rain began pouring during practice, coach Rob Catloth told them to take in their boats immediately. In the confusion of all the boats trying to dock at one time, one crashed into another, causing the bow to break off and the remainder of the boat to start sinking. Catloth was on the phone with in seconds to have it repaired.
But boats aren't needed for what the women's coaches say will make a solid and competitive team, said
Lettie Ebbs, Pittsburg junior.
"The main thing Rob has worked on is teamwork and unity in our boats, and right now everything is clicking together," she said.
The women aren't the only rowers at Kansas looking for a winning weekend. The Kansas Crew Club has its first regatta this weekend at the Kaw River. After staying in Lawrence for spring break to practice, the crew is ready to start its spring season. Wichita State and Kansas State are the first test.
Mike Vuocoole, Allenhurst, N.J. sophomore, said the rowers were using these races as a means to measure themselves.
"We haven't seen any competition yet, so everyone is excited for the race," he said. "We're not looking to blow anyone out of the water but rather find the areas in which we need to improve."
Women's golf seeks return to fall form
By Jason Pearce
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas women's golf team has not competed in a tournament since March 15, and the break has given the golfers a chance to improve their play.
On Sunday, the Jayhawks will head to St. George, Utah, where they will begin play Monday in the two-day Dixie Classic. They will attempt to improve on their last tournament in Austin, Texas, where they finished 12th out of 14 teams.
In that meet, the Jayhawks faced eight top 25 teams, including them No. 6 Furman and No. 12 North Carolina.
KU golf
Junior Mandy Munsch said the Jayhawks had not played as well as they would have liked this season but a lack of practice time contributed to their problems.
"I wasn't prepared enough, and it was probably the toughest competition we have played against this year," Munsch said.
During spring break, most of the team members traveled to Palm Springs, Calif., where they played on two resort courses.
"We had a lot of time to practice and improve our play," said Carrie Padden, Marvysville sophomore.
Munsch said the trip gave the team more confidence than it had earlier in the season.
Padden said she hoped team members would be more competitive in Utah and return to their scores from
the fall season
"Last semester, we turned in the best scores of KU's golf history," Padden said. "This semester, we just haven't had enough time to practice and get into the groove." Padden said she hoped things
Padden said she hoped things would come together in Utah.
Kansas only has two more tournaments before the Big 12 Championship, which will be played April 27-28 in Norma, Okla.
"We have a good chance of placing in the top five at the championship," Munsch said.

Tennis teams seek weekend wins
By Erin Thompson Kanson sportswriter
The men's tennis team recovered from being smothered by Tulsa on Wednesday and came back to defeat Missouri 7-0 yesterday at Robinson Center.
"We bounced back," Kansas coach Mark Riley said. "After yesterday, there was no where to but up. That was the worst performance I had ever seen."
Kansas had no problems putting Missouri away and defeated the Tigers for the fourth straight time.
Riley saw the match as an opportunity to play some players who have not seen a lot of action this season.
Micah Zomer, Tulsa freshman, defeated B.J. Bates (6-1, 6-0) in No.5 singles.
"I think it's good to give people who haven't had the opportunities that the top guys have to play in pressure situations," Zomer said. "It's good to do something instead of just practice."
Trent Tucker went to three sets with Rob Silver in the closest match for the Jayhawks before winning 2-6, 3-2, 6-2.
The match included several questionable calls, and the two players argued calls throughout the match. Tucker was down a set, and the second set was tied to two games apiece when a call by Silver gave Tucker the fire he needed to fight back.
"That was actually a turning point — when he cheated me on a call," he said. "I was finished. He
had beaten me emotionally. After that, I was fired up. That was a big motivating factor."
Tucker improved his singles record to 23-9.
Missouri has no scholarships for tennis and probably will cut its program next year, Riley said. Despite this, he said he was always impressed by how hard Missouri played.
Zomer said he thought the Jayhawks played well.
"We came out and took care of business," Zomer said. "We were the favored team, and we respected them, but we played hard and won."
Kansas improved to 3-1 in the Big
12 Conference and 9-9 overall. This is
the first time this season the Jayhawks have had a record above .500.
The Jayhawks will next see action when they travel to Colorado tomorrow.
The altitude in Boulder has proven to be a challenge for the Jayahawks in the past, and this year will be no different. Tucker said.
Riley said with his team's inconsistency and injuries, the match could be tough.
"I hope my good team shows up," Riley said. "They've beaten some good people. We need to come out and do a good job."
n The Kansas men's tennis program will receive a $1,000 scholarship in senior Enrique Abaroa's name because he received the sportsmanship award at the Blue/Gray Tournament March 19-21 in Montgomery, Ala.

The women's tennis team is looking to stretch a six-match winning streak to eight before the weekend ends.
The No. 15 Jayhawks will play Oklahoma State tomorrow and Oklahoma on Sunday at the Robinson Center tennis courts. It will be the outdoor home opener for the Jayhawks.
The team is 4-0 in the Big 12 Conference, and after this weekend, it will likely be 6-0. Oklahoma State is 2-13 and 0-5 in the Big 12, and Oklahoma is 11-6 overall and 2-4 in conference play.

The Jayhawks won against then-No. 14 Pepperdine and No. 22 Southern California during spring break. On Wednesday, the Jayhawks defeated Kansas State 8-1 in Manhattan.
March was kind to the Jayhawks, who went 6-1 during the month. Their only loss was to Brigham Young, which is ranked in the top five.
The Jayhawks' only other loss this season came at the hands of Duke, which also is ranked in the top five. Kansas is expected to be in the top 10 when the new rankings are released Tuesday.
Doubles
Kansas coach Roland Thornqvist said the Jayhawks hoped to remain undefeated in conference play through the Texas match on April 19. The Longhorns are ranked ninth.
"We have won half of the singles in all our matches this year, which means that even in our losses, we were in it up to doubles," he said. "That's a very impressive accomplishment. We are playing some of our best tennis of the year and could easily be 18-2 heading into Texas."

Frisbee fans flock to Fool's Fest
Lawrence tourney to feature nation's best Ultimate teams
By Tim Harrington tharrington@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
They start with a mile or so warm-up run. Then about an hour and half of drills, practicing set plays, learning the offenses and defenses. They scrimmage until the daylight runs out and wrap up practice with a variety of stomachwrenching wind sprints.
They do this five times a week.
They play frisbee ... Ultimate
Frisbee.
They do this five times a week
And they represent the University of Kansas in tournaments across the county.
However, this weekend will be different. The Kansas Horror-Zontals don't have to fly to Santa Clara, Calif., or drive to New Orleans as they've done earlier this year.
This weekend is the 17th annual Fool's Fest, the tournament the Zontals play host to in Lawrence.
Between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. tomorrow and Sunday at the fields at 23rd and Iowa streets and next to Robinson Center, 20 men's teams and 10 women's teams will do disc-battle until one of each group has taken a title.
Steve Chaitin, Chicago senior and Zontals captain, is optimistic about
having the home-field advantage.
"We can win it," he said. "If we play to our potential we could win the tournament, but we have yet to play to our potential."
It would be an upset if the Kansas team did win. The Zontals are a seventh seed in their bracket, and the competition will be fierce.
Among the 20 men's teams competing are some of the strongest in the country. Colorado University's Mama Bird is ranked second in the country in the Ultimate Players Association power-rating system of the roughly 150 registered teams across the country.
Other traditional powerhouses in attendance will be Carleton College, the University of Wisconsin and the Boulder, Co., club team, the Spice Boys.
The Zontals are especially looking forward to meeting the Carleton College team, which is in their pool. A regular at the nationals tournament, Carleton beat the Zontals 13-10 in the Eastern Conference tournament during spring break.
"We'd really like to put the hurt on 'em," said Dave Bruchmann, Barrington, Ill., senior and second-year Zontal. "There are certain teams that the Zontals like to turn it up for. Carleton is one of them."
In 1995, when Chaitin was a rookie Zontal, the Kansas team was the powerhouse. The team held a brief No. 1 ranking in the country but missed being one of the 12
In '96 and '97 the Zontal roster dwindled to 13 players, and it reflected in their ranking.
teams invited to the national tournament by one game.
"You could say that last year was a rebuilding year," Chaitin said.
"The past few years the Zontals kind lost their edge. But this year we have the best chance to make nationals in two or three years."
"This is the most promising group of rookies that I've ever seen," he said. "They're tall, athletic and they play with heart and pride."
The Zontals' roster is up to 23, and the team's ranking is in the low 30s. Chaitin said the rejuvenation was because of a core of seasoned veterans and a group of over-achieving rookies.
Chaitin hopes he and his rookies will be in Minneapolis, Minn., in May for the national tournament. The world Ultimate Frisbee tournament also will be held in Minneapolis in August.
It will be a big step for the 30-year-old sport, whose players are as dedicated and die-hard as any other sports'.
See What Spring has in Store for You
Ultimate Frisbee also will make its debut as a medal sport in the 2001 World Games in Japan.
"It goes God, family, school, Ultimate," Chaitin said.
Bruchmann disagrees only slightly.
"Ultimate,family,and more Ultimate," he said.

Baylor leads Big 12; South rules spring
The Associated Press
LUBBOCK, Texas — The Baylor Bears are exactly where coach Steve Smith hoped they'd be a year ago.
"I thought we were pretty tal-ented (in 1997), but no b o d y
BIO II INTERCH
really knew it," Smith said of his Big 12 Conference leaders. "Our problem last year was we stumbled too many places along the way in places we should have won. We had seven one-run losses last year."
Not that last season was a disaster — the Bears finished fourth at 18-12 in league play. But Smith expected more, which is exactly what he's
getting now,
as the season's halfway
m a r k approaches.
He's got the league's best

Charley
BU
Carter, who's hitting. 490 with six homers in conference play to help Baylor (26-7, 10-3) stay a step ahead of Texas A&M (27-10, 15-5).
The Bears also might have the Big 12's most valuable player in Jason Jennings. Jennings is hitting .408 with 20 RBIs, and he's 5-0 with a 3.49 ERA on the mound, where he has struck out 35 Big 12 batteries in 38 2/3 outcourt.
If the season were to end today — "I wish it would," Smith quipped the second Big 12 tournament would look like the first, featuring Baylor, Texas A&M, Missouri (21-6, 6-2), Oklahoma (22-7, 6-4), Texas Tech (23-11, 6-5) and Oklahoma State (19-10, 5-5).
Except for Texas (13-17, 1-7), which has struggled during second-year coach Augie Garrido's youth movement, the also-rans come from the North. They are Kansas (16-13, 3-6), Kansas State (11-15, 3-7), Iowa State (7-13, 2-5) and Nebraska (12-10, 0-3).
Colorado does not play baseball.
Weather has been particularly devilish for Big 12 teams this season, especially those in the North. Nebraska has played just three league games, and postonements
have been a conferencewide problem.
A&M coach Mark Johnson admits that teams north of Oka.

someplace only because of weather." Johnson said. Johnson credits the comeback of pitcher Ryan Runge for the
Aggies' success so far. Rupe, who recovered from a blood clot operation, is 7-1 overall with a 2.09 ERA.
"He hasn't lost any velocity," said Johnson of the Aggies' two-time national player of the week. "He can stay out there and keep bringing it. He's had some games where he's flat-out dominated some pretty good offensive teams."
Speaking of good offensive teams, Oklahoma's bats have kept the Sooners in the hunt. They're averaging 12 runs a game, largely thanks to Casey Bookout's 15 home runs and 35 RBIs through last week, second only to Carter's 45.
Missouri pitcher Jay Bell has been dominant for the Tigers. Heading into this week, the Canadian senior had allowed just one earned run in a 31 2/3-inning stretch, including a 6-0 shutout in a non-conference game with Kansas two weeks ago.
Shane Wright has fared similarly for Tech. He owns a 6-1 record and 2.71 ERA.
Texas basketball coach to resign amid debate
Controversies regard released student records

"An agree upon settlement is the best way to go," the source said. "Tom goes out as the winningest coach in Texas history and pain stops going
ing university source.
The university scheduled a news conference for late afternoon.
The news conference follows nearly a month of controversy surrounding the Longhorn basketball program.
University officials have been conducting an investigation during the past two weeks into the release of basketball player Luke Astell's academic progress report to a radio station.
An assistant coach said he released the report the day after Penders suspended Axell for academic reasons.
Before that, Axtell and three other players had met with athletic director DeLoss Dodds to voice complaints about the program and Penders. Two of those players, Axtell and Gabe Muoneke, have said they intend to transfer.
Backup point guard Anthony Goode said before the end of the season he also plans to leave.
Dodds and Patricia Ohlendorf, the vice provost and Texas counsel to the president, were to announce the findings at yesterday's news conference.
PETER WILLIAMS
Penders; to resign as head basketball coach at Texas.
"I think Tom and the university are doing the right thing. It will be a new start for the program, and I'm sure Tom will land on his feet very quickly."
Penders, who had a record of 208-110 at
Ates, averaged nearly 21 wins and
took the Longhorns to the NCAA
Tournament eight times in 10 seasons. He had four years remaining on a contract that pays him $550,000 per year.
The school investigated whether Penders had any involvement in Axtell's mid-semester grades being faxed to Austin radio station KVET-AM.
The unauthorized release would have violated the Buckley Amendment that protects the privacy of students' academic information.
After his suspension, Axtell then went public with his complaints and said his grades were not so bad he could not make them up.
Penders said he would accept reassignment but would sue if the university tried to fire him without paying him.
Another high-ranking university source said that Penders began falling out of favor with the school's administration last year, when he courteed the head coaching job at Rutgers.
Colorado linebacker leads team

shirt, but were actually thrown in there right away."
Every one of the five was an inside linebacker, and all were asked to take on leadership roles.
Cabral estimated Gregorak's progress put him on the same track as Johnson, a starting linebacker for the New England Patriots.
"What separates Gregorak is that he is being asked to accept it earlier than most of the others," Colorado linebacker coach Brian Cabral said. "Of the five, only Gregorak and Johnson didn't come in and red-
"At times I've been taken aback this spring when other players ask me what play is being run, but it's something that comes with leadership," Gregorak said. "I like what is being asked of me, and I accept the challenge."
Cabral said, "He is in a unique situation. We don't normally ask this much of a young player, but then it has been awhile since we've had a player come right in as a freshman and contribute the way he has."
nom.
Considered bright and a quick learner by the Colorado coaching staff, Gregorak was the beneficiary of advice from another nationally known freshman linebacker phe-
"I made one of my visits to Ohio State on the week of their game with Michigan and met with Andy Katzenmoyer," Gregorak said. "We didn't talk long, but he left me with the impression I could come in to Colorado and play right away as a freshman."
Although he didn't have the impact Katzenmoyer had as a freshman at Ohio State, Gregorak saw considerable playing time. He played in all 11 games and started the final three against Iowa State, Kansas State and Nebraska.
"He came here with the intent of wanting to play as a freshman and with the desire to learn and prepare himself to play," Cabral said. "What differentiated him from other freshmen is he came in physically capable of playing with all the physical tools as a freshman."
"I like what is being asked of me, and I accept the challenge."
Ty Gregorak
Colorado linebacker
There was no intimidation factor for Cabral to be worried about. For example, it was not the 106,474 fans at Michigan Stadium that concerned Gregorak.
"I loved the atmosphere and the challenge of playing a team that would eventually share the national championship," Gregorak said about the 23-7 loss to the Wolverines.
There is not even the concern on improving his individual statistics, which include 38 total tackles and a forced fumble.

NORFOLK, Va. — One of four NBA referees convicted in an airline ticket scam was sentenced to three years of probation yesterday for tax evasion.
Henry Clinger Armstrong, an NBA official for nine years, received a reduced sentence after a judge granted a request by the prosecutors.
Jim Metcalfe, an assistant U.S. attorney, called Armstrong a respected community member with momentary greed.
Armstrong, 55, Virginia Beach, Va. apologized to his family and friends
NBA
before he was sentenced and told the judge:
"I just made a terrible mistake, and I will do whatever I have to do to right this ship."
He admitted he swapped first-class airline tickets supplied by the NBA for cheaper tickets and pocketed the difference. He did not report on his taxes $160,464 in income from downgrading the tickets from 1989 through 1994, prosecutors said.
actions, and his cooperation with authorities helped convict at least one NBA referee, Michael Mathis, Metcalfe said.
10. District Court Judge Henry Morgan Jr.first sentenced Armstrong to five months in prison and five months of home confinement.
But Armstrong took responsibility for his
Morgan said he took into consideration testimony by three friends who characterized Armstrong as a role model and a family man who took special care of his mentally retarded daughter.
or standard SECs the tax charges.
Armstrong pleaded guilty to one count of filing a federal tax return for 1993. That year he failed to report $30,809. Metcalfe said.
Armstrong declined to comment after the sentencing. His lawyer, Franklin Swartz, said there was never a mention of scandal before the tax charges
Kelly pleads ignorance in court
Armstrong resigned from the NBA after his plea. He was indicted in 1997 along with fellow referees Mathis, George Toliver and Jess Kersey, who also pleaded guilty in an investigation of travel expenses and resigned. The indictments stemmed from a two-year Internal Revenue Service investigation.
CONCORD, N.H. — Former Buffalo Bills quarterback Jim Kelly testified yesterday his agent rarely gave him information about how his money was being invested.
The Associated Press
"I trusted these guys," Kelly said. "I was young. I had lots of money. ... I hoped they would take care of my money because I was taking care of my future."
Kelly is defending against libel charges brought by his former agent, A.J. Faigin, who sued about Kelly's autobiography, *Armed and Dangerous*, which said Faigin mismanaged the quarterback's money.
Faigin, who seeks an undisclosed sum in the suit, contended he lost more than $1 million in business because of the book.
Faigin's lawyer, Alan Mandel.
showed Kelly several documents that contained the player's signature. He asked how Kelly could know so little
about his investments if he had received and signed the papers.
"They sent me so many documents where they sent me only the signature page," Kelly said. "If it has my signature, it doesn't mean I received the prospectus."
Kelly said he hired Lustig Pro Sports to take care of his investments. Faigin, who negotiated Kelly's contract with the Bills, was an officer in the company.
In earlier testimony, Kelly said he did not recall speaking with Faigin about investments and seldom read what little material he received about them.
Faigin testified he did not handle Kelly's investments and left Lustig Pro Sports because he was unhappy with how it did business. He said he negotiated excellent contracts for Kelly, including one with the Bills in 1986 for $8.5 million.
Yesterday, Kelly said he was unaware Faigin and other Lustig Pro Sports associates had conflicts of interest involving several of the companies in which the player's money was invested.
Kelly's lawyer, Steve Gordon, has said Kelly's statements were not libelous because the player believed what he wrote and Faigin knew about the alleged mismanagement of the player's money.
The trial, in its third week, is being heard in New Hampshire, which gives people a longer time to file libel suits than most states.

Lawrence band reunites for final show
By Chris Horton
horton@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Dan Pound-Vocals Guitar
Like a phoenix rising from ashes, the local band Vitreous Humor is reuniting for what will likely be its final Lawrence performance. The band will play tonight with Cursive and Suffer Huey
at the Replay Lounge. 946 Massachusetts St.
*The band will play tonight
  with Cursive and Suffer Huge
The band, which dissolved in 1996, had an almost 10-year history that dated back to when three of its four members began playing together in junior high.
Dan Pound, vocalist and guitarist, said the original incarnation of Vitreous Humor, which also included Dan Benson, drums, and Brad Allen, guitar, was nothing more than a cover band.
"Brad, Dan and I were in junior high in Topeka," Pound said. "We'd pick songs from a Beatles song book — that was Vitreous Humor for a while."
When the band started playing its own music it still hadn't attained the sound Pound desired.
"We were playing some wimpy rock, we had things like an acoustic guitar and a vio-

"Once Brooks joined us, all of our songs became twice as fast,"
Dan Benson
It was about 1994 when the band started to develop its heavier sound while playing numerous shows in Manhattan, he said.
At that time, Benson was taking classes at the University, where he met Brooks Rice, Kansas City, Mo. senior, who joined the band as its bass player, a position that had seen several temporary fill-ins. Pound said.
"Once Brooks joined us, all of our songs became twice as fast," he

"I think Vitreous is very respected in the music community," Matlow said. "They're really, really talented, and they play for themselves."

The EP, along with a show at the South-by Southwest Music Showcase in Austin Texas, prompted music labels including Elektra and Madonna's Maverick Records to court the band, Pound said.
But Vitreous Humor never signed to a major label.
"We were too cool." Pound said.
"We were 20 years old, and we were so cruel to those people," he said, "But it was cool for free dinners."
Around the time labels were trying to sign the band, internal tensions began to overcome the desire to play together.
Vitreous Humor had gone on several three and four-week tours, but the struggle between wanting to tour and attending the University eventually became too much.
Rice said.
"Brad and I still wanted to go to school, we couldn't tour all the time," Rice said, "Nobody ever quit the band, we just kind of stopped playing."
"It's mainly singles and live stuff we had collected." Rice said.
That was in March 1996. This March, the band released its first full-length album, a posthumous release appropriately titled posthumous.
"Dan Benson set up the show." Rice said, "I think it's just an excuse to play."
With the release of posthumous it seemed natural for the band to get together and play again, he said.
Pound said there were no hard feelings between the band members.
"I think we sound tighter now than

said, "It's

Home-grown group returns to town after two-year break

Kanson staff writer
Whatever you call it, Paw vocalist Mark Hennessy is happy to be home.
Call it a reunion. Call it a homecoming.
After a two year hiatus, Lawrence-bred band Paw will perform tomorrow at Liberty Hall, 642 Massachusetts St., with local bands Ultimate Fakebook and Cher U.K. Tickets are $10.59 and can be purchased at the Liberty Hall box office and all Ticketmaster locations.
Hennessy said he and the band took a two-year break when Hennessy went to New York. When he returned to Lawrence, he contacted the remaining band members about rehearsing together. The band
started playing together again in November and are working on a new album tentatively titled, Keep the Last Bullet for Yourself.
Hennessy said that despite the break, Paw had become a better band.
Paw's first major-label album, Dragline, gained national attention in 1994 and made the Billboard Top 100 list.
Jeff Fortier, promoter for Avalanche Productions, said Paw's success attracted national attention to the Lawrence music scene.
"It's odd how success is determined," he said. "It takes touring, time, patience and paying your
Hennessy said the success had not changed the band.
"What drove me to make music is a love of music, he said. "We never saw it as a way to become rich."
Hennessy said the band would mainly be playing songs from its Dragline and Death to Traitors albums. However, the band will introduce new songs.

Dole Center conference targets trade with China
By Brandon Copley
bcopley@kanson.com
Kanson staff writer
The University of Kansas' Robert J. Dole Center will conduct its first policy conference Wednesday when a group of experts discusses United States trade policy with China.
An afternoon program will feature a panel discussion at Alderson Auditorium in the Kansas Union. An evening debate at the Kansas Union Ballroom will focus on whether the United States should continue trade with China by extending Most Favored Nation status or terminate MFN status and cut off trade.
Burdett Loomis, the Dole Center's interim director, said he hoped the event would establish a Dole Center tradition of presenting important issues and the viewpoints surrounding them.
"One of the themes that we'd like to see resonate with the Dole Center is a discussion of the issues," Loomis said. "We're looking for serious subjects, with nuance, that clearly have two sides. In that regard, this is a good opening subject."
The China conference was suggested by third district Rep. Vince Snowbarger. He said that when Congress debated MFN status last year, many Kansans were unaware of the issue despite its effect on the state's economy.
"Let's face it, most of the public don't get concerned about foreign affairs until war enters the picture," he said. "Last year we got a lot of pressure from the business community and a lot of pressure from the religious community. But the great number of people are not aware of what MFN status is, much less how it affects business in the third district."
Religious groups were opposed to the extension of MFN status because of what Snowbarger called the Chinese government's abysmal record of religious persecution.
Snowbarger said he voted to extend MFN status last year because he believed that the best way to improve China's human rights record was to increase western influence on China through trade.
That view is similar to that of Terry Weidner, professor of Chinese politics, who will participate in the afternoon discussion Wednesday.
Weidner, an expert on Chinese policy who worked as a policy and media analyst in China from 1985 to 1991, also helped organize the conference. He said the goal was to include participants who had interesting ideas about U.S.-China relations and whose experience with China was more than academic.
The afternoon panel will include Clifford Edmunds, senior China analyst with the Foreign Broadcast Information Service; Robert Sutter of Congressional Research Service; Richard Bernstein of the New York Times and Christopher Symanski of the Artelv Group.
"These guys know what it's like on the ground level," he said.
The evening debate will feature Bernstein and Symanski with opening remarks by Snowbarger.
The Dole Center program has spawned a separate program with information on careers involving Chinese expertise. That event is scheduled for Wednesday morning at the Pine Room in the Kansas Union.
"You may be getting your degree in east-Asian studies, but you're not sure what to do for a career," she said. "There are jobs available for doing business with China, and I saw this as an opportunity to present information about those jobs."
Pat Weiss, outreach director for the Center for East Asian Studies, organized the morning program.

minefield
Orange fencing surrounds the site. The stairway between Budig and Malott now is little more than a pile of rubble with metal protruding in all directions. Bobcat bulldozers sit on a swath of exposed earth.
But it will not look this way for long. By Fall 1998, students and faculty will find the area redeveloped as the Malott Plaza and Memorial Garden.
The project is a memorial to Eleanor Malott, the wife of former University of Kansas Chancellor Deane W. Malott.
The plaza will run between Wescoe Hall and Anschutz Science Library and will be constructed of colored concrete, brick and limestone. A terrace on the south end of the plaza will overlook the Memorial Garden.
"It's going to be an exceptional addition to the campus," said Jeff Weinberg, assistant to the chancellor. "It will be a
wonderful place for quiet contemplation."
Malott encouraged the class of 1945 to use its class gift for purchasing and planting the 1,200 trees.
According to "Our Amazing Chancellors," a collection of essays on University history, Malott personally watered the trees to make sure they grew.
Eleanor Malott was involved with many of the campus landscaping projects that took place while her husband was chancellor from 1939 to 195, said Greg Wade, Design and Construction Management landscape architect.
"She was a big part of the initial planting of the crabapple trees that we have on campus, which are spectacular in the spring." Wade said.
In "The University of Kansas: A History," Clifford S. Griffin wrote that Malott and her allies were responsible for making the campus truly lovely. Griffin also wrote that Malott was
responsible for getting Lawrence citizens to donate plantings to the University.
In 1984, the KU Alumni Association awarded Malott the Ellsworth Medallion for her contributions to the University.
Malott died in January 1994. A combination of gifts from private donors, including the Malotts' son, Robert, as well as money from the University went to the construction of the plaza and garden, said John Scarffe, KU Endowment Association director of communications.
The Eleanor S. Malott Memorial Garden fund was established by friends and family of Deane W. Malott after his death in 1996, Scarfe said. The fund will pay for ongoing maintenance costs of the garden, he said.
The walkways around the south side of Budig Hall and Anschutz Science Library were designed for eventual integration with the plaza. Wade said.
Because there are several paths around the construction area, the redevelopment project should not inconvenience anyone significantly, he said.

About $2 million will be spent hiring the new faculty members, Frost Mason said. She said that $1 million came from renewable funds allotted for new hire each year and that the other $1 million was a one-time expenditure to cover start-up costs such as new equipment.
The College of Liberal Arts and Sciences has just finished its faculty recruiting season and hopes to fill 25 to 30 new positions for fall.
"The best thing we get to do is bring new colleagues to the University of Kansas," Frost Mason said. "It's an exciting opportunity for them and for us."
Sally Frost Mason, dean of liberal arts and sciences, said that at least 20 new faculty had signed contracts and that several others were pending.
Departments that have hired new faculty include African studies, English, economics, geography, political science, history, math, physics and theatre & film.
The college spends about $2,000 purchasing a new computer for each faculty member hired, Frost Mason said.

Dole Center conference targets trade with China
By Brandon Copple
bcopple@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
The University of Kansas' Robert J. Dole Center will conduct its first policy conference Wednesday when a group of experts discusses United States trade policy with China.
An afternoon program will feature a panel discussion at Alderson Auditorium in the Kansas Union. An evening debate at the Kansas Union Ballroom will focus on whether the United States should continue trade with China by extending Most Favored Nation status or terminate MFN status and cut off trade.
Burdett Loomis, the Dole Center's interim director, said he hoped the event would establish a Dole Center tradition of presenting important issues and the viewpoints surrounding them.
"One of the themes that we'd like to see resonate with the Dole Center is a discussion of the issues," Loomis said. "We're looking for serious subjects, with nuance, that clearly have two sides. In that regard, this is a good opening subject."
The China conference was suggested by third district Rep. Vince Snowbarger. He said that when Congress debated MFN status last year, many Kansans were unaware of the issue despite its effect on the state's economy.
Religious groups were opposed to the extension of MFN status because of what Snowbarger called the Chinese government's abysmal record of religious persecution.
"Let's face it, most of the public don't get concerned about foreign affairs until war enters the picture," he said. "Last year we got a lot of pressure from the business community and a lot of pressure from the religious community. But the great number of people are not aware of what MFN status is, much less how it affects business in the third district."
Snowbarger said he voted to extend MFN status last year because he believed that the best way to improve China's human rights record was to increase western influence on China through trade.
That view is similar to that of Terry Weidner, professor of Chinese politics, who will participate in the afternoon discussion Wednesday.
Wednard, an expert on Chinese policy who worked as a policy and media analyst in China from 1985 to 1991, also helped organize the conference. He said the goal was to include participants who had interesting ideas about U.S.-China relations and whose experience with China was more than academic.
The afternoon panel will include Clifford Edmunds, senior China analyst with the Foreign Broadcast Information Service; Robert Sutter of Congressional Research Service; Richard Bernstein of the New York Times and Christopher Symanski of the Artley Group.
"These guys know what it's like on the ground level." he said.
The evening debate will feature Bernstein and Symanski with opening remarks by Snowbarger.
The Dole Center program has spawned a separate program with information on careers involving Chinese expertise. That event is scheduled for Wednesday morning at the Pine Room in the Kansas Union.
Pat Weiss, outreach director for the Center for East Asian Studies, organized the morning program.
"You may be getting your degree in east-Asian studies, but you're not sure what to do for a career," she said. "There are jobs available for doing business with China, and I saw this as an opportunity to present information about those jobs."

The courtyard between Budig, Malott and Wescoe halls looks like a disaster area.
Orange fencing surrounds the site. The stairway between Budig and Malott now is little more than a pile of rubble with metal protruding in all directions. Bobcat bullozers sit on a swath of exposed earth.
But it will not look this way for long. By Fall 1998, students and faculty will find the area redeveloped as the Malott Plaza and Memorial Garden.
The project is a memorial to Eleanor Malott, the wife of former University of Kansas Chancellor Deane W. Malott.
The plaza will run between Wescoe Hall and Anschutz Science Library and will be constructed of colored concrete, brick and limestone. A terrace on the south end of the plaza will overlook the Memorial Garden.
"It's going to be an exceptional addition to the campus," said Jeff Weinberg, assistant to the chancellor. "It will be a
wonderful place for quiet contemplation."
Eleanor Malott was involved with many of the campus landscaping projects that took place while her husband was chancellor from 1939 to 195, said Greg Wade, Design and Construction Management landscape architect.
According to "Our Amazing Chancellors," a collection of essays on University history, Malott personally watered the trees to make sure they grew.
Malott encouraged the class of 1945 to use its class gift for purchasing and planting the 1,200 trees.
"She was a big part of the initial planting of the crabapple trees that we have on campus, which are spectacular in the spring," Wade said.
In "The University of Kansas: A History," Clifford S. Griffin wrote that Malott and her allies were responsible for making the campus truly lovely. Griffin also wrote that Malott was
responsible for getting Lawrence citizens to donate plantings to the University.
Malott died in January 1994. A combination of gifts from private donors, including the Malotts' son, Robert, as well as money from the University went to the construction of the plaza and garden, said John Scarffe, KU Endowment Association director of communications.
In 1984, the KU Alumni Association awarded Malott the Ellsworth Medallion for her contributions to the University.
The Eleanor S. Malott Memorial Garden fund was established by friends and family of Deane W. Malott after his death in 1996, Scarffe said. The fund will pay for ongoing maintenance costs of the garden, he said.
Because there are several paths around the construction area, the redevelopment project should not inconvenience anyone significantly, he said.
The walkways around the south side of Budig Hall and Anschutz Science Library were designed for eventual integration with the plaza, Wade said.

The towboat caught up with the riverboat and pushed it against the riverbank to prevent its other mooring from breaking in the current.
"Had the other end of the boat been knocked loose, it would have crashed into another bridge and it could have been worse than the Titanic in that we had 2,500 passengers on (the riverboat). "Fire Chief Stanley Newsome said.

ROME — Fans fled a soccer stadium in a small town and tourists hurried out of St. Francis Basilica in Assisi on Sunday when another sharp earthquake struck central Italy.

There were no reports of injuries or damage
The quake has a preliminary magnitude of 4.5, making it weaker than the 5.0 quake that jolted the region on Friday and damaged 300 homes. Friday's quake was the strongest in several months of aftershocks following two killer quakes in September.
Some 1,500 fans rushed from Gualdo,

hit Sunday just two minutes before the end
of a minor league match.
Sunday's quake did no apparent damage to the Assisi basilica, whose lower-level church was filled with Palm Sunday visitors. The basilica's upper-level has been closed
to the public since Sept. 26, when its ceiling collapsed during a quake.

College hires professors, seeks director
Continued from page 1A
One such candidate being sought is a director for the new indigenous nations studies program.
Although most new faculty are hired at the assistant professor level, Frost Mason said that there were several open positions which would require hiring tenured professors. Hiring tenured faculty is more complicated because they must be approved by the promotion and tenure committee, she said.
"What we're looking for here is someone who has already established themselves as a scholar and perhaps as an administrator," Frost Mason said. "It costs us a little more money, but also brings us a talent that is tried and true."
The search for new faculty is usually an eight to nine-month process, but it can take a few years to place distinguished professors, Frost Mason said. If the search to fill a position is unsuccessful, Frost Mason said that they would wait until the following year rather than settle for a second choice.
"We really want our departments to choose the very best people for these jobs," she said.
Frost Mason said that positions drew from 50 to several hundred applicants. Some positions in the math department have received up to 600 applications, she said.
"In certain disciplines, people from all over the world are applying for these jobs," she said.
the work are applying for these jobs, she said.
Frost Mason said that in the last ten years,
50 percent of the new faculty have been either women or minorities.
"We always place emphasis on trying to hire women and minorities." Frost Mason said.
Ron Francisco, chair of political science, said that his department had hired two new associate professors. Lorraine Bayard de Volo from the University of Michigan specializes in gender and politics and will teach classes in both political science and women's studies.
"It will not only benefit students in terms of courses but in the real world to show how governments can work to create economic growth." Francisco said.
Frost Mason said that hiring would be finalized by early May. The American Association of Universities recommends this deadline as a courtesy between schools so that fall schedules can be set.
"I think we'll easily hit the 25 to 30 mark before the year is out," Frost Mason said.

Panel to debate college admissions standards
An open debate addressing whether affirmative action belongs in higher education admissions will take place at 4:30 p.m. today in Green Hall.
Michael Greve, co-founder and executive director of the Center for Individual Rights, and Tom Stacy, professor of law, will discuss the pros and cons of racial-preference admission standards in college and graduate schools.
The debate, entitled "Hopwood and Beyond," in room 104, is sponsored by the Federalist Society. The event is free and open to the public.
"We're hoping that the debate gets to what the law should be and how we should regard it," said Joe Rotunda, firstyear law student and treasurer of the KU Federalist Society. Stacy will be presenting the opinion in favor of race-based affirmative action. Greve will be speaking against affirmative action in higher education admission.

King's death recalled by faculty,resident
Saturday marked the 30th anniversary of the death of one of America's most passionate voices of conscience. Late on the afternoon of April 4, 1968, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was killed by an assassin's bullet. As the news filtered out of Memphis to the rest of the nation, reactions ranged from
PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
King: assassinated in Memphis 30 years ago Saturday
shock to sorrow to rage.
Lawrence and the University of Kansas were affected no less than the rest of the nation.
William Tuttle, professor of history and American studies, remembers the day vividly.
"I left Lawrence the next day to
go to a three-day academic conference in Kansas City, so I can't say what happened here," Tuttle said. "But many of the professors I spoke with at the conference feared losing valuable research on campuses if students rioted and burned buildings."
Norman Yetman, professor of sociology and American Studies, said he recalled a sense of loss that day.
"I don't know how to describe it, Yetman said. "There was just this incredible disbelief.
"On one hand, there was a genuine sense of hope and exhilaration about the civil rights movement, but when King was killed it really took the wind out of the sails for many people."

Tip to Crime Stoppers prompts $200 award
The University of Kansas Crime
Stoppers Board has awarded an individual $200 for a telephone tip, said Officer James Anguiano.
The tip helped the KU Office of Public Safety identify three suspects in the March 8 pop-bottle explosion at McCollum Hall. A student staff member was treated at Lawrence Memorial Hospital for a minor injury that resulted from the explosion.
The three suspects, McColum Hall residents, told police they were experimenting in a room when they decided they needed to take the bottle outside. The residents placed the bottle in a stainwell because they thought it was about to explode, the public safety office said.
The staff member found the bottle in the stairwell at about 8:40 p.m. and took it to the front-desk area, where it exploded.
The incident report has been given to the Douglas County District Attorney's office to determine charges.
Anyone with information about a crime can call KU Crime Stoppers at 864-8888. The line is open 24 hours and anonymity is protected. Callers are eligible for a cash award if their information leads to a suspect's apprehension.

Members from Delta Upsilon executive boards are required by their international organization to gather at a chapter in their province every year. It has been at least 7 years since the seminar has been held at the University of Kansas, said Klaus Diem, Madison, Wis., sophomore and seminar coordinator.
Delta Upson fraternity hosted representatives from eight schools in its region for the three-day Delta Upson Regional Leadership Seminar.
Representatives came from the University of Texas at Arlington and at Houston, the University of Northern Colorado, University of Nebraska, University of Missouri, University of Oklahoma, Kansas State University and Wichita State University.
Fraternity holds talks on alcohol-free issues
On Friday, the members discussed issues such as risk management and recruiting. On Saturday they met in the morning to discuss alcohol-free housing.
Diem said that no decision has been made whether or not Delta Upsilon will become alcohol-free.
On Saturday afternoon the members headed to the University's Adams campus and bonded at the challenge course there.
Saturday night, they listened to Lewis Gregory, a Delta Upson and KU alumni, speak about leadership. Gregory works for Merrill Lynch Trust and was the first KU recipient of Delta Upson's outstanding member award.

Sorority raises $3,500 from annual benefit
The sorority raised $3,500 with the O'Twister Tournament on the front lawn of Allen Field House as the local radio station, 105.9 KLWN broadcast live.
Kappa Delta sorority held its 15th Annual Shamrock Project to benefit child abuse victims Saturday.
Eighty percent of the proceeds benefited Lawrence Women's Transitional Care Services. The other 20 percent went to the National Committee to Prevent Child Abuse.
All Kappa Delta chapters donate 20 percent of their philanthropy earnings to the National Committee to Prevent Child Abuse. The other 80 percent goes to a local organization of the chapter's choosing.
Most of the money came from tour nament sponsors, said Kera Leutung, Kansas City, Kan., senior and tournament organizer.
The sorority also raised funds by selling 250 t-shirts.
The winning team was from Phi Kappa Psi fraternity. They took home a television set and two pairs of sunglasses. The runner-ups were from Alpha Chi Omega sorority. They won watches and a spa package.
Attentive clerk spots counterfeit $20 bill
— Carl Kaminski
pursuit for lawsuits, Lawrence police said. Sgt. George Wheeler said the 28-year-old Lawrence resident also might be charged with passing counterfeit bills at other businesses.
A Lawrence man was arrested Thursday for using a counterfeit $20 bill to pay for gasoline. Lawrence police said,
"We may have linked him to some of the other fake $20 bills being passed around town," he said.
Wheeler said police arrested the man on Sixth Street just after using the fake bill at Westside 66 and Carwash, 2815 West Sixth St., to pay for $3 worth of gasoline.
Wheeler said that the clerk, a 24-year-old Lawrence resident, recognized the bill as counterfeit and called police when the man left the gas station.
"It didn't look like a real one at all," the clerk said. "It was cut very evenly; you could see the next bill on the edge above the one I was given. They used the wrong color of green, and there was pink and blue on it as well."
Wheeler said the clerk gave police the license of the man's vehicle, and he was spotted and arrested shortly after he left the gas station.
The man also may become a suspect in three other cases of counterfeit passions, Wheeler said. Fake $20 bills were used March 14 at Wendy's, 601 Kasold, and Auto Body Plus, 1245 North Third St. Fake bills also were used March 27 at Village Inn, 821 Iowa, Wheeler said.
vmeeler said the Topeka Police Department also had been investigating the recent passing of several fake $20 bills.
Wheeler said he did not know if the man would become a suspect in any of the Topeka passings.

Campus computer labs' policies for printing confuse students
Printing papers at KU computer labs can be confusing for students.
It is increasingly difficult for students to keep track of what each lab or center's cost policy is when it comes to printing.
There are a number of computer centers throughout campus, which is great for students without computers. But centers and labs have different policies concerning how much they charge for printing. This is confusing for students trying to keep track of each policy.
The computer lab in Budig Hall charges nothing. The catch is that students must bring their own paper.
The Computer Center has two policies.
If assignments are printed on dot matrix
The University of Kansas should create a guidebook to the KU computer labs
printers, it is free. If the assignment is printed on laser paper, then it is 10 cents per page.
On a side note, the Computer Center should be commended for recently lowering printing prices from 20 cents per page to 10 cents per page.
The lab in Snow Hall charges 10 cents per page and the lab in Stauffer-Flint
Hall does not charge at all. These labs are open only to students in certain schools
It is understandable that to pay for maintenance and ink, sometimes students need to pay a little out of their own pockets.
But something should be done to make it easier for students to keep track of the different cost policies.
A booklet should be put together outlining the different policies so the next time students choose a lab, they will know if they need their own paper or if they have enough money.
It would make life a little easier for everyone.

City Commission: Get on the bus
Lawrence gets bigger every day, but the City Commission is thinking small. As the city grows, many residents are left with few forms of transportation. The commission should create a citywide public busing system and look to Lawrence's future.
Developments continue to sprout up on the town's outskirts, pushing the boundaries in many directions. This growth makes it harder for people, especially those without cars, to get from one side of the town to the other. And there are few signs that this growth will slow.
Many Lawrence residents are finding themselves farther from the city's center and often with inadequate transportation. It is common for KU students, the elderly and low-income residents to not have vehicles. They all would benefit from a public bus system. Also, parents would not have to take their children every time the youngsters wanted to go somewhere —
The city should create a citywide public bus system to benefit KU students, Lawrence residents
children simply could hop on the bus.
Although the KU on Wheels busing system serves the University of Kansas and surrounding areas where many students live, it cannot meet the needs of all students or Lawrence residents. One solution would be to integrate the KU system with a citywide system, better serving the entire populace. This has been proven to work in other university cities. For example, the University of Illinois at Champaign-Urbana combined its busing system with these cities'. The result was a dramatic increase in ridership and a successful public transportation system.
There are many benefits to a citywide busing system. With it, fewer people would drive, thus lessening traffic and the emissions polluting the air. Safety may increase as fewer drunk drivers take to the streets and get on a bus instead. Downtown parking problems, which have become a concern of city officials and Lawrence residents, could be alleviated as fewer people drive to get downtown.
Taxpayers may have to pay for this system, but federal support can and should be sought to reduce the financial burden. In the long run, when the city has grown larger than anyone now can imagine, Lawrence residents and KU students will be thankful that the commission had the foresight to create a public busing system.
Readers should write their city commissioners and go to commission meetings. They should demand that the commission implement a citywide public busing system, serve its constituents, and look to the future.

Perspective
I discovered last week that Roy Williams is beginning a new career. I realize that discussion of Coach Williams (or Roy, as unrecognized alumnus with wife)
Williams in the movies: That's as good as it gets
unrecruited players call him) generally takes place on the sports page
Clay McCuistion opinion © kansan.com
But this new occupation isn't directly connected to sports, so I thought I'd bring it to the attention of opinion page readers.
Roy Williams is going into the movie business.
We've always known he's photogenic. After all, his stylish gray hair and well-cut suits make him easy to watch as he pauses to and fro on the sidelines. Easier to watch, at least, than the coaches who are constantly on the brink of major strokes during games.
PETER GRAVEY
Being stylish doesn't automatically lead to a film career, though. What Roy Williams needed to break into the industry was a director crazy about basketball. Someone like...oh..Spike Lee.
The new Spike Lee movie He Got Game, starring Denzel Washington and Milla Jovovich, features a cameo appearance by Williams. The film won't be released until May 1, but I caught a preview of it last week before I saw Primary Colors. In the preview, Williams is part of a quick-cut succession of college coaches telling the film's hero, an avidly sought high school recruit, that deciding on a college basketball program is the most important decision of his life. Frankly, I don't know if the coach is actually in the movie, or just an eye-catching image selected for the preview. Either way, he's obviously made inroads into an acting career.
For Williams's consideration, therefore, I'd like to suggest some other movies in which he could appear, based on four of the movies that were nominated for best picture at the Academy Awards this year.
Roy captains the immense, well-crafted ship that has absolutely no possibility of sinking. No, not ever. Not possibly. The ship, according to Coach
Kim Bassinger and Williams heat up the screen as competing basketball coaches at a midwestern university. Sensationalistic news outlets give all their attention to the men's team, while the women struggle diligently in the background. Once the men's coach and his players are grusomely murdered, though, Kim takes the women's team to the Sweet 16, giggling all the way. It is later revealed through a series of convoluted and bewildering flashbacks that Bassinger hired a hit man (named, say, "Rhodes") to wachk Williams and the boys.
Good Player Hunting
Titanic
Williams, should complete all of its voyages successfully. However, totally surprising everyone, the ship hits a huge iceberg — nicknamed "Rhode Island" — and sinks, missing a lot of easy three-pointers along the way. Worth catching for the Coach's tearful performance and Rae LaFrentz's romance with a slightly chubby Kate Winslet.
Williams' character is thrown out of the school after the player informs the almighty governing body, and the poor recruiter ends up living on Massachusetts Street. All he can mutter, as he surveys the barren wasteland of his life and sips from his bottle of malt liquor, is: "My name is Mork. Where's Mindy?"
KU Confidential
As Good As It Gets
Roy, wearing a bushy false beard, plays a kind-hearted college basketball recruiter. He helps an emotionally disturbed high school point guard, played by either Matt Damon or Ben Affleck, by offering him advice, consolation, and other perks strictly forbidden by the NCAA.
Williams portrays a cranky, obsessive-compulsive novelist, who must come to grips with his less-than-perfect life. Helen Hunt, in the role of a waitress at the writer's favorite restaurant, is forced to put up with Roy's annoying ants. Through a serious of humorous and poignant events, she slowly discovers the winning basketball coach buried beneath his crusty exterior. Williams and Hunt eventually end up together, realizing that 35 wins and four losses might truly be as good as it gets.

Africa trip not a diversion, but a landmark event
On March 24, the Laurence Journal-World published an editorial titled "African diversion." The article said that President Clinton's trip to Africa was less a diplomatic mission than a diversionary tactic. "At a time when he is facing increased troubles here at home, what better strategy than to get out of Washington and shift attention away from the charges of sexual misconduct and onto his alleged concerns about Africa," the editorial said.
However, the charges against President Clinton are for alleged sexual misconduct; he has not been charged with anything, and he is innocent until proven

gully by a court of law, not by an editorial board. As to his "alleged" concerns about Africa, bear with me, for we need a deeper analysis.
The editorial warned that images would be coming from Africa to the U.S., "planned and staged with the idea of trying to convince American citizens and those in Congress that Clinton enjoys the support and adulation of millions of Africans." As if this were not enough, the ediary asked, "But what do these Africans know about Clinton's performance as a president and as a person? Does Clinton's character mean anything to the millions of Africans who will be pictured in huge crowds cheering and waving to the president?" To add insult to injury, the piece went on to say, "African leaders and many others in Africa are well aware of the power of a U.S. president and the important role America can play in the continued development of many African nations. This is about as far as it goes. They want Uncle Sam's help — and dollars. And many want to see what an American president looks like."
This is one of the most uniformed statements I ever have seen in print. African people might not know much about American politics, but they know a lot about African proverbs, such as: "It is better to own than to borrow a crazy person."
If Clinton is crazy, America owns him, and the American people have chosen him as his chief, then Africans accept him as he is. In their worldview, Africans know that only the ancestors are perfect and all wise. They know that the living human beings, even the chiefs, have their shortcomings and their strengths. Africans seek out each human being for whatever strength he or she may contribute to the welfare of the community.
Africans also know the value of a visit. In Africa, if you pay a peaceful visit to somebody, even if you are a crazy person, the message of your visit is, "You are such a special person that I left everything else I could have been doing now to come visit you." And the African host will respond by opening both house and heart, saying, "Thank you for coming. You are special too. Let's first give a libation to the ancestors and then sit down and share the little I have." In his supposed lack of character, Clinton is the first U.S. president to visit Africa in 20 years. The last one to go to Africa was Jimmy Carter. At a time when our presidents make official visits all over the world and we pay lip service to the concept of Global Village, do we realize what 20 years of negligence means to Africans? Why forget them for 20 years? Are we ashamed of them? In light of what we have discussed so far, can we now see the positive implications of President Clinton's visit for the African as well as the American people?
As for the leaders, let's remember that today's African leaders are a special breed of people. Many of them have advanced degrees, speak several languages and have taught at universities in the U.S. and other countries before deciding to directly participate in the arduous task of rebuilding Africa. Others, like Nelson Mandela, have overcome the resentment of 28 years of racist imprisonment to set a global example that even the U.S. might consider following in seeking to solve the thorny problems of its racial minorities. Because they are so versatile and have committed their lives to serving the people of Africa and the world, the African leaders have more important things to do in this era of increased interdependence than to just "want to see what an American president looks like." For example, U.N. Secretary General Kofi Annan, who is from Ghana, helped divert war with Iraq. When one knows what these leaders know about life and the world, the alleged sexual scandals of the White House pale in importance.
As we approach the 21st century, readers in Lawrence should demand of opinion writers the best in thinking, writing, cultural knowledge and sensitivity. As readers scrutinize the opinions of student journalists on the hill, they also should take time to check on the professional journalists downtown. This is the only way our society can achieve an enlightened public opinion, the foundation of true democracy and healthy human progress.

Astronaut to share space tales
By Graham K. Johnson gjohnson@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
Growing up looking at the stars in the Kansas sky, Steve Hawley never imagined he had the right stuff to become an astronaut.
Hawley will be making his fifth voyage to space next December. Hawley, a 1973 KU graduate, will be the mission specialist for STS-93.
Hawley will speak about his missions to deploy the Hubble Space Telescope on 8:00 p.m. in the Big 12 Room of the Kansans Union.
The STS-93 is a Space Shuttle Columbia mission to deploy the Advanced X-Ray Astrophysics Facility, an X-ray telescope that will allow scientists to look at objects that cannot be seen with visible light.
Hawley said he still could not believe that his childhood dreams
would come true for the fifth time.
Hawley:graduated from University in 1973
"When I was growing up, I was always interested in physics and astronomy," Hawley said. "But you couldn't say you wanted to grow up and be an astronaut
unless you were going to be a military test pilot first."
Hawley wanted to be an astronomer. After attending the University of Kansas, Hawley received his doctorate in astronomy from the University of California in 1977.
By that time things had changed,
Hawley said. The space shuttle pro-
ject.
gram was looking for scientists and engineers to be astronauts. Hawley said he applied and, to his surprise, was hired.
Hawley flew four shuttle missions, including the maiden flight of Discovery and the deployment and repair missions for the Hubble Space Telescope.
Hawley said his next mission to deploy AXAF may be even more groundbreaking than his previous missions.
He said that while Hubble enhanced the optical observation of space, which had been done from the ground for centuries, AXAF will measure the X-ray activity of stars, which can only be done from orbit because X-rays will not penetrate the earth's atmosphere.
"This is really the first major X-ray observatory." Hawley said.
Bruce Twarog, professor of physics and astronomy, said the detailed
observation of X-rays will allow scientists, by studying the high-energy X-rays they give off, to learn about objects that can not be seen by visible light.
Hawley said whether he was on the ground doing astronomy or in space, he was happy to be involved.
"Now you could actually study the center of the galaxy itself, where people believe there's probably a massive black whole." Twarog said.
"I'll do pretty much whatever they ask me to do," Hawley said. "I just enjoy being a part of NASA."
Hawley, who also oversees the selection and training of astronauts, advises potential astronauts to follow their interests.
"You should study whatever you are interested in," Hawley said. "We don't care what field you studied so long as it's a technical field and you are good at it."
Christian Science minister to share faith
By Marcelo Vilela
mvilela@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The University of Kansas Christian Science Organization is bringing a minister to campus to enlighten students on the topic of spiritual healing.
The organization will sponsor a series of lectures by Robert Jeffery, a mechanical engineer turned minister and teacher of Christian Science.
Jeffery will speak at 7 p.m. tomorrow at the Daisy Hill Room in the Burge Union. Tomorrow's event is free.
"He is very intelligent," said Pam Peck, Lawrence resident and adviser of the Christian Science Organization. "His presentation is warm and sincere, and he speaks from his own experience. It's a good
way to share what Christian Science is with other people."
The Christian Science Organization spent $1,600 to bring Jeffery to the University. The funds came from the organization's church in Boston, alumni donations and private funds.
Christian Science is described as the laws of God that bring out harmony, healing and regeneration when applied to any human situation.
"Christian Science is simply the universal, eternal, divine law," Peck said. "For example, we know that labor gets its reward — it's a divine law. So if we lab for an exam, nothing can keep us from doing well, we're entitled to it."
The religion based on Christian Science first appeared when Mary Baker Eddy, a woman in New England, started studying the Bible after she suffered an accident. She came up with principles of healing and harmony through her interpretations of the Bible.

Jeffery: spreading message of Christian Science
About 10 KU
About students are involved with the organization. Allan Holt, Dublin, Ohio, senior, said that he became a member because he had participated in the religion all of his life.
"It helps you center yourself in a way you don't do in other activities."
Holt said. "I think this speaker will help to open people's minds about two distinct ways of healing, medically and spiritually."
Jeffery also will speak to a class about business ethics at 8:30 a.m. Wednesday at room 407 in Summerfield Hall. At 11:30 a.m., he will speak to a class on philosophy in medical ethics in Room 405 of Summerfield Hall. At 12:20 p.m. Thursday, he will speak at the Traditions area in the Kansas Union.
Jeffery will speak on where the ethics of spiritual healing stand in a world of advanced medical technology. His lecture Thursday will be on spirituality and education. He will talk about retaining a spiritual dimension in a materialistic world.
The Christian Science Organization meets at 7 p.m. Tuesdays at Alcove C in the Kansas Union.

Bryce Meeker received a free Sumazau dance lesson at the Malaysian Cultural Night on Saturday.
Meeker, Kansas City, Kan., junior, was one of several audience members who participated in a traditional Sumazau dance during Malaysian Cultural Night. The event took place in the Kansas Union Ballroom and was sponsored by the Malaysian Student Association and Student Senate. More than 300 people attended.
The program included a traditional Malaysian dinner; several speakers including Daphne Johnson, associate director of the International Student Services; traditional dances; skits and music from Malaysian culture. The Sumazau dance celebrates a fruitful paddy harvest during the middle of the year. It signifies rewards for hard work in the fields.

Meeker said that he had enjoyed himself and that it was a good learning experience.
"It was kind of cool and fun," he said. "I've really enjoyed tonight; it's been really relaxed. This is a good brief display of the country to see
what's out there besides America."

what s out there besides America." Doreen Phang, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, senior and Malaysian Student Association president, said that including the audience members
The programs focused on the different traditions of the three main ethnic groups found in Malaysia — Malay, Chinese and Indian. Each program gave a different perspective on the country as well as displaying unique facts about the separate cultures.
"If they just watch, they don't really get to know what it's like." Phang said. "They have to get the experience, so we had them actually dance to feel what it's like."
Janet Ruecker, assistant director of financial aid, said that the night had been a fascinating experience.
"It was really enjoyable and very interesting to be exposed to a culture other than our own," she said. "My favorite part was the Chinese New Year skit because I didn't know as much about it and I learned from it."
Erlinda Tghai, West Kalimantan, Indonesia, junior and the association's public relations chair, said she hoped people took away an understanding of Malaysian culture and the many different groups represented.
"I hope they understand that there are so many different cultures in the area and all get along and be happy so people should be able to get along in the United States as well," she said.

Cops wanted by the law
KU Public Safety seeks applicants
By Laura Roddy
roddy@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The University of Kansas Office of Public Safety is looking for a few good officers.
There are openings for three University police officer trainees, said Sgt. Chris Keary. The trainees will fill vacant officer positions.
Keary said the minimum requirement for the trainees is a high school diploma or equivalent. One year of experience as a commissioned law enforcement officer is preferred. Applicants must also be 21, qualify for an unrestricted Kansas drivers license, and be free
of felony convictions and misdemeanor convictions of domestic violence.
After one year, officer trainees are eligible to be promoted to the classification of KU police officer.
Normally, University officers must have one year of commissioned law enforcement experience or have 60 hours of college credit, 16 of which are in criminal justice or related fields, Keary said.
Keary said that he began as an officer trainee after working as a dispatcher.
"It provides an opportunity for a greater number of people to qualify," Keary said.
Applications are due to Human Resources by April 17. Interviews will take place in May and the target starting date for the officer trainees is in June, Keary said.
"It'll give us time to lot of the in-house training." Keavry said.
Non-commissioned trainees will attend an eight-week academy in August.
For more information, interested persons can call Human Resources at 864-7417 or visit the KU public safety webpage at http://www.ukans.edu/~kucons
The officer trainee is a state classification. Starting pay is $10.53 per hour plus benefits, according to the state classified civil service scale, said Lynn George, employment manager at Human Resources.
The public safety office is also seeking applicants for the assistant director position in charge of the police department. The position was vacated in December when Ralph Oliver became director of the office.

The sounds and sights of sex
Spring brings frog melodies, blatant flirting by humans

the Calls of Kansas
Frogs and Toads tape.

A free copy will given to volunteers for K. A. M. P. Interested individuals should contact Joe Collins at 864-4920.
Ahh! Spring is in the air. The birds are doing it. The bees do it doing it. President Clinton is accused of doing it all the time. But the frogs, they do it first and they do it loudly.
Let's talk about sex, baby, frog sex. The advent of spring is often first signaled the choruses of male frogs and toads trumpeting their annual mating calls. These choruses fill the night air surrounding ponds and shallow waters.
But local wetlands are not the only sources of amorous amphibian music. One can just pop Calls of Kansas Frogs and Toads into the tape deck and be soothed by the soft-sounding serenades of thousands of cold, slimy prince charmings.
The tape was produced, under the sponsorship of the Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks, by Keith Coleman, Topea graduate student in philosophy. It was narrated by Joseph T. Collins, herpetologist and former director of the Natural History Museum. The tape is at once scientific, educational and recreational.
"Basically this tape is a bunch sex songs," Collins said. Collins said that frogs were the first creatures to come out of winter hibernation, usually in late February to mid-March. Long before the first flower blooms, male frogs sound the coming of spring with their
"The males are calling the females to the pond," Collins said. "And whether it is because the males are loud or because it's pretty, they always manage to hook up."
The first side of the tape, which can be purchased from Kansas Heritage Photography, is a series of informative narrations about the 22 species of frog songs along with samples of each.
The other side is a continuous set of choruses that Collins said were a great source of relief for those with cabin fever, himself included.
"They lift my spirit," Collins said. "I know that spring is here and that the weather is going improve. It's a cheerful aspect of life, and we hope it brings cheer to the people who listen."
Keith Coleman, who did all of the recordings and writing for the tape, said he could see why people might use it to calm their nerves.
"It's a very soothing sound," Coleman said. "It can help you relax."
Coleman said his motivation for making the tape was personal. Nature noises are his hobby, and he said the project grew out of that hobby when Collins asked him to put a tape together.
it took a long time. Coleman began making recordings in the early 1980s and finished production in 1993.
"Some of these animals are really hard to get," he said. Collins said that while the tape served both educational and recreational purposes, the most important function was scientific.
The tape was financed by the Kansas Department of Health and Environment as a part of the Kansas Amphibian Monitoring Program. The program is attempting to count and catalog all the amphibians in Kansas, Collins, who is directing the effort, said that volunteers were needed to go out on predetermined routes and estimate the numbers of different kinds of frogs.
The tape was made to help volunteers learn the different calls Collins said.
But Collins' interest in frogs is not merely scientific. He really digs frogs.
"I like frogs because of the way they get together in the sit and sit around sinking about sex." Collins said.
Frogs aren't the only animals increasingly interested in sex as spring rolls around. Humans are too, said Dennis Dailev, professor of social welfare.
"Obviously, the way people dress, or more likely, undress when spring comes can be a sign of sexual interest," Dailey said.
Daley said that it was important to understand that although there were similarities between human and animal sexual patterns, the causes were fundamentally different.
"I don't know if there is a equivalent in the human species to the mating acts of lower animals," Dailey said. Human sexual activity is determined predominantly by
cultural and environmental factors. Animals are driven completely by instincts and biological forces, Dailey said.
However, there is some significance to the notion of humans being biologically "in heat," particularly males.
"There is some suggestive evidence that the levels of male testosterone increases in the heat of the spring or summer." Dailey said.
Still, Dailey said he thought most human behavior was motivated by social reasons. For example, Dailey said, the cultural image of spring being the "season of sex" can be motivation enough.
Daily also said that the Kansas climate could hinder people sex just as much as frog sex.
"When it's cold and people are moving through snow storms with all of their clothes on, sex is less apparent," Dailey said. "When spring comes the clothes come off and that is more conducive to sexual interest."
Dress is just one way humans express interest in sexual activity.
"What you have in humans is an enormous variation in ways of signaling sexual interest," Dalley said.
Ted Melivennay, director of the Institute for Advanced Study of Human Sexuality graduate school in San Fran-
cisco, agreed. He added that, in addition to dress, perfume and makeup are also common ways that people enhance their sexual attractiveness. Others ranged from accumulating wealth and power to using gimmicks.
"I once asked Geraldo's wife what about him attracted her," McIlvennay said. "She said, 'His American Express Card.'"
Mcilvennay said he once interviewed a man who used a gimmick lure 30 women into bed with him. The man took tennis balls to the laundromat and washed them. He waited for women to become curious about his ballwashing and strike up a conversation with him.
Can you hear the love? The sound of male frogs serenading females is one of the telltale sounds of spring. Humans use more subtle techniques like changing their clothing style as the season changes. Illustration by Andy Ross / KANSAN
He then used charm and good looks to entice many of the women to a nearby hotel, Melivennay said.
Dailey said of all the ways people attracted members of the opposite sex, he found flirting to be the most interesting.
"The whole flirting thing is a safe way of expressing interest in another person, although it can be sometimes very confusing." Dalev said.
While mating in the spring may come naturally for the frogs, humans must wade through complex rituals and many failures. But there is hope.
"Behind every frog is a prince," Collins said.

Rugby teams compete in Lawrence
2
By Laura Bokenkroger
Kansan sportswriter
---
The Western Rugby Football Union Men's College Championship Tournament returned to Lawrence last weekend for the first time since 1984
The two-year-old Westwick fields were the site of the tournament.
"We bid on it to get it, and the main reason we did it this year is because of these new fields," said Rick Renfrote, the Kansas Jayhawk Rugby Football Club sponsor.
Lawrence was the site of the first Rugby Football Union Collegiate Tournament in 1980. The tournament was held here two other times in the 1980s.
Eight teams competed in the Division I tournament, including Kansas State, Truman State, Air Force Academy, Louisiana State, Colorado State, New Mexico State University, St. Louis University and Rice University.

The Kansas men's rugby football team could not qualify for the tournament because they are on probation this semester after playing ineligible players last year.
The top three finishers in the Division I tournament go on to the Sweet Sixteen.
Third-seeded Air Force Academy defeated top-seeded Truman State 24-13 yesterday in a muddy battle for the championship.
Colorado State defeated Rice to finish third in the tournament.
"The Truman State is a terrific team," said Air Force Academy coach Dave Gaines. "They're big, smart, disciplined. I think our fitness worked for us today."
Western University finished first in the four-team Division II tournament. The other participants were Benedictine, Texas Christian University and the University of Northern Texas.
The women's Rugby Football team competes April 18 and 19 in an eightteam tournament at Westwick. Only the winner of the tournament advances to the next round of the national playoffs.
The Jayhawks, 4-6 on the season, will receive the brackets and their seed Friday.
Team wins weekend matches
By Erin Thompson
Kansan sportswriter
The women's tennis team continued its dominating play this weekend by defeating Oklahoma and Oklahoma State at Robinson Center.
The Jayhawks beat Oklahoma State 7-2 Saturday in a cold and windy match, and Oklahoma was not much more of a challenge for the Jayhawks yesterday. Kansas defeated the Sooners 7-2 as well.
The team competed yesterday without Kyle Hunt, its top singles player. Hunt missed the match because of an inflamed left lung. She is expected to return to the lineup by next weekend.
Kansas coach Roland Thornquist said he was pleased with how his team performed without its top player.
"The kids did a great job today stepping up in Kylie's absence," he said. "I think they all showed great character."
Brooke Chiller returned to the lineup this weekend after missing a month because of tendonitis in her left hand. She defeated Oklahoma's Jennie Hamilton at No. 6 singles and teamed up with Sim for doubles. They lost to Oklahoma's Viviana Macropa and Danielle Knipper 8:46.
"I struggled at the beginning of the second set," she said. "I kept playing well and gained some confidence. I knew she wasn't going to give up. Eventually it worked."
Sim said it felt good to be back in the top spot, although she was nervous at first.
CARLISLE
With the two wins this weekend, the Jayhawks improved to 14-2 overall and 6-0 in the Big 12. They are expected to crack the top 10 in the rankings released today.
"We knew when we got the two freshmen in January we were going to have a heck of a ball club." Thornvist said. "We got to off a good start and the confidence keeps growing with each win and even the two losses. The two losses are to top-five teams, and we all feel we should have beaten them."
The Jayhawks swept the singles competition but dropped two of the three doubles matches.
The team will travel to Nebraska on Wednesday for its next match
The men's tennis team traveled to Boulder. Colo..
where it was defeated by Colorado for the first time in five years.
The Jayhawks were up 3-0 when the Buffaloes stamped back and won the next four matches, defeating the Jayhawks 4-3.

Baylor pitching and defense choke 'Hawks
By John Blakely Wilson Kansan sportswriter
The Jayhawks held close to the Bears on Friday, eventually losing 5-2 before beingiced down by the Baylor defense and pitching in 4-1 and 10-1 losses on Saturday and Sunday.
Kansas baseball was beaten soundly in three weekend games by ninth-ranked Baylor (29-7) in Waco, Texas.
The Jayhawks have dropped five of their last seven games and must now combat a tough April schedule with games against national powers Wichita State, Texas, Texas Tech and Texas A&M.
The Kansas offense has been the team's strength all season, averaging more than 10 runs per game, but it was nullified all weekend by Baylor's pitching staff.
Baylor hurlers allowed just four runs and 16 hits while striking out 36 in three games.
Kansas played closest to the Bears on Friday, actually outhitting Baylor 8-7. Catcher Josh Dimmick scored a run on two hits and right fielder Cliff Bryson drove in a run, but the team still lost 5-2.

Baseball
Les Walrond had an eventful day, setting 1998 team highs for most strikeouts (10) and walks (seven) in a game. He also was tagged with the loss and five runs in seven innings.
Baylor pitchers choked the Kansas team on Saturday and Sunday in the 4-1 and 10-1 wins. The Bears' Saturday and Sunday pitchers, Brett Bergman and Kip Wells, both threw complete games while setting career single-game strike out records at nine and 12 each. Baylor also played flawless defense: the Bears did not commit an error all weekend.
The Jayhawks scored one run in each game while averaging just four hits. No batter had more than one hit in either game, and five different players struck out at least twice in a game.
The team now must step up for the tough Big 12 Conference April games. The Jayhawks play a home series this weekend against Texas Tech, followed with a midweek pair of games against Wichita State on April 14-15.
Pierce promises Mom he will earn his degree; Axtell visits KU

Kansan sportswriter
Paul Pierce apparently will not complete his spring classes at the University of Kansas and will stay in California to prepare for the NBA Draft.
Pierce took most of his possessions back to Inglewood, Calif., last week, where he announced Thursday that he would enter the draft and forego his senior season. Pierce said he was 11/2 years from graduating.
But Pierce is expected to return to Kansas on April 16, when the men's basketball team will hold its annual banquet in Allen Field House.
Pierce promised his mother, horse Hosey, that he eventually would earn a college degree.

Pierce: will not finish semester at University
"All I asked him was, 'Are you ready?' And
he said, 'Mom, I'm ready,' " Hosey said Thursday. "He was worried about me and what I thought about him not graduating. He said, 'Don't worry, Mom, I'll get my degree.'"
Other basketball news:
Texas guard Luke Axtell made a recruiting visit to Kansas this weekend, Texas media reported.
Axtell, a 6-foot-9 guard, has not said whether he would transfer or stay at Texas with a new head coach. Utah head coach Rick Majerus is considered the leading candidate to replace Penders, who resigned last week.
Axtell was suspended by former Longhorns coach Tom Penders for academic reasons. Axtell recently was granted a release from Texas and saw the suspension lifted Friday.
The Austin American-Statesman, citing a source close to the selection committee, reported that Majerus may have met with Texas officials about the position yesterday.
Billy Thomas struggled to invitation Tournament in the Portsmouth (Va.) Invitation Tournament on April 1-4. But Thomas' team, MD Designs, still claimed third place out of the eight team field
In his first game Thursday, Thomas went 5-for-10 from the floor and scored 11 points. But from there, he regressed
Thomas: struggled in NBA scouting tournament
The tournament was the first of three stops on the NBA's pre-draft circuit. Players who participated are hopefuls trying to catch the attention of NBA scouts.

Thomas shot 2-for-7 from the floor, including 0-for-2 from the three-point line, in the semifinals Friday. He finished with four points.
And in the third-place game Saturday, Thomas fired blanks — 0-for-8 from the field, including 0-for-3 from three-point range. Overall, he shot only 28 percent from the floor and 16.6 percent from the three-point line.
Ten players from the tournament, including Corey Brewer of Oklahoma and Brett Robisch of Oklahoma State, were invited to play in this week's Nike Desert Classic in Phoenix, the second NBA pre-draft camp. Thomas was not invited.
North Carolina forward Antawan Jamilson completed a clean sweep of player-of-the-year awards Friday, winning the 22nd annual John R. Wooden Award.
Jamison won in a runaway with 5,041 votes. Kansas forward Raef LaFrentz, who placed second, received 3,901 votes and teammate Paul Pierce finished fourth with 2,756 votes.

Today's birthday (April 6)
Make this a week of accomplishments. Try to get ahead of yourself because it will make a better weekend.
Aries: Today is an 8.
Everything becomes an adventure when romance is in the air. Use your excess energy for something more than imagination and anticipation. All of your activities seem to happen through the eyes of your beloved.
Taurus: Today is a 4.
Gemini: Today is a 6.
If you have a plan today, it should be to drop all other plans. Your life is about to be complicated by the unexpected. Avoid expensive situations for the next few days.
Bluffers beware — there is someone who can see through you. Your knowledge is impressive without stretching the boundaries. Friendly rivalry adds a little spice.
Luxury presents a bright spot in a normally austere lifestyle. You know better than to spend more than you have. It doesn't take much to make you happy today.
Leo: Todav is an 8.
You have more energy than some people can stand. Those with an appetite for intensity find you to be an absolute joy. Your charm easily wins those who are somewhat intimidated by you.
Virgo: Today is a 6.
You have a low tolerance for distraction. If you want to stay focused on the issue at hand, you may have to remove yourself from the company of others. Team activities do not go as well as solo projects.
Scorpio: Today is a 5.
Libra: Today is a 7.
You are a candidate for any leadership position. Do not be afraid to step forward and claim what is yours Friendly competition creates unity rather than division.
SCORPION

Capricorn: Today is a 6.
This is not the time to ask for a favor. Your state of need makes you too vulnerable for risky exposure. Keep a low profile to better hide the flaws in your armor.
2
Self-righteous people disturb the harmony of your life. Why bother trying to change someone's mind when he will not even listen? The surrounding circumstances are far more persuasive than you can be.
Aquarius: Today is a 5.
Try not to presume too much today. Others have their own reasons, and you are in no position to judge them. Immere yourself in sensory experiences, and do not look too far below the surface.
The Golden Rule swings both ways. Instant karma is alive and well in your neighborhood. Be fair in your dealings with others. If someone treats you badly today, it could be your own fault.
Pisces: Today is an 8.

Suddenly, and much to your surprise, you are super organized and far ahead of schedule. Try not to be distracted by your amazement. Ride this trend for all it is worth, and see how much you can accomplish

SPORTS BRIEFS AND SCORES
Marcus Scheld, Overland Park senior, won the men's long jump title with a jump of 24-5 3/4.
Candy Mason, Nevada, Mo. senior, won the women's pole vault. She vaulted 12-9 1/2 and set a Big 12 Conference and school record. Mason broke the school record of 12-7 1/2 that she had previously set Feb. 14 at the Husker Invitational during the indoor season.
Mason qualified provisionally for nationals in the pole vault and the javelin. Her seventh-place throw of 153.1 was a personal best and ranked fourth in school history.
Head coach Gary Schwartz said the team did well despite having limited practice time outdoors.
M
"Overall, we had a pretty good meet," Schwartz said. "It's been awhile since we've won an individual title down here, let alone two. We did better in the field events than we did in the running events, but the team is working hard and improving."
Freshmen indoor All-Americans Andrea Branson and Scott Russell also qualified provisionally. Branson, a Leawood native, placed third in the pole vault with a jump of 11-7 3/4. Russell, a native of Windsor, Ontario, placed third in
the javelin with a personal-best throw of 235-0.
Garrett Attig, Lawrence sophmore, placed seventh in the pole vault with a personal and team-bump of 16-10 3/4.

with a career-best time of 24.96
seconds. Bruna also placed second

Kansas rowing team struggles in Iowa City
The meet was divided into a morning session and an afternoon session, each featuring three varsity races. The morning session also had three novice races, and the afternoon session had two.
Kansas won one of the morning varsity races, but Iowa dominated the rest of the meet by winning seven of the eleven 2,000-meter races. Kansas State won two races and Drake won one.
Note: Horoscopes have no basis in scientific fact and should be read for entertainment purposes only.
The team will compete this Saturday on the Kansas River in a meet against Kansas State, Creighton, Tulsa and Texas.
The money was raised by the groups' annual ultimate Frisbee tournament, which took place Saturday at Broken Arrow Regional Park at 31st and Louisiana streets and featured 12 teams that paid $50 each to participate.
Alpha Tau Omega fraternity and Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority will give $1,450 to the Boys and Girls Club of Lawrence.
The donation was raised from entry fees, T-shirt sales and contributions from sponsors. Tournament sponsors accounted for about half of the donation, said Patrick Hosty, Oklahoma City junior and tournament organizer. He said more money could still be raised because all of the shirts had not been sold.

“What its critical for him is that he handles the notoriety he has received and understands that he must improve to meet his personal goals. As good as he is, he must must come further. He can be a better rebounder, a better defender, and a better free-throw shooter." Flovd said.
Also, Paul Shirley was named the most-improved Cyclone, Brad Johnson was named the outstanding defensive player and Klay Edwards was named outstanding rebounder.

Softball goes .500 for the weekend
By Laura Bokenkroger
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas softball team split both its doubleheaders last week end against Texas and Texas A&M
The Jayhawks jumped ahead early against the Texas A&M Aggles Saturday.
Left fielder Sara Holland singled and then stole second base, bringing up catcher Kristina Johnson. Holland advanced to third on Johnson's single shot to left field. With runners on the corners, the Jayhawks called for a double steal. The Jayhawks led by one.
Texas A&M scored its only run in the bottom of the first iming, and pitcher Jessi Kowal gave up only three hits in seven imings.
Shortstop Michelle Huber picked up two RBI in the game, bringing home center fielder Julie True in
the third inning and Holland in the fifth.
With a 3-1 lead in the top of the sixth, Holland hit a double, picking up two RBI and padding the Jayhawks' lead 5-1.
Kowal held the Aggies scoreless after the first inning, and the Jayhawks held on for the 5- victory.
In the second game, the Jayhawks fell behind 2-1 early in the bottom of the first inning. Texas A&M scored again in the fourth on a wild pitch to go up 3-1.
Johnson hit her third home run of the season and the 12th of her career in the bottom of the sixth inning, but the Aggies held the Jayhawks scoreless in the seventh to secure the 3-2 win.
"Hitting another home run is nice, but it's not as nice as winning games," Johnson said.
Softball
Coach Tracy Bunge said defensive mistakes hurt them against the Aggies but they could fix them against Texas.
"After you win the first, you always want to win two so I was disappointed with the loss in the second game," Bunge said. "However, I was pleased with our pitching and our offense."
the ninth-ranked Texas Longhorns Sunday came from behind in the first game Sunday to beat the Jayhawks 2-1.
Kansas led 1-0 with two outs left in the bottom of the seventh inning. Texas freshman Trisha Tatro drove
in two runs with a double. The long-
horns held on for a 2-1 victory.
The Jayhawks struck first in the second game, scoring three runs in the third inning.
The Jayhawks took advantage of two Texas errors in the fourth inning, picking up another run to lead 4-1.
With two outs and a runner on first, the Jayhawks collected two consecutive RBI doubles by center fielder Julie True and third baseman Sarah McCann. Holland contributed an RBI single, putting Kansas up 3-0.
Winning pitcher Christy McPhail threw five and a half innings, giving up only two runs on five hits. Kowal got the save, as the Jayhawks won 4-2.
Kansas takes on Oklahoma City tomorrow in a double header at 2 and 4 p.m. at Jayhawk Field.
Carleton soars above ultimate teams
Kansas women reach tournament finals
By Tim Harrington tharrington@kansan.com Kansas staff writer
Neither the men's nor women's Kansas ultimate Frisbee teams were able to pull off upsets in the 17th annual Fool's Fest tournament in Lawrence this weekend.
The Carleton College's men's and women's teams made it to the championship games and won convincingly against the 30-team field.
Carleton's tournament sweep was a surprise because the No. 2 nationally ranked University of Colorado men's team and the strong Colorado women's team were favored to win the tournament.
In the finals, Carleton's men's team beat a Kansas City-area team 15-7, and the Carleton women beat the Kansas women's team 15-2.
Sam Rosenthal, senior captain of Carleton's men's team, said the reason for his school's success was obvious.
"Some 80 percent of our student body plays ultimate in intramurals leagues," he said. "We get 'em while they're young."
The Kansas men's team, the Horror- Zontals, went 1-3 in the tournament with losses to Carleton, Notre Dame, and a one-point loss to the University of Iowa, which knocked off top-seeded Colorado.
"We just couldn't put it together this weekend," said Steve Chaitin, Chicago senior and Kansas captain. "In the next two weeks, we'll have to work on being more fluid on offense in order to do better at sectionals than we did this weekend."
The Kansas women's team, Betty Reunion, fared better than the men this weekend by making it to the championship game against Carleton.
"Our spirit lasted throughout the whole game," said Stefanie Kerr, Kansas City, Kan., junior and team captain. "We had a great time playing a great team on a beautiful day."
"For us as a team and for us as a part of the central division, this is a great warm-up for regionals," said Jethrol Quenemoen, Minneapolis, Minn., junior and Zontal captain. "All the top teams that are going to be there were here in Lawrence this weekend."

Michigan hockey team wins ninth NCAA title
Honored No.9 still Wolverines special charm
BOSTON — Red Berenson wanted uniform No. 7 when he played for Michigan but was assigned the No. 9 the school gave its stars as a nod to Gordie Howe, who was playing nearby in Detroit.
"It if comes down to goaltending, and it usually does in close games, I'll take Marty Turco." Berenson said. "We shouldn't have been here. I didn't think this team could do. But they surprised me."
"No. 9 is a special number in Michigan history," the Wolverines hockey coach explained.
The Associated Press
Turco was joined on the all-tournament team by Michigan forwards Kosick and Langfeld and defenseman Bubba Berenzwig. Boston College's Marty Reasoner was the other forward and Mike Mottau of the Eagles filled out the defense.
And now that's even more true.
With its 3-2 overtime victory against Boston College on Saturday night, Michigan won its ninth NCAA hockey title. No other school has won more than six.
MICHIGAN
experience," said Michigan coach Berenson, who won two NHL championships during a 17-year career.
Michigan won the first NCAA title 50 years ago and six of the first eight, then added to its cache with championships in 1964 and 1996. Last year's team was favored to repeat before losing in the semifinals, in overtime, to Boston University.
The Wolverines graduated five 20-goal scorers from their 1996-97 team, including captain and Hobey Baker Award-winner Brendan Morrison. He also wore the honored No. 9.
This year, the number was draped on the shoulders of Mark Kosick, a freshman from Victoria, British Columbia, who followed two big
years in youth leagues — 132 goats and 174 assists in 77 games — with 58 points in 54 games last season in the British Columbia league.
named most outstanding player.
Kosick did the number proud, scoring 14 goals with 32 assists in his first year. But, Berenson admitted, he wasn't so sure about the freshman before Saturday's game.
Clemensen stopped 32 shots, and Mike Lephart and Kevin Caulfield scored for the Eagles.
"You see him in the locker room, he looks like our stick boy," Berenson said. "He's so young. But when he gets on the ice, he looks like a pro."
Boston College led 1-0 and 2-1, but Kosick scored twice in regulation to tie it — the second with 6:12 left in the third period to send the game into overtime. Forward Josh Langfeld scored 17:51 into overtime, taking a feed from Chris Fox and putting it between the goalie's lews.
Goalie Marty Turco stopped 28 shots to extend his record for NCAA Tournament wins to nine and was
Boston College coach Jerry York grew up in the area and played for Boston College in the 1965 championship game, said his players showed spirit and the desire to win
"Both teams played very well technically. But, more important, they played with a lot of heart," he said.
AUSTIN — Jim Harrick and Steve Fisher may have some consoling words for Tom Penders.
Texas coach ends stormy reign
The Associated Press
Harrick and Fisher, successful college basketball coaches at UCLA and Michigan, respectively, with national championships, were abruptly ousted from their positions.
M a n y thought there was more to the firings than was stated by the
schools, whether the reasons were justifiable or not.
Now Texas coach Tom Penders has joined the list.
Penders, the winning coach in Texas history with a 208-110 record, eight trips to the NCAA Tournament in 10 seasons and three conference championships, is gone.
The official word is that he resigned. He didn't. He was forced out by several factors, namely a deteriorating relationship with Texas athletic director DeLoss Dodds.
As Penders resigned Thursday, things appeared rosy between the two men. They tossed around compliments and patted each other on the back. Penders said it was time for a change in his life. Dodds thanked him and wished him well.
But things already were in a nose-dive last year, when Penders, who had made a habit of letting people know when he was being considered for other coaching jobs, very publicly courted interest from Rutgers after his contract negotiations at Texas bogged down.
Penders, who had the bargaining power of a Sweet 16 appearance in the NCAA Tournament and a heralded freshman class, ended up getting a five-year contract extension, at roughly $550,000 per season.
According to two university sources, speaking on condition of anonymity. Dodds didn't appreciate being leveraged.
JOHN KINSEY
Whether Pen-
ders' was right or not, his soap-box mentality didn't fly with the buttoned-down image that Texas tried to convey.
Things hit rock bottom this year when four players from the starting lineup — three freshmen and a sophomore — went to Dodds' home to say they had lost faith in Penders and his program.
Many will blame Luke Axtell for running off Penders. He didn't Texas officials, it appears, were looking for a reason already.
Rather than enter into a contentious legal battle, Penders announced that he would take $643,000 as a settlement, his monthly salary for April and $157,000 from a special UT investment account in his name — roughly $850,000.
That is a lot less than what he could have gotten with a reassignment, considering he had four years remaining on a contract that paid him $550,000 per year.
In the last two years, Dodds has replaced baseball coach Cliff Gustafson, football coach John Mackovic and Penders.
On Friday, Texas issued a statement apologizing to Axell for the release of his grades and reinstating him on the team.

Rookie hurler's gem prevents Royals sweep
The Associated Press
MINNEAPOLIS — Eric Milton didn't make the Minnesota Twins
KG R
Royala
wait long to get something in return for Chuck Knoblauch.
The most promising of four prospects the Twins got when they traded Knoblauch to the Yankees in February, Milton pitched six scoreless innings in his major-league debut Sunday and beat the Kansas City Royals 10-1.
Milton, a first-round pick by the Yankees in 1996, left with a 2-0 lead, allowed six singles and two walks while striking out one.
The Royals put at least one runner on base every inning except the second against Milton. But only three of them made it as far as second base and the Royals stranded all eight.
Orlando Merced drove in three runs. Pat Meares had three hits, including a two-RBI single the eighth inning as the Twins avoided being swept at home by the Royals for the first time since July 1994.
Kansas City, which was trying for its first 4-2 start since 1991, scored their only run on Shane Halter's leadoff homer in the seventh. Halter, the No. 9 hitter, was the first batter Greg Swindell faced after replacing Milton to start the inning.
three walks and three strikeouts.
Tim Belcher (1-1), who pitched seven scoreless innings in Tuesday's opener, gave up two runs, only one earned, in six innings against the Twins. He allowed seven hits with
After leaving runners in scoring position in the first and third, the Twins broke a scoreless tie in the fourth when Paul Molitor led off with a single and scored two batters later on Merced's single.
Third baseman Dean Palmer's throwing error on Marty Cordova's grounder leading off the sixth turned in Minnesota's second run. Cordova went to third on Coomer's single and scored on todd Walker's fly.
Halter's first homet of the season, a 391-foot drive to left-center field, made it 2-1. Merced increased it to a two-run lead with a bases-inloaded infield hit off Matt Whisenant in the seventh.
The Twins broke open the game with a six-run eighth, keyed by Meares' hit. Alex Ochoa, Merced and Cameron also had RBIs in the inning.
Cards don't win this hand
The Associated Press
ST.LOUIS — Well, Mark McGwire isn't going to hit a home run in every game.
ST LOUIS
CARDINALS
McGwire, who homered in his first four games, was kept in the ballpark by Kevin Brown and San Diego's pitcher, and the
Padres rallied for five runs in the ninth to beat the Cardinals 8-7.
Ken Caminiti hit a two-run homer, and Quilvius Veras drove in the go-ahead run with a single in San Diego's ninth-inning comeback.
McGwire missed a chance to become the only National League player to homer in the first five
games to start the season, going 1-4 for 4 with two strikeouts and a walk
On Saturday, McGwire joined Willie Mays as the only known players to homer in their first four games. Mays did it at age 39 in 1971. McGwire also tied the league record with seven home runs in a six-game stretch, dating to last season, joining George Kelly (1924), Walker Cooper (1947), Mays (1955) and Graig Nettles (1984).
Against Brown, McGwire singled in the first and struck out in the third. He walked on five pitches, loading the bases in the fifth, struck out again in the seventh and grounded out against Trevor Hoffman (1-0) in the eighth.
McGwire is 8-for-20 with 12 RBIs and six walks.
After Tony Gwynn singled, Caminiti homered off Lance Painter to bring the Cardinals within 7-5.
Wally Joyner singled and rookie Braden Looper (0-1) walked pinch-hitter Greg Vaughn. Second baseman Delino DeShields' error loaded the bases and Chris Gomez hit a sac fly to make it 7-6.
Looper's wild pitch allowed Vaughn to score the tying run, and one out later. Veras singled to left.
Dan Miceli got the Cardinals in the ninth for his first save.
St. Louis starter Todd Stottlemyre worked eight innings, allowing three runs and five hits. Stottlemyre retired 11 of 12 from the fourth through seventh innings and struck out seven.
Pinch-hitter Royce Clayton hit with the bases-loaded in the eighth off Hoffman, DeShields walked with the bases loaded, and Willie McGee hit a two-run double to give the Cardinals a 7-3 lead.

Roush team is Texas giant
The Associated Press
FORT WORTH, Texas — Mark Martin always will have a special relationship with the Texas Motor Speedway. After all, he was the first driver to drive on the track before it was completed. Then he won the track's first NASCAR race.
Yesterday, Martin's bond became stronger as he won the Winston Cup Texas 500, leading Jack Roush Racing teammate Chad Little to the finish line.
Martin was among the top four drivers for nearly 100 laps before taking the lead with 30 laps remaining. Martin never looked back en route to the 24th win of his career and his second win this season.
"I paced myself all day long. Sure enough, the complexion of the race changed just when we thought it would," said Martin, the winner of last year's Busch Grand National Coca-Cola 300 at the track.
NASCAR
Martin received $356,850 for the victory and moved from seventh to fourth in the points race, 57 behind Rusty Wallace, who maintained his lead despite finishing 12th.
For Little, the second-place finish
was the best of his 128-start career.
He led for 26 laps before he was overtaken by Martin on the 305th lap.
Robert Pressley was third. Joe Nemechek was fourth and Johnny Benson — another Roush driver — was fifth. Jeff Gordon ended his run of nine straight top-20 finishes. He was one of 10 cars banged up in a series of collisions on the second lap that delayed the race by 33 minutes.
The wreck was another setback for a track that has had more than its share in its brief history.
Just this week, drivers complained that the exit to turn four of the 11/2 mile oval was still too tight despite $517,000 worth of improvements. A bump midway through the turn was called a crater, and water seepage in turn one delayed qualifying and forced Saturday's "happy hour" to be scrubbed.
But the race went pretty smoothly after that. There were seven cautions for 43 laps, down from the 10 yellows for 73 laps in last year's event.
There was one new problem yesterday. Something on the track caused right-side damage to several cars, most notably pole-sitter Jeremy Mayfield and defending champion Jeff Burton. Both were knocked out of the lead because of right-side tire problems.
"I thought we had the two best cars, and neither of us will get a chance to show what we really had, unfortunately," Burton said.
The second-lap crash occurred in almost the same spot where a first-lap crash last year banged up 13 cars.
This year's problems began when Gary Bradberry drifted low, prompting other drivers to ease up for fear of problems. John Andretti plowed into Rick Mast first, triggering a series of spinouts. Andretti and Mast were knocked out for the day, as was Ernie Ivan.
"When you have a one-groove race track and somebody gets cross up, when they're all bunched up the first lap or two of a race, there's going to be a big wreck," Mast said. "It's just unfortunate that two years in a row it's had to happen to us here."
Associated Press
STONE MOUNTAIN, Ga. The United States ended its Davis Cup losing streak in doubles Sunday, but not fast enough to keep the Russians from extending the series another day.
U.S. ends doubles losing streak
Richey Reneberg and Todd Martin, paired for the first time in the Davis Cup, overpowered Russian star Yevgyen Kafelnikov and 18-year-old Marat Safin 7-6, 6-1, 2-6, 6-1, giving the Americans a 2-1 lead in the best-of-5 event.
Since the match exceeded 30 games, the Russians decided to play the reverse singles Monday. Kafelnikov will meet Andre Agassi and Safin takes on Jim Courier at Stone Mountain's International Tennis Center in suburban Atlanta.
The Americans had not won a Davis Cup doubles match since a first-round triumph against Mexico in 1996.
"It's obviously a monkey off
everyone's back," said captain Tom Gullikson, whose team has a 6-8 doubles record during his tenure. "It makes tomorrow seem like a much better chance for us with Agassi going first, then Courier backing him up. It gives that all-important 2-1 lead."
The Russians used Safin on Sunday instead of doubles specialist Andrei Olhovskyi, who reportedly still is suffering complications from knee surgery two months ago.
Kafelnikov is a top 10 doubles player, but he didn't get much help from his teen-aged teammate.
The Americans focused most of their attention on Safin, who grew frustrated as he was pounded with volleys by both Americans. Kafelnikov tried to encourage his teammate, repeatedly patting him on the back and offering advice, but Safin was in over his head.
"We knew that we might be able to win some points with him
at the net." Reneberg said. "That kind of became our strategy early on, try to go at him quite a bit, even off Yevgeny's serves, put a little pressure on him. He got discouraged."
The Russian strategy became clear after they lost the first set in a 7-tie breaker — Kafelnikov making a couple of unforced errors—and were blown away in the second. They simply wanted to get to 30 games, knowing a match of that duration would allow their players to take an extra day of rest under Davis Cup rules.
When the Russians won the fourth game of the third set, assuring the match would go another day, Kafelinnik pumped his fist toward captain Shamil Tarpischev. The Russians went on to capture the play, but played the fourth like they already were looking ahead to Monday.
"It was obviously cut and dried before they went on the court," said Alan Mills, referee for the International Tennis Federation.

ISSUE SPOTLIGHT
Coalitions veer on road bus system should take
By Jeremy M. Doherty jdoherty@kansan.com Kanson staff writer
The debate surrounding a new citywide bus system has the two Student Senate campaign coalitions moving in opposite directions.
The Delta Force coalition is pushing for a transportation system that would integrate KU on Wheels with a system serving Lawrence residents
Campus Cause candidates said they were concerned that such a plan would raise student fees and would

transportation during weekends.
(USPS 650-640)
"Most of us are citizens in the Lawrence community," she said. "Right now, you can't get off campus on Saturday."
Last year, the City Commission looked at a plan for such a system and found that the program would result in an annual deficit of at least $1 million.
Scott Kaiser, Campus Cause candidate for student body vice president and transportation coordinator, said he was worried about the potential financial burden placed upon students by a city-wide system.
Kaiser said Campus Cause preferred a different transportation option, which extends the range of services provided by KU on Wheels.
"What's happened at the other universities is that students see an increase in fees and a decrease in services," he said. "There's just a phenomenal price tag attached to it."
In the Campus Cause plan, the student bus service would operate from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. on weekends, taking students to Wal-Mart or a movie theater, Kaiser said.
"You either pay $6,400 for a student-controlled bus system, or you can go with a price tag of $5 million and an increase in fees," he said.
Erin Carlson, Nunemaker senator and Campus Cause candidate, said the coalition's plan also would keep the city out of student issues.
"We do need to keep it a student- run bus system." Carlson said.
"Well, that's a start, but weekends aren't the only time students want to go downtown," said he. "It makes no sense to have a wonderful system here but nothing downtown."
Matt Dunbar, Delta Force candidate for student body vice president, said that although Campus Cause's plan was intriguing, it would not solve the problem.
Wendy Butler, an independent candidate for a Nunemaker seat, criticized both of the coalitions' platforms.
She said she favored a plan that altered the services offered by KU on Wheels. Butler's proposal was considered by the Transportation Board for the fall semester.
Enrollment solutions
Student stress put on hold during enrollment process
By Gerry Doyle gdoyle@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
A new way to deal with enrollment difficulties no longer is on hold.
The University has brought back the enrollment holds center after a onesemester hiatus. Brenda Selman, associate registrar, said the center could deal with all holds, except ones that require immunization or discussion with the issuing body.
The center was brought back at the request of the provost's office, Selman said. The office is located in 132 Strong Hall and is open from 8 a.m. to noon and from 1 to 5 p.m., she said.
Even if the office cannot resolve a hold, it can at least get the student pointed in the right direction, Selman said.
"Students can inquire about all their holds there but will not necessarily be able to resolve all of them." she said.
"Some students get to the enrollment center and panic. At that point, they're ready to enroll and are anxious. To be able to walk a few steps and resolve their problems helps ease that." she said.
About 6,200 students have holds on their enrollments this semester, Selman said. On their permits to enroll, students are directed to individual

departments so they can deal directly with the issuing department, she said. That way, the center would not be swamped, and students would get better help, she said.
"We agreed that this was the best service for students," she said. "We don't want to publicize something we can't deliver. That way, if they have a dispute, they aren't going to the wrong place."
Donna Conway, holds center staffer, said she alternated shifts with another employee. During the first
two days of enrollment, about 30 people had used the center, she said. Conway said she expected these numbers to rise as more freshmen and sophomores enroll.
Not everyone was able to pay their holds at the center, but everyone who used it was pleased with the convenience. Conway said. The location nearby the enrollment center helped students avoid long walks, and for a student already stressed at the prospect of missing his or her enrollment time, the center provided easy relief, she said.
"If I were a student, got here, waited in line and then realized I had a hold, yes, it definitely helps," she said. "It's a time-saver if you haven't cleared holds. The idea is to clear the holds before you come, but for those who are unable to or don't know to, it will be a big service. We might not help everybody, but at least we made an effort."
Lawrence junior Merri Jacobs only could resolve one of her two holds at the holds center. Despite the frustration of having to go to the parking department to pay a fee, the holds center was potentially convenient, she said.
"I had a tuition and a parking hold," she said. "Yeah, this helps. It keeps you from having to run all the way over there."

Clinton to talk about reform in visit to KC
By Brandon Copleb cbopleb @kansan.com Kansan staff writer
Clinton will engage in an open conversation with an audience of about 180 at Penn Valley Community College in Kansas City, Mo. The auditorium in which the president will appear seats about 800, but only the chosen 180 will be permitted to interact with the president
President Bill Clinton will be in Kansas City today to discuss Social Security reform at a town meeting aimed at kick-starting a national discussion about the future of Social Security.
The interactive audience members were chosen by a local polling agency to reflect the demographics of the Kansas City area, said Craig Ches肝, youth coordinator for the Concord Coalition, one of the groups organizing it.
organizing the event.
Clinton: Will appear today in Kansas City, Mo.
President Clinton will appear at the first and third of three sessions. In the first two sessions, panels of experts will discuss the problems with Social Security and possible solutions.
Sen. Bob Kerrey, D-Neb., also will appear at the first and third sessions. Kerrey and Sen. Daniel Patrick Moynihan, D-N.Y., have authored a bill to allow workers to divert a percentage of their payroll taxes into private savings for retirement.
Mike Marinello, Kerrey's press secretary, said the senator also would give a presentation about his and Moynihan's reform plan before the forum.
"What the senators both are hoping is that this will move the dialogue forward," Marinello said. "We may not get final passage this year, but if we can just get a dialogue going, it would be a good start."
Many in Congress refer to Social Security as the "third rail" of American politics—a reference to the electrified rail that powers subway trains and kills anyone who touches it.
The Social Security problem stems from projections indicating that the system will become insolvent by the year 2030. That is because, when the baby boomers retire—all 25 million of them—the beneficiaries taking money from the system will outnumber the paying workers. If there is no reform, the system likely will go
Martin Gerry, director of the KU Center for the Study of Family, Neighborhood and Community Policy, served as a policy analyst at the Department of Health and Human Services during the Bush administration. Gerry said the problem involved economic and societal factors as well as demographics. He said he thought the reform that would probably emerge would allow some private investment for retirement but with restrictions to prevent workers from spending their savings.
"My own sense is that the president might arrive at a major reform agreement," Gerry said. "But this will probably play out among the leaders in Congress—Moynihan, Congressman Bill Archer, John Kasich—if they reach some sort of agreement, I can see it happening."

be public record when the reports were completed.
"It'll be public record if someone gets a ticket or is arrested," Hardesty said. "But that's only if the case goes to criminal court."
Hardesty said there were several possibilities for what could happen to the case once it is given to the Douglas County District Attorney's office.
"In this case, there's really two areas, criminal and civil," she said. "If it goes to the criminal court, they'll go through a criminal trial. But if no charges are pressed, it could go to the civil court."
Hardesty said civil court does not decide if a defendant is innocent or guilty but how responsible each side was for an action.
"In a case like this, a court would look at the comparative negligence." Hardesty said
She said that in a civil case, the judge or jury would find a percentage of the fault that was the defendant's. If the percentage is 51 percent or more, the defendant must pay that percentage of the damages the court rewards the plaintiff.
"If the defendant is 50 percent or less at fault, he doesn't pay anything," Hardesty said.
Hardesty said whether the case goes to criminal or civil court, the role alcohol may
have played in the accident would be a factor in determining fault.

Lawrence police are looking for the driver of a pickup truck that they think was used to transport a stolen garden tractor when the tractor fell into the street, said Officer Tom Moore.
Moore said a Lawrence police officer was parked in a patrol car at 12:50 p.m. Wednesday day near the intersection of 31st and Iowa streets when he heard a loud crash.
"The officer looked up, and there was a John Deere garden tractor sitting in the intersection." Moore said.
Moore said the officer saw a vehicle driving north on Iowa Street from the intersection but was not able to pursue it. The vehicle was a tan, late 1705 or early 1980s Chevrolet half-ton pickup, Moore said.
The officer said it had a very bad muffler,
and it accelerated very quickly. "More said
The tractor was thought to have fallen out of the back of the pickup, he said. It landed on its wheels and suffered no major damage, he said.
Police used Hillcrest Wrecker and Garage, 1226 East 23rd St., to move the tractor, which is valued at $7,000, to the police station. Moore said.
At 7:30 a.m. Thursday, employees at Deems Farm Equipment Inc., 1110 East 23rd St., discovered a garden tractor was missing.
"We called the police, and they said they had it," said Kathi Marshall, Deems officer manager.
Moore said police now were looking to interview the driver and any passengers that were in the pickup when the tractor appeared in the intersection.
"This might have been an isolated incident, but we'd like to know who they are and what they were doing there at the time," he said. "We don't know if there's been any other tractor thefts recently."
Moore said anyone with information regarding the pickup or its contents should contact Crimestoppers at 843-TIPS.

GTAs attempt to block bill in Legislature
By Susie Gura
sgurau@kansas.edu
Kansas staff worker
The struggle for graduate teaching assistants seeking health care and public employee status continues.
The Graduate Teaching Assistant Coalition held a strategy meeting last night at the Regionalist Room in the Kansas Union. Fifteen GTAC members were present.
Mark Horowitz, the coalition's organizer, briefed members on the legislative bill to eliminate GTAs' public employee status and the employer contribution to GTA and graduate research assistants' health care.
"We want to find the best way to stop this bill." Horowitz said.
Stephen Mathis, Western Civilization GTA, said there were changes in the language of the first draft of the bill.
"The changes in the language were approved," Mathis said. "It has passed both the House and Senate and is now in a conference committee. The Legislature went way beyond not paying health care."
Helen Sheumaker, Western Civilization GTA, said GTAs were taking the bill seriously.
"Our assumption is that there is a lot to worry about." she said.
The bill has moved from the Ways and Means Committee to a conference committee. Either the conference committee will vote on the bill, or it will die in the committee. Horowitz said.
A resolution by Horowitz and Scott Sullivan, student body president, is going before Student Senate at tomorrow night's meeting. Horowitz said.
The resolution addresses the Legislature and requests that the Chancellor write an immediate statement of support for GTA public employee status and health care for GTAs and GRAs.
"We are going to lobby the legislators hard." Horowitz said.
Doug Parker, English GTA, said he hoped the University would continue to support GTAs.
"I imagine if the University really supports undergraduate education, they will vocally support our status as state employees." Parker said.

Obermueller resigns after clash of interests

After more than five semesters of contribution to the editorial page, co-editor Andy Obermüller resigned Sunday night amid allegations of violat

concerns raised earlier in the semester.'
"I never questioned his ability as an editor or writer, but my concern was with the perception of the Kansan," Henry said. "We had several complaints from our own staff and members

of the KU community questioning him. I wrote a letter following Kansan policy with Kansan
managing editors) Dave and Kristie, and he received his last warning on Monday. March 30th."
Kansan's conflict of interest policy states that because the Kansan's mission requires stringent efforts against partiality and perceived bias, staff members should not be involved in any political activity beyond discussing matters of public interest and voting in referenda, primaries and general elections.
P
Caldwell:Brought forth concerns.
"In reviewing this with Lindsey, it seemed clear to the board that a student ran into some conflicts in trying to be both a journalist and a politician," said John Ginn, Kansan advisory board chairman and Knight Distinguished professor of journalism. "And those don't mix very well."
The catalyst for Obermueller's resignation was an incident late Saturday night in which he visited the residence of Matt Caldwell, last year's Delta Force candidate for student body vice president; Matt Dunbar, Delta Force candidate for student body vice president; and Matt Bachand, Yorktown,Va., senior and Delta Force member.
Caldwell was the only resident home when Obermueller arrived. Caldwell said Obermueller was taking inventory of Delta Force campaign materials, such as paints, stencils, banners and yard signs on the porch.
"He had no business being over here," Caldwell said. "I don't know what he was thinking."
Obermueller said he had visited the house in hopes of speaking with Bachand regarding a quote of Bachand's that had appeared in the paper.
Caldwell said he called the police and filed a report after Obermueller left the premises.
"Everyone at the house has a horrible relationship with Andy," Caldwell said. "I feel his resignation is a good thing."
Henry's decision was supported by Kansan general manager and news adviser Tom Eblen.
"I think Lindsey has exerted her authority fairly and effec-

tively," Eblen said. "I trust her judgment."
Obermueller said that it would be hard to leave the Kansan and that he still was deciding whether he would finish his last semester at the University.
"I don't harbor any ill feelings toward the Kansan," he said. "To be honest, the whole thing has knocked the wind out of my sails."
Obermueler said he tried to be objective at all times.
"I can unequivocally state that I have not been involved in any impropriety," he said, "I have strong beliefs, but I never let them interfere with my job as opinion page editor.
RECYCLE
"These allegations reflect the hypersensitivity that has become the norm in student politics."
The other opinion page co-editor Paul Eakins, Lawrence senior, said that despite their differences, he and Obermueller worked well together.
"Andy was a good editor and a good writer," he said. "Even though he had to leave in this situation, I think he left a good legacy for the editorial page."
Editor Lindsey Henry explains Andy Obermuelter's resignation as opinion page co-editor.

Aluracy cream administration is less effective on pericalcular wart issues from any preparations or surgical treatment Aluracy has the potential to induce exfoliation of the skin.

Students should voice opinions about bike lanes in Lawrence
Every day Lawrence bicyclists must brave the streets as noisy trucks and cars speed past, narrowly avoiding them. With cars parked along most streets, Lawrence streets are less than accommodating to bicyclists, and can be downright dangerous.
KU students and Lawrence residents should go to the City Commission meeting tonight and voice their views about bike lanes in Lawrence.
The city's Bicycle Advisory Committee will present its proposal to the commission tonight, and the more input the commission has from the public, particularly bicyclists, the more able it will be to make a good decision.
Whether the city creates bike lanes will affect all KU students, even those that don't ride bikes. The creation of bike lanes could make life much easier for drivers who would not have to change
Go to the City Commission meeting at 6:30 tonight at City Hall, 6th and Massachusetts Streets
lanes or slow down whenever a bicyclist is riding — bicyclists would be out of the way in their own lanes. Also, bike lanes could lessen drivers' fears about accidentally hitting bicyclists.
Bicyclists themselves would benefit, of course, because it would be much less dangerous and much easier for them to travel in Lawrence.
The development of bike lanes also could affect students' wallets, as local tax dollars would have to be spent on the construction of these lanes. Students should consider the importance of bike lanes and whether the lanes would make
their lives better and benefit Lawrence
Early last month the city voted to implement a pedestrian and bicycle improvement project in which bike lanes would be created on Iowa street from Sixth Street to 23rd Street. However, many proponents of bike lanes and the Committee say that this is not enough and that lanes are needed on many more city streets. The Committee's proposal will include increased community educational programs about bike safety, increased traffic enforcement, "Share the Road" signs, better street upkeep, an engineering study for bike lane placement and eventual bike lanes.
What is the best solution? The only way to find out is to go to the meeting, listen to the ideas and tell the commission what you think about bike lanes - you may help make a historic change in Lawrence.

Good job! You get a Pat on the Back
The following people deserve thanks, praise and a good, firm Pat on the Back;
Jane Johnson, who retired Friday after serving as the chancellor's secretary for 27 years. She served three chancellor's in her time at the University of Kansas, arranging their travel plans, daily schedules, and taking phone calls. She deserves thanks and praise for doing what must be one of the more stressful jobs at the University.
Anthony Nicholson, Overland Park junior in engineering, and Kristen Merchant, Lenexa junior in journalism., who organized the student living organization exchange program. Students from scholarship halls, residence halls, greek houses and off-campus housing spent two days living in different housing situations. This helped these students see how the "other side" lived and promoted communication and acceptance among students at the University. It was a good idea, and a successful program.
To suggest a Pat on the Back, email opinion@kansan.com or write to 111 Stauffer-Flint Hall
Dion Jones, Holdover senator, for his hard work in bringing a bill to Student Senate that would give seats to minority student organizations. Jones had good intentions and spent much time and effort in bringing this bill, which Senate passed, to fruition. It certainly was a historic moment for Senate and may be the beginning of new ideas for our student government.
Rochelle Votaw, Lawrence senior, and Ericka Morris, Lawrence sophomore, who organized a student rally to oppose a Kansas bill that would amend affirmative action programs in Kansas. About 200 students and other supporters were at the rally, which surely sent a strong message to state legislators.
Pat Boyle, University Daily Kansan accountant who keeps track of the complex finances of the paper. She works hard to make sure that the Kansan staff is paid on time. At times she must go to great lengths to track down the staff members' time sheets and, as strange as it may seem, to bring them their pay checks when they have failed to pick them up.

Perspective
Resignation accepted to preserve integrity
I am recanting on a promise I made earlier this semester. If you'll recall I pledged that this semester's University Daily Kansan staff would only write the headlines, not make them
If you'll notice the news story on page 3A, as of Sunday night, Andy Obermueller, Liberal senior, resigned his position as Opinion page coeditor.
P.
Obermueller accepted the offer to resign after Kansan managing editors, Dave Morantz and Kristie Blasi, and I were notified that he was found early Sunday

morning on the porch outside the house of several students involved with the Delta Force campaign; on the porch were campaign banners and signs. This incident marked the end of a series of complaints I had received, both from Kansan staff members and from other students, concerning Obermueller's objectivity in dealing with student politics.
Obermueller did not resign because of his ability to manage an editorial page. He is a strong writer with exceptional editing skills and his talents will be missed on the page. His columns regularly prompted debate and feedback, the mark of a good writer.
But the bottom line in this situation was the perception of the Kansan. Every member of the newspaper staff is held to the same standards of journalism and behavior. No matter where staff members are around town or who they are with, no matter what may be said in jest, they are representatives of the Kansan, and their actions reflect on the paper's mission and have repercussions.
I don't pretend to monitor whom the staff befriends, nor would I want to. It is none of my business whom staff members spend their time with or what issues they believe in, but when personal ties conflict with the paper (in this case more than once), it is my job to insure that the Kansan suffers the least amount of damage to its perception and reputation.
In this case, I found no other alternative but to offer Obermueller the chance to resign before he was fired. He would disagree, saying I had other options. This incident came six days after the managing editors and I met with him to discuss our concerns and disciplinary possibilities. Obermueller was informed at the meeting that future involvement in compromising situations would result in his suspension or termination.
The ultimate decision was a difficult one, especially on a staff composed of close friends and peers. We are now working to find a replacement for Obermueller as coeditor with Paul Eakins.
Perhaps this was an exercise in hypersensitivity, but if what was lost was harmful to the paper, I stand by my decision and hope something can be learned. I regret the damage the Kansan may have suffered, and for the paper's reappearance into its headlines.

Student apathy reflects misguided Student Senate
It's that time of the year again: Student Senate elections. The button passing, poster hanging, hand shaking and politicking has begun.
Yet student involvement is missing from the extravaganza. Last year a mere 15 percent of you took the time to vote, and unless things change, then that number will probably stay the same.
This apathy and indifference is not entirely students' fault. When the issues debated during Senate meetings have little or nothing to do with student's actual interests, it's hard to care.
When senators are more intent on voicing their opinions or toeing the coalition line than serving students, there's something wrong.

As a Senate outsider, it's frustrating to read
About Senate because I feel helpless to do anything about it. It's too late for me to run for a Senate seat now, but I hope that you will agree that if more students take the time to get involved, then the more Senate will be forced to address student concerns. That should be it's primary order of business.
That's why its important for you to know what issues are discussed in Senate and how they concern you — or don't, for that matter.
Here are a few of the issues that Senate had heard in the last year that have had little or no affect on the average student's interest.
For instance, your student fees paid for a speaker who reported human rights violations in East Timor, which is occupied by the Indonesian government. In addition, Matt Caldwell wrote a column that appeared in the Sept. 10, 1997, editorial page of The University Daily Kansan. The basis of both were to condemn Phillips 66, a heavy contributor to the University, for its alleged involvement in what Caldwell termed, "Onr
of the most blantan and well-funded instances of choreographed genocide in the 20th century." Phillips' side of the issue was overlooked or ignored. In a statement released the same day, Phillips 66 stated bluntly that it had no income from, or current operations in, Indonesia.
All of this, however, is beside the point: No proposed action that comes from Student Senate at the University of Kansas, such as a boycott of Phillips 66 or an action condemning the Indonesian government, will improve conditions in East Timor, nor will it have any effect on the general students' welfare.
Not surprisingly, this is not the only example of misguided Senate efforts.
Recently, left-minded Senators proposed a resolution to protest military action against Iraq. Again the outcome of such legislation — just like the resolution to lower the drinking age — would be the same: little affect globally, nationally or locally.
A proposal also was put before Senate to build a waterslide on campus. Not only would the administration never approve such a project, but the laws surrounding its construction, insurance as well as maintenance costs would kill the project before it got off the ground. Therefore, any time spent discussing it was wasted, especially when there are more important issues that affect us.
For instance, parking is an issue that confronts the majority of students daily. So Senate should focus on issues like these rather than a waterslide or the East Timor occupation.
If you want to see these issues put before Senate, then vote. Vote to elect people who will listen to student concerns.
This is not meant to undermine the efforts of the individuals involved in the preceding causes. Their efforts are noble, but there is a time and a place other than Senate to address these concerns.

Feedback
Women's history editorial ludicrous
In a recent editorial, Tommy Gallagher criticized history textbooks for underplaying and ignoring women's history. Gallagher stated that textbooks touch on women's suffrage, but neglect the struggle to make progress and fail to mention that women have been paid less than men for doing the same jobs. Frankly, I have to wonder how many textbooks the writer has glanced at lately. Curious about Gallagher's facts, I consulted six
recent history textbooks. None spoke of women only in the context of gaining the vote. Every single one of them pointed out that women have historically been paid less than men for performing the same jobs. The index of one textbook I use in my course contains more than 70 references to women's history. The textbook describes women's work in the home, in offices, in factories and in the government. Among other things, it depicts women's experiences in the New Deal, in unions, in ghetto, in the world wars and in the Klan. It
describes numerous women's organizations including the Women's Peace Party, the Women's Joint Congressional Committee, the Women's National Indian Rights Association, the Women's Trade Union League, and Women's Strike for Equality.
American history textbooks may well have their failings in their discussion of women and women's issues. To claim that they ignore or fail to acknowledge women's experiences, however, is ludicrous.

Students strike gold with award
Four scholars receive funding to study science
By Emily C. Forsyth eforsyth@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
When Jonathan Harclerode was notified on April 1 that he was a recipient of a Barry M. Goldwater Scholarship, he thought it was too good to be true.
"At first, I believed it to be an April Fools' Day joke," said Harclerode, Emporia junior in chemical engineering and biochemistry. "I was elated to find out that it was not."
Harclerode is one of four students from the University of Kansas who was selected from 1,186 applicants to receive the national award. The scholarship is presented to students who have excelled in the areas of natural sciences, engineering and mathematics.
The four KU students were
among 316 nationwide who received this year's award. It provides up to $7,500 a year for tuition, fees, books and room and board for the duration of the student's undergraduate education.
Recipients of the Goldwater Scholarship are Harclerode; Gene Holland, Russell senior in physics; Adrienne Juett, Houston senior in chemical engineering and engineering physics; and Larissa Lee, Derby senior in chemical engineering.
Barbara Schowen, director of the honors program, said the Goldwater Scholarship was the only award that recognized both excellence and potential in research-oriented students.
"Getting this kind of national recognition is wonderful for a young person who is planning a research career in science, engineering or mathematics." Schowen said. "Since there are only 316 awards given, I think this means that we have some terrific students at the University of Kansas."
Schowen said having four students win the award was an indication of the quality of students,
academic programs and research mentors at the University.
"Without these faculty who are working with the students, they wouldn't have the opportunities to become competitive," Schowen said. "Undergraduate students are welcome in people's research labs."
Thomas Armstrong, professor of physics and astronomy, has been Holland's mentor for several years. Holland has worked with NASA and has developed a software program that measures particles of energy generated by the sun.
Armstrong and Holland are in France attending a conference at the Paris Observatory to present data, including the results of Holland's research.
"Without Gene, this wouldn't have happened," Armstrong said. "He is an indispensable worker — rare for an undergraduate."
The other three recipients of the scholarship also are working with faculty mentors to research topics in their fields.
Harclerode said that a strong academic foundation was necessary for students to succeed in
"At first, I believed it to be an April Fools' Day joke."

research and that the scholarship would help him cover the costs of studying abroad in Stuttgart, Germany, next year.
Juett said the scholarship not only would help her financially but also would be an asset to her resume.
"It's a great honor," Juett said. "It will be of great help next year when I start applying to graduate schools."
The U.S. Congress established the Goldwater Scholarship in 1986 in memory of Barry M. Goldwater, a former senator from Arizona. The Board of Trustees for the Barry M. Goldwater Scholarship and Excellence in Education Foundation select the recipients. Since the scholarship's inception, 18 students from the University have received the award.
Wait shies students away from HIV tests

Kansas staff writer
Watkins Memorial Health Center tested about 700 students for HIV last year, and more than 90 percent of them returned to learn their results, said Patty Dunn, a registered nurse who works at Watkins and who is trained as an HIV counselor.
mation goes in a patient's chart
Dunn said last year, 116 students were tested for HIV at Watkins on an anonymous basis. Of these, 99 percent of the students returned to learn their results.
Randall Rock, physician and chief of staff at Watkins, said students could choose either to be tested on a confidential or anonymous basis.
Confidential testing is available during clinic hours on a walk-in basis. After the student is tested, the sample goes through the health center's lab, and the infor-
Dunn said anonymous testing was done only on Mondays, by appointment. The only information recorded is the sex, race, date
"We rarely have a positive test," Rock said.
Dunn said that according to state statistics, one in 500 college students may be HIV positive.
Watkins offers two kinds of HIV tests, the OraSure, designed to draw out HIV antibodies from the tissues of the cheek and gums, and a test that uses a blood specimen.
"Both tests are considered to be nearly 100 percent accurate." Rock said.
She said that meant students were lucky because some of them had taken some incredible risks.
It takes from one to two weeks to learn the results.
"It is not uncommon to have a student you are counseling for sexually transmitted diseases state that they would be tested for HIV but that they couldn't stand not knowing for that period of time." Rock said. Rock said more
Rock said more students probably would come in to be tested if the center offered a quicker HIV test, which the Centers for Disease Control recently recommended
The quick test has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration for use in clinics in the United States.
The centers previously had not recommended the test because of concerns that it sometimes gave a false positive result, said Cathryn Warren, the centers' media coordinator. However, the centers decided that the benefits of knowing early outweighs the disadvantages of a false positive result, Warren said.
Rock said that students who go in for an HIV test are showing responsibility.
"But at some level, needing to take the test represents inadequate planning for one's own health and in reality represents a lack of respect for oneself," Rock said.
However, Rock said that there were situations, such as rape and sexual assault, that were out of a person's control.

Affirmative action debate questions diversity
Circuit court ruling creates controversy about admissions
By Graham K. Johnson gjohnson@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
The debate about affirmative action heated up yesterday at the University of Kansas.
The debate centered on a ruling by the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals in the 1996 Hopwood vs. Texas case. The KU Federalist Society sponsored the event yesterday afternoon in Green Hall. About 100 people attended.
The debate featured Tom Stacy, professor of law, and Michael Greve, director of the Center for Individual Rights, a Washington, D.C., firm that specializes in civil rights. Members of the firm counseled the plaintiffs in the Hopwood case.
The two debated the court's ruling which said diversity was not a compelling justification for racial prefer
ences in college admissions.
In 1994, Cheryl Hopwood and three other white students sued the University of Texas law school. They charged that admissions policies discriminated against them because of their race. In 1996, the court ruled in their favor.
Stacy said the court was wrong about the importance of racial diversity.
"Diversity is important to learning citizenship skills in a pluralistic society and to the legitimacy and social acceptability of institutions," Stacy said. "Everyone understands the idea and importance of having at least some Black policeman patrolling a predominately Black neighborhood."
Greve said he agreed with some of the ideas but factors besides strictly objective standards of merit, such as test scores, should be considered in admission.
"I don't care if universities have students throw darts or have them run around a course." Greve said.
Greve argued that racial classifications were not acceptable because they eventually amount to zero-sum political games, which are unfair and unconstitutional.
because you cannot win without making someone else worse off." Greve said.
"Zero-sum games are inherently unfair
The Supreme Court will not review Hopwood vs. Texas. Because of this, the ruling stands in Texas, Mississippi and Louisiana.
However, recent developments regarding affirmative action have supporters worried the ruling could represent a spreading trend.
This turn of events has affirmative action proponents at the University concerned about the future of diversity at colleges. Sherwood Thompson, director of minority affairs, said the trend could hurt the progress of racial diversity at many universities.
A report from the University of California indicates a significant drop in minority admissions for next year's class. The drop reportedly resulted from California's Prop 209, which bans affirmative action in state government. A similar bill recently was introduced into the Kansas Legislature by Rep. Tony Powell.
"It could have a devastating impact on the progress many universities have made in increasing minority representation at universities across the nation," Thompson said.

SUA hacks up Soul Coughing for Dav On The Hill

CARLTON CROWE'S BAND
Marcelo Vilela
mvilela@kansan.com
Kanson staff writer
Soul Coughing will be on campus May 2 for Day On The Hill.
The band is in the process of signing the contract with Student Union Activities to play at the festival.
"We heard this band is good to work with," said Sue Buckley, SUA manager. "We didn't want bands that would cause violence or get the audience out of control. Soul Coughing is a band people can groove to and still walk away in one piece."
the contract establishes the band's fee to play at the festival, which remains confidential until one week before the show, Buckley said.
Soul Coughing's sound is a mix of rock, jazz, rap and hip hop. The
band, which is from New York,
was formed in 1992. The members
got together when guitarist and
vocalist M. Doughty, who writes
the lyrics, met keyboarder and
sampler Mark De Gli Antony,
drummer Yuval Gabay and upright bassist Sebastian Steinberg.
They have worked on a Gap Kids' campaign, were part of Lollapaloozə '96 and have been known for encouraging bootlegging of their live shows. They have two albums and have appeared on several movie soundtracks. They are working on their next album.
SUA live music committee compiled a list of bands within the
John Orcutt, Hutchinson senior and SUA live music coordinator, said the band's manager said Day On The Hill was one of best college music festivals in the nation.
price range they could afford, and Soul Coughing was voted as a favorite.
"This is a band that encompasses a lot of different genres," Orcutt said. "It's a very crowd-pleasing group."
Orcutt said Soul Coughing's fee is the smallest talent fee the band has ever received to play at a festival. He said its usual talent fee is about $10,000.
The other bands SUA considered were De La Soul and John Spencer Blues Explosion. De La Soul wanted $ 5,000 more than SUA could offer, and John Spencer Blues Explosion had the date already booked in New York.
Orcutt said the local lineup of bands for the festival would be Fear & Whiskey, The Believe It Or Nots, The Creature Comforts and the band selected at KJHK's
Farmer's Ball on April 21, 22 and 23. The band Los Amigos Invisibles will be the opening act for Soul Coughing.
Orcutt said that SUA was working hard to improve the surrounding atmosphere at Day On The Hill.
"SUA would like to involve as many organizations as we can effectively include in Day On The Hill." Orcutt said. "We are trying to increase the number of groups interested in Day On The Hill, creating some kind of ownership feeling toward it."
Orcutt said organizations were welcome to put up information tables at the event or even sponsor mini parallel events.
This is the first year that Day On The Hill will have this kind of concurrent activity with the festival. So far, Students For A Free Tibet and the Action Alliance have confirmed their participation.

Stolen violin returned to student
Instrument taken from Murphy Hall found in Nebraska
By Laura Roddy
lroddy@kanson.com
Kanson staff writer
Laleh M-Navai was devastated when she found out her violin had been stolen.
M-Navai, Wichita junior, returned Feb. 22 from a weekend trip and discovered that her instrument, along with her music books, rosin and metronome had been stolen from her locked locker on the fifth floor in the east wing of Murphy Hall.
M-Navai had owned the violin for six years, and it had been handmade for her by a Wichita violin maker. M-Navai said the violin had sentimental value and the loss was more upsetting than if it had been a car.
Another student's violin also was stolen, and the padlocks on other students' lockers were cut, the KU Public Safety Office said.
M-Naval had to borrow a violin from a friend. She said musical instruments could not be easily replaced. Selecting the violin that was stolen had been an eight-month process, she said.
But M-Naval did not have to search for a replacement violin.
A week and a half after it was stolen, Simon McHugh, the maker of M-Navai's violin, found the instrument in Omaha, Neb.
"My mom and grandma got ahold of the maker of my violin," M-Navai said. "I guess he just took the liberty of contacting independent dealers around the U.S."
M-Navai said she was ecstatic to find out her violin had been located it a music shop there.
"I just thought it was a blessing," she said.
The other student's violin also was found at the same location in Omaha.
Sgt. Chris Keny of the KU Public Safety Office said a sergeant went to Omaha to pick up the violins.
"No arrests have been made," he said. "We are still investigating."
Keary said that it was unusual to have located the violins. He said it helped that the maker could identify M-Navai's violin.
M-Navai's violin was returned to her a couple of days before spring break. She said that everything except the violin and bow was missing from the case.
M-Navai said the violin seemed to be in good working condition but that she planned to have McHugh examine it thoroughly. The only change she noticed was that it had been polished, she said.

drawal program.
FRANKFURT, Germany — German authorities investigating the death of Rob Pilatus, half of the former pop duo Mili Vanilli, said yesterday they had found no evidence of suicide.
Milli Vanilli's former producer, Frank Farian, said he suspected that Pilatus died accidentally from a deadly combination of alcohol and prescription pills he was taking while in a drug with-
Pilatus, 33, was found dead Friday in a hotel room near Frankfurt.
On Thursday, he had arrived intoxicated and shivering at Farian's studio, the producer said. Farian said he and his partner, Ingrid Segieth, became worried when Pilatus did not answer the phone Friday afternoon and asked the hotel to check the room.
Frankfurt prosecutor Job Tilmann, citing preliminary autopsy results, said that there was no sign of violence and no indication of suicide.

Chemical tests to determine
Segieth said Pilatus previously had threatened to commit suicide in the United States but notified the media beforehand so that he could be found in time.
Police representative Inolf RuipPERT said a passport was found that showed that Pilatus was born in Munich, Germany, on June 8, 1964. bit; that there was no suicide note.
"He wanted to get attention," Segieth said.
Farian said Pilatus was scheduled to fly to Bombay, India, tomorrow.
Pilatus is to be buried Thursday in Munich.
He and his Milli Vanilli partner, Fabrice Morvan, won a 1989 Grammy for Best New Artist for hits like "Blame it on the Rain" and "All or Nothing."
In late 1990, the performers were stripped of the award when it was revealed that neither actually sang on Milli Vanilli records; the two unduly took credit for voiceovers sung by studio musicians.
The son of a U.S. soldier and a German mother, Pilatus worked as a model and dancer before joining Morvan in 1988 and forming Milli Vanilli.
MTV customizes music channel for Russia
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Will it be Boris and Butt head?
MTV is launching a 24-hour music channel in Russia and is claiming that it will be the first time a western television network has customized a channel for that country.
MTV Russia will be divided between Russian music and programming and shows popularized in the United States with subtitles or Russian translations, organizers said yesterday.

MTV Russia will begin airing in Moscow and St. Petersburg at the end of this year and then gradually will spread across the country.
Some of MTV's programming, sold in syndication to Russian TV networks, already has been shown there. And although other western networks, such as CNN, beam their

Zosimov has not decided whether reruns of *Beavis* & Butt-head will be part of the mix. Freston said the cartoon had been a hit in some unusual places, like Taiwan and Argentina, but had not translated well elsewhere.
"I know that for the first two or three months, nobody will understand what's going on," Zosimov said.
U.S. Treasury to cash in with new $20 bill look
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The $20 bill — the largest denomination most Americans use in their daily business — is getting a new look.
Like the $100 and $50 notes before it, the $20 is being updated with anti-counterfeiting features, including an enlarged, off-center portrait.
Andrew Jackson, the nation's seventh president and hero of the 1815 Battle of New Orleans, will retain his spot on the front of the double-sawbucks — so named because the Roman numeral XX on 19th century versions of the bills looked like two sawhorses. The White House still will be portrayed on the back
The Treasury Department said yesterday that Secretary Robert Rubin and Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan would reveal the new design on May 20, but the bills will not show up in a automated teller machines and cash drawers before the fall.
In the meantime, the Treasury Department is preparing a public education effort to
When exposed to ultraviolet light, the $20s' thread will glow green The *thread* glows yellow in the $50s and red in the $100s.
Like the $50s, but not the $100s, the $20s will feature a large dark numeral on a light background on the bill's back. Eventually, the $100s also will incorporate the feature, designed to ease bill identification for people with low vision.
The $20s also will have a numeral on the front printed in color-shifting ink, as do the other new bills. The ink looks green when viewed straight on and black when viewed from an angle.
"In a way, it's a tribute to the job the Secret Service does that people don't give a thought to the bills they receive. But one of the things we'll be stressing is that people should take a couple of moments to authenticate bills. It's impossible to replicate all of the security features."
The Treasury Department and Federal Reserve conducted public education campaigns
Howard Schloss Assistant Treasury Secretary
persuade Americans to stop and look at money they receive before tucking it into their wallets.
Even the most sophisticated anti-counterfeiting features don't work if cash handlers don't check for them. After the introductions of the new $100 note in March 1996 and the new $50 last October, bankers said some businesses were stuck with bogus bills simply because employees weren't familiar with the new designs.
"In a way, it's a tribute to the job the Secret Service does that people don't give a thought to the bills they receive," said Howard Schloss, assistant treasury secretary. "But one of the things we'll be stressing is that people should take a couple of moments to authenticate bills. It's impossible to replicate all of the security features."
An embedded polymer security thread also will be seen when looking through the bill.
Like the portraits of Benjamin Franklin on the new $100s and Ulysses S. Grant on the new $50s, Jackson's will be surrounded by fine, hard-to-duplicate concentric lines. And, like the $100s and $50s, a watermark in the shape of the portrait, only smaller, will be visible when the bill is held up to a light.
with the introduction of the $50s and $100s, but the effort on the $20s will be broader and more intense, reflecting their wider use. They are the bill most often dispensed by ATMs.
At the end of December,
there were 4.4 billion $20s in circulation compared with
960 million $50s and 2.9 billion $100s. Because two-thirds of the $100s circulate overseas,
the Treasury Department focused its public education effort in countries such as Russia where U.S. currency widely is used.
The focus of the campaign for the $20s will be domestic and will include training seminars, videos and CD-ROMs for cash-handlers and millions of brochures and other printed material.
Bankers will use the material to walk their tellers and cash-handling people through the new notes, feature by feature, said Kawika Daguio, payments system expert with the American Bankers Association.
"But to a great extent ... it (counterfeit detection) is a kind of intuition, fostered by a lot of experience, and that just takes time," he said.
Also, the Bureau of Engraving and Printing is working with change machine users to ensure a smooth transition. That wasn't an issue with the $50s and $100s.
"Some machines are easy to reprogram. You say, 'Read this,' and it reads the new bill. The metro (subway) system here in Washington is like that," said James C. Benfield, executive director of The Coin Coalition, a lobby group for coin-operated industries. "But with some machines, it's not so simple. You need a new computer chip ... so there may be a bit of a lag."

Researchers find that drug helps prevent breast cancer
Study says risk could be reduced by 40-50 percent
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Federal researchers said they have definite proof that a drug can prevent breast cancer in women who are at high risk for the disease, the first demonstration of such an effect.
This is the first encouraging step toward finding drugs that prevent a number of different kinds of cancer, said Richard Klausner, director of the National Cancer Institute.
"As with any medication, the decision to begin tamoxifen therapy is a very complex one," she said. "There are no simple answers."
Klauser yesterday presented the results of a study that show that a drug called tamoxifen can reduce the risk of breast cancer 40 to 50 percent among women at high risk.
Ford said any decision to begin treatment should be weighed carefully.
Government officials acknowledged that the protection came with an increased risk of another type of cancer and of blood clots. Klausner said the research clearly showed the benefits for women at high risk in preventing breast cancer outweighed the risk of side effects from taking the drug.
"We are now in a position to give women an option. We can now intervene prior to the detection of breast cancer and really reduce a woman's chance of developing the disease," said Leslie Ford, the National Cancer Institute official overseeing the trial.
Ford predicted four years ago that if 16,000 women were recruited, tamoxifen would be expected to prevent 120 to 125 breast cancer cases, while producing 58 to 80 new cases of uterine cancer, which is far easier to detect early and cure than breast cancer.
Tamoxifen, which is made by Wilmington, Del.-based Zeneca Pharmaceuticals, is used to prevent the spread or return of breast cancer.
Yesterday,
she said, "None
of the risks

Women at risk of getting the disease-because of family history, precancerous breast lesions or age were assigned randomly to five years on either a placebo pill or tamoxifen.
"There are no simple answers."
Leslie Ford National Cancer Institute Official
were unanticipated, and none were greater than we thought they might be going into the trial."
"This is now the first study in the world to show that a drug can reduce the incidence of breast cancer," the letter told participants.
One of the study's participants, 45-year-old Patricia Lorah of Reading. Pa., lost her mother and grandmother to breast cancer. The deaths prompted her to take part in one of the largest cancer prevention trials ever.
The institute mailed letters announcing the breakthrough to the 13,000 women in the United States and Canada who participated in the study, which was first reported Sunday in The Philadelphia Inquirer.
"I'm just thrilled. Wow!" Lorah
decline of about 45 percent. Tamoxifen slips into estrogen receptors of breast-cancer cells and locks up the cells, preventing the cells from growing and dividing.
According to the institute, the drug reduced the rate of expected breast cancers from one in 130 women to one in 236 during the study, a
"If this turns out to be a good risk-benefit ratio for some women, that will be good news," said Cindy Pearson, the group's executive director.
Tamoxifen has been associated with increased risks for cancer in the uterine lining and with blood clots in the lungs. Those risks prompted The National Women's Health Network in Washington to criticize the study.
She said researchers must tell what they know about the cost of this benefit.
"Did any women die of anything
caused by tamoxifen?" she asked.
In 1994, the study was suspended while congressional hearings investigated four uterine cancer deaths in another study of breast-cancer treatment using tamoxifen. University of Pittsburgh surgeon Bernard Fisher, coordinator of the study, was investigated for reports that he was slow to address research problems.
That did not prevent women from staying in the study.
"I'm hoping I was on tamoxifen, but if I was in the placebo arm, I am going to ask my physician to put me on tamoxifen because I really believe in it," said Helen Wilson. 48, of North Wales, Pa
"I never considered dropping out. My thoughts were more like, 'Maybe I'll save my child's life and my own and other people's,'" said Fern Maklin, 49, of Newtown, Pa.
Study participants will be tracked for at least two more years.
Researchers still are analyzing the data. Medical recommendations for using tamoxifen to prevent cancer still are being developed, according to the letter sent to the participants.
The women now can go to the 270 medical centers participating in the study to find whether they were taking tamoxifen or the placebo.

Taco Bell sued for spit'n' chips
The Associated Press
BLACK MOUNTAIN, N.C. — Chris T. Phillips says he won't be returning to fast-food restaurants after a Taco Bell employee allegedly served him spit-covered chips.
The 31-year-old state highway patrol trooper is seeking $20,000 in damages from Taco Bell, employee Jason Paul Jones and Restaurant Management of Carolina in a lawsuit filed last week in Buncombe County Superior Court.
The lawsuit claims Jones spit on food Phillips ordered last summer at the Black Mountain Taco Bell. "I think my only question was why. Had I done something to anyone there?" Phillips said. "It's definitely left a phobia about eating at fast food restaurants."
After eating several of the nachos, Phillips noticed a clear, slimy substance on the nacho chips that appeared to him to be human saliva, according to the lawsuit.
The North Carolina State Bureau of Investigation Lab tests confirmed the presence of human saliva on the chips.
"We don't know whether it was because he was a highway patrolman or because Chris happens to be Black or if this is something they do every now and then," said Phillips' lawyer. Robert B. Long Jr.
Peter Stack, vice president for public attriors for Taco Bell, said yesterday the restaurant chain immediately refunded Phillips his money and fired the employee.
"Company officials also met with the customer and apologized, and we regret he is going to the courts to try to resolve this matter." Stack said.
Jones could not be reached for comment; there was no phone listing for that name.

Pollution turns rivers into latrine
Waste defiles pristine waters group claims
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — From hydroelectric dams in the Pacific Northwest to chicken farms near the Potomac River, a conservation group yesterday cited a growing list of threats to some of the nation's most famous waterways.
American Rivers picked the last undisturbed stretch of the Columbia River in Washington state to head its 13th annual list of the 20 most endangered rivers in the nation.
"We continue to abuse our rivers — by damming, draining, straightening and polluting them - all the while weakening their ability to sustain fish and wildlife," said Rebecca Wodder, president of the group, which is based in Washington, D.C.
Sen. Patty Murray and Rep. Norm Dicks, both Washington Democrats, have introduced legislation to designate the Hanford Reach a National Wild and Scenic River to protect it against farming and potential development. American Rivers advocates creation of a 90,000-acre refuge.
"This spectacular stretch of the river is the crown jewel of
Other rivers the group says are endangered by pollution, commercial development and other threats include the Missouri, the Chattahoochee River in the Southeast, the Potomac and Pocomoke rivers in Maryland, Passaic River in New Jersey, Blackfoot River in Montana, Kern River in California, Apple River in Wisconsin and
"To say that this pristine stretch of the Columbia River is 'endangered' shows that the American Rivers group is clearly not interested in preservation, but rather they are trying to advance their own political agenda." he said.
"We continue to abuse our rivers..."
Rebecca Wodder American Rivers President
Pinto Creek in Arizona.
Animal manure and other farm runoff pose threats to the Pocomoke, Chattahoochee, Apple, Potomac and Kansas rivers, among others, the group said. Almost a half million animal factory farms are producing 130 times the waste of the human population.
"Factory hog and chicken farms are a growing national blight on our nation's rivers." Wodder said. "Waste from one of these factory operations is equal to that of a medium-sized city — a city with no sewage treatment plant."

Biker sore from road less traveled
A friend played a cruel prank on me the other day
He played a crier prank on me the other day.
"Hey man," he said, "I'm going biking along some trails by the river tomorrow morning. Wanna go?"
The last bicycle I had ridden was the el cheapo imitation dirtbike I used to ride in seventh grade, it sounded like a good idea. I borrowed a mountain bike, got up early the next morning, did a few jumping jacks and did my best to look sporty.
We rode across the Kansas River and turned right onto the levee.
The path was straight and wide, and I knew it was time to turn up the intensity. I put my head down and pumped my legs like a mad man. My feet were spinning like a wild Tarantella dancer, and I was beginning to feel the burn.
Eric Weslander
sports@kansan.com
"You might want to shift up a gear," my friend said as he circled around me.
Thus, I came to understand the concept of the gear switch. I unwittingly had been trying to cruise in the lowest gear on the bike, which (as I would find out later) is best suited for large hills.
I flipped a switch, and suddenly, the work my legs was doing actually started producing results. The wind whipped my hair. I smiled at the feeling of speed and freedom.
Then I fell down.
Thinking back, I am convinced that falling down is a good thing because it teaches us humility — it reminds us that there's a bit of a clumsy slob in all of us.
At the time, though, it hurt. A lot.
I was wrong.
But I got back up, determined to actually make it to these wooded trails. They sounded nice and scenic.
When we got there, I found it to be more like the scene in the Wizard of Oz when they get lost in the forest and those trees start throwing things at them. The trail was winding and narrow, and branches snaked out into the path.
Then, the dips started — the dips go straight down for about 15 feet, then straight back up again. It's kind of like the first big hill on the Timberwool rollercoaster, except imagine a more narrow track that is muddy and slippery and has thorny branches hanging across it.
And when you get to the top of the first big hill of the Timberwolf, there's a huge loot waiting for you.
That leads me to the second thing that gave me problems. There are these woodpiles in the middle of the path, strategically placed at the most inopportune places.
"Oh." I said the first time I saw one. "Looks like we have to go back. There's a big pile of logs in the way."
"You're supposed to jump them."
"On the bike?"
"Yen."
Weslander is a Louisville, Ky., junior in journalism.
"Ok. Here goes."
I gained enough speed, but when I reached that heaping mound of lumber, I didn't raise myself quite far enough out of the seat.
Let's just say I went through a lot of ice that night.
I rolled smoothly through the trail's twists and turns, stopping only when I lost my concentration or confidence and panicked.
Finally, after about two hours of torture and terror, three cuts on my right shin, a bruise in the shape of West Virginia on my left shin, a lot of hopping off and on the bike and some more unwelcome contact between the seat and my groin. I started to get it.
As I am writing this, my feet are caked in mud and my hands are aching from gripping bicycle handles.
I realized that mountain biking was about meeting challenges, finding balance and overcoming the basic human fear of being decapitated by a tree limb.
And it felt good.
Someday, with a little determination and with a little luck, I will ride the trails without falling down, without doing any major damage to my lower tailbone and without jumping off the bike and screaming "Yow! My calves!" at the top of a hill.
And someday, I'll talk some unsuspecting fool into going on a leisurely bike ride along the river.
Team searching for comeback
Jayhawks to battle Fort Hays Tigers
By John Blakely Wilson Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas baseball team enterts its fourth non-NCAA Division I opponent in three weeks at 7 tonight as the Fort Hays State Tigers come to Hoglund-Maupin Stadium.
NCAA Division II and NAIA colleges have smaller enrollments and athletic budgets which usually means record-padding victories for giant universities.
The Jayhawks (16-16) racked up seven wins against these smaller schools earlier this season, winning by scores like 14-2 and 14-4.
But Kansas struggled Wednesday, squeaking out a 6-5 win in the first game of a doubleheader against Baker before losing 9-8.
Fort Hays State (30-8) should provide the Jayhawks with stiffer opposition. The Tigers are coming off a 1997 NCAA Division II Tournament berth.
sion II team.
Kansas coach Bobby Randall said the team had trouble against Baker and it had to be better prepared for its game against Fort Hays, a nationally ranked Divi-
The loss to Baker is just one of five for the Jayhawks in their last seven games. After being swept last week end by Baylor in Waco, Randall said the team learned what pitching can do to a good hitting team.
"Yogi Berra said, 'Good pitching will shut down good hitting.' Randall said. "We've hit the ball and scores run all year long, but they surprised us—we didn't hit the ball at all."
Randall said Baylor's pitching staff was the best he had seen in 17 years of coaching college baseball.
"I've never even seen three different starting pitchers throw that well in a three-game series," Randall said. "They hurt our confidence, but it's now a time to reestablish that belief in ourselves."
After today's game, the team plays rival Kansas State tomorrow and three games against nationally ranked Texas Tech this weekend, all in Lawrence. The Jayhawks will play a pair against traditional power Wichita State next week.
Hawks 24 34
"We are going to fight our tails off in this stretch, and it will really define our team," Randall said. "It's a way to grow—winning several games will make a wonderful statement about Kansas baseball."

The Kansas softball team takes on the NAIA defending national champions at 2 and 4 p.m. today at Jayhawk Field.
Oklahoma City has won the NAIA national championship for the last four years and comes into the game with a 26-game winning streak. This season, the Chiefs are 37-6 with five of their losses coming from Oklahoma and Oklahoma State.
The Jayhawks lead the all-time series against the Chiefs 20-2. Kansas has collected six splits in 10 double headers this season, sweeping only McNeese State and Baylor. Arizona and Stanford took both games against the Jayhawks, whose record is 20-23 overall and 5-3 in the conference.
Even with an overall record below .500, the Jayhawks have battled their way into third place in the Big 12 conference. Nebraska and Oklahoma stand in first and second in the league.
Pitcher Jessi Kissel has been a consistent force for Kansas in conference play, posting a 0.62 ERA with 11 strikeouts and only three earned runs in eight appearances against Big 12 opponents.
Kowal was nominated for Big 12 Pitcher of the Week for March 30-April 5, during which she had a 0.93 ERA in six appearances and picked up her first save of the season.
Left fielder Sara Holland leads the team in conference play with a .346 batting average and 21 stolen bases. Holland has 14 home runs in her career, just one shy of the record held by her coach, Tracy Bunge.
Shortstop Michelle Hubler is just one home run behind Holland on the career home run list with 13. After hitting two homers last week, catcher Kristina Johnson has three this season and 12 in her career.
In all 43 games, Johnson leads the team in batting average (.323), hits (41) and slugging percentage (.465). In Big 12 play, Johnson's batting average remains high at .320.
Johnson also was nominated for Big 12 Player of the Week for March 30- April 5, hitting .389 in three double headers against Wichita State, Texas A&M and Texas.
The Jayhawks stay home this weekend to play Oklahoma State and Oklahoma in double headers Saturday and Sunday.

HOROSCOPES
Today's birthday (April 7)
Even though it seems as if you have a ton of things to do, listen to your friends today and go out. You deserve at least one night of fun. The work can wait until later.
Aries; Today is a 7.
Taurus: Todav is an 8.
Stick to your guns. Your day can only get better as the Moon moves into Leo's house. Smothering influences are lifted, allowing you to breathe and act freely. Emotional outlets become more obvious.
You manage to fulfill your own desires while being sensitive to the needs of others. Be firm about finishing old business before taking on anything new. You bring a fun attitude to everything you do today.
Gemini; Today is a 5.
As the Moon moves between Cancer and Leo, you are stuck between a beginning and an ending. Conflicting emotions inspire you to speak without meaning. You know things will get better, but it is hard to wait.
Cancer: Today is a 7.
Throw your plans out the window and do what seems right. Acts of genius are intimately linked with bursts of raw inspiration. The sparkle in your eyes makes you everyone' favorite.
Leo: Today is a 6.
Obligations hold you back from doing what you want. Stand up for what you think is right. Even if you are completely off base, others will admire you for your strength and convictions.
Your knowledge puts you into a leadership position on a hot topic. Family members are quick to turn to you in their time of need. A spontaneous event leaves enough room for everyone to join in.
ti
Libra: Todav is a 5.
Scorpio: Today is a 7.
O
Stubbornness gets you nowhere without a backup of social skills to help others see things your way. Do not give up on a problem just because the obvious solution fails. A quiet approach is best today.
Sagittarius: Today is a 5.
Capricorn: Today is a 7.
2
You are in complete control of your destiny at the moment. The Moon brings you great transformative powers later in the day as it moves into Leo. You act out of joy instead of anger or spite.
Be flexible as you balance between your windy moods and the anchor of your common sense. Others will notice every little change that you make. There is no shame in behaving responsibly.
Do not be too quick to judge others. There may be factors at work about which you have no understanding. If you tread on someone else's sacred space, her reaction could be quite intense.
Aquarius: Today is a 5.
A self-destructive attitude is unlikely to make you any new friends. A deep issue tugs at your sleeve, demanding to be addressed. You would do well to start learning from your mistakes.
LIVE LAW
Pisces: Today is an 8.
Your happiness is infectious today. You travel in a little bubble of sunlight that grows bigger with every person who enters it. With more than you need, you can afford to be generous.

FORT WORTH, Texas — When Bruton Smith spent $130 million to build Texas Motor Speedway, he hoped NASCAR would want to run two Winston Cup races a year at his track.
NASCAR
SPORTS BRIEFS AND SCORES
A series of problems with the yearold racing surface overshadowed Sunday's Texas 500 and forced Smith and track officials to hold an emergency meeting yesterday.
Texas speedway races to solve turn obstacles
The way things are going, he may not have any.
Their most immediate concern is figuring out how to stop water from rising to the asphalt in turn one. They also may consider redesigning turn four, which drivers say is too tight.
Water inexplicably began working its way from underneath the track to the surface in February, forcing two test sessions to be canceled in March. Two weeks ago, an extensive drainage system was added, and it seemed to be keeping the track dry.
ARCHERY

But the track became wet Friday, nine drivers into the qualifier for the Texas 500. Sunshine throughout the day evaporated the water, but the wetness returned once the sun went behind the grandstands.
NASCAR president Bill France Jr. said the problem needed to be corrected soon or he would consider canceling the NASCAR Craftsman Truck race June 5.
Smith vowed to have a solution soon. Even so, France said he also was considering bringing in an independent engineering firm.
"We want to get this water problem worked out," France said. "That is our No.1 goal."
FISH
N
Eddie Gossage, the track's general manager, said modifications to turn four also would be considered.
"We don't want negatives," Smith said Sunday. "We'll exert all the effort and use all the finances it takes (to fix it)."
"We're going to fix the water in turn one and talk to the drivers about turn four and turn one," Gossage said. "There will be no issue unresolved. We hope the next time the Winston Cup drivers come here, they'll tell us it's their favorite speedway."
The fourth turn of the 1/2-mile oval has been criticized by drivers ever since they first saw it early last year. Their fears seemed justified when the track's inaugural Winston Cup event last April was marred by wrecks.
NASCAR traditionally announces its schedule for the following season near Labor Day. Smith must impress France if he is going to get the second date he craves.
Smith had hoped NASCAR would make at least two stops a year in Fort Worth because of what the speedway offers: exposure in a racing-starved part of the country, crowds of nearly 200,000 and lucrative purses.
"The facility here is a first-class facility in about every respect." France said. "But it's got a glitch right now—an itch you can't reach."
But as long as questions remain about the track's safety, two races may not be an option.
Colorado, 35-45 on the road last season and 47-34 at Coors Field in Denver, finished its first road trip 4-3. The team plays its home opener against St. Louis tonight.

New York closed to 3-2 in the fourth on RBI grounders by Olerud and Butch Huskey.
Cordova (2-0) allowed five hits and walked none, helping Pittsburgh avoid a four-game sweep. Turner Ward backed him with a two-run single in the first, and Freddy Garcia homered in the ninth.
Jones (0-1) gave up three runs and five hits in six innings, walked five and struck out three.
Garcia's homer off John Hudek was Pittsburgh's first of the season and the first off the Mets.
Bernard Gilkey and Brian McRae combined for six of the Mets' eight hits, with three each.
Rich Loiselle got the final two outs for his second save, striking out pinch hitter Matt Franco for the final out with runners at first and third.
Notes: Womack leads Pittsburgh with six RBIs. . . Mets catcher Tim Spehr left in the third inning with a pulled muscle in his right rib cage. He was replaced by Jim Tatum, catching for the first time since July 30, 1995, when he was with Colorado against Montreal.

Royals looking to cage Orioles in home opener
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Wetter permitting, the Kansas City Royals will try to make it 3-0 in 1998 home openers today.
The Royals, starting their first full season under manager Tony Muser, beat Baltimore 4-1 on opening day last week, ending a game of five straight road openings losses. Then they bested Minnesota 9-5 in what could turn out to be the 'Twins' last home opener in Minneapolis.
Under a threat of thunderstorms, the Royals will launch their 30th home season this afternoon when left-hander Glendon Rush (0-1) opposes Baltimore's Scott Erickson (1-0).
The Royals, coming off a second straight last-place finish in the AL Central, went 3-3 on their season-opening road trip and won one of three games in Baltimore.
Muser, who replaced the fired Bob Boone last July, spent much of the training camp drilling the Royals on fundamentals. There also have been personnel changes from the crew that
opened last year's home season with a 6-5 victory against Baltimore.
"I don't think you'll see this team making so many little mistakes," said pitcher Jeff Montgomery.
Among the new features at Kauffman Stadium will be new and brighter lights. All light fixtures and wiring were replaced during the winter, and two additional light standards were installed in left and right-center field. The new bulbs are smaller but brighter.
"It was the best-lighted park in baseball at one time, but the technology has changed," said general manager Herk Robinson. Also new is the backstop screen behind home plate. The old overhanging screen, which tended to obscure the field from directly behind home plate, has been replaced with a single upright screen designed to enhance fans' view.
Fans also will see different faces on

NBA playoff spots up for grabs
The Associated Press
With two weeks left in the regular season, the NBA playoff picture is unsettled in many ways.
All eight Western Conference teams have been known for weeks. And, Chicago is a lock to win the East.

beyond that, not much is hammered down.
The race continues among Chicago, Seattle and Utah for the best record leaguewide; and Washington, New York, Orlando and New Jersey are competing for the final two spots in the East.
For seeding and homecourt advantages in the first and second rounds, Phoenix is intent on catching San Antonio, Indiana has a chance to overtake Miami, Cleveland can catch Atlanta and the Hawks can pass Charlotte.
Orlando coach Chuck Daly said.
"You play the schedule, 82 games. Unbelievable things happen." His team dropped to 10th place in the East after losing a crucial game Sunday at Wash-

If Chicago and Seattle finish with the same record, the tiebreaker would be determined by their records against playoff teams in their conference.

Fellow ball players consider McGwire diamond in rough
ST. LOUIS — It's natural for fans to get caught up in the moment, swept away by emotion.
The Associated Press
"You can feel the intensity and the electricity in the stands when he comes up, and rightfully so," said Bruce Bochy, San Diego Padres manager. "He hits a baseball like no other human being."
But when one of Mark McGwire's teammates referred to him as the modern-day Babe Ruth last week, it showed the true impact this force of nature has made on the St. Louis Cardinals.
McGwire homered in each of the first four games. On opening day, his grand slam broke up a scoreless, fifth-inning tie against the Dodgers and prompted the Babe Ruth comparison by veteran player, 39-year-old Gary Gaetti.
Fans began roaring in anticipation on opening day when the count went to three balls on the previous hitter, Delino DeShields, and ball four brought the proceeding to fever pitch.
ST LOUIS
CARDINALS
McGwire didn't let them down, and he punctuated the moment with some thunderous forearmbashing and backslapping that left at least two teammates in
two teammates in pain.
"That was about as electric as they come," said catcher Tom Lampkin. "I think he got a little carried away."
In the second game, he ended with a three-run shot in the 12th inning against the Dodgers. In the fourth game, he put a game against San Diego out of reach with a three-run shot in the sixth and joined Hall of Famer Willie Mays as the only players in baseball history to homer in each of the first four games.
"You just don't see too many guys in this league do the things he does." San Diego's Tony Gwynn said. "If you look at his numbers, it's hard to argue that he's not the best power hitter in the game."
The way things were going, it was
almost an upset when McGwire did not homer in the fifth game on Sunday. San Diego's Kevin Brown and Trevor Hoffman held McGwire to a pedestrian 1-for-4 with a walk.
"He's established his reputation," said St. Louis manager Tony La Russa, who also managed McGwire in Oakland. "He's a hell of a leadoff man in an inn."
For McGwire, home runs just happen, even if they happen in bunches. As a young boy, he remembers watching the great Mays near the end of the line and not being all that impressed.
Nor does he seem to take his feats too seriously. All week he couldn't wait for the horde of reporters to leave his locker stall and was on the churlish side for a man enjoying the ride of his life. There's no way he's going to be fielding any Roger Maris questions anytime soon.
"Anytime you can help a team win a ball game, it means a lot," he said. "Home run, base hit, a walk, a defensive play, it doesn't matter to me. As long as you can contribute."

Milwaukee excited for Brewers
The Associated Press
MILWAUKEE — Who better than Hank Aaron to throw out the ceremonial first pitch for the Milwaukee Brewers' first National League game at County Stadium?
Baseball's home run king spent the first 12 years of his career in Milwaukee, helping the Braves capture two league titles and a World Series trophy before the team moved to Atlanta in 1966.
Although Milwaukee re-entered baseball in 1970 with an American League franchise when the bankrupt Pilot moved from Seattle, the city's fans never seemed to recover after losing their National League team.
"Milwaukee has always considered itself a National League city," said Aaron, who was traded to the Brewers in 1975 to finish his career, hitting the last of his 755 career homers.
National League president
Leonard Coleman will attend today's ceremonies before the game with the Montreal Expos.
The Brewers agreed to move to theNL to accommodate expansion teams in Arizona and Tampa Bay. The change has stirred passions in Milwaukee, where the Brewers already have sold more than 1 million advance tickets for the season at the earliest point in franchise history.
For the first time in team history, the club is using an oversized commemorative ticket fans can frame. The ticket features a photo of County Stadium along with the Brewers logo and their 1998 slogan, "We're Taking This Thing National!"
For a change, fans won't see the designated hitter, which the Brewers had to dump when they became the first team this century to
switch leagues. But they will see pitchers batting — or at least bunting — double-switches and other National League strategies.
Brewers pitchers are rediscovering the bat altogether, though Cal Eldred got things off to good start with a single off Atlanta's Greg Maddux in the season openers last week.
Milwaukee wasn't too successful in the American League. The Brewers won their only American League pennant in 1982, losing to St. Louis in a seven-game World Series. In recent years, they found themselves outspent by Cleveland Indians and the Chicago White Sox.
"At least now we'll be financially more competitive in the National League Central," Bando said.
Manager Phil Garner said, "We've had a great fun. It's baseball. I mean, it's not like they kick it with their feet over here in the National League. It's played the same way. You just bat the pitchers."

Iona basketball legend returns as head coach
The Associated Press
NEW ROCHLELLE, N.Y. — The most successful era in Iona basketball history was when Jeff Ruland was its star player. Now, Ruland gets a chance to leave his imprint again.
Yesterday, Ruland, who has no experience as a head coach, was selected to replace Tim Welsh, who last left week to coach Providence.
Ruland, who played for the Gaels from 1977-80 and spent nine years in the NBA, had been an assistant to Welsh for three seasons.
"I've always been around great people in basketball, and Timmy consulted with me a lot," Ruland said. "Once I started coaching, I really stepped into it, every aspect of it. I'm ready."
Athletics director Rich Petriccione said he was not concerned that Ruland had not been a head coach.
"He's been around basketball his whole life, and we're ready to grow and learn as he does," he said.
The Gaels are coming off a 27-6 season in which they won the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference title and appeared in their first NCAA tournament since 1985. Eleven players, including three starters, will be
back from the team that lost 63-61 to Syracuse in the first round of the NCAA tournament.
"Timmy set some really high standards here, and we won 27 games last season." Ruland said. "I've never shied away from a challenge so we'll try and win more and go further."
When Ruland came out of high school on Long Island, he was one of the most highly recruited players. He chose the small school just north of New York City and its up-coming coach, Jim Valvano, instead of Indiana or Kentucky.
With Valvano charming everyone off the court and Ruland dominating on it, the Gaels went to the NCAA tournament for the first time in 1979 and went back again the next season.
"I've always marched to the beat of a different drummer, and that's why I came to Iona." Ruland said.
Ruland and Valvano were gone after the 1979-80 season — Valvano to North Carolina State, which won a national championship, and Ruland to professional basketball.
The two had a strained relationship after that, and the player accused his former coach of illegally giving him money. The charge never
Ruland, 6-foot-11, averaged 20.8 points and 12 rebounds at Iona, finishing as the third-leading scorer and second-leading rebounder in school history.
"I'm very disappointed he's not here to see this." Ruland said. "We had our differences, but we became very, very close."
was proven in an NCAA investigation. Ruland has not talked about it since Valvano's death in 1993.
He was drafted in the second round — No. 25 overall — by Golden State in 1980. After a season in Europe, he played for Washington for five seasons, then Philadelphia and Detroit. He averaged 17.4 points and 10.2 rebounds in the NBA and twice was selected to the All-Star Game
Ruland, the 10th coach in school history, earned his Iona degree in 1991, attended classes day and night for 1 1/2 years to get the credits.
He was an assistant coach with the 76ers in the 1993-94 season before he returned to his alma mater.
"The first time I was at lona I didn't do things right," he said. "I would cut classes and not study. When I came back, I made the dean's list. Other than my family that's the thing I am most proud of."

COLUMBIA, S.C. — BJ McKie, the Southeastern Conference's leading sorer, will return for his senior season at South Carolina rather than declare early for the NBA draft.

McKie announced his decision yesterday, nearly four weeks after South Carolina was eliminated in the first round of the NCAA tournament for the second consecutive year.
Evans was an assistant for 15 years at Texas Tech and for two years at Oklahoma State before arriving at Ole Miss in 1992.
"I have decided to stay at South Carolina, and I look forward to getting my degree," said McKie, who is on track to become the school's all-time leading scorer next season.

Don Newman, who led the team to
18-14 record and an NIT berth.
Evans has an 86-81 record at Ole
The Associated Press
McKie averaged 18.8 points per game. South Carolina went 23-8 this season, its second consecutive 20-win season. That included a 24-point performance in South Carolina's 62-16 loss to the University of Richmond in the first round of the East Regional at Washington.
After that game, the 6-foot-2 guard said he would take some time to explore his draft status. South Carolina coach Eddie Fogler also spoke with some NBA scouts on McKie's behalf.
"I respect the decision JB and the McKie family have made," Fogler said. "BJ has played a big role in our success over the last three years, and we look forward to having him back for his senior season."
McKie is fourth on South Carolina's all-time scoring list with 1,618 career points, just 354 shy of Alex English's school record of 1,972. McKie has scored at least 478 points in each of his three seasons.
However, his role could change with the departure of Melvin Watson, a four-year point-guard starter. Aaron Lucas, a highly regarded recruit, is expected to become Watson's eventual replacement. But while Lucas adjusts to the college game, McKie may be asked to handle more work at the point-guard position.

Woods endeavors to master Augusta
Golf champion strives to regain last year's glory
The Associated Press
AUGUSTA, Ga. — Tiger Woods returned to Augusta National Golf Club the way he left it a year ago in a class by himself
For the first three years that Woods came to the Masters, the always-thinking Butch Harmon made certain his star pupil played practice rounds with former champions.
Yesterday,
Woods
returned to
ALEXANDER ZAMBURG
Woods: Returns to tournament to defend his title.
Augusta as one of those former champions and fittingly played his practice round alone. It was symbolic of the way Woods finished last year at the Masters — 12 strokes ahead of his nearest competitor.
Woods' victory was a tribute to
his ability and to Harmon's brilliant game plan. Local knowledge at Augusta is so important, Harmon wanted to make certain Woods had every opportunity to soak up every bit of information possible.
"There is a route around Augusta," three-time winner Nick Faldo said. "You just have to find it and follow it."
In search of that route, Woods played practice rounds with Jack Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer, Ben Crenshaw, Seve Ballesteros, Jose Maria Olazabal and other Masters champions.
"That was my main purpose in those practice rounds — to have him play with people who know how the greens break, know where the pins will be on Sunday, know what spots you have to hit on the green to have the ball funnel to the hole." Harmon said.
Harmon was the perfect schoolmaster, setting up the curriculum cleverly and selecting the best teachers who shared their insight willingly. And Woods was a pupil whose learning curve is as impressive as his tee shots.
"One of the great things about Tiger is how open he is to information. He knows that as good as he is, he can't do it on talent alone. He listens, and he soaks up information like a sponge."
"One of the great things about Tiger is how open he is to information," Harmon said. "He knows that as good as he is, he can't do it on talent alone. He listens, and he

soaks up information like a sponge."
Tiger Woods' mentor
Faldo said it took him six or seven Masters to feel comfortable at Augusta. Woods mastered the layout in one-third that time, shooting a record 18-under-par last year.
"Another impressive thing about Tiger is how he uses information," Harmon said. "He is not afraid to take something he has learned right out onto the course, whether it's something we are working on with his swing or something we have talked about on how to play the course."
There likely is not a better golf course to match Woods' game. Augusta is wide open with no rough, so although his occasional wild tee shots may cost him a bogey, the shots will not cost him a double bogey or triple bogey like those that did Woods in at the U.S. Open, British Open and PGA Championship last year.
Ten of the holes Woods played in those three tournaments totaled 24 strokes over par. But he made only seven bogeys all week at Augusta last year, and he never had a score higher than bogey on any hole.
Watching Woods work his way around Augusta is similar to watching Nicklaus play the course when he was at his peak.
"I felt if I played well, I would really have to have some bad breaks to lose at Augusta," Nicklaus said. "With my length, the hazards weren't there. I hit it over everything, same as he does. I see no reason why he won't do it again."
Although Augusta already may feel like home for Woods, a number of challengers will give him a run when the 62nd Masters starts Thursday.
win The Players Championship.
Lee Westwood, the 24-year-old Englishman who won Sunday in New Orleans, joins Jim Furry, Phil Mickelson and David Duval in the tier of under-30 players right behind Woods. Els and Leonard.
Davis Love III won the last major played by the PGA in August—and will try to become the first player to win consecutive majors since Nick Price took the British Open and PGA in 1994.
The last 13 major championships — dating back to Price — have been won by 13 different people.
One of the people who could break that streak is John Daly, winner of the 1995 British Open and who is playing the most consistent golf of his troubled career.
Two question marks are Faldo and Greg Norman, who crossed paths here in 1996 when the Faldo overcame a six-stroke deficit Sunday to catch Norman.
Faldo has not putted consistently in nearly two years. Norman, who has played only 17 1/2 competitive rounds this year, is not even arriving at Augusta until tonight.
Woods, however, is here. The whoops and hollers that greeted his arrival on the first tree told that story.
That both his drive and a mulligan landed in the pine needles well right of the fairway said there is still a long way to go until Sunday and a possible second green jacket.
U.S. team holds on to chance at Davis Cup
Courier wins final match in series; Russia takes loss
The Associated Press
STONE MOUNTAIN, Ga. — Jim Courier saved the United States from Davis Cup elimination.
He rallied from the brink of defeat today to beat 18-year-old Marat Safin 0-6, 6-4, 4-6, 6-1, 6-4, giving the United States a 3-2 first-round victory against Russia following an opening loss by Andre Assigli.
Courier sank to his knees when his victory finally was secure and was mobbed by captain Tom Gullikson. Soon, Agassi and the rest of the U.S. team piled on.
Agassi lost in straight sets to Kafelnikov earlier in the day to
Safin slumped in his courtside chair, consoled by Russian captain Shamil Tarpischev and Yevgeny Kafelnikov.
even the best-of-five series. Then, the Americans seemed headed for their first Davis Cup home loss since 1987 when Courier lost the first eight games against the Russian teen-ager, ranked No. 170 in the world.
But Courier, a former No. 1 whose skills have declined in recent years, had too much experience and grit for Safin, a Davis cup rookie who had never played in a five-set match.
Courier, playing in the 29th five set match of his career and the second of this series, essentially won the match in the third game of the final set.
After Safin saved two break points with booming serves for deuce, Courier volleyed into position for a slam and won the game when the Russian sent an easy forehand beyond the baseline.
The two players held serve the rest of the way, with Courier sealing the victory when Safin could not handle a serve on double match point, sending the return
way long.
The Americans have won 31 Davis Cup titles, more than any other country. Their last title came in 1995, when a team led by Pete Sampras beat the Russians in a classic final at Moscow Now

Courier: Win keeps team alive in Davis Cup play.
the two countries have another stimulating series to add to their budding rivalry.
The United States advanced to the second round against Belgium, which defeated the Netherlands 3-2 today when Christophe Van Garsse finished off the decisive singles match against Sjeng Schalkeni 6-4, 6-4, 3-6, 3-6. They completed a match that was halted Sunday because of darkness.
The Americans never have been beaten in a Davis Cup series when
Courier plays, going 11-0. That streak appeared in jeopardy when Agassi lost in singles for the first time since 1990, losing to Kafelnikov 6-3, 6-0, 7-6 (7-3).
After losing the tiebreaker, Agassi slammed his racket to the court, grabbed his bag and hustled to the locker room. His match lasted all of 90 minutes.
"I haven't played a match that poorly in a long time" said Agassi, who had only three break chance
— all in the first set — and failed to convert any of the chances. "I just didn't the range' on my shots."
But the match turned on more than Agassi's shortcomings. Kafelnikov is one of the world's premier players, and he played like it.
"I was able to place my shots wherever I wanted," he said. "I felt like everything was working for me."
Agassi had won 16-straight Davis Cup singles, including a straight-set romp Saturday
against Safin to tie the American record set by Bill Tilden from 1920-26. But Kafelnikov prevented Agassi from setting a mark and clinching the best-of-five series.
Agassi's powerful baseline strokes were off target the entire match — he had only 18 winners and 35 unforced errors — and Kafelnikov's booming serve produced 12 aces and prevented any breaks.
The sixth-ranked singles player in the world simply overpowered Agassi, who has revitalized his career in recent months, improving his ranking from No.141 to No.22 in November.
Agassi even resorted to taking off his trademark baseball cap a couple of times, but it did not improve his play on a sunny day at the International Tennis Center.
The U.S.-Russia series finished a day later than scheduled because rain postponed Friday's opening singles matches.
Struggles dim NHL's brightest
NHL
"We have to be concerned about momentum this close to the playoffs," Colorado's Joe Sakic said.
Colorado can take some consolation in that leading scorer Peter Forsberg is still out of the lineup with a groin injury, and Sakic recently returned to the lineup after a knee injury during the Olympics.
Colorado has scored just three goals in the four-game slump, the longest for the Avalanche since they moved from Quebec to Colorado in 1995. Even so, the Avalanche (37-24-16) led Los Angeles by 11 points in the Pacific Division following the Kings' 3-2 loss Saturday at Washington.
As for Dallas coach Ken Hitchcock, he is worried.
The Associated Press
"I am really concerned. I think we all are," Hitchcock said following Saturday night's 5-3 loss at Vancouver.
Detroit's 3-2 defeat Saturday of Chicago moved the Red Wings into a virtual tie with Dallas at the top of the Central, with 97 points apiece. But the Stars (43-20-11) technically held first instead of Detroit (41-20-15) because of more victories.
The Stars' Daryl Sydor said, "We have to turn this around quickly or our summer will arrive very soon."
The Devils suddenly have hit the doldrums, too. They had lost a season-high three straight games before Sunday night's 3-2 defeat of Phoenix. Friday night, they blew a two-goal lead after two periods for only the second time in 45 games and lost 3-2 to the Ottawa Senators.
The Pacific Division-leading Avalanche had lost four straight, and the Central Division-leading Stars were 1-5 entering last night.
Despite their recent play, the Devils (46-21-9) have the best record in the NHL, with 101 points following Sunday's victory.
This is not how all four teams want to approach the playoffs, which start in two weeks. And things especially have sour for Colorado and Dallas.
Kansan Classified
The Colorado Avalanche and Dallas Stars sure picked a bad time to slump. The New Jersey Devils and Pittsburgh Penguins, the other two division leaders, also are struggling.
Like the other front-runners, the Northeast-leading Penguins have not exactly been burning up the league of late.
Sunday night's 3-1 loss at Florida gave them a 1-4-2 record in their last seven games.

Jim Alvarez, a senior Philosophy major from Tulsa, has been rock climbing since before the first time he encountered existentialism. Since his first climb at age 14, Jim has experienced all kinds of climbing; top roping, natural leading, sport climbing, bouldering and
slab climbing. For Jim, "Climbing is euphoric. There's no way to explain the feeling. You feel like you've empowered yourself." Well, Jim has already empowered himself up a 200-foot vertical rock in El Dorado Canyon and a 1,200-foot climb in Boulder. He plans to step up to Mount Zion (1,500-2,000 feet) this spring. After graduation, Jim's goal is to move to Arizona to be a guide and climbing instructor. No doubt, after all his lofty accomplishments, he'll keep climbing to new heights. As Jim says, "Once you've reached the summit, then you live another day to go conquer another rock."

President swings through KC Clinton calls for Social Security changes
(USPS 650-640)
By Brandon Copple
bcoppler@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Hoping he will go down in history as the president who saved Social Security, Bill Clinton launched his campaign to reform that system yesterday at a community college in Kansas City, Mo.
"There are some challenges we can only meet as one nation, acting through our national government." Clinton told a crowd of about 800 at a Penn Valley Community College gymnasium.
Clinton said that if the system was not
changed, only those who retired before the year 2029 would receive full Social Security benefits.
Today, however, the system is strong, as is the national economy, he said. And with surplus revenues projected into the near future, Clinton said it was time to "fir the roof, the tree in skining."
"fix the roof while the sun is shining." Rodger Woods, Hutchinson first-year law student, walked out of the forum more optimistic about the chances for fixing the roof.
"I think we heard some ideas today that five years ago would have ended any politician's career." Woods said. "There may be a good chance we'll get some form of nonpartisan solution."
Woods said he was
THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES
"It bothers me to think that I could pay in all this money and do no better than if I just threw it down a wishing well and hoped for retirement savings," he said. "But I think everybody our age realizes that we'll have to save for our own retirement."
concerned that he never would see any benefits from his payroll taxes, which take about 12 percent out of each paycheck for a person who earns less than $68,400.
Clinton attempted to assuage that skepticism. He said that he had seen a poll showing that Americans in their 20s
believed that they were more likely to see a UFO than a Social Security check.
"We can and will put Social Security in order," he said.
President Clinton outlines his plan to save Social Security. Clinton spoke to about 800 people yesterday at Penn Valley Community College in Kansas City, Mo. Photo by Kansan staff
During the afternoon session, Clinton, the members of Congress and a panel of policy experts received questions from 185 people chosen by a polling agency to represent Kansas City's demographics.
Clinton opened the morning session with the Great Social Security Debate. He was followed by four congressmen—one from each party in each chamber.
Clinton did not endorse a particular method for fixing Social Security, but he
said that any reform must provide benefits that impoverished retirees could count on and fair benefits for all Americans regardless of market fluctuation.
He said the system must continue to provide benefits to the disabled and families of deceased wage-earners. He also said that any new system must maintain "fiscal discipline."
Woods said the reform proposal he preferred was that of Sens. Daniel Patrick Moynihan, D-N.Y., and John Kerrey, D-Neb. Kerrey promoted the plan at yesterday's forum.
Kerrey said his plan should appeal to today's college students because it would allow them to divert a percentage of their payroll deduction to a private savings account.
"Young people should begin by saying they're glad to live in a country where we have Social Security to ensure that people who retire don't live in poverty," he said. "They should support that as a fundamental contract in our society and know that they're getting a better country as a result."
Although none of the other members of Congress offered a plan, all three seemed to support the notion of taking some of the payroll deduction and requiring that it be invested for retirement.
Clinton warmed to that notion as well. He said that public meetings would continue until December. In January, Clinton said he planned to assemble Congressional leaders to draft a plan.
He said that the important thing was to make sure that Americans had all the facts.
"You get in trouble in life if you start denying the facts," he said.
Cyclists wheel, deal for bike lanes
Unconvinced City Commission asks for more research
By Jeremy M. Doherty idhorety@kansan.com Kanson staff writer
About two dozen bicyclists rallied and rode for bicycle lanes in Lawrence at last
Klip Curtis, New York graduate student and an organizer of the rally, said the cyclists wanted to encourage the commission to consider adding bike lanes before putting money into law enforcement.
night's city Commission meeting, but the evening ended without the body making any firm commitments on the issue.
Before the meeting, the group of cyclists comprised of University of Kansas students and Lawrence residents participated in a traffic-stalling ride down Massachusetts Street.
The commission, including newly elected Mayor Marty Kennedy, ultimately directed its staff to further study a series of recommendations drafted by the Bicycle Advisory Committee.
The recommendations were broken down into three prioritized areas: education, enforcement and engineering.
The bicycle-lane provision
was included in engineering. Recommendations for a city bicycle coordinator, Share the Road signs and more traffic enforcement were considered higher priorities by the committee.
Kennedy said the recommendations could lead to a greater respect between bicyclists and motorists.
Curtis directly criticized the commission during the public comment session, saying that the commissioners were not adequately working to finance the bicycle lanes.
"That's been our main objective all along," Kennedy said. "The committee has brought forth a lot of information that we need to digest."
Curtis said he had noticed that cities such as Missoula, Mont., had taken as long as five years to get bicycle lanes past the design and construction phases. He said he was concerned that if money was not set aside in this year's budget sessions, the wait could be as long as six years.
"You need to try to set aside money this year," Curtis said. "On Vermont Street, those lanes could be put down right away. My own experience tells me that all you need to do is paint lines."
Matt Caldwell, Lawrence senior and member of the Bicycle Advisory Committee, echoed that concern. To recommend lanes as the first priority could have hurt the issue, he said.
The city already has applied for federal funds to hire a fulltime staff member to act as bicycle coordinator, said Mike Wilden, city manager. He said the city already was working on the Share the Road signs but was not prepared to handle engineering matters.
cover," Wildgen said. "We're not going to get it all done in a two-month thing."
"I don't think the first thing on the list would be bike lanes
"There are a lot of issues to
because of the cost," Caldwell said. "We need to do a study on actually instating the program."
With the recommendations now in the hands of the City Hall staff for further analysis, the City Commission could receive the first resolutions in the coming weeks.
The meeting also included the installation of Commissioner Kennedy to the mayor's office. Taking over from outgoing Mayor Bonnie Augustine, Kennedy praised the accomplishments of his predecessor and pledged to keep in touch with the concerns of the public.

"My phone is always open, and please call it," Kennedy said to the capacity-filled meeting room.

Coalitions agree: University must attract, support more minorities
By Sara Anderson sanderson@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
As elections near, both Student Senate coalitions are addressing the University's need to recruit and retain minority students and faculty.
The Delta Force coalition plans to work with Chancellor Robert Hemenway to increase the number of minority faculty members and incoming minority freshmen, while the Campus Cause coalition intends to
7 days away
STUDENT
SENATE
increase the visibility of the University's existing minority programs.
Emily Heath, Delta Force candidate for student body president, said the main goal of Delta Force was to work in conjunction with the chancellor on minority recruitment.
"The bottom line is that minority students are more willing to come with more minority faculty members, and with more minority faculty members brings more minority students," Heath said. "We want to make it a priority."
Scott Kaiser, Campus Cause candidate for student body vice president, said that focusing on existing programs would increase student awareness.
"It won't help to have eight or nine programs that have the same objective because it creates overlap and redundancy," Kaiser said. "We want to secure their funding and work with programs to strengthen and support them."
Sherwood Thompson, director of the Office of Minority Affairs, said that Student Senate could play an integral role in minority retention at the University.
"I think the Student Senate could be effective in developing and passing effective legislation that would bring awareness to campus about increasing enrollment, because retention begins with enrollment," Thompson said. "Another way is by providing special funding to increase minority students' access to campus by reducing their debt."
R. J. Woodring, Campus Cause candidate for a Nunemaker seat, said that it was important to reach out to minority groups and to support existing organizations.
"We want to work with what the University offers and highlight what it offers." Woodring said. "By working with improving programs at the Multicultural Resource Center we can make it more helpful in assisting students and the University and offering more programs in the organizations already in place."
Anthony Hersey, Delta Force candidate for an architecture seat, said Delta Force was thinking about hosting a campus conversation on race in the fall "to provide students with the opportunity to discuss their views and issues of minorities." he said.
Hersey said the student body should reflect the different cultures and groups represented in society.
"We need to get more minorities in the University because we are becoming a diverse world," he said.

Recycling, technology and parking are other issues being raised by Student Senate candidates.

Lawrence police Sgt. George Wheeler said a counterfeit $20 bill was used Thursday afternoon at the Disabled American Veterans Thrift Store, 1601 W. 23rd St.
"It looks like it's a Xerox copy," Wheeler said. "The clerk didn't notice the bill was counterfeit until after he was gone."
counterfeiting after he was gone.
Wheeler said the suspect had been contacted at his house, where police recovered the items purchased with the fake bill. Wheeler said that the man was not arrested and that the investigation was ongoing. He said police were looking at four other cases of counterfeiting in the last month.
"We're trying to connect some of these, but we're not there vet." Wheeler said.
Lawrence police arrested a man Thursday in connection to the passing of a counterfeit $20 bill at Westside 66 and Car Wash. 2815 W. Sixth St. Wheeler said.
The KU Public Safety Office reported that a counterfeit $10 bill was used Thursday in the Kansas Union Bookstore. The bill was the first in the recent string to be used on campus and was the first fake $10 bill used.
Wheeler said that he did not think the counterfeit $10 bill was related to the five recent incidents of fake $20 bills.
Mike Ree, KU Bookstore manager, said he did not know anything about the bill.
"Nobody at the police department has talked to me about it," he said. Neither of the KU Public Safety Office's spokesmen were available for comment on the incident.

NATION FCC leader wants to see more minority owners
LAS VEGAS — The nation's top broadcast regulator challenged the television and radio industries yesterday to find ways to bolster minority ownership,
Minorities own only 2.8 percent of the nation's TV and radio stations. The number is on the decline.
Bill Kennard, chairman of the Federal Communications Commission, asked the industry to give him ideas within 60 days for reversing the trend. It was Kennard's first address as FCC chairman to the broadcasting industry, which is meeting here.
Eddie Fritts, president of the National Association of Broadcasters, said in an interview that his organization already had commenced meetings with Kennard and other FCC officials to begin the campaign. Fritts said the industry was up to Kennard's challenge.
Kennard said the dismal state of minority ownership was further threatened by
industry concentration. A 1996 telecommunications law fueled an unprecedented wave of media mergers.
Minorities need greater access to capital and better training and mentoring, Kennard said.
The government used to encourage minority ownership by giving a tax break to broadcasters who sold stations to minorities, but Congress repealed that provision, called a tax certificate, a few years ago.
'Don't ask, don't tell' rule to be enforced by Cohen
WASHINGTON — Defense Secretary William Cohen acknowledged yesterday that some commanders had not received the message about the Clinton administration's policy barring the pursuit and harassment of homosexuals in the military. He ordered new guidelines to explain and enforce it.
"I have tried to make it very clear that we want this policy fully and fairly implemented. That means there's to be no pursuit, there's to be no harassment, and it's taking place, its something I'm very concerned about." Cohen said in an interview on National Public Radio.
The "don't ask, don't tell, don't pursue" policy was initiated in 1994 amid great controversy and attempted to strike a balance between prohibited homosexual conduct in the military and attempts to maintain the privacy of those who chose not to declare their sexual orientation.
Meanwhile, the Department of Defense released a report that showed the number of people discharged for homosexuality climbed from 850 in 1996 to 997 last year. The lowest number discharged was 617 in 1994, while the highest in recent years numbered 1,998 in 1982, the report said.
The report also said that 80 percent of those discharged for homosexuality in 1997 had made a statement that they were homosexual. More than 80 percent
of those discharged had less than four years of service, the study said.

Fox sinks $8,000 into fund in honor of Titanic officer
DALBEATTIE, Scotland — Twentieth Century Fox is giving $8,000 to a fund commemorating the Titanic's first mate after his family and neighbors objected to the movie's portrait of him.
The blockbuster film presents William Murdoch as a murderer and bribe-taker—but the residents of Dalbieattie, his home-town in southwest Scotland, say he was a hero.
After family and friends criticized the film, lawmaker Alasdair Morgan wrote to the makers of *Titanic* asking for an apology.
"Officer Murdoch was a decent, responsible and very human hero and should remain a source of pride for Dalbeattie, and in the memories of all who know of his life," Scott Neeson, executive vice president for Twentieth Century Fox, wrote back yesterday to Morgan.
The film shows the first mate killing two passengers who are fighting to get off the sinking ship onto a lifeboat. He then shuns himself.
But Neeson stopped short of a full apology.
In his letter, Neeson said survivors had reported that some of the ship's officers fired guns into the crowds and at least one officer was known to have committed suicide.
However, Twentieth Century Fox then pledged money for a long-established commoration fund that awards the Murdoch Memorial Prize for achievement each year to a pupil of Dalbeattie High School, Murdoch's alma mater.

Natural Ties earns bid for national service award
By Melissa Ngo
mngo@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
The Arc of the United States is a national organization on mental retardation.
The Natural Ties campus organization won the Douglas County Arc Special Service award in December, the Kansas Arc Special Service award in March and now is a finalist for the national Arc Special Service award.
Each state nominates an organization for the award, and the group does not yet know when it will find out if it has won, said Kelli Wooldridge, Natural Ties co-coordinator and Ullyses senior.
This is the first time the group has been up for the national award.
"I think winning the local and state awards and being nominated for the national award is an honor for all the work that we do," Wooldridge said.
Natural Ties matches campus student organizations with people with developmental disabilities, said John Warren, Natural Ties co-coordinator and Denver senior.
The group organizes activities, such as bowling and picnics, every Wednesday to help further the relationship between organizations and developmentally disabled persons, Warren said. The next activity will be a barbecue at the Sigma Kappa house this afternoon, he said.
Organizations that are involved include the greek chapters, the University of Kansas band and Community Living Organizations, Warren said.
Warren said that he was proud the group was nominated for the award.
"It's the members that make the organization what it is, and we're proud of them," he said.
Laura Weissert, Manchester, Mo., senior, has been involved with Natural Ties for three years. She said being a part of the group was a learning experience.
"It provides companionship and friendship for people," she said. "I think it helps everyone involved because we learn from each other."
Natural Ties began at the University in 1988 and has expanded to 10 other universities, including Kansas State University, Warren said.
Natural Ties will receive the state award on April 18 in Salina, Wooldridge said.

Queers & Allies to request money for Pride Week
By Marc Sheforgen mssheforgen@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Queers and Allies has a lot on the line at tonight's Student Senate meeting.
Pride Week will begin April 20 and will continue through April 25.
Three keynote speakers, a drag show and a queer prom are among the events planned.
The group, a 28-year-old campus organization that exists to raise awareness of homosexual issues and events, is asking Senate for $8867 to help finance Pride Week, a five-day series of events that would promote the voice of Queers and Allies on campus.
Matt Dunbar, off-campus senator,
said he supported financing Pride Week. However, he said that he was worried that some senators may have a problem with the amount of money that Queers and Allies was requesting.
The bill to finance Pride Week calls for allocation of funds from the Senate Reserve Account. Although the account still contains $230,000, not all Student Senators are in favor of using this money to finance the events of organizations.
"I think the reserve account is for emergency situations," said Tom Preheim. Student Senate treasurer.
Preheim said that it was unfortunate that there was not more money left in Senate's unallocated account to finance organizations like Queers and Allies. But he said that it would not set a proper precedent to use the reserve account for this kind of assistance.
Dunbar said that he was concerned with senators using the disagreement to mask their prejudice towards homosexuals.
Katie Shay, director of Queers and Allies, said that without the money from Student Senate, Pride Week would face serious problems.
Although Queers and Allies had raised more than $2,000 on its own, it would not be able to pay the keynote speakers without help from Senate. Shay said.
She said that it would be unfair to deny her group funding just because it was late in the year and Senate may be running low on money.
"I don't think that Student Senate would be just in saying, 'Sorry, you get screwed because you happen to have your Pride Week during second semester, and we're all out of money,'" she said.
Shay said that Pride Week was open to the entire KU community, straight or gay.
"We don't discriminate, because we do know how it feels," Shay said.
Jewish singles win dates in contest
Couples matched by answers, stunts during Singled Out

Eating Twinkies covered in whipped cream was just one of the stunts performed by students during Jewish Singled Out last night.
The University of Kansas Hilliell Foundation sponsored its version of MTV's Singled Out last night in the Naismith Hall cafeteria. Seventy-five students attended.
Danny Cohn, Omaha junior and co-chairman of Singled Out, said that organizers planned the
"We heard people say that they didn't like meeting people at bars or parties, so we decided to do the game." Cohn said.
event after hearing about the struggles of students searching for romantic dates.
In Jewish Singled Out, contestants Andrew Zidel and Mandy Kaprall, Minnetonka, Minn., freshmen, asked student participants questions about their perfect mates. In addition to answering questions, students had to perform an accompanying stunt. If they successfully completed the stunts, they advanced closer to winning a date with Zidel or Kaprall. The game included two rounds of questioning.
Zidel and Kaprall were chosen following an interview with event coordinators.
"We had about 40 people interview," Cohn said. "We were looking for spunk and personality."
In addition to eating Twinkies covered in whipped cream, student participants had to eat cold chicken soup and sing.
Although everyone was encouraged to participate, many students simply watched and cheered the participants.
I came to support my friends that are involved," said Nikki Anesi, Buffalo Grove, Ill., sophomore.
Mike Furman, Plymouth,
Minn., freshman, made it to
the final round of the game but lost
in the bonus round.
"I came because I need a date," Furman said.
About 20 people participated in each round of the game.
"I came to find some beautiful Jewish studettes," Rappaport said.
Mike Rappaport, Minneapolis freshman, eagerly awaited his turn to play in the game.
Courtney Smith, Northfield,
Ill., freshman and R.J. Melman,
Winnetka, Ill., freshman, were
the winning participants. Smith
and Melman won dates to
Teller's, 746 Massachusetts St.
and a night out in Lawrence with
Zidel and Kapralr.
"The Hilill Foundation sponsored the date." Cohn said.
Amy Ravis, Singled Out cochairwoman and Overland Park junior, said she was pleased with the event.
"I was really happy with the turnout, it was a great time and I appreciate everyone who came," she said.
"Everyone was welcome to come," Cohn said. "We advertised for the event, and we also went to houses to talk about it."
Hemenway supports humanities endeavors
By Emily C. Forsyth
eforsyth@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Chancellor Robert Hemenway had a difficult time deciding on a title for the speech that he delivered to about 500 students, faculty and staff at the Lied Center last night.
"Your title sticks with you," Hemenway said. "You see it on posters. You're asked about it at cocktail parties."
Hemenway's lecture was the final installment in this year's Humanities Lecture
Series, sponsored by the Hall Center for the Humanities. This is the 50th anniversary of the lecture series.
Hemenway said that the humanities had come under public scrutiny in recent years and that the public's perception of the humanities led to political response. He said that part of the problem stemmed from vague definitions.
He said that misconceptions could be resolved if professors and those who believed in the value of studying the humanities explained their views.
"The way the humanities have been defined leads inexorably away from the public and toward the University," Hemenway said. "The humanities today are being debated in the public arena as never before."
Hemenway also said that the steady increase of women and minorities attending universities had led to a dramatic change in the social construction of the University and its curriculum.
"It is inevitable that the curriculum will to some degree reflect these demographic shifts." Hemenway said. "Curriculum reform has been part of the American university since the beginning, and we need not
fear it."
Following his lecture, Hemenway responded to several questions raised by the audience.
Barbara Schowen, director of the University Honor Programs, asked Hemenway what advice she should offer students who inquired about the future job market.
"Tell them 'Don't worry about it.' Hemenway said. "English majors always land on their feet."
Hemenway said that a good education would produce autonomy.
Jennifer Jones, Manchester, Mo., freshman, said that she was considering changing her major from
engineering and found Hemenway's advice encouraging.
"English majors don't work at McDonald's," Jones said. "They end up doing well."
Iris Smith, associate professor of English, said that the topics the chancellor addressed were relevant not only here at the University but also nationwide.
"I thought it was a very timely speech," Smith said. "We're at a crucial juncture for universities in regard to the future of the humanities. I'm delighted that Chancellor Hemenway is such a strong advocate for the humanities."
U.S. Senate urged to endorse anti-nuclear treaty
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The Clinton administration urged the Senate to ratify a treaty banning all nuclear weapons tests by the fall or risk losing a role in trying to prod India, Pakistan and North Korea into signing the accord.
Declaring that the United States can rely on simulated tests for the American nuclear program, Undersecretary of State John Holum said the Senate has a historic opportunity to make it harder for non-nuclear nations to develop the weapons.
Even with several treaties to cut nuclear and chemical weapons arsenals, the threat of an
"Without testing, it's an insurmountable barrier." Holum told reporters as the State Department marked the 10th anniversary of a direct link between Washington and Moscow to alert each other to provocative moves that could jangle nuclear nerves.
attack is graver today because weapons are cheaper to make and are more portable, said Deputy Secretary Strobe Talbott.
Last year, 15,000 messages were exchanged
The Comprehensive Test Ban treaty has been signed by 149 countries and ratified by 13. The latest were Britain and France, the first nuclear powers to ratify the ban on all nuclear weapons test explosions.
For the treaty to take force,44 countries identified as having a nuclear
capability must ratify it. The United States has not, while three of the countries, India, Pakistan and North Korea, have not even signed the accord.
Holum said that polls indicated that only 13 percent of the American public opposed a ban on nuclear weapons tests and that the administration had the votes in the Senate for ratification if the Foreign Relations Committee were to act on the treaty.
If there is delay past the fall, when the Senate is due
to recess for the year, the United States may be unable to participate in a conference in the fall of 1999 that would consider ways to prod India, Pakistan and North Korea into signing the treaty, Holum said.
Without Senate ratification, it will be difficult for the United States to keep insisting that Iraq cooperate with U.N. inspectors who are looking for evidence of nuclear, chemical and biological weapons programs.

ALBUQUERQUE JOURNAL

When legitimate complaints about instructors arise, know where to go
Students with complaints about a teaching assistant or professor should stop moaning about it to their friends and file official complaints.
It is discouraging to be in class with a professor who is hard to understand, won't work with students outside of class, doesn't hand back tests or simply is a bad teacher.
But even more discouraging is when students don't know how or where to register legitimate complaints.
There are two important places to voice complaints against professors and teaching assistants or raise concerns about a department.
The first place is the department itself. If there is a problem with a business professor or assistant, go to the business department. The same goes
for Spanish, journalism, engineering and every other department on campus. Each department has an established complaint system for students with concerns and problems. Students should use these systems.
If students are patient, these departments usually are willing to work with them. The departments, as much as students, want things to run smoothly.
However, if the department does not adequately solve the problem, there is help elsewhere.
One of the more underutilized resources for students is the University Ombudsman Professor Robert Shelton. Shelton's job is to facilitate communication when conflicts arise between students, staff, faculty, and administrators.
Shelton, whose office is in 104 Smith Hall, is impartial, independent and confidential. It is his job to register complaints and try and work them out.
He hears complaints and concerns, conducts investigations, searches for solutions and provides information on a variety of campus procedures and policies.
This doesn't mean students should run to the ombudsman with small complaints. Students who didn't like a grade on a test or want a paper date moved shouldn't waste Shelton's time. But if there is a serious problem with a professor, teaching assistant or department, then go to Shelton.
He is an important resource that more students should use. If they did, students might be a little less discouraged.

Math instructors need better training
In math classes ranging from 002 to 123, students must seek guidance from teaching assistants who cannot communicate mathematics effectively. Whether there is a language barrier or merely an inability to convey knowledge, students have difficulty getting the desired assistance from their instructors. The department of mathematics should create a more rigorous selection process and change this.
Jack Porter, professor of mathematics, said that of the 55 assistants hired by the University of Kansas, almost half are international students with English as their second language. To be hired as graduate teaching assistants, these students must receive a score of 600 out of 670 on the Teaching English as a Foreign Language exam and score a 50 or
better on the Spoken English Education Test. They then undergo an interview process in which each individual from a three-person committee calls the applicants by telephone to test their oral English proficiency.
However, for group leaders, or undergraduate teaching assistants, the University requires that international applicants pass oral and written exams, receive a grade of A or B in two semesters of calculus and submit two teacher recommendation letters.
Despite these efforts to create good instructors, many students still are frustrated. Some TAs impede students' abilities to learn by failing to effectively communicate the information. They may not speak English well enough for students to understand already complex subjects, or they simply may not be able to explain the material sufficiently. This is inexcusable.
Because most applicants have no background in education, both GTAs and group leaders go to prepatory seminars that teach different approaches to tutoring, how to handle problems in the classroom and ways to explain difficult concepts. These seminars are held
before the semester begins and, for group leaders and first-year GTAs, the instruction continues in weekly meetings during the semester.
The department of mathematics should look for ways to enhance its hiring process for TAs. To insure students', and ultimately the department's, success, the department should implement stricter, more rigorous hiring processes.

It's 7:30 Saturday morning, and I should feel privileged to view the start of a beautiful day. But I didn't tumble out of bed with a heavy head, waste my only chance of the week to sleep in and drive to the soccer complex to see the sun rise. I'm a referee supervisor for the Kaw Valley Soccer Association, a league for children ages 6 through 16.
Dave Morantz
dmorantz@kansan.com
I with parents whose soccer knowledge only extends to Pele, yet they scream at
every foul call and sometimes try to physically assault other parents.
This morning I will have to tell at least one, probably more, teary-eyed child that he can't play because his cleats are too long and are not covered by the league's insurance policy. His father will plead with me to let it slide just this once while his son huzs his lee asking why he can't play.
I'll have to an 11-year-old girl that she can't enter the field unless she takes out her earrings.
"But her ears were just pierced yesterday," her mother will cry. Tough, those are the rules.
Nothing is more pleasing than to watch 7 and 8-year-olds who have no idea how to play soccer but just enjoy running around the field, bumping into each other, falling down, laughing, standing up and doing it again.
As the first minivan enters the gravel parking lot. I curse myself for keeping this job.
Even more pleasing is teaching young children simple skills, like kicking the ball, or asking two players who just engaged in a hair-pulling contest to shake hands and say they're sorry.
And I'll have teach a new batch of teen-aged referees how to keep control of a soccer game and not let it digress to a slug fest.
On a normal Saturday I'll sit and wait for something to go wrong. But occasionally not enough referees will show up, forcing one of the supervisors to officiate a game. Each morning I pray that happens.
On such a Saturday, I remember that I too once ran aimlessly around a field covered with dew. I remember the simple joy of digging my teeth and lips into a slice of orange at half time and the powerful thrill of scoring a goal or winning a big game.
If a field opens up and I am needed to ret a game, I'll jump at the chance. It will remind me why I've kept this job another season. More importantly, it will remind me of the joys of my childhood. And maybe for an instant I will feel like a young child, oblivious to problems and thankful to run without a care in the world.
This is my fifth season with the soccer league and my third season as one of three supervisors.
A referee rarely receives any positive comments from coaches, players or parents. But a referee supervisor receives even less gratitude. Hardly a "thanks" for checking the fields each morning, assigning referees to fields and digging through the lost and found to find a jersey for a seven-year-old player who wore the wrong color shirt that day.
Despite the good pay, it's a thankless job.

Columnist ventures to party in search of inspiration
I was sitting in my room chanting "Live from New York it's Saturday Night" and preparing for my weekly column writing ritual (stage one includes both the words rolling and rock). Suddenly, overwhelming panic
denly, overwhelming panic struck me.
I was officially out of material.
A.
Nick Bartkoski opinion @ kansan.com
I knew this day was coming soon. I only have three jokes, and I reuse them until people catch on. After people figure out that they've already heard all my material several times, I can either go find other people to ply with my jokes, or I can kill those that figured me out (note to self: check if justifiable homicide laws would allow me to slaughter 13,500 people).
I had hoped that my material would at least let me struggle on to the end of the year, but more angry messages poured in every week. Oddly enough, what could have been my greatest defeat — being told by the Letterman people that they wouldn't even let me work for them for free — was the one thing that let my column limp along for another couple of weeks. The event gave me a brief fourth joke: This kind of crap won't get you published in the Harvard Lampoon. But finally, the mine was empty.
Finally realizing that I wasn't going to get my column written, I decided to just give up. With all of this newfound time on my hands, I decided to go ahead and make an appearance at a scholarship hall event. As a general rule, I skip these events, but this one was a little different. Saturday was the scholarship halls' semi-formal, along with an after-party at one of the halls. I didn't have any need to go to the semi-formal — I had gone to plenty of dances without a date — but I had never attended an after-party, and I decided that I was intrigued enough to check it out.
It wasn't long after I came to that shocking revelation that I realized that this Saturday marked the 175th consecutive weekend I stayed locked in my room rather than actually going out and doing something. But I couldn't be bothered with that. I had to figure out why I couldn't come up with a good real world experience to write about.
I just had one problem — my "Nick" costume was in the wash.
For those of you that haven't seen me as I cross campus, my "Nick" costume is jeans, a t-shirt, and this black hooded sweatshirt with a zipper that can make我 look like the evil emperor from Star Wars—only less fear-inducing. The one part of my costume that wasn't in the laundry was my bemused smirk.
With my first team in the laundry, I had to get quickly creative with clothes that I hadn't worn lately. I ended up putting on some shorts, a baggy blue hooded sweatshirt, and a hat that I wore backward. I looked like I was selling weed or something.
When I made it to this party, I vaguely remembered why I don't attend these things. The "party" consisted of an unlented room with a few snacks and music so people could dance. In theory, that's not too bad, but the music was a mix tape compiled by people going door-to-door in the hall and asking for the worst song the residents' owned.
My other problem is that I didn't have any Opinion page groupships proposition me at the party. In fact, I've never had a groupie proposition me. I don't get that. This is a nation obsessed with celebrities, and every celebrity, he be as lame as Peter Tork, has groups. My career at The University Daily Kansan is a hundredfold better than where Tork is today, but he's swimming in groups, and I've got nothing. Where's the justice?
In addition to the groupie issue, only one person recognized me as a columnist. Sure I'm kind of exclusive, but it's not as if seeing me is like a Bigfoot sighting — it's more like the Loch Ness Monster.
As I finally left, my mind raced to come up with a way to parlay the experience into a column, but I decided it was worthless. I mean, that kind of crap won't get you published in the Harvard Lampon.
Just to make a full night of it, I decided to be the absolute last person to leave. I had time. The signs said the party would run from 1 a.m. until when骤, so I figured that it wasn't "w whenever" until I said it was "whenever." However, when I tried to assert that right, I quickly learned that the hall's director considered "whenever" to be another name for 4 a.m.

GTA semester limit will hurt University
Students might get the impression from all of the publicity generated concerning teaching awards that KU administrators really care about good teaching. It is好 to see that Provost David Shulenburger has set the record straight. Consider a department faced with the choice of hiring a good graduate teaching assistant who already has taught 10 semesters or a poorer teacher with less teaching experience. Provost Shulenburger's 10 semester GTA policy forces the department to hire the poorer teacher. Such is the University of Kansas commitment

to teaching excellence.
Kansan should stop attacking smokers
Secondly, it is interesting to
I would like to point out three things in regard to the article in The University Daily Kansan on Thursday about smoking.
Given that Amy Rush's source on the number of lung cancer deaths in the non-smoking population is EPA, it is more likely that these should be attributed to the millions of tons of toxic chemicals spewed into the air by industry and cars, rather than to an insignificant amount of secondhand smoke.
note that the Kansan lately has reported on the abundance of cigarette butts on campus, but ashtrays on campus are invariably located next to the doors of buildings. So what is right? Should a smoker avoid the ashtray and smoke where there is nowhere to deposit the remains, or smoke next to the doors?
Finally, the majority of smokers are addicts, hooked in their early teen years, by a corrupt industry that aimed advertising directly at them. Is it not enough that these people are unable to stop a thing that most likely will kill them, or does the Kansan find it necessary to harass them as well?

Stalking victims can find help
By Ronnie Wachter wachter@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Some University of Kansas students consider the term "stalking" to be the pursuit of a potential romantic interest.
But Lawrence police officers have a more serious view of stalking and the effects it can have on KU students.
"The crime itself is usually a weak felony," Lawrence police officer Tom Moore said. "But these things can escalate into bigger crimes. I think one of the things that's most traumatic for the victims is the mental anguish it can cause."
Nancy Williams, director of fund raising and community affairs for Women's Transitional Care Services, said that anyone who thought they were being stalked should take action to avoid any trauma or danger.
"My advice is that if a woman is being stalked or followed in any form, she should call our crisis hotline or at least make a report with the police," she said.
Williams said that many stalking incidents were the result of broken relationships, especially couples who previously had lived together.
If people think that they are being stalked by someone they used to live with, there are special actions they can take to protect themselves, she said.
"They can file a Protection From Abuse order with the police or the district attorney's office, if they've lived together," she said. "That will give you a temporary restraining order against the person you believe is stalking you. That goes into effect immediately." she said.
After the victim has been given the order, a district court judge will hear the victim's case within 72 hours. Williams said. At the hearing, the judge will decide if the victim needs a longer restraining order against the alleged stalker, she said.
But William is said that if a person was being stalked by someone with whom she has not lived, the law did not offer as much protection.
"If it's a person out of the blue, I hate to say it, but she doesn't have many options." Williams said. "There isn't much the police can do."
Moore said that the Lawrence Police Department conducted safety courses six to 12 times each year for groups of women who requested them.
"That's something we like to do, to help people know what to do if they feel they are in a dangerous situation," he said. "We have a couple of female officers at those to help demonstrate safety techniques."
Students who need help may call the Women's Transitional Care hot line at 843-3:33.
KANSAS STATUTE 21-3438
Stalking is an intentional, malicious and repeated following or harassment of another person and making a credible threat with the intent to place such a person in reasonable fear for such person's safety.
Tips recommended by police if you think you're being stalked.
When shopping:
Be aware of your surrounding when parking, stay in well-lit areas close to the entrances.
Be leery of people in vehicles who are simply watching the parking lots-they could be watching for a victim
While walking to and from parking lots into stores, be conscious of your surroundings and what is going on. Make it a point to speak to people you see because they'll remember you. Criminals are less likely to bother someone who is observant because criminals don't want to be remembered.
If shopping carts are available use them. They not only can be used as a barrier between you and an aggressor, but also will allow you to keep your hands free.
When traveling:
■ When you are driving in town, keep a window cracked slightly. This is not only refreshing but also allows you to hear what is going on around you.
When At Home:
When traveling alone and staying at motels or hotels, ask for all keys to the room when you check in. Let attendant know that no one will be joining you later.
Keep shrubs and trees trimmed so they don't obscure entrances and window. These are prime hiding places for criminals.
If you have been away notice anything different about your residence when you return: lights on, doors open, gates open, etc. Go to a neighbor's home and call police. DO NOT GO INSIDE
If you notice someone follows you while you are returning home, don't go home; drive to the nearest open business, fire department, police station, etc. and go inside.

Kansas staff writer
Keith Ashman isn't your ordinary punk rocker. When the stage lights dim and the sun comes up, Ashman switches back to his role as astrophysicist and teacher.
Ashman, the front man for the punk band The Switch, also is an adjunct professor of physics and astronomy doing research at the University of Kansas and serves as a part-time instructor at Baker University. Ashman also writes fiction, is working on a novel and loves baseball and gardening. Ashman says people have the mistaken notion that scientists are unartistic.
"The public image is that we're all cold and analytical." Ashman said. "Often the public misses the creativity involved in doing research."
Ashman said that trying to come up with a new idea in theoretical physics was like trying to write a new song. Both begin with blank pieces of paper.
"In many ways, they are similar," Ashman said. "Both require a certain amount of creativity."
Ashman, who won a departmental award for teaching at the University, said the same applied to teaching.
"You have to be creative in presenting information in such a way that students want to learn about it," Ashman said.
Hailing from a blue-collar section of London, Ashman said his deep British accent usually kept the class's interest for about two weeks. After that, he said, he had to find other ways of keeping the class tuned in. He often resorted to saying and doing outlandish things.
"I ifhaven't thrown at least one thing a day in my mechanics class, then I am
having a bad day," Ashman said.
John Paden, Baldwin senior, took two classes with Ashman when Ashman was teaching at the University of Kansas. He said that Ashman's approachability and wit made him an effective teacher.
effective teacher.
"One of the good points about Dr. Ashman was his humor," Paden said. "He was never dry."
9dtSwitch
Students also find his personal hobbies interesting.
"A lot of students thought it was quite a trip to be learning from me about modern physics at 2:30 on a Friday afternoon and at 11:30 that night be at the Bottleneck listening to me play music," Ashman said.
Colleagues in physics and astronomy don't seem to mind either, said Bruce Twarog, professor of physics and astronomy.
"He is judged, within the department.
on the basis of the quality of the work he does, which is excellent," Twarog said.
Ashman's research centers on star systems called globular clusters and the role they play in forming galaxies.
Globular clusters are extremely old, massive groups of stars that condensed with the forming of galaxies and serve as a sort of fossil record, he said.
Ashman uses the Hubble Space Telescope to do his research. It's one of the benefits of being a astrophysicist, Ashman said.
"Physicists don't get paid a lot of money," he said, "but you do get to play with $2.5 billion telescopes."
Ashman's most important work using Hubble was to support his theory that elliptical galaxies were formed by spiral galaxies slamming together.
However, teaching is the most influential work he does, Ashman said.
"As a profession, I can't think of many things that are more important than helping members of society understand how the world around them works," he said.

Senate coalitions work toward cleaner, less wasteful University
By Graham K. Johnson gjohnson@kansan.com Kanson staff writer
Candidates for student government are not satisfied with the pace and scope of campus recycling.
ISSUE SUMMARY
Candidates from Campus Cause, Delta Force and independent
candidates have said that recycling was a chief concern in environmental issues. Both coalitions and Wendy Butler, independent Nunemaker candidate, said pushing the administration to expand and accelerate the University's recycling program was an important part of their agendas.
Kevin Yoder, Campus Cause presidential candidate, pointed to a nearly empty plastic-bottle recycling bin and said there had not been enough progress.
"Obviously, right now, recycling isn't happening to the level it should or could be." Yoder said
Yoder said his coalition wanted to continue efforts Senate had made in establishing and funding a comprehensive recycling board.
Yoder said the group's short-term
too save the goals would include working with the recycling program's administrators to provide help with staff and funding. The group's long-term goal is to push for a revenue-producing recycling center.

didate for a Nunemaker seat, said Delta Force also was concerned with the progress of the program.
"The recycling program has been started, but it's kind of small right now," Krebs said. "We want to stay on the administration's back to at
least expand it."
Wendy Butler, independent candidate for a Nunemaker seat, said her main environmental concern was recycling
"I feel like we need more recycling bins, especially for plastic bottles," Butler said.
Butler said she would push to have recycling bins installed in high-traffic areas instead of just inside buildings.

Dunbar: Platform includes recycling, waste reduction.
Vice President, director of the Office of Resource Conservation and Recycling, said it was important for students and candidates to realize that the program was in its infancy, and she urged patience and feedback about how the program could be made better.
"Rather than being critical of the program, I would welcome any positive feedback," Silva said.
Matt Dunbar, Delta Force candidate for student body vice president, said the coalition's agenda regarding the environment went beyond recycling.
"Recycling is a good first step," Dunbar said, "but it is only a beginning."
Dunbar said Delta Force also would encourage waste reduction, such as using reusable mugs, recycling and encouraging the use of alternative transportation, particularly the implementation of bicycle lanes on campus and in Lawrence.
Julie Nurrich, Campus Cause candidate for a College of Liberal Arts and Sciences seat, said recycling was Campus Cause' main environmental issue.
"The recycling issue is our main one because it's the biggest issue facing the campus right now," Numrich said. "But that doesn't mean we don't care about other issues."
Coalitions seek fewer tickets, more rides

Alleviating parking problems on campus is being billed as a top priority in this year's Student Senate elections.
ISSUE SUNNY SNAP
SPOTLIGHT
Coalitions say that for the money students pay to park close to
their classes, the difficulty in locating a space needs to be resolved.
The Campus Cause coalition surveyed students about what they wanted from Student Senate. Out of 523 surveys, 70 percent listed parking in the top five.
"Coming from off campus, parking has been a big problem," said Matt McGuire, off-campus candidate with Campus Cause. "The sell almost
12,000 parking permits, and there are only 9,000 spots.
McGuire said that Campus Cause was working with the parking department to implement a program that would utilize the 1,028 spaces at the Lied Center to alleviate parking congestion.
The plan would include a bus that would shuttle students from the Lied Center to campus every five to seven minutes during peak hours. Those hours would include 7 to 10 a.m. and 4 to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday.
"The Lied Center has a big parking lot that's not being utilized during the day." McGuire said.
Don Kearns, parking director, said he was in favor of a plan that would allow easier campus access to students who did not live on bus routes.
"With all of the apartment complexes being built so far away from
campus, no transportation system will ever go out that far," Kearns said.
"Our big thing is trying to reduce the need for parking on campus," he said.
"I mean, I don't personally have to drive to campus everyday."
Jason Thompson, Nunemaker candidate for Delta Force coalition, said that he was in favor of the park-and-ride program at the Lied Center, but said that his coalition encouraged students to find alternative transportation.
Thompson said that Delta Force would work to make Lawrence a more bicycle-friendly city and that more students could ride bicycles rather than driving every day.
Thompson and other Delta Force members expressed concerns about how political the parking issue had become. Thompson said that Scott Kaiser, transportation coordinator and Cause Cause vice-presidential

candidate, earlier this year denounced the park-and-ride program but now was supporting it.
"He basically put it down as infeasible until it was time to campaign for elections, and that really bothers me," Thompson said.
Wendy Butler, independent candidate for a Nunemaker seat, said she was concerned about faculty members parking in student lots without receiving tickets. But when students park in faculty parking spaces, they get ticketed, she said.
Coalitions propose technology changes

Kansan staff writer
The coalitions running for Student Senate are sparring about technology initiatives in their campaign platforms.
Campus Cause is asking for an expedited implementation of online enrollment while Delta Force is asking for e-mail klosks placed at convenient locations on campus.
In a recent survey of more than 1,000 KU students, a convenient online enrollment process was among students' top demands, said Scott Kaiser, Campus Cause candidate for student body vice president
"This is a problem that affects every single KU student," Kaiser said. "It's a campus-wide issue."
But Dunbar said that providing online enrollment was already a priority of the administration.
Delta Force does not contest the importance of online enrollment, said Matt Dunbar, Delta Force candidate for student body vice president.
Kaiser disagreed. He said that the administration repeatedly had promised online enrollment during the past 10 years.
"This relates to a lot of the issues that Campus Cause is running on." Dunbar said. "These are things that are already happening. It's easy to fight a battle that's already been won."
Kaiser said a Campus Cause Sense would act as a watchdog to ensure that the University administration lived up to its promise.
"We're giving this more than lip service," Kaiser said. "We're giving this action, and we have a plan."
University Registrar Richard Morrell said that online enrollment would be a reality in the next few years. Last fall the University of Kansas purchased PeopleSoft Student Administration, a software package that can provide online enrollment.
"I share the concern that the students have—that the faster we are able to use this product, the better off we will be," Morrell said.
He said that his goal was to implement online enrollment properly rather than too quickly.
ISSUE STUDENT SENATE
"People walking through there could grab a bite to eat and check their e-mail." Dunbar said.
Delta Force's main technology initiative is the installation of e-mail kiosks in places such as the Kansas Union.
He said that if students had access to kiosks, fewer people would have to check e-mail in campus computer labs, freeing equipment in those labs for other purposes.
Earlier this spring, Delta Force representatives approached the administration about this idea. Dunbar said the response was positive.
Jerry Niebaum, director of academic computing services, confirmed that his department was investigating the idea. Niebaum said that some kliosks could be in place by the end of the year.
The administration and Delta Force disagree on what type of equipment to use for the klosks.
"New systems have a three-year warranty, a real plus for cost savings," Niebaum said.
Dunbar said that Delta Force proposed using recycled computers. Niebaum said the University might buy new equipment.
But Kaiser wondered if students really want their money spent on email terminals. He said Delta Force had not surveyed anyone to find out if there was a demand.
Other Senate candidates also are promoting their own initiatives.
Frank Louis, Campus Cause Sena candidate for the School of Architecture and Urban Design, said that he wanted a copier that was available 24 hours a day for architecture students.
Erika Nutt, Delta Force Senate candidate for the School of Social Welfare, said that she would ask for more computers for the School of Social Welfare.

Tests show that trucks are not all like a rock
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON—In television commercials, pickup trucks look indestructible, so much so that one automaker brags they're like a rock. But back them into a loading dock or bump them into another vehicle, and it can be a different story.
An insurance-industry study released yesterday found that some popular small pickups racked up sizeable repair bills in crash tests at just 5 mph. Leading the way was the Toyota Tacoma, which sustained $4,361 in damage in four low-speed tests.
The best of the lot, the Chevrolet L-10 LS, had $2,246 in damage. The other trucks tested by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety were the Ford Ranger XLT ($2,952 in total damages), the Dodge Dakota Sport ($3,863) and the Nissan Frontier XE ($3,867).
The institute, which is sponsored by the insurance industry, said the trucks sustained the damage because most are equipped with rigid bumpers. By contrast, cars have bumpers that contain energy-absorbing materials such as foam.
"People may think that pickup trucks are tough. But they quickly find out this isn't true when they bump into something at a slow speed and then have to shell out thousands of dollars to repair the damage," said Adrian Lund, the institute's senior vice president.
Truck makers took issue with the test results, as well as the group conducting them.
"The Tacoma meets all the general requirements for crash worthiness," said Julie Alfonso, spokeswoman for Toyota Motor Sales USA Inc. Last year the company sold 145,911 Tacomas, little brothers to the full-size T-100 pickups.
In its tests, the institute drove the trucks four ways: forward and backward into a flat barrier, forward into an angled barrier and backward into a pole.
Even at 5 mph, the lack of energy-absorbing bumper materials led to crash damage on the sheet metal of the Nissan and the Toyota during the forward-impact tests. In tests of the Toyota and the Dodge, the cargo beds on the trucks slammed into the passenger compartment when the vehicles were backed into the barrier.
El Niño leaves winter weather warmer and wetter than before
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Because of El Niño, the first two months of 1998 were the warmest and wettest in 104 years, providing a taste of what might be expected if global warming predictions come true, the chief of the government's climate research agency said yesterday.
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration issued a report saying what many people in rain-drenched California and across much of the country already suspected: There has been too much rain, and for most of the eastern part of the country, winter never arrived.
But the agency provided some details about what climatologists have called one of the major climatic events of this century
the El Niño-driven winter of 198.
In January and February, the national average U.S. temperature was 37.5 degrees Fahrenheit, 5.4 degrees higher than normal and the highest since the government began keeping records 104 years ago. Sixteen states reported record average temperatures.
The two months also saw an average rainfall of 6.01 inches, or about 50 percent more than the normal average of 4.05 inches. Precipitation records were set across the Southeast, in Oklahoma and in California. The relationship between the El Nine now
The relationship between duced weather patterns and long-term climate change is not clear, said the report. But it said the December-February weather patterns were unusual even when viewed as part of a 100-year climate history. The report said it also followed a general trend of warmer temperatures.
projections panned out as some climate models predicted.
"We can't draw a causal link between El Niño and global warming," said Baker. "But our modeling tells us that global warming may first manifest itself in
"This record-breaking El Niño is consistent with a worldwide trend over the last 40 years toward a warmer and wetter world," said Commerce Undersecretary James Baker, administration chief and professional oceanographer.
"We can't draw a casual link between El Niño and global warming."
He called the winter of 1998 a possible window on the future if overall warming

changes in weather patterns. This El Niño is a taste of what we might expect if the earth warms as we now project."
From December through March, the report found, some California coastal areas and the Sierra Mountains
got up to 6 feet of rain, while parts of Florida and the Appalachian region saw up to 3 feet of rain.
The overall winter — December through February — was the second warmest and seventh wettest on record. The 1991-92 winter was slightly warmer, and the winter of 1932 was wetter.
The warm weather produced the lowest
amount of snowfall ever recorded in a dozen cities in the Midwest and East, including only 1.8 inches in normally snowbound Buffalo, N.Y., according to the report.
Ironically, El Niño brought unusually dry conditions in two states — Hawaii and Alaska. Hawaii got one-fourth of its normal rainfall. Alaska had less snow and warmer weather than usual, with Juneau recording the second-warmest February on record.
Many scientists believe the continued growth of manmade greenhouse chemicals in the atmosphere, mainly carbon dioxide from burning fossil fuels, will cause a significant warming of the earth and major climate changes.
But some skeptics of global warming argue that current computer models cannot fully explain the impact of ocean currents, clouds and other factors that may mitigate the warming process.
Industrial countries, including the United States, agreed at a December climate conference in Kyoto, Japan, to slow the flow of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere as a first step to deal with the potential threat.
Proper foods provide needed vitamins
Nutrient excesses or deficiencies cause problems
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Americans are getting most of the B vitamins they need in the average diet, but women who might become pregnant should eat specially fortified foods or take vitamin supplements, says a nutrition report.
To ensure against birth defects, women of childbearing age need an extra 400 micrograms of folic acid every day, either in a vitamin supplement or in fortified breakfast cereals, grains and other foods, the Institute of Medicine said yesterday.
That is in addition to the folate-rich diet all Americans should eat, full of citrus fruits, beans and dark green, leafy vegetables, the institute said.
"In a country where the top two vegetables are french fries and iceberg lettuce, people need to make better food choices," said Chris Rosenbloom, a Georgia State University nutrition professor representing the American Dietetic Association.
The Institute of Medicine, a private organization that advises the federal government, is reviewing the nation's recommended daily allowances, or RDAs, for nutrients.
Its review of complex B vitamins, including folic acid, B-12, B-6 thiamine, riboflavin and niacin, found good news: Most Americans get plenty, particularly since many B vitamins are in fortified cereals and grain products that are dietary staples.
But the institute's expert panel cautioned against popping huge doses. There is not enough evidence that large amounts protect against heart disease or cancer to urge big increases in Americans' diets, the institute said. And they recommended the first maximum doses for four nutrients to protect against side effects.
The report said that before this year, many Americans did not eat enough folate, a trace
nutrient important for cell production also called folic acid.
But starting in January, extra synthetic folic acid was added to all fortified cereals and grain products. Most adults now will get enough, said institute expert Barry Shane of the University of California at Berkeley.
Women who may become pregnant still are at risk. Folic acid, particularly in very early pregnancy, helps prevent certain brain and spinal birth defects that afflict about 2,500 babies a year.
So those women must eat an extra 400 micrograms of synthetic folic acid on top of a folaterich diet, the institute said, by taking a daily vitamin or eating lots of fortified foods.
Doctors have long warned pregnant women about folic acid, but yesterday's report stressed that the synthetic type, in addition to the kind from spinach and oranges, was vital because it was absorbed twice as well and that the newly fortified cereals were a good source.
Some breakfast cereals provide 400 micrograms of folic acid in a single bowl. Other folate options include: a half-cup of spinach provides 130 micrograms; a half-cup of navy
beans 125; a sandwich 80; a cup of orange juice 45; and one ounce of peanuts 30.
As for vitamin B-12, people need 2.4 micrograms a day, the amount in three ounces of beef. But up to 30 percent of Americans older than 50 cannot absorb the vitamin from regular food, so the institute recommended they eat fortified foods or take a vitamin supplement.
The institute also recommended upper limits of four nutrients:
No more than 100 milligrams of vitamin B. Higher doses can cause painful nerve disorders.
No more than 1,000 micrograms, or 1 miligram, of folic acid. People who are deficient in vitamin B-12 can suffer crippling neurologic damage if they take high doses of folic acid.
No more than 35 milligrams of niacin, a little more than twice the daily recommended dose. The higher doses cause blood vessels to dilate.
No more than 3.5 grams a day of choline, a related nutrient important for maintaining cell membranes. Higher doses can cause low blood pressure, sweating and a fishy body odor.
Observatory finds more water in space
Discovery reveals possibility for life on moons, planets
The Associated Press
LONDON — Orbiting high above Earth, Europe's infrared space observatory has discovered water around stars, planets and in many other surprising places, raising expectations of life elsewhere in the universe, the European Space Agency said yesterday.
The discovery of water vapor in the atmosphere of Saturn's largest moon, Titan, has generated the most excitement because that moon may duplicate the conditions that led to the creation of life on Earth, said Roger Bonnet, the agency's director of science.
"Now that water has been discovered ... this lends more support to the possibility that we
have all the conditions which prevailed on Earth 4.5 billion years ago to give birth to life," he said. "These conditions may also exist on Titan, and the only thing you need is a little heat to heat up Titan."
For two and a half years, the European Space Agency's Infrared Space Observatory, known as ISO, has been exploring the universe at wavelengths that can't be seen with the human eye, giving astronomers a new view of the solar system.
Astronomers have been able to see water throughout the universe, to see where stars are forming, to shed light on distant galaxies and to solve riddles that have puzzled astronomers for centuries, said Reinhard Genzel, chairman of the agency's Astronomy Working Group.
"With ISO, for the first time, you could see water." Genzel said at a news conference yesterday. "In fact, it has been a spectacular vista to see water everywhere."
The observatory found water around dying stars, around newborn stars, in interstellar space, in other galaxies and in the atmospheres
around Mars and all the outer planets, particularly the Titan moon, Genzel said.
"Now you may say, 'So what?' Well, that's actually quite surprising because it's so cold out there. So, water should normally freeze out. So, the fact that there is water in these atmospheres is really rather remarkable," he said.
Genzel said the explanation probably had to do with the fact that something in space was bringing water to the icy outer planets all the time — possibly comets.
"And that is important because maybe that's the way water came on Earth in the early part of the solar system when there were many more comets around, and the Earth was bombarded by these icy objects, bringing in water," he said.
Athena Cousenist of the Paris Observatory said scientists knew Titan's atmosphere contained carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide, so they expected water vapor too.
The U.S. space agency's planetary explorer Cassini, which was launched in October, promises the best look yet at Saturn and its icy
moons
When the plutonium-powered spacecraft arrives at Saturn in 2004 after a 2.2 billion-mile journey, it will release the Huygens probe, built by the European Space Agency, which will land on Titan.
"After ISO, the Huygens probe will reveal the actual degree of complexity in a mixture of elaborate organic molecules, closely resembling the chemical soup of the young Earth," Coustenis said.
Last month, American scientists reported that closer-than-ever pictures of Jupiter's moon Europa showed a 16-mile-wide crater that may have been filled with water and large frozen plates.
The photos, taken in December by the spacecraft Galileo, bolstered the theory that an ocean that possibly could contain life existed beneath Europa's icy crust, scientists said.
With the European infrared telescope, Genzeli said, scientists also unexpectedly discovered remarkably high concentrations of water around young stars in the Orion constellation.

Kansas hurting for forwards, bench players
By Tommy Gallagher
tgallagher@kansan.com
Kansan sportwriter
When Paul Pierce announced that he would enter the NBA Draft last week, finding a small forward who could play immediately quickly became a priority for Kansas coaches.
Nick Bradford, who shot only 13.3 percent (2-for-15) from threepoint range this season, could start for the Jayhawks next season. But unless the Jayhawks sign a small forward during the late signing period, which begins today and lasts four weeks, Kansas could have no true backup at the position.
Coach Roy Williams said the loss of Pierce would not change whom Kansas coaches recruited
"If a kid were to decide in September that he's going to go pro after that season, then you can do something in recruiting," Williams said. "But a huge, huge majority of players have already made decisions on where to play."
Indeed
Kansas unsuccessfully recruited a bevy of small forwards during the early signing period, including JaRon Rush (UCLA), Quentin Richardson (DePaul), Michael Miller (Florida) and Tayshua Prince (Kentucky), all of whom were McDonald's All-Americans.
Johnson visited Xavier last weekend, and he also scheduled visits to Florida State and Kansas later this month, according to Hoop Scoop, a college basketball recruiting publication.
The Jayhawks' best prospects to provide a scoring punch that would replace Pierce include Rashard Lewis, a 6-foot 10 forward/center from Ailf Elsik (Texas) High School, and Ashante Johnson, a 6-9 forward from Canada (Calif.) Junior College.
Lewis, a McDonald's All-American, and Johnson both possess the skills of a post player combined with the finesse and shooting touch of a guard. Both could see action at small forward despite their tall height.
Another possibility could be Texas guard Luke Axtell, who visited Kansas last weekend. The 6-9 player has been granted a release from Texas, but Axtell has not determined whether he will stay.
And Chris Owens, a 6-6 guard from Tulane University, said he probably would transfer during the offseason. Owens, who is from Greg Ostertag's high school in Duncanville, Texas, listed UCLA and Kansas as his favorite.
The list of prospects who could provide some needed depth for the Jawhawk next season is long.

Inside, Kansas remains an option for Dan Gadzuric, a 6-11 center from Governor Dummer (Mass.) Academy. But Kansas fans should warn against being too optimistic about landing him.
Gadzuric told *Hoop Scoop* that should he not attend UCLA, he likely would enter the NBA Draft. But Gadzuric said that decision would depend upon his performance in the Magic, Johnson Roundball Classic.
In that game, Gadzuric was 5 for-8 from the floor. He recorded 10 points and a game-high 14 rebounds, and he restated after the game that UCLA remained the distant favorite.

By Laura Bokenkroger Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas softball team split a doubleheader yesterday against Oklahoma City, the NAIA defending national champions.
It was the Jayhawks' fourth consecutive split and the seventh in their last eleven doubleheaders.
"We just haven't been mentally sharp for both games in a double-header," coach Tracy Bungle said. "It frustrates me more than anything. I deal with physical mistakes much better than mental mistakes."
The Jayhawks scored first. Third baseman Sarah McCann scored on a single by shortstop Michelle Huber.
Oklahoma City jumped to a 3-1 lead in the second inning of the first game and held on to win 3-2.
But Oklahoma City exploded for three runs on four hits in the second inning and never trailed again.
The Jayhawks took advantage of an Oklahoma City error to pick up another run in the fourth innning, but the Chiefs won 3-2. Pitcher Jessi Kowal picked up the loss, dropping to 9-13 on the season.
The Jayhawks looked like a different team in the colder second game.
After changing uniforms from shorts to pants, the Jayhawks took the field. They fell behind in the second innet but trailed for only one inning.
In the bottom of the third inning, the Jayhawks scored four runs on four hits and took the lead 4-1.
Second baseman Lezli Leathersied off with a trip to center field, then
scored on a double by center fielder Julie True. McCann singled to left field, bringing True home for the 2-1 lead.
The Jayhawks had runners on second base and third base after left fielder Sara Holland singled and advanced to second on a throwing error.
The Chiefs wanted a forced out and intentionally walked Huber to load the bases with one out. But Chiefs pitcher Jennifer Mallon walked Kansas first baseman Shannon Stanwix, bringing McCann home.
Pitcher Christy McPhail picked up
an RBI with a hit to left field, which brought Holland across the plate for a 4-1 lead.
The Chiefs brought in Dolly Johnson to pitch in the top of the sixth inning, and she struck out three consecutive Jayhawks.
In the top of seventh inning, Johnson hit a solo home run over the left field fence and cut the lead 4-2. McPhail struck out the next two batters to secure the 4-2 victory for the Jayhawks.
"We lack intensity in the first games sometimes, and we fall behind and
never catch back up." Leathers said. "We find it in the second game."
The Jayhawks play Oklahoma and Oklahoma State this weekend in Lawrence.
"We need to cut down on the mistakes," Bunge said. "We made mental mistakes, like base-running mistakes, that took us out of run-producing situations, and we can't do that. Oklahoma and Oklahoma State make their share of mistakes defensively, but they pound the ball and just outscore their opponents."
Dimmick catches on to game nuances
By John Blakely Wilson
Kansan sportswriter
The lights go down after Kansas baseball games and most players hustle into the locker rooms, ready to get home after a long day at the diamond.
Josh Dimmick lies on the edge of the infield doing push-ups and sit-ups while the others rush off.
"It started out as a way to stay in shape during the season when we weren't lifting," Dimmick said. "I guess it has turned into a superstition."

Dimmick: Work ethic propelled him to clean-up hitter.
Dimmick starts the season with 20 sit-ups and push-ups each and adds one for each game. He will be up to 54 after the home game at 7
tonight against Kansas State.
His work ethic rocketed Dimmick from a positionless freshman who started just six games to Kansas' clean-up hitter and everyday catcher. He spent long days learning the nuances of catching and developing a powerful swing.
"It has been fulfilling to watch Josh grow from a young player into the leader on this team," Randall said. "The young players respect him for how hard he works."
Dimmick set his sights on being a college quarterback coming out of Wharton (Texas) High School, but the only Division I athletic scholarship offer came from the Kansas baseball team. He wanted to play at a high level of competition rather than chasing down small-school success on the gridiron.
Dimmick registered just 36 at-bats his
"It has been fulfilling to watch Josh grow from a young player into the leader on this team. The young players respect him for how hard he works."
Baseball head coach
As Dimmick progressed physically, he jumped into the everyday lineup. He emerged as the designated hitter in 1996 and then became the everyday catcher last season while putting up solid numbers, averaging about five home runs and 50 RBI each season.
Dimmick has continued to develop this season. He already has equaled his career home-run high with five and is on pace for about 80 RBI. Randall also said Dimmick called all the pitches last weekend at Baylor, a job usually reserved for the manager or pitching coach.
freshman year and struggled to a .222 average. He worked in the weight room daily and added 25 pounds of muscle to what has become a 6-foot-3-inch, 215-pound frame.
"He called intelligent games this weekend," Randall said. "We usually wouldn't put that kind of pressure on a player, but we trust his knowledge of the game."
Dimmick is a genetics major and has a 3.91 grade point average. He hopes for a future in baseball but also plans on a master's degree and medical school.
"Baseball doesn't come easy for him, but he invests so much into it," Randall said. "Josh is the kind of person you live to coach."

The 13th-ranked women's tennis team will play Nebraska at 3 p.m. today in Lincoln with a chance to extend its Big 12 record to 7-0.
Women's tennis team hopes to extend streak
The team, 14-2 overall, moved up two spots in this week's national rankings after defeating Oklahoma and Oklahoma State last weekend at Robinson Center.
Coach Roland Thornyqtist said the team hoped to win the next six and be 18-2 when it faces ninth-ranked Texas on April 19.
Kylie Hunt, the team's top singles player, is questionable for today's match. She missed last Sunday's competition because of an inflamed lung.
Hunt is expected to be back in action by this weekend. Today's men's match against Drake at Robinson Center was canceled by Drake. The men's tennis team jumped 27 spots in the rankings to 39th this week after losing a close one (4-3) to Colorado last weekend.

"Moving to the third spot looks like an improbability to me because of the asking price," Vermeil said. "We used a third, fourth (and seventh) last year to move from No. 6 to No. 1, and they want much, much more than that for us to move from 6 to 3.

Both the Bears and the Rams have their eyes on Florida State defensive Andre Wadsworth — as do the Cardinals.

Sugar Ray Leonard's Olympic coach dies
"When I think about Rolly Schwartz, I think of class," said Leonard, the retired world champion and one of five gold medalists on the team. "Rolly was class personified."
P
CINCINNATI — Rolly Schwartz, coach and manager of the 1976 U.S. Olympic boxing team who died yesterday, will be missed by the boxing community, Sugar Ray Leonard said.
弓
Schwartz, 84, died at the Hospice of Davton in Davton, Ohio.
In addition to Leonard, the gold medalist at Montreal were brothers Michael and Leon Spinks, Howard Davis and Leo Randolph.
"I was not only the coach, I was the jalier," Schwartz said. "I said it there with a baseball bat. I was only joking, but I told them that if anyone tried to get by me, I'd hit them in the head with it."
the rules of international amateur boxing during more than 50 years in the sport.
Schwartz also played a role in shaping
He helped establish a rule more than 20 years ago that required amateur boxers to wear protective headgear.
He had been associated with the sport since boxing as a youth in Chicago. Schwartz later moved to Cincinnati and helped establish amateur boxing clubs. He also coached boxing at Xavier.
Buddy LaRosa, who helped develop boxer Aaron Pryor, said Schwartz would be missed.
The Associated Press
"He motivated young men to excel," he said. "His death is a great loss to boxing, to greater Cincinnati and to the world of young men he will not have a chance to help."
"We are very optimistic about the interest expressed in the team," Herman said. "We have many more prospective bidders than the three that have come forward publicly."
Proposals requested from Royals bidders
Already announced as being interested in buying the team are groups led by Lamar Hunt, owner of the Kansas City Chiefs, New York attorney Miles Prentice and former Royals' star George Brett.
The board, along with investment banker J.P. Morgan, will use the non-binding bids to select final bidders for the American League team, which has been without an owner since the death of Ewing Kauffman in 1993.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Prospective bidders for the Kansas City Royals will be asked to submit non-binding preliminary proposals by the end of this month, team president Mike Herman said Tuesday.
Herman said that the board hoped to have a final agreement with the winning bidder by the All-Star break on July 7 and then submit the bidder for approval during the September meetings of the owners.

Track star opens batting season
Maurice Greene took the mound at Royals game
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The race is not always to the swift, and neither is success on the pitching mound, an admittedly nervous world-class spinner Maurice Greene found out at yesterday's home opener for the Kansas City Royals.
Greene, the Kansas City, Kan., native who recently set the indoor world record in the 60-meter run in Madrid, Spain, with a time of 6.39 seconds, threw the ceremonial first pitch before the Royals met the Baltimore Orioles.
"I think I just lost my pitching job," joked Greene, 23, after his throw to Royals catcher Mike MacFarlane bounced in front of the plate. "When I'm on the track, I'm not really that nervous. But my nervousness got to me today."
Greene, a bit disappointed by the results, obviously was excited by the chance to appear before the hometown crowd.
"Hey, that's me!" he exclaimed when
videos of a couple of his racing victories were shown on the giant screen next to the Kauffman Stadium scoreboard. In addition to his recent record at Madrid, Greene won the 100-meter event in the 1997 World Championships at Athens in 9.86 seconds, matching a World Championships record set by Carl Lewis.

"I was numb out there on the mound," said the delighted Turner, a

The capacity crowd at the Royals' 30th home opener included veterans who could remember the first one and others making their first trip to the stadium.
Timothy Rigsby, 28, of Independence, recently moved to the area from Alabama and found a prime spot in the first row of the bleachers, just inside the foul pole.
As a newcomer, Rigsby was not quite sure what to expect of the Royals this season but said he planned to get season tickets, just as he did for the Atlanta Braves when he lived in Alabama.
"I'm a supporter of baseball," he said.
Cody Newell, 12, whose mother is
Riggsy's partner in a trucking business, was at his third home opener and hoped for better results on the field this year.
"And I'd like to know why they're raising everything up by a dollar this year," he said, noting that the price for his general admission seat had risen to $6, from last season's $$.
Ed Crenshaw, 46, of Excelsior Springs, Mo., headed for a box seat in left field with his daughter, Heather, 13, and son, Garrett, 10.
"I'm hoping for a win," said Crenshaw, an opening-day regular since the era of the Kansas City Athletics before Charlie Finley moved them to Oakland.
A brief spell of heavy rain sent early-arriving fans scrambling for cover around noon, but within a half hour the sun was out again, although not for long and the game started under overcast skies.
Crenshaw, who said he tried to make 10 or 12 games a year, was cautiously optimistic about the Royals' chances, depending on the status of injured pitching ace Kevin Appier.
"I believe they have a good shot at a decent, .500 finish," Crenshaw said of the Royals, who were last in the American League Central Division two years in a row.
"If their pitching staff holds," added his son.

Jeff King, who had an RBI single in the first, hit a two-run homer on an 0-2 pitch from Terry Matthews to end the Royals' five-run sixth. Johnny Damon had an RBI double and Jose Offerman chased Erickson with a two-run single.
Dean Palmer hit Matthews' first pitch in the seventh for his third homer.
Carter hit another two-run single in the eighth, and Matt Whisenant walked Palmeiro with the bases loaded.

Milwaukee welcomes NL with a win

MILWAUKEE — On the day National League baseball returned to Milwaukee for the first time in 33 years, the Brewers won with some American League long-ball.
Jeromy Burnitz and Jose Valentin homered and the Brewers won their sixth straight, beating the winless Montreal Expos 6-4 yesterday at County Stadium.
The Expos fell to 0-7, extending their worst start in their 30-year history.
Home-run king Hank Aaron throw out the first ball, a one-hopper to the plate during pregame ceremonies. It was the first National League game in Milwaukee since Sept. 22.
1965, when the Braves lost to the Los Angeles Dodgers in 11 innings. The Braves moved to Atlanta the following season.
The Brewers, who moved from Seattle to Milwaukee before the 1970 season, started the season with a 5-1 road trip, and yesterday's crowd of 51,400 was the biggest for a County Stadium opening in four seasons.
Milwaukee's Scott Karl (1-0), who started last season with five consecutive losses, gave up two earned runs and seven hits in 6/13 innings. He left with a 5-2 lead in the seventh after two singles.
First baseman John Jaha then booted Scott Livingstone's grounder for an error, which loaded the bases. Vladimir Guerrero struck out, but Chad Fox walked Rondell White and Jose Vidro, which pulled Montreal to 5-4. Fox got out of the jam by retiring Brad Fullmer on a grounder to first.
Bob Wickman pitched the eighth, and Doug Jones pitched a hitless ninth for his third save.
Burnitz's three-run homer and Valentin's solo shot both came in the fifth off Dustin Hermanson (0-1), who gave up four runs on six hits in five innings.
Fernando Vina's RBI single off Mike Maddux in the sixth made it 5-2, and Maddux left with a strained right groin after doing the splits while trying to throw out Jeff Cirillo on a bunt.
Vina added a run-scoring single off Rick DeHart in the eighth.
Fullmer and F.P. Santengelo hit consecutive doubles off Karl in the second to put Montreal ahead. White's solo homer off Karl, his first of the year, made it 4-2 in the sixth.
Notes: Hank Aaron and Expos manager Felipe Alou are two of the three people who played for both the Milwaukee Braves and the Milwaukee Brewers. The other is Phil Roof.

Thomson's slam chosen as event to represent 1950s
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Bobby Thomson had just hit perhaps baseball's most memorable home run — "the shot heard 'round the world" — when he was congratulated by his brother, Jim.
"Bob, do you realize what you did?" Jim said.
"No, Bob, something like that might never happen again," Jim said. It never has.
"I said, 'Yes, of course, I was there,'" Bobby said.
Thomson's home run capped the New York Giants' astonishing run to the National League pennant in 1951 and has not been duplicated. The blow came 47 years ago and remains
Now the event will be commemorated on a U.S. postage stamp that will be issued in April 1999. Because people must be dead for at least 10 years before their faces can be depicted on stamps, Thomson himself will not be shown. The precise picture has not been decided.
"It's nice to be remembered," Thomson, 74, said yesterday. "I continue to be amazed that this home run thing has continued to be so well received ... I've tried to keep it in the proper perspective."
The home run was one of 15 subjects voted on by the public to represent the 1980s in the Celebrate the Century commemorative stamp and education program conducted by the U.S. Postal Service. The program honors significant people, places, events and trends of each decade of the 20th century.
Other 1550s subjects include boxing champion Rocky Marciano, the Korean War, U.S. satellite launches
Thomson took a strike, and then he slammed the next pitch into the left-field stands, giving the Giants a 5-4 victory and the NL penchant. It also elicited broadcaster Russ Hodges' famous call, "The Giants win the pennant! The Giants win the pennant! The Giants win the pennant!"
That brought up Thomson, and the Dodgers brought in Branca.

part of the game's lore.
For many years after the home run,
Thomson and Branca hardly spoke.
Thomson's home run came in the third and deciding game of the 1951 NL playoffs.
and rock'n'roll.
The Giants had forced the playoffs by storming back from a 13 1/2-game deficit in mid-August and tied the Brooklyn Dodgers for first place. After having split the first two playoff games, the Dodgers were leading the third game 4-1 going into the bottom of the ninth. Don Newcombe, the Dodgers' ace, was pitching, and Brooklyn appeared in command.
Then, Alvin Dark led off with a single, and Don Mueller followed with a hit. After Monte Irvin fouled out, Whitey Lockman sliced a double to left field and scored Dark.
"I don't think anyone can appreciate what he had to go through, considering the rivalry the Giants and Dodgers had." Thomson said.
Now, Thomson and Branca are the best of friends and share appearances at sports events, card shows and charity affairs.
"After a while, we got to know each other better and found out we had a lot in common," Thomson said. "That one day brought us together for the rest of our lives. Without it, you wouldn't be hearing much about Thomson and Branca."

Lipinski glides into professional arena
The Associated Press
Tara Lipinski captivated the Olympics with her gold medal win. Now the Winter Games no longer figure into her future, a decision that ends her budding rivalry with Michelle Kwan.
Lipinski said yesterday she was entering the professional ranks of figure skating. She wants to train less so she can spend more time with her family.
Lipinski will make her professional debut on April 24 at "Skate, Rattle n' Roll," a made-for-television event in Charleston, S.C.
That show is not sanctioned, and once the 15-year-old champion skates there she can forget going to Salt Lake City in 2002 to defend the title she won in Nagano, Japan.
The reinstement window that applied to ineligible skaters before the 1994 Olympics and allowed such champions as Brian Boitano,
Viktor Petrenko, Katarina Witt and Yekaterina Gordeeva and Sergel Grinkov to return to the Lillehammer Games, no longer exists.
Tonight in Baltimore, Lipinski begins the Champions On Ice tour featuring Olympic, world and national medal winners.
"I would love to go to the 2002 Olympics and try to win another gold." Lipinski said on NBC's "Today" show. She added she would feel "almost a little greedy in doing that, especially to my parents, who have given up so much."
Richard Callaghan, Lipinski's coach, said he was surprised at the timing of the decision to turn pro, but he understood it.
"I'm sorry to see her leave the eligible ranks," Callaghan said. "She did a lot for women's skating. It would be nice to see her do more."

Lipinski trained with Callaghan at the Detroit
"Now I'll have four day weekends and be able to be with my family because they mean
NAGANO
so much to me," she said. "I don't want to be 21 and not know my dad."
After she skipped last week's world championships in Minneapolis, it became clear that Lipinski and her advisers felt there was little to gain by remaining an Olympic-eligible skater.
"I've accomplished my dream," she said. "I think I need to give something back to them, so we can be a family again and really have that connection."
"I realized after Nagano how important it is to me to be with my mom and dad and be all together and have fun and go out to dinner and
really be a family again. I owe that to my parents and myself."
Several agents estimated Lipinski could earn between $13 million and $15 million in endorsements after winning the Olympics.
But there will be no more Olympic showdowns with Kwan, the 17-year-old who won a second world title last Saturday. They met three times this season, with Kwan winning at the U.S. championships and at Skate America. However, Lipinski won the biggest prize at the Olympics, where Kwan was
Lipinski leaves eligible skating with a remarkable record. She became the youngest U.S. and world champion last year and then was the youngest individual Olympic gold medalist in history at Nagano.
She is the best technical skater among the women, and her artistry has improved significantly in the last two years.
In 1997, Lipinski dithered Kwan as U.S., world and Champions Series champion.

Champions Series champion.
Lipinski's jump to the pros further depletes the Olympic-eligible ranks.
Although five-time U.S. champion Todd Eldredge said he would not jeopardize his eligibility by appearing in nonsanctioned events, he won't skate at nationals and worlds for the next few years.
Philippe Kindlier, the hugely popular bronze medalist at Nagano, has turned pro, as have Lug Chin, like Kindler a double-Olympic bronze medalist, and two-time Olympic dance champions Pasha Grishuk and Yevgeny Platov — she is pursuing a film career, too. Several other Olympic medalists, including men's champion Ilya Kulik and pairs winners Oksana Kazakova and Artur Dmitriev, also are considering leaving.
Detroit Tigers overcome five-game losing streak
Team's loss stretch ends with victory against Tampa Bay
The Associated Press
DETROIT — Todd Jones was a man on a mission. He had hockey tickets, and he did not want to be late.
Jones, Detroit's save leader with a career-high 31 last season, earned his first save of 1998 with a perfect ninth inning yesterday as the Tigers beat the Tampa Bay Devil Rays 3-1 in their home opener.
Jones said Mike Iitch, who owns the Tigers and the NHL's Red Wings, gave him the tickets.
The win, sparked by the hitting of Brian Hunter and some aggressive base-running by Luis Gonzalez, ended a five-game losing streak, which matched the Tigers' longest of 1997.
"I had felt absolutely useless until today," Jones said. "I mean, I want to go out and contribute. Plus, I've got third-row tickets at the hockey game."
"If I'd blown it, I don't know,
maybe he'd come and snatch back the tickets," Jones said with a laugh.
But it was no laughing matter for the Devil Rays, 4-2 through their first six games and trying to become just the third expansion team to start 5-2. Tampa Bay stranded 13 runners, including eight by Bubba Trammell.
"Both teams left runners on base," said Tampa Bay's Kevin Stocker, who had a triple and two singles from the ninth slot. "But we had the opportunities, and that's what you need is opportunities. We're going to win a lot of games if we keep getting those opportunities."
Trammell, who played for Detroit in the Tigers' 1997 home opener, struck out for Tampa Bay in the first and third and left the bases loaded each time. He fanned for the second out with runners at first and second in the seventh.
"The only thing that struck me about the change of uniforms was how I hit in this ballpark," Trammell said. "It didn't change anything. Last year, I think. I hit about .140 here and .280 on the road."
Two pitches before his final
whiff. Trammell hit a long ball into the second deck in left field
— but it hooked foul by no more than two feet. A homer at that point would have given the Devil Rays a 4-3 lead.
"You know, Bubba about killed us," Detroit manager Buddy Bell said. "You still have to make pitches to him. But we don't have any idea how to pitch to Bubba. I don't think anybody does."
Trammell was in the lineup because Rich Butler developed a groin infection.
"That was a frustrating game, for the players and for me," said Devil Rush manager Larry Rothschild. "In the first six games, we were getting those runs in. Today, we didn't."
Bryce Florie (1-0), the third of five Tigers pitchers, pitched two scoreless innings, and Doug Broca held Tampa Bay to one hit during 11/3 innings before turning it to Jones.

retreat to first base.
"That was a great play," said Tony Clark, who stretched to take the throw. "The ball ran on him a little, but there was no question Bobby could get him. Not with the arm he's got."
Detroit was also aggressive on defense. Right fielder Bobby Higginson, who led the majors with 20 outfield assists in 1997, made a running catch to snag a liner off Miguel Cairo's bat for the second out in the eight. Then he whirled and made a long throw across his body to double off Quinton McCracken before he could
Tigers' starter Brian Moehler gave up one run, six hits and three walks in 41/3 innings.
Notes: Rothschild said he was giving his players today off. The Devil Rays had stopped in North Carolina for an exhibition with the Durham Bulls on Monday. ... Boggs broke out of a 1-for-13 slump with his 3-for-3 effort. ... Fred McGriff had his season-opening six-game hit streak snapped. ... The Tigers called the home opener their first sellout since April 11, 1994. There were 45,768 tickets sold for the park, where official capacity is listed as 46,945. The 1994 date also was a home opener. ... First-pitch temperatures, tracked by the Tigers' public relations department since 1934, have ranged from a low of 34 in 1996 to a high of 80 in 1960. Yesterday's was 53 degrees. ... It was the first road game for the Devil Rays. The 12 previous expansion teams went 5-7 in their road openers.
Cuban baseball players released after defection
NASSAU, Bahamas — Cuban baseball defector Jorge Luis Toca, held for more than two weeks in a detention center in the Bahamas, was on his way to Japan yesterday after accepting an offer of asylum.
The 23-year-old first baseman left Nassau with his wife, Miyo Tora Gomez, a Japanese immigrant. They were in Tokyo today after stops in London and Amsterdam, said Vernon Burrows, the Bahamas' deputy immigration director.
Meanwhile, two other baseball players who defected from Cuba's national team last year were headed yesterday to American minor league teams.
Toca, three other Cuban players, a coach and four acquaintances fled Cuba by boat March 20. They were rescued by a Bahamian fisherman and were detained in Nassau while sports agents tried to get visas from a third country.
The other eight Cubans, all of whom remained in custody, signed an agreement Monday with the Florida-based sports agency KDN Sports Inc. to represent them in visa discussions with the Costa Rican government, Burrows said.
Costa Rica told Bahamian officials last week that three agents had applied for visas on behalf of the players. Burrows said. The Costa Ricans insisted they would not issue visas until someone produced a signed document showing they represented the players.
The players are catcher Angel Lopez, 25, second baseman Jorge Diaz, 23, and Michael Jova, a 17-year-old shortstop from Cuba's junior Olympic team. The group also includes Orlando Chinea, 41, a pitching coach.
All were banned from Cuban baseball last year because Cuban officials suspected they were planning to defect.
With them were Ernesto Perez Toma, 28, Giovani Pena Gonzalez, age unknown, Pedro Ferrer Chacon, 30, and Jose Roche, 27.
The Bahamas refused to grant political asylum to the group last week. The government said interviewers from the U.N. High Commission on Refugees did not believe that the group had been victims of political persecution in Cuba.
More than 130 other Cuban refugees are in custody at the detention camp in the Bahamas, which has an agreement with Cuba to repatriate refugees.
Meanwhile, two other Cuban defectors were involved with major league teams: center fielder Osmani Santana, 22, who signed with Cleveland, and catcher Francisco Santiesteban, 41, who will join the Seattle team.
The Indians said yesterday that Santana was scheduled to report Sunday and would play for Class A in Kinston, N.C. He abandoned his team in Mission last October.
Santiesteban, who defected in November when the Cuban team was touring Colombia, was headed yesterday for Peoria, Ariz., the Mariners said. Seattle has a rookie league team in Peoria, but the Mariners said he would be assigned to Double-A Orlando, Fla., in the Southern League.

Two more Wizards off to see judge
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Washington Wizards general manager Wes Useld bristled with anger about another off-the-court distraction. His two most highly paid, high-profile players, Juwan Howard and Chris Webber, are the subjects of a sexual-assault investigation.
"Quite frankly, I'm angry and disappointed that I'm standing here," Unseld said, "because of the lack of judgment that some of our players have used this season that has allowed them to be put into positions of having accusations leveled at them."
No charges have been filed against either Howard or Webber, who were named in a complaint filed by a woman Monday in Montgomery County, Md. Police spent yesterday interviewing potential witnesses who attended a party at Howard's house late Sunday and
early Monday, when the alleged assault took place.
NBA
Howard and Webber were in attendance at the party and were named by the woman, said police spokeswoman Ann Evans. "But to what degree their involvement is, whether they were the assaulters, we don't have a clear picture of it yet," she said.
Police have searched both players' houses and now want to question Howard and Webber, who were scheduled to return to the Washington
area early today following last night's Wizards-Bulls game in Chicago. The former Michigan teammates walked off the United Center court without comment following an early practice yesterday in Chicago, although Howard has called the accusations ludicrous and untrue.
Unseld said that he spoke to both players Monday and that both told him that the accusations were false.
Neither Unseld nor the police said when the two players would be questioned. Neither player's lawyer returned calls seeking comment.
Evans said about 40 people attended the party, which followed the Wizards' defeat of the Orlando Magic Sunday afternoon, a big victory in Washington's push to make the playoffs.
Woods hopes dreamlike Masters will become reality again this year
The Associated Press
AUGUSTA, Ga. — The child curled in his bed searching for sleep would never dare to dream it, partly because it is so improbable, mostly because it would be no fun.
When the child imagines being a hero, it is always the shot at the buzzer, the home run in the bottom of the ninth or the putt on the final green.
It is never winning by 12 strokes.
Not even Tiger Woods ever dreamed of a performance like the one he put on last year in the Masters at Augusta National Golf Club.
"I never thought I would have the lead like I did," Woods said after his tearful hug with his father on the 18th green last April to become the first African-American man to put on the green jacket of the Masters champion.
"You envision dueling it out with Faldo, or Nicklaus or Watson, someone who is always tough to beat down the stretch, or birdieing 16, 17 and 18 to get into a playoff." Woods said. "But never in the fashion I did. That's something you never dream of. It's kind of nice that it became a reality."
What Woods did in the 1997 Masters
A record 18 under par. A record 12-stroke victory. The youngest person ever to win the Masters. The first person of color to win a major championship.
was bevond anvone's wildest dreams.
Good looking, intelligent, dynamic. No one in Hollywood would buy the idea. It was preposterous.
That is just part of the enormous burden Woods carries into this Masters. Not only is he expected to win, he is expected to win big, especially by the large group of new fans he brought to the sport for the first time last year.
Woods has set the impossible as his standard.
If he feels the weight of that expectation, he masked it brilliantly when he entered the interview room at Augusta for the first time since his victory last year.
"Can I better it?" he asked yesterday about the effort in which he played the final 63 holes 22 under par after opening with a 40 on the first nine holes. "Yeah, Take away that 40."
Last year, Woods caught people by surprise with his shocking declaration of greatness. This year, greatness is expected, seemingly even by himself.
"Was last year perfect?" Woods asked. "Far from it. We all make mistakes."
Woods has made his share of mistakes lately. Since winning five of his first 16 starts on the PGA Tour, Woods is i-for-19 and has gone winless in 14 consecutive tour events covering nearly 10 months.
Woods: Can he repeat last year's Masters feast?
He was not a serious contender in any of the three major championships after the Masters.
For many, particularly those casual fans, anything short of victory by Woods in this year's Masters will be considered a failure, perhaps even by Woods himself.
"This is a big tournament and all," said Woods' couch Butch Harmon two weeks ago at The Players Championship, where Woods finished 35th. "And it is a lot of money, but it is hard for him to have his mind on Augusta."
Woods all but admitted that.
"Winning major championships is what it's all about," Woods said. "The majors are what I aim for."
This is the first major of the year. No one can win the Grand Slam unless he wins the Masters.
It was a game he would not play.
"Anyone who tees it up this week can win." Woods said diabolically.
It was a role he seemed born to play.
In separate corners of the interview room, Earl and Tida Woods watched as their son deftly handled the role of Masters champion.
Dozens of TV crews jammed the interview room, and hundreds of reporters from across the world tried to get Woods to say the Masters was Tiger Woods against the field.
It was a role I felt seemed born to play.
"I think this year is much easier because I know how to win here," Woods said. "I'm definitely growing as a player. Every year I keep growing as a player."
After the last question was answered, Woods, who had played the front nine in the morning, said: "Perfect;" nodded his head and made his way to the 10th tee to play the back nine.
Perfect. Just like his performance last year, a performance so perfect not even a child would dare dream it.
Eye of Tiger on 1998 Masters, future
The Associated Press
AUGUSTA, Ga. — The green jacket of the Masters champion hangs in Tiger Woods' closet. The winner's trophy sits in his living room. The closet, presumably, has space for many more coats, and the living room undoubtedly can hold more hardware.
Still, storage space could become a problem for Woods.
Virtually everyone assumes he will win at Augusta National Golf Club many more times. And when play begins tomorrow for the 62nd Masters, it truly will be the beginning of the second year of the Tiger Woods era.
But it also may be the beginning of something else. It may be the beginning of an intensely competitive period in the major championships.
If last year was the appetizer, then
bring on the full course.
If last year — with Woods, now 22,
Ernie Els, 28, Justin Leonard, 25, and
Dave Love III, 33, winning major championships — was the warmup, bring in
the main act.
The only thing that was missing last year was a good, old-fashioned shootout among the young guns down the stretch on Sunday.
"We haven't really played well together in a major championship," Els said yesterday, speaking of his rivalry with Woods. "Maybe this is the start of it."
Woods is ranked No.1 in the world and Els is No.2, though they virtually are deadlocked.
"But we're two of 20 really good young players out there," Els said. "So we'll just see how we go."
There was Walter Hagen, Bobby Jones
and Gene Sarazen in the 1920s followed by Sam Snead, Byron Nelson and Ben Hogan from the 1930s into the '50s.
Jack Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer and Gary Player carried golf to unprecedented popularity in the 1960s.
It is a sport that needs rivalries — and right now it appears to be on the verge of some remarkable ones.
Woods and Els are joined by Leonard, Phil Mickelson, Jim Furky, David Duval and Lee Westwood as great players, the oldest of which is 28. None of them would be a surprise winner this week.
"Right now there is a very large group of very good young players that are taking it to the hoop every week," said Tom Kite, the 48-year-old who was the almost-forgotten runner up to Woods in last year's Masters. "It's fun to watch."
Kite, Tom Watson, Nick Faldo, Nick Price and Greg Norman are among
those in the 40-plus crowd who still have the talent and confidence to contend with the youngsters here this week.
"We're not dead and buried yet," Faldo said.
Still, this year's tournament clearly revolves around Woods. There is a feeling that he could run away with it again.
Asked if he could better last year's record score, Woods said: "Who knows? Anything is possible."
But there also is the feeling that others will sprint with Woods if he tries to break from the pack.
"But I don't believe it's Tiger Woods against the field," Els said. "I think it's Tiger against the Augusta National golf course and it's for the rest of the field to do the same."
Kansan Classified
"Will he be in contention?" Els said. "Definitely, even if he doesn't play well. The golf course just suits him that well."

Painted Eggs
What people weren't looking for on the first Easter.
Instead, people were searching for the body of Jesus of Nazareth. A man who had claimed to be God. A man who said he would prove his deity by bodily rising from the dead. No other religious leader has made such a claim and backed it up with such an event.

No heat leaves it chilly on the Hill
By Laura Roddy
lroddy @kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
April showers may bring May flowers, but showers also have made some University of Kansas buildings chilly.
University residence halls and some other University buildings have had the heat turned off for the spring.
According to the National Weather Service in Topeka, temperatures have dropped to the 50s and 60s since Monday's high of 76 degrees. Yesterday's high was 47.
The recent temperature fluctuations have made residence-hall life uncomfortable for some.
Turning the heat on again in the residence halls would take three days, said Phil Garito, associate director of housing maintenance.
He said that if temperatures did not warm up tomorrow and Saturday as expected, the heat would be turned back on at the residence balls.
Megan Heald, Lindsborg junior and Ellsworth Hall resident, said nights had been especially cold.
"We're kind of at the mercy of what they want to do," she said.
"When we first came back from spring break, it was so hot because the heat was on." she said.
Lexi Janssen, Lee's Summit, Mo., freshman and Gertrude Sellards Pearson-Corbin Hall resident, also said the temperature fluctuations were frustrating.
Now that the heat is off and temperatures have fallen, the rooms and bathrooms have been cold. Janssen said.
"I wish we were able to control our own rooms." Janssen said.
Although the heat is off in some older University buildings, Jill Stark, a Study Abroad office assistant at Lippincott Hall, said her office actually had been stuffy, but some of the other offices in Lippincott Hall were chilly.
The University's heaters typically are shut off between April 1 and April 15, and some already are turned off, said Bob Porter, associate director of facilities operations.
Students, faculty and staff in the newer buildings enjoy automatic heaters that turn on at temperatures below 55 degrees, he said.

Driver in fatal accident intoxicated, report says
By Ronnie Wachter
rwachter@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Matthew Vestal, the driver of the 1997 Mitsubishi Montero that fatally injured Lisa Rosel was legally intoxicated and speeding, according to the Lawrence Police report released yesterday morning.
Vestal, Englewood, Colo., freshman, has not been charged with any crime and has not been arrested.
The accident occurred at 11:55 p.m. March 31 in the 1400 block of Tennessee Street. Vestal was given a breath test at 1:39 a.m. April 1 at the Lawrence police station, and the test results showed that the 19-year-old had 081 blood-alcohol content, according to the report.
Police also took a sample of Vestal's blood, which was given to the Kansas Bureau of Investigation for a blood-alcohol content analysis. That analysis is not back yet. Sgt. George Wheeler said.
Pedestrians and alcohol In total pedestrian accidents nation
In Kansas, a person younger than 21 years of age is considered intoxicated if his blood-alcohol content is .02. Wheeler said. For a person older than 21 years of age, the legal limit is .08. he said.
The report stated police officers estimated Vestal's vehicle was traveling at 45 mph when it hit Rosel, who was knocked to the ground and run over by the vehicle. The 1400 block of Tennessee has a 30 mph speed limit
After the breath test, Reporting Officer James Martin Jr. asked Vestal if he thought he could drive

Board lifts candidate's voting rights
Environmental group cites Yoder for missing meetings
By Marc Sheforgen
Kevin Yoder, Campus Cause candidate for student body president, has lost his voting rights on the Student Environmental Advisory Board by accumulating more than three unexcused absences.
Natalie Sullivan, chairwoman of the board, said Yoder missed his third meeting March 31, violating the board's attendance policy.
Yoder said that he was unaware of any attendance policy and did not know that his status as a board member was in jeopardy.
"I don't think efforts were made to make me aware of my status on the board at all," Yoder said. "Everybody should know the rules, and I was never informed."
However, Sullivan said Yoder wrote the attendance policy with her last October.
Yoder was the chairman of last year's board, and Sullivan said she and Yoder began to draft this year's policy manual during the leadership transition.
"He wrote the policy manual with me," Sullivan said. "I guess he could have forgotten; I don't know."
Yoder said he did start to work on the policy manual with Sullivan but did not finish the project
Yoder: Said he was unaware of attendance policy
"I don't remember what exactly I worked on with the policy manual." Yoder said.
Yoder said he was disappointed with the board's effectiveness this year; therefore, he said, he stopped attending the meetings.
"No one's going to keep going to a board that isn't doing anything." he said.
Scott Sullivan, student body president, said he had appointed Yoder to the board and he had sent a letter to all of the people he appointed expressing his expectations.
"You would expect any committee members to make it to the board or committee meetings." Scott Sullivan said.
Scott Sullivan said Yoder performed admirably as chairman of the environmental board last year and said he did not think this year's absences were an indication of Yoder's abilities to be student body president.
Last year, with Yoder at the helm, the board helped implement a $1 environmental improvement fee, which has generated almost $50,000 for recycling. The board also won the project-of-the-year award, which is given by Student Senate.
"A lot of the recycling that's going on right now is because of the efforts of last year's SEAB," Yoder said. "SEAB in a sense hasn't really done a lot this year. It's been frustrating."
Emily Heath, Delta Force candidate for student body president, said she questioned Campus Cause's concern with the environment, something it has billed as a top priority in this year's campaign.
"If he can't even come to the meetings of the sole environmental board that he's on, I mean, I don't see how he can say he cares," Heath said. "There's a lot of talk but no action."
Yoder said he stood by the work he had done for the board and said the complaints about his attendance were nothing but politicizing.
"This is an attempt by people to smear the work I've done on SEAB in the last year and a half," he said.
University terminates contract for new library database system
By Aaron Knopf
aknopf@kanson.com
Kansan staff writer
Despite allowances manufacturer missed installation deadline
The University of Kansas canceled its contract to buy a comprehensive library information system from VTLS Inc. after the Blackburg, Va.-based company repeatedly missed production deadlines.
The new VTLS system, Virtua, would have replaced KU libraries' core applications, including the online catalog and the circulation system. Virtua also would have provided a platform for new services.
begin in the Summer 1997, said John Miller, assistant dean of KU Libraries.
The University began a development partnership with VTLS in 1996 with the expectation the transition to the new system would
Miller said the University agreed to push the implementation date back to Summer 1998 after it became clear VTLS would not have a full product ready in 1997.
"When it appeared that they were not going to meet that certain deadline was when we decided to investigate backing out." Miller said.
William Crowe, vice chancellor for information systems and dean of libraries, said VTLS had agreed to refund the University's $100,000 down payment and to provide $30,000 to cover expenses incurred during the period that the University worked with VTLS.
Although the University is getting its money back, Crowe said there was no way to retrieve the 18 months spent on the project.
But Miller said the time was not wasted. The work to prepare existing library catalog records for conversion to Virtua will be applicable for any new system. Miller said.
Barbara Scheid, VTLS marketing manager, said one of the reasons VTLS was not able to finish on schedule was the inability to find enough programmers in a competitive employment market.
Scheid said VTLS was disappointed Virtua would not be implemented at KU libraries and said the relationship between VTLS and the University was good, despite the contract termination.
The University now will look at other vendors.
"This time, we're going to go with a vendor that is ready to install," Crowe said. Of the three or four venders available two years ago, none had complete products
Crowe said the University chose VTLS because it had the strongest financial backing and the largest customer base.
Crowe said it probably would take about two months to select another company but estimated that, even with the delays, KU libraries could have a new system by December.

'Little old lady' arrested in dispute about cutting in line
Lawrence police arrested a 70-year-old woman Tuesday morning for allegedly punching a man in an area church, Sgt. George Wheeler said.
"He was punched in the jaw by this little old lady while he was waiting in line for his free breakfast," Wheeler said.
Wheeler said the confrontation began at 7 a.m. Tuesday while the Jubilee Cafe was serving breakfast at Trinity Episcopal Church, 1027 Vermont St. He said the woman entered the line for breakfast, when a 40-year-old Lawrence man already in the line accused the woman of cutting in. Wheeler said.
"She took umbrage at this and hit him," Wheeler said.
Police were contacted to investigate a battery, Wheeler said.
"Apparently, they were still in line, but words were still being exchanged," Wheeler said. "To prevent further violence, we took the lady into custody."
Loose golden dog retrieves, injures terrier in Lawrence
Lawrence animal control officers chased a golden retriever Tuesday morning after attempting to rescue a small terrier from the mouth of the retriever, Lawrence police said.
Sgt. George Wheeler a resident of the 1900 block of West 31st Street saw the golden retriever attacking Bear, the terrier, and called Lawrence Animal Control.
Animal control officers began searching the area for the dogs, he said.
"The dog, which is apparently bigger than Bear, took Bear in his mouth and jumped over a fence with him." Wheeler said.
"They found the golden retriever, minus Bear, and chased him on foot." Wheeler said.
The retriever hurried another tense to elude his captors, Wheeler said. The animal control officers could not jump the fence, so they went around it.
"Then, they had a dog mix-up," Wheeler said. "They found a similar dog, but he had a different collar on."
Wheeler said Bear, who had been seriously injured in the attack, was treated at Clinton Parkway Animal Hospital, 4340 Clinton Parkway.
He said the golden retriever, who was not captured, was last seen wearing a blue collar.
Latin American Solidarity group to hold dinner tonight
The Latin American Solidarity Organization will sponsor a dinner tonight to talk about El Salvador.
The black beans and rice dinner will start at 5:30 p.m. at the Ecumenical Christian Ministries building, 1204 Oread Ave. It is open to the public.
Although the event is free, Hope said the organization usually asked for $2 donations.
After dinner, Mary Coppie will speak about about her trip to El Salvador. Coppie is a graduate student at Kansas State University and went to El Papaturio, a Lawrence sister city in El Salvador, last summer. She will talk about her impressions of life in that country.
Rosana Aguire, El Salvador graduate student, said bringing speakers who were not from Latin America helped show a different perspective about Latin American issues.
"It's mostly about the way she saw the community there." Aguire said about Coppe's lecture. "It's a way to tell people how it is in Latin America and destroy stereotypes that we see in the movies and in the media."
Megan Hope, Garden City graduate student and president of the Latin American Solidarity Organization, said the purpose of the group was to educate people about situations of injustice in Latin America.
She said the last dinner that the organization sponsored was in February and the lecture was about the multilateral agreement on investments and how it affected different countries in Latin America.
There are about 10 students involved with the organization and they meet every other week, on the second and fourth Wednesdays of the month. The meetings are at 4:30 p.m. in the Kansas Union.

Conference will highlight Native American writers
The University of Kansas will be the site of the Wordcraft Circle of Native Writers and Storytellers Conference today, tomorrow and Saturday.
The conference will feature visiting writers from Arizona, Oklahoma, Texas, Cornell University and the University of California-Davis, said Cornel Pewardy, assistant professor of education and coordinator of the event.
The conference will begin at 8 a.m. today with registration and will end Saturday night with the KU Native American Student Association's annual Spring Pow Wow at Anschutz Sports Pavilion.
"The theme is silent genocide," Peewardy said, "That is what you get when people create an image that is not based in authenticity."
Pewwardy said Native American writing and publishing suffered from a lack of opportunity.
"Many Native American storytellers and writers don't think we're getting published as much as other groups," he said, "We're going to have a panel discussion to find out what we can do about it."
Speakers and panelists from the area include Luci Tapahonso, associate professor of English, and James Stevens from Haskell Indian Nations University.
The Wordcraft Circle of Native Writers is a consortium established to publish and distribute Native American writing, Pewheyward said.
Channette Kirby, library assistant and planning committee member, said the conference would contribute to the community because of its broad coverage of Native

Peewardy said that before Columbus' North American arrival, more than 100 million indigenous Americans existed. Now, there are only two million.
"Who's going to tell the story of what happened?" he said, "That's what this conference is for — to tell our stories."

Seinfeld gang tapes top-secret final show
LOS ANGELES — After nearly a decade of chatting in the coffee shop, munching on cereal, breaking up with all potential mates and yada yada yada, Jerry, George, Elaine and Kramer are ending their run as masters of their TV domain.
The final episode of Seinfeld was taped last night. The show is going out on top, still television's No. 1 comedy and the centerpiece of NBC's powerhouse Thursday night lineup. The hourlong finale will air May 14.
A VIP crowd watched some scenes, but the ending was filmed without an audience. Those involved with the show were asked to sign confidentiality agreements, and scripts were kept from actors and NBC executives.
Despite an offer to raise his pay from $1 million to an estimated $5 million per episode next season, Seinfeld decided to end the show.
The network sold two 30-second commercials on the final episode for a record $2 million each. The old record for the most expensive ad time on television was set in January, when NBC sold a Super Bowl half-minute for $1.3 million.

Comptroller resigns after two months
By Gerry Doyle gdoyle@kansan.com Kanson staff writer
After a two-month stay, the University's new comptroller has resigned
and knifeman, who began working for the University in February, resigned Tuesday afternoon.
Klinkner said his decision was based on what was best for his family. He said that although the decision was sudden, it was necessary.
"There are times when you have to make decisions for professional reasons and financial reasons," he said. "Now, I have made a decision for my family. My kids are in their formative years. They have good friends. Their feelings finally surfaced within the last couple of weeks."
Klinkner plans to return to Warrensburg, Mo., where he was controller at Central Missouri State University from 1991 to 1996 and where his family still lives.
Klinkner said he had enjoyed working at the University and said nothing involved with the University had caused him to resign.
"There are no personality issues or anything like that," he said. "It was a great place to be. It was a place I wanted to be. I'm really disappointed."
Lindy Eakin, associate provost, said he was trying to figure out where to go from here and said a candidate search might begin soon.
The resignation had caught him by surprise, he said.
"Last it talked to him, he was looking for a house here." Eakin said. "We're still trying to sort through this. The questions now are: How do we move forward? How do we keep moving forward?"
Director of purchasing Diane Goddard will take over Klinkner's duties. Goddard served as interim comptroller before Klinkner was hired.
Goddard said the comptroller's position was not one that should remain open.
"I was pretty much doing it before Mel got here, so I'm fairly current on all the issues," she said.
"I can't say I saw this one coming," she said. "But I truly understand the decision. None of us wanted to lose Mel. He was a pretty perfect fit."

Music festival to spring up in May
By Chris Horton
chorton@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
First there was the Jayhawk Music Festival, and now, Lawrence will have another outdoor music festival.
The Lazer, 105.9 FM, announced yesterday that it would sponsor its second outdoor music festival in Lawrence, the Sunflower Festival, which will take place May 16 at Clinton Lake State Park. The Lazer also sponsors the Kappa Sigma fraternity's Jayhawk Music Festival.
The confirmed lineup was announced on the air at 4 p.m. yesterday by Brett Mosiman and Jacki Becker of Pipeline Productions. Joining headliners Ben Folds Five will be Tonic; Medeski, Martin and Wood; Ween; Spacehog; and

Mosiman said the festival would serve as a spring counterpart to the Jayhawk Music Festival, which Pipeline also promotes.
"We've got an hour longer in the spring until dusk, so it should run until 8:30 or 9 p.m.," he said. "Hopefully, it will be an annual affair."
Becker said event proceeds would benefit Kansas Parks and Wildlife and area children's charities.
"I hope we could get 10,000 people like we do with Jayhawk Music Festival and raise some money," she said.
Robert Reddig, Kansas City, Mo. freshman said he would attend the festival.
"There are a lot of good bands," Reddig said. "I went to the Jayhawk Music Festival last year, and it was fun, so I think

man were not included in the report.
The KBI blood tests for Vestal's passengers, Julie Barton, Littleton, Colo., freshman, and Linsay Wachloz and Lindsey McClean, Quincy, Ill., freshmen, also were not released.
"I'm obviously not going to make any final decisions on that until I've seen all the lab reports," she said.
If the district attorney's office presses charges against Vestal, the results of both his breath test and blood check will be admissible in court. Wheeler said.
Christine Tonkovich, Douglas County district attorney, said she received the police report yesterday but did not have a timetable for what, if any, action she would take.
"What the law says is 'Either, or,' so they're
both given equal weight." he said.
After being given the result of the breath test, Vestal stated in the report that he had drunk about four glasses of beer at The Crossing, 618 W. 12th St. Vestal used fake identification to purchase alcohol at The Crossing, according to the report.
According to the police report, Vestal's story changed after he had taken the breath test.
Martin wrote that Vestal denied several times that he had been drinking before taking the breath test.
Wheeler said Vestal remained free on his own recognizance. He said police did not plan to contact him until a decision was made by the district attorney's office.
Dennis Moore, Vestal's attorney, did not return phone calls.

Minority student unity, activism benefit everyone at University
The presence of minority protest and activism could not be ignored this semester. The groups that have been involved should be proud of their efforts and should continue to be active.
For three nights minority and nonminority students protested what they believed to be a racist skit on March 12, 13 and 14 at the Rock Chalk Revue at the Lied Center. Minority students filled the room at the March 18 Student Senate meeting to support a bill that would create three minority Senate seats. Last week, hundreds of students turned out at Wescoe Beach
for a rally supporting affirmative action.
All of these things are positive for minority students and for the University of Kansas as a whole.
These events have caused new alliances to be formed between minority groups such as Black Student Union, Hispanic American Latino Organization, Native American Student Association, Asian American Student Union and Queers and Allies.
These groups are now working together to fight the injustices that face all of them as minorities. Because
of the efforts by these groups, students all over campus are talking about issues of race, identity, and sexuality. That is insurance and pressure.
That is progress and progress is always needed if change is to occur
We encourage these minority groups that have been participating in changing the ideas and broadening the horizons of KU students to continue their efforts. We encourage those that have not yet been involved to take part in these activities as well.
It is important to continue the fight for equality and minority unity, which will in turn positively affect everyone on campus

Kansan article falsely identified Bangladesh
Bangladesh is a part of India. This is what appeared in The University Daily Kansan in its March 9 issue. The article that contains this information was on International Women's Day. The article disgraced international students, especially Bangladeshi students, on campus.
I have been studying in the School of Journalism since Fall 1997. So far I have gathered that the mantras of journalists are: "Get your facts right"; "If your mother says she loves you, check it"; "Spell the names right." We lose 50 points from our reporting assignment if we spell a name wrong, because it is a fact error. In this instance it is not the case of misspelling a name, it is the case of making a country's existence questionable.
On March 9, I went to the Kansan newsroom and very politely asked one of the editors to publish a correction about a mistake. But the nonchallent response spoke volumes. I could see that it would not get done, and I
was right. I was advised to write a letter by Malcolm Gibson, assistant professor of journalism.
I hope no one would say that I am overreacting. The report questioned the sovereignty of an independent nation. It is a very serious mistake. I know that most KU students grew up in small towns. Their knowledge of the outside world is very limited, let alone their knowledge of diplomatic issues. But that should not be an excuse for students of journalism. It is not necessary that they have to be omniscient, but if someone draws their attention to a mistake they must take it into account. For the readers of the *Kansan*, let me explain what Bangladesh really is. It is an independent country which was liberated from Pakistan in 1971. For the last 28 years, my country has been on the world map.
We were liberated from Pakistan because the West Pakistani rulers wanted us to abandon our language, Bangla. The founder of Pakistan, Muhammad Ali Jinnah, said, "Urdu and only Urdu will be the state language of Pakistan." This declaration came when he was addressing the students of Dhaka University at a graduation ceremony. The students cried "no" in unison. In spite of a series of repressive measures we never said "Yes." Eventually, they resorted to violence on March 25, 1971. We gave resistance and after nine months of battle we won our victory on Dec. 16, 1971. During our liberation war we had India by our side. India helped us during our time of need with all its resources.
Literally, Bangladesh means country of Bangla language. The slogan which inspired us during our liberation war was Joi Bangla, or long live Bangla language. Three million people died for the cause of our language. I don't know how many nations on earth have made such a huge sacrifice for their languages. International media portray Bangladesh in a negative light. From their portrayal one might think that Bangladesh has a monopoly of disasters, but we have a very precious thing. We have freedom to speak in our own language, which we acquired at a high cost. What else do we need?

Perspective
Affirmative action ignores real problems
Our university's debate on racial preferences, ignited by Rep. Anthony Powell's bill in the Kansas Legislature banning them, is in dire need of some fresh anal-
PETER
sis. There are two questions that need to be answered before students and other citizens form an opinion on the legislation at hand. First, is a policy correcting for discrimination necessary? And second, is preferential treatment the best policy for solving the problem?
Andrew Marino opinion@kansan.com
Whenever disparities between racial groups occur in test scores, income, or other categories, the knee-ierk reaction is to
blame it on discrimination but then cite no evidence. For the most part, this has been the extent of the one-sided campus debate.
That is, however, a simplistic explanation. I'm not claiming that instances of racism do not occur and cause serious damage to individuals' lives — because they do. For these unfortunate cases, we have anti-discrimination law, as a remedy.
However, other factors account for a large chunk of the gaps we see in statistics that measure group achievement. Congressional Budget Office Director June Neill found that when factors like age, schooling, geographic region, and test scores are accounted for, black incomes are virtually equal to that of whites. African Americans are disproportionately young — younger people tend to earn less — and live in the South, where incomes are lower. In other words, racial discrimination is not a primary cause of lower African-American income. Personal choice, demographic trends, and education play a much larger role.
If racism were the main causal factor in the statistical gaps used to justify affirmative action, it indeed would be difficult to explain why the group most harmed by the policy is not Whites but Asians, who tend to have higher grade-point averages and standardized test scores.
Action." But that point leads to the second question, which is whether preferential treatment is the best way to solve the problem. Serious questions have been raised as to whether Affirmative Action is a good thing for African-American students.
There are people who will say, "Aha! Now we've got him! The minority disadvantage in education is exactly why we need Affirmative
Economist Walter Williams points out that African-American students at the University of California at Berkeley had an average SAT score of 952, while the rest of the students averaged about 1200. The result was tragic: 70 percent of African-American students failed to graduate. As a result of their preferential treatment during admission, they were set up for failure. Their horrendous education at the primary and secondary level is the true culprit, not discrimination.
Affirmative action policies are good for universities because then administrators, elites, and political activists can talk about diversity (as if the only component of diversity was skin color). I doubt few would disagree, however, that the interests of the students must come first. We must also consider the costs to our nation as a whole. Preferential treatment does irreparable damage to race relations because Whites, who feel they are being discriminated against, are pitted against minorities, who are directly or indirectly not held to the same standards of excellence. They must wonder if they got the job or received admission to the school because of the color of their skin or their talent and hard work. By conflicting with the nation's goal of colorblindness, preferences remind us all of our differences rather than our unity as people in the American nation. If minority enrollment is down in California schools after Proposition 209 (a law similar to the one proposed here in Kansas), then we should find out the real reasons as to why and not just blame it on racial discrimination.
Preferential treatment is simply an artificial mechanism used to cover up a deeper problem. The longer these policies are in place, the more entrenched they become, making it increasingly difficult to remember that the underlying problems lay within the African-American community and the American education system.

Affirmative action no longer needed
I don't understand the whole affirmative action idea. When it was first introduced, there was a need for it but not now. It seems that many people are using affirmative action as a crutch to get what they want more easily. Is it moral for someone to be given something because of who they are, or to get what you earn?
I believe there was an African-American man named Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. that once said we should be judged by the content of our character rather than the color of our skin. I believe this is true, and most minorities do also. Therefore, there shouldn't be any affirmative action or quotas to fill. It would be humiliating and degrading to know that the only reason you got accepted for a job, college or scholarship was because you had a particular skin tone. And on the other side, it's devastating not to get into a dream college for the reason that they could no longer accept persons of your sex and color because they had to leave room for quotas.
Many people think not having affirmative action is racist, the fact is that affirmative action is a racist act and shouldn't be used any more. The solution: no names, race, sex or religion on applications. Only numbers and credentials should be given and may the best person earn the position.

Alternative spring break article bad
As members of the Center for Community Outreach's Alternative Spring Break trip, we found the April 1 article, "Spring break program was no vacation" to be poorly conceived.
The article highlighted the unsatisfactory experience of one alternative Spring break participant. A site leader pointed out that it was the only complaint of the 48 people in the program. Others reported having very positive trips. Why, then, did one person's
story become the focus of the article?
We had an excellent trip to El Paso, Texas. We accepted rearranged schedules and misguided directions as natural. Doing community service, which the trips are designed to foster, is all about being willingly inconvenienced by the needs of others and the untidy, sometimes unpleasant process of learning the truth about oneself. We and the vast majority of participants benefited from the experience and commend co-coordinators Chris Hess and Jeff LaCroix and advising professor Glen White for facilitating it. We believe it is one of the most important and relevant-to-life programs at the University of Kansas. It is unfortunate that the regrettable experience of one person unfairly set the tone for a report of the program.

Truth behind editor's resignation hidden
It really comes as no surprise to me that we as The University Daily Kansan readers are given little information into the wheelings and dealings of the latest Kansan scandals. I am of course referring to the sudden and surprising dismissal of the Opinion page coeditor Andy Obermueller. I am reminded immensely of the cover-up which occurred last semester in the dismissal of then-editor Spencer Duncan What seems to be taking place here is complete and utter trampling of a fellow student's rights. We are given many reasons for Obermueller's resignation but few facts. Apparently, those elusive items would cloud the issue too much. About the only concrete reason for Obermueller's dismissal is the vague notion that he had somehow been associating with political events outside of his job. Despite what our legal system would like to have you believe, it is impossible for any person to maintain
Let us then turn to what we are told in the Kansan. What exactly does the Kansan mean when it reports that Obermuelter was taking inventory of the Delta Force campaign materials? Is this to imply that he was carrying a little clipboard and recording the number of each item he saw or is it perhaps that he was idylic learning through materials which were laying around as he waited for Matt Caldwell to answer the door? I would place my money on the second option. Caldwell is quoted as saying "Everyone at the house has a horrible relationship with Andy. I feel his resignation is a good thing." This kind of language seems to indicate that there has not been good blood between these two, and turns the issue into one of a personal vendetta against Obermuelter. I am struck with a sort of kindergartenish I don't-like you-so I'm-going-to-tell-the-Kansan-on-you attitude coming from Caldwell, and an I don't-like you-so-I-am-going-to-fire-you-unless my-resign style attitude from the Kansan. This seems more of an excuse for the Kansan to remove a person who might have been seen as a troublesome individual than a true issue of whether Obermuelter has broken any rules.
a completely unbiased viewpoint of anything. Even disciplined subjectivity is an ideal far beyond most people's reach. It is bitterly ironic that the section of the paper from which Obermueller was released was the Opinion section. Apparently, one must remain unbiased while possessing an opinion. Or maybe they need to have the Kansan give them their opinion.
There may be more facts in this case which would lead me to agree that it was appropriate to dismiss Obermüller, but as with the incident involving Duncan, we simply are not getting any facts on which to judge. Ultimately, it appears that this is merely a clash of personalities and a flaunting of power by the gods we know as the Kansan. I'll thank the Kansan to print this and leave me with my opinion unattainted.

U.S.-China policies spur debate
A. B. C.
By Chris Horton
chorton@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Issues surrounding China's Most Favored Nation trade status were discussed last night at the first symposium sponsored by the Robert J. Dole Institute for Public Service and Public Policy.
Clifford Edmunds, senior China analyst for the Foreign Broadcast Information Agency in Washington, speaks as part of a panel on Most Favored Nation trade status for China at the Kansas University Ballroom. Edmunds was joined on the panel yesterday by Derry Weidner, professor of Chinese politics; Robert Sutter, senior specialist at the Library of Congress' Congressional Research Service in Washinton; and Richard Bernstein, a book critic for the New York Times.

About 350 people watched the debate about U.S. foreign policy regarding China, which took place at the Kansas Union Ballroom. It was preceded by a panel discussion yesterday afternoon.
The debate between Richard Bernstein of the New York Times and Christopher Szymanski, a former member of the State Department's U.S. Senior Foreign Service, touched upon ways for the United States to interact with China in the future.
Both speakers favored maintaining China's Most Favored Nation status but disagreed about how to handle the political dynamics between the two powers.
Szymanski than China had internal and external problems but it had made progress in areas often criticized, such as human rights and economic development.
Issues such as China's growing pollution and the 5.1 trade imbalance with the United States are still at problem levels, he said. Even those issues are beginning to be addressed, he said.
Bernstein, who co-wrote the book "The Coming Conflict with China," said the United States should be cau-
"It would be a mistake to withhold Most Favored Nation status as a means of dealing with other issues," he said.
ious of dealings with China.
He said it also would be a mistake on the behalf of the U.S. government not to send troops if China tried to take Taiwan by force.
Shaohui Huang, Guangzhou,
China, graduate student, said the debate topic and Bernstein's book were his reasons for attending. Huang said economic ties between the United States and China would prevent future confrontation.
"As long as opinions of people like Bernstein don't become mainstream, relations will be good," he said.

Director not afraid of play
By Tamara Miller
tmiller@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
"Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf" opened last night at the Lawrence Community Theatre, 1501 New Hampshire St., to a sold-out crowd.
The play, which Edward Albee wrote in 1962, began when a middle-age woman walked on stage with a cigarette in hand and yelled, "Ah, Jesus!"
Paul Lim, play director and associate professor of English, said the play was last performed in Lawrence in 1976. He wanted to bring the play back because the story addressed issues that are relevant today, he said.
"The vision of the humanist vs. the scientist is appropriate today," Lim said. "In the late 1990s, interestingly enough, we are grappling with the issues of cloning."
have invited another couple to their house. The characters get drunk and spend most of the night trying to impress one another. Phil Schroeder, a Kansas City, Kan., actor who plays George, said his character felt trapped by life.
The story is set in the living room of a married couple who
"He's pretty much a middle-age man who is discovering that he doesn't have anywhere to go," Schroerd said.
Although the topics still are relevant, Lim adjusted the production to highlight the story. For example, his production uses a chess set to highlight the games the characters play with one another.
"I have introduced a lot of physical games and props," he said. "I have also added a fifth actor to the play to represent the young man in some of the character's stories." Colum Morgan, Austin, Texas, freshman, is the fifth actor. He said the hardest part of the production was the physical transformation.
"My hair is naturally curly and brown," he said. "Now, it's
straight and bond. Also had to start working out and going to a tanning salon."
Lim said that before he decided to bring the play to Lawrence, he asked other English instructors if they were interested in teaching the play in their classrooms.
"In the last 10 years, it had been dropped," he said. "We had to get teachers who were willing to teach the play."
This semester, English 102 and 211 instructors teach the olay.
"I thought it was an easy play to read," she said. "It didn't feel like you were reading something ancient."
Amanda Loewe, Blair, Neb., freshman, said she enhance the play last night to enhance her understanding of the story, which she is reading in class.
Lim said the production enhanced the message of the play.
"Although we teach plays as literature, frequently we forget that they are supposed to be performed," he said.
Campus groups sway Senate

Much of the debate at last night's Student Senate meeting centered on money.
Some wanted to take money out of

only the $376 remaining in the Senate unallocated account, which is the account used to finance these requests.
Jordan Edwards, Senate Finance Committee chairman, said he was against taking money out of the Senate reserve account.
The debate began with a bill to allocate $1,655 to the University of Kansas' Korean Student Association for the Korean Culture Night. The bill passed.
"That money should be used for emergencies," Edwards said. "This is not an emergency."
Aaron Profitt, Nunemaker senator and a bill sponsor, said the group should receive the money.
"That's the student money in the accounts, and if they need it, then we should give it to them," Profiff said. "It's our fault that we ran out of money in the unallocated account, not the Korean Association's fault."
Senate also voted to give the KU Veterans Association $1,478 for a new computer.
Michelle Dennard, Liberal Arts and Sciences senator, said that although she respected the KU Veterans Association, she did not favor giving the group a computer because it had been established as a campus organization for only a

Horton hero John Crider seals intent
By Tommy Gallagher
tgallagher@kansan.com
Kansas townsurveyor
HORTON — Yesterday was John Crider Day in Horton.
Crider, a 6-foot-4 shooting guard from Horton High School, officially signed a letter of intent to play basketball at Kansas next season. More than 300 people showed their support for Crider by attending the press conference.
Crider, described as a tireless worker by most Horton residents, said he would continue to prepare to play at the Division I A level next season.
"I began training harder since I committed to Kansas because I know I need to get better," Crider said. "I've always thought that a person can be as good as he can be if he worked hard enough. And I've dreamed about becoming a Jayhawk ever since 1988. Now that work finally paid off."
Janice Crider said she and her husband, Dave, never had to motivate their son.

"I've

"The pride that I have is too big for me to show or say," she said. "I admire John for all the work he has done because we never had to push him one day. He's always been out on the
basketball court, always looking to work out."
But despite the lofty numbers, Janice Crider said the small-town roots made it difficult for John to attract the attention of most major colleges.
Crider averaged a state high 31.3 points per game this season, while adding 11.1 rebounds, 3.1 assists and 3.7 steals for the Chargers. He won the 1998 Kansas Mr. Basketball award this week and also earned firstteam all-state honors. He had received scholarship offers from Kansas State and Oklahoma.
"This day doesn't compare with anything else that happened before," she said. "These things don't come around here all the time. To even get him noticed by Kansas and a lot of schools was hard."
Janice Crider, an avid Kansas fan and basketball fan, said she first took John to see the Jayhawks play in Allen Field House when he was only 5 years old. Thirteen years later, the family will attend every home game to see John play, she said.
Dave Crider said his son represented the dreams of basketball fans across the state.
"Because this is a small town, John is more of a celebrity here," he said. "He's a good kid and would be an excellent role model for anyone who wants to do what he did — live his dream."
The blanket also included a message from the class: See John jump. See John run. See John play at KU.
The event began when the town's kindergarten class offered Crider a blanket as a gift.

One side of the blanket was crimson, red and yellow and featured the Jayhawk logo. The other side was white, plastered with colored hand prints of the entire class and some of the school's staff members.
Horton city officials then declared yesterday John Crider Day in honor of their hometown hero. Afterward, Crider signed the letter-of-intent, which officially made him a Jaiyawk.
After the papers were signed and dated, he flashed a wide grin and hugged his mother.
"I couldn't believe that," Crider said. "It's a big honor, and it shows how much they appreciated me through the years. I love this town to death. Without them, I never could have made it this far."
Crider finally realized his dream yesterday. But John Crider Day?
Offense offers obstacles

Offensive role intrigues former defensive tackle
By Kevin C. Wilson
Kansan sportswriter
The offensive line is a position on the football team that often is overlooked and under appreciated. It frequently is assumed that these behemoths are stupid lugs who do nothing more than plow into whoever happens to be in front of them.
Senior offensive tackle Dan Dercher beets to differ.
"Defense is a blast. It's easy because you just go hit the player with the ball," Dercher said. "Offense is for a smarter person. There is so much more you need to know."
Dercher had spent his career at the University of Kansas as a defensive tackle before being switched to the offensive side of the ball in the middle of last season. He started the final five games of the 1997 season at the left tackle spot and has gained an appreciation for the positions' demands.
"It blew my mind all the stuff I needed to know," he said. "It's like taking a test everyday, block this guy, go to that guy, open this hole. Offense is definitely a challenge."
Dercher said playing on the offensive had its rewards.
"It's fun when you're out there moving the ball down the ball," Dercher said. "When we score a touchdown on offense, it's like getting a sack on defense."
Last season however, the Jayhawks' offense struggled to get into the end zone and finished last in the country in total offense.
With Dercher manning the left tackle position in the final four games of the season, the Jayhawks averaged nearly 360 yards of total offense, compared with less than 200 vards in the first seven games.
Kansas coach Tony Allen said that last season the offensive line struggled, but this year, with all of the competition at that position, he was expecting improvement.
"With Dan moving over to offense and getting the year of experience, I think it will be a good strong area for us," Allen said. "Dan is a kid who could be an outstanding offensive lineman, but he needs to get a little bit stronger."
Dercher said he was doing just that, and he credits a new weight-training program with helping him bulk up to 285 pounds, compared with his 265 pounds at the beginning of last season. Dercher said he hoped to get up to 295 pounds by the end of the summer and wanted to increasing his quickness and power.
"We've done a great job with the weight program." Dercher said. "We're focusing on the quickness and size that you need for football, those 10-yard spurs of energy."
"We're trying to learn all of the plays and

Commentary
Golf glossary eases confusion before Masters
I'm sorry to share with you the following tragic news:
The idea for this column surfaced while watching Wheel of Fortune.
My epiphany came with Sajak's hypnotizing voice in the background. Contestants struggled to think of which consonant to use after the big ones — R, S, T, N, and L — were gone, not to mention this was not a seasoned group of wheel spinners either (bankrupts galore).
Sajak was getting restless. Vanna was tired of leaning against the letters.
I don't mean to brag,
but I am a high school
graduate, despite what
my mom says.

Adam
After solving the puzzle, I realized that it would helpful to create a
Adam
Herschman
sports@kaansan.com
Anyway, a lot of questions such as, "Hey Adam. What's the difference between Fuzzy Zoeller and a fuzzy navel?"
glossary with some of the more obscure golf terms. I've found that these terms, make for great chit chat with people at the bus stop, especially with the Masters around the corner. Often, they don't respond, but that's not important.
Well, Fuzzy Zoeller is a pro golfer who made a racist remark at last year's Masters, and a fuzzy navel is a cocktail with orange juice, peach snappens and vodka. However, both leave a sour taste in your mouth.
Another question, "Hey Adam, what's a mulligan?"
To explain this one, think back to little league practice. What happened when you whiffed on a pitch while the catcher was talking? That's right, you asked for a do-over; little leaguers love the do-over.
It's tough not to love the do-over.
A mulligan occurs when players take a doover and do not count their last shot. Professionals are not allowed to take mulligans — the term describes an amateur only option.
Here are some other golf terms for your enjoyment:
You the man: A symbol of affection, a term yelled by every fan under 30 in the gallery at anyone who tees off.
- Noonan: A term you won't here at the Masters. A word heard a lot on the public course used to distract your opponent.
Nnooooon!
■ Birdie: A term used to describe scoring that means one under par. It is good to get a birdie, unlike receiving the finger.
Dogleg: It describes the shape of a hole that resembles a dog's leg (dogleg left or dogleg right), even though many holes look more like a chicken leg.
Bunker: Another word used to describe a sand trap. No relation to Archie Bunker or Nunzio Bunker — my make-believe friend.
■ Sandy: Refers to chipping out of the bunker and making the next shot. Has nothing to do with Sandy Duncan from The Hogan Family.
Clubhouse: The building that usually has a golf shop, locker room and restaurant where golfers retreat after the round is finished. Don't get this confused with the clubhouse used in the old Honeycomb commercial, which was more like a tree house.
Caddy: This is not short for Cadillac on the golf course. It's the person who hauls the clubs. Many golfers do own Cadillacs.
Hopefully, this glossary has provided a better understanding of the game and for watching the Masters, which begins today.
By the way, because of all of the phone calls and fan mail I've still been getting about sweatpants, I feel the need to answer a question I'm anticipating on getting from this column.
"Adam do you miss the segment on Wheel of Fortune where the winning contestants purchased goods like the ceramic Dalmatian from the revolving display?"
(Tears in my eyes) I don't like talk about it because the pain still lurks inside, but yes, I do miss it. Not a show goes by where I don't think about that ceramic Dalmatian or that stainless steel flware.

After a round-one score of 301 left them sitting in last place Monday morning, the Jawhawks put together a high-quality second-round score of 283 that afternoon, tying their second-best effort of the season. The score was also the second-best team score of the tournament.

Coach Ross Randall said many factors, including rainy weather and poor putting, contributed to the Jayhawks' high first-round score.
Kansas shot a final-round score of 297, leaving them in the middle of the 20-field back.
Junior Chris Thompson took second place in the tournament with the help of his second-round, three-under-par 68. Thompson, who posted a combined score of 212, was just one stroke behind tournament champion Naoya Takamoto of the University of California at Santa Barbara.
"We played pretty well in the last round, but we missed a few putts here and there." Randall said.
Thompson's finish was the seventh time in 10 tournaments that he has placed in the top five.
"I didn't get to play with (Takamoto), so I didn't know what it would take to win," Thompson said. "You just have to shoot your number and see what happens."
Randall said, "I was pleased with the effort from Thompson, but I wish he would have won."
Sophomore Ryan Vermeer had scores of 79-66-76 for a total of 221.
The second-round 66 was the best score of the season by any Jayhawk.
Vermeer finished tied for 29th.
Junior Ryan Zug tug for 79th with his score of 230. Senior Brad Barnett finished with a score of 231.
"We have also seen bad weather at most of our tournaments this year," Randall said. "But we are close to doing well, it is just a matter of getting quality practice time with good weather so we can prepare."
Sophomore Brad Davis shot rounds of 77-72-75, totaling 224 to finish in a tie for 43rd.

The Jayhawks will compete next in the Franklin Quest Cougar Classic, April 21-22, in Provo, Utah. This is the last tournament before the Big 12 Championship held April 27-28 in Hutchinson at the Prairie Dunes Country Club.
Randall said the team should do well against the Big 1,2 teams but said recent bad weather had contributed to a lack of practice time.

"Jeff Conline is going to be out for a longer period than we first thought," Robinson said. "We obviously need another outfielder."
It is unknown when Conine will return, although he would be eligible to come off the disabled list Wednesday.
For this, the Royal Focus in the outfield became acute when Jeff Conine went on the disabled list with a strained abdominal muscle.
Macfarlane's agent, Jeff Moorad, initially told the Royals that the catcher, one of the longest-tenured Royals players, would not accept the trade.
Macfarlane had been the backup to Mike Sweeney. He had one hit in 11 at-bats in three games this season. The Royals likely will call up catcher Sal Fasano from Triple-A Omaha to become Sweeney's backup.
Regarding Mcfarlane's trade, "We had talked about it for some time, and there are a number of reasons
Once the trade is finalized and if both Mack and Fasano join the major league club, the Royals will have to drop one player.
But MacFarlane told The Kansas City Star: "Why stay with a team that doesn't want you? I'm going to go."
Macfarlane has spent his major league career with Kansas City except for 1995, when he was with Boston. He came into the season with a career average of .253 with 118 home runs and 449 RBIs.

Felix Grimmett, Reynolds' coach at Junction City, called him the best player in Kansas in terms of his size.
"He has hit games where he really gets on a roll offensively," Seifert said. "He is a rhythm player. If he gets in a good rhythm, he is going to do well."
His coach at Mobberly, Kenny Seifert, called Groves a solid player who could be explosive at times, with a 30-point game as a freshman.
"He runs the floor and block shots," Grimmett said. "He has the whole package. For us he had to play inside but at K-State he will have no problem stepping out on the wing."
This season, he had 36 points in one game and 18 rebounds in another.

Orioles start season with 6-1 streak
Baltimore back after loss to KC on opening day
The Associated Press
BALTIMORE — The Baltimore Orioles made history last year by becoming only the sixth team in baseball history to remain in first place the entire season.
Any chance this year's team had of an encore dissipated opening day with a 4-1 loss to Kansas City. But the Orioles have won every game since, and after seven games, they have a better record than the 1997 squad that won 98 games and went to the American League championship series.
This is the fourth time in franchise history Baltimore has started 6-1. In 1966 and 1971, the Orioles reached the World Series,
Although it is far too early for Baltimore to start printing playoff tickets, the Orioles have at least given the other teams in the AL East something to think about.
Baltimore has scored at least 10 runs three times during its sixgame winning streak. The Orioles also have won twice by one run, including a 4-3 win against the Royals in which Baltimore scored four runs in the bottom of the ninth.
and in 1996, Baltimore made it to the ALCS as a wild card.
The pitchers have allowed an average of only three runs per game, and the hitters repeatedly have displayed their ability to come through in the clutch — the Orioles have scored 48 percent of their 44 runs with two outs.
Orioles
"We can't give wire-to-wire; we can't prove that opening day," manager Ray Miller said. "But to win the tough games, that makes everybody kind of relaxed. We
know that if we can't out-slug them, we can do the little things and win with our pitching."
The Ole Ole climbed into first place in the AL East after their fourth game and appear intent upon staying there.
The Orioles
Indeflier Jeff Reboulet said,
"We're getting timely hitting,
playing good defense and getting
what we need from our pitchers.
We wanted to get off to a good
start, and so far that's exactly
what's happened."
The Orioles still have 155 games left, and it would be absurd to draw any conclusions after just seven games against Kansas City and Detroit. But it already appears evident Miller will benefit from having the most expensive 25-man roster in baseball history at his disposal.
After leadoff hitter Brady Anderson hurt his shoulder Saturday, Miller placed Jeffrey Hammonds atop the order against the Tigers on Sunday and inserted Roberto Alomar in the No.1 spot Tuesday. Hammonds got two hits, and Alomar went 4-for-6 and scored twice in Baltimore's 11-7 win against the Royals.
Backup catcher Lenny Webster is hitting, 538, and even utility players Reboulet and Ozzie Guillen have contributed to the sizzling start. Baltimore has attempted to run much more often this season than in the past two years under former manager Davey Johnson.
"We've been executing very well," outfielder B.J. Surhoff said. "We've been bunting runners over, using the hit and run and taking an extra base if it's there. When the games are close, you need to do the little things well, and we're very confident in our ability to do that."

Veteran Karl Malone still hot
34-year-old scores 56 reaches 2,000 points for 11th straight season
The Associated Press
OAKLAND, Calif. — Karl Malone sat in the trainer's room, his ankles soaking in an ice tub as he autographed basketballs for a couple of young fans.
The frigid water was about the only thing that could have cooled off Malone. He burned the Golden State Warriors for 56 points Tuesday night, the NBA's highest-scoring game since 1995.
Malone already was working on a big game when he swished a one-handed fling from 30 feet as time expired in the third period, finishing a 25-point quarter that was the most productive in Utah Jazz history.
"That shot at the end of the third quarter, I told myself, 'If this goes in, maybe I am in one of those zones,'" Malone said. "I told myself, 'Hmmm, I don't think I want to rest in the second half. I might just stay in the whole game.'"
But not even Malone's heroes could prevent the Warriors from making it 99-99 with 11.8 seconds left on a three-point shot
by Jim Jackson.
But, as he had all night, Malone took control. He drove the lane and lofted a soft shot for a 101-91 win giving
Malone played 42 minutes, including the entire second half. With 3:22 left, Utah coach Jerry Sloan approached Malone and asked, "Karl, you all right?"
Malone shrugged off the question, saying. "I'm fine."
Sloan knew his star forward was not going to come out, but he said he felt obligated to ask.
"I have a responsibility to his career. I'm responsible to him for more than just the night," Sloan said. "But it would have been a shame to take him out."
Teammate Greg Foster agreed.
"We were just standing on watching," he said. "When he's hitting that 15-foot jumper of his, there's nothing you can do."
The Warriors tried stopping the 6-foot-9 Malone with defenders ranging from 6-7 Clarence Weatherspoon to 6-11 Erick Dampier.
"At times we got the ball out of his
Malone was 19 of 23 from the line and 18 of 29 from the field. He had nine rebounds and a season-high four blocks.
hands, but it didn't happen enough, obviously," said Warriors coach P.J. Carlesimo.
The previous NBA high this season was 50 points, by Washington's Tracy Murray and the Lakers' Shaquille O'Neal. It was the highest-scoring effort in the league since Glen Rice scored 56 against Orlando in 1995.
The only time Malone scored more points in a game was his 61 against Milwaukee in 1990.
"There is not much you can do," said Warriors center Felton Spencer, who fouled out trying to guard Malone. "One-on-one, Karl is a very physical player, and a player of his stature is going to get those calls."
Golden State's Donyell Marshall learned how physical Malone could be. Malone accidentally knee him during the third quarter, fracturing a rib.
By scoring 56 points, Malone reached exactly 2,000 points this season — extending his NBA record to 11 straight seasons with at least 2,000.
“It’s an awesome feeling when you’re 34 years old, and your teammates say, ‘Carry it, fella.’” Malone said.
Blues' play soars in spite of pending free-agency fray
ST. LOUIS — The St. Louis Blues do not look like a team headed for the big breakup.
NHL
The Associated Press
ee weeks ago. the front
Three weeks ago, the front office called an unusual news conference to announce that star right wing Brett Hull and defenseman Al MacInnis had turned down longterm deals and that they would explore the free-agent market.
That seemingly grim day has seemed to ignite the team, which is playing as if there is indeed no tomorrow.
Before losing 5-3 Tuesday night at Detroit, the Blues had won five in a row and 11 of 15. They are tied for fifth in the overall standings with Colorado with 90 points, second in goals behind Detroit and second in home victories.
"Everybody in here thinks we've got a team that can go a long way," goalie Grant Fuhr said. "If we play as well as possible, there's no reason why we shouldn't win."
In the offseason, the Blues could lose most of their big-name players. Besides Hull, who rejected a three-year, $15 million deal, and Macinni, who spurned three years and $12 million, left wing Geoff
Courtnall and defensmen Steve Duchessi also could become unrestricted free agents.
"What's a lame duck?" Hull said. "Who says I'm leaving? Well, there sure is a good chance."
Duchesne, who will continue negotiations after the playoffs, said that creates a sense of urgency.
"In my 12 years in the NHL, this is definitely the best team I've played for," Duchene said. "You don't get many opportunities to be on a team that talented and that has a chance to go all the way. I want to definitely take advantage of it."
The Blues appear firmly entrenched with the fourth seed in the Western Conference and a first-round matchup against fifth-seeded Los Angeles. St. Louis has a nine-point lead with six games to go.
Coach Joel Quenneville said tonight's game against Chicago would have plenty of intensity because the Blackhawks, a traditional rival, were fighting for a playoff berth.
"Tomorrow is a life-and-death game for Chicago." Quenneville said. "We've still got to be ready to compete because otherwise teams are going to walk all over us."

NCAA facing antitrust lawsuit
Coach Williams called to testify
The Associated Press
OVERLAND PARK, Kan. — One of the most significant legal battles in NCAA history begins in federal court this week, with the NCAA facing possible monetary damages that could reverberate throughout college sports.
"A judgment in the neighborhood of $100 million, which some people are speculating upon, would affect everybody," Big 12 commissioner Steve Hatchell said. "The NCAA's contingency funds would not come close to covering such an amount. The implications are serious and severe."
NCAA
At issue is the amount of damages sustained by about 2,000 restricted-earnings coaches in various sports at Division I schools who were limited by the NCAA to five years employment and $16,000 in annual salary.
Instituted as a cost-cutting measure, the rule was challenged by
three groups of as s istant coaches whose antitrust lawsuits were certified as class actions representing coaches
from the roughly 300 Division I NCAA schools.
The lawsuits were combined for trial, and U.S. District Judge Kathryn H. Vratil struck down the rule in May 1995 as a violation of federal antitrust laws.
Lawyers began arguing in Vratlil's court this week about whether the amount due the plaintiffs was nearly $30 million as they claim or less than $900,000 as claimed by the NCAA.
Yesterday, Kansas basketball coach Roy Williams became the first celebrity witness in what is expected to be a five-week hearing.
to a certain amount of money."
"What I tried to say was I didn't think (the rule) was fair, and that some people did suffer financially," Williams said. "As far as I know, there are not many places in America where you're limited
Williams also told the court he thought the NCAA was taking a narrow view of the financial damages.
"There are 300 or so Division I schools, and the majority of them had somebody in that role, and their income was restricted," Williams said. "I have my own personal opinion of the damages, but they didn't ask me."
The NCAA also is liable for the plaintiffs' legal fees if the jury of six women and four men decides against the organization.
The NCAA is appealing Vratil's original ruling to the U.S. Supreme Court. But adding to the worry for many schools is the anger the judge has shown toward NCAA executive director Cedric Dempsey.
She issued an order in 1996 instructing Division I schools to provide plaintiffs' attorneys with information about expenses.
But after a letter with Dempsey's signature went out suggesting the schools did not need to comply with the order, none did. Then Vratil, citing what she called the
NCAA's arrogance, ordered Dempsey to show up in person in her courtroom. Dempsey did not have to testify but was embarrassed and inconvenienced.
"We really made a mistake with this one," Frederick said. "The thing was fraught from the very beginning because of the nature of it. We should have realized we were inviting a restraint of trade suit with a title like 'restricted earnings.'"
The case is dominating conversation at college meetings.
"We've all been concerned about this for a long time," Hatchell said. "It's something people are talking about at commissioners meetings, at conference meetings, everywhere. We're hearing all kinds of speculation as to what might happen, and not much of the speculation is what you want to hear."
"The talk on the street is that the NCAA really upset the judge," said Bob Frederick, Kansas athletic director.
There also is concern that the NCAA's ability to enforce other rules adversely could be affected by an antitrust ruling in the case.

With a bushy white beard and a soothing, melodious voice, Ted Johnson would be a movie director's pick for a college professor. Even his office looks like Hollywood's image of a professor's workplace — crammed from wall to wall with books and papers. A computer sits in the corner, barely visible. Johnson rarely turns it on.
"The computer is there," he says. "It reassures people." Johnson, 61, professor of French and Italian for 30 years, has made the conscious decision not to let computer technology change his style of teaching. He is part of a shrinking group of faculty that does not use PowerPoint software to lead lectures, does not post course material to a Web page, and does not create multimedia presentations.
These professors are not Luddites, but they are skeptical of computer and multimedia technology's ability to enhance teaching. They are of different ages and backgrounds, but, like Johnson, they say they fear that technology can disrupt a classroom dynamic that has existed between students and professors for hundreds, if not thousands, of years.

Voter awareness group tackles University elections
The recently formed Committee of Voter Awareness is holding its first meeting at 1:30 p.m. today at the Jayhawk Room in the Kansas Union.
During the meeting, the group, which formed this week, will introduce its objectives to students, recruit volunteers and make an educational banner to be hung on Wescoe Hall.
Mark Auerbach, Warren, N.J., senior and president of the Committee of Voter Awareness, said the committee's objective was to inform people about where the polling sites will be and the exact elections dates.
"The purpose is to educate people about elections at KU," Auerbach said, "and address the problem of low local participation."
Auerbach said during the last eight to 10 years, student participation in elections had been between 11 and 17 percent.
"We have a goal of 25 to 30 percent for this year," Auerbach said. "By telling people where and when elections are, we can help accomplish this goal."
Both Delta Force and Campus Cause donated $35 to the committee. Senate donated the educational banner.
Julius Williams, assistant director of minority affairs and committee adviser, said students were responding positively to the concept of the organization.
"We are interested in a stronger participation of different constituents on campus, to broaden the whole election process." Williams said.
He paid the group was independent from any candidate.
"The purpose is to stimulate voter turnout," he said. "The interest is purely participation. This semester has been a different semester, with a higher degree of activism.
-Marcelo Vilela
"Students are genuinely concerned with the conditions of the KU campus and election is a crucial part of campus climate."
NATION
Twisters shake the South causing numerous deaths
Tornado Alley is in the Plains, but the Southeast is the country's twister death row.
Although more twisters hit Tornado Alley — the area from Texas up through Oklahoma, Kansas and into Nebraska — more people are killed by the tornadoes that hit in Dixie.
The reasons given for the disparity include the different housing, geography and population density and the greater tendency of tornadoes in the Southeast to strike at night.
Between 1950 and 1997, the Tornado Alley states of Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Nebraska and Missouri had 13,808 tornadoes, according to data compiled by the National Storm Prediction Center and analyzed by The Associated Press. In those storms, 1,132 people died.
In Alabama, Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Georgia, Florida, Tennessee North Carolina and South Carolina, there were 9,178 tornadoes and 1,648 deaths.
For example, Alabama, where at least 32 people were killed by tornadoes Wednesday, ranked third in the nation in the number of tornado deaths during that 47-year period, with 290 killed. It ranked only 13th in the actual number of tornadoes.
One major factor making the Southeast more dangerous when tornadoes strike may be the number of mobile homes there. Census figures show the Southeastern states have more mobile homes than other regions of the country.
High immigration rates lead to a crowded country
WASHINGTON — America's foreign-born population is reaching levels not seen since the turn of the century. Some people see problems ahead; others see business as usual in a nation of immigrants.
About 9.6 percent of U.S. residents were born elsewhere, the Census Bureau said yesterday, citing 1997 figures. That is the most since 1930, when 11.6 percent of U.S. residents were natives of another country. The foreign-born share peaked at 14.7 percent in 1910 because of the massive European immigration a century ago. But today, Latin America and Asia are the
But today, Latin America and Asia are the primary source of newcomers.
But K.C. McAlpin, deputy director of the Federation for American Immigration Reform, worries that the rapid influx of new arrivals is leading to crowded schools, higher crime rates, urban sprawl and increased government costs.
In addition, he said, after the flood of immigrants at the turn of the century, Congress effectively closed the doors in the 1920s, taking a 40-year time-out to digest the new arrivals. "Nothing on the horizon at the moment suggests we are going to do the same thing," he observed.
Aviation safety measures to address random crashes
WASHINGTON — Top U.S. transportation officials want to get regulators, airlines and manufacturers to work in unison on safety problems instead of just reacting to the most recent crash. They are planning to lay out a new safety agenda next week.
While the Federal Aviation Administration and the Transportation Department will not discuss the new agenda or even its precise roll-out date, the main goal is expected to be eliminating plane crashes that occur even when there is nothing
wrong with the aircraft
Such crashes accounted for 25 percent of all of the commercial airplane accidents worldwide from 1987 to 1996 — killing 2,396 people, the FAA said. That does not include the 228 people killed in last summer's crash of a Korean Air jumbo jet on Guam, in which investigators believe a perfectly operating plane was flown into the side of a mountain.
One possible remedy is the mandatory installation of advanced ground-warning indicators in airplanes. A few airlines are already installing them.
WORLD
Iraq provides information on nuclear weapons arsenal
UNITED NATIONS—Iraq has met its obligation to the United Nations to provide information about its secretive nuclear program, but it continues to conceal the scope of its biological weapons program, two U.N. reports said.
In the past six months, U.N. experts from the International Atomic Energy Agency found no new evidence of nuclear weapons during 211 inspections, according to the report on Iraq's nuclear capabilities.
Before that, the report noted, Baghdad had tried to obtain material for nuclear weapons from a foreigner and failed to turn over documents to support its claim it had abandoned its hidden nuclear program.
The two reports said Iraq still needed to be more forthcoming about its biological and nuclear weapons programs if it hopes to have crippling U.N. economic sanctions lifted.
The findings come as the chief U.N. weapons inspector, Richard Butler, completes a six-month review of Iraqi cooperation on inspections, including the recent visits to so-called presidential sites Baghdad had previously declared off-limits.

Students to hit cultural beat in powwow
The eighth-annual Spring Ppowow will have something for everyone, said Rhonda Levaldo, public relations chairwoman for the Native American Student Association.
"Dancing on the Hill Indian Style," will begin at 6:30 p.m. tomorrow in Anschutz Sports Pavilion. The free event will include traditional dances, dance competitions and displays of Native American arts, crafts and jewelry.
"It will be interesting for non-natives because we involve all the visitors that come," said Levaldo, Acoma pueblo, N.M., junior. "It's not just for Native Americans."
Elyse Towey, NASA president and Napa Calif, senior, said a powwow was an opportunity to celebrate and honor Native American culture.
Dancers will perform from 2 to 5 p.m. The Grand Entry of all participating dancers will start at 6:30 p.m. Dancers can register for the dance competitions between 5:30 and 6:30.
"Powwows are a time for a lot of different people to get together and are traditionally a sort of celebration of our survival as indigenous people," she said. "When we dance, it's almost a prayer to thank the creator for the survival of our culture."
Levaldo said the powwow would include intertribal dances in which all participants would be invited to dance. She said she wanted audience members to participate.
"The 'Round Dance' is one example of a dance for everyone," Levaldo said. "It's a friendship dance where everyone dances in a circle and holds hands. We want them to get involved and not just be spectators. We don't want them to be separate from us."
Levaldo said dancers from across the country traveled to different powwows in the United States. She expected dancers from the western states to attend the University's powwow.
Levaldo said the purpose was to try and involve students at the University of Kansas in the Native American community and, introduce them to NASA.
Another goal of the powwow is to break down stereotypes. Towey said.
People are not sure what powwows are or why Native Americans have them, Towey said.
"Powwows are not just to dress up and dance but to celebrate," she said. "People don't understand some of the dances or why people are dressed in a certain way, so they are hesitant to join. They don't understand, so the stereotypes are perpetuated."
Levaldo agreed.
"We want them to have the experience, to come and find out what it is and to educate them," she said.
Last year, about 2,000 people attended the powwow, Levaldo said. She said she was hoping to see the same number this year.
"We started working on this at the beginning of the fall semester. It seems like it's taken forever for it to come, but now we're all saying it's too soon."
Towey said NASA would honor some of the people who helped during the Rock Chalk Revue protests in March and the affirmative action rally. She said special invitations had been sent to the Hispanic American Leadership Organization, Black Student Union and the Asian American Student Union.

Burning bush window broken
A rock shattered a portion of Smith Hall's burning bush stained glass window on Wednesday night, said the KU Public Safety Office.
"It's so pointless," said Tim Miller, chairman of the religious studies department.
Miller said the rock penetrated the outer storm window as well as the stained glass, bending the lead framework. The rock landed in the William J. Moore Reading Room.
Marian O'Dwyer of the Phoenix Gallery, 919 Massachusetts St., said the hole was 15 inches across, but a 3 foot by 3 foot area was damaged about 10 feet above the ground. The gallery will make the repairs.
"Obviously, it's going to take time," she said. "It's amazing how much damage was done."
O'Dwyer said the gallery was working on replacing the outer glass. To fix the stained
glass window, workers will have to construct scaffolding and remove the damaged portion.
Miller said stained glass needed to be resealed periodically and the department already had been in contact with the gallery before the vandalism.
"We were going to do some maintenance on it anyway," he said.
The window was installed by a St. Louis company when Smith was built, in 1966 and 1967. The statue of the kneeling Moses, which faces the burning bush window, was not added until 1982. The burning bush scene depicts the University of Kansas seal, Miller said.

Apartment seekers create housing fray
By Carl Kaminski
ckaminski@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
As the semester comes to a close,
students who plan to live off campus
in the fall scramble to find new
homes.
"I know a lot of landlords are busy working to secure clients," said James Dunn, president of the Lawrence Landlords Association.
Dunn said students hoping to rent a house off campus should begin searching.
Nhan Nguyen, Wichita junior, rents
a house on Ohio Street with four friends.
"A lot of the groups are forming about this time of year," he said. "It's important to secure that property now rather than late. If someone is in a group, they need to be solidifying things now."
He said they started looking just after the winter break last year and they signed their lease in the first week of March.
He said the best way to secure a house was to find someone who planned to move out and contact the individual before the house went on the market.
Nguyen said people who wanted his house started knocking on his door as early as February.
Waiting too long to start looking could lead to bidding wars, Nguyen said. He said a friend of his missed out on a house last year after another group outbid him.
Dunn said apartment hunters did not face the same problems as house hunters.
"For just a single person looking for an apartment, they will have choices up until the day school starts," he said.
Waiting for an apartment may even be beneficial, Dunn said.
"Some of the most unique properties I have come open at the last moment," he said. "People don't want to give them up until they absolutely have to."
Marilyn Lynch, a Lawrence landlord, said she still had properties that would be open in July and August, but many leases already had been signed.
Lynch agreed with Dunn's assessment of the apartment situation.
"It seems like we have a lot of apartments," she said. "I have noticed more competition among the land-lords."
She said she had not noticed whether competition had lowered prices.
Dunn said now was the best time to find a good deal.
"The prices can be all over the board anytime, but I suspect that the least expensive apartments are going to rent now." Dunn said.
Students planning to live off campus need to make sure they look for something within their budget. Lynch said.
Dunn said students often run into problems because they expect to live as well as they did at home.
"Many students come from suburban- type homes where they were practically living in a suite," he said. "They expect this, but they won't get it."

THE NEW DOCTOR/PATIENT RELATIONSHIP
"TAKE TWO ASPIRIN AND CALL ME IN THE MORNING."

ALBUQUERQUE JOURNAL
Editorials
Student television station, KUJH should have local cable broadcast
If students wish to tune into their campus TV news station, they have to do more than flip a switch. Students must unplug the cable cord and attach rabbit ear antennas because Sunflower Cablevision will not allot air time for KUJH Channel 14 news.
Sunflower should change its policy and give KUJH a chance to be seen in Lawrence.
The broadcast journalism program, KU students and Sunflower Cablevision would benefit from cable broadcasting of KUJH. Targeted at students, faculty, staff and the Lawrence community, its news is campus-wide, regional and national. It also includes entertainment news and class information. Broadcasting the news show during open airtime on Channel Six, or allocating KUJH its own channel, would help bridge the gap between Lawrence residents and the
campus community. It would keep both parties informed about news and events at the University of Kansas.
Journalism students and professors, Student Senate and Chancellor Robert Hemenway have tried to negotiate with Sunflower Cablevision to give air time to KUJH. However, Dan Simons, president of Sunflower Cablevision, refused the proposal
Attempts for several weeks to reach Simons were unsuccessful.
Although KUJH still is in its developmental stages, support from Sunflower Cablevision would propel the success of KUJH. Gary Hawke, KUJH director, said cable air time was crucial to the station's ultimate success. Until KUJH expands, Simons probably will not move toward an agreement. Hawke said.
If Simons does not think that broadcasting KUJH programs during Channel Six's open airtime would be beneficial,
then he is wrong.
Broadcasting KUJH on Channel Six would benefit both the cable company and the station. More students likely would watch the channel, which would increase overall viewership and eventually ad revenue.
This also would serve many of Sunflower's viewers.
Many students subscribe to Sunflower Cablevision, and they deserve to see their own student-run, University-oriented newcast.
Sunflower Cablevision should reconsider its opposition to KUJH.
KU students should write Sunflower Cablevision and demand that it give KUJH air time. This would benefit Sunflower Cablevision, KUJH and —most importantly— student viewers.

University riots were not as common as legends say
What is new and disturbing is the amount of crime on campus. There is little respect for other people's property.
Along with loads of laundry, my daughter brings home The University Daily Kansan, so I can read it and recycle it. I enjoy seeing what is new on campus, and what things never seem to change. The April 3 issue was typical, with its article about the tunnel system, an eternal source of student curiosity.
A factual notation: The tunnel article referred to the late 1960s, when anti-war riots were going on at the University of Kansas.
Sorry, but I was a KU student and student journalist in the late 1960s and early 1970s, and no such riots occurred.
There were protests organized,but
there were no riots, at least not by students. True, the Union burned or was torched. I was asleep in my dorm room and missed it, while friends down the hall were rushing inside the burning building to rescue valuable furniture and art.
True, a bomb exploded in the computer center. I heard it go off from the 10th floor of Ellsworth Hall.
True, a long, boring, obscenity-ridden speech by Abby Hoffman at Allen Field House was followed by a refreshing, impromptu student occupation and sit-in at Strong Hall, but there was no riot, no mayhem, no violence and no destruction.
True, there was a chillingly tense period following the Kent State shootings, when a curfew was imposed on campus and the National Guard was on patrol but again, no riot. We were afraid that we were among the next to be shot.
I remember one night when a phalanx of police attacked and clubbed every protest marcher they could catch on Jayhawk Boulevard, but nobody was fighting back. We, including the student journalists, were running like hell. This is as close to a riot as I can recall, but it was very one-sided. I would say you can look it up, but you cannot. This particular night I mention occurred after the Kansan had ceased publication for the spring, and the mainstream media didn't or wouldn't cover it.
I'm almost glad the purported riots live on in legend, but they don't belong as facts in newspaper stories. Not near as much happened at the University during those years as a lot of people would like to believe or pretend to remember.

A day too late to spend time with lost loved ones
Have you ever heard the cliche “It's better late than never?” When exactly does better late become never? I discovered the answer last week, Wednesday morning to be exact
The phone rang early that morning — suspiciously early. After the fifth ring, I grumpily rolled out of bed and stumbled to the caller ID box. The call was from my Mom. For a moment I contemplated not answering, but then I decided that something must have been wrong for her to call that early. So I picked up the receiver and answered the worst phone call of my life. My mom told me that my

cousin, Lisa Rosel, had been killed in a car accident a few hours earlier.
As the reality of this nightmare clamped down, I started to think about the last time that I saw Lisa. It was early December, and she had come to watch me in one of my theater performances at Murphy Hall. I remember how nervous and excited I was that she was there. It was the first time that she had ever seen me in a show.
Afterward, we talked about how it would be nice to spend more time together. I told her that I would call her during winter break, and we would get together for some coffee.
I never made that call. Days turned into
weeks, and then into a month, then two and finally three. At the end of the third month, better late became the inevitable never. The next time I saw Lisa was at her funeral Friday. I will regret that mistake for the rest of my life. I'll always ask the question, "Why was I too lazy to call Lisa?" My own stupid procrastination has prevented me from ever seeing my little cousin again.
Lisa's death has prompted me to take action. I don't want to put things off anymore. Tomorrow might never come, and it's terrible that it took her death to prove it. I no longer can be content to wait until tomorrow. I owe it to myself, and I owe it to Lisa.
It's my hope and my prayer that everybody reading this article will realize the same thing. Don't put off the important people and goals in your lives. The day that you wait easily could become a day too late. Go home and call someone you haven't talked to in a long time. Tell your girlfriend or boyfriend how you really feel. Spend some time writing an unfinished story. Do anything, anything at all that you've been putting off. Just see how it feels. I'm sure you'll be glad that you didn't put it off anymore. Do it, because never comes sooner than you think.
To my cousin, Lisa Rosel; I love you with all my heart, and I'm sorry that I didn't spend more time with you. Thank you for coming to my show in December, it meant the world to me. I will miss you for as long as I live.

Americans should oppose oppression of Tibetans
In 1995 the Dalai Lama, the spiritual leader of Tibet, recognized six-year-old Gedhun Choekyi Nyima as the reincarnation of the Panchen Lama. The Panchen
Lama is the second highest religious figure in Tibetan Buddhism, and young Gedhun was chosen to eventually fulfill this roll. Not long after this, however, Gedhun was kidnapped by the Chinese government in an attempt to demoralize and harm Tibetan Buddhism. Amnesty International Director James O'Dea responded to this by saying, "The government of China has been responsible for an unspeakable campaign of repression against the people of Tibet, their religion and culture. This little child should not be used as a pawn in China's efforts to control the Tibetan people." Gedhun has not been seen since.

opinion@kansan.com
This would not have happened if China had not illegally invaded the 2400-year-old country of Tibet in 1959. According to Chinese dissident Wei Jingsheng, Chinese soldiers told him they fought and killed entire villages, without leaving a single soul. They killed entire populations of tribes, one by one. Because of the invasion, 1.2 million Tibetans have died, Tibetan culture has been suffocated, and the Dalai Lama has been forced into exile in India. Slave labor and torture are common in Tibet's prisons, and many of the prisoners are there because of their refusal to give up their culture and religion.
Although life in Tibet is better than it was 40 years ago, it is still unacceptably oppressed. After a recent visit to Tibet, Rep. Frank R. Wolf described Tibetans as living under boot to heel subjugation. Because the Virginia congressman wanted to see Tibet as a tourist and not a politician, he masqueraded as a non-political vis-
When he returned to the U.S., Wolf reported the conditions in Tibet.
itor. Once there, he was able to talk to Tibetans without being under the watchful eye of China.
"In Tibet, humane progress is not even inching along and repressed people live under unspeakably brutal conditions in the dim shadow of international awareness," he said. "The inescapable conclusion is that China is swallowing Tibet."
Furthermore, he said that there was no freedom — period. Sen. Daniel Patrick Moynihan furthered Wolf's comments by adding that China rules Tibet with a "Stalinoid dementia."
In response to China's rule, an unusual assortment of people have banded together in an attempt to save Tibet. In the U.S., a variety of people, from the Beastie Boys to Sen. Jesse Helms, have declared their support for a free Tibet. Another group that formed was Students for a Free Tibet, of which I am a member and president of at the University of Kansas. Although the group is less than a year old, the national office has existed since 1994. Students for a Free Tibet has grown to have more than 350 organizations worldwide. An important point is that the group is not anti-China but pro-Tibet. The actions of the Chinese Government should not reflect on the average Chinese person or Chinese-American. What should be reflected on, however, is the world's need to help Tibet. It no longer can help itself.
To raise awareness for Tibet, our KU chapter will fast and will hold a rally on April 25th, which is the Panchen Lama's 9th birthday.
We cannot, however, do any of this alone. Even though Students for a Free Tibet can raise awareness, it is the American public that must tell its leaders Tibet is living under a dark haze of suffering that is unacceptable.

Editorial wrong about Snow Hall printing
Feedback
In regard to your editorial about the computer laboratories, there is an error of fact with respect to the lab in Snow Hall.
I assume you are referring to 210 Snow, the lab dedicated to our service courses EECS 128 and EECS 138.
No fee is charged for printing in that lab.

Kansas to make his draft announcement from the University of Kansas.
Pierce has an entire life outside of Jayhawk basketball. Why doesn't he deserve to make the announcement where he wants?
His reasoning is his own, and we, as loyal fans, should respect him for doing what he felt was right for him at the time.
Kansas fans are the greatest, I agree. But sometimes we seem to expect our players' lives to revolve around Jayhawk basketball in a way that is not only unrealistic, but bordering on pathological.
Rally chant not what Kansan reported
Although I was very happy to see an article about last Wednesday's Affirmative Action rally on the front page of The University Daily Kansan, the first sentence was an error. The chant used to begin the march was "Stop the war on the poor," not "Go to war," as was reported.
I feel this is much more than a semantic difference, as many of the rally's participants embrace pacifist ideologies that encourage ending wars. Thank you to all who attended, and please remember that activism lasts long after a rally.

New GTA teaching limit could affect students' funds
By Susie Gura
sguru@kanson.com
Kanson staff writer
New graduate teaching assistants may be searching the classifieds when they reach a 10-semester teaching limit.
The University of Kansas is establishing a 10-semester limit on graduate teaching assistantships, forcing newer GTAs to finish their degrees in a restricted amount of time
Sandy Sciascia, GTA in biology who began teaching last fall, will be affected by the limit, and she said she favored it.
"I don't think it is bad," she said.
"It makes you get your work done faster. I hope to be gone in five years anyway."
GTAs who began teaching in the fall of 1997 will be the first to be affected by the limit. Those who began teaching before that time will be unaffected by the policy.
"I would not be able to teach next
semester if this was the case when I began teaching," said Stephen Mathis, GTA in Western Civilization.
Provost David Shulenburger said the limit was prompted by a need for students to finish programs faster. He said departments would need to redesign programs to allow students to finish.
Dennis Karpowitz, associate professor of psychology, said many students did not graduate in five years because they were able to fulfill the requirements in that amount of time.
Karpowitz said he did not see changes being made in his department to respond to the new limits.
"We are not in a situation to reduce requirements," he said. "Our students will be less competitive if we lower our requirements."
Mathis also said he was unsure schools would make the necessary adjustments with the new limits and an easier curriculum could decrease the value of the degree.
"If you come from a department that has an easier degree, it will have less value on the market," he said.
Mathis, who is in his fifth year of teaching, said he would have had to find another job or an alternative form of income if he had been affected by the limit.
"I would have had to take out loans, but I probably would not make enough money to pay them back." Mathis said.
Jim Leiker, GTA in history, is also in his fifth year of teaching. He said he would not have been able to finish his degree if the limits had been imposed for him, because he would not have had the money to pay for his education.
"I would try to find a teaching position at a community college or a four-year institution, but they are limited and pay little," Lecker said.
GTAs said funding for their educations was important because without it, they would not be able to make ends meet.
Deadline looms for grad theses

It is crunch time for graduate students struggling to finish thesis papers before graduation.
Graduate students completing their education this spring are working to finish their theses and final examinations in time for the walk down the hill. Theheses and dissertations are due April 27.
Three to five committee members from each school will examine each student's thesis, said Marc Mahios, professor of teaching and leadership.
"Now we are working with students on the final editing and writing of their theses," Mahlios said.
Sheryl Adelman, Lawrence graduate student, said it was much easier to make thesis revisions on a computer screen, compared to a standard typewriter.
"It is hard for professors to feel
sorry for graduate students," Adelman said.
The College of Liberal Arts and Sciences Graduate Division recommends students bring a final draft of their theses to their office for format approval before making final copies.
"It is a very busy time for us," said Rae Ann Brown, secretary for the College Graduate Division.
A thesis must follow a certain format and requirements, and every school follows the same University policy for accepting theses.
A specific type of paper has to be used with the correct type. Footnotes and illustrations must follow the format and two unbound copies must be turned in to the College Graduate Division.
"It gets frustrating late at night when something is not right," Adelman said. "You have to make sure everything is formatted correctly."
Graduate students also must make sure their final examination is scheduled with enough time to

make the necessary corrections to their theses. Students also need to check with the department and make sure all work is completed and grades have been sent to the College Graduate Division.
Despite all of the work and time involved, some graduate students say writing a theses is a great learning experience.
"It is a great satisfaction and relief to have it done," Adelman said. "It is great to see your work in publishable form."

"If students only download information and do not synthesize the experience, it's going to be a problem," Johnson assures. "You might as well have a virtual wife or a virtual husband, a virtual Big Mac downloaded, a virtual French dinner."
Johnson points to a CD player sitting on his desk, which is, like the computer, obscured by papers and other materials. Conceding to technology, Johnson says that in the past he has brought the CD player into
one of his classes to play some music but that he does not like how the device changes the mood.
"Every time I bring a machine into my class like this, it kills the intellectual discourse," Johnson says. The students become passive, he says, rather than engaging in discussion.
through space." he says
Johnson says he provides experiences instead of audio-video presentations. For a lesson about Renaissance music and dance, Johnson takes his students to the campus dance studio.
During these lessons, everyone including Johnson — removes their shoes and learns some dances.
"The students actually experience with their own body what it is like to deal with other bodies moving
In another class, Johnson has his students sketch an 18th century table that the University owns. "Even though we can, through computation, produce wonderful three-dimensional holograms, it's not the same thing as looking at the cast of lights on a gilded surface." Johnson savs.
Johnson recognizes that other technologies have been used for a long time in teaching. But sometimes, Johnson says, it is not necessary to use the latest inventions. He does not teach in classrooms that have replaced chalkboards with marker boards. "The gray — the very deep, lovely, soft gray — of the blackboard and the white chalk is wonderful," he says. "It is already
the maximum of a certain kind of technology."
Erasing old methods
Chalk is about as fancy as Greg Shepherd gets, too. Shepherd, 41, associate professor of communications studies, has taught for 15 years in a department known for its promotion of online courses. But Shepherd describes himself as the yellow light of caution when it comes to using multimedia technology in education.
"In the classroom ... I am about as close as you can get to being technology-free," Shepherd says. "I teach a large lecture class in which I never use a microphone. I never use an overhead. The highest form of technology I use is a piece of chalk."
Shepherd believes that multimedia technology creates distance between students and teachers, and he thinks distance is counteractive to effective instruction.
"Good teaching is all about creating closeness," Shepherd says. "Good teaching is all very personal. It's all about treating students uniquely."
Shepherd worries about the day that online courses replace classroom teaching. "You can kind of see it coming; the day in which I teach a class from my office to students who are in the same building. It seems insane." he says.
But Shepherd concedes that no matter how anyone feels about online technology, it is here. And he knows that he will have to start using it in his courses.
direction we're going to keep moving. So it becomes my job, as somebody who's very cautious about this, to do this so that I can understand what are the pitfalls, what are the dangers." Shepherd's goal is to make the technology serve good teaching and learning rather than to have those functions serve the technology. Making it all work.
Making it all click
"There's no sense fighting this," Shepherd says. "This is clearly the
Annette Stanton, 42, associate professor of psychology, also admits to not using much multimedia technology in her teaching.
"I'm still sort of a dinosaur," she says. But, Stanton adds, "Next fall I'll definitely be on the technology bandwagon."
In the fall, Stanton expects to use PowerPoint, a computer software package for presentations, when she teaches a lecture class in Budig Hall.
She has never used PowerPoint before. Right now, Stanton leads her lecture classes by writing information on transparencies displayed by an overhead projector, a method that won't work as well in high-tech Budig Hall, she says.
Stanton does not believe that technology is pressuring her to change her teaching. "It's something I've been interested in and would like to try," she explains. "So I'd say it's more a catalyst than pressure."
She will watch closely to make sure that PowerPoint does not keep her from imparting all of the necessary information to her students. "If I want to go off on a side path that's relevant to the topic, but I don't have Power Point slides on it, I don't want to be constrained because I'm tied to my slides," Stanton says.
Nor does she want her students to stop paying attention when she discusses a topic for which she has not created a PowerPoint slide. "These are not magic words." Stanton says of the images on a computer screen. She says she will have to remind students that they will have to learn the material, regardless of whether she presents it in PowerPoint or extemporaneously.
Wiring for life
To some professors, the debate about whether to use multimedia and computer technology in teaching is pointless.
"We can have many opinions about this," says Ron Ausch, associate professor of education. "But if students begin to opt for online delivery of instruction, and corporations find that people who are trained this way work just as well, then what we all think doesn't make any difference."
Aust, co-director of South Central Regional Technology in Education Consortium, believes that some types of classes work best online.
"When classroom learning becomes less social, then the viability of online learning increases," he says. Liberal arts classes, such as those taught by Johnson, are difficult to teach online at this point. Aust admits. But he also thinks that technological advances will make online humanities classes possible.
"For the most part, we can see on the horizon new technology that will be able to emulate many of the interactions that occur in the classroom," Aux says.
He also believes that looking at new ways of teaching courses, such as incorporating multimedia elements or putting them online, is valuable for teaching. "The fact that we are exploring the value of this new approach to teaching will let us know what's best about the traditional approach." Aust says.
But Ted Johnson believes that the traditional approach already works best. In fact, he says it has worked since the time of the ancient Greeks, so he sees no reason to use online and multimedia approaches just because they are the current trends.
His perception of the University holds true to the ancient ideal
Johnson says, "Why not look at the University of Kansas and Mount Oread as a classical university, just like the University of Athens? A place where people can actually exploit the possibilities of a real environment, of discussing real ideas, walking around and disserting about them."

One center moves on; other center moves in

The University of Kansas Endowment Association will be making a short- but pricey -move.
The Endowment Association has grown from 30 employees to more than 100 employees in the past 20 years, necessitating more space, said John Scarffe, director of communications for the Endowment Association.
The Endowment Association will remain on West Campus but move from Youngberg Hall, up the road toward the Lied Center, to a new building just south of Nichols Hall. The new building, which still is under construction, costs $5 million.
; The move will take place during a weekend later this month.
The new location's 52,000-squarefoot interior will afford more space than Youngberg Hall's 24,400 square feet, Scarfe said. The move simply had to occur, he said.
"The current building is no longer adequate," he said. "We're totally out of space in this building. We've
gone from managing $7.5 million in 1974 to $36 million today."
Additionally, Scarffe said, the move would allow the Endowment Association to consolidate all its operations.
"We're starting the process now," he said. "People are starting to pack their stuff up. Most importantly, this will allow us to centralize our operation again. Because space has been limited, it's caused extra stress, extra work — this will allow us to work more efficiently.
The project was conceived in 1955, and construction began in February 1996. Because the Endowment Association is a private entity, the University's architect was not utilized. Nearing, Staats, Prelonger and Jones, a Shawnee architecture firm, was hired for the design. Topea's Winner Construction is building the new structure.
After the Endowment Association moves out of Youngberg Hall, the University's Center for Research, Inc., will move in.
Like the Endowment Association, the center was getting too big to remain where it was, said Bob Bannhill, the center's president.

The center's ability to help faculty—its purpose—was hindered, he said. They plan to move in in mid-June.
"There are no coincidences," Barnhill said. "We have folks in Strong Hall, Nichols Hall, and Carruth-O'Leary. The University foresaw correctly that we needed to have all these groups together. We'll have better cohesion internally and externally. At the least, parking will be easier there than at Strong Hall."

Plains states to hook up to larger, faster network
By Aaron Knopf

Kansan staff writer
When people think of the Great Plains, the images that come to mind are vast expanses of land, tornadoes and tumbleweeds. Data networking may soon become part of that picture.
By August 1998, the University of Kansas will be connected to a new high-speed network linking Arkansas, Kansas, Nebraska, North Dakota, Oklahoma and South Dakota.
The Great Plains network will provide research institutions in these states with fast connectivity to each other and the Internet.
The speed of the Great Plains network will provide research institutions in these states with
fast connectivity to each other and the Internet.
Researchers at the University will have efficient access to resources not available now.
"The EROS Data Center (a division of the U.S. Geological Survey) is one of the premier data centers in the country, and it will be on the Great Plains network," said Jerry Niebaum, director of Academic Computing Services.
The use of satellite imagery data from the center requires significant bandwidth because of its size and complexity, Niebaum said.
The Great Plains network also positions University researchers to be online information suppliers, Niebaum said.
Leonard Kristhalka, director of the Museum of Natural History, is working on a project that will
take advantage of the new network.
"For the Great Plains states, we are planning a project to have online all the plants and animals of the Great Plains as documented by museums in the United States," Kristalka said.
Without the speed and bandwidth of the new network, the University could not consider putting such a large database online, he said.
In addition to linking the states, the network also should connect 11 institutions, including the University of Kansas, to the network run by the National Science Foundation for the Internet2 project. This network is known as the vBNS, or very high-speed backbone network service.
"The existing Internet is what's known as a best-effort network."
said Rick Summerhill, executive director of the Great Plains network. "We want to go beyond that to build a network that has quality of service guaranteed."
That is the goal of the Internet2 project, he said.
If a professor needs to participate in an online lecture, Niebaum said, that professor needs to know the necessary bandwidth will be available continuously. he said.
Only those institutions that have received grants from the National Science Foundation to use the vBNS will have Internet2 connectivity, Niebaum said. He said the University was likely to receive the vBNS grant.
But the new network also will provide faster connectivity to today's Internet. Niebaum said.
"For the Great Plains states, we are planning a project to have online all the plants and animals of the Great Plains as documented by museums in the United States."

will provide the circuits between
the networks of the six participating
states, Niebaum said. He said
the cost of the payments to Qwest
for these circuits would be about
$90,000 per month.
Leonard Kristalka
No vendor has been chosen to connect the network to the Internet at this time. he said.
Niebaum also has served as principal investigator for the Great Plains network grant. The grant, which comes from the
National Science Foundation's Experimental Program to Stimulate Cooperative Research, is about $1.48 million, he said.
Niebaum said in addition to the National Science Foundation grant, organizations in the six participating states had contributed money to the project.
The Kansas Technology Enterprise Corporation gave $200,000 and the Kansas Research and Education Network added $20,000, he said.

The University of Kansas Jayhawk might have a French cousin.
Footix, the official mascot of the 1990 World Cup soccer tournament in France, bears a resemblance to the Jayhawk. Footix is similar to the Jayhawk in that it is red, blue and yellow. Footix is a bird, and its proportions are similar to that of the Jayhawk.
Howard Sypher, professor of communications, saw the mascot more than a year ago on a European Web site. He said he immediately noticed the resemblance to the Jayhawk, but did not think there would be a conflict between the two.
very appealing," the release states. "They see him as radiating contentment and satisfaction, and he comes over a warm and affectionate character who inspires confidence. Above all, it was important that they should be easily pronounced, and have absolutely no negative connotations, in the world's principal languages."
While the resemblance is striking, there are enough differences to eliminate most of the confusion, said Paul Vander Tuig, administrator of trademark licensing at the University.
Sypher said the identity crisis could pay off for the University.
The key issue is confusion, and because Footit has a soccer ball and occasionally the phrase "France '96" emblazoned on its chest, that confusion is alleviated. Vander Tülsig said.
KU
"What has happened is that it came to our attention in late 1996 when they announced the logo," he said.
"Clearly, this is something that has a major resemblance to the Jayaawk," he said. "We need to take advantage of that resemblance. It would be interesting for the World Cup to be associated with a prestigious institution like the University of Kansas."
虎熊
"We did explore it to some degree. We spoke with some attorneys and they were of the mind that it wasn't enough confusion to warrant litigation."
If it had come to litigation, there would have been difficulties resolving a trademark dispute in France, he said.
"It's a gray area," he said. "We do have registration of the Jayhawk in France. But there's not much chance
of overturning a trademark examiner."
Vander Truig said the mascot would have little effect on the University.
"According to 83 percent of the 12- to 15-year-olds asked, the cockeel is
According to a France '98 press release, Footix is a cockerel — a roofer. The roofer was chosen because it appealed to the French and the name had to be catchy in any language.
Students explore local link to El Salvador
By Marcelo Vilela
mvilela@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Lawrence can be proud of its sister city EI Papaturro, EL Salvador.
That's the message that Mary Copley, Kansas State University graduate student, conveyed last night after a dinner sponsored by the Latin American Solidarity Organization.
Twelve people attended the Salvadorian meal of black beans and rice, served at the Ecumenical Christian Ministries building.
B. H.
The organization brought Cople to campus to share her experiences of her eight-week visit to El Salvador last summer. During her informal lecture, she described the public transportation system, the roads, the social setting in El Papaturro and the living conditions.
Her visit to El Papaturu was part of Kansas State's international community service program, designed to link sister cities.
"If had been through what they had been through, I'd be a true cynic," she said. "But they keep looking forward instead of looking back."
The focus of the sister city project is to build solidarity, Copley said. She said that the people in El Papaturro were happy to know that they had support from Kansas.
Her slides displayed the majority of the community in El Papaturo as rural. People there cannot afford meat and do not have plumbing, but they are socially active, she said.
"The men are really interested that women have an active role in government," Coppie said. "El Papaturro's community is very well organized."

Copple also interviewed former guerrilla fighters and refugees and organized the interviews into books.
"The kids that are growing now don't have a vivid recollection of the war." Copple said, referring to the country's internal strife in the 1980s. "Their parents don't want them to lose that recollection."
Copple said that the children who were born during the war had fallen behind in their education.
Catherine Schroek, Oak Park, Ill., freshman, attended the dinner. "I spent some time in Honduras, and a lot of things were similar to what I have seen there," Schrozek said. "Here in the States you don't hear
about these things."
Luzi Novais, Culuba, Brazil, sophomore, also attended. Novais said visiting a poor country could help students see beyond life at the University.
"When someone volunteers instead of just hearing about how poor people live, this person will realize the experiences those people pass through to survive," Novais said.

ISSUE STUDENT THE SENATE OF ANNEX SENATE
9A
Peer escort, officers top coalitions' safety lists
By Laura Roddy
roddy@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Both Student Senate coalitions propose to increase campus safety measures, but they disagree on where Senate efforts should be focused.
The Delta Force coalition plans to implement a program called SafeWalk in which escorts walk students between on-campus locations at night. Three or four pairs of uniformed students, each including one male and one female, would carry flashlights and radios and patrol designated areas on campus from 7 p.m. to 2 a.m.
Amy Cummins, Delta Force candidate for a graduate seat, said a similar program was used when she attended the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill.
Catherine
"Students feel safe and comfortable escorted by their peers." Cummins said. "I'm confident it would work here."
Butler: Independent
Delta Force collected more than 1,000 signatures in support of the program The
coalition petitioned Monday to put a referendum on the ballots asking whether students would support the program with a $1 fee increase.
Brad Finkeldei, chairman of the elections commission, said the signatures on the petition had to be verified before the referendum
could be placed on the ballot.
ALEXANDRA LARRY
Heath: Delta Force
"We really
We really see the SafeWalk program as a complement to current programs," she said.
The Campus Cause coalition's proposal includes expanding Saferide's operating hours and increasing the number of vehicles. The coalition plans to seek corporate sponsors to pay for the
increases.
Campus Cause also plans to lobby the Kansas Legislature for money to finance additional campus police officers.
"The best way to provide safety is with more armed officers," said
Yoder: Campus Cause
John Vagli, Campus Cause candidate for a residential seat.
Campus Cause also wants the administration to increase campus lighting and blue phones without increasing student fees.
"I don't think that students should have to pay for lighting on campus," said Kevin Yoder, Campus Cause presidential candidate. "Safety is a basic necessity."

Aaron Profitt, independent Nunemaker candidate, also said he thought safety measures could improve.

"I like the idea of an escort system using students," Profitt said.
He said financial impact needed to be considered with any plan and the escort system could be the most cost-effective.
■ Expand Safeferide's operating hours and number of vehicles
■ Increase lighting and blue phones
■ Lobby for more police officers
Wendy Butler, independent Nunemaker candidate, said she
supported the expansion of Saferide if it would not increase student fees.
Butler said she and Dion Jones, Campus Cause candidate for a non-traditional student seat, had been working on a bus route to the bars downtown on weekends.
Senate elections stir debate about fee increases
She said a long wait for Saferide could lead students to drive drunk.
"I think the major problem with Saferide right now is that you have to wait so long." Butler said.

Student Senate elections start Wednesday, and one of the candidates' issues is how to deal with fee increases.
Campus Cause wants to send all fee increases to a referendum for a campus-wide vote. Delta Force wants to increase student participation through surveys and forums.
"Students should have a say
Scott Kaiser, Nunemaker senator, transportation coordinator and Campus Cause candidate for student body vice-president, said although students did not have the chance to approve fee increases, they would have a voice if increases were sent to referendum.
before they pay." Kaiser said.
During last year's elections, Senate voted on a referendum concerning graduate teaching assistant health care, Nogle said. This year, the issue on the ballot will be the continuation of residence hall polling sites.
Emily Heath, Center for Community Outreach co-director and Delta Force candidate for student body president, said increasing student participation through grassroots activity would be better.
"Sending fees to referendum every time would not be cost-effective," Heath said. "Holding forums would inform students about the issue in a neutral way and allow them to have input."
A referendum vote during Senate elections would cost $400, the amount needed to print 5,000 ballots, said Audrey Nogle, elections commissioner. A referendum at a separate time would cost at least $3,025 for 5,000 ballots and three polling sites.
Delta Force collected more than 1,000 signatures on a petition to add the issue of raising the campus safety fee to the ballot next week.
Anthony Nicholson, Delta Force candidate for an engineering seat, said the Campus Cause referendum proposal would not benefit students because it was too expensive.
Nogle said the issue would be on the ballot if all of the signatures were verified.
"It would either cost students $3,000 every time we vote, or we'd have to wait until the end of the year to vote," Nicholson said. "This would cripple Senate if it had to wait until the end of the
year for the fee increases."
Ben Walker, Nunemaker senator and Campus Cause candidate for a Nunemaker seat, said referendum costs should not be a problem.
"If the fee is not urgent, then it doesn't have to be voted on until the end of the year," Walker said. "If the fee is urgent, then we should hold a special referendum to allow students to have a voice."
Kaiser agreed costs should not deter referendums.
"Paying $3,000 for a referendum would be pennies for each student." Kaiser said.
The campus fee has increased from $139.50 in 1988-1989 to $214 for next year.
Nicole Skalla, subcommittee member and Delta Force candidate for a Nunemaker seat, said each year, three or four of the groups financed by the campus fee had
Campus fee components
The campus fee for 1998-1999 includes fees for student health operations, facilities, maintenance, repairs, equipment and facility additions; child care center construction; Student Senate; environmental improvement; student union building renovations; women's and non-revenue intercollegiate sports; student recreational services and centers; sports clubs; student media; campus lighting; educational opportunity and campus transportation.
their portion of the fee reviewed.
This year, one of the decisions included increasing the campus transportation fee by $1, she said.
There are three other ways to acquire financing for large projects, said Scott Sullivan, student body president.
If the issue involves students and faculty, it can go through Senate Executive committee and University Council, Sullivan said. If the issue involves students, they can ask for financing through the administration.
Another financing option is to request funds from the state legislature.
"To receive money from the state legislature, you need to get whatever you want into the governor's recommendations, and that comes out in January," Sullivan said. "To get it into the governor's recommendations, you need the help of the Board of Regents."
But even with the governor and the board's support, the legislature won't necessarily fund the issue, he said.

Instead, people were searching for the body of Jesus of Nazareth. A man who had claimed to be God. A man who said he would prove his deity by bodily rising from the dead. No other religious leader has made such a claim and backed it up with such an event.

Sixth-ranked recruiting class to join women
By Kevin C. Wilson
Kansan sportswriter
During the first days of the late signing period, the Kansas women's basketball team failed to add any new faces to this year's recruiting class.
Kansas secured four players during the fall signing period for next season and has two possible scholarships remaining to offer this spring.
The Jayhawks' recruiting class is ranked No. 6 in the country, and Kansas
utive classes ranked in the top 10.
Players who have already committed to the Kansas women's basketball team:
Dalchon Brown
6-foot-5, center, Virginia Beach, Va.
(Green Run High School)
Brown was named Green Run High School's most valuable player as a junior and is listed
the No.1 player in Virginia.
Washington said Brown would add some needed size to her front line.
Brown averaged 14.7 points, 11.7 rebounds and 8.0 steals per game last season and chose Kansas instead of Old Dominion.
"She's a young player who will continue to help us build size in the paint," Washington said. "Dalchon has a tremendous amount of potential."
Kristin Geoffrey, 6-6, center, Los Alamitos, Calif. (Los Alamitos High School)
Washington said she was excited about what Geoffrey would bring to the Javhawks.
Geoffrey averaged 13.4 points and 8.0 rebounds per game last season and is listed as the No. 6 high school post player in the country.
"Kristin brings great size at 6-6, and she is a very mobile 6-player," Washington said. "She runs the floor very well and her great hands give her the ability to do many things. I truly believe her best basketball is ahead of her. On top of that, she is a fine student with a 3.8 grade point average."
Geoffrey chose Kansas instead of Vanderbilt and Navy and said she was impressed with the support basketball receives in Lawrence.
"Everybody is totally into basketball in that town," Geoffrey said after Kansas's Late Night event on Oct. 17.
Katie Hannon, 6-2, guard, Rochester, N. Y. (Gates/Chili High School)
Hannon averaged 17.4 points and 6.0 rebounds per game and the shooting guard was named a preseason honorable mention pick by Street & Smith magazine. Hannon is a three-time all-county selection and was a second team all-greater Rochester member last season.
Washington said Hannon's outside marksmanship would improve the Jayhawks' perimeter game.
"Katie has a tremendous advantage because of her size." Washington said. "She is a great player with great shooting ability."
Selena Scott, 5-6, point guard,
Austin, Texas (St. Michael's Academy)
Scott is rated as the top player in Texas by the state's recruiting publications and was named a USA Today and a Street & Smith preseason All-American earlier this fall.
Scott averaged 18.2 points and 6.3 rebounds per game last season and led her team to a 31.5 overall record and the Texas state championship.
Scott is a three-time all-state pick and has been named a Texas all-star twice. She was ranked 42nd in the nation by the Blue Star Recruiting Guide.
Washington said the point guard position was a major area of focus for this recruiting class and she was excited to have landed one of the top players at that spot.
"She will bring us not just a strong point guard that can run, but a shooting aspect as well," Washington said. "She has great shooting range and is very effective behind the three-point line."

Landlocked Jayhawks find recruiting rough
By Kory Burke
Kansan sportswriter
Slowly but surely, the Kansas women's rowing team is making a name for itself.
Rowing teams in the Midwest are familiar with Kansas, but outside these geographic confines, rowing in Kansas is thought to be a novelty.
Jennifer Adams, team captain and Lawrence senior, experienced the ignorance of those outside the Midwest last October at one of the world's largest regattas. The Head of the Charles regatta, held in Boston each year, draws hundreds of teams and elite competition from around the world.
"Some guys saw us wearing our jackets and ran with us while we were warming up, asking us if we rowed in sewage." she
said. "Then during our race everyone was cheering for us because they thought of us as such an oddity."
Andrew Rothenberg, a student at Emory University in Atlanta, was wearing a Kansas Crew shirt last summer, much to the amazement of his boss at the golf course where he worked.
"I went to work with the shirt on and my boss just started laughing," he said. "All he could say was 'Rowing in Kansas.' Is that like skI Iowa?"
Cattoth says there is one thing missing from his team that will make them a frequent visitor in the NCAA championships: recruits.
strong teams."
Margaret Gardel, a rower for Brown University, said her team's visibility among high school prospects gave it an ear on the competition.
The Ivy League schools in the East traditionally are the dominant teams. Most of the schools rely on recruits from the coast to be the backbone of their teams.
Even though Kansas still may be obscure in the rowing world, coach Rob Catloth thinks the Midwest has teams that can't be overlooked.
"Some guys saw us wearing our jackets and ran with us while we were warming up, asking us if we rowed in sewage. Then during our race everyone was cheering for us because they thought of us as such an oddity."
"I think the major advantage we have over teams in other parts of the country is we have more interest from the students," she said. "Students on the East Coast know we have traditionally strong programs, so they come here."
"We're training as intensely and seriously as anyone else in the country," he said. "The Midwest is producing very
Gardel said the recruits served as extra

"Since most of our team just started rowing in college, we learn a lot from them," she said. "Having them as examples is important."
Catloth said he didn't feel threatened the Ivy League. Kansas has a lot to offer to prospective rowers, he said.
"When we bring recruits from the East in, they see how beautiful the campus is and that they can get a good education here," he said. "They also see
"Most of the kids on the East Coast row on bays where they don't have a smooth surface to practice on." he said. "Here they see how much of an advantage it is to

row on the Kansas River where it's smooth, or at Clinton Lake."
The women hope to capitalize on their hard work and produce better results this weekend after a sub-par performance last weekend in Iowa, where they won only two of 11 races. In the first home regatta of the season they will face tough competition from Texas, Kansas State, Tulsa and Creighton.
The races start at 10 a.m. at Clinton Lake.
"We had a frustrating weekend so this weekend we want to build upon that and put to use all our hard work from this spring." Adams said.
Catloth chalks last week's disappointing finish up to the team's youth.
"We're predominantly a sophomore team. We're going to have breakdowns," he said "This week we've been working on the better concentration and mental preparation that we have been lacking."

Chicago guard to visit next week; Kansas tops his list of schools

Kansan sportwriter
Marlon London, a 6-foot-3 shooting guard from St. Joseph's High School in Chicago, could be the next high school basketball prospect to sign with Kansas during the late signing period.
London, who will visit Kansas on April 16, told the Chicago Tribune that he would sign a letter-of-intent with the Jayhawks while in Lawrence if he liked the trip.
He wanted to sign early, but only smaller schools such as Indiana State and Valparaiso showed interest.
"I felt like if I had a good season, the big offers would come in," London told the Tribune. "I just had to come out and show everybody I could play. I had to show my talents but play within a team concent."
PETER E. MORRIS
London averaged 17.5 points, six rebounds and four assists last season. He said that he favored Kansas to Minnesota.
Williams; Recruiting scheduling keeping head coach busy
The Jayhawks, who already have been contacted by event organizers, may play Arizona or Stanford, Connecticut, Duke, Kentucky, Rhode Island or Utah.
Indiana, Connecticut and Penn State.
Although London has a qualifying GPA, he needs to improve his ACT score by one point. His coach, Gene Pingatore, told the Chicago Tribune he was confident that London prepared well enough to qualify when he took the ACT again last Saturday.
- The Jayhawks may play in the Great Eight again next season, despite their second-round loss to Rhode Island.
Other basketball news:
The Great Eight annually features teams that advanced to the Elite Eight of the NCAA Tournament the previous season, but it prohibits more than one team from a conference from entering. Arizona and Stanford from the Pacific 10 and North Carolina and Duke from the Atlantic Coast Conference made the Elite Eight last season.
Kansas, a draw for ticket sales and ESPN coverage, would play anyone except for North Carolina, if indeed the Tar Heels compete. Kansas coach Roy Williams has said in the past that he would not intentionally schedule his alma mater.
Assistant coach mulls job options for future
By Tommy Gallagher

Kansas sportswriter
Matt Doherty, Kansas men's basketball assistant coach, recently interviewed for head coaching position at the University of North Carolina Charlotte.
He must wait for another chance. The 49ers chose to stay within the
program, selecting UNC Charlotte assistant coach Bobby Lutz for the position. He will succeed Melvin Watkins, who accepted the head coaching position at Texas A&M.
Doherty, an assistant coach at Kansas for six years, has been the focus of several coaching rumors during the past season.
Doherty: UNC Charlotte opted for other finalist
Doherty did not formally interview for any of those coaching positions.
Before last season, there were whispers of Doherty leaving for Arizona State. Most recently, he had been named among the candidates for head coaching positions at Virginia and Providence.
"I have not been offered the job." Doherty said. "I have had discussions with UNC Charlotte and I think it's a good situation and the people there are first class. If things don't work out for me, I think a lot of Bobby Lutz, who is a good friend."
Doherty told the Charlotte Observer on Wednesday he wanted the UNC Charlotte job but he would not be crushed if he did not get it.
Doherty said he felt comfortable with the responsibility of being a head coach in the future.
"I don't feel like I have to take a job." Doherty said. "I want to get a situation that is just right for me and my family. But I believe I am more and more ready
Whether Doherty leaves for a head coaching position this offseason could determine the future of Kansas assistant coach Joe Holladay, who was hired as a restricted-earnings coach before the 1993-94 season.
Holladay: Tenure as restricted-earnings coach to expire
Holladay has been at Kansas for five years, which is the

Should Doherty leave for a head coaching position during the offseason, Hollday could slide into the assistant position vacated by Doherty.
limit for restricted-earnings coaches at an institution as set by the NCAA. Now he must be reassigned to another position here or find employment at another school to comply with NCAA rules.
Kansas head coach Roy Williams testified Wednesday in U.S. District Court in Kansas City, Kan., against the NCAA's restricted-earnings rules. The rules restrict earnings of designated coaches to $12,000 per year in institutional salary and $4,000 in basketball camp income.
Williams said the NCAA's rules were unfair given the $50,000 and $60,000 salaries of other assistants. Holladay's salary jumped to $36,000 when the rule was rescinded in May 1995.
"As far as I know, there are not many places in America where you're limited to a certain amount of money," Williams told The Associated Press after his testimony.
J
The plaintiffs in the class-action case are seeking $30 million in damages to almost 1,900 coaches. The NCAA said it owed 58 coaches about $800,000 total.

Today's birthday (April 10)
Just as the past year has had its ups and downs, this year will be the same One tip, however: Do not buy excess monkeys. They throw their feces.
Aries: Today is a 4.
Your intense inward focus on your health may be making things seem worse than they really are. Turn your gaze outward and look for new projects. Your mood might cause co-workers to be abrupt with you.
Taurus; Today is an 8.
You are wealthy and powerful when others give you the attention and respect you deserve. Being a good host is surprisingly effortless today. Flowers are an inexpensive but effective means of communication.
Gemini: Today is a 7.
Be very literal with your words during important discussions with children. Pay special attention to signals today, whether in conversation or on the road. Asking too many questions could make someone nervous.
Cancer: Today is a 7.
This is a good day to hatch those ideas on which you have been sitting in the comfort of your nest. The bread has risen in the oven, its scent attracting wondering noses far and wide. The fruit is ripe and ready for the market.
Leo: Today is a 9.
You may please a boss or client today by keeping your strong personality out of business matters. Some thing you generally value does not seem important right now. Change something in your diet if your lower energy level concerns you.
Virgo: Today is an 8.
You are in an unique position to identify and control the details that make up your life. Tidy up, take inventory and retool and rebuild your system. Logic rules your world today, and everything makes perfect sense.
Libra: Today is a 6.
Scorpio: Today is a 9.
Anything more than one-on-one interaction could be too much for you to handle today. What begins as amusing may become overwhelming if it persists. An excess of female energy unbalances a system.
Sagittarius: Today is a 3.
Today you find that giving is more powerful than receiving. You have a surplus of something that is in great demand among those in your community. Friends rally around an innovative idea.
Capricorn: Today is an 8.
An authority figure is driving you crazy, although he may not know it. Read between the lines in legal or matter matters. This is a good day to find something that makes you laugh long and hard.
Aquarius: Today is a 2.
Personal preferences may cloud your business dealings today. Listen to someone's intentions instead of the words they use. The unconventional approach is sometimes the best solution to a problem.
Go someplace today where they don't discuss politics and do a little research into human nature. You feel lucky, positive and willing to build something new. A moderate amount of self-discipline will help.
Pisces: Today is a 1.
C
It's not advisable to leap before you look, but today there may not be time to do anything else. Drink or drugs might slow your reflexes to dangerous levels. Be aware of your surroundings and the people with whom you might interact.

Tori Holmstein, a 5-foot-10 outside hitter, has signed a national letter of intent to play for the Jayhawks, Bechard announced yesterday. At Barton County, the sophomore was a first-team all-Jayhawk Conference selection and a second team all-reign pick.

Pendergast agreed to cooperate with FBI investigators and to work with the NCAA to educate students, athletes and others about the risks of gambling.
The maximum sentence for his crime is five years in prison and a $250,000 fine. Federal sentencing guidelines call for 15 to 21 months in prison, said Randall Samborn, spokesman for the U.S. Attorney's office. The government plans to recommend a shorter sentence than that but will not decide on a specific recommendation until the other cases are disposed of, Samborn said.
Former basketball player Dewey Williams has pleaded not guilty in the case, as has former football player Brian Ballarini, who was charged separately with running a bookmaking operation on Northwestern's campus. Brian Irving, also charged with sports bribery has pleaded not guilty as well.
Former basketball player Kenneth Dior Lee is cooperating with investigators. He has not yet entered a plea and is due in court April 20.

Bibby quickly showed his leadership capabilities in college, directing Arizona to the national championship as a freshman.

"I think he's ready," Atlanta Hawks scout Royce Yoeaee said. "He's going to have an adjustment period, like every one else. People don't realize how strong you have to be at that level. He has all the tools that you need, though."
Los Angeles Lakers executive vice president Jerry West said Bibby's style of play reminds him of Oscar Robertson, a fellow Hall of Famer who was a contemporary of West's in the NBA.
As a sophomore, he was a consensus first-team All-America and took the Wildcats to the NCAA Tournament's regional final before losing to Utah 86-61.
"He plays an old-fashioned game, which I think a lot of people like," West said. "He's a prospect, that's for sure."
Rob Babcock, player personnel director for the Minnesota Timberwolves, said Bibby has "areat potential."
"He understands the game. He's got great court vision. He understands how to play the point guard position and he can shoot it," he said. "His skill level is very, very high."

Kansan sportswriter
Senior day for the men and women's teams is tomorrow, but both could be competing without their ten seniors.
Enrique Abaroa has missed the majority of the season because of a sprained back and may not be 100 percent for this weekend.
Kylie Hunt missed the last two matches because of an inflamed lung. Kansas women's coach Roland Thornqvist said he was optimistic she would return but he was being realistic she might not be at her best.
It can only get better. Coach Mark Riley said, "But we have a veteran group, and we've had a couple of good practices. We have a good chance to get everything right for the Big 12 Tournament."
The men face Texas Tech tomorrow and Baylor on Sunday at Robinson Center and hope to bounce back from a defeat at Colorado last Sunday.
The team has been up and down this season. The loss of Abaroa is not the only loss that has affected the Jayhawks. Junior Fernando Sierra did not qualify for the season academically and junior Kenny Powell missed four matches earlier in the season.
Riley said he was impressed with the players who have shined in their absences.
"We have had three significant players out for significant lengths of time," Riley said. "We're going to improve in the long run. We have Uli Uribe playing better tennis than he's ever played. Xavier (Avila) is doing a good job at No. 1 singles."
Younger players were called to play more than they were expected to play and are still adjusting to the extra playing time. Riley said.
Despite their rocky start the Jayhawks are looking to finish strong against several ranked teams, including No. 25 Baylor
and No.9 Texas.
"We're still working on the whole package," Riley said. "I think some people are going to be pleasantly surprised with what's going to happen in the next few weeks."
The women's team also has had to play without their top single player the past two matches. Hunt practiced yesterday and is likely to play today.
The Jayhawks play Baylor today and Texas Tech tomorrow at Robinson Center. Last season they lost to Baylor 8-1.
"The loss last year really stung.
"Thornqvist said. "The kids will really be up to the challenge against Baylor."
The team has not lost a match since March 6 against Brigham Young but remaining focused against lower ranked teams would
not be a problem, Thornqvist said.
"We've been really good at focusing on the little things," he said.
"One of these days, one of those teams are going to be hot so we have to expect it."
The Jayhawks' strength lies in their ability to take the first points of the match from their opponents and build on that.
"We do a good job of jumping on them early and not letting up," Thornqvist said. "If we maintain that it's easy to stay on a roll."
Tomorrow there will be a recognition ceremony for the senior women, including Hunt, Christie Sim, and Maria Abatajoglou, at their last home match.
The men's last home match will be Sunday. Seniors Abaroa, Avila, Scott Marshall and Trent Tucker will be recognized.

Softball hopes to resurge in two weekend twin bills

Kansan sportswriter
After beginning the season ranked ninth in the nation, the Kansas softball team has fallen out of the Top 25 with a disappointing record of 21-24.
But the Jayhawks have moved into third in the Big 12 Conference by going 5-3 against the league's four Texas teams to kick off the conference schedule.
Kansas continues conference play this weekend against No. 8 Oklahoma State and No. 5 Oklahoma in two doubleheaders at noon and 2 p.m. tomorrow and Sunday at Jayhawk Field.
"It'll be a tough weekend," coach Tracy Bunge said. "Both Oklahoma and Oklahoma State are playing extremely well. We need to cut down on the mistakes. Our pitchers need to hit their spots and keep the ball out of the hitting zone. All three phases of our game need to be solid."
Last year, the Cowboys won three of four games against the Jayhawks, who trail the all-time series 33-43. Jamie Foutch leads the Oklahoma State attack, hitting .442 with six home runs and 19 RBI.
Kansas takes on Oklahoma State tomorrow. The Cowboys are fourth in the Big 12 with a 3-2 record against league opponents.
Kansas will battle Oklahoma on Sunday. The Sooners, standing second in the Big 12, are 34-8 overall and 4-1 in the conference. Oklahoma is riding a four-game winning streak going into a double header tomorrow against Missouri.
The Jayhawks, who went 3-2 against the Sooners last year, lead the all-time series 35-2.
Kansas has split seven of its 11 double headers this season. Bunge said mental mistakes in the late innings were hurting the Jayhawks.
Third baseman Sarah McCann is starting again after spending the majority of the season as a designated player to recover from an off-season shoulder surgery. In the last eight games, McCann has hit 444 with five runs scored and two RBI.
Pitcher Christy McPhail
raised her record above .500 with the win against Oklahoma City University on Tuesday. McPhail is now 12-11.
Kansas baseball head coach Bobby Randall learned how to be a major league-caliber middle infielder as a second baseman for the Minnesota Twins in the 1970s.
By John Blakely Wilson
Kansan sportswriter
Player moving up in his field
In three seasons at Kansas, he has had considerable success passing along these skills to players.
Second baseman Andy Juday follows in big footsteps in the Kansas infield this season. Shortstop Joe DeMarco led the Big 12 Conference last season with a .429 batting average, and second baseman Josh Kliner also led the conference in 1996 with a .438 average.
Juday, who played football, baseball and soccer at Canyon Del Oro High School in Tucson, Ariz., gave little thought to a Division I baseball career.
Juday lives up to the numbers of seasons past, leading the Jayhawks with a .374 batting average and ten doubles. Juday also plays solid defense — he leads all Kansas infielders with a .980 field percentage in committing just three errors.
"I wasn't drafted out of high school, and baseball was probably my second or third favorite sport."
Juday said. "I was just lucky the right guys saw me play and gave me a chance."
Baseball
Former Jayhawk head coach Dave Bingham saw Judy play and offered him a chance to play at Kansas. Juday said although Bingham had recruited him, Randall deserved credit for his development.
"Coach Randall and I worked all fall on my defense, and it's improved a lot," Juday said. "I've worked hard on improving my defensive skills, and he deserves credit for teaching me the right way to make plays."
Juday was a utility player as a freshman, hitting .289 and starting all over the infield. His bat caught fire last season, and he finished the season starting at second base with a .365 average, 10 home runs and 37 runs batted in.
"This is his first year as a fulltime starter, but he played a lot last year because of his bat." Randall said. "I've seen him struggle with his swing a bit this year, but other teams also know about him and pitch him differently."
Juday's power numbers have gone down this season after he slammed 10 home runs in the final 30 games of 1997. Juday has driven the ball hard, as evidenced by his team leading 10 doubles, but hasn't gotten it out of the park.
"I get a hard time from the guys on the team because I haven't hit any this year," Juday said. "Success in hitting the baseball comes from hitting line drives, not from hitting long fly balls. I've done that this year."
Juday should continue to improve his overall game as he becomes more comfortable playing one position for an entire season.
"His best baseball is ahead of him because he has learned how to handle successes and failures of playing every day," Randall said. "Andy is a popular and respected player on this team because of how hard he works to improve."
The baseball team plays a three game series against Texas Tech (27-12) this weekend. The Red Raiders will come to Hoglund-Maupin Stadium for games at 7 p.m. today, 2 p.m. tomorrow and 1 p.m. Sunday.
SE Missouri State on probation
The Associated Press
The NCAA placed the Southeast Missouri State men's basketball program on three years' probation yesterday, citing several violations during former coach Ron Shu-mate's career.
The NCAA's committee on infractions cited several violations, many involving payments to players. Shumate, who coached the Indians for 17 years, was fired in May and replaced by Gary Garner. Three assistant coaches who worked for Shumate were not rehired.
Ken Dobbins, executive vice president at Southeast Missouri, said the university did not plan to appeal.
The NCA report did not name players or coaches involved, but the incidents all happened between the summers of 1994 and 1996, during Shumate's tenure.
them and cooperated fully with investigations by the Ohio Valley Conference and the NCAA.
"Obviously we'd rather not be on probation, but if you consider all that could have happened, we definitely think the NCAA was very fair." Dobbins said.
David Swank, chairman of the infractions committee, said university officials reported the alleged incidents as soon as they learned of
Some of the specific violations, according to the NCAA report:
- One player received a $1,100 loan from a coach to help pay school expenses.
Players received cash payments to cover the costs of rent for an apartment and furniture.
Shumate gave a player $200 to pay delinquent phone bills.
An assistant coach loaned a player $200 to pay two speeding tickets.
During the 1995-96 season, the university provided financial aid to an ineligible player.
The coaches arranged transportation for a player to Cape Girardeau, Mo., from St. Louis.
Shumate now lives in Kentucky
He did not immediately return phone calls from The Associated Press.
Besides the three-year probation, the committee reduced the number of financial aid awards by one for the 1998-99 season; imposed a requirement for programs in compliance education; required annual reports to the committee during the probation period; and ordered attendance at an NCAA compliance seminar and a one-day on-campus compliance seminar.
The committee placed show-cause requirements on Shumate and two assistants, claiming that in addition to the violations they provided false and misleading information to the NCAA enforcement staff and the university.
Under show-cause procedures, Shumate and the assistant would have to appear before the committee before they could be hired by another college or university in an athletic position during the next three years.

Track teams run on pride
By Angela Johnson
Kansan sportswriter
In a track and field intrastate rivalry, Kansas, Kansas State and Wichita State will challenge each other tomorrow at the Wichita State Triangular at Cessna Stadium.
Kansas head coach Gary Schwartz said the team would carry a certain amount of pride to the meet.
"With all three state Division I schools competing against each other, there will be natural competitive ties," Schwartz said. "If you can't get excited about instate competition, you're dead from the neck up."
Like the Arizona State Invitational on March 21, scores for the men's and women's team will be tallied separately. At Arizona State, the Kansas men captured the team title and the women came in a close second.
"The key to winning this meet will be uniself fish performances on part of the better athletes." Schwartz said. "Candy (Mason)
100
and Scott (Russell) will be doing a lot of things."
The Jayhawks have not competed in a triangular since the Kansas State Triangular on Jan. 31, during the indoor season. In that
Scheid: Senior long jumper to lead team vs. Kansas foes
meet the combined men's and women's team until the last four events,but they finished third.
Schwartz compared track competition to a basketball game.
"In basketball, they talk about matchups," he said. "Even if we win ugly, it's still a win. We're hoping to match up strong, especially in the field events."
The Jayhawks have more strength in the men's long jump in the form of Marcus Scheid. The Overland Park senior had used up
TRACK AND FIELD
his eligibility to compete during the indoor season, but he is still eligible for the outdoor season.
Scheid won the men's long jump title at the Texas Lakes last weekend, one of the Jayhawks biggest competitions of the outdoor season. Scheid leaped 24 feet, 53/4 inches to take the gold.
Field events begin at 2 p.m. and the running events begin at 2:30. The meet is scheduled to last about four hours.
"We look to Marcus for senior leadership," Schwartz said. "Winnning at the Texas Relays is a big thing."
"These kind of meets are the essence of what track is all about," Schwartz said. "It's about head-to-head competition. You're in shape, you're competitive, and you're ready to go."
Fitness stressed in new courses
By Erin Thompson
Kansan sportswriter
Twirling in circles until you get sick and fall down is not in the curriculum of the new spinning class at Robinson Center.
Spinning, a cycling class, is one of four new classes being offered next semester by the department of Health, Sport and Exercise Sciences.
The other new classes being offered are in-line skating, marathon and 10K training and basic firearms.
James Lapoint, associate professor for the department, said the department was offering the new classes because the enrollment of traditional classes like racquetball, tennis and swimming had been low.
"We wanted to upgrade the 100 level classes and give students more options." he said.
In-line skating will be taught at
Foster said he would encourage runners of all skill levels to participate in the class but only those who were already able to run for about 40 minutes should expect to complete a marathon by the end of the semester.
Spinning is a cycling class that is taught in an aerobics class style. The class has stationary bikes in either a circle or a straight line, and a leader sets the pace.
Sport 2 Sport, 5200 Clinton Parkway. This will give students the chance to skate as well as be instructed. Lapoint said students also would be able to skate outside when the weather was warm.
Brian Foster, Atlantic City, N.J., graduate student, will teach the marathon and 10K training class. He ran cross country and track at Kutztown University, a Division II school in Pennsylvania.
"A lot of people associate intensity and skill with the love of a sport," he said. "That's not true. The goal is to run a marathon and it doesn't matter what time you finish in."
Basic firearms will be taught by George Lottes, certified National Rifle Association instructor.
Lapoint said the new classes would focus on lifelong skills.
"We're trying to offer those courses that students can benefit from and can continue to participate in when they leave the University," he said.
He said this should not discourage anyone from taking the class,
though.
Other changes also have been made to other classes in the department for the fall. Golf will now be offered for a full credit, and weight training classes will be offered earlier in the morning and later at night.
These classes would close the Robinson weight room to students not in the class.
Horses train, trainers strain in final races before Derby
On the biggest day of the year for Kentucky Derby contenders and pretenders, Favorite Trick will try to win the Arkansas Derby and become the third unbeaten starter at Churchill Downs.
Trainer Neil Howard will try to win two Derby stepping stones tomorrow — the Blue Grass at Keeneland with Lil's Lad and the Wood Memorial at Anudect with Parade Ground.
Trainer Bob Baffert already has Indian Charlie and Real Quiet, 1-2 in the Santa Anita Derby, set for the May 2 Kentucky Derby. But he could add another starter should Prosperous Bid win the Wood Memorial. Baffert won the 1997 Derby with Silver Charm.
Trainer Shug McGaughe apparently won't have a Kentucky Derby starter even if favored Coronado's Quest wins the Wood Memorial.
The Associated Press
"The Derby is out," said McGaugey, who has struggled with the talented but temperamental Coronado's Quest all year. The colt acts up badly when it's time to saddle him.
Favorite Trick, the 1997 horse of the year and unbeaten in nine starts, is the 4-5 favorite to defeat seven other 3-year-olds in the Arkansas Derby at Oaklawn Park and to join Indian Charlie and Event of the Year, each undefeated in four starts, in the Kentucky Derby.
It will be only Trick's second start as a 3-year-old and his second for trainer Bill Mott, who replaced Patrick Byrne in January when Byrne accepted a deal to train for Frank Stronach of Canada.
Lil's Lad, first in all four starts this year, appears set for the Kentucky Derby. Parade Ground also could earn a Derby start, and Howard has a possible third Derby horse in Comic Strip, winner of the Louisiana Derby, but out of the money in the Flamingo.
Prosperous Bid will be making his first start for Baffert, who last Sunday got the colt from John Mabee.

Making par means mastering tourney's greens
Masters champs rate fourth hole most difficult
The Associated Press
AUGUSTA, Ga. — The two par 3s on Augusta National's front side rarely make a TV appearance and they live in the shadows of their much more famous cousins, the 12th and 16th holes on the back nine.
But tournament records show these high, dry front-side holes are the most difficult par 35 on the course, and among the most difficult in golf.
Two-time Masters champion Tom Watson considers the four-hole stretch beginning with the par-4 third hole and including the par-3 fourth and sixth holes the key to winning at Augusta.
"That's the unsung turn." Watson said. "Those are difficult holes."
The fourth, "Flowering Crab," is the first par 3 at Augusta, a 205 yarder from an elevated tee to a shallow but steeply sloped green. A yawning bunker in front guards the right half of the green — the bunker that grabbed Greg Norman's tee shot during his disastrous final round in the 1996 Masters. Another trap protects the left side.
The hole has been aced only once
The Masters
in Masters competition, by Jeff Sluman in 1992. Last year, it rated the toughest hole on the course, playing to a stroke average of 3.348. It was also the only hole at Augusta National on the PGA Tour's list of the 50 most difficult tournament holes last year, ranking 33rd. Throughout the history of the Masters, it ranks second in difficulty to Augusta's long par-4 10th.
In yesterday's opening round of
the Masters, players arrived at the 4th tee to find whipping winds up to 30 mph. It played with the golfers' approach shots as they tried to get the ball up to a back-left pin position. Most came up short and had their hands full two-putting up the hill.
Doug Ford, a 75-year-old former champion, hit 3-wool off the tee and came up short of the green. Billy Ray Brown hit his tee shot so far left he wound up on the cart path of the fifth hole. It took him two chips to get to the green en route to a double bogey.
"There's a very shallow landing area, and you have a lot of carry," Watson said. "Judging the wind on No. 4 is one of the most difficult
judgments on the golf course."
Things were little easier for those who hit the green. Ex-Masters champ Larry Mize's approach putt looked good going up the hill but kept curling away from the hole until he had a 20-footer left for par, which he made. Michael Bradley barely tapped his approach putt from above the hole and watched it trickle 20 feet. He missed coming back for a bogey.
The sixth hole, "Juniper," was the third-toughest hole on the golf course last year, playing to a 3.265 average. It has been aced three times, most recently in 1972.
One of the great features of Augusta is that no two par-3s play in the same direction, so players must
deal with tee shots involving four different wind conditions. The sixth was playing with the wind yesterday.
Golfers stand atop a particularly elevated tee that commands a spectacular flower-filled view down a hill to a steeply sloping green guarded by one bunker. Augusta's par-3 16th is visible in the background. So steep is the slope down from the tee that spectators are allowed to see in that area and tee shots sail above their heads.
It was here in the opening round of the 1991 Masters that Jose Maria Olazabel, in the first round, watched two chip shots roll back to his feet. Olazabel finished second by a stroke to Ian Wooam.
Allen plans to retire
The Associated Press
KANSAX CITY, Mo. — A weeping Marcus Allen knew it was time to retire when he realized he could no longer make great plays — and was in danger of becoming crippled if he tried.
Stopping several times to wipe away tears, one of the most honored running backs in NFL history announced yesterday he was ending his 16-year career and joining CBS as a football analyst.
"I played with love and courage and tenacity. That's all I wanted to do," said the 38-year-old Allen, a former league and Super Bowl MVP who appeared in more games (222), rushed for more touchdowns (123) and caught more passes (587) than any other running back in NFL annals. His total of 12,243 rushing yards is No. 6 all-time.
Allen, the first running back in NFL history to rush for more than 10,000 yards and catch passes for more than 5,000, told Kansas City Chiefs coach Marty Schotten helmer just last week he woul

said. "But the one constant I've had since I came into this league was I could visualize and see plays unfolding, and be a part of that. And frankly, as hard as I tried to create that, the vision wasn't as strong as it needed to be."
Blessed with great cutting ability and uncanny peripheral vision. Allen had a unique wide-screen view of the field as every play unfolded.
He rarely took a direct hit, allowing him to survive for 16 years at a position where few men last longer than eight. But the fear of serious injury was one more reason he quit.
about."
"I clearly thought about that," he said. "One thing I always envisioned was to walk away. It evokes images of Dick Butkus and Joe Namath, who can barely walk. Yes, they're great players. But can they really enjoy their lives like they'd like to? That's something I thought

blocker and receiver as well as a powerful locker room presence with uncommon leadership skills.
Allen should be able to step easily into broadcasting. He has had a popular weekly show with the CBS affiliate in Kansas City.
He said the records will fall, but it's the memories that will live on.
"The moments in the training room, the moments at halftime, the moments on the sideline during games. Those are the moments I will take with me forever," he said. "I'm sure my records will be surpassed. It's the people who matter."
Malone says elbows happen
The Associated Press
SALT LAKE CITY — One fierce elbow and one concussion later, Karl Malone and David Robinson are still friends.
"My first words to him were,
"I'm sorry," Malone said. "He said,
Karl, those things happen."
The star forward of the Utah Jazz visited Robinson at LDS Hospital on Wednesday night. The San Antonio center was hit by an inadvertent elbow from Malone less than three minutes into Utah's 98-88 victory.
Robinson was unconscious for about two minutes and was left with a concussion. A CAT scan found no neurological damage. He was held at the hospital overnight and released.
"I wasn't trying to hit him, of course." Malone said. "David's a great friend of mine. That's just a play that we run, where I turn to the basket like that."
Robinson returned to San Antonio yesterday morning. The Spurs said they would evaluate him before deciding whether he can play today against Seattle.
Rod Thorn, the NBA executive in charge of league discipline.
JETZ
was in Phoenix yesterday for an NBA pred r a f t camp. It
wasn't immediately known whether the league would review the matter.
This was the second straight game in which Malone accidentally injured an opponent. During Utah's 101-99 win at Golden State on Tuesday, Malone kneed Warriors forward Donyell Marshall, who left the game with a fractured rib.
“It's just circumstance,” Malone said of the injuries. “I haven't made a business of doing that in my career. If I've got to start doing things like that, I don't want to play.”
Robinson was guarding Malone in the lane when the Utah star took a pass from John Stockton and turned to the basket. Malone's elbow caught Robinson on the right side of the head. Robinson was called for a foul.
Malone wasn't pleased by postgame comments from Spurs guard Avery Johnson, who said
the elbow was intentional.
Johnson, sitting out with an injury, called for Malone's suspension.
"You saw the replay. Two plus two equals four. ... It's a no-brainer," he said.
"The guy that was causing the most stink about it was the guy over there in street clothes," Malone said. "It's not a big deal between us, but other people are trying to make it a huge deal."
Tim Duncan, who led the Spurs with 34 points, said the hard elbow could lead to retaliation.
"If it gets to the playoffs and we're up against them, it's going to be a whole different game," he said.
"I'm sure some people hold grudges, but I tend not to," Malone said. "If you're a true professional, you can't play well with a chip on your shoulder."
After viewing a replay at halftime, referee Steve Javie said he didn't think the elbow was intentional.
Malone scored 56 points against the Warriors on Tuesday and 32 against the Spurs. On Wednesday, he won the Henry P. Iba Citizen Athlete Award for his devotion to children's charities.

Lending an ear may stop a suicide
Listening, talking can be a help to person in pain
By Lisa Stevens John
jlohn@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
When it comes to suicide prevention, ignorance is not bliss, a campus counselor said.
"Nobody likes to talk about sui-
cide, but to be ignorant about it
doesn't make it less likely to kip-
pen," said James Kreider, counselor at KU Counseling and Psychological Services.
Though not all suicides can be prevented, there are times when the right word at the right time can help. Kreider said.
During initial patient assessment, CAPS counselors ask if the student has tried suicide or if he or she feels suicidal at that time. Kreider said most patients answer honestly.
"Sometimes they are relieved to be able to get it out in the open and talk about it," he said.
The vast majority of students say they are not suicidal, although depression or anxiety may have led them to consider it at another time. Kreider said. Part of the counselor's job is to help the person see the light at the end of the tunnel.
"Usually a person who is depressed has just not looked far enough into the future to see that there are other options," Kreider said. "Suicide is a permanent solution for what is typically a temporary problem."
Marcia Epstein works with Headquarters Counseling Center.
She said the center receives 500 to 700 calls and visits from people who are considering suicide or from people who want to help a friend who is suicidal.
The first step is to ascertain if the person already has harmed himself.
"If not, then we try to get the person talking openly about how they are feeling." Epstein said. "Since they have reached out to a counseling center by calling us, we know they're not 100 percent sure they want to be dead."
up to 85 percent of people who consider suicide give out signals before making an attempt.
The Rev. Thad Holcomb of Ecumenical Christian Ministries said
Holcomb, whose father committed suicide while battling lung cancer, said he recalled a statement his father had made that indicated he might have been considering suicide.
"But at the time I wasn't listening to him in terms of suicide," Holcomb said.
One of the biggest myths about suicide is people who talk about suicide don't do it, Holcomb said.
"That's untrue," Holcomb said. "Most people will talk about it. It might be just a passing comment. They may say, 'Sometimes I feel so down I just want to end it.'"
"People can sometimes prevent a suicide by being attentive, by listening, by being non-judgmental," Holcomb said.
Another myth is there is nothing you can do to prevent a suicide.
If someone thinks a person is suicidal, he or she should contact a person who is knowledgeable about suicidal tendencies, Holcombsaid.
Another possibility is to make a contract with the person.

Most people have some suicidal thoughts at some time in their lives, Holcomb said.
"People who have suicidal thoughts are not crazy, they are just normal people who are in pain."

Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau reprise their roles in The Odd Couple. Contributed photo
Hmm ... Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau doing a sequel to 1968's The Odd Couple
By Jeremy M. Doherty
jdoherty@kansan.com
Kansan movie critic
In this decade alone, these guys have teamed up for two Grumpy Old Men flicks and last year's boat comedy (no, not Titanic) Out to Sea. Toss in their contributions to Oliver Stone's JFK, and we're not exactly hurting for more foolishness with Felix and Oscar.
Haven't we seen this already?
That being said, Neil Simon's The Odd Couple II gets some fairly decent mileage out of the Lemmon-Matthau routine. At times, Simon, who wrote the original Odd Couple, demonstrates he can still get off some of the best zingers of any writer around.
So what's the problem? By and large, the actors look like they're just going through the motions.
The setup is that Felix's daughter
For reasons never adequately explained, the two former roomies meet and book a rented car together to the kids' wedding in San Malina. And then the fun
Review
Felix has, by now, braved three divorces and two broken engagements. He's even more of a hypochondriac, given to plugging his nose on airplanes so he won't have to smell the other passengers. As Good it Gets, anyone?
is getting hitched to Oscar's son. Clean-freak Felix (Lemmon) and defiant bachelor Oscar (Matthau) now have to enure each other while car pooling to the wedding.
Oscar has left his New York apartment and moved down to Florida, where he's still covering sports. His pickup lines are as lecherous as ever, and his legendary poker game consists of a crew of elderly widows instead of men.
A plethora of off-color language peppers the script, and Matthau flips the birdie on one occasion. Lemmon gets to sputter the F-word almost as many times here as he did in *Glenarry Glen Ross*.
After 30 years, common sense would dictate that Lemmon, Matthau and Simon would reunite only if the material were worth it. With an ending that leaves wide open the possibility for an Odd Couple 3 (or is that Grumpy Old Men 3), I'd say a sequel was likely the farthest thing from their minds.

its premise — an angel walks amongst humans and years to live with them — sounds utterly corny and fairly derivative after the John Travolta vehicle Michael took a similar route a few years back.
Seth learns from a "fallen" angel (Dennis Franz) he could leave his celestial duty and become human if he chooses.
One of the most pleasing elements here is that director Brad Silberling has managed to modify Wenders' story without sullying our memories of the original. Silberling puts romance at the center, whereas Wings of Desire didn't introduce it until nearly the end.
Ryan is on familiar turf with the romance, but she forgoes the space-cadet demeanor which has typified many of her roles.
Cage takes an detour from his recent string of action flicks, creating a sympathetic, pure character without relying on his cliched acting techniques (bug-eyed facial expressions and hyper-active delivery).
If director Silberling seems to lose his touch in the last reel, give him a break. He's still miles ahead of his last effort - 1995's Casper.

Kansas City offers nightlife options

Despite these problems, Merrill said sometimes Kansas City was a nice change from the Lawrence entertainment scene.

Sometimes the night life in Lawrence just isn't enough to satisfy adventurous college students.
Larry Nichols, general manager for Stanford's Comedy House, 504 Westport Road, said students frequent his business, especially on weekends and spring break.
"You always see the same people all the time in Lawrence," she said. "Kansas City has a different crowd. It's new."
"The later you stay, the longer you drink, and the harder it is to get home," he said.
"A 45-minute eastbound drive is all a KU student needs to have a little fun." he said.
Frank Heili, a bartender for the Hurricane, 4048 Broadway, Kansas City, Mo. has a piece of advice.
One of the things that attracts students to the comedy house is the drink specials, Nichols said. Every
Many KU students are taking Heili's advice and making the trip to Kansas City on the weekends.

Ashley Lucas, Overland Park junior, said her biggest attraction to the Kansas City night life was the jazz scene. Jardine's 4536 Main St., presents many area jazz artists, she said.
"Simplexity is one of the only bands I've heard in Lawrence that sounds like the ones I've seen in Kansas City." Lucas said.

New committee will try to raise voter awareness
Bv Marcelo Vilela

Kansan staff writer
Not enough students participate in Student Senate elections on campus, and a committee was created to rectify the situation.
The Committee for Voter Awareness held its first meeting Friday in the Kansas University. Eighteen students attended the meeting and helped make an educational banner and fliers.
The banner reads "Voice your opinion:
Vote!" and shows the dates and locations
where students can vote. It will be hung at
Wescoe Hall today.
The objective of the committee is to increase voter participation at the University of Kansas, and get more people involved in the decision making process, said Mark Auerbach, Warren, N.J., senior and president of the committee.
During the meeting, Auerbach said that the committee's goal was to educate students about the election, specifically about locations where students can vote.
The committee was founded in response to the low voter participation at the University, in which less than 15 percent of the students vote in elections.
"We didn't realize how low the percentage of voters was," said Laleh M-Navai, the committee's treasurer. "Everybody can influence what Senate does, but people don't voice what they want. We plan on improving elections."
Even though the organization is independent of all election candidates and coalitions, Delta Force and Campus Cause donated $35 to the committee. Representatives of both coalitions were at the meeting.
"Anything that can get more students involved in the political process benefits the entire student body," said Kevin Yoder, Campus Cause candidate for student body president. "It's long past due for an effort like this to be made. I hope the committee will stay active in the future."
Matt Dunbar, Delta Force candidate for student body vice president, said that it was good to have a non-partisan group to take a load off the elections commission.
"I hope in the future the group grows and can achieve their goals of providing a non-biased description of the coalitions and candidates," Dunbar said.
Auerbach said that the committees' future goals included creating a Web page to equally represent candidates and their platforms, and receiving funds from Senate.
2 days away
Students interested in joining the committee must contact Mark Auerbach at 331-2586. Applications will be available throughout the year.

Students not interested enough to participate in campus government
By Carl Kaminski
ckaminski@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Student Senate represents every student at the University of Kansas, but few seem to care.
Only 13 percent of students voted in Student Senate elections last year. Few disagree that this is a problem.
Most candidates, regardless of coalition ties, think that most students do not care about or understand what goes on in Student Senate. Therefore they do not vote.
Aaron Profitt, independent candidate for a Nunemaker seat, said that he has seen a complete lack of understanding among the student body.
He said that students should care about an organization that spends their money and has a budget of almost $1 million.
Proffitt said that he wants the Student Senate Web site to keep students aware. He said that he would like to see Senate meetings held in different locations on campus and that Senate should hold bimonthly forums to keep students up to date on Senate issues.
Yoder said he has been in Senate for three years and this past semester was the most unproductive he had ever seen.
Instead of looking at issues, he said senators have been looking at the people presenting them.
Kevin Yoder, Campus Cause candidate for student body president, said he thought some of the apathy stemmed from the unprofessional conduct of senators.
Once they are elected, candidates should drop coalition ties, he said.
"That image of a divided senate doesn't do any good," he said.
Proffit agreed that extreme partisan-ship was a problem in senate, which is why he is running as an independent.
Emily Heath, Delta Force candidate for student body president, said that it was the student body president and
vice president's responsibility to break down coalition barriers.
"It comes down to leadership," she said.
Heath said too many students voted down coalition lines rather than looking at individual people and issues.
Heath also said she thinks student apathy toward senate is a problem.
She said that Senate has been too much of a good ol' boys' network and that a lot of people have been too intimidated to get involved in the past.
Yoder said senators should reach out to the student body more to educate them.
He said he would like to see senators hold office hours in their respective schools in order to make them more available to the students they represent. Like Proffit, Yoder said that he would like to see Senate meet in more places than just the Union to make it more visible around campus.
"Student Senate has to talk about issues important to students," he said. "We've got to go to them."
Yoder said senators should think about whether a resolution, such as the one passed this year against armed conflict with Iraq or the one to lower the drinking age to 18, affects students' daily lives.
Heath wants to attract interest by focusing on more than just how Senate spends money.
"That just doesn't get people excited," she said. "I want people to get involved because they care about the issues."
She said resolutions like the one against armed conflict with Iraq were important.
"Too many people think Senate cannot influence things outside senate," she said.

The drum was played for five minutes by the 11 members of Thunder Shield, one of six area singing groups that performed Saturday night at the Anschutz Sports Pavilion, to announce the beginning of the festivities.
The Native American Student Association's 1998 Spring Powwow, Dancing On The Hill, started with a bang on a big drum.
The six groups each used two instruments: their drums and their voices.
Vendors lined the walls of the pavilion, selling T-shirts, jewelry, paintings and food to the crowd of more than 600 people.
"It's the same style that has been played for years," said Tim Tall Chief, master of ceremonies. "Very little has been changed over time."
Children ran on the track and played under the grandstand while about 200 people watched the dancers.
Tall Chief said that the music was important but that powwows centered around dancing.
The Spring Powwow began with the Intertribal Dance, a celebration where participants could enter and exit the dance area at any time.
"Some of the dances are simply for celebration; others are individual competitions." he said.
Elyse Towey, Napa, Calif., senior and NASA president, said that although she had been busy during most of the powwow, she had made time to participate in one of the dances.
"I've been running all over this place, but I had to get one dance in." she said.
Tall Chief said that some of the dances had other functions that could not be used at the powwow.
"The Women's Jingle, for instance, is a healing dance," he said. "It is still used today by some nations."
One of the most popular events was a dance by 10 young children. They did the Tiny Tots dance, performed to a rendition of "Three Little Indians" played by the Alliance West Singers.
Towey said that this year's festival had more dancers than previous
NASA powwows.
"It was a real success," she said. "We really appreciated that we had a lot of support from the community, from the Office of Minority Affairs, the Gammas (Sigma Lambda Gamma sorority) and from BSU and Delta Force."
David Rolling Thunder Clark came to the powwow to watch his son, T.C., dance. Clark said that he and T.C. thought powwows were as important now as they ever were.
"He started practicing dances for this about three years ago," Clark said. "It's something he's taking a lot of pride in."
Tall Chief agreed that powwows were vital for maintaining Native Americans' pride in their heritage.
"A lot of people say that you are an American citizen first and a member of your nation second, and that is not the case," Tall Chief said. "You are a member of your nation first."

Clinton vows new laws to crack down on tobacco
WASHINGTON — Brushing off an industry boycott and threats of lawsuits, Clinton administration officials and members of
In Washington
Congress say they are confident they'll pass tough anti-tobacco legislation by the end of this year.
Donna Shalala declared yesterday. "There's no question about it because it's about public health."
Major tobacco companies announced last week they would not go along with tobacco legislation being debated in Congress, saying the original goal of reducing teen smoking had been subverted into a money grab that would drive the industry into bankruptcy
Yesterday, industry leaders said that they would use their lobbying power to stop the legislation. They also said they would go to court to challenge provisions that limit advertising of tobacco products and require companies to pay billions in penalties if teen-smoking reduction goals aren't met.
"The first thing we would do, if the present legislation passes, is go to court and have it declared unconstitutional," tobacco industry attorney J. Philip Carlton said on "Fox News Sunday."
Carlton and other industry spokesmen raised the specter of organized crime and drug dealers running black market sales to teen-agents if Congress forces cigarette prices up and the possibility that the industry would move jobs overseas. "You're talking about approximately 2 million American jobs," Carlton said.

Sudanese conscripts killed during escape from military
CAIRO, Egypt — A Sudanese opposition group said Sunday that soldiers shot and beat to death 74 student conscripts trying to flee a military camp outside the capital, Khartoum.
At least 55 others drowned when their boat capsized on the Blue Nile while they were trying to escape, the National Democratic Alliance said in a statement issued from its headquarters in neighboring Eritrea.
If true, the report would dramatically raise the death toll in the April 2 incident. The government has acknowledged that 31 people
There was no immediate government comment about Sunday's report.
The recruits were training at the Alafaion military camp, 15 miles southeast of Khartoum. The government was believed to have picked up many of the men from streets and markets for training to fight an insurgency in southern Sudan.
Military service is mandatory for Sudanese men.
The alliance said 261 recruits tried to escape the camp. As they fled, soldiers shot and beat to death 74 of them, the report said.
Citing government forensic reports, the alliance said autopsies showed the men suffered "beatings with sticks, bullet wounds in the area between the stomach and chest, the spinal cord and the neck." It said its government sources conveved the reports.
Fifty-five others drowned when their boat capsized, although the circumstances of the accident are still unclear. The rest were believed to have escaped, the alliance said.
The bodies of 12 students were handed over to their families, the alliance said, and 117 others were transported by tractor under armed escort and buried in a mass grave April 6.

Brush collection site held near Hobbs Park
Lawrence's Parks and Recreation Department will begin collecting twigs and other small brush items at a drop site this Saturday.
University of Kansas students and Lawrence residents can haul their brush to the Forestry Department's lot located one block east of Hobbs Park at 1110 Haskell Ave.
Brush can be dropped off on Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. until Saturday, Nov. 14. There is a service charge of $2 for each load of yard waste deposited.
Jim Beebe, forestry department supervisor, said the department would grind the yard waste into mulch for use on city-owned flower and tree beds.
"Eventually, we're hoping that the mulch and the chips could be sold back to the public in the future, but we haven't set a price yet," Beebe said.
—Jeremy Doherty
A city employee will be on hand to operate the department's two wood chippers, Beebe said. Yard material larger than 12 inches in diameter, and trash will not be accented.

Silver Dollar City pass is $25,
and Six Flags go for $22.25
each.

Discrimination by certain Delta Force senators wrong
As the president of KU Veterans Association, I would like to describe what it really is like to deal with Student Senate. My organization was formed to support military veterans and ROTC students at the University of Kansas. It was formed with the best of intentions, and we have done nothing to offend any other group of students. So I didn't expect our group to be attacked by members of the self-proclaimed advocate of diversity and tolerance called Delta Force. Delta Force claims that it is dedicated to improving the quality of life for all KU students. However, recent events have proven to me that for some individuals in the organization, this claim is a sham.
When I started my organization, the only thing I knew about Delta Force was that they claimed to be a grassroots organization and often accused other senators of being elitist and unresponsive to the concerns of students. Imagine my surprise when members of Delta Force refused to get in touch with me to discuss my organization, even after I contacted their presidential candidate several times. Imagine my greater surprise when several Delta Force senators and their presidential candidate turned away from me when I walked past them in Strong Hall. Imagine my disgust when a Delta Force senator turned his back on me two times in one day when I was trying to talk to him outside the Senate office. I guess their "support" for diversity and tolerance doesn't apply to veterans and future military officers. The way that these Delta Force senators treated me made me think that it was pointless to request funding for my group from Senate until I saw that all of the Campus Cause senators supported my organization and fought for us in Senate.
The conduct of certain Delta Force senators became much worse when I appeared before Senate and two Senate committees, where I had to listen to hours of insults, objections and unjustified attacks on my organization from Delta Force senators. This conduct of certain Delta Force senators does not
measure up to the benevolent public image that the organization tries to present to the students.
Is it really so bad to try and help students who have served their country? I don't think so.
First, Delta Force attacks Campus Cause senators, and now they attack veterans and ROTC students. Who's next? The character assassination that certain members of Delta Force use to attract support is creating voter apathy at the University because it shows a lack of respect for the choices made by the students during the last election. My hope for this election is that every military veteran, reservist, retiree and every other student who cares about fairness and professional conduct in the Student Senate will think about what I have said before they vote this week.

Affirmative action column unresearched, incorrect
This is in response to the April 9, 1998 column on affirmative action. I am finally fed up with all of the misrepresented affirmative article articles being written to The University Daily Kansas. In each column, the writers say that affirmative action is used mostly for race. They say that the supposedly greatest benefactors are African-Americans. If people actually would do their research and study up on affirmative action, they would realize that the largest benefactors of affirmative action are Caucasian women.
However, if people want to continue to make this an African American/Caucasian issue and not a minority issue, in which women are included according to the U.S. government, then take a close look at the facts. Affirmative action was started primarily because of the Brown vs. Topeka Board of Education case. Yes, the ruling was to desegregate schools, but the ruling never had a time frame during which the schools had to allow African Americans in. The ruling was handed down in 1954, but the last school was desegregated in 1979 — 25
years after the ruling. Wow, that action really was affirmative, huh?
Now try to follow me on these facts. It has been only about 30 years since affirmative action was first implemented, but slavery was around for more than 400 years. With discrimination still around in the 1950s and '60s, my parents already were in those "poor black" schools and could not afford to go to, or could not get accepted into, those "rich white" schools. Therefore, they could not receive the best education to attend these "white" institutions and receive a better education to obtain the prestigious "white" jobs of corporate America.
Truthfully, affirmative action just now is starting to be useful. More minority children born in the '60s, '70s, and later now are able to reap the benefits of affirmative action. They now are able to attend prestigious "white" colleges, obtain prestigious "white" jobs, live in prestigious "white" neighborhoods, and send their children to prestigious "white" schools. There they can get the proper college prepatory skills to attend and get accepted to prestigious institutions on the basis of their education, not on the color of their skin. I am not attacking inner-city schools. I am responding to the fact that universities look in suburbia schools for potential students before they go to inner-city schools. That is not right, but that is America.
In 15 to 30 years, we hopefully no longer will need affirmative action (granted that racism is on the decline or even gone). I do agree that affirmative action may need to be reformed a little, but it still is an asset in today's society. Yes, Martin Luther King, Jr. did say that we should be judged on the content of our character and not the color of our skin. However, he did not expect racism still to be around 30 years after his famous "I Have a Dream" speech. If you don't believe me, ask those who are still being fired, turned away, jailed and even beaten because of the color of their skin. In the end, all that needs to be said is that my ancestors and women waited more than 400 years for their freedom and equality. America definitely can wait another 15 before it removes affirmative action.

memos.
A. J. CAMERON
Donato
Fhunsu
opinion@kansan.com
One Saturday, I went to the department and headed directly to my mailbox. Sure enough, there was an important memo. Since the memo was long, it took me some time to read and digest it. Dinneen, who had heard me arrive and then fade into silence, came out of his office to see what had become of me.
When he saw that I was
reading the memo, he said, "How strange! You read the memos?" I found the question out of place and asked him in turn, "Aren't the memos written to be read?"
He said, "Yes, that is the ideal. However, during the many years I have been department chair and GTA trainer, my main complaint has been that people don't read the memos. It is strange. It seems that in our department and in society in general, there is not a dearth of good leaders but of good followers. Followership is what we need to understand and practice."
Followership I never had thought about that. In January, I participated in a leadership training retreat. And because it was a leadership thing, we dissected leadership from the leadership angle, not the followership perspective. However, since that conversation with Dinnen, I have thought a lot about followership. It has occurred to me that as far as life experience, inner strength, insight and wisdom are concerned, human beings seem to stand on a symbolic ladder, according to the level of these qualities they possess and express. Those who express only some of these are at the lower part of the ladder, those who express more are in the middle, and those who express the most are at the upper part.
Each one of us stands on a certain rung of this ladder of life. Behind us stand millions of people. To them we have to extend a helping hand, a comforting heart, and an enlightening mind, so that their journey on the path of life is not so lonely, dark, or hopeless. Before us stand many people. Among these people are not only those who are living in physical incarnation among us, but also those who have lived on earth in the
past but are now out of incarnation. These, depending on the culture, are called ancestors, elders, saints, gurus, marabous or masters. Whatever their names, their positions are the same. They have sojourned on the path of life before us, known joy and pain, overcome the limitations and developed the potential of human existence. And, whether in or out of incarnation, they are always with us, helping us lift our consciousness a notch higher, realize our humanity and experience our inherent divinity.
To these free spirits we must look for example, aid, and understanding. Since they have mastered what we are trying to master, to them we are followers. If we understand this, we will be effective in our lives and we will provide more effective leadership to those who come behind us and need our help. The apostle Peter might have had the same idea in mind when he said, "For this [suffering] you were called, because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that you should follow in his steps" (1 Peter 2:21).
However, in our society today the idea of following somebody is aversive. We see it as a sign of weakness. We don't want anybody to lecture us about anything, to tell us what to do or how to do it. We don't want to stand behind anybody; we want to be in front of everybody. With this common idea of leadership, we fool ourselves into thinking that it is that simple.
True leadership, however, is painful. Often it takes away your appetite, sleep, and peace. Sometimes the pain can be so intense that we find ourselves crying out as Jesus did: "Father, if it is your will, take this cup [of leadership] away from me; nevertheless not my will, but yours, be done" (Luke 22:42). Because true leaders are committed to the very will of life itself, their individual wills seem to have become one with the will of life.
As a result, the power, love, wisdom and light of life freely flow through them to the rest of humanity and they accomplish what we call miracles. Since they are followers of life, they have gone to the heart of life and from that center they receive their vision and the power to bring that vision to reality. And when all the power of life is working with them, they cannot fail in what we do for the service of humanity.
That is why true leaders consistently change the world for the better, and we wonder how they do it. They do it because they have discovered the secret of followership, a secret freely shared with us—if we are willing to follow in their steps.

Dangerous intersection is noticed only after death
A after reading a column by John Colbert in *The University Daily Kansan* about the accident that caused the death of Lisa Rosel, I felt obligated to write a column
myself. On Sept. 13, 1997, at 14th and Tennessee streets, I almost was killed when a car hit me broadside while I was riding a motorcycle. I suffered a severe head injury, short-term memory problems, torn cartilage in my left knee, a fractured kneepac, and lifelong scars all over my body. I know I was not the first to be involved in an accident at this dangerous intersection, and recently I discovered that I was not the last. It has taken the tunic
Jason Pallai
opinion @ kansan.com
It has taken the tragic death of a beautiful, young woman to open the eyes and ears of our public officials and civic leaders to the obvious congestion at this intersection. Important issues like this are not examined until someone dies and the local media brings it to the public's attention. When John Colbert wrote a column about my accident, I did not hear about or see any coverage of my accident by the local newspapers. The local media certainly were not interested in investigating why I almost was killed. Nor was a front page feature article written about the 65-year-old man who hit me while turning from the right lane. He and I never were given
blood-alcohol tests to determine the cause of the improper left turn across another lane.
After Lisa Rosel died, Chancellor Robert Hemenway was quoted in the Kansan talking about his concern for the investigation. Now we all certainly are sorry about what happened, and I am sure the chancellor is concerned about the accident. But chancellor, why does it take a certain fatality to spark your interest in the dangers of this intersection? Why is it that the only reason you did not have interest in my accident was because I did not die? I only lived because I missed a telephone pole and a fire hydrant by inches while being propelled through the air.
The sad fact remains that Lisa Rosel was killed, and my thoughts and prayers go out to her and her family. Another sad fact is that getting the attention of the media, public officials and civic leaders requires someone to die. The congestion and sometimes utter mayhem at 14th and Tennessee streets is ridiculous, and John Colbert has testified to that more than once. The intersection needs major changes to make it safer for both pedestrians and motorists. The chancellor and the police did not take such interest in this dangerous intersection after my near-fatal accident. If such interest had been taken, perhaps some changes to this intersection could have been made that would have prevented the death of Lisa Rosel.

Feedback Death of student article insensitive
I did not appreciate picking up *The University Daily Kansan* only to find a diagram of where Lisa Rosel was killed. Nor did I find it appropriate that on the Opinion page there was a column that described the event in detail talking about how people where screaming and pleading. This is not journalism. This is sensationalism at its height. Did the *Kansan* stop to think about how the people who knew her would feel? I couldn't even read the paper after seeing the disgusting

I want to thank you, Shyra Darris and the editorial board, for noticing and writing about the unity and activism among minority student organizations at the University of
Kansas in your editorial in Thursday's University Daily Kansan. I also have felt that there is a new spirit of unity among minority student organizations, and it's wonderful to see us working together on issues that face all of us together and also on issues that may affect some of our groups more than others.
Thanks again for the article. I also like the "Pat on the Back" editorial on Tuesday. Rochelle Votaw certainly deserved recognition for her amazing efforts to organize the Affirmative Action rally.

Credit unions affected by ruling
By Gerry Doyle
gdayole@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
A U.S. Supreme Court decision may keep students at the University of Kansas from getting the credit they deserve.
The ruling states that the National Credit Union Administration, which regulates the nation's credit unions, has to restrict credit union membership to members having a common bond.
Curt Sorenson, associate professor of geography and volunteer credit union board member, said credit unions were attractive because their members controlled it, not a corporation. He said the ruling wouldn't affect groups already in the credit union.
While students were let in recently, he said their future was uncertain.
"The decision eliminated our abil
The ruling could hurt credit unions in general and the KU Credit Union specifically, said Mark Humphries, executive vice president of the KU Credit Union. Students were let into the credit union in 1995, and with the ruling, their future has become a gray area, Humphries said.
ity to attract new members," he said.
"It doesn't so much hurt the credit union as it does access to the credit union. The whole student question is a situation of limbo. I think the main issue now is what happens in Congress."
While students will not be kicked out, future groups will not be let in, he said.
The KU Credit Union originally was started for University faculty and staff, he said.
Examples of non-KU groups in the credit union are a garage door group and an auto and truck group, Hummphries said.
not have the choice of credit union membership. It's bad for small employers who have the need for credit union benefits but cannot afford their own. It's about balance and about choice."
"The ruling altered the previous method of operation for the regulator," he said. "Some groups might
A resolution in the U.S. Congress, House Resolution 1151, may revert credit union interpretation to its original status, he said.
While some groups might be left out, no injustice is being done by changing the interpretation of a credit union, said Katy Minnick, St. Joseph, Mo., sophomore. Other unions existed just for certain groups, and anyone can get banking services at a bank if they need them, Minnick said.
The KU Credit Union should be restricted, she said.
CREDIT/NO CREDIT
Who can use the credit union: Students, faculty, staff and some small community groups.
What is a credit union? It's like a bank. It is operated by its members.
Who will be affected: Groups wanting to join who aren't already included.
What can change ruling: House Resolution 1151, now under consideration in Congress
"Where I'm from, the police have a credit union and there's one for city employees," she said. "If it's supposed to be for faculty and students, then restrict it. It's supposed to be a privilege. There are lots of other banks that offer the same thing."
Farmer's Ball bands battle for top spot
Bv Chris Horton

Kansan staff writer
After sorting through 75 tapes, KJHK music staff members and SUA music coordinators selected eight bands for this year's Farmer's Ball.
Entries for the three-night battle of the bands at The Bottleneck are Angrius, Icarus, Solar Moth, The Anniversary, The Norman 360, The Playthings, 2 Player Option and Vosotros.
The first round of KJHK's Farmer's Ball competition will be Monday, April 20 and Tuesday, April 21 with four bands playing each night. The bands were announced Friday afternoon on KJHK's local music show, "Plow the Fields."
Sam Fisk, Galesburg, III., senior and KJHK program director, said the Farmer's Ball was named by Jacki Becker, the original host of "Plow the Fields." The winner will receive the opening slot at Day on the Hill and four hours of recording time at Red House Studios in Eindora. Fisk said.
The different personal tastes of KJHK's music staff provided this year's diverse lineup, he said.
"Out of the last three Farmer's Balls that I've witnessed, this is the most diverse of all." Fisk said.
John Orcutt, SUA live music coordinator, said that the audience would vote each night on two bands. The two bands selected by the audiences from the two nights would proceed to the final round, Friday, April 24.
"I think we've got a good one lined up this year." Orcutt said.
The bands playing Monday, in order, are Solar Moth, Angrius, 2 Player Option and Vosotros, he said. Tuesday night will feature, in order, Icarus, The Playthings, The Norman 360 and The Anniversary.
"We've definitely got a wide variety, including two metal bands — one each night." Orcurt said.
Rob Gillespie, Icarus vocalist and Lawrence resident, performs under the stage name Dick Deluxe and occasionally disrobes and cuts him on stage. Gillespie said his band was ready for the Farmer's Ball.

■ When: First round is Monday, April 20 and Tuesday, April 21. Final round is Friday, April 24.

Icarus' music is an attempt to bring back the glam-metal days of the 1990s. Gillesie said.
Jenny Hart, Lawrence senior and bassist for the Playthings, said she was excited about playing with so many Lawrence bands.

ISSUE STUDENT SENATE
Little agreement on enrollment
Tuition changes online practices suggested in race
By Gerry Doyle gdoyle@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
The enrollment specter is upon the University's student body again, and suggestions for improvement are coming from all sides of the Student Senate race.
The Campus Cause coalition is pushing for online enrollment. Delta Force wants to restructure tuition. And an independent candidate just wants to generally make things better.
Seth Hoffman, Delta Force candidate for a Nunemaker seat, said that the key to enrollment was curbing linear tuition. Since
linear tuition had been instituted, students wanting to take more than the standard 15 hours of classes were being hurt by the policy. Hoffman said.
Delta Force also plans to change the refund policy for adddrop so that students could consider whether to take a class or not, he said.
"What we're going to do is make it so that it will give you a little more time to make that decision," he said. "At KU, it's almost arbitrary, really, class shopping? That's not good enough, really. It's just ridiculous."
Hoffman said that these changes could be accomplished by working with the administration. He said that Campus Cause's online idea was just taking credit for something that already was happening.
Kevin Yoder, Campus Cause candidate for student body president, said that while the online movement already was in
motion, his coalition's goal was to spur it along.

"The administration has been saying they will for years, and years," he said. "Now, it could be two to four more years. Who knows? Our goal is to
Hoffman: Coalition wants to curb linear tuition
really put pressure on them."
Yoder said that his coalition's priority was getting online enrollment. The enrollment process is so convoluted and frustrating that something needed to be done to make it more convenient, Yoder said.
The current system just is too unwieldy to be useful, he said.
"It takes long time, it's inefficient," he said. "Right now, we're
Aaron Profitt, Overland Park freshman and independent candidate.
Yoder: wants to push for online enrollment
said that online enrollment was a good start. Whatever is done to the enrollment process should be done to streamline it for the students. Profitt said.
"I want to see the University add online enrollment," he said. "It's making it easier for the student. Advising is OK, and the holds center is a good resource for students. I'm always in favor of something like that."
Corporate presence on campus causes debate
Candidates discuss pros and cons of University contracts
By Brandon Copple bcopple@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
Student Senate candidates disagree about the implications surrounding the growing corporate presence at the University of Kansas.
In the past year, the University has entered exclusive sponsorship agreements with Coca-Cola and Nike. The University sells Coca-Cola products exclusively on campus
Damon Miller, Campus Cause candidate for an education seat, said the benefits of corporate affiliation outweigh the drawbacks.
"It's a sign of the times that things are becoming more corporatized," he said. "But it provides us with the funds to do some things that we want done."
and at University events. Nike provides all University athletic gear and attire.
Sam Pierron, Delta Force candidate for a Liberal Arts and Sciences seat, disagrees.
PETER R. KINSEY
"The mission of the University is education, and an important part of creating a positive environment for education is the absence of profit-driven distractions on campus," he said.
The University received significant financial incentives from both companies. A bout u
Pierron: profit motive harms education mission
$300,000 from the Coca-Cola contract will go toward student activities, and money from the contract will help bring lecturers to campus and set up new scholarships.
Only one of the coalitions, Delta Force, has included the corporate issue in its platform. Delta Force's Web page (www.ukans.edu/~dforce) states that the University must be careful about its corporate affiliations.
The Delta Force page states that Phillips Petroleum and Nike have close ties to the University and have been cited among the world's most serious oppressors of human and social rights and destroyers of environmental integrity.
Pierron said that partnerships with the corporate world detracted from the University as a place where that behavior can be openly challenged.
"Who's going to speak for those who cannot speak?" Pierron said. "It's not going to be someone in the corporate world. As University students, we're in a unique position to express our opinions because we're accountable to a relative few."
However, the biggest dangers of increased corporate presence are elimination of consumer options and creating the impression that the University is for sale to the highest bidder, Pierron said.
Jennifer Nazworthy, Delta Force candidate for a School of Pharmacy seat, said she did not object to corporate involvement because the University could put the money to good use. However, students
should have a more active voice in corporations' roles on campus, she said.
"Coke only sells plastic bottles on campus, and that raises some recycling problems." she
said. "Aluminum cans are better for recycling. That's something that students care about, and s en a t e should be there to voice that concern."
I am a native of New York, NY. I have been studying computer science at the University of Pennsylvania for three years and have received honors in both mathematics and computer science.
Melisa Veon, Campus Cause candidate for a Nunemaker seat, said the University was fulfilling its commitment to students by looking to the private sector to increase funding.
Veon: corporate donations help KU students
"Especially with the decrease in funds from state and local government, it's important that the University get money from somewhere," she said. "If it allows us to build a more diverse student body, you have to say it's the best thing to do."

Student struggles with obsessive condition
By Lisa Stevens John
jlohn@kansan.com.
Kansan staff writer.
Today, when Marci has thoughts of harming her boyfriend with a knife or a gun, she says to herself: "It's okay, it's just OCD."
Obsessive-compulsive disorders trap an estimated two percent of people in a constant struggle between perceived worries and reality. The good news is, it can be helped.
Some who suffer from OCD may wash their hands repeatedly, obsessively count and touch things, follow rituals before leaving the house, avoid stepping on cracks, or fear catching germs from other people.
This is Marci's worst fear.
One of the most devastating symptoms of OCD may be the fear of harming those closest to you.
Marci is a student at the University of Kansas who volunteered for an interview on the condition that her real name not be used.
Marci is a tall, brown-haired young lady who speaks in staccato. She moves cohesively from one topic to another, sometimes punctuating new thoughts quickly by saying: "Okay. Move on. Nextth."
Marci said she has had symptoms of OCD for as long as she can remember. She recalls that as a child she would not go to sleep at night until her father tested the smoke alarms. She began having bad thoughts about her parents
— calling them bad names in her mind — around the age of 10, she said. When playing tennis as a teen-ager, Marci developed a ritual of walking up to the net and touching it a certain number of times before each set.
During her later teen-age years, Marci feared that she would hurt her parents. The fear enveloped her life.
"During the night, I would get up to go to the bathroom and I would start obsessing about my fear," Marci said. "I would think, oh my God, what if I were to go into the kitchen and get a knife and hurt them."
The person with OCD will obsess about whatever is the most important thing in their life. Marci said.
"Then, I go to college," she said. "I meet the man of my dreams — we've been together for two years now, and he's the most important thing in my life."
"And so there we go — let's have thoughts about him. And the thoughts were: I'm afraid I'm going to take a knife or a gun and hurt him."
It was only when Marci would actually hold a knife in her hand that she felt calm, she said.
"I'm one of the non-violent people I know," she said. "I would never hurt anybody. When I get the knife in my hand, I realize that it's not the thing that is so bad. It's the thought."
The thoughts have recently begun to improve, thanks to research she has done, to counseling which has taught her behavior modification, and through the use of Zoloft, an antidepressant which has been found to alleviate the symptoms of OCD.
Jim Kreider, a counselor at the University of Kansas Counseling and Psychological Services, said OCD is more common than most people think. Kreider currently is counseling four KU students who have OCD.
"It's very challenging because whatever one tries to do, it often feeds back into the same obsessive thought pattern," Kreider said.
One of the first steps in working with someone who has OCD is to help them understand they are not crazy. Kreider said.
Marci agreed and told how she came upon this realization several years ago.
"I went into a bookstore and I went to the psychology section. I had never done this before. I picked up a book and opened the page and it was me — it was me — on that page. I sat down on the floor and cried because I felt so relieved to know I was not crazy."
Marci soon sought psychiatric help, and six months ago, she agreed to add the medication to her behavioral and thought modification techniques.
The medication has helped, she said. Though she still fears that she will harm someone she loves, Marci is able to remind herself that it is just OCD that causes the thoughts.
But she has no false hopes of curing her disorder forever.
"What happens with OCD is you have traces of it throughout your life," Marci said. "But you really get it — like it hits — at 19 years of age. You're becoming an adult, you're faced with all these life stresses and it just comes soaring."
But Marci is determined to deal with OCD. Everyone has obstacles in life, she said.
"This is my challenge and there is a reason for it. Yeah, I have problems, I struggle sometimes, but deal. There is no point in whining."
Preschool kids get social skills from program
Katie Burford
Today, Bobby and Annie broke ground on their new home. Unfortunately, the structure will probably be a forgotten heap of rubble by naptime, but they are not too concerned about that now.
Special to the Kansan
Bobby and Annie are children in Sunnyside preschool, a program operated by the department of human development and family life at the University of Kansas. Watching them interact, it is easy to forget that they are just four years old.
Kara Arensberg, Lawrence graduate teaching assistant, said that infancy to 10 years old was a critical time for children.
"If they don't receive the proper experiences and stimulation during this time, then chances are they will be developmentally impaired later in life." she said.
Bobby is one of two boys in a group of seven children. Most of the children are playing dress-up but Bobby is not interested and casts a disapproving eye at the other boy who has already donned pastel yellow chiffon.
The teacher puts on a dress to show Bobby how much fun it is, but he is unconvinced and wanders off to play with Legos in the corner.
"Two-and-half to five-year-old children often stick close to the teacher or play individually with a toy, but they are also beginning to have more complex social interactions." Arensberg said.
Annie has put on a flattering floral print sundress with a scarf wrapped around her head for accent and a large pair of sunglasses that swallow her face. She notices Bobby in the corner alone, and she discretely breaks away from the group and makes her way toward him.
Bobby looks up from his construction and smiles widely when he sees Annie approach. She asks him what he is building. He goes into great length about the intricacies of his fabrication and Annie listens intently.
She asks Bobby questions and Bobby nods and looks her in the eye while she speaks. After several minutes of this interaction, the two move side by side and begin building the house together.
Wilma Holt, instructor in human development and family life, said that the department gave children free play time so that they could begin experimenting with social interaction in a safe environment.
"Dramatic play is a very important part of development," Holt said.

Seniors lose hair for real world
Local stylists say spring customers look for new looks
By Julie Eberle Special to the Kansan
Long hair signifies youth, local hair stylists say. So as students come to terms with graduation and growing up, they come into the salon for the annual spring shearing.
"I've cut a lot of long hair in the past few weeks," said Nichole Sappington, hair stylist at The Total Look, 708 W. Ninth St. "A lot of it has to do with them getting out of college, getting rid of that 'college look.'"
Whether students like it or not, they graduate, and once unfamiliar phrases, such as health insurance, car payments and haircuts roll off their lips.
Angel Radefeld, hair stylist at Headmasters, 809 Vermont St.
said that when women start interviewing for jobs, they cut and style their hair, begin wearing more make-up and change their wardrobes significantly.
"This is the beginning of the real world," she said.
She said students changed their appearance to look older and more business-like.
The professional look for women is usually a crop cut just below the ears, with some layers, hair stylists say.
"Usually, the one's with longer hair tend to try to stay at shoulder length, maybe to the chin, with layers. They don't want to go too drastic at first." Radefeld said.
Sappington said that graduating women were looking for something a little more professional, with a little more style.
Men are no exception to the post-
graduation hair bob.
"Guys are cutting their hair from long to short and want to know how to style it." Radefeld said. "Most of them are just worried about interviewing."
The professional look for men is a style that is more clean cut, tapered and styled, Radefeld said.
"It's that Meirone-man look," she said.
Growing up also involves cleaning up and maintaining facial hair. "Guys also shed their goatees." Radefeld said.
Some KU students say that cutting their hair is not so much about finding a job but more about starting new a chapter in their lives.
Kory Krahl, Westwood senior,
said he had long hair for most of
his life before he cut it off during
the fall semester.
"When I was a little kid in the seventh grade, I wanted to be a rock star and nothing else." Krahl said. "Then after a certain level of judgment, which came with a little bit of maturity, I realized it was time to cut it and join reality."
Krahl said that long hair did have its advantages when he was growing up.
"When I was in high school, I couldn't grow a beard," he said. "So it was my way of looking older. It was handy to buy liquor."
Lainie Misler, Overland Park senior, has had dreadlocks for the past three years. Recently, she decided she was ready for a change and cut them off. She said she left as much length as possible, which was about an inch.
He said that long hair was like a crutch and that he did not need it anymore because he had moved into a new phase of his life.
"I realized that I didn't know what I looked like as an adult," Krahl said.
"I'm ending a stage in my life and starting a new one," she said.
Misler said that graduation had partially influenced her decision to cut her hair and that she also was concerned about getting a job.
I'm going to be certified in the "all for teaching," she said. "It's going to be a lot easier to get a job without being discriminated against because of your hair."
Junior high students get taste of the law
By Emily Reid Special to the Kansan
Lawrence junior high students became criminals, attorneys and Supreme Court justices during Thurgood Marshall Law Day at the University of Kansas Thursday and Friday.
The 100 students from Central, West, South and Southwest junior high schools gathered at Green Hall to participate in the event, which was organized by the University of Kansas chapter of the Black Law Students Association.
Judges from the Kansas Court of Appeals conducted mock trials dealing with drug testing and the Fourth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution.
Nick Luna, South Junior High student, said that he enjoyed the workshops.
Each of the four junior high schools selected 25 students who were interested in law to participate in the program. Students attended workshops and interacted with a panel of speakers, which included district attorney Christine Tonkovich, Lt. Dan Affalter of Lawrence Police Department and a representative from the Douglass County Sheriff's office.
"They show us what can happen to you if you get involved in drugs or gangs," Luna said. "It's cool because they don't preach to us, they just tell it like it is."
Richard Prince, Lawrence third year law student and National Director of Community Service for the National Black Law Students Association, developed the idea for the University's Thirgood Marshall Law Day
Prince said he was inspired by a similar program in Wichita, which he attended in eighth grade. He participated in mock trials and group discussions, much like the ones that the University presented.
The University's program is in its second year, and Prince said he hoped it would continue into the future.
"With support from teachers, the school board, the BLSA and corporate sponsors, all who are committed to the success of the program, we should be able to make it a permanent fixture at

Police officers from the Lawrence Police Department brought in two police dogs and presented a mock narcotics search.

DHARMSALA, India — For nearly four decades, Tibetans have been making the treacherous journey across the Himalayas to escape Chinese rule, taking refuge in exile with their revered leader, the Dalai Lama.
Now, the illicit traffic through the high, snow-covered passes is increasingly moving in both directions. The Dalai Lama wants young educated Tibetans to return to their homeland to keep Tibetan traditions alive.
The Tibetans go the way they came: on foot, braving frostbite and hunger, evading Chinese border patrols. They say they are escaping back.
Chinese officials deny trying to stamp out Tibetan culture and denounce the Dalai Lama and his followers as separatists bent on winning independence for Tibet
International human rights groups say China, which claims sovereignty over Tibet, has flooded the forbidding Tibetan plateau with ethnic Chinese settlers and seeks to destroy the indigenous culture. The Dalai Lama accuses China of committing cultural genocide and wants to negotiate autonomy for the land he ruled unchallenged until 1950.
Alongside the steady flow of refugees moving southward across the Tibet-Nepal border, there has always been a smaller stream going north into Tibet; traders and smugglers; professional guides for refugee groups; pilgrims returning home after receiving a blessing from the Dalai Lama.

who deposit their brightest children at the Dalai Lama's boarding schools in India and return to their remaining family in Tibet.
Some of these children nurtured in India, armed with an education and political awareness, are going home. In the last 10 years, as many as 1,000 have gone back, said Sonam Topgail, chairman of the Tibetan exile administration.
Many are found, arrested and interrogated. To avoid jail, some sign denunciations of the Dalai Lama. Afterwards, they are kept under surveillance. Usually they are the first to be picked up at the first sign of popular unrest, Topqal said.
Since the Dalai Lama fled Tibet in 1959 during an abortive anti-China uprising, 100,000 Tibetans have joined him in India. Thousands more live in Europe and North America.
About 2,000 Tibetans make the hazardous exit across the mountains every year to reach Kamtandu, Nepal's capital, where officers of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees register them. From there, they are bused to the northern Indian city of Dharmsala, the Dalai Lama's base in exile.
Nude bar provides beer sketching opportunities
The Associated Press
A dozen people sitting in straight-backed chairs at cheap tables watch closely, unabashedly. They are drinking beer.
PHILADELPHIA — A woman with jet-black hair and porcelain skin pulls off her clothing, strides confidently to the center of a stage and starts contorting her arms and legs this way and that.
Beer? Nudes? Hold on. It is not what you think.
"If you pay for a class, you feel like you damn better come up with something good," Smith said.
"Here, you just feel relaxed."
The woman is a studio-model-fire. The gazers? They are artists, and Philadelphia's new Art Bar is their new favorite watering hole.
Three days a week, the bar supplies a model, and artists bring their sketch pads to the dimly lighted tavern with cheap beer.
"This is like being back in art school," said 32-year-old Michelle Smith, a typical customer here. "With beer."
The Art Bar is about the only place frustrated artistic wannabes can do fundamental studio art for free. The other option is enrolling in art school classes at $5 a session.
She studied fine arts, then realized she could not make any money as an artist and found a job teaching elementary school.
How can she not? The model chats up with the artists during breaks. Bob Dylan and Elvis Costello songs roll out of the jukebox, and Guinness and Rolling Rock flow freely. It is exactly the feeling owner David Simons sought when he came up with the idea last year.
He has developed a place for folks who would never consider paying for an art class.
"This presents itself, so you might as well try it," Simons said. "They say, 'Oh no, I don't draw. But they come and try it a few times and they really get into it.'"
Unlike a session-for-pay, no teacher is looking over their shoulders to criticize this shape or that line. Some artists sketch just a few lines. Others draw more elaborate color portraits.
"It allows you to express yourself more," said graphic designer Rose Drew, 32. "Music seems to help, drinking sometimes seems to help. It's cathartic."
Simons hopes his drink-and-draw concept, plus the poetry readings, alternative music, pool league and $1.50 bottles of beer, will turn the Art Bar into a meeting place for the artists — and people with artistic bents.
"It's like 'Cheers!' for art," said Dawn Marie Morpurgo, who arranges the poetry readings.

Miscue throws weekend series
Texas Tech takes game after miss in ninth inning
By John Blakely Wilson
Kansan sportswriter
Kansas (17-18) has been close to knocking off nationally ranked teams, but small miscues in close games have stopped the team. After losing 18-3 Friday, Kansas bounced back to a 4-1 victory Saturday but yesterday's loss turned the weekend into another losing series.
Kansas pitcher Mark Corson picked up a dribbler and gunned the ball to second base, looking for a force play in the top of the ninth inning of a 4-4 game with nationally ranked Texas Tech (29-13).
Shortstop John Nelson did not have his eyes on the ball and it sailed by his glove into center field. Texas Tech scored on the play. Kansas allowed three more runs in the inning, losing 7-4.
"We walked too many, struck out too much and made defensive mistakes." Kansas coach Bobby Randall said. "We can't dwell on those things -- baseball is a game that is played over a season, not just one game."
Rusty Philbrick started on the mound Sunday, working six and two-third innings and allowing three runs. Third baseman Sparky Wilhelm had three hits, finishing the series with seven hits in 12 at bats. Poor defense again plauged Kansas. Nelson had a rough game with four errors.
"We have to find a way to step up in close games with all the ones we've lost." Wilhelm said. "Great teams win close games."
The Jayhawks were defeated Friday night behind an outstanding game by Texas Tech catcher Josh Bard and third baseman Keith Ginter.
Bard, whose older brother is Kansas assistant coach Mike Bard, hit three
home runs and a triple while driving in eight runs. The younger Bard spent last summer catching for the United States Olympic Team and was Big 12 Freshman of the Year in 1997.
"We spent a lot of time out on the diamond working on hitting growing up," Bard said. "I still want to get him out every time he comes to the plate against us."
Ginter, a consensus All-American last season, went 6-for-6 and scored five runs in the game.
Pitchers Brian Schriner, Chad Shuster and Josh Bailey combined to give the Jayhawks one of their best pitching performances of the year Saturday. Schriner started and worked six and one-third innings, allowing Texas Tech's only run of the game. Shuster worked one inning, and Bailey picked up his first save in an inning and one third.
Catcher Josh Dimmick and Wilhelm led the Kansas offense with two hits and one run batted in each. Dimmick also had a solo home run.
The Jayhawks play a home-andhome series with traditional power Wichita State on Tuesday and Wednesday.

Strong winds don't blow Kansas regatta
By Marc Sheforgen

Kansan staff writer
It was parent's weekend for the Kansas women's rowing team, and the Jayhawks did not disappoint, fighting through strong winds to capture two first-place finishes at Saturday's Kansas Regatta.
The Varsity Eight and the Varsity Lightweight Eight docked with smiles on their faces after holding off Kansas State. Texas and Creighion.
Coach Rob Catloth was especially pleased with the victory in the final race of the day, the Varsity Eight. Kansas had lost to K-State last fall and again last week in Iowa. Saturday it was all Jayhawks, as they trounced the Wildcats by more than five seconds.
"We won the premier race of the day," Catloth said. "It was like winning a Big 12 Championship for us."
Coxswain Nikia Rosenberger said the victory was especially rewarding because the rowers had been struggling with focus and mental toughness during previous races.
"Today everything was there," Rosenberger said. "Everything was clicked."
Amy Hathaway, who rowed in the lightweight four, said that the team's stamina was improving as a result of good winter workouts.
"Our boat keeps on improving every race we have," Hathaway said. "We're feeling more confident and comfortable every time out."
Saturday's regatta was scheduled to be held on the Kansas River, but had to be moved because the river was overflowing and there were too many tree branches obstructing the course. Instead action took place at Clinton Lake's Bloomington Park.
Following the regatta was a barbecue sponsored by the University of Kansas Athletics Department. Rowers, parents and other spectators gathered to feast on sandwiches, potato salad, baked beans and soda.
Next for the Jayhawks is a regatta at Kansas State this weekend.
Wind winds down doubleheaders with losses

Kansas softball team battled the elements, Sooners, Cowboys
By Laura Bokenkroger
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas softball team has struggled in close games this season, dropping 18 games by two runs or less.
In two doubleheaders against Oklahoma and Oklahoma State this weekend, the Jayhawks dropped three of four games.
Battling a strong wind yesterday afternoon at Jayhawk Field, Kansas was swept by the fifth-ranked Oklahoma Sooners.
The first game was a pitchers' duel between Kowal and Oklahoma hurler Lana Moran.
The Jayhawks were held to two hits in the shutout. Oklahoma scraped out a run on four hits in the top of the fifth innings for a 1-0 win.
Kansas fell 1-0 in all three.
in the second game, despite the wind slowing fly balls, both teams managed to pick up more hits.
"The wind was a huge factor," said Kansas coach Tracy Bunge. "It was not a hitters' day. The wind makes it tough to swing the bat. It wears you out."
Both teams struggled to string the hits together, sending the scoreless game into extra innings.
The Sooners loaded the bases in the top of the ninth. Oklahoma catcher Ashli Barrett hit a shot to center field scoring the winning run for Oklahoma, despite a perfect throw by Kansas center fielder Julie True.
"It was frustrating because we had the
opportunity to win, but we just didn't get the key hit." Bunge said.
"We're playing a lot better," True said.
"We competed with the fifth-ranked team in the country, and in a way, it is a confidence builder."
Both of Kansas' opponents last weekend were nationally ranked teams, and True said keeping the games close proves that Kansas was a good team.
Against No. 8 Oklahoma State, the Jayhawks split their fifth consecutive doubleheader in April.
In the first game Saturday, the Jayhawks were unable to score despite posting seven hits, including a two-hit performance by left fielder Sara Holland and shortstop Michelle Hubler.
Pitcher Jessi Kowal gave up only one run on six hits, but it was all the Cowgirls needed to win 1-0.
In the second game, the Jayhawks scored in the first inning when Hubler hit an RBI single to right field, bringing Holland home for the lead.
Kansas pitcher Christy McPhail held the Cowgirls scorele through five innings. McPhail gave up the no-hitter in the sixth inning, and walked two batters to load the bases.
Kowal came in to pitch, and the Cowgirls picked up a run to tie the game.
The Jayhawks play Wichita State at 3 and 5 p.m. tomorrow at Jayhawks Field.
Kansas took the lead again when third baseman Sarah McCann hit an RBI single to center field that scored right fielder Jennifer Funkhouser.
Holland picked up an RBI to score second baseman Lezli Leathers, putting the Jayhawks up 3-1. Kowal gave up only one hit in the seventh to secure the win for the Jayhawks.

The Kansas wind blew at the K.T. Woodman Track Classic Saturday, but the Kansas track and field team wasn't blown away by the competition.
Track teams perform well in Wichita
At Cessna Stadium in Wichita, the Jayhawk men took the top team honors against Kansas State and Wichita State. Kansas took the lead after seven events and never looked back. Kansas finished with 147 points. K-State with 141 points and Wichita State with 105 points.
Kansan sportswriter
Coach Gary Schwartz said that the athletes had to compete, regardless of the wind.
"You don't call off a football game because it's cold and snowy," Schwartz said. "An athlete has to compete in all kinds of situations and all kinds of weather conditions. That's the mark of a quality athlete."
The Kansas men dominated in the triple jump and the 3,000-meter run. Ricardo Ameczuca and Jerry Pullins finished first and second in the 3,000-meter run. Ameczuca, Acambaro, Mexico sophomore, won with a time of 8:44.70. Pullins, Middletown, R.I., senior, finished at 8:46.10.
Lester Smith, St. Louis junior, leaped 50 feet to win the triple jump, and Marc Scheid, Overland Park senior, took second with a jump of 48 feet, 5 inches.
Scheid was the winner in the men's long jump. His personal record of 25 feet, 2 inches is only one and one-half inches

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (April 14)
Do great things this year with help from your friends. A secret leads to true love in May. Save every spare cent in June and July. Go on an excursion in September. Take the trip of a lifetime in January. Friends come through in March. Rely on an older person who knows in April.
Aries: Today is a 6.
Is there anything you are supposed to have done? It may not be due until tomorrow, but that still does not give you much time. Go shopping for gifts in the morning.
Taurus: Today is a 7.
Not enough money? No problem. If you want to go out to lunch but you cannot afford the restaurants, take a picnic in the park with food brought from home.
Gemini: Today is a 4.
It would be a mistake to assume you are smarter than a Pisces. You are more verbal. Pisces is the sign of the genius. You should always listen to Pisceans with respect.
Cancer: Today is an 8.
You may be tempted to try something new. With support from a friend this morning, push yourself into a new lifestyle. Your adventure may be mental rather than physical.
If you are going to make a deal concerning your work, do it first thing this morning. Later this afternoon, conditions change and things are more likely to go wrong.
Virgo: Today is a 9.
Libra: Today is a 3.
Scorpio: Today is a 9.
You are busy. Not only are there difficult chores on your agenda, but a mild state of confusion has come. Do not quit your job, but you could start looking for a better one.
Sagittarius: Today is a 3.
You could spend this day at home in bed. If you have any sick time, it is not a bad idea to use it. If you are not really sick, call it preventive medicine.
It does not get much better than this. If you have been thinking about getting married, do not wait a moment longer. Make or renew the commitment.
Capricorn: Today is an 8.
Not only are you in love, but you are also very imaginative. Make a creative suggestion early this morning. By later on in the afternoon, you will feel a bit more inhibited.
Aquarius: Today is a 5.
It is a good time to buy real estate, if you can scrape together the down payment. Be available for a friend whose dreams seem to be falling apart.
Pisces: Today is an 8.

Scheid has the top mark for long jump in the Big 12 Conference.
"It was good to see where we are against K-State," he said. "We know we can beat them, and it's a confidence booster going into conference."
Scheid said the team win was important for looking ahead to the conference meet.
Nathan Prenger and Scott Russell also were event winners for the Jayhawks. Prenger, Jefferson City, Mo., senior, won the men's 110m high hurdles in 14.4 seconds.
"Today I just wanted to run a safe race—get the win and get the points," he said.
Prenger said that he was beginning to feel healthy again and that he would compete in the decathlon this weekend, either at the Arkansas Invitational or the Mt. Sac Relavs in Walnut, Calif.
The decathlete said he had been fighting a nagging hamstring pull since the indoor season. The injury had forced him to withdraw from the indoor conference championship.
"This could be a great year to shine if I can put it all together," he said.
Russell, Windsor, Ontario freshman, won the javelin event. His winning throw of 223 feet, 6 inches was 20 feet farther than the second-place throw. Russell also placed third in the shot put and the hammer throw.
In other men's events, Kevir McGinn, Emporia sophomore placed second in the 1,500m rur with a time of 4:00.85, losing by

Tennis teams split senior weekend
944 Mass.
832-8228
By Eric Weslander
PENNEY
Kansan sports editor
No. 25 Baylor crushed the Kansas men's tennis team during its senior day festivities yesterday at Alvamar Racquet Club by beating the Javahawks 5-2.
The loss eliminated 39th-ranked Kansas (8-11 overall), 4-3 Big 12 Conference) from the Big 12 regular season title chase and guaranteed a record below.500 for the first time since 1989.
The Jayhawks' only victories came at No. 2 singles, where senior Xavier Avila defeated David Hodge (6-3, 3-6, 6-3), and No. 6 singles, where freshman Ed Dus beat Jaro Turek in straight sets (6-2, 6-2).
Avila and seniors Enrique Abaroa, Trent Tucker and Scott Marshall were honored between matches.
No. 62-ranked Abaroa returned to singles action. He had missed several weeks because of a sprained back. His return was less than glorious — he was upset (6-3, 6-4) at No. 1 singles by No. 81 Johann Jooste.
"I'm disappointed we didn't win because our seniors didn't get to go out as they should; winners," men's tennis coach Mark Riley said. "They've done great things for our program."
"We've been up and down all season. Today was the perfect example of that." Riley said. "Fortunately, we're getting healthy again. If we play to our abilities, we have a lot to look forward to."
Saturday, the men's and women's teams netted solid wins against Texas Tech at the Robinson tennis courts.
Senior day was more successful for the No. 13-ranked women's team. Seniors Christie Sim and Maria Abatjoglou went out in winning fashion as the Jayhawks (17-2 overall, 9-0 Big 12) cruised to an 8-1 victory.
Sim and sophomore Brooke Chiller won 8-5 at No. 1 doubles, and Abatjoglou and junior Kris Sell won 9-8 at No. 3 doubles.
Senior Kylie Hunt sat out her fourth-straight match because of an inflamed lung.
The Jayhawks took an early lead by winning four-of-six singles matches. The Red Raiders' only win was at No. 2 singles, where Amanda Earhart upset

No. 79 Sell, (2-6, 7-5, 7-6 (5).)
The team, which also beat No. 38 Baylor 6-3 on Friday, preserved its perfect Big 12 record and won its 11th consecutive match.
"We played well all the way up to the end to win it," women's tennis coach Roland Thornqvist said. "I think everybody did a good job of playing hard."
Tucker and Dus won their matches in straight sets as the men's team beat the No. 51-ranked Red Raiders 5-2.
Tucker defeated Wojteck Stasiak (6-1, 6-2) at No. 4 singles, and Dus defeated Adam Baranowski (Dus 6-2, 7-5).
The men's team will play at Texas Thursday. The women's team will play Saturday when it travels to Texas A&M.

"I started three back and I shot a 67," Duval said. "Doggone it, that ought to be enough to win here, but it wasn't."
The 70 posted by Couples was also good enough — except for an adventure through the trees and water on No.13, where he made a double bogey.
O'Meara had played in 56 major championships without winning, but when that streak ended yesterday at Augusta National Golf Club he thrust his arms defiantly into the air and wrapped them around caddie Jerry Higgenhothem.
Couples and Duval both played well enough to win but were victims of O'Meara's hot putter. O'Meara averaged barely more than 26 puts a round and had the fewest in the tournament with 105.
Official Academic Regalia:
The birdie on No. 18 marked the only time O'Meara led during the four days of play.
"I don't think it's sunk in yet," O'Meara said after close friend and defending champion Tiger Woods put the green jacket on him and gave O'Meara a big hug. "I'll treasure it for a lifetime."

AUGUSTA, Ga. — Mark O'Meara snatched the Masters title with a 20-foot birdie putt on the final hole and stole the show from the master of them all — Jack Nicklaus — who made a thrilling run at a seventh green jacket.
Hitting to seven feet on No.17 and then making the 20-footer on the last hole, O'Meara became the first player since Arnold Palmer in 1960 to win the Masters by closing with two consecutive birdies.
Fred Couples and O'Meara — playing together — were also at eight under, but Couples, who drove into the fairway bunker and then hit the greenside bunker, also finished in second at 280.
The tournament appeared headed for a playoff when David Duval, playing in the group in front of O'Meara, missed a 20-foot birdie try on the final hole and finished at an 8-under par 280.
O'Meara sinks first Masters with back-to-back birdies
"I squeezed the towel dry this week," Woods said about the fact he got more out of his game than he perhaps should have.
Winner edges out Couples, Duval with hot putting
Betrayed by erratic iron play, Woods closed with a 70 and a 285 total - 15 strokes higher than last year. But the mere fact that he finished eight despite not playing well displayed what a force he will be in this tournament for years to come.

Duval was five strokes behind Couples through eight holes and six holes later was two ahead, a turnaround reminiscent of the deficit Nick Faldo made over Greg Norman in 1996 on virtually that same stretch of holes.

THE PRESIDENT
Nicklaus once said Woods would win more Masters than Nicklaus and Arnold Palmer combined — that is a total of 10.
Conaratulations!
It appeared Couples had given the tournament away on No. 13 when he drove into the azalea bushes on the left and had to play his next shot off a service road. He handled that but dumped his 161-yard approach shot into the water and made a double-bogey 7 to fall two strokes behind Duval.
Throughout the day, O'Meara was a mere afterthought as the possible winner — until his three birdies on the last four holes.
Only Harry Vardon with six British Open titles has won a major championship as often as Nicklaus has won the Masters.
Instead of increasing that total, O'Meara got his first Masters and first major championship. And now the 14-time winner on the PGA Tour with more than $9 million in career earnings can scratch his name off the list of great golfers who have never won a major championship.
Woods, who shot a record 18-under par last year and won by a record 12 strokes, was never a factor.
Make your trip "down the hill" memorable with the graduation source services at "The top of the hill..."
Couples pulled back into a tie when he hit a 6-iron from 185 yards on the par-5 15th hole to 2 feet and made an eagle while Duval was making a three-putt hoesev on the 16th hole.

Everywhere Nicklaus moved he was followed by shouts of encouragement. As he moved from the seventh green to the eighth tee a man walked along with seven fingers held high in the air over his head — indicating that this would be Nicklaus' seventh Matures title.
Couples missed a 9-foot birdie try on No. 17 while Duval missed from 10 feet. Then it all came down to the final hole and once again O'Meara's putting touch carried him through.
this golf course is."
Playing in his 40th Masters, Nicklaus made four birdies in the first seven holes and was within three strokes of the lead with nine holes to play. But he could not match the 30 he shot on the back nine in 1986 when he won his last Masters at age 46.
Nicklaus brought an unbelievable sense of magic to Augusta National. The moment the ball left his driver on No. 1 man in the massive gallery velled. "Go in the hole."

Mail orders accepted.
Still, his closing round 68 put him at 283. It was the 22nd time he has finished in the top 10 at the Masters.
"I had to try to shoot the lowest score I could and I went after it," Nicklaus said. "I had a chance at the last three holes to make birdies and I missed all three of them. If I had made those I might have been in the hunt."
As his 20-foot eagle putt rounded toward the hole on No. 2, Nicklaus started to dance to his right in a spirited effort to keep the ball from falling off line.
The Masters
As thrilling as the finish was, the 58-year-old Nicklaus all but stole the show.
At 2:50 p.m. the name "Nicklaus" appeared on the leaderboard for the first time yesterday and cheers of appreciation could be heard all over the course. Those cheers cranked up to deafening decibels moments later when Nicklaus chipped in on the third hole for a birdie to get to three under par.
Jim Furyk was fourth at 281. Paul Azinger was fifth at 282, and Nicklaus and David Toms tied for sixth place at 283.
The birdie on No. 18 gave O'Meara a closing round 67 and a 72-hole total of 279 — nine strokes higher than Woods' winning last year. Woods and O'Meara live in the same community near Orlando and are constant golf and fishing companions.
"I used to tell Tiger he had to give me strokes on the par 5s," O'Meara said. "Now he wants me to give him strokes."
O'Meara's victory meant that the last 14 major championships have been won by 14 different players.

Clemson coach to steer Longhorns next season
Rick Barnes accepts position at Texas despite problems
The Associated Press
AUSTIN, Texas — Clemson's Rick Barnes is the new basketball coach at Texas, replacing Tom Penders, the Longhorns' winning coach who resigned after a player revolt.
Barnes met with Clemson players in South Carolina late yesterday
and will be mally introduced at a news conference in Austin this afternoon.
His hiring,
announced last
night in a faxed
news release
from the university,
ends a search that
began when
Penders
resigned April
2.
Barnes: will replace Penders as the Longhorns' coach
The search had focused on Utah's Rick Majerus until Sunday morning, when negotiations broke down with the Utes' coach, according to two university sources who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity.
But Majerus had always been a difficult target because he makes roughly $1 million at Utah, and Texas athletic director DeLoss Dodd had said that the basketball coach wouldn't make more than new football coach Mack Brown, who earns $750.00 annually.
Penders made $550,000 per year.
Barnes, 43, met with Texas officials Thursday in Atlanta and then again in Dallas on Friday, and he impressed screening committee members with his hard-nosed, defense-minded approach.
Dodds has said he would like a coach who stresses defense.
Barnes also fit Dodds' financial criteria, making just under $700,000 per year at Clemson.
Last year, Barnes spurned big
offers from Ohio State and Tennessee, signing a contract with Clemson worth at least $688,000 a year and another $125,000 in bonuses.
An automatic $25,000 bonus for making the NCAA Tournament this year meant that Barnes' base salary next year at Clemson would have been $693,000. He had a $100,000 buyout clause in his contract.
Barnes, who was 74-48 in four years at Clemson, was popular with Tigers fans.
He earned a reputation as a colorful personality by doing remote
BEN ROGERS
radio standups from Clemson fan tailgate parties before football games and by handing out hot chocolate and pizza to students who camped out for tickets to then second-ranked Clemson's game against No. 4 Wake Forest last year
Penders: resigned after players revolted
He also earned a reputation as a fiery competitor by getting in the face of North Carolina coach Dean Smith three years ago, accusing Smith of unfairly badgering Clemson players with criticism during a regular-season game.
The Tigers set a school mark with their third consecutive NCAA appearance this year.
But it was not the year that had been expected. The Tigers were ranked fifth in the AP preseason poll, but injuries and inconsistency dropped them out of the rankings shortly after New Year's Day.
Bad foul shooting and nagging injuries to point guard Terrell McIntyre led to eight Atlantic Coast Conference losses by five points or fewer.
After winning three of their final four games, the Tigers carried a lot of confidence into the NCAA tournament, but they were upset in the first round by Western Michigan and finished 18-14.
Barnes was to be without several key players next season with the departure of senior and leading scorer Greg Buckner, the transfer of junior Tony Christie and graduation of redshirt iker Iker Iturbe.
After next season, Barnes would have had five players to replace, including starters McIntyre, Harold Jamison and Tom Wideman
The Tigers reached the NCAA tournament's round of 16 in 1997, losing in double overtime to Minnesota, which went on to the Final Four.
Barnes' overall mark is 202-134, including one year at George Mason and six at Providence.
Barnes inherits a Texas team that is in disarray. Four young starters, including freshmen Luke Axtell, Chris Mihm and Bernard Smith as well as sophomore Gabe Muonek, met with Dodds on March 8 to say that they had lost faith in Penders and his program.
The meeting began a month of controversy that included the suspension of Axtell for academic reasons; the release of Axtell's grades to a radio station; and the resignation of Penders, who received a settlement package of roughly $850,000.
Muoneke, who threatened to transfer, has said he will stay at Texas. Axtell, the second-leading scoreer on this year's team, has received his release to transfer and reportedly is considering Kansas and Texas Tech.
Penders had a record of 208-110 in 10 seasons at Texas and took the Longhorns to the NCAA tournament eight times.
The Texas coaching search also included Washington's Bob Bender, who was considered a front-runner for the job until he and Oklahoma's Kelvin Sampson dropped out of consideration last week after interviewing with Longhorns officials.
North Carolina assistant coach Phil Ford also was interviewed. Wake Forest's Dave Odom declined to interview with Texas.

Favorites gallop to Derby
The Associated Press
Horse of the Year trainer Bill Mott mulled Favorite Trick's status for the Kentucky Derby in light of his first defeat in 10 races.
"We'll need some time to get our thoughts together," Mott said after Favorite Trick finished third in the Arkansas Derby on Saturday at Oakland Park, less than a half-length behind winner Victory Gallop and runner-up Hanuman Highway.
Mott and his horse arrived in Louisville, Ky., on Sunday to begin Deby preparations.
"We're here and we're going to proceed forward as though we're going to run in the Derby," he said. "Unless we see some reason not to in the next three weeks, then we're going to keep pointing in that direction."
With Favorite Trick at Churchill Downs, where he was unbeaten in three starts for former trainer Patrick Byrne, Mott is anticipating a competitive Derby.
"I think it's still wide open, I really do." Mott said. "I think there's some good horses. I think the fact is there's some doggone nice horses, but I don't
Kentucky Derby
see anybody that's standing out so far above the crowd that you can't think about anybody else."
Favorite Trick, coming off a win in the seven-furlong Swale on March 14 at Gulfstream Park, shot out of the gate and was only a length off the pace after a quarter-mile in a rapid 22 2/5 seconds. He was in the lead after a half mile in 46 seconds and he kept it until Victory Gallop and Hanuman Highway passed him in the stretch in the Arkansas Derby.
"He was just too anxious today," said Pat Day, Favorite Trick's jockey. "He has always been a horse that I could settle down early in his races. I knew it was suicide to be up head to head with the leader (Battle Royale) around the first turn, but I couldn't talk him into relaxing."
Another horse, Halory Hunter, is going to the Kentucky Derby as one of the leading contenders after beating favored Lil's Lad in the Blue Grass Stakes at Keeneland.
way also were on the plane back to Kentucky.
Halory Hunter kept closer to the pace than usual by Gary Stevens, took the lead from Lil's Lad and won by 21/2 lengths in 1:47 4/5.
Lil's Lad and third-place Cape Town are going to the Derby.
Dice Dancer finished 21/2 lengths behind Coronado's Quest, who won the Wood Memorial in 1:47 2/5.
"I don't think we're going to Kentucky," said Allen Jerkens, the winning trainer. "I like to stay right here in New York."
Coronado's Quest behaved himself and won the Wood Memorial on Saturday at Aqueduct, but the colt, who threw temper tantrums while being saddled for three races in Florida, will not go to Louisville.
"The Derby is out of the question," owner Stuart Janney said. "It would not be fair to him."
The hoopla of Derby Day at Churchill Downs can unnerve even a calm horse.
Stables prepare horses for Derby winner's circle
LEXINGTON, Ky. — Rick Pitino is going back to Kentucky, not for basketball, but to have a ball at the Derby.
He also has a legitimate shot to end up in the Derby winner's circle on May 2 with Halory Hunter, a stretch runner who upset front-running Lil's Lad in the Blue Grass Stakes Saturday at Keeneland.
The Associated Press
"I'm only serious when it comes to basketball," Pitino said by phone from Suffolk Downs, where he watched the Blue Grass on television. "Just to have the Celtic Pride Stable in the Derby is enough. Win or lose, we're going to have an incredible time."
M. A. MUHAMED AL-ZAFFARI
Pitino, who won an NCAA title with Kentucky in 1996 and now coaches the Boston Celtics, is managing partner of the three-man Celtic Stable, which owns two-thirds of Halory Hunter. Abrahim Moubarak owns one-third of the colt.
"I was estatic with the way he was coming up to the race," trainer Nick Zito said.
than usual and also on the rail, the fast part of the track, by jockey Gary Stevens. He shot past Cape Town and then favored Lil's Lad in the upper stretch and went on to beat Lil's Lad by 21/2 lengths. It was his first victory in four starts this year and his third in nine career races. He has been worse than third only once.
Halory Hunter was kept closer to the pace
The victory will make Halory Hunter one of the Derby favorites.
Lil's Lad and Cape Town also are headed for the Derbv.
"The horse has won some nice races and is a nice horse," said Neal Howard, trainer of Lil's Lad, winner of three of five starts this year and five of eight in his career." I am disappointed, but maybe I didn't do that good of a job preparing for the race. Nick's horse ran a heck of a race."
"He ran a very game race, but he didn't run like he's capable of," said Jerry Bailey, Lil's Lad rider. "He's capable of running a whole lot better."
"I am sure everybody will move on to the Derby," said D. Wayne Lukas, trainer of thirdplace Cape Town, winner of two of four starts this year and five of 10 career races.
Bailey now faces a choice for the Derby because he also rides Indian Charlie, the Santa Anita Derby winner, for trainer Bob Baffert.
"I have no commitment," Bailey said. "I'll be in contact with Bob Baffert and Nick next week. I know they'll want an early decision."

Garden to be torn down; myths, legends will remain
The Associated Press
BOSTON — Boston Garden sits like a prisoner on death row, sentenced to obsolecence by the $160 million arena next door.
Hunkered beneath a cloud of dust raised by a massive highway tunnel project and eaten from the inside out by souvenir hunters and
MOSCOW CELTICS
workers removing asbestos, the old barn is a dusty shell.
cranes knocked the last breath out of a place that once roared with life, providing a stage for Bobby Orr, the champion Celtics and everything from rock 'n' roll to rodeos.
With less than one foot of space separating the building from the new Fleet Center, the destruction will not be dramatic. The building will come down the way it went up—piece by piece.
This week end, the final phase of the demolition began. The
Those who played there, along with scores of die-hard fans, Garden employees and pigeons, have precious little time to bid farewell to the titanic place they used to call home.
"It's ironic, really, that I would have to issue permits for the demolition," said Martin Pierce, the Boston fire commissioner and coach of the Matignon High School hockey team, which won five state titles in the Garden.
As a child living in the nearby Charlestown neighborhood, Pierce used to sell papers at the Garden.
The memories include a few myths that might as well be torn down along with the building, which opened in 1928.
"You can take down the building, but you can't erase the memories," said Bruin center Milt Schmidt, 79, whose No. 15 was retired and raised to the old rafters.
One is that the Garden was overrun with rats. But, either out of
sympathy for the place or because the critters stayed out of sight, no one interviewed for this story would admit to ever seeing one.
The tallest Garden tales involved the Celtics and their cigar-smoking coach, Red Auerbach.
Opponents believed the parquet floor had strategically placed dead spots that gave the Celtics an advantage. Forget it, said former Celtic, John Havlicek.
"There were dead spots, but you never knew where they were going to be," Havlicek said, "because it depended on how the gang put the floor down on a given night."
The floor, constructed from scraps by the East Boston Lumber Co. during a shortage of materials after World War II, was installed before each game, each section secured by brass screws and bolts. On nights when the crew was a little lax, a square or two might be loose.
But excuses outnumbered dead spots. "If you were dribbling, and you made a mistake with the ball, you would talk about the dead spots." Havlicek said.
The floor survives, having been moved into the Fleet Center in 1985.
So does Auerbach, today a vice chairman of the Celtics' board, who acknowledged that fear of dead spots worked against opponents.
All kinds of hoop gremlins sprang from the Garden's bowels. The visiting locker rooms were too warm, and the visitors' showers were cold — a plot suspected to be concocted by Auerbach, who also was rumored to have been chomping on the same cigar for about 100 years.
"When the visitors had cold water, we had cold water, too," Havlicek said. "But the other teams always thought Red did it to them on purpose."
"Red didn't dispute any of it. He wanted them to think that he was doing it to them. It gave us an advantage."
Havlicek's — and perhaps the Garden's — greatest moment was when he deflected an inbounds pass by Hal Greer in the final seconds of
a 110-109 playoff win against the 76ers in Game 7 of the 1965 NBA Eastern Conference finals.
And that brought another riveting moment; the screaming, gravely voice of late Celtic broadcaster Johnny Most: "Havlicek stole the ball! Havlicek stole the ball! It's all over..."
The highlight is rivaled only by the image of Orr flying through the air, aided in flight by the stick of St. Louis defenseman Noel Picard, after scoring the winning goal in 1970 to give the Bruins their first Stanley cup in 29 years.
There is no shortage of memories. Larry Baird secured a big piece of Garden lore when he stole an inbounds pass from Isiah Thomas and fed Dennis Johnson for a layup and a win against the Detroit Pistons in the 1987 Eastern Conference finals.
A local kid named Tony DeMarco strolled into the Garden from Boston's Italian North End neighborhood on April 1, 1955, and won the welterweight title from Johnny Saxton. After winning, he treated himself to a cab ride home.
During the blizzard of 1978, college hockey's Beanpot tournament went on as scheduled while the raging storm piled snow, rearranged the coastline and paralyzed the state. Players and fans camped at the arena overnight.
"Time marches on," said former Boston player and coach Tommy Heinsohn, who scored 37 points and grabbed 23 rebounds in a double-overtime Game 7 win against St. Louis for the Celtics' first NBA title in 1956-57, said Garden will be remembered because of the accomplishments of the teams who played there.
"The feel of the old Boston Garden was all the excitement that happened there. Since they built the new building, the teams haven't won that much. People don't remember the building as much as they remember what went on there.
"Having played my whole career there, of course I'm going to miss it."

Coalitions contrast about debate issues

The leaders of the two coalitions running for Student Senate used last night's debate to re-emphasize their platforms and to point out how the coalitions differed.
Campus Cause and Delta Force candidates for student body president and student body vice president answered questions for about one and one-half hours at the Big 12 Room in the Kansas Union. About 120 people attended the debate, which was sponsored by the elections commission.
The dominant topic of the evening was how to increase KU students' involvement with Senate.
Emily Heath, Delta Force candidate for student body president, said students had told her that Delta Force's commitment to the issues was increasing student interest in Senate.
"Students are looking for something new, and we're giving that to them," Heath said. "We're giving them passion, we're giving them energy and we're giving them beliefs."
"We're not here for a revolution," he said. "We feel KU is pretty good, and we want to make it even better."
Kevin Yoder, Campus Cause candidate for student body president, said his coalition wanted to make sure Student Senate represented all of the students' needs. He said Campus Cause candidates had been involved in many leadership positions on campus, showing a commitment to the University.
Scott Kaiser, Campus Cause candidate for student body vice president, said the issues that Campus Cause covered were campus concerns, not merely coalition concerns.
"We got together to think of ways we can solve problems and make
Senate more effective." Kaiser said.
Matt Dunbar, Delta Force vice presidential candidate, said Delta Force had been working for the past year to better represent students at the University through Senate.
"I think it's wonderful that we're willing to stick around and be held accountable." Dunbar said.
Another highly discussed topic of the evening was campus safety.
Heath promoted Delta Force's initiative to sponsor a safewalk program in which teams of students would serve as nighttime escorts for people on campus.
Yoder said safewalk programs had not worked at other campuses.
"If someone is burglarizing your car, an escort won't be able to help you," he said.
Yoder said a Campus Cause Senate would work to expand the role of Saferide as well as increase the number of police on campus, noting the low police-to-student ratio at the University compared with other universities.
Paul Kim, Springfield, Mo., freshman, said that he did not support either coalition entirely and that he attended the debate to hear both sides' positions.
"They've both got great ideas," Kim said.

Advisers arouse party dispute
By Marc Sheforgen
msheforgen@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Last year's Student Senate elections were clouded with controversy concerning a campaign adviser.
Scott Sullivan and Mike Walden, who won the student body president and vice president positions with the Unite coalition, each paid $230 in fines for receiving campaign advice from former student Travis Harrod without reporting it to the elections commission.
This year's elections hold no secrets as to who the advisers are, but some members of each coalition think the presidential and vice president candidates are only puppets, with advisers calling the important shots.
Delta Force does not have any official campaign managers, while Campus Cause has two. None of the positions are paid.
Scott Merchant and Tom Moore are the campaign managers for the Campus Cause coalition, working in different capacities to ensure victory for Kevin Yoder. Scott Kaiser and the other 60 some candidates.
Yoder, Campus Cause candidate for student body president, said Merchant has helped his coalition

Remembering a friend
"You are with me for eternity. You are and always will be my best friend for life."
- Rachel Assal, Overland Park resident, in a letter to Rosel

Rosel's memory remains
Friends and family remember victim
By Laura Roddy
lroddy@kansan.com
Kansan staff.
As the sun faded yesterday, friends and family gathered at the base of the Campanile to share memories of Lisa Rosel.
The 19-year-old Overland Park freshman was fatally injured March 31 when she was struck by a vehicle in the 1400 block of Tennessee Street.
About 60 people attended the 7 p.m. memorial service, organized by Lori Ravis, Overland Park freshman. The memorial was informal, and anyone was invited to share thoughts, poems or memories of Rosel.
"Lisa Rosel was a beautiful person, inside and out," Ravis said.
Rachel Assal, Overland Park resident, wrote a letter to Rosel and asked Keily Keirsey, Overland Park sophomore and Rosel's friend, to read the letter during the memorial service.
"You are with me for eternity," Assal wrote. "You are and always will be my best friend for life."
Rosel, a Gertrude Sellards Pearson resident, loved to be surrounded by friends and family.
"Anytime I needed to talk about anything, she was there," said Keirsey, Rosel's roommate at the residence hall. "She touched my life so much. There're just so many memories."
Friends told stories of a fun-loving and caring person and laughed upon remembering Rosel's light-hearted nature.
"Truly, she was one of the nicest people that's ever been a part of my life," Ravis said.
Ravis asked her friend Scott Goodman, St. Louis junior, to play
his guitar at the service. Friends and family stood and swayed with their arms around each other while Goodman played *Brown-Eyed Girl* and *You've Got a Friend*.
Rosel's father, Walter, said his home always would be open to his daughter's friends. He also asked them to treasure life.
"Time goes swiftly," he said. "Make the best of everything, and do it well."
As the crowd began to disperse and the sun went down, supporters burned candles in Rosel's memory.
"Life is precious," Walter Rosel said. "Life is short. Life is wonderful. Use Lisa as an example if you can."

Legislature doles out $4.5 million to University
By Brandon Copley
bcopple@kanson.com
Kanson staff writer
For the University of Kansas, the session could have been worse. The University of Kansas likely will receive everything that Gov. Bill Graves had recommended in the budget he submitted in January.
Chancellor Robert Hemenway said that it was not quite satisfactory but that it did show an increasing recognition among legislators that higher education needs greater financial support.
The smoke that arose during the final battles of the 1998 legislative session is clearing, and from Mount Oread, the victories are becoming apparent — as are the casualties.
The Legislature approved a technology funding increase, gave faculty and staff a modest raise, provided $3 million for the Dole Center and gave the go-ahead for privatization of the University of Kansas Medical Center Hospital.
"I think the governor made a sincere effort to help higher education, and the Legislature responded," he said.
Marlin Rein, director of the budget and governmental relations, said the University had only a few minor issues to watch in omnibus. Graduate teaching assistants, on the other hand, will be watching carefully as legislators continue to debate a bill that would allow the University to provide health insurance for GTAs. However, the bill also would strip GTAs of their status as full-time state employees.
day. Next week, it will reconvene to wrap up the session with omnibus appropriations legislation — the catch-all spending bill that covers any state spending not agreed upon in previous appropriations bills.
Legislators finished the regular session Fri.
Technology funding passed the Legislature without a hitch. The University will receive $1.45 million of the $5 million allocated to Regents schools. That money will be applied to the University's technological infrastructure.
In addition, legislators promised to double instate funding every $1 of student fees dedicated to technology. That money would provide an ongoing source of funds for upgrades and purchases.
The Graduate Teaching Assistant Coalition opposes the bill. GTAC president Mark Horowitz could not be reached for comment.
The University also will receive a 4 percent increase in the money it uses for faculty and staff salaries. Raises will be given on the basis of merit.
Hemenway said that the raise was not enough but that it was better than nothing.
"It is an increase in excess of inflation, and that is better than we've seen in the past few years," he said. "Unfortunately, we're still lagging behind our peer institutions, and we have to be concerned about losing our faculty to those institutions."
The Dole Center funding came through Friday at the last minute. The $3 million recommended by Graves was left out of the original House budget package, but it wound up in the final bill that both chambers passed Friday.
The Med Center Hospital is making the transition from state-agency to its new status as a public authority. Legislators approved the transition in January after compromising on abortion restrictions. Abortions will be prohibited on Med Center property except to protect the mother from death or serious injury.
Miteneway said the transfer to a public authority would be complete by the end of the year, possibly by October.

Empty bomb threat brings police to Super Target
Police responded yesterday morning to a bomb threat at Super Target, 3201 S. Iowa St., but no bomb was found, Lawrence Police Sgt. George Wheeler said.
Wheeler said a female called in the threat just before noon.
Police checked the area and determined that the call was just a threat, he said.
Wheeler said a bomb squad would have been brought in had anything suspicious been found.
Chris Jones, Super Target operations manager, said that the building was not evacuated and that the store remained open.
In bomb-threat cases, police investigate, and it is up to the business to determine whether it should evacuate the building, Wheeler said.

Campus-fees table offers students eight options
Students ignoring optional campus fees during enrollment may be opting out of a sports pass.
The optional campus-fees table is just around the corner from the main enrollment area. It offers students a chance to sign up for eight options: the Student Legislative Awareness Board, $5; the Board of Class Officers, $8 to $10; the Jayhawker Yearbook, $30; KU on Wheels, $60 to $110; an SUA Movie Card, $35; the Ali Arts Package, $148; a student parking permit, $75; and an All-Sports Combo, $91.
The fees are added to students' tuition bills and are mailed with the bills in late July.
Students also can register to vote in Kansas at the optional fees table.
Chris Stoddard, Kansas City, Mo., junior who works at the table, said many students had used the tables' services. Stoddard said that signing up now was important because some options would not be available later.
"The sports pass you can't get anywhere else." he said
Besides getting the basketball tickets, using other optional campus fees is generally a good idea, he said.
The table, open from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. until April 24, is the easiest way to take care of these fees, said Patty Steffan, coordinator of optional campus fees. There were few changes from last semester, and students should act now to avoid inconvenience. Steffan said.
"We've moved over a bit because of the Coke machine," she said. "We're also having a drawing for various things, and that's new too. If you wait, you'll have to go to the individual vendors to get these things. We're also trying to get the word out about the new smart card."
— Gerry Doyle
Steffan said the table helped more than 200 students each day.
Watkins draws praise passes outside accreditation
Watkins Memorial Health Center received a clean bill of health at its latest checkup, said Randall Rock, physician and chief of staff.
Watkins earned high praise after a January survey by Sacred Bodison, a physician who reviewed the University of Kansas student health center for the Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Health Care.
"After having reviewed the substantial application information, we provided to them earlier, they reviewed our processes, our records and personnel and gave us a
full three-year accreditation," Rock said.
Jim Boyle, interim administrator of Watkins, said he was proud of the health center's accreditation.
"I'm extremely pleased that we received the accreditation for the fourth consecutive time and that we received the highest ranking possible in every category," Boyle said. "The reason I think it is important is because it indicates to our students that our quality of care has been evaluated by an impartial organization and has proven to meet the highest standards."
Rock said an additional benefit was that the surveyor had worked at a similar clinic at the University of Maryland.
"We could sit down with her and discuss what works best at both our facilities," Rock said. "She saw some things here that she liked, and she called later for further information."
Since 1988, Watkins has undergone the voluntary accreditation process four times, Rock said. The health center has received the maximum accreditation period of three years all four times, he said.

Lawrence man stabbed during weekend party
A Lawrence resident was stabbed in the neck early Sunday morning in the 1700 block of West 24th Street, Lawrence police said.
Sgt. George Wheeler said the victim, a 26-year-old male, was stabbed at 4 a.m. in an apartment complex during a fight with another man. He was taken by ambulance to Lawrence Memorial Hospital, 325 Maine St., then moved by LifeFlight to another area medical center, where he remains in critical condition, a hospital representative said. The hospital would not release the name of the medical center.
Wheeler said the victim and the suspect, who were acquaintances, both had attended a party in one of the apartments in the complex.

Wheeler said police thought the fight began after the party, when most people were outside of the building.
The stabbing occurred in either the hallway or the stainwell of the complex as people were leaving. he said.
"The victim walked out of the building after he was stabbed." Wheeler said. "What they're saying was he was covered in blood."
Wheeler said the weapon used in the stabbing was thought to be a knife, but it had not been confirmed yet.
"We have recovered some evidence, but I don't know about the knife vet," he said.

Haitian choir to perform tomorrow at Murphy Hall
The Haitian male vocal ensemble Meli Melomane will perform its blend of modern and traditional musical styles during a musical workshop tomorrow in Murphy Hall.
The choral workshop will be conducted by Simon Carrington, director of choral activities. The choral workshop will be at 1:30 p.m. in 328 Murphy and will be free.
Meli Mei is creole for "eclectic mixture", and Melomane means "music lovers." The ages of group members range from 18 to 25 years.
Carrington said the ensemble's strengths included pure tone, smooth harmonies and nuances in phrasing.
The motto of Meli Melomane is We Dare to Dream and Take Risks, and the group brings new life to lyric Renaissance madrigals, black spirituals and Haitian folk tunes, Carrington said.

Trial team makes way to nationals
By Emily C. Forsyth
Kansan staff writer
A group of KU students has worked all semester to crack the case of a celebrity who murdered his son.
As participants in the first mock trial team at the University, seven students argued their way to the National Intercollegiate Mock Trial Tournament in Des Moines, Iowa. Only the top 10 teams were recognized at the tournament. The KU team did not place in the top 10 and still is awaiting the final results.
Pat McAvan and Milt Theologue, Lawrence second-year law students and team coaches, hope the program will gain some support.
"We hope the program doesn't get started and then just fade away because there's no one to pick it up after we leave," McAvan said.
McAvan and Theologou tried to find a faculty member to oversee the program but ended up running the team themselves.
McAvan and Theologo also covered many of the team's costs. The team received $750 from the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences to compete in the national tournament. It also received small donations from private funds.
This year's team members participated in three tournaments and finished with a 6-2 record.
After tying for third place at the Washburn invitational tournament in Topeka, they tied for second place at the regional tournament at Avila College in Kansas City, Mo., and advanced to the national tournament in Des Moines.
The team was one of 64 to compete at the national tournament, where it received an outstanding new-school award.
To practice for the tournaments, the team prepared to argue both sides of a murder case. The same case was used for all competitions, but variables were added for the national tournament.
Trials took about two and a half hours, and there were two to four trials during each tournament.
McAvan said competing in mock trials was an important exercise for students planning to attend law school.
"It helps people with their public speaking especially thinking on their feet," McAvan said. "In this type of situation, if you're an attorney or a witness, you have to be very flexible because every single trial is different."

Kansan staff writer
Two weeks after the accident that fatally injured Lisa Rosel, Overland Park freshman, local authorities say they are not planning to increase monitoring of underage drinking.
Rosel was fatally injured March 31 in the 1400 block of Tennessee Street after being struck by a 1997 Mitsubishi Montero. The driver was intoxicated and had been drinking at The Crossing, 618 W. 12th St., before the accident, according to Lawrence Police reports.
Rosel and two KU students with her at the time of the accident had been drinking at Bullwinkles, 1344 Tennessee St., before Rosel was hit, according to the police report. All three were underage.
Lawrence Police Sgt. George Wheeler said he thought there was little more the police could do to deter underage drinking.
"We're always doing property checks and bar checks," he said. "And if we find violations, we send them to the ABC or arrest them."
Two minors were cited for possessing alcohol during the past week at The Crossing, according to police reports.
Wheeler said it was not unusual for that number of incidents to occur in a week, especially given the time of year. He said the number of minors in possession and public consumption of alcohol violations would increase as the temperature increased.
"You're going to see more of those because it's getting warmer," Wheeler said. "More people will be going out to bars, especially downtown, where they will want to walk around while drinking."
Chancellor Robert Hemenway said he was troubled about Rosel's death and was concerned about the level of underage drinking among KU students.
"I think I feel the same way about her death as I would about any student that was young and vibrant, and that is that it saddens me," he said. "The larger issue is whether the
University has effective policies involving underage drinking and if there is anything more we can do to prevent it."
Hemenway said he was interested in finding out what the University could do to lower the amount of underage drinking by students.
"I'm hoping we can create a task force between members of the University and members of the community to see what more can be done about the problem," he said.
Christine Tonkovich, Douglas County District Attorney, said she could not decide what action, if any, she would take against the bars until she had seen all the information from the investigation.
"That's obviously something we'll have to look into," she said. "My understanding is we probably won't, but we won't be able to make a decision until we get all the evidence."
The evidence for which the district attorney's office is waiting is in the possession of the Kansas Bureau of Investigation, she said.
Scott Teeselink, media agent for the KBI in Topeka, said the agency was investigating a number of similar cases.
"They come up from all over the state," he said. "We put them on rotation, and whichever file comes up, we do that one and send the results to whoever gave it to us."
Sheila Walker, public information director for Alcoholic Beverage Control, said cereal malt beverage licenses, which Bullwinkles and The Crossing possess, were issued by the city. The licenses allow the bars to sell 3.2 percent alcoholic beverages and mandate the bars close by midnight.
She said ABC had no jurisdiction to investigate the bars for instances of underage drinking because of the city-issued licenses.
"I sent an e-mail to both our assistant attorney general and to our enforcement department to see if we could do anything," she said, "But it looks like we can't."
Tom Devlin and Jonathan Davis, coworkers of Bullwinkles, and Shawn Schlegel, owner of The Crossing, could not be reached for comment.

Delta Force energy sways editorial board
Teaching assistant in School of Business.
1. I can strongly voice the opinions of my constituents and make changes based on their needs.
We endorse them and encourage all students to take part in the election.
A primary goal of Delta Force is to increase campus safety with an escort program. This program would create new student jobs and make students feel safer at their University. With this program, male and female pairs of students would escort others to their vehicles and to and from campus buildings at night.
Additionally, they will work for the creation of bike lanes at the University and in Lawrence. This plan was closely tied to their idea of involvement in the Lawrence community and their grassroots ideology. They wanted Senate, students and the University to work more closely with the Lawrence community.
Editor's note: The presidential and vice-presidental Student Senate candidates were interviewed or two different days for about 30 minutes by the Umliversity Daily Kansan editorial board. The board composed of a variety of students from different schools, living organizations, and ethnic back grounds in the United States and the Indianapolis ballot to decide which pair of candidates, either from Campus Cause or Delta Force, it would endorse. The Opinion page editors, Paul Eakins and Ann Primer did not vote.
With their passion about issues important to KU students, their broad view of what Student Senate can do, and their student-oriented goals, the energy of Delta Force presidential and vice-presidential candidates Emily Heath and Matt Dunbar impressed The University Daily Kansan editorial board. After an interview with Heath and Dunbar, and one with Kevin Yoder and Scott Kaliser, Campus Cause presidential and vice-presidential candidates, the board decided that Heath and Dunbar would be the most effective leaders for next year's Student Senate.

2. I don't know yet!
An investigation of the relationship between corporations and the University, and supporting micro-radio stations, such as Lawrence's KAW-FM, were important to Heath and Dunbar as well. They said they wanted to stop coalition-based, partisan politics after the election. Though they understand that ideological differences exist in Senate, it is their opinion that senators should work together instead of harboring tension and conflict.
Heath and Dunbar also stressed the importance of student involvement and said Senate needed to make great efforts to include students. Some of their ideas were to hold roving Senate meetings that would be at different campus locations each meeting, such as at Daisy Hill. They want senators to serve office hours outside of the Senate office, so that senators will be more accessible to students.
Yoder and Kaiser shared some of these ideas, such as uniting Senate and getting more students involved with roving Senate meetings. In addition, Yoder and Kaiser promoted different goals, such as a park-and-ride system and online enrollment. Though Yoder and Kaiser have more experience in Senate, the board saw the decision as a choice between the status quo and a new Senate.

ISSUE STUDENT THE UNIVERSITY OF ARKANSAS SENATE
Advisers stir concerns
Continued from page 1A
develop a campaign plan and has worked as a trouble shooter.
But Emily Heath, Delta Force candidate for student body president, said she thought Merchant was actually the one calling the shots in the campaign rather than Yoder.
Yoder denied this, saying he is the one with the final say and that Merchant only offers advice.
"I let Scott make many decisions because I trust him," Yoder said. "I wouldn't want to be the only one on this campaign making decisions."
Members of Campus Cause have raise similar concerns about Jason Fitzell's role in advising the Delta Force candidates. Some think if Heath is elected as president, students would be getting Fitzell as their leader. Fitzell ran as the Delta Force candidate for student body presiden last year.
Julie Numrich. Campus Cause candidate for the Language Arts and Sciences seat, said that because Fizell had started Delta Force last year, he obviously would be passionate about seeing his ideas through.
"He might be a little too involved." Num-rich said.
Partha Mazumdar, Delta Force candidate for a graduate seat, denied those claims, saying Heath was the undisputed leader of the coalition.
"If Emily were a man, I don't think anybody would say that Jason is running the campaign."
moore said that neither he nor Merchant were there to run the coalition or tell their candidates what to say.
"He's not the boss; Emily is the boss," Mazumdar said. "She has absolutely no problem telling Jason no. She does it all the time.
Moore said his role with Campus Cause was to work as a copy editor for press releases and to help organize the Web page, rather than to offer political advice.
"We're pretty unprofessional to be frank," Moore said. "This is put together with chewing gum and Scotch tape."
Regardless of the roles of the advisers,
their names will not appear on any ballots
Sullivan, Walden take sides
By Marc Sheforgen
msheforgen@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Student body president Scott Sullivan and vice president Mike Walden are supporting the Campus Cause coalition in this week's Student Senate elections.
"I'm in a unique position," Sullivan said. "I have nothing to gain, and I have had the opportunity to work with both coalitions."
Sullivan said that although he thought positively of Delta Force candidates, he supported Campus Cause because the coalition covered the issues that best represented student needs and concerns. He also said Campus Cause offered the best plans to implement those issues.
"Campus Cause has the leadership and experience to make good things happen next year," Sullivan said. "That's why I've pledged my support."
Walden said he did not think that supporting one coalition compromised his role as acting vice president.
"I feel as if I would be remiss in my duties if I didn't get out and support the group with, in my opinion, the best people and best ideas," he said.
But Seth Hoffman, Delta Force candidate for a Liberal Arts and Sciences seat, said the support of the acting student leaders was hypocritical.
"It's disturbing in the sense that this whole year, Scott (Sullivan) has preached about how divisiveness has to end, and yet, as soon as the time comes, he jumps on board with one of the coalitions," Hoffman said.
Hoffman said he was disappointed with Sullivan and Walden for drawing partisan lines. He said he would not want them or others involved with advising the Campus Cause campaign to support his coalition.
"You've got (Andy) Obermueller, who was forced to resign from the Kansan and two people who broke the rules last year. It's kind of an all-star lineup." Hoffman said.
Hoffman was referring to fines that Sullivan and Walden paid for violating elections codes after last year's elections.
Dion Jones, Campus Cause candidate for a nontraditional seat, said there were no rules preventing Sullivan and Walden from supporting the coalition of their choice and as long as campaigning was kept from the Student Senate office, he saw no problem with it.
Standing as political student organization may offer advantage
By Marc Sheforgen
msheforgen @kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Delta Force recognition questioned
Delta Force was established as a coalition to run against Unite in the 1997 Student Senate elections. When Jason Fizell failed to win the student body presidential position, he decided to continue Delta Force as a student activist organization.
"It basically was a selfish thing." Fizell said. "I lost in my election, and I wanted to change things still, so we kept Delta Force around."
Since then, Fizell said the organization had been working to make campus better by backing issues it deemed important throughout the year.
Acting both as a political coalition and
a student organization has allowed Delta Force to gain name recognition all year, rather than just during campaign season.
Members of the Campus Cause coalition have said that this was an unfair advantage.
"When did their campaign begin and their role as a student activist organization end?" asked R.J. Woodring, Campus Cause candidate for a Nunemaker seat. "For all we know, their campaign started in August."
Dion Jones, Campus Cause candidate for a nontraditional seat, said this year's Delta Force senators had taken issues that they supported in Senate and turned those issues into campaign issues. Jones said that when Senate made a decision about an issue, it should not be claimed as part of one coalition's platform.
He said there were bills sponsored by Delta Force members that he had voted in favor of during a Student Senate meeting.
"How is that a Delta Force issue?" he asked.
LIFE
Some Campus Cause members also have said that because the Delta Force name continues after elections, it contributes to division in Senate.
Fizell said the division was not one sided. He said that just because Delta Force senators have a name attached to their ideology does not mean that the senators elected with the other coalition are not just as adamant about sticking with the people they campaigned with during the spring.
Marlon Marshall, Campus Cause candidate for an engineering seat, said both sides contribute to Senate division and that it had to stop.
"Whoever gets elected this week should take off their buttons and work together as a whole because we are student senators," he said.
Couple runs for Student Senate together
Melissa Ngo
Kansan staff writer
David and Heather Stras, married for about a year, attend the University of Kansas together and both are running with the Campus Cause coalition for graduate senator seats in the Student Senate elections.
David Stras has attended the University for six years. After completing his undergraduate degree in economics and political science, he began law school. That was when he got involved with Student Senate.
"As an undergraduate, I was involved with other activities," he said. "I got involved with Senate because it's an important body that does a lot for students."
David Stras has been a graduate senator for two years. He is the chairman of Legal Services for Students and has worked to allow the group to advise students in lawsuits against the University.

been telling us that things like online enrollment would happen," she said. "I want to work to move the University forward on these promises."
Heather Stras said she saw Senate as a venue for change.
"I had seen what David had been able to accomplish as a senator, and I saw it as an opportunity to become involved," she said.
Another reason Heather Stras is joining
is to spend more time with her husband.
David Stras said he had chosen to run with the Campus Cause coalition because he agreed with its issues.
"We're working on problems that the whole student body has," he said.
Heather Stras said she also joined the coalition because of its platform.
"The issues, like better parking, are also important for graduate students," she said.
The two have not yet argued about Senate issues.
"She's formed her own opinions, but we don't have any glaring ideological differences," David Stras said.
Heather Stras said that might change.
"If I get elected, then it's possible we'll differ on some issues when we both go to the meetings," she said.

Axtell joins ranks as Jayhawk
By Tommy Gallagher
tgallagher@kansan.com
Kansas sootwriter
Former Texas basketball guard Luke Axtell answered no questions about his past, but he seemed enthusiastic about where he would spend his future.
Axtell, a 6-foot 9 player from the Longhorns, said yesterday in a teleconference he had signed the transfer papers that officially made him a Kansas scholarship basketball player. He only needed to drop the papers in the mailbox.
"I knew so much about the Kansas basketball program that, coming out, I knew that's where I would be transferring." Axtell said. "I figured that if I could go to Kansas, that's where I'd want to go. It wasn't a done deal, but they were definitely the favorite."
PARKS
Axtell averaged 13.3 points and 4.3 rebounds for the Longhorns last season, hitting 39.9 percent of his shot attempts from three-point range. Though he will provide the Jayhawks with a sharpshooter, his defense proved to be far from adequate last season.
Axtell said he wanted more discipline in his basketball game, not the run-and-gun style he had played in his freshman season at Texas.
"The style at Texas was something that I had to adapt to," Axtell said. "I'm going from one extreme to the other I guess. I
was definitely looking for more structure on the court."
Axtell will have one year to improve his game before Jayhawk fans see him play in Allen Field House.
He will have to sit out one year and lose one year of eligibility to comply with NCAA transfer rules. Axell said that he would appeal to the NCAA to retain the lost
year,but added that the chances of that happening were slim at best.
As it is, he would be eligible to play at Kansas in 1999 as a junior.
Axtell said sitting out for one season would be worth it.
"Nothing seems tough after what we've been through down here," Axtell said. "But I just can't wait to play. I think this is a great opportunity for me, so I'm not looking at it as a setback at all."
Axtell, who will enroll at Kansas for the fall semester, said he loved Lawrence when he made an official visit to Kansas two weeks ago.
Axtell, whose March 17 suspension by
former Texas coach Tom Penders triggered controversy throughout the program, said he would wait to see who the school hired as its new coach before he made any plans to transfer.
The Longhorns hired former Clemson coach Rick Barnes as their new coach Sunday, so Axell decided to become a Jayhawk rather than stay.
Axtell had been contacted by several schools since he was granted a transfer release from Texas. Colleges that competed for him included Kansas, Texas Tech, UCLA and Michigan, among others.
If the Jayhawks revoke the one-year scholarship granted to former walk-on guard Terry Nooner last season, they would have only one scholarship left.
Marlon London, a 6foot-3 shooting guard from St. Joseph's High School in Chicago, is expected to take that scholarship if he signs with Kansas this week. London will visit Kansas on Thursday.
For Axtell, this off-season changed everything.
Axtell made an oral commitment to play for Texas even before his junior season at Westlake High School in Austin, Texas. But the hometown hero soon became a scapegoat.
Axtell was suspended by Penders for missing study halls and tutoring sessions. Then Axtell's grades were faxed by assistant coach Eddie Oran from the Texas basketball office to an Austin radio station.
But the Axtell's family attorney, Sherry Rasmus of Austin said the judge made false
Rasmus of Austin, said the grades were false. Rasmus said Axell preferred to put the fasco behind him and look ahead.
"Luke was concerned about being blamed for everything by the local media for what happened at Texas," Rasmus said. "But he just wants to make it through the ordeal and make the most of a new opportunity at Kansas. He really loved his visit."
Axtell's story parallels that of Kansas forward Lester Farl.
Axtell committed to his hometown school and had a fallout with his coach during his freshmen season, like Earl. And both coaches eventually were forced to resign under pressure as each player transferred to Kansas.
Former players who had a fallout with their coaches before transferring to Kansas in the 190s also include Rick Calloway, Rex Walters and Jerod Haase.

Team looks 'fowl' at practice, Allen says
After 'Hawks scrimmage coaches add new plays that take time to learn
Kansan sportswriter
By Kevin C. Wilson Kansan sportswriter
Kansas coach Terry Allen said the Jayhawks' practice yesterday resembled a scene most commonly seen on a farm.
"We were running around like chickens with their heads cut off," Allen said. "Being the practice after a scrimmage, we were adding a whole bunch of new stuff."
24
Saturday was the Jayhawks' first scrimage of the spring practice session, and Allen said that yesterday's practice was more of a mental process, walking through new plays and learning assignments, than a physical one.
One physical aspect of the Jayhawks practice was pleasing to Allen and an improvement from Saturday's scrimmage—the pass catching of the wide receivers.
"The wind wasn't blowing 8 mph so that makes a big difference." Allen said.
Other news and notes from the last week of spring football:
Senior linebacker Lamar Sharpe has left the Kansas football team. Sharpe transferred to Youngstown State, a powerhouse in Division 1-AA, after earning three letters for the Jayhawks.
"He's a big strong kid," Allen said. "Right now, we don't have a guy that can bang in there for a yard or two. He can do those things for us."
Senior Dustin Curry, who was used at fullback last season, was switched to tailback. The six foot, 205-pound Waverly native will provide power and girth that has been lacking in the backfield, Allen said.
Allen said that when he approached Curry about making the change he was more than eager to give it a try.
Above: Coach Terry Allen walks among the team while his players stretch before practice. Right: Two linemen go head-to-head during practice at Memorial Stadium. Yesterday was the first full-tackle practice for the Jayhawks. Photos by Steve Puppe/KANSAN
Redshirt freshman Tyler Evans is now the Jayhawks third-string quarterback. Allen would not reveal his reserve earlier in spring practice.

Transfer update: Offensive guard John Oddonetto and defensive back Muhammad Abdul-Rahim are impressing the Jayhawks coaching staff during spring practice. Allen said both the junior college transfers were competing for starting positions.
Wilhelm showing improvement since return
By John Blakoly Wilson
Kansan sportswriter
In a March 22 game against Iowa State, Wilhelm ran into the elbow of a base runner while diving for a wild throw. Wilhelm said he could hardly bear to attend the four games the injury forced him to miss.
Kansas third baseman Sparky Wilhelm owes a 7-for-12 weekend at the plate to a fractured cheek bone.
Wilhelm, a junior, was a career. .236 hitter coming into the season. He has raised his season batting average from .241 to .320 since returning from the injury, hitting .429 during that streak.
"In those games I sat out, I missed baseball more than anything," he said. "It bothered me, and I made a promise to myself to play as hard as I could the rest of the year."
Coach Bobby Randall said Wilhelm
finally was playing to his potential.
"It's been a process of constant work for Sparky," Randall said. "He's swinging the bat better than I've ever seen from him before."
Wilhelm attended Shawnee Heights High School in Topeka, where he built an impressive list of athletic honors. He was all-state in baseball and football as a senior, and he helped lead both programs to state championships while
being voted 1995 City Defensive Player of the Year in basketball.
Wilhelm earned Phillips 66 Academic All-Big Eight honors as a freshman with limited action on the field. He started 18 games at first and third base, but hit just 179.
Playing time increased last season,
when Wilhelm started 35 times, mostly

Despite suspect defense, Axell will give the Jayhawks a pure shooter and, in what appeared to be a down year for Kansas basketball recruiting, Axell should ease the pain of barely missing out on a number of big-name recruits.
his freshman season, he was able to shoot over smaller defenders. A natural scorer with good mobility, Axtell could easily move over to small forward — nicely filling the void left by Kansas City native JaRon Rush's decision to move west.
However, there is always room to improve. In many games, Axtell was prone to a poor shot selection and lapses in defense.
Although he made nearly 40 percent of his three-point attempts, his ratio could have been much better. Axtell often took shots while covered by multiple defenders and seemed to ignore open teammates, preferring to shoot instead.
But remember, Axtell was just a true freshman. Paul Pierce's shot selection wasn't much different three years ago—and we all know how he turned out.
Bad shots and and lazy defense don't really fly down at Allen Field House and, fortunately, both problems are correctable. When it comes to turning guys into solid, hard-working, players, Coach Roy is as good as they come.
However, it is the off the court stuff that is cause for concern. The Axell circle began March 17 when Penders suspended his freshman guard for academic reasons. Axelt responded, threatening to leave Texas and accusing Penders — who in 10 years at Texas never received a formal complaint from a player — of verbal abuse. After Axell's progress report was released on a local radio station, a violation of the Buckley Amendment, a federal privacy law for students, Penders' assistant Eddie Oran took responsibility.
So who's to blame?
Depends on who you talk to in Austin.
Some will say Penders was a sloppy coach who ran a sloppy team. Yeah, he won, but his team's never reached the success his talent demanded. He did a lot for the basketball program, but many locals knew that if Texas wanted to reach the Final Four it was going to be without Penders. Axtell was just the spark plug for the inevitable.
They will say Axtell was a prima donna. That his mother, Mollie, didn't get along with Penders. That he didn't go to his tutoring sessions and was soft on the court. And once he was suspended, he — and who ever would join him — decided to go after Penders' head.
Others will tell a different story.
So, back to the question, who's to blame?
In this case, probably everyone.
The concern for Kansas is which version is more accurate.
If Penders was abusive and behind the release of Axtell's grades, then the Jayhawks have acquired a good, potentially great player, who was betrayed by the stupidity and shortsightedness of a poor coaching staff.
But, if Axelt is a head case, a prototype of the 90s me-first athlete, Kansas may have made a poor decision. Plus, if Axelt can't stay academically eligible at Texas, there's no guarantee his grades will improve when he arrives in Lawrence.
Only time will tell with Axtell.
One thing is for sure, Coach Roy won't be out of a job because Luke Axell isn't getting his way.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (April 14)
Do great things this year with help from your friends. A secret leads to love in May. Save every spare cent in June and July. Go on an excursion in September. Take the trip of a lifetime in January. Friends come through in March. Relay on an older person who knows in April.
Aries: Today is a 6.
Is there anything you are supposed to have done? It may not be due until tomorrow, but that still does not give you much time. Go shopping for gifts in the morning.
Taurus: Today is a 7.
Not enough money? No problem. If you want to go out to lunch but cannot afford the restaurants, take a picnic in the park with food brought from home.
Gemini: Today is a 4.
It would be a mistake to assume you are smarter than a Pisces. You are more verbal. Pisces is the sign of the genius. You should always listen with respect to Pisceans
Cancer: Today is an 8.
You may be tempted to try something new. With support from a friend this morning, push yourself into a new lifestyle. Your adventure may be mental rather than physical.
Leo: Today is a 4.
If you are going to make a deal concerning your work, do it this morning. Later this afternoon, conditions change, and things are more likely to go wrong.
It looks as if the spotlight is on you. Let everybody know what needs to be done. If there are big decisions pending, urge people to choose quickly. The earlier the better.
Libra: Today is a 3.
Sagittarius: Today is a 3.
You are busy. Not only are there difficult chores on your agenda but there also is a mild state of confusion. Do not quit your job, but you could start looking for a better one.
Scorpio; Today is a 9.
It does not get much better than this. If you have been thinking about getting married, do not wait a moment longer. Make or renew the commitment.
Capricorn: Today is an 8.
You could spend this day at home in bed. If you have any sick time, it is not a bad idea to use it. If you are not really sick, call it preventative medicine.
Aquarius: Today is a 5.
Pisces: Today is an 8.
Not only are you in love, but you also are quite imaginai native. Make a creative suggestion early this morning. By the afternoon, you will feel a bit more inhibited.
It is a good time to buy real estate, if you can scrape together the down payment. Be available for a friend whose dreams seem to be falling apart.
P
Two people standing together.
R
Your intuition is excellent this morning. Later in the day, complexities arise, making the game more interesting. Focus on completion tonight and for the next few weeks.

Seattle Mariners fire failing pitching coach
SEATLEY — The Seattle Mariners, who have not had a save from their bullpen this season, fired pitching coach Nardi Contrares yesterday.
SPORTS BRIEFS AND SCORES
He was replaced by Stan Williams, the team's advance scout. Williams is a former pitching coach with the Cincinnati Reds and New York Yankees.
SEATTLE
MARINERS
The American League West champions last year, the Mariners are 3-8 this season, matching their worst start ever.
公正
Note: Horoscopes have no basis in scientific fact and should be read for entertainment purposes only.
The Mariners were swept by the Boston Red Sox in a three-game series that ended Sunday. In two of those games, the Mariners led going into the ninth inning, but their relievers failed to hold on.
"I felt it was time to try a different approach," manager Lou Piniella said of the reason for the coaching switch.
Williams, 61, spent the 1997 season as a scout with the Yankees. He spent four previous seasons as Piniella's pitching coach, with the Yankees in 1987-88 and with the Reds in 1990-91.
"Our pitchers have the ability to be successful at this level, but we weren't getting the results we needed. I've worked with Stan before and had good success."
"Stan is familiar with our staff and will be able to step right in and go to work." Woody Woodward, the club's vice president of baseball operations, said.
"We believe it was time to make a change in an effort to improve our pitching," he said.

TOKYO — Jan-Michael Gambill is a player on the rise, and David Wheaton is a player in decline — their performances on Monday in the Japan Open reflected their situations.
The 20-year-old Gambill, who has vaulted from 176th at the end of last year to 81st in the ATP Tour rankings, beat italy's Stefano Pescosolido 6-3, 6-2 in a first-round match.
Gambill needed only one hour to win on a windy day with intermittent rain that delayed play on outside courts for more than four hours.

His victories this year include one against Andre Assagi.
Also among the top seeds are Michael Chang, Tim Hemman, Thomas Johansson, Vincent Spadea, Martin Damm and Gianluca Pozi.
Wheaton, who ranked 44th at the end of 1995 but has been plagued since injuries and slipped to 146th in 1997, had to serve at less than full strength because of an ailing elbow and lost 6-3, 3-6, 6-3 to fellow American David Diluc.
Gambill, seeded 11th, was the only men's seed in action on opening day. The top eight seeds had first-round
"It's going to take three or four weeks of rest before I can serve hard again," said Wheaton, who had a crucial service break in the final set's eighth game.

"He's been bothered by
Classy colt injured, out of the running
something in his last couple of races, and now we know what it was," co-owner Will Farish said yes terday. "He's going to have arthroscopic surgery on the left front ankle."

LEXINGTON, Ky. — Lil's Lad is out
Lil's Lad led through moderate fractions but was unable to respond when Halory Hunter passed him.
The chip was discovered in an X-ray Sunday, one day after the classy coil with a world of speed placed second behind Halary Hunter in the Blue Grass Stakes at Keeneland.
"I'm sorry that he's going to miss the Derby, but we had no other choice," Farish, board chairman of Churchill Downs, told The Associated Press from Delray, Fla. "It's going to be early summer or fall before he comes back to racing. He's a talented colt."
Lil's Lad won his first three starts but kept bearing out in the recent Florida Derby. He was disqualified and placed second for bumping Cape Town, who was made the winner.
Howard said no X-rays were taken after that race. He suspected trouble after watching Saturday's race.
"It was pinching him a little bit in the stress of a race," Howard said yesterday. "You could tell something was wrong."

Softball to double up on WSU

The Kansas softball team takes on the Wichita State Shockers in a rematch today at 3 and 5 p.m. at Jayhawk Field.
Kansan Sportswriter
Two weeks ago in Wichita, the two teams split a doubleheader, which broke the Jayhawks' fourgame winning streak against the Shockers.
Pitcher Jessi Kowal gave up three hits and one unearned run in the loss against Wichita State. The Shockers took advantage of a Kansas error in the bottom of the
seventh inning and scraped out a run, winning 1-0.
Kansas won the second game against the Shockers with five players getting hits, including a 2-for-3 performance by left fielder Sara Holland. Pitcher Chrisy McPhail picked up the 4-1 win, which improved her record to 10-10.
The Jayhawks have split eight of 13 doubleheaders this season and have been swept by No. 1 Arizona. No. 12 Stanford and No. 5 Oklahoma.
After splitting a doubleheader with Oklahoma State and being swept by Oklahoma last weekend.
the jayhawks are 22:27 overall and 6-6 in the Big 12 Conference. Kansas is tied with Texas Tech for fifth in the league.
The Jayhawks travel to Nebraska to play a doubleheader against Creighton tomorrow because their scheduled doubleheader was rained out March 31.
■ Holland increased her team-leading batting average against Big 12 teams to .415 and has stolen nine bases in nine attempts.
Second baseman Katie Malone batted .300 for the weekend, hitting in three of four games against Oklahoma and Oklahoma State.

Texas coach lays down law
AUSTIN, Texas — Before Rick Barnes attended his introductory news conference as the new basketball coach at Texas, he met with a disgruntled star player who is transferring and set out a
The Associated Press
new set of rules to a divided team.
It was not the typical beginning for a new coach.
But the former Clemson coach left no doubt that he was ready to take control of a team plagued by a player revolt that ultimately led to the resignation of Tom Penders, the coach with the most wins in Texas history.
Barnes: Takes charge of basket-ball team.
DANIEL KIRKMAN
In a team meeting before being introduced as coach, Barnes imposed rules upon the Longhorns, including no facial hair, no earrings, no hats in buildings and no headphones on campus. The rules are effective immediately.
If anyone is late to a team meeting or workout, the entire team will run.
There will be mandatory team breakfasts throughout the season every day, not just game days.
"I was scared when he first started talking," said junior co-captain Chico Vazquez, a Penders supporter. "He started laying down all these rules. But discipline is what this team needs."
Barnes said he met yesterday with Luke Axtell, a key figure in the player revolt last month. Axtell told Barnes he was committed to transferring to Kansas.
"I respect Luke's decision," Barnes said.
barnes said his first goal at Texas was to build trust among the players. He said he would wait to evaluate the Longhorns' talent before deciding if the team would continue to run and play uptempo or change to a half-court game.
Four players, including Axtell, went to athletics director DeLoss Dodds on March 8 to complain about playing for Penders, starting a month of controversy that ultimately led to the coach's April 2 resignation.
Barres said he talked to Penders before deciding whether to take the Texan job.
Barnes' intensity was evident yesterday.
"When I'm on the court with the players, we have a job to do, and I'll be hard on them. But off the court we're going to have fun."
"I'm extremely competitive." Barnes said.
Axtell's attorney, Sherry Rasmus of Austin, said Axtell's decision to transfer was based, in part, on a possible backlash from Texas fans regarding a fire storm that began when the freshman was suspended by Penders March 17 for academic reasons.
Axtell fired back, saying he would leave Texas because Penders verbally abused him. Then, Penders assistant Eddie Oran took responsibility for releasing Axtell's grades to a radio station.
After a two-week investigation into the grade release, Penders resigned. Rasmus said Axtell and his family would not seek legal action against Texas about the grade matter because school officials had been cooperative since the incident.
She said Dodds already had requested the Big 12 waive a rule that would require Axell to lose a year of eligibility as a result of his transfer.
If the waiver is granted — a decision is likely to come in May — Axtell still would have to sit out next year but would be granted a fifth year of eligibility.
FOXBORO, Mass. — The board hanging in the New England Patriots draft headquarters lists hundreds of top college players. But there is one glaring omission.
That is because some don't think Randy Moss is nearly as good a person as he is a wide receiver.
The Associated Press
"We've had discussion, and Randy Macy is not on our draft board," Boby Grier, the Patriots vice president for player personnel, said yesterday. "Quite a few players are off
HARVARD
our board because of the character issue."
The Patriots' primary need in next weekend's draft is a running back to replace Curtis Martin, who signed with the New York Jets. And unless they trade to improve on their first pick, the 18th, Moss probably would not be available anyway.
He has a rare combination — size, speed, good hands and timing — that made him an outstanding receiver. He has had a less-desirable combination of off-field problems.
Adding a wide receiver, though, is one of their priorities, and Moss might be the best to come out of college this year.
Notre Dame revoked his scholarship after he was charged with attacking a student at his high school. He went to Florida State, where he was kicked off the team for violating probation by smoking marijuana.
He then moved to Marshall, where he had 29 touchdowns in leading the team to the 1996 Division I-A national title. And last season, the school's first in Division I-A, he caught 96 passes for 25 touchdowns and 1,820 yards.
The Patriots already stumbled once with a draft choice who had a troubled past. They took Nebraska defensive lineman Christian Peter in the fifth round in 1996, then relinquished their rights to him three days later.
Peter has pleaded no contest to third-degree assault of a former Miss Nebraska and to disturbing the peace in an incident in which he was charged with grabbing a woman by the neck. He played last season for the New York Giants.
On May 4, running back and kick returner Dave Meggett faces a court date in Toronto on charges of sexual assault and robbery.
Patriots coach Pete Carroll continued his policy yesterday of not commenting about Meggett's future with the team.
Chicago Bears coach Dave Wannsteen, who has the fifth pick, said Moss might be one of the first five players taken. New Orleans coach Mike Ditka said he would consider Moss if the receiver was available. But Grier made it clear that, when it comes to some players whose character the team is uncomfortable with, the Patriots don't reduce the grade those people receive on the team's draft board.
"We don't move them down," Grier said.
"We move them off."

Tyson may get back in ring yet
The Associated Press
LAS VEGAS — Mike Tyson could return to the ring in November if Nevada boxing officials give him back the license they revoked for biting Evaender Hollyfield's ears, an
adviser to
Tyson said
Tyson said.
Jeff Wald, who has been advising the former heavyweight champion since his split with promoter Don King, said a November date probably would be the earliest Tyson could fight, again
Tyson: Former champion could reapply for license.
PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES MMA
because of time needed to train and put together a fight.
Tyson can apply for reinstagram July 9, the one year anniversary of his license being revoked by the Nevada State Athletic Commission for bitting Holyfield in the third round of their June 28 heavyweight title fight.
Wald said no decision had been
"There's been no decisions," Wald said yesterday. "We're concentrating on getting his life in order now. After that we'll decide on his boxing life."
made about whether Tyson would reapply for his license immediately. He said it might be late August or early September before Tyson asks for his license back.
Nevada boxing officials say they have heard nothing from Tyson or his new advisers on a possible bid for his boxing license. If Tyson is rejected by the commission, he will have to wait another year before reapplying.
With less than three months before Tyson has a chance to get his license back, commission members say they have made no decisions on his return and have not been lobbied by anyone.
"If it weren't for phone calls from the press, you wouldn't even know this thing was happening," said James Nave, a commission member. "Not one boxing person or one hotel has talked to me about this, and July is not far away."
Tyson has been training in a Las Vegas gym while his new advisers try to chat his boxing future.
Eric Lindros returns to ice post-injury
The Associated Press
BUFFALO, N.Y. — After 18 games sidelined by a concussion, Flyers captain Eric Lindros did not waste any time yesterday night letting the Buffalo Sabres know he
was back in the lineup
Looking strong from the opening shift, Lindros was a
NHL
force in keeping the Sabres from gaining possession of the puck in its zone for the first several minutes of the first period.
It was what he had been waiting for since suffering a concussion March 7 after a hit by Darius Kasparitis of the Pittsburgh Penguins.
"Anytime you've been away from the game as long as I have and it's something you grew up doing and something you love to do and it's been taken away ... yeah, there's a lot of excitement built up inside me," Lindros said after a practice skate earlier yesterday at Marine Midland Arena.
Lindros shook off the effects of his injury about 10 days ago — in plenty of time to get in top shape for the playoffs, he said.
I felt really strong," he said. "I wasn't having any symptoms, and after hard skates, I wasn't getting the dizziness and the headaches."
Randall says player hits, swings better
Continued from page 1B
at third base. He raised his season batting average to .265 and filled in at times as a utility player all over the infield and outfield.
Wilhelm has been the everyday third baseman this season, and his recent hot streak raised him to fifth in the batting order in the Jayahawk's game Sunday against Texas Tech.
Along with improved performance at the plate, Wilhelm said he tried to be a leader on the diamond to propel the team through the challenging Big 12 Conference schedule.
"I've got some confidence now, and I'm trying to be somebody who can get the guys rolling." Wilhelm said. "We're all playing our hearts out; I just hope good things start happening."
Kansas plays hosts to ninthranked Wichita State (27-3) at 7 tonight.
Kansas baseball announced yesterday that Lincoln (Neb.) Northeast High School's Justin Hertzel signed a national letter of intent to play for the Jayhawks.
Hertzel, a catcher, was an honorable mention all-state selection after hitting .407 as a junior. A three-year letter-winner in baseball and football, he holds Northeast High's single-season records for hits (35) and runs scored (26).
"Justin is an excellent student and an excellent athlete," Randall said. "He has had a great athletic career at Northeast High School in both baseball and football. We certainly expect him to be a good player in our program."

Mark O'Meara proud of long-awaited victory
The Associated Press
AUGUSTA, Ga. — Pride is an important part of the complex make-up of Mark O'Meara, a gentle man who nevertheless gets a glimmer of determination in his eyes if he feels he is being ignored.
Nowhere was that pride more evident than when he stood tall Sunday on the 18th green at Augusta National Golf Club with his arms raised after his 20-foot winning putt in the Masters.
Nowhere was the pride of the new Masters champion tested more severely than 14 months ago when O'Meara won at Pebble Beach and Torrey Pines in consecutive weeks. But the second win came on the same day Tiger Woods was winning
The Masters
in Thailand against a weak field.
Still, it was the victory half a world away by Woods that received all the attention — such was the level of Tigernamia at the time.
O'Meara and Woods both are represented by International Management Group, and the super agency has encouraged their friendship, hoping the 41-year-old O'Meara could teach the 22-year-old Woods a thing or two.
That friendship has blossomed because of a genuine affection, but it did not stop O'Meara from bristling when he thought the golf
O'Meara, who lives near Woods in Orlando, Fla., knows what his neighbor has brought to golf but offers a word of caution.
world was spending too much time talking about Woods and not fully appreciating other players.
"He has been a blessing for the game," O'Meara said. "But I would hope that the people he brings to the game can appreciate the game of self."
Woods' talent, his early success on the tour and at the times unreasonable expectations for his future by the public have charged the competitive juices of a slew of young players such as David Duval, the runner-up at the Masters; Jim Furky, who finished fourth; and Justin Leonard, who was eighth.
But Woods also has rekindled the
competitive fire in some players who have been around awhile, such as Fred Couples, who tied Dval for second and perhaps even 58-year-old Jack Nicklaus, who tied for sixth.
Certainly, it is true in the case of O'Meara.
"I love competition," he said. "I love feeling that little bit of tingling going on inside."
By every yardstick but one — winning a major championship — O'Meara has had a successful career. After Sunday, he had 15 PGA Tour victories, six more wins overseas and, with more than $9 million, was fourth on the career PGA Tour money list.
Yet his 0-for-56 record in major championships had left a "can't win the big one" aura. O'Meara
always said the label did not bother him — but it did.
"Have I been disappointed that I haven't won a major championship to this point?" O'Meara asked after he finished with a 67 for a 9-under 279, defeating Couples and Duval by one stroke.
"Yes, a little bit," he said. "But I can't demean myself or put myself down. I think I've had a wonderful career."
It has been a wonderful career, but now it is even a little better. Scratch O'Meara's name off that dubious list of great players who have never won a major.
Among the veterans, that leaves Colin Montgomerie as the most prominent player without a major championship trophy in his den.
The victory by O'Meara meant
that the last 14 majors have been won by 14 different people. Ten of those 14 winners won a major for the first — and so far only — time.

Milk mustache does a student body good
By Chris Horton
chorton @kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Free T-shirts and the chance to appear in Rolling Stone magazine were enough to lure University of Kansas students to wear milk
Jesse McGraw, Olathe senior, shows his milk mustache at the contest for a milk model. Students lined up yesterday at the Kansas Union for a chance to get their photo in Rolling Stone as part of the milk campaign. Photo by Holly Groshong/KANSAN
mustaches for photographs, but it may not increase their milk consumption.
MILK
your mustache?
The milk mustache campaign titled "Milk—where's your mustache?" came yesterday to the Kansas Union. The campaign representatives provided students with mustache-inducing milkshakes for photographs that will be entered in a national collegiate competition, said Carey Stuckey, campaign representative.
"We've seen a lot of funny milk mustaches," Stuckey said. "It's been a fun afternoon."
The campaign is touring about 100 colleges and universities. Photographs are taken of students posing with milk on their upper lips in a style similar to the national milk
advertisements featuring celebrities, she said. One student will be selected to appear in a milk advertisement that will run in an issue of Rolling Stone, Stuckey said.
Robyn Stuewe, registered, licensed dietitian at Midland Dairy Council in Overland Park. "There is a calcium crisis on college campuses," Stuewe said. "Four of five collegeage women do not get enough calcium, and for men, it's one out of two."
Stuewe said young adults needed 1,000 mil-
"I think the combination of the glitz of a photo shoot and the serious health message work well together," she said.
That health message was delivered by
Brvan
ligramse per day to supplement bone growth. That amount of calcium could be obtained in three servings of milk or dairy products, she said.

"They should drink more milk because it's good for strong bones." he said
McCloskey said he thought University students did not drink enough milk.

Barker composed a piece called Jayhawk Fantasy, based on Kansas songs and melodies — including I'm a Jayhawk, Stand Up and Cheer, Home on the Range and Crimson and the Blue. Barker also wrote the music for the television show I Dream of Jeannie. Barker and the band will perform the song at the Spring Concert at 7:30 tonight in the Lied Center.

Movie raid invades rural farm
By Tamara Miller
Kansan staff writer
So when Hauber, a 1976 University of Kansas graduate, received a phone call from a movie production studio wanting to use her farm for a movie scene, she thought it was a prank.
However, the producers of Ride with the Devil have relied on local residents' rural expertise for their movie, said William Hendley, publicist for Maple Wood Productions in Kansas City, Mo.
Hendley said scenes were shot Friday in Leavenworth County and about 20 different locations were selected across Kansas to be used in the film.
Holywood movie producers normally do not contact Karby Hauber
"Every location is a specific scenario," he said.
Ride with the Devil will star Skeet
Uhrich and Jewel and will be released in the summer of 1999. Hendley said.
The film, based on "Woe to Live On," a book by Daniel Woodrell, is a coming-of-age story about the Kansas-Missouri border war during the Civil War.
Hauber's farm is being used to shoot a scene about Quantrill's Raid. The production company wanted to build a farmhouse on the land because it was a tall grass prairie, Hauber said.
"They have been working on this for the past three weeks solid," she said.
"The house is really just a facade supported by telephone poles. If you look at it from the front, you'd think it was real," she said.
Hauber's three children are trying out to be extras in the film. She said although she had a copy of the script, she had not watched any of the filming being done on her farm.
"It's really fun to see them focus on
an era and a time that doesn't usually get much national attention." she said.
The set is being used to film a scene where a farmhouse is burned down by a group of soldiers, called the Bushwhackers, from Missouri, said Steve Jansen, director of the Watkins Community Museum of History, 1047 Massachusetts St., and a resource for Woodrell's book.
"It was a culmination of an on-again, off-again rivalry between the Jayhawkers, who were abolitionists, and the Bushwhackers, who were pro-slavery," Jansen said.
George McCleary, associate professor of geography, collaborated in writing a brochure about the raid called "Quantrill's Raid: The Lawrence Massacre."
Ten percent of Lawrence's population died during the battle, and many widows and orphaned children left after the raid, McCleary said.

Eat at Garland's
WE DON'T HAVE
AN ATTITUDE...
Soul food sticks to the heart
Man encourages communication by mastication has for 10 years
By Morc Sheforgen msheforgen@kansan.com

Kansan staff writer
Garland's got greens tonight, and pork steak smothered with thick gravy, and whipped potatoes with just enough pepper, and soft, hot biscuits, and fried green beans, and corn, and ham hocks, and sticky peach cobbler.
Grab a plate, take a seat over there with the rest of the group next to Paul Pierce.
What's on TV?
Where's Garland?
Settled in his chair, smiling, welcoming hungry students, his "sons," one after another, into his home. Into his life. They're here to fill their bellies and soak up the wisdom and generosity of one of Lawrence's unknown greats.
For 10 years Garland Hall has fed scores of students, athletes and just plain kids. They are his surrogate sons, mostly KU students. They roll through his house at 12th and Connecticut from 3:30 p.m. to midnight most Sundays—and they'me hungry.
Cooking for as many as 20 young men has become a Sunday tradition for Garland, a social worker and part-time Reverend.
It's a tradition that may be coming to an end, however, the casualty of a new youth that doesn't seem to care.
High-profile KU basketball players, the likes of Adonis Jordan, Jacque Vaughn, Paul Pierce and Billy Thomas are, or have been, regulars at "G."s.
He does love basketball. to be sure
But Garland doesn't cook to rub elbows with fame
And yeah, there have been players who claimed Garland as family, allowing him to go to games, home and away. All "Rev," "G," "Garland," has to do is come through with the grub.
But this year, Garland didn't go to any basketball games. Too busy. He kept on cooking though.
Garland is just old fashioned. He believes in a community raising its young people.
For Garland, it's not about high-fiving ball players or scoring tickets. He feeds many non-athletes as well.
"Back when I was growing up, the whole
neighborhood raised you," he says.
He wants to be a mentor, a provider for young men who are away from home. He wants to be a father figure.
Gartland Hall and longtime friend Pierre Lisk, a Sierra Leone track and field runner for four years, share a laugh before a Sunday night dinner. Lisk has been eaten with Hall for more than five years.

Garland, 43, was raised in Coffeyville by his maternal grandparents. He didn't meet his own father until age 15.
"We learn from experience," Garland says. "I guess what my father taught me, because he wasn't there a lot of the time for me when I was growing up, is that I do want to be there for my kids."
Garland and his wife have raised two daughters, and they're not the only ones he's there for. He has dozens of sons as well. Kids of all ethnic backgrounds are welcomed in this father figure's home.
Jose Cornejo has worked with Garland for seven years as a social worker at the Bert Nash Community Mental Health Center. He said that Garland wants these young men to
And it is nice to have someone there for you. Someone who Macolom Nash, KU basketball player from 1990-92, calls "a father away from home."
"I've always believed that people need someone to help them along the way, and it's nice to be there for somebody when they're going through college," he says.

Effects of new polling sites yet to be seen
By Melissa Nao
Kansan staff writer
By Melissa Ngo
www.kent.edu
Although the weather and living organizations continue to affect voter turnout, debate surrounds whether new residence hall polling sites will increase the number of voters.
During the last five years, between 14 and 17 percent of University of Kansas students have voted in Student Senate elections.
Keeping the sites will be a referendum issue that students can vote for during Student Senate elections today and tomorrow.
"Freshmen vote the most, and they live in the residence halls," said Audrey Nogle, elections commissioner. "I think that with the new sites they will swish polling sites, but there won't be a significant increase in voter turnout."
Of the 3,810 students who voted last year, 27.7 percent were freshmen. Nobile said
"Last year we had miserable weather. It was 30 or 40 degrees during elections," he said. "It'll be better weather this year, and that will increase the number of people who vote."
Weather might affect voter turnout, said Brad Finkeldei, Elections Commission chairman.
student body president, said he expected voter turnout to increase.
Kevin Yoder, Campus Cause candidate for
"When you make it more convenient for people to vote, they will," he said.
Emily Heath, Delta Force candidate for student body president, said that organized living groups such as fraternities, sororites and scholarship halls tended to vote more.
Lung Huang, Goodland junior and Interfraternity Council vice president for public relations, said that approximately 18.2 percent of

"I think it's easier to mobilize people when they live together and see each other every day," she said.
In addition to freshmen, other large voting populations include living organizations.
eligible voters were members of fraternities and sororites.
Dave Diefendorf, Littleton, Colo., sophomore and Delta Tau Delta president, said that a lot of fraternity and sorority members voted.
Finkeldei said he thought organized living might affect whether students voted, but it ultimately was an individual's decision.
"There are designated people who go around to all the houses and remind them to get out and vote during elections." he said.
"I think voting is more driven by what people are interested in," he said.
Elections begin today and will continue through tomorrow afternoon. Students must bring their KUIDs with Spring 1998 stickers, not their smartcards, to be eligible to vote.

Diversity may be a class act in future
By Emily C. Forsyth
eforsyth@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The proposal will be reviewed by the College Assembly next fall, and if approved, it will be enacted in Fall 1999.
The Committee on Undergraduate Studies and Advising voted unanimously yesterday to implement a diversity requirement for students in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences.
The diversity requirement would stipulate that a student who receives bachelor's degree from the college must take a class that emphasizes the diverse cultures of the United States.
A list of courses currently offered at the University of Kansas that would fulfill the requirement includes Sociology 601: Introduction to Feminist Social Theory, English 571: American Indian Literature and History 631: Contemporary African-American Experience. The list also includes courses from American studies, communications, political science, anthropology and sociology.
"I imagine there will be a lot of misconceptions about the details of how the diversity requirement will work," Votaw said. "It does not necessarily mean students will be taking an extra three hours."
koeneie voaw, Lawrence senior and co-chairwoman of the Ad Hoc Committee for the U.S. Diversity Requirement, has been working with a group of about 20 students, faculty and staff to pass the requirement.
One important aspect of the requirement is that it can be fulfilled by courses that satisfy
One important aspect of the requirement is that it can be fulfilled by courses that satisfy other distribution requirements. Votaw said.
Shepherd said that the Ad Hoc Committee provided strong arguments for passing the proposal.
Greg Shepherd, associate professor and member of the committee, said that many committee members were concerned about adding credit hour requirements.
"I think it would be a good thing for the college, which is why I voted for it," Shepherd said. "It is a requirement that's increasingly common at universities around the country. While we have a requirement for Western and non-Western courses, we have no requirement for studying the diversity within the United States."
Gloria Flores, associate director of the Office of Minority Affairs, said that the decision was an important step in helping KU students become more well-rounded and open to diversity.
"This is just one of many efforts that we should attempt at KU for diversity education." Flores said.
What: A requirement mandating that a student who earns a bachelor's degree from the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences must take a course that emphasizes diverse cultures in the United States.
DIVERSITY REQUIREMENT:
■ When: The proposal was passed yesterday by the Committee on Undergraduate Studies and Advising. a group of 12 faculty members
Proposal's future: The proposal will be reviewed by the College Assembly next fall and if passed, it will take effect in Fall 1999
- **Courses:** A list of courses currently offered at the University that would fulfill the requirement includes AMS 110: The American People, AMS 522: American Racial and Ethnic Relations, ANTH 376: North American Indians, ANTH 378: Contemporary North American Indians, COMS 246: Introduction to Intercultural Communication, COMS 447: Intercultural Communication, ENGL 571: American Indian Literature, ENGL 574: African-American Literature, HIST 348: Peoples of Kansas, HIST 631: Contemporary African-American Experience, POLS 614: Urban Politics, SOC 352: Sociology of Sex Soles, SOC 601: Introduction to Feminist Social Theory
CLARIFICATION:
An informational graphic on the front page of yesterday's Kansan incorrectly implied that a bill in the Kansas Legislature that would revoke the full-time state employee status of graduate teaching assistants had passed. The bill has not passed but is being considered.

Wheeler said that the suspect dropped some of the bags during the pursuit.
"He bent over to pick them up, whereupon he was captured by police," Wheeler said.
He said none of the chips had been eaten.
The man was arrested on one count of burglary and one count of theft, Wheeler said.

Group seeks benefits for domestic partners
By Marcelo Vilela
mvilela@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The Gay and Lesbian Academic and Staff Advocates think that the University of Kansas should offer unmarried couples the same benefits it offers married couples.
To reach this goal, the group submitted a proposal, known as the domestic partnership policy, to Provost David Shulenburger on Monday.
The proposal asks for benefits that are within the University's jurisdiction, such as child care on campus, family housing, spousal hiring policies, use of physical fitness and recreation facilities and Kansas residency. It does not request health benefits for domestic partners.
Christine Robinson, Lawrence graduate student and head of the domestic partnership task force, said that the University was practicing institutional discrimination based on the basis of sex, sexual orientation and marital status.
"We're asking that the University establish a University-wide domestic partnership policy, which provides access to same and other-sex couples to benefits and University facilities, which are extended to spouses of students, faculty and staff members," Robinson said.
Robinson said that other universities such as the University of Iowa and the University of Colorado already offered some domestic partnership benefits to their students, staffs and faculties.
She said that the Delta Force Coalition for Student Senate had domestic partnership in its platform.
Matt Dunbar, Delta Force candidate for student body vice president, said that domestic partnership fell along with other efforts to reflect under-represented groups.
Kevin Yoder, Campus Cause candidate for student body president, recognized the importance of the issue but didn't consider it important enough to make it into Campus Cause's platform.
Provost David Shulenburger said that the proposal was valid but too complicated.
"The notion of treating people fairly is at the core of what the University is about," Shulenburger said. "But it's a pretty complex proposal, and it's unlikely we get around making any decision this spring."

Tax party to make return
By Jennifer Roush Special to the Kansan
Some Lawrence residents are planning to celebrate one of the least joyous occasions of the year tonight—the deadline for filing federal income taxes.
For 12 years, the post office in downtown Lawrence has been the site of the annual April 15 Tax Party. The festivities will be from 9:00 to 11:1
The Alfard Packer Memorial String Band assembles every year inside the lobby of post office, 845 Vermont St.,
For the final hour, the band will open the stage to anyone who wants to perform acoustic music. At 11:55 p.m., members of the audience form gauntlets at each entrance to the post office. The band then launches into the "William Tell Overture", and the audience chants "Go, go, go!" to taxpayers racing to beat the midnight deadline.
to help procrastinating tax-form filers forget about their financial troubles.
Bill Lawrence, post office manager of customer services, said the atmosphere was festive.
"We usually get around 3,000 people on that last night. It's a real blockparty atmosphere," he said
Steve Mason, band member, saia that tax-filers would hear anything from banjos to washboards.
Mason said that since the band had been playing the "tax gig," it had gained national recognition. The band has been featured in such publications as The Wall Street Journal and Reader's Digest. A few years ago, Mason spoke live to Bob Edwards for National Public Radio's "Morning Edition."
City commission addresses issue of needed gymnasium
By Jeremy M. Doherty jdoherty@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
The Lawrence City Commission took a break from bike lanes at last night's meeting and considered the city's need for gym space
Commissioner John Nalbandian, University of Kansas professor of public administration, presented a memo urging the construction of gym space for organized indoor sports. The building he recommended in the memo would be located along a commercial corridor such as 6th Street.
The memo also suggested that future recreational sites be constructed in places where neighborhoods might exist.
Nalbandian said he developed the memo after citizens protested a plan to construct a church at Corpus Christi Catholic Church, 1100 Kasold Drive. Citizens complained in February that such a center would increase traffic congestion inside residential neighborhoods.
"I'm surprised time and time again that people do not present positive feelings to these recreational centers if they're proposed near where they live," Nalbandian said.
As the commission discussed the memo, Mayor Marty Kennedy said that no specific actions would be made until the Parks and Recreation Advisory Board met in May.

Two commissioners offered reservations about the memo.
"We just want to take Commis-
Commissioner Bob Moody said that Nalbandian's ideas did not succeed in outlining the lack of gym space.
"That's not meeting our immediate need," Moody said.
Erv Hodges, vice-mayor, agreed with Moody and suggested a potential site northwest of the University at Monterey and Harvard streets.
"We need gym space," he said. "There's a place in this city for the recreation center, and I'm standing behind Dad Perry Park."

Kansan irresponsible biased for Delta Force
When Andy Obermueller was asked to resign from the Opinion page and editorial board, it was attributed to his partisan alignment. Judging from the 2.27.1 ratio of Delta Force to Campus Cause senator endorsements, as well as endorsing Emily Heath and Matt Dunbar instead of Kevin Yoder and Scott Kaiser, Obermueller apparently just sided with the wrong party. Why did The University Daily Kansan reduce the future of student government and involvement to two hokey questions on a form-letter questionair? This bodes poorly for the Kansan, when it stands willing to influence the perceptions of its 13,500 readers based on writing ability rather than individual dynamics or personal knowledge of the candidates.
Irresponsible journalism is a journalist's greatest fear, yet you so readily plaster it across the centerfold of our paper. Maybe someone on Student Senate could draft a resolution to encourage journalistic restraint — or would that cause them to fall even further from the Kansan's favor?

Senators have reasons to question KU Veterans
This is to address some of David Perico's allegations concerning the lack of "professional" conduct by Delta Force at Student Senate meetings. I think he left two important factors out
First, nearly every group that has requested funding this year has had its request closely scrutinized, both in committees and in Senate. Many senators have done this under the guise of fiscal conservatism. These same individuals publicly have condemned Senate for acting like Santa Claus. Perico's organization received scrutiny because many senators thought that a group which only has been in existence for six months was asking for a computer prematurely, considering that many more established groups have
not received that sort of fiscal support.
Second, and far more upsetting, was a comment made by one of the people attending the meeting to show support for Perico's organization. When a question was asked concerning sexual discrimination, this individual said, quite audibly, "Let the faggots in." I can think of few things more unprofessional than hate speech.

Senators unfairly judge KU Veterans Association
I am writing this in reference to the Student Senate meeting on April 8. There are two reasons why I am writing this letter. One is to let students out there know about the KU Veterans Association, and the other is to remind students how important it is to vote in the upcoming Senate elections.
Greg Woollen, non-traditional senator, proposed two bills for the KU Veterans Association. One was to get a computer and the other was to get general office supplies for this group.
Let me give you a little bit of information about the KU Veterans Association. There are literally hundreds if not thousands of KU students who are veterans, married to veterans, sons or daughters of veterans, current members of the Reserves or National Guard, ROTC students and many others. On campus, there are about 500 people collecting the GI Bill as veterans and almost 300 ROTC students who will be directly affected by this group. This group is open to anyone and encourages people to join. The diversity of this group is what make it so supportive. The backgrounds of all the members give it the strength it has. Being realistic, mostly people with a tie to the military will have an interest in this group and people without that tie will probably not be interested. But that doesn't mean you can't be involved in it, just the opposite is true. Experience and diversity make a group stronger.
The debate about the computer lasted for several hours. At fist this proposal
was opposed by several senators because the Department of Defense has a "Don't ask, Don't tell" policy regarding homosexuals in the military. Freed Keeney, the secretary for the group, explained several times that this group has no discrimination policies and this is not affiliated with the Department of Defense. The homosexual community has a justifiable gripe with the defense department. But it is not fair to punish this student group that has no such policies or any ties to groups that do. Keeney explained that point again and again, and I hope that after several hours the point was made.
Lastly, I would like to thank Dave Perico and Fred Keeney for organizing this valuable organization. I also would like to thank Greg Woolen for proposing bills to help the group and Dion Jones and Scott Kaiser for supporting this cause.
This debate seemed more about politics than assisting a student organization. The fundamental differences between the two coalitions truly amazed me. I must sadly admit that I have never voted in an election but that has changed because of the other night. When members of one coalition can be openly hostile to such a large and honorable group, it showed me that such coalitions don't support students. They support political parties. It is our responsibility as students to elect people who will serve all students in a professional way.
As a 26-year-old, non-traditional student and also a combat veteran of the army, I wish the veteran's group had been on campus when I transferred here. Having moved from California and having two small children was hard enough, but not knowing anything about this campus or community added to it. I am sure a lot of my problems could have been helped out with this group. The value of helping someone out of a problem can't be measured. If this group helps out one future KU student, it will have served its purpose. I am absolutely sure that hundreds if not thousands will be assisted in one way or another.

Perspective
Dedication, experience will better University
Campus Cause is the reason you should vote this year. Let me describe the basic philosophy of Campus Cause. We think that the University of Kansas is a great university. As
PETER
Written by Kevin Yoder
proud Jaynawks, we have a vested interest in the improvement of our campus. Each of us has pledged our support to making the University a better place for all students not just special interests. We believe in positive change for this University and not the idea of a revolution or an overthrow of the KU administration. The Campus Cause coalition has great energy and dedication for the bright future our campus holds. It is this passion that drives Campus Cause to make the University the best it possibly can be.
However, it is not just philosophy that is going to improve this campus. Campus Cause has slated a plan to deal with many of the pressing concerns of the student body. However, we did not arrive at these issues solely through our ideas, we surveyed hundreds of students on this campus to find out
YOU'VE BEEN HOLLOW.
what they would like to see improved. They came up with the issues of enrollment, parking, safety and fees. Campus Cause has drafted a specific plan to solve all of these concerns. Campus Cause would like to improve our enrollment system by pressing for an online, computerized enrollment system in which students could enroll on the Internet. For parking concerns, Campus Cause will establish a park-and-ride system from the Lied Center.
Scott Kaiser
restripe parking lots and push for student spaces in the new Kansas Union parking garage. As for safety, Campus Cause will work to expand Safe Ride and add lighting and blue phones to campus. Campus Cause also pledges our support to let students play a bigger role in deciding what fees are enacted by sending all potential fee increases to a student-wide vote.
How can Campus Cause make all of this happen? With experienced leaders who know how to set goals and solve problems, Campus Cause candidates are ready to tackle any issue that comes their way. With members from more than 130 student organizations, including may officers within those groups, we are great representatives of the KU population. Among our candidates, we have 13 members from the residence halls, members of scholarship halls, off campus and fraternities and sororites. We also boast leaders such as the President of the Black Student Union and the President of Lewis Hall. It is with Campus Cause that students can be assured of the strong leaders that Student Senate needs and must have.
This year Student Senate has greatly misrepresented the feelings of students on campus. Campus Cause wants to fight to bring Senate back to the forum for all students. The coalition will work to unite not only the Student Senate but the entire student body. However, this task cannot be won on a partisan effort. To realize any goals, we must remove coalition biases once we get in Senate. This year some Senators kept their coalition ties and failed to represent what students really wanted. Campus Cause will lead the efforts to look at all issues for what they are, and not who is presenting them.
Hopefully, Campus Cause's concise plan to solve campus problems, our positive message and proven experience have given you reason to cast a ballot for Campus Cause today or tomorrow.
Yoder and Kaiser are Campus Cause candidates for president and vice president.
Action speaks louder than rhetoric for group
Y you probably shared the same stereotype of the student body president and vice president as we did. two white, male political science majors who seek the positions more
for themselves than for the student body's best interests. Last year, Delta Force began to question these stereotypes. To be an effective student body president or vice president, one needs passion, ideas, and ingenuity. We believe a female social worker and a male environmental studies major both are extremely qualified for these roles.

Students need to question their leaders. But what makes a good leader? Is it being a committee chairperson, or is it the ability to mobilize people? Is it serving on the correct board or holding the right title, or is it seeing true results from accomplished work? Leaders should have their own beliefs, passions, and issues, but they should adapt those issues to suit the needs of all students.
PETER J. BARRISON
Delta Force believes in
Written by Matt Dunbar
questioning the system, why it exists, and deciding what we can do to improve it. This doesn't entail burning down Strong Hall or ousting the current administration. It means working hard for real changes.
Thirty-five years ago students may have been a bit more radical, but they knew this as well. Where do we stand now? Is activism no longer cool? Have we lost hope and bought into the idea that we cannot challenge our predecessors or the system that placed them there? Delta Force decided to show students that activism still is
alive and that we all need to be a part of it
We've noticed some differences on campus and in the community. These changes were motivated by the same energy driving Delta Force. Lawrence now has an independent newspaper, the University of Kansas once again has a Feminist Union, and students of color are demanding that their voices be heard. KU students are energized, mobilized and ready to take some action. Let's not stop now.
Delta Force sees positive changes in the University's future. Ideas like fall break, increasing the number of minority faculty and students, a domestic partnership policy and bike lanes on campus and in Lawrence are credited to students. We see more students involved in student government: students from residence halls, scholarship halls, greek houses and off-campus residences. We must not shut out these bright and motivated individuals simply because they don't fit the standards of politicians. We should embrace them for their new and unique talents and abilities.
As Delta Force candidates, we believe this campus is ready for a change. We've lived in residence halls, off campus and in Greek houses. We've experienced all types of leadership from social service to social action groups. We believe in issues, and we don't have to be elected to work on these ideas. We will not let this movement die.
Get involved. Be a part of the action. Seeing ideas you believe in carried through is a beautiful experience. What kind of legacy do you want to leave here? Do you want to look back and say you were part of it all, to say, "I helped get these bikes on campus, create a city-wide bus system, and saw the Chancellor's minority faculty goals met?"
Do you want student leaders you can approach with new ideas, even if these ideas are a little crazy? We did, and we still do. That's why we're running.
Get out and vote today or tomorrow.
Heath and Dunbar are Delta Force candidates for president and vice president.

KU Veterans group connected to military
I am writing in response to David Perris's letter entitled "Discrimination by certain Delta Force senators wrong." First let me preface this by saying that my father is an Air Force veteran. I have been raised with nothing but the utmost respect for people who give their lives to defend America. I hate neither veterans nor men and women in the military. I do, however, have a problem with the military's position on homosexuality.
As an officer in Queers and Allies, I am aware of prejudices and discrimination against members of the queer community. The U.S. military's "Don't ask-don't tell" policy is the most organized form of discrimination against homosexuals
today. The policy makes it legal for the military to discharge anyone who openly proclaims homosexuality.
I admire the senators at the April 8 Student Senate meeting who recognized this connection and took a stand. These senators realized that by supporting Perico's agenda, they also would be supporting an organization that supports some of the very principles that Delta Force rallies against.
Perico referred to "insults, objections and unjustified attacks" on his organization. The senators questioned whether funding his organization would violate Senate Rules and Regulations. They should do this with every bill. The only insult and objection that was uncalled for at this meeting was when a uniformed man who supported the KU Veterans Association suggested that they "let the faggots in."
This policy is enforced by the Department of Defense, which funds the ROTC program, is connected to the KU Veterans Association. Do you see the connection?
Perico, will your organization support this kind of behavior in the same manner you supported it at this meeting? Will you deny us the right to stand up for who we are?
Perico's blame is misplaced.
This has nothing to do with Senate and Delta Force. Before Perico places blame on Delta Force, which does strive to improve the quality of life for all KU students, he should look at his organization and see if it strives for the same thing.

Wolf lecture to start events for Earth Day
By Graham K. Johnson gjohnson @kansan.com
Kansan staff member
Kansan staff writer
A new campus group, Students for WildCare, will begin Earth Day events by sponsoring a speech about wolves and the environment tomorrow night.
Ray Pierotti, assistant professor of systematics and ecology, will lead a discussion about how wolves relate to their environments, Native Americans and Western cultures. The free event will be at 7 p.m. tomorrow at 2023 Worsthall Horton
Pierotti said he would discuss the social lives of wolves and the contrast between the relationships that Native Americans and Western Europeans traditionally have had with wolves. He said he hoped to educate people about the realities of wolves in contrast to some of the myths.
"Native peoples got along very well with wolves." Pierrot said.
"Europeans have a fascination-hatred relationship with wolves."
Sarah Fleming, Prairie Village junior and president of Students for WildCare, said that Pierotti would bring slides, information on wolves and possibly a surprise guest. Fleming said people interested in wolves and wildlife would benefit from the talk.
"Ray Pierotti works with wolves and is very knowledgeable about them." Fleming said.
Fleming said members of Students for WildCare recently had cared for an injured wolf-dog hybrid while working at a local wildlife rehabilitation center.
She said that members often volunteered at WildCare, a private nonprofit wildlife rehabilitation center west of DeSoto. The center captures and cares for injured, orphaned and sick wild animals native to Kansas and then releases them back into nature, said Regan Johnston, WildCare veterinarian.
Fleming said that Students for WildCare supported the Wild-Care center not only through volunteering but also by educating the public about wildlife issues.
Students for WildCare returned to campus two months ago after two years of inactivity, Fleming said. The group has about 10 members and hopes the speech, its first sponsored event, will attract the interest of potential members, she said.
Individuals interested in the group should call Fleming at 832-6104.
Groups across campus join for Earth Day events
By Graham K. Johnson gjohnson@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
Earth Day '98 should be fun and informative, organizers say. There also will be plenty of things to do on April 22.
At least 12 Earth Day events have been coordinated by a coalition of 12 student groups at the University of Kansas. The groups, which range from KU Environs to the Latter-day Saints Students Association, have joined celebrate Earth Day, said Todd Simmons, Augusta senior and Environmental Studies Student Association president.
"This year should be one of the better Earth Days as far as having things to do because there are so many groups participating," Simmons said.
Events will be held from April 16 to 29. The focus will be on April 22, with a lecture by environmental writer Doug Peacock in the Kansas Union Ballroom at 7 p.m.
That weekend will feature a Planet Party at South Park and a Kaw River cleanup.
The University hasn't always had this many Earth Day events, Simmons said.
"Last year I didn't really see a whole lot happening on campus for Earth Day," he said.
Simmons said group leaders decided to meet once a week for the past two months to plan the series of events.
Andrea Repinsky, Olathe junior and co-coordinator of KU Enviros, said that in the past, Enviros had been left to do much of the planning for Earth Day. The help from groups should make the celebration better, she said.
"It's really good to have help from other groups, because its a big task and this allows us to accomplish more," Repinsky said.
Repinsky and Simmons said most groups were contributing to the planning and advertising for the celebration.
Victoria Silva, head of the Office of Resource Conservation and Recycling, which is sponsoring several Earth Day panels, said she worked with the student groups to make sure the events were spread out during a few weeks.
"I purposely planned things throughout out the month so that there wasn't a heavy concentration during the week of the 22nd," Silva said.
The first Earth Day was observed on April 22, 1970. It was established by Wisconsin Sen. Gaylord Nelson as a way to raise awareness about environmental issues he thought had been ignored by the government and the media. The event has been held annually on April 22. Its purpose remains the same. Silva said.
"It is a good time for people to reflect and be aware of their surroundings," Silva said. "Personally, I would like to see Earth Day events held once a month, but it doesn't work that way."

With the onset of warmer weather, students may see KU Public Safety Officers patrolling the University of Kansas campus on bicycles.
But Sgt. Chris Keary said that with four job openings for officers in the public safety office, the bike patrol would not be used as often this spring as it had been in the past.
"We would like to get more

bikes out," he said. "There are officers who are trained to ride. It's a matter of being available."
Keary said that the first priority was to make sure that the regular vehicle patrols were covered.
Keary said that one advantage of patrolling on bicycle was easier maneuverability through large crowds.
"They can get from one place to
another quickly." he said.
Keary said that it was easier to get from one side of campus to another on a bicycle, especially between classes when the University was in session.
Another advantage is that officers can interact with the community better, Keary said. He said students found officers on bicycles more approachable.
patrol, but the bikes do not have emergency lights, he said.
Bicycles also are effective in patrolling parking lots because they are not as conspicuous, Keary said. Each bike is equipped with a headlight for nighttime
Sgt. George Wheeler said that the Lawrence police department generally sent officers out in pairs for bike patrol.
Wheeler said that officers usually patrolled downtown Lawrence during the weekends and during parades.
"On football game days, we always run four bicycles." Wheeler said. "If we have the manpower, and we know there are going to be a lot of people, we'll use them."

Haitian singers hold workshop for KU students
MUSIC

Kansas Staff Writer
The Haitian vocal ensemble Meli Melomane performed yesterday afternoon for about 90 people in Murphy Hal, singing a capella versions of everything from William Byrd's "Ave Verum Corpus" to the Beatles' "Yesterday."
The group performed songs in Creole, English, French, Latin and African languages in a workshop conducted by Simon Carrington, the university's director of choral activities.

"They're just amazing." Carrington said. "To sing that well unaccompanied is very difficult. It takes tremendous breath control."
Carrington said that he invited Mellietoman to conduct a choral workshop and that the group was not paid for the visit. The group also will be performing tonight during the cancellor's dinner for the Board of Regents, Carrington said.
Ricardo Lesperance, 22, sings tenor in the ensemble. Lesperance said singing without musical accompaniment was an obstacle each member of the group had to overcome during the past year.
we're still not used to it," he said. "It is a challenge for us to be by ourselves like this."
Mell Melomane was formed in February 1997 by Cathy Parrill. Parrill, the group's director, said that the ensemble was easy to work with because it was such a close group.
"I've never seen a group with more joy than this one," she said. "They have strength that comes from their love of each other and their love of God."
Mell Meloman is composed of eight men from Port-au-Prince, Haiti's capital. The men range in age from 18 to 25.
Guy Montes, 23, sings bass for the group. Montes said that the members of the group had known each
other for several years.
"We went to the same elementary school when we were little boys, and we met in the boy's choir," Montes said.
He said Meli Melomane was formed when the boys were in the school men's choir.
"Cathy held an audition to find the best of the men's choir, and we've been together since," he said.
Montes said that the ensemble was heading to Orlando, Fla., where it hoped to record an album, after its Kansas stop. He said the group had learned and experienced a lot during the month touring in the United States.
"Everywhere we go, people are trying to help us and are interested in what we are doing," Montes said.
Fritz Esperance, 23, sings alto and soprano and has two brothers in the ensemble. His twin, Lesly, and his younger brother, Mackenson,
18. both sing bass.
Esperance said that although the tour had been exhausting, it had been a good learning experience.
"The month has made us tired, but we know that we have to sing well every place that we go and that we have to show a good face of our country." he said.
Parrill said that promoting an image of Haiti that was different from the depictions received in American media is important to the group.
"Their goal is for more people to grow more knowledgeable about music, but just as importantly, about Haiti," she said.
Amy Carlson, Overland Park senior, said that she was amazed at Meli Melomane's vocal abilities.
"Iliked it best when they sang in Creole, because that's where their culture and strength showed," Carlson said.

KU students turn trash to art
Olathe group exhibits work at art museum

These works and other out ofthe-ordinary pieces are part of the exhibit that began Monday in the Kansas Union gallery.
Arches made of video monitors, ceramic faces floating in an aquarium, a basketball hoop surrounded by Arabic inscriptions, and a skinned human head. It's all art.
The exhibit is called "Olathe); with Synonyms and Antonyms." It is the result of a group of University of Kansas students, all from Olathe, who decided to show the work they have been creating since high school.
"It's a pretty wide variety of works displayed," Millard said. "Everybody has his own thing going on."
The other members of the group are senior Hesse McGraw, senior Brock Batten, freshman Kyle Batten, senior Jeff Calvert, senior Steve Davis, senior Kiel Johnson, senior Dan Rolf and "X-Files."
Senior Travis Millard said that the exhibit showed the diversity of the works. Many of them use junkyard pieces in creative ways.
"He is an enigmatic mystery,"
The group is not willing to reveal the identity of "X.Files."
The group members come from majors as distinct as sculpture, illustration, English, philosophy and painting. They grew up together and converged on fine arts when they came to the University. McGraw originated the idea for the exhibit.
"We all have affinities for found objects that transform themselves into sculptures," McGraw said. "My very favorite is the one with a tool box, a vacuum cleaner and a picture of Yasmine Bleeth."
Nicole Mermis, Houston junior and SUA fine arts coordinator, commended the group's
initiative.
"I think it's important that undergraduates get their work shown in professional settings." Mermis said. "I like their work — it's really eclectic."
Matt Cochran, Kansas City, Mo., sophomore, thought the exhibit was interesting and innovative.
"I like the use of different materials, turning everyday things into art," Cochran said.
Nick Wood, Lawrence sophomore, liked the pottery.
"It caught my eye when I was passing by," Wood said. "It is very different, they use different media to make art."
The use of ordinary materials made into something artistic pleased Martin Cheng, Lawrence resident and artist.
"Those are really good ideas," Cheng said. "I think it gives you a slightly different point of view on things. It gives you a weird feeling."
The exhibit's closing reception will be Friday from 7 to 9 p.m. During the reception, "XFiles" will perform in a multimedia sight and sound presentation.
The exhibit will be open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. until Friday in the gallery.
Candidates claim greek/non-greek unity as a priority
By Marc Sheforgen and Carl Kamsinski msheforgen@kansan.com ckamsinski@kansan.com Kansan staff writers
Last year's Student Senate election seemed to pit greeces members against non-greecs, but this year Delta Force has made an effort to include more greecs and Campus Cause has tried to include more non-greecs.
The composition of the coalitions is no secret, however.
Sixty percent of Campus Cause candidates are in fraternities or sororites, while only 13 percent of Delta Force candidates are greek.
While these statistics suggest that both coalitions still are divided heavily along greek-vs. independent lines, candidates from both coalitions say intracoalition diversity has improved since last year.
Seth Hoffman, Delta Force candidate for a Liberal Arts and Sciences seat, said that Delta Force wanted to represent all of the campus population, so getting more support from the greek community was the coalition's goal.
"Last year we did not have the time to get a lot of these people. A bunch of the hardest workers on the coalition this year are greek," Hoffman said.
Campus Cause members said its membership was representative of the University.
"I think it's unfortunate when people make it look like Delta Force has half the Greek communu
nity and everyone else," said Kevin Yoder, Campus Cause candidate for student body president.
Yoder said Campus Cause was not backed solely by the greek community.
"We have people from the scholarship halls and all of the residence halls supporting us," he said.
Korb Maxwell, Delta Force candidate for a Liberal Arts and Sciences seat, said allegations of Delta Force's anti-greek sentiment were unfounded and were used by Campus Cause candidates to detract from Delta Force's platform.
Maxwell said that at one campaign visit to a sorority house, sorority members showed up wearing Campus Cause pins and asked about Delta Force's supposedly anti-greek views.
"Once the issue questions ran out, they got into hearsay and rumors," he said.
David Wisley, Campus Cause candidate for a Liberal Arts and Sciences seat, said that having more greeks on his coalition was an advantage.
"I guess it would be, because a large portion of the greek community does vote," he said.
Wisley said that although many greek voters might genuinely be concerned about the issues, he thought most Greeks went to the polls to support their Greek brothers and sisters.
Because only 23 percent of KU students are greek, voter turnout should not decide the election, said Aaron Proffitt, Independent candidate for a Nunemaker seat.
If a majority-greek coalition has a political advantage, it is because not enough KU students go to the polls, Proffitt said.
In last year's Student Senate election, 13 percent of students voted.
Loyalties divide houses between coalition leaders
By Carl Kaminski
ckaminski@kansan.com
Kanson stuff writes
This year's election races have found greek candidates pitted against one another as chapter members break ranks and run with different coalitions.
Grey Montgomery, last year's student body president, has thrown his support behind Emily Heath. Delta Force candidate for student body president.
Montgomery said he advised Heath early in January and February. His role is fairly minor now, he said.
Montgomery is a member of Beta Theta Pi fraternity, the same fraternity as Scott Kaiser, Campus Cause candidate for student body vice president.
He said that he and Kaiser had no problems with his support of Heath.
Kaiser agreed that the two opposing views had not been an issue.
"I haven't really been engaged in any political activities in the house," he said.
by snapling the house," he said. But Montgomery said that he had encountered some resentment from Greek students who saw the elections as Greek vs. non-greek and were upset about his helping Heath.
"I have a relationship with Grey outside the house," he said.
"I don't have a whole lot of respect for people who view it that way," he said. "I have the right to make my own mind."
Brooke Warde, a member of Delta Delta Delta sorority and Campus Cause candidate for a Liberal Arts and Sciences seat, said that when another member of her chapter, Melissa Coleman, decided to run for Student Senate with Delta Force, they talked about why each of them were running with the different coalitions.
Coleman, a candidate for a Liberal Arts and Sciences seat, said that the election had not caused any tension in the chapter and that both candidates had tried not to put sorority members on the spot by asking them to wear buttons.
Korb Maxwell, Delta Force candidate for a Liberal Arts and Sciences seat, said that he was afraid of the reaction his fraternity would have when he decided to run with Delta Force, but that he had found the experience to be positive.
"People are very receptive when I tell them what it is all about," said Maxwell, a member of Sigma Chi fraternity. "People can think for themselves in the Greek system."
He said that a few older members were skeptical, but that he talked with them and worked it out.
Ryan Price, Campus Cause candidate for a Nunemaker seat and Sigma Chi member, said that he had no problem with Maxwell's running with Delta Force.
"He and I are really close and good friends," he said.
He said that both of them had gone to each other with questions about electoral procedures and had been open about their campaigning.
"I don't think that either of us are going behind each other's backs," he said.
Rabid travelers should get vaccinations
By Lisa Stevens John
ljohn@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
University of Kansas students who are taking exotic summer vacations may want to check at Watkins Health Center to make sure they have the recommended vaccinations for the countries they plan to visit.
Passport, socks and vaccinations. There are some things you should not leave the country without.
Randall Rock, Watkins Memorial Health Center chief of staff and physician, said travel vaccines were available at Watkins.
Rock said he would encourage anyone traveling to Central America, South America or Third World countries to receive the hepatitis-A vaccine.
Some of the vaccines require more than one injection, and some need to be administered in one-month intervals, said Cathy Thrasher, Watkins pharmacist.
"The hepatitis-A viral infection is most often transmitted through contaminated food," Rock said. "For certain areas of the world, the risk of malaria, typhoid fever, yellow fever, Japanese encephalitis meningitis or rabies may be significant enough to warrant consideration of immunization prior to travel."
"We subscribe to a software program that gives us monthly updates from the Centers for Disease Control and World Health Organization with regard to travelers' advisories." Rock said.
A computer program at Watkins reviews students' vaccination needs based on the countries they will be visiting.
"As soon as students know where they're going to be going, they need to get started on their shots," Thrasher said. "Sometimes you have a time crunch."
A printout from the program provides phone numbers of the U.S. embassy in each country and gives
"If they have to have an injection or need to have blood drawn in the country of destination, this is the only way to ensure it's done with a sterile syringe. In some of the countries, especially if they are going to a Third World country, or to Central or South America, we know these things are in short supply."

general warnings about driving and safety issues, Rock said.
Watkins Health Center pharmacist
Sonia Farmer, Watkins appointment clerk, said it took about five minutes to run a student's itinerary through the computer program.
To access this service, a student may call 864-9507 or visit the Watkins admissions desk.
Rock also said that traveling students should purchase travel kits from the Watkins Pharmacy.
Renee Readinger, Watkins pharmacist, sold the kits, which cost

"If they have to have an injection or need to have blood drawn in the country of destination, this is the only way you can be sure it's done with a sterile syringe," Readinger said. "In some of the countries, especially if they are going to a Third World country, or to Central or South America or Eastern Europe, we know these things are in short supply."

know he is there for them.
"He opens his home to these people," Cornejo said. "I think he articulates that this is their home, and they're welcome there anytime."
Garland got his first "son" some 18 years ago in Donald Loudermilk.
Cornejo said that Garland talks about the young men who come to his house like a proud father would talk of his child.
In 1980 Loudermilk was living in a boys' home in Independence, Kan. Garland had graduated from Pittsburgh State with a degree in social work and took a job as a juvenile probation officer in Independence.
Loudermilk began visiting Garland on the weekends and found in him the father he never had.
Today's soul food Sunday dinners on 12th street started with Loudermilk's birthday celebrations from his teenage years in Independence.
When Loudermilk moved to Lawrence in 1987, the feasts went from annual to weekly. At the time, Loudermilk was living with KU basketball player Kevin Pritchard, a member of the Jayhawks from 1987-1990. Garland, living in Olathe, would bring his pots and pans to the boys' apartment on Sundays and cook
And the man can cook
There's turkey, fried chicken, even raccoon. There's lots of grease, lots of flavor. It ain't healthy — it's hearty.
"It reminds me of a home-cooked meal my mother would make, some good soul food," KU guard Billy Thomas said. "And for anyone who lives in the dorm, it helps because you can't get around to cook."
He cooks for strangers on a social worker's paycheck, but he does it economically.
"I can cook a meal for about 20 guys for, oh, about 20 bucks," he says.
Garland saves by cooking everything from scratch and looking for deals at the grocery store.
"I cook with whatever meat God has blessed me with to be on sale," he says.
"I'll always be there to help.I sit down with them and help them think of what their options are. But I never tell them how to solve their problems, just what options are available."
Garland Hall mentor to KU students
Garland usually prepares his potatoes and dessert on Saturday night. He then wakes up at 6:30 on Sunday morning to prepare the meat du jour.
When he gets home from church he cooks the vegetables and biscuits and whatever else may remain.
Then the man starts making his calls. Calling all of his children to their "surrogate dad's" house to enjoy a Sunday tradition.
The mood is casual, Styrofoam plates and cups; plastic silverware. The kids file through the kitchen serving themselves.
Then it's into the living room, full plate in hand, to join Garland and his gregarious disposition.
His sons get more than a free meal. Garland is there for them, to joke around with them, to listen to them complain, to help them solve their problems. He wants to help. He wants to be someone they can rely on.
"My kids come to me with all kinds of problems," Garland says. "I'll always be there to help. I sit down with them and help them think of what their options are. But I never tell them how to solve their problems, just what options are available."
When Garland moved to Lawrence in 1990, friends of Loudermilk's friends began rolling through to eat and visit on Sundays. Many of Loudermilk's friends were basketball players, and word of Garland's hospitality has trickled down
through the KU basketball team for the last 10 years.
Blake Weichbrodt, KU player from 1993-1994, once invited Garland to a fraternity function and introduced him as his "surrogate dad," a term Garland appreciated and still uses.
"I had to go home and look up that word some more to find out what it really meant," Garland said. "But I really like that."
Chris Willits, Overland Park senior,
has been going to Garland's for four
years and considers Garland to be a
provider when his parents can't be there.
"I think all of us that go there want to make him proud, like a parent," Willits said. "If I ever could do anything for him, I would. In a heartbeat. What he's done, I could never make up, because he's never asked for anything in return."
Not everyone is so willing to give back.
Garland doesn't expect much, but he likes to visit. He likes to have the kids he cooks for sit down for a few minutes and share something about what's going on in their lives.
Willits has known some people unwilling to give such a simple thing back to such a generous man.
"The biggest thing you can give somebody is your time, and that's what I love to get from people," he said.
"I had some former roommates that went and definitely went for the taking advantage of the food," he said. "They didn't want to get to know Garland. They didn't want to understand why he's doing this. It was just like a free meal."
Unfortunately Garland says more and more kids are becoming that way. So much so that the great chef is considering hanging up his apron, throwing in the dish towel
He says that he probably will always cook for at least two or three kids, but the days of cooking for as many as 20 may be near an end.
But Garland doesn't sweat it. He knows he's touched lives and had his touched many times. If some of today's students don't want to get in on a good thing, so be

Luke Axtell, Big 12 transfers lose eligibility
By Tommy Gallagher
tgallagher@kansan.com
Kansas sportswriter
Transferring within most major college conferences often proves costly for football and basketball players. The Big 12 Conference is no exception.
Football and basketball players must sit out for one season and lose one year of eligibility when they transfer within the Big 12. That means former Texas guard Luke Axtell will be a junior when he finally plays for Kansas in the 1999-2000 season.
But Axtell said he would appeal to the conference to try to retain his sophomore season.
"We're going to do everything we can," Axtell said. "But it's not looking good. A couple of other people have been stalled on their appeals. But really, it doesn't bother me. This doesn't bother me."
BEST MOM
The Axtell family already has asked Texas athletics director DeLoss Dodds to request a penalty waiver from the Big 12 based on the terms of his departure.
Eddie Oran, former Texas assistant basketball coach, allegedly falsified Axtell's grades and faxed them to a local radio station. The grades then were broadcast on the air.
Axtell: Would appeal to retain a year of eligibility.
That action could be enough to prompt conference officials to give Axtell his sophomore season back, following what may have been a new precedent set in March.
Texas A&M guard Brian Barone potentially recovered one year of eligibility when Big 12 faculty representatives voted to drop the penalty if he wanted to transfer within the conference.
Barone, whose father, Tony, was fired as the Aggies' coach after this season, said he was interested in attending Texas. Axtell could benefit from the same exception.
Richard Konzem, Kansas associate athletics director, said Big 12 officials could vote on the issue next month.
"There are spring meetings in May among Big 12 officials." Konzem said. "They provided Brian Barone with an exception earlier. And if there would be an appeal about granting a similar exception, it would likely be heard there."
Iowa State coach Tim Flyo said whether Big 12 officials granted exceptions to Barone and maybe Axtell was none of his business.
"The administrators don't need me telling them how to run the league, and I don't need them telling me how to coach." Floyd said. "But if they made more exceptions to the rule, that would be a good change for all of us, not just Kansas."

Softball team sweeps Shockers

For only the third time this season, the Kansas softball team swept its opponent in a doubleheader.
The Jayhawks won both games (7-2, 3-2) against the Wichita State Shockers yesterday at Jayhawk Field, avenging a split doubleheader against the Shockers two weeks ago.
"Today, I think we basically felt like we were in control the whole game," said second baseman Lezi Leathers.
Five Jayhawks recorded hits in the first game. Shortstop Michelle Hubler led the way, posting two runs and two RBI on a 3-for-3 hitting performance.
After falling behind 1-6 in the first inning, the Jayhawks tied the Shockers in the bottom of the second and never trailed again.
Three doubles — by Hubler, left fielder Sara Holland and second baseman Katie Malone — led to three Kansas runs in the bottom of the third inning, giving the Jawhaws their first lead of the day 3-1.
Holland's double was her 15th of the season, giving her the lead in the Big 12 Conference for doubles this season. She now has 58 in her career, the most in Kansas history.
The Jayhawks took advantage of three Shocker errors in the fourth inning to pick up three more runs and gain a 7-1 lead.
Despite an error by Hubler in the fifth inning leading to an unearned run, pitcher Jessi Kowal picked up the 7-2 win and improved her record to 11-15.
Pitcher Courtney Wilson started the second game for the Jayhawks in her second appearance this season. Wilson had a wrist injury that required surgery last season, but she said she felt good yesterday.
The Shockers scored first in the second game. Leathers dropped a pop-up that appeared to be in foul territory, but the official called it a fair ball. The Shockers picked up an unearned run on the only Jayhawk error of the game.
Kansas came from behind and tied the game in the fourth inning.
Kansas first baseman Shannon Stanixw led off the inning with a base hit to left field and advanced to second on a sacrifice bunt by right fielder Katie Malone. Abbie Berg came in to pinch run for Malone and scored on an RBI double by designated player Christy McPhail.
Leathers reached first base and picked up an RBI on a fielder's choice that scored McPhail, tying the game at two.
Wilson, who gave up only five hits and no earned runs in five innings, was replaced by McPhail in the top of the sixth.
The jayhawks kept the Shockers scoreless in the top of the sixth and took the lead in their half of the inning.
Heather Chambers came in to pinch run after Malone led off the inning with a double to left field. McPhail laid down a sacrifice bunt that advanced Chambers to third.
Leathers picked up the game-winning RBI with a double to left center field. The Jayhawks won 3-2.
"We got a big clutch hit in the bottom of the sixth," said softball coach Tracy Bunge. "Two young players picked us up, and that's nice to see. They were positive and they really believed they could do it."
The Jayhawks, who improved to 24-27, left early to play a doubleheader at noon and 2 p.m. today against Creighton.
For senior tennis player, academics are her racket
By Erin Thompson
Kanson sportswriter
Maria Abatoglou may be a varsity tennis player, but when she looks back on college she wants to remember it as more than just an athletic experience.
In an attempt to experience more during her college days and to provide a new perspective as a student athlete, Abatjoglu is running for Student Senate as a member of the Delta Force Coalition.
"I'm concerned with the rec center." Abatjoglu said. "It's disturbing to see how little students have here. People don't use Robinson as only recreational. It's for academics, also. Something really needs to be done."
The most pressing issue for Abatjoglu is the lack of adequate recreational facilities for University of Kansas students. As a member of the tennis team, she has had the opportunity to see the facilities at other schools.
"She's extremely dedicated on the academic side," he said. "She's on a different level than most kids on campus in that aspect. She's very goal-oriented, which is something you don't see in a lot of student athletes. She does a great job of balancing both sides of being a student athlete."
Abatjoglu's dedication to everything she does would be a strong base for her as a Student Senate member, Kansas tennis coach Roland Thorn匪vist said.
As a tennis player, Abatjoglou is a three-time first team academic all-conference selection and a two-time first team academic All American. She won the Big Eight No. 4 singles title as a freshman and was the only Kansas player to win a tournament last fall.
The tennis team jokes that if you were to combine Abatjogou's scholastic achieve
ments with the athletic achievements of her All-American teammate Kylie Hunt, you would have one studly person.
YANEHARA SELMAN
"I want to participate in as many normal activities as possible," she said. "When I think back on college, I want to think of college and not athletics."
Although Abatjoglou has reached her senior year as a tennis player, she has another year of school remaining. She does not concentrate on the end of her tennis career but on her opportunity to participate in more facets of student life, she said.
In her rare moments of free time, Abatoglou has participated in a number of activities. She is president of the Student-Athlete Advisory Committee and serves on the University of Kansas Athletics Commission. Abatoglou also helped shape the mission statement for the Kansas Athletics Department and attended the Blueprints Leadership Conference last fall.
Of all that she has accomplished, Abatjoglou said she was most proud of being president of Student-Athlete Advisory Committee. She said this was more important to her than any of her tennis accomplishments.
While playing tennis and balancing all her activities, Abatjoglou has maintained a 4.0 grade point average as a double major in philosophy and Spanish.
After graduation, Abatjoglou plans to attend law school.

Kansas clean-up hitter Josh Dimmick came to the plate with the bases loaded in the eighth inning of a 4-1 game last night at Hogglund-Maupin Stadium. Wichita State closer Marc Bluma fired a low fastball on a 3-1 count, and Dimmick bit on the pitch, drilling a slow grounder to shortstop to end the Javahwks' threat.
Bluma, who has allowed just two earned runs in more than thirty innings this season, struck out three Jayhawks in the ninth and picked up his fifth save of the season. Kansas (17-19) must regroup at 7 tonight against the ninth-ranked Shockers (28-3) in Wichita.
"We had the right guy up, but Bluma made the right pitch," said Kansas head coach Bobby Randall. "We had the chance late in a game against a top-10 team. We just didn't come through."
Wichita State starter Erich Bryan picked up his fifth win of the season, battling through seven and two-thirds innings and allowing just one run.
"Against pitchers like Bryan and Bluma, you're not going to get many chances to score," Randall said. "We had one chance against Bluma in the eighth, and he beat us."
Kansas pitcher Les Waldron kept the Jayhawks in the game, giving up just three runs in seven innings while dropping to 3-4.
"Les struggled in the first inning, but he battled for us," Randall said. "He threw well, but I also know he can throw better than that."
Kansas right fielder Doug Dreher had a key lead-off hit in the eighth inning and
"Doug is just a freshman, but he's a scrappy little guy," Randall said. "His heart is as big as this place."
made a diving stab near the foul line in the seventh inning.
Josh Bailey, who closed the game on the mound for Kansas, said the team might play better with its back against the wall.
"We're getting to the point we have to win games to get to the Big 12 tournament," Bailey said. "Maybe the pressure to perform will push us through to win some close games."
Wichita State, a traditional power, always draws a large crowd to Hoglund-Maupin Stadium. The game drew 1,320 fans, the third-highest total in stadium history.

Luke Axtell, Big 12 transfers lose eligibility
By Tommy Gallagher
tgallagher@kansan.com
Kansas sportswriter
Transferring within most major college conferences often proves costly for football and basketball players. The Big 12 Conference is no exception.
Football and basketball players must sit out for one season and lose one year of eligibility when they transfer within the Big 12. That means former Texas guard Luke Axell will be a junior when he finally plays for Kansas in the 1999-2000 season.
But Axtell said he would appeal to the conference to try to retain his sophomore season.
"We're going to do everything we can," Axtell said. "But it's not looking good. A couple of other people have been stalled on their appeals. But really, it doesn't bother me. This doesn't bother me."
PETER RUBY
The Axtell family already has asked Texas athletics director DeLoss Dodds to request a penalty waiver from the Big 12 based on the terms of his departure.
Eddie Oran, former Texas assistant basketball coach, allegedly falsified Axtell's grades and faxed them to a local radio station. The grades then were broadcast on the air.
Axtell: Would appeal to retain a year of eligibility.
That action could be enough to prompt conference officials to give Axtell his sophomore season back, following what may have been a new precedent set in March.
Texas A&M guard Brian Barone potentially recovered one year of eligibility when Big 12 faculty representatives voted to drop the penalty if he wanted to transfer within the conference.
Barone, whose father, Tony, was fired as the Aggies' coach after this season, said he was interested in attending Texas. Axtell could benefit from the same exception.
Richard Konzem, Kansas associate athletics director, said Big 12 officials could vote on the issue next month.
"There are spring meetings in May among Big 12 officials." Konzem said. "They provided Brian Barone with an exception earlier. And if there would be an appeal about granting a similar exception, it would likely be heard there."
Iowa State coach Tim Floyd said whether Big 12 officials granted exceptions to Barone and maybe Axtell was none of his business.
"The administrators don't need me telling them how to run the league, and I don't need them telling me how to coach." Floyd said. "But if they made more exceptions to the rule, that would be a good change for all of us, not just Kansas."

For only the third time this season, the Kansas softball team swept its opponent in a doubleheader.
The Jayhawks won both games (7-2, 3-2) against the Wichita State Shockers yesterday at Jayhawk Field, avenging a split doubleheader against the Shockers two weeks ago.
"Today, I think we basically felt like we were in control the whole game," said second base Nezli Leathers.
Five Jayhawks recorded hits in the first game. Shortstop Michelle Hubler led the way, posting two runs and two RBI on a 3-for 3 hitting performance.
After falling in 1-0 in the first inning, the Jayhawks tied the Shockers in the bottom of the second and never trailed again.
Three doubles — by Hubler, left fielder Sara Holland and second baseman Katie Malone — led to three Kansas runs in the bottom of the third inning, giving the Hawks their first lead of the day 3-1.
Holland's double was her 15th of the season, giving her the lead in the Big 12 Conference for doubles this season. She now has 58 in her career, the most in Kansas history.
The Jayhawks took advantage of three Shocker errors in the fourth inning to pick up three more runs and gain a 7-1 lead.
Despite an error by Hubler in the fifth inning leading to an unearned run, pitcher Jessi Kowal picked up the 7-2 win and improved her record to 11-15.
Pitcher Courtney Wilson started the second game for the Jayhawks in her second appearance this season. Wilson had a wrist injury that required surgery last season, but she said she felt good yesterday.
The Shockers scored first in the second game. Leathers dropped a pop-up that appeared to be in foul territory, but the official called it a fair ball. The Shockers picked up an unearned run on the only Jayhawk error of the game.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (April 15). Travel beckons this year. With a little planning, you'll be able to follow your dream. You'll know where you want to go in April. Save to get the down payment in May. Once the commitment has been made, there's nothing left but the work. Focus on that until at least September. Part of this trip is familiar, but most of it is brand new. Make friends with a person very different from yourself.
Aries: Today is an 8.
Taurus: Today is a 6.
Consult a foreigner about recent events. Some of the information you've received may be erroneous.
Check it out before you base any decisions on it. By this afternoon, the truth should be apparent. Discuss i tonight to figure out your next course of action.
There's still talk going on behind the scenes. Yesterday there was more speculation than fact. But the tides seem to be shifting. It's interesting how it's turning out. It's not quite like you expected. Stay tuned in and don't accidentally make a move in the wrong direction.
There's too much for you to do by yourself, and there's no point in trying. You'll just make the problem bigger. You need to divide this chore up among several people. Schedule a meeting this morning to figure out how. You might end up with nothing to do.
Cancer: Today is a 5.
The workload is intense, but you' re learning a great deal. There are changes under way, and you need to be alert in order to use them to your advantage. You also will need to use skills you' re learning. It will take years to master them, and this is good opportunity to practice.
Leo: Today is a 9.
Finally, conditions are getting better. You're in a good mood, and so is the one you love. If you don't have a sweetheart, you could be in for a big surprise. Hang around a place you enjoy being. That's your best bet for meeting someone you'll enjoy being with
Virgo: Today is a 5.
You and your mate — and any roommates you might have — are stirring ups at home. It's disruptive, but exciting. This might be expensive, but don't let that stop you. Go ahead and make your dreams come true.
Scorpio; Today is a 5.
Sagittarius: Today is an 8.
Libra: Today is an 8.
A surprising development this morning really could tickle your funny bone. Don't create a disruption. There's still work to be done, and you are a rather high-profile character. People tend to watch what you're doing simply because you're so cute.
Capricorn: Today is a 5.
Aquarius: Today is a 7.
A co-worker you've been hassling with seems to have the advantage. The good news is that more money is coming in soon. All the effort you've been putting in lately is starting to be acknowledged. Meanwhile, use your resources and energy to help a friend in need.
One thing you're learning is how to get more money.
Actually, even if you had plenty, you'd find ways to spend more. That's because you have big ideas. You don't need a loan. You need a federal grant. And that could be exactly what you're learning how to get. If not, why not?
You're much stronger, and it looks like you're winning. Don't lose track of what you're doing. Gather all the information you can to support your idea. The details will do the convincing. Although your opinions are persuasive, they're not enough.
A secret you've been looking for is starting to emerge. This actually could be a treasure, but it might simply be a memory you've been repressing. If you've been wondering why you behave a certain way, maybe you're about to find out.
P
Pisces: Today is a 6.
R
Others rely on you when the going gets tough. That's because you're sympathetic and always seem to try to help others. That's going to be much appreciated now. Actually, all you have to do is help the others settle down, and they will solve their problems.

Former champion coach to start football program
BOCA RATON, Fla. — Howard Schnelllenberger, who coached Miami to its first national championship in 1983, will help Florida Atlantic launch a football program. Not as a coach, though.
"He'll be in charge of putting together a booster club of individuals and doing anything he needs to do to get the capital to put together a football program," said Doug Applebaugh, a school spokesman.
"The deal is signed. He is official. Schnellenberger will start here on May 1," Applebaugh said.
Schnellenberger's title is special assistant to the director of athletics for football operations.

NEW YORK — Rick Tocchet of the Phoenix Coyotes drew a two-game suspension from the NHL yesterday, bringing the total number of games he has been penalized this season to nine.
Tocchet also was fined $1,000 for his latest infraction, a high-stick attack on Scott Pellerin of the St. Louis Blues on April 11. Tochet was assessed a match penalty for deliberate injury on the play, during which he hit Pellerin in the mouth.

Tocchet served one game of the suspension by missing a game Sunday. To complete it, he sat out the Coyotes' home

BYU suspends players for marijuana possession
PROVO, Utah — Two Brigham Young basketball players, including leading scorer Ron Sellezle, were thrown off the team after being accused of marijuana possession.
Sellezate and sophomore guard Michael Garrett received one-year suspensions for violating the school's honor code.
The university, owned by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, enforces a strict code all students must sign. It prohibits smoking, drinking, drug use, academic dishonesty and premarital sex.
Sellezle, already redshirted one year, will miss his senior season, ending his BYU career after just 22 games. He could transfer to a school in Division II or lower if he wishes to play his senior season.
Garrett, who sat out last season,
will transfer to a junior college.
"We were prepared for whatever decision was made," said BYU coach Steve Cleveland, who coached both players at Fresno City College during the 1996-97 season.
The BYU Honor Code Office recommended the yearlong suspension this month after the players were cited for marijuana possession March 16. Provo police had responded to a complaint about noise from the players' apartment
Sellezle later was charged with ilegal drug possession and was scheduled to appear in court today. Garrett was not charged.
"We decided not to file charges on Mr. Garrett because the officers, I don't believe, saw him smoking marijuana," said prosecutor Steve Schreiner, who played basketball at BYU from 1989-1991.

3 Jayhawks spend offseason dealing with knee surgeries
By Kevin C. Wilson Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas women's basketball team is knee-deep in injuries this offseason.
Guard Suzi Raymant, center Nikki White and guard Casey Pruitt each have injured their left knees. All require surgery.
Raymant, who was the Jayhawks' second-leading scorer last season with 14.1 points per game, will undergo surgery today to repair a torn ACL, a type of ligament, in her left knee. Raymant was injured last Thursday evening in a pick-up game at Allen Field House.
Assistant athletic trainer Carol Jarosky said that the rehabilitation for such an injury would take four to six months and that Raymant should be ready to compete at the beginning of the 1988-99 season.
"It's a challenging rehab, but I have no doubt that Suzi will be
back at 100 percent by the beginning of the season," Jarosky said. "She will be working on range of motion and muscle strengthening immediately following surgery."
Jarosky said
Pruitt: Knee surgery
Friday will remove
screws from earlip.
Jarosky said that Raymant had a good attitude about the surgery.
Coach Marian Washington said that Raymant's injury would be a challenge.
"It's the kind of injury that happens when you fully extend on your knee and you come down on it wrong." Washington said. "She'll be ready for next year, though."
White, who has had pain in both of her knees for years, had surgery
on Monday to remove cartilage from her left knee. The cartilage will be tested and regrown so that it can be replaced in a second surgery, scheduled for June.

Jarosky said that everything went as planned with Monday's surgery and that White already was preparing for rehabilitation.

Washington said that White likely would be redshirted for the 1998-99 season.
"She could be ready as early as January, but unless we really need her, I want her to spend the entire year rebuilding her knee," Washington said. "That would give her
three more quality years at Kansas as well."

surgeries. She underwent three knee surgeries before her freshman season at Kansas and was forced to redshift the 1996-97 season to rehabilitate.
Jarosky said that Puitt's latest surgery would not be a major undertaking.
"It's just a cleanup job," Jarosky said. "She should be back on the court in one to two weeks."
Trailblazer heating up on the court
Rasheed Wallace starting to meet high expectations
The Associated Press
PORTLAND, Ore. — He found his son and lost his grandfather. He struggled with a new position and often wup up the fourth option on a team loaded with players who love to shoot.
The season has been uneven for Rasheed Wallace. Lately, though, he has scored numbers that befit the six-year, $80 million contract he signed before the season.
Going into last night's game with Sacramento, Wallace averaged 21.6 points and shot 61 percent from the field in the seven games since he took four games off for his grandfather's funeral.
Wallace shrugs off his hot streak and says it's only because Arvydas Sabonius has been out with a sore hip.
"I was just taking Sabonis' shots," he said. "It was probably six *r* seven shots a game."
It's the kind of production fans always expected of Wallace, who
was an immediate hit in Portland after the trade that brought him from Washington before the start of the 1966-97 season.
He averaged 15 points, shot 56 percent and was a leading contender for the NBA's most improved player award.
The Blazers made him the highest-paid player in team history. He is on the cover of the team's media guide and is considered the anchor of the franchise.
His recent big games have moved his scoring average up to 14.7 points a game, and he is among the league leaders in field goal percentage at .533.
Solid numbers — but not the spectacular ones predicted for him. Perhaps, as point guard Damon Stoudamire said, there are other ways to measure Wallace's value.
"He's probably one of the highest leapers in this league, and then his wingspan is so long. He's able to do a lot of things." Stoudamire said. "He's the type of player who is going to do what it takes to win, so shots sometimes are not as much of a concern. I don't think you can really judge if he has a good game or a bad game by how
BLAZERS
many points he scores."
Coach Mike Dunleavy moved the 6-foot-11 former North Carolina star to small forward to make room for free agent Brian Grant. The two seemed to have trouble getting used to playing together. Then Grant got hurt, forcing Wallace back inside.
Lately, with Sabonis out, Wallace and Grant have thrived.
"Rasheed has the ability to be a big scorer," Dunleave said. "A lot of it is at times he's been a little passive and tried to move the basketball a little more, not really caring about scoring."
Wallace has benefited from the arrival of Stoudamire, who is less inclined to shoot than his predecessor Kenny Anderson and loves lobbing the ball toward the basket for the slams that Wallace does as spectacularly as anyone in the NBA.
"That's cool with us because we have a lot of guys who can jump." Wallace said. "They've got to respect Damon at the point. He can shoot and he's court-savvy.
Wallace, only 23 in his third NBA campaign, would be just completing his rookie season had he stayed at North Carolina for four years.
"He has the potential to be one of the better big men in this league," Stoudamire said. "He's shown a lot of flashes. He just doesn't get the publicity of some of the other guys or is asked to do as much as some of the other guys. But he's just as capable."
That's a plus for us."
Wallace must fight a tendency to draw technical fouls. He stays loose on his weekly radio show, where he features his favorite rap music.
At home are three young boys: his fiancee's 10-year-old son, the couple's 10-month-old son, and Wallace's 2-year-old son Ishmail.
Ishmiel and his father were reunited last Christmas after private investigators finally tracked down the child's mother, who had gone into hiding rather than allowing Wallace visitation rights. He since has been given custody of the boy.
Life at home can get a little crazy.
"Sometimes it gets off the hook," Wallace said. "But other than that it's nice."
Investigations involve teammates, woman attending house party
Players questioned in assault complaint
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — There are no imminent plans to arrest basketball players Juwan Howard and Chris Webber, and police say they need more time to investigate the sexual assault complaint involving the Washington Wizards teammates.
Police Chief Garole Mehlring of Montgomery County, Md., responded yesterday to remarks by Howard's lawyer. Attorney Billy Martin disclosed details Monday of his own investigation because of rumors that police wanted to arrest his client.
A Connecticut woman contends she was assaulted April 6 at Howard's suburban Maryland house during a party. Howard and Webber both attended. Neither has been charged, and a grand jury is to hear the case tomorrow.
"The police department ... seeks nothing more and nothing less than a complete and impartial investigation," Mehrling said. "Any assertions that there is a predisposition to make an arrest before that process runs
its course is baseless."
Mehrling said her department still was trying to locate and interview the 40 or so
people, many from out of state, who were at the party. She said an undetermined amount of time was needed to complete the investigation.
"We keep hearing rumors that Montgomery County would like to arrest Juwan, at least on the
حج
Martin had urged police to not rush to judgment.
"The police department... seeks nothing more and nothing less than a complete and impartial investigation. Any assertions that there is a pre-disposition to make an arrest before that process runs its course is baseless."
Martin also tried to turn the focus onto the accuser. He said his investigation had turned up someone who was an eyewitness to a sex act between the Connecticut woman and a person Martin wished not to name at this time. He added that the act was initiated by the woman.
evidence that they have," he said.
He gave few other details and did not say if the sex act involved Howard or Webber.
Details of the woman's accusations have not been released

because the case documents are sealed.
Webber and Howard have not met with police. Martin, speaking only on Howard's behalf, said he didn't believe it was in his client's best interest to allow him to be questioned.
Webber's lawyers did not return calls yesterday.
The investigation appears to have taken its toll on the Wizards, who were 0-3 and on the brink of elimination from the playoff race entering last night's game at New York.

Boston race makes room for disabled athletes
The Associated Press
LONG BEACH, N.Y. — Helen Hines was sitting in a chair, telling high school students about her 20-year battle with multiple sclerosis. Suddenly, her legs went numb.
As she was speaking, the degenerative nerve disease robbed her of all feeling below her thighs.
And the Boston Marathon was only a month away.
with the determination that led her across the finish line of 24 previous marathons, Hines brushed aside self pity: Two days later she went out for a run.
"When you have MS you do these things while you can," she said.
Hines, whose legs still work although she can't feel them, and about 20 other disabled athletes will join 11,500 other runners Monday for the 102nd annual Boston Marathon.
"My doctor lets me do two marathons a year. Boston will be my third, but there is no way I'm going to miss it," said Hines, a 50-year-old former physical education teacher.
Boston did not always have room for runners like Hines. Unlike the New York City Marathon, which resembles a huge, sweaty party, Boston traditionally has been a race for elite athletes, a race unreceptive to runners with disabilities.
When two disabled athletes tried to have Boston's stringent qualifying requirements waived 20 years ago, their requests were dismissed.
"I don't want to be cruel, but this is a marathon race for runners. It's not a three-ring circus," said
Boston Athletic Association official Jock Semple at the time.
About five years ago, with a surge in the number of disabled runners, Boston began to waive the time requirement for a few of competitors under an agreement with the Achilles Track Club, a New York-based international organization for disabled runners.
"We still are the most elite of the races, and that's very important," said Guy Morse, Boston's race director. "But we do try to have a heart."
About 20 Achilles members are allowed to run this year with the recommendation that they be able to finish in about 4:20. After a minor controversy this year, several slower disabled runners were allowed to begin the marathon two hours before the start.
Boston also stages a 22-year-old wheelchair marathon that this year will include 60 of the world's top wheelchair racers.
"Boston has always had the fastest runners, and I hope it always will, but it becomes more of a people's race that spectators can relate to when there are some interesting and unusual stories in the middle and back of the pack," said Amby Burfoot, editor of Runner's World magazine and the winner of the 1968 Boston Marathon.
Hines' story began when she developed multiple sclerosis two decades ago. She found herself paralyzed from the waist down and was given little hope of walking again.
After nearly 10 years of rehabilitation and exercise, she ran her
Things have changed.
first marathon. And though she stakes gingerly and drags her left leg slightly, she still goes out for a long run every day.
For a recent run along the boardwalk in Long Beach, she wore knee straps and an ankle brace. She wore a large plastic collar to immobilize her neck during six months of training. She has finished several marathons with volunteers holding up her head because her neck muscles simply gave out.
"You don't know at what point you're going to get to where you're going to say, 'I shouldn't have done that,'" she said.
Some of the Achilles runners see the marathon as a challenge to overcome disabilities; others just want to get in shape.
Mass., on Monday for the sheer thrill of willing his body to run 26.2 miles. Glaucoma made him legally blind since birth.
Richard Chen will take off from the starting line in Hopkinton.
"I just don't want to trip over anything." he said.
During the race, Chen will be tethered to a friend with a shoelace.
During training, however, the 60-year-old Harvard law student ran alone. After several close encounters with lamp poles, Chen abandoned his route along Boston's Charles River in favor of Harvard's running track. But no place is completely safe — Chen crashed into a blurry line of hurdles on the track.
Hines once broke her wrist falling during a training run, and she ripped ankle tendons in the middle of a marathon. She finished anyway.

THE NFL DRAFT
NFL
NFL draft not an exact science
By Dave Goldberg The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Seven years later, the names Dan McGwire, Todd Marinovich and Brett Favre stand out of the 1991 NFL draft, one of the quirkiest ever.
Yes, that Brett Favre, taken 33rd overall, the sixth pick in the second round by the Atlanta Falcons and the third quarterback selected. Taken before him was McGwire, by the Seahawks, and Marinovich, who went to the Raiders.
McGwire is out of football now, free to watch brother Mark hit home runs, and so is Marinovich, a gamble by owner Al Davis that failed.
They're not the only ones
With the class of 1991 at its maturity, nine of the 27 players taken in the first round are no longer in the league, while others struggle to hang on.
"About a third of the first-rounders every year turn out to be what you think they'll be and a third turn out to be outright busts," said Bill Polian, new president of the Indianapolis Colts and the man who built Super Bowl teams in Buffalo and an instant contender in expansion Carolina. "We're all fallible."
John Butter, Buffalo's general manager, called drafts a cran shoot.
"You try to do your best, but you rarely can make an absolute out-and projection of how a player will turn out," said Butler, who did well in '91 with defensive back Henry Jones in the first round and defensive end Phil Hansen in the second.
The lower rounds in 191 produced many Pro-Bowl players, led by Favre, the three-time MVP.
Others include: running back Ricky Watters by San Francisco (42nd overall); Aeneas Williams (59, Cardinals); linebacker Mo Lewis (62, Jets); wide receiver Jake Reed (68, Minnesota); and tackle Erkli Williams (70, Dallas), who looked like a Hall of Famer until he tore his knee in an auto accident.
Oilers); William Thomas (104, Eagles); and Bryan Cox (113, Dolphins). Plus Merton Hanks (122, 48ers), perhaps the NFL's best free safety; tight end Ben Coates (124, Patriots); wide receiver Michael Jackson (131, Cleveland); defensive linemen Michael Sinclair (153, Seattle) and Leon Lett (173, Dallas); and wide receiver Keenan McCardell (326, Washington), in the 12th and final round.
And more: Marcus Robertson (102).
None of this is unusual.
"Sometimes it just takes time," said Tampa Bay coach Tony Dungy, who was Minnesota's defensive coordinator when the Vikings drafted Reed. "I can remember after his second year, he hadn't done much, and we wondered if he had a future."
Besides producing great players from lower rounds, the draft stands out because of Marinovich, McGwire and Favre.
Ron Wolf, now Green Bay's general manager, was the personnel director for the New York Jets that year and loved Favre. But the Jets had used their first pick to take Rob Moore in the previous summer's supplemental draft and failed to move up the one pick in the second round they needed to get him.
Wolf's revenge?
The next year he moved to Green Bay and pried Favre away from the Falcons, who didn't like the quarterback's lifestyle.
In fact, that 1991 draft reflects why the Falcons often have been in the lower half of the NFL standings.
Atlanta's first pick, third overall,
was Bruce Pickens, a cornerback from
Nebraska, who ended up playing five seasons in the NFL with four
different teams and intercepting just
two passes. But Atlanta was not the
only team to make a mistake. The
Pittsburgh Steelers, whose recent
draft have been outstanding, used
the 15th pick of the first round on
Huey Richardson, a defensive
line/backer from Florida.
games with the Redskins and Jets in 1992. Then he was gone, a classic workout warrior who was lost in games.
Richardson played five games with the Steelers, was cut and played 11
It was a strange draft from the start. Rocket Ismail of Notre Dame was the consensus No.1 pick, but he went to Canada. First overall was Russell Maryland, taken by Dallas. He's been solid — but not a star.
The best pick? Probably No. 10, Herman Moore, by Detroit, one of the top three or four receivers in the NFL.
But for every Moore, there was a Stan Thomas, an offensive lineman from Texas taken 20th overall by the Bears. He played four seasons but lasted that long only because he was a first-round pick — teams often figure that there must be something there if he went so high.
"I'll always pick up someone else's first-rounder who flopped," Davis said.
The team that does that the most is the Raiders.
In 1991, Davis picked the flop — Marinovich, whose father Marv played for the Raiders in 1965, became a scout and assistant coach for the team, then began raising his son from age 4 to play quarterback in the NFL.
No other team would have wasted a first-round pick on Marinovich, who came out of Southern Cal already burdened with drug problems. He lasted two seasons, completing 104 of 205 passes for 1,345 yards, eight touchdowns and nine interceptions before quitting - a burnout at 23.
As for Favre, he sat for a year in Atlanta.
When Wolf joined the Packers late in 1991, he approached Ken Herok, then the Falcons' general manager. Herock brought in Jerry Glanville, then the head coach, and June Jones, then offensive coordinator.
The vote was 2-1 to trade Favre for a No. 1 in 1992 that Atlanta turned into offensive tackle Bob Whitfield. Whitfield's a nice player, but Favre is ... Brett Favre.
Yes, the draft is an inexact science.

Omission found on Student Senate election ballots; CLAS candidate not named on list
By Melissa Ngo
mngo@kanson.com
Kansas staff writer
Maria Abatoglou, Delta Force candidate for a Liberal Arts and Sciences seat, was left off the ballot for the Student Senate elections.
The polls opened at 8 a.m., and the mistake was discovered at 9:30 a.m. Posters stating Abatjoglou should be written in were put at all polling sites half an hour later
"Delta Force was allowed to check the ballots before they were printed," said Brad Finkeldei, Elections Commission chairman. "It's both our faults because neither group caught the mistake."
Abatijoglou: Frustrated by efforts to remedy problem
Abatjoglou said she was frustrated about how the commission had handled the mistake.
"I understand that human errors occur," she said. "My problem is that when it was brought to their notice, something substantial was not done until 2 p.m."
At 1:30 p.m., poll workers were told to tell CLAS voters that Abatjoglou was a candidate. At 2:15 p.m., the commission and poll workers began to handwrite Abatjoglou's name onto the ballots.
"I went and policed every poll site, and I shouldn't have to do that," Abatjoglou said. "After poll workers were told to tell voters that I was a candidate. I didn't see workers at two sites saving anything about it."
Abatjoglou said she also was frustrated that she had not received an apology from the commission.
Finkeldei said he had not been able to talk to Abatjoglou and therefore, could not have apologized to her.
"I offer the apology of the Elections Commission," he said. "We were doing our best to get the hired workers to do what was asked, but it is hard."
Emily Heath, Delta Force candidate for student body president, checked the ballots before the ballots were printed.
"It's partially our fault." Heath said. "We didn't think that we would have to check for the candidates to be on the ballots. We checked for spelling errors."
A QUESTION OF

Life & Death
STORY BY GERRY DOYLE GRAPHICS BY ANDREW RO'FIRBACK AND JASON BENAVIDES
THE AMAZING POETRY
GARY KLEYPAS
Some time in the next century according to the national average, about 2006 Gary Kleypas will be taken from his cell in Lansing Correctional Facility. Clad in an orange jumpsuit, he will stand. A warden will lead him from his bed, his stainless steel toilet, the concrete walls that have housed him. A team of Department of Corrections employees will surround him. Most likely, restraints will be unnecessary because of the sedatives he will have been given a few hours earlier.
Then this group will take a short walk along the last 20 minutes of Kleypas' life.
Truman Capote made Kansas' executions famous in his novel "In Cold Blood" when he described the execution of Richard Hickock, who with Perry Smith was convicted of multiple murders in Kansas in 1961.
Unlike Capote's grim scene of the state's most notorious execution, Kleypas' final moments will be, death penalty proponents say, a good way to die.
The gallows that snapped Hickock's and Smith's necks now lies in a storehouse of the Kansas State Historical Society in Topeka.
The pine boards — rough, gray and cold — are stacked indifferently on top of each other, lines worn where they had fit together. An eye bolt about as thick as a child's wrist juts menacingly from a thick beam. It is rusted, but closer inspection shows where the rope had rubbed against the unyielding steel.
The stairs still are recognizable, still bolted together, still facing the trapdoor. Illuminated by the clean, fluorescent lights of the warehouse, the 12 steps seem benign. The unlucky 13th step is the actual platform.
The trapdoor leans upright at the far end of the pile of boards. The steel, bifold doors have been painted black. They are scuffed by the feet of 25 men and are dusty from 33 idle years.
INTO THE CHAMBER
Kleypas and the posse of guards and officials — and maybe a chaplain — will walk into the death chamber where he will spend the last 15 minutes of his life. Directly ahead, through a doorway, a gurney will wait. To the left, on the other side of a cinder block and concrete wall, the execution witnesses will be seated. When the curtains part, they will watch as Kleypas dies.
Kansas' death penalty gained new life in 1994 after the murder of 19-year-old Stephanie Schmidt sparked cries for retribution from Schmidt's family and voters throughout the state.
Donald Ray Gideon, still alive, is serving 99 years and eight months in the El Dorado Correctional Facility for raping, sodomizing and finally strangling Schmidt to death.
"Id like to say justice was served, but until we have the death penalty, I don't think it can be," said Gene Schmidt, Stephanie's father, after Gideon was sentenced.
Schmidt's words pushed a new death penalty bill, sponsored by Rep. Greg Packer of Topeka, onto the House floor. The Senate passed its own, far more restrictive version of the bill; a 67-58 vote made that bill law.
Then-Gov. Joan Finney opposed the death
penalty but allowed it to become law without her signature. Kansas now can execute prisoners by lethal injection.
Jeff Moots, a lawyer with the Kansas Board of Indigent Defense's Death Penalty Defense Unit, was one of Kleypas' defense attorneys. Although Kleypas was convicted and sentenced to die by both jury and judge for stabbing a 20-year-old Pittsburgh State University student to death, Moots said that Kansas' new law would be challenged and probably wouldn't hold up — at least at first.
It would be like New Jersey's first years with a new death penalty law, he predicted.
"Their first 30 or 31 cases were reversed," Moots said. "We're just learning."
He said that appeals would center around many different constitutional issues.
The issue of whether the death penalty is cruel and unusual punishment will be at stake, Moots said. Although lethal injection sounds humane and clean, there are problems with it, just as there are with the electric chair, the gas chamber and even hanging.
The state still is considering the best way to go about killing someone by lethal injection, said Bill Miskel, public information officer for the Kansas Department of Corrections.
Condemned prisoners will be held at El Dorado Correctional Facility. They will be kept in administrative segregation, separated from everything but their cell walls throughout much of the day.
"The general population gets out-of-cell time." Miskell said. "But prisoners in administrative segregation are in their cells 23 hours a day."
Kleypas will be transferred to the Lansing Correctional Facility a few days before he is scheduled to die.
The holding area and death chamber are under construction at Lansing now, said Mike Gaito, who is in charge of capital improvements and facilities maintenance for the department of corrections. Specific blueprints
A separate execution facility will ease the stress on prison personnel. After spending years tending to a man who has been sentenced to death, a warden or guard might have a hard time executing someone he or she had come to know well.

One more day remains for voting, campaigning and controversy. The first day of Student Senate elections included plenty of all three.
A potential campaign violation turned up at the Daisy Hill polling site yesterday evening. Audrey Nogle, elections commissioner, said she would suggest to the elections hearing board that it fine the Campus Cause coalition for having campaign posters visible from the polling site.
Yesterdav's elections included:
The elections code states that no campaign materials are allowed to be visible or audible from a rolling site.
When the polling site opened at 4 p.m., Nogle gave Campus Cause and Delta Force one hour to remove posters displayed in the windows of Lewis Hall. At 5 p.m., Nogle counted six Campus Cause posters but none from Delta Force.
Brenda Chung, Delta Force candidate for a
Nogle said that because of the difficulty of controlling poster display, she thought it was not a good idea to have polling sites at residence halls. She said that this was a severe violation and that each coalition had been warned.
Nunemaker seat, and John Vaglio, Campus Cause candidate for a residential seat, worked to take down the posters before the 5 p.m. deadline. Chung is a resident assistant at Lewis Hall, and Vaglio is one at Templin Hall.
"Everybody knew that this was the big issue as to why we didn't have polling sights here in the past." Nogle said.
The flier contained excerpts from the Student Senate listserv written by three
A flier subtitled, "What Delta Force Doesn't Want You To Know" was posted in several fraternity houses Tuesday. It was written by a group calling itself The Commission Advocating Candidate Information. Neither coalition leader knew who wrote the flier.

College Assembly looks for students with CLAS
College Assembly, the decision-making body for the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, is accepting applications for 1.20 student representatives to serve next year.
The application deadline is 5 p.m. tomorrow. Students enrolled in the college can pick up applications in 109 Strong Hall.
"If students have something they'd like to see changed, then College Assembly is a good place to attempt to make those changes," said Nancy Krische, secretary for CLAS Undergraduate Services.
Krishe said students could make a difference in the college policy.
"They would have a vote on everything from curricular changes to degree changes — any policy that comes up, including the diversity requirement." Krische said.
student representatives receive an agenda about two weeks before each College Assembly meeting. The assembly meets about five times throughout the school year, Krische said.
Of the 120 representatives, three students will be elected to serve on the Committee on Undergraduate Studies and Advising, a standing committee in the College Assembly.
Krische said the CUSA student representatives would have a chance to enter the ground floor of policy making.
"CUSA is the first step of any proposal for changes to policy," Krische said. "Once CUSA approves a change, it goes to College Assembly for approval by the full assembly."

Tornado victims to receive $3.2 million in federal aid
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. — Standing amid the rubble and ruin of central Alabama's deadliest tornadoes, President Clinton offered the victims words of encouragement and $3.2 million in federal aid.
"We have to give people a way to look forward to tomorrow — a project, work to do, something that can be done to make a difference," Clinton said yesterday after touring a flattened neighborhood in McDonald Chapel, a subdivision of Birmingham.
Clinton said the Labor Department would make available $3.2 million in emergency funds to Alabama to create temporary jobs for cleaning up the areas of Jefferson, St.
Clair and Tuscaloosa counties hit April 8 by tomadores.
his nands clasped behind his back and head bowed, the president slowly picked his way around heaps of twisted metal and piles of shattered boards that used to be homes. Severed tree trunks stood nearby, grotesque markers of a tomato that killed 33 people, most in the outskirts of Birmingham.
Clinton urged the community to look to the future.
"The process of restoration has begun because the most important thing you have—your spirit—was not destroyed," Clinton said.
Tax-time procrastinators pack nation's post offices
People who waited until the last minute to file their taxes yesterday made no apologies for their procrastination, trudging into post offices across the country as jazz music, back rubs and doughnuts helped ease their pain.
Tax forms had to be postmarked by midnight, and many post offices expected long lines as procrastinators send an estimated 44 million federal and state tax forms in the one day.
Many post offices stayed open late and offered amenities such as curbside pickup of forms, free coffee and tax advice.
The post office in Saratoga Springs, N.Y., had a local choral group and had the jazz band Clarinet Marmalade serenading customers. A blues band belted out tunes in Springfield, Mass., where several post-masters planned to perform in a conga line of dancing rains.
In Idaho, there actually is a place where people can beat the system.
The 500 residents of New Meadows get to file up until 8 a.m. on April 16 because its one daily mail pickup is at 2:45 p.m. Gretchen Croft went to the Morgantown, W.Va., post office in search of an extension form, saying it was her husband's job
to do their taxes
"We feel like we're doing our part as Americans filing late," she said jokingly. "Since we're getting money back, they can keep the interest a little longer. We're just being good Americans."
INTERNATIONAL Pro-British campaign threatens Ireland accord
BELFAST, Northern Ireland — The Rev. Ian Paisley, who has wrecked past efforts at compromise in Northern Ireland, launched his campaign yesterday for Protestant voters to reject a compromise peace accord.
Paisley asserted that the agreement would mean the destruction of Northern Ireland's 77-year-old union with Britain and send the country on the way to a united Ireland.
"This is a struggle for the very life's blood of the union and the future of our province," he declared at the start of his campaign to mobilize Protestant opinion against the May 22 referendum.
A majority vote in favor the referendum is required from this territory of 1.6 million people — 55 percent of them pro-British Protestants, 40 percent Irish Catholics — for the accord, which was achieved Friday after 22 months of negotiations, to take effect.
The British and Irish governments are treating Paisley's Democratic Unionist Party, which withdrew from the negotiations last year after the IRA-allied Sinn Fein party gained admission, as a serious threat to make the vote a close call.
The agreement would create an elected Northern Ireland Assembly that cooperates formally with the Irish Republic.
Paisley denounced Ulster Unionist leader David Trimble, leader of Northern Ireland's largest political party, for endorsing the accord.

Delta Force members who are not candidates on this year's ballot and Kip Curtis, New York City graduate student. All of the quotations about the greek community expressed negativity.
Scott Kaiser, Campus Cause vice presidential candidate, said his coalition was not involved in the distribution of the file
"We don't need to be negative," he said. "Being negative is reaction. We take action."
Emily Heath, Delta Force presidential candidate, said Delta Force had both Greek and nongreek candidates. She also denounced the anonymous authors of the filer.
"Just because you're not greek doesn't mean you're anti-greek," she said. "If you're going to write something like that, at least come out and say who you are."
- Good weather equals good voter turnout
It was a bit breezy and temperatures could have been higher, but the sun was shining, campus was dry and the students were voting.
Brad Finkeldei, elections commission chairman, said unofficially that after one day of elections, voter turnout appeared to be higher than last year's first-day results.
Kaiser said he thought that students were more interested in elections this year and that increased awareness combined with favorable weather conditions made for more work for those collecting ballots.
Tomorrow's weather does not look as promising.
There will be a bit of a chill in the air, with cloudy conditions and a predicted high of 49 degrees.
Heath said she thought bad weather would hurt her coalition's chances of winning. She said the die-hard supporters would be at the polls regardless of weather, but the marginal supporters of Delta Force may not be as likely to vote if it was cold or rainy.
"I feel a majority of this campus wants to see us in office, but a lot of them have never voted," Heath said.

Kansas alum wants his MTV but MTV says no
By Tamara Miller
tiller@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Who needs MTV anyway?
David Day, a 1997 University of Kansas graduate in journalism, competed last night in MTV's Video Jock contest but failed to become one of five finalists. Day had been one of 10 semifinalists out of 4,000 contenders who auditioned to be an MTV VJ. The show aired at 5 last night, and Day's debut attracted attention
from many journalism faculty and students.
Gary Hawke, general manager of KJHK, said Day had what it took to be on MTV.
"I think he's the kind of guy that the MTV age
group would like." he said.
CAMERON
Day: 1997 graduate auditioned for Video Jack position
Day worked for KJHK, the University's radio station, throughout college and was the program director his senior year. He also was the host of the show Friday Freebie.
Hawke said Day's success in New York could be attributed to his adventurous spirit and self-confidence.
"He's a New York kind of guy from Wichita," he said.
Hawke said Day's experience
"I think it comes down to the fact that when students go through the school, they learn enough to compete," he said.
with KJHK and the University's journalism school prepared the alumnus for the contest.
During his college career, Day was a quirky student who was a little absent-minded, said Carol Holstead, associate professor of journalism.
Day used to wear a stocking cap because he felt naked without it.
One day, he stayed after in Holstead's class climbing around the room looking for his missing cap. "I said 'It's on your head, David.'" she said.
Holstad said Day was a talented magazine student who made a prototype of a music magazine while in her magazine design class.
“He always wanted to work for a big music magazine,” she said. “I’m a little surprised and curious how he got involved in this.”
Day would be a good addition to many MTV shows, said Brad Shanks, Kansas City, Mo., senior. Shanks worked with Day on KJHK and said Day would be a good addition to MTV's Real World or Road Rules shows. However, Shanks said Day's sarcasm also would make him a good VJ.
"It would be really funny to see him introduce all these bands he doesn't even like," he said.
Day was not reached for comment.
GradEx committee selects seven members for next year
By Susie Gura
sgura@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Student Senate campaigning continues today but elections are over for members running for the Graduate Executive Committee of Graduate Affairs.
Graduate Affairs held a meeting last night in the International Room of the Kansas Union. During the meeting GradEx members for next year were elected.
GradEx is the Executive Committee of the Student Senate Graduate Affairs committee. GradEx reports to both Student Senate and the graduate school.
It acts as a representative committee for the graduate and professional assembly.
"It is our duty to find out issues that concern graduate students and to also find out ways to address them," said Bill Stuart, graduate teaching assistant in communications.
Stuart said it was important to find graduate students to sit on GradEx and various committees to voice the concerns of graduate students.
Christine Robinson, GTA in sociology was a member of GradEx last year and was elected again this year.
"As a graduate student I think it is important to advocate on behalf of graduate students," Robinson said.
Only seven people were nominated for the seven positions,but a vote was still held.
"I think the election went very well and would like more participation from graduate students across the board," said Sheryl Adelman, executive director of Graduate and Professional Association.
The new members of GradEx are Stuart; Robinson; Konnie Leffler, GTA in humanities and Western Civilization; Gary Johnson, graduate research assistant in political science and government; Shannon Tauscher, Lawrence graduate student; Adrian Barradell, GTA in German; and Julie Davis. GTA in communications.
Barradell and Davis are the only new members of the committee.
"I wanted to get involved in the University," Barradell said. "I also wanted to voice the concerns of international students."
"It is our duty to find out issues that concern graduate students and to also find out ways to address them."
Bill Stuart Graduate teaching assistant
The five returning members wanted to continue on the board because they felt it was an important committee.
"I think that we accomplished important things this year and last year," Leffler said. "I like being involved in a group that accomplishes things."
Adelman is pleased with the turnout at Graduate Affairs meetings, but would like to see more involvement.
"We have pretty good representation, but I would like to see more diversity."
Diverse panel debates abortion
By Sara Anderson sanderson@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
Differing perspectives formed the foundation for a panel discussion last night about abortion.
"Six Perspectives on Abortion" took place at Alderson Auditorium in the Kansas Union. Six abortion-opponent panel members discussed their views about abortion. A question-and-answer session followed the discussion. About 80 people attended the event.
Panel members included Patti Hurley, registered nurse; Joe Ertz, professor of business; Leo Barbee, pastor of the Victory Bible Church; Lisa Bellici, member of Feminists for Life; Karen Mitchell, member of Black Americans for Life; and Dawn McClelland, director of the Advice and Aid Pregnancy Center.
Jake Exman, Denver sophomore,
said the panel was interesting.
"It was informative because you rarely hear that side of the story," he
said, "It's always good to hear the other side. Everyone has their own perspective on an issue as big as this."
Panelists presented facts, statistics and personal accounts. Barbee said that two major views surrounded abortion.
"Is it life, is it a person, or is it just something to abort?" Barbee asked. "You have to make the decision — is it a child? It is a child."
"I wasn't here to debate," Page said.
"If you give misinformation to women, it hurts them more than it helps."
Andrea VanDyke, Atchison sophomore and KU Students for Life cochairwoman, said she was pleased with the event.
"It was a great turnout and a lot of great questions," she said. "The speakers were great, and their personal accounts made them more believable."

New co-major program readies students
The University of Kansas has expanded its curriculum to meet today's competitive needs. The globalization of the economy has created a demand for skills of a diverse nature. In an attempt to satisfy the consumer, the University has compiled a set of requirements for an International Studies co-major. Students will greatly benefit from its arrival, and the University should be commended.
There are four divisions in the requirement. The first requests completion of three out of four basic core courses. These courses include Pols 170, Pols 150, Geog 102 and Econ 140. The second tier gives two options from which to choose. Option one requires four semesters of language study beyond the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences requirements, and option two asks for a fourth semester
international economic sequence. The third category also has two options. One consists of a study abroad program for one semester with no less than nine credit hours. The other requires three courses to be completed in a geographic area of the student's choice. The final division requires four courses chosen from a field of specialization. The fields range from development studies to belief systems with many choices in between. The total credit hours beyond admission requirements are 33.
The program is not an independent major. It is a second major added to the student's primary degree. The program is however, an accredited bachelors of arts and not a minor. Its strength is in its ability to compliment a diverse number of majors. Every major from civil engineering to Spanish can benefit from this program. The flexibility of the co-major allows students to chose their avenues of interest.
Ryan Beasley,political science lecturer, is the director of the new project. His enthusiasm is marked by the fact that the co-major is not just window dressing.
"This co-major will expand the students career horizons in a real and tangible manner for the globalized market place." Beasley said.
Currently, 17 departments offer classes within the scope of this program. Students who want to adequately prepare for the 21st century should participate in this program. Beasley can be contacted in 411 Blake or on the net at (rbeasley@falcon.co.ukans.edu).

Feedback
KU recycling program requires student initiative
I would like to address the concerns raised by the Delta Force, Campus Cause and Independent candidates about the recycling program at the University of Kansas. As a recycling technician, I would like to educate everyone about this issue before an attempt to make changes is made. The recycling program at the University has just come into full swing this semester with the hiring of four new recycling technicians making it a total of six students who work for this department. We will be installing permanent collection centers
in most of the buildings on campus. They will provide a space for four types of materials. The collection bins must pass fire codes before they are installed which means they cannot always be located in the most convenient place. Staff and students must take the initiative to locate the collection bin to dispose of their recyclable material. We would like to have bins in every office and building, but we do not have the budget to do so. We have done our best to accommodate the students' desires but we can only do so much before it becomes the responsibility of the students and the staff to follow through on their part of the duties required by a
good recycling program. The one promise we can make to the University is that if it is put in a proper recycling container, it will be recycled. Victoria Silva is the recycling coordinator for the University, and she would love to get feedback from anyone who has suggestions or concerns. The program has a Web site that everyone is encouraged to find out more about recycling at the University. www.ehs.ukans.edu/recycling. Please work with us, so we can strengthen the program and make it something that the University can be proud of.

Editor's Note: The following Senate candidate turned in a questionnaire to the Elections Commission, but the University Daily Kansas never received it. This candidate information would have been printed Tuesday with that of the other candidates.
Wendy Butler (Independent)
Seat: Nunemaker
Hometown: Manhattan
Major: Environmental studies/pre-law Student Senate experience: I am on the Senate finance committee and a member of the legal services board for Senate.
Major: Environmental studies/ pre-law
dents' voices be heard. My experience with the committee has helped me understand how Senate works and can assist me if I am elected.
Campus activities: member of Alpha Delta Pi and have been involved in many community service activities such as the upcoming Douglas County AIDS walk.
What would you do to change Student Senate?
What can you do to best represent your constituents?
I am open to opinions, and I can help stu-
The one thing I would change in Senate would be to encourage more students to be involved. Only a small percentage of KU students pay attention to Senate, and it is making decisions that affect our campus as a whole.

Perspective
Excuse me, do you have time to read my column?
I's the most horrific time of the year You cross Wescoe Beach Just to speak with your teach
Just to speak with your team But the candidates are here
It's the most horrific time of the year (With apologies to the Christmas song, It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year.)
PARKER
Nick
Bartkoski
opinion@okansan.com
Student Senate elections are upon us. In related news, I was watching a televangelist who told me that Satan was upon us.
As a good American I should be proud to participate in the free election of government, and it's not as though I don't appreciate that right. But the Senate
elections show me that democracy just doesn't work. I foolishly try to attend my classes, and this is what I have to listen to the whole way there:
"Excuse me, have you heard about our coalition..."
"Sir, can I tell you about our exciting platforms..."
"If you don't let me tell you about what we stand for, I'll follow you home and kill your loved ones."
"Oh, my god! Are you Nick Bartkoski? Take me!" OK, so it's not all bad.
But my point is that dealing with the obnoxious candidates almost makes me long for the days when we toled under the capricious whims of a syphilitic, inbred king.
It has gotten better. My freshman year the candidates had the full right to make an impenetrable line across the sidewalk. Furthermore, if a student tried to run in fear, the candidates could hunt him or her down and shove campaign literature down their throat until they choked and were therefore no longer a member of the voting public. People lived in fear and politely listened to the candidates while casting an ever more worried eye at their large enforcers.
But last year, the oppression was over. The can didates had to stay off the sidewalk. While this didn’t totally eliminate the problem of some candidates being obnoxious, it did give students a thin safe path where they couldn’t be bothered. But it was much like walking a tightrope, if you went too
far on either side, you would be swallowed by the grasping coalition members and quite possibly never seen again.
Since Senate's motto is "Training the politicians of tomorrow that you'd like to see assassinated," we should have known that the hardcore campaigners would strike back. This year they demanded to be let back onto the sidewalk. One of their defenses seemed to center mainly on how it was unfair for them to stand in the grass, ruining their shoes. I can appreciate that. If I was going to put down the boot heel of oppression on the student body, I'd probably want high-quality footwear as well.
However, the student body locked out, and the discussion was tabled until after the election. If candidates are going to be let back on the sidewalk, it won't be until next year. It almost makes me wish I was graduating this May.
But why are we, the dispossessed, stopping at keeping them in the grass? It probably would better humanity in general if we forced them to campaign somewhere more distant, like the moon — without space suits. If I were a more charismatic leader, I'd challenge us to see that dream in the next ten years.
Furthermore, the system of punishment is way too lenient. Last year the only election code not broken was the section mandating the date of the election. Still the punishment came down to little more than writing "I will not break the Election Code" a hundred times. What are we, kindergartners? Mollycodding these idols will not solve the problems.
I think the most direct solution is to impose a mandatory sentence of death for any election code violation. I don't care if you misspell your name on the election form or if you fill out ballots for dead people. Death for all — especially if you step on the sidewalk.
If being a candidate could lead to certain death, the potential candidates would think very carefully before they decided to run for an office, and we would get the most dedicated people in Senate. The other possibility is that no one would run for Senate. In either case, the true winners would be KU students.

Bathroom doors should be the real issue in election
In these days of ubiquitous campaigning and positioning, isn't it helpful to read the coalitions' positions on the big issues? Hurrah for dichotomy of world views.
Campus Cause says the University of Kansas just isn't doing enough recycling. Delta Force wants the University to do more recycling. Delta Force says we need more minority students, while Campus Cause wants to increase minority enrollment. Ah, debate and political clash. Makes you wonder why these parties don't just share Student Senate seats.

Regardless, I made myself stop and vote yesterday. I was a little leevy of the polls.
simply because last year when I voted my KUID was switched with a fellow voter's. After that student walked away with my card, the quick-thinking elections official suggested I take the other fellow's card. He had no bus pass. I did.
A few days later I managed to track down my dopleginger and get my card back. But the entire experience left a bad taste in my mouth.
But this year I voted. I was walking across Wescoe Beach and decided, maybe if I constantly watch all of my valuables, I can get away from the polling table with them. So I did.
This year's experience was much better than the last. But I offer this word of advice which I picked up the hard way; After you vote get your sticker. No sooner had I tucked my ballots into the box than I was aggressively politicked again. It wasn't easy to convince these vote-hungry candidates that I already had cast my ballot. All I could do was wave my *Hawk Sheet* in their faces as if it were evidence of my civic responsibility.
The perennial war between the hippies and the preppies can get frustrating, especially for students at large. We long for our esteemed officials to deal with an issue we care about. Honestly, is Senate going to make one lota of difference in the Kansas legal drinking age — especially in light of recent events? And why did our Senate spend so much valuable time trying to convince the U.S. military not to bomb Iraq? Whether you agree or disagree with the idea, the thought of Senate having the audacity to think it can speak for every student's position on such a broad issue and make any kind of impact on the decision is ludicrous. So in the spirit of Travis Harrod, here's a little undocumented campaign advice, in the form of issues that resonate with the student body:
- Pencil sharpeners. There just are none. Sure, most students use pens, and most professors demand them, but there are times when a pencil is all that will do. For example, in my journalism history class, all our exams are "dot tests." That is, every answer is recorded in the form of a blob of No. 2 pencil on paper. And if your pencil breaks, you're out of luck. I learned that lesson the hard way.
Bathroom stall doors. They open the wrong way. Have you ever walked into a restroom like the ones in Murphy Hall, tried to close the door behind you, and found that you had to scale the toilet seat to make room? It makes much more sense for the doors to open out. But for some reason, no one thought of that.
Day on the Hill. From They Might Be Giants to Soul Coughing: That's quite a precipitous fall. Rumor has it that next year's contract is in a bidding war between Hanson and the Misfits from the Jem after-school cartoons.
- Ceremonial immolation of Wescoe Hall.
That's right, burn the sucker down. Classes formerly held in the building should be able to move to bars close to campus that are notably emptier since they kicked out all the underage drinkers.
On the hall's site, the University could build a swingin' Frisbee golf course. In fact, the superfluous stairwells which today serve only as bait for a location scout for a Bee Gees' video could be left intact as tortuous obstacles for the course. From Bailey Hall to the bench overlooking Malott Hall would be a killer par-3.
Campus parking: martial law. This should apply only to people who park their cars on the south side of Jayhawk Boulevard and leave the hazards flashing as if to say "I'll only be a minute!"
Apparently, the trivial 60-second errand they are running is more important to them than the line of cars backed up to Yello Sub because only one lane of traffic can get through. The solution to this extreme insensitivity comes in a glass bottle with a rag sticking out the top. One or two Molotov cocktails should keep traffic flowing copiously.
A "None of the Above" option on Senate ballots. The paucity of voter turnout is not due solely to apathy. Some students just can't put their vote behind either of the pre-selected options. It's like buying a soda on campus. Sure, you can choose among Coke, Diet Coke, Mr. Pibb and Surge, but sometimes you want a Mountain Dew. Senate has been more than vocal about this lack of choice — why not give students some freedom in political decisions as well?
The trouble with write-in candidates is that there is no focus. A thousand write-in candidates can run, but the total vote is split 1,000 ways. If every student dissatisfied with the choices available could cast the same vote, a real message could be sent.
If "NOTA" wins an election, the process would have to start over after everyone involved in the previous election is banned. Eventually, a coalition would materialize that could garner student support, rather than simply being the lesser of two evils.
rhere you have it, future politicians and lawyers, former high-school debaters, and everyone else in Senate who doesn't fit the stereotypes. The keys to victory are before you. If you follow these steps and avoid stealing one another's banners, you'll be in position to run this campus—and soon, the world.

'First CLAS' students recognized for great grades at annual reception
by Emily C. Forsyth
ehysrith@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Sally Frost Mason, dean of Liberal Arts and Sciences, held a reception yesterday to congratulate exceptional students in the college.
About 600 students were invited to the second-annual reception at the Jayhawk Room in the Kansas Union, and about 100 students attended. Students drank punch, cookie and interacted with one another.
Invited students included freshmen who have a 4.0 cumulative grade point average and students who have a 3.9 cumulative GPA.
"I thought it would be a nice way to both reward some of the best students in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences and to remind them that they are a part of the college," Frost Mason said.

After making a brief speech, Frost Mason shook each student's hand and gave out free "First CLAS" T-shirts, which were designed by Toni Brou, University graduate. Brou won $200 for the T-t shirt design.

"These kids are so bright and enthusiastic." Frost Mason said. "It's so great to shake their hands.
"Some of the students tend to think of themselves strictly as members of a department or program, and I just want to remind them that they're a part of something much bigger than that,"
Sally Frost Mason Dean of Liberal Arts and Sciences
It works so well, and I have so much fun. I'm not going to stop."
Some students said they enjoyed being recognized and meeting new people.
"It's good to get some recognition," said Marion Worrell, Lenexa junior. "It's such a huge institution, and a lot of people probably feel lost."
Frost Mason said students were a part of the college, not just individual programs.
"Some of the students tend to think of themselves strictly as members of a department or program,
and I just want to remind them that they're a part of something much bigger than that," she said.
Steve Allton, Hutchinson junior,
said the ceremony was a way to help
students feel as though they were
part of the University.
"It helps the students connect to KU by doing this," Alton said. "But, I'm sure students still connect with their individual programs more than the college as a whole."

have not been drawn up, and the only work done has been to knock out some walls in the old administrative wing.
"We'd like to be done by July, but right now we're not in a real big rush" he said.
Gaito estimated that the whole execution area would not cost more than $25,000 to $35,000.
Kansas is examining execution protocols from states like Missouri, Oklahoma, Colorado and Texas, things ranging from the movement of the condemned and witnesses to how the inmate is fed and monitored.
"We're visiting other states considering protocols that have been adopted involving treatment of prisoners, not just execution," Miskell said.
FINAL EXAMINATION
In the last 10 minutes of Kleypas' life, he will be led into a room with curtained windows. A gurney will sit in the middle of the room, about four feet off the floor, a gurney almost identical to that a sick child or an accident victim might be laid upon in a hospital — a cushioned surface covered with sterile white sheets. Brown leather straps on the stainless steel frame and IV lines nearby will make it clear, though, that this is not a hospital.
Rep. Greg Packer sits in his brown leather, high-backed chair, surrounded by the constant buzz of House proceedings. He glanced up.
from his work, his face yellowed by the filtered light from the windows next to his desk.
By using lethal injection, Kansas will avoid cruel and unusual claims, Packer said, adding that the death penalty is necessary to deter crime.
"My district wanted it overwhelmingly," he said. "And I've always thought it was a good thing."
"Right now, it has helped with litigation cost," he said. "They've pleaded for the 'hard 40.' They've given up evidence and information, and that helps put the case to bed a lot easier."
Packer said that having the death penalty helped the state without even executing anyone. Criminals, afraid of being executed, were more likely to plea bargain.
Sister Therese Bangert's Kansas City, Kan., office is in the Duchene Clinic, next to St. Mary's-St. Anthony's Church. Across the street to the south, a defunct restaurant, Griffeyfey's Burger Bar, flaunts a gaudy red, yellow, green and blue-striped sign at passing traffic.
Bangert has been working actively to abolish the death penalty in Kansas for the last 10 years. Her activism began in 1987, when former Gov. Mike Hayden used it as a plank in his campaign platform.
Bangert said that the death penalty should not be a way of venting hatred. Rather than killing the killer, states must step in to curb
"You can't take away the victims' rage, anger, hate," she said. "The state needs to be the voice of reason. The death penalty has ripples that go out and out and out, because then you ask jurors to take life, judges to take life."
violence, she said.
In the final analysis, Bangert said, executing murderers does not help anyone.
"Does this help our society?" she said. "The death penalty is such a sign of hopelessness — we will counter violence with more violence. There are grieving families on both sides of the issue. You can't say we're doing it humanely — killing someone is killing someone."
Kansas likely will follow a procedure similar to the one in Missouri, a state that has executed 17 people since 1976, six in 1995.
David Holden witnessed the Missouri execution of Larry Griffin, who was convicted of first-degree murder.
Holden wrote:
At 3:30 a.m. we were led downstairs. Everyone became rather solemn as we walked through the clean white halls, passing through several mechanized doorways, waiting for each to close with a reverberating clang behind us.
"The briefing took about five minutes, and then we were led into another room to witness the event. A stepped platform with chairs on two walls of the execution chamber faced small windows in the walls. The windows were covered."
"A moment later, the representative notified us that the execution was about to begin and that the first drug would be administered. The curtains were raised."
The first drug will stop Kylepas' breathing. The second will collapse his lungs and diaphragm. The final drug will stop his heart and kill him.
A GOOD WAY TO DIE
As the clock ticks toward midnight, Kleypas will be strapped down, the brown leather straps tightened so they are firm but do not restrict circulation. His head will be left unrestrained so that he can give his last statement. IVs already will have been placed in both arms. After his statement, the room will be cleared except for a few technicians. The death warrant will be read to Kleypas, and the last five minutes of his life will begin.
Although the execution witnessed by Holden seemed quiet, flawless and humane, the Florida Department of Corrections, in a survey of state execution methods, noted several problems that can occur during lethal injections.
In Oklahoma, Robyn Lee Parks had a reaction to the drugs. In a scene described as violent and ugly, Parks had spasms in his jaw, neck and abdominal muscles for about 45 seconds as he gasped and gagged.
In Texas, Raymond Landry's execution went awry when the IV line came loose two minutes into the killing, spraying the chemicals on the execution team. The team had to reinsert the catheter into the vein. The execution ended up taking 40 minutes.
In Illinois, John Wayne Gacy's IV lines clogged with the addition of the third drug. The clogged tube had to be replaced with a new one.
In Missouri, Emmitt Foster's execution took more than 30 minutes because the straps holding him to the gurney prevented the flow of toxins into his veins. The coroner noticed the problem 20 minutes after the execution began.
In Indiana, Tommie Smith's execution took one hour and 20 minutes after the team began administering the drugs. Prison officials could not find a vein in Smith's
arm and had to insert an angiocatheter into his heart, a procedure that took about 35 minutes. Smith remained conscious during the procedure.
In Arkansas, Rickey Ray Rector's executioners took more than 50 minutes to find a suitable vein. Rector, who already had received a lobotomy, eventually had to help them find a vein.
In the end, Kleypas' body, still on the gurney, will be wheeled out of the execution chamber. The curtains will be closed, and the witnesses will be led out.
Kleypas' execution may not happen if attorney like Jeff Moorts
accomplish their goals.
But for Kansas, the issue of how to kill somebody refuses to stop breathing.
Will Kleypas' execution method be better than the one that jerked the life out of Smith and Hickock?
Packer said that lethal injection was more modern and more humane.
"It's what's most frequently used right now," he said.
Executed inmates
"There is no humane way to kill someone," Bangert said. "Method is not an issue for me. It's an excuse to say it's OK."

Offenders avoid trial with diversion plea
By Laura Roddy
lroddy@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
When faced with charges, such as possession of a fake ID, students may consider applying for diversion rather than going to trial or pleading guilty.
Legal Services for Students at the University of Kansas sees students every week regarding diversion programs, said Joe Hardesty, Legal Services director. Most of the cases involve alcohol, such as a minor in possession charge, a driving-under-the-influence charge or having a fake ID, Hardesty said.
Diversions also can be sought for offenses such as battery or shoplifting.
"Most of our clients are firsttime offenders," Hardesty said. "The diversion program is very good for them."
Aaron Perler, Lenexa senior,
said that diversions were beneficial depending on the circumstances of an offense.
"The first time, I was just young and scared," Perler said.
"Looking back, it was pretty
dumb to use it up."
Diversion programs may include community service, drug testing, alcohol education sessions and payment of fines. Hardesty said.
"It's a contract between you and the city," she said. "Six months to a year is pretty standard. Once you've done it, though, that's your chance. You're not going to get it again."
Once the diversion program is completed, charges are dismissed. If the program is not completed in the allotted time, prosecution will be initiated.
Hardesty said that if students were considering applying for diversion, they first should enter a not guilty plea at their arraignment. Then, they can make an appointment at Legal Services, 148 Burge Union, if they have questions. However, students seeking a diversion do not need a lawyer, Hardesty said.
Legal Services first checks the jurisdiction of the charge because diversion rules vary from court to court. The office also asks students for a copy of
DIVERSIONS
■ Designed for first-time offenders
■ Diversions apply to offenses such as drunk driving, use of a fake ID, shoplifting, minor in possession and battery
Legal Services for Students, 148 Burge Union, offers assistance at 864-5565.
- Charges are dismissed if diversion program conditions are completed by the offender within a specified amount of time
their police report, Hardesty said.
If the case involves alcohol, students must undergo an alcohol evaluation and turn it in with the diversion application.
"If it looks like it's something that can be challenged, we will try to hook them up with an attorney in Lawrence," Hardesty said.
However, diversions are not cheap.
A driving-under-the-influence diversion in Lawrence Municipal Court costs about $450, including fees for alcohol education sessions.
Local liquor store closes; searching for owner

Patterson's Liquor Store
Patterson Liquor, 846 Illinois St., closed Monday after the contractual owner of the liquor store and the previous owner dissolved their contract.
Andrew Rohrback / KANSAN
"We closed two days ago, and we will be closed until there is a new buyer or we obtain a license," said Shelley Ayres, owner of the store and the shopping center in which it is located.
Ayres, Fresno, Calif., resident, said she purchased Patterson's, previously known as Bennett's Liquor, on April 30, 1984. She sold the store on contract to Tom Dangermond, Lawrence resident, on January 2, 1997.
Ayres said she returned to Lawrence when she was notified that Dangermond had defaulted on the contract. She said she wanted to find a new buyer for the store.
"At this point, it's up for grabs," Ayres said. "There are several people who have expressed interest in purchasing it. If that works out, fine. If not, I'll run it again."
Ayres said she had applied for all the licenses necessary to reopen the store.
"Given the circumstances, I would like to find a buyer and go back to my husband in California," she said. "The last time I did this was 14 years ago."
Ayres said that defaulting on a contract could mean that the owner-under-contract failed to make payment or failed to maintain inventory.
Dangermond said he was unable to specify the nature
of his default because of a confidentiality agreement between himself and Ayres.
He said the liquor-store market in Lawrence was competitive, and he said he was sorry to see his ownership end the way it did.
"It's a lot like the apartment market in Lawrence — there's a lot of people trying to make money doing the same thing."
Jeff Jensen, Lawrence resident and owner of Jensen Retail Liquor, said his store had seen a slight increase in business since Patterson's had closed.
"It's been a little bit busier," Jensen said. "I'd imagine the other stores' business has picked up a bit."
Adrienne LeFevre, Aurora, Ill., senior, said she preferred shopping at Patterson's.
"I hope that they reopen soon," LeFevre said. "Hopefully, the new management will provide the same cheerful service they had under the previous management."
Films feature Latin America
Spring festival offers viewers elusive flicks
By Marcelo Vilela
Kansan staff writer
Latin America is on film this month.
The festival began April 3. So far, two movies have been shown, and six more are scheduled. The festival ends May 1.
The next showings will be at 3 p.m. today at 3 Lippincott Hall and 3 p.m. tomorrow at Dyche Auditorium in Dyche Hall. The movies are subtitled.
Sam Sommerville, project coordinator of Latin American studies, said the festival was an on-going spring event.
"It's been growing," Sommerville said. "Depending on the film and on the day, we have 30 to 70 people attending."
He said the goals of the festival were to expose people to Latin American movies, to help illustrate lectures and to offer exposure to Spanish.
Having someone introduce the feature presentations began two years ago, and it has added to the appeal of the movies, Sommerville said.
Sommerville will introduce today's feature, Tangos, the Exile of Gardel.
"We wanted to show movies in the Latin American area that are not available in commercial theaters." Sommerville said. "Some are not even available in video stores."
"It's more closely related to European movies," Sommerville said. "It's conceived more as art than Hollywood movies."
He said these movies showed a different perspective about how films were made in Latin America.

"Festivals like these are extremely important because we don't have access to movies that are not from Hollywood." Victor said.
"They're movies that deal with reality and human issues in a different approach from the Hollywoodian ones."
Victor pointed out that the audiences were composed mostly of students from Latin America and Latin American Studies classes. Festival events are free and open to the public.

—The Internet is growing faster than all other technologies. Radio existed for 38 years before it had 50 million listeners, and television took 13 years to reach that mark. The Internet crossed the line in just four years.
Internet business booms with online purchases
-In 1994, three million people were connected to the Internet. By the end of last year, more than 100 million worldwide were using it, including 62 million Americans.
WASHINGTON — Traffic on the Internet is doubling every 100 days, the government said yesterday in the latest snapshot of the exploding information technology industry. Business use is growing the fastest, but as many as 62 million Americans are using the worldwide network and are even getting comfortable making credit card purchases on the World Wide Web.
—The information technology industry is growing twice as fast as the overall economy. Without information technology, inflation in 1997 would have been 3.1 percent.
The Commerce Department said 10 million people across the United States and Canada made purchases — from airline tickets to books to automobiles — on the Web by the end of 1997, up from 7.4 million people six months earlier.
It said business-to-business purchases, such as the wholesale purchase of supplies, could reach $300 billion by 2002 and save America's largest companies hundreds of millions of dollars by lowering the costs and reducing inventories.
The Associated Press
"Information technology is truly driving the U.S. economy — more than previous estimates had revealed," said Rhett Dawson, president of the Information Technology Industry Council.
"What is the report telling us? That the digital economy is alive-and-well and growing," said Commerce Secretary
The report recommended governments stay out of the growing industry, saying electronic commerce should not be burdened with extensive regulation, taxation or censorship.
Peter Lucht of Washington, D.C., said, "I bought a cigar humidor on the Internet and a print of a picture I saw at a museum, and in both cases I used my credit card. I felt as comfortable doing that as I do giving it over the phone."
Yeltsin supports young leader
Premier candidate shows personal side as casual,family man
"I usually feel pretty comfortable with it," Sorenson said. "I am a terrible shopper, anyway. I hate to leave my house. And with books — it takes like three or four days to get here."
Other key findings of the report.
The Associated Press
But the department cautioned that consumers must be more comfortable that credit card and personal information given online would not be tampered with, stolen or misused before the potential of digital commerce is realized.

Some customers who already have made purchases online say they are not worried about credit theft. Edith Sorenson, Houston, said she bought books and made travel arrangements, but only from established Web sites with which she was familiar.
But would-be premier Sergei Kiriyenko, who makes a fine pastry and looks at ease in casual clothes, represents a post-Soviet generation of young leaders infiltrating the top ranks in politics, business, the media and almost every other sphere of Russian life.
MOSCOW — It is hard to imagine old-style Kremlin leaders wearing blue jeans, baking or listening to American pop diva Whitney Houston on their stereo.

and Cabinet members. I'm setting the example myself by not running for a third term," Yeltsin was quoted as saying by Gennady Seleznoyv, the speaker of parliament's lower house. Seleznoyv met Tuesday with the president.
"Russia must be run by a young premier"
Kiriyenko still is struggling to win approval from a parliament controlled by Communists and other members of the old guard whose world views were shaped during the Soviet era.
The Communists describe Kiriyenko as too young and inexperienced. With the Communists leading the way, parliament rejected Kiriyenko's candidacy last week. A second vote is planned for tomorrow.
For a recent interview with Russian television at his dacha outside Moscow, Kiriyenko was dressed in blue jeans and a plaid shirt. He bounced his young daughter on his knee and played Whitney Houston in his living room. He and his wife Masha discussed their courtship as teen-agers.
"I am not dying for this post," Kiriyenko said in a recent interview with Russia's NTV. "But if I'm fired after a while because I don't manage it well, I would suffer, and it would be a painful process."
The son of a prominent academic, Kinyenko was just 28 and beginning his career as a private businessman when the Soviet Union collapsed in 1991.
He belonged to Communist youth groups, but as an adult was not part of the old system that required decades of bureaucratic service before one could even dream of reaching the upper echelons of government.
Kiriyenko ran a private bank and then an oil company in Nizhny Novgorod, Russia's third largest city, before he was brought into the government in May 1997 as deputy energy minister.
"Kiriyenko represents a different generation. He came to adulthood as the Soviet Union collapsed. He sees things in a different light, and that's probably what attracted Yeltsin," said Andrei Kortunov, an independent political analyst.
Kiriyenko, his wife revealed, enjoys baking. Prodded by the interviewer, Kiriyenko said he liked making Napoleons.
But Justin Daniellewitz, who is Jewish, says the concern was so great that it led to his exclusion from the editorial board. He aired his complaints in a Commentary magazine article titled "Counting Noses at the Harvard Crimson."
"I'm afraid that they may be sour grapes," Harvard Crimson President Matthew W. Granade said. "We saw the decision to diversify as expanding the staff, not excluding anyone."
Editors of the 125-year-old student newspaper said they wanted more diversity among the editors and columnists, and they added positions to include other ethnic groups.
Harvard paper tries to expand staff diversity
The Associated Press
"Officially, they say there isn't a quota system," he said. "But the editors have shown their intentions. If their rejection of me wasn't about religion, then I have to think that religion wouldn't have had to be brought up."
Danilewitz, a junior and frequent guest columnist, applied for the chairmanship of the editorial board, which dictates the paper's editorial policy and is made up of the columnists and top editors.
He added: "I think the paper is the better for it. Now, you can turn to the *Crimson*'s editorial pages and see opinions expressed that were never expressed before."
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. — The editors of the Harvard Crimson recently looked around the newsroom and came to a sudden realization: too many Jews.
Crimson editors said that Danilewitz had the story wrong and that this had nothing to do with his faith, but they would not elaborate.
Danilewitz said the two Jewish students selected as co-chairmen of the editorial board were chosen because they thought they should recruit columnists from various ethnic backgrounds.
Crimson editors said they wanted to broaden the editorial staff's racial and ethnic makeup, which now includes eight Jewish columnists out of 16. Black, Islamic and female students were among the six additional columnists.
"In their position papers, they specifically said that Jewish columnists from the tri-state area (New York, New Jersey and Connecticut) were overrepresented," said Danilewitz, who wrote his article in the April edition of the journal published by the American Jewish Committee.

Commentary
NFL draft picks resemble hunt for good date
Smiling from ear to ear, I chowed down on a sandwich from Gates Barbecue last Sunday.
Gates "Classic" sauce sent my body into euphoric coma while I pondered a theory about the upcoming NFL draft and relationships.
After missing my mouth and poking my cheek with a straw, I realized the NFL Draft and dating involved the same principles.
Most students find the draft, which will take place Saturday, as exciting as watching the grass grow and would rather gossip about who is seeing whom.
However, what students don't realize is that they conduct their own drafts when looking for a significant other.
Adam Herschman
sports@kansan.com
When teams checks out a player's qualities, it is trying to match the player's characteristics with its own criteria. The same is true of a relationship. We're looking for someone who fits our standards.
The first thing teams glance at when reading a scouting report is the player's personal attributes: Height, weight, 40-yard-dash time, bench-press reps, etc. Following the attributes is a history of his college career and a character analysis.
For those of us in the market, we'll check out those walking down Jayhawk Boulevard.
After spotting someone who is our type, we'll scan his or her physical characteristics such as height, weight, build, hair length, hair color, eye color, eyebrows, fingers, etc.
If his or her physique makes him or her a candidate, then it's important to learn about his or her previous dating history and character from available sources.
As the draft gets closer, teams scout foot ball players at combines and workouts.
The combine is when the top players are tested in a setting where all NFL teams are represented.
A Greek function is similar to the combine. Sororities and fraternities get together so their members can mingle with other organization's members. Also, the individual workout would be the equivalent of a one-on-one date — a chance to learn if this person is what you're looking for.
After gathering this information about the field of eligible players, a team then makes a decision.
On the day of the draft, professional teams consider one of two options — either selecting the best available player or selecting the top player who will fill a need.
in the social scene, the same thing occurs. Some people look for the best player available others look to fill needs..
Unfortunately, similar to the draft, the best player available often is already taken. That hurts. So what do you do?
There are few options; either draft to fill a need or trade down for more picks.
The truth is the only thing I accomplished was eating an awesome sandwich with a delicious, quasi-mind-altering sauce.
After blotting the barbecue sauce on my face, I felt I had accomplished something with my NEL draft relationship theory.

"I wouldn't say it's a done deal, but I'm 95 percent sure he will wind up at Kansas," Pingotore said. "He just
wanted to check out the campus and make sure that Kansas was the right place for him."
London averaged 17.5 points, six rebounds and four assists for St. Joseph's last season. Teammates Mark Treadwell (Indiana) and Rob Walls (Penn State) signed letters-of-intent elsewhere.
Despite being the team's top performer, London is not ranked among the top 500 prospects as listed by recruiting analyst Bob Gibbons. One reason he his not listed could be that London did not play at any summer camps last year.
"If the recruiting analysts have never seen Marlon play, then how could they rate him?" Pingatore asked. "Sure, not playing summer camps hurt him. No one knew him because he did not play in front of Bob Gibbons and everyone else."
Pingatore, who was featured in the movie Hoop Dreams, said the Jayhawks actively had recruited London since late January.
The only matter left for London, who is on spring break, is to take care of is his ACT score.
To date, his best score is a 16, one point shy of the required 17 to be NCAA eligible. He retook the ACT on April 4, and both coach and player are confident that London scored high enough.
London was expected to arrive on campus this morning. He will attend the Kansas men's basketball team banquet at 6:30 tonight in Allen Field House.
Pingatone said London possessed a wealth of athleticism and scoring ability but needed to work on his defensive game.
"All-round, he's a solid player who

can play either guard or small forward," Pingatore said. "But if there was a weakness in his game, it would be on defense. Defense is about intensity, and he could improve there."
Should London sign, the Jayhawks would have one scholarship left. That scholarship was used by former walk-on guard Terry Nooner last season.
Kansas may use the scholarship to sign another recruit or give it to Nooner again next year.
The signing of London would give the Jayhawk seven guards on the roster.

Chris Williams relieved starter Marc Corson in the second inning and kept the Jayhawks ahead of ninth-ranked Wichita State going into the bottom of the ninth inning, but four Shocker hits off of Williams and Smart sealed Kansas' fate.
Williams dropped to 22, allowing six runs to a team averaging more than 12 runs a game.
"That kid fought his heart out," said Kansas coach Bobby Randall said. "I put him back out to start the ninth because I could see in his eyes how badly he wanted to win that game — it was a championship effort."
Williams threw with confidence, working out of three bases-loaded jams with minimal damage.
"We all did some good things tonight that we can build on even though we lost," Williams said. "We went right at them and were close to beating a great team."
Wichita State was led by Shawnee Mission South graduate Pat Magness, who slammed out four hits while driving in two runs. Lawrence High school graduate Kevin Hooper also had two hits for the Shockers.
A poor Wichita State defense allowed Kansas a 51 lead after four innings. The Shockers committed four errors and allowed three unearned runs.
"We played sloppy all over the field tonight," said Gene Stevenson, Wichita State head coach. "Kansas played their hearts out, and we almost gave them the game."
Randall said he was proud of the way his team had performed but also said the team really had wanted to win the game.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (April 16).
Travel plans may seem hopeless this year but save the money anyway. In April, pay a debt to an older woman. Once that is completed, you will get lucker.
Aries: Today is an 8.
Taurus: Today is a 6.
Do not lose your temper with a gentle person this morning. As the day continues, you'll have more power. That is good, since there is work to be done. The money certainly will come in handy. You already have thought of several ways to spend it.
Gemini: Today is an 8.
Love could come your way today, although you may not recognize the person as a potential love interest. You may think of him or her as a friend. If you are married, that could be the situation between you and your spouse.
Things may seem too hard to deal with this morning but do not worry. The confusion clears as the day continues. Your mate or partner makes some succinct and appropriate suggestions. It is hard for you to listen when some body else tells you what to do but give it a try.
Cancer: Today is a 5.
To succeed, try thinking from the point of view of your boss, teacher, parent or whatever other authority figure looms prominent in your life. If you do not, you could be completely blind sided by something this person asks you to do.
Leo: Today is a 9.
Fun, games, romance, travel, adventure, excitement—all of this and more is in store for you. How are you going to make the most of this marvelous advantage? The obvious first step is to get together with the one you love. This could be your sweetheart, mate or a child.
Virgo: Today is a 5.
Your home is still in an uproar but that is OK. It may seem like everything is costing too much. You may have also made a bigger mess than you had anticipated. Not to worry. By tomorrow, conditions will be a little more fun and a little less tense.
Scorpio: Today is a 5.
Sagittarius: Today is a 7.
Libra: Today is an 8.
Something you find difficult is ridiculously easy for a coworker. You have been trying to do it the hard way, and you have been resisting. Stop both you and will find everything getting easier. This will not make you less powerful. Master this skill and you will be awesome.
Capricorn: Today is a 5.
There are things going on today that need to stay confidential. That is not a problem for you, but it could be for a co-worker. Make sure this person doesn't know too much. Because you are not quite sure which person it is, you had better be careful with everything you say.
Aquarius: Today is a 7.
You are looking good and pushing hard. You are strong, and you have the backing you need. You and another person can seize victory with one last effort. Well, it is not even an effort, actually. It is more like fun. Congratulations and keep up the good work!
It is better to put money into the bank than to take money out. Remember that if a friend tries to talk you into spending money. True, sometimes you have to spend money to make money, but right now you have to pay off debts to make money.
Pisces: Today is a 5.
+ +
You may experience confusion but do not worry. It's part of the learning process. As you get further into the program, everything will make more sense. You'll certainly be proud of yourself for having gone through this mess and emerging triumphant.
2
You are going to have to put up with an older person's ridicule. He or she thinks it is funny. You, however, do not appreciate feeling like the brun of a joke. Can you lighten up about this? If not, nothing will make this assignment worthwhile. Give it a try. It might not be as hard as it looks.

Men's tennis hopes high for Longhorn matchup
The Jayhawks face a seventhranked Texas team today that has only two losses this season.
Last season, the Jayhawks lost to Texas 4-1 during the regular season, and the Longhorns defeated the Jayhawks again during the Big 12 Tournament championship match 4-1.
Senior Enrique Abaroa competed in singles action Sunday for the first time since March 27. Abaroa suffered a sprained back earlier in the season and had been playing only doubles.
Defeating the Longhorns could be difficult, but the Jayhawks will have a full lineup for only the third time this season.
Freshman Ed Dus has started to play more consistently at the No. 6 singles. He has won three of his last four matches, including a win of straight sets against Baylor's Jaro Turek.
With Abaroa's return, players who have had to play a spot higher than usual will return to their original spots.
The Jayhawks will try to bounce back from a loss Sunday against No. 25
Baylor. The loss guaranteed the Jayhawks a record below .500 for the first time since 1989, when they wint 9-18. The team also was eliminated from the Big 12 regular season title chase.
Kansas has only one match remaining after today. The team faces Texas A&M Saturday in College Station, Texas.

COLUMBIA, Mo. — Matt Rowan, a 6-foot-7 forward who helped lead Liberty to an undefeated season, has signed a letter-of-intent with the University of Missouri, coach Norm Stewart announced yesterday.
Rowan is the first recruit to sign with the Tigers during the spring period, which continues until May 15. In the fall, Missouri signed Keyon Dooling and Clarence Gilbert of Dillard High in Fort Lauderdale, Fla.; Travis Robinson of Mt. Zion Academy in Durham, N.C.; and Pat Schumacher of Hazelwood Central in St. Louis.

Stewart called Rowan an outstanding player who would bring a physical and aggressive style of play to Missouri.
Now, he is ready to go back to work for Kansas City, the club for which he spent 12 years pitching, as a roving minor league pitching instructor.
KANSAS CITY, Mo.—A two-month retirement from baseball was all Mark Gubicza could stand.
Longtime Royal returns to take job as instructor
"It's tough being away from the game," said Gubicza, who still is listed as the Royals' all-time strikeout leader. "I found I couldn't get it out of my system. I love being part of it. I couldn't see myself doing something
else right now."
After pitching for the Royals from 1984 to 1996, Gubicza signed with the Anaheim Angels, then retired in February.
But restless in his Northridge, Calif., home, he flew to Kansas City several weeks ago to speak with general manager Herk Robinson and other Royals' officials.
"We actually started talking about some things during spring training," Gubicza said from California. "I just asked them if there was something I could do for the organization."
The Royals are happy to welcome him back.
"Every contract we negotiated, he always said, 'Now, don't forget I want to come back and work for the Royals.' " Robinson said.
Gubica'a's only request was that he have plenty of time at home with wife Lisa and their three children.
The Florida Bobcats, whose new arena in Fort Lauderdale will not be ready for use this season, will play the Nashville Kats on July 25.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — A group that wants to get an Arena Football League franchise for Kansas City has lined up two teams to play a regular season game at Kemper Arena this summer.
Arena football teams to play in Kansas City
Plans for the game were announced yesterday by the Sports Group, which hopes to get a franchise for Kansas City in 1999.
"This game will be an excellent opportunity to test the market and see if the fans in Kansas City are interested in adding another professional sports franchise to the local sports landscape," said Paul McGannon, chairman of the Sports Group.
The 14-team Arena League begins its 12th indoor football season in May.

Texas Tech teams' futures shaky
The Associated Press
LUBBOCK, Texas — Although Texas Tech soon will celebrate the end of a two-year NCAA investigation into its Athletics Department, this week's stern self-imposed sanctions and the potential of further
F
penalties have left an aftermath of uncertainty.
Reactions ranged from hope to pessimism after Tuesday's
announcement of scholarship cuts, particularly in baseball and football. "You never know what it's going to be for sure," said football coach Spike Dykes, who will lose 14 scholarships during the next two years and was hit with recruiting-related penalties this winter. "I think what
you've got to do is find a way to make it work."
Tech revealed the penalties in conjunction with the release of a 1,250-page response to a series of NCAA allegations leveled last October. Tech has admitted to allowing 81 athletes to compete while ineligible, awarding too much scholarship money in four sports and having several assorted improprieties in men's basketball and football.
Tech also is disputing many of the allegations, or at least aspects of the allegations. The school will present its case to the NCAA Committee on Infractions in Cleveland on April 24. Any further penalties would be handed down by late June.
Losing personnel would hurt Tech's football team, said Texas A&M athletic director Wally Groff, whose program virtually was unable to recruit from 1992-93 because of rumors that an ongoing
NCAA probe could result in the death penalty — temporary shutdown of the program.
Groff and coach R.C. Slocum attribute the Aggies' 6-6 record in 1996 to the investigation, which resulted in a one-year probation.
"Probably before the ruling came down, it was tougher," Groff said of the recruiting problems.
Tech's men's basketball will lose two scholarships for each of the next three seasons. However, like the football team, basketball is entering the probationary period with a strong cast of young talent.
Baseball could be where Tech sufers the most because the team will lose about 25 percent of its scholarship money during the next two seasons and a lesser amount in the 2001-2002 school year. According to school documents, former administrator Taylor McNeel miscalculated the number of scholarships Tech
could award.
"Several people noted that they didn't think Tech was counting its (baseball) scholarships right," Groff said. "I think a lot of us thought that."
Tech baseball coach Larry Hays repeatedly questioned McNeel about the scholarship i process and was told the school was handling it properly, according to Tech's voluminous responses to the charges.
Hays said he would essentially lose up to nine players each year who would have shared the partial baseball scholarships each of the two years, a speed bump for a program that has won 40 games in each of the past three seasons.
Men's track coach Greg Sholars also bemoaned losing 20 percent of his scholarship budget next season, saying it could crimp an emerging program. Men's golf and women's basketball will receive lesser cuts.
NCAA outlines Louisville violations
Officials to consider 'major' infractions in volleyball, hoops
The Associated Press
LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Calling possible infractions major, the NCAA outlined eight charges against Louisville's women's volleyball program and one against the men's basketball program yesterday.
Although the university reported most of the violations last summer, the use of the word "major" in the NCAA's report opened the way for various possible sanctions against the programs when the governing body rules as early as August. The university must respond by June 8.
University officials refused to speculate about likely penalties. However, Ray Nystrand, assistant for athletics to Louisville president John Shumaker, said the NCAA could revoke scholarships or television broadcast rights.
Afterward, Nystrand acknowledged the so-called "death penalty" as a possibility for the basketball program, which already is on NCAA probation for allowing athletes improper access to vehicles.
Shumaker said he considered all violations major, even those the NCAA classified as secondary. However, he said the university was working diligently to correct the problems and had hired someone to monitor rules compliance.
"I want to make it clear that for a university of this stature, and for a university with aspirations of the sort we embrace, being on probation of any sort, whether it be for an academic program or an athletic program, is unacceptable," he said. "We are determined to see to it that the culture and the climate within this university make a repeat of these incidents impossible."
The citation against the basketball team involves arrangements made by assistant coach Scooter McCray in 1996 to keep player Nate Johnson's father from being evicted from a Louisville hotel. McCray admitted giving his personal credit card to the Wilson Inn
"I want to make it clear that for a university of this stature, and for a university with aspirations of the sort we embrace, being on probation of any sort, whether it be for an academic program or an athletic program, is unacceptable."
John Shumaker Louisville President
to assure Fredrick Johnson would not be evicted. However, McCray said he never intended to pay the bill himself.
In addition, the letter alleges that McCray asked about special rates for the elder Johnson before his Sept. 18 move into the hotel. However, university officials argue that Johnson already had moved in when McCray made the inquiries.
"While we recognize there is conflicting information around this, we are unable to at this point, on the basis of what we know, to substantiate any claim that Mr. McCray did this before Mr. Johnson was there." Nystrand said.
After those violations were detected last June, Shumaker put McCray on a one-year probation with his salary frozen. He also required coach Denny Crum to hold a monthly meeting for the basketball staff on NCAA regulations and compliance issues and also required Crum to attend every Athletics Department compliance meeting.
The allegations against the volleyball team are more serious. In addition to the six violations that were part of the university report released in July, the NCAA added two. The new citations were that assistant coach Mitzy Donoff violated ethic conduct standards and coach Leonid Yelin failed to exercise "appropriate institutional control" over the program.
Donhoff's contract was not renewed, and Yelin was suspended for 30 days without pay.

New England stockpiles picks
Patriots keeping all options open
The Associated Press
FOXBORO, Mass. — The phone keeps ringing. New England Patriots draft boss Bobby Grier listens to trade proposals. Then he hangs up and feels good that, with so many draft picks, he's in an enviable position.
when their six choices in the first three rounds.

tion.
The Patriots want to guarantee their future, not mortgage it. So if the price isn't right for a trade, they'll gladly stick with
Two of those choices — a first and a third — came from the New York Jets as compensation for signing running
back Curtis Martin.
That left one thing very clear: the Patriots' top priority in this weekend's draft is getting a player to replace Martin.
C
Just who that will be depends on whether they keep the 18th pick or move into the top five to get a shot at Penn State's Curtis Enis.
"We're not willing to be held up."
JETS
We held up,
said Grier, vice
president of
player personnel.
"We've put a
price on what
we'd like to do."
Chicago has the fifth pick, but Grier said the
Bears haven't told him what they would take in a trade. He talked
with many other teams, some of whom are interested in one of New England's two first-round picks next year, but Grier thinks those may be even more valuable than this year's choices.
The Patriots have 10 choices in the seven rounds as bargaining chips, but a trade before the draft is unlikely, Grier said. He may be waiting to see how quickly the top running backs are taken before deciding whether to move up to make sure he gets a quality player.
"I don't think there's reason to panic if there's a guy we want and he's not" available when the Patriots make their pick, Grier said.
Without a trade, they still have six of the top 82 picks and an excellent chance to build depth that could improve an already strong team for many years.
"If we're patient, we'll get six good football players," Grier said. "We can move up and make a big splash or we can stay where we are and make a bigger splash."
In a deep draft, the Patriots have a chance to do better this year than they did in 1995, when they picked up five strong players in the top 112 picks — Martin, cornerbacks Ty Law and Jimmy Hitchcock, linebacker Ted Johnson and center Dave Wohlabaugh.
They need help in the secondary, and Grier loves Michigan's Charles Woodson. But he doesn't think Arizona, which could take Woodson with the third pick, wants to trade.
The Patriots also want a wide receiver, but they're not interested in Marshall's Randy Moss because of his off-field problems.
The emphasis remains on a running back to complement the passing of Drew Bledsoe and there are several good ones — Fred Taylor of Florida, Robert Edwards of Georgia and Robert Holcombe of Illinois — who may be available with the 18th or 22nd picks, both belonging to the Patriots.
With few exceptions, most running backs drafted in the first round in the 1990s have had productive careers, although that's no guarantee of stardom — as Chicago's Rashaan Salaam and Cincinnati's Ki-Jana Carter, both taken in 1995, have shown.
Martin was taken in the third round in 1995 and has rushed for more than 1,000 yards in each of his three seasons. His value became even more apparent when he missed the last three games last season with shoulder and abdominal injuries and the Patriots totaled just 144 rushing yards.
New England coach Cepri Carroll wants to see more of Sedrick Shaw, a running back drafted out of Iowa in the third round last season, but Shaw didn't carry the ball in the regular season.
The Patriots also explored the market for veteran free agents including Chris Warren, Rodney Hampton, Greg Hill and Terry Kirby.
Carroll said the Patriots would enter the draft and see how things turned out before reconsidering such players.
That wouldn't be necessary if they could get Enis. But if they don't, Carroll wouldn't mind stockpiling college talent that could keep the Patriots in Super Bowl content for a while.
"With six picks in the first three rounds, it gives us a chance to create a competitive environment in (training) camp," Carroll said. "Guys fighting to hold their spots makes this a better football team."
It's up to Grier to make sure those picks — if the Patriots keep them — are the right ones.
"More pressure? No. All these guys ask me that," Grier said. "I think the pressure is self-imposed. I think we're thorough and we're well-organized."
And, for the moment, without a running back.
"I don't think there is reason to panic if there's a guy we want and he's not available when the Patriots make their pick."
"We have confidence in our ability to pick players we like throughout this draft," Carroll said.

New Orleans may solve draft dilemma for Dallas
The Associated Press
IRVING, Texas — The Dallas Cowboys may not face a quandary about Randy Moss after all. The New Orleans Saints may take the troubled wide receiver one pick ahead of the Cowboys, who already have had their share of off the-field distractions. The selection by the Saints would spare Dallas from having to decide whether to take a supremely talented player or let him go because of his past.
So chances are the Cowboys, who pick eighth, will be able to get a much-needed pass rushing defensive end, offensive lineman or linebacker.
Once again, team owner Jerry Jones has barred his coaches from discussing Saturday's draft with the media. And he is not talking much, either, so there is no real answer to what the Cowboys will do about Moss should he still be available.
Moss and 14 other first-round draft picks have been interviewed at Valley Ranch by Jones, his coaches and Calvin Hill, the team's behavior consultant.
"It's the first time in a long time we've been able to bring the top 15 picks or so to our place for close-up interviews," Jones said. "It tells you a lot about a player."
Jones would not discuss Moss, who caught 26 touchdown passes at Marshall last year, other than to say, "He's even big."
ger (6-foot-4, 200-pounds) than I thought."
Moss did not show up wearing sunglasses as he did at the Heisman Trophy ceremonies, where he finished fourth. He also has not said much leading up to the draft, but as he left the Cowboy's training camp last week, he told
reporters
t h a t
t e a m s
that pass

" w i l l

once they
see what

HOUSING
kind of a player I am and what kind of guy I really am."
It seems unlikely the Cowboys would risk the criticism that is sure to come if they take Moss — even if he gets by New Orleans at the No. 7 spot.
Moss' criminal background includes a battery conviction and a positive marijuana test — reasons he left Notre Dame and Florida State and went to Marshall.
After a disastrous 6-10 season that cost Barry Switzer his job, Jones and new coach Chan Gailey are under pressure to draft players who can produce immediately.
Shante Carver, the defensive end who was Jones' first-round pick in 1994, recently retired. His inability to rush the passer
Since Jimmy Johnson left the team in 1994, Dallas drafts under Jones have not zone well.
from Charles Haley's old spot was one of the reasons the secondary had only six interceptions last year.
Running back Sherman Williams, the Cowboys' first pick in 1995, has been an underproducer and may not be with the team because free agent Chris Warren signed this week.
Kavika Pittman, another defensive end, was the Cowboys' first pick in 1996 and has yet to make an impact.
"I still think Kavika will be a player," defensive coordinator Dave Campo said. "We just need to be patient. But we could use some more help in the line and also at linebacker."
Tight end David LaFleur, the first pick in 1997, excelled at blocking last year but was seldom used as a receiver.
Some late-round picks have been good, led by Larry Allen, a second-rounder in 1994 who has developed into an All-Pro. Linebackers Randall Godfrey (second, 1996), and Dexter Coakley (third, 1997) also have become solid starters.
But the overall quality is not there and has hurt the Dallas depth particularly in the offensive line, where Nate Newton is fading fast.
"We need help in a lot of areas," Gailey said. "But that's probably not big news."
What would be big news is if the Cowboys took a chance on the talented but troubled Moss.
Player's past transcends to draft
Coaches ponder receiver's worth for high pick
Moss is the enigma of the NFL draft, a talented athlete with a dubious past. Coaches and executives have said they do not know if spending a high draft pick on Moss was worth the risk.
"Randy has not had a problem since he's been at Marshall." Thundering Herd coach Bob Pruett said. "I don't think it's fair to keep chastising someone for as far back as high school. He's being chastised only because he's a gifted athlete. If he wasn't, people wouldn't care about this."
Without the questions, Moss probably would be drafted in the top five. Now, he probably will not go that high, and some people think that if he does not go to New Orleans with the seventh pick Saturday, he could tumble to No.20 or lower.
There is little question about his talent — the one rap on him is if he will catch balls over the middle, a prerequisite for a top NFL receiver.
The 6-foot-5 receiver runs the 40-yard-dash in a 4.3 seconds and can leap over most defensive backs. In 1996, he had 29 touchdowns in leading Marshall to the 1996 Division I-AA title. Last season, the school's first in Division I-A, he
Moss had a scholarship revoked by Notre Dame after being charged three years ago with beating up a high school classmate. He went to Florida State, where he was redshirted his freshman season, but coach Bobby Bowden kicked Moss off the team for violating probation by smoking marijuana.
And during his first season at Marshall, Moss and the mother of his daughter were arrested on misdemeanor domestic charges. The woman's family said she was not physically harmed.
Sapp, taken by Tampa Bay with the 12th overall pick in 1995, has become a Pro Bowl player and has caused no off-field problems. Phillips, taken sixth overall in 1996 by St. Louis, lasted one and one-half years with the Rams and now is with Miami.
But his personal problems make him a gamble, just like Warren Sapp and Lawrence Phillips, two highly touted players with personal problems who slid down in the draft.
Tim DiPiero, Moss' attorney,
said the charges were dropped
after both agreed to attend
counseling.
Personnel director Bobby Grier of New England said this week he did not want Moss because of his past problems. Rams coach Dick Vermeil has said the same.
Tampa Bay coach Tony Dungy said: "He's the kind of guy we wouldn't go near. We don't want personal baggage."
caught 96 passes for a I-A record along with 25 touchdowns and 1,820 yards.
But Moss has visited with the Saints, Chicago Bears and Dallas Cowboys. Although the
Bears, who pick fifth, said they still were interested, most people think they were saying that in hopes another team would attempt to trade for their pick.
Moss has not granted interviews in the weeks leading up to the draft, but as he left the Cowboy's training camp last week, he told reporters that teams that passed on him would regret it once they saw what kind of a player and person he was.
Pruett allowed Moss to join the team as a walk-on before the 1996 season.
DiPiero said: "Everybody's beating on him right now. It's ridiculous"
"We set down the guidelines that he had to stay eligible and would be treated just like everyone else," Pruett said. "He's matured a great amount. He came here as a young pup."
But the meetings with teams have helped.
"A lot of NFL people say they're not interested in him, but I get calls daily," Pruett said. "Maybe the Patriots are not going to take him. He probably won't be around when they get their pick."
"He feels like he accomplished a lot," DIPiero said. "That's all he's wanted, is for people to know him. It's the key to getting through the media image."
Moss will watch the draft on television from home rather than attending in person, as top prospects often do.
"The team that gets him, they're going to be a whole lot better," Pruett said. "Some of the bad press he's getting now is from people who are jockeying for position hoping he'll slide down to them."

Michigan quarterback's stock gains value as NFL draft nears
The Associated Press
PONTIAC, Mich. — He has the blood lines. He won the Rose Bowl and a share of the national championship. As a result, Brian Griese finds his stock rising as the NFL draft approaches this weekend.
Washington State's Rvan Leaf and
NFL
stronger than Griese
Tennessee Peyton Manning—who also was born with quarterback genes—will be the first two taken in this draft. Both are bigger and
But the Michigan quarterback has a record of leadership and championships that cannot be overlooked. As a result, several teams, including the Denver Broncos and New York Jets, are interested, and Grise could move up to the third or fourth rounds.
"I think Brian Griese has a lot of "i think as a football player," Detroit Lions coach Bobby Ross said yesterday. "His passes are very well timed. He's a leader. The qualities are all
there."
Griese, who decided to return for a fifth year of eligibility, is the son of NFL Hall of Fame quarterback Bob Griese. Even though his father was an All-American at Purdue, Brian Griese enrolled at Michigan and went out for football as a walk-on.
Last season, Griese completed 193 of 307 passes for 2,293 yards, 17 touchdowns and six interceptions.
In the process, he broke the Michigan attempts and completes records held by Todd Collins. Only Collins and Jim Harbaugh threw for more yards in a season for the Wolverines.
But they did not win a national championship. Griese did — at least a share of it. Michigan was won No. 1 in the AP writers'队; Nebraska won the ESPN/USA Today coaches poll.
Lee Corso, ESPN analyst, called Griese "the glue that holds the Michigan team that team."
That was especially true in the Rose Bowl game. Griess out-dueled Leaf in Pasadena, hitting 18 of 30 passes for 251 yards and three touchdowns, including 53 and 56-yard bombs.
"I know I don't have the talent that we plan to play in the NFL."
do," Griese said before that game.
"I'm pretty realistic. There are guys who can throw harder and run faster.
"I have my strengths, and I play to them."
The factors working against Grieese are size, strength and speed. He is listed on the NFL profile sheet as 6-foot-1, 206 pounds with a time of 5.0 in the 40-vard dash.
By comparison, Leaf is 6.5, 254, with a super-strong arm. Manning is 6.5, 230 pounds and drills the long outs with tremendous velocity.
"Brian is probably lacking a little bit in athleticism," Ross said. "I think there's a little bit of a tendency in our league to go that way. But I wouldn't say he won't go in the first or second round. He has a lot to offer."
If nothing else, Griese has a bit of history on his side. There is a growing list of Michigan quarterbacks — taken in the lower rounds — who are doing well in the NFL today.
The Chicago Bears raised some eyebrows when they made Harbaugh a first-round pick in 1987. Elvis Grbac was the San Francisco 49ers' eighth-round pick in 1993. Collins was taken in the second round by the Buffalo Bills in 1995.
New coach drafts Raiders lineup
Oakland searches for star players,not first draft choices
The Associated Press
ALAMEDA, Calif. — The Oakland Raiders are proof that building a team with top draft choices does not ensure a winning club.
They had 18 first-round picks on their rcaster last season, including three players who were the top overall selection in their drafts, but the Raiders finished 4-12 and missed the playoffs for the fourth straight year.
"How you put your team together is critical in terms of chemistry," said Jon Gruden, the new Raiders coach. "I don't think you have to be a top-five pick or a first-rounder to be effective."
The Oakland roster last season featured six players who were selected in the first five picks of their draft and 11 who were top-10 choices.
Unless they trade away the fourth pick, the Raiders will add another top-five selection Saturday. Desperately in need of cornerbacks, Oakland is expected to pick Heisman Trophy winner Charles Woodson if he is available.
"He's an extremely confident individual. He's just what you want in a cornerback," Gruden said. "He's a great player, and he's going to have a great career in this league."
Woodson also returned punts and
made cameo appearances as a wide receiver at Michigan. The Raiders have former Heisman Trophy winner Desmond Howard to return punts.
The Raiders have a tradition of signing first-round picks who flopped with the team that drafted them. Of the 18 first-rounders on the 1997 roster, fewer than half were drafted by the Raiders.
Defensive end Aundray Bruce was the No. 1 pick in 1988 by Atlanta, and
HARVEY JACKSON
defensive tackle Russell Maryland the top pick in 1991.
Although the Raiders have taken on other teams' mistakes, Oakland also has had mixed success with its own first-round selections in the 1990s.
The Raiders' first-round picks in 1991 (quarterback Todd Marinovich) and 1993 (safety Patrick Bates) are gone. The Raiders chose Marinovich, who quit football at age 23, instead of Brett Favre.
And 1982 first-rounder Chester McGlockton also may leave the Raiders soon. The Raiders have made him their franchise player. However, they have been trying to trade him or hoping he will sign an offer sheet with another team so they can get compensation.
The team also faces uncertainty with six-time Pro Bowl cornerback
Eric Allen, who was traded to Oakland by the New Orleans Saints for a draft pick but has said he may retire rather than play for the Raiders.
Allen said he told Saints officials he wanted to be traded to a contender and he questioned whether the Raiders were such a team. He has met with Oakland officials since the trade, but his status has not been resolved.
Gruden said he was preparing for the draft with the assumption that Allen would join the Raiders.
"We are very optimistic this thing is going to work out and he is going to be a key part of this defense." Gruden said. "This is, I believe, a great opportunity for him. We've won in the past, and we're very confident we're going to win again. We need his leadership and his spark on defense."
In addition to cornerbacks, the Raiders are looking for a fullback and a linebacker. They also may seek a backup quarterback in the draft, though they already have auditioned candidates such as former New York Giants starter Dave Brown.
The 34-year-old Gruden, going into his first draft as a head coach, has been arriving at the office before sunrise to study for this weekend.
"This is an exciting time for me, not only for a young head coach but for any coach in this league. We know this is a huge day for our futures, and we're confident something is going to happen," he said. "We want to try to acquire chemistry and depth and young men that can be the lifeblood of our team for years."

NHL wants to preserve Canadian hockey
The Associated Press
TORONTO — NHL commissioner Gary Bettman issued a blunt warning yesterday to Canadian fans: their six NHL teams will have trouble competing with U.S. franchises unless public officials change fiscal policies.
Bettman came to Canada seeking to ease doubts about the NHL's commitment to preserving big-league hockey in the land that gave birth to the sport. Anxiety has been deep since teams in Quebec City and Winnipeg moved to U.S. cities.
In a speech to business executives and a subsequent news conference, Bettman outlined the NHL's efforts to boost TV revenue for the six Canadian clubs and cushion the impact of the weak Canadian dollar.
Bettman suggested that the six franchises would not thrive unless Canadian politicians offered more help in the form of tax breaks and subsidies for new centers.
"Canadian teams start each season at a disadvantage compared to their U.S. counterparts," he said. "I don't want them to merely survive. I want them to be competitive."
Bettman cited taxes as a major problem, saying the Montreal Canadians and Ottawa Senators each pay more in municipal taxes than all 20 U.S. teams combined. The total tax bill for each Canadian team averages four times that of a U.S. team, he said.
Arena construction is another problem, Bettman said. He said that the new Nashville team would move into a publicly financed arena, while arenas recently opened or under construction in Ottawa, Montreal and Toronto relied on private financing.
The Senators even had to pay for construction of a highway exit ramp. Bettman said.
hockey — in Canada.
On April 28, Bettman will return to Canada to testify before a parliamentary subcommittee that plans hearings on the health of the sports industry—particularly
Fans nationwide have been jarred by several recent developments, ranging from a sex-abuse case involving a prominent junior-league coach to the failure of the men's team to win a medal at the

NHL
so c er recently has surpassed hockey for the first time as the sport played by the
most Canadian youths. And one of the country's leading newspapers
— the Globe and Mail — is running a 12-part series about why the sport is in crisis.
Bettman, well-briefed on these problems, said he hoped his comments yesterday would start a public debate about whether more should be done by public officials to support NHL franchises.
At the news briefing, skeptical reporters questioned whether Canadians would be willing to
support tax breaks for pro teams at a time when budget cuts were causing hospitals to close and doctors to stage walkouts.
"This industry is not getting even close to as favorable treatment as other industries," he said.
Bettman responded that the Canadian government already provided financial support for other industries and should look at pro hockey in the same light.
Bettman said he would be "extremely unhappy and disappointed" if another Canadian club relocated to the United States. But he said owners of the 20 U.S. teams would be unlikely to subsidize Canadian teams out of their own pockets, especially if tax policies were viewed as a major part of the problem.
Bettman stressed that the NHL would remain loyal to Canada, which supplies the league with 60 percent of its players.
"The NHL does not and cannot take hockey in Canada for granted," he said. "I assure you of our diligence."
Yankees play at Shea stadium
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Everything seemed slightly out of place.
The Yankees walked off their buses into Shea Stadium.
when the New York Yankees and their fans found the way from the Bronx to Queens for the first game of a doubleheader yesterday, things were familiar — but not quite right.
"Two teams from two leagues that have never gotten along, in the same ballpark," said Yankees manager Joe Torre. "It's strange. It's just weird what's going on."
The Yankees were forced to borrow Shea while Yankee Stadium was closed after a 500-pound steel joint fell from the upper deck Monday. New York beat Anaheim, 6-3.
With the Mets at home yesterday against the Chicago Cubs, it marked the first time this century that two regular-season
games involving four teams played in one stadium on the same day.
A similar doubleheader was played in 1885, when the New York Metropolitans of the American Association and the New York Giants of the National League shared the Polo Grounds, said Tim Wiles, director of research at the Baseball Museum in Cooperstown, N.Y.
It was a homecoming for several Yankees. Torre, pitching coach Mel Stottlemyre, third base coach Willie Randolph, pitcher David Cone and outfielder Darryl Strawberry all spent time with the Mets earlier in their careers.
Confusion struck again when a huge apple that salutes home runs by the Mets began to rise beyond the center field fence. Suddenly, it stopped moving when the operator remembered it had a Mets logo on it — and it was a Yankee home run.
Rookie driver overcomes injury seeks position in Indianapolis 500
The Associated Press
INDIANAPOLIS — Serious injuries in a crash during practice made Danny Drinan even more determined to drive in the Indianapolis 500.
Drinan was a rookie two years ago but sustained a concussion, broken left hip, broken foot and bruised lung when his car slammed into the wall. All he could think about was getting back into a race car.
And Indv. of course.
"Inside, this means a lot. I've been working for this my whole life," said Drinan, one of four drivers who practiced yesterday before rain shut down the Rookie Orientation Program at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
Drinan, who had to complete a rookie refresher test Tuesday, had a top speed of 213.63 mph in 11 laps yesterday. Jimmy Kite was the quickest at 215.646. The only others who practiced were Steve Knapp
NASCAR
and Stan Wattles.
Full practice for the May 24 race begins May 10.
Drinan's first injury was to his elbow during a 1992 U.S. Auto Club midget car race at Springfield, Ill. Doctors told him he left with about 45 percent mobility.
"I tore it apart on the therapy sessions and made it work again. I had the same attitude when they fixed my hip," he said. "Then they were trying to hold me back from doing things again, and I just pushed and pushed. I think this is the end result."
Drinan underwent surgery on his hip the day after his 1996 crash at Indianapolis. The next season, he was third in his only two starts in the U.S. Auto Club Silver Crown series. Driving for D.B. Mann Motorsports, he is trying for his first Indy Racing League start this season.
Seniors take swing at golf championship
The Associated Press
PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla.
The Bend School
— The PGA Seniors' Championship might look like a showdown between Gil Morgan and Hale Irwin, the two dominant players on tour, but don't forget one of the old boys out there — Jack Nicklaus.
While Nicklaus will be coming in this week trying to recover from what must have been an emotionally draining experience at the Masters, Irwin comes into the tournament with the added pressure of trying to win the PGA Seniors' Championship for an unprecedented third consecutive year.
Morgan, 51, is the hot player going into today's first round at the PGA National Golf Club with three victories. Irwin, who won nine times last year, has one victory this year.
Irwin won by 12 strokes last year on a course that proved to be second in difficulty on the Senior Tour, with a stroke average of 75.835. He scored a 14-under-par 24, six shots lower than his winning total of 280 in 1996. His margin was two that year.
The amazing Nicklaus, however, is playing in his backyard and comes into the tournament after an inspiring sixth-place finish at the Masters, a tournament in which he was a contender until the last two holes.
"This is another tournament in which I want to do very well," Irwin said, trying to downplay the significance of the event. "I don't look at the past as this being a three-peat. I don't get into that. I prefer to think about the present and the future."
"I would probably be stupid to say that I wasn't thrilled," Nicklaus said Sunday in Augusta. "But, also, I would be pretty dishonest if I didn't tell you, that I was disappointed. To finish three shots behind with the number of putts I gave away ..."
It was the third of nine titles Irwin won in 1997, matching the Senior Tour record set by Australian Peter Thomson in 1985.
Irwin earned a record $2,343,364.
So far this season, Irwin has one victory, at the Toshiba Senior Classic in Newport Beach, Calif., and never has been out of the top five in five starts.
Still, Irwin feels the role of favorite this week belongs to Gil Morgan.
"No doubt, Gil Morgan is the odds-on favorite," Irwin said. "Let him carry that burden."
Morgan has won three of eight tournaments this year and leads with $674,580 to Irwin's $470,650, second on the money list.
"Gil is off to a great start this year," Irwin said. "My year has been exceptionally good, too, except for a shot here and a shot there. He is making that extra odd putt and I'm not, that's all."
Nicklaus, who was second here last year and won the tournament in 1991, lives five miles away at Lost Tree Village in North Palm Beach. Perhaps he can draw on the same reservoir of self-respect he used in making his phenomenal run at the Masters.
"I guess my own pride," Nicklaus, 58, answered when asked what motivated him at Augusta. "I hadn't played very well lately, and every time I think I'm washed up and everyone else does, too, I seem to play a little better."
Irwin, 52, will be looking to become the second player to win the PGA Seniors three straight times, the first to do so in three consecutive years.
After finishing as the runner-up in 1941, Eddie Williams, a former club professional in Chicago, Cleveland and Louisville, Ky., won the title in 1942 and 1945-46. Because of World War II, there was no tournament in 1943-44. Williams died in 1972 at the age of 81.
Others to be watched included recent past champions Lee Trevino (1992 and 1994), Raymond Floyd (1995) and Larry Nelson, who won the PGA Championship on the same course in 1987. Nelson, who turned 50 last September, earned his first Senior Tour title in February in Sarasota, Fla.

Yoder, newly-elected student body president, and Kaiser, newly-elected vice president, were surrounded by people jumping, laughing and crying. Soaked with champagne, the two embraced.
Chaos reigned at the Delta Tau Delta house last night when the announcements came by way of KJHK, declaring Kevin Yoder and Scott Kaiser victorious in this year's Student Senate elections.
Yoder and Kaiser won this year's election with 2,096 votes. Delta Force presidential and vice presidential candidates Emily Heath and Matt Dunbar's received 1,786 votes.
"When we found out we won, it was like being taken into a hurricane of champagne and people," Kaiser said. "I just want to say, next time someone asks me what the greatest moment in my life is, I'm going to talk about tonight."
Yoder said sleep might not come for awhile, as the coalition celebrated its future in Senate.
He said he was pleased with this year's voter turnout, something he said his coalition worked hard to encourage.
"We've been standing out there talking to people for the last two months. All day in the cold and the rain, doing everything we could to get our positive message out there,"
Yoder said.
Of the 21,989 student eligible to vote, 4,113 cast ballots. Sixty of those votes were ruled ineligible because students voted for too many candidates.
Eligible ballots totaled 4,035,
or 19 percent. Voter percentage
age was up 4 percent from last
year's elections.
Although the president and vice president positions belong to Campus Cause, the race for the 65 Senate seats was won by Delta Force, 34-31.
Renee Greenberg, Fine Arts
candidate for Campus Cause,
lost, but did not put down her
champagne bottle when she
heard the news.
"I think the best person for the job, but obviously a lot of people didn't agree with me," Greenberg said. "They made a mistake, but they haven't heard the last of me, I'm not done yet. I still behind the coalition. I've got up spirits for you."
Kaiser said he was relieved the campaign, one he described as involving a lot of
mudslinging, was over.
"Generally in life, the last place person complains the loudest." Kaiser said.
Scott Sullivan and Mike Walden, this year's student body president and vice president were involved in the mix of people celebrating the Campus Cause victories.
"I think that Kevin and Scott will do a great job and I'm sure they'll be able to work well with all of the other Senators who got elected on both sides," Sullivan said.

Emily Heath and Matt Dunbar, Delta Force candidates for student body president and vice-president, hugged and cried when they heard they had lost the Student Senate election.
"We had a lot of awesome people elected who'll keep up the fight," Heath said. "As we said earlier in the year, this isn't about an election. It's about the work that you'll do and we're not going to stop working."
Delta Force lost to Campus Cause by 310 votes, one vote less than last year when the coalition lost to Unite.
This year Delta Force swept five sections — School of Social Welfare, School of Fine Arts, School of Education, Non-Traditional and Off-Campus. Campus Cause swept six.
More than 250 Delta Force candidates and supporters crowded into Dunbar's house, 420 Indiana St., and spilled onto
One supporter yelled after the announcement of their loss, "We took a majority of the seats, we can still make some noise next year!"

first two winners announced.
A shout went up from the crowd as Nutt and Beck's victories were confirmed.
"We worked really hard and we're happy." Nutt said.
Maria Abatijoglu, Delta Force candidate for Liberal Arts and Sciences, was the only Delta Force candidate to lose the CLAS election. Julei Numrich was the only Campus Cause candidate to win a CLAS seat.
Abatjoglou's name was left off the ballot. The Elections Commission began writing her name onto the ballots five hours after the polls opened on the first day of elections.
One Delta Force candidate who lost the election will appeal to the commission.
"I want to congratulate Julie. I know her personally and she's well-qualified for the job," Abatioglu said. "I can't help but wonder if my name had been on the ballot for those hours, what would have happened."
Audrey Nogle, Elections Commissioner, offered the apologies of the commission.
"The system we have set up to check things between the commission and the coalition obviously broke down," she said. "I think that she has every right to do that (appeal) and I think that's perfectly understandable."

Kansas-bred singer and songwriter Kelley Hunt is stopping in Lawrence for a solo performance on Sunday at the Lawrence Arts Center, 200 W. Ninth St.
The performance, which will begin at 4 p.m., is a one-week stop in the middle of her tour with the Kelley Hunt Band. The show will include an piano performance followed by a reception at the art center. Tickets for the performance are $7 and can be purchased in advance at the Lawrence Art Center or at the door.
Hunt said the solo performance would serve as an outlet for her songwriting outside of the band.
"I only do a solo concert once every two years," she said.
The singer will be performing new, unreleased material. Hunt said her performance may surprise fans who are expecting her traditional blues guitar style.
"I like to see the audience," Hunt said. "When I'm done, I can go out and talk to people."

Police arrest two men in computer thefts
Two Lawrence men were arrested Wednesday night for stealing computer equipment, Lawrence police said.
Moore said a resident of the area observed two men at 8:45 p.m. walking south in an alley in the 1300 block of Tennessee Street. The men were carrying a bag full of what looked like computer items, he said.
When officers arrived, they observed the suspects taking more computer equipment out of a car, Moore said. Officers
made contact with the men and entered the apartment where the men were taking the equipment, Moore said.
"They found a lot of computer equipment, and some drugs," Moore said. "Investigators got some information that may link them to some other crimes."
Moore said the men could become suspects in recent computer thefts in the 1200 block of Rhode Island Street, the 1200 block of Tennessee Street and the 1100 block of Ohio Street. Moore said he did not have the dates of the thefts or the dollar value of the computers.

Jones to appeal dismissal of Clinton harassment suit

Jones said yesterday she would ask an appeals court to reinstate her lawsuit and force President Clinton to stand trial for sexual harassment.
Jones: Announced decision to appeal dismissal.
"In the end, I have not come this far to see the law let men who have done such things dodge their responsibility," a crying Jones said at a news conference with her lawyers.
"I believe what Mr. Clinton did to me was wrong, and the law protects women who are subjected to that kind of abuse of power."
Clinton, on a state visit in Chile, said he felt good about a federal judge's April 1 dismissal of the Jones suit and he declined to comment on the latest turn. "It's a very unusual political environment, but I'm just not going to let the politics get in my way," he said.

Water-sun combination might fuel autos in future
WASHINGTON — Researchers say they have moved a step closer to a cost-effective way to power automobiles with only sunlight and water.
The technology behind a solar-hydrogen-powered car has been known for years, but commercial development remains unrealistic, in part because of the high cost of using solar power to produce the hydrogen from water.
But two scientists at the federal National Renewable Energy Laboratory in Golden, Colo., have developed a one-step device that uses solar power to convert water into a hydrogen fuel.
This could substantially reduce the cost of using solar power to split water into hydrogen and oxygen molecules, a process known as electrolysis, said John Turner, a chemist at the laboratory, who outlined his research in today's issue of Science magazine.
In an interview, Turner said it likely will take years of research and a greater political and economic commitment for solar-hydrogen fuel to become commercially acceptable.
A series of technological breakthroughs in recent years has renewed sharp interest among automakers in hydrogen fuel cells as the eventual replacement for the internal combustion engine. Car manufacturers predict thousands of hydrogen fuel cell vehicles will be available at competitive prices as early as 2004.

Bicycle lanes may be on roll this summer
By Jeremy M. Doherty
johofer at kanson.com
Kansas staff writer
The first real step toward bicycle lanes in Lawrence could be taken during the dog days of summer.
In August, the City Commission is expected to file its 1999 budget with the county clerk. The commission was asked by the Bicycle Advisory Committee last week to finance an engineering study which would examine revamping the downtown streets and determine project's costs.
Kip Curtis, New York graduate student and an organizer of the April 7 bike rally, said lanes easily would fit inside roads to and from the University without causing any inconvenience.
Curtis said an informal survey taken last September by KU Environs revealed which streets were key traffic areas for bicyclists. Two hundred forty-four respondents said the most frequently used roads were Massachusetts, Ninth Tennessee and Kentucky streets.
"You're only talking about the cost of paint," Curtis said. "They could basically do it within the next year."
City Manager Mike Wilden disagreed, saying the supporters of bikie lanes were too optimistic.
"I think it's much too complicated," Wildengain said. "That's like when people say the key to Burger King is 'location, location, location.' There are many more issues on that list that we're trying to deal with. The engineering study is just one of them. It's not just 'bicycle lanes, bicycle lanes, bicycle lanes."
Curtis said he and other cyclists were pleased with the prospect of a bicycle coordinator.
However, Curtis said the commission was missing the point by not pushing harder for the engineering study.
"Providing no funding for them in the first year really ties their hands," he said. "The engineering study is the next step. If they're serious, then they need to fund it now."
Mayor Marty Kennedy said the ideal bicycle coordinator could develop a study and work with planners.

Tornadoes rip through Arkansas, Tennessee
The Associated Press
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Tornadoes tore through Tennessee and Arkansas yesterday, blowing out windows and ripping out roofs in downtown Nashville and splintering mobile homes in rural areas earlier in the day.
Four people, including a young brother and sister, were killed in rural parts of Arkansas and Tennessee.
"People heard it but couldn't see it," Manila, Ark., firefighter Michael White said of the early-morning twister that was cloaked by darkness and sheets of rain.
The earlier storm hit Manila, in northeastern Arkansas about 230 miles west of Nashville, about 3 a.m., killing Casey Lomax, 3, and Brittany Lomax, 5. Their parents were injured.
An hour later, a tornado spawned by the same storm killed Paul and Peggy Kolwyck in Roellen, Tenn., about 50 miles east of Manila. Their bodies were found 200 to 250 feet from their trailer home, which was torn apart.
Yesterday afternoon another tornado struck Nashville. About 100 people were injured. Most of the injuries were from flying glass and none was believed life-threatening.
Gov. Don Sundquist declared Nashville a disaster area. Several state buildings were damaged, including the Capitol and the James K. Polk office building.
The Tennessee Oilers' football stadium, which is about one-third complete, also was damaged.
The twisters were part of a series of storms that hit Arkansas, Illinois, Kentucky and Tennessee late Wednesday and yesterday.
KJHK waiting to spread wings
THE HAWK
KJHX
90.7
By Chris Horton
chorton@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The student-run radio station at the University of Kansas has encountered another obstacle in its attempt to increase its broadcast area.
KJHK-FM 90.7 has been working on upgrading its signal from 100 to 3,500 wattts since June 1997, said Garv Hawke, general manager.
Hawke said the latest setback resulted from a competing application for an upgrade filed by an Emporia station of the same frequency.
The competing station, owned by Family Stations Inc. of Sacramento, Calif., will have a Christian format, but is still awaiting a building license from the Federal Communications Commission.
The deadline for applications to be filed in competition with KJHK's proposed power increase was Dec. 3, 1997, Hawke said.
Family Stations filed its application on Dec. 2.
"The problem is if two stations apply for signals that overlap." Hawke said. The Emporia station's application was for 3000 watts, which would create an overlap with the area covered by the proposed increase for KJHK.
KJHK filed its first application for a wattage upgrade with the FCC on June 2. 1997. Hawke said.
He said he originally thought it would take two months for the station to have its request approved, but waiting on the FCC and bids on equipment necessary for the power increase provided a series of delays before KJHK was notified of the competing application.
"It itseas as if every time we clear a hurdle, a new hurdle appears that we have to overcome," Hawke said. "This is almost four years after we originally started working on it."
Sam Fisk, Galesburg, III., senior and KJHK program director, said
the current delay in the station's proposed wattage increase was unforeseeable. '
"It wasn't meant to happen, but it did," Fisk said. "I guarantee it will happen within two years, but we're shooting for the next five or six months."
Attempting to remedy the situation through FCC procedures would create an undesirable wait, he said.
"If we go through the FCC with this, it's going to be a long process," Fisk said.
The department manager of Family Stations who wished to remain anonymous, said Family Stations did not want to push its way into a new community.
The department manager said Family Stations was going to make every effort to reengineer its facilities to allow KJHK to get its wattage increase.
The overlap in area between the proposed wattages for the two stations was minor enough that JKHJ would probably not have to make any concessions and reduce its desired wattage the manager said.
Regents to address property rights
By Brandon Coplep
bcoplep@kanson.com
Kansan staff writer
With policy, students can retain research
A Kansas Board of Regents task force unveiled its draft policy on intellectual property yesterday at a board meeting in Hadl Auditorium.
The policy, which the Regents' Task Force on Intellectual Property began work on in January, establishes basic principles governing intellectual property rights between universities, faculty, staff and students.
University administrators, faculty and student leaders all spoke favorably about the draft policy, reflecting the general agreement expressed at the January meeting.
"I've been careful to make sure the policy applies to all the works
produced on our campus," said Provost David Shulenburger, addressing the Regents.
The policy creates revenue sharing between faculty who create intellectual property and the universities at which they work, but only after universities recover costs of producing the property.
Students would retain ownership of intellectual property created during undergraduate and graduate course work.
Students employed by universities or faculty would be included in the revenue-sharing provision. However, students voluntarily assisting faculty would receive no intellectual property rights in the resulting works.
Jessica Greis, student body president at Wichita State University and president of the Regents Student Advisory Committee, said students assisting faculty without compensation should be included in the revenue-sharing provision.
hoped each institution would conduct a forum to receive comments and suggestions on the policy.
After gathering input from the universities, the task force will produce a final policy draft. The final policy would undergo an initial reading at the Regents meeting in May, and the Regents plan to take final action in October.
The Regents also heard a report yesterday from a committee recommending a tuition increase of 2.4 percent at all Regents institutions.
Regent Phyllis Robinson said she
The committee also recommended the Regents embark on a program to raise faculty salaries to peer levels. Salaries at Regents schools fall about 12 percent behind peer institutions, and Regent Murray Lull said the committee envisioned a three-year program to bring Regents' salaries up to peer averages.
"We're not asking for the moon and stars, we're just asking for average," he said.

GTA semester limit would hurt students' educations, University
The University of Kansas may implement a policy that would restrict the number of years graduate students can work as teaching assistants to five years.
This policy is a bad idea that only will decrease the quality of education at the University.
the decision whether to hire or fire graduate teaching assistants should belong to the specific departments, not the administration. The departments should have the option of limiting GTAs' contracts. KU administrators should not be allowed to determine an issue so exclusive to the departments.
By mandating the limit on a University-wide basis, the administration is encroaching on the autonomy of departments. Only those who work closely
The average graduate student takes about seven years to complete a doctorate. Outside of the University it is very difficult to get a job that pertains to one's career. As many GTAs are preparing to become college professors, the teaching position provides them with the experience they need to get jobs down the road.
with the GTAs and observe their teaching on a day-to-day basis should have the option of releasing them after five years.
Carrie Wolf, GTA in the Department of Spanish and Portuguese, said that the position offered free tuition and a flexible schedule, both of which helped her maintain a steady focus on her students' educations, as well as her own.
Also, experienced teachers can provide high quality instruction for their undergraduate students. The more expe
rience GTAs have, the more effective they will be as teachers.
Mark horowitz, organizer of the Graduate Teaching Assistants Coalition, said that because graduate funding was decreasing, GTAs were forced to rely on the tuition remission to get through school. If GTAS had to rush through school simply for financial reasons, their educations and their students' educations would suffer. They simply would not be able to dedicate the necessary time to teaching classes.
Graduate and undergraduate students should contact their departments and the KU administration and tell them that this policy is unacceptable. It would hurt the education of every student and would reduce the quality of the University.

Dissenting: GTA semester limit good
The University of Kansas administration would be doing no harm in imposing a 10-semester teaching limit on graduate teaching assistants.
Teaching assistants work hard and are overused and often under appreciated by University administrators. Teaching Assistants deserve a pat on the back for their dedication.
But they don't deserve to be teaching assistants for the rest of their lives. There must be a time to move on, and a 10-semester limit ensures that would happen.
Being a teaching assistant is a full-time job, but not a long-term position. Teaching assistants benefit the University by leading classes the University cannot find or afford for a professor to teach. In turn, teaching
assistants get experience in front of a classroom and make money, albeit a small amount.
But there is no reason this relationship should last more than 10 semesters. Being a teaching assistant should not be looked upon as a long term job and yet that is what it is increasingly being viewed as.
The pay may be small at the University, but as teaching assistants fight for health care, increased salaries and unlimited time to do the job, it is slowly becoming more than it was originally intended. It was supposed to be a road taken on the path toward education, but is starting to become a rest stop.
Ten semesters, or five years, is long enough.
blood. Some assistants opposed to the limit argue it would take away experienced teaching assistants and allow inexperienced teachers to jump in. This, those opposed argue, would lower the level of education.
But those who argue this forget that at one time, they too were inexperienced. New assistants deserve a shot at getting the experience they seek and need, and a 10-semester limit guarantees that new openings would continuously be created.
The limit also opens positions to new
A 10-semester limit wouldn't hurt education at the University, it would enhance it.
Teaching assistants deserve praise for their hard work, but they don't deserve unlimited job security. A 10 semester limit would hurt no one.

Perspective
Acceptance of apathy bodes badly for society
Let students believe what they want. Editorialist after editorialist and column ist after columnist have urged students to get up and go, to make a difference, and to have their voices heard
Well, pshaw. That's right. I said pshaw.
Clay McCusition opinion@kansan.com
First, and this is with no disrespect to the esteemed editors of The University Daily Kansan, if you let the Opinion page tell you how to live, you've got problems.
Second, I don't see the problem with apathy. If those who control this country refuse to consider that the young may have contributions to make, the young are entitled to their apathy.
I don't know if I'm being ironic or serious, but I do know that I'm irritated. This generation has every right to be as apathetic and mindless as possible. We're not naturally apathetic and mindless, but the times in which we live and the circumstances in which we've grown up have made many of us take that path. We're children of the baby boomers — the people who decided to "Just Say Yes" to drugs, sex and rock 'n' roll in the '60s and then forbade us from even considering the same things in the '90s.
We grew up in the '80s, a decade with a doddering president who thought contact with space aliens was a pretty neat idea, and a time when greed, lust and mindless consumerism were considered virtues. We were products of families split apart by divorces, school systems that seemed dedicated to lowering their standards and an entertainment industry set on sucking every last bit of soul we had left out of our bodies.
It's a wonder that anyone in my generation
cares. We are only the third generation to grow up in "the modern world." Those who lived through World War II came first. Then came their children, the boomers (those who defined youth and never have grown up). Who are we, then? We can't act old — our grandparents have that covered for now. But we can't act young either, because our parents are too busy grasping at their last tepid hormonal surges.
It's not that apathy is right, or is in some way a desirable state of being. If every student were dedicated to promoting and improving the University and our nation, I would be elated. I understand, though, why apathy is the only option for some. The leader of our nation — a younger man now, not the lovable grandfather figure of the '80s — is the subject of daily news reports that would make any decent man or woman feel queasy. Is this the system we're supposed to be part of? Is this the country in which we take pride?
Activism and volunteerism are the answers for some. I wonder, though, what individual idealism can accomplish in this day and age. If the system in which we live is fatally flawed, can anyone working within it truly help anyone else? It's a question that each young person must decide on his or her own.
To me, each individual must try to make a difference in some way. It's why we are in college. We attend the University of Kansas to prepare for the future. We plan to do more in times to come than making money and savoring hedonistic pleasures. We plan to improve our lives and the lives of others by rising above the shallow values we have been taught.
I understand, however, why some of you might disagree. I understand why some of you would want to ignore the world around you and the choices it entails. I grieve, though, for the age that has made such apathy a viable and true choice.

Titanic would be better if it were Star Wars
James Cameron and Leonardo DiCaprio have duped us all. They've brainwashed us into actually believing that *Titanic* is better than the greatest blockbuster of all time.
Better than the greatest book Star Wars. We need to clear our heads and rethink that idea.
Here, let me help you compare the two movies.
MATTHEW HOPKINS
Boy, was *Titanic* too long. It may have been the shortest 3 1/2 hours of my life, but that first hour was a snoozer. Star Wars, on the other hand, wisely was split into three different stories and only took about 20 minutes in each film to set up the plot. George Lucas knew about our short attention spans and accompo-
Aaron Marvin opinion@kansan.com
named us, unlike a certain Titanic director. Star Wars 1. Titanic 0
By the time Titanic made its outlandish debut its budget had multiplied to about $250 million the most expensive movie ever made. In 1977, Star Wars' budget totaled a measly $11 million. Even if we factor in inflation, Star Wars would not come close to reaching Titanic's astronomical budget. And why would it want to? Star Wars' special effects, where Lucas spent most of the budget, are astounding audiences even today, 21 years after the movie's debut. Even when Titanic sinks (I hope I didn't ruin the ending for you), the special effects don't compare to when the rebels destroy the Death Star. Star Wars 2, Titanic minus 1 (its insanely expensive budget cost a point).
Now let's compare how each movie's respective behemoth structure, the ship and the Death Star, meets its maker. In *Titanic*, the ship sinks and hundreds of people die. But in *Star Wars*, the Death Star blows up, more than likely killing hundreds of thousands of people. While those hundreds of thousands on the Empire's planet destroyer may have been bad guys, the
sheer number outweigh those in *Titanic*. Plus, anything that blows up in a movie always wins a battle of comparisons. It's U.S. Bill S2A3CH110, the law of action flicks. Really, I'm not kidding. Look it up. *Star Wars 3.* *Titanic* minus 1.
Next up to bat is *Titanic* Leonardo DiCaprio. He's got millions of screaming teen-agers behind him, chanting his name. He's up against *Star Wars* Harrison Ford, who has maintained his heartthrob status for nearly 25 years. DiCaprio begins to sweat. He knows that he will take a back seat to the next big hunk. Ford knows this and smiles, and thousands of baby boomers throw themselves at him. *Star Wars 4*, *Titanic* minus 1.
And how about bad guys, you say? Well,
Titanic has Billy Zane, who plays one heck of a butthead. But unfortunately for Zane, Star Wars
has the king of bad guys, Darth Vader. The Lord of Sith could kick Zane's butthead without even firing up his light saber. Star Wars 5, Titanic minus 1.
All that is left is the music. Titanic's soundtrack has sold millions of copies. It's #1 on Billboard's Top 40. Celine Dion sings a song for it. Then there is the Star Wars soundtrack. It has sold thousands of copies. It was never in the Top 40. And Dion didn't sing a song for it. This is a tough one. But, since all of Dion's songs sound the same and all her videos show lots of close-ups of her looking unduly forlorn, Star Wars takes the prize. Star Wars 6. Titanic minus 1.
The king of all blockbusters did not deserve to be dethroned by Cameron's over-priced, too-long Titanic. The final score, 6 to minus 1, says it all. Titanic just doesn't compare to the movie it sunk in ticket sales. Maybe if Cameron had spent less time brainwashing the public and more time fixing parts of his movie, namely replacing the ship with the Death Star, Zane with Darth Vader and the title with Star Wars, he would have fared better.

use of endorsements in paper hypocritical
The inter-University Daily Kansan memo that went out last Monday said something to the effect that the "Kansan's independence had been put in jeopardy." Although KU students were not allowed the whole story of Andy Obermuller's release from the Kansan, the majority of students are smart enough to know that the dismissal was because of partisan politics. Although Obermueller was an editor, writing only editorials (a.k.a his own opinions), he was dismissed without a second thought. Imagine my amazement when, upon opening the

I don't mind the editorial board endorsing candidates. I just mind the hypocrisy of Obermeller's dismissal combined with yesterday's editorials.
Kansan Tuesday, I saw actual, no-doubt-about-it endorsements coming from the editorial board. I can see why Obermueller was released. He showed partisan support for Campus Cause, and the Kansan overwhelmingly supported Delta Force. Let me substantiate that. It supported Delta Force in the ratio of 2.27.1. There were 41 DeltaForce endorsements and 18 Campus Cause. Partisan politics are wonderful, aren't they?
Editor's note: The Kansan traditionally has run Senate endorsements before elections.
The editorial board, which votes on the candidates, is composed of students from various backgrounds, ethnicities and majors. The editorial board's members are not on the news staff and do not influence news coverage. The editorial board voted on candidates without knowledge of the candidates' political affiliations.
For presidential and vice presidential endorsements, personal interviews were conducted for the editorial board, and the Kansan editor and managing editors participated in the vote.

Seminar to focus on Initiative 2001
Provost and faculty meeting to discuss GTA semester limits
By Gerry Doyle
gdoyle@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The provost, along with University of Kansas department heads and deans, will take the initiative today to discuss the future of education at the University.
A half-day workshop will begin at 1:30 this afternoon in the Kansas Union, said assistant provost Sandra Gautt. The seminar is a biannual effort that gives the department heads a chance to communicate with the provost.
In the past, two or three department
chairmen or chairwomen have gone to the American Council on Education meeting, then relayed the meeting's events to the other departments, she said. This year, the seminar will concentrate on University programs.
"It will focus on areas that department chairs had an interest in," Gautt said. "It's really for them. One of the real purposes is to give them a chance to talk with the other department chairs, and the other is to dialogue about other campus issues."
The main issue discussed will be the Initiative 2001 committee findings, she said.
A. C. Genova, chairman of the philosophy department, said he expected the administration would talk mostly about that issue.
However, the issue many department chairmen and chairwomen want to see discussed is the graduate
teaching assistant 10-semester limit, Genova said.
"Ianticipate that Shulenburger will talk most about the reports on Initiative 2001," he said. "We would like to address the issue of limitations on GTAS, particularly in the humanities departments. It's not a bad idea as such, but to balance the limits, we need to offer fellowships. Then it would be fine — they could go full time. Without it, we're leaving departments in an extremely bad position."
The Initiative 201 discussion will be balanced with talk of the GTA limitation situation, said Richard Hardin, chairman of the English department.
It takes graduate teaching assistants in humanities more than five years on average to receive their degrees, Hardin said. He said the policy might prevent programs from obtaining
much-needed and experienced GTAs.
"The length of time they are here is related to the length of time they're supporting themselves with freshman and sophomore classes," he said. "They'll have to leave the program earlier than in the past."
Horowitz said the policy kept individual departments from making their own decisions.
Mark Horowitz, Springfield, Mass., graduate student and Graduate Teaching Assistant Coalition organizer, said hopefully, the policy could be changed.
"It speaks for the administration becoming more central — that doesn't bode well," he said. "The departments should make their own decisions. We are not saying that we want to keep GTAs at KU forever. But if the administration makes a rule, they can change it."

Kaw ranks high among dirtiest rivers
With recent widely publicized battles regarding dredging on the river and disputes with Nebraska for water rights, the Kaw hardly needed attention drawn to its pollution. But American Rivers, a Washington D.C. river-conservation group, published a report on April 6 ranking the 20 rivers most endangered by pollution. The Kaw was no. 20.
The Kansas river may be dying from pollution, but it's certainly not dying for attention.
Scott Faber, spokesman for American Rivers, said the Kaw was included because it wasn't up to current pollution standards, which he said were under attack from government and industry.
"According to the EPA, most of the Kansas River is not meeting it's designated use standards, because of the presence of toxic pollution," Faber said.
By Graham K. Johnson gjohnson@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
Don Huggins, senior scientist at the Kansas Biological Survey who has studied the river's pollution levels, said there were problems, particularly with the levels of fecal coliform bacteria.
Huggins said there were two regulatory designated use standards for rivers: contact and noncontact. The depth of the river determines the designated use standard.
"The coliform bacteria count is used as an indicator of the potential presence of pathogenic organisms." Huggins said. "That count is well above secondary contact standards."
Rivers which are deep enough for people to be completely submerged in are contact rivers. Coliform counts are not to exceed 200 organism per 100 milliliters in contact rivers. Secondary contact rivers are shallow rivers to be used for canoeing and other surface recreation. Their standard is 2,000 organism per 100 milliliters.
Charles Benjamin, legislative coordinator for the Kansas Natural Resources Council, said most of the problems with fecal coliform bacteria stemmed from Topeka's Oakland Water Treatment Plant. The plant is 70 years old and has been operating without a permit since 1995, because it cannot meet current standards, Benjamin said.
Andrea Repinsky, Olathe junior and member of Friends of the Kaw, a local river conservation group, said people should not have to worry about health risks while using the river.
As a result, Benjamin said, municipal areas with outdated water treatment systems, such as Topeka and
"You shouldn't have to be afraid to touch the river," Repinsky said. "That shouldn't be acceptable in Kansas."
Huggins said the dangers to humans from exposure to bacteria range from dysentery to more serious illnesses.
Johnson County, were trying to avoid and weaken the standards.
"The city commissions don't want to have to go to the voters and say 'we have to raise taxes to meet these standards.'" Benjamin said.
The Kansas River in the Lawrence area is considered a contact river, acceptable for all uses. Huggins said with the bacteria levels as they are, it may not be safe for people to immerse themselves in the river, either accidentally or on purpose.
Municipal and agribusiness groups worked together to pass H.B. 2368, a bill reviewing water quality standards, in last year's Legislature, Benjamin said. He said the main benefit for the farmers was a weaker standard for the herbicide atrazine and a suspension of the ammonia standards, which benefits city treatment plants.
Don Brown, spokesman for the Kansas Department of Health and Environment, said the state had already reached agreements with cities to implement disinfection processes and even the Oakland plant should be refitted by the year 2000.
Brown said the legislation was aimed at balancing costs vs. effectiveness and Kansans shouldn't worry about weaker water standards.
"It's a slow process but we're headed in the right direction," Brown said.

Campus groups to display culture
Festival of Nations and World Expo designed to educate
By Sara Anderson
sanderson@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Students will not have to travel any further than the University of Kansas today to immerse themselves in other cultures.
The International Student Association will sponsor its annual World Expo and Festival of Nations today. The World Expo, an all-day exhibition of international campus groups and clubs, will take place from 9:30 a.m. until 2:30 p.m. in front of Stauffer-Flint Hall.
The Festival of Nations, showcasing different cultural performances, begins at 7 p.m. at Woodruff Auditorium in the Kansas Union. Both events are free and open to the public.
"It's a time for students to stop by on campus and get to know about the different countries," said Tracy Murray, ISA co-cultural chair woman and Wichita junior. "It's a chance to share the different cultures with the campus."
The World Expo will consist of 14 informational tables displaying brochures, national and artistic artifacts and other cultural material from the respective countries and regions.
During the Festival of Nations, performances will include dances, musical selections and skits. Murray said about 12 groups would be participating. She said groups from India, Italy and Greece as
Sandra Rainero, ISA co-cultural chair and Venice, Italy, graduate student, said the show was unique because it was not geared toward one cultural group.
well as other countries would participate in the events.
"The other cultural events target people from their own culture," she said. "We try to bring an international awareness. We're using languages that are international, such as music and dance. We're going beyond the language barriers."
Rainero said the KU international student population had decreased during the last four years from about 3,000 to 1,500. She said many factors including economics and competition with other universities had contributed to the decline.
The events were important to the international campus community because they gave international students a chance to
"It's a really good opportunity because the international community isn't that large," she said. "So it's a good chance for them all to get together."
unify, Murray said.
Rainero said the events gave international students a chance to display their unique cultural backgrounds.
"I hope people get whatever they can," she said. "Maybe it will broaden their interest in a certain country or make them want to travel. Just by showing up you've learned something."
Murray said she hoped students enjoyed and learned from the programs.
"It's a chance to show who we really are, how we are different and how we are similar," she said. "We really hope American students come because it's the only occasion we get to show who we really are without words."
Pride Week geared to celebrate diversity
Activities directed at entire campus, not just minorities
By Sara Anderson
sanderder@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Next week, students at the University of Kansas shouldn't keep their pride in the closet.
Pride Week, designated to help showcase diversity at the University, begins Monday and runs through Saturday. Events include speakers, a drag queen show and a pride rally and march. All events are open to the public.
"The week is focused on the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgendered community, but the speakers we're bringing are not just going to address the gay community," said Corrina Beck, co-coordinator of Pride Week and Kansas City, Mo., junior. "They'll also be taking about race, gender and sex. It's kind of like a stir-fry of minority issues."
Beck said one of the most popular programs was the "Brown Bag Lunch Drag," an event featuring six drag queens from the Kansas City area and a drag king from
the Lawrence area.
"People seem to be most attracted to the drag lunch," she said. "But I can't say one event is better than any other."
Katie Shay, president of Queers and Allies and Leawood freshman, said the events weren't only for members of the homosexual community.
"Students should come because each speaker represents a different aspect of a group of people," she said. "When you hear a speaker, you're not just listening to a queer issue, but something that is personal to them. I'm really excited and think the week will be great."
Pride Week began 20 years ago, Beck said. The first celebration was "Wear blue jeans if you are gay" day. She said the week started including speakers about eight or nine years ago.
Beck said the week was important because it was one of the few times the homosexual community was given significant attention.
"Queer studies in general are not studied much," she said. "The only time we have queer lecturers is during Pride Week."
Beck said she hoped students would learn to appreciate differences during the week.
"The week is a celebration of all our diversity," she said. "I hope other people

Greek houses lend support to AIDS project
By Carl Kaminski
ckaminski@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
The University of Kansas Interfraternity Council and Panhellenic Association served up 100 pounds of spaghetti and handed out 700 cans of Coke to benefit the Douglas County AIDS Project yesterday.
About 600 people paid $3 for a spaghetti dinner at the Sigma Nu house, 1501 Sigma Nu Place, for IFC's and Panhellenic's spring philanthropy. Proceeds from the dinner benefit the Douglas County AIDS Project.
In addition to yesterday's dinner, the philanthroony will include a walk tomorrow
At the dinner, students and faculty also heard Dennis Dailey, profess of social welfare, speak about AIDS and sexuality, and Pam Casagrande of the project talk about her daughter, who is HIV-positive.
"We have no idea what he's going to talk about," said Ryan Sheahan, IFC vice president for philanthropy and community service, of Dailey. "He wanted free rein."
Casagrande spoke about what it was like to be a parent of an HIV-positive child and about some of the recent medical news regarding HIV.
The dinner was open to the entire University, said Maggie Ball, Panhellenic Association vice president for philanthropy and community service.
She said filers were posted in every University living organization and around Lawrence.
Tomorrow's walk also is open to the public.
Students can register for the walk between 9 and 10 a.m. tomorrow at the Lawrence Recreation Center at South Park, said Becky Hollady, Panhelenic Association spring philanthropy chair and Norman, Okla., senior. Students can get sponsors or sponsor themselves for $5, she said.
Ball, Overland Park junior, said the goal of this year's philanthropy was to raise $6,000 for the project, but she expected it to make even more than that. She said the philanthropy could raise between $8,000 and $9,000.
Last year's spring philanthropy was Dance for Heart and was not as successful as its sponsors had hoped, said Sheahan, Ft. Collins, Colo., sophomore. He said he expected this year's efforts to go better than last year's dance.
"Over the past couple of weeks I've heard so much enthusiasm about it," he said.
"We want to adopt DCAP," Ball said.
Ball and Sheahan said they hoped to make the dinner and AIDS walk an annual philanthropy.
The food for the dinner was donated by Cisco and Paisano's Ristorante, and the Coke was donated by Coca-Cola, Ball said.

Aerospace engineering launches new computers
By Emily C. Forsyth
eforsyth@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
University of Kansas aerospace engineering students will gain an advantage against the competition with the addition of a new computer-aided design lab.
The lab, situated in 3040 Learned Hall, will be unveiled at 10 a.m. today during a private dedication ceremony.
Mark Ewing, associate professor of aerospace engineering and design lab committee chairman, said the lab would be a tremendous addition to the program.
"We think it's going to be the ideal teaching facility for any course dealing with computers," Ewing said. "The most important part is that it has all the software aerospace engineering students would use."
Students will be able to work at the lab's 24 computer stations arranged in amphitheater-style seating while the professor works from a computer linked to a 7-by-7
Classes conducted in the lab will include flight dynamics, structural analysis, computer-aided graphics and aircraft and spacecraft preliminary design.
Ewing said students would be able to follow each step of the lecture on their computer screens.
"You get immediate feedback," Ewing said. "You can try things right there in real time."
The lab cost was about $160,000, which included remodeling and equipment. The money was donated by aerospace engineering alumni.
The lab will be named in honor of alumni John C. Brizendine, Walter R. Garrison and Alan M. Mulally, who contributed about half of the funds. The remaining funds were donated by other aerospace engineering alumni.
"For things like this, we're happy people from outside the University have stepped up and recognized a need."
"We never could have done this with our technology fee or the state funding alone," Ewing said.
Ewing said the idea of the lab had been discussed for about three years and that he was pleased to see it materialize.
"I'm just happy that it's finally happening," he said. "The room will be ready for its first class in June."
David Downing, chairman of the department, said the lab would affect the way courses were taught in the future.
"Most of the courses in the program will soon be taught in multi-media since we have this capability." Downing said.
Downing said this technology was vital in helping KU students excel in the aerospace engineering field.
"We think we're the best aerospace vehicle design program in the country," Downing said. "The competition is getting fierce and this will help us stay in our position of leadership."

Corbin, scholarship halls safest
Oliver Hall, which had the third-highest number of residents in the fall with 655, has had 60 offenses reported in the building, according to KU Office of Public Safety and Department of Student Housing data.
McCollum Hall, the largest hall with 749 fall-semester residents, has had 36 reported offenses in the building.
Most of the offenses have been property crimes, such as thefts and burglaries, said Sgt. Chris Keary of the public safety office. Other offenses have included phone harassments, false fire alarms and possession of drug paraphernalia, Keary said.
The University of Kansas' third most-populous campus living unit has reported the largest number of criminal offenses this academic year.

interesting movie," Calderon said. "The topic is a popular one on campus."
"It makes you feel like you're part of the insanity in the movie," he said. "It will leave you questioning a lot of things."
Hyman said LeGros himself was a human guinea pig at a medical research facility in Austin. He said the experience was what inspired the script for Guinea Men. He said LeGros gave a new meaning to "go to bed with a movie." LeGros did the editing and sound composition for Guinea Men on his personal home computer and worked with an unknown cast.
"Tom is one of the most laid-back people I know," Hyman said. "He's kind of reserved, but always has a smile on his face, besides being totally talented."
To keep costs low, LeGros shot the 16 mm-movie at night and on weekends so the cast could continue to work their regular jobs.
Other movies by LeGros are Dick and Jane (1986), Steve Gets a Job (1994) and Psycho-boy and Friends (1995).

- Independent movie Guinea Men will be screened at 7 p.m. tomorrow at Woodruff Auditorium in the Kansas Union.

KKK hand delivers message
Klan fliers find lawns as wrap for local papers
The Associated Press
SAN FRANCISCO — The most militant wing of the Ku Klux Klan has a new tactic to spread its racist message — wrapping leaflets around free local papers and delivering them door to door, to the dismay of publishers and customers.
There may be little either can do to stop the leaflets, which have been distributed in California, Pennsylvania, Texas and North Carolina.
The latest incident occurred this week in Santa Rosa, 50 miles north of San Francisco, where residents woke up to find the Classified Gazette on their doorsteps, sheathed in an epithet-laced KKK leaflet vowing to deport every
African back to Africa where they belong.
"We're just using our constitutional right to get our message out," Jeff Berry, national imperial wizard of the American Knights of the Ku Klux Klan, the group named in the leaflet, said from his Butler, Ind., headquarters. "They can tell us to stop, but until they show us a law, we're not."
The Classified Gazette which distributes 35,000 free papers in Sonoma County, said it had received 50 phone complaints. The KKK apparently took stacks of the paper from store racks, wrapped the leaflets around it and threw it into yards.
"One woman called and said her 8-year-old granddaughters picked this up and brought it in. She was very angry, "office manager Kathy Noble said. "Another man said, 'I'm Caucasian, but my son-in-law is black and my daughter-in-law is Asian, and they're livid, and I'm livid for them."
Santa Rosa police Cmdr. Scott Swanson said because of the nature of the material, the incident could be a hate crime.
"We are looking to see if the message in the fliers violates criminal law," he said.
San Francisco FBI spokesman George Grotz said there was no clear violation of the law, and unless one could be shown, the leaflets were covered by the First Amendment.
The American Knights of the KKK used the same tactic last November in Odessa, Texas, stuffing a recruitment flier into the local Dollar Saver. And the Tri-County News in Mercer County, Pa., was hit last month.
Mark Potok of Klanwatch, the anti-KKK arm of the Southern Poverty Law Center in Montgomery, Ala., described the American Knights as the fastest-growing Klan organization in the country and the most aggressive.
"We're just using our constitutional right to get our message out."

virulent group out there.
national imperial wizard of the American Knights of the Ku Klux Klan
The American Knights spurn the softer line espoused by some modern groups, Potok said, and openly call for violence against blacks, Jews and gays. The leaflet distributed in Santa Rosa follows that line, promising to solve the (epithet) problem by FORCE!
At the Classified Gazette, a saleswoman Josephine Shafer said she was revolted by the KKK literature.
"How people get this way really blows my mind," she said. "I thought people were better than that."
German police gather DNA en masse
Citizens volunteer to give saliva in search of killer
The Associated Press
BERLIN — Newspapers published the call: Police hunting a young girl's killer needed help from the 18,000 men aged 18-30 in rural, northwestern Germany where the victim lived.
Thousands of men arrived last week and opened their mouths. With cotton swabs, police took saliva samples to record the men's DNA — the genetic fingerprint that could identify who raped, stabbed and strangled 11-year-old Christina Nytsch.
Blanket DNA testing has been used only occasionally in Europe, mostly as a last resort after long investigations and usually in small communities.
German police in the city of Cloppenburg took the procedure further. They collected saliva within weeks of the killing. Their attempt to screen men from 12 towns and villages was the largest voluntary DNA test to date.
DNA testing is widely accepted. primarily because of Germany's increasing push to fight sexual crimes against children.
By next week, federal lawmakers are expected to approve a national database of DNA from convicted sex criminals. The information can be compared to biological evidence found at crime scenes, such as saliva, semen, blood or tissue. Police in Germany's 16 states could then cross-reference data, a tactic used in Austria, Britain, the Netherlands and the United States.
"Several recent cases, especially sexual crimes against children, showed that police in the German states needed to start working together," says Helga Schumacher, representative of the Federal Commission for Data Protection.
Voluntary DNA screening of innocent people is another matter, however. Police in Cloppenburg said they took the extraordinary measure immediately because they believe the killer remains in the region — and he has struck before.
Christina disappeared March 16 on her way home from an indoor swimming pool. Her body was discovered five days
later in woods near her hometown of Struecklingen, a village of 3,500, where strangers stick out, and crime is rare.
DNA from a knife at the scene matched DNA from semen taken from a girl who was raped two years ago.
Voluntary DNA testing has worked in small communities where peer pressure drove everyone to participate, including the killer.
Cloppenburg held its screening last week. The results are expected in several weeks. Negative data will be destroyed.
"It wasn't a question for me," 24-year-old machine repairman Ludger Wulf said after having his cheek swabbed. "I've got nothing to fear."
But of the 18,000 men sought, only 12,000 participated.
Critics said zealous police made their search too wide.
The Rev. Ulrich Bahlmann, a Catholic priest in the town's only church, said men wholeheartedly took part to prove their innocence.
"People don't trust each other here anymore, because one could be a murderer," he said. "Everyone agreed the test was a good idea."
Prime-time TV shows increase violent content
WASHINGTON — Prime-time television is getting more violent, a major new survey issued today says.
The Associated Press
About two-thirds of prime-time network and basic cable channel programs shown in June 1997 contained violent scenes, compared with about half of such programs in October 1994, researchers from four universities found.
"For those who think the TV violence problem is solved, it is not," Daniel Linz, one of the study's researchers, said. Linz is chairman of the law and society program at the University of California, Santa Barbara.
The prime-time figures cover the hours of 8 to 11 p.m. (Eastern and Pacific time) on
weekdays and 7 to 11 p.m. on Sundays (7-10 p.m. Central time weekdays).
Across the entire broadcast and cable schedules — days, nights and weekends — the share of programs containing violence stayed about the same, 61 percent, during the 32-month period.
The UCLA study, released in January, said networks had tempered the amount and nature of violence on their shows, except for the new "shockumentary" type shows featuring grisly content.
"The simple, undeniable fact is that the vast majority of violence on television is on pay cable."
"The simple, undeniable fact is that the vast majority of violence on television is on pay cable," Wharton said.
The NCTA-commissioned report also found most violence on television is glamorized and sanitized. Nearly 40 percent of the violent incidents on television are initiated by "good" characters likely to be perceived as attractive role models.
Pay cable networks televised the highest percentage of programs with violent content, averaging 92 percent since 1994, the study found.
Dennis Wharton Spokesman for the National Association of Broadcasters
Researchers at UC Santa Barbara, the University of North Carolina, the University of Texas and the University of Wisconsin conducted the study. The researchers previously have issued two studies on TV violence commissioned by the NCTA. The total cost of the three studies: $3.5 million.
Violence is defined as any overt depiction of a credible threat of physical force or the actual use of such force intended to physically harm an animate being or group of beings. It does not include verbal or psychological abuse.
"These patterns teach children that violence is desirable necessary and painless."
The long-term negative consequences of violence, meanwhile, are shown in only 15 percent of the programs, the study found.
The study, the largest of its kind, was commissioned by the National Cable Television Association. It was based on a sample of 10,000 hours of programs on 23 channels — a mix of cable and broadcast — from October 1994 to June 1997.
Dennis Wharton, a spokesman for the National Association of Broadcasters, said the findings contradict a network-financed study by UCLA researchers. Wharton said the study found violence on broadcast television had declined steadily during the last three years.
content in shows.
said Dale Kunkel, another of the researchers and an associate professor of communications at UC Santa Barbara. "We need to see more anti-violence messages in TV shows."
The study concluded that age-based TV ratings do not provide adequate information about the presence of violent
The TV industry began rating shows for age appropriateness in January 1997. But under pressure from parent groups, child advocates and politicians, most of the TV industry switched to more detailed ratings in October of last year.
ABC, CBS, Fox and most cable networks now use age-based ratings but also flag shows for violence, sex, bad language and suggestive dialogue with the letter notations V, S, L and D. NBC still uses the age-based ratings, including TV-PG, parental guidance suggested, and TV-MA, for mature audiences only.
NBC has said its viewers were satisfied with the ratings and the detailed advisories it runs and has no plans to change.
NCTA President Decker Anstrom said cable companies would remain committed to providing families with a wide range of quality programming and the tools to help parents make the right viewing choices.
Channels in the sample included affiliates of ABC, CBS, NBC and Fox, independent TV stations, basic cable networks A&E, AMC, BET, the Cartoon Network, Disney, the Family Channel, Lifetime, MTV, Nickelodeon, TNT, USA and VH-1, and pay cable channels Cinema, HBO and Showtime.

Computers to evaluate essays
Teachers to use new programs to score writing
The Associated Press
BOULDER. Colo. — The time-honored college essay — where students are supposed to exhibit concise writing and persuasive arguments — could soon be read and graded by the artificial intelligence of a new computer program.
Some see a savior for overworked teachers, others reassurance for students suspicious their poor grades come from bored, ignorant or vengeful teachers.
Critics say it misses the point that essays teach communication between people.
"I think it's a terrible idea. Education is not about just spewing back information but assimilating it in language," said Mary Burgan, executive director of the American Association of University Professors.
The Intelligent Essay Assesor software, in development for 10 years, is not yet ready for widespread use in the classroom. Its creators have applied for a patent and want feedback from educators.
"The program has perfect consistency in grading, an attribute that human graders almost never have," said Darrell Laham, a doctoral student at the University of Colorado who helped with the development. "The system does not get bored, rushed, sleepy, impatient or forgetful."
Thomas Landauer, a university psychology professor who worked on the software, was to present it today at a meeting of the American Educational Research Association in San Diego. Peter Foltz, an assistant psychology professor at New Mexico State University, also helped.
This program does more than just count words or analyze mechanics and grammar, like earlier essay scorers. Landauer said it mathematically determines how well students understand the material they are taught.
he said. "It's most appropriate when testing knowledge content rather than elegance of writing. It assesses whether the student understands what's in the textbook."
"It's useful for all subjects."
It understands through a new type of artificial intelligence, Laham said.
"In a sense, it tries to mimic the function of the human brain," he said.
First, the program is fed information through online textbooks or other sources. It determines mathematically what words should appear, but is flexible enough to accept words with similar meanings, such as physician and doctor.
Then the professor grades enough essays to provide a good statistical sample, and feeds those results to the computer. Laham said student essays received the same grade as the human-graded essays to which they were most closely matched.
The grade on the new program, however, is still out.
"It would be cheaper and more reliable. But we need to be careful about using it. This country overvalues standardires responses," said Monty Neill, acting executive director at Fair Test, a Cambridge, Mass.-based nonprofit group that advocates testing and assessment reform.
"Machines have real trouble with unusually creative students," he said.
"Without interaction, there's no teaching." she said.
Burgan, the head of the professors' association, said a teacher fails to connect with students if he or she assigns an essay and then passes the grading off to a computer.
Some students would rather be confident their grade is fair, Foltz said. When he asked students in his undergraduate psychology classes if they would rather a computer or a person graded their papers, they all chose the computer. He did not say what reasons they gave.
"That's just weird," said Katrina Martin. A 21-year-old English and journalism major at Colorado. "I want a professor to look at my essay so that I know what I'm writing is correct.
"I don't want some computer to just spit out a grade," she said.
The Associated Press
HARTFORD, Conn. — A would-be doctor who claimed he was black and lepers had subsidized his education is suing Princeton for revealing those fabrications to medical schools. He admits he lied but argues Princeton violated his privacy.
Rommel Nobay graduated from Princeton in 1989. He was accepted to Vanderbilt University's medical school in 1991, and to Georgetown, Tufts and Dartmouth in 1994.
But he claims the schools withdrew their offers or pressured Nobay to withdraw his applications after being notified of discrepancies in his record by his Princeton adviser, Jane Y. Sharaf.
Nobay admitted in federal court this week he had lied about academic achievements and other elements of his life. For example, he was not a National Merit
Scholar and a family of lepers didn't donate half their beggings to support his dream.
Nobay sued Princeton in 1995, claiming defamation, invasion of privacy and breach of contract.
"The case isn't about Rommel's credibility. It's about whether Princeton respects or even understands the right to privacy," his lawyer, Norm Pattis, said Wednesday during a break in trial of the lawsuit. He said his client had lied and told half-truths out of insecurity and fear.
Nobay, 30, claims Princeton had an implicit contract with students to provide accurate, but positive recommendations.
Princeton argues it is protected by qualified privilege, which is typically sought in cases in which it is necessary to provide true information to third parties or the public. If granted, defendants are liable only if actual malice can be proven.
Dean Nancy Malkiel testified that Princeton was obligated to alert the medical schools about Nobay's problems with being truthful.
"I think the schools continue to count on that fact ... that they're getting the straight scoop from medical advisers." she said.
Nobay was born in New York but lived in Kenya until he was 5, when his father took a banking job in the United States. His parents are Kenyans, whose ancestors were from the Portuguese colony of Goa, now part of India. He says his heritage is a mix of Portuguese, Arabic and black African. He was raised in Los Angeles.
During a deposition last year, Nobay was asked about his race by a Princeton lawyer.
"Whether I have Negroid blood in me is basically what you're asking, and the answer is I don't know," Nobay said. "I believe I do."
Fewer Black students use World Wide Web
WASHINGTON — Caucasian students in high school and college are far more likely than African Americans to have home computers and use the World Wide Web, even after accounting for differences in income, according to a new study.
The Associated Press
"A significant segment of our society is in danger of being denied equal access to the Internet," the authors said.
The study, published today in Science magazine, found Caucasian people in general are more likely to have a computer at home and to have used the Web recently. But the biggest disparities surfaced when comparing students, the most disturbing instance yet of when race matters in Internet access, the study said.
"We can't explain that by income," sala Donna L. Hoffman, an associate professor at Vanderbilt University, who helped write the study.
"There must be some racial or cultural or social factors," she said. "It really needs to be looked into."
The study indicated 73 percent of Caucasian students had a computer at their homes — a key indicator of frequent Internet use — but only 33 percent of African-American students did. The gap remained even when researchers accounted for differences in income.
Among all ages, 44 percent of Caucasians owned a home computer, compared with 29 percent of African Americans.
The study was based on telephone interviews of 5,813 people in December 1996 and January 1997 by Nielsen Media Research. There was no margin of error provided.
"The Internet is taking an increasingly important role in the global economy." Hoffman said. "It's obvious that as ... more and more information is available online, you're not going to be able to participate. The rewards of this democratic communication that people are suggesting will come from the Internet ... won't be available to everyone."
The study indicated 59 percent of Caucasians had used the Web in the past six months, compared with 31 percent of African Americans. The gap was widest among races when people did not own a home computer. Researchers said that suggests Caucasian students without their own computers are finding other places — such as schools, libraries or cybercafes — to access the Internet.
"There must be some racial or cultural or social factors. It really needs to be looked into." Donna Hoffman
Vanderbilt researcher/author
"When there is no home computer, white students are more than twice as likely to have used the Web in the past six months and more than three times as likely to have used the Web in the past week," Hoffman said. "That is an astonishing difference. White students, but not African American students, are finding other ways to access the Internet. It's a very disquieting result."
Among students who had access to a computer at home, there were only negligible differences in Web use.
Hoffman said the report showed the importance of creating Internet access for African Americans in places such as libraries and community centers.
Researchers also said African-American families were nearly twice as likely as Caucasian families to say they planned to purchase a home computer within the next six months. In addition, slightly more African Americans than Caucasians said they were interested in Web TV or other devices that would offer inexpensive Internet access. That is significant, the report said, because it shows African Americans want access to the Web.
Jamal White, an African-American engineering student at Iowa State University, remembered buying a home computer in high school, which he still uses to send email to his family in Washington, D.C., and for term-paper research. His family bought a computer shortly after he took his to college.
"To some extent, you could tell a larger number of the white students, percentage-wise, did own computers," he said. "I guess I wasn't fully aware of it then."
But White said he could not guess why the racial disparities existed.
Hoffman said the study also suggested far more African American are using the Web — about 5 million as of January 1997 and 1.4 million within the past week — than previous estimates that 1 million African Americans were using the Internet.

Kansas chasing Wichita State legend
QUARTER DOG DAY.
Today is "Quarter Dog Day" at Hoglund-Maupin Stadium. The baseball team will take on Missouri at 7 p.m.
Hot dogs are 25 cents, and there is no admission fee for students.
The team also will play Missouri at 2 p.m. tomorrow and 1 p.m. Sunday.

The Kansas baseball team led 6-5 in the bottom of the ninth inning against No. 9 Wichita State on Wednesday night in Wichita.
Wichita State left fielder Casey Davis's game-winning single assured the Shockers' (29-3) deliverance and taught the Jayhawks (17-20) a cruel lesson in tradition — the kind of tradition that separates great programs from average programs.
Wichita State's state flows from 20 consecutive 40-win seasons and a
1989 National Championship since head coach Gene Stephenson revived the program in 1978. Major League players such as Joe Carter, Mike Lansing and Darrene Dreifort have starred during the years in Shocker uniforms.
In contrast, Kansas has just two 40- win seasons in 107 years of baseball.
"We convince our players they'll win," Stephenson said. "Even when we play poorly, like against Kansas Wednesday night, we'll come back and win. We never give up and that's the difference."
When Stephenson arrived at Wichita State in 1977, he found nothing. No team, no field, no equipment, no tradition.
The birth of Shocker tradition
Eck Stadium-Tyler Field has become a symbol of Stephenson's success at Wichita State. It began as a vacant lot but now holds nearly 6,000 fans with its trademark Astroturf infield and grass outfield.
It also boasts the largest on-campus scoreboard in the country and a press box with four broadcast booths, a game operations booth and a writer's
booth. Stephenson was able to build the ballpark through gifts from wealthy Wichita residents.
"Everything we have built — the stadium, the fans and the tradition — has been piecemealed together," Stephenson said. "Our first field was basically a softball park. We played in the College World Series championship game four years after we got here even though we didn't have bleachers for our field."
Stephenson knew he needed something unique to separate his program from others when recruiting. He installed the Astroturf infield in 1981
and used it to bring in players.
"If you surround yourself with people who believe in what you're trying to do and you have talent yourself, the sky is the limit," Stephenson said. "We used our belief in ourselves to sell this program to players."

KANSAS TENNIS
By Erin Thompson Kansan sportswriter
Kansas coach Roland Thornqvist said the trip to Texas would provide tough matches.
The state of Texas holds the last remaining obstacles in the women's tennis team's quest for an undefeated season in the Big 12 Conference.
The Jayhawks will travel to College Station, Texas, tomorrow to face No. 36 Texas A&M and to Austin, Texas, on Sunday to face the fifth-ranked Texas Longhorns.
The Aggies are coming off a loss to Texas on Wednesday and will celebrate senior day at the team's last home match. The Jayhawks defeated Texas A&M 6-3 last year in Lawrence.
"I know that both A&M and Texas have circled the match against Kansas early in the season," he said. "It's A&M's last Big 12 match. They're going to be ready to play."
"Last year, the match went down to the wire," Tronqvist said. "It's always tough to play at College Station. They have a good crowd and are always a little crowdy."
Texas coach Jeff Moore said the crowd at College Station always provided a tough atmosphere for his teams as well.
"The Aggies are always tough for us, regardless of the circumstances," he said. "Our players coped with the windy conditions and a rowdy crowd (on Wednesday) to close out their matches in impressive fashion."
Texas has won 92 straight conference matches and has not lost a match since April 2, 1991, when the team lost to Texas Christian. If the Longhorns defeat Baylor and Texas Tech tomorrow, the Jayhawks will be the last team for Texas to defeat for a seventh-straight undefeated conference season.
The Jayhawks will seek revenge for two sweeps by the Longhorns last season. Texas defeated Kansas 9-0 during the regular season and 5-0 in the semifinals of the Big 12 Tournament.
"The Longhorns are beating everyone soundly." Trornqvist said. "I'm sure they see Kansas as their last obstacle in another conference sweep."
"We've closed the gap since last year, there's no question." Thonqvist said. "But we're going to play at their home. We're going to have to be ready to play."
Thorngvist said he expected it to be a close match. The Jayhawks defeated William and Mary, which defeated the Longhorns, and Texas defeated Duke, which defeated Kansas.
"She had a good practice and looked really good," Thorngvist said. "We're certainly optimistic, and she should play at least one match."
Kansas should have the service of its top single players player again this weekend. Senior Kylie Hunt has missed the past four matches with an inflamed lung but is expected to return for at least one match this weekend.
Hunt practiced yesterday for an hour and 40 minutes with teammate Kris Sell and served for the first time since she was ill.
Seniors, Paul Pierce honored at banquet
By Tommy Gallagher

Kansas sportwriter
Former Kansas forward Paul Pierce returned to Lawrence on Wednesday to attend the team's annual banquet and reminisce with teammates. By 8 a.m. today, he and his mother will be on a flight back to California.
Pierce, who announced two weeks
ago that he would enter the NBA Draft, said he was nervous about how the Lawrence fans would respond.
"I wanted to get away and spend some time
"Paul has followed his dream, which was to play in the NBA," McGrath said. "My dream was to play at Kansas. And I know that if I had a chance to forego my senior season at Topeka West to play at Kansas, I would have done the same."

Thomas jokingly questioned why he earned Most Improved Player honors.

"This is the second time I've won this award." Thomas said. "I mean, come

by myself," Pierce said. "It was already difficult for me to make the decision to turn pro. But it would have been harder for me to see the same people every day. I didn't know how the fans' reaction would be."
Pierce and the seniors all spoke at the banquet, mostly thanking coaches, family, friends and fans.
Paul Pierce Former Kansas forward
Fans applauded Pierce, who shared the Most Valuable Player award with forward Raef LaFrentz. Pierce said he and his brothers have sifted through potential sports agents for the past two weeks and expect to select one to represent him by Sunday.
Jayhawk fans also said goodbye to three seniors — LaFrentz, Billy Thomas and C.B. McGrath — who finished their careers with a 58-0 record in Allen Field House.
on. Was I really that bad? I know I couldn't have been that bad."
LaFrentz did not deliver as many jabs and punch lines as his teammates, warning the crowd that he had to go to
the bathroom.
Prospect Marlon London, a 6-foot-3 shooting guard from St. Joseph's High School in Chicago, attended the banquet. Williams said the Jayhawks could sign another letter-of-intent sometime soon, possibly today.
London said he would sign with Kansas while in Lawrence, if he enjoyed his visit.
Williams also said the Jayhawks could have another prospect, likely 6-foot-9 small forward Ashante Johnson from Canada (Calif.). Junior College, visit campus fairly soon.
Johnson, who averaged 23 points and 14 rebounds last season, could add depth to the small forward position, where the Jayhawks have only Nick Bradford.
Last night, Kansas fans celebrated the Jayhawks' accomplishments from last season. Now they can look ahead toward the future.

Depth, ability to help receivers catch up
By Kevin C. Wilson
Kansan sportswriter
"It's an area that will be vastly improved," Allen said. "We have some players coming back who gained experience and confidence from last year, and we'll also have some new faces."
The Jayhawks return 11 of the team's top 12 pass receivers from last year's team and will add a highly-rated freshmen to form a potent receiving core for next fall.
An area of instability last season on the Kansas football team, the wide receiver position will be overflowing with qualified personnel next fall.
Coach Terry Allen said that he was optimistic about next season's receiver position.
One of those players who gained invaluable experience last year was junior Michael Chandler.
"We can all catch the ball." Chandler said. "With only two or three of us on the field at once, there will be some tough competition.
Chandler, the team's leading pass catcher from last year (21 receptions, 311 yards), said that he was looking forward to the challenge of earning a spot in the rotation.
Looking to reenter the competition this fall will be sophomore John Gordon, who showed flashes of brilliance as a freshman by snaring 16 passes. But he was held out of competition in 1997 because of a cardiomyopathy and sleep annea.

Allen: Confident that receiving corps will be improved
Although he is not able to participate in spring practice, Gordon is expected to be
ready at the beginning of next season,
coach Terry Allen said. <u>[1]</u>
"He has yet to get official clearance, but he is making progress," Allen said. "John has experience in this league, which will help."
Also expected to be in full health for the start of next season is redshirt freshman Harrison Hill. The young receiver missed most of last season after suffering a season-ending leg injury in the second game, but said that he expects to recover for the fall.
"I'm hoping to be back for the spring game, but I'm still experiencing pain." Hill
dence."
said. "I should be 100 percent by the fall."
Hill also has high expectations for next year's receiving squad as a whole.
"If everybody is healthy, we should have some awesome receivers," Hill said. "We will have speed, hands, and experience. It should be exciting."

receivers, the name Termaine Fulton immediately comes to mind
"He has a lot of physical ability," Allen said. "By playing as a true freshman, Termaine gained a lot of maturity and confi-
Allen said that he expected nothing but improvement from his second-year receiver.
The sophomore receiver accumulated 10 receptions for 302 yards and a team-high four receiving touchdowns. His big-play ability resulted in touchdown catches of 46, 60 and 77 yards, although he was consistently the Javahaws' only deep threat.
"It gives us a variety of weapons," Fulton said. "We won't be forced to look to one certain player all the time because we will have a lot of different people who can get the job done."
Other Jayhawks looking to contribute next season include two sophomores who have prior pass-catching experience: Tanner Hancock (11 receptions, 166 yards) and Eric Patterson (9 receptions, 93 vards).
One of the players hoping to get a shot at some playing time next season is still in high school.
Byron Gasaway, a 6-foot-4, 180 lb receiver from Grandview, Mo., will provide the Jayhawks with the big target that they lacked last season—he is the only wide receiver taller than 6'1". He has been clocked at 4.29 in the 40-vard dash.
With all of the talent and experience at wide receiver that the Jayhawks will enjoy next year, Allen is looking for great things or at least an improvement.
"We want to turn a liability into an ability." Allen said.

Finish up business first thing this morning. You will start losing interest as the day progresses. That is unusual for you. But, there is something going on that is changing all that. If you do not have enough excuses to travel already, it do because a faraway friend wants to see you.
Gemini: Today is a 6.
If you are going shopping this afternoon, make a list first. Do not forget things you need for your house. You may have been struggling with a small appliance that is broken. Maybe that is why you do not like to do chores.
Cancer: Today is a 6.
Your workload is so heavy and confusing today you might be ready to quit the whole thing. Don't do it.
Get a partner to help. Your next lesson has to do with delegation. Where did you ever get the idea that you had to do everything all by yourself anyway?
Leo: Today is a 7.
You have been in such a good mood lately, you may have forgotten to do a couple important tasks. Now it is imperative you get serious. Don't complain. You are strong, enthusiastic and good looking. And it is a Friday!
Virgo: Today is a 7.
An older person may be stressed today, but you should be in a good mood. Your life life is going well. If you do not have a love life, you are likely to stumble onto one. A person who would be very good for you is not far away.
Libra: Today is a 6.
Scorpio: Today is a 6.
It is time to think about changes you want to make to your home. If you get everything planned, you could make lot of progress during the weekend. Even if you have company coming, you can still tackle a big project. That might even be why they are coming.
Sagittarius: Today is a 6.
You will learn the most today by working with an expert. That is your favorite way of acquiring information. It may interfere with your routine, but that is OK. With a little bit of fancy stepping, you will be able to find the time.
Capricorn: Today is a 7.
Aquarius: Today is a 6.
You have about 80 things to finish, and you only started 15. Not only do you have to hurry, you need a clear idea of where you are going. Someone you do not like is telling you what to do, and he or she is right. Go along nicely without arguing.
You may wake up confused, but by lunchtime your head should clear. It will be easy to see what to do next, and it is going to look like fun. You will be anxious to get started. Unfortunately, the first thing you run into is a problem. With your new attitude, however, it will look quite different.
You have to take care of practical matters. Where is the money coming from, who gets it first and how much will be left? It is important to know how much you have so you can figure out how much you will need. You may not get the raise yet, but you are moving in that direction.
Pisces: Today is a 6.
There are hassles first thing this morning, but conditions get better. By afternoon, you will be in a good mood. Tonight, you will be ready to party. Most of your friends will feel similarly inclined. You might even be able to talk a shy person into going along.

the Big 12 and Big 10 Conferences, will be the final regular-season event for the Jayhawks.
SCORPIO
With rounds of 311.1 and 310, Kansas posted two of its best team rounds of the season at the Dixie Classic. The Jayhawks have shot less than 310 this season in only two rounds.
"The tournament gives us a competition just prior to the Big 12 Championship," coach Jerry Waugh said. The conference championship will be April 23-26 in Norman, Okla.
Waugh said the Jayhawks were beginning to play well and he hoped they would peak at their last tournaments.
On Tuesday, the women finished in a tie for fifth place along with 26th-
"We are winding up our season, and hopefully we will go out with a bang." Waugh said.
Freshman Jamie Tucker and sophomore Susan Tessary tied for 11th in the tournament with two-round scores of 151, while Junior Mandy Munsch tied for 24th with her score of 155.
It will feature club teams from schools including the Kansas, Truan State and Air Force. The Kansas Jayhawk Rugby Football Club is the host of the event, which previously has been held in Houston.
The event hours are from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. tomorrow and 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Sunday.
Three Jayhawks finished in the top 25 in the tournament.

"The team has been working real hard this season and winning this championship has been their goal," coach John Wiley said. "There has been a lot of dedication, hard work and sacrifice that have gone into this season in order to prepare ourselves."
The Kansas Jayhawk Rugby Football Club consists of an under-19 team, a women's collegiate team, a men's collegiate team and a men's club team. The club was founded in 1964 and became one of only five rugby clubs to purchase its own facility when it acquired Westwic Sports Complex in 1996.

Renovation, recruits focus of program
Continued from page 1B
Meares and Joe Carter all developed in their time here into amazing players," Stephenson said.
As games have been won, expectations and tradition have grown. Wichita State now uses its large stadium and fan support to recruit great players to its program.
Lawrence High School graduate and starting Shocker second baseman Kevin Hooper said his decision had been between Wichita State and Kansas.
"Look at this stadium," Hooper said after Wednesday's game. "When I saw the stadium and thought about the tradition, I just couldn't pass it up. I think it's the best college baseball program in the nation."
Fans observe the 1996 Midwest Baseball Regional at Wichita State's Eck Stadium-Tyler Field. The stadium, which holds about 6,000 people, is one of several advantages the Wichita State program holds vs. Kansas. Contributed photo
Hoglund-Maupin Stadium seats about 1,300 people on a set of aluminum bleachers. The scoreboard is ancient. The press box is a single room.
Kansas blues
'Contributions by Kansas baseball alumnus Bill Hogland will finance a renovation effort this summer that should improve conditions. Help is on the way, but college baseball at Kansas is in a different league
at Kansas, but he has failed to turn the team's fortunes around. The program has been in the dolrums since a pair of 40-win seasons in 1993 and 1994, and it has compiled a 17-20 record this season.
Bobby Randall is in his third year
Former head coach Dave Bingham led the Jayhawks to the College World Series in 1993, but he couldn't keep talent levels up year after year.
"Bingham had one group of good players who had two great seasons, but they were under .500 before and after that," Randall said. "It's hard to build a program and it's also hard to keep it going."
Randall has guided the Jayhawks to mediocrity thus far in three seasons, with a 74-75 overall record. He said the players hold the key to building a Kansas tradition similar to that of Wichita State.
"I'm not trying to recreate their program, but I do respect what they've done," Randall said. "To become that kind of a program, we need to find good players, sign good players and develop their talents."
Building for the future
Randall said developing players also would develop tradition and a winning atmosphere at Kansas.
"When we win, people will come," Randall said. "We'll never be 29-3
because we play in a tougher conference than Wichita State, but once we start winning games we won't have enough seats."
Stephenson cited poor weather as a hindrance in building baseball programs in northern states. Rain and cold temperatures kill much of the early season, which also makes it hard to attract a fan base. While teams such as Louisiana State and Texas have dominated college baseball, Wichita State is the only northern team that has remained in the high ranks of the sport during the past 20 years.
"There are no other great programs, year after year, in cold weather climates," Stephenson said. "We compete on an uneven
playing field with southern teams that can play outside all winter long. Bobby does a great job, but the cards are stacked against us."
Randall said renovations to Hoglund-Maupin Stadium would improve recruiting. This, coupled with winning games, will entice players like Hooper to stay in Lawrence.
"I can't fault Hooper for having fun winning. They are 29-3. You think he wants to be here?" Randall said. "We will to work hard to build that kind of winning tradition at Kansas on our own terms."
Softball to battle ISU, NU
The Kansas softball team takes on two conference opponents this weekend in doubleheaders against Iowa State and Nebraska.
The Jayhawks play the Iowa State Cyclones tomorrow in Ames at noon and 2 p.m. The Cyclones are ninth in the Big 12 Conference, posting a 2-7 record against league opponents.
Iowa State has only played 30 games this season. 21 less than the Jayhawks, and a 11-19 record overall.
Last year, the Jayhawks swept the Cyclones 11-0 and 4-0 at home.
The Jayhawks battle the seventhranked Nebraska Cornhuskers Sunday. The Cornhuskers, who are first in the Big 12, have yet to lose in 10 games against conference teams this season.
The Jayhawks are coming off a sweep against the Wichita State on Tuesday, after the second scheduled meeting against Creighton was rained out Wednesday.
Shortstop Michelle Hubler regained the hitting lead last weekend, increasing her batting average to .320. Over the last six games, Hubler hit .389 with three doubles, three RBIs and a .556 slugging percentage.
Pitcher Christy McPhail posted a .088 ERA over the last six games, giving up only two earned runs in three appearances. McPhail is hitting .364 with two doubles, a run and an RBI.
Nebraska, 32-8 overall, enters this weekend on a 10-game winning streak.

Chiefs to fill defensive positions
Coaches may draft new running back
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Like a lot of NFL coaches, Kansas City's Marty Schottenbeimer finds himself at odds with fans.
A vote of season ticket-holders would no doubt set running back as the top priority for this weekend's NFL draft. Since losing to Denver in yet another discouraging playoff for last year, the Chiefs have given first-round bust Greg Hill his walking papers and had a tearful Marcus Allen announce the end of his 16-year career.
That would seem to leave the Chiefs in peril at halfback, where injury-plugged fullback Donnell Bennett and star kick returner Tamarick Vanover will be given a look.
The coach, though, has other ideas.
"I don't in fact feel running back is the position of greatest need on this football team," Schottenheimer said. "I think that's the way the organization feels."
President/general manager Carl Peterson said, "We have some pretty good running backs currently on this roster. If it's the appropriate time, we may take one in this year's draft."
While nobody at Arrowhead Stadium is flatly denying a running back could be taken when the Chiefs pick 27th in the first round

and defensive,

might better suit the long range needs.
The Chiefs would love to find a replacement for former Pro Bowl left tackle John Ait, who retired before the start of last season and was missed. They have their eye on Florida State's 345-pound Tra Thomas, but do not expect him to be available unless they do a lot of wheeling and dealing and move up from 27th.
The Chiefs also have an interest in Kyle Turley of San Diego State, Victor Riley of Auburn and Flozell Adams of Michigan State.
"There are more 6-foot-7, 330-pound tackles in this draft than I can remember," said director of scouting Terry Bradway. "I think there will be guys from the first to the third round who will make it in the league and have a chance to play."
Defensive tackle is also a worry, although the expected signing of 12-year veteran defensive end Leslie O'Neal would lessen that worry. Another possibility was former Raider All Pro tackle Chester McGlockton, who was being courted as draft day approached.
One obvious weakness for the Chiefs last season was the lack of a consistent pass rush up the middle.
"If you look at the depth chart, the first position you would identify is defensive tackle," Schottenheimer said. "However, you're always faced with the situation as to availability. We've got a number of positions that we have an interest in — running back, defensive tackle. offensive lineman
"But the other side of it is that this is a draft that's strong at cornerback. This may be the best group of corners we've seen in a long, long time."
Right cornerback James Hasty is coming off a Pro Bowl year. But 1998 will mark his 11th year in the NFL. And while left cornerback Dale Carter was chosen a Pro Bowl alternate, the seven-year veteran has been experiencing knee problems and was beaten deep last year more often than ever before.
Other needs notwithstanding, the Chiefs love the luxury of playing man-to-man at the corners and would probably jump at the chance to nab a young defensive back gifted enough to become the next Hasty or Carter.
Their lack of success in using first-round picks for running backs might be one reason for their reluctance to address the position this year. Hill, chosen in the first round out of Texas &M in 1994, never worked out. Neither did Harvey Williams, the first-round pick of 1991.
"Running back is not that easy to project," said Peterson. "We know that."
Nevertheless, there are a number of possibilities the Chiefs will be paying close attention to, including Robert Edwards of Georgia, Skip Hickens of UCLA, Fred Taylor of Florida and Robert Holcombe of Illinois. Penn State's Curtis Enis is very unlikely to be available.
"You've got five running backs with a chance to contribute in their first year," Bradway said. "It just depends on the situation."
Insurance helps keep pros away
The Associated Press
AUSTIN, Texas — Texas running back Ricky Williams has insured his future after deciding to turn down millions in the NFL and return for his senior season with the Longhorns.
The nation's leading rusher last year has secured $2.8 million in insurance against the possibility of serious
of serious iniurv.
In 1990, the NCAA, seeking to give college football players a reason to stay in school for their senior seasons, began offering Exceptional Student-Athlete Disability Insurance
(1)
Williams: Opted for injury insurance instead of NFL
policies against injuries that could end their pro prospects.
The program covers athletes projected to be taken in the first three rounds of the NFL or NHL drafts and the first rounds of the NBA or Major League Baseball amateur drafts.
These projections are made after the underwriter consults with pro scouts. With the emergence of the Women's NBA and the American Basketball League, the NCAA is working to make policies available to women basketball players.
Williams said it was not his idea to buy the insurance. He purchased the policy on the suggestion of his mother and the Longhorns' men's athletics compliance coordinator, Leroy Sutherland.
for Williams, an education major who plans to teach grade school someday, the notion of a shrew business decision didn't seem so pressing.
"I'm not afraid of getting hurt," Williams said. "I can just do what I can do. I really don't care if I
have insurance or not. Enough insurance is my college education."
Sutherland, however, wanted to make sure Williams took every precaution necessary to safeguard his future.
"A lot of kids like to think it will happen to the other guy." Sutherland told the Austin American-Statesman, "... until it happens to them."
His advisers also have worked with Sutherland to secure an additional policy worth $1 million. That policy would pay off if Williams is not drafted in the first three rounds of the 1999 draft.
If Williams suffers an injury that results in permanent, total disability, he'll get $1.8 million through the insurance program sponsored by the NCAA.
The premiums for Williams, who already earns a paycheck playing pro baseball in the Philadelphia Phillies farm system, will total $26,000.
The coverage through the NCAA, available for a maximum of 24 months, is extended through American Special Underwriters of Stoneham, Mass.
Athletes certified as eligible by the NCAA can get loans through Mercantile Bank.
The athlete is required to pay the premium when he signs a pro contract, when the disability benefits are paid or when the coverage lapses with neither of the aforementioned outcomes.
It pays, according to Mark Idelson, vice president of ASU, if after six months, it's determined by a physician that the athlete can't play at a professional level for three consecutive years.
Former Miami defensive tackle Rusty Medearis, who suffered a serious knee injury in 1992, and returned briefly in 1994 at the risk of having his leg amputated, is one of the few athletes who have needed to collect. He collected on a $500,000 policy in 1993. He tried briefly to come back in 1994 but had to give it up.

Chargers hope Leaf gets left in first round
SAN DIEGO — Fifteen minutes. That's all it will take for the San Diego Chargers to learn the identity of their franchise quarterback.
The Associate Press
The Indianapolis Colts will open tomorrow's NFL draft by taking Peyton Manning or Ryan Leaf. Choosing second.
the Chargers get whoever's left. They hope it's Leaf, with his strong arm and emotional leadership.
Leaf hopes to go to the Chargers, too.
"It would probably be the ideal situation," said Leaf, a 6-foot-5, 244-pounder who has relatives in the San Diego area and has let it be known for months he wants to wear the Charers' lightning bolts.
General manager Bobby Beathard, who generally loathes first-round picks, is glad he has one this year.
whether the Chargers' new quarterback starts right away or needs more time to learn the offense, they begin a new era. Stan Humphries, the only quarterback to take San Diego to the Super Bowl, retired rather than risk another concussion.
The Chargers paid a king's ransom to Arizona just to move up one spot in the pecking order. Knowing the likes of Leaf and Manning do not come around often, Beathard sent this year's second-round pick and next year's No. 1, plus star punt returner Met Calfcalf and linebacker
Patrick Sapp to the Cardinals.
Only time will tell whether the Chargers are getting another Dan Fouts, who guided the Chargers during the Air Coryell years and landed in the Hall of Fame.
"I can't compare anyone to Dan because he's a Hall of Famer," Beat hard said. "But you hope and expect that either one of these guys can be the kind of quarterback who's recognized as that special, in that elite group. Barring injury and having a good supporting cast, that's how we evaluate these guys."
Beathard said the Chargers would be happy with Leaf or Manning, but it is believed they favor Leaf, a junior who left Washington State after leading the Cougars to their first Rose Bowl in 67 years.
Leaf and Manning are both big and come from successful programs. Leaf is a little bigger and the Chargers like his arm strength.
"There just aren't many guys who come along with any stronger arm than a Ryan Leaf." Beathard said.
When asked which of his attributes means the most to him, Leaf said: "I just think I'm an emotional leader. The players around me feed off it."
Leaf, who grew up in Great Falls,
Mont., says he plays for the love of
the game. But now he and Manning
will get a lot of money. The two are
expected to seek signing bonuses
ranging between $7 million and $8
million.
Rams looking at ends as draft hype begins
Leaf said if the Chargers drafted him, he would not expect to start, but rather earn the job.
The Associated Press
ST. LOUIS — Every chance he got all winter, Dick Vermell touted the virtues of Penn
Victories of Penn State running back Curtis Enis.
The Rams rate Enis as the best player available after the big four: quarterbacks Peyton Manning and Ryan Leaf, defensive back Charles Woodson and defensive end Andre Wadsworth. They figure either the Bears, who choose fifth, or any team that makes a deal with Chicago will take Enis.
But when the sixth pick of the NFL draft rolls toomor
"The people who are interested in Curtis Enis aren't interested in trading with the Rams, they're interested in getting ahead of the Rams for fear he's our guy," said Charlie Arney, director of pro personnel. "They don't know if he's our guy, but they have to figure if he's their guy he might be our guy."
The Rams have a pressing need to replace end Leslie O'Neal, released in the offseason, plus Vermill said there's enough talent at running back he can take one, such as Illinois' Robert Holcombe, in the second round. The team spent several
row, the St. Louis Rams indicate they'll go for a defensive end, either Nebraska's Grant Wistrom or North Carolina's Greg Ellis. Coach Vermelm rates end as the team's No. 1 need, just ahead of running back, and the Rams don't think Enis will be around, anyway.
"I love the guy," Vermeil said. "He is infectious. But I don't think he's going to be there."
hours yesterday comparing videotape of Wistrom, considered the more steady of the two, and Ellis, considered a more explosive talent.
"We've got tape out the gazoo on these defensive ends," Vermeil said. "I'll see Greg Ellis do a beautiful inside move and he's right in the quarterback's face, and he's not doing it against Ma Perkins playing left tackle. He's doing it against a real good football player that also is going to be drafted."
Vermeil has also dropped several other names, including Florida running back Fred Taylor and offensive lineman Kyle Turley of San Diego State.
The Rams have the sixth pick for the fourth straight year. Two days before last year's draft they traded that pick along with their third-, fourth- and seventh-round selections to the New York Jets for the first pick, with which they took offensive tackle Orlando Pace.
Two years ago they went for a running back, with disastrous results. In 1996, the Rams ignored Lawrence Phillips' troubled past, and Phillips finally was waived last November after a short stay checkered with legal woes.
Having been burned, the Rams are not interested in Marshall wideout Randy Moss. Earlier this winter, Vermeil mouthed the words "no way" when asked whether he'd consider Moss, and on Wednesday he reiterated Moss is not on the Rams' draft board.
In 1995, the Rams took defensive end Kevin Carter, who has developed into a solid starter.
St. Louis has eight picks in the seven-round draft, including two selections in the fourth round.

Paint your ceramics

Sunfire allows clients to choose color and style
By Kris M. Elliott Special to the Konson
The building at 1002 New Hampshire St. shows no remnants of what it used to be.
The concrete floors and brick walls of the former Phillips 66 station are whitewashed and painted orange, green, red, blue and yellow. And instead of auto parts cluttering the walls, there is only pottery.
The building now houses Sunfire Ceramics, an art store with a twist. Customers not only purchase pottery there, but they also can paint it any way they choose.
Cheryl Roth, owner of Sunfire Ceramics, said that experience was not necessary to glaze pottery at the shop. She said the shop had several examples, books and stencils that provided easy approaches to painting pottery.
Roth, a former art teacher in Lawrence public schools, opened Sunfire Ceramics in November 1997. She saw a shop with this premise in Phoenix and decided that Lawrence needed something similar.
Her shop is different from other pottery shops of this nature. Roth offers pieces that are functional rather than simply decorative.
The pieces include plates, bowls, vases, picture frames and accessories. Roth said she made all the pieces.
The cost of actually working in the studio depends on the item selected and depends on the time it takes to paint it. Most items cost between $6 and $10.
Once the items are selected, customers decide how they want to paint them. When customers finally start to glaze their pieces, additional charges come in.
"What I have is a $6 an hour charge, and what that includes is the use of over 25 colors of glaze, the final clear coat of glaze that I give it and the firing," Roth said. "So it's all included in that one charge. And the charge only starts when you're actually starting to paint."
She said that most people took about an hour to finish a normal-sized piece.
"The bigger the item is, the longer it can take—or the more detail that you put into your design," Roth said. "Kids are fast. Kids typically take about forty-five minutes or half an hour or something like that. But I would say the average person takes about an hour."
Roth would like to offer more than just the painting of the ceramics in the shop.
"Eventually I'd like to offer classes where people do get to work with the clay, and actually make things with it," Roth said. "I have a feeling, just with the way things are working out, it's going to be closer to summer before those really start going."
She envisions other changes and improvements to the store as well, including a new garden area.
"As far as the space goes it's kind of cool because of all of the windows, and also the fact that it is a historic building," Roth said. "The garage is now the main studio area, but it makes it nice because of the high high ceilings in there. This store has more of a coffee shop kind of atmosphere to work in, too, which makes it kind of pleasant."
Customers are encouraged to bring food and drinks to make their studio experience more enjoyable.
Sunfire Ceramics is open from noon to 9 p.m.
Wednesday and Thursday, from noon to 6 p.m. Friday,
from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday and from 11 a.m.
to 5 p.m. Sunday.
"The bigger the item is, the longer it can take—or the more detail that you put into your design. Kids are fast.I would say the average person takes about an hour."

Summer fun available on local links when the price and weather are right
By Jason Walker
Special to the Kansan
The sun is shining, the birds are singing and, unlike most Kansas afternoons, the wind is barely blowing.
You may not realize it, but this is the perfect golf weather. Forget expensive rounds and not having a set of clubs. This is an opportunity not to be missed.
Lawrence has several golf courses with a wide range of options for varying prices. For example, Alvamar's private course, 1800 Crossgate Dr., costs $16.50 for nine holes Monday through Thursday.
Another inexpensive opportunity can be found at Eudora Riverview Golf, about 5 miles east of Lawrence on 15th Street. At Riverview, greens fees are $7 on weekdays.
"During the week we are not as busy, and we want to do something for students," said George Corn. Orchards club professional.
Alvamar Orchards Executive Golf Course, 3000 W. 15th St., offers reduced weekday rates of $7 for KU students with a valid KUID.
For golfers with more moderate spending limits, two courses in town may be more suitable
"We get a lot of people out here that don't play often, but we love to have people out that just want to have fun," said Johnny Surrette, greenskeeper at Eudora. "We have been trying to redo all the teeboxes and make everything smoother. Also, we are opening nine new holes on Memorial Day weekend."
The Orchards and Eudora courses are good starting points for less experienced golfers because they do not have reputations as tough courses and they do not have many water hazards.
; All three courses rent clubs for about $5, and each requires each golfer to have a set of clubs.

Lawrence actors get a shot at stardom
Community Theatre welcomes all players
By Melinda Weaver Special to the Kansan
The Lawrence Community Theatre, 1501 New Hampshire St., stages seven to eight performances each year, drawing a variety of talented people.
Wanted: all self-proclaimed actors or actresses with a desire to make new friends and take part in the community. Drama major not required.
Shirley Cormack and her husband have been participating in the theater for more than a decade and have found that the experience never gets old.
"I's a great place to be," said Cormack, a secretary in research and public service. "The cast becomes like a little family. I've made many lasting friendships, and I'll never get over that. It's a
great way to get involved with the community."
Mike Shuttic, associate director of Services for Students with Disabilities, also is a theater actor and said that people can benefit from the community involvement.
"It gives students a chance to get involved with their community and meet people outside the University," Shuttic said.
For most performances,
rehearsals occur five or
six nights per week for
about six weeks. The productions last two or three
weekends, depending on
popularity, and range
from musicals to come-
"The best part is that now I get recognized on the street. It's nice to have people come to see you and laugh and enjoy themselves."

tues. Most of the roles call for actors or actresses age 20-30, but many students haven't heard of the opportunity.
"I love the stage, but I didn't realize it was there until I watched a performance and saw the quality of the production," said Jason Hart, Dodge City second-year law student. "The best part is that now I get recognized on the street. It's nice to have people come to see you and laugh and enjoy themselves."
"I've met a lot of different people I wouldn't normally get to meet and made some good friends," Osburn said. "There's a good mix of people, and I've been able to keep in touch with a lot of them."
Amy Osburn, Topeka senior, said she also had enjoyed the friendly atmosphere and chance to make new friends.
English instructors are finding a way to involve English 102 students in community theater through assignments. Graduate instructors like Amy Cummins and Kathleen McGee have assigned their students the play Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? which will be performed through April 25.
They must read the play on their own and attend the production, directed by Paul Lim, associate professor of English. The purpose of the assignment is for students to compare their interpretation of the written play with those of the director to see how they differ.
"In the English department, we teach plays as text, but they were meant to be viewed," McGee said. "We want them to see how the interpretations of the director can influence the play."
The theater offers open auditions for its upcoming productions.
"The May productions are a great chance for students to try their hand at acting," said Mary Doveton, director of the theater. "The rehearsals require less than a week of time, and the script will be in hand, so there won't be as much memorizing."

Clinton Lake offers escape from rat race
By Brad Bolyard
Special to the Kansan
So fellas, got a hot date and looking for somewhere to go without spending a fortune? Ladies, looking for that perfect romantic spot by the lake where you and your man can be alone? Such a place does exist, and it is all only a short drive from campus.
With 7,000 acres of water and situated just five minutes from Lawrence, Clinton Lake is the ideal spot to get away from it all.
With the numerous activities that the lake provides, you would not be hard pressed to find something to do. Activities range from lounging on one of the beaches to going on a 50-mile hike.
The area around the lake is divided into six parks, providing unique perspectives on the lake and a variety of activities.
For example, in Clinton State Park you can go swimming by the beach, camping, hiking by foot or mountain biking on the 15-mile trail. Mountain biking has become a popular outdoor activity among college students, and many enjoy the scenery Clinton Lake provides.
"I love going out to the lake and biking," said Ezra Hallam, Ames, Iowa, freshman. "It provides great views and a good challenge."
Because Clinton is a state park, hunting is not permitted. However, in the areas surrounding many of the individual parks, hunting is permitted according to season.
Fishing is another favorite pastime. The state requires a license to fish. Licenses can be purchased inexpensively at places such as Wal-Mart.
If you are one of a select few to own or to have access to a boat or canoe, then you probably already have visited Clinton Lake. For those who do not have such luxuries, rentals are available at the lake.
"We encourage college students to come out and experience the lake," said Jim Franz, a ranger at Clinton Lake. "I love showing first-timers where some of the good places to go are."
So next time you are broke or maybe just bored on a nice day, take a five-minute drive out Clinton Parkway and visit one of the largest lakes in Kansas. Not only will you enjoy it, your significant other might appreciate it more than just dinner and a movie.

Capable hands relieve stress
Lawrence therapists work out the kinks

Special to the Kansan
Power of the hands might relieve stress or soothe sore muscles, but many are trying massage therapy for the experience.
"It's big in California and New York, but it's new in Kansas," said Brenda Rhoades, owner of Alternative Health Solutions, 414 E. Ninth St.
Rhoades, a graduate from the Kansas Massage Institute in Topeka, said the benefits of massage include bringing new blood to the surface of muscles, flushing out harmful toxins and improving circulation.
Rhoades said that student customers who had received massages during test time had claimed
Other Lawrence businesses also offer massage therapy.
Lawrence Athletic Club, 3201 Mesa Way, rents rooms to different therapists, and some therapists do house calls.
Kelly Freidell, Overland Park sophomore and resident assistant in Ellsworth Hall, hired a Lawrence therapist to talk to her residents. Similar programs have been done on other floors in Ellsworth and Templin Halls.
Linda Faust, office assistant for the department of Health, Sport and Exercise Sciences, arranges for a therapist from Kansas City to come to her home to perform sports massages about once a month.
"A lot of the girls came up to me and told me, 'This is what we want to do on the floor,'" Freidell said. "Our therapist was more focused on energy work and how your body tells you things through your muscles. It opened up a new perspective, and I think they learned about that."
Although massages may be relaxing and enjoyable, the price tag keeps many from getting massages. Most establishments charge an average of $35 per hour, but some offer student discounts. gift certificates and credit cards are also payment options for many customers.
"Now that I have a therapist I know and like, I prefer to stick with him." Faust said.
Faust said that the financial issue bothered her at last, but that her feelings have changed.
Many therapists and establishments offer a variety of massages. Some include Swedish, sports and therapeutic massages. Each uses a different technique and serves different purposes.
"Swedish is what I do the most of, because it's what most people want." Rhoades said. "It's a full body massage using oil to facilitate the rubbing and massaging. The client remains properly draped with a cloth during the massage."
"The results are what I'm looking for, and I don't mind paying that much once a month, or whenever, depending on expenses." Faust said.
"Kansas does not require therapists to have any special training," Rhoades said. "In the schools, you learn about anatomy and physiology, different kinds of illnesses and who you should or should not give a massage to. You also
Each therapist has a unique style. Training and experience may also affect the performance.

However, the amount of training does not always make a therapist better.

School's out; local nightlife isn't
Clubs attract constant crowd during summer
By Noather Herrman Special to the Kansan
Summer in Lawrence may be hot, but it won't be dry. Beer will continue flowing from the taps at many bars, and various forms of live entertainment will be offered.
While some students go home for summer, many remain in Lawrence. Fortunately for this latter group, many clubs and bars in the city remain busy even when the school year is finished.
"We're a bar, so we're open all year," said Al Jacobsen, employee of The Bottleneck, 737 New Hampshire St.
"They've been compared to Wide Spread Panic—a new, big jam session," Jacobsen said.
Jacobsen said one of the bands coming to The Bottleneck this spring was Colobo.
Shows at The Bottle neck are
to customers 18 and older.
There are also places to go for the country fans in Lawrence. Coyote's, 1003 E. 23rd St., is a country night club. Thursday night is ladies night, and ladies 21 and older get in free. For the especially daring, Coyote's also offers a Best Butt contest on Thursdays.
The Granada, 1020 Massachusetts St., also will remain open during the summer. The club offers live shows as well as dancing.
"We try to continue the premiere dance club atmosphere with our Thursday, Friday and Saturday night dance hits," said Jackie Becker, manager of the Granada. The Granada also is an 18 and older establishment.
Coco Loco Mexican Cafe, 943 Massachusetts St., is another option for students during the summer. Students get in free on Friday nights with a KUID.
"It's a fun club, a little dressier than some," said Jen Pag, Reno, Nev., freshman. "There's a lot of dancing and a great mix of people."
"We have great air-conditioning, which really attracts a lot of people. Things really start to pick up around here in July."
For the 21 and older group, the

"Summers are usually pretty good for us," McNeely said. "We have great air-conditioning, which really attracts a lot of people. Things really start to pick up around here in July."
Jazzhaus, 926 1/2 Massachusetts St., offers various live shows during the summer.
"I saw Shaking Trees there," said Brian Gee, Naperville, Ill., junior. "They were'really good. They've got great entertainment and a relaxed atmosphere"
Rick McNeely, owner of the Jazzhaus, said the establishment usually had good business during the summer.
Prices for shows at the Jazzhaus range from $3 to $6.

Brushback pitch incites fight
Lofton charges Johnson again
The Associated Press
CLEVELAND — With one pitch already to the backstop, Randy Johnson stood on the mound and angrily motioned for Kenny Lofton to get back in the batter's box.
Whether a sane person would oblige is a discussion for another day.
Lofton simply shrugged and kept chattering away, and the Big Unit's wavy hair flared from his shoulders as he rocked into his motion again.
The Seattle Mariners may look back on what happened next as the moment their season turned.
Johnson's second buzzzball at Lofton's head set off a second altercation in Seattle's 5-3 victory against the Cleveland Indians on
Wednesday night. Johnson,
Lofton and Cleveland's Sandy Alomar were ejected, and Mariners manager Lou Piniella came close when he went after Lofton.
AL president Gene Budig will review tapes of the incidents today. Whatever he decides, it is clear Johnson's intimidating tactics woke up the snoozing Mariners — and inspired their dreadful bulpen.
"If you're going to talk trash to our team, we're going to retailate." Alex Rodriguez said after Seattle snapped a seven-game losing streak and avoided the worst start in franchise history. "Sometimes you have to stand up to the bully."
The Indians raced to Lofton's defense, and the Mariners rallied around the 6-foot-10 Johnson after consecutive pitches sailed close to the leadoff batter's head in the third inning.
SEATTLE MARINERS
"As soon as it happened, as soon as we found out he was tossed, we all said. 'This is our shining
moment," said Paul Spoljaric, who pitched 2 1-3 scoreless innings for the win

with an 8.84 ERA and had blown leads in two of Johnson's starts — including a seven-run ninth that ruined a two-hit, 15-strikeout performance in Boston.
After Johnson walked off the mound, Seattle's relievers were brilliant.
Johnson and Piniella, who had spent hours in individual meetings with his pitchers before the game, seized this chance to awaken the Mariners.
"Possibly getting the blood pressure up a little bit will bring us together." Piniella said.
The tension evoked memories of how these teams went after each other in 1995, when Cleveland defeated Seattle — and Johnson —
at the deafening Kingdome in Game 6 of the AL championship series to advance to its first World Series since 1954.
"It will be very interesting to see what happens when we come back here," Rodriguez said.
Although Johnson and Lofton are thought to be friendly away from the field, they have a testy history when standing 60 feet, 6 inches apart.
Lofton has angered the Big Unit a couple of times by trying to bunt for hits. Knee music in the next atbat.
Also, Lofton scored from second base on a passed ball on a Johnson pitch in Game 6 of that memorable ALCS. Lofton says it goes back even farther.
"He's been throwing at me since '92," said Lofton, who was in the National League with Atlanta last season. "A lot of guys laugh about it, but it's not funny."
In fact, Lofton is one of the few left-handed hitters brave enough to face Johnson. Naturally, Johnson is going to send him a message from time to time.
U.S. marathoners are running slow
The Associated Press
The rest of the world has been running past U.S. marathoners since 1983, the last time an American won in Boston.
Gone are the late 1970s and early 1980s when runners such as Bill Rodgers and Alberto Salazar could be counted on to win the Boston or New York City marathons.
Indeed, U.S. runners are facing troubled times.
"We have fewer competitive runners at every level." U.S. Olympic marathoner Peltzinger said. "We are simply developing too few marathoners."
Marathon in 2:09:35.
In 1983, 21 runners ran the 26.2-mile distance faster than two hours, 10 minutes — four of them from the United States. Last year, 52 runners worldwide broke 2:10, but only one American did — Jerry Lawson, who finished the Lasalle Banks Chicago
Greg Meyer was the last American to win the Boston Marathon (2:09); Salazar was the last American to win the New York City Marathon, in 1982 (2:09.29).
Experts cite the lack of an organized program for long-distance runners as why American marathoners cannot keep up any more. While some countries such as Japan have state-supported programs, many U.S. runners have to work full time while training.
USA 1998 indoor 3,000-metr champion Dan Browne said it would be several years before he considered running marathons.
"I want to see how fast I can get before seeing how far I can go," he said.
Other explanations include: the increase of endurance events such as the triathlon; poor training techniques by U.S. runners; and fewer
role models such as Rodgers, who has won Boston and New York eight times.
Many coaches, race directors and athletes want a national program that can help U.S. long-distance runners compete with the world's best. What is needed, they said, is a program that attracts athletes while they are teen-agers and supports runners once they leave college.
"The way I always felt, if I was going against a guy who was going to work a 40-hour week, I was going to beat them," he said.
Marathon boosters said the United States does not need to regain the dominant position it had 15 or 20 years ago. The emergence of several top Kenyan runners, who have used high-altitude training to achieve phenomenal success, is enough to curtail dreams of U.S. dominance.
which Browne can attest. The 23-year-old runner is in the World Class Athlete Program run by the U.S. Army. As part of his five-year commitment to the army, Browne is now based in Fort Carson, Colo., training for the 2004 Sydney Olympics.
But having an established program would certainly help, a point to
USA Track & Field CEO Craig Masback agreed some kind of program is necessary.
Camp, who oversees the program,
said, "You don't have to do a full-time
job and train in between."
"I think it's the USATF's responsibility to identify our outstanding future marathoners in high school and provide opportunities as they progress through college." Masback said.
Masback cites the U.S. decathlon program, which received sponsorship from Visa starting in 1989-90. The result: Dave Johnson and Dan O'Brien, both of whom became world-class decathletes.
Struggling fighter climbs the ladder ready to do battle
PHILADELPHIA — A battered Meldrick Taylor struggled off the canvas just seconds before the final bell in his championship fight with Julio Cesar Chavez. Asked twice by the referee if he could continue, he gave no response.
The Associated Press
The lapse cost him more than a fight he had dominated and could have won. It became a defining moment for Taylor and sent his career into a tailspin.
The millions he had earned after winning a gold medal as a featherweight at the 1984 Olympics soon were gone—and so was the glory. He lost other fights he could have won, became a preacher in a religious sect and was charged with insurance fraud.
Now, eight years after that first fight with Chavez, Taylor's making another comeback — but this time it is different. At 31, he just wants to make an honest buck.
"I've got to make a living," said Taylor, who has a bout in Atlantic City, N.J. on May 16.
Taylor, a Philadelphia,
started making a living with his
hands at an early age. He started
boxing when he was eight,
became a millionaire in his
teens, and started wearing fine
clothes and driving a Mercedes
soon after.
Four years after winning his gold medal, Taylor won the IBF junior welterweight title. He had not lost a fight when he arrived for his bout on March 17, 1990, against Cavez, then 68-0.
In a battle of two fighters in their prime, he dominated for 11 rounds. But the Mexican champion pummeled Taylor in the
final round and stunned him with a devastating right hook. Referee Richard Steele, in one of the more controversial decisions in modern boxing, called the fight with just two seconds left.
Taylor went on to win the WBA welterweight belt in 1991, but the Chavez fight had taken its toll. Taylor lost two straight bouts in 1992, then dropped the rematch against his nemesis in 1994. His chance to erase his greatest loss gone, he never was the same in the ring.
"I was reckless," Taylor said. "I was never involved with drugs or nothing, but it was a very high-profile life. Partying every day, going out with women."
Taylor invested in food carts, but workers stole the profits. He opened a hair salon, but that folded.
"His heart's too big and he had the bad fortune to trust the wrong people," said Wendell Keene, a friend Taylor calls his godfather. "Some people have taken him good. And he's made some mistakes. He was like a kid on a merry-go-round. You don't take time to sit back and evaluate things."
When he was champion, Taylor would sometimes hand friends $5.000.
Even with creditors at his door, changing his spending habits has proven difficult: Taylor still rents a white, stretch Lincoln Town Car with a driver to get to the gym.
Losing the second Chavez fight left him poorer and seemed to change him in other ways. He became a little more humble. He found stability in a fringe religion. Boxing was not a road to fame and riches. It became just a job.

Nightwatch bores audience to death
By Jeremy M. Doherty jdoherty@kansan.com Kansan movie critic
Sometimes there are movies so God-awful bad they manage to be entertaining in a guilty-pleasure sort of way. Shougirls certainly comes to mind, as does any handful of Charlie Sheen movies.
Then there are the movies like Nightwatch, an unbearable gorefest starring Ewan McGregor and Nick Nolte, the latest in the current trend of serial-killer movies. This movie is just plain bad.
*Nightwatch* is a weird mix of Freddy Krueger-style homages and perverted arthouse eroticism. Blatantly stealing visual styles from some of the best directors around, the movie descends into a putrid world of deprived sex and human mutilation, and then tries to laugh it off as a
Nightwatch
Kansan Rating: * out of ****
Running time: 1 hour, 40 minutes
Rated R for strong, morbid violence, profanity and sexual situations.
big joke.
the plot is simple, and normally, I don't care about that as long as the writing and the acting can compensate with some kind of emotional element. Nightwatch, however, is cold — a flawless exercise with tremendously assured cinematography and no soul to fill it.
Scottish thespian McGregor dons an over-enunciated American accent to play Martin, a college schmo who takes a job as a nighttime security guard at the local morgue. What, was the Burger King fully-
Nolte figures in as a sullen homicide detective looking into a series of recent murders in which the victims were prostitutes.
staffed?
While Martin is on duty, the dead hookers' bodies begin disappearing from their gurneys and end up in totally unrelated rooms down the hall. Nolte is suspicious. Is this new kid on the job actually the murderer, trying to cover his tracks?
Perhaps the killer is James (Josh Brolin), Martin's drinking buddy from school. After all, he's been pulling practical jokes at the morgue, and he has a fondness for humiliating prostitutes, taunting them with $100 bills and ordering them to say, "I love you."
Maybe it's the slimy, pill-popping corer (Brad Dourif), who spends the movie wagging his finger at Martin. Or is it
Nolte himself?
Does anyone really care? Of course not, and this is why revealing the killer's identity contains not a jolt of suspense or satisfaction. Director Ole Bornedal simply yanks the marionette's strings, never investing any feeling into the proceedings.
The swirling close-up shot of a victim's eye? Hitchcock's *Psycho*. The screeching violins during the climax? *Psycho* again. The moths swirling in the light fixture? David Lynch's *Lost Highway*. The dark, mud-colored sets? David Fincher's Seven.
The big finish involves gouged eyeballs, vials of semen and the stolen trademarks of better filmmakers.
One final thought: Nightwatch had been slated for a release way back in 1996, but instead it's been sitting on the shelf for nearly two years. It's too bad they didn't keep it there.
THE FORMAL PARTY OF THE MARRIAGE OF HENRY & ANNA HOLMES
Virginia Woolf novel revived in Mrs. Dalloway

Remember that awesome car chase from The French Connection? The one where Gene Hackman goes after an elevated train, dodging rush-hour traffic and the occasional baby stroller?
If that's your type of excitement, it's'd be a good idea to skip Mrs. Dalloway. The closest it comes to contemporary vices is a brief, very brief, streaking incident involving a joyous young woman in a darkened hallway.
However, if audiences want to soak in layered performances, witty dialogue and a touching story about a 30-year heartache, this should do the trick.
ences should be craving tea and crumpets after the credits roll.
Though slowly-paced, this well-acted adaptation of Virginia Woolf's 1923 novel is delightful when it's recreating the customs of aristocratic London. If anything, audi-
By that time, they could also be reaching for the Tylenol, too. Mrs. Dalloway suffers from the same problem which ails so many other literary adaptations: It tries too hard to preserve the voice of its source material. As a result, we are exposed to a load of windy interior monologues.
Vanessa Redgrave, perhaps best known to America's youth as the arms dealer in Mission: Impossible, stars as Clarissa Dalloway, the pampered wife of a prominent politician (John Standing).
Clarissa decides to throw a party for all the town's big-wigs, learning in the process that her old suitor Peter (Michael Kitghen) has just popped into town.
Mrs. Dalloway
Kansan Rating: *** out of ****
Running time: 1 hour, 40 minutes
Rated PG-13 for emotional elements and brief nudity.
The movie flashes back 30 years, where the sprightly Clarissa (Natascha McElhone) had been pursued by both her
future husband and Peter (Alan Cox).
Naturally, the French Connection fans are rooting for Peter, which is why they won't like this movie. After marrying Dalloway, Clarissa matures into a wealthy socialite, always wearing a fake smile for the snooty house guests.
With Dalloway, she found stability. With the brooding Peter, a world traveler, she discovered her adventurous side.
British cast are commendable, but it's a shame that director Marleen Gorris and screenwriter Eileen Atkins didn't trust them more. Atkins' affection for continuous voice-overes becomes numbing, saying things which are already obvious from the actors' body language. If that weren't enough, Gorris tends to milk the emotions for every last drop.
With Peter coming to her party, Clarissa becomes overrun with questions. Did she make the right choice? Was she wrong to marry the safe, reliable man? Will the guests be bored to tears at her little party?
Be warned: this is a 100-minute movie that fills every second. Get that catnap in early in the day.

Josh Brolin not mimicking role in second horror flick
By Jeremy M. Doherty jdoherty@kansan.com Kansan movie critic
In his latest movie, Nightwatch, he costars with Ewan McGregor in a bloody, intense thriller about a serial killer.
Actor Josh Brolin insists that he's not repeating himself.
Nightwalk arrives in theaters only a few months after Brolin appeared last fall in Mimic, a similarly violent tale about a merciless killer.
Speaking by phone recently from New York, Brolin said he took the part in Nightwatch because his callous character, James, possessed a vulnerability he found attractive.
"He's more desperate than anything else," Brolin said. "He's a sad character, crying out for help."
Nevertheless, he admits a scene where James humiliates a prostitute in a restaurant was not easy for him to shoot.
"It was very unsetting," he said. "I was a lot more emotionally distraught, and it's probably the hardest thing I've ever done."
Brolin's foray into movies followed a successful stage career and a stint on the short-lived ABC western series The Young Riders.
Still, most probably remember him for his role as Sean Astin's bullying older brother in The Goonies. Kids still stop him on the street, 13 years later, to talk about that movie, he said.
Brolin recalled Steven Spielberg, the producer, was a unifying force on the set of the hit adventure movie.
"He was on the set constantly," he said.
"The guy has a heart of a child."
Up next for Brolin is Best Laid Plans,
which is due out later this year. Once again,
he said he jumped at the opportunity to play
a nuanced character.
"You can expect a really whiny performance," he said. "I play a vicious, winy guy that you wish you could slap around for about three months."

THE STUDENT NEWSPAPER OF THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS
Some KU students are enrolled in crime and delinquency studies, a non-traditional major that does not have Board of Regents' approval. They are seeking...
Undercover degrees
(USPS 650-640)

C helsi Hayden was an intern for the FBI last summer--but she can't discuss it. It's classified information. Hayden. Alw
Hayden, Alexandria,
Va., senior, is one of a growing
number of KU students majoring in
crime and delinquency studies. But
it's not a major you'll find in the KU
catalog.
The program is a special major in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. It's the offspring of a little-known rule that allows students to make up a degree program from courses that they hand-select.
The special major program originally was designed for students who didn't fit traditional majors and who forged their own career paths in areas like digital film, new media studies and political philosophy.
However, the program also is serving as a back door through which the crime and delinquency studies program has operated since it failed to gain the Board of Regents' approval as a regular major 18 years ago.
Crime and delinquency studies has existed with its own committee since 1980, said William Arnold, associate professor of sociology and program coordinator. It serves 40 to 50 students each semester under the special major category, he said.
Guided by an ad hoc faculty committee, the program has found an unofficial niche and gradually expanded over the years.
"There were so many students who expressed an interest in crime and delinquency studies that the faculty decided to put something in
Violations hearings set to begin today

Both coalitions face complaints that they broke campaign rules
By Melissa Ngo

Kansan staff writer
Campaign violations hearings for Student Senate elections begin at 5:30 p.m. today at the Centennial Room in the Kansas Union.
Campus Cause has filed three complaints against Delta Force for alleged poster, budget and unattended campaign materials violations. Delta Force has not filed any complaints against Campus Cause.
Depending on the results of the hearings, the certification of last week's elections may be delayed, said Audrey Nogle, elections commissioner.
"Last year, winners who were found to have violated campaign rules were provisionally certified. This means that they would not be completely certified until after they paid their fines or otherwise fulfilled their punishment." Nogle said.
Major offenses are punishable by a maximum fine of $50 per candidate, disqualification from elections, dismissal from office or any other penalty assigned by the commission.
Poster and unattended campaign materials violations are considered minor offenses, punishable by a maximum fine of $10 per candidate or any other penalty assigned by the Elections Commission. Budget violations, depending on the severity, can be major or minor offences.
Nogle said that at least one election

winner did not attend the workshops. Nogle would not reveal the name or position of the winner.
Nogle also filed a complaint against Campus Cause for having campaign materials visible from the Ekdahl Dining Commons polling site, a major offense.
Both Delta Force and Campus Cause had campaign posters visible when the polling site opened, but Campus Cause still had six posters up one hour later while Delta Force had none, Nogle said.
Brad Finkeldei. Elections Commission chairman, said he expected today's hearings to go more smoothly than last year's.
"The number of complaints is at least a quarter of what we had last year," Finkeldei said. "And the seriousness of the complaints at this point seems much less than last year."
Candidates have until 5 p.m. today to file complaints at the Office of Student Life, 133 Strong Hall. Complaints filed today will be heard at a separate hearing. The reason for having this later hearing is to give sufficient notification to those candidates who have complaints filed against them today, Nogle said. The date for this hearing has not been announced.
Maria Abatjoglu, Delta Force candidate for a College of Liberal Arts and Sciences seat, had her name left off the ballot. Abatjoglu lost the election and had said that she would appeal the results, but she has not filed the appeal vet. Nogle said.
If Abatjoglou appeals and wins, there would most likely be another election for CLAS candidates, Nogle said.
Smokers fly high on marijuana day
By Chris Horton chorton@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
It's time to get high.
For the University's reefsmoking students and marijuana smokers nationwide, today is of particular significance. April 4, or 4-20, is a day of non-stop puffing for dedicated marijuana smokers.
Mark Creamer, Lawrence resident and Honk for Hemp organizer, said that local marijuana smokers participated in daily 4:20 p.m. smoke sessions
"Many people have discovered that 4:20 is a good time to smoke," Creamer said.
Mike, a junior who asked to remain anonymous to avoid any conflict with police, said that 4:20 was the universal tea time. He said that although 4:20 was a popular time to smoke marijuana, he was not sure of the origin of the 4:20 tradition.
"What I have always heard was that 420 was a police code in Washington or Oregon for people smoking pot in public," he said. "But I've also heard that it might have something to do with 421 being the number of chemical compounds in THC, THC, or tetrahydro-
One theory regarding the origin of 4:20 and 4:20 as a popular time and date to get high suggests that California police officers used 420 as the radio call for pot smoking in progress.
cannabinol, is the psychoactive ingredient found in marijuana."
"There will be a lot of people smoking on Monday, but it's 4:20 everyday — you can't just do it one day a year." Eric said. "I'll be riding high on the rhinop all day."
Mike said that regardless of the reasoning behind the time and date, 4-20 was a widespread event.
Eric, a sophomore, said he would be smoking marijuana for most of the day. Smoking up today will be a little more special for him, he said.
"It just's an excuse to smoke pot all day." Mike said.
"I'll probably just fit it in where I can, like I always do," he said. "I'm sure it will be on my mind all day. I'll be putting it in my mind all day."
Dave, a junior, said he would smoke his reefer whenever he got a chance today.
"Rhino" refers to a particu- larly potent strain of marijuana called White Rhino.
Festival, World Expo show it's a small world
By Sara Anderson
sanderson@kansan.com
Kansan staff reporter
Students who attended the International Students Association's Festival of Nations Friday night participated in a worldly experience.
Festival of Nations 1998, held at Woodruff Auditorium in the Kansas Union, showcased cultural and traditional performances. About 300 people attended.
Performances included both traditional and modern dances, musical selections and a comedy skit. Students groups representing Malaysia, Costa Rica, Congo, Argentina, India, the Slavic regions, Italy, Pakistan, Brazil, United States, Greece, Paraguay and Central Africa performed during the festival.
"I had a really good time, and it was better than I thought it was going to be," said Danny Rosen, Lawrence sophomore. "It's a mixture of culture and different experiences that you couldn't see normally in life."
Daphne Johnston, interim director of International Student Services, said that she had a wonderful time at the event and that it was an opportunity for students to see their peers outside a class setting.
"It's a wonderful mix of American students and international students from so many different
countries, and it's a time to realize the many things that international students bring to our campus," she said. "It allows people to see another side of their friends rather than just the academic side."
Johnston said the event was dedicated to Gerald Harris, former director of International Student Services who died of a heart attack last October, and that the event allowed students to show how much they missed Harris.
"I'm really happy they had the thoughtfulness to acknowledge how much he meant to them," she said.
Andrea Alfaro, San Jose, Costa Rica, junior and performer, said that the night was fantastic and that she encouraged students to come next year.
"It was incredibly fun to perform with my friends," she said. "It was great because students get to learn from other countries as well as show their own culture."
ISA also conducted the World Expo on Friday. The event took place from 9:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. on the lawn outside Stauffer-Flint Hall. Information tables displayed brochures, food and cultural and traditional items from 13 different countries and regions, including Turkey, Africa and Costa Rica.
Matt Tanol, Izmir, Turkey, sophomore, said that the information tables allowed countries the freedom to display items that truly

"it's the best way to represent all the different countries because we

Center receives national award for food drive
By Melissa Ngo

Kansan staff writer
The University of Kansas' Center for Community Outreach has won a national Make a Difference Day award for outstanding local project.
The center won the award for a canned food drive held October 25, the seventh annual Make a Difference Day, and collected about 6,200 items for five food banks in Lawrence. More than 400 projects nationwide were given the award, announced in yesterday's USA Weekend.
Jamie Najim, center co-director, said the group did not think that they would win because this was the first year they had participated in Make a Difference Day.
"We would have been successful even if we hadn't won the award because people were fed," Najim said.
The center beat five other Lawrence groups, including Sigma Nu fraternity and East Central Kansas Economic Opportunity Corporation, to receive a certificate and $2,000 to donate to charity.
Najim said that the center did not know yet if it could donate the money to more than one organization.
"If we can, we'll divide the money among the five organizations," Najim said. "If not, we'll donate the money to the Emergency Services Council which deals with all five pantries so either way the money will help those groups."
The food collected on Make a Difference Day was donated to the Ballard Center, Pelathe Community Resource Center, East Central Kansas Economic Opportunity Corporation, Penn House and the Salvation Army, Naiim said.
David Cade, executive director of the Pelathé Community Resource Center, said the food drive helped his organization.
"It raised community awareness about the food shortage," Cade said. "The food donated by CCO and other groups allowed us to make it through what we had anticipated to be a very hard winter."

Domestic dispute turns into attempted murder
A Lawrence woman was arrested Thursday night for attempted second-degree murder. Lawrence police said
The woman was arrested less than 30 minutes after she made the attack. Wheeler said the man was not injured during the attack.
Sgt. George Wheeler said that at 5:17 p.m. a 32-year-old woman fired three shots from a 22 caliber handgun at a 74-year-old man she was living with. The shots were fired at 325 Lincoln St. Wheeler said.
"We recovered one slug in the kitchen area, and found two bullet holes near the front door," he said.
Wheeler said the attack was prompted by a domestic dispute.
"It appears to have been an ongoing difficulty, and she just decided she wasn't having it any more," he said.
Wheeler said that after the shots were fired, the man called 911 and said that he believed he was having a heart attack.
"The medics arrived, and when they assessed the situation, they realized they weren't needed there and called us." Wheeler said.
Body found dangling from tree after suicide
Officers arrived and talked both the suspect and the victim out of the house, Wheeler said.
A Lawrence man committed suicide early Friday morning in the 1900 block of West 31st St. Lawrence police said
Sgt. George Wheeler said the man had hung himself from a tree in his front yard. The body of the man was discovered at 6:42 a.m. by a neighbor, Wheeler said.
"It appears that it happened overnight." Wheeler said.
Wheeler said that although police had not found a note or determined a motive, they were certain the the incident was a suicide.
"We don't have any reason to believe that foul play was involved," Wheeler said.
Baldwin murder suspect jailed in North Dakota
The Douglas County Sheriff's Department, with help from law enforcement agencies in North Dakota, arrested a former Lawrence resident Friday morning in connection with the Robert Baldwin murder case, Sheriff Loren C. Anderson said.
The suspect, who now lives on the Fort Berthold Indian Reservation in North Dakota, was arrested at 2 a.m. at a roadblock west of New Town, N.D., by Federal Bureau of Indian Affairs officers, Anderson said. A warrant for the man's arrest was issued Thursday by the Douglas County District Attorney's Office, Anderson said.
Anderson said that plans to arrest the man had developed during an eight-month investigation.
"It's a very large step," he said. "We've been looking at him since early August."
Baldwin, formerly a Lawrence resident, last was seen on June 21, 1997, leaving The Pool Room, 925 Iowa St. His decomposing body was found July 23 underneath an overpass of the Kansas Turnpike on East 1675 Road, northeast of Lawrence.
A Douglas County coroner's examination determined that Baldwin died from a gunshot to the head.
Anderson said that the suspect was being held in Mountrail County Jail, and that he would remain there until he was taken into custody by Douglas County officers later this week.
KSU student arrested after rafter crawl
A Kansas State University student was arrested early Friday morning after crawling in the rafters of Tremors Night Club, 729 New Hamp shire ST., Lawrence police said.
Sgt. George Wheeler said the student, 25, was arrested at 1:15 a.m. on one count of criminal damage. The student caused $1,050 in damage to ceiling tiles, a bathroom stall and electrical wires during the incident. Wheeler said.
Wheeler said the man was spotted in the rafters and captured by club security.
"He apparently climbed up over the ceiling tile," Wheeler said. "He said he was 'looking for a thrill.'"

Students celebrate century of social work
Four hundred and fifty social welfare students and alumni from around the country gathered at the University of Kansas for Social Work Day on Friday. Students celebrated the 100th anniversary of social work
Lawrence Shulman, dean of social work at the State University of New York, Buffalo, opened the celebration with a keynote address. This was the fourth time Shulman has spoken at the University in 20 years.
"Of the schools that I have been to, this one is at the top of my list," he said. "They take all the crucial elements of social work and put them together."
Alumni and students spent the remainder of the day attending workshops on issues such as spirituality in social work, political advocacy, community leadership, and child welfare.
The day ended with a reception at Adams Alumni Center, Janice Smith, who graduated in '97 and is now the director of a residential adolescent program in Newton, came to see old friends. "It's good to interact with other social workers," she said. "It helps remind me of the basic principles of the profession. That and it's a day off work."

Bomb scare evacuates thousands from zoo
WICHITA — Thousands were evacuated from the Sedgwick County Zoo Saturday after someone noticed a suspicious box near the front entrance.
Preliminary X-rays showed that the box contained metal objects, wires, batteries and a bottle of liquid, prompting authorities to seal off the area for more than 100 yards in order to detonate it safely.
About 13,000 visitors were evacuated to a pavilion on the zoo grounds or through an exit in the jungle exhibit to the parking lot. Visitors, who were drawn to the zoo because of free admission and a health fair, waited for about two hours before they were allowed to leave.
The scare also snarled traffic on Zoo Boulevard.
In the end, after a loud boom rang out and dust cleared, the remains indicated the box contained only a large first-aid kit.
The owner of the kit was not in trouble, Sheriff Mike Hill said, although Hill urged the person to contact his department to talk about the consequences of leaving belongings unattended.
When the threat was over, 12-year-old Randy Craig said he was never scared.
It was just a lot of nooby, he said.
News of the bomb scare eventually spread to most of the crowds as they evacuated.
People remained calm, mostly standing around, making small talk, and glancing at their watches.

University updates systems to keep up with technology
By Aaron Knopf
aknopf@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
People who work in information systems know how to deal with change. With every day there comes some announcement of a more powerful computer chip, a faster type of networking or a better software package.
That's why the staff of Academic Computing Services — fresh off a year of improvements to much of the information technology that KU faculty and students use every day — is implementing new programs for Fall 1998.
Another server will be added for Web page development. This new server will differ in several ways from the Eagle and Falcon Web servers, which were upgraded at the beginning of the semester.
The new server will be used for instructional support, including putting course materials online, said Wes Hubert, assistant director of Academic Computing Services.
Hubert also said that the new
machine would use Microsoft's Internet Information Server as its Web server software instead of the Apache Web server software in use on eagle and falcon.
"It's something that some people have been asking for already." Hubert said.
This is because faculty members who develop Web pages with Front Page, Microsoft's Web page editing software, want to use several of
manager, said that current usage patterns made the change necessary.
"We're seeing less use inside of our Macintosh lab, so I want to make more PC available," Silkey said.
"It's something that some people have been asking for already."
Hubert said that the Macintosh classroom would remain intact. The six Macintoshes that will be removed

Students and faculty also are likely to see more changes in the computer labs that Academic Computing Services manages.
By next fall, six Macintoshes will be replaced with PCs in the Computer Center lab. Sue Silkey, help desk
come from the outer area of the lab, which contains Macintoshes and PCs.
Those Macintoshes that remain will not be neglected. By summer, the Macintoshes in Budig and Computer
Center will have Office 98, Microsoft's newest package of productivity applications, Silkey said.
The other change coming to both labs is the use of the smart card system for fee-based printing services, which Silkey hopes will be in place by the fall. She said the Computer Center would replace its existing card system with the smart card system and would add a pay-to-print service in the Bodiglab.
Both labs will continue to have some printers on which people can print documents for free with their own paper, Silkey said.
Along with maintaining the computers labs, Academic Computing Services also manages the University's dial-in service that allows people to connect to the Internet from home.
Hubert said Academic Computing Services was planning to hire a person for the coming year who could make on site visits to campus locations to solve dial-in or Ethernet connection problems.
During this academic year, Academic Computing Services increased the number of its highest speed dialin lines in Lawrence from 256 to 304, Hubert said.
He said that in February 1998, remote users logged about 110,000 hours of dial-in time compared with 90,000 hours in February 1996 and February 1997.
"What's it going to be next year; another jump of the same size or another year where it stays at similar levels?" Hubert said.
Speech to kick off 'Pride Week'
By Marcelo Vilela

Kansas staff writer
Queers and Allies will say it with pride: Pride Week for gays, lesbians, bisexuals, transgendered people and straight allies starts today.
ers Pride Week is going to feature.
10 kick off the events for the week, Queers and Allies is bringing Scott Nakagawa to campus to speak on "Making Democracy Work." Nakagawa will speak at 7 tonight in the Big 12 Room in the Kansas Union. Queers and Allies spent $2,300 to bring Nakagawa. He is the first of the three speak
"We chose him because he's been so active and involved with the queer community," said Katie Shay,
Lawrence freshman and Queers and Allies president. "I think it's going to be a
Pride Week
cross between a rally speech and an educational one. It will get your blood going."
Nakagawa said that he will deliver a presentation on some of the current trends of gay, lesbian, bisexual and
transgendered rights in the political arena.
Nakagawa has extensive experience in movements for gay liberation and is a former field director of the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force.
"The gay community in the U.S. is connected to the way Americans see themselves," Nakagawa said. "I'll talk about what it means to be a citizen, to be moral, to experience justice."
Nakagawa is a former director of the Coalition for Human Dignity and a founding board member of Artists for a Hate-Free America.
He is the executive director of the McKenzie River Gathering Foundation, a state organization in Oregon that supports social activism and environmental preservation.
Nakagawa is also a community leader against right-wing political movements and campaigns.
He said that students can be a challenging audience for somebody like himself who hadn't had much of a formal education.
"College campuses became highly polarized about rights movements," Nakagawa said. "It's an ideological battleground.

Visitors take plunge into annual Museum Day
Event entices adults, children to explore sea
I am so happy to be a teacher. I love teaching and helping students learn. I'm confident in my abilities and I enjoy making a difference in the lives of others.
By Sarah Hale and Seth Jones
Special to the Kansan
Possibly for the first time, a mermaid helped kick off the 18th Annual Museum Day, which attracted more than 500 people yesterday.
"Dive into KU Museums: Stories of the Sea" was this year's theme in celebration of the international year of the ocean. The Natural History Museum, Spencer Museum of Art, Anthropology Museum and Wilcox Classical Museum had treasure hunts, special exhibits and ocean creatures to honor the sea
"Most of the kids are scared of me," Kneib said. "The ancient mariners used to confuse manatees for mermaids. That's why they needed a mermaid: It's because of the new manatee exhibit," she said.
The history museum also had nine scientific divisions displaying specimens not usually available to visitors. From fossils to penguins, all were available for touching if the children were brave enough.
Kim Bostwick. New York graduate student, displayed a bird that sleeps while flying. The bird shuts down one hemisphere of its brain and operates with the other, she said.
Dressed as a blue mermaid, Kelley Kneib, Kansas City, Kan., junior, graced the steps of the history museum blowing bubbles to the kids who entered.
The anthropology museum showed how North American cultures used the ocean as a tool for survival. Kids could eat seaweed or make canoe paddles just like North Americans did hundreds of years ago.
"When I get home, I'm going to make pretend that it's a real paddle, but it's just a toy," she said. Sheridan's mother, Nancy Daniels, said that the family has visited Museum Day for about nine years.
Children also had the opportunity to become anthropologists by answering 10 questions about items within the exhibit.
Five-year-old Sheridan Daniels made a red and purple paddle with a fish on it.
The Spencer Museum of Art
offered an ocean scavenger hunt for prizes. Children searched for different art pieces and then answered questions.
Beth Huerter, membership director of the Natural History Museum, said she wished Museum Day could be every day.
The Wilcox Classical Museum did not see as many people as the other museums, but they still were happy.
"Since we're so small, we're not something that all the yellow buses stop at," said curator Betsy Banks. "But any little bit of publicity is a plus."
"I wish people could see the science aspect of the museum more often," she said. "This gives people the chance to see what really makes us tick."

Environmental celebrations begin with wetlands walk
By Graham K. Johnson gjohnson@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
Earth Day is not until Wednesday, but some people could not wait to get out and experience nature.
The Baker Wetlands Field Day, which took place yesterday afternoon at 35th Street and Haskell Avenue, gave those curious about the local environment an opportunity to learn about it. The field day was sponsored by Baker University; Earth We Are, a Baker University student association; and the Jayhawk Audubon Society.
Roger Boyd, Baker professor of biology and wetlands manager, said the field day was part of a continuing effort to save the area from the proposed South Lawrence Trafficway.
"What we've discovered is that people will protect things that they've had personal contact with much more than if they have just read about it." Boyd said.
The event included a walk
"This is the only remains of the wetlands. There are probably 600 acres left."
Roger Boyd
Baker University professor of biology
through the wetlands and 19 educational stations. The stations were exhibits and information tables ranging from the ecological importance of the area to the processes of beekeeping. There also were events such as canoe rides.
Ann Jacobs, biologist with the Environmental Protection Agency, conducted one station. She emphasized the environmental benefits of wetlands, which are important because they protect water quality, she said.
Jacobs said plants and soil native to wetlands absorbed water in times of flooding.
Some communities, such as Columbia, Mo., have constructed artificial wetlands to purify water
before it returns to the rivers, she said.
Just down the path from Jacobs, Megan Miller, Lawrence graduate students, joined Damian Powell and Anthony Johnson-Powell at the beekeeping station.
Miller said that although they had visited the wetlands many times, they learned something new yesterday.
"There's hardly any poisonous snakes," said Johnson-Powell, a 7-year-old.
Boyd said that educational value was one of the most important reasons for protecting the Baker wetlands.
The wetlands also are important because they are home to rare species of animals, such as the Northern Grayfish Frog, which was recently on the endangered species list, Boyd said.
Despite their importance, the wetlands are in danger of becoming extinct. Boyd said.
"This is the only remains of the wetlands," Boyd said, "There are probably 600 acres left. Historically, there were 16,000."

Alumni events crown fraternity's 75th year
ckaminski@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity celebrated 75 years at the University of Kansas this weekend.
The fraternity held a barbecue from 6 to 9 p.m. Friday at its house at 1645 Tennessee St. The fraternity also sponsored a pub crawl in Lawrence from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m.
Brian Roberts, Overland Park junior and chapter president, said that about 200 KU Sigma Phi Epsilon alumni and their families participated. Alumni from all decades came, even some who graduated in the 1930s, he said.
"There were always a good 100 people there," he said. "It was interesting to see some of the people and talk to the alums."
Roberts said he was surprised to hear how little the fraternity had changed during the years.
During the barbecue, the house was open to the alumni. Many alumni had not seen the house since they graduated from the University, Roberts said.
Saturday morning, the fraternity hosted a golf tournament at Alvamar Golf and Country Club. About 50 alums and chapter members participated.
The fraternity also sponsored two bus tours. One tour featured historical Lawrence and visited the grave of James Naismith. The other bus toured campus.
Alumni, chapter members and prospective members attended a banquet Saturday night at the Holiday Inn Holidome, 200 McDonald Dr., said Jayme Uden, anniversary committee member and Overland Park freshman.
During the banquet, the award for most outstanding alumnus was presented to Bob Hopkins. During his acceptance speech, Hopkins spoke about a time he and a few other fraternity brothers were arrested for attempting to steal the Kansas State Wildcat.
The banquet also included swing music performed by the Dave Stevens Band and a video, assembled by John Mondi, a Sigma Phi Epsilon alumnus.
The video chronicle the history of the KU chapter and featured interviews with members from different eras. The anniversary events will be added to the video, Uden said.
Proceeds from the sale of the video will pay for production costs and shipping and handling. The money also will help reimburse the chapter for the weekend's events. The total cost of the weekend came to $26,000, Uden said.

writing so that they wouldn't have to be reinventing the wheel every time that a student expressed that interest," said Pam Houston, director of Undergraduate Services for the college.
The University does not really keep any official record of crime and delinquency studies graduates.
In fact, Arnold said, about 20 students like Hayden graduated last year with a diploma that said "special major." In reality, they were crime and delinquency studies majors.
"There's nothing on the database that makes any distinction between special majors," Houston said.
However, Houston said that crime and delinquency studies dominated the special major category.
"I would say that between two-thirds and three-fourths of the special majors are crime and delinquency studies students," Houston said. "Certainly the majority of students who get special majors are crime and delinquency studies students."
Detecting a degree path
Hayden always knew that she wanted to pursue a career related to criminal justice. Growing up, she enjoyed reading Nancy Drew books and playing Clue.
"I've always thought it would be fun to be a detective," she said. "I thought the whole idea of investigating would be neat. Trying to figure out who did it is kind of intriguing."
Hayden gained real-life experience in solving crimes during her internship at FBI headquarters in Washington, D.C. She talked to a hostage rescue team, solved mock crimes and worked with a task force for the attorney general's office.
"We got a unique insider's view of the ERI" Haydon said.
When she got to KU her freshman year, it took Hayden a while to discover the crime and delinquency studies program.
"There are a lot of people in the major, but it's not as public," she said. "You can't just open the course catalog and find out about it."
That's because in 1980 the Board of Regents denied a request by the University to make it a regular major. Arnold said that the proposal was approved by the University, but was stopped at the Council of Chief Academic Officers.
Wichita State University had a similar prox
gram, and it objected to a competitive program being established at the University of Kansas.
"The vice president in Wichita said that it was unwarranted duplication of their program," Arnold said. "They had the mandate from the Regents to be the only one in Kansas."
Hayden took criminal justice courses through the sociology department and learned about the program by word of mouth. She decided to double major in sociology and crime and delinquency studies.
"I just created my own major out of the options they gave me," she said.
Hayden said that she had experienced both advantages and disadvantages of the program. The strong points included being able to choose her own courses and participating in the internship.
But the special major also created inconveniences.
"Every move you want to make, you've got to have somebody approve it," Hayden said. "You also have to make sure you have the most current information."
She said she wished the program would develop into a regular major to provide a variety of faculty and staff resources.
"Although Dr. Arnold is very good, it would be nice to have more than one or two teachers in that department," Hayden said. "It's good because you develop a close relationship with the teachers, but it would be nice to have a wider range."
Arnold said he would try again to get the program passed.
Working for official status
"I've recently been encouraged by the dean of liberal arts to try to make it a regular major," Arnold said.
He has been moving the proposal through the college's various committees this semester and hopes to take it to the Board of Regents next fall.
raul Cromwell, director of the Hugo Wall School of Urban and Public Affairs at Wichita State University since 1997, said he had no objections to the University implementing crime and delinquency studies as an official major.
"The criminal justice system needs all the help it can get, so the more people who are getting degrees and entering the field, the better," Cromwell said.
The criminal justice program is one of five programs offered by the Hugo Wall

The College of Liberal Arts and Sciences has a special program set up for students interested in non-traditional majors. The Students work with faculty members to select their course work.

School of Urban and Public Affairs. It serves 284 undergraduates and 52 graduate students.
Crime and delinquency studies has existed with its own committee since 1980. The program serves 40 to 50 students each semester.
Top Secret
Cromwell said that in the last two years the program had brought in about $1 million in government grants each year and that he expected those numbers to continue.
Meanwhile, the 15 students in special majors other than crime and delinquency studies at the University of Kansas must construct their own list of courses and find three faculty members to approve the proposal. They also must have a clear, cohesive objective.
Houston said that special major proposals were reviewed carefully to ensure that the program met certain requirements.
Arnold and six other faculty members compose the ad hoc committee which has developed a template, allowing students to choose classes from different categories. In addition to sociology, the major requires courses from departments including human development and family life, psychology, communication studies and political science.
"We are looking to make sure that the proposal the student has put together is an integrated program—an integrated set of courses, rather than just a hodgepodge of courses—that there's a theme to the proposal," Houston said.
Crime and delinquency studies is an exception to the special major category, with a focused set of requirements to guide students through the program.
So, what are crime and delinquency studies' chances of passing if the committee does try for the Board of Regents' approval? It's not clear.
Barb Conant, director of communications for the Board of Regents, said that universities should work together to examine where the concentration of interest in a subject lies and to cooperate on course offerings.
"The fact that there is an existing program would of course be considered when they look at the overall picture." Conant said. She said that in the past three years, 26 new pro-

As Arnold, 64, approaches retirement, he said that making crime and delinquency studies a regular program would eliminate complications for his successor.
"It's quite a bit of trouble for whoever coordinates things for it not to be in the catalog," he said.
It might be a difficult process.
"It's one of those things I'm finding very hard to do," Arnold said. "You get turned down once, it's hard to ask over again."

OKC remembers victims of blast
The Associated Press
OKLAHOMA CITY — Michael Hinton grimaced and succumbed to tears Sunday when the names of his slain co-workers were read aloud during the third anniversary of the federal building bombing.
"You have to move on with life, but at the same time, you never forget," said Hinton, a Secret Service agent.
Survivors, relatives of victims and others gathered Sunday at the site of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building, where a truck bomb killed 168 people on April 19, 1995.
Hundreds of people rang small bells after 168 seconds of silence — one second for each of the dead — and placed flowers and mementos on the grass-covered site.
Across the street, a grassy field served as a playground for young Rebecca and Brandon Denny, who were in a second-floor day care center in the federal building when the bomb exploded.
The children still remember being in the "bad building with thunder and fire," Denny said. "But unlike adults, kids can talk about it and go on with their lives."
Their father, Jim Denny, said facial scars were the only physical problems that remained for 5-year-old Rebecca, but 6-year-old Brandon has brain damage and can't hold anything with his right hand.
Actor
"I think time helps with healing if you use the time well," said Paul Heath, a Veterans Administration psychologist who was in the building at the time of the blast.
President Clinton observed the bombing anniversary by saluting the courage and resilience of the people of Oklahoma City.
"It was an attack not just on the people, a city, a state, a nation, but on what we stand for, how we govern ourselves
"We can never know the pain of your loss, the depths of your despair or the heights of your courage. What we can do, what we will do, is to be inspired by you."
Gerald McRaney
and the values we live by." Clinton said in statement from Santiago, Chile, where he was attending the Summit of the
Among those participating in the observance were cast members from the CBS series "Promised Land," who are in Oklahoma City to film scenes for upcoming episodes and to draw attention to efforts to build a permanent memorial.
Actor Gerald McRaney told the relatives that the bombers failed in their goal of damaging the morale of the American people.
"The people of Oklahoma demonstrate to the world what the United States stands for." McRaney said. "People of every color, ethnicity and religion displayed compassion, sacrifice, courage and love not for notoriously or credit, but simply because it needed doing."
"We can never know the terror that you felt," McRaney said. "We can never know the pain of your loss, the depths of your despair or the heights of your courage. What we can do, what we will do, is to be inspired by you."
Officials of the Oklahoma City National Memorial Foundation said $11.8 million has been raised for the estimated cost of $24.1 million for a permanent memorial at the site. Ground-breaking is scheduled for this fall.
China frees pro-democracy leader
Feared brain tumor prompts release of Wang Dan to U.S.
DETROIT — Wang Dan, a leader of the 1989 Tiananmen Square pro-democracy protests in Beijing, arrived in the United States on Sunday after being freed from a Chinese jail.
The Associated Press
Wang's release came two months before a planned visit to China by President Clinton. In the past, China has tried to use such releases to improve the atmosphere before high-level contacts, prompting human rights groups to accuse it of playing hostage politics.
Wang arrived at Detroit Metropolitan Airport on a flight from Beijing shortly before 10 a.m. He was led from the plane onto the tarmac and was taken away with a police escort.
"It's very welcome news," said White House national security rep
Airport spokesman Mike Conway said Wang was to head to New York from Detroit but did not know how long Wang would be in Detroit.
respective Eric Rubin, who is with Clinton in Santiago, Chile. "This is something we've raised repeatedly with the Chinese, and we consider it a very positive step."
Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit issued a statement saying Wang had arrived at the hospital at 10:45 a.m., was admitted and was being evaluated. His condition was not immediately available.
rospital representative Dwight Angell said Wang walked into the hospital under his own power. It was not immediately known whether Wang would be released or would remain overnight.
Wang, 29, is the second leading Chinese dissident released for medical reasons in the past six months. Wei Jingsheng, the most prominent government critic, was sent to the United States in November.
Such releases suit China's recent policies of encouraging dissidents to
leave, in hopes they will lose their political effectiveness in exile.
"It is good news for Wang Dan as an individual, except that once again, it appears to be a release conditional on exile," said Catherine Baber, representative for Amnesty International in Hong Kong.
The official Xinhua News Agency said Wang was released on medical parole but did not give details. Wang has suffered for months with a throat infection and headaches that his family thought might indicate a brain tumor.
His mother, Wang Linyun, said she saw her son briefly before he boarded the airplane in Beijing.
"He's ill. He looked the same as he has for a while," she said in a telephone interview before he arrived in Detroit.
Wang was imprisoned for 3 1/2 years after the government crushed the Tiananmen Square movement. Emerging unrepentant in 1993, he resumed pro-democracy activities, leading to his arrest again in 1995 and an 11-year prison sentence on
subversion charges.
Wang's parents have been asking the government for months to have him examined by specialists and to transfer him from a prison in northeastern China back to his hometown of Beijing.
In April, the Chinese government denied that it made a deal with Washington to release Wang after the Clinton administration refrained from criticizing Beijing's human rights record in a U.N. resolution.
As with other releases, China's state-run press did not announce Wang's departure in the Chinese language press. Few Chinese appeared to be aware he had been freed.
"It's good news, but I wish he'd stay in China and work for the sake of democracy. People like Wang and Wei are unselfish and concerned about the people and the nation," said a man who gave only his surname, Li — like most Chinese, fearing possible government retaliation.
Bug devotees swarm at Purdue event
The Associated Press
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Parents usually discourage their children from putting bugs in their mouths.
But not at Purdue University's annual Bug Bowl, where you cannot compete in the cricket spitting contest without popping a few of the chirpers.
Gayle Seals watched proudly Saturday as her 12-year-old son, Dan, made it into the Junior Men's Cricket Spitting Championship Round by spiting a dead cricket nearly 14 feet.
"He has more guts than I do," she said.
"One of our goals is to get people to better appreciate the roles of insects in nature."
"They're our recyclers. If it wasn't
The purpose of this yearly entomological extravaganza is to foster a world where people embrace insects rather than step on them.
Tom Turpin
Entomology professor
"One of our goals is to get people to better appreciate the roles of insects in nature," said Tom Turpin, a Purdue entomology professor and cofounder of the Bug Bowl.
This year's Bug Bowl was expected to match last year's attendance mark
Nine years ago, he decided to have an out-of-class activity where his students could actually see, touch and enjoy insects. A radio station got wind of the bug day and about 200 people showed up. Since then, it's been an annual event.
for these things, we'd have dead trees all over, dead animals on the sides of the road, all sorts of problems."
Dressed in coattails with ladybug buttons and a top hat covered with colorful insects, Turpin is a man who stands by his bugs.
of 12,000 people. Cricket spitting is a crowd favorite, but there is more.
A step inside a sprawling yellow tent brings the welcoming smell of melting chocolate and cooking oil. A closer look reveals samples of odd delicacies such as caterpillar-laced chocolate chip cookies.
A student-c chef dumps some rice and vegetables into a skillet. To the side is a cup of writhing, half-inch-long mealworms. How does one know when the mealworms are done? "They quit moving," the chef said without cracking a smile.
A sign near the chocolate-covered cricket stand offers reasons for eating bugs, including "tastes like chicken" and "50 million lizards can't be wrong."
People line up to see displays of insect-oriented art, cockroach races and cockroach tractor pulls. There is even an insect petting zoo, which includes a 3-inch long Madagascar Hissing Cockroach and a 4-inch long, unsavory-looking New Guinea Stick Insect.
Then there is the cricket spitting. Turpin said that the crickets are flown in from a California company that supplies insects to bait shops. The live crickets are frozen and then thawed out before the contest, giving contestants the true feel of a cricket in their mouth.
"We don't wash them or brush their teeth or anything," Turpin said. "This is another misconception. Insects themselves are not dirty or filthy in any way."
When Dan Seals stepped up to the designated cricket-spitting circle for the championship round, he picked up a clean, dead cricket, placed it on his tongue, closed his mouth and sent it flying.
He came up a bit short, placing last out of four finalists.
"Watermelon seeds are a lot easier," Dan said. "They're not as big."
His mother patted him on the shoulder.
"We'll have to set up a course in the backyard for you to practice," she said.

Dole has retired but Kansas tour hasn't halted
The Associated Press
HALSTEAD, Kan. — The Bob Dole campaign still is chugging through Kansas.
The former Republican presidential candidate has launched a popular thank-you tour of his home state
A. H. M. RYAN
Dole: making visits across the state.
to show his appreciation to those who supported his four-decade political career.
decade political career.
Since January, the former senator has visited 28 towns in 14 of the Kansas' 105 counties, stopping in coffee shops, schools and just walking around town, thanking all those who have stood by him.
Dole has been showered with luncheons and high school bands playing "Stand Up and Cheer" and teen-age girls gushing about how they loved him
on "Saturday Night Live."
"He's the kind that wears well," said Sam Sturm, a judge who graduated from law school with Dole. "The more you know him, the greater he becomes."
His visits are informal, and sometimes he stops in the middle of a speech to wave to an old classmate or to a campaign volunteer. Dole, who turns 75 in July, seems more casual and approachable than he appeared on the 1996 campaign trail.
At a podium with the American flag waving behind him—after warning young people to stay away from cigarettes, alcohol and drugs —Dole will joke about living next to former White House intern Monica Lewinsky at the Watergate in Washington, D.C.
"I always walk by real fast," he said. "I don't want to be subpoenaed."
Protesters to Nike: Just stop sweatshops
PORTLAND, Ore. — Protesters complaining about unfair labor practices and overpriced shoes descended on Nike stores Saturday in what organizers called an international day of solidarity with the company's workers.
The Associated Press
Here in Nike's home state, about 200 people
Here in Nike's home shoe marched and chanted outside the shoemaker's Niketown store. The protesters brought signs, bullhorns and a 20-foot-tall puppet of Nike Chairman Phil Knight.
Most of the signs read:
"Sweatshops dehumanize.
Let workers organize."
The rally was part of an international protest that organizers said was staged in more than a dozen cities — including San Francisco and Chicago — and in Europe and Australia.
"This is an unprecedented effort."
Last month, Nike announced that third-quarter profits had fallen to $73.1 million from $237.1 million the previous year, and it plans to lay off 1,600 people from its 22,000-member workforce.
The world's largest manufacturer of athletic clothing and shoes repeatedly has been criticized for harsh working conditions in Asian factories run by the company or its contractors.
In Chicago, about 75 protesters pickedet outside Niketown with signs reading; "Jobs for Justice" and "Human rights for Vietnam." They chanted: "Hey, hey, ho, ho, child labor has got to go."
Max White Head of "Justice: Do It Nike"
The company blamed the decline on the slumping Asian economy and a glutted market for athletic shoes, but protesters claim
"I think it's pretty sick that companies like Nike make billions of dollars off people who make 10 cents an hour," said protester Peter Vaughn, 21, of Chicago, who was wearing Nike sneakers. He said he bought them at a thrift store.
they are having an effect.
they are having an effect. "This is an unprecedented effort," said Max White, head of the "Justice: Do It, Nike!" coalition that sponsored the rallies. "It's hard to imagine an organization that has taken this much flack for so long."
Nike representative Lee Weinstein said the company has been unfairly targeted by protesters and was taking steps to improve factory conditions.
He cited a Dartmouth College study funded by Nike that indicated its workers in Vietnam and Indonesia make a livable wage under decent conditions.
"We feel we have made a lot of progress on these issues," Weinstein said. "We're certainly not perfect. But when we find problems and mistakes, we fix them immediately."
But White, who recently returned from Indonesia, said Nike has done little to respond to allegations that the company allowed sweatshop conditions at some of its factories, other than hire people to put the proper spin on it.
"They treat it as just another public-relations problem and don't anything to fix the real problems." White said.
Western nations anticipate trade bloc
The Associated Press
SANTIAGO, Chile — Intent on moving from words to deeds, 34 leaders from the Western Hemisphere are preparing concrete steps to make a reality of the goal they set four years ago to create a hemispheric free trade zone.
"There clearly is very, very strong consensus for proceeding with the Free Trade Area of the Americas," National Security Adviser Sandy Berger said Saturday.
The concluding session of the Summit of the Americas got under way yesterday morning.
At the first such summit in 1994, the participating nations meeting in Miami at President Clinton's invitation endorsed the idea of creating a trading bloc of more than 800 million consumers by 2005. They concluded that global trade blocs were inevitable.
"Globalization is happening, and the only decision we have to make is how we adapt to it so that we enjoy its benefits and share its burdens," Berger said Saturday.
The leaders were to leave Santiago yesterday with a declaration to begin talks as early as June, said Chilean Foreign Minister Jose Miguel Insulza.
The immediate objective was to determine the goals and composition of working commissions that will negotiate various aspects of the trade agreement.
Clinton, who came to Santiago without the fast-track trade authority he needs to finish the job of hemispheric free trade, also pledged to redouble his efforts. The fast-track authority means Congress could approve or reject a trade accord negotiated by the White House, but not amend it.
For the United States, exports to Latin America continue to grow more than twice as fast as its exports
to the rest of the world.
In 1997, U.S. merchandise exports to the hemisphere reached $286 billion, or 42 percent of its global exports. In the five years since 1992, trade within the Western Hemisphere has grown from $735 billion to $592 billion.
Summit partners reached agreements on drugs and human rights and embraced a $6.1 billion three-year international loan package for improving education. Officials said the United States committed $130 million; the bulk of the loan money would come from the World Bank and other international lending agencies.

Farmer's Ball promises music harvest
False history thickens mystery behind contest
100
Who made our picture so big? The Norman Three-Sixty, performers Tuesday night at the Farmer's Ball, are one of the bands vying for a spot open this spring's Day on the Hill concert. Because there are no favorites, the band with the most members got the biggest picture. All art contributed.
story by chris horton • chorton@kansan.com
In a country where voter apathy is on the rise, Farmer's Ball offers a chance for music lovers to blow off their homework, get drunk and scream "Play some Skynyrd!" — then vote for their favorite bands.
The prize for the winner of the three night rockfest is the opening slot at Day on The Hill and four hours of free recording time at Red House Studios in Eudora.
Each night of competition begins at 9:30 on Monday, Tuesday and Friday at the Bottleneck, 737 New Hampshire St. The admission price is $3, and the shows are 18-and-older.
The history of Farmer's Ball is brief but false.
In 1961, the federal government decided that the American public needed some cheering up after the Red Scare of the 1950s, so it established the Committee to Promote the Pleasing of the Masses.
When it was discovered that nobody had attended the first five Farmer's Balls, President Lyndon Johnson decided to disband the CPPM and select the bands himself.
The CPPM promptly established Farmer's Ball, which it secretly used to advance its agenda. It turns out that the CPPM was headed by prohibitionists who booked bands such as Wholesome Jim and the Sober Boys, The O'Douls, On The Wagon and Carrie Nation and the 18th Amendment Possse.
The result was one of the most popular Farmer's Balls ever. The final night featured veterans On the Wagon against the LBJ Beatbox Experience, 2 Player Option, and upstart Pink Floyd.
Control of Farmer's Ball was then turned over to the current organizers of the KJHK music staff and SUA live music coordinator.
For those who may be unfamiliar with Farmer's Ball, it features four bands each night on Monday and Tuesday. Audience members will vote for two bands each night into the final round of competition on Friday, when one band will be crowned king and taste the sweet nectar of victory.
Unfortunately, riots ensued when LBJ dropped his shorts and told the audience to direct their questions to his complaint department after his one-man show was proclaimed victorious.

Sports
Kansas outside linebacker Ron Warner was chosen in the seventh round of the NFL Draft by the New Orleans Saints. Warner was the 239th player selected in the 241-person draft.
Warner earned all-conference honors his senior year. An anterior cruciate ligament injury may have hurt his chance at being taken earlier.

Kansas signs yet another guard after campus visit
By Tommy Gallagher
tgallagher@kansan.com
Kansas sportwriter
Kansas coach Roy Williams said that he wanted to sign another guard to the roster during the late signing period. He has added three since then.
Marlon London, a 6-foot-3 shooting guard from St. Joseph's High School in Chicago, officially signed a letter of intent with the Kansas men's basketball team Friday morning.
10444
London became the fourth perimeter player — joining Jeff Boschee, John Crider and Luke Axtell — to sign
with the Jayhawks this year. The team will feature nine guards next season, including eight who can play shooting guard.
London said yesterday that he knew he would sign with Kansas when he visited campus last week.
"The players loved Coach Williams and the entire staff," London said. "There were no hard feelings between anyone on the team, and the campus was so accepting of the team. It was a real easy decision for me."
He expects to play in the fall but still needs to be NCAA eligible
London, who earned a 3.0 grade point average last semester, scored a 16 on the ACT, one point shy of NCAA standards. He took the test again April 5 and expects to qualify this time.
Test results could be known as early as this week, London said.
The latest Kansas signee failed to attract attention from big-time college basketball programs until a spectacular senior season, averaging 17.4 points, six rebounds and four assists.
Even then, Jayhawk coaches stayed busy recruiting another Chicago shooting guard, Dennis Gates from Whitney Young High School.
The Jayhawks started recruiting London in late January, but that had been nothing more than a general inquiry. Then a former St. Joseph's player faxed Kansas assistant coach Matt Doherty in late February, suggesting that Kansas should take a closer look at London.
Kansas assistant coach Neil Dougherty, who was in Chicago to watch Gates play, also watched London play on that trip. The Jayhawks slowly lost interest in Gates, who later signed with California, and increased recruiting efforts to sign London.
London's coach, Gene Pingatore, said the difference between London and Gates was impossible to tell.
"They're really the same player," Pingatore said. "There's nothing wrong with Dennis because he's a great player, but I guess Kansas liked Marlon better. He possessed something they did not see when they watched Dennis."
London received scholarship offers from Valparaiso and Indiana State during the early signing period, though he chose to wait and see whether his play could lure more attractive offers.
London said he would be eager to leave Chicago this summer to chase his hoop dreams.
"I'll be glad to leave and get away from everything," he said. "I just want to get away and see what it's like elsewhere. I'm glad I have a chance to leave here and pursue my dream."

Tigers leave paw prints on Kansas
By John Blakely Wilson
Kansan sportswriter
Missouri massacred the pine trees beyond Hoglund-Maupin Stadium's left-field fence and the Kansas baseball team with six home runs yesterday, including a game-winning grand slam in the top of
grand slam in the top of the ninth inning by catcher Nick Schwieder.
Baseball
The Jayhawks (18-22)
dropped two-of-three games
to the Tigers (27-11) this
weekend, Kansas lost 14-0
Friday and 16-11 yesterday,
but it won 13-1 Saturday.
Kansas continues to play close games. The team also lost in the ninth inning Wednesday night against Wichita State. Center fielder Clint Wyrick said the team only could fight through the streak.
"Things aren’t falling our way, but I don’t want to point any fingers," Wyrick said. "We just can't give up. Things will start falling our way eventually."
Pitcher Josh Bailey allowed eight runs and the grand slam in one and one-third innings and got the loss. Head coach Bobby Randall said his pitches needed to be sharper.
"Eleven runs should be enough to win any game," Randall said. "When pitchers give up that many homers, we are throwing too many balls out over the plate."
The Jayhawks' offense kept the team in the game. Catcher Josh Dimmick hit two doubles and had three RBIs. Shortstop John Nelson led off the game with a home run for the second time this season.
Kansas lost Friday on a run rule after seven innings. The run rule states that when one team leads by at least 12 points after seven innings, the game is called. Missouri led by 14. Tiger pitcher Justin Stine struck out 12 in a shutout. Nelson was the only Kansas player to have more than one hit.
The Jayhawks turned the tables Saturday, pounding out 13 runs on 13 hits. Nelson drove in three runs, and first baseman Randy Case had three hits.
Rusty Philbrick had his best start of the season. He pitched eight innings, allowed one earned run and got the win.
Postseason hopes are small. The top six conference finishers will play in the Big 12 Conference tournament next month. The Jayhawks would need to win eight of their remaining nine games to finish the Big 12 season 12-12 and to have an outside shot at sixth place. The upcoming schedule includes games against traditional powers Texas and Texas A&M.
Randall has a short bench because of a long list of injuries. Pitcher Casey Barrett continues to nurse an arm injury; outfielder Cliff Bryson may be out for the season with a sore arm; pitcher Chad Schuster is out for the year with a knee injury; and second baseman and team batting-average leader Andy Juday has been diagnosed with mononucleosis. Juday will see a doctor early this week to determine his availability for the remaining games.
Tennis teams lose in Texas KANSAS TENNIS
The Lone Star State crushed the Kansas tennis teams' hopes for ending the regular season with a win.
The 98th-ranked team's team lost to No.17 Texas A&M in College Station, Texas on Saturday. Kansas also lost to No. 7 Texas last Thursday in Austin, Texas.
Saturday's loss was the third in a row for the Jayhawks, their longest losing streak since losing five straight in February.
The Aggies swept the Jayhawks 7-0, and Kansas dropped to 8-13 overall and 4-5 in the Big 12 Conference.
"This is one we're going to have to put behind us," coach Mark Riley said. "We are fortunate that
to redeem ourselves this coming week at the conference tournament."
The closest battle for the Jayhawks came a
No. 5 singles, where Texas A&M's Dumitr
Caradima defeated senior Trent Tucker.
After dropping the first set 6-4, Tucker won the second set 6-2. The third set went to a tiebreaker before Tucker lost 7-6 (7-4).
The 20th-ranked doubles team of senior Enrique Abaroa and junior Luis Uribe continued its impressive play this weekend. Abaroa
and Uribe defeated the Texas team, ranked 11th in the nation, of Nick Crowell and Paul Martin 8-4. They defeated the Texas A&M team, ranked 30th in the nation, of Shuon Madden and Carlos Tort 8-4.
Those hopes were dashed on Saturday by No. 38 Texas A&M in a close match that ended with Kansas losing 5-4. The team lost yesterday to No. 5 Texas 7-2.

HOROSCOPES
Your work could bring you lots of benefits this year, not the least of which is romance.
Today's Birthday (April 20).
Aries; Today is a 6.
It looks like you can't afford to do something you want to do with friends. This is actually a blessing in disguise. It'll force you to work even harder. Why not enroll your friends in the project? The result will be an increase in income for all of you. Might as well get busy.
Taurus: Today is a 7.
You may feel like someone is trying to block your every move. Unfortunately, the direct approach is not going to work. If you just say what's on your mind, you'll probably get fired. Even if this isn't a work situation, the whole truth could get you into trouble.
Gemini: Today is a 5.
Travel plans may have to be curtailed for a while. There are things to finish up first. Perhaps you could have your friend visit you instead. Something you sent for a while back could finally arrive.
Cancer: Today is a 9.
Your friends love to come to you for advice, especially for their emotional problems. It looks like you have a problem or two of your own. If that's the case, ask one of these friends for a return on your investment. Turnabout is fair play.
Leo: Todav is a 6.
You and your partner will have to team up if you're going to win this argument. An older person has more influence than either of you would like to admit. It's going to be more difficult than you thought it would be.
Virgo: Today is a 7.
This is a time of learning, travel, romance excitement, adventure, and maybe even a forever commitment. If you've been writing your novel, now's the time to send it to the publisher.
Scorpio: Today is a 7.
Libra: Today is a 6.
Sagittarius: Todav is a 6.
You'd like to stay home and snuggle all day. Unfortunately, the odds of getting the day off work are slim. Even if you're self-employed, there's something that has to be done, and done by you.
Capricorn: Today is a 7.
Partnerships will play an important role in your life for the next month or so. You may notice a difference when your own partner gets a little more vocal. He or she might try to tell you what to do for a change.
You're doing very well with your career. Technical skills you're acquiring certainly help. You're finding a use for them on a daily basis. If you haven't been acquiring new skills, you'd better hurry.
Aquarius: Today is a 6.
It looks like travel is the focus of your attention. How long has it been since you've gone abroad? More money may be going out than coming in, so don't make this a business trip. Romance is probably involved.
Two people
P
The coming phase will be good for working on household matters. To start off, you and a roommate have something to discuss. It's been in the back of both of your minds for some time.
Pisces: Today is a 9.

LAW ENFORCEMENT DEPARTMENT
You're feeling more confident, and it's easier for you to make decisions. The bad news is that you're under pressure to decide and you don't feel you have quite enough information yet. You may be right. Get a postponement until tomorrow, if at all possible.

The A's are 4-12, their worst start after 16 games since moving to Oakland in 1968.

Prieto gave up six runs and 11 hits in four and two-thirds innings. He has allowed 11 runs in eight and one-third innings in his last two starts.
Prieto seemed frustrated by Kansas City's patient approach at the plate.
"I had nothing," Prieto said.
"Everything I threw, they hit. I was able to throw the sinker, but I can't get them to do anything (with it)."
"They've done everything to motivate him," said Mark Wetmore, Nedii's agent. "Apparently there's a lot more focus on the other guys, and that's the way he likes it."
Kenyans gearing up for Boston Marathon
Then he found out his bib number for the race was No. 6. His Kenyan compatriot, Moses Tanui, had been awarded the No.1 jersey.
BOSTON -- Cosmas Ndeti walked into the cafeteria of the Boston Marathon headquarters and noticed only one small picture of himself on the wall.
Nedti is a three-time winner in Boston and the course recordholder. If he has been overlooked in the pre-race buildup, he does not expect to be a forgotten man at the finish today.
He appears in top condition, similar to 1993 when he made his international breakthrough by winning Boston for the first time.
The women's field was supposed to include the Nos.1,2 and 3 finishers from last year, Ethiopia's Fatuma Roba and South Africans Elana Meyer and Colleen de Reuck, but Meyer was forced to withdraw because of a lower back injury. Also competing are Portugal's Manuela Machado, the 1995 world champion and 1997 world runner-up; Romania's Anuta Catuna, the 1996 NYC Marathon winner, and 1997 U.S. 5,000-meter champion Libbie Hickman, the only elite American in the race.
"For me, Boston means more than the Olympics because it's such a historical event," Tanui said. "Boston is a special race. It's a big race. We have all the top runners here."
"I'm going to win. There's no doubt," he said. "I have faith I can still win. I have to prove I can still win even though I've won three times. This is my favorite marathon course."
After winning again in 1994 and 1995, Netii slipped to third in 1996 and 27th last year, when he was beset with malaria and an ailing left knee.
With last year's winner, Lameck Aguta, missing the marathon while recovering from head injuries he sustained after being assaulted and robbed last July in Kenya, Tanui — winner of the 100th Boston Marathon — was given bib No. 1.
Nedi will try to join Clarence DeMar (seven) and Gerard Cote of Canada and Bill Rodgers (four each) as the only four-time winners in the race's 102-year history.
If Ndeti or a compatriot wins, it would be the eighth consecutive victory for a Kenyan.
There will be about 11,500 starters, and the men's and women's winners will receive $80,000 each.
Florida football recruit drowns in ocean tide
McGriff, 19, an All-American football star at Palm Bay High School who signed with the Gators in February, drowned Friday afternoon after being pulled out to sea by a strong riptide.
INDIALANTIC, Fla.
Searchers found the body of prized Florida football recruit James McGriff near shore Saturday, not far from where he was pulled away by a rip current a day before.
"You had to know, but you wanted to wait because you couldn't believe it happened," said Melbourne Palm Bay athletic director Charlie Schack.
McGriff was cooling off in waist-deep water at Melbourne Beach with his girlfriend when they were pulled away from shore. The girlfriend managed to swim to safety, but he quickly disappeared in the water.
"We share our grief and give our condolences to the McGriff family, especially to James" mother who did such an outstanding job raising a fine young man," Florida coach Steve Spurrier said in a statement.
The search for his body had been called off at nightfall Friday.
A jogger found McGriff's body in the surf on Indialantic Beach at 8:30 a.m. Saturday.
Several swimmers came close to reaching McGriff before he went under for the last time, but grew too tired to continue their rescue attempt.

By Laura Bokenkroger
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas softball team fell to 24-31 after being swept this weekend by Iowa State and Nebraska.
In the first game Saturday, the Jayhawks fell behind in the first inning when Iowa State's designated hitter, Cinnamon Gooding, hit a two-run homer, putting the Cyclones up 2-0.
Iowa State's pitcher Mandy Loushin recorded 11 strikeouts in the game and gave up three hits, including a solo home run by catcher Kristina Johnson in the sixth inning.

The home run marked Johnson's fourth of the season and 13th of her career, placing her in a tie for third with shortstop Michelle Hubler on the career home-run list. Johnson's homer was the Jayhawks' only run.
The Jayhawks lost 2-1. Kansas pitcher Jessi Kowal picked up the loss, dropping her record to 11-15.
Iowa State jumped out 2-0 in the first inning of the second game and added another run in the third, but Kansas battled back.
The Jayhawks strung together four hits in the fourth inning, which set up a two-run single by designated hitter Katie Malone that brought the Jayhawks within one.
With one out in the top of the sixth, first baseman Shannon Stanwix hit her third home run of the season and the eighth of her career. Two Jayhawks struck out, closing the innings. The 3-3 tie was as close as Kansas would come to

Kansas pitcher Christy McPhail took the loss, falling to 13-13 on the season.
"It's nice to finally get a good, solid hit personally, but overall we didn't play very well today," Stanwix said.
The Jayhawks faced No. 7 Nebraska on Sunday. The Cornhuskers remain undefeated against
Big 12 opponents, topping the Jayhawks 5-0 and 8-2.
In the first game, Nebraska pitcher Jenny Voss gave up only one hit in the shutout, improving her record to 27-6.
The Jayhawks scored first in the second game with two runs in the third inning.
Second baseman Lezli Leathers scored on an RBI single by third baseman Sarah McCann. Left fielder Sara Holland singled and as Nebraska shortstop Ali Viola picked up an error that allowed McCann to score, putting the Jayhawks up 2-0.
But the lead was short-lived. The Cornhuskers scored five runs on six hits in the bottom of the fourth inning, giving them a 5-2 lead.
Nebraska first baseman Jamie Fuente and Viola hit back-to-back homers in the fifth inning. Then designated hitter Christie McCoy knocked out a solo home run for a 8-2 lead.
The Jayhawks did not have any hits in the sixth or the seventh innings and lost 8-2.

K-State splashes past 'Hawks
By Kory Burke
Kansan sports writer
The rough waters that the Kansas women's rowing team has faced this season are becoming smoother.
The women won three of seven races against Kansas State during their dual Saturday in Manhattan at the Tuttle Creek Reservoir, although they lost the decisive Varsity Eight race.
Kansas and Kansas State were neck and neck going into the last race when the Varsity Eight boats met to decide the overall champion. Co-captain Jennifer Adams said her boat was able to handle the pressure of the race.
"We handled it pretty well," she said. "We knew we just had to focus on rowing the best race that we could."
In the end, however, Kansas State avenged their loss from last week and won by four seconds.
Adams said the beginning of the race was the team's downfall.
"Our concentration was very good," Adams said. "We thought we raced well and so did our coach. They just had a different strategy than us."
"They beat us because of our start," she said. "During the first 10 strokes of the race, they got three more strokes in than we did."
After a hard fought day of races against their in-state rivals, the Jayhawks are now focusing for this
weekend at the Midwest Association of Rowing Colleges Championships in Madison, Wis.
The Madison regatta attracts the top teams and clubs from around the country.
Because Kansas is a young team, Adams said the level of competition that the women will face in Madison may cause a distraction for them.
"We have such a young team that we have to focus on our own races and not on what the boats around us are doing," she said. "We can't let outside influences affect our performance."
While Madison is an important regatta for both the Kansas lightweight and heavyweight teams, a successful performance by the lightweights could mean bigger and better things for them.
Because the NCAA only has a championship for heavyweight rowers, the lightweight consider the International Rowing Association regatta in New Jersey, held at the end of May, to be their ultimate goal.
Unlike the heavyweights, who always can find another team to compete against, the lightweights aren't as fortunate.
Co-captain Heather Daniels said the importance of the regatta coupled with the amount of competition they would face helped the lightweights to look forward to Madison with enthusiasm.
"The lightweight mentality is everyday we have to prove ourselves because we don't pull as hard as the heavyweights. Everyday we're constantly fighting and working to become better."
"Madison is a big race for us
Co-captain
because we race against numerous other lightweight boats," she said. "Depending on how we do determines whether or not we get to go to the IRA's."
Because Kansas State doesn't have a lightweight program, Kansas had to race against its heavyweight team members on Saturday. However, Daniels said racing against the heavyweights was an advantage.
"The lightweight mentality is every day we have to prove ourselves because we don't pull as hard as the heavyweights," she said. "Every day we're constantly fighting and working to become better."
Daniels said that the past few regattas have prepared the team for Madison.
Sprinters break school records qualify for outdoor nationals
By Angela Johnson Kansan sportswriter
Candy Mason can begin packing her bags for Buffalo, N.Y.
Friday at the Mount Sac Relays in Walnut, Calif., Mason qualified automatically for the NCAA Championships in the heptathlon with 5,566 points. The two-time All-American broke Kansas' school record in the event for the third time.
Mason placed third overall in the heptathlon at Mount Sac. At nationals last year, she earned All-American honors in the event.
The Nevada, Mo., senior has qualified for nationals in three events this season. She already set provisional qualification marks in the javelin and the pole vault on April 4 at the Texas Relays. The 1998 outdoor nationals are June 3-6 in Buffalo, N.Y.
The men's distance runners turned in several personal-best performances at the Mount Sac Relays.
TRACK AND FIELD
Ricardo Amezcua and Jerry Pullins both qualified provisionally for nationals in the 10,000-meter run. Amezcua, Acambaro, Mexico, sophomore, placed second overall with a time of 29.19.12.
Pullins, Middletown, R. I. senior,
finished 12th with a time of 29.40

Andy Tate, Lake Elmo, Minn., sophomore, ran a personal best time in the 3,000-meter steeplechase. Tate finished 15th with a time of 9:06.5.
Kevin McGinn, Emporia sophomore, placed third in the 1,500-meter run with a personal-best time of 3.52.61.
Spinner Tamra Montgomery won the women's 100 meters with a time of 12.09 seconds. The Kansas City, Mo., sophomore also placed fifth in the 200 meters with a time of 25.02.
Russell has already broken one of
Scott Russell threw 174 feet, 2 inches, to place third in the discus. Russell, Windsor, Ontario freshman, also placed fifth in the hammer throw. His throw of 194 feet, 7 inches, is the second-best mark in school history. Bill Penney has the record: 202 feet, 1 inch.
Penney's records. During the indoor season, Russell shattered Penney's 35-lb. weight throw record of 59 feet, 3 1/2 inches, which was set in 1970. Russell's best mark in the weight throw is 67 feet, 61/4 inches.
Kansas track teams also competed at the Arkansas Invitational on Saturday.
The Jayhawk women had a strong showing in the field events in Fayetteville, Ark. Little River freshman Betsy Cordell won the avelin title with a personal-best loss of 139 feet. 4 inches.
April Kockrow, Rushville, Neb., sophomore, placed third in the put with a throw of 46 feet, 11 3/4 inches.
In the men's pole vault, Kansas leaped over the competition, sweeping the top two places, Greg Steele, Ashland, Ohio, freshman, placed first, jumping 14 feet, 11 1/2 inches. Chip Malmstrom, Mahtomedi, Minn., junior, placed second, jumping the same height. Steele cleared the height first.
The team will split and compete in two meets again this weekend—the Penn Relays in Philadelphia, and the Drake Relays in Des Moines, Iowa.

Irwin wins third straight senior PGA title
Golfer defeats competition by seven strokes
The Associated Press
PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla.
- Hale Irwin shot a 2-uner-
par-70 yesterday to become the
first man since World War II to
win three consecutive PGA
Seniors' Championships.
There was little drama as Irwin dominated the 6,722-yard Champion course at the PGA
National Golf Club wire to wire. He had done so since the second round of the 1997 tournament. He was 35-under in his 12 rounds here the past three years.
He began the day with a birdie and added two more at holes 6 and 11 for a 275 total and a seven-stroke victory over Larry Nelson.
Nelson, who had a closing 72,
and Gil Morgan provided the
only true competition of the day
— a footrace for the second-
place, which was worth $60,000
more than third.
No. 8. But bogyes on holes 1, 10, 13 and 15 left him even for the day with a 283, a stroke behind Nelson.

Larry Nelson: ball moved by an upset turtle

Dave Stockton, who had 73s in each of the first three rounds,
finished tied for fifth with Dale
Douglass — 12 strokes behind Irwin — after shooting a 68. It was the low round of the day.
Nelson was even through the first 10 holes and trailed Irwin by seven shots going to No. 11, a 412-yard par-4 that finished over water.
He lost any chance to contend when he boyed the hole while Iwin birdied for a nine-stroke lead.
Irwin lost a stroke with a bogey on No. 15 — a 164-yard par-3 that is the start of the Bear Trap, a treacherous threed hole stretch designed by Nicklaus in 1989. Still, the margin was more than comfortable to
get him the trophy.
Irwin's seven-stroke victory was not his largest margin at the Seniors Championship. Last year, he won by 12.
Irwin averaged 69.1 for the 12 rounds in the past three years. The three victories alone earned him $684,000, including $270,000 Sunday for the largest paycheck of his PGA tour career.
Eddie Williams is the only other player to win three PGA Seniors in a row, in 1942 and 1945-46. No tournament was played in 1943-44 because of World War II.
Brigham Young opposes rule to allow Sunday games
The Associated Press
PROVO. Utah — The president of Brigham Young University sent a letter to the NCAA opposing a possible change to allow postseason events on Sundays.
The so-called BYU rule has existed for 30 years, but the NCAA board of directors will consider an amendment to change it when the board meets tomorrow in Indianapolis.
"If there are championships played on Sundays, our athletes will be prohibited from competing," said Brigham Young vice president R.J. Snow.
Brigham Young president Merrill J. Bateman also is a General Authority of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, which owns the university. General authorities administer the church.
Refraining from athletic competition is one of the policies that the church has set for Sabbath observance at its universities.
The fact that the proposal has advanced to the final stage frightens Brigham Young coaches and administrates.
BYU
said compliance officer Pete Witbeck.
Even if Brigham Young succeeds in striking down the proposed amendment, Athletics Director Rondo Fehlberg said he thought it would pass eventually.
"It seems pretty inevitable because we have yet to see something with significant revenue dollars attached which hasn't passed," he said. "As strapped as athletic departments are, it's hard to imagine them saying, 'OK, we're going to walk away from dollars to support BYU.'"
Brigham Young can appeal the board decision, and a legal challenge is possible. Fehlberg said.
The rule has been in place since the mid-1960s, when Brigham Young lobbied for a change after seeing its baseball team excluded from the NCAA playoffs because games were
scheduled on Sunday.
"Three times we earned the chance to go to regionals and couldn't go because they were held on Sunday," said Glen Tuckett, former Brigham Young athletics director and baseball coach.
"We've had to fight this battle three or four times over the past 20-25 years," he said.
If the proposal passes, Brigham Young golf coach Bruce Brockbank said he expected golf and tennis to be the first casualties.
"It would kill you from day one," Brockbank said. "You couldn't even recruit. Those kids want to go to the dance. It would set us up to be a second-tier program."
Fehlberg said he thought football and basketball would survive.
"Football and basketball already have a very strong lucrative detente with the pros," he said. "College football games are played on Saturday and pro games are on Sunday, and economic self-interest will ensure things remain status quo."
Wide receiver catches lucky sprain
The Associated Press
AMES, Iowa — Starting wide receiver Kevin Wilson watched Iowa State's spring football game from the sidelines with a sprained ankle — a tough break for Wilson but just what Chris Anthony needed.
Anthony, who replaced Wilson in the starting lineup, responded with five catches for 132 yards and a touchdown.
IOWA STATE
CITTONES
Anthony walked onto the Iowa State football team last August.
"It's really a dream," said Anthony, a 6-foot-3, 196-pounder from Pleasant Valley. "God's been with me. Every time I get to go out there, it's incredible. Even in front of 5,000 fans, it's great."
Anthony and quarterback Todd Bandhauer proved to be quite a combination as the Cardinal team, made up of the starters, beat the Gold 30-0.
Bandhauer completed 14 of 20 passes for 221 yards and two touchdowns. He connected with Anthony on a 61-yard touchdown pass.
"Todd will put it on you every time," Anthony said. "He's really improved from last year, especially his poise. He doesn't get angry when he makes mistakes any more. He shakes it off and he's ready to go on to the next play."
Bandhauer returned the compliment.
"I've always known he was going to be a good player," Bandhauer said. "I hope he gets a scholarship so he doesn't go anywhere else."
Anthony made a big enough impression after joining the team last fall to earn a spot on the kicking teams. Despite his performance in the spring scrimmage, Anthony might not be ready to claim a starting spot at wide receiver.
Anthony has been listed behind Wilson and Mike Brantley on the depth chart all spring. Four junior college transfers, who also play the position, will join the team in August and provide additional competition.
"You've got four junior college kids that are 20 years old coming. They have a lot of experience." Anthony said. "From what I've heard, they've got a lot of good speed. It's going to do nothing but
help the team.
"You know, if they're better than me, if they're better than Mike and Kevin, they should be playing," he said. "We need the best people on the field if we're going to turn this thing around and win."
While the first team's passing game was sharp, the running game suffered. Darren Davis, who rushed for 1,005 yards last fall and had 261 in a game, managed only 57 yards in 21 carries.
Coach Dan McCarney felt it was a combination of improved defense and inexperience in the offensive line. Only one starter from last year's line played on Saturday, Ben Beaudet. Three other experienced offensive linemen missed spring practice because of injuries.
"There just wasn't a lot of daylight." McCarney said. "The second team defense was beating some of our guys up front. We just didn't give (Darren) any chances.
McCarney said he was delighted by the defense. He said the fact veterans such as Andre Lee, Antonio Mays, Chin Achebe and Ryan Harklae were playing on the second team showed the defense is starting to develop some depth.

White leaves Green Bay because of bad back
The Associated Press
GREEN BAY, Wis. — Reggie White, the NFL's career sacks leader, is retiring because of a bad back.
"He will be missed for a lot of reasons, but in some respects

White: All-time sack leader has to retire because of bad back.
it's time," Green Bay Parkers coach Mike Holmgren said in making the announcement yesterday.
in a speech to Wisconsin lawmakers, would hold a news conference on Wednesday.
White, who made the Pro Bowl a record 12 times, had 10 1/2 sacks last year, giving him 176 1/2 for his 13-year career. But he was bothered by a bulging disc in his lower back that limited his playing time.
The Packers had wanted him to return for his leadership qualities, promising he would play about half the snaps. But that was not enough to persuade him to change his mind.
White did not immediately return a message from The Associated Press left on his answering machine in Green Bay.
White told Holmgren soon after the Packers' Super Bowl loss to Denver that he doubted he would return to Green Bay for a sixth season.
But Holmgren told him to take his time in making a decision about retirement. The two met earlier this month and again yesterday, Holmgren said.
"The overriding factor was his back," Holmgren said. "He has just not felt very good this off-season."
The Packers drafted two defensive linemen in the NFL draft, but still wanted White to return.
Green Bay lost its other starting defensive end when Gabe Wilkins signed with San Francisco as a free agent in February.
White, who joined the Packers in 1993 after eight seasons with the Philadelphia Eagles, was to enter the second year of a five-year contract extension that called for him to make a base salary of $2.6 million in 1998.
Because he announced his retirement before June 1, the Packers will be liable for $2.4 million — the remainder of his signing bonus — on this year's salary cap.
If he had waited until after June 1, the team would have had to count only $600,000 against the cap with the remaining $1.8 million going against the 1999 cap, which is expected to take another significant jump thanks to the $17.6 billion the television networks are pouring into the league's coffers for broadcast rights.
The NFL Draft Two-day event used to fill holes
NFL
The Associated Press
NEW YORK -- Forget about NFL teams drafting the best available athlete. This year, most went for need and were not ashamed to admit it.
For example:
This weekend's annual lottery of college players was the deepest in recent years.
New England, with six picks in the first three rounds Saturday, took running backs Robert Edwards of Georgia in the first round and Chris Floyd of Michigan in the third round in an attempt to replace Curtis Martin. They

added Harold Shaw of Southern Mississippi, another running back, in the sixth round.
Jacksonville, which lost Natrone Means to free agency, also went for
runners. the
Jaguars took Fred
Taylor of Florida
with the ninth pick
overall, then used a
fourth-round pick
Sunday for Iowa's
Tavian Banks.
Dallas divided its first three picks between its obvious needs, the offensive and defensive lines: Greg Ellis and Michael Myers on defense and Flozell Adams on offense.
JACKSONVILLE
Green Bay added to its defense in an attempt to replace players lost in
free agency. That was advisable, especially with the retirement Sunday of Reggie White, the NFL's career sacks leader.
G
wide receiver needs, bypassing Kevin Dyson and Randy Moss, to take four
The first was Nebraska's Jason Peter, the 14th-overall pick. The Panthers are about to complete a deal with Washington to bring in end Sean Gilbert, with whom they've already agreed to terms.
defensive tackles.
"I think it shows we're serious about beefing up our defensive front," said Carolina coach Dom Capers, who also took Louisiana State's Chuck Wiley, and Penn's Mitch Marrow in the third round.
The draft continued Sunday with group of college stars who, for one reason or another, are not considered sure-shot pros going in the fourth round.
Then he grabbed Viliam Maumau of Colorado in the seventh round.
They include Myers, a prospective first-rounder at one time, who was suspended by the University of Alabama for the season after having contact with an agent.
Among the others: tight end Alonzo Mayes of Oklahoma State (Chicago); running back Michael Pittman of Fresno State (Arizona); wide receiver Az Hakim of San Diego State (St. Louis); linebacker Kiviusuas Mays of North Carolina; and wide receiver-kick returner Tim Dwight of Iowa (Atlanta).
Mays was one of six North Carolina defensive players taken in the first five rounds — including three in the first. But the missing for good continued.
San Francisco used three of its first five picks on offensive lineman to replace a unit that's been injured and aging for three years.
Green Bay, which lost cornerback Doug Evans, safety Eugene Robinson and defensive end Gabe Wilkins to free agency, chose defensive backs Roosevelt Blackmon of Morris Brown in the fourth round and Scott McGarrahan of New Mexico in the sixth. This came after the Packers used its first two picks on defensive lineman Vonnie Holliday and Jonathan Brown.
"We have taken a giant step forward in putting the pieces of the jigsaw puzzle back together again," said general manager Ron Wolf. "I can actually go home and get up tomorrow morning and not read about how much we need defensive line help."
Then there are the New York Giants, whose first-round pick, safety Shaun Williams of UCLA, was at a position where the team is both good and deep. General manager Ernie Accorsi and coach Jim Fassel explained that pick by noting that Williams was by far the best player on the board at the time.
When the second round came up, they looked for a wide receiver — by far the Giants' biggest need.
They were torn between two players Joe Jurevicius of Penn State and Brian Alford of Purdue.
They argued long and loud, then took Jurevicius. When Alford slipped to the third round, the Giants traded up and took him, too.
"We didn't think we could get a receiver of that quality in the fourth round," said Accorsi, who found himself with the best of all possible worlds, a top athlete and two need picks.
Guard Aaron Taylor of Nebraska, the Outland Trophy winner as college football's best interior lineman, lasted until the first pick of the seventh round, 190th overall, when he was chosen by the Colts.
After five quarterbacks were taken Saturday, none went until the sixth round Sunday, when Miami took John Dutton of Nevada. Green Bay took Boston College's Matt Hasselbeck with a compensatory pick in the sixth round, and Chicago took Colorado State's Moses Moreno in the seventh.
Among those not taken was Ron Powlus, who entered Notre Dame touted as a future No. 1 pick but was a big disappointment.
Chiefs bolster offense in round 3
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The Kansas City Chiefs, who had enhanced an already tough defense, surprised most of their fans by not addressing a need at running back in the first round of Saturday's draft.
What they went for was improved blocking for the running backs they already have, taking offensive tackle Victor Riley of Auburn with the 27th pick in the first round.
They had forfeited their second-round pick as compensation to Oakland for signing four-time Pro Bowl defensive tackle Chester McGlockton to a free agent contract on Saturday, a move that could strengthen the defense that led the NFL in points allowed last year.
CHIEFS
"I've got to believe (Riley) will be able to step in and help us." Schottenheimer said. "Whether he starts at the outset remains to be seen. The thing we like about him outside of athletic skills is he's a very, very bright guy."
But when they finally picked again in the third round, the Chiefs did what most fans had been wanting in the wake of Marcus Allen's retirement and picked up running back Rashaan Shehee of Washington.
Left tackle Jeff Criswell was spotty last year in his first season as a full-time starter for the Chiefs.
Riley, 6-foot-5 and 321 pounds, will be counted on to provide immediate help for the offensive line. He could even become a part-time rookie starter at a
Riley was an all-Southeastern Conference pick and led Auburn blockers with 53 knockdowns, leading a unit that averaged more than 290 yards passing.
"He can move his feet," said player personnel director Terry Brad-

spot that Chiefs' coach Marty Schotonheimer has said is the hardest in the league outside of quarterback to learn.
Shehee, 5-10, 207, is fifth on Washington's all-time list with 28 rushing touchdowns. One of his finest games came in his collegiate finale when he rushed for 193 yards and two touchdowns against Michigan State in the Alola Bowl.
"He has all the qualities you look for in a left tackle," said Schottenheimer. "He was the best of all the offensive linemen we had on the board."
"I think I'm very ready," he said by phone. "I have the size and the speed and strength. I just need to work on my conditioning and my mental level of playing at that level of football. I think I have the rest of the package."
Victor Riley first round draft pick
Riley said he was hoping to be picked by Kansas City.
"Coach James, he was like my mentor away from home," Riley said. "I could always go to him and talk to him about anything. He would always tell me the truth, even if I was doing something wrong. I always looked up to him for that."
"I love the Chiefs," he said. "I've heard from other players they're a great organization to
be with because they treat their players like players and not pieces of meat. And it's a great city to be in."
Riley said he was looking forward to being reunited with former Auburn assistant coach Lionel James, who has been hired by the Chiefs as a running back coach.
"Terry and I went to Auburn and spent time with Victor. We were involved in a very lengthy discussion for about 2 1/2 hours." Schottenheimer said. "He had a very good workout for us. This is clearly the best player available to us when we chose, and it was not a difficult choice."

Nets capture playoff spot
Berth is first since 1992
The Associated Press
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — The New Jersey Nets, dispirited and literally down to their last legs, summoned enough strength yesterday to make the playoffs for the first time in four years.
The Nets, despite going into the biggest game of the season without their two best players, claimed the eighth playoff spot in the Eastern Conference with a 114-101 victory against the Detroit Pistons
It was the Nets' fourth chance of the week to clinch a postseason season, and the team finally did
NETS
on its last try with an inspired effort from its three healthy starters and two replacements.
including 14 points in the decisive third quarter. Rookie Keith Van Horn had 25 points, and Kerry Kittles added 22 points.
When the final buzzer sounded, Gill flung the ball 20 rows into the stands, and the players gathered at midcourt, with fists raised.
Kendall Gilh scored 27 points.
New Jersey will open the best-of-5 first round at Chicago on Friday night. The Bulls swept the season series against the Nets 4-0.
New Jersey's victory eliminated the Washington Wizards, which had
won four straight do-or-die games in the season's final week while the Nets were losing to the Raptors, Magic and Hornets.
Chris Gatling, starting at center because of injuries to Jayson Williams, Rony Selkaly and Michael Cage, contributed 18 points and 10 assists, and Sherman Douglas, playing 47 of a possible 48 minutes, had 18 points, 11 assists and five steals.
Grant Hill led Detroit with 21 points, 12 rebounds and seven assists. He also committed 10 turnovers.
In all, the five Nets starters accounted for 110 of New Jersey's 114 points.
But the reserves had a key role, too, as both
Seikaly and Don MacLean played in the second quarter and filled in after several Nets players got into foul trouble. It was the first playing time for either in several weeks.
Gill stole the ball from Hill and went for an uncontested dunk that gave the Nets a 70-69 lead. A dunk by Scot Pollard put Detroit back up by one, but that would be its last lead.
Gill hit consecutive baskets to make it 78-73, and New Jersey ended the quarter with an 8-0 run, including a 3-point shot by Kittles with 26 seconds left, to carry an 86-76 lead into the fourth.
Detroit led for most of the first half and the first four minutes of the third quarter before New Jersey made the decisive surge.
Lakers, Shaq fall short of top
The Associated Press
INGLEWOOD, Calif. — The Los Angeles Lakers did their part to win the Pacific Division on the season's final day, but they did not get the assist they needed from Portland.
Shauilla O'Neal had 33 points and 15 rebounds, and Kobe Bryant scored 12 of his 25 points in the fourth quarter yesterday as the Lakers defeat the Utah Jazz 102-98 for their 22nd win in the final 25 games.
The Lakers and Seattle SuperSonics both finished 61-21, but the Sonics, who defeated Portland 90-82 yesterday, are division champions by virtue of a 3-1 record against Los Angeles.
LAKERS
abdominal muscle, finished second in the NBA in scoring b e h i n d Chicago o' g Michael Jordan, who won his 10th scoring title with a 28.7 average.
O'Neal, who missed 22 games early in the season because of a strained
Jordan's 44- point effort Saturday night against the New York Knicks left
O'Neal needing 59 points to surpass him. The 33 points gave O'Neal a final average of 28.3.
O'Neal: missed NBA scoring title by 26 points.
The loss was only the fifth in 37 games for the Jazz (62-20), who had no tangible incentive after clinching homecourt advantage throughout the playoffs with a 102-99 win at Phoenix two days earlier.
missed his first five shots, led the Jazz with 27 points and nine rebound s. Howard Eisley added 18 points.
Karl Malone, who
The Jazz open the playoffs Thursday night against the Houston Rockets, while the Lakers begin Friday night against the Trail Blazers
Antoine Carr's jumphook with 9:42 remaining put the Jazz on top 79-77 Utah's first lead since the opening quarter.
Bryant outscored the Jazz 7-2 to give the Lakers an 88-85 lead with 5 1/2 minutes remaining, and they stayed on top the rest of the way.
The Lakers got a payback on Greg Foster early in the game when Rick Fox committed a flagrant foul on the Utah center.
Nick Van Exel, who had 20 points and seven assists,
made four foul shots in the final 22 seconds to keep the Lakers safely ahead.
Bryant's 3-point shot with 1:01 to play gave the Lakers a six-point lead.
Fox was among the most incensed members of the Lakers after Foster made a throat-slitting gesture at the Los Angeles bench after scoring on a dunk in the Lakers' 106-91 loss at Utah on March 28.
- O Neal needed just two minutes to get the two rebounds he needed to reach the 5,000 mark for his career.
Foster took the foul without reacting and made both free throws. There were no further incidents.
■ Malone finished as the NBA's third-leading scorer.

KU rugby team claims 3rd place in Collegiate Championship
By Keith Burner Kansan sportswriter
I
The Kansas women's rugby team defeated Truman State University soundly yesterday to claim third place in the Western Collegiate Rugby Championships.
The final score was 34-5.
Halfback Stephanie Bishop said, "Truman State's been beating us since I got here, but today we proved that when we're on top of things and playing together we are just awesome."
The Jayhawks began this weekend's tournament, which took place south of Lawrence at the Westwick Sports Complex, by defeating New Mexico State 12-0 Saturday. The Jayhawks then ran off the field singing the Rock Chalk chant.
"They played their best game of the season," coach John Wiley said. "They had a score to settle with Truman State because they beat us earlier this season. The final score was very indicative of how that went."
In the second game of the double elimination tournament, things didn't go quite so well for the Jayhawks, who lost to Northern Colorado 21-0.
Wiley said that the team played up to its abilities the first game but that the second game didn't go as well.
"They all played with the same heart, but couldn't capitalize on the other team's mistakes," he said.
After defeating the Jayhawks on Saturday, Northern Colorado went on to play in Sunday's championship game against the Air Force, which defeated them 29-5.
Also on Sunday, Louisiana State defeated New Mexico State to claim fifth place, and Wyoming defeated Nebraska to take seventh.

The team will play again Saturday at Westwick where it will face Iowa at noon and Springfield at 1:30 p.m.

Today's college graduates face more of a challenge finding full-time work than previous generations. The job market seems to be saturated with
INSTABILITY
(USPS 650-640)
Story by Melissa Ngo· Illustration by Jeff Shumway
ten months after graduating with a mechanical engineering degree from the University of Kansas, life is not going the way Patrick Elrod had imagined.
He is a liaison engineer for Boeing in Wichita in its Struts and Nacelle Responsibility Center. This is his second position at Boeing. Five months after Elrod started working at the Space and Defense division, his project was terminated. Not everyone was transferred to a different project. Some people were simply out of a job.
"One day everything was fine. The next day there were rumors that the project was running out of money, and three days later boxes were coming in to move your stuff out," Elrod said. "It is a crazy feeling."
It is a fact of life for KU seniors: 1998 graduates face a bleaker job market than their parents did. Job instability, contract jobs, part-time jobs and less benefits all add up to a future where diplomas are not the gateway to life in the suburbs that they once were.
Job instability, a threat not even on the radar screens of new graduates 30 years ago, is common in all areas of business now, said Darryll Fortune, strategic communications manager for Sprint, headquartered in Kansas City.
Employees consistently rank their perception of job security low in Sprint attitude surveys, Fortune said, and added, "In some industries it's difficult to keep people satisfied because employees wonder if they're going to have a job from day to day."
Job instability is only one of the many differences between the job market new graduates face and the one their parents faced 20 or 30 years ago.
True, there is a greater demand for specialized degrees such as computer technology and engineering in today's market.
But, although companies want people with specialized degrees, companies also want employees with the ability to work outside their specialization.
"Employees also need excellent communications skills." Fortune said.
Employers also want to cut costs and one way to do that is to hire contract workers. Fortune said companies could save money on health benefits, social security benefits, office space and many other things with contract workers instead of full-time employees. Sprint has increasingly hired contract workers during the last decade
It is all part of a growing trend throughout the business world.
Bill Staples, professor of sociology, teaches SOC 525: Sociology of Work. He said contract, temporary and part-time jobs make up many of the jobs created in the last five to eight years.
"When AT&T is laying off 40,000 people, you can see that all of corporate America is restructuring and cutting back on the work force," Staples said. "This means there are fewer career opportunities."
A 1994 study by the U.S. Department of Education found that 87 percent of students one or two years out of college were employed. Fourteen percent of those employed had part-time jobs.
Surveys in the 1970s did not discuss how many people had part-time jobs.
"Part-time employment was not nearly as prevalent in the 1970s," said Aurora D'Amico, U.S. Department of Education statistician. "It seems to be a phenomenon which emerged more recently."
This phenomenon affects many recent graduates.
"I see students I've taught who have graduated and they're working at the mall," Staples said.

Two lose Senate seats for campaign violations
By Melissa Ngo
mngo@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
The campaign violations hearings board disqualified two newly elected Student Senators from holding their seats for not attending mandatory candidate workshops.
LaShawwal Harris, newly elected Delta Force nontraditional senator, was disqualified. However, she said the disqualification did not matter because she had resigned from the coalition before the elections but her name still was not taken off the ballot.
Sasha Ringler, Campus Cause candidate for a Nunemaker seat, also did not attend the candidate workshops. Because she did not win the election, she could not be disqualified from office and instead was fined $50, said Brad Finkeldel, Elections Commission chairman and hearings board member.
Ryan Price, newly elected Campus Cause Nunemaker senator, also was disqualified, but he could not be reached for comment.
Maria Abatijouglu, the only Delta Force candidate for a Liberal Arts and Sciences seat not to be elected, did not have her name on the ballot for six hours of the first day of elections. Before being printed, the ballot was reviewed by both Delta Force and the Elections Commission.
The board also decided not to order a new election for College of Liberal Arts and Sciences candidates.
Before the decision, Abatlogou had said that she did not want to penalize this year's CLAS winners by requesting a new election.
"I ask that I receive an eleventh senatorial seat in the CLAS," she said. "If this is not possible, I
seek an appointed position on Student Senate."
Finkeldei said the board decided that it did not have the authority to appoint Abatijoglu to a Senate position or to create another CLAS seat.
"We have decided to recommend to Student Senate that they strongly consider Maria when they next have a seat open," Finkeldel said.
"I just hope that Scott Kaiser and Kevin Yoder take the recommendation seriously and consider me for something," she said. "I think it is unfortunate that I am missing out on this opportunity because of human error."
After hearing the ruling, Abatoglou said she hoped she could serve on Senate.
The hearings board also decided last night to fine Campus Cause $50 for placing campaign materials on doors at an apartment complex without the apartment manager's permission.
Yoder and Kaiser are the newly elected student body president and vice president.
Yoder said the coalition was guilty because of miscommunication about which complexes had allowed the coalition to distribute campaign material.
Campus Cause also was fined $30 for displaying eight posters visible from the Ekdahl Dining Commons rolling site.
Audrey Nogle, elections commissioner, had filed the complaint after asking both coalitions to take down posters placed in Lewis Hall. She gave the coalitions a one-hour deadline that Delta Force met but that Campus Cause did not meet.

Officials may revoke bars' licenses
Action on hold until investigation complete
By Ronnie Wachter
rwachter@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Some University of Kansas students say they are concerned that neither of the bars involved in the accident that fatally injured Lisa Rosel are being investigated by authorities.
Stephanie Smith, Wichita junior, said she was concerned about the amount of drunk driving in Lawrence.
"People are still doing it, even after this girl got killed," she said. "It's not just the bars. They could get their alcohol from stores or other places."
Rosel, Overland Park freshman, was fatally injured March 31 when she was struck by a 1997 Mitsuishi Montero that was driven by a legally intoxicated KU student.
The driver, Matthew Vestal, Englewood, Colo., freshman, had been drinking at The Crossing, 618 12th St., and Rosel had been drinking at Bull-Winkles, 1344 Tennessee St., Lawrence police said. Both students were underage.
Underage drinking and fatal accidents
18.8%
of drivers age 16-20 involved in fatal accidents were drunk.
34.5%
of pedestrians age 16-20 killed in accidents were drunk.
"Obviously, there's a problem," said Mark Auerbach, Warren, N.J., senior. "The bars and the police should at least pretend to be enforcing the laws."
Mike Wildgen, city manager, said the city commission was investigating the roles The Crossing and BullWinkles played in the incident. He said the cereal malt beverage licenses that were issued by the city to the two bars could be suspended or revoked by the

Scott Teeselink, KBI media agent, said he did not know when the results of the blood tests be conducted on Vestal and Rosel would be released.
city commission.
However, Wildgen said the commission did not know what, if any, action it would take.
"The city attorney is reviewing this, I assure you," Wilden said. "The city can't take any action until the city attorney completes his investigation."
City Attorney Gerald Cooley's office is closed this week, and he could not be reached for comment.
"I can tell you that as soon as the investigation is over." she said. "we'll

Although neither the police nor the city commission can take any action yet, Lawrence Mayor Marty Kennedy said he had begun taking steps to lower the level of drunk driving.
look at the whole picture."
"At this time, we have already begun putting together a commission to see what can be done about these problems," he said. "We've extended invitations to the chancellor and the president of Haskell to be involved in this."
Kennedy said educating Lawrence residents about the dangers of drunk driving and the penalties of underage drinking would be the commission's focus.
Auerbach said both problems needed to be addressed.
"Everybody drives to the Bull, and they park on Tennessee Street," he said. "So you have drunk people crossing the street to get to their cars, with drunk drivers on the road leaving. Whether you're drunk or sober, it's not very safe."
Kelly Huffman, Student Senate Executive Committee chairman and member of the Student Senate Transportation Board, said the board was considering a bill that could help reduce drunk driving in Lawrence.
The bill, which Huffman said was created the week before Spring Break, would create a new bus route that would drive along Massachusetts Street at night, then drop passengers off close to their homes. The bill will be considered at 2:30 today during the transportation board's meeting.

Man caught with pants down at local restaurant
A Lawrence man was arrested Friday night at Old Chicago, 2329 Iowa St., after exposing himself to restaurant patrons, Lawrence police said.
Officer Tom Moore said the man, 20,
was arrested at 10:10 p.m. on one
count of lewd and incessible behavior.
Several customers waiting outside Old Chicago left when they saw a man with his pants around around his knees, Moore said.
Moore said that the man had been playing pool in the bar and that alcohol may have been involved in the incident.
"The reporting officer observed what
he thought was the smell of alcoholic beverages," Moore said.
Michael Regnier, a manager at Old Chicago, said the police report was incorrect. He said the man did not expose himself to a number of restaurant patrons. Rather, he briefly exposed his buttocks to one individual.
"It was just up-and-down," he said.
"It was a moon."

Student claims problems with sneaky nasal ninjas
A Jayhawker Towers resident told police officers at 4:54 p.m. Saturday that unknown nocturnal tormentors had been sneaking into her apartment at night and puncturing the insides of her nasal passages, the KU Public Safety Office said.
After speaking with the resident, officers told her that the scenario was not possible and advised that she seek help from mental health professionals, according to the incident report.
The resident did not want to seek counseling, the public safety office said.
Police cannot force people to have their mental health evaluated unless they are a danger to themselves or others, said Sgt. Chris Keary. In this case, police determined that the resident was not at such a risk, he said.
The resident provided police photographs of her nasal passages that showed three small holes in one passage and a small crescent-shaped laceration in the other. She told police that "ninja-type" persons could enter her room despite the safety precautions she had taken.
She had locked her bedroom and apartment doors, cinching and padlock
ing the chains and then taping the pad-locks. She also had barred shut the windows with two-by-two pieces of lumber.

Man jumps out of bushes and bares his naked side
A man exposed himself to two University of Kansas students at 3:05 a.m. Saturday, the KU Public Safety Office said.
The students, both Gertrude Sellards Pearson-Corbin Hall residents, were walking home at 11th and Tennessee streets when they heard a rustling in the bushes, said Sgt. Chris Keary.
Keary said the students recognized the exposed man as the same individual they had walked by earlier in the evening.
The suspect is a 6-foot, 170-pound caucasian male with brown hair. The man, between 20 and 23 years old, was wearing a navy baseball cap and a navy coat with red and white stripes on the sleeves.
Anyone with information regarding this or any crime can call Crime Stoppers at 864-8888. The line is open 24 hours, and anonymity is protected.

University of Kansas students want their MTV. And yesterday, MTV wanted them.
Brendon Blincoe, casting director of a new MTV show 7 Days Across America, was in front of the Kansas Union looking for cast members for the show. The show, which
will begin the last two weeks of May, takes eight college students from around the nation and dares them to take on challenges. Skydiving is the first and bungee jumping is another, but not all of the activities are physical.
MTV searches for students in Lawrence for new show
The show runs until the end of July, when MTV expects to have only two participants left. The winner of the show gets to be a VJ for a week at the MTV Summer Share Beach House in New Jersey at the end of the summer.
This was Blinoe's second stop, already having visited with about 100 students from Kansas State University. He also has plans to visit other schools such as Louisiana State University, Northwestern University and the University of New Orleans.
Blincoe said he chose Kansas because MTV wanted someone from the Midwest. He originally wanted to go to Boulder, Colo., but MTV only gave him the choice of Kansas or Okla homa. He said he chose Kansas because he has a friend that lives here.
Blincoe explained that there was not any one type of student for which he was looking.
"I'm looking for a good mix of people. From the big bald guy with a tattoo on his head to whatever. Just someone who, for some reason, stands out." he said.
Students were interviewed in groups of 10 for the first round, and students who made an impression on Blincoe were asked to come back at a later time so he could get them in front of a camera.
Interviews continued all day yesterday, and Blincoe said that if a KU student was chosen, MTV would notify him or her later.

GTAC spurred into action by new house bill
By Susie Gura
sgura@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Kansas legislators will be receiving stacks of mail from graduate teaching assistants concerning a house bill that contains language about GTAs.
The bill concerns the recognition of GTAs as public employees and provisions on health care for GTAs and graduate research assistants.
GTAs got together last night to stamp envelopes and send letters to legislators. Boxes had been placed at Wescoe Hall, Lindley Hall and Fraser Hall for GTAs to put their letters in to be sent to the legislature.
The bill is in a conference committee that consists of three members of the Senate and three members of the House. The section which concerns GTAs was moved from one bill, which did not pass, to a telecommunications bill, said Robert Vodicka, GTA in American Studies.
"The original telecommunications bill passed the house but said nothing about GTAs." Vodicka said.
The telecommunications bill, with the new section about GTAs, has to be voted on in the conference committee. It will either pass with the language that includes GTAS or the whole bill will be voted down
"The bill is very popular, and it puts everyone in a very difficult position." Vodika said.
The Graduate Teaching Assistant Coalition wants to inform legislators about the paragraphs added to the bill.
"Many are not up to date on the language and won't have a chance to learn about it." Sheumaker said. "This is our chance to tell our story."
GTAC letters are being sent to every member of the House and Senate.
"We are writing to people who are inadvertently approving the changes," said Stephen Mathis, GTA in Western Civilization. "This is out there and people should know."
The committee approved changes without talking about the content of the bill.
Sheumaker said paragraphes added to this bill could have a negative effect on all universities.
"We are writing to the committee members to change the language," he said.
"We are asking that the legislatures request that the language be taken out because it has nothing to do with technology," Sheumaker said.
"We don't oppose the bill, but the language of the bill." Vodicka said.
If still interested in writing a letter, contact Mark Horowitz.

More than 20 Lawrence residents and University of Kansas students paid their respects to bicyclist Jon Hermes at a 30-minute ceremony yesterday at South Park.
Family members, friends and co-workers of Hermes gathered at 2:30 p.m. to dedicate two young redbud trees to Hermes. Hermes, a Lawrence resident,

died after being hit by a dump truck in September while riding his bike at the corner of Ninth and Mississippi streets.
Hermes' father, Norbert Hermes, called the planting of the trees a beautiful tribute to his son, who was 30 years old at the time of his death.
“It's something that those who knew him from around here can use to remind themselves of him,” Norbert Hermes said as his wife, Marlene, looked on. “He loved the outdoors. It's a fitting tribute to him.”
Tears welled in the eyes of friends and family, but the ceremony proceeded without fanfare. A mild breeze swept through the park as Jon Hermes' parents and his sister, Lori Wilbur, placed the first shovelfuls of dirt around the trees.
The trees had been purchased from Lawrence's parks and recreation department by employees of Kinko's Copies, where Jon Hermes had worked for more than four years.
Larry Fitzgerald, manager of Kinko's, said employees raised about $200 among themselves to pay for the trees. Redbuds were chosen to match the trees already growing at South Park.
"He spent most of his free

time here," Fitzgerald said.
Wilbur described her brother as a devoted environmentalist who once aspired for a career as a graphic artist. She said she was touched by her brother's co-workers' gesture.
"That's a very meaningful thing," she said. "It shows that he not only meant a lot to his family but to his friends as well."
Kinko's intends to plant one tree each year in remembrance of Jon Hermes. Fitzgerald said the store hoped to keep the public aware of bicycle safety issues and environmental causes in the process.
"He was one of the most important people at the store at making sure that things were recycled, so this is very fitting," Fitzgerald said.

English class uses 'Bartleby' Web site to enhance learning
By Aaron Knopf
aknopf@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
He said he hoped the site would help his students to read the story more actively than they would using a printed version.
Springer, professor of English, has put the story on the Web and has linked it to historical information, literary criticism and other resources.
When students in Haskell Springer's American literature class read Herman Melville's "Bartleby, the Scrivenner," they do not open a book. They turn on their computers.
"You find in your anthology instructional material, and you find footnotes," Springer said. "But you can't find links to what people have said. You can't find visual illustrations of the locations in which the story takes place or of the individuals who are referred to in the story. All of that can be available on the Web site."
Thirty years of teaching have helped Springer realize this material would be valuable to students.
"I teach mostly the 19th and early-20th century in American literature, and I know very well that my students are not familiar with
much of the culture or geography or the contemporary references that appear in these works." Springer said.
To ensure students use the online resources, their next test will include information presented on the Web site, Springer said. Springer's Web site is accessible only to his students. He said eventually he would like to make it available to anyone who wanted to use it for educational research.
However, Springer said he did not see his Web site as a replacement for classroom teaching because literature courses require face-to-face interaction.
Some of Springer's students said they had benefited from having resources online.
"Because the site contains photographs of places and people pertinent to 'Bartleby,' it makes the story easier to comprehend," said Anise Deters, Harveyville senior.
Catherine Bolton, Lawrence junior, said Springer had created an exceptional Web site.
"I think that it's important to learn to navigate the 'Net because that is the wave of the future," Bolton said. "At the same time, we can't neglect understanding how to use the library."
Bolton said it might be difficult for students who did not have their own computers to find time to use the site thoroughly, especially with so many campus lab computers in use during the semester's end.
This is the second year Springer has used the "Bartleby" Web site. During the fall of 1998, Springers plan to take a sabbatical to begin putting "Moby Dick" online.
New support unit will help professors learn online design
By Aaron Knopf
aknopf@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Faculty members looking to develop projects such as Haskell Springer's "Bartleby" Web site will have a new place to go for assistance next year.
The lowest level of Budig Hall will house Instructional Development and Support Services, a new unit that will help faculty with online instructional design.
Associate Provost Sandra Gautt said the new unit would work closely with other campus organizations that support faculty in their instructional mission, such as the Center for Teaching Excellence and Academic Computing Services.
Gautt described how people in the new unit would assist faculty. In her example, a professor wants to learn how to incorporate PowerPoint, a software package for leading presentations, into his lectures.
"They sit down with the faculty member, and the process starts with a discussion about, 'How do you currently
teach? What is it you want to incorporate?
What do you want to change?" Gaunt said. "The discussion doesn't start with. How do I use PowerPoint?"
Gautt said such a discussion might reveal that a technical solution, such as using PowerPoint, was not the best possible one for conveying information.
Instructional Development and Support Services would have the necessary equipment, such as computers and scanners, to develop multimedia courses.
How the new unit will assist in the production of online course materials remains to be determined, Gautt said. Gautt said it was possible that student workers might do most of this work.
"There would be a corps of students available for departments to hire, on even a project basis, to work with faculty to do the production," Gautt said of one proposal.
Fred Rodriguez, director of the Center for Teaching Excellence, said this already was happening.
At a recent dinner and dialogue about technology and education sponsored by the center, Rodriguez said he asked the professors in attendance whether they had developed Web pages for their courses.
Of the 40 people in attendance, about 15 to 20 said they had Web sites, but none of the professors had developed the sites themselves, Rodriguez said. Students had done all the work, he said.
1998-1999 University/Community Service Scholarship Award
As a result of the efforts of many students saving the furniture and art objects while providing invaluable service to firefighters during the Kansas Union fire on April 20,1970, insurance carriers decided to present the Kansas Union with a gift. Each year,the Student Union Activities Board awards about $1,200 to deserving students who have made significant contributions to the University and Lawrence communities.

Skateboarders, rollerbladers have right to ride on campus
The University should reconsider its ban on skateboarding and rollerblading.
Several years ago, the city passed an ordinance, with support from the University, to ban rollerblading and skateboarding 1,000 feet from Jayhawk Boulevard.
The penalty is a fine, usually about $50.
This is an asinine ordinance that should be reconsidered. Skateboarding and rollerblading are legitimate forms of transportation and should not be discouraged.
Sgt. Chris Keary, of the KU Public Safety Office, said the ordinance was passed due to two problems. Windows in Wesco Hall were broken by skateboarders losing control of their boards and, in one incident, a skateboarder lost control of a board and hit someone in the head.
Though these are severe problems,
A city ordinance prohibiting skating near Jayhawk Boulevard should be repealed
banning skateboards from campus is ridiculous. Students have been hit by cars on campus, yet cars have not been banned. Occasionally a cyclist runs into a car or a person, yet bicycles are not banned.
Skateboarders and rollerbladers often claim they are wrongly targeted as misfits and hoodlums and are subsequently treated unfairly. This ordinance seems to prove that point.
Some people use skateboards and rollerblades to get around. At a time when alternative modes of transportation are being promoted and parking on campus is extremely difficult, boards and rollerblades should be encouraged.
Chancellor Robert Hemenway and University administrators need to be fair and urge the city to revoke the ordinance and allow skateboarders and rollerbladers on campus.
It is important to note that KU police officers do their best to treat skateboarders and rollerbladers fairly. Keary said that most of the time, instead of citing these offenders and making them pay a fine, the officers give warnings.
Keary said most people are not aware of the ordinance, and so officers suggest to boarders and bladers that they go to legal places, such as the Lied Center parking lot or the Lawrence Skate Park.
Only repeat offenders or those causing damage are cited. Keary said.
It's nice to see some respect from the KU police, but the best show of respect would be for the University to have the ordinance repealed.

Perspective
Rare controversy makes journalistic ethics tough
For those of you outside the journalism realm on campus, this year's cases of professional misconduct must seem as sensible as a pair of acid-washed jeans. But, as a
zygote in the School of Journalism, I can cognitively understand the internal conflict of a college newspaper journalist.
PETER J. HARRIS
First of all, The University Daily Kansan's reporters are reporting on the same silly subjects that all college reporters have reported on for the last 30 years. Underage drinking, date rape, and rebellion are not recent fads. To uncover a real political scandal in college is only a dream in the starry eyes of aspiring
Jenny Oakson
opinion@kansan.com
Woodwards and Bernsteins, I can imagine the nightmare of desperately trying to question a congressman or city official with a glaring Kansan press badge, emitting an odor of naivete. And all the screaming in the world couldn't get you a celebrity interview when you are a 20-year-old KU reporter as experienced as Donna Martin on Prom Night.
I have a problem with studying to be a professional, but only pretending to be a serious journalist. Let's face it, the biggest thing to hit the Kansan in a while was last year's student body campaign spending allegations. Our generation has no reason to hold a protest, but it has all the right outfits for one. We all want to find horrors in the system and be able to put our names on a petition for change. Every journalist's dream is to uncover something big nothing ever will be the same again. But our real destinies may have us writing obituaries for the Laurence Journal World. The war is over, the Greeks aren't that bad, and anything else that needs changing is on a flier for Delta Force.
What most students don't understand is that the crystal-clear directions of journalism have faded. The responsible journalism we are taught by the experts differs outrageously from
what makes money and gets the front page headline. Every story I write, like every decision in life, has a neon shortcut, with bright billboards begging me to enter. Not taking that path may be morally rewarding, but it is straining and exhausting. My professors tell me that it gets easier, and that if I can motivate myself to not imitate the successful news magazine pulp. I'm better than most.
Constantly we are urged to take the newsroom back, but I'm afraid to say I think the damage is beyond repair. There have been too many salesmen disguised as trustworthy souls that have sold us the news with a smile and a bias.
It just would be so beautiful if I could point my finger at some poor slob and name him the sole person responsible for the deterioration of journalistic integrity — but I am responsible. You are responsible.
We've all passed on the news for Craig Klorn. We've all bought a tabloid to see the 1,000-pound baby. There's not just one Atlas to carry the weight. We're all burdened, because the death of our standards now looms on the horizon.
Oh, the irony. The most misguided generation of the 20th century is America's only hope to clean up the mess. And we'll probably screw it up.
Fortunately, the two talented students to be expunged from the Kansan, though their credibility and reputations are left damaged, show hope for a revolution. That their behavior was not tolerated represents a giant security blanket covering those with good, ethical judgment. If only such security assured me that I am not earning a degree in an endangered field.
I suppose it's true that you can't be a journalist and a politician. The importance of the journalist's accepting mind is unmeasurable. I may not like you, I may even hate you, but if you're newsworthy, I'll write about you and love every minute of it. The charm and appeal of writing news can only be found by those who don't make it.

nonetheless. We tend to acc cumstances—our lives, positions, and the people around us—as the basic level on which we function. We want to move up not considering that where we are might be pretty darn good.
Clay McCuistion opinion@kansan.com
This was demonstrated recently in my life. One of my very best friends moved away from my hometown. I know that doesn't sound horribly tragic. "Stay in touch," you might tell me, "Go visit him at whatever college he's attending." But this friend isn't my age. He's not.
PETER WILSON
Eventually, I came upon a fast food restaurant. I won't call it by name, since I dislike the idea of using this space for advertising. Let's just say this establishment specialized in selling fried chicken and had a Southern colonel as its logo. I didn't know much about the place and seldom ate there.
The manager was tall, severely balding, paunchy, wore heavy glasses and sported an enormous walrus moustache. He said his name was Jon. The interview was brief and to the point: they needed a cook and they would take anyone. I was hired. I began working that week.
After filling out an application, I was told to come back the next day to meet with the manager. The implication was clear. I was going to be hired!
The summer after my junior year of high school, I received a parental ultimatum: "Find work or else." I began searching. Most places wouldn't talk to me, and some wouldn't even give me applications. I didn't have any experience and was looking to start somewhere—anywhere.
I worked for Jon the next year and two months.
During the school year, I only worked on week-

ends, sometimes just on Sunday. I made it clear I wouldn't give up any of the activities of my senior year for work. Jon didn't expect me to. He wouldn't hear of me leaving, either. However much I could work, whenever I could find the time, was enough for him.
The stories I could tell about Jou suffice to say he was unique. A man with a big family, booming voice, and a past as exaggerated and boisterous as he was. The type of guy that could first be in an awful mood, then serve customers with the utmost politeness and finish off the workday by singing any Elton John, Led Zeppelin or Garth Brooks song you asked him to.
He always had his business, of course. The restaurant hadn't been well-managed in the past, and he shouldered the burden of making it efficient and profitable. It wasn't an easy task, but he always made me feel as if I was appreciated, no matter what the circumstances of the restaurant were at the time.
Jon moved on, though. Another opportunity at another restaurant came up, and he took it. It would have been foolish for him not to have taken it. He was ready for a new challenge in his life.
Still, I'm a little sad about it. I didn't see him often after my move to college, even though I returned to talk every two or three months. I promised to keep in close touch each time I saw him. I didn't.
During Christmas break, he offered to let me work a few days. I turned him down. I rejected the chance to cook chicken partly because my time was limited but mostly because I was lazy. I assumed that I would return this summer to work at the restaurant.
My assumption was wrong
The man who was my first boss and taught me about perseverance, humor, and the ability to have a good time no matter what, has left. And I will always regret I didn't work for him that final time.

Feedback Titanic, Star Wars are not comparable
In reference to Aaron Marvin's column about *Titanic* vs. *Star Wars*, I would like to point out the fact that you cannot compare the two. The only similarities between them is that they are both good movies and parts of American cinematographic history. *Star Wars* is a fast-paced, science fiction movie that took three movies to develop characters. Characters who, I might add, are not very deep but good for the movie. *Titanic* is a deep, emotionally-moving movie that has complex characterizations

and less of a setting to work in.
One movie is aimed at masculine characteristics with its gun play, fights and explosions. Titanic is meant for people's emotional and feminine aspects. Looking at both movies through the same lens, which in the case of the column is the masculine one, Star Wars is superior, and Titanic seems to fizzle. But if analyzed separately, the superior one is obvious. The one that is superior is.. a matter of personal choice. They shouldn't be compared.
Correction
Due to a columnist's error, a column about an abortion bill in the Kansas Legislature in yesterday's University Daily Kansan gave the wrong phone number for Gov. Bill Graves' office.
The correct number at which input about the bill can be given is 1-860-748-4408.

"I don't want to deliver pizzas for the rest of my life." Benson said.
But he would keep doing it until a decent job came along.
Staples said the increase in temporary jobs, job insecurity and decrease in benefits has added up to a negative changes in the employer-employee relationship.
"Employees are less and less dedicated to their jobs because employers are less and less dedicated to their workers," Stanley said.
This shifting relationship means new graduates can look forward to changing jobs at a more frequent rate than 20 years ago.
"Before, you saw people staying with a company for their entire careers," Staples said. "Now, people change jobs five or six times in their lifetimes."
Fortune said this job jumping trend was not just because of the changing employer-employee relationship but also because of changing career attitudes.
People will stay at jobs for four or five years and then move onto another job to learn different sets of skills. Fortune said, adding, "This will enable them to rise in salary and position. People are less satisfied with staying in one job their entire careers."
Recent graduate Elrod does not plan on staying at Boeing for more than another year. He said he wanted to work at a variety of jobs.
"I should stay for five years of experience. Then I would be able
to apply to any aircraft company and I would be able to get a job," he said. "But the longer I stay where I am, the less my skills stay fresh in what I want to do."

for him was not much different than before
"You don't go out as much as you did in college because you have more bills, but it's basically the same," Mier said.
Mier, 24, works at Roark and Associates P.A., an accounting firm. He continues to live in the same college apartment with friends, like many recent college graduates.
Other students graduate and move home to save money. A recent survey by the U.S. Census Bureau shows that the number of 18 to 24-year-
olds living with their parents has increased by 6 percent to 53 percent in the last 25 years.
Mier said that he had considered living with his parents. "I'm going to graduate school so it would have helped me save money for that, but I realized I enjoyed my freedom and independence too much." he said.
The ultimate answer for the instability of the real world for some is simple: Go back to school.
Elrod said he would return to college to receive a master's degree in engineering and hoped to later work in research and development.
"The only thing that's stopping me from coming back to school now is money," he said.

Elected senators fear inefficiency
By Marc Sheforgen
msheforgen @kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
With last week's Student Senate elections leaving neither coalition with an overwhelming victory, some new senators worry that political division could render next year's governing body unproductive.
Delta Force won 34 Senate seats, and Campus Cause won 31, leaving neither side with a distinct advantage in next year's Senate. The nearly equal representation from each coalition could open the doors to inefficiency in passing legislation.
Although, ideally, senators cast aside their coalition affiliations after elections end, many senators agreed that this year, division plagued Senate's effectiveness.
Delta Force operates as a coalition and a student activist organization, meaning that senators elected with that party can remain members of the organization even after elections conclude.
"It seems to make it a little tougher."
said Leslie Peterson, newly elected business senator with Campus Cause. "It seems like they're still trying to be true to their ties as members of Delta Force instead of true to their ties as senators not attached to a coalition."
But Sam Pierron,
newly elected College of
Liberal Arts and Sciences
senator, with
Delta Force, said he thought that because so many of the newly elected representatives served on Senate last year that they would have learned a lesson and would not want to repeat what he called terrible division.
"Because people will know each other better next year, they should be more willing and more able to compromise," Pierron said. "I think that most of the people on Senate will generally vote their conscience."
Julie Numrich, newly elected College of Liberal Arts and Sciences senator with Campus Cause, agreed that because members of each coalition may know each other better next year working together may be easier.
"I know a lot of people from Delta Force, and I think they're great people," she said. "Ihone

people learned a lot of lessons from this year's Senate and how we really didn't get a lot accomplished."
Mike Walden, this year's vice president predicted better relations in next year's Senate. He said that last year's campaign was heated and that some hard feelings may have contributed to the division in this year's Senate.
"I believe that this year was really an aberration from the way things have been in the past," Walden said.
Mother Earth issues grow in importance
Senate branches out considers environment
By Graham K. Johnson

Kansas staff writer
For Student Senate, going green has become a red hot trend in recent years.
The recent Student Senate campaigns made environmental issues a high profile concern for next year's Senate. But this is part of a Student Senate trend in the past two or three years toward a more active concern for the environment.
Newly elected student body president Kevin Yoder said that he would work to advance environmental improvements on campus next year by shaking up the Student Environmental Advisory Board by gaining new members
and working with the administration to establish concrete plans. He also said he would try to upgrade ongoing recycling efforts
with additional equipment.
"I'd like to continue to focus toward long-range solutions to our recycling program, such as building a recycling center." Yoder said.
Yoder said that his campaign focused on continuing efforts to improve recycling, which is part of a trend in increased environmental awareness that he said he had noticed and wanted to continue.
Yoder: Wants a campus recycling center.
Mike Russell, director of the University of Kansas' Environmental Health and Safety department, said his office had worked closely with Student Senate during the last two years and had noticed a change.
"Coming here six years ago, there wasn't the type of interest and integration of people working together for the environment as there is now," Russell said.
Danny Kaiser, director of the Student Organizations and Leadership Development Center, said that, as an advisor to Student Senate, he had noticed that environmental issues had become almost as important as some of the more perennial Senate issues, such as the use of student fees, transportation and the all-important issues surrounding student advising.
Reasons for this trend vary.
said that a successful effort, led by former student body president Grey Montgomery, to finance a comprehensive recycling program with campus fees had succeeded in making recycling and other environmental issues an integral part of Senate politics.
Kelly Huffman, chairman of Student Senate Executive Committee,
Huffman said that with student fees involved in the recycling program, recycling had become a big issue in Senate.
Russell said he had noticed several years ago that there seemed to be a group of students who came to the University interested in the environment and had influenced campus politics by becoming active. He said that many of them had formed or joined groups, such as KU Environs, devoted to influencing environmental policy.
"I think the student environmental groups really helped elevate the debate." Russell said.
Women who contribute to university, community to get awards at program

Kanson staff writer
The Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center and the Commission on the Status of Women will recognize outstanding University of Kansas women tonight during the Annual Women's Recognition Program.
The program will take place at 8 p.m. at the Alderson Auditorium in the Kansas Union. In addition to distributing awards, the resource center and the commission will provide dinner for the award recipients and their guests.
The goal of the program is to honor female students, staff and faculty who provide unique contributions to women, the University or the community, said Barbara Ballard, associate dean of student life and director of the resource center.
Ballard said that there were more than 40 nominations this year and that about 12 to 14 women would be recognized.
The program has existed for more than 40 years and is a way to get more women involved in the campus, Ballard said. She also said the program was established to identify female role models.
"It's just a fun program to recognize the contribution of women on campus and in the community." Ballard said.
"You have so many places in history where women were not recognized for what they have accomplished, and this is a way to be supportive of the work women on campus are doing," she said.
Ballard said that recipients of the awards were selected in February after they submitted applications and recommendation letters.
Women will be recognized in the categories of Outstanding
The applications were reviewed by a recognition commission.

Awarded faculty and staff will receive certificates of recognition and flowers, while nominated students will receive certificates and cash awards from the KU Women's Memorial Award Fund.
Women's basketball coach Marian Washington will be the event's keynote speaker.
"I think it's a tremendous opportunity for women doing so many positive things to have a chance to be recognized and speak about women in leadership roles," Washington said.
She said it was rewarding to see women in athletics being recognized for the KU Women's Hall of Fame award.
"It's also neat to be there as a spectator and see so many young women of other areas to receive such recognition," Washington said.
Tanya Kooi, assistant director of the Emily Taylor Center, said award recipients would not be revealed until the last minute.
"It's a surprise," Kooi said. "Even when we read the citation for the recipient, we don't announce their names."

Staying at home gives dogs best leash on life
By Tamara Miller
tmiller@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
As temperatures start to rise, dog owners need to put a leash on their puppy love.
The number of dog-at-large citations tends to increase during the warm weather, said Sgt. Chris Keary of the KU Office of Public Safety. Many students tie their dogs to trees on campus while they are in class. However, city ordinance requires that dogs be supervised at all times. Most of the time, the owner is not ticketed for leaving the dog alone on campus, Keary said.
"Generally, if the dog is not causing a problem, we don't deal with it," he said.
Most of the citations involve noise complaints, such as a dog barking so loudly it disrupts a classroom, Keary said. If the owner is not present, the KU Office of Public Safety calls the Lawrence Police Department's animal control to pick up the dog, he said.
An owner also can be cited if his or her dog is a threat to other dogs or people.
Emily Cowles, Overland Park sophomore, said her dog Ginger, a German shepherd and Labrador mix, was attacked April 13 while the two were walking through campus. The dog that attacked Ginger was tied to a tree in front of Stauffer-Flint Hall. She said Ginger also was on a leash
when the incident occurred.
The dog was tied up by a cable "leash, but it wasn't strong enough." Cowles said. "The second time she lunged at Ginger, it broke the leash."
Three passing students had to help restrain the dog, she said. She reported the incident to the KU police later that night because Ginger developed a limp.
"I wouldn't have reported it, except I knew there would be a vet bill," Cowles said.
Ginger received two puncture wounds. The owner of the dog was cited for the incident and must pay the $40 veterinarian bill. However, Cowles does not blame the owner of the dog for the incident.
"You assume that if you tie your dog up to a tree, it's going to be okay," she said. "I know if that were my dog, I'd still love it."
Kristin Fulford, Palatine, Ill., senior, said she was uncomfortable leaving her dog, Bailey, on campus. Although Bailey is friendly, Fulford still uses a strong leash when walking her.
"It all depends on the training of the dog," she said. "I know Bailey gets sidetracked really easily."
Bailey receives much of her exercise in the yard behind Fulford's house. Fulford said it would be hard for owners to give their dogs plenty of exercise without a backyard.
"A lot of owners don't allow dogs," she said. "I wouldn't live in an apartor students who decide to bring their dogs on campus, there are many different types of leashes, each with its own purposes and different size needs.

ment with Bailey."
Although many students enjoy roaming on campus with their dogs, the KU Office of Public Safety recommends that students keep their dogs at home, Keary said.
He said that when students brought their dogs to campus, they were subjecting the dogs to an environment with which they are unfamiliar.

Students tiptoe through tulips in search of allergy relief

Chad King's allergy symptoms have worsened during the last couple of days.
King, Overland Park senior, is allergic to grass and clover, among other things.
With trees budding, grasses springing up, humidity levels rising and spores growing.
allergies are a sure thing for many people. There is help to alleviate the symptoms, said Randall Rock, physician and chief of staff at Watkins Memorial Health Center
The first tactic is to avoid the things that set off allergic reactions, Rock said. He advised staying indoors as much as possible and keeping the windows closed.
"People should rely on the heating and cooling systems in their homes to filter the air, and the filters should be changed routinely." Rock said
Antihistamines are among the arsenal of weapons used to combat symptoms of allergies. Rock said.
A wide range of oral antihistamines is available both through
"These directly affect the release of histamine and the subsequent itchy eyes, runny nose and swollen respiratory tract that accompany seasonal allergies," Rock said.
This is not to be confused with anabolic steroids that may be used inappropriately when people want
Another tactic to fight allergy symptoms is the use of steroid nasal sprays. Sprays are a topical application of an anti-inflammatory medication and allow users to avoid the side effects that may accompany oral steroid use, Rock said.
prescription and over-the-counter medications.
to bulk up, he said.
"For many people, steroid nasal sprays are as effective as oral antihistamines without the sedating side effects." Rock said. "Many patients like the idea of putting a medication where their symptoms are."
The steroid nasal spray is used only during the allergy seasons and may be used in conjunction with oral antihistamines, Rock said.
King said that he had tried the steroid nasal sprays in the past but that they did not work for him. He said he was using the Claritin 24-hour oral antihistamine.
Amy Dodson, Chicago sophomore, said steroid nasal sprays as well as Benadryl and a prescription medicine gave relief to her allergy symptoms.
"I really don't like taking medicine," Dodson said, "But when I have to, these help."

Man beaten in alleged hazing
Kappa Alpha Psi chapter at K-State under investigation
Kansas State University suspended the local chapter of the fraternity yesterday. Kappa Alpha Psi has been linked to hazing incidents at two other universities and settled a $2.25 million lawsuit in December 1996 with the family of a man who died after a beating.
KANSAS CITY, Kan. — A man was beaten severely in an apparent hazing ritual, and he had dropped out of the same fraternity's initiation process last year after suffering injuries in a similar incident.
The Associated Press
Ernest L. Harris Jr., 23, was in serious but stable condition yesterday after being beaten Saturday in Manhattan in an apparent hazing ritual required to join the Kappa Alpha Psifraternity.
this week or early next week.
Harris suffered kidney injuries that will cause him to undergo dialysis. Ben Cowley said at a news conference at the University of Kansas Medical Center. But such injuries generally are reversible, and Harris could leave the hospital by late
Harris was at the home of a fraternity member Saturday when he was beaten, said his father, Ernest L. Harris Sr., of Wichita. His son had welts and bruises across much of his body, especially his buttocks and legs.
The elder Harris said his son had dropped out of the initiation process for the same fraternity last year after he was injured. He offered few other details of that incident.
"He stopped it (last year) and said he wasn't going to go through with it," Harris said. "Then some of his associates made him trust them again, so he went through it again."
to say that he was disappointed. The younger Harris' fiancee, Jaimee Denby, said the initiation got out of hand because some of those at the house were drunk. She said Harris wanted to join the fraternity because it provided community work, social interaction and networking opportunities.
"He just wanted to be affiliated with a service organization," she said. "He was very interested in the positive aspects of the group."
The elder Harris said those responsible used paddle boards, fists and canes to beat his son.
"I tried to talk to him (about joining the fraternity), but he had his mind made up," Harris said. "He trusted them."
Kansas State said in a statement that apparently only one member of the four-member Beta Psi chapter was involved.
Six to eight other people who had no relation to the fraternity or to Kansas State may have been involved, said Pat Bosco, associate vice president for institutional advancement and dean of student life.
But Bosco said the involvement of one member was enough to suspend the fraternity to show that such conduct would not be tolerated.
Riley County police were investigating.
Harris graduated from Kansas State in December with a degree in business administration. The school said he was an alumni member of Kappa Alpha Psi.
The suspension is the first step toward expulsion of the fraternity. At least two other campus groups
— the Multicultural Student Organization and the National Pan-Hellenic Council — were expected to consider exelling the fraternity.
Bosco said the fraternity was suspended for violations of the Kansas State student conduct code, including a provision that prohibits hazing.
"He just wanted to be affiliated with a service organization. He was very interested in the positive aspects of the group."
Kappa Alpha Psi recently has been linked to other alleged hazing incidents at two other universities. Five pledges at the University of Maryland-Eastern Shore were beaten with wooden paddles and canes during a two-month initiation from Feb. 8 to April 4, officials said.
The pledges were hospitalized and underwent surgery for cuts and infections on their buttocks, caused by daily spankings, authorities said.
Jaimee Denby Victim's fiancee
The fraternity settled a $2.25 million lawsuit in December 1996 with the family of Michael Davis, who died in February 1994 after being beaten, body-slammed and kicked in the chest by fraternity members at Southeast Missouri State University.
Big universities flunk undergraduate study
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Big universities too often neglect undergraduates in favor of research, even though undergraduates pay a big share of the costs, says an independent report released yesterday.
The panel of scholars and some outsiders assembled by the nonprofit organization found that undergraduate students often were taught by poorly trained or untrained teaching assistants, not the famous professors touted in the catalogs or recruiting materials, and many students graduate without a coherent body of knowledge.
"Baccalureaate students are the second-class citizens who are allowed to pay taxes but are barred from voting, the guests at the banquet who pay their share of the tab but are given leftovers," said the report from the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching.
Few have access that distinguishes the research universities from liberal arts colleges: the access to a diverse, interdisciplinary opportunities for experience-based education.
The report, "Reinventing Undergraduate Education: A Blueprint for America's Research Universities," said universities should involve more undergraduates in those research projects, whether in medicine or the humanities, beginning with freshmen.
"Research universities are distinctively different from small colleges, and they need to offer an experience that is a clear alternative to the college experience," the report said, adding that a number of institutions have made changes.
Syracuse University, using a
"Research universities are distinctively different from small colleges, and they need to offer an experience that is a clear alternative to the college experience."
Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching report
grant, helps develop teaching abilities of graduate students. A program at the State University of New York in Stony Brook gives undergraduates the opportunity to work with faculty researchers and artists at area laboratories, such as Brookhaven National Laboratory.
The universities mentioned as emphasizing graduate education and research instead of undergraduate studies include Harvard University, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, the University of Alabama at Birmingham and Kent State University. The 125
research institutions in this country make up only 3 percent of the institutions of higher learning, yet those schools award nearly a third of the bachelor's degrees.
The report recommends that freshmen be placed in small groups where they live together and take the same courses. It also says students should be involved in the research conducted by senior faculty and that they should be encouraged to conduct original research that could become their transition into graduate school.

As the Kansas baseball team's postseason hopes fade, senior centerfielder Clint Wyrick maintains that it is important for the team to fight until the last pitch of the season.
The Jayhawks (18-22) travel to tradition-rich Austin for a doubleheader today and a single game tomorrow against the Texas Longhorns (16-23).
Wryk said he thought the team would finish the season with a bang. After Texas, the Jayhawks play Texas A&M this weekend and Kansas State next week.
"Texas and Kansas State aren't doing that well, and I think we can sweep them," Wyrick said. "If we can take two of three against Texas A&M, then we have a good chance to make the Big 12 tournament. Anything can happen after that."
Wyrick, who transferred from New Mexico after last season, has become a fixture in the outfield and the second spot in the batting order. He has rebounded from a 1-19 start at the plate this season to a .333 batting average and stole 19 bases.
Wryrick also leads the team with 35 runs scored, and he had a 17-game hitting streak earlier this season, which tied for the third-longest in school history.
"After the rough start, he has been hard for the opposition to get out," coach Bobby Randall said. "We didn't know much about him coming in, but he's found confidence at the plate and in the outfield."
starting every day at a big school like Kansas."
"I called Coach Bard and asked him for a chance," Wryck said. "It's great be
Wyrick played for assistant coach Mike Bard at Howard (Texas) Junior College before moving to New Mexico last season. Problems with coaches ensued, and Wyrick thought it was time for a change.
Bard said the decision was a no-brainer.
"He is pound-for-pound the strongest guy on the team, and I knew he could play," Bard said. "He has been outstanding for us in center field."
If the Jayhawks win seven of their 12 remaining games. Randall's career record would even out at 391-391-1.
- The consensus college top five includes Stanford, Miami, Alabama.
Louisiana State and Florida. Big 12 teams Baylor, Oklahoma, Texas A&M and Texas Tech all are in the top 25. Baylor is ranked as high as fifth in one poll.
Kansas ranks sixth in the 11-team conference with a .309 batting average. Texas Tech leads the conference with a .344 average.

With only six games remaining in the regular season, the 24-31 Kansas softball team looks to pick up some big wins today.
By Laura Bokenkroger Kansan sportswriter
The Jayhawks play Southwest Missouri State today in a doubleheader at 3 and 5 p.m. at Jayhawk Field.
Kansas defeated Southwest Missouri State 6-1 earlier this season at the Capital Classic Tournament in Sacramento. Six Jayhawks collected hits in the victory, led by catcher Kristina Johnson, who went 3-for-4.
After losing all four games last weekend against Iowa State and No. 7 Nebraska, the Jayhawks fell to 6-10 in the Big 12 Conference.
The Jayhawks have struggled this season, falling out of the top 25 after being ranked ninth in the preseason poll. Coach Tracy Bunge said their goals had to change after the disappointing regular season.
This season, the Jayhawks are 5-1 against teams in the Missouri Valley Conference, with their only loss coming from Wichita State.
The Jayhawks have only two more conference games
Kansas will honor its seniors and close out conference play in games against Missouri at 12 and 2 p.m. Saturday at Javahawk Field.

Four students to be Chiefs cheerleaders
By Tommy Gallagher

Kansan sportswriter
KU students who made the final cut included Elizabeth Burgess, Leavenworth sophomore; Holly Major, Lawrence senior; Stephanie McCarty, Kansas City, Kan., sophomore; and Aisha Steele, Olathe freshman.
More than 250 women have dreamed of becoming cheerleaders for the Kansas City Chiefs since March. Among them, four Kansas students made the 34-member squad Sunday.
They earn $35 per game and receive two season tickets to all home games. They also make money for additional appearances and promotions, such as autograph sessions and sports memorabilia shows, where the cheerleaders can make as much as $75 for an hour or two.
Chiefs cheerleaders enjoy several perks associated with the job.
And in August, the cheerleaders will travel to Tokyo, where the Chiefs will play the Green Bay Packers in a preseason game.
McCarty said she made more than $1,000 last year, her first season as a Chiefs cheerleader.
She said that amount was nothing compared to the money earned by other cheerleaders.
McCarty said she was pleased to return for another season but she would have higher expectations this fall.
"Last year I wasn't expected to make the squad.
so that made it more exciting. "McCarty said. "This year there was more for me to lose. And more will be expected of me this season."
McCarty could help the other three KU students learn what she did last year.
Steele, a first-time selection, said this job could help her in the future.
"I was screaming on the phone when I found out that I had made the team," Steele said. "I was really excited. But later, it really hit me that this was a professional opportunity that could help me down the road."
Steele said she had dreamed of becoming a Crimson Girl at the University since high school. That dream has been put on hold, but she said that she would try to become a Crimson Girl next year.
The search for Chiefs cheerleaders began with workshops held last fall. More than 250 people attended the workshops, though only 51 finalists remained heading into Sunday.
Donna Scott, Chiefs game production manager,made the final cut to 34 women. Squad practices officially will begin in June.
McCarty said the satisfaction was not because of the money.
"I would do this without being paid, without receiving any of the benefits," McCarty said. "For me, just seeing more than 80,000 cheering fans at Arrowhead Stadium — I don't know how I can describe it. It has been an incredible experience."
Commentary
Lack of interest may have made Kansas Relays run last races
The Kansas Relays did not happen this year, and almost no one seemed to miss them. There was not a great protest or rally, a flood of letters to the Athletics Department or an outcry from former track stars that the Relays were not held this year.
Quietly, the Relays didn't happen, and like when they do occur, no one paid attention. But I missed them
But I missed them.
Through the years, I have been to more Kansas Relays than most people. That is easy to say based on past attendance numbers.
And each year, I have taken memories with me:

The return of Jim Rvun. Wes Santee and
These are just a few of the many great moments the Relays have provided. But this year, the only memory will be that there were no Relays.
Glenn Cunningham in 1981. Olympic pole vaulter Joe Dial wowing the crowd in 1987. My high school peer Winston Tidwell being named outstanding performer in 1993. Kansas graduate Sarah Hebe returning last season to participate in the first-ever steeplechase held at the Relays.
Because of renovations under way at Memorial Stadium, this year's Relays were canceled. It is only the second time in the Relays' history that the event has been called off. The last time was from 1943 to 1945 while the country was fighting World War II.
It is a blow, not just to the rich 75 year tradition of the Relays but to the event's future.
The truth is that during the last 10 years, the Relays has lost its luster. Attendance was pathetic, and the level of competition was poor compared to the great athletes who had participated since the Relays beginnings in 1923 through the late 1880s.
The 1909s had not been good to the Relays until last year when the tide turned. Columbia/HCA Healthcare became a sponsor, and it was willing to spend what it took to make the Relays great again.
Columbia poured money into the event, and it paid off. More than 50 universities, 180 high schools and 15 Olympians participated. The result was perhaps the best Relays in at least a decade.
Last year was supposed to be the Relays' new beginning. All the Relays needed, the track office and Athletics Department said, was a jump start to regain the status of being one of the premier track and field events in the country.
There was excitement, hope and renewed energy. Then, there was a cancellation.
Excitement was squashed, hopes were dashed and the renewed energy burned out. The jump start was for nothing.
The cancellation may have killed the Relays. It will be hard to restart the event after a year's delay.
Questions about the status of next year's Relays are making things worse. At the end of the football season, the stadium renovations will continue with the construction of a new and improved press box. Therefore, the stadium may not be available next year.
If the Athletics Department is as smart as it claims to be, then it will not let this happen. Another year of cancellation would kill the Relays for good. It is bad enough people have not paid attention the past few years, but a two-year hiatus would wipe it completely out of people's minds.
The Athletics Department needs to do one of two things: Either make sure Memorial Stadium is in good enough shape to hold the event or start search for somewhere else.
The Relays are a big event, but there are probably some places in Kansas City that could accommodate it.
If the Athletics Department does not do one of those things happen, then last year may have been the Relay's final run.
That's not a memory anyone wants to have.
Or maybe it's good riddance. After all, no one complained this year.

Aries: Today is a 6.
Early meetings should be productive. You'll have good advice to give, which will benefit the entire group. You even might find yourself in a position of leadership again. If so, let somebody else handle the money. A Taurus would be better at that.
aurus: Today is a 7.
If you can hold off a little longer, you're likely to get what you want. If you push, you probably won't. This evening, conditions are more in your favor. A friend's support makes you stronger and luckier.
Gemini: Today is a 5.
You're pretty flexible, and you're going to be the one who has to give a little today. Unfortunately, several people have opinions about what you should be doing with your time.
Cancer: Today is an 8.
Once you get your financial situation straightened out, plan an adventure. You and your sweetheart need a vacation. A visit to friends or in-laws would be an excellent choice.
Leo: Today is a 5.
During the morning, strong individuals in your life may think they've found the opening to tell you how they really feel. Don't worry. You can turn this game around on them. Ask for their advice.

Capricorn: Today is a 7.
Aauarius: Today is a 5.
You can do a lot of those household projects yourself You have the money, but there's no need to spend it. Talk about it with a knowledgeable relative and be willing to learn.

Pisces: Today is an 8.
2
Take your time and do things right. You may not get a chance to do them again, especially if you are dealing with a large company or bureaucracy. It might be better to wait until tomorrow. If that's not possible, just shift your decisions to as late in the day as possible.

Jaguay Walls.
Walls, who helped Compton to a California state junior college championship, is one of the three point guards Patton signed this year. During the fall period, the Buffalooes signed Brian Kizzie, 5-8 from Memphis, and José Winston, 5-11 from Milwaukee.
"I thought we got caught shorthanded without a true point guard this last season," Patton said. "We did not want to get caught in that position next year."
Walls and Winston offer different skills. Walls is a deadly outside shooter, while Winston is a more prototype point guard, a passer first and tough defender.
Patton said. "He shoots the ball as well as runs and does a great job of running the team."
"I wouldn't be opposed to having them on the floor at the same time," Patton said. "I wanted the offensive threat that Walls gives us to take some pressure our shooting guard Kenny Price and the passing and defensive skills of Winston."
The signing of the three point guards and Carlton Carter, Nick Mohr, Steve Ryan and Kyle Williams in the fall pushes Colorado past the 13 scholarship limit allowed by the NCAA.
"Thirteen is the limit, and we will be there," Patton said. "By fall of next season, we will be in compliance."

Wizards again lack magic potion
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON—Their three years together in Washington have brought more embarrassment than success. Now, with the Wizards out of the playoffs once again, the front office must wrestle with the continuing question: Is it time to break up Chris Webber and Juwan Howard?
"I'm pretty sure the area, the fans, the organization are looking for a change for next season." Howard said as the team missed the postseason for the ninth time in 10 years.
"I'm pretty sure they're going to make some changes. You've got to respect this organization. They want to win. They wanted us to produce."
The Wizards were the most disappointing team in the league on the court and brought disgrace off it. Injuries, inconsistency, lack of leadership, two arrests, an in-team fight and a grand jury investigation all put a stain on the first season in owner Abe Pollin's shiny, new $200 million arena.
It's was almost too much for anyone to take, including the coach.
"I'm going to take some time off and get rid of the emotions," Bernie Bickerstaff said yesterday.
Bickerstaff and general manager Wes Unseld say they aren't going to make snap decisions about the team whose last playoff chance died Sunday when New Jersey got the last spot by beating Detroit. But it's no secret that friction exists between management and the team's two star forwards.
Webber was upset when Unseld criticized the players' judgment after he and Howard were named in a sexual assault complaint earlier this month.
"I'd love to stay here," said Howard, who signed a contract with Miami two years ago before the league leveled it and gave Washington another chance to keep him. "I just want to win, like everyone else."
When the University of Michigan buddies arrived in 1994 — Howard via the draft, Webber from Golden State — there were consensus predictions that Washington would soon rise.
Bulls.
CS
Last year, the apparent breakthrough came. The team put together a late surge to make the playoffs for the first time in eight years, then earned praise from Michael Jordan as a championship-contender-of-the-future after three close games with the
WIZARDS
the Wizards to play down the violent connotation, the team moved from the suburbs to downtown.
Injuries didn't help. Center George Muresan missed the whole season with a leg injury that surfaced while filming a movie, and he may never play again. Tim Legler and Lorenzo Williams also missed huge chunks of the season.
But that left a potent lineup of Webber, Howard, Rod Strickland, Calbert Cheaney and sixth man Tracy Murray. Victories over Chicago, Seattle, Utah and the Los Angeles Lakers displayed the team's potential, yet the lack of a locker-room leader meant Webber and Howard would lose their focus in losses against some of the NBA's worst teams.
Away from the arena, Strickland and Murray got into a fight at a Charlotte hotel. Strickland appeared in court on a drunken-driving charge, and Webber is
awaiting trial on charges of possessing marijuana. Then, on April 6, a woman filed a sexual assault complaint naming Webber and Howard after a late party at Howard's house. They denied any wrongdoing; the case is in the hands of a grand hury.
No wonder fans were scratching their heads when Webber, after the team's last game Saturday, called it "a pretty good year."
"Because we've all stuck together." Webber said. "And we have remained friends through it all, so basically it's been a pretty good year."
In Washington, there is talk not just of trading Webber or Howard but whether both should go. The team also has to decide whether to re-sign Strickland, the NBA assists leader, whose outstanding season was tempered by poor practice habits, his fight with Murray and a torn muscle late in the season.
For now, Bickerstaff said, he is only going to dwell on the positives.
"I think a positive was the way Chris Whitney and Ben Wallace stepped up." Bickerstaff said. "They got an opportunity."
He didn't mention Webber or Howard.
Runaway Love still reigns supreme at MCI Classic
The Associated Press
HILTON HEAD ISLAND, S.C. — Birdies fell everywhere for Davis Love III at the MCI Classic, including at his feet.
While in the midst of his runaway victory Sunday, Love was distracted on No. 12 when a baby bird fell from a tree by his ball.
"The mother and father started attacking me, and I really didn't do anything," he said.
Maybe that was their way of breaking Love's concentration at Harbour Town Golf Links. After all, no else could. Love cruised to his fourth MCI victory in record-setting style.
"To win four times here is really unbelievable, but I won this three times when I really needed something, and I think it doesn't have as much to do with the golf course as the time of the year," Love said. So much work!
He shot a 7-under-par 65 for an 18-under 266 total, one off Loren Roberts' 1996 record, and won by seven strokes, bettering Nick Price's record six-shot victory last year.
His on-target irons and precise putting led to seven birdies — the golf kind — as Love ended an expected duel with Phil Mickelson on the front nine and almost matched the scoring record on the back.
So much work goes into his preparation for the Masters, he says, that it often pays off at the MCI.
"I just need to find a way to get that backed up a week," said Love, who won $342,000 for his first victory since the Buick Challenge last October.
It would take an encyclopedia to list Love's Harbour Town honors since first showing up as a 13-year-old junior prodigy.
He's the event's career money leader with $941,553; he's the tournament's youngest champion (23 in 1987); he's among the two repeat winners, with titles in 1991 and 1992; and he's the only one with four claid MCI champions coats.
For Mickelson, it was his second straight Sunday collapse. He was two shots behind Fred Couples in the Masters through 54 holes and shot a closing 74.
Here, Mickelson trailed by two strokes at the start of the last round, and matched Love's second-hole birdie, but never got that close again. He faded to a 73.
A lot was expected of the Love-Mickelson pairing. The two played a memorable match in the American finals of the Andersen Consulting World Championships nearly a year ago, with Love landing a tee shot within two feet of the flag to win on the second playoff hole.
Love made sure that didn't happen here. When Mickelson's approach on No. 3 came in 10 feet, Love
plopped his to six inches. After Mickelson chipped to six feet set to up birdie on the par-5 5th, Love got his to three feet.
At No. 8, Love slipped his second shot within a foot for a tap-in birdie. A hole later, Mickelson made the last of three straight bogeys and Love was ahead by seven shots.
"I'm excited I had the chance to win the past few Sundays," Mickelson said. "I haven't done it, but as long as I keep getting the opportunities, I will."
Glen Day was the only one besides Love to control the swirling Harbour Town winds, shooting a 67 to finish second at 10-under. Day finished second in The Players Championship and third in the Freeport-McDermott the past month.
Payne Stewart, who shot the tournament's low round of 64 on Saturday, had hoped to join him as a three-time MCI winner. But Stewart bogeyed the first hole to drop from contention and tied Mickelson for third after a 72.
Divots: Nick Faldo shot an 83 and finished last at 16-over among those who made the cut. It is first time that's happened to Faldo in 219 tournaments since 1979. One day after Love angrily said that golf fans needed to have better etiquette on the course, he pointed out a couple trying to snap a picture while Mickelson teed off on No. 2. The couple was warned to put the camera away.
Hornets guard plans to appeal ruling
The Associated Press
HOUSTON — Charlotte Hornsby guard Vernon Maxwell must remain in a Houston jail on a marijuana conviction, though he might get to return during the playoffs, a judge ruled yesterday.
State District Judge Jay Burnett denied Maxwell's claim that he received ineffective counsel in 1995 when he pleaded no contest to marijuana possession.
However, Maxwell's attorneys immediately announced their
intention to appeal yesterday's ruling. Maxwell is scheduled to appear before Burnett this morning to determine if he should be

Asked if she expected Maxwell's latest appeal, prosecutor Connie Spence said, "Nothing

Maxwell had been free on $25,000 bond since the conviction, but the U.S. Supreme Court declined to hear his case in February. He surrendered to Harris County authorities a week ago to begin serving a 90-day sentence.
In addition to claiming he had inadequate counsel, Maxwell also said the search of his car during a routine traffic stop was illegal.

Charlotte opens the playoffs at home Thursday against Atlanta.
Carolina could get Redskin defender
The Associated Press
CHARLOTTE, N.C. - The Carolina Panthers signed Sean Gilbert to an offer sheet yesterday, moving them one step closer to completing their four-week quest to acquire him from the Washington Redskins.
The Redskins have seven days to match the Panthers' seven-year offer oi $46.5 million contract, a deal that would make Gilbert the NFL's highest-paid defender.
Washington is expected to let Gilbert go to Carolina and receive two first-round draft choices from the Panthers. Washington gave up one first-round pick to acquire Gilbert from the St. Louis Rams in 1996.
The offer Gilbert signed Monday is the same deal he was offered March 24. But the Panthers and Redskins could not agree on compensation; Washington demanded Carolina's first-round choice in last weekend's draft, and the Panthers refused.
But the Panthers made a trade Thursday with Miami that gave them an extra first-round choice in the 2000 draft, thereby freeing Carolina to complete the post-draft acquisition of Gilbert.
Gilbert's relationship with the Redskins soured early last spring when the team designated him as its franchise player for 1997. The Redskins then offered Gilbert a multiyear contract averaging $4 million per year, but Gilbert wanted at least $4.5 million.
His deal with the Panthers, which includes a $10 million signing bonus, would average more than $6.6 million.

Bulls shoot for three as playoff favorites
They have been the InvinciBulls, the VulneraBulls and now the PerishaBulls.
The Associated Press
They won three straight titles from 1991 to 1993, missed out in 1994-95 and 1995-96 when Michael Jordan was playing minor league baseball, then won the last two.
They want to become the Repeat-Threepeat Bulls before they are finished.
When the NBA playoffs begin Thursday night, the Chicago Bulls will be favored to win their sixth championship of the 1990s, a run of success that has
made them one of the greatest dynasties in professional sports history.
Not only that, they dominated the league the past two seasons, going a combined 141-23 in the regular season and 30-7 in the postseason.
Their record dropped to 62-20 this season, the same record as the defending Western Conference champion Utah Jazz. But the Bulls built their mark despite playing through the distraction of Jordan
threatening to retire, Scottie Piper vowing to leave, coach Phil Jackson finishing out a one-year contract, general manager Jerry Krause trading

At the very least, several of the Bulls

"I guarantee this team is going to come back and look good. The mundane look will be gone," Jackson said.
"As a guy experienced in going
through threepeats, our third championship series in the early 90s followed a year that was much more difficult than this year
was. We were younger and more athletic, yet had a much harder struggle, and that team didn't look half as good as this team," Jackson said.
The Bulls will be playing a New Jersey Nets team that slumped during the second half of the season and didn't qualify until the last day of the season.

Ryan: Baseball striking out
The Associated Press
PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla. He sees scores better suited for football and games lasting 4/12 hours. He says the pitching is diluted and the umpiring inconsistent.
Nolan Ryan, the major leag
"I don't
.
think it's good for the game," he said. "What I would like to see is more consistent-type scores — 4-3 games. ... I don't think people want to go out there and sit through 4, 4 1/2-hour ball games."
Ryan, 51, who retired in 1993 from the Texas Rangers after becoming the only man to record 5,000 strikeouts, says he was somewhat perplexed by the pitching in today's game.
"Your athletes are bigger and stronger. But the one area you're not finding is many hard-throwing
pitchers," he told The Associated Press during a break from his role as a representative for Advil, which sponsored the PGA Seniors' Championship in Palm Beach Gardens.
"When I grew up, you played whatever season it was," he said. "Nowadays, kids play the same sport year-round. If that's the case, it would look like you'd be producing pitchers who decided they wanted to pitch. There'd be more strength."
But clearly, in Ryan's view, there is not. And there is no quick fix.
For starters, though, Ryan would put the mound back to where it was when he began pitching in the big leagues in 1968. And, as an admitted purist, he would eliminate the designated hitter. He also would put umpires under one umbrella group to increase consistency.
"I think if you'd just call the strike zone from what it is in the rule book that you would see pitching improve." he said.
Ryan has been busy in his five years of so-called retirement. He
owns a bank outside Houston, sits on the state's Parks and Wildlife Commission and has kept several celebrity endorsements. He has taken up golf, downhill skiing and owns a cattle ranch.
But, ves. the arm still works.
"I can still go out and throw, but it's the other things," he said, estimating his pitches would be in the 90s. "You know, you have an Achilles problem or something else happens, you sprain your elbow. You spend so much time rehabbing, it just wasn't productive time anvmore."
Ryan said he was disappointed by the dismantling of the Florida Marlins — who were held up as a model for expansion after winning a World Series in just five years — then quited for payroll reasons.
"I think I was as amazed by that as anyone," he said. "It shows how much the game has changed since I broke in. Economics drives things so much more now. Baseball has a tendency to take two steps forward and one backward."
Victory is sweet for Red Sox
The Associated Press
BOSTON --- Another late-inning comeback was a fitting ending to an incredible homestand by the Boston Red Sox.
Mv Vaughn drove in his third run of the game with a two-out single in the bottom of the 11th inning yesterday as the Red Sox came from behind for a 6-5 Patriots Day victory against the Cleveland Indians.
The win completed Boston's homestead at 9-1 and was the team's sixth victory in its last at-bat. Included were two extra-inning victories, three others in the bottom of the ninth and one on a go-ahead three-run homer in the eighth. During the stretch, the Red Sox hit 317, scored 55 runs and hit 16 homers.
"It certainly turned out to be an exciting homestand for us," said Jimy Williams, Boston manager.
With two out in the 11th inning, Jim Leyritz, who tied the game with a homer in the ninth, singled to left, and Damon Buford walked on four pitches against reliever Eric Plunk (1-1).
BOSTON
RED SOX
Vaughn, who weakly fouled off the first two pitches, then delivered his third hit of the game for the winning run.
The Indians threatened in the 10th inning, but Sandy Alomar, mired in a 2-for-34 slump, grounded out with runners at first and third and ended the inning.
A bigger concern for the Indians is the health of center fielder Kenny Lofton, who apparently caught a spike on the wet grass chasing Troy O'Leary's triple in the seventh. He has a strained left Achilles tendon and will undergo an MRI today, said manager Mike Hargrove.
Leyritz tied the score with a leadoff homer in the ninth, his fourth of the year.
The Indians had taken the lead in the seventh when David Justice, who homered earlier, broke a tie with an RBI double.
The Red Sox jumped in front
early against Cleveland starter Bartolo Colon. Darren Bragg, who had four hits on Sunday, hit a two-run homer in the second inning and then Vaughn added a 452-foot shot for his sixth homer of the season in the third for a 3-0 lead.
Manny Ramirez hit a two-run homer for the Indians in the fourth against Boston starter Butch Henry, making it 3-2. Then Vaughn delivered an RBI double in the fifth.
Trailing 4-2, the Indians rallied to grab the lead against Boston's bullpen. Justice homered off John Wasdin, cutting it to 4-3 in the sixth. Jim Thome's RBI single tied it in the seventh before Justice's run-scorring double off Steve Avery delivered Travis Fryman with the go-ahead run.
Henry, making his second start after opening the year on the DL with a strained left hamstring, left the game in the fifth with discomfort behind his left knee. He will undergo an MRI to look for possible cartilage or tendon damage, team physician Dr. Arthur Pappas said.

Don King has second round in court for charge of fraud
NEW YORK — Prosecutors had to team up with a vindictive former financial manager of Don King to dig up enough evidence to charge the boxing promoter with insurance fraud, King's lawyer said in an opening statement yesterday.
The Associated Press
Peter Fleming Jr. played an audio tape in federal court in Manhattan, N.Y., that contained the voice of the former chief financial officer, Joseph Maffia, cursing King in a May 1992 telephone call.
"I'm going to kick your ... ass," Maffia said in the call as King questioned who was calling.
Fleming turned the tape off, smiled slightly and told jurors sarcastically, "You're going to
love Maffia."
King: His trial for insurance fraud is under way.
He accused prosecutors of working to help Maffia achieve his threat against King. He said the government subpoenaed tens of thousands of documents in an antiterrorist
Fleming said prosecutors misunderstood the complicated sequence of events that led to the insurance claim and that left out key information to portray his client as a crook.
A. C. Riley
The problem, prosecutors said in their opening last week, was King's attempt to steal $350,000 from Lloyd's of London by faking a contract for a canceled 1991 bout between Julio Cesar
that revealed a problem 18 months later.
Fleming told the jury that King, charged with nine counts of wire fraud, was not the only defendant in the case. Also charged is his company, Don King Productions Inc.
Chavez and Harold Brazier.
"There are times in this country when our government has gone too far," he said.
The tall, silver-haired lawyer told the jury that he represented "Don King, the human being," then he patted him twice on the back.
Fleming said King rose from nothing to one of the most powerful positions in boxing.
"None of you can be against hard work and striving, and that is Don King," Fleming told iurors.
Fleming said representatives of Lloyds of London waited until a year ago to file a civil lawsuit to recover the money it lost. The suit was filed after prosecutors suggested it as a way to help the criminal case, he said.
Two years ago, a trial of King on the same charges ended with a hung jury. His company since has been added as a defendant.
William H. Murphy Jr., the lawyer for the company, told jurors that no crime was committed in the case.

Anaheim's Teemu Selanne and Washington's Peter Bondra tied for the goals title with 52, and Wayne Gretzky of the New York Rangers tied Jagr for the assists lead.

Boston, last overall last season, finished fifth in the Eastern Conference with a 2-1 victory against Philadelphia on Sunday.
The Associated Press
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — With a meaningless final month of the regular season out of the war, the New Jersey
the way, the New Jersey Devils must shift gears and get going again in the plavoffs.
But can they?
NHL
looked ordinary in the closing weeks. The team had a 3-5-2 record in its final 10 games and goaltender Martin Brodeur, who challenged Bernie Parent's single-season record for wins, was 1-5-1 in his last eight starts, which included one no decision.
Although the Devils clearly were the best team in the Eastern Conference this season, Jacques Lemaire's group
Not even a tight race with Dallas for the President's Trophy could get the Devils back on track.
The recent slump does not seem to concern the Devils, who will start a best-of-seven, first-round playoff series with the Ottawa Senators tomorrow night in New Jersey.
"We know we didn't finish the way we wanted to," center Denis Pederson said. "But it's done with."
The Senators could prove challenging. They have won six of nine games down the stretch, and they split four games with the Devils this season.
In the most recent game, Ottawa took a big step toward making the playoffs a second straight year by wiping out a 2-0 third-period deficit en route to a 3-2 win. It was only one of three times in 47 games New Jersey blew a lead after two periods.
"We know Ottawa won't be an easy team," Lemaire said. "They've been probably one of the top teams lately. Against us, they always play a tight game."
The Devilis and Senators combined for only 14 goals in four games. The wins by New Jersey came on shutouts by Brodeur three days apart in early February.
"They have a few players, and they have a good power play," Brodeur said. "We feel comfort to play these guys. They're a team with a system so you always have to play well against a team that's well organized. They're well coached. We have to make sure we're ready."
Alexei Yashin and Daniel Alfredsson are the two major scoring threats for Ottawa. Yashin, who had 33 goals this season, did not score in the four games against New Jersey but he had four assists. Alfredsson had a team-high two goals.
"They have played us tough all year," said Devils defenseman Lyle Odelein. "Yashin and Alfredsson can really change the complexion of a game."
The Senators have improved each of the past five seasons. Their 34-33-15 mark was their first winning record since coming into the league six years ago.
"We feel we can beat any team that we're playing right now," said Senators goalie Damian Rhodes, who played in all four games against New Jersey. "They're pretty stingy, and they have the experience. We just have to go in there and work hard."
Ottawa had a great final game Sunday night, taking 51 shots against Dominik Hasek and Steve Shields in a 2 win against Buffalo.
"We wanted to go out there and shoot the puck against Hasek," Alfredson said. "We're going to face Brodeur so we wanted to establish good forechecking."
Kenya gets eighth-straight victory
Boston Marathon reunites runner with his 1996 title
The Associated Press
BOSTON — With four miles left, Moses Tauui was so far behind the leaders he could not even see them.
With a relentless drive, Taniui kept surging, cutting into a quarter-mile deficit and finally catching the front-runners. Then, with a stunning kick past the final 200 meters, he gave Kenya an eight-straight Boston Marathon victory.
Regaining the title he won in Boston's centennial race in 1966, the
32-year old Tanui rallied from 48 seconds back with a powerful run, passing countryman Joseph Chebet.
"I was confident I could catch the leaders because they were running too fast," "Tanui said," "I caught them, and I still had energy."
The victory put the Kenyans within one of the record of nine straight victories by Americans from 1916 to 1925, when there were no Africans in the race. The 1918 race did not count because there was competition only among teams.
Tanui's time of 2 hours, 7 minutes and 34 seconds, was the third-fastest in the race its 102 year history, behind 1994 1-2 finishers Cosmas Nedeti of Kenya (2.07:15) and Andres Espinosa of Mexico (2.07:19).
It also was the fastest of Tanui's
career by more than one minute.
Cheetfin finished second at 2:07:37 and Gert Thys, trying to become the race's first South African champion, was third at 2:07:52, making it the closest three-man finish ever. Next was Andre Ramos of Brazil at 2:08:26 and John Kagwe of Kenya at 2:08:51, giving the Kenyans three of the top five.
Ethiopia's Fatuma Roba, the 1996 Olympic women's gold medalist, also produced her fastest time of her career, winning Boston for the second-straight year in 2:33:21. Only Uta Pippig of Germany, with 2:21:45 in 1994, and Joan Benoit Samulson, with 2:22:43 in 1983, ran faster.
The women's race was decided early, when Roba broke away from Colleen de Reuck of South Africa.
After the runners came off the uphills of Heartbreak Hill and charged down the hills, the course flattened out, and Tanui began making up ground rapidly. By mile 23, he had caught Chebet and Thys at the front.
The wily Tamal laid the fast early pace set by a group of 10 to 12 runners.
The tension was greater in the men's competition.
The women's world record of 2:20:47 was set Sunday by Kenya's Tegla Loroupe at Rotterdam.

The runner-up in Boston was Renata Paradowska of Poland at 2:17:15 and Anuta Catuna of Romania finished third at 2:27:32. They were followed by 1995 world champion Manuela Machado of Portugal at 2:29:13 and de Reuck at 2:29:43.

Pick up the papers and the trash

Kansas staff writer
The campus may look a little cleaner this week with University of Kansas students and staff rolling up their sleeves to help pick up litter.
The University's campus cleanup is taking place this week, and individual student and faculty groups are adopting a sidewalk and collecting litter and trash from designated areas.
"We borrowed the idea from adopt-a-highway and wanted to adapt it to the University level," said Victoria Silva, environmental specialist.
The campus was divided into eight sections, and eight individual groups agreed to help clean each section.
"We tried to focus on the main roads, like Jayhawk Boulevard and Sunnyside Avenue," Silva said. "Not all campus will be covered."
Groups that have committed to the cleanup will cover off and on-campus areas at various times throughout the week, she said. "It is still early in the week, so we are just waiting to set up times
Earth day
with groups," she said.
Members of the library staff will be cleaning around Watson Library at 10 a.m. today.
"I and other colleagues were concerned about the environment so we decided to help," said Rich Crank, library assistant. "We also think Earth Day is pretty cool."
Members of Daisy Hill residence halls will begin cleaning around the hall buildings and parking lots today and will continue cleaning until about 4 p.m. Friday.
"Each hall is in charge of their own cleanup," said Joanna Griffin, Wichita freshman and McColum Hall resident. "It is a way to let the residents get involved."
In addition to helping out during the week, many groups, such as the library staff, will try to clean their designated areas for the rest of the year.
"We are going to see how it goes," Crank said. "We like to participate in social kinds of things.
so we'll see."
Facilities operations and housekeeping are providing disposal bags for the groups to use during their cleanup sessions, said Phil
Garito, associate director of student housing.
Those interested in helping to clean up campus can contact Victoria Silva at 864-2855.

Kate Bornstein kicked off University of Kansas Pride Week when she spoke last night at the Big 12 Room in the Kansas Union. About 95 people attended her performance, which was followed by a question-and-answer session and book signing.
Bornstein's performance included dramatic monologues, slam poetry, personal experiences and an interactive lecture which explored gender roles, sexuality and societal perspectives that shape individuals in society.
Mike Bidwell, Manhattan freshman, said that Bornstein was fascinating and phenomenal.

"Do you remember junior high and the way you wanted to be popular and how you laughed at the freaks?" Bornstein said. "I'm here to enlist you to change the societal systems we made for ourselves when we weren't kids but weren't men or women either. This campus needs to stop treating each other like children and start to live in harmony. It might be the start of a better world."
Bornstein discussed the junior high childhood mentality that she said society used to view differences.
Catherine Preston, assistant professor of the theater and film, said that Bornstein's presentation was fitting.
Bornstein said that the University was unusually brave in asking her to speak on campus. She said that should make students wonder.

"I look at gender as something with a whole lot of possible answers," she said. "I hope that people got back in touch with the part of themselves that's kind tonight. If they got a little confused about gender, that would be great too."

Portable toilets to dot stadium during spring commencement
By Laura Roddy
lroddy@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
When more than 4,000 University of Kansas students participate in the May 17 Commencement ceremony, something out of the ordinary may catch their eyes: 170 portable toilets.
Memorial Stadium still is undergoing renovations, and although the commencement will proceed in the stadium as planned, there will not be running water or restrooms available for the estimated 30,000 people attending.
Rather than move the traditional ceremony to a new location, members of the University's commencement committee have leased 150 standard portable toilets and 20 accessible portable toilets around the stadium to accommodate the crowd.
"The average person who has never been to commencement may not notice anything different other than the construction and the toilets," said Jeff Weinberg, assistant to the chancellor and member of the commencement committee. "There will be a traditional KU commencement, despite the construction taking place in the stadium.
Julie DeWitt, Omaha, Neb., senior, said the stadium's construction would be an inconvenience but would not affect her guests too much.
"I'm glad they're still having it there," she said. "I don't think it would be the same."
Weinberg said that students and their guests might be seated in different locations. He said that the commencement committee would evaluate the construction's progress and that the location would not be determined until a week before commencement.
"At this point, the plan would be to place the students in the bowl and the guests on the west side," Weinberg said. "Anyone who needs special assistance will be seated on the track on the east side."
One elevator also will be operational, he said.
Jim Modig, director of design and construction management, said that renovations of the stadium's concourse level were scheduled to be completed by the first football game of the 1998 season on Sept. 5.
Those renovations include the addition of more restrooms and the replacement of the interior stairways for code compliance.
Those stairways, which lead to the openings in the stadium called vomitories, are torn out.
"What you'll see are new, modern facilities on the concourse level," he said.
The football team's annual spring game Saturday will be played at Haskell Stadium instead of at Memorial Stadium because of the renovations.
The Outhouse dances to a new tune as juice bar, strip club
By Tamara Miller
Kansan staff writer
Lawrence's latest nude "juice bar" has a couple of new ideas on the menu.
In the past, Wallace has had problems meeting the guidelines for a sexually oriented business. His previous business ventures, Squeezers and NiteOwlc Cood Naked Nightclub, were closed because the landlord did not approve. Wallace also owned Juicers, 913 N. Second St., but sold the business in 1993 because he could not afford to install lights which met city regulations or the required barricade between the stage and the audience floor.
"We're planning to use the fantasy booths this weekend for our grand opening," he said.
WILLOW CENTER
However, his newest business is outside city limits and therefore is outside city regulation, he said.
"The city tries to regulate these businesses out of business," he said.

The fantasy booth is divided into two rooms. The customer requests a dancer to perform in one room. The customer watches in the second room. The dancer cannot see the customer during the performance, Vannatta said.
"I think this one will definitely be a winner," he said.
Rose Vannatta, Outhouse bartender, said the fantasy booths made The Othouse different than other sexually oriented businesses in the area.

"Anything goes," she said. "It's a lot more risqué than other bars."

KU student reports rape after fraternity party
A University of Kansas student was raped April 11 in the 1200 block of Ohio Street, Lawrence police said yesterday.
The 18-year-old student was raped at 3 a.m. after going home with a 24-year-old male University student, said Sgt. George Wheeler.
Wheeler said the victim had gone to a fraternity party and had consumed alcohol before leaving with the man. Wheeler did not release which fraternity had conducted the party.
Wheeler said the victim later sought help at Watkins Health Center, and the staff contacted Lawrence police. The victim then was contacted by police, Wheeler said.
He said that the suspect and the victim had been interviewed by police but that the suspect had not been arrested.
"Basically, he said it was voluntary and she said it wasn't," Wheeler said. "There's going to be some dispute about it."
Lawrence man arrested in attempt to steal dog
A Lawrence man was arrested yesterday morning for breaking into a local pet shop and attempting to steal a dog, Lawrence police said.
Sgt. George Wheeler said the man, 27, was arrested at 2:10 a.m. near Scales And Tails Exotic Pets, 2201 W. 25th St., after police responded to a burglar alarm. The man did not have the stolen dog, a chocolate-colored miniature male Doberman pinscher, when he was arrested. Wheeler said.
"Police know that the dog was taken, but he was not recovered at the scene," Wheeler said.
Roy Engeldorf, owner of Scales And Tails, said the dog was found in a back
room of the store about 10:30 a.m.
"It looks like he tripped the burglar alarm and then panicked and dropped the dog." Engelford said. "We thought the dog had gotten out, but he hadn't."
Engelford said the suspect gained entry through the roof of the building. He said the suspect climbed to the roof using a ladder on the side of the building.
"He found an air duct and came in through a crawl space," Engelford said.
The dog did not have a name and was valued at $500, Engeldorf said.

Greek newsletter alters style to lift circulation
The greek newsletter GALE is starting to look like a newspaper.
The newsletter has expanded its publication from 450 copies to 1,500 copies and now is printed at the Lawrence Journal- world's press instead of at Kinko's Cooples
GALE is published each week. Twenty-five to 30 copies of the paper are distributed to each University fraternity and sorority, and 500 copies are sent nationwide to greek life offices, the national and international offices of greek organizations and to anyone else who requests the paper, said Lung Huang, Goodland junior and Interfraternity Council vice president for public relations.
Huang oversees the publication of GALF with Karen Isley, Sylvania, Ohio, junior and PANhellenic Association vice president for public relations.
"The Greek community wanted a greek newspaper." Huang said.
He said GALE, which stands for Greeks Achieving Leadership Excellence, was a good way to keep the greek community up to date on what was happening.
"When you have 4,000 people, it's tough to keep everyone on the same page." Huang said.
He said GALE was a good place to publish stories about events that were not

published in the University Daily Kansas. He said that readership had increased since GALE had changed its format. Readers take the paper more seriously in its new format. he said.
GALE has no advertising, so its entire budget comes out of Greek Programming, Huang said. He said that using the Journal World's press to print 1,500 copies cost $350 per month and was cheaper than having Kinko's print 450 copies.

NATION Defendants may question prejudiced jury selection
WASHINGTON — White defendants can challenge indictments against them based on alleged discrimination against African Americans in the selection of grand jury members, the Supreme Court said yesterday.
The unanimous ruling allows a Louisiana man convicted of murder to try to have the charges thrown out on his claim that African Americans were prevented from serving as grand jury foreman.
Murder defendant Terry Campbell, like any other white defendant, has standing to raise an equal-protection challenge to discrimination against African Americans in the selection of his grand jury, Justice Anthony M. Kennedy wrote for the court.
Campbell's lawyer, Dmitro Burns, said that although it already was clear that African-American defendants could raise a challenge that African Americans were unfairly excluded from a grand jury, it had not been certain whether white defendants could assert the same claim.
"Now, there's no question about it," he said.
In Louisiana, grand jury foremen are chosen by the judge, separate from the random selection of the other 11 grand jurors; therefore, the choice of the foreman affects the makeup of the panel.
Tennessee and Virginia — use similar procedures. In federal courts and other states that use grand juries, the foreman is chosen from the grand jury panel.
Four other states Ohio, Oklahoma.
WORLD Experienced crew crashes in Colombian mountains
BOGOTA, Colombia — The route was familiar, the crew was experienced. Why, even after being warned he was off course, did the pilot veer straight into a mountain face?
Investigators searched for clues yesterday on a ridge in Bogota's eastern mountain range, pocked with the wreckage of the Ecuador-bound Boeing 727 that crashed Monday, killing 53.
Air traffic controllers in Bogota radioed the passenger jet when it failed to turn 90 degrees southward at a radio beacon 2,000 feet from the runway's end.
Pilot Jaime Vasconez acknowledged the communication but nonetheless proceeded eastward for two miles, slamming into fog-shrouded El Cable mountain just 150 feet below its 10.170-foot summit.
Vasconez and his Ecuadorean crew of 10 flew the Quito-Bogota-Quioto route three times a week, officials said. They knew where the mountains were. So why not turn north or south to avoid the ridge?
"That is the very question that we are investigating. What happened?" Col. Julio Alberto Gonzalez, deputy director of the civil aviation authority, told The Associated Press. He refused to speculate about the cause but ruled out weather.
Climbing, Flight 422 hit the ridge at about 170 mph at 4:47 p.m., tearing most bodies into small, unidentifiable pieces strewn over a half-mile, along with thousands of pieces of wreckage. Only five corpses were found intact. Rescue workers estimated yesterday they had collected the remains of about 15 people.

Library plans improvements, seeks funding
By Jeremy M. Doherty idoherty@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
The Lawrence Public Library wants to gear up for the 21st century, and it will need more than $700,000 to do it.
Last night, the library's long-range planning committee presented its report at the Lawrence City Commission meeting. The committee outlined its new mission and vision statements and called for increased funding for technological and structural modifications during a five-year period beginning in 1999.
Bruce Flanders, director of the Lawrence Public Library, 707 Vermont St., said the library could provide intellectual and cultural services to the community in the coming years.
"By 2002, our community will look to the Lawrence Public Library as a primary and public gateway to the community's resources." Flanders said.
To accomplish that goal, the 36-page report requested more money from the city to develop Internet resources, to create a business and career reference service and to expand its fiction collection.
Some goals of the report, such as additional employee training and a revision of circulation policies, are slated for completion by mid- 1999, without funding.
Other items, such as the creation of a computer lab and an overhaul of the doorways and lighting systems, were marked for work in the next century and carried considerable price tags.
Included in the library's report was a request for $38,000 for the technology enhancements and $160,000 to renovate lights in its adult reading room. The library cited 39 prospective improvements in its report.
Commissioner Bob Moody questioned Flanders about the requests for funding increases.
"It looks like, with the annual and one-time costs, you're looking at a funding increase of $700,000 over the next five years." Moody said.
Flanders said that Moody's calculations were accurate.
The city commission had not requested the library's report, but Commissioner Erv Hodges said he was pleased to receive it before the city's budget sessions began in June.
"I sure appreciate getting it early," he said. "It looks like we've got a month to look at it." Lawrence Mayor Marty Kennady agreed.
"Generally, we only get about two days to look at these," he said.
Copies of the report are available to the public at the Lawrence Public Library.

Picketers base hatred on Bible
By John Blakely Wilson and Sara Anderson sanderson@kansan.com
Kansas staff writers
The Rev. Fred Phelps and protesters from the Westboro Baptist Church in Topeka picketed before the first event of Pride Week last night.
The event, "Cut'n' Paste," performed by transgendered actress Kate Bornstein, took place last night at the Big 12 Room in the Kansas Union. Bornstein's monologues explore gender roles and sexuality.
Protesters held signs with messages such as "Gay Hawks," "God Hates Fags" and "Fag U."
Phelps said the group objected to the performance because of the speaker's sexual orientation. He said the group would protest events all week.
"We heard there's a dyke over there and she's part of what they call gay pride week," Phelps said. "The sodomy agenda is not something that should be forwarded at taxpayer-funded universities."
Katie Shay, Leawood freshman and
Queers and Allies president, which is sponsoring the event, said that Phelps' presence was expected.
"Phelps will protest anything that gets him publicity, and we always expect him," she said. "He left early last year at the Brown Bag Lunch Drag, and it was weird because there was no sense of nastiness. It allowed us to actually enjoy ourselves. I'm all for free speech, but I don't find him any better than the KKK."
Josh Clark, Dallas senior, said he did not think that hatred was the way to express opinions.
"Whether you agree with it or not, the right way to go about it is not to come out here and demean somebody else," Clark said.
Shay said that Phelps' demonstrations helped contribute to the problem of homophobia in the community.
"It's horrible because people look at him and say that he is so homophobic, she said. "So when they look at themselves they say, 'I'm not like that, so I must not be homophobic,' and it allows people to get away with stuff. If queers spend all their time fighting him, then a lot of little stuff gets ignored."
Phelps said that although the lesbi-
gay-transgendered community was
becoming more accepted in society, his
demonstrations were valid, and he
quoted the Bible in justifying his
protests.
"But first he must endure much suffering and be rejected by his generation ... but on the day that Lot left Sodom, it rained fire and sulfur form heaven and destroyed all of them. It will be like that on the day that the Son of Man is revealed," he said.
"It's disgusting," she said. "Nobody is protecting against him, but he hates people. I don't think God would have created something he hates. It makes me sick because you can disagree with homosexuality, but no one should hate like that."
Melissa Lynch. Naperville, Ill., freshman, said she thought the protesters were revolting.
Shay said that something positive could come out of Phelps' visit to the University.
"It gets the queer community and Q&A to join together in an effort to battle the hatred," she said. "But I think him not being there would be more positive."
For Phelps, doom with a view
By John Blakely Wilson Kanson staff writer
I spoke with Rev. Fred Phelps after he delivered a sermon on a cold Sunday morning in March. He shared the reasoning behind his protests and his belief that Armageddon was imminent. Our conversation was part of a longer interview for a feature article on Phelps' dealings with the mass media.
Burnt-orange carpet and plastic-coated plywood walls lined the small rooms of the Westboro Baptist Church, part of Rev. Fred Phelps' compound in Topeka.
A pole-thin, snowy-haired grandfather figure descended from the pulpit. His ice-blue eyes and commanding masculine voice pierced the room.
"Whoremonger, that's a good Bible word," Phelps said. "I remember a great metaphor for whoring against God in the Bible — sows eating their own feces. That's exactly what all these sodomites are doing."
A Conversation with Fred Phelps Wilson: Why do you do the things you
do? Why do you hate?
Phelps: How can I sit here quiet with two dykes being married in this country? God's side is totally omitted from the discussion of fags, and that is totally unethical. I am determined to have God's side in there, possibly with picket sigms.
Wilson: What is God's side?
Phelps: What I'm preaching to fags is that God hates you like a loathsome spider. We are living in the days of the apostasy, and these sodomites are signs that the end of the world is coming.
Wilson: What is your job, as a Baptist preacher, in the world of today?
**Phelps:** My job is to be a watchman on a tower, the ambassador of Jesus Christ. Old Baptist preachers laid hands on my head and swore me to do God's work. Isaiah 58:1 is my job description: "Cry loud, spare not." Through newspapers, television and radio, I can preach all over the world for virtually no money. I am able from this little humble place to impact the national scene — that is preaching
Wilson: Do you ever come home at night after berating other human beings and feel regret for your actions?
today; that is the way you wage this war.
Phelps: I think about it. 1 Timothy 2:24 says be gentle, and I often wonder whether I am being gentle enough. After soul searching, I always come down on the side that I did the right thing. I deliver the judgment of God, it must be crystal clear that it is wrong. Some say I shouldn't preach at funerals, but God says preaching must occur in season and out of season. Those are watershed times when people are making life decisions, and I want to be there
Wilson: Do you ever get the sense that you've lost the battle, that you are a dinosaur arguing with God's word against homosexuals?
Phelps: How can I lose? The Lord says in Luke 17:28 that the worse the world gets, the closer we are to Armageddon. With the sodomite agenda coming to the forefront, the end of the world is coming, and that's OK with me.
KU committees gear up for 2001
By Gerry Dayle
gdayle@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
After five months of work, the University of Kansas has established a definite direction for its initiatives of the next century.
The Initiative 2001 program, started by Chancellor Robert Hemenway, is geared toward improving the educational experience for students and faculty at the University, said Don Steeples, chairman of the Serve Kansans committee.
The program, which began in October, consists of three separate committees: Serve Kansans, Building Premier Learning Institutions and Act as One University.
The University now has recommendations about how to accomplish all of those things.
The Serve Kansans committee recommended this month that the University pursue several options to help the state community, ranging from having a clear philosophical statement of goals to establishing gauges for the University's progress.
Some of the committees recommendations could be accomplished easily, Steeples said, but others might require more work.
The goal was not to work simply for the University's benefit, he said.
"Our aim was not necessarily to help the University, but to help the larger community," he said. "Some of these things can be done simply by rearranging priorities a little bit. Others require more time or rearranging money and people. We just have the feeling that if we can help the people of Kansas, we can help the University."
Diana Carlin, head of the Building Premier Learning Institutions committee, said that her committee's recommendations were intended to be guidelines for the Chancellor's decision. Carlin said that the committee talked with groups across the University and that it incorporated their viewpoints into its findings.
She said that her committee was concerned with improving the University with diversity and achieving educational balance.
"How do you make the University a better place?" she said. "I think the real advantage is that it's already started. We got people from all across the University sat down with them and started talking. From that, we generated ideas."
The third task force, Act as One University, is aimed at bringing the all University campuses in sync. The committee recommended the University do this by developing the idea of the University as a community and by knocking down barriers to sharing academic resources.
Mike Walden, student body vice president and member of the Building Premier Learning Institutions committee, said that students ultimately would benefit from the Initiative 2001 program.
Walden said that while no concrete action would be taken immediately, the results would be good in the end.
"As far as I know, the Chancellor is just looking at these," Walden said. "We deliberated for a long time, broke up into different groups. We want to enhance the educational experience of the faculty. I think the propositions we came up with are very student-friendly."

Environmental activism needed on Earth Day, during rest of year
For nearly 30 years, April 22 has been a day for environmental education from the grass roots. Sen. Gaylord Nelson wanted Earth Day, which started in 1970, to be a teach in. Today offer ample opportunities for environmental education and should be observed with active participation by all.
Jason Daniels, member of KU Environments, suggested that students observe Earth Day by attending one of the numerous events or lectures. Daniels recommended a lecture by Doug Peacock, who is an author, filmmaker and environmentalist. Peacock, an expert on grizzly bears, will discuss conservation and his book, "Walking it Off," at 7 p.m. tonight at the Ballroom in the Kansas Union.
Students should get involved in campus environmental groups and activities
More proactive options are available too. Various clean-up programs continue until the end of the week. The Latter-Day Saints Student Association will be cleaning up the Kaw River while various campus groups are planning a campus-wide cleanup. Beginning April 27, everyone in Lawrence will be encouraged to park their cars and use alternate modes of transportation such as walking or biking.
In addition to KU Environs, the University of Kansas has several other environmentally-based groups. Those organizations include the Environmental Law Society, the Environmental Studies Student Association and Students for Wild Care.
Extensive opportunities to get involved are available today and throughout the year. Students should participate in Earth Day events and show that they care about the environment. But efforts and interest should not be limited to organized activities only on Earth Day. Conservation should be a part of daily life by making the decision to take a proactive interest in the environment.

Parking garage needs student spaces
Anyone who drives a car to campus knows first hand about the difficulties of finding a parking space. Design and Construction Management is planning to improve existing lots and build a few more lots, but the main parking-improvement project, the new parking garage, will be an expensive undertaking with no guaranteed spots for student parking.
The Parking Department should use this new parking garage to give students, not just faculty and staff, more parking spaces.
Construction of the multi-story parking garage, which will be north of the Kansas Union, will begin in November or December and will be completed by the summer of 2000, said James Modig. Design and Construction Management director. The $10 million structure will have about 1,000 new parking spaces. Unfortunately, no one will say how many of those spaces will be reserved for student parking.
Donald Kearns, Parking Department director, said that the new parking garage will provide spaces for students, faculty and staff. However, he would not comment on the actual number of spaces allotted for students. But students have a right to know how their money is being spent.
ing lot will be built this summer. Lots by Oliver Hall will be improved this summer. This will increase the number of stalls, improve the pavement, and get better traffic circulation. Next summer, the same thing will be done to the lot across from Lewis Hall. There are also plans to demolish the Jayhawker Towers parking garage and put down more surface lots to the south, which will provide a slight increase in parking spaces.
Other efforts to improve parking are planned. For example, parking lots will be built on the site of the old Blake Annex, providing 20 new spots. For visitors and prospective students, a Visitors Center with a park-
Although a commendable effort, this is not enough to alleviate student parking problems. Students require and deserve to have a majority of the spaces in the new garage. Serving faculty and staff is fine, but we, the students, pay the bills. It is our university and our money.

Secretaries brighten lives with good acts
Perspective
Mother Theresa once said: "We cannot do big things. We can do only small things with great love." Even though I disagree with Mother Teresa
because I believe we can do many big things, I do agree with her that we can do a lot of apparently small things with great love, and make a big difference in the world. One person doing such seemingly small things with great love at the University of Kansas is Sarah Seay, the receptionist in the Department of French and Italian.
Because this week is Professional Secretaries
Donato
Fhunsu
opinion@kansan.com
Week, and today is Professional Secretaries Day. I thought it would be appropriate to dedicate this, my last column of the semester, to Sarah, and, through her, to all the professional secretaries and people doing secretarial work on our campus. Working behind the scene, these sisters and brothers make our university run efficiently. Without them, our work, whether we are teachers or students, would be seriously handicapped. On them rests the hope of our University for smooth functioning.
Throughout human history, many thinkers have paid tribute to these humble-hearted people. Jesus, for instance, knowing the value of these simple spirits in our world, said "Blessed are the poor in Spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven" (Matthew 5:3). And Mother Teresa surrounded herself with many of these behind-the-scene workers.
What makes Sarah particularly special is that she is my quiet writing coach. Writing, when done a certain way, can be a very lonely and demanding endeavor. When you really get into the swing of things, you fall in love with words. You think about words during the day, you dream about words at night, and often you have to get up in the middle of the night to capture them in the computer before they escape and return to torment you again.
Last semester I was discouraged and tired
of the sleepless nights of the writing life. I decided that I was going to stop writing, so that I could have a normal life. Normal? One day I went to work and, as usual, the first person I saw was Sarah. She told me that she always read The University Daily Kansan and that one of the articles I had written several weeks before had comforted her. She had been checking the opinion page ever since to see if there was another article of mine that would bring peace to her heart. When I heard this, tears rushed to my eyes.
"You read my articles?" I asked.
"Yes, I do," she answered. "I look forward to reading them every day as I come to work. Please keep on writing. Many of us need to read what you write."
I sighed as I thought about the strange ways life speaks to us. I told her that if she would pray every day that God would give me the strength to stand all the tribulations of the writing life, then I would do my best to continue to think and write. And on those days when inspiration strikes like lightening, I would joyfully forgo food and sleep and peace because I would know that my humble contribution is needed.
Professor David Dinneen, Sarah's boss and a very tough critic of how things are done in the world in general and at the University in particular, usually complains that Sarah is too sweet, too good. That is a good sign. This means that Sarah's sweetness and goodness show and are apparent even to the toughest critics.
When it comes to sweetness and goodness, I don't think there is such a thing as too much. On the contrary, it seems to me that given the present state of the world, there is not enough sweetness and goodness to go around. I believe that, in our generation, humanity is so wounded that we can use more of the healing fragrance that exudes from Sarah's heart as she sits down every morning to do her work in the department of French and Italian.
Happy Professional Secretaries Day and thank you from the bottom of my heart.

AIDS finally understood after death of loved one
My Uncle Bill died of causes related to HIV in June 1990. He was 33. Family and friends mourned his death. But no one dared to speak about
A
AIDS. Most everyone at the funeral knew he was gay and believed that only homosexuals could contract the virus.
I was one of those people, then a naive 14-year-old soon to be a high school sophomore. I had heard many of the AIDS jokes and rumors. So when I walked past my uncle's frail body one last time, I trembled before deciding not to
Tommy Gallagher opinion@kansan.com
touch him. I would never admit to it then, but I feared that I would contract AIDS with one simple touch.
I learned about AIDS during health class the next year. But I regretted that I didn't know more when Uncle Bill died.
Remember the AIDS myths of the 1980s?
Remember the AIDS myths of the 1960s:
One time I caught my sister drinking milk straight out of the carton. She offered me a sip but I refused. She then turned to me and said, "It's all right. It's not as if I have AIDS."
I had that swig of milk after all.
I remember the time I overheard a couple of teachers talking about Ryan White during recess. They marveled at the courage he possessed, but neither said she would feel comfortable about the food, bathrooms,
water fountains or anything else while in the company of someone who had AIDS.
And I remember when some friends asked me whether I had a crush on any girl in our class. Truth was that I had an immense crush on one girl, but I feared that I would be embarrassed by notes and rumors if I admitted my feelings. So I denied having any crushes. The response from my friends was. "What are you, gay? Do you have AIDS?"
Who was I to challenge what my teachers said?
AIDS could be spread by a gay person anywhere and anytime. At least that was the conclusion that friends, family and teachers led me to believe.
That was why I could not bear to touch Uncle Bill, whose delicate 70-pound frame had replaced the 175-pound body he formerly owned. I had heard all the rumors that surrounded AIDS, and I believed most of them. So I remained uneducated and ignorant about the facts until well after his death.
Fear of the unknown can be contagious, but the spread of the HIV virus and AIDS can be prevented by knowing the facts.
I may never forgive myself for the depth of my shallowness at Uncle Bill's funeral. Even today I talk to him, begging forgiveness for my actions and explaining that I just didn't know any better.
But now I do.

Feedback
Student Senate has some power
Although I was quite impressed with Jonathan Huskey's obvious ability to use his thesaurus in his column "Coalitions look similar when masks are removed", the point he was arguing was less impressive.
He admitted as much when he stated that his "opinion may be a case of my cynical ignorance," but I fear that what he wrote may fester into students' beliefs. Owing to the work of activist students in
the late 1960s and early 1970s the Student Senate is endowed with a relatively large amount of power in the University Governance system. This power, of course, pales compared to that of the faculty or the administration, but it is there and it is real. After all, there is a reason this newspaper devoted so much space to the elections this semester; this stuff is important.
To Huskey's snickering at the Delta Force T-shirts that he claimed read "Defeating the Dominant Paradigm" (they actually read "Subverting the Dominant Paradigm"
— I know this is nit picking, but fact-checking is essential in a good reporter, and he should have checked his facts). I'm sorry that he has such a limited sense of irony.
And, finally, to the letter to the editor printed on the same page where Ryan Zimmerman said that instead of harassing students, candidates should have set up web pages. Well, Zimmerman, you should have looked for them — both coalitions did construct fine Web pages.

Environmental activism needed on Earth Day, during rest of year
For nearly 30 years, April 22 has been a day for environmental education from the grass roots. Sen. Gaylord Nelson wanted Earth Day, which started in 1970, to be a teach in. Today offers ample opportunities for environmental education and should be observed with active participation by all.
Jason Daniels, member of KU Environs, suggested that students observe Earth Day by attending one of the numerous events or lectures. Daniels recommended a lecture by Doug Peacock, who is an author, filmmaker and environmentalist. Peacock, an expert on grizzly bears, will discuss conservation and his book, "Walking it Off," at 7 p.m. tonight at the Ballroom in the Kansas Union.
Students should get involved in campus environmental groups and activities
More proactive options are available too. Various clean-up programs continue until the end of the week. The Latter-Day Saints Student Association will be cleaning up the Kaw River while various campus groups are planning a campus-wide cleanup. Beginning April 27, everyone in Lawrence will be encouraged to park their cars and use alternate modes of transportation such as walking or biking.
In addition to KU Environs, the University of Kansas has several other environmentally-based groups. Those organizations include the Environmental Law Society, the Environmental Studies Student Association and Students for Wild Care.
Extensive opportunities to get involved are available today and throughout the year. Students should participate in Earth Day events and show that they care about the environment. But efforts and interest should not be limited to organized activities only on Earth Day. Conservation should be a part of daily life by making the decision to take a proactive interest in the environment.

Parking garage needs student spaces
Anyone who drives a car to campus knows first hand about the difficulties of finding a parking space. Design and Construction Management is planning to improve existing lots and build a few more lots, but the main parking-improvement project, the new parking garage, will be an expensive undertaking with no guaranteed spots for student parking.
The Parking Department should use this new parking garage to give students, not just faculty and staff, more parking spaces.
Construction of the multi-story parking garage, which will be north of the Kansas Union, will begin in November or December and will be completed by the summer of 2000, said James Modig, Design and Construction Management director. The $10 million structure will have about 1,000 new parking spaces. Unfortunately, no one will say how many of those spaces will be reserved for student parking.
Donald Kearns, Parking Department director, said that the new parking garage will provide spaces for students, faculty and staff. However, he would not comment on the actual number of spaces allotted for students. But students have a right to know how their money is being spent.
ing lot will be built this summer. Lots by Oliver Hall will be improved this summer. This will increase the number of stalls, improve the pavement, and get better traffic circulation. Next summer, the same thing will be done to the lot across from Lewis Hall. There also are plans to demolish the Jayhawker Towers parking garage and put down more surface lots to the south, which will provide a slight increase in parking spaces.
Other efforts to improve parking are planned. For example, parking lots will be built on the site of the old Blake Annex, providing 20 new spots. For visitors and prospective students, a Visitors' Center with a park-
Although a commendable effort, this is not enough to alleviate student parking problems. Students require and deserve to have a majority of the spaces in the new garage. Serving faculty and staff is fine, but we, the students, pay the bills. It is our university and our money.

Democrat to run for Congress
Attorney Moore to battle current Rep. Snowbarger in fall election
By Brandon Capple bcopple@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Seeking the support of the moderate majority with which he said Congress was out of touch, Johnson County attorney Dennis Moore announced his candidacy for Congress yesterday morning in a Lawrence High School classroom.
"No political party has a monopoly on good ideas," he said. "I believe we need a congressman who will represent the moderate majority of Democrats, Republicans and independents in this district."
Moore, a former Johnson County district attorney and a graduate of the University of Kansas, spoke to about 15 area residents and 22 students in an advanced-placement American Government class.
Moore will face 3rd District Congressman Vince Snowbarger,
a Republican, in the fall election.
a Republican, in the late election. He told the audience that he was an abortion-rights advocate, tough on crime, a fiscal conservative and willing to work to maximize accessibility to higher education.
"We are almost to the point today where people have to look at education beyond college," he said. "If young people want an opportunity to look beyond college, it think they should have it."
"No political party has a monopoly on good ideas.I believe we need a congressman who will represent the moderate majority of Democrats, Republicans and independents in this district."
PETER MCKINNEY
Moore repeatedly said that the majority of voters in the 3rd District were political moderates, were fed up with partisan politics and did not agree with Snowbarger's conservative agenda.
Johnson County attorney and Congressional candidate
Moore said that running as a moderate and appealing to voters across party lines was necessary for a Democrat in Kansas.
"If I were running only as a Democrat in this election and expecting to be elected because I'm a Democrat, I would lose," he said.
Voter registration records indicate that 41 percent of registered 3rd District voters are Republicans. Only 28 percent of registered voters are Democrats. In Johnson County, where voters elected Moore to three terms as district attorney, Republicans make up nearly one-half of registered voters and Democrats only one-fifth
Dennis Moore
Jack Martin, Abilene sophomore and member of KU Young Democrats, attended Moore's announcement. He said that KU Young Democrats would provide volunteer support in Moore's campaign.
"Dennis has a real good shot and a real good message," Martin said.
Moore served as Johnson County district attorney for 13 years, beginning in 1977. After leaving that office, he returned to private law practice in Olathe where he continues to work in criminal defense law.
Moore, considered one of the top criminal defense attorneys in
the state, has been hired to represent Matthew Vestal, the Englewood, Colo., freshman involved in the March 31 accident that fatally injured Overland Park freshman Lisa Rosel.
Lawrence law enforcement officials still are investigating the incident and have not charged Vestal with a crime.
Christine Tonkovich, Douglas County District Attorney, said she would not anticipate Moore's candidacy having any effect on the matter.
"As an attorney, when you're handling any kind of a case, it has to take precedence over a political campaign," she said. "I'm sure Dennis wouldn't allow it to interfere at all."

Peacock shows plumage in life book, film and grizzly study
By Graham K. Johnson gjohnson@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
Doug Peacock is bringing his war to the University of Kansas.
Peacock, author, filmmaker and environmentalist, will speak at 7 a.m. in the Kansas Union ballroom about his war to protect wildlife, particularly the grizzly bear. The speech, "Where grizzlies and bison once roamed," is the centerpiece of Earth Day activities. KU Environ, other campus organizations, the biology and English departments and area business are sponsoring the speech.
Jason Daniels, Colby junior and KU Environs co-coordinator, said Peacock's lecture should appeal to everyone from committed environmental activists to those only interested in grizzly bears.
"With his experiences, he can give everyone an idea of what grizzly bears are like in their natural habitat," Daniels said.
Peacock, a former Green Beret, has spent 20 years in the wilderness tracking grizzly bears, Daniels said.
Peacock wrote "The Grizzly Years—In Search of the American Wilderness," a cult classic within the environmental movement. He also filmed a documentary called Peacock's War.
Andrea Repinsky, Olathe junior and KU Enviros co-coordinator, said Peacock's unique study of wildlife and his battles on the front lines of the environmental movement had made him famous among fellow activists
"He's a legend within the environmental community," Repinsky said.
But that should not scare away people who are less involved. Daniels said.
"It's important for everyone who's been to a wildlife park and never gotten out of the car to hear the lecture because he's been into the back lands and can tell you what it's like." Daniels said.
Denise Woods, El Dorado junior and a member of Students for Wildcare, said she was going to the lecture to learn more about Peacock.
"I've heard he's pretty inspirational." Woods said. "I'm going to see what he's all about."
Daniels said there would be a reception and Peacock would sign books following the lecture.
SUA plants Earth Day awareness
Today's activities tie global concern to local action
By Marcelo Vilela
mvilela@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Student Union Activities will celebrate Earth Day today with a speaker and an open house.
All activities are free and will take place in front of the Kansas Union. If it rains, activities will be moved to the Union lobby. SUA will offer free lemonade.
Charles Benjamin, legislative coordinator for the Kansas Natural Resources Council and the Kansas Sierra Club, will speak from noon to 1 p.m. Benjamin will talk about how
students can think globally and act locally.
"I'll talk about what I see going on around the state and in legislation," Benjamin said. "Legislators have a lot of pressure to keep environmental legislation to a minimum, but people can improve their environment. You should have a concern about global warming, but there are things happening in Kansas everyday that affect the food we eat and the water we drink."
In addition to Benjamin's speech, SUA will have a station for making hemp necklaces and bracelets and a planting station where students can plant wildflowers and prairie grass.
An exhibition of recycled art also will be in front of the Union. Students will select the best entry by ballot, and the winner will receive a cash prize.
"I don't know what it's going to look like," said Kielyn Scott, Wichita
junior and SUA special events coordinator, "but in my imagination, I expect something like aluminum cans and used paper recycled into art."
An acoustic guitar jam session will set the tone to the activities from 10 a.m. to noon and from to 1 to 2 p.m. John Orcutt, Hutchinson senior and SUA live music coordinator, said SUA always had music on Earth Day, but this year the music would be acoustic instead of amplified.
At 11 a.m., students and SUA staff will plant flowers in a flower bed outside the Kansas Union.
Student groups such as KU Environs, All About Hemp, Sierra Club, Biology Club, Amnesty International and Habitat for Humanity will set up information tables at the plaza.
"It's a unique event because lots of student groups are involved," Scott said. "We're hoping for a big turnout." SUA has been collecting aluminum

Partisan debate quieted, not silenced
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The shrill partisan rhetoric disputing environmental regulations, a hallmark of the Republican revolution three years ago, no longer echoes on Capitol Hill. There are no more calls to strip the Environmental Protection Agency of its power or to gut the Endangered Species Act to protect landowners.
But the abandonment of frontal assaults on environmental regulations does not mean congressional Republicans are ready to embrace President Clinton's top environmental priorities.
From a package of tax cuts and incentives to address global warming to new efforts to clean up the nation's waterways and purchase new parkland, the Clinton environmental agenda is being blocked at every turn on Capitol Hill.
Marking Earth Day today, Clinton plans to highlight his frustration with Congress about that agenda during a visit to the Appalachian trail.
maintain the disputes simply involve disagreements about spending priorities as well as serious doubts voiced by both Republican and Democratic lawmakers about the global warming agreement the administration agreed to last December in Kyoto, Japan.
Republican congressional leaders
The president's five-year, $6.3 billion package of incentives to promote energy efficiency and give tax breaks for more fuel efficient cars and buildings, an early effort to address global warming, is all but dead.
Examples of the disagreements:
A highly touted clean water initiative to address agricultural runoff into lakes has been blocked for lack of money. A proposed $568 million never made it into the Senate budget and faces trouble in the House.
More than $300 million approved last year for nearly 100 purchases of federal land for parks and refuges is in limbo concerning a disagreement about how the money should be spent.
- Another $650 million, earmarked by the EPA to speed Superfund site
cleanups also is not being financed. Lawmakers are refusing to reinstate a Superfund tax until the controversial law is revamped.
"Congress has learned to be more surreptitious," said Rodger Schilkeiseisen, president of Defenders of Wildlife. "There's not as much chest beating. Now, they're being much more cautious in their approach. But there's still an anti-environment agenda."
The administration projects a similar view. "This is a stealthier Congress, but it's plain they have the same agenda," said Wesley Warren, the White House Council on Environmental Quality's deputy chief of staff.
Congressional Republicans, both moderates and conservatives, scoff at such criticism.
"Sure there's still an anti-environmental agenda, but it's essentially a handful of people who shout the loudest," said Sherwool Boehlert, R-N.Y., a moderate supported by most environmental leaders.
"There's no doubt in my mind there's
a heightened sensitivity to environmental issues," continued Boehler. He blames the administration for not pushing some environmental issues, such as Superfund reform, more aggressively.
Ralph Regula, R-Ohio, chairman of the appropriations subcommittee that deals with public lands issues, contends the administration wants to spend too much money on new land purchases at the expense of dealing with a backlog of repairs.
"They've sent up their wish list," Regula said. "But you've got to take care of what you have."
"This Congress is not anti-environmental," insisted Rep. Jerry Lewis, R-Calif., whose appropriations subcommittee deals with the EPA's budget.
For example, he says, the clean-water plan would require states for the first time to require pollution permits for large hog and cattle feedlots. Approval of the administration's $568 million request for the clean-water program is uncertain, even though much of that money would go to states. Lewis says.

Monumental errors to be corrected
University's Vietnam Memorial will be rededicated Saturday
By Gerry Doyle gdoyle@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
LEST WE FORGET THE
COURAGE HONOR AND SACrifice
OF OUR FELLOW STUDENTS
Thirty years after the fact, two former University of Kansas students are getting recognized for their sacrifices.
Retired Army Col. Fred Green, a 1963 KU graduate, visited the KU Vietnam Memorial wall in 1994 and noticed the entries for two of his fellow students were incorrect.
The identifications of two former students are incorrect on the University's Vietnam Memorial. It will be rededicated Saturday and will include the omitted name of one former student killed in the war, and one who had been misidentified as Missing In Action. Photo by Holly Groshang/KANSAN
Lloyd Meredith Wilson, who was killed when his aircraft was shot down in Vietnam in 1968, was not listed at all. The other man, Larry E. Martin, was listed as Missing in Action, but Green knew his remains had been identified in 1989.
Jeff Weinberg, assistant to the chancellor, said the memorial was being modified and would be rededicated Saturday.
The 20-minute ceremony will help undo thirty years of misunderstanding, Weinberg said.
"It's not something we ever anticipated doing," he said. "The Department of Defense had listed the state of residence as Texas rather than Kansas. As careful as the University was, it's understandable that a name could be omitted. Also, there
have been significant changes in forensics since then. We do know now that MIA was correct when the monument was built."
The monument was erected in 1988 through efforts of the student body, Weinberg said. It cost $4,000 when built. The money to finance construction was donated by students and veterans' groups.
Green said that he was surprised when he saw the incorrect listings on the monument. He said that although the corrections were coming late, they were worth it.
"I walked around and looked, and it jumped out at me," he said. "It's not there. It's nice to get this done."
Changing the memorial was the right thing to do, said Brian Wehrv,
    who has died.
El Dorado senior. The corrections needed to be made, he said, or the monument would be incomplete.
Wehry said that the meaning of the monument would be lessened by its inconsistency.
"Yeah, I think they need to do it." he said. "It's a good thing. A memorial left undone isn't much of a memorial, is it?"
The ceremony will begin at 9 a.m. Saturday with the presentation of the colors by the KU ROTC department, Weinberg said. Chancellor Robert Hemenway will speak, and Retired U.S. Air Force Gen. Charles G. Boyd — who received the Distinguished Service Citation from the University in 1997 — also will make a presentation.

Last year Scott Sullivan, student body president, listed what he wanted to accomplish. As Sullivan prepares to step down tonight, it is with the knowledge that he has not accomplished all that he said he would.
Sullivan is proud of the things that his administration has achieved this semester, but he said that because of political division in Senate, some goals went unobtained.
Tonight marks the changing of the guard in Student Senate as this year's senators make way for their successors at the joint senate meeting. The meeting will be at 6:30 p.m. at the Alderson Auditorium in the Kansas Union.
Senate leaders prepare to relinquish their reigns
Kelly Huffman, Student Executive Committee chairman, agreed that the administration's perception hurt Senate's effectiveness.
Without a Senate united in efforts to pass legislation, it was difficult to get the administration's respect, he said.
"A lot of the things we worked on this year were things we didn't have complete control over." Huffman said. "If the administration sees the dissension, then when you come to them with your
ideas, they're less likely to take them seriously. They ask 'Why should we listen to you if only 51 percent of your group is behind this?'
Last year, as student body presidential candidate for the Unite coalition, Sullivan's top campaign priority was to convince the University to release faculty evaluations.
Faculty evaluations have not been released. However, a course content guide has been implemented. Professors voluntarily can place their class syllabi or other class information in the guide.
Other Unite platform issues included implementing a coordinated bus system with the city of Lawrence, instituting an ethical choice policy that would not punish students for objecting to class assignments and campus and community outreach.
There were attempts to reach out to the University community. One way has been the Senate list-serv, a forum for student-senator discussion.
Matt Bachand, off campus senator, said one of the main reasons for Senate problems was the
resistance from old senators to expand the boundaries of what Senate was capable of doing.
"We were challenging the old views and saying that there"s more for Senate to do than allocate money," Bachand said.
Bachand said Sullivan and Mike Walden, outgoing vice president, had not fulfilled their campaign promises because they failed to be leaders for the student senators.
"They came in touting their experience, but they failed to use that to unite Senate," he said. "Sullivan should have been constantly pushing an agenda with Senate, but he just left it alone and did his own thing. It was almost like there were two separate administrations — the executive staff and Senate."
Kevin Yoder and Scott Kaiser will take the reins as student body president and vice president and will pick up the fight to make Senate less of a politically divided organization.
Kaiser agreed that the biggest problem in this year's Senate was the coalition ties.
"The best ideas in the world go unrealized when you don't have an environment where people cooperate," Kaiser said. "If they think they are still part of their coalition then they are the ones that are going to be at fault for paralyzing Senate."

Flaming Lips ditch instruments for boom boxes
Band will supply stereos at concert
By Chris Horton chorton@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
Live music does not get any more post-modern than this.
At 9 tonight, The Oklahoma City band The Flaming Lips will bring its boom box orchestra to The Bottleneck, 737 New Hampshire.
The band will leave its instruments at home and instead supply 50 portable stereos to audience members who will play cassettes, which will feature a variety of music and sounds. The end effect will be an amalgamation of sound greater than the sum of its parts, said Wayne Coyne, lead singer and guitarist.
Coyne, along with bandmates Michael Ivins and Steven Drozz.
"We'll hand out tapes to people from the crowd, and once we get going, we'll have a series of compositions that get more and more complicated." Coyne said.
has been experimenting with playback of prerecorded sounds during the past two years.
"It was a small idea to try to make small pieces of music into a bigger piece," Coyne said.
The experiment originally was conducted with the use of four car stereos in an Oklahoma City parking lot.
Coyne said he got excited and tried the concept with 50 cars.
"It was there that we heard the pieces combine for the first time," he said.
He said that the 50-car experiment was a learning experience that prepared him for the next direction he would take with the idea.
a hassle."
The Flaming Lips released Zaireka, a four CD album, to critical acclaim last October on Warner Brothers Records. The album required that all four discs be played at the same time, which meant that it took four stereos to listen to one album.
The sounds in tonight's performance will include music recorded by the band, insect noises and whatever else makes its way onto Coyne's four-track tape recorder, he said.
"It is a little bit of an event. It takes some getting together to do it," Coyne said, "But it shouldn't limit us just because you need it
"I'm going to mow my lawn this afternoon — I'll be recording that," Coyne said.
"I hope people come not expecting a rock concert. It isn't that sort of trip." Coyne said.
He said it was important to have an open mind to enjoy the band's musical experiment.

Historians get hooks into revised image of pirates
Thieves of the sea raised the flag high for democratic life
The Associated Press
CARACAS, Venezuela — In the lore of Jolly Roger movies, Disneyland and Long John Silver, pirates were drunken, peg-legged bandits who made captives walk the plank and eat their own ears.
chance to live free.
Now, historians are taking a second look at the seafaring thieves and learning many were not as brutal as people think.
To be sure, pirates were not generally nice guys. But at a time of tyranny in most countries, they elected their own captains, divided up their booty fairly, offered an early version of worker's compensation and gave Black slaves a rare
"There was this extraordinary democracy among pirates," said David Cordingly, author of "Under the Black Flag: The Romance and the Reality of Life Among The Pirates." The book is one of several offering a revisionist view of pirates.
Artifacts such as rare African jewelry that was hacked apart to be shared equally seem to indicate a certain sense of fairness among pirates. New information is coming from the discovery of sunken pirate ships and research into court documents, government correspondence and statements by victims of pirate violence.
new research has revealed that pirates voted on most major decisions, such as whether to attack another vessel or where to sail next.
Despite the revisionist movement, historians say buccaneers should not be romanticized. A
favorite torture method was tightening a leather cord around a captive's forehead until his eyeballs popped out of his skull. Crews that resisted pirate invasions often had their throats slit and were thrown overboard to the sharks.
"They were nasty, brutal and vicious people. But they lived in an age which was extraordinarily nasty, brutal and vicious," said Kenneth Kinkor, a leading pirate expert.
In pirate society, everyone got their fair share of stolen loot, Kinkor said. Two shares typically went to the captain, 11/2 shares to the quartermaster and one share to each crew member. By comparison, captains of merchant ships often got 15 times more than the crew, who at times were left with almost nothing
Pirates had a form of disability insurance centuries before it became standard. They were paid handsomely if they lost an arm or a
leg in battle. If they were killed, their families sometimes received payments.
Up to a third of many crews were Black, most of them former slaves, Kinkor said. They had the same right as white pirates to booty and the vote, and some were elected captains by predominantly white crews.
The 1984 discovery of the Whydah, a pirate ship that sank in 1717, forced experts to reassess their view of buccaneers, opening up a whole new page in history that never has been seen before, said Barry Clifford, a Cape Cod shipwreck salvager who located the Whydah off the coast of Massachusetts.
"The deck of a pirate ship was the most empowering place there was for a Black man during the 18th century." Kinkor said.
Last month, Clifford and a crew that included Maxwell Kennedy, son of the late Robert F. Kennedy,
uncovered what they say is an even bigger find: a fleet of up to 18 elaborate French warships and pirate vessels that went down the night of May 3, 1678, after hitting coral reefs off Venezuela's coast.
If confirmed, it would be only the second documented discovery of a pirate shipwreck in the world. Clifford expects it to yield a treasure trove of artifacts including swords, pistols, muskets, pottery, gold, medical supplies, navigational instruments and bronze cannons.
The disaster near Venezuela decimated the French navy in the Caribbean Sea and helped usher in the "Golden Age" of pirating, Kinkor said. The famed era of maritime lawlessness last from 1680 to 1725, at its height, 10,000 pirates roamed the seas.
"It was a chance to break free. It was a maritime revolution," Clifford said.
often treated prisoners decently to encourage other ships to surrender rather than fight to the death. There is only one documented case of pirates making someone walk the plank, and only a couple cases of them making prisoners eat their own ears or lips.
Barbarous behavior aside, pirates
Pirates spent a lot less time in combat than commonly imagined, Kinkor said. The black skull-and-crossbones Jolly Roger flag was raised not to signal an attack but as a warning to surrender. Most captains did. If not, all an-red flag went up, marking an impending raid and robbery.
Child's shooting in South Africa revives bitterness, racism debate
Many pirate ships imposed rules such as no smoking below decks after sunset, lights out by eight, no women or boys aboard and no gambling, which often led to fights.
The Associated Press
"You can't just think of these guys as drunken, ignorant louts," Kinkor said. "Privacy is not just this simple Saturday matinee."
She died 10 days ago of a gunshot, reportedly fired by a drunken white man annoyed by children walking on his family's land.
BENONI, South Africa Angelina Zwane was born into near feudal conditions, living the six months of her life in a cinderblock shack without running water or electricity.
The white coffin, less than 3 feet long, sat at the front of the Benoni Town Hall, topped by yellow and white chrysanthemums.
The Black infant received a hero's burial yesterday, with hundreds of mourners jamming a town hall to sing and pray while Black and white political leaders spoke of the significance of her short life and callous death.
Angelina's killing revived some of the bitterness of apartheid, and the squalor her family endured sparked fresh anger about the plight of most Blacks four years after the nation's first all-race election ended white minority rule.
Outside the funeral service, a group of Black youths danced and shouted, "Farmer, farmer, bullet, bullet," an anti-apartheid chant
that referred to killing white farmers.
Mourners, some wearing colors of the ruling African National Congress, cheered loudly when Winnie Madikizela-Mandela, former wife of President Nelson Mandela, entered and raised her fist in an anti-apartheid salute.
Most mourners followed the coffin to a graveyard in this town 15 miles east of Johannesburg.
She described Nicholas Steyn, the 42-year-old suspect in Angellina's killing, as a gun-toting racist who shouted that he didn't want any more "kaffirs" — a derogatory term for Blacks—on
"Angelaina's family represents the majority of people in this country that have no place to live," said Michael Mundanee of the militant Pan Africanist Congress, who spoke at the funeral.
Madikizela-Mandela blended poplist rhetoric with an acknowledgment that some whites truly wanted to reconcile with Blacks after apartheid.
"What can we say of our promises for a better life ... when we find you in the worst squalor." Madikizela-Mandela said to Angelina's family.
his land.
But Madikizela-Mandela also said white shop owners stopped her on the street this week and offered donations for the Zwane family.
"This confirms that although transformation is slow, we are getting there," she said.
In another sign of change, a speaker from the white-led National Party that ruled during apartheid received a polite reception and applause from the mourners.
"The death of this child may be the beginning of the process of reconciliation ... that will break the cycle of violence," said former Cabinet minister Sam de Beer.
The shooting provoked an unprecedented response from government and Black leaders, with Mandela and some of his Cabinet ministers visiting the scene to condemn it as proof of racism in South Africa.
Angelina was being carried across one of Steyn's fields when a bullet slammed through her head and into the back of an 11-year-old cousin, Francina Diamini, who attended the funeral in her hospital robe. Steyn, who last week chose to remain in jail for his own safety, faces charges of murder and attempted murder.

Scientists starstruck by findings
Evidence shows possible current planet formation
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Signs of a new family of planets orbiting a distant star are the clearest evidence yet of worlds forming beyond our solar system and suggest that planets where life could evolve may exist throughout the universe, astronomers say.
Using powerful new instruments on telescopes in Hawaii and Chile, two teams of astronomers independently found a doughnut-shaped disk of dust rotating around a star 220 light-years away. A light-year is about 5.9 trillion miles.
Astronomers said at a news conference yesterday that the hole in the doughnut may have been caused by the birth of planets.
"A solar system like our own is being constructed in the middle of this disk," said David Corner of the University of Pennsylvania. He is a member of an astronomy team that used the Neck II telescope in Hawaii to study the star.
He said the finding, along with similar discoveries reported this week in the journal Nature, suggests that new planets may be very common throughout the universe.
Another astronomy team, using the Cerro Tololo Observatory in Chile, confirmed the observation.
"Perhaps there are lots of places for life to exist," he said.
Both teams focused on a star, called HR 4796, that earlier studies had suggested could be at the center of what is called a protoplanetary disk.
"These disks are thought to be the birthing rooms of planets," said NASA astronomer Edward Weiler, head of a space agency program that is searching for evidence of extrasolar planets and life.
"We haven't actually detected any planets," said Lee Hartmann of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics and a member of the Cerro Tololo team. But he said the most likely explanation for the absence of dust in the hole of the disk was that planets had formed.
He said new and highly sensitive instruments were allowing astronomers to move from just speculating about planets forming to actually seeing the formations. Hartmann said that during the next few years there would be many new planetary families discovered outside the solar system.
A new type of infrared detector attached to the Keck and the Cerro Tololo telescopes determined that the dust about HR 4796 existed mostly in a thin outer ring and that an empty cavity was between this ring and the star. It is believed that this cavity was carved out by planets that swept up the dust in their birth processes.
A team of American and British
astronomers tells this week in tature finding the telltale doughnut holes in dust disks about three other stars: Vega, Fomalhaut and Beta Pictoris. These stars are older than HR 4796, and it is believed that planetary formation there is further along.
As planets form, said the astronomers, they would tend to act like gravitation vacuum cleaners, sucking up the dust and gas from areas near their orbits. After all the planets are formed, only a faint outer ring of dust and gravel is left. Such a ring, called the Kuiper Belt, exists now around the sun, orbiting beyond Pluto and Neptune, the outermost planets of the solar system.
"This may be what our solar system looked like at the end of its main planetary formation phase," said Michael Werner of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory.
He said comets may be forming now in the outer dust ring about HR 4796, just as comets are thought to have formed in the Kuister Belt.
Crash victim's family sues companies
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The family of one of five skydivers killed in a plane crash last month is suing the maker of the plane's motor, the company owning the plane and Independence Memorial Airport.
The lawsuit filed Monday in Jackson County Court alleges that the engine contained a defective crankshaft and other defective parts.
Paul and Lynda Rueff of Shelbyville, Ill., are seeking unspecified damages in the death of Eric Rueff. 32, of Kansas City, Kan.
The other victims in the March 21 crash wereJulie Douglass,24, of Kansas City,Mo.; pilot Dave Snyder,57, of Independence, Mo.; Marion Rudder,47, of Oksaloosa; Ken Buckley,50, of Independence,Mo.; and John Schuman,47, of Lawrence.
Their single-engine Cessna 206 was attempting an emergency
landing at the East Kansas City Airport in nearby Grain Valley, Mo. Snyder had reported an electrical emergency after taking off from the Independence, Mo., airport, and witnesses said they saw smoke coming from the plane before it clipped some trees and plowed into the ground about 60 yards from the runway.
Whuffo Inc., the company that owned the plane, is a Missouri corporation registered to Snyder, the pilot, who died in the crash.
The lawsuit charges that Whuffo and the airport were negligent in maintenance and service of the aircraft.
Airport owner Robert Schlotzhauer Jr. said Monday that the airport provided no maintenance services to users or tenants.
The National Transportation Safety Board is investigating the accident. The investigation is not completed, but an agency official
said Monday that a metal tube that kept oil from leaking was missing from the plane. In addition, a metal piece that covered one of the plane's six cylinders and kept oil inside to lubricate the valves and pistons was loose.
The Kansas City Star reported yesterday that aircraft mechanics said such a situation could lead to oil spewing from the engine onto the manifold and other hot parts, producing smoke and possibly fire.
That is consistent with witness reports from the crash. Witnesses said they first saw white smoke, then black smoke and orange flames coming from the plane's cowling.
The board's final report is not expected for several months.
Two years ago, the United States Parachute Association, the industry's main safety advisory group, asked the Greater Kansas City Skydiving Club to give up its membership because of alleged safety problems. The club protested and agreed to withdraw.
Maintenance logs obtained from the FAA indicate that work was done on the plane's cylinders and rings in February. John Cochrane, an AFA-certified mechanic since 1993, worked on the plane's oil pump and declared the craft airworthy on March 14.
Ron Sharp, president of the Greater Kansas City Skydiving Club, and pilot Charlotte Leach said the Cessna's fuel-injected engine flooded at one point on the afternoon of the crash.
Later, Sharp said, the plane's battery was recharged. Another pilot took a test flight. Then Snyder and his passengers took off.
"It sounded good," Sharp said of the motor. "It sounded perfect. He took off, and that was the last I saw of him."
Paul McCartney says he loves her
The Associated Press
LONDON — A heartbroken Paul McCartney paid eloquent tribute yesterday to his late wife, Linda, detailing her final moments before she succumbed to breast cancer and vowing that she was, and still is, the love of his life.
When his wife of 29 years lay dying Friday, the former Beatle said his last words to her.
"You're up on your beautiful Appalaloa stallion," he said in a statement. "It's a fine spring day. We're riding through the woods. The bluebells all are out, and the sky is a clear blue."
"I had barely got to the end of
the sentence when she closed her eyes and gently slipped away," he said.
McCartney also released six pictures of his 56-year-old wife, a photographer and vegetarian pioneer, taken recently by their daughter Mary.
Two days before her death in Santa Barbara, Calif, the McCartneys had ridden horses together. Their close aide, Geoff Baker, said Mrs. McCartney's rapid deterioration came without warning, the morning of the day she died
"The past two years we spent battling her disease have been a nightmare," McCartney said. "She never complained and
always hoped to be able to conquer it. It was not to be."
"Our family is so close that her passing has left a huge hole in our lives," he said. "We will never get over it, but I think we will come to accept it."
The final words of McCartney's statement were "I love you, Linda."
Mrs. McCartney was cremated in California before her husband and four children flew back to Britain on Saturday, Baker said.
No details of a service were released. However, the Sun, a tabloid newspaper, reported yesterday that her ashes had been scattered on the family farm at
Peasmarsh, 50 miles southeast of London.
A vegetarian cookbook, called "Linda McCartney on Tour," will be released later this year, and an exhibition of her photographs will take place in New York.
About six songs Mrs. McCartney recorded shortly before she died could be released as part of an album tribute to her life, Baker said.
Forty rolls of film taken of the Beatles by Mrs. McCartney in the 1960s, which were found undeveloped a month before her death, likely will be released as a documentary of the band's final days, Baker said.
Judges examine claims that firm is anti-competitive
Hard questions about Microsoft
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Three federal appeals judges, asked to consider procedural questions in the Justice Department's fight against Microsoft, instead went to the heart of the debate: Is the company illegally trying to dominate its competitors?
Microsoft is appealing a judge's Dec. 11 preliminary injunction that prohibited it from forcing computer makers who sell Windows 95 to also offer Microsoft's Internet browser. The company claims the browser is bundled so tightly within its dominant Windows operating system that Internet Explorer is not actually a separate product.
The sometimes-esoteric debate is important because Microsoft may, under a 1995 agreement with the Justice Department, develop integrated products for its Windows operating system, which is used on the vast majority of desktop computers. Microsoft's Internet Explorer is second in popularity only to Netscape Communication Corp.'s browser.
The Justice Department, which is considering a broader antitrust case against Microsoft, contends the software company is using its Windows market muscle to foist its browser on customers unfairly, illegally squeezing other companies' browsers out of the market. Government attorneys say "tying" the sale of Windows 95 to the use of Internet Explorer is anti-competitive and wrong.
U.S. Circuit Judge Patricia M.
Wald questioned yesterday how that injunction was granted.
In a broader sense, the fight about browsers is vital to Microsoft because of the Internet's explosive popularity and the possibility that Internet browsers eventually could replace Windows as software operating systems.
The court's decision could be announced in one to three months.
"What it all comes down to in the end is, what is an integrated product," Wald said. Much of the hearing was spent trying to answer that question.
The Justice Department argued that Microsoft's current Internet browser is a stand-alone product, in part because it had been marketed simultaneously alongside Windows 95. Microsoft has said its original Internet Explorer was not included in the earliest Windows 95 because of technical delays.
"If Microsoft stopped selling the browser separately, it's not a violation? Why does that make sense?" asked Judge A. Raymond Randolph. "What's to prevent Microsoft from bundling a new browser, one that's never been marketed, with Windows 98?"
Internet Explorer
"There may be no basis, your honor," answered Justice lawyer Douglas Melamed, the deputy assistant attorney general for antitrust.
The third judge, Stephen F. Williams, noted "the complete overlap of code, or if not complete overlap then a large degree of overlap" between Windows 95 and Internet Explorer.
But when Microsoft defended its right to integrate products with Windows, Wald accused the company: "Your position is, you can have your cake and eat it, too?"
Microsoft's attorney, Richard J. Urowsky, asked the three-judge panel to overturn the Dec. 11 preliminary injunction because the Justice Department had never requested such a move. Instead, the government had asked U.S. District Judge Thomas Penfield Jackson to find Microsoft in contempt for allegedly violating that 1995 agreement.
Taking on that argument, Wald told Justice lawyer Melamed: "For a preliminary injunction, you are supposed to show irreparable harm (to consumers). If you didn't think harm was so great, how do you justify your strategy?"
"We were wrong," Melamed conceded, in failing to describe fully how tying Windows 95 and Internet Explorer together hurt customers. But he defended Jackson's preliminary injunction, even while acknowledging it was odd to get that ruling without requesting it.
"That's not the way we hand out preliminary injunctions up here," Wald said.
Microsoft also contends that Jackson overstepped his authority when he appointed a special master, Harvard University law professor Lawrence Lessig, to consider important technical issues in the case. Microsoft claimed Lessig was biased against it, and that the judge tried to give Lessig too much authority.
Although the issue was barely raised yesterday, the panel appeared sympathetic to the need for experts.
The Justice Department declined to comment afteryesterday's hearing.
"We are in an area as judges — as smart as we are — where we don't always understand," Wald said.
Microsoft Senior Vice President Bill Neukom praised the judges for exploring what it means to integrate programs into Windows, calling that the central issue in the appeal.

Classroom aura colors learning
Design schemes, lighting brighten attention span
story by ronnie wachter • rwachter@kansan.com
"There are a lot of left-handed students and not enough left handed chairs. That's a fairly consistent issue."
lorna zimmer director of student services with disabilities
feeling tense or angry as finals approach? You're
1. You're seeing too much red.
Do you walk into your classroom and start feeling depressed? The room may have too many blues.
University of Kansas professors say that the design of classrooms, including furniture, lighting and paint color, can affect students' abilities to learn.
KU students say some of their classrooms are not the best learning environments the University could offer.
Got milk? Though the subject may be stimulating, the professor may not always be able to hold the attention of the class. Color, design, lighting and other distractions can affect students' ability to learn. Glare caused by window placement and overhead lights (left) can cause distractions and students to have to shield their eyes if the light reflected off a highly polished surface.
"Out or all the buildings I've had classes in. Wesco Hall has by far been the worst." said Mark Diehes, Lawrence junior. "It's like your house: You can have all the lights on and you can see, but it's a totally different feeling if you have sunlight."
In his 1995 book, Light: The Shape of Space, Lou Michel KU professor of architecture and urban design, wrote that color could be as important to a classroom as a chalkboard.
"Color affects brain activity and biorhythms, influencing our moods and feelings," he wrote.
Those are dulling colors," he said. "You put race horses in boxes painted green or blue, and they calm down."
The color of paint on a room's walls could disrupt a student's ability to concentrate. Michel writes, Red, yellow, orange and, in some cases, purple are considered exciting colors that could overstimulate students, especially those who are stressed as they start to think about finals.
Mook said that green and blue were also not good colors to use in a classroom.
Michel found that there was a glaring problem with glaring classrooms, which can occur with the use of overhead lights.
Martin Moek, assistant professor of architectural engineering, said those colors are rarely used in classrooms in the United States.
The color of a room, and almost everything else in it, is affected by the room's light. Although light is something of a requirement in most classrooms, it can at times be a hindrance as well.
"They are used a little in Europe," he said. "I think here everybody goes for dull grey."
"These are conditions of glare, causing people to shield their eyes, squint, or look away, and prohibiting the eye from functioning at full efficiency."
John Gaunt, dean of the School of Architecture, said that glare could also be caused by window placement.
But sunlight comes through windows, which can pose problems.
It is not difficult to deal with, as long as you are aware of it when designing," he said.
"It is difficult if not impossible to focus on a given task on a highly polished tabletop that reflects a bright light overhead," he wrote.
Gaunt said the best way to eliminate glare was to employ sunlight instead of overhead light whenever possible.
"There are positive and negative aspects to that." Gaunt said.
He said that humans tended to have a sub-conscious connection to the sun.
"In a normal classroom situation, you would not want to shut off access to the outside," he said. "We live with light. Everything is
defined by it, so you respond by every human mechanism to it."
But students may respond to outdoor distractions they see through windows, he said.
"If it's a cloudy day out, your students tend to be down," he said. "If it's bright and sunny, they may just want to go outside."
And that is only the beginning of the problems windows can pose.
"Windows are one of the things that can disrupt acoustics in a room," said Bob Coffine, professor of architecture. "There's a lot of things that can affect that."
Coffine said that proper acoustics in a classroom were essential.
"What it's all about is the decay rate, the reverberation, if you will, of a room," he said.
Coffine said that the problem with certain classrooms was flutter echo, which he said happened when sound bounces repeatedly off of parallel surfaces.
He said some of the worst acoustics on campus used to be found in the enrollment center in Strong Hall.
"It was a disaster," he said. "There were a lot of complaints that it was hard to understand people in that room."
re said that the University hired a construction firm to build a new ceiling of sound-absorbing panels a foot below the original ceiling.
"It's been a major improvement," he said. "They put carpeting on the floor for a more friendly feel, and that helps deaden the sound of footfalls, too."
"If you have a window placed behind or close to a speaker, the light coming from it can keep someone hard of hearing from reading his lips," Shuttic said. "It can also make it hard to read an interpreter's hand signs."
Michael Shuttic, chairman of the Architectural Barriers Committee, said that all of the problems that could be presented in the design of a normal classroom were only magnified in auditoriums.
"Like if someone is recovering from surgery or has a cast on their leg, they'll require a certain kind of seat," she said. "Someone with back problems might need something soft to sit on. We have people who talk to us on a regular basis about things like that."
"Students in wheelchairs or with other challenges may not be able to get inside a classroom, or may not be able to find a seat where they can see and hear the teacher," he said. "We sometimes have to change the location of the class, and we're always looking for ways to make improvements."
"There are a lot of left-handed students and not enough left-handed chairs," she said.
"That's a fairly consistent issue."
"The University has put hundreds of thousands of dollars each year into improving classrooms." she said.
Shuttic said the Architectural Barriers Committee fielded complaints from students with disabilities, whose classrooms can impair their learning — after they get into the classroom.
[Classroom]
Zorna said she believed that the University did a good job of meeting the needs of all its students.
Lorna Zimmer, director of Services for Students with Disabilities, said that students with temporary disabilities needed special accommodations that many classrooms are unequalled to provide.
Aside from students with disabilities, Zoma said her staff assisted many students who differ from the prototypical student which most rooms were designed for.
Aside from the lack of lefty-chairs, Zornai said that many desks have been covered in graffiti making them difficult to write on. She
also said some chairs were simply too old and in advanced states of disrepair; much like some of the classrooms they are in.
She said that her department, which is located in the basement of Strong Hall, often received complaints about classrooms in the upper levels of the building.
"There are some rooms on the third floor that are in very bad shape," she said.
But Zimmer didn't think those rooms have posed many serious problems.
"In general, students are pretty tolerant of things like that," she said.
Bright colors, such as those in a Strong Hall lecture room (above), have the ability to overstimulate students. Because windows in a room can disrupt acoustics, the auditoriums in Budig Hall (left) are lighted artificially. Without natural light, however, students might be missing something they need. "We live with light," said John Gaunt, dean of the School of Architecture. "Everything is defined by it, so you respond by every human mechanism to it."

By John Blakely Wilson
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas baseball team spiraled out of postseason contention by losing both games of a doubleheader, 7-1 and 5-2, last night against the Texas Longhorns (19-25) at Disch-Falk Field in Austin, Texas.
The Jayhawks (18-24) had to win eight of their last nine conference games to finish with an even Big 12 Conference record and to give themselves a chance to qualify for the conference tournament. The top six teams in the 'Big 12 qualify, and Kansas is currently 5-15 in conference play.
Yesterday's games were another bitter blow to the team's fading confidence.
In the first game, Texas pitcher Scott Dunn pitched a complete game and struck out a career-high 11 batters. Pitcher Brian Schriner picked up the loss for Kansas. Schriner pitched six innings and allowing four earned runs.
Sparky Wilhelm was the lone bright spot for the Jayhawks with two hits and a run batted in.
The second game was no better for the Javahaws.
Before the home run, Corson had pitched four scoreless innings. Starting pitcher Dan Auckland also was effective, allowing two runs in five and two-thirds innings.
"I thought we were going to win it," said coach Bobby Randall. "Anduck and Mark Corson pitched great today, and we had our chances to win. The second game, we played baseball the way Jayhawk baseball is supposed to be played."
Randall said the team needed to regroup and to prepare for the final game of the series at 2:30 p.m. tomorrow.

Kansas had nine hits but scored just two runs. Designated hitter John Nelson had three hits and a run batted in. First baseman Randy Case and center fielder Clint Wryrick each had two hits.
"Tomorrow is the next game," Randall said. "That's always the most important game—the next game."

A recruiter of many talents
Eatman's success goes with strong work ethic
By Kevin C. Wilson Kanson sportswriter
Kansan sportswriter
Tim Eatman's job is never done.
If he's not flying to visit a recruit, he's scouring a pile of videotapes, calling a recruit's school counselor, compiling a list of the best sophomore basketball players in Alabama or doing any number of things that go along with being a coach, a recruiter, a husband and a father.
"You're always busy when you’re recruiting," said Eatman, a Kansas assistant women's basketball coach and the team's recruiting coordinator. "You have to have a handle on all aspects of a recruit's life. It takes a lot of time and effort and a lot of sleepless nights."
Head coach Marrian Washington said that Eatman possessed a unique ability to relate to young people. That, combined with his exceptional work ethic, makes him one of the best recruiters in the business, Washington said.
"You have to outwork people in order to be successful in recruiting, and coach Eatman works extremely hard," Washington said. "He's taken a lot of responsibility off my shoulders and been a tremendous help."
He also has been a tremendous success.
Eatman joined Washington's staff in 1996 and since has helped the Jayhawks secure two consecutive top-10 recruiting classes, including the No. 8 class for next season.
The class includes Selena Scott and Dalton Brown, who are considered to be among the top high school seniors in Texas and Virginia, respectively. However, the Jayhawks' recruiting class is not yet complete. Eatman said.
"We are still looking to sign two more
15th," he said. "Kids are still taking visits and we're right there where we want to be — we're in the hunt." Eatman began his coaching career in 1988 as head coach
at Talledega College in Talledega, Ala. In his first year, he led a team that was 0-26 the previous year to a 16-13 record.
In addition to his coaching duties, Eatman was responsible for recruiting while at Houston and at Iowa. In 1994, he helped sign the No.1 recruiting class in the country for the Hawkeyes and was hailed "The New King of Recruiting" by Basketball Times.
He then went to assistant coaching jobs at Mississippi State, the University of Houston and the University of Iowa.
Eatman attributes his success with recruiting to his parents' teachings.
"I was raised on a farm, and my mom and dad taught me that the harder you work, the more success you will have," Eatman said. "My mom always told me the truth and taught me that your word is your bond."
Eatman said that he used this belief to recruit a player the way he would hope to be recruited.
"Would you like a letter every day? Would you like a recruiter to watch your games? Would you like honesty, fairness and truthfulness?" Eatman asked. "The answer is yes."
Although Eatman is the lead recruiter on Washington's staff, she said that getting a student-athlete to commit to Kansas was a team effort.
Washington credited assistant coaches Maggie MaHD and Misty Opat, along with her players, with helping acquire new talent each year.
"We divide the country up into sections, and each coach gets an area," Washington said. "Once we get them interested, we try and get them to the campus and have our players finish the job."
Eatman describes the process as a relay race, with the first and second legs being his responsibility.
"My job is simple," Eatman said. "I just have to find the players and get them to take a campus visit. The third leg is the players, and they talk to the recruits and tell them about the program. The anchor is Washington. She's an Olympic coach, a grandmother and has 25 years of experience. I just put things in place."
Eatman's relationship with Washing-
on did not begin when he decided to accept the job at Kansas, but rather when he was just a teenager.
"I heard her speak when I was 19
I heard her speak when I was 19 years old and her presentation was just great," Eatman said. "I went up to her and told her that I wanted to work for her. She told me to come and help at her summer camp and we'd go from there." Eatman took Washington up on her offer, and he still has a picture hanging on his wall of the team that he coached at the
camp.
When the opportunity arose for Eatman to join the Javhawks' staff, he jumped at it.
Eatman uses his love for the University of Kansas to sell the program to prospective athletes.
"I came to Kansas because of Coach Washington," Eatman said. "And when I got here I fell in love with the campus, the people and the city."
"We have great academics, a beautiful campus and a great athletic tradition," Eatman said. "If we get them on the campus and they see what we have to offer, we're almost always able to sign them."
Although Eatman, who has ambitions of ascending to a head coaching position, has experienced tremendous success in recruiting, he said that recruiting was not the only thing he could do.
"I'm not just a recruiter, but I am a great coach and teacher as well." Eatman said.
"When you are labeled a recruiter, people forget that you can do X's and Q's, too."
One thing that Eatman never forgets about is his religion.
A daily devotional handbook sits in his office, and despite all of the responsibilities and distractions that surround him, God remains the focus, Eatman said.
"He is the head of my life," Eatman said.
"I try to put Him固定 in everything I do."
Fly optimism first everything you do.
In addition to coaching, recruiting and serving God, Eatman also finds time for his family.
He and his wife Crystal have a two-year old son, Tyler, and Eatman relates the experience of seeing his son grow with the experience of watching his recruits develop.
"My job is so rewarding," Eatman said. "It's like raising a child. When my boy said his first words, it was just awesome. It's that same type of journey that makes it so much fun."

Catcher Kristina Johnson tied Sara Holland on the career home-run list, hitting her 14th career homer in the fourth inning of the first game.
The Jayhawks swept the Bears in a doubleheader, 4-0 and 1-0, and improved their record to 26-31.

Kansan sportswriter
The wind was blowing at Jayhawk Field yesterday as the Kansas softball team hit three home runs against Southwest Missouri State.
Right fielder Jennifer Funkhouk hit two home runs — one against each Southwest Missouri pitcher — and recorded the Jayhawks' only run in the second game.
"I was a little more disciplined than I have been in that I was being more patient," Funkhouser said.
In the first game, Funkhouser went 2-for-2 and put the Jayhawks in the lead 1-0 with a home run over the left-field fence in the third inning.
"I was a little nervous against the first pitcher because of the rise," Funkhouser said. "I was surprised when she came in on me because I was looking for an outside pitch."
Johnson hit a homer to almost the same spot in the fourth inning, bringing the lead to 2-0.
The Jayhawks continued the hitting spree in the fifth inning when second baseman Lezli Leathers and Funkhouker both picked up base hits. Third baseman Sarah McCann doubled to left field, bringing home two runs and increasing the lead to 4-0.
Pitcher Jessi Kowal gave up only three hits in the shutout and improved her record to 12-17 with the 4-0 win.
The Jayhawks' offense had a little more trouble against Nora Cagin, the Bears' second pitcher.
Throwing slower than most pitchers the Jayhawks have faced this season, Cagwin held the Jayhawks to only four hits in the 1-0 Kansas victory.
With two outs in the scoreless fifth inning, Funkhouser hit her second home run of the day, sending the ball over the fence in left center field.
"I was a little frustrated because she kept giving me off-speed pitches," Funkhouser said. "But I think she gave me something a little faster in the one I hit."
Funkhouser's second homer of the day proved to be all the Jayhawks needed, as Christy McPhail pitched a shutout to even her record at 14-14.
The Jayhawks have only two doubleheaders left before the Big 12 Tournament, including one against Missouri on Saturday at noon and 2 p.m. at Jayhawk Field.
Coach Tracy Bunge said two wins against Missouri could help the Jayhawks move up from the eighth seed to the sixth seed in the Big 12 Tournament.
Only the top six seeds are guaranteed to play two games in the tournament. The rest have a "playin" and the loser goes home the first day.
"These wins today were very important to the team mentally." Bunge said. "The games against Missouri are huge for the Big 12 Tournament. We need to prepare for their pitching and just stay sharp and be ready to go."
Three of Bunge's players threaten to tie or pass the record for career home runs she set during her playing days. Bunge holds the school record with 15 homers, just one more than Holland and Johnson and two more than shortstop Michelle Hubler.
"I'd be tickled pink when one of them ties it or breaks it," Bunge said. "I remember when I broke the record. The girl who I passed was there, and she ran over behind the fence to get the ball and gave it to me after the game."

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (April 22).
You and your friends can make dreams come true this year. Take the initiative in April and May.
Aries: Today is a 4.
There is gossip going around, and it is not all true. You were there, and you know what happened. You may spend a good part of today making corrections. A little embellishment does not hurt as long as you end up looking good.
Taurus: Today is a 9.
You'll fare best today if you work with a group. They will bring out your talents, and you'll bring out theirs. They can also help you resolve an issue with your sweetheart. Let them know what's happening. You'll get excellent advice.
Gemini: Today is a 4.
Help clear up a misunderstanding between your mate or partner and a bureaucrat. Later today, check in with your folks or an older relative. It looks as if someone is worried about you. Hearing from you will make all the difference in the world.
Cancer: Today is a 9.
Travel looks good today, as does romance. Are you dating a person from another country? Would you like to? Take your vacation abroad. If you have friends you can stay with, your odds of meeting some one to fall in love with are even greater.
An older person who has lots of money and influence is eager to get something done, and you may be able to do it. If so, offer your services, for a price. He or she won't be offended but will try to get the best possible deal. Two can play at that game, you know.
Virao: Today is a 9.
There's plenty of work coming your way. Isn't it funny how you can feel as if you don't have enough for so long, and then suddenly there's plenty — or too much — of a good thing? No use arguing with fate. You might as well relax and enjoy it.
Libra: Today is a 4.
There's more than enough to keep you busy. You hereby have permission to delegate as much as possible. You may have to split the earnings with somebody else, but that's OK. You'll save enough on frustration to be able to afford it. Go for it.
It looks as if you're in love, and it shows. You could be tempted to spend lots of money on a present for your sweetheart. That would be thoughtful, but it isn't necessary and you really can't afford it. How about just going out to breakfast?
Capricorn: Today is a 9.
There are changes under way, hopefully for the better Did you just get a promotion? The work situation looks good, even though it's something of a strain. That's just because you don't quite know what you're doing. Not to not, you'll get the hang of it soon enough.
Aquarius: Today is a 4.
You may be concerned about finances. Actually, not only do you have more than you thought, but you can stretch it even further. Just go carefully through your lists of wants and must-haves. You can get some of the stuff by batering with your friends.
Romance and education are dominant today, not needlessly in that order. If you're already in love, plan for the future and include things you don't know how to do yet. If you're not in love, go to where you can learn something you've always wanted to know.
Pisces: Today is a 9.
You're feeling good, and your intuition is excellent. Don't let a change in plans this morning knock you off your stride. It will become obvious what to do next. Your decision isn't based on self-interest; you're also thinking of others. That's your natural tendency anyway, so don't worry.

Fasano could miss between two weeks and six weeks, said trainer Nick Swartz. The Royals were expected to call up a catcher from their Class AAA team at Omaha or their Class AA team at Wichita.
Fasano was made the backup to Mike Sweeney when the Royals traded Mike Macfarlane to Oakland two weeks ago.
SEATTLE — The Kansas City Royals were down to one catcher yesterday after backup Sal Fasano pulled a muscle in his rib cage during batting practice Monday.
Macfarlane was traded for Shane Mack because the Royals needed outfield help and because Muser wanted to give Fasano a chance.

Fasano was hurt taking a swing in batting practice before Kansas City's game Monday with Seattle.
"It just felt like somebody stabbed me in the back," Fasano said.
Swartz said it was difficult to say how much time Fasano would miss.
Swartz said. "If it's more serious, it could be two, four, up to six weeks."
Utility player Shane Halter was the backup for Sweeney on Monday, but he never has caught in a professional game.

PGA players on par for shot at world's best pro golfer title
The Associated Press
Not that long ago, there was concern that golf needed a dominant golfer. Since Tom Watson took that title from Jack Nicklaus a generation ago, there had been no such animal.
Then came Tiger Woods. The King had arrived. Long live the King.
But a year after Tigermania's peak, no dominant golfer has emerged. And that could not be better news. The battle for the crown of best player the next several years should be a joy to watch.
Consider these numbers:
There have been 14 tournaments on the PGA Tour this year with 14 different winners — none named Woods. The tour hasn't gone this long without a multiple winner since Nick Price won the Colonial in May 1994.
The last 14 majors — the Masters, U.S. Open, British Open and PGA Championship — were won by 14 different people. The last repeat winner was Price, who won the British Open and the PGA in 1994.
During the last 52 weeks, the 44 PGA Tour events were won by 30 different people, and 91 players managed top-three finishes.
For nearly a year, Tiger Woods and Ernie Els have been tied for No. 1 in the World Golf Rankings.
And during the last year, names like Justin Leonard, David Duval and Davis Love III have been creeping up those rankings, pushing aside such stalwarts as Greg Norman, Nick Faldo and Jumbo Ozaki.
A sporting world that loves a good old-fashioned rivalry wants that rivalry to be Woods against Somebody. But it's a lot more complicated than that — and a lot more interesting.
"I don't think there is a r i v a l r y between Ernie and I, because you just can't forget Phil, you can't forget David, you can't forget
Woods; his challengers have given golf back its edge.
Justin or Davis," Woods said. "There are a lot of good players now, and they keep coming up."
There are many ways to determine who is best — and the fun is that there is no conclusive way to arrive at an answer.
Based on top three finishes last year, Duval, Woods and Leonard are first with six while Norman and Love had five. Els, Mickelson and Jeff Maggert had four each.
For performance in important events the last year, Leonard comes out on top, winning the British Open and finishing second in the PGA Championship last year and winning the Players Championship last month.
Based on victories, Duval has been the best the last 52 weeks, winning four times. Leonard, Love and Els won three times, while Woods, Norman, Phil Mickelson, Vijay Singh and Mark Calcavecchia had two victories.
Players could be ranked according to top three finishes the last 52 weeks, with five points for a firstplace finish, three for a second and one for a third and with triple
points for the four majors and double points for the Players Championship and the Tour Championship.
This system has Leonard first with 43 points, followed by Duval with 37, Els and Love with 28 and Woods and Mark O'Meara tied for fifth with 18 points.
Norman, with 17 points, and Mickelson, Jesper Parvinek and Fred Couples with 14 points round out the top 10.
One of the most fascinating players in this mix is Mickelson. Not yet 28 and already with 12 victories, he nevertheless became almost an afterthought by the end of last year when people discussed the best young players.
Hanging over him is the bugaboo of getting a major championship — a fate Woods, Els and Leonard have escaped.
"This is going to be a big proving ground for me," Mickelson said about 1998. "I've set a lot of high goals. I need somehow to take my game to a higher level."
So many players have taken their games to a higher level that it seems that golf might have to settle for a collective ruler rather than a king.
"It took me years to learn where I am," said Duval, who won his last three starts of 1997 and his fifth tournament this year — four wins in eight tries.
It's amusing that a guy, only 28, would talk about taking years to learn something, but it says a lot about the state of the game today. Not only are these guys good, but they have a steep learning curve.
"I can't tell you what you learn," Duval said. "You just learn it. You know it."

GRADUATE AND PROFESSIONAL
STUDENTS ASSOCIATION
ATTENTION GRADUATE STUDENTS
If you have a genuine interest in improving the quality of graduate student life across the University, The Graduate and Professional Students Association (GPA) has 3 staff positions you should consider:
Former Duke player warms the bench, new power forward controls the court
ATLANTA — Christian Laetner does not hear his name anymore when the Atlanta Hawks lineup is announced, and it has nothing to do with the ear-popping music blasting from the arena sound system.
Duties include serving as liaison between the GPA and other University offices, including the Chancellor, Provost, and Deans, as well as Student Senate. Incumbent must be willing to actively advocate for a variety of graduate student concerns. Knowledge of University governance and campus programs helpful. Experience in directing meetings preferred. Duties include managing the GPA budget and handling all disbursements for the organization. Also, processing spending allocation requests for 40 graduate student organizations (GSOs). Must plan and deliver training workshop for GSO Treasurers. Must have budgeting/accounting experience. Familiarity with State Purchasing rules desirable. Duties include compiling and editing the Graduate News Paper (GNP), maintaining the GPA homepage on the WWW, taking and distributing meeting minutes, maintaining e-mail distribution lists for various graduate student constitutencies, and sending electronic and surface mail communiques. Layout experience required, as well as knowledge of PageMaker and HTML.
Laettner's new position not easy
Instead of running out to the court for the opening tip, he gives the starters an encouraging high-five, then turns his back on them and returns to his seat on the bench, the warmup suit still zipped tight.
These are strange times for the player who started in four consecutive Final Fours at Duke, won a gold medal at the 1992 Olympics, was a first-round draft pick by the Minnesota Timberwolves and played in the All-Star Game just a year ago representing the Hawks.
The Associated Press
EXECUTIVE FINANCIAL COMMUNICATION DIRECTOR DIRECTOR DIRECTOR
"It's been difficult because you always want to start," he said. "No one wants to be demoted."
ALL POSITIONS REQUIRE EXCELLENT VERBAL AND WRITTEN COMMUNICATIONS SKILLS.
AS WELL AS THE ABILITY TO WORK WITH DIVERSE GROUPS OF PEOPLE
ACROSS A VARIETY OF CONTEXTS. ALL POSITIONS ARE 12 MONTH (7/1/98-6/30/99),
50% APPOINTMENTS WITH STAFF RATES. EOE.
Laettner, who graduated from Duke with a sociology degree, is one of the league's most thoughtful players. When he ponders his new role, he manages to find something positive in what seems to be such a negative situation.
Since losing his job to Alan Henderson during this year's All-Star break, Laettner has made do most nights with 20 or 25 minutes of playing time.
Applicants should submit a resume and cover letter plus three letters of recommendation to Bill Stuart Position Search Chair, Graduate Executive Committee, 400 Kansas Union, Lawrence, KS 66045. Deadline for applications is 5pm, Friday, April 24, 1998. If you have any questions about the application process, call 785-864-9895, or inquire via e-mail at bstuart@falcon.cc.ukans.edu
tentative player who literally was begged by Wilkens to take a prominent role in the offense.
"For some reason, this seems liberating a little bit," Laettner said. "This year was a weird year because I was starting and getting two fouls right away and going to the bench. Alan was playing 25 to 30 minutes a game anyway, even when I was starting."
"Every player wants to start," said coach Lenny Wilkins, whose team plays Charlotte in the first round of the NBA playoffs. "Christian is no different than anyone
"Christian has accepted his role," said center Dikembe Mutombo. "He didn't cry, he didn't go public to complain about it."
"Now, I may only play 25 or 30 minutes a game, so there's no need to save fouls or hold back at all. When I say liberating, I mean it in that sense. I keep saying to myself, 'Come in off the bench, be more aggressive, play like an animal.'"
With both Laetner and Henderson at the end of their contracts, it is highly unlikely that the Hawks have enough money in their budget to keep both. Clearly, the 25-year-old Henderson is the power forward of the present and the future in Atlanta.
But Laettner does not want to close the door on returning to Atlanta, even if it means staying on the bench.
Laettner, often portrayed as a moody, enigmatic person, seems to be going out of his way to show he is not going to let this new role get him down. He still hangs around with his teammates to heave up shots from midcourt after practice, and he is usually one of the last players to leave the weight room.
Laettner averaged 11.6 points and 5.1 rebounds off the bench during the regular season, seeming to recapture the emotion that was missing when he was a starter. But it has not been enough to displace Henderson, who averages 17.9 points as a starter and is one of the NBA's most improved players.
For instance, the constant foul trouble that plagued him as a starter this season is no longer a consideration. He can afford to be much more aggressive as a reserve, in striking contrast to the
G
else. That's what you would expect. But whatever he can do to help the team, he's willing to do."
"I still think I'm an important part of this team, and that makes me feel good." Laettner said. "Alan is just doing too good. He's too young, too hungry, too aggressive. He's scoring points easy for us. I don't mind admitting that. I'm not a selfish (person) who's going to make a stink about it and be a pain in the butt the rest of the year because I'm not starting. If he were not doing good, I'd be saying something. But he's doing great."
Atlanta Hawks
"You don't sign with a team because you're going to start there," he said. "Even when I signed with Minnesota as a rookie, I wasn't sure I was going to start. That's not my motivating force. I will sign where they want me and where they will pay me what I deserve. I can sit on the bench and make my money like a lot of guys do. But when practice starts, I'm trying to do as good as I can. Maybe I can beat someone out and start again. I can at least play hard and make the guy in front of me better."

Daniels is Sooners' best option
The Associated Press
NORMAN, Okla. — Brandon Daniels spent most of his first two years at Oklahoma playing receiver and then defensive back. Now, he is at quarterback, and he is there to stay.
Daniels, who moved to quarterback in the middle of last season, firmly established himself during spring workouts as the player best suited to lead Oklahoma back to
option football.
"Brandon was born to run the option offense," offensive coordinator Joe Dickinson said after
QJ
Oklahoma's final spring scrimage, in which Daniels ran for 139 yards and scored four times.
In four spring scrimmages, Daniels carried 31 times for 497 yards — an average of 16 yards per attempt. He also threw the ball well, completing 17 of 28 passes for two touchdowns and one interception.
"You may think I'm not a very good passer," he said. "I just never had to where I was at. We never had to pass (in high school). When I need I need to pass, I will do it."
Daniels and tailback De'Mond Parker was held out of spring drills to recover from a stomach injury suffered last season.
The offense was, however, not the only place where changes were installed. The defense was reshaped under new coordinator Rex Ryan, who installed the "46" that his twin brother, Rob, used with success at Oklahoma State last season.
"Overall, I was impressed with our kids this spring," Ryan said. "They picked things up for the most part pretty well. We still have a couple of guys who we're counting on who still need to do a lot better as far as grasping the system."
Blake changed coordinators following his second straight eight-loss season and came away from spring workouts optimistic.
"This football team now has a great foundation to build," Blake said. "I feel more comfortable now with this football team than I ever have since I've been the head coach."
Oklahoma opens the 1998 season Sept. 5 at home against North Texas.
Cowboys to defend winning record
Team to overcome loss of key players
STILLWATER, Okla. — An improved defense was a big reason Oklahoma State's football team had its first winning record in nine years last season. Based on what he saw in spring workouts, coach Bob Simmons expects more of the same this fall.
"I really think we have an excellent chance to be one of the better defenses in the country," he said following the Cowboys' final spring scrimmage.
Simmons is optimistic despite the defense losing its best three players.
Safety R. W. McQuarters, who left after his junior year, was picked in the first round of the NFL draft by the San Francisco 49ers. Cornerback Kevin Williams was a third-round pick. Noseguard Jamal Wilms, who anchored the frontline, was suspended in February and will
enter the suppl mental NFL draft.
"D ef en s i v e l y, there 's a little bit of
oSu
concern back there in secondary. We've got to make sure we find some people that can replace them," Simmons said.
But Simmons said he thought the Cowboys (8-4 last year) were particularly strong at linebacker and expected that to be a big factor this fall. The defense has more speed and depth than it has in his first three years at Oklahoma State.
In the final scrimmage, the defense came up with 13 tackles for losses and one of the linebackers. Dewayne Levels, returned a fumble for a touchdown.
The offense used spring practices to get a feel for the philosophy of new coordinator Ron Calcagni, who was promoted when Les Miles left for a job with the Dallas Cowboys.
Calcagni would like to throw the ball more than Oklahoma State did a year ago, when freshman Tory Lindsay threw for 1,172 yards and completed 62 percent of his passes during the regular season.
Second-string quarterback Chris Chaloupka broke a wrist during the spring, which gave B.J. Tiger more snaps. The fall camp will see the addition of freshman Matt Holliday, one of the most highly regarded high school quarterbacks in the country.
The biggest void was left by All-America tight end Alonzo Mayes, whose great hands and big-play ability far surpassed any other receiver on the team. The Cowboys also had to replace a couple veterans in the offensive line.
Overall, Simmons seemed pleased with the spring accomplishments.
"I think we can go into the fall with a very good chance to be a good football team," he said.
The Cowboys open their season Sept. 12 at Tulsa.
'Bama stadium may be doomed
The Associated Press
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. — There are no falling beams at Legion Field. No reason to panic—yet.
But just like Yankee Stadium, "The House That Bear Built" is stadium — long considered a cornerstone of tradition for sports fans in the South — may never play host to another major college football game.
"We don't have a threat of anything falling, but we have some areas of concern," said stadium manager Walter Garrett. "Engineers have told us it could be a problem in 10 years, five years or two months. But they think we ought to take care of the problems now."
Joints that hold the seats together in the north end zone are deteriorating. Slivers of concrete slowly are peeling off the portals. Supports for two abandoned walkways are wearing away and turning into safety hazards.
The hulking, gray structure surrounded by razor-wire fences never has been an ideal place to visit. The added safety concerns combined with the recent accident at Yankee Stadium - have brought more questions as to whether the patchwork repairs are worth it anymore.
That especially is true in Birmingham, where taxpayers will pay the $2.3 million bill for a rushed series of fixes designed to keep tenants from Tuscaloosa happy.
The news also comes with a referendum pending in August that replace Legion Field.
"Tradition is worth a great deal," says Gene Hallman, a supporter of the referendum. "But there comes a cost to maintaining tradition. At certain times, that cost no longer makes economic sense."
The problems began three years ago when a fan at the Alabama-Tennessee game was hit by a small piece of falling concrete. He sued, and the city settled for an undisclosed amount. The city began inspections that have continued ever since.
The latest inspection turned up the list of problems and jeopardized the three home games Alabama is scheduled to play at the stadium this year.
Athletics Director Bob Bockrath said that if the city could not ensure Legion Field's safety by Aug. 1, he would move the games to Bryant-Denny Stadium on campus.
The city says there will be no problems meeting the deadline.
If there are, it could hasten the end of the long-standing arrangeement between the university and Birmingham. The contract runs out in 2011, and the thought of Legion Field without Alabama has fueled debate about how much weight tradition should carry for a stadium that not even ardent Tide neighborhood Legion Field is in." Bockrath said. "And I get the sense that people really do feel and appreciate the value of having games on campus. There's an atmosphere and feeling that you just can't duplicate when you leave campus."
Still, before Bryant-Denny Stidium began expanding during the last few decades, 83,000-seat Legion Field was the place where Alabama made history.
Joe Namath, Ken Stabil and Lee Roy Jordan all led the Crimson Tide to national championships on Graymont and Sixth streets. Most of the great Alabama-Auburn games took place there. Bear Bryant coached there, and his bust graces the main entrance.
There are thousands of fans who would not miss a game unless beams really were falling.
“If the engineers deem it safe, we'll play there just like we're planning.” Bockrath said. “We want to honor the contract. And there's no doubt about it — people will stream in there just like they always have.”

'90s runners race for '60s records
The Associated Press
PHILADELPHIA — His time was fast enough to win. Faster than any high school miler had run in three decades. But as Sharif Karie crossed the finish line at the 1997 high school boys outdoor track championship, he knew it was not enough.
“On that last 100 yards, at that moment if I had looked up at the clock and realized how close I was to breaking four minutes, I could have done it. I had it in me. But I cleared my mind, and I just thought about winning the race,” said Karie, who finished the mile in 4:02.01. “That was big. I tried for it two years and was closest of any runner, and it wasn't enough.”
For high school runners, the 4-minute mile is still a magic barrier. Only three have broken the mark, the most recent more than 30 years ago. Nearly all high school distance records were set more than a decade ago — including Jim Ryun's 3:55.3 mile record set in 1965
"Those were exciting times. We didn't think a lot about the future; we just thought about breaking four minutes," said Marty Liquori, who ran a 3:59.8 mile in 1967 — the last time a high schooler ran a mile in less than four minutes.
With the outdoor track season opening at Penn Relays this weekend, coaches admit the current generation of high school runners does not approach the one of the 1960s.
NORFOLK
"The kids are not willing to work as hard as they did back then," said Phil Saunders, Karie's coach at West Springfield High School in Virginia. "The dedication isn't there."
The evidence is in the record books.
Jim Ryun holds the top five times in the mile. He set a winning record in high school in 1965, beating the four-minute mile mark. Contributed Photo
Ryun holds the top five times in the mile and top four in 1,500 meters. Gerry Lindgren and Steve Prefontaine hold the top spots at 5,000 meters, and Prefontaine's record for two miles, set in 1969, has been topped only twice—most recently in 1979.
Not one of the top 30 times at two miles, 5,000 meters or 10,000 meters has come in the 1990s. And only four runners have reached the top 30 in the mile this decade.
"Most kids don't work as hard as we used," Lliquori said. "My high school coach, Freddie Dwyer, was tough. He asked more of us, and we did it."
At the height of his high school track season, Liquori ran 80 miles a week. Ryun ran 100 and Lindgren 150. In addition, the heavy mileage included interval workouts—such
as a dozen or more quarter-mile sprints.
In contrast, Karie was running 40 to 50 miles a week in peak season last year. Gabe Jennings, whose 4:02.81 mile won him second place in the 1997 outdoor championships, was running 39 miles a week.
"The kids these days, they're just not Prefontaines. Marty Liquoris or Gerry Linders. Those guys just hammered away and worked like the devil," said Joe Newton, track coach at York Community High School in Elmhurst, ill. "My kids can't believe it when I show them workouts from 20, 30 years ago. They can't believe anyone could do that. But they did."
Newton admits he goes easy on his athletes in part out of pressure to let kids be kids and to ensure they will not become overworked and quit the sport before reaching college.
Liquori said, "In the 70s, when the running magazines started coming out, there was a lot of talk about moderation and pacing yourselves. People who pace themselves don't break the 4-minute mile in high school."

"We're going to be a team to be reckoned with," said San Jose's Joe Murphy, whose team meets
The Sharks pulled first-round upsets in their previous appearances — in 1994 against Calgary and in 1995 against Detroit. They never got past the second round, but this time they want to make a little history.
"We can do some damage," said咕佬曼 Tike Vernon, who led the Red Wings to the Stanley Cup last year while winning the MVP trophy.
NHL
Although the Sharks finished 31 points behind the Stars, they did split their four games with
the Western Conference champions.
"We've got four lines and six defenses, and we play everybody, and that's the strength of our hockey club," Vernon said. "We don't do anything too fancy. We just go out and work hard."
The same could be said for the Ottawa Senators, who split their four games with the Eastern Conference champion Devils. The Senators finished 24 points behind the East's top team.
"We know Ottawa won't be an easy team." Devils coach Jacques Lemaire said. "They've been probably one of the top teams lately. Against us, they always play a tight game. I think we'll have to get goatding. We'll have to get the defensemen to play at their best. The forwards will have to score more."
U.S. soccer team to take on Austria
The Associated Press
VIENNA, Austria — The United States can win the World Cup in 10 to 15 years, Steve Sampson predicts.
For the moment, however, the U.S. coach has more immediate concerns in the form of a tuneup game against Austria today in which the Americans need a cohesive performance leading to the World Cup in June.
Although his team has not played well lately, Sampson knows his squad has an altogether different approach from the team that advanced to the
second round in the last World Cun.
"Before, they only didn't want to lose," he said. "Now, it's a team that wants to win."
Claudio Reyna, the U.S. midfielder who plays in Germany, thinks the Americans could be one of the surprises in France.
"We could be like Sweden in 1994," he said of the third-place finisher.
The United States faces an Austrian team that was first in its qualifying group, although many of its players are past their prime or young and untried.
2 to Hungary, which failed to qualify for the World Cup.
The Americans also have fared poorly. After jitting Brazil 1-0 on Feb. 10, they lost to Mexico, the Netherlands and Belgium, going scoreless in all three games. They then tied Paraguay 2.2.
In March, the Austrians lost 3-
Reyna said the upcoming game was important because Austria's style resembles Germany's. The Germans, along with Iran and Yugoslavia, are grouped with the United States in the World Cup.
"They have a similar game plan. They run a lot and are aggressive," Reyna said. "It's an
important test for us."
Sampson said he was eager to test the depth of his squad against Austria.
"We'll be looking for players 12 to 16 in Vienna," he said. "At the World Cup, you cannot rely on only 11 players."
Austrian coach Herbert Prohaska said a victory at Ernst Happel Stadium was crucial leading to the showcase in France.
Decathlete seeks ninth win at Drake
The Associated Press
DE MONES, Iowa — Kip Janvrin does not train like he used to. He is 32 years old and has a family and a coaching iob to occuvi his time.
"It it's nice to be put in the same category with all the world class Olympians who have competed at the Drake Relays," Janvrin said. "But I don't know if I deserve that. I feel old. But watching Jack Nicklaus do well during the final round of the Masters has me pumped up."
But it would not be a Drake Relays decathlon without him, so Janvin will be back for the multievent competition tomorrow and Thursday, seeking his fourth-consecutive championship and ninth overall.
Kvalvik, the 1996 Drake champion, leads a field of 17 athletes for the heptathlon.
Janvrin, track coach at Central Missouri State, is among 14 athletes entered in the decathlon. Last year's runnerup, Darwin Vande Hoeff, will not compete, but the third-place finisher, Brad Swanson, will return.
Janvrin shares the career lead in Drake Relays victories with eight, a figure also achieved by spinner Gwen Torrence.
Janvrin trailed Vande Hoef by 175 points after seven events at Drake last year. But Janvrin won the final three and finished with 8,048 points
— the 18th time he had topped 8.000.
Missouri's Rannveig
His personal best is 8,462 in
1906, the year he set the Drake
Relays record of 8,198
Among the new faces challenging Janvrin will be pole vaulter Bill Deering, who will compete in his second decathlon. Deering, who has a best of 19 feet, 1/4 inches in the
pole vault, scored 7,597 points in his decathlon debut at the Florida Relays last month.
Also in the field are two athletes who were coached in high school by Janvrin's father, Ken — Travis Geopfert of Northern Iowa and Jay Rhoten of Central. Geopfert finished fifth at the Florida State Relays earlier this year. Rhoten was sixth at the 1997 NCAA Division III meet.
Kvalvik, who did not compete at Drake last year, is coming off a second-place finish at the Florida Relays and was fourth at the Big 12 Conference outdoor meet last year.

Packers player won't retire
White says God told him to play one more year
The Associated Press
MILWAUKEE — Reggie White got the message right in the middle of back theraw! play!
And so, just two days after announcing his retirement from pro football, the NFL's career sacks leader changed his mind yesterday and said he would play for the Green Bay Packers next season.
"I have reevaluated my decision," White said in a statement released by the Packers. "I decided I would not retire and that I would play one more year."
On Sunday, coach Mike Holmgren said the 36-year-old defensive end, who doubles as an ordained Baptist minister, told him that he was retiring because of the bad back that troubled him for most of last season.
According to CNN-Sports Illus.
traited. White was getting his back worked on Monday when, "the Lord spoke to him and told him that he had to be a man of his word and play one more season for the Packers."
White, the first big-name free agent to switch teams, had planned to have a farewell news conference in Green Bay today. Instead, he will use the opportunity to explain his decision to return to the Packers for a sixth season.
Packers spokesman Lee Remmel offered no details why White changed his mind. "It is his decision and his story and he is going to explain that," Remmel said.
White did not return telephone messages.
A team spokesman said general manager Ron Wolf, coach Mike Holmgren and team president Bob Harlan would have nothing to say about White's change of heart until after the news conference.
Packer fans rejoiced at White's change of heart
he's healthy enough to play, he is. He's got the good Lord on his side."
"Wonderful. What can be better? He's the greatest," said Louis Gardipee of Green Bay. "If he says

White first told Holmgren of his intention to retire shortly after the Packers were upset in the Super Bowl. Holmgren trived to
White: Changed mind, will play for one more year.
talk him out of it and offered White a part-time role as a designated pass rusher.
White met with Holmgren about two weeks ago, restating his intention to call it a career. Holmgren tried one last time to talk him out of it, but on Sunday, the two met again and White said he was through.
White has missed only four games in his career, enduring a hyperextended elbow in 1994 and a torn hamstring in 1995.
When White signed a five-year,
$19 million contract extension last
year, he said he planned on playing
at least through the 1998 season. He is due to earn $2.6 million this season, with a cap value of $3.2 million.
White had 11 sacks last year, giving him 176 1/2 for his 13-year career. He was selected to the Pro Bowl for a record 12th consecutive time despite the back problems that limited him to part-time duty. He also walked pneumonia the last month of the season.
White helped lead the Packers to two consecutive Super Bowl appearances, including the team's 35-21 victory against New England in 1997.
A member of the NFL's 75th anniversary team, White joined the Packers in 1993 for four years and $17 million after eight seasons with the Philadelphia Eagles. He single-handedly erased the notion that Green Bay was a city where African-American players didn't want to live and where the team could no longer compete.
White recently was criticized for a March 2 speech to Wisconsin lawmakers in which he used cultural stereotypes and denounced homosexuality as a sin. He later apologized for any harm his remarks may have caused.
College presidents testify for NCAA
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Kan. — Three college presidents, hoping to dodge a huge financial blow, told a federal court yesterday that the NCAA's restricted earnings rule helped more young coaches than it harmed.
The presidents, all officers on the NCAA board of directors, are trying to avoid a penalty that could approach $100 million if a 10-person jury agrees with a group of coaches who claim to have been damaged.
The rule, which capped compensation for assistant coaches in various Division I sports at $16,000 annually for three years in the mid-1990s, already has been found in violation of antitrust law.
A key part of the NCAA's argument during this penalty phase of
NCAA
the case has been that the rule created jobs for young people aspiring to become coaches.
"It was a
very good opportunity for a young coach," testified Kenneth "Buzz" Shaw, president of Syracuse University and chairman of the board of directors.
Much of Shaw's testimony centered on Tim O'Toole, who was Syracuse's restricted earnings coach in men's basketball. The rule specified that a coach could be paid no more than $12,000 during the academic year and $4,000 for summer work.
"I don't think he was hurt by the rule. He grew as a young coach ... and moved on to a more prestigious position at Duke."
Shaw said
The plaintiffs, claiming more than 1,900 coaches were harmed, are asking for $30 million in damages, which would be tripled. The NCAA says no more than 47 or 48 coaches actually sustained economic damage and are due no more than about $650,000.
The hearing became contentious several times, with lawyers for the plaintiffs frequently challenging the NCAA lawyers' line of questioning as irrelevant.
“Your honor, I’m tired of this moek anger,” a plaintiff’s lawyer said of NCAA lawyer Greg Curtter while Penn State president Graham Spanier was on stand.
"It's not mock anger," Curtner shot back.
Under cross examination by plaintiff lawyer Lori Schultz. Shaw agreed that O'Toole had been working 9 a.m. to midnight
as a restricted earnings coach during the season while the other two assistant coaches were making salaries in the $50,000 to $60,000 range and that basketball generated between $5 million and $6 million annually for Svacure.
"Would you be surprised," Schultz asked, "if O'TOole didn't think that making $12,000 a year when the program was bringing in $5 million to $6 million and the other assistants were earning $50,000 to $60,000 as a plum job?"
"Yes, I would," Shaw answered. Spaniard试iest that he would never want to be part of a program that exploited anyone.
Lane Rawlins, president of Memphis State, also testified.
"I never heard one complaint from more than 50 people in three years," he said.
The hearing is expected to last another one to two weeks.
Horse racing groups hope to beat odds with commissioner
The Associated Press
NEW YORK—Given the tough task of reviving interest in thoroughbred racing, Tim Smith became the sport's first commissioner yesterday.
He was hired to run the National Thoroughbred Racing Association, which was formed late last year to bring dozens of racetracks and industry groups under one roof.
For generations, many tracks and racing bodies worked independently as the sport sustained declines in attendance.
"We have great strength in numbers that just needs to be harnessed," Smith said. "Thoroughbred racing has great inherent appeal. Yet it lacked the central structure and marketing programs necessary to compete successfully in today's marketplace."
"For the first time, there's an unprecedented unity across the industry," said Smith, a sports consultant who designed the initial marketing plan for the 1996 Atlanta Games. "There isn't a segment of racing that's not behind this, and that's a major change."
Smith said racing needs structure. He said his first priority was creating a national brand through advertising and marketing and establishing NTRA as the league office.
To that end, the 35 leading raceracks in North America—including Churchill Downs, Belmont, Saratoga, Gulfstream and Santa Anita—along with owners, breeders and other horsemen's associations, contributed $20 million to finance NTRA.
The association will operate out of Atlanta - Smith's home - until a permanent site is determined.
"It's a neutral site, so it doesn't favor any one group," said Breeders' Cup Ltd. president D.G.Van Clief, who served as NTRA's interim CEO before Smith took control. An office in Lexington, Ky., will remain open.
The 49-year-old Smith, who
served as the PGA Tour's deputy commissioner under Deane Beman in the 1980s, said he though NTRA could beat the odds.
"I don't think there's been a fair fight," Smith said. "Now, one racing organization can deliver what fans want, and we can do this by increasing TV awareness, getting more live races on, creating new racing shows."
Smith said NASCAR fans could recite Winston Cup point standings, but horse racing fans were uncertain about the top-rated horses, jockeys, owners and trainers.
"This isn't brain surgery. It just hasn't been anyone's job before," Smith said. "If each track's marketing department is spending money running its track, then promoting racing was nobody's job. Now, it's our job."
Smith said more racing on TV would translate into more people at the racetrack.
"The biggest single problem with the casual fan is racing has become much less on the radar screen than it was 10 years to 15 years ago," Smith said. "It lacks visibility. When our target is a 32-year-old with a few bucks in his pocket who would have a terrific time at the track, he doesn't think about it if he isn't exposed to it. If he, our surveys show there is an inclination to at least sample it."
With the Kentucky Derby, horse racing's glamour event, less than two weeks away, NTRA plans a TV, radio and print campaign featuring actress Lori Petty, who appeared in A League of Their Own.
Also, NTRA's advertising firm came up with the slogan "Go Baby Go." In the TV spots, which began airing this week, Petty plays a racing fan yelling "Go Baby Go" as she roots her horse to victory.
The significance of the campaign can be found in a line in an NTRA news release. It reads: "The campaign marks the first use of national advertising for a sport which was established in the United States nearly 300 years ago."

Survivor to give first-hand story of Holocaust on day of honor
sy Sara Anderson
sanderson@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Today is a day to remember
Holocaust Remembrance Day begins today, and two major events are commemorating it. "Unto every person there is a name" will take place from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. in front of Wescoe Hall. Volunteers will read names of Holocaust victims continuously throughout the day in memory of the victims. Alexander Rosner will present "A Schindler Jew" following the name reading.
More information on the Holocaust Surveys performed by the Holocaust Memorial Museum found that Americans lack knowledge about the genocide
Rosner, a Holocaust survivor, will speak at 8 p.m. at the Kansas Union Ballroom. Both events are free, but those wishing to attend Rosner's presentation need a voucher from the Student Union Activities office. A representative from SUA said yesterday afternoon that the office had only 30 vouchers remain.

vouchers remaining.
"I hope students get a new sense of what happened during the Holocaust," said Molly Ackerman, Minneapolis, Minn., senior and co-coordinator of KU's Holocaust Remembrance Day. "It didn't just happen in Europe; it affected everyone in the world. I want people to understand that if we're not tolerant of differences, this could happen again. If we forget it, it will."

■ "Unto every person there is a name"
9 a.m. to 8 p.m. in front of Wescoe Hall. Volunteers will read names of Holocaust victims continuously throughout the day in memory of the victim.
Alexander Rosner, a Holocaust survivor, will speak at 8 p.m. at the Kansas Union Ballroom. Rosner's presentation requires a voucher from the Student Union Activities office.
the name reading was part of a nationwide event and colleges and universities across the country would participate. She said it was important to have students hear the names because it brought more reality to the event.
"It would take 40 hours a week, for 52 weeks a year, for three years to get 1.5 million names read," Ackerman said. "We won't even make a dent in the 11 million victims. But when you hear the names and put names to the numbers, that's when it becomes real. Then it's not just a number but a person."
Ackerman said that almost every organization on campus had someone reading during the day.
"Participants include greeks, Jews, Queers & Allies, professors and faculty, but the majority are students," she said. "You name it, and people are reading."
Rosner, a Warsaw, Poland, native, began speaking in 1994 about the Holocaust, bigotry and the movie Schindler's List, in which he appears during the epilogue scenes. Rosner was on the original list compiled by Oskar Schindler and was portrayed in the film, Ackerman said. Rosner will receive $5,000 for his presentation at the University.
Susan Elkins, chairwoman of the KU Hillet Foundation board of directors, said that the day was an important remembrance what the Holocaust meant. She said that Rosner offered a real-life experience for students.
The event is sponsored by numerous KU departments, campus organizations, greek chapters, Holocaust organizations and other donors.
"He brings much more reality to people because they hear from someone who has experienced concentration camps and the Holocaust in general," she said. "There are very few survivors left, so it is really critical for students to see someone who was a part of it."

Doug Peacock came in from the wilderness to talk to students and local residents last night about
knowing, not just studying, wild animals.
An author, filmmaker and environmentalist, Peacock spoke to about 300 people at the Kansas Union Ballroom about his experiences living with wild animals and the tragedy of their demise. Peacock was the keynote speaker for this year's Earth Day activities.

paid $2,000 for the speaking fee. The biology, environmental studies and English departments and local businesses financed travel expenses.
Peacock talked mostly about grizzly bears and bison. Peacock said 60 million to 70 million bison lived in North America 200 years ago.
"No herd in the history of the earth, not the wildebeest of Africa, approached the magnitude of the great American bison," he said.
Peacock said the last great herd was seen in Kansas. But by 1902, the only 23 wild bison left on earth lived in Yellowstone Park, he said.
Peacock said bison and grizzlies were slaughtered because of a lack of knowledge about the animals.
Peacock said that this ignorance also had ramifications for humans.
"I think this is happening because we never really got to know the animals." Peacock said
"We have a hard time perceiving what is in the interest of our own
survival," Peacock said, "I'm talking about the survival of the human species, which is a very big deal, which could be the biggest deal in the world."
Peacock signed copies of his book, "The Grizzly Years — In Search of the American Wilderness."
Andrea Repinsky, Olathe junior and KU Environs co-coordinator, said Peacock was well-known for his past activities as an environmental saboteur. Peacock, an exgreen beret medic, is widely rumored to be the basis for George
Haydule, a character in Edward Abbey's cult environmental classic. The Monkey Wrench Gang in the book, Haydule, an ex-green beret medic/eco-warrior plots with friends to blow up the Glen Canyon Dam on the Colorado River.
More information on Earth Day Student involvement in environmental issues was also discussed yesterday in front of the Kansas Union.

New Senate mixes with old in rare setting
By Marc Sheforgen
By Marc Sherforden and Melissa Ngo mshelforgen@kansan.com mngo@kansan.com
Kansan staff writers
Alderson Auditorium was filled to capacity during last night's joint Senate meeting.
The meeting marked the passing of the senatorial torch, as this year's student representatives stepped down to make room for a new class.
The night began with speeches from this year's Senate officers. The mood was light with joking and laughter, an uncommon atmosphere in the often tense setting of Senate meetings.
Scott Sullivan, this year's student body president, thanked Senate for an up-and-down journey that was, in the end, rewarding.
"What we have to realize is students don't care about Senate's partisan squabbles," he said. "They want to know what you're doing."
He challenged the new senators to address the concerns of the students they will represent. A divided Senate is not what students are interested in. Sullivan said.
with your elected positions."
Sullivan left the podium to a partial standing ovation. Many from this year's Senate class seemed to appreciate the work Sullivan had done, but senators who disagreed with him all year remained seated with their hands at their sides. Senate still was divided.
Before this year's Senate adjourned, three holdover senators were elected. The holdover seats go to three representatives who served this year but were not re-elected.
Matt Dunbar won the majority of the votes, followed by Holly Krebs and Dion Jones.
Dunbar, who campaigned unsuccessfully with Delta Force for student body vice president, said he looked forward to serving Senate again.
"Although I don't have the student body as a whole behind me, I have the Student Senate of last year," he said. "So I'm excited to be a representative of that."
As its first act, the new Senate suspended Student Senate rules and regulations to discuss new legislation.
Senate unanimously passed a bill
NEW EXECUTIVE STAFF Senate Executive staff as approved last night:

to give Maria Abatoglou the next open Liberal Arts and Sciences seat.
"I'm doing this because Maria deserves this," said Kevin Yoder, new student body president and bill sponsor. "This is a first step to doing things not because of partisanship but because it's the right thing to do."
Abatjoglu, who was out of town last night, was a Delta Force candidate for a college seat whose name was left off the ballot.
Emily Heath, Delta Force president, said Delta Force was pleased

"We're so happy that Maria has this opportunity," Heath said. "The moment we found out the election's
results, it was a goal of ours to help get her a seat."

Gender roles murky in Cartman household
Irreverent cartoon adds twist to paternity
By Jeremy M. Doherty jdoherty@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
In the grand tradition of "Who Shot JR?" and "Who Killed Laura Palmer?," fans of the popular animated series South Park last night learned the answer to "Who is Cartman's Father?"
And the man whom Eric Cartman can call dad is ... Mrs. Cartman.
In true South Park style, the irreverent cartoon series came back to raunchy life after a seven-week absence and revealed that Cartman's mother is actually his father. "Mrs." Cartman is a hermaphrodite who impregnated another, unnamed woman.
Natasha Franz, Tulisa, Okla., sophomore, said she would have preferred that the crude cartoon play by the rules just once.
"Mrs." Cartman triumphed over more likely suspects in the search for Cartman's dad. Conventional wisdom had fingered South Park denizens such as Chef and space aliens.
"It was stupid, very stupid," Franz said. "I thought they were going to come out with a real conclusion. This wasn't one of my favorite episodes."
The more than 15 students watching the episode at 9 p.m. last night on the third floor of Ellsworth Hall reacted in various ways to the surprise ending.
"It's just like the same old stuff." Kinsey said. "It's still pretty shocking, and it was funny."
Neil Kinsey. Shawnee senior, laughed at the twist ending and said it fit the tone of the series.
Whatever students thought of the episode's surprise conclusion, most seemed to enjoy it. The weekly death of Cartman's accident-prone pal Kenny drew chuckles and prompted a few expressions of disgust from the Ellsworth viewers.
Since its premiere last August, South Park, which is rated TV-MA, has become the highest-rated program on cable television.
Critics complain that the series, which focuses on the hijinks of Cartman and his coarse-humored buddies, revels in bad taste and gratuitous displays of violence.
Fans of the series, such as Conor O'Neil, Salina freshman, disagree.
"To a lot of people, it is like that." O'Neil said. "But to most people my age, we're used to that sort of stuff. It's just sort of the wall, and you don't expect a lot of the things they do or say.

Johnson County attorney will not represent Vestal
Dennis Moore, a former Johnson County district attorney, said yesterday he would not represent Matthew Vestal, the driver of the 1997 Mitsubishi Montero that fatally injured Overland Park freshman Lisa Rosel on March 31.
Vestal, Englewood, Colo., freshman, had a .081 blood alcohol level when his vehicle hit Rosel, according to a Lawrence police report. The legal limit for drivers younger than 21 is .02. No charges have been filed against Vestal.
Based on information from Moore's office, the Kansan reported yesterday that Moore had taken Vestal's case. Moore, who is running for the 3rd District congressional seat, said he had talked with Vestal's family about representation. Since then, Moore has decided not to represent Vestal.
"I really don't make it a practice to discuss why or why not I choose to take a case," Moore said.
Chris Espizito, Moore's campaign manager, did not know whether Moore ever had officially offered his services. However, he confirmed that Moore would not serve as Vestal's attorney.

"He is no longer involved in the case in any way, shape or form," Espizito said.
Students share memories about unique spring break
Spring break ended last month, but some University of Kansas students will
share their memories and experiences tonight during a presentation about Alternative Spring Break.
Students who participated in the Alternative Spring Break program in March will take part in a multi-media presentation at 5:30 p.m. at Alderson Auditorium in the Kansas Union. A reception will follow the program.
Jeff LaCroix, Olathe senior, and Chris Hess, Wichita sophomore, directors of the Alternative Spring Break program, will introduce the presentation.
"People are going to talk about the impact the trip had on them, what they did and what they learned," LaCroix said. "Chris and I will explain how it fits in the curriculum."
Following LaCroix's and Hess' introduction, members of the groups that went to Detroit; Cleveland; Harlem, N.Y.; Philadelphia; El Paso, Texas; Washington, D.C.; and Kirtland, Ohio, will speak.
Glen White, assistant professor in the department of human development and family life, said to enhance their presentations, Alternative Spring Break participants would use pictures, slides, video and anecdotes during their presentations.
"They will say what spring break did for them and what they did for others," White said. "It's the most diverse class I've ever had. These kids come from middle class and have no clue what it is to be in a marginalized population. It's kind of a reality check." White said the program varied.
White said the program provided Lawrence with active and informed citizens.
"It's kind of a service learning project," White said. "They take what they learn in school and apply it in the community."
Alternative Spring Break is a program of the Center for Community Outreach and is connected to HDFL 606, a class on special projects in the community, which is taught by White.
Discussion to examine Lawrence's sister city
Lawrence's sister city in El Salvador is going to be the topic for discussion tonight
Michael Ring, coordinator for the U.S.-EI Salvador Sister Cities project, will be a guest speaker for the Lawrence-EI Papaturio Friendship Committee at 7:30 p.m. in room 101 of the St. Lawrence Catholic Center, 1631 Crescent Road.
Ring is traveling to Wichita for a regional conference. His stop in Lawrence is a chance to inform the committee about recent events in El Salvador and how non-governmental organizations are helping poor rural communities, especially in El Papaturo, said Liz Maggard, Lawrence-El Papaturo Friendship Committee member.
"I think the most recent event he is going to talk about is the bill that Salvadorian legislators passed to forgive real estate debt." Maggard said.
She said that this measure was important to El Papaturo because some communities were in danger of losing their land because of such debts.
Ring was the Sisters Cities field person in El Salvador for three years before becoming the program's coordinator.
"Since he became the coordinator of the program, he brought his organizing skills to bring the group together," Maggard said.
Megan Hope, Garden City graduate student and president of the Latin American Solidarity Organization, said Ring had been instrumental in developing the friendship between El Papatum and Lawrence.
"He knows an awful lot about the relationship between communities in the U.S. and El Salvador," Hope said.

Hemophilia is a hereditary condition that results in excessive bleeding because of inadequate coagulation of blood, and people with this condition receive frequent blood transfusions. The bill is named for Ricky Ray, a 15-year-old Florida boy who died of hemophilia-associated AIDS in 1992.
The House Ways and Means Committee unanimously agreed to exempt these payments from federal taxes. The bill also says the payments will not threaten a hemophilia's benefits under the Supplement Security Income system.

PARIS — The French parliament yesterday voted in favor of adopting Europe's new single currency, although conservative lawmakers from President Jacques Chirac's party abstained.
The nonbinding resolution passed easily by a vote of 334-49. Deputies from the Socialist Party and the conservative Union for French Democracy voted for the measure, while the Communists and the Socialist-allied Movement of Citizens were opposed.
Chirac last week made a strong pitch for the euro in a rare Paris news conference, but many members of his Rally for the Republic (RRP) party worry the currency will undermine French sovereignty.

Pulitzer winner Carl Bernstein to give lecture
By Marcelo Vilela
mvilela@kansan.com
Kansas writer
The man who helped unravel the story of all the president's men will speak on campus Saturday night.
Carl Bernstein, a Pulitzer-winning journalist and author, reached world fame in 1974 when he and reporter Bob Woodward wrote a series of investigative stories for The Washington Post about the Watergate scandal, which occurred during President Richard Nixon's administration.
Bernstein's presentation begins at 8 p.m. in
120 Budig Hall. Vouchers to attend the lecture are free and available today at the Student Union Activities box office. A representative from SUA said 1,200 vouchers would be available.
SUA spent $8,600 to bring Bernstein to campus.
BROOKLYN, NY - MAY 27, 1980
A man smiles at the camera.
Bernstein's presentation will focus on the corruption of mass media. A question and answer session and a
Bernstein: Uncovered scandal during Nixon administration
reception for select faculty and SUA alumni will follow Bernstein's lecture.
Jeff LaCroix, Olathe junior and SUA vice president for university relations, said Bernstein was the top choice to speak during the alumni weekend.
"A lot of people recognize him for the work he did during Watergate," LaCroix said. "Besides, he is still involved with the press."
Bernstein's journalistic adventures with Woodward during the Watergate era resulted in the book "All The President's Men." The book was made into a movie in 1976.
Bernstein lives in New York and works for the The Washington Post, where he occasionally writes music reviews. His articles have appeared in Time, Rolling Stone, The New York Times and The New Republican, among other publications.
Cody Simms, Wichita junior and SUA forums coordinator, said, "Bernstein is a recognizable name to older students, and younger students can learn more about him."
Malcolm Gibson, assistant professor of journalism, said "It shows the power that journalism can have on a country in holding its officials accountable. It also shows the strength of our democracy."

Education building for future
School to move to renovated JRP
By Gerry Doyle gdoyle.kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The School of Education will close the book on its tenure in Bailey Hall — but not until 2000.
Before the move Joseph R. Pearson Hall must be remodeled completely to accommodate the school's needs, said Karen Gallagher, dean of the school.
Initial construction for the $14 million project includes knocking down everything in the building and starting from scratch, but the work includes far more than just renovations. Gallagher said.
"It it's in the works since 1990," she said. "We were looking for a place for the School of Education to expand to. We've been working with the architects for the past two years."

Twenty-five thousand square feet of new space will be constructed, including a five-story addition on the east side of building.
"It's going to be pretty exciting," she said. "Right now, the classrooms in Bailey aren't really state-of-the-art anything. All of the faculty and staff from Bailey, Dole and Robinson will be in one place. We've never been all together."
She said the new building also would allow the school to conduct more distance education.
The architecture firm Gould Evans Associates, 706 Massachusetts St., has designed the new space for the school, Gallagher said. Not only will new offices and seminar rooms be constructed in the existing space, but also there will be numerous additions, she said.

Assistant provost
Bidding for the removal of lead and asbestos in the building will start next week, and the actual work will begin after classes end for the spring — probably in early June. he said.
In the beginning, the work will include ripping out all of the old fixtures, he said.
"We will go in and do a complete gut," he said. "All the internal electrical systems have to be taken out. Then, we will go back and redo the building for the School of Education."
"The School of Education is bigger than Bailey Hall. JRP is no longer needed as a dormitory."
Modig said that the idea to reno
vate the project was not a new one but that the money had not been available until 1996's crumbling classrooms legislative allocation.
"We've wanted to renovate the facility for quite some time," he said. "Crumbling classrooms got the program funded."
Rich Givens, assistant provost,
said that some of the renovations
had the green light but that others
would begin once money became
available.
"Some have money; some are for the future," he said. "The School of Education is bigger than Bailey Hall. JRP is no longer needed as a dormitory."
JRP was abandoned as a residence hall about eight years ago and has been used for office space since then, he said.
The project will move into the construction phase in September. It is slated to be completed before the 2000 school year.
The humanities department of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences will move to Bailey.

A performance poet used spirituality, humor and personal experiences to express herself through poetry.
Last night in the Jayhawk Room of the Kansas Union, doris davenport performed as part of Pride Week. The event "Clouds and Mountains, Illusions and Identities: Poetry and Related Digressions" from Three Books of Poetry" was a performance collection created specifically for davenport's visit to the University of Kansas. A question-and-answer session followed the event, which about 40 people attended.
Audience members, davenport said she hoped, could use her poetry to make their own interpretations.
"I hope you listen and take a deep breath," she said. "If you find yourself mad at me, ask yourself why. I hope that somewhere you find something useful here."
Christa Madrigal, Kansas City, Mo., sophomore, said she enjoyed the performance and

"It is very emotional and very spiritual," she said. "The fact that she uses her own experience. And you can pull bits and pieces out of her work and apply them to your own life."
Beginning with a spiritual invocation ceremony, davenport used music and lyrical movements to set the stage for her poetry. She drew from personal experiences as a working class, Southern Appalachian, African-American, lesbian feminist and recited poetry about broken relationships, the sexual revolution, racism and feminism.
"Many of my poems are stories that I hope will get completely
told one day," she said. "Because of all the different identities I've had and all the different relationships I've had, I've always been part of a group, yet out at the same time."
Christine Robinson, Lawrence graduate student, said davenport's performance was spectacular.
"It was fabulous and unparalleled," she said. "She is an amazing and insightful person."

Valuables vulnerable inside Robinson Center
By Laura Roddy
iroddy@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Students might want to lock up their valuables when they decide to play a pickup game of basketball or work out in the fitness room at Robinson Center.
This academic year, there have been 18 offenses reported involving theft of unattended property or theft of property from lockers at Robinson Center, according to data from the KU Public Safety Office.
Sgt. Chris Keary recommended students keep their property with them
at all times. He also recommended students not bring valuables to Robinson.
The biggest problem at Robinson involves students playing pickup games and leaving their wallets and IDs unattended against the wall, Kearysaid.
Keary said there had been a number of reports of thefts outside the racquetball courts but that the number had declined.
"They're playing basketball, and their attention is not on their wallets," he said. "Tall comes down to not leaving your property unattended."
He said the decline might be attribused to students either not reporting thefts or leaving their valuables at home. He also said the thefts might not be happening as frequently.
Louis Woods, a safety and security supervisor at Robinson, said students frequently left their backpacks and bags unattended, especially outside the weight room, the basketball courts and the raucquetball courts.
Kearay said students should use the lockers next to the courts or should keep their property in a corner inside the courts.
He said students could use Robinson's lockers for free. However, if lockers do not remove their locks each

STOP COMPLAINING THAT YOU'RE NOT AN ASIAN COUNTRY IN TROUBLE. THE GOVERNMENT ISN'T GOING TO SEND YOU AN AID REFUND!
CHICAGO TRIBUNE

Homosexuals deserve equal rights should be able to marry in Kansas
Just because some people are homosexual does not mean they should be denied the legal rights of heterosexuals. Homosexual Kansas residents are prohibited from marrying only because of Kansas Statute 23-101.
However, homosexuals deserve the same laws as heterosexuals. The Kansas Legislature should legalize same-sex marriages.
Article one of Statute 23-101 states that the civil contract of marriage is lawful only between two parties of the opposite sex. This means that homosexual couples cannot share the same tax credit, or even the legal partnership that a heterosexual couple can. Such legislation is an atrocity in what is supposed to be the land of the free.
As adults, heterosexuals and homosexuals have the capability of deciding with whom they want to spend
Marriage is not dependent on people of the opposite sex, but on mutual love
their lives. It is not the government's place to determine whether one's sexual preference is right or wrong. The government also has no reason to not allow a marriage between people who are in love. Still, homosexual relationships in Kansas are not recognized in a legal sense and rarely recognized in a social sense.
Nevertheless, the state legislature revised the statute in 1996, which makes it impossible for a homosexual couple to marry in Kansas. Mary Feeney, attorney general, said that because the statute was implemented so recently, the
likelihood of legalizing some sex marriages in the coming years was slim.
However, Marvin Decker, Pittsburgh junior and officer for Queers & Allies, said that homosexuals are closer to winning the battle of discrimination than ever before. He also thinks that the conservative history of the United States and of Kansas was a difficult trend for homosexuals to break. He hopes that one day he will be able to live freely and have the ability to marry whomever he wants.
The government has no place to legislate morality. The Legislature should give its constituents equal rights and legalize same-sex marriages. Write the Legislature and stand up for homosexual rights. They deserve to be treated the same as heterosexuals, and they need your help.

University aids Asian students
Since economic difficulties arose in Asia, some Asian students at the University of Kansas have had to worry about how to pay the next tuition or housing bill. Although the problem is affecting Asian students at universities around the nation, administrative offices at the University have done a good job supporting KU students and offering solutions.
The problems the students face are unique to international students. The immigration service requires students to take at least 12 hours and work no more than 20 hours while class is in session. Students cannot cut down on their hours and work more to stay in school.
Meetings for the Asian Economic
University's efforts to help students affected by Asian economic crisis commendable
Crisis Task Force begin today. The task force includes representatives from the offices of the comptroller and registrar, student housing, International Student Services and international students. Although the situation is largely uncharted territory, the task force wants to cope with problems, mostly of an economic nature, on an individual bases. The task force will uncover financial resources helpful to students and recommend these resources to the administration.
Chancellor Robert Hemenway offered to find jobs for students who needed them. Jeff Weinberg, assistant to the Chancellor, said that no students had come to the office yet. Students also can enroll in a plan allowing tuition to be paid in four installments rather than one lump sum. International Student Services is in the process of surveying students to assess their economic and employment situations.
It would be easier for the University's agencies to look the other way and leave the burden of deciding how to fund an education at the University to the students and their families. Provided limited experience in the situation, the University has made a valiant effort on behalf of the students affected.

Perspective
Rape victim tells about life-changing experience
Because of the sensitive nature of this column, the guest writer asked that her name be withheld. It is her hope that this column will help others.
Most people have heard stories or seen trials, but no one can understand what rape can do to someone until it has happened to them. I know, because it happened to me. Rape changed my life.
The other day I was on Wescoe Beach waiting to go to class, and two guys sitting behind me were crudely discussing sex. Somehow they started talking about rape. Laughingly one of the said, "There's no such thing as date rape. The girl always asks for it."
My heart dropped, and I'm certain I lost all color. I used to think the same the thing. I thought that if a girl was on a date she surely would know the guy well enough to control the situation. She wouldn't be in a dark alley with some stranger, but on a date with a friend. Boys will be boys, I thought, and the girl just has to expect certain things and sa no.
But I was wrong and so were those two guvs.
I had graduated from high school less than two months earlier. I had turned in my cheerleading uniform, taken off my letter jacket, handed the high school newspaper to the new editor and given up my seat on Student Council to a new, bright face. I was ready to leave the small town of 7,000 people and head for a college where the total enrollment was four times my town's population. My high-school sweetheart and I were taking a break in our relationship after 3 1/2 years, so we could be free at our different colleges.
That summer, I met Nathan. He was a football player at a nearby college, and I was thrilled to meet him. He was great. He wanted me to meet his big, Catholic family and watch him play football. He wanted to have fun. It was even more fun for me because I was being independent. I had not told anyone, not even my family about him except for my best friend. I thought it would be just a summer thing and then I would go to college and forget about him.
I made plans with Nathan for the Fourth of July and went to a barbecue at his friend's house. I was having so much fun — I met the entire football team and hardly wait for the fireworks. At about 8 p.m. Nathan and I went back to his house so that I could grab a jacket, and the
mood changed.
Nathan said he wanted to stay home a while because he was kind of tired. I sensed something was up, and said I would meet him at the party so that he could take a quick nap. He said no and started walking toward me. I backed away until I hit the wall, and then he had me trapped. He asked me what my hurry was and why I didn't want to stay for a while.
I can remember every word he said to me. He asked me why I was still a virgin. He said we would be a cute couple. I was a cheerleader and he was a football player — it was just like TV, he said. I tried to laugh him off. I tried to squirm out of his arms. This whole time I had been edging back into the hallway, and finally there was nowhere else to go. We were at the end. There were two walls on either side of me, Nathan in front and a bathroom behind. That's when I lost any control of the situation and so did Nathan. His eyes were screaming. He knew what he wanted and was going to get it at any cost.
When those guys on Wescoe Beach said the word rape, I could feel my head crashing down on the bathtub. I could taste the blood in my mouth. I could hear the tearing of clothes, my screaming and Nathan's breathing. I remembered vividly what it felt like to have his hands on me, the cold tile and his dripping sweat. I left that house a different person — dirty and ashamed. Nathan took part of me and it hurt. I cried the whole drive home, and when I finally got there I turned around, too ashamed of what I thought I had let happen to go inside my house. How could I explain after keeping such a big secret, my relationship with Nathan, from my family? I went to my best friend's house, and told her the whole story. I thought that this was somehow my fault, and as we sat there crying, I asked her what I had done to make Nathan do this to me.
Seven months later I still was asking that question every day. But thanks to those men at Wescoe, I know the answer. I did nothing to make this happen. I said no, I screamed no, I kicked no, and I meant no with every fiber of my being. Every day of my life I think about that night. I'm engaged now, and sometimes I shudder at my fiance's touch, and he doesn't know why. I cry in my sleep, and no one knows why. I didn't ask for it, but raped changed my life.

When you go car hunting be ready to pull a big gun
But I kept my eyes peeled.
I wasn't going to let any slick salesman pull the wool over my eyes, no siree.
That was my first mistake. I was feeling independent, so I went shopping without my father. The dealers thought they had a sure deal the second they spotted a young, unassuming blond woman pull into the lot. I swear I heard a salesman say, "I can win this one with one hand tied behind my back."
Sarah Chadwick
opinionokansan.com
In the latest war of car salesmen vs. the average citizen, an average citizen won out. But not before a long, drawn-out fight. I went into battle three weeks ago without so much as a weapon.
I picked out a couple of nice cars and asked to take them for a spin. Not that I had much of a choice, but herein lies my next mistake. I gave the guy at the dealership my driver's license to photocopy before he would allow me to take the car off the lot. In doing so, I unwittingly gave him access to my full address. This allows the dealers to begin the endless bombardment of direct sales mailings, full of every slick attempt to get you back on the lot — assuming you leave the battlefield alive.
The series of battles dragged on for a few days while I staked out enemy territories. Then came the real brawl. I decided on a car. I hagled for mercy with the enemy. We came to a compromise. He put it in ink. I came back the next day to pick up my prize, this time bringing my father to show him the trophy. The dealer met me on the battlefield for the real showdown.
"We can't give you both rebates at once on this car," he drawled. "You have to pick one or the other."
This, he said, after I already had the deal in writing and the check had been written.
That's when my father and I, as well as the salesman, knew it was time for the shoot-out. The words flew like bullets but to no avail. We couldn't take out the enemy. He wouldn't back down. Steam escaped my ears and a few words shot out of my mouth that I'm not sure I've used before.
Near sundown, after hours of verbal assault, persuasion and coaxing, our enemy conceded. The war was over. I swaggered off the lot. After all, I had won the west.

Death Penalty story forgets about victim
Disgust and outrage are the two feelings that came to mind as I read last Thursday's article about the death penalty. The latest instance of a Kansan reporter omitting important facts. Carrie Williams, Parsons High School 1993 co-homecoming queen, was a good friend to me and many others including Parsons' students at the University of Kansas and had one of the prettiest smiles ever seen. She was the victim, and she has a name, although it seems that such things aren't important enough for the Kansan to mention. Instead, two pages are dedicated to glorify her killer, a repeat assault and sex offender, with an ominous fictional account of the last 20 minutes of his life. How about a real account of Carrie's last 20 minutes? A man she barely recognizes as someone who lives in a nearby apartment breaks into
Jared Grillot Parsons senior
KU students don't represent all people
her apartment. He beats her bloody, ties her up, rapes her, then stabs her to death and leaves. Kind of makes the dark, forebinding account of Kleypa's last walk a little less effective, doesn't it? I am not here to promote or condemn the death penalty, but by not even bothering to mention Carrie's name, referring to her as a Pittsburgh State University student, you disrespect Carrie and insult her family and friends.
In a column on Tuesday, April 21, Jenny Oakson said: "Our generation has no reason to hold a protest, but it has all the right outfits for one." First of all, those of us at KU are not the whole of our generation, and many of those in America that are 18-23 only have one outfit, and no home. Others are serving 30 year jail sentences for selling LSD while cops get off for beating Rodney King. Many members of our generation live in the Third World: Compton, Detroit, Norfolk, Va., and Baltimore come to mind.
To speak of a bunch of mostly middle class white kids as our generation is a horrible misrepresentation of our society. More 19-22 year old African-American men are in prison than in college: these, too, are members of our generation that likely would have been in college if our parents hadn't abandoned them in the white suburban flight. This is to say nothing of those kids in Garden City who may never know the world as "our generation" knows it.
To speak of your graduating class as representative of your generation speaks volumes to me of our degeneration as a society, and I and those like me will continue to protest that.

Doctor helps erase disaster scars

Long after the physical effects of disasters, such as tornadoes, hurricanes or bombings, have disappeared, mental
scars remain.

Eric Vernberg, associate director for the University's clinical
child psychology program, serves on a national committee that tries to improve the response to such traumas, particularly by helping children.
"It's not just the acute phase of disasters that's difficult for people." Vernberg said. "It's the sort of long-mess that people have to deal with and all the hassles of rebuilding."
Vernberg is one of six people who serve on the Disaster Resolution Implementation Steering Committee for the American Psychological Association.
Michael Roberts, director of the University's clinical child psychology program, said Vernberg brought prestige and activity to the University.
"Dr. Vernberg is one of the national experts on psychological effects on children and families from natural and human-made disasters," Roberts said. "His material is widely respected and utilized."
Vernberg has served on the disaster committee for two years and has helped to improve the response to
traumas such as shootings, tornadoes, floods, earthquake, residential fires, school bus accidents, airplane crashes and bombings.
vernberg saw firsthand the damage caused by Hurricane Andrew in 1992, when he was working at the University of Miami. He helped children who were affected by the disaster and misplaced from their homes.
"You had 150,000 to 175,000 people whose homes were destroyed, so there were 90,000 kids who had been chased out of their homes." VernBERd said.
"They were upset by how much the familiar aspects of the environment had been changed," Vernberg said.
He said that many of the children suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder and were disturbed by such things as losing their pets, their possessions or their favorite trees.
Vernberg has developed several post-disaster counseling manuals that help children better understand and deal with their feelings after a traumatic event. The manuals include exercises that help children identify their fears by writing or drawing pictures.
One of Vernberg's counseling manuals was distributed after the Oklahoma City bombing and another was translated into Japanese and used following the 1995 earthquake in Kobe, Japan.
In addition to his work nationally, Vernberg teaches undergraduate and graduate courses at the University.
"He's really the epitome of what a good professor at a University should be," Roberts said.
Faculty, staff earn honors for dedication

In 1953, a flannel-lined denim jacket sold for $6.98. Phoen Allens basketball team upset top-ranked Kansas State University at Hoch Auditorium and Chancellor Franklin Murphy announced plans for a new music and drama building.
It also was the year that Robert Umholtz began working at the University.
Unholtz, an associate professor of engineering, was honored for 45 years of service yesterday, along with 662 other faculty and staff members at the 24th annual Employee Recognition Ceremony.
More than 650 people attended the ceremony, and a reception at the Kansas Union Ballroom.
Employees who have worked from five to 45 years at the University were given awards and recognition from Chancellor Robert Hemenway and Provost David Shulenburger. The employees of the year also were announced.
"It's a beautiful day," Hemenway said. "It's an appropriate day to be honoring beautiful people."
Hemenway said that those who contributed long periods of service to the University shared the responsibility of making a better world.
"Working at a University is one of the most noble enterprises in this society," Hemenway said. "You, as a
person who works at a University, have an opportunity to see what a glorious thing human beings are."
Shulenburger agreed that the dedication of employees was vital to the success of the University.
"The University doesn't say 'thank you' enough." Shulenburger said. "The minimum they deserve is a public acknowledgement and thank you. If we didn't have a good, solid core of people who stay here a long time, we just couldn't do the work we do."
Shari Hagen, graphic designer for the department of biological sciences, was honored for 35 years of work at the University. She said the ceremony was an important way to show appreciation for employees.
"Lots of us aren't recognized in our daily jobs," Hagen said. "It's a big plus for us to be honored."
All employees who were honored received a service pin, and those who had worked 20 years or more received a gift.
Carol Anderson, office specialist in the history of art department, was named the employee of the year in the classified employee category, and Barbara Armbrister, director of corporate operations at the Center for Research Inc., was named employee of the year in the unclassified, non-teaching category.
Anderson said, "The people in my department are wonderful and very appreciative all the time. It's nice to be recognized."

SUA speaker informs crowd of global issues

Charles Benjamin wants University of Kansas students to get involved in environmental issues after they leave school.
Benjamin, legislative coordinator for the Kansas Natural Resources Council, spoke to about 20 people yesterday afternoon in front of the Kansas Union. He talked about current issues in Kansas and how students could get — and stay — involved. The speech was sponsored by Student Union Activities and the Kansas and Burge Unions. Benjamin was paid $300.
Benjamin said students should start by getting an education but also should try to remain active after graduation.
"I would encourage you, as students, as you think about your careers, that you continue to remain aware of how your
everyday life is impacted by what you and others around you do, and how you can enter the policy process," Benjamin said.
Benjamin said that even if people did not choose an environmental career, there was plenty of opportunity to influence public policy, especially at the local level.
"I was a county commissioner for 16 years in Newton in Harvey county," Benjamin said. "We did a lot of things that affected the environment."
Benjamin said local politicians had great influence on local environmental issues, which were as important as global issues.
"There are some very important issues right here at home that affect you and the water you drink and the food you eat," he said.
Benjamin focused on water-quality issues surrounding the human and animal waste entering the Kansas River. Despite progress during the last 25 years, there still are problems, Benjamin said. One problem is the damage hog farms create for the environment.
"Pigs poop," Benjamin said. "And pig poop stinks. And pigs produce a lot of it. It's flushed into these lagoons. A lot of that gets applied to nearby fields and ends up in our surface water."
"Iwould encourage you, as students, as you think about your careers, that you continue to remain aware of how your everyday life is impacted by what you and others around you do, and how you can enter the policy process."
Charles Benjamin Legislative Coordinator
Benjamin said everyone, including environmentalists, farmers and future policymakers in the audience, needs to work together to come up with compromise solutions.
Diane Brown, Tucson, Ariz., graduate student, was impressed by Benjamin's ability to link so many issues to everyday life.
Anytime people are made aware of how harmful some of these issues can be, it motivates you to get involved, she said.
University may get Internet2 connection
By Aaron Knopf
aknopf@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The University of Kansas might be among the first universities in the country to connect to Abilene, a high-speed national data network that will link several institutions in the Internet2 consortium.
Internet2 is a project to link research institutions nationwide via high-speed, highbandwidth networking.
Qwest Communications International Inc., Cisco Systems and Nortel will provide the technology for Abilene. Qwest already had been selected to provide the circuits for the Great Plains Network, a data network that would connect Arkansas, Kansas, Nebraska, North Dakota, Oklahoma and South Dakota.
Abilene provides Internet2 institutions with an alternative to using the high-speed Backbone Network Service, commonly referred to as the vBNS, for connectivity. The vBNS, run by MCI and the National Science Foundation, had been the only national data network with enough bandwidth for Internet2 traffic.
Jerry Niebaum, director of Academic Computing Services, said Internet2 consortium members on the Great Plains Network, including the University, could be some of the first to use Abilene because of the pre-existing relationship with Qwest.
Previously, Internet2 members had to receive a connections grant from the National Science Foundation to use the vBNS.
"Now, the rules have changed," Niebaum said. "You no longer have to get permission, but you do have to be a member of Internet2."
Requirements for colleges and universities to become regular members of the Internet2 consortium are $25,000 per year and the approval of the University
Corporation for Advanced Internet Development, the company that oversees Internet2 endeavors.
Niebaum said the University learned that it had been awarded a vBNS grant before the Abilene announcement. He said the money that would have been used for paying to connect to the vBNS instead could be used for paying to connect to Abilene.
Because the University already is working with Qwest through the Great Plains Network, Niebaum said that connecting to Abilene instead of the vBNS might save the University as much as $250,000 a year.
"We will not have to pay a high connectivity fee because we're co-located in their switching system in K.C.," Niebaum said.
The Great Plains Network had planned to connect to the vBNS in September 1998. Niebaum said Qwest had said Abilene would be ready by January 1999.
Michael Grobe, distributed computer manager for Academic Computing Services, said Abilene could bring the high-speed power of Internet2 to many more institutions.
"To get a vBNS grant, you have to be involved in high visibility research," Grobe said. "Now, all you need is money in your pocket."
The downside of having more people use Internet2 is that it becomes more difficult to manage quality of service, a key goal of the Internet2 project. Grobe said.
Quality of service means that a user who needs a dedicated amount of bandwidth to run a certain application on the network for a given period of time is guaranteed that the bandwidth will be available.
"It could easily be argued that the quality of service dreams that UCAID started with were just that—unrealistic dreams," Grobe said.

Students help stock area plasma and blood banks
By Ronnie Wachter
wachter@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
As the majority of University of Kansas students prepare to leave Lawrence for summer break, area blood banks say that blood and plasma supplies will not face a shortage.
There is a lot of spare blood in Lawrence.
"It would take a serious catastrophe for us to use up the blood we have on hand," said Belinda Remher, public relations assistant for Lawrence Memorial Hospital, 325 Maine St.
Janice Early-Weas, director of community relations for the hospital, said that when too much blood was sucked out of the hospital's system, it turned to Kansas Blood Services, 535 Gateway Drive, for a fresh supply.
"They can have blood here in less than 45 minutes if there's a real extreme need," she said.
Adrianne Evans, director of community relations and recruiting for Kansas Blood Services, said it got a large amount of its
"We do at least one blood drive each semester, working with the Athletics Department," Evans said. "They felt that it was important that the students get involved in the community."
Evans said the next on-campus blood drive would be from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. tomorrow at Green Hall.
Many KU students are accustomed to donating vital fluids. John Orcutt, Hutchinson junior, said he sold plasma on a regular basis to NABI Biomedical, 816 W. 24th St.
Evans said that campus blood drives were important to the Kansas Blood Services because of its reliance on donations.
"We don't pay our donors because (paying) is not a common practice," she said. "Blood banks across the country are usually voluntary."
donations from KU students.
"I use that when I need money," Orcutt said. "I think it's a pretty popular place with students."

Evans said that all donated blood was checked for sexually transmitted diseases and signs of drug abuse.

Local woman rides for life, lungs

Hao Nguyen wants everyone to hold their breath.

"Hold your breath for sixty seconds," it reads. "Now, try to breath from the attached coffee stirrer."
Nguyen uses the stirrer to show what breathing is like for people with respiratory problems.
The 28-year-old Lawrence resident is trying to raise $6,000 for the 1998 GTE Big Ride, which is sponsored by the American Lung Association. The ride begins June 15 in Seattle and ends August 1 in Washington, D.C. The ride will span 3,000 miles across the United States
Ngueny said the fund-raising was the hardest part of the ride.
Nguyen said she was inspired to do the ride because it combines two of her passions: mountain biking and helping people. The bike ride is motivating Nguyen to challenge herself physically, but in more ways that one. She recently quit smoking for the race.
"You can always push yourself physically so much more than you can mentally," she said.
"This ride is a kind of a break-me thing," she said. "I knew if I was going to be serious about this, I would have to quit."
Nguyen rides about 200 miles a week and wants to work up to 400
miles before the ride begins.
Although the fund-raising has generated $3.000 so far, there has been a complication. Nguyen said her bicycle was stolen two weeks ago.
"After my bike was stolen, I wanted to quit," she said. "But people have been really supportive of me and have even offered to lend their bikes to me to train."
Nguyen started training and fund-raising in January. She said one aspect that encouraged her to do the ride was that most of the money she raised would be returned to local ALA chapters.
"Fifty to sixty cents of every dollar goes to the local chapter," she said. "Typically, charities only return about twenty cents on the dollar."
Nguyen is working three jobs to raise enough money for the ride. She also is asking for donations from local residents and businesses. She said several downtown businesses had donated to the benefit and have even come up with innovative ways to raise funds.
"I asked for a donation from Milton's, and they threw out the idea to do a benefit dinner," she said.
Jean Lewis, co-owner of Milton's Coffee and Wine, 920 Massachusetts St., said the restaurant wanted to help Nguyen. They decided to hold a benefit dinner April 13 to raise money for the event.
"The turnout was great," Lewis said. "We raised several hundred dollars for the ride."

WASHINGTON — One of five Americans do not know or are not sure Jews were killed in the Holocaust or that it happened in World War II, according to a survey commissioned by a museum dedicated to telling the story of Holocaust victims.
But the Holocaust Memorial Museum took heart yesterday in findings that showed a large majority of Americans wanted to learn more about Nazi Germany's murderous campaign in hopes of preventing future genocide.
Eighty percent picked the Holocaust as one of history's most important lessons, behind the American Revolution and ahead of Native Americans' struggles, the civil rights movement, the Vietnam War, slavery and the Cold War. And 66 percent wanted to know more about the Holocaust.
Holocaust Museum tests Americans
The Associated Press
"This history is still not over. It's still unfolding," said acting museum director Sara Bloomfield. "I think that makes the Holocaust very relevant to Americans, especially when there's present-day genocide in Bosnia and Rwanda."
Bloomfield said, "Most Americans recognized that the Holocaust is not just a tale about what the Nazis did
to Jews, but it is about what some human beings did to other human beings. There is a lesson for everyone in that."
According to the Holocaust poll: Twenty-one percent did not know or were not sure whether Jews were murdered in gas chambers, although the Nazis exterminated 6 million.
—Nineteen percent answered false when asked whether the Holocaust took place during World War II; another 19 percent were not sure.
—Asked why it is important to

study the Holocaust, answers included to prevent another Holocaust, to understand the dangers of persecution and hatred and to learn potential consequences of abuse of power.
The national telephone survey of 1,641 adults was conducted Nov. 10-15 by Peter D. Hart Research Associates. It has a margin of error of plus or minus 2.5 percentage points.
The museum commissioned the survey as it marks its five-year anniversary this month. So far, it has received 10 million visitors.
Counselors can help in crisis situations

Kansas staff writer
Pollster Debbie Klingender said the museum wanted to test people's knowledge and interest.
A University of Kansas service that many students know little about is the Counseling and Psychological Service stress intervention program.
when tragedy strikes, program counselors help students deal with grief, both on an individual and group basis.
Last month, third-floor residents of McCollum Hall returned from spring break to learn that Heather Norris, Ballin, Mo., freshman and a resident of their floor, was fatally injured in a vehicle accident March 24.
Kate McGee, Loveland, Colo., junior and a resident assistant on the third floor, said a meeting was called March 29 to talk about what had happened.
"It was really tough," McGee said. "No one really said a whole lot at the meeting. Everyone was in shock."
Frank DeSalvo, psychologist and program director, spoke to the group in Collom.
"Frank told us what to expect in the grieving process," McGee said. "It was very helpful for the resident assistants to have him come and talk to everyone. We have a tough enough time dealing with this as friends who have lost a friend, let alone as resident assistants."
In any crisis, the people who are involved directly often have friends who cluster around, said Jim Kreider, a program counselor.
"But many other people are touched, too, whether they observed the crisis situation or whether they just knew somebody who was involved, or even if they just read about it in the newspaper." Kreider said.
These people, too, may need help in dealing with grief, he said.
"It's troubling to hear about tragedies that happen in life — the type of thing where you feel it only happens to other people
— not to people you know, "Kreider said. "But then here it is, right in your neighborhood, a

roommate or somebody on your floor. It's unexpected."
Research has shown it is important for crisis intervention to begin within 24 to 48 hours after the event. Kreider said.
Both long-term and short-term psychological and physiological effects of grief are reduced when people have an outlet for talking about it. Kreider said.
Program counselors also responded when Lisa Rosel, Overland Park freshman, was fatally injured March 31 after being struck by a vehicle.
Jennifer Wamelink, complex director for Gertrude Sellars Pearson-Corbin Hall, said program counselors came to the residence hall twice, first during the evening after Rosel died and again four days later. Both times they spent about two hours talking to the residents.
"I think it just helped for people to be able to communicate their feelings with others who are feeling the same way and to be able to vent and to get some of the emotions out," Wamelink said. "In talking to the counselors, the residents learned that what they were feeling was normal and that everyone goes through the grieving process in their own way."
New ThinPrep Pap Test more expensive but more reliable
Procedure offers better sensitivity in finding cancer
By Lisa Stevens John
John@kansas.com
Kansan staff writer
A woman can have cervical cancer and not even know it, said a University of Kansas Medical Center physician.
The traditional Pap test is the leading tool for detecting cervical cancer, but the new ThinPrep Pap Test, is even better, said Patricia Thomas, physician and pathologist.
"If they don't have Pap smears and regular gynecological examinations, cancer of the cervix might not be detected until it's too late." Thomas said. "You can imagine—if a baby can fit through the cervix.
something can grow really quite big before you notice it."
Since the invention of the Pap test 50 years ago, the number of deaths from cervical cancer in the United States has dropped from 35,000 a year to less than 5,000 a year.
"I think the conventional Pap test is an excellent test," Thomas said. "But the ThinPrep Pap Test seems to have an increased sensitivity in picking up abnormalities."
"But rather than smearing a small portion of the cells onto a slide, the collection device is rinsed in a vial of preservative solution and then sent to a lab where an instrument filters the specimen to remove blood, mucous and inflammation and applies a thin layer of cells to a microscope slide." Thomas said.
With the ThinPrep test, the physician collects the cervical cells in the usual manner. Thomas said.
The result is that that abnormal

cells are easier to spot, said Marilee Means, Ph.D., a cytotechnologist and the director of the Med Center's cytotechnology program. The program trains technicians to detect early signs of cancer and other disease.
"So the ThinPrep makes a big difference for us when we look through the microscope," Means said. "With this test, because you

can see all of the cells, the abnormal cells, even if they are few in number, seem to pop right up at you."
The FDA approved the ThinPrep test in 1996, replacing the traditional Pap test. The Med Center will begin using the test May 1.
Randall Rock, physician and chief of staff at Watkins Memorial Health Center, said at this time, the clinic was using the traditional Pentest.
Thomas said the cost of the Thin-
Prep test at the Med Center would be about $40, at least twice as high as a traditional Pap test.
Means agreed the cost would be greater.
"But it's well worth the extra cost. Generally speaking, you don't go to sleep one day with perfectly normal cells and wake up the next day with cancer," Means said. "Your cells go through stages of precursor lesions. If we can catch and treat those lesions, nobody ever has to get cervical cancer."

Hackers crack security code at Pentagon, steal software
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — In what one security expert said may be the most serious intrusion to date, computer hackers have broken into a Pentagon network, stolen software for a military satellite system and threatened to sell it to terrorists.
The hackers, who call themselves "Masters of Downloading/2016216," claim to have broken into the system in October but waited until last week to contact security expert John Vranesevich and tell him about it.
however, Gideon Samid, a computer security expert who has done work for the Pentagon, cautioned that most intrusions tend to be far worse than the government acknowledges.
The stolen software coordinates the military's Global Positioning System, which is used to target missiles and enables troops to pinpoint their positions with extreme accuracy. The system uses dozens of satellites and has been a key component of the U.S. military since the Gulf War.
Defense Department representative Susan Hansen said the Pentagon's Defense Information Systems Agency was looking into the matter. She said the stolen software does not contain classified
information.
Vranesevich said the intrusion could be one of the most serious break-ins of a government network to date. Vranesevich recently was involved in tracking the Israeli hacker known as "Analyzer," who broke into Pentagon computer systems in February.
thenett should concern people, said Vranesevich, who interviewed the hackers on his Web site. "Most hacks fall into one category: when a group of kids do the cyberspace equivalent of graffiti. This group is in a whole different category."
Vranesevich interviewed the hackers via Internet chat and email. The Defense Department confirmed the software the hackers have was genuine. It was during these interviews that members of the group said they might sell the information.
"Most hacks fall into one category: when a group of kids do the cyberspace equivalent of graffiti. This group is in a whole different category."
John Vranesevich
Security expert
"The information is very dangerous in the wrong hands," one of the hackers said.
"I think international terrorist groups would be interested in the data we could gain access to," wrote one member. "Governments would buy it for intelligence purposes."
Vransevich said members of the group range in age from 19 to 28, which makes them older than the average hacker. The group claims to have 15 members — eight in the United States, five in Britain and two in Russia.

Grossberg, then a freshman art student at the University of Delaware, and her boyfriend Brian Peterson, also 19, both initially were charged with first-degree murder in their baby's death in November 1996. Prosecutors had suggested they might seek the death penalty.
The plea agreement with Grossberg was reached after her lawyers saw a transcript of an interview Peterson had with prosecutors, The (Wilmington) Neus Journal reported Tuesday. Sources told the newspaper the boy was blue at delivery, and Peterson thought he was dead.
"He said the baby was blue and Grossberg was yelling, 'Get rid of it! Get rid of it!"' a source said. Peterson and Grossberg, both from the affluent suburb of
Ywckoff, N.J., had contended the baby was stillborn. State coroners said the boy was born alive at full term and died of multiple skull fractures caused by blunt trauma and shaking.
Grossberg was to go on trial next month on charges that included second-degree murder. If convicted, she could have faced up to life in prison.
Manslaughter carries a maximum penalty of 10 years. Under sentencing guidelines, Grossberg and Peterson could get 2 1/2 years each.
Both are free on bonds of $300, 000 each. Sentencing for Grossberg was set for July 9.
After giving birth, Grossberg returned to her dorm. It was when she was hospitalized for apparent complications that authorities learned a baby was missing. Grossberg told authorities that Peterson had helped her.

Softball team to honor seniors

Kansan sportswriter
When the Kansas softball team takes the field Saturday against Missouri, the Jayhawks will honor six seniors for their leadership in a season that has been marked by unaccomplished goals.
The Jayhawks began the season ranked ninth but lost 31 games and fell out of the top 25. At 26-31, this Kansas team is in danger of becoming only the second team
in school history to post a record below 500
But the seniors have readjusted their goals and have focused on winning the conference tournament and receiving a bid for regionalals.
PENGAMINAN
"There been a lot of frustration this season," said senior third baseman Sarah McCann. "But we played really close

games against some good teams, and if we just would have gotten one key hit, they could have been different."
McCann, who began playing T-ball at age four, played for the Blaze, a traveling team from Johnson County, during summers in high school.
When she was 14, her team won a regional tournament by defeating eight consecutive teams and earned a trip to
nationals. That year was just one of three years the Blaze qualified for nationals.
McCann was recruited by former Kansas coach Kalum Haack when she was a junior. When Haack left to coach at Alabama, Coach Tracy Bunge took over, and McCann credits Bunge with enabling her to graduate in May.
"Last semester. I

had to take a lot of hours, and she's the reason I'm graduating on time," McCann said. "She would let me make up practices if I had too much to do. She means school first."
After recovering from shoulder surgery in the off-season, McCann has come back to resume her title as the Jayhawks' most productive lead-off hitter, with a career batting average of .268.
After she graduates in May with a degree in education, McCann will begin student teaching next year in the Kansas City area. McCann, who describes herself as a relaxed player, said she would miss
the friendships from her softball days.
"It's a fun and a funny team," McCann said. "We laugh a lot."
Senior right fielder Jen Funkhouser said that the team members' friendships were a blessing because not all teams enjoyed such closeness.
Funkhouser, who was born and raised in California, began playing softball in the fourth grade. She played softball with her twin sister, Jamie, for several years, and after high school, they both chose to play at Palomar Junior College in California.
After Funkhouser gave a verbal commitment to Kansas, Nebraska called Palamar's coach looking for an outfielder. Her twin sister fit the bill, and the sisters became rivals for the first time.
"My sister is the greatest influencial person in my life because she's my best friend," Funkhouser said. "We're a lot alike, but she's more outgoing, and she talks more."
Funkhouser, who has a. 192 career batting average, said she just tried to help the team offensively with little base hits.
"I'm not a power hitter," she said with a laugh.
But that comment was contradictory to her performance Tuesday in a doubleheader against Southwest Missouri State. Funkhouser knocked out two home runs, the game-winner in the second game. "Funky," as her teammates call her, has hit all three of the homers in her career this season.
"Hitting a home run is my biggest athletic thrill because it doesn't happen very often. "she said.
By contrast, left fielder Sara Holland is known for her power.
After hitting her 14th career homer against McNeese State earlier this season, Holland is just one home run away from tying the Kansas career home run record.
With a career batting average of .337, she has established herself as one of the Jayhawks' top offensive players.
Holland leads the Jayhawks in career atbats, hits, runs and stolen bases. She credits her success to her determination.
Coming from a strong high school softball program in Bixby, Okla., Holland made official visits to Kansas, Ball State, Utah and Oklahoma State.
"I wanted to play at a Division 1 school, and KU had a strong academic program and a good team," Holland said.
After she graduates in December, Holland will be a graduate assistant coach while she seeks a master's degree in sports psychology.
Holland said her senior season has made her a stronger player and although the Jayhawks have fallen short of many of their goals, she has learned some important lessons.
tam lessons. "I try not to compare this season to other years," Holland said. "It's made me a stronger person because we set goals that haven't been met, but we're still after it. I truly believe success isn't all determined by wins and losses."

As they focus on the games against Missouri, the Jayhawks are set to stage a late season charge for a shot at regional play.

Baseball team bobbles ball late in game against Texas
By John Blakely Wilson
Kansan sportswriter
It seemed as if things could not get any worse for the Kansas baseball team.
The Jayhawks entered the top of the 10th inning against Texas last night with three last inning losses in six days.
With a 4-3 lead against the Longhorns in Austin, things got worse. Texas third baseman Brian Ivy singled off reliever Kansas Chris Williams and drove home first baseman Shawn Schumacher.
Make that four losses in seven days and 13 losses in 15 games.
Starting pitcher Rusty Philbrick had his second consecutive strong outing, allowing just three runs in nine innings. Philbrick was untouchable after allowing the three runs in the third inning.
"We've had good pitching performances the past couple of days, but we couldn't get a win," said coach Bobby Randall. "We were due to win one, but we couldn't do it."
Randall took Philbrick out in the bottom of the 10th inning, but Williams retired just one batter, allowing three hits in that inning.
The Jayhawks did not commit an error in front of the 4,900 fans at Disch-Falk Field but dropped to a 5-16 record in conference with just six Big 12 games remaining.
Centerfielder Clint Wyrick continued to pound the ball with three hits, one of the hits a double, and two runs batted in. First baseman Randy Case was the other offensive bright spot for the Jayhawks, adding two hits and a run batted in.
Kansas will play another highly ranked school this weekend when Texas A&M comes to Hogland-Maupin Stadium. Game times will be at 7 p.m. on tomorrow, 2 p.m. on Saturday and 1 p.m. on Sunday.
The Jayhawks play a nonconference game against Kansas State Tuesday at Hoglund-Maupin and finish their Big 12 slate May 1-3 against the Wildcats in Manhattan.

"It's been three very long years, and I informed President Bowen months ago that I was going to begin学习 at other opportunities. Dr. Bowen and I have talked a lot about that. I'm on that schedule, and we've been working in that direction."

Teamwork is the key to your success this year. Start by making bold plans in May. Your decisions will have far-reaching consequences.
Aries: Today is a 5.
You tend to buy things just because you like them, without even looking at the cost. Today, an older woman will tell you not to do that and point out the best deals for your money. You're not usually interested in that sort of conversation, but this time you should listen.
Taurus: Today is an 8.
You're forceful and dynamic, and you are letting it be known what you want and need. That gives other people the opportunity to provide it, and some of them would love to do exactly that. By this evening, the shoe is on the other foot. You're going to have to please somebody else.
Gemini: Today is a 5.
Take advice from somebody who wants the best for you. It would be smart to ask for it in advance. Just walk right up to the person who wants to run your life and ask what to do next. You'll make a good impression, and you could get some very good advice.
Cancer: Today is an 8.
There's going to be a test tonight or tomorrow, and you're going to have to prove you know what you're talking about. If you don't have any experience, don't pretend that you do. The other person will see through it in a nanosecond.
Leo: Today is a 5.
This morning is an excellent time to buy gifts. There are several people in your life who have gone out of their way to help and have always applauded your performances and laughed at your jokes. You need to repay them for their generosity.

You continue to be in the spotlight. There have been decisions to make lately, and you've done an excellent job in steering your team through the changes. The person who's so crazy about you isn't wrong. You are awesome. And humble, to boot.

Libra: Today is a 5.
Scorpio: Today is an 8.
Capricorn: Today is an 8.
You're strongly attracted to a person who thinks you're marvelous. That's a lot of fun, but it could interfere with your duties. If you can take work home with you, you don't have a thing to worry about. You'll be in the mood to work late into the night.
Look for another busy day, with great rewards. A lot of those will be emotional, but some will be financial.

Your best time for taking on major challenges is first thing this morning. Don't put them off because they won't get any easier. Just the opposite is more likely Your intuition is good in the morning, too.
Your living environment is disrupted this morning, but in a pleasant way. The trouble isn't a lack of love, it's the abundance of it. This evening, however, your sweetheart won't be quite so snugly. He or she will more likely be in the mood for dancing. You'll just have to make the best of it.
Things seem to be going more slowly than you'd like. That’s OK. You needed time to think. Now you'll be assimilating information more quickly. By this evening, you'll start find the data you need to complete the task at hand. Proceed with caution and avoid an expensive mistake.
Pisces: Today is an 8.
You're strong, confident and good looking. Your intuition is excellent. You can figure out how to do just about anything you want. Now, what do you want? It's as if you're being granted three wishes, but these wishes will come true through your own imagination and hard work.
Gymnasts to make case for club status tonight
LION
SPORTS BRIEFS AND SCORES
The student-formed Sports Club Council will meet at 7 p.m. tonight to decide whether to recommend the proposed Kansas gymnastics club as an officially recognized club.
Club founders will read through their constitution and make a presentation to the council.
女
"I don't know of any problems we could run into except maybe the liability issue, since gymnastics is kind of high-risk," said Jenelle Diebold, the club's would-be president and Wichita junior.
According to the KU Club Sports Handbook, the University of Kansas would not be held liable for any injuries club members received during competitions or other club-sanctioned events.
The handbook encourages members to obtain personal health insurance.
The meeting will take place at 156 Robinson Center. The council will give its recommendation to Recreational Services, which will make the final decision.

LARAMIE, Wyo. — Steve McClain, hired last week as an assistant at Texas &M, was hired yesterday as basketball coach at Wyoming.
Rodney Fields (6-4), a guard who played with Holmes at Tyler last season, committed to Nebraska during the fall signing period.
Wyoming Athletics Director Lee Moon said McClain, 35, who had been an assistant at Texas Christian for four years, would replace Larry Shyatt, who left the Cowboys for Clemson.

"It's really been an emotional few days for our players, our fans and the people involved in Wyoming basketball," Moon said. "It's been a time of disappointment and anxiety. But it's now a time of anticipation and excitement. We have closed one chapter on Wyoming basketball, and today, we'll open a new chapter and move forward with great anticipation."
McClain, a 1984 graduate of Chadron (Neb.) State College, said he was looking forward to building on the accomplishments of Shyatt, who led the Cowboys to a 19-9 record and a berth in the NIT in his only season.

Jailed basketball player signs a letter of intent
Whitaker, once a national-caliber high school star, is expected to be released from Albemarle-Charlotteville (Va.) Regional Jail this fall, according to Mount St. Mary's Athletics Director Harold Menninger.
RALEIGH, N.C. — Melvin Whitaker, who has been in jail since 1996 for slashing a Virginia football player, has signed a letter of interest to play at Mount St. Mary's College in Emmitsburg, Md.
Whitaker slashed the face of Virginia defensive tackle Mauree Anderson with a box cutter during a pickup basketball game on March 5, 1996. Anderson received 75 stitches. Whitaker pleaded guilty to malicious wounding and was sentenced to 31/2 years in jail.
Menninger said he and coach Jim Phelan met with school officials before recruiting Whitaker.
SCORPIO
Whitaker decided to attend Mount St. Mary's because a former roommate's father knew the assistant coach there. Whitaker paid an unofficial visit to the school in 1995 and made a good impression then, Menninger said.
Meninger said the school was taking a chance on Whitaker but said it was not out of step with the institution's tradition. One of the school's most famous alumni is the Rev. Edward Flanagan, who founded Boys Town USA in 1917 in Omaha, Neb., he said.
He said because of that impression,
he thought giving Whitaker another
chance was the right thing to do.

Calif. transfer to visit Kansas
By Tommy Gallagher

Kansas sportwriter
Player could snag last scholarship
The Kansas men's basketball team is not done recruiting prospects during the late signing period.
Ashante Johnson, a 6-foot-9 swingman from Canada (Calif.) Junior College, recently told recruiting analyst Mike Sullivan that he would visit Kansas this weekend.
Johnson, who averaged 23 points and 14 rebounds last season, has visited Florida State, Xavier and Pepperdine. He talked with Kansas coach Roy Williams two weeks ago about a possible transfer.
me during our spring break. I had a nice time speaking with him."
"It's a matter of if I can come in and get some playing time," Johnson told Sullivan. "Getting my degree is important, too. Coach Williams came here and talked to
Johnson already has seen and played in Allen Field House. He played a high school all-star game in the field house after his senior season at Scripps Ranch High School in San Diego.
"I didn't see much of the campus, but I was in the field house," Johnson said.
Johnson said he would evaluate the schools after this visit and make a deci-
KU
sion by May 15, the last day of the signing period.
He said each school had distinct advantages.
"Pepperdine is an hour from where I am." Johnson said. "Also, I have relatives in Ohio. It will be hard for me to choose which will be best for me."
Johnson signed with Utah coming out of high school in 1995. He was a redshirt freshman, then
played behind former All-American Keith Van Horn the next season.
Frustrated because he wanted more playing time, Johnson transferred to Canada as a sophomore. He still has two years of eligibility.
His coach, Michael Legarz, tailed the Cincinnati Enquirer that Johnson was more of an offensive threat than he was a defensive stopper.
Canada was 28-4 last season and made the final four of the California junior college tournament, in which 160 teams participate. Johnson also was a first-team all-state selection.
"Ashante can shoot threes," Legarza said. "He can bounce the ball like a guard. Ashante's a lot more versatile and more of an offensive threat."
Kansas has signed four players this season, all guards. Johnson probably would play small forward, where the Jayhawks have only Nick Bradford.
The Jayhawks have one scholarship remaining, which was used by former walk-on Terry Nooner last season.
New coach fills legendary shoes
The Associated Press
LINCOLN, Neb. — Frank Solich waited 19 years to take over a college football team. He figured he could sit six more weeks to take over the coach's office at Nebraska.
Besides, nobody associated with
N Times
— least of all the new coach — was going to tell Tom Osborne to clean out his desk.
"I wanted Coach Osborne to use
Sound familiar
Now, it is Solich who occupies that big desk — with plenty to do, such as overseeing spring drills for a program that has won at least a share of the national title three of the last four seasons.
that office as long as he wanted. I wanted him to feel comfortable about coming up and getting his work done," Solich said. "I knew he was going to have tons of correspondence and other things to do."
Solich, who spent 19 years as an offensive assistant until Osborne retired after the Orange Bowl, will not make many big changes.
"We're going to run the ball, mix in some play-action passes and try to make sure we're a physical football team," Solich said.
They do not take wild chances at Nebraska, and Solich, who favors business suits, is a perfect conservative fit.
"You don't want to take the apple cart and just turn it upside down because this program has been successful the way we've been operating," he said, borrowing a popular Osborne mantra.
If anything, Solich is Osborne with a wider smile and — the new coach stands 5-foot-8 — about nine fewer vertical inches.
"Everybody misses Coach Osborne. We'd like to have him here, but then again I guess we'll move on," said Bobby Newcombe, sophomore quarterback. "We know Coach Solich is going to do a great job for us."
Osborne nominated Solich as his successor when he told university officials privately last August that he was ready to leave after 25 seasons. Continuity was key, and Solich bleeds Big Red.
As a 17-year-old in the fall of 1962, Solich threw his laundry into a car and left Cleveland for the plains of Nebraska, sight unseen. By 1965, he was an All-Big eight performer and a senior co-captain for Coach Bob Devaney.
"Back then, we used the fullback differently than it's used today." Solich said with a grin. "We had halfbacks who were 200-some pounds. The right halfback may be would lead through and block the linebacker, and the fullback would get the ball."
Sollicen shout 13 years as a coach at two Nebraska high schools, then rejoined the Cornhuskers in 1979 as freshman coach.
One difference in his new assignment became evident to Solich at the first spring practice. Standing on the playing surface at Memorial Stadium, he realized nobody had brought out a whistle.
He made his mark as running backs coach from 1983-97, recruiting and developing players like Jarvis Redwine, Andra Franklin, Roger Craig, Mike Rozier, Tom Rathman, Derek Brown, Calvin Jones, Lawrence Phillips and Ahman Green.
"Around here, that's the head coach's job." Sollic admitted.
Aside from an overlooked whistle, players, assistant coaches and support personnel said they had noticed little difference between the Osborne years and this spring practice.
"Coach Osborne and Coach Solich both walk around and study things," said Steve Warren, junior nose tackle. "If something's wrong, Coach Solich will tell you, just like Coach Osborne always did, but he doesn't scream or do anything different like that."
It is hard to imagine the unflappable Osborne screaming at his players. Typically, he would describe in measured tones how it takes an obstacle to accurately measure success. Solich knows the song.
"There's only one way to respond to a challenge, and that's to attack it," Solich said. "This is certainly going to be a challenge for me to run this program. The only thing I can do is attack it, go full speed ahead and look forward to it."

Golfer has surgery to repair shoulder
Norman out for season
The Associated Press
The disarming smile, shaggy blonde hair and aggressive flair of Greg Norman is gone from golf for the first time in more than 20 years after he had arthroscopic surgery to repair his damaged left shoulder.
And while the
And while the 43-year-old Australian is out for the rest of the PGA Tour season, including the U.S. Open, British Open and PGA Championship, it could have been worse if not for a relatively new procedure.
JOHN BURRY
"There were a number of problems, including
Norman: Probably will not compete until November
bone spurs and damage to the lining of the joint, and this is unique." Richard Hawkins said yesterday after operating on Norman at the Steadman Hawkins Sports Medicine Foundation in Vail, Colo.
But it was one particular problem that forced Norman to face a sixmonth rehabilitation process before returning to competition. The ball of his shoulder was sliding in the
Hawkins said Norman's workout regimen likely lessened his problems and made him a perfect candidate for rehabilitation.
"Posterior instability in an athlete is unusual, and in a golfer, it's some concern because the ball is sliding backward in the socket," Hawkins said.
socket.
This will be the first year since 1980 that Norman, winner of 74 official events worldwide, including the British Open in 1986 and 1993, has not played in at least three of the four major championships.
Collins said a tentative timetable for Norman's return to competition would be Nov. 9-15 at the Shark Shootout in Thousand Oaks, Calif.
"I knew if I wanted to make a complete recovery this surgery was necessary," Norman said. "While the recuperative program will present certain challenges, I look forward to resuming my regular schedule and playing my best golf."
Norman had some discomfort for six to eight months and aggravated the problem before The Players Championship in March, according to Collins. After an MRI on April 13, he decided to have surgery.
A return at the Shark Shootout means Norman could be ready for the Presidents Cup, played in his native Australia for the first time Dec. 11-13. it would be a major disappointment to his fans and a blow for the event if Norman were unable to compete.
Italy may kick Nike off team sponsorship
The Associated Press
ROME — Leftist lawmakers are trying to force the Italian Soccer Federation to drop Nike as a sponsor of the national team, accusing the company of abusing its workers.
The party has asked sports minister Walter Veltroni to cancel Nike Italy's $4 million sponsorship and presented him with reports that alleged abuses of children and women workers in Indonesia and Vietnam.
"Our soccer team is a major national symbol. It should not have a sponsor that exploits child labor," Alfio Nicotra, an official of the Communist Refoundation party, said yesterday.
The information comes from a January 1997 audit by the firm of Ernst & Young and from U.S. labor and human rights groups.
The audit, commissioned by Nike, said workers in a large Vietnam shoe factory were exposed to a cancer-causing substance and had a high incidence of respiratory problems.
Massimo Gluno said the report was outdated and the company had improved conditions. He also said Communist Refoundation's misleading information could have an impact by confusing consumers and could harm the company's image.
The party set it sights on Nike after the soccer federation unveiled the team's jerseys for the upcoming World Cup finals earlier this month. The jerseys have the Nike "swosh" emblazoned on the chest.
"At the least they should take the symbol off the jerseys," Nicotra said. "If they won't end the sponsorship, then some of the money from Nike should be earmarked for groups that fight for workers' rights."
Nike also is under pressure in California, where it was sued Monday for its campaign to defend wages and conditions at its Asian factories. The suit said the campaign was misleading and violated the state's false-advertising laws.
The suit accuses Nike of trying to entice consumers who do not want to purchase products made in sweatshops.

practices, jump shots and jostling.
But it is one question that we areies Michael Jordan more than anything else. At every stop, before and after every game, it is always the same: What's next?
Jordan: Hasn't decided whether he will return next year
play next year if Bulls coach Phil Jackson is not back. General manager Jerry Krause has said it is time for Jackson to leave, and the ex-hippe, Zen-practicing coach is ready to take a year off.
Jordan has said he will not
Who knows? Jordan has at times appeared to hedge. And he has changed his mind before. And almost no one wants to believe basketball's greatest player, a man whose salary alone has totaled $63 million the last two years, is going to hang up his flying shoes.
So that ought to be it. Right?
"It's a lot of the same old questions I had to deal with city-to-city," Jordan said. "It gets monotonous, although I may have the same answers. It's taken too much time to talk about something that really hasn't been decided."
So the question keeps coming, over and over and over again.
He has been on top of the NBA as its best player for years, even after taking a nearly two-year respite from the game when he experimented with baseball.
Comebacks from retirement often produce players who are just a shadow of what they once were. Jordan, who altered his game the second time around and has made great use of a fall away jumper that is unblockable, has won two championships since coming back. This season, he captured his 10th scoring title.
"Hell," said Nick Anderson, Orlando Magic guard. "You ever been to hell before? You don't want to go."
What is it like to guard him?
Now, Jordan's favorite time has arrived—the playoffs. Knowing the Bulls need 15 more wins for their sixth title of the decade, he will be revitalized for the postseason, which begins tomorrow against the New Jersey Nets.
The playoffs, Jordan says, start with players' willingness to push themselves. And no one has done that better.
His career playoff average of 33.6 is the best in NBA history. He has made game-winning shots in the postseason an art form.
"Having him means you've got the mental edge over every team you play because he's the best," said teammate Steve Kerr. "Even if you lose a game or are down in a game, you've got him on your side. You're always in the game. Until we lose or get knocked off, we will always have that."
That this might indeed be who Jackson calls the Bulls "last dance" will make Jordan even more passion ate in his quest for another title.
"I think the last championship is always the hardest and probably the most gratifying because of the expectations you deal with over the whole course of the season," Jordan said. So, what if this is the end?
"I think he is probably at the prime of his game," Daly said. "He knows exactly how to generate his energy, where it is at all times. He has complete control of his body. I think he is probably playing the best basketball he's ever played in his life. I think it would be unfortunate if he left the game."
"I think it would be a terrible loss for the game," said Chuck Daly, the Orlando coach whose champion Detroit Pistons teams of the last 10 years often frustrated Jordan with their rough defense and great play, for years denying him a shot at a title.
Student-athletes score work permit
The Associated Press
OVERLAND PARK — NCAA athletes yesterday won the right to hold part-time jobs, a ruling that might signal a new relationship between big-time college programs and the players who generate millions of dollars for them.
Many coaches and administrators worry that the decision will encourage booster groups and possibly bring a new wave of cheating — athletes being paid for work they never did.
But others, including Bridgit Niland, leader of the NCAA's student-athlete advisory committee, lauded the move by the college presidents, who hold power within the NCAA's new structure.
"They really did consider the welfare of the student-athlete instead of just saving they were." Niland said.
$2,000 a year. They can work while their sport is in season, and the jobs can be arranged by the athletic department or boosters.
Final approval for the measure, adopted during the NCAA's 1997 convention but suspended for a year, was made by the NCAA's board of directors, a group of college presidents, meeting in Indianapolis.
Beginning in August, Division 1 athletes who have been enrolled for one year will be able to earn up to

doubted most athletes would seek jobs.
"There are too many time demands on these kids," she said.
"The only time the abuse is going to happen is when it's facilitated by a coach or an athletic director."
Another concern is that highly sought recruits will expect coaches to guarantee jobs. Another is that athletes may spend time working instead of studying and let their grades slump.
"It's going to be a disaster," said Kansas State basketball coach Tom Amurv
David Berst, head of the NCAA's enforcement department, said he was not bracing for a repeat of the widespread cheating that occurred
before boosters were barred from recruiting.
"Boosters are willing to follow the instructions of coaches," he said. "And the abuses that we all remember were often the result of the coaches and others who winked at the notion that the boosters should avoid violations."
Many coaches resent not being represented on the committee that worked with the NCAA's management council and board of directors in making the decision.
Niland, a committee member, said the proposal was recommended only reluctantly last week by the athletic administrators who make up the management council.
"This philosophically sounds good to the presidents, but it's the coaches who will get fired," a basketball coach who asked not to be identified told a recent meeting of the National Association of Basketball Coaches.
Syracuse president Kenneth Shaw, the board chairman, made good on the promise he made last year when the board suspended the rule.
"We are delighted to give student-athletes the opportunity to work in this way," he said.
Vindicated world-class runner takes mark again
The Associated Press
EUGENE, Ore. — Mary Slaney is ready to race again. Four months short of her 40th birthday, the best woman distance runner in U.S. history is mounting one more comeback, motivated by the raw deal she thinks she got from the people who run track and field.
"I've been written off so many times," she said. "And I think every time people decide to write me off or the scuttlebutt is 'Well, she's finished', it makes me just that much more determined to come back and do well."
Slaney is entered in the 1,500 meters at this weekend's Drake Relays, her first serious race since she was cleared to run following her suspension for excessive levels of testosterone, detected in tests at the U.S. Olympic Trials in 1996.
Slaney, backed by the considerable resources of Nike, fought the charges. She challenged the tests used by USA Track and Field and the International Amateur Athletic Federation, citing studies that showed testosterone can fluctuate greatly depending on factors such as age and menstrual cycle.
The names of those who test positive are not supposed to be made public until a hearing and the accused can respond to the charges. But Slaney's name was leaked and she was banned. The IAAF cited the slowness of USA Track and Field to act on the matter for the suspension.
When a hearing was held last September, the panel unanimously agreed she was innocent and cleared her to run again. The IAAF refused to go along but referred the matter to arbitration.
That means Stanley is cleared to race worldwide, said Craig Masback, who took over as head of USA Track and Field in the months after Stanley's suspension.
"I can't imagine there's any need for further discussion, and I've told the IAAF that," Masback said. "There essentially was no reason for a suspension in the first place."
The governing body has overhauled its testosterone testing since Mashack took over.
www.kansan.com
Slaney and Masback, acquaintances from their days as competitors, have met several times to discuss Slaney's situation.
"I certainly feel like things are at least heading in the right direction now," she said.

The Digital Jayhawk
Story by Brandon Coppe Illustration by Angle Kuhn
The University Daily Kansan is the student newspaper of the University of Kansas. The first copy is paid through the student activity fee. Additional copies of the Kansan are 25 cents.
The School of Journalism is building an integrated Web site to teach students new media. But the project may be having trouble getting off the ground.
W when Jimmy Gentry became dean of the University of Kansas School of Journalism,
he knew he had to come up with a way to get the school on the cutting edge of digital technology, but he didn't know how.
Now, Gentry thinks he may have found a way.
next fall, the school will launch a new media laboratory called the Digital Jayhawk — an integrated Web site that would provide news and sports, complete with audio and video, as well as information from the University and links to Web sites across campus.
The Digital Jayhawk would deliver, like a paperboy, the news to users' doors, or in this case, to their computer screens.
It is an experiment Gentry said would lead the school to the forefront of Web-based media.
The project would involve students from the school's print, radio and television programs, as well as advertising and business communications. It also could involve students from
engineering or fine arts.
Gentry said the project would prepare students to work in an industry where corporate giants, such as Time-Warner, control print, television, radio and new media.
Gentry said it would cost about $40,000 to make the Digital Jayhawk operational. That includes the purchase price of hardware and software, as well as payroll for five to 10 students.
"The whole industry is moving toward convergence." Gentry said. "We have traditionally had three different fleddoms in the journalism school — print, radio and television — and that's no longer the way the work works."
About half of the money came from a grant the school won from the University. The remainder will come from the school's budget.
The project is the brain-child of two men: Gentry and Gary Hawke, professor of broadcast and general manager of KJHK radio and KUJH Internet television.
Gentry and Hawke agree on the
need to provide new media experience for journalism students, and they generally agree on what the Digital Jayhawk should be.
But they disagree about many of the technical aspects of the project, which may indicate either how difficult it is to embark on a major new media project, or how far this project is from completion.
Hawke, who has been working on the Digital Jayhawk for close to two years, said the primary focus involved gathering and managing information from other sources.
Gentry said the Digital Jayhawk would produce some of its own content, or information, in a newsroom staffed by reporters, editors, designers and computer engineers.
Hawke said the Digital Jayhawk's revenue would come almost entirely from selling subscriptions.
news sports the arts audio video highlights
Gentry said he did not think it could sell enough subscriptions to sustain itself.
Hawke said the partners would be the entities for which the Digital Jayhawk served as a conduit. For example, the site will allow the chancellor to post messages and announcements to the administration and faculty. Using audio streaming technology, the Digital Jayhawk could allow users to hear the chancellor's voice. Hawke said.
The Digital Jayhawk will provide links to other University news and information sources, Hawke said. He said he envisioned a Web site that displayed multiple windows of news and information from various partners.
The chancellor's office is a partner, as are the Athletic Department and the Alumni Association. Hawke said he hoped to gain the Lied Center as well.
Each of those already has a Web site, but Hawke said the Digital Jayhawk would make the same information easier to access.
In some cases, the Digital Jayhawk also will offer a value-added product with audio or video streaming and interactive features.
KJHK and KUJH already own the streaming technology that converts audio and video content into digital form that can be reproduced on the Web.

"The whole industry is moving toward convergence. We have traditionally had three different fiefdoms in the journalism school print, radio,and television and that's no longer the way the world works." Jimmy Gentry
PETER E. HANCOX
Dean of the School of Journalism
could have the Digital Jayhawk push the information to them.
Push technology allows users to receive information from a Web site without having to access it on the Web.
Push technology could be used, for instance, with a placement service to inform students of new job openings.
Hawke said push technology had been criticized because it consumed the bandwidth on the phone lines that transmitted digital signals. However, he said technology quickly was overcoming those problems.
"The software we've got allows you to limit the information you're receiving so it eats up less bandwidth." he said. "So if you just want sports, you turn it on sports only. It also has a feature that updates information only at times when you're not using your bandwidth."
Plans for the Digital Jayhawk still are sketchy. There is no business plan, and no classroom space has been chosen.
The school had planned to hire a faculty member to work in new media, but after interviewing three candidates, the faculty could not agree on whom to hire. Gentry said the school still was searching for a faculty adviser for the Digital Jayhawk.
The school has purchased a software package and the necessary hardware, and some key campus players are behind the project.
Michael Grobe, KU distributed computing manager, said he and other computing services officials were pleased with the project.
"I'm not a big fan of push technology, but different people have different preferences," he said. "I've looked at a lot of new directions for
distributed information technology, and this is a pretice good one."
There is some skepticism, however, about the way Digital Jayhawk is shaping up. Several journalism faculty members expressed doubts about the software package, push technology and sustaining the project with subscriptions. None would speak on the record.
Part of the skepticism may stem from the fact nobody really knows what the Digital Jayhawk will look like.
Jeffries said she did not think the subscription-driven Digital Jayhawk would be a source of competition for the UDK1, which offers free access and receives its revenue from advertising.
"People associate campus news with the Kansan," she said. "We will still have the strongest content and the strongest news staff."
"It's hard to know how you feel when there doesn't seem to be any definition about what it is," said Charity Jeffries, University Daily Kansan interactive editor.
Gentry and Hawke both maintain the Digital Jayhawk will provide a

Police remember officers who died while on duty
Lawrence police will be wearing black bands around their badges today in memory of three Lawrence police officers who died while on duty.
Sgt. George Wheeler said April 24 was Uniform Day, when all Lawrence officers wear their uniforms to pay respect to Melvin Howe and officers Wilson Pringle and Allen Moore.
Howe was killed on April 24, 1931, in North Lawrence. He was shot by a suspect who was sitting in a car he had stopped, Wheeler said.
Wheeler said Pringle was shot in the neck on Oct. 16, 1909.
Moore, the third officer being honored, accidentally shot himself May 22, 1901, at the Union Pacific Station in North Lawrence. Moore dropped his gun, causing it to discharge and shoot him in the chest.
"It's something that's important to all of us." Wheeler said.
He said the Lawrence Police Department also would be participating in National Police Memorial Week, which will be observed this year from May 11-15.
Police looking for man who robbed local hotel
The Hampton Inn, 2300 West Sixth St., was robbed at 11 p.m. Wednesday night, Lawrence police said.
Sgt. George Wheeler said an unknown suspect entered the motel's lobby, asked to register for a room and then demanded money from the clerk, a Lawrence woman
"He just asked for the money and produced a paper bag, and the clerk complied." Wheeler said.
Wheeler described the suspect as a 5-foot,
160lb, white male between 30 and 40-
year old, with brown hair and a mustache.
The man fleed the scene on foot with an undis-
closed amount of money. Wheeler said.
He said although the clerk never saw a weapon and never was threatened by the suspect, she was wise to not challenge the man.
—Briefs by Ronnie Wachter
"I'm going to say that she did the right thing," Wheeler said.
Earth day
Groups to sponsor party to raise planet awareness
A party for the planet will take place from noon to 6 p.m. tomorrow at South Park in Lawrence.
The 1998 Planet Party is a communitywide festival to celebrate Earth Day and environmental awareness. The event is free and open to the public. University of Kansas student groups and local business are sponsoring the event.
The event will feature tables for information and for environmental crafts such as paper-making. A belly-dancing troupe and The Band That Saved The World will be performing.
A meal will be provided by Food Not Bombs, a local hunger relief organization.
Victoria Silva, director of the University's Office of Recycling and Resource Conservation, said this year's Planet Party would be different from others because of the wide variety of groups involved.
"This event will have more community out-reach than other events we've had so far." Silva said.
More information about the event can be obtained by calling KU Environs at 864-7325.

Professor receives award for excellence in advising
When Katiehle McCluskey-Fawcett was an undergraduate at the University of Minnesota, she was helped by academic advisers who changed her life.
tonight, she will be honored for providing the same important service to students at the University of Kansas.
McClusky-Fawcett, associate provost and professor of psychology, will be recognized for excellence in academic advising at 5 today during a reception at the Summerfield room in the Adams Alumni Center.
McClusky-Fawcett is the recipient of the 1998 J. Michael Young Academic Adviser Award, which includes a $500 prize.
The award will be presented by the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences Alumni Club Advisory Board.
Her name also will be added to a plaque in the College's Advising Center.
McClusky-Fawcett said the reward was not the money.
"The money is nice, but the real honor is that the award is named after J. Michael Young, who was a dear friend and colleague," she said.
McClusky-Fawcett said she was surprised and thrilled to receive the award.
"I do so much administration, and I was afraid that I wasn't as in touch with students as I used to be," she said.
She said she was selected as the winner of the award after students nominated her.
"I think part of the reason this is so meaningful is that I was a first-generation college student," she said. "I had such great undergraduate advisers who really change;...the direction of my life. I hope I've had that same kind of influence on other students."
Kansas football alumnus to receive Apple Award
Gale Sayers will receive the Apple Award for Distinguished Achievement in Education at KU during a ceremony tomorrow evening.
Sayers, former University of Kansas and Chicago Bears running back and alumnus of the University of Kansas School of Education and entrepreneur, will be recognized at a dinner for the School of Education's National Advisory Board meeting in Dyce Hall.
The award represents individuals who are active in education and civic organizations.
Karen Gallagher, dean of education, said Sayers had a long history of community service, particularly in education.
"Since 1994, he has helped the school raise more than $45,000 for student scholarships through the Cale Sayers Benefit Golf Tournament," she said.
Speakers who will honor Sayers at the dinner include Gallagher; Dave Schmidt, National Advisory Board chair; Bob Frederick, athletic director; and Jack Mitchell, who coached Sayers from 1961 to 1965. Also speaking will be Sayer's student teaching adviser Wayne Osness, professor of health, sport and exercise science, and Clay Blair III, past chair of the National Advisory Board.
Sayers attended the University from 1961 to 1965 and returned to earn a bachelor's degree in physical education in 1975. He also received a master's degree in educational administration in 1977.

As a sophomore, Sayers completed a 99- yard touchdown run against the University of Nebraska, which remains an NCAA record.

Some skeptics say few Web-based media enterprises have been able to sustain themselves through the sale of subscriptions.
"We're going to provide news and information in a forum that's unlike anything else on this campus or anywhere," Gentry said.
Chris Jennewein is vice president for technology and operations for Knight-Ridder New Media in San Jose, Calif. He said few general publications had succeeded in selling subscriptions on the Web.
“If you're slightly outside the mainstream and the information you offer isn't available for free somewhere else, you can probably make it work,” he said. “Otherwise, it's tough to sell subscriptions because there are so many places to get content for free.”
Hawke said the Digital Jayhawk would offer some free services, such as links to the Kansan and other news sources.
However, for the price of a subscription, users could access audio, video and print news that is not available anywhere. Hawke said.
"I think there are enough people out there who are interested in the information we can provide and who are tired of advertising hitting them in the face every time they turn the computer on," Hawke said. "But even if we don't get any subscribers, we haven't really lost anything. We can use this equipment somewhere else."
Gentry said he and Hawke did not see eye-to-eye about the role subscriptions and push technology would play in the project, and he said he did not expect their differences of opinion to be ironed out soon.

"From what I can tell about new media, you don't ever iron it out," he said. "It's changing all the time, and at some point you've just got to jump out there and do it."
Jennewne said the Digital Jayhawk could give journalism graduates a tremendous advantage.
"I think the biggest growth area for journalism right now is the World Wide Web," he said. "So any skills a student might acquire with regard to the Web would be highly sought after in the job market."
Gentry said if the students would benefit, he was willing to get started, even if the product was less than perfect.
"There's a lot to be said about learning by just bumbling around," Gentry said. "In new media, nobody has the answers, they're just all out there grouping."

Holocaust evils still haunt Schindler Jew
By Sara Anderson
By Sarah Anderson
sanderson@kansan.com
Kanson staff writer
Kansan staff writer
Alexander Rosner fought spirits from the past as he recalled his Holocaust experiences to about 800 people last night.
Rosner spoke in the Ballroom of the Kansas Union as part of Holocaust Remembrance Day. The presentation, "A Schindler Jew," was followed by a question-and-answer session. The Hiliel Foundation sponsored the event.
"Remembering the past is when I remember the forces present then, and they come into the present," Rosner said. "It's getting increasingly easy to do this, but it does have an effect, and it grabs me by the throat."
Ellen Block, Houston senior, said Rosner's speech was impressive.
"It was amazing," she said. "It was interesting to hear a first-hand experience because when you get details that allow you to picture it, it gives you so much more than the textbooks ever could."
Rosner, born in Warsaw, Poland, recreated the scenes and feelings of the survivors and victims of the Holocaust. Separated form his mother, Rosner relocated to several concentration camps
with his father, a violinist. He said he survived because of his father's talents.
"At the concentration camps, they found out my father was a musician and wanted him to play." he said. "My father said should I be removed from him, he wouldn't play any more."
Rosner said after he was liberated by American forces, he did not speak about the Holocaust for about 50 years. He said after several personal hardships, the healing process began.
Rosner said being contacted by Steven Spielberg to participate in the film Schindler's List helped him come to terms with the experience.
"It was very scary because I didn't want to remember," he said. "Not forgetting is one thing, but remembering is another."
Rosner said through his experiences, he learned differences were obsolete.
"Deep inside, humans are the same," he said. "If we don't take this to heart, there will be more Holocausts, so those who didn't learn will be forced to learn again."
When an audience member asked why Schindler helped the Jews during the Holocaust, Rosner said he asked Schindler that same question.
[Picture] A man in a suit stands facing two women seated on a bed, who are holding pillows and wearing headphones. The room is dimly lit with warm tones.
Schindler told Rosner it was because he couldn't stand the inhumanity surrounding him.

"My father said that Schindler was an angel," Rosner said. "And I think that my father was closer to the truth than Schindler was."

Victims' names powerful reminder of human tragedy
By Sara Anderson sanderson@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
"Abram Metrikin, age 4, murdered. Sara Rifaff Mermelstein, age 10, murdered. Szmul Laks, age 14, murdered." The normally festive Wescoe Beach echoed with remembrance yesterday.
Students, faculty and members of campus organizations read the names and ages of Holocaust victims in memory of the victims. "Unto every person there is a name," lasted from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. yesterday in front of Wescoe Hall as part of Holocaust Remembrance Day. The reading was part of a nationwide event.
"This has been incredible," said Ayelet Goldberg, Hiliel Foundation program director. "Wescoe has been quieter than it's ever been. It's amazing to see the contrast of when students come out of class happy and lively and then stop and quiet down. It's such a wonderful sign of respect."
Lindsay Keller, Dayton, Ohio, freshman, said she didn't realize all the children who had been killed during the holocaust.
"It's so sad, and I didn't know they were all so young," she said. "It's important for people to
Goldberg said there were two lists to read from, one dedicated to children and the other made up of complete families who died.
know about."
Renee Greenberg, Northbrook, Ill., senior, read. She said reading the names was both emotional and upsetting.
“It’s such a positive thing because we should never forget what happened,” she said. “I don’t think we have the right to deny people were murdered, and by not reading the names, we forget they were individuals. Without the names, they were just a number.”
Goldberg said this was the first time the University had participated in the name reading.She said one of the day's most dramatic moments came when a former Neo-Nazi asked if he could read from the list.
"He said, I hated people like you. I wanted to kill people like you." And then he said he wanted to read some names if we'd let him," she said.
Nicole Newland, Kansas City, Mo. freshman, said the event brought more reality to the Holocaust.
"I've seen how it has affected everyone," she said. "People don't realize what happened. It brings it home."

Editorials
Campus living groups should make an effort to recycle everything
Recycling is one of the easiest ways to help out the environment and our future. The editorial board has written many editorials this year trying to persuade students to use the recycling bins on campus. No matter how much money the University spends on recycling programs, it won't make any difference if students don't use them.
Those that started recycling programs should be commended, and those that have not should follow the others' examples and work to make recycling a part of their residents'
Fortunately for the environment, students are beginning to supplement the University recycling system with comprehensive recycling systems in their living communities.
Some halls and houses already have efficient, effective recycling programs
daily lives.
Organized living groups like residence halls, greek houses and scholarship halls all have the potential for an effective recycling program, and many are starting to realize this. All of the nine scholarship halls recycle aluminum cans, and some of them have extensive programs set up to recycle plastic containers, cardboard, styrofoam and batteries. Next year, the scholarship halls plan to implement a composting program, so that food scraps will not be sent to
the landfills.
In the residence halls, there has been a similar push for more in-hall recycling. In November, Hashinger Hall started a pilot program for recycling paper, cans, and plastic containers. If the program continues to be successful, it will be implemented in all the other residence halls. Communal living, whether in a Greek house, a residence hall or a scholarship hall, presents a perfect opportunity to set up and use a comprehensive recycling program.
If your hall or house does not have a program, start one. If your hall already has one, make use of it—it never will be easier to help out the environment.

Hawk Week coordinators need help
It is hard for many students to forget their first week at the University of Kansas. Hopefully, most took advantage of Hawk Week events to help them meet people, prepare for classes and become acclimated to the campus.
The Office of New Student Orientation helps organize Hawk Week. A subcommittee with representatives from Student Union Activities, the Student Alumni Association, Intercollegiate Athletics, the Office of Minority Affairs, the Organizations and Leadership Development Center, the Greek Community, Recreation Services, the Lied Center and the Department of Student Housing have made recommendations for 1998.
This year, two students were selected to take on the huge responsibility of
Students should give input and ideas to make Hawk Week better for all students
planning Hawk Week. The Hawk Week coordinators this year are Holly Tallen and Hilary Johnston, and they need input from students, faculty and staff about ideas for the 1998 Hawk Week. They are researching what has worked in the past and looking at new ways to reach out to all student so that Hawk Week can be better than ever before. They need as much input as possible to improve the program.
about the resources on campus and the University's traditions, it is the first time for most students to be on campus as Jayhawks. These first few days before classes can be critical in preparing students academically, socially and mentally for the upcoming school year. And Hawk Week is not only for new students. It provides entertainment and activities for all students.
Hawk Week plays an essential part in new students' transitions to the University. In addition to learning more
- But to make Hawk Week effective, its coordinators need more student input to help welcome all the new and old students back to campus next year.
Students should e-mail ideas and suggestions to Tallen and Johnston at orientation@s3t7.eds.ukans.edu. Help make Hawk Week a memorable experience for all KU students — old and new.

Smoking shortens life, but makes it enjoyable
Ice-cold Pepsi kisses, laced with cigarette smoke. I associate this taste with love, and it's one of the fondest memories from my childhood. My mom's kisses always tasted like that because, beside my sister and I, she loved Pepsi and Meal ___
because, beside my sister and I, she loved Pepsi and Marlboros most of all.
I guess you could say she was, and still is, an addict. In fact, she gets shakes and acts upset when denied either of her vices. But she's content, and that's all that really matters to me.

"What's the point of living if I don't enjoy it," my mom would say.
I would then point out that my uncle Leslie had died of lung cancer a few years ago, and I'm sure that he would have family quit care.
have happily quit smoking for another day with his children.
But he too had seen life through a smoke-screened truth. He, like my mother, had lived life by the "smoke and enjoy life" motto.
Aply nicknamed "Smoke," he consumed nearly three packs of non-filtered cigarettes a day until he died at 52.
Not that he just dropped dead one day. It was a long, drawn-out odeal of chemo and radiation therapy. For me, it was more than a year of watching my five cousins witness their father die slowly. I had to watch a one-strong and stubborn man turn into a frail shell.
The last three months of his life he spoke in a higher tone. He didn't do it on purpose, but in the latter stage of radiation therapy, his throat had been damaged. The surgeons also had to remove his left lung, denying him the wind necessary to have a strong voice, even if he'd had the vocal chords left.
I remember the first time I saw Smoke after his voice was changed. It was a warm, late-spring afternoon, and he was working in his garden. He didn't hoe at the ground with the same vigor as he had in previous years, and he wasn't making much progress. I think he was hacking at the ground to find peace. Gardening was something he had done his whole life. With every hoe stroke, it was as though he was tapping a message in Morse code, to whoever might be listening, that he was alive and well, gardening just like every other year.
I saw that he wanted me to believe he was OK.
I wanted to humor him but couldn't. He was now no more than skin and bones from the radiation, and his jokes lacked the depth they once had.
It came to the point that he had to stop hoo-hacking and talk to me, so he told a joke. I can't remember the words, just the voice. The voice would have been a mouse if he had the lung power to push for a squeak. When he spoke, I knew that Smoke was already dead, just waiting for the body to turn cold.
Both of my maternal grandparents have smoked all of their adult lives. Both have developed heart problems, survived heart attacks and undergone heart surgery. Doctors say smoking caused the heart problems, and they could add years to their lives if they quit.
I ask my grandparents why they don't quit.
The obvious reply to this question is, "There is more to enjoy in life than just satisfying addictions."
But who am I to talk? I smoke a pack a day myself.
"What's the point of living if I don't enjoy it," they respond.
So, why do I smoke when I know it will send me to an early grave?
Being from a small town of 200 people outside of El Dorado, basically in the middle of nowhere, young boys had plenty of places to do boy things, such as catching snakes and wading in creeks and blowing up stuff with firecrackers. During our grade school years, Paul and I were like Tom and Huck.
My first experience with smoking was in the first grade. My cousin Paul and I were best friends for my entire childhood. Paul is one of Smoke's sons.
That's the million dollar question and answer-
ing it could tell a lot about a person.
One day Paul stole a pack of his dad's Pall Malls, and we walked along the creek that runs by my house and smoked some cigarettes, turned green and felt like big shots.
And it caught on. Soon everyone in my town was stealing their parents' smokes and coming over after school. "Walkin' the crick," soon became synonymous for having an after-school smoke before the parents got home from work.
When my friends and I got to middle school, we were still smoking but with one difference. We had quit stealing cigarettes from our parents and started stealing them from stores because we weren't old enough buy them. Many of my friends got caught, but I never did.
When I got to high school, I quit stealing cigarettes and started having my older friends buy them for me. By this time I was up to a pack a day, except during track season when I quit for a couple of months. I've smoked a pack a day for the last seven years.
I know smoking is bad for me, and I know that it will send me to an early grave, but I just can't help it. When my roommate says, "Keith, you should really stop smoking." I have to reply, "What's the point of life if I don't enjoy it?"
He just shakes his head and walks away. I'm sure he's thinking, "Now there's a winning motto."
He's right. But the need to rationalize our collective addiction runs strong in my family — for some reason longevity doesn't.
Burner is an El Dorado freshman in pre-journalism.
Irrational fear of dogs never will be erased
Why am I so scared of dogs? I have never been bitten by one. Even puppies scare me. Anything with four legs, a tongue, a tail and a bark can turn a
certain 26-year-old woman into an absolute chicken. And that Chicken Woman is me.
I can be brave, sometimes even surprising myself. I can walk around Lawrence all by myself at night. I can sleep peacefully even when I know that I am going to be absolutely broke for the next two weeks, and the only people I can really turn to for money, my family, live on the other side

of the world. I have moved in with absolute strangers for roommates about six times since my sojourn to America 1 1/2 years ago, decided departure from a cozy family life in Bombay, India. I have been battle-crossed and emotionally wrecked from living with incompatible people, but I still can do it if I have to.
But if there is something that arouses in me a fear with no leash, it's a dog on the loose. Each time my brain encounters a situation involving a dog, the familiar reflexes dart out and join hands. Run. Yell. Hide. Disappear. Fear. Fear. Fear.
My encounters with enthusiastic dog owners who let their dogs roam around without a leash and fail to see why it should bother others has been embarrassing and exasperating. Many don't understand what the fuss is about. Some laugh in your face. Some ignore you. Some lecture you. Some give you that funny foreigner look. Each will tell you that dogs are harmless and that Suzy, Jane, Jill, Blacky, or whatever their dogs are called, only want to play with you. I know that — but I want to yell at them that I still can't help being scared. The fear, I want to roar, is deep within, like hunger, thirst and carnal desires. It leaps from a part of my brain that a hand cannot reach out and stop. Even when I tell myself, "Now don't behave like an idiot," I turn deaf.
I didn't grow up with a lot of dogs around me. And the ones I knew were not pretty or petite. Barky, the fright of the neighborhood
There were two Barkys in my life. Barky No.

was more insidious and fearfully close. He had teeth like stalactites and stalagmites and would chase me in the dark tunnels of nightmare land until I would wake up in a cold sweat, afraid of being bitten.
The road to erasing dogs from your life is a long one. It consists of mad detours past parks and open spaces in the summer, and yoyoing from one side of the street to another to avoid a loose dog in the distance. The crosswalks and turnings that the approaching dog takes map my path, only I move in the opposite direction. If it goes right, I go left. If it continues right ahead, I disappear to the other side of the street. The rustle of leaves on the road sometimes scares me. It sounds too much like the wind whooshing through a dog leash.
children and the first dog I knew, was a big, ugly bulldog. His face settled under his chin like a loose pouch, and none of us wanted to find ourselves in the guttural regions behind the folds.
Friends who are also dog owners are not in my address book. I would never have the pleasure of owning a certain loyal animal as a pet. And I could never, never marry a veterinarian. When I have children, and they scream about seeing a dog, I will be the model mother. I'll scream with them. I could never live in the countryside all by myself. It's too dangerous to live there without the protection of a guard dog. Like many other people, I will grow old with a phobia ossified in my psyche like a bad habit. I sometimes wonder if a little impulsiveness is the best antidote to fear.
Both the Barkys departed from my life but something of that childhood fear remained. Often I have wondered if every other dog after them became a potential Barky.
I could close my eyes, hug a dog, and it would all be over. We could be friends. But best intentions don't always translate into best actions. Bad habits don't always die young. And certain things in life are just meant to be what they are — a sad and unnecessary version of what otherwise could have been.

Brazil official visits University
By Marc Sheforgen
msheforgen@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Brazil is emerging as an economic power and has more similarities to the United States than many students might realize, said Julios Victor, deputy consul of Brazil, while he was at the University of Kansas yesterday.
Victor spoke to a group of 25 students in Melissa Birch's Business Culture and Society in Latin America class. The 90-minute lecture aimed to teach students about the economic stabilization Brazil has implemented and how the country may relate to the United States in the future.
victor said because of stereotypes inherent in human nature, the people of these two countries did not always understand one another. He said many U.S. residents did not fully realize the
importance of Brazil, a country with the 10th largest economy in the world.
How much do KU students know about Brazil?
Maybe that it is the largest country in South America, or that the native tongue is Portuguese. But many don't know that behind the United States, Brazil has the largest Internet use in the world.
Victor said although Brazil is on a different scale than the United States, the two countries have more in common than students realize. And it continues to grow economically.
"We are on the right track for continental stability and economic growth," Victor told his audience. "I think that you will hear about Brazil in the future, very, very frequently."
For six consecutive years, the Brazilian economy has grown, Victor said.
Bringing Victor to the University was a coordinated effort between the Brazilian Portuguese Organization and the business school.
Birch said many of the students in her class may be interested in doing business with Brazil in the future and she hoped they got a Brazilian point of view on a number of issues that will be crucial in the future.
Alex Montgomery-Soares, president of the Brazilian Portuguese Organization, said with Brazil's economic stabilization, Brazilian currency, the real, correlated roughly one-to-one with the American dollar.
Montgomery re-emphasized Victor's message, saying although the Brazilian economy is one-tenth that of the United States, it is an economic world power and one that will become more recognizable in the future.
Sunflower House sprouts again
By Carl Kaminski
ckaminski@kansan.com
Kamasan staff writer
Demand for a room at the Sunflower House co-op has been so strong the University of Kansas Student Housing Association is buving another house.
The housing association is looking for a house with about 10 bedrooms, said Greg Seibel, expansion project manager and Newton graduate student.
"It's definitely going to be smaller than the Sunflower House," Seibel said. The Sunflower House houses 31 people at 1406 Tennessee St.
The Sunflower House is owned by the housing association, a group of community members, and is not affiliated with the University.
Ken Stoner, University of Kansas Director of Student Housing, said the association got its name before the University had a department for student housing.
Seibel said the association was looking at two houses around the same area. One is on Kentucky Street and the other is north of campus near Ninth and Indiana streets.
Seibel said he did not keep track
of how many people were usually turned away after the Sunflower House filled up, but said it was enough to fill a second house easily.
"We usually fill up for the fall sometime in April," Seibel said. "We are already close to the limit."
Co-ops were popular in Lawrence between the 1920s and the mid-1950s when the residence halls opened.
It was not until 1969 the Sunflower House, then called the Campus Improvement Association House, was restarted. Since then, it has been the only co-op where the residents own the house.
rne scholarship halls fill the niche the co-ops once held, Stoner said.
He said the recent trend in student housing had been toward more privacy and amenities.
Seibel said one of the advantages of living in a co-op was the privacy it offered, while still maintaining a group environment.
Residents at Sunflower House pay between $155 and $212, utilities included, for a room, plus about $35 a month for food. Every Monday evening, residents meet to divide chores such as cooking and cleaning. Seibel said.

Seibel said after seeing the popularity of co-ops at other universities during a recent conference held by the North American Students Cooperation group in Ann Arbor, Mich. he was confident that co-ops in Lawrence could grow.
"There's a good chance that we would open up more in the future," he said. "We're feeling pretty confident right now."
He said universities like Michigan and the University of Texas had large co-op organizations with hundreds of students.
He said with more publicity and advertising, co-ops would attract more students.

Computer monitors not deadly, study says
Computer monitors and many other electrical appliances emit electromagnetic radiation, and some people say the rays might cause cancer.
But, Ruth Douglas Miller, assistant professor of electrical and computer engineering at Kansas State University, said the rays probably are not harmful.
"I think, at this point, the evidence strongly suggests that there is no link," Miller said. "There are some scientists who suspect that that there is a link. If there is one, it does not affect most of the population."
Miller and John Neuberger, physician and associate professor in preventive medicine at the University of Kansas Medical Center, conducted a study in which they looked for a connection between brain cancer, leukemia and electromagnetic fields.
"What has been looked at is exposure to power frequency magnetic
fields, the electricity in our houses." Miller said. "The magnetic fields exist only when current flows. An electrical outlet doesn't emanate any magnetic fields until you plug something in and turn it on."
Miller said these fields, if harmful, would be more likely to affect people who already have a predisposition to cancer, or who are already influenced by another cancer-causing agent. Miller said the only evidence the study found was an association between the radiation and childhood leukemia.
"It would not concern me what appliances my child uses," Miller said. "But there are scientists who would disagree with me. They are a minority."
Neuberger agreed with Miller's assessment.
"I don't think we have sufficient information right now to make this a top priority when there are other cancer issues out there that we know the causes of and that we need to address," Neuberger said.
Some entrepreneurs are capitalizing on fears that electronmagic
waves from appliances, such as computer monitors, could be a problem
Steve Hoffman, owner of the company that makes the MagnoTech Radiation Shield for computer monitors, said no one had determined whether the radiation emitted from computer monitors is harmful.
"We do know the rays are out there hitting us," Hoffman said. "But we don't know what's happening."
The $60 shield snaps on to the front of the monitor to reduce the radiation that is emitted from the screens, he said.
Aguina, owner of Sahen International, Inc., which makes SOMASHIELD, said his company's product was like health insurance.
"It's there for protection whether you need it or not." Amina said.
The $149.95 SOMASHIELD also attaches to the front of the computer monitor. Aguina said it is made of the same material X-ray technicians wear to protect themselves on the job.
"We've just been living on the assumption that anything we use in America is safe for us," he said.
Arbor Day honored with tree planting
By Emily C. Forsyth
forsyth@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Four University of Kansas honor society chapters spruced up campus yesterday afternoon with the dedication of a tree.
Golden Key, along with help from Mortar Board, Owl Society and Order of Omega purchased and dedicated a red maple tree in honor of Arbor Day.
Members of the honor societies gathered in front of Watson Library, where the tree was planted, and handed out free cake to passers-by.
Michelle Dennard, Chapman senior and member of Mortar Board, said the activity was a good way to bring together members of the honor societies.
"This is one of the few activities that all the honor societies participate in," Dennard said. "It's nice to see everyone together. It's neat because Arbor Day is a little-known holiday."
Chris Lovorn, Overland Park senior and 1997-98 president of Golden Key, said the activity was the beginning of an effort to bring the honor societies together more often.
"A lot of honor societies have similar mission statements," Lovorn said. "Along with promoting education and awarding academic excellence, we're also very committed to giving back to the campus and the community." Lovorn said.
A plaque with the groups' names inscribed on it was installed near the tree. The tree cost $200 and the plaque cost $150. Golden Key contributed $200, and the other three groups donated $50.
Gloria Flores, chapter adviser for Golden Key, said it was important to bridge relationships between the groups.
"I think this is a good collaborative effort for the honorary societies to participate in, especially in light of the Earth Week celebration," Flores said. "Community service and outreach is important to Golden Key, as I'm sure it is with the other honorary societies."
Flores said she hoped the groups would continue such projects

Minority seminar teaches etiquette
By Susie Gura
sgura@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Chew with your mouth closed, don't slouch and elbows off the table. These were the lessons learned at a simulated business lunch for students in the minority student scholars leadership seminar yesterday at the Adams Alumni Center.
Students enroll in the seminar for one or two semesters.
The seminar covers everything from time management to stress, anything to improve the college experience, said Vincent Edwards. Wichita freshman
Mike Parks, Newton freshman, said the seminar offered students diverse opportunities.
"We do something different every week," Parks said. "It is a hands on experience where we interact with a diverse group."
Sherwood Thompson, director of the Office of Minority Affairs said the class developed leadership skills.
"We had this meal to demonstrate how to handle themselves when eating." Thompson said. "We wanted them to be comfortable in all settings and to know what is appropriate."
Thompson said it was appropriate to use etiquette at all meals.
Emily Fitts, alumni center banquet manager; Bryan Greve, Learned Club manager at the center; and Steven Berger, center assistant manager, directed the class through the business meal.
"As leaders we teach by example, and this is an interpersonal aspect of leader ship."Thompson said.
"We are going to teach you what to do and what not to do." Berger said.
The 12 students who attended the lunch learned the proper way to conduct themselves during a four-course meal. Center staff gave advice for each course, and the students asked questions.
"The best feeling is to know a little bit and enjoy yourself," Fitsa said.
The students said they learned things about etiquette they did not know.
"I realized a lot of things that aren't true that I thought I knew, but I didn't," said Raheisha Nard, "Topeka freshman."
Thompson began the lunch last year after corporate executives recommended students learn proper etiquette.
"We wanted to expose students to dining etiquette that they can use during interviews," he said.
Thompson said he was pleased with the lunch and he wanted to make it an annual thing for his class.
"I think it worked out very well," Thompson said. "It is a reward for the students at the end of the course."
The alumni center staff has provided the etiquette sessions three times, twice for Thompson's class.
"It is the little services that we do that are fun," Berger said. "It is a nice thing to do that benefits people."

Birthday celebrates life by giving
Former professor wants donations instead of presents
By Marcelo Vilela
mvilela@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Ben Zimmerman is commemorating his 80th birthday with a "benny-fit."
He's having a party, but there will be no gifts for him. Zimmerman requested donations to organizations he's involved with instead of gifts for himself. He calls it "benny-fit." Even though donations are the spirit of the party, they are not mandatory, Zimmerman said.
Zimmerman is a retired University of Kansas professor of social welfare and prominent figure in the civil rights movement.
Zimmerman's party will be at 8 p.m. tomorrow at the Teepee Junction, a party center off Highway 40. Alice Lieberman, professor of social welfare and one of the originators of the benefit party idea, said she was expecting about 200 people to attend the party.
"I think he really liked the idea of using his birthday as a vehicle for raising money to causes that are important to him," Lieberman said. "He's been a role model for the community of activists and organizers in this town."
Funds raised at Zimmerman's party will be directed to Parents, Families and Friends of Lesbians and Gays, The Freedom Coalition and Women's Transitional Care Services.
Zimmerman said he was looking forward to the party.
"I'm very gratified," he said. "I don't necessarily want anybody looking up to me. I just hope they
"He has a wonderful and unique ability to mobilize people and make them believe that the impossible can happen."

can benefit from my experience."
Zimmerman came to the University in 1973. He was the first chairperson of the Discrimination Hearing Board at the University and was the faculty advisor of Gay Services of Kansas, the group today known as Queers and Allies.
He was involved with the foundation of Day Care Coalition of Lawrence & Douglas County, the Lawrence Alliance, the Freedom Coalition, the Douglas County AIDS Project and the Lawrence-Topeka Parents, Families and Friends of Lesbians and Gays.
In 1995, he was co-chairman of the Simply Equal campaign, a community-organized effort to add sexual orientation to the Human Relations Ordinance in Lawrence. The campaign succeeded.
Throughout his career, Zimmerman worked in several social welfare programs and organizations. He now serves on the local boards of The Freedom Coalition, the League of Women Voters, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and Parents, Families and Friends of Lesbians and Gays.
"He has a wonderful and unique ability to mobilize people and make them believe that the impossible can happen," Lieberman said. "This party is a testament of how well loved he is for what he does for this community."

King's assassin, 70, dies but controversy lives on
The Associated Press
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — James Earl Ray, the petty criminal who confessed to assassinating the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. and then recanted, died yesterday, frustrating civil rights leaders who fear they may never learn the truth. He was 70.
Ray died at a hospital of kidney failure and complications from liver disease while serving a 99-year prison sentence for the 1968 slaying.
"America will never have the benefit of Mr. Ray's trial, which would have produced new revelations about the assassination." said King's widow, Coretta.
Coretta King and her son, Dexter, have said they believe Ray was innocent.
The King family is pressing Attorney General Janet Reno to create a federal investigative commission with the power to subpoena witnesses, grant immunity and file charges against suspected conspirators.
But as far as Ray and the courts are concerned, it's finished. Prosecutors in Memphis, Tenn., where King was shot on a motel balcony, said Ray's 30-year battle to take back his guilty plea died with him.
A sniper shot King 30 years ago this month at the Lorraine Motel. He was in Memphis to support striking sanitation workers. The April 4, 1968, assassination touched off race riots in more than 100 cities and set off one of the biggest manhunts in U.S. history.
By pleading guilty in March 1969, he avoided the possibility of a death sentence. But Ray recanted three days later and argued for years that he was coerced into making the plea.
Ray's efforts resulted in an unlikely coalition between his family and King's.
"I am convinced that Ray was involved in the assassination of Dr. King, but he did not act alone," said Jackson, who was with King when he was shot. "Conspirators are still on the loose."
In 1978, the U.S. House Select Committee on Assassinations concluded Ray was the killer, but a group of racial bigots in St. Louis who reportedly had put a $50,000 bounty on King's head might have been involved, too.
Ray's last legal effort concentrated on the rifle prosecutors say was the murder weapon. Ray had purchased the rifle which was found near the murder scene moments after King was shot with Ray's
fingerprints on it. Ray claimed it was
nut there to frame him.
Ballistics tests by the FBI and a congressional committee in the 1970s failed to prove the rifle was the murder weapon, though King was killed with a similar gun. Tests undertaken in 1997 proved inconclusive, too. At his death, Ray was pressing for still more tests.
Justice Department spokesman Myron Martin said the department's review of the King assassination based on information submitted by Coretta King will continue despite Ray's death.
Courtroom artist Anna Sandhu, who was married to Ray from 1978 to 1992, said she first believed he was innocent but later discovered otherwise. She called their marriage a terrible mistake.
"James is probably right now some place where the devil is poking him in the butt with a pincorkf saying. 'You have to stand closer to the fire,' she said.
Ray had been hospitalized repeatedly, since late 1996 and had been in and out of coma, suffering most notably from cirrhosis of the liver.
His body will be cremated and his ashes flown to Ireland, his brother said.
McDougal still keeps quiet
Defendant waits to see if criminal charges follow
The Associated Press
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — A defiant Susan McDougal refused yesterday to answer questions before the Whitewater grand jury for the second time, ignoring prosecutors' threats that her silence could mean more time behind bars.
"I won't talk," said McDougall, shackled at the hands and feet, as she hopped out of a van and into federal court. "There is nothing to say."
McDougal finished serving 18 months in prison last month, the maximum punishment for civil contemp. The term was imposed for refusing to answer questions in her first appearance before the grand jury in September 1996.
Yesterday, she again refused to answer questions about what she knows about the financial affairs of President Clinton and his wife.
Prosecutors threatened her with criminal contempt, which carries more severe penalties than the civil charge, but stopped short of indicting her, said her lawyer, Mark Geragos.
"We're playing a game of chicken. Somebody's going to have to blink at some point," Geragos said. "We're at loggerheads."
Prosecutors refused to comment.
On her way back to jail, McDougal said she had tried to explain to the grand jury in her 15-minute appearance why she wouldn't answer questions.
"I told them the same thing I've been saying
... I'm somebody who has been in jail and has really paid a price," she said. "I didn't want them to think I was contemptuous of them."
U. S. District Judge Susan Weber Wright could send McDougal behind bars for another six months without a trial. Prosecutors could seek even more jail time by charging her with criminal contempt. If convicted, her punishment would depend on what the prosecution asks for and what the judge accepts.
It wasn't clear when prosecutors and Geragos would meet next. The grand jury's term expires May 7.
But Geragos said McDougal would welcome a trial, which would give her the opportunity to accuse Whitewater special prosecutor Kenneth Starr of trying to get her to lie about the Clintons in open court.
"This is not a woman who's afraid for one minute of a jury trial on criminal contempt," Geraos said.
Members of McDougal's family even predicted that no jury in Arkansas would convict her for refusing to tell what she knows about the president's finances when he was governor.
"Sometimes principle is far more important than the letter of the written law," said her brother, Bill Henley.
Henley called Starr a sham and a liar and said his sister will have nothing to do with him.
The judge on Wednesday rejected a request from Geragos to quash her subpoena because of recent ethical questions concerning Starr.
Parents, daughters win at workday

Starr's detractors say his key witness, David Hale, received payments from conservative organizations and Starr improperly accepted a job at Pepperdine University that was funded by a well-known Clinton opponent.
NEW YORK — Ernst & Young canned the tours and speeches. At this year's Take Our Daughters to Work Day yesterday, girls filled out loan applications, created ads and ran small businesses.
"We're keeping it fresh for our daughters," said Tom Hough, the accounting firm's vice chairman of human resources.
coming back each year.
Now in its sixth year, Daughters to Work Day is a rite of spring at many workplaces, with millions of girls attending. But employers have discovered that hands-on activities, not just talks and tours, are needed to keep their visitors
Girls at the New York law firm Anderson Kill & Olick helped stage a mock trial to assess liability for the 1912 sinking of the Titanic.
"Each year, the next year becomes even more difficult because we go through every effort imaginable to come up with something exciting," law partner Linda Gerstel said as children roamed the firm collecting evidence about the ship and its lifeboat count.
Francie Sloan, the day's lead organizer at Kaiser Permanente health care, said past efforts to interest the visitors in the largely administrative and financial jobs at the company's Oakland, Calif.,
headquarters were futile.
This year, doctors and nurses were brought in from the company's hospitals to help the girls play games about nutrition, learn about resume writing and discuss how the media shapes body image.
At the World Bank in Washington, interest in the annual round of tours and lectures waned so much that the event was skipped one year.
After organizers regrouped and created a mock university and other new events, attendance leaped from 600 girls to 1,100 last year. This year, about 1,800 girls showed up to teleconference with girls worldwide, create their own
Web sites and take classes on such topics as journal-writing and the development work of the bank.
"They may still take tours, but we discourage it," said coordinator Kathryn Tama.
The Ms. Foundation, creator of the day, approves.
"That's the stuff that keeps it fresh, keeps it current," president Marie Wilson said. "Companies have gotten smarter."
"Ireally learned stuff," she said
a twelve-year-old Cheyenne Vieira, a third-year veteran of the day, said she liked this year's hands-on activities at Salomon Smith Barney better than last year's magic show.
Clinton convinced Chelsea he was governor not cook
WASHINGTON D.C. — Long before Take Our Daughters to Work Day was a tradition, President Clinton saw it as a necessity — to set Chelsea straight.
The Associated Press
Reminiscing yesterday at a Rose Garden event dotted by children who accompanied their parents to work at the White House, Clinton said his daughter once had the wrong idea about how dad spent his days.
"When my daughter started preschool and she was asked what
her father did, she said that he works at McDonald's." Clinton said with a chuckle. "And so I decided I had better take her to work with me, even though I realized it would result in a diminution of my status in her eyes."
He was governor of Arkansas at the time.
"We want our daughters to believe, along with our sons, that they can aspire to do whatever it is they want to do, whatever they are willing to do, whatever they are prepared to make the effort to do." Clinton said.

Omega revives local tradition
By Chris Horton
charton@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Lawrence's first outdoor music festival has returned after a two-year hiatus.
Omega Fest will take place today, tomorrow and Sunday on a farm 10 minutes northeast of Lawrence. The festival continues a tradition that dates back several decades, said Michael O'Brien, Lawrence resident and Omega committee band coordinator.
"Having an outdoor festival in Lawrence has roots that go back 30 or 40 years." O'Brien said.
Previous festivals included the Mega Kegger, The Big Eat and Woodstump, he said.
This year's Omega Fest features 24 bands, several of which are Omega Fest veterans.
"I think we've got a great lineup," O'Brien said. "We're mixing in some new blood with people who have done it before."
Bands such as the Deal and the Lonesome Hound Dogs have played almost all 15 Omegas.
Tomorrow features a band roster composed mainly of bands new to the festival, he said. "There will be
a lot of up-and-coming bands like The Band That Saved the World, Creature Comforts and Ultimate Fakebook."
The festival's addition of more rock bands rather than jam-oriented bands appealed to Chris Tolle, guitarist and vocalist for Creature Comforts. The band plays at 3:15 tomorrow and also will play next weekend at Day on the Hill.
"This will be a younger look for Omega," Tolle said. "We're playing with a lot of our friends. It's going to be a big lovefelt between all the bands playing on Saturday."
Playing outdoors is preferable to a smoky bar or club, he said.
"We enjoy playing outside. You can generally play to more people." Tolle said.
Gretchen Edmunds, Lawrence resident and University of Kansas graduate, said she would be attending Omega Fest for several reasons.
"My boss at Yello Sub is in charge of food for the bands, and Virginia Keen, one of my favorite bands and good friends of mine, will be playing." Edmands said.
Camping again will be a part of

Omega Fest, O'Brien said. Parking will cost $5 per car and there will be eight campfire locations. Campers will not be allowed to start their own fires, he said.
Glass containers and animals will not be allowed at the festival site, he said. Gates at the farm will open at 2 p.m. today. Tickets cost $15, and maps to the farm are available at ticket locations.
Tickets are available at Love Garden, Creation Station, Jayhawk Spirit, Hy-Vee, Yello Sub, Alley Cat Records, Johnny's Tavern, C&C Drum and 7th Heaven.
D'oh! Simpsons 200th show to air
By Jennifer Roush Special to the Kansan
Ay caramba!
One of television's most lovable dysfunctional families will mark an important milestone this weekend. Fox will air the 200th new episode of The Simpsons at 8 p.m. Sunday.
Ullman Show.
In February, *The Simpsons* became the longest running animated prime time series on television, breaking a record previously held by *The Flintstones* for more than two decades.
Although catch phrases such as "Eat my shorts" and "Don't have a cow, man" no longer are ubiquitous, the show still is popular 10 years after its creation as filler material for The Tracey
The Internet has thousands of Web sites devoted to the show, its characters and creators. There are chat rooms, mailing lists and newsgroups devoted entirely to The Simpsons.
People who enjoy the show tend to be well-educated young adults such as Andrew Katz, De Kalb, Ill.. senior.
"The writers seem to be directing it at educated people," Katz said. "The show's definitely not for kids."
Katz said one of the things he enjoyed most about The Simpsons was its satirical take on issues. He also said he enjoyed the way jokes were stuffed into episodes.
"It's really radical and against
family values," he said. "And there's just lots of little stuff that they sneak in on you. You can watch an episode more than once and still catch stuff that you missed the first time around."
Tom Field, Olathe graduate student. agreed with Katz.
"I really like the way they work in literary references," he said. "They also spoof other works and put in really obscure things."
Field said the show was a nice break from the bustle of daily life. He said it was an outlet for his darker side.
"Mr. Burns is my favorite character," Field said. "He expresses the sort of avarice that most people don't. There's an evil side to Burns that most people don't have the guts to show."

Dance to put swing in spring

The University of Kansas Ballroom Dance Club will celebrate the rite of spring.
The group will throw its Spring Ball at 8 tonight in the Kansas Union Ballroom. Admission is $5 and everyone is invited.
"We're going to have mainly people dancing and a deejay playing only ballroom dance songs," said Tesla Hostetler, Topeka junior. "It's a chance to show off what we learned in the classes."
Hostetler said the ball would be co-sponsored by the Flamingo Dance Studio, which would provide two or three dance exhibition numbers. The ball also will feature a swing dance competition open to all participants.
The KU Ballroom Dance Club was formed about five years ago and meets from 2 to 4 p.m. Sundays in the Kansas Union Ballroom. Classes are free and open to public.
"Dancing is a lot of fun," said Shane Haas, Wellsville senior and one of the organizers of the club. "You can learn swing and cha-cha and merengue, go to clubs and impress people. It's an alternative to dancing by yourself, and you have to interact with the person you're dancing with."
Haas said the club had 30 to 40 participants of various ages. Each class is dedicated to teaching a specific dance. Some people just attend one or two classes to learn a certain dance, while others attend many classes.
Bernie and Kay Domann, Lawrence residents, volunteer their time to teach the classes. The teaching also rotates among advanced students.
Haas said, "We do everything from merengue, tango, salsa, waltz, cha-cha, foxtrot. We'll teach anything you can dance to, and we can find somebody to teach it."
Haas said the club was also a good place for meeting people and exercising. Movies such as Swingers, Shall We Dance?, Scent of a Woman and True Lies have made dance classes more popular. Haas said
He became involved with the club when he
took a class in square and ballroom dance. He said he joined because he saw dancing as an opportunity for people to practice their skills.
Advanced students perform in Kansas City, Mo., at the Leroy Walters studio. Hostetler said members always performed at Walter's Christmas shows. Some advanced students also have performed in national competitions, she said.
Bogdan Pathak, Albuquerque, N.M., senior, said he was looking forward to the Spring Ball.
"I find ballroom dancing a lot of fun and very relaxing," Pathak said. "The ball is a chance for me to see if what I learned all semester works."
Lied Center unveils playbill
Students have discount crack at early tickets
By Tamara Miller
miller@kanson.com
Kansan staff writer
The Lied Center announced the events for its 1988-99 season yesterday afternoon to a crowd of 70 patrons during a luncheon in the center's Seymour Gallery.
The guest speaker was Walter J. Turnbull, founder of The Boys Choir of Harlem. The boys choir performed a sold-out show last Friday at the center.
Turnbull spoke about the importance of the performing arts in education.
"We have this wonderful opportunity with art to transcend differences," he said.
Jackie Davis, director of the center, said next season would feature a new project: Cultural Countdown 98-99 — Latino Influences.
"Sometime we would like to do African-American influences, Asian influences," she said. "I think it's important to recognize the impact they have had on the arts."
Davis also said the center had a new campaign called "You Come First."
Karen Christilles, director of public relations, said the campaign would make single and season tickets available to students for half price. Students may purchase single tickets now.
"This is three weeks before they are available to the general public." Christilles said.
Some of next season's events include a collaborative performance by Bela Fleck, Mike Marshall and Edgar Meyer. The center will also feature the Broadway show *Patys!* and the St. Petersburg State Ice Ballet's *Romeo and Juliet*, Davis said.
Davis said the center wanted to use the campaign to let students know they were an important part of the center.
Tao Chan, Hong Kong graduate student in piano, is scheduled to perform September 20. Chan was the Vianna da Motta International Music Foundation honoree.
Chan said he was excited about performing at the center.
"I feel very proud since I live in Lawrence and have studied here for five years," he said.
Chan said he was frequent patron of the center and he was looking forward to *Madama Butterfly*, which will be performed by the New York City Opera National Company.
"The events in Lawrence are wonderful," he said. "There's something for everyone."
SUA to deliver Floating Flicks
By Marcelo Vilela
mville@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Some strange activities will take place in Potter Lake this evening.
The screening will start at dusk, around 8:30 p.m., said Brett Generaux, Kansas City, Kan., senior and SUA spectrum films coordinator.
Student Union Activities will sponsor its second Floating Flicks tonight. The event consists of a screen in the middle of the lake showing a free movie for the audience on shore.
"It's a really innovative idea, with kind of a drive in atmosphere," Generaux said. "It's a bizarre thing to begin with."
Last year, the water-bound movies featured were Creature From the Black Lagoon and The Abyss. About 200 people attended the screening, Generaux said. He said he was expecting 300 to 500 people to attend the event this year.
This year's movie will be Deliverance, a 1972 movie directed by John Boorman and starring John Voight and Burt Reynolds as businessmen who meet all kinds of dangers posed by nature and unfriendly locals during a canoe trip.
The 11-by-14-foot screen, made from four king-size bed sheets and covered with reflective material, floats on a plastic, Styrofoam and wood raft. Yesterday afternoon, SUA volunteers anchored the screen to the shore to keep it stable.
The screen will float 20 feet into the lake, positioned close to the middle. Generaux said.
"Last year was kind of a gamble, we didn't know if it was going to sink or not," Generaux said. "This year we will do more accurate adjustments."
Last year was the first year SUA sponsored the event. Floating Flicks replaced the drive-in SUA sponsored in the parking lot behind the Kansas Union a couple of years ago, Generaux said.
Fernanda Brasileiro, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil,
junior, helped build the screen yesterday afternoon.
"I'm excited because I've never seen a screen floating in a lake before." Brasileiro said. "It will give people the feeling that they're on a boat watching a movie."
Sliding opens the door to luck, chance
REVIEW
By Jeremy M. Doherty
jdoherty@kansan.com
Kansan movie critic
Peter Howitt should have a long career waiting for him in Hollywood.
His first movie, *Sliding Doors*, shows he's already mastered the Gimmick Concept.
The Gimmick Concept states that movies may possess an original idea, but then they have to weigh it down with a formulaic plot. Better yet, movies can use a combination of one or more plots.
In *Sliding Doors*, the gimmick is that the heroine's life plays itself out in two different planes of reality. In one, she dates Mr. Wrong and works in a dead-

end job. In the other, she's found love with a dreamboat and has started her own business.
For the first 45 minutes, Howitt juggles both strands impressively. After that, however, he runs out of fresh ideas, and the movie begins to rely upon tired scenarios from *Sleepless in Seattle*.
Gwyneth Paltrow hides her L.A. accent to play Helen, a London career woman who's just been fired from her job at an advertising company.
On the way home, Helen manages to hop onto the subway train just as the doors slide shut behind her. Arriving home earlier than usual, she finds her boyfriend Gerry (John Lynch) engaging in some midday hanky-panky with another woman (Jeanne Triplehorn). As time passes, she finds new love with a dashing fellow named James (John Hannah) and goes into business for herself.
At the same time, Howitt shows us what would have happened if Helen had missed the subway by only a few minutes. She returns to her apartment long after the other woman has left, and Gerry is able to cover up the afternoon frolic. Suspecting nothing and growing increasingly gloomy, Helen takes a job as a waitress and shuffles through life
What works here is the audience can
see how the most insignificant turn of events (the failure to catch a subway on time) somehow led to a profound change in one person's life.
There's a terrific scene where Howitt alternates between the two "Helens" in the same nightclub. While the "early" Helen mourns her breakup with Gerry, the "late" Helen sits a few yards away with the creep, believing any cockamamie story he tosses at her.
Unfortunately, Howitt put so much effort into his idea that he wound up painting himself into a corner. After all this work, he is interested only in getting audiences to hiss at the thoughtless Gerry. The only scenes with any energy feature both Paltrow and Hannah, who share some definite screen chemistry. Consequently, only about half of *Sliding Doors* is worth the trouble.
Men With Guns attacks audience perceptions
By Jeremy M. Doherty idoherty@kansan.com Kansan movie critic
A movie about fascist regimes and guerrilla armies in Latin America is something most unainstream directors wouldn't touch with a 10-foot pole. If they did, they'd have to throw in one-liners, car chases and a happy ending to keep the audience happy.
Only John Sayles, who has been writing and directing movies outside the Hollywood system for two decades, would dare to give the subject the proper respect. His latest, Men With Guns, is a sobering trip through an unnamed Central American country torn anart by political strife.
True to form, the maverick Sayles shies away from high drama and pat

conclusions. What's more, he's filmed this movie almost entirely in Spanish. The only Americans in the movie are a pair of bumbling, loud-mouthed minivan drivers who haven't got a clue as to what's really happening behind the scenes.
As in Lone Star, Sayles' remarkable 1996 thriller, the director uses a simple plot device to examine a larger issue. Fuentes (Federico Luppi), a widowed doctor, leaves his cushy city practice for a jungle vacation. While there, he
decides to check on some his students, who were part of a government-sponsored mission to work with impoverished Indians in the mountains.
Fuentes visits village after village but never finds his pupils. The locals retreat to their huts if he presses for information.
Along the way, an orphan boy (Dan Rivera Gonzalez) hitches a ride with Fuentes. The naive doctor learns from his companion the army has been committing near-genocide within the dirt-poor villages to quell an insurrection.
Most likely, Fuentes' students were among the victims who were burned to death with gasoline.
The characters in Men With Guns don't have as much personality as those in Lone Star. As a result, Men
With Guns engages the brain but not the heart. Sayles' strength as a writer always has been his knack for gritty, vivid characterizations, but this movie requires us to care about an issue rather than people.
He treats the issue with an intelligence not seen since Oliver Stone's Salvador. In a flashback sequence, Sayles shows Fuentes giving his students some last-minute advice before their departure.
Fuentes tells them the story of explorer Hernando Cortes, who conquered Mexico with only a handful of outnumbered soldiers. They had guns, and that proved to be enough.
Sayles makes us keenly aware of the modern-day parallels.
Men With Guns is a searing, painful look at the destructiveness of war and its effect on society.

Scrimmage prepares team for new season
By Kevin C. Wilson
Kansan sportswriter
Head football coach Terry Allen said the main goal he hoped to accomplish in the annual Blue-White scrimmage was simple.
Allen has reason to be concerned with the health of his team — 17 of his players will be held out of the full-contact scrimmage, which begins at 1 p.m. tomorrow at Haskell Indian Nations University.
"I just hope nobody gets hurt." Allen said.
Allen said none of the 17 were seriously injured during spring practice, but rather were trying to overcome lingering ailments. He said he expected all of his players to be 100 percent by the fall.
The format for the Blue-White game will be different from any of the scrimmages the Jayhawks have participated in during the spring, Allen said. The first-team offense and the first-team defense will compete together as a cohesive unit against the rest of the football team.
"Situations arise in a game that you can't prepare for in a scrimmage." Allen said. "Sometimes you have a turnover or a penalty that leads to a touchdown. You need to prepare for those game-tvne situations."
Allen said this was important because he wanted to prepare his team for actual game experience.
Senior offensive lineman Justin Glasgow said the game would give the team a chance to improve on its performance in previous scrimmages.
"We need to come together and all play on the same page," Glasgow said. "In the past we all haven't been there, and it shows. We have to play as a team."
Allen said the scrimmage would be conducted as if it were a real game, except the quarterbacks would be offlimits. He said the scrimmage would be a test of his players' abilities and composure.
"After all of the practices, you get out there by yourself without any coaches telling you what to do and the cream tends to rise to the top." Allen said. "We still have some areas where we need to answer some questions."
16 55
Overall, Allen said he was pleased with what his team had accomplished during the spring session, and the Jayhawks already were much further ahead than last year's team.
"I've really liked the progress of Zac Wegner," Allen said. "This spring he's got a better handle on what we expect out of the quarterback position. I also like the changes we have made with our schemes."
The end of spring practice is a relief for some members of the Kansas football team, but for others it is their last hurrah.
"It's bittersweet in a way," Glasgow said. "It's my last round of spring ball, and Saturday is my last spring scrimmage. It gives us a chance to get started in the offseason with getting stronger and that stuff, but it all goes by so fast."

Tennis begins tourney play
Women face K-State rematch; men take on Oklahoma State
By Erin Thompson
Kansan sportswriter
"It's going to be tough," said Kansas coach Roland Thorquvist. "We played in Manhattan three weeks ago, and they played us awfully close. They played without their No. 5 singles — throw her in and it'll be even closer."
The Kansas men's and women's tennis teams begin play at the Big 12 Conference tournament today.
The No. 2-seeded women will face will face Kansas State, which defeated Oklahoma State 5-1 in the first round yesterday.
The Jayhawks are coming off a disappointing weekend trip to Texas. They lost two matches in Texas, one to Texas A&M and one to fifth-ranked Texas.
"We played very well and consistently the whole year," he said. "We had injuries and overcame them. The regular season may not have ended the way we wanted it to but we feel good going into the Big 12 Championships."
Although the Jayhawks defeated the Wildcats 9-1 earlier this season, the Kansas women are not expecting an easy match against K-State.
Thornqvist said despite the losses he was pleased with the team's performance this season.
The trip allowed Kansas to see Texas' capabilities and Thornqvist said he thought his team would be able to defeat the Longhorns
"I'm very confident in my team." he said. "They've
shown great character all season in coming back from adversity. They learn a lot about what we are capable of."
Kansas will have the help of its top singles player, Kylie Hunt, this weekend. Hunt returned last Sunday after missing several matches because of an infected lung.
Thornqvist said although Hunt would return, she might not be 100 percent
"She's going to play. As far as her status — it's about 90 percent," he said. "The only issue will be if she can hit her first serve."
The Jayhawks will try not to overlook K-State or anyone else they play before the championship.
"That may have been part of the reason we lost against A&M last Saturday," Thornqvist said. "We were looking to the match on Sunday. We have to do a better job of focusing."
The men's tennis team, the No. 6 seed, will face third-seeded Oklahoma State today.
The 45th-ranked Jayhawks dropped a match against Oklahoma State 5-2 on March 1 at Alvamar Racquet Club.
The Jayhawks will have their work cut out for them. The 25th-ranked Oklahoma State has the top singles player in the nation, Pavel Kudrnac, and the top doubles team, Kudrnc and Martin Dvoreck.
The bracket Kansas is competing in could set up some close competition.
"The half Kansas is competing in should be close," said Texas coach Dave Snyder. "Oklahoma State, A&M, and Kansas are all good teams."
After finishing the regular season 8-13 overall and 4-5 in the Big 12, the Jayhawks see this weekend as an opportunity to redeem themselves, said coach Mark Riley.
Athletes can now hold jobs and play
Some fear doing both will take too much time
By Erin Thompson Kansan sportswriter
Student-athletes already feeling the time crunch of balancing school and practice can add finding time to work at a part-time job to that crunch.
Athletes will be able to work during their sports season, and the job can be arranged by the athletic department or by boosters.
The NCAA ruled Wednesday that athletes who have been enrolled for one year at a Division I university will be able to hold jobs and earn up to $2,000 a year.
Athletes can find jobs in the school's recreation department as long as the department's budget is separate from the athletic department's budget.
Kristina Johnson, a softball player, said she was pleased with the ruling and thought it would help with the cost of living.
"I think
NCAA
anything that would help the student- athlete is good," she said.
"I'm for any rule that helps a student," he said. "In some cases this might help. But I'm also fearful there is not enough time in a day during the season to work and to get an education."
Kansas football coach Terry Allen said he agreed that in some cases, such as if a student-athlete is married, this rule could help. But he said he thought it would require more time than a student may have.
For some student-athletes who do not receive aid from their parents or other sources, money is a problem, and they could benefit from the new rule, Johnson said.
But between balancing practice, school, and road trips, Johnson said she did not see how it would be possible to have a job.
"We spend a lot of time practicing and working with the sport during the season," she said. "I don't see how anyone could possibly make time for work. It's hard enough now with being on the road all the time."
One problem coaches face is the possibility boosters could see this rule as an opportunity to give athletes incentives to attend a certain school.
"Unintentionally, it has created a situation in which we're involving alumni where we've worked so hard to eliminate它," said Kansas athletic director Bob Frederick. "When they are providing the jobs, there is the potential for abuse."
In a football program that has up to 300 athletes, it would be difficult for the head coach and the administration to monitor all the athletes, Allen said.
Another problem that could arise from the new rule is the possibility recruits would demand a job from a coach or boosters before agreeing to attend an university. Allen said.
Also, the new rule creates an advantage for schools in a larger job market.
"For a school in the heartland like the University of Kansas, there could be an unlevel playing field," Frederick said. "A job that pays $6 an hour here could pay $10-12 in Los Angeles."
Whether an athlete can balance the time between practice, school and work would likely depend on the individual.
"I don't know if a lot of athletes will search for jobs," Johnson said. "It would be hard, depending on how much time they feel they have to spend working and if they can handle it."

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (April 24).
Put down roots this year. Get your domestic environment just the way you want it. Start by making a romantic commitment in May.
Aries: Today is a 7.
Pack up a bunch of stuff and head for the wide open spaces. If you've got a favorite place you like to go, and a favorite person you like to go with, that's definitely the best idea yet. If you can only have one of the above, make it a new person and favorite old location
Taurus; Today is a 6.
Looks like you could have company this weekend.
That's OK. Your place is a haven of comfort and security for a lot of your friends. That's just the way you like it. You go to a great deal of trouble to make sure that happens. Everybody loves your homemade treats.
Gemini: Today is a 6.
Dive into a good book this weekend. If you start today, you may not want to come out until Sunday night. You could learn a lot and have a marvelous time. There may be a couple of other things you have to take care of, too. Get them done quickly, or get somebody else to do them.
Cancer: Today is a 6.
1
It looks like something valuable is coming from far away. It could be a gift, but it looks more like payment for work done in the past. The bad news is that there may be money complications tonight. If you're going out, keep your wallet in a safe place.
Somebody who loves you very much is making quite a fuss. What's the best thing to do in a situation like this? Well, obviously, it's to make a big fuss back. If you get yourself a good mutual admiration society going, you'll know what it is to be blessed.
Leo: Today is a 7.
Virao: Today is a 7.
Saaittarius: Today is a 7.
Scorpio: Today is a 6.
Are you running a marathon, or what? If so, you'll need strength and endurance. You may not have much energy left for going out tonight, however. That could cause a problem with your mate. It looks like he or she wants to party, and you want to sleep. Com-promise. First one, then the other.
Your team is red hot. You're full of vitality and vigor. You might be the cheerleader rather than one of the players. You naturally spur others on to success. You're an excellent motivator as well as an excellent manager. So go for the gold!
Libra: Today is a 7.
Capricorn: Today is a 6.

Aquarius: Today is a 6.

LIVINGWATER
At last, a day when you can run and play and frail in the flowers. After you've finished your chores, that is. If you let your fingers do the walking, you'll save yourself a lot of time. And the more time you save, the sooner you can get out there on the playing field.
SCREEN CRAWFISH
Pisces: Today is a 7.
This is going to be a little bit easier. It looks like you've got a partner who can help. This person also is going to bring in a little more money. That's certainly welcome. Also, a friend comes up with a great idea this afternoon. Let people know what you need.
There are still several items on your list that you haven't been able to afford. One of them is something you want very much, and another is something your sweetheart or children desire. Whoever got the last treat has to wait; the other one gets the treat this time.
The last few days at work have been pretty peaceful. Now that the weekend is here, it's time to get busy. You may be involved in a project that's helping a friend, but it looks like there's money coming in, too. You're concerned about serving others, and that serves you as well.

The Kansas men's and women's track teams were scheduled to compete this weekend at the Penn Relays in Philadelphia and the Drake Relays in Des Moines, Iowa, but only one runner will be competing at Penn and a lust small group at Drake.
Track team to spread out in weekend meets
SPORTS BRIEFS AND SCORES
The majority of the team will compete in a meet at the University of Missouri-Kansas City.
Distance runner Ricardo Amezcu, who earned provisional qualifying marks for nationals last week at the Mount Sac Relays in Walnut, Calif., competed in the 10,000 meters last night at the Penn Relays.
Penn is generally one of our smaller meeters," said hurdles/sprints coach Sam Hume. "If the competition is as good at Drake, we'll send most of our people there."
A group of 15 to 20 will be competing at Drake, but the majority, 20 women and 15 men, will compete at UMKC tomorrow.
"We really try to get the kids into meets like Drake or Penn who have the caliber to compete in them," said head coach Gary Schwartz. "But then we also have to develop the rest of the team for conference and give as many athletes as much of a chance to compete as we can. I would prefer to keep everyone together, but the reality is sometimes we can't do that."
The UMKC Invitational will be held at the Sweeney Recreation Center on the UMKC campus. The meet will start at 8 a.m. and finish around 5 p.m.
"He injured it in training, but competing at Mount Sac aggravated it even more," Hume said. "With the conference meet in three weeks, we saw no point in taking any chances."
The team has been plagued by a string of minor injuries all season.
Note: Horoscopes have no basis in scientific fact and should be read for entertainment purposes only.
"Most of our relay people have minor strains, bumps and bruises," Hume said.
Decathlete Nathan Prenger is still bothered by a hamstring injury. Last weekend at Mount Sac, Prenger competed in only five of ten events of the decathlon and finished in 10th place with 3.335 points.
Long and triple jumper Marcus Scheid will not compete this weekend because of a strained hip flexor.
"He took a Cortisone shot earlier this week," Hume said. "It's never been super-serious, but it's never really gone away."

The Jayhawks were led by sophomore Brad Davis, who tied for third place with rounds of 69-73-71 and a total of 213. Davis finished just two strokes behind tournament champion Tom Richardson of Colorado State. It was Davis' fourth top-10 finish of the year and his seventh top-25 finish.

Senior 'Hawks revving for regionals
By Laura Bokenkroger
Kansan sportswriter
With the end of their senior season steadily approaching, three Kansas natives — centerfielder Julie True, shortstop Michelle Hubler and catcher Kristina Johnson — said playing softball for the Jayhawks had been a dream come true.
CITY
Growing up in Lawrence, Johnson began playing baseball when she was in first grade. When she was 14, she joined the Hummers, a team mostly composed of her teammates from Lawrence High School.
Tracy Bunge, who replaced Haack last year, took the Jayhawks to regionals her first season as head coach. Johnson said comparing the two coaching styles would be like comparing apples to oranges.
"Coach Bunge expects 100 per cent, but she's more easy-going," Johnson said.
Kansas

On the field, Johnson is the field general. She has called the pitches since she was freshman and said the pressure didn't affect her too much.
Johnson she used to watch the Jayhawks' softball games whenever she could. Her dream of playing for Kansas was within reach when former coach Kalum Haack began recruiting her when she was a junior.
"It was a dream come true because I always wanted to play for Haack," Johnson said. "He was tough and he expected a lot. Some girls could handle it and some couldn't."
"I think it's good for a catcher to call the game because they're sitting behind the plate." Johnson said. "It's whatever is working that day. Some days everything's working, some days nothing's working."
Johnson said her defensive consistency was her greatest contribution to the team, but her offense is just as strong. Hitting 303 this season, Johnson has the second best batting average on the team. She stands just one home run away from tying the school career record of 15.
Johnson said the team's 26-31 record this season was disappointing, but players' hopes for regional action hadn't been abandoned.

Johnson; Watched the Jayhawks as she grew up
"We have a young pitching staff,
and the pressure may have gotten to them a little bit." Johnson said. "But they've improved so much. We're optimistic going into the Big 12 Tournament. It could have been easy for our team to give up on this season, but we didn't."
POLYTECHNICIAN
The confidence comes partly from the experience of six seniors, she said, including teammates True and Hubler.
True: Recruited after stint at community college
True and Hubber both began playing T-ball at age four. Their
Michelle Hubler, Merrim senior, leads the Jayhawks with a .312 batting average. Contributed art
competitive careers began at 14, and they became teammates at Shawnee Mission North High School, where they won two consecutive state championships.
When she was 16, True joined Huber on the Blaze, a traveling team from Johnson County.
After high school, she played softball for Johnson County Community College for one year and had given up on her dream to play for the Jayhawks. But when Kansas played the community college, Haack saw potential in True and began recruiting her.
In games, True said she tried to find the humorous side of every situation and tried to keep everything light.
"I like to laugh a lot, and sometimes my teammates laugh with me." True said.
True said she had developed a strong work ethic and a sense of commitment through her softball career. After she graduates in May of 1999 with an English degree, she hopes to begin student teaching at Shawnee Mission North High School.
True said her defense was the strongest part of her game and her greatest athletic thrill was throw
ing a runner out at home.
"I love it when coaches send their runners on me," True said. "I love to see the fire in Kristina's eyes when we throw somebody out. I love it when coaches challenge me."
This summer, True and Hubler will help coach the Blaze, which is an 18-and-under team, with their former high school coach.
"If that pans out, I might look for a coaching job," Hubler said.
Hubler, who leads the team with a .312 batting average, said she was confident the Jayhawks could take two games from Missouri tomorrow and turn the season around in the Big 12 Tournament.
"I like pressure," Hubler said. "I feel that I'm more focused because I want to come through in the clutch. If we're in a tight ball game, I want the ball to be hit to me."
Hubler said her dad was the greatest influence in her life.
"Whenever I have a bad day or a bad game, he's always been there to get me up," she said. "He taught me how to play. I grew up on the ball fields with him, and he coached me, too."
Hubler said her biggest thrill came during her sophomore year in a game against Big 12 rival Oklahoma. In the late innings, with the bases loaded and two outs, she dove to catch a line drive and turned it into a double play bycatching the runner at first. The Jayhawks went on to win the game.
Senior experience in those situations will help the Jayhawks as they try to extend their season into regionals.
The Jayhawks take on the Missouri Tigers at noon and 2 p.m. tomorrow at Jayhawk Field. If the Jayhawks win both games, they could improve their seed in the Big 12 Tournament, which begins May 1.

Baseball team trying to improve
TENSION

Kansan sportswriter
With postseason hopes dead, the Kansas baseball team falls further into its daunting Big 12 Conference schedule with a weekend series against nationally-ranked Texas A&M at Hoglund-Maupin Stadium.
The Jayhawks (18-25) have lost 13 of 15 games in ducking out of the race for the Big 12 Tournament. The top six conference teams qualify, but Kansas was eliminated from contention after a three-game sweep this week by the Texas Longhorns in Austin, Texas.
Coach Bobby Randall said he was pleased with his relievers' effort, if not with their results.
"I feel badly for the pitchers that have lost leads," Randall said. "Those guys are throwing their hearts out, but things happen sometimes when you pitch the ninth."
Randall said he was searching inside himself for things he should be doing.
"I've been through tougher times, but this is a tough time," Randall said. "I feel like there are things I should be doing, now I need to figure out what they are."
Randall said starting pitching had improved lately, led by two effective outings by Rusty
Philbrick. Philbrick shut out Missouri last weekend and came back with a nine-inning game Wednesday against Texas, allowing just three runs.
"Rusty is attacking the strike zone like we always knew he would," Randall said. "He only walked one in nine innings against Texas — that's being in control."
Randall said despite the 13 of 15 losing streak, his team had been close to victory throughout the season.
"We're not that far from the best
teams," Randall said. "We could be up with those teams if we had more guys healthy and had a big hitter really step up in the middle of the order and drive in runs."
Injuries to key players like second baseman Andy Juday, outfielder Cliff Bryson, relief pitcher Casey Barrett and first baseman Chad King, have forced Randall to piece the team together. Players who were not expected to contribute this season have been rushed into the everyday lineup.
lost a lot of games from key players because of injuries," Randall said. "Nobody on this team has quit, and we never will. I respect my players because they won't stop fighting."
"I'm proud of the guys, but we've
Game times this weekend against Texas A&M will be 7 p.m. today, 2 p.m. tomorrow and 1 p.m. Sunday.

Transfer athletes compete to start
Football players join Jayhawks to play in Big 12
By Kevin C. Wilson Kansan sportswriter
The two junior college transfers who have joined the Kansas football team are doing exactly what head coach Terry Alien anticipated.
They are both competing for starting positions.
Offensive lineman John Oddonetto and defensive back Muhammad Abdul-Rahim have stepped in and made an immediate impact for the Jayhaws.
"I'm real pleased with both of them coming in and competing." Allen said. "That's what you expect when you recruit junior college players."
Oddonetto, a 6-foot-5-inch. 280
pound guard, transferred to Kansas after earning first-team JNCAA All-American honors as a sophomore last season at Eastern Arizona Community College. He was a two-year starter in junior college and said he chose Kansas instead of other schools from the Big 12 and the Big East because of many factors.
"I just love it," Oddonetto said. "it looks like a college campus, the coaching staff is great and the older players were really friendly and made me feel at home."
Allen said Oddonetto had fit right in on the Javhawks offensive line.
"He gives us another good athlete that can compete for a starting spot," Allen said. "His height and size can really help us."
Oddonetto said he would be able to help even more when he got a firm grasp on the offense.
"I will be more confident when I know all of my responsibilities, and I won't be so hesitant," Oddonetto said. "I can also be a leader. In
junior college, I was the guy who got everyone fired up, and I even made some of the offensive play calling from the guard position."
Oddoneton said he was looking forward to making the transition from the junior college ranks to the Big 12.
"It is the football conference in America," Oddetto told. "With all of the big rivalries it will be exciting."
Like Oddonetto, Abdul-Rahim said the conference was one of the main reasons he chose to attend Kansas.
"The competition in the Big 12 is the best," Abdul-Rahim said. "I had offers from the WAC and Big East, but when you look at Colorado, Nebraska and Kansas State, you have teams that are in the hunt for the national championship every year. I wanted to play against the best."
Abdul-Rahim transferred to Kansas after recording 47 tackles, four interceptions and a 11 pass breakups as a sophomore at Scotts
Abdul-Rahim said he was pleased with his decision to attend Kansas and his biggest challenge so far had come in the classroom.
dale Community College.
"Kansas is great," Abdul-Rahim said. "It's a good academic school and a major step up from junior college. I know I have to take care of the books before I can worry about the football."
Allen said he was pleased with Abdul-Rahim's performance on the football field.
"He's a good cover corner and thats an area where we still have questions," Allen said. "He can run and play man-to-man and has got great athletic ability."
Abul-Rahim said his experience was something that set him apart from some of the other players in the secondary.
"I only played man-to-man in junior college, so I know how to handle those types of situations," Abdul-Rahim said.

Spring game two-deep roster
Big 12 head to leave league
The Associated Press
M. D. Bradshaw/KANSAN
DALLAS — Big 12 Conference commissioner Steve Hatchell said yesterday he planned to leave the league he helped form shortly after the 3-year-old conference's spring meetings next month.
"Look to the first of June or the first of July," Hatchell told Dallas radio station KLIF-AM. "I've got my foot in the door with several different opportunities."
Hatchell later told The Associated Press a personnel change is best for him and the conference.
letic director at Kansas.
"I think the league is in great shape, and the league just goes onward and upward from here," he said. "It has been three long years, and I think the change would be good."
Among the names being mentioned as possible replacements if and when Hatchell leaves are Joe Castiglione, athletic director at Missouri, and Bob Frederick, athchose the league's first commissioner.
Frederick, a former chairman of the NCAA basketball tournament select i o n committee, finished runner-up to Hatchell when Big 12 presidents
Hatchell: resigning
from Big 12 commissioner post
Although Hatchell said he thought there was no pressure to leave, a source close to the situation told the AP pressure was being applied for Hatchell to step aside because of management and staff problems at Big 12 headquarters.
"I don't know that I'm a particularly easy person to work for," he said, adding that some employees
in the Dallas-based conference office were probably justified in their beliefs he was tough on them.
Big 12 chairman Ray Bowen, the Texas A&M president, said yesterday he was aware of some concern about internal issues, but no one had specifically brought those concerns to him.
"It's a high stress, high pressure job," Bowen said. "I don't hear anybody whining about that, but they'll tell you they are working themselves to death."
Bowen denied that Hatchell was being forced out.
Hatchell said he was being considered for a job with the Salt Lake City Olympic Organizing Committee, but would not discuss other possibilities.
Other than Nebraska's success in football, the Big 12 has been an athletic disappointment. However, the league has been a hit financially, signing television contracts valued at more than $150 million.
Gift-giving agent to settle suit
The Associated Press
HARRISBURG, Pa. — Jeff Nalley is no Jerry Maguire.
Not in the minds of two Pennsylvania prosecutors, anyway.
When sports agent Nalley showed Curtis Enis the money by buying the former Penn State football star more than $1,000 worth of clothing last year, he subsequently brought Enis' college football career to a screeching halt.
Angered that the agent helped Enis violate NCAA rules, local prosecutors went after Nalley and charged him yesterday with breaking a state law that bars sports agents from buying gifts for college athletes.
His attorney, Jerry Russo, said his client accepted the plea bargain so he could begin to put his life back
together.
Prosecutors said Nalley has agreed to accept a plea bargain in the case and will plead no contest to misdemeanor charges within a month. He could be sentenced to pay a $10,000 fine and probation.
"These inquiries and the resulting proceedings have extracted from Mr. Nalley and his family an enormous emotional and fiscal toll," Russo said. "Further, Mr. Nalley does not want his friend, Curtis Enis, and Curtis' devoted and supportive family, to be put through any further disparagement or grief."
Russo said Nalley would enter his no contest plea to one count of unlawful actions by athletic agents in Dauphin County before the end of next month.
It is also a violation of NCAA rules.
The saga began just before Christmas last year when fans spotted Enis and Nalley on a shopping spree at several suburban Harrisburg malls.
"Buying an athlete gifts in an attempt to become their agent is illegal and unethical," said Dauphin County District Attorney John Cherry.
Enis of Union City, Ohio, initially
denied accepting the gifts, including a suit he was to wear at an awards show. In December, however, he confessed to Penn State coach Joe Paterno he had taken the gifts.
Because of the allegations, Penn State suspended Enis from playing in this year's Citrus Bowl game, which Florida won 21-6. The university's third-best rusher of all time, with 1,363 yards and 19 touchdowns, subsequently apologized for lying and decided to turn pro. Saturday, Enis was selected by the Chicago Bears in the 1998 NFL draft.
Prosecutors said this was the first case in Pennsylvania under the 1988 state statute, but said they were disheartened they could not charge Enis as well.
"My anger is equally distributed in this case, both at the agent who preyed on Enis and on Enis, who knew what was going on," Cherry said.
He said Enis was evasive and did not cooperate with investigators during their investigation.

Sampras' quest for No.1 hurt by Monte Carlo loss
The Associated Press
MONTE CARLO, Monaco — Looking nothing like a player intent on reclaiming the No. 1 ranking, Pete Sampras was routed 6-1, 6-1 by Fabrice Santoro at the Monte Carlo Open yesterday — his worst loss in eight years.
"I'm pretty stunned," Sampras said. "I really dug myself a big hole. Every aspect of my game was not there. My serve wasn't there. My forehand wasn't there."
It was the third consecutive tournament in which Sampras has lost before the quarterfinals, and his
play does not bodd well for next month's French Open on clay courts.
"It's definitely not great for the confidence," Sampras said. "There is still a lot of room for improvement. All I can try to do is move on and learn from this and go from there."
Sampras, coming off a convincing victory against Andre Agassi Wednesday, dropped six straight games in the first set and lost his serve five of seven times in the match.
It was his worst loss since a 6-0, 6-1 defeat in 1990 to Jonas Svensson of Sweden.
"Just a bad day, and it showed," Sampras said. "I felt out there.
Sampras, ranked No. 2, still has a chance to overtake No. 1 Marcelo Rios. Rios has an injured elbow and is not playing at this tournament, meaning the Chilean will forfeit the top spot.
Clay is a tough surface. It is kind of lonely out there."
However, Petr Korda, ranked No. 3,
could pass Sampras and Riak to take
No. 1 if he makes it to the title match.
The Czech did his part yesterday,
defeating No. 14 seed Albert Costa 5-7,
6-4, 6-4 in another third-round
match. Korda, the second seed,
soundered a 5-4 lead in the first set.
If Korda loses before the final.
"It at this point, sure, it would be nice to get back up," Sampras said. "But I know deep down that it comes down to the end of the year."
Sampras returns to No. 1. Sampras has been No. 1 at the end of the last five years.
Sampras, the top seed, gave away 37 points of the 60 total points that Santoro won. Santoro, ranked 25th in the world, committed just eight errors.
Sampras made less than 40 percent of his first serves, and Santoro matched him in aces at two each. Santoro kept Sampras off balance with angled shots.
"I saw that he had big problems."
Santoro said. "He wasn't able to hit his forehand. This is a handicap for him because he makes most of his points with his forehand. At the end of the first set, I saw that he felt that if he continued that way, he would have no chance against me."
Santoro has made a habit beating Sampras on clay as well as defeating big names at Monte Carlo, Aggasi and Santoro are the only players to defeat Sampras three times on clay.
Santoro defeat Sampras at the Italian open in 1991 and 1995. He also holds victories against Thomas Muster and Sergi
Bruguera at Monte Carlo.
Santoro next faces compatriot Cedric Pioline, Pioline, who lost to Sampras in last year's Wimbledon final.
Semi-retired Boris Becker routed Marc Philippusissi 6-1, 6-1 to move into the quarterfinals against No. 12 seed Alberto Baresateguil.
"Against a player like Philippoussis, I am better from the back-court," Becker said. "I know that if I move him around I have a chance and that's what I did."
It is Becker's first quarterfinal since Wimbledon when he said he was retiring from Grand Slam play.
'Peyton-mania' passed to Colts
The Associated Press
INDIANAPOLIS — Peyton Manning already is a hit. So is the Indianapolis Colts' Web site which has had a half-million hits since the Tennessee quarterback became the No. 1 pick in the NFL draft.
Peyton-mania already is in full bloom, and victory-starved Colts fans will get their first look at Manning on Sunday when the team winds up its three-day minicamp at the RCA Dome.
"The interest in the team since Manning was picked has been unlike anything we've experienced previously," said Craig Kelley, Colts director of public relations. "This team has never received the attention we've gotten this week, and I only expect it to grow."

Meanwhile, the Web site of the Colts and the team's ticket office
"I'd estimate that we've had 500,000 hits on the site since he was drafted on Saturday," director of marketing Patrick Coyle said.
18
"There were 181,000 hits in the first 48 hours after the
Manning: Colts' draft pick has fans excited about team
selection," he said. "This is a new site (www.Colts.com), and we're real pleased with traffic. It will give displaced fans a chance to get all the news about our team."
The Colts earned the No. 1 pick in the draft by finishing a leagueworst 3-13 last season. Starting
quarterback Jim Harbaugh and backup Paul Justin were traded, and within minutes after the first pick on Saturday, coach Jim Mora awarded the starting job to Manning.
Since then, phones have been ringing constantly in the team's ticket and public relations offices. At Logo Athletic, the local company that produces NFL souvenir jerseys, they are reporting unprecedented orders for a draft pick. However, the jerseys can't be sold until Manning signs a contract or reaches an agreement with the player's union.
"We've already run 3,000 Manning jerseys, and they'll be shipped to stores as soon as an agreement is reached," Logo Athletic vice president Ed White said. "We never had this kind of demand so quickly for someone who hasn't taken a snap in a game."

NEW YORK — On the same day he faced the third reconstructive knee surgery of his career, Danny Manning of the Phoenix Suns won the NBA Sixth Man Award yesterday.
Manning tore a ligament in his right knee April 7 against Sacramento, ending his season. By then, though, he had done enough to capture the award, which honors the best bench player in the league.
Manning played as a reserve in 59 of his 70 games and averaged 13.5 points, 5.6 rebounds, 2 assists and 1.01 steals. He passed the 10,000-point plateau for his career last Nov. 26 against New Jersey and was 12th in the NBA in field goal percentage at .516 on 390-for-756.
On the Suns,
he was second
in field goal

Manning: Named NBA's best Sixth Man yesterday

Then, in 1994-95, his first season in Phoenix, he suffered the same injury to his left knee and again underwent reconstructive surgery.
He came back last season as the Suns sixth man and continued in that role this season. In the voting by a panel of sports writers and broadcasters throughout the United States and Canada, Manning received 57 of a possible 116 votes. Kobe Bryant of the Los Angeles Lakers was second with 31 votes and Dale Ellis of the Seattle SuperSonics finished third with 21 votes.
Seven players received votes including last year's winner, John Starks of New York (3), Jerry Stackhouse of Detroit (2), Michael Curry of Milwaukee (1) and Tracy Murray of Washington (1).

All-Star Sonic to play in first playoff game
The Associated Press
SEATTLE — Finally, Vin Baker's playoff time has arrived.
After four seasons of frustration in Milwaukee, the All-Star power forward will appear in his first NBA playoff game tonight when his new team, the Seattle SuperSonics, faces the Minnesota Timberwolves in a first-round opener.
The best-of-five series continues here Sunday night before moving to Minneapolis for Game Three Tuesday night.
"I'll probably have to call a timeout to calm him down." coach George Karl said yesterday of his team's top scorer and leading rebounder. "He'll probably be too excited and play too hard."
Baker averaged 19.2 points and eight rebounds this season after being acquired in a three-team trade in September that sent disgruntled Shawn Kemp to Cleveland. The Sonics could not have been happier.
Baker helped Seattle win 61 games plus its third straight Pacific Division title. That more than made up for Baker's four seasons of futility in Milwaukee, where his teams compiled a 122-216 record.
This week, All-Star point guard Gary Payton and other Sonics veterans have tried to keep the pressure off Baker.
"You don't go out and try to pound his head about no playoffs." Pavton said.
Until this season, the 6-foot-11 Baker has been a big success on teams that were not successful. He averaged 28.3 points as a college senior and 27.6 as a junior, but Hartford did not make the NCAA Tournament. He was the eighth selection in the 1993 draft.
"I won't be nervous at all," Baker said of his first playoff game. "I think people will be more nervous playing against me than I'll be playing against
anybody
"But being an All-Star in Milwaukee is a lot different than being an All-Star on a division championship team." he said.
The Sonics, the No. 2 seed in the West behind Utah, are solid favorites against a Wolves team that is ailing in the middle. Seattle was 3-1 against Minnesota during the regular season.
The Wolves are in the playoffs for the second straight season. They were swept by Houston in the first round last year.
Seven-footer Stanley Roberts missed the Wolves' final six regular-season games because of a lower back strain and 6-11 Cherokee Parks sat out Minnesota's regular-season finale last weekend because of a strained left hip.
The Wolves worked out here yesterday. Afterward, coach Flip Saunders said he will start either Bill Curley or Tom Hammonds, both 6-9, at center tonight.
"Size-wise, we're a glorified CBA team." Saunders said.
He said the Wolves, with Roberts and Parks hurting, would not be able to waste fouls on Baker, who struggled at the free-throw line this season at 59 percent.
"We can't predicate our defensive philosophy on making him shoot free throws," Saunders said.
Hammonds was a member of the 1994 Denver Nuggets team that shocked Seattle in the first round of the playoffs. The Nuggets were a No. 8 seed then and the Sonics a No. 1.
"I've been emphasizing that if we come in and play physical, a lower seed can win," Hammonds said. "We proved it when I was in Denver."
The Sonics are not a good rebounding team. In fact, they were last in the league in rebounding this season.
Knicks, Heat spark tension
The Associated Press
MIAMI — This could be ugly, because it's difficult to play basketball with a clenched fist.
Playoffs to reignite rivalry between foes
When the Miami Heat and New York Knicks renew their rivalry tonight in the NBA playoffs, jaws will be flapping and elbows flying. The teams may not be the league's best, but they want to be the badest.
"This is. 'We hate your guts.' Heat point guard Tim Hardaway said. "We have to match their edge and hate them as much as they hate us. It's going to be a war."
Hard feelings date back to Heat coach Pat Riley's acrimonious departure from New York in 1995.
Then came last year's stormy seven-game playoff clash, which included a brawl in Game 5 and ensuing suspensions that probably cost the Knicks the series.
Four games between the teams this season produced a 2:2 split, seven technical fouls, three flagrant fouls and one suspension. The Knicks were robbed in the most recent meeting when officials erroneously disallowed a last-second, game-winning shot by New York's Allan Houston.
"We've had a history in our games that raises the ante a little," Riley said. "It's probably one of the best first-round series in a long time."
New York, which finished 12 games behind Atlantic Division champion Miami, will try to become the first No. 7 seed to defeat a No. 2 seed in the Eastern Conference playoffs.
The Knicks must do it without Patrick Ewing, Coach Jeff Van Gundy said his All-Star center.
still recovering from w r i s t surgery in December, will sit out the series. With Ewing sidelined, New York appears to have an advantage
only at shooting guard, where Houston gets the edge with Voshon Lenard. The Heat counter with multiple scoring options in Hardaway, Alonzo Mourning and Jamal Mashburn, who recently returned after missing 31 games because of a fractured thumb.
"They should be a heavy favorite." Van Gundy said. "They're a No. 2 seed, they're healthy, and we're without our best player."
their games against New York during the regular season was a close, bruising battle, with neither team reaching 90 points.
"When we play physical, they don't like it," Knicks guard Chris Childs said. "They can't match up with us. If you don't want to play a physical game, play tennis."
But the Heat plan to put up a fight. Led by the sullen Mourning, they can match the Knicks scowl for scowl and answer each push with a shove.
"When you play a team like the Knicks, you can't be soft," Heat forward P.J. Brown said.
Brown sparked the brawl in Game 5 last year when he tossed guard Charlie Ward into a row of photographers. The memory of Ward cartwheeling off the court fuels anticipation for the combustible matchup beginning today.
"I don't think it'll be ugly," Brown said. "I think it'll be real smooth and cool."
Lakers defend coach's performance
The Associated Press
INGLEWOOD, Calif. — Criticism seems to follow Los Angeles Lakers coach Del Harris everywhere, a circumstance he finds puzzling.
Maybe it is because, as good friend Rick Majerus said he believes, Harris has the toughest job in basketball.
Maybe it is because he lacks the championships of a Phil Jackson, the dynamism of a Pat Riley or the charisma of a Rick Pitino.
Or maybe it is because he does not have the reputation of a Chuck Daly or the playing history of a Larry Bird.
LOS ANGELES
LAKERS
He certainly does not command the lofty salary of any of those five coaches.
Maybe it is just simply a matter of high expectations for a team that won five NBA titles in the 1980s.
When the Lakers concluded a 3-3 road trip seven weeks ago, it was reported that Harris, a constant target on radio talk shows, was on the verge of being fired.
"I don't even know what the criticism is," he said. "What am I going to say?"
Harris just does not get it.
The Lakers have improved in each of the four years under Harris.
Harris said.
"I feel comfortable in saying if Shaquille (O'Neal) had played 80 games, like Michael Jordan, Karl Malone and Gary Payton did, we would have had the best record in the league."
Two more victories and the youthful Lakers (61-21), who face Tonight on tonight in the opener of a first-round playoff, would
have accomplished the feat.
Having won 22 of their final 25 games, the Lakers are one of the NBA's hottest teams entering the playoffs. Yet some people would like to see him gone.
"It's hard for me to talk about myself." the 60-year-old coach said. "Coaches around the country, my peers in the NBA, have known about me through my books, clinic talks, as one of the guys who knows about the game of basketball. That's what really matters to me as opposed to some unemployed guy who calls in to some radio talk show to some guy who's never coached a game and probably never plowed the game, either."
Harris was surprised by the report of his imminent dismissal. He said Lakers owner Jerry Buss told him the story was ridiculous.
General managed Mitch Kupchak said, "The story was not true. And the criticism does not make sense to me. To win 60 games is incredible considering our youth, considering our injuries."
Harris said he thought this was the best coaching job he had done.
"Nobody's ever won a championship with this
young a group," he said. "Our development over the last six weeks gives us hope that we might be able to do that."
Asked if he was concerned about his future, Harris said, "I'm not fighting for a job, all I'm trying to do is win the next game. The teams that have stayed together with their players and coaches are the teams to beat right now. We have the ability to keep a nucleus here for a long time."
Majerus, who coached Utah to the NCAA championship game last month, said Harris had been an important part of his life.
"There might be a better coach and a better guy in this world, but I know there's not a better guy who coaches, not a better father, not a better caring person for his players," said Majerus, an assistant coach with Harris for the Milwaukee Bucks 11 years ago. "The only bad thing I can say about Del is that he might be too good a person. He never lashes out."
All-Star Lakers guard Eddie Jones agreed.
"Del's one of those coaches who's quiet, soft-spoken, doesn't really get wild," Jones said. "He tries to do everything with a cool head. All this stuff he's been through in the last six weeks, it's been crazy."
Reserve forward Corie Blount calls Harris one of the NBA's best coaches.

Cardinal player back on track
Jordan returns after recovery from injuries
The Associated Press
ST. LOUIS — Brian Jordan, a crossover success story who began his professional career in the NFL, relied on a track man to get back to the major leagues.
Jordan, who missed most of last season with wrist and back injuries, is back to being a catalyst with the St. Louis Cardinals. In the team's 13-7 start he was batting .288 with two home runs and 13 RBIs and making aggressive plays in the field.
"He didn't play much last year and
"So, yes, it looks like he's back."
he's going to need some time to get his timing back," general manager Walt Jocketty said. "But he's played great defense and made some outstanding throws.
Jordan says he ows it all to Bobby Kersee, the track trainer and husband of Olympic champion Jackie Joyner-Kersee. The two worked out all winter, and Kersee has continued to work with Jordan during the season.
"I'm heading in the right direction, and Bobby is staying on my butt, so it's going to happen," Jordan said. "That was the best thing that could have happened to me, meeting Bobby and working with him all winter."
ST. LOUIS
CARDINALS
Two years ago, Kersee helped St. Louis Blues goalie Grant Fuhr come back from a career-threatening
knee injury and return to iron man status.
"I knew all about the story," Jordan said. "When he strapped me
out like a pretzel and as I was screaming, he said "This is what I did for Grant."
Fuhr sympathizes with Jordan.
"He knows the suffering that can happen," Fuhr said. "But it's worth it."
Just like Führ did, Jordan dreads Kersez's efforts.
"At that particular moment, I'll still be crying about how much pain I'm in," Jordan said. "But in the long run I feel great running and it really loosens me up."
Jordan got his sprinter's speed
back by running with another Olympian, Gall Devers, in the offseason.
In 1986, when the Cardinals ended up one game short of the World Series, Jordan was the team's best player with a seemingly endless supply of clutch hits and acrobatic defensive plays in right field. He batted .304 with 17 homers and 110 RBIs.
Jordan is not over the back pain vet.
"I'm waking up now and feeling a lot of pain," he said. "But it's going to start healing, which is important."
Last year, he had nothing but trouble that began in spring training when he hurt his back. The injury was not correctly diagnosed as a bulging disc until August when he went on the disabled list for the third time—this time for good.
His wrist is not 100 percent, either. But both are close enough that Jordan has been able to hit his first two homers since 1996.
World Cup teams tweak rosters
Injuries, poor play motivate coaches
The Associated Press
DUBLIN, Ireland — Gabriel Batisuta is likely to be top scorer at the World Cup.
图
Who thinks so?
Gabriel Batistuta.
"My big ambition is to be the top scorer there, the Argentine striker said yesterday after helping his team to a comfortable 2-0 victory over Ireland at Dublin's Lansdowne Road.
"Ihad the same hope in the United States four years ago, but we went out of the tournament too early," Batistua said.
"Now I think we have a better chance this time."
TOKYO — Romario reveals all.
The Brazilian soccer star, who guided his nation to a record fourth World Cup title four years ago, has shed his shirt and shorts for a television advertisement in Japan.
With the World Cup this summer,
Sumitomo Rubber Industries chose
the Brazilian star to boost its
international image. Last year, their
featured Chicago Bulls forward
Dennis Rodman bouncing a tire.
In this year's ad, which is only being shown in Japan, Romario turns from a skeleton into a running figure who briefly appears nude.
Romario, who was paid $770,000 for the ad, actually wore swimming trunks for the commercial, said Hiroshi Watanabe, company spokesman.

THE BEANBURGER
LIVERPOOL, England — Liver-
Coventry's Dion Dublin in a league game last weekend, England coach Glenn Hoddle said Redknapp would miss the rest of the season and be unavailable for the June 10-July 12 World Cup.
Liverpool manager Roy Evans was less pessimistic.
"Jamie is improving all the time," Evans said yesterday. "It's a minor strain of the lateral ligament."
"When people say he's out for the season it sounds very dramatic, but the season only has three weeks to
go, and we still have high hopes of Jamie taking part in our last games."
in the Derby. The first was Secretariat in 1973.
ROME — His nickname is if"Uncle," and he's certainly old enough to be one to most of Italy's national team players.
Glusepe Bergomi, a member of Italy's 1982 champions but away from the team since 1991, could be a surprise roster addition for the World Cup, Italian newspapers reported yesterday.
With central back Ciro Ferrara out of the tournament with a broken leg and the defense showing signs of weakness, coach Cesare Maldini may add the 34-year-old Bergomi as a reserve. His experience and steady play would help settle a unit that features two starters in their early 20s, Fabio Cannavaro and Alessandro Nesta.
Unbeaten colts to race in Derby
The Associated Press
LOUISVILLE, Ky. — There will be something new in this year's Kentucky Derby, but once the gate opens the race should be like it is almost every year — a heart-pounding charge in which talent often needs the strong support of luck.
The cast for the 124th Derby on May 2 is a rich mix of speed horses, middle-of-the-pack horses and stretch runners.
Indian Charlie and Event of the Year each are undefeated in four starts.
Among the cast in what is a 17-horse field are two unbeaten colts and a Horse of the Year.
Favorite Trick, who won the honor as a 2-year-old, will be only the second Horse of the Year to run
Kentucky Derby
"It's still luck," said Bob Baffert, trainer of Indian Charlie and Real
The new wrinkle will be the postposition draw, which will be held from 4 to 5 p.m. Wednesday on ESPN.
In previous years, the number drawn for a horse specified the post position. This year, however, if a horse draws No. 3, it means his connections will have the third pick as to what post position they want.
Quiet of the Santa Anita Derby
"I don't think it matters," Nick Zito said. Zita trains in Blue Grass Stakes winner Halory Hunter, whose principal owner is Rick Pitino, coach of the NBA Boston Celtics.
While there will be several proven 3-year-olds in the field, there also will be the usual suspects who make the Derby both interesting and crowded.
For instance, there is National alore, believed to be history's richest maiden. The colt, bred, owned and trained by Cho Myung-Kwan, a native of South Korea, is winless in 15 career starts, but he has earned $283,767. Most of the money was earned with third-place finishes in the Breeders' Cup Juvenile and the Hollywood Futurity.
whose owners, Madeline Paulson and Jenny Craig, want a Derby horse. Paulson is the wife of Allen Paulson, who raced the great Cigar.
Then there is Rock and Roll,
Favorite Trick's winning streak was snapped at nine in his second start this year when he finished third, a neck behind Victory Gallop, in the Arkansas Derby. The loss, however, has not made anybody consider Favorite Trick for the Kentucky Derby on a track where he won three times last year.
Rock and Roll is trained by Bill Mott, trainer of Favorite Trick. Mott also trained Cigar, who is retired.
The upset earned Victory Gallop a trip to Kentucky. Irish-bred Hanuman Highway, second in the Arkansas Derby, also is being pointed to the Kentucky Derby.
Through sprains, twists and spasms, Iron Man plays on
The Associated Press
BALTIMORE — Every now and then Cal Ripken feels a twinge in his lower back, a reminder that he's a mere mortal and not really an Iron Man.
Not literally, anyway.
Ripken's uncanny threshold for pain is not the only reason he hasn't missed a game for the Baltimore Orioles since May 29, 1982. His tireless work ethic and unwavering consistency have made it easy for the eight managers he's played for to write his name on the lineup card every day.
Ripken, who is expected to make his 2,500th consecutive start tomorrow night, isn't impervious to pain. During his incredible streak he has endured a sprained left ankle, a twisted right ankle, a twisted right knee and severe lower back spasms.
It's been more than 21/2 years since Ripken passed Lou Gehrig's seemingly unbreakable major league record of 2,130 consecutive games. When he takes the field at third base tomorrow night against the Oakland Athletics, Ripken's 2,500-game run will be larger than the next 22 current streaks combined.
"Twenty-five hundred? It's a round number, and I'm proud of it," Ripken said. "I'm proud I can still go out and play every day. The toughest thing is to keep a fresh approach."
Ripken, 37, knows there soon will be a day when he will have to fight to hold onto the starting job. That, and the Orioles' quest to get into the World Series for the first time since 1983, keep him motivated.
"When I'm sweating on the field and think I really don't have to work that hard, I start to think that my career will be over before I know it and how good I'm going to feel when we have success," he said. "The rewards keep me running hard."
There was a time last summer when Ripken wasn't certain he could walk, let alone run. A herniated disk in his back was pressing against a nerve that runs down his left leg, and doctors prescribed six to eight weeks of rest.
Ripken immediately rejected the advice, although he almost removed himself from a game in Oakland on Aug. 2. He stuck it out, then singled in his next atbat and homered the next day.
"That was the hardest injury of my whole career," Ripken said. "The dilemma had nothing to do with the streak. We were in first
"When I'm sweating on the field and think I really don't have to work that hard, I start to think that my career will be over before I know it and how good I'm going to feel when we have success."
Cal Ripken Baltimore Orioles' third baseman
place and headed for the playoffs — a situation every baseball player wants to be in — so I decided I had to play through the pain."
Although he sometimes ached so much he couldn't sit down in the dugout, Ripken made it through the season. He then spurned off-season surgery, instead working diligently to strengthen his back. The regimen continued this spring, when he hoisted a medicine ball thousands of times before during
Orioles
"I wish I could put a camera on Cal from the time he walks into the ballpark to the time
and after exhibition games.
he leaves," Orioles manager Ray Miller said. "I'd show it to a minor league player and say, 'If you want to be a great player like a Lou Gehrig or a Babe Ruth, just do this every day.' His work ethic is just phenomenal."
Ripken was hitting .289 with 13 RBIs in 20 games through yesterday, but as soon as he slips into a slump, detractors of the streak will insist that he voluntarily sit himself down.
"Early on in the streak, the criticism kind of bothered me. Maybe it was immaturity on my part," Ripken said. "I thought it was so unfair. Now that I've dealt with it for a number of years, it doesn't make me angry. It just makes me focus."
The criticism is easier to deal with than back spasms. Ripken was prepared to sit out a game in July last summer before Brady Anderson, his closest friend on the team, begged him to at least test the back in warm-ups before deciding.
Ripken played the entire game
Kipken played the entire game: "Talk about a guy who can grind it out," Anderson said. "He told me afterwards, 'Maybe I thought I really was the Iron Man.'"

THE STUDENT NEWSPAPER OF THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS
Attention deficit disorder
(USPS 650-640)
FINAL EXAM
It's not just for children. Some students are tortured by their wandering minds.
Story by Erin Thompson Illustration by Matt Woodruff
emmifer Mai sits down, opens her marketing book, and begins to read. There are no thoughts of having to make her bed. No thoughts of split ends. She sits
and studies for hours at a time.
Study time may be something that students dread, but most students do not consider it an excruciating task.
Until four weeks ago, reading a textbook was similar to a mid-evil torture device for Mai, Hoisington junior.
Mai was diagnosed with attention deficit disorder in February. Since her diagnosis, Mai's life has come into focus. Now she can do things most people wouldn't think twice about. She can sit through all of "Beverly Hills 90210" since she began treating her disorder.
"I can read a textbook for four hours straight without even getting up to do anything," she said. "When before I'd sit there for 10 minutes and realize, oh, I need to make my bed, or 'I need to load the dishwasher,' or something like that."
Although the disorder is usually diagnosed between the ages of 10 and 11, it does not simply disappear with age and maturity as doctors once thought. In fact, it is becoming more commonly diagnosed in young adults.
The disorder has gained a reputation for being an excuse. It isn't a real problem, people say. It's just an excuse for bad grades or laziness, critics say.
David Holmes, professor of psychology at the University of Kansas, concedes that students who are getting bad grades likely could use the disorder as an excuse.
The disorder may conjure images of small kids running wild on the playground, second graders not being able to sit still, seventh graders constantly jumping out of their seats.
"I do think, however, that a lot of students will say 'Oh gee. I must have ADD' if they are not getting good grades," he said. "But the fact that some people misattribate their poor performance to the disorder does not mean that the disorder does not exist."
The diagnosis
was all of them, so that's why I went."
Mai had the misconception that it was a childhood disorder. But she stumbled upon a magazine article about ADD. When she read it, she recognized herself.
The diagnosis is one of the most difficult aspects of the disorder. There is nothing that shows up on a brain scan that indicates someone cannot sit still and read a textbook. There is no blood level that determines if someone has the right chemistry to sit and listen to
"I had no idea that adults even had it," she said. "I thought it was basically kids, or like junior high kids. I read an article that said if you see four or five out of these things you might go see a doctor. And I
a lecture about supply and demand.
"There isn't a specific test," Holmes said. "It's very difficult to diagnose. That's why a lot of students attribute their poor performance to it."
He admits it can be hard to demonstrate that the disorder is not simply poor performance.
Those diagnosed with the disorder have been found to have lower levels of metabolism in the area of the brain that controls attention and motor activity. When this area of the brain is not fully active, it does not inhibit quick shifts in attention.

Graves to decide fate of abortions
By Brandon Copple
bcoppe@kanson.com
Kanson staff writer
You know the feeling. You've got an assignment sitting there on your desk that you eventually will have to do, but you really don't want to deal with it so you put it off until the day it's due.
Kansas Governor Bill Graves knows how you feel. Today Graves must either sign or veto anti-abortion legislation that he has deliberated about for 10 days.
The bill would prohibit partial birth abortions and abortions of any fetus which could survive outside the womb. In either case, abortions would be permitted when necessary to prevent death or serious injury to the mother.
Graves, who will run for reelection in the fall, is under considerable pressure from both sides.
Graves:decides today on legislation
PETER L. HOGAN
Andrea Van Dyke, Atchison
sophomore and president of KU Students for Life, said she had asked members of her group to phone or e-mail Graves and to urge him not to veto the bill.
Sarah Page, Prairie Village senior and co-coordinator for KU Pro-Choice Coalition, said she planned to present Graves with a petition asking him to veto the bill. She said she collected about 60 signatures to send to Graves today.
"He's been bombarded with phone calls, e-mails, letters," Page said. "Whatever he does, he's not going to take this decision lightly."
All of the public input is especially meaningful because Graves is running for re-election this year. It appears that his greatest challenge will come from within the Republican party in the August primary, and if so, the key issue will most likely be abortion.
Van Dyke said Graves' decision today on the abortion bill could affect the way she votes this year.
"This is a primary issue for me that I will definitely take into consideration when I vote," she said. "A lot of people in our group only vote for pro-life candidates, so if he vetoes the bill he's not going to get their votes."
Page said it was important to make the case for a woman's right to choose.
"I's important that we protect the right of all people to choose," she said. "As a woman, I feel the government shouldn't have more control over my body than it already does. That's more important to me than politics."
ABORTION BILL
Gov. Graves must sign or veto, today, a bill that PROHIBITS:
- Abortions on viable fetuses — viable means that there is "a reasonable probability that the life of the child can be continued outside the mother's womb" with or without artificial life support
- Partial birth abortion — means abortion by evacuation of the contents of a fetus' skin.
with the means to commit suicide or participating in the act of another person's suicide

Stompdown '98 rocks Liberty Hall
African culture honored despite sound problems
By Carl Kaminski

Kansas staff writer
The National Panhellenic Council filled Liberty Hall Saturday night for its annual step show. Stompdown'98.
The historically Black greek letter organizations kept the crowd entertained for three hours, despite being plagued with technical difficulties all night.
The performers overcame problems with the microphone and the sound system, performing routines that some of them had been perfecting since last summer.
At one point, members of Omega Psi Phi fraternity put on an impromptu routine in the orchestra sections while the sound system was being worked on. Omega Psi Phi did not perform during the show.
The routines are a combination of dance, tap, R&B and chanting that at times
"It's really hard to explain what a step show is really," Ericka Morris, outgoing NPHC president and Lawrence sophomore.
involve the entire crowd.
Stepping has been a ritual of black greek letter organizations since the 1950s, Page said.
Each organization has its own style of stepping that no other group is supposed to copy without permission.
Although the groups take their shows to competitions all over the country, last night's show was strictly for entertainment, said Robert Page, NPHC adviser.
Men from the Interfraternity Council were invited to try stepping at the end of
He said the shows celebrate African culture and the students' pride in their organizations.
The crowd got a surprise late in the night when women from Pi Beta Phi and Alpha Gamma Delta sororities showed their support by joining Dion Jones, St. Croix, Virgin Islands, junior, and Mike Owens, Kansas City, Kan., senior, of Iota Phi Theta and putting on their own routine.
Tickets for the show cost $5 for students and $7 for the public at the SUA box office, and $7 for everybody at the door.
the night.
"This is what they are known for," Lung Huang, IFC vice president for public relations and Goodland junior. "They were nice enough to let us go out there and do our steps."
Morris said that, traditionally, all the money earned at the shows was donated to charities such as the Ronald McDonald House, Head Start and Hilltop, but this year was different. The earnings from this show are going to be used to make next year's show even bigger.
4.
Page said that he hopes to reserve the Lied Center next year for a show big enough to earn the $10,000 required to endow a scholarship.
The scholarship will be named for Latina Sullivan, Page said. Sullivan was a member of a Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc., and the editor of The University Daily Kansan last summer. She died last summer of a severe asthma attack.

Oliver Hall resident sees masturbator in bathroom
A man was masturbating in Oliver Hall's seventh floor women's bathroom Wednesday morning, the University of Kansas Office of Public Safety said.
Officer James Anguiano said that an 18-year-old female Oliver resident had come out of the shower just after 7 a.m. She saw a white male between 18 and 22 years old masturbating, he said.
"If this has happened to anybody else, give the police department a call," Anguiano said.
Rance Melton, Oliver's complex director, said that the situation was unfortunate and that he encouraged students to be observant of anyone who did not belong in the hall.
The building's security hours are between 11 p.m. and 7 a.m., but it is unknown when the suspect entered, Melton said.
"We're trying to do what we can," Melton said.

WASHINGTON — The Cassini spacecraft came so close to Venus on Sunday that it was able to add another 16,300 mph to its own velocity, shortening its scheduled trip to Saturn.
Spacecraft gains velocity after brush with Venus
The spacecraft, part of the international space mission of NASA, the European Space Agency and the Italian Space Agency, passed within 176 miles of Venus Sunday morning, completing a "gravity assist" in which
Cassini uses a planet's gravity like a slingshot.
"All indications are that the spacecraft did exactly what we expected," said Ronald Draper, deputy program manager at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena.
A second Venus "gravity assist" is set for June 24, 1999, followed by a close pass by Earth in August 1999 and another past Jupiter in 2000. Each will add speed to allow Cassini's arrival at Saturn on July 1, 2004.
Cassini, now moving at 87,000 mph, was launched in October for a seven-year, 2.2 billion-mile trip. The plutonium-powered spacecraft will spend four years exploring Saturn, its rings and frozen moons. It is carrying the European Space Agency's Huygens probe, which will land on Titan, the largest of those moons.
A radar system eventually will produce images of Titan, the only moon in the solar system with a thick nitrogen atmosphere like Earth's.

Russia still apologizing 12 years after Chernoboy
MOSCOW— With solemn ceremonies and rallies, Ukraine, Russia and Belarus on Sunday marked the 12th anniversary of the Chernobyl nuclear disaster that continues to haunt the three former Soviet republics.
Ukrainian President Leonid Kuchma declared that his country would adhere to pledges to close the ill-fated nuclear power plant.
Chernobyl's Reactor No. 4 exploded during a test April 26, 1986, killing at least 32 people in the immediate blast and sending a deadly cloud of radiation across
large sections of Russia and Eurone.
In a speech broadcast nationwide, Kuchma estimated the damage suffered by Ukraine at up to $130 billion, and said Kiev had to spend $1 billion a year to deal with the consequences of the accident.
The health ministry says that almost 3,600 Ukrainians who took part in the cleanup effort have died from radiation exposure. Private groups say the death toll is at least twice as high.
Russian officials say an estimated 10,000 Russian "liquidators" — those involved in the clean-up — have died, and thousands more became invalids.

Pride Week
The Brown Bag Lunch Dug, "The Prom You Never Had" and the Fifth Annual Human Rights March and Rally mark the end of a suc-
show and the prom took place Friday. The Brown Bag Drag, which was conducted outside the Kansas Union, featured several drag queens and one drag king performing individual and group numbers in front of about 400 people. The Prom took place at 7:30 p.m. at Liberty Hall, and about 300 people attended.
Tina Bergen, Wichita junior, said she enloed the draa show.
"I think it's real fun to watch," she said. "It's different and you don't get to see anything like this usually. It's grabbing everyone's attention." One of the performers, "Ariel Matthews," said the drag show was a good event to have at the University.
"It broadens people's minds," she said. "It's a growth experience and a culture shock for some."
Corrina Beck, coordinator of Pride Week and Kansas City, Mo., junior, said that both events had gone well.
"We had such a great turnout at the drag show and I think people had a really good time at the prom," she said. "With the prom being off campus, people felt it was more formal, I think, and Liberty Hall was beautiful."
The march and rally begin Saturday at 1:30 p.m. at City Hall, 6 E
Sixth St. Participants marched down Massachusetts Street and gathered at the South Park gazebo. Speakers, such as Bonnie Cuevas, president of the Lawrence and Topeka Parents,
Beck said that the week went well, and that it was comparable to last year's success.

AEPi member comes out to fraternity, receives support from greek community
By Sara Anderson sanderson@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
Danny Cohn stereotypes himself as a fraternity guy who likes to go out and spend time with his friends. He likes to play sports and to watch baseball. Cohn thinks of himself as one of the guys with one difference, he's gav.
Cohn, Omaha., Neb., junior and a member of the Alpha Epsilon Pi fraternity, came out to his fraternity several weeks ago. Surrounded by support, Cohn said it was a good decision.
"They have been great," he said. "I'm so proud of them because nothing has been any different than it has ever been. I'm still the same person as I was before, it's just that now they know who I really am."
Cohn told the members that he was gay at a weekly chapter meeting. He said he discussed it with president Rob Litt before telling the rest of the chapter.
"There was not one bad reaction, and I actually got applause when I told them," he said. "It was wonderful, because it showed that they respected me."
Litt, Maple Grove, Minn., sophomore, said that he was in favor of Cohn's decision to tell the chapter and had no worries about reactions from the group.
"I was happy he decided to do it, because it gave us the opportunity to give him the support that he deserves," Litt said. "It's a huge point in his life, and we wanted to be there for him."
come out was not any different than telling his family.
"AEP1 is my home away from home," he said. "I felt comfortable enough with my surroundings and had a good support group that cared. They were all my brothers, so if I could share it with my family then I could share it with them. There was no reason not to."
Litt said that Cohn's openness had given members the chance to overcome their fears and to dispel rumors.
Cohn said the decision to
"He has been very open to answering questions," he said.
Cory Littlepage, Interfraternity Council president and Tulsa, Okla., junior, said that he hoped Cohn's positive experience would help open communication.
"I think it is wonderful that both AEPi and the Greek community have shown so much support," he said. "For someone to come out is great, because it will help to us to gain more understanding of the lesbigaytrans community and for them to gain more understanding of Greek organizations."
"I have never been an activist, and I don't plan to be," he said. "My goal wasn't to say, 'Look world, here I am.' I would hope that others in the same situation would feel as comfortable enough to tell their house and that their brother would just say, 'Who cares,' like mine did."
Cohn said that he hoped his openness would help others, but that had not entered his mind when making his own decision.
Emily Rowe, Scottsdale, Ariz.,
sophomore and friend of Cohn, said she had had apprehensions about his decision to tell his fraternity brothers.
"I was worried about him and doubted in the beginning if it was a smart decision," she said. "But I was so impressed with the reaction of that house. They have all been so supportive of him."
Rowe said she didn't think most fraternities had the type of atmosphere that allowed for openness about differing sexuality but hoped that Cohn's experience would help pave the way for others.
"I don't think fraternities frown on homosexuality, but I think they fear it," she said. "I don't think that the stage is there for you to come out in a fraternity, but maybe AEPI's reaction will set a precedent that it can happen."
Litt said he only had heard positive reactions from the greek community and hoped it would break down some of the stereotypes.
"I think it will give an opportunity for people outside the greek community to see that we're not all the stereotypes that people make us out to be," he said. "We're supportive and always will be, and I hope that other houses would be too."
Cohn said that his life was no different that anyone else's, and he was happy with the life he was leading.
"The only thing I want out of life is a good job, three kids, my health and someone to settle down with," he said. "And right now, I wouldn't want to be anyplace else besides where I'm at."

Skateboards, rollerblades are unsafe on campus
Skateboarding and rollerblading aren't just alternative forms of transportation. There is a crucial difference between them and bicycles and cars. There is no safe designated pathway for skateboards and rollerblades on campus.
I don't blame skateboarders and rollerbladers for not wanting to cruise down Jayhawk Boulevard. It's dangerous enough for bicyclists, who at least are operating a machine that's more resistant to bumps and holes and better able to keep up with the speed of traffic. On the other hand, the other paved surface on campus is called a sidewalk. This implies that a walking speed is the appropriate speed. It is dangerous for pedestrians to have people who are moving at three or four times their speed weaving in and out between walkers. If a walker stops, or drifts to the side, or in any way fails to maintain an even, forward momentum, there may not be time to avoid a collision. It's particularly frightening to be closely brushed by a wheeled person as they overtake you from behind, before you have any chance to know they're there.
The question is not whether skateboards and rollerblades are legitimate forms of transportation. We don't land helicopters or airplanes on campus, but no one would say that this is because the University doesn't consider them legitimate forms of transportation. The real question is whether there is room on campus to add skateboards and rollerblades into the complex transportation mix, without threatening the safety of all. Before rollerblading and skateboarding are approved, the safety issues need to be resolved.

Race equality upheld with affirmative action
I have been disturbed by some of the letters to the editor in opposition to affirmative action. In response, I offer this argument in support of affirmative action policies.
The issue, I believe, comes down to whether one believes America is a racist society. And the point is not just whether America has a history of racism. This focus on history allows the opposition to argue, as Erik Roesh did in his April 9 letter, "When (affirmative action) was first introduced, there was a need for it, but not now." Roesh apparently thinks that America miraculously has forsaken its racism in a mere 30 years — a position with which I certainly cannot agree. As long as racism exists in America, there is a moral imperative for affirmative action.
Affirmative action is not about preferential treatment or quotas. Affirmative action is not about hiring someone based on skin color, as Andrew Marino argued in his April 9 column. He said that minorities "must wonder if they got the job or received admission to the school because of the color of their skin or their talent and hard work." Affirmative action is exactly about talent and hard work. Affirmative action is about debunking the myth of meritocracy in a classist, classist, sexist society bent on preserving its monolithic hold on privilege and history.
Affirmative action does not fracture society. Americans are not one people, but many different peoples. Affirmative action embraces our cultural diversity so that everyone may contribute to the shaping of a just American society.
Furthermore, the notion of color-blindness is itself a racist construct. Why should we be blind to race? Our races, ethnic identities and heritages reflect part of who we are as people, as members of cultural groups. A person's race should not only matter, but be valued. Affirmative action is about abandoning white privilege and opening our ears to the worthy contributions of someone with a different point of view.
What are the opponents of affirmative action so afraid off I believe that your strong opposition reveals your fear of losing your privilege — which is precisely why we do need affirmative action.

Same-sex marriages should be legalized
Thank you so much for the editorial and sentiment in the April 23 issue of The University Daily Kansan on same-sex marriage, written by Emily Hughey for the editorial board. Every day I am reminded in some way or another that my partnership is not valued as equally (socially, politically, and economically) as other-sex partnerships, simply because my partner and I are both female. The editorial was very affirming to me as a human being, and I want to thank you for expressing support for same-sex marriages.
In a recent Kansan article, staff writer Marcelo Vilela wrote an excellent report on the domestic partnership proposal which was written by the Domestic Partnership Task Force of Gay and Lesbian Academic and Staff Advocates This proposal recently was submitted to the KU administration, and seeks to make available to unmarried students, faculty and staff (and their same- or other-sex partners) who wish to register as domestic partners the same benefits and access to University centers which are routinely extended to married students, faculty and staff members. Because the University's non-discrimination policy forbids discrimination based on sex, sexual orientation and marital status, it should implement a domestic partnership policy. A domestic partnership policy would not conflict with state law, but would put into practice the University's policy of non-discrimination that it already has in place.
Mike Silverman and I currently are organizing a conference which will be held at the University the first weekend in November and will discuss in detail how University policies and local, state and federal legislation affect lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgendered people in colleges and universities in the Kansas and across the Midwest. More information about the conference may be found at our conference homepage at http://www.turnleft.com/conference.
Thank you again and happy Pride Week!

Perspective
Endorsing Nike means more than free shoes
last semester the University of Kansas Athletic Department signed a multimillion dollar endorsement deal with Nike, Inc., which will last through the 2001-
Kyle Browning
C
02 school year. The contract, among other things, gives the KU Athletic Department large amounts of money and Nike apparel in return for the University endorsing Nike, primarily by putting Nike's trademark swoosh on all athletic uniforms. But by doing business with Nike, what is the University really representing and endorsing?
During the last few
opinion@kansan.com
years, many independent organizations and media groups such as The New York Times, Business Week, Newsweek and Life Magazine, among others, have accused Nike of unfair and many times illegal labor practices and grave human rights abuses in its factories. Nike shoe factories are mostly in Asia, and 70 to 80 percent of its shoes are produced in Vietnam, Indonesia and China because of the cheap labor and lack of strong governmental regulations. But abuses much worse than the low wages the company's workers are paid have been reported. Some of these abuses include child labor, forced and unpaid overtime work, environmental abuses, lack of safety regulations, which results in grave health risks to the workers, and discouraging workers to unionize by punishing workers who unionize or demand better conditions.
On April 2, ESPN's Outside the Lines ran an hour-long program about Nike and Reebok sweatshop abuses in Vietnam. This program offered powerful documentation that Nike has many problems in its factories. The entire workforce, including managers, were alerted the day before that ESPN would be filming in the factory. Even in the presence of ESPN crews, managers twice physically abused workers. Just before the end of the day's shift, a female Vietnamese supervisor was observed slapping an employee sharply across the forearm for not spreading glue slowly enough. When asked about the incident, the supervisor, Tran My Linh said, "I was just reminding her that, you know, she did something wrong, that's all... That's just the way we Vietnamese do it."
In the stitching department, a supervisor was seen angrily throwing a stitched upper portion of a sneaker at a worker. The special also showed many of the health risks that the workers faced from breathing the toxic mix of chemicals used to make the shoes, with only a useless cotton mask for protection. Reebok also was criticized during the show for many of the same abuses as Nike, but it is important to remember that Nike is by far the leader in reported abuses. Nike is also the shoe industry leader in terms of sales, so it only makes sense to target Nike first in the fight to end these abuses. At the same time these horrible working conditions exist in Nike factories, Nike continues to pay its endorsers, like Michael Jordan, Tiger Woods, and our own Roy Williams to wear the swoosh. Nike also spent about $800 million in advertising last year. Couldn't some of this money go to the workers on the assembly line?
Pressure on Nike to improve its business practices and working conditions has been increasing for many years, and Nike has responded, albeit weakly. Nike officials reportedly have made their Code of Conduct available to all their workers and have hired independent monitors to inspect and report on the conditions in their factories. Even though these monitors were not independent because Nike was paying them, they still reported that Nike could improve its working conditions. Most of the reports were criticized for their lack of research and/or scrutiny, and their use of interpreters supplied by Nike. So, the various Nike-sponsored monitors and reports, which were supposed to clear Nike of these charges, have only produced more evidence to prove the charges of human rights violations in Nike shoe factories.
I must point out that the goal of the various anti-Nike campaigns is not to get Nike out of these third-world countries and back to America where the labor conditions may be better. Nike does provide needed jobs and money to these people and countries, especially since the Indonesian economy has virtually fallen apart in recent months. But Nike needs to improve the conditions in its factories. Because Nike is the self-proclaimed leader in the sports apparel industry, it should act like one by improving its business practices above and beyond the competition, who also are not spotless in terms of their human rights records.
In an effort to put more pressure on Nike, April 18 was declared the day for the second International Nike Mobilization. On and around this day various actions took place in more than 35 states and 10 Canadian cities. Many organizations endorsed this day and its purpose, including the Campaign for Labor Rights and the East Timor Action Network. I urge you to write to Nike and express your concern about the abuses and try to raise awareness about this important issue, which involves a lot more than Nike shoes.

Earth Day continues with non-motor week
Earth Day is finished. April 22 was a day of reflection and celebration. Many of us at the University of Kansas may soon be tempted to resume our old
habits of thoughtless consumption. You may have heard the phrase "Make every day Earth Day." KU Environs encourages every member of the University community to follow this wise advice. One way to carry on the principles of Earth Day is to participate in Motor-Free Lawrence week.

KU Environs calls upon students, staff and faculty to leave their automobiles at home this week.
Instead of driving to campus, try walking or riding a bicycle. If you are tired of looking for a place to park your car, or if you have had your full share of parking tickets, here is your chance to leave the hassles behind. If you fear the imminent collapse of your automobile, a week of rest will delay its inevitable demise. If you live on campus but have gotten into the habit of riding the bus to class, here is a chance to use your legs to ascend the hill.
A week of walking and cycling may prove to be easier, cheaper and even faster than using a motor-driven vehicle. Seven days of freedom from the internal-combustion engine will certainly prove healthier for you and for others. Air pollution threatens the health of 182 million Americans. In fact, one study concluded that 25,000 Americans die each year from the pollution produced by automobiles alone.
suburban sprawl — a direct result of the proliferation of cars in our culture — threatens prairies, woods, wetlands, and farms throughout the Kansas River Valley. Although few people think much about it while they are sitting in the driver's seat, the process of extracting and refining it for gasoline imperils many of our precious ecosystems. Moreover, most scientists now
agree that the burning of fossil fuels increases the levels of carbon dioxide in our atmosphere, leading to a slow but steady rise in global temperatures. The resulting floods, droughts and heat waves may become a way of life for our grandchildren. If these facts fail to convince you, keep in mind that our dependence on foreign oil grows every year. We now import about 40 percent. Another oil embargo like the one in 1973 potentially could cripple our country. Let us not forget that the American love affair with the automobile has local, national, and global repercussions for present and future generations.
Fresh air and physical exertion lead to a clearer, sharper mind, a truly valuable possession at the end of the semester. Lastly, when more of us at the University decide to use our legs to get around, the administration and the city of Lawrence will be compelled to make our community a better place for pedestrians and cyclists.
On a more positive note, staying out of your car allows you to enjoy the beauties of nature, appreciate the blossoming of spring, and give yourself more time to reflect on the important things in life. The exercise gained by walking or pedaling will move you one step closer to that sleek body that seems so important with the arrival of summer.
Other schools possess excellent systems of alternative transportation. The University can too, but we must take strides in the right direction.
Hats off to those students, faculty, and staff who already cycle or walk to school and work. Some, because of age or disability, must drive to get around. Others live outside of Lawrence, so it remains impractical to do anything but use a car. Nevertheless, you can still invite friends, co-workers and fellow students to take a week off from their automobiles. The rest of us, however, have a chance to extend Earth Day into this week by leaving our cars at home.

Bernstein discovers the missing truth

The man whose reporting helped uncover Watergate secrets is trying to open people's eyes to the faults of the press.
Journalist and author Carl Bernstein shared his views on modern journalism with about 150 people who attended his informal presentation Saturday night at room 120 in Budge Hall.
The lecture was sponsored by Student Union Activities and the William Allen White School of Journalism. SUA spent $8,600 to bring Bernstein to campus.
Bernstein became famous as a reporter along with Bob Woodward when they wrote a series of investigative stories for The Washington Post on President Richard Nixon's administration. Their investigation led to the Watergate scandal in 1974.
Bernstein was played by Dustin Hoffman in All The President's Men, a movie depicting his reporting efforts in the Watergate era. He also unraveled mysterious connections between the Pope and President Ronald Reagan. Recently, he became an analyst for CBS news.
"We teach our readers and viewers that the trivial is significant, that the lurid and the loopy are more important
than real news," Bernstein said. "We don't serve our readers and viewers, instead we give them what we think they want."
Bernstein spoke for one hour about media scandals, sensationalist TV shows and the press' apathy and arrogance.
"One of the things that's always bothered me the most about the press is our pretension of omniscience." Bernstein said. "It's time for the press to begin finding some humility, recognizing its immense power and the responsibilities that go with it."
He defined good journalism as the best obtainable version of the truth.
Bernstein said the picture of society
that was rendered in the media was illusionary and disconnected from the true context of people's lives.
"We're losing sight of the ideal journalism that has to do with the truth, or reality, or content," he said.
Bernstein attacked celebrity worship, gossip, sensationally and manufactured controversies as the main triumphs of what he calls "idiot culture."
He said that even with all its faults, the American press was still the best in the world, but that it was losing its quality standards fast. The intense coverage of cases such as the Monica Lewinsky situation and the O.J. Simpson trial, consumes decent journalism and trashes the media in general, Bernstein said.
"We're arrogant, we're not forthcoming in acknowledging error and misjudgements, we fail to open our own institutions to the same kind of scrutiny that we demand of other powerful institutions." Bernstein said.
Bernstein said that he didn't consider himself a muckraker, because his criticism of the media didn't follow a social agenda.
Preston Rensone, Lawrence resident, said he admired Bornstein because he was still famous 25 years after Watergate.
"I would like him to have talked more," Rensone said. "He just got warmed up."
Quality of GTAs draws mixed responses
By Gerry Doyle
gaoyle@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
A report grading the quality of undergraduate education said several aspects of teaching may be lacking in the nation's universities.
But at the University of Kansas many of the problems cited in the report — such as too many GTAs or GTAs with little teaching experience — might not be a problem, said associate provost Kathleen McCluskey-Fawcett.
needed for a good education.
The report, called "Reinventing Undergraduate Education: A Blueprint for America's Research Universities," was produced by the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching. The report said undergraduate students were not receiving the attention they
"Baccalaureate students are the second-class citizens who are allowed to pay taxes but are barred from voting, the guests at the banquet who pay their share of the tab but are given leftovers," the report said.
One of the major problems cited in the report was that many courses were taught by graduate teaching assistants, not professors.
At the University, GTAs do not hinder the quality of education, McCluskey-Fawcett said. In many cases, GTAs actually could help students, because they are closer to students' age level, she said.
If nothing else, the sheer number of underclassmen necessitates the use of GTAs, she said.
"Frankly, I think it's part of the educational experience," she said.
"We get many fewer complaints than we used to. If you have 3000 freshmen, and there are 22 per class — you do the math. You can see how many sections are needed."
McCluskey-Fawcett also said that many students actually preferred GTAs to full-time professors.
"We do a senior survey about what they've liked," she said. "A lot of the people listed are GTAs. They provide smaller classes, more attention and are closer in age."
Raven Naramore, Lawrence junior, said that too many classes were taught by GTAs. Naramore said that some GTA-taught classes were satisfactory but that others suffered.
"The level of understanding that a professor has is far beyond a GTA," she said. "The GTA is fumbling around a little bit. It's hard to learn under someone who is learning
themselves. But it depends on the GTA. I've had some that are incredible and some that are pathetic."
James Woelfel, director of the humanities and western civilization program, said that while his department utilized many GTAs, they were experienced and competent. Woelfel said that although a GTA might look inferior in terms of education, that did not make them less effective teachers.
Woolfel said he did not see any problems with GTAs teaching classes.
"Often, there are not the resources to have full faculty members teach as many sections as need to be taught," he said. "I look upon the GTAs as junior colleagues. I came to KU years ago without ever having taught. A new Ph.D. might not have as much teaching experience as a GTA."

Concentration is easier after difficult diagnosis
STUDENT
SENATE
Continued from page 1A
After recognizing herself in the magazine article, Mai made an appointment with Myra Strother, a physician at Watkins Memorial Health Center.
Mai's diagnosis involved answering questions regarding her study habits. Do you have problems paying attention in class? Do you have problems reading textbooks? Do you lose things?"
Yes, yes, and yes; she answered.
Mai also had to take a general psychological test and an ADD test which included questions such as:
Do you fidget a lot? Do you have problems following a conversation?
Do you lump from topic to topic?
Mai immediately recognized herself in these questions.
"I can't sit and read a textbook at all. It's like torture for me," she said. "I wouldn't pay attention in class. I would be working on my day planner or fiddling with my nails, or looking at my split ends, or talking to somebody, bugging somebody else. So it also affected my friends, who I usually sit by in class, because I just couldn't pay attention."
The diagnostic process called for a friend to fill out a survey and evaluate Mali. Andrea Sigas, liberal junior, was the friend.
"Her attention span was zilch." Sigars said. "We had a class together freshman and she'd talk and talk. She has a hard time sitting still. When we're out somewhere and when Jen wants to go, it's time to go."
The girls met on the ninth floor of Oliver Hall their freshman year. That year they also had a class together. Sigars remembers Mai talking throughout that class. She also immediately recognized personality traits of Mai's while answering the questions.
ARE YOU FAMILIAR WITH ADD?
Mai's parents, Don and Althea, were also asked to fill out a questionnaire and evaluate her personality.
Althea Mai, who is also a teacher at Hoisington elementary school, remembers Mai as a spirited child but did not realize she might have ADD.
1. Impulsiveness
2. Quick temper
3. Forgetfulness and unreliability
4. Restlessness and inattentiveness in routine activities
5. Disruptive, intrusive behavior
6. Poor insight capacity
7. Uncooperative, determined to do things your own way
8. Rarely able to read or complete materials
9. Extremely impatient
10. Tendency to put blame onto others
11. Failure to follow through promises
12. Unpredictable, rapid mood swings
1. Impulsiveness
Source: the office of Corydon G: Clark, physician
"I never even suspected that Jenny had it," she said. "She was always hyper, but she has a quiet brother, and we just thought she was a contrast to him. She was hyper and full of life. She had a lot of spunk."
As she talks of her hyperactivity as a child, Mai's leg continually shakes, and the pen in her hand does not pause between shifts from the right hand to the left. She lifts the cap and replaces it. Mai admits she might have been hyperactive as a child but, because she had wide open spaces to run around at her family's farm, it wasn't a problem.
In women, researchers have found that ADD often looks more like a mood disorder. Women with ADD are well behaved as children but get more and more forgetful and disorganized as they get older. Mai admits she is getting somewhat forgetful with names lately.
"She was very active and always jabbery, her mother said." Her report card always said that she talked. She did well in her subjects, but she was just an active little girl with a lot of friends."
The mood swings that accompany the disorder can be one of the most difficult things for the sufferer and their family and friends to deal with.
"I would just be grumpy," she said. "My friends wouldn't always want to be around me. That wasn't always fun. I would have no idea that I was doing it until someone would say 'Why are you so moody today?"
Coping with ADD
After a diagnosis, learning to cope with the disorder is often as easy as getting a prescription for medication. Holmes has found that the best way to treat it is biochemically.
"From my perspective there is only one approach to it, and that's medication," he said. "The data on that are quite clear. Medication is extraordinarily effective."
"I don't get lost in class anymore," she said. "I can take really descriptive notes instead of like one line. I'll have things that the professor said. I can write and list them at they're saying and be able to finish the whole thing instead of one word and then a question mark because I wasn't able to remember the rest of it."
Since Mai's diagnosis, she has been on Ritalin and has made fast improvements in her studying.
Her friends have noticed the difference in Mai as well.
"She sits down and reads," Sigars said. "She answers questions in class that she never would have before because she actually knows the answers."
Although ADD is a disorder that should be recognized as a serious problem, Mai says she does not think students with the disorder should be given special attention or extensions on assignments.
"To me it's just something that I have to overcome." Mai said. "It's not something people should be like, 'Oh that's okay, we'll give you extra time to take a test.' But I don't take advantage of it like that either."
Medication brings lives into focus
By Erin Thompson
Kansan staff writer
If you have problems sitting through class, if you always have irrelevant thoughts dancing through your mind, it could be more than the call of beautiful spring weather.
You could be one of more than one hundred students at the University of Kansas who suffers from attention deficit disorder.
There is help available through medication, dispensed at Watkins Memorial Health Center. The most common medication prescribed to students is Ritalin, Kathy Thrasher, chief pharmacist at Watkins Pharmacy said.
Students can be diagnosed at Watkins and receive a prescription there or through their family practitioner.
"If 3,200 [prescriptions] come in during one month, about 10 of those will be for ADD," Thrasher said. "That's a rough estimate. About 3 or 4 percent of the students we see are for ADD."
If medication is not enough to help a student through class, or they would like their professors to be aware of their condition additional help is available through the Carryout for students with Disabilities.
The director of the department, Lorna Zimmer said that ADD was different in each case, but the department would do what was appropriate to help in each individual case.
Zimmer said that ADD was a disability in some cases. If there were limitations the department would make accommodations appropriate for the individual case, but not all cases were the same.
Help depends on whether there is a substantial limit to the person's opportunity to get the most out of the University caused by the disability, Zimmer said.
The number of attention deficit students receiving aid through the Services for Students with Disabilities was 110 last October. They were probably only a percentage of students with the disorder. Not all students file with the department, Zimmer said.

Planet Party celebrates the Earth
Community turns out for Earth Day activities
By Graham K. Johnson gjohnson@kansan.com Kansan staff writer
University of Kansas students and Lawrence residents drummed, danced, biked and even painted their faces to celebrate the Earth during the weekend.
The Planet Party took place from noon to 6 p.m.
Saturday at Lawrence's South Park.
The community-wide Planet Party and the Earth Day Bike Ride took place Saturday and Sunday afternoons. The two events were part of a month of Earth Day 98 activities organized by University of Kansas student groups.
Earth Day celebrators participated in a variety of activities, including watching belly dancers, joining a drum circle and learning about paper making. Information tables were set up to demonstrate the importance of conservation.
At the Wildcare information table, Laura Rumberg, a Wildcare volunteer, held a red-tailed hawk and answered questions about wild animals.
"One of the main goals of Wildcare is public education and increased appreciation of wildlife," Rumberg said.
Victoria Silva, director of the University's Office of Resource Conservation and Recycling, said the most popular attraction of the day was the face-painting station.

Andrea Repinsky, Olathe junior and one of the Planet Party organizers, said she had expected the attendance. She said that about 25 people came and left throughout the day.
The Earth Day Bike Ride from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
on Sunday also attracted a crowd.
About 50 people rode their bikes 16 miles from Broken Arrow Park at 31st and Louisiana streets to Douglas County State Fishing Lake near Baldwin. Local restaurants provided bikers with sandwiches, fruit, cookies and other items.
"I personally like riding bikes, and this was a good opportunity to do it," Morrissey said. "The fact that it was the Earth Day Bike Ride just made it a better reason."
Kathleen Morrissey, Omaha, Neb. junior, said that although environmental awareness was important, it was a secondary reason for why she participated in the ride.
The bike ride was sponsored by the University of Kansas Environment Studies Student Association.
Todd Simmons, Augusta junior and event organizer, said he was pleased with the weather and the number of individuals who participated in the bike ride, which is in its first year.
He said he thought the bike ride would be a good way to raise money. Proceeds from the $15 entry fee will go toward a scholarship fund for environmental studies majors, he said.
Nicole Seltzer, a recent graduate of the University and co-founder of E.S.S.A. , said that in addition to providing money for scholarship funds, the event also was a good way to promote environmentally friendly modes of transportation.
"You can ride 32 miles, and it's not so difficult." Seltzer said, "Maybe people will start taking their bikes to the store instead of taking their car on small trips."
Students fast to promote freedom in Tibet
By Ronnie Wachter
Twachter @ Kansan.
Kansan staff writer
About 10 University of Kansas students took part in a nationwide fast Saturday to raise awareness about the Chinese occupation of Tibet.
Members of the University of Kansas chapter of Students For a Free Tibet talked to passers-by and gave out informational pamphlets in front of Mercantile Bank, 900 Massachusetts St.
Erik Goodman, Dayton, Ohio, sophomore and president of the group, said that the event was held Saturday to honor the birthday of Gebbun Chokeyi Nyima, a young leader of Tibetan Buddhism. Nyima, who turned 9 on Satur-
day, is a political prisoner of the Chinese government, Goodman said.
"Because he's a high figure in Tibetan Buddhism, he's seen as a threat to Chinese rule in Tibet," Goodman said.
He said that he and the other Students For A Free Tibet felt that Nyima's imprisonment in Beijing, which began in 1995, was unjust.
"We're going to fast and sit here all day," Goodman said Saturday. "There are Tibetans that are on an indefinite hunger strike, though."
He said that more than 350 chapters of Students For a Free Tibet, headquartered in New York City, were participating in the fast. The University's group was founded in September.
Jason Hoeff, St. Louis sophomore
and member of Students For a Free Tibet, said that he was fasting out of concern for the Tibetan people.
"I'm a Chinese major, so I'm real involved with a lot of Asian activities," he said. "The things going on in Tibet are wrong, and I just think if people keep hearing about it, we can do something about it."
Hoeft said that he and Scott Brazell, St. Louis freshman, designed the information pamphlet that the students were passing out.
"One out of every 1.2 Tibetans, 1.2 million, have been killed by torture, starvation and execution," Hoeft and Brazell wrote. "Today the human rights of the Tibetan people continue to be pathetically overlooked."
Goodman said that he and other
members of the group were on KJHK's "Bring The Noise" talk show on Thursday to discuss China's occupation of Tibet. He said they would sponsor a forum Friday in the Kansas Union with three speakers.
Lama Tenzin, a Tibetan Buddhist monk; Gendeng Gyatso, a Tibetan refugee; and Felix Moos, professor of East Asian Studies, will speak about the imprisonment of Nyima and other troubles happening in Tibet.
The forum will be at 7 p.m. Friday at Alderson Auditorium in the Kansas Union, Goodman said.
"China has a very active policy of moving the culture of China into Tibet," Moos said. "It's getting to the point where a Tibetan town is looking like a Chinese town."

Fashion tricks can change a man into a drag queen

Kahlua bounces up and down on stage to a pop song blaring over the loud speakers at Ellsworth Hall. She stops briefly to fix her hair, which is bouncing in time with the beat. Then she smiles seductively at the judges.
Kahula spent hours preparing for this evening, deciding finally on a daringly short, black spandex t-shirt dress with royal blue stripes down the sides showing off her taller-than-six foot frame. At the end of the evening, Kahula, better known as Xavier Rice, Roeland Park freshman, was crowned queen of the Ellsworth Hall drag show.
More than just a fun time for participants, drag shows can be profitable as well.
Rice also has performed at Pearls, 1108 Grand St., in Kansas City, Mo. He said hoped to do occasional shows during the summer to earn money.
"You get about $40 for a fast number," Rice said. "You dance around the dance floor and people stuff tips in your bra."
He performed at the Queers and Allies drag show Friday in front of the Kansas Union.
The amount of time to prepare for a show is phenomenal. Makeup alone can take an hour, after hours rehearsing and choreographing a lip-synch number.
"First off, you have to pick the dress and that's really important depending on the type of number you do." Rice said. "For example, if I were going to do a Janet Jackson number, I'd have to wear something tight and short you could bounce around in. If I were going to do a slow number I'd wear a long, covering, slow movement kind of outfit."
Zig-a-zig-ah: The "Spice Force Five" group lip-syncs the "Spice Girl's hits to a screaming crowd (above). Both students and faculty gathered to watch the lunch-time show on Friday outside the Kansas Union.

"Making breasts is not very simple at all," Rice said. "If you put too much stuffing in one you have loppy breasts." Breasts can be formed by stuffing nylons with fiberfill stuffing. After creating the proper shape, they are stuffed into a bra.
Creating cleavage for lower cut dresses is also a sticky process.
"You push your nipples up as far as you can and squeeze you chest together," Rice explains. "Then you duct tape where your hands were. When you tape, you have the skin that looks like cleavage so it looks like you actually have breasts."
Sculpting a hourglass figure is not easy either.
After creating the figure, makeup is usually the next step.
"You suck in and wrap the stomach in saran wrap so you don't get tape on the skin," Rice said. He covers the plastic wrap in duct tape to form a tight corset. "That makes it tight and smooth. It hurts, but its all for the show. You sweat a whole bunch in there too."
"You have to hide the male features first." Rice explains. "You cover the face in foundation and cover the cheekbones. Then you create female features like larger lips and eyes. You have to move your cheekbones down. You use hard makeup lines so your cheeks look different."
Hair is perhaps the easiest preparation step if a wig is used.
"Your wig is so very important because it completely defines the character," Rice said. "You can have a big, furry wig that's just wild or a nice conservative wig or a bright, odd colored wig."
Laws must either be shaved or nylons can be lavered to create the same effect.
enioved bv Rice.
The final step of preparation is the least
Shoes can be tricky because larger sizes are hard to find and many heels are not thick enough to carry Rice's heavier frame
"Tucking!" he exclaims with disgust. "Usually you do it right before you go on. Tucking is taking the male genitalia and stuffing it between your legs so that it won't stick out and that you can't see it. It's as painful as it sounds. No one likes to do it."
Rice cites his "drag mommy" as one of the most crucial people in the process.
"A drag mommy is the person who shows you the correct way to do drag and points out all the things you're doing wrong," Rice said. "I wore flats (shoes) to the Ellsworth show and my drag mommy yelled at me for that."
["He] was seeing a drag queen and so we got him dressed up." Rice said. Rice
It was Rice's drag mommy who introduced him to the drag process.
decided it looked like fun and got dressed up as well. "They were like 'Wow! You should do this a lot.' They told me I couldn't be a drag queen without a drag mommy. It's like a close knit family type of thing."
Dressing in drag is not a frequent activity for Rice, a vocal performance major.
"I don't want to get too involved in it," Rice said. "I don't want to get stuck with it, especially with a career as a performer. I don't want them to be 'Oh, you have a drag queen role. Let's call Xavier."
In the meantime, drag provides a different option for fun.
"You really get the opportunity to completely show off and make an ass of yourself," Rice said. "But if you're really good, you don't make an ass out of yourself and people find it really neat. It's a lot of fun."

Frederick not talking about open post in Big 12
By Tommy Gallagher
tgallagher @kansan.com
Kansas sportswriter
Steve Hatchell has yet to resign as commissioner of the Big 12 Conference. But Bob Frederick, Kansas director of athletics, may be a leading candidate for the position.
Hatchell came under scrutiny by people whom he worked with in the Big 12 office in Dallas. Allegations
included workplace harassment and inappropriate comments toward women.
Frederick, who lost a 7-5 vote to Hatchell in March 1995 for the right to be the Big 12's first commissioner, told The Associated Press on Thursday
PETER A. PARKS
Frederick; may be a candidate for big 12 Commissioner.
that he did not want to speculate about the future.
Texas A&M president Ray Bowen, chairman of the Big 12 presidents told The Associated Press that Hatchell was not being forced to resign.
"I'm not going to comment on that at this time," Frederick said. "I don't know what the status of everything is. I'm concerned about the conference, but I would prefer not to answer a hypothetical question at this point."
Hatchell said he probably would resign after spring conference meetings next month, but added he did not know whether the resignation would come in May, June, July or even later.
"If it's being reported that he's being forced out, that's false," Bowen said. "He's a gentleman who has done a good job, and he's decided to look for other opportunities. He told us that. Whether he is leaving tomorrow or six months from now, I don't know."
Hatchell interviewed for the Salt Lake City Olympic Organizing Committee on April 17 and is considered a candidate for the sports director position. The committee said it hoped to fill the position by June.
Hatchell has about 20 months remaining on his five-year contract with the Big 12. Some sources report that he earns $250,000 annually, others $212,000.
Frederick, Missouri director of athletics Joe Castiglione and Oklahoma State associate director of athletics Dave Martin are considered leading candidates to replace Hatchell.
Frederick, who has been the athletics director since 1987, has led the Kansas program through some of its most successful seasons.
In 1992-93, Kansas became the second school in Division I history to win a football bowl game, advance to the men's basketball Final Four and reach baseball's College World Series in the same school year. Frederick hired each of those coaches: Glen Mason, Rov Williams and Dave Bingham.
And during 1993-94, Kansas placed 28th among 219 schools for the Sears Directors Cup, an award that recognizes the top athletics programs among NCAA schools.
Under Frederick, the Jayhawks have added two women's sports: crew and soccer. Kansas and Connecticut participated in the first men-women basketball doubleheader on network television in 1995.

Blue team wins annual spring game
By Kevin C. Wilson
Kansan sportswriter
nits he is a slow starter.
Mitch Bowles admits he is a slow starter.
"I usually don't start off that quick," the junior running back said. "It takes me a little time to get in the flow of the game and get a feel for it."
On Saturday it took just 16 seconds.
Bowles exploded for the unattached 75-yard touchdown run on the first play from scrimmage for the Blue team in the annual spring football game at Haskell Stadium.
The Blue team, composed of the Jayhawks' first-string offensive and defensive teams, piled up 292 yards of total offense and coated to a 38-0 victory against the White team.
The windy conditions hampered the aerial offenses of both teams, but rushing the ball was easy for the first team.
"The running game was just great. It surprised the heck out of me," Blue team quarterback Zac Wagner said. "It's tough to run, the ball on our defense."
Bowles finished with 147 yards and two touchdowns on four carries and sophomore running back David Winbush added 52 yards and two touchdowns as the firststring team amassed a total of 225 yards on the ground.
Coach Terry Allen said he had come to expect big plays from his running backs.
"Every practice that we have gone live this spring, one of them has broken a long run." Allen said, referring to Bowles, Winbush and senior Julius Bruce.
Winbush ran for 34 yards on the Blue team's second possession, setting up a 22-yard field goal for sophomore kicker Joe Garcia and extending the lead to 10-1.
After two failed possessions, strong safety Michael Allen intercepted a pass from quarterback Akili Roberson and returned it $3 yards to the seven-yard line.
Winbush burst into the end zone with 5:02 remaining in the first quarter, extending the lead to 17-0.
On the Blue team's next possession, Bowles slithered through a hole and ran for 66 yards. He finished the drive with a six-yard touchdown run and pushed the lead to 240 with 1:32 remaining in the first quarter.
With 8:03 remaining in the second quarter, cornerback Jamie Harris intercepted another Roberson pass and ran 75 yards for the touchdown.
Wegner completed 7 of 11 passes for 67 yards on the day, but he said that the blustery conditions made it difficult.
"It definitely wasn't the ideal conditions for throwing the ball, but it always feels good to get out there," Wegner said.

Terry Allen needs pogo stick to curb hitching tradition
Would somebody please buy Terry Allen a golf cart? Or a bicycle, or a skateboard, some rollerblades or even a pogo stick?
Something—anything —that will help him get around. Maybe he just needs a friend with a car. Or some spare change for a cab. Or even a horse and buggy.
It really doesn't matter what it is as long as it is some-
I really doesn't understand what thing, anything that can get Terry Allen from point A to point B after the spring football game.
Maybe he just needs a good pair of walking shoes.
On Saturday, Allen could not find a ride from Haskell Stadium, where his team played the annual game.
For the past two years, the Kansas football head coach has had difficulties finding a ride back from the spring football game.
His ride just didn't happen. So, playing hitchhiker, Alien flipped his thumb out to the only person he could find: Athletic Director Bob
Spencer Duncan
sports @ kansan.com
That's not a bad person to hitch a ride with, but what is going on?
If this were an isolated incident, then it could go down in the annals of Kansas football history as a small comical footnote, but sadly, this was a repeat performance.
This was the second time poor Coach Allen had to slum his way home from the spring game.
Last year, the then-new coach and his wife had to hitch a ride from Memorial Stadium on an equipment truck. It seems his wife had given the car to her folks and everyone else had left the guy behind.
Where is a good scooter when you need one?
Didn't anyone notice as they got off the buses afterwards at Parrot Athletic Center and hit the showers?
It's hard to believe the coach can't find a ride from his own spring game.
Didn't any of the coaches or players think to themselves, "Um, what's the Coach?" or "Does anyone notice someone missing?" or "Hmm, I think it was supposed to bring something back from the game with with me. What was it?"
Maybe it's time for Allen to buy a motorcycle, or get a Big Wheel, or find himself a nice chariot. Doesn't the athletic department give Allen a free bus pass?
Eisenhower had his limousine with pink interior, Cleopatra had her chair carried by muscular peons, Captain Kirk had the Enterprise and the Pope has the Popemobile.
Allen needs something. Maybe a moped, or a go-cart, or even a car shaped like a football.
But maybe that's too much to ask. Right now, Allen would probably just be happy with a ride.
So next April, if you are driving around and you see Terry Allen walking along with his thumb out, please pick him up.
Somebody has to.

Tournament ends with double loss
Men's, women's tennis teams lose Big 12 semifinals
By Erin Thompson
Kansan sportswriter
Despite the differences in their regular seasons, the Big 12 Tournament ended the same for the University of Kansas' men's and women's tennis teams.
Both teams lost in the semifinals of the tournament in Lincoln, Neb. Saturday.
Colorado upset the 15th-ranked women's team 5-3. The Jayhawks have dropped three of four matches after winning 11 in a row.
The Jayhawks won the top three singles matches without their top player, Kylie Hunt. Christie Sim. Christine Sues and
Kris Sell won the top three singles spots in straight sets.
But Kansas could not hold the lead and lost the bottom three singles points. At No. 4, Julia Sidorova was up five games to two before dropping five straight to lose the deciding set 7-5.
The match was tied at three wins apiece heading into doubles, but the Jayhawks did not win a doubles point for the first time since they lost to Brigham Young March 6.
The Jayhawks advanced to the semifinals after defeating K-State 5-3 Friday.
The match went on for five hours before the Jayhawks put the Wildcats away. Earlier this month Kansas easily defeated K-State 8-1.
"Kansas State threw everything they had at us." Kansas coach Roland Thornqvist said. "Everyone won when we had to. Our strength all year has been playing tough when we are challenged, and once again we were up to the task and came up victorious."
The duo defeated the Aggies team of
BIG 12 CONFERENCE XII
The women will play May 14-15 in the NCAA Central Regional tournament sponsored by BYU in Provo, Utah, where they likely will be the top seed.
The Jayhawks suffered the loss of their No. 1 singles player Hunt against K-State. Hunt down 4-1 in the third set, was forced to retire when she fell and sprained her ankle. This was only her second conference loss in her career.
After upsetting third-seeded Oklahoma State Friday, the men's tennis team could not carry the momentum into the match against Texas A&M Saturday.
The Jayhawks lost 4-0 to the 24thranked Aggies. The Jayhawks won the No.1 doubles spot, as Enrique Abaroa and Luis Uribe continued their impressive play.
Kansas could not pick up another win in the doubles and lost the doubles point. The losing continued, and the Jayhawks found themselves behind 3-0 after the Aggies won the No. 1 and No. 3 singles, only dropping five games.
The Jayhawks had an impressive win against Oklahoma State Friday. Abaroa and Uribe defeated Pavel Kudrnac and Martin Dvoracek, the second-ranked doubles team in the nation, by a score of 8-6.
Carlos Tori and Shuon Madden for the second time in a week. They now have defeated six top-30 opponents, including four teams currently in the top 10.

Riley was pleased with the team's performance.
"Coming up here, the guys didn't worry about our record," he said. "We knew it wasn't indicative of what we are capable of. We are starting to put it all together."
The Jayhawks likely will receive a bid to the NCAA Region V tournament May 15-17. Tournament pairings will not be set until May 5.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (April 27).
You're awesome this year. You won't know your own power, so be careful. You can get just about anything you ask for in May. Make a list. You'll be completing it all year long.
Aries: Todav is a 5.
You could go through a lot of money in a short time if you're not careful. You might do it even if you are careful. The latter is certainly the better option. If you're going to spend it, do it on something that will pay good returns on the investment.
Taurus: Today is a 9.
You generally keep a low profile, but it looks like you're stirred up about something. That's OK. You stand a good chance of winning the argument. Encouragement and support from friends also help. You simply outvote this other person. And you can do it without making an enemy.
Gemini: Todav is a 5.
You may be feeling kind of dense this morning, but don't worry. Your brain will clear by this afternoon. If you can manage to schedule appointments for Tuesday and Wednesday, even better.
Cancer: Today is an 8.
Meet with associates early this morning. It will be easy to make decisions, and take action. There will be a tendency to get bogged down in details, but not until this evening.
Leo: Today is a 6.
Don't argue with your boss or teacher. You won't stand a chance. Not only is that person stronger than you are, but he or she seems to have a chip on the old shoulder. There's so much to be done and this person feels responsible for all to it. Offer to help.
Have you been thinking about traveling far from home? If so, this would be an excellent time to make your down payment on the trip. It's also a good time to learn the language. It'll be easier than usual if you start now. Get a tutor from that country to help.
Virgo: Today is an 8.
Libra: Todav is a 5.
The work you have to do is complicated, and there are decisions to be made. You should be in a good frame of mind, however, and your intuition should be excellent. This evening looks good for travel. Take yourself out for a special treat.
Scorpio: Today is an 8.
Sagittarius: Todav is a 5.
Your sweetheart is in a very persuasive mood. This may be a little unusual. Generally, you're the person who's doing the persuading. It's not an altogether unpleasant situation, however. In fact, if you're not careful, it could make you late for work.
Capricorn: Today is an 8.
You have the strength and determination to plow through just about any barrier you run into. The one you're most likely to hit is a mechanical breakdown. Even that you can fix, although it'll take a while. You'd best not plow through that, or you'll be adding to the problem.
Aquarius: Today is a 5.
You want to make marvelous plans that can only be achieved through miracles. 'I'll be hard to shake you out of that mood for most of the day.' This evening, you'll return to a semblance of normalcy. It looks like you could actually get some work done after dinner.
This would be a fabulous day to stay home in bed. If you can't, at least get back there at your earliest opportunity. Meanwhile, think of ways to fix up your place even more. You'll want to entertain at home soon, maybe even tonight. It's about time you got it just the way you want it.
Pisces: Today is a 9.
9
You are willing to learn from a strong teacher, someone who is an expert at a skill you admire. If you're learning how to play the guitar, you'd want to sit at the feet of a virtuoso for hours. Devote as much time to that sort of endeavor as possible, even if you have to do your day job first.

Crash puts brakes on NASCAR's DieHard 500
TALLADEGA, Ala.
The red flag stopped racing for 27 minutes. When the race resumed, only 15 cars were left on the lead lap, two of those running with significant damage.
"I guess it's just regular speedway racing," said Jerry Nadeau, who was involved in the crash. "When something happens, something happens big."
Elliott and Dale Earnhardt took the worst of the crash at the start-finish line at Talladega Superspeedway, the fastest and arguably most dangerous track on the Winston Cup circuit.
As the drivers completed the 141st lap, Elliott got hit by Earnhardt, whose car was turned sideways by a rear-end collision from Ward Burton.

Earnhardt's car also suffered major damage, but both he and Elliott walked away from the crash. Elliott refused a stretcher, but appeared wobbly as he talked with Earnhardt while leaving the track.

"The fire came off Elliott's car and singed my hair," said Earnhardt, who had second-degree burns on his face. "My mustache got burned a little bit."
The accident began as Burton, Earnhardt and Elliott were racing for third position. Burton bumped Earnhardt, who slammed into the side of Elliott's car and the chain reaction began. Burton emerged relatively unscathed and stood in ninth place when racing resumed.
Earlier, two yellow flags had come out, but one was for debris on the track and the other was for fluid on the track.
Track officials said Elliott bruised his sternum. He left the speedway on his own and was flying home to Dawsonville, Ga., where he would be examined by his own physician.
"We all expected it," said Chad Little, who also got caught up in the crash. "It's Talladega. When it doesn't happen, that's unexpected."
Knicks don't need Ewing to extinguish the Heat
MIAMI — With a burst of emotion and a balanced attack that was missing in game one, the New York Knicks landed a counterpunch Sunday against the Miami Heat.
John Starks scored 25 points, Allan Houston had 24 and Larry Johnson 22 as the Knicks rallied from a 14-point deficit to beat the Heat 96-86 and even their best-of-5 series at 1.1.
even play in Game 1, grabbed 14 rebounds, including five on the offensive end, and point guards Charlie Ward (seven assists) and Chris Childs (a clinching late 3-pointer) combined to shut down Tim Hardaway. The duo held him to 15 points on 4-for-15 shooting to prevent a repeat of his 34-point performance in Game 1.
Game 3 will be Tuesday at Madison Square Garden, where the Heat's career record is 3-22.
The Knicks, outscored 33-3 from 3-point range in Game 1, this time went 7-for-15 to Miami's 5-for 19. New York rallied in the second period by hitting four consecutive 3-pointers—two each by Starks and Houston.

Miami's Alonzo Mourning, avoiding the foul trouble that plagued him in Game 1, had 30 points and 13 rebounds, and Voson Shonar scored 25 points, a career playoff high in the loss.
Childs even drew an imaginary knife across his throat after hitting a 3-pointer with 1.52 left for an eight-point lead.
It was another bruising but clean game between two of the NBA's most bitter rivals. The biggest difference was the passion shown by the aging Knicks, who pumped their fists, bumped their chests and jumped around like youngsters as they pulled away in the fourth quarter.
The playoff victory was New York's first since 1984 without Patrick Ewing, who again watched from the bench in street clothes.
New York, which came into the game with a seven-game road losing streak, took the lead for good on two free throws by Starks to make it 69-67 with two minutes left in the third period. Consecutive baskets by Houston and a three-point play by Starks made it 83-74 with 6:17 remaining.

Kansas baseball clinched last place in the Big 12 Conference after a three-game sweep by No. 12 Texas A&M this weekend at Hoglund-Maupin Stadium.
The Jayhawks (18-28) now stand at 5-19 in conference and have lost 13 of 15 games. They own an anemic 10-24 record
against DIVISION I opponents.

The Aggies (37-15) slaughtered Kansas pitching all
weekend, running up 12-1, 17-12 and 10-9 victories. Texas A&M pounded 15 home runs on the weekend, including seven on Saturday and six on Sunday.
Four Aggie hitters belted solo home runs in the first four innings yesterday off Kansas starting pitcher Rusty
Philbrick, who picked up the loss. Texas A&M second baseman Sean Heayne smashed a pair in the game, and first baseman John Scheschuk hit his third in as many games.
Catcher Shane Wedd and designated hitter Josh Dimmick led Kansas offensively. Wedd had a three-run home run, his first hit in April, and Dimmick had two hits and two runs batted in.
"I've been hitting the ball hard lately — I knew the streak would end soon," Wedd said. "The last couple of weeks have been rough, and tough losses have snowballed and effected all of us."
Seven different players homered for Texas A&M Saturday, while centerfielder Clint Wryick and Dimmick homered for Kansas. Wryick also drove in four runs on three hits, but starting pitcher Brian Schriner dug the Jayhawks a large hole on the mound, allowing seven

runs in two innings.
Another injury further crippled the Jayhawks' roster when Texas A&M relief pitcher Eric French knocked Kansas shortstop John Nelson in the nose with a fast ball. Nelson is expected to miss the rest of the season.
Texas A&M pitcher Ryan Rupe stifled Kansas on Friday, allowing just one run in a complete-game victory. Kansas pitcher Les Wardron walked six in just five innings, picking up the loss while allowing eight runs in five and one-third innings.

"You could think of excuses — key guys were hurt for much of the season — but we're looking for things to do differently that will win games for us," head coach Bobby Randall said. "There were many things I liked about this team coming into the season, and the way this season is ending is not a good feeling." The team is left to work for the future
"There was a period in the middle of the season I could feel it slipping away." Wedd said. "All we can do now is figure out how to win next year, and that's going to take everybody on this team believing and working hard so next season is better than this one."
Kansas plays a non-conference game at 7 p.m. tomorrow against Kansas State at Hoglund-Maupin Stadium. It will be the final quarter hot dog day of the season.

Hopes of title fade for Jayhawks
By Laura Bokenkroger Kanson sportswriter
On Senior Day for the Kansas softball team Saturday, the Jayhawks split a doubleheader with the Missouri Tigers, erasing their chance to move into the winners' bracket for the Big 12 Conference Tournament.
The eighth-seeded Jayhawks will face single elimination in the opening round of tournament play May 1.
A strong wind blowing toward the infield kept would be home runs from going over the fence. Kansas pitcher Jessi Kowal and Missouri pitcher Stephane Falk gave up only four hits each in Kansas' 1-0 victory.
"The wind had a big effect," coach Tracy Bunge said. "When the wind is blowing in on you, it adds more zip to the pitcher's fastballs. There would have been a couple of home runs without it, too."
11
The Jayhawks manufactured a run in the bottom of the sixth inning and took the lead 1-0.
Left fielder Sara Holland led off the inning with a grounder to center field. Coach Bunge called for a hit-and-run, and Holland reached third on a single by catcher Kristina Johnson. First baseman Shannon Stannaw picked up an RBI when Holland beat the throw to home, putting the Javahaws up 1-0.
The run was all the Jayhawks needed for the win, as Kowal improved her record to 1317.
Between games, the seniors were escorted by family members to chairs around home plate. Coach Bunge and their teammates said something about each of the sixth seniors, recognizing their contributions.
"It was really emotional," Johnson said. "It was a big surprise, because we didn't know that they were going to say something about us."
Missouri won the second game, picking up four runs on three hits in the third inning.

Pitcher Christy McPhail walked three consecutive batters, after giving up a hit to start the inning, putting the Tigers up 1-0. The Big 12 Tournament is May 1-3, but the
Jayhawks first will finish the regular season with a make-up doubleheader against Creighton at 3 and 5 p.m. tomorrow.

'Hawks are on the run as season nears its end
By Angela Johnson
Kansan sportswriter
Freshman All-American Scott Russell led the Jayhawks by winning the Javelin title Friday and Saturday at the Drake Relays in Des Moines, Iowa.
Russell's toss of 232 1/2 feet was 1/2 feet less than his personal best. Russell has qualified provisionally for nationals in the event.
Coach Gary Schwartz has said that Russell was recruited specifically as a javelin specialist, but the Windsor, Ontario, native first made an impact during the indoor season when he broke the school record for the 35-pound weight throw. He threw 67-6/14 at the NCAA Indoor Championships March 13 and 14 in Indianapolis, Ind.
Russell also competed in the hammer throw this weekend and placed 12th with a loss of 178-10.
Last weekend at the Mount Sac Relays in Los Angeles, Russell threw 194-7 in the hammer.
"Younger athletes like Scott are not as experienced and haven't achieved consistency at this level," Schwartz said.
Weather conditions also contribute to inconsistencies,
TRACK AND FIELD
Schwartz said.
"It had rained hard on Friday night," he said. "For Marla Woodman, the field was wet and the (disc) ring was slippery."
In women's distance, senior Lynn LoPresti set a personal record in the 10,000-meter run. She placed 11th with a time of 36 minutes, 42.95 seconds.
"It was a very good effort from Lynn," Schwartz said. "She has the ability to place at conference."
Junior Lester Smith set a personal record in the triple jump. He placed fourth with a mark of 51-1 1/2. Smith's performance was only 61/2 inches from a qualifying mark for nationals.
In the men's pole vault, sophmore Garrett Attig placed 10th with a jump of 16-10 1/4. Senior Marc Romito jumped 16-5 1/2 and placed 11th.
Freshman All-American Andrea Branson struggled in the women's pole vault. She cleared 10-4 — almost two feet less than her personal best — for 13th place.
At the University of Missouri-Kansas City Invitational on Saturday, the Jayhawks captured three individual titles and 20 top-five performances.
Senior David Cooksey, who had missed much of the last two seasons because of injuries, ran a personalbest 21.36 in the 200-meter dash and claimed the title.
Freshman Greg Steele won the men's polevault. He cleared 155.
On the women's side, senior Lisa Beran won the discus with a throw of 149-9.
Sophomore Ricardo Amezuca was the only Jayhawk who competed at the 104th Penn Relays in Philadelphia. He placed 13th in the 10,000-meter race with a time of 29:57.96.
Amezcua, a native of Acambaro,
Mexico, placed 14th in the 10,000 at last year's NCAA Outdoor Championships in Bloomington, Ind. Last weekend, Amezcua qualified provisionally for nationals in the 10,000-meter at the Mount Sac Relays.

Saberhagen bouncing back from shoulder injury
The Associated Press
CLEVELAND — Bret Saberhagen stands in the Boston Red Sox clubhouse with his foot on a couch, answering questions. He stays until every one is answered, until every opportunity for a joke or a wisecrack is taken.
What a pleasure it must be for the two timeAL Cy Young Award winner to talk about pitching again. He's spent the better part of three years
crying to bring his shoulder back to life.
He's done the same for his career.
"I wasn't afraid," said Saberhagen (4-0), who has won his first four starts to begin an inspiring comeback from career-threatening shoulder injuries. "I was ready to accept that if things didn't work out, I'd go on with the rest of my life."
show flashes of his old dominance. He has a i 96 ERA, a fastball in the low 90s and the pluck and fluidity that some feared he would never recapture.
"I was hoping I'd get back," Saberhagen said. "I didn't want to come back and be an average pitcher. I wanted to get back throwing the way I was before the surgery."
for Colorado and was healthy enough to make only six starts last season for the Red Sox.
Saberheng, who won the Cy Young Award in 1985 and '89, had his right shoulder reconstructed after the 1995 season. He didn't throw a pitch in 1996
If it was painful to watch Saberhagen hang around with nothing to do last year, just imagine how if felt to him.
"Pitch in, pitch out, I'm not thinking,
'Oh, I hope it doesn't blow out,'"
Saberheng said.
His shoulder still isn't completely back. It gets tired around 100 pitches, which used to be a mere warmup when he came up as a spindy, faintly
mustachioed rookie with the Kansas City Rovals in 1984.
There was so much workhorse in that skinny body back then.
"I wasn't able to go out and throw on the side, do my long toss and my weights," Saberhagen said, recalling those long, lonely days of rehabilitation. "It's just the opposite now. I'm able to bounce back."
For a clue as to why Saberhagen, 34, was willing to endure that work without reward on the mound, the
fifth inning of Boston's 3-2 victory over the Indians on Saturday is a perfect example.
With runners on first and second and two outs, Saberhagen rocked into that easy, textbook motion and whizzed a cut fastball over the inside corner to freeze and strike out Kenny Lofton. He used the same pitch to tie up Jim Thome, resulting in weak pop-ups in the second and fourth.
"I can only imagine what his stuff used to be." Thome said.

Partial-birth abortion ban becomes law
"Politics has not been a factor in my decisionmaking process, and I am disappointed in those who have chosen to discuss it in political terms... This
issue is too serious to be driven by politics."
TOM WEBB
Bill Graves Kansas governor
Kansas will allow abnormal fetuses to be terminated
By Brandon Coppe
bcopple@kanson.com
Kansan staff writer
Gov. Bill Graves signed into law yesterday a bill that considerably will tighten state law governing abortion.
In a press release issued after he signed the bill, Graves called the decision the most difficult one he has faced as governor.
"Politics has not been a factor in my decision-making process, and I am disappointed in those who have chosen to discuss it in political terms," Graves said in a message to the House of Representatives, where the bill originated. "This issue is too serious to be driven by politics."
Much of the speculation around the bill
focused on Graves' re-election campaign in the fall. David Miller, abortion opponent and chairman of the state Republican party, is contemplating challenging Graves in the primary.
a veto of the bill would have given Miller a starting point in the race from which he could attack Graves' stance on social issues.
The bill, which will go into effect later this year, outlaws partial-birth abortions performed by evacuating the tissue inside a fetus's skull. Since his election in 1994, Graves has supported a ban on those procedures.
The fetal abnormality provision contained in the bill was the most controversial provision. It prohibits abortions of severely deformed fetuses that could survive indefinitely outside the womb with artificial life support systems.
Sen. Sandy Praeger, R-Lawrence, an abortion-rights advocate, said she supported Graves' decision because the bill contained a provision that would allow abortions at any time to protect the life or health of the mother.
Physicians will be required to keep records of abortions they performed after the 22nd week of pregnancy. For an abortion performed on a viable fetus, a physician must report the exception that allowed the abortion — the mother's health or fetal abnormality
"He's done the right thing and the courageous thing," she said. "My friends in the prochoice community might be surprised to hear that, but it's important that we recognize that the bill doesn't put any restrictions on the first and second trimester, and it adds a protection for the health of the mother."
Praeger said she thought Graves' action would bring a prompt end to the legislative session.
Legislators return to work today. They will consider action on legislation vetoed by Graves and will finish work on omnibus appropriations — the bill that contains all state appropriations not provided for in other legislation.
Praeger said that the Legislature would not deal with abortion again this year and that she hoped the issue would be put to rest for awhile.
"Many people in the pro-life community have said this bill is enough," Praeger said. "I hope they're right about that."

Writer tells good,bad aspects of television
By Aaron Knopf
aknopf@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Barnhart, who earned a master's degree from the University of Chicago Divinity School, spoke yesterday at room 100 in Smith Hall in a lecture sponsored by the Department of Religious Studies. About 25 people attended the event, which was free.
Today's television comedies and dramas reflect the mix of jadeenth and idealism that exists in American society at the end of the 1990s, said Aaron Barnhart, *The Kansas City Star* TV writer.
Television has an undeniable power in society, but this power has a downside. Barnhart said.
"This insidious talent of television to appropriate our deepest feelings and use them to sell us something is perhaps the most troubling add-on of American civilization," he said.
Barnhart divided his lecture into a discussion of sitcoms and dramas.
"Situation comedies are extremely cynical," Barnhart said. "But the flip side is they are also excruciatingly sentimental."
Barnhart showed videos of several examples, including a clip from an episode of "King of the Hill," an animated comedy on Fox, to illustrate his point.
Sitcoms, such as "King of the Hill," often portray social messages with subtlety, he said.
In the show, Hank Hill and his wife smoke cigarettes for the first time in years and reminisce about an earlier age when they did not worry about the dangers of cigarettes.
Courtroom and police dramas, such as "Law and Order," reflect a fundamental change in society's belief about crime and punishment. Barnhart said.
"By their nature, dramas can be more overt about their religious, spiritual and moral messages," he said.
People who watched "Perry Mason" enjoyed seeing Mason bringing the guilty to justice and helping free the innocent, he said.
Barnhart said that "Nothing Sacred" drew its topics from ongoing debates among Catholics. He showed a clip in which a priest admits to his colleagues that he has AIDS.
Barnhart cited "Law and Order" and the recently canceled "Nothing Sacred" as examples of dramatic shows with such messages.
"Somewhere along the way, our sympathy changed," Barnhart said.
He said the defense attorney became a magnet for public resentment, too worried about the rights of the accused to care about the victim.
He said that people now watched shows where prosecutors and detectives forced guilty people to confess their crimes through tough methods.
Tomson-DeGreef said he was impressed by Barnhart's speech.
Michael Tomson-DeGreef, Lawrence junior, said he attended the lecture because of his fascination with the portrayal of religion on television.
"I realized how hard his job must be to find insightful things to say about television," he said.

Oliver residents take a stand for their courts
Residents fear new lot would serve only basketball fans
By Marc Sheforgen
msheforgen@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Plans to tear down basketball and handball courts at Oliver Hall in favor of more parking spaces have more than 400 Oliver residents and KU students upset enough to sign a petition.
Oliver residents may have no say in what happens to the existing courts, but their petitions are demanding that new ones be built, said Nathan Jared, Atlanta freshman and next year's Oliver Hall government president.
Two full-size basketball courts and three handball courts will be torn down to create close to 200 new parking spaces.
Jared said he, Oliver residents and other KU students used the basketball courts regularly and found it unfair to have them removed.
"From what we understand, there's pretty much nothing we can do about it," Jared said.
Don Kearns, director of parking, said that concerned students should rest easy. He said the parking department would work with the student housing department to plan for a new outdoor
recreation facility. But those plans will not go into effect until the existing parking lot is expanded, Kearns said.
Jared said that as he understood it, the new parking spaces would accommodate patrons of Allen Field House. He said that it was unfair to take away one of the best luxuries of Oliver so that more people could park for basketball games.
But Kearns denied this, saying that the new spaces would be available only for residents of Oliver.
"We don't want encroachment from other people to come in on their area," he said. "This is strictly for the students in Oliver."
Residents of Oliver and other students play basketball on the courts as late as one or two in the morning, weather permitting, Jared said.
"It's huge around here," he said. "When it's nice, you don't want to go all the way to Robinson to play. Every time we go over to Robinson, there's always lines."
Doug Riat, associate director of Design Construction Management, said that the plans for the re-configuration of parking lot 112 were under way and that construction would begin once the design was finalized.
"We would like to begin construction this summer," Riat said. "We would have less impact on the students if we could get that work done in the summer months."

A man was arrested at 7:46 p.m. Friday near Summerfield Hall for lewd and lascivious behavior, the University of Kansas Office of Public Safety said.
A 19-year-old female KU student left Robinson Center's west entrance about 7:30 p.m. and saw the man standing next to the building committing a lewd and lascivious act, said Sed. Gary Wieden.
He said that the student was able to give police a description of the man, which led to his arrest.
Another KU student was the victim of a lewd and incessious act Wednesday morning in Oliver Hall. The student came out of the shower and saw a man masturbating in the bathroom. Police still are investigating that case.

Miniature pincher stolen from Lawrence pet shop
A dog was stolen Saturday from Scales And Tails Exotic Pets, 2201 West 25th St. Lawrence police said.
The theft was the second dog-related crime at the store in five days.
Sgt. George Wheeler said the dog, a female, black and brown miniature pincher, was stolen between 1:30 and 2:10 p.m. by a customer who had been petting it. The dog was valued at $395.99. Wheeler said the suspect was described
Wheeler said the suspect was described only as a white female.
"The suspect had taken the dog out of its cage to pet it, and then the clerk that had been watching went to the back room," Wheeler said. "When the clerk returned, the suspect was gone and the
dog with her.'
A Lawrence man was arrested early Tuesday morning after attempting to steal a male, chocolate-colored miniature pincher. Wheeler said.
Roy Engeldorf, owner of Scales And Tails, said he did not think the crimes were connected. He said he was concerned about the safety of the dog.
"The dog is still missing, and I'd like to get it back," Engeldof said.

Middle school's classes resume after shooting
EDINBORO, Pa. — Students wore white ribbons, sang and walked arm-in-arm as classes resumed yesterday without a beloved science teacher and the teen-age misfit accused of gunning him down at an eighth-grade dance.
Classes were delayed for two hours at the James W. Parker Middle School as students held a prayer session to remember John Gillette, a teacher and businessman in this northwestern Pennsylvania town of 5,000.
Andrew Wurst, a 14-year-old boy nicknamed Satan by his friends, remained in jail on homicide charges.
Witnesses said the eighth grader pulled a gun Friday night and shot Gillette, 48, in the head, then walked inside a banquet hall and fired several more shots before leaving. He was arrested a short time later.
Two students and another teacher were slightly wounded.
Gillette was killed while volunteering at the graduation dance at Nick's Place, a banquet hall near Edinboro. He organized the annual舞 and was also the student council adviser. Police
do not believe Wurst was targeting Gillette, though his motive remains unclear.
Friends said that Wurst had talked about killing people at the dance but that they hadn't taken him seriously. They said Wurst claimed to be unhappy at home and at school and was happy only when a girl he liked talked to him.
Ben Mills, 13, said he had nicknamed Wurst Satan about five months ago because Wurst was a fan of rocker Marilyn Manson.
Black men more prone to die from lung cancer
WASHINGTON — Black men who smoke and get lung cancer are much more likely to die from the disease than white males who light up. But death rates are lower among other minorities.
A study about minority smoking habits, released today by Surgeon General David Satcher, looked at four ethnic groups that together make up a quarter of the nation's population. It concluded that African-American men bear one of the greatest health burdens.
According to the study. 81 percent of African-American men who smoke and who have contracted lung cancer die from the disease, compared to 54 percent of their White counterparts.
A quarter of Hispanic male smokers with lung cancer die from it, about the same as the death rate among Asian male smokers stricken with the disease. Thirty-two percent of American-Indian men who smoke die from lung cancer, the study shows.
Overall, the number of adult smokers has declined this decade, according to the study.
Another report released earlier this month by the Centers for Disease Control showed that smoking by black students — once hailed as a success story for their continually low cigarette use — has almost doubled.
Smoking among African-American teens has increased 80 percent during the last six years, three times as fast as among White students, the study showed.
WORLD
Guatemalan bishop found beaten to death at home
GUATEMALA CITY — On Friday, Bishop Juan Gerardi Conedera presented a scathing report about human rights violations during Guatemala's 36-year civil war. Late Sunday, the 75-year-old prelate was beaten to death with a concrete block.
It was the first killing of a high-ranking church member in Central America since peace accords ended civil wars that wracked the region throughout the 1980s.
Neither church officials nor prosecutors gave a motive for the crime, in which someone smashed Gerardi's head and left the body in a pool of blood in the garage of his residence at San Sebastian church. Nothing was stolen from the house.
If the killing was retaliation for the report, it shows that animosity from the civil war did not end with Guatemala's 1996 peace agreement. If it was a random attack, it is yet another manifestation of the crime wave caused by the war's legacy of plentiful weapons, powery and a culture full
warpings, poverty and a culture of violence. Mario Orantes, a parish priest at San Sebastian, said he discovered the body lying next to a bloodied concrete block about midnight. The face was so smashed in that he identified the bishop by his ring.
Gerardi, head of the Guatemala City archdiocese's human rights office, had issued a report Friday that blamed the army and its paramilitaries for nearly 80 percent of the killings during the war.

versity of Kansas Medical Center's Cancer Center. She died in October after battling a cancer that began in her breast and spread throughout her body.
"She was a colleague whom we admired," said Christine Selk, program coordinator
for Breast Cancer Action, Inc. "We want to honor her and celebrate her life."
Breast Cancer Action, Inc., a three-year old coalition that includes breast cancer survivors and health care professionals, is organizing the event.
The tea will be at 2 p.m. at the First United Methodist Church, 946 Vermont St. and is sponsored by Brits, The Bay Leaf and Fifi's.
Proceeds from the event will provide free mammograms and education for women who cannot afford health insurance, Selk said. The group hopes to make it an annual event, she said.
Laine Kaplowitz, Dallas junior, began working with the group after her mother's best friend died of breast cancer last summer.
Sister Ann Cecile, personal development specialist with the Sisters of Saint Joseph in Wichita, will speak about "The Healing Power of Laughter."
"We already have over 150 people attending the tea," Kaplowitz said. "I think it'll be a great fund raiser, and it'll help a lot of women in the Lawrence area."
Those who want to attend must send name, address and $12.50 per person to P.O. Box 585, Lawrence, KS,66443, by tomorrow. For more information, call Selk at 313-3130.

University fills comptroller job, reorganizes office with efficiency
By Gerry Doyle
gdoyle@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Two weeks after the resignation of comprotiler Mel Klinkner, the University of Kansas has filled the position.
Diane Goddard, former director of purchasing at the University, has filled the position. Goddard, who has been director of purchasing for two years, began her job Friday.
Associate provost Lindy Eakin said that the job was natural for Goddard since she has had experience with the comptroller's job. Goddard had acted as comptroller in the six months between the resignation of former comptroller Kathe Shinham last year and Klinkner's hiring.
Eakin said that Goddard's new job would be a total switch.
"I'd describe it as a reorganization," Eakin said. "Her role as assistant to the associate provost and purchasing director had a similar role. Now she's assistant to the associate provost and comptroller."
Goddard said that her assumption of the office largely was spurred by the suddenness of Klinkner's resignation. Because the office had been through two controllers in less than a year, the office needed someone to stein in, she said.
"When Mel left as suddenly as he did, the office was in yet another transition," she said. "We needed continuity and stability quickly. It was a way to provide some instant stability."
The decision was quick, she said, and would not hurt the University.
"This is not just a short-term fix," Goddard said. "Structurally, it
makes a lot of sense. We're going to provide universally better services. It was a decision that feels very right."
Eakin said that the switch would not hinder the University's ability to function. Because Goddard had been so involved with the comproiler's office previously, many of her office's jobs had been handled by associate director of purchasing Dana Goble.
"It eliminates a layer, essentially," he said. "She's really been doing the lion's share of it the last year anyway. Diane's only handled a few major purchases."
Goble said that the change would not cause too much of a shakeup in the University's financial administration.
Because of ties between the comptroller's office and the purchasing office, Goddard would be able to keep things running smoothly, she said. Goble said that Goddard had been working on multiple projects, so the associate director of purchasing was able to get a good idea of running things.
"Probably the stuff she was handling will fall to me," Goble said. "She's involved with so many other things that I had taken on some of her responsibilities. I'm involved more in the day-to-day operations. It's not much more work for我."
Goble said that Goddard had been a good person to work with.
"It was great," Goble said. "She has a management style that lends itself to positive interaction."
Eakin said that a search for candidates for the purchasing director job was underway. The search would be regional only, and applicants probably would come from a university or other state agency, he said.
Tiny bugs can harbor sharp bite and disease

It's springtime.Take a hike through the woods, and take along the tick repellent.
Deer ticks, found in tall grass and brushy areas, are small, ranging from the size of the head of a pin to the size of the head of a match.
The ticks carry Lyme disease, an illness caused by a microorganism called spirochete, said Randall Rock, physician and chief of staff at Watkins Health Center.
If detected early, Lyme disease can be cured completely with antibiotics. If not treated, it can cause chronic health problems. Rock said.
Phil Stevens, physician in Tonganoxie, said the first sign of Lyme disease was an enlarged red, raised ring with a pale center, which appears three to 32 days after a bite.
Treatment in the early stage consists of a 30-day regimen of antibiotics
"If the patient is not treated at this time, the spirochete can migrate to other parts of the body, including the joints, kidneys, heart, lung and brain." Stevens said. "Advanced cases of Lyme disease may be detected by a blood test and are treated with prolonged antibiotic therapy."
Rock said he was not aware of any active cases of Lyme disease involving KU students.
Don Brown, spokesman for Kansas Department of Health and Environment, said although Lyme disease was uncommon in Kansas, it did exist.
"During 1997, we received four confirmed cases of Lyme disease in Kansas," Brown said.
Stevens said he would encourage the use of a tick repellent that is sprayed on the clothing and is available in sporting goods stores. The active ingredient in the spray is Permethrin. If not available, Stevens said a regular insect repellent should be used.

Campus safety, safewalk program need student effort, involvement
During the past few years, the city of Lawrence and the University of Kansas have done many things to help create a safe campus and community. Programs such as SafeRide, KU on Wheels and the Campus Lighting Project all are worthy programs that have increased safety on campus. Yet, more needs to be done - student involvement is necessary.
Campus safety was a big issue during the Student Senate election. Two weeks ago, a measure to increase safety on campus was given the green light, as Safe Walk, a peer escort program used by other universities, received financial support through a referendum.
The referendum vote and the petition showed that there is a concern for campus safety. Although SafeRide, KU on
Students voted for safewalk; now let's see the actions to back up the words
Wheels, and the increase in blue phones and lighting on campus have helped create a safer campus, many students are still at risk as there are simply too many students for the resources that are available. Thus, the need seemingly has been addressed with the arrival of Safe Walk.
Is Safe Walk the answer? It has been used successfully on campuses such as Brown University and the University of Alberta. Yet, these programs have numerous student volunteers and a structure of student coordinators. The
simple funding of Safe Walk is not enough to have an impact on campus. This new program will require the interest and dedication of students in order for it to be effective. At many schools, the Safe Walk program requires numerous student volunteers so that the program can meet the needs of a large student population. Do we have enough willing students to volunteer for this effort? Let's hope so.
If this program is going to be effective, it needs student support. Hopefully, all the students who were willing to raise student fees will help make this program a reality. Actions speak louder than words. If we, as students, truly are committed to increasing safety on campus, then we surely will give the support it needs to be an effective program.

Giving a vigorous Pat on the Back
The following people deserve a thanks, praise and an enormous Pat on the Back:
Aaron Major, Deerfield, N.H., sophomore and E.J. Reedy, Topeka freshman for organizing the University of Kansas Book Exchange. With the program students can skip the middleman (the bookstores), and sell and exchange books directly with each other. The exchange is a great idea that is long overdue. It will allow students to get a little more money for their books and spend a little less on their new ones.
Sally Frost Mason, dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, for having a reception Wednesday. April 15, for students with high GPAs in the college. She also gave "First CLAS" t-
shirts to the students. The recognition was a good gesture and, particularly for freshmen, made the students feel welcome and proud.
Voluntary Income Tax Assistance volunteers who worked from late January until tax day on April 15 to help others with their taxes. These business and law school student volunteers worked with VITA to provide free tax help to students and low-income Lawrence residents. They worked many long hours both on campus and at an East Lawrence site. Their dedication is admirable and they should be proud — we certainly are proud of them.
individuals to salvage their papers, projects and homework. They work late to lend their computer expertise to those among us that are not as computer literate or patient.
The Computer Center employees for late nights of help and hard work. Many students have had to go to these
Pride Week participants who had the confidence to stand up for their rights and unite with common goals and ideas. Their events last week contributed to the diversity of the University, as does their continued presence. They should be proud of their involvement and initiative.
Everyone we missed this semester. Unfortunately, we couldn't thank everyone who deserves a Pat on the Back. But to all of those hard workers at the University, who are most of you, every effort is appreciated — thank you for your dedication.

you remember him, too — the raspy voice, the wrap-around shades, the two hit songs. (And there were only two.)

down Massachusetts Street on Saturday night.
The marque in front of the Granada didn't exactly scream the name. It was more of a casual mention.
There was no fanfare in the student newspaper, no hero's welcome for the man who brought us "Wild Thing," a tune about the ins and out of life's lustful urges.
There was no hype like the hype that surrounded the somewhat embarrassing return of Vanilla Ice, the white rapper who in the early '90s made up his life story, stole a song from Queen, shaved his eyebrows, and then bit the dust when everyone found out his real name was Robbie Van Winkle. (By the way, I hear he's coming back to Lawrence for round two.)
Nope, nothing like that for the return of Tone Loc.
So when I saw his name displayed so quietly on the marquee, I thought about the way our culture exalts pop-chart savior after pop-chart savior, only to forget about them moments later.
And I kicked myself for not buying tickets.
I dug it out of the cardboard box full of tapes in my back seat. I picked it up, blew the dust off, slid it into the tape deck, turned up what little bass my Camry has and instantly was taken back to the late '80s.
Then it occurred to me: Somewhere in the back of my car I had a copy of his debut album. It was one of those things that I had kept around as a souvenir from the carefree days of elementary school.
Then there was "Cheeba Cheeba," a song that I now realize was about Tone's fondness for a certain green leaf plant.
It was a time when I was too young to grasp even the fundamentals of many of the things people such as Tone Loc were rapping about. And Johnson County was light-years away from New York and Los Angeles, but it didn't matter to me.
As a sixth-grader, I loved the rhythms,
the clever lyrics, and the rebellious aspects
of rap music. And I especially liked Tone
Loc.
What people didn't know was that, in addition to the radio-friendly hits, his album contained some risqué material. Most of his songs were peppered with strange and magnificent profanities that made me blush.
I'm in love with Mary Jane/She's my main thing
The lyrics I didn't understand were mildly frustrating but mostly fascinating. So the album was quite a score. I used to play the popular songs for my parents and my sister while we drove around in the car, but I fast-forwarded past the bawdier rhymes.
Driving around on Saturday night, listening to Tone Loc and laughing with friends, all of the songs made a lot more sense. And I didn't have to fast-forward past the lewd content.
And I remember wondering, as I pressed the headphones to my ears in sixth grade, who exactly this Mary Jane was and what was so wonderful about her.
She makes my heart sing.
What a perfect opportunity to reminisce about a more innocent time in my life. What a perfect excuse to roll around Lawrence with his tape playing.
I heard a raspy voice that was strangely familiar. I looked up, and sure enough Tone Loc was standing in the dining room. He was wearing sweats, stretching and looking as though he had had a rough night.
I nearly choked on my biscuits and gravy.
The next morning, I was eating brunch at the Eldridge Hotel.
The tape stayed in my back seat for all these years. For some reason, I kept it around instead of throwing or giving it away.
What a strange juxtaposition, I thought — Tone Loc in the Eldridge Hotel. He somehow stayed with me as I grew up — from sixth grade to my junior year of college.
I thought about going up to Tone Loc and telling him the story of how I saw his name on the marquee and then found his tape in the back seat of my car, and how I have always been a big fan.
But now, he has faded far enough out of pop-culture consciousness that the only person who recognized him in the Eldridge Hotel Sunday morning was a college student who used to dream of rebellion while listening to Tone Loc's commercial-rap novelty songs.
But I didn't. I just smiled, watched him walk out of the room and returned to my biscuits and gravy.
Funny, I thought. Ten years ago, he would have needed three bodyguards to even set foot in a public place.

along with my wormdown heart, for a good cry. I needed to clean out my emotional closet, and the only viable option seemed to be saltwater.

I walked down my street and thought about the past week. It was a week of extremes — of goods and bads, highs and lows, wonderfuls and terribles. I long had thought that when you had a lot of ups and downs, then you could average them out and label your life as somewhere in the middle. Yeah, I thought. But who wants to lead a life of averages?
I walked past someone's illacs. They smelled heavenly, reminding me of a house my family once lived in that had illacs in the yard. I thought about the old house and the times we spent there — happy times, mostly — and the sweet smell and the fond memories somehow made me even more melancholy. Such is life, I thought, and I turned right again.
to turn. Such is life, I thought, and turned right for no reason at all.
I had come to the neighborhood grade school. I walked to the playground and sat in a swing. I swung my feet and began to swing back and forth. The mechanics of the activity came back to me, and I swung harder and harder until I was moving with the same speed and movement-induced glee
Maybe I was right about the ups and down, I thought. Maybe the trick is averaging. Here I sit at the middle point of the swing's path and life seems OK, if a little too quiet. But maybe this middle ground isn't such a bad thing — certainly there's less of a risk here at equilibrium than searching for the highs while risking the inevitable lows.
My legs had gone to sleep as I had sat there thinking, so I swung them underneath me and began to swing again. It was dark now, and the ride was even more thrilling because, even though I had a guess where I was headed, I couldn't tell exactly where I was going. It struck me that this concern about my direction had troubled me an hour earlier as I left the house. As I swung up and down again, I relished the ride. I hadn't taken a walk for the heck of it without direction for quite some time, likewise, it had been too long that I had just been glad for the ride.
After all, I thought, what's the use of sitting when you can swine?
Shreds of the past week came back to me as I swung. Problems with class — down. A good time Thursday — up. A lousy Saturday — down. An unexpected letter from an old friend — iup. I swung for 10 minutes, recalling the good and bad as I went up and down. I stopped pumping my legs and the swing began to lose its momentum. After a while, it stopped. Such is life, I thought. And I sat there.
For the first time, I noticed that the day was motionless. There was no wind, no cars and no one in sight. It was still, almost eerie. Seconds before I had heard the week replay itself in my head and had felt the air rush by as I swung but now, stillness.

Awareness week subtracts fear of math
By Emily C. Forsyth
bysyth@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Don't fear, Math Awareness Week is here.
On Thanksgiving, Math Awareness Week is here!
A full week of activities at the University of Kansas and nationwide aims to increase awareness of and enthusiasm for mathematics.
Charles Himmelberg, chairman of the math department, said that the idea was to get students excited about math at an early age and to encourage them to keep studying.
"If kids wait too long to start studying mathematics, maybe they get afraid of it," Himmelberg said.
Bozena Pasik-Duncan, professor of mathematics and organizer of the week, said that activities would involve students from the elementary level to the university level.
The week's activities will include lectures, exhibits, panel discussions, workshops and competitions for students.
"We want to show students that KU is a great place and that we have outstanding students who are involved in workshops and competitions," Pasik-Duncan said.
She said that the partnership between schools was beneficial for both students and teachers.
"We can be better teachers if we have to
explain our research at the lower level," Pasik-Duncan said. "It's not enough to do research or teaching. It's great to give something back to the community."
The theme of this year's Mathematics Awareness Week is imaging, which is the mathematical process of constructing a visual representation of data which involves modifying, restoring, transmitting and reproducing pictures.
Pasik-Duncan she had received an enthusiastic response from schools wanting to take part in the activities. More than 500 elementary school students will participate during the week.
Mathematics Awareness Week began in 1986 with a proclamation by President Ronald Reagan. The Kansas Senate proclaimed April 26-May 2 Mathematics Awareness Week in Kansas in a resolution initiated by Sen. Sandy Praeger, R-Lawrence. A similar proclamation will be issued by the city of Lawrence today.
Himmelberg said that Math Awareness Week had grown.
Himmelberg said that imaging was involved in everything from making animated movies to studying molecules.
"Every year, it gets a little bigger," Himmelberg said. "It the whole idea is to get students excited about mathematics and get them to keep on studying it." Himmelberg said.

Minorities get red carpet treatment
The Associated Press
Schools are trying to raise enrollment
There he was at the Alumni House one recent night, the sun setting over San Francisco Bay and mambo music in the background. The event was aimed at signing up Hispanics like the 17-year-old Farias for the school's first freshman class of the post-affirmative action era.
Farias, one of about 400 Hispanics admitted this fall, is disappointed with the dropping numbers of minorities on campus since California's sweeping ban on racial preferences.
But he was impressed by Berkeley's efforts to enroll him. In addition to receptions, the school is waging a bold courtship that includes a mailing campaign, a videotape, phone calls from faculty and students and, in some cases, even a phone call from the man in charge, Chancellor Bob Berdahl.
BERKELEY, Calif. — Rafael Farias knows a come-on when he sees one, and he knows he is being wood in a big way by the University of California.
Approved in November 1996. Proposition 209 forbids state and local governments from extending preferential treatment on the basis of race, sex, color or ethnicity.
The controversial measure is being watched closely across the nation, and similar laws face legal challenges in such states as Michigan and Texas.
Now, as Berkeley prepares to enroll a class with the lowest numbers of blacks and Hispanics admitted in more than a decade, administrators, faculty and students are engaged in an all-out pursuit for recruits.
"They really want us," Farias said with a smile.
Last fall, 1,045 Hispanics, 662
blacks and 69 American Indians
were admitted to Berkeley. The
numbers for this fall are much
Outreach efforts are being waged throughout the nine-campus system of the University of California that emphasize personal contact.
Normally, far fewer students enroll than are admitted. At Berkeley, just below 40 percent of African-American and Hispanic students admitted have enrolled in recent years.
At UCLA, students are turning into telemarketers, working the phones after class to try to persuade students to sign up. In San Diego, recruiters are going to the homes of prospects. Recruiters at UC-Davis struck an outdoor note with a big picnic in April.
lower — 434 Hispanics, 191 Afri can Americans and 27 American Indians.
Campus officials won't know until May, the deadline for statements of intent to enroll.
This year, officials know they are fighting to hold on to the cream of the crop, the kind of students deep-pocketed private universities
Is it working?
Farias, for instance, also is being pursued by Stanford University, where officials have the money to send him a plane ticket for the trip from his home in Southern California.
vearn to enroll.
But like Farias, she also was being wooded by other big schools such as the University of Pennsylvania and Dartmouth University. It was going to take more than a Friday night dance at the Alumni House to win her over.
Maria Leia, a high school student from Boston who also attended the reception, said Berkeley's minority recruitment effort demonstrates a lot about what the values of the school are.
"It's a tough choice," said Farias, who's waiting to evaluate offers of financial aid before making his choice.
The Berkeley overtures are a three-week affair, starting with the admissions packet and leading to calls from students and school officials.
UConn's attempts to tame parties end in riot
The Associated Press
STORRS, Conn. — Officials at the University of Connecticut had hoped they could control the annual raucous partying of "Spring Weekend" by organizing sanctioned events, even offering beer to students 21 and older.
But few students showed up for the approved festivities, and the weekend ended early Sunday with police using pepper spray to disperse a bottle-throwing crowd that flipped cars and set one car on fire. No serious injuries were reported. However, between Thursday and Sunday, 58 people
were arrested on charges including inciting to riot, assault on a police officer and breach of peace. Dozens of tickets were issued for liquor and motor vehicle violations.
"I'm enormously disappointed and frustrated that the very hard work of our student leaders and staff was ruined by the very unacceptable and disturbing behavior of a very small minority of the student body," said Mark Emmert, chancellor of the university.
The school canceled sanctioned festivities Saturday after the first round of events drew sparse crowds and after wild behavior at an off-campus party Friday. At that
party, officers were pelted with rocks and bottles and 23 police cruisers were damaged, state police said.
"University-sponsored and student-planned activities did not attract students, and there was no reason to believe that Saturday's events would have been any different." Emmert said.
Saturday night, several thousand people gathered in a campus parking lot, drinking and chanting expletives at police who were there to keep an eye on the crowd, witnesses said.
threw a flaming couch on a car.
Three other cars were overturned, some buildings were vandalized and a number of windshields were smashed, police said.
Police in riot gear moved in about 1 a.m. in sion when some partiers
"It was insane," said J.P. Rizzitelli, Bridgeport senior. "Everyone was just going out to destroy stuff. It was like a war zone."
In recent years, the annual spring celebration has been plagued with trouble. Last year, an off-campus party that drew about 5,000 students resulted in a reported rape, dozens of arrests, an injured state police officer, bonfires and a damaged fire truck.

Injury strikes; KU players are out
By John Blakely Wilson
Kansan sportswriter
Kansas baseball head coach Bobby Randall glanced down his bench last Sunday and found himself a bit lonely.
"We only had 18 healthy bodies, and nine of those were pitchers," Randall said. "I've never seen this many injuries in a five-year stretch before."
The Jayhawks (18-28) started the season with 27 on the roster, even after outfielder Harrison Hill broke his leg in football last fall.
Then came injuries — and surgeries. Third baseman Sparky Wilhelm missed five games earlier in the season with a fractured cheekbone, and shortstop John Nelson won't play the rest of this season after catching a fast ball in the nose last week. Four other players have undergone surgery this season:
■ First baseman Randy Case, shoulder
■ First baseman Chad King, shoulder
- Pitcher Chad Shuster, knee
- Pitcher Franco Martinez, elbow
Add 2 wins in the Jayhawk's last 15 games and the mononucleosis second baseman and team batting average leader Andy Juday contracted a couple of weeks ago to the list, and the Jayhawks could use a couple of months off.
"People blame everything else on El Nino. So I the only reason I can think of for all our hurts would El Nino." Randall liked.
"We're missing so many key guys that our everyday players are getting worn out."
Randall said. "The guys that are playing are fatigued and inexperienced."
With a rugged April schedule that has seen the team play 22 games in 28 days, the few players that have remained healthy have had to play almost everyday.
Randall said the team suffered
"I've never seen this many injuries in a five-year stretch before."
"We've been close in so many games, but we have few options."
Bobby Randall
Kansas baseball coach
"This team was in great shape at the beginning of the season."
Randall said. "The injuries were not muscle pulls that come from being out of shape, but freak accidents like getting hit with line drives."
Underclassmen like outfielders
Brett Kappelmann and Doug Dreher and shortstop Brandon O'Neal have received considerable playing time.
"It's hard when a player is playing high school ball in Hays one year and playing against Texas A&M's juniors and seniors the next," Randall said of Dreher. "It's a credit to the young guys that we have been so competitive this season."
- The final quarter hot dog day of 1998 will take place today at Hoglund-Maupin Stadium as the Jayhawks play the Kansas State in a non-conference game at 7 p.m. Kansas closes out their Big 12 Conference schedule with three games this weekend against the Wildcats in Manhattan.

The Jayhawks shot a final round 328, which stopped any hopes of a comeback and a postseason tournament spot.
Texas A&M won the championship

Kansas was led by senior Beth Reuter, who tied for 33rd with her score of 241 (81-75-85). Freshman Jamie Tucker finished in a tie for 35th with a 243 total (82-79-82). Junior Mandy Munsch tied for 39th with four other golfers at 244 (80-83-81).
Susan Tessary, one of the Jayhawks' hottest golfers heading into the championship, ended her sophomore campaign with a 43rd-place finish. Tessary shot 86-78-81 and a total of 245. Also for Kansas, Ashely Bishop finished 59th with her total of 261 (88-89-84).
Coach Jerry Waugh said that the golfers had to contend with windy conditions Friday and Saturday and with rain on Sunday but that the weather was not a factor in the finish.

"I had felt we would finish about seventh or eighth place, but our performance on the last day was less than average," Waugh said.

Waugh said that Iowa State played well enough Sunday that even if the Jayhawks had played up to their potential, they probably would not have surpassed them.
The men's golf team finished the first round of its Big 12 Championship yesterday in fifth place. Weather permitting, the Jayhawks were scheduled to play 18 more holes yesterday and 18 holes today. The championship is being held at the Prairie Dunes Country Club in Hutchinson.
Men's golfers Brad Barnett and Brad Davis were selected to the 1998 Academic All-Big 12 team that was announced last week.
Jayhawks to end season today
Barnett is a senior in Business Administration and Spanish and is the fourth starter on the 31st-ranked Jayhawks. Davis, a junior majoring in Business Administration, was ranked 65th nationally last fall. Davis holds a stroke average of 73.6.
Kansas softball team receives sixth seed in Big 12 tourney
By Laura Bokenkroger
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas softball team received a little luck last weekend.
After splitting with Missouri, the Jayhawks' chances of moving into the winners bracket of the Big 12 Tournament looked bleak.
Texas A&M needed just one victory against visiting Baylor to seal the sixth seed, the last spot in the double elimination bracket. But the game went nine innings and ended in a tie because of rain. The second game was canceled, and Texas A&M finished 6-10-1 in the league.
The Jayhawks, who are 7-11 in the Big 12, got the sixth seed and will face third-seeded Texas at 12:30 p.m. Friday in Oklahoma City.
The Jayhawks will end the regular season in a doubleheader against Creighton at 3 and 5 p.m. today at Jayhawk Field. The first two scheduled meetings between the two teams were canceled because of rain.
The Jayhawks will face Texas pitcher Christa Williams, the youngest member of the 1986 United States Olympic Gold Medal team and an All-American in her freshman year at UCLA. Williams, who has a 70 mph fastball, led UCLA to the championship game against Arizona last year before transferring to Texas.
Kansas will leave tomorrow for Hall of Fame Stadium in Oklahoma City and practice Thursday before opening the tournament against Texas Friday afternoon.
"Just because we only had one hit that game doesn't mean we didn't hit the ball hard." Stanwix said. "It'll be a challenge to face her again, but I hope I'm never intimidated by anyone. She has a lot of different pitches, a hard fast ball and a great change-up. I think our key will be staying back on the change-up and the rise ball."
The Jayhawks faced Williams earlier this season, and first baseman Shannon Stanwix broke up a no-hitter by driving in the Jayhawks only run. Kansas was ahead 1-0 in the

bottom of the seventh, but a two-run double by Texas gave the Longhorns the 2-1 victory.
Juco transfer looks at Kansas
Ashante Johnson, a 6-foot-9 junior college swinger from California, told teammates he loved his visit to the University of Kansas last weekend.
Johnson, who averaged 23 points and 14 rebounds last season, said he would consider signing with Kansas, Xavier, Florida State or Pepperdine in the coming weeks.
The deadline for the late signing period is May 15.
His coach, Mike Legarza, said he had heard that Johnson liked the University.
"I haven't talked to hm yet," Legarza said. "But from talking to some of his teammates, he really had a good time. He loved the campus. The coaches there obviously think he fits their system well because they had him to visit."
Johnson shot 54 percent from the field last year and 39 percent from behind the three-point line. He helped Canada (Calif.) Junior College go 20-4 and advance to the final four of the California junior college tournament, in which 160 teams participated.

HOROSCOPES
Today's birthday (April 28)
Today you are feeling a bit of jealousy toward some of your friends. Don't let it get in the way of your friendship. Even though it seems to be bothering you, try to blow it off.
Aries: Today is a 7.
Listening to advice gets you further today than following your headstrong ways. Others are capable of coming up with good ideas, too. Friends have a big influence on your day.
Taurus: Today is a 5.
You may be faced with disillusion or disappointment today. Even though you have been working hard, it still is insufficient. It is too easy to become impatient with others who do not understand your problem.
Gemini: Today is a 7.
Motivational speakers and surrealists alike can expect a wonderful day. Plans and visions fill your head, some of them strange, all of them possible. You are allowed to take back what you said yesterday.
Cancer: Today is a 6.
You can only hide for so long before you have to come and face the music. Something you have been dreading may not be so bad after all. Ignore your feelings, and lead with your thoughts.
Leo: Today is a 7.
Your chances for success are excellent but so is the possibility of sabotaging your own efforts. Competition may lead to your downfall. Be satisfied with what you get today.
Virgo: Today is a 6.
If you are stuck today, this may be a good time to help others. A change in the weather finds you improperly dressed. Take extra vitamins to keep up your resistance.
You know what you want as soon as you see it. If you are smart and brave, you will go forward and claim what you discover. Romance and treasure hunting are favored activities today.
Capricorn: Today is a 6.
Sagittarius: Today is an 8.
男 女
2
O
The environment around you is a single living organism that does not appreciate your interference. Try not to make any ripples today, much less waves. This is a bad day to engage in personal combat.
Scorpio: Today is a 5.
Aquarius: Today is an 8.
LION
Once you get started on a topic close to your heart, you have a lot more to say than you realize. Your sudden expertise makes a positive impression on others. Everyone is an optimist today.
舞
Whether you started it, you are at the center of all the action today. If you want attention, that's just what you will get. Your exploits take on a mythical quality at this time.
Not everyone shares your sense of responsibility. This may be because not everyone is as involved as you are. You may have to change your expectations of others if you wish to work with them.
Pisces: Today is a 6.
LIFE AT LAW
Rowing
You seek tranquility in a world that is anything but tranquil. Unplug yourself from the system, and find a place to meditate. Doing nothing for awhile is just what the doctor ordered.
The Kansas rowing team faced its toughest competition of the year this weekend at the FutureSystems Midwest Rowing Championships in Madison, Wis.

Kansas paddles away successful from meet
The biggest finish came from the boat Varsity-Lightweight Four, which was a close second to Northwestern in the finals. The Jayhawks came across the finish line in 8:05.85, a little more than five seconds off of the lead.
In a day dominated by boats from the Big 10, the Jayhawks came away successful in several races.
SCORPIO
Another successful Kansas boat was the Novice Eight, which finished sixth in the final. They reached the finals by upsetting boats from Michigan, Drake and Minnesota to finish second in their preliminary heat.
The Varsity Lightweight Eight took home a sixth-place finish in the finals of their race after a second-place finish in the preliminary heat, where they defeated boats from Creighton, Miami, Notre Dame and Wisconsin.
The Second Varsity Eight finished sixth in their final race after a fourplace finish in their preliminary heat. The Second Novice Eight also finished fourth in their preliminary heat.
The Varsity Eight will travel to San Francisco next week to compete in dual races against California, Stanford, Washington State and Sacramento State. The rest of the team will compete at the Great Plains Rowing Championships in Topeka.

Former pitcher injured in Dominican car crash
V
SANTO DOMINGO, Dominican Republic — Hall of Fame pitcher Juan Manichal sustained serious head injuries when his car ran off the highway and crashed before dawn yesterday.
Marcharal was listed in serious but stable condition with injuries to the head, neck, spine and left leg at Santo Domingo's Armed Forces Hospital, said a hospital director, Pedro Delrado Valdez.
Police said weather was not a factor and the accident was being investigated.
He was later transferred to a medical center in the capital to undergo head X-rays.
"We will keep him under constant observation, but his situation isn't critical," Delgado Valdez said.
The accident happened at 5 a.m. in Villa Altagracia, about 30 miles north of Santo Domingo. Police said Manichal was returning to Santo Domingo from the provincial capital of Santiago.
His driver, Bernardino Lopez Ferreras, and a security guard, Eduardo Rodriguez, also were injured seriously and were hospitalized in stable condition.
Marichal's family and government officials rushed to the hospital, where the former star pitcher had regained consciousness, Delgado Valdez said.
Marichal was appointed Dominican sports minister when Leoneil Fernandez was inaugurated president in 1996.
Marichal had a 243-142 record while pitching for the San Francisco Giants, Boston Red Sox and Los Angeles Dodgers. He had a career 2.89 ERA and won 20 or more games on seven occasions. He pitched a no-hitter for the Giants in 1963.
In March, Marichal was briefly hospitalized in the Dominican Republic for diabetes.
Player gets jail time in sexual assault case
BUFALO, N.Y. The state Court of Appeals refused to review
HARVARD
Atlanta Falcons line-
backer Cornelius
Bennett's sexual assault
case yesterday, clearing
the way for a 60-day jail term. Associate Judge Carmen Cipark had delayed the start of Bennett's
sentence two weeks ago pending her decision on whether the full court should review the case.
Her ruling yesterday said there is no question of law presented which ought to be reviewed by the Court of Appeals and that permission was denied.
In their request to the state's highest court, Bennett's attorneys claimed the sentence given Bennett after he pleaded guilty to misdemeanor sex abuse was too harsh. Attorney Leonard Zaccagnino contended Bennett, a former member of the Buffalo Bills, received a jail term only because of his celebrity status.
Bennett played for the Bills for nine years before signing a four-year, $13.6 million contract with the Falcons two years ago. He still could face disciplinary proceedings under the NFL's collective bargaining agreement.
In addition to the jail sentence, City Court Judge Robert Russell Jr. fired Bennett $1,000, ordered him to pay $617,26 of the woman's hospital bills, perform 100 hours of community service, and undergo anger-management and substance-abuse counseling.
Bennett was due back in City Court yesterday, where his attorneys were expected to ask a judge to resentence him without a jail term. Assistant District Attorney Ray Herman said.
Bennett entered the plea Sept. 9 in connection with a violent encounter last May 18 in a Buffalo hotel room that sent a woman to a hospital. No details of the incident have been released.
Bennett's attorneys did not immediately return a phone call seeking comment.

NBA names best rookie
Spurs' Duncan Rookie of the Year by large margin
The Associated Press
SAN ANTIONIO — After just one season, Tim Duncan is drawing comparisons to the likes of David Robinson and K ev i n McHale. Duncan, a major force in leading the
GRAB
San Antonio Spurs to a record turnaround this season, overwhelmingly was voted the NBA's Rookie of the Year yesterday.
"It's a goal I had coming into this year," he said. "I wanted to play well this year and win this award."
The No.1 draft pick from Wake Forest received 113 of 116 votes (97 per
PETER TOWNSEND
cent) from a panel of NBA writers and broadcasters. New Jersey's Keith Van Horn got the other three votes.
Duncan: named NBA Rookie of the Year.
Duncan's margin of victory was the largest since Shaquille O'Neal received 88 percent of the vote in 1992-93.
"He's big time, just like David (Robinson) was and just like Shaq was," Spurs coach Gregg Popovich said. "His demeanor and approach to this whole business is uncommon and extraordinary."
With Duncan in the lineup and Robinson returning from foot and back injuries, the Spurs went 56-26 in the regular season, an improvement of 36 victories from their 1996-97 mark.
San Antonio set another league record by holding opponents 41.1 percent shooting. After missing the playoffs last season, the Spurs qualified this year with the fifth-best record in the Western Conference.
"It's been great playing with every one of my teammates because it's a veteran crew," said the seven-footer from Wake Forest, who was the top pick in last June's NBA draft. "I came in here with little pressure on me because we had such a core of great players."
Duncan became the first rookie to play in the NBA All-Star Game since Grant Hill in 1995.
He averaged 21.1 points, 11.9 rebounds, 2.7 assists, 2.5 blocks and shot .549 from the field. He was the 19th rookie in NBA history to average at least 20 points and 10 rebounds.
Duncan led all rookies in scoring, rebounding, blocks and field goal percentage and ranked seventh in assists. He ranked third in rebounding, fourth in field goal percentage, sixth in blocks and 13th in scoring among all players.
Knicks rage to avenge loss
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — The New York Knicks needed to lose control of their emotions to get even with the Miami Heat.
As both teams prepared yesterday for the resumption of their first-round series, the enduring images from Game 2 were of the Knicks venting their feelings.
Chris Childs drew an imaginary knife across his throat; John Starks turned to the Miami Arena fans and pointed at the words "New York" on his chest; Terry Cummings let out a primal scream as the final buzzer sounded.
Those types of outbursts are not unique to the Knicks, yet they are a team that seems to need them in order to play at their highest level. In Game 1, the Knicks were flat. In Game 2, following a players-only meeting Saturday night, they were fiery.
"When we're not emotional, we don't play well," Childs said Monday. "We don't hit, we don't bang,
we don't do the things we need to do."
So expect more of the same from
So expect more New York on Tuesday night when the series, tied 1-1, resumes at Madison Square Garden.
The Heat players took notice of the Knicks' outbursts, which were punctuated by Childs spiking at the end of the
MIAMI
BASKET
Childs spiking the ball to the floor at the end of the game.
"When Chris threw that ball down, that caught my attention," P.J. Brown said."
At practice Monday in Boca Raton, Fla. Heat coach Pati Riley
MIAMI HEAT
KNICKS
addressed Childs' throat-slitting gesture with this comment: "Who
knows what he was doing? Maybe he was scratching his throat. Maybe he had a little tickle in his throat."
The Heat have a career record of 3-22 in New York, including 2-7 with Riley. But they also have the league's best road record in the past two seasons, and one of their victories in New York came in Game 6 of last year's second round.
This year's series has been free from similar incidents, and until the fourth quarter of Sunday's game the harbsest feelings may have been felt by Cummings, who was angered that coach Jeff Van Gundy kept him glued to the bench for the entire 48 minutes of Game 1.
Cummings became a key contributor in Game 2, grabbing 14 rebounds in 27 minutes and playing good defense on Alonzo Mourning, forcing the Miami center away from the basket and out of his comfort zone.
Van Gundy said Patrick Ewing will not be in uniform tonight.

Jamison heads to the NBA
He will graduate in summer school
The Associated Press
CHAPEL HILL, N.C. — Antawn Jamison is convinced he is ready for pro basketball, and he will be heading to the NBA with degree in hand.
The national player of the year said yesterday that he will forgo his senior year at North Carolina, passing
NCC
up a chance to become the Atlantic Coast Conference's career scoring leader, to enter the NBA draft on June 24.
"When it was time to leave it was difficult to swallow because these three years have probably been the best three years of my life," Jamison said. "It is a lot more difficult than I thought it would be."
At a news conference, the 6-foot 9 forward was joined by coach Bill Guthridge, former coach Dean Smith, parents Albert and Kathy Jamison and several teammates.
"A big reason you are in coaching is you want what's best for your players." Guthridge said. "There aren't many that get this opportunity. So you are thrilled for him."
Jamison is the 13th player to declare early for the NBA draft, joining players such as Mike Bibby of Arizona, Paul Pierce of Kansas and Robert Traylor of Michigan. Among the 13 are two high school players.
Smith advises underclassmen to turn pro if they are projected in the draft's top five. He called at least 16 NBA teams to gauge interest for Jamison.
Jamison, the school's first national player of the year since Michael Jordan in 1984, said he would get his college degree in African studies after two sessions of summer school, meaning he will graduate two semesters ahead of his class.
"The most important thing for me is no matter what happens, I have the opportunity to graduate this summer," he said.
"That was the most important thing about coming to school, to get a degree and maybe having a chance to play in the NBA. I am so close to getting both at the same time it was an opportun-
Jamison, the ACC player of the year, averaged 22.2 points and 10.5 rebounds this season and became the first North Carolina player since Billy Cunningham in 1964-65 to average a double-double.
nity I couldn't pass up."
He finished seventh on North Carolina's scoring list and fourth in rebounding. This year, he set season marks for field goals and rebounds and was second in points in leading the Tar Heels to a 34-4 record and their second straight Final Four. North Carolina lost to Utah in the semifinals.
Jamison said there was no chance he would withdraw his name before the draft, even if the NBA owners were to lock out the players.
"I have made my decision, and there's no turning back now," he said. "I am aware there could be a negative thing with the lockout, but I'm willing to take that chance."
Guthridge said Vince Carter will decide within two weeks whether he will turn pro after his junior season. The last time North Carolina lost two players early to the NBA was in 1995, when Jerry Stackhouse and Rasheed Wallace left after their sophomore years.
PORTLAND, Ore. — A Little League team in North Carolina dedicated its season to him, a Colorado teacher asked him to give a never-quit pep talk to high school students and handicapped Boy Scouts in Georgia were inspired by him.
The Associated Press
Handicapped child touches nation
People all around America have been touched by the story of 11-year-old Kacey McCallister, who despite losing both legs plays baseball and basketball by scooting and propelling himself with his arms.
The calls and letters to his house have come from Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, Ohio, Colorado and California. And those are just the states Kacey's mom could think of off the top of her head.
"It's cool," Kacey said. "It's a lot of inspiration."
All the attention came after newspapers nationwide published an Associated Press story and photos of Kacey earlier this month. The irrepressible freckle-faced sixth grader lost both legs at the hip when he was run over by a truck five years ago.
"I have so many papers that have been sent to me from around the country that I don't know where to stick them," said Kacey's mother, Julene.
A woman in Waco, Texas, sent Kacey a catcher's mitt. A California pilot who lost both arms but still flies had a long conversation with the boy.
"I don't know," Mrs. McCallister said. "I think it helps lift people when they see somebody is going through something maybe more challenging than they are and is still smiling."
Craig Conrad, a teacher at Moffatt County High School in Craig, Colo., had Kacey and his mother talk to his class via speaker phone.
"My kids make all kinds of excuses why they can't get their projects done." Conrad said, "and this kid has no legs, and he doesn't let that stop him. It's an inspirational story for all kids to hear."
The McCallisters had yet to hear from Jim Walker, director of the Institute of Marine Sciences in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., who called the AP bureau in Portland and said he wanted to help Kacey with his education.
The institute offers several scholarships to needy students to attend the University of Miami or Nova University in Fort Lauderdale.
"But he doesn't have to go there," Walker said. "We can put a check in a trust fund for him, and he can go to the college of his choice."
Walker said that he couldn't make any promises but that he is going to present a proposal to the institute's board of directors.
There is more publicity in store for Kacey. CNN is sending a crew to the family's home in Keizer, a Salem suburb, and the TV show "Extra" also plans a story.
While Kacey loves the attention, it has brought some trouble at school.
"Some of the kids who have been mean to me in the beginning got really jealous, so they've been even more mean to me," Kacey said. "But that's OK. I just ignore them."
Kacey said he's even more motivated to succeed by the response his story has received.
"I want to show them that I really can do all this stuff," he said.

Students fire out art for profit in ceramics sale
POTS OF GOLD
By Chris Horton
korton@kansan.com
Konson staff writer
It's time to buy your Mother's Day flowerpot.
The University of Kansas ceramics department will be conducting a ceramics sale tomorrow from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Judy Arnold, Leavenworth senior and participant in the sale, said the sale would feature works from about 12 advanced ceramics students at the junior, senior or graduate student levels.
A group of ceramics professors evaluated the technical aspects of the students' works yesterday, she said. If the jury found a technical flaw, the piece would not be eligible to be entered into the sale, Arnold said.
The sale will take place on the lawn north of the Art and Design building, weather permitting. If it is raining, the sale will be in the building's snack bar area on the third floor.
"The proceeds will go to benefit the ceramics department for visiting artists, new equipment and program enrichment." Arnold said.
"It's a variety of sculptural and functional work, ranging from colorfully painted low-fire surfaces to the mellow earth tones of salt- and wood-fire surfaces." Arnold said.
The sale will offer a wide range of work, she said.
Griffitt, a ceramics major with works available at the sale, said that ceramics was an appealing medium to express himself artistically and that he enjoyed the elements of clay and fire.
Bob Griffitt, Topeka junior, said the students submitting the ceramic art would determine the price of their works.
He said the process he used to create a ceramic piece involved throwing, or forming, the object on a potter's wheel, which was followed by several other stages.
CERAMICS SALE
Where: On the lawn north of the Art and Design building. If it rains, the sale will take place in the building's snack bar area on the third floor.
Prices of ceramic works will be determined by the students who submit them.
Whose work: About 12 advanced ceramics students at the junior, senior or graduate student University levels.
■ When: 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. tomorrow
Griffith's ceramic works are baked in a kiln at 2300 degrees Fahrenheit, he said. During the glaze stage, he bakes the ceramics at 1900 F. Griffith said that working with fire was his favorite aspect of ceramics.
"After I throw it, I let it dry for a few days and then fire it, glaze it and fire it again," he said.
The flexibility of clay, both physically and aesthetically, attracted Suzy Sharp, Overland Park senior, to major in ceramics.
"Like that you can build functional things as well as sculptures." Sharp said.
She said the University was lucky to have two kinds of kilns for its ceramics students. The two varieties of kilns are wood-fire and salt-fire, she said.
The salt-fire kiln is the more modern method of glazing a ceramic work, she said. The kiln is fueled with natural gas and receives salt on the second firing, which replaces the need for a glaze and gives the baked clay a bumpy quality.
"The salt acts like a glaze itself," Sharp said. "It's a cool process."
"You have to keep feeding wood to the fire," Sharp said. "It's old-fashioned — it's how it used to be done."
Sharp also will have works in the sale, she said.
A wood-fire kiln, which gives baked clay a drippy ash look, is more much labor-intensive, she said.
Textbook theft on rise near end of semester
The end of the semester is nearing,
and textbooks are a hot commodity.
By Laura Roddy
lroddy@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
"It's a time we see more thefts of books," said Sgt. Kerry Keary of the KU Public Safety Office. "It's also a time when you really need your books."
Book buyback happens all year, but most students wait until they finish their finals to sell back books to bookstores. The Public Safety Office and area bookstores say that it is easier for students to protect textbooks from being stolen than to try to recover them after a theft.
"Don't leave them unattended for any amount of time." Keary said.
If students have to leave their property, he said, they should leave it only with a trusted friend.
PREVENTING TEXTBOOK THEFT
The area bookstores do a good job of trying to identify possible stolen textbooks, but students also can identify books in some unique manner, Keary said. For instance, students
Tips for avoiding and dealing with textbook thieves
- Don't leave your backpack, or any other property, unattended
- Personally identify books with a name in a place other than the inside cover
- Report thefts to the police as soon as possible
can write their KUID number on a particular page.
Mike Reid, manager of the KU Bookstores, said that it was better to choose a location other than the inside cover to personalize textbooks because that was the first place thieves looked.
Keith Kielman, Jayhawk Bookstore's textbooks manager, said that employees would become suspicious if a student brought in multiple copies of the same textbook. Someone bringing in a mixture of books, such as an upper-level engineering text and an introduction-level math book, also would arouse suspicion, he said.
"If somebody sells back too much, I'm going to question it," Kielman said.
Reid said that all of the area bookstores tried to share information to help reduce thefts and that books reported stolen could be flagged in the stores' systems.
Reid said that if someone seemed suspicious, the KU Bookskoles did not have to buy the textbooks back or could offer an extremely low price and get the student's KUID number to report to the police.
Kielman said that book theft in Lawrence could be worse.
"I think you'll see a lot more theft in cities where there are a lot of campuses in town," he said.
Lexi Flower, St. Louis freshman, said that students should be smart about their property.
"In general, I keep my stuff with me,
but I don't lose sell over it," she said.
Cold, rain won't go away
Low temperatures settle in Kansas for next few days

If you're saving something for a cold, rainy day, here your chance.
"Normally, winds move from east to west, so you will get little thunderstorms and they move on," he said. "But this system is separated from the general atmospheric flow and is showing no signs of going anywhere. It's just sitting here."

melt temperature for this time of year:
"It was in the 80s on Saturday, and it's in the 40s now," Kays said. "We usually have a big difference in temperatures from daytime to night, but now there is only a couple of degrees difference. Until the clouds move out and we get some sunshine, temperatures will stay the same."
"It's supposed to be spring and warm outside, but I guess it's Kansas, so it will probably be snowing tomorrow," she said. "It was unusually warm in the fall though, so I guess we're paying for it now."
"This is common during the spring time because it's kind of a transition time between seasons," he said. "It doesn't happen in the summer or winter as much, but in the spring it's normal."
Kays said this type of weather was not unusual for this time of year.

Four vehicles burglarized in Oliver Hall parking lot
Four vehicles in the Oliver Hall Lot 112 were burglarized early Sunday morning, the KU Office of Public Safety said.
The value of the items stolen and the damage to the vehicles was more than $3,000.
Sgt. Chris Keary said that police were investigating the incidents. He said that any suspect would be considered for all four thefts because of the proximity of the vehicles and the short time frame. Specific damages included:
One University of Kansas student's cellular phone, two amplifiers, sunglasses and seven CDs were taken between 2:30 and 5:30 a.m. The damage to the vehicle was estimated at $200. The items stolen were valued at $798.
■ The window of a Leawood resident's vehicle, which was parked in the Oliver lot, was shattered between midnight and 5:30 a.m., and a $300 speaker and a $100 amplifier were stolen.
A CD case and 25 CDs were stolen from a KU student's vehicle between 2:30 and 5:30 a.m. The damage to the vehicle's window was estimated at $150, and the items were valued at $390.
**Shirts, a backpack, a calculator, cash and a tape player were stolen from a KU student's vehicle between 2:30 and 5:30 a.m. The damage to the vehicle was estimated at $150 and the items were valued at $1.355.
Keary said that students should not to keep valuables in their vehicles.

Someone tampered with the University of Kansas Department of Civil Engineering's Web site and posted pornographic pictures, the KU Public Safety Office said.
Sgt. Chris Keary said that pictures had been posted on the Web site between 2:13 a.m. April 12 and 10:23 a.m. April 13. The pictures have been removed, he said.
Steve McCabe, associate professor of engineering, said that a faculty member discovered the tampered site and immediately corrected it.
The Web site is housed in a computer in Room 1031E in Learned Hall, but the location from which it was altered is unknown.
The police do not have a suspect and still are investigating the crime, which is classified as a computer trespass, Keary said.

NATO changes proposed,
former Soviets involved
— Melissa Ngo
WASHINGTON — Sens. Pat Roberts and John Ashcroft are proposing changes to legislation admitting three former Soviet bloc nations to NATO. But even then, an expansion of the military alliance leaves some struggling to decide.
"I'm still wrestling with it," Roberts, R-Kan,
said Monday. "I hope to be able to vote for
the expansion, but I do have serious con-
cerns about the cost and about the purpose
and timing—and especially the relations
with the former Soviet Union, with Russia."
Roberts and Ashcroft, R-Mo., are sponsoring an amendment that would limit NATO forces to defending the 16 member nations against an armed attack or threat The Clinton administration proposes to broaden NATO's mission so that it can become an international policing organization — effectively answering 911 calls around the world. Ashcroft said.
In a speech on the Senate floor, Ashcroft cited comments by former Defense Secretary William Perry that the alliance no longer existed to deter a Soviet attack but to create peaceful conditions in Europe. NATO's interests, said Perry, should be anywhere in the world where aggression can threaten the security of NATO members.
Ashcroft voted in the Senate Foreign Relations Committee against expanding NATO to include Poland, Hungary and the Czech Republic and is expected to oppose the measure in the full Senate.
Kansas GOP Sen. Sam Brownback, another Foreign Relations panel member, voted for the proposal in committee. A spokesman cautioned that with several major amendments pending, Brownback has not decided what his final vote will be. Sen. Christopher Bond, R-Mo., supports the expansion.

Student Senate committees to elect leaders
By Melissa Ngo
mngo@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Some Student Senate committees will elect chairpersons, vice-chairpersons and members of the first Judicial Board selection committee at 6 tonight in various rooms in the Kansas Union.
University affairs, multicultural affairs, student rights and finance committees will conduct elections for the positions. The graduate affairs committee has a separate application process for the positions and will not have elections tonight.
One member from each of the five committees will be chosen to serve on the Judicial Board selection committee in Fall 1998. That committee chooses the people who serve on the Judicial Board, which was created in Fall 1997.
"The board hears disputes within Student Senate," said Kelly Huffman, former Student Executive Committee chairman. "If organizations have concerns about how they were treated in Senate, or they have concerns with Senate Rules and Regulations, they can turn to this board."
Those eligible to vote must have been a member for at least the last four committee meetings and have met each individual committee's attendance policy, said Kevin Yoder, student body president and chairman of the student rights committee.
"In [student] rights, each member is allowed four absences," Yoder said. "Last night, I went through the list and took off everyone who hadn't met that policy, so they won't be able to vote tonight."
Legislation passed in March changed committee elections from the fall to the spring. Former Student Body President Scott Sullivan attempted to veto the bill but missed the veto deadline, and the bill was enacted.
Sullivan had said that he did not think that having the elections in the spring would fulfill the bill's goal of making committee elections less political.
Ann Marchand, former Journalism senator, sponsored the bill.
"I would hope that committee members would be able to put aside partisan politics and vote for the people who have worked hardest during the last year," she said.

Chancellor hires adviser to assist with policies
By Brandon Copple
bcopple@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Chancellor Robert Hemenway has hired a University of Kansas alumnus and former law professor to serve as counselor to the chancellor.
Reggie Robinson, who holds degrees from the University and from the law school, said he would assist the chancellor with University policy and issues relating to the communities where the University is located.
"My duties haven't been too clearly defined because this is a new position," Robinson said. "But the chancellor and I both believe in developing the University's mission in those communities."
Robinson will not serve as a lawyer for the University. Robinson said 'counselor' was a Washington term for senior adviser.
Hemenway, who was out of town
yesterday and could not be reached, for comment, said in a press release that he was pleased that the University could attract someone with Robinson' qualifications.
PETER C. KING
"The fact that Reggie wanted to come back to
Hemenway: Has hired a KU alumnus to be an adviser.
Kansas makes me realize that the University can be a key factor in enticing people to be a part of the state's future." Hemenway said.
Robinson also will teach one class each semester at the law school, where he was a faculty member before moving to Washington, D.C., in 1993.
In Washington, Robinson was a deputy associate attorney general
and the acting director of the Department of Justice's Office for Victims of Crime.
He said that in those positions he focused largely on policy issues, which would prepare him to deal with policy issues at the University.
"At Justice you deal with a lot of legal issues, of course, but so many of the decisions you make boil down to basic policy questions," he said. "You're making choices that will ultimately lead to the position that the United States or the Clinton administration take on an issue."
Georgann Eglinski, associate dean of law, said Robinson would be a valuable addition to the faculty.
"He was a very highly regarded teacher when he taught here before," she said. "He comes now with a range of experience in Washington which will only add to his allure."

KJHK promotion to give summer trip
By Marcelo Vilela
mvilela@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
University of Kansas students who listen to KJHK may have the chance to travel to Europe this summer.
The student-operated radio station, in conjunction with Council Travel, 622 W. 12th St., and the Rail Europe Group, is sponsoring a promotion to send students to Europe for the summer. The promotion is called "Going The Distance For A European Summer Giveaway."
“It's something we've never done before,” said Angela Wilson, Mapertville, Ill., senior and KJHK's promotion director. “We always do tickets and T-shirt giveaways,
but we never did anything like traveling in this size."
Council Travel will donate the plane tickets to Europe and the European rail pass, she said.
Dan Weiss, Council Travel manager, said that his agency was busiest during late spring.
The last chance for students to register for the promotion will be Saturday at KJHK's tent at Student Union Activities' Day On The Hill. Registrations cannot be made by phone. Students must be 18 or older to register and cannot be employed by the radio station.
The promotional travel package includes air travel from Kansas City to New York to Paris. The promotion also includes a five-day rail pass valid for two months. The pass is valid for travel to Italy, Spain, France, Germany and
Switzerland. The package does not include food or living expenses.
The winner also will receive a four-piece luggage set from American Tourister, 1025 N. Third St. The promotion package is worth $1,100.
"We thought European travel and travel in general was of great interest to KU students." Wilson said.
Beginning May 3 and continuing through May 7, KJHK will draw a name daily for a final drawing. At 10 a.m. on May 8, one name out of the five finalists will be annquenced.
The person whose name is drawn will have 90.7 minutes to call the station and claim the prize, Wilson said.
If the announced winner does not call during the allotted time, another name will be drawn. The winner must have his or her student identification number ready to receive the prize.

Students have right to see finals long after the end of semester
It is time for the University to implement an across-the-board policy requiring teachers to hang on to final exams long after grades are turned in.
Test taking in itself is frustrating, but more perplexing is the fact that once a final is handed in, the test taker may never see it again.
Students sometimes can only gauge how they did on a final based on the grade that appears on their report card. Students not only want to see the final exam, but have a right to see it. Tests also should be kept because students have the right to contend a course grade one year from the time the grade is given.
Seeing a test, especially a final which is often comprehensive, allows students to see how much they learned and is a teaching tool in itself. There is no point
The University needs a policy that would require teachers to keep finals after grades are in
in taking a test or giving a test if students cannot get the test back to see if they were wrong or right.
But this rarely happens with final exams. Students take them, hand them in and never see them again. There are a few exceptions. Some teachers will mail tests to students who leave the professor a self-addressed, stamped envelope. Other teachers will tell a class that if the students want to see their final, that he or she will have it available for a short time. And some departments require that teachers hang on to exams
so students can see them.
The Western Civilization department holds tests for one year. The psychology department keeps final exams for one semester.
Those departments, and others with similar policies, should be commended.
But this is not a University-wide trend. The College of Liberal Arts and Sciences has no such policy in place, and that is a travesty for students who study hard and never get to see the results of their work.
The University should require departments or professors to hold exams for at least six months after the tests are administered. That is ample time for a student to go to a professor and see a test they have every right to review.
If a student does not want to use that right, then they do not have to. But the opportunity should exist.

Feedback
Job instability article misleading, uninformed
Melissa Ngo's article last Monday about job instability was irresponsible and misleading. College students are now forming their perceptions of the labor market. These perceptions will guide how they approach their job search upon graduation. By failing to report the facts, Ngo's article encourages college students to unnecessarily prolong their undergraduate and graduate degrees. KU students should not be under the impression that the current labor market is as bleak as was depicted in the article.
Recent statistics, as reported by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, indicate that today's labor market is the strongest in more than a generation. The U.S. employment rate for March
was 4.7 percent, just slightly above the generation-low 4.6 percent in February. Kansas boasted a figure below the national average at 3.4 percent unemployment. Furthermore, in the Kansas City area the unemployment rate is even lower. In the last year, hourly wages have significantly increased even though inflation has been virtually nonexistent. Thus, the purchasing power of the average American worker has increased.
In contrast to the article's implications, the outlook for the college educated is bright. The unemployment rate for college-educated workers is 1.9 percent. Engineering Career Services, Business Career Services and the University Career and Employment Services have noted an increase in the number of firms recruiting KU graduates in the last five years. Although the job-for-life
mentality is dying, this may be a welcome change. A rigid labor market and a growing economy are an inconsistent phenomena. Workers are more free now than they have ever been. Opportunities for self employment and getting in on the ground level of a small firm are increasing. These factors, coupled with low unemployment, suggest a promising job market.
The article is full of anecdotal evidence not indicative of the overall economy. It is embarrassing that The University Daily Kansan would run a front page article on economics without ever consulting an economist. We hope that journalistic integrity will increase in the future.

Naked hike on campus more than expected
A h spring. A time when a young man's thoughts turn to love ... to life...to walking home from Potter Lake totally naked while surrounded by a
Nick Bartkoski opinion@kansan.com
Lake totally naked while large group of clothed guys. I guess some of us have extremely different priorities.
My scholarship hall is chocked full of bizarre traditions from demanding (without receiving) a fireman's pole from housing for the hall each year to marinating rather than hazing our new men. But one tradition had me terrified, and there was nothing I could do about it.
The hall had elected me their proctor. A proctor is really just a resident assistant for scholarship halls, only with a name phonetically closer to "proctologist." I stay up nights trying not to focus on the significance of that similarity.
Regardless, the hall has a tradition in which we throw the proctor-elect into Potter Lake and make him walk back naked. I'm a big proponent of tradition, so I was generally cool with doing it, but I did have my apprehensions.
Fortunately, they did the entire operation the way I told them. I was incredibly impressed that the people in my hall were able to carry me almost all the way to Potter. Not to say that the people in my hall are weak — picking up a five-hundred-pound guy is really impressive. But they did start grumbling that a proctor candidate's weight was going to be a larger issue in next year's selection.
For starters, this tradition was one of the reasons I almost didn't apply for the job. Let's just say there are a myriad of reasons why the world in general should be shielded from my naked body.
Furthermore, I had great concern that the guys in my hall didn't know what they were doing. It's not their fault. We didn't throw a proctor into the lake last year because we kept the same one for two years. Unfortunately, about 98 percent of the hall population came into the hall either last year or this year. That made me the only person there who had done this before. So my last couple of weeks have been spent making sure they wouldn't make me look stupid, or at least no more stupid than any other guy would look trying to cross campus naked.
The organization was simple: They take me to Potter clothed, strip me and carry me into the lake. Then I walk back totally naked while they surround me so that bystanders can see there's a naked guy, but can't make out enough detail to paint a portrait or possibly a police sketch. I feared that instead they'd strip me on the way, throw me into a two-feet deep lake and leave me standing there naked waiting for the police to arrive.
The whole event started after our hall meeting. I knew it was coming and felt OK with the idea — until the end of the meeting. I can't explain it, but as my doom approached, I suddenly panicked. I decided I was going to tempt fate and make a run for it before the meeting was totally finished, but they had prepared for that possibility. If I had tried to make a break for it, they would have tackled me before I had taken three steps to the door.
The only thing they did against my instructions was that they removed my shirt before we got to Jayhawk Boulevard. That really wasn't the kindest possible option to the rest of the world, especially since "shirtless Nick" had been called in by poison control in the past when they were having a hard time inducing vomiting.
We started our walk back but decided to take pictures on our way. We stopped in front of the Campanile and took some photos that I'm sure will be published in two seconds if I'm ever famous. We decided on the Campanile because, as one of my hallmates said, "it combines the strength and tradition of KU with the strength and tradition of Stephenson Hall." I'm just worried how the University feels about any connection between the University and my naked butt.
We made it back to 14th Street without really seeing anyone, and then I realized what I had not explicitly said: Do not invite a lot of the women's scholarship halls to be around for the naked guy's triumphant return. I walked down the hill and saw about 40 or 50 people just hanging out to watch my arrival. I found out later that people were snapping pictures of themselves because they thought they were attending a great event like Woodstock. Why anyone would voluntarily show up to see me naked is still beyond me, but I suppose freak shows are popular.
At about this time, most of the people surrounding me ran off, leaving me hanging in the wind. What else could I do? I put one hand in a fig-leaf position, waved to the crowd and walked slowly back into my hall to plot the ugliest and most vicious revenge.

Erin Rooney opinion@kansan.com
I've met a lot of people and seen a great deal, but I fear that I could have gained similar knowledge from reading books and traveling. I started college wanting to change the world and now that I'm graduating all I want is to make enough money that I can pay my bills and get along without too much worry.
To say the least, I'm very disheartened. My parents told me that college was going to be the best years of my life. In some aspects they were right. In others they were 100 percent wrong. Barely living from paycheck to paycheck, eating Ramen noodles two out of three meals a day, driving a car that someone stole the catalytic converter off of so that I smell like a bus everywhere I go, and having robbers break into my house and take the only valuable things I own — yeah, it's been a blast. On top of all this, there is some girl running around campus saying that University students need to pay for a city-wide bus system so that students at Haskell can have free busing. Hello? Where was her daddy when I needed a $50 bus pass so that I would at least have an excuse for smelling like one?
Years from now the only thing that I think I will remember about these six years are my friends and our times together. My freshman year my friends and I had a
College was where the "smart" kids went after they finished high school. My brother was smart, or at least that is what his ACT scores indicated (if they're worth anything). Instead of joining the institute of higher learning, he moved to Los Angeles, started a band and tours the country with his three best friends and a bunch of roadies. He makes a lot of money and is genuinely happy. He never stepped into a classroom and, at this rate, won't. He's made it without this system, and I think that a lot of the rest of us could have too.
College was supposed to tell me how to get along with employees whom I can't stand and how to fix my computer when it crashes so I don't have to be out of the loop for days. Now that it's over, I'm not so certain that these are the things that I learned. Three weeks from now, when I'm really a part of the corporate world, then I guess I'll know.
But the reality is that I can't. I can't take my friends with me to entertain clients. They won't be there to sign contracts or come up with new layouts and designs. This is what I needed college for — to teach me how to function as a worker.
funeral for the things that all of our exboyfriends had given to us that semester. We were in the middle of campus, digging a hole with a screwdriver, it was raining, we were wearing nothing but rain coats and underwear, and we were so loud that the cops were called on us.
It's experiences like this that give all of this formal education a sense of meaning. Heck, there are so many nights smoking cigars upstairs at Louise's or playing Frisbee in the park behind Pinckney Elementary School that make me wish I could take all of my friends with me everywhere I go in life.
I've enjoyed college, and there are a lot of memories that I would never be willing to lose. However, I think that something needs to change in the system so that college doesn't stifle people with dreams. If I hadn't come, maybe I'd still want to change the world.

City to renovate sewer system around stadium
By Jeremy M. Doherty
jdoherty@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
An engineering contract to renovate the sewers surrounding Memorial Stadium received the go-ahead from the Lawrence City Commission last night.
Commissioners voted unanimously to authorize City Manager Mike Wilden to execute a $357,986 deal with Burns & McDonnell, an engineering firm based in Kansas City, Mo.
The contract calls for a three-to four-month design process, with construction to begin immediately after designs are complete. The project will provide relief sewers for heavy rain events, said Debbie Van Saun, assistant utilities director.
"During certain rain events, like a 10-year storm, those existing sewers can become surcharged or overloaded." Van Saun said.
The renovations are part of a larger plan passed by the commission in 1995 to examine all of Lawrence's sewer and water-
treatment systems through 2020.
"This isn't happening because people are complaining." Van Saun said. "It's a plan to eliminate some problems and avoid some others."
The city and the engineering firm expect the project to be complete in early 1999. Dave Hauser, project manager for Burns & McDonnell, said work on the Memorial Stadium sewer system likely would begin as students were returning for fall classes.
Questions about traffic disruption should be answered when preliminary designs are completed this summer, Hauser said. The company will decide whether to work in underground tunnels or to cut into the surface of the streets.
Hauser said surface work would take longer than underground construction.

Panel discusses recycling options
By Graham K. Johnson
jgohnson@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
As students prepare to move out of residence halls and apartments next month, they may want to remember that one person's trash truly is another person's treasure.
Recycling that unwanted trash when moving out was the theme of the "Spring 98 Move Out — What Can I Do With All of This Stuff?" panel discussion from 11:30 a.m. to p.m. yesterday at the Kansas Union.
The panel, sponsored by the University of Kansas Office of Resource Conservation and Recycling, included representatives from city agencies and University housing groups. They discussed how departing students could donate and recycle used goods.
K. T. Walsh from the Social Service League Store, 905 Rhode Island St., said that donations to her store helped needy people, but that the environmental benefits of recycling were just as helpful.
"We're all trying to do the same thing, which is to prevent stuff from getting into the landfill," Walsh said.
Mark Bradshaw, Walnut sophore and community service
chairman for the All Scholarship Hall Council, said he attended the discussion to learn about recycling options for his residents when they move out.
Boy Yoo of Lawrence's Public Works Solid Waste Division said his staff usually saw a sharp rise in the amount of trash they collected when people moved out of residence halls and apartments, particularly in May and August.
"By the time it hits the trash heap, it's too late. We've missed the opportunity to do anything," Yoos said. "If it ends up in the trash dumpster, it goes into the landfill."
Yoos said that he had seen good furniture, clothes and even a bass boat in the landfill.
He said there were places for people to drop off appliances and hazardous household goods. He said people should call his office at 832-3632 to find out more.
Walsh urged people to donate to her thrift store or to one of the others in Lawrence. She said that stores such as the Salvation Army and the Disabled American Veterans would pick up donated items.
Victoria Silva, event organizer,
said that students needed to prepare
their donations a month or
two before they moved out.

Students combine movements into collage of forms
Performers kick off dance week

The turn of the century may bring a revolution in dance.
Joan Stone, University of Kansas instructor of music and dance, said the combination of processing current trends and looking ahead to new dance forms likely would change the dance world.
This pattern has been demonstrated in a recent project of the Environmental Choreography class called "The Body Eclectic." was performed yesterday.
Twelve students performed "The Body Eclectic," which included tap, ballet, African, modern, postmodern, jazz
and hip-hop routines. The performance was an assignment for the class and was a "living advertisement" to promote the University Dance Company's spring concerts this weekend.
Stone said that the Environmental Choreography class gave students an opportunity to try innovative ideas and to confront the challenges of new surroundings.
Pia Heinonen, Helsinki, Finland,
senior, choreographed the African
dance routine. She said that African
dance was one of her favorite styles.
"It seems very short because one thing follows another, and it's just so quick and exciting," Stone said. "Once you start looking at it, I don't think you could stop until the end."
"From the time I started teaching here, I've thought that the best way to make our program known was to get dancers dancing where people are."
"It was up to us what we wanted to show the audience and what we thought would be interesting," Heinonen said. "So, we included a lot of the different styles."
"By getting off the stage and out of the studio, you connect with the ingredients of the environment, and that should set off new ideas," Stone said.
Stone said the performance was representative of global trends in the arts and of the movement toward a fusion of different dance forms.
Joan Stone University dance instructor
"The Body Eclectic" consists of seven fragments of dance joined in one continuous procession. All pieces were choreographed and were performed by students.
"It is a dizzying collage of dance forms," Stone said.
She also said a dancer's sense of space changed in a different environment.
"When you're working in a square or rectangle, you can divide it however you want to," Stone said. "But you're going to dance differently in an outdoor environment." One important aspect of the cla-
is that it brings a new awareness of dance to the audience. Stone said.
"From the time I started teaching here, I've thought that the best way to make our program known was to get dancers dancing where people are," she said. "I come from a generation of choreographers who danced outdoors, on rooftops and on boats in the middle of lakes."
Abby Kepka, Ellsworth senior, said that the performance succeeded in capturing the attention of passers-by.
"It's a good promotion for the University Dance Company," Kepka said. "I don't think a lot of people realize that this form of entertainment is available. This promotes student involvement and awareness."

New proposal focuses on graduate students
By Susie Gura
sgura@gkansan.com
Kanson staff writer
By Susie Gura
Graduate Affairs is proposing nine new subcommittees to get more graduate students involved in University of Kansas programs and activities.
Sheryl Adelman, executive director of the Graduate and Professional Association, submitted a proposal for the creation of the graduate affairs subcommittees.
If these subcommittees are approved by the Graduate Executive Committee and GradAffairs during tonight's GradAffairs meeting at the International Room in the Kansas Union, they will be implemented next fall, Adelman said.
"It has been done in the past, and it actually gets things done across the board." Adelman said.
If GradEx and GradAffairs agree to the subcommittees, volunteers will be sought through GradAffairs meetings and memos to graduate departments.
"It gets a variety of people involved," Adelman said. "Research was done, and this is the
best way to bring in more participation."
The proposal is an effort to address the issues that face the Graduate and Professional Association. Adelman said.
She said it was necessary to appoint graduate students to specific subcommittees, which incorporate graduate student programming, academic and community needs.
"The committees were designed to provide more graduate student input into University affairs," said Gary Johnson, graduate research assistant in political science. "We believe it is going to be helpful."
The proposed new graduate affairs subcommittees are minority graduate student organization programming, graduate teaching assistant issues and experiences, graduate community events programming, financing graduate school, professional development and job search, graduate student grievance procedures/solutions, mark-up conference committee, community outreach and social service committee, and high school reciprocity/teaching opportunities for graduate students and GTAs.
Student films to hit screen
By Marcelo Vilela
mvilela@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The second annual Student Union Activities Student Film Festival will take place at 7 p.m. at Woodruff Auditorium in the Kansas Union. The festival is free.
University of Kansas students will take control of the big screen tomorrow night.
"It's an opportunity for students to show their work," said Brett Generaux, Kansas City, Kan., senior and SUA spectrum films coordinator. "It's really important for filmmakers to have their material seen."
The two-hour program will feature about 20 short movies produced by KU students.
Generaux said that students from all fields of study were welcome to enter work in the festival.
"Everyone with a film can do it." Generaux said.
He said that most of the movies were shot on 16-millimeter film and then were transferred to video. The films will feature various themes, Generaux said.
"There's one about an artist and his final work, one about Pablo Picasso's life and inspiration, an animated film about an ant who flies and a couple of documentaries," Generaux said. "It's mostly experimental films."
"There's too much timidity to show your work," he said. "You work like crazy on something, and you are afraid of criticism. But films rely on an audience and cannot be hidden away."
John Tibbett, assistant professor of theater and film, said that student festivals were commendable because they offered young filmmakers a screen to test their works.
Tibbetts said that experimenting with films in a student environment was a fundamental step before students could become polished filmmakers.
"A movie is like a play," Tibbetts said. "It doesn't come alive until there's an audience."
Heather Lusk, Wichita senior, submitted her movie for the festival. She said that her short film was a drama about relationships and that it was shot in black and white by the Kaw River.
"Festivals like this are good for the students who make movies," Lusk said. "We really don't have a big film community here, but it's good exposure for the kids who are making movies."

New impotence drug makes for happier love lives
Viagra generating interest as cure for plaguing problem
By Lisa Stevens John
john@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Impotence is a huge problem, a physician at the University of Kansas Medical Center said.
But because of Viagra, an oral medication approved by the Food and Drug Administration in March to treat impotence, there is help. Each Viagra pill costs about $10, and John Weigel, a physician at the Med Center's urology department, said he expected that the cost would drop in a couple of years.
Weigel said that since Viagra had hit the market, his office had received hundreds of phone calls from interested patients.
Ironically, Weigel said this drug originally was not intended to target impotence.
"When it first came out, it was an anti-hypertensive, used to treat high pressure," Weigel said. "Then somebody noticed that, 'Boy, things are getting a lot better around the house at night."
John Weigel
Weigel said that by itself, Viagra did not cause an erection automatically.
Physician at the Med Center urology department
"It requires stimulation," he said. "Once stimulation occurs, it simply increases the blood flow to the penis."
"When it first came out,it was an anti-hypertensive used to treat high blood pressure," Weigel said. "Then somebody noticed that, 'Boy, things are getting a lot better around the house at night.'"
Weigel said that the pill should be taken one hour before the patient plans to become sexually active. The drug is active for four to five hours and is totally out of the system in 17 hours, he said.
Minor side effects, such as flushed skin, headaches, indigestion and a change in color vision, are temporary. Weigel said.
This is a breakthrough medication in this area, Weigel said.
"Viagra is the first oral medication that really works. It works in about 70 percent of the people who take it." Weigel said.
The FDA reports that millions of men are affected by impotence.
"Typically, by the age of 40, two out of five men will have a problem with impotence," Weigel said. "By the age of 70 or so, probably 60 percent have had a problem."
Randall Rock, chief of staff at Watkins Health Center, said he was not aware of a significant number of requests for Viagra at
"The target users of Viagra would traditionally be an older population than is traditionally represented at the university level," he said.
the center.
Women also have expressed interest in Viagra, Weigel said, as some believe it also may enhance the women's sexual experiences.
Though Viagra is deemed to be relatively risk-free, Weigel said he checks for diabetes and kidney failure and does a testosterone check before he prescribes it for a male. It also is important to make
sure that the patient isn't taking another medication that would be contra-indicated, he said.
Weigel said he was concerned about a new breed of Internet machine.
Weigel said that until now, the man who used the treatments for impotence had moved from seeking help.
"In the past, lots of the cures
In the past, the cures have been pretty invasive." Weigel said. "The first thing that came along were penile implants. It's a pretty big operation. It's expensive, and there's a risk of infection and of mechanical malfunction."
Next came vacuum devices,
Weigel said.
"They were pretty numbersome. A lot of people still use them, but for the single individual, it's not going to be an option — to get all this equipment out on a date, it sort of takes the romance out of things." Weigel said.
Other aids included the injection of medications into the penis,
and tablets that were inserted into the urethra, both procedures that Weigel said could be painful.
"So with Viagra, what's happening is that people are coming out of the woodwork now who weren't interested in the more invasive things," Weigel said.
"Now on the Internet, there are some docs who, for $50, will give you a telephone interview and will call in a prescription for you." Weigel said. So people can get a prescription without ever even going to a doc. The American Medical Association has strongly come out against this Internet approach, but I don't think there's a mechanism to shut them down. Unfortunately, where there's money, there's usually a scam."
But for now, he said, the cost was worth the cure.
"If you can hold marria together and keep count together for a relatively small amount of money, it's well worth the cost," he said.

Student says shoeless existence is sensational
by liz brucks ● features@kansan.com
"I know they are asking me to leave because it is a health code violation, but my feet are clean. My feet get washed every day — people's shoes don't. They step in God only know what
— dog crap — and can come in and walk on hamburger buns, and they aren't asked to leave."

Shoeless in the rain:
Zarter cruises the sidewalk in front of the Kansas Union on a rainy day. Weather elements do not deter his barefoot stance about shoe apparel.
It's noon and Ryan Zarter shuffles in the side door of Wescoe Terrace wear corduroy cut-offs, a faded T-shirt, and headphones that rest on top of his long brown ponytail.
He is here for his daily salad and Coke, yet this day's lunch will be cut short as he is quickly asked to leave by a Wescoe employee. As always, he is shoesless and this time he gets the boot.

His preference for going shoeless stems back to the age of 12 the summer his family vacationed in Alaska. Zarter walked on the tundra for the first time and was smitten by the sensation.
"It was like walking on a big sponge," he said. "It was really soft except there were little twigs sticking out and they would pick the bottom of your feet."
His first walk on the tundra opened the door to a world to be explored with his bare feet.
Since then, Zarter's feet have encountered the cut of glass, the burn of hot concrete, the chill of snow, and many other sensations not felt through the average person's sneaker.

Zarter has even walked on hot coals, the remains of a barbecue that scattered in the grass alongside his Volkswagen bus. While unlocking the door to his bus, he felt a burning sensation on the bottom of his foot and assumed it was just "nerve burn." However, upon looking down at the ground, he noticed something was glowing and he realized he was standing on hot coals.

the physical danger of not wearing shoes is stepping on something because the foot is unprotected.
"The primary purpose of shoe gear is to act as a covering," said Lawrence podiatrist James E. Reeves. "There is a common public misconception that not wearing shoes will cause the arches of the feet to collapse or flatten. Foot type is inherited."
"Shoes will not stop a person from becoming flatfooted," he said. "If there is a tendency to become flatfooted, wearing shoes can slow the process. But in or out of a shoe, the arch will collapse in time."
"Look at the caverne," he said. "They walked around barefoot. They didn't have arch support or Nike Airs. And when it gets uncomfortable for me, I put shoes on."
Zarter is not worried about any type of long-term foot damage and notes that he is not the first to go without shoes.

"It's the rule, the company policy; they are just doing their job," he said.
"I'm stubborn, yes,
but not stupid," he said.
"I wouldn't starve to death.
If I can't get in
somewhere, I just pull
out my flip-flops and it
all works out."
With Prehistoric Times long gone, Zarter's biggest obstacle is the dreaded sign at the door: No Shirt, No Shoes, No Service. This rule and health code regulations prevent Zarter from being able to eat his lunch in Wescoe Terrace.
But Zarter will not go hungry. His simple solution is to carry his flip-flops in his backpack.
So he takes flip-flops or a spare set of shoes with him. This has created another hassle for Zarter.
These serve as shoe covering enough for Wesco employee Edward Mitchell, who asked Zarter to leave the premises when he arrived barefoot.
But Zarter is not bitter when he is asked to leave.
"It doesn't make sense," Zarter said. "I know they are asking me to leave because it is a health code violation, but my feet are clean.
My feet get washed every day — people's shoes don't. They step in God only knows
what — dog crap, and
can come in and walk
on hamburger buns,
and they aren't asked to
leave. 10166

"Whenever I get where I'm going, I take off my shoes anyway, so I end up losing shoes," he said. "I think the
Granada has a pair of my old Tevas, and the Bottle-neck may have a pair too."
Zarter receives quite a bit of attention for his bare feet, especially during the winter when people come up to him amazed that he is walking around in the snow without shoes.
He insists he does not go barefoot to get attention, but that he is simply a guy who likes to feel the world through the soles of his feet.
Although shoes tend to be a staple in the grown-up world, Zarter, who is majoring in biology, has no intention of growing up and wearing shoes on a daily basis.
"If I can get away with it, I won't wear shoes, 'cause when I'm barefoot, I'm comfortable," he explained. His mother, Carolyn Zarter of Shawnee, has a patient but hopeful stance on her son's shoelessness.
patient but upendance off her son's adolescence:
"Although it really doesn't bother me, I'd be lying if I didn't say that I hope at some point he grows out of it," she said.
His friends wear shoes but accept his decision not to. Phil Kelly, Zarter's rrommate and Chicago sophomore, explains with a smirk on his face, "To understand Ryan's practice of not wearing shoes, you've got to understand his personality. He's a really, really weird guy."

Men's golf team lands in middle of Big 12 pack
By Jason Pearce
Kansan sportswriter
The No. 31 Kansas men's golf team completed the 1998 Big 12 Championship yesterday with a sixth place finish.
The Jayhawks shot rounds of 313, 313 and 307 for a total of 933, four shots behind fifty-place Texas A&M. Oklahoma State won the championship with a three-round total of 888.
Kansas was led by sophomore Brad Davids, who finished in a tie for eighth place with his total of 227 (76-74-77). Sophomore Ryan Vermeier tied for 19th with his total of 232 (79-76-77), while senior Brad Barnett and freshman Andy Stewart tied for 37th with scores of 238
Sophomore Chris Thompson, who led the Jayhawks this season with a scoring average just under 73 strokes per round, shot a final-round score of 76 yesterday. His first and second-round scores of 81 and 83 gave him a total of 240 and a 41st place finish for the championship.
The Jayhawks now will prepare for the NCAA Central Regional scheduled for May 14 at Oak Hills Country Club in San Antonio. Kansas qualified for this tournament by finishing in the top seven in its district. Kansas is ranked fourth in District Five behind Oklahoma State, Oklahoma and Tulsa.

Portrait of a COACH
By Kevin C. Wilson
Illustration by Andrew Rohrback
"Don't mind me, I'm just in a hurry," the burly football coach of the Kansas Jayhawks explained as he turned on his shower.
H
I had just met the man moments before and here he was standing before me wearing nothing but a smile. I had found out firsthand that Terry Allen's door really is always open.
Allen was preparing to attend a ceremony at Memorial Studium after yet another spring practice.
A second-generation coach and a would-be mentor for his players, Allen's open-door policy precedes him. His door at home is open, too.
Maybe hospitality runs in his genes.
Robert Allen, Terry's father, coached the University of Iowa swimming team and was an assistant coach for the football team in the mid-1950s and throughout much of Allen's childhood.
Allen said that his father often would embrace the company of his players, even at his home in Iowa City, Iowa.
"I always remember the student athletes being at the house and I got the sense that he genuinely cared about them," Allen said. "Kids who had personal problems, problems that had nothing to do with athletics, he was there for them."
Like his father, Allen attempts to be available to his players at work, he, admits he, he spends most of his time.
Allen's accessibility policy is recognized by his players, too.
"I'm definitely here a lot more than I'm at home and I always make an effort to try to have the door open." Allen said. "I will stop anything I'm doing to be there for them."
Aneh's accessibility policy is recognized by his players, too. "He has a very open-door policy," said redshirt freshman receiver Harrison Hill. "He's really enthusiastic and likes getting people excited about winning."
And winning is one thing that Terry Allen knows well.
In his first year coaching the Jayhawks, Allen took an inexperienced team with no expectations and inspired them to a respectable 5-6 record. He seems to believe that if he can make a connection with every one of his players, he can bring his winning ways to Kansas.
He took the head coaching position at Kansas following a wildly successful eight-year run at his alma mater, Northern Iowa, where he led his Division I-AA school to a combined 75-26 record and seven straight Gateway Conference titles. He his tenure at Northern Iowa with a career winning percentage of .743, qualifying as the winningest active coach in NCAA Division I-AA.
"I want them to feel comfortable with me," Allen said. "I want them to ask me questions and confide in me. This leads to developing relationships and, as you develop relationships, success follows."
Allen strives to be a confidant, a teacher and a leader.
"I want my kids to have the opportunity to be successful."
Allen said. "The thing you want to build is the total package. I want to give my student athletes the opportunity to be successful in the classroom, on the football field, in their personal lives and in anything else they attempt to do."
Allen strives to be a confidant, a teacher and a leader.
Such
commitment leaves a coach with little
time for his family. Allen is familiar with the burden placed on himself and his wife by long periods away from home.
His father was consumed by coaching and that left his mother, Martha, with most of the child-rearing responsibilities.
"My mother was the typical coach's wife," Allen said. "She toted around us four kids because my dad was usually at the office. She was a great lady."
Allen and his wife try to make sure that the children, 2-year-old Angela and 10-month-old Chase, get to see their father every day.
"Sometimes I bring the kids to practice," Lynn said. "Our 2-year-old searches the field looking for him and when she finds him she says, 'Daddy working now,' but after practice she's usually the first one across the field to greet him."
Lynn said Allen made the most of what time he did have with his children.
"Any time they spend together is quality time," Lynn said. "And quality time is more important than quantity."

Stadium renovations on schedule for August completion

Memorial Stadium renovations remain on target for an Aug. 7 completion, said Pat Warren, assistant athletics director.
By Erin Thompson Kansan sportswriter
Phase one of the renovations is going as planned, and the project continues to be within the targeted budget.
Renovations include gutting the interior of the stadium's lower level to install a new concourse with new concession stands. Iron gates will replace the old wooden doors, and lighting around the lower level of the stadium will be enhanced.
"Everything looks good." Wang ren said. "Everything's on schedule. Everything's on budget or under. We're on budget on some things and under budget on others."
"The main thing is the new restrooms and concession
stands," Warren said. "Before the renovations, there were 52 women's restrooms. When we're done with the first phase, there will be 152 new restrooms just in the bottom level."
Renovation work should not interfere with commencement ceremonies scheduled for May 17, said Darren Cook, director of facilities and maintenance.
Commencement seating also will be rearranged because of construction. Graduates could be seated in the bowl and guests on the west side, but the University has not finalized plans.
Because of the renovations, there will be no restrooms or concession stands in the stadium for commencement. The University of Kansas has rented 170 portable toilets for the afternoon.
Phase two, which will begin after Aug. 7, includes an expanded press box. Depending
upon the bids received for the press box, other renovations, including an elevator on the east side of the stadium, are possible
Allen Field House renovations also are under way. The field house will receive new restrooms and concession stands, Warren said.
The field house also will be made more accessible to people with disabilities.
Both projects required legislative and Board of Regents approval because the stadium and the field house are on state property.
The Kansas Legislature capped renovation expenditures at $32,391,210. The renovations are being financed by bonds which will be repaid by ticket surcharges.
Public ticket prices have increased $6 per ticket. Students will pay an additional $6 for season tickets.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) - Today is a 10.
Gemini (May 21-June 21) - Today is a 5.
Let's begin so we may be ready to today.
Begin a world cruise or enroll in college. If you're quite ready to accept either of those opportunities, at least you can start preparing. A foreign friend would love to put you up. Start calling in some of those favors that you've done in past years.
You know that old line that goes, "If you are so smart, why aren't you rich?" Well, this is one day when your natural intelligence really could come through for you. You are smart, and you could be rich. This isn't going to come about by accident, though. Make it happen.
Cancer (June 22-July 22) - Today is a 9.
Neither you nor your partner will let the other get away with a thing. That's good because both of you certainly will try. Call and ask a dear but distant friend if you can come for a visit this weekend. It will be a great time to travel.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) - Today is a 4.
Have you ever considered being in business for your self? The harder you work, the richer you become – after the first few years. And since you're working hard anyway, you might as well become fabulously wealthy. Think about it.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) - Today is a 9.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) - Today is a 4.
This would be a pretty good day for you to get married.
So what if it's a Wednesday? You can have your wedding any time you feel like it. Next weekend, for example.
Besides, if you get married now, you'll be more relaxed at the party. If you already are rejoining your vows.
You have to face something repugnant, but it will turn out OK. You will be a stronger person for it. For instance, how long has it been since you cleaned out the refrigerator? Finish the job tonight, and you will feel like a million bucks.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21) - Today is a 9.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21) - Today is a 9.
People want to obey you a little more than usually today. You might as well take advantage of the situation. What is it you want to have happen in your life? Scroll down your mental list, and do as many things on it as possible, starting with the easiest.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) - Today is a 5.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) – Today is a 5.
It's time to buy something for your need. If you don't know what, just look around. Whatever you need most will become obvious. Maybe what you need is a new place? The perfect thing would be a portable environment. Shop for one tonight.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) - Today is a 9.
You're a very practical person for good reason. You have to be. You have learned the hard way. Today you can learn the easy way, too. Most Capricorns become immensely successful. If you're not there yet, you will be.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) - Today is a 5.
You're stuck between a rock and a hard place.
There's something that must be done (for legal reasons), and you don't want to do it. The good news is that this could bring more money into your account.
OK, you're doing it for the money. Stop stalling.
us.

Aries (March 21-April 19) - Today is a 6.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) - Today is a 9.
You choose your friends for their personalities. You don't care about age, weight, race or nationality.
You care about love, kindness, compassion and understanding. That's why you throw such wonderful parties. Set up another one for this weekend.
Aries (March 21-April 19) — Today is a 6.
A private matter could come to a joyous conclusion today. Making one phone call could resolve many problems. Stay tuned to the information channels, the grapevine and the Internet. An older person wants your loyalty and your attention. You might as well go along with the program — your paycheck may depend on it.

Missouri women score new basketball coach
COLUMBIA, Mo.—Cindy Stein, women's basketball coach at Emporia State for the past three years, was hired yesterday to replace longtime Missouri women's basketball coach Joanne Rutherford
Stein signed a four-year contract, Missouri athletics director Joe Castellione said.
Stein has built the Lady Hornets into a national Division II power. Emporia State had 33 straight victories last year. The team advanced to the finals of the NCAA Division II tournament, where it lost its only game to defending national champion North Dakota. 92-76.
In 1997, Emporia State was 20-10 in its first winning season since 1991.
Stein succeeds Rutherford, who won 422 games in 23 years at Mis-
弓
soori. Rutherford resigned in Feb-
ruary after the Tigers went 11-16
and finished last in the Big 12 at 3-8.
Stein's team is known for full-court defense and for an up-tempo offense.
Last year, Emporia State's 33 straight victories set a Division II record. The Lady Hornets also set a Division II record by scoring 122 points in defeating Shippensburg (Pa.) State.
The Lady Hornets set Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletics Association records, averaging 90 points a game and winning by an average margin of 27 points.
In one game, they made 34 steals and forced 50 turnovers.

Stein was an assistant at the Division I level for 10 years at Illinois, Bradley, Cincinnati, Miami of Ohio and Central Michigan.

Stein played for Illinois.
Castiglione said Stein was an excellent recruiter and teacher.
Pistons promote Gentry to permanent coach
Detroit missed the playoffs this season, finishing 16-21 under Gentry and 37-45 overall. But his players and management liked the way he handled the team.
Gentry has been interim coach for the last three months, following the Feb. 2 dismissal of Doug Collins.
AUBURN HILLS, Mich. — With the backing of stars Grant Hill and Joe Dumars, Alvin Gentry was named permanent coach of the Detroit Pistons yesterday.
"I think it's an incredible honor for me," Gentry said. "After what happened last year and the close losses we had down the stretch, I think not only am I ready, I think the players are ready to come back and to show all the close games that we lost we'll have an opportunity to win those."
The Pistons were expected to offer Gentry at least $1 million a season for two years with the option for a third, The Detroit News and the Detroit Free Press reported yesterday.
Gentry's hiring came after he met Monday with Pistons owner Bill Davidson and vice president of basketball operations Rick Sund.
Sund said that Gentry had a stronger hold on the job than the interim title implied.
"I told him you're either enough to be the coach, or you're not. . . If you're not, we're going to go in another direction." Sund said.
Dumars, who has announced he will retire after next season, said Gentry's personality meshed with the team.
"Obviously, with Grant Hill supporting me, you feel good about it regardless of the outcome," he said. "Obviously, I think it helped my cause tremendously."
"My personality's not going to change. My philosophy is not going to change," he said.
"Guy's respond to him," he said.
"Guy plays hard for him."
Gentry said he was grateful for the support of Hill and Dumars.
The Pistons played well under Gentry. Eight of the team's losses were by two points or less and four were in overtime.
Gentry, 43, said that his newfound job security would not change the way he coached.
Three years ago, Gentry finished the season as Miami's coach after the Heat fired Kevin Loughery. Gentry guided the Heat to a 15-21 record during the final 36 games of the 1994-95 season but was not offered the permanent job. He then joined the Pistons as an assistant for the 1995-96 season.
Chicago coach fired for missing playoffs
CHICAGO — Craig Hartsburg was fired as coach of the Chicago Blackhawks today after the team missed the Stanley Cup playoffs for the first time since 1969.
Hartsburg coached the team for three seasons and had two years left on his contract after signing an extension last June. His team seemed headed for the playoffs but finished with a 0-6 1-lake.
The Blackhawks were doomed by streaky play. They lost seven straight games to begin the season, tying a team record. They climbed from the early hole to reach 500 (21-21-9) on Jan. 19. However, the Blackhawks promptly lost five of their next six games.
Assistant coaches Lorne Henning and Newell Brown also were fired.
Hartsburg was hired in June 1995. His three-year record was 104-102-40, including 30-39-13 this season. Chicago was 8-8 in the playoffs during his tenure, winning one series and losing two.
"It's time for changes, and it better not be one or two changes," Hartzburg said after the 'Hawks were eliminated from the playoff race. "If I'm a change, then so be it. This team can't go on this way. It needs a total overhaul."
Chicago had trouble converting on the power play and difficulty winning on home ice at the United Center, where their record was just 14-19 in this season.
Still, even late in the season, it seemed Chicago would somehow limp into the playoffs. Then came the closing slide.

Chiefs owner bids for Royals
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Kansas City Clifs owner Lamar Hunt said yesterday that he and his family had joined with Western Resources to bid for ownership of the Kansas City Royals to assure that the baseball team will remain in Kansas City.
The deal is "something very important to mid-America — the continuity of major league baseball in Kansas City." Hunt said at a news conference.
Hunt said the bid was very serious and competitive, and he would not discuss the bid process or actual bids. "The ball is now in the Royals' court," Hunt said.
Topeka-based Western Resources CEO John Hayes described the bid with the Hunts as an effort to keep Kansas City Royals in Kansas City.
"We could not think of any better way to make that happen than to
join in this partnership with the Huntfamily," he said.
Yesterday was the deadline for preliminary bids for the American League franchise.
The purpose of the preliminary bids was to gauge the seriousness of potential buyers, said Royals spokesman Dean Davison.
Royals officials have not disclosed the number of potential bidders. However, in addition to Hunt, publicly known bidders are:
A group led by former Royals star George Brett and his brother Bobby;
— New York lawyer Miles Prentice, who owns a minor-league team.
The bids are preliminary and nonbinding, meaning they can change. A bidder also can ask for a one- or two-day extension of yesterday's deadline.
The Royals' investment banker
KG
R
Royals
J. P. Morgan & Co., was to review the bids. J.P. Morgan may ask the bidders for clarifications, particularly if the bids included contingencies and qualifiers, Davison said. The Royals screen.
ing committee, composed of three Royals directors, is scheduled to meet next week to consider the bids. Bldgers may ask to see more intensive data on the team.
After that, serious negotiations are likely with any bidders who submitted competitive bids. The Royals will ask the finalists if they will sign an agreement to keep the baseball team in Kansas City.
Royals directors will pick the new owner, who necessarily may not have submitted the highest bid but who appears most likely and most capable of running the team well and keeping it in Kansas City.
Gymnastics club members fail to land board approval
By Keith Burner
Kansan sportswriter
The University of Kansas will not have a gymnastics club this year because the club could not get on the agenda of Monday's Recreational Advisory Board meeting.
After being recommended by the KU Sports Club Council last Thursday, the club only needed the advisory board's approval to become recognized as an official club.
But after months of writing and revising its constitution, recruiting members and wading through the bureaucracy of the club-forming process, the club didn't make it onto the agenda for the board's final meeting of the year because of budget hearings.
"I'm upset," said Jenelle Diebold, Wichita junior, who would have been the club president. "We wanted everything to be finalized so we could get things rolling this summer for next year. Now, if we do something this summer and end up not getting approved; then it will all be for nothing."
Diebold said the would-be club members had planned to start looking into meets for next year and talking to coaches who might agree to help next year.
Damien Martell, Lawrence sophomore, said, "I'm disappointed." Martell would have been a member.
"We've been working hard to get into shape for competition, and
this puts a kink in our plans," he said.
The Recreational Advisory Board is comprised of Student Senate members, Sports Club Council members and members of KU Recreational Services.
The focus of Monday's meeting was the allocation of $550,000 of student fees for recreation, said Mike Walden, board chairman and former student body vice president.
"I wasn't even aware that they were trying to get onto the agenda." Walden said.
Martell said the group would keep trying.
"Hopefully we can get in next year," he said. "We need the workout time more than anything.

Chiefs fans may join the club
Arrowhead plans include possibility of private rooms
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Arrowhead Stadium could one day have club rooms where football fans willing to pay a bit more could duck in from the cold and relax with a beer.
It's only an item on a wish list right now, but that wish list is something Chiefs' owners quietly have been pressuring their landlords to make reality.
"They (the Chiefs) have mentioned that they would like to make some improvements," said John Friedmann, the executive director of the Jackson County Sports Complex Authority, which owns the Arrowhead and Kauffman stadiums.
The authority is considering $80 million to $60 million in improvements to bring neighboring Kauffman Stadium, the home of the Royals, up to par with stadiums around the country.
But while the Royals have explained their plans for improving the $13 million underground club and expanding seating behind home plate, the Chiefs are keeping quiet about the details.
"I'd rather not (discuss it until) we get a little more direction and response from the sports authority," said Chiefs President and General Manager Carl Peterson.
The ideas for upgrading Arrowhead are only for discussion with the stadium's landlord, Peterson said.
"They asked us to submit some thoughts on what we think would be amenities here that would bring this facility into the 21st century, and that's what we've done," he said.
A few items on the Chiefs' wish list have slipped out. however.
CHIEFS
Some underused maintenance closets and storage rooms could be turned into exclusive clubrooms with food and beverages, possibly on every level, Friedmann said.
There would be an additional cost, possibly graduated ticket prices. Peterson said. But storage room conversions are a possibility.
Another option would be to enclose at least part of the Club Level with glass and create an enclosed concourse out of the openair walkway, Friedmann said.
A chronic complaint at Arrowhead is the lack of restrooms, particularly women's restrooms, Friedmann said.
Figuring out how to pay for revamping Arrowhead might be the
The sports authority gets most of its $11 million budget for repairs and scheduled improvements at the two stadiums, such as the Arrowhead scoreboards, from the city, county and state. Some of that money could be rerouted to pay for improvements the teams want instead, Friedmann said.
greatest challenge. Some improvements could be bankrolled by refiguring the lease arrangement between the team and the sports authority, Peterson said.
If they do become reality, the improvements wouldn't cut into seating at Arrowhead, Friedmann said. Increasing the stadium's 79,451 seats would be most likely.
The upgrades are typical of stadiums around the country, and they are something 26-year-old Arrowhead is in need of. Friedmann said.
Some new stadiums have everything from hot tubs to brew pubs — and tickets sells for a premium.
Packers face new season, old demons
The Associated Press
GREEN BAY, Wis. — Ron Wolf can sleep again. Mike Holmgren and Reggie White are out of their funks, ready perhaps for a farewell tour together.
Brett Favre says he was downcast but never despondent about the Green Bay Packers' loss against Denver in the Super Bowl three months ago.
“As soon as it was over, I went home and kind of escaped and just started playing golf and spending time with family, and before I knew it, I'm back here at minicamp and thinking about next year,” Favre said as the Packers gathered last week for the first time since losing 31-24 to the Broncos.
"I don't think you ever get over anything like that," said Joyner, a 13-year veteran who reached the Super Bowl for the first time. "It makes you want to come back and work a lot harder, try to get back there and do it again, do it differently."
Seth Joyner doesn't, in large measure because he was with Arizona when Green Bay won the title two years ago.
"I was upset. Don't get me wrong." Favre said. "But I have a unique ability just to turn it off and turn it on when I want to."
Antonio Freeman said the loss ate at him for a month.
"All last year we felt like we were the best, but for one day the Denver Broncos were better than us, and they're crowned the champs. It's not an easy thing to accept," Freeman said. "But time is the best healer."
Holmgren gave his players extra time away in the offseason, canceling his pre-draft minicamp because in the last two seasons Green Bay had played 47 games, counting exhibitions and playoffs—the most in the NFL.
GUELPH
"I think the mood is very, very good," Holmgren said. "The guys who've been a part of the last two Super Bowls, I don't think they felt very good, as you can understand, about the last one. And so that is a big motivational factor this season, and I
could see it right away in talking to a few of the veterans." Holmgren, who said he was in a
funk through February, said he was fine now.
The Packers experienced a free agent exodus that claimed five starters, but Holmgren said he was pleased with his newcomers, particularly defensive linemen Vonnie Holliday and Jonathan Brown, the team's top two draft picks.
After selecting Holliday, Wolf said that he was finally going to get a good night's rest. His mind was even more at ease as he saw exactly what he hoped for from Holliday and Brown at the three-day minicamp that concluded Sunday.
Holliday looked right at home at defensive end after playing his entire college career at tackle. The team's hopes that Holliday could start and Brown could become part of the defensive line rotation this season seemed more realistic after the camp.
"Granted, it's just a minicamp, but I'm very pleased with those two," Holmgren said. "And Reggie White, of course, I think he's still with us. He hasn't made another announcement today, so we should be OK there."
White retired on April 19, only to retract it two days later.
This could be Holmgren's last year in Green Bay, too.
He recently had it written into his contract that he could opt out of the final year of his deal to take a dual coach/general manager job if one comes open after the season.
Great Employment Opportunity
Holmgren realizes he'll have to deal with that all year.
Retail Sales Coordinator to Coordinate Sales Activities among multiple retail locations
"I think there will probably be an undue amount of speculation. That's a good way to put it," he said. "But I am not looking. We love it here. We're moving into our new home Friday, and the focus has to be on our football team this year. I'm just not going to talk about it. Somebody else can talk about if they want to."

NBA's bruising style harms players, game
The Associated Press
SALT LAKE CITY — Every time John Stockton ventures underneath to set a pick on some behemoth, and every time Jeff Hornacek almost is decapitated by a charging center or a flying forward, Jerry Sloan feels it.
"That's the way I played in my career. I was never a big guy." Sloan, the Utah Jazz coach, said. "But I had a big-guy attitude. John has a big-guy attitude, and Jeff does, too. It's the price you pay to be successful."
There's a fine line between that big-guy attitude and plain old attitude. In the Sloan's book, taking punishment is part of the game, but shots like the one Charles Barkley took at Stockton near the end of Utah's Game 2 victory against Houston are another thing entirely.
"That's the stuff that's ruining the game of basketball," Sloan said. "It used to be that if you did something like that, you'd have to suffer the consequences. You're no longer able to solve those problems on the floor."
The Jazz and the Rockets have been down this road before. Each team accused the other of dirty play during last year's Western Conference finals, won by the Jazz in six games.
This season, the Jazz complained about the Rockets alleged cheap shots and Houston called Utah a bunch of overpaid actors who will do anything to draw a foul.
UTAH
JAZZ
None of this tough talk impresses Sloan, who, according to longtime coach Dick Motta, "played the game with more physical intensity than anyone I've ever seen."
For 10 years with the Chicago Bulls, Sloan was a scrappy, overachieving guard who became a star largely through sheer force of will. Dozens of more talented and athletic players disappeared while Sloan survived by toughness and hard work.
"I've been in a lot of fights because of that physical play," Sloan said. "There's some hard-headed people out there. That used to be the way you had to play this game."
Much of his team's style of play comes from tactics that worked for Sloan the player. Sloan's guards set picks for Karl Malone because Sloan himself set picks for Bob Love.
"Jerry always put himself on the line, and he expects us to do
the same," Hornacek said. "That's why we're out there taking on the big guys."
Sloan never considered himself a dirty player. He would take a charge, give a hard foul, scramble for a loose ball and never give an inch — but he wouldn't try to hurt anyone intentionally.
"There's some guys who played like that in their careers, but they always had to pay the consequences," Sloan said. "You'd have to take a shot somewhere down the line. If you retaliate now, it's a flagrant foul."
"There's no more of that stuff now than there used to be. It was always there, but it gets a lot more coverage now. It runs for 10 days on the sports highlights and you get eight articles about it."
Barkley's leveling of Stockton late in a game that already was decided represents the kind of tactic Sloan loathes.
"Stockton was working hard out there, and when Barkley tries to take him out, I don't know," Sloan said after the game. "So help me, I think it's ridiculous."
In years past, Sloan said, someone would have evened the score on the court. Now?
"I told the guys, the way you solve those problems is you score, and you rebound a little more. It's a different game."

Coach's door always open for players needing advice
Lynn has accepted the repercussions of being a coach's wife and understands that her husband's job is not an average 9-to-5 commitment.
Continued from page 1B
"In coaching there are really three seasons," Lynn said. "There's in the-season, when he's coaching the players; the recruiting season, when he's recruiting the players; and the summer season, when he's recruiting the fans. He does camps and goes on golf outings, all trying to get more support for the team."
Growing up a coach's son gave Allen a taste of what his life would be.
"When I was in the ninth-grade I was your basic can't-walk and -chew-gum-at the-same-time type of guy," Allen said. "I was 5-foot-3 and had size 13 feet. Talk about uncoordinated. I hadn't hit my growth spurt yet and I never got to play."
He dreamed of achieving football success and was determined to play quarterback in high school. There was only one thing in his way—his size.
All that changed the following year when Allen sprouted into a 6-foot athlete, growing more than nine inches in one year. Allen's dreams came true in his junior season when he was named the starting quarterback for Iowa City West High School and led the emerging program to 6-3 and 5-4 records in his final two years.
"The best thing that happened to me was UNI came along and offered me a scholarship," Allen said. "It got me away from home and I was able to go to school two hours away and play quarterback and do the things I wanted to do. It got me into being an adult a little bit earlier than a person who goes to school in their own community. It was a great thing to happen."
Allen's awkward adolescence blossomed into all-state accolades and paved the way for a grand opportunity.
Allen was the Panthers' starting quarterback for three seasons and although he was headed in the right direction on the football field, he was beginning to question what he wanted to do after college. He spent the first half of his college career as a pre-med student but soon felt himself drawn to coaching.
"One day I came home and told my dad that what I really wanted to do was coach," Allen said. "He said You know, you're crazy, but you probably won't enjoy anything any more."
His father's advice has proven true and Allen has impressed his players with his easygoing style and his genuine love for the game.
After tolling in former coach Glen Mason's
totalitarian regime for his first two seasons, senior offensive tackle Dan Dercher said that Allen has made the game fun again.
"I actually like going to practice now," Dercher said. "He's still tough on you, but he's always building you back up, too. He's a great guy. I couldn't be happier."
Allen's dad would be proud to hear that.
Allen still recalls the opportunity to give back to his father some of what he had given to him, when he saved his dad's life one afternoon.
"I was home from college during the summer and my father had a heart attack," Allen said. "I gave him CPR and he lived for 10 more years. You know how you go through those phases with your parents, well those 10 years were the best 10 years in our relationship."
Terry Allen's career took its biggest hit in early 1989. The evening before Allen was to be named the youngest head coach in Division I-A or I-AA at the age of 31, his father died of a heart attack.
"It was an opportunity for me to mature very quickly," Allen said. "There's a saying that you really don't become a man until you lose your father or become a father yourself. There's a lot of truth to that."
But as Allen was trying to cope with the death of his father and adjust to his new job, he made a mistake that would become what he now calls the best learning experience of his life.
Two months after ascending to the top spot at Northern Iowa, Allen was a keynote speaker at the Iowa High School Football Association convention in Jefferson, Iowa.
"I sat around with the boys and proceeded to drink too much beer and I was arrested for a DUI returning to Cedar Falls," Allen said. "At the age of 31, and having just become the head coach, and being single, and getting arrested, it was definitely a part of the maturing process. It made me wake up and smell the roses."
"In the last 10 years I haven't as much as smelled a drink and gotten behind the wheel—nor will I ever again." Allen said.
Allen said that it also helped him recognize the dangers of mixing alcohol and driving.
Allen parlayed his personal development into success on the football field. With Allen as the coach, Northern Iowa qualified for the 16-team Division I-AA playoffs in seven consecutive seasons, compiled a 48-4 record at home and a 40-7 mark in conference play. Allen coached 34 All Americans and produced four players who now are in the NFL — Bryce Paup, Kenny Shedd, James Jones and Dedric Ward.
Kansas offensive coordinator Bill Salmon worked for Allen for seven years at Northern
Iowa before following him to Lawrence. Salmon said that Allen's success is a result of his personality.
"He is just such a nice guy to work for." Salmon said. "He's very knowledgeable and he gets the most out of his players and coaches. There's a reason he here."
Allen said that he was one of the final two candidates for the Minnesota head coaching job before the Gophers unexpectedly hired Mason. This opened up the Kansas position and Allen was available.
"I didn't even know if I wanted to get involved with the KU job," Allen said. "Thank goodness I did, because of all the opportunities I've had, this is the best fit for me."
Allen said that Kansas has provided him with everything he was looking for—a Midwestern location, a large university in a small community, great academics and a well-known athletic tradition.
About the same time he came to Lawrence, Allen achieved something else he had been looking for—the chance to be a father.
"I was young to become a head coach but I was old to become a father," said Allen, who is 40. "I have two little kids now and I don't like being away from them."
Allen also doesn't like to be away from his wife. They reserve one night a week for themselves.
"Thursday night is date night," Lynn said. "We have a sister reserved for every week and it gives us a chance to just sit down and talk to each other."
Although Allen has matured, you can still see what he learned at his father's side.
"What I like most about coaching football is that I get to be around people who are 18-23 years old," Allen said. "And at 2:30 or 3:00 every day I can go out to that field with a bunch of guys who can bond together and get something accomplished.
"You have to have a belief and a plan and you have to believe that plan can be successful. If you demonstrate that you care about your players and surround yourself with quality assistants that know the game, you can be successful."
Terry Allen said that he wants his players to remember him as someone who cared, someone they liked playing for and someone who won games.
"It doesnt do any good to be a nice guy if you don't win," Allen said. "And it's not a lot of fun if you win and you're an SOB. If your players realize that they had fun and that they won, what more can you ask for?"

Commencement process nearing a close
(USPS 650-640)
Stadium renovations should not interfere with May 17 program
By Gerry Doyle
gdoyle@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
The end of the year is approaching, and the University of Kansas' administration is gearing up for one more event: commencement.
The event, which is scheduled for May 17, will involve about 4,000 students and all University faculty. Although the walk down the hill will occur May 17, the commencement activities begin May 15, said Jeff Weinberg, assistant to the chancellor.
Weinberg said the whole process took longer than it might seem — arrangements for this year's commencement began immediately after last year's.
"The planning begins in the fall and continues clear until the program begins at 2:30," he said. "It's a significant commitment for many people at every level of the University. Recent sophistica-
ations in weather forecasting have made it much easier for the committee. It's still no guarantee, but it's better than it was five years ago."
The program begins at 2:30 p.m., but if it is raining, the program will be postponed until 4:30 p.m. and then until 6:30 p.m. If rain persists, the program will be moved to 9 a.m. May 18.
Because of renovations, sections of seating that have been available in the past will be closed, Weinberg said. Commencement still will be in the stadium, he said.
Two committees plan commencement; the traditions committee, which examines the activities of the past and works to maintain those traditions; and the logistics committee, which is responsible for the nuts and bolts of the program, Weinberg said.
George McCleary, associate professor of geography and logistics committee chairman, said that beyond rearranging things for the stadium's construction, there was only one major change. Graduating seniors will be invited to Chancellor Hemenway's house for lunch the day of commencement, he said.
McCleary said the committee had to plan the process to go smoothly and quickly in a potentially adverse situation.
"We're doing this in the middle of a construction site," he said. "It's hot and hard on parents and
"We're doing this in the middle of a construction site. It's hot and hard on parents and grandparents. The critical thing is that everyone has a good time."

grandparents. The critical thing is that everyone has a good time."
There will be bus service between the Lied Center, Daisy Hill and the stadium. McClearay said.
Although preparing for commencement is a large project, the actual commencement proceedings are just another part of life, said Shawn Weber, Topeka senior.
"My dad's coming from California," he said. "I've got so many other things on my mind that it doesn't seem that important right now, like what I'm going to do after graduation."
Weber said the ceremony would be important to him because family members would be attending. However, he said commencement was getting lost when compared to other end of the year activities.

Computer savviness sheds its former 'geeky' stigma
By Aaron Knopf
aknopf@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
People who enjoyed tinkering with computers were labeled, negatively, as geeks. They were portrayed in pop culture as pocket-protector-wearing nerds.
computers is cool.
William Staples, associate professor of biology at the University of Kansas, said the cultural shift occurred because many people recognized the economic opportunities that computer knowledge provided.
All of that has changed. Using computers is cool.
"There was a kind of stigma attached to knowing about computers," Staples said. "When people see
the enormous amounts of money and power that people in the computer industry have, that changes the whole perception."
For example, take the blockbuster movie Independence Day. The entire might of the U.S. military is ineffectual against alien invaders, but a character with technical skills breaks through the aliens' defenses using a Macintosh computer.
Staples said people's increasing familiarity with computers through using computers at work also helped change attitudes. He said early computer education had helped young people grow up with the attitude that computer knowledge was desirable.
"It's chic to be geek," said Dan Simons, director of new ventures for WorldWest, L.L.C., the parent company of Geeks on Wheels.
Movies and other forms of media spread the change in perception that understanding computers is cool. Staples said.

Several computer crimes reported at University
By Laura Roddy
lroddy@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Only four months into the year, the KU Office of Public Safety has had three reported cases of computer crimes. Two cases were reported in 1997.
"The increase in computer crimes is probably a reflection of an increased availability of computers themselves and in the number of e-mail accounts," said Sgt. Chris Keary.
The public safety office and academic computing services have advice for students about how to protect their e-mail accounts and Web sites from unwanted tampering.
Wes Hubert, assistant director of Academic Computing Services, said the best advice for students was not to share e-mail passwords. "It is the only protection you have." he said.
Students also should log off after
checking their messages so that no one else can send messages from their accounts, Hubert said.
In one incident this semester, a KU student's privacy was violated when someone forwarded an e-mail message to another address. The student had forgotten to log off the server and realized the account had been tampered with when a message was returned undelivered.
"If you're using a computer in a multi-user area, then it's really important that you sign off after you're done," Keary said. "In this case, you're not protecting your property, you're protecting your access."
In another incident this semester, someone tampered with the department of civil engineering's Web site and posted pornographic pictures. The pictures were posted for about 8 hours before they were discovered and removed.
TIPS FOR AVOIDING COMPUTER CRIMES
Hubert also said students could take some precautions with their

Web sites.
"If you have a guest book on your Web page where people can leave information, you probably need to check it frequently," he said. "That is a case in which you don't have control."
Hubert recommended that students set up their guest books so that messages were not posted immediately on the site. That way students can review the contents before posting the messages, he said.
Transportation racks up funds for Saferide, buses
By Marc Sheforgen msheforgen@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
The transportation board's budget for the 1988-1999 school year has been decided, and with more money, services will be expanded.
Saferide is expected to become more user-friendly with four additional cars running each week, and an earlier starting time of 7 p.m. Sunday through Thursday. The increased hours and cars will cost $25,000 per year.
Money for the increase in services will come from a $2 increase in student transportation fees.
Scott Kaiser, new student body vice president and this year's transportation coordinator, said the additional cars probably would be implemented on Friday and Saturday nights, when the cars were
needed most because of the patrons coming from bars or parties.
The budget also made room for a pilot program that would put bike racks on five of the KU on Wheels buses.
"I would just guess that most people aren't studying on Friday night," Kaiser said.
Nicole Skalla, next year's transportation coordinator, said that by having bike racks on buses, students who did not live near a bus route could ride their bikes to where the bus would pick them up.
The increase in hours will fall on week nights because more people may need rides earlier in the evening after getting out of night classes or the library, Kaiser said.
Grey Montgomery, transportation board chairman, said that he was hesitant about the bike-rack plan and that there were a lot of
logistics to be worked out.
"We're going to have some pretty frustrated customers if they bike all the way in and can't put their bikes on the bus," he said.
Montgomery said that although the program was in the pilot stage, with only five of the buses having bike racks, students would need to be made aware of which routes would offer that service.
CORRECTION
The budget also will add one bus to the Daisy Hill route, at a cost of $26,000. Montgomery said it was important to provide a service that was not over-crowded to the students who made up the largest percentage of bus riders. He said that if those people did not have a favorable first impression of the bus system, then when they moved off campus, they might not look to the buses for their transportation needs.

Vandalism at Smith Hall prompts crime alert
The University of Kansas Office of Public Safety issued a crime alert yesterday for information regarding the $1,690-damage to Smith Hall's burning bush stained glass window.
A rock penetrated the outer storm window as well as the stained glass, bending the lead framework, between 7 p.m. April 8 and 8:30 a.m. April 9. The rock landed in the William J. Moore Reading Room.
Anyone with information about the damage can call KU Crimestoppers at 864-8888. The line is open 24 hours, and anonymity is protected. Crime Stoppers and the Friends of the Department of Religious Studies are offering an award up to $500 if information leads to the apprehension of someone involved.
The window was installed by a St. Louis company when Smith was built, during 1966 and 1967.
The statue of the kneeling Moses, which faces the burning bush window, was not added until 1982.
The burning bush scene depicts the University of Kansas seal.

Albright lays groundwork for summit with China
NATION
BEJUING — Secretary of State Madeleine Albright glossed over differences on human rights, trade and technology exports yesterday to emphasize a strategic partnership with China and set a mood for President Clinton's upcoming summit. In more than five hours of private negotiations, however, Albright extensively debated U.S. concerns with senior Chinese officials.
She will take her concerns to President Jiang Zemin and Premier Zhu Ronjit today. At a joint news conference with Foreign Minister Tang Jiaxuan, Albright said the issues were those that took place between two countries that had a lot in common.

Albright: Working toward summit with China
Having released a string of noted dissidents. China still holds
some 2,000 political prisoners, by U.S. estimate, and the Clinton administration is shifting its strategy to push for wholesale releases, a senior U.S. official said after Albright's three-hour meeting with Tang and a two-hour dinner conversation with Vice Premier Qian Oichen.
On the other hand, Albright found the Chinese sharing U.S. determination to keep the Korean peninsula free of nuclear weapons, eager to maintain peace in the oil-rich Persian Gulf and not challenging the huge U.S. military presence in the Pacific, said a U.S. official, speaking on condition of anonymity.
Divided Supreme Court criticizes execution delays
WASHINGTON — Citing a powerful and legitimate interest in punishing the guilty, the Supreme Court signaled growing frustration yesterday about delays in executing the nation's more than 3,000 death row inmates
Though the court was deeply divided, the five-justice majority spoke sternly in criticizing the postponement of a California murderer's execution last year. The justices ruled that the San Francisco-based 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals was guilty of a "grave abuse of discretion" when it spared Thomas Thompson's life two days before he was to die.
The appeals court blocked Thompson's execution by recalling, or pulling back, its previous rejection of one in a long line of appeals by the convicted murderer and rapist.
Justice David H. Souter, writing for the four dissenters, said the court was solving a problem that did not exist.
Writing for the highest court yesterday, Justice Anthony M. Kennedy said the court had cheated the state and the victims of crime.
"Only with real finality can the victims of crime move forward knowing the moral judgment will be carried out," said Kennedy. He once served on the 9th Circuit court that presides over disputes from nine Western states.

European Union members approve pollution treaty
UNITED NATIONS — European Union nations signed an international treaty yesterday to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and called on the United States and developing countries to do the same.
"There were a few other countries which we would have liked to sign with us here today, especially a big one," the European environment commissioner, Ritt Bjerregaard said. "And I hope to see the United States signing as early as possible."
Britain's deputy prime minister, John Prescott, said the signing by the 15 EU members clearly signaled the members' commitment to the objectives the union agreed upon under the resulting environmental benefits.
Japan signed the treaty here Tuesday, becoming the first major industrial nation to do so.
The global warming treaty, approved last December in Kyoto, Japan, would require 38 industrialized nations to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions from 1990 levels between the years 2008 and 2012.
European Union states would reduce them by 8 percent, the United States by 7 percent and Japan by 6 percent. Some would face smaller reductions, and a few would not be obligated for now.
Developing countries, including major greenhouse gas emitters such as China and India, are asked to set voluntary reduction targets.
The U.S. Senate, which must approve the treaty, has called on President Clinton not to sign and Congress not to ratify the agreement unless pollution restrictions are extended to developing countries.
Students in Zimbabwe protest country's leader
HARARE, Zimbabwe — To the cheers of onlookers, thousands of students took to the streets yesterday to call for an end to Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe's 18 years in power.
The protest was the biggest yet against 74-year-old Mugabe, the nation's only leader since independence in 1980. The students marched from their campus to downtown Harare after a High Court judge ordered police to allow the protest. Last week, police prevented students from leaving the campus.
"Mugabe, you are irrelevant. Go and rest, old man," read one banner. About 5,000 students chanted "Mugabe, he must go!" in the local Shona language.
Mugabe, who led the transition from the white minority-dominated state of Rhodesia to Zimbabwe in 1980, has faced mounting opposition in recent months over the nation's growing economic problems.
Yesterday's march brought downtown Harare to a standstill for more than two hours. Office workers waved from their windows, onlookers cheered and drivers honked their horns in support. There were no reports of violence.
Few protests have been allowed to reach the city center and onlookers have been fearful of showing support in the past.
But in recent weeks, there has been spontaneous support for the students, said the Rev. Sebastian Bakare, a university chaplain and human rights monitor.
Six people died in food riots in January after prices soared by more than 30 percent.

Computers move from geek to chic
Continued from page 1A
lems. Simons said people who knew how to work with computers were in such great demand that some companies were paying signing bonuses to the people recruited to work in computer fields.
"They're laughing all the way to the bank," Simons said.
Geeks on Wheels has turned the pejorative term "geek," often used in the past to describe people who enjoy working with computers, into a positive symbol.
"It's a lighthearted way of saying we'll roll smart guys and gals to your house to fix the problems." Simons said.
Simons said that being a geek was no longer a bad thing because possessing computer knowledge was desirable.
Several University students also said recreational computing did not have a stigma.
Barr said that she did not use computers for activities such as surfing the Internet but that her friends and family did.
Eric Ebeling, St. Charles, Mo., sophomore said he used the Internet for fun about once a week while on campus.
"I don't use it a lot for homework or school." Ebeling said.
Ebeling said he did not think that people who used computers for fun were frowned upon. He said several of his friends had their own Web pages.
Not everyone agrees that computers have become as accepted in America as apple pie.
Spencer Reiss, senior editor at Wired magazine, said computers had penetrated only about 40 percent of American households. He said computers still had a long way to go before being accepted as widely as televisions, which penetrate more than 90 percent of American homes.
There are a lot of people who care about what is trendy. Reiss said,
what is really worse?
He said, however, that the perception about using computers had changed during the past few years.
"It's cooler than it was," Reiss said. "It's not a gibbery thing any more."

The Lazer rocks, Rolling Stone says
Local station receives honor for 'taking risks'
ey lamara Mutter
miller@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
The Lazer was selected as one of the "Ten Stations That Don't Suck," in the April 30 issue of Rolling Stone Magazine.
Lawrence radio station KLZR. 105.9 The Lazer, received a surprise honor earlier this month.
The article explored the dominance that corporations
have on radio-station programming. The Lazer was praised for its variety and its persistence to remain a modern-rock station.
Hank Booth, general manager of the station, said The Lazer was a family owned operation, which allowed more freedom in music selection. He said The Lazer was willing to take risks, such as playing songs that were not as familiar to the listening audience.
"We want to be cutting edge, and we feel that we are," he said. "We played Chumbawamba three years ago, now look at it."
Booth said that the playlist was selected by Roger T.
"The ones (radio stations) that aim at the cookie-cutter approach are always looking at the bottom line,"
Dodger, programming director; Don Oborne, music director; and Jeff Petterson, the host of the local music show on Sunday nights.
Booth said a large corporation sometimes chose the programming for its radio stations, and this could
alienate listeners.
"I don't try to dictate the playlist," he said. "I'm 51 years old. If I played what I liked, we'd lose our audience."
"It always plays good music," she said. "It plays a lot of alternative and some rock."
Kelsi Ricke, Wellington freshman, said she frequently listened to The Lazer. She did not know the station was mentioned in Rolling Stone magazine.
Booth said the station would continue to keep their programming fresh. He said that because the station was in a college town, the playlist could explore different
venues, such as local music, and still be profitable. Other radio stations cannot afford to take those risks, he said.
"The ones that aim at the cookie-cutter approach are always looking at the bottom line," he said.
Katy Porman, Davenport, Ohio, sophomore, said she liked to listen to The Lazer because other stations tended to overplay songs.
"The Lazer does, too," she said. "But they also play a lot of variety."
Booth said the station aimed to satisfy an 18- to 24-year-old audience. However, sometimes the music appeals to an older crowd, too.
"I even listen to The Lazer," he said.
KU retirees honored at annual dinner
THE BEST MEMBERSHIP IS AT THIS FUNERAL. AWARD NAMED FOR THE EXCELLENCE OF ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY. MAY 20, 1985
By Emily C. Forsyth etorsyth @kansan.com Kansan staff writer
The University bid farewell to 36 dedicated employees last night at the annual retirement dinner for faculty and unclassified staff.
More than 400 people attended the dinner in the Kansas Union Ballroom. The event honors faculty and staff who are retiring or have retired this academic year.
The honorees were guests of Chancellor Robert Hemenway. Others who attended paid $15 per ticket.
"I know so many people here," Henry said. "After that many years, you're bound to."

"People come together as an academic community because they believe in the idea of the University," Hemenwav said.
Hemenway praised retirees' dedication to improving the world through their work at the University.
"It's nice to be a guest," she said.
Jane Johnson, secretary to the chancellor, retired last month after 26 years of service at the University. She said she had helped organize the annual dinner for many years.
Other retirees said they had not slowed down after leaving the University.
Johnson said she planned to use her spare time to visit her children and take a break.
"I retired in the spring because the golfing season is starting," she said. "I'm going to take the summer to relax."
Joseph Collins, herpetologist and faculty emeritus, said that he had just finished publishing his 21st book, a guide to reptiles and amphibians. Collins said he planned to continue working on projects and travelling
"It's far busier than I had ever anticipated, but I love it," Collins said. "I feel like I have a couple more decades of professional productivity in me."
The retirement dinner was sponsored by the chancellor's office and the Endowment Association. A grant made by Walter Bohnstengel, 1910 KU mechanical engineering graduate, helps finance the event.

Crimestoppers may give caller $1,000 for tips in murder case
By Rannie Wachter
rwachter@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
A Lawrence resident may be rewarded as much as $1,000 today for tipping off CrimeStoppers in August.
Lawrence police officer Tom Moore, CrimeStoppers coordinator, said the individual gave information that led to the arrest last week of Deon Hale, the suspect in the 1997 murder of Robert Baldwin, Lawrence resident.
Baldwin was found dead July 23, 1997, underneath an I-70 overpass in northeast Douglas County, Sheriff Loren C. Anderson said. A coroner's report showed that he died of a gunshot wound to the head.
Anderson said that Hale became a suspect in the case in August and that he was arrested April 17 in North Dakota, partly because of the caller's tip.
"We had been looking at this individual on and off for several months," Anderson said. "We had to hold off while investigators gathered the information we needed to make an arrest."
Moore said the arrest was made possible because of the informant's call.
"This caller provided valuable information that helped investigators build their case," Moore said. "It's anticipated that the board will pay the largest reward in its history."
Moore said the record for a reward by the board was $500, presented earlier this year to an individual for information given in a 1997 kidnapping and aggravated burglary case. The maximum reward the Douglas County CrimeStoppers board may present is $1,000, he said. He said the individual had requested anonymity.
"We don't even tell the investigators the sex of the caller," he said.
Moore said that although he could not specify the nature of the information given, the amount of the reward being considered showed that the tip was vital.
"We use a reward-determination sheet that balances how valuable the information is with how much the caller gets." Moore said. "The more you get out of it, the more it goes up."
Moore said that the CrimeStoppers board, which was created in November 1994, included 18 local business people, administrators from area schools and a handful of University of Kansas profes-
He said members of the board preferred to remain anonymous for safety reasons.
"If we publish too much, then we blow the program," Moore said. "We don't want the people on the board to be worrying about being followed or watched."
He said he could not disclose how the informant would gain access to the reward if the person was given one.
Moore also said he was not certain it the individual would be given the maximum reward but that he thought the caller deserved it.
"I know I'm going to ask for $1,000," he said.

Fraternities should rethink hazing initiation; consider pledges' safety
When a high school senior signs with a fraternity, he does not do so as a death wish. Blinded by the glamour that is brotherhood, many join without realizing the severity of the hazing rituals they might encounter.
Fraternities should tone down their hazing rituals or remove them altogether to ensure that incoming freshman have a good beginning to their college experience. Fraternities have a responsibility to keep pledges 'first weeks at college free from alcohol-induced sickness or trips to the hospital.
But this is not always done, both at the University of Kansas and elsewhere.
Earnest L. Harris, a member of the Kansas State chapter of Kappa Alpha Psi, recently was beaten so badly during his initiation that he now has permanent kidney damage. This and other barbaric rituals that often accompany fraternity life constitute hazing and should not be tolerated.
Prospective members of the greek community should focus on finding the environment that coincides with their academic and personal goals.
Instead, a typical day for pledges in some fraternities often is filled with mandated chores and alcohol consumption. In many cases, the older members of the chapter force the pledges, often functioning on only a few hours of sleep, to drink excessively and perform grueling tasks. At the University this has left some pledges in the hospital and others sick with exhaustion.
Brotherhood is a sacred entity often defamed by the violence and barbarism of fraternity rituals. Some members argue that it brings the pledge classes
closer together, forcing them to depend on one another in surviving the wrath of the upperclassmen.
However, what happens to the bond of brotherhood when students die, like at the Louisiana State University chapter of Sigma Alpha Epsilon? The upper-classmen unwittingly forced a freshman pledge to drink so much that he died from complications caused by alcohol poisoning. Such a tragedy does not strengthen brotherhood — it breaks the fraternity apart, causing guilt, blame, lawsuits and disbandment.
As fraternities prepare for next year's new members, they should remember that the incoming freshmen are the foundation for the future of each chapter. Fraternities should make KU freshmen's first experiences positive ones and preserve the integrity of the greek system.

Education enhanced by community service
Encouraging more professors to have community service as a part of their curriculum would help build stronger on-campus and off-campus communities. It also would create stronger leaders and better students.
Just the mention of a community service as a requirement for graduation is enough to scare many students. And it is not that they aren't interested in volunteering in their community. Adding yet another requirement for graduation is simply hard to swallow. A good medium between the idea of having a community service requirement and doing nothing at all is to incorporate a volunteer program into the existing curricula.
Of course, there are advantages and disadvantages to a volunteer requirement. People interested in seeing more
students take an active part in their community believe that students will become interested in serving their community after they've been exposed to it. Others think that forcing a student to volunteer in the community almost destroys the whole purpose. Both arguments make sense, but neither helps to create a solution that the community, students and the University can live with. Having more professors implement community service into their classes does.
nity today. He also said that putting students in a situation to volunteer would help them to develop certain life skills and leadership traits that a classroom setting is incapable of replicating.
Quite a few classes already do this. A leadership course taught by Sherwood Thompson, director of the Office of Minority Affairs, requires such a practicum. Thompson said that to build strong leaders for tomorrow, we must teach them the importance of commu-
Jamie Najim, co-director for the Center for Community Outreach, is in favor of a community service requirement. She also thinks that having a special tassel or diploma for students who complete a certain amount of community service while in school would be a positive incentive for students to become more involved.
The message to professors and students alike is clear. Community service promotes unity in the community, builds stronger leaders and creates better students. And adding a volunteer requirement to classes is one of the best ways to accomplish this.

Perspective
Graduate school is best option to delay work
Each year the University of Kansas graduates about 5,000 people. Most are talented enough to get jobs. Some of them are intelligent enough to get advanced degrees. The
dilemma is deciding which is the next logical step in the life process. This choice hinges on one factor: happiness. Either path is merely a venue for self-discovery. However, that doesn't make the decision any easier.
When students are finishing their undergraduate degrees, many are still searching for their niche in life.
P
Chris Bulgen
opinion@kansan.com
Some students are sick of school, and they want their own incomes. Some of these
students have the credentials to go on for an advanced degree, but they simply don't want to. However, there are those who don't know exactly what they want to do professionally.
This makes a graduate degree the perfect delaying mechanism. Those students who want more education can beef up their resumes with an extra degree and avoid the rigors of a 9-to-5 existence. Let's face it, college is a charmed life. Students can set their own hours, work for themselves and go out every night. Not that Id know.
Students seek advanced degrees for varying reasons. Many students with undergraduate degrees decide they simply need more education. Derek Prater, University of Kansas graduate, lived and worked in New York City for a year before he decided that he wanted a master's degree in journalism. Tim Lebestky, KU alumnus, incarcerated himself in UCLA's five-year doctorate program in genetics directly after graduation. Some graduates need a work experience to decide exactly what they want out of life, and others don't.
Graduates who are considering entering the work force gain insights from those returning to the academic environment. Some of them hate their jobs or their co-workers. But beyond the notion of being happy in the work place, students must believe that they are educated and skilled enough for their jobs.
There is a notion that an advanced degree will provide an advantage in the work force. Opinions vary, but it really can't hurt. Odds are that a person with a master's degree will still have to gain experience through trench work in an entry-level position. However, an advanced degree could allow a person to start higher on the corporate ladder or the salary scale. This obviously varies from vocation to vocation. I probably won't have a mansion and a yacht next year, but an engineer might make better money with an advanced degree. Furthermore, it may help some people get jobs they enjoy, which are few and far between.
Going back for an advanced degree, gives many
students the chance to acquire more marketable skills. Brian Stebbins, KU graduate, is headed to the South Carolina University for a master's degree in business administration. He thinks that his breadth of experience will give him more control and creativity in future vocations. There are those graduates who discover themselves outside of college and advanced degree work.
Matt LaPoint, KU graduate, earned a communications degree. He is now pursuing a career in writing, producing and performing music. He says that after college he was able to develop his life views through readings in philosophy and religion. These subjects just weren't a large part of his undergraduate curriculum, yet self discovery can be gained from on-the-job experience.
Completing the grunt work early allows graduates to acquire more marketable skills. These skills are a byproduct of experience — a necessity for any resume. Time and experience helps people get enjoyable jobs that pay well.
Some people don't know what they want out of life right away. Working for a couple of years might help them find a degree that takes them where they want to go. The only drawback is that it may be very difficult to re-enter the academic environment after earning a salary. Earning a good salary allows people to do things they can't do as a student. For some, buying a home or getting married may outweigh an advanced degree.
Furthermore, some of these people disliked or were bored by their undergraduate studies. We all make mistakes. If people are not interested in the jobs their undergraduate work prepared them for, this doesn't bode well for the work place.
I'm simply here to look at why people go back to school or enter the work force. I certainly wouldn't tell anyone that going back to school is a necessity, because it isn't. However, it is worth noting that the only person I can think of who has succeeded with a single degree is my buddy Matt Parr who earned a degree in economics from Princeton and is now an investment banker.
People work or stay in school for personal reasons. However, I'm not going to stay on the fence here. For me, graduate school was the optimal choice.
I'm finishing a master's degree in journalism. In the last two years, I've done a lot of growing up. I'm sure that getting a job would have contributed to this maturation process. Staying in school was perfect for me because I was able to play some good music, stay in my hometown and acquire an advanced degree. Now I feel that I am ready to join the drone colony that is America's work force.
Your niche in life may be found in graduate school, or it may be found on a mountain top in Tibet. This is what life is—picking the appropriate path. The bottom line is that you have to know yourself and what makes you happy.

Well I think about it. I use to wonder what was wrong with me. Now I know it isn't that has the problem. I wonder what is wrong with the University of Kansas where no one has the "desire" to sit next to me. What is wrong with the person who doesn't feel like sitting down right next to me. Now I wonder what is wrong with you, not me.
perhaps you just didn't want to sit next to that African American. Maybe you are one of the many people who don't even think about it. You just didn't have the desire to sit down.

I am challenging every bus rider to consider the seating choices that they make, no matter how silly that sounds. I see and feel it every time that a seat is left open by me on a bus. That seat talks to me and tells me that I am not wanted. Consider that the next time you pass up a seat next to me on the bus. Consider what message you are sending consciously or subconsciously.
It is the little things that matter. Some times the things that are done without thought are the most dangerous. Those things, the unnoticed and blind racism, make much larger acts of discrimination and racism more difficult to fight in society. Next time it is raining and the bus driver won't let you on the bus, rest assured you can fit. The seat next to me is always open.

I am not arguing that everyone that rides the bus is a racist. Or that all people deliberately sit everywhere except next to me. I am however alarmed by my experiences.

Two times the bus was completely full, the other two it was not. I always sat in the first row or the handicap seats. The on time that someone sat next to me he asked if it was OK first, and then proclaimed that he wouldn't sit too close. He said he didn't want to make me feel uncomfortable, the way people sometimes do on the bus. Make me feel uncomfortable? I could only laugh.

Golf tournament helped charities
The Swingers Golf Tournament was an excellent way to spend a Saturday morning. The scramble was sponsored by the KU Credit Union and The University Daily Kansan to raise money for charity. With just a $5 entry fee, each player received a sleeve of Top Flite titanium golf balls with both sponsors' logos on each ball, a Kelly Services
mug and a towel also with the logos on it. In addition, at two different holes on the course they handed out free frisbees and bumper stickers.
After the players were done with their nine-hole round at the Orchards, they also received free and unlimited hot dogs, chips and pop. The two teams with the best scores received $500 to give to their favorite charity.
It was a fun time with
everyone laughing and enjoying themselves, and it was for a worthwhile cause.
I believe there should be more events like this to provide for charities around town. I know I don't always remember or know about some of the charities in Lawrence, so playing in this golf tournament meant a little more to me than just having a good time.

Senate committees pick leaders
New chairpersons crossed coalition lines in elections
By Melissa Ngo
mngo@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer
Student Senate committees crossed coalition lines while electing chairpersons, vice-chairpersons and members of the Judicial Board selection committee last night.
Jason Thompson, Hutchinson sophomore, and Ben Walker, Hutchinson freshman, ran together and were elected to the positions of student rights chairman and vice-chairman, respectively, even though they ran on opposite coalitions during the Student Senate elections.
"Ben and I working together shows that there doesn't have to be partisan squabbling that means nothing will get done," said Thompson, who ran with the
Delta Force coalition.
---
Walker, who ran with Campus Cause, agreed.
Walker: Working together is gesture of cooperation
"Jason and I run n ing together is a really good gesture of cooperation for the coalitions," Walker said. "It will help for people
to see that the coalitions can work together toward the same goals."
Keena McClendon, Grandview, Mo., junior, and Emily Heath, Oskaloosa senior, were elected to be the multicultural affairs chairwoman and vice-chairwoman, respectively.
Luke Pfannentstel, Hutchinson sophomore, and Aaron Proffit,
Overland Park freshman, won the University affairs chairman and vice-chairman positions, respectively.
Pfannenstiel said he wanted to increase the committee's unity
and knowledge next year.
"I want to start a committee listserv to allow the members to have more information about upcoming legislation." Pfannenstiel said. "There are lots of exciting possibilities for
thompson: Wants to achieve goals without squabbling
University affairs next year and I want help with that by increasing student involvement."
Dede Seibel, McPherson sophmore, and Tara Kelly, Overland Park freshman, are the new finance committee chairwoman and vice-rushwoman, respectively. Eric Rush, Topeka freshman, was elected to be the new Finance committee secretary.
"One of the things that I'm thinking of doing is writing legislation to allow committee members to help sponsor bills so that they (the members) can understand more
about the process," Seibel said. "I also want to educate the organizations that come to us for money so that they can know what to expect from us and what we expect from them."
The graduate affairs committee chose only a chairman. Partha Mazumdar, Pittsburgh, Pa., graduate student who was chosen as chairman, is also next year's executive director for the graduate professional association.
"One of the things I want to work on is to clarify whether GTAs are employees or students, especially in regard to intellectual property rights," he said.
Judicial Board selection committee members will be Rochelle Votaw, Lawrence senior; Mike Kaufman, McPherson junior; Sarah Yannaccone, Sterling freshman and Joe Walberg, Shawnee freshman.
In the fall, the selection committee will choose the members of the first Judicial Board. The board will hear complaints concerning Student Senate, Senate committees, elections and student organizations.
City commission to decide budget
By Jeremy M. Doherty

Though summer vacation soon will arrive for students, the members of the Lawrence City Commission will receive no such rest between Mav and August.
KU students plan to voice concerns about bike lanes at summer hearing
The commission has schedulstudy sessions for June 24 and July8 at City Hall, 6 E. Sixth St, to discuss spending priorities. A third session tentatively has been scheduled to occur in early August, but City Manager Mike Wildgen said no exact date had been scheduled.
In addition to the usual rezoning and policy-making issues, the commission will have to spend time mapping out Lawrence's fiscal budget for 1999. The commission must file the completed budget with the Douglas County Clerk this August.
"We haven't even started talking about that yet," Wilden said. "I'm not prepared to talk about how big it's going to be."
Last year, the commission passed a budget of about $72 million. Wilden said that he could not estimate if that figure would rise or fall this year.
Each two-hour study session will be open to the public, but citizens only will be able to offer their ideas and spending suggestions at the third session. Wildgen said the commission chiefly relied upon information from previous budgets when making spending decisions.
"They tend to be a very quick study." Wildgen said.
The commission also will consider financing an engineering study for downtown bicycle lanes at the summer budget sessions.
"We'll try to get them to set aside money from road maintenance. That way, the coordinator won't have to wait another year to spend money."

CLO offers assistance to disabled
By Carl Kaminski

Kansan staff writer
Students looking to make an impact on someone's life may find what they are looking for at Community Living Opportunities.
The group was established in Overland Park in 1977 by a group of concerned parents who wanted local residential services for their sons and daughters with developmental disabilities, said Arthur Chiu, director of community living opportunities, 2113 Delaware St. The parents wanted an alternative to institutionalization, he said.
with the organization after graduation.
The group's employees help 288 people with developmental disabilities in Lawrence and Overland Park learn social and living skills. The organization takes care of individuals in seven group homes in Lawrence, as well as several apartments and duplexes.
He said he wanted open-minded students who were interested in making a social impact.
Many of the people who the group works with live in areas heavily populated with University students, Chiu said.
Chiu said the majority of the group's staff in Lawrence were KU students, and that many of them, including himself, worked
"We've found that diverse talent from many different majors helped complete our mission," Chiu said.
"If I need to, I can take a week off and work more the next one," she said.
Annessa Staab, Lee's Summit, Mo., junior, found out about the group through cheerleading at the University. Staab said the group had offered a great opportunity, and working there had fit into her hectic schedule.
first arrived at the group home, she just sat on a couch all day, Staab said.
Staab is a substitute teaching counselor for the group. She works with the men and women at the center with projects such as art therapy and the Green Thumb Project, in which the developmentally disabled take care of plants in offices throughout Lawrence.
Today, Elaine is friendly and ventures out in the community with the seven other people she lives with, Staab said. Elaine greets friends with hugs and kisses, she said.
"Sometimes, it's really frustrating," she said. "They're adults, and they are set in their ways."
Chiu said a majority of the men and women came from institutional settings and signs of neglect often were visible.

One of the ways the center helps is through the art therapy program. Jamie Dawson, director of art therapy, said the goal of the program was to create as much art as possible.
"We always have people saying that it can't be possible," she said.
Dawson said despite the artists' disabilities, they still created amazing products.
Much of the artwork created in the program is displayed at the Riverfront Mall and in shows around Lawrence, she said.
The next two shows will take place May 2 at Big Brothers and Big Sisters, 733 Massachusetts St., and May 10 at Wheatfields Bakerv, 949 Vermont St.
With patience come rewards, Staab said.
"You get to see different sides of the men and women," she said. "They react a lot in the same ways as we do, they just may not be able to communicate in the same way."
Staab said one of the rewarding aspects of her job was taking the men and women out into the community.
The community responds warmly to the men and women, Staab said. No one has said anything negative, she said. It is good for the people in the community
to see that the men and women are just the same as everyone else, she said.
Students interested in working with the group can call Chiu at the Lawrence office, 2113 Delaware St., at 865-5520 or the Overland Park office at (913) 341-9316.
Land grants ease property owners' worries
By Graham K. Johnson
Kansan staff writer
When Greg and Jill Allen sold their 160 acre spread in southwest Douglas county last summer, they handed it over not only to the highest bidder but also to future generations.
The Allens ensured that the land would be protected from over development by obtaining a conservation easement. The easement is a legal amendment to the deed, which restricts the land's uses. The Allens worked with the Kansas Land Trust, a Lawrence-based, land-preservation, nonprofit organization to obtain and monitor the easement. The Allens' easement is one of four in the state.
Jill Allen, a 1979 KU graduate, said they wanted to protect the land as open space for the community to enjoy in the future and for the land's sake itself.
"We just wanted to see the land stay like
it was," Allen said.
The trust was founded in 1990 to promote land preservation and conservation throughout Kansas by way of land purchase, donation and easements, said Laurie Ward, executive director.
PENGUIN
Ward said most of the trust's activities involved easements, which were volun-
Allen: Easement will keep developers away from land
ary agreements to give up certain land rights such as construction or farming.
When the property changes ownership, the land restrictions remain, she said.
Ward said the main reason people sought easements was because of environmental concerns.
"People just know that we need more open space on the earth," she said.
Greg Allen agreed. He said he was alarmed by the development growth in Douglas County and wanted to save the land, which is close to his heart. The Allens eventually sold their land with the restriction that new structures could be built only on already developed portions of the land.
The Kansas Land Trust is a member of the Land Trust Alliance, a Washington, D.C.-based support group for land trust in the United States. Martha Nudel, communications director for the alliance, said that even though owners lose value on their property, there were tax benefits to donating land and to conservation easements.
"It can lower your income taxes and your estate taxes, and it can also affect your property taxes," Nudel said.
Nudel said the first conservation easement was made in the 1880s to protect parkways in Boston. But it was not until the Tax Reform Act of 1976, which formally
recognized easements, that the movement really took off. As of 1994, there were 1,095 land trusts in the United States, protecting four million acres of land. Nudel said.
Ward said that even though the trust was the only one in Kansas and that the movement in Kansas took a while to get going, she was getting more interest and offers every day. Ward said several KU professors had talked with her about granting easements on their land.
But not all members of the trust are land owners with easements. Most, such as Elizabeth Schultz, are just citizens concerned about the environment.
Schultz, professor of English, said that although the only property she owned was a house in Lawrence, she wanted to help make sure open green space was preserved in the community.
"My life is enhanced and enriched by being able to visit natural sites in the state and throughout the world," Schultz said.

Alternative magazine adds Lawrence

The Lawrence gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgendered community gained a new voice in Lawrence this month.
"The goal is to provide more news and features from the Lawrence community," said Rob MacRae-McKie, Lawrence resident and manager of the Lawrence office. "One of our primary focuses is campus events, but we want people from the community to be aware that they can

contact us when something is going on."
"The magazine had always been distributed in the Lawrence community, but we didn't have enough people available in Lawrence to establish a presence," MacRae-McKie said. "We try to get community involvement and community news."
MacRae-McKie said that when several people from Lawrence started contributing articles to the Liberty Press it added to the magazine's process of creating a better distribution and advertising strategy.
MacRae McKie said he was concentrating more on article writing because he was resigning as office coordinator to move abroad. Kevin King, Topeka senior, Queers and Allies publicity director and the magazine's Northeast regional account executive, will fill the position.
This month's issue was the first to include the Lawrence queer community. It had the Pride Week events on the cover and articles about campus issues.
The next edition of the Liberty Press will feature the activities of Pride Week in the Lawrence section, MacRae-McKie said.
"Any type of queer business is a good idea," Shay said. "It helps the city to become more multicultural. There are never enough voices out there for our community, and we need publications that have different points of view."
Katie Shay, Lawrence freshman and Queers and Allies president, said the more queer publications there were in town, the better because the publication portrays the community's diversity.
Free issues of the Liberty Press can be found in the Queers and Allies office, 423 Kansas Union, and in local stores such as Arizona Trading Co., Teller's, Vibes and Paradise Cafe.
Symposium will examine Latino culture
By Lisa Stevens John
jlohn@kansan.com
Kansas staff writer.
The Hall Center for Humanities and the University of Kansas will sponsor "Latino/a Symposium" today, tomorrow and Saturday.
On Saturday, there will be four panel discussions and a reception with art exhibitions by Rocha Familia Art and music by Trio Atzlan.
Planned activities include a lecture tonight by Cherrie Moraga, Hispanic feminist writer, poet and teacher from San Francisco. Tomorrow afternoon's activities begin with an address by Chancellor Robert Hemenway, followed by a presentation and a panel discussion.
"This is the fifth annual symposium held at the University, and it's the first time that we've done a symposium on Latino topics," said Janet Crow, executive director of the Hall Center for the Humanities. "This program stems from an annual spring symposium held to reach out to the general community, even beyond the University."
The program was coordinated by Juan Velasco, associate professor of American studies, and John Augusto, associate director of the graduate school.
Velasco said 1998 was symbolic because it was the 100th anniversary of the Spanish-American War and the Treaty of Paris.
"It symbolized a moment when Hispanic and the Latino population became part of the United States, especially in thinking about Mexican-Americans, Puerto Ricans and Cuban-Americans." Velasco said.
Velasco described the symposium as a way of revisiting the past.
"It's also a way of re-evaluating the present and looking at the future, especially keeping in mind that we're basically at the end of the millennium and the 21st century is approaching," Velasco said. "We look at how we can improve the interrelationships between Hispanics, whites and African Americans, not only from an ethnic point of view but also in terms of gender and multiculturalism."
Crow said the symposiums were designed to be as user friendly as possible so everyone would feel welcome.
"The programs have a lot of intellectual content, but you don't have to be someone who studies Latino literature or culture in order to be able to come and gain an understanding from the symposium." Crow said.

Gore stumps for Internet access
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — In a high-tech ceremony Tuesday that was as much policy as politics, Vice President Al Gore nudged forward the administration's effort to guarantee universal access in America's schools, and he congratulated labor unions for their help.
Gore and Education Secretary Richard Riley invited officials from three of the nation's largest and most politically powerful labor unions — the AFL-CIO, the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, and the Communications Workers of America — to the White House for the announcement of new Internet initiatives:
The Education Department is donating 2,000 surplus computers to schools in poor communities.
to the Internet by April 1999.
Special education rate discounts of between 20 percent and 90 percent off Internet access will allow every school in the 50 largest urban school districts to connect
The Bureau of Indian Affairs will receive special help to connect its 185 schools to the Internet by next spring.
The National Science Foundation and Education Department have developed online tutoring and mentoring services for students.
The Commerce Department will conduct a three-month analysis of trends in Internet usage to determine whether there is a racial divide between informational haves and have-nots.
"We can let technology be a negative force that furthers divisions, or we can use it to connect all Americans together and give them the same shot at success." Gore said.
To the unions, in his all-but-current bid for the 2000 Democratic presidential nomination, Gore gave credit for connecting 700 of the nation's poorest schools to the Internet during the past four years.
"Y'all have worked so hard," he drawled. Aides privately billed that thank you as the ceremony's central purpose.

Despite technical glitches, Gore was able to connect Tuesday via online conference with students in Los Angeles, Kansas City, Kan., and Mississippi. Wyandotte High School senior Sakhone Khouvongsa试 an approving Gore that she surfed the Internet for college-scholarship applications and information to help her prepare for a job.
In a separate White House event, Gore proffered evidence that the administration's $195 million antidrug media campaign was working in 12 pilot cities and said it would go national in July. A recent administration review of the ad campaign showed that 97 of residents in the pilot cities had seen the ads, and 80 percent of those surveyed said the ads encouraged conversation about drug use.
On another political front, New York Democrats said Tuesday that Gore would be the keynote speaker at their state Democratic Convention next month. New York could be key to his winning the nomination in 2000.
A statewide poll out Tuesday from Marist College's Institute for Public Opinion showed Gore as the preferred nominee of 44 percent of New York Democrats. Former New Jersey Sen. Bill Bradley was second at 20 percent.
Dole awarded medal for public service
Cohen cites work with government army at ceremony
The Associated Press
FORT MYER, Va. — Praising the former Senate majority leader as the definition of heroism and courage for millions of Americans, Defense Secretary William Cohen awarded Bob Dole a public service medal yesterday.
At the armed forces full service review, Cohen recognized Dole for his leadership on the battlefield, where he served in the
Army, and on Capitol Hill, where he served in both the House and the Senate.
RICHARD B. SMITH
"He has remained a man with fire in his heart," said Cohen, who gave Dole the Defense Department's Distinguished Public Service Medal. Cohen compared Dole to a warrior eager every day to take on a new battle.
Dole: Most proud of being a Kansan and a veteran
The former Kansas Republican senator nodded his head in
rhythm with the military band and watched as soldiers from all divisions of the armed services marched before him.
Dole, who lost his bid for the presidency in 1996, accepted the award with characteristic humor.
"Between receiving an award from a secretary of defense and appointing a secretary of defense, I'd choose the latter," Dole said.
But Dole said of all the titles he has accumulated in his career, he is most proud of two that have nothing to do with an elected office: Kansan and veteran.
Dole's combat wounds in Italy during World II cost him the use of his right arm. He received the
Purple Heart Medal twice.
Cohen cited Dole for his continued commitment to veterans during his Senate career, with a law protecting the rights of the disabled and a missing persons act.
Dole responding by applauding American service men and women for their work and pledging to stand up on issues important to them.
When it comes to national defense, Dole said, "We should not define ourselves as Democrats or Republicans but simply as Americans."
Dole's wife, Elizabeth, and daughter, Robin, also attended the ceremony at the Ft. Myer base.
Tibetans begin to lose faith in peaceful ways
The Associated Press
NEW DELHI, India — For decades, the Dalai Lama has preached calm and patience to fellow Tibetans campaigning against Chinese rule in their homeland.
Now, with growing hunger strikes and the death of a man who set himself on fire, the political and spiritual leader has admitted that his moderate approach has failed in the eyes of many frustrated, desperate Tibetans.
His response could mark a watershed for the Tibetan independence movement: While reiterating that hunger strikes and suicide betray the Buddhist tradition of nonviolence, the Dalai Lama admitted he was unable to offer any alternative solutions.
"For many years, I'd been able to persuade the Tibetan people to eschew violence in our freedom struggle," he said Tuesday after visiting Thupten Ngodup, a protester who set himself on fire during a demonstration Monday against China's rule of Tibet.
Ngodup died yesterday. He was
the first Tibetan exile to die of self-immolation.
"Today, it's clear that a sense of frustration and urgency is building up among many Tibetans as evidenced by the unto-death hunger strike and the tragic incident," the Dalai Lama said.
His followers, who believe he is the incarnation of a Buddhist deity, may interpret his admission as approval of more forceful tactics such as hunger strikes and suicides.
The Dalai Lama — a title that means Ocean of Mercy — has lobbied heads of governments, popes and potentates to try to push China toward more autonomy for Tibet. But China, which invaded Tibet in 1950 and annexed it nine years later, has not budged.
"In that sense my efforts have failed," he said.
Younger militants have expressed increasing impatience with the Dalai Lama's moderate policies.
"We, the people of Tibet, need an answer," said 'Tseten Norbu, president of the Tibetan Youth Congress, which organized a hunger strike that culminated

with Nogodup's self-immolation.
"How long should we wait, wait and wait?"
The Youth Congress has long advocated more forceful steps. It organized the hunger strike even though the Dalai Lama had stepped in to stop similar protests in the past.
"The Tibetan youth are getting desperate," said Dawa Norbu, a professor of Tibetan studies at New Delhi's Jawaharlal Nehru University.
violence to push their cause, either outside the country or against the Chinese in Tibet.
It is unlikely, however, that any Tibetan group would defy the Dalal Lama's principles to the extent of waging a campaign of
The Dalai Lama is the religious and political leader for more than 100,000 people campaigning from exile in India to increase freedom for Tibet and for many of the 6 million people who live in Tibet.
Although radicals disagree with his methods, few challenge his authority.
Nogdup, a 50-year-old former Buddhist monk, was to have been among a group to take up the hunger strike after the first six were forced to stop. Five men began fasting Tuesday.
Ngodup set himself on fire.
A handwritten sign propped against Nodupg's coffin at a prayer vigil yesterday declared Tibetans would follow his example "one by one." But such a radical recipe does not appeal to all.
"I feel that with this sacrifice people will become more determined to achieve independence," said Yang Kyl, a 21-year-old Tibetan who attended the prayer vigil. "But I personally feel it's better to continue the struggle peacefully."

Abortion pill may hit U.S. market in 1999
The Associated Press
RU-486 tests continue
BOSTON — The first formal testing of the abortion pill RU-486 in the United States found that it successfully ended pregnancies in 92 percent of women.
Although the drug already has been widely tested and used in Europe, the Food and Drug Administration requested that additional studies of its safety and effectiveness be done in the United States.
The drug's U.S. developer says it hopes to have the pill on the market sometime next year.
In this study, the drug was slightly less effective than in earlier European experiments, where it triggered abortions in 96 percent to 98 percent of women.
need for surgery. The approach was considered a failure if women did not abort after 15 days, although some abortions might have occurred after that.
Success meant that the women expelled their fetuses without the
The researchers said the pill may have appeared to work less well in this test because U.S. doctors were inexperienced at giving abortion medicines or because of the way the study was designed.
"The side effects we saw are what are expected for the drug to work," Ann Robbins said. "You need to bleed, and you have to have cramps, and that's what we saw."
Robbins was the study's manager at the Population Council, which was given U.S. rights to the medicine in 1994 by the French manufacturer Roussel Uelaf. The FDA declared the drug safe and effective in 1996.
The Population Council licensed its rights to the drug to the Danco Group, a pharmaceutical firm, after plans to get the drug made by a Hungarian company fell through.
At Danco, representative Heather O'Neill said the company had found a manufacturer, which she
declined to identify, and was working out details with the FDA to get the drug on the market in 1999.
The study found the drug was most effective when given within 49 days of gestation. The longer a woman had been pregnant, the less likely the pill was to work.
The drug, also known as mifepristone, blocks the effects of a hormone that is necessary to maintain pregnancy.
Two days after taking the pill, the woman must return to her doctor's office to take a hormone called mispristol, which causes uterine contractions to expel the fetus. The woman must wait there four hours in case of severe reactions, such as diarrhea and nausea and about half abort during this time.
April Holley, a representative of the National Right to Life Committee, said the organization had not reviewed the study and had no comment about it.
The study was conducted on 2,121 women at 17 Planned Parenthood clinics, freestanding abortion clinics and university hospitals across the country.

Tags give license to politics
Florida plates to bear anti-abortion message
The Associated Press
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — Amid protests against putting an anti-abortion message on vehicle license tags, a "Choose Life" specialty plate won approval yesterday in the Florida Legislature.
The bright yellow plate with drawings of a smiling boy and girl would be the first of about 40 Florida specialty plates to bear a political message. It passed the Florida House 77-41 a day after clearing the Senate 28-12. Gov. Lawton Chiles was expected to let the measure become law. In Florida, a bill becomes law without a signature if the governor does not veto it within 15 days.
"This is the year of the child, for heaven's sake," said Republican Sen. John Grant during yesterday's debate, referring to spending increases for education, health care and other children's programs. "Why can't we say 'choose life'?"
Democratic Sen. Buddy Dyer got a laugh during the heated debate with his suggestion that, "Next year, when we bring back 'Vote Democratic' I would expect you to support that plate."
But critics said the message was a political statement on abortion, not merely a pro-adoption statement.
The specialty tags already honor everything from the endangered Florida panther to the NHL's Florida Panthers. There are plates for education, the arts, state universities, veterans groups and other professional sports teams.
Other new plates are sailing through the Legislature without problems, including tags for wild dolphins, the Florida Everglades and Barry University.
"If we think road rage is a problem now, we can't imagine what it will be like when people start wanting to put all their political views on license plates," said Renee Mitchell, the director of a Tallahassee women's clinic.
Nearly three-fourths of the proceeds from the $20-a-year tag would support the care of needy mothers and infants. The rest is earmarked for adoption services.
The organization that crafted the bill. Choose Life Inc., has collected 10,000 signatures in support of the plate and paid the $30,000 fee to the state to develop it.
Nothing in state law restricts the subject matter of specialty tags. There are already 41 themes.

Gore travels to Israel for its 50th anniversary
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — With only limited hope of persuading Israel and the Palestinians to resume stalled peace negotiations, Vice President Al Gore went to the Middle East yesterday to attend Israel's 50th birthday celebrations and to hold talks with Israeli and Palestinian leaders. Gore also is to meet with leaders in Saudi Arabia and Egypt this weekend.
The timing of Gore's trip is important because it comes on the eve of talks in London brokered by the United States and Britain. Secretary of State Madeleine Albright and British officials will hold separate meetings with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat.
In a hopeful sign, Arafat accepted an American proposal yesterday that Israel
withdraw in stages from 13 percent of the West Bank's disputed land. Israeli officials have said Netanyahu will offer no more than 11 percent.

The dispute about how much more land Israel will yield has produced a standoff in the West Bank. Arafat said at the weekend he would press ahead with a declaration of

"Even if Netanyahu finds it within himself to recognize that one or two or three percent is not the lincipin of Israeli security, we are confident that there will be all sorts of conditionality clauses and phrases that would provide Israel with the proper justification or rationalization for noncompliance," she said.
Mike McCurry, White House press secretary, discouraged expectation that Gore's trip would produce a breakthrough.
"My expectations were never that this would be a critical moment for decision-making in the process," McCurry said. "But it will lend, we hope, some moment."
tum to the thinking of those who believe now is the time for these parties to be very serious about bridging the gaps in their positions."
McCurry said the primary purpose of Gore's trip was to attend celebrations marking the 50th anniversary of the founding of the Jewish state.
Gore, traveling with his wife, Tipper, was scheduled to arrive in Israel to an official greeting this morning by Netanyahu. The Gores will attend Independence Day events in Jerusalem tonight.
Tomorrow Gore will meet with Netanyahu, hold a joint news conference and will attend a luncheon hosted by Netanyahu. The Gores will fly Friday night to the Red Sea port city of Jiddah, Saudi Arabia, where Gore expects to meet King Fahd on Saturday.
"It will lend, we hope, some momentum to the thinking of those who believe now is the time for these parties to be very serious about bridging the gaps in their positions."

Gore will fly Saturday to the West Bank to meet with Arafat, then to Cairo for a meeting Sunday with President Hosni Mubarak before returning to Washington on Monday.
Mammals may predate dinosaurs' extinction
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Maybe you learned it in school: Mammals waited until the dinosaurs died out before they started diversifying into the variety of major groups seen today.
That's what the fossils say.
That's what the fossils say.
But a new study says it isn't so.
Most of the modern groups, or "orders," of mammals apparently began before the dinosaurs met their doom 65 million years ago, researchers conclude.
The work suggests at least five major lineages, which today include such creatures as rodents, elephants and armadillos, might have appeared more than 100 million years ago.
The results, based on analysis of genes, are presented in Thursday's issue of the journal Nature by S. Blair Hedges and a colleague at Pennsylvania State University. Hedges and coauthors published a similar study in 1996, but their new study includes many more genes.
They looked at 658 genes from 207 kinds of modern animals. They chose genes that accumulate changes over time, apparently at a constant rate, and used them like tiny clocks to estimate when various species arose.
Michael Novacek, curator of vertebrate paleontology at the American Museum of Natural History in New York, said he is skeptical of that approach.
"I think the fact that the fossil record doesn't support this is a serious issue," he said.
Troubles in Israel cast pall over celebrations
The Associated Press
JERUSALEM —To the piercing cry of a ram's horn and the ethereal strains of a biblical harp, Israel ushered in celebrations of its 50th birthday yesterday, marking its anguished rise from the ashes of the Holocaust.
In a twilight ceremony atop Mount Herzl — named for a Zionist visionary who did not live to see the founding of the Jewish state — a dozen torches symbolizing the 12 tribes of Israel were set ablaze.
"Long live the state of Israel!" Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said before red, green and blue fireworks lit the ancient stones of Jerusalem.
But in Israel — a nation not quite at war but hardly at peace — the mood was short of celebratory.
An array of woes — the breakdown of peace talks with the Palestinians, a sharp split between secular and religious Jews, increasing restiveness among the country's 1 million Arab citizens — left many Israelis feeling it was no time to throw a party.
But even amid the doubts and divisions, the anniversary brought heartfelt displays of homegrown pride.
From the rolling green hills of the Galilee to sun-baked towns of the Negev desert, thousands of blue-and-white Israeli flags hung from apartment balconies and fluttered from car windows.
"I feel happy and at home — that's enough for me," said Even Livni, 73, who emigrated from the former Yugoslavia in 1951.
Netanyahu, in an anniversary statement, called Israel a "modern miracle," citing a roll call of cultural, technical and economic accomplishments. Simple survival, of Israel as a state and the Jews as a people in the face of Nazi genocide, headed the list.
From birth, Israel has been besieged—and, critics say, sometimes belligerent and hostile.
Early wars against Arab neighbors were widely seen by Israelis as righteous ones. But later conflicts — the 1982 invasion of Lebanon and the 1987-93 Palestinian uprising — were much more morally ambiguous, profoundly shaking the sense of national purpose.
For many Israelis, the continuing clash
with the Palestinians puts the greatest damper on anniversary festivities. Palestinians regard Israel's creation as "al naqba" — the catastrophe — heralding a half century of struggle and statelessness.
"You have to remember that at the same time (as Israel's independence), we embarked on our disaster," said Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat.
While Israel celebrates, Palestinians are shut out in the most literal sense: passage from the West Bank and Gaza Strip has been blocked for all but emergency medical cases until Saturday night, the end of the holiday weekend.
In a country where security is a constant worry, festivities were under tight guard: roadblocks, snipers, bomb-dispalous squads and thousands of soldiers at sensitive sites.
Israel's birthday — like those of many people in middle age — has brought painful self-examination.
Historians are re-evaluating founding myths. An anniversary television series, sympathetic to Palestinian aspirations even while depicting Arab terrorism, sparked angry debate.
Despite such soul-searching, there is still deen satisfaction in things Israeli.
This country took Hebrew — a language "torn from sleep in the Bible," as poet Yehuda Amichal put it — and made it a modern tongue, expanding its vocabulary fifteenfold.
Street scenes are a vibrant mix of blackhatted Orthodox, gun-toting soldiers, immigrants from Ethiopia and Russia and young professionals hurrying to high-tech jobs.
Israeli have developed a national character all their own: informal and brusque to the point of rudeness, but also warm, sharp-witted and spontaneous.
Not surprisingly, the celebrations themselves are showcasing that character in all its contentiousness.
Squabbles have erupted about everything from a stripease-style gala dance number to the historical emphasis of commemorative events. The chief organizer's job changed hands four times.
Report says accidental nuclear war possible
Even the dress rehearsal for tonight's extravaganza featured a messy emblematic moment: the country's most famous pop diva, Rita, got stuck in a stalled lift delivering her to the stage for her big entrance.
Paper's authors admit scenario not likely intended as a warning
WASHINGTON — A doomsday scenario, written by an anti-nuclear physicians group and published in the New England Journal of Medicine, reads more like a Hollywood script than a scientific paper.
The Associated Press
The first nuclear missiles would come from a rogue Russian submarine making an unauthorized launch. After the first missile broke the surface of the Barents Sea, 6.8 million Americans would have just 30 minutes before a "giant firestorm" turned them to dust. Then all-out nuclear war could break out, erasing billions from Earth.
"There's an assumption of a crew-wide collusion and cooperation." Bruce Blair, one of the paper's authors, acknowledged yesterday. "It would require a conspiracy of some magnitude to pull this off."
The crew not only would have to breach command-and-control protocol, but also would have to gain access to top secret launching codes.
Most experts believe a more plausible scenario for an accidental post-Cold War nuclear confrontation would involve defending against a false warning indicating Russian or U.S. missiles were in the air.
But both the Clinton and Yeltsin administrations have assured the world repeatedly that plenty of safeguards exist.
"We believe there is good command and control of both the U.S. and Russian deployed nuclear weapons that would preclude an accidental launch," said P.J. Crowley, a White House spokesman.
Physicians for Social Responsibility argues in its report that nuclear accidents could happen because Russia and the United States maintain several thousand strategic warheads each, many on high alert. The weapons' targets were symbolically removed in 1994.
The physicians and other health care groups, saying medical facilities would be
overwhelmed by an atomic blast, have been lobbying since the 1960s for elimination of nuclear weapons.
Most of the five-page paper lobbies against atomic arms, making it more of an opinion piece than scientific evaluation, acknowledged Gregory Curtman, a deputy editor of the journal. But Curfman said the paper was reviewed by peers and was published because doctors have an interest in the topic.
"The scenarios we felt were pretty speculative and it contains elements of opinion," he said. "But we decided that if there were one of these accidents, there would be serious health implications to discuss."
Dr. Christine Cassel, a paper co-author, said that after the Cold War, "The public lost interest in the possibility of nuclear war. But the threat, the risk, did not stop. It just changed."
In 1989, Cassel played herself in "The Package," a movie about the possibility of a nuclear holocaust.
"The saga of the Mir space station bears witness to the problems of aging Russian technical systems." the paper notes.
According to the paper's scenario, a Delta-IV sub patrolling the Barents Sea north of Russia launches 16 missiles, each armed with four 100-kilton nuclear warheads — each warhead eight times the strength of Hiroshima.
Assuming a 25 percent failure rate, a dozen missiles would hit eight U.S. cities at night — Washington, New York, Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, Pittsburgh, San Francisco and Seattle — killing nearly everyone at ground zero, or 6.8 million people.
"There may be a rare survivor, but essentially everyone dies," said Dr. Ira Helfand, a co-author who estimated another 6 million to 12 million would die of radiation sickness in the following month.
"This could lead to all-out nuclear war," he added. The report said billions could die worldwide.
The bombing would create "a giant firestorm with hurricane-force winds" and boiling air temperatures, followed by deadly epidemics of illness and infectious diseases among refugees, the report said.

PROJECTS IN PROGRESS
Following recommendation of the Kansas Board of Regents and approval by the 1996 Kansas Legislature, in May 1996, Governor Bill Graves signed Senate Bill 588. This legislation authorized "Crumbling Classrooms" bond-funded improvements for buildings and infrastructure on the Regents' campuses.
The Crumbling Classroom initiative to improve campus facilities includes work in four general categories:
- support for the instructional mission by improving classrooms and class labs
*projects for building accessibility and physical accommodation to comply with the federally mandated Americans with Disabilities Act
*improvements in buildings related to fire codes and fire protection
*upgrades to basic services to facilities, including electrical, heating and cooling equipment
Work has been underway for the past two years on the Lawrence campus to identify criteria for classroom improvements and to consider staging of work over a total of a four year period. Proposed projects have been reviewed relative to scope of work, location, urgency and matched to on-campus and contracted design firms, hazardous material abatement and construction contractors. The objective in planning several years worth of work had been to minimize--to the extent possible--the impact on day-to-day activities.
In addition, architectural/engineering firms have been selected to design four major capital projects. These include the renovation of Joseph R. Pearson Hall for the School of Education, an addition to Murphy Hall for the School of Fine Arts, and sizeable projects for improving building service and code compliance for Strong Hall and Malott Hall. These projects as well as projects for Housing, Athletics and the general needs for campus parking and infrastructure are included.
The list identified below includes projects which are currently at some point in the design and construction sequence. For each project a calendar is provided which outlines the steps of project development including the following: projected design completion; anticipated start of construction; and project completion.

Men finish with low win record

Players content with performance despite 9-14 end
By Erin Thompson
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas men's tennis team finished the season with its lowest win total in 16 years, but the season was not considered a total loss.
Members of the team said they were not disappointed with the team's performance despite its 9-14 season record.
"I think the main goal was to try to do as best as we could and represent the University as best as we could," said senior Xavier Avila. "I'm pretty happy with the season, especially individually. I have no regrets."
The season was not as successful as some expected, but the Jayhawks remain optimistic for the NCAA Region V tournament, which tentatively is set for Tulsa, Okla., although the location will not be official until May 5.
"We had bad luck with some injuries this season," Avila said. "We played a lot better at the Big 12 Tournament. We'll see what happens in the regionals."
Postseason play in NCAA tennis begins with regional tournaments. If a team wins the regional tournament, it qualifies for the national championships.
"We had a similar season to last year," Avila said. "Enrique being out for two months was a factor."
But the loss of several players turned the season in the wrong direction. Most notable was the loss of Enrique Abaroa to a back injury.
The outlook was good for the Jayhawks going into this season. The top two singles players and two of the team's three bottom singles players returned from last season's team, which compiled a 19-8 record.
"It's an honor for me. I've been trying to do my best," Avala said.

Bright spots broke through, including Avila being named one of 15 finalists for the annual Scholar-Athlete Postgraduate Scholarship Award given by the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics.
Avila has a 3.83 GPA as an economics major and was named to the Academic All-Big 12 first team. Last year he was named an Academic All-American.
The winners will be named at the NACDA annual convention June 16 in Marco Island, Fla.
Another positive aspect of the season was the play of the doubles team of Abaroa and Luis Uribe. The team, ranked 21st in the nation, had an 8-4 record. Last Friday at the Big 12 Tournament, Abaroa and Uribe defeated the second-ranked doubles team in the nation, Pavel Kurdna and Martin Dvoracove of Oklahoma State.
"We had been thinking about that one for a long time," Uribe said. "Once we had the opportunity to knock them off, we took advantage."
Abaroa and Uribe are 5-1 against nationally ranked opponents, including four wins against top-15 pairs.

German center plans Kansas visit next week

Kansan sportswriter
Dirk Nowitzki, a 6-foot-11 center from Germany, told recruiting analyst Mike Sullivan that he would visit Kansas and three other colleges next week during his trip to the United States.
Nowitzki said his other visits included Utah, Kentucky and California, which has been considered the longtime front-runner.
But the 20-year-old — who will be released from the German army in June — has received lucrative offers to play professional basketball in Europe. Nowitki said that he would spend one or two years in college before entering the NRA Draft.
He will start his tour of the four schools either this weekend or next week. Nowitki is in the process of ordering plane tickets and setting his itinerary.
Notitziw will return to Germany after his visits to consult with his parents and to pick a college, probably after the spring signing period ends May 15. If that occurs, he would not be committed to the school until he showed up for the fall semester.
California has led the sweepstakes for Nowitzki for some time. Bears coach Ben Braun visited with Nowitzki in Germany last month, allegedly to secure an oral commitment.
But Nowitzki said he wanted to visit each
of the contenders.
Analyst Sullivan has been helping Nowitzki and his coach sift through the schools
Notitzki's team asked Sullivan for a detailed analysis of each of the finalists. Both coach and player admitted that they did not know much about American schools and that they needed some assistance.
This will be Newtit's second trip to America this spring. He visited San Antonio recently for the Nike Hoops Summit game last month, recording 33 points.
and 13 rebounds in the World Team's 104-99 victory. He was a remarkable 21-for-22 from the free-throw line that game.
The Jayhawks also are recruiting Ashante Johnson, a 6-9 swingman from Canada (Calif.) Junior College.
Johnson could replace some of the scoring punch that was lost at small forward when Paul Pierce declared early for the NBA Draft.
Kansas has one scholarship left, which was used by former walk-on Terry Nooner last season.
Johnson said he would decide among Kansas, Xavier, Florida State and Pepperdine early next week, when Nowitzki will be touring the country.
Students work out schedules to fit new Robinson hours
By Tamara Miller
Kansan staff writer
tmiller@kansan.com
The center will be open from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., Monday through Friday. On Saturday and Sunday, the center will be open from 1 to 8 p.m. Summer hours start May 14th.
Students using Robinson Center this summer may have to make some time adjustments.
Any student enrolled for summer or fall may use the center during the summer.
However, students may want to avoid working out in the middle of the afternoon, said Bob Lockwood, Robinson director. Certain areas of the building, including the swimming pool and the raquetteball courts do not have air conditioning, he said.
"Students can still come, but they may want to come later in the afternoon when it starts to cool off," he said.
Nhan Nguyen, Wichita junior, said he used Robinson last summer. Often the weight room was closed or Robinson's hours did match his schedule, he said. This summer, he said he would probably go to the Lawrence Athletic Club, 3201 Mesa Wav.
"A lot of my friends go there because it's open 24 hours a day," he said.
ROBINSON CENTER HOURS
Robinson Center fall and spring hours:
Monday Thursday: 5:10-3 p.m.
Saturday: 9:30-11 a.m.
Friday: 12:30-10:30 p.m.
Saturday: 8 a.m.-10:30 p.m.
Sunday: 1-10:30 p.m.
Robinson Center summer hours, starting Mav 14:
■ Monday-Friday: 8 a.m.-8 p.m.
■ Saturday and Sunday: 1-8 p.m.
"Robinson's hours are so short, and you can't get on any of the equipment."
Lockwood said that classes were scheduled throughout the day in the swimming pool, the racquetball court and the weight room. Although students may come to Robinson any time during the open hours, some areas periodically will be closed off because of classes or lack of supervision. Signs will be posted indicating when the room will be available again, he said.
"Whatever is academically scheduled will have priority." he said.
Robinson's hours during the fall and spring semesters are 5 to 10:30 p.m., Monday through Thursday. On Fridays, Robinson is open from 12:30 to 10:30 p.m. On Saturday, Robinson is open 8 a.m. to 10:30 p.m., and Sunday it is open 1 a.m. to 10:30 p.m.
Commentary
Love for sports losing ground as corporations take over games
Like the comedy hit *Seinfeld*, I feel the time is right to step down (Columnist grabs for the Puffs—no, make that Kleenex).
While you're thinking, I'm going to share with you my feelings on this subject which I take personally
Just like Jerry, George, Elaine and Kramer,
I want to go out while my career is peaking,
on my own terms, before I get kicked out.
With that I have one final question for you:
Are professional and collegiate sports getting better with time, or are they losing the flavor which made them so great?
Professional and collegiate sports are losing the flavor which made them so great. The intrinsic value is disappearing while outside money is appearing on center stage.
COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY
It's sad that professional and collegiate sports have become a big business that depends heavily on contributions and influences of corporate America.
Adam Herschman
sports@ kansan.com
Corporations are using
professional and collegiate sports as a pawn to make money so they can grow even bigger and have even more power in our society.
Products are in our faces constantly while watching a game, from the Nike Halftime Show on TNT to the Nokia, Car Quest, Alamo, Federal Express. Frosted Flakes Cereal Bowl.
Commercials are increasing in number and are slowing the speed of the game, brainwashing the public and selling false dreams to kids. For example do you remember Nike's old slogan, "It's got to be the shoes?"
Therefore, the leagues give owners more money from television deals so the teams can pay players higher salaries. Owners can buy a championship through free agency like the Florida Marlins did last season, and athletes can hold out for $125 million instead of accepting a $116 million offer.
Television contract amounts have reached the billions of dollars for some of the collegiate and professional sports, because the major networks know corporations will pay even more than their investments to market their products through commercials.
So who gets screwed?
Now, it looks like the NBA is headed for a strike because of the labor agreement between the owners and players associations.
Since the beginning of this decade, I haven't found professional and collegiate sports as fun to watch and follow as I used to. I miss the personality that sports used to encourage while they tried to gain popularity in the 1970s and 1980s.
The fans of course, because merchandise and ticket prices increase. Therefore, only a certain group of people can afford season tickets.
Arguments about money caused Major League Baseball to strike a short time ago, and baseball hasn't been the same since.
Everything has become so commercial and political because of the vested interests from team owners, professional leagues, the NCAA, universities, coaches, trainers, players, players' agents, marketing firms, corporate America, mascots and mascots' agents.
There's too much money involved right now, and it's corrupting the value of sports.
I liked it when basketball players wore jewelry like Daryl "Chocolate Thunder" Dawkins. I miss the touchdown dances which made Washington Redskins "Fun Bunch" and Houston Oilers wide receiver Billy "White Shoes" Johnson popular.
Rivalries like the Lakers-Celtics with Magic Johnson and Larry Bird don't exist anymore. Technological advances like instant replay and equipment advancements (shoes) take the old-school aspect away. Hall-of-Famer Walt Frazier used to play basketball in low-cut Pumas.
The coach, role player, pinch hitter and special teams player are parts of the game that used to be publicized but today are overshadowed by the heavily marketed superstar.
When I watch sports I don't see players or teams. I see organizations making money.
It's a tough reality to face, just like the end of Seinfeld.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (April 30).
You'll learn a lot this year, more than you ever expected. Make plans with your sweetheart in May. Spend July studying. If you cram, you can learn just about anything you need to know.
Aries: Today is a 4.
Taurus: Today is a 9.
If you take the advice of a friend and a bureaucrat, not necessarily in that order, you can put in a correction that will make you much more effective. If this does not make sense, just follow the advice of anybody in a position to know what they're talking about.
You don't know everything yet, but you're learning,
and it's noticeable. You'll get a good opportunity this
afternoon, so make sure you're paying attention.
You've got lots of energy and you're interested in the
topic. How lucky can you get?
Gemini: Today is a 5.
Money could come into your account today, and it's about time. You've been waiting for quite a while and putting up with something at home that needs replacing Plan to go shopping for a new one tonight or tomorrow night. Either would be good times for finding a bargain.
Cancer: Today is an 8.
You're in the spotlight and that's OK. You also look like the recipient of more responsibility. Are you in a position where you have to take care of other people's money? If not, that could happen soon. And it looks like you'll be good at it, too.
Leo: Today is a 4.
You could make more money this morning with little effort. Look for a way to increase your income, possibly by taking on another job. Your skills are in demand. You may hear about an opportunity from a friend around dinnertime. This is an insider tip, so don't tell anyone where you heard it.
Virgo: Today is a 9.
Something you don't want anymore would make a wonderful gift for a friend in need. It's just taking up space and you'd like to get it out of your closet. Not only will you be doing a good deed, but you'll be bringing even more favorable attention to yourself.
Libra: Today is a 5.
You could say or do something today to greatly further your career. The opportunity will come quickly and must be acted on quickly. You're definitely up for the challenge, especially if you can figure it out ahead of time and be in the right place when it happens.
Scorpio: Today is an 8.
Sagittarius: Today is a 4.
it looks like money is coming into your account. This is a surprise. There's plenty of work, but a friend is helping with that, so it's a lot easier. And you may be able, finally, to pay off a big debt. That's a marvelous feeling.
Capricorn: Today is a 9.
Aquarius: Today is a 5.
You're under pressure, but you're not in the battle alone anymore. You've got a good partner, who can do some of your chores even better than you can. Let it happen. If you're working with the right person, the two of you will be absolutely awesome.
This would be a good day to pay off a bill. It looks more like it will take ingenuity on your part. Maybe you'll pay off one credit card with another, and get a lower interest rate. That's not the same as paying it off, but it's better than nothing.
Not only do you have a lot of work already, but there's more coming in every minute. You could easily talk yourself into being overwhelmed, if you had the time. Luckily, you don't. Instead, keep reminding yourself how smart you are and how good you are at figuring things out.
Pisces: Today is an 8.
Everything looks rosy. And speaking of roses, this would be a marvelous day to plant some. You're adept at making things grow. You're also good at nurturing people. You'll see the results of your labors in a variety of ways.

ARLINGTON, Texas — No major leaguer has ever driven in more runs to start a season than Texas' Juan Gonzalez.
Gonzalez's two-run homer in the ninth inning of Tuesday's 7-2 victory against Minnesota gave him 35 RBI in April, breaking the record for the month set last year by Tino Martinez of the New York Yankees.
Baseball season starts with broken RBI record
With a game remaining today, Gonzalez had a shot at breaking his best for RBI in month, which was 38. He set that mark in July 1996 during his MVP season in the AL.
Gonzalez also drove in a run on March 31, giving him 36 for the year and setting the major-league mark for RBI before May.
Should Gonzalez keep up the pace, he could make a run at Hack Wilson's season record of 190 RBI set in 1930. The last player to come close was Tommie Davis of the Los Angeles Dodgers with 153 in 1962.
Going into yesterday's games, Gonzalez was fourth in the AL with a .379 average, was second in runs scored with 22, was second in hits with 39 and was tied for third with 10 doubles. His seven home runs have him in a three-way tie for sixth, one behind the leaders.

"Quick, quick,
quick, quick is
the best way I
can describe
him," said North Idaho coach Hugh Watson. "He really plays hard. He can take the ball to the bucket and also hit the open man. I think he'll really do a good job for Texas."
Barnes said, "We're excited about the addition of Nathaniel to this year's recruiting class. He fits in very well with both William Clay and Vohn Hunter. All three have a chance to be an important part of what we do in the future."
Bailey helped lead Johnson City Science Hill High School to two state championships as a sophomore and junior. He attended Odessa College in Texas for one season before transferring to North Idaho College.
He averaged 14.1 points, 4.0 assists and 3.2 steals per game last season.
Hits, not homers, have players running bases
DENVER — While Dante Bichette leads the National League with a .420 average, he has hit just one home run in the first 27 games.
"I'm feeling good, my strength is good, I'm more physically capable of doing things this year," said Bichette, who spent most of last season limping on a surgically left knee but still finished with a .308 average, 26 homers and 118 RBI.
He added 36 pounds, most of it muscle, during the offseason in preparation for the increased power demands of moving into the cleanup
spot following the departure of Andres Galarraga.
Instead of power, he has a major league high of 50 hits following Tuesday night's win against the Florida Martins. It was his third four-hit game of the season, and he also had a five-hit game.
"I feel like I'm not going to miss a ball," he said. "My bat feels quick, I'm seeing the ball good, I have a good mental approach. I'm putting the ball in play and hitting it hard, and I'm keeping my strikeouts down. I'm not going to change a thing. Don't ask me to change a thing."

"There has been a homer drought here," he said with typical self-deprecating humor. "I'd love to say that I want to hit more home runs, but I can't ask for more than this. Runs win ball games, and as long as we keep scoring runs, it doesn't matter how."
will be hard-pressed to approach the 40 homers he hit in 1995,

Bichette has embraced the cleanup spot, even if his productivity has not been distributed exactly as the Rockies expected it would be.
Bichette is tied with Cincinnati's Dmitri Young for the league lead in doubles (11) and is fourth in the league in runs scored with 23. He also has 22 RBI, which ranks among the top 10 in the league.
But he seems to take more delight in setting the table for No. 5 hitter Vinny Castilla, who leads the NL in homers (11) and RBI (33).
"Somebody's got to get on base for Vinny," he said. "I'll get on base and Vinny can clear them out."

NCAA lets athletes have jobs
Student-athletes work at practice but not for pay
By Kurt Caywood The Associated Press
TOPEKA — The NCAA board of directors is putting more young people to work than the Ameri-Corps program. Unfortunately, it also is giving rise to more controversy than the Clinton White House.
Beginning in August, student-athletes will have the right to be student-athlete-employees during the school year, with the power to earn as much as $2,000.
Beginning in August, someone like T.J. Pugh or Michael Bishop can get a job at the Concock station, pump gas after school for 10 hours a week and, each Friday, beam with pride as he picks up his hard-earned paycheck in the amount of about $50.
Except that is not how it will work.
Virtually no one involved in Division I athletics has 10 more hours to carve out of his or her week to hold down a part-time job. No one would really want to if it were possible.
This is why the NCAA is allowing athletic department officials and boosters to help procure suitable employment, which, in most cases will mean jobs that pay well and demand little.
All of a sudden the playing field is not so level. There are a lot more high-pay, low-work jobs in cities and on the coasts than there are in Manhattan and Lawrence. UCLA has a better shot than Kansas of setting up its basketball players as $500-a-day movie extras.
Won't these jobs become just another recruiting inducement, you ask. Yes, I answer.
The mere fact that boosters are written back into NCAA rules is astounding. Defending the new policy, David Berst, head of the NCAA's enforcement department, said boosters would do what
coaches told them and coaches would not just turn a blind eye as they did in the olden days.
I wonder, will this happen because coaches today are so much better as people or because there is so much less pressure to win nowadays than there used to be?
Come on.
While they were in their chicken-in-every-pot mood, the NCAA lifted the five-year limit on restricted earnings coaches. Or maybe they just saw the writing on the wall, since they are in position to lose a judgment that could amount to more than $100 million for trying to restrict coaches' earnings.
Either way, it is good news. Schools are going to need that extra, experienced hand to help ride herd on these working players and the layers of bureaucracy they will create.
More and more, the NCAA appears an anachronism.
Sadly, the board of directors tried to do the right thing in allowing jocks to get jobs. These kids really
do need some spending money.
But the action was that of a body either out of touch with reality or unwilling to accept it. Allowing student-athletes to have jobs treats the symptom without addressing the real issue, which cuts to the heart of the organization.
Student-athletes already have jobs. They are students and athletes. Those involved in football and basketball generate billions of dollars for their schools and the NCAA. By now it is cliche to suggest they should share in the booty, but it needs to be suggested again.
Pay players.
Not a lot. A hundred bucks a month. That is enough. They are too busy to spend more than that. Too expensive? Tough. Make it work.
Providing a standard stipend as part of a student-athlete's grant-in- aid would keep boosters out of the equation and eliminate geographical biases that will skew recruiting.
But best of all, it would be an admission that the NCAA is as much about money as it is competition. It would be honest.
Buyers promise no extra charges
Royals buyout should not affect local utility bills
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — So, you open your morning paper and see that attendance at the Kansas City Royals' games is in free fall.
Then, when you open your electric bill, it shows a $5.50 per month increase to make up for the baseball team's losses.
Is this possible, considering the regional utility, Western Resources Inc., has teamed with Kansas City Chiefs owner Lamar Hunt in order to buy the Royals?
Not a chance, says Western Resources chairman and chief executive John E. Hayes Jr., who says no utility customers
will be affected.
Westar Capital, the company that would co-own the Royals with Hunt, is a subsidiary separate from Western's utilities, Hayes has. He also said Westar has a separate financial system.
However, Western's shareholders — who would share any ownership stake in the baseball team — may fare differently.
"They will realize the losses, yes," Hayes said.
But the purchase of the Royals would be a relatively small investment for a company as big as Western, he added.
"It will not have a meaningful impact on our shareowners," he said.
Hayes said what is more important to shareholders, electric customers and everyone else in Kansas City is to keep the area economically viable.
"Sports teams create a focal point for what people perceive to be the quality of life in a community," he said.
The two groups joined forces in an effort to split the costs and the risks of owning the team, which has struggled on the field and lost millions of dollars in recent years.
KC R Royals
Although he was not in position to offer much comment, American League president Gene Budig was delighted that strong ownership possibilities that could keep the Royals in Kansas City had emerged. Budig, when he was chancellor at the University of Kansas, was a close friend of the late Ewing Kauffman, the Royals' founder, and once served on the team's board of directors.
"The American League is encouraged that there are several groups actively interested in acquiring the Royals and keeping them in Kansas City," Budig said from his office in New York. "We hope Mr. Kauffman's wish will become reality in the months ahead. The league will have no comment until the Royals' board of directors has made a decision on the bidder."
One problem the Hunt/Western Resources team might encounter is their plan to have each partner own 50 percent. That has proven a problem with sports franchises in the past, and baseball has not approved such an arrangement since 1986 when the New York Mets restructured their ownership to give Fred Wilpon and Nelson Doubleday 50 percent each.
Hunt, who plans to be the managing partner, probably would be asked to have at least 50.1 percent of the ownership. However, Budig declined to confirm this.
Accidents attract NASCAR race fans
The Associated Press
TALLADEGA, Ala. — Boby Labonte knows what a track like Talladge Superspeedway can do to a driver.
Although he was lucky enough to avoid a 20-car wreck in the DieHard 500 and win the race, he has not forgotten the perils of running on the world's biggest oval track — a place where it is every man for himself.
"You spend 29 races a year trying to be nice to everybody," he said. "If you're in the way, you move out of the way, and if you're faster, guys move out of the way for you. Here, it's just the opposite. It's kind of hard to have friends."
Those thoughts were echoed in much stronger terms by almost every driver whose car was towed, pushed or scraped off the first turn after the fiery wreck put more than half the field out of contention last Sunday.
The accident was not surprising, nor was the reaction from officials at NASCAR's most dangerous track. They are already looking forward to their next race in October.
"Quite frankly, in my opinion, this is the most exciting race track in the world," said Talladega president Grant Lynch. "You see guys here racing side by side, lap after lap. Nobody in the stands sits down. They didn't leave their seats for 140 laps, until we had the mishap."
Because the accident did not cause any serious injuries, the day turned out almost perfect from the track's standpoint. About 125,000 people showed up. The race was decided, as usual, on the last lap.
Every complaint by a driver also seemed to serve as testimony to why racing fans love the track.
"As long as people want to see 40 cars going nose to tail, you're not going to change," said Jimmy Makar, Labonte's crew chief. "As long as they keep us bunched, I'd say, yeah, you're going to see stuff like that."
So the second-guessing will continue, mostly from inside the garage.
NASCAR
They will blame it on speed-limiting carburetor restrictor plates. They will blame it on jittery drivers. They will complain about 43 cars racing within a fuel filter's distance of each other at speeds of more than 190 mph.
"I feel really awful about it," said Ward Burton, whose innocent bump of Dale Earnhardt triggered the chain reaction. "Of course, it's nothing I would do on purpose by any means, particularly the three car. I will say I think I caused it, and I know a lot of people in the past have speculated and speculated and nobody has taken the blame for it."
A nice gesture, but not enough to make up for a week's worth of lost work by drivers like Earnhardt, Bill Elliott and Mark Martin. The hopes of all three ended in the wreck.
"Sometimes you wonder if cars have outgrown this race track," said Martin, who believes the accident-free race he won last year at Talladega was a fluke. "That might have been the case when they were running unrestricted here at 190. It's surely the case now that they're running restricted at 190 and really want to go 230."
Lynch does not know if the track was built to handle a specific maximum speed. He does know, however, that the 2.66-mile layout is not going anywhere. In fact, they keep adding seats, a sure message for drivers to get used to the idea of coming back despite the hazards.
"As a driver, to finish a restrictor-plate race is a bonus," Labonte said. "To win one is even more of a bonus."
Those thoughts were shared by Winston Cup points leader Rusty Wallace, who finished 12th, but avoided the crash and seemed only slightly less satisfied than the winner.
"I guess it's inevitable when you're running that close with the speeds we're running," he said. "There's a lot to be said just for surviving."
Olympic track stars could race as part of Goodwill Games
Michael Johnson demands track and strong competition
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — The ballyhooed match race between Michael Johnson and Donovan Bailey, which proved a bust last year, could be held again this summer as part of the Good will Games in New York.
Harvey Schiller, president of Turner Sports, which will televisie the Goodwill Games, said there was a good possibility of a rematch of the 150-meter showdown at Toronto, where Johnson pulled up injured after 70 meters.
Schiller said while there are
many details to be arranged, the race could be set in a few weeks.
"Both are competitive people and they like the excitement of it," Schiller said. "I don't think there's a downside. Both are running very fast."
Johnson is the 1996 Olympic 200-meter and 400-meter champion and 200-meter world record-holder. Bailey is the 1996 gold medalist in the 100-meter and world record-holder.
The track and field portion of the Goodwill Games will be held from July 19 to July 22 in Long Island, with Johnson trying to duplicate his Olympic double in the 200-meter and 400-meter and Bailey running in the 100-meter. Schiller said the rematch probably would be held near Aug. 2 and the end of the games.
He said Mitchel Field in Long
Island and Times Square were being considered as sites.
Brad Hunt, Johnson's agent, and Ray Flynn, Bailey's agent, are enthusiastic about the rematch, with the logical distance again 150 meters.
Hunt, however, said Johnson would not consider a two-man race nor a race on a temporary track.
"If they want to put on a race, he would have to have the best guys in the world, about four or five, or even fill the (eight) lanes," Hunt said.
"How can you have a race without Ato Boldon, Maurice Greene or Frankie Fredericks? If they want a race at this point in time that has meaning, you have to include those guys. If it's two men, it's two men other than Michael Johnson."
Boldon is the world 200 champion and has run the 100 this year in
9.86 seconds,
only .02 seconds off Bailey's record of
9.84 set at
A t l a n t a.
Greene won
the world 100-meter title last year, also at
9.86, and Fredericks was ranked No. 1 in the world in the 100-meter in 1997.

Johnson: Might compete for the right money, location, competitors
"Michael needs all the legitimacy of a real track," Hunt said.
He said Johnson would not compete on a temporary surface over a road or on concrete.
"I would like to see anything happen that TV embraces and showcases track and field," Hunt added.
"Last year's race delivered higher ratings than most sports events."
ratings than most. Flynn said Bailey would be absolutely agreeable to a rematch if the money is right.
Last year, Johnson and Bailey were guaranteed $500,000 apiece, with the winner at SkyDome getting an additional $1 million. A Toronto developer, Edward Cogan, had to step in at the last minute to rescue the race billed as the One to One Challenge of Champions after the meet promoter failed to produce enough money.
"I think the Goodwill Games would be a great podium to do the rematch," Flynn said. "It would stir up a lot of interest. It caught everyone's attention even though there was criticism because Michael pulled up and that was the worst thing that could have happened.
Goodwill Games representative Mike Lewellen emphasized that such elements as money, location and competitors must be in place before the race can go forward.
He said the athletes would have to be paid at least as much as they were in Toronto. He added that the Long Island venue would make the most sense from a purely running standpoint but a straightaway dash — unlike the curve in Toronto — in Times Square in Manhattan would be more exciting.
"But I think we would have a terrific race with the two biggest names in track and field. It would be the right matchup to put the global stamp on these games."
"So if we don't solve all the variables, it won't happen," he said.

Cardinals player is a surprise hit
Red Bird manager rates DeShields as best batter in league
The Associated Press
ST. LOUIS — The guy batting ahead of Mark McGwire in the St. Louis Cardinals' lineup is having almost as big a year.
It's probably no coincidence that Delino DeShields, fourth in the league with a .388 average, has never had a faster start.
"I am getting maybe another fastball here and there," DeShields said. "I'm just saying, base hit or walk, just get the big guy up to the plate."
Last April. DeShields batted 200.
"I can't remember ever hitting .300 in April," DeShields said. "But nobody's going to remember April in July and August when we're coming down the stretch, so I'm just taking it in stride."
tied for first in doubles.
with four triples, all in the last six games. He leads the Cardinals in hits and steals and is tied, for sure.
ST LOUIS
CARDINALS
This April he leads the league
In the last seven games, he has 13-for-24 with five runs scored and
four RBIs. In short, he's been an ideal table-setter for McGwire, who has 10 home runs and was second in the league with 32 RBIs.
"They don't want to walk me, but a lot of times I'm just thinking 'Get my pitch to hit,' DeShields said. "I'm in a good spot, and I'm just trying to make the most of it."
DeShields is so good offensively that manager Tony La Russa rates him the best in the league.
"Who's better?" La Russa said.
"I've got him to ups. He's really got a live bat, an extra-base bat and great legs. He's showing his
Expos manager Felipe Alou,
who managed DeShields in 1992
and 1993, doesn't disagree with
La Russa.
smarts, taking advantage of hitting in front of the big fellow."
"He's become a very good offensive player," Alou said. "Most people look at Craig Biggio as the premier second baseman, but there's room at the top for Delino as well."
DeShields was the leadoff hitter last year but has switched places with Royce Clayton. The only possible downside to this is that his steals could go down. He stole 55 last year and has seven thus far in 11 attempts.
"Yeah, this is going to be a different year as far as stolen bases go," DeShields said. "Like I'm telling Royce, stolen bases are not really the most important thing with McGwire and Ray (Lankford) coming up."
Doing his homework has helped DeShields at the plate. His three-run triple against Montreal Expos ace Carlos Perez in the seventh inning of Monday's game, a hit that broke
open a 1-0 game, was a case in point.
"You have to know that a guy is trying to do to you out there." DeShields said. "I've got a book myself, and he pitches me the same way pretty much every time."
The book is still a work in progress on defense, where DeShields has been inconsistent at best. At times, like the occasion where he fielded a possible double play ball but hesitated and then threw late to first, costing the Cardinals a game against the Padres, indecisiveness has hurt him. Other times, his glove has been at fault.
DeShields knows he has to work a lot harder on that area of his game, although he says he feels comfortable fielding.
"That's the part of the game I feel like I can help this team the most, if I turn it up defensively," DeShields said. "I feel I'm going to get my hits.
"If I can take a hit away here and there and make a big play, it's going to help us in the long run."
Swimmer fights charges of drug test tampering
DUBLIN, Ireland — Triple Olympic gold medalist Michelle Smith, again the focus of drug accusations, defiantly denied tampering with a urine sample that may have shown signs of a banned substance.
The Associated Press
The Irish swimmer, whose success at the Atlanta Games was tainted by rumors of drug-taking although she has never tested positive, vowed yesterday to fight the latest charges.
"I have no intention of taking this lying down and I have no intention of being bullied by any organization — national or international," Smith said during a news conference yesterday.
"I am innocent of these charges, I am appalled at the manner in which they have been leaked into the public domain and I intend to fully defend them, if necessary,
all to the way to the International Sports Court in Switzerland," she said.
After reading her statement she declined to answer questions.
FINA, the international swimming federation, said Smith was being investigated for possible manipulation of an out-of-competition drug test taken at her home in Kilkenny, Ireland, on Jan. 10. The world championships were held in Perth, Australia, at that time, but Smith skipped them, citing injuries.
FINA honorary secretary Gunner Werner said in Sydney, Australia, no drugs were found in the sample, although it did contain "something special." He did not elaborate.
Werner said Smith had 14 days to respond and could request a test on the B sample, taken at the same time as the disputed A sample.
He would not elaborate on the manner of the alleged tampering but said it was the first such case he knew of in international swimming.
If found guilty of tampering, Smith could face a suspension or even a lifetime ban.
At the Atlanta Olympics, Smith won gold medals in the 400-meter freestyle, 200 individual medley and 400 individual medley, and a bronze in the 200 butterfly. Swimmers from other nations, including American star Janet Evans, raised suspicions about Smith, who rose to prominence despite coming from a country that does not have an Olympic-sized pool.
Last August, Smith captured two gold and two silver medals at the European Swimming Championships in Seville, Spain.
Although FINA made no mention of any drugs being found in the sample, Smith said the labora
tory analysis mentioned the presence of "some metabolic precursor of testosterone."
Smith was flanked at the news conference by her lawyer, Peter Lennon, and her husband, Erik De Bruin. A former discus thrower and shot putter, De Bruin served a four-year ban after testing positive for testosterone.
She said the results of the lab test showed a considerable drop in specific gravity, a measure of density, compared to when the sample was tested before it left her home. FINA said that suggested tampering.
Lennon said if the sample had been tampered with, it must have been after it had been taken from Smith's home.
"We want to know how the test was carried out, in what temperature and what happened to the sample after it left her home," he said.
Nomo finds stride first career homer
The Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — The stoic look didn't stand a chance. Hideo Nomo, a 128 hitter, broke into a grin as he rounded third base. Finally, he had a home run
in the major leagues.
THE PHOTO IS IN THE CROP
FROM THIS EDITION.
"That's the first time I've seen him smile on the field in a long time," said Dodgers caterer Mike Piazza.
Nomo: Glad for sola home run, but concentrating on arm
in the left-field bullpen. The solo homer capped a six-run rally in the seventh inning that gave Los Angeles a 6-3 victory over the Milwaukee Brewers.
"He never hit it that far," Dodgers outfielder Raul Mondesi said. "Everybody was surprised."
Added manager Bill Russell:
"He always said he wanted to hit a home run in the major leagues. He kept his bat, took it out of the bat rack. It was nice to see a smile on his face."
Nomo liked his work with the bat, but knows full well that it is his arm that is important.
"I was very happy about the home run," he said through an interpreter. "But my goal is every game to go out and throw nine innings. As a pitcher, all I can do is go out and hold the team down, and that's what I did tonight."
Nomo has come back from the shortest outing of his big-league career with two complete games. He wasn't smiling 10 days earlier after lasting only two-thirds of an inning at Chicago and allowing three hits, five walks and eight runs.
"What happened in Chicago, I don't know what that was,"
Piazza said. "He's put that behind him."
He sure has. Nomo (2-3) pitched a three-hitter at Milwaukee last Thursday but lost to Mercedes and the Brewers 2-1. He was even better Tuesday night, pitching another three-hitter while walking two and striking out 11.
"He made the adjustments after that start in Chicago," Russell said. "He's throwing strikes, he's getting that split-finger over."
The complete games are the only two recorded by Los Angeles pitchers this year.
Russell said the home run was no fluke. However, he added, Nomo just happened to swing right where Mercedes threw the fastball.
"He does it in batting practice all the time, he can hit it that far," Russell said. "He was bailing and whaling. (Mercedes) threw it there, right in his swing."
Nomo has 28 hits in 219 big-league at-bats. He was hitless in eight at-bats this season before connecting with Mercedes' pitch.
His homer knocked out Mercedes (2-1) and came two batters after rookie Matt Luke hit a three-run homer — the second of his career — to give the Dodgers a 5-1 lead.
"It wasn't a lucky hit," Mercedes said. "He swung hard, he got it and there's nothing we can do about it. You don't think a pitcher can hit the ball like that."
Jeromy Burnitz, the only Milwaukee baserunner in the first six innings, led off the second by hitting his eighth homer to give the Brewers a 1-1 lead.
Nomo then retired 15 straight batters before Jeff Cirillo singled to start the seventh. Fernando Vina then walked on four pitches before Nomo struck out Burnitz, Marquis Grissom and Geoff Jenkins to end the inning.
"That was the turning point of the game," Piazza said. "Nomo) threw some very impressive pitches in that inning."

The gestures are even, the series is not.
A little more than 4 minutes remained in Tuesday night's Heat-Knicks opening-round playoff game when Miami's Eric Murdock
Hostility underscores Heat-Knicks matchup

Players gesture bump and slap in NBA Playoffs
Associated Press Sports Writer
By Jim Litke
The gesture was premature New York
MIAMI HEAT
made one last run and whittled that 9-point lead to 87-83 with 55.9 seconds left. But Murdock could barely contain himself. He was in that much of a hurry to pay back Chris Childs for the same kind of symbolic throat-slashing the Knicks guard performed after he made a big shot in the closing moments of New York's win in Game 2.
"It was something that was stupid. I shouldn't have done it," Murdock said after Miami won 91-85 and claimed a 2-1 edge in the best-of-5 series.
"I got caught up in the emotions of the game, and it was something that just happened, and I'm sorry it was caught on tape," he said.
Maybe he couldn't help himself. Plenty of fans, however, could be forgiven for assuming the gesture was intended for them. Because that, no doubt, is how a very large number of them felt after investing nearly three hours in a basketball game that only the most disaffected hockey fans would have found
entertaining.
PETER SCHNEIDER
Before the Heat and Knicks were through, there was more whistling inside Madison Square Garden than at an outside construction site in midtown Manhattan in a week. In between, there
Riley; Seems to prefer a rougher version of basketball
was an almost endless sequence of pushing, shoving, clutching, grabbing, hacking, slapping, bumping and grinding — 61 fouls in all, nearly split down the middle.
Maybe a tough town needs a tough team — New Yorkers excuse what the Knicks play as "city ball." And so maybe Miami had no choice but to play tough, too. But maybe not. In fact, not even close.
The common denominator, of course, is Pat Riley, who coached in New York before fleeing to Miami, the same Pat Riley who figured out soon after leaving Los Angeles and "Showtime" behind that his future as a coach would depend as much on terror as talent.
The artist that lurks in every NBA coach would love to have a team that plays with brilliance on both ends of the court. But the pragmatist that resides within every coach also recognizes the talent that enables a team to do that—a Magic Johnson, whom Riley coached in L.A., or a Michael Jordan or Larry Bird — is in very, very short supply.
And so what Riley set out to do, first in New York and later in Miami, was fill out his roster with whatever bruisers and hulks, bouncers and punks he could find, then tell them every opposing player who drives the lane threatens their manhood.
A New Yorker who watched the resulting pinball game in the paint
Tuesday night said it reminded him of something former Boston Celtics center Bill Russell used to say. Russell was one of the best defenders ever and never shied away from physical play. But he always made an important distinction: Contact was a part of basketball, but the collisions were the point of football.
That distinction appears wasted on Riley, not to mention Knicks coach Jeff Van Gundy who, after all, apprenticed with the master during his stay in New York. Both seem to prefer a kind of NASCAR on sneakers to basketball. And so the inevitable crackup came to pass in last year's playoff, when New York's Charlie Ward and Miami's P.J. Brown touched off a melee that led to five Knicks being suspended over two games and the Heat coming back to win the series.
That's what accounts for the hostility that seethes just below the surface every time these teams meet, let alone in the supercharged atmosphere of Madison Square Garden at playoff time. All that colliding may produce close games thick with tension and drama. But speed and grace and athletic ability, when they show up, almost seems like a coincidence. The rest of the time, the most compelling reason to watch is to see whether the big wipeout takes place and who gets caught up in it.
That's the appeal of auto racing, not basketball. But that's what the Heat and Knicks are selling. Anybody who doubts that should have been in the locker room Tuesday night when Miami guard Tim Hardaway, a good guy and one of the few real talents on either team, got caught up in the act.
Told about Murdock's mock throat-slashing, Hardaway replied,
"He did that?"
But instead of disgust, there was only admiration in his voice.
"Shoot, I wanted to do that," Hardaway said. "I'll do it Thursday."

Jordan's 38 ends Nets' run
The Associated Press
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. —Bring on the next victim. Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls are back in championship form.
Jordan and the Bulls made sure the New Jersey Nets ended their first playoff appearance in four years with nothing more than a little respect by posting yet another first-round sweep.
Jordan hit 15 of his first 18 shots and scored 38 points yesterday night as the Bulls ended the best-of-five series with a 116-101 victory against the upstart but injured Nets.
"When I am in that kind of rhythm it really doesn't matter. And I felt that early on in the game," Jordan said. "When I took my first three, I knew I was on."
The first-round sweep was the third straight for the two-time defending NBA champions, and it gave them a 24-1 record in the opening round.
"We knew their backs were to the wall, and we just took it to them," Jordan said. "It's important to get it over with quick. It gives us a chance to get ready."
The Bulls will play either Charlotte or Atlanta in the second round. The Hornets lead the series 2-1 with Game 4 at Atlanta tonight.
"Weain't going nowhere, no time soon," said Bulls guard Ron Harper. "Everybody is saying how old we are, and that weaint going

Scott Burrell supported Jordan by hitting nine of 11 shots from the field and scoring 23 points, including 11
in the third quarter when Chicago opened a 93-76 lead. Dennis Rodman added 17 rebounds as Chicago outrebounded New Jersey 35-21, limiting New Jersey to 10 boards in the first 36 minutes.
"We competed; we played hard. We can walk away from this with our heads high," Nets forward Chris Gatling said. "We lost to the better team."
Sherman Douglas, again filling in for the injured Sam Cassell, led the Nets with 19 points. Gatling and Keith Van Horn each had 18, and Kendall Gill had 17 for New Jersey, which lost despite out-shooting Chicago from the field, 60 percent to 56 percent.
The Nets had rallied from big deficits and made the Bulls struggle in the first two games in Chicago, and they thought that playing before a home crowd would make a difference.
It didn't, even though the fans

booed Jordan and his team more than they had in the past.
On the court, nothing changed, and the Nets' problems were compounded by Jordan's sizzling shooting. He opened with a three-point basket and then proceeded to sink one jumper after another, most of the time with a defender not too far away. He finished 16-of-22 from the field.
Both teams shots about 65 percent in the opening half, but the Bulls opened a 61-52 lead. Chicago broke the game open midway through the third quarter with a 14-6 spurt that included nine
straight by Burrell.
The Nets made one desperate run in the fourth quarter, closing to 97-85.
However, Jordan made several fakes on Kerry Kitties on the left wing and hit another jumper. As the crowd groaned, Jordan put his finger to his lips and mouthed "shhhh."
"Michael Jordan was on fire, and whenever we made a run, he seemed to make a three or hit a couple of big baskets," Van Horn said. "He was in a zone. It didn't matter who we threw at him. He was going to score."
Spurs cool Suns' heat in playoffs
The Associated Press
SAN ANTONIO — Once again, the San Antonio Spurs relied on a one-two punch to knock out the opposition. Only this time, the players weren't David Robinson and Tim Duncan.
Avery Johnson continued his sizzling playoff run with a career-high 30 points, and Chuck Person's three-point shooting helped ignite a decisive second-half surge as the Spurs defeated Phoenix 99-80 Wednesday night to win their opening-round series 3-1.
"We couldn't get anything going until Avery and Chuck stepped up," said Robinson, who finished with 15 points and 21 rebounds but shot only three-of-12 from the field.
Johnson and Person came through on a night when San Antonio stars Robinson and Duncan struggled early against double-teams.
SAN ANTONIO
SPURS
Duncan, the NBA's rookie of the year,
had only 11 points and five
rebounds for the Spurs, who pulled away from a 50-50 tie late in the third quarter.
But Johnson, who averaged 20 points in the series after scoring only 10 points per game in the regular season, scored nine points during a 29-6 surge that put the Spurs ahead 79-56 with 6:53 left.
"They are a dangerous team, and I didn't want to go back to Phoenix, even if they do have a nice restaurant connected to the hotel," Johnson said.
Person, who averaged only 6.7 points during the regular season, hit three three-pointers during the key run and finished with 18 points. Overall, he was six-of-eight from three-point range.
"They are a dangerous team, and I didn't want to go back to Phoenix, even if they do have a nice restaurant connected to the hotel."

"Obviously, I've slowed down a lot because my back has been a problem," Person said, referring to back surgery he had 18 months ago. "But coach has been limiting my minutes, and I was fresh tonight."
The Spurs led by only seven points entering the fourth quarter, but they opened the final period with a 17-1 run to break the game open.
"We had a good season, but we should have been more competitive in this series," said Suns guard Jason Kidd, who finished with 12 points.
With the Suns trailing 81-57 with 5:06 remaining, Phoenix guard Steve Nash committed a hard foul on Johnson, who then walked up to Nash and bumped chests. Players from both teams then started pushing and shoving each other before they were separated.
Kevin Johnson led the Suns with 18 points. Nash, who started in place of injured Rex Chapman, finished with 13 points after four-of-13 shooting.
Johnson, Duncan and Antonio McDyess of the Suns each got technical fouls.
"Going into the season, if you would have told me that we would be the fourth seed for the playoffs, I would have been very pleased." Suns coach Danny Ainge said. "Unfortunately, we didn't play well against the Spurs."
San Antonio will play the winner of the Utah-Houston series in the second round.
Knicks will face Miami without Patrick Ewing
Fractured wrist will keep player out of Game 4,5
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Patrick Ewing will not, repeat, will not be playing for the New York Knicks as they face elimination by the Miami Heat.
Not in Game 4 and not in Game 5, according to the Knicks.
"Again, I don't know how much I can say this. He's not playing in this series. I'm not sure why no one will accept that answer," coach Jeff Van Gundy said yesterday after the Knicks went through what might have been their final practice of the season on the eve of tonight's Game 4.
Ewing, who severely fractured his right wrist in late December, has been practicing with the team but has not been given clearance to play by the team's medical staff.
The Knicks have been insisting for almost two weeks that Ewing will not be available for the first round, yet fans have kept their hopes up, perhaps wishing for a recreated Willis Reed moment.
Reed provided the franchise with perhaps its most memorable moment by hobbling out of the tunnel for the start of Game 7 of the 1970 NBA Finals and scoring the first two baskets, spurring the Knicks to the championship.
Before this first-round series began, even Miami coach Pat Riley said he expected Ewing to play. He acknowledged yesterday that a return by Ewing was "unlikely, but you've got to be ready for it."
Ewing offered no comment yesterday other than to say: "Ask Dr. Scott."
That would be team physician Norman Scott, who has said he would not clear Ewing to play until he has regained nearly 100 percent of his strength and range of motion, making it look to some like the Knicks are more interested in protecting their $68 million investment than winning.
"The doctors have the best interests of the player at heart, so I don't know about any conspiracy to save money." Van Gundy said.
"We don't want him to fall on that wrist and re-injure it so that he couldn't play next year," forward Buck Williams said. "Once
he can handle a fall, I'm sure he'll play."
As far as Van Gundy is concerned, what the Knicks really need is someone coming out of the tunnel who can defend Voshon Lenard.
The Miami shooting guard scored 25 and 28 points in Games 2 and 3, respectively, negating New York's ability to limit the production of Alonzo Mourning and Tim Hardaway.
"There's only one two-guard that's ever hurt us in back-to-back games as much as Voshon Lenard did, and that's Michael Jordan," Van Gundy said. "Reggie Miller? Never two games in a row. But this guy, two games in a row he's looked square in the eye and said, 'I'll take any one of you any time I want', and he has."
Van Gundy also needs his entire team to come out of the tunnel and play tough defense and intelligent offense, unlike Game 3 when it blew numerous opportunities down the stretch to reduce its deficit below four points.
The Knicks' No. 1 offensive option, Allan Houston, scored 18 points in the first quarter but shot 0-for-6 in a scoreless fourth. Option No. 2, Larry Johnson, fumbled the ball in the final minutes against a collapsing triple-team, causing a jump ball that Miami controlled.
"We played frantic and frustrated instead of intense and intelligent," Van Gundy said. "Voson Lenard let us know during the game that he was busting our butts, and so did Eric Murdock. And you know what, they did. So they had every right to talk. We didn't guard them one time, and they shot layups unimpeded."
John Starks missed practice yesterday to be with his ailing grandmother, but he was expected to be in uniform for Game 4. He is one of the players who will be asked to stop Lenard, and journeyman forward Anthony Bowie also could draw the assignment.
Miami likely will stick with Jamal Mashburn in the starting lineup instead of the injured Dan Majleer.
Chris Dudley probably will start at center for the second straight game, and Terry Cummings, despite spraining a toe Tuesday, will be available as his backup.
"It's obvious we want to close it out," Riley said. "It's also obvious the team most desperate has won each game. Is it their turn to have the edge? We have to ask that question."
