Its worldwide popularity allows Spencer Museum to collect thousands of dollars in royalties each year. Story by Laura Roddy · Photos of pinups by Roger Nomer They make a pilgrimage to the University of Kansas Spencer Museum of Art every summer and trickle in throughout the rest of the year. Pilgrims pore over a little-known museum collection, leafing through remnants of a bygone era. One peruser sports girlie tattoos, another, an embroidered girlie bomber jacket. They are peeking at pinups. Considered girlie art by some and classic Americana by others Consi and classic A. the Univers of idealiz of w sh h p the University's collection of idealized watercolors nized watercolors clad in sheer clothing and high heels was painted by the likes of Alberto Vargas and George Petty. They once graced the pages of *Esquire* magazine. Called Petty Girls and Varga Girls, the pinups became American icons during World War II, their images tacked up on barrack walls and copied onto airplanes, tanks and boats for good luck. Even the U. S. Treasury Department once used a Varga Girl on war bond posters. One of the collection's most famous images is the Memphis Belle. In fact, the aircraft that bore the name and image of Petty's Memphis Belle was immortalized on the silver screen twice. The first film was a 1944 documentary, and the second was a 1990 Hollywood movie. But the only way to view the University's Memphis Belle and the rest of the pinups is to make an appointment with Spencer Museum. In more than 17 years since their arrival, the pinups never have been exhibited formally and rarely have been displayed for public viewing. The pinups are tucked away in flat files, covered by acid-free paper at a temperature-regulated room in the museum. Still others are locked in Fraser Hall's attic, a dry, dark and somewhat dusty hideaway. But while it is difficult for the public to see this popular art at the University of Kansas, art dealers in San Francisco are cashing in on reproductions of the University's collection. The University does make some money on the Vargas pinups. It receives royalties from sales of Varga Girl images at the San Francisco Art Exchange. Andrea Norris, director of the museum, said that she was not willing to disclose the specific amount that the University received but that it was between $3,000 and $60,000 per year. "We don't depend on it to survive, but it certainly helps." Norris said. The pinups are part of the University's Esquire collection, more than 16,000 pieces acquired by the University in December 1980 after Esquire Inc. had contacted Lee Young about the donation. Young, professor emeritus of journalism, said the University ended up with one of the largest pinup collections in the United States because of its designation as the official repository for the Magazine Publishers Association. The entire collection was sorted and cataloged, and about 800 pieces were separated for storage at the museum. Of the 800, about 175 are pinups, many of which are Varga Girls, said Steve Goddard, curator of prints and drawings at the museum. Because of limited space at the museum, the remainder of the collection has been boxed up in Fraser's attic. "The stuff has been sitting for 20 years," said Carol Holstead, associate professor of journalism. "While we have taken out the 'really good stuff,' this is a really deep collection." Sharon Bass, associate professor of journalism, called the collection in Fraser a hidden treasure trove. She has brought students up the eight stories to see it firsthand. Naked bulbs in a slanted ceiling shed light on two rows of cardboard boxes stacked three and a half feet high and about 70 feet long. The boxes are askew, and some artwork is lying out in the open not far from old psychology department files. "It is not much of a place for scholarship," Bass said. "When I first saw the collection, boxes weren't open. Dust is now getting inside." The boxes contain original photographs, line drawings, oil paintings, watercolors and cartoons by various artists. There is more than artistic value involved, too. There are thousands of dollars involved in reproducing some of the works, and the University's rights are cloudy in some cases. Young said there were some concerns about who owned the right to reproduce the art. In the case of Vargas, the Univer- In the case of Vargas, the university clearly has the ownership rights and the San Francisco Art Exchange has the reproduction rights, Goddard said. Sales of Vargas paintings, drawings and prints at the San Francisco Art Exchange are approaching $13 million, said James Hartley, Art Exchange director.

On CAMPUS: In the NATION: A Topeka student's threats are taken seriously in the wake of school violence across the country. President Clinton tries to steer the focus away from controversy at his first press conference of the year. The producers of The Jerry Springer Show agree to edit out the fights, the chair-throwing and all the other violence on the nation's top-rated daytime talk-show. CAMPUS Memorial Corporation will meet tomorrow The University of Kansas Memorial Corporation will conduct a board of directors meeting from 10 a.m. to noon tomorrow at the Malott Room in the Kansas Union. The non-profit corporation operates the business of the Burge and Kansas Unions and oversees the operations of food services, concessions, KU Bookstores, the Jay bowl and Student Union Activities. "We are going to discuss how we're going to achieve the budget of the various areas that we manage," said Jim Long, director of the Kansas Union. During tomorrow's meeting, the board will discuss how it will allocate its $14 million budget for next year. The meeting also will feature the annual reports of the corporation's many committees, such as Student Union Activities, fiscal and financial force, program concepts and scholarships. Long said. Even though the board of directors meets only three to four times a year, its various committees meet throughout the year. There are 25 members on the board of directors, including students, alumni and faculty and staff of the University. Selection for board happens on the basis of appointment and sorting by position, Long said. — Marcelo Vilela STATE Topeka student's anger draws serious response TOPEKA — The teacher had just broken up a gym class scuffle when one steaming 13-year-old blurted out a threat to kill any kid who came near him. Official reaction was swift. Topeka school police and the school dist trict psychologist sat him down for a grilling, and officers questioned his mother at home to make sure no guns were handy. How times have changed. Had the student mouthed off a couple years ago, said principal Steve Roberts, he likely would have gotten off with a hallway lecture. Across the country, edgy educators like Roberts are paying closer attention to student threats of violence, and kids who menace others increasingly risk suspension, expulsion or even arrest. It's part of the fallout from Pearl, Miss.; West Paducah, Ky.; Jonesboro, Ark., and Edinboro, Pa. "These aren't 'just kids,' and these aren't just idle threats," said Jim Gilchrist, security director for Topeka schools. "You have to pay attention," Roberts said. "Four incidents involving 11 deaths and 25 wounded — that's a lot." Topeka school police determined the boy hadn't understood the implications of his angry outburst, and Roberts and the mother agreed to keep their eyes on him. He was not arrested. But last month in Forestview Cove, Ky., a high school senior was arrested after threatening to kill his baseball coach for not putting him in the starting lineup. "I didn't intend to do anything like I said," Grant Gagnon, 18, told reporters as he handcuffed. "He won't play me. This stuff about killing him — I was just joking." Schools aren't laughing. cans who are increasingly attacking his integrity. In his first formal news conference of the year, Clinton barely concealed his ire for Kenneth Starr but said he would not order Attorney General Janet Reno to fire the Whitewater prosecutor. "That would not be the appropriate thing for me to do." Clinton sai NATION PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES Clinton ducks controversy while focusing on issues WASHINGTON — President Clinton said today that his legal troubles were distracting, but he promised to work with Republi- Clinton: conceals anger at Starr at news conference House Speaker Newt Gingrich, who has dramatically increased his criticism of Clinton in recent days, said Clinton should either fire Starr or order his aides to stop attacking the prosecutor. Though reporters focused their questions on controversy, Clinton was able to turn the subject to domestic and foreign policy at times during the 55-minute session. The president said he'd rather not comment on the booming stock market but went on to say he hoped the market would remain stable. "I'd rather it be coming up than down." he said. Clinton said he decided against seeking federal money for needle exchange programs to keep drug addicts from getting AIDS because the benefits are uncertain and he didn't want to imply the government supported drug use. On foreign affairs, he urged the Senate to approve a treaty expanding the NATO alliance toward Russia's frontier, welcoming the bipartisan action that had the treaty on the brink of ratification. The agreement came after a meeting with community activists in Chicago who staged a Springer boycott and denounced his fists-flying program as a pornographic slutfest. the other violence on the nation's toprated daytime talk-show. "It's a wake-up for television," the Rev. Michael Pfliger said after meeting for 2 1/2 hours with Springer executives and management at Fox Broadcasting's WFLD-TV in Chicago. "This kind of trash television has got to go." The agreement comes after a tumultuous week for the show. Former guests said they were coached and the fights staged. The show was dropped by NBC's Chicago affiliate because of its tawdiness. WFLD quickly picked it up but also became the target of Pfliger's boycott. And the show's producers ordered Springer to tone down the violence. Springer show producers agree to erase violence CHICAGO — The producers of The Jerry Springer Show agreed yesterday to edit out the fistflights, the chair-throwing and all Now, the violence will vanish completely, Studios USA Network, the show's producer and distributor, said in a statement. Pflager said producers also agreed to edit out fights in shows that have already been filmed but not aired — leaving some to predict Springer viewers will be watching an hour of blank television screens. "I don't know what's going to be left," laughed media analyst and talk-show researcher Chris Ryan. In its early years, the 7-year-old show actually focused on talk, and violence seasoned the program, Ryan said. "Now it's the whole meat of the show," he said.

Kids First Cafe lack volunteers By Melissa Ngo mngo @kansan.com Kansan staff writer The Center for Community Outreach needs volunteers. Students who are staying in Lawrence this summer can spend their free time volunteering to feed the needy. The center is coordinating two free meal programs. The first, Jubilee Cafe, began three and a half years ago. Jubilee Cafe needs volunteers to serve food from 6 to 9 a.m. Tuesdays and Fridays at Trinity Episcopal Church, 1011 Vermont St. Jamie Najim, center co-director, said the cafe was having a problem getting volunteers during final exams and during the summer. "We usually have about 150 volunteers, but the numbers are dropping off and since we added another day, we need people." Nailim said. She said the center's members had decided two weeks ago to also serve food on Friday because they had seen a large growth in the number of people who came to the cafe during the last six months. "Jubilee Cafe really opens your eyes to the hunger and homelessness in Lawrence," Najim said. "When you live in Lawrence you don't think there are these problems, but you realize the problems are there when you see people waiting in line for food." E. J. Reedy, Topea freshman, has volunteered at Jubilee Cafe this year. "You get to sit down, eat a meal with the people you're helping and talk to them." Reedy said. "You see how much it really means to them, and you learn that every volunteer receives just as much as he or she gives." Another volunteer opportunity is the Kids First summer program the center organizes in conjunction with the Lawrence Department of Parks and Recreational Services and Lawrence Food Services. This is the second year for Kids First. Kids First needs volunteers to serve food to children from noon to 1 p.m. weekdays at South Park, 1141 Massachusetts St.; Centenary United Methodist Church, 245 N. Fourth St.; and East Lawrence Recreation Center, 1245 E. 15th St. Volunteers are needed from 12:30 to 1:30 p.m. at the Boys and Girls Club, 1520 Haskell Ave. "We're not asking for people to work every day, just when they can," Najim said. "We need to make sure that the kids are fed a meal they might not normally get." For more information call next year's center co-directors Chris Heck and Erika Nutt at 864-4073.

Friday, May 1, 1998 The University Daily Kansan Section A·Page 3 Senate to change its listserv Executive staff makes the call on alterations By Melissa Ngomngo @kansan.com Kansas staff writer The Student Senate executive staff will decide today how the Senate listserv will change on Stop Day. The listserv changes will be decided at the Senate executive board meeting at 3:30 p.m. in the Senate office at the Kansas Union. The meeting is not open to the public. The Senate listserv, located at senate1@graven.cc.ukans.edu, began this year and allows for announcements and discussions. Scott Kaiser, student body vicepresident and listserv moderator, said there had been complaints about the listserv, and he wanted to change the listserv to accommodate more people. Kaiser has suggested some changes to the listserv. One would be to discontinue the current listserv and create two listservs, one for posting Senate meeting times and reports and the other for discussion and posts by student organizations. Another suggestion is to keep the listserv for discussion and create links to student organizations on the Senate Web page with an events and meetings bulletin board for student organizations. A third suggestion is to move the discussion from the listserv to the Senate Web page chat room. The Senate Web page is located at www.ukans.edu/~senate. Kaiser said they also could merge parts of the suggested changes. Matt Bachand, former off-campus senator, had two problems with changing the listserv. The first was the process. However, some students object to changing the listserv. "Senate as a whole should make the decisions, not the executive staff, which is only a small part of the listserv membership," Bacchand said. He said separate listservs for discussion and announcements should not be created. "When you create multiple lists for different types of information, you're saying that some information is more important than others," he said. "Anything that students think is important to Senate should be viewed by everyone." Other complaints about the listserv concern rules set up by former student body vice-president The rules set by Walden were that there be no profanity, no personal attacks against others and no discussion of Senate elections or coalitions. Mike Walden. Walden removed one person for repeated violations and another voluntarily unsubscribed from the listserv after committing a violation. Walden said the listserv needed to be changed and changing the listserv to an informational format for announcements would be better. "I think it turns off a lot of potential subscribers when they have to receive 40 e-mails in one day from the Senate listserv." "Walden said. Another issue concerning the listserv is subscribers being involuntarily unsubscribed. Kaiser said that on Tuesday between 2 and 4 p.m. someone attempted to unsubscribe eight people from the listserv. Kaiser said the identity of the person was unknown and only that the person had tried to do it on a public computer in the Senate office. On the Senate Web page there is an area for visitors to put in their names and e-mail addresses. A visitor could then choose whether to unsubscribe to the listserv. The unsubscribe option has been removed. Kansas: On the Rhodes again? The University of Kansas will take five shots at obtaining its first Rhodes Scholar since 1993. Mary Klayder, director of the honors program, said the University had determined its five nominees for the latest round of Rhodes scholarships. Joshua Dimmick, Rong Chen, Anna VanCleave, Micah Hanson and Jennifer Kimball all were chosen because of their excellence in studies at the University, she said. The Rhodes scholarship allows students to study for two years at Oxford University in England, Klayder said. Although the program looks for outstanding students, there is no specific ideal that students must fit. By Gerry Doyle gdoyle@kansan.com Kansas staff writer "It's to reward people who are vigorous of mind and body," she Campus groups that have scheduled meetings on Stop Day, be advised: You are operating outside University of Kansas law, and you could face little or no punishment. Jennifer Kimball, Ulysses senior, said the scholarship was helping shape her ideas about the future. Kimball said that in applying for the scholarship, she got a better idea of what she wanted to do. She said studying at Oxford would help her to focus on her future career. said. "It's people who are academically capable and have good records of grades and service. There's not a single model." you're doing what you're doing. Plus, Oxford has a program in philosophy, politics and economics. I'm interested in the ways they relate to each other." The University's nominees will participate in the state competition in early December, she said. Two people from Kansas will be chosen to compete in the regional competition, which involves seven states and 14 applicants. Four applicants will be selected from each region for the scholarships. University Senate Rules and Regulations state that no University organization shall schedule events or meetings that require student participation during finals or on Stop Day, May 5. By Brandon Coplep bcopple@kansan.com Kansan staff writer "It makes you question ideas about what you want to do," she said. "It's important to know why Rules violated by meetings on Stop Day Joshua Dimmick, Wharton, Texas, junior, said his area of study — genetics — was well-represented at Oxford and the experience he would get there would be nearly unmatched. "There's a lot of work going on over there that I'm really interested in," he said. "It's really important to me. Over there, the quality of education is very high. I want to surround myself with intelligent students." Dimmick, who is also a catcher for the Kansas baseball team, said if a KU student was chosen, it would benefit the student and the University. "It wasn't something I planned on," he said. "It just speaks well of what the University does." The operative word is require, said Carol Holstead, University Calendar Committee chairwoman. She said groups could call meetings, as long as students' attendance was not mandatory. The Calendar Committee may grant exceptions to the rule. Holstead said the Athletics Department had asked for an exception and the committee had granted permission. Order of Omega, a Greek honor society, has scheduled a Stop Day meeting to elect officers for the fall. Mark Whitaker, the group's vice president, said it was difficult to schedule meetings this time of year and Stop Day presented the best alternative. "It's an humor society, so you know everybody's going to be pretty busy," he said. "I was unaware of any rule prohibiting meetings that day." Whitaker said the meeting was not mandatory, and the group had no way of forcing its members to attend. Whitaker and Order of Omega officers may be breaking the rule, but they probably do not need to take any drastic action to avoid the long arm of the law. Holsted said she received calls from students who found out about the rule and wanted to report they had meetings on Stop Dav. "I don't have any police power," she said. "If somebody calls complaining, I'm going to send them to the provost." Carol Prentice, assistant to the provost, said the University had no enforcement mechanism. "There are few hard and fast penalties at a University," she said. "It's a governance rule, and people are expected to abide by it." She said the Provost's Office had received few complaints regarding the rule. Here's Proof That A College Degree Can Really Pay Off. Right Now Recent College Graduates Get $400 Off Every New Dodge.

NIKE® COKE® Clay McCuistion/ KANSAN Editorial University should re-evaluate criteria for corporate contracts As the list of corporate contracts with the University of Kansas grows, we question whether the University knows what is really best for students. The University should consider students' true educational interests when making deals with corporations. The University needs to enhance education rather than cultivate consumerism. The best solution is to have more student involvement and input, and more administrative responsibility in the signing of corporate contracts. Deals with Coke, Nike and Commerce Bank have set a dangerous precedent for corporate involvement at the University. It's inevitable that corporations will be at the University — almost all universities have some corporate funding. But this does not mean that the University must accept irresponsible contracts in which students lose more than they gain or are sold out as consumers to big companies. When the University signed an exclusive contract with Coke last summer, students gained scholarship and program money but lost the privilege of choosing what drinks they could buy on campus. In exchange for a monopoly on the University's beverage sales, Coke agreed to contribute $450,000 each year for scholarships and University programs. The intent of the University was good. But it seemed to think that there was little wrong with selling out students for extra money, and the student input it sought was not adequate. The student body president and vice president were able to give recommendations about the contract but had no final vote on the matter. The University removed students' ability to choose without really asking them what they thought. When the University is making decisions that will More student input, better understanding of students' needs necessary in deal-making For example, the University failed in this responsibility with the Commerce Bank smart cards. Nancy Miles, information technology consultant, said that the University conducted a survey of administrators in the late 1980s asking them whether students would want smart cards. She also said that she did not know of any other student involvement in the decision-making process. A survey — not even of students — conducted 10 years ago should not be the basis for a decision that affects students now. change life on campus, it should make it a priority to get as much student input as possible. Unlike Coke, Commerce is not even paying the University for the privilege of access to student consumers. With the contract, Commerce potentially can increase its Lawrence business by about 25,000 people—the student population of the University—in doing so it can cultivate potential lifetime customers, who often are making serious consumer decisions for the first time in their lives and entering the job market. When students' influence as consumers is sold to the highest bidder, student input is a must. It is the University's responsibility to consider the needs of students. Do smart cards really benefit students? No money is given for scholarships or University programs. It is only a little easier for students to make purchases. In the end, Commerce Bank is the winner. In another instance of corporate affairs, the University's very ideology is at risk. The Athletics Department, which is an independent corporation but receives student money, has an exclusive contract with Nike. The department receives money to fund athletic programs, and in return players wear Nike shoes and clothes. Nike symbols also are placed on Jayhawk memorabilia. The swoosh becomes associated with the University and the Jayhawk. With such a high-profile basketball team, this contract gives Nike a monstrous amount of exposure and advertising. Student Senate alloys $20 per student to the department annually. This amounted to about $500,000 this year and students should have a say in deals of this magnitude. Many KU students, and critics across the country, have raised questions about Nike's actions in its foreign factories. Many people claim that Nike has violated the rights of its workers by overworking them, underpaying them and mistreating them. Such a company should not be an integral part of a University that touts freedom, free thought and personal liberty. Perhaps if students had some involvement in the decision to sign this contract, Nike never would have had a presence at the University. Surely other companies with cleaner records would enjoy such a lucrative contract. A corporate contract probably is necessary to ensure funding for non-revenue sports, like rowing and swimming, but it does not necessarily need to be with Nike. When will the University draw the line? At what point will it consider students' true educational needs and the ideals of the University? These companies are being allowed to prey on the huge consumer base of students at the University, and often the students get little in return. The administration should consider the ramifications of its corporate contracts and the needs of its students before casing its checks. Erinn R.

A cool draft kicked up a patch of dust in front of us and blew a plastic bag across the empty floor Walk in warehouse teaches about respect Perspective The warehouse that stored my family's business for more than 30 years is on the auction block. Potential buyers have proposed dividing up the 130,000 square-foot structure, tearging down parts of it or even demolishing the entire building, parts of which date back to the 1920s. Dave Morntz dmorantz@kansan.com dust that held the building together float to the sky. I'd hate to see the building leave the family. I'd hate even more to see it destroyed and watch the dust that held the building t since before I could walk, my father brought me down to the warehouse with him on Saturday mornings. As I grew older, he allowed me to run and sometimes skateboard up and down the aisles, dodging boxes of styrofoam cups and packing peanuts while he caught up on the week's work in his office. For three summers in high school, I worked full-time at the warehouse, just as my father and his brothers had done. Along with the eight other warehouse workers I slaved, sweated, lifted, grunted and found ways to goof off like only union workers can. My grandfather, great-grandfather and a partner founded the Paper Supply Co. in the late 1940s. Business steadily increased and in the 1960s they moved the company to the old building on Southwest Boulevard. About 20 years ago, my great-grandfather died and four years later my grandfather retired. Much to my father's chagrin, family members decided to sell the business to a regional paper giant while retaining management of the company. A year later, International Paper bought out the regional company and in 1994 merged all the small paper houses in Kansas City, including my family's old business, under one tax-abated roof in Olathe. Although the warehouse has sat empty and silent since then, my father still has a set of keys. We wandered through the building a few weeks ago. The old elevator still works, although the tracks for the wood gates need oiling. The beat up wood planks of the floor shook as the elevator labored to the fourth floor. My father and I then walked around each floor of each part of the building. I laughed when I saw the water line in the truck bay from the flood of 1993. Although the water did no damage to our inventory, the flood destroyed some businesses on the block. When an employee from Boulevard Brewing Company down the street came to the warehouse in search of cleaning supplies, another warehouse worker and I kicked in some boxes of solvent and degreaser and traded them for two cases of beer. Not much got done in the warehouse that day. I pried open a window, brown with dust, and we crawled onto the roof. The Kansas City skyline appeared to tower within arm's reach as the traffic on I-35 flew by below. When I worked there in the summers, I often snuck out on the roof and enjoyed the reprieve the breeze provided from the sweltering heat inside. Our somber tour gave my father and I a chance to recall old memories, although my father kept most of his to himself. When we walked out the front door and latched the bolt, I saw him pause and stare at the key in the lock as if it might be the last chance we would have to see the building. Not many things bother my dad, but the possible demolition of the warehouse does. "Even old things deserve respect," he said as we turned from the door. "Even old things deserve respect."

Amy Rush opinion@kansan.com "That's what I'm here for," I usually reply. What I really want to say is, "A question? Get outta here!" I mean, come on! Do you really think that people usually call to tell us something? Well, it did happen once. Someone called me late one night and played some really groovin' music. Then he told me who was singing and said that I should buy one of the band's CDs. I told him I The questions that we usually answer at KU Info are… well, there really aren't many questions that we usually answer. We get calls about enrollment, library hours, bus stop locations, what beavers eat, whether Marilyn Manson really is Paul from The Wonder Years and sex change operations all in the span of five minutes. In case you were wondering, the answers to the last three questions are: wood, no, Josh Saviano isn't Marilyn Manson, he's in school at Yale and... well, I'm not going to go there, not right now. wound. Too bad I can't remember what the band's name was. By the way, the operator's number is 864-2700 or 0 from a campus phone. I suggest you use them. The callers we KU info staffers encounter are as varied as the questions they ask. Most are from the University or from Lawrence. But some contact us from such exotic locales as One thing we usually never give callers is students' phone numbers. Sometimes you can catch me on a particularly benevolent day, but for the most part, I send you to the operator. And apparently I've trained some of you well. "OK, I know that you don't give out numbers, but the operator is closed..." And the people we talk to during the night shift are a completely different breed from daytime callers. How is it that everyone is "just sittin' around, talkin' with my buddy and was wonderin', . . ." at night? I can't tell you how many trivia questions I have answered in the wee hours. Tokyo, London and Kalamazoo, Mich. Those I people usually are KU graduates. "Oh, I'm so, glad I remembered your number!" they say. "Yeah! Will you hum it for me?" "Hey, do you know that really sad song played in the movie Platoon?" one caller asked. "The orchestral piece!" Now, I warned the guy that I was not known for my melodious singing voice, but hey, I knew it. We played it in my high school orchestra. I started to hum quietly. Then he joined in. It was beautiful. We also have some recurring callers. One question we often are asked is how we find the answers to so many different questions. Do we look everything up on a computer? Do we know it all from memory? One guy asked if we had a little old man sitting in corner, dishing out wisdom. Not quite. Whoever opens on Sunday mornings has to quickly do the crossword puzzle in the *Kansas City Star* for the guy we affectionately call Crossword Puzzle Man. We research questions the old fashioned way. We look things up. More than 200 books. Thousands of Rolodex cards. Walls lined with bulletin boards with events tacked on them. Hundreds of files. Occasionally we use the Internet. Often we just use our brains. If you're on hold for a while, please be patient. We have a lot to look through. Yeah, we get our share of crazies and some outrageous questions, but that's what makes the job so much fun. So, next time you have what you think is a stupid question, don't hesitate to call.

Rush is a Wichita senior in journalism Feedback Pride Week articles lacked some views We are sisters who both attend the University of Kansas. We are very disappointed with your articles related to Pride Week. Perhaps we have missed something, but as far as we can see you have not fairly or accurately represented the other side of the homosexuality issue. You have presented the pro-homosexuality view in articles during the past week, such as the We want you to know that Fred Phelps is by no means representative of the Christian view point of homosexuality "Picketers base hatred on Bible," April 22. He is just one man with one group. April 23 editorial "Homosexuals deserve equal rights...", but you have neglected to acknowledge the other side. The true Biblical Christian perspective of homosexuality is different from Phelps' view. The Christian perspective says that homosexuality is a detestable sin which separates people from God, but it also says that God loves homosexuals and wants to save them from sin. If The University Daily Kansasan professes to be a unbiased newspaper, it ought to present the Christian views of homosexuality as it has presented the promohosexual view and Fred Phelps' view.

Photo by Holly Griggs/KANSAN Graduate students received praise yesterday afternoon during the Graduate School Awards Ceremony. Cynthia and Lisa talking to each other. The third annual Graduate School Awards Ceremony occurred at the Kansas Room in the Kansas Union. The ceremony honored graduate students who have graduate fellowships, and awards and recognition were presented to graduate teaching assistants. Eight graduate students and two faculty members were recognized for their work and dedication at the University. Chancellor Robert Hemenway welcomed the 100 people who attended the ceremony. "Graduate students are what make the University of Kansas what it is," he said. "It is appropriate to honor all graduate students, especially GTAs and GRAs." Awards included the Carlin Graduate Teaching Assistant Award, the Outstanding Graduate Teaching Assistant Award, the Graduate Student Award for Distinguished Service, the Byron A. Alexander Graduate Mentor Award and the Dean's Award. "Now we see how strong and positive is the impact graduate students have on society," Debicki said. Andrew Debicki, dean of the Graduate School, recognized graduate students for their academic achievements and fellowships. A new Graduate School fellowship was announced and awarded to Robert Futrell, graduate student in sociology. "Every year we are able to award a fellowship, this year it is the Nelson Dissertation Fellowship," Debicki said. Charles Barland, graduate student in music and dance, received an award for being an outstanding graduate teaching assistant. "It was a really unbelievable honor," Barland said. "I keep thinking back to starting my career five years ago and how far I've come." All nominees were honored and their letters of recommendation were read to the audience. "All of them are worthy of praise," said Sara Martin, assistant dean of the Graduate School. Martin helped distribute awards and was recognized for everything she had done for the Graduate School. Christine Robinson, GTA in sociology, received the graduate student award for distinguished service and an award for being an outstanding graduate teaching assistant. "It was incredibly humbling because I know the people who were nominated and it is hard to believe that I received the award." Robinson said. After the awards ceremony, students, faculty and staff were invited to attend a reception for graduate students. "I think it went beautiful," Martin said. "It was well attended by both the awardees and faculty of various departments."

Expires 5-8-98 Poet speaks about diverse writing By Laura Roddy lroody@kansan.com Kansan staff writer Cherrie Moraga, a Chicana feminist playwright, spoke last night about writing for groups that did not fit into white, mainstream America. Moraga's lecture, entitled "Sour Grapes: The Art of Anger," was the 1998 Horowitz Lecture, established for the promotion and understanding of cultural diversity. The lecture, which occurred in the Kansas Union Ballroom, was sponsored by the Hall Center for Humanities. "We read one of her plays, *Giving up the Ghost*, and it was really the lecture, the inaugural event of this weekend's Latino/a Symposium. Moraga said it was important to write and produce the theater that people from diverse backgrounds could identify with. Jenna Woods, Stillwell freshman, said she was exposed to Morga's work in her English 211 class. Moraga said she went to the theater looking for complex, contradictory, compelling women of color. Moraga also spoke about the process of writing. "Sometimes one can write very much from the heart," she said. More than 300 people attended Moraga said other times, it was as if there were someone sitting on her shoulders. Because the majority of theater spectators are white, heterosexual males'with money, it is more difficult to establish a connection with the audience, she said. Moraga said when the subject of a theatrical work was a woman of color, she was either exoticized, eroticized or stigmatized. Moraga also spoke about the tendency of many critics to be white males. "Progressive theater needs them because they bring in the middle-class ticket buyers," she said. Moraga said that forced her into a dependent relationship with white, upper-class America. "Sour grapes?" she said. "Oh yes. Most definitely." "Her theorizing has actually been really influential in my work," Conrad said. Katie Conrad, assistant professor of English, said Moraga's work had challenged her in her studies of British and Irish literature and feminist theory.

HISTORY Continued from page 1A Edward Barr, Tyler, Texas, graduate student, brings out the University's pinup collection when visitors from across the country come to see them. "I'm just glad someone wants to see them," he said. Barr has worked in the Spencer Museum of Art's print room since August. Photo by Roger Nomer/KANSAN $6 million is in original Vargas works. The remainder comes from print and poster sales. Some of those prints are shipped out from the University to be copied. Hartley has a contract with the Hearst Corporation making him the exclusive publisher of limited-edition prints and posters of Varas' *Esuire imagery*. Between 60 and 70 original Vargas works are on permanent display at the San Francisco Art Exchange, Hartley said. "We're kind of obligated to work with them," Goddard said. "They have the right to market these things as they wish." "There's always been a close cooperation between us," he said. Goddard said the art exchange's limited-edition prints and posters were nothing more than expensive reproductions. Hartley said he understood that the University might be reluctant to display the artwork because of its reputation as an academic institution. Joanne Meyerowitz, an associate professor of history at the University of Cincinnati, has written about and studied mid-20th century responses to girlie pictures in the United States. She said that a pinup exhibit would have value as long as it was put in a historical context. "The fact that there was a Supreme Court decision over them shows they were controversial," Meverowitz said. case, which boosted the popularity of the Varga Girl. She referred to the U.S. Postal Department's 1943 charge that Esquire was mailing obscene material. The magazine won the Norris agreed that, in context, the pinups were valuable for scholarship and that an exhibit should be mounted. torically important artwork," he said. "I've always thought it's a pity they don't show them." Hartley said the pinups belonged in nothing less than the Smithsonian Institution. Hartley's partner at the San Francisco Art Exchange, Theon Kabrich, said that Varga Girl pirnicks were known around the world. "It's not only beautiful but hising in their main galleries either. "He's the only one that paints them as art, not as titillation or voyeurism," Kabrich said. Holstead said that Vargas idealized women and created images of them that could not exist in nature. Spencer Museum's peer institutions say the pinups should be exhibited, but when it comes right down to it, they are not willing to sacrifice their reputations, Goddard said. "I had a real respect for him, although I wouldn't necessarily want a Varga Girl hanging in my living room," she said. And it seems that other museums do not want the pinups hanggreatest obstacles in raising funds for such an exhibition, Norris said. Corporate sponsors are hesitant to be associated with the artwork, a fact that has been one of the Goddard said that the museum should not mount an exhibition simply because of the pinups' popularity, nor should such a show be put together hastily. He said that it would take someone who was devoted to serious scholarship of the pinups to do the job well, with a full catalog of the collection to accompany the exhibit. Goddard said that the University legally could produce a catalog and even an exhibition poster because the images would be for educational use. Two KU graduate students did put together such a proposal several years ago, but lack of funding has stalled it. "It's not going to happen instantly, but it's going to happen." Norris said. "We tend to be slow." Someday then, people should see a pinup exhibition at the museum. But the collection the pinups came from may not fare as well. Holstead estimated that it would take a quarter of a million dollars just to have an archivist organize Fraser's attic in flat files, let alone create an index of the collection on CD-ROM for greater access. Across the country in San Francisco, business is booming for Hartley and Kabrich. Kabrich said they have sold between 400 and 500 prints each year for prices ranging from $1,000 to $5,000. More than half of those sales are of prints from the University's Esquire Collection, he said. Hartley and Kabrich have marketed Vargas across the United States and Europe, and they are expanding into China and Japan. And, through their business on the Internet, they even sold a Vargas to a woman in Moscow. Meanwhile, the University continues to gather royalties and bide its time with what some say is a world-class collection. A. M.

The 22nd Annual Minority Graduation Banquet will be held from 6 to 8 p.m. May 16, at the ballroom in the Kansas Union. The banquet will honor and recognize the achievements of minority students at the University of Kansas. A reception will precede the banquet at 5 p.m. at the Malott Room in the Kansas Union. The focus of this year's banquet is African-American heritage and will include music, dinner and a keynote speaker. The speaker will be James Renick. C. D. MORRIS Renick: Michigan Dearborn chancellor to speak chancellor of the University of Michigan-Dearborn and a KU alumnus. The banquet is free for graduating seniors. Tickets for non-seniors cost $12.50 per person and are available at the Office of Minority Affairs and the Student Union Activities box office. Jae Lee, Blue Springs, Mo., senior said the banquet was a good idea, and he would be interested in going. "I think it's good," he said. "It's important to recognize achievements of minorities in the University because it's easy to overlook what's happened or the achievements of peers that aren't as high profile like minorities." Renick said he wanted to focus his speech on the value of higher learping. "I also want to tell them how KU was important to me personally," he said. "I want them to know that the education I received from KU has been very beneficial." Renick said it was critical for students to see minority graduates in the real world. "It shows that minorities are going on and achieving high goals," he said. Fraternities pledge ban on alcohol by year 2000 By Carl Kaminski akcaminski@kansan.com Kanson stuff writer If the current trend continues, alcohol no longer may be a part of fraternity living. Several fraternities with chapters on the KU campus such as Sigma Nu, Phi Delta Theta, Phi Gamma Delta and Delta Chi have pledged to go to alcohol-free housing by the year 2000. The move toward alcohol-free housing is one that has benefits such as reduced liability and likely will be picking up steam this summer. Walker Gray, Interfraternity Council vice president for risk management and Wakarua junior, said he believed all fraternity houses would either be alcohol free or be taking steps toward going alcohol free by the year 2000. "Overall, national organizations thought this may help teach members to learn to drink responsibly." Gray said. He said making living environments alcohol free may help some members differentiate between their social and academic lives. David Glassman, assistant director of the national chapter of Sigma Nu, said part of the decision to remove alcohol involved high insurance rates. He said National Panhellenic Council sororities, which are all alcohol free have liability insurance rates of roughly $20 to $30 per person per year. The lowest rate of any Sigma Nu chapter was $75. Wes Simons, assistant director of greek programs, also said he thought all fraternities would be alcohol free in the next couple of years. He said several would be discussing the issue this summer, and he expected about 12 more to make the decision to go alcohol free in the next year. "It's not a question of if but a question of when," he said. He said chapters that had gone alcohol free have seen increases in the numbers of students they have been able to recruit and the type of people they recruit. "They can promise a cleaner and quieter living and study area," he said. Kevin Raymer, vice president of Sigma Nu and Russell sophomore, said that by going alcohol free, the fraternity was helping to dispel the image of fraternity life revolving around alcohol. Alcohol free housing does not mean, however, that fraternities cannot have functions with alcohol, Raymer said. The functions just cannot be held in the house. One of the possible drawbacks of alcohol free fraternity houses that has come up has been the possibility of more drunk driving as members drive to bars and parties.

Man gets 5 year term for rape By Ronnie Wachter rwachter@kansan.com Kansan staff writer Tyrone Edwards, the man convicted of raping a 13-year-old Lawrence girl in 1997, was given five years in prison yesterday in Douglas County District Court. Douglas County District Attorney Christine Tonkovich said she was not happy with yesterday's decision. "I would like to have seen a stiffer sentence," Tonkovich said. "I have to say that I'm surprised. This is a Level One offense, the equivalent of attempted murder." Edwards was charged with rape on May 9 and was convicted on Sept. 25. Judge Paula Martin said Edwards had a history of prior offenses, which by Kansas law would make the minimum sentence for his rape conviction 27 years. However, Martin chose to take a departure from state's rape sentencing guidelines because of the unusual nature of the case, she said. Tonkovich said Martin had informed her office of 15 reasons explaining why she departed from sentencing guidelines. Those reasons included the victim inviting the defendant to her home and consenting to intercourse. Edwards not using any force in the rape and the prosecution having no evidence showing Edwards to be a pedophile. "In '93, the Legislature made a new criminal code that said that anyone under 14 is incapable of giving consent," Tonkovich said. "Any sex in this case is rare." Sarah Jane Russell, executive director of Douglas County Rape Victim Survivor Services, said she was satisfied with the sentence handed down. "It was a very minimal sentence," Russell said. Bartam poussea that ne d'a receivé time in prison: Members of the victim's family declined comment Martin also ruled that, when Edwards is released from prison, he must register as a sex offender anywhere he lives in Kansas. Russell said she was concerned with the fact Martin had been considering giving Edwards a sentence that would not put him in prison. "What kind of message are we sending?" she said. "Rape cannot be a crime sometimes, and not be a crime other times."

Section A·Page 8 The University Daily Kansan Friday, May 1, 1998 Hill to come alive with the sound of music Unknowns sink fangs into show By Curtis A. Schartz Special to the Kansas A three-man band with one KU student and a fascination for snakes will open at Day on the Hill tomorrow thanks to its victory at the Farmers Ball last week. The band, 2 Player Option, entered the Farmers Ball by submitting a tape to the selection committees, said John Orcutt, SUA live music coordinator. An SUA committee narrowed the 80 missions to eight finalists who were invited to the Farmers Ball. Four of the bands played at the Bottleneck on April 20, and four of the bands played on April 21. The top two bands each night, selected by ballots submitted by the crowd, moved on to the finals last Friday. 2 Player Option includes David White, Kansas City, Kan., sophomore, on lead guitar, and vocals; Davy Derr on bass guitar and vocals, and Jimmy Colems on drums. For a recent practice, 2 Player Option gathered at a friend's house in a small, basement furnace room which has been converted to a practice area. The band borrows the practice space which is painted sky blue and covered with music posters from local concerts. Each member squeezed through the door of the 12 foot by 15 foot room cramped with amplifiers, speakers, two drum sets and a furnace. "We used to play at Jimmy's apartment, but someone moved in upstairs, so we've just been kind of floating." Derr said. Coles walked in to practice, carrying a four foot, green-and-white blow-up snake with a six-inch red tongue. He said he bought 22 snakes on their trip to Kansas City that day, including 10 of the blow-up snakes. "We might use them for props on stage, but we don't know, "Derrr said, 'Whatever happens, happens.' The band has a unique fascination with snakes, and they like to incorporate it in their show. "We throw out toy snakes at our shows," Derr said. "We just like snakes because they are scary yet intriguing and interesting." "Most people would say our music is a pop/punk style, but we don't want to limit ourselves to that." Coles said. "We mix it all together and play what we think sounds good." Band members said they were not influenced by any particular band or style of music. The members, who are fans of Green Day, said song writing is a group effort. A large crowd "We take someone's idea and practice till we get it," White sand. "Then whoever wrote the lyrics will usually end up singing it." The songs are written about men and women, friends, feelings, and everyday experiences. "We usually get drunk and play," Derr said. But the band is taking a more seri approach to Davon on the Hill. "The last couple of nights, we have been practicing sober." Coles said. The show could change their public recognition. "We hope this will get our name out and get us more shows," Coles said. "Hopefully someone will see us." The band is trying to get a tour together for this summer. The 1996 Day on the Hill crowd awaits the headlining band. Crowds have ranged from 3,500 in 1996 to a reported 40,000 people who came to see Pearl Jam in 1992. Contributed art "We have the transportation," Coles said. "We just need the shows." Day on the Hill tunes in for 10th year By Marcelo Vilela mvilela@kansan.com Kansan staff writer The sound of guitar riffs cuts across the hill while a crowd of young people gets ready to rock n-roll. Groupies cheer, bands prepare to step on stage and exhilaration fills the air. Tomorrow, Student Union Activities will sponsor its 10th Day On The Hill. Who: Soul Coughing performs last as the headline act. Los Amigos Invisibles, Fear & Whiskey, The Believe It Or Notes, The Creature Comforts and 2 Player Option. The festival begins at noon and features Soul Coughing, Los Amigos Invisables, Fear & Whiskey, The Believe It Or Nots, The Creature Comforts and 2 Player Option also are scheduled to play on the stage in the parking lot north of Potter Lake. Seating will be on the hill behind Carruth-O'Leary Hall. "This is an end-of-the-year, thank-you and going-away event for KU students," said Sue Buckley, SUA manager. Student Senate and donations from local businesses pay peripheral costs, such as security, stage set up and merchandise. on the Green. DAY ON THE HILL The Day on the Hill tradition started in 1989, but the free concert actually dates from the late 1970s, when the festival was called Day "The whole premise of the concert used to be different," said Mike Fine, SUA adviser. "If there was money left over in the end of the school year, we tried to do something with live music. A lot of times it was pretty modest. Ten years ago was when it really became a major event." The first Day On The Green took place in August of 1978. Since then, it has been called "Wheatstock," "Jayhawk Jam," "Summer On The Hill" and "Day On the Green Hill." The location of the festival also has changed during the years. Early festivals were held on the lawn of Allen Field House. Then the festival relocated to the hill near Potter Lake. The 1989 Day on the Hill was organized with a $3,000 budget. As the event has grown, the budget has increased to $20,000 this year. work with." "We couldn't bring in just anybody because we have a spending cap on the event of $20,000," said John Orcutt, Hutchinson senior and SUA live music coordinator. "So, the most we could spend on a band was $8,000. As far as national bands go, it's not a lot of money to "For the bands, it's a huge recognition factor," Orcutt said. "It really opens up opportunities in Lawrence, Kansas City and surrounding areas." Last year, They Might Be Giants received $7,000 to perform during Day On The Hill. In 1996,3,500 people attended the event, and last year, attendance was estimated at 6,000 people. To enjoy the seven-hour band marathon, people bring couches, chairs, tables and TV sets. Omnipresent frisbee throwers, hacky sackers and moshers will crow the hill. High school students and dogs will join the congregation. Police will monitor the a crowd. "People give SUA a hard time because there's a lot of high school kids there, but when we go through summer orientation, we are known for the event," Buckley said. "Safety is always a concern in activities inside and outside," said Jim Long, director of the Kansas Unions. "We supply private security, and there's KU police and Douglas County ambulances." tal element for a successful Day on the Hill. In previous years, mosh pits became mud pits and attendance suffered because of the rain. Good weather is also a fundamen- "We have a stage that has a cover to protect the bands," Buckley said. "We have played in rain, and it's never been canceled, and I hope my 10th one isn't." Rumors always surround Day On The Hill. In 1996, mysterious flyers popped up around campus announcing that the band Phish would play the festival. To the dismay of Phish fans on campus, the flier was a hoax. Instead, the band Poster Child was the headline act. Where: The concert will take place on West Campanile Hill. The stage will be in the parking lot north of Potter Lake and seating will be on the hill behind Carruth O'Leary Hall. When: Noon to about 6:30 p.m. This year's novelty will be the presence of campus organizations at information tables and tents. Organizations scheduled to be present include Lawrence Food Not Bombs, Delta Force, KU Environs, Amnesty International, Students For A Free Tibet and Adopt-a School. "It's really the most fun event of the year," Buckley said. "I love watching it, and I love watching the students' faces. It's the culmination of the hard work we put forth throughout the year. I'll have a blast."

Friday, May 1, 1998 The University Daily Kansan Section A · Page 9 Students strut stuff in concerts Dance company to take stage with array of moves By Emily C. Forsyth by Emily C. Forsyth forsyth@kansan.com Kansan staff writer Kansan staff writer The University Dance Company will bring a diverse display of dance to the stage in its Spring Concerts this weekend. The concerts will begin at 8 p.m. today and tomorrow in the Lied Center and will include six different dances that draw on a mixture of ballet, modern, East Indian, classical and jazz styles. Tickets cost $4 for students and senior citizens, and $6 for the public. "We want to showcase the fact that our faculty is very diverse," said Willie Lenoir, lecturer in music and dance. "Our students are adept at doing all types of舞." f- Members of the company, which include students and faculty, had to audition. Joan Stone, instructor of music and dance, choreographed a set of renaissance dances called *Sad and Merry Measures*. Stone also will be performing in the dance. The piece will be accompanied by Collegium Musicum instrumentalists, under the direction of Paul Laird, associate professor of music and dance. It is the only dance during the weekend that will have live music. Stone said the performance was appropriately named because of the contrasting nature of the dances. There are stately, processional dances and springy, skipping ones, as well as a grief dance. Naomi Carson, St. Louis freshman, will perform in *Sad and Merry Measures*. She said Stone's presence in the performance and the choreography added much to the end result. "She's studied these movements so long that they're really ingrained in her body," Carson said. "I think it's really inspiring. You can tell it's really coming from her heart." Carson said she appreciated the diverse nature of the dance program, which translated to the performances. "We want to showcase the fact that our faculty is very diverse. Our students are adept at doing all types of dance." "The teachers' styles are so different that it creates enough variety," she said. "You don't get bored." Willie Lenior The East Indian dance will be a solo performed by Patrick Suzeau, instructor of music and dance. All other pieces have three to six dancers. Lenoir choreographed the jazz piece called Topsy, performed by five women and one man. He said the piece, which is divided into three distinct parts, was inspired by the music of jazz legend Count Basie. "Some of the movements are taken from ballroom dancing," Lenoir said. "You'll see a hint of a tango, foxtrot, quick step and the jitterbug." Mitch Simmons, Sublette senior. lecturer in music and dance said the movement was jazzy with a modern feel. "It's a very difficult piece to perform because the movement is very fast and a lot of it is similar," he said. "It can get kind of confusing, especially when you're first learning it." Simmons and the other dancers have been working on the routine since the fall semester and have performed it several times. Topsy will close the concert with a barrage of drums, quick movements and changes of direction. Lenoir said Topsy would leave the audience with an up-tempo beat. "It gets you to move in your seat," he said. "It's that kind of music." Tickets are available at the Lied Center, Murphy Hall and SUA box offices. RECYCLE!

Mav 1, 1998 Mosasaur skeleton on the prowl in museum By Susie Gura sgura@kansan.com Kansan staff writer With the addition of a giant lizard, the information center will not be the only thing greeting visitors at the Natural History Museum. The mossasaur, an extinct 46-foot-long lizard, will be displayed in the entryway of the Natural History Museum. The bones of the lizard were found in western Kansas in 1911. A replica of the bones will be at the museum. "It is just the cast of the mosasaur," said Tom Swearingen, exhibits director. "The real thing is too big and heavy." The mosaasaur was the largest of all lizards, and the museum's mosaasaur is the largest specimen that has been found. Many masosaurs have been found in deposits in western Kansas. The exhibit extends from the fourth floor to the sixth floor. The museum fastened the sixfoot head of the lizard to the wall yesterday. The structure will be a permanent display in the museum. "After we have the head set we will put on the rest of the body." Swearingen said. "We've been working on it for quite a while. In about a month it should be finished." Facilities Operations, the welding and pipe fitting shop, students and carpenters all have worked on the exhibit. "The head and tail will be fastened to the wall and the rest will be hung with cables," Swearingen said. "We will keep it here as a centerpiece." The museum will wait to promote the attraction until the entire display is in place. "We will be talking about it next year when it is all installed," said Brad Kemp, assistant director of public affairs. "There will be advertisements with it in the coming year." The masasaur was put in the lobby because that is where the museum had sufficient space for it. "We also put it there because people who are coming into the museum get a sense of what it has," Kemp said. "It is a preview of what we have at the museum." The mosaasaur is part of routine updating the museum does each year, Kemp said. "It is a very impressive thing," Swearingen said. "It shows part of our local history and is an interesting attraction." Celtic band to shake The Bottleneck Violin, guitar group to release new album tmiller@kansan.com Kansan staff writer By Tamara Miller When a classically-trained violinist hooks up with an acoustic guitar band the result can be moving. The Lawrence band Shaking Tree will bring its Celtic and bluegrass fervor to their CD release party tomorrow night at The Bottleneck, 737 New Hampshire St. The band will be promoting their new album, Sound of Rain. The cover price for the show is $4 and $5. Lawrence band The Regulars will open for Shaking Tree. Tomorrow's night performance will be the second one for the band, said Dain Estes, guitarist and vocalist for Shaking Tree, and Kansas City, Kan., senior. "The Jazzhaus is our main venue," he said. "But we are expecting a good show for The Bottleneck." Estes said the new album was more experimental than the first. Estes played all of the instruments on the first album, Shaking Tree. Since then, a drummer, bassist and violinist have joined the band. "I was interested in bluegrass," he said. "But there is a pop sensibility that is the ground work of all our songs." Aaron Hetherington, Lenexa junior and drummer, and Ian Burns, Overland Park senior and bassist, joined Shaking Tree first. However, convincing Tom Waddington, Leawood senior and violinist, to join the band took some time, Hetherington said. "It took me a while to come over and The band has been together for almost a year, and has toured most of the Midwest. Estes said the band will be playing the entire new album tomorrow, as well as old material. practice," Waddington said. "I'd never played before in a band." "We have developed a kind of cult following from our shows at The Jazzhaus." he said. One of the songs the band will play is "The Middle of An Inspiration." Estes said the song was unlike anything else he had ever written. "A lot of my lyrics are satires," he said. "This song was more of a story about a combination of people I've known that have killed themselves." Hetherington said although recording the album was fun, Shaking Tree was best on the stage. “it's a lot more energetic when it's live,” he said. "One of the nice things "We have found our niche in Lawrence, and The Bottleneck is a great place to play for a lot of people." Dain Estes guitarist and vocalist for Shaking Tree about our stuff is that it's extra dance- *able.* Although tomorrow's show is only the second performance for the band at The Bottleneck, Estes said the band was looking forward to introducing the new album there. "We have found our niche in Lawrence, and The Bottleneck is a great place to play for a lot of people," he said. Students, residents put art cars on parade By Chris Horton chorton@kansan.com Kansan staff writer The second annual Art Tougeau parade will feature custom-made art cars at noon tomorrow on Massachusetts Street and will proceed from 14th to Locust Streets. People will be able to view the art cars from 10:30 a.m. until the start of the parade at the east half of South Park and after the parade at the Lawrence Visitor's Center, its destination. Charles Jones, Lawrence resident and organizer of the parade, said the reasoning behind art cars was simple — to have fun. "We take our cars and ourselves so seriously. I think sometimes we need to have fun," Jones said. Charles Jones, Lawrence resident, displays his art car at the old Lawrence train depot. Jones is the organizer of the Art Tougeau parade, which will take place tomorrow afternoon. Photo by Royer Nomer / KANSAN Jones decorated his car with stars, planets and trophies last year for the first parade, he said. "My car has a lot to do with following dreams," Jones said. "The stars and planets are related to the Kansas motto 'Ad Astra per Aspera,' which means 'to the stars through hardship'" Jones said he hoped to make the parade a yearly celebration. "We would like to make it a yearly event," he said. "I think it would be a great addition to cultural life in Lawrence." A wrought iron Volkswagen bug, a Ford van covered with bottle caps, a checkered limo and an Isetta, and a small car that looks like an airplane are a few of the 40 entries for this year's parade. Jones said. A group of eight people from St. Louis, Mo., with art bicycles that calls itself the Banana Bike Brigade also will be participating. Jenny Hart, Lawrence senior, is participating in her second Art Tougeau and helping Jones organize the event. "I had always told people it drove like a ton of bricks, so it seemed fitted." Hart said. Hart painted a brick pattern on her Volvo more than a year ago when she was inspired by a mason's truck, which was covered in brick-patterned vinyl, she said. There also will be three events held in conjunction with the parade. From 8 to 9 a.m. there will be a slide show entitled "Ugly Houses of America," which will be at the Watkins Community Museum of History, 1047 Massachusetts St. From 1:30 to 3:30 p.m. at 500 Locust St. there will be a viewing of figure art entitled "New Faces, New Figures."

Doherty jdoherty@kansan.com Kansan movie critic Academy Award winner Denzel Washington (left) stars as temporarily paroled prisoner Jake Shuttlesworth whose future depends on his being able to convince his estranged son Jesus (Ray Allen, right) to accept a basketball scholarship at the governor's alma mater. Contributed Photo People never have singled out Spike Lee for restraint behind the camera, and they aren't about to start with the basketball drama He Got Game. With all the subtlety of a marching band, Lee leads the lonely fight against sports agents and manicured college recruiters, complaining loudly that they have perverted the great game of basketball. This is news? Where was Lee when Tom Cruise discovered that for us in Jerry Maguire? To make sure folks with superlow IQs don't miss that "starting" revelation, Lee opens his movie in Smallsville, USA, filming corn-fed kids enjoying some low-pressure rounds of hoops. Filmed in syrupy Norman Rockwell colors and punctuated with an overtly sentimental music score, He Got Game reveals that its director has turned a corner: Spike Lee, radical filmmaker, has morphed into Spike Lee, unabashed sentimentalist. At times, He Got Game shows signs of greatness. The game sequences assault the senses with the grit of street play, and the director culls a solid performance from his star, Denzel Washington. He Got Game The problem is with the writing. He Got Game has only one strong element — the relationship between a convict (Washington) and his estranged son (real-life NBA player Ray Allen). Kansan Rating: ** out of ******* Running time: 2 hours, 15 minutes Rated R for profanity, sexual situations and mild violence But Lee struggles to make this part of the story work. Jake Shuttlesworth (Washington) is serving time for murdering his wife during a drunken dispute years earlier. While Jake has been in prison, his son, Jesus (Allen), has matured into the No. 1 high school basketball player in the country and is now fielding offers from a slew of universities. The governor wants Jesus to sign up at his alma mater. If he does, the governor will commute Jake's sentence. It sounds simple enough, but Lee decides to keep father and son apart through much of He Got Game's 135 minutes, focusing instead on the less-interesting world of back-slapping sports recruiting. The scenes between Washington and Allen contain the only real drama, but it's distressing unoriginal. For his part, Washington relishes his role with and acts with more intensity than he's shown in recent parts. But Lee ham-strings his star, keeping his motivations out of reach until the audience has stopped caring. Allen's deficiencies as an actor are as sensational as his knack for three-point shots. Lee is a fine director when he has the right material. When the material is mediocre, as it is here, he shifts into overdrive with herky-jerky camera work and editing. He Got Game winds up looking like an exceedingly long Nike commercial — an intriguing thought, given Lee's long relationship with the shoe company. Major flaws keep sequel from success Buzz Buzz Scott Bakula stars in Major League: Back to the Minors. Contributed photo Third installment desperately needs showroom Sheen By Jeremy M. Doherty jdoherty@kansan.com Kanson movie critic Go figure. Major League: Back to the Minors actually suffers from the absence of Charlie Sheen. Rick "Wild Thing" Vaughn may not be one of the great creations of modern cinema, but Sheen suited the material in the first two Major League movies like a well-worn mitt0. For once, he dropped his pretty-boy routine, absorbed the energy from Vaughn's infamous punk hairdo, and played the material as though he really believed it. Fans of the original 1989 comedy may welcome the return of Corbin Bernsen and Dennis Haysbert, but don't bet on it. Bernsen's Roger Dorn is still an unlikable manipulator, while Haysbert's Cerrano, the voodoopracticing outfielder, continues to suffer from an underwritten premise. They're only picking up their paychecks here. Without Sheen, who's apparently doing just fine playing second fiddle to Chris Tucker these days, the Major League series is exposed in this latest installment for what it is: a clumsy assortment of go-team-go cliches and simple-minded sitcom rubbish. The story is that Dorn, having retired from the ball field, now owns the Minnesota Twins and a struggling Triple-A team, the South Carolina Buzz. Major League: Back to the Minors Running time: 1 hours, 35 minutes Rated PG-13 for mild profanity The Buzz needs a new manager, so Dorn recruits washed-up pitcher Gus Cantrell (Scott Bakula) for the job. Major League: Back to the Minors isn't exactly a bad movie. Director-writer John Warren actually seems to think the corny teamwork sermons he gives Cantrell. Bakula himself delivers each line as though he were playing Henry V. Big laughs, all of them. But the movie plays it too lazily. We know that the hotheaded young batter (Walt Goggins) will eventually come around to Cantrell's easygoing manner. That Cantrell will find his calling as a manager after slumming in the minors for years. That the ragtag team will pull it all together before the big exhibition game against the Twins. But the movie needs a little sizzle. It needs to have Charlie Sheen stroll onto the field, wearing his Buddy Holly glasses while the crowd belts out the lyrics to Wild Thing. With the real baseball season finally underway, sports fans may as well stay home and see some real action for free. Audience held prisoner by twists of new Mamet movie By Jeremy M. Doherty jadoherty@kansan.com Kansen movie critic David Mamet won the Pulitzer Prize for his play Glengarry Glen Ross and penned well-received scripts for Wag the Dog and The Verdict. Most agree he's one of the best writers working today, but he rarely receives enough credit for his flair as a director. If there's any justice, that perception should change with The Spanish Prisoner, a sprawling, headache-inducing thriller that dares the audience to solve its riddles while it merrily yanks the rug out from underneath. Like Mamet's little-seen gem House of Games, Prisoner takes us into a world of paranoid power games and blurs the line between deception and reality. Our hero, or what goes for a hero in Mametland, is Joe Ross (Campbell Scott), a young genius who's just completed a groundbreaking invention called "The Process," which will net his company untold millions. For Ross, the triumph is somewhat more personal. He came from a working class neighborhood, and the impending fortune spells out a new social horizon for him—if he can only get his boss Klein (Ben Gazzara) to get the deal down on paper. While in the Caribbean to iron out the deal, Ross strikes up a friendship with Jimmy Dell (Steve Martin), a freewheeling playboy who takes a sudden interest in "The Process" and warns Rose to be wary of his boss' actions. Quickly, Ross begins to experience trouble. The FBI is asking some very uncomfortable questions about his friendship with Dell. Gradually, as friends abandon him and the threat of violence looms closer, Ross realizes someone is after "The Process" and won't take no for an answer. One of the remarkable achievements of Mamet's screenplay is that he makes no effort to describe "The Process" in any great detail. Most writers would only be too happy to give minute after minute of state-of-the-art explanations, but Mamet is too smart for that. He knows that the less we know about "The Process," the more intriguing it becomes in our imaginations. Mamet's trademark dialogue, with its shotgun pacing and cadences, is here like an old friend but shorn of his legendary profanity. The performers acquit themselves admirably, slipping right into Mamet's distinctive rhythms. Surprisingly, Martin offers *Prisoner*'s most striking performance, creating an aloof, chilling character who is miles away from his cheery *Father of the Bride* persona. Unlike House of Games, Mamet's complex structure here comes at the expense of sympathetic characters. The crisscrossing plot points inevitably strike the viewer as cold, even mean-spirited. The movie gives the brain a workout like nobody's business, but it just might shatter any previously held notions about the basic decency of humanity.

Mulinazzi has been volunteering her time to teach English to the students pictured like Myung Soo Shin, Korea, Hong Chen, China, and Celina Wilson, Costa Rica, for the past 15 years of Small World's 30-year exis- Writing a check and making a telephone call are simple, everdav activities. But Myung Soo Shin, a native of Korea, could not have done it without help from volunteers at Small World. Since 1968, Small World volunteers, including KU students, have been helping immigrants, refugees and students from around the globe increase their understanding of American culture, the English language and the Lawrence community. Kathy Mulinazzi, director of Small World, has been volunteering her time for 15 years. She said when students first enrolled in the program, usually they were shy and had difficulty expressing themselves in English. "Small World gives them confidence speaking English," she said. Anyone who is having trouble speaking, reading or writing English is welcomed to enroll in Small World. The tuition is $10 per semester or $18 for an entire school year. But there is one requirement: women only. Because Small World is a privately financed organization, it is able to make its enrollment policies. Mulinazzi said that having a single-sex environment made the women more comfortable. "In some cultures they don't have men and women in class together," she said. There also are occasions when students mispronounce words, which could cause them to feel uncomfortable in a co-ed classroom. On this day, one of the women said, about her English pronunciation, "I am having trouble with my bowels," instead of saying "vowels." "If the class was mixed, you wouldn't be able to do that." she said. The women are divided into five classroom groups based on how well they write and speak English. Within these classes, students learn about American holidays by carving pumpkins for Halloween, dying Easter eggs and making Christmas crafts. Shin, whose husband is a visiting scholar in the University's department of English was excited when she learned how to write checks and make telephone calls. Today she learned what to do in case of a tornado. "We learn many things and how to apply ourselves," she said. "We acquire the exact information about American holidays." Like most of the students in the advanced class, Shin began studying English in junior high. But the focus was primarily on vocabulary and grammar, not conversation. "Small World is the only opportunity I have to practice speaking English," she said. Small World also offers a children's program for women who have young children. While the women are in classes, the children are able to play together and socialize. The children's program is available for children up to age 6. Norella Munoz, Lawrence junior, is a volunteer for the children's program. Munoz became involved with Small World through one of her social welfare classes. "I went into this blindly," she said. "It has been really cool, and the kids are getting acclimated." "I understand there is a great need to get people familiar with the community," she said. "A lot of people come to this country and they don't have friends or family." Even though Munoz needed only 20 hours of volunteer work for her class, she said she still planned to be involved next semester. the progress she has made with her English. Hong Chen, who came to the United States from China, is pleased with "People in America don't really speak other languages," Munoz said. "We expect foreigners to know and learn English." "My listening and speaking is very poor," she said. "I can read a magazine and newspaper, but I can't understand when someone speaks to me. Now I am gaining confidence and am improving my English day by day, little by little." FREE Susan Jones, assistant director of Small World, said the organization was always looking for more volunteers. "We need teachers and child-care workers," she said. "They can also help out in other ways doing administrative stuff, publicity and transporting students." FREE 中 After volunteering for the program for the past six years, Jones has seen the difference Small World has made in the lives of the students.

Small World will celebrate its 30th anniversary by having an open house from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Thursday at the First Presbyterian Church, 2415 Clinton Parkway.

See CLUB SPORTS on page 9B WOMEN'S LACROSSE PHOTO BY CORRIE WATERS Senior slides into second base for Big 12 games By John Blakely Wilson Kansan sportswriter Senior Paul Levins will log out to second base in his last Big 12 Conference game this weekend. Levins entered the 1998 season as a man without a position. Levins was buried on the infield depth chart behind second baseman Andy Juday, shortstops John Nelson and Brandon O'Neal and third baseman Sparky Wilhelm. For Lovins, starting everyday for a Division Team is an amazing feat Head coach Bobby Randall called him a utility player, meaning he would play once in a while. "We knew Paul could really defend for us and play all over the field," Randall said. "He's a kid who works hard so we wanted to find him a place to contribute." Levins jumped into the starting position at second base when Juday, the team's leading hitter with a .353 average, contracted mononucleosis a few weeks ago. "I've been happy to play, but key losses have made it a long season." "I would really like to coach tee-ball someday." Paul Levins Kansas baseball player Levins said "We are not as competitive when you take experienced players like Andy out of the lineup." Levins played two seasons at Garden City Community College before impressing Randall at a postseason juic all-star game and transferring to Kansas in the fall of 1997. Levins came into Lawrence knowing he would play behind All-Conference shortstop Joe DeMarco for at least one season. "I just wanted to help the team any way I could," Levins said. "I struggled with injuries last year and through the fall, but I've gotten to play everyday through the second half of this season." levins established himself on the infield with smooth glove skills and a strong arm, but has also hit the ball well. He has racked up a .298 batting average while playing in 38 of Kansas' 46 games. "Paul can play anywhere and he has one of the strongest arms on the team," Randall said. "We knew he could step in and play, and we've been happy with the way he's gotten on base and scored runs in the last few weeks." Levins said he would enjoy his last few days of competitive baseball, but his future was not based on the diamond. Levins is an education major and plans to teach fifth grade. “It’s time to give back to the world all the things I’ve learned,” Levins said. “I’d really like to coach tee-ball someday. I would stress to the kids how fun it is to get out and play ball.” The Jayhawks have clinched last place in the conference with a 5-19 record and are 18-28 overall. ■ Kansas finishes up its conference schedule with a three-game set against Kansas State (19-24 overall, 8-14 in conference) this week in Manhattan.

Use what you learn this year to achieve greater success than you ever dreamed possible. Set high goals in May. Study in July and start applying what you're learning as quickly as possible. Aries: Today is a 4. Ignore being upset this evening. It's only a temporary condition. Good times and pleasant dreams are definitely predicted for you tonight. There may be a couple of hassles along the way, but everything will turn out fine. Taurus: Today is an 8. You are strong and capable, and you're learning quickly. Listen attentively to a friend first thing this morning and put his or her advice to use. It seems to be about managing your time the way you manage your money. Gemini: Todav is a 4. Call in all the money that everybody else owes you. If your boss promised you a bonus, mention that again, too. He or she should be in a generous mood. You've been producing results pretty well lately. Later, treat yourself to something new. Cancer; Today is an 8. Your friends are coming to you for advice, and with good reason. You give terrific advice! You're practical, hardworking and compassionate. Besides helping them stay on track financially, you can also help your friends emotionally. That's why so many of them call on you. Leo: Today is a 4. Have you checked your insurance policies lately? If not, consult with an expert this morning. There's an indication you could save more and get better coverage at the same time. If you have a date tonight, stay close to home. That way you won't be dismayed if you run into a detour. Virgo: Today is a 9. You have a friend who's in an enviable position. You may wish a little of that luck would rub off on you. Well, there might be a way to make that happen. Shadow this person and learn valuable skills. You're lucky and smart. This will be fun. Libra: Today is a 4. 男女同堂 Scorpio: Today is an 8. Opportunities abound. What is it you'd like to achieve in the next five years? Financial security? A nice home? A happy family? All of the above? Once you know what you want, it'll be a lot easier to make the right choice. Sagittarius: Today is a 4. Capricorn: Today is an 8. C Give up on the idea of getting away from work early. That's probably not going to happen. The odds are good that you'll have a marvelous time later on, however. If you and your sweetheart can go to a romantic place near water, you could create an experience worth writing home about. Aauarius: Today is a 4. This is your formula for success: technical skills combined with the support of a roommate or loved one, plus your own hard work. You also have to pay attention to details, and there don't appear to be any short cuts. Not today, anyway. Just keep plugging away. LION Pisces: Today is an 8. B You and your partner are showing everybody else how it should be done. Nearby is a person with experience, compassion, intelligence and intuition. If you team up with somebody like that — and add your perseverance and determination — miracles can happen. You need to be political. You have to watch for innuendoes and gestures, to know whether you're winning or losing. You'd rather be dealing with something mechanical. If the thing works, it works. If it doesn't, it doesn't. The game's not that simple today. Everything goes well for you today, because you're coming from such a beautiful place. It's the emotional state you're in. Others look at you and wish they could be like that. Don't be upset by a lack of money. The most valuable thing is love, and you have plenty of that.

Three years probation ordered for UCLA hoops OVERLAND PARK — The UCLA basketball program was put on three years' probation yesterday by the NCAA for violating recruiting regulations and giving improper benefits to athletes. Former coach Jim Harrick was cited for unethical conduct for lying to school officials during an investigation. He was fired just before the 1996 season began and now is coach at Rhode Island. In addition to the probation, UCLA was ordered to reduce official visits by recruits by six for the 1998-99 and the 1999-2000 academic years. The violations occurred from 1993- 95. The NCAA said members of the UCLA coaching staff gave entertainment and other benefits to the coach of a club team in Los Angeles whose players included potential recruits for the university. NCAA The coach also was given complimentary tickets to UCLA games and a 1995 championship ring. the NCAA said. Athletes were given tickets to Los Angeles Lakers' games and were allowed to receive excessive telephone calls at the athletic office. Improper transportation and free meals were provided to the parents of athletes or to the athletes themselves, the NCAA said. UCLA began an investigation of possible violations in October 1996 and reported the findings to the PAC-10 Conference. In considering the penalty, the NCAA Committee On Infractions said it evaluated UCLA limiting the club coach's tickets, revisions in the record-keeping process for telephone calls and requirements that coaches and others in the program attend educational programs about NCAA rules. Additional penalties were not imposed even though UCLA was placed on a three-year probation in May 1997 for violations in the softball program. The NCAA said violations in the basketball program occurred before the softball violations. UCLA, the NCAA enforcement staff and Harrick agreed to a summary-disposition process in which all parties agreed the violations occurred. The NCAA also noted that a private letter of reprimand was issued by the PAC-10 to the NCAA and that the conference conducted a compliance review with emphasis on extra benefits during the 1997-98 school year.

The Jayhawks, who were 7-11 against conference opponents, finished a game ahead of Texas A&M stealing the last spot in the winners bracket and avoiding single elimination. After leaving late Wednesday, Coach Tracy Bunge said she would try to work in a practice yesterday before her team took the field against No. 8 Texas. The Jayhawks split a double header against Texas in early April, losing 2-1 in the seventh inning. First base Softball man Shannon Stanwix was the only Jayhawk with a hit against Texas pitcher Christa Williams, a freshman All-American in 1997. "I think the key for us is to stay back on the change up and the rise," Stanwix said. "We've seen her before, so I think we'll be confident." Last year at the Big 12 Tournament, Kansas defeated Texas A&M 8-0 and Oklahoma 4-1 before dropping back-to-back games to Oklahoma State 3-2 and 3-1 to be eliminated from the tournament. Despite falling short in the league tournament, the Jayhawks received a bid to NCAA Regionals but this year their performance at the tournament will be a more determining factor. "As of right now, I think we have to win the tournament to have a shot at regional play," Bunge said. Bunge said she would concentrate on her team's strengths and the things they needed to do to win rather than worry about what strategies other teams may employ. "The Big 12 Tournament is our last chance," said catcher Kristina Johnson. "We're going in there with nothing to lose, and we're going to play like that." Bunge said pitcher Jessi Kowal would take the mound against the Longhorns.

The Jayhawks will compete against Washington State and Boise State in a team-scored meet.

The Jayhawks' final test before the conference meet will be the Emporia State Twilight on May 9, in which only a few people will compete, Schwartz said. "We'll decide on whether they need competition or to rest more, and in certain events it's more important to keep training and practicing." Schwartz said. "The kids who have finals won't go. That's the rule we have to go under." Schwartz said the team has had a strong outdoor season so far but the conference meet would be crucial in determining much of the success. "We've had a very good spring," he said. "The men have won the two collegiate series meets, and the women finished second in both of those meets. We've had a lot of strong individual performances and a lot of personal bests. But of course, you tend to judge by what happens at the conference meet."

Women athletes play past male domination ROCHESTER, N.Y. — In the late 1950s, when Nancy Viola was a teen-ager, female athletes gathered on Play Day — an occasional Saturday when girls from local high schools faced off on the sports field. The Associated Press "Play Days would be two or three times a season maybe, and that was the extent of it." Viola said. "It never occurred to me that it wasn't fair. I mean, if you've never experienced chocolate milk, you're probably not going to ask for it." Between graduating from college in 1965 and becoming athletic director in 1981 of the public schools in Batavia, a city of 16,000 in upstate New York, the landscape of women's sports in America had already changed immeasurably. The catalyst was Title IX, a 1972 federal law barring sex discrimination in high school and college sports. The resulting surge of women into sports will be scrimitized by athletes, coaches and academics during a national conference tomorrow at the University of Rochester. Keynote speaker Mary Ellen Clark grew up in an athletic family — her father taught diving to all seven children — and had a lifelong ambition to make living in sports. Conference debates will examine careers for women in sports, the emergence of professional leagues and the changing lifestyle of sportswomen. Viola will join a panel of athletic directors discussing how the style of leadership in sports has been altered by women. Without Title IX, she believes her path to Olympic success would have been much rougher but not insurmountable. "You never do know because heart and desire and passion do a long way," she said. Before Title IX, only one in 27 girls competed in high school sports. Today, one in three do. Some 300,000 young women took part in interscholastic athletics nationwide back then; 2.25 million do now. And in college, women now receive about 37 percent of all athletic scholarship money. Forsaking possible field hockey or lacrosse scholarships, Clark took Penn State University's offer to train as a diver. She later carried off two Olympic "Play Days would be two or three times a season maybe, and that was the extent of it. It never occurred to me that it wasn't fair. I mean, if you've never experienced chocolate milk, you're probably not going to ask for it." Nancy Viola Woman athlete before Title IX bronze medals, the second one at age 33 in 1996 after vertigo had made her too dizzy to dive for the first nine months of 1995. "Women in sports have always done great things," she said. "What it think is different right now is that it's getting the recognition that it deserves." One spin-off is the new cast of role models Now girls growing up see that not only can I really enjoy doing this, I can actually get paid for it," Clark said. Witness the women's U.S. ice hockey team outshining the men's team at the Nagano Olympics. "To see that on TV was 'Wow, what a neat thing," Clark said. "It gives girls that vision and that hope and a track to run on, the belief that, yes, it can be done." Viola was among the vast majority who never made it to the professional ranks — and never expected to — but who merely wanted to participate. ("Before Title IX) we accepted life as it was, and there were people who did not," she said. "Thank God for them or we wouldn't be where we are today. Some girls were extremely gifted and it was important to them to play; they created opportunities for the rest of us that we had never even thought about." Today, roughly equal numbers of boys and girls take part in interscholastic sports in Batavia, she said. "All of a sudden, people were more aware that girls weren't being given the same opportunities as boys, and so here we are today," Viola said. Indian Charlie is favorite for Derby Baffert looking for second straight win on horse racing's grandest Saturday The Associated Press LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Indian Charlie has trainer Bob Baffert in a Silver Charm mood. Indian Charlie, unbeaten in four races including the Santa Anita Derby on April 11, was the 2-1 early favorite to win Baffert's second straight Kentucky Derby tomorrow. If it happens, however, it won't be as sweet for Baffert as Silver Charm's win. "I have the same confidence I had with Silver Charm," Baffert said on a rainy Thursday at Churchill Downs. noses when he was nipped in the final stride by Grindstone. The 45-year-old Baffert came to his first Derby in 1996 with Semoran and Cavonnier. Semoran finished 14th, but Cavonnier lost by the shortest of "When I got beat, I was sick about it," Baffert said. "It was devastating, like a loss in the family. Last year, it was a personal thing. I wanted to win." Silver Charm, who also won the Preakness last year and the $4 million Dubai World Cup in March, is training at Churchill Downs and is stabled in stall 30 in barn 33. Indian Charlie, owned by his breeder, Ear Hardear, and John Gaines, is in stall 31. In stall 27 is Real Quiet, the one-run horse Bafert calls his Derby insurance. Real Quiet closed to finish second, a head behind Derby starter Artax, in the San Felipe and 21-4 lengths behind Indian Charlie in the Santa Anita Derby. One of Real Quiet's races in his 2-year-old season, when he won two of nine starts, was a third-place finish in the Kentucky Jockey Club, won by Derby contender Cape Town Nov. 29 at Churchill Downs. By that time, Indian Charlie's juvenile campaign had been over for almost four months. "Indian Charlie is still green, still figuring it out." Bob Baffert indian charlie's trainer The strapping chestnut colt chipped an ankle in winning his debut by 12 lengths on Aug. 3. He returned to the races Feb. 22 with a nine-length win in a seven-furlong allowance race at Santa Anita, then scored by 3 1-2 lengths in a one-mile allowance race March 13 at Santa Anita. In the Santa Anita Derby, he stalked pace-setting Orville N Wilbur's, took the lead in the upper stretch and won a stakes-record equaling time of 1:47 for the 11-8 miles. "If someone had told me that he was only going to have two races before the Santa Anita Derby, win it and equal the stakes record, I would have told him he was crazy," jockey Gary Stevens said at the time. "Indian Charlie is still green, still figuring it out." Baffert said. One of the most-asked questions of Baffert concerns whether Indian Charlie has enough seasoning for a tough 1-14-mile race like the Derby. The last horse to win the Derby in his fifth career start was Exterminator eight years ago. The last unbeaten horse to remain that way in the Derby was Triple Crown winner Seattle Slew in 1977. "He's been training for a year. It's not like he just came out. His brilliance makes up for his lack of seasoning." Baffert said. "I have two really good horses." Baf fert said. "Let the games begin." Stevens will ride Indian Charlie from the No. 8 post, just outside of Favorite Trick and Pat Day. Real Quiet, ridden by Kent Desormeaux, will start from the No. 3 post. The field in post-position order is Nationalore, Basic Trainee, Real Quiet, Halory Hunter, Chilito, Hanuman Highway, Favorite Trick, Indian Charlie, Rock and Roll, Parade Ground, Cape Town, Artax, Victory Gallop, Old Trieste and Robinwould.

After winning his first nine races comfortably, the Phone Trick coll got into a speed duel in the Arkansas Derby and finished a close third, behind Victory Gallop and Hanuman Highway. LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Pat Day seems to have everything going his way for tomorrow's Kentucky Derbv. Kentucky Derby The Hall of Fame jockey will be aboard Horse of the Year Favorite Trick, who loves the Churchill Downs track, already has experienced Derby day madness and appears eager to rebound from the first loss in his 10-race career. But even in defeat, Day was encour "He'll be more like the Favorite Trick of old in the Derby," said Day, riding in his 15th consecutive Derby and 16th overall. "I feel he'll break clean, not be nearly as aggressive as he was in the Arkansas Derby, get into a comfortable position and make a run at the quarter nole. "He had every right to cave in over the final 16th when one horse drew up on the outside and another came charging up inside of him. You never know how a horse is going to respond when he's tested. I was extremely happy that he hung in there and fought, and was coming back at the wire." Trainer Bill Mott, who was elected to racing's Hall of Fame on Tuesday, criticized Day's effort in the Arkansas Derby, but has since tempered his remarks. "If he does that, there's no doubt we will be there at the end." "What we did find out was that when he's challenged, he'll offer some resistance," said Day, Churchill Downs' all-time leader in victories. aged. "Pat probably had a little more con- "I think we will make the minor adjustments that need to be made, and I don't look for that to happen again." favorite trick's trainer Bill Mott fidence in him than what he should have," said Mott, who became Favorite Trick's trainer in January after replacing Patrick Byrne, hired to train privately for Frank Stronach. "But Favorite Trick was coming off a seven-furlong sprint and was only in his second race at 3 and was obviously fresh. "I think we will make the minor adjustments that need to be made, and I don't look for that to happen again." Favorite Trick, the 4-1 third choice for the Derby, will leave from the No. 7 post. During his winning streak, Favorite Trick won three in a row at Churchill Downs, starting with the WHAS Stakes on Derby day in '97. "The WHAS was his toughest race until the Arkansas Derby." Day said. "He broke his maiden nine days earlier, then came back and won when he was tested by Cowboy Dan. He's handled this track very well, and the Derby day experience won't play as heavily on him as it might for some others." Day also has ridden three other Derby contenders — Cape Town, Halory Hunter and Parade Ground. And what if the track comes up muddy tomorrow? "He's raced on a sloppy track here," Day said. "I think he'll handle the track, regardless of the conditions." Does that give him even more of an advantage? "It's a help, but not an overwhelming day," Help said. "All these riders are watching these horses and know they can change race to race, drastically on some occasions. Then again, it could be detrimental. You anticipate a horse will be laid back and that doesn't develop, then what?" Irish athlete's urine sample reeks of booze The Associated Press SDYNEY, Australia — A urine sample submitted by Irish swimmer Michelle Smith contained deadly levels of alcohol, the head of the International Olympic Committee medical commission said yesterday. "The alcohol level was so high that you could not survive with that concentration," said Prince Alexandre de Merode, chairman of the medical commission. "That is strange — that normally indicates manipulation." Smith, who won three gold medals at the Atlanta Olympics but was dogged by suspicions she had used performance-enhancing drugs, is under investigation by FINA, the world swimming governing body, over the alleged tampering. At a news conference in Dublin on Wednesday, she vehemently denied allegations that she manipulated the out-of-competition drug test, which was taken at her home in Ireland in January. She said she was told the sample had "a very strong whiskevodor." He said alcohol could be used to mask the presence of other drugs in a sample. De Moré said it was possible either it "is not her urine or that it's manipulated urine." FINA honorary secretary Gunnar Werner said he had been told the sample had "a heavy odor of alcohol." He said two drug testers, a man and a woman, were present for Smith's doping control, and "the woman was in the room with her." Smith told reporters, "There are unequivocal signs of adulteration and that there is a content of alcohol in the sample which is in no way compatible with human consumption." "I am not certain how many whiskey experts were used by the laboratory and were this not the most serious challenge to my career and my credibility, it would be mildly amusing." Smith said. The test was analyzed at an IOC-accredited laboratory in Barcelona. De Merode said he had spoken with lab officials about the suspicious sample. Drug tests are divided into an A sample and a B sample. Smith was given 14 days to request analysis of her B sample, which could exonerate her if nothing is found, to be wrong with it. FINA said Smith could be punished by a four-year suspension, or even a lifetime ban if found guilty. Werner said FINA's rules also include the possibility of retroactive sanctions. Werner, however, said it was unlikely that Smith. would be stripped of her Olympic medals. werner said Smith has been tested regularly by FINA. "We have had no evidence or suspicions about her before," he said. "We have had no reason to suspect her." Smith's father, Brian, was quoted in yesterday's Dublin Evening Herald as saying "certain individuals" are waging a vendetta against his daughter. "This seems to be a never-ending series of innuendoes and accusations that have existed now since Atlanta," he said, without identifying anyone by name. He said his daughter had undergone approximately 18 routine tests a year. Questions, comments? E-mail: editor@kansan.com 3 4 Friday.

CRAIG HOME By Katie Eagan The Goss House, 1101 211 St.], is one of several houses that survived Quantrill's raid of lawrence. The house has been standing since before the Civil War. Photo by Augustus Anthony Piazza/KANSAN Special to the Kansan There's more to the history of Lawrence than the University of Kansas. Historical sites throughout the city await discovery. After the Civil War began in 1861, debate sparked slavery issues. Armed encounters were common between anti-slavery Jayhawkers from Kansas and Bushwhackers from Missouri, a slave state. On Aug 21, 1863, William Clarke Quantrill led approximately 400 men in a guerrilla attack on Lawrence known as Quantrill's Raid. One witness said, "The attack was perfectly planned. Every man knew his place. The order was to burn every house and kill every man". About 200 men were killed, and as many as 185 homes were burned. Some of the houses survived Quantrill's Raid and are standing today. - One main goal of the raiders was to capture the Eldridge House, which had been used as a fortress to harbor armed men. The Eldridge House was surrounded, plundered and burned. The present Eldridge Hotel, located at 701 Massachusetts, stands on the original site. The Goss house, 1101 21st Street, was used as a hiding place during the raid. It was also a stop on the Underground Railroad, which helped enslaved African Americans reach freedom before the Civil War. Just south of the Lied Center is the Pioneer Cemetery. The victims of Quantrill's Raid were first buried there and some remain. Other bodies were moved to the Oak Hill Cemetery where a monument stands in their honor. Oak Hill Cemetery is located one block north of 15th and Elwood streets. History of Lawrence televised for class Cable broadcasts sessions for students By Emily C. Forsyth eforysth@kansan.com Kansan srfd writer When Dennis Domer decided to teach a class about the history of Lawrence, which would be broadcast on television, he did not know what to expect. What he didn't anticipate was that many of the students would watch the program in place of attending class. "I would say that about 65 percent of the students come to class and the other 35 percent watch it on television," said Domer, associate professor of American studies. "I'm a little old fashioned. I still prefer to have students come to class." Aside from attendance problems, Domer said "Biography of a City: Lawrence," which was taught for the first time this semester, was a successful venture. The 600-level course was offered for credit in history, humanities and American studies. Class sessions were videotaped every Tuesday evening and broadcast the following Wednesday at 8 p.m. on Sunflower Cable channel 6. A $2,000 grant from the Kansas Commission for the Humanities covered the cost of taping the class. Kelly Schuler, receptionist at Sunflower Cable, said the show had been a success with viewers. "The response has been good," she said. "I've had a lot of people call in asking for copies." Domer said he had received positive feedback from people in the community. "I'm pleased that so many people who are not in the course have been watching it on television," Domer said. Each week guest speakers provided students and viewers in the community with a new perspective on Lawrence, either through a lecture or an interview conducted by Domer. Topics included cultural, social, economic and political issues from past to present. Lectures covered subjects from Quantrill's raid to Lawrence as a center for American music and such historical residents as Langston Hughes and William S. Burroughs. As part of the class, students were expected to complete a project, which could be a research paper, an interview or a volunteer project. Domer said he hoped his students would delve into areas that had not been explored and uncover primary material. He said he would teach the course again in about three years and he would make some changes to its structure. One improvement to the course would be the addition of an anthology of readings about Lawrence's history. He said in some ways it was easier to teach the history of cities like Rome that have been canonized. "The history of Lawrence is sort of floating out there like a hundred thousand different molecules of information that haven't come together in any formal, organized way." Domer said. "For that reason, it's difficult to teach at this point." Historic raid remembered By Chris Horton chorton@kansan.com Kansan staff writer The Kansas-Missouri basketball rivalry may be fierce, but it does not compare to the Jayhawkers and Bushwackers. During the Civil War, loosely organized militant groups from Kansas and Missouri engaged in bloody guerrilla warfare that culminated in the burning of Lawrence on August 21, 1863, known as Quantrill's Raid. Former Lawrence resident William Quantrill led about 400 men from Missouri into Lawrence at 5:00 a.m., where they engaged in a four-hour attack that left Lawrence in flames and more than 147 people dead. The raid came at a crucial time during the Civil War, during which the war over slavery was raging, said Steven Jansen, director, Douglas County Historical Society and Watkins Community Museum of History, 1047 Massachusetts St. At the time of the raid, Lawrence had been settled for nine years, and the population had reached 3,000. It also had become the center of free state sentiment in Kansas. Jansen said. "Quantrill's Raid is considered one of the most important events of the Civil War west of the Mississippi River." Jansen said. Quantrill's Raid came months after a Jayhawker attack upon the town of Osceola, Mo. in which the town was looted and burned, Jansen said. "Quite a bit of what Quantrill's Raiders took from the raid on Lawrence was loot from the burning of Osceola," he said. Quantrill and his raiders, known as Bushwhackers, entered Lawrence at where 19th and 23rd Streets are today, he said. The raid often is viewed as an attack by proslavery forces on slavery opponents, but politics were not the driving force behind the raid, Jansen said. Neither the Jayhawkers nor the Bushwhackers were concerned with the slavery issue. "Both sides used politics as a cover for illegal violent activities," Jansen said. "They were each cut from the same cloth." Octavius McAllaster, who lived on the 700 block of Rhode Island, recorded his version of the raid in a letter entitled "My Experience in the Lawrence Raid," which is in the Kansas Collection at the Spencer Research Library. The events that actually transpired during Quantrill's Raid can only be determined through eyewitness accounts, he said. "I at first supposed they were U. S. troops, as it was a very common thing for them to be passing through the city, but in an instant they spread out taking possession of New Hampshire, Massachusetts and Vermont Streets principally, shooting ever person they saw." "I was up at about 5 o'clock on the morning of August 21, 1863. A noise attracted my attention and I looked south and saw between 300 and 400 horsemen on Rhode Island St." he wrote. An excerpt of his letter contains the developments at the bedding of the raid. Almost all of the 600, 700 and 800 blocks of Lawrence were burned to the ground, he said. Death estimates range from 147 to more than 200. The raiders didn't leave Lawrence until 9 a.m. Jansen said. Of the dead, 122 were buried at Pioneer Cemetery, which is located on West Campus, southeast of the Lied Center, Jansen said. The bodies later were disinterred and reburied at Oakhill Cemetery at 15th and Oakhill. George McCleary, associate professor of geography, created a historical map of Quantrill's Raid as it progressed through Lawrence. The map, completed last summer, is quite different from its predecessor which had been used in brochures about the raid at Watkins Museum. The point of the map is to illustrate the raid from the perspective one would take in examining a Civil War battle, he said. "What we wanted to do was to make a different graphic statement than had been made before." Jones said.

University of Kansas students who leave Lawrence at the beginning of May might not know how much hustle and bustle occurs here starting in late spring and lasting through the summer. - "I think the word has gotten out that Lawrence is a neat little place," said Jennifer Carter, travel sales and marketing manager for the Lawrence Convention and Visitors Bureau. Lawrence hotel and motel occupancy rates, which already exceed the national yearly average, reach their highest points in the summertime, Carter said. She could not provide the exact figures for local occupancy rates. Carter said tourists who spent the night in Lawrence contributed $28.3 million to the local economy last year. She said the figure would be even higher if it included money spent by people who came just for the day. Several popular events that have attracted many tourists to Lawrence in the past are taking place again this year. Dancers will compete in several categories and monetary prizes will be awarded to the top five finishers in each category. Haskell Indian Nations University holds its 14th annual graduation powow at Haskell Stadium from May 8-10. According to a press release, Haskell expects that 700 to 900 dancers will participate in the event and that more than 20,000 people will attend as spectators. For more information on the pow wow, contact Darrell Flyingman at (785) 749-8485. The pow wow begins at 7 p.m. on May 8. The cost is $5 per day for a single adult or $12 for the entire weekend. Children ages 7 to 12 get in for $3 per day. There is no cost for children under age 6. In July, the Sunflower State Games bring more than 8,000 people to Lawrence to compete in a wide range of sporting events. This is the ninth year for the Games, which will take place July 17-19 and July 24-26. Vicki Hill, athlete services coordinator for the Games, said people of all ages and skill levels had participated in past years. The events range from track and field to basketball to precision kite flying. "It's the most fun and the best competition around." Hill said. Any person who is a resident of Kansas, is stationed in a Kansas military institute or attends school in Kansas is eligible to compete. Skill level is not a prerequisite for any event. Hill said. Hill noted the appeal of the Games is in the opportunity to compete against people from across the state. For more information on the Games, call (785) 842-7774 or check out the Web site at http://www.sunflowergames.org. "We have such a wonderful history in our community, and history can draw people for economic reasons," said Rob Phillips, Eldridge Hotel general manager. "We decided it would be important to make another vehicle to tell the history of the Lawrence area." History buffs come to Lawrence in August for Civil War Days. The Eldridge Hotel sponsors the event, which runs Aug. 16-23. This is the third year for the event. The purpose of Civil War Days is to examine how the war was waged on the western frontier of the United States in places such as Kansas. Phillips said this year's event was still in the planning stages. In past years, there have been daily lectures about Civil War weaponry, Quantrill's Raid and other matters of local interest. He said these talks were meant for anyone who has an interest in the Civil War, not just academics. The Eldridge also intends to add activities that appeal to children. Anyone planning a trip to Lawrence can stop by the Lawrence Visitors Center, at the intersection of North Second and Locust streets, for more information on what to do when in town. The Visitors Center also shows the movie Lawrence: Free State Fortress, which was produced in conjunction with the University of Kansas, as a primer on Lawrence history. Friday, May 1, 1998 The University Daily Kansan Section B·Page 6 Liberty Hall thrives through the decades By Jacob Yeagley Special to the Kansan Famed journalist Horace Greeley and writer Oscar Wilde spoke there. "Antichrist Superstar" Marilyn Manson, soul man Wilson Pickett, some of the hotest opera divas of the 19th century and blues legend Muddy Waters all performed there. And Bob Basow, now an associate professor of journalism, recalls eating a lot of popcorn, drinking a lot of beer, and listening to a lot of loud music by the Fabulous Flippers when he was a KU student and the building was run down and known as the Red Dog Inn. Liberty Hall has survived a major fire and years of physical neglect that caused its decline from elegant opera house to sleazy rock-and-roll venue. It has been refurbished and reborn as one of Lawrence's premier cultural centers for live music and radio shows, independent art films and wedding receptions. Built in 1911, Liberty Hall was an elegant opera house that mutated into a concert hall, a Hallmark Cards warehouse, a disco and a boxing arena. The years have not dulled its schizophrenic nature. "We've had heavy metal concerts one night and church services the next morning," said Tim Griffith, Liberty Hall manager. Griffith has been involved with the building since it was refurbished in 1985, a process he said was long and difficult. "The building was in great disrepair," he said. "It needed heating, cooling and new electrical wiring. It was close to being condemned, but two citizens decided to save and remodel it." The citizens were the late Charles Oldfather, a retired professor of law, and David Millstein, owner of Sunflower Surplus. Their goal was to make Liberty Hall the community and performing arts center it once had been. It was easy. The theater has played host to many different art forms throughout the years. Patrons were occasionally offended by the smell of the meat packing plant located in the basement, said Steve Jansen, Director of Watkins Community Museum. The hall, along with the rest of Lawrence, got a face lift when the wealthy J.D. Bowersock moved to town. Along with a dam on the Kansas River, Bowersock rebuilt Liberty Hall, adding two stories and naming it The Bowersock Opera House. During the years, the opera house became a regular stopping point for traveling performers, giving Lawrence the cosmopolitan flavor that Bowersock craved. "The leading of the time came through the Bowersock," Jansen said. "George Nash Walker, one of the first Black entertainers, performed there." The building, which was also used for high school graduations, KU Dramatics Club performances and band concerts, was destroyed by a fire in 1911. Bowersock was determined to build an indestructible fortress. He laid new foundations of steel and used reinforced concrete for nearly every inch of the building. Years later, the federal government acknowledged the building's strength, when it said the building could be used for food storage and a bomb shelter because it could endure nuclear radiation. The current Liberty Hall building opened in 1912 to great fanfare. The rose-tinted walls, brown-leather seats, stained-glass windows, Circassian-walnut furnishings and sunflower-adorned procenium arch were grand for the small town of Lawrence. But the days of travelling opera companies were coming to an end as motion pictures became popular. Liberty Hall went through another transformation as it became a movie theater. It also introduced Lawrence's first talking picture in 1927, said current owner David Millstein. In 1930, a fire destroyed the interior of the building but, true to Bowersock's word, the outer structure remained unharmed. Liberty Hall was renovated into the Dickinson Theater and later the Jayhawker, which showed movies until 1956 when the theater closed because of competition from the Granada Theater. The building lay dormant until 1964 when two fraternity brothers, Mike Murfin and John Brown, bought the building and turned it into the raucous Red Dog Inn. The stained-glass windows were painted black, the balcony seats were removed to accommodate tables and crude murals were added to the wall. "There was a painting of a huge red dog. It looked like a cross between Goofy and Pluto and he was holding a gigantic pitcher of beer," Basow said. Rock-n-roll was becoming a way of life, and the Red Dog Inn was developing a reputation as an excellent concert hall, often packing in 2,000 people. When I grew up in Minnesota we'd turn on the radio and hear, 'Red Dog Inn-Lawrence, Kansas'!" Jansen said. "It was a big venue and supposedly had the largest draft Budweiser account in the country." With acts like Ike and Tina Turner, Fleetwood Mac, Wilson Pickett and regional favorites the Fabulous Flippers, the Red Dog Inn became the student hangout of Lawrence. "A bowl of popcorn and a pitcher of beer at the Red Dog was what life was all about." Basow said. It was also rumored the Red Dog Inn had the best acoustics west of the Mississippi, a rumor Basow contests. "Good acoustics was getting your hearing back, it was so damn loud." Basow said. In 1971 the Red Dog Imm closed and in 1974 the Free State Opera house opened, still booking acts like Muddy Waters, John Lee Hooker, The Police and Boid Diddley. In 1983 the building was refurbished. Oldfather and Millstein bought the property and formed Liberty Hall Inc., named after the original building. They refurbished the hall and repainted the theater to include stars, comets and planets on the ceiling and various Greek muses on the walls. Liberty Hall officially opened in 1986, with a live theater production of "The Ballad of Black Jack," featuring Oldfather. Oldfather and Millstein's dream of live theater wasn't profitable. Liberty Hall began showing independent cinema. To supplement the cost of operation, they brought in concerts and rented the hall out. Along with Liberty Video, which Millstein thinks has cornered the local market for independent, foreign and hard-to-find films, and the art-house movie screenings, THE JUKE PEN WITH SUNA Liberty Hall. Photo by Anthony Augustus Piazza/KANSAN the rentals have enabled Liberty Hall to survive. Millstein admits being nervous about allowing rock concerts and their aggressive audiences in Liberty Hall after the restoration. However, the only problem he recalls was when Morissey appeared last fall. "He's a vegetarian and somebody had threatened to throw a hot dog at him, so we had to pat down everybody to see if they were carrying any meat," he said. Big business ventures into town By Susie Gura sgrau@kanson.com Kansas staff writer Lawrence is continually growing in population and expanding its limits to become a bustling city. In 1854, a party of 29 settlers established a town on the south bank of the Kaw River. After their arrival, the town was formally named Lawrence, in honor of Amos Lawrence, a leading supporter of the New England Emigrant society, which had sponsored the migration to Lawrence. Kansas to the Union as a free state. Lawrence was founded as a project of the New England Emigrant Aid Society. The aim of this group was to encourage persons with antislavery convictions to settle in Lawrence. This was done in an effort to assure the admittance of According to the United States Census, taken every 10 years, the population of Lawrence has shown a steady increase in population since 1950. The current population of Lawrence is 78.131. David Guntert, Lawrence city planner, said the biggest influence on the continual growth of Lawrence was the University of Kansas. "Our geographic location between the Kansas City metro area and the Topeka metro area is also a large influence," Guntert said. The easy highway access both east and west, the low cost of living and the recreational amenities are other factors that have contributed to the growth. Lawrence is primarily growing to the west, Guntert said. "The direction that Lawrence is moving is due to geographic restraints such as the Kansas River, Wakarua River and the floodplains," Gunert said. The city of Lawrence is an active community having a great abundance of cultural, ethnic and academic diversity. The city has two major universities located within its city limits. Lawrence is home to both the main campus of the University of Kansas and the Haskell Indian Nations University. Because of both of these schools, the student population of Lawrence is more than 30,000. The city has a thriving downtown and is one of the fastest growing communities in the state. The population of the city grew by 52,738 people in 1980 to 65,608 people in 1990. By Jeremy M. Doherty idoherty@kansan.com Kansas staff writer The little college town is not so little anymore. Lawrence is in the midst of a growth spurt, attracting large corporations into its boundaries. Figures released in January by the Institute for Public Policy & Business Research at the University of Kansas showed that job growth is projected to hit 6 percent in 1988. William Martin, director of economic development for Lawrence Chamber of Commerce, said the flux of new businesses was only a continuation of growth patterns developing since World War II. In those years, Lawrence attracted corporations such as Farmland Industries, Quaker Oats and Hallmark Cards into its boundaries. "Since then, it's been a slow. steady process to diversify the economy," Martin said. That process has continued today without showing any signs of slowing. Sauce-Sunstrand, a transmission manufacturer, revealed plans last December to open a $30 million plant later this fall. Sears announced this January their intent to open an outlet store in Lawrence at 2727 Iowa St. They follow the addition of Borders, the Gap and Abercrombie and Fitch to the Lawrence economy. "As long as the national economy remains strong, Lawrence will remain committed to creating new jobs." Martin said. That commitment seems to come at a price. The opening of Borders, 700 New Hampshire St., last December was preceded by the closing of two longtime Lawrence bookstores, Adventure and Terra Nova. But Martin said other smaller businesses did not have reason to worry. "One of the goals of the city is to work with smaller or medium-sized firms." he said. Some of those smaller businesses, are as old as Lawrence itself. Tom Wilcox, owner of Round Corner Drugstore, 801 Massachusetts St., said the competition presented by new businesses challenged him to find ways to keep his customers. "You have to try and decide why you're in business, who're your customers, and why they're coming to you," he said. These smaller outfits provide the widening community with a link to its past, said Lisa Blair, representative of Downtown Lawrence, a coalition of local businesses. "They're the cornerstones of what Lawrence is all about," she said. "They have a family atmosphere that reminds people of their youth in the community." After reading the Kansan...

Johnson gjohnson @kansan.com Kansan staff writer The Sigma Nu fraternity at 1501 Sigma Nu Place, is the former home of former governor Walter "Roscoe" Stubbs. Legs has it that the house is haunted by a former servant who was found hanged in the third floor ballroom. Photo by Augustus Anthony Piazza/KANSAN All buildings cast shadows, but few cast historical shadows as long, prestigious and mysterious as the Sigma Nu fraternity house. "There's so much history here," said Charles Henderson, Overland Park junior and president of Sigma Nu. "It's been through thick and thin." The house, at 1501 Sigma Nu Place, is imposing in size, but its legacy may be even larger. It has been home to governors, astronauts and possibly even ghosts. It has been a source of legendary myths and land for fraternities. Mostly, it has been a place of tradition in Lawrence. The house was built in 1907 by Walter "Roscoe" Stubbs, who served as Governor of Kansas from 1908-1912. Stubbs ran a successful cattle business from the house and was noted as a progressive governor for applying his business sense to government. Steve Jansen, director of the Douglas County Historical Museum, said the house was known as Wind Hill Estate and was surrounded by more than 20 acres of undeveloped land. "In terms of that suburban northwest area of Lawrence, it's as old as it gets." Jansen said. Almost as old as the house is its haunted legend. Legend holds that in 1911 a house servant who was allegedly the governor's mistress was hanged in the third floor ballroom. No one knows if the hanging was a suicide or a murder. Also rumored, but unconfirmed, is that the ashes of a woman, Virginia, are buried behind the main fireplace, a fireplace which bears a plaque with place which bears a plaque with the enigmatic phrase: "The world the enigmatic phrase: "The world of strife shut out, the world of love shut in." The plaque has been there since the fraternity bought the house and no one knows for sure what it means, Henderson said. Henderson said there had been a long history of sightings and other events that have led some members to believe in the legend of Virginia's ghost. "Some people in the house believe she really is here," Henderson said. Ryan Stein, Smithville, Mo., junior, had an experience last summer that opened his eyes. He heard several doors slam shut, only to find there was no one in the house. "I think it could be true," Stein said. "Probably 90 percent of it is hype, but then there is that other 10 percent of it in the back of your mind when you're the only one in the house." Willard Chi, an KU graduate and former Sigma Nu resident, said he was skeptical but he appreciated the tradition of the legend. "I personally don't believe in ghosts, but I think it's healthy to have legends," Chi said. "It brings out a sense of camaraderie and shared culture." That shared culture has been building since the Nu chapter of Sigma Nu bought the house and 22 surrounding acres from the governor in 1922. The fraternity sold much of the land to fellow fraternities and sororites to build their houses in the area. "They came to us to ask for land," Henderson said. "It helps us remember our history in that a lot of properties around here used to be owned by Sigma Nu." But perhaps the house's greatest legacy is the quality of some of the people who have lived here. It has been home to an astronaut Ray Evans of Apollo 17 fame, and William Inge, the Pulitzer prize-winning playwright. And, of course, Governor Stubbs. "I think it's a neat thing to be able to say that I live in the old governor's mansion," Henderson said.

Built in 1917, the building held a grocery store and a farm implement store before it became a bar. Photo by Augustus Anthony Piazza/KANSAN Foundations repaired to preserve history By Rannie Wachter wachter@kansan.com Kansan staff writer Lawrence is noted for its abundance of buildings with area historical significance. Many of them reside in the downtown area, while others are hidden in less conspicuous places. Between 1870 and 1940, Lawrence experienced a slump in population growth, and a corresponding slump in economic growth, said Steve Jansen, director of the Watkins Community Museum, 1047 Massachusetts St. According to Jansen, this slump was crucial in the preservation of Lawrence's older buildings. One of the most historic of Lawrence's buildings is Liberty Hall, 642 Massachusetts St. Several different structures, serving several different purposes, have been erected at the corner of Seventh and Massachusetts streets. Fires, raiders and property sales have each played a role in the destruction and reconstruction of the buildings there. Its story, along with many others, was told in "100 years of Lawrence Theaters," a 1979 book written by Emory Scott Frank, a historian of the area. The first version of Liberty Hall was created in 1856, and lasted until 1882. It was damaged by fire several times, including two attacks by pro-slavery raiders. When University of Kansas stu dents walk inside Liberty Hall, they probably do not know the building at 642 Massachusetts St. is relatively young, compared to others in Lawrence. The Granada Theater, 1020 Massachusetts St., was constructed in 1943, and has not needed to be reconstructed since. In the 1950s, the owners shifted its emphasis to motion pictures, to help it maintain its popularity. "We have people come in all the time and say 'I went on my first date to The Granada,'" said Jenne Moore, manager. The Granada also served as a dance hall on the weekend, which it has returned to for its primary attraction today. But Jansen said the oldest buildings were away from downtown. "You can go into old Lawrence, North Lawrence particularly, and find places that haven't changed in 100 years," he said. One of those older buildings is Johnny's Tavern, Jansen said. Built in 1917, it is among the oldest buildings used as a business still standing in Lawrence today. The building originally housed a grocery store, which was converted to a farm implement store in the 1940s, then became Johnny's in 1951. But according to owner Rick Renfro, the building was used as a bar long before it got its license. "During Prohibition, they used to sneak a few bottles of whiskey in there," he said. Celebrities called Lawrence home By Laura Roddy Irodody@kansan.com Kansan staff writer Langton Hughes, James Naismith and William S. Burroughs are all well-known names that have a Lawrence connection. Steve Jansen, director of the Watkins Community Museum of History, 1047 Massachusetts St., said the number of prominent people in Lawrence throughout the years was unusual, although not unique to other cities. Jansen said political roots, the founding of the University of Kansas and the founding of the Haskell Institute played an important role in Lawrence's attraction of well-known people. One of Lawrence's most recent prominent citizens was Beat Generation poet and novelist William S. Burrowes, who died Aug. 2. Burroughs moved to Lawrence from New York City in 1981. David Ohle, Lawrence resident, knew Burroughs well. Ohio M. C. E. H. cooked dinner for Burroughs and his guests every Thursday night during the last six or seven years of Burroughs' life. o h l e described Bur- roughs as a avoracious reader who loved his cats. Burroughs:made Lawrence his home for many years "He was a really interesting, clever, smart man," Ohle said. "He always had people around him." good conversation, target shooting, writing and painting. Ohl said a film was in the works for 1988 based on an autobiography of Burroughs' life. Ohle wrote the screenplay, and actor Steve Buscemi will direct it and play Burroughs. Buscemi spent a couple of days in Lawrence with Burroughs six weeks before he died. Burroughs was just one of m a n y Lawrence residents famous outside the state of K an s a s, Jansen said. PETER BALDWIN John Brown, the abolitionist who took over Harper's Ferry in 1859, had Lawrence Allen: basketball legend lived in lawrence connections. Jansen said although John Brown never lived in Lawrence, he was frequently seen on the town's streets. Langston Hughes, an African-American poet and playwright, lived in Lawrence from 1905 to 1913, when he was about 5 to 13 years old. Hughes' book *Not Without Laughter* was a fictional account of his childhood in Lawrence. George "Nash" Walker, a vaudeville entertainer, was born and buried in Lawrence, Walker and his partner, Bert Williams, were African-American theatrical pioneers in the late 1800s and early 1900s. Walker wrote in *The Theatre Magazine* in 1906 that, "In those days, black-faced white comedians were more numerous and very popular. They billed themselves as 'coons.' Bert and I watched the white 'coons' and were often much amused at seeing white men with black faces trying to imitate black folks." Jansen also cited William Clarke Quantrill, who is known for his raid on Lawrence; James Naismith, founder of basketball and the University's first basketball coach; Forrest "Phog" Allen, another of the University's basketball coaches, as well-known figures associated with Lawrence. "We are the cradle of basketball here, but we are also the symbolic birthplace of the Civil War," Jansen said. By Lisa Stevens John Kansan staff writer A marker on Highway 56 several miles outside of Baldwin tells the story of what was known as the Battle of Black Jack. Though much less well-known than some of the other border wars, including Quantrill's 1863 Raid on Lawrence, the 1856 Battle of Black Jack has its story to tell. And a Baldwin man has plans to share the story with the public once more. In 1969, Don Mueller, a former professor at Baker University, wrote a historical musical, The Ballad of Black Jack. deaths at the Battle of Black Jack. Mueller said there were no "If you have to have a battle, that's the kind to have for a musical comedy." Mueller said. Mueller said he wrote the play after members of the Baldwin community asked him to write something to be performed during the annual Maple Leaf Festival in November. While looking through a used bookstore, Mueller said he found an old textbook of Kansas history. "It was providential," Mueller said. "I opened the book and there was the Battle of Black Jack, the whole play just waiting to be written." After extensive research, Mueller wrote the play including songs and lyrics. From 1969 to 1982, the play was performed in Baldwin. In 1983, the last showing, the 80-member cast performed at Liberty Hall, 642 Massachusetts St. Now for the first time since 1983, Mueller has plans to resurrect The Ballad of Black Jack. He is working to find a location to hold performances during the 1998 Maple Leaf Festival. Steve Jansen, director of Watkins Community Museum of History, 1047 Massachusetts St., said he was glad to hear "The Ballad of Black Jack" might be presented this year. "I greatly admire what Don Mueller has done," Jansen said. "It takes people with theatrical talent to craft these things. I, as a local historian, I will read the books and I'll try to convey them to the public, but if you can add drama and music and the sense of theater, it obviously adds to the appeal of the story." "Some people point to November 1855. There was a shot fired in anger when a pro-slavery man was taking a free-state man into prison," Jansen said. "Some people have said that was the first shot of the Civil War because of what followed." Jansen said the Battle of Black Jack is memorable as being the first pitched battle in which the free-state men were engaged. Jansen said the Battle of Black Jack occurred seven months later on June 2, 1856. Museum offers taste of old Lawrence By Nathan Willis Special to the Kansan Watkins is a familiar name to KU students. One downtown building, sharing the namesake with a scholarship hall and health center, chronicles the history of Lawrence. Watkins Community Museum of History, 1047 Massachusetts St., was established in 1933 and moved to its current location in 1975. It offers students a unique chance to understand the community in which they live. "When I attended KU, I insulated myself from the Lawrence community like a lot of students today," said Steve Jansen, museum director. "But students should get to know the community, since they're going to spend so much time here. And we help students do that." The museum has collected more than 11,300 artifacts relating to Douglas County history. Jansen said some of the museum's most prominent exhibits included historical information about the Kaw River Valley, artifacts and letters relating to Quantrill's Raid and for the thousands of basketball fans in Lawrence, a James Naismith exhibit. And then there's the building itself, which was built and later given to the city by Elizabeth Watkins. to look at that." "The building itself is our major exhibit," Janssen said. "The building was built in 1888 for $100,000, and it would cost $15 million to replace it today." Alexis Radil, Lawrence graduate student and intern at the museum, said the museum was worth seeing. "I would encourage people to make the visit simply for the beauty of the building," she said. "It's worth it just The museum also offers something for students more interested in round ball than Romanesque architecture. In addition to the Naismith exhibit, an exhibit dedicated to legendary basketball coach Phog Allen is scheduled to open soon. "There tend to be two things that stand out in Lawrence's history: the Civil War heritage and the cradle of basketball that the town is," Jansen said. "We find the largest interest in those topics, and so we focus on those." Despite the wealth of information, the number of students who visit the museum relatively is low. Out of about 230 visitors each week, Radil estimated about 25 to 30 are KU students. COMMUNITY MUSEUM "A lot of students don't know about the research possibilities down here Hours: 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday; 1:30 to 4 p.m. Sunday The museum is closed Mondays and holidays. Admission: Free; donations are appreciated. ■ Current exhibits: James Naismith, Kaw River Valley during the Civil War and Quantum's Raid with photographs and archives that could be helpful to projects," Radil said.

Photo by Eileen Brokri/KANSAN Continued from page 1B "I think being in a University sport has a lot more benefits than a club sport," Hazim said. "At least when you travel, the University takes care of the hotels and transportation. That takes a lot of stress out, so you can just worry about competing." But athletes on teams not associated with the Athletics Department worry about more than competing. Plane tickets on maxed-out credit cards, cramped cars on long drives, roadside motels, Ramen noodles and looking for sponsorships from local businesses: Things are a bit different for KU's club sports. Club athletes push their bodies to the limits in search of the same goals as their varsity counterparts, but after the game, one rookie washes the jerseys and another tracks the equipment. While the Athletics Department supports 18 NCAA Division I teams, other KU athletes can compete intercollegiate on club sports teams. Club teams compete with teams from other universities but don't receive support from the department. Club sports run the gamut of competition not offered by the department from women's lacrosse to men's crew. The University is home to clubs for more than 15 sports, but it isn't always a happy home. Some club presidents said they would like to see their club elevated to varsity level. At the same time, many say they are reluctant to give up thefreedoms club sports offer. Association with the University gives them the opportunity to compete, but club teams receive little recognition. Without scholarships, club athletes worry about team dues and travel expenses in addition to tuition, books and school fees. Philip Oberzan, Lawrence sophomore, is a manager for the varsity women's volleyball team and the president of the men's volleyball club team. "I would love to see us be a varsity sport," Oberzan said. "We're a bunch of dedicated athletes, just like the women's team." He said the men's team functioned in much the same way as the women's, including playing other Big 12 Conference clubs and at tournaments. "We've been to tournaments at Air Force, Michigan State, Arizona and Kentucky," he said. However, club teams do receive some financial support. "Every year, Student Senate's Sport Club Council sets its budget, where it determines how much money it can give to each sport." Oberzan said. "It's typically not nearly enough for what's needed." Mike Walden, student body vice president, said Senate budgeted $96,244 for club sports during the 1997-98 school year. MAKING THE VARSITY Despite student financing, club athletes said that they rather would be varsity athletes. Instead of receiving money from student fees, they would prefer to have the Athletics Department take them into the fold. Even the ultimate Frisbee club, which does not have a varsity counterpart, would like varsity recognition, said Steve Chaitin, Winnetka, Ill., senior and team captain. "The young guys we have now are real serious athletes, and they would like to see some recognition for their hard work." Chaitin said. "Sometimes I feel really underappreciated as a club athlete." Oberzan said the possibility of seeing men's volleyball players join the women as varsity athletes was enticing. "Yeah, I would like it," he said. "Men's volleyball is a varsity sport at about 50 other schools, so it's not easy to compete with them." Title IX is part of federal law which requires athletics departments to field teams of male and female athletes in proportion to men and women enrolled at their school. At the University, recent promotions of women's soccer and women's crew, both former club teams, to the varsity level are part of efforts to insure gender equity. "You have all those Title IX regulations, where if the athletic department wants to add a sport, they have to do all balancing," he said. "Some other men's sport might even have to be cut." But Oberzan acknowledged that becoming a varsity sport was much more complex than it might first appear. Amy Perko, associate athletics director, said that the Athletics Department would not consider adding new sports any time soon. "We don't look at a sport and say 'We're going to cut it because it's not successful,'." Perko said. "That's something that Kansas can be proud of. We're trying to give people opportunities, not take them away." Perko said because the department added women's rowing and women's soccer three seasons ago, the University would not be able to add any new sports in the foreseeable future. "It takes a long time to bring a sport up to varsity level," she said. "We're still in the phase-in segment in rowing and soccer." Susan Wachter, Athletics Department chief financial officer, said cost was considered before adding a varsity team. "It takes a lot of money to finance a varsity sport," Wachter said. She said much of the money budgeted for a varsity sport was spent on scholarships for plavers. The women's soccer budget for the 1997-98 school year was $297,000, and the women's rowing budget for the 1997-98 school year was $347,000. Wachter said. "And we're not fully funding them yet." Wachter said. FOR THE LOVE OF THE GAME KU's ultimate Frisbee club has a monetary advantage. Most Ultimate Frisbee competition occurs at tournaments for which teams pay an entrance fee. The ultimate team has its own tournament, Fools Festival, which was April 4 and 5 this year. "We pretty much fund ourselves from the tournament," said Chaitin, team captain. "We charge an entry fee, and that's pretty much how ultimate works." Chaitin estimated that after expenses, the ultimate sound spend about $8,000 from this year's tournament. I don't care about $2,000 from this year's tournament. For more info, raise raising isn't the only problem. Publicity also is a big concern. Karl Bhatnagar, four-year rugby player, said he wasn't satisfied with the attention KU gave his team. "We're always looking for more recognition, mainly because of our image" he said. "The image of the sport in the community is not accurate. They don't see the responsibilities taken on by players at this level." Promotion is only the beginning of the list of responsibilities club sports handle themselves, Bhatnagar said. "It is a lot of do-it-yourself stuff," he said. "The rule book that the University gives all club sports says that the leadership has to come from within the team." But club athletes agreed that operating in the underground had its benefits. "It's a little more relaxed vs. the women's team that I interact with every day," Oberzan said. For the women on the volleyball team, the sport is their life, he said. Club sport athletes also compete in individual sports. The University is home to clubs for judo, wrestling and even sailing. Despite the hours put in, the money taken out, and the blood, sweat and tears shed, club players agreed that it was worth it. "I'm proud of us because we do it almost all by ourselves," Oberzan said. Chaitin said he felt the same way. SUPER FIRE "When I walk off the field after my last game, it's going to be really hard," he said. "I love this team." S Oklahoma hires away MU Athletic Director NORMAN, Okla. — The University of Oklahoma hired the University of Missouri's Joe Castiglione as its new athletic director yesterday. QJ Castiglione has been athletic director at Missouri since 1994, when he Castiglione, 40, replaces Steve Owens, who resigned in March. when he replaced Dan Devine. Before that he served in a program of roles for the Missouri program, including assistant director of athletics and associate director of athletics. Owens stepped down after 19 months on the job, citing personal reasons for the move. He created a plan for an $85 million sports park at Missouri, much of which is complete or under construction. He is known as an outstanding fund-raiser. His marketing background is credited with helping increase attendance at most Missouri sports. "He is respected both for his abilities and his values," OU President David Boren said. "His strength as a long-term strategic planner will be of great benefit to the University of Oklahoma. "He is extremely well suited to guide a complex, modern-day athletic program, which not only has an important educational mission, but also is a major business and marketing operation." Castiglione was recommended unanimously by the search committee, which was headed by Regents chairman Melvin Hall. Chuck Neinas, former Big Eight commissioner and director of the College Football Association, advised the committee. Atlanta's Jones keeps vigor The Associated Press ATLANTA — For some reason, Chipper Jones acts as if he has something to prove this season. There is nothing wrong with a guy trying to summon up a little extra motivation, but it seems unwarranted. After all, how could Jones be down on himself Braves after compiling these numbers a year ago: .295 average, 21 homers, 111 RBIs and 20 stolen bases. Still, a month before spring training began, the Atlanta Braves third baseman went to work. While others were honed their golf swings, Jones grabbed a bat and traveled to Florida to work with his father, a college baseball coach. Jones always has been diligent with his winter workout program, but this was different — a superstar working out with the vigor of someone who had a job to earn. "I went out really on a mission to try to prove myself as one of the best players in the league," said Jones, apparently believing that 51 homers and 221 RBIs during the last two seasons did not show that. "That's what I want to be known as. I'm not there yet, but hopefully I'll get there." He already is being mentioned as an early MVP candidate, deflecting some of the inevitable Cy Young talk that occurs when your pitching staff includes Greg Maddux, Tom Glavine, John Smoltz and Denny Neagle. Judging from the first month of the season, Jones is shortchanging himself. On a team where the focus seems to be on pitching, he finished the month of April ranked among the NL leaders in batting average, hits, homers, RBs and runs. That is not just talk. Jones is a throwback to the era when players wore grease under their eyes, pulled their socks up high and left a batting glove dangling from their back pocket. After his rookie season, he quickly agreed to a four-year contract and has not made a peeen "My goal every year is to win a World Series and hopefully my contributions will help get this team back to where we want to be," Jones said. "That's the only goal. Anything individual, that comes later on down the road. It's icing on the cake." about his salary, even though he clearly is underpaid — by today's standards — at $2.5 million a year. "Chipper is the kind of hitter I like because he hits when it counts," said Colorado's Dante Bichette, one of the National League's premier hitters. "He drives in the tough runs. From what I see, he's always out there, always in the lineup." Though he is only 26, Jones has been a leader on the Braves since the day he took his place in the starting lineup in 1995. He already has been part of more success — three division titles, two National League pennants and one World Series championship — than many players experience in a lifetime. Jones also has learned to deal with his share of gnawing disappointment, such as losing to the Yankees in the 1966 World Series after winning the first two games and suffering an upset loss to the Florida Marlins in the NL championship series a year ago. "He's still relatively young for the experience he has," Glavine said. "I'm sure he still has a lot to learn. He can still get better as long as he maintains the attitude that he feels he can get better. I think that's the case with most great players."

CLASSROOM CONDUCT 101 图 Story by Sara Anderson Illustrations by Matt Woodruff (USPS 650-640) driving late. Leaving early. Using the seats as a footrest. Wearing sunglasses in class. Reading the University Daily Kansan while the professor lectures. Your mother always told you to mind your manners, and, according to a University of Kansas study, your teachers think you should too. Paul Friedman, associate professor of communications, will be the "Mr. Manners" of KU. His plan to release a small manners pamphlet to incoming students in the fall is waiting for approval from the Human Relations Committee. Faculty manners will be included in the pamphlet as well. "The thing is, people never to each other, I respect you or I don't respect you," but people are always looking for respect," Friedman said. "The signs of respect are in their own minds. There is no universal indicator of respect." Friedman conducted a study of etiquette at the University for both students and faculty. The study coincides with a national debate on student civility in the classroom. According to The Chronicle of Higher Education, the national weekly newspaper covering college administration and teaching, professors are complaining that student deorum is on the decline. Some professors have been physically challenged or threatened by students upset over classroom events. At the University, students and professors say See FACULTY on page 3A huge classes, changing pressures on students and inexperienced graduate teaching assistants, contribute to a lack of civility. Friedman began his study in 1996 by interviewing students. After completing a report on student views of teacher's behavior, the Senate Executive Committee asked him to check faculty members' feelings about student respect. Friedman com- "Basically it's a lot more hurt feelings due to misunderstandings than to deliberate incivility." Friedman said. "For example students putting their feet up in class is a way to get comfortable, whereas teachers feel the students is saying entertain me, or taking a passive role." Recycling program slowed by obstacles By Marc Sheforgen and Graham K. Johnson msheforgen@kansan.com gihoelson@kansan.com Kansan staff writers As the semester winds down and campus recycling bins start to overflow, many students are worried that the University is only recycling excuses. The campuswide recycling program was started two years ago with the hiring of Victoria Silva, director of the office of resource conservation and recycling. Only in the past month have multipurpose recycling bins appeared on campus. Holly Krebs, a member of next year's Student Environmental Advisory Board, is concerned with the slow progress of the program. "If you just look around the campus, we don't have recycling bins," Krebs said. "A lot of stuff that could be recycled is just getting thrown away." Grey Montgomery, 1996-1997 student body president, said that during his term as president, he helped pass funding to get the program started. He said that he was disappointed with the pace that the program had moved. “It’s moved slower than I would have expected,” he said. “It was sort of my understanding that we were going to have more of a full-scale program this year than I have witnessed.” Silva admitted that the program was a little behind schedule but noted that problems have hindered development. The first 50 multipurpose recycling bins were to arrive in February but were damaged and were sent back. The bins did not return to campus until late March, Silva said. She also said she has had to rely on other people, such as facilities operations personnel, to help install the bins. "We don't have the ability to snap our fingers and say, 'You over there, stop what you're doing and put these recycling bins in.' It doesn't work that way," Silva said. "When you're sharing certain resources, you kind of have to get in line and take your turn." Many people do not fault Silva for the problems, but point to the apparent lack of support from the administration. "I think she's had to struggle with the administration, and they obviously haven't been working together as they could," Krebs said. In terms of administration funding, the University does not measure up to some of its peer institutions. The University of Colorado receives $350,000 from the administration alone, said Jack Bell, director of Colorado's recycling service. Julia Nichols, manager of the office of waste reduction and recycling at the University of North Carolina, said that at Chapel Hill, the administration does out about $265.00 for recycling efforts. Theresa Klinkenberg, director of administration at the University, said that this year, the administration pro- See FOUNDING on page 3A Crowd of 5,000 rocks to the sounds of Day on The Hill By Tamara Miller and Chris Horton tmiller@kansan.com chorton@kansan.com Kansan staff writers Venezuelan funkmeisters, dancing cows and inflatable snakes entertained about 5,000 people Saturday on Campanile Hill. Day on The Hill ran smoothly and was successful overall, said John Orcutt, Hutchinson senior and Student Union Activities live music coordinator. It also featured vendors, student group booths, and between-set record spinning by various KJHK on-air personalities. Soul Coughing went on stage at about 5:30 p.m. as the headliner for the event. As the band played, some audience members got on their feet and came to the stage, though several stayed sitting on the hill. Soul Coughing played for about an hour and performed Super Bon Bon and True Dreams of Wichita. And yes, he has been to Wichita. "You people sitting on the hill look like a stoner PTA meeting," said M. Doughty, vocalist and guitarist for the band. "Not that that's bad!" around their microphone stands were inflatable snakes of different colors and sizes. Farmer's Ball winner 2 Player Option opened the musical festivities at noon with its version of 1970s arena. Curled "I think the best part was playing through that sound system," said Rattlesnake Jimmy Coolz, the band's drummer. "I felt like a rock star." Chris Coharski, Lawrence sophomore, came to see 2 Player Option after watching their Farmer's Ball performances. During The Believe It Or Nots! performance, a dancing cow emerged, who threw candy into the audience and tried to coax people to dance. Chad Saddoris, Bartleson, Okla. sohomore, was that cow. "2 Player Option is awesome," Coharski said. "I would call them butt-rockers." 1 was impressed," Leckron said. "The little kids know how to do it." The rockabilly sounds of Fear and Whiskey inspired a group of swing dancers in front of the stage. Brad Leckron, the band's bass player, enjoyed the frenzied crowd. said. "I would call them butt-rockers." The Believe It Or Not! Nots placed next and Ben Burton, Ocean, N. J., freshman, was one of the dancers. "I came out to see the other bands too, but I really liked the swing music." Burton said. Junior Barnard, Fear and Whiskey guitarist and vocalist and associate professor of English, said the band's set went well. "You get a lot of puzzled looks," Barnard said. "It's kind of a different crowd. A lot of the people who usually come out to see us like to swing舞, but it was a blast." The Creature Comforts performed in stylish suits to a growing crowd at about 3 p.m. Lead vocalist and guitarist Chris Tolle said that the weather conditions and crowd appreciation made the band's show worthwhile. PENN STATE UNIVERSITY "The kids up front ruled," Tolle said. "They liked pop even though they were wearing Korn shirts." The lesser-known funk sounds of Caracas, Venezuela's Los Amigos Invisables brought hundreds of people to their feet for a dance fiesta. "The women are beautiful here," said lead singer Julio Briceno about the audience at the band's third U.S. performance. "We're not a rock band," he said. "We just love for people to dance and have fun." Between sets, jocks from KJHK spun dance, rock, hip-hop, soul and polka tunes for the crowd. Orcutt said that Day on The Hill would continue to work with KJHK in the future. Having more student booths is a goal for next year, he said. "I think we got some really good things started this year," he said. Day on the Hill brought Soul Coughing to Lawrence on West Campanile Hill. The annual event held Saturday featured six bands along with vendors, onsite message, KJHK and several special interest groups.

CAMPUS Group to use phallic props during political protest Don't be surprised if you see two 8-foot phalli on Jayhawk Boulevard today. Four members of a group called the Pluggies Incorporated will carry the chicken-wire and papier-mache penises across campus from 12:15 to 12:30 p.m., said a University of Kansas student who is a member of the group. The student said that anonymity was essential for the group, which he described as an agit-prop collective. "When we do anything, we dress in black and ski masks," the student said. The phalli are painted like missiles that resemble nuclear-arms-bearing heads of state. The group is protesting the absurdity of a global capitalist war economy. The student said that the group, made up of students and nonstudents, had been working on the project since spring break. — Laura Roddy University to receive research, training grants The U.S. Department of Energy has awarded a $104,000 grant to the University's department of physics for research in heavionuclear physics. The University of Kansas will receive a pair of federal grants for research and educational training, Kansas Sen. Pat Roberts announced Friday. The special education department has been awarded a $220,000 grant from the U.S. Department of Education for doctoral and postdoctoral training of special-education personnel. Raymond Ammar, chairman of the physics department, said the grant would go toward pure research, designed to increase understanding of nuclear physics with no particular application in mind. "It will support graduate students and their research, and in that regard it is important to the department," Ammar said. Ammar said Stephen Sanders, professor of physics, headed the team that is performing the heavy-ion nuclear research. Jerry Bailey, director of research and education administration, said the grant would support four graduate students and two post-doctoral students working under Wayne Sailor, senior scientist in education research, and Tom Skirtic, professor of special education. "These are relatively good grants, in terms of the amount," Bailey said. "So the department ought to be able to attract some really high-caliber students and post-docs." — Brandon Copple Board of Regents director resigns, takes new position Stephen Jordan, executive director of the Board of Regents, said Friday that he would resign his position to become president of East em Washington University in Cheney, Wash. In a Friday press release, Regents Chair- In a Friday press release, Regents Chairman Bob Talkington praised Jordan. "While the Board is sorry to see him leave Kansas, we recognize that this is an excellent opportunity and a definite step forward for Steve." Talkington said. As executive director, Jordan supervised Regents staff, which advises and assists the Regents in its role as the governing and policy-making body for the state's six public universities. While Jordan was executive director, the Regents implemented the Vision 2020 strategic development plan, curriculum standards for Kansas high school students and tuition accountability for the University of Kansas and two other research universities. Jordan began as the Regents' executive director in 1994. Before that, he served as deputy executive director of the Arizona Board of Regents. He holds a doctorate degree in public policy from the University of Colorado. Individual gets award for relaying tips to police The individual who called Crimestoppers with information regarding the 1997 Robert Baldwin murder was rewarded with $1,000 Thursday night. Lawrence police officer Tom Moore, Crimetestoppers coordinator, said the Crimetestoppers board decided Thursday that the information that was given deserved the maximum award Douglas County Crimestoppers can give. underneath an I-70 overpass in northeast Douglas County. Moore said the information given helped the Douglas County Sheriff's Department obtain a warrant for the arrest of Deon Hale, the suspect in the murder case. Moore said it was not difficult to to convince the board to give the maximum award, which never had been given before. "We just told them what the information was and what it regarded to, and they made the decision," Moore said. Moore said that neither he nor any of the board's 18 members knew the identity of the caller. He said he could not reveal any specifics of the information the caller had given Moore said that Crimeestoppers obtained the money used for caller rewards through donations from the community. He said he could not discuss how the caller would gain access to the award. "We keep the way we do it secret, too," he said. "If you let that out, you lose the anonymity of the program." Robert Baldwin was found dead July 23 Gun goes off during fight finger butts in the way Lawrence police responded April 26 to a fight in the 900 block of Michigan Street that resulted in a man discharging his firearm. The bullet shot off a man's finger and struck a woman in the buttocks but did not injure her, said Sgt. George Wheeler. Wheeler said that the shooting happened at 3:05 a.m., after the suspect, a 29-year-old Lawrence man, returned to his apartment complex. "The suspect got into an altercation with a group of people over parking spaces," Wheeler said. "He went to his apartment and retrieved a pistol, whereupon he got into another argument with the same group." Wheeler said the argument escalated into a fistfight, during which the man's gun discharged, removing his left index finger. The bullet then went through the wall and the ceiling that separated two apartments and struck a woman in the buttocks, Wheeler said. The victim, a 23-year-old Lawrence woman, was not hurt, he said. "The bullet causes a hole in her jeans, but does not break the skin." Wheeler said. "It's pretty much spent by then." The suspect's finger was not recovered, Wheeler said. He said the suspect was not arrested, and the investigation was not completed. "They're still trying to sort this one out," he said. String of car thefts leads police to suspect connection Six University of Kansas students' cars were broken into in an 18-hour span Tuesday and Wednesday, Lawrence police said. Sgt. George Wheeler said that police thought the cases could be related. "We're looking into the possibility that they might be connected because of the similar modes of operation," he said. The mode of operation, or method of entry, in each of the six cases was a shattered window to the interior. Several pieces of electronic equipment were stolen from inside the vehicles, police reports show. Damages estimates ranged from $45 to $500, the reports said. Four of the thefts happened between 11 p.m. Tuesday and 6 p.m. Wednesday between the 1300 block of Kentucky Street and the 1700 block of Ohio Street. The other two thefts occurred between the 1900 and 2000 blocks of Stewart Street. briefs by Ronnie Wachter CORRECTION ET CETERA The University Daily Kansan is the student newspaper of the University of Kansas.

Monday, May 4, 1998 The University Daily Kansan --- Section A·Page 3 Child psychology pauses for delays Department to move at end of semester By Emily C. Forsyth eforsyth @kansan.com Kansan staff writer The clinical child psychology program was scheduled to move from Joseph R. Pearson Hall on May 1, but the move has been delayed until after the spring semester, said Michael Roberts, director of the program. Roberts said the move had been postponed until early June, allowing students and faculty to finish the semester uninterrupted. The postponement came because of a delay in the bidding for removal of lead and asbestos from the building. The program's offices in JRP include teaching areas for graduate students and the KU Child and Family Services Clinic, which provides mental health services to the public. The program originally was located jointly in the Dole Human Development Center and Fraser Hall and moved to JRP in 1993. Roberts said that four or five years ago, during initial discussions about the renovation, the clinical child psychology program was scheduled to move back into JRP once the work was complete. However, because of a lack of space, the program will find a permanent home on the second floor of the Dole Center. "When they really got down to architectural planning, there was no space there," Roberts said. Roberts said the delay would allow both students and teachers to finish the semester without interruption. "We're teachers, and we've got classes going on," Roberts said. "To pack up before the end of the semester would have Sarah Sifers, Leawood graduate student and clinic associate, said the delay was a relief. been rough." "I're nice because it won't fall in the middle of finals," Sifers said. "We are all students in addition to being clinic associates. Most of us are conducting research and working as well." Roberts said he was pleased with the new location. "Moving to the Dole building made a lot of sense," Roberts said. "There are very compatible departments and programs in the building already close by." Sifers said the new space in the Dole Center would be an adjustment for the program. "We will have reduced space," she said. "The University has said that we will get more space when it becomes available." When the School of Education moves into the renovated JRP Hall in the year 2000, space will open up in Bailey Hall. "We're teachers, and we've got classes going on. To pack up before the end of the semester would have been rough." Michael Roberts program director The College of Liberal Arts and Sciences is scheduled to move to Bailley. For now, the 15 students and five faculty and staff members in the clinical child psychology program will pack up and move to the Dole Center. "We think that there will be very few interruptions in our clinical activities," he said. "We anticipate very few difficulties in making the shift." Roberts said. Policy on intellectual property on display Board of Regents draft can be viewed during public-comment forum By Gerry Dayle and Brandon Coplep gdoyle@kansan.com bcapple@kansan.com Kansan staff writers The policy was drafted by a task force made up of Regents staff, faculty, students and administrators from the Regents institutions. The policy would govern copyrights, trademarks and ownership of course materials and other intellectual property created by faculty, staff or students at the state's universities. Intellectual property is any creative work, such as books, papers and computer programs, created by faculty or other University employees. The policy provides for joint ownership of intellectual property created by faculty. Faculty who created intellectual property would retain ownership of the content, while the University would own the form. The University and faculty member would share revenues produced by faculty-created intellectual property. Thus, if a faculty member created a Web site containing course materials, the University would own the rights to the site itself, while the faculty member would retain ownership of the materials posted on the site. "I think it has all the elements of a workable policy," Draper said. "The Larry Draper, professor of microbiology and president of faculty senate, said the idea of sharing ownership was a good compromise. intent of the proposal is honest and straightforward." Provost David Shulenburger said tomorrow's forum was designed to give everyone involved a good idea of what the policy contains and what it means to the interested parties. Shulenburger said the latest draft of the policy was solid and that there probably would be few elements of controversy. "The draft policy circulated last summer got a fairly severe reaction," Shulenburger said. "When you're not sure who's going to own something, you're reluctant to invest in it. The only real controversial item is courseware — faculty would own the content, the University would own the form." Shulenburger said that the Regents asked for a forum at every university to gather feedback. "They want to consider it for a first reading in May," he said. "If there are major changes, they can hold final approval." The policy also addresses ownership of intellectual property created by students. Students would retain the rights to works created in University courses. The University would, however, have the right to physically possess and display student works. The University would own works created by students employed by the University or working for a faculty member. Partha Mazumdar, Pittsburgh, Pa. graduate student, said students should attend the forum, but that so far, the policy was acceptable because it gave students ownership rights for most of the work they did. "It's just phat for students," he said. "But it's still important to raise whatever concerns students have. It seems a little esoteric, but it's something that could affect anyone." Funding hampers recycling program Continued from page 1A vided $172,000 to the recycling program. That number was up from years past because of a one-time grant from the Coca-Cola contract. Next year, the administration funding is expected to drop back to $113,000. Lindy Eakin, associate provost, said that comparing the University's funding to other schools does not reflect the administration's commitment to recycling because those programs had been established longer. Colorado's program has been around since 1976, and North Carolina's was established in 1988. But Matt Bachand, Yorktown, Va., senior, said the most significant factor contributing to the University's failure to keep up with other schools was a weakness in environmental policy in the state of Kansas. "Kansas doesn't have a very sound way of thinking ecologically, and that's reflected in the student body." he said. Whereas some states such as North Carolina have laws requiring the recycling of specific materials, Kansas has no such laws. Those states that do have specific recycling laws are therefore forced to support state university recycline efforts. Don Brown, representative for the Kansas Department of Health and Environment, said that instead of laws, Kansas focuses on encouraging recycling with grants. But Brown said he was not aware of any such grants being given to the University. Bachand said he thought Silva was not the one to blame for the slow development of the University's recycling program. "Given what she has, and frankly, a pretty stingy state, I think she's doing a good job," he said. Mark Bradshaw, Student Environmental Advisory Board member, said more people needed to stop complaining about the system and instead press the administration and get involved themselves. "If people are disappointed, I'd say, get involved and, you won't be disappointed," he said.

SAN ANTONIO EXPRESS-NEWS Editorial KU administrators, students should work to improve University The administration's first responsibility is to listen to and meet students' needs. It has made many promises of improving campus life for students, and it should follow through. For example, it has promised an easier, more up-to-date enrollment system. With this system, students eventually would enroll online, an important step in bringing the University into the 21st century and serving the needs of students. The school year is almost finished, but many things at the University of Kansas remain uncompleted. Students and administrators have responsibilities that they should give priority to next year. Students' needs also can be better met by having a more diverse University. When Chancellor Robert Hemenway arrived, he promised to increase the number of minority faculty at the University from 125 to 200 by the year 2000. This was an admirable goal, but by December of 1997 he had hired only nine new minority faculty, bringing the total to 134. The administration should make every effort to reach this goal of 200 minority faculty and strive to bring in even more. This would improve the quality of education for all KU students and provide diverse views and ideas. Similarly, the University should work to increase the diversity of the student population. Of course, it is a difficult task to make a predominantly Caucasian university and city attractive to prospective minority students, but it can be done if enough effort is put forth. Additionally, the administration should strengthen the advising system, making advisers more available to students and ensuring that new students are aware of the opportunities at the University. Better communication simply would help students know what options are available. Meeting students' needs, community unity, better communication should be priorities The administration also should make an effort to hire the most qualified Graduate Teaching Assistants available. GTAs teach many classes and almost all students have had to depend on at least one GTA to help improve their educations. Consequently, because the University does depend so heavily on GTAs, it should treat them as employees worthy of all of the benefits granted to most state employees. One last request in order to make students a little happier: The powers that be should improve the food selection at Wescoe Terrace. This food court in Wescoe Hall has overpriced, less-than-adequate food that many students eat simply for the convenient location. As one of the major lunch stops for students and faculty, it should have meals actually worth eating. The administration isn't the only one with responsibilities — students also have important responsibilities next year. Some of the goals we have discussed for the administration could be much more easily achieved with more student effort. Students should go to their advisers when they have problems or questions, not just during enrollment. Advising is an interactive process that only will be effective if students take the initiative. Also, if students want specific professors to be their advisers, they should request it, not just blindly accept what the administration gives them. When students have a problem with the University, they should speak with administrators, faculty and student senators to see if the problem can be fixed. If students do not make their views known, then problems will persist. Thousands of students could be experiencing the same problems, but no one would realize students' desires if they do not speak up. The University is part of the Lawrence community, and students should get involved in it. They should take time for local politics and consider things like bike lanes and citywide transportation because these are issues that will affect them, or at least students just like them in the future. Involvement in local charities and community groups could help students feel that Lawrence really is their home, not just a temporary, four-year stop between their childhood home and their future career. Many greek organizations have set impressive precedents by donating time and money to local charities through programs like the Rock Chalk Revue. Other student organizations have joined with Lawrence residents and dedicated their time to local causes, such as the effort to stop the South Lawrence Trafficway and to create a city-wide public transportation system. If every KU student showed such dedication, the Lawrence community would be inundated with volunteers, and the bond between it and the University would be the strongest it ever has been. Working together, the administration and students could improve education, student-professor relations and life for everyone at the University. 211 Paul Eakins for the editorial board Kansan staff News editors Paul Eakins ...

Perspective Abused woman shows fear, admirable strength the power some men have over women isn't fair. They can rip apart selfesteem, safety and pride with a slap across the cheek. Heard that before? We all have, but it's not everyday when the scary reality of domestic abuse pounds on your front door. Lindsey Henry thenry@kansan.com P As I got ready for school the other morning, I heard someone beating on my neighbor's door. Strange, I thought, to be banging on the door so early in the day, but I didn't think more about it and continued to dry my hair. Then the banging was on my front door. I headed to the door and peeked through my peep hole to I opened the door and she apologetically explained that her boyfriend had hit her and pushed her and her children out of his car. She cried as she asked to come in and use my phone to call someone ... anyone. I silently ushered her into my apartment, gave her the phone and watched as a complete stranger's world fell apart at my kitchen table. She asked for a phone book, and I obliged. Furiously, she dialled again and again, getting a busy signal from the women's shelter in my neighborhood. Frustrated, she glanced at the ashtrays around the apartment and asked if I smoked, and if she could have a cigarette. I fumbled around looking for my cigarettes, only to remember I was out. I apologized several times — I wanted to help her in any way; I felt I failed her with nothing to give. So I offered her and her daughter something to drink. They accepted, and she returned to the phone. I played with the little girl as the mother, I couldn't have been more than a year see who was demanding attention. A woman stood there, hitting my door, with a baby asleep in a carrier and a little girl at her side. Tears gushed down her cheeks. older than me, punched the numbers in the phone, breathing heavily and muttering to herself as she found no one to help her —no one except me, someone who had no idea what she was doing, someone who wanted to help but had no idea how. The little girl, smiling and dancing around, seemed unfazed and much calmer than me or her mom. I wondered if she was used to this situation, if it had happened before. About 20 minutes after the family entered my apartment, the pounding on my door started again. The woman grabbed her kids, ran into my bedroom and slammed the door, whispering "we're not here," afraid her boyfriend had followed her. But everything wasn't OK. It is not OK for a mother and her children to be forced to run to a complete stranger for help. It's not OK for a little girl to act oblivious to a scary situation. It's not OK for a man to threaten a woman and her children. It's wrong, it's scary and it's upsetting to hear about, let alone to witness. Confused and a bit scared, I again peeked through the peek hole, only to see ... a FedEx man. Relieved, I signed for my package and opened my bedroom door to tell the woman that everything was OK. We (she had asked me what I thought she should do) decided to walk to the shelter to make sure they would be safe. I walked her out, and she disappeared into the morning. I left a note on my door with the number of where I'd be if she returned or if she needed anything. I haven't heard anything. I hope she and her kids are all right — looking back I wish I'd called the police or done something more to help. I wanted to make sure they were safe from the man in their lives — the man who had the power to send the mother searching for a stranger's help. At the same time, I wished I'd told her I admired her strength to put any fears aside and search for help in a strange neighborhood. I wondered if I'd have been strong enough to do the same. Henry is an Overland Park junior in journalism and the Kansan editor. Feedback Jaime Young Omaha, Neb., sophomore Quit whining, enjoy the extra bus seat I am writing in response to Shyra Darris column on Thursday in the Kansan. I have the same problem as you do Shyra. Nobody wants to sit by me either. For the longest time I would get off the bus and go to my room and look at myself in the mirror and wonder did I look weird or smell bad. I did this for the entire first semester. When people sat by me, they would keep their feet in the aisle. I even asked someone why he chose not to sit next to me. This is the good part. He told me that he would not sit next to me because of my skin. I was shocked. I asked him to repeat himself, and he did. He said that he would not sit next to me because I was white. Yes, read it again. Chip on shoulder keeps seat empty I can't take it anymore. Correction, I will no longer accept it silently. All of you who are so sensitive and bored that you feel the need to write an article in the Kansan are making me absolutely ill. Lately I haven't had time to read The University Daily Kansan, but on Thursday my roommate threw the paper at me and ordered me to read the latest sob-story of particular students at this University. I was shocked and appalled that the Kansan would allow such whining to be printed. I shook my head in silence, then exclaimed, "Please Lord, make it stop!" I'm tired of people complaining about petty problems. I highly doubt that anyone sitting or standing on the KU buses are worrying and praying for them to sit down next to them. I for one am praying that I don't get squashed in the process of someone trying to make their way to my empty seat. There have been several instances when I am on the bus by myself, and we stop in front of Snow. At least 50 students try to get on. Living at Jayhawker Towers, I know that it is a pain to get off at this stop. So, I let some poor tired student have my seat. It's not that I don't want to sit by them. I am just making it more convenient for myself. Please don't call me insensitive or anything else for that matter. I am just so tired of reading this boo-hoo story of a girl who just wants someone to sit by her on the bus. Honey, it isn't about your color. It isn't even about you. It's about what is convenient at the time. So, buck up, and thank God that you have that wonderful space to stretch out in. OK, now that we all know this isn't true, lets really look at this. Who cares? Maybe the person likes to stand or is lazy and does not want to take his bag off his back, or he is being nice and letting someone else sit there because he doesn't care. No, I have one better than that, he is getting off at the next stop. Is it me or is this ludicrous. Shyra has a chip on her shoulder that needs to be removed if she truly thinks that someone not sitting by her on the bus is racially motivated. Maybe if she took that chip off her shoulder, there would be enough room to sit next to her. Timothy Bateman Lawrence freshman Kansan not biased in Pride Week articles —That The University Daily Kansan is biased and not fairly representing the other side because it omitted their particular viewpoint. (The Kansan also omitted communist, vegetarian, Islamic, and Republican viewpoints. The Kansan objectively reported events of Gay Pride week, then gave its own opinions. Mere disagreement with the radical right is not bias.) — That they detest the sin while loving gay sinners. (It is not love to fire people from their jobs, or repeal laws against thuggery; it is naked hatred.) Kathleen and Marianne Wasson's letter consists of anti-gay cannacks from the radical religious right: — That it is pro-homosexual to support civil rights for everyone to rent a house, hold a job, demonstrate in public, or not be beat up by thugs. (No, that is merely prohuman.) - That their own views are True Biblical Christian and The Christian perspective, (That is simple arrogance. Christianity includes all who accept Christ as savior, many of whom support gay rights.) That they are different from Fred Phelps. (Phelps uses nastier language, but claims to love the sinners and supports the radical right agenda. If there are any differences of substance as opposed to style, the Wassons didn't mention them.) 7 There is another Christian perspective that focuses on how sexuality is experienced, whether it is homosexual, heterosexual or bisexual. Being homosexual is not a sin that requires a change in orientation to be loved by God. Sexuality has to do with how we express our sensuous relationships with ourselves and the environment. Sexuality includes and understanding of what it means to be male or female as informed by our upbringing and societal cultural messages. The challenge is to articulate an ethic of sexuality, including our behavior with others. The primary Biblical ethic prompts us to discern the good of all relationships, regardless of sexual orientation, on the basis of whether they are free of manipulation and facade or unjust and abusive. Is the relationship compassionate and respectful of sexuality as God's gift and the embodiment of our capacity to love? Christian views differ on sexuality David Burress Research economist I wanted to comment on the letter from Kathleen and Marianne Wasson. It was their opinion that The University Daly Kansan should give an unbiased perspective on homosexuality and that this was best done by presenting the true Christian understanding of homosexuality as a detestable sin. I would disagree with such an absolute and rigid condemnation of a sexual orientation. I hope this letter contributes to the much needed conversation on sexuality and that a label of sexual orientation does not define what is a sin.

The prom took place Friday in the Kansas Union. Photo by Eileen Bilee/KANSAN By Carl Kaminski ckaminski@kansan.com Kansan staff writer Senior citizens danced the night away Friday in the Kansas Union Ballroom. The Senior Citizens' Prom was a community service project organized by Sigma Delta Tau and Alpha Gamma Delta sororites and Pi Kappa Alpha and Sigma Nu fraternities. From 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. the participants danced to the music of the Key West Jazz Quartet and enjoyed a refreshment bar, provided by the sponsoring chapters. The prom was free for the senior citizens. The chapters also arranged for a bus to Kansas City for some of the seniors. At the end of the night, a king and queen were crowned and awards were given in categories such as best dancer and cutest couple. Prizes such as an overnight stay at the Holiday Inn and gift certificates donated by local businesses also were raffled off. Ellen and Joe Shumate came from Baldwin City after receiving an invitation to the prom. "We do this kind of thing every now and then," Joe Shumate said. "I think this is a really great idea. They should have more of these." Courtney Bledsoe, Chicago sophomore and event co-organizer, said that the chapters had begun planning the event before winter break and had contacted more than 25 retirement centers. Bledsee said the goal was to make the night as much like a prom as possible. The cost for the event was split among the four chapters. In an effort to save money, the food was reserved for the guests only. "This is costing us a lot more than we expected," said Karen Isley, prom coorganizer and Sylvania, Ohio, junior. The final tab came to about $2,000, she said. "We're not even letting our members eat," Isley said. "But, Coke donated pop so we could drink something," she said. Despite the expense, Isley said the night was worth it. "This is a positive step for the greek community," Isley said. "Ever since they banned four-house functions with alcohol, you don't see four houses working together anymore," she said. "It's good to get to know other people in other chapters doing something good for the community." Isley said she came up with the idea of a senior citizens' prom from her boyfriend, a junior high school teacher. His school had held held a similar event. MayFest to bring KU staff together By Marcelo Vilela mvieleda@kansan.com Kansan staff writer University of Kansas employees are better together. That is what the University's annual MayFest will try to promote when it brings University staff together from 3 to 7 p.m. tomorrow near Potter Lake. Employees who work during the time are invited to attend and are paid for those hours. MayFest is an end-of-the-year, outdoor party to show appreciation for staff and faculty contributions and to promote cohesiveness among KU employees. "It's an opportunity to interact and learn more about your fellow KU employees," said Barb McClain, MayFest chairwoman. Activities will include live music by staff and faculty, displays of staff artwork, crafts or collections, country line dancing, games and children's activities. MayFest is sponsored by contributions from the provost's office. This is the second year for the event, and attendance is expected to be about 2,000 people, McClain said. For MayFest outdoor activities, people are encouraged to dress casually. McClaim said T-shirts with the logo and date of the event would be for sale. MayFest started Saturday with a five-kilometer run, a five-kilometer walk and a two-mile fun run. Yesterday the performance of A Spring Pops Concert, featuring the KU Symphony Orchestra accompanied by the KU Choir in the Lied Center, was free for staff as part of MayFest events. Profiles of a number of University employees are displayed at the Kansas Union and at MayFest's Web page at www.ukans.edu/~uks. "The profiles were Diane Lazzarino's idea." McClain said. "She's a journalism teacher and her writing students wrote the profiles. It's a fun way to share information about people we work with."

This is the sixth consecutive year that Johnson, professor of French, has conducted an all-day tour on Stop Day. Students, faculty, staff and anyone else interested in examining architecture, sculpture gardens and other elements of natural and man-made beauty at the University are welcome. The tour begins at 9 a.m. at the intersection of Jayhawk Boulevard and 14th Street and ends at 5 p.m. in the Arthur D. Weaver Court, adjacent to Spooner Hall. Stops along the way include Lippincott Hall, the Chi Omega Fountain, the Tai Chi Figure outside the Law School and the Vietnam Memorial. In case of bad weather, the tour will begin at 9 a.m. in the portico at Lippincott Hall. People can participate in the entire tour or just drop in at one of the many stops throughout the day. Johnson said that as many as 30 people had walked the tour in past years. Johnson said that the success he experienced in using different elements of the campus in teaching humanities classes had inspired him to lead the tour. The purpose of the tour is not for people to listen to him profess his ideas about the campus, Johnson said. "The idea is to elicit ideas from other people," Johnson said. "The conversations are wonderful. We never know which way they are going to go, but they're inspired by the sites." The conversations are not about the factual histories of the tour sites, Johnson said. The conversations are "The idea is to elicit ideas from other people. The conversations are wonderful." Ted Johnson Professor of French about the intellectual concepts that inspired the sites and the concepts that the sites inspire in the tour participants, he said. Johnson said that students and faculty from many academic disciplines and cultural backgrounds had participated in past years, enhancing the tour for everyone. "If there are 10 or 12 people there, that's hundreds of years of experience," Johnson said. David Cateforis, assistant professor of art history, attended the entire tour last year and said it was time well spent. "Doing the whole thing is worthwhile because then you get to make connections from point to point," he said.

He surveyed 200 students and 200 faculty members, gathering information on what people on both sides of the lectern deemed civil classroom behavior. Participants filled out a survey and a form asking for anecdotes. "We asked students to think of a faculty member who clearly respected them and another faculty member who had disrespected them," Friedman said. "We asked them to describe the behavior that led to these conclusions. Faculty members answered the same questions referring to students." Faculty and staff responses fell into two main categories, he said. "The first dealt with an indication of respect for their status," Friedman said. "For example, if students addressed them by their first name or by their titles. If students presumed more familiarity without asking first, faculty felt disrespected." Some professors also felt that students who wore baseball caps or sunglasses in class were not treating the classroom as a place of dignity and learning. The second category dealt with academics. He said when students did not attend classes, pay attention or make a real effort, it made teachers feel as if students were just focusing on a grade, instead of learning, and showing disrespect. When students used class evaluations for personal attacks, rather than a forum for constructive criticism, that showed incivility as well. Friedman said. William Arnold, associate professor of sociology, said that in his 30 years at the University he only has had one major problem. "Before an exam a student threatened to kill me if I showed up," Arnold said. "I called the police and one of my colleagues showed up to give the exam. They never identified the student." Arnold said nothing like that ever had happened again and the isolated incident did not affect his thoughts on students at the University. Shirley Harkess, professor of sociology said most students are well-behaved. "The only problem I have is when students leave 15 to 20 minutes early in a 50-minute class, but other than that, I don't have any major problems," she said. Some professors thought outside influences could affect student's classroom behavior. Harkess said that student life had changed over the past few years. She said that could be part of what professors see as uncivil behavior. "Students lives are busier with jobs, and school work is not the only focus anymore," she said. "The class students have at 10:30 on Monday, Wednesday, Friday isn't the only thing on their minds anymore." Phil McKnight, professor of teaching and leadership, agreed He said students had different lifestyles today and some student obligations could create problems. "There have always been some students who are very courteous and some who tend to be rebellious," he said. "Students are more preoccupied now with other things and that translates to behaviors towards classes, but that doesn't imply rudeness. For example, if a student is late to class it could be due to a number of things, such as commuting from jobs or dropping off a child at daycare." Jeannette Johnson, assistant to the provost, said there was no central policy on civility in the classroom. Teachers are, in the end, absolute rulers once they close the classroom door. Josh Cooper, Omaha, Neb., junior, said that maturity was a major factor in civility problems at the University. "I was kicked out of a class once my freshman year because I questioned my teacher's ability," he said. "But I have done a complete turnaround. Now that I'm in upper level classes, you just don't see it as much. The older you get the more focused you become." Friedman also surveyed what students did not like about faculty manners. "Students said it mattered if the professor treated everyone equally or played favorites," Friedman said. "Students also said the amount of time and effort teachers put into dealing with the students indicated respect." Friedman said students appreciated teachers who took student comments and questions seriously, who answered questions with courtesy and integrity and who refrained from disparaging students in class. Teachers who were aware of students' emotional sensibilities were regarded highly as well, Friedman said. "Teachers who respected students gave criticism in a polite way in private, where teachers that didn't respect students would do it in front of whole class," Friedman said. "Students also deemed teachers respectful if they were empathetic to emotional events outside of classes. The teachers, who students said didn't respect them, seemed to think that course work was more important than anything happening outside of the classroom." Jessa Hall, Alpine, Utah, sophomore, said that while most of her teachers had been very civil, she had experienced several impolite professors at the University. Friedman said students respected teachers who gave them a fair hearing and heard them out in situations of academic misconduct, rather than concluding the worst. "Sometimes professors do act like questions asked in class are kind of stupid," she said. "Kind of like the 'I'm right because I'm a professor, your wrong,' kind of thing." David Holmes, psychology professor, said class size was a large part of the civility problem and that one classroom in particular posed difficulties. "Apparently Budig 120 has created problems and it appears to be specific to that auditorium," he said. "I've been told that some students talk in the back of the class and will be rather casual when they sit in the balcony. That auditorium seats 1,000 students and I can't really see them in the back." Holmes, who claims to be a passionate lecturer and a teacher who tries to include all his hundreds of students, said the room "I was kicked out of a class once my freshman year because I questioned my teacher's ability." Josh Cooper Omaha, Neb., junior promotes a loose atmosphere. Students, like Cooper, agreed. "I don't think they get the feeling of involvement," Holmes said. "Students describe it a being in an audience. They see it as a theater and treat it that way. Students walk out of the classroom because you can walk out of a theater." "In big classes, students don't care because they don't think the teacher knows them or notices much because the class is so big," he said. "They think they can get away with more." Friedman said GTAs often have more problems than professors. "According to the anecdotal responses, the GTAs have the hardest time because they are dealing with beginning students in required courses that they don't really want to take," Friedman said. "The students also see the slightly lower prestige of the GTAs." However, Jeanne Moyer, a GTA in western civilization and philosophy, said students usually were very civil in her classrooms. "I think the classes I teach are relatively small, so students feel relatively watched," she said. "I have never had any disciplinary problems." Friedman said the manners pamphlet would need to be approved by the Human Relations Committee before distribution and would highlight the main respect indicators from both sides. He said plans for the pamphlet were still in progress. Friedman said the pamphlet would be a quick reminder of the implicit expectations each group has for each other and that, while no pamphlet could speak for everyone, it could at least cover some of the bases and people could fill in their own individual differences. Holmes said he thought the pamphlet was a nice idea but said he doubted if it would have much impact. Friedman said he thought it would make some people think about their actions. "I hope that it makes a little difference and that difference will have a ripple effect," he said. "It will affect some people's behavior and their behavior will affect others indirectly."

"I told him 'you were super last night,' said Hedrick, a lecturer in journalism. "But you made three dumb-ass political statements." Costas, an all-sports television personality and NBC play-by-play announcer, will be on campus tomorrow speaking to broadcast journalism students and the press. His visit is something he and Hedrick have been trying to arrange for years. Hedrick said. "Every time I see him he says, 'When are you going to let me talk to your class? This is the third time he's been scheduled, and he told me he'd be here no matter what," Hedrick said. CITY OF NEW YORK Costas: Will be on campus to speak this week. Hedrick and Costas have been friends since 1975, when Hedrick called University of Kansas football and basketball games and Costas was the radio voice of Missouri. Hedrick had heard good things about Costas, but he had never heard the future star until that year's Big Eight Tournament. Hedrick listened to Costas' call of the Missouri-Oklahoma State game. "I thought, 'Oh God, he's great.'" Hedrick said. "He had the voice, the sentence structure, the syntax, the irreverent humor — the whole package." But he did notice that Costas made several wise cracks about the Missouri program that might be offensive to some in the Missouri Athletics Department. Hedrick, the University of Kansas' play-by-play man at the time, was back at the tournament the next night. He introduced himself to Costas and warned the budding announcer about the political statements. Costas walked away, looking a little shocked, but came back later to thank Hedrick for his candid appraisal. The two broadcasters have been friends since. Hedrick said Costas was one of the best in the business, and broadcast students would benefit from listening to what he had to say about preparation and developing. Chad Speaker, Cimarron graduate student in broadcasting, said he would be interested to hear Costas. "He's one of those world-class communicators," Hedrick said. "I've only heard one other announcer with his genius, and that's Vin Scully." "He's obviously a guy you want to emulate in some ways," Speaker said. "I don't want to become Bob Costas, but I'm sure I can learn a lot from him." Broadcast students in news and sales will get to see for themselves tomorrow at 9:30 a.m. at 200 Dole Human Development Center. At 11 a.m., Costas will address sports-casters and guests in the KUH television studio, and then meet the press at the All-America room in the Adams Alumni Center. Students, center to honor top teachers By Emily C. Forsyth eforsyth@kansan.com Kansan staff writer The Center for Teaching Excellence will recognize 51 outstanding faculty members during a banquet from 5 to 7 p.m. today in the Kansas Union. Fred Rodriguez, director of the center, said that his office contacted each department on campus and asked it to identify at least two graduating seniors. The center then contacted the seniors and asked them to nominate at least one teacher who exemplified outstanding teaching in the classroom. Both the graduating seniors and the teachers were invited to attend the banquet. Chancellor Robert Hemenway and Provost David Shulenburger also will attend. Rodriguez said about 170 guests were invited. "It's kind of unique because the students nominate the faculty." Rodriguez said. "It's one way that we can recognize outstanding teaching on campus." The students will present each teacher with a framed certificate and explain why the teacher is outstanding. Although this is the first year for the banquet, Rodriguez said the center hoped to make it an annual event. James Orr, chairman of the Biological Sciences department, said he was honored that his students nominated him to attend the banquet. "It's an effort by the Center for Teaching Excellence to extend or broaden the recognition of teachers at KU," he said. "It gives you a good feeling to be recognized by the students as a good teacher." Christina Walter and James Hummell, Devano, Minn., senior, nominated their English teacher Michael Butler to attend the banquet after taking his British and American literature class. Walter, 1997 graduate from Wichita, said that Butler was open to the direction his students wanted to take the class. "He was always really passionate about what he was talking about." Walter said. "He was receptive to things that students were saying, and he was open to individual students molding the curriculum to their particular interests." Rodriguez said that this year's banquet focused on teachers of undergraduate students and that next year the focus would be on graduate students and their teachers.

Photo by Roger Nomer/KANSAN Executive staff decides to divide Senate listserv By Melissa Nao Kansan staff writer The Student Senate listserv will change tomorrow. The listserv, at senate[ @raven.cc.ukans.edu, has meeting and event announcements and discussion. The Student Senate executive staff decided Friday that the listserv will be divided. The first listserv will be only for announcements from the Senate executive staff. Anyone who wants an announcement to be posted must talk to Scott Kaiser, student body vice president and listserv moderator. The second listserv will be for discussion. Also, the Student Senate Web site's chat room will have statements from the discussion listserv posted. Any statements posted to the chatroom also will be sent to the discussion listserv. Nicole Skalla, transportation coordinator, said the changes would increase Senate outreach, which was the reason the listserv was created in the fall of 1997. "This will make Senate more accessible," Skalla said. "We'll have fewer problems with people who just want to find out the announcements being frustrated because they have to sort through discussion they don't care about." Matt Bachand, former off-campus senator, said there were problems with creating two listservs. "It creates a distinction between official and unofficial knowledge," he said. "It creates the impression that just because a person is on the executive staff, he knows better than anyone else what's of interest to students." Bachand said this impression might lead to the executive staff becoming a filter for student knowledge.

Unintended consequences could put students at risk for difficulties in social relationships, automobile accidents, sexually transmitted diseases, unwanted pregnancies, fights, academic difficulties and legal trouble, said Randall Rock, physician and chief of staff at Watkins Memorial Health Center. "It's a sobering thought," Rock said. Professionals at Watkins recently participated in an informal survey, in which they estimated the number of students who came to the clinic with problems associated with alcohol. One medical-care provider who responded to the survey estimated that about 17 students a week came to Watkins because of alcohol-related problems. Julie Francis, health educator at Watkins, said it did not take a large quantity of alcohol to change a person's behavior. Statistics show that a 125-pound female may suffer judgment after only one drink, or when the blood alcohol concentration reaches 0.05. After two or three drinks, the blood alcohol concentration may rise to 0.08, the legal limit in Kansas for those 21 years or older, Francis said. "But for those who are under 21, the legal limit is 0.02." Francis said. the legal limit is 0.02," Francis said. Alcohol is a concern throughout the year, Francis said. But during finals, there is one more complication. Rock said drinking was a public- health issue. "If people are studying for finals, it's not real efficient in helping assist with that," she said. "We ask everyone to act responsibly and recognize that alcohol is a toxin. Even at moderate levels, it has the potential to be fatal," Rock said. "This is something that should be factored into everyone's idea of the celebration activity at the end of the semester," he said. Summer school may be a drag for some students, but for others, it can offer opportunities. Gregory Leon Frost, program assistant of Minority Affairs, coordinates the Health Careers Pathways Program. The nationally recognized eight-week program focuses on helping disadvantaged students attain their goals of working in a health-care profession. Program offers path for minorities "The Pathways program is a stairstep program from the earliest level up to entering into the School of Medicine," Frost said. "It is designed to increase the numbers of qualified disadvantaged students going into the medical professions." Frost said that during the year, he recruited students from across the nation to participate in the program. He said requirements included a 2.5 minimum grade point average, an interest in a medical career, a disadvantaged background and/or being a member of an underrepresented group in the health field. JOHNNY'S TAVERN LAWRENCE / KANSAS CITY Crystal Smith, Kansas City, Kan., senior, participated in the program last year and was selected again this year. She said the experience was worthwhile. Students also must submit two letters of recommendation, Frost said. "It's a great program and really beneficial," she said. "I feel really fortunate to have been selected. I wouldn't have applied again if I didn't think it had benefited me." By Sara Anderson sanderson@kansan.com Kansan staff writer HSEI II is similar to the first session, but it focuses on strengthening the academic competitiveness of the participants. Students take classes in English, chemistry, physics, calculus and organic chemistry. The second session also deals with helping students develop the survival skills necessary to master the The program has three sections — the Health Science Enrichment Institute, sessions one and two, and the Pre-Admissions Program. The institute is open to college freshmen and is designed to provide students with an educational background in the medical field. HSEII includes diagnostic testing, skill development in reading, communication and course work in mathematics, biology, chemistry, physics and English. The course also emphasizes test-taking strategies, listening and time and stress-management skills. medical-school environment. Courses are taught by professors or graduate students. Frost said. "Every Wednesday night, we have a mandatory meeting where we bring in physicians of color from local areas." Frost said. "It helps students to see someone like them already out there. It provides them the opportunity to hear about their experiences in school and sets up role models and contacts for later." FREE BURGER! The project is financed by national grants and the University of Kansas Medical Center. Participating students attend the programs at no cost. The Pre-Admissions Program is open to college juniors and seniors. The program's goal is to facilitate the entry of disadvantaged students into the University of Kansas School of Medicine. Students prepare to take the MCAT exam through the University of Kansas Medical Center and practice interview skills for applying to medical school. "It keeps you motivated and makes you think you have a chance," she said. "I was exposed to things I wouldn't have been otherwise. It's a great program."

College very typically is a time of questioning." timothy miller chairman of the department of religious studies The University of Kansas instituted a policy of linear tuition to prevent students from "less shopping." students from class shopping. Instead of deciding on a course of action and sticking with it, the University was worried that students would instead search for the classes with the best fit. But what does a student do when he or she is looking for religion? To some, religion is a way to help relieve life's stress. Between dealing with professors, evil work schedule-makers and various robe-clad sidewalk cults, a person scarecely can get through a day. Andrea Gross, Lawrence junior and member of Campus Christians, said that in many cases, religion gave her the rock she needed to cling to when weathering the college storm. "Sometimes. God is all you have to hold onto," Gross said. "A Christian is who I am, a student is what I do." "I think I definitely can be standing strong in my beliefs and going to KU," she said. While being religious helped her, it didn't take away from being a student, she said. She said that the University and religion were not mutually exclusive. Rev. Thad Holcombe of Ecumenical Christian Ministries said that the inquisitive nature of college shouldn't just apply to meeting new people and trying new flavors of beer. He said the wealth of information at the University should work to the advantage of a student looking for religion. "Faith is so dynamic," he said. "In the first year, you can stop there. Sometimes parental overviews aren't synonymous. Then they can step back and evaluate their faith. I'm concerned that they don't." Students seeking a personalized God shouldn't give up hope in finding Him, Holcombe said. Being spiritual should involve more than just watching televangelists early Sunday morning. As a result, students should talk to people, take classes and above all, keep their minds open, he said. "There's a whole other group that comes here with no tradition and they start looking at all the others," Holcombe said. "They need to take their spirituality and expand it, get connected with others. Some people are drawn to answers. I think they should raise up their questions." Holcombe said that religious studies and campus ministries were the best choices for students searching for an Oread oracle. Timothy Miller, chairman of the department of religious studies, said that many college students usually became less devout in practicing religion after they entered the realm of house parties. Western Civ exams and taverns. "Typically, statistically, college students don't go to church as much," he said. "College very typically is a time of questioning." While religion might go on some students' back burners, Miller didn't advocate religious studies as the way to stumble onto a tailor-made Messiah. "Religious studies wouldn't really address that," he said. "Religious studies are comparable to studying English or history." Kelly Liebengood, Lawrence graduate student, said that his conversion wasn't as much going from zero to Christian as it was realizing his mfa faith. "I would say everyone's religious," he said. "They all believe in something. A lot of people grow up in a Christian household without grasping it for themselves. But one of the great things about the University is different experiences." He said that University life, while full of potentially immoral activities, didn't push religion into the background. It is possible to be a good student and a good Christian. Liebengood said, but that it is becoming more of a challenge. "It's definitely possible, but it's becoming more and more difficult," he said. "There is very much an anti-Christian mentality in education. It's harder to express my viewpoint - everyone's tolerant unless it's Christian." Matt Judd, Tecumseh junior is an atheist. He said that his non-belief really surfaced five or six years ago as he thought more about the issue. He said that his rejection of redemption wasn't an all-of-a-sudden kind of thing. "It wasn't really a turning point, I was just gradually heading in that direction," he said. "There were lots of reasons. There was nothing ever to lead me to believe that there was a God." As far as scrambling for a perfect prophet, Judd said that for some, religion and student life could fit together like a well-mixed tequila sunrise. "It's totally dependent on what you want," he said. "It's really easy to be sheltered in early life. Here, there are new experiences." You make the call: Seemingly hundreds of religious flavors can fill college students' heads wh they leave the religious their parents built. Illustration by Bryan Volk/KANSAN After highly successful semester, it's time for goodbye By Bryan Volk bvolk@kanans.com Features editor HillTopics groupies reload for more fun Time for some shameless self-promotion ... The Spring semester is hereby finished, as far as we at HillTopics are concerned. You see, our real love is not going to class or studying; instead we live to bring you, our loyal readers, the best that campus and community have to offer. Our professors are thrilled. Before you begin to weep bitter tears of loss, understand one thing: Nobody is going anyplace. Well, that's not entirely true, but I wanted to let you down easy. Let me break it down for you. Kristie Blasi, one of our fearless managing editors, is leaving. "Who is Kristie?" you are asking yourself. Shame on you, gentle reader! Just kidding. Blasi: Take her plate first or you'll get "the Look." Kristie was the behind-the-scenes language (and etiquette) expert who made sure that a minimum of errors made it into your hands two or three days a week. Kristie is graduating. Apparently she never received the memo about the "Kansan for Life" club. She's headed to the Pacific Northwest to work at the Oregonian. More exciting than that is her plan to drive through six state capitals on her way to the rain-soaked area. It's an obsession of hers. What's important, though, is that she is going to be dearly missed, as she has been a staple at the *Kansan* since 1981. She started out in the mailroom stuffing inserts. That's not true. Tim Harrington, the world's Greatest Lover and associate features editor, also is leaving, but he is not going far. In fact, he is remaining an "ass-o-cate" and will be sitting on the other side of Features/Opinion Island. Once Ann Premer took over elder statesman Andy Obermueller's vacated seat, Tim realized that I wasn't the prettiest girl he had ever seen, and because Ann will be returning as the editor of the Harrington: Mr. Suave thinks he's too good for you Opinion page, Tim jumped ship. I think he also was sick of doing all the work. He promises that he still will write for Hill-Topics, so step away from that window. Slowly, now, no sudden movements. There. Don't you feel better? Bryan Volk (time for some third-person writing), this semester's editor and driving force behind the page, is not going anywhere! [raucous applause and cheering] He did get the memo and in fact is a charter member of KFL. Because of his risqué ideas and less-than-orthodox design standards, he has been asked to step down and fill Tim's void. Sort of. Bryan still will not be doing any work. Because he will be taking a massive pay cut (so long yacht, so long limbo driver, so long Volk: To the dismay of his parents, he never will graduate penthouse suite), he no longer will feel guilty about delegating ... everything and can concentrate on his studies. That's not true. The studying part I. mean. Lindsey Henry, this semester's highly successful editor of the *Kansan* will follow in Bryan's footsteps (in title only). After a semester of holding campaise by the ... hand and giving it all the news it needed, she couldn't bring herself to relinquish all her —of ideas for the fall semester. Because she is smart, organized, knows reporting like Bryan knows leisure and is much better looking than Tim (this power. We at Hill- Topics couldn't have happier to have her grace our desk with her presence. She plans to hit the ground running and has hundreds — no, thousands P. M. BALCOTT Henry:The saving grace for next semester. door opens both ways), the remaining Hill- tonics staff couldn't be more excited. So that's the lowdown. It'a little more complicated than I let on at first, but I think that was better for you in the long run.

Williams' face lit up with an ear-to-ear smile. He had already called Rush on the phone to tell him he was no longer a Kansas basketball prospect after Rush had questioned Williams' coaching style on a Kansas City radio talk show. Williams spoke carefully, explaining a world with which he doesn't agree. The saga of Coach Williams and Rush, a basketball idol from Kansas City's Pembroke Hill Academy, showed the flaws in a recruitment system where shoe company summer camps rule and allow unqualified, opportunistic coaches to over-inflate the egos of 18-year-old prodigies. "Up until the past couple years, I have enjoyed recruiting," Williams said. "But I don't enjoy it in 99.9 percent of the cases now. It's always been hard, and it's always been a little demeaning and distasteful." "If it wasn't for that part of it, I would work for minimum wage and be the happiest guy in the world," Williams, who makes $113,850 a year plus revenue from a Nike shoot contract and summer camps, said. "But because of that, there's not enough money to pay me to where you feel it's worth putting up with some of the stuff that has occurred recently." COMPLETE KORE The Importance of Summer Basketball Until the early 1980s, college basketball stars signed college letters of intent after the high school season finished in the spring. But in the mid 80s, the NCAA changed those rules to allow for an early period in the fall and a four week evaluation period in the summer when college coaches could recruit incoming high school seniors. That turned summer basketball into the most important part of the college recruiting process—the first crack at high school stars. Jaron Rush, a high school senior at Pembroke Hill Academy in Kansas City, Mo., was ranked as the top player in his class by HooScoop Magazine by the time he was in eighth grade. Soon the importance of shoe company sponsored summer events like the Nike All-American camp and the Adidas ABCD camp increased. These summer camps brought the best players together for Division I coaches. As pressure became greater on high school players to play in summers, high school athletic federations made "They didn't want to make all the kids have to play all summer with their coaches or be at a competition advantage." Mike DeCourcy, college basketball writer for The Sporting News, explained. "But that took the qualified educators out of the process." Those NCAA and the high school association rules have turned summer amateur basketball into a high stakes game of b ing money "Just as IBM and Apple are competing to be the computer of choice in high schools by donating equipment across the country, we are looking for loyalty from our consumer, the athlete," Nike representative Vizhier C. Mooney said. Shoe companies like Reebok, Adidas and Nike flood large amounts of money into summer basketball with hopes of building product allegiance with the young stars. Today, approximately 230 NBA players, 70 WNBA players and 193 NCAA college athletic programs wear Nike products alone. Michael Johnson, an Oklahoma State freshman forward who played two summers ago with Rush on the Kansas City 76ers, said he thought Nike had built a relationship with him. "Nike sponsored us with shoes and uniforms so we helped them whenever we could," Johnson said. "I feel an allegiance to them even now because they helped me in the past." "There are AAU coaches out there asking for handouts, but I don't think you can legislate morality," Oklahoma coach Kelvin Sampson said. "I hope college coaches keep their ethics and morals in the process so the wrong people don't have influence over the process." This constant flow of money leads to the dark side or sports, some coaches said, with unregulated third party summer coaches peddling their influence and controlling the recruiting process throughout the summer recruiting period Of course, a shoe company wants the best players at its camps, and attracting these players involves contact with third party middlemen, their summer coaches. These summer coaches are not regulated by the NCAA or any state high school athletic associations. Critics said talent brokers often do not live up to the same standards as high school or college coaches. "It doesn't make sense to take the qualified educator out of the process," said Steve Buek, former basketball coach at St. Thomas Aquinas High School in Kansas City. "They are left with a situation where the lowest common denominator controls."

He was crisscrossing the country on the traveling team. Top high school players like Rush spend four weeks each summer jetting across the country to various camps and tournaments, sponsored by shoe companies. College coaches take in the action, scouting potential athletes. The shoe companies pay summer coaches to deliver athletes to their camps in hopes of building a bond between the star and the brand. As an eighth grader, HoopScoop Magazine named Rush the best player in his class, and Grant chose to pick up Rush's tuition at the prestigious Kansas City private school, Pembroke Hill Academy. The 76ers attracted other nationally ranked high school players like Corey Maggette of Chicago and Korleone Young of Wichita With the team went a Nike endorsement deal for their coach, Myron Piggie, a man once indicted by a federal grand jury on charges of drug trafficking and assaulting a federal agent.

The wins snapped a seven-game losing The wins snapped a seven-game losing streak for the Jayhawks. Kansas (20-29) won Friday night behind grand slam in the fifth inning and strong relief pitching from Les Walrond. Walrond was dominant in six and one-third innings, striking out eleven while upping his record to 4-5. KU Center fielder Clint Wyrick tied a school record with five hits, including a three-run home run. Wedd: Hits a grand slam against Kansas State On Saturday, first baseman Randy Case. Philbrick, who evened his record at 3-3, allowed just two runs and four hits while smashed a three-run home run in the top of the 10th inning, and Rusty Philbrick closed out a 10-inning, complete-game victory. Kansas State pitcher Pat Hertzel outdueled Kansas pitchers Dan Auckland and Brian Schriner yesterday. Kansas made a late charge in the top of the ninth. The Jayhawks had loaded the bases with no outs when first baseman Randy Case hit a sacrifice fly to center. KU Case: Hits a three-run home run against Kansas State. Kansas's hopes were dashed when center fielder Clint Wyrick attempted to tie the game and was caught running to home plate after a pitch squirted away from Kansas State catcher Yancey Avres. All hopes for a sweep were killed when designated hitter Wedd popped a lazy fly to center that was caught by Kansas State's Brian Bobier. Schriner worked three perfect innings in relief, and starter Auckland also threw well, allowing two runs on five hits in five innings. Third baseman Paul Levins batted lead-off and had two hits in four at bats, while Case drove in the Jayhawk's only run of the contest. The Jayhawks finished in last place in the Big 12 Conference with a 7-20 record and won just 12 of 28 games against Division I schools. ■ Kansas is scheduled to play its final games of the season against St. Collegeast on Saturday at Hoglund-Maupin Stadium. The Jayhawks will play a doubleheader beginning at 2 p.m. NFL dreams dwindle for former Kansas running back Since the age of 6, Eric Vann's future always has been crystal clear — to play football. By Jodi Smith Special to the Kansan Now, doubt is beginning to cloud that vision. His aspirations of playing in the NFL quickly are slipping out of his hands, leaving him no control of a future that, four years ago, he was certain about. Vann, a stand-out running back for the Jayhawks since 1994, has not always been focused entirely on football. El Dorado as a baseball outfielder and football running back, playing both sports in college was his goal. "There were schools that would call, like Syracuse called, and they don't even have a baseball program, so that was out in one conversation." Vann said. After a high school career in Former Kansas football coach Glen Mason was more than happy to let Vann play baseball if it meant him coming to the University of Kansas. "He was a tremendous high school football player," Mason said. "He had everything we were looking for in a running back." Vann did play baseball for two seasons, until his junior year when coach Terry Allen replaced Mason and began spring football. Vann, who was determined to start his senior year, put football ahead of baseball for the first time. And after cruising the sidelines for three years behind Kansae' star running back June Henley, Vann was placed in the starting role he thought he had deserved since the beginning. Vann never got the chance to battle Henley head-to-head. When he and Henley were in practice, Henley took his runs behind the first-string offensive line, and Vann took his behind the second-second. Vann said. "My first three years were so frustrating," he said. "It's one thing to get beat out by somebody, but it's another thing to not get a chance to beat somebody out." As far as Mason was concerned the competition was healthy. "I think that's a situation that a lot of people are faced with." Mason said. "I think it would be hard to dispute that June was See FOOTBALL on page 4B 25 Former Kansas running back Eric Tann fries to break the tackle of a Missouri defender. Vann enjoyed a starting role during his fourth year at Kansas, but his football now is uncertain.

Monday, May 4, 1998 The University Daily Kansan Section B·Page 3 Women's tennis hopes to swat foes at regionals By Erin Thompson Kansan sportswriter The Kansas women's tennis team had one of its best seasons in recent years and is looking toward the NCAA regionals May 15-17 in Provo, Utah. "It's been a great season so far," said coach Roland Thorngvist. "Up to this point it's all been leading up to the NCAA championships. It's been a lot of hard work. Neither they nor myself see the season as being over." The Jayhawks ended the season with an 18-5 record. Three of the team's losses came during its final four matches. At the Big 12 Tournament, Kansas lost 7-2 in the semifinals "With all the injuries, with Kylie out, it takes its toll," Thornqvist said. "Against Colorado, it all caught up with us. We had the opportunities and couldn't take advantage of them. We were disappointed because all season we were looking to win the Big 12 Championships." to No. 40 Colorado. The Jay- hawks were playing without their top singles player, Kylie Hunt, who had sprained her ankle in an earlier match. The Jayhawks likely will be a top seed in their regional in Provo. If they win, the Jayhawks will qualify for the NCAA championships in South Bend, Ind. "We feel good going into regional- ism." Thornqvist said. "It's the first time in a long time we're all going to be healthy. It all seems to be falling in place." The Jayhawks will not know what team they will play in regionals until tomorrow when seedlings are set. They could face a rematch against Colorado, which is likely to be in their region. This season, the Jayhawks put together a string of 11 wins, including a defeat of No. 11 William and Mary. Kansas cracked the top 20 for the first time since the 1996 spring season and ended the season ranked 15th in the nation. The Jayhawks were led by seniors Hunt and Christie Sim. Hunt was recovering from an injured knee last season and returned this spring. In 1996, Hunt finished second in the nation. Replacing the seniors next year will not be an easy task, Thornqvist said. "You can't replace them in one year," Thorngvist said. "But the freshmen are playing well, and we're going to try and improve from this season." In a team-scored meet, the Kansas men's and women's track teams split with Washington State and Boise State at the Washington State Triangular last weekend. By Angela Johnson Kanson sportswriter Track teams split victories Kansan sportswriter In Pullman, Wash., the Kansas men defeated Boise State, 83-75, but lost to Washington State, 86-73. The Kansas women defeated Boise State 81-61, but lost to Washington State 120-33. Washington State also swept Boise State's men's and women's teams. "The women had some key people left at home, so they weren't able to compete as well as they are capable of," said Kansas coach Gary Schwartz. "The men were strong. To come that close to Washington State, which is one of the top teams in the Pac-10, is quite an accomplishment." TRACK AND FIELD The Jayhawks won nine individual titles. Leading the way for the Jayhawks was junior Lester Smith. He won the men's triple jump with a mark of 52 feet, 8/3 4 inches, which qualified him provisionally for nationals. Smith leads the Big 12 Conference in the triple jump, and his mark is the fourth-best in Kansas history. Also winning titles for the men were Scott Russell in the javelin (231) feet, 3 inches); Andy Tate in the 3,000-meter steeplechase (9:22.59); Garrett Atting in the pole vault (16 feet, 3/4 inch); David Cooksey in the 200 meters (21.36); and Jerry Pullins in the 5,000 meters (15:12.65). On the women's side, all of the Jayhawks' titles came in the field events. All-American Candy Mason won the pole vault with a jump of 11 feet, 6 1/4 inches. She also placed second in the javelin and third in the long jump. Mason qualified automatically for nationals in the heptathlon at the Mount Sac Relays, April 17. She also provisionally qualified in the javelin and pole vault. Her mark in the pole vault, 12 feet, 9 1/2 inches, is currently the second-best in the nation. April Kockrow the shot put with a toss of 44 feet, 10 3/4 inches, and co-captain Lisa Baner won the discus with a toss of 154 feet, 9 inches. In an exhibition, Olympic champion Dan O'Brien competed in the 110-meter high hurdles, long jump. high jump and discus. O'Brien, who is an assistant coach for Washington State, is the world-record holder in the decathlon. Pat Manson, Mary Beth Labosky. Michael Evers. Candy Mason. They've all been All-Americans during Gary Schwartz' 10 years as track and field coach. Schwartz said that these standout athletes came to Kansas with the basics and developed into champions. "Everybody has talent — some more than others," Schwartz said. "With a certain work ethic, enthusiasm and commitment, some people will go to a higher level." Schwartz said that, when recruiting, they don't specifically target someone who is going to be an All-American. "Do we go out and pick the Candy Mason's? No, that's not the way we do things." Schwartz said. "People come in with the basics, and we develop that talent." Softball team goes down swinging; players named All-Big 12 Schwartz said he knew some athletes would make an immediate impact, but some athletes were a surprise. "Some you know what you've got a hold of," he said. "With Candy, we knew this lady had something special. With Scott, we knew he was good in the javelin, but he surprised us by being a multi-athlete." By Laura Bokenkroger Kansas sportswriter After losing two games in the Big 12 Conference Tournament last weekend, the Kansas softball team may become the second team in school history to finish with a record below .500. Unless the Jayhawks receive an unexpected at-large bid to an NCAA regional, they will end the season with a record of 28-34. Kansas lost Friday to third-seeded Texas in a 1-0 defensive battle. Texas pitcher Christa Williams set a school record with a career-high 16 strikeouts, giving up only two hits in the shutout. Kansas pitcher Jessi Kowal gave up four hits and one run, dropping her record to 13-18. "Christa Williams is a good pitcher, and we helped her out by swinging at bad pitches," said coach Tracy Bunge. "I wasn't pleased with how we performed offensively. We needed to do better than that to win. Jessica (Kowal) had an excellent game today." The Jayhawks battled Baylor Friday afternoon as both teams faced being eliminated with a loss. Three consecutive singles by catcher Kristina Johnson, shortstop Michelle Hubler and first baseman Shannon Stanwix, who brought home Hubler and Johnson with her hit, put Kansas up 2-0 in the first inning. "We got big hits when we needed them, which is good because we struggled the last couple of weeks." Bunge said. "We got big hits with two outs in the first and that gave us an offensive snark." "I was extremely pleased with Jessica Kowal. " Bunge said. "It's a lot better." With the pressure of being ousted, the Jayhawks put the game away in the sixth inning as left fielder Sara Holland stole third and then scored on a Baylor error. Kansas won 3-1 and secured a spot in Saturday's bracket of the tournament. of pressure for a freshman, and she's pitched two big games for us." The Jayhawks faced Oklahoma State Saturday in another defensive clash. Kowal held the Cowgirls scoreless and allowed just two hits through six innings. Despite recording six hits, the Jayhawks left six runners on base and never scored in seven innings. In the bottom of the seventh inning, Oklahoma State took advantage of two Kansas errors and scored the only run of the game, knocking Kansas out of the tournament with a 1-0 win. "This was a well-played game for us until the seventh inning." Bunge said. "We have really struggled offensively this year. Our pitcher kept us in the ball game. Like I said, it was a good game, but I wish the outcome had been different." Holland and Huber were named to the All-Big 12 softball team. Holland finished among the league leaders in doubles, runs and stolen bases. It marks the second consecutive year she has been named to the All-Big 12 first team. Holland ends her career ranked in the top five in the conference in career at-bats, hits, runs, stolen bases and home runs. Holland also holds the career doubles record with 58. all-conference again," Holland said. "Especially this being my senior year. It was one of my goals at the beginning of the season, and I am glad that I was able to attain it." "I'm very honored to be named Huber was an at-large selection to the All-Big 12 second team for the second consecutive year. Huber will finish her Kansas career among the leaders in at-bats, hits, runs, stolen bases, doubles and home runs. "It's a great honor to be selected again," Huber said. "However, it's a team sport, and I wish we would met more of our team goals this season. I would definitely trade in an individual honor for a Big 12 Championship." Summer Fitness Membership Special!

Continued from page 1B Unlike Sanders, Vann never won the Heisman Trophy, and he was not picked third in the draft. 26 In fact, he was not picked at all. Former Kansas running back Eric Vann tries to break the tackle of a Missouri defender. Photo by Steve Puppe/KANSAN But Vann did not expect to go in the draft, he expected to go as a free agent. On April 19, a window of opportunity opened for free agents, but Vann's former agent missed it. Vann said. Calls to fill rosters should have been made to teams that Sunday night, but his agent waited until the next morning. Vann said. By Monday morning, every NFL roster in the country was full, and the name Eric Vann wasn't on any of those rosters. "If it's your life that they're dealing with, you need to know what's going on," Vann said. Vann, who fired his agent the day after the draft, does not place all the blame for his waning NFL hopes in his former agent's hands. He carries most of the blame himself. Vann's new agent, Jim Fender, is making calls to friends and coaches in the NFL but knows as well as Vann that his new client may have missed the prime opportunity. "Eric employed me to work for him three days after the draft." Fender said. "I feel that it is most critical to make a roster within 24 hours of the draft, so we were looking up the sea bottom, so to speak, when Eric hired me." Both Vann's agent and Allen think he has what it takes to play in the NFL. "He's got to get in the right situation in the right time, and he's got a chance," Allen said. "He's got quickness and durability and great hands for a running back. It may happen now, or it may happen two years from now, but he'd got the talent that it may happen." "I'm not in it for the money because I love to play football. But at the same time you have to start looking at the future," Vann said. "Is it worth getting beat up, getting your brains beat in for $20,000?" The NFL is not the only professional football league to which Vann is looking. The Canadian Football League also is a possibility but is one with far fewer rewards. Vann has not put his future on hold to wait for a call from his agent. He other plans, the biggest of which is a wedding in June. Vann will marry Cortney Roles of Topeka on June 5. The couple engaged since October, have been dating for two years. With his coming marriage, Vann knows that his future decisions affect more than just him. "All my friends were so surprised. They thought I would be the last one for sure." Vann said. "I believe that Eric needs to make a decision that he will never regret," Roles said. "For instance, he has a question of whether he should just stop here or if he should go ahead with the CFL. I would go to South Africa with him if that's what he decided." Vann knows he is not going to South Africa, but that is about all he knows. For now, Vann is going to concentrate on ending the semester with good grades. As for football, Vann said he would be OK if he never played again because he has not allowed football to be the only possibility in his life. "It's time for Eric to just basically relax and enjoy his life." Otis Vann, Eric's father, said. "He will make a difference in the world, I truly believe it. If I died tomorrow, I couldn't be any happier with the way Eric turned out. If I had to write the whole script again, I couldn't do it any better, could you," he said, turning to his wife. "I might change the ending," Eric's mother, Bess Vann, said. But as of now, there is yet to be an ending.

Doherty jdoherty@kansan.com Kansan movie critic Critics like to complain that action movies focus exclusively on plot at the expense of character development. Black Dog, yet another movie that shoots for terror and mayhem in the boomies of the United States, should be so lucky. In fact, Black Dog's affection for 18-wheelers and crusty, inbred villains calls to mind only images from Breakdown, the ominous, disturbing thriller from last year starring Kurt Russell. That underrated nailbiter understood that people are not interested in watching supermen battle cartoonish bad guys. Instead, Russell played a wimpy city dweller, and the real action was kept on reserve while the audience developed empathy with his beleaguered character. In Black Dog, we are saddled with Jack Crews (Patrick Swayze), a struggling ex-con and former big.rig driver. The movie opens with Crews facing a probable foreclosure on his New Jersey house unless he can come up with a quick $9,000. Coincidentally, Crews has just been offered a $10,000 proposition at work: pick up a shipment in Atlanta and haul it up to New Jersey. Crews agrees and catches the red-eye down south. As it turns out, the shipment is actually a $3 million cache of illegal AK-47 assault rifles. And the arms supplier (Meat Loaf), a Bible-quoting lion named Red, decides to sabotage the transfer and snatch the weapons for himself. But Crews knows how to maneuver an 18-wheeler, and he easily dispatches the eviduores without shifting a facial muscle. All of this is the setup for a series of highway confrontations as Red's lackey stage futile attempts to run Crews off the road. If this is supposed to be hell-raising excitement, then someone forgot to let Swayze in on the plan. His stony, uninvolved style of acting worked when he was playing a surfer in Point Break, but it betrays the actor's lack of range in straight roles such as this. BLACK DOG Rating: * 1/2 out of **** Running Time: 1 hour, 30 minutes Rated: PG-13 for violence and mild profanity Swayze is not helped much by William Mickelberry and Dan Vining's insipid screenplay, which shamelessly recycles every action cliché that we never wanted to see again: bickering federal agents, the hero's pristine family and the undercover agent who has snaked his way into enemy territory. For some reason, they expect us to find Meat Loaf's fondness for Scripture frightening, but they never give Red any real sense of menace. What they do muster is some of the most laughably bad dialogue ever written. The line, "I've got a bladder the size of a pea" seemed to invite the most laugher. The best way to enjoy Black Dog may be to bring along a few quick-witted friends who would enjoy spending 90 minutes roasting a turkey. Projects to link museums By Aaron Knopf aknopf@kansan.com Kansan staff writer Several projects taking place at the University of Kansas Natural History Museum have the potential to revolutionize the way all natural history museums function. The collective goal of the projects is to use computer technology to manage and manipulate the information natural history museums have been gathering for the past 300 years. The projects fall under the umbrella of the Biodiversity Informatics Initiative. "This is a revolution that's spreading in museums," said Leonard Kristhtalka, director of the Natural History Museum. life, surveying and documenting information about plant and animal species on the planet. The second is to study the patterns and processes of these species to make sense of life on earth. The third is to disseminate all of this knowledge. Krishtalka said natural history museums had three purposes. The first is to function as libraries of Biodiversity informatics helps museums fulfill these purposes more effectively. Kristishalka said. The development of computerized standards for managing collections is the first step, Krishtalka said. He said there were seven million specimens at the KU museum and there were probably a total of three billion specimens around the world. Laura Green is the project manager of a team at the KU museum. The team is developing a computerized database system for natural history museums to manage the catalogs of specimens. She said the first version of the system should be completed this fall and 200 museums were considering implementing it. The grant for the project comes from the National Science Foundation. The product will be available for free to any museum that wants to use it, and the Foundation will finance ongoing support for the product, Green said. Green's project is one of seven in the informatics initiative, said Brad Kemp, Natural History Museum assistant director for public affairs. Kemp said the projects were financed by about $1.5 million in grant money. Kristalka said once the information was in an online form, there was much that could be done with it. He said a main goal of the informatics initiative was using computational technologies to analyze the data to improve the understanding of life on the planet.

Photo by Sean Haley / KANSAN Wildlife thrive with student help By Graham K. Johnson Kansan staff writer As a student volunteer with WildCare Wildlife Rehabilitation, Woods, El Dorado senior, spends four-hour shifts caring for abandoned baby birds. The birds require frequent feedings and constant care. The birds are just one type of the many abandoned or abused wild animals that WildCare handles. Denise Woods loves feeding her babies, even though she has to feed them every fifteen minutes. WildCare is an independent, nonprofit wild animal rehabilitation center and education organization established in 1979. It is located 15 miles east of Lawrence. Woods said the organization's mission to help wild animals was consistent with her personal reasons for coming out twice a week to help feed The center treats animals from baby possums to bobcats and bald eagles, and even has taken care of a few exotic animals such as an emu and a Peregrine falcon. Schwarting said. "The students are crucial," Schwarting said. "If it weren't for the student volunteers, we probably wouldn't have any way to keep the program going." the baby birds and take care of other injured animals. "The highlight of the program is letting a Bald Eagle go," Schwarting said. Nancy Schwarting, director of the center, said the organization's mission was to increase awareness appreciation and presence of wildlife in Kansas. The primary function is the rehabilitation of injured wild animals native to Kansas. "It's important to me because I really think they need help," Woods said. "A lot of people are caught up in their fast-pace life, but nobody takes the time to help the animals that are struggling from the over-population of people." The organization relies heavily on its volunteers, 25 of which are students, to care for the animals, Schwarting said. Woods, who is treasurer for Students for WildCare, said though many of the group's 10 members volunteered at WildCare, volunteering was not required to be a member. Woods said Students for WildCare also served as an educational tool and as a support group and fund-raiser for WildCare, which requires a lot of food for the animals. WildCare also has ties to the University through the recently formed student group, Students for WildCare. Schwarting said the student group provided some of the center's best volunteers. Fictitious character takes the lead in forward mocking People's poll By Laura Roddy Kansan staff writer Internet surfers are banding together and mocking People Online's most beautiful people nooll. An e-mail forward circulated around the country has reached the University of Kansas. The message encourages votes for the fictitious character "Hank, the Angry, Drunken Dwarf." No one knows who created Hank, or even what he looks like. One forwarded message says that Hank now has twice as many votes as *Titanic*'s Leonardo DiCaurio for the online poll. "I just did it because I thought it was funny," Balsmer said. Aaron Balsmeier, Blackfoot, Idaho, sophomore, received the forward and cast his vote for Hank. He then forwarded it to his father. DiCaprio: Losing to a fictional character. Balsmeier said that he thought the magazine's "50 Most Beautiful People" feature was a fraud. He said the celebrity whose face would sell the most copies would end up on the --- cover, not the most attractive candidate. "I've seen more beautiful girls on campus than I've seen in People magazine," Balsmeier said. The issue already has hit newsstands, and DiCaprio is on the cover. According to People's Web site, www.pathfinder.com/people, the online beauty poll does not have any influence in the magazine's editorial decisions for selecting its 50 most beautiful people. The top 10 vote grabbers will be featured Friday in a photo gallery on the Web site. Internet users can cast their votes at pathfinder.com/people/1890/1990_vote Bryan mcClooskey, Atchison sophomore, said the concept of choosing the 50 most beautiful people was pretentious. He voted for Hank because he was up against Leonardo Dicaprio. McCloskey said he forwarded the message to about 20 people.

Section B · Page 10 The University Daily Kansan Monday, May 4,1998 And this little Piggie rushes for Nike money B Rush was initially recruited by Roy Williams to play at Kansas but has committed to UCLA. After Rush criticized Williams' coaching style, Williams said Kansas was no longer interested. Continued from page 1B Spradling, a Kansas City summer coach. "The shoe companies want a piece of these kids so they can build a relationship for the future." Piggie has been portrayed as everything that is wrong with a system that inflates high school star egos. He claims to be a misunderstood champion of poor youth. "I'd like to ask what those pen pushers have done in the inner cities lately?" Piggie said. "I want to help kids and get them off the streets. With Nike's help, I give them a shot at an education and a life." Before he got into coaching summer teams, Piggie was charged in 1987 of conspiring to distribute cocaine and making three sales of cocaine totaling more than half an ounce to an informant and assault with a deadly weapon. He was shot in 1989 by an off-duty police officer in an unrelated incident. Piggie said he got a bad rap because he coached three All-American players last summer. Numerous college coaches have told reporters Piggie spent the last year with his hand out to any college programs that would listen. The Basketball Times reported that Piggie took recruiting junks to more than one school, attained a new set of gold teeth from a prominent program and made it clear that palm greasing was not frowned upon. "People thought I was controlling them, but I was just trying to help." Piggie said. "Colleges offered positions if Jaron would come there. If I was in it for anything else but the kids, I would have a college coaching job." Spradling, who has coached with the 76ers in the past, said Piggie is not the party at fault for Rush's hot dog behavior that got him dumped by Williams and signed by UCLA. "I don't blame Myron for what he has done, I blame the people who have given him money and power," Spradling said. "Myron didn't put himself there. They put him there." Rush's name continued to be near the top of recruiting lists until he verbally committed to Kansas last fall and said it would take an act of God to stop him from playing in Allen Field House. After several months, Rush pulled back from his decision, criticizing Williams' substitution methods. "Roy subs too much for me, but I still might want to go there." Rush said. "I really don't know what I'm going to do. I haven't talked to (Williams) lately, and I talk to UCLA about every two weeks." When word of that interview got back to Williams, it sealed Rush's plane ticket to La La land. He told Rush that Kansas wouldn't be recruiting him any more. Rush signed with the Bruins a couple of months later. Reports of last summer's Nike All-American camp have pushed the NCAA towards changes in the summer basketball system. The Apex of Recruiting Alexander Wolff, Sports Illustrated's basketball writer, said the advent of high school players like Kevin Garnett and Kobe Bryant finding instant success in the NBA means top players don't have reason to be on good behavior anymore. When Piggie trotted out his three stars, Rush, Young and Maggette, The Sporting News's Decorysa said the players acted as though the camp was invented for them. "One year there were great kids like Chris Burgess (who signed with Duke) who were just normal kids, but those kids' ideas were so out-of-whack they thought they were privileged." Decourcy said. "Those kids wouldn't talk to anybody, and they played like they didn't really care. It was wrong for those kids to act the way they did." Decourcy said these high profile players, delivered to the camp by the Nike-sponsored Piggie, failed to impress him, but he explained the futures of these stars. "There is no penalty for these kids working with people who might not be out for their best interests," Decourcy said. "The top three players on the Kansas City team went to Duke, UCLA and the NBA. We can keep telling kids to stay away from these things, but there's little meaning when that is the result." Texas Tech coach James Dickey is opposed to third parties like Piggie in recruiting. He said he was not against summer programs because players need to play to improve, but he is against summer recruiting. A Better Future? "We should spread out recruiting during the school year so third parties aren't involved in any way," Dickey said. "We shouldn't just have camps so kids can be coached." Sampson said if he were in charge he would cut back on shoe company power but he saw certain problems with cutting back on summer recruiting. College basketball programs can save money by watching 600 Division-I-caliber athletes play at one time. What's more, college coaches don't have to leave their teams during the season. "I try to spend as much time with my players as possible; the Northwestern gambling situation shows what can happen when you don't watch after your kids enough," Sampson said. "If we were just recruiting during the school year, we'd leave our teams too often." A committee of the NCAA, the Division I Acadmeics/Eligibility/Compliance Cabinet, designed a new model for recruiting last summer in hopes of restructuring summer camps and, in the process, decreasing the power of summer coaches. The hope is that high school coaches will again become important figures in players' lives. Part of the program would be the creation of regional USA Basketball camps during the summer. Evaluation by college coaches could be limited to those camps. The camps would help strengthen the USA Basketball program, create equal evaluation opportunity and remove some outside influence from the sport. Williams won't talk about Rush any more, and inquiries through the University's sports information department were turned away. The Nike All-American camp for high school players opens June 4-10 in Indianapolis. Piggie will deliver Jaron's brother Kareem Rush, a junior at Pembroke Hill, to the camp. The sports information department said Roy Williams also will be there.
