Regents recommend modest fee increase
Four days after University of Kansas graduate students walked down the hill, a committee of the Board of Regents proposed to increase tuition.
The suggested 2.4 percent hike by the Regents' Budget Development and Tuition Committee at the May 21 meeting is pegged to the projected consumer price index increase.
By Duane Wagler
Kansan staff writer
The Regents' proposal would raise rates by 2.4 percent for the six Regents' schools for the1999 fall semester.
While Provost David Shulenburger said no increase would obviously be better for students, he said he was pleased with the decision for the modest 2.4 percent increase.
"I don't think it will have much effect on students," he said.
But Sam Schimek, Lincoln, Neb., graduate student remained unconvinced.
"I think they need to justify why they need to ask for money," he said.
The 2.4 percent hike reflects a downward trend in tuition increases during the last several years. Ray Hauke, director of plans and budget for the Regents, said that the Regents approved a 4 percent increase in 1996
while in 1997 the hike was 2.8 percent.
The Regents also recommended a $1 per credit technology fee for students, continuing a fee that was added last year.
The $1 was further matched by $2 from the state general fund, which will yield about a $1.8 million windfall for the University, said Linda Eakin, associate provost.
Eakin expressed approval for the fees for technology upgrades — everything from computers to video editing equipment — which have become a steady stream of revenue.
"The governor's budget was for a three-year plan," he said. "We expect it to continue because once it's appropriated, if we can show we're making good progress and spending it well, then it ought to keep going."
2.
Rich Givens, assistant provost, said last year its technology fees were used to meet 19 technology proposals out of 38 submitted from colleges throughout the University.
Resident full-time undergraduates at the University enrolled in 1999 would see tuition go from $67.05 per credit hour to $69.65, while resident full-time graduate students would see tuition increase from $100 to $103.40. That includes the $1 per credit hour technology fee.

CLAS associate dean named

By Graham K. Johnson
Carl Strikwerda, associate professor of history and interim associate dean of the humanities since January, was chosen to become the fulltime dean to replace Jim Carothers who retired a year ago.
Monday, the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences announced the appointment of a new associate dean.
Strikwerda was one of two finalists for the position, both of whom were candidates from within the University. Sally Frost Mason, dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, said that she would not reveal the identity of the other candidate, but that both candidates met the qualifications.
"It was a tough decision," Mason said. "Both candidates were very highly qualified, but Carl's expertise with international programs was the deciding factor."
Strikwerda will fill one of two associate deans positions for humanities. The other, Pete Casagrande, oversees departments from English to foreign
ranging while Strikwerda, who starts July 1, will be the contact person for departments ranging from Philosophy to international programs.

has extensive experience with international programs in helping to establish a European Studies department and a European Studies comaior.
Strikwerda, who began as a visiting professor of history in 1987, said he was excited about the new job and the opportunity it provided. Strikwerda, who did his dissertation research in Europe and has been there eight times, said he was particularly interested in helping develop
the international programs.
"I am interested in building up KU's strength's in international studies and in helping create some new programs for the Indigenous Nations Studies program and the African American Studies Center," he said.
Strikwerda will also be dealing with major issues concerning the humanities that will be coming up during the next year. One major issue is the proposed diversity requirement that will change curriculum requirements for most students.
The proposal, which must first be adopted by the College Assembly this fall, will require students to take a class that focuses on minority studies.
Strikwerda said he was open to the idea but was concerned that it would not increase the total number of credit hours required.
Casagrande said he had worked with Strikwerda before and looked forward to collaborating with him on such issues as grant development.
"I think we'll work well together," he said.
Piano institute honors former KU professor
By Warisa Chulindra
Kansan staff writer
The annual Evelyn Swarthout Hayes Piano Institute commenced at the University of Kansas Monday and concludes Friday. This year's program honors Leon Fleisher, a pianist-in-residence at the University from 1979 to 1984. It serves as an early celebration of his 70th birthday July 23.
Fleisher is the Andrew W. Mellon Chair in Piano at the Peabody Conservatory of Music and was the first American to win the Queen Ellisabeth of Belgium Musical Concourse. He played with the Boston Symphony Orchestra last season and toured internationally.
gram was a special event that would gain national recognition because of Fleisher's presence.
Christopher Hepp, associate professor of piano and director of the institute, said this year's pro
Along with Fleisher's former students, colleagues and friends, the program's namesake, Evelyn Swarthout Hayes, and her husband, Patrick Hayes, will be in attendance.
Eighty participants are preenrolled for the piano institute, though as many as 125 are expected. The institute attracts participants from throughout the region and the country.
"Mr. Fleisher is a busy man," Hepp said. "The fact that he'll be in one location for an entire week is unusual and an honor."
Eduardo Grozco, St. Joseph,
Mo., senior in piano at Missouri
Western College said that he was
drawn to the institute because he
liked Fleisher.
"Every time I come to this, I'm impressed."

"I admire his teachings, play
ings and ideas," Grozo said.
The purpose of the program is to provide continuing music education for university professors and music teachers by top-caliber instructors.
The piano institute was formed in 1989 and was named after Evelyn Swarthout Hayes in 1993. Hayes is the daughter of former School of Fine Arts dean Donald Swarthout.

Police make arrests after city's first murder of year
The first murder in Lawrence in 1998 was committed May 27, leaving a Lawrence man dead and three of his companions in Douglas County Jail, Lawrence police said.
Jimmy Lee Johnson, 19, was shot and killed between 5 and 5:13 a.m. while allegedly attempting to burglarize a house in the 1600 block of Kenwood Drive with four other men. said Sgt. George Wheeler.
Wheeler said that while the apparent burglary was in progress, Johnson was shot and killed by one of his companions.
Three of the alleged burglaries in custody, but Wheeler said that the man who shot John son had not been arrested vet.
Wheeler said they have identified a suspect in Johnson's shooting.
"We're still examining the circumstances of the shooting and the motivation of all those involved." Wheeler said.
Wheeler said that the men apparently entered the house and held the six occupants against their will, but something went wrong in the process.
"They went in there, and they didn't complete the robbery," Wheeler said. "The investigation is continuing."
Wheeler said he could not say what prompted the shooting or what kind of gun was used.
"Johnson was found in an interior hallway of the residence, and he died from multiple gunshot wounds." Wheeler said.

Driver in fatal accident arrested and charged
Matthew Vestal, the driver of the vehicle that fatally injured Lisa Rosel, March 31, was arrested Thursday afternoon on a charge of involuntary manslaughter, the Douglas County District Attorney's office said.
Rosel, Overland Park freshman, was struck by Vestal's '197 Mitsubishi Montero at 11:55 p.m. in the 1400 block of Tennessee Street. Lawrence police said
Vestal, Englewood, Colo., freshman, was booked into Douglas County Jay at 2 p.m. Thursday and released at 4:05 p.m. on a $1,000 bond.
Christine Tonkovich, Douglas County district attorney, said that prosecutors decided on the charge of involuntary manslaughter after examining blood tests performed by the Kansas Bureau of Investigation.
According to Lawrence police, the tests showed the blood alcohol levels of both Vestal and Rosel, but Tonikovic said she would not reveal the results.
"We won't discuss any evidence in the case until the case is concluded," she said.
Scott Treeseink, media agent for the KBI said that he could not discuss the test results either.
"We don't release that type of information," he said. "What we do is type up a report and send it to the filing agency, and then they decide what to do with it."
Tonkovich said her office received the results in late April, at the same time they received Rosel's autopsy report.
James Eisenbrand, Vestal's attorney,
could not be reached for comment.

Sprint offers new service expanding phone line use
NATION
NEW YORK (AP) — Sprint Corp. is raising the stakes in the telecommunications wars, offering its customers the chance to simultaneously talk on the phone, receive faxes and connect with the Internet using a single phone line.
The nation's third largest long-distance phone company expects the new service that was unveiled yesterday will eliminate the need for customers to have multiple phone lines.
It said the new system would reduce its costs for delivering a typical voice phone call by more than 70 percent and cut the costs of a video call to below what it costs for a typical long-distance call today.
Sprint chairman William T. Eresy said customers' monthly bills would stay about the same, but they would get far more sophisticated service — including Internet connections at up to 100 times faster than a conventional modem.
Sprint's announcement said the new service results from a combination of technological advances rather than a single technology and results from five years of confidential work.
It expects to start making the service available to large businesses later this year and expand it to businesses of all sizes by the middle of 1999. It should be available to residential users in late 1999 Sprint hopes to make the new service available in 36 major markets this year and a total of 60 markets next year.
Sprint has already invested more than
$2 billion to upgrade its network to handle the new service, which it has been testing privately with business and consumers for the past year, Esrey said.
It will need approval from local phone companies to hook its new service to local phone systems. Negotiations could be difficult since Sprint said the new service also will serve as its basis for competing with local phone companies.
Sprint, which trails AT&T Corp. and MCI Communications Corp. in the long-distance business, is the first to announce a new telecommunications system on such a large scale.

Explosion kills two in Iran reports differ on source
TEHRAN, Iran (AP) — A bomb exploded in a government building in Tehran today, police said. Iranian television said two people died, and two others were injured.
An Iranian opposition group in exile claimed responsibility in a statement faxed to The Associated Press in Cairo, Egypt, but official news reports said the explosion in the Iranian capital was an accident.
The Mujaheeden Khalq said it set off a bomb at the Revolutionary Prosecutor's office, killing people and demolishing the building. A check of the building indicated there was no visible structural damage outside.
The prosecutor's office tries opponents of the 1979 Islamic revolution.
A police official at the scene said the explosion was caused by a bomb in a briefcase.
The official Islamic Republic News Agency said the blast was caused by explosives, and indicated the material was being brought to the court as evidence when it went off accidentally.
The differing accounts could not t immediately reconciled.

Dial-in Internet fees increase
Fees will help fund more staff faster services
Tim Burger
Kansan staff writer
Students who use dial-in Internet accounts will pay $5 more this year.
The fee for dial-in accounts has increased to $35 for six months of service. The money brought in by the increase will pay for more lines and more staff to answer questions
from students about their dial-in accounts.
"we wanted to add additional lines," said Jerry Niebaum, assistant vice chancellor for information services and director for Academic Computing Services. "We are finding that with the huge number of students using dial-in that we are getting a lot of questions."
The Computer Center will add 48 additional lines for dial-in users.
Wes Hubert, assistant director of Academic Computing Services, said that the speed of the new lines would depend on how higher speed lines perform at Fort Hayes State University, which added new higher
The improvements in service were needed to keep up with increasing use of dial-in accounts. In the spring semester an average of 6,000 accounts were used each month.
speed lines this year.
Dial-in accounts used about 110,000 hours of service per month, up from 90,000 hours per month last year.
Hubert said that the number of lines has almost kept pace with demand. With the fee increase, he said that Academic Computing Services should be able to better keep up with demand.
"The major concern is to not degrade the service," said Bill Crowe, vice chancellor for information services and dean of libraries.
"The alternative would be to stay the same and thereby fall behind."
The dial-in fee allows students to use the Internet from their home computer. Students can use up to 50 hours each month. Extra hours cost $5 cents each, but the Computer Center does not bill students for use of less than 20 extra hours. The Computer Center will bill students up to $30 per month for extra online hours.
"Our object is to make that pay for the direct cost and that's it," Crowe said. "We want to keep it cost effective so that cost is not a barrier... we don't want to discourage people from using the dial-in accounts. ... It's a touchy economic decision, you don't want to increase the cost, but it isn't free."
Program helps workers balance school, job
By Graham K. Johnson
jgohnson@kansan.com
Kansan staff writer
Managing summer school and a job is a difficult task for many students, but for some employees of local businesses, it will be easier this summer.
The Community Academic Outreach Program, sponsored by Sallie Mae Servicing Corporation, 2000 Bluffs Drive, and the University of Kansas, began in the fall semester of 1997 to provide full-time employees the opportunity to earn college credit
by providing classes at their workplaces. The program announced it also would offer a class this summer.
The program has made it easier for people such as Becky Tweed, records clerk at Sallie Mae, to go back to school while working full time.
"It's great," Tweet said. "It's one night a week, it's basically in the same building that you work in and that's as far as you have to go, so you have time to do other things."
Steve Harris, training and development officer for Sallie Mae, said that Sallie Mae, a company that buys and
services student loans, offered to pro vide the University on-site facilities if it would help employees further their education and careers.
Linda Luckey, assistant to the Dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, said it was a Sallie Mae employee who originally proposed the idea to the company.
Luckey said that the program would expand to four courses this fall and would continue indefinitely.
Harris said that the courses were usually held in a company conference room one or two nights per week. Sal
lie Mae offers tuition reimbursement to cover most of the costs to employees for the classes, Harris said.
Courses are open only to full-time employees who are recommended by their employer and meet regular admissions standards. Luckey said.
Lynn Lipsey, program manager with the Division of Continuing Education, said that the program has utilized KU teaching assistants as instructors. Lipsey said that instructors often can sympathize with their students, many of whom balance work and family roles.

University hosts world conference on radar advances
By Sarah Morgan
Kansan staff writer
Scientists and engineers from more than 20 countries visited the University of Kansas to look for more than buried treasure.
The Seventh International Conference on Ground-Penetrating Radar was held May 27 to 30 at the Kansas Union.
"Having an international conference of this sort informs the world about the benefits of KU, " said Carl E. Locke, Jr., dean of the School of Engineering.
About 240 participants who work in fields ranging from archeology to construction to hydrogeology attended exhibits and demonstrations on GPR.
"GPR is a very multi-disciplinary field," said Richard George Plumb, associate professor of electrical engineering and computer sciences. "There are few fields of research where you'll find hard-core electrical engineers, archeologists, geologists, physicists working together."
Plumb said that ground-penetrating radar was a non-invasive technique that worked like any other kind of radar. The difference is that the antennae are pointed toward the ground.
Ground-penetrating radar is a system or technique for finding remote objects and determining what they are, where they are and if they are moving. This is done by means of radio waves that reflect from the surface of the object.
This method allows researchers to search underground or inside structures without digging or demolishing.
Antennae are used to transmit and receive the radio waves. The waves are reflected when an object is in the beam's path.
The waves are then received by the radar unit, processed electronically and converted into images on a computer screen.
GPR TECH PROJECTS Projects which use GPR technology:
- track down a woolly mammoth
- inspect railway tracks in Switzerland
- test airport concrete structures
- study ground that has been mined for lead or zinc in Joplin, Mo.
GPR is used for many purposes because it can pass through air, water, soil and dense materials.
Archaeologists use GPR to search for ancient cities or fossils. GPR is used by highway departments to evaluate roads without destroying road surfaces. Environmental engineers use it to determine if pollutants are endangered water tables.
The GPR conferences, which began in 1986 in Georgia, are a biennial series of international scientific symposia devoted to the advancements of ground-penetrating radar, according to a news release from the School of Engineering.
The conference sites are alternated between the Eastern and Western hemispheres. Previous conferences have been held in Japan, Finland, Canada and at several sites in the Unites States. GPR '00 will be held outside North America.
Plumb, chair of the GPR '98 conference executive committee, represented his proposal at GPR '96 in Japan for the University to be the conference site for GPR '96.
The University was chosen for the site because of the school's Radar Systems and Remote Sensing Laboratory.
The lab has been involved with nearly every radar system flown in space, in all phases of microwave of remote sensing and the development of systems of research and operational sensing.
Plumb, who has been working with GPR for six years, is the acting director of the labs.

Commission OKs airport upgrade
By Jenny Oakson Kansan staff writer
Lawrence Municipal Airport is scheduled for a facelift.
Last night, the Lawrence City Commission accepted a renovation and payment proposal to repair one of the white cinder block airplane hangars and to build a new hangar ranging from 10,000 to 14,000 square feet.
Two basic development plans exist, with options for the city to bond or lease the two hangers. DreamWings L.L.C. and private investor Lloyd Hetrick want to finance the cost of improvements to the city's cinder block hangar rather than pay for the improvements up front.
Commissioners and private investors said the improved airport would allow for more commercial traffic in the future.
"I think we all want to promote the airport as an improvement to the community and an opportunity for more Lawrence business," said Greg Smith, chairman of the Aviation Advisory Board.
Local businesses such as Oread Labs fly private jets into Lawrence Municipal Airport in order to conduct business. The proposal aims to offer better storage, staff, and hangar options, which the city hopes will attract more business to Lawrence.
Private hangar owners, recreational pilots, and instructors met with the Aviation Advisory Board to discuss safety regulations and the long-term status of the airport. The renovation plan has drawn criticism because ultra-light recreational vehicles would share limited air and landing space with private lets.
"I'm not sure that combining the iet
traffic and small planes is a compatible or safe way to go, but it's feasible," said private hangar owner Al Stuber.
Stuber's hangar sits 80 feet away from the proposed new hangar site. He said that more jet traffic, such as private jets landing for Jayhawk basketball home games, would be a hazard to private nplots.
The commissioners, led by Lawrence Mayor Marty Kennedy, directed their staff to draw up appropriate leases and to conduct building and engineering surveys around the airport land.
"The costs we have now, although they do not include internal maintenance or storm water maintenance, are worth reconstructing our airport, a symbol of the city to visitors of Lawrence," said Commissioner Bonnie Augustine.

Printmakers display work
Kansas artists capture regional scenes and events

"It was an eye-opener. People were impressed, which is exactly what I hoped would happen.
By Elissa Harris
Kansan staff writer
The Spencer Museum of Art's exhibition, "A Century of Kansas Printmaking," connects Kansas to the history of printmaking.
In a small gallery on the fourth floor of the museum, Steve Goddard, curator, and Ed Barr, graduate research assistant, have showcased a collection of 50 prints, spanning from the late 19th century to the present. They said the exhibit represented a wide spectrum of Kansas printmakers.
A print is an original work of art that exists in multiple copies.
"It usually involves an artist working on metal plates or stone and putting that onto paper," Goddard said.
The Print Council of America, a group of curators from Canada and the United States, was the reason for the exhibit's installation.
The collection is meant to serve as a stage of regional artistry.
Steve Goddard
It was an eye-opener, Goduard said. "People were impressed, which is exactly what I hoped would happen."
The earliest print on display, "Sketch Club Feed," is an 1888 etching by Frank Olin Martin, a former dean of engineering at the University of Kansas. The most recent print on display, "Three Sisters, Rose," is a 1997 digital collage of Cima Katz, KU professor of fine art. Artists from other state universities and colleges also are represented.
Prints made from woodcuts, color wood blocks, line engravings and lithographs portrait scenes of farm life, the Kansas landscape, thunderstorms, religious revivals and KU basketball.
The exhibit uses a part of the museum's archive of prints from the Prairie Print Maker's Club that existed from 1930-1965. The club
began in the Wichita area and eventually had members throughout the country.
Curator
"They were an example of a prin club that fostered an enthusiasm for printmaking." Goddard said.
Though a list of artists shows Kansas hometowns of Topeka, Lindsborg, Winfield and Wichita, several artists from Lawrence are represented as well. Perhaps most recognizable is the late William S. Burroughs, whose 1995 print, "Gluttony," was created while he resided in Lawrence. "Gluttony's" white phantom-like faces are splattered in gold and red paint, which Burroughs created using blasts from a shotgun.
shown by the artists in the exhibit who were born in Germany, Sweden, Latvia and China but became part of the Kansas community of artists.
The ethnic diversity of Kansas is
Albert Bloch, German expressionist and former KU department head of drawing and painting, is represented by a 1913 self-portrait.
"If the general perception is that, yes, there is a lack of art culture in Kansas, then I think this exhibit goes a long way in dispelling that myth," Barr said.
The exhibit will run until July 26. The museum galleries are open 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Tuesday through Saturday, 10 a.m. to 9 p.m., Thursday, and 12 to 5 p.m., Sunday. The museum is closed Mondays.
Natty Nation fashions reggae-rock rhythms
Tiffany Harrington Kansan staff writer
There's nothing like a cool island breeze, white sand beneath your feet, a cold bottle of Red Stripe in your hand and the sweet rhythmic grooves of live reggae music.
Naty Nation will bring their hard reggae-rock vibe to the Jazzhaus tomorrow night.
The Jazzhaus won't be able to reproduce the cool island breezes, but the ice-cold Red Stripe and the vibrations of Natty Nation are liable to take you some place very far away and very Caribbean.
The Madison, Wisconsin-
based band blends the hard-rock style of the early '70s with the jamming aesthetic made popular by the H.O.R.D.E. Fest.
NAUTY NATTON
The band's debut CD The Journey Has Just Begun was released in 1996 and sold over 5,000 copies. This is an unusual number coming from an upper-Midwest reggae band whose members call themselves 'Midwest-farians,' in jest
Natty Nation's sophomore CD Earth Citizen will be released at the end of June and the band's website is currently under construction because of the large influx of visitors.
At www.nattynation.com, fans can meet the band members, check the
group's concert schedule, and listen to ten samples of their music. The renovated website will be available June 10.
Natyte Nation will be touring Missouri, Kansas, Texas, New Mexico, and Colorado during June. They have signed with Lawrence-based Jef Shibille Talent Group, and the band plans to continue touring.
After visiting the Blind Pig in Urbana-Champaign, Illinois, Jeffrey Maxwell, the senior band member by 15 years, told *Daily Illini* reporter that the road could be difficult, but the number of wonderful people whom they met on the road made the experience rewarding.
Maxwell said the band tried to feel at one with the audience.
"We communicate to them our feelings, our hopes and our dreams with our music," Maxwell said. "That is the power of music. The air we exhale is the air they inhale. It is the breath of life which we all share."
"Natyty Nation is a great touring reggae band," said Rick McNeely, owner of the Jazzhaus. "They are a guaranteed fun show and a good time."

Potato lovers can eat their fill
Restaurant has rotating menu of mashed spuds
BEST SELLING CHEF
Brent McClun prepares the ingredients for a mashed potato entree at The Herbary and Potato Mountain Cafe. McClun owns the cafe, located at 1013 Massachusetts St., and makes 100 different kinds of mashed potatoes. Photo by Lizzy Weber/KANSAN.
By Michael Martin
Kansan staff writer
Lawrence resident Brent McClun has taken his lumps as a rock climber. Now he aims to master considerably softer formations.
As owner of The Herbery and Potato Mountain Cafe, which carries the motto "mountains of mashed," McClun offers a menu entirely composed of mashed-potato entrees.
The Herbery and Potato Mountain Cafe is located at 1013 Massachusetts St.
"The potato is so versatile," McClun said. "I just want to be able to give it the fame it deserves."
McClun's creations range from the vegetarian Granite Peak, mashed potatoes topped with spinach and asparagus, to the K-2 which at $5.95 is the price pinnacle of the menu. The K-2 features mashed potatoes blended with chicken curry, green peppers and onions.
"These dishes are for the kind of healthy eater, one who may be strained from a low-fat diet." McClun said. "They're not in the realm of fast, fat or low-fat foods."
McClun's business offers more than food. He sells medicinal herbs, vitamins and cooking spices. The products range from immunity-boosting supplements to recipe additives with names like Pizza Pizzazz.
There also are bookshelves along the walls of the cafe, loaded with the works of Shakespeare, recipe books, aromatic tapers and
various crafts for sale.
McClun said that a Good Morning America report on different ways to cook mashed potatoes had provided him with the impetus to open The Herbery and Potato Mountain Cafe.
"I thought, wow, I can do that more than 100 ways," McClun said. "The light went on, and I had no more questions."
McClun, who has no formal culinary training, said he designed the menu in one evening in an inspirational spurt. More than 12 entrees are featured at a time and range in price from $2.95 to $9.95.
McClun said that he would change the menu regularly to showcase 100 different entrees and that he would add breakfast items and an occasional potato bar.
The secret to his recipes is the mix. he said.
the right blend of milk and butter to get the right amount of creaminess," he said. "And you need to leave in a lump or two now and then to remind yourself you've got the real thing."
It takes McClun about 90 seconds to prepare any of the dishes on the menu. He said that the quick preparation time served him well during the cafe's first two weeks of operation, when he functioned as the sole host, waiter and cook.
"I use the right kind of potato,
"I've always been able to do three things at once," he said.
"But this pushed me to the limits and beyond."
Response to his idea has been overwhelming, McClun said. The 12-seat cafe has been filled to capacity every day at lunch time since its May 15 opening, McClun said that he had frequently run out of food and had to turn people away.
The result: McClun hired his first staff member last week. At the same time, he began shopping for a second downtown location.
"There are people who have tried to eat here three times and haven't gotten in," he said.
Lawrence resident Jeff Groves visited Potato Mountain at an typically quiet time after the lunch rush. Groves sampled the Perry Peak, a potato and mushroom concoction.
"It's a good idea," Groves said. "I'm not a vegetarian, but there are a lot of them in Lawrence, so I hope it's successful."
Patricia Stein, registered dietitian with Nutrition Counseling Education Services, Inc., in Olathe, said potatoes were a fairly nutritious food that provided a good source of carbohydrates. She said that potatoes lost vitamins in the boiling and mashing process and that they should be served with other foods to make a complete meal.
Stein said most people do not eat mashed potatoes for their nutritional value, however.
"Mashed potatoes are a comfort food," she said. "Something that reminds you of home and Mother." McClun would be inclined to agree.
"Mom taught me how to make the best mashed potatoes," he said. He founded Potato Mountain as a tribute to his late parents.
Pictures of mountains on the cafe walls and the reason behind the cafe's existence combine to make potatoes a very personal business for McClun.
"This place is a piece of myself," he said.
The Herbery and Potato Mountain Cafe is open 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Monday through Wednesday, 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Thursday through Friday and 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday.
Smartcard to serve same purpose as former KUIDs
By Duane Wagler
Kansan staff writer
University of Kansas students now can use their new student identification cards to check out library books and soon might be able to use them as bus passes.
"Functionally, the new cards will do the same things as the old cards," he said.
The University of Rochester
The University libraries began accepting both the old and new student KUID cards on May 29, said Kent Miller, libraries facility officer. Students expecting dramatic changes from the old to the new will be disappointed.
Miller said the libraries' acceptance of the new KUID card at the circulation desk was the first of several changes planned. Photocopiers eventually will be able to accept the new ID cards, allowing students to use the monetary value on their cards to make copies.
"We will get some relief in terms of cash-handling." Miller said. "At this point, we empty the copiers and count the money and deposit it. That will change."
The University libraries have ordered equipment and expect to have the copiers converted to KUID-card capability by Christmas. Miller said every library would maintain at least one coin and bill copier to serve non-University affiliated users.
Another form of new student KUID technology began Monday with a pilot project that placed the first electronic card reader in a KU on Wheels bus. Nancy Miles, campus card administrator, said a separately encoded chip card would be used in the pilot, and student and driver feedback would be monitored for the first few weeks.
"If it is successful, the vendor will come and install readers in the remaining nine buses," she said.
Miles said that if reviews were positive, pilot chip card technology would be transferred to the student card by the end of the summer.
Miles said bus riders would appreciate a new KUID that eliminated the need to contend with bus pass stickers.
Tiesha Kelley, Topeka junior, rides KU on Wheels regularly and said she was excited about the card's capabilities.
"I think it's a pretty good idea," she said. "I think maybe with the reader it will speed things up."

Track athletes sprint to NCAA Championships
SPORTS BRIEFS
Four athletes will represent the University of Kansas in the 1998 NCAA Outdoor Track and Field Championships, June 3-6, in Buffalo, N.Y.
TRACK AND FIELD
SCORPIO
TRACK
Candy Mason, Nevada, Mo., senior, and Big 12 Outdoor Performer of the Year, will compete in the pole vault and heptathlon. Her national rank of sixth in the heptathlon has earned her All-American honors.
射箭
Mason has been competing in multiple events since she was 8 years old and began competing in the triathlon for a club track team. She believes her experience will help her place high in the heptathlon.

"I feel extremely confident."

Mason said.
"I have been having great practices. I think I can place in the
top five if I can put it all together. I need to get the shot to click.
Mason also will compete in the pole vault, a relatively new addition to women's competition. She is ranked second in the nation and is expected to place in the top two in the championship.
"I plan to just go out and have fun with the pole vault," Mason said. "There are a lot of factors involved, but I think I can win it."
Scott Russell, Windsor, Ontario freshman, will compete in the javelin. His season best mark of 247-foot-7-inch javelin clinched the Big 12 title and ranked him fifth nationally.
"The competition (at nationalists) is amazing." Russell said. "There are some guys who can throw farther than me, but it is who does better on any given day."
Marlea Woodman, Belleville junior, hopes only to do her best and put together a solid performance in her first championship appearance. She will compete in the discus.
"I don't have a chance to place high, but I just want to throw well," Woodman said. "I'm just very excited to compete in my first nationals."
Woodman's 176-foot-4-inch throw set a new school record and earned her a rank of 17th in the country. However, three weeks before the conference competition, she rolled her ankle walking down a flight of stairs. Woodman does not worry that her performance will be hampered by the injury.
"During competitions I get into this zone," Woodman said. "When I throw, the adrenaline takes over, and the ankle doesn't bother me."
Kansas men's basketball forward Lester Earl underwent surgery on his left knee May 22 at Lawrence Memorial Hospital for what medical experts call chondromalacia.
Lester Smith, St. Louis junior, will be competing in the triple jump. This three-time junior college All-American's mark of 52-foot-8 3/4-inch jump leads the conference and ranks 13th in the nation.
"All four of them have the capability to reach finals and score," Schwartz said. "I have a philosophy about nationals — if you continue to do what got you there, you have a good chance of scoring high."
BASKETBALL
Head coach Gary Schwartz feels confident about his team's chances.
The surgery was successful, team officials said.
Basketball forward Earl undergoes knee surgery
Wertzberger said no cartilage was removed. And while recovery from this operation is a slow process, Wertzberger said Earl is expected to be ready for the 1998-99 season.
"This is an injury of the joint surface of the patella (kneecap)," said Ken Wertzberger, hospital physician. "The operation performed is designed to take pressure off the area of the joint surface injury and to trv and prevent further injury."
Earl averaged 7.6 points and 6.5 rebounds coming off the bench for most of last season. He played in 26 games after becoming eligible to play for the Jayhawks on Dec. 20. He transferred from Louisiana State to Kansas in January 1997.
Earl was selected to the Big 12 Conference's All-Newcomer and All-Bench teams.

Jayhawk catcher named to All-America team
University of Kansas catcher Josh Dimmick was named to the First Team Academic All-America University Division Baseball team yesterday. This is the second time that Dimmick has earned the honor with a 3.91 cumulative grade point average.

The Wharton, Texas, senior is the fifth Jayhawk to earn the honor. Others include basketball players Ken
Dimmick is a KU Rhodes Scholar nominee. He led the Jayhawks with 60 RBI on the season. Dimmick was a two-time Big 12 Conference Player of the Week and a Honorable Mention All-Big 12 selection. He also received the school's Senior Scholar-Athlete Award.
VOLLEYBALL
Volleyball coach adds familiar face to staff
First-year volleyball coach Ray Berchard has hired a new member for next fall's coaching staff.
Jill Jones, Berchard's former assistant coach at Barton County Community College in 1997, has accepted the position with the goal of bringing her experience to the team.
Since February, Jones has been the interim head coach at BCCC, a team that went 59-3 with a thirdplace finish in the NJCAA tournament last season.
Having worked with Jones at BCCC, Coach Berchard said he felt very comfortable with Jones' coaching abilities and what she would bring to the University.
"At the University of Wyoming, she played under three different head coaches," Berchard said. "She was subjected to a wide range of theories and philosophies that will be very helpful in developing the kind of philosophy we plan to develop here."
As a student at the University of Wyoming, Jones was captain of the volleyball team in her senior season, leading them to a berth in the 1994 NCAA tournament. She said her experience as a student athlete would help her deal with the players in different ways.
"I can help teach them good techniques in passing, defense and outside hitting," Jones said. "But I also have a great deal of empathy for what the girls are going through when they have to travel all over and get up for class on Monday morning."
Jones said that she did not immediately plan to enter coaching after graduating from college. She said that when she received the call from Berchard asking her to coach at BCCC only a few months after graduating, she accepted
"I just fell into coaching, but I really enjoy it," Jones said. "I'm excited about working with Coach Berchard again."

TENNIS
Tennis doubles team loses in quarterfinals
The NCAA tournament run of the tennis doubles team of senior Enrique Abaroa and junior Luis Uribe came to an end last weekend in the quarterfinals who faced Bob and Mike Bryan of Stanford.
The team's weekend began well with a win against Florida's Nathan Oloiverheimer and Jeff Morrison, 6-3, 6-7 and 6-3 in the opening round. Abaroa and Uribe then beat James and Thomas Blake of Harvard, 6-4 and 6-4. Their winning streak ended Saturday when they lost to Stanford 6-3 and 6-3.
Despite the loss, Abaroa and Uribe have no cause for disappointment. By earning a seed in the NCAA Tennis Championship in Athens, Ga., the pair became the first men's doubles team to receive All-American honors since Craig Wildey and Chris Walker in 1991.
By advancing to the quarterfinals, Abaroa and Uribe matched the highest finish in the championships by a Javahawk doubles team.

Dehydration danger accompanies summer
By Leslie Potter
Kansan Staff Writer
Almost everyday of summer, University of Kansas students play Frisbee, have barbecues, or rollerblade. With these outdoor activities come the dangers of being out in the sun, one of which is dehydration.
Randall W. Rock, chief of staff at Watkins Memorial Health Center, said that our bodies maintain a reasonable balance of fluids through drinking and eating.
"We lose fluid with each breath that we take," said Rock. "Out in the sun, we perspire, losing even more fluids. If we don't replenish those fluids, then dehydration occurs."
Rock said that the most common side-effects of dehydration were a dry mouth and fatigue. According to the American Medical Association guide, dehydration can also cause sunken eyes, wrinkled skin, and in some cases irritability. In severe cases, dehydration can cause the skin can lose its elasticity, brain damage, or even death.
Rock also warned against drinking alcohol in the sun.
"Alcohol may aggravate our dehydration state," said Rock. "It also impairs judgment on how to respond to the body's needs."
Leah L. Luckeroth, a physician at Watkins, said the combination of alcohol and sun increased the risk of dehydration.
"Alcohol, by itself, can cause dehydration no matter if you are inside or outside," Luckeroth said. "It acts like a diuretic. The diuretic also causes dehydration. If you are drinking in a bar, where it's air conditioned, then there is less of a chance of becoming dehydrated than if you were drinking outside."
Chris Loental, Rolla, Mo. sophomore, had his own experience with dehydration.
"My friends and I were having a barbecue one day," Loental said. "I guess I didn't realize how hot it was, and I wasn't drinking enough. All of the sudden, I got really tired and sick to my stomach. I was out for the rest of the day."
Rock recommended drinking plenty of fluids during the summer months, especially when outdoors, to avoid dehydration.
THE AUTUMN SEASIDE
Sunbathing can raise risks
Sun worshippers should cover up
By Leslie Potter
Kansan staff writer
For some, there is nothing better than soaking up the rays of the sun to get the perfect tan. At pools and on patios, many University of Kansas students can be seen wearing swimsuits and lying out on towels or lawn chairs.
"The damaging rays of the sun can cause first-degree and second-degree burns on the skin," Rock said. "A first-degree burn causes the skin to turn red. A second-degree burn causes blisters."
While being tan is what many consider a desirable look, most doctors disagree because of the risk tanning poses to health. Repeated sun exposure can raise the chance of developing skin cancer, said Randall W. Rock, chief of staff at Watkins Memorial Health Center.
Rock said that the burns caused by the sun stimulate melanin, or dark pigments in the skin, causing the burn to turn a brown color.
According to the American Cancer Society, skin cancer is the most common type of cancer. And most skin cancers are caused by the sun.
To prevent getting burned, the American Cancer Society suggests
Julie Kester, Fargo, N.D., senior, takes advantage of the sunny weather to sunbath at the Lawrence Aquatic Center. Students should take certain precautions, such as wearing sunscreen, when staying out in the sun. Photo by Roger Names (KANSAN)
wearing sunscreen with a sun protection factor of at least 15 when going outside and discourages tanning salon use.
"Students should also take care to protect to top of their ears, their nose, the back of the neck and the forearms." Rock said.
Rock said that people with dark skin need to protect themselves against the sun even though they do not burn as easily.
Anyone who spends a lot of time in the sun is at risk for skin cancer, and people who lie out to get a tan are injuring themselves. Rock said.
stop sunbathing despite warnings.
Some KU students say they will not
"I think that the sun combined with all of the pollution in the air causes skin cancer," said Joshua Finley, Wichita senior. "People on the Mediterranean coast don't get sun cancer, and they're out in the sun all of the time. I think that the sun is healing."
To some, the look of a tan outweighs the risks involved.
"Iknow that tanning is not suppose to be good for you," said Teresa Culpepper. Olathe sophomore. "But there is no way that I'm going to walk around in shorts with ultra-white legs to show off to everybody. That's just not an appealing thought."

Students volunteer time
Students spend their summer helping others
By Darrin Peschka
Kansan staff writer
While many students head to the beach to relax during the summer, several KU students are using their vacation time to gain volunteer experience through summer programs offered by the Center for Community Outreach.
During the regular school session, the center has 14 programs that provide students with opportunities to volunteer. While many of these programs end during the summer session, two that continue are the Lawrence Summer Food Program and the Jubilee Cafe.
The Lawrence Summer Food Program will provide free lunches to Lawrence children who otherwise may not get a balanced meal. The center works on the program in conjunction with local government and nonprofit agencies.
Beginning June 8, volunteers from the center will provide lunches Monday
through Friday at four locations in Lawrence.
"For students who want to make a difference but don't want to make a huge time commitment, the Summer Food Program is a great opportunity," said Chris Hess, Wichita junior and co-director of the center. "You just hang out with kids for an hour, help them get the food they need and have fun together."
Scott Hendrix, Lawrence graduate student, said he volunteered in the program last summer and that he and his family planned to participate again this summer.
"We volunteered for several reasons," he said. "First, we have a 10-year-old son, and we thought it would be good for him to see other kids that he normally wouldn't see at school. In addition, this program is really needed in the community."
The Jubilee Cafe will continue to operate during the summer . The program provides meals to Lawrence's homeless residents in a restaurant-style setting.
The cafe is open 6 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. Tuesday and Friday mornings. Hess said that about 20 people volunteered for the cafe but that usually there were fewer volum-

"Getting up early to go to Jubilee Cafe is definitely worth it," Hess said. "You can provide more than just a free meal to the homeless. You provide them with respect and dignity that they often do not receive by waiting on them, taking their food orders, having conversation and giving them a hot meal."
Hess said the program could use additional volunteers.

Institute gets freshmen started
By Kristi Hartley
Kansan staff writer
Time management, freedom and responsibility are among the things that students will learn at the Freshman Summer Institute in the next four weeks.
The Freshman Summer Institute is sponsored by the Freshman-Sophomore Advising Center.
"Its purpose is to give high school graduates a head start on their college experience," said Nick Walker, resident assistant and Wichita senior.
There are two sessions of the Freshman Summer Institute with 150 students staying at Gertrude Sellards Pearson-Corbin Hall. The first session runs from June 1 to June 28, and the second session is from June 28 to July 24.
The students take two classes worth five hours of credit. One class deals with orientation to the school.
Students learn time management, how to structure their lifestyles and University of Kansas history.
For the second class, the students choose from physical anthropology, speaker and audience communication and composition for the first session.
For the second session, students have their choice of composition, principles of environmental tudes, history of the United States after the civil war, college algebra or introduction of international politics.
A number of activities are planned for the first session.
"The first week we're doing something everyday, just so everyone can get to meet each other, so we can establish some relationships," Walker said.
Students will play volleyball, have an ice cream party and go to movies once a week.
The June session will go to the Adams Challenge Course near Clinton Lake this weekend.
"All participants learn how to problem solve in a physical environment and work together as a team."Walker said.
ice project, such as clean up a local park or volunteer at an elderly care facility.
Walker said that this was the first time most of these students had been away from their parents for an extended time.
Each session will do a community serv
"It's their first real experience with freedom on a pretty large level. This isn't a camp. This is college for them," Walker said.
Meredith Carr, institute participant from Topeka, said she was excited about making friends.
"I'm expecting to have fun, but I'm also expecting to learn something," Carr said. "I think that this is our first taste of what college is, and we can either do it right or screw it up. I don't want to screw it up."
Students like Danielle Bluma, a participant from Perry, Okla., said she thought that the Freshman Summer Institute would be a way to find out if the University was the right school for her.
"I didn't know if I wanted to come all the way up here to go to school, so I have a month to decide if I like it." Bluma said.
Year-long renovation of Lewis Hall underway

When the students moved out, demolition began at Lewis Hall May 18.
Tractors surround Lewis Hall, which is being renovated to contain suites similar to those in Naismith Hall. During the next several years, many of the residence halls will see double-occupancy rooms converted to suites. Photograph by Lizz Wee / KANSAN.
The $5.9 million renovation project will update the 40-year-old building's air conditioning, heating, plumbing and electrical wiring.
Living accommodations will be remodeled to meet the preferences of today's students, said Ken Stoner, director of Student Housing.
The Ekdahl Dining Commons will remain open during the construction project, Stoner said.
"We were pleased with Templin," Stoner said. "We think we'll have a great project when all is finished."
According to floor plans by Gould Evans Associates L.C., the rooms will be two-person or four-person suites. Each type of suite will provide separate sleeping and living rooms and a bathroom.
When Lewis Hall opens for the 1999 fall semester, there will be room for 280 coed students, the same capacity as Templin Hall.
Stoner said that the same contractor that renovated Templein Hall would work on Lewis Hall.
"When we did the dining commons a few years ago, it was designed in such a way that it's physically separated." Stoner said.
This summer, students from Lewis Hall were moved to Gertrude Sellards Pearson-Corbin Hall.
In past summers, participants in such events as Girls and Boys State and Midwest Music Camp had lived in Lewis Hall.
During the 1998-99 school year, Lewis Hall residents will live in different halls during the construction.
"A number of them came over here at GSP-Corbin, and some went to McCollum," Stoner said.
The construction should not cause traffic or parking problems, said Tim Browder, project manager for Ferrell Construction of Topeka Inc.

Travels provide global perspective
My mother told me sympathetically that she had butterflies in her stomach for me as we awaited the boarding call at Kansas City International Airport. I shrugged and smiled lightly, knowing that I wasn't worried, at least not for the reasons she was.
I have traveled alone to and from Pakistan, my parents' native country, a couple of times before. But each time, my mother is concerned for my safety. She doesn't know that I have a secret affinity for traveling alone. I relish the independence, responsibility, control and valued time free from the oppressive glare of a watchful eye. This is also, of course, one of the most attractive aspects of college life, as I learned during the past academic year at the University of Kansas.
I am abruptly departing from this beloved college atmosphere for a long 10 weeks, and that is what I fear. This summer, I will be assisting the Time magazine correspondent in Islamabad, Pakistan.
I am undoubtedly in awe of the opportunity ahead of me, especially during a period of international media and political attention in the region. However, my time in Pakistan will by no means be unfettered. I have temporarily deserted newfound freedom and independence in exchange for rigid restrictions and unavoidable dependence. These, in broad terms, are the obstacles I will face as a young, single Ameri

The stark cont rast between the environment I was in just last week and the one I have
been thrown into today is overwhelming. Obviously, the transition will be difficult I have little choice but to, at least externally, comply with many Pakistani cultural, social and moral standards.
I will be staying with my uncle, aunt and cousins in Islamabad. They are loving, educated, knowledgeable and have traveled around the world. But there is no escaping the fact that they are strictly conservative.
After finals last month, I had one week to move back home, unpack, pack again and prepare for my trip. The academic year came and went so quickly, and already I was standing at the door of another new experience. It seems as though, for the past year, I have breathed and tasted
but have had no time to swallow and digest the things and people around me. I miss them already.
Each time I travel to Pakistan, I come home with a slightly adjusted perspective on life. The most important realization I have arrived at is that it is unbelievably easy to become wholly enveloped by the society in which one lives and thus lose sight of the bigger global picture.
That might sound cliche, but anyone who has, for example, spent a substantial amount of time among indigenous people in a less developed society will similarlv attest.
On this trip, one thing I have learned so far is that one can view a wide range of diversity from the seat of a plane. My observations on flights through Kansas City, Chicago and London were mostly representative of the Western world. But on the way to Bahrain and Karachi, Pakistan, I suddenly saw a different world.
Inside the plane, various languages, dialects, accents, colors and dresses marked a striking difference between Eastern and Western societies. My view outside from the window changed from that of snow-topped mountains and skyscrapers to a seemingly never-ending desert and the jumbled rooftops of street bazaars. We see Middle Eastern

men such as Yasser Arafat with red turbans and white robes on the news. They seem so distant. No one sits next to me.
While I anxiously begin my summer on the opposite side of the globe, I feel the blind security and carefree ways of just last year gradually eroding as I alone work work and stay in a uniquely challenging society.

Movie Review
Godzilla is a towering turkey
By Jeremy M. Doherty Kansan movie critic
The first scene in the new version of Godzilla reveals just how little imagination was placed in its script. Nick Tatopoulos (Matthew Broderick) cruises down a bumpy
THE NEW YORKER
Even renegade cameraman Animal (Hank Azaria) cannot hide his shock and horror when he comes toe-to-toe with Godzilla in the TriStar Pictures presentation. Contributed Photo
road in a jeep, listening to a portable CD player. He passes by a large sign that reads "Chernobyl."
At this point, most of the audience will have called to mind images of a nuclear fallout, destruction of nature and other results of that disaster. For a brief second, director Roland Emmerich evokes a disquieting sense of an impending apocalypse.
And then he blows it.
Barely a second after Broderick passes the sign, Emmerich flashes one of those handy-dandy subtitles on the screen. It reads, "Chernovl."
Unfortunately, things do not improve much from there. The rest of this hugely expensive reworking of the Japanese-created monster relies upon clichés and stock characters.
So, how is the monster? Frankly, the big guy, despite receiving a computer-generated overhaul, resembles nothing so much as a T-Rex on steroids. Basically, the situation here is that the mutated Zilla swims from Tokyo to New York to lay his eggs. The military calls in Broderick because he studied mutated worms at Chernobyl, and they assume that qualifies him to theorize about what makes this big fella tick.
MOVIE REVIEW
(half-star out of four)
**Running time:** 2 hours, 20 minutes
Rated PG-13 for disaster-related violence
Kansan Rating: 1/2* out of *****
(half-star out of four)
Before long, the Big Apple is in shambles, with the 30-story iguanaa jogging down crowded city streets, leveling buildings and doing other tourist-type stuff. Between gaping at the lizard and arguing with the Army brass, Broderick finds time to sweet-talk his college sweetie, give Godzilla a pregnancy test and make friends with some French secret agents.
All this recycling of better movies might have been bearable if Emmerich and his writing partner Dean Devlin had attacked their material with some attitude. *Titanic* proved that audiences get tired of endless special effects at the expense of any sort of emotional wallop.
Godzilla could have been great cheesy fun. Instead, it's a perfect testament to all that is wrong with Hollywood today. It would be hard to watch this movie and not come away believing that Emmerich and Devlin held nothing but absolute contempt for our intelligence.
Movie Review
Fear and Loathing gives senses a trip
CANDY WILSON
By Jeremy M. Doherty Kanson movie critic
"We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the drugs began to take hold."
With those words spoken by Johnny Depp's character, Terry Gilliam's *Fear and Loathing* in Las Vegas sets off at full-throttle, blasting the senses with the mind-twisting horror show that is drug abuse.
Johnny Depp stars as journalist Raoul Duke in the film Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. The movie, directed by Terry Gilliam, is based on Hunter S. Thompson's novel. Contributed Photo
Aside from being the best movie 1998 has yet offered, *Fear and Lothing* is a subversely engrossing road flick that takes a caustic, damm-the-torpedoes stance against the idealism and optimism of the free-loving 1960s.
This is a movie that thrives on excess, screaming "Wake up!" at anyone who shuffles through life in the center lane. Such extremism is bound to vex more than a few. There will continue to be claims that both Gilliam's film and the Hunter S. Thompson book on which it is based glorify the exploits of its coke-snorting and acid-dropping protagonists.
At a glance, the claims appear to have merit. When journalist Raoul Duke (Johnny Depp) and his attorney Dr. Gonzo (Benicio Del Toro), both zoned-out on ether, crash a Debbie Reynolds floorshow, the viewer gets an irresistible kick from their mocking of authority.
Del Toro, who thus far has played off his good looks in movies such as The Usual Sus
pects, virtually disappears into the sagging beer belly of Gonzo. Screeching out the lyrics to One Toke over the Line in one scene or threatening suicide while on an LSD binge in another, Gonzo emerges as a man whose scatter-brained nature disguises a frightening penchant for violence.
Sent by Rolling Stone magazine to cover a motorcycle race in the deserts of Las Vegas, Duke sees the situation as a chance to gorge himself on the glamour and tackiness of the Las Vegas Strip.
Played by Depp, Duke becomes a motor-mouthed prophet in beach shorts. He is a man so consumed by his hatred of normalcy that he is ready to destroy his brilliant mind in search of the American Dream.
The third star of the film is undoubtedly its director, Gilliam. After dismal movies such as Twelve Monkeys and The Fisher King, he finally returns to the eye-popping audacity that marked his 1985 film, Brazil.
With the neon-drenched, carnival atmosphere of Vegas as a backdrop to his heroes' capers, Gilliam allows us to cheer them on with a carefree, who-cares approach.
What makes this a great film is
MOVIE REVIEW
Kansan Rating: **** out of ***** (four out of four)
Running time: two hours
Rated R for its graphic depiction of drug abuse, strong language and violence.
that Gilliam does not deliver a politically-correct film that preaches the dangers of drug abuse without getting the audience inside that chemical-driven world.
Gilliam's too smart for that. He provides the laughter, and, true to his movie's title, the fear and the loathing. The result is an unforgettable cinematic trip that gives users and npn-users alike a glimpse into a bleak existence.

Riverfront outlet center goes shopping for tenants
Business suffers with newer malls opening near town
Kansan staff writer
By Michael Martin
Bill and Mary Simms drove in from Overland Park to visit the Lawrence Riverfront Factory Outlets. Clad in tennis shoes and walking shorts, the older couple was ready to track down some bargains.
But the Simms cut their shopping trip short after finding a clearance they had not expected. Several stores had closed since their last visit.
"There's more closed than open, seems like." Bill said, as the pair walked along the mall's lower level, a retail ghost town with one open store. "There's no point in coming here anymore."
To casual observers like the Simms, times look tough at the Riverfront Plaza. While 21 merchants are open for business, 12 storefronts stand dark and empty. Four others have been filled by non-retail organizations. Long stretches of papered-up windows line the top and bottom levels, and signs announcing new tenants are conspicuously absent.
Some Riverfront Plaza tenants said mall management was indifferent to advertising and had not done enough to fill the center's vacancies, which they said made business worse.
"A lot of customers say, 'Oh, we haven't"
New outlet malls, such as Odessa Factory Outlets in Odessa, Mo, and the Great Mall of the Great Plains in Oathe, have eroded Riverfront Plaza's customer base, Haley said.
"We don't make the money we did two years ago," she said. "When new things open, people want to go there."
Aaron O'Dell, assistant manager of Bugle Boy Outlet, said the number of out-of-town customers had remained steady, but local traffic had declined over the past several months.
The three-level, 150,000 square-foot outlet mall at Sixth and New Hampshire streets opened in 1990 and has discounted merchandise from both full-price retailers and off-price discount companies ranging from J.Crew to Book Warehouse. The center is owned and operated by a national company but is managed locally.
"It's an awkward time," said David Longhurst, director of the Lawrence Riverfront Factory Outlets.
Longhurst said customer traffic was down slightly and blamed the mall's vacancies on a self-defeating industry trend. Although the number of factory-outlet retailers has remained constant, the number of outlet malls has increased dramatically, creating a flood of real estate with not enough tenants to mind the store.
In response to industry changes, Riverfront Plaza's lower level will be converted from retail to office space. Longhurst said. However, retail leases on the lower level have to expire
before the conversion can begin, he said.
Sprint Telecommunications, Inc., already has opened a 20,000-square-foot cell center on the lower level, which is largely staffed by KU students.
Longhurst said the mall's upper two levels will remain retail-oriented.
Management has been actively recruiting new tenants, Longhurst said. He said several spaces had been committed to, but declined to name prospective tenants or confirm that any leases had been signed.
"We're not going to make any phantom announcement," he said.
Riverfront Plaza is financially solvent, Longhurst said, and the center has a promotional campaign that includes direct-mail, TV and newspaper advertising. Advertising has declined because fewer tenants mean fewer contributions to the mall's advertising fund, he said.
Seth Saturn, general manager of Tanger Factory Outlets-Lawrence, said he agreed with Longhurst's assessment of outlet-mall industry as saturated.
"We're both struggling with the same issues," he said.
The Tanger Factory Outlets, 1035 N. 3rd St., has a 26 percent vacancy rate, Saturn said. The center has the worst occupancy rate of 32 Tanger properties nationwide, he said.
Saturn said that Tanger drew most of its business from out of town and that Lawrence residents were resistant to outlet malls.
"They just will not shop them," he said. "We don't know if they're going to Kansas City to do their shopping or what."
Students oriented to University life
Kansan staff writer
By Graham K. Johnson
Freshmen at the University of Kansas often get little respect. Yesterday, however, they were the center of attention.
More than 500 freshman, parents and friends visited campus for an all-day program of activities, information sessions and meals.
The day is designed to help freshman, transfers and other new students get acquainted with the University, said Mary Ryan, director of new student orientation.
"Obviously students who have just graduated from high school or are transferring from other institutions are in

Director of New Student Orientation
After the opening session in Woodruff Auditorium, which included a film about diversity, the students went to small group sessions called "Student to Student." Orientation assistants gave tips to students on course selection, advising and enrollment.
Kate Hazelwood, Salina freshman, said that the session answered some of her questions about the classes she needed to take and made her feel more comfortable.
tarry this summer, is to help students make connections with advisers and to learn about ways they can succeed at the University.
Ryan said that concern about recent alcohol-related incidents had played a role in placing more focus on alcohol education.
The students attended a presentation titled "Making Smart Choices," which focused on health, crime and other safety issues. The session paid particular attention to alcohol-related laws, such as the penalties for minors-in-possession convictions.
Kayla Monson, Omaha, Neb., freshman, said she was surprised to learn that two-thirds of the campus population did not drink but was pleased to hear that there were programs such as Saferide for those who did.
Students spent the rest of the afternoon eating lunch and meeting with academic advisers and attending a wrap-up session.
There will be 19 more orientations before fall semester. The registration fee is $50 for new students and $10 for readmitted students. Those interested should call the New Student Orientation office at (785) 864-4720.
Auto crash victims remain hospitalized
The accident occurred at 2:12 a.m. Sunday in the 900 block of Tennessee Street when a car left the road and struck two trees, according to a police report released Monday.
Four people involved in a severe automobile accident Sunday morning are improving, area hospital representatives said yesterday.

The impact destroyed the 1984 Toyota Celica. All four of occupants were hospitalized.
Several University students watched rescue personnel treat the victims at the scene.
Mackenzie Lane, Englewood, Colo., junior, who lives two houses north on the west side of Tennessee street, said she left her house after hearing the accident.
According to the police report, 21-year-old Emporia resident Ryan Dambro was freed from the wreckage after Lawrence-Douglas County Fire and Medical personnel worked for an hour to rescue him.
Lane said she spent an hour watching

Dambro was taken by helicopter to the University of Kansas Medical Center. His condition was upgraded from critical to fair.
Jim Cesario, Chicago, Ill., senior, was at a red light at Ninth and Tennessee streets at the time of the accident. He said the Celica ran a yellow light while heading south on Tennessee.
According to the police report, the Celica left the east side of Tennessee Street and struck the first tree with its left rear side. It then fishtailed to the right and struck the second tree. After the second impact, the car appeared to be break in half and wrap around the tree.
teams extract a victim from the wreckage.
Driver and owner of the car, 25-year-old Lawrence resident Loc Arnaud, was taken by ambulance to Lawrence Memorial Hospital, 425 Maine St. He was admitted in stable condition and was in satisfactory condition.
Cesario said the car bounced while crossing the intersection, emitted sparks and swerved to avoid another car.
Lawrence police officer Mike Monroe said Monday a third occupant, 22-year-old Lawrence resident Christine Deuvall, was ejected from the car and thrown nearly 30 feet. She was taken by ambulance to Lawrence Memorial Hospital and then by helicopter to Columbia Overland Park Regional Medical Center. Deuvall's condition had improved from critical to serious.
Deuval's roommate, Julia Pena, 19, was ejected from the car and thrown approximately 10 feet, where she landed in bushes. She was taken by helicopter to the Medical Center, where officials said her condition had improved from critical to fair.
Two open bottles of beer, still cold to the touch, were found inside the vehicle, according to the police report. The report did not say if the occupants had been drinking.
According to the police report that a blood sample was taken from Arnaud to check for alcohol, but results had not been determined.

United Way and KU rock; Donation is second highest
The Douglas County United Way is singing and dancing all the way to the bank with the $42,500 donation from Rock Chalk Revue.
The donation is the second largest since 1995, which was $43,000, said Jo Bryant, executive director of the Douglas County United Way. Last year's donation was $26,500.

Bryant said any of 30 service agencies funded through the United Way could benefit from the donation. These
agencies include: Headquarters, the Douglas County Aids Project, Penn House and Hospice Care.
"Rock Chalk is unique. The scope is amazing and impressive in that students raise such a large amount of money and provide a number of volunteer hours," Bryant said. "It's a time and treasure sort of gift."
University of Kansas students from fraternities, sororites, residence halls and scholarship halls contributed more than 33,000 hours of community service by volunteering throughout the year and on Day of Caring, said Amy Griggs, director of the Roger Hill Volunteer Center.
"The Rock Chalk gift usually kicks off the new drive, though the campaign begins officially in September," Bryant said.
This year's drive begins Sept. 13 with Day of Caring, People of Douglas County, as well as KU students, volunteer on the first day.
The revue is a variety show of music and dance numbers written and produced by KU students. Five acts performed by living organizations' members are chosen
by a panel of independent judges.
Next year, the revue will be in its 50th year, said Kyle Evans, Derby senior. The performances will be March 11 to 13.

Brief power shutdown set for Friday morning
A maintenance power outage is scheduled at the University of Kansas from 4 a.m. to 6 a.m. Friday
Buildings that will be affected include Twente Hall, Stauffer-Flint Hall, Douthart Scholarship Hall, Grace Pearson Scholarship Hall, Malott Hall, Haworth Hall and Haworth Greenhouse.
Gary Weishar, facilities operations associate director, said that computer
equipment should be shut off during the outage to avoid power surges.
The upcoming shutdown is necessary to finish testing a circuit breaker, he said.
Weisharan said that the testing began in the weeks between spring and summer semester but that it was left unfinished because workers found higher than acceptable moisture content in the breaker.
The faulty breaker was replaced, he said. Weishaar said that the maintenance had to be completed because some of the breakers had not been properly tested since 1989. The breakers should be tested every three years, he said.

INTERNATIONAL Scientist encounters South African drug plot
CAPE TOWN, South Africa (AP) — An apartheid-era scientist testified today that he ran a secret program which produced more than 2,000 pounds of the designer drug Ecstasy, with a street value of up to $200 million.
Testifying before a panel probing apartheid abuses, Dr. Johan Koekemoer said he was working at an army front company in 1992 when he was ordered to manufacture the illegal drug.
He said he was told the synthetic hallucinogen was to be used to incapacitate enemies of the caucasian run state, but he suspected corrupt military officers intended to sell it on the street.
When he confronted his superiors with his doubts, he said he was told the drug was intended for military purposes only.
Aiming to shed light on the murky world of espionage and secret weapons projects, this week's Truth Commission hearings are focused on the activities of Dr. Wouter Basson.

KU on Wheels gets a technology upgrade with new smartcard scanners. The scanners will read the microchip on smartcards and let drivers know if a pass is valid. One scanner has already been placed on one of the two buses running during the summer. Photo by Lizz Weber / KANSAN.

Kansan staff writer
The transportation department is installing electronic card readers in KU buses for use with the new KUID cards.
The new readers will not accept KUID cards until the fall. During the summer, students and faculty will receive temporary bus smartcards.
Upon boarding, bus riders will insert their cards into the readers.
These bus smartcards will be available in the Kansas Union banking office and can be purchased for $30. They have not arrived yet.
Nicole Skalla, transportation coordinator for KU on Wheels, said using smartcards would be more efficient than having bus drivers examine KUIDs for bus-pass stickers.
The reader will show a green light for a paid bus card and will show a red light or make a buzzing noise for an unpaid bus card.
One of the two buses in use this summer already contains an electronic card reader.
Readers are being installed on the 21 other buses that are not in service during the summer.
Hesham Albuloushi, Kuwait City,
Kuwait, graduate student, said he thought that using a smartcard to board would be more efficient.
Some students are skeptical that the new system would offer better convenience.
"I think that the new card is a good idea, but I'm not sure whether it will offer a faster means of boarding when the school year gets busy," said Yuko Koike, Tokyo.
Japan, graduate student.
The transportation department also is making other changes to the buses for the fall semester.
Bike racks will be added to five of the buses that serve off-campus routes. The bike racks would allow bus riders to bring their bikes to campus and still be able to take the bus home.
Skalla said that the transportation department hoped that this improvement would help to make the campus more bike-friendly.
In addition, Student Senate is exploring the possibility of expanding KU on Wheels into a citywide bus service. The new service would have more routes and provide bus transportation for Lawrence residents.
"I think it would be beneficial for KU on Wheels to consider increasing the number of bus routes through this program," said Kevin Yoder, student body president. "The new system would really help out students because it would give them more opportunities to travel where they would need to go throughout the city."
Summer parking permits needed
Fines up to $100 may hit students without passes
by Liz Wristen
Kansan staff writer
The parking department has sold 500 yellow permits for summer use
Two of the main campus yellow parking lots at the University of Kansas have been filled close to capacity, even after the spring semester students departed.
The two lots, located on Illinois Street and Irving Hill Road, have continued to keep summer students looking for parking spots. These lots have been filled to 90 percent of their capacity. The remaining main campus parking lots, namely stadium parking and the student lots behind Carruth O'Leary Hall, have parking for late-arriving students.
Students who have neglected to purchase a summer parking permit for their cars should be aware that violators can receive tickets ranging from $5 to $100.
"It is important for students to keep with the general rules of the parking system, and this involves following parking regulations," said Donna Hultine, assistant director of the parking department. "Basically, students need to realize that if they have a car that they want to bring to campus, they need to buy a parking permit."
Summer parking permits cost $35.
An annual permit costs $75, and a semester permits costs $45. The department has sold more annual permits, which include parking for summer, than it has sold summer-only permits, Hultine said.
Don Kearns, director of the Parking Department, said that the most frequent parking violations came from students without valid parking permits.
"Many students receive parking tickets and fines for the simple fact that they chose not to purchase a parking permit," Kearns said. "The truth of the matter is that without a valid permit, students are going to have to pay a fine for illegal parking."
Students who ignore their parking tickets will have to pay for their debts eventually.
Students with three or more unpaid, outstanding parking tickets will have their cars towed at the owner's expense. Those with less than three tickets may have their enrollment and transcripts held until the fines are paid.
One option that many students may consider is the parking garage on Irving Hill Road. The garage requires a 50 cent fee for each hour,
but for students who do not plan on spending too much time on campus, this option could be cheaper than the summer permit.
"I would recommend the use of the parking garage to students who feel that they won't spend enough time on campus to afford buying a parking permit," Hultine said. "However, for students who will be on campus a lot, the parking garage could become rather costly for them if they choose to use it instead of buying a permit."
Summer permits are available through the parking department, 1501 Irving Hill Road. Permits expire July 31, and fall parking stickers will go on sale July 15.
Anyone with questions or concerns can visit the parking department website at www.ukans.edu/-parking. The department also can be reached at kupark@parking.wpo.ukans.edu, or by phone at 864-PARK.

Lifeguarding has its price

They spend hours under the sweltering summer sun, retreating only to reapply sunscreen and take a 20-minute break. They are lifeguards, and their goal is not to improve their tans but to help save lives.
KU students who lifeguard at the Lawrence Aquatic Center, 727 Kentucky St., are responsible for hundreds of swimmers every day.
"Lifeguarding is a hard job. There is tremendous responsibility from the time you hit the water to the time you get off," said Bob Lockwood, aquatics director of the Lawrence Aquatic Center and Robinson Gymnasium facilities director.
Beth Harrington, health and safety coordinator for the Douglas County chapter of the American Red Cross, said lifeguard certification can be pricey. Spring training classes include 33 hours of CPR and first-aid lessons and cost $125.
Courtney Biehl, Topeka senior and an eight-year life-guard, said certification expenses are necessary.
Lifeguards are required to invest their own time and money for certification and periodic recertification.
"Lifeguarding is like the fire department. Our responsibility is to be there when someone needs us and to know the skills," she said.
Tammy Teske, Great Bend graduate student, put her training to as a lifeguard at Oceans of Fun when she saved a young girl from drowning.
"The intensity of it brings me back. When you have a save, it's so satisfying. Your adrenaline starts pumping and afterwards you just stand there shaking."
Life-threatening situations are the true test of skill for many lifeguards, but awareness at all times is crucial. Teske said.
"When you're on the stand and there are 3,200 bathers at the pool, you have to be paying close attention to your zone because you're under the public eye. If they see if you're not doing your job well that reflects poorly on you," she said.
"There is a stereotype by the public about lifeguards because they don't realize what goes into the job," he said. "They should know that it is a highly responsible job."
Despite the importance of lifeguarding, negative misconceptions of lifeguards persist, said Lockwood, a 31-year Aquatic Center employee.
Biology departments unite to draw students, money
By Graham K. Johnson
Kansan staff writer
The department of biochemistry, cell and molecular biology will merge with the department of microbiology July 1 to form a new department at the University of Kansas focusing on biomedical research.
The decision to merge the departments was approved last month by votes in both departments, said Robert Weaver, associate dean of humanities for the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences.
Weaver said that the new department would hire 12 faculty members including a nationally prominent scientist to serve as chair of the
department.
The new department was designed to improve research and to entice graduate students, he said.
"It will enhance our graduate education because we will have one unified program to sell to entering graduate students," Weaver said.
Another reason for the merger is to attract grant money available for biomedical research, said Mark Richter, associate professor of biochemistry and acting chair of the biochemistry, cell and molecular biology department.
the merger, at worst, will not affect current biology students, and, at best, may provide new possibilities for
interdisciplinary studies,
Richter said.
Weaver said that the merger was not coerced by the dean's office. Weaver also said that he supported consolidation of departments because it reduced duplication and competition among departments.
Weaver said that he supported a plan to combine the systematics and ecology department with the botany department but that further consolidation was unlikely
Herbert Fromm, professor of microbiology in the School of Agriculture at Iowa State.
Richter said that such mergers were happening throughout the country and cited recent developments at Iowa State University.
said that although one of its mergers was a success, a merger between two microbiology departments failed.
Fromm said that a good merger depended upon cooperation and compatibility.
"A natural working relationship between the faculty makes it a more healthy merger in the long run," Fromm said.
Weaver said it would take five to 10 years to see if the new department, which has yet to be named, would be successful. However, Richter is more confident of the future.
"I think change is always good," Richter said. "I don't see that it can fail."

Residence building permit protested for storm sewer
By Jenny Oakson
Kansan staff writer
The Lawrence City Commission decided to reconvene in three weeks concerning Lauren Harris' building permit for a second residence at 641 Illinois St. Many Lawrence residents publicly protested Harris' construction because of a known storm sewer that they feared would increase the velocity of an already dangerous surface water.
"I have pulled children out of cars because their mothers had stalled in about three feet of standing water," said Adra Burks, Illinois Street homeowner.
Area neighbors, their attorneys and the Old West Lawrence Association argued that construction over the storm sewer and former creek would not only cause the sewer pipe to break but would cause property damage to five of Harris' surrounding neighbors. Harris said that he planned to make a five foot channel for his 50 x 117 foot plot to allow for complete drainage, but neighbors argued that a ditch that size would be insufficient.
"The uniqueness of this area with existing and potentially severe surface water must be addressed by the city," said Kay Huff, attorney for area residents. "I don't think that this plot should ever be built on, and I ask the commission to reconsider Mr. Harris'
building permit, or perhaps purchase or condemn this site."
Chester Sullivan, who, along with Barbara Hawkins, is represented by Huff, owns the lot adjacent to 641 Illinois St. Sullivan said that the lot had remained vacant because of the 100-year-old storm sewer.
Burdett Loomis, political science professor and treasurer of the Old West Lawrence Association, is against building on the land. "The public policy here seems to say that even though the city made the mistake and approved the building permit, and construction may worsen the flooding problem, if Chester and Barbara have a problem they may take action through civil liability. That is a terrible policy," he said.
Lawrence storm water has frustrated the commission repeatedly in recent years. To address this issue, the commission and city staff created the storm pipe priority list, which names potential sewer pipes the city finds dangerous. The city also created the storm water management plan.
"I know that all the residents here are concerned with this serious flooding in the Sixth and Illinois Street area. But I find it rather confusing that no one ever submitted their address to the city's storm water priority list," said Commissioner Nalbandian.
Talent show proceeds will help purchase new sound system
FROTH Follies supports theater
By Warisa Chulindra Kansan staff writer
An audience of more than 200 people watched music and entertainment for the benefit of University Theatre.
FROTH Follies was held Friday at Crafton-Preyer Theatre. The variety and talent show helped raise funds for a new University Theatre sound system.
FROTH, which stands for friends of the theatre, provides financial support for University Theatre.
Private and corporate donations totaled more than $6,000, and ticket
Auditions for the FROTH Follies were held last month, and organizers were able to assemble a cast that included high school students, college students from several universities and members of the community. The show also had cameo performances by the music groups Troupe Ragh盐idad, Classic Edition and a group of University theater alumni.
KU alumnus Kip Niven was emcee,

Women engineers host program

The Society of Women Engineers is holding Project Discovery, a one-week program for high school women, June 7 to 13 at the University of Kansas.
Project Discovery's goal is to introduce the students to engineering as a profession and a field of study.
"It allows the girls to learn about engineering in a creative and enthusiastic learning atmosphere where they can exchange ideas without worrying about tests or grades," said Kelly Moylan, coordinator of the Women's Engineering Program and the Society of Women Engineers.
During the week, University engi neering faculty will speak with participants about various fields in which professional engineers work. Moylan said this would help students understand the research methods and problem-solving approaches engineers use.
Each student participates in
Working in the labs on either civil, aerospace or chemical engineering will allow the participants
to use fundamental concepts in mathematics, chemistry and physics to solve engineering design problems.
Participants also will visit TWA airlines at the Kansas City International Airport and the Colgate-Palmolive plant in Kansas City, Kan.
Project Discovery has evolved from previous summer programs the School of Engineering held for minority high school students.
Moylan said that only 18 percent of all engineers are women.
Benjamin also said programs like these were good for students who did not know their precise interests and that they showed students that engineering is a career choice.
Last year, the Women's Engineering Program and the Society of Women Engineers decided to begin a program that would increase the number of women in engineering.
Benzleel S. Benjamin, professor of architectural engineering, said it was important to encourage women's involvement in engineering.
Moylan said Project Discovery was a chance for the University and School of Engineering to recruit the best students possible.
The week will end with a presentation and awards ceremony in which students will share their experiences with parents, faculty and other Project Discovery participants.
Foliage report brings green to University

For the Kansas Applied Remote Sensing department at the University of Kansas, the color has both connotations, courtesy of the GreenReport.
The biweekly online report assists agriculturists around the nation while bringing extra money, in the form of NASA funding, to the University.
The GreenReport measures vegetation conditions across the United States using a series of four computer-
The maps represent vegetation on a color-coded chart. Areas that appear dark green in color are mature, healthy plants. Lighter-green sections show areas of lesser or emerging amounts of vegetation. Yellow or brown areas show sparse vegetation.
The color codes help forest rangers pinpoint potential brush fires, said John Lomas, researcher for the Kansas Applied Remote Sensing Department.
Lomas said the maps also helped agriculturalists compare vegetation health to previous years and plan for

"The GreenReport has allowed us to bring many dollars into the University," he said.
Kastens said some of the money received for GreenReport research and other Kansas Applied Remote Sensing research has been used to purchase computer equipment in Lindley Hall.
The report also has brought national
attention to the University.
The GreenReport and other Kansas Applied Remote Sensing department research has drawn the attention of Pat. Sen Roberts, Kastens said.
"It has been used by Dan Golden, the director of NASA, in a speech in Washington," Kastens said. "It is something to hold up to say we are doing something out there."
"It's much easier to get funding and support from the state and federal government," he said. "The GreenReport has allowed us to have credibility in the agriculture field."

Student dispels ignorance writing of life in Pakistan
Once someone asked me if people in Pakistan own televisions.
That comment marked the height of ignorance, but the fact remains that most of us are, to some extent, ignorant about the people of other nations — especially those in the eastern world. But that is to be expected of self-absorbed, mid-western college students. After all, there is not much international coverage in
the commonly available media in Lawrence. And let's face it, unless we are international relations majors, the status of impoverished Nigerian women is

not one of our top concerns
The recent nuclear situation on the subcontinent brought Pakistan and India to the center-stage and ushered in a global realization that Pakistan is not technologically backward, but how many of us spent the first two weeks of summer glued to CNN?
So when I talk about going to Pakistan for the summer, most people are curious to know what life without McDonald's is like. They assume Pakistan is a minimally developed, non-corporate desert. Many don't realize the significance of the fact that life without McDonald's is not life without McDonald's anymore.
Admittedly, Pakistan is still plagued with the common problems existent in a less developed country. Electricity fluctuates, there is not enough running water, there is no substantial middle class, and there are no concepts of social services or personal security. Added to that list are poverty, pollution, overcrowding, corruption and political violence.
But these things do not stand in the way of westernization. The
corporate world has invaded Pakistan through franchises of McDonald's, Subway, Kentucky Fried Chicken, United Colors of Benetton, Pizza Hut and Taco Bell. Satellite dishes provide homes with MTV, CNN, BBC, the Cartoon Network, TNT and unfortunately, shows such as Baywatch and Beverly Hills 90210. Young Pakistanians are avid fans of the Spice Girls and Backstreet Boys and watch movies like *Titanic* and *Good Will Hunting* on video before they leave American theaters.
Perhaps most importantly, the highly stereotyped role of women in Pakistani society is undergoing drastic changes. Contrary to popular images, most women no longer cover their heads and are demanding equality on many levels. They are entering business and politics and fostering grass-roots activism.
It goes without saying that Pakistan is nowhere near becoming the western world, but in many areas, it is developing quicker than we wish to believe. Despite this, the country retains a certain unique charm that is obsolete in the U.S. where everything seems to blend together and looks basically the same. Its charm lies in the occasional cow crossing the street, the colorful street bazaars where one can haggle a deal and the intricately hand-painted buses crammed with passengers hanging out of the sides.
We must overcome traditional stereotypes and outdated images as we enter an increasingly global world economically, politically and professionally. And it's no one-way street. I try everyday to convince my cousins from Pakistan that the average American college student is not Kelly or Brandon on 90210.

Drugs involved in Hartman case
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Alcohol, cocaine and a prescription anti-depressant were in Brynn Hartman's system after she shot and killed her husband, actor Phil Hartman, and then committed suicide.
released Monday showed. He had taken an over-the-counter cold medicine.
The Associated Press
Hartman, the 49-year-old star of television's NewsRadio and a former cast member of Saturday Night Live, did not consume any illegal drugs, toxicology results
The reports showed Mrs. Hartman, 40, had a blood-alcohol level of .12 percent, well above the .08 percent legal limit for California drivers. The alcohol mixed with the drugs amplified the effects, authorities said.
Los Angeles County coroner's Chief Investigator Craig Harvey said he was unsure when she had ingested alcohol. But he
said traces of cocaine in her blood showed she had taken the drug within five hours of her death.
Therapeutic levels of the prescription drug Zoloft also were found in her blood, Harvey said. He did not know whether Mrs. Hartman had a prescription for Zoloft, which is used to treat depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and panic disorder.
Coroner's investigators found
a prescription for an antibiotic but no other prescription medication in the house when they removed the Hartmans' bodies, Harvev said.
The Hartmans were found dead May 28 in their suburban Encino, Calif., home. Police said Mrs. Hartman shot her sleeping husband several times before shooting herself hours later.
The Hartmans' two children are living with relatives out of state.
Train wreck survivor search ends
The Associated Press
BERLIN— Rescue workers ended their search yesterday for remains at the site of last week's high-speed train disaster, and the German railway reopened the Hamburg-Hanover line to rail traffic.
Illustrating just how gruesome the crash was, officials lowered the death toll for a second time — from 98 to 95 — as forensic experts continued to piece body parts together to identify the dead.
Police representative Joachim Lindenberg said workers sifting through the last bit of sand found a women's watch and small
pieces of flesh before the site was turned to the railway today.
"Everything has been scoured that's there to be scoured," Lindenberg said.
An hour later, a regional train from Hamburg passed through at 44 mph — one-third the speed of the InterCity Express that derailed June 3 and slammed into a concrete bridge, crumpling the cars like tin cans.
The effect of the high-speed impact on bodies of the victims has made it difficult for officials to determine exactly how many people died. They believe 90 people died at the scene, and five died in hospitals.
All but one of the 95 victims has
been identified. police said.
Meanwhile, the German national railway said it was investigating a newspaper report that it had rejected an internal proposal in 1995 for an electronic monitoring system of the wheels on express trains.
Officials say they believe a broken wheel caused the wreck in the northern village of Eschede, although they have yet to determine what caused it to break.
The mass-market Bldf newspaper said the railway rejected the electronic monitors as impractical and unreliable.
Twelve of the 59 original model express trains pulled out of service for safety checks after the crash were back in service yesterday. Rail officials said no defects had been found yet.

Eleven people were taken to hospitals after the explosion at the elevator belonging to DeBrute Grain Inc. of North Kansas City, Mo. Three remained hospitalized in critical condition, one was in serious condition, two were fair and the others were treated and released.
Six of the people were rescued from the roof of the complex about five miles south of Wichita. One was flown to safety by helicopter, and the others were rescued by crane.

KJHK radio show cultivates Lawrence music talent

For Travis Millard, Olathe senior, plowing the fields every Friday afternoon does not mean climbing on a tractor.
As host of KJHK's "Plow the Fields," Millard is responsible for harvesting musical talent, not crops. The weekly three-hour radio show supports the Lawrence music scene by featuring local bands.
The show is the brainchild of Jacki Becker, a former KU student and KJHK disc jockey. Becker is vice president of Pipeline Productions, a local music promotion company.
"Kansas is synonymous with farming, and farming equals growing something fresh," Becker said. "I wanted the show to sow the fields of local music."
The program's DJ before Millard, Tum Humphrey, KU graduate, invited bands to play live on the show.
"The show gives people an opportunity to find out what local artists sound like and discover that there are actually records to buy that are of equal quality to nationally distributed records," Humphrey said.
With Humphrey, a five-piece band and equipment all in the 120-square-foot studio at the same time, the environment got crowded and chaotic.

90.7
After two years as the show's DJ, Humphrey recruited fellow art student Millard to become the host.
Millard said that "Plow the Fields" did not need improving and that he planned to keep up the pace set by Humphrey.
"Tom did a lot for the local music scene." Millard said. "It seems like pretty big shoes to fill."
Because Millard is a local musician, his songs were often featured on the show. He said that he felt weird about playing his own stuff.
For now, Millard just plans to concentrate on cranking out the local hits.
"Plow the Fields" is on 90.7 FM from 5 to 8 p.m. Fridays.
Local bands are encouraged to submit their music for the show
Lied Center adds series of cultural performing
The Lied Center began its sixth season counting down to the millennium.
"I am pleased to be able to offer diversity and this quality of performers for this part of the U.S.", said Jackie Davis, director of the center.
She said the idea to start the new series came from her travels to various countries, including Japan, Brazil and Africa.
Davis said that through the Cultural Countdown series, the center would have the opportunity to explore different areas in performing arts that they had not done previously.
"The Lied Center's intention for the following seasons are to investigate African-American, Asian-American and
Kansan Staff Writer
Native-American influences on the performing arts," Davis said.
The 1998-99 season will highlight Latino influences in contemporary performing arts bringing the Miami City Ballet, Culture Clash, Ballet Hispanico and Triangula. Workshops, panel discussions and lecture/demonstrations also will be held as part of the Latino artistic traditions.
The half-price discount will continue throughout the year, but after this date the general public also will be able to purchase tickets.
Starting this year, the Lied Center will add a multi-year project called Cultural Countdown that will focus on the most important cultural influences on the performing arts in the next millennium.
"Now the best seats are available to students, but after June 15th we will hold only 35 percent of the seats for them, but not necessarily the best places in the house," said Christilles.
A variety of events will be presented in the center throughout its five thematic series: Concert, Swarthout Chamber Music, New Directions, Broadway and Beyond, and Family.
Until June 15, individual and season tickets for University of Kansas and Haskell Indian Nations University students are available at the center for half-price as part of its campaign entitled "You Come First."

"Students can take advantage of any single event now," said Karen Christilles, the center's director of public relations.

It is 8 a.m. in Washington, D.C. and a groggy Sam Jayne shares a tall tale.
"She was giving somebody streaks, someone with lots and lots of hair," Jayne recalls of his first encounter with LAL's guitarist Jessica Espelta.
He and LAL's drummer were driving Honda Sprees down the street in front of the salon and decided to make a pit stop.
"We drove through the salon's front window," he said. "It was during the apologies that we asked Jessica to play in the band."
I could hear Jayne pouring himself something to drink, possibly coffee or orange juice but probably a cranberry beverage.
Was that encounter story really true?
Jayne, lead singer and guitarist for LAL, will play at the
Replay Lounge Tuesday night.
The group, formerly known as Love and Laughter was labeled by New Musical Express as "the fib four" and has developed a reputation for being masters at lying.
The fibers are leaving their home in Seattle to tour 18 cities including Minneapolis, New York and Chicago.
Constant touring leaves little time for production of a follow-up to their debut CD "#1 USA", however Jayne said fans could expect a second album soon.
"#1 USA" has been praised in London and Washington, D.C. Members of LAL hope their optimistic musical message will touch other cities.
"I'll tell you what it's not," Jayne said. "Our music's not negative. I mean, I hope not, because a lot of modern music right now is negative. Not rap or hard core but mostly alternative. It's bogus, it defeats us. And hey, it's not any fun."
Espelata offered another version of Jayne's tall tale about how they met.
"I was working at an ice cream parlor," she explained.

Lawrence resident trains to bike cross-country
By Michael Martin
Kansan Staff Writer
When Hao Nguyen committed to a cross-country bike ride for charity, she did not think her greatest challenge would come before the starting whistle.
The 28-year-old Lawrence resident committed to the benefit for the American Lung Association in February. By early May, she had raised slightly more than half of the $6,000 in required donations.
then her $2,700 bicycle was stolen.
"I cried," Nguyen said. "I couldn't even think."
But she knew giving up was not an option.
"I thought, okay, the bike's gone, but I need to persevere," Nguyen said. "I said. 'I'll go on a tricicle if I have to."
She sold egg rolls door-to-door. Friends helped her with a car wash. Downtown bars and businesses held benefit concerts. Her parents, owners of The Orient Vietnamese Restaurant on Massachusetts Street, donated each Sunday's proceeds. A
total stranger approached her at a coffee shop and gave her $15.
Today, two days before she leaves for Seattle to begin the ride, Nguyen is only $200 short of her goal. And she is getting one final push.
Coco Loco Cafe, 943 Massachusetts St., will sponsor a benefit dance for Nguyen tomorrow night. Kelfel Aqui, owner of Coco Loco, said that 100 percent of cover charges would be donated to Nguyen, along with proceeds from the evening's Tahleft sales
"We're going to have a world-class dance party." Aqui said. "And because we'll be sweating for a good cause, it'll be even more fun."
The last-minute benefit is not all that has come down to the wire for Newen.
Her insurance company sent her a replacement Schwinn Homegrown Factory CXR yesterday, only five days before the ride begins.
"It's like someone offering to loan you their toothbrush or shoes," she
Local merchants had offered to loan Nguyen a bicycle for training, but she refused.
said. "It's a very personal thing."
The original bike was a gift from a former boyfriend, with whom she coowned a car. When they broke up, he wanted her to pay for the bike. She let him take the car instead.
"A car is just transportation," she said. "When you get on a bike, it becomes an extension of yourself. You feel like it's a part of you."
Nguyen has wanted to help the American Lung Association for equally personal reasons," she said.
Her older sister has chronic bronchitis. Nguyen smoked since high school, a habit her training regimen forced her to leave in the dust when she began cycling 11 years ago.
The theft of her bicycle caused Nguyen to change her training regimen. Because she was unable to cycle outside, she trained on spinning machines at Robinson Gymnasium.
She noticed one difference right away; air conditioning.
"I thought, this is really unrealistic," she said. "There's not going to be air conditioning on the ride."
The six-and-a-half week ride, which begins in Seattle and ends in Washington D.C., begins on June 15. About 1,200 cyclists ages 17 to 72 and a support crew will cover 85 miles a day, stopping to camp periodically. Nguyen will carry 70 pounds of gear, including camping equipment, food and clothing.
So she trained in layers of shirts and long pants, attracting stares.
She worries about weather conditions.
"You think, 1,200 people. That's a small town," she said. "About showers, laundry facilities, I don't know how that's going to work."
The ride is noncompetitive, Nguyen said, but she will have an eye on her time. That is her nature.
After the ride, Nguyen plans to enter law school. She said that she would remember how a thief's capriciousness, then the generosity of strangers changed her course.
"I've learned patience, tenacity, conviction and that there are a lot of good people out there," she said.

Determination, hard work and passion for heptathlon sends Kansas athlete Candy Mason...
LEAPING TO NEW HEIGHTS
By Melinda Weaver Kansan staff writer
Ever since she was a young girl, Candy Mason has seen a clear path for her future: to run track at the University of Kansas.
Mason's track career began in her hometown of Nevada, Mo., when she saw a flyer for a track meet and begged her mom to let her compete. A club track coach witnessed her talent, and the rest is history.
At 8-years-old, Mason began competing in multiple events. She started with the triathlon which included high jump, 200 meter dash and hurdles. Through high school, Mason continued developing her track skills with one goal in mind.
"I wanted a scholarship," Mason said. "I've known all along that I need a scholarship to go to college. This gave me a chance."

When her senior year arrived, offers came in from across the country.
"I only took one recruiting trip," Mason said. "I've always wanted to be a Jayhawk. Being from Missouri, I was shunned!"

amazing results.
Her main event is the heptathlon, a seven-event competition which includes the 200 and 800 meter dash, 100 meter hurdles, high jump, long jump, javelin and shot put. In 1997 and 1998, her performances in the heptathlon earned her All-American honors.
This year, Mason's 5,571 points in the heptathlon broke the conference meet record and she was ranked sixth nationally.
At the Big 12 Conference Championship, she won the heptathlon and pole vault titles en route to becoming the Big 12 Outdoor Performer of the Year.
Mason also was named the Big 12 Indoor Performer of the Year after claiming the pole vault and pentathlon titles. Her 4,053 pentathlon points broke the school and conference meet record.
Despite having little pole vault experience prior to college, Mason also excels at that event.
"She is such a hard worker and good learner that she just picks things up," head coach Gary Schwartz said.
Despite not having a technical coach until college, Mason's talents have soared since she found the flyer in Nevada, Mo.
Mason clears the bar in pole vaulting at a recent meet. She has been awarded several honors during her career at the University. Contributed photo
"To be successful at something, you have to have a passion," Schwartz said. "She has the passion."
At the Texas Relays, Mason's jump of 12'-9 1/2" set the school and conference record and earned her a national second place ranking.
Mason earned All-American honors in the pole vault at the NCAA Indoor Championships with her second place jump of 12'71/2."
Mason's parents have been behind her since her mother initially gave her the permission to get started
"My parents are very supportive," Mason said. "My mom has missed maybe five meets."
Though Mason's plans after college are
uncertain, she said she wants to enter graduate school. Schwartz has offered her a position as a graduate assistant
One piece of her future is always a certainty.
"As long as my body holds up, I'll be running." Mason said.
Transportation fees to increase by $2
Full-time students pay to help fund additional weekend Saferide cars
By Duane Wagler
Kansan staff writer
Last month's Regent meeting made it official that the University of Kansas full-time students would pay $2 more per semester for campus transportation fees.
The increase continues the steady climb of campus transportation fees, said Nicole Skalla, chairwoman of the campus fee review subcommittee. Last year's transportation fee was $14, and in 1996 it was $12.
Most of the roughly $88,000 generated from the $2 hike will fund Saferide, said Aaron Quisenberry, assistant director of student finances and advisor for the transportation board.
Quisenberry said that $28,000 would be used to subsidize Lawrence Bus Company's contract price increase for Saferide from $80,000 last year to this year's
as a taxi to get home from places like Watson Library, the primary service is to keep intoxicated drivers off the road.
"The majority of our ridership comes from bars," Quisenberry said.
$108,000. Another $17,000 would be designated for adding extra weekend Saferide cars.

Saleride runs from 11 p.m. to 3 a.m.
Although some KU students use Saleride
Skalla said that last year's wait time for Friday and Saturday night riders was up to 40 minutes. She projected that next year's wait time would be cut from eight to four minutes with the
purchase of a sixth car.
September 1997 statistics show that Saferide fielded an average of 74 calls per night on Friday and Saturday with an average of 173 passengers per night as

opposed to an average of 35 calls and 62 passengers the other five nights.
Adam Mansfield, co-manager of Louise's Downtown, 1009 Massachusetts St., said that he thought the purchase of another Saferide car made sense because many students either drove themselves or found another way home rather than waiting outside for 45 minutes.

The first phase of the Memorial Stadium renovation is on target and should be completed by the first home football game on Sept. 5.
"So far it's on budget and on schedule," said Warren Corman, University architect.
Corman said construction workers were pouring concrete slabs for the lower-level concourse. They plan to finish by August so concession stands can prepare for the opening game.
Corman said that most of the first phase involved the lower level of the stadium. Ten main contractors and about 50 sub-contractors have added new restrooms with 100 more toilet fixtures and 10 new concession stands. New plumbing, including water and sewer lines, also has been laid.
Part of the renovation involves tearing out the old. McCook Hall, a former dormitory for football players built in 1946, has been demolished to improve crowd flow patterns.
Not all the renovations are hidden in the bowels of the stadium. Wrought-iron gates at the entrances will replace the old rotting wooden doors.
"We used to have a four-foot corridor for thousands of people to walk in between the old dorm and concession stands," Corman said. "Now we have three bays that must be 80 feet wide."
Built in the 1920s, Memorial Stadium's last major renovation was in 1963.
Total cost of the first phase of renovation is estimated at $14 million out of the $25 million estimated for the complete project, Corman said. Another $11 million will be allocated for a press box expansion that includes the addition of two levels of luxury suites. Press box expansion bids will go out at the end of this month.
The $25 million project will be funded by ticket surcharges and private gifts
Daren Cook, director of facilities for the Athletic Department, said fans would appreciate the improved restroom facilities and concession stands.
Convicted kidnapper sentenced to prison
Kipling Johnson, one of two men arrested in January on a charge of kidnapping two Douglas County residents, was sentenced to more than 24 years in prison yesterday in Douglas County District Court.
Johnson was arrested Jan. 24 when he surrendered to authorities after holding Ralph Leary hostage in home at 1509 N. 1100 Rd., for 45 hours. Leary's wife, Lelia, was released Jan. 22 after being held hostage for 12 hours.
Douglas County District Attorney Christine Tonkovic said that Johnson would serve 194 months for three counts of kidnapping, and 98 months for two counts of aggravated robbery. He was also given a total of 46 months for three other charges, which Tonkovic said he would serve simultaneously with his kidnapping sentence.
After Johnson's trial concluded, the trial of his alleged partner in the crime began. David Cox entered a plea of not guilty at his arraignment yesterday morning.
Cox was arrested Jan. 22 when he surrendered to authorities minutes after Leila Leary was released.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (June 10).
You may not be able to avoid practical matters any longer. Get realistic about romance in June. Study in July, and you can make a commitment in August. September could be very expensive or very profitable, depending upon how you play it.
Aries (March 21-April 19).
Resist the temptation to move too quickly. That is one of your most persistent problems. Remember to be sensitive and gentle, no matter what you do. At work, pay attention to the details. A little extra time spent now will be greatly appreciated later.
Taurus (April 20-May 20).
Somebody could try to push through a proposal that has serious flaws. If the idea will work, give it your agreement. If it is half-baked, send it back! For a good time, check out a club meeting or seminar tonight. You could meet an old friend.
Gemini (May 21-June 21).
Watch for a brilliant idea from an unexpected source this morning. Study a technical subject to keep ahead of the competition. The more you know, the more valuable you are. If your house needs cleaning, you should do that tonight. Company could drop by tomorrow.
You should be able to concentrate well today. If you have accumulated a stack of highly detailed work, dive into it. Avoid a person who wants to talk about something other than what you are trying to get done. Be firm, but polite, in defending your privacy.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22).
Is there something in your life that needs cleaning up? It is the time to do it. There is not much point in talking about things. Put off the delicate negotiations for a couple of days. Your love life should get better then.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
The moon is going into your sign and that always makes you feel great. There may be controversy raging around you, however. They are arguing about the best course of action to follow. You may be the only one who really understands the bottom line. Be firm, but be gentle.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).
This is not a good day for negotiations. People will haggle about every little detail. If you are trying to get a group to work together, concentrate on the business aspects and who is going to pay for it.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
A hassle this morning should be-settled by this afternoon. It should be easier to get interested in highly detailed work then. Discuss a household project with your true love this evening. You may decide to throw out the old and buy new.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
Today, your boss may expect perfection. You know what is supposed to be done. Stop arguing with reality and do it. Show you can play by the rules, and you may move up the ladder toward your next promotion quicker than you expected.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
Your memory should be working well, along with your ability to spot errors. If you have quality control inspection in your stack of work to be done, tackle that today. Postpone most social interactions until later in the evening.
Today will be marked by petty annoyances. They might get in the way of your peace of mind, but they should not stop you from getting the job done. They might help you develop a better product or service. Learn to accept constructive criticism gracefully.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20).
Life does not have to be overwhelming. If there is too much to do, spread the work around. A practical friend might be willing to help, if you would just ask. That would certainly make your afternoon more enjoyable. Expect a change in orders tonight.

CINCINNATI — Casey Martin is going to try to keep a low profile — something that is probably out of the question as long as he rides a cart — and enjoy every moment of his first U.S. Open.
Martin to use golf cart in U.S. Open debut
It took him four tries and an improbable finish to get there.
His 25-foot birdie putt on the second playoff hole clinched it and left him struggling to realize what had happened — and what comes next.
Martin thought he had blown his chance to qualify Monday when he double-bogeyed his 36th hole at Clovermoor Country Club. He sat in a car and watched raindrops dribble down the windshield while the rest of the field came in, then learned he had finished in a five-way tie for the final spot.
"I have never experienced the competition that will be out there," Martin said. "I have never experienced the pressure I'm probably going to feel. So I'm not getting my hopes up too much."
will be playing a tough course against some of the players who strongly objected to him riding in a cart. He won a court order last February allowing him to ride because a circulatory problem with his right leg makes walking painful.
"I'm going to fly around the Open. I don't think I'll need a cart. I'll be so pumped," he said.
His morning round started omnously when his newfangled, oneperson cart, shipped in for thequalifier, quit on the second hole. He had accidentally kicked thepower switch.

Martin walked two holes while the problem was uncovered. He also had difficulty adjusting to the green and gray cart, which has a different braking system than a standard, two-seat cart. He nearly clipped a course official when he hit a bump on one hole.
"There are a few kinks that need to get worked out." Martin said.
Despite the unfamiliar cart, Martin was among the leaders for the five U.S. Open berths when he teed off on the 36th hole, a 467-yard par-4. His first shot landed under a tree to the right of the fairway. His approach shot was short, and he needed two putts.
Martin was visibly angry after the double-bogey left him at 2-under-par 138.
"You work hard all day, play for eight hours, 36 holes. You get yourself in that position, and you can't finish it off — that would get you a little upset," said Philip Geiger, who was part of Martin's threesome.
Martin sat in a car with his friend, Eric Johnson, who also came in at 138.
"I cried on his shoulder," Martin said.

Chemists look at bandage to be used in eye surgeries
Technique aids post-surgery collagen heal
By Julie Sachs Kansan staff writer
Bandages are not just for cuts and scrapes anymore. Soon there will be a bandage used for surgery.
The technical term for the bandage is photostitching. It is a relatively new concept that chemistry professor Rich Givens and his research team are working to perfect.
Photostitching is a sort of chemist's bandage. It is made up of polypeptides and a secret bonding compound that researchers at the University of Kansas are still trying to uncover.
"It will be a major scientific advance, particularly a biomedical advance," said Barbara Schowen, professor of chemistry.
Photostitching is a new idea that
many of Givens' graduate students working on the project had not been introduced to before coming to the University.
Givens said that the photostitching procedure would one day be used in eye surgeries and possibly in surgeries dealing with the Achilles tendon.
These are the target areas of research because they contain a substance called collagen, Givens said. This soft substance takes several weeks to heal after surgery.
Givens said that through his research of photostitching he hoped to help the collagen heal more quickly and less painfully than what is possible through normal stitches.
"You can cut collagen, but it doesn't grow back well because few blood vessels bring nutrients to it," Givens said. "We are trying to circumvent mechanical suturing."
Photostitching entails using a chemical substance on the eye and then bonding it to the collagen on the eye with a laser. The substance would hold the incision closed the same way a bandage closes a small
"We are just beginning to see if it will all work. We are just using pieces of collagen that have been taken from animals. We are a long way from testing on humans."
Rich Givens Chemistry professor
"This bond will last a long time," Givens said.
cut.
The idea of using this laser stitching is going to be a fairly new process to the medical community.
"Using photoactive compounds has never been attempted," said Russel Herpel, Gower, Mo., graduate student. "We are the starting point."
Although the University is the current site of research for the project, the idea of photostitching was actually introduced to Givens and his researchers by George T. Timberlake, associate professor of ophthalmology at the KU Medical Center.
"Dr. Timberlake had been working on this before. He wanted to pursue the problem," Givens said. "He found out about me, and it led to a collaborative project."
But Givens said that the ideas that made up the basis for phot-stitching are a long way from completion.
"We are just beginning to see if it will all work," Givens said. "We are just using pieces of collagen that have been taken from animals. We are a long way from testing on humans."
Givens said that he and his researchers were still in the process of finding the compound that would actually bind to the collagen.
"We are still exploring," he said.
"This is just the beginning."
Classes free at Computer Center
By Tim Burger
Beginning this semester, KU students will no longer pay to take training classes at the Computer Center.
Kansan staff writer
The Computer Center offers a variety of classes teaching skills including e-mail training, the use of business software and web page construction. The sessions are free for all students, faculty and staff. Classes also are open to the public, but some require a $75 fee.
Because of the recent increase in fees for dial-in accounts, Academic Computing Services has
been able to hire additional personnel to teach computer training.
"We had some funding made available from central resources," said Jerry Niebaum, director of Academic Computing Services. "Since we had a budget surplus we were able to provide those services free."
Classes teaching how to browse the Internet and HTML classes, teaching web page construction, have been the most popular among students, said Jerree Catlin, supervisor for training and documentation for
Academic Computing Services. The classes are designed to teach specific skills in one three-hour session.
"All these hands-on classes have been developed so people who want to do e-mail and Internet browsing can sit down and learn how to do it." Catlin said.
Students normally take advantage of the training classes at the beginning of the semester when they are the most motivated to learn a new skill, Catlin said.
"The faculty are requiring more and more that students are familiar with technology."
Niebaum said. "This training is not provided in the general university education, so it becomes the students' responsibility to learn it."
Students who plan to attend should sign up at the Computer Center before coming to a session so that the classes do not become overcrowded.
Students who are interested or want to learn skills but cannot attend classes, can get more information from the Academic Computing Services web site at www.cc.ukans.edu/~acs/training.

Student Union Activities coordinators are working to finalize a summer activities schedule after the season's shaky start.
"We are trying to reschedule this band for July," said Tracie Schuler, graduate adviser. "We plan to have various Tunes at Noon concerts throughout the summer."
The first SUA activity of the summer, the free concert Tunes at Noon was to be held June 11in front of the Kansas Union. However, the band scheduled to perform, The Student Union, canceled because of time conflicts.
In addition to the concerts, SUA has planned other summer activities.
On June 19, SUA will show Liar Liar starring Jim Carrey at 7 and 9 p.m. at Alderson Auditorium in the Kansas Union.After the Sim.
Union. After the film, a live concert will be held from 9 to 11p.m.at the Jaybowl. Local band The Anniversary will perform, as will the Seattle band Roadside Monument.
SUA also will hold two showings of Men in Black starring Will Smith at 7 and 9 p.m., Friday July 10 at Woodruff Auditorium in the Union.
"We have someone working to line up bands for the concert. We just don't have any confirmations yet."
Mike Fine
SUA program coordinator
Although the movies have been released on video, SUA expects a good turnout from new student orientation sessions, Schuler said.
A live concert is tentatively scheduled at the Jaybowl after the Men in Black showing.
"We have someone working to line up bands for the concert," said SUA program coordinator Mike Fine. "We just don't have any confirmations yet."
Both movies are free to students and concessions will be sold in the auditoriums.

Minority Affairs teaches youths

Junior high students interested in college discover fun learning
By Beth Janes
Kansan staff writer
While most of his classmates sleep late during summer vacation, Jerimiah Lyles is up at 8:30 a.m. and makes his way to the Multicultural Resource Center. There he completes math problems and studies grammar. But Lyles isn't taking summer school. He is one of 17 students participating in the Minority Affairs Project Outreach Program Summer Enrichment that began Monday.
The half-day program, sponsored by the Office of Minority Affairs, serves ethnic minority junior high school students in the Lawrence area who exhibit strong academic potential and interest in attending college. The program runs for two and a half weeks and focuses on enriching math, communication and study skills.
"We get the typical 'this is just like school' kind of thing, but that is a compliment to us. It means that we are doing everything right," said Gloria Flores, associate director of the Multicultural Resource Center and the program's coordinator.
Flores emphasizes that the program is not remedial. Students must be interested in further developing their skills and want to continue their education after high school to participate. Flores and her assistants try to prepare students for college.
"At this age group, their minds are open to so much, and through these programs, they can grasp on to anything," said Leonard Huerta, graduate assistant for the program. "We try to make sure there's a balance between them knowing there's a time to be serious, like when we're learning particular subjects, but we also want them to enjoy themselves. We want them to know that what's it like when they get to college And I think we do a good job of making that clear."
Flores and her assistants accomplish this balance by providing students not only with math and grammar/writing lessons but with other activities such as cultural bingo and field trips. Both the faculty and the
students said they were looking forward to a trip to University of Kansas Medical Center.
A shadow day also has been planned in which students will follow faculty from the University throughout the day. Tashia Bradley, graduate assistant and certified eighth grade teacher, said that it exposes students
to college campuses.
"I'm continually blown away at how bright they are. We'll ask if anyone read a book, and they'll go on and on," Huerta said. "I think we even learn from them sometimes."
Lyles said the program was cool and that he liked the program's faculty.
"I'm just glad they are not like my teachers last year," he said. "They are more fair, and we can actually relate to them."
Huerta said the students, who were from all four Lawrence junior highs, seemed energetic about learning.
After the first day of the program,
Exhibit displays periodical, noisy insect
Kansan Staff Writer
By Elissa Harris
The buzzing of a mass emergence of the periodical cicada has hit the Midwest. The insect and its unusual 17-year journey is the focus of an exhibit at the Natural History Museum at the University of Kansas.
CICADES
The image shows a collection of cicada shells arranged in rows and columns. Each cicada shell appears to have a glossy surface with some visible markings or indentations. The number of cicadas is not clearly visible, but it can be counted by counting the individual shells. The background is white, and there are no other objects or text present.
After 17 years of eating and growing, hundreds of thousands of the beetle-sized bugs have emerged across the Midwest, from as much as two feet underground, with a plan to mate in the trees.
The exhibit of cicada pictures, specimens and facts is a journey through the insect's mysterious life cycle.
An exhibit at the Natural History Museum describes the life cycle of cicadas. Photo by Roger Nomer/KANSAN
Scientists have never fully understood why these cicadas only appear once every 17 years.
"The emergence is a very unique thing. It only happens a few times in a person's lifetime, and there are a lot of mysteries about it," said Tom Swearingen, exhibits director for the Natural History Museum
The male cicadas emerge first and form choruses of courtship in the trees. The mute females then emerge and begin a mating flight. One tree may hold hundreds
of male cicadas.
The red-eyed, black-and-yellow-bodied cicadas have orange wings, are smaller, and have a different song than the familiar green
"dog day" cicadas that appear yearly in late summer.
but cicadas are more closely related to the aphids found on rosebushes.
Cicadas are often incorrectly referred to as locusts. Locusts are similar to grasshoppers.
Confusion results from the two insects' similar sound, said George Byers, professor emeritus of entomology and exhibit adviser.
"They're not even remotely alike, though," he said.
cicadas emerged in the middle of May. They are evident across the Midwest, from southwest Iowa through northwest Missouri, Oklahoma, eastern Kansas, and eastern Nebraska.
Cicadas are lucky to live two weeks because they are preyed upon by birds, dogs, cats and snakes.
The music of the cicadas may have been silenced before its time this summer because of recent cold and wet weather. Byers said. The cicada exhibit is targeted to adults.
"We feel like there is an interest among adults. An awful lot of people have been calling about them," said Brad Kemp, assistant director for public affairs for the Natural History Museum.
The exhibit is on the fifth floor of the Natural History Museum. Museum hours are 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Saturday, and noon to 5 p.m. Sunday.
Grant funds health centers AIDS studies
By Leslie Potter
Kansan staff writer
When it was first discovered, it caused a contagion of fear. Those who had it felt hopeless and were often shummed. Many thought that the world would see a repeat of the "black plague."
The Health Promotion and Education Center at Watkins Memorial Health Center wants to educate University of Kansas students about HIV/AIDS.
"AIDS is becoming reality," said Deb Howes, health educator at Watkins. "Before, it was a scare, and now it's something we live with. It is still a scare today since there is no cure, and someone is diagnosed with HIV everyday. And that is why we need to teach students how to protect themselves."
According to the American College Health Association, HIV, Human Immunodeficiency Syndrome, is the virus that causes AIDS. AIDS, Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome, is a set of diseases that follows an infection that attacks the body's immune system.
The Kansas Department of Health and Education contacted all of the universities in the state of Kansas last November because the Center for Disease Control was offering a grant for AIDS training for women of child-bearing age. Howes said. Howes and Candyece Waittley, coordinator of the Health Promotion and Education Center, wrote a proposal for the grant, Howes said. In January, the Health Promotion and Education Center found out that they had received a grant for $25,000. Howes said.
Katy Ferrarin, health educator at Watkins, set up five programs last spring semester to educate KU women on HIV/AIDS.
"We had programs on HIV related topics," Ferrarinsi said. "We had one on relationships and communications, sex and alcohol, and we also had peer educators and speaker Dan Renzi from Kansas City who was on MTV's Real World."
The programs were held at Hashinger Hall and Gertrude Sellards Pearson-Corbin Hall. About 100 students attended each program, Howes said.
The Health Promotion and Education Center will continue more programs in the fall semester which it will plan out this summer, said Ferrarini.
The programs is directed at KU women, but men are welcome.

Ferrariin said the programs were open to anyone that wanted to learn about HIV/AIDS
at a faster rate that men are, and that's why KDHE wanted us to focus on women." Howes said. "But if there are any males who want to attend the programs, we are not going to turn them away."
"College students know about HIV and most of them know how it is transmitted," Howes said. "But we are seeing an increase in the number of college students who have contracted HIV because students are not protecting themselves. We developed the programs to try an prevent this increase."
Even though the number of women who have contracted HIV is increasing, the overall number of people who have contracted the virus is declining, and the number of people dying from AIDS is also declining, said Howes.
For people interested in taking an AIDS training course this summer, KDHE, the American Red Cross HIV/AIDS Network, and Kansas State University are offering "1998 Basic HIV/AIDS Training: Fundamentals for Educators." The course is from June 16 to 18 at the United Way Center for Human Services in Lawrence, said Barbara VanCortlandt, KDHE HIV/AIDS Training Specialist.
"This course is for educators, nurses, social workers, health care workers, counselors, and anyone else interested in HIV/AIDS." said VanCortlandt.
The course is from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily with a one hour lunch, said VanCortlandt. The registration fee is $55 for materials and snacks. Advanced registration and payment are required, said VanCortlandt. Interested students should call Kansas State University at 1-800-432-8222 to register.

Commentary
Jim Carney changes the pace with his new role as Truman Burbank in *The Truman Show*, a light-hearted character trapped in the made up world of a 24-hour television show. Photo courtesy of Pamounts picture/copyright 1998
Truman Show may be closer than it appears
By Jeremy M. Doherty jdoherty@kansan.com Kansan movie critic
As a portrait of the forces that feed our TV-dominated, fast-food culture, Peter Weir's The Truman Show could not be more timely.
Like a less hyper version of Natural Born Killers, Weir's insightful satire skewers our media-dominated world, providing a glimpse of the forces that feed the beast.
Jim Carrey's portrayal of Truman Burbank, a lighthearted fellow who is the unknowing subject of a 24-hour live TV show, is frightening in a way that recalls the pseudo-realism of Dr. Strangelove. Anyone who has sat through countless hours of O.J. Simpson news or MTV's The Real World will know that Truman's fishbowl world is not far removed from our own.
In a remarkable change of pace, Carrey nearly abandons his traditional grab bag of rubber faces to play the likable Truman. He lives in Seahaven, a water-bordered town perpetually locked into a David Lynch-inspired vision of the '50s.
Truman's wife Meryl (Laura Linney) channels June Cleaver, singing the praises of slicerdicers and cocoa mixes.
Similarly, his buddy Marlon (Noah Emmerich) pauses during their nightly guy-bonding to advocate a particular brand of beer.
Everything and everyone in Seahaven has been carefully orchestrated by Christof (Ed Harris), an acclaimed televisionary. Christof adopted Truman from the womb and has been filming every moment of his life with more than 5,000 miniature cameras placed inside clothing buttons and household appliances. Truman's friends, co-workers and family members are only actors performing a non-stop improvisation act.
For much of The Truman Show, Weir and screenwriter Andrew Niccol avoid any strict plot, cutting back and forth between Truman's cookie-cutter life. Christof's control of that life and the brainwashed masses who happily devour it.
Everything changes when Truman spots his deceased "father" quite alive and wandering around city streets. Studio flood lights plummet from the cloudless blue skies, and Truman observes Christof's stage grips moving furniture behind cardboard sets.
THE TRUMAN SHOW
Kansan Rating: **1/2 out of **** (three and one-half stars out of four)
Running time: 1 hour, 45 minutes
In response, Christof launches damage control. Convinced that his artificial world serves Truman better than the harsh realities outside, the producer seizes upon his star's insecurities to quash a possible escape attempt.
Rated PG for adult themes and mild language
Although the conflict between Truman and Christof drives the movie, Weir's treatment of viewing audiences sticks. Showing how years of vicious living have muted the outrage they should feel at Truman's exploitation, Weir repeatedly returns to those who watch Truman's adventures as though it were Monday Night Football.
It is a bleak statement for Weir to make. But in an age in which tabloid shows and 24-hour news channels have risen to the top of the culture, it cannot be ignored.
Commentary
Murder not quite perfect
Thriller update fails to deliver with new cast
By Jeremy M. Doherty jdoherty@kansan.com Kansan movie critic
Alfred Hitchcock made many great thrillers, but Dial M for Murder was not among them.
Although clever, and despite Ray Milland's beautiful slimy turn as the husband who plots to kill his unfaithful wife, Hitchcock never injected the movie with the right amount of creepy other-worldliness that marked stronger offerings such as Vertigo and Rear Window. The makers of A Perfect Murder, then, had their work cut out for them. An update of Hitchcock's 1954 entry, it scores points in casting Michael Douglas in the Milland role and snagging Andrew Davis (The Fugitive) to fill the director's seat. Davis skillfully casts his version in the cold, neo-noir tones found in contemporary thrillers such as Seven and The Usual Suspects.
Michael Douglas is the highlight of his new film *A Perfect Murder*. Photo courtesy of Warner Brothers/copyright 1998
The plot is essentially identical to that of the original. In both, a well-to-do husband discovers that his wife (Grace Kelly in 1954, Gwyneth Paltrow today) has been unfaithful. His solution is to hire some schmo to kill her while he is away playing poker at a gentlemen's club, neatly providing him with an alibi.
What stops this remake dead in its tracks is an uneven tone and surprisingly shallow characters. The script, by first-timer Patrick Smith Kelly, routinely gives the characters rambling, only-in-the-movies monologues in which they recount their sorrowful life stories. Even folks who have not seen Hitchcock's movie should have no trouble guessing that Taylor's murderous plan will veer off course.
In an inventive twist, Douglas' Steven Taylor decides to recruit his wife's lover (Viggo Mortensen) to do the deed for $500,000. As it turns out, this other man, while on the surface a mild mannered artist, is actually an ex-con who specialized in extorting money from rich old ladies. Once the wife is out of the picture, Taylor, whose own financial empire stands on the verge of collapse, stands to inherit $100 million of her family's cash.
However, watching Douglas play another greedy, rich white guy is almost worth the price of admission. He owns this cinematic persona much like Robert De Niro owns the psychopath market. That being said, he does not do anything that we have not seen already in better, smarter films such as The Game and his Oscar-winning Wall Street.
Also of note is Mortensen's gradually eerie presence in the film. The actor, whose sinister Navy Seal was the sole reason for sitting through Demi Moore's laughable G.I. Jane, finds the perfect rhythm
A PERFECT MURDER
Kansan Rating:** ** out of *****
Running time: 1 hour, 50 minutes
Rated R for language, violence and sexuality
here for a soulless character who would kill his lover for money.
In the end, the film's success lies in Davis's ability to one-up the Master of Suspense. He fails. Davis's movie lacks bite, which is odd considering that The Fugitive had so successfully evoked an ominous "Hitchcockian" atmosphere. In a thriller supposedly about unseen horrors lying underneath the surface, that is a component we cannot do without.

Brownback holds hearing on lyrics, labels
By Michael Martin
Kansan staff writer
A congressional hearing led yesterday by Sen. Sam Brownback sounds like censorship to the music-industry campaign, Rock the Vote.
But the senator's office — citing his voting record — disagrees.
Brownback, a KU alumnus, led the hearing on Capitol Hill titled "Labels and Lyrics: Do Parental Advisory Labels Inform Consumers and Parents?" About 12 witnesses, ranging from a music-industry representative to the chairwoman of the Parents' Music Resource Center, were scheduled to testify on the effect of explicit lyrics and parental-advisory CD labels.
"The position of Rock the Vote is that this is a censorship issue," said Travis Falstead, program coordinator for the nonpartisan industry campaign to increase voter awareness. "It could lead to concert ratings and make it illegal to sell parental-advisory-stickered CDs to minors."
Falstead visited Lawrence last week to inform local radio stations about the hearing. He said Congress increasingly discusses music-related issues with little publicity and without public feedback.
"It's ridiculous," Falstad said. "You don't hear about it unless you watch C-SPAN."
Cherie Harder, domestic policy director for Brownback, said that Brownback was opposed to music censorship and had no such legislation pending or proposed. Brownback has stated no position on parental-advisory labeling and yesterday's hearing was informational, she said.
ROCK
THE
VOTE
"Sen. Brownback stands for protecting free speech," Harder said. "But freedom of expression is not immunity from criticism. People lose that distinction."
In a speech before the City Club of Cleveland on March 23, Brownback blasted gangraps and artists such as Marilyn Manson, which he labeled "shock rock," claiming that songs such as Prodigy's "Smack My Bitch Up" and Nine Inch Nalls "Big Man With A Gun," glorified violence and glamorized rape.
"When MTV named Marilyn Manson 'best new artist of the year' last year, they held Manson up as an example to be aspired to and emulated." Brownback said. "The fact that certain forms of speech should be allowed does not mean they should be honored, or given respectability. The proper response to offensive speech is criticism — not censorship, and not anyta."
In the past two congressional sessions, Brownback has voted against the TV ratings system and the Communications Decency Act, a proposal to regulate the Internet.
On November 7, 1997, Brownback held a hearing on music lyrics and youth behavior which drew criticism for bias. The Recording Industry Association of America reported in a press release that Hilary Rosen, its president and CEO, was the only music-industry representative allowed to face five opposing panelists.
Harder said the RIAA's assertion was untrue. More than one music-industry representative was invited in November, she said.
Industry figures such as Rosen, Marilyn Manson, Madonna and the editor of Billboard magazine were invited to yesterday's hearing. All declined to testify.
Scheduled witnesses included the dean of the Annenberg School of Communications, an entertainment magazine editor and the
president of the National Association of Recording Merchants.
Falstead, who stressed that his personal opinions did not reflect those of Rock the Vote, questioned Brownback's justification for the hearing.
"I don't want my tax money to be used for flying people all over the country for educational purposes," he said. "They're either having the hearing to waste time or to apply to legislation in the future."
Falstead said that nearly a dozen bills involving music-industry regulation were pending in Congress.
Roger "the Dodger" Formanek, a DJ for 105.9 The Lazer, the station had begun airing public service announcements that focused on awareness, not partisanship.
Sen. Sam Brownback's e-mail address is sam_brownback@brownback.senate.gov.
His web site, which includes legislative information, is located at www.senate.gov/~brownback. Rock the Vote's web site is located at www.rockthevote.org.

CORRECTION
Because of a reporter's error, The University Daily Kansan misidentified Nicole Skalla, Salina sophomore, as chairwoman of the campus fee review subcommittee. Skalla is the transportation coordinator for KU on Wheels.
In the same story a quote also was wrongly attributed to Aaron Quisenberry, transportation board adviser. Skalla said that the majority of users of Saferide were from local bars during weekends. She said that during the week Saferide mostly served students going home from campus.
University attracts minorities with visits
By Duano Waglor
Kansan staff writer
Statistics at the Office of Admissions based on 1998 summer orientation figures show that Native-American freshman admissions increased from 56 to 80, Asian-American freshmen from 265 to 316 and African-American freshmen from 285 to 350. Hispanic-American admissions dropped from 214 to 213.
Kathleen McCluskey -Fawcett,
associate provost, said that the
overall increase was not an accident.
Admissions for minority freshman at the University of Kansas are projected to increase 17 percent this fall from fall of 1997.
"We've done a lot of special efforts to make that happen," she said.
"Getting students on campus sometime during their junior or senior year during high school makes a huge difference." McCluskey-Fawcett said.
Most of those efforts center on campus visits.
Adding a pioneer overnight program to KU Multicultural Senior Days last year was a success, said Robert N. Page Jr., coordinator of multicultural recruitment for the Office of Admissions. Of the 25 students who participated in last
"These students are not minority students in many of their own neighborhoods and many of their own high schools and communities."he said.
Patty Iga, Plano, Texas, junior, said that the Multicultural Days she attended helped her get acquainted with resources such as the Office of Minority Affairs.
Another event held during fall and spring semesters is Multicultural Junior Days, a two-day program for high school juniors that began last year. Page estimated that between 500 and 600 students participated in multicultural campus visits last year.
Alan Cerveny, director of admissions, said he thought that minority students benefited from the campus visits by experiencing first-hand the differences between the University and home.
"The reason that I liked it was that it was geared toward minorities," she said.
year's overnight program, more than half chose to come to the University, he said.
Cerveny expressed optimism that the trend of increased minority admissions would continue. He said that the May symposium on the recruitment and retention of minority students was another step in the

Assistant vice chancellor named
Ballard's promotion is 'a logical transition'
By Duane Wagler
Kansan staff writer
Barbara Ballard will become assistant vice chancellor for student affairs on July 1.
"I'm looking forward to my new responsibilities," she said. "I love challenges."
The move was a logical transition from Ballard's 18-year career as director of the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center and more recently as associate dean of student life, said David Ambler, vice chancellor for student affairs.
Ambler said Ballard's new position was a promotion and so a formal search was not done. Ballard's appointment was announced on June 11.
"This position needs someone who is already familiar with KU and its academic programs," he said. "Barbara came to the top very quickly as an ideal person for this kind of responsibility."
Ballard: appointed as assistant vice chancellor.
PETER C.
Ambler said that Ballard would be involved next year in placing branches of the math and writing
One of Ballard's primary responsibilities will be to continue the University's student-retention efforts.
"With the opening of Templein this past year as our first renovated residence hall, we made a commitment to provide additional academic services and programs right in the residence halls." Ambler said.
Ballard also will coordinate a campus task force to combat alcohol abuse. The purpose of the task force is to unite programs on campus addressing alcohol problems—whether at Watkins
clinics in Templin Hall. She also will help install a reading and study skills program in the hall's Student Development Center.
In addition to her position at the University, Ballard serves in the Legislature as representative of the 44th district. She will take an unpaid leave of absence during the legislative session from January through mid-April.
Ballard also will be involved in improving the University's leadership development programs. Ambler said that she would assist with fund raising issues.
Memorial Health Center or at the residence halls.
Encouraging organizations to help solve the problem of alcohol abuse would increase student awareness. Ballard said.
Ballard has earned many awards and honors from the University. These include the Distinguished Service Award from the Committee on Multicultural Affairs and the Citation for Leadership and Achievement in Student Services. She was inducted into KU's Women Hall of Fame.
Ballard earned a bachelor's degree from Webster College in St. Louis, and a master's degree and doctorate in counseling from Kansas State University.

Rough child's play leads to death of tabby cat
A Lawrence cat lost the last of its nine lives Saturday when it was thrown by a 7-year-old girl into a neighbor's yard, where it was attacked by a dog. Lawrence police said.
The cat, a tabby, was thrown over the fence between 11:30 and 11:45 a.m. in the 900 block of East 13th Street, said Satt. Richard Nickel.
"The cat evidently succumbed to injuries inflicted by the dog." Nickel said.
The suspect was described as a large dog, but Nickel said he did not know what breed it was.
Matthew Pracht, the owner of the cat, said the girl and a friend had been in his back yard playing with the victim and a second cat.
"From what a neighbor told me later, I guess they were yelling 'Get it, get it,' Pracht said. "One of my cats freed itself, but the friendier one played with them."
Pracht said that the girl first tossed the cat into a neighbor's yard on the west, but the dog in that yard was friendly.
"Then they threw her into the next yard over, and the dogs there basically destroyed her," Pracht said.
Nickel said the girl would not face any kind of legal action.
"Because of the child's age, she certainly can't be held responsible," he said.

Dean at Pittsburg State named Regents director
The Board of Regents named Thomas Bravant its interim executive director Monday
Bryant, dean of the school of education at Pittsburg State University, will take his post July 1.
He will direct an 18-person staff and will oversee the University system's $1.31-bill
lion budget. Bryant will serve as executive director while the Regents conduct a national search to replace Regent Stephen Jordan, who resigned May 1 to become president of Eastern Washington University in Cheney, Wash.
Bryant said he was interested in his new job because he would be able to work with different groups, including groups from community colleges, legislators and the governor's office.
"My main goal right now is just to make sure that the lines of communication are open and that dialogue takes place," he said.
Bryant was hired at Pittsburgh State in 1970 as a professor in the department of health, physical education, recreation and dance. He served as chairman of the department from 1985 until 1993, when he was named dean of education.
Bryant earned his bachelor's degree from Drury College in Springfield, Mo. He earned a master's degree from Pittsburg State and a doctorate in education from the University of Arkansas.

World Wide Web is site of baby boy's delivery
ORLANDO, Fla.  — A boy's birth was shown live on the Internet yesterday.
America's Health Network, a cable television network, broadcast the birth on its Web site.
Cameras were held at the side and in front of the woman giving birth, but nurses' backs blocked any view of the delivery.
The baby, Sean, was born at 9:40 a.m. "Here comes Sean's head. He has a lot of hair on his head," said Walter Larimore, who narrated the birth for the Internet audience.
Sean's mother, a 40year-old woman identified as Elizabeth, groaned several times before the 7-pound, 8-ounce baby popped his head out.
She was approached about the idea of broadcasting her delivery because of her
history of easy childbirth and quick labor. Sean is Elizabeth's fourth child.
At least 50,000 people tried to log on to the Web site, overwhelming the system, which was set up for about 10,000 people at a time. Even the network's technicians had trouble accessing the site.
The Orlando-based cable network's claim that it showed the world's first delivery on the Internet was disputed by Tammy Barnes, 26, of Golden, Colo., who said her baby's birth was shown on the Internet in February.
Milosevic will negotiate with Kosovo, Yeltsin says
WASHINGTON — President Clinton wanted Russian President Boris Yeltsin to emphasize to Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic that Yugoslavia might face military pressure unless Milosevic stopped Serb violence in Kosovo.
"Our judgment is Milosevic listens very carefully to what President Yeltsin has to say," said Mike McCurry, White House press secretary.
According to Interfax, a Russian news agency, Yeltsin said that Milosevic had agreed to negotiate peace with Kosovo separatists. The two met in Moscow yesterday.
In a show of force intended to discourage Serb attacks, NATO sent warplanes near the Kosovo border Monday.
Russia has consistently opposed using force against the Serbs.
The U.S. envoy to the Balkans, Richard Holbrooke, said that regardless of any resolution reached by Yeltsin and Milosevic, international monitors would have to ensure that the terms of the agreement were honored.
More than 300 people have been killed since March as Milosevic's army and police have cracked down on dissent in Kosovo province, where ethnic Albanians outnumber Serbs by nine to one. About 65,000 people have been forced to leave their homes.
Russia joined the United States and six other nations Friday in insisting Milosevic withdraw Serb forces, agree to a cease-fire.

INTERNATIONAL North Korea declares intention to sell missiles
SEOUL, South Korea — In an open challenge to U.S. efforts to curb global missile proliferation, North Korea declared today that it would continue developing, testing and selling missiles.
The declaration, carried by the North's official Korean Central News Agency, marked the first time the hard-line communist country had admitted selling missiles abroad.
For years, U.S. officials have said they had evidence that North Korea was selling Scud missiles to Iran and Syria. But the Clinton administration's efforts to persuade North Korea to curb or stop such sales have failed.
In 1996, the United States began talks with North Korea aimed at persuading it to freeze its missile program and to join an international agreement designed to restrict missile proliferation.
But the talks soon stalled. The latest round of negotiations was canceled abruptly last August, and no new discussions are scheduled.
North Korea, gripped by severe food shortages and diplomatic isolation, sees a way out by striking major diplomatic deals with the United States.
It agreed in 1994 to freeze its suspected nuclear weapons program in return for fuel, replacement nuclear power plants and other economic and diplomatic benefits.
North Korea said it could discuss missile non-proliferation with the United States if Washington signed a peace treaty with it that excluded rival South Korea and compensated North Korea for an expected loss of income from missile sales.
The United States is technically still at war with North Korea after leading U.N. forces on the South's side during the 1950-53 Korean War.

The KU Office of Public Safety has begun hiring new officers for next semester.
In addition to hiring four or five additional patrol officers, the office also will hire two more dispatch and communications operators.
"We are hoping to have our new officers hit the street no later than January of next year," Mailen said.
Sgt. Troy Malen, the newly appointed supervisor of the office's community education and media unit, said that it would be a while before the new officers began patrolling.
The office is divided into three branches, including police, security and emergency communications. The office employs 28 University officers. Starting salary is $10.53 an hour.
"Before last year, the last time we hired new officers was 1991," he said. "It all just depends on whether or not we lose anybody."
Sgt. James E. Anguiano said that the hiring of new police officers was not a frequent occurrence.
Those individuals who have yet to receive Kansas law enforcement training will be sent to Hutchinson for police academy.
Many applications already have been taken, and interviews began last week. Any prospective candidate must be at least 21 years old, have a valid driver's license, have never been convicted of a felony and have either a law enforcement certificate or have attended police academy.
After the new officers are hired, they will be required to complete three months of field-supervised training and will be paired up with an experienced officer for their first patrols, Anguiano said.
The office plans to have all new officers hired by the end of July, after which they will be placed on probation as police officer trainees for one year.
"The probation period is just designed for the trainees to prove they can perform the job satisfactorily." Anguiano said.
Anguiano said that being a good law enforcement officer required more than just being tough and good at handling a hectic schedule.
"A good police officer is dedicated to helping others, regardless of the situation," he said. "In order to make it in this line of work, more than anything else, you really have to feel you can help make a difference."

University police get promotions
Both officers have history with campus
By Jorry Jackson Kansan staff writer
Maj. Chris Keary and Sgt. Troy Mailen go to work each morning at the University of Kansas Office of Public Safety, as they have for the past 11 years.
The KU Office of Public Safety has promoted both Keary and Mailen within its police division as a result of personnel changes.
In 1979, Keary, a Hays native, came
Since the beginning of June, however, they have each walked into new offices.
Keary, 36, was the sergeant supervising the community education and media unit for the office, a position he had held since February 1996. Since June 1, Keary has been the assistant director of public safety, the person in charge of the police division. Those are just two of many positions he has held in law enforcement.
to Lawrence to attend the University. Two years later, he applied for a part-time job as a communications operator/dispatcher with the KU police.
"At the time I just needed a part-time job for extra money," Keary said. "I didn't have any real long-term plans."
A year later, Keary took a full-time position as a communications operator/dispatcher and graduated in 1983 from the University with a bachelor of science degree in computer science.
Mailen's family has been part of the University community for some time.
Although his uncle was a Kansas highway patrolman, Keary said he had never thought much about following in his uncle's footsteps until 1987, when he applied for a police officer position at the University.
"I spent some time hunting for a good job in the computer science field, but my experiences at KU and in the Lawrence community were always in the back of my mind." Keary said.
That same year, Keary attended the police academy in Hutchinson, where he met Mailen. They were roommates at the academy. Both men were tight-lined about the experience.
Maillen, 36, was born in Ellsworth but grew up in Lawrence.
His father works in the instrumentation shop at facilities operations, his mother works at Watkins Memorial Health Center and his sister works with the KU geological survey.
After serving five years in the Air Force, Mallen applied for a job as a campus security officer at the University in September of 1986.
"I was somewhat interested in the job, but my intention was to use security as a foot in the door for law enforcement." Mailen said.
When Mailen applied for a police officer position the following year, his path crossed with Keary's, and since then their lives have been somewhat parallel.
In early 1990, both Keary and Malien applied for sergeant positions with the KU police and were promptly promoted.
"There is never really a slow period in community education and media," Keary said. "There is always a project
Six years later, Keary was promoted to the position of sergeant supervising the community education and media unit. From that position, he was responsible for speaking to the press and the community on behalf of the KU police.
or something coming down to keep you busy and constantly on your toes."
June 1, Keary was promoted to the rank of major and selected from more than 100 applicants for the position of assistant director of public safety. This promotion makes the one-time dispatcher the new head of the police division of the KU Office of Public Safety.
As for Sgt. Mailen, he was promoted this month to the position of sergeant supervising the community education and media unit.
Both Keary and Malen are married, and each has two children.
Although both men said they had enjoyed their previous positions with the KU Office of Public Safety, they said they were looking forward to opportunities that would come with their promotions.
"From what I understand, the community education and media unit is good experience for officers who haven't worked a lot with reporters or with the community," Maailen said.
Keary agreed with Mailen about the benefits of the new promotions.
"The promotion means a lot," Keary said. "It's now my responsibility to see that the officers have the tools they need to serve the University and the community."

New rec center, Saferide on Senate summer agenda
By Liz Wristen
By Liz Wriston
Kansan staff writer
Many Student Senate members are not getting a vacation from their positions during the summer semester.
Members of the Senate and Student Executive committees, as well as a representative from each of the five other standing committees, will meet during the summer. Each member will hold his or her own office hours.
"Senate is working on a number of programs that we hope to implement for the good of the student population," said Kevin Yoder, student body president. "These ideas reflect the interests of the students and the areas they would like to see improvements made."
Student Senate is focusing on the construction of a new recreation facility. Yoder said the University hoped to build a center that would better fit student needs. During spring semester, Robinson Gymnasium building hours were 6 to 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. to midnight Monday through Thursday, with fewer hours on Friday and Saturday. The building's limited availability for non-class-related use is associated with the increased number of classes that meet in Robinson.
Senate also plans to create a Student Senate outreach program. The new program would allow Senate members to volunteer with community organizations and to encourage other students to get involved in Senate activities. Student Senate members serve breakfast to the homeless Tuesday mornings at the Jubilee Cafe, 1000 Kentucky St.
Yoder said that his experience with the program had been rewarding for himself and for Senate volunteers.
"I think that working together, both for the University and in the community, has really drawn the members of Senate together," Yoder said. "I think that the program is a great experience for anyone

who is willing to donate their time for a worthy cause."
Senate also is working to expand the Saferide program for fall. New cars will be added on Friday and Saturday evenings during the regular school year. Senate also is working to set up a designated-driver program to reduce alcohol-related accidents. Student Senate hopes to offer Saferide in future summers as well.
"The better that we make the Saferide system, the more people will use it," said Nicole Skalla, transportation coordinator for KU on Wheels. "The program is available so that students who have been drinking can get a safe ride home, and with the addition of more Saferide cars, the program will be more efficient."
The Park-and-Ride program also will be instituted this fall. The program will allow students with cars to drive to school, park in the Lied Center parking lot and board a campus bus. The Park-and-Ride permit includes a parking sticker worth $75 and an annual bus pass worth $110. The permit can be purchased for $120.
Students who are interested in volunteering their time to assist community organizations such as Jubilee Cafe are invited to stop by the Student Senate office, 400 Kansas Union.

University alumna pays for old fines
State finds parking offender
By Liz Wriston
Kansas staff writer

Kansan staff writer
Unpaid parking fines can catch up with anyone.
That is what Stephanie Neiger, a
1990 KU graduate, discovered when
she received her income tax refund
this year with a $30 deduction.
Neiger, an Olathe resident, called the Department of Revenue to find out the reason for the deduction. She learned that while she was a student at the University, she racked up two parking tickets, each worth $15. The fines were not paid until this month.
"I learned that parking fines are something a person can never run from," said Neiger. "It's been eight years since I was a student at KU. I didn't realize that those fines even existed until I received the deduction. I'm glad that they are finally paid off."
Neiger said she received a notice in the mail about the fines, but it was unclear where they originated.
The notice came from the State of Kansas. If students have graduated from the University without paying their fines, and the University has not been able to locate the student for three years, the Parking Department writes off the fines. The fine information is turned in to the state, and the department receives reimbursement for the fines.
That is what happened in Neiger's situation.
"The Parking Department makes many attempts to get students to pay off their fines before they graduate," said Donna Hultine, assistant director of the Parking Department. "However, in some cases, students are
unaware of the existing fines, and they graduate without paying off their debts."
Hultine said that the University attempts to get students to pay their fines before graduating. Students with unpaid fines have their diplomas held until their fines are paid. Continuing students may not enroll in classes until existing debts are paid.
Regardless, Neiger passed through these barriers without paying.
"I graduated in January, and my diploma was sent to me in the mail," Neiger said. "I think that might be part of the reason that I didn't know about the fines. I wasn't given any notice about them."
Hultine said that the University has cracked down on the non-payment of parking fines. Students' records will be checked for fines before they graduate or enroll in classes. The crackdown has lessened the number of instances like Neiger's.
When the fines are turned in to the state, the state attempts to match up the fines with the owner's social security number. Money may be taken out of the owner's tax refund, or in some cases, it may be taken out of a person's income check or bank account.
Neiger said that she thought the state matched up her social security number with the fines because she was self-employed and paid taxes on her business. She said that she was surprised that the University had not matched her name with the fines earlier because she has been a member of the University of Kansas Alumni Association since she graduated.
Neiger said this had been a learning experience for her.
"I learned that it's important for students to learn whether they have any unaccounted debts that they need to pay off," Neiger said. "If I had known that I had the fines, I would have paid them off when I graduated."

Sunflower Games success relies on athletes, volunteers
By Clint Hooker
Kansan staff writer
Thousands of amateur athletes will descend on Lawrence July 17-19 and July 24-26 to participate in the 1998 Sunflower State Games.
The games, in the eighth year, consist of 33 sporting events including basketball, soccer, frisbee and golf. Gold, silver and bronze medals are awarded to the top finishers in each event.
Richard Konzem, University of Kansas associate athletic director, is a current board member and past president of the games.
He said that Kansas residents of all ages could participate in the games, including students enrolled at Kansas' universities. Participants in last year's games ranged from age 7 to 70.
Last year, more than 8,000 amateur athletes participated in the games. Konzem said he hoped that about 10,000 competitors would take part this year.
To conduct the games, offi
cials rely heavily on volunteers from Lawrence.
Kelly Mason, executive director of the games, said that more than 400 people volunteered last year and that the anticipated increase in the number of competitors could require at least 500 volunteers this year.
Volunteers can perform a variety of tasks including answering phones, registering athletes and helping with individual sporting events.
"If they have
an interest, a sport that they u like to work or something specifically that they'd like to do, we try to accommodate them," Mason said. "We have 33 different sports, so there's obviously plenty of opportunity."

Volunteers can work part time or full-time. Every volunteer will receive a free T-shirt, and food will be provided to

"Lawrence has just been great, in my experience, with supporting the Games as far as volunteerism and the facilities we use," Mason said.
Several events will be held at the University in Allen Field
House, Robinson Center and the Shenk Complex. Track and Field events will be held at Baker University because Memorial Stadium is closed for renovations.
The combination of outstanding community support and excellent facilities for the games has brought them back to Lawrence every year. Konzem said that the board voted recently to hold the games here for three more years.
Deadlines to register for sporting events vary by sport.
"If they have an interest, a sport that they'd like to work or something specifically that they'd like to do, we try to accommodate them. We have 33 different sports, so there's obviously plenty of opportunity."

although most are open through the first week of July. Some sports allow late entries for an additional charge. Entry fees differ for each event.

City rezones east Lawrence Journal-World buys property
City Commission Briefs
Last night the Lawrence City Commission voted to initiate the rezoning of a four-block area in far east Lawrence.
Michael Almond, representing Brookcreek Neighborhood, presented the commission with a request letter and a petition signed by the majority of the property owners wishing to change from multi-family zoning to single-family zoning. This could halt apartment complex construction. The motion was passed four to zero.
All area residents in the fourblock zone will have the opportunity to express
City Commission
their concerns at a planning commission public hearing in August before rezoning begins.
The commission also sold the city property at West Sixth St. and Wakarusa Drive to the World Company.
Notice of the receipt of bids for the sale were published in The Lawrence Journal-World on June 2, 1998. Two bids were received and opened at 2 p.m. on June 11. The property had been appraised at $285,000.
Dolph C. Simmons, Jr., editor and publisher of The Lawrence Journal-World, won the bid on behalf of the World Company with the highest offer of $450.000.
Simmons has announced the World Company's intentions to acquire the adjoining Skankard and the Rock Chalk Ranch properties. Along with office and sales operations of the JournalWorld, the World Company plans to house Sunflower Cablevision and a commercial community facility for telecommunications and teleconferencing.
GSP-Corbin open for women and men
By Joyce Newman Konson staff writer
Kansan staff writer
Spending the summer in Lawrence causes some students to adjust to more than an intense homework load and emptier bars.
The traditionally all-female residence hall, Gertrude Sellars Pearson Hall, has turned over a new leaf by opening its doors to male residents for the summer.
Fred McElhenie, director of residence life, said with Lewis Hall closed for renovation, GSP was the only residence hall open to KU students. About 110 students are living in the hall this summer.
Along with Ekdahi Dining Commons on Daisy Hill, the GSP-Corbin cafeteria also has remained open to serve the needs of students.
Jeff Halloran, Topeka senior and GSP resident assistant, said the hall was divided by placing female residents in the east wing and male residents in the west wing.
All rules that applied to residence hall life during the regular school year are in effect, Halloran said. Security monitors and desk assistants are working in the hall to ensure safety and provide assistance.
Whether students are taking summer school for one session or two, GSP-Corbin is open to all students.
"I expect people to live in apartments, but it's less of a hassle to live with us," he said.
Halloran said one advantage of summer hall living was the atmosphere, which tends to be quieter than in the fall or spring semesters.
"There is a different variety of people and age groups living in the hall during the summer," he said. "The quietness can be attributed to students who are typically more serious about their education and studying when compared to the students during the year."
Another hall open during the summer is Grace Pearson Scholarship Hall. This is the first summer that the hall has been open to students. Accommodating both female and male students, Grace Pearson is housing 34 students.
101
"The residence halls provide the opportunities and advantages of residential life including meals, people to socialize with, along with access to computers and the Internet," McEhenie said. "It just seems unnatural to me to live anywhere else."

Students win research grants
Undergraduates each receive $1,000 to work on projects
By Julie Sachs
Kansan staff writer
Fifty-six undergraduate students are $1,000 wealthier this summer because they were curious.
They were curious about finding the answers to their deepest questions.
This year more than 100 people applied for the research awards.
But there is a catch.
The students won Undergraduate Research Awards. The students, who are all enrolled in the Honors Program, are encouraged to use their winnings for research.
Josh Stewart Campbell, Lakin junior, was one of the winners. Campbell is researching playas, which are little lakes that fill up after rainstorms. He is investigating how and when playas are
formed.
"I am trying to create a prediction model for finding archaeological remains in the playas," he said.
Campbell said that the majority of his money would be spent on renting a backhoe. Some of the money will go toward lodging, gas and other items.
Todd Hershberger, Lawrence junior, received his award for

Applicants also must include a letters of recommendation, which usually comes from sponsors who will oversee their research, Schowen said.

money will go for living expenses."
Although the winners are busy spending their prize money now, the road to winning the prize money was long.
Applicants must submit a proposal that includes the significance of their research, its feasibility, a clear description of what will be
taken classes that would help them complete their proposal."
There are 56 prizes awarded. Funding for the prizes is taken out of three special funds made available by the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, the provost's office and the University's General Research Fund, Schowen said.
Rubella outbreak in packing plants is reported
Health department says widespread threat is unlikely
The Associated Press
LIBERAL — Twenty-seven cases of highly contagious German measles have been confirmed at Kansas meatpacking plants in the past six weeks, and the Kansas Department of Health and Environment says that number is still rising.
"The possibility of anything widespread or out of control is pretty remote," Brown said. "There are people who aren't protected, and it is passing from person to person, so we will continue following it until it is stopped."
The outbreak started in Dodge City in early May, and cases have since been reported in Ford, Finney, Cowley, Sedgwick and Gray counties, said Don Brown, representative of the Kansas Department of Health and Environment.
Among communicable diseases, the symptoms from German measles are
fairly mild, Brown said. The major concern is the risk the virus poses to pregnant women and its potential for causing birth defects, he said.
Most Americans were immunized as children against the airborne virus, known as rubella, but about 10 percent of the population, particularly older adults and Mexican immigrants, are unprotected and at risk. Brown said.
and southwest Kansas to help prevent the spread, and immunization clinics have been set up at several meat packing plants. Brown said.
Rubella is passed through human contact the way a common cold virus is
"It's definitely controllable," Brown said. "We got a very early jump on it." Eight thousand doses of rubella vaccine have been sent to south central

passed, he said.
It is not spread through food.
The meat packing plants have seen so many cases because the plants have a high number of Hispanic workers, and they often have several members of the family working at one plant. Brown said.
reported cases, those who contracted the virus were members of the same family, worked with one another or carpooled to work, Brown said.
"We in no way want to paint this as

specific to those employees in the meat packing industry," he said.
For a period of time in Mexico, the measles vaccination given didn't include rubella as the measles-mumps-rubella vaccine used in the United States does, the state health department said.
The symptoms of German measles include rashes, slight fever and swollen glands. It typically takes 12 to 23 days for the symptoms to appear.
The first cases were reported among six workers and one family member at Dodge City's Excel Corp. plant on May 6. State health officials set up immunization clinics the following day.
Immunization clinics have since been held at three other meat packing plants where the employees were affected by the virus or where employers were concerned about the possible spread.
The latest immunizations are being conducted Thursday and Friday at the National Beef plant in Liberal. Brown said there had been no confirmed cases of German measles at the plant.
Treacherous turns and crowded streets prompt new signals
my Clint Hooker
Kansan staff writer
A pair of Lawrence intersections will receive face-lifts this summer as the Kansas Department of Transportation attempts to alleviate congestion on city streets.
Stan Whitley, information director for
DOWNTOWN
LAWRENCE
ESTABLISHED 1854
KDOT, said improvements would be made to intersections at 23rd Street and Naismith Drive and 14th and Massachusetts streets.
The improvements will upgrade existing traffic signals to include new
green arrow lights for left-turn-only lanes. The current system requires motorists to yield to oncoming traffic when turning left.
An increase in the volume of traffic at both locations and the difficulty of left turns prompted the improvements.
Mike Effertz, Leawood junior, delivers food for Mojo's and said that traffic conditions in Lawrence were in dire need of improvement.
"Traffic's pretty bad because of all the stoplights and all the one-way streets," Effertz said. "It pretty much makes it confusing for people who aren't familiar with Lawrence."
While these improvements are designed to allow traffic to flow more smoothly, Effertz does not think green arrows are the cure.
"Massachusetts will always be a mess with all those shops," he said. "Twenty-third's ridiculous, too. They shouldn't have that many stoplights."
Wildcat Concrete Services of Topeka will complete the improvements at 23rd Street and Naismith Drive for approximately $104,000.
A contract for the 14th and Massachusetts streets improvements, estimated to cost $87.000, will be awarded later this month.
No start date has been set for either project, but Whitley said both would be completed quickly.
"it's not going to take very long as far as disrupting traffic," he said. "There won't be any detours at all."

Recent nuclear testing sparks differing opinions
The day after Pakistan tested five nuclear devices last month, U.S. media headlines read "Pakistanis jubilant over nuclear testing" and "Pakistani parade in streets." These headlines implied that the Pakistani masses were senseless warmongers and puppets of the government.
Obviously that is not true. But in an impatient society where readers skim news stories, many Americans did not grasp the valid reasons behind these irrational-seeming nuclear tests. Once again, brief sound bytes of U.S. government reactions and potent images of fervent Pakistanis dominated the layman's opinion of this "international crisis."
I often rely on the U.S. media for
the analysis of international affairs. Thoughtlessly disregarding bias and political manipulation, I automatically assume that the U.S. stance is the correct one. In reality, we often apply double standards in our criticism of other nations.
Nadia Mustafa
In the midst of the nuclear hurrah, I received e-mails from friends in America that read "Have fun with your nukes" and asked "How does it feel to be in the country where the apocalypse will begin?" These were obviously jokes, but they revealed an average American college student's assumption that the Indian and Pakistani governments were playing with nuclear toys with the consent of their own people.
Contrary to popular belief, the
two countries were not randomly detonating nuclear weapons. This is where the void in thought between the average American and average Pakistani is apparent. Regardless of who is right, most Americans do not seem to understand the reasoning behind risking a nuclear arms race in South Asia.
There is little U.S. media coverage of Pakistani opinion, and what filters through gets overshadowed by the commentary of President Clinton and Secretary of State Madeleine Albright. We are not exposed to the motivation behind the iubilance in Pakistan.
Young and old Pakistanis alike agreed with the decision to test nuclear devices. But the consensus did not stem from a desire for regional unrest or the notion of nuclear prowess as a panacea for the country's problems. Instead, it was representative of a display of integrity and self-defense against India's security threats and historical U.S. imperialism.
Pakistani Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif's decision was not a blatant disregard of U.S. advice, but it was an inevitable reaction to serious political and military threats. Ultimately, Clinton experienced a hushed international humiliation because of diminishing U.S. influence.
A CNN analyst hit the nail on the head when stating that the United States was the first country to drop an atomic bomb and progressed beyond the need to test nuclear devices and asked the rest of the world to halt nuclear development.
It is amazing that millions of Pakistanis lack basic amenities yet are eager to buckle down in the face of economic sanctions, accepting the suspension of their rights under a state of emergency. That is loyalty

and national pride.
So we again arrive at the basic question: Why is there such a gap between Western and Eastern thought? The most obvious answer seems to be the substantial difference in development and political and economic power. And when an outside group threatens that power, we tend to do things such as brand Pakistani nuclear power part of the "Islamic bomb." Yet nothing was said of a "Hindu bomb" after India's recent tests.
Pakistanis understand the grave implications of an Indonesian/Pakistani nuclear conflict and acted accordingly. But many Americans, bombarded with U.S. political reaction and headlines, believe the tests were rash and senseless. I might have assumed the same if I were in America during the testing. But I escaped the media hype by viewing firsthand the striking difference between Pakistani and American impressions. After all, what good is freedom of the press and freedom of thought if we don't raise questions.
Mustafa is a sophomore in pre-journalism.

The pieces selected include a 7 feet by 15 feet paper kite hung from the ceiling by Tal Streeter, a 1956 KU graduate, and a nature-based piece by Alan Sonfist, displayed on the floor.
Sonfist's, "Landscape of the Earth of the White Oak" from 1969, depicts the space of natural surroundings. It was made by laying canvas on a forest floor and, using dark resin, rubbing the ground's map-like impression onto the canvas.
and then spraying the image with hot tar onto a field in upstate New York.

The emphasis on big art gives the show an unusual quality and should appeal to a general audience, from adults to children, said Sally Hayden, the museum's publicist.

Arts Center reviews building designs
Lawrence citizens weary of the typical box shape of new buildings may be pleasantly surprised by the Lawrence Arts Center addition.
By Jonny Oakson
Kansan staff writer
Yesterday morning, David Dunfield, and other associates from Glenn Livingood Penzler Architects, presented three unconventional schematic designs to the 10-member Lawrence Arts Center Study Committee. The sketches, along with three-dimensional models, showed inventive plans for adding a preschool, outdoor classroom, education wing, galleries, administrative offices
and, most importantly, a performance hall to the Carnegie Building at 200 W. Ninth St.
"I like the idea of having the hall look strikingly different than the Carnegie," said John Nalbandian, Lawrence City Commissioner. "Through the architecture, we can convey that it is more than a building. It's an art center."
The cost of the additions is currently $5.8 million, said Ann Evans, director of the center. The city has agreed to pay $3.5 million. The art center plans to raise the rest.
Evans said that she, along with staff and board members, already had raised $1.5 million.
Committee members agreed
that the Carnegie Building must be preserved. Two of the three designs designated the Carnegie Building's current entrance off Ninth Street as the main entrance to the new center.
Dunfield said that maintaining the Carnegie entrance was not only safe and efficient but also important to the community as a symbol of the city.
With either a 300 or 400 seat capacity, the theater will be much larger. It will be similar in size to Swarthout Recital Hall in Murphy Hall or Alderson Auditorium in the Kansas Union.
"With larger productions and larger audiences, we get larger revenues to finance more productions. It's one big circle,"
Evans said.
Although the drawings are on the table, the committee and the Arts Center Advisory Board are far from breaking ground. Evans said that while a time frame for the expansion had not been announced, in two or three months the board and committee members should know when the project will be completed.
The committee has decided to focus on only two of the designs and continue to develop ideas to make them work. During the next two weeks, the architects plan to work on refinements and structural changes with the goal of presenting the schematic designs to the advisory board and art center staff on June 30.

Center offers ways to cope with summer class stresses
Kansan staff writer
By Darrin Peschko
Students who are overwhelmed by summer classes can find tutoring services and academic advice at the Student Development Center.
Located in 22 Strong Hall, the center offers free services to students experiencing academic or personal problems.
One of those services is tutoring, which can be beneficial to those who need help with coursework.
The center offers two tutoring options. The first is a campus-wide

tutor resource book in which tutors advertise their services. Students can browse through the book to locate a tutor that meets their specific needs Mary Ann Rasnak, director of the Student Development Center, said that fewer tutors were available in the summer but that some still offered their services.
TIPS
Set priorities and understand time commitments.
Be aware of the fast pace of courses Don't put homework off
■ Block off time
every day to study.
■ Study early in
the morning.
■ Go to class
every day.
■ Don't be afraid
to approach faculty
for help.
"We also encourage students to go to their department office," Rasnak said. "Often they can find talented graduate and undergraduate students who are able to tutor."
A second option for students is one-one consultation with a staff member. Depending on the amount of information the student provides, the staff member can offer academic advice.
Because the summer semester is shorter and more intense, students can easily become overwhelmed by the rapid pace of courses. Nasnak said.
"The upside to summer school is that you can complete a whole course in one month, but it essentially requires work and persistence. There is no room for procrastination."
Associate Director Marshall Jackson said it was especially important for students to keep pace with summer coursework.
"Missing one day of class in the summer is the same as missing one or two days of class in the regular semester," Jackson said.
Problems also can arise when students try to balance school, work and leisure activities. Jackson said that students should set a daily study time, preferably early in the morning when energy is high and distractions are few.
The Student Development Center is open every day from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. Students are welcome on a walk-in basis but may need to make an appointment. For more information about services offered by the center, call 864-4064.
Parents need patience and a little luck to place their children in Hilltop's Center, and it is all because of...
OVERCROWDING
MINKIE
By Jennifer Roush Special to the Kansan
Stacy Robarle was delighted when her daughter was accepted into the Hilltop Child Development Center in the fall of 1997. She also was delighted to be off Hilltop's waiting list.
Robarge, University of Kansas graduate, had placed Hana's name on the list when she was 18 months old, but there was no room for her at Hilltop until after her third birthday.
Daycare has always been at a premium in Lawrence,but placement at KU's Hilltop center is difficult compared to most centers. It is the first choice for many students and faculty. Obtaining one of the coveted slots in the center takes patience, timing and often luck.
Currently, Hilltop, located behind Smith Hall, serves between 150 and 160 children, with 200 more on a waiting list. The list gets longer every day.
Pat Pisani, program director for Hilltop, said that her office received between three and five calls every day from people who wanted to know if their children were eligible to attend Hilltop. The center also receives between three and five applications every week from people whose children are eligible for care at Hilltop.
The demand for available slots will only increase when the center moves to its new location near Stouffer Place apartments at the end of the fall semester of 1999. Pisani said.
"We have huge demand right now, where we have a great program and a less than ideal little building. With the new facility, we're going to have a great program and a great building," she said.
That reputation for high quality child care has, to some extent, been a mixed blessing for Hilltop. In 1987, it was accredited by the National Association for the Education of Young Children. In
fact, so many families in Lawrence have been attracted to its reputation that as of the spring 1997 semester, Hilltop no longer accepted applications from families who had no current affiliation with the University.
Phil Wedge, English lecturer, wanted his youngest son to go to Hilltop because of the quality of care. He said that he and his wife waited for two
years to get their son Roy into the center. Roy is now in kindergarten, and his 19-month-old brother George has been on the waiting list for 16 months even though siblings of enrolled children get priority.
Wedge said that Hilltop deserved the reputation it has.
"Roy was better prepared socially and intellectually than his peers when he got to kindergarten because of Hilltop," he said.
was so hard to completely fill spots with part-time students, and the largest demand was for full-day care.
Stan Loeb also is in for a long wait. Loeb, acting director of the environmental studies program, put his two youngest children on the list when they were three months old. Loeb isn't waiting for just one slot. He needs two, because his youngest children are twins.

Nina Limesand's youngest daughter, Claire, 3 1/2, has been on the waiting list for 2 1/2 years, longer than the average, two-year wait. Limesand blames that in part on Hilltop's bias toward children who need full-time, five-day-a-week care.
Hilltop called Limesand and informed
"We've got lots of people on the list, and it's just going to get longer once we get into our new building."
her of an available slot when Claire was just one year old. However, that slot was full-time with no option for any other arrangements. Limesand turned it down and went back to the bottom of the list. She did not want to leave such a young child in the care of strangers full time, she said, especially when it wasn't necessary to her schedule.
Pisani said that Hilltop's bias toward full-time care existed only because it

"It's harder to get them into a center, because the twins are a package deal," Loeb said.
Even though Loeb and his wife have a baby-sitter who cares for the twins in their home, they remain on waiting lists with nearly every center in town.
The solution to Hill-
top's ever-expanding waiting list is extra space. That space won't be free, though. The second phase of construction on Hilltop's new center would cost $1.2 million, but Pisani doesn't foresee that happening any time soon.
"If we could get Phase II of the new building approved, we could probably just eliminate the current waiting list," Robarge said. "The increase in space would just take care of all of it at once."
Couple finds positions in same department
University hires new professors for next year

In academia, Ruth Ann and Paul Atchely are a rare commodity: a two-professor couple able to work at the

"A senior colleague that I talked with at a recent conference said that he'd never heard of it happen ing

before," said Paul Atchely, who, along with his wife Ruth Ann, was recently hired as an assistant professor of psychology at the University of Kansas.
The Atchleys are two of 23 confirmed College of Liberal Arts and Sciences faculty that have been hired for the upcom
ing academic year, according to a list provided by the college. All of the new faculty hold doctorates, many from institutions such as Harvard and the University of California at Berkeley.
Sally Frost Mason, dean of the college, said that she was pleased with the new crop of faculty because of their high qualifications. She said the new faculty reflected the University's ability to attract highly qualified professors.
That was the case with the Atchelys. Paul Atchely said that they chose the University despite offers from Colorado State University and the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, where they currently are finishing post-doctoral fellowships. He said they felt that when the University offered both of them tenured-track positions, it was a sign that high-quality faculty were desired and appreciated.
"We compete with all the other major universities," Frost Mason said. "And most of the people that we interview for jobs have multiple offers from other universities. So they actively choose to come here."
He said that the opportunities for pursuing his research on aging and the opportunity for his wife to work with top
people in her field of language and neuroscience, were keys to their decision. There were other factors, such as the city of Lawrence.
There were other factors, such as the city of Lawrence.
"I'm a native Californian, and I was really surprised," Atchely said. "We really liked Lawrence."
Frost Mason said that Lawrence often made the University an easy sell to new faculty but that the University has problems retaining faculty. Other universities, such as the universities of Michigan and Nebraska, are able to offer better raises to retain their faculty and hire away from other institutions, Frost Mason said.
"In terms of retention, we've got to improve the faculty salary structure," Frost Mason said.
The Atchelys plan to move to Lawrence in mid-July. All of the faculty on the list begin their employment on August 18, said Erin Spiridigliozzi, assistant dean of the college.
Spirigidlozzi said that there were one or two offers still unconfirmed and that those individuals may have to begin their employment in January.
The college typically hires about 30 new faculty a year, but the number fluctuates depending upon the college's needs and budgetary restraints, Spiridiglozzi said.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (June 17).
Investments now could make your future secure. May and June are good for weddings and honeymones. In July, you could have a difficult assignment. The key is to cut costs. Extra attention heals a romantic hurt in August. Offer a special gift, too.
Aries (March 21-April 19).
Get your team to stop arguing and work together. They may never agree completely, so don't wait for that to happen. In romance, you hold lots of aces. Don't get too pushy, or you'll lose your advantage. Your sweetheart needs compassion.
Taurus (April 20-May 20).
Although somebody smart might tell you to act, it's wise to go over your options once more. An older person's advice may be less fashionable but more appropriate. A visit with a favorite relative would make good sense tonight.
If you're getting bored, call a long distance friend today. Your friend could motivate you to plan something outrageous, such as a trip across the country! If you want something for home, get the higher quality item. Even if it costs more, you'll save eventually.
Cancer (June 22-July 22).
If you can get your plans worked out this morning, you should be in good shape to move this afternoon. Hold back your secret weapon, or your secret recipe, until the last minute. Sell something you don't like and get an item you need.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22).
Before you get too excited about a new idea, figure out the cost. A toy that will cut your entertainment expenses could be a good investment. Ask knowledgeable friends before you purchase. Also, pay a bill.
Virgo [Aug. 23-Sept. 22].
Concentrate on your job today, especially the part you don't have memorized yet. There could be a few surprises. Your love life should be going well, though. Focus on your dreams and the troubles of the present will dim.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).
Scorpio (Oct. 24.-Nov. 21).
If you want something nice for your home, work later Not to worry, this is temporary. Sacrifice your time now so you can have the money later. A sensitive co-c worker can teach you a valuable lesson about love.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
If you're thinking of a major purchase, read up on the products first. Don't take a risk with family money. Talk to a sibling tonight who may help you use your old skills to improve your income.
You may throw away something valuable. Keep the good parts. Changes should be made at home.
Unfortunately, the one who changes most may be you! Call an old friend tonight and set up a time to meet again.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
A new machine or procedure could make money for you. Figure out how. If you lack experience, you may have to hire an expert. Your best friend may be in a blue mood. Do something extra nice tonight.
Today, figure out how to bring more money into your account. Ask an imaginative but quiet person for ideas if you run out of them. Don't spread work-related gossip, but do pay attention. Some of it could affect your next assignment.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20).
---
If you're feeling pressured at work, take a break! Talk to friends you can trust. In love, hold out for what you want. You're in a stronger position than you think. Don't get talked into anything until you're ready.

Suppose your volleyball class heads to the beach for a game, and when you get there everyone, men and women alike, begins changing clothes right there on the beach.
This scenario seems like it might only exist in a strange dream, but for Sarah Hansen, Sioux Falls, S.D., junior, it was reality, Hansen, like many other students, studied abroad for the cultural experience.
"You have to do what they do," she said. "I couldn't just throw a fit because I didn't want to change on the beach, so I just stripped down on the beach, too."
Hansen spent 11 months in Denmark after her senior year in high school and said that situations such as the one on the beach were common. The society and the school system were more liberal than what she was used to.
"I was more mature and had more of an open mind and broader outlook after I came home," she said. "I saw the way society functions in different places and realized that not everybody does things your way."
Each year, more students travel abroad. According to the Institute of International Education, a nonprofit international exchange and training organization, 89,242 students studied abroad during the 1995-96 school year. The number of students was 84,403 the previous year. Margareta B. O'Connell, director of the Office of Study Abroad, said she had seen the increase.
"It has to do with several things," she said. "The economy is very good right now and more people feel they can afford the extra cost of study abroad. Times are also right when there aren't any wars and things are more or less calm in the world."
O'Connell said the office has hired an outreach coordinator to reach as many students as possible. Students who might want to travel abroad are encouraged to visit the office early to find out
"It was hard at first. You can't really prepare yourself for the shock that this is where you will live, and it isn't just a trip."
Sarah Hansen
Sioux Falls, S.D., junior
what opportunities are available. If students plan ahead, going abroad should not extend their stay at the University of Kansas, she said.
"We have so many programs that one will fit just about anybody," O'Connell said. "What you take away is not just an increased knowledge in certain subjects but an increased understanding of the world and humanity. An increased awareness and sensitivity for other cultures is very important because whether you work abroad or at home, you will come in contact with people from a lot of cultures."
John Stewart, Lee Summit, Mo., senior, spent last summer in Brazil and currently is studying in Argentina. Stewart wrote by email that he had gained more than an appreciation for different cultures while abroad.
"After being out of the states twice, I've found that I'm getting a deeper appreciation for my own country. I felt compelled to travel
in order to find out what I'm missing and what I'm not missing," he wrote. "I do miss milk shakes and big well-maintained American highways and my friends."
Loneliness and homesickness are common feelings that many students experience. Hansen said she was depressed during the beginning of her stay but eventually learned to forget little mistakes and enjoy new things.
"It was hard at first. You can't really prepare yourself for the shock that this is where you will live, and it isn't just a trip," Hansen said. "You just have to take what comes at you day by day."
O'Connell said extensive orientations and meetings prepare students thoroughly for what to expect. Advisers also are on location and people from the office are available to help with problems. An answering machine during non-business hours even supplies advisers' home phone numbers.
Stewart said he knew what to expect and did not feel homesick. He mentioned a quote by Antoine de Saint-Exupery: "If you are lonely when you're alone, you're in poor company."
"The key to not being homesick is to not take so many memories with you as extra baggage," he wrote. "They'll be there whenever you want them, but you are traveling to experience something other than what your memories provide."

Bomb threat forces loan firm evacuation
By Joyce Newman
Kansan staff writer
The call was placed through the company's 1-800 line and answered at the Killeen, Texas, branch office in the late afternoon. All recipients of Sallie Mae student loans have access to the number, which can reach any branch office depending on who responds.
Sallie Mae employees got an unexpected day off, June 10, when the building was evacuated because of a bomb threat.
Sallie Mae is a Student Loan Marketing Association located off of Second Street at 2000 Bluffs Drive. The corporation purchases loans from originating lenders. It provides banks with loans that enable the banks to make student loans.
The Lawrence Police Department was contacted at the time
"Inever knew people would get so upset over paying their loans."
Heather Fletcher Student and Sallie Mae emplover
of the call and was on site at the time of the report. The caller did not give any details.
Sgt. Rick Nichols said that the caller did not specify which Sallie Mae office building was the intended target or give an approximate time. As a result, all offices were alerted and evacuated to ensure safety.
The building was cleared at 3 p.m. to allow a complete sweep of the grounds. Sallie Mae employees were allowed back to work at noon the following day.
procedures," said Elaine Nelson, vice president of Kansas operations at Sallie Mae. "Our primary concern was the safety of our employees."
Authorities are trying to trace the call and are taking measures to ensure that another threat is prevented, Nelson said. Receiving a bomb threat by phone is extremely rare, Nelson said. The last time the company received such a threat was last year.
Sallie Mae deals with more than four and a half million customers across the country, and the caller could have been anyone.
"I came into work on Thursday morning, and they sent me home," said Heather Fletcher, Wichita junior and temporary employee at Sallie Mae. "I never knew people would get so upset over paying their loans."

Fundraising is foundation for Wescoe renovations
Kansan staff writer
By Graham K. Johnson
Wescoe Hall may get a bigger cafeteria, more space for lounges and basic repairs if the University approves a renovation proposal.
Last April, a Wescoe Task Force committee submitted a renovation plan for the aging building to University administration.
The proposal is the final stage in the work of the task force, which was formed two years ago to reorganize Wescoe's department offices. The restructuring is intended to make the building more organized and livable.
Stephen Parker, chairman of the Slavic languages and literatures department, led the committee of department heads that created the renovation proposal.
Parker said it was important to create a better environment for people who worked in Wescoe.
"There are curtains that are hanging in some of these windows that have been hanging for 20 years and never been cleaned," Parker said. "In other words, a major concern is for the health of the people who have to work in this building 40
The plan would create enclosed lounges on terraces between the second and third floors on the south side of the building. Some have suggested that Wescose Terrace cafeteria be extended outward to make it capable of serving more people, Parker said.
Parker said the No.1 priority was the replacement of the heating and air-conditioning system, which does not circulate air adequately.
Another major goal was to create more space for faculty and staff lounges, Parker said.
Anthony Genova, chairman of the philosophy department, said that the lounges were an important part of the proposal because there was no space set aside for that purpose.
Parker said he often had to bring his lunch from the packed cafeteria back to his office because the only other place to eat was the hallway.
hours or more."
Sally Frost Mason, dean of liberal arts and sciences, said that she was pleased with the plans and had approved them for the next stage of the process: design and fundraising.
"The idea is to see what we can come up with by way of plans and then see how much money
we can raise to make this thing happen, " Frost Mason said.
Some money from the crumbling classrooms appropriation would be available, but most of the funding would have to be raised from donations and the Legislature, she said.
Tom Waechter, planning coordinator with design and construction management, said the plans were feasible, but that any major changes or moves would not take place until the completion of Joseph R. Pearson Hall renovations in 2000.
The School of Education is scheduled to move into Pearson upon completion, freeing up space in Bailey Hall for departments moving out of Wescoe. The foreign language, history, English, philosophy, and humanities and western civilization departments will remain in Wescoe.
Parker said the committee's goal was to determine how to utilize the new space for the remaining departments. The committee decided to centralize most of the departmental offices along the south side of the building to share resources and to give the staff access to windows.
Allergies cover up in colds
By Loslie Patter
Kansan staff writer
Many times allergies disguise themselves as the common cold. Blake Woolbright, Pittsburg sophomore, had a stuffed-up nose, sore throat and a cough. He thought he had a cold.
"I went to Watkins, and they told me my symptoms were due to allergies," Woolbright said.
An allergy is the body's response to substances in the environment called allergens, said Randall Rock, chief of staff at Watkins Memorial Health Center. This time of year, allergies are caused by pollen, dust, mold and blooming trees, he said.
"An allergy can cause an inflammation of the respiratory tract." Rock said. "The respiratory n.echanisms that are stimulated by allergies are similar to the ones stimulated by a cold, so the symptoms of an allergy and a cold can be similar."
According to the Association for Ambulatory Health Care, allergic rhinitis is the medical term for an allergy that effects the mucous membrane of the nose. Common symptoms are a stuffed-up nose, sneezing, itchy eyes and throat, coughing, sinus headache and fatigue.
"There are many over the counter medications for allergies," Rock said. "Also, try to avoid what you are allergic to when you can, and keep the windows closed and let the air conditioning filter the air."
Rock said that the inflammation of the respiratory tract increases the
chance of developing a sinus infection. An infection results when bacteria invades the sinus membranes that have swollen because of allergies.
Treatments do exist.
Rock encouraged students who suffer from allergies to see a physician.
Watkins has an allergy clinic for students who periodically need allergy shots. Students must call 864-9507 to make an appointment.

Camps fund housing
Conferences pack students in residence halls
By Kristi Hartley Kansas staff writer

The Department of Student Housing has found a way for the University of Kansas to attract new students and make money.

The University brings between 124 and 130 summer conferences to its residence halls each summer. On average, 10,000 people are on campus attending classes, sports clinics or student orientations, said Randy Timm, assistant director of the Department of Student Housing.
For many years, the University lost money on the conferences.
Last year, summer conferences and regular students living in residence halls brought $1.1 million to the University during a three-month period, Timm said.
In the past, most conferences were organizational conventions. Now they have an educational purpose, said Sharon Rankin, program manager of Academic/Professional Programs for the Office of Continuing Education.
"I think it's important for the University to provide this opportunity for young people to be on campus." Rankin said.
Midwest Music Camp is the largest summer conference held at the University with about 830 participants. The conference has three sessions for junior high and high school students and will run through July 11. Students participating in the first session moved into Hashinger Hall Sunday.
"It's one of the major events for us for the year." Timm said.
Students can take advantage of working with a nationally-known composer, Jim Barnes, or director, Robert Foster.
"This is a good opportunity for them to meet some really wellknown names throughout the United States," Timm said. "It just happens that they're at KU."
"This is a great way for us to bring students to campus and say this is a great place to be. They get an actual taste of what KU is like."
Randy Timm
Assistant director of the department of Student Housing
One reason the University began holding summer conferences was to allow students and employees to remain at the University year round.
"Now we're able to offer people 12 month housing and 12 month contracts with us," Timm said. "In the past, that wasn't possible."
Summer conferences are also used for recruitment.
"This is a great way for us to bring students to campus and
say this is a great place to be," Timm said. "They get an actual taste of what KU is like."
The conferences impact the local economy as well.
When parents drop off their children, they are doing more than just dropping them off. Timm said.
"They're visiting the outlet mall. They're filling up with gas," Timm said. "It's a major thing for the town of Lawrence."

Light work earns student award
By Sarah Morgan Kansan staff writer
"This kind of thing does not escape the attention of the lighting world," said Clay Belcher, associate professor of architectural engineering. "The reputation of our lighting program is growing by leaps and bounds."
University of Kansas alumnus Dean Chandler is reaping the rewards of his senior project.
On June 5, Chandler, who graduated in May with a degree in architectural engineering, was notified that he won the Howard Brandon 1998 Student Lighting Design Education Grant for a project he created for his Senior Seminar 681 class this spring.
This is the third consecutive year and the fifth out of the last 10 years that a KU architectural engineering student has won the Brandston award.
Chandler said that he would travel to San Francisco later this summer for an awards ceremony. He also received complimentary registration for the 1998 annual conference of the Illuminating Engineering Society of North America.
"I was pretty excited about winning $1,000," Chandler said. "I'll probably use the money to pay bills."
"I was pretty excited about winning $1,000.I'll probably use the money to pay bills."
To do this, Chandler had to work with specified ceiling heights, wall and floor coverings, extensive windows and an interior passageway to a new car showroom.
For the project, Chandler had to illuminate a 9,300-foot used-car showroom addition to a luxury car dealership while retaining visibility, comfort and a sense of exclusivity.

Chandler's design, titled "A Walk in the Clouds," was intended to invoke a feeling of north and south complete with the yellowish lights of a setting sun.
"I tried to create the sense of an overcast day inside the showroom," Chandler said. "I used different color temperatures of lights and draped translucent white fabric below the lights as clouds. The fabric also changes the color of the lights."
The color temperature of the lamps becomes warmer as one looks toward the southwest. Chandler describes his design as an afternoon stroll near dusk.
Chandler said that his adviser for the project, Martin Moeck, assistant professor of architectural engineering, encouraged him to enter the contest because of Moeck's interest in computer-generated designs.
His biggest challenges in creating his design were learning the computer software, grinding through the computer problems and coping with the trial and error that went along with creating the right design.
Chandler was hired by Henderson Engineers, Inc. Lenexa, where he is an electrical engineering intern.
The design, which was one of two projects Chandler was assigned, was computer generated. Chandler said that designing on computer and using strip lamps made his design efficient and practical.
"There were a few times when I had to scratch the work I had done and start all over again." Chandler said.

Museum plans dinosaur hall to display find
Old bones need new space
By Julio Sachs
Kansan staff writer
The University of Kansas' excavation of dinosaur bones in the Black Hills has many professors at the Natural History Museum considering the possibility of opening a dinosaur hall.
"We are proposing it right now," said Leonard Krishtalka, director of the Natural History Museum.
The hall is still in the early planning stages. Kristalka said that the size, cost and location are under consideration. One possibility is building a wing that would connect Dyche and Lippincott halls.
Larry Martin, senior curator at the museum, said that the dinosaur hall would fill a need in the region. The closest comprehensive dinosaur exhibits are located in Chicago and Denver, he said.
"It gets down to money, space and desire," Martin said. "The University has to make the decision that it wants the dinosaur hall."
Even if the University does not acquire the hall, the bones being excavated in the Black Hills will become some sort of an exhibit, Martin said.
The bones creating all the excitement are believed to be those of a camerasaurus, Martin said.
T. J. Meehan, Lawrence graduate student, said that digging up the camerasaurus bones was a challenge.
"It takes a lot of patience," Meehan said. "And it takes about 50,000 to 100,000 man hours to complete."
The estimated cost to complete the excavation is about $140,000, said Brad Kemp, assistant director of public affairs to the museum.
Craig Sundell, Lawrence graduate student, crouches near some camerasaurus bones at an excavation site in the Block Hills. Sundell is one of many KU graduate students who is working to uncover the dinosaur bones. They dedicate many hours to cleaning off bones using Exacto knives and dental instruments. Contributed Photo.
Fountains that produce yellow water generate floods of student concern
By Vanossa Whitoside
Kansan staff writer
"Don't Drink the Water," the latest single by The Dave Matthews Band, could apply to several University of Kansas buildings.
As campus buildings have aged, so have the pipes that deliver water to hundreds of thirsty students via hallway water fountains. Many students are curious about the yellowish water the fountains produce.
Julie Eberle, Randolph, N.J. junior, insists on drinking local water through a Brita water filter attached to her kitchen faucet. She recently decided to have bottled water delivered to her home.
"I don't like drinking the water here because it is yellow," she said. "I've always been nervous about drinking Lawrence water."
Is the cloudy and yellowish water dangerous to the health of those students who dare to drink
Jon Rossillon, environmental specialist with the Environment, Health and Safety Council said that levels of oxidized iron were not high enough to be dangerous and that samples of incoming water, which is purchased from the city, consistently proved safe.
Rossillon offered an easy solution to dispel fear of drinking from the fountains, especially in the early morning hours or on Mondays when water has been
"Occasionally a piece of rust will break loose and pulverize itself in the old galvanized pipes and creates the sometimes yellow color of the water. It is not a health problem, though."
Mike Miller, mechanical engineering assistant director for facilities operations, said that students should not worry about campus drinking water conditions and blamed the discolored water on old plumbing.
it every day?
roubled waters
In many campus buildings, flaking rust from aging pipes is pulverized and oxidized by water moving toward drinking fountains.
Individuals may run water until it smears. If they find the sole source unblocked,
According to Environmental Health and Safety, the resulting discolored drinking water is not
sitting in pipes.
M. D. Bradshaw/KANSAN
"We advise people who call us with questions about the water to run the water from the fountain for 30 seconds to a minute to allow it to run clear before drinking it," he said.
Miller said that dozens of refurbishments were being made to
campus plumbing, some of which was more than 100 years old. Plumbing improvements are being made in Allen Field House restrooms, Memorial Stadium and the Murphy Hall addition project. Other plumbing upgrades are made on the basis of need, Rossillon said.

Movie Review
I will be here with you.
When his cargo plane is forced down in a storm, Quinn Harris (Harrison Ford) and passenger Robin Monroe (Anne Heche) find themselves stranded on an island in the South Pacific. Danger and romance ensue as the two castaways are thrown into a series of adventures in the Touchstone Pictures film "Six Days, Seven Nights." Contributed Photo
Unoriginal Days offers no escape from cliche
By Jeremy M. Doherty
Kansan movie critic
Director Ivan Reitman reportedly got cold feet after hiring Anne Heche, girlfriend of Ellen DeGeneres, to star opposite Harrison Ford in the romantic comedy Six Days, Seven Nights.
Too bad for him. Instead of worrying about whether she could pass for a heterosexual (and she can), Reitman should have been hopping mad about the script's mishmash of cliches.
But let's give the director the benefit of the doubt. Perhaps he never saw Romancing the Stone, or he would have realized that Six Days cribs its every working element (grizzled hero, neurotic heroine, exotic locale). Let's assume that he never sat through any Katharine Hepburn comedies. Otherwise, he would have known that this movie's bawdy dialogue has already been heard — albeit in tamer terms — many times before.
Aside from that, Six Days is nothing short of a masterpiece. Heche is Robin Monroe, a fast-talking career gal slaving away at a New York fashion magazine. Her beau, Frank (David Schwimmer), convinces her to drop everything for a sun-drenched week at a oceanside resort in the South Pacific. While sipping
daiquiris, the home office summons Robin for a quick photo shoot in Tahiti. Even though Frank had just popped the question, Robin books a flight on a local cargo plane. Bad weather brings the plane down onto an unsettled island. After emerging from the damaged craft, Robin asks the pilot, Quinn Harris (Harrison Ford), if he's able to fix the plane's crushed wheel.
"Sure," he snarls. "We'll just glue it back on."

SIX DAYS. SEVEN NIGHTS
Kansas Rating: ** out of ******
Running time: 1 hour, 40 minutes
Rated PG-13 for strong sexuality and related language
What begins as a sort of exotic Woody Allen comedy quickly turns into a Woody Allen adventure movie. There are some funny scenes, such as the one in which Robin fires their only flare at a palm tree or where Quinn removes a snake from her shorts with his bare hands. Yet many of these Cruseo-type shenanigans feel like a PG-13 version of the Hawaiian episode from The Brady Bunch.
If there is a reason to endure Six Days, it is the stars' good-natured performances. They appear to be enjoying themselves, and their enthusiasm nearly extends to the audience. Ford strikes an interesting note between bravado and goofiness, and Quinn comes across as a 50-something version of Han Solo. Heche also manages to make her rough-edged character sympathetic.
The biggest eyesore has to be David Schwimmer, whose annoying aw-shucks demeanor has this critic wishing he were the one trapped on a deserted island.

Feminist trio to play
KU graduates come back to Lawrence for shows
By Robocca Ulanoff Kansan staff writer
A band has aspirations of leaving town, getting signed to a record label and relocating to a thriving metropolis. It's a rock 'n' roll dream that has come true — Free Verse style.
Lawrence's Free Verse, a female trio includes Jenni Black, guitar and vocals, Tuesday Harper, guitar and vocals and M. Collier, drum and vocals.
Collier describes Free Verse as a highenergy, in-your-face, feminist, definitely political, hardcore, kind-of-punk band. Collier said that the band has grown since its humble beginnings playing house parties and participating in open-mike night at The Bottleneck, 737 New Hampshire St.
Free Verse formed in January 1995. Black had just begun playing acoustic guitar and wanted to start a band. She spread the word around Gertrude Sellards Pearson-Corbin Hall and met Tuesday Harper, who had just taken up bass guitar. By word of mouth, they met Collier, a novice drummer, and the rest is history. All three women graduated in May.
The band's outspoken nature is what initially attracted its record label, Brain Floss Records and touring band Lucid
"We don't intend to scare people. However, when some people are confronted with the issues and images we present, they tend to become threatened, nervous, even angry," the band said in a press release. "We did not create these problems, we just try to make people aware that the world isn't a nice place for many of us. People cannot claim blissful ignorance anymore."
As an all-female band, Free Verse said that they encounter a lot of gender discrimination and that they try to confront the issue through their music.
The band does benefit shows for such organizations as the Feminist Union, Pro-Choice, Children with AIDS, Food Not Bombs, National Day Against Police Brutality and Environs.
"People get caught up on whether you are male or female, rather than what type of music you play or how well you play the music," Collier said.

Nation.
Something did. Brain Floss helped Free Verse produce "Access Denied," the band's first CD.
Collier was co-host of "Beyond the Valley Of The Dolls" on KAW 88.9 FM. The show is devoted to rockin' out women's music, KU graduate Jenel Farrell, cofounder and assistant program director of the station, said. Lucid Nation, Los Angeles-based band and owners of Brain Floss, sent a tape to the radio show and Collier loved it. Collier sent Free Verse's demo to Lucid Nation hoping that something would happen.
Ronnie Hogart, vocals, guitar and bass for Lucid Nation and co-founder of Brain Floss, said he wanted to help get bands signed.
The band moved to Seattle after graduation and has been touring with Lucid Nation since.
"Free Verse knocked us out. Their point of view of abuse was exactly what we've been looking for," Hogart said. "Musically they're astounding, lyrically it's all poetry. They're talking about the kind of subjects we feel aren't discussed enough."
Free Verse will play two shows in Lawrence, tonight at the Replay Lounge, 946 Massachusetts St. and tomorrow at The Bottleneck.
Crowds ignited by Heat's music
Kansan staff writer
By Tiffany Harrington
The heat was on when The Reverend Horton Heat gave a sold-out show at The Bottleneck Saturday. The crowd was pumped and ready for the full-body slam sound of The Rev, and his crew.
has produced such artists as U2, John Lennon and Rocket from The Crypt. Panunzio was a different type of producer than the band was used to. The group's previous producers have been musicians themselves.
"We thought we'd try somebody who wasn't a rock star for once," jokes The Rev.
"I drove all the way from St. Louis to hear this show," said Max Turner. "My friends and I wouldn't have missed this for anything, not even a few hours of driving."

and modeling a fresh pair of cutoffs, vocalist/guitarist The Rev., along with bassist Jimbo and drummer Scott Churilla, took center stage and jammed out a sound that was unmistakably their own.
It's Martini Time also introduces Heat fans to new musical ground.
"Thom's just a normal guy with a wife and kid. This session was kind of calm compared to what we're used to, but that's good because we had the freedom to do our thing."
The Heat's second and latest CD It's 'Martini Time', features a wide variety of lyrics about booze, women and hard living. The CD was produced by Thom Panunzio, who
"We used horns, piano, accordion steel guitar and even sound loops," The Rev. said.
However, the Heat's new musical trail is not far from its traditional Texas country, swamp-stomp and noise sound.
"It doesn't matter what guitar you play," the Rev said. "It's what comes out of your heart."

KUID cards might not be that smart
(USPS 650-640)
Hackers may break codes that protect students' information
By Michael Martin
Kansan staff writer
Electronic smart cards, such as the new KUID, can be outsmarted by hackers using relatively unsophisticated computer software, a San Francisco consulting firm said Monday.
Cryptographic Research, a four-person firm headed by scientist Paul Kocher, has discovered a way to electronically tamper with the microchip on smart cards to determine user personal identification numbers and to manipulate digital cash.
In a statement on the company's web site, the firm said that existing smart
card systems were indefensible against the breed of electronic attacks and could not be fixed.
Hackers would need a working knowledge of computer engineering and cryptography, but not sophisticated computer equipment. Kocher said ordinary PCs with cryptographic software could collect and analyze data from smart cards and could tamper with encrypted information.
"We expect people will be replicating this," Kocher said. "I know that other labs are building technologies to implement these attacks."
The University of Kansas recently converted from traditional magnetic-strip student ID cards to smart cards, in which a microchip enables students to check out library materials, use vending machines, ride the bus and store cash in a Commerce Bank account.
The University's smart card technology was developed and manufactured by CyberMark LLC, of Tallahassee, Fla.
Officials from Commerce Bank and the University dismissed Kocher's findings as unproven.
"I would find it hard to believe they can make a blanket statement about chip cards, when every system is different," said Carl Bradbury, debit business line manager in Commerce Bank's bankcard department.
Nancy Miles, informational technology consultant and KU smart card coordinator, said she had read an article in The New York Times on Kocher's findings and that the University was not terribly concerned.
"They've said a lot of things can be done theoretically, but proving them is very different," Miles said. "We rely on the experts in this case. CyberMark has assured us that the chip is secure."

Chris Corum, director of systems marketing for CyberMark LLC, said his company is taking the findings seriously.
"No technology is impenetrable." he
said. "The case is theoretical, but that doesn't mean it's not significant."

keys at a time, affecting a single card, not an entire system.
Since the University's smart card system is "accountable," meaning that transactions are tracked, fraudulent use of a card would result in its disablement, Corum said.
Corum said that CyberMark LLC was unaware of the tampering when smart card technology was developed and that he was unsure if the University's smart cards had anti-tampering capabilities sufficient to resist the attacks.
CyberMark LLC is waiting to see if Cryptographic Research can perform an actual attack and hack into smart cards, before it recommends upgrades.
"It's more of a lesson for people in the smart card industry that we need to be aware and guard against these attacks," he said.

Winter clothes needed in campus buildings
By Graham K. Johnson Kansan staff writer
The weather outside is hot, but the temperatures inside are not.
The temperatures inside some University of Kansas buildings are too cold, even for summer, said many students, faculty and visitors.
Since the air conditioning went into high gear at the start of the summer, most buildings have become cooler, but some have become cold, particularly Wescoe Hall.
Students in Wescoe have noticed. Amanda Martin, Lenexa sophomore, who was attending an orientation for transfer students in Wescoe, said she wore jeans and a jacket because it was cold yesterday morning. She was glad once inside Wescoe.
"I am usually very warm, but I was just freezing all day," Martin said.
Sandi Zimdars-Swartz, professor of religious studies, has advised during orientation in Wescoe for years. She said the temperature was just a fact of life.
Faculty who have worked for a long time in Wescoe said the problem was not new.
"Wescoe is always cold," Zimdars-Swartz said. "I am used to the
fact that these rooms are cold."
Wescoe isn't the only building causing an outbreak of sweaters and jackets.
Natalie Willis, mother of Pete Willis, Tulsa, Okla., junior, sat in the Kansas Union during an orientation session yesterday wearing a nylon winter jacket. Willis said that she thought it could have been a little warmer.
"It seems like they could save on electricity by turning the air-conditioning down," Willis said. "Maybe that could save on our tuition more."
Mike Richardson, director of facilities operations, which oversees temperature regulation in all campus buildings, said that their policy was to try to keep the temperature of most buildings between 74 degrees and 78 degrees. But it is difficult to regulate this exactly for many reasons, Richardson said.
"There's always the need for adjustments, but we have literally thousands of thermostats across campus," he said.
Richardson said that things have been more difficult this year because he has less staff this summer. Richardson also said that air-conditioning units caused more problems and were harder to regulate than heating units because
they were more complicated.
Richardson admitted some buildings, particularly Wescoe, were harder to regulate.
"To be honest, we have enough calls in Wescoe Hall, that we have a maintenance person permanently assigned to Wescoe Hall," Richardson said.
That maintenance person is part of a building monitoring program, which the department is establishing to deal with such problems, Richardson said. The program places a crew with a shop in buildings that have high maintenance problems. Richardson said that the program has been successful and expects that the problem will be controlled eventually.
Until then many students will bring jackets to class in concern for their health as well as comfort. Some believe extreme changes in temperature lead to increased health risks.
However, William Brandenberger, physician at Watkins Memorial Health Center, said that there was more risk from the extreme heat and humidity, than from changes in temperature.
"I think that it's more of a misconception than it is in anything based in scientific fact," Brandenberger said.
KU on Wheels turns private
State obligation hurts campus bus routes
By Liz Wristen
Kansan staff writer
The privatization of KU on Wheels is planned to improve the bus system and to prevent bus pass prices from rising.
The plan is good news for Tiana Chrisman, Kansas City, Kan., senior, who said she would not purchase a bus pass if prices increased.
"I have bought a bus pass for the past four years," Chrisman said. "I won't continue to purchase one if the prices are raised."
The idea to privatize KU on Wheels was proposed because the program was losing money to the state.
KU on Wheels' funds are held in a state account at Carruth-O'Leary Hall. The interest the account earns each year goes to the state.
Some say that money could be used to improve the bus system.
The members of the privatization council are the directors of KU on Wheels, the General Council for the University of Kansas legal services, members of Student Senate and the University general administration.
"The money has a real impact on the services that we can provide," said Scott Kaiser, student body vice president. "Hopefully everyone involved in making this happen will want to play ball."
the Saferide program, and could keep bus fares from rising in the future.
The second component is an agreement between Student Senate
The privatization paperwork is divided into two main components.
The Articles of Incorporation consist of a preamble describing the purpose of the organization, which is to provide transportation and other related services to students at the University.
Kaiser said that he expected the privatization paperwork to be completed within a few months, and the actual privatization to be approved within six to nine months.
and KU on Wheels, in which KU on Wheels would be filed with the Internal Revenue Service as a not-for-profit organization. If the plan is approved, the University would have the legal authority to remove transportation funds from the state account.
"We don't want to be a public tax system," Kaiser said. "We would rather use student money for improving school programs."
The school bus system, which began in 1968, started without a required student transportation fee. In 1970, the program went bankrupt and the student fee of $16 per person was established. Today the system is stable with 18 bus routes and often has multiple buses on individual routes.
Bus pass sales in the past year have allowed the bus system to operate with a $1.2 million budget.
This money is used to pay the Lawrence Bus system, which the University contracts for the use of the buses. It also is used for bus system improvements and to fund the Saferide program.

Man arrested at home masturbating in window
A University of Kansas student witnessed a man masturbating in his apartment early Sunday morning, Lawrence police said.
The man was arrested at 1:54 a.m. on one count of indecent exposure, said Sgt. George Wheeler of the Lawrence police.
Wheeler said that even though the man was inside his apartment, in the 1900 block of West 31st Street, his activity was illegal because he could be seen through his open window.
"If it's in the public view, then it's indecent." Wheeler said.
The student told police that she first witnessed the man masturbating at 12:15 a.m., Wheeler said.

Blue Rapids couple endows scholarship in their name
Provost David Shulenburger announced Thursday that a Kansas farm couple has given $100,300 for scholarships at the University of Kansas.
William and Dorothy Hula of Blue Rapids gave securities to the Kansas University Endowment Association to endow the William J. and Dorothy L. Hula Scholarship Fund for KU students from Marshall County, where Blue Rapids is located.
Though neither of the Hulas attended the University, both have been strong supporters of higher education. Dorothy said that she saw the scholarships as a way of giving something back to students in her community.
"We're in a small community, and it's just interesting to watch them grow up," she said. "Some of them probably couldn't go to college if they didn't have extra help."
The Hulas were born in Blue Rapids and
graduated from Blue Rapids High School. William began his farming career immediately after high school. At the same time, Dorothy and her first husband raised three sons. After her first husband's death, she served as Marshall County treasurer for 18 years.
Acquaintances since high school, the Hulas married nearly 22 years ago. They are life members of the Chancellors Club, KU's major donor organization.
The donation will be administered by the KU Endowment Association. Founded in 1891, it is the oldest foundation of its kind at a public university in the United States.

NATION Illinois deli may be cause of large E. coli outbreak
CHICAGO — A dell's potato salad was tested Tuesday as the possible source of one of the nation's largest known E. coli outbreaks. As many as 4,500 people became ill.
"We're still seeing people who are presenting symptoms — cramps, nausea and diarrhea," said Sean McDermott, a representative of the Cook County Department of Public Health.
Meanwhile in Georgia, a virulent form of E. coll traced to a water park made at least six children sick.
The Illinois outbreak the weekend of June 6 struck customers at iwan's Deli and Catering in southwest suburban Orland Park. An estimated 4,000 to 4,500 people became ill as a result of the bacterium enterotoxigenic scherichia coli. The trouble was traced to food sold at iwan's or served at more than 300 of the 530 parties catered by iwan's that weekend.
McDermott said a statistical analysis showed that potato salad could have caused the problem.
Dr. Paul Mead of the federal Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention said the out break was the largest documented in the United States of the relatively rare bacterium, also known as ETEC or "traveler's diarrhea."
He said the next-largest outbreak was in 1980 in an unspecified Wisconsin city and made some 450 victims ill.
Mead refused to comment on whether it could be the largest U.S. outbreak of E. coli in any of its many forms. He said the Orland Park variety of the bacterium was nothing like E. coli 0157:H7, which made 700 patrons of Jack in the Box restaurants sick in Washington state in 1993. Four died in that outbreak.
Georgia health officials said a Marietta water park was the source of the more dangerous strain — E. coli O157:H7 — that has made six children ill.
"They cause completely different diseases." Mead said.
Officials have found three additional cases — two children in Tennessee and one child from South Carolina — who have become sick since attending White Water one of those two days.
The children's conditions remained unchanged Tuesday. A 3-year-old boy and 6- and 2-year-old sisters were in fair condition; a 4-year-old girl was in critical condition along with a 2-year-old girl who was the first child hospitalized.
Brody Weiss, the 3-year-old son of Atlanta Braves shortstop Walt Weiss, was in serious condition.
The hospitals have not identified the children; the elder Weiss confirmed that the middle of his three boys was among them.
While ETC, traveler's diarrhea, is common in developing countries, it is not often seen in the United States, experts said. They said there have been just 14 U.S. outbreaks in the last 23 years.
Most people recover from the illness without antibiotics or specific treatment, the county health department said.
Shortage of butterfat raises price of cream products
CHICAGO — Call it the Battle for the Bulge
Across the nation, there is a shortage of
butterfat, the stuff that makes ice cream,
chocolate, pastries and other rich, tasty
foods so good.
The shortage has led to a battle for the stuff among food manufacturers a battle that could mean record prices for butter, ice cream, cheese and cream cheese.
"I'd tell people to stock up, but I'm afraid that window of opportunity passed three weeks ago," said dairy consultant Mary Ledman of Libertville. Ill.
— The Associated Press
Butterfat is the fatty part of milk processed out to make butter and added to foods.
Americans have been greasing the wheels for an increase in prices for months, as flavor won against health-consciousness. Food manufacturers have quietly been adding more fat to their products this year, and people have been lapping it up.
The problem is this: Nobody told the cows. They are still producing the same 3.6 pounds of butterfat for every 100 pounds of milk.
"As a result, we have the butter manufacturer competing against the cheese manufacturer, competing against the ice cream manufacturer, competing against the hundreds of products that use butterfat," Ledman said Tuesday.
For only the second time in history, the price of Grade AA butter has risen to $1.95 a pound, or 73 percent higher than a year ago, on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange. Butter is about 80 percent butterfat.
Prices at the supermarket could rise to $3 a pound by late summer, economists said. Prices have been about $2 a pound for most of the year.
Dreyer's Grand Ice Cream, Ben & Jerry's and other ice cream manufacturers have raised or plan to raise their prices in coming weeks.

Med Center to be competitive
Hemenway leads meeting creating public authority
By Duane Wagler
Kansan staff writer
Next month will be the first meeting to discuss the transition of the governing of the
SIGILLUIT UNIVERSITAT LAISERIS
1908-1962
A statute from Kansas
University of Kansas Medical Center from a state agency to a public authority board. A stat
Senate Bill 373, passed in February, commissioned Chancellor Robert Hemenway to call
the first meeting of the 14member board consisting of six University officials, three of them non-voting, and eight governor-appointed members.
Included in the bill is the stipulation that the chancellor and executive vice-chancellor of the Med Center, Donald Hagen, would be on the board.
Hemenway said that the main reason for the transition was to help the Med Center survive in the increasingly competitive Kansas City area health care market.
"What the status as public authority enables it to do is to really compete in that hospital marketplace without one hand tied behind its back." he said.
The bill mandated that the transition be completed by Dec. 31, but the University hoped to have it finished by Oct. 1, said Marlin Rein, University director of budget and governmental relations.
The change would allow the Med Center to avoid the labyrinth of state purchasing
procedures when ordering equipment. Hemenway said that the transition would help level the field, allowing the Med Center to compete with other hospitals in
funds like other hospitals
"As a state agency, the hospital wasn't even permitted to collect the interest off the cash that it would put into the

such purchases as emergency room equipment.
He said that the transition also would allow the Med Center the freedom to invest its
bank," Hemenway said. Rein said he thought having board members from the University would help the Med Center remain true to its mission of being a teaching laboratory.
"That's why there are certain people
specified to be on the board from the University — so that this institution doesn't get away from what its basic heritage has been," he said.
Saferide doesn't offer lift
Students can use program in fall semester
By Liz Wristen
Kansan Staff Writer
Bar owners will not see Saferide vehicles retrieving patrons this summer.
The familiar white vehicles with the red and white logo will return for student use when the school year resumes this fall.
Safeeride is a student-funded program that was developed to provide KU students with a "safe ride" home after an evening of studying or entertainment. The program runs every evening during the regular school year. Vehicles pick up students in the Lawrence area.
"Saferide was set up for the safety of KU students," said Nicole Skalla, transportation
coordinator for KU on Wheels. "Currently, we are working to improve the system with the addition of more cars so that the program will be more efficient."
Without the availability of Saferide this summer, few options remain for students after 6 p.m.
These options consist of driving while intoxicated, walking home, choosing a designated driver or calling a taxi service.
The summer Saferide option doesn't exist for a few reaops.
A smaller number of students attend the University of Kansas during the summer, which minimizes the use of the Saferide program. Skalla said that it also would cost $3,500 a weekend to contract the use of Saferide cars from the Lawrence Bus Company.
Last year, Saferide received a budget of $108,000 for use in the fall and spring semesters. The upcoming year will allow Saferide a budget of about $125,000.
"I think that the absence of Saferide in the summer is a loophole in student services," said Scott Kaiser, student body vice president. "We still have students here in class, and without any kind of

program, I think it shows that we have an area of weakness that we need to concentrate on improving."
Student Senate is looking into setting up a Saferide program for future summers. Skalla said that Senate and the transportation department were hoping to receive other means of program funding in the meantime.
Senate members are working with the State of Kansas to set up a designated driver program that would include a grant from the
state to promote the idea.
The program would push students to choose a designated driver before going out. Skalla said she hoped that local bars would promote the program by offering free sodas to designated drivers.
Julie Francis, health educator at Watkins Health Center, provided a few tips for safe weekend fun.
"The person who is the designated driver needs to be chosen before going out," Francis said. "That person needs to stay sober the entire evening so he or she can make sure that everyone else gets home safely and responsibly."
Lawrence Taxi Service runs 24 hours a day, and students can travel to most areas in Lawrence for about a $6 fare, said Mike Jalali, Lawrence Taxi Service manager.
Students may call the Lawrence Taxi Service for more information at 842-TAXI. Saferide will resume services the first weekend of fall classes.

inconveniences such as water shortages, electricity fluctuations and attempting to survive 115 degree weather without central air conditioning. These things are mild in comparison to the other adjustments. It is more difficult to adapt to restrictions on the freedom and independence that Iregularly took for granted.
pendence have rarely looked for granted. Pakistani women are highly respected traditionally, culturally and religiously and are expected to carry themselves modestly. This eliminates activities such as wearing tight or revealing clothing (i.e. shorts) or walking alone at night. By themselves these standards do not appear overburdening, but coupled with other conservative restrictions, they are a shock.
It also is a struggle to come to grips with traditional Eastern attitudes and societal traditions. Today, the Western world is so focused on equality and political correctness that women and men grow up in a mode of individualism. In this manner, I find myself more similar to my male cousins than my female ones in Pakistan.
Daily observations of small discrepancies in the ways males and females are treated reveal much about the differences between our societies. Males are afforded more physical freedom. They come and go more freely and can wear almost anything they like. These apparent double standards are not a technique of oppression but are readily accepted and understood as a way of life.
Pakistan is a very home- and family-oriented society. College students live with their parents if possible and do not socialize as much as American students. This downplays the independence and detachment of both males and females.
It is important to note that these traditions are gradually being broken in the higher levels of society as many aspects of the Pakistani lifestyle are becoming westernized. But significant contrasts are still apparent and will be for decades to come.

But after eating a plate of rice and curry or accepting a generous gesture from a family member, my frustrations subside. The family values and moral standards I find in Pakistan are unmatched back home.
All in all, spending a summer half way across the world is a strengthening, and it makes me appreciate both the U.S. and Pakistani cultures. Less developed countries have an allure that only can be experienced first-hand. That is what I try to remember when I find myself whispering "God bless America" under my breath.

Kansas graduate to teach in China with Peace Corps
By Darrin Poschka
Kansan staff writer
University of Kansas graduate Elizabeth Behrens has accepted a position with Peace Corps to teach English to students in China.
Behrens and her husband will be part of the fourth Peace Corps group to go to China.
"My husband and I will be teaching at teachers college in the Sichuan Province," Behrens said in a press release. "We will not know our exact assignment until after we arrive."
Behrens graduated from the University in 1991 with degrees in German and journalism.
"After having gone overseas twice as a foreign exchange student, I found myself drawn to other cultures," Behrens said.
Behrens said she was looking forward to the challenges she would face.
Peace Corps was founded by President Kennedy and is celebrating its 36th anniversary this year. More than 6,000 volunteers serve in 90 countries.
Behrens is one of 39 KU graduates serving in the Peace Corps.
Jeff Martin, public affairs specialist of
the Denver Regional Recruiting Office, said that although there was no active Peace Corps organization on campus, students could still get involved.
PEACE CORPS
"We come on campus to talk to students, which is the most personal way to learn about Peace Corps." Martin said.
Martin said that Peace Corps recruiters would come to the University some time in September.
"Peace Corps has tremendous benefits," Martin said. "Learning a new culture and a new language really changes your life."
Peace Corps will be hosting the "International Education Opportunities Workshop" at 7 p.m. July 1 at Wichita State University. Volunteers who served in Latin America, Eastern Europe and Africa will answer questions.
For more information about the workshop or Peace Corps, call 1-800-424-8580, or visit their Web site at http://www.peacecorps.gov.

Chemists conduct painstaking study
by Julio Sachs
Kansan staff writer
Researchers in the chemistry department are discovering ways to generate pain.
New types of painkillers could result from an understanding of how pain is triggered in the body, said Andreas Jung, a post-doctorate resident from Germany.
Research students are working alongside Gyorgy Orosz, a visiting Fulbright fellow from Budapest, Hungary, to better understand how pain is received by the brain.
The University is providing some financial support for the project, but researchers are writing a proposal for grants and other funding, said Rich Glvens, professor of chemistry.
The basis of the research is to mask a chemical called Bradykinen, a body chemical that triggers the pain response, Jung said.
"We are interested in how Bradykinen does this particular process," Givens said. To understand how Bradykinen triggers pain, researchers are using compounds called phototriggers.
These compounds are made up of two parts. One part consists of a biological substrate, and the other part of the compound is a photoactive attachment, Givens said.
"When light is absorbed by the molecule it falls apart into two parts," Givens said. "The attachment falls off and the biological substrate is active to do its thing."
When the substrate is active, it carries the pain impulse to the brain and acts like a pain generator, Givens said.
Although the research is being conducted by the chemistry department, biologists will benefit from the research.
"This would give people studying biochemistry a tool of studying processes right down to the molecular level," Givens said.
As temperatures rise, so do campus OUIs
By Jorry Jackson
Kansan staff writer
Although fewer students are on campus, drunk driving arrests increase during the summer semester, the KU Office of Public Safety said.
KU police made 120 arrests for operating under the influence during 1997. Of those arrests, 59 were made between the months of May and August. This summer, 23 OUI arrests had been made between May 1 and June 12.
KU police officer Tony Agusto said that during the summer, police were not as
distracted by campus occurrences and could pay more attention to drunk drivers.
Saferide should run during the summer to keep drunk drivers off the road, said KU police Sgt. Troy Mailen.
Jason, a Wichita senior who asked that his last name not be used, has been arrested for OUI twice since coming to the University of Kansas. He paid $500 bond and received a diversion after his first arrest, but had to spend almost two days in jail after his second OUI arrest.
"Since I'm under 21, I had my license suspended for a
while, but the worst part was sitting in jail."
"I think people do it because they figure they can get away with it," he said. "But it doesn't always happen that way."
Jason said that several of his friends at the University drove drunk, and many of them rode in a car with him after he drank.
The KU Office of Public Safety has taken measures to prevent drunk driving. KU police officers give presentations at new student orientations and schedule educational programs at residence halls year round.
Task force seeks reform of drunken-driving laws
By Jerry Jackson
Kansan staff writer
The Far-reaching Alteration of Traffic and Alcohol Laws task force, or FATAL, met Monday to reform Kansas' drunken-driving laws.
Kansas Attorney General Carla Stovall conducted the new task force's meeting at the Kansas Judicial Center in Topeka.
In a press release Friday, Stovall said that the task force would examine how Kansas dealt with drug-impaired and drunken drivers, particularly those who drove with revoked licenses.
The task force's name should remind people of the fatal consequences of drunken driving, Stovall said.
"We are focusing on a crime which took the lives of 107 Kansans in 1995 and which caused 2,755 Kansans to be injured," Stovall said.
Stovall said she planned for the task force to meet monthly and to propose laws or changes in current laws that could be introduced during the next session of the Kansas
Legislature.
The task force is composed of 25 members including legislators, state administrators, law-enforcement officials, prosecutors, judges and drunken driving victims.
Sheila Walker, public information officer for the Department of Revenue, said that forming the task force was a positive step toward reforming drunken driving laws. She said that her department made recommendations on the fines that a person found guilty of drunken driving must pay.

Minority groups plan orientation for new students
By Both Janos Kansan staff writer
Moving away from home for the first time, making new friends and finding a niche are all things that many new students must deal with when they first come to college. Four campus groups are working to make the transition a little easier for minority students.
Black Student Union, Hispanic American Leadership Organization, Native American Student Association and Asian American Student Union are planning the Minority Student Community Weekend for Aug. 15-16. The program's goal is to help new minority students feel more at home and to meet other minority students.
"The idea is to show parents and students, the minute they pull up to the dorms, that there is a support network for all students," said Airick West, Kansas City, Mo., freshman and the program's coordinator.
Crews will be available at residence halls to help students move in, to give information about organizations and to answer questions from parents and students. Other tentatively scheduled activities include entertainment and an information fair.
The idea was generated during a town hall meeting and a brainstorming session of BSU members last semester.
Julius Williams, assistant director of the Office of Minority Affairs and BSU's adviser said that the program had received encouragement from University faculty.
"The Office of Minority Affairs also is in full support of the program," Williams said. "The thought behind it was what we can do to welcome this increase in the minority population that's occurring on campus."
Williams said that response from new students was positive and that they seemed willing to participate.
"We've talked to several minority students during orientation, and they're excited about the program and being connected with students immediately upon arrival," he said.
Organizers are seeking volunteers for the weekend. Current minority students will receive information about what they can do to help.
"We're trying to build the program with volunteers and the necessary equipment to handle the program," Williams said.
Specific places where events will be held and other details of the program are being planned and are awaiting approval.
James Kitchen, dean of students, said funding for the program probably would be approved after more questions were answered. If approved, $3,000 to $3,400 would be allotted for the activities.
"To get approved, the program has to be representative of the campus community," he said. "With all of the organizations involved, it qualifies to meet our guidelines."
For more information about the program contact Airick West at 864-4351.
Lab accident causes fluorine leak, Malott Hall evacuation
By Jorry Jackson Kansan staff writer
A science-lab accident resulted in a chemical leak and the evacuation of Malott Hall Monday.
Judy Wu, assistant professor of physics, and students triggered a fluorine leak at about 2:20 p.m. Monday at Malott Hall. The KU Office of Public Safety was notified shortly after, and the building was evacuated.
At the scene, Lawrence Fire and Medical Department officials followed hazardous-material procedures and entered the building. After the affected area was cleaned, the building was declared safe at 4:15 p.m.
Three of the four people who were in
the affected lab at the time of the incident were examined by paramedics and transported to Lawrence Memorial Hospital.
The fourth individual, Byeongwon Kang, Lawrence graduate student, left the scene. Repeated attempts by police to reach her by phone were unsuccessful.
dents were attaching a 10 to 15-pound canister to a vent chamber when the valve either failed or was opened improperly.
Mike Russell, director of Environment Health & Safety, told police that the chemical leak occurred in room B078 and that fluorine was involved.
"It's not a very friendly substance,and you don't want to spend much time around it."

lab.
KU police officers were concerned that fluorine had come into contact with the skin of the people in the
"We were told fluorine is an extremely dangerous chemical and could cause a
fatality," KU police Sgt.Troy Mallen said.
Wu declined to comment on the cause of the chemical leak. Her supervisor, professor of physics and astronomy Raymond Ammar, said that fluorine's properties were similar to chlorine.
"It's not a very friendly substance, and you don't want to spend much time around it," he said.
In the incident's wake, Ammar has convened a committee to review emergency procedures for chemical leaks and to consider new venting systems.
"We need to look at how to deal with these kind of spills more effectively," Ammar said.
New advising center eases transition
Freshmen and sophomores get focused attention
By Duane Wagler
Kansan staff writer
University of Kansas freshmen and sophomores who are confused about the advising process have a new source of help beginning this summer.
freshman with focused advising, said director Kathryn Nemeth Tuttle.
The Freshman-Sophomore Advising Center was created to provide each
"We really see this process as a joint effort between our faculty and staff advisers and the student," she said. "We certainly don't want to undo any good advising that's already being done."
Nemeth Tuttle said that the office would unite advising efforts for about 3,800 freshmen enrolling this fall.
"It's more a matter of focusing it and bringing it together and being sure that we don't let students drop through the cracks," she said.
The idea for the center came from the 1995 Freshman/Sophomore Academic Experience Committee. The center then was recommended by a 1997 Committee for Improvement of Advising Services for Freshmen and Sophomores.
When freshmen arrive in the fall, they will be assigned to advisers who will work with them through their first year. Nemeth Tuttle said that students also would be required to attend a small group meeting, an individual meeting and a follow-up meeting in the fall.
One of the center's primary services is to advise students who are undecided on their major. Nemeth Tuttle said that the center would provide the
undecided student with help in course, major and career selection.
Ra Willits, pre-social work adviser, works with the Freshman-Sophomore Advising Center. She said that the center's emphasis on early advising would smooth students' transition from pre-social work to the School of Social Welfare.
Nemeth Tuttle said that the center expected students to participate in the advising process by attending scheduled meetings.
"The only thing that really works is if the student takes an active role," she said. "It's not us just telling them what courses to take."
Indigenous Nations program names director
Kansan staff writer
By Graham K. Johnson
The brand new Indigenous Nations Studies Program has its first director.
The College of Liberal Arts and Sciences announced last Wednesday the
appointment of Western Michigan University professor of history Donald Fixico to lead the program, effective January 1, 1999. The program, approved last year, will be an interdisciplinary approach intended to train scholars in the whole breadth of Native American studies, said Carl Strikwerda, associate dean of humanities for the college.
P. R. SUNARAYAL
Flixico: named new indigenous Nations Studies Programs Director.
It's a task well suited to Fixico, Strikwerda said.
"We wanted to get someone who would attract graduate students, perhaps write a journal and do activities to
make KU one of the real centers of Native American scholarship," Strikwerda said.
He said that the University proposed the creation of the program to the Board of Regents to coordinate the research on indigenous peoples already being done on campus.
Fixico has done extensive research on Native Americans since earning his doctoral degree in history at the University of Oklahoma in 1980. He has published two books, including "Urban Indians" with Chelsea House Publishers, and has two more in progress. Fixico also did a postdoctoral fellowship at the D'Arcy McNickle Center for the American Indian, Newberry Library, in Chicago.
Since 1990 Fixico has taught history at Western Michigan University and has been working on some of the projects he will be developing here at the University, Strikwerda said.
Though Fixico could not be reached for comment, he was quoted in a press release as saying that the new program would enable a better understanding of Indian peoples, ideas and cultures in order to share their perspective with the rest of the world.
program different from others in the nation was that it would include studies of indigenous peoples in Latin America as well as the traditional study of North American native peoples.
Will Holliday, Huntington, W. Va., graduate student, said that the broader scope of the program was important. He said that the program would raise awareness of indigenous issues which are important in Latin America but rarely paid attention to or studied here.
Strikwerda said that what made the
"I'll be very happy to see that program start because it will mean a whole lot more focus on indigenous studies here on campus and more resources for students and the community," Holliday said.
Strikwerda said that Fixico's department would incorporate many of the current indigenous studies classes as well as programs such as the law school's Tribal Law Center and the Anthropology Museum's Amazonian People's Resource Initiative.
The program was developed in cooperation with Haskell Indian Nations University. Fixico has said that cooperation with Haskell was a key factor in his decision.
Venida Chenault, interim director of
"We wanted to get someone who would attract graduate students,perhaps write a journal,and do activities to make KU one of the real centers of Native American scholarship."
Carl Strikwerda Associate Dean of Humanities
American Indian studies at Haskell, said she worked with the University to provide greater opportunity for students interested in native peoples studies. Chenault said that the graduate program would compliment the bachelor's degree program in Native American studies that Haskell is establishing. The programs should strengthen each other, Chenault said.
"The thinking is that the two institutions, together, will become a national center for research on indigenous nations studies," Chenault said.

Legal Services works as student adviser, advocate
By Joyco Nowman
Kansan staff writer
Legal Services for Students does more than just advise students on speeding tickets and alcohol charges.
With summer apartment leases coming to an end and students moving into other residences, the office sees several landlord-tenant cases.
Problems arise with returned security deposits and apartment repairs, or the lack thereof.
The office regularly assists students with writing wills and contracts, troubles with consumer products, alcohol offenses, speeding tickets, and taxes.
"In the past year, I have helped students with divorces and name changes. My services have saved students a lot of money instead of paying an hourly wage to a Lawrence attorney for help and advice," said staff attorney Braxton Copley.
Legal Services for Students is completely funded by Student Senate through campus fees.
In the past, two restrictions have been placed on Legal Services for Students. One is that attorneys are prohibited from advising students against one another. The other restriction forbids the office from advising students on cases against the University.
Starting this fall, Legal Services for Students will be allowed to advise students against the University. The policy change was approved by Student Senate last year.
"I think at this campus students feel like a number. This change in policy will help students not feel like they are getting the runaround," said Legal Services for Students director Jo Hardesty. "We will be able to help facilitate students to deal with problems with the University."
This summer, aside from working on student cases, the office also is doing research. The attorneys are looking into cases between other schools and students to prepare themselves for the upcoming year.
The office is located in Room 148 of Burge Union. There are always three full-time attorneys in the office, and during the school year, there also are six part-time law students.
Hardesty said that seeking legal advice and meeting with an attorney was a painless process. During the summer, students can make next-day appointments or can be seen on a walk-in basis.
Legal Services for Students attorneys often go beyond advising to make phone calls and write letters on a student's behalf to negotiate between students and courts.
The number of students seeking legal advice increases significantly at the beginning of the school year. Students seeking advice during August and September are encouraged to make an appointment.
City debates pool
By Jenny Oakson Kansan staff writer
Several Lawrence swimmers and University of Kansas Athletic department staff want a new 50-meter pool, but neither the city nor the University is swimming in money.
Last night, the Lawrence City Commission took public comments and a letter from KU Athletic director Bob Frederick strongly supporting a larger pool option for the proposed indoor aquatic center near Free State High School.
The leading two of four design options for the center differ in pool sizes, 25 meters and 50 meters, as well as price, $7.6 million and $9.5 million. The
City Commission
center will be financed by the city's recreation fund along with Lawrence property and sales taxes, and city cannot afford the extra $2 million.
"We have an obligation to the taxpayers not to betray their trust with overspending," said Commissioner John Nalbandian. "I understand that everyone, including KU, would appreciate a bigger pool, but unless they can find the $2 million, we can't accommodate them."
Frederick said that although the athletic department does not have money to spend, he was willing to pay a fair user's fee.
Frederick cited several instances in which the University opened its facilities to the community, including the "Red Dog Days" high school program at Memorial Stadium and the open hours in Allen Field House and
"As a citizen, not an athletic director, I'm convinced that a 50-meter pool will best serve the community. And I wish we could help, but we can't." Frederick said.
Anshutz Sports Pavilion for local walkers.
Gary Kempf, head swimming coach at the University, also spoke in support of the 50-meter pool. He suggested that the commission consider new ideas like creating a City Aquatics Director position and marketing the larger pool in hopes of attracting more funds.
"I'm afraid that in 30 years, Lawrence will outgrow a 25-meter pool, and we'll be back here to discuss expansion costs." Kemp said.
Overcrowding at aquatic centers resonated with adult swimmers, youth swimming coaches, and the outdoor aquatic center staff. Complaints of limited space and time poured out from community members during the meeting.
"Speaking on behalf of all adult swimmers, there are not enough pools for our immense and increasing swimming interest in Lawrence," said Bob Lockwood, swimming instructor.
Lockwood also spoke about the limited adult swim hours at the outdoor pools in the summer along with scarce time at the Robinson Aquatic Center and the Carl Knox Natatorium, 1901 Louisiana, in the fall and winter.
The commission voted to delay any design decisions for two to three weeks. As requested by both Kempf and Frederick, it will meet with representatives from the Parks and Recreation department and the University of Kansas athletic department before continuing any development plans for the center.

Greasy joke turns into business for entrepreneurs
Lawrence couple fills a niche with their hair pomade
man staff writer
By Michael Martin
Kansan staff writer
For two local entrepreneurs, grease is the word that means business.
Lawrence residents Todd and Leslie Karnahan make and market American Greaser, a waxy hair pomade, from the kitchen of their Delaware Street home. The business that began as a joke last year has grown to dominate their lives and living space
"There's some kind of grease product in every room in the house," Leslie said.
Two 50-gallon drums of bulk petroleum stand in their garage. Buckets and a melter line their kitchen. It is an arrangement that involves elbow grease for Leslie, who competes for cooking space with buckets of processed wax.
"I'm constantly scrubbing things down," she said. "One day is bread day, the next is grease day."
The process begins when Todd takes
But not before a step that makes American Greaser the Cracker Jack of hair products: the pomade is poured on top of a small plastic toy—such as army men, spiders and skull-shaped rings—that is revealed as the product is used.
petroleum in buckets and melts it in their kitchen. The pomade is scented with a fragrance Leslie approved, and is poured by hand into small flat containers resembling chewing-tobacco jars.
Three varieties of American Greaser, which have the consistency of soft candle wax, are sold in bars and shops.
Randy Crowle, owner of Sakaroff's, 12 E. Eighth St., said American Grace had more than doubled the salon's total styling-product sales.
Crowell said customers ranged from 8 year-olds who buy it just for the toy to 50-year-old women with long hair.
American Greaser's wide appeal surprised Todd, who intended it to be a styling aid for flat tops and pompadours. He thought it would appeal to the punkskateboarder-rockabilly scene.
"I always used pomade as a teenage punker," Todd said. "We did no market research."
At Christmas 1996, Todd filled a '50ser era grease container with a pomade prototype and gave it to a friend in jest. Then he began experimenting with
petroleum samples, which were given to him by his grandfather.
Leslie oversees all accounting and marketing, including American Greaser's small catalog of T-shirts and grease. Sales are sporadic--from $100 to $1000 a month--but increasing.
Todd, who works as a construction worker, painter and bartender,might give himself to the grease full time.
The pair's future plans include expanding distribution and adding a men's accessory line and more T-shirt designs to the catalog.
Paul Burnett of the Kauffman Center for Entrepreneurial Leadership in Kansas City, Mo., said there were several local resources for home-business owners. Small Business Development Centers, as well as The Kauffman Center's web site, wwwEntreworld.org, and Fast Track program provide support.
Burnett said entrepreneur venture out on their own for disparate reasons, but all share the common thread of passion.
It's something Todd and Leslie Karnahan have been able to preserve, in their marriage as well as their business.
"I love it. It's nice to be in business with your husband," Leslie said. "It can tear some people apart, but it's brought us closer."

Local vendors sell fresh produce to support farms, community
By Robocca Ulanoff Kansan Staff Writer
The Lawrence Farmers Market gives people a reason to venture into the sweltering Kansas heat.
Located at 10th and Vermont streets, the Farmers Market has provided nourishment and entertainment to Lawrence residents for 23 years.
There is freshly picked produce for sale, including tomatoes, asparagus, raspberries and blueberries. Vendors also sell freshly cut flowers, herbs, plants, baked goods and crafts.
Karen and John Pendleton, owners of Pendleton's Country Market, have sold their flowers and produce at the market for 17 years. Karen Pendleton said that the Farmers Market offered students an opportunity for community involvement.
"Oftentimes when students are in school, they are in a self-contained environment," she said. "The Farmers Market is a way for them to get out and see what's happening with the local community."
John Pendleton said that people

Topeka student receives grant to paint the sky
By Julio Sachs Kansan staff writer
A flight of uneven stairs leads to the canvas door that shrouds the world of an artist.
Beyond the shrouded doorway is a small studio where paintings and sketches decorate the walls, floor and even the canvas door.
This is where Amy Heath, Topeka junior, is painting the sky.
"Sky Paintings" is the project idea for which Heath received an undergraduate research award grant. The grant awarded her $1,000 to use for whatever she needs.
"I am using my money for art supplies, sketch books and studio expenses," she said.
Her teacher, Tanya Hartman, assistant professor of art, told Heath about the grant.
Although she has not started painting yet, Heath said that she had already made sketches for the project.
"I recommended her because she is one of the most self-motivated of all my students," Hartman said. "I think she's a real artist. I really believe in her."
The painting would consist of two panels divided up into different sections, Heath said. She said she planned for the painting to be quite large.
"The bigger it is the more confrontational it is and the more the viewer is forced to look at it." Heath said. "You have a more intimate relationship with large paintings."
Size, she said, is a factor in the way she sees the objects that she paints.
"I'm into bigness and sound. I want people to see how big it is," Heath said.
Color also is a major focus in all of her paintings. "I use many different layers of colors in my paintings." she said.
Heath said she also tries to evoke emotions in her paintings.
"What makes her a painter is that she is able to use paint in a poetic manner." Hartman said. "As long as her paintings contain some of her inner world she will always be unique."
Heath said she was trying to decide what medium to use for her painting.
"I don't know if I want to paint on wood or stretch canvas on wood," she said. "And I am investigating what wood I want to use."
Although Heath is still looking for her tools to begin, she said that once she begins, her project would be completed in a short amount of time.
"I paint fast," Heath said. "It will probably be done in the middle of fall semester next year."
After Heath completes her sky painting project, she said she hoped to get away from the Midwest for awhile.
"I want to go anywhere in Europe," she said. "I want to do it while I'm still young."
Architecture students and teacher design house
East Lawrence spirit reflected in blue exterior
By Vanossa Whitoside
Kansan staff writer
A vision was brought to life at 933 Pennsylvania St. on Feb. 4.
Dan Rockhill, professor of architecture and his architecture graduate studio class decided to custom design and build a house. They knew they had the passion and desire to work hard to get the job done. What they did not have was a place to build or the money
to make it happen.
The Lawrence City Commission approved and allotted $62,000 for the project. A site was selected. Rockhill and his eight graduate students then rolled up their sleeves and broke ground in early February to begin construction. An open house to commemorate the completion of the house took place last Friday, and the house already has been sold to a newlywed couple.
"This group had passion and commitment without equal, and all they really needed was the guidance," Rockhill said. "The students were eager for the experience that they really couldn't get anywhere else."

"This group had passion and commitment without equal, and all they needed was the guidance. The students were eager for the experience that they really couldn't get anywhere else."
such as salvaged steel beams and maple flooring bought from a Kansas City dance hall, the construction of the three-story house began.
The 1,330-square-feet home now has a slate blue exterior, yellow signboard, a rust-colored red porch and unusually square-shaped windows placed at various heights. The interior of the house has frosted glass and wrought-iron shelving. The kitchen and two bathrooms' counter tops are made of finished cement and green bottle glass.
The students had more to consider than the materials. Designing a moderate- to low-income home reflective of the spirit of the East Lawrence neighborhood was not easy given the small, 50' x 117' lot they had to build upon, Scott Smith, Overland Park graduate student. said.
"It was easier to construct the house in such a small space by building upward and creating two floors in the front and an extra third floor in the back of the house." Smith said.
For Kristin Reisinger, Colaf,
Wisc. graduate student, participating in the design and construction of the house was an invaluable experience.
Curt Shontz, Lawrence graduate student, said that the best part of constructing the house was working as a group to complete the project.
"I think it was great that eight students who have been together for three years were able to come together, take their shared design ideas and refine them," he said.

The students also designed and produced the school-wide publication Schemata, which will be ready by late summer, to showcase their work on the house.
After completing the house, Rockhill said he was confident that another project to benefit his design students and the Lawrence community would take place in the future should vacant property become available.
"I can't think of a more pleasant group of people to work with," he said. "It has been a delightful experience."

One sorority house and two fraternity houses will be renovated as a result of a requirement by the city of Lawrence for sprinkler systems.
All fraternity and sorority houses in Lawrence must have sprinkler systems by April 6,2000, said Rich Barr, Lawrence Fire Marshall.
The Sigma Kappa sorority house, 1325 West Campus Road, is undergoing a $500,000 addition. The kitchen is being extended and study rooms and sleeping areas are being added above the kitchen, said Kalissa Kaufman, vice president of the Sigma Kappa advisory board.
The new space will increase living capacity from 68 to 78 people.
The construction to the Sigma Kappa house was prompted by the sprinkler system requirement. Kauffman said.
She said that Sigma Kappa would have a dedication in November to coincide with their founder's dav.
Kaufman said the Sigma Kappa construction would be finished by Aug. 9 in time for fall rush.
"In essence, it's a whole new house," said Lloyd Hanahan, vice president of Gamma Omicron Inc.
The Kappa Sigma fraternity, 1045 Emery Road, is undergoing a $2.8 million renovation.
Hanahan said that the exterior remained intact, but that the entire interior was being totally renovated.
Kappa Sigma will have 18 seniority suites. Upperclassmen are given first choice of the suites. The suites are set up like apartments with private baths. Hanahan said.
"Hopefully that will be an encouragement to stay at the house," he said.
The Kappa Sigma house will be ready Aug. 9 for its members to move in.
Hanahan said a dedication is planned for Oct. 10 when Bob Gould and Dave Evans would be inducted into the Kappa Sigma Hall of Fame. Gould and Evans were alumni and the architects for the renovation.
The construction of the new Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity house,1301 W. Campus Road, will be completed Aug. 1 or Sept. 1, said John Parker, chairman of the Sigma Alpha Kappa building committee.
Students have many choices in terms of living on campus. The fraternities and sororities are feeling pressure to be competitive with the rest of University housing, Parker said.
Fraternity members can take advantage of an internal phone system with voice mail and call waiting features. Each living room will have two to four Internet hook ups.
The Sigma Alpha Epsilon house will have four sleeping rooms, 35 living quarters and a library. There is more education space in the new fraternity house, Parker said.
"Our guys were leaving just to study." Parker said. "We've created more quiet places. Students are encouraged to stay and study."
Students view international news shows via satellite
by Mariana Paiva
Kansan staff writer
International students taking summer courses can have a taste of home at the University of Kansas.
Each day the Ermal Garinger Academic Resource Center receives news programs from about 64 countries through a satellite-TV program called Scola.
The center, located in 4069 Wescoe Hall, posted a calendar for the Scola satellite program, which allowed students to watch news programs from any of the countries listed.
During the fall and spring semesters, most of the programs are recorded weekly to be checked out later by students. During the summer, news from 16 countries, including China, Japan, Spain, Russia and France, will be recorded.
"The goal of the program was to enhance foreign language learning, but it turned out that international students are the main ones checking out these tapes now," said Tyler Johnson, Topeka senior and research assistant.
WEB SITE
For more information and a complete listing of the KU Ermal Garinger Academic Resource Center's listing, check out the web site at: http://www.ukans.edu/gr/>
Johnson said that students recently have asked if the center would broadcast the World Cup games. Although there is some demand for other programs, only news will be shown.
The center also has audio and computer facilities and a large collection of foreign movies and CDs. Students may choose different titles from the center's catalog or from its home page. Although students cannot check out Scola tapes, movies and CDs can be checked out for a dav.
The center can be a cheap entertainment solution for many students because it is free. However, many students do not know about the center or its resources.
Wang-Sheng Tsou, Taiwan sophomore, said that he was unaware of the center until his English 101 teacher assigned a video to his class.
Kyros Hadjikyrou, Kyrenia, Cyprus senior, said he stopped watching news from Greece at the center a couple of years ago when the center interrupted transmission of Cola.
"I didn't know they were showing it again. I may have to go back and check out what kind of programs and movies they have now." Hadikvroul said.
Although some students visit the center for entertainment, the center's main goal is to promote awareness of other languages and cultures.
"During the summer, there are a lot of students who come here to either enhance their language skills watching foreign movies, or to catch up and remind them of what they learned in high school before classes start in the fall semester." Johnson said.
Students can view the center's list of catalogs by accessing its homepage at http://www.ukans.edu/-egarc/ .

Williams talks about NBA Draft, his future
University of Kansas men's basketball coach Roy Williams discussed the status of former KU players Raef LaFrentz and Paul Pierce during a press conference on June 17.
Pierce and LaFrente are eligible for the NBA Draft, which occurs today. Williams said that Pierce had a good workout with the Vancouver Gri
William's pre-draft involvement with his former players depends on their needs.
zlies, and that LaFrentz had his best workout with the Denver Nuggets.
"Right now, I'm more involved with Raef because he has no clue about the draft process," Williams said. "That's a very uncomfortable feeling for him and his family. Paul seems a lot more relaxed."
NBA coaches ask Williams how the players deal with distractions and injuries.
Williams said that he wanted his players to be drafted highly.
"With Paul and Rae, it's easy because they're both pretty doggone good," Williams said. "They have few warts on them."
Both players are good at scoring baskets, he said.
However, Williams said that LaFrentz needed to improve his defense and that Pierce could be too casual with the ball.
Despite losing two All-Americans, Williams remains optimistic about next season.
"I think we'll be even better defensively, and we have some good recruits coming in," Williams said. "However, I think the schedule may be a little too demanding for such an inexperienced team."
Williams said that he was irritated by rumors that he would be the Chicago Bulls' next coach.
"I also heard I'm the next candidate for the soccer head coach," Williams said. "That has the same bearing as being the head coach of the Chicago Bulls. I know about as much about soccer as I know about coaching in the NBA."
LSU officials deny coaches gave money to Lester Earl
Melinda Weaver
BATON ROUGE, La. — Louisiana State University doesn't question that a couple of boosters gave Lester Earl money and meals. The
school even found truth in the charges that arrangements were made for Earl to get medical treatment and to help Earl's mother and sister find jobs.
What they don't agree with is that assistant coach Johnny Jones ever gave money to the highly sought recruit.
"There is absolutely no evidence.
THE STATESMAN
Earl: LSU denies paying him money, as he claims.
other than the testimony of Lester Earl, that Johnny Jones ever provided cash to him," said former chancellor James Wharton, who led the investigation. "Supposedly there were 70 occasions when money was exchanged
between the coach and Lester Earl. That being the case, someone close to Lester Earl should have known what took place. We could not find anyone who knew about it. In fact, there is no substantiation of the charges that he was given money by Johnny Jones," Wharton said.
The school conducted more than 80 interviews with Earl's family, friends and teammates and found none who supported the contention that Jones gave him at least $6,600 before and after he enrolled at LSU, Wharton said.
Both Jones, now an assistant coach at Memphis, and former coach Dale Brown have denied paying Earl or arranging for others to pay him.
The infractions allegedly took place between 1993 and 1996 when Brown was head basketball coach.
Jones and Brown did not immediately return calls for comment.

NCAA director's raise bothers NCAA schools
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — NCAA executive director Cedric Dempsey got a 30 percent raise — about $150,000 — which was negotiated in virtual secrecy, The Kansas City Star reported in yesterday's editions.
At the end of the fiscal year in August 1997, as a result of the hike, Dempsey's total compensation reached almost $650,000 roughly $450,000 greater than the average salary of chief executive officers of 207 of the largest nonprofit organizations in the United States.
The revelation is certain to stir controversy among many college officials, some of whom have been critical of Dempsey and his management team about their handling of the restricted earnings case
In April, a federal jury ordered the NCAA to pay a $67 million judgment for unlawfully capping the earnings of low-level assistant coaches. The judgment is under appeal, but many officials have criticized Dempsey's handling of the case, including Kansas State University president Jon Wefaldo.
Wefald also was critical of Dempsey's enormous salary
"I'm just not so sure that people like us, who are supposed to be serving the public, should be making that much money," said Wefald, whose salary is $166,235.
The Star said that the raise was negotiated by Gene Corrigan, an old friend of Dempsey's who was president of the non-profit organization at the time, and Sam Smith, the president of Washington State University who was chairman at the time of the Executive Committee.
Dempsey, who has been traveling, did not return a phone message left by The Associated Press at his NCAA office yesterday afternoon.

Jayhawks hold summer camps
Aspiring stars visit University for sports tips

Kansan staff writer
By Molinda Weaver
Although summer is a slow time in the collegiate athletic world, coaches keep busy by sharing their talent with younger aspiring athletes.
Camps exist for almost every sport known to the University of Kansas, including football, basketball, golf, tennis, soccer and swimming.
Most coaches have more than one camp, dividing campers into age groups. Elementary and junior high students can be taught sports basics and how to improve skills. High school students are taught more detailed aspects of the game and are observed as future University recruits.
"Camps are an important part of the evaluation process," said football assistant coach Rob Volks. "We can start recruiting based on what we see in camp, or continue the process because their work has confirmed what talent we thought they had."
While the football camp focuses on discipline and is coached much the same as the Jayhawk football team, women's soccer head coach Dan Magner takes a slightly different approach.
"The No. 1 goal is to make sure the kids are having fun," Magner said. "It is important that they enjoy the game and camp
Campers live on campus, sleep in the residence halls, eat cafeteria food and practice their sport of interest.
Roy Williams' basketball camp, which lasts four days, has participants practicing fundamentals and skills at various Lawrence gyms in the morning. At 2:30 p.m., they meet as a group to listen to coaches' tips and a guest speaker, who is typically a Kansas athlete.
In the evening, participants divide into groups and play against each other.
University athletes often are asked to assist with the camps to give young athletes tips from a player's point of view.
"College athletes help tremendously at the camps because campers can ask them about college life and playing college ball." Magner said.
Various coaches also are helping to coach Special Olympics athletes in a variety of sports.
For two days, Special Olympics participants will stay at Oliver Hall, learning about college life and training in a sport of their choice.
Sports vary from team sports
"The idea is to give athletes the chance to improve their skill in any given sport by working with the top-flight coaches that KU has," said Tim Rehder, Special Olympics representative.
Prices of the camps range from $125 to $450 depending on the length of time of the camp. Camps meet from one to five days.
For more information on camp dates and prices, contact the sports department of the camp you wish to attend.
Haase teaches youths teamwork
By Molinda Weaver Kansan staff writer
Former Kansas basketball star Jerod Haase is back in the game.
Haase has spent the summer touring Kansas, coaching basketball camps for campers ages 8 to 18.
Haase's camps work on basketball fundamentals and skills, but they also have a broader goal.
"I try to teach them how to develop as a person, how to treat people and how to be a team player," Haase said. "I also stress academics and the importance of doing well in school."
their success.
Haase said he had students write down three goals they hoped to accomplish in academics, athletics and community service. He said that he planned to send their written goals back in November so that the participants could measure
Tara Stewart, a sixth grader from Arlington, attended Haase's camp in Emporia, and said that she was impressed.
"All I think about is basketball, and I think he helped me improve my skills and gave me ideas on how to further improve them." Stewart said. "We worked mostly on ball-handling and teamwork, and he gave us booklets to record all the drills for practicing."
To go along with his camp, Haase has produced a video, Working Toward the Next Level, to help future athletes workout in the off-season. The 30-minute video is divided into five sections of drills emphasizing ball-handling, defense and different aspects of shooting. Haase demonstrates different drills to help improve each area.
"I try to teach them how to develop as a person, how to treat people and how to be a team player. I also stress academics and the importance of doing well in school."
Jerod Haase Former Kansas basketball player
A. R.
The video also contains quotes from famous figures, such as Abraham Lincoln, urging camp participants never to give up on their dreams.
"I'm really glad I went to the camp," Stewart said. "Jerod was so nice. He said if I needed anything I could write him, and he would write me back."
Haase's camp will
make an appearance in Lawrence June 24 at Sport 2 Sport, 5200 Clinton Parkway. Haase is scheduled to work with younger children in the morning and older campers in the afternoon.
The camp costs $40 for each session. Haase's video is available at area stores in Lawrence.
Kansan sports editor shares his wish list for Memorial Stadium
An open letter to Bob Frederick, Kansas Athletics Director: Dear Dr. Frederick
I'm excited about the fall sports schedule at the University of Kansas.
I'm a football fan, and as The Kansan sports editor, my job will be to attend football games, read about football games, write about football games, look at pictures of football games and watch football games on television.
I'm the envy of all my friends — even the ones who went to K-State and think that they have a better team.
I was visiting Lawrence a couple of weekends ago, and I decided to check on the Memorial Stadium renovations.
From the chain-link fence around the stadium, I could tell that workers still must pour concrete under the west stands and part of the north stands. However, of the work that has been completed including new floors on the east side, new concessions stands, new bathrooms (I couldn't tell whether the fixtures had been installed), the stadium looked wonderful.
Black-iron gates, replacing worn, blue wooden doors, also look beautiful.
When renovations are complete, we will have one of the premier football stadiums in America.
After the season, I understand that you will be replacing the existing press box with a large, new structure on the west side that would accommodate not only the press and coaches, but also have luxury boxes for alumni and companies.
The improvements will enhance the fans' enjoyment of Kansas football, and if Coach Terry Allen and the team respond as well, we are in for years of exciting college football on Saturdavs.
But there are some additional improvements you should consider.
First, tear down the ugly bleachers in the South end zone and move the scoreboard to one of the corners or the end zone.
I realize more seats mean more ticket revenue, but you don't sell out most of the games anyway. The pending luxury boxes will give those with the means to contribute to the program even better seating.
With the increasing cost of tickets to both professional and college sporting events, and with Kansas basketball games inaccessible for many fans, you
have the opportunity to open the Hill — and the game of football — to those families who cannot afford tickets, or whose children might be too young to sit still in the stadium.
One of my fondest memories is attending a University football game against K-State in 1992 when as many as 70,000 people filled the stadium and filled the Hill to watch Dana Stubblefield and Gilbert Brown lead the Jayhawks to a lopsided win against the Wildcats.
If plans still call for a large replay screen, install it in one corner and the scoreboard in the other. Someday, if we have a year or two of sold-out games, reinstall bleachers in the end zone.
But for now, leave the view from the H i i I unblocked
Bernard L. Koehler
— it will not hurt revenues in the long run, and it would only build support for the program.
Matthew Friedrichs sports@kansan.com
Last season, Terry Allen began a tradition of having his team walk down the hill into the stadium before games. Allow young fans and their parents to start on the Hill, and maybe, someday, they too will walk down the Hill and into the stadium with a paid ticket, or as a KU student or alumnus.
My second suggestion, tear out the turf and give us grass.
The field in Memorial Stadium has to be almost worn out. One only has to take a trip to Kansas City to see the grass in Kauffman Stadium or at Arrowhead Stadium to see what a difference it makes in the game's atmosphere.
Many of your fans played or watched high school football on grass Friday nights.
They remember the smell of cleat-churned turf, the mud smeared on jerseys and the glistening white lines painted on bright green grass.
Mount Oread is rich with other traditions. Bring that Friday night smell back to Saturday afternoons.
Two simple suggestions. Maybe you have already considered them. I think they will add to the improvements you have already made.

CAMPING DANGERS
Insect bites annoy, may cause death without treatment
By Leslie Potter
Kansas staff writer
Kansan staff writer
1234567890
Even though they might be smaller than the end of your finger, they can cause a big reaction, even death.
Insects are plentiful in Kansas, and their bite or sting can be more than annoying.
Mosquitoes are the most common biting insects. Their bites usually result in a red bump that itches because of the mosquito's saliva, according to the National Institutes of Health.
However, many people think that they have a mosquito bite when they actually have come in contact with a chigger.
"Mosquitoes are a flying insect that sucks your blood," said Myra L. Strother, a physician at Watkins Memorial Health Center. "Chiggers are very small insects that you cannot see. They crawl up your legs or drop down from trees and burrow in your skin. This causes a red bump that itches, which is very similar to a mosquito bite."
similar to a mosquito bite."

Strother recommends using an over-the-counter hydrocortisone cream to relive the itching of mosquito and chigger bites. She said that scratching can cause the skin to break open, which could lead to a secondary bacterial infection.

Some insects,
mainly bees, wasps,
hornets, yellow
jackets and fire ants,
can cause a major
allergic reaction. The reaction is usually caused by venom the insect insects, according to the National Institutes of Health.
"If swelling, hives or nausea occurs after an insect sting, then you are having an allergic reaction," Strother said. "You could put ice to it to reduce the swelling and take an antihistamine, but you should probably see a physician."
At its worst, a violent allergic reaction can cause anaphylactic shock which leads to death, according to the National Institutes of Health.
Spiders also can have a harmful bite.
"Mainly, you need to watch out for brown recluse spiders and black widows, which are poisonous," Strother said. "But if a spider bite swells up and the redness spreads, you need to see a physician."
Ticks also are an insect to be concerned about. Strother said that people have to make sure the head of a tick is removed from the skin after a bite.
According to the Kansas Department of Health and Environment, if a tick's head is left in a person's skin, it still has the ability to suck blood and grow.
Big to the hand can be a bit too much.
Many things can be done to prevent insect bites.
"Use a good bug spray." Strother said. "Be sure to spray near the bottom of your legs and wear long pants."
The National Institutes of Health recommend not wearing perfume or used scented soaps or lotions which attract insects.
Tips offer relief from poison ivy
Protective clothes keep campers safe from outdoor pests
By Leslie Potter
Kansan staff writer
Kevin Sikes, Desoto senior describes his worst camping experience.
"Well, I was answering the call of nature, and I didn't notice that there was poison ivy." Sikes said. "We'll just say that it wasn't a pleasant experience the next day."
Camping is a recreational activity for many, but poison ivy, insects and snakes are anything but fun.
"Try to avoid poison ivy, which
has three green leaves on a vine," said Myra L. Strother, a physician at Watkins Memorial Health Center. "But if you have poison ivy, and it spreads to new areas, you need to see a physician."
The Kansas Department of Health and Environment recommends wearing long sleeves and long pants when camping to protect the skin against poison ivy and washing the skin immediately after coming in contact with the plant.
Strother said that a doctor could prescribe an antihistamine that would clear up the rash. She also said to be careful when using Benadryl because it could cause a reaction and could make the rash worse.
For insect bites, Strother recommends wearing bug spray and protective clothing.
"I was answering the call of nature, and I didn't notice that there was poison ivy. We'll just say that it wasn't a pleasant experience the next day. I definitely know what poison ivy looks like now. That will never happen to me again."
Kevin Sikes
Desoto senior
"If you happen to get bit by a snake, they don't recommend trying to suck the venom out of the puncture wound anymore," Strother said. "Put ice on it and try to identify the snake so that you can know if you need an
anti-venom shot. You'll probably need a tetanus shot, too."
Sikes said that the best advice is to be prepared for events that might occur when camping.
I definitely know what poison ivy looks like now," Sikes said. "That will never happen to me again."

Titanic fans warned: Don't try this at sea
The Associated Press
BOSTON — Cruise ship passengers inspired by the "King of the world!" scene in Titanic are climbing out onto the prow, arms spread wide, in what captains are warning is an all-too-dangerous thrill.
The 300-member Passenger Vessel Association even issued a "Titanic Alert" to its cruise operators last month.
"The incredible success of the movie 'Titanic already has caused some headaches for PVA operators,' the bulletin said. "Keep your crew members alerted to this potential problem and perhaps even close or rope off the extreme bow access area of your vessel."
One false step and a Leonardo DiCapriwannabe could go hurtling to his death, safety experts said.
Earlier this month, a woman re-enacting another Titanic scene — in which Kate Winslet's character makes a deck-side suicide attempt — lost her grip on a ferry railing and plunged into the ocean off Sweden. The woman is presumed dead.
Spirit Cruises, whose ships, at less than 200 feet long, are dwarfed by the 882-foot Titanic, has beeped up its deckhand security and roped off some of its bows because of all the Titanic copycats.
"They're what we call the would-be kings of the world," said Chris Hendricks, director of marine operations.
The Island Belle, a 91-foot yacht based in Charleston, S.C., has had close to two dozen Titanic-style incidents.
The big ocean liners are apparently seeing few such incidents. The bows on modern ocean liners typically are closed to passengers and are loaded down with machinery and anchor chains, said Rich Steck, a representative of Royal Caribbean International in Miami.
Nevertheless, Steck said Royal Caribbean crews are keeping a close watch on passengers, especially adolescents with romance on their minds.
"That would be a great way for a teen boy to show off to his newly found teen girlfriend," Steck said.
AIDS vaccine tested on humans
PHILADELPHIA — Volunteers began rolling up their sleeves and receiving injections Tuesday in the first large-scale human test of an AIDS vaccine.
The Associated Press
The three-year trial of VaxGen Inc.'s AIDSvax will help determine whether the vaccine can protect people from infection with the AIDS virus. The testing is the final step before Federal Drug Administration approval.
Five thousand volunteers will participate in more than 30 U.S. cities, including New York, San Francisco, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Chicago, Denver, Los Angeles and St. Louis.
Volunteers will be injected with either a placebo or AIDSvax. Scientists say AIDSvax is not dangerous because it is not a live strain of the AIDS virus. The test is open to people who are contracting the AIDS virus, such as gay men and women whose sexual partners are infected. Many of the volunteers are already veterans of the fight against AIDS.

The test is open to people who are con-
sidered to be of high risk of contracting the AIDS virus, such as gay men and women whose sexual partners are infected. Many of the volunteers are already veterans of the fight against AIDS.
mark watkins, 38, who specializes in treating patients with AIDS, was the first participant in the nation to receive
the injection. He is one of 150 volunteers in Philadelphia.
"In treating HIV patients, I realize the devastation this disease causes, and I thought this was a worthwhile trial."
Petr Pronsati, who works for the AIDS awareness clinic Philadelphia FIGHT, said he volunteered to give hope to people.
Watkins said.
Some 25 potential vaccines have been tested worldwide, but none has advanced to this larger-scale testing, known as a Phase III trial.
Volunteers will be given a series of shots, undergo periodic blood tests and discuss their sex lives with researchers
"I think it's great that people see there is something being worked on, and people see the faces of people involved," Pronsati said.
VaxGen is using copies of the outer coating of the AIDS virus to try to stimulate the immune system to fight off the most common subtypes of the AIDS
virus. Two different formulas will be used to fight strains found in the United States and others that are predominant in Southeast Asia.
Many U.S. scientists are skeptical of AIDSvax because it is based on gp120, a vaccine the National Institutes of Health decided was too weak to study in 1994. But VaxGen said AIDSvax improves on gp120.
Smaller AIDSvax tests showed 99.5 percent of vaccinated people produced strong levels of antibodies, immune system cells that can target and kill infection, said Daniel T. Reiner, VaxGen chief operating officer.
Study organizers also are seeking permission from the Thai Health Ministry to inject 2,500 high-risk people in Thailand.
Woman who was with Cosby night of murder could not identify accused
The Associated Press
SANTA MONICA, Calif. — The woman who was with Ennis Cosby the night he was killed testified today about seeing a man's face loom up beside her moments before Bill Cosby's only son was shot dead. But she was twice unable to pick the defendant from a lineup.
Stephanie Crane, a screenwriter, said she was supposed to have had a dinner date with Ennis Cosby the night of Jan. 15, 1997. The date was delayed, and then Cosby called her after midnight from the cellular phone in his car. saving he had a flat tire.
Crane, testifying in the murder case against Mikail "Michael" Markhasev, 19, said she offered to come and help Cosby because it appeared he was alone.
face appeared in my window. "He said, 'Open your door, or I'll shoot.'
When she pulled up behind Cosby, she said, "It was freezing cold and a little bit rainy. Ennis leaned down and hugged me and said, 'Hello, friend.' We kept talking. He said he liked working on cars. I said, 'I can't believe you're doing this.'"
The witness said she put her car in gear, pulled forward and turned hoping to scare him off with her lights.
Crane said she retreated to her car because of the cold. Minutes after she got into her black Jaguar, she testified, "All of a sudden a man's
when I turned around I couldn't see Ennis. I started screaming, 'Ennis! Ennis!' I had the crazy thought that he'd been kid-napped.
As jurors listened intently, she continued her account.

"Then I saw this person in the distance running. I looked down and I saw
Cosby: trial of his son's murder continues.
Ennis on the ground."
Crane said she called 911, then called a friend and the next morning tried to reconstruct the scene for police and gave them information for a composite drawing of the killer.
"I said he was very thin, very pale, very young." Crane said. "He had a wool hat so I couldn't see his hair. He had high cheekbones and a
very pointv nose."
The defense says another young man who also resembles the composite sketch was the actual killer.
Under questioning by Deputy District Attorney Anne Ingalls, Crane told of going to a police lineup where she failed to pick Markhasev. She said she even tried to have the individuals repeat the words that had been said to her but that did not seem to help. One young man was crying and seemed nervous, so she picked him. It was not Markhasev.
Yesterday, the prosecution asked her to pick the man she saw the night of the shooting from a lineup of photos. This time, she said she could not identify any of them as the man.
Crane, 47, said she and Cosby, 27, met a week before at a party and had spoken often on the phone trying to arrange a date. The night they were to meet for dinner, Cosby went to a sports club to play basketball. The game run into the night, and the dinner date was repeatedly delayed and, in the end, never took place.
A police handwriting analyst linked Markhasev to a series of jailhouse letters in which the prosecutor claims he gave tacit confessions to killing Cosby Monday.
Clinton's Iran missile act veto may bring reconciliation
WASHINGTON—President Clinton
Clinton planned to quietly veto the Iran Missile Proliferation Act, White House representative Mike McCurry said yesterday. The legislia
WASHINGTON has decided to veto legislation on Iranian sanctions, saying Congress did not write in enough flexibility for him to negotiate as he pursues a new relationship with Iran.
The Associated Press
Clinton: will veto legislation on Iranian sanctions.
.
tion would automatically impose sanctions on any foreign government or business that supplies ballistic missile technology to Iran.
Currently, under the 1996 Iran and Libya Sanctions Act, the president may impose sanctions on foreign companies that invest at least $20 million annually in Iran's oil and gas sectors.
The veto comes less than a week after Clinton expressed hope for a genuine reconciliation with Iran if it complies with international standards of conduct and moves away from its support of terrorism and distribution of dangerous weapons. The Clinton administration already has eased travel to the United States for Iranians and is supporting cultural and academic exchanges.
Some members of Congress said they would push to override the veto, citing
concern about moves made by Russia and China to supply Iran with missile technology.
"This proliferation cannot and must not be ignored. It is a direct threat to peace in the Middle East," said Rep. Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif. "This carefully crafted legislation will strengthen the president's hand in dealing with proliferators."
McCurry said Clinton feels Congress is trying to "micro-manage" U.S. foreign policy and put

Gambling scam at Harrah's casino fools dollar slots
The Associated Press
BUCCero said the gamblers allegedly used $2 coin tokens from casinos in Louisiana and Missouri in Harrah's $1 slot machines.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Six gambambers have been charged with cheating the slot machines at a Harrah's casino by playing the machines there with tokens from other casinos.
Assistant Clay County Prosecutor Larry Buccero said a search of several guest rooms uncovered a large quantity of $2 coin tokens.
Once they triggered the slot machine to play, though, the $2 tokens would fall back into the player's coin tray. The gamblers were basically playing for free. McKav said.
"They fooled the machines," said Missouri Highway Patrol Lt. Hugh McKay.
But they did not fool the staff at Harrah's North Kansas City Casino & Hotel.
The casino received a tip about the scam and began watching a group of suspected players. After videotaping the group's actions, the casino called police who made the arrests Friday night at the hotel.
Harrah's officials had little to say Monday. "We intend to cooperate fully with authorities," said casino spokesman Jeff Hook. "This is the first time this has happened to us."
McKay said Highway Patrol gaming agents alerted other area casinos to the scam and are trying to determine whether the group was pulling the same scam elsewhere in the Midwest. He said it was the first time he had heard of it happening in Missouri.
Buccero said there were reports of a similar scam earlier at some Illinois riverboat casinos.
The six arrested have been charged with casino cheating by the Clay County prosecutor's office. The felony charge carries a penalty of up to five years in prison and fines up to $5,000.
Those charged are John C. Fogle, 21, of Kirby, Ark.; Shannon A. Bates, 29, and Donna S. Hamilton, 31, both of Mountain Pine, Ark.; Paula J. Coronado, 29, and John T. Pitchford Jr., 23, both of Glenwood, Ark.; and William H. Lehman, 42. of Hamilton. Ohio.
Bond was set at $20,000 each.

X-Files: The Movie is out there
Series translates strangely well to film version
FBI
By Jeromy M. Dohorty
Kansan movie critic
If Oliver Stone had directed Close Encounters of the Third Kind, he probably would have come up with something like the big-screen version of The X-Files.
Scully (Gillian Anderson) and Mulder (David Duchovny) make life-and-death decisions while investigating the bombing of a Dallas office building in The X-Files. Contributed Photo.
This movie is to conspiracy nuts what *Jurassic Park* was to dinosaur freaks. Gray-haired white guys, black helicopters and government cover-ups are all here to provoke that little militia member inside all of us.
Series creator Chris Carter has written a movie that will engross even those who have never watched a single episode. Unlike some of the Star Trek flicks, newcomers to this saga of Scully and Mulder (including this critic) will not feel like a babe lost in the woods. Carter accomplishes this by getting right into the action, gradually allowing us to learn more about the heroes along the way. FBI agents Fox Mulder (David Duchovny) and Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson), once the trackers of unexplained paranormal activity, have been transferred to the Dallas office. In an unsettling evocation of the Oklahoma City bombing, someone threatens to torch a federal building with 10 gallons of liquid explosive. Mulder and Scully take a closer look. Could the bombing instead have been a ploy to hide evidence of an extraterrestrial plague that could make the Ebola virus seem like a case of the sniffles?
Guided by director Rob Bowman, who has helmed a couple dozen of the series' episodes, our heroes dash across the globe Indiana Jones-style from Texas to Washington to Antarctica. They encounter several series regulars, such as Cigarette Smoking Man (William B. Davis) and Well Manicured Man (John Neville), and meet new characters, such as Dr. Alvin Kurtzwell (Martin Landau), who claims to have the inside track on the conspiracy. Armin Mueller-Stahl from Shine also clocks in for a creepy bit as the apparent mastermind
behind the plot. Anderson and Duchovny, whether dodging swarms of bees or low-flying black helicopters, provide the emotional center lacking from this summer's blockbusters. Scully is the brains of the team while Mulder provides the passion for the truth. We can sense the strength of their unspoken bond and how each would suffer without the other.
One has to wonder who is the movie's intended audience. Regular fans will likely balk at the movie for not cutting deep enough into the mythology.
X-FILES
Kansan Rating: *** out of *****
Running time: 2 hours
Rated PG-13 for some intense violence and gore
Yet mainstream moviegoers, who in recent years have gleefully gobbled up cinematic garbage like Independence Day, could find this brand of character- and idea-driven drama too much to handle. Whatever the case, The X-Files is the first popcorn movie this summer truly to deliver the goods.
KU alum reveals secrets of X-Files
By Warisa Chulindra
Kansan staff writer
The University of Kansas has a tie to the recently released X-Files - The Movie.
Ward Russell, a 1968 KU theater alumnus, was the movie's director of photography.
Russell returned to Lawrence during the movie's opening weekend. He attended a matinee Sunday afternoon at Southwind 12 Theaters, 34th and Iowa.
The KU department of theatre and film and the Lawrence Film Commission held a post-movie reception in Russell's honor at the Varsity Theatre, 1015 Massachusetts St. John Tibbetts, assistant professor of theatre and film, moderated the event, and clips of Russell's work were shown. Russell has been director of photography for such movies as The Last Boy Scout and Days of Thunder, as well as more than 300 commercials.
"I came to the reception because I'm a double major in film," said Emily Smith, Houston junior. "I loved hearing him talk about cinematography."
Questions from the audience focused on cinematography and the cast of The X-Files.
An aspiring film student asked Russell what being a director of photography involved.
Russell said that directors of photography supervised images and lighting and hired the lighting and grip crews.
When asked how he became involved with the movie, Russell said, "I was the last person interviewed for the job."
Russell said that he was hired six weeks before the shooting of X-Files -- The Movie began. The interview was at 10 a.m. on a Friday morning, and Russell was hired four hours later and went to work Monday morning. A typical workday lasted 12 to 14 hours.
Before working with the movie, Russell said he had never seen an entire episode of The X-Files.
That quickly changed. Russell had to watch stacks of tapes of past episodes before the movie began filming.
When asked what he thought of series creator Chris Carter, Russell
described him as a deep man who spoke quietly.
"He is The X-Files," Russell said. "The man keeps his thumb on everything. He's a control freak."
Audience members also were curious about Gillian Anderson and David Duchovny, who play FBI agents Dana Scully and Fox Mulder in the film.
To the amusement of the audience, Russell responded as a cinematographer. He revealed his efforts to detract attention from Anderson's petite frame by using the proper camera box, and said he used a long lens on Duchovny so his nose wouldn't appear so big.
"I love the whole movie," Russell said. "One of these days I'll actually listen to it."
