Lawrence Fire Marshal Richard A. Barr said arson was suspected from the beginning.
Bart said his son was injured when fire investigators brought in Holmes, a dog from the Topeka Fire Department trained to sniff out material used to start fires.
"We brought Holmes in, and he targeted several locations that were exposed to accelerators," Barr said.
Investigators then took samples of the materials that Holmes had pinpointed.

Barr said they usually sent materials to the Kansas Bureau of Investigation laboratory in Topeka for testing but, because of the months that it would take to get results back from the KBI, they were considering using

Dow falls 512 points
Problems with Russia's economy fuel market scares worldwide
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — The Dow industrials plummeted a near-record 512 points yesterday, tumbling below 8,000 for the first time in seven months and more than wiping out all of this year's gains.
It was the second-largest point drop ever, closely trailing the record 524.26 points of Oct. 27, 1997 and just above the 508-point "Black Monday" swoon of Oct. 19, 1987, when the market had its biggest percentage fall, a tumble of 22.6 percent.
Today's loss was 6.4 percent, the biggest daily percentage drop since last October. The Dow ended at 7,539.07. The last time it closed below 8,000 was on Jan. 30.
Broader indicators also plunged and the Nasdaq composite index was registering its biggest point drop ever.
in last week's global stock market rout, the Dow plunged 481.97 points, or by 5.6 percent, its biggest percentage drop for a calendar week since 1989.
At July's peak, when the Dow was at 9,337.97, it had been up 18.1 percent. The drop of 19.3 percent from the July record is the biggest retreat since a 21.2 percent slide triggered by the Persian Gulf crisis in the summer and fall of 1990.
In the heady bull market that began in October 1990 and saw the Dow nearly quadruple, setbacks were routinely viewed as buying opportunities. Lately, however, traders have been viewing any attempts at a recovery as a selling opportunity.

In Europe, a key index of German stock prices closed down 2.3 percent and leading market gauges also finished lower in France, Italy, Switzerland and the Netherlands.

Hong Kong's key Hang Seng Index tank 5.7 percent in the first seven minutes of trading today and ended the day with a 7.1 percent decline, falling 554.70 points to 7.275.04.
In Singapore, the benchmark index fell 28.83 points, or 3.25 percent, to a new low of 856.43 after ending below the 900-point level on Friday for the first time in 10 years.

Bookstores hope to sell texts online next year
Store owners wonder if system requires too much effort on the part of students
The Kansas and Burge Union bookstores and Jayhawk Bookstore now sell general merchandise on the web and sell textbooks for independent study courses. Within the next year, they hope to sell textbooks for all University of Kansas courses, said Mike Reid, manager of the Kansas and Burge Union bookstores.
By Liz Wriston
Kansan staff writer
Long lines of students waiting to buy their textbooks may shorten as a few Lawrence bookstores turn to online book selling.
University bookstores are currently competing with online textbook companies that specialize in selling school textbooks.
Rhea said the Union bookstore websites now only offer books for independent study courses because of their limited number. He said the Union bookstores are hoping to catch up with the online textbook companies, but there are simply too many courses for the current computer system to handle.
system An updated system will allow the bookstores to store more course data. Reid said.
Students may pre-order their textbooks at the Kansas and Burge Unions at www.joyhawk.com or through the Jayhawk Bookstore at www.joyhawkbookstore.com.
TEXTBOOKS
The option to buy textbooks online will be available at the Kansas and Burge Unions within the next year, and at Jayhawk Bookstore within the next couple of years.
Reid said the Union bookstores

have been looking at software packages that would enable the bookstores to sell books online, but the programs are expensive. A new system could cost the University around $38,000. However, Reid said an online book-buying program would probably be available within the next year.
Students may pre-order their textbooks at the Kansas and Burge Union bookstores and at Jayhawk Bookstore, but they still must go to the bookstores to pick up and purchase their books.

Students fined $100 for missing tuition date
By Jason Pearce
Kansan staff writer
A new University of Kansas policy to fine students $100 for failing to pay their tuition on time is more appropriate than dropping them from class rosters, students and faculty say.
The additional fine appeared on 1,275 students' bills this semester when they missed the Aug. 13 tuition deadline. In previous years, students who missed the tuition deadline were dropped from enrollment and fined between $25 and $100 depending on how soon they re-enrolled.
However, students will have to pay the fine and their tuition by Sept. 8 or be dropped from all classes, said
Brenda Seman associate registrar.
Diane Goddard, University comptroller, said the University had to deal with numerous students in the past — between 1,200 and 1,300 per semester — who were dropped from their classes.
Late fee policy
- 1,275 students were assessed the fine this semester.
- An average of 1,200-1,300 per semester have been dropped in year's past.
- First payment deadline was Aug. 13.
- Final deadline is Sept. 8, with the $100 fine.

"Not only was it an incredible hassle for the students to re-enroll, but it was an incredible workload for us," she said.
their classes.
Of those people, Goddard said, approximately two-thirds would re-enroll in classes after paying the tuition bill, making late-enrollment lines longer.
Selman also believed the new policy had improved the enrollment process
"Most of the students who were dropped in the past did intend to be here," Selman said. "But to re-enroll they would have to be re-advised, ask faculty members if they could get back in the class and sometimes miss out on the first week of school."
Selman, a member of the University fees policy committee helped in the development of the new policy. She said the new fine alleviated those problems.
"One hundred dollars is a lot of extra money, but it is worth it to those people to maintain their schedule as it was when they initially enrolled," she said.
Tuyen Nguyen, Kansas City, Kan., senior, received the fine. He said he thought the fine was a better solution than re-enrolling students but felt the monetary penalty was too stiff.
"I think it is a little ridiculous that students who also work part-time and don't receive any financial aid have to pay more money just for being a day late," Nguyen said. "That money could be spent on books or gasoline, so I can commute to school."
commute to school.
Money generated from the fine will be used for improvements to the enrollment and fee payment system, said Lindy Eakin, associate provost for support services.
Kris Tuck, Topeka junior, found out about the fine when he went to pay his tuition bill a couple of days after the due date.
"It is really a better policy than the alternative, because you don't have to go through the trouble of re-enrolling." Tuck said.
Kathleen McCluskey-Fawcett, associate provost for academic services, said the fine was not meant to suck more money out of students' wallets.

"But we need some way to make sure students are paying their bill on time," she said.

Man wearing only cap flashes KU student
A 19-year-old KU student answered her door early Saturday morning to a man wearing a blue baseball cap — and nothing else, Lawrence police said.
The incident occurred at 4:40 a.m. in the 1100 block of Louisiana Street, Lawrence police said.
The nude man, a 5-foot-3 tall white male with short hair, knocked on the door and made a sexual comment, Lawrence police said.
"He asked if she would sexually gratify him and pointed to his genitalia," said Lawrence Police Sgt. George Wheeler. "She slammed the door and called the cops."
The KU student told police she had seen the man the previous night and that she recognized him because he had worn the blue baseball cap then.
She told police that the previ night the man had been wearing a white t-shirt and green khaki shorts.
Police are still investigating the incident. No arrests have been made.
The student could not be reached for comment.
Lawrence youth arrested for drug, gun possession
A 15-year-old Lawrence resident was arrested Sunday night on drug and firearm charges after he was pulled over for not using his turn signal. Lawrence police said.
The incident began when a Lawrence police officer ran the youth's license plate number through the police computer after he failed to signal for a turn in the 1600 block of Haskell Avenue.
The tag number was not registered to the car the youth was driving, so the officer turned on his lights and siren, Lawrence police said.
When the youth did not pull over, the officer pursued him until he did pull over in the 3100 block of East 18th Street Terrace.
The officer then searched the car and found a 9 mm semi-automatic pistol
and a bag containing a green substance believed to be marijuana and four white rocks believed to be crack cocaine, Lawrence police said.
The youth was arrested for possession of crack cocaine, possession of marijuana, criminal possession of a firearm and attempting to elude a police officer, Lawrence police said.
The youth, a student at Center High School in Kansas City. Mo.. could not be reached for comment.
Police seek two men in grocery store robbery
For the second time this month,
Chris's Fresh Marketplace, 608 N.
Second St., was robbed.
This time, two men, one of them armed, robbed the store of an undisclosed amount of money late Thursday night, Lawrence police said.
Two 20-year-old Lawrence residents were working in the store when two black males with goatees, one about 6-foot-5, one about 6-foot-3, wearing matching black stone-washed jeans and black Michael Jordan t-shirts entered the store and walked around pretending to be shopping.
The taller of the two then pulled a handgun and demanded cash. The two employees compiled with the robbers and gave them the money from the safe.
Lawrence police said no cash was removed from the register and no shots were fired.
The men were last seen running away to the south.
The store also was robbed Aug. 3, but police do not know if the robberies are connected.

New AIDS virus strain found in west Africa
WORLD
French researchers have isolated a new strain of the AIDS virus in west Africa that appears to have close genetic links to a strain that infects nonhuman primates such as chimpanzees.
The new strain so far has been found only in one patient, a 40-year-old woman in Cameroon who died of complications of AIDS in 1995.
Infectious disease experts are publishing a report on the new strain in the Sept. 1 issue of Nature Medicine. They said they do not expect it to become prevalent, but it could escape detection by current diagnostic methods used in laboratory screening programs.
French and African officials have launched a public health investigation in Cameroon and Gabon to determine if the new strain is being widely transmitted.
On a global scale, there are two epidemics, HIV-1 and HIV-2. HIV-1 is the more widespread of the two viral groups; HIV-2 is found mainly in Asia and east Africa.
Russian leaders reject proposed prime minister
MOSCOW — Lawmakers yesterday overwhelmingly rejected the appointment of Viktor Chernomyrdin as prime minister despite warnings that Russia was on the verge of political and economic collapse.
The Duma, the lower chamber of parliament, voted 253-94 not to confirm Chernomyrdin after more than three hours of bitter debate; 105 deputies declined to vote. Hard-line delegates called for President Boris Yeltsin's resignation.
Commistinist leader Gennady Zyuganov said Chernomyrdin, who was fired as premier last spring, was responsible for many of Russia's current problems and his return to power would only make things worse.
F. R. MAYOR
Parliamentary leaders agree to hold talks today to draw up a list of possible
candidates for prime minister to submit to Yeltsin. Yeltsin said earlier he would nominate Chemomyrdin again if the Duma voted against the premier, aides said. Before the vote, Chemomyrdin said he would continue with plans to form a Cabinet even if

At least 17 people killed in explosion in Algeria
ALGIERS, Algeria — An explosion in Algeria's capital killed at least 17 people yesterday, hours after the government said it would open 48 offices to investigate those missing in the six-year Islamic insurgency.
Agerian security forces said in a statement that 17 people were dead and about 60 were wounded. Hospital sources, speaking on condition of anonymity, put the death toll at 20.
The explosion, near a popular marketplace, sent panicked people running through the streets in the neighborhood of Babel-Oued, considered a stronghold of Muslim fundamentalists. There was no immediate claim of responsibility, but suspicion fell on militants waging an Islamic insurgency against the government.

a different lab.
Officials at the KBI lab in Topeka said testing materials from fires takes them longer because they do not get to them as quickly. They are less of a priority than other crimes such as murder, or drug crimes, officials said.
"Since this is of a lower priority, we expect that it would take months to get anything back." Barr said.
Barr said they were looking at using other public or possibly private labs for the testing. He said cost would be a consideration with private labs.
Barr said investigators had completed the physical investigation of the fire and now were interviewing property owners, construction workers, witnesses and anyone else connected with the fire.
Barr said investigators had some leads and some suspects in the arson. He would not comment on who the suspects were or what leads they had. He would only say they expected the interviews to narrow down the number of suspects.
Investigators also are collecting fire pictures from local media to help in the investigation. Barr said firefighters usually did not notice specifics during a fire because they were busy putting it out.
Barr said they had taken pictures of their own, but some of the media's photographs could help them in their investigation in ways their own could not.

Hip-hop troupe holds tryouts
Kansan Staff Writer
By Mariana Paiva
Students are welcome to jump, kick and move their hips today and tomorrow at the Frontier room in the Burge Union.
The Unity Hip-Hop Dance Troupe will choose 10 dancers this week for its 1998-99 season. The group invites students with no previous professional experience to participate as well as dancers from all genders and races.
faces.
"We want everybody to be involved," said Eve Bradley, Shreveport, La., senior. "I love seeing that we have people from different races in our group."
Bradley founded the troupe two years ago because she was not satisfied with the classical dance classes.
Bradley said that people tended to think only African Americans danced hip-hop, but that her troupe wanted to show this was not true.
She only requires student members be enrolled at the University of Kansas, be talented and look forward to going to practices.
The audition will start at 7 tonight, and candidates will sign up and learn hip-hop pieces for two hours. Tomorrow, members of the troupe will choose dancers based on how the candidates perform the pieces they learned the night before. The final stage will be an interview with each of the candidates who had passed the dance test.
Ngan Vuong, Wichita junior,
said she had no experience in
hip-hop when she tried out two
years ago.
bradley said practices usually took place every Tuesday and Thursday, but it could change depending on everybody's schedule.
"I loved to dance, but I found out hip-hop is more like my style," Vuong said. "I encourage everybody to come and participate. People just need to have the right attitude to dance hip-hop."
Vuong said the troupe performed in a variety of places in Lawrence depending on invitations they received from other organizations and businesses. In October, the troupe expects to organize a talent show in which each member will be able to present a hip-hop piece.
The troupe asks candidates to wear proper dress attire for the tryouts including comfortable shoes.
For more information contact Eve Bradley at 864-8121 or Ngan Vuong at 832-9597.
New bill eases financial aid duties
By Chad Bettes
Kansan staff writer
Congress recently eased those reporting restrictions through 1999.
When Congress passed a bill giving some students and their families tax relief, they also passed some hefty reporting requirements for universities.
restrictions on college tuition."
"I'm delighted, and I think it's an appropriate decision," said Diane Del Buono, director of student financial aid. "There hasn't been a lot of guidance regarding the Taxpayer Relief Act."
In the Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997, education-friendly provisions such as Lifelong Learning tax credits and Hope Scholarships were created for university students.
The bill placed a burden on universities to report certain financial information to the Internal Revenue Service. The required information includes students' and parents' Social Security numbers and the amount of money
paid by each student for education apart from scholarships and grants, Del Buono said.
The IRS needs the information to ensure that tax filters take the correct tax credit, depending on their educational and financial situations.
Called the IRS Restructuring and Reform Act, the legislation relieved universities of their responsibility to report the information to the IRS through 1999.

Chris Johnson, associate director of student financial aid, said she hoped Congress would find a way to enact a self-reporting system. In that system, students and their families would be responsible for providing the IRS with the required information.
required information. Del Buono is not planning on the reporting being permanently repealed. She said plans are underway to make sure the University is in compliance when the reporting requirements take effect.
Offices of financial aid, general accounting, the registrar, computer services and internal
auditing will be involved in the compliance effort. They currently are looking into the logistics and cost of what is involved.

"KU is going to make an effort to go beyond what is required to make it easier for students and to provide information to families," Del Buono said.

This year, the University will begin providing part of the requested information. Each student will receive a 1098-T form, which will include information about the University, the student and the student's classification in school. The IRS also will receive a copy of the form.
Tom Hutton, director of University Relations, said the situation was not surprising or unusual when dealing with Congress.
"They have good intentions, but they sometimes work out the details later." Hutton said.

Online book buying becoming more available
Continued from page 1A
University Book Shop plans to offer online pre-ordering within the next month and is still unsure of when it will sell textbooks online, said Mike Lammers, University Book Store manager.
MILL Muggy, owner of Jayhawk Bookstore, said his store plans to begin selling textbooks online, but he is unsure of how useful such a service will be to students who live close to the bookstores and could avoid shipping and handling costs.
"If thought that in the future we will

He said Varsity Books, another online company, required students to know more about their textbooks than the author and title.
One company, Amazon books, sells books online. But Muggy said Amazon books is a trade book company, which means it carries a greater discount, but it only offers general novels and reference materials.
"I have been at this website for over an hour, and I haven't even gotten a chance to order a book yet." Reid said. "I tried to enter both the title of the book I was ordering as well as the author, and neither of those worked with this site."
Students have another option when purchasing or selling their books. The KU Book Exchanges (KUBE) is a free, non-profit organization that was started last spring for

"I think the book exchange has been a really good idea," said Seth Hoffman, Lenexa junior. "I think more people should use it because the selection of books will continue to improve."
Students can buy or sell their used textbooks through KUBE. The website lists the titles of books, their costs and the name of the student they may contact if they are interested in purchasing any textbooks. Students also may add books to the list.

Bleachers should offer seats to all
Area businesses need to keep their doors open to everyone if they want to be successful. This principle was illustrated last week in an article that was published in the Kansan that mentioned a new policy for Bleachers, a local night club. The new policy stated that to enter the club, patrons had to have a KUID because the owner wanted "a club for the students."
This irritated several students who attend Haskell Indian Nations University as well as members of the KU chapter of the Native American Student Association (NASA). They felt discriminated against because they were not included in the new policy and were no longer allowed to go to the club without being chaperoned by a KU student.
This new policy also illuminated
Bleachers policy of only allowing students excludes other community members.
issues concerning "Greek Night," which is every Thursday night at Bleachers. Last semester, several African-American students were not allowed to enter the club because no traditionally black greek organizations were listed with the other Greek organizations.
Dannie Thompson, the owner of Bleachers night club and Tailgaters restaurant, was caught off guard by these accusations of discrimination.
"As an African-American myself, I would be the last person to have discriminatory policies," Thompson said.
Both policies were immediately amended as soon as these concerns were brought to his attention.
were biographies. Thompson should go one step further and change his policy to allow nonstudents into his establishment as well. Students are not the only citizens of this community, so they should not be the only beneficiaries of local businesses.
Thompson made the appropriate decision in a swift manner to allow Haskell students to attend the club and as a result has undoubtedly secured the continued business of many students from both Haskell and KU.
But the issue should still be taken one step more by admitting everyone from the Lawrence area, not just students.

Cooperative effort deserves praise
This week the editorial board is recognizing the cooperative effort between Haskell Indian Nations University and the University of Kansas with a Pat on the Back.
When Haskell was in a pinch because of overflowing residence halls, the administration sought help from the University of Kansas. KU answered by offering 24 Haskell students a places in McColum Hall.
Although it is unfortunate in some respects that the Haskell students were displaced because they miss out on the opportunity to live with the students with when they attend class with, this instance shows how important the relationship between the two universities is. For example, Haskell didn't have to look to KU for help. Instead, the institution could

have placed students in apartments or other living arrangements. But it didn't. It came to KU.
The students placed at KU still will be able to experience residence-hall life. Had they not been put in that living arrangement they would have been cheated out of a valuable life experience.
This experience will give Haskell students an opportunity to get hands-on experience of both Haskell and KU. It also will give KU students living in McCullum an opportunity to meet and build a stronger relationship with Haskell students have the chance to benefit from the living arrangement, but the Haskell students who agreed to live in McCulium are doing so for free. Haskell is picking up the tab.
ship with Haskell students.
One of the possible problems with the arrangement is the commute between the Universities. So far, it has not yet posed a serious problem. Many of the Haskell students are car pooling if they don't have their own transportation. However, ideas already are circulating about making a bus route between the two institutions. This cooperation and the ideas of future cooperation are what strengthens KU and Haskell along with the Lawrence community.

Devlin is a Topeka senior majoring in English.
You should. This is the feeling half of the Greek community experienced after reading Carrie Johnson's greek-bashing article.
Johnson begins with her admission that she has no knowledge of the sorority system, and she tells us that she will share some of her observations. By modifying observations into criticisms, we can begin to deconstruct her arguments. The majority of the article can be dismissed as ad hominem attacks. Examples of this are seen by mention of $150, size-six dresses and rushing to throw away their individual and independence.
Feedback
Column employs unfair stereotypes
All schol-hallers are study freaks and computer nerds. All dorm dwellers are freshmen and exchange students. Feel alienated and stereotyped yet?
Individuality and independence bring up another point. The Greek community is not homogeneous. Not only do all houses have their own identities rooted in philanthropic activities, emphasis on grades, and involvement with other houses, but every girl is different. Saying that they have thrown away their individuality and independence is equivalent to saying all living groups are the same.
groups are the same. Johnson continues by implying sororites have no faith in freshmen. The opposite is true. Choosing a sorority is an intensely personal and sometimes stressful event. To have those choices influenced by anyone, is unfair and creates an atmosphere of peer pressure during a time when all choices should be open. Everyone is subject to peer pressure: freshmen, seniors, faculty, adults — everyone. Johnson then insults the freshmen herself by calling them vulnerable, lonely, confused, etc.
When I pointed out the unfair stereotypes and myths to a friend of mine, his reaction seemed to be "So, everyone else does it." I refer to the

Fragments.
I would like to say that being able to read Donato Fhunsu's articles in The University Daily Kansan last year and again this year have been a privilege. Considering the scandal and partisanship that disrupt U.S. politics — from the national level to our university — it is fair and open-minded individuals like Fhunsu from whom we should be looking for leadership.
Fragments I keep thinking of this word as the Clinton-Lewinsky scandal continues to unfold. Commentators and self-styled experts weigh in with daily analyses of the latest fragments to come off the Beltway. It is as if the scandal has taken a life of its own — like the mythological nine-headed hydra, each time a head is cut off, two more emerge to take its place.
old adage, "If everyone jumped off a cliff, would you jump off too?" The questions I ask are: How have you formed your opinion of the greek community? Are or were you a firsthand participant? Was your parent or sibling involved in the greek system? Have you formed your opinion by listening to others and judging the superficial aspects of a fellow student? If the latter is the situation, I recommend you go find your individuality and independence rather than making others opinions your own.
in listening to the defensive posturing on one side and howling for impeachment on the other, I keep wishing for context to the fragments bandied out. Part of this wish comes from having read John
My call is not for President Clinton to be excused for his misdeeds because we do not understand his context fully. Rather, I would welcome the fuller story to be told such as an exploration of what goes into the making of other leaders who have popular support even as evidence of lies surfaces. How about a fuller story about the apparent chasm between what the media inside the Beltway says and people outside Washington are saying?
rnese suggestions and other ideas don't have to be the stuff of 700-page novels. But the commentary could be more substantive than the various fragments that have been our diet for the last several months.
Steinbeck's "East of Eden" this summer. A 700-page novel spanning three generations and a whole country, I felt like I got to know the characters intimately. Their acts ranged from virtuous to evil. However, I always felt like I could understand the bigger picture as to why the characters did what they did.
I wish I could say the same thing about how the scandal has been handled by media and commentators. As attention shifts from one salacious detail to the next, the titillation factor gobbles up perspective and context. It is as if the media got mired in the introduction of the book rather than launching into a fuller story that gives a sense of the characters and each of their strengths and fallings.
The novel does not duck the unsavory, either. One of the characters owns a brothel and part of the novel is set there. Yet Steinbeck refuses to wade into the voyeuristic as he gives the reader a morality tale steeped in tradition and backdrop.
T. S. Eliot has written in the poem The Waste Land that "these fragments I have shored against my ruins." My wish is that the shored fragments of this latest scandal could be recreated into a builder of context and perspective.

Lawrence to ask state to help fund new bicycle paths
By Chris Fickett
Kansan staff writer
The Lawrence Bicycle Advisory Committee is getting the ball rolling to build more bicycle paths in the city.
The committee has recommended five projects to the city for consideration to apply for funding from the Kansas Department of Transportation.
"They've opened up a lot of funds that previously weren't available," he said.
Clay Comfort, chairman of the committee, said the amount of federal funding for bicycle projects has increased in the last 10 years.
ernment provides 80 percent of the funding, and the local government must provide 20 percent. The Lawrence City Commission will have to decide whether the city will apply for the funding and what projects to include in the submission.

sull was hopeful.
"We have a reasonable expectation that Lawrence will get at least one bicycle project funded,"he said.
The one project that will probably be included on the application to the state is a pathway along Kasold Drive from Clinton Parkway to the South Lawrence Trafficway recreational path.
Comfort said this recommendation was the least challenging of the five because the city already owned the land on which the path would be built.
owned the land on which you park. Comfort said the city would probably approve the Kasold Drive pathway for submission to the state because it had been approved by the city's technical advisory committee. He said the real test would be in Topeka, where legislators will decide who gets the money.
"The uncertainty ahead is: Will it compete at the state level?" he said.

Scott Jacobsen, Littleton, Colo., senior, said building a path along Kasold Drive was a waste of the city's money.
the city's money.
"It's not in the best interest of the community," he said. "Anyone who's at the riding caliber to use those paths would be riding on the highway anyway."
Jacobsen said there were more and better-planned bike lanes in Fort Collins, Colo., and Denver, where he had lived.
Comfort said he hoped other projects would receive attention in the future, although they were not being considered by the city for submission for state funding now.
The committee has been discussing the possibility of a path along the Burlington Northern Railroad tracks from 23rd Street near Haskell Indian Nations University to 11th Street near downtown. The land is not owned by the city, and the committee would have to negotiate with the railroad company to build the path.
Comfort said the reason for including this project in their recommendations was to bring areas where bike paths are needed to the city's attention.
"We wanted to surface all of these projects and keep banging away at them," he said.
Government work guides new counselor
Robinson will use experience from job to assist chancellor
Reggie Robinson returned to the University of Kansas from a five-year stint in the United States Department of Justice without the cynicism and apathy that seems to loom over the federal government.
PETER S. MCKINNEY
By Jason Pearce
Kansas staff writer
Kansan staff writer
Robinson, who is Chancellor Robert Hemenway's counselor on external affairs, witnessed the Justice Department from the inside when he worked in a number of senior posts between 1993 and 1998.
Robinson, who earned his undergraduate and law degrees from the University, attributed current skeptical and apathetic outlooks on government to a basic principle of the country - diversity.
"There are many different people who don't look at things the same way and the issues are complicated," Robinson said. "Our government is a complicated arrangement, but the founding fathers wanted it to be that way."
Robinson joined the Justice Department when he was accepted into the White House Fellows program, which gives people of talent a one-year opportunity to serve in various governmental departments in Washington D.C.
After several interviews, Robinson joined the department as special assistant to Attorney General Janet Reno.
Robinson said he worked on civil rights and youth violence initiatives and he advised Reno on those issues.
"I really immersed myself into youth
violence by calling experts around the country and asking them what I should know and read," he said.
His work in this area helped to pave the way for the crime bill of 1994, which Congress passed and President Bill Clinton approved.
reggie Robinson, the new counselor on external affairs for the chancellor, has just come back from a job with the U.S. Justice Department. Contributed photo.
The crime bill allocated more funds for additional police officers, drug courts and support programs aimed at preventing violence against women.
"Early evaluations of the program say that the involvement of the judge makes a difference in getting people off drugs," he said.
The goal of drug courts is to break the cycle of repeat offenders of illegal drugs, which Robinson said bogs down the judicial process. The courts, which are located in many cities, require drug offenders to seek treatment and to meet with a judge on a regular basis who assesses the progress of the offender.
Programs where he directed efforts to implement drug courts throughout the nation.
While in this position, Robinson also played a role in the department's work on a proposed victim's rights constitutional amendment.
"People don't have a sense of the volume of important decisions that have to be decided everyday by the Justice Department," he said.
"I think the University can have even more of an impact of solving problems around the state."
At the end of his fellowship, Reno appointed Robinson deputy assistant attorney general for the Office of Justice
"I think the crime bill has made a real difference in public safety," he said.
Reggie Robinson counselor on external affairs
During his first year, Robinson also worked on immigration policy issues, writing speeches for the attorney general and managing the judicial selection process for new federal judges.
"I think the University can have even more of an impact of solving problems around the state," he said.
Hemenway said he created the position this semester as a way to better focus on the University's external relations with state government and Kansas residents.
"There is an interest right now in the devolution of federal powers coming back to the state," Hemenway said. "There is a greater emphasis of universities serving the states that they are apart of."
Hemenway said Robinson was a firstrate person who is very intelligent, effective and has a broad vision of the world.
"When you get the chance to hire someone who is truly excellent like Reggie, you jump at the chance," Hemenway said.

Birth control pill remains popular despite other contraceptive choices
Depo-Provera has good, bad points
By Sue Franke
Kansan staff writer
About 90 percent of the women who come to Watkins Memorial Health Center for contraception request "the pill," said Henry Buck, coordinator of gynecology for Watkins.
The combined birth control pill contains the synthetic hormones estrogen and progesterone.
Nicole Feare, Barrington, ill., senior, said that while she was not currently sexually active, if she were, she would use the pill.
"I would use the pill for protection from getting pregnant and for peace of mind," she said.
Buck said the pill was best for persistent, consistent use and that, depending on which pill was used, students could pay as little as $7 for a one-month prescription at Watkins.
Contraceptive Information
However, some women experience side effects from the pill.
Ann Turner, Kansas City freshman, said she was on the pill three years ago and had incredible mood swings, so she stopped taking it.
"If I were prepared to be sexually active, I would go back on the pill and use condoms," said Turner. "I was younger before, but I think I could handle the pill now."
As a second choice, Buck said he was seeing an increase in the

request for Depo-Provera, a progesterone shot taken every three months to suppress ovulation. He said that less than 10 percent of the women who visited Watkins for birth control requested it.
"I'm not saying it should be the No. 2 method," Buck said. "For anyone who wants effective hormonal contraception, I would really talk in favor of the pill."
Buck said side effects such as bleeding between menstrual periods and weight gain could occur with Depo-Provera, but that there were some people who forgot to take pills and some who didn't want to have to deal with taking something every day.
"From an effectiveness point of view, Depo-Provera is on par with combined birth control pills," Buck said.
The Morning After Pill also is available at Watkins but according to a brochure from the American College Health Association, it is emergency contraception and not

meant for repeated use.
"If a condom broke during sexual intercourse or nothing was used, and a woman thinks she could be pregnant, it can be used." Buck said. "There's a two-week period of time around ovulation where the Morning After Pill might be considered."
He said he wanted to emphasize that if a woman requested the Morning After Pill more than once, she needed to get on a form of birth control that would be effective for her.
Mental illnesses and growth research give direction to 77-year-old institute
Life Span investigates the autistic and elderly in addition to children
By Julie M. Sachs
Kansan staff writer
Throughout life. growth never ends.
The belief in continuous human growth molds the existence of the Life Span Institute at the University of Kansas.
Proposed in 1921 as the Bureau of Child Research, the institute focused on the study of mentally disabled children.
Now the range of study at the institute, which is located in the Dole Human Development Center, exceeds child research. The research spectrum has evolved to include the elderly.
"Everybody's life is made up of a whole lot of growth curves," said Stephen Schroeder, director of the institute. "That's really what Life Span studies are about."
Richard Schiefelbusch, who helped begin
the institute and is now retired, said that Life Span brought the mentally disabled into community life and out of institutionalization.
"It was and is a program with a lot of heart," Schieflusch said.
Originally involved in running the speech and hearing clinic at the University, Schiefelbusch eventually became the director of the institute in its earliest days.
"I didn't feel I was an experienced scientist or researcher." Schiefelbusch said. "I didn't know how to secure funds, but one learns those things."
During Schiefelbusch's leadership, the institute received several large grants. Research at the institute has been funded mostly through grants. These grants continue to bring money back to the University, Schroeder said.
In 1990, Schroeder officially replaced Schiefelbusch as the director of the institute. Although the leadership changed, the basis for the institute did not.
Both young and old continue to benefit from the various research and intervention programs of the institute.
"In this program we can get kids to communicate who haven't been communicating at a young age."
Stephen Schroeder
Director
Many autistic children have benefited from the intervention programs of the institute.
"In this program we can get kids to communicate who haven't been communicating at a young age," Schroeder said.
These have been proven to reduce extreme behaviors, he said.
"We've seen kids who are really severe head bangers who bang their heads 1,000 times a day." Schroeder said.
Intervention also has been used to help the elderly.
No research can be done on children without permission from parents.
"We've been able to slow down Alzheimer's in some people by getting them engaged in challenging things," Schroeder said.
University professor researches cancer drugs
Disease fighters found in bark marine creatures
By Julie M. Sachs
Kansan staff writer
A substance found in tree bark may cure cancer.
A mixture in the bark was found
At least that's what some University of Kansas researchers think.
Among the medications that Gunda Georg, professor of medicinal chemistry, and her research staff are testing in Malott Hall is a cancer drug called Poilitaxel.
Poclitakia was isolated from the bark of the pacific yew, a tree that grows in the Northwestern United States. Georg said.
to interrupt the growth of cancer cells.
It took more than 30 years from the original discovery of Pocitaxel to finally put it on the market in the '90s. Georg said that this was because the bark only held a small amount of the drug.
"The first excitement about the drug is that it is effective against ovarian cancer." Georg said.
In addition, breast cancer cells responded to the drug. It's also a promising agent against lung cancer.
Georg and her researchers work to improve Poclitaxel.
"We chemically manipulate it to make it a better drug, to make it more specific for just cancer," she said.
Most cancer agents work throughout the whole body instead of focusing only on the cancer. Georg said most of these cancer agents were toxic to the body.
The body suffers because of these
"Thope that we're able to learn more about more effective treatments of cancer and how to improve those or make them more active."
Emily Reed
Emily Reed Fairfield, Iowa , graduate student
"One compound we are working on comes from a marine organism found off the coast of Australia," Georg said.
The group also works with a compound found in a bacterial substance.
drugs, and the cancer eventually builds up immunity to them.
Besides Poclitaxel, Georg and her researchers also are working with two other anti-cancer agents.
"They're active in tests against cells that exhibit resistance." said Emily Reed, Fairfield, Iowa, graduate student. "We are finding out if it can be used as a drug. It looks to be very active, but you know it's pretty variable."
Georg said some of the research could mean great things for the University of Kansas.
"If we got a patent and license the treatment to a company, money would come back to the University," she said.
Optimism runs high among her researchers that the drugs will one day be successful.
"I hope that we're able to learn more about more effective treatments of cancer and how to improve those or make them more active." Reed said.
Georg said doing the research is worthwhile.
"We'll cross our fingers and hope by the end of the year we'll have it," she said.

Nebraska keeps respect despite defensive lapses
The Associated Press
DALLAS — Just because Louisiana Tech set all sorts of passing records against Nebraska last weekend, don't expect Big 12 coaches to rip all the running
schemes out of their playbooks when their teams play the Cornhuskers.
N
Most coaches said yesterday that they viewed
the 850 yards passing by Tim Rattay and the NCAA-record 405 yards received by Rob Edwards to be more of a display of their talent than the revelation of a gaping hole in the Nebraska defense.
After all, the Cornhuskers still won 56-27 Saturday, and most of the Bulldogs' big numbers came after Nebraska had built a 35-6 halftime lead.

points. It still comes down to who had control of the game and staying ahead."
Colorado led the Big 12 in passing offense in each of the league's first two years but doesn't face Nebraska until Nov. 27. Colorado coach Rick Neueisel doesn't expect the Cornhuskers' defense to be a pushover.
"I know those things will be shored up by the time we get there," he said.

"I think they will go out and improve those things," Snyder said. "I think they know they are very, very capable and will get any mistakes corrected."
also expects new Nebraska coach Frank Solich to have the kinks worked out soon.
Kansas State coach Bill Snyder
The Cornhuskers will need to be fine-tuned by Oct. 3 when the team opens conference play in Kansas City against Oklahoma State.
"I think you have to give Louisiana Tech a lot of credit," said Bob Simmons, Oklahoma State coach. "Does that mean Nebraska is a vulnerable football team? I don't think so."
Texas A&M coach R.C. Slocum had a different reason to swallow hard when he heard what Louisiana Tech had done to the Nebraska defense. The Aggies host the Bulldogs on Sept. 12.

Weisinger: Quarterback transfers to Texas A&M.
On Friday, he enrolled at Texas
A&M and talked to coach R.C. Slocem.
"He told me he wants to play football. He's not really concerned about (what position)," Slocum said. "We talked about the possibility of playing safety. He's receptive to that."
Weisinger, a junior, must sit out this season, leaving him only one year to play for the Aggies.
"What I've done is added a quality senior to our senior class next year." Slocum said.
Neueihisel said that Weisinger never directly gave him a play-memor-I'll-transfer ultimatum, but he knew it was a possibility.
"There were certain people who told me his father indicated that was a possible outcome if I chose the other kid," Neuheisel said. "But when you make decisions that affect your team ... the final analysis has to be about what is best for that position."

Three of this weekend's nine games involving league teams will be televised.

Nebraska receives standout setter
The Associated Press
"My first winter, it was so cold. I was wearing three pairs of jeans and five sweatshirts," Nepo said. "I would come to practice and start stripping away all my clothes. My teammates laughed at me."
These days, it's opposing defenses that Nepo peels off the court. The 5-foot-9 senior setter is a two-time All-American, as chosen by the American Volleyball Coaches Association.
uous. After losing matches last season, she became more assertive and the catalyst for turning what could have been a mediocre season into another good season."
LINCOLN, Neb. — When Fiona Nepo left her native Hawaii to accept a volleyball scholarship at Nebraska, she apparently forgot to read the travel brochure.
She's the leader of a Nebraska team ranked No.5 by the AVCA. The Cornhuskers went 27-7 last fall and missed the Final Four by one game.
Nepo is on target to become Nebraska's school leader for assists. Entering this season, she has 3,293 assists — 493 short of the record held by assistant coach Nikki Best, who played from 1990-93.
Nepo wasn't heavily recruited by Hawaii despite being the 1994 Interscholastic League player of the year at University High in Honolulu.
"She plays with great joy and enthusiasm," coach Terry Pettit said. "That style of play is infec-
Nepo, who plans to return to Hawaii after graduation to become a teacher, has been a link between the islands and Nebraska. The 'Huskers have recruited Hawaiian football and baseball players since Nepo's arrival.
"I wanted to leave Hawaii for college," Nepo said. "I wanted to see another part of the world."
Seminoles drop Aggies
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. Florida State is still in the hunt for the National Championship.
The No. 2 Seminoles opened the 1998 season with a 23-14 win against No. 14 Texas A&M.
The Aggies have been picked to win the Big 12 Conference South Division and led 14-10 at halftime after converting a second quarter fumble into a touchdown.
But they were unable to score in the second half while Florida State added two field goals and a touchdown.
Aggie coach R.C. Slocum entered the game with realistic expectations.
"I see this as an opportunity and to play a team that is arguably the best in college football." Slocum said.
In 1993, Florida State used the Kickoff Classic to get an idea of how good it could be.

Cowboys crave win against Kansas
The Associated Press
ish and a slot in a bowl game
STILLWATER, Okla. —Last year's season opener was vitally important for Oklahoma State. The Cowboys, one week after learning that 10 players were academically ineligible, went on the road and beat Iowa State 21-14.
A loss, given the circumstances, could have been a major setback. But instead, the victory helped propel OSU to an 8-4 fn
slot in a bowl game.
Now the Cowboys are preparing for their 1996 season opener Saturday at Kansas.
And considering OSU plays five of its first six games on

the road, getting off to a good start would be ideal.
"It's going to be real important," Tony Lindsay, quarterback, said yesterday. "This is what's going to tell us where we are. This is going to tell us how our season is going to be."
Coach Bob Simmons, while acknowledging the opener is important, isn't willing to go as
far as his sophomore quarterback. He looks at it as a chance to win a conference game.
요Su
"I'm not going to be the kind of guy that lets this game, win or lose, determine the outcome of our football season," he said.
Simmons uses Missouri as an example. Last year, the Tigers split their first six games. But they gained momentum as the season progressed and went to a bowl.
"It helps (to win), but there's no guarantee you're going to have a great season if you win that first ballgame." he said.
Unlike a year ago, Oklahoma State doesn't have a question mark at quarterback. Lindsay, a sophomore, has established himself as the starter, but Simmons said it is possible that backup Chris Chalupka will play.
The Cowboys are without four players who are now in the NFL — corner back / kick returner/receiver R.W. McQuarters, cornerback Kevin Williams, defensive tackle Jamal Williams and All-American tight end Alonzo Mayes.
But Simmons says his biggest concern is not so much replacing those players as it is maintaining the ingredients that led to last year's success.
"I've told them that last year's team was last year's team," he said. "There are guys that were on that team that are gone. This is this year's team. This is what you're going to be about. You've got to build your own type of credibility.
"The response in my mind should be a good one because we've got guys, if they've learned anything about last year's team and what it takes to get there, and if we repeat that same type of effort, we should have a pretty good season."

No old-timers in secondary
Competition fierce for defensive backs
By Jodi M. Smith Kansan Sportswriter
They are some of the most visible positions on the defense, and if one of them gets burned, everybody knows it.
The defensive backs are four individuals responsible for covering the opposing wide receivers and providing run support.
After ranking in the top 10 defenses in the nation last season, the Jayhawks must work hard to maintain defensive superiority.
"I think we all think we're going to be so much better than last year because we've got so much talent back there," said free safety Chad Coellner.
Talent ves — experience, no.
*With only one starter returning, inexperience could be a factor, but Coellner is not worried.*
"We lack experience, but we've been practicing the same defense for two years now, so I'm sure we're more than ready to step it up." Coellner said.
Lost from last year's secondary are free safety Tony Blevins, strong safety Maurice Gaddie and cornerback Jason Harris—all
fifth-year seniors with three varsity letters.
"That in and of itself has really opened up the whole secondary in terms of competition for positions," said secondary coach Dick Moseley. "That's the good news. They've responded to the challenge and there's a lot of real keen competition going on for those positions."
But the competition, for now, has played itself out with the three replacement players chosen.
Cornerback Jamie Harris, the only returning starter, will be joined in the backfield by Coellner, strong safety Michael Allen and transfer cornerback Muhammad Abdul-Rahim.
Each has a role on the team, said
Coellner.
Harris has been dubbed the "old man." Allen is the communicator, making certain everyone is where they need to be.
tain everyone is where they need to be.
Occlery and Moyhery are the talents.
Coeiner and Muninnah are the talents. Although they have not discussed goals for the year, there are unspoken agreements between the four.
"I think our main goal that we really don't have to talk about is we don't want to blow any assignments," Coellner said. "I know we will give up a lot of long plays because we've been playing more man to man, but that's just expected. We have a lot of goals, we want to make more plays, have more of a turnover ratio. We just want to make sure we're fundamentally sound."

Volleyball team ranked low
Preseason poll doesn't surprise members, coach
Kansan sportswriter
By Laura Bokenkroger
Kansas volleyball coach Ray Bechard said the results from the preseason poll came as no surprise.
Out of 11 volleyball teams in the Big 12 Conference, Kansas
was picked to finish 10th
VOLLEYBALL
After winning just two of 20 conference games last year and finishing tenth in the league, the
Jayhawks were prepared for a low preseason ranking.
"I think a lot of it is based on prior performance," Bechard said. "We lost four players in a conference which is heavy with seniors. I think it's pretty typical if you view a program which is in transition."
As a conference, the Big 12 is one of the strongest in the nation. Four Big 12 teams were picked to finish in the Top 25, including two in the Top 10.
Only the PAC 10 Conference
had more teams ranked in the Top 25, boasting five teams predicted to finish near the top.
Beachard said his team's goals include finishing in the middle tier of the Big 12, an accomplishment which could result in a spot in the NCAA tournament.
Last year, six Big 12 teams participated in the NCAA tournament. The number of teams invited to the tournament increased this year from 56 to 64, making room for eight more teams.
"The top five or six teams in the Big 12 should again be in the top 25 nationally," said Brian Hosfeld. Baylor volleyball coach.
In fact, three Big 12 teams are predicted to contend for the national title: No. 5 Nebraska, No. 9 Texas and No. 12 Colorado.
Predicted to finish first in the league, Nebraska returns five starters from last year's squad. The Cornhuskers finished 27-7 last season, losing at the NCAA Pacific Regional Finals to Long Beach State to end their run for a second national title.

Improved defense important for women's soccer success
Defenders hope to work as a unit to earn shutouts
15
By Brad Hallior
Kansan sportswriter
Opponents attacking the penalty box will be tackled, and Kansas defenders could lead the team in yellow cards again this season.
Defenders are some of the more physical players on the Kansas women's soccer team, and their ability to stop opponents will be important if the Jayhawks are to be successful.
The Jayhawks return the nucleus of a defense that allowed 51 goals last fall (2.55 per game), but coach Dan Magner said he expected those numbers to decline.
"This year, the defenders need to be organized," he said. "To be successful, it will be important that they communicate with each other."
Sarah Korpi, defender, agreed with Magner. She said defensive success would come from working as a unit.
Magner said he wants the defense to be disciplined.
"They need to show controlled aggression," he said. "Times they choose to tackle will be very important. If you are reckless in the back, it can hurt your team a lot. Your decision to go hard must be accurate."
Defensive positions in soccer are not the most glamorous. They rarely score, and their statistics are usually fouls committed and yellow cards earned.
So why play what seems to be a little-respected position?
"It's fun frustrating other players and being able to see the whole field." Korpi said.
Magner said he would like to see defenders get involved in the all-in.
"I like the contact and knocking others down," said Lindsey Loeffler, defender.
defenses and snatch an opportunity to score, something that must be timed correctly.
"You push up only when you see space." Dahle said.
Cynthia Dahle, defender, said she liked to sneak up on opposing
"Shutouts make you feel like you did your job well," Loeffler said.
Dahle, Korpi and Leffler said the most satisfying part of playing in the back was shutting out the other team.
Some defenders said they liked the aggressive nature of the position.
"Stripping the ball from an opponent and knocking them down I enjoy." Dahle said.
An important ally for the defenders in this year's 3-5-2 formation, will be a defensive central midfielder, a position Magner called the great organizer.
"We will rely on whoever is playing there to cut out trouble before it starts, so that person must be a thinker and trying to take away passing lanes or make play for predictable for the other backs," he said.
The defense will get its first regular season tests this weekend against Florida International and a University of Miami team in its first year of Division I soccer.

KU senators worried about ruling
(USPS 650-640)
Wisconsin decision could set precedent
By Seth Jones Kansan staff writer
A ruling involving the University of Wisconsin-Madison has members of Student Senate talking.
On August 10, the 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals upheld the ruling of Southworth vs. Grebe that the student government at Wisconsin could no longer allocate student fees to various organizations that students had voiced complaints against and did not want to support.
The organizations included the campus women's center.
The Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgendered Campus Center and other special interest groups.
The decision has bearing only in the 7th District, which does not include Kansas, but it sets a precedent that concerns senators and University organizations that could be affected.
Allen Omoto, faculty adviser for Queers and Allies, said diverse organizations still should be supported by student fees.
"The University is for all different types of students," he said. "The educational mission of the University goes much further than just textbooks, and tolerance and diversity are important parts of that education. I hope that we would be able to think about special interest when it comes to funding."
Partha Mazumdar, graduate senator, has issued a resolution to oppose the decision made by the court and offer assistance to the Associated Students of Madison to help them
In his resolution, Mazumdar said the court's decision would result in the shriveling and corruption of extracurricular activities on Wisconsin's campus and would compromise core values of open inquiry.
Mazudar didn't think the ruling posed an immediate threat to the University but thought an official stance against it should be taken.

Suspects arrested in auto thefts
By Keith Burner
Kansan staff writer
Although the men were not arrested burglaring students' cars, they could be connected to some of the cases, police said.
More than 40 KU students reported a total of $30,000 in thefts of property from their cars in the first two weeks of the semester. Lawrence police said.
Pollice had not caught anyone burglarizing a car in that time until late Monday and early Tuesday, when five men were arrested in two separate incidents.
At 11:18 p.m. Monday, a 19-year-old Washburn University student saw three men breaking into his
An officer immediately was dispatched.
Shortly after the i n c i d e n t, Lawrence police received a call from a person who was following the car being driven by the suspects.

rex Pinegar, 28, and Christopher Palmer, 22, both Lawrence residents, and Tony Cooley, 29, residency unknown, were charged with automotive burglary, felony theft of property and criminal damage to property.
At 12:10 a.m. yesterday, about an hour after the first arrests, two more men were arrested on similar charges in the 2900 block of Four Wheel Drive.
The damage to the Bronco was valued at $600. A CD player and a cellular phone, valued together at $780, also were stolen from the Lawrence police said.
A security guard from a nearby car dealership saw the men and called the police, who arrested them shortly thereafter, Lawrence police said.
Justin Swisher, 18-year-old Lawrence resident, was arrested on charges of attempted burglary, criminal damage to property and automotive burglary.
In that incident, two men caused $400 in damage while trying to break into a Topeka resident's car.
Lawrence police said Marritt was the lookout for Swisher, who entered two vehicles late Monday and early Tuesday.
Dustin Merritt, 19-year old Lawrence resident, was arrested on charges of aiding and abetting a crime.
Callie Shultz, Lawrence sophomore, discovered that her car had been burglarized Monday. Her driver-side window was broken, and her CD player had been stolen.
"The only thing that would help much would be if more parking were available closer to sorority houses," she said.

The Dow's 288-point resurgence yesterday was proof to some University of Kansas business faculty and students that a normal correction occurred on the stock market.

After dropping 357 points last Thursday and 512
points Monday, the Dow Jones Industrial Average
climbed to 7,827.43 points yesterday.
Mark Hirschey, professor of business, said the recent point drops were not unusual.
"What is unusual is that the stock market has gone up so smoothly without a correction for so long," Hirschey said.
The stock market has had an uninterrupted boom since 1980, he said.
"Stocks typically go up but not in such a straight line," Hirschey said.
In July, the Dow reached a peak of 9,377.97 points but since has dropped more than 19 percent. The Aug. 31 drop was the second largest ever, which was smaller than the $524.26 drop from October of 1997.
"The stock market has a history of those declines every one or two years." Hirschey said.

Man with a handgun robs Shark's Surf Shop
Shark's Surf Shop, 813 Massachusetts St., was robbed shortly before noon yesterday by a man with a handgun.
Police said a man wearing khaki shorts and a light-colored shirt entered the store at 11:50 a.m., brandished a firearm and demanded money.
He then robbed the store, the store's three customers and a 22-year-old KU student who works there and got an undisclosed amount of money, police said.
Police are looking for a white, six-foot-tall, college-aged man with blond hair.

KANSAS
TOPEKA, Kan. — The Kansas Department of Agriculture has closed four meat packing plants in northeast Kansas for failing to meet federal regulations.
Meat packing plants close in north Kansas
The four plants were closed Monday, although one later reopened.
State Agriculture Department representative Carole Jordan said the shutdowns follow a recent U.S. Department of Agriculture review that encouraged state inspectors to take a closer look at plants, especially those in northeast Kansas.
The Winchester plant reopened after correcting its problems.
Inspectors closed Valley Vista Locker Plant and Stoffle Meat Co. Inc. in Topeka, Winchester Locker in Winchester and Steve's Meat Market in DeSoto, Jordan said.
Richard Jones, who was negotiating to buy Valley Vista, said theclosures were fueled by political motives — to keep funding for the inspection program.
Jones said he was not informed of violations and couldn't get consistent answers from the state.
"We have had an inspector come in three days a week over the last 17 years," he said. "All of this time, we were of the opinion that we are maintaining standards. This inspector is to call us on deficiencies."
Boeing president quits after financial losses
There is no indication that any unsale meat products have left plants, Jordan said. She said the inspection program is a preventive one, designed to catch problems so they can be corrected.
NATION
SEATTLE — The head of Boeing's jet
liner business has been ousted because of production snarls and unprecedented financial losses for the aircraft giant, which has had more orders than it can handle.
Ronald Woodard, 55, submitted his resignation as president of the Boeing Commercial Airplane Group after a series of weekend meetings, and it was approved Monday by Boeing's board of directors.
The group has been plagued in the past year by production snarls amid a surge in orders and trouble in bringing out new versions of the popular 737 jetliner.
The problems have resulted in more than $2 billion in charges against earnings and a $178 million loss last year, Boeing's first annual loss in 50 years.
In addition, The Seattle Times reported that a new cost overrun of hundreds of millions of dollars had emerged at Boeing's airplane-parts unit in Wichita, Kan., which reports to Woodard.
Woodard is being replaced by Alan Mulally, head of the company's military and space business.
Woodard is considering his options after being offered another position within the company, Boeing representative Sherry Nebel said. She would not specify the position.
Michigan passes law against assisted suicide
LANSING, Mich. — Michigan's ban on assisted suicide takes effect today, but voters in Dr. Jack Kevorkian's home state could repeal it when they head to the polls in two months.
PETER N. BROWN
Gov. John Engler signed the assisted suicide ban into law in July. The law makes assisting in a suicide a felony punishable by up to five years in prison and a $10,000 fine.
Kevorkian: Vows to continue to assist people with suicides
However, a proposal on the Nov.
3 ballot would
legalize physician
assisted suicide and automatically repeal the ban.
Kevorkian, who has acknowledged attending more than 100 deaths, said he would not change his practice, no matter what law is on the books.
Michigan authorities repeatedly have failed to convict the 70-year-old retired pathologist of any crime in connection with the deaths.
Oakland County Prosecutor David Gorcyca said that because voters had a chance to repeal the assisted suicide ban, he was unsure whether he would pursue any charges against Kevkarian for any deaths Kevkarian is connected with between now and November.
Vietnam dissidents freed in amnesty deal
WORLD
HANOI, Vietnam — Vietnam's best-known dissident was freed yesterday along with at least two Vietnamese-Americans who had been jailed for alleged plots to overthrow the Hanoi government, officials said.
Doen Viet Hoat, who was serving a 15-year sentence for publishing pro-democracy newsletters, was freed from Hanoi Prison and put on a flight to Bangkok. Another top dissident, Nguyen Dan Que, also was being released and was expected to leave the country Monday for resettlement in the United States.
They were freed as part of an amnesty for 5,219 inmates to mark National Day today.
A government source said yesterday that Vietnamese-Americans Jimmy Tran and Ly Tong had been released. In September 1992, Tong — a former South Vietnamese air force pilot — hijacked a Vietnam Airlines jet from Thailand and dropped 50,000 anti-government leaflets on Ho Chi Minh City, formerly Saigon.
He then parachuted to the ground, apparently intending to lead the revolution he hoped would follow, but was instead arrested.
Tran, a Vietnamese-American who also was opposed to the Hanoi government, was sentenced to 20 years in jail in 1993 for plotting to explode bombs in Ho Chi Minh City, the old South Vietnamese capital.
Mob attacks Chinese in Indonesian town
JAKARTA, Indonesia — Hundreds of ethnic Chinese fled a northern Indonesian town yesterday after stone-throwing mobs attacked their shops and homes in a second day of rioting. Residents said riot police shot and killed two people.
Looters, some of them shouting separatist slogans, rampaged through the business district of Lokseumawe, grabbing anything they could: sacks of rice and bottles of soybean ketchup, boxes of noodles, fans and electrical wiring. Many shops were empty, abandoned by their owners.
Ninety fugitives, meanwhile, were on the run after crowds stormed a prison Monday in Lokseumaew in the biggest riots since deadly unrest in May helped oust former President Suharto. Mobs burned buildings and stoned military trucks. Even children looted.
The violence was triggered by bitterness toward the armed forces but ended up targeting Indonesia's Chinese minority, a traditional scapegoat. The Chinese dominate business in Indonesia, which is struggling through its worst economic crisis in three decades.

Senate to start year addressing legislative issues
By Seth Jones
Kansan staff writer
Student Senate's committees will kick off the year tonight with a full docket of organization and legislation.
Before addressing the legislation, all of the committees will meet at 6 p.m. at the Kansas Union Ballroom for a general orientation.
Vice President Scott Kaiser's desk holds several bits of legislation the committee needs to attend to. Among those items, there is a bill to allot more money to SUA to get the MTV show *Lovelite* to come to the University, a bill to fund the Pharmacy Fair and a bill to sponsor this year's American Red Cross Blood Drive
Kaiser said he was pleased with the results of the campaign to recruit more committee members.
The Multicultural Affairs committee has grown from last year's 10 members to this year's 35 members. Kaiser hopes the new members will stick around.
"It will be interesting to see how many students come back to the second and third meetings," Kaiser said. "We really campaigned hard to get all these people to sign up, but if the number erodes after a few meetings, it really has a negative effect on the committees."
For the first time, committee leaders have been elected prior to the first meeting. This year's leaders were elected by last year's committees after Senate voted to change the policy.
Emily Heath, Multicultural Affairs Vice Chairwoman, said she thought the change was a good idea.
"Electing the chairs last year has given the people elected all summer to organize and make plans for what they hope to accomplish." Heath said. "This will help committees move much smoother."

Gerontology degrees available
KU student uses unique program to study aging
By Carolyn Mollett Kansan staff writer
Kristi Williams is a one-of-a-kind student at the University of Kansas this fall.
Williams, Lawrence graduate student, is the only student at the University seeking a Ph.D. in gerontology. She entered the doctoral program this semester, as the school became one of five institutions in the nation to offer Ph.D. studies in gerontology.
"I was interested in learning more about older people," Williams said.
Gerontology is the study of the social, behavioral and physical aspects of aging, said Mary Lee Hummert, gerontology graduate adviser and associate professor of communication studies.
"A gerontology Ph.D. is really targeted at those people who will be out there directing programs aimed at older individuals." Hummert said.
Until now, students could not earn a degree in gerontology at the University.
The program was not easy to establish because the review process was very extensive, Hummert said. The Board of Regents brought three outside reviewers from different universities to assess the proposal before approving it in June 1997.
She said she was pleased the gerontology program received such enthusiastic responses on its evaluation.
"The University and the regulatory system within the state of Kansas is very reluctant to approve new degree programs," Hummert said.
Williams was one of three students admitted to the program this fall. One other student deferred her acceptance until next year, and the other
accepted a fellowship to Boston University.
Hummert said the program was purposefully small this year, but the program is nationally advertised to attract more students next fall.
"Many curriculum details still needed to be worked out, and students need access to office space, advisers and other resources," said Susan Kemper, professor of psychology, who pushed to have the program started. "So we wanted to make sure everything was in place before we enrolled very many students."
The curriculum will be interdisciplinary. Core professors come from communications, psychology, sociology, human development and physical education backgrounds.
"In order to study aging, you really need to come at it from several different areas," Hummert said.
Hummert said students were likely to come from diverse

backgrounds. Williams holds undergraduate and master's degrees in nursing.
"I thought that was something to build on," Williams said. "I think it will be a good background for gerontology."
Williams said she was uncertain of what she would do after she earned her Ph.D., which will take at least three years.
She said she might return to KU Medical Center's nursing program, where she taught as a clinical assistant professor.

Determining whether a student should be classified as a resident or a non-resident is not always as simple as looking at an address.
EVERYTHING BUT ICE
For that reason, the University of Kansas Registrar's office has developed a policy specifically designed for students who had been lifelong residents of Kansas but had moved away less than a year before to applying for admission and would otherwise be classified as non-residents.
The new policy was spurred by the special problem of two students that was brought to the attention of Richard Morrell, University Registrar.
"The daughters were classified as non-residents, but they had lived in Kansas their whole lives except for those nine months." Morrell said. "We thought that was an injustice and pointed it out at the Board of Regents meetings."

As a result of the efforts, a grace period of 12 months was developed for students who are lifelong residents of Kansas, Morrell said. The new residency rule states that students still may be considered residents if they have lived out-of-state for less than 12 month-

Although the University Registrar's office monitors enrollment and residency requirements, Morrell said the new policy was something extra that was done to benefit students, even a small number of them.

Even though the policy does not

Under the old residency requirements, the twins would have been classified as out-of-state students because they had not lived in Kansas for one year prior to application for admission.
The old rule: Students must live in Kansas for one year prior to applying for admission to be eligible for resident status.
Morrell said that because the grace period policy wouldn't apply to many students, it probably made it more attractive to the Kansas Board of Regents
prior to applying for admission.

"The Board of Regents liked it and passed it at last year's legislative session." Morrell said. "It affects only four or five students here a year, so it doesn't make a great impact on the state budget, but it makes it a little more fair for some students."
NEW RESIDENCY RULE
The new rule: Students who have been lifelong residents of Kansas but move away from the state for less than 12 months prior to applying for admission, may still be considered residents if they live in Kansas at the time of application to the University.

Libraries need handy book drops
The University of Kansas libraries should step up their attempts to implement book drops on campus.
Most libraries offer book drops that don't require patrons to go into the library. Watson Library, the most heavily used on campus, does not offer this service and it should.
Returning a book quickly is difficult. Someone returning a book must find a parking space, often far away, and walk to Watson's entrance. There is a book drop at the back door of the library, but few use it. Both drops require the climbing of stairs or traveling up ramps. This can be a hassle for people with disabilities.
A book drop along Jayhawk Boulevard and in both Unions would offer convenience for students and help the library get books back into circulation faster.
Watson should have a place away from the building to return books.
William Crowe, dean of the libraries, is aware of this. He said the libraries have discussed putting book drops at various campus sites, but that there are a few concerns.
Many book drops, Crowe said, are hard on the spines of books. As they fall on one another, the books tend to get damaged.
Crowe also said that a book drop on Jayhawk Boulevard could cause traffic problems as cars stop in front of it.
These are valid concerns, but can be easily addressed.
Library, which has a book drop on the street, said damage occurs, but it is not severe. The employees said the convenience to patrons outweighs the minimal damage.

The traffic problem seems the most valid. But if the library put the drop on the road next to the parking areas in the back of Watson, cars could slip in and out without disrupting traffic
Crowe said that book drops were on a list of things to do but that they were not a priority and there was no timetable for implementation.
With more than one million books each year checked out by students, there is a need to get books back into the library as soon as possible. Book drops would do that.
It's good the libraries are a aware that students want book drops,but now they need to create them.

KU should continue to attract minorities
This fall, the University of Kansas welcomed a record number of minority students. Last year, KU minority-student enrollment was about 9 percent. This year, that number is expected to be at 10.6 percent. This is clearly a step in the right direction, and the University should be commended for its efforts to create a more diverse campus. These changes don't occur by accident.
Chancellor Robert Hemenway has made it a top priority to recruit minority faculty members and bring in more minority students. Robert Page, Coordinator of Multicultural Recruitment in the Office of Admissions is one of the people working toward that goal. He attributes the increase to two primary factors: Financing and community.
When potential students weigh
A record number of minority students came to the University this fall.
their options, the ability to receive financial aid greatly increases the chances they will come — but no additional money was pegged for minority students this year. The students the University sought were more competitive — many of them National Merit Scholars — and as a result, a record number of minority students received scholarships.
primarily different than themselves. Building a sense of community among minority students is important because it is easy to feel out of place. The Office of Admissions, the Office of Minority Affairs and several minority-oriented organizations have focused on reaching out to minority freshmen through programs such as Colors of KU and Hawk Link.
Money is important, but the issue minority students regard most highly when deciding on a university is community. Minority students face the challenge of trying to identify with a student body that is
these programs, Page said, were the core reason that the University was becoming more competitive in attracting minority students. There always will be a desire to see the University become more diverse, but recent efforts to meet that challenge are impressive. If KU continues to embrace minority students, this campus will be much more palatable to all students.

Perspective
Critics of the President should look in the mirror
I would like to go on record here and now as saying that, as far as consenting adults are concerned, I don't care where Bill Clinton puts his son's.
puts his penis.
I figure that that is among him, Hillary, his con-
JANE WATSON
Figure that that science, and maybe his spiritual beliefs. If I cheat on my partner, that's between us. It is not the business of my classmates, co-workers or clients, and Clinton's indiscretions, however morally bankrupt, are not salient to his iob as president.

I really try to avoid the news, but to my understanding, there's been no charge of sexual coercion on his part. At the most, his behavior was tasy and inappropriate. It is not cause, however, for impeachment.
As for the so-called perjury, the charges brought by Paula Jones were dismissed, and whether he had a consensual sexual relationship with Lewinsky should never have been a part of the proceedings. Charging him with perjury is tantamount to the police harassing someone for no reason and then charging him with resisting arrest when he wishes to know why the police are there to begin with.
None of his behavior is new to the office. Nixon lied, and his lie was about criminal activity. JFK apparently schuptupped just about any woman who stood still. Thomas Jefferson might have had an affair with a female slave. Not only did Franklin Roosevelt likely have an extramarital affair, but Eleanor may have, too. Frankly, I'm surprised that there's anyone left who thinks that there was any honor left to the office of President of the United States.
office of. However, I'm not surprised that the ones who do are younger than 23. In the last dozen years I've registered people to vote in poor urban areas, attended multiple Kansas City, Mo., city council meetings, and worked on several political campaigns. In all of that time, I've not encountered even a handful of politicians in person or by reputation
that I trust, like, or would want to spend time with.
In early 1992, I was flipping channels when I stopped on a man making a speech. He was good-looking and saying all of the right things. I quickly figured out that he was running for president, and by the end of the speech I found out that, although I agreed with everything he said, I didn't trust him an inch. I voted for him twice and I still don't trust him. He was just less distasteful to me than the other options.
I certainly don't approve of his behavior. Frankly, if I were his wife I'd be at my mother's house. As a husband, a father, and a man, his behavior is morally reprehensible. But as president, I take much more issue with his backing out of campaign promises and using the powers granted to him during his first term to suck up to moderates in order to get relected.
Honestly, I don't feel that Clinton is any more or less honest than any other president, just that we've gotten consistently better at uncovering dirt during the last 30 years. I also feel that all this prurient attention being paid to the president's life is in the same vein as the tabloid journalism that was so vilified this time last year after the death of Princess Diana. The only difference is that this is on the front page of The New York Times rather than The National Enquirer.
I propose that if we truly think Clinton's behavior is inimical to our national ethics, that we instead examine ourselves and our own standards.
Frankly, whether or not we voted for Clinton our toleration of this type of behavior among our political officeholders is why a man like him could become president in the first place. If his behavior and ethics were really beyond the pale of the average politician, he never would have gotten this far in the first place.
So the next time you feel tempted to rail on the president, turn off the news and examine yourself. How many of the things he's accused of would you do if you thought you wouldn't get caught or you became President? If the answer is yes to any, maybe Kenneth Starr should be knocking on your door before you go into politics, too.

Retaliation bombings help curb other violence
It seems rather odd to me that some people think it's wrong for the U.S. government to destroy a chemical weapons factory and a terrorist base belonging to the terrorist group that

inese terrorists killed and wounded thousands of innocent civilians. The arguments used to criticize the actions of our government seem even stranger. They include accusing people in the government of harboring racial hatred and a desire for revenge.

For one thing, the military did not order the attacks. The order came from the president.
Some have said that the president ordered the military strikes because he didn't want to give the terrorists a fair trial. Two of the people suspected of involvement in the bombing of the U.S. embassy in Kenya, however, have been extradited to the United States to stand trial.
All of this criticism of our government's response to terrorism is having the effect of trying to bring the credibility of our own government down to the same low level as that of the terrorists.
it's important to remember that the terrorists are murderers. They don't represent the majority of people in that region. The people who live in the Middle East are victims of terrorists' murderous tendencies more than anyone else, so the terrorists should not be thought of as some sort of hard luck, third world heroes.
The embassies in Africa were bombed for no other reason than to help a bloodthirsty millionaire increase his political influence among political extremists in the Middle
Linya's ruler al-Qaddafi is a perfect example. Before the U.S. Air Force bombed some sense into him, it seemed as if he was never going to stop his increasingly violent attacks on Americans. Now, he keeps a sizable distance between himself and the actions of terrorists, even if he does sympathize with them.
The terrorist bombings planned by Osama bin Laden didn't strike much of a blow against what he calls evil America. This terrorist attack slaughtered hundreds of African women and children and wounded thousands more. He possibly targeted the embassies in Africa because he knew that people in America were so used to scenes of awful suffering in Africa that the attack on the embassies would not create enough outrage to prompt an overwhelming military response.
East.
We live in a violent world. If rogue nations or people like bin Laden think they can get away with violent acts, they will carry out their plans to commit such crimes.
On the other hand, western nations tried for years to bring Serbian leader Radovan Karadzic under control with sanctions, threats and attempts to put him on trial. Meanwhile, the Serb-led genocide of Muslims in Bosnia has continued. [2]
Although it's necessary to examine the actions of our government, insulting members of the administration and the military will only serve to weaken the resolve of the president to protect the lives of innocent civilians in the future.
Besides that, there really is no doubt about who bombed the embassies. Bint Laden has openly bragged about his desire to kill Americans, and members of his organization have openly discussed their involvement in the bombings.

Feedback
Sorority or not, tolerance needed
As I read the opposing views of KU's sorority rush in Friday's paper, I was reminded not of my own Rush experience, nor of the preconceived notions about sorority girls I once had, but rather I was reminded of a message that I received while attending KU's summer orientation. The message was one of tolerance, of learning to accept those that are different from you and appreciating instead of condemning that which makes them unique.
I pledged a chapter and couldn't be happier with my decision. But don't think I'm writing this merely as a defense of the young woman who wrote about her rush experience, or as a criticism of the article published that compared sororities to cults. I am writing to encouraging all students to find their niche. Everyone has the right to find the environment that suits them the most adequately.
If all students did was go to class everyday, this school would lose its flavor. KU would no longer be the institution of higher learning that offers a ballet, a football game, a concert, a poetry reading,
and a party all in the same eve-
ning. It would only be school,
and how many people really
come to Lawrence for that?
Student involvement and the desire to make a difference are two components that help make this university one of the best.
I know I won't like or understand everyone, but I will try my hardest to accept everyone. So whether you're a musician, a technician, a basketball player, an educator, and yes even a sorority girl, I hope you find something that makes you happy.

Child abductors pleaded guilty, face prison time
Kidnappers receive sentence
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Kan. — A 19-year woman who said she just wanted someone to love her and not leave like everybody else was sentenced yesterday to nearly six years in prison for kidnapping a newborn baby girl from a hospital.
Amanda Tull pleaded guilty to kidnapping on June 1. Her boyfriend, Buddy Hall, 31, pleaded guilty to being an accessory after the fact to kidnapping. He also was sentenced to two years and three months in prison.
Neither Tull nor Hall, both of Sheridan, Mo., will be eligible for parole under the sentences handed down by U.S. District Judge Kathryn Vratiol.
Both defendants have received
psychological treatment in the past. Vratil recommended that they serve their time at a federal medical facility. The final decision will be made by the federal Bureau of Prisons.
Tull had faced life in prison on the kidnapping charge, and Hall could have been sentenced to 15 years. Vrattl also sentenced Tull to five years supervised release after her sentence is served and Hall to three years following his sentence.
The baby's mother, Trish Nicole Shockey, was in court yesterday with seven-months-old Carlie.
"To me, the sentences are not long enough. They put us through a lot," Shockev said.
in exchange for the guilty pleas, the government agreed not to oppose a request that the couple be sentenced at the low end of the sentencing guidelines.
Those guidelines allow the defendants to be given a lesser prison sentence if a kidnapping victim is released within 24 hours of being taken. The government had objected to the rule being applied to
this case because the baby was not released but tracked down by the FBI 23 hours after the kidnapping.
Vratil overruled the government's objection and said she would allow the reduction in sentence. However, Vratil sentenced the defendants on the higher end of the sentencing guidelines because she said it would allow them more time to get the treatment they needed.
Tull told the judge that she took the baby from the University of Kansas Medical Center Jan. 28 because she wanted someone to love her without question. Tull was on probation for a misdemeanor conviction at the time of the kidnapping.
Mike Harris, a federal public defender representing Tull, said his client had received extensive counseling from the time she was 12 into her mid-teens because she had been sexually abused. He said Tull wanted a baby so that she could create the loving family that she never had as a child.
Hall's attorney, Carl Cornwell,
hall his client has psychological
problems. He spent almost a year in 1986 being treated for anger control at the state hospital at St. Joseph.
Cornwell said Hall was afraid of Tull and was persuaded into taking part in the kidnapping.
Both defendants had been given psychiatric examinations and were found competent to stand trial before they entered their guilty pleas.
"I've got no problem with the sentence," Harris said. "Buddy is comfortable with it, too. He's just wants to get help and put this thing behind him."
Prosecutors said that Tull was the mastermind behind the kidnapping and that she told Hall to wait in the delivery waiting room of the hospital while she took the baby.
Hall drove Tull and the baby to St. Joseph, where they bought gasoline and baby supplies and then drove to their residence in Sheridan.
The next day, they drove to her mother's home in High Ridge, Mo., south of St. Louis, where FBI agents, alerted by a tip, arrested them.

California fires start dry season
The Associated Press
NUEVO, Calif.  Wildfires started by lightning and stiff wind burned untamed throughout California yesterday after destroying dozens of homes and charring nearly 30,000 acres of brush and timber.
The blaze covered 6,000 acres in the Juniper Flats area of Riverside County, destroying 100 structures, including 26 homes.
"We could just look out our front door and see the fire. All of the brushes near us were on fire," said Ethel Mier as she stroked her husband's hand after their escape Monday night.
"All we were able to grab was a picture of her and her father," Don Mier said.
The blaze was 20 percent contained by fire lines yesterday and was being fought by nearly 600 people.
There were no reports of injuries in the Juniper Flats fire about 80 miles east of Los Angeles. However, a jail inmate was killed and a firefighter was seriously injured Monday at Palmdale, in Los Angeles County, when a truck went out of work and overturned as it carried at least 11 prisoners to help fight a fire.
The National Weather Service warned that the risk of fires will continue to climb, with high temperatures and thunderstorms expected to continue this week in Southern California.

Serbs angered by killings
Act boosts support for crackdown against Albanian rebels in Kosovo
The Associated Press
BELGRADE, Yugoslavia — Allegations that Albanian guerrillas in Kosovo killed and incinerated the bodies of 22 Serbian civilians have prompted calls for even tougher action against the rebels and rallied Serbs behind President Slobodan Milosevic.
The allegations, reported extensively by Serbian media, have further deepened enmities and likely diminished prospects for a compromise between the government and the rebels.
More than ever since Serbian security forces launched a crackdown against the secessionist Albanian guerrillas in February, Milosevic's government is intent on crushing the rebellion.
romislav Nikolic, a Serbian vice president, said Sunday that security forces would clear
Kosovo of any armed bandit who was ready to shoot at citizens and violate public law and order.
Milosevic, who rose to power by pledging to defend the rights of the Serbian minority in Kosovo, now appears to enjoy even greater public support for cracking down on the Kosovo Liberation Army.
Serbian police said Saturday they had discovered a crematory in the southern village of Klecka, where ethnic Albanians reportedly had burned the bodies of at least 22 Serbs.
The allegations were the latest in a series of claims of atrocities by both sides since ethnic Albanians began fighting for an independent Kosovo six months ago.
The Kosovo Liberation Army has denied responsibility for the killings.
While not independently confirmed, the slayings and the subsequent media campaign have united most Serbian political parties and public figures in condemning the Albanians' fight for independence.
They also have generated fresh support for Milosevic's determination to crush the resistance once and for all in volatile Kosovo, where Albanians outnumber Serbs 9-to-1.
Serbs consider Kosovo the cradle of their culture and particularly are sensitive about the province's future.
The government, which has long accused the West of anti-Serb bias in the conflict, now is seeking Western support in what it calls a fight against terrorism.
"Serbia is facing a tough battle. We must move into action," said Milovan Bojic, a Serbian vice president, suggesting an all-out drive to break the rebel resistance.
Bojic demanded that the United States should politically, militarily and morally support Serbia's offensive against the militants.
Missile threat worries Japan
Tension mounts with military action
The Associated Press
TOKYO — Tokyo issued a formal protest yesterday against North Korea for firing a missile over Japan and sent military ships to the spot in the Pacific Ocean where it was believed to have landed.
The missile launch Monday renewed worries about security in Asia and raised serious questions about the adequacy of Japan's missile detection and anti-missile systems.
Government representative Sadaaki Numata said yesterday that Japan did not know about the missile launch until it was informed by the U.S. military. He added that Japan had no independent monitoring system to warn of the launching.
Numata also said Japan had frozen the $1 billion it had committed to a project with the United States, South Korea and Europe to supply North Korea with two nuclear energy reactors. And sending food aid to the exclusive communist state was now more difficult, he said.
"Japan's people are extremely anxious, and I am deeply worried." Prime Minister Keizo Obuchi was quoted by Kyodo News agency as saying.
"Our relations with North Korea are going to be more severe than they have ever been," said Foreign Minister Masahiko Komura after attending a special Cabinet meeting, where the missile topped the agenda.
Komura said the missile could help speed up Japan's long-
planned joint development of a missile defense system with the United States. Japan, which greatly relies on the United States for its defense, has no missile defense system.
The United States is demanding a regular inspection of a construction site in North Korea to prevent it from being used to develop nuclear weapons, a South Korean government source said.
North Korea remained mute on the missile in its official news being monitored by the Radiopress agency in Tokyo.
Defense tends to be a sensitive topic for many Japanese, who have bitter memories of extreme militarism during World War II. The pacifist movement is a powerful lobby group in Japan, and the slightest sign of heightened military might draws nervous protest from Asian neighbors.

Restaurant waste gets a second life
Recycling program extends usefulness of leftover cuisine
By Liz Wristen
By Liz Wrister
Kansan staff writer
Leftover black bean quesadillas, remnants of vegetable penne and dollops of guacamole dip will never see a landfill if Chuck Magerl has anything to say about it.
it. Magerl, the owner of Free State Brewery, 636 Massachusetts St., has been composting meal leftovers and paper products from his restaurant for the past two years. He began the waste treatment program because of his concern for future generations with regard to the environment.
"I think that most people don't think about or care about something when they are done with it," Magerl said. "It's the out of sight, out of mind kind of thing, and even if landfills have free space, they still have limited capability."
Megan Pope, Wichita junior, said that she ate at Free State often and that she appreciated knowing that what was left on her plate was put to good use.
"I think that Free State is a really good restaurant, and I'm really glad that they choose to compost their leftovers," she said.
Magerl has operated Free State Brewery for nearly 10 years. His knowledge of composting and natural resource conservation began when he was a pre-med biology student at the University of Kansas.
He left the University before graduating and became the manager of the Community Mercantile, 901 Mississippi St., where he learned about natural vegetation. Magerl returned to the University to obtain a degree in water resources before opening the brewery in February 1989.
Magerl has been composting household waste for the past 20-25 years as a part of his daily life. Now, he incorporates composting into his business life as well.
图
"By taking the materials, like vegetation, using them and then returning them to the earth through composting, we are helping the soil, as well as completing a biological and energy cycle," Magerl said.
Composting at the brewery began after Magerl remodeled and expanded the restaurant's kitchen. The expansion allowed him to install a piece of equipment, called a pulper, which replaced the garbage disposal.
The pulper acted like a giant food processor, Magerl said. It takes waste materials, such as food and paper products, and chops them into smaller pieces. The pieces are then run through a water removal process that extracts most of the liquids and then ejects a moist, chopped waste product. The waste product is then dumped into large trash containers before being removed from the building.
The waste is loaded into Magerl's truck and is taken to a farm on the east side of Lawrence, where it is unloaded at the site and dumped into the ground. Magerl said he unloads 250 to 300 pounds of compost material daily.
The image provided is too blurry to accurately recognize any text or details.
"The focus of composting is the idea of completing a cycle, so that what we are doing in the food business is associated with agricultural products," Magerl said.
The idea to compost leftovers from the brewery came when Magerl met John Pendleton, a family farmer and the owner of Pendleton's Country Market, 1446 E. 1850 Road. Pendleton told Magerl he had space set aside for composting, and the restaurant owner took him up on the offer.
Magerl said that he did not get paid to compost on the Pendleton farm but that he did save money by composting.
When the city of Lawrence recently started cardboard recycling efforts, Magerl was able to save on the amount of boxes he was sending to the landfills.
Through composting and recycling cardboard, Magerl has reduced the amount of his waste flow to the landfills by nearly 80 percent.
"We are hoping to achieve the recognition that alternatives do exist for managing our natural resources," Magerl said. "We need to value those resources through preservation, and not treat the waste as trash."

Ballroom dancing enjoys an upswing
More KU students learn to cut a rug
By Angela Johnson
Kansan staff writer
Students are getting into the swing of things.
The ballroom dancing club, now in its fourth year of giving free dance lessons, has seen participation double since last year, said club instructor Abby Kepka.
"The first time we met (this year), over 100 people came," she said.
why is there a growing popularity in ballroom dancing on campus? It is mainly due to the revival of swing music, Jamie Rocks, Chicago senior, said.
"Music always has a way of coming back around, like fashion," Rocks said. "It's come back because the music makes people feel good. The swing bands today just undate it with our technology."
Rocks attended last Sunday's ballroom dancing club for the first time. She said learning how to swing dance wasn't difficult.
"It's just so fun," she said. "I'm not that good of a dancer, but I'm doing better than I did country-line dancing. The music just
lifts mv spirits."
Students can join the club for free at anytime during the semester, Kepka said. The club meets from 2 to 4 p.m. Sundays in the Kansas Union Ballroom.
Kepka said that the club taught all types of formal dancing. The club teaches more than ballroom dancing.
"We teach swing, the cha-cha, the rumba, the waltz and the fox trot," Kepka said.
but swing has been used in Club instructor Tesla Hostetler said that current bands, such as Squirrel Nut Zippers and The Cherry Poppin' Daddies, were a major influence on the new swing
movement and that the media had made the dance visible again.
But swing has been the thing.
"We have a lot of people who come in and want to try swamp because they've seen a movie with swing dancing in it, or they've seen the GAP commercial." Hosteller said.
interaction. "People are tired of dancing alone and not knowing what they're doing," Kepka said. "The occasional bump and grind will bring people together temporarily, but with swing dancing, you can meet new people and have fun."

Kepka said that a fairly even number of men and women came to dance but that guys generally were more reluctant to join.

"Everyone's learning together," she said. "It's a whole room of people starting out, and most people don't come in with a partner."
Hostetler said students do not need any prior dancing experience or a partner to join.
semester progressed.
"Large groups of people are always coming and going." Moore said. "As the semester goes on, schoolwork gets harder. People have other stuff to do. By the middle of the semester, we usually have a good group who's going to stick with it."
Club instructor Mike Moore said that participation usually dropped as the semester progressed.
The ballroom dancing class, offered in the Health, Sport and Exercise Science department, has also been popular with students.
"Girls are taught to dance more than guys," she said. "Guys are usually wooden. There are some who will come out here and just start dancing. Others will take all semester, then one day they'll just get it."
Jim LaPoint, associate professor of Health Sport and Exercise Science, said the class was full this semester and last semester.
it's up to young people to keep swing dancing alive, Kepka said.
"For some reason, we only had one section of the class this semester, and it has closed," LaPoint said. "Last semester, we had three sections, and they were all closed with 50 or more students."
"If senior citizens are the only people swing dancing, it won't survive," she said. "If you learn the technical aspects of it, you can dance with anybody. Nobody can say they can't dance. We all have the underlying ability. We're all exhibitionists."
Black Union battles issues facing race in the future

political activity
The University's current African-American students are in a different environment. They battle issues that are not as clear
cut as those of their predecessors. One of their main problems in recent years has been apathy. This year, the group is looking to change that.
when this was started in 1968, you definitely saw there was a need for it on campus," said the group's Vice President Conway Ekpo, Lawrence senior.
The group's adviser Julius Williams said when he was a college student in the late 1960s, African-American students could not even walk into the school cafeteria without feeling self-conscious. He said all the students would stop talking and stare.
"When the Black students walked in, you could hear a pin drop at the back of the cafeteria," he said.
Ekpo said the issues minorities face today, such as economic inequality, are sometimes less obvious than the overt racism African-Americans faced every day in the 1960s.
"After we got ourselves established, that level of consistency was fine," said the group's Trea
surer DeLano Sheffield, Topeka senior. "With all that in part, there are still problems."
One of the problems is the ambiguity of some of those issues.
"The students that are coming in now are more serious about taking care of business."
"I think the issues are still there, but they're not as straight for ward any more," said
Dion Jones BSU president
the group's President Dion Jones,
St. Croix, Virgin Islands, senior.
The apathy that BSU has encountered has meant low membership, another issue the group will tackle this year. And if one were to judge by its first meeting, the group has been successful.
Ekpo said in 1995 that attendance at the group's meetings hovered near 12-15 people. At the first meeting of this year, held Monday night, he estimated there were 100.
The leaders are hopeful that their freshmen members will help turn around the organization.
"The students that are coming in now are more serious about taking care of business," Jones said.
Freshmen and sophomore members will be more involved in the group this year with the reinstitute of the residence hall chapters.
Monica Lewis, Kansas City, Kan., freshman, is involved in the group's government at Hashinger Hall. She said the branch governments should help attract freshmen to the organization.
In the early 1990s, Ekpo said the individual residence halls had African-American hall caucuses with their own representatives who relayed information to the group's government. The program ended about four or five years ago. Leaders hope that restarting this program will induce younger members to take an active role in the organization.
we just need to get people involved and keep them involved," she said.
when they go through the whole process of planning an event, they take ownership in it," Jones said.
Ekpo said he noticed the difference between the group at the University and the organizations at other schools at an annual Big 12 Black Student Union conference.
"In the past, all the other schools seemed to have an obvious love and devotion to their BSUs," he said.
At Monday's meeting, Ekpo led chants in an attempt to energize and unite the members.
Jones said African-American students needed to be united to provide a support system for one another.
"We should be taking care of each other," he said, "providing the home-away-from-home feeling."

KU women goalies use fancy footwork

Kansan sportswriter
It has been said that goalkeepers are ordinary athletes who do extraordinary things.
Take Jen Fecke, Burnsville, Minn., junior, and starting goalkeeper on the Kansas women's soccer team.
On Sept. 14, 1997, she was in the nets for the Jayhawks in a Big 12 Conference match against the Baylor Bears in Waco, Texas. Fecke faced more than 40 shots, and only one got by, but the Jayhawks lost a heartbreaking 1-0 in overtime.
She said that was her most memorable game.
"I had a shutout going into the second overtime," she said. "I faced a lot of shots that game."
Katie Garrity, Southlake, Texas, sophomore, has vivid memories of her most memorable game in the nets, a regional semifinal win two years ago for her club team, the D'Feeters.
Garrity said she made a more saves in the final minutes to preserve the 1-0 win.
"We were winning 1-0, and I saved a penalty kick, and on the rebound, I made another save," she said.
Betsy Pollard, Sioux City, Iowa, junior, remembers a State Cup match for her club team, the Sioux City Storm. Pollard
was the winning goalkeeper in a tension-filled, penalty-kick shootout.
This year, the Jayhawks have added a goalkeeping coach, Kevin Blokker, to help fine-tune the goals.
Blokker knows about playing goalkeeper at Division I level, having played goale for the University of San Francisco.
Blokker said successful goalkeepers need great footwork. During the first few preseason
practices, Blokker would not allow the goalkeepers to dive Instead, he made them rely on moving their feet to make a save.
Blokker said he was happ with the way the Jayhawk goalies were coming along.
"All the goalkeepers came into this season in shape," he said. "Everything is polished now, and on top of that, I think they all have above-average catching ability and hands. All of them have the natural ability to be a
great goalkeeper. Their footwork and intensity at practice is what is going to take them to the next level."
Having a new goalkeeping coach for the third consecutive year could have been hard on the goalies, but Blokker said they were adapting.
"They came in with an open mind, and it's made them better," he said. "They don't have to do everything I suggest, but when I make suggestions, it's just to make them better."
Fecke, Pollard and Garrity all said that playing goalkeeper is a rewarding position.
"When you do something good, you are considered a hero," Garrity said.
"There aren't many positions you can be either a hero or goat," agreed Feke.
"When you make a save that nobody expects you to make, it makes playing goalie worthwhile." Pollard said.
The three goalkeepers all agreed that the most satisfying part about playing goalkeeper is posting shutouts.
But Blokker said there was more to being a great goalkeeper than earning shutouts and making saves.
"It's not enough at this level to make a big save because any keeper can do that," he said. "Making it look easy makes you a top collegiate goalkeeper."
Kansas seniors lead by example

School is in session for the Kansas line-backers.
with four seniors occupying the linebacker positions, each practice is like a class.
Joining last year's starters Pat Brown and Steve Bratten are J. J. Johnson and Hanson Caston. They may be new to their starting positions, but they have plenty of game experience.
"It is a definite bonus to us just for the fact that they're experienced players and mature," linebackers coach Mark Farley said. "They know what to expect. You don't have to get them ready for the crowd scene and all the things that go along with game day. They've already been through that. It's just another day for them."
"I think being together for the previous year makes a difference in that we know how each other plays, how we can depend on each other," Brown said. "I think that's a big part."
With this experience comes a teaching role - teaching those below them what it takes to start for a Division I football team. They also must groom players to take the lead at the end of this season.
And not only are they used to game day, they're used to each other.
"The best thing about having seniors for the younger guys is that the younger guys can learn from the older guys." Farley said. "We coach them, but it's a great learning experience, a learning curve if you will from the seniors to the guys below them. They can learn from the older guy by watching him play, by watching his mistakes and how he prepares from week to week for a game."
The older players are happy to provide this service.
"They ask a lot of questions, and we're always happy to give them answers, to see if they're doing something wrong, or just better that can help them get a little better." Brown said.
There's also pressure that accompanies a position such as linebacker, pressure to be a team leader.
"I accept it," Brown said. "I just try to lead by example. There's no need to talk a lot, just lead by example."
With their experience also comes confidence. Having played together for four years now, this unit is ready for a stellar senior season.
"They're confident," Farley said. "I don't want to say they're going to go out and say they're going to beat somebody, but they're confident in their ability, confident in how they fit into the defense."

Bob Frederick banks on gridiron gamble to payoff
The Kansas Athletics Department is betting on the football team.
On Saturday, when you step through the new iron gates in Memorial Stadium and walk along a renovated concourse, buy concessions at new vending areas and use the new restrooms, you'll see the first half of the
$29.5-million pigskin wager.
The reason for the gamble? Revenue.
Matt Friedrichs
"We have to get to a place where we fill the stadium," said Bob Frederick, athletics director.
The stadium has the glazed appearance $12 million dollars will buy—and another $17.5 million of work will be visible next fall.
Both Frederick and Chancellor Robert Hemenway are keenly aware of the need to have a revenue-generating football team to support the other varity sports, such as soccer, volleyball and tennis which don't sell many tickets or attract the big corporate sponsors.
sponsors.
"The one area that has the greatest potential for growth in income is football," Frederick said.
He wants people to attend games, needs people to attend games and hopes the new amenities — and a winning team — will fill the stands.
frederick would like to se2 nalf of Kansas students at a game. He would sleep better if they attended because he would be filling the seats and paying for the big investment the athletics department has made in the past five years.
Women's soccer and crew still are fledgling sports. The athletics department is spending $3.5 million at Allen Field House, $3.8 million on a volleyball practice/c competition building (also to be used by women's basketball) and $1.8 million to upgrade Hoglund-Maupin Stadium.

There are no more seats available for men's basketball games, as much as alumni would like to buy tickets, and the only way to make more money from the program is to raise ticket prices — never a popular option.
sions areas in the field house are needed improvements but won't generate new income.
it is true that women's basketball has become more visible with the advent of women's professional leagues in the United States.
But neither baseball or women's basketball has the popularity, the fan awareness or the ability to sell tickets like Division I football.
And baseball could ride the coattails of Mark McGwire and Sammy Sosa.
Coach Terry Allen probably hasn't felt the pressure yet. This is his second season, and last year the team surprised people.
But the team must move from surprising people to regular bowl appearances.
people to a new press box and luxury suites ($14.5 million) will cast their shadow on the Kansas coaches and players on the sideline next fall.
And a $3 million television screen will make the stadium look a little more like the Strip in Las Vegas.
To capitalize on the investment, Kansas needs more than new toilets, freshly painted walls and new elevators according to Hemenway.
"If you have successful teams, people will come out and watch them," he said.
If Allen's team remains mired in the lower half of the Big 12 North Division, who will buy tickets for a regular seat on the bleachers?
But if the team doesn't win, who will pay $22,000 to $50,000 a year for one of the 36 luxury suites?
Frederick has calculated the odds and appears confident that the timing and the coach are right.
He has placed his bet. Allen has prepped the team. Now it's time for the players to produce and the fans to determine whether Kansas athletics wins or loses.

Kansas teams ranked
Champs Liberal Olathe North take top honors
The Associated Press
TOPEKA, Kan. — Olathe North and Liberal completed perfect 12-0 seasons in 1997 and won the Class 6A and 5A state championships. Now, they start the 1998 season atop the Associated Press preseason consensus high school football rankings.
They are joined as class favorites to Topeka Hayden in 4A, Smith Center in 3A, Claflin in 2-1A and Little River in Eight-Man I. Sylvan Grove and Haviland launch the '98 campaign tied for No. 1 in Eight-Man II.
* High school teams open their seasons this week.
Olathe North, which defeated Wichita West 27-26 in the championship game a year ago and is going for its third straight 6A title, was not an unanimous choice as No. 1. Garden City got one first-place vote. Given the best chance of derailing North in the preseason ratings are Garden City and Olathe East
ranked second and third.
Liberal, Hayden, Smith Center. Claflin and Little River were unanimous top picks this season.
Liberal beat蓝 Valley 37-26 in the Class 5A title game last year. Claflin and Sylvan Grove also are coming off championship seasons. Claflin defeated Centriaal 22-12 in the 2-1A title game last year, while Sylvan defeated Hope 56-32 for the Eight-Man II crown.
Other defending state champions are Sabetha, which beat Louisburg 14-13 in 4A; Silver Lake, which edged Smith Center 34-34 in 4A and Centre, a 44-18 winner over Little River in Eight-Man I.
The AP consensus rankings are an average of ratings by the Hutchinson Neus, Salina Journal, Topeka Capital-Journal and Wichita Eagle.

Browns' buyer options narrow
The Associated Press
CLEVELAND — The field of candidates to buy the expansion Cleveland Brown's harrowed when three of seven bidders dropped out.
Thomas Murdough Jr., founder and president of the Step2 Co. in Streetsboro, confirmed yesterday that he is out of the running for the new Browns, which will begin play in 1999.
The Plain Dealer, citing sources familiar with the bidding process, reported yesterday that Cleveland Indians owner Richard Jacobs and Boston Bruins owner Jeremy Jacobs — no relation to the Indians owner — also have ended their pursuit of the Browns.
Messages were left for both men and at the NFL office in New York.
Murdough said he was forced out by the steep price. He would not
guess at the final cost of the Brown's, but some estimates have topped $500 million.
"I think it was a realization that with the price heading up where it was heading, there was not going to be a return of any sort," he said. "There was going to be a negative return."
The old Cleveland franchise moved to Baltimore after the 1995 season. The NFL owners expect to pick an owner for the new team at a meeting Sept. 8.
Murdough, 59, said he and Richard Jacobs, 73, discussed merging their bids. They had even agreed on a succession plan in which Murdough would take control of the team after several years.
But Murdough said he and Jacobs realized the Browns would be a financial loss.
"I'm very disappointed," Mur-
dough said. "We wanted to do this."
The remaining bidders are banker and suburban Cleveland resident Alfred Lerner, partnered with Carmen Policy, former San Francisco 49ers president; New York real estate and banking magnate Howard Milstein; Cleveland-area lawyer Lawrence Dolan with his brother, Charles, founder of New York-based Cablevision Systems Corp., and suburban Cleveland real estate developer Bart Wolstein.
Goldman, Sachs & Co., the firm advising the NFL through the bidding process, was expected to receive a second round of offers from the remaining candidates yesterday.
The NFL's seven-member expansion committee will meet Thursday in New York to discuss the bids. At least two applicants will be considered by the 30 NL owners as finalists.

Baseball rates science status
Web site explores game's scientific side
The Associated Press
SAN FRANCISCO — From Tom Candiotti's knuckleball to Rickey Henderson's swing, there is a lot more to baseball than stars and statistics. There's science.
Ever wonder how Candiott's signature pitch moves through the air? Or why baseballs seem to sail out of Coors Field more often than anywhere else?
Check out the Science of Baseball Web site (www.exploratorium.edu/baseball), which made its debut yesterday. The Web site, a project of the Exploratorium, a hands-on San Francisco science museum, is aimed at fans of all ages.
The project manager, Jim Spadaccini, is an unabashed sports fan. He was especially amused by Candiotti, who was asked about the dynamics of his knuckle-ball for a video clip.
"He said, 'Well, you guys should know this, you're the scientists,' " Spadaccini said. He explained that the ball moves the way it does because it is released with very little spin and because the air acts against the stitches.
"The grip is held not with the knuckles
but with the fingernails," Candiotti says. "Maybe they should call it the fingernail ball."
Designed to look like a 1950s-style comic book, the Web site includes interactive projects — including how to find the sweet spot of your bat with the tap of a hammer.
The baseball site is the third in a series concerning the science of sport. The Exploratorium also has produced similar sites focused on hockey and cycling.
sites focused on books. "We started about a year ago." Spadacini said. "We had a traveling show about sports and science come to the museum, so we decided we wanted to put something up on the Web. But we didn't want it to just be a brochure for the exhibit. We wanted something educational."
About a quarter of a million people have visited the Science of Hockey site, he said.
said. After visitors to the Science of Baseball site watch a video clip of a player, such as Candiotti, they can then view physicist Paul Doherty explain the science behind it.
In one clip discussing a bat's sweet spot, Doherty explains why it stings when someone hits the ball on the end of the bat.
MLB
"What's happened is that some of the energy you've put into the swing goes into you hands and not in the ball," he
says.
Another section of the site is dubbed the Time Machine. Users can plug one of several baseball players into a different era and see how he would fare. For example, put Babe Ruth in the modern era and he would hit more home runs, but his overall batting average would be lower.
Spadaccini said the Time Machine was created with the help of Pete Palmer, a statistician with Total Baseball.
"That's the timeless quality of baseball." Spadaccini said. "You can, with stats, bake Babe Ruth and Barry Bonds."
For Web surfers who are not scientifically inclined, the site includes articles and film clips about the Negro leagues, women in baseball and an online tour of the Louisville Slugger factory.
the Coulsdale School district.
"Sports is a great way to reach the public," Spadaccini said. "If you can find real world subjects that interest people — it can be a great vehicle for helping them understand science and, in turn, better understand the sport."
Tyson still punching mad following minor accident
The Associated Press
GAITHERSBURG, Md. — Mike Tyson punched one man in the chest and kicked another in the groin after a minor traffic accident, police said yesterday.
There were no serious injuries. Tyson later complained of chest pains and was treated at a hospital emergency room and released.
In an updated report, police said the car in which Tyson was riding, driven by his wife, Monica, was struck Monday afternoon in a three-car, chain-reaction accident in this Maryland

He was suspended last year for biting Evander Holyfield during a heavyweight title fight.
trouble.
After the car accident, the drivers of the other two cars were talking when Tyson walked up and began arguing with them,
said Montgomery County police representative Derek Ballies.
Witnesses said Tyson's bodyguards restrained him, according to Baliles. The bodyguards were in a car traveling behind the others in heavy traffic.
Police recorded the day's events as a misdemeanor assault with no charges filed.
"In the state of Maryland, if a misdeanor occurs and it is not in the presence of a police officer, we can't place charges or place anyone under arrest," Ballies said.
it is up to the other drivers to decide whether to make a complaint to police, and it was unclear if either wanted to. Ballies said. They have up to a year to do so.
ryson and his wife declined to make a statement, police said.
Tyson is to appear Sept. 19 at a hearing before the Nevada Athletic Commission to determine if the state will let him box again. Tyson was suspended by the commission in July 1997 for biting Holyfield's ears.

Timberwolves basketball player loses lawsuit
Former girlfriend wins $2.4 million in assault case
The Associated Press
ST. LOUIS — An Atlanta woman who claimed she was bitten, choked and threatened with a pistol by Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Peeler has been awarded $2.4 million in damages.
A St. Louis Circuit Court jury made the award Monday to Angela Link, a former girlfriend of Peeler's at the University of Missouri in Columbia, where he was a basketball player.
Link, 26, said after the award that
her case was never about money.
"I just wanted the jury to say he was guilty; that was my main concern," she said. "I never cared about what the judgment could be."
Peeler sat impassively as the decision was announced. In an interview later, he said he was glad the dispute was resolved.
"It's going to make me a stronger person," he said. "It's finally done, and it's behind you 100 percent."
The case concerned Peeler's actions early in the morning of May 30, 1992, in Columbia, where he and Link attended the University of Missouri.
"I knew they were all lies. I was just absolutely disgusted and felt sick to my stomach. I want to make sure that other women and girls understand that there is justice but you have to speak out."
Angela Link
According to Link's civil suit, Peeler arrived at her off-campus apartment and attacked her in her bedroom. Peeler pinned her to her bed, bit her and held a pistol to her

head. Link said he was enraged because she went out the night before without his permission.
Later that day, police stu-
Later that day, police stopped Peeler and found a gun in his car.
On June 19, 1992, Peeler pleaded guilty to carrying a concealed weapon, a felony, to false imprisonment and to third-degree assault, which are misdemeanors. A judge put him on five years' probation.
At trial, Peeler denied having a gun during the incident but said he pleaded guilty to the charges to preserve his chances at the NBA draft. The Los Angeles Lakers took Peeler as the 15th player drafted that year.
He said that he was not enraged at Link that night but that he was worried about her and some of her friends because they had been drinking at bars a few hours earlier. He added that, while Link was among women with whom he had sex, he never considered her a girlfriend.
Link's lawyer, Mary Coffey, said Peeler's testimony "was our best evidence in terms of his callousness."
After the trial ended, Link said Peeler's assertions outraged her.
"I knew they were all lies," she said. "It was just absolutely disgusted and felt sick to my stomach.
"I want to make sure that other women and girls understand that there is justice but you have to speak out." "Link said.
Peeler's lawyer, Bradley Marshall of Seattle, said he would ask U.S. District Judge Charles A. Shaw to take away the jury's award of $2.1 million in punitive damages.
The trial lacked testimony from doctors and therapists who treated Link after the incident, Marshall said. The jury's award of $300,000 in actual damages also is unsupported by evidence, he added.
In her closing argument Monday,
Coffey told jurors that Peeler's 10-year basketball contract calls for him to receive $18.2 million by the time it expires in 2003.
Peeler estimated Monday that the criminal case and Link's civil charges have cost him $6 million to $15 million. He said the accusations dropped him to a lower position in the 1992 NBA draft and cost him product endorsements.
The Lakers traded Peeler to the Vancouver Grizzlies in 1996. He joined the Timberwolves last season.

Famous Amos, Big Kat to battle for title of 'best'

ginia on Saturday.
in the 5-foot-8, 203-pound Zereoue can produce a big game against the Buckeyes, he will likely earn a role as a favorite in the chase for the Heisman Trophy. Zereoue was the nation's third-leading rusher a year ago with 1,505 yards.
Katzenmoyer, who has yet to be declared academically eligible to play this season, says Zereoue is better than any running back the Buckeyes will see in the Big Ten.
"I've seen him on film. He's an incredible back. He's a strong, strong runner, quick, fast," Katzenmoyer said. "He has the potential to break it at any time."
At 6-4, 255, Katzenmoyer has the potential to break running backs at any time. With 4.58 speed in the 40-yard dash, he should be able to dog Zereoue from sideline to sideline.
into Morgantown an Ohio State defense that returns nine starters from last year's 10-3 Sugar Bowl team.
Katzenmoyer, last year's Butkus Award winner as the nation's best linebacker, is expected to lead
"This matchup is mentioned a lot. He's a dominant player," Zereoue said. "He's been doing it since his freshman year."
So has Zereoue.
Named the Big East rookie of the year in 1996, Zereone set school and Big East single-season rushing records last season.
In strength, the two players match up well. Both players bench press more than 400 pounds. While Katzenmoyer intimidates with his size in the middle of the Buckeyes' defense, Zereoue draws comparisons to Barry Sanders with a shifty running style and a short but sturdy body that seems to grow thicker with muscle every season
How often the two meet on the field Saturday depends on how well Ohio State can handle a veteran WVU offensive line and whether Mountaineers fullbacks can tie up Katzenmoyer long enough to spring Zereoue.

Prentice, a New York lawyer, is now alone in the bidding process to purchase the team, which has been in ownership limbo since the death in 1993 of Ewing Kauffman. The Royals' board of directors said two weeks ago that Prentice lacked only the necessary 50 percent investment from Kansas City residents. He has said he is close to meeting that goal.
Prentice has attracted several prominent Kansas City residents to his group, including golfer Watson and Nancy Kauffman, the widow of Ewing Kauffman's only son.

Nebraska leaves options open
Quarterback's injury leaves Cornhuskers with big dilemma
INLCONL, Neb. — Bobby Newcombe or Eric Crouch?
The Associated Press
Nebraska coach Frank Solich said yesterday that when it comes to picking a starter for this weekend, he will keep his options for quarterbacks open.
Newcombe, a sophomore, partially tore a ligament in his left knee during Saturday's 56-27 victory against Louisiana Tech. Solich said the team's medical staff still had not determined Newcombe's status.
"We're not counting him out, but we're not saying whether he'll be able to start or even play." Solich said.
Newcombe did not dress for practice Monday, while Crouch, a redshirt freshman, directed the first-
team offense as the No. 4 Cornhuskers prepared for Saturday's game against Alabama-Birmingham.

But this is not cloak-and-dagger stuff. Solich promised a starter would be named long before kickoff.

"It won't be a deal where we're trying to keep everybody in the dark, then race somebody out onto the field," he said.

and also ran for two touchdowns.
"Until a guy does start, you really can't tell how it's going to unfold." Solich said. "But we certainly have all the confidence in Eric. Bobby threw the ball well last week. He's a great scramble. It's the same thing with Eric."
Crouch played the final two series against Louisiana Tech and completed 1-of-3 passes for five yards. Crouch, from Millard North High School In Omaha, Neb., said he would be ready.
"Last week, I prepared as if I was going to play." he said. "There was a possibility I would be going in, maybe on the second play. You can get hurt anytime. If do play, that's a good opportunity for me to contribute."
After Crouch, the 'Huskers have fifth-year senior Monte Christo and sophomore walk on Jay Runty. The staff has ruled out using former backup quarerback Frankie London, who moved to wingback this fall.
Solich said it was the Nebraska system — not the guy taking the snaps — that mattered most.

"I hadn't been on the field until last week for about two years," Crouch said. "It felt good. I'm ready to go."
Florida quarterback set to lead team
The Associated Press
GAINESVILLE, Fla. — Learning football from a taskmaster is difficult, and that goes double when the coach is your father.
Of course, that experience may be the reason Jesse Palmer feels right at home at Florida, since Steve Spurrier has picked up where Palmer's dad left off.
Palmer will open the season as No. 3 Florida's starting quarterback Saturday when the Gators play Citadel.
day when they are in school.
A penchant to do things most coach's sons do — study film, ask questions, pay attention to detail — has earned the sophomore from Nepean, Ontario, early praise from Spurrier, although Palmer understands how fickle some coaches can be.
coaches can help.
"I don't know what it's like to play for a coach who doesn't yell," he said Tuesday. "I know there are some coaches who really live in quiet coaching. That may work if that's their style, but I don't know."
with his father came in 11th grade after he threw a first-quarter interception in a game his team eventually won.
"All that day — in the first quarter, at halftime, on the bus ride back, my dad yelled at me about throwing the interception," Palmer said. "It was always constructive. I could handle it at that level, and at this level, it will be fine."
S spurrier, a Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback for the Gators, his known for accepting little less than perfection from his quarterbacks. Danny Wuerffel got it right. And Shane Matthews before him.
One of Palmer's most vivid battles
But Spurrier is realistic enough to know that it takes time for a player to master Florida's complex offense and the defenses Southeastern Conference opponents will throw at him.
"Jesse can make all the throws." Spurrier said. "He's got as strong an arm or stronger as Shane or Danny. He just needs experience. He needs to get in there and experience some good things happening. We're going give
him every chance to do that, just like we have with every quarterback around here."
Palmer's first start, last year at Auburn, was not the time or the place to ease in. He was handed the starting job after starter Doug Johnson was suspended for missing curfew, and he went 8-for-14 for 92 yards with two interceptions. He was lifted in the second half for senior Noah Brindise.
Citadel, a Division I-AA team that the Gators are expected to roll over, may be a more appropriate opponent for a young quarterback to learn his lessons.
"I'll be able to tell you after game's over," Palmer said. "But it's been very nice getting the reps since two-a-days started. It helps with the confidence. Mentally, there's an advantage going in as a No. 1 guy instead of taking over at mid-season."
Palmer's teammates say there's been a noticeable change between this year and last — a difference in the behavior of someone who feels he belongs in his spot and someone who
just got thrown in.
"He's lot more relaxed than he was before," left tackle Zach Piller said. "He's taken a leadership role in the huddle and has been showing a lot more confidence."
Of course, Spurrier will have a quarterback controversy on his hands as soon as Johnson fully recovers from shoulder surgery. Johnson has been throwing faster balls in practice and is said to be at 80 percent strength or better. Spurrier said Johnson would not play in the opener, although some in the Florida camp would not be surprised to see him.
Palmer knows he will have to perform well this week and against Northeast Louisiana next week to keep his spot for the real start of the season — Sept. 19 at Tennessee.
"I'm not going to lie and say I'm as good as I can get." Palmer said. "I want to improve. I aspire to do that. I watch the tape. It's not hard to stay out of trouble, and it's not hard to commit yourself if you want it bad enough. And that's what I'm trying to do."

THE STUDENT NEWSPAPER OF THE UNIVERSITY OF KAÑSAS
Morning-after pill brings little change
Watkins birth-control policies remain same
By Chris Fickett Kansan staff writer
（USPS 650-640）
The Food and Drug Administration's approval of the "morning-after pill" probably won't affect Watkins Memorial Health Center's procedures, said Henry Buck, gynecologist for Watkins.
Buck said that the new drug was similar to the emergency contraception method that Watkins uses.
Emergency contraception is used mainly when traditional forms of birth control fail. Buck said.
If a patient requested emergency contraception from Watkins, a pregnancy test would be given to assure that the patient had not become pregnant more than 72 hours beforehand, Buck said.
If the test were to come back negative, he would prescribe Ovral, which is an
emergency birth control pill. The patient would take four pills, two at first and two more 12 hours later.
The FDA approved the use of six brands of birth control pills for emergency contraception in February 1997. The morning-after pill, which is marketed under the name PREVEN, needed approval because it was a new product.
Women who think they may have become pregnant must use emergency contraception within 72 hours for it to be effective, Buck said.
The new drug will be available with a doctor's prescription, but women should not view the morning-after pill as an alternative to traditional birth control methods, he said.
"We recommend that people do not rely on using it." Buck said.
"If you screwed up, then you deal with it," she said.
iris Borem, Tulsa, Okla., junior, said that she thought that couples who had unprotected sex should not rely on the drug as a method of birth control.
The morning-after pill
A total of four pills are taken: two right away and two more 12 hours later.
Watkins currently uses Ovral, a birth control pill for emergency contraception.
The FDA approved six brands of birth control as effective for use as "moring-after" pills in February 1997.
The morning-after pill reduces the risk of pregnancy by 75 percent by preventing or delaying ovulation.

"It's not only a scientific but an ethical advance. Women now have more options and have long deserved to have the rights to prevent unplanned pregnancies."
Arthur Caplan Director of the Center of Bioethics at the University of Pennsylvania
FDA approves contraceptive
The Associated Press
NEWARK, N.J. — The Food and Drug Administration yesterday allowed the first-ever sales and marketing of a kit of emergency contraceptive pills that women can take the morning after unprotected sex to prevent pregnancy.
The PREVEN kits will be available by prescription by the end of September, said Roderick Mackenzie, chairman and founder of Gynetics Inc. of Somerville, N.J., which won the first approval to advertise and to sell morning-after pills.
The FDA has long told women and doctors how to use standard birth-control pills in this manner, and the agency last year gave out specific information about which pills and dosages were effective as contraception up to 72 hours after unprotected sex.
But today's approval allows a pharmaceutical company to advertise and to sell special morning-after packets
that women can keep in their medicine cabinets.
"It's not only a scientific but an ethical advance," said Arthur Caplan, director of the Center for Bioethics at the University of Pennsylvania. "Women now have more options and have long deserved to have the rights to prevent unplanned pregnancies."
Anti-abortion groups, however, have criticized the method.
The morning-after pills are different from RU-486, the French abortion pill, which actually ends a pregnancy several weeks after it has begun.
Gynetics had said the company would market the emergency kit last year, becoming the first U.S. company to take action since the FDA approved using contraceptive pills for emergency birth control.
In February 1997, the FDA said six brands of birth-control pills were safe and effective as morning-after pills,

School of Law to lose dean
Bv Sarah Hale
Students and faculty members are disappointed and surprised that the dean of the School of Law announced his intent to resign Tuesday.
Kansan staff writer
Hoefflich does have plans to remain at the University as a full professor and as a distinguished member of the faculty, but his plans for the future are full of options, Eglinski said.
Michael Hoeflich will resign June 30, 1999 for personal reasons, but he wanted to leave plenty of time for the school to find a replacement, said Geogann Eglinklis, associate dean.
"It was a real disappointment to myself and the staff," she said. "My sense is that the faculty feels a sense of loss."
Jason Lacey, Lawrence second year law student, had Hoefflich as a professor
and was his research assistant last spring.
"I appreciated his approach to teaching and the effort he made to always be in contact with the students," Lacey said. "I think he's made a very successful effort to improve the law school in the four years that he's been here. I'm sorry to see him go, and I wish him well."
Webb Hecker, professor of business and corporate law, said that Hoeflich would be hard to replace.
"He's always been very supportive of the faculty and anything that we've wanted to do that has merit," he said. "He brought us into the 21st century."
Hecker said that Hoelflich's reasons for leaving were personal.
"It has nothing to do with his dissatisfaction with the Law School or the Law
School's dissatisfaction with him," he said.
Eglinski said that the process for selecting a replacement was long and complicated. She said that the school would begin a formal search for a dean that would take at least a semester.
"We are very open to looking at the outside as well as the inside," she said. "The faculty would not be opposed either way."
Hoefflich came to the University of Kansas in 1994 from Syracuse University, where he was dean of the law school and a professor.
Hoefflich also has worked at the University of Illinois' law school and in private practice in Champaign, Ill.
He received his law degree from Yale University and master's degrees from Cambridge University and Haverford College.
In addition to his position
as dean, Hoeflich has taught various courses at the University and has edited or coauthored five books, with three more in progress.
This semester he is teaching "Murder more Foul: Legal, Literary, Historical and Biological Aspects of Murder" in Templin Hall as part of a seminar, Eglinski said.
Hoeflich was selected as the Kane distinguished professor of law in 1997, which was the first endowed professorship in the school.
Eglinski said that Hoeflich's expertise in technology, his desire to bring in international scholars and his speciality in legal history had been important to the school.
"No matter what he does,
I expect that he will continue to teach others," she said.
Hoeflich could not be reached for comment.
University aids Haskell's housing woes
By Sarah Hale
Kansan staff writer
Waking up late for class is a nightmare most students experience at least a couple times during their scholastic careers.
If the students are in the residence halls, they simply have to roll out of bed and catch the next bus to the Hill.
But 24 students living in the residence halls have to get in their cars and drive across town to Haskell Indian Nations University.
[Image of a person sitting on a bed with pillows].
Once those students are on campus, they usually don't head back to McCollum Hall until after dinner.

"It's definitely a disadvantage to have to drive to class every day," Nicole Dauphainais, Atlanta Haskell sophomore, said. "But like it because we have more freedom here."
Dauphinais said that she usually stayed on campus after her morning classes, visited her friends or went somewhere to study before heading back to McColum.
"I feel like I haven't met a lot of people," she said. "It's hard, because I'm never here."
Because enrollment was unexpectedly high, Haskell's residence halls did not have enough room to house all of their students. Also, renovations to two of the Haskell residence halls, Osceola-Keokuk and Winona, reduced the amount of housing available.
Although the Haskell residence halls will be open in August 1999 students such as Perry Biglefhand, Lamedeer, Mont. must live at the University of Kansas for at least this semester.
Bob Martin, president of Haskell, said that if enrollment decreased by the spring semester, the Haskell student living at the University probably would be able to move into Haskell's residence halls.
"I never thought that I'd be staying here in a big college dorm," said Biglefthand, who is in his second semester at Haskell. "I like it though. It's a different experience from what I was expecting."
Students who live at Haskell do not have to pay housing fees. Marti, said that Haskell paid the additional expenses of its students living at McCollum.
Stoner, director of KU Student Housing Department, said that the University always should be
"Without the additional housing at KU, it is unlikely that these students would be able to continue their education," Martin said. "I really want to thank KU, especially Ken Stoner, for helping us find a remedy to this problem."
In the past, Haskell students had never had to stay at the KU residence halls, but they have staved in apartments.
willing to help neighboring institutions.
"If it came down to staying here next year or going to the Haskell dorms, I'd rather stay here," Dauphinais said. "It's more comfortable."

Lawrence police officer bitten in domestic dispute
A 36-year-old Lawrence resident bit a Lawrence police officer Tuesday, after she had been arrested following an argument with her ex-boyfriend, police said.
The incident began about 8 p.m. at the ex-boyfriend's residence in the 2200 block of Harper Avenue when the woman hurled a rock through his living room window, police said.
After breaking the window, the woman ran a short distance before being stopped by Lawrence Police Officer Don Hicks.
"We located the suspect in the area," said Matt Farna, Lawrence police officer. "She gave a fictitious name when she was first contacted."
"That's when she got violent," Farna said. "She grabbed the microphone cord and tried to throw it out the window."
"When the officer reached for the mike, she bit him," he said.
According to police reports, Hicks was bitten in the web of his right hand but did not bleed.
He reported no injury and was not hospitalized the police said.
Hicks was not available for comment.
Douglas county deputy threatened during arrest
A Lawrence man threatened to kill a Douglas County Sheriff's officer Tuesday after the man was arrested for his part in an car accident on Kansas Highway 10, the Douglas County Sheriff's office reported.
The van then went into a ditch and caught fire.
The man, 34, was driving intoxicated west on Kansas Highway 10 near Lawrence, when the van he was driving was rear-ended by another vehicle, the Sheriff's office said.
When Sheriff's deputies arrived, they arrested him for driving while he was intoxicated and for being a habitual violator, the Sheriff's office said.
The man told the officer that he had not been driving the van and threatened to kill the officer when the officer arrested him.
As of yesterday, the man had not been charged with the threat to the officer, the Sheriff's office reported. The driver of the other vehicle, a 20-year-old Lawrence resident, was not arrested in the incident.
KANSAS Train derailment causes evacuation of Kansas city
Keith Burner
HAZELTON — A train carrying hazardous chemicals derailed and caught fire yesterday, forcing the evacuation of this south-central Kansas town.
No one was injured in the derailment, but four cars carrying the chemicals derailed about 6:30 a.m., and three of the cars overturned into a ditch and caught fire. About 200 people were evacuated from the town.
Officials also evacuated residents in a 5- to 7-mile radius surrounding Hazelton.
A National Guard helicopter was brought in to dump water on the train fire, but authorities did not start using it right away because they were trying to figure out which chemical was in which of the overturned cars, said Joy Moser, a spokeswoman for the Kansas Adjutant General's office, which oversees the National Guard. Some of the chemicals could explode in contact with water, she said.
The train was carrying nitric acid, alcohol, sodium hydroxide solution and isopropyl palmitate, Burlington Northern and Santa Fe Railway Co. officials said.
NATION Thousands flee Gulf Coast as Hurricane Earl advances
PANAMA CITY BEACH, Fla. — Thousands of people fled the Gulf Coast yesterday as Tropical Storm Earl strengthened into a hurricane and veered toward Florida with drenching rain and wind up to 100 mph.
The storm's center was expected to come ashore last night somewhere near Panama City, then cut across Georgia and into South Carolina, with 10 inches of rain possible.
A hurricane warning was posted for about 320 miles of coastline, from Pascagoula, Miss., to a point near Talahasse.
Many people also left Santa Rosa Island, east of Pensacola, at the recommendation of condominium and hotel managers. A state park closed on St. George Island, connected to mainland by a single bridge. Evacuations were recommended in floodprone areas elsewhere.
Islands off Tallahassee were under
mandatory evacuation orders.
Northwest cancels flights as pilot strike continues
Before strengthening into the third hurricane of the season, Earl had been moving almost due north across the Gulf of Mexico, and Texas and Louisiana seemed to be the targets. Early yesterday, however, Earl took a sharp right turn toward Florida.
MINNEAPOLIS — Northwest Airlines laid off 27,500 more employees yesterday and canceled all of its flights through Labor Day weekend because of a pilot strike.
The affected employees included mechanics, flight attendants, customer service employees and other ground workers.
Northwest said more layoffs among its about 50,000 employees might follow.
Because of the layoffs, the airline would need eight to 10 days to resume a full flight schedule when the strike ends, spokesman Jon Austin said.
Yesterday, the National Mediation Board called a meeting with airline and union negotiators to identify areas of flexibility as the strike by 6,100 pilots entered its fifth day.
Northwest is the nation's sixthlargest airline in terms of passengers carried annually and the fourth-largest in revenue. It carries nearly 150,000 passengers a day and 2.9 million pounds of cargo on 1,700 flights in North America, Europe, Asia and India.
WORLD Experts find similarities in South African bombs
Experts had finished reconstructing the Planet Hollywood bomb, which killed one man and injured 27 people.
Cape Town and its surrounding slums have been subject to a wave of recent bombings, which authorities have linked to a Muslim vigilante group, People Against Gangsterism and Drugs.
One bomb went off Aug. 6 outside police offices, killing a street vendor, and another outside a local police station struck about a month before that. No one was injured in that attack.
Immediately after the blast, top South African officials speculated that the restaurant bombing was connected to U.S. missile strikes against alleged Islamic terrorist sites in Sudan and Afghanistan. The U.S. strikes were retaliation for the Aug. 7 bombing of U.S. embassies in Kenya and Tanzania.
Police spokesman John Sterrenberg said all three bombs had common elements but said he could not elaborate to protect the investigation.

Morning-after birth control sale approved
Continued from page 1A
the first federal acknowledgment of the emergency birth-control method that European women have been prescribed for years.
Until now, however, contraceptive manufacturers have refused to sell the form of emergency birth control here, citing litigation and political fears.
The pills prevent or delay ovulation, experts said. Some say the pills possibly could prevent a fertilized egg from implanting in the uterine wall so it could grow into an embryo.
If an embryo is already implanted and growing, the morning-after pills will have no effect—unlike RU-486.
The FDA said the regimen is effective 75 percent of the time. It consists of taking two oral contraceptive pills within 72 hours of unprotected sex and another two pills 12 hours later.
For every 100 women who have unprotected sex during the second or third week of their menstrual cycle, eighth would normally become pregnant — but only two would if the women took the emergency birth control, according to studies.
The emergency contraceptive's side effects are nausea and vomiting, which can sometimes be severe. More than 4 million women have taken emergency contraception in Britain alone, and studies there have shown no serious side effects.

KU professor gives financial aid to Russia by teaching economics courses in Moscow
By Steph Brewer
Kansan staff writer
For the past seven months, a University of Kansas professor has been riding Russia's economic roller coaster, trying to help the government put on the brakes.
Mohamed El Hodiri, professor of economics and Russian and Eastern European studies, has directed a fiscal-training program in Moscow since January. The program is designed to teach 1,000 of the Russian government's middle-to-high-level managers of fiscal policy how to operate in a free-market economy.
PRESIDENT
El-Hodiri: Leads a financial training program for managers.
Because of recent Russian fiscal policy difficulties, El-Hodiri has been working hard.
"Everything is in a state of crisis," he said.
Financial problems might force the Russian government to make program cuts. The program was intended eventually to service four cities but may only spread to three.
The program is a collaboration between Barsents Group LLC, a service firm, and the Russian National Fund for Training. The program is being financed by a loan from the World Bank.
EI-Hodiri first became involved with the Barents Group from 1994 to 1996 through a USAID project. Having studied in Russia during the 1950s and being fluent in Russia, he took an interest in their financial situation.
I was just sitting here in Lawrence boiling because a lot of people were giving the wrong advice to the Russians," he said.
American economists advised the Russian government about how to run a free-market economy without considering the differences between Russia and the United States, El-Hodiri said.
By advising the Russians to jump right into a free-market economy instead of proceeding gradually, American economists unwittingly led the country toward disaster, he said.
El-Hodiri said Russia also was at fault for following the advice. He compared changing economies to traveling.
"You move gradually, you build a road and then you travel on it," he said. "You don't travel and expect the road to build itself."
With five three-week courses, El-Hodiri and the Russian government will try to change that mentality. The courses, which were developed by El-Hodiri, his deputy and a team of experts in Washington, instruct the officials in matters of budgeting, treasury operation and fiscal policy.
El-Hodiri and his deputy, Normar Baxter, a consultant with Barents Group, are the only two American members of the program who live in Russia full time. They are assisted by about 40 other American economists and six or seven Russians.
The courses are in the pilot stage. The program also is training 125 teachers who eventually will take over for El-Hodiri and his team.
So far, the courses have been successful. Susan Banta, a manager at Barents Group, said the program was proceeding well.
At a June reception to celebrate the end of the first course's trial run, ElHodrii said the Siberian minister of finance praised the program.
"She said, 'Mohamed, you taught us a lot of economics but the best thing you taught us was democracy." he said.
Not all Russians are so happy. El-Hodiri said he could not even get his own money out of the bank because the banking system was collapsing. Even worse for El-Hodiri is the anger many Russians feel toward America.
"It feels like you're being wrongly accused of destroying a country."
Mohamed El-Hodiri
Russian and Eastern European studies
"People blame Americans for this," he said.
El-Hodiri has tried to explain to his friends that Americans are only trying to help.
"It feels like you're being wrongly accused of destroying a country," he said.
Although El-Hodrii's friends understand his position, he said Americans were in danger because of the general mood in Russia. Regardless, he will stay in Russia until the end of July or until his part of the program ends.
"I'm going to see this through, and that's that." he said.
Maria Carlson, chairwoman of the Russian and East European studies program, said El-Hodir's work in Russia would benefit the University, providing experience he can relate to his students upon his return next fall.
"It's a living laboratory for an economy in transition," she said. "To be living in that laboratory is an incredible experience."
Market rebounds cautiously after Monday's drop
Financial woes in Russia and Asia concern investors
The Associated Press
The Dow Jones industrial average rose as much as 125 points yesterday afternoon — bobbing back above its starting point for the year
NEW YORK — Stocks slid into the close yesterday as investors used a sharp rebound from Monday's selling spree as an opportunity to pull some money out of the market.
— before a late selloff left it down 45.06 on the day at 7,782.37. The Dow failed to build on Tuesday's 288-point rebound from the previous day's 512-point plunge.
Parking in the rear
The broad market also faltered as another volatile session drew to a close, although some measures managed to escape with modest gains.
With investors still smarting from Monday's plunge, analysts said it was not surprising to
"It feeds on itself. As the gain starts to be given back, that urge to take quick profits gets greater and greater," said Richard A. Dickson, a technical analyst at Scott & Stringfellow in Richmond, Va.
The Dow, which fell as low as 7,400 on Tuesday before staging a rally, is now showing a 1.6 percent loss for the year and sits 16.7 percent below the July 17 record of 9,337.97. At that peak, the Dow was up 18.1 percent for 1998.
Investors may have drawn some comfort from a report showing that orders to American factories jumped 1.2 percent in July, the biggest increase since last fall. There still were signs, however, that the continuing economic crisis in Asia is hurting exports.
and Russia's economic woes. "There's no reason that this market should begin to make an assault at new highs after reaching the lows we reached on Monday."
"The same things that were concerning the market Monday are still here," said Charles White, portfolio manager at Avatar Associates in New York, referring to worries about Asia's
In Moscow, President Clinton sought to reassure investors during a news conference with Russian President Boris Yeltsin.
"The volatility in the world markets, including in our stock market, I think is to be expected under these circumstances," Clinton said. "The right thing to do is to try to restore growth in the economies of the world where there isn't enough growth."
The Nasdaq composite index, which tumbled 140 points on Monday and rebounded by 75 on Tuesday, rose 17.76 to 1,592.85 yesterday as the battered technology group held some of its gains.
But the Standard and Poor's 500-stock index, which is dominated by major companies like the 30 that make up the Dow, finished 3.79 lower at 990.47.

Commerce trade center uproots popular Kansas Union features
Despite the frustrated opposition of many students, the semester was inaugurated by yet another example of the University's capitalistic pursuits through the displacement of the Kansas Union art gallery and television lounge in exchange for a full-fledged branch of Commerce Bank in the center of the Union's main floor.
the center of the university.
Student Union Activities was forced to accommodate the new bank, which will be accompanied by a KUID card center, in a move reflective of the trend toward increasing privatization and commercialization of University space, demonstrated last spring when the University entered into an exclusive deal with Coca-Cola. Also last spring, the University signed a five-year contract with Commerce Bank and Cybermark, a Florida-based technology company, in whats another step in the selling of the University.
Although bank construction will be completed by the end of this week, the temporary art gallery setup is behind schedule and might be ready for the first exhibition Sept. 14. The art gallery, replaced by the bank, will be moved to where the old television lounge was that has been shoved into a corner of the basement's Jaybowl.
Phase three of union renovations
A Commerce bank branch has replaced what used to be the art gallery.
rumored to include gallery reparations, won't be on the drawing board until the summer of 2000.
An administrative explanation of the art gallery displacement suggests there is substantial student demand for a full-service campus bank. But this doesn't seem to be true in the face of figures revealing that only 20 to 30 percent of the student population has signed up for Commerce Bank accounts. This is not surprising because only about 400 of 28,000 KU students were consulted in the surveys conducted.
competitive, business-oriented profit motives of the privately owned Union which will receive hefty rent payments from Commerce.
A sensible, no-strings-attached alternative to a full-fledged bank is a few Commerce Bank ATMs scattered around campus that would conveniently provide all banking services with the exception of loan approval. Students already can cash checks at the Union's banking window. The lack of a satisfying justification for not taking that course of action shows that the University's actual motives were to appease Commerce Bank and the
A board comprising students, faculty, alumni and staff governs the Union, but it appears as though the students on the board didn't have much influence in the decision. Although the union makes money, students who regularly dropped in to enjoy displayed art in the perfectly central gallery location and students who occupied the convenient, comfortable television lounge will suffer. The gallery, host to local, regional and even national artists, is being squeezed into an area that is 200 square feet smaller than the old gallery, decreasing visibility and limiting exhibition capacity. And the television lounge, which — seemingly no matter what time of day — was occupied by students, is now just a lone television without chairs three floors down.
Many students regard the Union as a place to hang out between classes, but it is unfortunately becoming more reminiscent of a commerce center aimed solely at the marketing of goods and services.

Robinson should keep all racquetball courts
I am writing this letter because I am concerned about the racquetball courts being demolished to add another exercise room. Contrary to most people's beliefs, racquetball is still a popular sport.
There have been reports that the sport will really pick up in five to
ten years. Thus if they tear the courts up now they might regret it in the future.
The best way to compromise is just to tear out some courts, not all, and use the rest as an exercise room. Besides, Robinson already has multiple facilities as it is.
I believe that if this plan is carried out (to gut out all of these courts), that more people will be affected than is expected.

Editor's note: Five of the 15 racquetball courts in Robinson Center are being taken to make room for an energy balance lab. The 8,500 - square-foot lab will house a bio-chem lab, a kitchen, an exercise room and exam rooms, among other things.

rear was a reality: That I could possibly be more than 100 feet away from the nearest cash machine. I got the shakes and nearly threw, up every time I stepped onto campus.
Now, through a compassionate decision by University administrators, a KU student can get his or her cash fix outside of Wescoe instead of being relegated to those redlight districts at either
end of Jayhawk Boulevard. Yep, the suits do actually have hearts, and allowed through the smartcard contract guys at Commerce Bank to deal us addicts an injection of green right in the pulmonary vein of campus.

student consider it. My need and love of bright, shiny ATMs is my business. Who was the administration to say I should wait to express it until I am off their highfalutin grounds? Sure, I could plan ahead and stop at an ATM before class, but I'm in college and can't be bothered with such responsibility. And why should anyone be troubled when there are so many barren spots on campus that are just perfect for a big, beautiful Bankmate machine.
Of course, it's not just about my needs; there are some deep issues at stake. I should be able to get and spend my parents hard-earned money in as little time as possible, and don't give me that whiny rhetoric about a non-commercial University environment. Hey, the University decided it was a good idea to have a business school and marketing program. I consider my campus spending just part of that curriculum.
We can rejoice, but let us not forget those who have gone before us. They never had the right to check their ever-shrinking balance or pay an exorbitant transaction charge to a campus machine. I pray they now have a mobile ATM to make up for the time stolen from them when they went out of their way for that sweet, tempting dough. Surely some sort of separation is due them.
We have been vindicated, and indeed have overcome injustice. We can express our capitalistic tendencies without being treated as second-class citizens. With pride and receipt in hand, I can walk away from this glorious machine knowing my addiction to consumerism has been legitimized by the University. No longer will I feel dirty and forlorn because Strong Hall has not only absolved me, but encouraged my habit.
The University should be thanking me! I mean, if I don't buy the food in Wesco Terrace because I don't have the money right then, they might not have to put out so much food, and that's got to be bad for

upon our banking rights.
I propose every month a cash-out on Wescos Beach. It kind of would be like the sit-ins your parents may have done, except this time for all the right reasons. With thousands of consumers lined up to withdraw from that machine, we will send a message that gone are the days when our cash flow was restricted by oppressive factors of proximity.
We can call it the Million-Dollar March and Donald Trump can be our organization's spiritual leader. Maybe our movement can go beyond cash machines into a whole new realm of money squandering. Perhaps we could persuade the University to get rid of that annoyingly simple ID card system for a flashier corporate one. It would be another way to ... oh yeah, they've done that, too. Maybe the system does work. I hope that you are as proud as I am.

Saferide caters to drunks; fosters irresponsibility
$ \mathbf{T} $ there are few things in life more bothersome than people who refuse to take responsibility for their own actions. Perhence the only thing more irksome than such a
haps the only thing more in person is when I'm forced to support such irresponsibility. For years, Student Senate has been providing an opportunity to support irresponsibility through the Saferide program.
The goal of Saferide is to provide safe transportation to all KU students. The reality is quite different. Saferide hours and operating procedures clearly show that Saferide is nothing more than a "tipsy taxi" financed at the students' expense.
Rodger Woods opinion @ kansan.com
For instance, imagine that you are studying at a friend's house on a Friday night. Options to get home? Not many. First, in about a month it will start to get dark around 6 p.m., and you might not want to walk home. Second, the bus may not run by your friend's house. Third, Saferide doesn't start until 11 p.m., and then you have to compete with all the bar patrons and partygoers to get a ride.
Let's try a second example. Say that you have decided to spend the evening at Watson Library. It's p.m. and your roommate, who earlier promised to pick you up, is not at home. Call Saferide? Saferide doesn't start operations until 11 p.m., and you never know how long it will take. If the car arrives after midnight, you will have to stand outside because the library will be closed. You probably ought to take the bus. It runs (both on- and off-campus loops) until 12:10 a.m.
pus loops) until 12:18 a.m.
Final hypothesis: Suppose that you are at the library on a Saturday night or at your friend's house studying. One might believe that the two extra vehicles operating on weekends would make it easier to get a ride home. Hold on a second. The libraries close at 6 p.m. on Sundays, and the number of KU students studying on Saturday nights may well fit into the two added cars.
Could it be that the extra cars are added primarily to serve bar patrons and party goers? Quiz Time:

regardless.
Although the current Saferide program generally ignores the needs of students that may need transportation before 11 p.m. (i.e. people studying, going to labs, etc.), it fosters irresponsibility for those needing transportation after 11 p.m. By allowing students a ride paid by others, Saferide eliminates the need to plan. There is no need to select a designated driver, to stay with a group that will walk home together or plan for the eventuality that it just might get dark at night.
First. If Saferide wants to regain legitimacy as a real transportation alternative for students, the hours must change. A major selling point for Saferide has been that students can get a safe ride home after dark. Anyone can see that it gets dark before 11 p.m. Perhaps the money used to support the two extra cars on weekends could be used to support earlier hours during the week. Priority should go to students wishing to travel home from the library or other on-campus locations instead of someone leaving a bar.

Second option: Just admit it. The primary purpose of Saferide is to haul around drunk students so that they don't hurt themselves or others. There is no shame in trying to keep drunks off the road. However, there is no reason to make all students pay for the shortsightedness of a few students. There are other options.
light get over it.
I see two possibilities for the Saferide program to be a fair, rational program and a credit to this University.
Local bars and liquor stores derive profit by selling alcoholic beverages to students. Perhaps they could be persuaded to subsidize Saferide. Rather than passing out "Know when to say when" coasters, maybe local wholesale distributors would like to put their name on the cars. In fact, the Saferide cars should have so many advertisements and stickers that they look like something from the NASCAR racing circuit.
current.
Any shortfalls in Saferide finances could be made up on a pay-as-you-go system. Of course, many students might have spent their last dollar on beer. However, since a KUID is required to ride, it should be very little trouble to use the KUID number for later billing.
We need a system that promotes responsibility, not a "tipsy taxi" that forces everyone to pay for those unwilling to care for themselves. With a little effort Saferide, could become that system.

Student Senate debates bills for Loveline, fees
By Seth Jones
By Seth Jones Kansan staff writer
Student Senate committees opened last night and gave a green light to Loveline and a yellow light to a resolution opposing a court ruling that affects the allocation of student fees.
Tiffany Crow, Student Union Activities vice president of alumni relations, spoke before both the finance committee and the University Affairs Committee to seek financial support to bring the MTV program Love-line to the Lied Center. With little debate, committee members passed a bill asking for $2,000 to help foot the total cost of $21,000. The bill will go before full Senate next Wednesday.

University Affairs then had to take a 10-minute break because a bat began flying around the Union Ballroom. The committee moved to another room, but before it reconvened, the bat was caught and released outside unarmed.
University Affairs then moved on to talk about the 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals' decision in Southworth v. Grebe. The ruling stated that the student government at the University of Wisconsin-Madison no longer could allocate student fees to various organizations that students had voiced complaints against.
Partha Mazumdar, graduate senator and Graduate Affairs Committee chairman, asked the University Affairs and Student Rights committees to oppose the court decision and to offer assistance to the Associated Students of Madison.
"This is a horrendous ruling that could affect all of our fees," said Mazumdar. "It's our duty to take a stance against this."
Mazumdar used paying taxes on roads as an analogy.
"I pay for roads to get fixed in Southwestern Kansas. I've never even been to southwestern Kansas," he said. "But I'm not angry that they want to fix the roads there, and I know that if we ask everyone what roads they want to fix, no one will agree. And then we'll never get any of them fixed."
Mike Henry. Student Legislative Awareness Board Committee member, agreed with Mazumdar that the ruling was wrong but thought that Senate should leave the ruling alone so that it would not become a problem in Kansas.
"Right now, this doesn't affect us," he said. "If we're loud, sooner or later it will be brought up in Kansas. If you don't open your mouth, there isn't going to be a fist fight, but if you do open your mouth, then there's going to be a fight."
Medical merger broadens care in Kansas City
The resolution was tabled in both the committees after Mazumdar said he would provide the committees with more information at the next meeting.

The University of Kansas Hospital has agreed to buy TriSource Medical Group to bring primary care services closer to individuals in the Kansas City area.
TriSource Medical Group consists of 11 physician practices that serve about 70,000 patients.
"This partnership with the physicians in the TriSource Medical Group will increase convenience for both patients and referring physicians," said Irene Cumming, University of Kansas Hospital president and chief executive officer.
The University of Kansas Hospital agreed to purchase the medical group from
Irene Cumming; Says purchase would mean better services
TriSource Healthcare Inc. The purchase is expected to become official in November 1998, said Jeff Wright. University of Kansas Hospital spokesman
The purchase agreement was announced Aug. 25. Financial details have not been disclosed, pending a 60-day financial and legal review, Wright said.
The TriSource Medical Group sites include one in Overland Park and Mission. The remaining nine practices are located in Kansas City, Mo.
Cumming said that the purchase would provide greater access to specialized services for more than 60 percent of University of Kansas Hospital patients who come from the metro area.
Additional physicians will not be added to the medical group.
"We did not believe it was necessary to bring new physicians into the marketplace or start-up practices to make our specialized services and resources more convenient," she said.
Wright said that despite the partnership, physicians would not be influenced by the University of Kansas Hospital to where patients should be referred.
"They can still refer patients to local community hospitals." he said.
As a result of the partnership, the physicians will have access to a physician call center that patients can be referred to for health-related information. Also, physicians can call a physician-to-physician consulting service in which they can access specialists at the hospital, Wright said.

Conversation clubs enhance learning
Students taking French, Spanish or Italian have an opportunity to get help outside of class.
Several language departments have organized conversation groups on campus and in downtown Lawrence to help students improve and enjoy their language classes.
"I think joining a conversation group will make it easier for me to practice my language skills," said Jessica Rucker, Burdett freshman. "It will be very beneficial for me to make connections with French students and with professors in the department."
Ted Johnson, professor and adviser of Le Cercle Francais, said that throughout the years he had helped students organize a series of events that helped them better understand the French culture.
"We used to go to Dillons to do our grocery shopping in French," Johnson said. "Or we would walk on cam
pus and go to the museums always describing what we saw in French. It is a great way to learn."
FESTIVAL
Johnson said students from African countries also attended the meetings so students had the opportunity to listen to different accents.
The next meeting of Le Cercle Francais is 7 p.m., Sept. 14, in the Barbara Craig Lounge of the French department.
Paqui Paredes and Mar Freire, both graduate students from Spain, organize Mesa Hispanica and Cafe Castellano. Both conversation groups have the same purpose but meet at different places and at different times so that more students can attend.
Paredes said students who attended the Mesa Hispanica tried not to speak English.
Cafe Castellano meets from 2:30 to 3:30 p.m. Tuesdays and from 2 to 3 p.m. Wednesdays, both in Wescoe Terrace. The Mesa Hispanica meets from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. Tuesdays at Alcove A in the Union.
"Even the ones who are shy or are beginning to learn Spanish have improved just by listening." Paredes said. "The have an opportunity to

hear the slangs, the different accents and talk about subjects that are more real, like the movies."
Marina de Fazio, instructor in French and Italian, said the idea of changing the Tavola Italiana's weekly meeting from the Union to a downtown restaurant helped to attract more students, faculty members and Lawrence residents.
The group gathers 4 to 5:30 p.m.
"Sometimes, people bring photos from a recent trip to Italy to show around or an interesting article from an Italian magazine to share with the others," de Fazio said. "The Tavola Italiana has been very successful and is a great opportunity for people to talk about Italy or speak Italian in a very relaxed atmosphere."

Language barriers overcome by group
By Pallavi Agarwal Kansan staff writer.
When two University of Kansas students met last year, they were English conversation partners, interested in each other's language and culture.
Since then they have become friends and roommates and have even visited each other's families, one of which lives in Seattle and the other in Taiwan.
Wenchen Huang, Taiwan graduate student and Rebecca Hupp, Bellevue, Wash., senior, are two of the 200 KU students involved in last year's conversation partnership program, which paired international students with American students who want to teach English and broaden their horizons.
"The idea is to help international students who get here and provide them opportunities to have American friends," said Len Andyshak, a coordinator for the program.
The program is sponsored by International Friends, an umbrella organization comprised of about 10 KU campus ministries.
Even though the program is sponsored by campus ministries, students are not expected to have any religious affiliations. Andyshak said.
Huang is not Christian and said that the program's Christian connections didn't bother her.
INTERNATIONAL FRIENDS
Students get together once a week and talk. Many of them get together for social activities and become

friends, Andyshak said.
This fall, the group has started a new Bible study course that will teach international students English through the study of the Bible.
Students will be shown pictures or cartoons of the Bible and asked to say what they saw.
"This will help in sentence construction and improve their vocabulary," Andyshak said.
The group also has two other Bible study sessions and an English conversation group for visiting faculty and scholars, in which they get together for a hourly conversation practice every week.
"Last week, we sang in Spanish. We have also sung in Chinese," Hupp said.
An emphasis is placed on making the experience of learning and teaching very international.
Before Bible study sessions, held every Saturday, students get together and sing hymns in other languages.

Grant benefits rape-prevention programs
By Jason Pearce
Kansan staff writer
Leaders for the Douglas County Rape Victim and Survivor Service will meet tomorrow to decide the most effective way to use $35,000 from a rape prevention and education grant.
The grant, which totals $233,248,
was distributed to 10 Kansas
services that deal with sexual-assault
issues.
Attorney General Carla Stovall and Kansas Department of Health and Environment Secretary Gary Mitchell announced the grant Aug. 28.
"The purpose of the grant is to enhance or develop prevention activities that decrease sexual assault against women," according to Stovall's press release.
Sarah Jane Russell, director of the Rape Victim and Survivor Service, said the grant would be used to enhance educational programs in the county that are aimed at preventing sexual assaults.
"We already work in the schools, and this will help us to expand our programs," Russell said.
She said that specific program enhancements or other uses of the money would not be known until after tomorrow's meeting.
The Rape Victim and Survivor Service, funded by Student Senate and the United Way of Douglas County, uses volunteers to educate and train people on how to prevent sexual assaults and to council victims of sexual crimes, Russell said.
During the last three years, the KU Public Safety Office reported that 14 rapes had occurred on campus, with seven of those occurring in 1997. The office also reported 11 other sexual assaults in the last three years.
But these figures do not show the whole picture, said Kathy Rose-Mockry, program director for the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center.
National figures showed that
rapes were very under-reported each year, she said.
rose-Mockry said that many studi les have found that while 25 percent of women may be raped before graduating from college, only 10 percent of those would report the incident.
"Many women are ashamed, embarrassed or afraid that people will not believe them," she said.

Award finances faculty exchanges with Ukraine
By Carolyn Mollett
University of Kansas faculty who are interested in Eastern European studies will have the chance to teach and do research in the Ukraine during the next three years.
Kansan staff writer
A $169,965 grant from the United States Information Agency will forge a formal partnership for faculty exchanges between the University of Kansas and Levi University in Leviv, Ukraine.
and Devil University," "This is all part of the chancellor's plan to make KU an international University," said Maria Carlson, director of the Russian and Eastern European Studies program (REES) and the writer of the University's grant proposal.
Chancellor Robert Hemenway will travel to Levich to meet the rekter — who holds an office similar to a
chancellor — of that university at the end of the three-year grant.
The University has had a connection with Leviv since 1992, Carlson said. The mayor of Leviv and the rektor of Leviv University both have visited the University of Kansas, and more than 20 faculty members already have participated in an exchange program.

Foglesong is one of two KU professors who will travel to the Ukraine this semester.
travel to the UK for his November trip: to settle administrative business between the universities, to select faculty from Leivit to come here and to begin research on the availability of legal services in Leivit.
Kurt Thurmaier, associate professor of public administration and REES, will travel to Leviv in December. He said he would discuss projects with the Leviv University faculty and would do research about the local government's budgeting and finance.
Some of the universities and faculties
The first Ukrainian professor will arrive in November. REES will serve as host to the visiting professors.
Most of the professors from the Ukraine who will come to the University are sociologists.
The Ukrainians will teach or participate in classes, will plan publications and conferences with their KU colleges and will do research and travel to conferences.

Renowned pianist to perform benefit for scholarships
Jose Sequeira Costa, Cordelia B. Murphy distinguished professor of piano, already has played in most of the great music centers in the world.
By Mariana Paiva Kansan staff writer
Costa has been a member of the KU music department since 1976. He has performed in New York, Paris, Washington, Moscow, London and several other international venues.
The cost is $5 for students and senior citizens and $10 for the public. The money collected will go to the University of Kansas' piano scholarship fund.
Costa will perform a benefit piano recital at 7:30 tonight in the Lied Center.
As a KU faculty member, Costa wants to help piano students achieve their own success.
"There are so many students who need help, need scholarships," Costa said. "Why shouldn't I help them?"
Tonight, Costa will play Chopin's "Ballade in F minor, op. 52." Debussy's "Suite Bergamasque," Liszt's "Reminiscences of Norma by Bellini," and Beethoven's "Sonata in F minor, op. 57." Passionate!
Costa has judged the Tchaikovsky International Music Competitions in Moscow six times.
In 1999, Costa will perform in London for the celebration of the 150th anniversary of Chopin's birth. He was one of six pianists invited to perform.
Costa said that unlike the big, urban cities in the world where he previously had traveled and lived. Lawrence was a peaceful environment in which to practice and to teach.
"My job in the University is to help piano students who are doing their master or Ph.D. and sometimes prepare them to participate in international competitions," Costa said. "Four of them have already won first prizes in different competitions."
Costa said students from different countries, espe

cically from his home country of Portugal, came to the University to study with him.
"I learned a lot playing with him," said Ben Sayevich, assistant professor of violin, who has played with Costa for eight years. "It is a challenge to play with him because you know you are playing with a person who has lived a long life dedicated to music."

Seniors solidify Kansas line

Linebackers key to strong defense for Hawks football
By Brandon Krisztal
Kansas sportswriter
They do what their name indicates, they back the line.
The strength of any good defense is its linebackers.
In a standard defense, there are either three or four linebackers on the field for any given play. The linebackers normally are behind the defensive line and in front of the secondary.
infront of the second base.
Kansas runs a base 3-4 defense with three defensive lineman and four linebackers. According to J.J. Johnson, senior starting inside linebacker, linebackers have a tremendous responsibility on the field.
"Basically the role of the linebackers on our team is to be the captains of the defense on the field," Johnson said. "We've got to get the defense lined up and make all the calls."
Johnson, 6-foot-2 and 235 pounds, is joined at inside linebacker by fellow senior, Steve Bratten, 6-1 and 235 pounds. Senior Patrick Brown, defensive co-captain, 5-11 and 210 pounds, and senior Hanson Caston, 6-2 and 235 pounds, start at outside linebacker for Kansas.
sible, to take the pressure off the line-backers by keeping the offensive lineman off us."
In the past, linebackers had to be big.
Kansas linebackers coach Mark Farley thinks the all-senior group anchors the defense.
"The main thing in a 3-4 defense like we play is that the linebackers are definitely the key to making plays," Farley said. "We structure the defense so that we can allow the linebackers to run freely to the football. The defensive linemen's job is to be gap-respon-

so they could stop runs and fill holes. As the offensive game evolved, the role of the linebackers began to include pass coverage, and one-on-one coverage of running backs.
Now linebackers need more than bulk and an ability to get to the ball.
"The first criteria we go for when we look for linebackers is speed," Farley said. "We have to have guys who have some size to them, and the No.1 criteria is the ability to run. If you can't run you can't play. It's a speed position. It's not so much that we're going to line up and ask these guys to go head up with offensive lineman. They're on edges and they have to use their speed."
Linebackers' responsibilities change every play. Linebackers could have to blitz the quarterback, play a run, or cover a receiver or back on a pass route.
"We're a balanced defense, so it's a left and a right side," Farley said. "We want to give a picture to the offense so that they don't know which side is coming and which side is dropping. All the line-backers have to have the ability to rush and drop and play man-to-man coverage."
"The main thing in a 3-4 defense like we play is that the linebackers are definitely the key to making plays. We structure the defense so that we can allow the linebackers to run freely to the football."
Mark Farley
Kansas linebackers coach
Because of their importance, linebackers receive a lot of attention. Johnson knows that linebackers face a lot of pressure, but he knows that he has to get his job done on the field.
"I concern myself with keying the offensive line, the guards," Johnson said. "Making sure I step in the right position. If I miss the wrong hole for a middle linebacker, I'm out of place. For an outside linebacker, they must keep contain for us and turn all of the plays back so we can finish."
McGwire, Sosa battle for hits and air time
The Associated Press
Baseball officials and Fox said Tuesday the network would televise all of McGwire's games from Sept. 11-13 if he reaches 60 home runs.
NEW YORK - If Mark McGwire hits 60 home runs by a week from this Friday, all of St. Louis' games will be nationally televised next week.
ESPN will televise Monday's opener of the two-game Cubs at Cardinals series, and FX will show the Cardinals-Cubs game the following day. ESPN is expected to the air the Cardinals-Pirates game Sept. 9.
FOX Sports Net—will broadcast two games involving McGwire and Chicago Cubs' Sammy Sosa, who also is nearing the 60 home-run mark, next week.
Chasing Maris record
Mark McGwire hit two more home runs last night in a 14-4 win against the Florida Marlins.
With four home runs in the last two games, McGwire has pulled within two of tying the major league record of 61 home runs in a season.
The Chicago Cubs' Sammy Sosa kicked his 56th home run of the season at the major league home runs in

Fans will see one of the games in entirety and the at-bats of Sosa or McGwire in the other game. Fox Sports Net still needs to clear channel space in New York and Milwaukee, which have local
games that night.
Fox will televise the Cardinals-Astros game Sept. 12 as part of its Saturday package and will show the St. Louis games Sept. 11 and Sept. 13 if McGwire has 60 home
runs.

Department tries to fill up stadium with free-ticket offer
During Saturday's football game, the ABC television cameras will, at some point, pull back on Memorial Stadium to capture a shot of the fans and the atmosphere surrounding the game.
But what the cameras may end up televising is a stadium about as full as the living room of those watching at home.
This is a fear of the Athletics Department, and one it is trying to remedy. Students, faculty and staff members of the University will get into the game free, without needing a ticket. They just have to flash their KUIDs.
This isn't just a friendly gesture brought to you by the department. It is a calculated move by a promotions department needing a full stadium so that the television cameras capture a capacity crowd.
It's all about exposure, and this Saturday the University wants as much as it can get.
Every coach, athletic director, booster and television executive knows that the more television exposure a team receives, the more attractive the program becomes.
That's understandable. After all, television is the ultimate aphrodite to lure new fans and, more importantly, new recruits.
TED BURTON
But if the crowd is small, and the cameras show a half empty stadium, then it is embarrassing for the network.
Kansas wants ABC to be happy with what it sees. If the crowd is large, then the network, which also is operated by the people who own ESPN, will see that Kansas is a school worth returning to.
Spencer Duncan
A few media coordinators and producers were very upfront about this fact. They all said the same thing: ABC wants ratings — nothing more, nothing less. Ratings bring in advertising revenue, and that is what it is all about — making money.
ABC feels confident only in the teams it televises if a few things happen.
First, the game has to be competitive. No one wants to watch a lopsided game.
When televised nationally, Nebraska draws a large audience, regardless of who it plays. But even it has problems. Once those games get out of control, which is often, people click off.
So when televising Kansas and Oklahoma State, the network is taking a risk. ABC needs the game to be competitive, or else no one will watch.
But the networks also want to know that there is an interest in the game.
"Honestly, one of the most embarrassing things we can do is pump up a game and then show images of a half-full stadium," said one ABC production staff member. "It makes us look bad."
And when they look bad, they don't come back.
And if they don't come back, Kansas loses.
The Jayhawks need exposure. And they could use some of the millions of dollars schools receive for television appearances.
The reality is that this team has a way to go before it can compete with Colorado and Texas A&M, and even farther before it can touch Kansas State and Nebraska.
Coach Terry Allen just wants to win and improve. That is the best way to attract better athletes.
The Athletics Department also wants a winning team. But until that happens, it would be nice if the team could at least win when it is on television.
And of course, the department wants a full stadium. But on Labor Day weekend, when many students skip town and the team has been above. 500 just twice in its conference in the past 16 years, filling the stadium is an impossible task.
The University should have given free tickets to the community.
Duncan is an Topeka senior in journalism.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Sept. 3).
10
Work is a challenge this year. You're learning more than earning, but don't complain. You're gaining valuable confidence. December won't go as planned, so stay flexible. Your dreams are most likely to come true in January.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 6.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Todav is a 5.
Something you've been thinking about replacing could be fixed instead. You don't know how, but a friend does. If you need to pay this person, it might be worth the money, but a trade also is possible. It looks like you have something else this other person needs, too.
Don't be dismayed if you run into an obstacle today. Life is full of obstacles, but they're only there to make us stronger. You might as well look at it like that. They're made to be dissolved, climbed over, crawled around or somehow managed.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 5.
A foreigner may have just the answer you're looking for — regarding your home or someone you live with, or a different way of looking at the situation there. Let people know what's going on with you. How else can they give you their sage advice?
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is a 6.
There's no shortage of money out there. All you have to do is find a need and fill it. You're good at that, too. Did you know that Cancer is the sign of the multi-millionaire? It's not just because you're good at taking care of other people.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 5.
July 29-August 27, 2021 Today is a day.
A partner is giving you a shove in the right direction. This person has more of an analytical mind than you do and is the one to help you plan your next move. Today, it looks like he or she has some very good advice and some confrontational but supportive coaching, too.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22); Today is a 6.
You have a greater sense of your own destiny, which is good, but the work is getting more difficult. You may not have time to meet with your friends today, but stay in touch. You need their encouragement and support. That's especially true of an older person who lives far away.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 6.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 5.
The dream you had last night could come true. It was probably a nice one, so don't worry if you can't remember it. You might run into a problem early in the day, but don't let that get you down. A surprising romantic development later makes everything else seem insignificant.
There's a situation to deal with at home. Something may be breaking down, or somebody wants to spend hours in seemingly meaningless conversation. The problem is that both you and the other person are set in your ways. If you can't reach a compromise, a stalemate might have to do.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 6.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 6.
Education is what you need in order to take the next step, you're in luck. This is an excellent day to start a new study program. It doesn't matter whether you go to school or pick up a book at the library. The point is that you are willing to take on something that once looked too difficult to tackle.
C
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 6.
Looks like you have bills to pay. While you're at it, throw in something just for fun. How about a down payment on a cruise? Even if you have to wait before you can go, start planning now. It's the carrot dangling at the end of the stick that's keeping you motivated. Make it a big, fat, juicy one!
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 5.
You need to follow through on something you've already begun. That could be paying off a debt. Looks like you're still negotiating something that will improve the quality of life at home, so don't worry about it. It's a tough decision and there are lots of variables.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 5.
What you're learning now is pretty technical in nature. You might even have to read the manual to find out what's going on. This is not your favorite thing to do, but don't despair. It might go slower, but the more you can manage to grasp now, the easier your life will be in the future.

Literally, Pride just returned from a 20-day trip to China and Taiwan as a member of the USA Women's Basketball Jones Cup team.
"Lynn is one of the top players in the country," Washington said. "When you have players like Lynn Pride, you want to make sure they're exposed to a certain level of competition.

Figuratively, Pride also has arrived, said Kansas coach Marian Washington.
*orner to perform as she did this summer, it reinforces that she can compete with anyone.*
But even though Pride, 19, is a Kodak All-American candidate, Washington says Pride sometimes lacks the confidence
of other top players.
If Pride needs a reason to believe in herself, she can look at what she did in the last few weeks.
On a team that included University of Tennessee players Semeka Randall and Tamika Catchings, Pride was the team's leading rebounder (7 rpg), ranked second in minutes played (26.0 mpg), first in steals (2.2 spg) and third in points (9.0 ppe).
She was the team's leading rebounder in three of its five Jones Cup games, including a team-leading 15-point, 16-rebound performance in the opener against Chinese Taipei.
"That's something I'm working on — becoming more of a leader," she said. "A lot of the girls on the team, this was their first year with USA Basketball. But I've been through it twice
Pride's play fits with her assumed role as one of the team's leaders.
before, so I knew what to expect, on and off the court."
Pride is slow to brag, but said her experience this summer was important to her game.
"Mentally, it helps me a lot," she said. "I got a lot out of it. Now, I know I am capable of competing with anybody."
The team first went to Beijing, China for practice games against the China National Team and Junior National Team. USA lost both games but finished 5-0 in its Jones Cup games, played in Taipei, Taiwan.
"Our confidence was down a little bit after those two losses," Pride said. "But after the first game in Taiwan, we got that back and played like we were capable."

Pride took care of her classes while she was gone.
"I talked to my professors before I left," she said. "That made it a little easier, they sent some books over."

ing Sosa's games on Sept. 11 and Sept. 12 if he has 60 homers.
"My head is about to explode as I think about all the scenarios," Goren said. "We will pull the trigger when they get to 60. But if one of them hits five home runs in the next four days, everything is out the window."
If McGwire hits them out

that it is available in about half as many homes as ESPN.
ESPN had offered to tele-
vise Tuesday night's game at
Busch Stadium. But baseball
officials opted to put the
game on FX, despite the fact
"We are obviously disappointed with baseball's decision," ESPN spokesman Mike Soltys said.
Baseball's dispute with ESPN about the placement of Sunday night games in September might have played a role in the decision to put the game on FX. ESPN tried to move the last three Sunday night games of the season to
ESPN2 to accommodate its new $4.8 billion deal with the NFL.
Baseball balked at the move and gave the games back to the teams to sell locally. Both sides have threatened to sue for breach of contract.
But baseball officials say they made the decision because they moved the Sept. 12 Cardinals-Astros games from FX to Fox and owed FX an additional
game.
FX has offered cable operators that do not carry the network a free one-night preview with no strings attached. It is uncertain how many operators will pick up the game.
"There is always a concern about the number of homes, but given the contractual obligations, we considered this the right thing to do," baseball spokesman Rich Levin said.
Former KU player wins award,honors from NCAA,state
Maria Abatoglou, a former University of Kansas women's tennis player, was named the Kansas Woman of the Year by the NCAA yesterday.
Abatogluou, who completed her athletic eligibility at Kansas last spring, received the award for her athletic and academic accomplishments. She was named to the GTE/CoSIDA Academic All-American first team the past two seasons and was named to the Phillips 66 Academic All-Big 12 and All-Big 8 teams three times — 1986,1997 and 1988— in her college career
Abatjoglou earned a 9-5 singles record and an 11-5 doubles record during her senior season. Abatjoglou also was a member of the 1988 tennis team that won the 1998 NCAA Central Region Championship last spring.
"This honor is a true testament to her commitment to athletics and academics," head coach Jenny Garrity said. "I think it's probably one of the biggest honors she has received because it awards her for hard work in both efforts."
The 51 state winners (including the District of Columbia) were chosen from more than 400 nominations.
Ten finalists will be announced later this month, and the NCAA Committee on Women's Athletics will select the NCAA Woman of the Year from among the finalists. The winner will be announced at an awards dinner October 18 in Indianapolis. Kansan staff report

Cyclist: Helmets must fit right

Head protection prevents injury, study reports

Wearing a helmet while riding a bicycle may not make a fashion statement, but it could save lives.
A 1996 study by the Harborview Injury Prevention and Research Center in Seattle about the effectiveness of bicycle helmets showed that helmets decrease the risk of head injury by 69 percent. They also reduce the risk of severe brain injury by 74 percent.
"The important thing is to wear your helmet properly," said Justin Hawkins, Overland Park senior and former president of the KU Cycling Club. "It needs to be level on your head, not sitting back. If you fall forward, you will hit your forehead."
Dan Hughes, a manager of Sunflower Outdoor & Bike Shop, 844 Massachusetts St., said that a bicyclist should be fitted for a helmet.
"There should be minimal play from front to back and side to side, and the straps should be positioned properly so that the helmet doesn't slide off," he said.
Bicyclists who want to be safe should purchase a helmet that has been certified by the American National Standards Institute and the Snell Memorial Foundation. Hughes said these organizations conducted rigorous tests on the helmets to ensure that a force hitting the helmet is not transmitted to the brain.
To help protect bicyclists from head injury, helmets are lined with a foam, expanded polystyrene, that shatters and absorbs impact during an accident, Hughes said.
Bicycle helmets can cost from $30 to $130.
"The lower-cost helmets may be hot, uncomfortable and only come in two sizes and cyclists may not wear them, which defeats the purpose," he said. "A $110 helmet, however, may come in five sizes. It fulfills the safety standards, but with less material. It has bigger and better vents, it's lighter weight and more aerodynamic."
Hughes stressed that there was no difference in safety standards between $30 and $130 helmets. They all pass the same standards.
replaced every two years because they deteriorate through time and the foam used inside the helmets wears out.
Hawkins said helmets should be
In addition to wearing helmets, bicyclists must follow the same road rules as cars.
"On the road, if you want the respect of someone who is driving a car, you have to behave as a car would," Hawkins said.
He said rules for bikes included riding as close to the curb as possible in the right-hand lane, not riding against one-way traffic and using hand signals to turn and stop.
"Many motorists don't understand, that under Kansas law, bicycles are legitimate vehicles, and bicyclists have a right to be on the road," he said.
According to a 1993 study by The Johns Hopkins Injury Prevention Center in Maryland, motor vehicles are involved in 90 to 92 percent of bicyclist deaths and 12 percent of injuries. The study said that more than 900 bicyclists were killed each year in the United States.

Park gives students outlet for adrenaline
By Sam Mellinger
Konson staff writer
Now that the days of playing with toy guns and G.I. Joe dolls have passed, paintable could be the next step for University of Kansas students.
“It's for people that aren't afraid. For some people, running around the woods is just not quite what they're into. But for others, it's great."
Ken Farris
many have discovered the enjoyment of arming themselves with paintguns and shooting their friends, said Ken Farris, KU graduate and president of Dropzone, the painball park in Lawrence.
KU graduate and president of Dropzone, the paintball park in Lawrenc
"They love it," he said. "It's a huge adrenaline rush."
At Dropzone, 1029 Douglas County Road, teams of 10 to 15 people participate in four-and-one-half-hour sessions. After learning safety rules, teams compete in a series of 15-minute games waged on playing areas about the size of a football field.
"It was really intriguing," said
Seth Lindsey, Liberty, Mo., sophomore, who has played twice. "Usually we play a little capture-theflag game, but I was more interested in shooting people than getting the flag."
The fields have borders, and team members are distinguished by different colored streamers on their guns. The guns shoot about 285 feet per second, and players are instructed not to shoot from closer than 10 feet.
Once hit with the vegetable-oil-based ammunition, a player is
eliminated from the game.
"you're supposed to, but I'm not too good at rules," Lindsey said. "When I get hit, I pretend like I didn't get hit and just keep playing."
While the game features some definite war-like elements, Farris said he didn't think any players had delusions of being in Vietnam.
"No more than with something like football or chess," he said. "It's the competition. You and some friends get together and go
against some other people."
Farris said most of his customers were males, ranging from groups of high school students to groups of co-workers.
Farris started Dropzone in 1989 while he was a student at the University. After having a great time at a paintball park in Wichita, Farris was hooked.
"It was a lot of fun, and I realized there was no place around here to do it," he said.
Through the years, Farris has seen many people have similar reactions.
"It's for people that aren't afraid," he said. "For some people, running around in the woods is just not quite what they're into. But for others, it's great."
Count Lindsey among the latter. "I felt like I was the king of paintball the second time I went," he said.

Press is on for pick-up basketball games
Teams have several places to hold court

batt in basketball. Dwayne Peterson, special events supervisor for Lawrence Parks and Recreation, said that the outdoor basketball courts in Lawrence were high quality.
"All the courts are pretty much comparable in what they offer," he said. "Dad' Perry Park is the newest court in Lawrence, at 12th Street and Monterey Way. It has one full court, it's fenced in, has water fountains and restroom facilities."
Peterson said that the two most popular courts were Watson Park. Seventh and Tennessee streets, and
Veterans Park, next to Lawrence High School.
"During the summer months, those two courts really see a lot of use," he said.

Irland and France.
"They just resurfaced those courts, and it's not that far from where I live," he said.
Boydston said the biggest advantage to playing pickup in Lawrence was the level of competition.
"Back home, you can run the courts, and you know how good everyone is that you play with," he said. "But in Lawrence, the competition is a lot stiffer, and you never know who is going to show up at the courts or how good the competition is going to be."
Matthew Dunn, Lawrence resident, likes to play pick up at the new court at 'Dad' Perry Park.
"The court there is pretty nice, and I usually go there about an hour before sundown and a game
will be going on," Dunn said. "I think other courts have better competition and the crowd there is usually pretty small, but it's fun to just drive over there real quick and get a game in."
Brandon Bauer, Mulvane junior, said his favorite place to play was at his fraternity house.
"Usually after lunch, we've got guys out there shooting around. On the weekends, you can get a game going anytime," Bauer said.
Jonathon Langford, Lawrence resident, said fewer pick-up games were being played in Lawrence.
were being played because "I don't know why, but it seems to me that three or four years ago we were playing everywhere. Now you have to look harder to find a court that runs full," he said.
Boydston said the number of outdoor games recently had declined.

Style is inspired by military garb camping wear
By Steph Brewer
Kanson staff writer
Kansan staff writer
When looking around campus these days, it appears that students are gearing up to hike up a mountain rather than the Hill.
Cargo pants and hiking boots have moved into the fashion mainstream. Call it outdoor chic.
"It's amazing how popular they are right now, across the country and especially in Lawrence," said Kendra Smalter, brand representative for Abercrombie & Fitch, 645 Massachusetts St.
Like all trends, the tide could turn against outdoor
chic next season.
but Chad Kemper, a manager of Sunflower Bike & Outdoor, 442 Massachusetts St., thinks cargo pants and their camping counterparts are here to stay.
"When they first buy it, they discover there's a lot more to it than fashion," he said.
Kemper said the quality of the clothing and its durability grew on people.
"I think people are realiz ing that this clothing costs a bit more but is comfortable and wears like iron," he said.
At Abercrombie & Fitch,

it's like they're buying adventure," he said. "They feel like if they wanted to migrate west and mine gold they could do that."
Megan Thornburg, Topeka sophomore, buys outdoorinspired clothing at Abercrombie & Fitch because it is comfortable. She said she wore one pair of pants every day on a trip to San Francisco.
"if you're going to spend quite a bit of money, you've got to put them to good use," she said.
"I probably wouldn't wear it hiking because it's expensive," she said.
Erin Young, Lansing freshman, said that she wore the clothing because it was stylish. She said she would not use it for outdoor purposes.
Young is not alone in her
utility-fashion leanings. In the September issue of Vogue, Amely Greewen writes of her quest to become a high-fashion street soldier. At one point, she goes to Rhode Island to visit her sister at an Air National Guard base.
"Once in the Ocean State, however, experience a surprising revelation: Army, Navy and Air Force are seriously sharp dressers," she wrote. "Not only are they driving some cool matte khaki (matte khakil) sporty utility vehicles, but they're showing what must be fall's fiercest look: flying suits."
However, not everyone seeks to be a fashion warrior. Kemper estimates that 50 to 60 percent of sport-clothing customers use the clothes for their intended purposes.
"There are definitely a lot of people in this town that use the stuff," he said.
Pools fight trespassers
Non-resident swimmers risk chance of fines misdemeanor charges
By Sarah Hale
Kansan staff writer
Whether it's because the strong summer heat is pressing down or because a late-night rendezvous sounds appealing, many students head to apartment pools to find relief.
dents head to apa- tment pools or venues. Although Lawrence apartment managers have put up signs, fences and locks to prevent non-residents from swimming, these measures won't keep out a determined student.
sures will keep out the door.
"I think that students assume that the apartment complex has better things to do than to actually prosecute someone for sneaking into the pool," said Beth Wegner, Lawrence freshman.
Lawrence freshman.
Wegner said that she and her friends had ventured to apartment and hotel pools when they felt like swimming.
in Kirk, property manager for Highpoint Apartments, 2001 W. Sixth St., said that even though the complex has locks on the pool gate, a sign that reads "trespassers will be prosecuted" has been more effective.
"Some students are too cheap to go downtown to the city pool and pay $2, that's why they sneak in," Wegner said.
"A couple of times, our overnight security have caught people swimming," Corrick said. "In those instances, the people were issued tickets."
Sgt. George Wheeler of the Lawrence Police Department said that people who sneak into swimming pools after hours could be charged with criminal trespassing. Depending on past criminal actions, this crime carries a maximum of one year in prison or a fine that the judge imposes. It is a misdemeanor, he said.
Corrick said that for the most part she was pretty lenient with non-residents who come to swim during the day.
"We're pretty lax about our pool," she said. "We have our rules that are posted, but we only enforce them if we have a problem."
Other apartment managers are not as tolerant with the non-resident daily swimmers. Linda Love, property manager of Park 25, 2401 W. 25th St., said that because many of the surrounding complexes lacked swimming pools, many of those residents assumed they can use other pools.
Love said that one incident this summer was particularly appalling. She said she had to ask several skinny-dippers to clear out during the middle of the afternoon.
"It's a constant battle keeping track of the residents and those that don't live here but come over to enjoy the pool," Love said.
"That's when it becomes a liability on the manager's part."
Abby O Halloran, Chillicothe, Mo., sophomore, said many students decided to sneak into pools when it's dark just because they wanted to swim in the evening. She suggested that apartment pools had a night when the hours are extended.

had because of overnight vandalism. Susan Armbruster, property manager, said students climb on the filters to get over the fence. This is when they break things or risk falling, she said.
"A lot of my friends want to swim at night, but they can't," she said. "One time, our apartment manager unlocked the pool for us so that we could swim without sneaking in."
"Because of this summer, if someone is caught in the pool after hours, we will be very strict, and they will be prosecuted," Armbruster said. "When they come in at night, they're usually drinking and who knows what else. Not only is it dangerous, but it's illegal."
Apartment managers want students to remember that the rules are in place for their protection. When it's dark and there's no lifeguard on duty, the risk of accidents increases.
Skateboarders face obstacles until new skate park opens

and get all my aggression out," Wexler said. Tuttle said he looked forward to this November, when the new skateboarding park was due to open at Centennial Park, Ninth and Iowa streets. He was a member of the Lawrence Skateboard Association, which planned the new park. Construction will begin in three to four weeks, Tuttle said.
But until the park opens, Tuttle and other skateboarders have other options; the old skate park in Burcham Park, Second and Indiana streets; and Lawrence's streets, sidewalks and parking lots. But Tuttle is leery of skating the streets.
"Whenever I'm stressed out, I can go skate and get all my aggression out. Wexler said."

It is illegal to skateboard along most of campus and downtown.
So a lot of skaters stick to the skate parks, which was difficult this summer.

Coaches needed for local kids' soccer
bv Jodi M. Smith
University of Kansas students can coach soccer teams, either by volunteering their time or being paid at the Kaw Valley Soccer Association.
The League is broken down into three separate programs.

Deitemeyer was contacted by the league to interview for a coaching position and now coaches an under-12 coed team.
into three sets. The recreation program is aimed at children who want to learn fundamental skills. Coaches for this league are volunteers.
The Classic League is a competitive league within the city of Lawrence. Coaches for this league are paid.
The Premiere Division is the highest league. Children on these teams play in a competitive league in Kansas City. Coaches for this league generally are hand-picked by the Kaw Valley association.
The teams are composed of Lawrence-area children from ages six to 19. Those who sign up for the recreation league are placed on teams, but the Classic and Premiere Leagues hold tryouts. A fee must be paid, but there are scholarships available for children who cannot afford it.
"I do it for the experience, mostly," Deitemeyer said. "I want to be a soccer coach eventually, so I just want to give to the community; get my name out there."
Kati Deitemeyer, a Colorado Springs,Colo., senior is in her third season with the Kaw Valley Classic League.
The license can be acquired through a four-day licensing course scheduled during two weekends.
Frank Trovato, director of coach and player development, said that coaches for the upper two leagues must either have or obtain during their season a class-D coaching license.
Deitemeyer said that the enthusiasm and excitement the children show every day made the experience worthwhile.
"They get so excited at the most little things," Deitemeyer said. "Every day, they want to know what their ranking is, and they got so excited when we beat the first-ranked team. You would have thought they had won the World Cup."
The Kaw Valley League is looking for coaches for the recreational league. Those interested can contact Haley Bruns at 841-2648.

Camping can be wild trip
Great outdoors is perfect escape for KU students
By Angela Johnson Kansan staff writer
When Chad Kemper went camping two years ago, he looked up and saw a clear night sky above him. Not a chance of rain, he thought, so left the rain fly, flaps which help keep out rain, off his tent.
The next time he looked up, it was 3 a.m. and rain was coming through the tent.
"I was wearing only my shorts, and the rain fly was outside the tent," said Kemper, a manager of Sunflower Outdoor and Bike Shop, 844 Massachusetts St. "I went out to get it, and chickgers had gotten all over it, and they got all over me. I was a mess."
Wendy Schwab, Stillwell junior and Sunflower employee, said she was going to Current River in Missouri over Labor Day.
"A friend and I are going canoeing down the river for three days, and we'll be camping alongside the bank," Schwb said.

conform to.
"Don't bring too much," she said.
"Be sure to have comfortable shoes and a lot of water."
Kemper said that he and a couple of friends would be camping at a private lake just outside of Stull, a town west of Clinton State Park.
"I always take a tent now, and I always leave the rain rain on," Kemper said. "It seems every time I go camping, I end up in a huge storm."
Mike Fine, program coordinator for the Kansas and Burge units, operates Wilderness Discovery, a group that rents camping equipment to KU students and faculty, on the first level of the Kansas Union in the Jayflower.
Fine said they provided everything needed to go camping; tents, sleeping bags, lanterns, cook stoves, backpacks and ice chests.
"We price our equipment reasonably," he said. "Two people could go camping over the weekend for $25 and have everything they need."
Camping areas within an hour drive from Lawrence are Clinton Lake, Perry Lake, Pomona Lake and Lone Star Lake, Fine said.
Jerry Schecher, park manager for Clinton Lake, said there were two types of camping sites at Clinton Lake: improved and primitive.
The improved areas are for motorhome camping and are water- and electricity-ready, Schecher said. The prim$^{+}$ive areas are for campers who bring sleeping bags and tents.
Besides the usual mosquitoes and chiggers, campers also should be aware of snakes, Schecher said.
"Venomous snakes lurk in the warm areas, like rock lodges, asphalt and in or around bathrooms," he said.
Trail mixed for hungry hikers
By Melody Ard
Kansan staff writer
Students looking for a change of scenery in their walks or jogs can drive 20 miles south of Lawrence to find a 33 mile-long rail trail that winds its way through eastern Kansas.
The first phase of the Prairie Spirit Rail Trail, running from Richmond to Welda, opened in 1996. The second phase, from Ottawa to Richmond, opened Tuesday.
"We have more than exceeded our expectations of traffic on the trail, and we expect that it will increase with the opening of the second phase," said Joyce Martin, president of the Friends of the Trail club. "Hope
fully next year they will start on phase three. I think that would interest a lot of bikers who like the longer trails."
The third phase of the trail would begin at Welda and end in Iola, extending 50 miles south and creating a continuous path between Ottawa and Iola.
The town of Garnett is the center of most activity on the trail because it houses the local office of the Wildlife and Parks Department and was instrumental in starting the trail.
we are right in the middle of the trail," said Stacy Schulte, Garnett Area Chamber of Commerce director. "We see a lot of people come through."
Trail heads have restrooms, picnic areas, vehicle parking and posted trail information. They are in Ottawa,
Princeton, Richmond, Garnett and Welda.
Towns can add amenities to the trail inside their city limits. Ottawa and Garnett have landscaped the trails with native vegetation and have made the trail asphalt, rather than crushed limestone.
Daily permits, which are $2.50, and annual permits, which are $10.50, cover use of the trail. Permits are sold at the Garnett Area Chamber of Commerce, Garnett City Hall, the Franklin County Clerk's Office and Country Mart at Ninth and Main streets in Ottawa.
The trail is open during daylight hours. Groups may contact the Garnett Chamber of Commerce to schedule special events or times for use.

Ultimate Frisbee fans rough it up,join clubs
By Laura Bokenkroger
Kansan staff writer
This is not your parent's game of Frisbee.
Anthony Maltese, Overland Park junior, said when he and his friends played their weekly Ultimate Frisbee games, an injury or two was possible
"Ultimate Frisbee is a cross between football and soccer. But we make it more of a contact sport than it should be."
"Ultimate Frisbee is a cross between football and soccer," Maltese said. "But we make it more of a sport contact than it should be."
"We decide how big the playing field will be by how many players show up," Maltese said. "If there's only three people, we don't want to be running up and down the field."
Maltese said that he and his friends used to play basketball but that it was not as fun because some players were not as good as others. The pain of crashing on asphalt also contributed to the change to Ultimate Frisbee.
The game begins when one team throws off the Frisbee, Maltese said.
Maltese and his friends are not the only ones to catch on to the Ultimate Frisbee trend. All around Lawrence, students gather at empty football and soccer fields to participate in pick-up games.

"We just keep passing it up the field until someone drops it or misses it, which is an automatic turnover," Maitsea said.
Overland Park junior
All year, students can participate in organized leagues, including an Ultimate Frisbee club team through the University of Kansas.

practicing for the fall club season, which is open to all ages. The college season begins in the spring, and the Kansas women know living up to last year's success will be a challenge.
Last year, the Kansas women placed first at Sectionals and were seeded first in their region.
But last year's seven players were exhausted from all the traveling they had done — trips to Austin, Texas, Clemson, S.C., and Baton Rouge, La. — and opted not to participate in the postseason.
it was really frustrating," Kerr said. "That's why we want a lot of numbers for this year."
Obstacles promote teamwork
Kerr said the Ultimate Frisbee club team practiced at 4:30 p.m. Thursdays at the fields at 23rd and Iowa streets. Anyone can go, and no prior experience is necessary.

At Adams Campus Challenge Course, they are the names of obstacles.
The course offers 14 challenges that focus on group interaction and on building confidence in individuals, said Bryan Christensen, director for Adams Campus Challenge Course.
The program requires each group to overcome the 14 physical challenges. Each group has a trained facilitator, who describes the physical problems at each station and helps the group decide how to overcome each challenge.
"I think it's a great program because it forces people to work together." Christensen said. "It's a
great way for groups to get to know each other."
Afterward, the facilitator leads a quick discussion and determines what the group members learned while interacting.
Some challenges include scaling a 14-foot wall and swinging on a rope across a designated zone while holding a cun full of water.
Recently, a group of about 50 Student Senate members participated.
"I thought it was a really great way for Student Senate to break the ice," said Kevin Yoder, student body president. "I think the faculty did a great job of putting us in situ-
tions with people that we didn't know very well."
The challenge course is located on Adams Campus, about 12 miles southwest of the University of Kansas near Clinton Lake. The campus has two permanent pavilions with running water and toilets.
Christensen said that about half of the people who participated in the course challenges were affiliated with the University.
The cost for a group of 15 people is $90. Students may call to sign up for a day and time to participate in the course. The course is open all week, and the programs usually run from either 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. or from 1 to 5 p.m. The course is closed mid-November through March 1.
Anyone interested in more information about the challenge course may contact Bryan Christensen at 864-0794.

It's hard work to be a soccer fan in the United States.

The Nando Times, an online newspaper,
has a wonderful soccer news section at this address. If it happens in
the world of soccer, you can read
about it here, from the J-League to
MLS to Serie A to the Spanish
Primera.
They also have two magazines from the United States, the excellent and the inexpensive *Matchday* and *Soccer*, a kids magazine.
At Borders, the selection seems to vary from month to month, but on the shelves now are Onze Mondial, the "world" version of the French magazine, and the venerable World Soccer.
While Onze seems to be geared toward teens, that's my level of French, so it works for me.
World Soccer is the most complete print source for scores and standings on the planet, but it's hard to justify spending $5 on a magazine for a few interviews because all of those scores and standings are available online.
So, now that you know where you can get information, here's my first look at the leagues you'll be reading about.
MLS. Although they will make it to the final yet again, two-time champions D.C. United will lose their crown
United's back four, with the exception of Eddie Pope, lack speed, and L.A. speedsters Cobi Jones and Welton prey on slower wing defenders (in this case, United's Jeff Agoos and Carey Talley or Geoff Aunger).
to the L.A. Galaxy, which will be playing in front of an 80,000-plus home crowd at the Rose Bowl.
Our hometown Kansas City Wizards seem likely to go out in the first round of the playoffs.
English Premiership: Defending champions Arsenal (London) should be able to hold on to their crown. Their defensive organization, led by captain Tony Adams, and their attack, spearheaded by Dutch international Dennis Bergkamp, are strong enough to withstand a full English season in addition to a Champions' League run.
Manchester spent $17million to buy Jaap Stam from PSV Eindhoven (Netherlands), a world-record fee for a defender.
Not to be outdone, Chelsea managed to pick up their own world-class central defender, Frenchman Marcel Desailly, from AC Milan (Italy).
If you have questions, comments,
etc., don't hesitate to e-mail me at
pknfrew@falcon.co.ukans.edu,
and your comment or question just might
go in the next column.
However, neither Chelsea nor Manchester will show the cohesion and efficiency of Arsenal, which will keep the title in North London.
Next time, previews of the Italian Serie A, the German Bundesliga and more.

Alumnus victim in Canadian plane crash
By Chris Fickott
Kansan staff writer
A University of Kansas alumnus was one of the 229 people killed in a plane crash late Wednesday night.
Kevin S. Kief, a 1988 graduate in economics, was on Swissair Flight 111, which crashed off the coast of the southeastern Canadian province of Nova Scotia about one hour into the flight. Tom Hutton, director of University Relations, notified University faculty yesterday afternoon that Kief had been aboard the plane.
Chancellor Robert Hemenway said that the crash was a tragic loss of life.
Kief was employed as a commercial account manager of NY Oils/Meals at the Continental Grain Company in New York. Kief is survived by his ex-wife, Susan Elizabeth Kief, a 1991 KU graduate in journalism.
"It makes it especially poignant and tragic when a member of the KU family passes away," he said. "We'll all think about him and pray for his family."
The pilot had reported smoke in the cockpit and was attempting to make an emergency landing at Halifax International Airport.
owssair said there were no survivors.
The fight was en route to Geneva, Switzerland, from Kennedy International Airport in New York.
While rescuers searched the cold waters off Nova Scotia through Wednesday night and yesterday morning for survivors, friends and family of the victims arrived at the airport to begin a desperate vigil, hoping against hope to hear that their loved ones were alive.
A similar vigil was unfolding at Geneva's Cointrin Airport, where more than 100 relatives of the crash victims gathered yesterday, sobbing and hugging each other. A piece of paper attached to the airport's arrivals board said the flight was delavel.
The scene at Kennedy was reminiscent of another summer night two years ago. The Paris-bound TWA Flight 600 crashed into the Atlantic July 17, 1996 minutes after takeoff from Kennedy. All 230 people aboard were killed.

GAS prices
by Chad Bottes
Kansas staff writer
Lawrence residents and University of Kansas students are enjoying gasoline prices that have dipped below 85 cents per gallon at local gas stations.
lowest in years
"Gas is cheap here," said Jenner James, Pittsburg freshman.
"At home, I was paying around $1.03."
The average price for self-serve regular unleaded gasoline in Kansas is $1 per gallon, said Janie Graziani, public relations manager for the Automobile Association of America.
The prices in this area are below the national average of $1.075 per gallon, according to AAA. The association also released statistics showing that gas prices are 18.9 cents lower now than at the same time last year.
Gas prices nationally are at a nine-year low, according to AAA.
"In general, the low prices are due to higher than normal oil inventory and lower than normal crude oil prices," Graziani said.
The U.S. Department of Energy said that the
tacnet Warkins, manager of Gill's Amoco, 2301 Louisiana St., said that the lower prices were because of low oil prices and high competition. Low gas prices are used by gas stations to
abundance of oil could be attributed to increased oil production and lower demand in Asia for gasoline because of its struggling economy. Garziani said that a warm winter in the United States was another cause for the oil surplus. There was less consumer demand for heating oil in many areas.
Paul Comolli, associate professor of economics said the prices were related closely to economics.
"Oil is subject to the economic principle of demand and supply," he said. "This market is also very sensitive to political events."
Comolli said that when the supply was abundant, crude oil prices would lower. Crude oil, from which gasoline is derived, is selling for a lower price than five to six years ago, he said.
Crude oil closed at $13.64 per barrel at the end of August.
or August. Dietrich Earnhart, associate professor of economics, said demand for oil would continue to increase in the United States.
"Low gas prices have encouraged people to buy cars with lower fuel efficiency," he said.
Examples he gave included mini-vans, Jeeps and outdoor utility vehicles.

Student finds medallion wins computer search
A University of Kansas student found the Apple Computer medallion Tuesday.
Elizabeth Schneider, Abilene freshman, found the medallion in the flower beds on the north side of Budig Hall. Schneider will receive an iMac computer from the Union Technology Center for finding the medallion.
"Winning the computer doesn't feel like it is real," Schneider said. "So many people could have found it, so I guess I am just surprised that it happened to me. I still have that feeling of shock."
After putting the clues together, Schneider said she decided to walk across campus and spend some time looking for the medallion. After spending about 45 minutes looking, Schneider spotted the medallion in the Budig flower beds.
To win the computer, students registered at the technology center and the Kansan posted clues about the medallion's location. Schneider said she used the clues to find the medallion.
Barry Norris, an account executive for Haddock Academic Technologies and the contest coordinator, said the contest publicity developed more technology center awareness.
Schneider will receive her computer next week from the technology center. She said she planned to purchase a scanner, printer and additional memory for the new computer.
The contest was sponsored by the technology center and Apple Computer Inc.

Man kicks KU employee, damaaes her vehicle
A 24-year-old KU employee was kicked and a rock was thrown through her car window late Wednesday night in the 1500 block of Harner Street. Lawrence Police said.
The incident began at 11:24 p.m. during an argument between the employee and her boyfriend, police said.
"In the course of the argument, he approached her and she maced him," Lawrence Police Sgt. George Wheeler said.
After she sprayed him with mace, he kicked her, Wheeler said.
"She then tried to leave in her car," Wheeler said. "The suspect then threw a rock through her car window as she was driving away."
The KU employee then drove to a phone and called police.
Police said that they went to pick him up at his house, where the incident occurred, but that they could
not locate him.
The damage to the car was $450.

Man attempted to rape KU student, police say
A man in his early 20s attempted to rape a 24-year-old KU student early Sunday morning while she was walking home from a friend's house, Lawrence police said.
The student was walking at 2:35 a.m. in the 900 block of Tennessee Street when a white male walked up and blocked her path, police said.
"The suspect then pushed her to the ground and attempted to rape her," Lawrence police Sgt. George Wheeler said.
Police said that she struggled with the man for a brief time and yelled for help.
"She screamed bloody murder," Wheeler said.
Her screaming alerted neighbors, and the man ran to a car and drove away.
The student then called the police, who arrived at 2:41 a.m.
Police interviewed witnesses from the neighborhood who gave descriptions of the man and the car.
Police then used the descriptions to identify the suspect.
Later that day, an officer interviewed the suspect, who told a different story. Police wouldn't comment on his story.
Police said they are now conferring with the district attorney about possible charges.
"I think we can get a conviction on this one." Wheeler said.

STATE Kansans for Life told to disclose costs of ad
TOPEKA — The state's largest antiabortion group must disclose expenditures associated with an advertisement during the Republican gubernatorial primary, the Governmental Ethics Commission concluded yesterday.
The commission's discussions about the Kansans for Life ad represent the first time the agency has tried to interpret a new campaign finance law. The law requires groups to disclose their expenditures if they produce independent advertising that expressly advocates the election or defeat of a candidate.
Kansans for Life sought an advisory opinion from the commission, which enforces campaign finance laws. In the letter, Tim Galba, the group's political director, said the radio ads cost about $750, and that the group publicly will disclose its expenditures if told to do so.
members intend to interpret the new law broadly, most likely requiring disclosure of expenditures on most groups' advertising.
But the commission's decision will have far bigger implications. Its

Hurricane from Gulf
RANAMA CITY BEACH, Fla. — Hurricane Earl pushed ashore early yesterday, lashing the Florida panhandle with 80 mph winds and torrential rain and threatening to bring flooding across parts of the Southeast. At least one person was killed, and three are missing.
the storm was downgraded to a tropical storm late yesterday morning after wind speed fell below 50 mph.
A tornado ahead of the main part of the storm damaged homes and killed one person on St. Helena Island, near the southern tip of South Carolina. A second person there was missing.
Two fishermen were missing after two companion boats capsized off Panama City when some of the windiest weather was coming ashore Wednesday night, the Coast Guard said. Four other men from the two boats were rescued with only minor injuries, one after clinging to debris for hours.
All 1,500 homes on the island as well as 20,000 customers across the panhandle lost power.
Water on moon lends interesting possibilities
WASHINGTON — As much as 10 billion tons of water may be frozen near the moon's poles, according to data from a lunar spacecraft—water enough to build a moon village or to fuel rocket ships cruising even deeper into space.
"There is an abundance of hydrogen at both lunar poles, and we interpret that to mean there is water there," said Alan Binder, chief scientist for the Lunar Prospector spacecraft now orbiting the moon. "There is at least one billion tons of water, but there could be as much as 10 billion tons."
In addition to sustaining life in such a colony, water also can be used for rocket fuel by breaking it into its constituent chemicals hydrogen and oxygen. Propellant for the space shuttle's main engines, for instance, is hydrogen and oxygen.
That would be enough to build a colony on the moon's surface and to operate a rocket service station for journeys beyond, he said.

Smith Hall windows broken
Recently installed safety glass foiled a vandal who attempted to break the stained glass windows in Smith Hall yesterday morning.
By Kelli Raybern
Kansan staff writer
After the unsuccessful attempt due to the safety glass, the vandal broke several office windows in the building, said Sgt. Troy Mailen of the KU Public Safety Office.
The incident occurred at 3:20 a.m.
This was the fourth incident of damage to windows in Smith Hall since April. This time, not only was the stained glass protected, but the KU Public Safety Office has a suspect in the incident.
Malien would not speculate whether the suspect was responsible for previous damage to Smith Hall.
"Only the investigation will tell that," he said. The suspect is described as a white male, 20- to 35-years old, with a medium-to-stocky build and dark, curly hair. At the time of the incident, he was wearing green shorts and a shirt with green
The windows were last vandalized July 12. That incident was discovered by Jeff Kuykendall, who was working for Phoenix Gallery, 919 Massachusetts St., and was repairing previous damage to the windows.
and white horizontal stripes.
Kukyendall said that he found half a cinder block on the ground in front of the damaged window and a message written in red lipstick just above the block that read, "Too Bad. Dream on. (Exptive)."
Mailen said that after yesterday morning's incident, the suspect headed south toward Spoon Hall.
Anyone who may have been in that area in the early morning hours and who may have seen anything suspicious, or anyone who has any information about the crime should contact the Public Safety Office.
Those with information who wish to remain anonymous can call KU CrimeStoppers at 864-8888. If the provided information leads to the arrest of anyone involved, tipsters will be eligible for a cash reward.

Board investigates different bus passes

By Monica Juarbo Special to the Kansan
Bus drivers don't like the new bus pass system. Students don't like the new bus pass system. Even the Transportation Coordinator for KU on Wheels doesn't like the system.
As a result of complaints from these three groups, the Transportation Board and Provest David Shulenburger on Wednesday afternoon and decided to look into separate picture identification cards to be used as bus passes instead of the new technologically advanced KUID, said Nicole Skalla, transportation coordinator for KU on Wheels.
The new cards, which Skalla said the University had agreed to pay for, essentially would re-implement the old bus-pass system.
In the old system, riders only would have to flash their card to the driver while boarding. Now, to board the bus, students must insert their KUIDs into an electronic reader.
Several students have complained that having to run their cards through the new electronic reader has slowed down the bus boarding process. Also, there have been problems with the readers malfunctioning.
"I know that a lot of people don't like them," said Saranne Lentz, Wichita sophomore. "I don't like them, and I wish it would change." The old system was so much easier."
Skalla said the University would look into ordering new identification cards and that she hoped to have them in two to three weeks. She said that because the card center had the students' pictures on file, new photographs would not have to be taken.
If separate bus-pass cards are implemented, then KU on Wheels would issue these cards at times and locations convenient to students. Skalla said.
"It may be a hassle," Skalla said. "But as far as we're concerned the smart card is not working, and issuing separate bus passes may be the only option at this time."
Lawrence Bus Company officials referred all questions to KU on Wheels. Lawrence Bus Company drivers would not respond to questions about the new system.
But one driver discussed the new system with a student.
"I asked one of the bus drivers what it's like with the new card system," said Patrick Brown, Leavenworth graduate student. "He does not like it at all. They are so slow, and they're running behind schedule."
Skalla said KU on Wheels wasn't allowed to put stickers on the new KUIDs.
"It wasn't our choice to go with the reader system," she said. "We wanted to keep the stickers, but we weren't allowed to put stickers on the smart cards, so we were forced to go with the readers."
"The readers were designed for hotel rooms. I don't know if the readers themselves have the capability to keep up with the amount of work we're putting them through."
Minority enrollment up an estimated 1 percent
By Jason Pearce
Kansan staff writer
The University of Kansas has seen a steady increase in the number of minority students attending class in the 1990s — and this year is no exception.
The Office of Admissions estimated that 10 percent of KU students were minorities this semester, up 1 percent from last fall. The University classifies African American, Native American, Asian and Hispanic students as minorities.
Actual numbers will not be released by the University until Sept. 24 because of the Kansas Board of Regents' 20th-day-ofclass rule. The rule gives the Umi-
versity 20 class days to complete add/drop and late enrollment and to compile final numbers.
Last fall, 2,266 students were classified as minorities. If enrollment remains at the same level as last fall, 25,108 students, more than 2,500 minority students would now be attending the University.
varsity.
Robert Page Jr., coordinator of multicultural recruitment, said faculty had not only focused on minority recruitment but also their retention in school.
"Students have to feel comfortable, have a sense of community and feel like they are going to succeed here," Page said.
To accomplish this goal, he said, the Office of Admissions
sponsors several on-campus multicultural programs each year for students who are considering the University.
Sylvia Chun, Merriam sophomore and Asian American Student Union member, said the University sponsored plenty of minority-based groups and programs.
"If you want to get involved, there is a group for everything," Chun said.
Page said the University emphasized a multicultural campus by using a diverse recruitment staff.
"We feel like anyone can be involved in multicultural recruitment," Page said. "We are looking for a holistic recruitment process that brings in a broad
cross-section of students."
This philosophy, Page said, had led to the use of students and faculty of different ethnicities for these recruitment and retention efforts.
One department that helps new students begin college on the right foot is the Freshman-Sophomore Advising Center, which began this fall.
Kathryn Nemeth Tuttle, director of the center, said that any freshman or sophomore who requested an academic advisor would be paired with one by the end of September.
"We recognize the importance of a diverse staff, and all students should feel comfortable in our office," Tuttle said.

Smarter is not better for bus passes
Despite a substantial improvement in the KU on Wheels program, buses on the University of Kansas campus still are behind.
KU on Wheels deserves applause for the new Park-and-Ride program, which may finally relieve some of the stress student commuters experience as they attempt to find a parking space on campus
Students are responding to this overdue idea. Nicole Skalla, transportation coordinator for Student Senate, said that about 170 passes had been sold and that the number probably would reach 200. KU on Wheels, however, will limit the number of passes sold to 300.
Another new feature of the busing program, though, has become a thorn in the sides of both students
Microchips in bus passes prove that technology is not always an improvement.
and bus drivers. This summer, microchip pass readers for the new KUIDs replaced the sticker system.
This new system poses two significant problems. First, lines to board the bus are considerably longer. It takes more time to stick the card in the reader and wait for the green light to signify that it is valid. Second, this new system lends itself to fraud more easily. The emphasis now rests on the green light, not on whether the student using the pass is the same as the one photographed
on the KUID.
on the road.
Furthermore, aside from making riders late, the delays make the system unfair. Bus drivers are experiencing increased pressure to complete their routes on time and have to compensate for the ridiculous amount of time it takes to load a bus. So, many times they don't even check students IDs to make sure that they have a valid bus pass.
Because the University owns the KUIDs, KU on Wheels is powerless to bring back the sticker system without consent.
It is obvious that University officials need to realize that technology doesn't always equal improvement. In this case, technology actually has become a serious hindrance. The green lights must go.

AC outages cause suffering in housing
As many students know all to well, extreme weather can make for an irrational mind. Minor problems take on the status of crises, and optimism drops with every degree the temperature rises.
Under the blazing sun, walking up the hill to attend class can be an Everest-size challenge. However, when students are in the residence halls they shouldn't have to deal with sweltering heat. Studying is nearly impossible without the benefit of air conditioning or at least a fan during the summer months.
This is why it is especially traumatic when the air conditioning in student housing fails. Within the first week of school, the system malfunctioned in residence halls.
Students have been left miserable with rising temperatures outside and inside.
scholarship halls, and Jayhawker Towers.
When it was not fixed for a significant amount of time — as long as two days at Jayhawker Tower C — students complained to the housing department. After phone calls from the parents of students, the air conditioning was fixed by the University.
It is understandable that the powers of the air conditioning units can be sapped in hot weather. However, it should be the top priority
of the Department of Student Housing and Maintenance to repair the systems.
Campus housing, especially in Jayhawker Towers, has very little circulation. Some students rented rooms at local hotels, and Tower C residents resorted to putting a wading pool in the hallway to beat the heat.
it is of the utmost importance that students have a cool and comfortable place to study and live, or else the quality of these students' school work could suffer.
The Student Housing Department should work quickly to fix the air conditioning as soon as possible and to maintain the units' general upkeep so they don't fail again.

Feminists had scandalous response to Clinton affair
America's state of sleepy contentment has largely blunted the impact of the scandal plaguing our current Chief Executive. Its effects will undoubt-

early be seen in election. 2000. The most significant impact President Clinton's sex scandal may have on our society is the unveiling of the traditional feminist movement as political, partisan, and void of principle.
PETER GONNIE
Intrigued by the numbers and in search of some perspective, I decided to have a chat with a few female acquaintances. My ears perked as I listened to one explain why she was not a feminist. "I don't consider myself a feminist," she said. "I consider myself an individual."
Watching the leading feminists of our day during the ordeal was an enlightening experience. Nina Burleigh, who once covered the White House for Time magazine said
And therein lies the true flaw behind feminism or, for that matter, any movement claiming to represent people based on gender, color or age. The assumption behind such claims is that all or even most people in such classifications should or do think alike and have the same interests in mind. This is clearly not the case.
of that group were familiar with one of the movement's most important leaders, Gloria Steinem. Questions involving the defining issue of abortion also were informative. The opinion was split — 45 percent anti-abortion to 44 percent abortion-rights — among all women and nearly a third of "feminists" described themselves as anti-abortion. All of these figures suggest that feminist orthodoxy has lost touch with the vast majority of women.
she would be happy to service him just to thank him for keeping abortion legal. The New York Observer contained a discussion in which 10 feminists seemed pleased that the President was "alive from the waist down."
These are shameful quotes indeed and are admittedly the worst I've come across. But perhaps even more telling is the deafening silence of many prominent feminists. Those who called for the head of Clarence Thomas and believed Anita Hill on her word alone have seen their courage shrivel when the irrefutable facts of the Lewinsky case and the comparatively more credible Paula Jones suit are mentioned. The threshold is clearly higher — or perhaps nonexistent — when a Democratic president cheats on his wife with an intern nearly as young as his own daughter.
For instance, one friend said she thought feminism was even "counterproductive" because she felt it damaged relations between the sexes. Yet another woman student I talked to thought that partisan politics and governmental action were exhausted as means to improve the position of women and said more focus should be placed on the "everyday mentality" of people.
own daughter:
The spectacle surrounding Bill Clinton's trysts, however, did not harm feminism. It merely served as the machinery used to detect the movement's blatant hypocrisy and isolation from the hearts and minds of most women. An opinion poll conducted for Time and CNN found that just 26 percent of women considered themselves feminists. Only half
Many men will find it comforting to hear that the man-hating literature of the feminist elite does not seem to resonate with the many women. Most women would, I presume, agree with Women's Quarterly editor Danielle Crittenden who, when commenting on the recent silliness of feminist leaders, said "I'd rather be barefoot at home than on my knees in the office."

University's buildings alleviate heat, boredom
These are the times when we all feel like bugs trapped under a giant magnifying glass and the days seem longer than any Western Civilization lecture even could hope to be.
This time of year, every guy senses that loss of "cool" that comes from seeing the reflection of his forehead glistening like a newly, dewed leaf in some high-school biology video. Oftentimes, this reflection is seen in the glass of a door that has been opened in hopes that the ladies passing through aren't die-hard feminists.
While the benefits of warmer weather may seem enticing - most notably, the small amounts of clothing

just on enjoying the outdoors.
On days like these, students should take advantage of one of the campus' most outstanding features: Air conditioning!
However, one cannot just enjoy the freon-charged air, standing around and admiring the spongy texture of off-white cinder blocks.
The fact is, not only are the buildings on campus air-conditioned, but quite a few of them are rather interesting, as well.
There's an art to avoiding heat. A certain technique must be used that cannot be achieved by simply wandering aimlessly. A search that goes beyond finding the nearest restroom for paper towels with which to swab the sweat off one's face must be undertaken.
Finding the various nooks and crannies of interest around campus is an accomplishment that cannot be attained simply within leisure time. No, you've got to skip some class. So, for the public good, I have sacrificed valuable hours of educational lecture time in order to explore this great campus.
Searching out the faculty offices may also prove interesting. Examine the various newspaper clippings, magazine articles and comic strips that adorn the office doors. See how your teachers fight for individuality amongst the rigid sameness of the Wescoe corridors. If the word math is used in a Ziggy cartoon, you'll probably find it somewhere in Snow Hall.
Additionally, the cases often will contain student projects, or whatever else the faculty finds interesting. Awards, pictures from botany trip trips and faded construction paper are all popular.
Although the University's hodgepodge assortment of architectural styles may have the appearance of being planned by someone smoking crack, each building has a reason for its existence.
Sometimes I find it enlightening to just walk the halls of buildings that house classes I'll never take. Being an English major, just about anything associated with science is foreign and entertaining to me.
Stop by Lindley Hall and check out the "rock of the week." Not only do they give a little biography of sorts about the rock, but they display it on a spinning plate.
For a simple way to kill time, most buildings offer glass cases with photographs or artistic renderings of distinguished professors, politicians or anybody else that might have a building named after them.
Finally, if you see one thing while attending the University of Kansas, make it the falling cow display in the basement of the Natural History Museum of Dyche Hall. I kid you not, a giant hole referred to as the "Natural Trap" has been excavated by some university researchers. The hole, until covered, was big enough for a car to almost fall through. The fate of a few cows wandering nearby has been forever preserved by plastic, plaster and glass for all to see. Do check it out.
"This building was erected in 1950-something and dedicated in the memory of whomever, noted teacher, author, philanthropist, closet cross-dresser and blood donor."

Columnist ideas for Saferide explored
Rodger Woods, in his column about Saferide, makes some valuable and salient points. Yes, Saferide's hours could be seen as inconvenient for those not using it to get home from bars. Also, it would be nice if local alcohol distributors and bars would sponsor ads on the sides of Saferide cars. The trouble is, both of these options were explored by Student Senate last year, and both are highly unworkable. Saferide's hours have been out
because the cost of operation has gone up. This is why the night bus routes were made free of charge. Further, Senators Whitney Black and Molly McNearney worked to get local bars and distributors to put ads on the sides of the cars. None of them were willing — not because they were opposed to the idea, but because there was no good way to avoid theft.
The cars are leased, not owned, which precludes painting, and one can imagine how long a Johnny's Tavern or Budweiser magnetic sign would last on cars that are left unattended
at the Union between runs.
Obviously, Saferide and the student body as a whole would benefit from an alternative source of funding. I, for one, feel that a voluntary donation box with a lock would provide a significant amount of extra operating funds. That's just one thought, of course, anybody with other ideas should feel free to drop by the Student Senate office and discuss it with Transportation coordinator Nicole Skalla or anybody else that happens to be there. We're always on the lookout for new ideas.

Guide gives KU high marks
University ranks among best buys
By Melody Ard
Kansan staff writer
The University of Kansas ranked as a top university in the latest round of rankings from the Fiske Guide to Colleges and U.S. News & World Report.
The Fiske Guide rates colleges on a star system in three categories: academics, social life and quality of life. The University received four out of five possible stars in each category.
The University's accounting, theater, journalism, child language development, finance, film and television and architecture programs were identified as attributes. The
University's study abroad program and the scholarship halls also were praised.
"We are very glad that they singled out the study abroad program." Margareta O'Connell, director of study abroad said. "We are one of the top programs in the United States in variety of choices as well as quality of the program. It's important to have a strong study abroad program in order to attract qualified students."
The guide is compiled by Edward B. Fiske, The New York Times education writer. Three hundred colleges are chosen annually for profiles, which are developed from interviews, questionnaires and surveys.
Amanda Matthews, Salina junior, said she wasn't surprised he University ranked well on national lists.
"I think the individual schools here all produce strong students," she
said, "We've also got a lot of good professors who don't just work at KU but have activities all over the world."
The University was among only 21 universities nationwide that were listed as "Best Buys" in the guide.
Colorado topped the Big 12 with a five-star rating in two categories, followed by the University of Kansas and the University of Texas both with three four-star ratings.
Other Big 12 schools included in the guide were Baylor University, Iowa State University, the University of Missouri, the University of Nebraska, the University of Oklahoma and Texas A & M.
In addition to the Fiske Guide, the University of Kansas was ranked as No. 30 in the 50 best public schools and was listed in the second-tier overall for national universities in the U.S.News & World Report Guide

Tunnel visions hit Murphy Hall
By Mariana Paiva
Kansan staff writer
A 64-mile water tunnel will be reproduced in Murphy Hall this weekend.
The New York water tunnel is the theme of Marty Pottenger's ploy "City Water Tunnel #3."
The performance is part of the department of theatre and film's Labor Day celebration called "The Art of Work, The Work of Art."
Another part of the celebration is the inauguration of the Performance Resource Center and Laboratory in Murphy Hall.
The inauguration will take place at 6:45 p.m. today in Murphy's Inge Gallery. Pottenger will perform at 8 p.m. tonight and tomorrow in the Inge Theatre. Tickets cost $5 and are available at the Murphy Hall box office.
"I characterized the play as a docudrama," said Leslie Durham, graduate student in the department of theatre and film. "She interviewed a variety of geologists, engineers, secretaries, all kinds of people. She characterizes
Pottenger based the play on a real construction project in New York that started 20 years ago and will take at least 25 more years to be completed. The performance highlights some aspects of this $5-billion project.
the real people involved in the project."
Pottenger gained her construction skills working as a carpenter and contractor in Florida and New York. She decided to write the piece when she heard two workers talking about the construction. Ten years later, Pottenger already has won an Off Broadway Obie award and traveled throughout the United States with her play.
Durham said the choice of the play was perfect for celebrating Labor Day because although Pottenger's play shows daily life in a New York construction project, labor is a universal theme.
The performance tomorrow is dedicated to the employees of the department of facilities operations.
"They are kind of invisible people who do everything for us and don't get a lot of recognition for it," said Sharon Sullivan, graduate student in theater and film and event organizer.
She decided to bring Pottenger to Lawrence after watching her in a Women and Theater conference last August in Chicago.
"Potterting sees beauty in labor, sees aesthetic in everyday's thing. She thinks labor is fascinating and appealing," she said.
Tomorrow Pottenger will participate in a workshop teaching her

Researchers meet to discuss laser therapy
By Sue Franke
Kansan staff writer
Health care professionals from 30 countries traveled to America's heartland to discuss uses of low-level laser therapy as a medical tool.
Doctors, researchers, physicists, therapists, nurses, acupuncturists and scientists came to Kansas City this week to talk about how low-level laser therapy works as a tool for pain management, tissue repair and wound and skin ulcer care.
The meeting of the second congress of the World Association for Laser Therapy began Wednesday and ends tomorrow at the Ritz Carlton Hotel in Kansas City, Mo.
Low-level laser therapy is not approved for use in the United
States, although it has been approved in many countries including Canada and Japan, said Chukuka Enwemeka, congress chairman and professor in the School of Allied Health at the University of Kansas Medical Center.
"The Federal Drug Administration has said it can be used on a clinical, trial basis as an investigational device, but you can't use it as a therapy and charge for the service, and no one is going to treat a patient for free," he said.
Enwemeka is leading a clinical study at the Med Center using laser therapy to promote the healing of leg ulcers. He said he hoped that his study would lead to FDA approval of low-level laser therapy in the United States.
"The FDA has more rigorous requirements than most countries." Enwemeka said. "The FDA wants to see, in their hands, a clinical study that is double-blind with good experimental controls done in the United States. Studies do exist outside the United States."
Semion Rochkind, neurosurgeon, Tel Aviv, Israel, and president of the World Association for Laser Therapy, said the regulation committee in Israel was similar to the FDA.
Health care experts and the FDA will talk about what needs to be done in a panel discussion tomorrow.
The FDA wants to prove that laser therapy is both safe and efficacious, said Glen Calderhead, secretary-general of the World Association for Laser Therapy.
Rochkind, a leader in the use of lowlevel laser therapy with fetal tissue for treating spinal cord injuries, said he was conducting double-blind studies and expects low-level laser therapy to be approved in Israel in one-and-a-half years. He said he thought the therapy also would be approved in the United States within the same time frame.
Enwemeka said that low-level laser therapy was first used as a medical tool in the late 1960s by Endre Mester, a Hungarian radiologist. Mester used the laser to try to eradicate cancer in rats.
Calderhead referred to low-level laser therapy as the medical tool of the millennium because it brings pain relief and reconfigures scar tissue.

Former President Grover Cleveland signed a bill creating Labor Day in 1894.
jennifer Woodward
Williams agreed that the labor movement was seeing a resurgence. She said that 400,000 new members had joined unions in 1998.
Peaselea said that although conditions for American workers greatly had improved, unions still serves as advocacy groups.
Williams said that 5,000 union and family members gathered in Kansas City last weekend for a picnic. Other parades and observances are planned across the country this weekend, she said.
Labor is pushing for prevailing wage and fair-share legislation in Kansas. About 15 percent of Kansas workers are union members, but that number is on the rise because of recruitment efforts, he said.
Kansas is a right-to-work state, which means that workers can not be required to join a union, Peaslee said.
Social security, health care and pay equality are key issues to unions, Williams said.
Political pressure mounted as labor unrest escalated into rioting because of issues unrelated to the holiday. A way to recognize the worker's contributions to the country was the formalize the holiday.

"The labor struggle goes on as far as unions are concerned," he said.
Congratulations Chi Omega Class 1998!

'Your Friends & Neighbors' serves up cynical look at life
Kansan movie critic
Bv Jeremy M. Doherty
Most Hollywood pictures these days try to convince us that people, although flawed, are basically decent individuals who truly care for one another.
Neil LaBute's Your Friends & Neighbors, on the other hand, seethes with a cynicism so massive that it's nearly suffocating. Many will be tempted to dismiss this disturbing story about a group of self-absorbed yuppies as the bleatiness of a misanthropic mind.
And if it weren't for the humor and honesty within LaBute's film, those criticisms might carry some weight. Instead, LaBute (a University of Kansas alumnus) has created a movie that serves as both a cautionary tale about our material-obsessed society and is an often-uproarious satire of sex.
Your Friends & Neighbors is a dialogue-heavy saga about what goes on behind the fake smiles and hearty handshakes that people exchange daily. LaBute does not
JOINA
Ben Stiller, in a performance miles away from his gooey turn in There's Something About Mary, plays a turtleneck-wearing drama professor whose annoying habit of talking during sex is deteriorating the sanity of his live-in lover (Catherine Keener). Her frustration sends her into the arms of an artist's assistant (Nastassja Kinski), whose silent demeanor provides more than enough comfort.
judge his self-centered, often misogynistic characters; he lets the audience to form its own opinions.
Stiller, meanwhile, suddenly is smitten with the wife (Amy Brennan) of his overweight best friend (Aaron Eckhart). This doesn't appear to perplex Eckhart to any extent; his wife craves intimacy, but he's more than content to gratify himself whenever she heads for the bathroom.
The sixth character is played by Jason Patric, effectively obliterating any bad memories lingering from Speed 2, as a near-psychotic sexual predator. To him, women are nothing more than notches on
YOUR FRIENDS AND NEIGHBORS
In a novel twist, LaBute declines to identify any of these characters by name, and the city they live in never is named. The result is impressive — it forces the audience to acknowledge the reality of the movie's world and the relevance of its subject matter.

a belt. In one scene, he ridicules a sexual partner for menstruating on his expensive sheets.
many will wonder why LaBute goes to such extremes to shock and disgust. Your Friends & Neighbors is a deliberate, merciless film that refuses to moralize or condemn. In this era of movies that provide easy answers and cookie-cutter symbolism, we only can hope that he isn't asking too much of audiences.

Native American student group considers inclusive name change
By Steph Brewer
Kansan staff writer
Starting next week, the University of Kansas Native American Student Association may no longer be known as NASA.
At yesterday's meeting, Michael Yellow Bird, assistant professor of social welfare, talked to the group about changing its name to something more representative of Native peoples' culture, such as Indigenous People or First Nations. The organization will vote on the name change next week.
"Native American has this certain tone," he said. "...This wasn't America. Every time we use the word American, use the word Indian, it says a lot more about the people who colonized us."
having used terms such as Indian, indigenous peoples were not empowering themselves, he said.
"I use the term 'Indian' with affection ... in one way, it has that affectionate terminology," he said. "On a higher level, it's about colonization."
Christopher Columbus named
the indigenous people of North America "Indians" because he thought he had reached the Indies on his famous 1492 voyage.
"None of us are really Indian people," Yellow Bird said.
He illustrated stereotypes associated with the term "Indian" by giving a class survey. On one side of the paper, he asked students to write down words they thought of when they heard the term "Indian." On the other side of the page, he had them do the same exercise with the term "indigenous people."
yellow Bird called the results of the survey startling. He said examples of the words students wrote describing "Indian" were blood-thirsty and scalping. Examples written for "indigenous people" were here first and original people.
were here first and only people. "I'm using a colonizer's term to identify myself, and I won't do that anymore," he said.
anywhere, he has spoken. Indigenous people in British Columbia extracted an apology from the Canadian government for years of paternalism and racism, he said.
tity."
"They are marking the new millennium by reclaiming their iden-
Yellow Bird said by asserting their power, indigenous people finally could gain sovereignty in their respective nations. One of the ways indigenous people in the United States could do this was by not using the word American in identifying themselves.
NASA secretary Michael Nannauck of Kake, Alaska said that he supported changing the organization's name.
"The way he talks moves me," he said of Yellow Bird's speech. "It makes me feel passionate about who I am."
Nannauck said that a more accurate label would empower indigenous people and that the fact that people were discussing the issue was a sign of things to come.
Native people are gaining momentum and strength like never before in history since colonization," he said.
NASA president Raven Heavy Runner, Browning, Mont. senior said he also wanted the name changed.
"I think that it's important that we as native peoples educate ourselves about who we are," he said.
Coke is it for children of faculty as they cash in on soft-drink deal
By Angela Johnson Kansan staff writer
A select number of students have reaped the benefits of the University of Kansas' contract with Coca-Cola. Ninety-four students, 65 of them incoming freshmen, received the first Coca-Cola Merit Scholarship for the 1998-99 academic year.
The scholarships were awarded to children of KU faculty and staff. Students also had to score a 24 composite ACT score and hold a 2.5 grade point average or a 21 ACT score and a 3.0 GPA to be eligible. The scholarships were awarded for $1,000, $750, $500 or $250.
Elizabeth Boldridge, Lawrence freshman, received a $1,000 scholarship. Florence Boldridge, Elizabeth's mother, is the director of diversity programs in the School of Engineering.
"The people who look at the applications really consider that," she said. "It's all about applying yourself. There are so many kids out there with so much potential but they don't use it — it's sad."
Elizabeth, a member of Delta Gamma sorority and an ambassador for the men's basketball team, said the most important factor in applying for the Coke scholarship was getting her application in early.
Florence said her daughter applied for 31 scholarships last fall during Elizabeth's senior year at Lawrence High School. In addition to the Coke scholarship, Elizabeth received two Endowment merit scholarships from the University and a Martin Luther King Jr. Scholarship.
but it really paid off for Florence said her daughter realized the full impact of her efforts when her bill for tuition came in the mail and showed a zero balance.
"The application process was kind of overwhelming, but it really paid off in the end," Elizabeth said.
"That's when she realized she didn't have to pay anything." Florence said. "She did it."
thing," Florence said. As a single mother of two children, Florence said that she is more aware of the financial responsibilities of putting kids through college and that she instilled that value in her children.
value in her children.
"Her obligations are tuition and fees, which are taken care of," Florence said. "She understands the value of getting an award of this nature, but she also understands that she needs to maintain her accomplishments and use this as a springboard for other scholarships."
scholarships. Chancellor Robert Hemenway said the scholarship was a way of giving back to the faculty who had given so much to the University.
so much to the university.
"The people who work at the University are parents, too, and they're concerned about their children's education," Hemenway said. "We've invested two or three years into finding a way to help the children of our faculty pursue their education."
I am so proud to have been a part of this journey. I believe in the power of teamwork and perseverance. I am grateful for the guidance and support from my family, friends, and colleagues. I am committed to continuing my work and making a positive impact on the community.

The scholarship is not renewable, but students who have received the award are eligible to reapply, said Alan Cerveny, director of admissions.
"These are one-time awards, but it is very possible for a student to win again." Cerveny said.
The University plans to give the Coca-Cola scholarship annually, Cervey said. The number of scholarships awarded depends on the number of applicants and the amount of money available.
Florence emphasized that students should not limit themselves from applying for scholarships if they are not honors students.

"Elizabeth had over a 3.5 GPA in high school, but she was not in honors classes," she said. "These scholarships are very attainable."

Basketball recruits see best of University
This weekend, a new season begins for young athletes, a season full of promise and expectations.
By Erin Thompson
Kansan sportswriter
The start of the football season brings basketball recruiting season and the visits that come along with it. The University of Kansas men's basketball program works to schedule recruit visits when there are home football games so that recruits will have an opportunity to attend a game.
This weekend, Kansas will entertain two of the most highly-rated frontcourt recruits in the country.
Andrew Gooden, 6-foot-9 forward from El Cerrito, Calif., will be in Lawrence on an official campus visit. Nick Collison, 6-9 forward from Iowa Falls, Iowa, will be here on his fourth unofficial visit.
Recruits are allowed two official visits and an unlimited unofficial
visits. The difference between the two is that on official visits, the University pays for all activities and that on unofficial visits, the recruit must pay for his own expenses.
"The thing I remember most was how nice everybody is here," he said. "I would stress to a new recruit the student life and how friendly everyone is. It's hard to find a mean person here."
Eric Chenowith, sophomore center, was impressed with the friendliness of everyone on campus during his visits to the University.
These visits often make a lasting impression that influences a recruit's decision about where he will go to school.
During an official visit, prospective Jayhawks are matched with athletes. While on his official visit in 1996, Eric Chenowith was matched with Scot Pollard, Kansas basketball player from 1994 to 1997. Pollard provided
During his visit, Chenowith attended Late Night, the first official practice of the season, when Pollard proposed to his girlfriend Mindy.
Chenowith with lasting memories from his recruiting visit.
Although Chenowith's visit was out of the ordinary, most recruits follow a similar schedule.
Recruits have dinner with Coach Roy Williams on Friday night, then go out with their host player that evening. On Saturday, the recruit has a new host player and attends a home football game.
Sometimes, the food before the game makes more of an impact than the game.
"Before the game, we tailed,"
"Cenowith said. 'Coach Williams"
had some barbecue. I don't
remember what game it was
because we left early. Scot (Pollard) needed some rest."
Another stop for recruits is the Student Support Services office. Recruits and their parents get a
chance to speak with the Student Support staff about academics and student life at the University.
"I try to stress to them not to carry all their eggs in one basket," said John Jefferson, director of student-athlete life. "They need to balance both athletics and academics. Then if one basket falls, they'll have something to fall back on."
Jefferson said that the office stressed a five-year plan for graduation. The plan makes sure athletes leave the University as well- rounded people, he said.
"Parents like to hear this," he said. "They like to know there will be an extension of what they've been doing."
But one of the best things Kansas has to offer recruits is the basketball program, Chenwith said.
"Our basketball program's second to none," he said. "All four years they will be here, we'll be in the top five, top 10 and competing for a national championship."
Soccer team kicks off season down South
By Brad Hallier
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas women's soccer team has been training for three weeks in the hot and muggy Kansas summer.
This weekend, the team will play its first regular season games in hot, muggy Florida.
The Jayhawks begin their fourth season at 2 p.m. today at Florida International (1-0).
The Golden Panthers opened their season Sept. 1 with a 8-0 thrashing of Nova Southeastern. The Panthers scored five

At 1 p.m. Sunday, the Jayhawks will play the University of Miami (0-1) at Gulliver Academy in Miami. The Hurricanes began their season with a 3-0 loss to Jacksonville.
Coach Dan Magner said he did not know much

about the weekend opponents, partly because this was the first year the Hurricanes have had a varsity team. But he said he did know that Miami had sweeper Lene Ostergard and mid-fielder Katherine Surd, two former National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics All-Americans from the University of Mobile, the NAIA 1997 national champion.
Florida International has senior Jennifer Lieb, a first team Trans-Atlantic Athletic Conference mid-fielder last year despite playing only 11 games.
tradition here. It's a good test for us, and we hope the confidence we built in the Drury contest (a 2-0 exhibition win) carries over."
"You know with players like that, they will be competent," Magner said. "We hope to catch them off guard with our four seniors and experience."
This is the first trip to Miami for many of the players. Katie Lents, Overland Park sophomore, said the team looked forward to venturing to southeastern Florida.
Midfielder Erin Hon, Severna Park, Md., senior, said that staying focused on their own system of play was more important than knowing their opponents.
"Florida International has a solid tradition, both in men's and women's soccer," Magner said. "We are developing a
"It will be fun in Miami,but hot," she
said. "We've been working hard in practice, so I think we'll be okay. If we can get through the heat mentally, we can through it physically. I think it's good to get experience against different teams that we don't normally see." Magner said he wanted to see his team create chances and capitalize on them. He said
they devised plenty of options against Drury but that they lacked the finishing touch.
"We need to put our chances on the frame this weekend," he said. "We have to make the goalie work and have her earn her stripes.
Detensively, we need to play solid and aggressive. We'll really measure our weekend by these two standards."
While a weekend sweep would give the team confidence going into Tuesday's home-conference opener against Missouri. Hon said they had to concentrate on more than winning.
winning is always an important goal, but we need to focus on playing as a unit and creating scoring opportunities and finishing them," she said. "Winning this weekend would be a positive way for developing our system this season."

New season nets fresh attitude for volleyball team
By Laura Bokenkroger
Kansan sportswriter
The new age of Kansas volleyball begins today. The Jayhawks open their season today at the Western Michigan Early Bird Tournament in Kala-mazoo, Mich., with a new coach and a new attitude.
"It kind of starts a whole new era, and I think everyone is really excited," middle blocker Amanda Reyes said.
Through the changes, one streak has survived for the fifth consecutive year, the Jayhawks open their season with a tournament on the road.
The round-robin tournament pits the Jayhawks against Wisconsin Green-Bay at 12:30 p.m. today, then Western Michigan at 7:30 p.m.
All the opponents the Jayhawks will face this weekend are unfamiliar. The last time the Jayhawks met any of these teams was in 1995 when they played Western Michigan
Kansas will play Auburn and Indiana University Purdue University-Indianapolis tomorrow

1 in 1 tournament will be like a barometer," Bechard said. "We can see how all of our work in practice has come together."
Reves said that the competition would be a welcome change after weeks of practicing.

"We're working on team energy," Reves said. "We're trying to to keep everyone on the same level, just for team chemistry."
Benard said that the starters would not be set by tomorrow but that this tournament would provide insight as to who works well together on the court.
insight as to who works even better.
"I have nine or ten kids who are match-ready." Bechard said. "Those nine or ten kids are competing for six positions on the floor, so we'll try different combinations. I think this weekend will solidify some players in certain positions."
The Jayhawks spent practice yesterday working on game-type, six-on-six situations. Bechard said they would simulate certain circumstances in a game rather than keep score.
"System-wise, we know what we want to do," Bechard said. "We just have to be comfortable with how we perform."

"This is what you work for from the last game of last season until now," Albrecht said. "Everyone's really excited, and we want to win."

KU fans to get into game free with KUID
Finally, there's something free for Kansas students.
As a way of thanking the faculty, staff and students for their patience during the renovations to Memorial Stadium, the KU Athletic Department is allowing anyone with a valid KUID to attend tomorrow's football game for free. Each person also is allowed to bring a guest.
For those who attend, not only will they see a renovated stadium, they'll see a relocated football team.
When the Jayhawks take the field tomorrow for their match-up against the Oklahoma State Cowboys, they'll be surveying the field from a different perspective.
Because of the relocation of the Jayhawk locker room to under the west-side bleachers, the 'Hawks now will occupy the west sideline rather than the east one.
Because of this change, the walk down Campanile hill that Coach Terry Allen instituted last year also will take a different route. The team will walk down the west sidewalk of the hill rather than the east sidewalk.
Kansas braces for Cowboys' strong defense
by Jodi M. Smith
Kansan sportswriter
But they hope not.
The Kansas football team could experience a sense of déjà vu tomorrow.
But they hope not.
The Jayhawks open their season at 2:35 p.m. tomorrow against the Oklahoma State Cowboys, a team that runs a defense the 'Hawks haven't fared well against in the past.
In a 34-7 routing by the Cincinnati Bearcats last season, the Jayhawks
"When you think about Oklahoma State, the first thing that comes to mind is their defense," coach Terry Allen said. "They have great team speed on defense, and obviously with the nature of their defense and its style, it is a concern for us because we did not play very well against that particular style of defense a year ago."
produced, or rather failed to produce. 46 yards rushing and 99 passing, for a total of only 53 yards offense.
But, running back David Winbush said it wouldn't happen again.
"The guys that played against Cincinnati last year are playing against Oklahoma State this year." Winbush said. "We have our whole offensive line back, and they know what to expect, they know how the 4-6 defense is. I'm concerned, but I'm not worried. I have a lot of confidence in our offensive line."
Despite those concerns, the other team's defense isn't what is foremost in their minds. They just want to win.
"From what I've seen, watching film on them, they're a very good team," wide receiver Termaine Fulton said. "We're just going to have to go out there, buckle up our chinstraps and play football. It's not going to be an easy walk, as no game is."
Even though it may not be their biggest game, it is foremost in every player's mind.
And unlike last season when the Jayhawks opened with two home, nonconference games, this season they jump right into Big 12 action, and travel to Columbia, Mo., next week to take on the Missouri Tigers.

KU forum to discuss selling out education
Professor speaks on commercialization
By Chad Bottes
Kansan staff writer
The American studies chairman, David Katzman, will be speaking against the commercialization of the University of Kansas.
Katzman's speech, "The selling of the University: How Coke, smart cards and consumer and market orientation corrupt Universities and harm America," will be at tomorrow at Ecumenical Christian Ministries, 1204 Oread Ave.
SPEAKER
Who: David Katzman, American studies chairman
Katzman, who has a doctorate in history, said the academic community had not explored the ramifications of commercialization, including the impact it had on scholastic integrity.
What: A speech entitled "The selling of the University: How Coke, smart cards and market orientation corrupt Universities and harm America.
He also said that while he had a strong loyalty to the University, he
When: Noon tomorrow
Where: Ecumenical Christian Ministries, 1204 Oread Ave.
thought free speech and open discussion had not been allowed on this subject.
"A dictator is more efficient, but that doesn't mean that's the best way," Katzman said. "Two voices are better than one, and 10 opinions are better than two."
Money from commercialization can taint the neutrality of research and the credibility of professors, Katzman said.
Furthermore, he said, he had to subsidize education. He cited the example that he had a home office because there was not enough office space at the University.
In order for him to effectively work additional hours at home, he must pay the University a fee of $35 fee for a dial-in computer account.
"Where does it end?" Katzman asked.
"Where does it end? Katzhan KU. The speech is part of a 52-year-old KU tradition called the University Forum, said Thad Holcombe, pastor for ECM.
"Forums are a way to increase awareness about the direction of the University or society in general," Holcombe said.
Holcombe said he approached Katzman after the ECM decided that commercialization was now an important subject at the University.
He said topics addressed at previous forums included social, research and faith issues.
Katzman said he agreed to take on the subject because he had strong feelings about it.
Katzman and Holcombe are expecting a larger turnout than usual for the forum, which is open to everyone. Attendance usually averages 45, Holcombe said.
"Nothing I've done in 30 years at the University has generated this much interest." Katzman said.
Katzman has been at the University since 1969, starting in the history department. He served as associate dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences from 1980 to 1987. He became chairman of American studies in 1990.
Katzman also is a co-editor of a scholarly journal called American Studies, which is published three times yearly.
Lunch will be $5 at the forum. Reservations for lunch must be made by calling the ECM at 843-4933.
The speech will be followed by a question-and-answer period.

Multicultural Resource Center
Center to spend week honoring
Three years of awareness
By Steph Brewer Kansan staff writer
This week, the Multicultural Resource Center will celebrate three years of promoting diversity on the University of Kansas campus.
The anniversary celebration, "Growing in New Directions," will feature programs throughout the week.
Since 1995, the center has promoted multicultural awareness through programs and diversity training, said Gloria Flores, program director.
New aspects this year include a full-time staff for the center and the addition of "diversity resident assistants" to residence halls. The RAs will work as liaisons between the halls and the center.
"We hope the new directions we're growing in will help expedite the positive effect on the campus climate when it comes to perspectives people have on diversity." Flores said.
The center will commence its anniversary celebration at noon today with a book share and video-viewing program coordinated by Tashia Bradley, the center's graduate intern.
The book share will feature six students, faculty and staff who will have 10 minutes to read and discuss excerpts of their favorite books.

"They're books on different topics that don't necessarily have anything to do with racial or ethnic culture, but culture in general." Bradley said.
After the program, participants will donate their books to the center's resource room.
"It's going to help kick-off our month-long book drive," Bradley said.
At 1:30 p.m., four videos on diversity will be shown consecutively. Today's program also will feature the introduction of "A Multicultural Resource Guide," which lists speakers and programs on diversity. The guide, which will be updated annually, was drawn from information gathered from University faculty. (C) 2018.

The monthly brown-bag programs will continue throughout the year.
The center will wrap up the celebration Friday with tours, speakers, a reception and a showing of the works of Henri Donar Hendrich, a Lawrence artist and KU alumnus. Tours will run from 2 to 3 p.m. and the art will be displayed from 2 to 4 p.m.

At a later reception, Flores will announce a new award being sponsored by the center, the Diversity Award. It will be given in five categories: student, faculty, staff, student organization and administrative department.
Applications for the award will be available in the spring. The center will hold an April reception to announce the winners. Flores said there would be no specific criteria for the award.

Businesses labor while others play
Many KU students worked on holiday
By Carolyn Mollett Kansan staff writer
"I was one of the unfortunate ones. She could only let so many people off," said BarbWire bartender Markus Goodwin, LaJunta, Colo., senior.
Not everyone in Lawrence relaxed on Labor Day.
Restaurants still had to accommodate an influx of people all weekend because of Labor Day and the opening game of the Jayhawk football season.
Restaurant managers said the weekend was busier than usual because of the game and the holiday. Restaurants had more business yesterday than an average Monday.
"We are swamped," Brian Paden said yesterday. Paden is the co-owner of Sports Page Brewery, 3512 Club Parkway.
she said most were understanding.
A lot of restaurants on Massachusetts Street were closed for the holiday. Jason Wagley, Northbrook, ill., senior was the manager-on-duty yesterday at Quinton's Bar and Deli, 615 Massachusetts St. He said they were busier than normal because so many other places downtown were closed.
Many restaurants also had trouble finding employees to work on the holiday.
Eaton said she had to schedule a lot of students to work who had asked off for the weekend. But
"Scheduling was really hard because all the kids know they have the day off from class, and they plan to go out of town," said Shawnna Eaton, assistant manager at BarbWire Steak House, 2412 Iowa.
Goodwin said he was angry because he had looked forward to watching the football game with his friends and going to the lake for Labor Day. He acknowledged he would make more money than a normal weekend because he worked more shifts.
"It's more like opportunity costs," Goodwin said. "So I'm missing out on fun."
Kevin Trevino, Lawrence senior, also works at BarbWires, and didn't ask for the weekend off. He said it was the die-hard employees who worked this weekend.
"As far as the paycheck goes, it will help." Trevino said.
But not all students were concerned with boosting their paychecks over the holiday. Arrie Boden, Salina senior, has three jobs and said she wished she could have had the weekend off.
"I would like to have spent more time with my family," Boden said.
But Boden left Lawrence at 11:30 p.m. Friday and had to be back to work on Sunday.
Robin Lynn, general manager of Carlos O'Kelly's Mexican Cafe, 707 West 23rd, said the restaurant usually boosted its staff before Labor Day.
"We'll make sure we have people who can work Labor Day weekend before we even hire them," Lymn said.

Two Lawrence women uncover masturbator
Two 29-year-old Lawrence women saw a man masturbating Thursday evening at Riverfront Park, Lawrence police said.
The women were walking through the north Lawrence park at about 7:30 p.m. when they saw a man wearing only a black skim mask masturbating under a turnip bridge.
"The victims were walking north on the levee, when they saw the suspect standing under the bridge," said Matt Farna, Lawrence police officer.
"He had no clothes on, just a black ski mask over his head," he said. "And he was masturbating."
The two women looked away when they saw the man, police said. When they looked back, they did not see him.
Police are looking for a 6-foot tall 225-pound white male with a muscular build and very pale skin.
He is being sought for lewd and lascivious behavior.
There have been no arrests made in the incident. Police said they have no suspects.

NATION Environmentalists want Pikes Peak road paved
CASCADE, Colo. — Environmentalists say the future of Pikes Peak, a beacon to settlers and gold seekers when the West was won, is threatened by the road that 300,000 people drive each year to its 14,110-foot summit.
The group says the city, which operates the road through a separate enterprise, has ignored its own studies and the recommendation of the Forest Service that the road be paved to reduce environmental damage caused by the tons of gravel used to maintain it.
The Sierra Club, usually a strong foe of roads of any kind in scenic areas, is suing Colorado Springs and the U.S. Forest Service to force them to pave the 19-mile road. All but six miles are gravel.
City officials say they don't have the nearly $15 million needed to pave and stabilize the road, but environmentalists say something must be done and soon.
"Perhaps it's appropriate that they call it America's Mountain because like so many other things in America, they took it and trashed it," said Gail Snyder, Sierra Club member and a member of the Pikes Peak Advisry Commission.
The city shut down the commission after the suit was filed last month, saying Snyder's presence on the commission could harm their case.
WORLD Flight-data recorder lacks key information
HALIFAX, Nova Scotia — The flight-data recorder recovered by divers near the wreckage of Swissair Flight 111 contains no information from the six crucial minutes before the plane crashed, investigators said yesterday.
The chief crash investigator, Vic Gerden, said the flight-data recorder that was retrieved Sunday was in good condition and should provide more than 100 types of information ranging from altitude and airspeed to whether the plane's smoke warning lights were on.
But he said there was no data from the last six minutes before the MD-11 jumbo jet plunged into the ocean off Nova Scotia Wednesday night, killing all 229 people aboard.
Gerden said the data recording stopped once the plane dipped below 10,000 feet. A strong possibility, he said, was that the plane lost electrical power at that stage.
At the crash site five miles offshore, divers equipped with hand-need sonar searched 190 feet underwater yesterday for the plane's other "black box" — the cockpit-voice recorder.
If retrieved intact, the voice recorder would reveal other noises in the cockpit besides the pilots' conversation with controllers, portions of which were released Saturday.
That conversation was cut off 10 minutes after the pilots reported smoke in the cockpit and six minutes before the crash.

"We are all standing on the edge, and no time is left for settling scores," he said. "We must begin acting."
The vote sets the stage for a final confrontation between the president and his opponents. Yeltsin must decide whether to nominate Chernomyrdin again or find another candidate. If the Duma rejects Yeltsin's choice for a third time, the constitution requires the president to dissolve parliament and call new elections within three months.
Russia has been operating with an interim government for two weeks since Yeltsin brought Chernomyrdyn back after firing him in March.
Chernomydrin's efforts to win confirmation by parliament have left him little time to devote to the worst economic crisis since the collapse of the Soviet Union.
Indonesian students protest new president
JAKARTA, Indonesia — At least 2,000 student protests tore down the gates of Indonesia's parliament yesterday and threw plastic bottles at riot police during a demonstration against President B.J. Habibie.
Officers later corralled them in a parking lot, but the students vowed to stay outside the parliament until their demands — including Habibie's resignation and a trial for former President Suharto — were met
About 300 students who were still there more than,12 hours later were forced from the grounds early today by security forces wielding batons and carrying shields.
Student leaders said 10 protesters were injured during the eviction, which students responded to by throwing glass bottles and other objects. A police spokesman said five officers were injured.
police said they made no arrests. In a separate incident yesterday, thousands of people rampaged in the town of Kebumen, 220 miles southeast of Jakarta, burning and looting nine Chinese-owned shops and cars. There were no reports of injuries. One man was arrested.

KU student in fair condition after bike collides with van
By Keith Burner
A KU student from Ukraine is in fair condition at the University of Kansas Medical Center after the bicycle he was riding collided with a van Friday morning at the corner of Kentuckv and 13th streets.
Kansan staff writer
His condition has improved steadily since Friday, when he was admitted in critical condition.
By Saturday his condition had improved to serious. Yesterday it was upgraded to fair, a nursing supervisor at the Med Center said.
The accident occurred shortly after 10am. Andrei Marusov, a graduate student in public administration, was riding east on 13th Street when he struck a white Chrysler minivan after failing to obey a stop sign on Kentucky Street, Lawrence police said.
The minivan was being driven north in the west lane of Kentucky Street by Erin Reilly, a
Police said Marusov struck the front driver side part of the van and windshield. The windshield was shattered.
29-year-old Lawrence resident
Shawna Radcliffe, Lawrence resident, was waiting at the corner for Reilly to accompany her to a friend's funeral at a nearby church. She said she saw the accident.
- "I saw him run the stop sign and yelled for her to stop." Radcliffe said. "He hit the front left part and the windshield of the van and flinned up and hit his head on top."
Erin Dubois, Lecompont resident, was walking to the funeral when she saw the accident.
Following the accident, Marusov was taken to Lawrence Memorial Hospital for initial treatment but was transported by helicopter to the Med Center shortly after. Lawrence Police said. Reilly was not injured in the accident.
"I was walking down the sidewalk and saw him just flying through the air," Dubois said. "Then he was just living there."

Retiring aquatic center chief honored with his own day

About 100 people, including family, friends, lifeguards and swimmers, along with city representatives, came to the pool to celebrate Lockwood's retirement from the Lawrence Aquatic Center yesterday.
Bob Lockwood Day ended with a splash.
Lockwood retired after 30 years as the center's director.
"It's been a fast 30 summers," Lock-wood said.
Fred DeVictor, director of the Lawrence Parks and Recreation, opened the celebration by reading the proclamation that declared yesterday Lockwood's day.
Lockwood said he was honored that the city proclaimed yesterday his day but that there were others who deserved credit.
"Many of us here in Lawrence are fortunate to have had Bob as our pool manager." he said.
"I'm sure that for whoever gets a day, there's probably 1,000 others
that could take my place." he said.
DeVictor said that since Lockwood started in 1969, more than 2 million people had used the pool and tens of thousands of children had learned to swim there.
Maria Shuckahose, Lawrence junior, said she was fortunate.
For three summers, Shuckahosee has worked for Lockwood as a lifeguard.
"He's a great guv." she said.
Shuckahosee also works as a lifeguard at Robinson Center, where Lockwood will continue to work as director of pool facilities.
shuckahosee said working at Robinson was not the same as the aquatic center.
"It's a lot better working with him directly," she said.
Chip Malmstrom, St. Paul, Minn., senior, worked with Lockwood in Lockwood's gymnastics program for kids before he worked at the pool.
Malmstrom said in addition to being a great boss, Lockwood was a great influence outside of the pool. He said Lockwood would stand on
the sidelines at his track meets,
shouting advice.
"He's like a grandpa to me," he said. During the celebration, Suzanne Bidwell, Reston, Va., junior, presented Lockwood a t-shirt signed by all the lifeguards.
"We expect to see you at Robinson wearing that every day," she said.
Lockwood coached five varsity sports at the University of Kansas, including swimming and women's volleyball.
Mayor Martin Kennedy spoke during the celebration.
Kennedy said he was privileged to receive Lockwood's input about the new indoor aquatic center, which should be completed in 2000.
Kennedy announced that the meeting room at the aquatic center would be named the "Bob Lockwood Room."
"What a great facility that Bob gets to retire from," Kennedy said.
After 30 years at the pool, Fred DeVictor said he thought Lockwood might be ready for a break.
"Bob may not want to come back," he said.

Clean credit record pays off in end
Each year, credit card companies offer students and incoming freshmen an opportunity to improve their credit records. To some students, a credit card means a source of cash for emergencies or even frivolities when there is none left in the bank. Although students focus on the convenience, a credit card may provide them, they also should remember that every series of purchases made on credit comes with an obligation to pay for those purchases.
Instead of acquiring credit cards merely for convenient cash advances or small, high-interest loans, students should consider the possession of a credit card a chance to prove their fiscal responsibility to lending institutions — especially if they look forward to financing a loan for a business, car or home. There is no question that payments must be made on time.
Charges can mount quickly, so students should keep track and stay ahead of their bills.
Keeping a clean credit record is as simple as swiping a card through a strip reader. You can thankfully do both without any help from mom or dad. Students need not be reminded again that purchases charged to a credit card are similar to loans received from a bank. Credit card bureaus in charge of monitoring credit transactions are informed when a student applies for and receives a loan or a credit card and when a student fails to make any loan payments on time.
Charging with a credit card is convenient because most local businesses accept payments by credit card. If students are going to use a credit card as
their primary mode of exchange, it is necessary for them to keep a personal record of their purchases. It is much simpler and wiser to keep a list of major expenses than it is to remember how many rounds of drinks were charged to the bar tab the other night.
If students keep track of their charges, they already know how much they owe. They then pay as much of the total balance as possible, if not the entire balance.
If the entire balance is not paid, then whatever balance remains unpaid grows each day an amount depending on the card's annual percentage rate. The higher the APR, the faster an unpaid balance escalates.
Systematically paying credit card bills on time is essential to avoiding blemshes on credit records. If students ritualistically buy things with a credit card, they ought to ritualistically pay off bills.

Robinson is meant for education
Although it is a great inconvenience to students who cannot afford health clubs, Robinson Center is primarily an educational, — not recreational — building. Students crowd into the weight room during the limited hours of all-student access in hopes of getting fit but find themselves waiting in lines for most of their workout. Angry that the University of Kansas does not provide them with unlimited recreational hours, they denounce the University's lack of concern for physical fitness.
However, Robinson was created for the purpose of physical education, not recreation. Mary Chapel, director of recreational services, said Robinson's top priority is academics. New equipment is purchased and new programs are implemented each year to insure a top-of-the-line education for students.
Robinson Center ranks last in the Big 12 as a recreation facility for students.
Students who complain about the lack of an open recreation building may not be maximizing their options. HSES classes at Robinson allow students to exercise during the day, provide access to the highest quality equipment, and cost less than joining a health club and students receive University credit for working out.
That is not to say that the University is not in desperate need of a new recreational building. Bob Lockwood, instructor of health, sport and exercise science, said that Robinson is far behind compared to other universities' recreational centers and agreed that something needs to be done. Robinson is ranked 12th out of all recreational centers in the Big 12. When there is such a need for improvement, it is surprising that three years ago the proposal for a new recreational facility failed in a student referendum.
Until another vote is taken, students will have to battle long waits or take advantage of the quality education that Robinson does offer.

Wisconsin judgment threatens KU tradition
Partha Mazumdar Guest columnist
Perspective
PATRICK BROWN
In the fall semester of 1923, the two elected student governments of the University of Kansas, the Men's Student Council and the Women's Student Government Association.
Ten years later, these student governments proposed and implemented the student activity fee. They reasoned that because student organizations needed money, this fee was necessary. The fee was mandatory; the only students exempted from paying were according to the May 14, 1933 University Daily
tion, formed a committee to supervise the funding and budgets of all student organizations.
kansan reported "those students who would be forced out of school unless so exempted." The annual fee for 1933-1934 was $8.75; $6 paid in the fall and $2.75 paid in the spring.
This fee still exists, and you all know from your enrollment forms that the 1998-1999 school year fee is $428; $214 paid in the Fall and $214 paid in the Spring.
Since 1933, KU's student governments have overseen the fee and allocated as they and their constituents have seen fit. Of the $214 every full-time student pays a semester, $39 goes to the student unions, $86 to the health center, $4 to the construction of a new child care center, $20 to the Athletic Corporation, $13 to the Recreation Center, $3 to student media, $2 for campus lighting, $16 to campus transportation including the bus system and Saferide, $6 to finance programs for historically disadvantaged populations at KU, $1 to the University environmental center, and $22 to help finance student or student-centered organizations such as the Black Student Union, KU Environs, the Center for Community Outreach, the Lied Center, Headquarters, the Multicultural Resource Center, and Student Senate itself—I don't know where the other $2 goes.

On Aug. 10, 1998, the 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled on Southworth vs. Grebe — a case in which the plaintiff argued that University of Wisconsin student-fee monies should not be used to finance organizations that advo-
Because of a recent court decision in Wisconsin, our 65-year history of student control over their own student fees is now a matter of contention.
The court used no notice. Some of the objectionable Wisconsin organizations specifically mentioned in the case were the Campus Women's Center, the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual Campus Center, UW Greens, the Madison AIDS Support Network, and Students of National Organization for Women. Because Kansas is not in the 7th Circuit, this case does not immediately apply to KU, but any appeals court decision is important nationally, and the Kansas Board of Regents has appointed a committee to recommend policy concerning student fees. This committee will undoubtedly take Southworth v. Grebe seriously.
I disagree with the court's decision and hope that the Regents disagree as well. I further hope that KU students and the student government make a strong case to the Regents advocating this position.
The Associated Students of Madison — the University of Wisconsin student government
and Student Senate distribute money basically the same way; on a value-neutral principle. The student government has rules by which every organization it finances must abide. If an organization abides by the rules, it will get its money. The more established and successful an organization is, the more money it will get.
Although there are many reasons to disagree with Southworth v. Grebe, I will focus on one.
cate causes some students may disagree with. The court ruled in favor of the plaintiff.
Everybody will get money if the rules are followed, and it is Student Senate's job to evaluate how stable and successful an organization is.
If someone disagrees with the positions of an organization, he or she can form an opposing group and seek funding. Through this process, dialogue on campus is fostered and people throughout the University community benefit. However, if one agrees with the plaintiffs in the Wisconsin decision, neither group gets financed and there is no dialogue. A university is a place for the exchange and promotion of ideas, not the silencing of them.
And if one disagrees with how Senate is distributing the money, or believes it not being value-neutral, he or she can vote for a new batch of senators in the spring.
Just as taxes and tuition are mandatory, student fees should be mandatory as well.
The only exception should be the one from 1933: Inability to pay.

Financed groups provide interaction and support

money is for. Student groups provide a way for students to learn about civic involvement and provide opportunities for social interaction that is lacking in the classroom. Student groups also provide an even more valuable service to students that is often overlooked. By creating opportunities for social interaction, organizations can keep students from becoming socially isolated on campus and prevent students from feeling lonely or despondent. At the very least, it's good to have all kinds of student groups for students to join so members can identify and try to help members who become distracted with personal problems.
It's sad to see that a federal court in Wisconsin thinks it has the authority to tell college students what they can do with their student fees. I think an argument
To be honest, there are groups here on campus that I consider repugnant, and there are groups that I think receive too much money for frivolous purposes. But if a group of students pays money into the

major elections I hope that students here at the University will decide the issue is important enough to let our legislative representatives in Topeka and Washington know that we want something done about the problem and to prevent it from happening here.

Let your representatives know what you think.
dents with problems. I think every penny spent on student groups would be well-spent. Because of this, it offends me that an unelected courthinks it can control this aspect of campus life.
The benefits of student groups are important enough that it would be wrong for me to spend time trying to oppose the funding of groups I don't agree with. It goes without saying that there will always be someone who doesn't like your group, no matter what kind of group it is. I don't object to anyone having a negative opinion about an organization, but students and the rest of society (judges included) need to move away from the idea that it's OK to threaten the very existence of groups they don't like.
This recent court decision affecting student groups also brings up another serious problem that affects campus life here and elsewhere. That problem is apathy. Whether the problem is apathy about organizations, or the Student Senate, or politics, it is a problem that we cannot afford in this country. This federal court ruling is a perfect example of this. Because federal judges serve at the pleasure of Congress, you might think that Congress would be flooded with letters criticizing the ruling. However, it's not happening even though there's a major election is just two months away.

Seminar members balk at student's word choice
'Stewardship' raises questions in dissertation
By Pallavi Agarwal Kansan staff writer
Research on alien cultures and customs has its own trial by fire.
At a seminar Friday, a University of Kansas student found a roomful of people disagreeing about one word appearing in his paper.
The paper was a condensed version of an ongoing 67-page dissertation chapter written by Jay Antle, Baytown, Texas, graduate student. Antle was presenting his work for review at a Hall Center for Humanities colloumbium.
Both the chapter and the dissertation paper dealt with ways in which Native Americans in Central Montana relate to the environment, Antle said.
Much of the two-hour debate centered on the use of the word "stewardship," which the group considered to be an inadequate description of Native Americans' relationship with the environment.
It also raised the concern of academia about how to interpret foreign cultures in their research and prompted questions about whether such research should be attempted at all.
The predominantly Caucasian group of 17 considered the term stewardship incorrect in the Native American context.
"The word stewardship is a Western concept and carries a cartload of assumptions," said Jeff Crunk, Valley Mills, Texas, graduate student.
Ray Pierotti, assistant professor of systematics, ecology and environmental studies, agreed.
"To Native Americans, relationship with nature was one of connection rather than control." he said.
In cases where foreign cultures and practices are under scrutiny, correct interpretation becomes an added responsibility, said Donald Worster, Hall professor of American history and coordinator of the colloquium.
"When we develop a thought, it has to be precise and useful," he said. "People in that culture have to find it meaningful, not distorted."
Kevin Armitage, Crested Butte, Colo., graduate student, found the study of other cultures challenging.
"Cultures evolve and change," he said. "Evidence in many cases is partial. The discussion on stewardship was part of a larger, more profound intellectual problem on how to convey

information about cultures."
information about cultures." Some students said research on Native American cultural and religious practices was made more challenging with the absence of a written tradition.
Jim Leiker, Hays graduate student, said anthropological resources on the subject often are inaccurate and had to be used cautiously.
Pierotti said he disagreed with the whole idea of writing down oral traditions.
He said some Native Americans were reacting adversely to the recording of traditions, which were antithetical to the idea of these practices being oral.
The academic seminar was part of the Nature and Culture Colloquium that is sponsored by the Hall Center of Humanities to stimulate discussion of work-in-progress in the humanities and sciences by KU scholars.

Greek houses refurbished

other companies.
At least nine fraternity and sorority houses have decided to renovate their houses.
This summer, four greek houses finished improvements so members could move in by mid-August.
Sigma Alpha Epsilon, whose fraternity house was leveled Sep. 21,
1996, recently finished its $3.3 million construction project.
the chapter, the oldest at the University of Kansas, rebuilt its house using donations from alumni, said Brady Wagner, Sigma Alpha Epsilon president.
Epsilon pronouns:
"Obviously I associate the good times I had as a freshman with the house, so there's definitely nostalgia." Wagner said. "But this is great, too."
Wagner said the chapter added
handicapped access to a bathroom on each floor to meet building codes. The chapter also installed a new security system that reads ID cards and switched to sleeping quarters and study rooms, rather than just bedrooms.
One reason for the change was a tax break the chapter received for creating more space devoted to studying, Wagner said.
Kappa Sigma fraternity also completed a renovation process that began in June 1997 by spending $2.5 million to gut the house. It would have cost an additional $1 million to level the house, but alumni wanted to preserve the outside look.
James Howard, chapter president,
said the house added a new library,
TV room and dining room, along
with new carpet and furniture.
with new friends.
"We love it, it's incredible," Howard said. "Walking in the inside, you can't tell it's the same house."
you can learn the Sigma Kappa sorority finished renovation work that has been in the works for at least 10 years, said Lesley Walters, chapter president.
The $600,000 project, financed without alumni money, increased the size of the dining room , added room for 15 more residents and a new kitchen.
One reason Sigma Kappa remodeled was because of the house's need for a sprinkler system, Walters said.
While some chapters are finishing, others are beginning renovations.
Sigma Chi fraternity begins the most expensive renovation process at the University this October when foundation work begins.
Although minor changes were done about 10 years ago, the $3.5 million renovation will completely change the inside of the house.
change the history of the house.
Alumni members such as Phil Anschutz and Bud Adams are important benefactors in the process, said Greg O'Brien, chapter president.
Griffith Fraternity members will move out after first semester, but should be able to return August 1999.
All the rooms will have separate phone lines and Internet access.

Volleyball starts strong sets Kansas opener streak

The Kansas volleyball team ended one streak and began another this weekend, winning the Western Michigan Early Bird Tournament in Kalamazoo, Mich.

After finishing the weekend 4-0, winning all four matches in three games, the Jayhawks are on a 12-game winning

They beat Wisconsin Green Bay (15-10, 15-15,

cess. Reves said new head coach Ray Bechard was a bie part of that chemistry.
"Coach adds a lot of energy." Reves said.
"He has a sense of humor, and he's the kind of coach who makes you want to win."
Bechard, is the first volleyball coach in Kansas history to begin 4-0 in a season debut.
"We're pretty fired up right now," Bechard said. "We played well all weekend. To go through this thing without losing a game, that's something special."
All 14 players on the Kansas roster saw action this weekend, and Reves said it was an opportunity for them to identify their strengths and weaknesses.
Reves led the Jayhawks with 43 kills and 17 blocks last weekend, earning her fifth selection to an all-tournament team in two seasons.
Big 12 officials named Reves Big 12 Player of the Week yesterday, making her only the ninth player in Kansas history to receive conference player of the week honors.
"I think it says a lot about the rest of the team when the MVP is a middle blocker." Reves said. "Middle blockers can't do a lot without a good pass and a good set. If they can get the ball there, it makes my job easy."

All-Tournament Team
ST. LOUIS — Home run No. 61 came at just the right time and on just the right day for Mark McGwire.
His son was in the stadium. His dad was celebrating his 61st birthday. His biggest rival was in right field.
McGwire ties home-run record
The Associated Press
The historic homer flew off McGwire's bat yesterday, matching Roger Maris' record and leaving but one question: How soon will it be his alope?
McGwire immediately began celebrating after hitting Mike Morgan's fastball 430 feet to left field, typing the hallooled mark that has stood for 37 years.
And then, with a fist thrust high, he began his triumphant trip around the bases.
"As soon as it left my bat, I just threw my hands up," he said. "I knew it at that time. What a feeling that was."

"I was, like, in awe," McGwire said.
The 50,530 roaring fans at Busch Stadium stood all the while.
Chicago's Sammy Sosa, whose 58 home runs have pushed McGwire down the stretch, applauded from right field.

Waiting at home plate,
where McGwire ended his trek with a two-footed hop, was his 10-year-old batboy son, Matt. The slugger hoisted his boy in his arms and gave him a bear hug.
McGwine: Tied Roger马斯' report of 61 Home Runs.
The Cardinals spilled out the dugout to mob McGwire, and it took him a few moments to make it to the bench. But he didn't stay there long, springing back out to salute his father, Sosa and the Marris family, watching from seats on the first-base side.
McCwire acknowledged Maris' children by pointing his right index finger to the sky, tapping his heart three times and blowing a kiss.
"I he tapped his heart, like Dad was in his heart," said Kevin Maris, son of the former New York Yankees slugger.
The landmark shot provided a fitting present to McGwire's father, John. He was sitting in the stands celebrating his birthday — No.61, naturally.
what better way to say happy birthday," McGwire said. "I was driving to the ballpark, and I was saying that if it's meant to be, hitting the 61st home run on his 61st birthday, it's meant to be."
In all, McGwire has homered 15 times in the last 20 days.
"I was. like. in awe."

McGwire finished 2. for-4, adding a later ground single - he has 53 singles this season, compared to 61 homers.
Sosa went 1-for-5 with a single and struck out
with a runner on the third ending the game.
McGwire and Sosa, who have become friends throughout their rivalry, spent the early part of the morning at a joint news conference.
"Wouldn't it be great if we just ended up tied?" McGwire said. "I think it would be beautiful."
The Cardinals won 3-2, blunting the Cubs' bid to increase their lead in the National League wild-card race.

Cowboys overturn Kansas' opener
By Jodi M. Smith
Kansan sportswriter
He did just that — to an extent.
Kansas coach Terry Allen wanted to showcase an improved offense Saturday against Oklahoma State in the Jayhawks' season opener.
offense, including 228 yards passing on 17 completions.
But Kansas' offensive game was not all high fives and chest bumps.
Only once last season did the Jayhawks record more yards passing than they did Saturday.
Three turnovers cost Kansas the game, and that is something the Jayhawks can ill afford to continue in upcoming matchups.
Allen: Please with his team's offense, despite a loss.
T.
"Not make mistakes, not make mistakes," Bowles said. "Oklahoma State wouldn't have beat us if we hadn't made mistakes. We gave up interceptions and a turnover and stuff like that, and it just kills a football team, and we did that. We can't do that."
Running back Mitch Bowles knows what the Jayhawks need to do now to prevent further losses.
The three turnovers — two interceptions thrown by quarterback Zac Wegner and a fumble by Bowles — led to two of the Cowboys' five touchdowns.
"We can't turn the ball over," Allen said. "We did some better things as far as protecting the quarterback, but what happened in turnovers was our own worst enemy. We improved offensively, as I told you we would, and I think we will continue to improve there. If you were to grade Zac, he did some very good things, but obviously, he had some very critical, critical mistakes."
wegner counterbalanced his interceptions with two touchdown passes and the most passing attempts, completions and vards of his career.
But it is the offensive line that Wegner, Bowles and running back David Winbush think deserves the credit.
Winbush expressed the same sentiments. "I was pleased with the line today, honestly," Winbush said. "They're really ahead of what they were last year. We're going to be able to get better and go back this weekend and try to do something to Missouri."
"I thought the line did great today," Wagner said. "Those guys blocked their butts off. They've been preparing for this game for two weeks, and they've been seeing every look they've been given, and those guys blocked great up front."
And Missouri is exactly where sights are set now — beating Missouri on Saturday and

solving early-season problems before then.
"We need to learn how to handle the game-
type situation stuff," Winbush said. "All the
factors with the heat and overcoming the big
play when the other team makes one and learning how to bounce back from the adversity of that. Mostly, the mental part of the game."

'Hawks check OSU quarterback
By Brandon Krisztal
Kansan sportswriter
The season opener for Kansas against Oklahoma State could have gotten out of hand, if the Jayhawks had allowed quarterback Tony Lindsay to control the tempo of the game.
Lindsey, the Cowbys' sophomore quarterback who earned Big 12 Offensive Freshman of the Year last year, has dominated games in the past.
Instead, the Jayhawk defense neutralized Lindsay for most of the game — something they will try to do Saturday against Missouri quarterback Corby Jones.
Kansas senior linebacker J. J. Johnson said he was impressed by Lindsay's performance.
"Tony Lindsay is an extremely good athlete," Johnson said. "One thing about him is he is really a

Late in the first quarter, he rolled

vards for a touchdown.
His other touchdown was the nail in the Jayhawks' coffin, and Lindsay scored on a six-yard run. The subsequent extra point gave the Cowboys a 10-point lead with 1:21 left in the game.
Despite his scores, Lindsay said Kansas kept him guessing.
"They threw some stuff at me, special alignments that kind of had everybody on offense kind of rattled," Lindsay said. "They got their sacks and big plays, and I didn't know they we're going to be able to do all that."
Lindsay was impressed by the Jayhawks' ability to force Oklahoma State into making a number of careless mistakes that resulted in penalties or broken-up plays.

You have a good sense of what a quiet friend needs.
These types don't often speak up for themselves, so you become their representative. Don't be intimidated by an outspoken person. Make sure the minority position is voiced before any big decisions are made, even if this causes a delay.
Cancer (June 22-July 22):Today is a 6
You're smart right now, and you'll need every bit of that intelligence. Someone wants to know every detail of a recent transaction. Plan ahead by figuring out the bottom line. Where's the money? Who's got it? Who wants it? How much will be needed?
Lea (July 23-Aug. 22) Today is a 9.
The moon's still in Aries, bringing out your feisty side
Aries makes you think you can do anything — then
actually get out there and try. You could take on a
challenge greater than any you've ever attempted.
Virgo (Aug, 23-Sep, 22);Today is a 6.
You're in a good spot to see what your future holds.
Today, you could figure out how to get the money you need by working with a partner. Even something you've been dreaming about may be possible.
P
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 5.
The moon is in Aries. Sometimes that's uncomfortable, but it's always empowering. Aries and Scorpio are both ruled by Mars, so when you two get together, awesome things happen. Even your clashes can be invigorating.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23); Today is a 7.
It looks like something needs to be handled in private, with an aggressive person. This is a conversation you should have had by now. Stop procrastinating and get started on it ASAP. If you remember to come from love, your communication will be far more effective.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is an 8. You're being pushed to succeed, whether you want to or not. This could mean more money and more responsibility for you. You don't mind the money part, but you may be a little worried about the other. Don't be alarmed. You'll get used to it. And you'll be much better at this new assignment than you think.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 6. It looks like you could find a household item you've been seeking. It just means going a little farther away than usual. Or you could simply step up to the next higher price range. You hate going into debt, but in this case it might be a wise investment.

New spirit squad members chosen
By Melinda Weaver
Kansan sports reporter
At the heart of every prestigious sports tradition lies enthusiastic spirit squads, those who don't receive the publicity but attend every game to keen fans cheering.
Wednesday and Thursday, the University of Kansas dance team, cheerleading squad and Big Jay mascot held auditions to select members for the 1999-99 teams.
"Turnout for the Big Jay mascot tryouts were disappointing — one. Brian Carpenter, varsity mascot, had hoped to find two others to help him. However, only Mark McLean, Scammon sophomore, showed up.
Tryouts consisted of a 20-minute run, a skit and the KU fight song. McLean only had to complete the run before being accented to the squad.
The following day he made his debut appearance at the Alvamar Country Club in front of the Chamber of Commerce. His performance convinced Carpenter.
About 40 people showed up for cheerleading squad tryouts Wednesday, which included tryouts for cheerleaders and well leaders.
"You can tell right away if they will make a good Jayhawk just by looking at them in the suit," Carpenter said. "They have to look like a Jayhawk instead of just a person in a costume."
Coach Ty Washington and his assistants made the first cuts and decided who would get to appear Thursday night for the judges.

"I hate being inactive," Nightengale said. "It's been a great experience, and I've gotten to meet a whole new realm of people."
While an audience was welcome at cheerleading squad trouts, the Crimson Girls and Baby Blues, the junior varsity squad for the Crimson Girls, held formal private trouts.
Dance instructors from the Kansas City area came to judge the women's kicks, leaps, turns and a dance. Women tried out in a private dance studio in groups of three.
A number of the women were curious freshmen with dance experience.
"I came to see what it's like," said Megan Passo, Tulsa, Okla, freshman. "I've never seen them dance or anything."
The competition is only a start. The two dance squads practice for two hours five daws a week.
"Everyone who walks through that door has tremendous amounts of talent," said Jessica Hoffman, St. Louis sophomore. "Everyone here is equal."
By Friday, McLean knew he would appear as the mascot for the women's games. Six women and five men made the cheerleading squad, and three new Crimson girls and four new Baby Blues attended their first practice.

Rivalry finds way to the soccer field
Jayhawk team encounters old foe Missouri today
By Brad Hallier Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas Jayhawks vs. the Missouri Tigers is a rivalry that isn't restricted to the hardwood and gridiron.
The Kansas women's soccer team (0-2) will square off against the archrival Tigers (1-0) at 4 p.m. today at Super Target Field. The game is the Big 12 Conference opener for both sides.
"There is no other Big 12 team we would like to beat more than Mizzou," senior defender Jackie Dowell said.
Goalkeeper
Jen Fecke
agrees.
SOCIAL FOOTBALL CLUB
"Missouri is a good team, and a win over them would be a
first for us," Fecke said. "This is our starting point for our journey to the Big 12 tournament. Since Kansas State doesn't have a team, this is the rivalry for us."
a team. This is tomorrow's game is the third meeting of the Kansas women's soccer team and Missouri. Missouri has won both past matches, including a 6-3 home win in Columbia last fall.
Missouri began its season Friday with a 7-0 thumping of Loyola, and Kansas coach Dan Magner knows the Tigers have a potent attack.
"Last year, we made mistakes against Missouri," he said. "At this level, if you make a mistake, better teams will punish you, and Missouri can do that."
Magner said his team made mistakes last weekend during a trip to Miami.
Friday, the Jayhawks lost 4-0 to Florida International. Magner said they had chances to score, but couldn't put them away.
Magner praised the work of the defense, including Dowell, Lindsey Loeffler and Sarah Korpi, but said the entire team would need to match that intensity against Missouri.
"All Big 12 games have to mean more than other games," he said. "Our ultimate goal is to get to the Big 12 tournament, and Missouri is our biggest soccer rival, which feeds off from other sports."
Dowell said they have changed their defense for the Tigers attack. Dowell will play sweeper tomorrow, while Kylie Watts, Cynthia Dahle and Loeffler will defend Missouri's three-forwards.
"If we can win our battles in the back, play hard — rough if we need to — we can win," Dowell said.
Magner agreed, saying the defense would need to mark Missouri's forwards tightly to be successful and that they would need to finish created opportunities. However, getting into a high-scoring shootout with the Tigers may not be a good thing, given the team's potent attack.
"I believe we can get them defensively," he said. "We would prefer not to get into a 7-6 game. It would benefit us to keep the score down. When we create an opportunity, it's our emphasis to put shots on the frame, not shoot just to shoot."

McGwire hits No.62; fans eagerly watch
By Sam Mellinger
Kansan sportswriter
He did it.
mark McGwire completed his pursuit of perhaps baseball's most prestigious record, Roger Maris' 61 single-season home runs, last night in St. Louis with a 341-foot line drive down the left field line off Chicago Cubs pitcher Steve Trachsel.
"That's my boy," said McCabe, who has taped McGwire's at bats as McGwire closed in on the record. "Geez, can you believe it?
The home run sent fans all across the country into a frenzy, including Tim McCabe. St. Louis junior.
"Mark McGwire is a modern-day legend. Someday, I'm going to be telling my kids I
watched him play."
Alan Potter, Iola sophomore, jumped from his seat as soon as McGwire made contact. "I am'ew-struck," he said. "He's a great guv. a role model."
McGwire jumped in celebration and missed first base after watching the ball clear the wall. After going back to touch first, he received congratulations from each Chicago Cubs infielder as he made his way around the bases.
McGwire was mobbed by his teammates after reaching home plate and picked up his son, Matt, who serves as a batboy for the team.
Now the record-breaking pressure is off.
Kevin Maris, Roger's son, coached Chad King, Kansas first baseman, during high school.
"Roger's wife, I talked to her about it. All the pressure, it was awful," King said. "Nowadays, everybody's supporting McGwire, which is good."
McGwire's unprecedented home run binge was the biggest story in sports this summer, sometimes even stealing headlines from the President Clinton sex scandal.
Mickey Venerable, Sports Page Brewery manager. sees the effects of McGwire's home
"We saw a big influx of people (when McGwire hit his 61st home run Monday)," he said. "It's one of the biggest media events going on right now, not just in sports, but around the world. When he's up, everybody's eyes are glued on the TV."
runsfirsthand.
The run at the record has millions — baseball fans or not — checking the news everyday to find out if McGwire went deep.
Count Kansas baseball coach Bobby Randall among those millions.
"You bet, who hasn't?" he said. "I follow it everyday in the paper. I'm like everybody else. I'm such a fan of it."
The record-breaker put McGwire four home runs ahead of Cubs slugger Sammy Sosa, who is on pace to finish the season with a total in the mid-60s, a number many others previously thought unattainable.
"I never thought it would happen," Randall said. "That's more than one every three games against major league pitching. That's incredible and something I just never thought would be done."
But just because McGwire is now the official single-season home-run king doesn't mean he's done. After all, the Cardinals have 18 games left.
Phone bills get bigger after FCC legislation
'Universal' fee imposed on telephone firms to pay for Internet access of certain groups
By Chad Bettes
Kansan staff writer
Students who went home this summer and didn't have to pay a phone bill were in for a surprise when they returned to school.
The fee is in response to a government mandate, said Kerry Hibbs, representative for AT&T Corp. He said the mandate required phone companies to help schools, libraries, low-income consumers and rural health-care facilities access telecommunications services such as the Internet.
Long-distance telephone companies are charging a new fee.
AT&T alone is expected to pay $1.3 billion this year. Overall, phone companies are expected to contribute $2.5 billion to the effort. While phone companies could
"I wouldn't mind the fee, but they're already making enough money," Coakley said. "They should find a way to pay for it without passing it along to customers."
Mary Coakley, Overland Park junior, thinks the purpose of the program may be good, but she said phone companies should absorb more of the charges themselves.
She suggested that large corporations make contributions or lead fund-raising efforts for the project.
Sean Kelley, Kansas City, Kan., freshman, said he did not mind paying about $1 a month because the money went to a good cause.
pick up the cost themselves, most are putting the cost on consumers.
"Now five or 10 bucks would be a different story," Kelley said.
"I already pay enough for long distance. It's just ridiculous." Coakley said.
UNIVERSAL SERVICE FUND
How does it affect the consumer: Long-distance companies have passed the charge along to consumers.
Who collects it: Long-distance phone companies.
What is it? Fund created by the FCC to finance improved telecommunications in rural and educational settings.
Kelley said that phone companies should share the cost out of their profits. The non-voluntary aspect of the program also bothered him.
"They shouldn't be able to put it on the bill without permission," Kelley said.
(USPS 650-640)
Hibbs said, "We are very much in favor of helping connect people to the Internet, but we cannot support the cost entirely."
As of July, AT&T began charging residential customers 93 cents per month, calling the fee a universal connectivity
charge.
The fee collected by AT&T is designed not to provide additional profits for the company, but to cover the cost of the mandate, Hibbs said.
The Universal Service Fund is a result of a sweeping piece of legislation called the Federal Telecommunications Act of 1996. One part of the legislation provided the FCC with the authority to assess universal service fees to long distance companies.
Business phone customers contribute but are on a different fee scale.
For example, the University of Kansas will spend about $25,000 a year for the Universal Service Fund, said Jan Weller, director of networking and telecommunications services.
Weller said the University selected Campus Link this year to provide on-campus long distance service. Campus Link uses the Sprint long distance network.
The fees paid by the long distance companies are sent to the Universal Service Fund, which was created by the Federal Communications Commission.
Administration to define plans for University at convocation
International experience better research seen as key
By Jason Pearce Kansan staff writer
Chancellor Robert Hemenway and Provost David Shulenburger will detail their plans of taking the University of Kansas into the 21st century this afternoon — their version of a State of the Union speech.
Faculty and staff convocation begins at 4 p.m. in 130 Budig Hall, Hemenway and Shulenburger will speak at the faculty and staff convocation about Initiative 2001, a long-term planning effort.
CONVOCATION
■ When: 4 p.m. today
■ Where: 130 Budig Hall
Tom Hutton, University relations director, said the speeches would
What: Administrators will discuss plans for the University's future.
"For the last nine months, a series of task forces have worked to make recommendations on these goals," Hutton said.
stem from Initiative 2001's three longterm planning goals - act as one University, serve Kansans and build learning communities.
Shulenburger said that he would focus his speech on building learning communities for undergraduates by revising the curriculum.
"I will talk about revising the undergraduate curriculum to include research experience and community service graduation requirements," he said.
He said that research experience could include students working on large research projects as undergraduates.
"Another part of my speech will focus on every student having a significant international experience during their undergraduate program," Shulenburger said. "There are nearly 2,000 international students on this campus, and domestic students should get to know the international students on many different levels."
He said that these proposals came from the Initiative 2001 task forces, which made the recommendations in the spring.
"I am serious about finding ways to do these new ideas," Shulenburger said.
Hutton said that between 150 and 200 people from various University departments recommended several other options for improvement, including a need to upgrade computer technology and to focus on continued educational success.
"Looking at the future of a university is a tough task, but when different levels work together, you come up with better ideas." Hutton said.
Hemenway said that he would talk about three major recommendations from each of the task forces.
"This is an opportunity for the University to plan for the future," Hemenway said. "We need to be able to act as one university by combining resources and faculty expertise."
He said that an important factor in the future of the University would be to serve as the research university for the greater Kansas City area.
Administrators recently changed the location for the convocation from 120 Budig Hall to 130 Budig Hall to broadcast the event to the University of Kansas Medical Center and to the University of Kansas School of Medicine-Wichita.

Student biker hit by car still in critical condition
KU student Dustin Heath Barnes has spent 17 days in the intensive care unit, and he remains in critical condition at the University of Kansas Medical Center after sustaining head injuries in an Aug. 23 bicycle accident.
Barnes, a Lamed senior, was riding his bicycle when it collided with a car at the corner of Seventh and Florida streets.
Lawrence police said Bames failed to obey a stop sign on Seventh Street and collided with a car turning left in front of him.
The driver of the car received minor injuries to her hands, possibly from shattered windshield glass.
Bob Hallinan, media relations coordinator for the Med Center, said yesterday that Barnes' vital signs were unstable and that he may not be conscious. He would not say if Barnes was in a coma.
KU student Andrei Marusov, who collided with a van while riding his bicycle Friday, remains in fair condition at the Med Center.
Hallinan said that Marusov's vital signs were stable and that his progress was excellent.
A 21-year-old Lawrence resident drove a stolen car into the porch of a Lawrence house House Sunday morning following a high-speed chase.
Police chase of stolen car ends with smashed porch
They discovered that the Blazer had been stolen from Topeka.
The 10-block chase began near the corner of 15th Street and Haskell Avenue when Lawrence police spotted the 1995 Chevy Blazer he was driving and ran its tags through their computers.
"The officer gave pursuit at that time," Lawrence Sgt. George Wheeler said. "The officer attempted to pull over the suspect. He wouldn't stop, and the chase continued west on 15th." Police chased the man to the end of Kentucky Street.
"When he got to Kentucky, he was going too fast to turn," Wheeler said. Police said the Blazer then jumped the curb at the dead end and smashed into the porch of a house in the 1400 block of Kentucky Street.
The man ran a short distance and was arrested by police at 3:38 a.m., police said. He was placed in the Douglas County Jail at 4:18 a.m., where he were, police said.
There were four female Topeka residents in the Blazer; two were 17-years-old, one was 18-years-old and the other was 20-years-old, police said. They face no charges in the incident.
The porch collapsed and had to be braced to remove the Blazer, police said. The damage to the house was estimated at more than $500.
Police said they did not know what the damage to the Blazer was.

Arrest for battery made after shoving incident
A KU student was arrested for battery at 1:30 a.m. yesterday at Jayhawk Towers. According to a police report from the KU Public Safety Office, a 19-year-old student pushed his girlfriend, a 20-year-old KU student, outside his apartment in Tower C at 12:55 a.m. yesterday.
The police received a call at 1:04 a.m.
and arrived at the scene at 1:05 a.m.
The report said the victim had gone to the student's room to retrieve property she had given him. He told her that she wasn't going to get the property back.
He then pushed her in the chest with both hands as she attempted to enter his room. She felt backward and hit her back on a wall.
The incident was witnessed by another student.
The report indicated that the suspect cooperated with police and was unarmed. The suspect was released from Douglas County Jail yesterday, and no charges were filed.
Police investigate triggered lab alarm
The KU Public Safety Office dispatched a police officer to Simons Labs to investigate an intrusion alarm that was activated at 9:27 p.m. Friday.
According to a police report, the officer arrived at 9:30 p.m. and found one of three doors at the main entrance to the building unlocked. The officer then entered the building and saw no one inside.
Charles Decerde, executive director of the Higuchi Biosciences Center, which houses the lab, armed at the scene at 9:40 p.m., the report said. He initiated a check of the alarm system's computer logs.
The logs showed that the alarm had activated because someone had tried to swipe an unauthorized security card and then go through the unsecured door. The card originally had been issued to Olafar Gudmundson, a post-doctoral student no longer at the University.
According to the report, Decedeue said that students often gave their security cards to other students rather than return them for their $4 deposit.
The officer and Decedue walked through the lab and observed nothing unusual, according to the report.

Appeals court upholds conviction of McVeigh
DENVER — A federal appeals court upheld the conviction of Oklahoma City bomber Timothy McVeigh yesterday. The defense claimed testimony from victims' relatives produced a verdict and sentence based on emotion rather than reason.

City commissioners sign on to plan for similar indicators
By Chris Fickett Kansan staff writer
The Lawrence City Commission took a step toward establishing a uniform downtown parking system last night.
The commission voted unanimously to approve Art and Sign Inc.'s $7,900 proposal for consistent parking signs.
The proposal includes a newspaper advertising campaign, an informative brochure and a design for about 40 signs that identify parking lots and direct drivers to parking.
"The theory of it is to help people get to the parking areas," said Bob Treanor, president of Art and Sign Inc.
Treanor also said that advertising and brochures would increase awareness about downtown parking lots.
"Hopefully, we can get people talking about this," he said.
Commissioner Bob Moody asked where the money for the signs would come from and how much they would cost.
City manager Wildenid said the money to construct the signs

In addition to funding concerns Moody questioned the necessity of several welcome signs, which would be placed at entrances to the downtown area.

Wilden said that if the city were to establish a parking zcar, that person would at least have the foundation to create new signs if a new parking lot or garage were built.

Seventeen to visit Kansas Union
Students question magazine targeting
By Angela Johnson
Kansan staff writer
Seventeen magazine is taking its show to colleges and universities across America, but some University of Kansas students feel that the tour belongs in high schools.
today, the magazine will stop in front of the Kansas Union. From 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., students can get free hair makeovers and beauty makeovers, free samples of beauty products and enter a talent or model search. The event is sponsored by Student Union Activities.
Some KU students argue that Seventeen doesn't need to tour colleges.
Satlak said although the magazine's audience was teen-agers, some issues were a bit too mature for such young readers.
Jennifer Satak, Joplin. Mo. junior, said "It's trying to target older readers, but they usually end up targeting high schoolers."
I read it when I was younger, and some of the things I read I thought, 'God I wouldn't do that,' she said.
Lindsey Gaston, SUA special events coordinator, said the magazine was trying to widen the age range of its audience.
"They're trying to increase their market to different kinds of people." Gaston said. "They do have the stigma of being a teeny-bopper magazine because of the name, but the content is geared toward 18-year-olds and older."
Jeff Bowles, Olathe senior, said the magazine was doing a poor job of trying to market college students.
"My little sister used to read this magazine," he said. "It makes no sense to me because no one on this campus is 17. We're all 18 or older."
Stephanie Koman, project coordinator for Marketing Mix, a promotional agency for the Seventeen On-Campus Tour, said the University

was the first stop of Seventeen's 10- college campus tour.
Koman said the tour was meant to provide entertainment and to discover new talent.
"Our demographic is actually larger than the teen audience, but whether that is true or not, the point is to have fun," Koman said. "Our purpose is to bring entertainment."
"Today was a banner day. This morning Secretary of State Albright, and Secretary of Defense Cohen along with the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. testified before the committee on NATO expansion...It was really cool to see them all together."

Senate must look to influential people to resist Wisconsin ruling
Student Senate's apprehension about a court ruling concerning the allocation of fees is valid, but its approach to the problem needs redirection.
in August, the 7th U.S. Court of Appeals upheld a ruling that the student government at Wisconsin University could no longer allocate students fees to organizations that some students did not want to support.
students do not apply Although the decision does not apply in Kansas, Senate fears that it may be only a matter of time before someone decides to challenge the University's fee allocation system.
This is a legitimate concern. Although the current fee-allocation system at the University has its problems, it is an effective method of distributing funds. That doesn't mean, however, that someone out there is not willing to challenge it in court. The 7th U.S. Court of Appeals decision gives them precedent.
Senate should ask the chancellor, the Regents and even the governor for support.
Senate does not want to see this happen, so it wants to discourage any challengers to the system and affirm Senate's faith in it.
Bouncing around the Senate's committees is a resolution opposing the court decision and offering support to the Associated Students of Madison, a group fighting the decision.
This is a good step. It gets Senate's official response on the record. But it
isn't enough.
Senate needs to urge Chancellor Robert Hemenway, Provost David Shulenburger, the Kansas Board of Regents, Kansas legislators and Gov. Bill Graves, to come out in opposition to the ruling.
Getting these officials on the record now would strengthen the effort to fight such decisions. It would put these officials on the record so that if a case like this went to a Kansas court, their stance already would be known, and they could not back pedal.
This can only strengthen Senate's stance and discourage others from taking the fee allocation system to court.
Urging these people to speak out is how Senate needs to expend its energy on this issue.
Spencer Duncan for the editorial board
Decision promotes individual rights
Students at the University of Kansas are given many opportunities to participate in their student government. There are positions on Student Senate as senators, committee members, coordinators, representatives and other ways as well for students to actively participate at the University.
It is a more than fair statement to say that students at KU have been given opportunities to become involved in student government. However, they still deserve more: to directly allocate funds to campus organizations.
Recently, the 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that it was inappropriate for student fees to be used toward organizations that some students disagree with. This ruling essentially stripped
Student should be able to directly decide what their student fees finance.
the student senate at the University of Wisconsin of its legislative authority, much as it would at this University.
Detractors of the ruling think that students have been given ample opportunity to participate in a system of government that has been affective for many years.
They ask why a minority of students should be able to bring about this change. They also contend that the work of hundreds of students who devote their time to making our
student government successful will be undermined.
With this in mind, how can this decision be a good one?
The court's decision promotes fundamental faith in the individual; that flawed creature that makes this campus what it is. Although the current system of financial appropriating recognizes the virtue of all, it often ignores the value of one. What about the individual? What about the value she or he possesses?
This ruling does not affect Kansas, and it is not likely that it will.
But if it did, students have the right to exercise choice in selecting the organizations that they want to support, and we should support their individual rights.

Perspective
Grandfather's wisdom reveals life's treasures
don't like talking seriously because then there's only one thing to talk about—the justification you can give for your life." — Albert Camus.
Grandpa and I headed toward the tiny dying town of Quenemo on a clear summer morning.
As we hurried down I-70 in his car, he began to tell stories of his life. I can recite most of them from holidays past, but for some reason they struck me as especially poignant that day.
I realized those stories make up the justification he gives for his life.
John Wilson
@pinterest @kansan.com
"You know, my dad was a farmer and was doing pretty well until the depress-
son came," he said as smoke slithered from his wrinkled mouth out the passenger's window. "Those days almost tore the heart out of everybody, but we kept our work ethic and things eventually got better."
I smiled and nodded, feeling my everyday worries about whether I should get out of bed and walk to class or whether to buy the Radiohead or the Bob Dylan CD were incredibly transparent.
All of a sudden, I couldn't care less about applying to law school or buying a new car. I could only think of the few times I felt this way in my life. The last time I remember this feeling was when a friend committed suicide during high school.
"I saw some things at Iwo Jima that I will never speak of to another human being," he said of his experiences as a Marine in one of the bloodiest battles of World War II. "Being there taught me to respect the Lord for getting me home alive, and respect all the men who have died for the idea of the United States of America."
Watershed events in life leave these true emotions. I had a moment of clarity, a moment deeply religious people call an epiphany. All the excess and waste of modern life washed away,
We all wrestle with finding and holding onto truth and happiness in this world. We wrestle with what path to choose in life to make us happy in the end.
"Your grandmother was the most stubborn woman I ever saw, but I sure loved her," he told me with a tear in his eye. "We didn't always agree, and we went through some hard times, but I always knew how much we loved each other. I can still smile about that today, even though she's gone."
and I could see into what really mattered.
We realize there is no simple answer to that problem.
Now, as I am back at school, I again find myself worrying about things that really have no bearing on my happiness. When I start worrying about whether Louise's Downtown or the Yacht Club will have more pretty girls or whether to skip my Thursday-afternoon Western Civilization class, I need to realize how unimportant those things are. It's so easy to jump back into lame worries and forget those defining moments that make life worth living.
defining moment
My grandpa left me with a picture of what really should be important in my world. I am left with a simple answer that can pull a man through the bad times, from the horrid realities of a world war to the demands of the working world. A simple answer that can give a man a little peace of mind; the people you love — your spouse, your family, your close friends — they are what's important. It's the holidays with them, it's leading a life that makes them proud of you. It's passing down your values to your grandson as an old man.
I have a deeper respect for my grandfather because of the life he built for himself, and the justification he gives for it.
He built a family and a circle of friends that loved him. He built a life he wanted to lead. He will lie on his deathbed knowing he lived a good life.
I hope to justify my idea of living a happy life to my grandson someday.

Dining services provide less for students' money
The cafeterias are starting to upset me. It's bad enough that they don't serve what's printed on the menu. (They promised stir-fried scallops, but they didn't
have it. a cruel, cruel joke on a seafood lover such as me.) But what really makes me mad is that I can't obtain meals for which I have paid.
Last year, I could use up extra meal credits by getting a few sack lunches at the end of the week. If I slept through breakfast a couple of times during the week and had Taco Bell for supper one night, I could always use up those skipped cafeteria meals by getting a few cans of Coke,

ever I wanted to.
Now they've changed the rules again. Now it's virtually impossible for us to use up extra meal credits. I can't get more than one sack lunch per meal, and if I do get a sack lunch, I cannot eat the next scheduled meal in the cafeteria. For example, if I get a sack of munchies with lunch, I can't eat supper that night.
Then they changed the rules on me. They set a limit of only two sack lunches per meal. I guess they got mad at me for carrying out six packs of Coke and lots of munchies. A minor inconvenience. I always could plan ahead and get some sack lunches earlier in the week. But still, the rule riled me. I already had paid for the meals, so why couldn't I claim them whenever I wanted to?
Not only that, but people cannot enter the dining center more than once a meal period. For example, if someone goes in at 10:30 a.m. to grab a banana before heading to class, he or she cannot go back after class for lunch at noon. What is the purpose of that rule? If someone wants to plunk down a meal credit for

my evidence; the menus that dining services distributes. Quoted from my Oliver Hall menu from the week of Aug. 24-30, 1998: "Board rates are based on the average number of meals served. The assumption that not every resident will eat every meal enables the use of a missed meal factor in computing meal charges."

access to what I had rightfully paid.
rernaps dining services should re-evaluate their assumption that we don't mind if it screws us. If it is charging us for x number of meals per week, we should be able to claim x number of meals (sack or sit-down) without these ludicrous restrictions. Its assumption should not be taken as law.
If these practices were employed by any other business, there would be a few lawsuits filed. Say, for example, that I bought a card that entitled me to five massages per month. (It's my example I can decide what service I'm buying!) Let's also say that I was rather busy during most of the month and didn't get around to getting any massages those weeks. I would certainly want to use up all the back rubs that I have paid for, so I would go into the massage parlor during the last week to cash in all my credits at once. It sounds perfectly fair to me.
Feedback
President should be criticized for actions
We read the Sept. 2 editorial entitled "Critics of the President should look in the mirror" and found its arguments faulty.
First of all, Clinton's actions cannot be excused just because they were a part his private life. If Clinton had wanted a strictly private life, he shouldn't have run for public office.
Not all presidents have been corrupt. Presidents such as Adams, Washington and Lincoln were men of character who put the nation's interests before personal gain and indulgence.
President Clinton has purposefully lied to the nation and has cheated on his wife

I was stranded on campus after reading at the library because the bus was no longer running. Saferide employees really care about the welfare of KU students. I contacted Saferide and in about six minutes I was on my way home.
Safaride is a reliable service rendered to KU students for their own benefit. It actually depends on what the students use it for. I encourage the help that Safaride provides to students who use it for its right purpose.

Missionary preaches Jesus through strength
By Pallavi Agarwal
By Pallavi Agarwal Kansan staff writer
He breaks piles of bricks, blows up a hot water bottle and breaks baseball bats, all for Jesus.
Say hello to Big Tommy, also known as Tom Sirotnak, a 300-pound behemoth armed with a bag of tricks and the Word of God.
Big Tommy will entertain students at the University of Kansas today, and through his performances, will tell students how Jesus changed his life.
The missionary was a defense team captain of the University of South California Trojan football team in the 1890s. He was the team's first walk-on in 25 years to earn the title of captain.
"Big Tommy's story is the inspirational story of how God changed the life of a boy who was someone average," said Jonathan Hupp, campus minister of Jayhawker Campus Ministry, which is sponsoring Big Tommy's trip. "When he was young, he was considered to be mentally slow. But he transformed all that."
Big Tommy will perform from 11:15 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. today on the Stauffer Flint lawn. A longer performance is set for 7:30 tonight at Ballroom in the Kansas Union.
Cheh Lim, another minister with the group, said Big Tommy was on campus last year as well, although he didn't perform the entire show.
"He broke off the handcuffs he was

wearing and ripped a Los Angeles phone book in half," she said.
Big Tommy has traveled around the world. Hupp said that Big Tommy had met President Reagan and Governor George Bush, among countless other politicians and business leaders.
The group arranged a publicity campaign to announce Big Tommy's arrival. The campaign has created a sense of suspense about Tommy's identity.
"We have heard that students are asking each other in classes who Big Tommy is. Some students wanted to know if he was a rock star or what," Hupp said.
Black-and-white posters saying "Who is Big Tommy?" and "Big Tommy Rocks" have been intriguing students across campus.
This campaign, tried and tested at the University of North Carolina, Duke University and North Carolina State University, certainly has made students leap to conclusions.
sungHee Cha, graduate student from Seoul, Korea, thought it was an advertisement for Tommy Hilfiger, a brand of clothes.

Senate to consider new legislative job
By Seth Jones
Kansan staff writer
By Seth Jones
The question of whether a new executive position should be added to Student Senate is on the agenda for tonight's meeting, the first of the school year.
Korb Maxwell, legislative director, is hoping Senate will see the need for the addition of a campus legislative director. Maxwell said the new position would make his job more efficient.
The new position would adopt half of Maxwell's duties, giving him the time he said he needed to concentrate on state legislation. The campus legislative director would concentrate more on city and campus lobbying, two things Maxwell thinks there aren't enough hours in the day for.
"Right now, even if worked 40 hours a week, there isn't enough time for me to focus on both local issues and issues in Topeka," he said. "We had this problem last year, too. The legislative director only had enough time to look ahead one hour or one day in the future because of all the responsibilities. With the addition of a
campus legislative director, I'd be able to do m o r e research and plan
much more in advance."
Senate also will vote on whether to be a co-sponsor with Student Union Activities for the appearance of the MTV program "Loveliest."
SUA has requested $2,000 from Senate to help pay the $21,000 cost of bringing the program to campus Sept. 18.
Scott Kaiser, student body vice president, said he thought tonight's meeting would set the tone for the year.
"This should provide us with a litmus test on what the year will be like," he said. "I expect to see us looking into the future for the year and what our goals will be, more so than in a month. Hopefully, we'll discuss recreation and task forces and other things we hope to take on this year."
Tonight's meeting is at 6:30 p.m. at the Kansas Room in the Kansas Union. All Senate meetings are open to the public.

Concert reviews
Trio's tunes rock the 'haus
Tamara Miller
Kansan staff writer
The most disturbing thing about the Mike Hosty Trio is not their music, nor their on stage presence.
It was 10 p.m. last Saturday at the Jazzhaus. Three Midwesterners with a self-professed lack of savoir-fair took the stage. They played. They rocked. They laid down a groove that shook a crowd of 18- to 80-year-olds so hard they tripped down the sidewalk afterwards, searching for the magic that turned an Oklahoma native into a guitar maestro. So, where were you?
It is that the band brings quality music to Lawrence for only $5, while bands like Gwar simply put blood on their bodies and charge double digits for their performances.
If nothing else, any guitar aficionado could appreciate the mike Hosty Trio for their classic music skills. Vocalist/guitarist Mike Hosty plays his instrument as if it were an extension of his own body, where his

The crowd at the Jazzhaus seemed almost stunned by the band's music, and it took them nearly an hour to bring anyone to their feet. This is not to say the band is a sit-and-listen kind of group. But watching a few seasoned musicians play is such a rarity these days, I believe the crowd was almost shocked.
Crystal Method electrifies music
Are these guys musicians or computer programmers?
Tamara Miller Kansan staff writer
With four Roland keyboards, a stack of sequencers and a space odyssey light show. The Crystal Method blustered out an electronic musical Aug. 31 at the Granada. A frienzied crowd jammed the bottom floor, trying desperately to jump inside viscous bass lines as Ken Jordan and Scott Kirkland desperately pushed buttons, punched keys and adjusted knobs.
To be clear, the World of Crystal Method is a different place. Their world is void of all earthly goods. The Crystal Method pushes the senses into full awareness with their sound overload. The crowd moves as hard as they can to keep up with the rhythmic joy ride while the band ties as hard as they can to wrench and twist the perfect sound out of its machines. The word here is struggle, and The Crystal Method and the crowd are in it together.
Unlike many electronic bands,

After they return from studying abroad, many KU students find themselves experiencing an all-American culture SHOCK story by steph brewer and kelli raybern kansan
Imagine experiencing culture shock empty.” Jared Stone Lawrence senior spent With all of this strangeness around you, how can you manage to readjust to have changed,” she said. It’s frustrating, she said, to go to a
Imagine experencing culture shock in your own country.
Going to another country usually produces feelings of unease. You step off the plane, and all of a sudden you're a complete stranger. You're alone in a place where the people are different, the food is different, maybe the language is different. And there you are—nervous, excited and clueless.
"Culture shock was 10 times worse coming home than going," said Joelle Eidsness, Brookings, S.D., senior.
Most students expect this when they study abroad. What they don't always anticipate is the difficulty of readjusting to life in America.
Eidness spent last summer studying in Beijing, China, through Princeton University and then moved to Nanjing for a year through the University of Kansas.
The differences between home and abroad can show themselves in a lot of unsettling ways.
"I freaked out," she said. "I looked out the window, and there was nothing. Things seemed really clean and
Home even looks strange when you haven't seen it for a long time. Eidsen left Beijing in June and flew to Sioux Falls, S.D. D.She said that even through the plane window, South Dakota seemed empty compared to crowded China.
Jared Stone, Lawrence senior, spent the spring semester in Stirling, Scotland. When he Stone also was jarred by the appearance of the United States.
"Over there, the streets are very curvy. There's no particular order," he said. "Here, everything is on a grid. It's very sterile and boring."
When you've been away long enough to feel at home in another country, things once familiar look foreign at first. But the feelings of alienation go beyond the cosmetic.
Nancy Mitchell, Assistant Director of the KU Office of Study Abroad, said that most students had problems readjusting to life in the United States.
"Here, everything's snap! snap!
snap!" he said.
"It's normal, and there are varying degrees of it," she said. "It's often the student that adapts completely to life abroad that has more difficulties coming back."
J5 M3 S1 JS
The routines that once constituted the only way of life you'd ever known may not fit with changes in your personality or your new outlook on life. James McShane, Minneapolis senior, who spent six months in Wollongong, Australia, said getting used to the fast pace of life in the United States was difficult. He said Australians were a more relaxed, no-worries society.
With all of this strangeness around you, how can you manage to readjust to life in good old Lawrence, Kansas?
Surely you can still count on your family and friends. You've known them forever. You've thought about them, maybe written to a few. They couldn't have changed.
But their lives did go on pretty much as normal without you; they are different now. Like your favorite pair of worn-out jeans, the people you knew inside and out may be at first a tight, uncomfortable fit. Your family, friends, classmates and professors may look the same, but chances are your relationships will feel different as a result of changes in you and the people you know.
Stone said that although he had looked forward to seeing his friends at home again, things did not go exactly as they had before.
"I don't think I ever see people the same as when I left," he said. "But they will become familiar again." Jen Smith, Manhattan senior, spent a semester in Israel and and a semester in the West Bank. She said she hadn't experienced any problems with her friends. In fact, one close friend often forgets that she was gone last year. Her difficulty has been with Lawrence itself.
"What's really hard here is things
have changed," she said. It's frustrating, she said, to go to a favorite store and find that it had moved.
Coming home isn't all bad, though. For students who have been in non-English speaking countries, returning to the United States means being understood all the time. Smith said her year sometimes was difficult because she wasn't fluent in Hebrew.
"Bad language days were horrible," she said. "The whole world seemed to be going in the wrong direction, and it had to be raining out(side)."
Eidsness said her problem with language arose when she returned to the United States. She was used to the higher volume of Chinese speech and also to the fact that she could speak English and that no one would understand.
"I talked louder," she said, "I couldn't realize people around me could understand what I was saying because I was so used to people not understanding." While the places KU students went and their difficulties in returning varied, there is one experience universal among travelers: the desire to travel again.
"When I was in Scotland, I was sad to leave and eager to be back," Stone said. "Now I'm sad to be back and eager to leave."
Students who have been out of the country during the past semester may not have heard about many major events that happened this year. In fact, some still may be unknown to them. Here's a refresher:

Short homer goes a long way
Hit barely clears wall, revitalizes love of baseball
The Associated Press
ST. LOUIS — Without a doubt or an asterisk, Mark McGwire and his mighty swing broke Roger Maris' home run record last night — with plenty of games to spare.
No. 62 was not a trademark McGwire moonshot, but a laser to left field, a 341-footer that barely cleared the wall and was his shortest of the season.
McGwire connected with two outs in the fourth, inning off the Chicago Cubs' Steve Trachsel for the historic home, punctuating the chase that reinvigorated the sport and captivated a nation.
McGwire was so caught up in the moment that he missed first base as he rounded the bag and had to return to touch it. He was pulled back by coach Dave McKav.
McGwire was mobbed by his teammates at home plate, where he hoisted his 10-year batboy on Matt high into the air.
on Saturday fielder Sammy Sosa, who has Cubs right fielder Sammy Sosa, who has 58 home runs, ran in from right field to hug McGwire and give his rival a high-five.
McGwire then ran into the seats to hug the family of Maris, whose 37-year-old record he had just broken.

Recognizing a bad call, the Internal Revenue Service said Tuesday that any baseball fan returning record-setting home run balls hit by Mark McGwire or Sammy Sosa wouldn't feel a tax pinch.

Earlier IRS statements indicating that the valuable baseballs might be subject to taxes even if returned to the sluggers drew jeers from the Capitol and the White House.
Jayhawks soccer pulls ahead of Tigers
By Brad Hallier
Kansan sportswriter
Defender Kylie Watts previously said that her favorite moment in soccer was scoring a goal with her head.
That's exactly what she did yesterday. Watts scored the lone goal on a header, and the Kansas soccer team notched one of its biggest victories in four years by shutting out the Missouri Tigers 1-0.
“It’s a great feeling,” said goalkeeper Jen Fcke, who earned the shutout. “We finally came together and played hard for each other. The defense played great and worked so hard. This win is attributed to defense.”
KANSAS 11
"This includes everyone, the players on the bench and the coaches," he said. "I believe the seniors did a tremendous job. They wrote on the chalkboard what a win would mean, and that carried over to the whole team."
Coach Dan Magner said he was happy with the win, especially because the Jayhawks achieved their top priority — to have 90 minutes of total team commitment.
The Jayhawk goal came after a Johanna Larsson shot was deflected across the end line by a Missouri defender. Forward Megham Haven took the corner kick, and the Tigers' defense cleared the ball back to Haven.
She passed the ball again, and this time Watts was there to score her first collegiate goal.
"Haven played a perfect cross," Watts said. "After the first corner was cleared, I just stayed in the middle."

It was the first goal Missouri conceded this season in all its matches, including exhibition games.
Missouri had possession of the ball for a majority of the first half, but a stiff Jayhawk defense limited the number of chances for the Tigers.
Missouri came out strong in the second half, but Feke made a diving save on a shot by defender Dyana Russell. As the half continued, the Jayhawks gained confidence in their ability to attack, and they had a few opportunities to extend their lead.

The Tigers came close again in the final minute when midfielder Stephanie Brennan's shot rattled the crossbar, but it didn't faze Feke.
"I just wanted to find the ball and be ready for a rebound," she said.
shots, four on goal.
"We were fortunate that they didn't finish," Magner said.
"The ball bounced our way today, and sometimes that's what you need to win. Give Missouri credit. Their goalkeeper played well. Their front-runners are tough, and we told our

"This is a great accomplishment," Fecke said. "It's the first step towards the Big 12 tournament."

Commentary Raising money to build a new recreation center not that difficult
When Robinson Center stopped loaning out racquetball rackets, it should have been recognized as a sign of things to come.
Robinson is knocking out most of its rac-quetball courts to make room for educational facilities — classrooms, a weight room, etc.
Robinson claimed it no longer loaned out rackets because careless students were destroying them. What we didn't know was that we wouldn't need them anymore
These renovations are indicative of a growing problem: How does a building balance education and recreation?
The answer. It doesn't — not with the building that currently exists.
that can remedy it If something doesn't happen soon, Robinson will become an educational facility with no room for recreation time.
space for borrowing.
But like many problems, this one requires money to be solved. And students have been reluctant to hand the University the dollars
This means that Robinson has to be expanded or that a new center must be built. That is the only way the University will have space for both classes and recreation.
That would be unfair considering students pay a $13 fee per semester for recreation services ($7.50 goes to recreation services; $3.25 goes to support Robinson and $2.25 goes to club sports).
Students said, "No way" by an almost 2-to-1 margin.
In the two years since, things have gotten worse. It is time to solve the problem.
Two years ago, students voted down a proposed $21.5 million new West Campus center. That would have required the $13 semester fee to be raised to $90.
PETER
Spencer Duncan
A renovation of the current building could cost as much as $14 million.
A campus advisory board is looking into a solution. But whatever they come up with has to be paid for.
That's a large sum of money. But there are options.
options:
■ Start with the Athletics Department. For years, it has used Robinson. The basketball, volleyball and tennis teams, to name a few, all have used Robinson for practice, competition and pick-up games.
They may need a place to go, but Robinson is supposed to be for students not involved in Kansas athletics. When a team is using the center, it means less time for students.
After all, the Athletics Department has its own facilities, and it doesn't let students play ball in Allen Field House or practice batting at Hogland Stadium.

others for money. Last year, Basketball's Williams Fund took in nearly $4.5 million, the Endowment Association just built a new expensive facility on West Campus, and a deceased couple just donated $7 million to the University, the most ever given by an estate.
With some effort and a solid fund-raising plan, a large amount of money could be raised. There are people willing to dip into their pockets. They just have to be found and encouraged.
encouraged. Corporate sponsors can have a negative impact on a University, but the chancellor and the athletics director have already shown that this University will embrace them.
Start hugging, and see what corporations want their name on the facility.
These three things will not raise all the needed money, but they will get things started and, more importantly, reduce the costs to students.
Costs to students:
Two years ago, students wanted a new recreation center. They just weren't willing to pay $50 per semester.
But if non-student money can be raised, then the fee students will be asked to pay would be lower and should be accepted by students.

way. It is love, and tons of love. You are heading
right into it. Enjoy!
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is 6. This is another good day for practical decisions with one in particular ripe to be made. You may have been hesitant until now, unsure what work out best for all concerned. But today it should be getting more obvious.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is a 7.
Cancer (June 22- July 22): Today is a 7.
Get together with friends, plan your course of action and start down the path. This will be more fun than work. You will be doing something you enjoy with people you like to be around. If you can also be doing something that benefits others, you will have made a grand slam

Somebody in authority is watching and thinking of giving you more responsibility. That is OK with you.
The more control you have, the more likely things will go your way. But first, you need to show you can produce the results this other person is after.

You have been introspective for the last month or so, cleaning up old messes and solving old problems. You get to decide what to do next. Today, take a step in the right direction by making a decision. Choose what you want to do, out of service to your highest ideals.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23); Today is a 6.
Scorpi (Oct. 24-Nov 21): Today is a 5.
you need to pay attention to old bills, old obligations and old friends. If you have a future investment plan, add to it. The money you put into your retirement account will provide security in the future. The time you spend with old friends counts the same way.
Saaittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 5.
The moon is in Taurus, which calms things down again. It can also indicate you will run into opposition in the form of somebody else's rules and regulations. You do not like that, but today it would be wise to comply. You actually might achieve what you want more quickly if you do.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 7.
This is a great day for romance, especially if it is with a person you have known for years. It is debatable whether new love is better than old love, but when you fall in love again with somebody you already love, you have the best of both worlds. Just relax, and let it happen.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)! Today is a 3.
Powell toward career success continues, off and on through the 16th. You will need a break by then. But today you need to expend some effort. You will not reach your goal by coasting. There is work involved, too. To wind up in the right place, you have to steer.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) : Today is a 6.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 7.
There has been a flurry of activity lately, and there's more to come. Today, find time for yourself. Stay home tonight if possible. If you must have a meeting with friends, invite them to your place. It is important for you to build up your energy. You have been wearing thin.

Pisces is the sign of creative genius. It is a little difficult for you to develop your natural talents, however. You are interested in so many things, it is hard to settle on one. You need to set up same sort of structure in order to achieve your goal. If you are not sure how, learn from a person who has already done it.

Bechard said. "We seemed to just find a way to win. We were a little flat coming off a good weekend, but that could be expected. It wasn't pretty, but it was a good win."
Middle blocker Amanda Reves, who led the Jayhawks offense with 22 kills, said that the team's ability to find a way to win was the most important thing to take away from the match.
SCORPIO
"We started off rough," Reves said. "We weren't expecting them to be a good defensive team."
The Jayhawks had not won in Wichita since 1986, and they improved to 35-12 overall against the Shockers.

Special teams take lesson away from mediocre day
By Jodi M. Smith
Kansan sportswriter
To those who watch football, offense scores the points, defense keeps the other team from scoring points, and special teams take up the time in between.
But to those who play on special teams, nothing could be further from the truth.
Special teams players are responsible for successful kick returns and punt returns, point-after attempts and field goals.
But last Saturday, in the Jayhawks' season opener, success was not the way to describe their performance.
"We basically weren't very good, bottom line," said Darrell Wyatt, special teams coach. "In just about every phase of special teams, we had some kind of bust. They had good returns on us, we didn't do a good job covering kicks and our kicks weren't especially good or long."
After the jayhawks' second touch
down, place kicker Joe Garcia's extra point attempt was blocked. Then, late in the fourth quarter, a bouncing, 78-yard punt from Oklahoma State's Scott Elder left Kansas batting a tied score from their own 11-yard line.
But rather than being unprepared, inexperience might have been a factor.
And although it was Childs who bumbled fielding the 78-yard punt, the whole thing was chalked up to a bad roll.
Kansas has two players on its special teams who, until Saturday, hadn't played at the college-football level: freshman running back Henri Childs and freshman punter Matt Tyler.
"I thought he was going to try and run it down; it looked like he was going to try to run it down, but he made the judgment not to, and we can't question that," coach Terry Allen said. "It would have been a running-out-of-control catch, which may have potentially led to a turnover.
Obviously, it was a great kick, and Henri did a nice job back there all day. He just didn't quite track it down, and we're not going to hold that against him."
Pressure might have been a factor for Childs playing in his first college game, but after his first return, he felt right at home.
"The first time I went back there on punt returns I was nervous," Childs said. "But after that, not really."
And he wasn't the only one at ease on the Javahaws' home turf.
Tyler felt comfortable during the game but was disappointed after, not so much in the outcome, but in his own performance.
"Personally, I wasn't satisfied with it." Tyrler said. "I guess the coaches thought I did all right, but I'm a little bit of a perfectionist."
Now they are trying to put last Saturday's performance behind them and concentrate on their battle against the Missouri Tigers this Saturday.

The quarterback steps to the line.
His mind races as he surveys the defense.
He checks the defensive backs and steps up to the center.
He barks the signals, and the line-backers settle into position.
With the snap of the ball, chaos erupts. It's an all-out jailbreak as both outside linebackers and a middle linebacker come crashing through the gaps in the offensive line, looking for one thing — blood.
*not all positions are shown
Of all the ways to intensify the pass-rush by players, other than defensive linemen, the blitz creates the greatest potential for destruction. Blitzes, when at least six people rush the quarterback in an attempt to disrupt the play, are an important part of most college and professional defensive strategies.
"The general idea of a blitz is that you are going to send six men," said Mark Farley, Kansas linebackers coach. "It's basically an all or nothing concept. When you blitz, you send six, and I have five players left. There's five eligibles (receivers). I have no extra players, I have to cover all the eligibles. It's all or nothing. There's true man across the board. That's

Linebackers rushing the passer initiate some of the most violent hits on a football field.
It can be the source of evil joy for defensive players.

Kansas, like most teams in the Big 12 Conference, often blitzes with linebackers.

Kansas linebacker Pat Brown, on the other hand, is a player who enjoys blind-side shots.
"Oh, man, I dream about it, too."
Brown said. "It would have to be a quarterback on a naked foot with his back towards me, about to turn
around. Then, when he turns around, just wipe him out. That's my dream shot. Just knock the chin off of him, the strap, the helmet on the ground. I'd like to just pick up the helmet and just hold it in my hand."
Brown said there was more to go after the quarterback than lining up and attacking.
"First, I have to think about the moves I'm going to use on the tackle or guard or tight end," Brown said. "Second, just try to execute that move and get to the quarterback, and just try and light him up. I mean, I'm trying to take the quarterback out of the game and be as fair as possible. But, yeah, I'm trying to make him remember me."
When successful, a blitz restricts the quarterback's movement, forces him to make quick decisions and obstructs his view of the field.
The blitzers' intention is to hit the quarterback, hit him hard and make sure he is on his back when the play ends.

"I want him to turn around and look right at me," Caston said. "I don't like blind hits. That's some guys ultimate dream, but I want him to look me in my

Nationally-ranked player leads golf coach's 'best team ever'
By Sam Mellinger Kansan sportswriter
No matter what the sport, coaches usually shy away from making bold preseason statements.
Don't count University of Kansas men's golf coach Ross Randall among that group.
"We're really good," he said. "On paper, this is certainly the best team we've ever had here."
Thompson is ranked No. 25 in the nation in the preseason Master-card collegiate golf rankings.
The team returns its top three players — honorable mention All-American Chris Thompson and juniors Ryan Vermeer and Brad Davis.
"That makes a huge difference," Randall said. "The best teams have a few golfers at the top, and then they have a (No.) four and five guy that can come through once in a while. The competition
for (No.) four and five is really going to be something."
The key to a good college golf team is getting everybody to play well at the same time, Randall said.
"That's something that is very hard to do in college athletics," he said. "We've got a solid top three, and then it's very, very competitive as to who's going to be next."
Davis was part of the winning team in the Heart of America Four-Ball tournament and qualified for match play at the U.S. Amateur Championship in Rochester, N.Y. Davis lost to eventual champion Hank Kuehne.
Randall expects sophomore Andy Stewart to make a big push for one of those spots. Stewart and fellow Independence native Thompson won a local two-man tournament during the summer, one of many successful showings by KU golfers.
Thompson won the Lawrence Open and the Kansas Amateur tournament in Wichita, which
earned him a trip to Niagara Falls, N.Y., to play in the Porter Cup.
"That was a big deal." Randall said. "There were a lot of good golfers there (in Wichita) and, to me, he was the best player in the tournament."
vermeer also played in the Porter Cup.
Talent is one thing, but Randall knows that it will not add up to much if his team does not work hard.
"Everybody's determined to make this the best team we've ever had at the University of Kansas," he said.
Randall always encourages his players to play as much as they can during the summer.
"We wants us to have fun." Stewart said after a tournament at Alvamar this summer. "He wants us to play in a lot of tournaments, and he wants us to play in the big ones we have the competition."
Practice makes perfect, Randall

There is some happier news on this side of the Atlantic: The Wizards won 5-1 Saturday night, improving their chances at a playoff spot. Midfielder Preki put on a
remarkable show, scoring a hat trick and adding two assists.
The team has only one regular season game remaining, and that Sept. 19 game could decide whether the team makes the playoffs.
If you've never been to a game,
this will be a good one to attend.
This will be a good opportunity.
Now, on to some more analyses in brief of major soccer competitions for this season.
Serie A (Italy): Defending cham-
will be midfield power and organization that wins the day, and Juventus will raise the Scudetto (the award given to the Italian champion) once again.
pion Juventus (Turin) face some formidable challengers. Lazio (Rome) has spent huge amounts of money in the off-season, including the purchase of striker Marcelo Salas of Chile and Italy's top scorer at the World Cup, Christian Vieri.
The Salas-Vierti partnership, with Croatian Alen Bokic running behind the front two, will make for perhaps the most potent attacking combo in the world, one that can only be rivaled by fellow challenger to the Serie A throne Internazionale (Milan).
Bundesliga (Germany): The German championship saw something truly remarkable last year. Kaiserslautern rose from the dreeck of the Zueite Bundesliga (second division) to the dizzying heights of Bundesliga champion in the space of one season — a feat that had not been accomplished in a major European league for years.
However, I do not believe that it will be able to hold onto the title. Bayern Munich, runner-up last year, has strengthened even further, a feat thought nearly impossible. To its efficient machine, it added the artistic play of midfielder Stefan Effenberg, the type of player who can change a game with one touch of the ball.
Inter has the enviable problem of working 1996 & 1997 FIFA World Player of the Year Ronaldo, Chilean star Ivan Zamorano, French supporting forward Youri Djorkejaff and off-season acquisition Roberto Baggio, perhaps the greatest Italian attacking player of the past 20 years, into their lineup.
Neither Kaiserslautern nor 1997 European champion Borussia Dortmund will be able to hold off the Bayern colossus this time around.
next time: Soccer and Lawrence television, European competitions and a preview of the Wizards' final home game.
Can an four We shall see
Once-great AC Milan has continued its shopping spree; the main purchase of the summer was German striker Oliver Bierhoff, a gentleman, a hard worker and definitely a threat in the air. However, it won't be enough.
The midfield that once powered the team to several European championships is now toothless and disorganized. In the end, it

THE STUDENT NEWSPAPER OF THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS
Bus officials use spin to prevent free rides
KU on Wheels
The University of Kansas
Bus pass scanners are not working. Until new bus passes are issued, students need to show their KUID to ride. New passes should arrive by Sept. 21.
(USPS 630-640)
By Seth Jones Kansan staff writer
KU on Wheels officials decided yesterday that the best way to say they didn't know who was riding the bus was to say it quietly.
Hoping to avoid an onslaught of riders without valid passes, the transportation board decided yesterday to avoid the word "free" and to pitch the new plan specifically to bus-pass holders.
Because the card scanners on buses don't work, bus drivers cannot determine who has a valid bus pass. Officials originally planned to advertise free bus service to all students until the problem was fixed.
Forthcoming KU on Wheels advertising will state that buspass holders need to show their KUIDs to bus drivers until new passes arrive in two weeks.
Officials hope the plan will not upset bus-pass holders and will discourage those without bus passes from getting free rides, said Nicole Skalla, transportation coordinator for KU on Wheels.
Skalla also had proposed a "hush-hush" approach to the transportation board, in which the inoperative scanners would not be advertised. Those without passes would have continued to pay the $1 fee to ride the bus, and students would have been required to insert KUIDs into the broken scanners.
tributed for two days in front of Wescoe Hall, for three days at the Kansas Union and during evenings at residence halls, Skalla said. If students do not claim their new bus passes by the end of that week, they will be charged the
Skalla said she hoped the new bus passes — which are similar to the new KUID — will be delivered by Sept. 21. She said the passes would arrive by Sept. 28 in a worst-case scenario.
normal $1 fee to ride the bus.
KU on Wheels will distribute the new bus passes to students on campus. The passes will be discards will display each student's photo, which has been kept on file. Stickers will signify proof of buspass purchase.
Cybermark, the Florida-based company that made the new KUIDs, also will make the new bus passes. The new passes will not have any form of microchip or magnetic strip, Skalla said. The
The University administration will pay for the new card and related advertising costs, Skalla said.
"We went into a cooperative development partnership with Cybermark," she said. "If for any reason we found the equipment was not working, we knew we would not have to pay for it."
Cybermark will replace the defective scanners and will encode the new bus passes without billing the University, said Diane Goddard, University purchasing director.
"We could not put a sticker on
University administrators originally proposed using the KUID as a bus pass, Skala said. But that wouldn't have worked.
"We could not put a sticker on the cards because that would cause them to malfunction."

the cards because that would cause them to malfunction," Skalla said. "So we were then given the choice of either using the smartcard chips or issuing our own new cards for bus passes.
"We thought the cost of making our own passes would be excessive and were told that the smartcard could handle serving as a bus pass, so we went with the smartcard."

Professor blasts KU commercialization
Kansan staff writer
Bv Chad Buttes
In front of an overflow crowd of more than 200 at Ecumenical Christian Ministries, Katzman presented an extensive outline of why he thought it was harmful for the University to embrace commercialism.
David Katzman, chairman of American studies, delivered a stinging speech on the commercialization of campus yesterday aimed at University administration.
The open process of decisionmaking normally found in academia is damaged when large amounts of money are at stake, Katzman said.
(1)
He said the decision-making process was aimed from the top down rather than from debate within the University community.
"Money changes the structure of the University, sometimes in direct opposition to its tradition of openness." he said.
This closed process also is monopolistic in nature, he said.
Katzman said that corporate deals also gave the impression that the academic community was for sale.
David Katzman, professor of American studies, talks with Tim Miller, chairman of the religious studies department, loft, and Dennis Domer, associate dean of architecture and urban design, before Katzman's speech yesterday at Ecumenical Christian Ministries.
Chancellor Robert Memenway said business deals were a part of the commercial marketplace.
Some people disagree with Katzman's ideas.
He said that the University entered into them all the time to purchase items such as equipment and supplies.
In fact, he said, the deals may actually influence research and teaching methods.
"What's at risk is not just the University of Kansas but the research university," he said.
He emphasized the positive benefits resulting from recent contracts, including about 100 scholarships that students received this year from Coca-Cola.
Hiemenway also said that academic departments received more funds because business contracts supported KU athletic departments, which prevented athletic subsidies.
Theresa Klinkenberg, director of administration, said that a limited number of commercial contracts
provided the University with a great deal of money.
She said the exclusive Coke con-

Henmenway: Says all task-force ideas will be acted upon
PETER HALLMAN
About 400 faculty and staff members attended the afternoon Convocation at Budig Hall. It also was broadcast to faculty and staff at the University of Kansas Medical Center and the University of Kansas School of Medicine-Wichita
Shulenburger he soon would meet with department chairs and deans to discuss discipline-appropriate research experience and significant international exposure.
"Students leaving here with discipline-specific research projects would be better equipped to compete in a rapidly changing world," he said.
Shulenburger recently challenged task-force members to consider the difference between the top 15 percent of KU graduates to the others.
"They concluded that the top 15 percent had more faculty contact and were more involved in the process of inquiry than the rest," he said. "The task force recommends that we revise the curricular experience so that 100 percent have the same experience."
Shulenburger also noted that 945 students studied abroad last year, which was an increase of 160 students compared to 1996.
The changes stem from the Initiative 2001 task forces that were creat
"If our students are to cope with the rapidly blurring international boundaries of the world, they need fundamental understanding of other cultures just as much as they need the skills of inquiry." Shulen-burger said.

ated by Hemenway at last year's convocation.
concierge Hemenway said that task force members recommended 131 ideas for meeting the goals of acting as one University, serving Kansans and building premier learning communities.
Hemenway said that numerous advances had been made during the last three years, including $150 million of current capital construction projects, a new structure in the administration and a new leadership team at the Medical Center, which will become a public authority Oct. 1.
"All of these recommendations will be acted upon — either implemented or studied — by June of 2000." Hemenway said.
Tim Bengtson, professor of advertising, said that Hemenway and Shulenburger's speeches were very informative and that they invited faculty and staff to become involved in the advances.
"We are certainly moving in the direction that the Chancellor wants us to move," Bengtson said.
Bengtson said that the task-force members brought up many ideas for improvement.
"We now know where we need to improve, and people will begin working in those areas," Bengtson said.
He also said the research requirement would lead to more students being better educated.
Rick Hale, professor of aerospace engineering, also said that research would enhance students' overall education.
"But getting that experience to all students is the question now," he said.

Aerosol can sparks small blast at eatery
A small explosion yesterday morning startled employees at the Visual Arts snack bar in the Art and Design Building, and sparked response by fire officials and police officials.
Jean Young, snack bar operator, said a cracked aerosol can under a sink was ignited by the electricity from a drink machine.
The can exploded and flames blew the doors of the cabinet open, Young said.
KU police responded about 10 a.m., said Sgt. Troy Mailen of the KU Public Safety Office.
Young said police and fire officials told her there was no damage to the snack bar.
"We're still in business," Young said. "Nobody was hurt. We're just still shaken."

Computing Services post to be filled this month
Four candidates are interviewing for the position of deputy director for Academic Computing Services.
University of Kansas officials intend to fill the position by the end of the month. The candidates' names have not been announced.
University administration decided to create the new position last June, upon learning of Jerry Niebaum's plan to retire in June of 2000. Niebaum is the director of Academic Computing Services and is the assistant vice chancellor for Information Services.
The deputy director will be second-in-command to Niebaum and will take over once Niebaum retires.
"If I retire in 2000, I will have been here 19 years," Niebaum said. "By retiring, I am hoping to have less structure in my work responsibilities."
"Jerry's plan to step down allows us plenty of time to find someone to step in and learn the ropes," said Bill Crowe, vice chancellor for Information Services and dean of libraries. "We want to make sure that the baton is passed cleanly and there are no unusual problems."
The deputy director will act as a liaison between Academic Computing Services and school deans and department chairmen. This will allow the deputy director to learn about the services and systems that the University provides, Niebaum said.
Niebaum said he was unsure whether he would continue to work for the University after his retirement. If so, he said he hoped to perform technological and computing services for the University.

Station. Kendall Kenneth Starr; Ssn said prosecutors his report to Condid not give Clinton a chance to
review and answer the report's allegations beforehand.
"We do know this, there is no basis for impeachment." Kendall said.
The report, composed of several hundred pages and 36 boxes of evidence, contains substantial and credible information that may constitute grounds for Clinton's impeachment, Starr representative Charles Bokaly said.
Starr said the report included secret grand jury evidence.
Clinton apologized anew for his behavior with former intern Lewinsky, first in a private meeting with Democrats at the White House and then publicly at an appearance in Florida.
Killing on Marine mission blamed on poor training
EL PASO, Texas — Marines involved in the killing of a teen-age goatherd during an anti-drug patrol along the Mexican border were not adequately trained for an armed operation among civilians, the military has concluded in an internal report.
Marine commanders did not do enough to prevent the encounter that ended in the shooting death of 18-year-old Esequiel Hernandez Jr., military officials said.
The Marine Corps considered the mission to be more of a training opportunity than a real-world deployment, said retired Marine Maj. Gen John T. Coyne, who investigated the shooting. The Marine Corps disputed Coyne's conclusions.
Military officials said that Hernandez fired his.22-caliber rifle twice at members of a Marine patrol assigned to guard against smuggling along the border and that he had raised the weapon to fire a third time when Cpl. Clemente Banuelos shot him once with an M-18 rifle.
Hernandez was killed May 20, 1997, while herding goats along the Rio Grande near Redford, Texas, 200 miles, outheast of El Paso.
Relatives said that Hernandez never knowingly would have shot at anyone.
Military patrols along the border were suspended after the shooting.
No criminal or military disciplinary charges were filed against the Marines, and they were cleared by both state and federal grand juries. The Hernandez family received a $1 million settlement from the government.
TUXTLA GUTIERREZ, Mexico — Six days of rain caused flooding that swept away houses, bridges and large trees across the southern Mexico state of Chiapas. At least 25 people drowned and 25 were reported missing and feared dead.
Rescue, aid efforts begin after flooding in Mexico
Seven more died in flash flooding in other southern Mexico states.
On Tuesday, Chiapas Gov. Roberto Albores Guillen declared the area along the Pacific coast a disaster area. He said that at least 25,000 people in more than 50 towns and villages had been driven from their homes.
President Ernesto Zedillo ordered 1,100 army troops and two 727 jets loaded with doctors, medical equipment and specialized personnel to Chianas.
Bad weather made it impossible to get aid by airplane to some isolated towns, where dozens of people were stranded on rooftops and islands, the Televisa television network reported.
More than a dozen bridges were destroyed, and washed-out roads cut off 57 villages. Electricity, water and sewage services also were cut to 20 villages.
Earthquake in Rome kills one, injures several
ROME — A midday earthquake shook the mountain towns of southern Italy yesterday, damaging buildings and killing a man in a rockslide.
Panicked residents fled into the streets in towns close to the quake's epicenter, about 210 miles southeast of Rome.
One woman broke her arm while she was fleeing her home and five other people were hospitalized for shock.
Authorities said that dozens of buildings had been damaged and that some appeared on the brink of collapse.
A 24-year-old Italian who tried to get to safety by parking his car and fleeing on foot died after he was hit by rocks shaken loose from a cliff.
The quake had a preliminary magnitude of 5.5, according to the National Institute of Geophysics.

Contracts help the University, chancellor says
Continued from page 1A
tract provided the University with $7 million up front, with the potential for a total of $21 million in a 10-year period.
Commerce Bank paid the University $10,000 to put a bank branch into the Kansas Union. The Union will receive funds for the next five years in the form of lease payments and royalties from bank-related use of the smart card.
Campus Link will pay the University for its right to provide long-distance service on campus. The phone contract is based on student usage of long distance, so the amount to be paid is not predetermined.
Klinkenberg said that aside from the Athletics Department, those were the only commercial contracts she was aware of.
Olivia Ceesay, Freetown, Sierra Leone graduate student, said she found the on-campus presence of services such as banking and vending helpful.
"It's convenient," she said. "It saves the time and trouble of leaving campus."
Ceesay said things such as Commerce Bank or Coke machines on campus did not seriously affect academics as long as they did not get in the way.
"If the money is used for the enhancement of the University or university life, I don't see anything wrong with it," Seesay said.

KU alumnus, movie director Labute phones home to KJHK
By Augustus Anthony Piazza
Kanson staff writer
A KU alumnus has made a name for himself in the field of chemistry.
Neil Labute, a writer and director, has had two critically acclaimed movies released in the past two years — In the Company of Men and Your Friends and Neighbors.
[Name]
"There's a growing popularity of art-house movies," he said.
Labute was the call-in guest on the KJHK show Real Alternative Radio yesterday.
Labute: Directed Your Friends and Neighbors.
ing," said Rachel Robson, Baldwin junior and host of the show. "I just personally wanted to chat with him. I thought, what kind of a person can make a movie like that?"
"I think he's interest-
Labute's newest movie, *Your Friends and Neighbors*, stars Bent Stiller and Jason Patric.
The movie has been criticized for its cynicism.
Stephen Hunter of The Washington Post said
that Labute's newest movie was misanthropic. On the KJHK show, Labute said his movies were for movieiegoers who enjoyed good films.
Labute was in the theater department when he attended the University of Kansas.
He said on the show that he always had been a closet writer and that when he attended the University, he would walk around campus looking for places to perform his plays.
KU students, professors to help Lawrence survey public opinion
Two University of Kansas professors are working with their students to develop survey questions geared toward the public's opinion on traffic safety and public transportation in Lawrence.
After the broadcast, Labute offered some advice to students. He said that in order to be successful, students had to have tenacity.
The graduate classes and their professors will write the questionnaires and compile the data for the Lawrence citizen survey, which is administered biannually.
He also said that students should be passionate about their goals.
Steven Maynard-Moody, chairman of the department of public administration, Kurt Thraieral, and associate professor of public administration, teach two sections ofPUAD 836.Introduction to Quantitative Analysis.
Your Friends and Neighbors has not reached Lawrence vet.
Stephanie Wachs, a manager at Southwind 12,33rd and Iowa streets, said Your Friends and Neighbors wouldn't be seen in Lawrence for at least two weeks.
By Chris Fickett Kansan staff writer
Roughly three-quarters of the 100 to 115 survey questions will be identical to those of previous surveys. The focus of the remainder of the survey questions will be determined by the Lawrence City Commission and written by Maynard-Moody and Thurmaier's classes.
"If you don't feel like you have to do it, then don't do it." he said.
Wachs said the movie might be difficult for the theater's booker to obtain because there are a limited amount of copies.
Tuesday, Maynard-Moody asked the commission for their input on what
"The movie would most likely be shown in the Plaza 6 movie theater if the booker gets a hold of it." Wachs said.
Maynard-Moody said that traditionally the commission had stated an area of focus for the survey. He said the last survey focused on recreation issues.
issues these questions should target.
Commissioner John Nalbandian, who also is a professor of public administration, said he would like to see people's preferences about public transportation in the survey.
Particularly, he said he would like to know how the public would react to spending money for public-transportation improvements.
Commissioner Bob Moody was interested in the public's opinion on traffic safety.
"I would like to know what the public thinks are our worst intersections," he said.
"The task at hand is getting the questions ready for the survey," he said.
Maynard-Moody said that with the commission's input, professor Thurmaier's class and his class could begin drafting the questions.
The standard questions already written range from how well citizens are
Sarah Hannah, Billings, Mont., graduate student, said that she wanted to work as a city manager after she received her master's degree and that one of the requirements of being a city manager was to use public-opinion data.
pleased with city services, such as police, fire, sanitation and parks, to how they would rate the quality of their neighborhoods, schools, cultural activities and the city as a whole.
"This experience is to learn how surveys work and learn what to look for from data as city managers," she said.
Thurmaier, who has worked on the last four surveys, said those questions remained the same from survey to survey so that an analysis of public opinion through the years could be made.
Once a draft of the questionnaire is commented on by the commissioners and the city manager, the survey will be conducted by phone from Oct. 5 to 18 and the results will be published in January or February, Maynard-Moody said.
One of the students who will be working on the survey said she would gain valuable experience for her future career.
It's immunization or held enrollment
By Sue Franke
Kansan staff writer
Students who have not yet provided proof of having had their measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccinations will have a hold put on their enrollment for the spring semester.
The first vaccination for MMR takes places between 12 and 15 months of age. It's the second vaccination that some students, particularly older, non-traditional students, may have missed.
People born in or after 1978 usually have had the second vaccine. Often, those born between 1963 and 1967 have not been immunized and need to do so, said Diane Hendry, supervisor of required immunizations at Watkins Memorial Health Center.
Watkins provides a health history form that must be completed and signed by a physician to show documentation of vaccination.
"The best thing to do is to just call us to make sure you have turned in everything you need to and it's in order." she said.
Last fall, 10 percent of the records of the 25,108 students enrolled were on hold for failing to show vaccination
documentation.
Students may choose to be exempt from the vaccination for medical, religious or personal reasons. However, they need to indicate the exemption on the health history form.
The form states that in the event of an outbreak of one of these diseases, exempted students would be subject to exclusion from school and quarantine. In addition, students who have not turned in documentation would be asked to leave the University in the case of an outbreak.
Hendry said that the older a student was, the more serious the diseases could be.
hearing loss and in rare cases, sterility," she said.
Hendry said that pregnant women who had contracted rubella, also called three-day measles or German measles, were at risk for delivering a baby with severe birth defects, such as mental retardation, blindness and deafness.
Measles, mumps and rubella are spread by droplet infections, such as coughs, sneezes, direct contact with the saliva of an infected person or contact with contaminated materials.
In the worst case scenario, measles can cause death. Mumps can cause
"Students who need an immunization shot can get one for $10 at Watkins, which is significantly less than what a private-practice physician would charge," said Randall Rock, Watkins chief of staff.
Vaccination Information
People born after Jan. 1, 1957 who have not received the MMR vaccination after one year of age or who have never been diagnosed with measles, mumps or rubella must be immunized
- Students born between 1963 and 1967 who received the vaccine must be re-immunized because of an ineffective vaccine given during that period.
Students can go to Watkins for vaccination shots from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday without an appointment
■ For those who are not sure they have the correct documentation, call the Watkins Immunization Department at 864-9533.

Change to KUIDs difficult for students, maybe profitable for KU
Do you have your rent money?
Check. Do you have your food money? Check. Do you have your tuition and books money? Check. Do you have your smart card money?
This question has ambushed many KU students who otherwise thought they had their fiscal matters under control. Adding yet another hassle to students' lives, many have abruptly found out that they, too, have to cough up $10 to join their fellow students in the technological revolution.
In a front-page article in The University Daily Kansan last April, students were notified of the need to update their archaic KUIDs at the Kansas Union. Not only would they be trend-setters among their peers, but they also would receive the cards for free.
So why are some students still in need of that benchmark in identification design? Embarrassingly, it
The University should not charge students who didn't get new KUIDs last semester.
seems that not every student at KU reads the Kansan. But these students should have heard the buzz around campus, right? It also seems that not every student is knowledgeable about the goings-on at their fine institution. Sadly, these students who didn't get their smart cards are left to pay $10 for something they need.
It is a pity that the University has to squeeze as much money as it can out of its student populace. The raw cost of a smart card to the University is $3.04, Nancy Miles, assistant director of academic computing services said. However, besides just the cost of the card, the University has to cover the
$300,000 bill for smart card equipment and a licensing fee. The weight of the bills are laid on students with the $10 smart card and a $15 charge for a replacement card.
The reason for this apparent price gouging must be that the University is trying to send us "kids" a message about responsibility. If we know we are going to be punished, we won't lose our cards or shrub off our responsibility to get them. Why not financially punish students, many of whom are having a difficult time scraping together enough money to last the year?
the University cannot do business like this. The University should not be engaged in business at all. They should be looking to make us, the students, less worried about trivial matters such as ID cards so that we can enjoy this great institution more fully.

No excuse for torn-up tennis courts
Darkened and empty, the tennis and racquetball courts south of Robinson Center are surrounded by yellow caution tape and orange fences.
Two years ago, the department of KU Public Safety deemed the courts unsafe and closed them to the public. Since their closing, the courts, unfit for use, have taken up valuable space that the University should use to enhance its recreational facilities.
Torn-up and desolate tennis and racquetball courts serve no purpose. They are nothing more than eyesores, and the University should make use of the valuable space. Instead of blocking them off and pretending they do not exist, the courts should be torn up and
The KU Public Safety Office determined two years ago that the courts were unsafe.

Replaced by scout-in-line skating park. Mary Chapel, director of recreational services, said that the department of health, sport and exercise sciences has several proposals for improvement. One such proposal is to modernize the facility with a new in-line skating park.
cours. The final suggestion is to wait until a plan for a new recreational building develops and to use the space for expanding Robinson Center.
Other suggestions include replacing the courts with grass playing fields, resurfacing the courts, adding more outdoor basketball courts or combining tennis and basketball on the same
Although the new Recreational Advisory Board will meet for the first time this week, the probability that plans will form promptly for a new facility are slim. Although the University has chosen not to use student dollars for improvements that may be temporary, there is no excuse like a large plot of land to go completely unused for two years.
Instead of just walking by the vacant courts on your way to Robinson, walk into the department of recreational services and offer them your ideas.

Being a writer means writing from the heart

out by meditating. I meditate on the meaning of my existence. Where have I been so far and why? What kind of impact, if any, has my humble life made on those around me? After I am dead, how will the living remember me?
This year my meditation is about writing. What does being a writer mean for me? I decided to make this question the main subject of my birthday

meditation this time because some of my readers have told me that they were disappointed by some of my perspectives on life.
After all, they reason that I am male, heterosexual, Christian, Black, Congolese by birth, Venezuelan by first naturalization and U.S. citizen by second naturalization. And I write for the opinion page of The University Daily Kansan — such an important public forum!
Some readers, therefore, may expect that I am a dedicated advocate of male chauvinism, homophobia, religious bigotry. Black power, Congolese consciousness, Venezuelan idiosyncrasy and U.S. nationalism. Whenever I depart from these ideals that I am supposed to embrace, I am committing a religious sin, cultural abdication and patriotic betrayal.
These readers have legitimate concerns, and I sympathize with them. However, I don't think that is what being a writer means for me. As a writer, I am in the School of Life, taught by Life itself and tutored by Human Experience. I am simply a human being trying to identify myself with all living beings in all the kingdoms of nature: spiritual, human, vegetable and mineral.
I would like to hope that I am a free thinker. As a free thinker, then, I am an advocate of Life and of all beings through which Life expresses itself. I write by inspiration from Life, not on special assignments by interest groups. My head is in the clouds of the sniri-
tual worlds and my feet on the ground of human sensibilities.
If, in my inspiration, I perceive that angels need my help. I will write about angels. If I see that human beings — all human beings — need my help. I will write about human beings. If I notice that animals need my help. I will write about animals. If I realize that plants need my help. I will write about plants. If I discover that minerals need my help. I will write about minerals.
I do this for a very simple reason: words are power, and power carries with it tremendous responsibility. After my time on earth is up, I want to look back and be able to take full responsibility for everything that I wrote. I want to be able to say: "I thought those things with my own head, felt them with my own heart and wrote them with my own hands."
I want to live as a human being, not as a robot or a puppet. I want to live my own life, for I will die my own death. And when I die, nobody else will give account of my writing
nobody else will give account of my Wrath
— which is my life — but myself. As the apostle
Paul put it: "Whatever a man sows, that he will also reap" (Galatians 6:7).
Writing, as I understand it, is such a personal thing that I cannot borrow it. I endeavor to spell out the life that comes from the core of my being. If something doesn't resonate with me, I won't communicate it.
Separatism is one of those notes that doesn't resonate well on the strings of my heart. If a writer is needed to push the agendas of some groups to the exclusion of other groups, then I am the wrong person for whatever job that is. I would like to be a writer of synthesis, not of paralysis. But I understand that there are all kinds of writers in the world.
Today, as I turn a year more experienced and, hopefully, a year wiser, I want to thank all my readers, all of them, old and new, and of all persuasions. I hope we will continue to walk together on this difficult path of communication!

Feeling old is state of mind but shows state of world
went to the grocery store the other night and came away feeling old.
I saw a display announcing a sale on candv bars — 49 cents. My immediate response
candy bars — 49 cents. My I was: "I remember when the regular price was 25 cents." It was then I realized I had become my mother.
My mother's well-worn speech about how, when she was a kid, she could take her 25 cents-a-week allowance and buy a candy bar, a comic book and go to a double feature, echoed in my head as I walked down the aisles. As a 29-year-old senior, I often feel a bit old around all the 18-to-20-year-olds at the University, but this shopping trip brought

it home. I can remember when pay phones cost a dime and a loaf of bread could be purchased for less than 50 cents without shopping at Aldi.
All of this soul-searching about age has been building for a while. I don't think that approaching 30 years makes me old, it just makes me no longer young. I'm now closer in age to the people who give speeches to teenagers about sex or drugs than I am to the teenagers who hear them. My 20-year-old roommate's mother is the same age as someone I once dated. More important than the actual calendar years is state of mind, but I realized that I just don't get a lot of the things that the traditional undergraduates do, and that their parents' concerns make more sense to me.
So I've decided to put off the whole grown-up thing just a little while longer, at least until I graduate. I've decided to take in the whole college experience. So, here's my plan: I'm going to shave my head three inches from my scalp in an asymmetrical pattern and dye the remainder a very bright color not found anywhere in nature. Then I think I'll pierce my tongue, buy a CD player and a bunch of CDs by groups named after body parts whose members' genders are still a mystery — even to their mothers. After that, I'll go to a club downtown where the music is so loud that they give out Kleenex to stuarch the blood coming out of your ears and the words are different every time because no one can understand them anyway. After that, I'll buy a Kurt Cobain T-shirt and sit around and discuss Courtney Love's sexuality at a coffee house until I sober up. Then I'll sleep through my 9 a.m. class and try to study for the test in my 11 a.m. class between 10:30 and 10:59 while attempting to get the sweater fuzz off the back of my tongue.
On second thought, I need my sleep. My hearing is already impaired, and I really couldn't care less who Courtney Love is or isn't sleeping with.
Maybe I'll just do my homework, curl up with a good book and go to bed early. After all, I need to keep up my grades to get into graduate school. I guess I grew up whether I wanted to or not. So, if you see me in Dillons grousing about the price of bread, just nod and smile.

Feedback
Students shouldn't allocate finances
I agree completely with the views expressed in Partha Mazumdar and David Perico's columns that were published Sept. 8 regarding the Wisconsin ruling allowing students to refrain from paying student fees because they may disagree with some student groups.
I would like to add a point to the ones they have already made.
If a student can refuse to
pay their student fees because they disagree with, say, the Feminist Union, then why can't another refuse to pay because they dislike some other part of the University of Kansas?
If I think the Crimson Girls promote unhealthy images of women or that football is too violent, would I be able to refuse to pay money that would go to the athletic program?
What if the religion department does not solely promote my individual religion when I believe it blasphemous not to do this?
Can I demand that none of my tuition go to that department?
Deciding that students only have to pay for what they agree with creates a situation that I believe would be extremely harmful to the university.
Part of living in a community is supporting things that one, as an individual, might not have chosen themselves.

AIDS stigma affects helpers, professor says
By Julie M. Sachs Kansan staff writer
A University of Kansas professor has studied the kind of person who helps AIDS patients.
S
1
Through his research, Allen Omoto, professor of psychology, learned that the reasons people decide to volunteer affect the length of their service.
volunteered for egocentric reasons were found to remain volunteers for a longer length of time.
These egocentric reasons include personal development, understanding and esteem enhancement.
Although individuals may have volunteered for their own reasons, all volunteers have common experiences in their service.
Oomoto said that volunteers went through stages in their volunteer service and that the final stage, called the consequence stage, illustrated how volunteers were affected by their work.
Negative reactions represent a social consequence that some volunteers experience.
These reactions from society stem from the stereotype of AIDS patients as homosexuals or drug users in society.
good often are not prepared for this negativity.
It is because of people's associations with AIDS to groups
"It is because of people's associations of AIDS to groups who commonly get AIDS." Omuto said.
This stigma greatly has affected how long some people remain as volunteers. Omo told said.
Most people who receive the negative reaction regarding their service tend to go through a psychological withdrawal. Oromo said it led to complete withdrawal from volunteering.
"They tend to drop out more than people who don't get the stigma. We tried to look who would drop out," Oomoto said. "It's not the work — people might opt out because of other people."
During parts of Omoto's research, AIDS patients who are helped by the volunteers fill out questionnaires on how the service helps them, said Suzanne Grace, Overland Park senior, who assists Omoto.
"A lot of things that people say really touch home," Grace said. "They make comments about what the programs mean to them and you see how important the programs really are."
Grace said that many AIDS patients benefited greatly from the volunteer services.
"It really kind of touches you. It kind of makes you realize, 'Wow, this is really important.'" Grace said. "In general, we get a lot of things back that say 'I'd be so lonely without this.'"
Omoto's research is financed by a five-year grant, which ends in 2000. The grant was awarded by the National Institute of Mental Health.

GTAs promote bill
By Julie M. Sachs
Kansan staff writer
Graduate teaching assistants are asking for Chancellor Robert Hemenway to openly support their state employee status.
At last night's Student Senate meeting, the Graduate Teaching Assistant Coalition waited for the approval of a bill asking Hemenway to stop the University from supporting any state legislation that threatened the state employee status of the GTAs.
"We're hoping he will make a written statement to the effect that he will not support any legislation that eliminates our right to collectively bargain under the Public Employers-Employees Relation Act," said Mark Horowitz, Graduate Teaching Assistant Coalition organizer.
Many GTAs were optimistic that the bill would pass.
"It's a trivial thing we're asking for." Horowitz said.
Senate passed the bill late in the session
Part of the race for Hemenway's support of the GTA coalition is the direct result of speculations that in the past, the University supported a state bill which would have stripped the GTAs of their state employee status.
issues. Horowitz brought up this past issue during the question and answer period.
Hemenway addressed Senate at the beginning of last night's meeting and discussed various campus
Hemenway called the allegation "absolutely untrue."
"The University never argued for any part of a bill that would have caused the GTAs not to be employees," Hemenway said.
During Hemenway's address, Horowitz asked for Hemenway's support of the bill.
The Chancellor denied comment regarding the bill and said he would respond to the petition if it passed.
But Hemenway did show support for the GTAs.
"GTAs serve in class and in the lab, Hemenway said. "I consider them to be part of the essential success of KU."
Senate co-sponsors Loveline
By Seth Jones
Kansan staff writer
Student Senate kicked off the year's first meeting last night with a long debate about a bill to co-sponsor MTV's Loveline appearance at the University of Kansas.
Student Union Activities is bringing the popular MTV program to the Lied Center September 18th. SUA asked Senate to contribute $2,000 to help fund the $22,000 cost of bringing the program to campus.
The debate was settled with Senate contributing $1,000 to SUA rather than the $2000 they were asking for.
SENATE LEGISLATION
Veon said many of Senate's constituents were interested in the topics discussed on Loveline.
Melissa Veon, Nunemaker senator, supported the opportunity the co-sponsorship gave Senate.
■ PASSED a bill to fund the 1998 American Red Cross Blood Drive. Called for the allocation of $785.
■ PASSED a bill to finance The Center for Community Outreach's Art Reaching Toward Tolerance in Students. Called for allocation of $619.
■ PASSED a bill to fund the Pharmacy Fair. Called for the allocation of $718.
■ PASSED a bill to co-sponsor with Student Union Activities the appearance of MTV's Loveline on campus. Called for the allocation of $2,000 but was amended to allocate $1,000.
out, she said.
Tiffany Crow, SUA Vice President of Alumni Relations, said whether Senate contributed money to bring the program to the University, Loveline still would come. The programwould lose money even if it sold
As an additional incentive to co-sponsor the program, Crow said SUA would invite 20 members of Senate to an after-hours party with the show's hosts.
But Luke Pfannensteil, all scholarship hall senator, said there was no logical incentive to support the program.
"If this program is going to lose money anyway, I don't feel like I can justify us spending $2,000 so I can go to a party." He said.
Veon pointed out that besides good press, Lovevelle would also help students talk about problems they have.
"As a former resident assistant, I know what a hot topic sex is," Veon said.
A compromise was made, and Partha Muzumdar, graduate senator, amended the bill to give SUA $1,000.

Exhibit to show paintings of retired KU art professor
By Augustus Anthony Piazza
Kanson staff writer
A retrospective of the paintings by a retired University of Kansas art professor will be on display tomorrow at Roy's Art Gallery.
Robert Sudlow, a renowned landscape painter, retired in 1987 after teaching at the University for 41 years.
Erin Shirley, sales associate for Roy's Art Gallery, 1410 Kasold Drive, said that the gallery would be showing 50 paintings and 10 lithographs from the '40s to the '90s.
There will be a reception from 7 to 10 p.m. tomorrow, which will be accompanied by a verbal presentation by Sudlow at 8 p.m. and live jazz music.
"He's a neat guy and a best-seller," Shirley said. "We wanted to have a show for Robert. We wanted to show how he has evolved as a painter."
Nick Vaccaro, retired art professor and colleague of Sudlow from 1963 to 1987, said he was looking forward to seeing some of the older work.
Peter Thompson, dean of the School of Fine Arts, said he wanted to see some of Sudlow's more recent work.
"Sudlow is a legend around here." Thomp
son said. "His style is popular and well known."
Sudlow's painting style differs from other artists in more ways than just how he uses color and brush strokes — where he uses them is what distinguishes him most.
Sudlow, 78, is known for painting landscapes outdoors rather than in a studio.
"When I paint, it is like the landscape becomes part of me, and I become part of the landscape," Sudlow said. "I have never painted a landscape that I can't walk through."
He would take his classes into the country to paint and would work with students individually.
"I miss the bright, young kids that restore my faith," Sudlow said.
In addition to receiving acknowledgment from his colleagues, Sudlow also has received numerous awards from Kansas Governor's Artist to The Phoenix Award for exceptional Artist Achievement.
He said his favorite accomplishment was in 1977 when he was selected for inclusion in "A Sense Of Place," a national exhibition of contemporary American landscape paintings.
Sudlow said he continued to paint because he had a horror of standing still.
Symposium one part of McNair Program
Scholars set to present projects
By Carolyn Mollett
Kansan staff writer
The McNair Scholars Program will hold its 1986 symposium today from 2:30 to 5 p.m. at the Centennial Room in the Kansas Union.
The symposium is open to anyone and is an opportunity for McNair Scholarship students to present their research projects in 10-minute intervals. Projects vary in subject matter from "Gender Perceptions of Gay Men" to "An Analysis of Diversity Courses at the University of Kansas."
Nearly all of the KU McNair Scholars worked on in-depth research papers on a subject of their choice throughout the summer with the help of a KU faculty mentor.
through in graduate school," said Robert Rodriguez, academic services coordinator of the McNair Scholars Program.
"The they conduct devised toward preparing them for what they will be going
McNair Scholars are students interested in pursuing a Ph.D. who are first-generation college students with a low-income background, or who are members of an underrepresented group in graduate studies, such as Hispanic Americans, African Americans and Native Americans.
Erica K Morris, Philadelphia junior, is a McNair Scholar who researched the history of the Young Women's Christian Association Yates Branch of Kansas City. Morris said she never realized how much work was involved in a large research project.
"It's extremely helpful to anyone who is interested in graduate school," Morris said.
Seventeen McNair Scholars completed the summer research project, and they received three hours of credit for their work. They met once a week during the summer. Five students traveled to Pennsylvania State University in August to present their projects at
the McNair Scholars Summer Research Conference.
"You get to see what people from all over the country are doing and what they're researching," said Aron Carlson, Lenexa junior.
Carlson presented his 25-page paper titled "Thoughts Solar to the Introspective Eye and Exegesis of the Human Being."
Carlson said he read a packet in an introductory philosophy course that brushed on the topic.
"I thought they were pretty natural questions to ask." Carlson said of his project.
The McNair Scholars Program was established at the University in 1992. The national program was named for Ronald E. McNair, an astronaut killed in the Challenger explosion.
The program is accepting applications for about seven new scholars, and the deadline is Sept. 30. Scholastic requirements are a 3.0 or higher grade point average and a commitment to pursue a Ph.D.
Betas, Thetas top greek GPA averages
By Sarah Hole
Kansan staff writer
Every semester, the grade point averages for all the sororities and fraternities are tallied and are compared with the rest of the University of Kansas.
After nearly 50 years of comparing the numbers and fighting for the No.1 position, consistency is the main trend.
Wes Simons, assistant director for greek programs, said that over time the averages of all students had not changed dramatically.
"The numbers haven't fluctuated a great deal," Simons said. "If they do, it's rarely more than five one-hundredth of a point."
The chapters have a tendency to balance each other out, Simons said.
"Each year, it depends on the chapter," he said. "Some chapters have a horrible semester or will have small things happen with big effects."
The Spring 1998 greek results
Simons said that efforts were being made within each house to increase the averages by more than just one-hundredth of a point.
were above the rest of KU students, who had a 2.90. In Spring 1990, the University average was 2.86.
"We're trying to get in the houses and start with the new members," he said. "We tell them about student development, the student advising center and peer tutoring."
With the exception of four semesters, Beta Theta Pi has reigned as the fraternity with the highest GPA since at least 1950. They remained in first place with a 1.98 for spring 1998.
Lamba Chi Alpha took second place with a 3.141, and Phi Delta Theta was third with a 3.021.
Kappa Alpha Theta took first in the women's averages with a 3.317 and moved up from second place a year ago. Kappa Alpha Theta has been in the top three for at least five years.
Chi Omega took second place with a 3.284 and Alpha Delta Pi was third with a 3.265.
Phi Delta Theta fraternity placed eighth in Spring 1997 with a 2.888 GPA but moved up to third last spring.
Delta Delta Delta sorority fell by more than five places. The chapter went from fourth place
with a 3.101 GPA in 1997 to 10th with a 3.007 GPA last spring.
"We're very concerned about the drop," said Cassidy Richards, Delta Delta Academy chair. "We just voted on a new scholarship policy to try and make everything more positive instead of just punishing them."

Former KU runner dreams idea for his Jayhawk book
THE JAYHAWK
FACT OR MYTH
By Mariana Paiva
Kansan staff writer
Dave Kamar's connection with the University of Kansas is so intense that 30 years after he graduated, he still dreams about Jayhawks and has stayed up all night writing a short story about the mythical bird.
Kamrar, former mem ber of the Kansas track team, released a book last month called "Jayhawk: Fact or Myth," which was inspired by a dream he had about the origin of KU's mascot.
Kamrar said he wrote the entire 32-page book just after waking from the dream last year. He wanted to have someone else illustrate the book but was unable to find anybody.
"I tried to find someone in Lawrence and here in California to illustrate the book, but no one had time," Kamrar said. "So, I did it myself."
He said he dedicated about 10 to 15 hours apiece to drawing the 10
pictures in the book. The result is a colorful book about how the Jayhawk came to be.
Kamrar said that when he finished the book, he came to the University to show it to Chancellor Robert Hemenway and to have his approval for selling it.
"I fell in love with KU. It is a wonderful place to go to school." Kamrar said. "I still visit in once or
twice a year."
Kamrar said he would donate a portion of the sales to the track program.
"I want to give back part of the scholarship they gave to me," he said.
Gary Schwartz, track head coach and Kamrar's teammate in the '60s, said he was very pleased with Kamrar's commitment to the track program.
but someone who loves the University enough to make this donation, he said.
Kamrar is not a person with unlimited resources,
"We didn't keep in close contact after we graduated, but when I came back to KU in 1988, Kamarar was the first one to call me to congratulate me," Schwartz said. "It is fun to renew a friendship that started in school."
Kamrar said he would come to the University Oct. 3 to promote and sign his book at the Mt. Oread Bookshop in the Kansas Union. The book is on sale in the bookstore for $12.95.
Kamrar said that he planned to release a book about the history of KU basketball and also a memory book about the University.
"As long as I have inspiration, I won't stop writing about KU," he said.
He asks students, faculty members or alumni interested in helping to contribute photos, drawings, sketches and anecdotes.
Kamrar can be reached at 1317 Magnolia Avenue, Modesto, Calif., 95350 or at GOKUO@aol.com.
University purchases new administrative software
By Melody Ard
Kanson staff writer
Admissions, student records, enrollment and billing are among the areas that will be affected by PeopleSoft, a new software package.
The University of Kansas decided to purchase the vendor software for the administrative computer system instead of developing the software inhouse as it had been doing. University Registrar Richard Morrell said.
Abrens said the computer system would cover six areas of University operations: admissions, which includes recruitments and application processing; student records, including enrollment and grades; financial aid packages and awards; tuition, fees and billing; academic advising and keeping track of campus community demographics information.
In addition to making improvements in record keeping, the software will help staff quickly change data within the system.
"I'd say the systems we now have allow the system to be more integrated and makes the administrative process easier," said Ola Faucher, associate director of human resources.
"This particular software has an increasing concentration on higher-education clients."
The system is in the beginning stages of operation at the University, and Morrell estimated that it would take at least a couple years for the system to be fully functional.
Meanwhile, there are six teams of faculty members learning each aspect of the system. Those faculty members will become the "experts" in their departments when the system is in use.
"We have to fade out the old system," Morrell said. "There are 450,000 student-data records to produce. Right now, it is in the early stages. We have a lot of input from users of administrative teams and over 60 faculty and staff members on various teams working on implementation."
Once the University staff is finished familiarizing themselves with the system, the next step will be to do a fit-and-gap analysis of the software.
"Fit means fitting our policies and procedures to the way the software works, and gap means determining what policies and procedures don't work with the system," Morrell said. "After that, we'll close the gaps and
migrate the data, test for bugs and implement."
Faucher said that she expected to find bugs in the system but that they probably wouldn't be things that will be too difficult to overcome.
"Any major software change will have challenges, and this one will too, even though it is focused for higher education," Faucher said. "We will also have special needs for KU."
Morrell said he thought one problem the University would avoid was a shutdown of the administrative computer system at the new millennium.
"The new software is completely 2000 compliant, and we are well in the process of making the old software compliant, too," he said. "We are not under any pressure, and it is a nice pressure not to have. A lot of universities are finding out they'll either miss deadlines or won't have a fully functional product."
Overall, the new software would make the administration computer system more efficient.
"In my opinion, this is the best student-records software I've seen," Morrell said. "What I like about it is that it is very, very flexible. The frustrating thing is how long it it takes to make modifications on the old system."
Doctoral students give psychological assistance to Lawrence schoolchildren
Kansan stuff writer
By Carolyn Mollett
Doctoral students in the clinical child psychology program have the chance to gain realworld experience working with children through the Lawrence public schools.
The Elementary Therapeutic Classroom (ETC) is a program that helps Lawrence children in kindergarten through sixth grades with significant emotional problems. Some of the children have been hospitalized at some point for self-destructive behavior or severe mood swings.
This semester, six of the 25 doctoral students in clinical child psychology are participating.
"A pretty good portion of our students will do that eventually," said Eric Vernberg, associate professor of psychology.
Each ETC session is a half-day in length, and there is a session each day of the school week.
"From the time kids get there to the time they leave, we constantly work with them around their actions and reactions to things," Vernberg said.
The goal of the program is to work with the children so they can return to the regular classroom for the entire day.
"We do quite a few things to help kids to verbalize feelings rather than acting them out," Vernberg said.
Vernberg said some children already had made the transition out of ETC and into the classroom full-time.
Joe Nye was a full-time psychologist with Lawrence public schools while he worked on his doctoral degree in psychology with a minor in pediatric psychology at the University. He saw a need in the public schools for psychological services.
"Historically, these children have had a tough time accessing mental health care." Nyre said.
He decided to create a program that would benefit the schools and give KU graduate students experience. He said that it was difficult at first to bring everyone together but that the clinical child psychology program was very accommodating. He said the kinks eventually were ironed out so the ETC could be created.
"Since its inception, the program has grown 300 percent," Nyre said.
Nyre is currently interning at Harvard Medical School in order to complete his doctoral requirements for the University of Kansas. He said he hoped to
return and continue working with the ETC as it grows.
Camille Randall, Edmund, Okla., graduate student, has been with the ETC since its inception in February 1997.
She said it was important for children who had difficulties functioning within regular school settings to have therapy more frequently.
"Mental health care, more and more, isn't going to be just face to face an hour a week," Randall said.
There are three sessions of ETC. Two are held at Hillcrest Elementary, and one is held at Cordley Elementary.
Each session has six children. One clinical psychology graduate student at a time is in a session. Lawrence special education teachers also teach with the KU students.
The KU students hold individual psychotherapy with the children twice a week, and there are group therapy sessions every day.
The individual sessions are usually a discussion about situations where the children do not act appropriately.
Group sessions usually involve games that teach children how to interact with others and follow rules.

Great Outdoors
Students should enjoy outdoors while they can
By Chad Bettes
Kansan staff writer
With summer waning, recreation seekers are expected to take Clinton Lake and State Park by storm in the next week.
Dave Rhoades, park manager for the U.S. Corps of Engineers, said that the park and lake provided plenty of activities and space to accommodate many people's interests.
There are six parks surrounding Clinton Lake: Clinton State, Outlet,
Rockhaven, Bloomington, Woodridge and Overlook. Rhodades said that while each park provided different amenities, together they provided campgrounds, swimming beaches, a golf course, picnic shelters, sports fields and trails for hiking, biking and horseback riding.
The State Park and Bloomington Park each have approximately 400 campsites available on a first-come,first-serve basis. Rhoades said reservations for camping would be taken in the future,but the system is not yet in
place.
Miles of paved and unpaved trails are available at several parks. Rhoades recommended Woodridge Park for those who enjoy hiking, backpacking or camping in a primitive setting. He said there is a trail around the perimeter of the park, but the remainder is left natural.
Many people also are expected to participate in water activities. Rhoades said a large number of boaters, water skiers, jet skiers and wind surfers will be on the lake. He urged students to
"We ask that everyone follow state regulations when boating and encourage them to wear life jackets," Rhoades said.
play safely.
Clinton Lake State Park does charge fees for use of various areas and activities. Rhoades said camping prices ranged from $4 to $12 per night and that the boat ramp fee was $2. The park also charges a $4 per vehicle entrance fee.
Picnic shelters vary in price from $20 to $30, depending on whether they are rented for half- or full-days. The shelters require reservations.
Hunting and fishing are allowed at Clinton Lake, but Rhoades said people must buy the appropriate permits or licenses from the Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks to use the 9,000 acres of hunting ground. Seasonal hunting restrictions apply.
The U.S. Corps of Engineers gives assistance to lake patrons seven days a week at its visitors center. Rhoades urged people with questions or those in need of a map to go to the center during business hours, 7:30 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Many agencies share management of Clinton Lake, park recreation
City, federal, state groups share duties
Clinton Lake and State Park are popular Lawrence attractions, accommodating nearly one million visitors annually. But just who runs it, owns it and funds it?
The answer can be confusing, said Dave Rhoades, park manager for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. The Corps, Douglas County, the city of Lawrence and the Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks all have a hand in lake and park operations. The federal government ownr
The federal government owns
the land, and the lake was built with federal money. Rhoades said. Because of this, the Corps originally was responsible for the entire park.
Since then, local government entities have leased portions of the park land from the Corps for special purposes. The city of Lawrence, for instance, leases Outlet Park for a golf course and sports complex, Rhoades said.
Another lease was granted when the Douglas County Preservation Alliance wanted to perform a preservation project on the Barber School, a 127-year-old building.
DCPA, said private funds were raised for the project, and the building received a 1997 award of excellence from the Kansas Preservation Alliance.
Bev Worster, president of
Tax dollars normally are used to operate the park area, said Roades. Fees collected at the park help to defray expenses.
Clinton Lake was built over several years and was filled beginning in 1977. The lake is in the Wakarua Valley. It is eight miles long and has 7,000 surface acres.
In addition to its recreational purposes, the lake provides about half of Lawrence's water supply. Rhodes said.

Mountain bike trails near Kansas River offer something for every cycling level
By Chris Fickett
Kansan staff writer
Cyclists of all levels can enjoy the mountain bike trails along the north edge of the Kansas River.
One option is to take a ride along the river levee to Perry Lake or Eudora. Cyclists also can divert to some of the National Off-road Bike Association's approved mountain bike trails near North Eighth and Oak streets.
Justin Hawkins, Overland Park sophomore, said that there were different trails for different riding abilities.
"It's pretty accessible to all levels," he said.
Hawkins said that he did not do a
lot of mountain biking but that he still enjoyed the trails.
"They're a blast," he said. "It's great to go out there with some friends and just cruise around."
Stacey Lamer, Kansas City, Kan. senior, said that she enjoyed riding on the trail near the river.
"It's a really nice trail, and it's pretty well maintained," she said.
Kaye Long, co-owner of Cycle Works, said that volunteers helped build and maintain the trails.
Long said that there were trail maintenance days once a month, usually Satursdays.
"There's the faithful few that go out there," she said.
Lamer said that she had attended the trail maintenance days twice.
She said that she cut away any branches that were hanging too low over the trail.
In addition to cutting branches, volunteers also operate tillers and mowers. Lamer said.
Long said that interested volunteers should check for filers posted monthly in most of the bike shops around Lawrence. She also said that the filers offered some tips for volunteers.
"Bring some gloves and a strong back." she said.
"If you want to enjoy what Lawrence has to offer, you have to put in a little work," she said.
Long said that riders who used the trails also should help maintain them.
Local outdoor-equipment stores aim to arm weekend warriors
By Brad Hallier Kansan staff writer
Camping, water skiing and hiking are a few of the ways many people enjoy their weekends.
Lawrence has several stores and warehouses that offer all kinds of outdoor equipment and aim to satisfy every outdoor need.
Backwoods Equipment Company Inc., 916 Massachusetts St., has a wide variety of climbing gear and knives.
Scott Rader, Lawrence junior, is a salesperson at Backwoods. He said that because the store dealt with the KU Climbing Club and area Boy Scouts, it had a large variety of backpacks and shoes.
"Clothing is our biggest seller, and with school recently starting, we've sold a lot of backpacks," he said. "We also have a variety of camping equipment, and we have all the accessories. We even have books on cooking and climbing. We also do a lot of specialty orders, so if you need it, we can get it."
Sunflower Outdoor & Bike, 802-804 Massachusetts St. sells a little bit of everything, said Chad Kemper, a manager.
"We specialize in almost everything, nothing specific," he said. "We have a broad customer base, from 12-year-old boys buying combat boots, to 75-year-old women buying swimsuits."
The store has a wide range of bicycles and a bicycle repair shop. Kemper said Sunflower would fix any bike, even if it wasn't purchased from the store.
Kemper also has noticed a late-summer push of people buying a lot of merchandise. He said the store had sold plenty of bikes, clothing, sunglasses and sandals.

For water lovers, there are a few places around town to find the necessary equipment.
"When the students get back in town, they like to get out and show and spend money," he said.
Linda Kelley, a salesperson at Arnie's Boat Sales and Service, 2036 E. 1400 Road, said that although the store did not rent boats, it sold a variety of new and used ones. The store's bass boats, which have special carpeting, are designed specifically for fishing. Kelley said Arnie's would check and repair any boat, regardless of where it was purchased.
"We repair boats and motors," she said. "This is a busy time for us because of the season. A vast majority of people think it's the last time to get out."
The store has plenty of accessories for any boat.

"We have a large showroom, and it contains everything from ski rope, water toys for kids, oils for boats, fiber glass, boat wax, trailer lights and gas tanks," Kelley said.

Pugh's surgery is successful
10
Pugh: Underwent surgery yesterday.
T. J. Pugh, senior forward, underwent successful arthroscopic surgery on his left ankle yesterday afternoon.
Pugh will be out of action four to six weeks. He should be ready to play when practice begins Saturday, Oct. 17.
"The surgery is something that needed to be done," said Roy Williams, Kansas basketball coach. "It is something T.J. wanted to get out of the way in order to have full recovery time before the start of the season."
Discovered by an X-ray, Pugh's injury was diamaged as a bone chip in the ankle.
The University of Kansas medical staff felt it was best to perform the surgery immediately in hopes that the injury would not conflict with the start of the season.
Pugh missed nine games with a foot stress fracture last season. However, he still was an Academic All-Big 12 selection, averaging 5.7 points per and 5 rebounds per game.
"T.J.'s play and senior leadership will be important to us," Williams said. "We would like for him to be healthy when we begin in mid-October."
"It is something T.J. wanted to get out of the way in order to have full recovery time before the start of the season."

Freshman makes first 'big play'
Kansas Football
Bv Jodi M. Smith
Kansan Sportswriter
Only a year ago he was playing quarterback on his high school football team at Grandview High School in Grandview, Mo.
Now Byron Gasaway is a true freshman wide receiver for the Jayhawks who has done something no other Kansas wide receiver has done this season — scored a touchdown.
In the Javhawks' 38-28 loss to the
Oklahoma State Cowboys Saturday, Gasaway scored the Jayhawks' fourth touchdown of the game on a 35-yard reception from quarterback Zac Wegner. The touchdown tied the score at 28-28
came to get it on, and that's how he scored.
"He made a big play, too. He caught the ball with a man jumping in his face, tightroped the sideline, and then dragged the man in. So, he stepped up."
Gasawav is modest.
"Anybody else could have done the same thing, any of the other receivers." Gasaway said.
"You know, he's a freshman. His first year of college ball, I couldn't imagine doing what he did."
Although he spent his last two years in high school as a quarter-
with less than 10 minutes left.

Wegner wasn't the only one impressed.
"He's going to be fun to throw it to this year," Wegner said. "T'll tell you what, he made a big play. You know, he's a freshman. His first year of college ball, I couldn't imagine doing what he did. I'd have been pissing my pants. He stayed in there and played well, and I was really impressed."
"I was surprised — he stepped up," said Mitch Bowles, running back. "I already told him don't step out there unless you're ready to play. You better ask for your red shirt if you ain't going to come to get it on. And he

"At first there was a little bit of pressure," Gasaway said. "But the coaches and everybody else helped me prepare. After a
while you start getting into game type situations, and it's pretty easy to get used to after that."
A first-game touchdown was not what he expected, though.
"Somebody had to make the play, and it just happened to be me at that time." Gasaway said.
His touchdown wasn't the only thing he didn't expect. After seeing the crowd at the first game, Gasaway was well aware that he was not in high school anymore.
"This is a big step up from high school," Gasaway said. "There is a lot of fan support here. It just felt good to get my first-game college jitters out."
Volleyball nets success
Kansan sportswriter
By Laura Bokenkroger
A new air of confidence surrounds the Kansas volleyball team this year.
Many had predicted a new era of Kansas volleyball, defined by more wins and driven by new coach Ray Bechard, but none had predicted such a successful beginning.
"I think our start exceeds a lot of people's expectations in terms of wins and losses," Bechard said. "We still have room to grow as a team, but I feel the best about the team gaining confidence."
After a disappointing 9-24 season in 1997, the Jayhawks have jumped out to a 5-0 start — the second best in school history.
The Jayhawks began the season 4-0 by winning the Western Michigan Early Bird Tournament without losing a game.
With only one day off, the Jayhawks traveled Tuesday to Wichita and defeated the Wichita State Shockers in four games.
"I could sense they were confident before we'd played a match," Bechard said. "You can talk it all day, but you have to be able to perform in a game. That's the difficult part of the scenario. They feel good about that."
Kansas won a record 13 consecutive season-opening games before losing to Wichita State in the second game of the match.
"I think our charisma or team chemistry is helping us," said middle blocker Amanda Reves. "We have been able to come back when we were down in some games. We have a core to build on now."
Bechard said now the team's goal was to improve as a team and to prepare for league play.
This success contrasts last year's squad, which only won nine matches all season.
"Early in the year, I think it is important to manage ourselves rather than worry too much about scouting everyone else." Bechard said.
The Jayhawks have spent practices trying to correct defensive posture and to sharpen technical skills. Reves said.
Bechard said that his team's determination had been the most essential part of their achievements.
"I just think there were games we could've given up and said we might not get this one," Bechard said. "But we stuck our nose in there and competed, and we were able to come back."
"We need to perfect the basic things," she said.
The Jayhawks will take their perfect record to Indianapolis and host Butler University tomorrow to play in the Doubletree Guest Suites Classic. Bechard said the teams participating in the tournament would be the toughest they had faced so far.

Of course, what I'm really doing is watching ESPN, waiting for the most recent home-run update like a child waits for Christmas morning.

So as the sporting world brings my academic career to a grinding halt (I'm sure the booze hasn't helped), I'll let you in on what's been running through my head recently.
And trust me, it ain't that national security policy test I have coming up.
Mark McGwire has single-handedly saved backball. No question.

And in the end, that may prove to be
more historic than his amazing home-run record.

And in the end, that may prove to be more historic than his amazing home-run record.
The former home-run king played for two weeks under Bud Wilkenson before giving up the college life for a shot at pro ball.
So that's why McGwire is so nice to the Maris family.
Public announcement: I'm officially jumping on the "Tim Couch for Heisman" bandwagon (really going out on a limb. I know).
I've liked Couch since last season, but after last Saturday's seven-touchdown performance, I'm ready to get behind the 6-foot-5 junior quarterback lock, stock and barrel.
Here's the scenario: Couch continues to put up amazing numbers (50+ touchdown passes), Kentucky shows improvement from last year (the Wildcats will go 8-4) and they finish the season in a semi-major bowl (the Outback).
All that adds up to Couch walking away with the Heisman and straight into the NFL.
Up next for Couch & Company: Eastern Kentucky. Rack up 10 more touchdown passes for the nation's best passer.
I went home to Oklahoma for the holiday weekend and bumped into 72,000 rabid—at least for the afternoon — Jayhawks fans.
My roommates and I were sitting at the Oklahoma football game when the Kansas/Oklahoma State game came across the scoreboard. When the crowd saw that Kansas had tied the score, the stadium erupted in cheers. I even heard a few "Rock Chalk" chants.
I swear to Cod, I'm not making this up.
- Random thought: Why does the lawn (if you can call it that) in front of Watson library look like it was mowed by a flock of sheep.
Although they lost 38-28, the Jayhawks looked better Saturday than Expected
While talking with locals before the game, I got the feeling that things could get ugly. But that was hardly the case. Terry Allen's squad played tough and looked like a much more cohesive team than last year.
It still might not be enough to get a win at Missouri. Corby Jones now has a national reputation to maintain and will be looking for paybacks after last season's debacle in Lawrence.
We all know that Kansas State's Bill Snyder likes to build his early schedule with teams from college football's third world. Heck, he built his program around it. But Indiana State?
C'mon. You've got to do better than that.
Scheduling karma has a way of catching up to you. Like doing the Kentucky Derby in 1835."
I'm pretty sure that I could round up a crew of Massachusetts Street winos and give the mighty Sycamores a run for their money. Me at quarterback. Whiskey Bob at receiver.
"It was like doing the Kentucky Derby in 1935." — ESPN radio announcer discussing his last trip to Kansas' Memorial Stadium's decrepit press boxes.
Big 12 game of the week: Texas at UCLA.
Remember last year's 66-3 drubbing? It isn't going to be that bad this year, but don't look for the Longhorns to win. They may have Ricky Williams, but you'll be hard pressed to find much more. UCLA 42, Texas 17.

It might seem like every time you turn around, you're running into a closed door. That's OK. The lesson for today is about patience and perseverance. Don't give up. Let others know what's in it for them, and you'll get them working for you instead of against you.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23); Today is a 6.
It's time to make a financial decision. There could be something a little difficult about this one, but you're in a good position to open the communication channels.
If you've got a conflict going, especially with a loved one, just keep the other person talking.
LA RELAISON
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 10.
Something you want to happen isn't quite materializing, but that doesn't mean it never will. There are commitments to be made, and details to be figured out. Take care of them first.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 5.
The work's there, and your responsibility is increasing.
Don't worry. The money will come, too. It's just a matter of getting things rolling first. Right now, look to see what needs to be done, then jump in and do it.
You're investing in your own future, and it's going to work, too.

SCARAB
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 6.
Something at work won't go the way you planned it.
An assignment you're offered seems practically impossible. Just get back to the drawing board. You need a pattern to follow, and you may have to draw it up yourself. Now the assignment doesn't look so hard, does it? It's just another way for you to show off your talent.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 4.
There's stress on you, some of it financial. You're not sure where you're going to get the money you want to achieve your objectives. Those goals look almost within reach, too. Don't let a minor setback get you down. It's just another puzzle to be solved.

Chicago Bulls could see Jackson, Jordan return
The Associated Press
CHICAGO — There still may be a chance that Michael Jordan and former coach Phil Jackson both would return to the Chicago Bulls, Jordan's agent told a newspaper.
The Chicago Sun-Times reported yesterday that agent David Falk said Jordan "definitely wants to come back.
"But only in a situation where he feels he has a chance to win another championship. So, he wants to see what happens with Scottie Pippen, who else will be on the team and who the coach will be.
CHICAGO BULLS
"Personally, without being too much of a wide-eyed dreamer, I still believe there are some scenarios where Phil Jackson can come back despite the fact he has said he won't come back." Falk
told the newspaper.
Calls to Falk's office yesterday were referred to his public relations department, where a woman refused to comment on the accuracy of Falk's reported remarks.
A message left at the office of Jackson's agent Todd Musburger, was no immediately returned.
Jordan: Agent says he still might play for Chicago.
Falk told the Sun-Times that if Jordan would let him get involved, he believed that he could work out an arrangement with Bulls chairman Jerry Reinsdorf for both Jordan and Jackson to return.
"But right now, Michael wants me to stay
out of it," Falk said. "He wants things to unfold naturally. He wants to see what the Bulls do on their own and what his 14 years of service really means to them."
Jackson left the six-time NBA champions in June, and Jordan often has said that he would play only for Jackson.
BRIAN R. WEBSTER
Scottie Pippen said in
Jackson: There still might be a chance that he will return.
August that he didn't expect to return to the Bulls after the NBA lockout ends and he that he didn't think Jordan would either.
The Bulls have hired Tim Floyd as their coach-in-waiting, calling him the director of basketball operations until the NBA lockout ends and Jordan announces his decision about whether to stay or retire.
Reinsdorf also said he would try one last time to coax Jackson to return, but Musburger has said that would not happen.

LaFrentz stuck in lockout limbo

Raef LaFrentz as the third pick in the NBA draft, he was excited.

good situation to LaFrentz and his agent. He would play a lot of minutes for a team striving to rebuild.
"It is a great situation," said Mike Higinis, LaFenfess's agent. "He has a
chance to come in, play a lot and help the team grow. Dan Issel (Nugget general manager) sees a lot of Raaf in himself."
LaFrentz agreed that he has stepped into a great situation.
"They had a tough year last year, but they seem to be dedicated to rebuilding the team," LaFrentz said. "They seem to be a team on the upswing."
The lockout means that there can be no trades, player signings or contract negotiations between players and team representatives.
LaFrentz had until July 1 to contact the Nuggets before the league imposed a lockout on its players.
The lockout reached a standstill in early August when the owners walked out on the players' proposals.
The owners are arguing for a hard salary cap that eliminates the loopholes in the previous cap. This

allows teams
to re-sign
their own veterans at any price, no matter how much money they have left under their cap.
With players like the Washington Wizards' Juwan Howard and the Miami Heat's Alonzo Mourning enjoying contracts of $100 million, owners feel that several of the league's teams are on the way to financial ruin.
Negotiations have not progressed since August. A recent Associated Press report predicted the lockout would not be resolved by the start of preseason.
Everyone understands the importance of starting the season on time," Higgins said. "It isn't as prevalent
right now as it will be in a month."
While everyone suffers during a lockout, rookies and free agents without contracts have more worries.
"The lockout hinders all players but particularly the rookies and free agents," said Ellen LaFrentz, Raef's mother. "It keeps them from blending with the team and becoming part of a family."
Though Reef LaFrentz is without a basketball contract now, money is no worry. He recently signed an endorsement deal with And One, a shoe company, and he has signed a few exclusive trading-card deals.
Right now, all he can do is hope the season begins soon.
"Everything is up in the air right now," LaFrentz said. "As a rookie, I don't really know how to prepare. I just try to stay in shape and keep up, so I'll be in decent shape when Denver calls."
KU basketball alumnae score big in leagues
By Melinda Weaver
Kayne sportswriter
The Kansas men's basketball program has a tradition of producing NBA players.
Kansan sportswriter
Greg Ostertag and Danny Manning have made headlines at the professional level.
Less heralded, but just as significant, are the contributions female basketball alumnae are making in the Women's National Basketball League and the American Basketball League.
Tamecka Dixon, Lynette Woodard and Angela Aycock are making their own headlines as professional basketball players.
The WNBA season ended Sept. 1 when the Houston Comets won their second consecutive championship.
The ABL season begins Nov. 5.
Tamecka Dixon
Dixon, guard for the Los Angeles Sparks, had a strong second season after struggling as a rookie.
After being chosen 14th in the WNBA's inaugural draft, Dixon spent the first half of the 1997 season as a starter before being benched.
However, this season Dixon
helped the Sparks improve to 10-13
by averaging 20 points per game.
Dixon led the team in scoring and was the only Sparks player to be named Player of the Week. She also ranked in the top 20 in four WNBA statistical categories: points per game, assists per game, free throw percentage and blocks per game.
Dixon's graduation in 1997 couldn't have come at a better time. Because it coincided with the opening season of the WNBA, she never had to venture overseas to pursue her basketball career.
"I feel very fortunate to be able to play in the United States," Dixon said. "I was fortunate to come out of college and jump right into the league. I never had to play overseas. I have my mom to thank for that. She had me at the right time."
As she had me in the fight time
Lynette Woodard
Woodard, a 1981 Kansas graduate, was not blessed with the same opportunity.
Woodard left as the NCAA's alltime leading scorer with 3,649 points, but she found there were few career options awaiting a female athlete.
She also played with two Olympic teams. She was captain of the 1984 team, which won the gold medal.
Woodard had been in retirement for a year, working as a stockbroker in New York when the WNBA began.
seven seasons overseas.
Woodard played two seasons with the Harlem Globe Trotters, a season with an all-male team and
She came out of retirement to join the league.
"it's been lots of fun," Woodard said. "I have the opportunity to play the game I've loved for so long in the United States."
Following a season playing for the Cleveland Rockers, the Detroit Shock selected Woodard in the February 1998 expansion draft.
While only playing 13 minutes a game, she averaged three points and two rebounds. She was awarded the 1998 Pioneer Award, which is given to players, coaches and others who contribute to the growth of women's basketball.
Woodard attributed her success to her experience at the University of Kansas, especially the influence of coach Marian Washington.
"She's the greatest coach in the country," Woodard said. "She understands the players because she's been there. She knows how to get you motivated and help you
grow not only as a basketball player but also as a person. She's the very best."
Angela Avcock
Aycock, a 1995 Kansas graduate, has achieved professional success in the American Basketball League. The Seattle Reign drafted her in 1966 before the league's inaugural season.
Aycock became the starting guard in January 1997. Her three point field goal percentage of .404 ranked eighth in the ABL last season.
Aycock described her time at Kansas as great but said nothing could have prepared her for playing in a professional league.
"The professional game is a lot more physical and more demanding physically and mentally," Aycock said. "I'm playing against some of the best players in the world."
Like Woodard, Aycock spent a year playing overseas and is glad to see professional opportunities open up in the United States.
"I'm happy that we have these leagues," Aycock said. "To me, it's not worth it to play overseas. I'd rather be over here. The quality of players is top of the line."
Commentary
Bad calls, bad fans make winning tough
I have a bone to pick with the referees of the Kansas and Oklahoma State football game last Saturday, and with the so-called "fans" who were and were not in the game.
[Image of a person with short hair and light skin tone].

attendance.
First things first; the referees were terrible.
Football is a fast and difficult game to officiate. However, when they blow two calls critical to the outcome of the game, the officials are
Blown call No. 1: Oklahoma State linebacker Troy West, after intercepting an errant pass from Zac Wegner, clearly fumbled before crossing the goal line. The refs ruled it a touchdown.
Can you guess who recovered? You nailed it. Kansas.
not doing their job.
Blown call No. 2: Cowboys quarterback Tony Lindsay lost the ball when a Jayhawk defender spun him around causing him to fumble the ball forward.
However, the officials saw it as an incomplete pass.
Can you guess who recovered? We have a winner, Kansas.
Why not let the refs re-evaluate a call they may have made incorrectly?
When the video board is up next year, the referees, as well as the fans in attendance, will see their mistakes.
But, replay evaluation will never happen because a college football game is already four hours long and the NCAA doesn't want to make it five.
It wasn't entirely the referees fault. Part of the blame should be placed on the Jayhawks special teams.
Two muffed kickoff returns resulted in touchbacks. Seems
harmless, but the second muffed kickoff happened with 2:05 remaining in the game.
The hawks needed a good return to set up a game-winning drive. It also took 10 seconds off the clock.
In addition to those mistakes, a bad decision to not field a punt allowed a 40-yard punt to balloon into a 78-yard bomb. Instead of field position near midfield, the Jayhawk offense had to start at its own 11 yard line.
These are beginning-of-the-year mistakes, and I still believe the 'Hawks will go to a bowl this year, but a win this Saturday in Columbia is a must.
I have a new name for my pain, and it is fair-weather fans. Something Kansas has a surplus of.
Where was everyone Saturday?
There was absolutely no reason not to attend. Admission was free!
Embarrassing moment numero uno: The heat was unbearable, but it was nothing compared to the 120 degree temperatures the players felt on the field.
I'm really proud of the people who came and stayed the whole game.
However, the crowd looked so thin, a friend who worked for ABC said they chose to use a black backdrop to shoot the commentators before the game instead of the crowd.
Embarrassing moment numero dos: Jayhawk fans make a mass exodus; the sequel, took place during halftime.
It was a sequel to '95 when Nebraska routed the Jayhawks, approximately 3/4 of the stadium left midway through the third quarter of a nationally televised game, leaving only Cornhuskers fans in the stadium.
Now that I have no friends left,
I'll leave you with an additional two-cents worth: go to the games,
stay the entire game and get off your hands.

Team gains status as most expensive in U.S. history
Browns return to Ohio gridiron
CHICAGO — NFL owners don't hold a grudge against Alfred Lerner for his role in moving the Cleveland Browns to Baltimore.
The Associated Press
And why should they? Lerner's $530 million purchase of the new Brown on Tuesday restored football in Cleveland and made them a whole lot richer.
Despite helping Art Modell move the old Brown's to
Baltimore, Lerner was chosen to own Cleveland's expansion team when the NFL unanimously accented his $530 million offer.
The league gets $54 million for stadium costs, making the bottom line $476 million — still the most expensive sports team in U.S. history.
However, the price is considerably less than the $1 billion media tycoon Rupert Murdoch is set to pay for the famed English soccer club Manchester United.
The Brown's, who haven't won an NFL championship since 1964, easily became the highest-priced U.S. sports team, surpassing the $350 million Murdoch paid for the Los Angeles Dodgers this year. The price also surpassed the previous record of $140 million for an expansion team, set by Carolina and Jacksonville in 1993.
Lerner, 65, teamed with former San Francisco 49ers president Carmen Policy, will write a very large check as the final step in his catharsis in the eyes of Cleveland fans.
"I haven't done it and have no idea how it's going to feel," said Lerner, the richest of four bidders with a net worth of $2.5 billion. "If you ask me how it is to pay for a pair of shoes, that I know. When you're getting up to these kind of numbers, for everyone it's a unique experience."
NFL
Lerner, a 5 percent partner in
the old Browns, let Modell use his private jet to cut the deal that left Cleveland without a team after the 1995 season. He owns 90
percent of the expansion franchise, with Policy owning 10 percent and running football operations.
It will be a true test for Policy,
credited with building the 49ers'
dynasty under owner Eddie
DeBartolo Jr.
"Given some luck ... we're going to be able to adequately meet the challenge," Policy said. "We're going to be under the gun, but I think we're going to perform."
Added Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones: "It's an outstanding deal, both for the owner and the city of Cleveland."
At a news conference in Cleveland Tuesday night, Lerner said he intended to keep the brown, orange and white colors of the Brown's uniforms and, if possible, the same name for the stadium — Cleveland Municipal Stadium. He also said he had no regrets about the price.
"It was a free market, and you had serious bidders with capacity, and that's what it took to buy it," said Lerner, flanked by Policy and former Browns quarterback Bernie Kosar, an adviser in the Lerner-Policy bid.
Owners met for about five hours and took four ballots before Lerner and Policy eliminated Larry and Charles Dolan, who were teamed with Hall of Fame coach Don Shula and comedian Bill Cosby.
Larry Dolan, a Cleveland-area lawyer issued a statement congratulating Lerner. His brother Charles, chairman of Cablevision Systems Corp., said he hadn't spoken with Shula but that he did get a call from Cosby.
"He told me a couple of jokes," Dolan said. "He said, 'There's nothing you can do about it.' He was great. Of course, we're all disappointed."
Lerner, whose first job selling furniture paid him $75 a week, made millions as chairman of MBNA Credit Corp. He becomes the fourth owner in Brown's history, joining Arthur "Mickey" McBride, David Jones and Modell, who bought the team for $4 million in 1961.
Commissioner Paul Taglabile said a deadlock about Lerner and the Dolans was broken by Modell, who motioned for a unanimous vote. Modell said he did it for the good of the league. Lerner had the votes to win.
The league's seven-member expansion committee met for about 90 minutes before all the owners met and considered offers from Lerner, the Dolans and New York real-estate magnate Howard Milstein. They eliminated Cleveland Bart Wolstein, who was teamed with Hall of Famer Jim Brown, but wanted the league temporarily to own part of the team.
The committee unanimously endorsed the Lerner-Policy team, and the final vote among the 30 owners was unanimous with one abstention — Oakland's Al Davis.
"Al Lerner deserved it in every respect," Jones said. "Both his interest in Cleveland and how he conducted himself through this process. It's a shame that they both couldn't have had Cleveland."
Before Modell's motion, it was 21-7 in favor of Lerner with abstentions from Oakland and St. Louis.
Voting for the Dolans were Baltimore, the Jets, Cincinnati, Buffalo, Tampa Bay, Chicago and the Giants. All subsequently switched, with Davis abstaining — as is his custom.
"Right now, I'm thinking of Mr. Shula," Davis said. "I just thought he deserved tremendous consideration."
With Lerner's help, Modell moved the Browns to Baltimore and renamed the team the Ravens because he believed he couldn't work out a deal for a new stadium. Lerner's substantial bank
Dolan's bid was $500 million with the stadium money factored in, and Milstein's was substantially less, Tagliabue said.
"It was a free market, and you had serious bidders with capacity, and that's what it took to buy it."

account and his insistence that he was only a bystander in the move worked in his favor.
rhe had to show he was committed to being a member of the Cleveland Brown's." Jones said. "He did that."
Tagliabue said Modell spoke in favor of the Dolan group but not against Lerner.
"It was a very respectful, thoughtful, positive decision process," Tagliabue said.
After Modell and the Brown's departure in 1996 left some of football's most loyal fans without a team, the city of Cleveland struck a deal with the NFL that guaranteed a replacement team by 1999.
The NFL owners decided to make it an expansion team in February and gave the Browns a favorable stocking plan in July. The Browns get 30 veteran players from other teams and 14 extra draft picks, including the first overall next year.
The new Brown's begin play next season in a $280 million, football-only stadium on the same spot where old Cleveland Stadium stood. The new owner gets millions in revenue from luxury boxes and club seats, plus the sale of 41,000 personal-seat licenses.
Tagliabue said the Browns would get a full share from the league's $17.6 billion TV contract from their first season. Carolina and Jacksonville did not.
Milstein's elimination meant that former players Calvin Hill and Paul Warfield lost their bid to give the expansion team black representation in the ownership group.
Hill, father of NBA star Grant Hill, failed in his fourth bid to become part owner of a sports franchise. He would have run business operations for Milstein, while Warfield would have run football operations.

Soccer club sold for $1 billion
hefty purchase causes commotion
The Associated Press
LONDON — Rupert Murdoch will pay $1 billion for famed soccer club Manchester United in what would be the highest price for a sports team.
The offer was nearly double the amount paid by billionaire Alfred Lerner to buy the NFL's new Cleveland Browns, the costiest team transaction in U.S. sports. Lerner paid the league $300 million, including $44 million for stadium costs.
The board of Manchester United agreed yesterday to sell the team to Murdoch's BSkyB satellite television company. The sale must be approved by shareholders and the government.
If the deal goes through, Murdoch's media empire will own two of the most prized teams in sports. In March, he took control of baseball's Los Angeles Dodgers.
Los Angeles, Brooklyn
However, the price for Manchester United far outstripped the $350 million that Fox Sports, a division of Murdoch's News Corp., paid for the Dodgers in March — a record price for a baseball team.
Murdoch's purchase of the soccer team evoked a storm of protest from fans and some lawmakers. Many charged it would give the Australian-born tycoon a stranglehold on televising Premier League soccer. A fans club vowed to deal the.
"We've certainly not betrayed our supporters," said Martin Edwards, Manchester United chief executive, at a news conference. "We've secured a safe future for them."
Prime Minister Tony Blair's Labor
Party government reiterated that the takeover would be referred to the Office of Fair Trading.
The issue is sensitive for Blair. The Murdoch-owned Sun, Britain's biggest-selling daily newspaper, switched support from the Conservative Party to Labor at national elections last year, and Blair is vulnerable to charges of owing Murdoch a favor.
As well as concerns about a major broadcaster now owning a major soccer club, the criticism reflected strong emotional attachments to Manchester United.
Asked how many times Murdoch had visited Old Trafford, the club's stadium, BSkyB chief executive Martin Booth said: "It is not relevant whether Mr. Murdoch goes to the game or not."
He also denied BSkyB had struck the deal because its sole rights to
broadcast Premier League games expires in 2001.
"Murdoch wants to sit on one side of the table offering a price for televised games, then move round and sit on the other side for Manchester United, accepting or rejecting it," said Joe Ashton, a Labor lawmaker who is chairman of the all-party parliamentary group on soccer. "That can't be fair."
But rivals, invoking Manchester United's nickname, stoked the criticism.
The Sun, under a front-page headline "It's A Deal," and the other big British daily newspaper owned by Murdoch's News Corp., The Times of London, reported the takeover enthusiastically.
"Sold To The Red Devil," announced The Mirror, alongside a front-page picture of Murdoch with horns.
Iowa State-Iowa rivalry becomes legacy
Cyclones seek win against Hawkeyes after 15 defeats
The Associated Press
IOWA CITY, Iowa — Have hope, Cyclone fans. Iowa used to beat Wisconsin and Northwestern like a drum, too, until only recently.
The worm may have turned in those series. Wisconsin won 13-10 last year after not winning the previous 18 seasons. Northwestern has beaten Iowa three straight seasons but was 0-21 before that.
This Saturday, it is Iowa State's turn to stop the madness and start its own streak.
The Streak.
The Cyclones haven't beaten their in-state rival since a 19-7 victory in 1982. That's 15 straight games. That in itself should provide loads of incentive for the Cyclones, who were swamped 63-20 a year ago at Ames.
But incentive works both ways, too.
The Hawkeyes don't want to be remembered as the team that blew
IOWA STATE
WILLOWES
so many years," said senior defensive tackle Jared DeVries, of Aplington, Iowa.
Even to out-of-state Hawkeyes, the annual game is a biggie.
"It's special to me because we have a lot of guys on the team here from the state of Iowa. We know that this game means a lot to them, just like when we play Illinois, that game means a lot to me," said senior Eric Thippen of Dolton, III.
It is understandable that the seniors want to keep their record unblemished against the Cyclones. That attitude, season after season, keeps rubbing off on the youngsters.
Kahili Hill, who made his first start in last week's 38-0 win against Central Michigan, didn't know anything about the intense rivalry among players and fans when his family moved from Buffalo, N.Y., to Iowa City four years ago.
But after an indocrination by his teammates, the redshirt freshman
would like nothing better than to burn the Cyclones with a punt
5
return touchdown and a kick off
return touchdown, just as he did
against the Chippewas last weeke-
end.
"It's a big week. I never knew about the in-state rivalry until I got here, but I quickly learned they want to beat the Cyclones, and the Cyclones want to beat the Hawks," Hill said.
"Expectations are high around here. We don't want to lose and break the streak," he said.
Iowa coach Hayden Fry cannot be accused, publicly at least, of stoking the Hawkeyes' fire with bulletin board material and vile words about the Cyclones.
As far as anyone can tell, he is their biggest booster. Well, other than ISU President Martin Jischke, perhaps.
"I truly mean this, other than when Iowa State plays us, I hope and pray they win all their ball games," said Fry, whose first Iowa team in 1979 beat ISU 30-14 but then lost three straight before dominating the series.
Fry says his daughter even earned her doctorate in veterinary medicine at Iowa State.
"It kind of solidifies my feelings towards Iowa State. I have the greatest respect for those people," he said.
Iowa State has come close. In 1988, the Cyclones lost just 10.3. The next year, it was only 31-21 and then 45-35 in 1990.
In 1992, it was a 21-7 followed by a 31-28 setback in 1993.
The Hawkeyes have scored at least 27 points in each of the last five games, with last year's score marking the biggest margin in the 45-game series that began in 1894.
The Cyclones did win a century ago — 1895 and 1897 — to account for three of their wins in the overall 33-12 series advantage held by Iowa.
"It's not really that big a rivalry, but it's a big game," DeVries said. "A lot of fans make it bigger than it really is. It's just another game. We prepare for them all the same way. We want that 'W.'"
But what is the reason Iowa has been dominant for so long?
"I don't really know," DeVries said. "They always say the best team wins, right? The last 15 years, I guess we've been the better team."

Cyclone receiver adjusts to Division 1
AMES, Iowa — Running a pass route with Jack Tatum bearing down on him would be easier for Damien Groce than what he dealt with this week.

Instead of facing defensive backs, Groce was facing reporters.

College drew only 2 or so fans.
Before getting to Iowa State, the biggest crowd for one of his games was 6,000 in high school
But he played in front of 33,009 in his Cyclone debut at Jack Trice Stadium last Saturday. And this Saturday, 70,000 fans will fill Iowa's Kinnick Stadium when Groce and his teammates face the Hawkeyes on ESPN2.
After a bout with jitters in Iowa State's loss to TCU, Groce played well. He dropped a well-thrown pass from Todd Band-hauer in the first quarter and finished with five catches for 58 yards.
Iowa State's coaches noticed Groce while he was catching 47 passes for 785 yards and a school-record 12 touchdowns at San Bernardino Valley, which finished 9-2 last fall. He compiled 401 yards on punt returns, including an 88-yarder for a touchdown.
"We thought he was one of the better receivers out in California in the junior-college ranks," said Dan McCarney, Iowa State coach.
Three other San Bernardino Valley players have joined Groce at Iowa State: defensive back Javon Daniels, defensive lineman Robert Brannon and wide receiver Robert Brown. All three played against TCU, but Brannon saw the most action.
They came as a package.
"It was more of a group decision because we took all our trips together," Groce said. "We planned on going together regardless."
Pittsburgh, Illinois, San Diego State and Hawaii also recruited Groce, who said he and the others chose Iowa State because of the coaches, McCarney in particular.
"I could talk to him anytime I want to about anything," Groce said. "From the day we left, we said we've not to come here."
Now they'll try to help Iowa State break a 15-game losing streak to Iowa. In his short time in Ames, Groce has been able to sense the importance of playing the Hawkeyes.

"I know it's a big thing, Iowa," he said. "I'm excited just to play against them. I haven't had the privilege and the pleasure yet. I've been watching teams like this since I was little."
Wide receiver catches up with Wildcats
Burnett hopes to add more to K-State offense
The Associated Press
MANHATTAN, Kan., — When Kansas State opened its 1997 season, wide receiver Everett
Boulett was ready to replace Kevin Lockett, the Wildcats' all-time leading receiver who
Burnett was
After all, Burnett, a junior-college transfer from Kemper (Mo.) Military, earned a starting spot after dominating in K-State's 1997 spring game and impressing coaches with his athletic abilities. He even wore 83 on his jersey. Lockett's old number.
had moved on to the Kansas City Chiefs.
LAWRENCE
"I'm just trying to boost my confidence up from last year," Burnett said. "I came off a struggling season, and I'm just trying to get back on track and help my team in the most ways I can."
A year later, though, Burnett is recovering from a disappointing junior season and is trying to make a comeback.
Burnett stepped into a starting role last year but had problems catching the football. He had two drops at Nebraska in week four, followed by a dropped touchdown two weeks later against Texas A&M.
From there, he slid down the depth chart and was lost in the magic of the Wildcats' 11-1 season. He didn't play in the Fiesta Bowl, didn't make a catch in KState's final five games and finished the year with only seven receptions — one fewer than Lockett had in his final regular season game.
But after a strong offseason, Burnett enters No. 5 K-State's second game not only as a
starter but as the team's leading receiver as well. He caught four passes for 75 yards against Indiana State last Saturday, including the Wildcats' first completion of the season, a 39-yarder that set up their second score.
"This last game showed his effort, how he's been committed to making an improvement. I hope he keeps going and gets better each day," K-State quarterback Michael Bishop said. "This year is his last season, and I think he wants to continue to play football after this level, so he's making strides and he's getting better every day."
Burnett said his problems last year came from his mind, that football is 80 percent mental and 20 percent physical. Once he started dropping passes and losing confidence, everything fell apart, he said.
"I was so worried about dropping it instead of just going out there and doing the things I can do, the things I've been doing all my life — that's just catching the ball and making plays," he
said.
Last season, one of his goals was to improve his strength, which he did by pushing his squat total up to 700 pounds.
The added leg strength helped his explosion off the line and dropped his time in the 40-yard dash to 4.52 seconds. He also said the K-State coaches helped him learn to use his strength on the field, improving his blocking, tackle-breaking and effectiveness in bump-and-run coverage.
As for the dropped passes, he credits his family with helping him break that habit. Burnett was at an emotional low at the end of last season when he went home to St. Louis to spend some time with his family. He said he cleared his mind and came back focused in the spring.
"Everett has gotten a lot better. I think he's more focused on catching the ball than last year. Last year, I don't think he had the year he wanted to have," said Burnett's roommate, K-State free safety Lam Chap
"I came off a struggling season, and I'm just trying to get back on track and help my team in the most ways I can."

man. "But I think he's got it all straightened out. This is his senior year, and he wants to go out with a bang."
Burnett has shown he can catch the ball with his drop-free performance in week one. Now, he just needs to prove he's over his problems and ready to contribute consistently.
"Well, let's hope he is," Kansas State coach Bill Snyder said. "We'll find out as the season progresses."
Change is in the air for Solich's 'Huskers
Passing game increases power for Nebraska
The Associated Press
LINCOLN, Neb. — Nebraska has found a way to punish defenses that stack the line or key too much on the run, and
it's going to change the way you think about the Cornhuskers. It's Air
It's Air Solich.
"If vou

look at our team in our first two games, we've hurt people more through the air than on the ground," said coach Frank Solich. "Sooner or later, that's
going to mean something to somebody."
It was fourth-and-one Saturday at Alabama-Birmingham's 15-yard line, and the 'Huskers were poised to cap a typical Nebraska drive. The rushing attack had been pounding the defense.
Solich didn't hesitate. Kicker Kris Brown stayed on the sideline and Solich sent in the next play. As a sea of 75,921 fans stood and cheered, everyone surely thought to expect a fullback dive or a speedy back cutting unfield off the option?
Sorry, but these are not your father's Cornhuskers. Quarterback Eric Crouch tossed the ball into the end zone, where wide-open Sheldon Jackson made an easy catch.
Air Solich?
"People will generally try to stop the run when they play Nebraska. That's pretty much a given," Solich said.
In Solich's first season replacing retired coach Tom Osborne, the No. 4 Cornhuskers (2-0) are more diversified than last year, when they led the nation in
rushing at 392.6 yards per game.
"New coach,
new things."
said receiver
Shevin Wiggins.
Entering Saturday's game at California, Air Solich is averaging 190.5 yards
per game. Those aren't the numbers you'd expect at Florida or BYU but they're above Nebraska's average last season of 121 passing yards per game.
Meanwhile, the rushing average in Lincoln has dropped to
262. 5 yards per game, paltry by Nebraska standards. The result of this change is an offense that may be harder to defend.
"It makes opponents play us a lot differently," said receiver Kenny Cheatham. "They have to respect our routes. No longer will they be able to just stack eight men in the box and forget the pass."
The passing game has been evolving in recent years at Nebraska. Last year, Scott Frost became just the 10th quarterback in Division I-A history to rush and throw for more than 1,000 yards in the same season.
With Frost's graduation, the snaps are now taken by sophomore Bobby Newcombe and redshirt freshman Crouch — fleet-footed guys who make quick cuts, throw deep and firmly grasp the game plan.
"We can pass the ball well, we can run the ball well and we
"People will generally try to stop the run when they play Nebraska. That's pretty much a given."

have a great option game." Newcombe said. "In the past, Nebraska has mainly just been a running football team."
In the meantime, fans and opponents might need to rethink their perceptions about Nebraska's offense. The same goes for Crouch, who took a timeout before the touchdown on fourth-and-one to make sure he had the right call.
"I just wanted to make sure coach Solich really wanted the pass," Crouch said.

point last season, too.
SOUTH BEND, Ind. — Bob Davie keeps reminding himself that Notre Dame was 1-0 at this
season, too.
So the coach hasn't let the No. 10 Irish bask in the glow of their huge win Saturday

against No. 13 Michigan, not with a trip to Lansing, Mich.. on tap and a battered Michigan
State team waiting for them.
State team waiting for brent
And especially not after the
beating the Spartans gave Notre
Dame last year.
"Coach Davie, he reminded us about that, how they came in here and embarrassed us, whipped us," offensive tackle Luke Petitgut said Tuesday.
Davie said the biggest difference in the season for a team comes between the first and second games. Last year, Notre Dame edged Georgia Tech 17-6 in the home opener before Purdue came to town and defeated the Irish.
'That was followed by the Spartans' manhandling the Irish 23-7 in Notre Dame Stadium, holding them to 61 yards rushing. The Spartans' Sedrick Irvin and Marc Renaud both rushed for more than 100 yards.
Now Davie will see how the
Irish respond to beating Michigan decisively and traveling to Michigan State for a night game against the Spartans (0-2).
"If your attitude is right and your foundation is right, you should make improvements, and I certainly look for us to make improvements. We need to make improvements," Davie said.
On defense, that means shoring up a pass defense that surrendered 322 yards to Michigan. The Spartans have only 282 yards through the air in losses to Colorado State and Oregon. But Davie considers the Spartans a dangerous team.
"The bottom line is last year they beat us every way possible ... you get the tape out and you see it and you see they have the same players back," Davie said. "You understand the potential
of that football team."
Davie hopes to build on the success the Irish had against Michigan, especially in the running game. Autry Denson rushed for 162 yards against a Wolverine defense that returned nine starters from a team that ranked seventh in the country against the rush last year.
Now, he'll be going up against a team that held him to 59 yards on 15 carries.
Davie said Oregon's 307 yards rushing against Michigan State on Saturday wasn't a good gauge of how the Spartans would hold up against Notre Dame. He said Michigan State would match up much better against Notre Dame's power running attack than the Ducks' speed.
"It's going to be a physical football game this Saturday, and
"Coach Davie, he reminds us about how they came in here and embarrassed us, whipped us."

Notre Dame tackle
I'm impressed with Michigan State's defense," he said. "They have good players back, and they do have a good scheme."
The Irish also know beating Michigan has put the rest of the country on alert that Notre Dame football is back.
"They'll be ready," Petitgout said. "It'll be like the old days — you get the best from everybody you play."

McGwire's 62nd falls into history
ST.LOUIS—Even before his first swing in spring training, the questions started.
The Associated Press
Could the record be broken?
Would he be the one to do it?
Mark McGwire, the man who seemed destined for home-run history from the day he was born, answered them all Tuesday night.
Homer No. 62 was a low laser to left field, far from the monster
FRED BARNES
McGwire: May take a few days off during the 18 game.
moonshots he's been hitting all season. In fact, at 341 feet, it was his shortest homer of the year.
nizable record in sports, a mark that Roger Maris held for 37 years.
No matter.
Because the moment the ball barely cleared the wall, the St. Louis slugger had won the race to break the most recog-
I have been talking about this since January," McGwire said. "I can honestly say I did it."
Born two years to the day after Maris hit his 61st in 1961, McGwire's solo home run in the fourth inning off Chicago Cubs pitcher Steve Trachsel capped a chase that began with his grand slam on opening day.
Record hits home with Maris' widow
Though McGwire and the rest of the baseball world had been expecting the record-breaker any day, it still was overwhelming.
McGwire was so excited that he skipped past first base as he rounded the bag and had to return to touch it, pulled back by coach Dave McKav.
"I sort of missed one big thing—to touch first base," he said. "I hope I didn't act foolish, but this is history."
Technically, McGwire could've been called out because of Rule 7.09 (1), which prohibits coaches from reaching out to assist runners. Then again, that wasn't going to happen on this night.
Every Cubs infielder shook McGwire's hand on his trip home, and former St. Louis teammate Gary Gaetti hugged him, as did catcher Scott Servais. Halfway to the plate, McGwire pointed at the Chicago dugout in tribute and saluted the fans.
ST. LOUIS — Roger Maris' widow was hospitalized Tuesday after developing an irregular heartbeat for the second time this week.
Patricia Maris was listed in satisfactory condition at Barnes-Jewish Hospital in St. Louis and was released yesterday morning.
Her family brought her to the emergency room several hours before Tuesday night's Cubs- cardinals game in which Mark McGwire broke her husband's 37-year-old record of 61 home runs in a season.
"But it's a little crazy out there tonight, and we felt she just needed a nice quiet night."
"She's fine, medically," hospital spokesman Todd Cooper said.
Patricia Maris, 62, on Sunday flew to St. Louis from Gainesville, Fla., with her four sons and two daughters to watch McGwire. She was taken to the hospital before that game when she first developed an irregular heartbeat.
"I think it's just exhaustion," son Randy Maris said after his mother was hospitalized the first time. "The last three or four months, a lot has been going on with all this attention."
The Associated Press
McGwire was mobbed by his teammates at home plate as Cardinals relievers ran in from the bullpen, and he lifted his 10-year-old batboy son Matt high into the air. McGwire then ran into the seats to hug the family of Maris.
"I couldn't be happier for him," Roger Maris Jr. said.
Before the game, McGwire clutched the bat that Maris used to hit his 61st and rubbed it against his chest.
"Roger, I hope you're with me tonight." McGwire said.
Cubs right fielder Sammy Sosa, who has 58 home runs and also held Maris' bat, ran in from right field to hug McGwire as the sellout crowd of 43,688 roared.
None of the fans, however, wound up with the lucky ball. The souvenir, which had attracted offers of $1 million, instead went over the fence, but short of the stands, and was retrieved by grounds crew worker Tim Forneris.
Forerin, 22, picked it up and later gave it to McGwire in a postgame party on the field. McGwire also got a '62 red Corvette from the Cardinals in the postgame tribute ceremony, and he and his son took a slow victory drive around the field. Plus, there was a call from President Clinton.
"Right when it hit off the bat, I knew it was going out, and it went
right over the sign," Forneris said. "There was a bunch of groundcrew guys on the wall. But I was right on the edge, and I said, "That ball is mine."
The historic ball was en route today to the Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, N.Y., along with McGwire's bat, jersey, spikes and other memorabilia from the game.
The homer set off an 11-minute delay, baseball's biggest midgame celebration since Cal Ripken broke Lou Gehrig's consecutive games record in 1995. Near the end, McGwire grabbed a microphone and returned the compliments.
"To all my family, my son, the Cubs, Sammy Sosa. It's unbelievable." McGwire said. "Thank you, St. Louis."
Trachsel watched most of the celebration with umpires near him, and resumed pitching after a few warmups.
"I was hoping it wasn't going to be me," said Trachsel, baseball's newest trivia answer.
McGwire appeared anxious when he grounded out on a 3-0 pitch in the first inning, especially considering he hasn't homered on a 3-0 pitch all year. His homer came in his second at-bat on the first pitch, an 88 mph fastball at 8:18 p.m. CDT.
McGwire's homer was his 15th in 21 days, a surge that started after Sosa passed him — albeit for only
an hour or so — for the homer lead in late August. McGwire walked in his final two plate appearances in the Cardinals' 6-3 victory.
Big Mac, the only player ever to hit at least 50 homers in three straight years, started this season by connecting in his first four games. But while the race to break 61 is finished, the chase to become the 1998 homer champion is not done.
With the Cardinals out of contention, McGwire may take off a few days during the final 18 games; Sosa figures to play every day down the stretch with the Cubs still in the NL wild-card race. The loss kept them in a wild-card tie with the New York Mets.
Like Maris, McGwire broke the mark in an expansion season. But consider this stat: This year, home runs are being hit at a rate of 2.05 per game; last year, the average was also 2.05.
McGwire accomplished his feat in the Cardinals' 145th game, which includes one tie, while Maris' Yankees played 163 in 1961. Before Maris set his record, commissioner Ford Frick declared any record would carry a "distinctive mark" if it did not beat Babe Ruth's mark of 60 in 154 games.
That decision was reversed seven years ago, but it came six years after Maris died in 1985. Maris played his final game on this same Busch field for the Cardinals in the 1968 World Series.
Unlike Maris, McGwire didn't lose his hair in his pursuit of the record, even though the expectations and pressure began building way before the Cardinals' first workout in spring training.
worked his way into mid-June, McGwire complained that he felt like a "caged animal" because of all the attention his batting practice sessions were attracting. Later in the season, he was stung by an Associated Press report that he used androstenedione, an over-the-counter muscle booster that is legal in major league baseball, but banned by the NFL, NCAA and International Olympic Committee.
But on this special night, all of that seemed to be in the past for McGwire, along with the entire baseball world and beyond.
The whole country has been involved in this since the All-Star break," he said. "People have been saying it is bringing the country together. So be it."

Committee to discuss calendar
Fall break may not occur until year 2000 or later
By Jason Pearce
Kansan staff writer
A school calendar proposal that aims to give students more time to pursue academic endeavors outside of the University is being considered by a University Council committee today.
The Calendar Committee, led by Bill Tsutsui, will discuss the possibility of adding a fall break, an intersession period between the fall and spring semesters and a shorter finals period.
Last spring, University governance approved a new calendar that included a two-day fall break to begin in October 1999, but Provost David Shulenburger sent the proposal back to the committee. Shulenburger recommended an intersession period.
Carol Prentice, assistant to the provost,
said an intersession period — an extended
winter break — would give students the
opportunity to take short courses and to
study abroad during the winter break.
"It gives students the opportunity to gain more academic experience," Prentice said.
The committee would like to make room for these changes, but it must schedule 150 days of class per academic year with at least 10 days for finals, registrar Richard Morrell said.
"When we start putting in an intersession and fall and spring breaks, suddenly we run out of room on the calendar." Morrell said.
The committee will meet at 4 p.m. in 205 Strong Hall to address the recommendation.
Tsutsui, professor of Japanese history, said that if the calendar committee and the provost approved the new calendar, it would not go into effect until 2000 or 2001.
Pounding tradition
Tsutsui said that the first proposal would have started and ended both semesters on the same day of the week by scheduling stop day on a Friday with a five-day finals week beginning on the following Monday rather than a seven-day finals period.
"On paper, it would have been just perfect, and it would have helped people to plan their semesters better." "Sutsui said.
But he said that the administration thought the Kansas Board of Regents would not have approved it because of a general suspicion against a fall break.
"Many people thought the calendar was a done deal, and it seemed to make sense," Tsutsui said. "Sometimes ideas that seem really good may be politically a little touchy."
Now the committee will focus its efforts on keeping the original plan and adding the intersession period.
One concern about adding the intersession, he said, is that it could extend the school year through the end of May.
Tsuitsui said that the committee was not sure how long the intersession would last but that it could add an extra week of time between the semesters.
"A lot of faculty members don't want to go longer into the summer." Tsutsui said.
He also said that an intersession would force the spring semester to begin after Martin Luther King Jr. Day.
"If classes start after Martin Luther King Day, students may not observe the holiday as much." he said.
But Morrell said that the 1999, 2000 and 2001 spring semesters are scheduled to begin after the holiday.

A symbol of the rivalry between the University of Missouri and University of Kansas football teams, this war drum will be following the team to its game Saturday against the Tigers.

By Pallavi Agarwal Kansan staff writer
A war drum that echoes the oldest running football rivalry west of the Mississippi is bound for Columbia, Mo., for the Saturday Kansas-Missouri football game.
Fourteen members of the Student Alumni Association will accompany the two-foot high, one-and-a半 foot wide piece of history and tradition, said Kendall Dav. association president.
"We are the tradition keepers who are in charge of taking care of the drum," he said. "The drum is an effort by the Missouri alumni to revive the rivalry between the two teams and is presented before the start of the first football game of the season between the two teams."
The presentation of the war drum runs one year behind schedule. Because Kansas won the game last year, the KU representatives officially will be presented with the drum. If Kansas wins again, the drum will return to Lawrence.
Day said that not many KU students knew about the tradition and that the enthusiasm for it certainly was greater in the Missouri camp.
John Paris, Overland Park freshman, has been to a few KU-Missouri games but had not heard of the war-drum tradition.
Others such as Jason Jeffrief, Wellsville graduate student, have seen the war drum ceremony and enjoy the tradition.
Day said that the representatives for the alumni groups beat the drum during the game to cheer on their team and to annoy the other side.
The ceremony behind the war drum also helps members of the student alumni groups at the two universities bond, said Jennifer Mueller, students program coordinator of the alumni association. Before the game, the two teams have a tailgate party, she said.
The present war drum, which is a Taos Indian drum, has had two predecessors.
A gold football, which first kicked off the tradition, was lost sometime back, Day said. That was followed by an Osage Indian war drum, which now sits in the College Football Hall of Fame in South Bend, Indiana.
The present war drum, which has a picture of the Jayhawk on one side and the Missouri tiger on the other, may not have reached the high echelons of South Bend, but it was displayed last year in the Student Union Activities display case.

Man sexually battered by another man at lake
A 52-year-old Lawrence man filed a report of sexual battery Wednesday with the KU Public Safety Office.
The man was approached and groped by an unknown male between midnight and 1 a.m. Sept r.6, a police report said.
Sgt. Troy Maien of the Public Safety Office said the victim was fishing in Potter Lake when the incident occurred.
Mailen said that the Public Safety Office had no leads in the case yet but that the investigation was continuing.
Telephone harassments reported at GSP-Corbin
Three residents of Gertrude Sellars Pearson-Corbin Hall have filed complaints of telephone harassment with the KU Public Safety Office.
Two of the women are roommates. They said in a police report Sept. 10 that they had received threatening calls on numerous occasions between Aug. 25 and Sept. 9.
Another GSP-Corbin resident reported receiving harassing calls between Aug. 18 and Sept. 10, the Public Safety Office said.
Sgt. Troy Mailen said police were investigating the calls.
Waihen also said that in a residence-hall setting, it was not uncommon for a number of students to receive harassing calls from a single person.
"Because the phone numbers are in sequence, someone could call one number and the next in line," he said.
— By Kelli Raybern
"We had an incident before where an entire residence-hall floor received obscene calls from one individual."
Player punches opponent during boys' soccer match
A Free State High School student was arrested Tuesday on battery charges in connection with a fight during a soccer game at Free State High School.
"Emotions were running high, and he punched him in the face with a closed fist," Lawrence Police Sgt. George Wheeler said.
Police said a 17-year-old Free State student punched an Overland Park East High School student during the game.
The incident occurred at 5:45 p.m, and the suspect was ejected from the game.
The Overland stitches above and three
stitches below his right eye.
A referee from the game reported the battery to the Lawrence police, who arrested the suspect after the game.
Lawrence High student arrested in assault case
A 17-year-old Lawrence High School Student was arrested and charged with
aggravated battery yesterday in connection with a recent assault of another Lawrence High School student.
"It appears that it may be gang related," Lawrence Police Sgt. George Wheeler said.
Lawrence High School representatives would not comment.
The incident took place Sept. 2 at Lawrence High School, when a 16-year-old student was attacked by the 17-year-old student and an 18-year-old Lawrence resident, Lawrence police said.
"The victim was punched in the eye and fell to the black top," Wheeler said. Police said one of the attackers stomped on the student's head, leaving a shoe print.
After the attack, the victim went into a school building and punched a glass window. Police said that he probably struck the window because he was angry at being attacked.
The student received nine stitches above his right eye.
Topeka man suspected in Lawrence drive-by
A 19-year-old Topea resident was arrested early yesterday afternoon in connection with a recent drive-by shooting in Lawrence.
Michael Wycoff was changed yesterday with aggravated assault, criminal damage to property and criminal possession of a firearm stemming from a Sept. 4 drive-by shooting at the corner of Eighth and Vermont Streets, Lawrence police said.
The incident began when two Lawrence residents were driving and honked and waved at someone they thought they knew.
Two men, one thought by police to be Wycoff, were driving near the victims and fired a shot immediately following their honk and wave, police said.
The bullet went through the bumper of the victim's 1991 Honda Civic, causing about $500 in damage, police said. The slug later was found on the ground near the car.
Lawrence police Sgt. George Wheeler said they had looked for a red Pontiac Grand Am the suspects were thought to be driving.
Police located the car at 2:12 a.m. near the corner of 11th and Mississippi streets.
"The officer stopped the car and located a handgun under the driver seat. He then arrested Michael Wcoff. "Wheeler said."
Police are doing a ballistics investigation to determine if the slug found near the shooting matches Wycoff's gun.
Police still are looking for the second suspect.

Dow unable to rally, loses almost 250 points
Bargain hunters moved in just as the market neared the low point of last week's plunge, providing a late bounce. The Dow finished 249.48 points lower at 7,615.54 points, more than 1,700 points, or 18.4 percent, below the July 17 record of 9,337.97 points.

The drop, combined with Wednesday's 155-point loss, more than wiped out the record 380 points the Dow gained Tuesday. The rise came amid hopes the Federal Reserve may lend a hand in the battle against economic distress spreading around the world.
House hurries to release Starr's report on Clinton
It was the fifth time in just 10 sessions that the Dow had whipped more than 300 points in a day, including the 512- point plunge Aug. 31.
NEW YORK — The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell as much as 345
WASHINGTON — Thrust into the first presidential impeachment case since Watergate, the House is moving rapidly to release some of the information gathered by prosecutors against President Clinton.
A day after Independent Counsel Kenneth Starr surprised Congress and the White House by delivering 36 boxes of impeachment material to the Capitol with extraordinary security, lawmakers planned yesterday to finalize arrangements to make at least 445 pages public today. The information would be posted on the Internet.
Sources familiar with the report said it laid out evidence of alleged obstruction of justice, perjury and abuse of power by Clinton in his effort to conceal his affair with Monica Lewinsky — in the Paula Jones sexual harassment lawsuit against the president and the subsequent criminal investigation. The sources, who spoke only on condition of anonymity, were not more specific.
Clinton's personal attorney, David Kendall, immediately went before microphones Wednesday at the White House to insist, "There is no basis for impeachment."
But Starr spokesman Charles Bakaly told reporters the independent counsel had turned over "substantial and credible information that may constitute grounds for impeachment of the president of the United States."

Haskell campus to showcase art at annual market
By Heather Woodward
Special to the Kansan
Native American artists from around the country will gather on Haskell Indian Nations University Pow Wow Grounds this weekend.
The event, the annual Haskell Indian Art Market, will be open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. tomorrow and from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday, rain or shine. The Pow Wow Grounds are three blocks south of 23rd and Massachusetts streets.
"The thing that is so neat about the fair is that the artists can only bring items that are handmade by themselves. This discourages traders or people who just buy mass quantities of crafts from coming," said Kerry Girty, member of the Haskell board of directors.
There will be 150 artist booths at the market, which is sponsored by Haskell Indian Nations University, the university of Kansas and the Lawrence Indian Art Show. Admission and parking are free.
pik images A variety of Native American food will be available, including Indian tacos, fry bread and meat pies. Girty said.
The Kiowa Club and the Apache Crown Dancers, both Haskell Indian Nations University student groups, will demonstrate traditional Native American dances. The Kiowa Club will invite audience members to participate onstage.
The Apache Crown Dancers take a stricter approach to their performance and do not allow pictures to be taken during the dance, Girty said. A third group, Thunderbird Theater, will do a story-time drama that will include audience involvement.
Jeff Williams, Lawrence senior and art major, said, "I've been to the market before. It's very interesting just to see what other cultures are doing in terms of artwork. You can get ideas or see techniques that you might not learn at this University."
About,20,000 people came to the market last year. Girty said, but she did not know how many KU students had attended.
"I think it is important even if you are just remotely interested in art to come out to the market," she said. "There are so many different styles of Native American art, and a lot of people are not interested at all until they actually see it."

Recent bike accidents renew safety concerns
One rider remains in critical condition
By Chris Fickett Kansan staff writer
Two recent accidents involving bicycles and automobiles once again have brought attention to bicycle safety.
Kaye Long, co-owner of Cycle Works, 1601 W. 23rd St., and a member of the Lawrence Bicycle Advisory Committee, said miscommunication between drivers and cyclists needed to be eliminated.
"If we're aware of each other and watch out for each other, then we're going to see a lot less bicycle-related accidents in this town," she said.
Dustin Heath Barnes, Larned senior, and Andrei Marusov, Ukraine graduate student, were injured in separate bicycle accidents in the past month.
Barnes was hit Aug. 23 by a car at West Seventh and Florida streets when he ran a stop sign, Lawrence police said. He is listed in critical condition at University of Kansas Medical Center.
Marusov was struck Sept. 4 by a van after he ran a stop sign at 13th and Kentucky streets, Lawrence police said. He was discharged Tuesday from the Med Center.
Long said that it was unfortunate that the cyclists were injured but that they had not obeyed the law.
"I'm sorry they were hurt, but they were in the wrong," she said.
Stacey Lamer, Kansas City, Kan. senior and president of the KU Cycling Club, reacted similarly to the accidents.
"I feel really bad for the people who were hit by cars, but you have to follow the law," she said. "I think that cyclists don't follow the rules, and that has to change."
Long, and avid cyclist, said it was not always the cyclist's fault when bicycles and automobiles collide.
She said that drivers who attempted to turn from Lawrence Avenue onto Clinton Parkway often neglected the bicyclists and pedestrians on the recreation paths.
Lamer said she was hit by a car on West Sixth Street one year ago. She said she was riding east when an oncoming car turned left in front of her. Although she was wearing brightly-colored cycling gear, the driver still did not see
her, she said
"They're looking for other drivers," she said. "They're not trying to be mean. They just weren't looking for me. They just don't expect you to be there."
Long said that the Lawrence Bicycle Advisory Committee had been working with the city to increase bicycle-safety awareness.
Signs encouraging drivers and cyclists to share the road have been installed along Lawrence roads, and public service announcements have been played on local radio stations. A bicycle safety pamphlet will be distributed at bike shops and with Lawrence utility bills.
"I think that the bicycle advisory committee is taking positive steps toward promoting bicycle safety," Long said.
Phil Kelly, Chicago junior, said the share-the-road signs were not enough to increase bicycle safety.
"In order to have a good relationship between bicyclists and drivers, there needs to be bike lanes," he said.
Kelly said that cyclists who broke the law compromised bike safety.
"That's the problem," he said. "Most drivers are pretty considerate."

CLASSROOM ETIQUETTE

Neglect threatens 'Student Ghetto'
Most KU students are familiar with the area east of campus affectionately known as the "student ghetto." It is an area full of not-so-new housing developments with less-than-reliable maintenance and few modern amenities. But in a convenience-oriented society and booming economic climate, many students are looking for nicer and newer living arrangements.
The area between Louisiana and Vermont streets from Ninth to 19th streets is reminiscent of a Norman Rockwell painting, but it also is being abandoned.
Some students are looking for newer buildings and more conveniences, and the housing industry has responded. This school year, more students took to Sixth Street and Clinton Parkway, newer developments west of campus. This trend is progressing slowly year by year and could be damaging to the city and the residents of the University if it continues unchecked.
A study by Keller and Associates last year showed that there are increasing vacancies in older apartment complexes. These vacancies could become hazards if they remain vacant for long. Last month, an unoccupied apartment complex deemed a historical landmark in the 1600 block of Tennessee Street suffered a fire that police think was caused by arson. Had the complex been occupied, it may not have been such an easy target.
Landlords and tenants must maintain houses to preserve the KU housing tradition.
It also is possible that unoccupied buildings will not be given proper maintenance by their owners while they wait for residents, which would deepen the problem. Students may be unaware of existing problems in the houses where they move.
However, the buildings that are being lived in often are not being looked after either. One house on Kentucky Street, occupied by KU students, was condemned last month for having raw sewage in its basement.
Each year, a new set of roommates moves into these houses, likely adding a little bit of neglect to the amount of neglect already built up. It is a slow downward spiral that could cause a historic Lawrence neighborhood to become unlivable.
In the current economic climate, more students are looking for off-campus housing. Needing a bus or parking permit and using extra gas are not as dawning as they were six or seven years ago.
"It just seems that students today have cars attached to them," said Lou Ann Lee, Lawrence housing programs specialist.
Lee said apartments with more amenities are attracting more students.
"I think students are looking for quality, not the typical student environment," said Paulette Teague, manager of Tuckaway Apartments, 2600 W. Sixth St. "They don't want boxes and crates to live on anymore."
No one wants to see the "student ghetto" become a ghost town. Changes must be made by both landlords and tenants before the trend can be reversed.
Erinn R. Barcomb and Ronnie Wachter for the editorial board
Landlords will have to make improvements on their houses to keep current tenants and attract those who might be looking to live elsewhere. Tenants will have to take better care of their property to ensure that it is livable for the next residents. Without these changes, Lawrence's student gheto will be lost to future gheto residents.
Classroom etiquette is a necessity
Students who choose to come to class but have no desire to actively participate in their education should save themselves the trouble and stay home.
Students may come to class, but rather than paying attention and trying to learn, they cause disruptions. Talking through an entire class session, reading a newspaper, listening to headphones, or leaving early can be disruptive.
Although it may be a student's preregative to not pay attention, such behavior is disruptive to those trying to learn and to the instructor as well.
Article 2. Section B in the Code of Student Rights and Responsibilities
Disruptive students should just stay home rather than ruining class for others.
Bill of Rights states that "Students are free to pursue their education goals; appropriate opportunities for learning in the classroom and on the campus shall be provided by the University."
Inappropriate behavior by students clearly hinders the University in providing an atmosphere conducive to learning. In turn, this violates students' rights.
College professors should not have to act as disciplinarians. By the time students come to college, they should be mature enough to handle themselves in a classroom setting, or make the choice not to come at all. Some classes either allow a few absences during the semester or do not require attendance at all. In such cases, disruptive students should not feel forced to attend class.
People talking or leaving class is counterproductive to those trying to pay attention. Dealing with these situations is a test of concentration for dedicated students.
Kansan staff
Disruptive students need to make one of two choices: pay attention or stay at home.

Perspective
Beware of next election our rights may slip away
Take this column as an early warning for elections this November. There are politicians running who would love to take away citizens' freedom to enhance their
own power. Aided by almost admirable patience, they're willing to steal it one issue at a time.
Sadly, these officials often position themselves so that they appear to be defending consumers or — even better
PETER BROWN
Andrew Marino opinion @ kansan.com
— "the children" from the Big Bad Business that sells a "dangerous" product. In this election that product is tobacco, and judging from the smoky haze that dangles daily above Wesco Beach, we should have plenty of people on campus
The facts are that the situation is getting better, not worse. A University of Alabama study found that for the first time this century, the number of cancer deaths showed a sustained decline from 1990 to 1995. The researchers credited most of the drop to a reduction in cigarette smoking. Also, there are as many ex-smokers living in the U.S. today as there are smokers. These are not the signs of a problem needing to be solved.
Another common tactic used by money-seeking politicians is to concoct a crisis where none exists. Pointing to deaths, increasing health costs and the highly addictive nature of tobacco, these politicians scream that "something must be done." Artificially heightening the importance of an issue is common when elected officials are eager to raise and spend money. This issue is no different.
ready to defend a piece of their freedom.
In the 1970s, the non-elected members of the Consumer Product Safety Commission issued a decree requiring children's pajamas to be made from flame resistant, tight-fitting polyester rather than the cooler and more comfortable cotton. It wasn't until 1997 that kids across our great nation were relieved from their nights of scratchy sleeplessness. Members of the commission realized that sneaky, unconcerned parents were buying unofficial pajamas that looked and felt like the real thing but were labeled "not intended for sleep."
Most solutions proposed by Congress would probably make the "problem" worse anyway. Demonizing cigarettes more than they already are wouldn't help — it's not as if kids who smoke are out rounding up votes for sainthood. Making cigarettes more expensive would encourage theft and a larger black market.
Although anti-tobacco crusaders and those protesting against flammable Underroos may seem to be distant ideological cousins, they hold the same condescending assumptions about the average citizen. Both think that we are a bunch of bumbling, callous idiots. They think we need people to set rules for us to insure safety and health.
So where will all of the madness lead? Taxing foods according to their fat content would seem logical. Deaths related to diet number 300,000 a year and are growing, compared to 500,000 and decreasing for smoking. The point is that people must start to recognize threats to their freedom and start to fight those threats. Our right to eat Twinkies in the future could depend on it.
People in my age group sit idly by while these rules invariably whittle away our freedom and range of choice.
represent America's working people, it is the case A common argument to the tax is that those wily tobacco companies are just too darn smart for us or that we are too dumb to resist their mind-numbing magazine ads. Evidence shows, however, that tobacco advertising is largely ineffective at getting people to start smoking. The main effect of the ads is getting smokers to switch brands.
In an effort to curb teen smoking, the vast majority of the Democratic party led by the president, as well as a few maverick Republicans, have backed proposals to increase the federal tax on cigarettes by as much as $2 a pack. Democrats, who usually like to pretend they represent America's working folk, favor the tax.

Corporate contribution to schools appropriate
Lately, the role of corporate America in higher education has become a matter of contention.
On one side of the argument, direct financing of educational institutions by corporations is corrupting the undefiled pursuit of knowledge on college campuses.
David Katzman, chairman of American studies, who lectured recently about this matter at the University, goes so far as to say that the University is now "a commodity to be bought and sold." This seemed to be a favorite theme of Katzman's, who spent nearly an hour criticizing the involvement of corporations in education.

The only consistent argument he made was not really much of an argument. It was a complaint that professors don't have as much control over the decisions made at universities as they used to.
Because Chancellor Robert Hemenway did not seek faculty approval for the Coca-Cola Katzman said "the University sold out and is now a market to be exploited by corporations." In other words, if the University receives several million dollars to enhance the quality of student life without the express consent of the faculty, that's evil. That's some pretty harsh criticism for an agreement that doesn't do any more harm than to take Pepsi machines off campus.
In fact, I think that the Coca-Cola deal was beneficial to the University and the students. Millions of dollars from the contract will go toward student scholarships and campus events that the University could not afford to sponsor otherwise.
I've heard other people on campus complain about corporate dollars for education. Those arguments were no more compelling than Katzman's.
For example, I overheard a sarcastic comment about whether there might someday be a "Burger King Elementary School!" and what a farce that would be. Well, there already is such a school right here in Kansas. The school is Burger King Alcott and it's in Wichita. True, the name sounds strange, but I never heard any complaints about it. There would be a lot less money in Burger King Alcott's budget if they didn't receive financial support from Burger King. That money doesn't lead to academic corruption. It buys vital supplies, such as textbooks.
The situation at the University of Kansas and Burger King Albcott is somewhat different, but the general principal is the same. If either school did not have a use for the money, they wouldn't have made the deal with a corporation. The money that the University receives doesn't corruit it anymore than funds from the government.
a number of students are going to get scholarships from the Coca-Cola fund and if more organizations can get special event funding, who cares Pepsi won't be in vending machines. The mission of the University is not to provide a diversity of soft drinks for the students. The role of this University is to provide an education for the students, and corporate money from Coca-Cola has enhanced the education of many students at the University.
i support the right of any professor or student to make a big deal out of even the silliest issue, but corporate America is not trying to corrupt higher education. Corporations are trying to support higher education. But if universities want corporations to pick up the slack left behind by the federal government, these schools are going to have to accept that corporations have a right to take reasonable steps to protect their financial interests by entering into exclusive deals with educational institutions.

Feedback
KU shouldn't build recreational facility
A recent editorial said that it was surprising that three years ago, the proposal for a new recreational facility failed in a student referendum.
As someone who fought against this ill-conceived proposal for student recreation, I can tell you it is not surprising at all that it went down in flames. There is a lesson to be learned from the numbers and the experience.
Quite simply, the proposal was a bad one.
It was too expensive. It would cost $21.5 million and would have raised every student's recreation fees from $13
Most importantly, it was wasteful and a sham. Why build a new facility that would have had only two more basketball courts than Robinson currently has? Why spend $800,000 for new offices for Rec Services when the ones they have are just fine?
It was in a bad place. The center was to be stuck out on West Campus, near 23rd and Iowa streets.
to $90 per semester.
In all, I am incredulous at the way the debate surrounding improving recreation is being framed by Recreation Services. I am further disappointed that the editorial board has bought it — hook, line, and sinker.
Recreation facilities need to
be improved. However, this can be done without building a separate, new facility. Rather, why not build additional weight room and basketball facilities in the numerous fields near Robinson and continue to use what we have already built and paid for.
The facilities are not crumbling as Rec Services would have you believe — they are merely overcrowded and not open enough hours.
I hope that Senate and Recreation Services will learn from the past and not present students with another bum proposal that is doomed to failure.

Kansan staff writer
For University of Kansas student ambassadors, loving the University isn't just a personality trait, it's a job requirement.
Training sessions are wrapping up for the group of 85 ambassadors, including 37 new ambassadors, and the group is preparing for the arrival of interested high school students and other visitors.
Ambassadors are known for walking backwards and their ability to recite facts about almost anything on campus.
Nicole Hash, Louisburg sophmore, will complete her training for the ambassadors later this month. She said that she almost had finished her practice tours but that she still had to take a test on University facts.
"The facts are a little hard to learn," Hash said. "What sinks in are the stories, like Wescoe being built as a parking garage."
Although the group is meticulous about learning facts and teaching the ambassadors how to give the tours, Hash said she still had to master the art of walking across campus backwards.
"No one has told us yet how to walk backwards, but one of the returning ambassadors was tearing us because we have to walk backwards," Hash said. "He said we'd probably trip and fall."
Kim Beeler, faculty coordinator for the KU Ambassadors, said that walking wasn't the only requirement for ambassadors but that it helped.
"We want people with energy who are excited and have had good experiences at KU," Beeler said. "Ambassadors are a friendly face to incoming students. They are the first student contact and can make or break a first impression."
Other requirements include a 3.0 GPA, involvement in activities, an interview and a written application. The group accepted fewer than half of the 75 applications
they received.
"We are pretty selective, but we are proud of that," Beeler said. "I think this represents the best and brightest the University has to offer."
The ambassadors are responsible for giving one tour each week, participating in student panels, holding office hours and writing postcards to each of the prospective students in their tour groups, which translates into at least a two-hour commitment each week.
"I'm sure there will be times when it will be stressful to take time out of the day to do this." Hash said. "But I am really an upbeat kind of person, and I think it is a lot of fun."
Special responsibilities include participating on student panels for senior days and showing off the campus to special groups.
"We get a lot of groups with kids," Beeler said. "The sixth graders who come don't care about where the classes are, they want to know where the basketball players live."
A smaller version of today's Jayhawk welcoming committee began in 1980 with help from Paul Buscar and former Chancellor Gene Budig. The group has increased in size and responsibility since then,
Beeler said.
KU Ambassadors joined the ranks of the registered student organizations for the first time this year because they created an executive board with student leaders, Beeler said. Other changes for the group this year were special shirts, designed to make the ambassadors more recognizable during tours.
Although Beeler said the group was big enough to fill the University's needs, she said she hoped gradually to add more minority students.
"One of our goals is to increase the diversity among the ambassador group." Beeler said. "We want to include other groups because we want to represent the whole University."
For Hash, doing her job well is her primary goal. She said she was looking forward to her duties as an ambassador, despite the challenges that the visitors or the weather might hold.
"I'd rather give a tour when it's cold than when it's hot," Hash said. "Of course, I'll say that now and fall on the ice, but I think that campus is really pretty in the winter when it is covered in snow. Plus, that will be right in the middle of basketball season."

Jayhawk Music Festival to rock concert-goers at Clinton Lake
By Augustus Anthony
Diazza
Kansan staff writer
For the first time, the singing, dancing and crowd surfing of the Jayhawk music Festival will take place on a Saturday rather than a Sunday.
The gates at the fourth annual festival will open at 11 a.m. tomorrow at Clinton Lake State Park.
Jacki Becker, vice president of Pipeline productions, said there were several reasons why the day was changed.
"It's better for the guys in the fraternity to have the next day to clean up," Becker said.
Hecker said it also would be better for students who attend to have the next day to rest.
The parking system for this year's event also has changed.
That system will not be used tomorrow, Becker said.
Park workers have spent time clear-ing enough space for cars to be able to park close to the venue, Becker said.
Last year, a bus-shuttle system transported people from Free State High School to the event.
The cost of parking will be $5 per car, and the profits will be donated to Kansas Department of Parks and Wildlife.
closer you'll be," Becker said.
"The earlier you get there, the
Ticket prices also have increased from $17.50 to $18.50.
Becker said prices increased because there were six major-label touring acts on the bill.
Incipus will be the opening act Saturday and is scheduled to play from 12:20 to 1 p.m.
“It’s the finest talent we have ever had for Jayhawk Music Festival, therefore warranting the higher ticket prices,” Becker said.
The headline act is Everclear, and the group is scheduled to appear from 5:05 to 6:25 p.m. The last scheduled band is The Pharcyne, which will play from 6:45 to 8 p.m.

Booze-free greek party set for tonight
Planners fill event with prizes, sports
By Sarah Hale Kansan staff writer
In an effort to teach new fraternity and sorority members that partying and drinking do not always go hand in hand, an alternative party will be available at Robinson Center tonight.
Instead of brochures, lectures or programs on the negative effects of alcohol, organizers have planned games, food, prizes and an underlying message that there are other things to do on a Friday night.
Greeks Advocating Mature Management of Alcohol, an auxiliary group of the Interfraternal Council and Panhellenic Association, scheduled the event from 10 p.m. to 2 a.m. Students can enter only through Robinson's west entrance.
"It's important to do this at the beginning of the year because it sends a message to the new members," said Jennifer Kinney, assistant director for Greek programs, alcohol and risk management education. "We don't want them to think they're stuck. We want to show them other options."
Students can participate in basketball, volleyball and racquetball games, as well as rock climbing and swing dancing. Movies also will be
available for those who get tired, and the mascot Baby Jay will make an appearance.
Many groups around town donated prizes for the event. Kinney said that GAMMA had enough prizes to give out two per hour. Prizes include a television, a Terry Allen-autographed football and a Roy Williams-autographed basketball.
"Kids come to college, and it's a new environment," said Meghan Flannigan, co-chairwoman of GAMMA. "They think that the only thing to do, and the only way to have fun, is to go and drink. And while that is fun, this is an alternative telling them there is something else to do."
Although this is the first year for the

Kinney emphasized that the party would not bombard students with information about drinking too much.
"We want it to be a positive experience," she said.

Co-star gives Rounders sharp edge
Film examines gamblers' scene
Kansan movie critic
By Jeremy M. Doherty
Kansas movie critic
In sharp contrast to the louder-is-better mentality found in most movies today, the poker drama Rounders is a film that abounds in small moments of pleasure.
One character likes to chew on toothpicks before each round. Another nibbles Oreo cookies, which rattles the nerves of even the toughest of opponents. The aroma of flat beer and cheap cigars lingers in every scene.
With a story that's borrowed equally from The Hustler and Martin Scorsese's *Mean Streets*, Rounders unfolds slowly, gathering momentum. At its core, the movie asks some pertinent questions. Is it more important to follow your instincts or to do what will please others best? And what do we owe those friends who are on a fast-track to self-destruction?
These are issues faced by Mike McDermott (Matt Damon, in Good Will Hunting mode), a poker genius who, in the film's first scene, blows his law school tuition in a high-stakes game. Months later, he's sworn off the game and committed himself to his studies and his girlfriend (Gretchen Mol).
Worm (Edward Norton), Mike's former poker partner who's just been released from prison. Clad in a leather jacket and a varied assortment of paisley shirts, Worm reenters society with a $15,000 gambling debt on his head. Mike at first tries to steer clear of his high-living buddy, but the thrill of the game draws him back to the tables.
Trouble arrives in the form of
The photogenic Damon is his usual watchable self, but it's the dynamic Norton who propels Rounders. As Worm, the young actor seems to channel the look-how-fast-i can-talk energy of James Woods. This is definitely a character who deserved his own movie.
The supporting cast is a film lover's dream. John Turturro has some nice

scenes as a semi-retired poker legend who tries to act as a voice of wisdom to Mike. And John Malkovich steals his few moments as a card shark linked to the Russian mafia.
There's not much tension in Rounders, and some will accuse director John Dahl of making an undramatic picture. But Dahl is more concerned with how gamblers talk, play and swindle each other on and off the table. Who those who can latch onto the movie's odd rhythm will be delighted.
Simon Birch lacks substance
Bv Jeremy M. Doherty
Kansan movie critic
Like the 1996 Robin Williams vehicle, Jack, Simon Birch is about the social trials and prejudices faced by children with disabilities. And like that movie, this new flick does not possess the courage to say anything truly meaningful.
As it is with so many movies aimed at kids and their parents, Simon Birch wants to make us laugh and cry.
The film is suggested by John Irving's bestselling novel "A Prayer for Owen Meany," and writer/director Mark Steven Johnson has admitted in press materials to taking away much of the substance from his source.
Alas, it succeeds only in hurling vast quantities of syruvym schmaltz at the audience.
And how. Irving's book touched on the Vietnam War, religion's fading influence and political hypocrisy.

What remains focuses on the friendship of two 12-year-olds, Joe (Joseph Mazzelle) and Simon ( Ian Michael Smith). The former was born out of wedlock, and Simon is afflicted with dwarfism. The pair is viewed as an aberration in the tightly knit, God-fearing town of Gravestown, Maine.
cars and R&B tunes, but that's it.
Johnson begins his film in the present day as a grown-up Joe (Jim Carrey), looks back fondly on the events of that year. This prologue scene also serves to give away key plot points, such as the death of Joe's mother and the film's ending. Not surprisingly, that move effectively robs Simon Burry of any tension.

Johnson's attempts at drama here are as obvious as they are shallow. He relies on sugary
piano music to accent what should be poignant scenes, and any moment that threatens to create real drama is ruined by badly pop songs.
Play mirrors today's struggle
The few tolerable moments are provided by Ashley Judd as Joe's loving mother. For some reason, Johnson decides to kill her off in the first hour, and the rest is one overdrawn sitcom gag and moral message after another.
Intolerance seen in author's life
By Mariana Paiva
Kansan staff writer
Parallels can be traced between a 19th-Century author and the latest scandals involving the White House.
This is one of the issues that Paul Lim, assistant professor of English, said members of the English Alternative Theatre wanted to show the public tonight in their performance of "Gross Indecency — the three trials of Oscar Wilde."
"There are parallels between the way the legal system went after our own president and Oscar Wilde for things they did in their private life," said Lim, director of the group. "The play raises issues that haven't been resolved after 100 years."
The off Broadway show, written by Moises Kaufman, is based on the real story of Oscar Wilde's relationship with a young aristocrat and the three courtroom battles that convicted Wilde of gross
The play begins at 8 p.m. tonight at Swarthout auditorium in Murphy Hall. Admission is free.
Moreover, it is a piece that talks about the Victorian society's intolerance and persecution to Wilde's art, ideas and sexual orientation.
The cast is composed of faculty members, students and Lawrence residents, Lim said. Tonight's performance is only a staged reading version of the play.
Charles Whitman, Lawrence resident, plays Oscar Wilde tonight.
indecency.
He said he learned more about Wilde's life when he interpreted Frank Harris, Wilde's friend, in a production written by Lim.
"A staged reading means that we meet only five or six times to practice, and the actors can carry their scripts on stage," Lim said. "It is a quick way to present a play to an audience."
"When I saw this play in New York last summer, it suddenly occurred to me that this is a wonderful way to introduce people in Lawrence the life and work of Oscar Wilde," Lim said.
Whitman said that the performance had a historical context because besides including parts of the trial documents, it showed how the newspapers of the time treated the case.
student groups that want to participate in the project must register with the United Way. Then the groups are matched with project ideas offered by different volunteer agencies, said Wendy Marshall, the Day of Caring coordinator.
The event will begin at 1 p.m. with an award presentation at the Lawrence High School Auditorium. Volunteers then will fan out into different parts of the city from 2 to 5 p.m. It will end with a cookout on the northeast lawn of Lawrence High School.

Last year's Day of Caring had 850 volunteers, 80 percent of whom were KU students, provide services for more than 80 projects, said Cynthia Muckey, chairwoman of the event.

Day of Caring is organized by the United Way of Douglas County and kicks off its fund-raising campaign for the year.
Many of the participating students belong to student living groups such as sororities, fraternities and scholarship halls, Muckey said. Although groups are participating, individuals are welcome to attend the event.
Sunday is also the beginning of the Rock Chalk Revue community service campaign. Several campus living groups compete with each other throughout the year for community service hours, and the event culminates

Common projects for Day of Caring include yard painting, massmailing of letters, cleaning toys, cutting down trees and cleaning parks, she said.
Some students who have participated in the event said they enjoyed helping others and making new friends.
Mark Bradshaw, community service chairman for the All-Scholarship Hall Council, said that several dozen students from scholarship halls would be participating in the event.
Day of Caring is the largest volunteer project that all the scholarship hallst undertake together, he said.
Bradshaw, who participated in the event last year, said Day of Caring was fun because he was able to meet new residents of his hall.
"It was an extremely hot day, but in the end ... we enjoyed it," he said.

'Hawks to battle Tigers in storied border war

Kansan sportswriter
"Rivalry games are what college football is all about," Kansas football coach Terry Allen said during Wednesday's press conference.
Few rivalry games this season will hold as much suspense, excitement and revenge as tomorrow's Kansas-Missouri match up.
After the Jayhawk's 15-7 victory last season over the Tigers, Missouri wants revenge so bad they can taste it.
"They caused us a lot of heartbreak last year, and we've never forgotten that," Mrs. coach Larry Smith said. "Kansas is a much better football team than a year ago when we played them, and they beat us."
Indeed, the Jayhawks stopped the Tigers dead in their tracks.
In the wining seconds of the fourth quarter, with Missouri on the Kansas 10-yard-line, Kansas linebacker Ron Warner sacked Missouri quarterback Corby Jones, causing a fumble that ended the game.
But that was then, and tomorrow the 'Hawks travel to Columbia, Mo., to face a Tiger team brimming with retaliation.
"I think Missouri had an outstanding season a year ago," Allen said. "Probably if you look back, the only blench on that season was the loss to Kansas. So, I'm sure that this is a huge football game for them, but this is a huge football game for us, also."
For those players who joined the Kansas ranks from Missouri, this is the game of the season in their minds as well.
Senior tight end Brian Gray grew up in Liberty. Mo, where the rivalry still thrives.
"Our next-door neighbor flies a big, yellow Missouri flag every game we play, so my parents decided to go out and get a big KU flag." Gray said. "It's kind of a little bit of a rivalry amongst our friends, but it's a friendly rivalry. And it's always good to go back and be able to say we pulled this one out, we got this year."
But Missouri is determined to keep Gray from saving that again.
Missouri tailback Devin West said signs hung around the athletic building reminded the Tigers of last year's loss.
"I pulled up to the building on Monday and saw the signs." West said. "Then I walked in the building and saw the 15-7 signs everywhere. So Coach is reminding us of what happened last year, but I really don't think we need the reminding. We remember."
Perhaps the loss hurt so much because it came from the Jayhawks, their nemesis in the oldest border war west of the Mississippi.
For junior defensive back Chad Coellner, it's K-State because Coellner is a native Kansan. For Gray, it's Missouri.
Butamong Kansas players, naming the big gerr rival — K-State or Missouri — is a toss-up.
Allen understands the dilemma.
"Obviously, we're still going through the learning curve as far as who's Kansas' biggest rival," Allen said. "Is it Missouri or is it Kansas State? I think you might draw a line, an age line. The older perceive it as Missouri, the younger people perceive it as Kansas State.
"But I know one thing. The University of Kansas is Missouri's biggest rival, and they're probably having a party over there right now waiting for the arrival of the Jayhawks."

Commentary
Kansas vs. Missouri: the rivalry continues
Jayhawks will beat the Pussycats again
Why do I hate the University of Missouri?
I know it's not the people. My mom's from Webster Groves, near St. Louis, and at least one of my uncles graduated from Mizzou.
It's not the dialect that changes an "i" to an a." My best friend from Kansas, Michael Weishaar, is a Liberty native and does the same thing.
And it's not the political history. Quantrill is dead; Lawrence was rebuilt long ago and far above the golden valley, glorious to view, stands our noble alma mater, towering toward the blue.
It's not even desperation. We have in-state
nemesis Kansas State (funny how all our rivals are Pussy-cats) to goad us into acts of KU fervor.
Matt Friedrichs
But the proximity of the Universities of Kansas and Missouri, with Kansas City straddling the state line, has led to a great border rivalry — one with more than a century of sporting contests
One has only to look at the all-time record to see the close competition in football between two schools separated only by a few hours on Interstate 70. The Tigers lead the series by one, 49-48, but the Jayhawks will even the record tomorrow.
Any Kansas vs. Missouri game is much like a match-up between the Chiefs and the Raiders. The good guys in red (and blue) take on the bad guys in black (and gold).
The nature of rivalries, Jayhawks against Tigers in this feud, is almost cartoonish.
One of my friends, when I asked him about the rivalry, put it in words that even Homer Simpson would understand.
"My father hated Missouri, and my father's father hated them," my friend said.
Another KU alumnus, who will remain anonymous to protect his Missouri citizenship, complained that Missouri fans have no aspirations. In his opinion, the success of a Missouri season is based solely on a win against the Jayhawks with no thought given to actual records or postseason play.
You can debate the merits of his argument, but there is no disputing the line drawn in many offices this weekend and the ugly chores that will result from bets between co-workers flying different colors.
It's like the eternal and bitter conflict between cats and dogs, or in this case, cats and birds.
Sylvester takes on Tweety. The cute, yellow bird, just like the Jayhawks, always beats the black-and-white cat, who is a tiger in his own mind but in no other way.
The game will be hard-fought with big hits, big plays and lots of excitement.
Missouri has the experience of a firstweek win against Bowling Green, memories of last season's Holiday Bowl and a thirst for more.
Kansas brings experience from a close loss to one of Big 12's best teams, Oklahoma State, a more aggressive and exciting offense and experience stopping an athletic quarterback. Tony Lindsay.
Anyone who expects a repeat of last year's 15-7 Kansas win will be surprised. Quarterback Zac Wegner and the Jayhawks' offense are much improved, and Tiger quarterback Corby Jones has shown how athletic he can be.
But quality improvements come from playing quality opponents. The Jayhawks will avoid mistakes and big plays tomorrow and will give the Tigers a taste of Big 12 in Missouri's conference opener.
You probably won't hear it in the locker rooms after tomorrow's 85-17 Kansas win, but Jayhawks everywhere will not be surprised by our consecutive wins against the Tigers.
And as we discuss what happened to the vaunted Missouri team, you just might hear, "tot I taw a puddy tat."

Tigers are superior to the Chickenhawks
Last weekend, I had to drive though Kansas on my way home from Colorado.
My mind was starting to wander. After all, I hadn't seen anything for hours besides fields of corn and a few nervous sheep.
I began to think about the upcoming football season, and like any Tiger fan, I started to get excited because I knew the Chickenhawks would be coming to Columbia soon.
The rivalry between Missouri and Kansas is the oldest of its kind west of the Mississippi.
The hatred between the two schools goes back to a conflict in the mid-1800s, and the debate about Kansas' admission
to the Union. After some initial skirmishes, so-called J a y h a w k e r s decided to help themselves to anything in Missouri, prompting Gen. Hallek to inform President Lincoln
M
that the Jayhawkers were little more than thieves and murderers.
(if you count Ryan Robertson's defection, it seems little has changed.)
I started to chuckle to myself as I thought of the imaginary bird that Kansas uses as a mascot, named after those first "Jayhawkers."
But my mind snapped back to reality as I thought I saw a tree on the horizon. It was only a telephone pole, so I began to davdream again.
I tried to think of some of the good things about Kansas. After all, every one and every thing must have some positive quality, however minute.
As I recall from a history class, Kansas was the birthplace of several astronauts. Of course, if I were from Kansas, I also would want to get as far away as possible.
I was beginning to get drowsy, so I thought I should pull over for a while. After a few miles, I saw the exit for Lawrence and pulled off for a break.
I happened upon a recent Kansas graduate, and we began to have a nice conversation. As we were conversing, it came up that I attended Missouri, and we started to discuss the rivalry between the two schools and the upcoming football game.
He smiled, exposing his pearly white tooth and started to babble about his alma mater.
"Oh, me and all my kin grill-Iated from over thar," he said. "Wez all gonnake hook our trailers up to them that trucks and be getting to Co-jumba far the game."
I had to interrupt him at that point to yell at the four Kansas students laying sod outside: "Green side up!"
Anyway, as the conversation continued, I started to see some parallels between Kansas and Missouri.
■ Missouri cheerleaders date Missouri football players; Kansas cheerleaders are football players.
Missouri fans show up to games in force to cheer; Kansas fans show up to games and are forced to cheer.
MU graduates pay for pizza; Kansas graduates deliver pizza.
Devin West had 125 rushing yards last week; Kansas had less than 100 yards rushing last week.
Missouri has a successful medical school; Kansas has certified 7,000 firefighters in the last 10 years.
Missouri invented homecoming; Kansas can't get people to come back.
I had to get going, so I told him to enjoy the game. I even said that maybe when the Tigers' Lair did its card stunts that the Antlers would read them out loud since none of the Kansas fans could read.
He thanked me, gave me my change and said, "Please pull to the next window and come again."

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday
You're under pressure from work and under criticism from a partner, but don't worry. You're being forced to get your act together. Choose a talent to develop in September. Change your home base in December. Share your dreams, and watch love grow through January. Accept a new assignment in February. Let another support you in March, and by May, you'll know what to do next.
Aries: Today is a 6.
Something you're learning now will be useful later. It's upsetting your routine today, but it's necessary. You need to know what's going on before you head off in the wrong direction. You don't have to spend much time at it.
Taurus: Today is a 6.
Wrap up old business today, but be cautious about starting new projects. You're more apt to find what you want at a good price then. Put your finances in order this evening. It's important to know what you've got, so you know how much you can spend.
Gemini: Today is a 4.
The sun is in Virgo, and Virgo and Gemini are squared to each other. You teach them to be more spontaneous; they teach you to be better organized. You teach them to try new things; they teach you to establish routines that work. The combination produces great results, so relax.
Cancer: Today is a 6.
Conditions are unsettled today. Somebody wants some things from you, but it's not clear what. Unfortunately, this person is getting worked into a frenzy. Hopefully, you can figure out what's required quickly. Calm everybody down. Cookies and milk might do the trick.
Leo: Today is a 6.
You'll have more time for playing with friends today.
Talk to them about what's been going on, but don't give them all the details. Hold your cards close to the vest. Be friendly, but don't let everybody know what you're up to.
Virgo: Today is a 5.
Recent changes are causing unrest. People aren't sure what they should be doing, and they're not doing much of anything. An older person seems to be learning on you. You might think he or she is asking too much, and that could be true. Rise to the challenge. You're much more capable than you think.
Libra: Today is a 6.
The moon has gone into Gemini, making it a little easier for you to check things off your lists. You're able to communicate better than normal, and today that's important. There are some misunderstandings. You're one of the people whose job it is to clear those up, and today you'll be busy.
Scorpio; Today is a 5.
The sun's s in Virgo, and the moon's in Gemini. It's a com-
bination that often causes change. This is your努府-
nity to push things in the direction you want. If you don't
have enough resources, ask for what you need.
Conditions are in a state of flux. You might even slip something through that previously was rejected. There's a lot of controversy going on, and everybody's in the mood to argue. But your chances for success are good.
Sagittarius: Today is a 5.
Capricorn: Today is a 6.
You're working hard, but you aren't seeing results. The job is more complicated than you expected, but don't get stressed. Just keep plugging away. Be willing to make modifications in your original plans.
Aaarius: Today is a 5.
In some ways, you're feeling better. In other ways, you're running into more problems. Together, you will solve more-complicated puzzles than you could by yourself. Avoid an argument. Gather more information. You can make the big decision next week.
Pisces: Today is a 5.
C
You finished your rough outline yesterday, or you should have. If not, do that first. There will still be changes to make before you get the whole process to run smoothly, but that's OK. If you anticipate the glitches, you won't be upset when they happen. Think of yourself as a bug collector.

Texas basketball player fails to make the grade
"We are disappointed that Vohn will not be able to contribute in games for us this year," Barnes said. "He will make us a better team by being able to practice with us."
Hunter will have three years of eligibility remaining.
Texas coach Rick Barnes made the announcement yesterday. Hunter will be allowed to practice with the team, but he will not be allowed to travel or play in games this season.
AUSTIN, Texas — Vohn Hunter, University of Texas incoming freshman guard, has enrolled in classes as a partial qualifier. That means he didn't meet all of the academic requirements needed to be eligible this year.
"Hopefully, he can use this year to get a head start in the classroom, work on his strength and conditioning and improve his game."
The Associated Press
Hunter averaged 18.6 points and five rebounds per game in his senior year at St. Raymond's High School in New York City while leading the Ravens to the New York Catholic High School Athletic Association quarterfinals.
Hunter's absence from the team this year leaves the Longhorns in dire need of guards. Two Texas guards, Anthony Goode and Bernard Smith, have transferred to other schools.

Kansas volleyball hopes to extend winning streak
By Laura Bokenkroger
Kansan sportswriter
The biggest challenge of the season awaits the Kansas volleyball team at the Doubletree Guest Suites Classic in Indianapolis this weekend.
The 5-Jayhawks will try to tie the team record (8-8 set in 1990) for consecutive matches won. Butler University is the host of the tournament.
Kansas coach Ray Bechard said that the competition at the Doubletree Guest Suites Classic would be the toughest the Jayhawks had faced this season.
Butler University has been in the NCAA Tournament for the last two years, and Kentucky always has a strong program. he said.
But the Jayhawks are wellprepared for the challenge.
They have won five games, more than half of the nine games they won all of last season. Kansas players said the momentum had provided them with new confidence
PETER H. MALCHEM
"Our energy
Bechard: Hopes the volleyball team will stay focused.
level is much higher than last year," said outside hitter Nancy Bell. "We go into games expecting to win."
the difference is in the determination, she said.
The Jayhawks' confidence remains steady although their opponents only will get tougher as the season progresses.
"Our goal at this point is to improve," Bechard said. "We are focusing on ourselves right now, managing ourselves and doing the things we need to do to get better."
Those things include making the defensive changes in posture to enable digging more balls and making better passes.
"Our secondary line of defense is an area where we need to

improve," Bechard said. "The goals we set for digs per game weren't realized Tuesday in Wichita, and it wasn't a pretty win."
Bernard said his team already has exceeded the expectations of some critics but that it wasn't enough.
Outside hitter Moira Donovan said that they weren't thinking about the strengths of other teams. They were just focusing on their own positives.
"We're all just excited," Donovan said. "You can feel it on the floor. We're competing with teams that are tougher than they were last year, and we've haven't let down." Kansas will play Butler University at 7 o'clock in the both hands.
Butler, who leads the series
against the Jay hawks 2-1, has struggled this season. The team has lost all three of its m a t c h e s , including two to Top 20 teams: Wisconsin and Arkansas.
Peggy Foster
Kansas will meet Kentucky tomorrow for the first time. The Wildcats are 3-1 this season with wins against the University of Alabama-Birmingham, Morehead State and Central Florida.
Donovan: Says the team is excited about this season.
The Jayhawks play Eastern Michigan at 5 p.m. tomorrow. Eastern Michigan has yet to win a game this season, losing to Michigan State, University of Pittsburgh and Central Michigan.

PRINCIPLES of SOUND RETIREMENT INVESTING
We make low expenses a top priority.
All financial companies charge operating fees and expenses — some more than others. Of course, the lower the expenses you pay, the better. That way, more of your money goes where it should — towards building a comfortable future.
As the largest retirement system in the world' a nonprofit company focused exclusively on the financial needs of the educational and research communities our expenses are among the lowest in the insurance and mutual fund industries?
In fact, TIAA-CREF's 0.31% average fund expenses are less than half of the expense charges of comparable funds? It's why Morningstar—one of the nation's leading sources of annuity and mutual fund information—says, "At that level [TIAA-CREF] is cheaper than any other
RECENTLY, MORNINGSTAR CALLED US CHEAP. IT'S NOT EVERY DAY YOU GET A COMPLIMENT LIKE THAT.
At TIAA-CREF, we believe people would like to spend more in retirement, not on their retirement company. Today, over two million people count on that approach to help them build a comfortable and secure future. So can you. To find out more, call us at 1800 842-2776. We'd consider it a compliment.
Of course, expenses are only one factor to consider when you make an investment decision Morningstar also noted our commitment to "consumer education, service" and "solid investment performance." Because that can make a difference in the long run, too.

Soccer team ready to rumble with Iowa
By Brad Hallier
Kansan sportswrite
It was only one win, but what an important win it was.
After earning its biggest victory ever, a 1-0 win against archrival the Missouri Tigers, the Kansas women's soccer team is trying to avoid an emotional letdown.
The Jayhawks want to continue their winning ways at 3 p.m, today against the Iowa Hawkeyes (2-0) in Iowa City.
"It was a historic victory, the first time in the program we've beaten Missouri," Coach Dan Magner said. "There is a possibility of a let-down. I hope that our team is mature enough to show that they can focus on one game at a time. I think they showed that in letting go of the Miami losses to focus on Missouri. We will need to be able to do the same in letting the Missouri game go and focusing on the Iowa contest."
The Jayhawks are meeting the Hawkeyes for only the second time ever. Last year, the Jayhawks benefited from an overtime goal and knocked off the Hawkeyes 3-2. Magner said Kansas played the Hawkeyes in two spring games and that each team won a game 1-0.
"We will play Iowa very similar to Missouri," he said. " Iowa aligns themselves with three forwards like Missouri."
Also similar to the Tigers, the Hawkeyes enter the game without having given up a goal all season. In Iowa's victories against Tulane and DePaul, Magner said the Hawkeyes did not even give up many shots.
"I anticipate a close game," he said. "It will take total team commitment, like against Missouri, and now we need to show that on the road."
Senior defender Sarah Korpi agreed.
"We need to try to get everyone to play together like against Missouri." Korpi said. "Iowa is a good team, and we have our work cut out for us."
Freshman midfielder Natalie Hoogveld said that to beat Iowa, they would need to get off to a good start. That wasn't the case in the Miami and Florida International

contests. In both games, the Jayhawks fell behind early.
"I think it's important to get off to a good start, like against Missouri," she said. "We needed that win to find our focus, and that is important to get to the (Big 12 Conference) tournament."
The Jayhawks will return home Sunday to square off against Central Missouri State (2-1), an NCAA Division II team.
"We are doing research on Central Missouri," Magner said. "We played them in an indoor tournament last winter and tied. They will be sky-high for this contest, and we need to come out and be ready to play."
The Jennies boast two outstanding foreign players, senior forwards Sinead Cullinan, from Ireland, and Susan Noel, from Trinidad and Tobago. Noel is a member of Trinidad's national team.
Magner said that when they played Central Missouri in the indoor tournament, he was impressed with the play of Noel and Cullinan.
"They showed their national team experience," he said. "They were very composed on the ball and controlled the tempo of the game."
Magner said that he would continue to use the starting lineup he used against the Tigers and that he would continue to use a 4-4-2 (four defenders, four mid-fielders, two forwards) formation.
"The starters against Missouri worked as a cohesive unit, and the players that subbed in did well for themselves," he said.

Templin Hall dedicates floor in remembrance
By Carolyn Mollett Kansan staff writer
The sixth floor of Templin Hall became Young House Saturday when it was dedicated to J. Michael Young, a former KU professor who died in 1995 of cancer at the age of 51.
Young's family, KU faculty and administration, former students and the residents of Young
house gathered in Nunemaker Hall, home to the Honors Program, to remember Young at the dedication ceremony.
Young House is the honors floor of Temple Hall. Young was director of the honors program from 1990 until 1995 and was a professor of philosophy and associate dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences at the time of his death.
"I think it's symbolic of the way Michael touched every aspect of the University," said David Amber, vice chancellor for student affairs.
Young: Had floor dedicated in to him in Templin Hall.
"The only thing that would make today better for me is if Michael were here and we didn't have to do this," said Sally Frost Mason, dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences.
Templin students led tours of Young House after the ceremony and guests had a chance to see the picture of Young now displayed in the lobby of Templin's sixth floor.
Templin is the first residence hall to have its floors dedicated and renamed as houses. Ken Stoner, director of student housing, said as each residence hall was renovated, its floors would also be dedicated. Renovations are under way this year at Lewis Hall, and it will be the next hall to call its floors houses.
The first five floors of Templin were named houses last October in another ceremony.
Four of Young's former students gave remarks about Young.
"He saw something in me that I wasn't able to see when I looked in the mirror," said Munro Richardson, a 1993 KU graduate.
Shannon Peters, a 1993 KU graduate, said she often wanted to call Young to discuss a new event in her life.
"I think he is the epitome of what a college professor should strive to be," Peters said.

By Augustus Anthony Piazza Kansan staff writer
Despite a bill full of popular touring musical acts, the lawn at Clinton Lake State Park was relatively uncrowded for this year's Javahawk Music Festival.
The attendance for this year's Jayhawk Music Festival decreased from 10,000 people last year to 5,500 people.
Aykle King, head organizer from Kappa Sigma fraternity, said he thought the decrease had to do with the increasing number of musical festivals.
"The first year we did this there wasn't anything else like it," he said.
He said that they might not get as many high-level acts, which caused ticket prices to escalate to $18.50 this year, up from their original $12.50 four years ago.
Klein said that concession sales were lower this year as well.
The profits from the show will be

Klein said that the organizers could make some changes if they put on the event next year.
donated to the Douglas County Aids Project, Health Care Access, Douglas County Red Cross and the Kansas Department of Parks and Wildlife.
Klein said that the total amount of money raised would not be known until today.
Despite the smaller attendance, the bands Everclear and The Pharcey turned Jayhawk Music Festival into a crowd-interactive concert at Clinton Lake State Park.
During the last song of Everclear's set, the band invited 25 crowd members on the stage to dance and sing with the band.
"We always bring fans on the stage," said Art Alexakis, lead singer of Everclear. "It's fun to have them dancing on stage."
I'll put it all over there.
The band played in front of a small, early arriving crowd.
The Pharcyde, who performed after Everclear, invited 15 people from the crowd to dance on stage for most of its set
Jayhawk Music Festival started at 12:20 p.m. with Incubus.
As the afternoon progressed, the

crowd grew.
Special J, a singer for the group 2 Skinnee J's, said that he thought the crowd was great and gave the crowd a nine out of 10.
Many of the KU students who endured the 90-degree heat raved about their experience after the show.
"I had so much fun watching the bands have fun doing what they love to do," said Jenny Rassette, Salina senior.

Electrical fire in alley Friday closes The Bottleneck
PARKING METER
By Augustus Anthony Piazza
Kansan staff writers
The Bottleneck should reopen tonight after a Friday-night electrical fire in the alley behind the building canceled a weekend of scheduled events.
At 11:30 p.m., the electricity went out in The Bottleneck, 749 New Hampshire St., and sparks flashed from the alley. People were rushed out of the bar by the staff members because of the chance of a fire.
The Lawrence Fire Department was called to the Bottleneck at 11:33 p.m.
"When we got there, they said the problem was with a transformer in the alley," said Bill Stark, battalion
chief. "We went back there to check it out but didn't see any smoke or any other evidence of a fire."
Brett Mosiman, owner of The Bottleneck, said that the sparks didn't come from the transformer but from an electrical box in the alley.
The Bottleneck reopened Saturday night, but was closed down again after the fire department was called the same night at 11:44 pm.
"The wiring wasn't repaired correctly," Stark said. "The second call was a result of trying to fix the first problem. Whether it wasn't completed or just done wrong, I don't know."
The bar remained closed yesterday.
night's reason.
The bar remanence existed. Mosiman said that the reason the bar was closed Saturday and last night was different from Friday
"There were some technical wiring issues." Mosiman said.
The Shaking Tree show was canceled after the power went out Friday night, and there was no refund offered to people who had to leave the bar.
The band performed a limited acoustic show on the sidewalk outside of the bar for the 50 fans who didn't leave.
Mosiman would not say what the problem with the technical wiring was, but he said that the bar would be in danger of losing some equipment if the bar reopened before the problem was fixed.
"We were afraid that the place was going to go on fire," said Aaron Het
herington, drummer for Shaking Tree.
Swing Set, which is scheduled every Sunday night at the Bottleneck, was moved to the Granada, 1020 Massachusetts St.
A Bottleneck marquee notified swing dancers about the change in venue.
Several other businesses lost power Friday night.
Tellers, 746 Massachusetts St., lost power from 11 p.m. to 11:30 p.m. People in the restaurant were forced to leave but were able to return when the restaurant regained power.
Gary Kollman, Olathe senior and Tellers employee, said that about 15 of the 60 customers returned after power was restored.

Motel worker catches masturbator in the act
A Hutchinson man was charged with lewd and lascivious behavior Friday morning after he was caught masturbating at a Lawrence motel.
A motel employee saw the 35-year-old man masturbating on the balcony at 1:30 a.m. at Travelodge Motel, 801 Iowa St., Lawrence police said.
"The employee was working outside when he saw the suspect masturbating on the balcony," said Lawrence Police Sgt. George Wheeler. "The man was fully clothed but wasn't wearing any pants."
The man was taken to the Douglas County Jail, where he was issued a notice to appear in District Court and released, police said.

Threat of canine attack rises from panhandling
A 23-year-old New Orleans resident threatened to make his dog attack a Lawrence man Thursday during a dispute about begging territory.
The incident occurred at 7:45 p.m. near Ninth and Massachusetts streets when the 54-year-old victim, the suspect and another Lawrence resident were trying to beg for money on the 900 block of Massachusetts Street, Lawrence police said.
"A dispute ensued over who was panhandling the territory," said Lawrence police Sgt. George Wheeler. "During the altercation, the suspect threatened the victim with his dog."
The incident was witnessed by a passing Lawrence police officer, who arrested the New Orleans man for assault.
The mixed-breed dog bit no one.

Speaker predicts danger for affirmative action
A Washub University professor addressed the fate of affirmative action Friday afternoon in Alderson Auditorium in the Kansas Union.
About 60 people attended the lecture and discussion featuring Rogelio Lasso, professor of law. The event was sponsored by the University of Kansas Equal Opportunity Office and the Office of the Provost.
Lasso said he thought affirmative action was in a threatened state, which was dangerous for the nation.
said.
Lasso said he thought Congress would eliminate affirmative action during the next few years.
"In my view, the future of affirmative action is bleak," he said.
J. D. Horwitz, Wayzata, Minn., junior said affirmative action limited corporations' ability to have the best possible workers.
"it's not right," he said. "I think it's just as racist not to hire a white guy because they need to help a quota."
Lasso said that although minorities had come far in the fight for equality, America was not as integrated as many white people thought. He said the true struggle in the country was due to class position and human nature and would not be solved without specific measures.
"This is my prediction," he said. "By the year 2050, we will partition the nation on racial lines. It will be our only alternative, because the other will be civil war."

Nearly 200 new greek members and staff went to Robinson Center Friday night to participate in an alternative-to-drinking party.
Greeks Advocating Mature Management of Alcohol sponsored the event and provided students with basketball, volleyball, swing dancing and other activities.
The voluntary event had 20 fraternities and sororites represented.
Some students made suggestions about how to improve the event in future years.
"They need to have a mixer instead," said Terah Isaacson, Salina freshman. "Really, people just came here and are hanging out with the people they already knew. This would be fine, but they need games other than the sports so that everyone can interact together."
Jennifer Kinney, assistant director of greek programs, risk management and education, said that GAMMA was interested in hearing the students' suggestions.

Weed discussed herbs such as red clover blossoms and oat straw. She told of stories in which women were relieved of symptoms of fibromyalgia, a painful muscular condition, and other maladies after taking herbs.
"I feel up close and personal with the herbs, almost like a lover," Weed said.
Weed said that although people should explore herbs for themselves, it was a complicated subject that she had studied 35 years.
Weed, who lives in Woodstock, N.Y., travels internationally to educate people about her holistic approach to health and spirituality.

University guide praises the Kansas experience
The University of Kansas is one of the best buys in the nation, according to "Barron's", a leading publisher of college guides.
in the fifth edition of "Barron's Best Buys in College Education," it was stated that KU "draws bicolastal attention, offering a wealth of big-college experiences for a comparatively small price."
Amber Schrag, Wichita senior, agreed with the publication's assessment.
"The school gives a wide range of educational and social opportunities that attracts students from all over the country," Schrag said.
the editors of "Barron's" interviewed students and faculty at universities and found the KU faculty accessible to students at times other than scheduled office hours.
It concluded that the KU student body was friendly, approachable, down-to-earth and proud of being Jayhawks.
Chancellor Robert Hemenway said the listing was an honor for the University.
"I am pleased that "Baron's" recognizes that KU is among the best academic institutions in the country," he said. "This recognition confirms our commitment to provide the best possible education at a very reasonable cost."
Five other Big 12 Conference schools joined KU on the list: Iowa State University, Texas A & M University, University of Colorado, University of Missouri and University of Texas.
The list did not recognize any other Kansas schools.

Calendar Committee nixes lengthening winter break
By Jason Pearce
Kanson staff writer
The Calendar Committee unanimously decided Friday that a proposed intersession period between the fall and spring semesters would not be in the University's best interest.
The intersession, proposed by Provost David Shulenburger, would have lengthened the winter break so students could take short courses or to study abroad.
Carol Holstead, committee member and associate professor of journalism, said that the intersession would have led to graduation being moved back to Memorial Day weekend.
"I don't think anyone would like to see graduation on Memorial weekend," Holsted said. Other committee members said that the provost's office provided little guidance on the intersession's details.
"We know he wants an intersession, but for
how long we don't know," said Richard Morrell.
University registrar.
After the meeting, Erin Kate Mason, Fairway freshman and committee member, said that the current calendar already provided time for two-week study-abroad trips in January.
Mason also said that extending the school year further into the summer would not help students.
"If students can get a full three months off in the summer for an internship, it will do more for them than an extra week in winter," she said.
The committee will recommend this week that Shulenburger kill the intersession idea. It also will recommend that a proposal to create a two-day fall break and to shorten the finals period by two days be approved by the provost and Chancellor Robert Hemenway.
ON THE RECORD
Holstead said the committee should recommend making these changes effective in the fall semester of 1999.

Students ignore weather, show caring in the rain
Fund-raising kicks off with helpful activities
By Sarah Hale
Kanson staff writer
Rainy days can be often spent lounging around the house or reading a good book.
But yesterday's gloomy day did not stop more than 780 volunteers from participating in the Day of Caring.
The event was sponsored by United Way of Douglas County to kick off the year's fund-raising campaign.
Students from various University of Kansas organizations participated in more than 70 projects around Lawrence and made up the majority of the day's volunteers, said Hank Booth, general manager of 105.9 FM and KLWM who helped organize the events. Other volunteers were Lawrence residents.
The event began in the Lawrence High School auditorium with an award presentation for the past year's totals.
Booth said that the United Way had collected $204,657 from company fund-raising plus an additional $100,000 from donations.
Of this amount, Booth announced what the total Rock Chalk Revue donation was.
The revue raised $42,500 for United Way in 1998. This was a 60 percent increase from 1997's total of $26,500.
Rock Chalk Revue is a University living organization, community-service and fund-raising campaign for the United Way that culminates in a variety show in March.
After yesterday's presentation, volunteers headed out across town to participate in activities such as picking up trash in parks or stuffing envelopes at the United Wav's main office.
Booth said that some projects,
such as painting, dry walling or other construction activities could be postponed until later this week. The rest of the outdoor activities continued as planned.
Lori Bookbinder, Tulsa, Okla. junior and community service chairwoman for Sigma Delta Tau, organized a group of students to participate. More than 15 women from her sorority worked on a mailing list at the main office.
"I'm happy we're inside, but we would have come and worked even if our assignment was outside." Bookbinder said.
Like other greek chapters,
Sigma Delta Tau volunteers as
part of Rock Chalk community service.
"I think it's good because it brings together the entire greek community with the Lawrence community to work for a good cause." Bookbinder said.
Other organizations that participated included scholarship halls and Student Senate.
Lexi Janssen, Lee's Summit,
Mo., sophomore, spent the afternoon outside cleaning up soccer and football fields at Wakarusa and Clinton Parkway.
"I'd rather not be in the rain," Janssen said. "But it didn't bother me."

Paper-saving strategy backfires for students without online access
if you're taking an introductory level health, sport and exercise science course this semester, you may never receive a syllabus, a test review or any other type of class handout. Information that used to be given out in class is available only online.
Instructors in the department of HSEs are being encouraged strongly to post class information — such as syllabi and test reviews — on the Internet instead of handing out the information during class. Graduate teaching assistants, who teach virtually all of the introductory HSES courses, do not even have the option of giving their students a handout unless they first get permission.
Joseph Donnelly, chairman of the department of HSES, stresses that this new approach is more of a change in departmental attitude than a change in policy. This attitude calls
HSES courses no longer are using paper for syllabi or class handouts.
for the department to take advantage of available technology.
An additional, and perhaps stronger, motivation for the department's decision is cost. Donnelly said that before the change in attitude, the costs for paper and photocopying in the department were high and continuing to rise. In the past, some GTAs had duplicated entire books to hand out to their students.
The encouragement of GTAs to make course information available on the Internet is commendable. The University should encourage students and faculty to use available technology and resources, such as the
Internet. The HSES and other departments should continue to incorporate Internet usage into classes so that students will be prepared for the computing skills they will need after graduating
Susan Dunavan for the editorial board
Tuition policy benefits true Kansans
Unfortunately, the other half of the department of HSES's new strategy is not so commendable. Although it is economically smart and environmentally friendly to discourage GTAs from using class handouts, it might not always be in the students' best interests. Although the University makes the Internet available to students through its computer centers, not all students — especially those who live off campus — have convenient access to the Internet.
The office of the University of Kansas Registrar should be commended for implementing a policy for students who moved away from Kansas for less than a year before applying for admission and would have been classified as nonresidents.
By preventing instructors from handing out syllabi and other information, the department of HESS is limiting the resources of the students.
There are cases in which students who spent most of their lives in Kansas must leave the state for a short period of time before they apply to the University. Some move away during their senior year of high school and then return. Others have to take a year off from school to be with family in another state.
Once these students had left the state, the University required them
If a Kansan leaves the state for a year or less, he or she still can pay in-state tuition.
to pay out-of-state tuition fees when they returned to Kansas in less than a year.
Out-of-state tuition is considerably higher than in-state tuition — an out-of state undergraduate pays $213.95 more per credit hour than a resident. This policy upset those set on attending the University and discouraged others from coming.
The office of the Registrar's new policy eases this problem.
Under the new residency rule, students who have been lifelong residents of Kansas but have moved away from the state for less than 12 months before applying for admission may still be considered Kansas residents if they lived in the state at the time they turned in their application to the University.
This rule may aid only a small group of students, but it certainly will alleviate the monetary stress and acknowledge that they are, in fact. Kanss.
Sometimes bureaucrats are reluctant to change existing rules such as this, but this time the Registrar's office did the right thing and deserves recognition.

Perspective
Philosophy professor taught more than texts
Hume, Kant, Descartes and how to think. These things were some of what J. Michael Young, professor of philosophy, taught me in his introductory

Guest columnist
philosophy course. He also taught (by example more than precept) how to live life with zest, boundless generosity, commitment and caring. He taught me all of these lessons in the year I knew him before cancer claimed his life.
On Saturday, one floor of Templin Hall that houses honors students was dedicated as the Young House. In giving a short speech at the event.
I felt honored to be a part of a ceremony honoring Young. It was important to be able to show my appreciation of his influence in my life by sharing my experience with those who will live in a place that bears his name.
Although I took the class four years ago, I remember Philosophy 141 very well. It is the class I wish my little sister could have visited to convince her to attend the University of Kansas. Young's style of teaching was effective because he was genuine.
He honestly thought that his class of freshmen had valuable insights about the texts he had been studying for years, and he was willing to spend the time wading through the hazy dialogue that surrounded those insights. Young had a gift for transforming the most confused and garbled student comments into clear and articulate philosophical discussion. Discussion always is risky in 100-level philosophy courses. The abstract ideas of the philosophers are difficult to make clear. As a result, students often are afraid to comment or ask questions.
In Young's class, however, there was always lively discussion. He was the lens that focused our thoughts. Speaking in class was never a scary prospect. The questions Young asked helped me learn to ask myself questions that would bring a text into focus. Our discussions in class helped me understand how to do philosophy in a way that was interesting and relevant.
The comments he gave on papers helped me learn to write about philosophy in ways that were both creative and clear. Young's intellectual vigor was evident in the way he taught philosophy and in the way he helped us learn to write and speak.
Young was also generous with his time. On the first day of class, he informed us that because he had cancer there would be some canceled classes when he had treatments, and the course might be canceled if he
Although Young's health worsened during the course of the semester, I remember him missing only a few classes. He was committed to teaching us and always had energy for class. His love of teaching and philosophy was evident in his approach. He wanted not only for his students to understand the material, but also for his students to enjoy discussing it. On days near mid-terms and finals when we were all tired and sluggish, Young was understanding and animated. Eventually, the class got caught up in discussion, drawn in by Young's questions or by the responses his questions drew from other students.
passed away during the semester. His time was short, and yet he made time to teach the class and always made time for students. Not long after class started, I asked him some questions about a topic I had studied in a summer class. He stayed after class for quite awhile to discuss my questions, and later emailed some further comments to me. From that time on, Young and I e-mailed frequently and occasionally met at his office to discuss philosophy. He became my adviser and friend, giving me council on everything from choosing a major to cross-country skiing.
Once the semester was over, Young and I kept in contact through e-mail and occasional visits in his office. I was awed by his continually upbeat attitude. His love for life was apparent in his approach to death. He had resolved to live. Moreover, he had resolved to live doing the work he loved. We still talked about the philosophies of Kant and Hume, but we also talked about life plans. He shared with me his love of teaching, research and advising. Occasionally, he told me about a new doctor, or an upcoming therapy session — planning for his life. We also discussed my plans — wanting to become a professor, choosing classes, seizing opportunities for research and studying abroad.
Young died the summer after my freshman year. His influence in my life, however, has not ended. I still use the kind of questioning I learned from him to understand philosophical texts. I recently learned to cross-country ski and I am still hoping one day to be a professor.
I am grateful for the time I was able to spend with him and learn from him. Although I now have other good advisers, I miss his special brand of advice and friendship. His teaching style is one I hope to emulate someday, and I will be indebted forever for the lessons in philosophy and life he taught in Philosophy 141 and beyond.

Smart cards dampen transportation experience
technology is wonderful thing. If it weren't for technology, there would be no telephones, no computers and no hotter, operate pleasure devices like
you'll find at Priscilla's. Yet technology has a mean, ugly side. Usually this bad side is revealed when technology is thrust into places where it is not needed or wanted. The new KU bus-pass system was a perfect example.
The old validation system — now new again — of showing one's sticker-emblazoned ID card to the driver worked fine. There were no secret sticker-forgery rings or sticker-stealing vang about which
PETER E. HAWKINS
Carrie Johnson opinion @ kansan.com
I knew. The system works fine. A fraction of a second was all it takes for the driver to look at your card, give a slight nod and click the counter.
So why the change in the first place?
The new — now old — process was more complicated and much slower. Students had to insert the card into the reader a certain way — gold chip first, right-side up, front of card facing left — hold it in for a second or so for the machine to recognize the chip, then pull it out quickly and wait for the machine to give a green light and beep its approval. This all took about three seconds, assuming the person boarding knew how to do it. The inexperienced took longer.
Three seconds may not sound like much, but when there were 40 people trying to get on a bus, the extra time quickly added up to delays. Drivers said they were usually five to 10 minutes behind schedule because of the new—now old—system, and sometimes ran up to 30 minutes late; and that was on days with nice weather.
On rainy days or when it gets cold, many more people will be riding the bus. I shudder at the thought of what delays that hightech card system would have created. The cards reportedly didn't even work when wet.
Picture it: Scores of students standing in the icy rain, waiting to board the nice cozy bus, but being slowed to a snail's pace because no one's card will work unless it is bone dry. Can't you just feel it now — you're cold, wet, and chilled to the bone.
I don't know whose idea it was to switch. I assume they meant well, but I doubt that the person or persons who are responsible ride the bus very often. Anyone who has had experience boarding a crowded bus knows that speed is essential. And anyone who has had trouble with a stubborn ATM, debit or credit card knows that electronic reading systems and speed are not necessarily associated with one another.
Bus drivers hated the new — now old — system. Students hated the new — now old — system.
Thankfully, the people have spoken! (Or grumbled loudly.) For now, at least, they've trashed the card-readers (by putting tape over the opening or by stuffing it full of candy wrappers) and drivers are only looking at our IDs, though the cards don't give any visual proof that we've paid for a bus pass.
At least for the near future, we've returned to the good old days of the simple flash-and-go
—and now invisible sticker — bus pass. No complicated electronic verification systems to worry about. Just flash the card to the friendly, unstressed, on-time bus driver and grab a seat. You don't have to show it to the driver in any special way, at any certain speed or for any definite length of time. You just flash it and go. And the cards certainly will work even if they have a few raindrops on them.
But let's remember: If someone decides to bring the electronic readers back, don't take out your frustration on the drivers. They would hate it even more than you do. Can you imagine having to listen to that evil thing beep all day? Instead, let's just keep complaining to the people with the power to bring back the 1984-like bus system.
If we don't get the electronic readers removed permanently, someone might snap and take a screwdriver to the useless things.

Frasier outshines Seinfeld at Emmys
50th awards show highlights TV events throughout the years
By Julie M. Sachs
Kansas staff writer
Kansan staff writer
About two-thirds of a billion people watched last night's 50th Annual Emmy Awards ceremony.
Many students at the University of Kansas were in that number.
Sarah Smarsh, Kingman freshman, watched the awards in Templin Hall with her roommate.
"I watched it because it's on, and I like to watch TV stars and to learn about them."
Smarsh said she watched to support the cast of *Seinfeld*.
Seinfeld was nominated for Best Comedy Series, but Frasier won.
The academy also didn't give and award to Julia Louis-Dreyfuss, who portrayed Elaine on Seinfeld, for Best Supporting Actress in a Comedy.
"I wanted to root for *Seinfeld* since it was their last year to win." Smarsh said.
Instead, Lisa Kudrow, who plays Phoebe on Friends, took
Salina freshman

home the award.
Later into the awards ceremony, another cast member of Seinfeld missed out on an award.
Jason Alexander, who portrayed the character of George, lost the Best Supporting Actor in a Comedy series to actor David Hyde Pierce who plays Niles in the show. Frasier.
But one character from Seinfeld did have the spotlight for a moment.
Before presenting an award, Michael Richards, who played Kramer, lost his balance and fell in Kramer's trademark style.
"That was so awesome," Smarsh said. "And it wasn't staged."
Courtney Crouch, Wichita freshman, also was disappointed that Seinfeld didn't win any awards.
because of the show's popularity," she said.
"It really didn't make sense
Because this year marked the 50th anniversary of the Emmy Awards, the ceremony showed excerpts from the history of television, such as the assassination of President John Kennedy and the first walk on the moon.
Winners of the first Emmy Awards in 1948 also were given special recognition at this year's show.
Smarsh said that she thought the 50th anniversary tributes had their good and bad points.
"I thought it was neat," Smarsh said. "But they made the program extremely, boringly long."
Curtin Baker, Salina freshman,
watched the entire broadcast.
"I watched it because it's on, and I like to watch TV stars and to learn about them," Baker said.

Art market at Haskell draws crowd
The heat was intense for some artists Saturday who were visiting Lawrence from different climates.
Adverse weather conditions do not deter patrons, artists
"It's so muggy here," said Clark Tenakhongva, a Hopi artist from Polacca, Ariz.
The market offered visitors a chance to eat fry bread, watch dancers and admire or purchase Native American art.
Lawrence residents, University of Kansas and Haskell Indian Nations University students, and artists from around the country turned out in appreciation of Native American art this weekend.
Jennifer Kerns, Kansas City graduate student, said it was her second year attending the show.
"I love it," she said. "It's a great opportunity to see really quality work."
Melody Simpson, an artist from Acoma, N.M., said she has come to the market

"I come back because I have friends here," she said.
"I like this show."
Rachel, 10, could not attend the show because of school. She will attend an upcoming show in California, Simpson said, and she couldn't miss school for both trips.
Simpson was displaying not only her own pottery and small sculptures at the show, but also the work of her daughter, Rachel.
Rachel's art, pottery, small sculptures and ornaments, were selling well at the show.
"She had to choose," Simpson said.
"When she got to be about three years old, we gave her clay and sat her in her high chair," Simpson explained. "She started making 'magic animals.' We'd call her 'magic fingers.'"

Anne Merydith Wolf, project coordinator for International Programs, said the reception was held to acknowledge and welcome this year's international faculty and scholars and to inform them of the cultural and recreational opportunities on campus.
"You honor us with your presence," Chancellor Robert Hemenway told the scholars.
The University of Kansas welcomed its visiting international scholars with a reception Friday afternoon at Spencer Art Museum.
She said the reception was a way of bringing the scholars together for a formal welcome.
"Most of them, since they're not students, don't go through new student orientation." Wolf said.

The Starr Report Congress tests public's mind on Clinton
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Congressional Democrats, joined by a top Republican senator, spoke yesterday of a punishment short of impeachment for President Clinton and demanded his lawyers end legal hairsplitting as they rebut Kenneth Starr's report.
"There's going to be some sort of sanction here," said Republican Sen. Orrin Hatch, chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee. "The question is what—from impeachment to censure to rebuke to condemnation or what."
At the same time, with midterm elections looming, several Democrats said they hoped the issue could be dealt with swiftly.
Clinton skipped church services during the day, and remained out of the public eye inside the White House.
But with his presidency clearly in peril, his lawyers and aides fanned out across yesterday's television talk shows to declare that whatever his transgressions, Clinton committed no impeachable offenses.
Starr's report, released Friday, cites 11 potentially impachable offenses, all
Brownback said that private actions have public consequences, especially for the president of the United States.
In a speech before the Senate last week, Brownback said, "I rise today to respectfully ask President Clinton to do the right thing for our country and resign from office voluntarily."
U. S. Rep. Vince Snowbarger, R-Kan., and congressman for the Lawrence and Kansas City area, said he supported the release of the Starr investigation.
"The president did not commit perjury," Kendall said. "Starr's report is full of graphic and unnecessarily salacious material. It is not relevant."
"I felt strongly that we should make this report available to the people who paid for it as soon as possible," he said.
Clinton's lead attorney, David Kendall, argued in the same vein in an appearance on ABC's This Week program.
Snowbarger posted the report on his congressional Web site and has called for the president's resignation. After reading the report, he said he supported an investigation of impeachment as well.
Betsy Holahan, press secretary for U.S. Sen. Pat Roberts, R-Kan., said Roberts was traveling in central Kansas on business over the weekend and needed more time to digest Starr's report.
U. S. Sen. Sam Brownback, R-Kan., has called for Clinton's resignation to spare the spectacle of possible immeachment proceedings.
"Iam particularly troubled about the lying under oath in the grand-jury process," Snowbarger said. "He (the president) knew the information was out there."
Snowbarger said he expected Starr to release reports on other areas of investigation at a later date.
Brownback said that he was concerned about Clinton's foreign policy and his influence on the nation's character.
U. S. Rep. Todd Tiahrt, R-Kan., has called for impeachment proceedings since last October so the House of Representatives could decide whether enough evidence exists for a trial to take place in the Senate.
The White House issued a blistering rebuttal Saturday that accused Starr of a hit-and-run smear camPAim without legal merit.
The office of U.S. Rep. Jim Ryun, RKan., said Ryun would issue a state-

At the same time, the White House's counterattack against Starr was achieving success among the public. A CBS poll, taken Saturday, found 60 percent of those responding thought Starr included numerous lurid sexual details in his report to embarrass the president. Only 33 percent thought it was to prove perjury.

U. S. Rep. Jerry Moran, R-Kan., could not be reached for comment on the matter.
All four Kansas representatives voted for the Starr report to be released to the public.
Mary Isenhour, campaign manager for Democratic gubernatorial candidate Rep. Tom Sawyer, said Sawyer was extremely disappointed in the president.
She said that Sawyer thought Clinton's actions were immoral and wrong, Isenhour said that Sawyer was not focused on national issues.
"The governor believes this is an unfortunate event and is hoping that Congress gets back to business as soon as possible," Goering said.

return to Washington from a weekend of campaigning and testing public opinion in their home districts.
"Ultimately, if the president and the Congress want to have the due process that they are both allowed in this instance, we may end up going to that next level," Rep. Vic Fazio, California Democrat, said on ABC.
Speaking on condition of anonymity, other officials in both parties said such a step was growing more likely before Congress wraps up work and returns home for the elections.
Even before Judiciary Committee members have a chance to complete their review of Starr's evidence, officials have expressed the growing idea that the House is likely to take the next step and vote for a formal impeachment inquiry.
Allan Cigler, professor of politica science, said Americans may see the report from two perspectives: Some see a description of outrageous moral conduct, but others see a report that may or may not contain proof of impeachable offenses by the president.
It would permit the Judiciary Committee to expand its staff and conduct an investigation of its own, a probe that would not necessarily be limited to issues involving Lewinsky.
"I'm not sure that a member of Congress has any more insight into this than someone Monica Lewinsky's age," Loomis said.
Loomis said KU students could read and interpret the report in much the same fashion as the rest of the country.
It is not clear whether such a vote would be preceded by a public hearing. Republicans have
Cigler said Congress would only act quickly and decisively if there was an overwhelming public response in one direction. But he said Congress won't let public opinion dictate its actions.
"There are limits to what they can do if public opinion is particularly strong in either direction." Cigler said. "Pub

lic opinion constrains Congress." Cigler said that the next few days would show how strongly the public reacted.
"You shouldn't decide the fate of a presidency based on polls," said Jack Martin, director of the KU Young Democrats communications committee.
Martin said that the report didn't prove the president committed high crimes and misdemeanors, and that it was far from grounds for impeachment.
ment.
"You spend $40 million and you got a 445-page trashy romance novel," Martin said.
"We've already determined that the president shouldn't have more rights in the court system than a normal American," Cook said.
Ward Cook, president of College Republicans said the OIC's report proved Clinton lied under oath and obstructed justice. He said he was shocked and disgusted by the way Clinton allegedly manipulated the court system to get out of trouble.
Cook said he was disappointed in the White House's rebuttal to the OIC's report.
Martin said it was difficult for the White House to come up with a substantial rebuttal without seeing the OIC's report before the public did.
Mark Chotimongkol, Dodge City third-year law student, said the perjury and obstruction of justice charges were his area of interest. He said the report was simply a summary of evidence gathered by the grand jury.
"In fairness to the president, they should have been allowed to see the report ahead of time," Martin said.
ine key players: The following are the principal people involved in the investigation
"There is definitely a political dimension to this," he said.
Chotimongkol said that if Clinton was guilty of the offenses charged by Starr, the alleged offenses weren't severe enough to put the country through a presidential impeachment trial.
Bill Clinton: President of the United States
Kenneth Starr: Independent Presidential Candidate
Monica Lewinsky: Former White House Press Secretary
Hillary Clinton: First Lady of the United States
Chelsea Clinton: First Daughter
Henry Hyde: Judiciary chairman
Vernon Jordan: Citizen and Filibuster
Betty Currie: Personal Secretary to the President
"Impeaching the president is a pretty severe thing, and it could create pretty serious damage to the country," Chotimongkol said.
Cook said he was struggling to decide whether he felt Clinton should be impeached. He said it troubled him that Clinton would misuse his office and he hoped the president would resign before impeachment proceedings could begin.

Perfect day of football becomes bad dream
It was shaping up to be the perfect weekend for college football for me.
My beloved Iowa Hawkeyes were hosting rival Iowa State at 11 a.m. Saturday, and to my delight, those thoughtful men in Bristol, Connecticut aired the game on ESPN2.
In addition to my home-state grudge match, I was looking forward to another
Mississauga and Missouri border battle.
Wilson is a Dos Moines, Iowa, senior in journalism.
Last year's duel epitomized the rivalry, and this year's game promised more.
Column
As if the football gods were smiling on my wide-eyed face, both games were scheduled on national television one after the other.
I am a student of the University of Georgia.
Kevin Wilson
I could watch the Hawkeyes pulver-
ize the feeble Cyclones before flipping over to witness the Jayhawks' secondstraight win over the Tigers.
At 11:11, the Cyclones kicked off, and my dream weekend was finished.
At 10:45 Saturday morning, I sprung out of bed like a jack-in-the-box and floated to the television. I found the football station, poured a bowl of Fruity Pebbles and hunkered down.
An Iowa State wide receiver by the name of Kevin Wilson (hey, that's my name) blocked the first Iowa punt, and the Hawkeves never recovered.
Running back Darren Davis, Little brother of back-to-back 2,000-yard rusher Troy Doyle, scampered for 244 yards and helped the Cyclones upend the Hawkeyes for the first time in 15 years.
Although my voice was hoarse from yelling and my heart was hanging heavy, I still had faith in Terry Allen.
Maybe next week lady luck will be in my corner.
I had faith in the new and improved Kansas offense. I had faith in the stingy Jayhawk defense that limited the Tigers to seven points last year.
M
Most of all, I had faith in lady luck. How could both of my teams lose to their hated rivals on the same day?
KU
Alas, lady luck was about to turn sour. Miscues, mishaps and missed tackles haunted Kansas.
The Jayhawks started out right, pounding away at the Tigers' defense with a ground attack spearheaded by David Winbush and Mitch Bowles.
Bowles had an explosive 39-yard touchdown run and Joe Garcia tacked on a field goal to put Kansas up 10.
A blocked punt put up Missouri's second touchdown. Three unnecessary 15-yard penalties fueled a Tiger drive in the first half and helped set the stage for the biggest blunder of the day.
Less than a minute before halftime, Kansas defensive end Dion Johnson scooped up a Missouri fumble and for a brief moment Trejoiced. But before my butt hit the couch, the ball was loose again, and Missouri graciously accepted the gift. Next play: Jones touchdown pass
Missouri 20, Kansas 13.
What was Johnson thinking? What did he think he was going to do, run for a touchdown? Just fall on the ball, big fella, and Kansas rides into the locker room all tied up.
West was unstoppable, running for 319 yards on 33 carries and two touchdowns. How does West run for 319 yards against anyone, let alone a Division I defense? Sure, he is big and strong, but 319 yards? Come on.
Despite a brief appearance by lady luck (see HEMI Childs' untouched 79-yard punt return), Kansas could not slow down tailback Devin West and lost 41-23.
Border War
The Kansas run defense has to improve if it expects to tangle with the top dogs, and the Jayhawks must stop beating themselves.

Team takes lead early but falters in 41-23 loss
By Jodi M. Smith
Kansas sportswriter
For the second week in a row, the Kansas Jayhawks shot themselves in the foot.
And it might take a non-conference game with Illinois State on Saturday to break the mistake-riddled losing trend the Jayhawks have created this season.
As in the Oklahoma State loss, the Jayhawks battled hard with Missouri, trading touchdowns until a turnover

his sayawks began a Tiger free-for-all, leading to a 41-23 loss at Missouri on Saturday.
With 13-20 remaining in the game and the Jayhawks losing 27-23, quarterback Zack Wegner had a pass intercepted in the end zone by Missouri free safety Harold Piersey.
It was Missouri's game from there.
]
It was Missouri's game from there. Following the turnover, the Tigers scored 14 points in the next 13 minutes to make their redemption game — Kansas won last season's game 15-7. a blowout.
Allen: Uset with the penalties his team committed.
"That's where experience shows up," Missouri coach Larry Smith
said of his team. "They went out there and took charge." But if you were to ask a Kansas fan, it looked less like Missouri taking charge and more like Kansas giving up.
Missoula isn't taking charge and more here. "I don't think it was giving up, I don't know if it was fatigue, I don't know what it was," said running back David Winbush, who had 23 carries for 99 yards. "I can't really talk for the defense, but for the offense, we just can't shoot ourselves in the foot, and that's what we did."
Wegner's interception wasn't the Jayhawks' only fatal mistake.
Perhaps the most crucial drive of the game came in the last two minutes of the first half.
With the game tied 13-13, the Tigers began a drive on their 20-yard line then moved downfield thanks to Jayhawk penalties. Two personal foul penalties and a pass

interference call gave the Tigers 45 yards. With the ball at the Kansas 9-yard line, Kansas' Jerome Parks forced a fumble that was recovered by defensive line
David Winbush Kansas running back
man Dion Johnson. Johnson ran the ball two yards, fumbled, and Missouri running back Devin West recovered. Missouri scored on the next play and went into halftime ahead 20-13.
"I thought we showed terrible compose at the end of the first half that gave them the opportunity." Kansas coach Terry Allen said. "We had two ridiculous penalties, and we can't do that because we could have been in position to actually dominate the football game if we'd done things a little bit better."
Dominate the Jayhawks did—early.
Dommite the way they do in Kansas jumped out to a quick 10-0 lead after a 39-yard touchdown run by running back Mitch Bowles and a 34-foot field goal by Jon Carrino.
After the Tigers came back with two touchdowns of their own, another 37-yard field goal kick by Garcia tied the game.
But it wasn't meant to be after that.
The Jayhawks' final stellar play came early in the second half when freshman Henri Childs returned a Missouri punt 79 yards for a touchdown that tied the game, 20-20. Childs was criticized after the Oklahoma State game for allowing a punt to drop and roll 78 yards.
"It's funny," Allen said. "You live by the sword, you die by the sword. That's the same individual that some people questioned last week for not fielding the ball and here he comes out as a true freshman and does a marvelous job." The 6:30 p.m. game at Memorial Stadium Saturday against Illinois State, a Division I-AA school with a 1-0 record, has lower stakes and more possibilities. The Jayhawks are ready to capitalize.
"This is the second week in a row we've come out here and we can play against these guys and probably even beat them, but we've got to find a way to turn it around in the third and fourth quarters," Winbush said. "We have to find a way to turn it around and keep it going. That's the main thing we need to focus on next week."
Missouri running back sets school record
By Sam Mellinger
Kansan sportswriter
Conventional wisdom says that quarterback Corby Jones is the most dangerous man on the University of Missouri football team.
After all, Jones led the Big 12 Conference in total offense last year and is the main reason Missouri's option offense is effective.
So Kansas coach Terry Allen cannot be blamed for wanting to focus his defensive game plan on stopping Jones. But the focus on Missouri's quarterback left the defense vulnerable to another man in the backfield
"They found it, and Devin was obviously blessed enough to take advantage of it."
Much of West's success can be traced to Kansas' concentration on stopping Jones from getting outside.
"He surprised me," said Patrick Brown, Kansas senior linebacker. "Devin came strong."
West rushed for a school-record 319 yards on 33 carries, scoring on 3- and 45-yard runs.
"That was a fantastic performance," said Larry Smith, fifth-year Missouri head coach. "I've coached a lot of years and had a lot of great backs but I've never had a great effort like that."

Kansas was intent on taking away Jones on the option. Although the plan had modest success on Jones — he was held to 74 yards on the ground and seemed to be hit every play — West on his way to the most productive game in Missouri history.
"We sacrificed the middle," Allen said.
Although West's name will go down in the record books, Missouri's offensive line feels as much a part of the record as West.
"Absolutely," said center Rob Riti. "That's one of the main reasons we play the game, to go out there, make some holes, and help our running back put up numbers."
West's performance was frighteningly consistent. None of his 32 carries resulted in a loss and 13 plays went for eight or more yards. West was quick to credit his blockers.
"It was all the offensive line," West said. "If they don't block, I don't run."
Riti said it was the line's pleasure.
"We know that if we create some holes, he'll make some plays," he said.
West did. He ran 55 yards on an off-tackle play in the second quarter and broke a 45-yard touchdown run up the middle in the fourth quarter.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday
Friends are the key to your success this year. You're lucky in September regarding travel and domestic matters. December is confusing and travel is more stressful then. Love Inspires you in January, but there's still a lot of work to be done. Follow through on a tough job in February and all the way into March. By then you should have it pretty well wrapped up, and you'll be feeling much better about yourself. In May, everything seems to fall into place. In July, your friends would love to join you for a celebration.
Aries: Today is a 5.
Your friend and your conscience are pushing you to get involved. There's work to be done, and it's calling to you. Somebody needs what you can provide. Figure out what it is and provide it.
Taurus: Today is a 7.
It'll be easy to learn today. You'll be able to remember what you read and what you watch other people do. If you know an expert at something you want to learn, imitation would be especially effective. It's the most sincere form of flattery. So in addition to gaining new skills, you could gain a new friend.
Carmen, in town, is 6.
Gemini: Today is a 6.
People who make lots of money tend to create jobs because they have money to spend and things they don't want to do. Wouldn't you like to be in that position? You'd be great at creating new jobs, and you might be able to think of one today. That will be your motivation for gathering the money that's due to you.
Cancer: Today is a 7.
Finish something you've been meaning to complete.
Get it out of your life. This could be an old partner, an old worry, an old fear. Whatever it is, it's time to get rid of it. It could even be something that you'll sell at a profit. Does that give you any ideas?
Less than a n a
People are making demands on you, and you don't like it. You like to be the one making the demands. To a good leader, you have to know how to follow. Today, you might as well be cheerful about it. You'll make a much better impression and it looks like you'll make more money, too. That ought to motivate you! Viroa: Today is a 7
Get together with your team and figure out what each of you is going to do next. You're the perfect person to get that organized. Once you clear what needs to be done, you can communicate it to the others. Then everybody will be clear, and the whole thing will turn into play instead of work.
Libra: Today is a 5.
Scorpio: Today is a 7.
The moon is in Cancer, and Cancer often prods Libra to take action. Consequently, your relationships with people that have Cancer in their charts can sometimes be confrontational. The truth is, they do have a lot to teach you. Watch for the lesson today and get it as quickly as possible.
Sagittarius: Today is a 6.
You're powerful and dynamic, and your intuition should be right on target today. If you notice yourself getting vindictive or stressed, think instead about serving others. Who out there needs something you can provide? It'll snap you right out of that mood.
**Short Sentence:** Today is in 6.
Do you know how much money you have? Do you have assets you haven't counted yet? This is the perfect day to figure out what you're worth. If you need help, ask for it. Get your affairs in order now and you'll be very happy later.
Capricorn: Today is a 7.
Listen carefully and you may hear the call of destiny. It's urging you to take action, possibly including a change of location. You're about to embark on a new adventure of your own design. You've been talking about it for quite some time, but now you can actually make it happen.
Aquarius: Today is a 5.
P
It looks like you have bills to pay. That generally makes you uncomfortable, but in this case it could be inspirational. Necessity is the mother of invention, remember? You're an inventive person. Put all that studying you've been done lately to work by coming up with another brilliant idea. One that pays.
Picasso: Today is a 7.
rne sun's in Virgo, which can be annoying at times. Virgo always gives you helpful advice about how you should improve yourself, but today the shoe is on the other foot. You can give the Virgo lots of interesting insights. You're full of them right now, and most of them are right on target.

Jayhawk women reign in match, tie scoring record

Kansan sportswriter
The rain didn't stop yesterday and neither did the goals.
The Kansas soccer team tied its record for most goals in a game in defeating Central Missouri State 4-1 yesterday afternoon on a wet and sloppy Super Target Field after falling to Iowa 5-1 on Friday.
"We've been struggling to score," Kansas head coach Dan Magner said. "We scored four today, so that was plus for us."
However, the game didn't start well for the Jayhawks. For the fourth time in their five matches, the Jayhawks conceded the first goal.
In the seventh minute, Jennies midfielder Megan Heideman took a shot from about 18 yards out. The shot was deflected in the goal by Jayhawk midfielder Natalie Hooydvel past goalkeeper Jen Fecke's left hand.
The Jayhawks had an opportunity to equalize in the 11th minute when forward Lindsay Kennedy was dragged down in the penalty box. Defender Jackie Dowell lined up to take the penalty shot but she kicked it wide right.
However, it took Dowell only two minutes to redeem herself. She took a free kick from the right left side of the penalty box. Jennies goalkeeper Carrie Payne tried to push the ball over the top of the goal, but it slipped through her hands and bounced in the open goal.
"I was excited about the goal,"
Dowell said. "I just wanted to get the ball into the mix, into the area. I was happy that I did get an opportunity to redeem myself. I wasn't mentally focused on the penalty kick,"
The Jayhawks took the lead for good in the 17th minute. Defender Kylie Watts pounded in a header following a corner kick from midfielder Katie Lents.
The Jayhawks had more opportunities to score in the first half, but the standing water on the field made it difficult for Kansas to capitalize.
Another Jayhawk experienced redemption in the 53rd minute when Hoogveld made a long run with the ball, beat four defenders and shot the ball into the lower-left corner of the goal from about 20 yards out.
"It felt good to score, and I felt I had to make up for the goal I deflected in," she said.
The Jayhawks put the finishing touches on the victory in the 87th minute when substitute Erin Hon followed up a shot by midfielder Dani DeGuerre with her first goal of the season. The ball rolled straight to the unguarded Hon, who had no trouble putting it in from only three yards out.
Although the win and goals were satisfying, Magner still saw room for improvement.
"We need to work on collective pressure," he said. "The forwards need to pressure their defenders and the midfielders need to join in. Then, all the defenders can do is dribble, not a smart thing to do in this weather, or dump it into our end."

Kansas cross country runners made it up the disheartening Billy Mill's Ascent near the end of the 1998 Jayhawk Invitational cross country course Saturday.
But they have more hills to climb before the end of the season.
"The meet ran well," said coach Gary Schwartz.
图示为一名演奏者手持三根弦乐器。
The men finished seventh in a field of 15 teams and the women finished 10th out of 14 at Rim Rock Farm north of Lawrence.
By Matthew Friedrichs Kansan sports editor
Despite the low finishes of Kansas runners, the meet gave Kansas a chance to prepare for the 1998 NCAA Division I and II championships, which will be held Nov. 23 at Rim Rock.
Andy Tate, Kansas junior, finished in 27:03, more than two minutes behind winner Gilbert Tuhabonye of Abilene Christian, and Sara Brinkley, Kansas freshman, finished in 19:41, 1:56 behind winner Amy Yoder of Arkansas.
Brinkley, a triathlete who competed for the U.S. junior national team, had Kansas' best time.
Schwartz, who said he preferred not to have freshman competing, said he was pleased with Brent Behrens, who placed 49th with a time of 27:43, and Pete Prince, who placed 60th with a time of 28:03.
"I think she's going to surprise some people," Schwartz said.
who place our trust.
"I think they had a very good first collegiate cross country meet," Schwartz said.
The women were less successful.
"We are young, we are very inexperienced, and we have a long way to go to improve." Schwartz said.
Two of the men's top runners and one of the women's top runners did not compete
Rajiv Nyambura, Nakuru, Kenya, freshman, did not compete because he has not been cleared by the NCAA clearinghouse.
thing over," Fogg said. "It's no golf course." In addition to national contenders, the meet had new timing technology and a barcode system to identify runners, Schwartz said.
Brian Jensen, Ronne, Denmark, transfer student from Oklahoma State, did not compete because an eligibility appeal has not been completed.
Runners from Georgetown, Arkansas and Abilene Christian should be back in November.
Ann Deveaux, Barlett, Ill., senior is still recovering from an injury.
Abilene Christian runners Tuhabonye and Musa Gwanzura finished first and second.
Abbene Christian, a Division II team, and national powerhouse Arkansas were among the teams that attended the meet to learn the course before nationals.
"Since it's going to be a national course, it was a good experience," said Tuhabonye, a native of Burundi.
Georgetown coach Ron Helmer, who grew up in Lyons and attended Southwestern College in Winfield, has brought his nationally ranked women's team to Rim Rock the last two years to prepare them for the championships.
Katrina deBoer, of the winning Georgetown women's team, has run at Rim Rock three times.
"It's a tough course, but it's also interesting," deBoer said.
The course is a true cross country course, and the runners at the championship will have to adapt to the competition, the course and the Kansas weather when they return. Helmer said.

Battle for home-run king continues
The Associated Press
CHICAGO — Not so fast, Mark. Slammin' Sammy may win the race for the home-run record after all.
Sammy Sosa tied Mark McGwire yesterday, connecting twice against the Milwaukee Brewers to raise his total to 62.
"It's unbelievable. It was something that even I can't believe I was doing." Sosa said after the Cubs' dramatic 11-10, 10-inning win. "It can happen to two people, Mark and I."
Sosa hit a home run off Bronswell Patrick in the fifth inning, sending an 0-1 pitch 480 feet into the street behind the left-field fence at Wrigley Field. Sosa hit another 480-foot home run in the ninth inning, a solo shot off Eric Plunk.
That one dropped Babe Ruth into fourth place on the single-season list.
With tears and sweat running down his face as he sat in the dugout following his triumphant tour around the bases, Sasa came out for three emotional curtain calls. Fans littered the field while chanting "Sammy! Sammy!" causing a delay that lasted six minutes.
"I have to say what I did is for the people of Chicago, for America, for my mother, for my wife, my kids and the people I have around me. My team. It was an emotional moment," Sosa said.
Sosa was carried off the field at the end of the game, which kept the Cubs one game ahead of the New York Mets in the National League wildcard race. Sosa was on deck when Mark Grace hit the game-winning home run.
In the game with Ruth hit 60 home runs in 1927, that stood as the home run record for 34 years until Roger Maris hit 61.
McGwire broke Maris' mark on Tuesday
against the Cubs and six days later, Sosa surpasseed it, too.
"It was chilling when McGwire did it. I was dumbfounded," Grace said. "I thought pretty much the home-run race was going to be McGwire's. But when my buddy gets hot, he can hit them in a hurry. And he proved that. I just hope Sammy gets the attention he deserves. Not only has he hit 62 homers, but he has carried us. He is without a doubt the MVP of the National League."
Sosa, who has hit four homers in his last three games, was in St. Louis on Tuesday when McGwire hit No. 62. McGwire's Cardinals played in Houston yesterday night; McGwire and Sosa had hit home runs 20 times on the same day
Both of Sosa's home runs cleared the back fence at Wrigley Field, prompting scrambles for the baseballs. Sosa has 10 home runs this year off Milwaukee, the most against any team.
After the first home run, a parade of fans raced after the ball as it went down the street. Sosa rounded the bases pumping his fists as a sellout crowd at Wrigley began stamping its feet.
By the time Sosa struck out in the seventh, the street was filled with fans. When he was up to bat in the ninth with the Cubs trailing 10-8, they were chanting "62! 62!"
The No. 62 ball was retrieved by John Witt of Dixon, Ill., who stuffed it in his pocket and promised to negotiate with Sosa after the game. Witt was sitting in a van off Kenmore Avenue outside the stadium, watching the game on a small TV when he saw Sosa swing. The ball bounced a couple of times and landed at his feet.
"I don't think I had a chance," he said. "It's an unbelievable feeling. How do you know how much it's worth?"

Volleyball team suffers first defeat of season
Bechard: Late night may have hurt team in tournament.
ay Laura Bokenkroger
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas volleyball team improved to 7-1 after winning two of its three matches last weekend at the Doubletree Suites Guest Classic in Indianapolis.
The Jayhawks defeated Butler University (11-15, 15-8, 15-7 and 15-7) on Friday and Eastern Michigan (11-15, 15-6, 15-7 and 15-9) on Saturday. They lost their first match of the season to Kentucky (14-16, 7-15 and 14-16) on Saturday.
Kansas coach Ray Bechard said that the competition would be good preparation for the team's home opener on Friday, as the Jayhawks face San Francisco in the Jayhawk Classic.
"Our main focus is on managing ourselves," Bechard said. "We are preparing ourselves for tough competition as the season progresses."
Bechard said that despite a slow start in the Jayhawks' first match against Butler, they played well in front of a lively home crowd, defeating Butler three games to one.
The Jayhawks led Kentucky 14-12 in games one and three, but dropped both 16-14. Bechard said that getting to bed late the previous night may have hurt them.
Bechard said he was proud of the way his team battled back and praised the players for playing hard all weekend, regardless of whether they were winning or losing.
Setter Laura Rohde collected 136 assists and 21 kills.
"We had a late night and we're coming off an emotional win." Bechard said. "We just did not close out when we needed to, but Kentucky is a quality team and they deserve the win."
Kansas showed improvements defensively in the game against Eastern Michigan, posting 42 digs and 12 blocks.
"We saw growth in areas that needed it." Beard said.
Kansas middle blocker Amanda Reves led the Jayhawks with 44 kills this weekend.
The Jayhawks play San Francisco at 7 p.m. Friday at Allen Field House.
Joltin' Joe all caught up in excitement of home-run race
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Joe DIMaggio is fascinated by baseball's home-run chase.
"I think it's amazing," he told The New York Times in an interview published yesterday. "I don't understand the game now. All these home runs, but Hank Greenberg hit 58 home runs one year, Jimmie Foxx hit 58."
The 83-year-old Hall of Famer said he was caught up in the hoopla surrounding Mark McGwire and Smyma Sosa and their pursuit of Roger Maris and the home-run record. McGwire overtook Maris with home run No. 62 on Tuesday.
DiMaggio was asked about McGwire's use of androstenedione, the testosterone-boosting compound that is banned by the Olympics, NFL and NCAA but legal in baseball.
"All I ever did was ask Pete Sheehy for half a cup of coffee when I got to the clubhouse," the New York Yankees great said. "But there were a lot of half a cups. It stayed hot that way."
Speaking from Hollywood, Fla., where he was visiting patients at the Joe DiMaggio Children's Hospital at Memorial Regional Hospital, DIMaggio also talked about this season's Yankees team that has a chance to set the record for the most victories.
He warned that history is filled with dominant teams that failed to win the World Series
in 1942 we won 103 games, won the pennant by nine games and won the Series opener, then the Cardinals beat us four straight," he told The New York Times. "We weren't hitting and they had some good pitchers. Johnny Beazley beat us twice.
"In the last game we had the bases loaded with two out and he threw me a big curveball, but I hit a grounder to third base. I had seven hits in that Series, all singles."
DiMaggio also spoke of his current counterpart. Yankees centerfielder Bernie Williams.
"Like that kid," he said. "He plays the game to win."
DiMaggio batted .325 with 361 home runs during his 13-year career and hit in a record 56 straight games in 1941. The Yankees won 10 pennants and nine World Series with DiMaggio.

The U.S. Open
Potential realized: Davenport wins Open
Touted as one of America's finest young players after winning the U.S. Open junior championship in 1992, she had been unable to push the promise of her potential.
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Lindsay Davenport had been in tennis' waiting room a long time.
Except for a couple of doubles championships, Davenport had carried the label of a Grand Slam also-ran. Then came a dream summer that ended with a 6-3, 7-5-vic
tory over defending champion Martina Hingis for the U.S. Open crown, the title she's always craved.
“You'd hear,
‘Oh, she'll
never win,’
Davenport
said. "How can you tell the future? I'll just try my best and one day it will happen."
TENNIS
At the Open, it finally did.
The Open, in the end.
"The sight at the end of the tunnel of winning the Grand Slam was what kept me going." she said.
The joy of that accomplishment was hardly diminished Sunday when Davenport and Natasha Zvereva lost the women's doubles title to Hingis and Jane Novotna 6-3, 6-3.
For Hingis, it completed a doubles Grand Slam. She won with Mirjana Lucic at Australia, then with Novotna at the French, Wimbledon and U.S. Open, becoming only the fourth woman in history to complete the sweep.
For Davenport, it wasn't so bad,
even after a long night of celebrating.
"It was fun to be back out there," she said. "Normally you've got to wait a year to return back to the court where there are so many memories. I only had to wait a few hours."
Davenport is the Open's first American-born women's champion since Chris Evert in 1982. The significance was not lost on the 22-year-old from Newport Beach, Calif.
"No one's done it in a long time," she said. "I'm proud to be the first one."
Rafter victorious in matchup of Australians
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — It was "Aussie Rules" tennis yesterday at the U.S. Open, and Patrick Rafter had by far the bigger, meaner game.
Rafter retained his title with an awesome display of speed and accuracy, winning an all-Australian battle with Mark Philippissels 6.3-3.6-6.2-6.0.
Both players dived to the concrete courts and sent volleys rocketing across the net. But Rafter had near-
perfection to go with his power.
The third-seeded Rafter had just five unforced errors against the unseeded Philippoussis, whose usually overpowering serve became a liability. He had just five aces and 13 double faults, the last on the final point of the match.
Rafter won the final 10 games.
Rafter, who had to rally from a two-set deficit in the first round but never was threatened again in the tournament, won $700,000 and moved up to No. 2 in the world
rankings — just behind Pete Sampras, whom he defeated Saturday in the semifinals.
The match was tied at one set apiece and 2-2 in the third set when Rafter took command. After holding serve, Rafter moved to break point on an incredible point in which he raced around the court to return an overhead, a forehand into the corner and a drop shot.
Rafter then won the next eight games to close out the match.
Philippoussis, in his first Grand
Slam final, stayed in the match by saving 13 of 14 break points until midway through the third set, but Rafter converted five of his six break points after that.
Rafter faced three break points in the match and lost his serve only once. His serve was broken seven times in the seven rounds of the tournament.
As Australian flags waved in the stands, Rafter captured his sixth title of the year and improved his record to 25-2 since Wimbledon.

Dear Jayhawks,
CAMERON DAVIDSON
Have you been abroad? Did you ever get the chance to travel and see the world? Maybe some of you were lucky enough to travel while you were in high school, but the majority of you probably didn't. For me it was different because I grew up in Sweden which is very close to other countries. I remember when my parents took my brother and I along on bicycling tours in Denmark when we lived on a farm. I was five years old and my brother was two. We traveled on a tandem bicycle! What a sight that must have been! My brother sat in a basket in the front, then there was Dad and behind him sat Mom. Of course in those (old) days, there was not much traffic to talk about, so I guess this was a fairly safe adventure. I remember my first summer abroad in Denmark because of these bicycle tours on country back roads. And whenever I see a tandem bicycle I think of my family.
I also have memories of seeing chickens slaughtered and eating "long milk" on a plate for lunch. It was a milk product sort of like buttermilk but which formed long never-ending drips from the spoon. Yum! Not! It had a funny taste! I remember falling off a horse and knocking the wind out of my lungs as well as my Dad playing with my brother on the beach swinging him up in the air. Dad told me he could not do this with me
because I was too big. I was hurt and I'll never forget that! Too big! We swam on sandy beaches with deep holes in them formed by the under tow. I remember we had to be careful in the water. Yes, that was my first time abroad - att the tender age of five!
Many years later, after studying and living with families abroad, I came to the United States! You see, Sweden is a country where we have to grow up speaking other languages since no one else in the world speaks Swedish. So therefore, it is quite common that students go abroad both during the high school and university years to learn foreign languages. Well, I did all that and have the fondest memories of the families I stayed with in England, France, Germany and Italy. Many of my friends and I are still in contact after thirty some years and our children know and have visited each other.
When I came to the U.S. to teach French at a university I had a host family They gave me a bicycle which was my mode of transportation to and from campus for several years! It was an old Schwinn bike, one gear of course, with a big basket in the front to put my books in. Very practical! Can you believe it, I still have that bike! It survived all other bikes in the family! My girls have kidded a lot about it over the years but now they all want it!
Well, whether you travel by bike or not you should see the world! Now is the time to do it! And we who work in the Office of Study Abroad can help you plan ahead. You can get as many credits abroad as you would on the KU campus. You can get financial aid, too, and there are limited scholarships for those who meet the requirements. Come and talk to us in Lippincott Hall and visit our booths during our Study Abroad Fair in the Kansas Union on September 15! We look forward to helping you make the most out of your years at KU!
Sincerely,
Margareta B. O'Connell, Director

Learning Life's Lessons in Israel
Abroad in Israel, Again
i
by Jennifer Smith
Jennifer Smith at an entrance to Hebrew University of Jerusalem.
The idea of studying abroad first entered my mind during my freshman year. With the help of the Office of Study Abroad, I decided to spend the summer at Tel-Aviv University in Israel. Even before I returned, I decided I would study abroad again, but for a longer period of time, allowing for a greater exploration of Israeli culture. Two years later, I said good-bye to family and friends and boarded my flight to Israel. This time however, I would be living in both Israel and the Israeli-occupied West Bank. The excitement of heading off was mixed with apprehension. My apprehension was based on my plan to spend a semester at each of two universities and the idea of observing and participating in life on both sides of the conflict. I spent the fall semester at Hebrew University of Jerusalem and during the spring semester, I lived in Ramallah and studied at Birzeit University, a Palestinian University located in the Israeli-occupied West Bank. My decision to study at both of these institutions was based on my belief that I would better understand Israeli and Palestinian cultures and the conflict if I were to live within both. I felt that I would gain a greater understanding by observing first-hand rather than to forever gaze at them through the eyes of the media and the pages of books. I wanted to formulate my own opinions rather than assuming the ideas of others.
I spent the year living in two cultures - different from one another - and from American culture. Some things were easy to adjust to: different foods, being dependent on public transportation, and vegetable shopping at the Mehane-Yehuda Market. On the other hand, some things were more difficult: attending classes on Christmas Day, dealing with Bezeq Phone Company, and the attention foreigners sometimes attract in Palestinian society.
Towards the end of January and near the end of my time at Hebrew University, it snowed for the first time in five years in Jerusalem. The snow cleared the usual tense feel from the air in Jerusalem. Classes were canceled, and my roommate and I hiked around the city for the day. The snow had settled onto the Dome of the Rock and the walls of
Snow in Jerusalem.
the Old City.
During the cold and storms of February in Birzeit and Ramallah, friends and I would escape for an afternoon to Jericho. In the Jordan valley, it would be warm, sunny, and dry. We would climb up to the top of Mt. Temptation and picnic. The mount overlooks the area of Jericho, the Jordan river valley,
and across to the mountains of Jordan.
My classes at both universities were taught in English, but my world was in three - English, Hebrew and Arabic. I studied language at both institutions and took courses towards my Sociology and International Studies majors. I explored issues in Israeli society, Islam, women in Arab society, and Middle Eastern politics. At Hebrew University, I shared a dormitory room with an American student from New York. We explored Israel and Turkey together, and she explained Judaism and synagogue services to me. In Ramallah, I shared an apartment with two Palestinian women. We had many interesting and sometimes heated debates on the role of religion in Palestinian society, the development of the Palestinian Authority, and what the future might hold. I also learned to cook a lot of wonderful food.
And what did I learn? Well, a lot about myself. Adaptability. Independence. Decision making skills. To go with the flow and to not stress when things don't go according to plan (because they never do). I learned that washing laundry in a bucket rather than at the Laundromat saves money better spent on other things - traveling in Turkey for instance. I discovered that a year was a long time to spend away from family, friends, and my favorite coffee shop. Culture shock was even more difficult to deal with than I had ever thought. Most importantly, I met many individuals on both sides who are seeking a peaceful solution to the conflict and normal lives. I cannot wait to return.
Options in the Middle East
- Birzeit University
- Hebrew University
- Tel-Aviv University
- American University at Cairo
- Ben Gurion University
These are only a few of the options for study abroad in the Middle East through the KU Office of Study Abroad. There are no language requirements and students are able to study a variety of disciplines.

Not Sure Where to Start?
WHERE can I study?
Study Abroad programs are available in 20 different languages in locations throughout the world. Study in English is widely available, in 25 countries in 5 world areas. KU administers study abroad programs in the following countries:
The Americas: Argentina, Brazil Canada, Colombia, Costa Rica, Dominican Republic, Honduraş, Mexico Paraguay, Uruguay
Europe: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria Cyprus, Denmark, Estonia, Finland France, Great Britain, Greece, Germany Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Malta, Netherlands, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Russia Middle East: Egypt, Israel Africa CUte d'Ivoire, Kenya, Tanzania, Togo Zambia Australasia: Australia, Fiji, Hong Kong, Japan, Korea, New Zealand People's Republic of China, Philippines, Taiwan, Thailand
WHAT can I study?
Some programs focus on a particular field of study while others offer a general curriculum. Study Abroad participants come from all schools of the university, including: ArchitectureBusinessEducation EngineeringFine Arts Journalism Liberal Arts and Sciences Social Welfare
Most students are able to fulfill graduation requirements and maintain progress toward their degree while studying abroad. A few examples of discipline-specific programs include those for: Architecture-Art and Design Business Engineering Environmental studies Languages History International Business Economics Classics Education Social Welfare Humanities
Many semester and academic year programs allow qualified students with demonstrated language proficiency to choose from regular university course offerings.
WHAT about the cost?
Program costs vary, but studying abroad does not have to be expensive.
For instance, KU exchange agreements with universities in Costa Rica, United Kingdom, France, Australia, and with the International Student Exchange Program (ISEP) provide study abroad opportunities of great value at tuition, room and board costs close to those of staying on the Lawrence campus.
Students paying non-resident tuition will find that the cost of study abroad can be less than that of studying on campus.
Normally, federal financial aid is applicable to study abroad programs and in most cases KU scholarships and grants may be applied to the study abroad program fee.
Making Study Abroad Affordable: The NSEP Scholarship
Lola Muris with friends in San Jose, Costa Rica.
The National Security Education Program (NSEP) is a scholarship program for students studying abroad in under represented countries and/or under represented languages as determined by the U.S. Department of Defense. Scholarship recipients are required to perform a service obligation with an approved government agency for an amount of time equal to their term abroad. Detailed information can be found at www.iie.org/nsep.
I entered KU as a Fall 1994 freshman with many plans and desires. Of course, by Spring 1995, a number of my initial expectations had changed. Nevertheless, one desire remained strong: the desire to study abroad in Spain or Latin America.
I soon learned, however, that desire even when assuming the forms of a packed suitcase, a plane ticket, and a pocket translator—is not enough. Through my experience of applying for a National Security Education Program (NSEP) scholarship to study abroad, I realized that studying in another country requires months of academic, emotional, and financial preparation.
When I first heard of the NSEP scholarship, a scholarship sponsored by the U. S. Department of Defense, I thought of it as only financial preparation for study abroad. I had no clue as to how much work went into the applications of friends and fellow Spanish majors who had said, "Lata,
After taking my friends' advice and asking KU's Office of Study Abroad (OSA) about NSEP, however, I quickly discovered that the scholarship is a lot more than a one to two page application that translates to thousands of dollars. Actually, the application is closer to ten pages requesting not only academic transcripts recommendation letters, and biographical information but also language test scores, a Statement of Purpose, and an Academic Plan.
I got an NSEP scholarship, so the government is paying for all the expenses of a semester abroad! You should apply for one, too!"
By Lata Murti, Topeka senior
Grueling? Yes, especially for a first semester sophomore; but it's not impossible. I would even argue that the NSEP application process is essential to an enjoyable experience abroad. The process forces applicants to analyze themselves and their reasons for wanting to study abroad. It
also ensures that that initial desire to study far away from home is strong enough to endure a year's worth of paperwork and waiting.
Waiting, and the intense competition involved in the NSEP process, compels applicants to research additional options for financing their experience abroad. NSEP asks that its applicants complete a study abroad budget form." Filling out this form with Barbara Gearhart, the Office of Study Abroad's financial

credit awarded?
For most programs, upon return to KU and receipt of transcripts from the host institution abroad, grades are posted for KU equivalent courses on the student's KU transcript.
Through the Office of Study Abroad, students remain enrolled at KU, earn resident KU credit, and are awarded grades for credit earned while studying abroad. Students from most disciplines may earn credit to fulfill KU degree requirements.
To ensure continued progress toward a degree, an Academic Advising Form for Study Abroad, an outline of courses the student plans to take while overseas and the KU degree requirements that will be fulfilled, must be completed for admission to a study abroad program.
HOW do I apply?
To begin a search for a study abroad program, you are encouraged to visit the Office of Study Abroad, browse through the resource library and attend information meetings, then schedule a meeting with a study abroad advisor to identify the program that best fits your needs.
An application, including academic advisor's approval of intended courses of study, must be submitted for admission.
Admission requirements and prerequisites available fields of study, and competitiveness for admission vary from program to program. Early planning for study abroad will generally afford more options.
MUST I speak a foreign language?
You do not need to be fluent in a foreign language to study abroad. Several semester and year programs and many summer institutes are open to students with a minimum of language study.
Opportunities to study in English are plentiful, both in English-speaking and non-English-speaking cultures.
Of course, KU offers many study abroad programs for students with proficiency in the language of the host country.

advisor, allowed me to realize that I would have several personal expenses that NSEP would not cover. The form also allowed me to realize that my financial aid from KU would "travel" with me and thereby cover such expenses.
Even after informing me that I am a scholarship recipient, NSEP continued to prepare me for my time abroad: it required that I take a Spanish language test over the phone and that I send photocopies of the paperwork concerning my final travel arrangements. By the time I boarded a plane for San Jose, Costa Rica in January of 1997, I felt adequately prepared not just financially but also emotionally and academically - for my semester abroad.
Of course, no amount of advance planning, prepping, and budgeting could have prepared me for all of the new experiences I faced while actually abroad. NSEP, therefore, asks its scholarship recipients to complete and send several "progress reports" during their time abroad. Filling out these reports helped me record and evaluate the changes I was experiencing while abroad; the reports became my travel journal.
Now that I have returned, I find that NSEP still wants to prepare me-not for another semester abroad but for the job market. NSEP
requires that its scholarship recipients serve an organization of the federal government for the same amount of time as that of their stay abroad. Although I had never seriously considered working for the U. S. government before learning of the service requirement, I now look forward to the experience. After all, how many KU students could pass up an offer to spend several months in DC and simultaneously gain material for their resumes?
Yes, I must admit that I sometimes feel as though I have signed years of my life away to NSEP, but I don't consider these years to be wasted time.
NSEP helped in giving me the confidence and money I needed to be able to have a rewarding experience abroad; and I believe that one satisfying semester abroad is worth years of preparation at home.

"Mom, I need to hang up, I've got class at the Louvre today." The way I said these words, one would've thought I was on my way to Wescoe for an Art History class. But when I stood in one of the vast rooms of the world's largest art museum and gazed up at the wall-sized painting of The Raft of the Medusa, I knew I wasn't in Kansas anymore. This was Art History class in Paris, and I can tell you, I never had problems staying awake.

Senate gets no after-hours party with Loveline hosts
By Seth Jones Kansan staff writer
Lovettie is coming to the University of Kansas this Friday, and members of Student Senate are going to miss the after-hours party with Dr. Drew Pinsky and Adam Carolla.
Student Union Activities went to last week's Senate meeting and asked for $2,000 to co-sponsor the
event. At the meeting, Tiffany Crow, SUA Vice President of Alumni Relations, and Lindsey Gaston, Special Event Coordinator for SUA, told Senate members if they contributed the requested $2,000, 20 members of Senate would be invited to an after-show party
[Image of a person]
with Loveline's hosts.
Seth Hoffman, Nunemaker Senator,
said the invitation to the after-show
Senate voted instead to give SUA $1,000 for the event, and in doing so lost the invitation to the party. Senate would have been credited as "co-presenter" on all fliers and radio announcements, but now it is co-sponsor. Only "co-presenters" get to attend the party, this includes SUA board members and Special Events committee members.
party could be seen as a way to buy Senate votes.
"I thought the idea of offering invitations to members of Senate was weird," he said. "If the $2,000 would have lowered ticket prices from $10 to $6 or $5, I'd be much more likely to support it, bu"

that is not what happened."
Partha Mazumdar, Graduate Senator, did not understand why Senate should contribute $2,000.
"If we would not have given SUA a single dollar, Loveline still would come," He said. "Basically, they just wanted us to give them money. And I like SUA, but I don't see Loveline as a show we need to sponsor."
R. J. Woodring, Nunemaker Senator, presented the bill to Senate.
"I still feel it's a worthwhile venture, and it'll help people want to know us better," he said. "But as far as inviting people to the reception, that's just the way SUA works. The more money you contribute, the more perks you get."
Gaston said that if the after-hours program seemed like a ploy to get Senate's support, it was taken the wrong way.
He also said making a profit was not SUA's primary concern, but that it still was possible to break even.
"The only reason we're having the reception afterward is because they offered," he said. "Originally, the program was supposed to take place in October, but all those dates were canceled. We were fortunate in that we were the only place that got to reschedule. Because we lost a month to promote, the producers of the program offered to have a reception with the hosts for the inconvenience."
Amini Scholarship Hall may get mirror
Couple might donate money for women's hall
By Sarah Hale
Kansan staff writer
In 1988, the University of Kansas developed a wish list of possible projects that would be created around campus.
One of these projects included two scholarship halls that would sit side-by-side as mirror images.
That or this project was completed in 1992 when Amini Scholarship Hall opened after a $1 million donation from K.K. and Margaret Amini. The second building has remained only a design.
Though there has been no formal announcement, Ken Stoner, director of student housing, said yesterday the Aminis were serious about donating money for the construction of a women's scholarship hall to sit adjacent and to the north of the current Amini Hall.
the building, but he said it likely would not be Amini.
The Aminis have not told Stoner the name they would choose for
Though the discussion of the project is in the preliminary stages, Stoner said the proposal is going to be sent to the Board of Regents for approval and a budget would be established.
Tom Hutton, University Relations director, said he was aware of the possible construction of a scholarship hall but did not know specific details. He said if the new hall were built, it would be similar in design to the current 16,425 sq. ft. Amini.
Stoner would not say how much money the Aminis were considering donating.
Hutton said formal assurance of a donation from the Aminis would bring a formal announcement of construction plans.
"There's always some caution about announcing plans until the money is in hand," Hutton said. He said the Aminis always had been honorable donors.
In addition to the $1 million donation for Amiini Hall, the Aminis also gave an unknown amount to the University for the construction of the KU Vietnam Memorial.
building, if built, would be comparable to the first with some minor alterations.
Stoner said that Amini's sister
"There are going to have to be some changes because the building needs to be turned and it will rest on a hill." Stoner said.
Gould Evans Associates LC, 706 Massachusetts St., designed both buildings in 1991. If the new scholarship hall were to be built, Stoner said the original design might be used with necessary alterations.
The construction company that built Amini men's hall would not be used for this future project because it no longer exists. Stoner said the contractor retired.
Because of the plan's early stages, Stoner said if the donation went through, he hoped it would be finished by the fall semester of 2000.
The possibility of another scholarship hall comes amid celebration of the Aminis' 50th wedding anniversary, which was last week.

ing accounts. The bank offers a free checking
account in conjunction with its new KUID contract. The account is set up so that KUIDs are Commerce ATM cards. Commerce opened four ATMs on campus and a branch in the Kansas Union.
Loug Saville, manager of Commerce's Iowa Street Branch, said the accounts have been a tremendous success.
"The numbers for free checking accounts are up at least one and a half times that of last year," said Savile. "A lot of the students are drawn by the fact that there is a branch located right on campus."
Commerce's campus branch manager Matt Wyatt, said the checking accounts had been appealing to students from out of the area and to those without transportation.
"We got the ball rolling by introducing the accounts to freshman during orientation this summer," Wyatt said. "Then we had time to spend with the students, explaining to them the benefits of having an account based on campus."
Capitol Federal Savings and Loan offers a student oriented account called True Blue checking. Like the Commerce accounts, there is no minimum balance and no fees.
Barbara Carswell, first vice president at Capitol Federal, said their account was competitive. She added that her bank had seen no major impact on their free checking accounts from Commerce's offer to KU students.
"We like to think that we look at things in a proactive way," said Carswell.
Carswell also said the locations of their branches were a plus for students.
"We have two locations," she said. "One branch serving the west side of campus and the other serving the east side." Mercantile bank is currently working on a free electronic checking account targeting students.
"We realize the importance of convenience for students and this account will meet those needs," said Janet Toebben, Mercantile bank senior vice president.
Although the local accounts are easily accessible, many still choose to bank elsewhere.
Anne Cooley, Topea junior, said she does not find the local checking all that convenient.
I bank at Commerce in Topeka and I'm just not interested in transferring my money to a Lawrence branch," said Cooley.
Heather Yates, Olathe junior, said it was better learn how I don't want to worry that if I lose my KUID, I lose my

WICHITA LAWRENCE
CAMPUS Bicycle accident victim regains consciousness
The University of Kansas student injured in an Aug. 23 bicycle-car collision begins rehabilitation today after spending more than 20 days unconscious at the University of Kansas Medical Center.
Dustin Heath Barnes, Larned senior, was upgraded to fair condition late Sunday night or early yesterday morning, Med Center staff said.
Barnes had spent about three weeks in critical condition in the intensive care unit.
Ramona Kramer, Barnes' grandmother, said Barnes had been unconscious since he was rushed to the hospital but he had now regained consciousness.
"He's doing pretty good now," she said. "He's just been gradually improving."
Lawrence police said the accident happened because Barnes failed to obey a stop sign on Seventh Street and collided with a car trying to turn left in front of him at Seventh and Florida streets.
Dog attacks, bites groin of Lawrence resident
A 19-year-old Lawrence man was bitten in the groin by a dog Aug. 8 in the 800 block of east 11th Street.
The man, a Quality Towing employee, was walking on the sidewalk when an Australian Sheppard came up and bit the man in the groin. Lawrence police said.
The man received treatment at Lawrence Memorial Hospital following the attack.
The owner of the dog was issued a citation for not having control of his dog, and the dog was quarantined.
"The victim went to the hospital and got stitches in his scrotum," said Lawrence Police Sgt. George Wheeler.
Police said rabies was their primary concern in keeping the dog.
The police typically quarantine a dog when it bites someone to make sure the dog does not have a disease.
Police locate, then lose suspect in recent attack
After spending 10 days trying to find the second suspect in the recent battery of a Lawrence High School student, Lawrence police located the youth and then lost him.
The suspect, 17, was arrested during the weekend. He was at his arraignment hearing when he bolted from the courtroom, ran west through the hall out the west door
and fled north from the Douglas County Courthouse, 111 Eleventh St.
Between five and 10 officers, both Lawrence police and Douglas County Sheriff officers, searched the area north of the station but were unable to locate the 6' 2" African-American male dressed in blue jeans and a striped shirt.
Police were looking for him in connection with the recent, possibly gang-related assault of a Lawrence High School student.
The incident took place Sept. 2 at Lawrence High School when a 16-year-old student was attacked by two 17-year-old students, Lawrence police said.
"The victim was punched in the eye and fell to the black top," said Lawrence Police Sgt. George Wheeler.
Police said one of the attackers stomped on the student's head, leaving a shoe print.
The victim received nine stitches above his right eye.
Police had been looking for the two suspects since the attack. The victim and the suspects knew each other and had been involved in previous altercations, police said.
The first suspect was arrested Thursday after a school resource officer took him to the police station.
The first suspect was charged Friday afternoon with aggravated battery.
Police said the second suspect also would be charged with aggravated battery.

STATE Kansas gas stations may be forced to close
WICHITA — Hundreds of Kansas gas stations, many in rural areas, may decide to close rather than meet environmental regulations that take effect at the end of the year to protect soil and water from leaking gas.
The Environmental Protection Agency rules require that underground gas tanks must be protected from rust and corrosion so that gas cannot leak out.
Complying with the rules will cost operators a minimum of $10,000 to install corrosion-proof devices. Tanks that must be replaced cost about $20,000 per tank.
The Kansas Department of Health of Environment estimates that about 550 gas stations with underground storage tanks will shut down.
Gasoline tanks used to be above ground years ago. But then they were buried because of the concern of fire and explosions.
now many of the tanks are rusted and leaking, the KDHE says.
Water supplies have been polluted in 15 towns, including Salina, Hays and Scott City.
Tank owners have known about the regulations for 10 years, but many chose not to do anything about it. The rules take effect at midnight on Dec. 22.
The KDHE, in charge of enforcing the rules, will have a grace period until March 1 so that companies authorized to work on tanks will not face a last-minute blitz. But major oil companies say they will not sell gasoline to stations that do not meet the December deadline.
NATION Appeals court overturns 1996 murder conviction
DETROIT — A state appeals court has overturned the murder conviction of a man who shot a gay admirer for revealing a secret crush on him during a 1995 taping of The Jenny Jones Show.
Jonathan Schmitz faced up to 50 years in prison for the murder of Scott Amedurea in a case that focused attention on "ambush television" and the tactics that TV producers use to bring guests onto davtime talk shows.
In its ruling released yesterday, the Michigan Court of Appeals said a lower court judge should have let Schmitz's lawyers remove a juror before the trial began.
The error was harmful enough to overturn the second-degree murder conviction, the court ruled.
Schmitz, who is heterosexual, said he was humiliated when Amedure, 32, told him that he had a secret crush on him during a March 1995 taping of the Chicago-based talk show, which never aired.
When the two returned to Michigan, police said Schmitz shot and killed Amedure at his Orion Township mobile home.
He was convicted in 1996 of second-degree murder and was sentenced to 25 to 50 years.
jury selection prior to the trial took three days. On the final day, Schmitz's lawyers asked the judge to remove a juror. Oakland County prosecutors objected, saying that because the defense had not made any objections to the juror the day before, they could not remove the juror then.
Judge Francis X. O'Brien sided with the prosecution.
But the appeals court said Schmitz's attorneys should have been allowed to remove the juror at any point in the jury selection.

Biology club to introduce students, staff
Biology majors who want to get to know their professors and fellow students better outside the classroom can participate in the forthcoming student-faculty mixer being organized by the Biology Club.
The third annual mixer will be held at 4:30 p.m. today outside the west entrance to Haworth Hall.
"Biology is one of the most popular majors on campus, and this is an excellent opportunity for students, especially freshman planning to seek degrees in biology, to make acquaintances with professors and fellow students," said Jason McKinney, president of the Biology Club.
The school has 70 faculty members and at least half of them will be coming, said Dean Stetler, director of undergraduate biology.
Biology is one of the largest majors on campus with at least 1,500 undergraduates having declared biology as their major. Stetler said.
Greg Burg, assistant director of undergraduate biology, said the department offered nine majors.
"Students majoring in biology do have to make some choices down the road," Burg said. "It is an excellent opportunity for students to seek help and feel comfortable with their professors."

Ice T to rap about old days and new ways
By Angola Johnson
Kansan staff writer
---
KU students have the chance to get a taste of Ice T.
Ice T will speak at 7:30 tonight at the Lied Center. The controversial rap artist's topics will include censorship, racism and surviving on the streets of Los Angeles. Tickets are still available at the Student Union Activities box office in the Kansas Union. Contributed photo.
Rap artist Ice T will deliver a speech at 7:30 tonight at the Lied Center about censorship, racism, violence and surviving on the streets of Los Angeles.
Cody Simms, forums coordinator for Student Union Activities, said the rapper's lecture would focus on his book. "The Ice Opinion."
"He's going to tell his life story about growing up and eventually his big break as a performer," Simms said. "He's led a life that's different from the mainstream, because he wasn't a studio-made artist. He was a pimp and a gangster first."
Tickets are $2 with a KUID and $4 without. As of yesterday, 1,200 tickets were available from the SUA box office in the Kansas Union.
Simms said that the musician was not trying to glorify a violent lifestyle but that he was touring colleges, high schools and prisons to justify his previous violent nature.
"A lot of the early hardcore rap music was violent, and ice T was really the beginning of the whole underground rap scene." Simms said. "Most of his lyrics reflected how angry he was, and now I think his purpose is to step back and explain why he did this."
The rapper may present "The Ice Opinion," but KU students had differing opinions.
Alfred Harris, Kansas City, Mo., senior, said that Ice T did not need to justify
THE ICE OPINION
**Who:** Rap artist Ice T
**What:** Will speak about violence, censorship and racism
When: 7:30 tonight
Where: The Lied Center
Cost: $2 with a KUID, $4 without. Tickets will be sold leading up to the time of the event. Approximately 1,200 are available.
or explain anything.
"If anything, he's giving back," Harris said. "He understands that not everyone has the social or economic status. He's trying to encourage students to hang in there and on doing what you need to succeed."
Carl Arnold, Omaha, Neb.
senior, said that he was attending tonight's event.
Arnold said he was curious to see what the controversial rapper would speak about.
"He'll be speaking to young adults and adults, so
I'm sure he won't have any problem saying what he feels," Arnold said. "I think he'll be talking about what he's learned. What he may have represented in the past may not be what he represents now."
J. D. Cox, Douglass senior, said the rapper created an image to simply make money.
"It's hard to see him as a hard-core gangster," Cox said. "He did the rap thing for a while, then he went to heavy metal. I'm just not too interested in his message, although I'm sure he'll say he lived a violent lifestyle."
This will not be Ice T's first appearance in Lawrence. The rapper performed at the Granada Aug. 30. Simms said he promoted tonight's event at his earlier performance.
he seemed to really enjoy performing in a small venue like the Granada, and he did a really good job of promoting tonight's event," Simms said.
Budig shines light on glitch with projectors
The University of Kansas has kicked in more than $10,000 to fix up the classroom projectors in Budig Hall.
By Lix Wriston
Kansan staff writer
The three auditoriums in Budig have one thing in common: each has had only two of its three projectors available for class use this semester.
The projector in 120 Budig was fixed this weekend and is now available for use. The other two projectors, in 110 and 130 Budig Hall, are not yet fixed.
Lamps in the projectors burned out, so Jim Vequist, Hoch Complex director in Budig, ordered replacements. Since then, Vequist said he noticed the power supplies in each projector also had quit working.
The University has purchased five new lamps, costing $1,500 each. Three new power supplies also were purchased by the University, which cost $950 each.
"primarily, the projectors go out because we have to replace the lamps each year," Vequist said. "By the time the new lamps came in, we realized that we had failure of the power supplies, so once the new power supplies come in, we will be able to get the projectors up and running again."
The new power supplies arrived Thursday. Vequist said one of the three projectors should be working today, and a second power supply should be installed within the next week.
The projectors allow professors to post course notes and use a special camera to magnify articles. Vequist said he had not received complaints from
Vevquist said he had not received complaints from teachers.
Grover Everett, chemistry professor, said he has survived the situation.
"I don't think it's been a problem because I generally use two out of the three in everyday operations," Everett said. "It has not been a disaster, but it's just a little nicer to have three."
Four projectors have burned out since summer, Veuist said.
"So far, I don't see it as being a problem because my chemistry teacher put notes on one screen and experiments on the other," said Lisa Logan, Overland Park junior.
Brian Anderson, Olathe sophomore, said he saw a problem.
"Without three projectors, I am forced to sit on one side of the room so that I can see the other two screens." Anderson said.
Tim Shafelt, distinguished professor of business, also said that vision had been impaired.
"I've been able to work around it, but I think it probably has caused a few problems for some of the students," Shaftel said.

Advertisements mistakenly say homosexuality is a lifestyle choice
This has been a disheartening year for political and cultural conservatives. National conversation has been dominated by the president's personal and moral weaknesses. Republicans and Christian conservatives doubtlessly anticipated that "we, the people" would be shocked into a popular moral revolt at the president's behavior. It didn't happen.
It should come as no surprise, then, that conservatives have chosen an easier target for their rhetoric in this fall's elections.
in August, a group of ultraconservative political and social groups (the Family Research Council and The Christian Coalition among them) placed advertisements in major U.S. newspapers such as The New York
Christian organizations' claim of curing homosexuality sends the wrong message.
Times, The Washington Post and USA Today concerning homosexuality. Gays and lesbians could change, the ads said. No longer were homosexuals doomed to remain in that lifestyle. The controversy around making someone straight is absurd and should be refuted by the public.
sexuality and that any homosexual who dies unrepentant will feel the fires of hell.
exodus International, one of the many Christian groups that claims to help homosexuals change their orientation, believes that it is a sinful lifestyle choice. These Christian groups state that God condemns homo-
Their argument misses the mark in one crucial way. Why would any individual choose a life of possible rejection? Who would volunteer to be driven from their family by unsympathetic parents? Are people lining up in droves to lose their homes, jobs and children? Such an assertion is ridiculous and insulting.
The people who placed these ads may think that they are doing homosexuals a favor by offering them a way out of gay life. But they also are doing a favor for the worst sort of bigots and haters in our society. At its best, religion appeals to the better aspects of our nature. At its worst, it appeals to our fears, just as these ads do.

Towers parking lots still inadequate
For the past few years, Jayhawker Towers has been closing its parking lots for renovation. Because of this, there has been a lack of parking for its residents.
During the 1996-97 school year the upper level of the lot west of the complex was closed. Many residents were forced to park farther up Daisy Hill. At the time, Templin Hall was being renovated, leaving an entire parking lot open for overflow. The following summer, the lot east of the complex was changed from a two-level to a one-level parking lot. In the fall of 1997, residents were faced with fewer parking spaces by the towers and the loss of the extra parking lot to Templin residents
This year, the parking lot west of
the towers is now in use, giving residents 59 more spaces for a total of 365 parking spaces. However, those who live in the apartments still are facing the same dilemma. After 10 p.m., the lots surrounding the buildings are full, leaving drivers with few options. Some park illegally on the ends of the rows, making the lots hazardous. Others seek a space at the back of the residence hall parking lots and must walk in poor lighting back to the complex, risking personal safety. Others park at the Burge Union and wake up at 6:45 a.m. to move their car before the parking department begins its fundraising activities.
After multiple renovations, students have trouble finding parking spaces at night.
10 pay $75 a year to park two blocks away from one's residence is ridiculous and potentially dangerous if it occurs after dark. Because of its location, it is difficult for the towers to expand its parking lot. However, those who design the lots should keep these issues in mind. A multilevel parking lot would be able to hold many more cars in the same amount of space. The parking department should make Jayhawker Towers residents a top priority in renovating and maintaining the parking lots.

Student fees decision will not threaten groups
A recent federal decision, Southworth v. Grebe, from the 7th U.S. Circuit Court, has certain Student Senators trembling from fear that they may no longer be afforded
PETER MAYER
Rodger Woods
opportunity to hand our money to campus organizations like candy on Halloween. The decision, contrary to the panicked squawking of Partha Mazumdar and David Perico in Tuesday's Kansan, will not divest Student Senate of control of student fees.
The case of Southworth w. Grebe is based on the objections of University of Wisconsin students to use of mandatory student fees to
support student organizations that engaged in political activities outside the University.
pinion@kansan.com
A cursory reading of the case shows that the ruling would not affect most student organizations on this campus. Furthermore, the organizations mentioned in the case were singled out because of what they did with the money, not their ideology.
The rationale behind the court's decision was based on a long standing corollary to the First Amendment that the individual has the right not only to speak, but also to remain silent. The court wisely ruled that forcing one student to pay for another to engage in political speech was a violation of this right.
erans Association.) He goes on to say that Senate has rules for organizations requesting financing. This is where the difference lies. Although I make no claim to be an expert on Senate funding rules, I do know that funding of political organizations is not allowed, nor are organizations that serve predominantly non-students. Moreover, I'm certain that Student Senators, in their wisdom, would never spend student funds on a primarily political organization.
This week's quiz will be in essay form: 1) Under the ruling in Southworth v. Grebe, should Student Senate finance the new organization "Students for Handguns," assuming they meet normal Senate rules for funding?
Give yourself partial credit if you said, "it depends on what they do with the money." More points for, "if the organization brings speakers to campus, provides a social organization for gun owners, and otherwise attempts to educate the student population about the joys of handgun ownership. Then it would be fine for Student Senate to fund such an organization." Maximum points if you added, "they should not be financed from student fees if they intend to use the money to lobby state legislators in favor of concealed-carry legislation, print literature for 'pro-gun' political candidates, or send part of the money to the NRA." The call to action made by the columnists on
Most students would agree that student organizations tied to political organizations should not receive Senate funding. In fact, Senate rules do not allow funds to be distributed to the likes of KU Libertarians, College Republicans or KU Young Democrats. Why? Because to do so would require one student to financially support the political aims of another with whom she or he may disagree.
The call to action made by the columnists on Tuesday is unwarranted and irrelevant.
The ruling doesn't create a threat to Student Senate's power to extort money from students that choose to attend the University of Kansas so they can later give the money to organizations of their choice. It merely means that Senators must now exercise some care to ensure that the money is used for the education of all students, not to promote the political agenda of a few.
That's what was going on at Wisconsin. The named organizations were using monies derived from student fees to publish materials supporting specific political candidates, to lobby state legislators, arrange political rallies at the state capitol and, in one case, to pay dues to a national political organization. In a few instances, only a small percentage of the organizational membership were actually students
Furthermore, much to the chagrin of a few senators (both student and state types) they cannot, by resolution or passing "pre-empive" laws, overrule the Constitution. As the court stated in their ruling, "The First Amendment trumps the democratic process and protects the individual's rights even when a majority of citizens wants to infringe upon them."
Partha Mazundar, in his column on Tuesday, claimed that The Associated Students of Madison and KU Student Senate give away money basically the same way; on a value-neutral principle. (He doesn't define this and apparently this statement wasn't meant to include last year's Senate debate on financing of the KU Vet-
Of course, all this could be avoided by reconsidering the way student organizations are given money. Perhaps it is time to consider a checkoff plan or some other means of distributing funds that would avoid the issues altogether. Although Southworth v. Grebe won't mandate a change in the way Student Senate must do business, hopefully it will change the way we think about funding.

Gone are days when dinos could be any color
It finally happened to me. I suppose I knew that it would. It didn't come on some day of personal significance, which was when I had expected it.
It didn't come on my birthday or on the day of my high school reunion.
Instead, it showed up on someone else's birthday, as I drove by the elementary school my friend attended — even though the elementary school I attended and the high school we went to together had failed to move me just minutes before. Maybe that makes perfect sense after all. On your birthday, you're ready for it. You expect it and you're on guard. And, as much as

Cynthia A.
That feeling simply because I hated my childhood. I've never wished that I was a kid or a teenager again, because what that means to me is a total lack of control in my own life. I liked being a juvenile committed to a mental ward — no one believed anything you said. You have no civil rights whatsoever, and the only exit is that magical age at which the law says you're an adult. For me, that was 17. I've never looked back.
you may talk about it at those times, it doesn't show up. The fact is, the first time at least, it's got to sneak up on you. It's got to be a surprise. You can't be prepared for the first time you get that feeling of "longing for the good-old days."
So I guess that what I was longing for was hope, innocence and unbridled enthusiasm. When I was 10, I could've been anything — a doctor, a lawyer, a nuclear physicist, an astronaut, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, U.S. representative to the United Nations, a starship captain, a dragon rider, a Jedi knight, an Olympic athlete, the first woman in the NFL, the six-million-dollar man, the bionic woman, Wonder Woman or even Superman. Anything I could imagine, I could be.
When you're a kid, your dreams don't have to be realistic. Your visions of the world can be yours alone. I recently saw some pictures colored by a group of kids. It was a coloring book page of a dinosaur, and at the bottom of each page was a space for the name and age of the child coloring it. There was a definite pattern to the pictures. The youngest children used any color they wanted and made little attempt to color in the lines. The younger, school-age kids made an attempt to differentiate the dino from
the blades of grass, but all were done in wild colors. By the time kids hit double-digits, the grass was green, the dino was some appropriate color for a lizard and the lines were very carefully followed and nary a wax mark strayed outside.
toward you, your favorite Today, I know that I'll never become a Naval aviator or an NFL quarterback. I'm pretty sure I'll never be in a math or science field, and there is no doubt in my mind that I'll never be a Jedi Knight. I'll never live happily ever after with my first love. And although we both know we're happier as friends than we ever would've been as lovers, I can't help but wonder occasionally how it would've felt to be 16 and wildly, mutually in love forever like Romeo and Juliet.
So I suppose that the longing I felt was not for any actual events in my life, but for the days when there was nothing wrong with a canary yellow, magenta, indigo, lime-green dinosaur standing in chocolate-brown, flesh, sky-blue grass with an indistinct division of where one started and the other ended. Sometimes I think that anyone who tells a kid that dinosaurs aren't supposed to be that color should be arrested for grand theft of innocence. The day that they color the grass and the dinosaur separately is the day that girls realize they'll never be Superman and boys figure out they'll never be mothers.
By the time all the colors are correct and every thing's in the lines, the kids with C's in junior high math know they'll never be nuclear physicists, and the kid who puked when the cat got an abscess knows he or she will never be a doctor. And by the time you can't be bothered to take time to color the picture, you know that you'll never "fall in love and live happily ever after." The older you get, the narrower your list of options becomes.
The first time you fall in love is incredible, a gift of the greatest pleasure. I envy more than I can express the person who feels that joy without ever feeling the pain of losing that love. And although I still believe in love, what it means now is work and mortgages and emotional baggage and "GWF seeks GWF for friendship/LTR. No drugs, no smokers" rather than the "my heart will go on" feeling.
Yes, I know that realistically, dinosaurs are not indigo and that all in all I rather like my life. Also, having my first love as a good friend for the last 15 years is for the best and that — unlike my childhood and adolescence — I wouldn't trade most of what's happened in my life since I turned 17 for anything. But, but maybe, just maybe, it's a good thing after all to remember what it felt like when 64 crayons just weren't enough.

Web yields evolution of news businesses
Internet provides unlimited access to raw information
By Chad Bottos Kanson staff writer
Sex. Lies. Politics
These words are not the plot of a recent novel. They are the words found all over the Internet right now brought to you by respected news sources across the country.
John Broholm, associate professor of journalism, said the public could expect more of this unfiltered, raw information in the years to come.
Gordon Fitch, professor of business administration and director of technology for the School of Business, said the Internet had become a powerful force in America, changing the way the public gets its news, conducts education and does business.
Broholm said the Internet had not been so
Traditionally, news was reported in edited form as seen through the eyes of a reporter. It also was difficult for news outlets to provide information on-demand to the public.
much of a revolution as it had been an evolution of the news business.
The Internet has helped evolve news into what it is today, Broholm said. News can be pulled up in raw form, as in the case of Independent Prosecutor Kenneth Starr's report about President Bill Clinton.
"It's a revolutionary step ahead in the ease of access, amount and speed of obtaining information."
Government sources and news companies previously had much more control over the content and interpretation of news, he said.
sources have adapted by creating an Internet presence.
Education also has been changed by the Internet, said Broholm and Fitch.
People also can access the information they want on the Internet when they want it rather than waiting for television news or a daily paper.
"To be seen as being at the forefront of education, you have to be online." Broholm said.
Newspapers, television news and other news forms remain viable. The Internet simply augments these sources. Brotholm said.
The Internet has impacted research and distance learning especially, he said.
Fitch said traditional media
Research can be done more quickly by students who have massive amounts of information at their fingertips via the internet. Broholm said the challenge was for students and educators to discern credible sources from advocacy sources.
Rural areas can provide advanced courses or foreign languages using the Internet for distance learning. Students in rural schools may not be able to take these courses locally.
Gordon Fitch Business administration professor
Broholm said
Broholm said. Fitch said the University was taking advantage of the Internet for distance learning. He is teaching a telecommunications management class that includes a student from Los Angeles.
Fitch said the format had worked well this semester and in the past. Last semester, a student from Buffalo, N.Y., took the class.
Video cassettes still are used for the lecture portion of the class, but students post their assignments and participate in discussions on the Internet.
"It's a revolutionary step ahead in the ease of access, amount and speed of obtaining information," Fitch said.
There are even "virtual" businesses, Fitch said. These are companies whose primary source of customers is from the Internet. They do not maintain offices open to the public.
Fitch said business had a lot of attention to the Internet. He said almost every major corporation in the country had a Web site for public access, with the primary use being marketing.
"Businesses are increasingly substituting bits for atoms." Fitch said.

Indigenous Nations Studies Program to begin offering classes in January
By Carolyn Mollett
Karen staff writer
Kansan staff writer
The new Indigenous Nations Studies Program will begin offering classes in January when its director, Donald Fixico, arrives at the university of Kansas.
"We are lucky to find a good leader," said Akira Yamamoto, professor of anthropology and linguistics.
Fixico is a professor of history at Western Michigan University. He said he wanted to help the students he recruited for that university to graduate before he left for the University of Kansas.
The KU program will be interdisciplinary, and it will offer Master of Arts degrees in Indigenous Nations Studies.
"From all angles we are going to be working with students in the program as well as in the community." Yamamoto said.
Fixico said the program would examine different views of the world. He said some indigenous voices were borderline extinct because of the process of global assimilation.
"It's a very important process as we begin to understand the nearidentical experiences Indigenous People have had."
Michael Yellow Bird assistant professor of social welfare
tion.
"The general direction I foresee is to try to explain the unheard national voice in Indian Studies," Fixico said.
Michael Yellow Bird, assistant professor of social welfare, will teach courses in the program. He said the program was unique because it would study and develop contacts with Indigenous Peoples from all around the Western Hemisphere.
"It's a very important process as we begin to understand the near-identical experiences Indigenous People have had," Yellow Bird said.
He said the program's name was a move away from colonizers' terms like Native American. Yellow Bird said anyone born in the Americas was a native to America.
we've taken a 180-degree turn here to say we're Indigenous People. We're nations," Yellow Bird said.
The University of Kansas will further its existing relationship with Haskell Indian Nations University through the Indigenous Nations Studies program, Fixico said.
Graduate students have three track options for studying the nations: general Indigenous Nations Studies, Museum Studies and Sovereignty Development. There also will be core classes required of all students.
Fixico said an admissions committee was being formed to establish admission requirements.
He said the program still had details to be worked out before next semester, so students could not officially be enrolled in the program yet. But he said there had already been a lot of inquiries.
New GTA Coalition union organizer comes to Kansas with Wildcat past

The Graduate Teaching Assistants Coalition is concentrating on nurturing new leadership, beginning with a new organizer.

Boosting membership is one principle goal that the union has always focused on, Beal said.
He said he worked about 26 hours a week and considered the position a neat change.
"It's nice to walk into where a union exists." Beal said.
Beal said he is confident in the coalition's future.
"They need to step back and realize just how strong they are," Beal said. "I just want to remind people that GTAC hasn't run into anything they can't hold up to."
Horowitz said he was confident in Beal's ability.
"He is clearly someone who is able to communicate," Horowitz said. "He is a naturally talented organizer."

Donations make it easier to look at Earth
Money bought software to study rock layers, sponsored fellowships
By Liz Wristen
Kansan staff writer
Studying the earth's rock layers will become easier for University of Kansas students in the geology department and geologists at the Kansas Geological Survey.
The University bought seismic software during the summer with a $400,000 donation given in April by Seismic Micro-Technology of Houston. The software is used in petroleum exploration to study underground geology.
Graduate students at the University will have the opportunity to learn more about the software through graduate geology courses this semester, said Tim Carr, senior scientist at the Kansas Geological Survey, at 19th and Iowa streets.
The software gives geologists a picture of the ground below by setting off a vibration at the earth's surface. The vibration sends sound waves into the ground, which reflect off the underground rock layers and then travel back to the earth's surface where they are recorded.
"One of the big things in geophysics is getting a 3-D visualization of the earth," Carr said. "This new software is used for looking at the interior of the earth and allows students to see a 3-D visualization of it."
Rex Buchanan, associate director of the Kansas Geological Survey, said that different rocks reflected the vibrations in different ways and that the results could provide information on the location and nature of underground rocks.
Carr said this information was useful for determining the location of fluids in the earth.
"We shoot energy into the ground which reflects off the layers of the earth, and we use that date for processing and figuring out where the fluids are, like oil, gas and water," Carr said.
The software will be beneficial to students because it will allow them to use similar tools and software applied to gas, mineral and environmental industries, Carr said. By using the software, students will be able to focus on locating gas and minerals in the earth.
The University received a smaller donation of $40,000 in February from Chevron-Mobil to support geophysics fellowships at the University. Rick Miller, geophysicist and chief of exploration services at the Kansas Geological Survey, said the petroleum companies are sponsoring the students to help them learn more about the specialized processing software used in their studies.
"I think that the donations we have received are an external recognition of the level of work we do here," Buchanan said. "I think it's good, because it gives attention to the Survey and the University and makes companies recognize us."
WHERE THE MONEY WENT:
- The University of Kansas geology department and the Kansas Geological Survey received a $400,000 donation in April from Seismic Micro-Technology of Houston to purchase seismic software.
- The software will allow students and faculty to send sound waves into the earth that will reflect off underground rock layers and provide a picture of the underground geology.
- The University also received a $40,000 donation in February from Chevron-Mobil that will be used to sponsor geophysics fellowships for graduate students.

Band to return to Lawrence after tour
By Augustus Anthony Plazxa
Kansas staff writer
Back home from touring the country, Shaking Tree is trying to prove that little-known independent bands can spark a magical feeling for music fans.
Shaking Tree is a band made up of four KU students who took the fall semester off to tour the country.
They returned to Lawrence two weeks ago after being on a month-long tour, taking them as far as Seattle.
gig them as his star. Dain Estes, lead singer from Lawrence, said his main goal as a musician was to change people's minds about independent music that has yet to be discovered by the mainstream media.
"I want to prove to other people that you can go see a band for the first time, and you can get caught and like them," he said.
Shaking Tree was scheduled to play in Lawrence on Friday night. However, the show was canceled after an electrical fire in the alley behind The Bottleneck caused a blackout in the building.
The band performed a limited acoustic show on the sidewalk outside the building for about 50 fans who staved.
Shaking Tree had not played an acoustic show for more than a year.
we used to play some acoustic shows every Sunday night in Kartas City," said Aaron Hetherington, drummer from Lenexa.
Shaking Tree surfaced from a local music scene wealthy with talent. Bands like Paw, Frog Pond and Outhouse have emerged from the area to gain success.
Estes said Shaking Tree's music differed from the rest of the local music
scene, because it was not as hard.
He said the band's music did not fit any specific category, but he thought the style could be compared to Toad the Wet Sprocket.
Casey Lee, Lawrence junior, has seen Shaking Tree twice.
"I thought they were very good," he said. "I liked their catchy rock' n' roll music."
The band said the time on the road may have given them some exposure but also provided life-long memories.
"I was telling someone the other day that it has been cool, and it would be great if things keep building and building. But even if things fall through, I will still have stories to tell the grandchildren," said Ian Burns, bassist from Overland Park.
Hetherington said the band was planning to play its next show in Lawrence at the end of October.

Coleman brings Kansas power with program
Kristi Fillott / KANSAN
By Randy Withers
Kansan Sportswriter
When you say the words "college football," images of Saturday afternoon battles and national champions come to mind.
Seldom do thoughts of just how much work it takes to compete at the Division I level accompany them. Now more than ever, strength and conditioning play a major role in determining the success of a football program.
Enter strength and conditioning coach Kevin Coleman. As the Kansas football program strives for improvement this fall, his main focus is what goes on before football season ever begins.
The right moves
"Kevin's a great addition to our staff," said coach Terry Allen who hired Coleman in the Fall of 1997. "He's a guy that brings a lot of expertise about weight training, strength and conditioning. It's (weight training) extremely important. I think that was one of the real pluses about being able to break out and get a football-only strength coach. Kevin really fit the bill there, and we're very pleased to have him."
In Coleman's program, power agility and acceleration take precedence over speed.
Most Division I teams emphasize training techniques that are well suited to the sport of football, but Kansas has gone a step further with Coleman's direction. Coleman's training mimics the athletic movements used during the course of a football play.
"Speed is important." Coleman said. "But football players need more acceleration than speed. Speed isn't a huge component. Agility is. Agility is the ability to change directions quickly, like Barry Sanders."
To increase acceleration and agility, players do explosive training during the off-season and preseason on Mondays and Wednesdays. The explosive training focuses on triple extension movements — movements of the ankles, knees and hips. Tuesdays and Thursdays they work on improving strength by using standard resistance exercises.
Simulating game conditions, even the amount of rest between drills mirroring the break between plays in a game, is important to Coleman.
"If a drill takes five seconds, we'll give them, say, 35 seconds to rest," Coleman said. Players conditioned in this fashion are at a distinct advantage on game day.
"You may be strong, and you may
be able to do repeated amounts of intense exercise, but you're not explosive," Coleman said. "Through triple extension, you build power. The athletes have belief in the program, they've seen it work."
Triple extension
The ideas of triple-extension movements and explosive ground based training are not new to college athletics. These principles have been integral parts of Husker Power, the strength program at the University of Nebraska, since its inception in 1969.
"These principles were researched and implemented into the Husker Power program while Kevin Coleman was at Nebraska," said Boyd Epley, Nebraska strength coach. "He benefited from them as an athlete at Nebraska, and now the Kansas athletes are benefiting from them."
"There is no way to determine how much impact the Husker Power program has had on Nebraska football. I can tell you that Nebraska was 6-4 in 1967 and in 1968. Bob Devaney allowed us to start Husker Power in 1969 and the football team has won 299 times since," Epley said.
The University of Nebraska is not the only high-profile football program to benefit from this type of program. Kansas State's Powercat Strength program is built along the same lines.
"It is the best way to train athletes, in my opinion," said Rod Cole, Powercat strength and conditioning coordinator. "Strength and conditioning is just one piece of the puzzle to success in athletics. Strength and conditioning is important and crucial, but
there is no way of giving a 'quantifi-
able amount' to its contribution.
Coleman determines whether players are improving with off-season tests of athleticism. This years preseason testing was held on Aug. 10. The coaching staff tested players in the 10-yard dash, pro-agility drill and vertical leap. The emphases of these drills were on explosiveness and the ability to change directions quickly.
The drills are predicated upon the idea of an athlete executing them at his highest level.
"For me, I believe that anything, no matter what you do, if it's worth doing, it's worth doing 100 percent," Coleman said.
The man
Coleman began his career as a graduate assistant at the University of Nebraska, known across the country as the mecca of power and strength training. Coleman served as a graduate assistant under Coach Epley for four and a half years.
As an undergraduate at Nebraska, he was a back-to-back NCAA indoor shot put national champion in 1992 and 1993, a five-time Big 8 shot champion, and a four-time All-American.

Commentary
Referees, beer ads annoy TV viewers
On a Saturday full of frustration, some joy and comedy was brought to me by Coor's Light
Let me refresh your memory: A Russian basketball player is clumsy and in the way. His teammate mispronounce his name, which provokes the Russian to spell out his name Krebs, K-R-E-B-S. The teammate yells angrily, "I can spell, I'm from here."
To make a long story even longer, the Russian nails the game winner and the player that yelled at him wants to buy him a Coors Light. The Russian then spells Coors and everyone is happy. What were the marketing geniuses thinking? I can see them in a boardroom when someone lays the commercial script on the director. The director leaps out of his seat and says, "Yes, that's amazing, beer can bring nations together. I love it!"

This is just plain stupid. S-T-U-P-I-D.
mind when I think of the referees' performance at this weekend's Kansas vs. Missouri football game.
For the third time in two weeks the referees changed the momentum of a game.
The no-call occurred when Missouri free safety Harold Pierse intercepted Kansas quarterback Zac Wegner's pass to tight end Jason Gulley after throwing Gulley to the ground.
At that point the Tigers were holding on to a 27-23 lead.
Unfortunately, the coaches cannot comment on the performance of the referees, but Coach Allen got his point across when he said, "It's a costly no-call. That is the best as I'm going to call it. But that's two weeks in a row, and I'm tired of it."
Well put, Coach. I can feel your frustration, brother
We all know the game was marred with its low points so let's take a look at the some bright spots.
Congratulations to Henri Childs for his first career touchdown in the form of a 79-yard punt return. He was criticized last week for his decision not to field a punt. Redemption is sweet.
Congratulations to David Winbush for a career-high of 99 yards and to Mitch Bowles for his 39-yard touchdown run. That was one of the best runs I've seen this year, awesome.
The KU offense led by Wegner and running backs Winbush, Bowles and Julius Bruce looked unstoppable at times.
The Kansas offense, much to the surprise of everyone except me (remember I called them All-Americans a couple of weeks ago), racked up more than 300 yards in a balanced attack.
This gives the fans much to be excited about. I believe, at times, the Jayhawks can play with everyone in the league, but the mistakes must stop.
Now I'm starting the KU football bandwagon. Mark my words, it will be another month until the 'Hawks lose. Hop on, it will be a fun ride.
Enough musby stuff.
If I ever had the chance to build a football program, I would model it after the K-State program. The 73-7 murdering of a school nobody can remember screams CLASS ACT.
Have you seen K-State coach Bill Snyder's new book entitled "How to Murder Really Terrible Teams at Home and Then Lose to Nebraska for 30 Years Straight"? It's really good and funny.
Then when I think things can't get any worse, my beloved Chiefs lose.
Some weekends I think it's best not to get out of bed, but I don't want to talk about it.

Telephone survey to help determine need for new KU recreational center
By Sam Mellinger
Student Senate will conduct a survey in the next month to better understand campus opinion about the possible construction of a new recreation center at the University of Kansas.
A planned November renovation of Robinson Center that will replace five racquetball courts with a research laboratory has some students wanting a new facility.
"I get a lot of complaints about this," said Kevin Yoder, student body president. "To me, it's something this campus needs, but we need to work with students, really find out what they want."
Kansan sportswriter
A telephone survey will be conducted by the Institute for Public Policy and Business Research, an independent research unit located on campus.
The group will use a random sampling
Scott Kaiser, student body vice president, said a rough draft of the survey had 14 questions and would probably take about five minutes to answer.
of 300 to 400 people, producing a 2.5 to 3 percent margin of error with a 95 percent confidence level.
Yoder said he hoped the survey would provide a better idea of whether students wanted services that required a new facility, or whether Robinson could be improved to meet student needs.
Results from the survey will be used to develop a proposal that Yoder will present to the Senate in November.
"We need to find out what students want to see," Kaiser said. "For people who go to recreational facilities, what do they want to do? How much are they willing to pay?"
Supporters of a new center are hoping for a different result than what happened two years ago in a similar effort.
In the only single-referendum vote in school history, students voted down a proposal for a $21.5 million center by almost a 2-to-1 margin.
"The problems are getting worse, it's not even staying bad," Yoder said. "I think if we do our research and truly represent student opinion, we can get this done."
Kaiser recently visited a facility at Kansas State and said Robinson did not compare.
"It's really nice," Kaiser said. "It's really popular, really modern, you can use it from 6 a.m. to midnight, and when I went, no one was waiting in line.
"I think it's sad that we have a worse facility than K-State," said Brad Lyons, Steamboat Springs, Colo., junior, who has a membership to the Lawrence Athletic Club. "I think Robinson's too small. A new facility would be more convenient."

Rugby team works to rid themselves of stereotypes, build on traditions
Players say sport open to everyone
By Dan Forguson
Kansan sportswriter
Rugby, a sport that some think is confined to overweight, beer-drinking airheads, is attempting to make a name for itself at the University of Kansas.
The participants also are trying to rid themselves of the typical rugby stereotype.
The club, which was started in 1964, is trying to build on the strong rugby tradition on Mount Oread while being competitive and having fun.
Both the men's and women's rugby club said they thought that getting involved and having fun was the most important thing.
Women's team member Kristen Leff, Iowa City, Iowa, senior, said the women's club had a varied level of athletic ability and that many played simply for exercise and to have fun.
"We're not an elitist club," she said. "If you show up to practice, you are going to get a
Leff said experience was not necessary to join the club.
chance to play."
"I didn't even know what rugby was before I joined the club," Leff said. "I played once and loved the game, loved the people and I got hooked."
The women's club has only been around for seven years and has come a long way from its humble beginnings.
humble beginnings.
"When I was first a part of the club, we didn't even have enough players to field a full team," said Leff, who joined four years ago.
Other club members said they became involved for the fringe benefits.
Stephanie Bishop, Lawrence junior, said that rugby provided opportunities unavailable through other sports. Last April, Bishop traveled to Ireland with another women's club team to compete internationally.
"I don't see too many people involved in other sports that get opportunities like that," Bishop said.
Anybody can play the growing sport of rugby, Bishop said.
"It's a fun and challenging sport for anybody," she said. "You don't necessarily have to be the biggest or the strongest to play."
Men's club member and women's team coach John Wiley, Prairie Village graduate student, said the University's rugby tradition was one of
the main reasons he decided to attend school here.
"I'm pursuing two goals while I'm here, in my rugby and my education," Wiley said. "When I came here, I knew that's what I wanted to do."
Both teams have scheduled tournaments, including the Heart of America Rugby Tournament in Kansas City Oct. 3 to 4.
Along with the Heart of America tournament, the women have scheduled a November road trip to Houston to compete against more than a dozen rugby clubs from the Midwest.
Although both teams have begun practicing, new members still can join.
There is a $30 membership fee for new members and a semester charge of $55 to renew the membership. The $55 covers all referee, membership and USA Rugby affiliation expenses.
Student's can sample the club for two weeks before deciding whether to join or pay any expenses.
"Rugby is a very inclusive sport that you can pick up anytime in life," said Wiley. "We don't have cuts, so if you come to practice, you'll play on the weekends."
Students who are interested in joining the club or who want more information can contact Wiley at 749-3881.

"Kevin was a model athlete. He was one of the most dedicated athletes to ever wear a Husker uniform. His work ethic was unmatched," Coach Epley said.
Coleman graduated in 1993 with a degree in exercise science and earned his master's in 1995. He also holds a degree in health education.
As he approaches the first anniversary of his hiring, Cole-
man's philosophy is reflected in the progress that his players have made.
"It's been exciting," Coleman said. "There's a great bunch of athletes here. It's great to see an athlete come in as a freshman and make tremendous gains."
From the testing done during spring practice, to that on August 10, Coleman's program paid dividends for many Kansas football players. Defensive backs Michael Allen, Jahmal Wright and Ocasio Cofeld, linebacker Hanson Caston, defensive lineman Nate Dwyer, running backs Mitch Bowles and
"Kevin was a model athlete. He was one of the most dedicated athletes to ever wear a 'Husker uniform. His work ethic was unmatched."
Boyd Epley Nebraska strength coach
David Winbush, and offensive linemen Michael Lies and Justin Glasgow all showed significant improvements in athletic performance.
Ultimately, preseason testing doesn't mean much, though. Player performance in games is more important.
"I'm not training my guys to test good. My job is to increase the athletic performance potential of our athletes," Coleman said. "When it comes to the success of a program, you have to have great assistants, a great academic staff, which we have, a great medical staff, which we have...it's the whole support staff that's involved."

And of all those runners, Snyder feels the one he will see Saturday is the best.

Williams: Will be Texas' weapon against K-State.
Texas will bring Ricky Williams to Manhattan for the mid- September conference game but the
Longhorns will not have quarterback Richard Walton. Snyder feels badly about that, but not as badly as Texas coach Mack Brown.
Walton is sidelineled four to six weeks with a broken middle finger on his throwing hand. Redshift freshman Max Applewhite will replace Walton and face a Kansas State defense that has allowed fewer yards than anyone in the country — notättigative present.
player, let alone one so young.
"Richard really understood our offense," Brown said yesterday. "He's taken all the snaps with the first team since we got here. This isn't a good week for having to be conservative
Walton: Sidelined at least six weeks with an injury.
against this great defense."
Walton was injured when he was knocked down after completing a 16-yard pass in the fourth quarter of last Saturday's 49-31 loss to UCLA. He put his right hand down to brace himself, and the middle finger fractured.
Applewhite played the rest of that game, completing 3-of-5 passes for 35 yards and directing two scoring drives.
"He's very similar to Richard, just not as old and not as experienced." Brown said. "The problem that you have with a young quarterback is that sometimes it's easier to come off the bench and play, because you haven't had that build-up all week.
"My experience is that it's tough to play the No.1 defense in the country when you've had a week to watch it. I might not let him watch film this week."
More of the Longhorns' offensive load likely will fall on Williams, who led the nation in rushing and

scoring last season and has run for 375 yards in two games this fall. Snydler thinks Williams can handle it and joked that maybe the only way to stop him would be to put a 12th or 13th defender on the field.
Snyder: Looking for ways stop the Texas running game.
"We're facing
We're facing a marvelous athlete," Snyder said. "He's a young man who can do so many things — bounce the ball outside, run downhill, he's an inside guy, an outside guy, he has speed, he has power, he can do it all. I imagine he can probably throw it and punit as well if he had to.
I don't recall anybody that can play with the explosiveness and vision that Ricky seems to play with. There's been some great running backs we've played against, but ... this is a very special young guy."
Williams is not the only Big 12 back putting up good numbers this season. The league has the nation's top three rushers this week and four of the top eight.
Missouri's Devin West leads the nation with a 222-yard average after running for a school-record 319

yards in a 41-23 win against Kansas.
The other Ricky Williams, the one at Texas Tech, is second with a 210.5-yard average, and his Texas counterpart is third at 187.5.

up to eighen after running for 244 yards in the Cyclones' upset of Iowa. He is averaging 156.5 yards a game.
"This might be as good a
year as any for running backs in the Big 12, or Big Eight Conference for that matter, at least in my tenure here," Snyder said.
Walton is among several Big 12 quarterbacks who are hurting. Colorado's Mike Moschetti bruised some ribs in last Saturday's 28-21 win against Fresno State, and coach Rick Neuheuis does not know if he will be ready for this week's game with Utah State.

Home run derby continues
Everyone but Sosa is getting souvenirs of homeruns 61,62
The Associated Press
CHICAGO — Sammy Sosa's going to have to rely on his memory for his historic day, because most of the mementos went quickly.
His jersey? Off to the Hall of Fame. His hat? Going right next to Roger Maris and Mark McGwire's in the hall. And the balls he hit for Nos. 61 and 627 Forget it. The fans who got them are apparently looking for cold, hard cash.
"How do you know what it's worth?" said John Witt, who caught No. 61 and was reportedly offered a five figure sum for it.
The St. Louis fan and groundskeeper who wound up with McGwire's 61st and 62nd home run balls immediately gave them back. No one contacted the Chicago Cubs to offer Sosa back the balls, team spokesman Chuck Wasserstrom said.
Unlike when McGwite neared Maris' single-season mark of 61 homers, the Cubs said major league baseball did not specially mark balls for Sosa.
When No. 62 salwed over the left-field fence at Wrigley Field, it set off a mad scramble among the hundreds of fans crowding Wave-
land Avenue.
lank Avenge.
"I caught the ball, and 50 people landed on top of me. One guy bit my left hand and wrestled the ball away," said Moe Mullins, whose hand was bleeding. "People tried to help me catch the guy, but the cops took him off in a squad car."
The man, whose name was not immediately available, was taken
to a police station near Wrigley Field, said Chicago police Sgt. Mary O'Toole. The man, described as being in his late 20s, left the
CUBS
police station a short time later, she said.
"We got him out of there because we thought he was going to get his behind kicked," she said. "We brought him over here for his own safety.
"The story is changing now every minute. It's a big mess. The guy who has it is not the guy who started out with it."
Mullins later filed a police report about the incident.
When Sosa heard fans were fighting to get the ball, he chuckled
"If I wasn't a player, I'd be fighting, too, for that ball," he said.
ing, too, that can. Sosa didn't say whether he wanted the balls back, but he has a history of letting fans keep them. When the woman tracked down No.56, which tied Hack Wilson's NL and club record, offered it to him, he autographed it and returned it.
He did take No. 60, giving the fan four autographed balls in return
Sosa did look a little reluctant as he turned over his bat to the two representatives from the Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, N.Y. He gave them a long look and kissed the natural wood-colored bat before finally sliding it into a green bag.
"give bad. "I don't want to give that bat from today," he said earlier. "I feel great for that bat."
Sosa's bat and jersey were to go on display today as part of "The March on Maris" exhibit. The bat, which he used for home runs No. 58-62, will be placed alongside the bat McGwire used for No. 62 and the bat Maris used to hit his 61home run.
The hall also got the gold number "3" that was placed on the Cubs' manual scoreboard Saturday after Hita击金 60, a three-roman homer.
("McGwire and Sosa" are tied, said Jeff Idelson of the Hall of Fame. "As far as we are concerned, they're both worthy of recognition."
McGwire is back in play after spasms, no home runs
The Associated Press
ST. LOUIS — Mark McGwire was back in the lineup. He just didn't look like a home run king
A day after leaving a game at Houston early because of minor back spasms, the St. Louis Cardinals' slugger was a quiet 2-for-4, taking few healthy swings Monday night in a 7-3 win over Pittsburgh.
McGwire had a two-run single in a four-run second innning off Jason Schmidt (11-12). He has just three singles in 18-at-bats in six games since hitting homer No. 62 and has been caught by Sammy Sosa.
Against Schmidt, McGwire struck out in the first inning on a checked swing and grounded to first on a checked swing in the fourth inning. In the sixth inning, he had a rare single to the right off Todd Van Poppel on another awkward, incomplete swing.
As a precaution, Cardinals manager Tony La Russa said he probably would not use McGwire in both games of Tuesday night's doubleheader against the Pirates.
McGwire canceled his scheduled pregame news conference, but La Russa and teammates said his quick recovery had nothing to do with Sosa's pres-
ence alongside him in the record book.
In batting practice, McGwire appeared to be his old self with eight homers in 16 swings. Two of them reached the upper deck, and a third hit a window in the Stadium Club just below the top deck.
Still, he was probably happy The last time McGwire had back spasms, on June 1 in San Diego. he missed three games.
Still, he was probably happy just to be playing.
Jose Jimenez (1-0), making his first career start, held the Pirates to four hits and one run in seven innings. He walked five, including Abraham Nunez three times and struck out three.
ALPS
McGwire: has not hit a home run since last Tuesday night.
Delino DeShields was 2-for-4 with a two-run double in a fourrun second inning that put the Cardinals ahead 5-1, and two steals. In the fifth inning, J.D. Drew had a sacrifice fly and
Jimenez, who struck out trying to bunt in the second inning and finally made contact on a sacrifice in the third inning , drove in a run with a groundout for a 7-1 lead.
Tim Laker homered in the Pittsburgh ninth. Schmidt, who has lost three straight decisions, lasted five innings and allowed 10 hits and seven runs.
Olympic officials condemn andro use
SOEUL, South Korea International Olympic Committee officials are concerned that baseball slugger Mark McGwire is sending the wrong message by using the performance-enhancing substance androstenedione.
The Associated Press
The IOC added the musclebuilding compound to its list of banned substances last year under the category of anabolic androgenic steroids.
Andro, as it is known, is sold over the counter as a dietary supplement in the United States and is not banned by the NBA or Major League Baseball. It is prohibited by the NCAA and the NFL, however.
McGwire, who hit his 62nd home run last week to break Roger Maris' single-season record, denied he was doing anything wrong. He said andro was perfectly safe and legal and was used by many other players in the league.
Andro came to the public's attention this summer when McGwire said he had been using the product for the past year.
But IOC officials, gathered in Seoul for executive board meetings, said the use of andro should be prohibited in all sports.
Anita DeFrantz, who as IOC vice-president is the highest-ranking American in the Olympic movement, said she was worried about the moral example set by McGwire
example:
"I worry children will think,
'OK, here's how you break all the records.' What they don't know is how hard you still have to work," she said.
DeFrantz said she also had concerns about the long-term health effects of andro.
"It's not regulated. It's not considered anything the FDA regulates. I don't want kids to be taking this stuff, or adults. We don't know how people react to it. That's scary," she said.
Androstenedione is classified as a "precursor" to testosterone, the male hormone.

Casualties keep mounting as more quarterbacks fall
Aikman, Elway Johnson leave with injuries
At this rate, the NFL might have to hold a midseason draft to find more quarterbacks.

This week, three of the best — Troy Aikman, John Elway and Brad Johnson.
— went down with injuries.
A i k m a n 's injury was the worst — a broken left collarbone that

water when sharks are around," the Bills' Rob Johnson said Sunday
after being sacked eight times in a 13-7 loss at Miami.
The big one Sunday was Aikman. A week ago, as Dallas beat Arizona 38-10, Aikman ran for two touchdowns as he was given more freedom to scramble in Chan Gailey's new system. This week it backfired. Aikman landed on his shoulder during a run and is now gone for at least a month, maybe two.
So Jason Garrett, primarily a third-stringer in his six-year career, is now the starter. He completed 14 of 19 passes for 113 yards against Denver, but it was primarily in garbage time.

Minnesota's Brad Johnson also was hurt without contact. He limped off the field after throwing a pass in the fourth quarter at St. Louis. Rand Cunningham replaced him and threw the winning touchdown.
Cunningham, a longtime starter for Philadelphia, could be playing for a while.
"We're concerned about Brad's ankle," said Coach Dennis Green. New Orleans' Denny Wuffelf
who did not produce a point in two starts last year, produced 19 in place of Billy

The severity of the injury was surprising; Johnson left the locker room without crutches

EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. — Minnesota Vikings quarterback Brad Johnson broke a bone in his right leg during a 38-31 victory against the St. Louis Rams and could be out several weeks.
returning Sunday to Minneapolis.
Johnson was hurt on a play after right tackle Korey Stringer was penalized for a false start.
"I was hit high and low." Johnson said. He stayed in the game for one more play but then went to the bench.
He was replaced by Randall Cunningham, who will start Sunday against the Detroit Lions.
Last year, Cunningham replaced Johnson as the starter after Johnson had a season-ending neck injury.
"I have as much confidence in Randall as I do in DoB," said Cris Carter, who scored the winning touchdown Sunday on a 19-yard pass from Cunningham with 2:09 left.

Discipline options open for Congress
Censure could be Clinton's punishment
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The House of Representatives concluded its 1996 ethics investigation of Speaker Newt Gingrich with a reprimand and a $200,000 penalty. Now, a fine or some form of rebuke short of impeachment is among the options being considered for President Clinton.
"There's going to be some sort of sanction," said Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-R Utah, Sunday.
"The question is, what
from peach to censure to rebuke to condemnation, or what?" Hatch said.
In impeachment a majority of the House
Censure is a formal condemnation of behavior, but it carries no legal penalty and requires only a majority vote. "Rebuke," "con-
demination or "reprimand" are interchangeable terms; a method to convey displeasure without any legal consequence.
would have to vote to impeach him, then two-thirds of the Senate would have to convict.
In Gingrich's case, the reprimand carried a fine, after he admitted supplying the House Ethics Committee with inaccurate statements about using tax-exempt organizations to advance his political goals.
Clinton: Reprimand is likely.
Congress has impeached a president once, Andrew Johnson in 1868. He was acquitted by one vote in the Senate and served out his term. President Nixon resigned in 1974 rather than face almost certain impeachment for the Watergate scandal.
The House has conducted censure proceedings 36 times, the last three for allegations of sexual misconduct. Rep. Dan Crane, R-II., and former Rep. Gerry Studds, D-Mass., were censured in 1983, and Rep. Barney Frank, D-Mass., was reprimanded in 1990 after a censure resolution failed.
The Senate has conducted censure proceedings nine times, most recently in 1990 when Sen. David Durenberger, R-Minn., was denounced for financial misconduct.
Congress is known for shaming members into resigning. The House did in 1989, when then-Speaker Jim Wright resigned after ethics problems, and in 1996, when Sen. Robert Packwood quit amid allegations he sexually harassed women.
Wallace remembered for racism, politics
The Associated Press
MONTGOMERY, Ala. — George C. Wallace walked with a bounce and flashed a smile bordering on a smirk when he was a noisy presidential candidate and archemy of civil rights crusaders.
By the time the former Alabama governor died Sunday, he had been humbled by the pain and paralysis of a 1972 assassination attempt and politically transformed. He had recanted his racist stand and hoped
for a different place in history.
He wanted to be seen as a Democrat who helped bring on the modern conservative movement, not just for his segregation battle and attempts to keep blacks out of all-white public schools.
"I think he should be remembered for more than race," said biographer Stephan Lesher. "But he'll always be stained by race."
wanace, 79, died at a hospital of cardiac arrest, after appearing to recover from a blood infection.
George Wallace was born Aug. 25, 1919, in Clio, Ala. He lost his first race for governor in 1958 when his views on race were moderate compared to his rival, John Patterson.
Wallace: Alabama governor passed on Sunday.
When he won four years later, Wallace was a segregationist who would
stand outside the all-white University of Alabama to block the enrollment of two African Americans.
It launched him into the national spotlight and, in 1964, Wallace ran for President in a handful of primaries against President Lyndon Johnson. He launched a full-scale bid in 1968 under the American Independent Party. He won five Southern states and 46 electoral votes.
Wallace drew a visceral reaction from supporters and rowdy protests from student foes. He dismissed them and said he was standing up for state's rights. He said his fight was against federal government intruders, not African Americans.
In 1972, Wallace was the early leader in the Democratic presidential primaries. At a shopping center in Laurel, Md., on May 15, 1972, Wallace plunged into a crowd of well-wishers to shake hands. Suddenly, a blond man in dark glasses lunged forward with a gun.
"The next thing I knew, I heard five firecracker-sounding pops," Wallace recalled later. "I felt no shots, but I felt myself falling. I attempted to move my legs, and I knew immediately I was paralyzed."
He was hit five times. One bullet jammed against his spine.
Arthur Bremer, former busby from Milwaukee, was convicted in the assassination attempt.
The day after he was shot, Wallace carried Maryland and Michigan, but his presidential campaign ended, and so did his old political stand and style. Wallace lost his final presidential race in 1976 to Jimmy Carter.
FBI counterintelligence nabs 10 Cuban spies
Surveillance dating back to 1995 indicates all 10 members operated with code names and had escape plans and arrest alibis, according to an FBI affidavit filed as eight men and two women made their initial court appearances.
The Associated Press
MIAMI — Ten people were charged with spying for the Cuban government by trying to penetrate U.S. military bases, disrupt anti-Castro groups and manipulate U.S. media and political groups, federal investigators said yesterday.
The Cuban spy cell targeted the U.S. Southern Command, which runs U.S. military operations in Latin America and the Caribbean, MacDill Air Force Base in Tampa and the Boca Chica Naval Air Station in Key West, the FBI said.
Gonzalez has been linked more recently to Ramon Saul Sanchez's Democracy Movement, which sails flottillas in the Florida Straits to protest Cuban government actions. Jose Cardenas, spokesman for the Cuban American National Foundation in Washington, said the accused spies had infiltrated Cuban exile groups, including
Congressional sources said the arrests, made without incident Saturday, were timed to avert an operation planned by the suspects, but provided no details.
Among those accused is Rene Gonzalez, formerly affiliated with the Miami-based Cuban exile group Brothers to the Rescue, which files mercy flights between Florida and Cuba. The group uses small U.S. registered aircraft to search for rafters fleeing Cuba.
Brothers.
The 10 were to make their first court appearances later in the afternoon, facing charges of espionage, conspiracy and acting as unregistered agents of the Cuban government.
CANF, an exile group based in Miami, did not immediately return two calls seeking comment. Brothers founder Jose Basulto had left for court and could not be reached
Four men, including three Americans, were killed in February 1996 when they were shot down by a Cuban MIG fighter jet over international waters. The men were aboard two Brothers planes, and soon afterward federal officials looked into whether spies played a part in the shooting.
Juan Pablo Roque, a former Cuban air force pilot and double
agent, infiltrated the Brothers group before returning to Cuba. He said he passed information about Brothers to the Cuban government.
FBI director Louis Freeh called U.S. Rep. Ileana Roa-Lehtinen at her home on Saturday to inform her of the arrests, said her spokesman Juan Cortinas.
SCOTT LAW SYSTEMS
Ros-Lehtinen, a Cuban-born Miami Republican, wrote the FBI in June requesting a briefing by the agency's counterintelligence section on two types of activities by Cuban officials in the United States.
She said she was concerned about a significant increase in travel by Cuban officials to Florida and New York for private meetings and an "inordinate number of meetings that Cuban government officials have been holding with major U.S. corporations and industry giants."

Ice T speech goes uncensored
(USPS 650-640)
Controversial rapper actor speaks frankly
By Angola Johnson
Kanson staff writer
It was freedom of speech to the fullest extent.
Rap artist and actor Ice T gave an uncensored lecture last night at the Lied Center in front of about 900 people. The rapper spoke about subjects ranging from politics to profanity.
When Ice T walked onto the stage, he warned the audience that his dialogue would be hardcore.
"These words are not profanity
"These words are not profanity — it's slang," he said. "These words are exclamation points, and I'm going to be using a lot of exclamation points tonight."
The rapper, who has produced controversial recordings, such as Cop Killer and O.G. Original Gangster, said free speech did not exist.
"Everybody is censored in some way or another," he said. "You can say anything you want, but there will always be ramifications from other people.
ICE T said that the mass society misunderstood the meaning of the song and that he received backlash from political leaders, such as Dan
"That was a protest record against police brutality, not killing innocent cops," he said. "I'm never going to apologize for making that record because I know what it was about."
Regarding his music, Ice T said what was shocking 10 years ago isn't as shocking as it is today because the public is more aware of the issues.
Angela McAllister, Manhattan senior, said she had no idea what to expect from the controversial rapper before the show but that afterward she was impressed.
"He's actually pretty intelligent
and articulate," McAllister said. "He really grabbed my attention when he talked about how cautious you have to be in the entertainment business."
Erica Van Ross, Kansas City, Kan., senior, said she came to the lecture because she wanted to see how the crowd would react to the musician's blunt nature.
For the most part, the crowd responded positively, said Cody Simms, forums coordinator for Student Union Activities.
"He's really entertaining," Simms said. "He takes serious topics and presents them in a funny way."

Band sounds off on MU fans' conduct
By Melody Ard
Kansan staff writer
Some University of Missouri fans found an unconventional use for whiskey bottles and other items during Saturday's football game.
As the University of Kansas marching band was preparing to take the field for the halftime show of the Kansas vs. Missouri football game, fans sitting in the Missouri
student section pelted the band with various objects, including oranges and Jim Beam bottles, said Kim Reed. KU color guard member.
"When we were coming out under the stadium behind our bench, they just started throwing things at us and yelling vulgarities," she said. "They had glass bottles and oranges and Naya water bottles filled with god-only-knows what."
Reed was hit by a glass bottle, which left a small cut on her foot. Although other members of the Marching Jayhawks were hit, she said no one was seriously injured.
Rob Willard, University of Missouri student body president, said that he wasn't surprised by the actions of the fans, although he said they were inappropriate.
For feedback on the Missouri vs. Kansas football game, see page 4A
"The people who pelted the KU band were sheer drunken idiots."
Willard said.
Reed said she was surprised by the shower of objects, but she thought the public announcement before the band took the field may have given the crowd the idea to

String of auto thefts leads to $8,000 in damages
By Keith Burner
Early estimates put the loss at nearly $8,000. Police said that figure would rise when more accurate estimates of the damage were finished.
Seven KU students' cars parked in a two-block area east of campus were burglarized Monday morning, Lawrence police said.
Kansan staff writer
"It looks like what we've got is a string of auto thefts that appear to be related," Lawrence Police Sgt. George Wheeler said.
After midnight, seven cars parked in neighboring lots at Tennessee Street and Gower Place were damaged. Stereo equipment was stolen from six cars.
car.
Police said they didn't know why nothing was stolen from the seventh
In that lot, 130 compact discs, three CD players and two walkie-talkies were stolen. All the cars were damaged, Lawrence police said.
The total loss to the four students who had cars parked in that lot was $3,574.
One of the students, Jennifer Simpson, was getting ready to go to her 9:30 a.m. class when she discovered the theft.
rour of the burglaries occurred at a parking lot at 1433 Tennessee St., near the Kappa Alpha Theta sorority house.
"I went out, and everything was gone," said Simpson, Tulsa, Okla., sophomore. "I ended up missing my first class because I had to wait for the cop to get there."

She said that whoever had broken into her car had first tried to enter by removing the molding around one of the windows. When that didn't work, the auto burglaries just smashed one of
the windows.
"I felt violated." she said.
A block to the south on Gower Place, in a parking lot near the Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority house, two other cars were damaged and burglarized for a loss of $1.400.
In that lot, a Saturn and a Jeep were damaged when stereo equipment and several CDs were stolen from the vehicles. Lawrence police said.
The last car to be broken into was parked half of a block to the south of the Gower lot burglaries.
From that car alone, the burglaries took two speakers, 55 CDs, an amplifier and a $130-pair of Oakley sunglasses. Lawrence police said. The damage and loss to that car was nearly $3,000.
Lawrence police still are investigating the burglaries but have no suspects.
Low numbers to force sorority to close doors
Alpha Xi Delta will stay active until next spring
"Despite the continuing efforts of the National Fraternity, local alumnae and undergraduate members, our recruitment efforts at the University of Kansas did not produce enough new members for the Chi Chapter to sustain itself financially," said Kimberly Starr Serio, the Alpha Xi Delta national president, in the formal written announcement.
By Sarah Hale
Kansan staff writer
The national headquarters of Alpha Xi Delta sorority announced Monday that the University of Kansas chapter would close at the end of the academic year because of low membership.
The sorority moved out of its house this year because of financial difficulties and leased it to Zeta Beta Tau fraternity, said Bill Nelson, coordinator of greek programs.
Alpha Xi Delta National Headquarters emphasized that the decision to close the chapter was not based on the quality of its members.
Nelson said the chapter, which was founded at the University in 1914 and recolonized in fall 1991, met membership quota the first two years.
Quota is the number of new members that each chapter may select. Since then, he said, it has been a downward cycle in numbers.
In Spring 1993, a year after the first members were initiated, Alpha Xi Delta had about 120 members. A year later that number had fallen to about 70 members.
Two years later, Alpha Xi Delta had about 60 members. This past spring, the chapter had about 30 women.
Amy Heinemann, chapter president, said that the members planned to remain active and remain supportive of the greek community.
"We have appreciated all of the support we received from the University and the greek community," Heinemann said. "We plan to continue our campus involvement until the end of the year."
Alpha Xi Delta is the second sorority to close within the last three years. Alpha Omicron Pi closed its KU chapter after the 1995-96 school year.
"This is something they have been working so hard to avoid," Sigg said. "The women are strong, quality women. They just needed more and it didn't work out."
"We are deeply saddened, of course, to lose another chapter," said Libby Sigg, Panhelenic Association president. "This means we need to pull together as a Greek community and support one another."
Sigg said that Alpha Xi Delta had been trying to increase membership during the last few weeks. The sorority also had a recruitment campaign last spring to try to attract members.
Sigg added that no other KU sororities were in a similar position and that the closing was not an indicator that all sororites were losing numbers.
He said that within the last three years, an Alpha Xi Delta undergraduate at the University had received a national award for outstanding leadership. The chapter also aided its philanthropy, Choose Children.
Nelson said that the chapter's intention at this time was to submit a proposal asking to recolonize sometime within the next three to five years.
Nelson said that the chapter had a good track record of accomplishments, both within the University and regionally and nationally.
Another Alpha Xi Delta chapter began the colonization process yesterday at Rockhurst College in Kansas City, Mo.

Police officer pleads guilty in battery case
Lawrence Police Officer James W. Miller pleaded guilty at 2:30 p.m. yesterday in Douglas County District Court to the August battery of his 15-year-old daughter.
Douglas County District Court Judge Jack Murphy sentenced Miller to six months of supervised probation.
"It resulted in a spanking not appropriate for her age," she said.
Loveland said the spanking was done in an angry manner.
Sherri Loveland, Miller's lawyer, said that on Aug. 16, Miller engaged in inappropriate discipline with his 15-year-old daughter.
Miller was angry at his daughter because she had a party while he was out of town. Loveland said.
"There were illegal activities involving minors, and he was upset given his position at the police department," she said. "He was provoked to a certain extent."
Miller did not receive the maximum sentence of six months in jail because he had a clean record and was seeking counseling for both his daughter and himself, Murphy said.
Douglas County Sheriff Loren Anderson said the incident was reported on an abuse hot-line.
"We sent officers down there to check it out," Anderson said. "Miller came down to the station after he was contacted."
Police did not know when Miller would resume his duties.
Miller was arrested Aug. 20 on a battery charge and placed on administrative leave from the Lawrence Police Department that day, Lawrence Police Set, George Wheeler said.

Contract with workers may end phone strike
HARTFORD, Conn — Southern New England Telecommunications Corp. announced a tentative contract agreement with union workers, signaling a possible end to a four-week strike.
The new contract, if ratified, would be effective from Friday to April 1, 2001, company chairman and CEO Dan Miglio said early today after nearly 12 hours of negotiations. He declined to detail terms of the agreement until after it was ratified.
CWA representative Dennis Trainor said members of the bargaining committee were happy with the settlement, but he declined to give details. The union plans to hold a membership-ratification meeting tomorrow.
The 6,300 union workers walked off the job Aug. 23, demanding higher pay and increased benefits. The company has used 3,700 managers, retirees and temporary workers to stay in business.

Tibetan exiles received U.S. money, papers say
LOS ANGELES — The CIA provided the Tibetan exile movement with $1.7 million a year and paid the Dalai Lama a subsidy of $180,000 annually during the early 1960s, the Los Angeles Times reported yesterday.
The decade-long covert program to support the Tibetan independence movement was part of the CIA's worldwide effort to undermine Communist governments, particularly in the Soviet Union and China, the newspaper said.
Citing declassified historical documents released last month by the State Department, the Times said that the CIA helped support Tibetan guerrillas in Nepal, a military training site in Colorado, Tibetan causes in New York and Geneva, education for Tibetan operatives at Cornell University and supplies for reconnaissance teams
Tibetan exiles and the Dalai Lama have claimed for years that the CIA supported their cause. But until now, Washington has refused to release any information about its Tibetan intelligence operations.
By 1968, the CIA dropped its training programs inside the United States and cut the program's budget to below $1.2 million a year, the Times said. The support finally ended in the early 1970s after the Nixon administration's diplomatic opening to China.
In recent years, Congress has approved about $2 million annually in funding for Tibetan exiles in India. Congress also has urged the Clinton administration to spend another $2 million for democracy activities among Tibetans, the newspaper said.

to behave as they did.
"Before we walked out, we heard them announce that anyone caught on the field or throwing things on the field would be ejected from the game. It seemed kind of like an invitation to me," Reed said.
KU band member Keith Galantowicz, Chesterfield, Mo., senior, missed the trip to Missouri, but said the action of the crowd was not surprising.
"Missouri fans are not the nicest people in the world, and I'm not necessarily proud of where I come from," he said. "The people over there just like their team a lot."
As far as the punishment of the fans, Willard said that some were ejected from the game but that little else could be done after the incident had occurred.
university of Missouri Chancellor Richard Wallace issued an official statement about the events, saying the University of Missouri does not condone disrespect for guests, and expects all members of the MU community to take responsibility for their own behavior.
Willard said the rivalry between Kansas and Missouri had historical roots, making meetings emotional events.
"Just about every other college rivalry is superficial, but this one goes back to the Civil War. These opposing sides used to kill each other, but that doesn't excuse stupidity." Willard said.
"We used to have a tradition of throwing oranges into the end zone on the first game because we were competing for the Orange. Bowl, but that is kind of absurd now," Willard said.
Willard said that in the past, the act of throwing things on to the football field was an acceptable tradition.

More KU students choose to study abroad
By Jason Pearce
Kansan staff writer
Study-abroad programs are becoming more common for college students, and one University of Kansas office recruits students from the sidewalks of Jayhawk Boulevard.
With her smile and a handful of brochures, Margareta O'Connell, director of the office of study abroad, can be seen talking with students in front of Lippincott Hall about the advantages of studying abroad.
"When I give a student a brochure, I know that it might just change their life forever." she said.
Her enthusiasm and an overall increase in student interest has led to more students' leaving the United States for classrooms abroad.
During the 1997-98 school year, 945 students studied abroad. That is 160 students more than the previous year.
And if University administrators have their way, even more students will choose to study abroad.
At the recent faculty and staff convoction, Provest David Shulenburger said that he was in favor of a requirement for undergraduates to receive international exposure. This would include study-abroad trips and international classes.

For more information about opportunities abroad, see page 108.
But for now, the office of study abroad will continue planning events such as yesterday's study-abroad fair in the Kansas Union. The fair featured program representatives, students with previous study-abroad experience and information about destinations, trip lengths and costs.
"The price depends on the program a student chooses, but they can be very comparable to studying here," he said.
Doug Schenkelberg, office coordinator for study abroad, said that students from all schools of the University were able to study abroad as long as they were at least sophomores.

For example, tuition, room and board for a semester at the University of Costa Rica costs $4,400. This compares to the University of Kansas' price of $3,592 for in-state students and $6,802 for out-of-student students.
Jerker Zetterlund, Uppsala, Sweden foreign exchange student, is studying abroad at the University this year.
"Studying abroad is a great way to meet people from here, but you also get to know people from all over the world," he said.
Zetterlund said that coming to Kansas
had enabled him to take classes such as art history that he would not have been able to take in Sweden.
"If someone is at all thinking about studying abroad a little, they should go
because it is easier to travel while in college than later in life," he said.
Aminis donate $1.5 million to build new hall
Bv Sarah Hale
Kansan staff writer
A formal announcement yesterday by the University of Kansas clinched the construction of a new women's scholarship hall.
K. K. and Margaret Amini officially told the University that they would donate $1.5 million for the new hall to be built next to Amini, a men's scholarship hall.
"We very much appreciate their foresight and support in this important area of student life." Chancellor Robert Hemenway said.
of student housing.
The new hall will have the same layout, design and architectural elements as Amni Hall and should be finished by Fall 2000, said Ken Stoner, director
The plan for the scholarship hall was designed in 1991 as part of a dual project for two prospective halls. Since 1992, Amini Hall has been without its sister building.
The Aminis, who donated $1 million for the construction of Amini Hall, have not chosen a name for the new hall.
Margaret Amini said she thought it was important to provide women with the same opportunities as men. She said that both she and her husband were excited about providing an establishment that would help women.
"I felt it was great for the men, but I thought," "Hey, what about the women?" Margaret Amini said. "There are also a lot of women who don't have a chance to go to school. This is real important to them. Women should rely on themselves — it doesn't matter if they become a wife or mother."
Margaret Amini said that the decision to help finance another scholarship

hall was a spur-of-the-moment choice that was not difficult to make.
"We sort of do stuff like that," Margaret Amii said. "We do stuff on the cuff. We think about it, and if we can do, we'll do it."
K. K. Amini graduated from the School of Engineering in 1949, while Margaret Amini graduated from the School of Journalism in 1946.
The two met when Margaret Amini worked for The University Daily Kansas as the men's dean reporter.
The deam told her about the first KU student from Iran and how a story
about him would be interesting.
After talking to K.K. Amini about scheduling an interview, he told her that he would talk with her only if she would help him with his English. So she did.
At least once a year, the Aminis travel from their home in San Antonio, Texas, to visit the campus and the men of Amini Hall.
The Amins have donated $2.5 million for the scholarship halls and unknown amounts for the KU Vietnam Memorial and scholarship funds. Margaret Amini said that they had no plans for additional donations at this time.
They are both involved in the Alumni Association, Mount Oread Society and the Chancellor's Club. Margaret Ami also runs the San Antonio Amii Foundation to help children go to college, while K. K. Amii owns and operates Blanco Oil Co.
"We're just doing all of this so we stay out of trouble," she said.
Cultured faces portrayed as seen by Generation X
By Mariana Paiva
Kansan staff writer
The University of Kansas TRIO programs invite KU students to examine the multicultural faces of American society tonight in the Lied Center.
"Faces of America" will be performed at 7 p.m. as part of the TRIO day festivities. The performance, free to the public, is a one-person show portraying present culture through the eyes of Generation X.
The purpose of TRIO, originally consisting of three
FACES OF AMERICA
programs, is to enable students to achieve their academic and career ambitions by promoting equal opportunity in secondary education.
What: A one-person show that addresses present culture through the eyes of Generation X. The performance is free.
Where: The Lied Center
When: 7 tonight
Fran de Leon, an actress from Will & Company Theater, will perform the story of nine young Americans from different ethnic backgrounds in a series of skits, which combine to form a full play.
Megan Palmer, KU Upward Bound program assistant and coordinator of the event said the play would deal with issues relevant to students who are in the University's TRIO programs.
"TRIO programs were established by Congress to provide education opportunities to assist students with disabilities, as well as first-generation and low-income students." Palmer said.
KU's TRIO programs include Upward Bound, Upward Bound Math and Science Center, Student Support Services, Educational Talent Search, Educational Opportunity Centers and the Ronald E. McNair Post-Baccalaureate Achievement programs.
Colin Cox, director and author of the play, based the vignettes on interviews he did with more than 60 people. To keep with current issues, he constantly developed and changed the characters according to the public feedback and suggestions.
"I'm very excited about it," said Tania Cool, program assistant of the McNair program and event coordinator. "I know the play is very thought-provoking, especially in education, and this is definitely a need on campus."
Cooi said sponsors of the event would display information about their services at 6 tonight in the Lied Center lobby.
Palmer said the cost of the production and advertising would be about $7,000. She said several University departments made donations to the event.

Perspective
'Show Me State' does not show signs of intelligence
have learned a lot about the dangers of generalizations and closed-mindedness here at the University of Kansas, and Lam becoming more aware and compassionate toward groups that offend me. However, I'm going to need someone to hold my hand as I try to lose my insolent attitude toward our neighboring state to the east. There are some unnerving imponderables about Missouri, but this will be the last time I ask:
Missouri: What went wrong?
My question is posed mainly at MU fans, but in the true spirit of stereotyping, I'll paint a broader stroke upon a state that seems to enjoy a unique brand of backward mean-spiritedness
Now for those of you who didn't know, MU beat KU in football on Saturday. OK, so they

have a War Drum. Fine. Let them have it. They've been fighting a losing battle with us for more than a hundred years. The least we good sports over here on the western flank can do is give them a meaningless football trophy.

option@kansan.com
What Missouri really should struggle for is First World transportation and educational systems. And although it's kind of cute, like a baby who poops its pants, shouldn't they learn to pronounce the name of their state? I know phonics has reached even the most desolate of Missouri's nether regions.
MU students are the most unhappy students in the nation, and its no wonder in a state whose motto is a strange and snotty statement. What do they want to be shown, anyway? Maybe a way out. How else do you explain the foreign-place list on the Missouri map. Moscow, Memphis, Paris, California, rather peculiar wouldn't you say?
We might get closer to answers for our questions by examining the darker side of the "Show-Me State"'s past. Remember the whole slavery thing? How about Quantrill's raid and plunder? Pendergast, and the hospitality shown to the Mormons?
Missouri's antagonistic nature was revealed more than 150 years before Jason Sutherland threw his first elbow. If you think I'm upset, listen to the disdain of Massachusetts exSenator Charles Sumner describing Missourians during the buildup to the Civil War as
"hirelings picked from the drunken spew and vomit of an uneasy civilization."
What happened to them so many years back? The
more I ponder, the less I understand. It is clear that Missouri has had it in for Kansas for most of its history. Maybe its hatred is really a hackneyed inferiority complex that transforms itself into reactionary and insipid tantrums. Call it the Rush Limbaugh Syndrome.
Yes, it may be a small number of people who actually take the attitude of which I speak, but they are just so rotten. You'll never see a KU student body take on such riotous behavior as MU fans will.
The Missouri faithful have a weak sense of the right and good. They don't understand that rivalry doesn't have to entail alcohol and
throwing things.
Missourians might retort about Kansas' own backward ways - yeah, there are some - but the difference is that Missouri is content to revel in its idylocy.
Missouri was more than happy to turn a rather pretty area of their state into the hick-kitch capital of the U.S. How can a state be taken seriously when it allows Ray Stevens and Yakoff Smirnoff to perform more than once a decade?
There are lovely places and remarkable institutions of culture in Missouri, like the Nelson-Atkins Museum, but perhaps these are masks disguising their true society; one that is built around booze and bullying.
But, everyone can change, and we Kansans are a forgiving lot. We can get over their vile past. Missouri need only repent its dastardly ways in order to form a new rivalry that doesn't require the carrying of a six-shooter when going to an away game.
I'll not wonder about Missouri's seemingly dark psyche. I've gotten no closer to an explanation anyway. I'll not judge anymore, Missouri. It's up to you now. Let go of the bottle and shake my hand. I'll just wait for Missouri to come to its senses and lighten and sober up.

Class was the real loser in the KU loss Saturday
Perspective
tradclaling each side of the Missouri River, the University of Kansas and the University of Missouri played out their annual "Border War" football game
When the game was over, the Missouri student section rushed onto the field to tear down the goal posts. After 20 minutes of trying during which a young woman was injured, the goal posts finally came down and the Missouri students stumbled to the exits.
But no, in the second half, the bottle throwing continued — this time directed at the KU sideline. A sideline reporter was nearly hit by a half-finished bottle of Jack Daniel's, and the downpour of profane words grew stronger (it's amazing how many words thousands of Mizzou fans can think of that rhyme with KU when they put their minds to it).
I just sat there in awe. Not only did I just witness Kansas lose (again). I had just witnessed the single worst display of class I've seen in my life. But I wasn't really upset. Heck, I was glad the MU fans had just made complete fools of themselves on national television. It just makes us look that much better.
They partied like rock stars. I didn't want to spoil their fun and tell them they had just beaten Kansas, a team picked to finish second-to-last in the Northern division.

You see, the Missouri fans just don't get it. After they eventually graduate, they will head into the real world and finally understand that there are more important things in life than beating Kansas.

But with their lack of sportsmanship, the Tiger fans sent a message to everyone in the stadium and on national television: Missouri may have won Saturday's battle, but if class is the indicator of who's winning the war. Kansas is far ahead.

out for the game. I have a friend who I graduated high school with me in Columbia, so I met up with her after hours on I-70 and another hour of traffic in Columbia.
Decked out in a "neutral" green shirt, my plan was to simply sit in silence without letting anyone know of my KU roots and watch a friendly afternoon of poorly played Big 12 football in 90-degree heat. But instead I witnessed the single worst display of sportsmanship ever.

As is tradition at most Big 12 schools, our marching band traveled to Missouri to play their halftime routine. When the band walked onto the field, instead of facing the usual insults and profanity encountered at most Big 12 schools, they instead took cover from a steady downpour of bottles, pennies, and about anything else that the rowdy and inebriated Mizzou fans could get their hands on.
The border war didn't end on Saturday. It's a lifelong competition, battling for class and what you think is right. I'll concede to Missouri the lousy football game — a battle — but I took home from Columbia the knowledge that Kansas was winning the war by the way we fought — with class — respecting our opponents. War, after all, is hell, and so is Columbia.

Feedback
Missouri fans were offensive at game
Last weekend a few of my fellow freshman hall mates and I skipped the Jayhawk Music Festival to support our football team in Columbia. Before we attended the game, we did not realize the extent of hatred the MU fans feel toward anyone wearing crimson and blue. We arrived expecting minor teasing and ribbing — after all we were the minority drowning in a sea of black and gold — but there were several instances throughout the game where we felt that the MU fans went too far.
This game was meant to be fun, but the MU fans crossed the rivalry boundaries and ruined the game for us. My parents found the behavior of the fans to be appalling. Neither was expecting the level of harassment their daughter and her friends were to receive. My mother was offended by the way 30-to-40-year-old alumni men were treating 18-year-old freshmen women. My father who is a MU alumnus also was shocked at the behavior of the fans.
The harassment did not stop when we left the stadium. It continued through out the night. After the game, we went to try to eat at a local restaurant in peace, but instead we were gawked at like some circus showshow. The teasing did not stop until we left the city limits of Columbia.
For example, as we walked through the MU tunnel we encountered derogatory comments and extreme profanity, which we took in stride, trying to ignore it by smiling and walking on. It seemed to us that the line between rivalry and mean spiritedness was crossed. When talking to other KU students, they told us of similar experiences, which also involved physical intimidation. I later found out that the harassment went as far as glass objects being thrown at the Crimson Girls.
I found the behavior of the MU fans to be so offensive that I never want to attend a sporting event there again. I hope that KU students will be able to create a fun environment for all visiting sport spectators. I also hope we are able to show class while we are cheering on our teams without being degrading toward others

KU band acted with integrity, pride
I am a native of Raytown, Mo., and have lived there my entire life. Last Saturday I was embarrassed to be a Missouri resident. I expected to hear some friendly teasing, but the language and gestures used to express the feeling of the Missouri fans were insulting and repulsive.
Upon arrival, I was flattered to see signs reading, "Beat KU" posted around town, but later I learned MU fans cared more about seeing Kansas lose than Missouri winning. I always heard about the rivalry dating back to the Civil War days but thought that there was no truth to the story until I saw all of the "kill 'em Tigers" buttons, the Jayhawks being hung from the bridge near the dorms and a cannon being fired. I was repulsed to see MU fans still living in the Antebellum Period.
To add insult to injury, several drunk men sat behind the KU band shouting insults and encouraging the students to throw more bottles on the field. I was stunned to witness a student several rows in the front of me motion to a water vendor, buy a bottle, take one drink and then chuck the bottle into the flute section.
The most disgraceful act occurred at the close of the first half when the Kansas Band lined up to perform at the halftime. I was amazed at the quantity of items being thrown by the MU students. Thankfully, no one was injured.
Saddest of all, the ushers, security guards, and policemen did nothing to stop the students or protect the KU band. One announcement was made asking everyone not to throw things on the field, but it went ignored and unenforced. I cannot understand why the University of Missouri would allow such deplorable acts to occur. The Kansas Band represented the entire University well Saturday with the class they displayed on the field. They did
not entice or provoke any of the Missouri actions but stood their ground and performed very well.
I am terribly embarrassed to be a Missouri native, but tremendously proud to be a Jayhawk.

Some groups must finance themselves
The Supreme Court definition of free speech includes the right of persons to spend or not spend their money so that their speech can be heard. It's wrong to force someone to spend their money to promote the speech of others. It's a person's right to say no. There is a difference between a group which is directly linked to the educational mission of the University, such as athletics, and groups which espouse political and ideological views.
In Smith v. Regents of California, a right of students not to organize, in effect saying that students at public institutions have the right to withhold mandatory fees which are used to support organizations who they disagree with, was upheld. Now comes further validation of this ruling at the University of Wisconsin.
We live in a democracy where the rights of the few are protected even if the exercise of those rights violates the will of the majority. Just like we are unable to discriminate based upon race or religion a historical protection for the few, we can't trample on a person's right to not fund speech they disagree with.
Student groups espousing political or ideological views should fund their own activities. Otherwise, we better be willing to support any student group that comes along and asks for money including religious and political groups.
Heck let's fund everybody and everything. I myself would want funding for "Save the African Penguins," a group whose sole mission is to raise awareness and support about the plight of those majestic penguins in Africa.

Nigerian women's delegation visits to learn about rights

Group meets with legislators

By Steph Brewer
Kansan staff writer
This week, a delegation of eight Nigerian women is visiting the University of Kansas and surrounding cities by invitation of a KU lecturer and the mayor of Kansas City, Mo.
Aminu Gusau, lecturer in the language Hausa, became involved with the council while in Nigeria on a humanitarian mission.
The women are leaders of the National Council of Women's Societies in Nigeria, a non-profit organization that works for the empowerment of women.
Although women make up 52 percent of Nigeria's population, they still struggle for equality. Gusau said he wanted the women to visit faculty and students at the University to learn more about women's rights in the United States.
"I thought now is the time," Gusau said. "Women have started to move up. It's good if they can have links with women who have made it."
Yesterday morning, the delegation, led by council President Zainab Maina, went to Topeka. The women met with Secretary of State Ron Tornburgh and five Kansas women legislators, including Barbara Ballard, associate vice chancellor of student affairs and state representative for the 44th district. In the afternoon, they visited the Office of Minority Affairs, International Student Services and the Sigma Kappa sorority house.
Today, they will meet with Peter Ukokodu, professor of African traditional religion and thought, and visit Lawrence high schools. Ballard will moderate a discussion, "Speaking for Nigerian Women," at 4 p.m. in the Multicultural Resource Center.
Sarah Gana, the council
national research coordinator, said she went to come to the United States to learn from American women.
"I want to know how American women made it to where they are today," she said.
Monday, at the Women's Bureau of the U.S. Department of Labor in Kansas City, Mo., the delegation met with Regional Administrator Rose Kemp and Program Development Specialist Dorothy Witherpoon.
The women exchanged information about women's positions and women's programs in the United States and Nigeria. The delegation members asked Kemp for help and advice.
"We would like to see the American public and government to focus attention to development of the poorest of the poor — women in Africa," said Mallain Ahmad J. Saio, personal assistant to Maina.
Kemp said that she would offer any advice she could but that the Women's Bureau was limited in

"Last year in Kansas City, there were something like 93 high school exchange students from around the world and there were none from Africa." Kemp said.
No programs are definite yet, but the council said it would keep in touch with Kemp via e-mail.
After the meeting with Kemp, the members of the delegation attended a luncheon at City Hall where they were welcomed by Kansas City Mayor Emanuel Cleaver and were awarded honorary citizenship in the city.

At the luncheon, Maina described the purpose of council. She said Nigerian girls were chronically anemic and had trouble receiving vaccinations and education.
"The goal of our council is to reverse such a disturbing trend through the empowerment of women," she said.
Senators oppose loss of discount theater
By Seth Jones
Kansan staff writer
Three student senators are upset about the closing of Lawrence's only dollar theater and the cost of tickets at Hollywood theaters, and they have asked Student Senate to do something about it.
A resolution submitted by Maria Abatjoglou, Liberal Arts and Science senator, Mark Horowitz, graduate senator and Alan Stearns, graduate senator, asks Senate to encourage Hollywood Theaters to continue providing a discount theater at Hillcrest or elsewhere or to offer a 30 percent discount for Lawrence students to all Hollywood Theater films.
Hollywood Theaters has leased
the Hillcrest Theater property for a year but decided not to renew the lease, which expires Sept. 27. If the theater closes, there will be no discount theater in Lawrence.
The resolution will be heard by Senate committees in tonight's meetings.
Abatjoglou said that Hollywood Theaters was becoming a veritable monopoly.
"It makes me so mad that Hollywood is taking advantage of us," she said. "I can't afford movies in this town, and Senate wants to avoid monopolies, so I want Senate to do something about it."
Abatjoglu said that the $6 tickets for night movies and $4 tickets for matinees were too steep for college students.
In Olathe and Kansas City, students can go to Dickinson The
ater movies at night for $3.75 with a valid student ID.
Representatives of Hollywood Theaters could not be reached for comment.
Horowitz said that the senators who had submitted the resolution also had sent a letter with their requests to Hollywood Theaters. He said they hoped to have a response from the company to bring before full Senate should the resolution pass tonight's committees.
"We're sending the letter now so we can see what kind of response they give us," he said. "Once we know how Hollywood reacts, we'll tell Senate and see what kind of action we need to take next."
Abatijoglu said there were three main options presented in
the letter: renew the lease at Hillcrest and, if necessary, increase the price of admission to $2; find another location for a cheaper theater in Lawrence, like the Varsity; or offer students a 30 percent discount on all Hollywood Theater shows.
Abatjoglou said the main goal of the letter was to put pressure on the company to offer cheaper movie options for students.
"If they blow us off and we get Senate's support, then we can take this step further," she said.
"We'll see what kind of reaction they give us, but we've already been told by the company that Hollywood just won't give any discounts," she said. "So we want them to know that if they won't give us a break, we will be as vocal as possible."

'The Lawrence Arts Center is one step closer to a new complex, but there still is work to be done before the $5.6 million masterpiece is approved.
Arts center closer to improvement
CENTRO DE ARQUITECTURA E INGENIERÍA SAN FRANCISCO
By Chris Fickett
Kansan staff writer
Last night, the Lawrence City Commission forwarded the arts center improvement plan to the Historic Resources Commission.
The plan calls for renovations to the interior of the Carnegie Library building, at the northwest corner of West Ninth and Vermont streets.
The plan included a 275-seat performance space addition to the north of the Carnegie building and an educational facility addition to the west.
The building has housed the arts center since 1974.
Ann Evans, executive director of the arts center, said the three buildings would be attached at the middle by a performance-gathering space.
The arts center plan was designed by Glenn Livingood Penzler Architects, 1001 New Hampshire St.
Wildgen said because the city was the owner and developer of the arts center, the city commission would have to make the final decision after the Historic Resources Commission made its recommendations.
City Manager Mike Wildeng said the plan must be approved first by the Historic Resources Commission because the renovations would occur within 500 feet of the Carnegie building, which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
This model displays the recommended additions to Carnegie Library, which has housed the Lawrence Arts Center since 1974. The $5.4 million project still must go before the city commission. Contributed art
The Historic Resources Commission will meet in special session Sept. 24 in City Hall to hear public comment and make recommendations about the plan.

believe to be a good neighbor," he said. Erik Kilgren, member of friends of the Carnegie Library, said that the Historic Resources Commission had expressed concern in previous meetings that the arts center addition would encroach on the library building.
"We have come up with a design that we believe to be a good neighbor." he said.

New recreation center back on agenda
That is the question facing Student Senate members and administration at the University.
By Liz Wristen
Kansan staff writer
three committees have been created this semester to study the problems with Robinson Center and to come up with a proposal that best suits the needs of students based on location and available funding, said Kevin Yoder, student body president.
To build a new KU recreation center or not to build one.
The committees will begin meeting tomorrow.
"Many rooms in Robinson are being used for classes that usually meet in other buildings," Yoder said. "I think the recreation issue is getting worse, if anything, because
of the need to use Robinson for classes other than recreation. This highlights a need in my mind for more facilities."
At least three proposals will be considered by the committees this semester, Yoder said. If more proposals are created, then they will be considered as well, he said.
Ine proposals include renovations and additions to the current center, constructing a new center in a portion of the parking lot south of Watkins Memorial Health Center and constructing a center on West Campus.
The original proposal, made three years ago, was for a West Campus center. Students voted down the proposal because of the $90 start-up fee they would be charged to initiate the construction of the center and a lack of information about the plan, said Scott Kaiser, student body vice president.
Yoder and Kaiser said if students voted to construct a new center, they were considering an idea that
would require students to pay a start-up fee. If the plan passed in the spring, then students would begin paying the proposed fee next fall. The fee probably would be about $10 per student. Once the center was built, only the students using the center would be required to pay a fee.
"Three years ago, it seemed like the students just woke up and voted on the facility," Kaiser said. "It looked like they weren't consulted because, in fact, they were not consulted."
Yoder and Kaiser both will be heading up committees that will be involved in learning more about what students want in a recreation center. Yoder said his committee would concentrate on gathering student opinions about the different proposals. Kaiser's committee, which consists of students and administration, deals with the financing of the project and recreational services.
"Right now, we are really working
on trying to get organized," said Mary Chappell, director of recreational services. "When we get together, we are going to be talking about everything from the building block on up."
Chappell is one of four faculty members that will be involved with the planning process. The other faculty members are Ann Eversole, the assistant dean of student life; Danny Kaiser, director of the student organization and leadership development center; and Bob Lockwood, the facilities manager for Robinson.
Kaiser said that if a proposal could be agreed upon by the committees and administration, students would see the proposal on a referendum this April.
"At our first meeting, we will begin discussing when would be a good time to submit plans to the chancellor and the University." Lockwood said. "This issue is quite a priority for Student Senate, and it is going to be high on our agenda this semester."

Professor maps out compromise
Tribes want to remain in Honduran rain forest
By Julie M. Sachs Kansan staff writer
A University of Kansas professor is investigating the conflict between the indigenous tribes and the government about rain forests in Honduras.
Peter Herlihy, assistant professor of geography, has a solution: maps.
Herlihy is working with several tribes in the Rio Platano Biosphere Reserve in Honduras in an attempt to map out the land.
The Honduran government wants to leave the rain forest intact, but the indigenous tribes need the land to survive.
In Herlyth's project, various members of each tribe draw maps of their land. In these maps, they mark places where they hunt, fish, gather medicine and use wood.
These maps are taken from each different tribe and analyzed.
They are then made into one unified map, which shows all the areas where each tribe uses for living activities, Herlihy said.
"It's important that the people are helping to determine their own boundaries," said John Hoopes, acting director of Latin American Stud
ies.
In the final map, zones were designated for the people to use for living activities. In each zone, only certain activities are allowed. Herlihy said.
Only one mass of heavily forested land in the center of the blosphere is to remain untouched, Herilhy said.
The goal of this project was to show what was available in the biosphere and to figure out how to conserve the remaining areas. Herlihy remarked.
But there is one potential difficulty with the mapping project.
"The idea is intended to set up a management system of the biosphere between the people and the legal authorities." Herlihy said.
"What Peter's research results is one map, so it's hard to define where to draw the line on the map." Hoopes said.
There also may be a problem with the Honduran government.
Although the map showed that the various groups could live on the land without causing harm, the Honduran government has not yet approved the arrangement. Herihly said.
If the government does not approve the arrangement, about 45,000 people could be without a place to live.
"The people won't accept anything less than co-management," Herlihy said.

African-American leaders emerge
Program designed to tutor, help youths
By Julie M. Sachs
Kansan staff writer
Through research, Jacob Gordon discovered that the number of African-American males in prison and jail exceeded the number of African-American males enrolled in higher education.
Such statistics propelled the stereotype of the African-American male, said Gordon, professor of African and African-American studies.
Because Gordon was unwilling to stand back and witness the downfall of young African-American males, he and several other educators formed the African-American Male Leadership Academy in 1983.
Funding for the academy stems from an $8.5 million grant from the Kellogg Foundation.
"It's not enough to look at the problems," Gordo said. "You have
to look at the solutions."
The academy provides opportunities to help about 270 gifted or exceptional African-American highschool students reach their fullest potential despite their underprivileged status.
"This year, the focus has been reach one, teach one. The participants tutored each day from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. at elementary schools," said Leon Wesley, a program site coordinator in Wichita. "They each had to reach one and teach one."
Through activities, the academy also proposed challenges to participants.
Each participant was challenged to complete 100 hours of community service. If they finished their hours, they were awarded four dollars for each hour. The academy eventually awarded about $4,000 in scholarship money, Wesley said.
Mentors make up a large part of the academy experience.
Each participant is assigned two to three mentors to whom they can talk. Mentors are assigned according to the participants' interests.
The program also teaches everyday skills, such as how to look and act in a job interview. The participants are groomed to succeed in the world.
"A lot of students tell us they don't know what they would've done without us," Gordon said. "They have gone from hell to heaven."
It also has instilled lessons that will be useful in future situations.
Kyle Williams, sophomore at South High School in Wichita and program participant, said, "It helped me realize that you have to work for everything. You can do anything you want to as long as you stay focused."
Because the academy has helped many African-American men excel in life, Gordon insists that involvement and leadership are key.
"We can never stay aloof in our corner. Leadership is key to world future." "Gordon said, "That's my hope: not only for them to become successful academically but to be leaders."
RECENTLY MORNINGSTAR CALLED US CHEAP. IT'S NOT EVERY DAY YOU GET A COMPLIMENT LIKE THAT.
PRINCIPLES OF SOUND RETIREMENT INVESTING
All financial companies charge operating fees and expenses—some more than others. Of course, the lower the expenses you pay, the better That way, more of your money goes where it should—towards building a comfortable future.
As the largest retirement system in the world'-a nonprofit company focused exclusively on the financial needs of the educational and research communities-our expenses are among the lowest in the insurance and mutual fund industries?
We make low expenses a top priority.
In fact, TIA4-CREF's $0.31\%$ average fund expenses are less than half of the expense charges of comparable funds? It's why Morningstar—one of the nation's leading sources of annuity and mutual fund information—says, "At that level [TIA4-CREF] is cheaper than any other
[variable annuity] policy, and is even competitive with the cheapest mutual fund complexes, though it offers far more benefits."
Of course, expenses are only one factor to consider when you make an investment decision. Morningstar also noted our commitment to "consumer education, service" and "solid investment performance." Because that can make a difference in the long run, too.
At TIAA-CREF we believe people would like to spend more in retirement, not on their retirement company. Today, over two million people count on that approach to help them build a comfortable and secure future. So can you. To find out more, call us at 1800 842-2776. We'd consider it a compliment.

Dial-in accounts still easy to access
By Melody Ard
Kansan staff writer
Contrary to what some students believed, the University Computer Center did not change its policy for dial-in and Ethernet account hookups.
Erinn Barcomb, Wichita sophomore, said she had the understanding that she would have to bring her central processing unit (CPU) to the Computer Center to get Ethernet hooked up.
However, John Punch, Computer Center employee, said Ethernet and dial-in accounts always are available and that students rarely have to bring in their machines.
Punch said the easiest way to sign up for the service was to access the Computer Center's Website. In fact, Punch said, the students never have to go to the center at all.
students can access the Web site from any online computer or go to any of the computer centers." Punch said. "We don't even have to have software to do it, but it makes it easier."
Punch said it was necessary for owners to bring their CPUs to the center only as a last resort.
"I don't know where they would get the idea that we had to install it for them," Punch said. "The only reason that they would need to bring in the computer is if we couldn't solve the problem over the phone."
Another problem students may have with their e-mail accounts, whether they have on-campus or dial-in accounts, is a forgotten password.
However, Theresa Bateson, information technology consultant, said the problem wasn't permanent.
"If students forget their passwords, they need to bring their KUID to the office." Bateson said. "The system doesn't tell us what the password was for security reasons, so they must choose a new one."
DIAL-IN ACCOUNTS
Computer services require beating crowds
By Chad Bettes
Kansan staff writer
Many professors at the University of Kansas are requiring students to conduct research, check e-mail and retrieve course schedules — all online. Because of these and other advances in academic technology, demand for computers on campus is high.
Academic computing services was offering assistance and several options for getting course work done on time, said Wes Hubert, associate director of the department.
Students must plan ahead to ensure availability and to minimize frustration, Hubert said. There are peak times when campus computers are used. Peak times at most computer labs were between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m., Hubert said.

"We've seen a decline this semester in evening use," Silkey said. "We're running 33 to 40 percent capacity at night."
Sue Silkey, lab manager for the Budig Hall and Computer Center labs, the University's two largest computer centers, confirmed that evenings were the best time to get computer time right now.
Silkey and Hubert said historically the demand for computers grows as the semester progresses, so extra planning
10.00
was required as more students log on to complete papers and other research.
Another tip for beating the crowds is to try various computer centers around campus, Hubert said. There are about 800 to 900 computers for students, 371 of them are available to all students.
The Budig Hall and Computer Center labs account for 171 computers, said Silkey. Computers also are located in more than 25 alternate locations such as libraries and residence halls.
Some computer labs are restricted to students in specific departments and programs. For example, the computers in Marvin Hall are available for use by architecture students.
Tara Kelly, Overland Park sophomore, said she already had experienced wait times this semester in the Budig lab. She had been successful in finding computers available at a computer lab on the fourth floor of Wescoe.
"I don't think as many people know about it." she said.
Kelly said she had a personal computer at her sorority house but it had been malfunctioning. She also likes the convenience of using the computer centers while on campus.
William Crowe, vice chancellor for information services, estimated that 80
percent of students have computer access at their residences, but, as that number grows, he has not seen the need for on-campus computers diminishing.
He said the University was looking to provide "connecting points" in the future, where students with portable computers would be able to plug into a power supply and the University network.
Provost David Shulenburger has called for all incoming students to have home computer access by 1999. Crowe said that was a guideline, not a requirement, at this
time. University deans will meet this fall to decide how to implement the policy.
Meanwhile, plans are being made for additional computer capabilities on campus. The $3-per-credit-hour technology fee will provide funding for computer infrastructure and improvements, Crowe said.
Hubert encouraged students to take advantage of dial-in computer accounts for convenience at home. Dial-in accounts allow the user to access the Internet and other KU resources via modem. About 8,000 people already have accounts.
Employee shortage stalls multimedia renovations
Students and faculty will have access to better teaching tools in classrooms around campus this semester as soon as the University completes some remodeling.
However, recent losses in Facilities Operations' employees and the beginning of fall classes was affecting the project's pace, said Robert Porter, associate director of Facilities Operations.

"Employees have left, and we haven't found replacements for the numerous vacancies," Porter said.
The multimedia modifications include improvement of overhead projectors and more complex projection cameras through wiring reconfiguration and the addition of light switches. The changes are part of a three-year Facilities Operations "Crumbling Classrooms" project, now in its second year; aimed at maximizing and enhancing University space for academic and office purposes.
Murphy Hall classrooms renovated this summer will have new air conditioners to replace the temporary ones within the next two weeks. Some renovations are running behind schedule as well, and instructors have had to find other rooms in which to conduct classes.

This fall, Beck, Overland Park junior, will spend less time working on her projects by hand and will spend more time using one of the 18 architecture studios. Computer stations with network access and computer programs will be available in the studios.
Each studio offers computers with programs including Netscape, Microsoft and AUTOCAD, one of the major architectural drawing programs, said Tim Gillessen, computer specialist for the Architecture Computer Resource Center. The studios also offer a common workstation that
Alison Beck spends many late hours working on her architecture projects in Marvin Hall.
"The studios are good because they give students the opportunity to use some of the latest architecture equipment." Beck said.
The department also is working to set up more computer locations throughout the school, which will give students greater access to the AutoCAD program. Locations include the architecture.
The department is working to bring up two servers that will allow internal communication throughout the department. Gillesse said the Website servers would allow students to have inbound access to the studio computers. The new technology will offer a means of convenience for the students, he said.
will allow students to transfer information from one studio to the next.
Flatbed scanners, large-format printers for drafting, slide scanners, CD burners and the Design Workshop program are other additions that the architecture school has added to its studios. Gillesse said.
"We are constantly in a state of upgrade here," Gillesse said. "By upgrading, we can provide the students with much better technology. We take an incremental approach so that we always have a staple of moving technology."

Remedies sought for allergy struggles
By Sue Franke
Kansan staff writer
With seasonal allergies in full swing, ragweed, pollen and mold are a nightmare for some students.
"We're seeing a lot of students this month with allergy-related symptoms including itchy eyes, runny nose, congestion and tightness in the chest," said Randall Rock, Watkins Memorial Health Center chief of staff.
Ragweed allergies continue until there is a temperature freeze, which is usually in October, said Krishna Schmidt, physician assistant for K.C. Allergy & Asthma Associates, P.A., in Overland Park.
However, it can be an all-year struggle for those allergic to mold.
Unless you get prescription drugs for seasonal allergies, over-the-
"Molds tend to be higher after rain and humid weather, so spring and fall we see mold counts rising," she said. "Molds can even occur in the winter, especially if we get a lot of moisture and then it warms up for awhile."

or indoor dust and mold allergies.
For indoor dust and mold allergies, vacuum carpets, clean regularly and change your air filter every two months.
Keep windows closed, and run the air conditioning.
Avoid gardening during peak pollen production: from 5 to 10 a.m. and just before dusk.
Sometimes, allergies lead to sinus infections. Symptoms of a sinus infection include fever, consistent and persistent sinus pressure, colored drainage and sometimes a sensation of a toothache. He said a sinus infection might require antibiotics or, in severe cases, aerosol or oral steroids.
counter antihistamines such as Benadryl and Actifed will make you drowsy, Schmidt said.
Dust allergies can be another problem for students. Schmidt said that pillowcases and mattress encasements could be purchased to protect against dust mites and suggested washing them every week or two
Schmidt suggested that students see a physician specializing in allergies when symptoms interfered with everyday life and are not controlled with medicine. If medicines are interfering or if sinus infections are recurrent, she said an allergy physician could do skin testing to identify specific allergies.
with other bedding. She said cloth or vinyl encasements could be purchased through an allergy company or a discount store.
"Then that one area where you spend eight hours a day — one third of your life — is a haven from allergens," she said.
An air purifier for the bedroom is another way to filter out allergens. Schmidt said the air purifier should run 24 hours a day in the bedroom with the bedroom door closed.

Choosing the path
story by heather woodward photos by
It's been a year since Lawrence resident John Hermes was killed riding his bike on Ninth Street. Thanks to the efforts of concerned students and the city's bicycle advisory committee, bike safety is gaining speed.
The death of bicyclist John Hermes on Sept. 15, 1997, prompted many students and cyclists to rally behind one issue: making Lawrence a safer place for bike riders.
One year after his death, the action of the Lawrence City Commission and its Bicycle Advisory Committee is slowly becoming visible.
Hermes, Lawrence resident, died in a collision with an automobile at the intersection of Ninth and Mississippi streets, an area that Clayton Comfort, chairman of the Bicycle Advisory Committee, said is a high priority for the group.
Based on recommendations from the committee, whose members the city commission appoints, the city hired a consultant from Trans Systems Corp., a company that specializes in dealing with transportation problems. During the summer, the consultant studied 10 heavily traveled streets, including Tennessee, Kentucky, Ohio, Indiana, Naismith and Ninth streets, to determine a plan of action. Studies of other streets are slated for the coming months.
Kip Curtis, New York graduate student, was a leader last year in informing the advisory committee and commission about the concerns many have about the safety of bicyclers.
"I think it's great," Curtis said of the city's evaluation of streets around Lawrence. "It's so much better than nothing, which is what they were doing before. I doubt, though, that we will see bike lanes in the inner city, which is ultimately what people are asking for."
Heavily travelled streets
Trans Systems Corp. studied the indicated streets this summer to help the city make roadways safer for bike riders. Studies of other streets are planned for later this year.

Picking the best route
SHARE
THE ROAD
The consultant will study the physical aspects, the amount of traffic and the speed of traffic for each road, Comfort said. From these observations, an automobile/bicycle compatibility index will be created, which will be used as a guide to see what, if any alterations will make the specified roadways safer for bicyclists.
"The highest priority will be to see if we should create bike lanes," Comfort said. "From the campus to downtown is where the greatest need is."
Terese Gorman, city engineer, said three possibilities exist for making roads more bicycle-friendly: bike lanes, which would be separate lanes created by painting a white line on the pavement; bike paths, separate asphalt trails that are often used in recreational riding; and bike routes designated by signs alerting motorists of the presence of bikers.
Curtis, however, said he thought bike lanes were ideal for those who use their bikes as a primary form of transportation, and that signs on the road benefited children who ride bikes for fun.
"The purpose of this study is to get a handle on the amount of time, money and political capital this project will take and see where it would be practical to put bike lanes," Comfort said. "Our committee has been advocating for this for quite a long while, but the death of the bicyclist on Ninth and Mississippi brought a lot of interest from the students. Regrettably, the increased attention made the public believe that bike lanes will solve everything."
Based on road use by bikers and automobiles, the consultant will recommend one of the three solutions. Gorman and Comfort predicted that Trans Systems will complete the study within four or five months.
But he said, traffic signs impeded the paths of bikers and that those dependent on their bikes couldn't stop at every stop sign.
With but bike lanes comes the lack of parking available on city streets, as bikers would ride in the space now used by residents and students. Comfort said.
"There aren't a lot of bike lanes around town, but there should be, considering how many bicyclists and pedestrians there are," said Dylan Shotton, Sublette sophomore who drives his car to campus everyday.
"The other day, I was driving to campus and there was a cyclist in the road because there was no sidewalk and no bike lane. I had to wait until oncoming traffic was out of the way before I could go around him. It was kind of a hassle."
While city officials and proponents of bike lanes debate the merits of the solutions, Lawrence bikers and drivers sometimes find themselves at odds.
During the summer, the city constructed a 10-foot bike path between 15th and 19th streets on Iowa Street. Comfort said that there are plans to continue that path south of 19th Street. Additionally, in conjunction with Student Senate, a bike rack will be added to buses that run the 23rd and Naismith routes so students can bring their bikes onto the bus.
Comfort stressed that wearing a helmet and adhering to the laws of the road help increase safety for each rider.
it becomes burdensome," he said. "I think why you see these accidents with stop signs is because they are artificially slowing them down. For that reason, it's dangerous by design."
"trus is a pilot project," she said. "If it works we'll add more as we can budget for it."
With the addition of bike racks, students who ride to campus on a bike in the morning when the weather was nice can decide to ride the bus home in
The road ahead
Nicole Skalla, transportation coordinator for Student Senate, said the bike racks would not be installed on the buses for another two weeks.

the event of snow show. The racks on the buses will hold two bikes. Skala said it takes 10 seconds to mount a bike on the rack, which is attached to the front of the outside of the bus. Safety arms extend over the tires to keep the bikes from harm and locked in place.
KU students who had observed similar programs in Boulder, Colo., Seattle, Ithaca, N.Y., and San Francisco first approached Skalla with the idea. She said none of the cities had reports of bikes damaged in transit.
the event of snow or rain.
Meanwhile, the Lawrence Bicycle Advisory Committee hired its own transportation coordinator Aug. 1 to serve as a focal point in planning.
The committee will continue to address bicycle safety as a matter of education in addition to plans to create bike lanes where they most are needed. The group is trying to enlist local bike shops to make riders aware of precautions to make biking a safer activity. The committee also plans to sponsor helmet giveaways throughout the year in conjunction with Emergency Medical Services and the Lawrence fire department.
Those concerned with cyclists' well-being believe education is a step in the right direction.
"Bike safety involves more than just signs," Curtis said. "There needs to be good education in conjunction with the city and the University. They have to make bike safety a part of the infrastructure."

Quarterback awaits turn
Confidence high in backup despite his inexperience
By Jodi M. Smith
Kansan sportswriter
Jay Alexander is a junior walk-on for the Kansas football team who hasn't played organized football in two years.
he's also the backup quarterback.
He also the backup quarterback. Alexander, who transferred to Kansas after two years at Independence Community College, was chosen by coach Terry Allen during the second week of practice to play backup to starting quarterback Zac Weger.
Allen said he chose Alexander because of Alexander's experience.
But after sitting out of football his freshman and sophomore years in college, Alexander has no more college experience than the other two reserves, freshmen Jonas Weatherbie and Jake Letourneau.
"Experience probably wasn't it," Allen said. "A better term would have been maturity. He has been around; he carries himself with a little more presence through his maturity that the other players rally around and have respect for."
He took two years off simply because he didn't feel like playing anymore.
"I just wanted to take a break; I didn't want to play football." Alexander said. "I wanted to wait until I got that feeling back to play again all the time."
Alexander thought a year off would do the trick, but after working his way through spring drills at Independence, he realized he wasn't quite ready to come back.
He wasn't ready, in fact, until he got to Lawrence this summer.
Alexander always wanted to play football at Kansas.
"I didn't really plan on taking two years off, I just took time off." Alexander said. "I was enjoying myself. I kept working out. I figured I'd lose some stuff, but I got up here this past summer and went through summer practice, and I'm starting to get it back now."
He received letters from Kansas, K-State and junior colleges in the Jayhawk conference during his senior year in high school but was not offered a scholarship. So, he decided to stay close to home and give it a try.
"My dad told me that if I was going to play, give it a jucy try first," Alexander said. "I told him I didn't want to play. Then when I got done with juco, we had a long talk. He said. I'll let you give it a try,' and here am."
Here he is, indeed, and after summer drills he was able to prove himself and
snag the backup quarterback position.
snap the backup quarterback position. But two days after the depth chart was released, Alexander went down with a knee injury that kept him out for two weeks.
The thought of losing his position because of his injury was not foremost in his mind.
"That wasn't my main concern." Alexander said. "At the moment, I was worried about how long I was going to have to be out. They told me maybe a couple of weeks, and that cheered me up. I was worried about losing my spot, but I knew when I got back I would have to fight just as hard to get it back, like when I first started."
"We still have identified and believe that Jay is the best backup for Zac." Allen said. "That's a given from watching practice. We feel comfortable with him as far as a guy who could step in
With his knee fully recovered, Alexander is back in the Jayhawks lineup in the same spot as when he left.
Reprimand
Coach Terry Allen received an official reprimand from the Big 12 Conference yesterday for comments made about officials after the Kansas-Missouri game Saturday. For the first offense, the reprimand does not include a fins.
"It a get-out-of-jail-free card, I guess," Allen
Missouri coach larry Smith also could be reprimanded. He has been reprimanded once, and the second reprimand would include a $5,000 fine.
"I'll be ready any time," Alexander said. "I hope nothing happens to Zac, but in case something happens, I'll be able to come in and take control."
Alexander is just as confident in himself as Allen is in him.
there should we have an injury."
Commentary
Athletes improving classroom standing
Maybe you sit next to an offensive lineman in English. Perhaps you have to crane your neck to see around a women's basketball center in a history class. In short, athletes at the University of Kansas are also students.
And they've been studying, taking tests and meeting the same academic requirements as other students.
On a recent list in the NCAA News, Kansas had more GTE/CoSIDA Academic All-Americans than any school except Nebraska and Notre Dame.
Kansas tied Georgia with 34, while 43 Notre Dame athletes received the distinction and 77 Nebraska scholar athletes were Academic All-Americans.
The success of Jay-
The success of bay hawks as students is no accident.
"Quality student athletes are going to be attracted to a school that has a reputation for doing things the right way and has a good academic support center," said Amy Perko, associate athletics director and senior woman administrator.
Perko was a two-time Academic All-American basketball players at Wake Forest.
Like Perko, Maria Abatjoglou twice was named Academic All-American. Abatjoglou completed her tennis eligibility at Kansas last spring and is scheduled to graduate in May.
The NCAA recently announced Abatjoglou is one of 10 finalists for the 1998 NCAA Woman of the Year award.
In addition to individual honors, teams have improved academically in recent semesters.
In Fall 1995, football bottomed out with a
1. 95 grade point average — the entire team had below a Average.
But Terry Allen was hired as the football coach two years ago, and things have begun to change.
Both Bob Frederick, athletics director, and Paul Buskirk, associate athletics director who is in charge of student support services, said the football team was improving.
In Spring 1998, the football team's GPA was 2.37.
During the same semester, the about 450 student athletes who compete for Kansas had an average GPA of 2.86 — higher than any semester in the 12 years listed by the department.
The reasons for the academic success by students who spend hours practicing and preparing for games are threefold.
First, as Perko said, many athletes were successful students before they came to Kansas.
Jacque Vaughn comes to mind when one thinks of focused individuals who succeeded in competition and the classroom.
Second, coaches are setting high standards for their players. Finally, the Athletics Department provides a strong student support headed by Buskirk.
Student athletes receive degree and career counseling; access to tutors who teach learning skills in addition to subject matter; and support in their daily life with a variety of programming.
"There is no excuse as an athlete at this school not to do well." Anbatoglu said.
That's a lesson all students at the University should learn. The athletics department and Kansas student athletes should be complimented for their academic achievements and should be encouraged to continue to improve.
Friedrichs is a Bremen graduate student in journalism.

Daily phone calls, mail: The life of a recruit in demand

Kansan Sportswriter
Editor's note: This is the first in a series of articles about the recruitment of a high school athlete through the eyes of the player. Kansas sportswriter Randy Witheres will talk to Jason Rose, a high school football player, throughout the season to observe his progress as a player to give you an inside look at the world of college recruiting.

Recruiting is the lifeblood of college football
With most athletes using up their eligibility in four or five years, Kansas coaches comb every inch of this country (and sometimes beyond) to find future players for their teams.
We have not identified the schools recruiting Jason Rowe at his request.
High school seniors are inundated with mail, phone calls and various other media, extolling the virtues of universities and their athletics programs.
NCAA RULES FOR RECRUITING HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL PLAYERS
Rowe is an offensive and defensive tackle at Shawnee Mission Northwest High School in Shawnee. Only 17 years old, Rowe stands 6-feet-3-inches tall and weighs 270 pounds.
One of those sought-after seniors is Jason Rowe
Phone calls: No calls are allowed before Sept. 1 of an athlete's senior year. At the Division I level, coaches are allowed one call to prospective athletes during May of the individual's junior year.
**Contacts:** Coaches visit prospective athletes off campus. Contacts are not allowed before Dec. 1 or after Jan. 30 of an athlete's senior year in high school. A maximum of seven off-campus contacts are allowed, with no more than one during a given week.
Evaluations: Coaches visit a recruit's high school to attend a practice, watch a game or pick up an academic evaluation. There are 20
days in May of an athlete's junior year and nine days through September, October and November when these visits can take place.
Unofficial visits: These visits by the athlete to college campuses occur during the contact period. Coaches can talk to the player during the visit. All unofficial visits are arranged and paid by the athlete.
"Right now, from a strength and speed
Official visits: During contact period, an athlete is allowed to make a total of five official visits to prospective colleges. These visits are a maximum of 48 hours long. The host football program pays for lodging, transportation, food and entertainment.
situation, I think he's got what they're (Division I programs) looking for," said Bob Jensen, Shawnee Mission Northwest offensive line coach.
Jensen has been working with Rowe for four years and is confident that Rowe can compete at the Division I level. Rowe has received interest from several Division I programs and a number of Division II schools.
Size isn't Rowe's only asset. His abilities as a leader were recognized when his teammates selected him a co-captain. He bench pressed 290 pounds, squatted 375 pounds and lifted 260 pounds in the hang clean.
With unofficial times of 2.9 seconds in the 20-yard dash and 4.8 seconds in the progility drill, he has the explosiveness and agility offensive line coaches look for.
Coaches have begun to call Rowe at home.
"Just last week before our first game, the first coach called my house and talked to me," Rowe said. "He said that he was going to be recruiting me and keeping an eye on him. He told me good luck with the season, and we would keen in touch."
Bow comes across as a bit shy and rather soft-spoken, an unexpected characteristic for someone of such size. Much of
his personality is reflected in how he has stayed humble despite the attention he has received

"All of the letters that I have been getting I had kind of expected, but I never expected a phone call," Rowe said. "I mean, the coach takes time out to call long distance on the phone just to talk to me. Makes me feel kind of special."
In the first game, the Shawnee Mission Northwest Cougars defeated hated rival Shawnee Mission South 24-0. Week two brought a match-up with perennial power Olathe North. The Cougars fought to a halftime stalemate, but the Eagles won 28-16.

Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 7.
Ever feel like you do not have control in your life? You may have that feeling today, but it would not be true because you always have control. The only question is, how much do you want to exert? Sometimes you control things by walking away. Today, follow the urge.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 5.
If you have created a mess, do not despair. You cannot make an omellet without breaking eggs, remember? Sometimes you have to rip upskins before you can put them back together in a better way. Do not stress out about a project that is not finished yet. Keep working.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 6.
You are looking good and are willing to take action. You are decisive today and that helps. If you keep an overall objective in mind, you will know what to do next, and you will have the courage to do it. Just start by getting that objective nailed down. After that, everything will be easy.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is a 5.
Cancer zone 22- July 22, 2019 Conditions are still good for money situations. You are using all your imagination and most of your education to pull off the deal of the century. If you are in sales, you can even contact people who already have said no.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 7.
You are still looking good, and there are fabulous opportunities all around you. This is not always the case, but right now you have a chance to gain fame and fortune. It is not necessarily easy, and will not be winning the lottery.
Virao (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Today is a 5.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 7.
You know the feeling you get when something needs to be taken care of. You are sensitive to that sort of thing. Something is nagging at you. It is such a small detail that nobody else would even notice. But you had better get it done so you can move on to other things by tomorrow.
You want to do something with a group, but obligations are holding you back. The only way you will be able to reach a good compromise is to set priorities. The sun is in Virgo; so you will have to learn the lesson that Virgo is trying to teach you. Virgo is the most organized sign in the zodiac if that gives you a clue.
Sagittarius [Nov. 22-Dec. 21]: Today is an 8
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 4.
Looks like that moment could occur today where you and an authority figure come face to face. You finally have had enough and want to say what is on your mind. Be compassionate, caring, loving and respectful.
Sagmarus (Nov. 22-Dec. 21); Today is an 8.
Your career gets another boost, and opportunities are plentiful. Venture further from your regular routine.
Somebody needs you and what you have to sell, but they will not come to you. It will have to be the other way around.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Today is a 5.
Looks like a secret is leaking out today — something to do with finances, hopefully not yours. If there is an error in your accounting, it is bound to surface soon. Balance your checkbook if it has been a while. There is a surprise concerning money lurking somewhere in your vicinity.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Today is a 5.
Somebody you would like to boss around is not going for it. Do not get too involved in trying to dominate others. It is just not going to work right now. Instead, charm your with wit and brilliant smile.

Ski team third in tournament
Several KU skiers take individual first-place awards
By Amanda Kaschube Special to the Kansan
The setting was perfect: temperatures in the 90s, sun shining and smooth water.
About 150 fans cheered their favorite water skier at Lake MoKane near Eudora last Saturday.
The KU Water Ski team sponsored a tournament with Southern Illinois, Kansas State, Iowa State, Ohio State and Iowa.
Kansas placed third out of six teams, skied well and had fun, said Jeff Clennon. Joiliet, Ill., senior.
Southern Illinois placed first, but several KU skiers took first individually.
At water skiing competitions, each team is allowed five competitors in each of the three events: slalom trick and in
thing flashy to impress the judges.
slalom, trick and jump.
Southern Illinois had an amazing trick team, said Jimmy Spellman. Andover senior and club president.
"We have a lot of returning skiers with lots of experience. Last year, the skiers were just getting their feet wet, but now they're more experienced."
Clennon, team captain, took first place in the slalom by dodging buoys throughout the course. Clennon also won the overall competition and placed third in the jump, by jumping off ramps for distance.
Kelly Brullele, Olathe senior and team co-captain, placed second overall in the jump in the woman's division and ninth in the trick event.
Spellman competed in the tournament but placed lower because of a few falls.
The team has been around for 18 years and competes in tournaments every weekend. This year, the team has about 35 members.
"We have a lot of returning skiers with lots of experience," Clennon said. "Last year, the skiers were just getting their feet wet, but now they're more experienced."
"It depends on the day," Spellman said. "I missed a few things I never miss in practice."
In trick competition, skiers do flips, 360-degree turns and any-

There are 13 active members, five women and eight men, who compete in the tournaments. The women participate in every event, while the men rotate.
As captain of the team, Clennon works more as a coach helping newer members adjust.
Members are given free access
to McKane Lake near Eudora. Members practice as a team from 2 to 5 p.m.
Four years ago, the KU team went to Nationals after winning Regionals. Each year since, the teams has placed third at Regionsals.
On Saturday, the team will travel to Purdue to prepare for the upcoming regional tournament. The top two teams will advance to Nationals from each region.

"The tournament will show us how we will do in Regionals," Spellman said. "We have a good
shot of placing in the top five."
The team will face Iowa the following weekend, leading up to Regionalists at Purdue, Oct. 2-4.
The team is hiring a trainer the week before Regionals.
"The trainer is going to teach us how to ski as a team." Brulley said.
Transfer waits for the OK to play football
Kansas still is trying to clear junior college transfer Kareem Carter to play football.
Carter, who transferred from Santa Monica Community College, met transfer requirements with 48 transferable hours and a junior college degree.
The school must gather a syllabus for the course work during the home schooling.
The alternative is to identify that Carter is a qualifier because he has an 1120 SAT score and a high school GPA of 3.0. However, during one semester of high school, he was home schooled.
However, Kansas policy does not accept transfer hours that are D's for student athletes, leaving Carter about three hours short of courses he needs to be eligible.
Injury Update
Defensive end Dion Johnson suffered a separated shoulder Saturday in the Jayhawk's loss to Missouri and will not play this weekend.
- Free safety Chad Coellner also suffered a partially separated shoulder in Saturday's game, and it is doubtful that he will play this weekend, coach Terry Allen said:

Volleyball home debut set to continue winning
By Laura Bokenkroger
Kansan sportswriter
Last year, the Kansas volleyball team had lost four matches when it opened at home in the Jayhawk Classic.
This season, the Jayhawks are 7-1 going into their Allen Field House debut against San Francisco in the Jayhawk Classic at 7 p.m. Friday.
But that isn't the only difference from last season.
So far this year, the Jayhawks have recorded the second best start in school history.
They broke the record for consecutive games won in the beginning of a season with their 13-0 start.
They finished first in the Eastern Michigan Early Bird Tournament and second in the Doubletree Guest Suites Classic.
"It was a battle the whole way," defensive specialist Kristi Kiyabu said. "It was just a matter of which team could put it down faster. We wish we could've won that game, but we showed that we could bounce back by beating Eastern Michigan after that."
Although the Jayhawks picked up their first loss at the tournament, dropping three straight games to Kentucky, they were able to extract some positives from that match.
Coach Ray Bechard said that the Jayhawks showed improvements in areas they had been working on but that they struggled with fundamental skills.
"There were some things we were doing well that we may have let down on a little bit by focusing on those areas where we needed some work," Bechard said. "It's good that we've made some adjustments, but passing and serving has to be an everyday skill."
Beachard said that his team gave up too many aces serves. The lapse in passing and missing their own serves at critical moments also cost them, he said.
But the Jayhawks' momentum hasn't slowed, and the focus hasn't changed.
tier in the Big 12 Conference is still the ultimate destination.
The goal the team set in the preseason of moving into the middle
Bechard said that his team has been using practice time and the experience from these matches to help achieve that goal.
"Prior to conference games, we're trying to simulate how valuable the ball is in each and every possession," Bechard said. "We want to be more efficient on first-ball side outs, using the first opportunity we have to attack to end the play."
But the Jayhawks also have a more immediate goal. This goal they have been anticipating since the beginning of practice in August, winning the home opener.
"We don't have anything spectacular to show." Kiyabu said. "We just want to show fans what we've been working on."
Bechard said that fan support definitely was something they were looking forward to.
"If we play like we should and we do things the best we can and with it being a new season with a new staff, then it should raise the level of curiosity," Bechard said.

Commentary
For this week, let us turn our eyes and ears much nearer to home, specifically the Lawrence-Kansas City area.
The Wizards face a crucial game this week, a match against its biggest rivals, the Dallas Burn. The two teams are in a near dead heat for the final spot in the Western Conference playoffs.
Glamorous as the international game may be, nothing can replace the highs and lows of a home team and a live experience at the stadium. In these parts, that means the Kansas City Wizards of Major League Soccer.
Dallas is two points ahead, but the Wizards have one more game to play than the Burn. The outcome of Saturday night's game could determine which team makes it to the next round.
Because it is the last regular season home game, a loss probably would make it the last home game of the year.
For those of you who have never been to a Wizards game, there are a variety of experiences available. In the reserved seats along the sidelines, people are, well, reserved. In the general admission section, there are fans
trying to create an international socer atmosphere. The Fanties (a Wizards' unofficial fan club) and the KC Samba Band have KU students in their membership.

the Wizards. The stadium is a 45 minute drive from Lawrence, due east on I-70.
Soccer is harder to come by on Lawrence TV than in many other
places. If you don't have cabel, then you're restricted to MLS games and U.S. National Team games shown on ABC.
Sunflower Cablevision meets the soccer fan halfway by providing ESPN, ESPN2, Fox Sports Rocky Mountain and Pay-Per-View.
Obviously, this is not enough for a fan of the game.
Fox Sports Rocky Mountain, while showing less soccer than virtually every other Fox Sports regional network, does show English Premier League highlights, plus the majority of one featured game at 8 p.m. Sundays. There is also weekly English Premier League live on Pay-Per-View (10 a.m. Sundays).
ESPN and ESPN2 show a good number of MLS and U.S. National Team games, plus Champions' League coverage, which begins today.
If this is not enough, circumventing cable and going the Digital Satellite System route is the way to go. On DISH Network you can purchase Fox Sports Americas and Telemundo which gets you a lot of soccer from all around the world and lots of truly awful telenovels to boot.
ican League and Mexican national team matches, and whose coverage features the spectacular Andres Cantor (you know, "GOOOOOOAL!" is included in DISHs larger basic package. However, all of these channels are in Spanish.

The granddaddy of them all, Fox Sports World, is unavailable in Lawrence, unless you have a large satellite dish. If we had Fox Sports World, then there would be almost 24-hour soccer from around the world on TV. Further, in keeping with their stone-age view of their membership, Sunflower Cablevision does not carry Univision. We must band together to change this.
If enough soccer fans (and Spanish speakers in general) ask Sunflower to add these channels, they will. So, call Sunflower Cablevision today and ask them to add Univision and Fox Sports World. Get your friends to call. You have nothing to lose but the chains of cable that keep you from watching soccer.

Players discuss complaints about tough workload
Rams confront coach
Pierron is an Olathe senior in political science.
The Associated Press
ST.LOUIS It wasn't exactly a mutiny,but the St. Louis Rams players have asked coach Dick Vermeil to lighten up on the practices and meetings.
Broadcast reports this weekend said the Rams were threatening mutiny against Vermell for his notoriously long practices and meetings. That didn't happen, but unhappiness with the workload was part of the discussion at players-only meetings Friday and Monday.
if the workload was decreased. The Rams are 0-2 after losing 38-31 to the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday. They haven't had a winning season since 1989.
"Maybe with a little more rest, we can come out a little criser." Gandy said.
Vermeil said there might be room for compromise.
After the Monday discussion, Vermilw was called in to hear the complaints.

Tackle Wayne Gandy said players thought they might be a little fresher at the start of games
"I'm not going to jeopardize what it takes to have them prepared to play, but there's always
things you need. Vermeil's tough daily regimen has drawn complaints since training camp. One player told the St Louis Post-Dispatch prior to the season that there might be a revolt if the team started slowly and Vermeil didn't ease up.
Gandy said, "I'm not going to sit
here and second-guess him because we have been playing hard. But the most important part of the game seems to be the first 10 minutes, and that's where we're lacking."
NBA cancels orientations
The Associated Press
Both were postponed indefinitely yesterday.
NEW VORK — Training camp for referees and the rookie orientation program are the latest casualties of the NBA lockout.
"Until we have a better idea of when the season may start, there is no point in conducting training camp for the referees or holding a transition program for rookies." NBA commissioner Russ Granki said.
The reefees' camp was to begin Sept. 25. The four-day rookie program was to start Sept. 20.
Last week, the NBA called off a game for the first time because of a labor dispute — the exhibition between the Miami Heat and Israel's top team, Maccabi Elite. The game was scheduled for Oct. 12 in Tel Aviv.
The regular season is scheduled to begin Nov. 21.

Melee follows Sosa's 62nd homer
Several fans claim to be rightful owners of ball
The Associated Press
CHICAGO - The home-run battle between Sammy Sosa and Mark McGwire is nothing compared to the fierce tussle behind Wrigley Field for Slamming Sammy's blasts into the streets surrounding the stadium.
When Sammy Sosa launched his 62nd home run onto Waveland Avenue on Sunday, dozens of fans made a pile, bit, kicked and punched until one guy emerged with the baseball.
Three people now claim to be the rightful owner, but police said Monday that possession is ten-tenthsf of the law in this case, and whoever has the ball now can keep it.
"Only in Chicago," said Cindy Lance, a police representative, who said the affair no longer was considered a police matter.
The homer left lumps on fans, and Sosa tied McGwire, of the St. Louis Cardinal, for the major league home-run lead.
As Sosa closed in on the home run record of 61 set by Roger Maris in 1961, the crowd outside the ballpark swelled to the hundreds.
When Sosa hit No. 61 in the fifth inning Sunday, John Witt grabbed the ball and hid in a van after outrunning the pack of ball-catchers outside the
Witt also won fame a few years ago for appearing in a Spike Lee Nike commercial.
park.
When Sosa hit that homer, Bob Milkovich was watching the game on TV at home with his wife, who is 81/2 months pregnant. He had stayed close to home in recent days but wanted to be at Wrigley Field in case Sosa hit another.
"I says, 'Honey, you mind if I go for a bike ride?'"
She didn't, and off Milkovich went, armed with a pager, cellular phone, tiny TV and camera with telephoto lens.
CUBS
Fans were
crowded around Milkovich's 2-by-2 television screen when Sosa hit the ninth-inning blast to tie McGwire's record-breaking mark.
"It looked like we had the winner," Milkovich said.
So I'm running to my left with the TV in my hand, and everybody following me. The ball just kind of streamed over, and when it hits the alley, there's just a sea of people," he said.
"There's a group of people just immersed over somebody who got the ball. Usually, somebody gets a ball, the struggle stops. But in this situation, I think there were dollar signs," he said. "This was the biggest home-run ball you'd ever catch."
The battle continued until one man, later identified as Brendan Cunningham, 33, emerged with the ball hidden under his shirt, escaped the crowd and took off.
"As he's running away from me, 500 people took off after him," Milkovich said. "It was pretty scary."
Cunningham found some police officers half a mile from the park, and they whisked him away for protection.
Delivery truck driver Gary "Moe" Mullins, who claimed to have grabbed the ball first, later showed up at a police station to complain that he had been robbed of the ball. Police at the station said Mullins, 47, was bitten, kicked and appeared to have a broken hand.
Mullins later said he was considering a civil lawsuit to recover the ball.
To further complicate matters, a 15-year-old juvenile also is claiming to be the first person to catch the ball.
There may be no real way to prove who has No. 62. After McGwire broke the record, Major League Baseball stopped putting a secret code on balls pitched to him and Sosa.
"Now you know how Elvis and the Beatles felt. Or the running of the bulls in Pamplona, Spain," Milkovich said. "I never did that, but I did it yesterday."
McGwire's signed bat hits home run with Marino's son
The Associated Press
DAVIE, Fla. — What kind of birthday present does the NFL's all-time leading passer give to a 9-year-old that has everything?
How about an autographed bat from Mark McGwire?
Wracking his brain to come up with a gift for son Joey's birthday last July 26, Miami Dolphins quarterback Dan Marino thought of McGwire.
13 jersey was waiting for McGwire's son Matt when the Cardinals returned from the road trip.
Joey was a fan of the St. Louis Cardinals slugger long before this year's assault on Roger Maris' record of 61 home runs in a season. So Marino tracked McGwire down on a road trip in San Francisco.
"Joey got so excited when I gave him the bat a few days later on
McGwire's brother, Dan, was Marino's backup with the Dolphins in 1985, but the two record-holders never met before Marino called.
"I think what I appreciate most is how [Mark McGwire] has handled the whole thing and the way he has conducted himself with all the attention he has gotten. The way he's so gracious dealing with the press and the public just shows that he's a class act."
his birthday," said Marino, whose 48 touchdown passes in 1984 may be football's equivalent to McGwire's 62 homers. "Watching Joey get so excited when he got that bat was a special thrill for me as well."
Dan Marino Miami Dolphins quarterback
In return, an autographed Dolphins No.
"Irecognized his voice from those Isotoner glove commercials," McGwire said. Since then, Marino said, he followed McGwire's chase of Maris closely.
"I not only watched him because I'm a fan, but also because my kids love watching it, too." Marino said. "We were all excited when he hit that (record-breaking)
homer.
"I think what I appreciate most is how he has handled the whole thing, and the way he has conducted himself with all the attention he has gotten. The way he's so gracious dealing with the press and the public just shows that he's a class act."

Marv Albert makes a big comeback
Sometimes nothing catches their attention
Use white space to your advantage when designing your ad. It's an attention better.
Former announcer returns to broadcast in highlights show
Kansan
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Marv Albert's back, and this time it is not in a lurid tabloid headline about his sex life.
A visibly nervous Albert made his return to broadcasting Monday night, anchoring a sports highlight show for the Madison Square Garden cable network. The network accepted his resignation one year earlier following the scandal that made him a national punch line.
Late Show with David Letterman, but it was a start.
It was far from his peak as NBC's lead basketball announcer, a frequent guest on the Today show and
"Great to be back, I'm Marv
Albert, thanks for tuning in," he
said at the 60 minute show's conclusion, his only reference to his forced sabbatical.
NBC fired Albert last year after he pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor assault charge. He was accused of throwing his former girlfriend on a bed in a Virginia hotel room in February, biting her on the back more than a dozen times and forcing her to perform

Sitting alone behind a desk,
Albert introduced a new version of
the show. MSG Sports Desk.
The lapel of Albert's gray sports jacket shook slightly as he read sports results. He appeared rusty, announcing one baseball score as 3-0 when an on-screen graphic read 7-0.
"I'm still trying to figure out some of the mechanics, but I'm told they know what to do in the control room," he said.
Albert led a long, awkward interview with New York Yankees announcer Jim Kaat but seemed more comfortable bantering with sportswriter Steve Serby about New York's losing football teams.
"I'm still trying to figure out some of the mechanics, but I'm told they know what to do in the control room."
Only then did Albert briefly flash his cutting sense of humor.
"Let's not get crazy, Steve," he told Serby when the sportswriter suggested he and Albert could do a better job tackling than the New York Jets.
Albert stiffened, however, when Serby said he wanted to welcome Albert back and reached under his desk for a memento. It was an old, dirty baseball — not hit by Mark McGwire or Sammy Sosa — but what Serby said was the 12th year

run of the New York Mets' Edgardo Alfonzo.
Going into a commercial break, Albert flipped the ball back at Serby with barely the hint of a smile.
Albert may have to wait awhile to fulfill the second part of his contract with MSG and resurrect his signature "yes!" call. He is supposed to announce half of the New York Knicks basketball games on radio, but the NBA lockout makes the start of the basketball season uncertain.

NHL players sharpen up for season
Shanahan bulks up during off-season
The Associated Press
The opposition won't have Brendan Shanahan to kick around this season. The Detroit Red Wings' forward bulked up with the help of a personal trainer during the summer.
"This is the strongest I've ever felt," Shanahan said Monday at the Red Wings' training camp in Traverse City, Mich. "I did a lot of upper-body, lower-body and trunk work this summer. I really focused on getting a strong torso.
"I'm 29 years old. When you start creeping up around 30, you pay a little more attention to detail with the little things you do in the off season. Hopefully, the hard work will pay off."
Shanahan insisted that too much had been made of the back problems that bothered him during the Stanley Cup playoffs last season. He was limited to nine points in 20 games — about half his production from the year before.
"To be honest with you, two weeks
after the last game my back was fine, and it has been ever since," Shanahan said.
The playoffs were almost a reflection of the season for Shanahan. He went from 47 goals and 41 assists two seasons ago to 28 goals and 29 assists last season.
"He went through some frustrating times last season," assistant coach Dave Lewis said. "You could see it on the bench; you could see it in the games."
Part of the reason for Shanahan's decreased production may have been the defensive demands that coach Scotty Bowman put on his forwards.
"I think he sacrificed some offense to play solid defense and that's a credit to him," Lewis said.

Predators
The expansion Predators are on ice for the first time in Nashville, Tenn. The Predators are playing all their exhibition games on the road. They want the first hockey game in the Nashville Arena to be for real.

The New York Islanders, who are trying to break their lease at Nassau County Coliseum, are investigating sites for home games. They've talked to the New Jersey Devils and the
New York Rangers about playing in those teams' buildings and might go to Hartford, Conn., too.

"There's a chance I won't be ready for opening day," Arnott told the Bergen (N.J.) Record. "If not, it will be

because of the finger and not because I'm out of shape."
Mighty Ducks
Defenseman Fredrik Olausson, a free-agent acquisition by the Anaheim Mighty Ducks, has yet to be cleared for on-ice workouts because he was found to have an enlarged spleen.
Meanwhile, general manager Pierre Gauthier said he had decided against offering a contract to defenseman Drew Bannister, a restricted free agent.
Rangers
Leetch working on a contract extension. The all-star defenseman is entering the final year of a seven-year contract that will pay him $3.72 million this season, and general manager Nell Smith reportedly is preparing a new offer.
I do feel that pressure where a larger contract for me helps all the players by raising the average salary ...for defensemen around the league." Leetch told the New York Post at training camp in Burlington, Vt.
Defenseman Sandis Ozollinsh was the only no-show at the Colorado Avalanche training camp in Colorado Springs, Colo.
Avalanche
Bruins
General manager Pierre Lacroix told the Rocky Mountain News that he had made an offer to agent Paul Theofanous months ago but said he had yet to receive a counterproposal.
Dennis Vaske, a free agent who signed last week with the Bruins after eight years with the New York Islanders, said he had recovered from the post-concussion syndrome that limited him to only 19 games last season.

Committee still unsure if video should be public
WASHINGTON — House Judiciary Committee members held intense private discussions yesterday debating the release of a potentially embarrassing videotape of President Clinton's grand jury testimony Aug.17.
The Associated Press
Republicans pushed to make it public this week, while Democrats have opposed releasing a tape that would show Clinton's demeanor as he answered questions about his sexual conduct.
Rep. Zoe Lofgren, D-Calif, said it
concerned her that some lawmak-
White House advisers were concerned that Republicans would use the tape in political advertisements if it were made public.
Committee members also discussed a quick release of Monica Lewinsky's testimony about her sexual relationship with Clinton.
were rushing to release materials when the panel has until Sept. 28 to do so.
A House Democratic staff source, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the two parties had an informal agreement not to release additional sexually explicit material, information on Secret Service operations, material that
would jeopardize criminal investigations or information that would harm innocent parties, but it was unclear if it meant Clinton's videotape would not be released in its entirety.
YOUNG BUSH
Gingrich: Says the committee will be given more time.
yesterday that when the House finishes legislative business this year, it would not formally adjourn, allowing the Judiciary Committee to continue its inquiry into Clinton's conduct after the
election and so the House could be summoned back if necessary.
"But we expect the House to employ the video in a responsible way so that it doesn't get misused," he said.
Gingrich said he hoped the committee would make a bipartisan decision about whether to proceed with an impeachment inquiry.
Presidential spokesman Mike McCurry said the president's advisers expected a transcript of the grand jury testimony would be made available.

Mindful of China's sensitivity about criticism of its human-rights record, Robinson said she concentrated on laying the groundwork for future cooperation with the U.N. Human Rights Commission. Beijing apparently was pleased with her careful approach.
But Xu Wenli, a Beijing-based activist, said Robinson's visit failed to promote human rights and noted that authorities continued to detain and harass citizens during her stay.

Working abroad creates memories
By Steph Brewer Kansan staff writer
While in Ireland, Luckert traveled to other places, such as this bay by the city of Connemara. Contributed by
Working at the local McDonald's doesn't always make for an exciting summer. With that in mind, many college students seek employment elsewhere. Some even leave the country to find a job.
Work-abroad programs vary from those that simply obtain visas for students to those that find students actual jobs. Some students who work abroad forgo all services and find a job the same way they would in the United States - by looking in the newspaper.
This was the case with University of Kansas graduate Laurie Hudson. She was in Guadalajara, Mexico last summer when she noticed advertisements for native-English speakers in a newspaper. She moved to Mexico City to work
Hudson found a job at an English school.
"All my students are so sweet," she said via e-mail. "They kiss me on the cheek when they leave class and thank me for teaching them English."
Not everyone has the advantage of already being in a foreign country. For students in this position, work abroad programs help students who want to
Noel
work abroad.
The Council on International Educational Exchange sends about 3,000 students abroad each year, said Jason Thomas, travel counselor for Council Travel 622 W
12th St. CIEEM sends students to their respective countries with a visa. They don't find jobs for the students but do offer guidance. Thomas, Wichita senior and former CIEEM participant, said most students found a job three or four days.
This approach may scare some students, but it does add to the excitement.
"You show up in Australia with a visa in your hand, and the country's yours." Thomas said.
"It's very different from an organized study program." Thomas said. "You're expected to be independent. Council doesn't hold your hand."
Atlanta senior Noeleen Luckert's summer was an adventure in the true sense of the word.
Luckert chose instead a program called Global Staffing, which is owned by a couple in her hometown. This year, they sent American students abroad for the first time to work at a hotel in Adare, Ireland.
Luck.
ert said the hotel didn't provide enough beds for the staff, fed them left-overs and didn't repair the washing machines and driers when they broke.
...
Luckert quit her job and spent the rest of the summer in the Netherlands.
Students who specifically want a teaching job can use CIEE's Teach in China or Japan Exchange and Teaching Program.

JET sends more than 5,000 people from 34 countries to teach in Japan, said Amy Rosenberg, JET program coordinator at the Japanese Consulate in Kansas City, Mo.
The program also sends a number of people to work in government offices, but most are assistant teachers for foreign language classes. Rosenberg said the Kansas City consulate sent 50 people per year most of which are KU graduates.
JET pays for plane tickets and an orientation. Participants also receive a salary of about $30,000 a year.
Rosenberg, a past participant, said the Japanese teachers usually were open to working with their foreign assistants.
JET will hold informational meetings at 11 a.m. and 3 p.m. Sept. 24 at the Kansas Union.
Graduate student Patrick Carriere spent three years teaching in Japan through JET. He said that although it was intimidating at first due to the language barrier, he enjoyed the challenge.
Another option for college graduates is the AIESEC program, which arranges jobs for students all around the world, said Jim Kelly, president of the local committee for AIESEC Kansas.
The participants are placed in management positions in 87 countries. All living costs are paid, and participants also earn a stipend.
This year, no KU students are participating in the program, but Kelly said AIESEC would conduct two recruitment drives to attract participants for next year.
KU police cars use video as evidence
Cameras tape stops to record for cases of sobriety, others
By Kelli Raybern
Kansan staff writer
When you get stopped by the police on campus, be aware that you are on camera.
All of the police vehicles of the KU Public Safety Office have in-car cameras to record their stons.
"We've had one camera in each car since about last year or so," said Sgt. Troy Mallen of the KU Public Safety Office. The office purchased two cameras in March 1985 and two in May 1997, so that all four patrol units are now equipped, Mallen said.
Anna Lambertson, Raleigh, N.C., senior, did not know about the cameras and questioned whether their use violated individual rights.
"How can they tape you and use it as evidence if you don't know you're going to be taped?" she said. "I find it disturbing. They need to let people know that they have cameras."
"When you are out in a public setting, you don't necessarily have that expectation of privacy," he said.
Mailen said that the cameras did not violate reasonable expectations of privacy.
Any time an officer turns on the sirens, you could be on tape.
"Whenever we activate the overheads, the camera activates as well so we can document the incident on tape," Mailen said.
But just because there are no sirens, don't assume that the camera isn't rolling.
"When they activate the transmitter, that activates the camera," Mailen said.
The police officers also carry a remote audio-feed.
The tapes are sometimes
used as evidence in drunk-driving cases, Mailen said, because officers usually tape sobriety tests.
They are admissible as evidence in court, for or against the person who was pulled over.
"The city prosecutor and defense attorneys often ask for copies," Mailen said.
He said that since he became head of the Public Safety Office's Community Education and Media unit in June, three tapes had been requested.
"It's not too frequent, but there has been some interest," Mailen said. "I've had one request for the city prosecutor, and the last two have been for the defense side."
The tapes are not only used as legal evidence, however. They are also used to analyze performance within the department.
The tapes are a good tool for officers, Mailen said, since they can view and critique their own stops.
The department also has used the tapes to respond to questions of its performance from outside the department.
Mailen said that a complaint about the manner in which an officer responded to a fire alarm call had been resolved using the tapes.
There was some concern brought up about how the officer drove through the parking lot, Mailen said.
"We viewed the tape and found that the officer was within department guidelines," he said.
The Public Safety Office then was able to go to the complainant with the tape.
The complainant's concerns were resolved, Mailen said, since when he viewed the tape he agreed that the officer's actions were appropriate.
With the evidence before him, the complainant realized things had happened differently than he had remembered, Mailen said.

Local cable TV service to add Spanish channel this winter
By Mariana Paiva
Vancouver staff writer
Kansan staff writer
Sunflower Cablevision will add a Spanish-language channel when it upgrades its system in December.
This year, faculty and graduate teaching assistants in the department of Spanish and Portuguese have distributed fliers urging students interested in a Spanish channel to contact Sunflower Cablevision. 721 Wakarusa Drive, Suite C.
"We received a tremendous amount of response from the public," said Dan McGough, general manager of Sunflower Cablevision.
McGough said that the cable company was negotiating to select the best Spanish channel, and that the contract would be announced officially in about a month.
The fliers were circulated after a Sound Off piece in the Aug. 15 Lawrence Journal-World criticized Sunflower Cablevision's failure to add a Spanish-language network during recent channel additions. McGough responded that there was not enough demand for a Spanish channel.
McGougain since has said he had worked for the company only about a month when
he was interviewed and then was unfamiliar with Lawrence subscribers.
Starting in December, 4,000 subscribers will receive the Spanish channel each month, McGough said.
Several new channels will be added to the cable company's service in the technological upgrade, but the Spanish channel will be the only foreign-language channel added.
Antonio Simoes, associate professor of Spanish and Portuguese, said he would recommend the channel to his students.
"The Hispanic community here is small, but there is a need for it. The key word now is globalization. I always tell my students, 'Learning a language is relatively easy, but to understand the culture is a problem,'" he said. "Every year, I see people in the department talking and doing something to have a Spanish channel in Lawrence. I totally agree with them."
According to the 1990 Census, Lawrence has 1,191 Hispanic residents, including KU students, although the figure does not necessarily reflect Spanish speakers. The Office of International Student Services has 190 students registered from Latin America and Spain. Additionally, 2,214
---
students currently are enrolled in Spanish classes.
Mariana Hinojosa, Hutchinson junior and a first-generation Mexican-American, said that even students who spoke Spanish could enjoy a Spanish channel because it opened a door to another culture.
I miss watching the Spanish channel, I really do. When I go to Hutchinson, that is all I watch. I think that is great that soon I can watch it here," Hinojosa said. "It also keeps me well-informed about what is going on in Mexico and in Latin America."
Paola Belaire, graduate teaching assistant in Spanish, said teachers could record programs from the Spanish channel to use in their classes.
Todd Hernandez, graduate teaching assistant in Spanish, said that a Spanish channel would be a good opportunity for students to contextualized the Spanish they learned during class.
Senate challenges theaters
Kansan staff writer
Bv Seth Jones
A resolution to take on Hollywood Theaters for what Student Senate says are inflated prices passed unanimously through committee meetings last night.
The resolution, presented by Partha Mazumdar, graduate senator, asks Senate to encourage strongly that Hollywood Theaters either continue providing a discount theater or offer a 30 percent discount to all Lawrence students.
Hollywood Theaters decided not to renew its lease on Hillcrest 5 Theatres, 925 Iowa St. It expires Sept. 27, and if the theater closes, there will be no discount theater in Lawrence.
Amy Cummins, graduate senator,
spoke in favor of the bill.
John Day, pharmacy senator, said he was frustrated with the way Hollywood Theatres had treated KU students.
"KU students are an integral part of the community, and they need to speak out to businesses on behalf of their best interests," she said.
"I think it's become a monopoly in this town," he said. "This corporation is out just to make money, and they're
not even thinking about the students." Day said that he talked with Maria Abatjoglou, one of three senators who submitted the resolution, about continuing the fight against Hollywood Theaters if it did not respond to Senate's requests.
"We're not going to do any protests or sit-ins," Day said. "But we will get in contact with other cities with Hollywood theaters and talk to them to get other student senates to pass similar resolutions."
Cummins added that a boycott also may become necessary.
"We'll start with creating as much bad publicity as possible, and the last case scenario will be to boycott," she said.
In other action, the University Affairs Committee debated whether Senate should finance the KU American Civil Liberties Union.
Some members of the committee were opposed to financing the group because they claimed the group was partisan. The bill, which asked Senate for $307 for advertising, postage, copying and office supplies, was denied.
Deidre Backs, off-campus senator and University Affairs Committee member, said she thought those who voted against the resolution did so
"KU students are an integral part of the community, and they need to speak out to businesses on behalf of their best interests."
Amy Cummins graduate senator
because they did not support Delta Force, one of the coalitions that ran for Student Senate seats last spring.
"This got shot down because ACLU is involved with Delta Force," she said. "There is no sane reason not to support ACLU — there are just vindictive senators that don't like Delta Force."
Ton Moore. University Affairs Committee member, opposed the bill because it was for a partisan group.
"Funding this group would have been a very dangerous thing for Senate to do," he said.
Performance embraces diversity

Multicultural issues expressed by humor in 'Faces of America'
By Steph Brewer
Kansan staff writer
The "Faces of America" presented last night at the Lied Center, all had different accents, different ethnic backgrounds and different life experiences. But they were all American.
It was with this premise that actress Fran de Leon addressed the issue of multiculturalism in America through her portrayal of eight different characters. Nearly 500 people, mostly University of Kansas students and some high school students, attended the one-woman show which was written and directed by Colin Cox. The event, which was presented in association with the University of Kansas TRIO programs day of festivities, was free.
By changing clothing, background drapes and music, de Leon transformed herself from characters such as a Japanese/European Las Vegas girl to a Native American lawyer, to an Indian rape victim. All of her characters asserted the fact that underneath it all, they were American.
"We're not Generation X," de Leon said. "We're the spontaneous generation, we're chaotic, we're fuzzy logic. In fuzzy logic, there is no black and white."
Using true stories, de Leon shared peoples' experiences of mixed ethnic background in our country. The stories challenge how today's students are perceived as "Generation X."
The characters addressed the stereotypes that are placed on them, often in humorous ways. Playing the first character, de Leon told the story of a half Japanese, half European girl. To illustrate the stereotypes some Americans have of nonwhites, she related an anecdote of being approached in a restaurant and being asked, very slowly, where
she was from. When she said Las Vegas, she said the man asking looked disappointed.
Graduate student Steve Russos said the show was interesting and thought provoking.
"I like how she emphasized that we're all in this together," he said. "She seemed to tie a lot of strings together."
"I'm sorry, I wish I could be exotic for you, but I'm from Vegas," she said.
Irad Orduna, Pomono, Calif., sophomore, commented on de Leon's humorous approach.
"It's kind of a comedy so people could laugh about it and not get too uptight about the racial issues," he said.
Stephanie Victor, who was on the TRIO day planning committee, said that she thought the portrayals were accurate.
"I think a lot of people could identify one way or another with one of the characters," she said. "Each of the characters might embody a piece of us."

Cancer ordeal related by academic's narrative
William G. Bartholome, professor in the department of philosophy of medicine, will speak at 6 tonight in 31:40 Wescoe Hall about his experiences living with cancer.
about his experience learning with us. The speech, "Living in the Light of Death," is an illness-narrative, which is an autobiography that centers on a person's illness. He offers the perspective of both a doctor and a cancer patient.
Bartholome said the idea was to impart his personal experience of living with the illness.
He was diagnosed with Adeno Carcinoma of the Esophagus during June 1994. At that time the tumor had spread to the lymph nodes in his chest and had formed a lesion in his liver. Bartholome's cancer was in stage four — beyond the phases that chemother- any or surgery could reverse.
But Bartholome has lived longer than was expected, prompting him to write about his illness.
He has been sharing his perspectives with medical students, hospice meetings and the public.
"Regular folks are much better able to hear what I'm talking about than health care officials," Bartholome said.

Elevator door damage may be from vandalism
The KU Public Safety Office still is investigating an elevator door that fell from the seventh floor in Ellsworth Hall.
Police said that between 10 and 11:45 p.m. Saturday, the door from the seventh floor lobby fell or was kicked in.
"The door to the lobby was off track, and fell onto the elevator car," said Sgt. Troy Mailen. "We're still looking into the cause, whether it was equipment failure or actual criminal damage."
"It appears some one knocked the door off track."
Phil Garito, head of maintenance for the housing department, said that the damage was suspicious.
The damage to the elevator was estimated at $1,901. It would have been $600 to $1,200 higher if the elevator door had been salvageable, Garito said.
Garito said the problem had nothing to do with the age of the elevator and that the housing department had replaced elevator doors in the past because of vandalism.
No one was in the elevator when the door fell. However, Gitario said that it was not likely anyone would have been hud in the incident.
"The chances of crushing the elevator and injuring someone are pretty slim." he said.
Garito said it was more likely that the vandals would have hurt themselves.
"Fortunately, they didn't follow the
door down the track," he said.

Court says Phelps, son can't avoid prosecution
TOPEKA — Anti-gay preacher Fred Phelps Sr. and his son should not be allowed to avoid prosecution by claiming acts of alleged intimidation against a Topeka lawyer are free speech and religious rights protected by the Constitution, a prosecutor told the state Supreme Court yesterday.
But Phelps, well known for his crusade against homosexuals, said Shawnee County District Attorney Joan Hamilton sought to criminalize his religion.
He said Lyon County Judge Melvin Gradert rightly dismissed two counts of aggravated intimidation of a witness or victim against him and his son. Jonathan, in May 1997 by finding no probable cause existed to sustain the charges.
Hamilton and Phelps argued their positions in an appeal brought by the state seeking to reinstate the intimidation charges and a misdemeanor disorderly conduct charge brought by Hamilton in 1993.

Tensions high between Iran and Afghanistan
ISLAMABAD, Pakistan — Opposition fighters said yesterday that they had recaptured the key central Afghanistan town of Bamiyan, a claim the Taliban religious army disputed.
In neighboring Iran, nine divisions with tanks and artillery headed for Afghanistan's border, joining the bulk of 70,000 troops that took part in maneuvers along the border earlier this month, Iran's official Islamic Republic News Agency reported.
Tensions between Iran and Afghanistan have been running high because of the Taliban's admission this month that its soldiers killed nine Iranians in a battle for the northern Afghan city of Mazar-e-Sharif in August.
Foreign Minister Kamal Kharrazi told Tehran radio yesterday that before Iran took military action because of the deaths, it had to provide an opportunity for political and peaceful solutions.
The Tailian said yesterday it was ready to negotiate a peace treaty with Iran but warned that its arsenal was a formidable one that included Scud missiles.
There was no independent confirmation of the claims by the opposition and the Taliban about the capture of Bamiyan, located in a province with the same name. Rocket attacks forced aid workers to evacuate the town months ago.
The Taliban, which controls 90 percent of the country, drove the opposition from the mountain-ring city Sunday. But opposition spokesman Hezb-e-Wahadat said the Taliban had now been forced out.

Officers target drugged driving
By Kelli Raybern
Kansan staff writer
Around the nation, law enforcement officers are being trained to detect drivers who are on drugs, but Lawrence or KU police officers have not yet undergone the extensive training.
The Drug Recognition Expert program trains officers to administer a 12-step test to drivers suspected of being under the influence of drugs. The officers also are trained to determine what drug or combination of drugs a suspect may have taken.
The program, which is run by the Kansas Highway Patrol, began about four years ago and has been used to train 44 officers so far.
Kansas Highway Patrol Sgt. David Corp, coordinator of the Drug Recognition Expert program, said the program was created as a response to a need in the state.
"We covered the bigger metro areas to start." Corp said.
The nearest trained drug-recognition experts are in Olathe, Leawood, Lenexa and Shawnee.
"Before the program began, we were letting too many drugged drivers go," he said.
Corp said he hoped to expand the program early next year.
"I hope we're going to get into
towns like Lawrence and Topeka," he said.
Just because Lawrence does not have its own certified experts, however, does not mean that drugged drivers in Lawrence cannot be caught using Drug Recognition Expert evidence.
"The way the program works, even if law-enforcement officers aren't trained in the procedures, they can call in a trained officer from another area to conduct the examination," said April Marvin, state director of the Kansas Drunk Driving Prevention Project.
Sgt. Troy Mallen of the KU Public Safety Office said that some KU officers had undergone other drug-training programs and that all were trained to respond to cases of driving under the influence.
"Several officers have gone
through drug-identification courses, and we have several that worked on the tri-county drug-enforcement unit." Malen said.
Corp said that drug-recognition experts normally were called in after an officer had stopped someone suspected of driving under the influence.
After the officers complete a series of interviews and physical exams, they report what drugs they suspect a driver of using and back up their suspicions with blood or urine tests. Corp said that the program's graduates could detect drugged drivers and the type of drugs they had used with about 90 percent accuracy.
In 1997, Kansas Drug Recognition Expert officers conducted 74 drug evaluations, which resulted in 47 arrests, according to the Kansas Drunk Drive Prevention Project.
EXAMINING SUBJECTS
Kansas Highway Patrol Sgt. David Corp said that a Drug Recognition Expert examines subjects by:
- Checking a subject's pulse, blood pressure and muscle tone.
- Checking for injection sites.
- Checking a subject's pupils to see if they are equal in size and if they are dilated or contracted in light and darkness.
Asking a subject to close his eyes, stand with his feet together and his arms at his sides, and tilt his head back. The subject then tries to estimate when he has held this position for thirty seconds. "He may estimate thirty seconds in ten seconds because his system is all rewinded up." Corp said.
Checking inside a subject's mouth and nose. Someone who has been using majang may have leaves or heat buns in his mouth. Cara said.
When the Drug Recognition Expert's testing is complete, the officer issues a written opinion, which is backed up with blood and urine tests. Corp said that Kansas DREs are accurate about 90 percent of the time.
Watkins fair offers fun, information
Kansan staff writer
By Sue Franke
Watkins Memorial Health Center's annual fair is in full swing.
The event, which provides students and faculty with information about Watkins' services, began yesterday.
The health fair, which wraps up from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. today, features four putt-putt golf holes as part of its theme, "Putt Your Way to Good Health."
At one of the golf holes, people tried on "fatal vision goggles," which simulate drunkenness. One pair of goggles reflects the legally intoxicated limit of .08.
Jamie Conley, St. Joseph, Mo..
senior, wore the goggles while putting.
"I felt like I was going to fall over," she said. "It gave me a good perception of what it would be like."
Julie Francis, health educator for Watkins, said that while it was a fun exercise, students should think about what it would be like to get into a car with an intoxicated person.
Students also could have their body fat checked for free. One student disagreed with the government standards for obesity.
"My body mass index is 32.1, so the government says I'm obese," said Robert Barnhill, Paola senior. "It does not take into account athletes or people who have physically
demanding jobs."
Missy Caywood, a Wattin's physical therapist, said that a body mass index between 25 and 30 was considered overweight and that a body mass index of 30 or more was obese. She said that people should not get fixated on weight and that they should have a good ratio of muscle mass to weight.
"People need lean muscle mass to be healthy, so we recommend that they add a strengthening program to their lives." Caywood said.
Students and faculty also could see kickboxing demonstrations, sign up for next week's campus blood drive and receive a personalized copy of their nutrition profile.

Football scores extra coaches
By Melody Ard
Kansan staff writer
Some faculty members at the University of Kansas will get a quick lesson in football this fall.
This weekend marks the first time this season that faculty will join KU's football team as guest coaches for pregame and game-day activities.
The idea behind faculty members becoming coaches for a day began in the 1970s under coach Don Fambrough, but lasted only a short time, said Paul Buskirk, associate athletic director.
Last season, a member of Terry Allen's staff reintroduced the idea as a way to give teachers a chance to participate in the athletic program. Buskirk said.
he intentionally did not schedule any faculty members for the first game.
As a guest coach, faculty members experience life with the football team for a day, including eating with the team, attending meetings and standing on the sidelines.
"Everything was still new," he said. "We wanted the players and coaches to concentrate on getting know each other before the game before we invited faculty members."
Between two and five faculty members usually participate in each home game. Buskirk said that
Kathryn Tuttle, director of the freshman, sophomore advising center, and her husband, Bill, professor of American studies, were guest coaches last season for the Kansas-Missouri game.
kathryn Tuttle said that she and her husband ate two meals with the team and attended the pregame planning sessions before joining the team on the sidelines.
"I think that one of the more interesting things about that was the actual meeting with the defensive team when they talked about strategy," she said. "I had never been to anything like that before."
Buskirk said participating in tradition was another important aspect of the guest coaches' experiences.
"They are bussed to the Hill where the team walks down to the stadium from the Campanile, and the guest coaches walk right along behind them with the rest of the coaching staff," he said.
Tuttle said that she and her husband were KU football fans and knew what to expect from the game. However, the experience gave them a new perspective about the work of coach Terry Allen and his assistants.
"I can't imagine a rougher job than coaching," she said. "The job that you are doing is on display every week in front of the fans. I got a little more sense of what it is like."
Buskirk said that he was still working on getting commitments from guest coaches this season and that he had received positive responses from the faculty members who participated last season.
"I wasn't expecting any response from the guest coaches, but I got three or four unsolicited phone calls from people saying how much they appreciated it and that it was different than what they expected."

Bus pass remedies were deceptive
A recent proposal by the KU on Wheels transportation coordinator that included duping students was the type of behavior the campus detests from officials. It should not have happened and must never happen again.
Nicole Skala, transportation coordinator, said in a written proposal to the Transportation Board that the bus system could take a "hush-hush" approach concerning the failed KUID as bus passes. Although KU on Wheels awaits separate bus passes for students, there is no way to check who purchased a pass and who did not. For now, any student can ride for free simply by showing a KUID.
At the board meeting, Skalla brought up a proposal that included an option in which the transportation board would charge $1 to students who did not purchase a pass and have those that did run their KUIDs through broken machines.
This was the second option Skalla provided. Her first suggestion was to
Three options were given to help the troubling situation, two were not forthright.
be open with students and let people ride for free until the new bus passes arrive. That was a fair suggestion, but it should have been the only one of the three that was offered.
It was improper for Skalla to offer in writing the idea that it would be acceptable to not be honest with students.
She suggested that the transportation board could pretend nothing was wrong, despite the bus pass system being shut down.
This was a ridiculous idea and should not have been included at all among the proposal Skalla submitted, Skalla should be embarrassed for suggesting it.
Skalla is supposed to represent students. She must advocate being forright at all times. Students need to trust student officials, but incidents
like this make it difficult
Skalla has done good things as transportation coordinator, but those are overshadowed by the types of suggestions she made to deal with this situation.
The bus pass situation has been a fiasco, and none of it is Skalla's fault. She has been burdened with the glitches of a system the University administration promised would be a success.
But when Skalla suggests hints that it might be acceptable to pull a fast one on students, then she becomes part of the problem, not part of the solution.
Skalla's proposal was considered and then turned down by the board, witch oversees the bus system. But that doesn't make it any better.
In the future, Skalla should think twice before making these suggestions. If she doesn't, she will lose the trust and support of the students for whom she is supposed to stand up.
Spencer Duncan for the editorial board
KUID options put forth by the transportation coordinator
Smart card options as presented Sept.9, to the Campus Transportation Board:
1. Allow students to board the bus for "free" until we can implement the new system. As Karl suggested, give specific details in a press release to media outlets indicating that students can board for free until the new passes are ready, with the understanding that they must pay or show an ID after a specified date. We could pass this off as a publicity stunt for KU on Wheels, showing our good will toward our current users and impressing non-users into buying bus passes with the efficiency of our service.
Problem: Those students who already have a bus pass may decide that they want a refund for this two week period if we allow anyone to ride the bus. I believe that this problem could be solved with a very carefully worded press release. However, we need to be prepared for all situations.
quickly that the drivers are not checking and will board for free anyway. In my biased opinion, we reap no benefits here because we look underhanded and are unfair, plus we don't get the publicity benefits of appearing magnanimous.
2. Allow student to board the bus without using their smart card, but maintain a "hush, hush" mentality so that non-bus pass holders will continue to pay for the service.
Problem: This still creates the problem that some students will realize what is going on and demand a full refund. Also any intelligent student should catch on
3. Make students continue to use the readers in the misbegotten hope that they do not figure out that the readers are not actually working.
Problem: Even if we demand that the drivers continue to check cards, the reality is that many of them will not do so. In addition, this does not help our credibility problem immediately because drivers and students will continue to be frustrated.

Get Clinton out of news and focus on big issues
Perspective
It is starting to look like anyone with a television or a radio had better get used to hearing about President Clinton's affair with Monica Lewinsky every day, all day. But if
you are sick of all this coverage as I am, tough. There is too much vital information out there that you need to know about.
Last week, the headlines blared the news that Clinton's approval ratings dropped a few percentage points. Tomorrow's headlines probably will say that Clinton got those points back despite having changed his story again for the third or fourth time.
David
Perico
opinion@kansan.com
I hate to admit it, but all of this coverage is starting to
have an effect on my thinking. I actually have read some of the testimony from the Starr Report. If that is not bad enough, I understand some of the issues involved in this case.
It seems that the whole affair revolves around the fact that Monica Lewinsky got a job at the White House and started fooling around with the president. When word of the affair got out, Clinton denied it and even testified in the Paula Jones case that he did not have a sexual affair, sexual relations or a sexual relationship with Lewinskv. Oops.
You almost have to admire Clinton's appreciation of the narrow definition of sexual relations that were set forth by the judge in the Jones case. That judge defined sexual relations as "contact with the genitalia...(or) breast... of any person with the intent to arouse or gratify the sexual desire of any person."
Clinton later defended his denials of sexual relations by saying that this definition of sexual relations does not apply if the "contact is not with anything on that list (of sexual contacts), but with the lips of another person." It was a pretty sly response, and it might have gotten him off the hook, but Lewinsky decided to tell all. Now Clinton has a new explanation
— that he sinned. He didn't have sexual relations with Lewinsky and he didn't inhale. He just sinned.
It really is amazing what a nice, big scandal can do to a president's political beliefs. Thirty years ago, Clinton was mourning (toking)? a joint, dodging the draft and protesting in the Soviet Union. Now, with a scandal weighing heavily on his shoulders, he ordered military strikes against terrorists, dropped his plans for a huge health-care bureaucracy and the federal government is now operating with surplus funds.
The only thing left to discuss in this neverending soap opera is what will happen in Congress now that Clinton has admitted wrongdoing. My own hope is that Congress will keep compiling evidence of Clinton's wrongdoing without impeaching him. If Congress did that, everyone would benefit.
Now that the possibility of congressional action has been raised by Republicans and Democrats, Clinton has gone so far as to admit that he did have an affair.
We could have a stable executive branch while the economies of major countries are headed in a downward spiral. We also would have government stability while we are dealing with resurgent terrorism. Most important, we would have a staunch Republican in the White House without having another presidential election.
If the Republicans in Congress can lead Clinton around by the nose for the next two years, it would be downright foolish to impeach him now. If Clinton tries to lease another military base to the Chinese government or tries to sell them any more sensitive military technology, then Congress can move forward with impeachment. But I don't think that will ever become necessary. There is one thing that I've seen Clinton do consistently during his time in office, and that is to put Bill Clinton first.
So, let's move past this crisis and get on with our lives. That sure would make the news a lot more interesting.

Pedestrians' right of way puts them in the way
Having passed driver's education with a solid C, I vaguely remember learning that pedestrians always have the right of way. I still believe firmly in this principle.
of way I still believe firmly That is no good Lalag
That being said, I also would like to mention that, should some pedestrian decide to take on my car as it hurtles down the road at a minimum of 10 mph faster than the speed limit, the car would win.
I am not saying that I would try to hit anybody. However, when someone steps off the curb, slows their pace and gives me that I'm-too-cool-to-hurry-across-the-street look, the gas pedal tends to get just a little closer to the floorboar

At any given point during the day from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., about 10,000 people will cross the streets of campus and any attempt to drive through the masses of bleached hair, khaki shorts and fashionable sandals shows a serious lack of judgment.
Look, all I'm asking is that whoever crosses the street in front of me acknowledges that he or she is in my way and doesn't dawle. The hand wave is time-honored because it works.
Keep in mind, I am talking in general, citywide terms. The issues surrounding campus driving are completely different.
Campus is closed for a reason. Yes, I know the air-conditioner isn't working in your car, and you only wanted to check out the pretty landscape while short-cutting your way to the many shopping options on 23rd Street. I feel
for you I really do.
It's called Tennessee Street, though. Use it.
As with all issues, there is a flip side to campus driving. As stated earlier, cars are large, life-endangering objects, often driven by people like me — people who tend to be distracted by little squirrels running through trees.
for you. I really do.
Use some common sense when crossing the street. Look both ways, please. Not to bring you down or anything, but your specific whereabouts (i.e. on the curb or on the hood of my car) are not the top priority on my list.
I also would like to interject a rule that a friend of mine and many others follow. The five o'clock rule. Simply stated: After five, campus is open and everyone is fair game.
Finally, I'd like to comment on the whole parking thing.
Thankfully, we are finally past the dark days of no parking spaces. A small thanks from me to all the teachers who don't take attendance, which inadvertently allows for the freeing up of parking spaces.
1, and many others, no longer need to troll around endlessly, sucking up the nauseating fumes from 1,000 other cars, trying to find spots for 8:30 a.m. classes. Yes, those were desperate times.
However, old habits die hard, and there is a certain thrill to gunning down a narrow aisle of parked cars at about 70 mph. Walking up the hill is good for more than just making your legs look good. It also gives them the strength you'll need to get out of the way quickly.

Feedback
Everyone should reflect on scandal
The '60s will be remembered for another historical movement. It marks the beginning of a war between two distinct ideologies. The words liberal and conservative were used before, but these words became labels for which these two viewpoints would use as war paint for the future. Ideologies which through their infancies would grow into the adolescence of the Vietnam War, the sexual revolution and Watergate find its legs and reason for living through the Reagan years and now full maturity during one of our most politically volatile eras, the Clinton Administration.
For the last 38 years, conservatism and liberalism could keep to themselves. Oh sure, a rumble might break out every
Both ideologies are in their primes. They've been in the minor leagues, learned to hit that inside curve ball and are ready to win the moral world series. The problem is neither can rely on their wicked curve balls or their brute strength. Both will have to justify their beliefs with honesty and a rock-
once in a while, but these two budding gangs could almost stick to their own turf and not really have to fight about a piece of our moral property.
Liberals will roll out the victims and say, "Hey, everybody's doing it." How conservatives will look to sacred texts to find meaning and justification for their moral outrage. However thick the cloud of dialogue may get, we as individuals are being forced to take a side and personally justify how we feel about it.

Fees numerous, costly for students with local checking, bank accounts
By Chad Bettes
Kansan staff write
Students beware. While they offer convenience, checking accounts and other bank services can become expensive.
In addition to account service charges that may apply depending on the type of account, there are fees for items such as overdrafts, ATM usage, traveler's checks, cashier's checks and money orders.
According to several Lawrence banks and credit unions, the most costly banking mistake a consumer can make is to overdraw an account or to have a check returned for insufficient funds.
Overdraft and bounced-check fees can be as high as $20 at most local financial institutions. KU Credit Union and Capitol Federal Savings charge $15.
Janice Toebben, senior vice president of Mercantile Bank, said students could save money by regularly balancing their checking accounts.
She said bounced-check fees were not only charged by banks; sometimes the merchant that accepted the check and the credit bureau used by the merchant also charge fees.
"A $3 drink can turn into a $50 drink," Toebben said. "And, I don't think any drink is that good."
An option offered by most banks is overdraft protection, where money from another bank account or credit card could be used to pay the check. This option has a
fee, but it is much smaller than the $15 to
$20 fee.
ATMs increasingly are popular among students and other bank customers, Toebben said, because the machines provide convenience. Fees for ATMs are different depending on whether the transaction is conducted at one of the customer's bank locations or at another bank's ATM.
The use of ATMs by a bank customer is usually free at Lawrence banks, but the KU Credit Union charges a $1.50 per month fee for ATM access.
Other area banks charge fees when their customers use another bank's ATM. The fees range from 75 cents to $1.50 per transaction.
The bank that owns the ATM also may charge an additional fee on top of the customer's bank charge.
Charles Drucker, Chicago junior, said he usesd ATMs too often — up to four times per week to withdraw small amounts of cash. He thinks the fees he pays are unfair and equated them to a high percentage rate.
"Eleven and a half percent is ridiculous," Drucker said. "I think a quarter may be more fair, I hate ATMs."
Despite the fees, Drucker said he would not withdraw larger amounts of cash at one time because he would spend it faster.
The customer decides whether the convenience justifies the cost, Toebben said.
Traveler's check fees are standard in Lawrence at 1 percent to 2 percent of the total traveler's check purchase. For example, the fee on $500 worth of checks with a 1 percent fee is $5. The KU Credit Union charges. 75 percent of the total purchase.
"A $3 drink can turn into a $50 drink, and I don't think any drink is that good."
Janice Toebben senior vice president of Mercantile Bank
Cashier's checks and money orders, alternatives to personal checks, cost from $1 to $4 per item. Money orders are 50 cents to $1 cheaper than cashier's checks but usually have a maximum value. Cashier's checks can be made for larger amounts.
Local banks noted that certain account holders qualify for free services, depending on the deposit and loan balances the customer has with the bank.
Toebben offered other money-saving tips for students.
The best thing students can do is build a personal relationship with their banks, she said. The banker who opened the student's account could be a valuable resource in avoiding fees. When students stay in touch with the bank, the bank is more willing to work with them, Toebben said.
Direct deposit of funds into bank accounts and automatic payment of bills from the bank also save students time and money, she said.
Campus group to green up University
Barbecue, camping on ESSA's agenda
By Liz Wristen
Kansan staff writer
Barbecues, camp-outs and student-teaching programs are just a few of the activities filling the calendars of Environmental Studies Student Association members.
The association is planning activities for the fall and spring semesters that will bring students at the University of Kansas together to learn more about what they can do to protect the environment, said Todd Simmons, president of the association.
"There is no reason that KU shouldn't be more green than it already is," Simmons said. "Hopefully through our activities and fund-raisers this year, we can get more students involved in ESSA and at the same time get some exposure for the things we do."
The association is planning a barbecue from 5 to 10 p.m. Sept. 25 at Clinton Lake State Park for Simmons. Simmons said the
barbecue would be an opportunity for students to get better acquainted with the environmental studies faculty and other students in the environmental studies program.
An October camp-out for students also is being planned by the association. Simmons said that the camp-outs would include backpacking through locations in Colorado, Texas or Missouri. The camp-outs will involve low-impact camping, which is trying to leave no trace behind after camping at a location, Simmons said.
"The ideology is to go out and use what you strive to protect," Simmons said. "We want people who are interested in the environment to come out and enjoy the nature we're保护."
Stan Leeb, acting director of the environmental studies department, said he was happy with the number of environmental studies majors at the University and that he encouraged students majoring in environmental studies to get involved with ESSA.
THE ENVIRONMENTAL STUDIES STUDENT ASSOCIATION
The Environmental Studies Student Association is planning many activities for the fall semester, including a barbecue, a camp-out, a benefit concert and a campus recycling program.
- Anderson president of ESSA, said he hoped that the association would gain more recognition this semester for the environmental programs it sponsors.
- Anyone interested in learning more about ESSA or the programs it is sponsoring may contact Simmons at 842-2059.
Simmons said members of the association would be teaching science at Lawrence elementary schools this semester as well. Last year, the members taught lessons about environmental awareness, wetlands and city lakes. The members concentrate on teaching students from second through fifth grade, and Simmons said that the association hoped to teach classes at every Lawrence elementary school by the end of the year.
"The ideology is to go out and use what you strive to protect. We want people who are interested in the environment to come out and enjoy the nature we're protecting."
Todd Simmons president of ESSA
"ESSA brings environmental studies majors together in many ways," said Deborah Snyder, secretary for the environmental studies program. "It provides job opportunities, internship opportunities, peer advising and other activities for students."
Members of the association will be planning many other activities for the semester, Simmons said. These include ESSA Fest, a benefit concert Nov. 20-21; campus clean-up opportunities for groups and organizations on campus and providing scholarship opportunities for environmental studies majors.
Anyone interested in learning more information about the association activities may contact Simmons at 842-2059.

Jobs in short supply for biosciences grads

The number of graduate students in biosciences at the University of Kansas has been regulated in the past couple of years to ensure job opportunities for graduates, said James Orr, chairman of the Division of Biological Sciences.
"To the graduate student and postdoctoral trainee who have invested many years of preparation with the expectation of having a research career, the situation is discouraging," according to the report, called Trends in the Early Careers of Life.
Orr said students needed to understand that career options were not limited to academia. Many bioscience Ph.D.s can find work in environmental science and in pharmaceuticals.
Linda Trueb, professor and director of graduate studies for the department of ecology and evolutionary biology, said the report probably was true nation wide but that the program at the University of Kansas was exceptional.
"There are always jobs and research programs available for the best." Trueb said.
Kristi Elliott / KANSAN
KU professors in biosciences also said that although they were aware of the shortage of research jobs, KU students had an advantage because the biological sciences departments here had increased the
number of Ph.D. graduates and continuously had updated their programs.
Nationally, a steep increase in the number of life sciences Ph.D.s began in 1987 with the influx of international Ph.D.s and Ph.D. candidates, according to the council's report.
Michael Greenfield, professor and chairman of the department of entomology, said there had been an increase in recent years in the number of international students seeking Ph.D.s. But he said the number of overall students seeking biosciences Ph.D.s had not increased at the University of Kansas.
Mark Richter, associate professor of biochemistry and former acting chairman of the molecular biosciences department, said that he was aware of job shortages and that he tried to limit the number of students in the department.
However, Richter said that his department and others were under pressure from the University to produce research. He said that because students accounted for the bulk of the research productivity, balance was required.
M M
I think at KU we've managed to balance that pretty well," Richter said.
He said it was difficult to know exactly how many Ph.D.s were successful because the department's only information came from the success rate of job applicants.
"By and large, almost everyone gets a job," Richter said of KU students.

Washington work enlightens
Summer at capitol gives students new political perspective
By Steph Brew
Kansan staff writer
With Washington, D.C., in the headlines every day, the average citizen might wonder what it would be like to live in a city filled with such scandal and controversy.
This summer, through the Congressional Hispanic Caucus Institute. University of Kansas students Aida Garcia and Andreana Albott experienced the world of politics firsthand.
Garcia, Lenexa junior, and Albott, Topeka senior, were among 30 Hispanic-American undergraduates selected to spend two months in Washington working as paid interns for the nation's leaders.
The program gave students a $2,000 stipend, free housing and round-trip transportation to Washington.
Monique Garcia, KU graduate and the program's coordinator, said that it had been a goal of hers to get more students from Kansas involved in the program.
PENNSYLVANIA
Aida Garcia worked in the office of Sen. Sam Brownback, R-Kan., and Albott worked for Rep. Gene Green, D-Texas.
Aida Garcia said that because she was not Republican, she was apprehensive about working for Brownback.
"It actually tried my patience a lot of times," she said. "I think that was one of the hardest things I had to deal with."
Despite the political differences, Garcia said her experience was positive.
positive.
"It was all pretty exciting," she said. "I felt pretty lucky to be there."
Aida Garcia said that although she had no major responsibilities, the internship was educational.
"The responsibilities we did have made us learn how the government really works." she said.
Albott said that while working in Green's office, she had the opportunity to write letters to constituents and a "Dear Colleague" letter that congressmen write to introduce new bills.
ington gave her a new perspective on politics.
She said that there was nothing about her job that she really didn't like but that occasionally she felt the impact of her low position.
"Sometimes you felt like an interm of a peon," she said.
"I realized the rules," she said. "There are a lot of differences between women and men."
She said that working in Wash-
Albott said that the division of parties was more evident in Washington than in Kansas.
Both Albott and Aida Garcia said they highly would recommend the program.

"We got to meet all these cabinet members that some of the other interns didn't get to," Garcia said.
She also said that she enjoyed meeting other interns and that by living together the interns learned from one another.
"There were 30 of us from all over the United States," she said. "That in itself was one of the best learning tools I had all summer."
Clinton defends integrity in speech
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — President Clinton urged the public and Congress today to avoid getting mired in the details of his relationship with Monica Lewinsky and to move beyond the scandal jeopardizing his presidency.
Asked point-blank if he would resign, the president gave no direct answer but said Americans "want to put it behind them and they want to go on — and they want me to go on."
Friends and aides have said that he won't resign.
relations with the former intern. Asked whether he still had the moral authority to lead, the president said firmly. "That is something you have to demonstrate every day."
Clinton also would not respond to questions about whether he committed perjury or whether Lewinsky told the truth when she described her White House visits. Democratic leaders have warned Clinton to drop legal "hairsplitting" in denying sexual
A joint news conference at the State Department with the president of the Czech Republic, Vaclav Havel, was dominated by questions
BILLIE OBAMA
about the Lewinsky affair.
Clinton: Says public wants him to continue as president.
"I think that the right thing for our country and the right thing for all people concerned is not to get mired in all the details here
but for me to focus on what I did, to acknowledge it, to atone for it and then to work on my family, where I still have a lot of work to do — difficult work — and to lead this country," he said.
He said his legal defenses shouldn't obscure the fact that he was sorry for his acts.
the president remained calm throughout the news conference but seemed uncomfortable and a bit impatient with reporters' questions.
Clinton was asked about House Republican plans to release the videotape of his Aug. 17 grand jury testimony, a move White House advisers fear will embarrass Clinton.
"I ... knew the rules were against it but I thought it would happen." Clinton said.
After Havel praised Clinton for helping to "build a new Europe."
the U.S. president insisted that the controversy had not hampered his ability to lead the country and the world.
"I have never stopped leading this country in foreign affairs in this entire year, and I never will," Clinton said. "The issues are too important, and they affect the way Americans live at home."
Ticking off his foreign policy involvements, Clinton said that he had acted to crack down on terrorism, cope with a world economic crisis and handle foreign policy troublespots such as Northern Ireland and the Middle East.
Havel would not speculate about the impact of a Clinton resignation. "I believe this is a matter for the United States and the American people."
He called himself a friend of Clinton.

Additional rainfall in Mexico hinders relief efforts, travel
The Associated Press
TAPACHULA, Mexico — More rain delayed aid flights yesterday to villages isolated by a week of flooding in Mexico, while the death toll rose to 119 and hunger grew among those cut off by the downpours.
Helicopters resumed shuttling food, water and medicine to the 400,000 people isolated by mudslides, swollen rivers and downed bridges when the rain let up in the late morning in the southern state of Chiapas.
The floods tore through an area the size of Massachusetts last week, leaving residents without food, water or power. By yesterday, 119 bodies had been recovered, said Health Minister Juan Ramon de la Fuente, although officials expect the number to rise.
Local newspapers said more than 200 had died, and the Roman Catholic bishop of Tapachula, Monsignor Felipe Arizendi, said the church expected the death toll to reach 500 or even 1,000 when officials were able to count all the missing from tiny villages in the mountains.
Many bodies are believed to have washed into the Pacific Ocean or disappeared beneath the mud.
Hunger was increasing among flood victims, and in one village people attacked a military helicopter dropping off alf, according to the Mexico City newspaper Reforma.

Dozens of villagers in Soconusco, 40 miles northwest of Tapachula, swarmed onto a helicopter dropping off rations Tuesday, grabbing everything inside the chopper. Soldiers were unable to stop them, *Reforma* said.
"People are starving to death here," a local leader, Leobardo Broca, was quoted as telling the soldiers. "See for yourselves. I want all of you to understand that I'm not guilty of anything because you've left us alone."

The fight for the aid was intense, the newspaper said. Two women fought for the same sack of flour, splitting it in half and sending a cloud of flour over the area, churned up by the helicopter's rotors.
Weather officials said 3.2 inches of rain had fallen in Pijijiapan, one of the hardest-hit communities, and half an inch in

State government officials said hell-copters had been grounded Tuesday afternoon and yesterday morning because of rain, but the rain turned into a drizzle, and the aid teams resumed their work.
Cincinnati challenges campaign-spending case
The Associated Press
CINCINNATI — The city of Cincinnati is asking the U.S. Supreme Court to reconsider its landmark 1976 ruling that campaign-spending limits violate free speech rights.
The city wants the Supreme Court to overturn a lower-court decision that said Cincinnati's spending cap on City Council candidates was unconstitutional under the 22-year-old ruling known as Buckley vs. Valeo.
The Cincinnati case is being watched closely around the nation because other states have seen their spending caps tossed out. Thirty-three states and Guam have filed papers in support of Cincinnati's position.
The Boston-based National Voting Rights Institute, which is representing the city, filed the appeal Tuesday.
"Our view is that the Supreme Court never said the door was completely closed to spending limits and that new facts and circumstances justify Cincin-
nati's limits," said John Bonifaz, the group's executive director.
Bonifaz said that large campaign contributions had too much influence and that raising money interfered with politicians' responsibilities.
The case came about when John Kruse, an unsuccessful City Council candidate in 1993 and 1995, challenged the ordinance capping spending at three times the post's annual salary, or about $140,000. Kruse said the law was designed to protect incumbents and violated his right to free speech.
lated this right to Repeal a federal judge and the 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Cincinnati found the ordinance unconstitutional.
David Goldberger, a constitutional law professor at Ohio State University, said he, too, doubted the city would succeed.
"A lot of people are unhappy with the 1976 ruling, but the facts are that the court has shown no inclination to overturn it," Goldberger said. "The court has clearly indicated that spending limits are considered violations of free speech."

Penalty kicks cause emotional response
By Brad Hallier
Kansan sportswriter
It's the ultimate one-on-one confrontation in soccer.
The penalty kick pits one team's goalkeeper against the other team's shooter. Only 12 yards separate the two, and when the referee blows the whistle for the kick to be taken, the adrenaline shoots through both players.
"I try to be calm and get to the ball," said Jen Fecke, junior goalkeeper for the Kansas soccer team. "I just try to figure out whether it's a shot or a pass into the goal."
A penalty kick is awarded when a defender commits one of 10 offenses in their own penalty box, according to FIFA's "Laws of the Game." FIFA, soccer's international governing body, defines the offences as kicking, tripping, jumping at,击袭, striking, pushing, holding, spit
ting at, handling or tackling an opponent before making contact with the ball.
Goalkeepers also can commit these offenses, with the exception of handling the ball.
Once a penalty kick is called, anyone on the offensive team may take the shot.
"When we're taking a penalty kick, my philosophy is to not have the person who was fouled to take the kick," said Kansas coach Dan Magner. "I believe the person who has been fouled is emotionally involved in the situation. They could be very mad, and it can very difficult for a player to let that go."
Magner said senior defender Jackie Dowell had been successful in her four years taking penalty kicks. She missed one in Sunday's 4-1 win against Central Missouri State, but Magner didn't fault her.
"I have to believe the weather conditions played a big factor," he said of the standing water on the field Sunday. "We would go back to Jackie again, and I believe you want a highly skilled player to take the kick."
Dowell said that there was a science to being successful at penalty kicks.
"I believe in placement before power," she said. "You should place the ball properly with enough pace. Any of the four corners are the hardest places for the keeper to get to, so that's what I aim for. I usually keep it down. You can't shoot under the goal, but you can shoot over the goal. It's also harder for the keeper to get down on low shots, especially if they are tall."
FIFA recently changed the rule that goalkeepers could not move their feet until the ball was kicked. Now, goalkeepers can move on the goal line but may not move forward until the kick is taken. Magner said that it was a good rule change.
"It gives the goalkeeper more of an opportunity to make the save, and it adds
more excitement to the play," he said. "But you don't want to give the goalkeeper too much of an advantage because they are being penalized."
Kickers may not touch the ball after they have shot it until it touches another player, including the goalkeeper. If the球 ricochetts off a post or crossbar and the shooter touches it again, the play is dead. The defending team is then awarded a free kick.
No other player is allowed inside the penalty box or the penalty arc until the ball has been kicked. If the shooting team is guilty of this and a goal is scored, the shot is retaken. If the defending team is guilty and a goal is not scored, the shot is retaken. Otherwise, plau continues as normal.
Fecke and Dowell said that staying relaxed was important whether shooting the ball or protecting the nets.
"At least I can't blame myself for those goals," Fecke said.

After Big 12 referees fail to make a crucial pass interference call in last Saturday's Kansas-Missouri game...
Kristi Elliott / KANSAN
ALLEN TAKES ACTION
By Jodi M. Smith
Kansan sportswriter
Terry Allen is not a stupid man.
Allen said he was just defending his team.
Terry Riley is a man who has why did he publicly criticize officials in Saturday's Kansas-Missouri border war, practically begging for a reprimand from the Big 12 Conference?
"I wanted to stand up for our football team and let our fans know and our players know that if we see an injustice taking place, we're going to fight for it," he said.
Allen's comments came after a pass interference call he thought should have been made during Saturday's game. Quarterback Zac Wegner's possible touchdown pass was intercepted in the end zone by Missouri's Harold Piersey. Allen contended that Jason Gulley, the intended receiver, was knocked down illegally, allowing Piersey to catch the pass.
Don Fambrough, Kansas football coach from 1971 to 1974 and from 1979 to 1982, thought Allen just got wrapped up in the heat of the moment.
"A lot of people don't realize that a coach is so involved in the game and in his players," Fambrough said. "When he sees that something happens that isn't fair for his players, he's going to say something and not think about the consequences."
For his first offense, though, there were few consequences.
According to the Big 12 code of conduct policy, the first offense carried

only a letter of public reprimand. It's not until the second offense that a fine of $5,000 and a one-game suspension are issued.
The official public reprimand came from Martin yesterday.

Sportscaster Tom Hedrick thought Allen was trying to make a point that he wouldn't allow this to happen again.
but, according to some, Allen got his point across.
Hedrick compared it to arguing with one's wife.
"You're not going to win, but maybe next time you'll get the call," he said.
High school coach and former Kansas player Grant Thierloff thinks Allen had reasons for provoking the reoirmand.
"You're trying to set a foundation," he said. "When you're a Nebraska or a Kansas State, you get those calls.
"You just want to make sure that officials know that you need to be given the same accord and the same opportunities that everybody else does."
"It's different from what you might think, or another spectator, because it's not your life." Fambrough said. "For a coach, it's your entire life. You get so involved with the University of Kansas, with these players, sometimes you just can't be responsible for a situation like that.
From a fan's viewpoint, it may appear easy to control one's temper. Fambroh can assure them it isn't.

If a similar situation arose, Allen said he would try to handle it with a little more composure.
"I agree with him 100 percent. I saw the calls, and ... they were terrible."
Now it's evident, though, that Allen wasn't mist blowing smoke.

To emerge victorious Allen must wrench KU defense into line
Sometime fhis year, I will write a real column.
My Heisman Pick Update;
You know, the ones that have a beginning and an ending. The ones that make an argument, tell a story or give the reader a glimpse into the sports world. The ones that show the reader that, yes, this author has a point.
But until that day comes, I give you more of the infamous "Bullet column"...
Kentucky quarterback Tim Couch's numbers after two weeks: 61-80, 87 yards and 12 touchdowns.
Jump on now, people, before it's too late. At this rate, Couch should throw about 300 touchdowns.
Terry Allen may be an "offensive genius," as the announcer at Saturday's game called him, but unless the Kansas defense gets better in a hurry, it won't matter how many points the Jayhawks can score.
In their first two games, the Kansas defense — which was supposed to be the team's strength — has given up 79 points and yielded a little more than 809 yards in total offense. Those types of numbers don't win a lot of games, folks.
If you thought Devin West's 319 yards was obscene, wait until Oct. 17, when the Jayhawks visit Nebraska. Look for some records to fall.

■ Look! Kansas State plays a...(gasp!)...good team this weekend.
So maybe it is a bit premature to call Texas a good team. They were 4-7 last season, after all. But compared to the last two teams the Wildcats played (which I believe were the Lawrence High School junior varsity team and the Toledo Culinary Institute), the Longhorns should look like the '76 Steelers.
Oh, but don't get any false illusions about Bill Snyder's scheduling. Mighty Northeast Louisiana awaits the Wildcats after Texas game. (Yes, it is my duty as a responsible journalist to bash Kansas State every chance I get.)

Corby Jones: How 'bout this, coach; I drop back, run around and then score a touchdown.

Coach Smith: Darned fnie play; corby: Darned fnie! If the Tigers didn't have Jones, they would be called Ball State.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Sept. 17).
Your destiny is knocking this year. Don't be afraid to answer the door. Your biggest worries are the key to your greatest success, so face them You're really smart in September, but love is what brings success.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 7.
You could say something to a loved one this morning that you didn't expect but sincerely feel. You generally are out spoken, but when it comes to emotional stuff, you can get tongue-fied. But this morning, you might blunt out something about love, or forever or commitment.
rus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 6.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 6.
Action is required, and you'll have to make several big decisions. Heed a roommate's advice; but you'll have to live with your decision for a long time, so make sure it's one that supports you. If it does, it also likely will support the people you love most.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 7.
There's something you'd like to change about your domestic environment. It doesn't matter if you've never done it before. You can learn. Other people do it, and you're certainly as smart as they are — smarter than some. All in all, you definitely are capable. Go for it.
Cancer [June 22-July 22]: Today is a 6.
The sun is in Virgo, and the moon is in Leo. Finish up old business today. Don't start anything new. Gather in money that's been promised, rather than getting new promises. New promises won't be worth much today, so there's no point in trying to gather them up. Go for the gold instead.
Leo (Julv 23-Aua. 22): Todav is an 8.
Your motivation should be to take care of other people or you won't succeed. If you can pull this off, you can acquire great fame and fortune. Today, don't start any new projects. Finish up something you've been working on.
Virao (Aug. 23-Sep. 22): Today is a 6.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 7.
Today's agenda involves finishing old business. That's been a theme for the last few days, but now there's no turning back. The urgency of the situation will be apparent early in the morning. You're going to have to rely on your memory and, in some cases, your imagination.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 6.
The moon is in Leo again, but it's void of course. That means it's made all the aspects it's going to make before it goes into Virgo tomorrow. The void-of-course moon means that whatever is going to happen already has happened, and now all we need to do is clean up.
Saaittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 6.
The Leo people in your life might be feeling a little feisty. Mars would get them to do things they've been thinking about but resisting or afraid to try. So if you want to get an older person into action, give a little shove today. It could work.
Your burning curiosity could lead you to try something you've never considered before. You'll do well to go back to a previous location, school or endeavor, but don't worry. It'll be different now, and what you'll be learning is all new.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 6.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 6.
Money is again the focus today. If you can pay your bills early, you'll be ahead, and if you haven't received your paycheck yet. This coming weekend, by the way, is going to be excellent for travel. So get chores done early. You'll want to have the time for other things.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 6.
If you push a partner intellectually today, you can get what you want. You usually figure out what's going to happen then let someone else carry out the plan. You can't just sit back like a mouse in a corner and hope everything goes well. You're going to have to get involved.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 6.
Everybody's racing around, trying to do more than possibly can be done in the allotted time. If you think of it as a game, it'll be a lot more fun. If you think of it as being serious and life-and-death and all that, you'll only get yourself stressed out and make the job even more difficult.

Big 12 begins review of KU-MU game tapes
Smith said during the Big 12 coaches media teleconference call Monday that officials missed three clipping calls on a punt Kansas returned for a touchdown.
"Everything is under review, and something could be announced later in the week." Carter said.
Allen said officials missed a pass interference call on Missouri.

The Big 12 sent a letter to the athletic directors of both schools that both the tapes of the game and the coaches' public reaction were under review.
Bo Carter, spokesman for the Big 12, said no official action had been taken. Interim commissioner Dave Martin and senior assistant commissioner Donnie Duncan were studying what the coaches had to say while Tim Millis, coordinator of Big 12 football officials, was studying the game films.
DALLAS — Yesterday, the Big 12 Conference began reviewing a tape of last Saturday's 41-23 Missouri win against Kansas to investigate officiating complaints made by both coaches. Terry Allen of Kansas and Larry Smith of Missouri each had grievances.

Commentary
As Big 12 conference begins to improve, the Jayhawks begin to lose more ground
The creation of the Big 12 Conference three years ago was supposed to shake up college football. It was envisioned as the next great Super Conference ___
But with the exception of Nebraska (and maybe Kansas State), Big 12 schools have done little to distinguish themselves nationally or within the conference itself.
The Big 12 was boring and full of mediocre teams.
But things seem different this year. Suddenly, the mediocrity is evolving into respectability.
A. K. Pandey
Spencer Duncan
So far in this young season, only two teams in the conference don't have a victory: Kansas and Baylor. Five teams are ranked in the Associated Press top-25, including two ranked in the top five, the Cornhuskers and the Wildcats. And two schools, Texas and Texas Tech, are receiving votes in the poll, which means they are on the verge of cracking it.
That does not mean the Big 12 is the strongest conference in the nation, that title belongs to the SEC. But it does mean the Big 12 finally is showing off the power it always has promised but has not yet produced.
And all of this may be bad luck for the Jayhawks. Last season Kansas was an OK team in a LESS THAN OK conference. That allowed the Jayhawks to surprise Missouri and almost beat Texas in the season finale, which might have given Kansas a bowl berth.
The OK Hawks finished 5-6 and looked decent in the process.
Last year's results boosted this year's expectations. But while Kansas is a better team than last season, it is still just OK. So now, instead of being an OK team in a LESS THAN OK conference, Kansas is an OK team in a PRETTY DARN GOOD conference.
It's bad timing for Kansas coach Terry Allen, who wants to turn things around quickly. Had he been around two years ago, he might have had better luck. While Kansas can finish this season with a winning record, it will be extremely tough.
The Jayhawks are stronger. They have a more versatile running game, despite small size at running back. Zac Wegner is better all around, despite the fact that he still has problems throwing while on the run. And the secondary and receiving corps have shown quick feet and sharp hands, despite giving up some big plays and missing some catches.
The true weakness of the team has been the defensive line.
The Jayhawks' defensive line should be one of, if
not the, strongest areas for the team. Juco transfer Dion Rayford, seniors Patrick Brown and Hanson Caston, junior Dion Johnson and sophomore Dariss Lomax were touted as one of the top d-lines in the conference before the season kicked off. But so far, it has sputtered.
Lomax has not played a down after being suspended for violating team rules and Johnson is out with a separated shoulder.
The remaining players have tremendous speed and strength. And despite those losses, the line should still be powerful.
It isn't.
Kansas allowed Missouri and Oklahoma State to rack up a combined 631 yards. The OK 'Hawks are giving up 315 rushing yards per game, the worst in the country. The fault lies with the defensive line. If it does not get better, then teams will batter Kansas
The Jayhawks will take care of their non-conference opponents with ease. But in a season when Iowa State has downed Iowa, Colorado is nearly back to top form and a mediocre Texas &M team is starting to run the ball well, getting a conference win could be difficult for Kansas.
The Jayhawks are a bad team, but the Big 12 is maturing and Kansas needs to keep up.
One down, one more recruit to go: Nick Collison
Duncan is a Topeka senior in English and journalism.
Forward from Iowa to visit this weekend
By Erin Thompson Kansan sportswriter
Kansas basketball head coach Roy Williams received an oral commitment from Andrew Gooden last weekend and will look to persuade Iowa recruit Nick Collison to do the same this weekend.
Collision, 6-foot-9 forward from Iowa Falls, Iowa, has an official recruiting visit scheduled for this weekend in Lawrence. He has narrowed his choices to Duke and Kansas. Last weekend he visited Duke and is expected to announce his decision after his visit to Kansas.
Following his trip to Duke, Collison was confused as to what school he would attend, Mike Sullivan,
recruiting analyst, told the
Lawrence Journal-World.
Kansas had been considered the heavy favorite for Collison before last weekend.
The close proximity of Lawrence to his home town was a big selling point, and Dave Collison, his father and high school coach.
"The biggest drawback for Duke is its location," Dave Collison said. "At KU, he'd have the ability to get home once in a while, and we could get down there to see some games."
Sullivan told the Journal-World he thought the trip to Duke had added some confusion for Collison but that once he visited Kansas he should pick Kansas as his top choice.
Duke already has received an oral commitment from Nick Horvath, a 6-foot-10 senior from Arden Hills, Minn. Dave Collison said that Duke probably would redshift Horvath, but both Duke and Kansas have said
Nick would be able to play right away.
"That is definitely something to think about," Dave Collison said. "Duke has a number of big guys who are freshmen. He (Nick) eliminated Arizona because they recruited three big guys who are freshmen this year."
Collision will go to the Kansas-Illinois State football game Saturday night and will be matched with a basketball player that evening.
Collision visited Kansas on Labor Day weekend during his fourth unofficial recruiting visit and attended the Kansas-Oklahoma State game.
If Collison decides to play for Kansas, it could affect another recruit's decision.
Casey Sanders, a 6-foot-10 center from Tampa, has scheduled an official visit for the weekend of Oct. 16, which includes "Late Night with Roy Williams."
Sanders will not visit if Kansas has received a commitment from Collison before then, recruiting analyst Bob Gibbons said.
Williams made an in-home visit to Gooden last weekend in El Cerrito, Calif., where Gooden told him he planned to play basketball for the University.
Gooden averaged 17 points per game and 13 rebounds last year at El Cerrito High School. He emerged as a top recruit last July at the Adidas ABCD camp in New Jersey, where he was the top rebounder.
Kirk Hinrich, of Sioux City, Iowa, is no longer being recruited by Kentucky, Gibbons said. Hinrich will visit Oklahoma this weekend and will visit Kansas Oct. 3.
Other recruiting news
Brent Darby, 6-1 senior from River Rouge, Mich., committed to Ohio State. He had been considering Michigan State and Kansas.

Nebraska's athletic trainer already busy with injuries
The Associated Press
LINCOLN, Neb. - If you're a Nebraska football fan, athletic trainer Doak Ostergard says you don't want to know anything about him.
But if fans knew more about him, they probably would want to give Ostergard a pat on the back or a big hug. As the man who handles the Cornhuskers' injury prevention and rehabilitation, Ostergard has had an increasingly busy workload for the first three weeks of the season.
There were the damaged knees of running back DeAngelo Evans, safety Clint Finley and quarterback Bobby Newcombe. There were the ankle sprains of defensive end Kyle Vanden Bosch and defensive tackle Jason Wiltz.

"We seem to be pulling out of our nosedive now," Ostergard said. "We made it out of the Cal game with no major injuries."
That bodies well for the 'Huskers as they take advantage of an open date to prepare for ninth-ranked Washington. Ostergard is working to make sure No. 3 Nebraska is close to full strength for the Sept. 26 showdown.
Evans thanked Ostergard and the training staff. After missing 16 months last season with a pelvic muscle injury, Evans said it was nice to know rehabilitation for his injured knee was simple by comparison.

"They really didn't worry too much about it," Evans said. "They knew how to treat it when it came up."
Ostergard said he enjoyed getting to know many of the athletes who
"Sometimes I'm the whipping boy," Ostergard said. "Somehow, I'm supposed to prevent all the injuries."
A native of Gothenburg, Ostergard grew up hoping to coach basketball.
In his spare time, he dabbles as an inventor. Two certificates from the U.S. Patent Office hang on his office wall: one for an ankle exerciser, another for a shoulder harness.
"I started athletic training to give me an edge in becoming a basketball coach, but sooner or later you've got to do one or the other," he said.

Nike's well-known swoosh reduced
Shoe logo shrinks but won't vanish spokesman says
The Associated Press
PORTLAND, Ore. — The Nike swoosh, one of the world's most recognized corporate symbols, is being downsized.
After a year in which the sneaker giant posted earnings losses and was criticized for its overseas labor practices, Nike has removed the symbol from its corporate logo, advertising and letterhead —
replacing it with a lowercase "nike."
"We felt that having the swoosh be the ID for everything we do is probably too much pressure on that symbol," Nike spokesman Lee Weinstein said.
Although Nike's shoe designers have started to shrink the swoosh to a fraction of its former size, company officials insist the comet-like symbol isn't being retired. It will continue to grace uniforms, equipment and apparel.
"The swoosh always has been and always will be on our product," Weinstein said. "We are not retiring the swoosh."
Officials say they would be remiss to entirely set aside the swoosh.
"Wefelt that having the swoosh be the ID for everything we do is probably too much pressure on that symbol."
which by Nike's own research is recognized by 97 percent of the American public.
"It is the swoosh that has brought us to prominence, and it isn't going away," said Gordon Thompson, Nike's vice president of design.
Created by Portland State University student Caroline Davidson in 1971, the symbol represents the wing of the Greek goddess Nike. She
Lee Weinstein Nike spokesman
received $35 for the design at the time, although the company has since repaid her with stock.

The swoosh's lower profile is only the latest change for the once high-flying company, which saw its operating profits decrease 37 percent in the past fiscal year. Earlier this year, the company set aside its "Just Do it" slogan for the more proactive message "I Can."

Record ball not returned
Fan made catch wants exchange from McGwire
The Associated Press
ST. LOUIS — A lot of preparation went into catching Mark McGwire's 63rd home-run ball, and the fan who has it is considering cashing in.
"The ball is worth something to someone, and I'd like to have something for it myself," said John Grass, 46, of St. Louis. "Whatever happens, I got what I wanted."
Cardinals general manager Walt Jocketty said he didn't expect the team to do any negotiating.
"I don't know how you would figure out what it's worth." Jockeyty said. "It might not be worth much, depending on how many home runs he hits."
Grass is the first fan since McGwire hit his 55th home run who has not surrendered the ball. McGwire didn't appear concerned about it.
"That's all right," he said. "He can keep it."
Grass, a groundkeeper for a St. Louis area school district, said he hoped to meet McGwire and determine the value of the ball.
"He makes millions of dollars," Grass said. "I don't think there is anything wrong with something coming to me."
McGwire has given autographed jerseys and bats to other fans who have returned the home-run balls. Grass said he wanted to wait to see
if he got any offers for the ball. In the meantime, he is putting it in his safe deposit box.
"I saw it all the wav." he said.
In May, Grass and a friend bought four bleacher tickets for every St. Louis Cardinals game in September. The investment paid off for Grass, who said the ball came right to him in the eighth row of the bleachers beyond the left-center field wall.
Grass said he wasn't concerned about the value of the ball.
Grass said that several fans pushed and shoved him in an effort to pry the ball loose but that he quickly was surrounded by police, who gave him an escort.
After the game, Cardinals manager Tony La Russa walked by Grass and had a two-word comment: "Nice catch."
Fans visiting Hall of Fame set nine-year patron record
The Associated Press
COOPERSTOWN, N.Y. — The chase by Mark McGwire and Sammy Sosa for baseball's home-run record has helped rejuvenate interest in the Hall of Fame, where attendance is up for the first time in four years.
"I think it has a lot to do with a general good feeling with baseball this year," said Ken Meifert, director of sales at the Baseball Hall of Fame. "There's a lot of good things going on."
As of Sept. 14, more than 256,000 fans had visited the Hall of Fame, up about 7 percent from about 240,000 on the same date in 1997. It is the first increase since the strike in 1994.
"The last few days have been outstanding," Meifert said. "Since the record was broken, we've really been doing well."
The hall's attendance record of 410,000 was set in 1989 during its 50th anniversary. Meifert said.
An exhibit in the hall's atrium tracks the McGwire-Sosa home-run chase and has the bats and uniforms that Sosa, McGwire and Roger Maris wore when they hit their record-tying and record-breaking home runs.
Also, the New York Yankees have been threatening to break the 1906 Chicago Cubs' record of 116 wins in a season, which has generated even more interest. Mefert said.
"This has been pretty exciting here," he said.
Home-run hits bring ups, downs
The Associated Press
ST. LOUIS — Deni Allen, the St.
Louis Cardinals fan who caught
Mark McGwire's 60th home run
ball, is having trouble sleeping.
So is John Witt, the Chicago man who snagged Sammy Sosa's 61st home-run ball.
But the two blame their sleep deprivation on different reasons.
Witt has been too excited to sleep. He sold the baseball to a Chicago sports collector for $7,500.
Allen, 22, has spent some sleepy nights because he figures he
Witt's a veteran Chicago Cubs "ballhawk" who estimates he's snagged about 1,700 balls on Wave-
land Avenue outside Wrigley Field since the early 1980s. Of those he caught, Sosa's was the most valuable.
.
"I just got a divorce, and I really needed that money," said Witt, an unemployed father of two who lives in Dixon, Ill., about 100 miles west of Chicago.
He only wishes Sosa had reached 61 home runs before Mark McGwire had. Had that happened, Witt said his ball might have fetched $250,000 to $300,000 at auction.
autographed bats and balls and the opportunity to take some swings at a Cardinals batting practice.
He said he started losing sleep when reality sank in.
Allen has had a different experience. He gave the ball back to McGwire in exchange for a few
"When I heard that ball might have fetched $250,000 in an auction, I just felt — uggggh." Allen said, shaking his head.
"I was definitely drunk with excitement," Allen said. "I was really caught up in the whole Big Maceess."
But he now wishes he could have the moment, if not the ball, back.
Witt said he respected Allen's choice. But, he concedes, even if he had been younger and without financial responsibilities, he
doubles he would have donated the ball to a millionaire ballplayer.
Meanwhile, Allen's been dreaming up scenarios to take the financial sting out of his decision.
"It was my ball and my decision to sell it," he said. "If people want to call me greedy, that's their problem."
He'd like the St. Louis Cardinals, or Mark McGwire, to consider compensating those who returned valuable home-run balls Nos. 60, 61 and 62.
"The Cardinals have a wonderful opportunity that comes once in history to do the right thing," he said. "But I won't insist on it."

K-State defense psyched up to face Texas star Williams
The Associated Press
MANHATTAN—As a kid, Kansas State middle linebacker Jeff Kelly spent endless hours working on the family ranch.
On Saturday, when the Texas Longhorns come to Manhattan, he'll have his toughest chore yet. That's when Kelly, who anchors No. 5 Kansas State's vaunted trio of linebackers, will try to stop Longhorns running back Ricky Williams.
Williams, a powerful 225-pound back, was projected high as a top-five pick in the NLF draft before deciding to return to the Longhorns for his senior season. He's the leading returning vote-getter from the 1997 Heisman Trophy race, and he'll give Kelly a much more difficult test than the running backs of Kansas State's first two opponents, Indiana State and Northern Illinois. Both teams lost by a 66-point margin.
it'll be a battle of heavyweights when Williams takes the ball up the middle and tries to reach Kansas State's secondary.
He n't put his pads down and run over the top of you if you're not careful, "Kansas State coach Billy Snyder said. The Wildcats plan to try to force Williams to run the ball outside instead of baiting him into powering it up the middle. However, when he takes the inside route, Kelly said he would be ready to step up.
"Supposedly, we're the best linebackers in the nation," Kelly said. "It's a matchup everybody wants to see."
Although Williams is a threat to Kelly, he's also an opportunity for him. Like Williams, Kelly has NFL aspirations. One-on-one stops by Kelly could prove that those dreams are legitimate. After all, if he can stop a running back expected to quickly step into stardom at the next level, what would he do against the rest of the league?
"Jeff's definitely a Sunday player," Kansas State running back Eric Hickson said. Hickson, in his sixth year with the Wildcats, has played against many linebackers now in the NFL and said Kelly stacks up favorably—not only against linebackers, but against Williams, too.
"Jeff's capable of bringing anyone down. I don't think Jeff's going to back down from anything." Hickson said, "If he goes up in there, and it's just him and Ricky Williams, I've got my money on jeff."
C
Kelly doesn't see an isolation against Williams in the same light as Hickson, though.
"I'll just try to make a tackle. I don't care how bad I lose," he said. "I'm trying to make a tackle. I'm trying to prevent a score."
Kelly enters Saturday's game as the team leader in tackles. He also was a preseason candidate for the Butkus Award, given annually to the top collegiate linebacker in the nation. Kansas State's defense has yielded a nation-leading 128.5 yards per game.
Jordan's absence from flopped film pulls NBA star into court dispute
CHICAGO — How much difference Michael Jordan would have meant to a film that flipped is a question jurors must answer in a lawsuit against the Chicago Bulls star.
The Associated Press
And they'll have to remember this is the pre-championship, pre-MVP, pre-Space Jam Jordan being talked about in court.
Producers of Heaven is a Playground contend their film would have soared like one of Jordan's high-flying dunks had he appeared in a supporting role.
"We would have today a movie that is a classic," said Dean Dickie, a lawyer whose client is suing Jordan.
Jordan sat at the defense table Tuesday, using a back entrance to the courtroom to avoid reporters and onlookers. He is to testify next week in the
FABRICIO NORTON
Michael Jordan is being sued for as much as $20 million
case, which is expected to last about a month.
The movie was to be made in 1989. It was shot without Jordan in 1990 and released in 1991. With Loyola-Marymount-standout Bo Kimble taking Jordan's part, it made $168,000 at the box office, Dickie said.
Lawyers for both sides presented opening statements Tuesday in Cook County Circuit Court.
Heaven Corp., maker of Heaven is a Playground, is seeking $16 million to $20 million in damages, which it says represents the profit it would have made if Jordan had appeared in the film.
Jordan's lawyer, Frederick Sperling, scoffed that Jordan would have made that big a difference, pointing out that the Bulls star was to appear in about 12 minutes of a 104-minute film that was widely panned by critics.
Dickie seemed reluctant to attack the man he described as "the greatest basketball player ever." Instead, he went after Jordan's agent, David Falk.
Dickie portrayed Falk as manipulating Jordan, whose fame was growing during the time Fried and Bank were trying to make the movie. He said the agent talked Jordan out of appearing in the film to take more lucrative offers.
Dickie said Falk threatened Fried and Bank, saying he would destroy their careers, have them thrown in jail and make sure they never worked again, except in "Outer Mongolia."
Falk originally was named as a defendant in the lawsuit but was removed by Judge Richard Neville. Both sides told jurors they would prove a promise had been broken.
"When you make a promise and you commit to do something,you must honor that promise,"Dickie said.
Sperling, agreed that the case was about promises — but he offered a different twist. "Promises made, promises kept," Sperling told jurors.

Dr. Drew Pinsky and Adam Carolla from MTV's Loveline offer an invitation to KU students:
Let's talk about sex
By Angola Johnson Kansan staff writer
It's not sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll, but it's close.
It's close.
The popular MTV show *Loveline* is taking its act out of the studio and onto campus. Dr. Drew Pinsky and comedian Adam Carolla, the show's hosts, will cover topics such as sex, drugs and relationships at 7 p.m. tonight at the Lied Center.
SAM BATTERY
Lindsey Gaston, special events coordinator for Student Union Activities, said the event would not be televised because of contract terms between the hosts and MTV.
Gaston said the $20,000 price to bring the celebrities to the University was worth it because of SUA's priority to provide students with good entertainment.
"My committee was willing to take a large hit when we decided to bring Love-line to campus," Gaston said. "SUA is for student programming. I have no problem losing money for a beneficial program like this."
Tracie Schuler, graduate advisor for SUA, said that the organization would lose about $5,000 from the event.
"That's the maximum we would lose, but that figure will be less if we sell more tickets," Schuler said. "We won't know the exact figure until ticket sales are totaled."
Stewart Martin, Topeka senior, said that the money could have been spent on something more beneficial to the University.
"It's a little expensive, especially if it's not being televised," he said. "It's like pennies in a bucket. The money could've been better spent."
Kevin O'Rourke, Frontenac senior, said that the show promoted more entertainment than information.
Martin said that it would be difficult for students to talk openly about sensitive topics because unlike the television show, inquirers don't have the option of anonymity.
"Adam mentions masturbation about 50 times during the show," O'Rourke said. "Any informative side seems to be overshadowed by shock value."
Dr. Drew Pinsky (left) and comedian Adam Carolla will present their show Loveline tonight at the Lied Center. The popular MTV television program answers questions about love, sex and drugs and will cost Student Union Activities $20,000 to bring to campus. Contributed photo
"People aren't going to be totally candid in front of a crowd of strangers," Martin said. "I can't imagine getting up and talking about weird sexual encounters or veneer diseases."
In contrast, Jennifer Emming, Lenexa junior, said that KU students were straightforward enough to talk about sex and other issues honestly.
"People on this campus will say what they feel, especially once everyone gets settled." she said.
Gaston said the option of passing cards out to the audience was considered but that he decided an open format would be better.
"When Dr. Drew does these college tours, it usually starts out slow because everyone's a little timid at first." Gaston said. "Eventually, more questions are asked, and before you know it, it's a snowball effect. Then it's hard to end the show because people can't stop asking questions."
p can receive Tickets are $10 for students and $14 for non-students. Mary Smith, SUA box office supervisor, said that about 1,400 tickets had been sold for Loveline and that about 500 tickets were left.
"The floor is completely full and the balcony is looking pretty full," she said.
Smith said she expected to sell a large number of tickets today and to come close to a sellout.
"College students live day to day and really don't know how much they have to do in a week," Smith said. "I'd expect that we'll have a pretty good increase of ticket sales today and tonight at the door."
Gaston said that the majority of the students would come to Loveline to be entertained but that they should be prepared to be informed as well.
"We are going to draw them in with entertainment, then hit them with substance," he said. "People will walk away learning something from this."

Lawrence 12-year-old suspect in BB shootings
A 12-year-old Lawrence youth was detained in the Lawrence Juvenile Detention Center yesterday in connection with two BB gun shootings this week on 19th Street, Lawrence police said.
The two shootings, one Wednesday at the Kentucky Street intersection, the other Sunday at the Tennessee Street intersection, both were being investigated as agarated batteries.
The first incident occurred 8:50 p.m. Sunday when a 22-year-old Lawrence man, walking east on 19th Street near the Tennessee Street intersection, was struck in the side of his neck with what he thought was a BB. Lawrence police said.
"The victim said it didn't feel like an insect bite or sting," said Sgt. George Wheeler of the Lawrence Police Department.
The victim received a small red mark on the right side of his neck but did not seek medical attention.
The second shooting occurred 6 p.m. Wednesday a block east of the first incident, at the intersection of Kentucky and 19th streets.
In that incident, a 47-year-old Lawrence man, driving west on 19th Street, was shot in the hand when he was stopped at the intersection.
"The suspect shot at and struck the victim's right index finger while it rested on the steering wheel," Wheeler said.
Police said the youth probably would not face any criminal penalties because of his age.

Rock Chalk announces theme for 1999 show
"Wonders Never Cease" will be the theme of the 1999 Rock Chalk Revue, said John Laing, promotions coordinator
The theme was announced last night at the Frontier Room in the Burge Union to the 11 pairs of University living organizations that have committed to submitting notebooks for the student variety show and philanthropy that is a 50-year-old KU tradition.
The notebooks, which contain such items a script, set design and choreography ideas based on the theme, are due in early November. The top five shows will be selected to perform short musicals in the revue March 11-13.
Last year, the revue donated nearly $43,000 and more than 33,000 hours of community service to the United Way of Douala County.
Kansan staff report
MIT fraternity charged in death of freshman
BOSTON — A county grand jury has indicted a former fraternity at MIT for the 1997 binge drinking death of a freshman.
Phi Gamma Delta was charged with one count each of manslaughter and hazing in indictments unsealed today. No charges were brought against individual members, Suffolk County District Attorney Ralph Martin said yesterday.
If convicted of hazing, the fraternity could be fined $3,000. Prosecutors could not explain immediately what the maximum penalty would be for manslaughter.
Scott Krueger, 18, who recently had arrived at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology from Orchard Park, N.Y., died following a night of binge drinking at the fraternity house.
Martin said criminal charges against MIT administrators were not warranted.
The fraternity was shutdown following Krueger's death last Sept. 29. Krueger, a fraternity pledge, died two days after being found in a coma in the basement of the off-campus fraternity house.
MIT has announced that all freshmen starting in 2001 will be required to live in campus dorms.
Crews search Pacific for crash survivors
CAMP PENDLETON, Calif. — Rescue crews searched yesterday for survivors after a Marine Corps helicopter with four people aboard plunged into the Pacific Ocean 12 miles off Southern California.
The crash occurred at 8:20 p.m. Wednesday while the UH-1 Huey helicopter was practicing takeoff and landing maneuvers from the USS Rushmore, about 12 miles west of Oceanside, Gunnery Sat. Lee Tibbett said.
The pilot, co-pilot and two crew chiefs — crew members who assist in takeoffs and landings — were missing, he said. All four men were with the Marine Light Attack Helicopter Squadron 267 and were from the Camp Pendleton Marine Base, which is 30 miles northwest of San Diego, Tibbett said.
It was not immediately known what caused the helicopter to plummet into the ocean, he said.
Gunmen execute 18 in northern Mexico
MEXICO CITY — Gunmen in northern Mexico pulled 21 people from their beds early yesterday, lined them up against a wall and opened fire. Eighteen people were killed and three were seriously wounded, police said.
Police said the attack took place at 4:30 a.m. in El Sauzal, a suburb of the resort of Ensenada and only 60 miles south of the U.S. border.
Eugenio Carrillo, director of the Red Cross in Ensenada, said the victims lived in three neighboring houses. He said the dead included nine adults, two teenagers, six children and a baby.
Ensenada Judicial Police officer Jose Ramon Espinoza said that the victims were members of three families but that it was unclear whether the three families were related.
One of the wounded, Fermin Castro, was in serious condition with a bullet wound to the head, Carrillo said.
He said he had no information on suspects or a possible motive.
Officer sues Shell Oil for racial discrimination
CHICAGO — The note posted behind the counter at the gas station was written in Urdau, so most customers were not likely to understand it.
But an employee of the Shell station in Chicago understood and told an African-American police officer that the sign read, "Do not release for blacks — first get the money."
It was the first link in a chain of events that led to the filing of a lawsuit in U.S. District Court on Wednesday.
The lawsuits seek class-action status and names Shell Oil Co. station in five states. It also seeks unspecified damages and an end to what it called a nationwide pattern of discrimination by Shell.
It was filed by Doron Hill, the officer told about the note.
Hill and some associates made videotapes at several Shell stations of a Caucasian man being allowed to pay for gas after pumping and then of Hill being forced to pay before getting gas moments later at the same pump.
A representative said Shell was investigating and had told dealers that they should comply with federal civil rights laws.

WASHINGTON — Renewing efforts to curb internet pornography, a House panel cleared a bill yesterday that would require operators of commercial Web sites to restrict young people's access to harmful material.
Last year, the Supreme Court struck down the 1996 Communications Decency Act, Congress' first attempt to limit youth access, as too broad and likely to keep such material from adults who have a right to see it.
Rep. Mike Oxley, R-Ohio, chief sponsor of the bill, said the measure limiting access by people under 17 could survive a court challenge because it was a more reasonable product than the 1996 law.
The House Commerce subcommittee on telecommunications, trade and consumer protection approved the bill by voice vote and sent it to the full committee for further review.
In Oxley's House bill, Internet service providers would escape liability for adult-oriented material they did not produce, but they would be required to inform consumers about devices available commercially to block children's access to harmful material.
Violators could face civil and criminal penalties.

NPHC to discuss intake process
The members of the National Pan-Hellenic Council will have their annual informational session Sunday in the Kansas Union to teach students about their individual organizations.
From 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. students can walk throughout rooms on the Union's fifth floor and listen to each chapter discuss its goals and backgrounds.
Tiffany Cunningham, National Pan-Hellenic Council vice president, said that this was a good opportunity for students to learn what the organizations were about.
The National Pan-Hellenic Council represents the traditionally African-American fraternities and sororites, as well as the KU Latina sorority. Last year, about 45 students visited the informational session.
"It's a place where we can get to know them, and they can get to know us," she said.
She said that anyone who might be interested in joining an organization was encouraged to attend.
The process involved in joining African-American fraternity or sorority depends upon each chapter, said Adrian Franks, National Pan-Hellenic Council president. There will be a question-and-answer period during which students can ask about the individual intake processes.

Missouri Students Association apologizes on behalf of fans
Similar apology urged in return
By Jason Pearce
Kansan staff writer
The University of Missouri Students Association officially apologized yesterday on behalf of its fans who bombarded the University of Kansas band with bottles and fruit at Saturday's football game.
Those objects, including full bottles of water, empty whiskey bottles and oranges, hit some band members as they waited for the halftime show to begin. The objects did not seriously injure any of the band members.
Rob Willard, president of the University of Missouri Students Association, said that the resolution included an apology from all Missouri students for the behavior of a few.
"We are also asking for an apology from Kansas Student Senate for the behavior of some of its fans," Willard said.
He said that a KU fan threw a
beer in the face of a Missouri ticket-office employee after a dispute about tickets for the game, and the resolution accused a Kansas fan of spraying mace in the face of a Missouri student
"The Kansas senate also
"The Kans should apologize for the actions of some of those fans," Willard said. KU band member Ben Tatar High.
M
land Park, ill., junior, said that the apology was a nice gesture and a step in the right direction.
"But it is difficult for a student senate to speak for a bunch of drunken fans," he said.
Tatar said that he had talked about the incident with many band members who thought the Missouri fans were wrong in their actions.
"Many fans in the student section were taunting us with personal attacks and throwing stuff at us." he said. "Those actions are very difficult to forgive, especially when the band is not a threatening group."
Tatar said that some of the band members would not go back for future games in Columbia, Mo.
"For such a long bus ride out there, it is not worth it to be abused." he said.
Willard raised the question why the KU band stood near the Missouri student section before the halftime performance.
"Why was the marching band standing next to a bunch of excited fans?" he said.
Tatar said that band members had designated beginning positions.
"We are specified to start in those places. It was not to provoke anything." he said.
Willard also said that he asked the Missouri police department and the athletic department to issue a report on the incidents and to attempt to resolve them.
"I have never seen a reaction by the fans like this in my four years at Missouri," he said.
Willard said that both schools had a long-standing rivalry that was the oldest west of the Mississippi River and stems back
"Many fans in the student section were taunting us with personal attacks and throwing stuff at us. Those actions are very difficult to forgive, especially when the band is not a threatening group."
Ben Tatar KU band member
to the Civil War
"These feelings have been perpetuated down through the years," he said.
University of Kansas Student Senate member Scott Kaiser said that the behavior of many Missouri fans was deplorable.
"I don't see that our Student Senate should give an apology for one or two fans, or we would be doing that all the time," he said. "But it was appropriate for the Missouri senate to apologize because a lot of their fans were acting like monkeys."
A resolution regarding fan behavior and safety
Whereas, the vast majority of students at the University of Missouri value a positive spirit of competition.
Whereas, an isolated minority of Missouri students failed to uphold that spirit of competition by throwing objects at the players of the University of Kansas football team and the University of Kansas marching band.
Whereas, an isolated minority of fans of the University of Kansas football team also violated this spirit of competition when one fan sprayed mace in
the eyes of a ROTC student, while another KU fan threw a beer in the face of a student employee of the ticket office.
Therefore, be it resolved by the Senate of the Missouri Students Association, on behalf of all students at the University of Missouri, that:
1. We formally apologize to the football players, marching band and every student at the University of Kansas for the appalling behavior of the isolated minority of Missouri fans.
2. We condemn the behavior of the above mentioned Mis-
sourifans.
3. We respectfully ask the student government of the University of Kansas to issue a formal apology to the students of the University of Missouri for the behavior of the isolated minority of Kansas fans.
4. We ask the Police Department and Athletic Department of the University of Missouri to issue a written report on the events of September 12 and to continue to pursue the investigation until it is resolved.
5. We encourage the Chancellor, the Director of the Athletic
Department, the Chief of the MUPD, the MSA President and all other appropriate members of the MU community to initiate a discussion about the issue of fan behavior and safety at athletic events. We further ask that this discussion culminate in a report to be delivered to the MSA Senate.
Respectfully submit
their application of Missouri Students Association
Respectfully submitted.

Dangerous street intersections deserve immediate public attention
The volume of traffic in Lawrence increases annually. Those who are responsible for engineering the flow of traffic face new problems every year as they change the makeup of the streets of this small town to accommodate the influx of vehicles.
Sometimes potential problems concerning high-volume traffic can be remedied in advance. For instance, when J.C. Penney's began construction in south Lawrence, a traffic light was installed at 35th and Iowa to make the department store more accessible.
Unfortunately, other problems are not solved until after the problem area becomes the site of a high number of accidents. When this occurs, the city of Lawrence sends the Kansas Department of Transportation a list of intersections that require additional funding for improvements.
Such improvements could mean installing a traffic signal or widening
The city of Lawrence should remedy dangerous intersections in town.
the road to make a left-turn lane. City Manager Mike Wildgen said that this year, intersections such as 15th and Iowa, 23rd and Massachusetts, and 6th and Vermont, among others, have high rates of accidents and will be reported to the state with a request for additional funding.
The city of Lawrence recognizes the problem of the high volume of traffic, but there are some intersections that plague drivers and have not yet been improved. One example is 10th and Vermont. Although other intersections along the street have signals, 10th has only a stop sign.
The driver's sight is often obstructed by a row of parked cars. Although that
site has not been deemed as highly prone to accidents, crossing or turning at this intersection requires a careful eye and a sufficient amount of guts.
Another example is the intersection of 15th and Engel. This intersection lies at the crest of Daisy Hill, and Engel is a main road that residence hall residents use. Making a left turn into Engel can be a harrowing experience, especially around 5 p.m.
Drivers also must wait for long periods of time to turn onto 15th Street. There have been studies conducted recently on that intersection, but no actions were taken.
The city of Lawrence should examine the intersection of 10th and Vermont streets, and re-examine the one at 15th and Engel. Although they are not considered sites with high accident rates, they are potentially hazardous and often a nuisance to the drivers in Lawrence.

No excuses for ducking Election Day
Voting at KU is easier than some students might think. Even out-of-state students or those not from Douglas County can register and vote in the gubernatorial election Nov. 3.
They should do this in one of two ways: Students who want to vote in local elections should register in Douglas County. A Douglas County address is all that is necessary to prove residency, regardless of how long a student has lived there. A previous address must be included to cancel any other registration.
Students can also vote in their hometown elections. Absentee ballots can be sent as many as 20 days
Voting in elections when away from home is not as complicated as it may seem.
before the election Day and must be returned by the close of the polls. Applications for absentee ballots can be requested from and returned to the county election officer.
Although the election is not until Nov. 3, registration deadlines in Kansas are approaching. Oct. 19 is the deadline to register. Students wishing to vote by mail must apply for their absentee ballot by Oct. 30.
Questions concerning deadlines or eligibility can be answered by calling 1-800-262-VOTE. Out-of-state students should contact their county election officer for details.
Eligible voters can register at the Department of Motor Vehicles while renewing their drivers' licenses.
Absentee ballots make it possible to vote while living elsewhere. Even sick, disabled or illiterate voters can be assisted in utilizing advanced voting ballots. KU students should not let the seemingly daunting task of dealing with the government on any level keep them from exercising their right to vote.

Life from chaos to order teaches peculiar lesson
It's been a slow, gradual drip, my distillation process. When I was a freshman, my life was full of clutter. Actually, I was a mess. I went school in a foreign land: Texas. Actually, I
went to school in a foreign
tent to school at Texas
Christian University. It was
another in a long line of
paradoxes in my life; I was
neither Texan nor Christian.
When I showed up at school, I found out that my roommate's name was Kenneth Kitchener Kearney. Yeah, KKK. Alarms went off in my head. "Uh-oh" is the censored version of what I was thinking. He turned out to be a bizarre, 6-foot-3-inch. 125-nound.

PETER HAYES
My residence assistant stuck his head through our door one day. He was checking rooms. He didn't even want to come in. He looked around the room, looked at me in some sort of confused horror, and then just shook his head. He told me that unless we cleaned our room in the next two days it would be condemned, and we would be assessed a $150 fine. Condemned. Yes, it was that bad. We were pigs in slop.
upbeat gooof. He turned out to be the oppose of what I had predicted. Between the two of us, we managed to maintain the filthiest dorm room I have ever seen. It was disgusting. It was known as the "party room." I never once had sheets on my mattress, and at least five people slept on our garbage can of a floor several nights a week. Once I woke up to roll over and drop my hand in an open jar of Frito Lay's Cheese Dip. Yuck.
That was just one example of clutter in my life. Class was another. My first semester, I had a very difficult time attending classes. Ok, knowingly and apathetically, I skipped them. I took Introduction to Sociology that semester. It was an 8:30 a.m. class. It was a private school, and if you missed more than three classes, your letter grade dropped and you received a letter from the dean. Letters from the dean piled up in my mailbox. One morning I was jarred awake by the phone at 11 in the morning. I had just gone to sleep four hours earlier.
"Hello, Mr. Winter?" The voice sounded familiar. It took me a few seconds to connect an image to that. That image was of Dr. Bernstein.
my sociology professor. Once again, the toned-down "uh-oh" rang through my mind.
"Yes, sir, I think so."
"Mr. Winter, are you still enrolled in my class?"
"Mr. Winter, you can only miss a total of six classes before I required to fail you."
"Dr. Bernstein, since I've been at college, I've been experiencing a lot of pressure. I can't deal with it. I used to have a major problem with insomnia. Since I've been at college, it's been recurring."
Whoops, I thought. I thought fast. My quickly-deteriorating, young college career was staring over a ravine. On impulse, I lied.
I lied. It wasn't complete fiction, but it was still a lie. He bought it. He actually apologized to me and asked if there was anything he could do. I said there wasn't. He told me to go to his next class, I did and then I never missed one again. I ended up getting a decent grade.
"Oh, yeah...well, uh, how many have I missed?"
"Twenty."
It's been five years since that first semester. I have changed a lot in the interim. After running the gamut of degrees — psychology, political science, journalism, film, English — I have chosen the two that I will finish out my collegiate career with: biology and advertising. Yes, it's an odd combo, I know, but I am an odd combo of flash and truth, fun and understanding. It must be because I'm a Gemini.
My personality now is only vaguely reminiscent of that confused, cluttered kid. I've done quite a bit of filtering since then. My apartment is almost immaculately clean. It almost floored my father when he visited me. I am immaculately clean. I never miss class. I do all of my homework. I have established a semi-solid belief system for myself.
I actually exercise. I spent four years on the couch thinking that "outside" was a curse word. I carry a planner. It is almost scary, but in reality, my life is much more manageable than it used to be. It is much easier to exist without the constant fear that the dean is going to smash in my door and forcibly extract me from his college. Life is a filtering process. I'm on the other side of this one, and let me tell you from experience, it's much easier when you learn to leave some of the messy stuff behind.

Lost chapter of classic shows impossible dream
Nick Bartkoski opinion@kansan.com
D during my recent journey to Spain for the running of the bulls with Enrique the Pool Lad, I was lucky enough to find an original copy of "Don Quixote." I was ecstatic.
After I asked someone to translate it for me, I found a lost chapter that must have been removed by editors during the past few centuries. The book seller suggested that perhaps it had been removed because it lacked a moral, theme or focus. I completely disagreed. This is a timeless problem for any man looking for love or at least any man looking for love who weighs upwards of

original copy of "Don Quixote"
until I remembered that I
couldn't read Spanish.
In all his years of travel, Don Quixote met many misadventures. He also met with several plates of chili-cheese fries and became no longer known as the lanky knight from La Mancha. The 500-pound behemoth of La Mancha was a much more apt description. Plus, his years of riding from misadventure to misadventure did not improve his social skills. The only person that still put up with him was Sancho.
In the days of old, there lived a man named Quixana, who took the name of Don Quixote. Don Quixute rode through the plains of Spain with his trustworthy squire, Sancho Panza. Quixute thought himself to be a knight of the highest order of chivalry, but to be fair, he also bought that whole "oral sex isn't adulter" bit.
Coming to a town, Quixote noticed a bar where many attractive women were. He turned to Sancho and declared, "Hold up, my dear Sancho. I am feeling randy on this fine evening. Let us go to where the beautiful babies are and make forth a booty call."
"Oh, my eyes must be deceiving me," responded Sancho. "Is the great Don Quixote giving up on the chaste and beautiful Dulcinea del Torozo?"

"Let there never be a day when my mind does not go to Dulcinea," Quixote said. "However, there is a section of the chivalric code that forces Dulcinea to stay pure and chaste while I attempt to copulate with anything that moves. I believe it is called the double standard."
"Exactly what I was thinking, my liege," Sancho responded, although he was still relatively certain that Quixote was a couple knights short of a round table.
Knight and squire entered the bar. Quixote looked at the ladies and thought to himself, "Who could resist an errant knight of my great reputation and candor." But when Sancho took
Sancho looked around the room and saw all of the women who were practicing "Death Before Eye Contact," and those whose eyes accidentally strayed toward the knight were then racked with explosive vomiting.
Sancho watched as the knight made his approach. The woman tried to humor Quixote as he clumsily hit on her. However, when he refused to leave, the look of disgust on her face, present since he arrived, grew and grew. Finally she raised her knee to his groin, and the knight hit the floor once more.
Excellent point, my master, but perhaps we should play hard to get and, well, leave," Sancho said.
"Never, my dear Sancho," cried Quixote,
"especially since I have my eye on that gorgeous blonde over there."
"I believe I'll start with that young vision of beauty," Quixote said to his squire. He was gesturing toward a lovely young woman with short dark hair in the corner of the bar. He walked over to her and said, "That dress looks fabulous on you, but it would look even better slung over my horse Rozinante in the morning."
"Perhaps we should, dear Sancho, but for now, I refuse to cease being on the prowl, for these women are obviously all flirting with me," Quixote said.
"Really?" replied the young maiden. "Well, I feel almost the same way about your masculine figure. It would look even better on the floor balled up in the fetal position after I spray you with Mace." With that, the maiden took her pepper spray and reduced the errant knight to a crawling blind man. And with that, she walked off toward a collection of Greeks.
"You seem to have quite a bit of trouble with enchanters," said Sancho. "Perhaps some day we should find these enchanters and put an end to their constant threat."
a look around, he thought, "How can an errant knight of his personal skills and magnitude think he has a chance with these women?"
"By my truth," cried the knight. "That beautiful maiden whom I approached must have been changed into a man-hating shrew by an enchanter just to thwart my attempt at ribaldry.
"Truly, that woman was very interested in me," Quixote said, an octave higher than his usual voice.
"When you tell those lies that loud does it make them any truer?" Sancho asked.
"I said 'nothing could be truer,' my liege."
"I think nothing could be deaf, my name."
"As I thought, so let us go on, my dear Sancho," Quixote said. "The women of this land do not deserve a man like me."
"I don't think they could agree more."

Jewish ring in new year
By Chad Bettes Kansan staff writer
Many students walking through the Kansas Union yesterday were greeted by Dana Bleacher with a smile and the question, "Would you like some apples and honey?"
Blecher, a Steinhardt fellow with the Jewish Campus Service Corps and recent KU graduate, used the day to share an important Jewish tradition with Jews and other students.
Apples and honey is a way to bring in a sweet new year, Blecher said. In Jewish culture, sunund Sunday night will begin the observance of the new year 5759.
Monday is Rosh Hashana, the first day of the new year and the beginning of the high holy days in the Jewish religion. The high holy days end Sept. 30, with Yom Kippur, the day of atonement.
"These are the two most holy days for the Jewish community," said Donny Cohn, Omaha senior.
Because Lawrence does not have a Jewish synagogue, Blecher, KU Hillet and the Jewish Community Center are coordinating local observances.

KJHK to increase wattage output

The Federal Communications Commission granted KJHK an application for a power increase from 100 watts to 2,900 watts.
"Hopefully, we'll get a lot more requests," said Dumler, co-host for a rock-music show from 2 to 5 p.m. Mondays." We'll get to see what people want to hear outside Lawrence."

Bids from vendors competing to install the new equipment for KJHK were due yesterday. The vendor will be chosen next week and has 60 days to complete the construction.
Hawke said students living on the east side of Mount Oread had a difficult time obtaining the signal but that with the wattage increase, listeners in Lawrence would have an improved signal.
Gary Hawke, general manager of KJHK, said the power increase could allow an audience of 1 million people to listen to the station. Right now, the station has the ability to reach only 100,000 people.
Mistakes also could be a problem. he said.
Hawke said the radio station could attract more sponsorship because of a possible increased amount of listeners.
Dumler said she was not afraid of her mistakes getting bigger.
"It's a student-run radio station, and you have to expect students to make mistakes." Dumler said.
said there could be some difficulty with doing the construction during that time of year.
The construction should be completed during Thanksgiving break because the station usually shuts down for a couple of days. Hawke
"Weather is a big factor since someone has to climb to the top of the building to install the new antenna," he said.

Professor learns to live with terminal cancer
William G. Bartholome speak to an audience about his battle against cancer. Bartholome, professor of the history and philosophy of medicine at the University of Kansas Medical Center, said medicine needed to be removed from dying in the United States. Photo by Joseph Griffin/KANSAN.
By Carolyn Mollett
Kansan staff writer
Americans should be telling doctors to stop robbing them of the final chapter of their lives, William G. Bartholome last night.
"We've got to change the way people die in America." he said.
Bartholome was diagnosed with Adenocarcinoma of the esophagus with local extension — a terminal cancer — in 1994.
Bartholome, professor of the history and philosophy of medicine at the University of Kansas Medical Center, said Americans should recognize death as a part of life. Doctors have a responsibility to inform patients when they are near death so patients can stop worrying and really live, he said.
"I really liked his comments about trying to medecialize death," said Steve Kapeh, assistant professor of social welfare. "The medical profession has taken away people's right to die with dignity."
Since he was diagnosed, Bartholome said he had been living with death on his shoulder. And because he is so aware of his mortality, he has lived a better life than ever before, he said.
"Living my life as a person with a terminal illness has enriched my life beyond my wildest expectations," Bartholome said.
He said that he had more freedom and that he felt more alive than he ever did in his frantic, precancerous life.
"Life does not seem like a box of chocolates to me," Bartholomeo said. "Life seems like serving after serving of an incredibly rich chocolate mousse."
Bartholome shared his illness narrative with more than 100 people in 3140 Wescoe Hall.
He has been around the country sharing his unique perspective as doctor and patient.
"He brought some real credibility to the subject," Kapp said.
By the time he was diagnosed, there was nothing that could stop the cancer's progress.
bartheloane decided the best treatment option was to have his medical colleagues cut out as much of the cancer as they could.
After he got out of the hospital and slowly recovered, the sadness of his situation hit Bartholome.
"The most horrible aspect of that experience was having my future taken away from me," he said.
Bartolomeo said that after a period of doing little but sleeping and crying, he went to a doctor, who suggested that he try to go and live life.
"It was like I was liberated to go live out whatever time we had left."
he said.
Bartholome married his fiance, and they took a honeymoon to Greece. They sold their separate houses and bought a home together.
Bartholome was surprised when he realized in Summer 1995 that he had lived one year with cancer. He wrote a meditation that expressed his joy and new freedom.
Now, after four years living with cancer, Bartholome has written four meditations.
"Inclining one's ear toward death on one's shoulder is a way of listening to God," he said.
Three University of Kansas faculty members discussed life in Lawrence for Mexican and Chinese immigrants at a Lawrence Alliance panel last night.
By Steph Brewer Kanson staff writer
Panelists share immigrant views
The panel, held at the Multicultural Resource Center, featured a history of Mexican and Chinese immigration to Kansas and anecdotes of personal experiences.
Valerie Mendoza, assistant professor of history, gave a background of Mexican settlements in Kansas, while Steve Ramirez, assistant director of the Equal Opportunity Office, and Man Kong, associate professor of electrical engineering and computer science, related stories from their lives.
Ramirez' grandparents emigrated from Mexico as adults, and Kong moved from Hong Kong to California when he was 21.
"I try to provide a mix of scholarly analysis and personal experience," said Barbara Bonnekessen, Lawrence Alliance's program
Bonnekessen organized the panel, the third in a six-month series of monthly discussions on race relations in Lawrence and Kansas. Ten people attended last night's discussion.
Mendoza began the panel discussion by giving a brief history of early Mexican life in Kansas. She said that in giving speeches, she noticed that most Americans weren't aware of Kansas' significant Mexican-American population.
director.
"Most audiences are surprised to know there are any Mexican-Americans in Kansas at all," she said.
She said that most Mexicans settled in Kansas after working to build the railroads. Through these jobs, large Mexican-American communities developed in Kansas towns such as Topeka and Garden City.
Despite the numbers of Mexican-Americans in Kansas, Ramirez said there still was some discrimination in Lawrence.
"It's overall pretty good, but
He used the issue of the upcoming Spanish television channel as an example. He said people had been trying for years to get the channel. The channel will be added in December.
don't think it's this have a lot of people like to think it is," he said.
"I just saw that as another sign of people not willing to accept what's not considered to be the norm in Lawrence," he said.
Kong also said that he and his family had been victims of discrimination. Kong said his son began having problems at school when he was eight years old.
"On and off some of his classmates were teasing him," Kong said. "You look different, why is your face flat?"
He said he was surprised because the children were so young.
Kong said that he wanted to make the point that discrimination existed in town but that he still thought the community was, for the most part, racially tolerant.
Chemistry professor vies for society office
"Overall, I think Lawrence is still a very good community," he said.
By Julie M. Sachs Kansan staff writer
Growing up, Daryl Busch didn't know about chemistry. His high school did not even offer the course.
Now, a distinguished professor of chemistry at the University of Kansas, Busch is running for president of the world's largest science organization — the American Chemical Society.
Busch's platform, he said, stresses the opportunity to improve the image of chemistry to the community.
"It worries me that chemicals have a bad connotation," Busch said. "We should have everybody in the world feel comfortable about thinking about chemicals."
One of the ways he plans to make the world comfortable with chemistry is through the Internet.
Busch said if he was elected, he planned to create a Web site that would solve everyday problems, such as tough stains on clothes, using chemistry.
in their problem and receive a chemical solution.
"We've got to get people's interest and find the value for people," Busch said.
People could access the site, type
Busch said the value of science was strong after World War II but that it fell with the Berlin Wall. He said he wanted to see the value become strong again.
"We had this immense compulsion to have the latest in research," Busch said. "This research could make us safe. When there is a threat it is easy to see the value."
If Busch is elected to the presidency, it will have a positive impact on the University, said Joseph Heppert, associate professor of chemistry.
"I think these kinds of opportunities benefit KU in a lot of different ways," Heppert said. "It publicizes KU's name and its faculty. The president of the American Chemical Society can have a pretty big impact on the quality of undergraduate education. That reflects back on KU as well."
Busch said he had received
immense support from his colleagues to put his ideas into action and him into office.
Heppert said Busch had been a good influence in the field of education.
"Daryl's been in education for a number of years," he said. "He has been an advocate of education and undergraduate education for a long time. He is a very good teacher. In that regard, I think he will act as an advocate for education in chemistry."
Busch's opponent for the position is Glenn Crosby, a faculty member at Washington State University.
"He is a good friend, a fine scholar and an exceptional educator besides being a good guy," Busch said of Crosby. "But I'm not voting for him, and I already told him that."
Only members of the organization are allowed to vote in the election. Busch estimated that about twenty percent of the society's 155,000 members actually would vote.
Ballots for the election are mailed Oct. 6 and must be returned by the end of November.

Student striking international chord
By Mariana Paiva
Kayne staff writer
Kansan staff writer
An international award-winning piano student from the University of Kansas will open the 1988-99 Lied Center Series Sunday when he performs his first solo presentation at the University.
"I'm very excited, very proud that I can play there," said Tao Chong, Hong Kong graduate student. "I feel so honored."
Chang will perform at 3:30 p.m. at the Lied Center. Next, he will perform in New York's Carnegie Hall, as well as in London and Paris.
Chang received the engagements after winning first place in the XII VIanna da Motta International Music Competition in 1997.
"When you win an international competition, you have more chances to perform in other countries," Chang said. "I'll try to do my best to show to people what art means to me."
Winning the prize was a special honor for Chang. He said pianist Viana da Motta had taught Sequela Costa, distinguished professor of piano, with whom Chang is pursuing a doctoral degree.
Richard Angelietti, KU professor of piano, met Chang five years ago when Chang transferred to the University to pursue a master's degree in piano.
"I've seen a lot of talented students performing here in the University, but he is
an extraordinary talent and a marvelous artist," Angeloleta said.
he said that he didn't think that the awards, international performances and fame would change Chang's personality.
"Chang is the type of person who won't let this kind of fame influence him." Angelletti said. "He is not playing to get famous. He is going to grow, if possible, as an artist."
Michalis Koutsousides, Nicosia, Cyprus, sophomore and composition major, said he was proud that international students studying at the University were succeeding abroad.
"Chang is very well-respected in the piano student society," he said. "It encourages us to keep studying here because it proves that we have good teachers."
for his performance Sunday, Chang will play music from Nickolai Medner, Franz Schubert and Maurice Ravel.
When he finishes his doctoral program, Chang wants to stay in the United States to perform and teach.
"I really like this country and its people," said Chang. "It keeps me more in contact with nature, what gives me more inspiration to work."
Tickets for the performance are available at KU box offices and cost $15 and $10 for the public; $7.50 and $5 for KU, Haskell and K-12 students; and $14 and $9 for senior citizens.

Band Day lets KU toot its own horn
By Pallavi Agarwal Kansan staff writer
For the first time, a 51-year-old University of Kansas tradition will be under the spotlight tomorrow.
About 6,100 high school students from 81 schools in Kansas and Missouri will accompany the KU Marching Band under Memorial Stadium's electric lights at the 51st annual Band Day.
The bands will march through downtown Lawrence tomorrow afternoon and will perform at halftime of the Kansas-Illinois State University football game later that evening.
For the last 50 years, the performance has been held during an afternoon football game.
The downtown parade will start from 7th and Massachusetts streets and will end in South Park, 10th and Massachusetts streets. Bands
will start playing at 1:30 p.m. and will play for about one-and-a-half hours.
During that time, Lawrence police will restrict traffic from 6th and Massachusetts streets to South Park and also restrict cross traffic from New Hampshire and Vermont streets that lead to that section of Massachusetts Street, said Sgt. George Wheeler, public information officer with the Lawrence Police Department.
The University's annual Band Day is one of the oldest and the largest events of its kind in the United States.
It was begun as a way to get high school students to visit the University, participate in the excitement of a major college football game and perform in front of a relatively large crowd, said Tom Stidham, associate director of KU Bands.
recruitment tool for the University," he said. "And, to a large extent, still is."
During halftime, the bands will perform "I'm a Jayhawk," "Military Escort," "Patriotic Finale," more commonly known as the "Battle Hymn of the Republic" and some popular songs such as "Circle of Life" from the movie "The Lion King" and "YMCA," the 70s hit by the Village People.
"When it was first started, it was a
The pieces chosen are ones that would be recognizable to the crowd and do not require too much technical finesse on the part of the band players, Stidham said.
"The bands get to rehearse for only 30 minutes after their downtown parade. We have to choose songs that are entertaining and not too technically difficult," he said.
Coordinating such a mammoth band gathering is not an easy affair, Stidham said.
To help synchronize all of the players, several conductors, band directors and drum majors will have to work in unison.
"We have a primary conductor on the east and west sideline and three graduate students placed on each side of the stands along with band directors and drum majors on the field." he said.
Emily Dose, Fairway junior, is a member of the Marching Jayhawks, the University's marching band.
"It a lot of fun for the high school kids. My high school band did not come. The trip to KU is exciting and playing with KU Bands is fun." she said.
Wheeler said that KU students and Lawrence residents who wanted to watch the downtown parade should start from home well in advance
"There is a large crowd on Band Day. Parking is definitely at a premium that day," he said.

One True Thing a smart drama
By Jeremy M. Doherty
Kansan movie critic
From Terms of Endearment to Philadelphia, Hollywood has loved to trot out the disease drama as a means of exploring a larger social interest.
To their ranks, we can add One True Thing, a remarkably intelligent character piece.
A bulk of the credit goes to director Carl Franklin, whose previous credits include the brooding thrillers One False Move and Devil in a Blue Dress.
Based on Anna Quindlen's best seller, One True Thing concerns itself with an upper-middle class New England family. Dad's a professor of literature. Mom's a happy homemaker and their kids have struck out on their own.
But daughter Ellen (Renee Zellweger) regrets returning home even to attend a birthday party for her father, George (William Hurt). Her mother, Kate (Meryl Streep), smothers her with the expected kisses and pampering, but George is unable to offer any praise to Ellen's accomplishments as a journalist. The son in the family, Brian (Tom Everett Scott), is terrified of

During the visit, Kate is diagnosed with a terminal form of cancer and given very little time to live. Unwilling to take a sabbatical from his teaching, George insists that Ellen abandon her job and play nursemaid to her ailing mother.
Must films would take the sentimental route at this point, but Franklin aims higher. Working from a smart screenplay by Karen Croner, the director eschews overdrawn melodrama in favor of the characters at the movie's center.
center.
Zellweger runs with Ellen and adds some rough edges to her character. The audience sees Ellen as a lonely woman desperate for fatherly affection.
Despite her top billing, Streep takes a backseat as Kate, a super mom who plans elaborate holiday functions for the fun of it. But the gifted actress
allows us to glimpse the woman underneath, who lives for others but not for herself.
Hurt likely has the most challenging duty here, which is to make the audience care about an unsympathetic
character, and the Oscar-winner succeeds.
The film's narrative shifts gears in the final reel, resulting in a somewhat abrupt ending, and Franklin himself indulges in a tad of viewer manipulation. But thanks to the fine script, he's earned that privilege.
Tired plot causes jam in Rush Hour
By Jeremy M. Doherty
By Jeremy M. Doherty Kansan movie critic
Rush Hour plays out like a live-action example from a screenwriter's textbook.
Let's follow the signposts: Picture a movie in which Two Mismatched Cops join forces to kick criminal butt and trade wisecracks.
One of the pair (Chris Tucker) is the LAPD's Cop Who Plays By His Own Rules. His hard-nosed captain doesn't appreciate his Screwball Antics, Disregard for Proper Procedure or his Smart Mouth.
The other (Jackie Chan) is the Cop Who Operates By the Book. He also is
a Martial Arts Master, but his emotional investment in the current investigation leaves him Morally Compromised.
Enter the plot: Chan's buddy just happens to be a Powerful Foreign Emissary, whose daughter has just been kidnapped by a Maniacal Crime Lord, and the task falls to the Two Mismatched Cops to save the day.
Did we forget anything? Ah, explosions. I counted about three in *Rush Hour*. Of course, it goes without saying that the Mismatched Cops possess the ability to outrun said explosions.
And we mustn't leave out the Smooth-talking Englishman (The

Full Monty's Tom Wilkinson) or the interracial romance between Tucker and a female cop (Elizabeth Pena).
Ladies and gentlemen, start renting those Oscar tuxedos.
Fans of Jackie Chan's brand of cartoonish Bruce Lee moves probably should skip this offering. Some well-paced fight scenes do pop up, but only
sporadically.
Mostly, *Rush Hour* is a showcase for Chris Tucker, a comedian who subscribes to the notion that anything is funny if said loudly enough. His scenes with Chan tend to result in one-liners of the sweet and sour variety, with varying degrees of success. However, most of the humor comes at Tucker's expense.
Rush Hour would have worked better if director Brett Ratner had forsaken the tired cop-movie routines in favor of some simple interplay between Chan and Tucker. Action fans may get their fix, but the high is short-lived.
'Animals,' 'Idols' both have reason to sing
By T.R. Miller Kansan music critic
Marilyn Manson "Mechanical Animals"
★★★ and 1/2 out of ★★★
Marilyn Manson would like to have a talk with you about a frequently-explored subject in rock 'n' roll called drugs. Whether Manson feels drugs are bad is unclear. But one thing is for sure, everyone is doing it. The CD leaflet even is spotted with drug images such as needles, pills and, of course, pictures of the band members who look as if, well, they are on drugs.
The band's fourth release, "Mechanical Animals," is updated glamour rock with a touch of the extra-terrestrial. I was disappointed. I was expecting nightmares after listening to the CD, but no avail.
Many have seen the video to the first single, The Dope Show. Manson croons in his cackling voice, "The drugs they say/Make us feel so hollow." Is Manson offering a
I munk people are often so distracted by Manson's freakish persona that the music is ignored. This is unfortunate because only in the music does the band show some innovation. Two musical highlights are User Friendly and Fundamentally Loathsome. Both songs have a creepy, alien feel that left me with a strange fascination.
"Just Say No" speech or merely justify his own drug use?
The album has a touching moment in the final track, *Coma White*, where Manson tells the story of a lost girl drowning in a sea of pain and relentless, you guessed it, drug use. Could this ghoulish creature feel compassion? Perhaps, even love?
Ominous Seapods "Matinee Idols"
★★★ out of ★★★
** * out of **
In my opinion, an evil three-eyed creature carrying a helpless woman through space is not the most typical cover for a blues jam band. When I pulled this CD out of
my box, I was sincerely frightened.
But never fear, the melody rising from this album is completely harmless. The album begins with a two-minute building introduction that leads into a long guitar-strumming, bass-pulsing and drum-beating good time.
ing good Blackberry Brandy is a fun ditty with a sweet guitar solo that lasts, pretty much, most of the song. The strains of B.B. King can be heard in Dana Monteith's guitar.
The final track, *Leaving the Monopole* is not bad either, with a leg-slapping beat, backing a guitar and bass play-off.
But this endless jam seems really to be endless. I know this is what jam bands are supposed to do, but in the case of "Matinee Idols," there is no evolution throughout the songs. Take for example John Henry's Hammer, a nine-and-a-half minute song that starts out with a guitar riff that never changes. The thing about good jam bands is that while they are playing, a guitarist may change a chord or the bass

Ominous Seapods' unpredictability and spontaneity pretty much end with their album cover. The album is OK to stick in the stereo on a Saturday afternoon, but there is no sparkle in any of the songs, which, unfortunately, makes every track sound like the next.

FBI teaches strategy to KU police
Law enforcement agents learn new tactics at meeting
By Kelli Raybern
Kansan staff writer
All week long, police officers from the KU Public Safety Office have been learning from the FBI.
The Public Safety Office and the Lawrence Police Department have been holding a conference put on by the FBI for law-enforcement executives in the region.
The eighth annual Central States Law Enforcement Executives Development Seminar is aimed primarily at police chiefs and high-
ranking officers and has attracted police from as far as Wyoming, said Lt. Dave Cobb of the Lawrence Police Department.
The conference gives heads of smaller police departments the chance to receive quality training that might not be accessible to them otherwise.
"We try to cater to departments with 25 people and under," Cobb said. "We try to make it affordable and provide the best training possible."
The conference in Lawrence is a point of pride for both the KU Public Safety Office and the Lawrence Police Department.
"We take some pride in the fact that Lawrence has been dubbed one of the best programs in the past eight years," said Sgt. Troy
Mailen of the KU Public Safety Office. "We're continually building on that reputation."
Cobb said Lawrence's regional event was the best out of the 16 held around the country.
"We think it's really important for all departments to have a strong base in that," Cobb said.
Many people leading courses at the seminar are active or retired instructors from the FBI Academy in Quantico, Va. The first course in the seminar teaches ethics in law enforcement.
The program also includes courses about management principles, organizational excellence, labor relations, legal issues and media relations for law-enforcement executives.
Mailen attended the media-relations seminar and said it was interesting and educational.
Cobb said that the program had gone well so far and that it would wrap up with a graduation ceremony for participants tomorrow.
Major Chris Keary of the KU Public Safety Office will graduate from the program. Other KU officers have attended selected courses.
"It's been about how to respond and how to close the gap and the stereotyping between media and law enforcement," he said. "It gives us some good information on how to try to have a better working relationship with the media."
The program is holding a banquet tonight with guest speaker Terry Allen, Kansas football coach.
"He's going to come and pump them all up." Cobb said.
New Pap smear test detects accurately
By Sue Franke
Kansan staff writer
The University of Kansas Medical Center exclusively began using a new Pap smear test in May that is more accurate but also more expensive.
The Med Center is the only hospital in the Kansas City area to use the Thinprep Pap. So far, it has conducted about 700 tests.
The Thinprep Pap significantly reduces the possibility of an inaccurate test result, said Patricia Thomas, pathologist at the Med Center. She said it also detected lesions, defined as precancerous cells and changes on the cervix, that otherwise would not be picked up.
The Med Center charges $23 for the test — almost twice the amount of a standard Pap smear at the Med Center. As a result, many managed-care providers will not cover the cost. The labs associated with the Med Center, however, are covering the cost, said Joseph Hume, clinical associate professor in Obstetrics and Gynecology for the Med Center.
"We send specimens to other labs too, so only managed care programs that use KU labs cover the cost," he said. "Enough of the labs we use were going to pay for it, so we decided that it was worthwhile to shift to the Thinprep Pap smear."
Henry Buck, head of gynecology for Watkins Memorial Health Center, said that he did not use the test because of its cost. For patients at Watkins, he said it costs $15 to $20 more than a traditional Pap smear test,
which is $16.
He said he thought that this type of test eventually would be available from a number of different companies, which would bring the cost down.
The test uses a stick or spatula to obtain the cells and the entire spatula is put in a vial with a solution. A laboratory process separates the cells and places them in a single layer on a slide, Buck said.
"The end product is that it puts 50,000 cells on a slide in a monolayer, which is plenty to find abnormalities," he said. "In a traditional Pap smear, all the cells, including the ones you don't want to see, are smeared onto a slide. It obscures the cells you are looking for."
Another advantage of the Thinprep test is that physicians can retest the specimen so patients do not have to be recalled. Thomas said if a test was unsatisfactory, another slide could be made from the same specimen.
"In cases where results of the Thinprep show only atypical or inflammatory cells, we don't need to follow up those people," Hume said. "Those patients are spared the cost of additional office visits and tests."
The ultimate benefit of the Thinprep Pap test for women is greater peace of mind.
Abnormal Paps today usually are caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV), a family of viruses that causes genital warts and cell changes, Hume said.
Senate bill may make credit cards hard to get for students under 21
By Keith Burner
Kansan staff writer
University of Kansas students applying for credit cards on campus can get free T-shirts and candy but they also can rack up major debt.
But students under 21 may not have the freedom to get a credit card or to go into debt because of a credit card if a proposed Senate bill passes.
The bill, proposed by Sen Christopher Dodd of Connecticut, would restrict credit card marketing to people under 21.
The bill would require that the applicant either provide the signature of a parent or guardian willing to take financial responsibility or show proof of other financial means.
"I think that is absolutely ridiculous," said Julie Roger, Chicago junior. "Most people over 18 don't even see their parents very often."
According to a survey by U.S. Public Interest Research Group, college students who get cards from campus booths often end up with bigger unpaid balances and pay off their debts later than those who do not.
Credit-card companies such as Visa USA Inc. and MasterCard International have said that most students use credit
responsibly and appreciate getting the cards as a way to establish credit history.
Ed Mierzwinski, consumer program director for U.S. Public Interest Research Group, said students needed to be cautious about filling out applications at campus tables.
"Students, especially those who fill out credit card applications at campus tables in return for trinkets and candy, run the risk of falling into the campus credit-card trap," he said.
Students said they recognized the dangers of credit cards but that they did not consider the dangers a justification for taking a right away from them.
"Driving's dangerous, too, but I don't want them taking my license," said Alan Potter, Iola sophomore.
Roger said it was essential to to have a credit card to purchase airline tickets and other expensive items.
To David Bray, Lawrence senior, the bill presents more of a rights issue than a money issue.
"It's just another right that the bureaucracy is trying to force people to give up by living here," he said.

Listen carefully to a story of pride, education and heritage
Michael Yellow Bird, professor of social welfare, challenges racial stereotypes in his classroom discussions.
When Michael Yellow Bird tells the story of his life and his people, he does so in the metered narrative
✩ does so in the metered narrative manner of a storyteller. He makes frequent pauses, talks softly and never rushes.
The professor of social welfare at the University of Kansas says that he prefers to be called an Indigenous person because he is not an Indian — he is not from India
—and not a Native American—as anyone born in America is a native American.
Ifone is patient, does not interrupt and really listens, a theme begins to emerge. The theme is one of triumph over oppression, of joy in the face of hardship and of continuity despite dislocation.
This story has no beginning or ending, but the speaker starts by telling of the earthlodges and therefore, so does his story.
Earthlodges were the structures inhabited by the Sahnih people along the Missouri River in the area that is now North Dakota. Yellow Bird's father is Sahnih, and his mother is both Sahnih and Hidasata. He never lived in an earthlodge; the river bank his people occupied was flooded when the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers built the Garrison Dam. Nevertheless, the structure of the earthlodge is etched in his psyche. Earthlodges were built to provide shelter, but earthlodges were also symbolic of the ordering of the cosmos for his people.
The structure was supported by four poles. The four poles not only held up the dome but also were the framework for his people's spiritual beliefs: the four semicardinal directions. Each direction stands for certain characteristics of both the physical and spiritual world.
"The darker the skin, the more punishment. Some of the native teachers were the worst ones ... they were the product of their own abuse."

A
Although Yellow Bird, 43, never lived in an earthlodge, the poles symbolize where he grew up.
The Southeast Pole
This is the pole of spirituality, of new life. It is the sunrise. It represents all green and rooted plants. This pole is a reminder of Yellow Bird's earliest memories.
"As a child in my house, I heard my grandfather speaking and singing to my grandmother in our language, Sahnish," he says.
This is the pole that represents the ceremonies, the narrative stories of the elders and the traditions.
"It is all the things that were ethnically cleansed from my people," he says.
cleanser in our people's life It is the new spiritual life that he entered as a man when he participates in the sundance ceremonies. The sundance ceremonies are several days of fasting and dancing. They are private moments of personal revelation — private in that only he knows their contents but global in the way that they affect his life.
The Southwest Pole
This is the realm of the physical world, of all four-legged animals, of thunder that signals the coming of the rain, of water that is life and of all things that inhabit water. It is the pole of the physical body. Again Yellow Bird recalls the sundance ceremonies and the way his body experiences the dancing. It is like when he was a child and would run hard and fast on the Fort Berthold reservation, near White Shield, N.D.
It is the moments he would spend with his father, Willard or Wolf Trail, hunting and fishing.
"He would tell me about not violating the sanctity of the spirit — we believe that animals have spirits, that all that life is connected. This is why it is important not to waste and if you do, there are consequences," he says.
mayfly to the eagle. We believe the wind is a sacred power, and it carries a message with it," he says.
"This represents the wind and all nations that fly—from the
The world of airborne creatures kept Yellow Bird intrigued as a child.
The Northwest Pole
"I found a niche in the natural world." he says.
He learned to read very young and devoured all that he could find on the natural sciences. He dreamed of someday being an ornithologist, a
branch of zoology that studies birds.
branch of zoology that studies birds us.
But this would not be the path that his life would take. He remembers how he used to steal books from his brothers and sisters — 10 brothers and four sisters — before he was old enough to go to school.
"When I got there, it was a nightmare. It was all control and accept your position as a marginalized person" he says.
He remembers the children at the Bureau of Indian Affairs grade school being beaten with rulers and made to spend the whole day in the closet.
"The darker the skin, the more punishment," he recalls. "Some of the native teachers were the worst ones ... they were the product of their own abuse."
After his first year of college at the University of North Dakota, he was nominated to go to West Point during the Vietnam War but later declined the nomination, rejecting this stereotype.
"My people were farmers not warriors," he says.
While in college, he would return home and see the problems — the alcoholism, the abuse and the poverty — that plaged his reservation, he says. He knew that all these problems were related to his people losing their land, being displaced and forced to give up their culture and their way of life. Overwhelmed by their suffering, he took a hiatus from school.
During this time he, too, became aimless, he says, spending his nights drinking and running with his friends.
"I realized I was living in a manufactured world of the compressed," he says.
Slowly, he became aware that his calling was to change this world; his role was to act on behalf of his people. He choose to forge his interest of the natural sciences to pursue of career of social service.
"How could I become an ornithologist with so much to be done?" he asks.
He returned to school at the University of North Dakota to earn his associate's degree in education. After a brief time working at the United Tribes Education Technical Center in Bismarck, N.D., he was one of the teachers selected to attend the National Indian Education Association meeting — an honor later revoked when they learned he only had his associates degree. He resolved to never again let a lack of education stand in his way. In 1980, he graduated from the University of Wisconsin, earning a master's degree in social work. He returned to this University in 1986 for his doctorate, earning the degree in 1994.
The Northeast Pole
"This is the pole of Mother Corn. She is our Jesus," Yellow Bird says. "She teaches us how to live respectfully. She teaches us standards of ethics, humility, honesty and our relation to everything."
This is also the semi-cardinal direction of night, the time of dreams. It is the realm of the emotions.
While he was in graduate school, Yellow Bird suffered a severe case of depression and had to be hospitalized for 30 days. During this time, he became preoccupied with death. Every time that he would call home, his mother would tell him of another of his people who came to a violent end or who had taken their own life. Even in the hospital, death remained a tangible presence in his life; it was a specter he could not shake.
When he got home, his mother told him that he needed to see a medicine man. "Every pore of my being was open to the healing," Yellow Bird says.
Earthlodges were built for shelter, but they also serve as symbolism for the cosmos of the Sahnish people who dwelled along the Missouri River in what is now North Dakota. Contributed photo
The awareness came to him that he had been experiencing layers and layers of grief for the suffering of his people, for all the accumulated years of their oppression, for having been born into "a culture of inferiority" and for his own inability to alleviate their suffering.
Making a difference
"It was all the poles together that inspired me to become the person I am today," he says.
Today, he makes his daily contributions to his people by guiding them to opportunities that will help them fulfill their potential as human beings. Last year, he received a grant from the Office of Minority Health in Washington, D.C. to develop a curriculum that enables social workers to become better at providing aid to those living on reservations. Also, he helps administer the Equal Opportunity Fund at the University. The goal of the fund is to "produce native professional social workers to work with native populations."
Adam George, a student in Yellow Bird's diversity course, was a biology major before switching to social work in his fourth year. He says that Yellow Bird's class has challenged nearly all the beliefs that he had on race prior to taking the class.
"He's not afraid to tackle difficult issues," said George, Wichita senior. "He always takes the most subtle stereotypes and deconstructs them."
Yellow Bird also is making a difference through his own family. His wife, Pemina, is an activist for repatriation. For 12 years, she has worked to rescue the remains of their ancestors and other objects sacred to their culture. She organizes groups around this cause and lobbies politicians around the country. Together the two have raised their four sons: Jason, 23; Mike Jr., 19; Pete, 17 and Matt, 15.
He knows that his sons will face many hardships in their lives, but he hopes that they will find support and balance in the poles of the four semi-cardinal directions.

Commentary
Cross country runs challenging, intense road to finish line
An indescribable glaze sees over the eyes of a cross country runner before a race.
The eagle-eyed expression makes spectators shiver and happy that these people don't look so intense when they see them on the street.
Then, the starting pistol fires.
the runners take off, some falling to the
back of the pack,
others taking a quick lead but most huddling together trying to gain position among the glut of bodies.
FABRICIO NAVARRO
For a while, things are sane. The intensity of the competition is displayed in the tight jaws and straight posture of the runners. But within the first
Spencer Duncan
unousand meters, breathing becomes intense. The head begins to throb, keeping beat with the rhythm of the heart which beats faster and faster.
A thousand or so meters later, spectators notice the runner's jaws have loosened. Now, mouths hang open to make as much room as possible for air to enter. Postures have become crooked, and coaches begin to hope their runner's legs will stay strong and not turn to Jell-O.
The runner's harsh staccato breathing grows louder, and far away, people swear they can hear the collective gasp of air from a hundred runners.
A few thousand meters later, the runners no longer can speak. Their heart rate is uncharted and their breathing so intense that words become impossible.
Then comes the hill. There is always a hill. The hill will take someone. It always does. After running for thousands of meters, just when the runners think the end is near, the bill appears.
Their wobbly legs tense up in anticipation, and the hill is mounted.
Runners curl their toes, as if they can grab the hill and propel themselves to the top.
As they near the end, the runners look down and see that the hill has claimed a victim.
They try to yell out but have no voice. They point to runners behind them, hoping one of them can spread the word.
But the spent runner will have to wait for a medic.
The others can't worry about it. They have a race to finish.
The hill is tough, but most conquer it. As they break the crest of the climb, they smile.
The end is near
From a distance they can see coaches waving them on, students with video cameras, taping every stride so it can be studied later and spectators, hands over eyes to block out the sun, are searching for someone on they support.
People are yelling, cheering.
The runners hear noise, but not specific words. Instead, they hear a humming sound resembling voices of people they know.
As they cross the finish, the runners are yelled at by men ordering them to not stop after crossing but to continue so a human jam can be avoided.
Within feet of the finish, however, some runners collapse, unable to make it.
One runner, who before falling looked like a marionette puppet, legs going every direction, asks to be carried to the finish.
But a teammate's mother assures the exhausted athlete that a good race has been run.
Another runner, overtaken by the day's temperature, falls before crossing and is taken to an ambulance.
But most finish and recover at different rates. Some take only minutes to breath normally again. They then go for a cool-down run.
Others water the ground with saliva, and some nourish the ground with food that wants out of their stomachs.
Then they collect the awards and go home. This is a cross country meet. Intense people running around without being chased. Running for the thrill and challenge and excitement and competition.
It's unexplainable.

Kansas football urgently seeks win
Jayhawks football
By Jodi M. Smith
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas football team needs a win deserately
After dropping its first two games of the season, the Jayhawks are ready to walk off the field victorious for a change. And Illinois State is just the team to do it against.
"Kansas has taken two top 25 type programs and played them very well over the first two weeks," Illinois State coach Todd Berry said. "That tells me that they are very close to joining that elite group.
"I can imagine how badly they want to win, and they have even more incentive now after a couple frustrating losses to very good teams."
The Redbirds (1-0), an NCAA Division I-AA team, will travel to Lawrence tomorrow to face the Jayhawks (0-2) in a 6:30 p.m. kickoff at Memorial Stadium.
Although this will be the first time Kansas has faced the Redbirds, Illinois State is no stranger to coach Terry Allen.
While coaching at Northern Iowa, also a I-AA team, Allen faced the Redbirds all eight years.
"I'll tell you about Illinois State," Allen said. "That's an easy one for me to relate to. I've been in their shoes before on several occasions. It's not the most important game that they play, but it's probably the biggest."
For the Redbirds, playing a team they're not expected to beat allows them the chance to experiment with different things. Experimenting, however, hasn't been successful for them in the past.
Kansas hopes to make it eight.
Illinois State has lost their last seven games to I-A opponents.
To see the projected starting lineups for Saturday's game, see the graphic on page 108.
"We must win this game," place kicker Joe Garcia said. "We've come close the last two games, but we just couldn't finish those teams off. We've had two bad breaks, and our team basically fell apart."
Glenn, who has thrown 95 consecutive passes without an interception, was 19 of 29 passing last week for 236 yards and five touchdowns in their 47-3 win against St. Francis.
In order to finish off the Redbirds, Kansas must stop their quarterback, sophomore Kevin Glenn.
"Kevin Glenn is an exciting, young little quarterback," Allen said. "He doesn't get sacked very often, he can throw with four, sometimes five, wide receivers and get the ball off very quickly."
The Kansas defense is eager to face a pass-oriented offense.
"I like pass-rushing the quarterbacks," defensive end Jeremy Hanak said. "It will also help develop our secondary since we've been facing the run so much. Our secondary will now get experience against a passing team."
Experience is what the Jayhawks hope to gain through this game, but they also have another goal — eliminating mistakes.
"I think we've been our own worst enemy in the course of the first two games," Allen said. "I think we need to rectify that situation."
"I think the players are anxious to rectify that situation and will come ready to play."

Seniors ready for volleyball home opener

Kansan sportswriter
Setter Laura Rohde and outside hitters Motra Donovan and Leslie Purkeypile have led the Jayhawks to the second-best start in school history by winning seven of their first eight matches.
Tonight the seniors and the rest of the Jayhawks will attempt to demonstrate their skills in their home debut at Allen Field House. Kansas will face San Francisco at 7 p.m. tonight in the Hampton Inn Jayhawk Classic.
For the seniors on the Kansas volleyball team, this year is the one they want to remember.
It's an event they said they had been looking forward to since August.
"It's exciting because people are starting to see that we have the potential to be a winning team," Purkeyepile said. "We want our fans to see a winning team on the court, and that is something we are proud of."
Despite the disappointments of three consecutive losing seasons, including a 9-24 record last year, the Jayhawks wined the slate clean last August.
The team has a new coach whose reputation for winning incited glimmers of hope. And that hope eventually evolved into higher aspirations for this season.
The new volleyball center, scheduled to be ready for use in mid-October, made this season feel like a beginning. Besides, they had nowhere to go but up.
I will have a better feeling about Kansas volleyball because I was around this year," Rohde said. "I've been really happy with the way we've played. I'll probably have the best feeling when I look back on my senior year."
"Rohde is an emotional leader,"
Rohde, who was selected to the all-tournament teams at both of the Jayhawks' tournaments this year, said being a setter meant being a leader.
Coach Ray Bechard said it was a role Robhe was used to being placed.
"We want our fans to see a winning team on the court, and that is something we are proud of."
Beachard said his seniors each led the team in different ways.
Leslie Purkeypile senior volleyball player
In contrast to Rohde's zealous style, Bechard said that Donovan was more reserved and that Purkeyplel was somewhere in between.
"Purkey is serious one minute and happy-go-lucky the next," Bechard said. "She has the ability to ease the tension."
Bechard said. "She is vocal, and she is very competitive."
Donovan, who has collected 71 digs,
leads the team in digs per game. She
ranks sixth in all-time career kills with
908, including 61 this season.
"They feel good about what they have done," Bechard said. "The home opener may be more meaningful for them because this is their last year. I just want good things to happen for them."
The seniors just want one good thing to happen this weekend — they want to win their tournament.
"We've been around for four years, and we know what we have to do." Donovan said. "There is a different attitude on the floor this year. We know we can win."
"We really respect him," Rohde said. "We respect the information he gives us because we know he is very knowledgeable about volleyball. He presents his knowledge to us in a way so we can understand it and use it."
The seniors said that the difference from last year to this year was difficult to pinpoint but that the most significant distinction was their new coach.
The Jayhawks play at noon tomorrow against Eastern Michigan and then battle St. Louis University at 7 p.m.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Sept. 19)
This year, put down roots. By April, start whatever you need to learn next. May is good for romantic commitment, fixing up your house and buying real estate.Take the vacation of your dreams in October. Complete a big project in December so you can start a new one in January. Late January or early next February, get married.
Aries (March 21- April 19) - Today is a 7.
Group activities are favored, but don't let them interfere with a romantic commitment. Do not spend too much money on them, either.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) - Today is a 5.
You are sharp, but that does not mean you are unposed. There are powerful people who do not see eye to eye with you. You can convince them to see the wisdom of your ways, but it will take patience. Luckily, you have plenty.
Gemini (May 21 - June 21) • Today is an 8.
Your mind is full of dreams of faraway places. Do not be put off by the apparent impossibility of it all.
Instead, contact a foreign friend.Cancer (June 22-
July 221 - Today is a 6.
This is a good day to spend with friends, either in a social or a business setting. You will get tons accomplished, especially if you follow an outline and set a deadline. To improve your earning, try an unusual tactic or new technology.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) - Today is a 5.
Expect opposition every step of the way today. That is good. It will make you think harder and work out some of the bugs before you get any further into your project.
Virao (Aua. 23-Sept. 22) - Today is a 6.
Virgin (Aug. 29-Sept. 22) - Today is a U.
If you did not have so much work, you would love to take a long drive with a dear friend. Unfortunately, you are swamped. Responsibilities could keep you jumping until almost dark.

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21) - Today is a 6.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) - Today is an 8.
Romance looks good, but there are other things to occupy your mind. Financial hassles only will get worse if you do not deal with them. Your income taxes will not do themselves, so at least get the information to the CPA. After that is done, play.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21) - Today is a 6.
If you can get one other powerful person to go along with your ideas, you could win. To do that, be sure the person will make money. That is the kind of challenge you love. Speaking of love, it is best around dinnertime
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) - Today is an 8.
Give work your full attention that—is the only way you will make good on a promise. Read about a subject that interests you tonight. You will find the answer you are seeking if you are patient, and you will learn a lot.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) - Today is a 4.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) - Today is an 8.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jun. 19) *Today is a 4.* You may feel like buying something you can not afford. Do not abandon the idea, but do not go into debt. Contact a loved one to get a better price. Do not take a big risk, though — it's more likely to pay off for the other side.
Pisces (Feb, 19-March 20) - Today is a 6.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) - Today is an 8.
This is a good day to make a decision concerning your home, career or both. For example, you might enjoy working from your spare bedroom instead of driving to the office. Offer the boss a big savings and you may get to try it out.
Pixes (Feb. 19-March 20) - today is a 6.
It might be difficult to express your words with words.
Show your love through your deeds instead. That,
and one perfect rose, ought to melt a heart of ice.
Also, finish paperwork regarding health care or
taxes. It will be great to get that out of the way.

CLARIFICATION
Due to a news editor's error, the final line of Spencer Duncan's column on 3B yesterday was worded incorrectly. The published line read, "The Jayhawks are a bad team, but the Big 12 is maturing and Kansas needs to keep up." The line should have read, "It isn't that the Jayhawks are a bad team, but the Big 12 is maturing and Kansas needs to keep up."

BATON ROUGE, La. — Tailback Cecil "The Diesel" Collins was back in jail and off the McNeese State team today because he failed a court-ordered drug test.
Failed drug test lands LSU player back in jail
The test was part of Collins' release on bond after he was arrested for assaults on young women at an LSU student apartment complex.
He said that when the school accepted Collins in spite of off-field difficulties at LSU, he made it clear the school would not tolerate any misconduct.
State District Judge Tim Kelley sent the 21-year-old Collins to the East Baton Rouge Parish Jail on Wednesday, nearly tripped his bond from $55,000 to $150,000 and tightened the conditions on which he could be released.
"We refuse to compromise the integrity of our football team at McNeese," coach Bobby Keasler said.
Kelley had ordered Collins to take random drug tests as part of his conditions for being allowed to travel out of state for a Sept. 12 game against Northern Iowa.
"We tried to help Cecil. But perhaps he needs more help than we can give him," Keasler said.
Kelley said Collins, who enrolled at McNeese in Lake Charles after being kicked off the LSU team in June, failed the test Tuesday in Baton Rouge.

"Because of that, I found him to be in violation of the conditions of his previous bond," Kelley said. Unidentified sources quoted by the Lake Charles American Press call Collins denied using drugs.
Collins was booked in Baton
Rouge last June for aggravated battery and unauthorized entry of an inhabited dwelling and, in another incident, for simple battery.
In McNeese's first two games, Collins rushed for 117 yards and one touchdown as the Cowboys' backup tailback.
He played in all three games and part of a fourth game last season at LSU before a leg injury ended his season. Before his injury, Collins was the nation's leading rusher in Division I-A.

KU football searches for first victory
Despite losing its first two games of the season, the 1998 Kansas Jayhawks football team is headed in the right direction.
In coach Terry Allen's second season, the Jayhawks have jumped out to early leads against Oklahoma State and Missouri before losing both games in heartbreak fashion.
The offense, which ranked last in the nation in Division I total offense in 1997, has improved. The Jayhawks have accumulated an average of 299 yards a game and have improved from 112th in the nation last year to 82nd this year.
In addition to piling up more yardage this season, the Jayhawks also are putting more points on the board. After averaging a meager 16.1 points per game last year, the Jayhawks have scored an average of 25.5 points per game this season.
age of 20 points per game
The defense, however, has not been as successful.
After losing seven starters from last year's team, the Jayhawks' defense has struggled early this season. Kansas ranks last in the nation in rushing defense, giving up a whopping 315.5 yards per game and allowing an average of 39.5 points per game.
This year's team includes 43 letterman and 17 seniors but also possesses a youthful flavor. The roster includes 57 players from the freshman and sophomore class, including 14 redshirt freshmen.

Basketball recruit Collison to visit
Iowan to make last official trip, final decision
By Erin Thompson Kansan sportswriter
Recruit Nick Collison will arrive in Lawrence today to visit with the Kansas basketball team and soon will make a final decision about where he will play college basketball.
Collison, a 6-foot-9 forward from Iowa Falls High school, Iowa, is deciding between Kansas and Duke but arrives in Kansas with his parents, who are rooting for the Jayhawks.
"I'm ashamed to tell you we're pulling for Kansas," said Dave Collison, Nick's father and high school coach. "Everything about the program is a positive. Duke has a lot of the same things, but his mother and I see the distance as a negative."
Collison is ranked as the nation's fourth-best power forward in his class, according to Keith Cavanaugh of FastBreak Magazine. He said Collison had Raef LaFrentz-like talent.
The weekend of Sept. 4-7, Collison made one of his numerous unofficial visits to Lawrence. Last weekend, Collison visited Duke, where he said was impressed with the basketball program.
"Nick really enjoyed it. He had a chance to visit with the Duke players." Dave Collison said. "He was really fired up about Duke. But the initial shine has drifted away."
Collision had been ready to commit to Kansas at the end of the summer, but Duke became interested in him as well.
"Duke got heavily involved in recruiting him," Dave Collison said. "It complicated things, but Nick's still managed to remain pretty oblective."
Kansas coach Roy Williams and Duke coach Mike Kryzewski have in-home visits scheduled with Collison next week. He is expected to tell one of them he will play at their school.
The commitment Kansas received from Andrew Gooden, 6-foot 10 forward from El Cerrito High School, Calif., could affect Collison's decision.
"That was something Nick was a little unsure of," Dave Collison said. "But the Kansas coaches talked openly about it from the start. They told them all along they were interested in Gooden. But they envision them both playing and playing together at some point."
Duke already has received a commitment from Nick Horvath, a 6-foot-10 power forward from Arden Hills. Minn.
The coaches will try to arrange a phone conversation between Nick Collison and Andrew Gooden so they can talk and compare their expectations.
Collison will arrive in Lawrence by plane, and his parents will join him after driving from Iowa.
Team jumps in the lake this weekend
Swimmers to compete in nontraditional meet
By Sam Mollinger
Karen roadwriters
Kansan sportswriter
When the Kansas swim team travels to Carbon-dale, Ill., for their race against the Southern Illinois Salukis, it won't be for a traditional swim meet.
"In fact, it's the only one of its kind," coach Gary Kempf said.
Instead of swimming in an indoor pool with lanes clearly marked, the Jayhawks and Salukis will swim 3.1 miles in a Carbondale lake.
The unconventional exhibition is in its fifth year and is based on a mutual respect between the programs. Each school's swimmers are housed together, as are the coaches. Last year, the meet was held at Lone Star Lake, west of Lawrence.
Kempf, a supporter of outdoor training, estimates that the team does about 75 percent of its outdoor training at Lone Star.
"It takes the swimmers out of their comfort zone and teaches them to race a little better," he said.
There's also a boost in stamina.
"It really whips us into shape," said sophomore Amy Meyer, who finished second on the women's side of last year's race in a time of 58 minutes and 11 seconds. "When I get back in the pool after swimming outdoor, I feel a lot better."
Besides the increased distance — the longest race in an indoor meet is one mile — swimmers have to deal with the elements of a lake.
"You've got the waves, so you have to use a different technique," Meyer said.
Not to mention that there's no break-time.
"There's no resting period at all." Kempf said. "No bottom to stand on, your heart rate is always up. Some of them struggle with the environment, not being able to see the bottom."
The weak need not race.
"It takes a lot of will power." Meyer said. "You kind of have to get into a rhythm."
Meyer should know. Her ability in the outdoor races may earn her a spot on the national outdoor team. This summer, she'll race in the Senior Nationals, where a qualifying time will send her and the rest of the team to a race in Hawaii.
Soccer team hopes to end road woes in tournament
By Brad Hallier
Kansan sportswriter
The road has not been especially smooth for the Kansas women's soccer team so far this season.
They will try to end a three-game slump on the road this weekend at the Sheraton Four Seasons Tournament in Harrisonburg. Va.
At 5 p.m. today, the Jayhawks (2-3) battle the Arizona Wildcats (1-2-1). On Sunday, they will meet tournament host James Madison (2-2) or George Washington (0-5).
Defender Lindsey Loefler said that the road woes would end this weekend.
"We definitely can change," Loeffler said. "It all starts with the pregame in the hotel. It's been a different experience for the freshmen, but I think they are realizing what it's like on the road."
Midfielder Meghann Haven agreed.
"We've been too relaxed on the road," Haven said. "Giving up early goals brings the team down. We need to get on our opponents from the opening whistle."
Coach Dan Magner said that Arizona's sub-five hundred record was deceptive.
"Arizona has played a tough schedule," he said. "They have outshot most, if not all, their opponents, so it shows they are creating scoring opportunities."
The Jayhawks had been struggling to score in their first four games, but last Sunday they scored four times in a win against Central Missouri. The team has averaged only 1.4 goals a game.
Haven said she thought the lack of goals so far was attributed to the midfielders and forwards not working as a unit on offense.
"We need our whole team involved in the attack," she said. "There's been a big gap between forwards and midfielders, so both need to increase the work rate. We're not moving as a unit, with one midfielder up and one back. The team needs to improve transition."
Falling behind early in games is another problem for the Jayhawks. In four of its five games, Kansas conceded the first goal.
"We've spoken about it," Magner said.
"The intensity in training this week has been a response to that. Players now

understand when the opening whistle blows, we have to be all over the other team."
To increase his team's intensity before games, Magner said that he was going to shorten pregame warm-ups. He said that the team would do mainly four-on-four drills to simulate game action, and he thought that should increase its intensity.
The team also is changing by inserting midfielder Katie Lents into the starting lineup for the first time this season.
While the Jayhawks will not know who they will play Sunday until late Friday night, Magner said that he had knowledge of both possible opponents. Both James Madison and George Washington played No. 13 Virginia tough this season, each losing only by one goal.
"James Madison has been in the NCAA tournament for the last three years," he said. "I know (JamesMadison coach) Dave Lombardo personally, and he will have his team prepared and very well organized.
"George Washington has played an exceptionally strong schedule. Though they are 0-5, they have strong players, and I'm sure they will be a tough opponent."

Steelers' Stewart changes his style
The Associated Press
Here's some bad news for Jimmy Johnson and his Dolphins defense as they prepare to welcome the Pittsburgh Steelers. Kordell Stewart is ready to improvise.
After a meeting with coach Bill Cowher and Ray Sherman, the new offensive coordinator, Stewart is
ready to play the way he did when Chan Galley had Sherman's job. "I think I'm pretty much OK," said Stewart, ranked fourth from the bottom among NFL quarterbacks after two games. "You want to go 10-for-10 with 300 yards and two or three touchdowns, but it's not always going to happen that way."
NFL
If Pittsburgh scores, the Dolphins will call more often on Dan Marino, who has thrown just 50 passes in two games, about 30 fewer than normal.
Stewart's problems adjusting to Sherman's more conservative offense are probably the main reason the Steelers have stumbled at the start—if 2-0 can be considered a stumble.
Miami's defense has capitalized so far on the inexperience of Peyton Manning and Rob Johnson. But Stewart is more mobile and comparatively more experienced. He has 19 NFL starts compared to three for Johnson and two for Manning.
"Kordell's putting a lot of pressure on himself because he knows how much is expected of him," Sherman said. "All I want him to do is relax because he'll be fine."
Other NFL games
Detroit (0-2)
at Minnesota (2-0)
Are the Lions tossing in the season by replacing Scott Mitchell with rookie Charlie Batch at quarterback?
The way Mitchell was playing they weren't going anywhere, anyway. But even Batch didn't think he'd be put into this position so early.
"I think Charlie's ahead of his time," said Bobby Ross, who demoted Mitchell all the way to third string behind Frank Reich. "Frankly, that's why we're doing this."
Batch has one advantage, Barry Sanders, against a defense that
allowed 31 points in St. Louis last week. Another plus for Detroit: Not only will Randall Cunningham replace Brad Johnson at quarterback, but Cris Carter could be out, giving Randy Moss his first start as a pro.
Dallas (1-1) at New York Giants
(1-1) Monday night.
Jason Garrett starts for the Cowboys in place of Troy Alkman, who is out 4.8 weeks with a broken left shoulder. The Giants have 13 sacks in their two games.
Not to worry,
says owner
Jerry Jones,

TEXAS
Jones claims the Cowboys will win at half the games Alkman misses
The Giants have won three straight from the Cowboys, scoring 20 points in each. Their loss to the Raiders was their fifth in the last six games against AFC teams.
Denver (2-0) at Oakland (1-1)
The first road game for the Broncos and they may play without John
T
Elway, who might not decide until he steps on the field Sunday whether he'll test his sore hamstring.
The Raiders
hope for a repeat of last season, when Denver's first loss came at Oakland, 28-25 as Napoleon Kaufman ran for 227 yards. Kaufman had an 80-yard touchdown run last week against the Giants as Jon Gruden his first game as an NFL coach.
San Diego (2-0)
at Kansas City (1-1)
This is Ryan Leaf's first major test, against one of the NFL's toughest defenses in one of the NFL's loudest and most difficult venues — if he plays after being hospitalized during the week with a viral infection.
Kansas City actually outplayed the Jaguars from scrimmage in Jacksonville, even without Andre Rison and with Rich Gannon at quarterback for Elvis Grbac. But the Chiefs couldn't get the ball into the end zone until late and the special teams gave up two big plays that beat them.
Baltimore (1-1)
at Jacksonville (2-0)
The Ravens are likely to be a factor in the AFC Central. Their undersung defense stopped the Jets three times from the 1-yard-line last week and also produced a touchdown on an interception return by Rod Woodson.
The Jaguars, on the other hand, will be a factor in the AFC as a whole. Despite two wins, they're worried that running backs James Stewart and Fred Taylor have carried the offensive load rather than Mark Brunell and the passing game. That's a sign they don't have much to worry about.
Chicago (0-2)
at Tamna Bay (0-2)
Two teams whose 0-2 records are deceptive in the opener at the Bucs' new stadium.
The Bucs have lost at Minnesota and Green Bay, losses that would hardly be noticeable if they came, say, in Weeks 6 and 12. But their offense ranks 25th and a lot of what they did gain came at the end of games that got out of hand early.
The Bears, on the other hand, were supposed to get blown away by Jacksonville and Pittsburgh and lost instead by a total of six points. Curtis Enls, their rookie running back, hasn't started yet but has 174 yards and a 5-yard average.
Green Bay (2-0) at Cincinnati (1-1)
The Bengals, who have awful start this decade, were ecstatic to get the overtime win against Detroit in Week 2, the game that got Mitchell benched.
The Packers are tougher. Although they're without Dorsey Levens, Raymont Harris and Travis Jervie are good enough to share the load. Reggie White demonstrated he could play as well as talk with three sacks last week, and rookie Vonnie Holliday provides pressure on the other side.
Chapter III for Peyton Manning, who has six interceptions and a fumble in his first two NFL games. "He'll be all right," coach Jim Mora says. "A lot of it was just poor decisions by a rookie."
Indianapolis (0-2) at New York Jets (0-2)
ting more practice snaps this week and will be No. 2 after starting the season as the emergency No. 3.
Glenn Foley, the Jets' quarterback, has separated rib cartilage but likely will start. Vinny Testaverde is get
The Seahawks probably could win the NFC East, and get the 'Skins on a down note after beating Arizona and Philadelphia. Can things get any worse for the Redskins? Jeff Hostetler walked out, then returned after his request to be release wasn't granted. But he's still behind Trent Green and Gus Frerote this week.
Washington (0-2)
at Seattle (2-0)
Tennessee (1-1)
at New England (1-1)
The Oilers got a full home stadium for the first time in two years last week, then lost to Ryan Leaf and the Chargers 13-7. One problem: Eddie George has just 97 yards on 40 carries in two games, perhaps because guard Kevin Donnalley went to Miami in the offseason.
That may not improve against the Patriots, whose defense is carrying
them while Drew Bledsee learns the new offense installed by Ernie Zampese, his third offensive coordinator in three seasons.
St. Louis (0-2) at Buffalo (0-2)
Some Rams suggested after they nearly made up a 14-point deficit against the Vikings last week that they were worn out by Dick Vermell's tough practices.
Buffalo's problem is offense. Rob Johnson, who got a $25 million, five-year deal after starting just one NFL game in his previous three seasons, has been less than scintillating in the Bills' two losses.
Arguably the two worst teams in the NFL in this nationally televised Sundav night game.
Philadelphia (0-2)
at Arizona (0-2)
One reason is the two young quarterbacks, Arizona's Jake Plummer and Philadelphia's Bobby Hoying. Plummer, who Arizonaans thought was about to become the next Joe Montana, is last in the NFL in passing, and Hoying is sixth from the bottom. Both can blame bad offensive lines.
Cablevision offers Steinbrenner deal attempts monopoly
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — George Steinbrenner soon might be boss of three New York teams.
Steinbrenner has been talking to the broadcast company about a
The Yankees owner would gain operating control of the New York Knicks and New York Rangers under a deal in which he would sell the New York Yankees to Cablevision while still running the baseball team.
Yankees
deal since November when Cable vision offered $500 million for the Yankees. Talks intensified recently when Cable
vision chairman Charles Dolan substantially increased the price and offered control of the Knicks and Rangers as a sweetener, industry sources, speaking on condition they not be identified, told The Associated Press yesterday.
The New York Post reported the new offer could be worth as much as $650 million. But one source said Steinbrenner, who bought the Yankees for $10 million in 1973, would demand considerably more.
Cablevision's $486 million, 12-year deal to show Yankees games on the Madison Square Garden network expires after the 2000 season, and rights under a new deal could cost more than $100 million a year. Also, the Yankees are talking with the city about building a stadium that significantly could increase the team's revenues.
Dolan, who wants to prevent any competitor from using the Yankees to start a rival sports channel in New York, apparently is hoping the opportunity to run three of New York's most prestigious teams could be too enticing for
Steinbrenner to pass up.
Cablevision said in a statement: "We make special note that we have had no discussions to relinquish either the control or management responsibilities of Madison Square Garden and its teams, and we do not expect to have any such discussions in the future."
Steinbrenner refused to comment, and commissioner Bud Selig downplayed the reports.
"George and I talk a lot," Selig said. "I'm sure if he's got something to say to me, he'll say it."
The Yankees would be a more logical investment for Dolan, whose $500 million offer for the expansion Cleveland Brown fell $30 million short of Alfred Lerner's winning bid.
Acquiring the Yankees would represent a coup for Cablevision in its attempts to solidify a monopoly on New York sports programming. Cablevision owns the Knicks, Rangers and Madison Square Garden and has the rights to the Mets, Islanders, Devils and Nets telecasts on its Fox Sports New York channel.
Cablevision's interest in the Yankees is part of a trend in which major media and entertainment companies buy stakes in sports franchises to provide reliable programming.
Comcast Communications recently bought the Philadelphia 76ers and the Philadelphia Flyers. Time Warner owns stakes in the Atlanta Braves, Atlanta Hawks and the NHL expansion Atlanta Thrashers. The Walt Disney Co. owns the Anaheim Angels and Anaheim Mighty Ducks. Media mogul Tom Hicks recently bought the Texas Rangers and Dallas Stars. The Tribune Co. owns the Chicago Cubs, and Ascent Entertainment owns the Denver Nuggets and Colorado Avalanche.
Rupert Murdoch's BSkyB television has an agreement to buy Manchester United, England's most prestigious soccer team, for $1 billion.

Holyfield to defend title at home
The Associated Press
ATLANTA — Money talks, and this time money said, "Atlanta," to Evander Holvield.
"I've been able to make a lot of money and could afford to take a fight like this," the IBF-WBA heavyweight champion said about his match against Vaughn Bean in the champion's hometown. "But I'm glad the people showed up."
Atlanta mayor Bill Campbell proudly announced Wednesday that 24,000 tickets had been sold for the bout tomorrow night in the Georgia Dome. At that figure, Hollyfield would make about $5 million, including a reported $3.5
million guarantee from Showtime, which will televise the match.
Holyfield made $11 million and $35 million, respectively, for his victories against Mike Tyson and $20 million for his
JOHN DAYTON
eighth-round win against Michael Moorer last Nov. 8.
Holyfield: is expected to earn $5 million in next bout.
The reason for the fight is that Hollyfield must defend the title
against Bean, the IBF's No.1 contender, or have championship recognition withdrawn by that organization.
"It's best to follow the rules and regulations," said Hollyfield, adding that he plans to next make a WBA mandatory title defense against Henry Akinwande of Britain.
WBC champion Lennox Lewis of Britain will make a mandatory defense against Zelko Mavrovic of Croatia on Sept. 26 at the Mohaneh Sun Casino at Uncaspille, Conn.
"The people of Atlanta have spoken with their dollars because they love this guy," Campbell said. "Any time you see
Evander Holyfield's name on the tickets, you know you're going to see a fight.
Bean has a 32-1 record, but, with the exception of Michael Moorer, the quality of his opposition has been low. He has beaten only three men with winning records
The reason the fight is in Atlanta is because there was no interest in big fight towns like Las Vegas or Atlantic City, N.J., in holding it.

Oscar De La Hoya to fight old foe Chavez in Las Vegas
The Associated Press
LAS VEGAS — If Oscar De La Hoya and Julio Cesar Chavez ever decide to get out of the boxing game, they might have a future in the marketing business.
Both fighters have gone all out to get people to pay to see a fight not nearly as attractive as their first meeting two years ago for the junior Welterweight title.
"Pay-per-view, Pay-per-view," Chavez yelled repeatedly in interviews this week with Spanish language television stations.
A fight many see as a mismatch is nearing a sellout at the 18,000-seat UNLV campus arena, and pay-per-view sales are brisk.
De La Hoya is guaranteed $10 million and Chavez $6 million for the rematch, but both could make several million more with good pay-per-view sales.
De La Hoya said that Chavez's inability to admit his defeat after their last match angered him.
"He made up excuses after he lost." De La Hova said, "If he
was a real man, he would admit he lost. I'm not going to be satisfied if this fight goes to a decision. I want to knock him out."
De La Hoya is an 8-1 favorite to retain his World Boxing Council Welterweight title against the aging Chavez, who won world titles in four weight classes and is considered Mexico's greatest fighter.
De La Hoya stopped Chavez when they fought June 7, 1996, slicing cuts over his eyes in the first round, forcing the referee to stop the fight in the fourth round.
Two years later, the 25-year old De La Hoya is undefeated at 28-0, stronger and seemingly faster than when he beat Chavez at 140 pounds. Chavez, on the other hand, has looked mediocre at best in recent years and is coming off a third-round win against journeyman Ken Sigurani with a cut above his eye.
"I plan to make him look like
an amputee. Do I La Hoya said
Colorado's high altitudes to train for the match, showing he took the fight seriously.
Chavez (101-2-2, 84 knockouts) figures to be looking at his last big payday in a career that began 18 years ago in his hometown of Culiacan, Mexico. He traveled to
But De La Hoya dispatched France's Patrick Charpentier in the third round of his last fight, and there might be little for Chavez to do.
“It’s still a very, dangerous fight,” De La Hoya said. “He still has the power, the experience. If he lands a punch when I’m not prepared, he can drop me. He won’t knock me out, but he could drop me.”
Chavez will have to get inside the longer reach of De La Hoya. In his prime, Chavez' style included slamming left hooks into his opponent's ribs until he wore him down.
"This time, you're going to see the warrior Chavez," Chavez said.
Veteran trainer Gil Clancy, who has advised De La Hoya for his last few fights, does not see Chavez winning the fight.
"The fight will last only as long as Oscar wants it to last." Clancy said. "Oscar's gotten a lot better since the first time they met. There's no way Chavez has gotten better."

Clinton's lawyers keep fighting release of taped testimony
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Democrats on the House Judiciary Committee mounted a final, furious attempt yesterday to delay the release of President Clinton's videotaped grand jury testimony. Meanwhile, Republicans demanded an FBI inquiry into an alleged attempt to intimidate the panel's chairman.
Republicans promised to distribute Clinton's testimony as early as today. TV outlets already were making plans to air the four-hour tape said to contain images of a defiant, angry and evasive president as he was asked explicit questions by Kenneth Starr's prosecutors last month.
The committee met as the political fallout continued in the House about an article detailing an extramarital affair by the committee's
chairman, Rep, Henry Hyde, more than thirty years ago.
Republicans were furious, and Democrats expressed anger as well, for the article about the 74-year-old impeachment panel chairman who
as a reputation for honesty and integrity.
"Allies of the president are now dishing dirt on the most respected member of the House," said Republican Whip Tom DeLay of Texas. "This is a direct assault on the United States"
Clinton: Could be embarrassed if the tape is released.
Speaker Newt Gingrich called on FBI Director Louis Freeh to investigate whether anyone in the White House had tried to undermine the constitutional work of the Judiciary Committee.
House of Representatives."
Republicans angrily charged that White House aides or allies had helped Salon Magazine develop the story to wound Clinton's critics. Salon said it did not get the story from the White House.
Democrats expressed outrage about the Hydte story.
"The level of discourse in this country is falling to a depth that cannot be sustained," said Rep. Martin Frost of Texas, chairman of the Democratic campaign committee.
Apart from the tape, Judiciary Committee members were debating how much of an additional 2,000 pages of evidence to release to the public.
Clinton's attorney, David Kendall,
issued a statement saying that Starr
earlier had refused a request to
destroy the tape after it was viewed
by an absent grand juror. The only
purpose for preserving it, the lawyer
said was to ensure its public release
and embarrass the president.
Starr submitted 18 boxes of evidence to Congress earlier this month and said he had found evidence of potentially impeachable offenses in 11 separate instances.

In a complaint filed last month in U.S. District Court, the government alleged that bin Laden directed the attack on the embassy in Nairobi as part of an ongoing, anti-American terrorism campaign. The complaint said al-Qaida sought to change U.S. foreign policy by killing U.S. civilians and military personnel worldwide.

Running back ready to start for 'Huskers
The Associated Press
LINCOLN, Neb. — If it's up to DeAngelo Evans, the often-injured sophomore running back will be on the field when Nebraska plays Washington one week from Saturday — for sure.
gray area. Either I'll play a lot or not at all."
"If I play, I don't foresee myself being out there for just a couple of minutes," said Evans, who returned to practice earlier this week. "To me, there's noiller I'll play a
Huskers
Right now, it looks as if Evans is on track to return, but the decision rests with trainers and coaches. Evans is recuperating from a procedure last month to repair torn cartilage in his left knee.
Last season, a recurring
abdominal injury kept Evans on the sidelines for 16 months. In fact, he hasn't taken a snap in a game since Nebraska lost to Texas in the 1996 Big 12 championship game.
At 5-foot-9 and 210 pounds, Evans is built like a fireplug. He said he is eager to get off the sidelines and stay out of the training room.
"I'm sick of it. I'm ready to come back," he said. "I'm tired of my teammates welcoming me back. It feels good, but after the second or third time, you get sick of it. I'am sick of everything that goes with being hurt."
Nebraska coach Frank Solich said the prognosis for Evans was good.
"The signs are that, right now, he feels fine, and he appears to be over the injury." Solich said.
That is good news for the No. 3 Cornhuskers (3-0). As a freshman, Evans gained 776 yards. In April, he had 93 yards in the spring game. His promising fall camp ended just before the Aug. 29 opener against Louisiana Tech.
In Evans' absence, Correll Buckhalter has been the leading running back with 103.3 yards per game. Nebraska still is averaging 259.7 yards per game, good for 10th nationally.
Evans has been one of several injured starters this fall. Quarterback Bobby Newcomb (knee), safety Clint Finley (knee) and defensive tackle Jason Wiltz (ankle) also should be back for the Washington game Sept. 26.
With so many starters out, the 'Huskers have struggled at times during their first three games. For his part, Evans said he was confident there would be improvements when he and others return.
"We haven't looked as crisp as we usually do at this point in the season," he said. "A lot of that is because of injuries. Once you've been injured, you want to come back and help the team any way you can."

Anti-abortion protest stirs controversy on Daisy Hill
Display becomes violent after students see photos
By Chad Bettes and Michael T. Rigg
Kansan staff writers
One University of Kansas student was arrested last night on Daisy Hill after an anti-abortion display became violent, the KU Public Safety Office said.
The Center for Bio-Ethical Reform dis played 14 6-foot tall picture murals that compared abortion to the Holocaust and slavery.
The photographs were of aborted fetuses, lynchings and concentration camps with red swastikas on the black-and-white background.
About 6:38 p.m., a student drove a car onto the grass across the street from Hashinger Hall, Major Chris Keary said.
No center worker was struck or injured and the student was arrested for aggravated assault. Keary said.
About 6:42 p.m., a group of men tipped over one of the display signs near the entrance to the Templin Hall lot. One man was punched and another man was grabbed, Keary said. No arrests were made, but both men filed
complaints of battery. The incident report will be forwarded to the city prosecutor.
Keary said officers already were on the scene, as they would be with any controversial demonstrations.
Abuld-Kareem Ali, Atlanta sophomore, said he gathered a group of students to protest the exhibitions, which he said were racist.
"We were just protesting in the same way he are," he said.
Greg Harrington, an organizer of the display, was not surprised by the incident and said he expected people to deal with it in a mature way.
The center plans to have the exhibit, which it calls the Genocide Awareness Project, on campus throughout the week.
Harrington, University officials and representatives of the KU Legal Society, which sponsored the display, will meet this afternoon to discuss the safety of the event.
"We want to do this in a way that sets public safety as a priority, but, at the same time, we want to get the idea out that the University is a workplace of ideas," Harrington said.
David Lee, director of operations for the Center for Bio-Ethical Reform, said the comparison of the Holocaust and slavery to abortion was valid because in each case the victimized group was classified as less than human.
Jayhawker Campus Ministry also sponsored the exhibit.
"We want to do this in a way that sets public safety as a priority, but, at the same time, we want to get the idea out that the University is a workplace of ideas."
Greg Harrington display organizer
Sarah Page, president of the Pro-Choice Coalition and Prairie Village senior, said her organization was not involved with the violence.
"Violence towards other people is not something that Pro-Choice Coalition condones," she said. "We encourage peaceful demonstrations."
The display will move around campus this week, stopping at Wescoe and Strong halls today. The center's activities will include a public debate and forum at 7 p.m. Thursday in Budig Hall.
Multicultural student group may form
by Carolyn Mollett Kansan staff writer
Minority group leaders discuss joining as a result of Rock Chalk Revue skit
A coalition of diverse students may form as a result of the controversy surrounding last spring's Rock Chalk Revue.
First Nations Student Association, formerly known as Native American Student Association protested a Rock Chalk skit, "Don't Drink the Water," that it said portrayed indigenous peoples as primitive.
This year, Raven Heavy Runner president of FNSA, said he hoped to produce something positive from the negative Rock Chalk experience with a Multicultural Student Coalition.
The idea of a Multicultural Student Coalition is to bring students of varying cultures together for positive interaction. Heavy Runner said the association was thankful to Black Student Union for its support throughout the Rock Chalk ordeal.
After last spring's protests, a Multicultural Race Forum convened, involving KU diverse student organizations and people from the Lawrence community.
Heavy Runner spent the last few weeks speaking with diverse student groups about forming a coalition this fall.
"But why not get together for positive things?" Heavy Runner asked.
Individually, the groups have a
small voice, said Tanisha Jones,
BSU senator. "As a whole, we can be powerful and encourage change."
Nellie Kim, president of Asian American Student Association, said the coalition was a great way for students to break out of their own circles.
Those at the meeting did not determine whether a coalition would become an official campus organization.
Heavy Runner brought up six reasons why a coalition would be beneficial. First, he said the University had never had a long-standing diverse coalition.
representatives from FNSA, Hispanic American Leadership Organization and Queers and Allies met last week to discuss the formation of a Multicultural Coalition.
Heavy Runner also said diverse student groups lacked visibility on campus, the greater KU community didn't understand diverse students' issues and there was a lack of
NEXT MEETING
The next meeting to discuss forming the Multicultural Student Coalition will be 7 p.m. tonight in the Multicultural Resource Center.
understanding between groups within the diverse community.
The representatives determined that any multicultural coalition would be open to under-represented students and their supporters. They didn't want to exclude any students.
"I would rather this be an organization of ideas than a politics of identities," said Christine Robinson, member of Queers and Allies and Gay and Lesbian Academic and Staff Advocates.

Near-sellout crowd greets Loveline hosts
Q&A
with Adam and Dr. Drew
■ Why are breasts so cool to most men?
Adam: Guys like breasts because they don't have them. I wanted breasts so bad as a kid, and I never got them. And especially large ones — it's an extra 20 pounds, so for men, that's an extra 20 pounds of manliness.
■ I'm 18, and I'm having inhibitions about losing my virginity. Is it because it's fed into our minds that sex before marriage is bad, or is it just me?
Dr. Drrew: You're trying to make a value decision in your life. Foremost, you need to concentrate on your commitment to the other person. The stronger a bond you form, the more intimate an experience it is.
Adam: Just do it!
■ Why are men so afraid of assertive, self-confident women? I'm very opinionated and self-assured, and it seems to scare men off. Adam: I'm too frightened to answer that. Drew: Dr. Drew: You need to look at the reasons we are so intimidated by you. People generally aren't afraid of assertive people unless there's an agenda.
OK, myth or fact. Does the infamous G-spot exist in lady?
Dr. Drew: 'It's in the tissue behind the clitoris, and it's in different places for different people.'
When stimulated, it can be an intense experience for some. For others, it's more subtle.
Dr. Drew: What women are wanting is a person to be fully present. They want a man who's not passive. They want to be cared for and nurtured. When you ask her to participate in planning, you're asking her to be fully present.
I've been out on a few dates with a woman, and when I ask her, 'What do you want to do?', she says, 'Oh, I don't care,' or 'What-ever you want to do.'
There's this guy who've I've been putting off sexually for five months. We live in separate towns, and last weekend we had sex. I haven't heard from him since. Did I scare him off, or does he feel he's conquered something? Dr. Draw. This proves something about men — Adam: They're stupid! Guys, you have to follow up after you've had sex. Or maybe he's still on his victory tour.
Adam: You see, that's the problem with women. You're quiet the first month of the relationship when we want you to have an opinion. Then after that, there's too much assertion. Then you have someone who bitches and complains all the time.
Dr. Drew: Why don't you call him?
Adam: No, he should know to call her
■ What are the effects of sexual performance in men after drinking alcohol?
in their inter and learn to
Dr. Drew: Any form of alcohol inhibits sexual
performance and could cause sexual dysfunction,
so it's best not to mix the two.
Adam: Basically, you drink too much, you throw up and you have a flaccid penis.

duction, and advertising.
Dr. Drew Pinsky and Adam Carolla, the hosts of MTV's Loveline, fielded questions about sex, drugs and relationships from a near-sellout crowd Friday night at the Lied Center.
Lindsey Gaston, special events coordinator for Student Union Activities, said that the money lost only would come out of production costs, such as the Lied Center rental fee, sound and lights pro-
"We broke even on the talent fee, which was $18,500." Gaston said. "We had a crowd of about 1,850 people, so I'm just ecstatic over how well the event went."
Students paid $10 per ticket and non-students paid $14. The Lied Center seats about 2,000 people.
Gaston said *Loveline* cost SUA about $20,000. He said he wouldn't know the

Tropical Storm Hermine causing evacuations
GRAND ISLE, La. — There wasn't much left to be packed Saturday when Grand Isle's 1,500 residents were ordered to head for the mainland because of approaching tropical storm Hermine. It was their third storm evacuation in as many weeks.
Along with Mayor David Carmadelle's evacuation order for Grand Isle, about 600 residents of two low-lying parts of Lafourche Parish were ordered out after Hermine grew from a tropical depression during the morning.
Terrebonne Parish also issued a voluntary evacuation order in the late afternoon for low-lying areas.
By 11 p.m. EDT Saturday, the eye of Hermine passed over Cocodrie about about 70 miles southwest of New Orleans. Meteorologists predicted the storm's center would be over New Orleans at about 8 a.m. EDT.
Tropical storm watches for the weakened system were discontinued west of Intracoastal City. The National Weather Service expected Hermine to be downgraded to a tropical depression.
Hurricane may cause most damage in years
ST. JOHN'S, Antigua — Hurricane Georges began lashing the eastern islands of the Caribbean yesterday, forcing families to huddie in basements and businesses to pile sandbags in front of their entrances.
Government officials throughout the region warned that Georges could cause the worst damage in decades.
winds were gusting to 50 mph in Antigua by the early afternoon, with forecasters predicting the arrival of the hurricane's full 135-mph fury by yesterday evening.
The eye of Georges was expected to pass over the small, eastern Caribbean islands later yesterday before moving on to the U.S. and British Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico today, according to the National Hurricane Center in Miami.
Georges strengthened Saturday to a category-4 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson scale — comparable to Hurricane Andrew, which devastated parts of southern Florida in 1992, or Hurricane Hugo, which caused severe damage in the Caribbean in 1989.
Storm-whipped waters cause ferry to sink
MANILA, Philippines — A ferry that sank with 454 people on board was carrying heavy cargo that may have shifted in high waves, causing the ship
to tilt and sink, the chief investigator said Sunday.
Seventeen more people were rescued Sunday after spending more than a day in chilly, storm-whipped waters, bringing the number of survivors to at least 311, officials said. At least 39 people were dead.
Rough weather continued to hamper rescue operations. A navy ship was forced to turn back yesterday before reaching the accident area because of powerful waves.
The Princess of the Orient sank during a tropical storm Friday night. Maritime officials said several other ships had also reported difficulties during the storm, and passengers in other boats had been injured.
the company said there were 352 passengers and 102 crew aboard, revising earlier figures to account for people not listed in the manifest, the coast guard said. No foreigners were reported on board.
United States, Japan to look at missile defense
NEW YORK — Concerned about North Korea's ballistic-missile development, the United States and Japan agreed yesterday to conduct joint research on
a missile-defense system that could protect the island nation from attack.
"No one should doubt our commitment to defend our interests and to work together for peace and stability in Asia," Defense Secretary William Cohen said at a joint news conference with Secretary of State Madeleine Albright and their Japanese counterparts. "And this is the best way to protect both the United States and Japan."
A. M. R. R. R. R. R. R. R. R. R. R. R. R. R. R. R. R. R. R. R. R. R. R. R. R. R. R. R. R. R. R. R. R. R. R. R. R. R. R. R. R. R. R. R. R. R. R. R. R. R. R. R.
Cohen: United States committed to helping Japan.
The United States has 100,000 troops in the region, about one-third of them guarding the always-tense demilitarized zone between North and South Korea.
Yesterday's agreement comes after North Korea launched a rocket over Japan on Aug. 31 in a failed attempt to send a satellite into orbit. It was the latest example of Pyongyang's aggressive program to develop long-range missiles that could one day hit American shores, U.S. officials said.

Susan Barrantes, 61, was killed instantly Saturday night when the Land Rover she was driving in a collision with a van on a rural road near Tres Lomas, about 310 miles southwest of the capital. Buenos Aires, police said.
Barrantes was decapitated in the crash, Tres Lomas Police Commissioner Hector Dimas Moleneuvo told The Associated Press in Buenos Aires.

The driver of the other car, Jose Maria Rodriguez, suffered a broken ankle, police said
Avalanche devastates small Mexican town
VALDIVIA, Mexico — The small town on Mexico's Pacific Coast is no more. It was buried under tons of mud, rocks and fallen trees brought by torential floods earlier this month that devastated much of southern Chiapas state.
Several hundred survivors in the community of 7,000 people say as many as 200 bodies may be buried under the avalanche that rolled off mountain-sides down the Novillero River and into the lowlands.
Many more were injured and missing — perhaps swept out to sea. No official death toll has been given and Valdivia was still largely isolated Saturday.
After days of rain, the slide began in the early morning of Sept. 8, said survivor Alejandra Domiguez.
A KU employee's 1993 Lincoln Continental was stolen Tuesday morning from the 1300 block of New Hampshire Street, but was recovered later that day by Lawrence police when they arrested the Lawrence youth who had stolen it, Lawrence police said. The car was valued at $11,000

Continued from page 1A
Gaston said that planning an event like Loveline was risky because of the possibility of failure, but he was concerned more with providing the students what they wanted.
"When Dr. Drew and Adam came out, the energy was just there," he said. "It's a great example of how SUA works. We did exactly what we wanted to do, and it's quite obvious that we appealed to the masses."
Students attending the show said they agreed that Dr. Drew and Adam relaxed the crowd by breaking the ice early.
"They were really matter-of-fact, and I think it's better to be straightforward about topics like this," said Katie Hackett, Oklahoma City freshman.
Amy Duffer, Lawrence freshman, said she doubted that the crowd would have been a near sellout if the speaker were a political or authoritative figure.
"If we bring informative speakers, yeah, they'll teach us something, but they'll bore us," Duffer said. "I wouldn't come if it were an authoritative figure speaking, not on a Friday night."
The crowd of students greeted the MTV celebrities with a round of applause when they took the stage. Carolla addressed the crowd in his introduction.
direction.
"I never went to college," Carolla said. "I see you out there — you're drunk, you're stoned and you're having sex — I'm envious."
Carolla addressed the issue of Loveline being informative versus entertaining and said that the show had high viewer ratings because it had both.
"We use information as a form of entertainment," Carola said. "You could watch Jeopardy!"
and you learn a few state capitals and you watch some guy with a bad toupee jump up and down."
Carolla said that the campuses that he and Dr. Drew traveled to were similar because all college students had the same problems.
"I've been amazed that over and over, in front of God and their peers and everyone, young people get up and ask the same damn questions," Carolla said.
Dr. Drew and Carolla said they found patterns in the questions that young people ask that allowed him to assess their situation in a matter of minutes.
"People are animals, like any other animal on the planet," Carolla said. "If you want to know the traits of polar bears, you study about a hundred of them. You see how they mate and migrate. If you want to study humans, you just need a certain percentage of them. Everyone likes to think they're individual, but we all operate under the same rules emotionally."
Local organizations compete for blood
Kansan staff writer
By Sue Franke
Depending on which organization students give blood to, their donations may or may not help friends and family in Douglas County.
Kansas Blood Services, conducting a drive today through Thursday at Allen Field House, supplies blood to Lawrence Memorial Hospital. The organization serves 10 counties in northeast Kansas.
American Red Cross Blood Services, which also seeks donors on the University of Kansas campus, sends its blood donations outside the Douglas County area. It will have a blood drive on the KU campus from Oct. 5 to 9.
"We support the collection of blood and give it wherever it is needed the most," said Michelle Jantz, executive director of the Douglas County American Red Cross Blood Services. "I hear a lot about blood not staying in Douglas County, so I ask people, 'Are all your friends and family located in Douglas County or do they live in other areas where the blood we provide could save their lives?'"
She said that competition for donors is a relatively political issue and one that American Red Cross Blood Services tries to avoid.
"We do need donors," she said. "The bottom line is that even if people go to another organization to donate, we want people to give blood."
Adriane Evans, director of community relations and recruitment for Kansas Blood Services, said she hoped that the competition for donors never got to the point of turning people
BLOOD DRIVE INFORMATION
Cindy Schmidteler, recruitment and marketing specialist for Kansas Blood Services, said students donating blood today through Thursday needed to meet the following criteria:
Be weigh a minimum of 110 pounds
Be in general good health
Eat a meal six hours before donating blood Drink plenty of fluids before and after donating blood
- Not have received a tattoo within the past year Donors are asked a series of questions about current medications they might be taking, lifestyle and general health. Schmideler said students stopping by Allen Field House this week should allow 45 minutes to an hour for the process. One unit of blood will be taken.
"People have a choice of who to give blood to, but they need to be aware of whether their donations are going to their friends, families and co-workers in Lawrence," Evans said. "We have been the sole blood supplier in Douglas County since 1991."
"The average person has 10 pints of blood, so we're not taking enough to harm someone in good health," she said.
Kansas Blood Services just became part of a larger nonprofit blood center. The Community Blood Center of Greater Kansas City
off and causing them to stop donating. So far, she said, her organization has met the needs of Douglas County and the surrounding areas.
announced Friday that it acquired the assets of Kansas Blood Services, which will maintain its collection sites in Topeka and Lawrence.
Both Kansas Blood Services and the American Red Cross Blood Services rely solely on donations.
Tracey McCalley, Mission Viejo, Calif., senior, is volunteering at the blood drive this week and said she would be giving blood for the first time.
"I've always wanted to give blood but I have been a swimmer and couldn't donate blood while in training," she said. "I think donating says a lot about a person — you're definitely doing it to help someone or save someone's life."
Jantz said that the American Red Cross did not sell blood for profit but that American Red Cross Blood Services attracted more donors when it provides incentives, such as free T-shirts.
Kansas Blood Services will be giving away movie passes from Hollywood Theaters, 3433 Iowa, to students giving blood this week. Evans said if people received money for donations, the blood given may not be safe for its recipients.
A time exists between a small incentive and payment for a donation, Jantz said. Incentives for blood donations are regulated by the Federal Drug Administration.
"When financial gain is involved, people might be less than honest," she said. "For example, a person may not be truthful as to whether it's really been a year since he or she had received a tattoo."
Evans said that only 5 percent of the United States' population donated blood each year.

Students without valid bus passes getting free ride at other's expense
Though it's easy to blame Cybermark and the University of Kansas for the recent busing flasco, some students are making the situation even worse.
even worse. Last week, Cybermark announced it would distribute new bus passes to all current pass holders, replacing the problematic microchip reading system which was too slow and hindering students and bus drivers Now, all a rider needs to board the bus is a current KUID.
Unfortunately, many students who did not purchase bus passes have taken advantage of the situation. Because there is no proof that one has a pass, every single KU student now can ride the bus at the expense
If students did not pay for their ride, they should not get on the bus.
of those who actually bought a pass. Although this problem is a temporary one — new passes should arrive soon — it is substantial.
It's easy to consider this a victimless crime. But to about 7,000 students who bought bus passes, it's not.
Considering the University enrolls more than 20,000 students, almost twice as many students that have passes now have access to the buses.

For example, when 10 people who
Pass holders have the right to be angry with those who unfairly ride the bus. Pass holders' $60 pays for a semester's worth of rides; if they miss out on a couple because others took advantage of an unfair situation, those who paid are losing money.
To those without passes: Until the new passes arrive, do the kind thing and don't deprive your fellow students of a helpful and sometimes necessary mode of transportation.

Parking spots scarce at Nunemaker
A lack of parking spaces is one of the biggest problems for the University of Kansas, and students, faculty and staff at Nunemaker Hall are well aware of it.
As many as 150 students attend classes in Nunemaker Hall on any given day during the week. Street parking is prohibited, and the residence hall parking lots are restricted 24 hours a day to those with resident permits.
Not only are students with daytime classes out of luck, but also those with evening classes are forced to brave the campus alone at night on the long trek home because for most students, Nunemaker Hall is anything but centrally located. The Templin Hall lot across the street has a few visitor meters, but the meters usually are occupied and do not have the capacity to provide space for the number of students in even one class.
And how much time are students
Classes at Nunemaker, which is located on Daisy Hill, are not easily accessible to students.
willing to spend to get to class?
willing to spend a lot of time with the meager nine-car faculty and staff lot attached to Nunemaker Hall is full by 8 a.m. Later this semester, the university admissions office and visitors center will move to Templin, inevitably increasing traffic and restricting space.
ing that the student gets out of class on time, the odds of making it to class on time are slim.
Students with back-to-back classes at Frasier Hall and Nunemaker Hall don't have too many options. They could choose to walk, which assures their tardiness because even fast walking takes a good 12 to 15 minutes.
The University should either allocate space for Nunemaker Hall students in the new Jayhawk Tower lot east of Nunemaker Hall or create a small lot next to the building, where there seems to be ample space. The University could issue permits to students with classes in Nunemaker Hall on a semester basis.
Or they could attempt to catch a bus en route to McCollum Hall and then walk to Nunemaker Hall. Even assum-
There seems to be no explanation why there is not a student lot at Nunemaker Hall or even why the honors program is so removed from central campus with the exception that it is an available building. Barbara Schowen, director of the honors program, said she had been thinking about the problem for years and had sent a couple memos to the University parking board but to no avail.

Religious disputes not in spirit of their faith
The conflict between Protestants and Catholics in Northern Ireland is troubling. More troubling still is what is done to remind the Catholics that they were deformed by the Protestants

deleted by the Protestant 300 years ago. During this year's Orange Order march, for instance, three brothers were burned alive by Protestants in a supposedly Catholic house. The parents of these children, it turned out, were a Catholic and Protestant couple, married despite the animosity between their two groups, raising their children simply as Christians, and thus doing their humble part in healing the Catholic-Protestant divide.
onc-Protestant divide.
Despite this couple's courage and the sacrifice of these young souls, the Church of Christ in Northern Ireland and in many other parts of the world remains divided, mainly between Catholics and Protestants, each side claiming to be the true heir to the legacy of Christ
before the controversy about Mary and the other saints, the fundamental issue of dispute seems to be about the afterlife. Protestants claim that Catholics are not really Christians and therefore would not go to heaven if they died as Catholics. Catholics, on the other hand, claim that they are the true Christians and therefore have the assurance of eternity in heaven, after a short passage through purgatory maybe. These contradictory claims have made my brother in New York ask me, "Into which heaven do you feel God placed the souls of those three half Catholic, half Protestant Irish boys? Into a Catholic heaven? A Protestant heaven?"
In the 16th century, we had the Reformation and the Counter-Reformation. The Reformation gave us the Protestant churches, and the Counter-Reformation produced the Jesuits. A lot of good has come from these two movements. However, I think that as we prepare to enter a new century and a new millennium, we are due for a true reform. We need to seriously revise Christianity and make it relevant to the new era.

Like those unfortunate Irish brothers, I also have had my own experience with the Catholic vs. Protestant madness, with the only difference that, thanks to God knows what, I am still alive. When I was born in the Congo, my father's family was Catholic and my mother's family was Protestant. I still wonder how my parents got married in the first place, but I no longer wonder about what happened after my birth.
haps worse than being burned alive. I continued to be a Catholic though, and the Jesuit fathers taught me many things. The best thing I learned from them was, probably, the value of an open mind, a sensitive heart and the courage to entertain the possibility that maybe the Spirit of God is much nobler than the best of our theologies. In traditional theologies, whether Catholic or Protestant, we tend to claim a direct line to God, through the blood of Christ, at the exclusion of the people of other denominations.
The influence of my father's family was strong. So I was introduced to the Catholic tradition by the Jesuit fathers, and became Catholic. I still can feel the anguish I felt whenever I visited my Protestant relatives. No, they didn't firebomb me. But to the tender spirit of a child, religious ridicule for being a Catholic is per-
era.
With the exception of a few individuals and groups, popular Christianity is out of touch with the human condition and has even become one of the most serious problems we need to solve. During the years, I have struggled with this problem in Africa, Europe, South America, the Caribbean and North America. I therefore plead, to both leaders and followers alike, for common sense, pruning of the theological non-essentials, focus on the essentials, goodwill and true unity between Protestants and Catholics, for “there is one body and one Spirit, just as ye were called in one hope of your calling; one Lord, one faith, one baptism; one God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all” (Ephesians 4:4-6).
Is not this, after all, the simple message Christ lived and died for?
Armed with the lessons of history and the admonitions of the present state of the world, let's be honest with ourselves and shed from our individual and collective spiritual eyes the scales of prejudice, self-righteousness, selfishness, bigotry, ignorance and the many superstitious fears that cloud our spiritual vision and clog the arteries our spiritual heart and the nerves of our spiritual brain.
For God's sake, let's build God's Kingdom on earth and not our own exclusive kingdoms. For Christ's sake, let's stop our religious madness now. For Humanity's sake, let's love as Christ loved, loving not only our brethren, but also our enemies (Matthew 5:43-48).

She was in no way trying to deceive the students. Yes, a suggestion may have been brought up to keep the situation "hush hush," but that does not mean that she in any way wants this to happen. It was what it was, a suggestion. You have to remember that the people who run KU on Wheels are also students so if they were to deceive students, they would be deceiving themselves. Any decision could have left someone unhappy. As you can see, the board did not agree with that option, and students now know about the bus situation. I don't think the blame should in any way have been put on Ms. Skalla for thinking of options. I am sure she knew the board would vote for the best option for the students. Therefore, making suggestions about how to solve a problem, whatever the suggestions may be, is nothing wrong, and in my opinion, good that she can make suggestions and then let the board vote for the best one. And that is indeed what happened.
"Thursday's article "Bus pass remedies were deceptive," was very inappropriate. Running KU on Wheels is not an easy task. Transportation Coordinator Nicole Skalla has this task and does a very good job. She did not ask for the bus system to have glitches, and when it did, she and the transportation board had a big task on their hands. But when a problem of this magnitude occurs, you have to think of many solutions and then decide on one good solution to the problem
Skalla was not trying to deceive
Criticism of Skalla was personal
I would like to extend my support for Nicole Skalla's efforts to provide effective service for all students at the University of Kansas. I would also like to note that many of the criticisms that

Pedestrians have the right of way
In response to Mr. Miller's article about pedestrians:
I find it incredibly rude that a person who admittedly drives 10 miles over the speed limit (which last time I looked, was breaking the law) dare assume that the raised eyebrows he gets from pedestrians in crosswalks are looks of "I'm-too-cool-to-hurry." I believe Mr. Miller is suffering from projectory thinking. Usually when people slow down in crosswalks and raise their eyebrows at an approaching vehicle, it is because the driver of that vehicle is speeding and thinking that he/she is "too-cool-to-slow-down." I would also like to bring to his attention, and the attention of all other drivers with his narrow view of thinking, that yes, pedestrians do have the right of way in a crosswalk and if they are struck by a vehicle, the driver of that vehicle is found at fault, not the pedestrian. As a pedestrian and a driver, I am always aware of my surroundings (not watching squirrels playing in the trees) and very aware of the fact that cars are bigger than people.
I am also aware that as a driver of such a "life-endangering object." I and I alone am responsible for how I drive. I would also like to point out the sad incident we had last semester when one of our stu-
under her trust many others at the University try their hardest every day to merely do a good job. They also want to maintain positive relations with the Kansan. Every year it seems that this task is made all the more difficult when personal criticisms are leveled when it is only policy that is in question. It is important to make that distinction between what is policy and what is personal. Apparently, the board cannot.
the editorial board made of Skalla are in areas that are not under her direct control.
Although the criticism of Hollywood Theaters' domination and ill use of the Lawrence market is valid, the complaint that Lawrence no longer has a discount theater is not. For almost 50 years, Student Union Activities (SUA) has been providing films for the KU and Lawrence communities at a discount rate. The SUA films committees are working specifically in favor of the students. The films are programmed by students, and are, in turn, financed by students in the form of ticket and movie card sales. We provide a quality film program that will improve with the participation of the students, not only through ticket sales but through suggestions of films that you would like to see, and that you think the University community could benefit from.
dents was struck by a car while crossing the street at a crosswalk on campus. I'm sure it was her fault completely, I mean after all, she didn't see the car coming and certainly it wasn't the driver's fault that this particular student was born blind.
SUA would like to invite all of you to demonstrate your overwhelming support for discount theaters in the form of a sit-in at the Kansas Union in Alderson Auditorium at 7 or 9 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday. Tickets are $2.
In response to the recent uproar by KU students and the Lawrence community concerning the closing of Lawrence's "only" discount theater, I would like to suggest that the KU and Lawrence communities, including the University Daily Kansan and Student Senate look more closely at the options.

Speaker cultivates support for bill on African hunger
By Pallavi Agarwal
Kansan staff writer
KU students should lobby federal legislators to pass a bill that would improve U.S. aid to Africa, a member of a hunger-advocacy organization said Friday.
Stephanie Seidel, Bread for the World campus organizer, spoke Friday afternoon at Alcove A in the Kansas Union. Her presentation was organized by the Center for Community Outreach. Six people attended.
Her organization, based in Washington, D.C., has about 44,000 members in the United States. It works to build support for legislation to alleviate hunger. She was on campus to discuss the Africa: Seeds of Hope Act, a bill that will be considered by the House this week and by the Senate before the fall session ends on Oct. 9.
Seidel said students should write letters or send e-mail in support of the bill to Sen. Sam Brownback, R-Kan., who is on the Foreign Relations
Committee.
The bill would focus U.S. policy on improving food distribution in Africa and on making credit and agricultural resources available to farmers. Seidel said.
1993 World Bank statistics show that 39 percent of Africans live in poverty and that Africa is the only region in the world where poverty is projected to increase during the next decade, she said.
"Food production in Africa must triple for everyone to get food to eat," she said.
She also said that 50 percent of food produced in Africa is lost because of inadequate transportation and storage facilities.
Seidel's presentation developed into a discussion on global poverty and declining U.S. foreign aid.
Chris Hess, co-director of the Center for Community Outreach, said that public support of foreign aid seemed low.
"People say that one should first

end hunger here before dedicating resources there," he said.
Jama Defever, co-coordinator of Concerned, Aware and Active Students, said that the group had organized a write-a-thon for later this month. Participants can write letters to legislators on several different topics, including the Africa: Seeds of Hope Act If Congress has not passed it by then. The campaign will be from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. on Sept. 29 in the lobby of the Kansas Union.

Drumming lifts students' spirits
Percussion group focuses on fun, healing of rhythm
By Pallavi Agarwal
Kansan staff writer
The gazebo in South Park throbbed with percussion music Friday as a few University of Kansas students jammed and danced away in the slowly fading evening.
It was this semester's first percussion circle organized by the Circle of Percussive Sound, a student organization at the University. A group of about 10, including students and Lawrence and Kansas City percussion enthusiasts, attended the event.
The club was created a year ago to
bring together drummers and other lovers of percussion music, said Chris Lovorn, president of the club.
"A good rapport between drummers is a form of communication," he said. "We are trying to bring people together through rhythm."
Many people brought their own drums, Carol Buijut, Lawrence resident, also brought a suitcase-full of bowls and lids.
"The best part of it is to play on everything you can find," she said. "My favorite new instrument is cardboard."
A percussion instrument is anything that can be hit with the hand or a stick, said James Abbott, KU graduate and Lawrence resident.
Group meetings consist of two jamming sessions and a guest presentation, Lovvorn said. This semester, the group will meet from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. Oct.16 and Nov.6 at the Frontier Room in the Burge Union.
In the past, the group has paired up with the KU music therapy club to focus on the medicinal value of drumming.
"Studies have been done on how drumming can help terminally-ill children and help in holistic healing." Lovorn said.
Students stage protest at fur store
Last year, the two clubs co-sponsored a presentation by Kansas City clinician Berry Bernstein, who spoke on healing drums, Lovorn said.
This summer, the local belly dancing group had joined the percussion circle to inject some Near Eastern rhythms, said Michael Moore, Lawrence junior.

Seven University of Kansas students joined an anti-fur protest in Overland Park Saturday.
The students, members of Proponents of Animal Liberation, or PAL, joined a Kansas City animal-rights group to protest against Alaskan Fur Co., 9029 Metcalf Ave.
They confined themselves to an
The 26-member group marched on a sidewalk outside the store, carrying signs against fur trade and animal cruelty and inviting motorists to honk for support. One of the marchers sported a furry animal costume resembling a bear.
area off the store's property, and two Kansas City police monitored the protest.
"We are trying to convince consumers not to buy fur," said Michael Schmitt, Lawrence graduate student and president of PAL.
He said it was the first time he could remember PAL participated in an anti-fur protest.
The protest was organized by the People for Animal Rights, or PAR, an organization committed to ending cruelty to animals through non-violent means, said Kelly Beard-Tittone, president of PAR.
"Fur is a thing of the past. Wearing fur just does not make sense in a compassionate, educated society," she
said.
PAR has been organizing anti-far marches in Kansas City for over ten years, she said. "We do at least two marches every year."
The group marched for an hour beginning at 11:15 a.m., carrying signs saying "No Skin Off Your Back," "Cruelty Wears Fur" and "Fashion should not cost an arm and a leg."
Beard-Tittite said fur trade statistics showed declining business.
"Mink sales are down worldwide. Fur farms have been cut by half in America and killing of animals for fur has dropped significantly since 1968," she said.
The owner of Alaskan Fur Co. would not comment.

Father, daughter share same teaching experience
In 1964, University of Kansas professor Anita Herzfeld taught one semester of Spanish. Saturday she met with one of the students from that class and his daughter, who is now one of Herzfeld's students.
By Steph Brewer
Kansan staff writer
Herzfeld, associate professor of Latin American studies, was approached this semester by Amy Schuetz, Great Bend senior, in her Language and Society in Latin America class.
"He's sort of an unforgettable character," she said.
"All of a sudden, Amy shows up in my class and says,
'My dad knows you.' Herfeld said.
She said although she hadn't seen Schuetz's father, Perry Schuetz, since he was a student at the KU Medical Center, she remembered his name instantly.
"He's sort of an unforgettable character," she said. She said that while teaching Spanish she had a couple of outstanding students — one of them was Perry Schuetz.
"There are some kids you always remember," she said. Perry Schuetz, who majored in Spanish and chemistry, also remembered Herzfeld after he graduated. He said when University faculty visited Great Bend he would ask them about her.
"It was like we walked out of a room and walked back in." Perry Schuetz said.
"She was just a fantastic teacher," he said
She was just hard at work. Both Perry Schuetz and Herzfeld said it seemed like no time had passed when they met again Saturday at Herzfeld's house.
herzied said she had never met with father and daughter students at the same time.
I love you. You're my best friend. I miss you always. I'll be in your company when I'm away. I hope you are feeling happy and content. I wish you all the best. Love you.

Amy Schuetz, a fifth-generation KU student, said she took the class because she needed a non-Western culture class and wanted to learn more about her father's interests as a way to become closer to him.

Doctors discuss cancer treatments
By Sue Franke
Kansan staff writer
The pendulum is swinging from radical surgery to intervention for women with cancer.
John Weed, director of gynecologic oncology for the University of Kansas Medical Center, and other physicians gave presentations Saturday at the "Women's Cancer Issues Symposium" in Kansas City, Mo. Topics included cancer screening techniques, alternative hormone therapies and genetic testing.
The goal was to identify the most important risk factors for major cancer diseases, said Carol Fabian, medical director of the University of Kansas Cancer Center.
Fabian works with selective estro
gen receptor modulators, which are alternative medications for treating breast cancer. A trial of one drug, Tamoxifen, showed a 49 percent reduction in the number of new breast cancers and a 20 percent reduction in hip and arm fractures, she said.
"Cures used to be rare," Fabian said. "We can now cure two-thirds of women with breast cancer. Because cures are now possible, women are not as frightened to undergo surveillance and treatment."
Until the development of these medicines, Weed said surgery was the only alternative.
"With the advance of technology, patients avoid cataclysmic treatments and suffering for the rest of their lives," he said.
Henry Lynch, professor of medicine at Creighton University in Omaha, Neb., gave a presentation emphasizing the use of family histories as cancer-screening tools.
"Women should take a well-orchestrated family history of parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles and analyze it critically," he said. "It could help doctors know where to go in terms of management and surveillance."
Lynch said that nearly 10 percent of all cancers were hereditary and that men also pass cancer genes on to their children.
More than 125 oncologists, obstetricians, gynecologists and other health care professionals attended the symposium.

Clinton's testimony to be aired today
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — A key Democratic senator suggested yesterday that President Clinton immediately volunteer to testify before Congress to halt a political water torture that could escalate this morning when Americans will view raw footage of the president's grand-jury testimony about Monica Lewinsky.
That video will show Clinton admitting "inappropriate intimate contact" and "sexual banter" with Lewinsky but resisting prosecutors' efforts to define the conduct further. Clinton offers many legalistic replies and, at times, shows remorse.
"I regret that what began as friendship came to include this conduct," the president answered when he was first asked a sex-related question by prosecutors seven minutes into his Aug. 17 testimony. The president's testimony was described to The Associated Press by lawyers familiar with it.
The moments of presidential regret are interspersed with legal hairspilting involving the terms "sexual relations" and "alone" and, in one exchange, the tense of a verb.
Four prosecutors can be heard
posing questions to the president, frequently u s i n g graphic sexual terms and even starting off the entire question with a debate over the oath the president had just taken.
.
Clinton : Video testimony to be shown on television.
At one point, Clinton was asked why he failed to give to Paula Jones' lawyers a series of correspondence with Kathleen Willey, the former White House volunteer who accused the president of an unwanted sexual advance near the Oval Office in 1993.
Clinton replied that he understood the subpoena to cover personal documents, and the Willey letters were in White House files. If the lawyer wanted the letters, Clinton said, they should have issued two subpoenas — one personal and the other official, lawyers said.
The White House and Congress — both facing perils in the unfolding impeachment proceedings — braced for the release of an avalanche of new evidence that includes more material in which Lewinsky explicitly describes sex acts with Clinton, the president's videotape, presidential phone messages left at Lewinsky's home and the FBI test results that conclude semen on one of Lewinsky's dresses belonged to Clinton.
In an event unparalleled in history, the unfiltered footage of the president's grand-jury testimony will be aired by cable news channels as it is released this morning. Clinton will be in New York City addressing the United Nations.

Farmers have mixed reactions to GOP relief plan
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Tom Giesel says he's had to pinch pennies to keep his Kansas wheat farm afloat and needs help from Congress. But Giesel isn't certain a Republican-backed $3.9 billion plan unveiled last week is the answer.
ports.
"It's kind of like giving somebody a breath mint after you eat a meal," said Gielssel, who needed donations from his community to pay for a recent trip to Washington to lobby his lawmakers for help. "This is a small drop in the bucket."
Instead, the Larned farmer said he preferred a Democratic proposal that increases government price sup-
Congressional Republicans introduced their plan Thursday in hopes of stemming the downward farm economy, which has been reeling from natural disasters, crop disease and low prices.
Under the GOP proposal — expected to be part of the 1999 agricultural spending bill—$1.5 billion would be given to farmers hit by crop losses this year; $675 million would help farmers in Minnesota and the Dakotas struggling from years of crop disease and flooding; and $75 million would go to livestock farmers who lost their feed this year.
The proposal also would provide $1.6 billion for a 29 percent increase
in the annual payments farmers get each year to compensate for low prices.
The Democrats unsuccessfully have pushed a $7 billion plan that includes a provision to lift limits on marketing loans for farmers and extend the terms of those loans from nine months to 15 months — something farmers like John Dietrich of Tilden, Neb. say is crucial to any package.
Under the Republican plan, the direct payments to farmers would be split in many cases with landlords, leaving farmers with even less, he said.
Others found some solace in the GOP plan.
"Our producers need an economic
shot in the arm," said Larry Wooten, of the North Carolina Farm Bureau in Raleigh, N.C. "We're not convinced that marketing loans and those type things are going to be the answer. Our farmers need some sort of direct payment."
Sen. Pat Roberts, R-Kan, and other GOP leaders say their proposal, coupled with measures to open trade markets and offer tax relief, will mean good news for farmers.
But for Tom Gliesel, a longer wait is too much for farmers.
"It's kind of a slap in the face when they take their produce to town and a truckload won't pay your utilities or won't pay your health insurance," Giessel said.

Funny business back in Lawrence
PARKS & PRIMES
Downtown toy store Fun and Games, set for reopening sale

When Bryce Billings saw a businessfor-sale sign on Massachusetts Street, his reaction was all fun and games.
"My brother and I both joked about buying it," he said of the vacant storefront.
After discussing financial issues with his parents, Gwen and Larry, who own the Lawrence Antique Mall, 830 Massachusetts St., Billings stopped joking and purchased the Fun and Games toy store. 816 Massachusetts St.
The sale will include a raffle for everything in the store's display window. Customers can win such items as a picture of dogs playing pool, board games, kites and other assorted novelty toys.
Although Billings reopened the store Aug. 31, the official grand reopening sale will be Saturday.
Fun and Games had been owned by Larry Cornelius for 20 years. It had been closed for one year after damage from a fire next door at Sunflower Outdoor and Bike Shop. Cornelius decided not to reopen the store and sold it to Billings.
It took about one week of cleaning and rummaging through inventory before Billings could open for business — funny business.
"It's the kind of place where you walk in and you're stepping into another world," Billings said. "It's a place to get crazy stuff."
Most of the inventory hangs from the ceiling, protrudes from walls or hangs on shelves.
The store features two giant display cases of stuffed animals and dolls, puzzles, model airplanes and board games.
Fun and Games also has a vast array of costumes and party supplies, including tiki torches and other tropical-theme decorations.
"This is your one-stop luau store," he said.
Billings also pointed out some of the
stranger items in the store.
"There's weird stuff like rubber hearts," he said.
Billings said that Fun and Games could order many items it does not have in stock.
Samuel Copeland, Great Bend junior,
was shopping at Fun and Games for a gift for his girlfriend.
"They've got interesting little trinkets like rock polishers," he said. "They're so simple even intellectuals think they're fun."

Alternative publication keeps eye on local issues
By Pallavi Agarwal
Kansan staff writer
After making a profit of $35 last semester, an alternative newspaper published by a group of University of Kansas students is hitting the stands again.
The first fall issue of the Kaw Valley Independent, a semi-weekly community newspaper that deals with local issues and the Lawrence arts scene, will be out tomorrow.
About 8,000 copies will be distributed to 125 destinations in Lawrence everywhere Pitch Weekly, a Kansas City-based newspaper, is found, said Kip Curtis, New York City graduate student and staff member.
The magazine is eclectic, although it leans to the left politically, Curtis said.
"We cover several things from local issues to music and art. We believe that the University and the community are intricately linked," he said. "We also want our newspaper to be an independent voice of the community."
The newspaper was created out of a need to address local issues not covered by other city media, Curtis said.
"Local media like the Kansan and
Lawrence Journal-World do not ask hard questions," he said.
The first fall edition will look at issues of development in Lawrence.
"We want to provide alternative perspectives to what the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce says about progress. For example, we will be looking at development in the west side of the city where real estate agents are making millions by selling farmland." Curtis said.
But the newspaper is not against business. The Independent's financial mainstay has been advertisements from local businesses.
"We love downtown local business. But we draw a line. We will not accept ads from say, Borders." Curtis said.
Last semester, the group invested $4,000 in the paper, largely obtained through advertising. But money is a perennial headache, said Randall Statler, Kansas City, Kan., senior and staff member.
"Even though people compliment us for our work, nobody wants to invest in the paper," he said.
Statler, who handles graphic art , said his portfolio is building slowly with his work for the paper.

team is disappointed about its record. In fact, if you would have told coach Ray Bechard last month that the Jayhawks would be 9-2 going into their conference schedule, he would have been happy.
But when the Jayhawks stepped off the floor last Saturday night after their loss to Saint Louis University in
the Jayhawk Classic, his record was not much consolation.

Second place isn't bad — especially considering that the Jayhawks have already won as many matches in the first month of the season as they won during all of last year.
But they know they could have won the tournament, and that's frustrating.
"One of our goals was to finish in the top two in all three of our pre-conference tournaments, and we did that," Bechard said. "But it's disappointing because we were in a good position to win this one, and we just couldn't close

In the second game, Kansas was up 14-11 but couldn't finish off the Billikens and lost 17-15. In the third game the Jayhawks lost, 15-13, after being ahead 13-7.

After overpowering the first two opponents, setter Laura Rahde said she couldn't explain the Jayhawks' inconsistency in the championship match.
"We just weren't executing," Rohde said. "Maybe we could've passed better. I could have made better choices with my sets. I don't know. The intensity wasn't there."
Right side hitter Nancy Bell said the defense collapsed in the title game.
"Defense wins games," Bell said. "We weren't producing. Saint Louis dug a lot of balls in long rallies, and we haven't seen any teams that did that. We weren't executing defensively, and that hurt us."
The Jayhawks begin their Big 12 Conference schedule Wednesday against Oklahoma. Despite the disappointment of losing to Saint Louis, the team said it was ready to begin conference play.
"We're looking to turn some heads," Rohde said. "I think a lot of teams are underestimating us."
Rohde, Reves and outside hitter Mary Beth Albrecht were selected to the Jayhawk Classic All-Tournament Team.

Saturday's football game was a game of firsts for the Jayhawks.
"That's a key game for us right now, to go and try to get our first road victory." Allen said.
"It was something else," linebacker Steve Bratten said. "It kind of, maybe, turned the corner for us a little bit. We've worked so hard at winning games, and we finally did."
The Jayhawks haven't won a road game since Nov. 2, 1996, when they defeated Iowa State. 34-31.
After Saturday's 63-21 annihilation of Illinois State, though, Kansas has plenty to build on.
And they hope to add another first this Saturday when they travel to Alabama-Birmingham — their first road win in the Terry Allen era.
Four Jayhawks scored their first career touchdowns — defensive lineman Nate Dwyer, Bratten, and running backs Dustin Curry and Julius Bruce.
"That was a nice touchdown for Steve, and then the opportunity for Nate Dwyer to pick it up and run it in." Allen said. "It was nice for those kids to have some fun with the
Bratten and Dwyer both scored as a result of an interception, the first of their careers.
game."
"My first thought was, take it to the end zone and don't get caught," Dwyer said. "It's right there, you've got one chance, you're probably not going to get another one—get going."
The Hawks racked up 507 yards total offense with 269 rushing and 238 passing, the most offensive yards since Allen began coaching.
Bratten's interception ended Illinois State quarterback Kevin Glenn's string of more than 100 passes without an interception.
The Jayhawks scored on every possession with the exception of two
turnovers and one failed fourth-down conversion.
Allen was able to play his second string offense and rack up more than 500 vards.
"Had we eliminated a couple of turnovers, you can't ask for much offensively." Allen said.
"It's ridiculous to do it any other way," Allen said. "You want people to have an opportunity to do things, but there's no reason to make it any worse than it was."
The Jayhawks, 1-2, were pleased to add a win to their early disappointing season.
"It just felt good to win." Bratten said.
Alexander plays well after break from game
By Brad Hallier
Kansan sportswriter
It had been three years since junior quarterback Jay Alexander had played in a football game.
So naturally, he was a little nervous when he made his collegiate debut Saturday night against Illinois State.
"I was excited and nervous to play in front of the home crowd," he said. "The more I was out there and threw, I started calming down."
Alexander came into the game with 4:20 left in the second quarter and the Jayhawks leading 42.7. He played the remainder of the game as the Jayhawks accomplished their first win of the season, 63-21.
After handing off on his first three plays, he watched in horror as defensive back Adam Franklin intercepted his first pass.
He would have to wait until the next possession to complete his first collegiate pass. On a second-and-12 from the Redbirds' 34, Alexander threw to receiver Terminal Fulton for 24
"It was jitters," Alexander said. "I didn't read the defense whatsoever. I just dropped back, picked a receiver and threw it."
yards.
For the game, Alexander was five-for-six for 74 yards. His longest completion was a 25 yard pass to running back Julius Bruce in the third quarter that set up a Bruce touchdown run.
"After the interception I was pleased," he said. "I was happy with the way I played."
Kansas coach Terry Allen also was satisfied.
"No. it didn't bother me at all." he
Alexander said he wasn't bothered by the fact he only threw six passes in two plus quarters at the helm.
"He did a good job," he said. "Shoot.
He tried an interception.
Besides that, he did a pretty nice job
as far as delivering the ball in there."
said. "I just wanted to slowly get into it."
Alexander had not played in a football game since his high school, Independence, lost in the first round of the 5A state playoffs to Blue Valley, 17-8 in 1995.
He began fall 1996 practice with Garden City Community College, but never took classes or played there. He also attended Independence Community College but did not play there either.
"I've always wanted to go to Kansas," he said. "I was done with juco, and I talked to my dad, and I decided to give it a try here. I've always wanted to play D-I."

Ripken ends 2,632-game iron-man record
Associated Press
BALTIMORE — The Streak is over.
After 16 years and 2,632 consecutive games, Cal Ripken took himself out of the Baltimore Orioles' starting lineup last night and did not play ending the most amazing iron-man record in sports history with just one week left in the season.
"I think the time is right," Ripken told manager Ray Miller.
The 38-year-old third baseman said he was not hurt. But with the Orioles out of playoff contention and playing their final home game against the New York Yankees, Ripken decided to end the string that began on May 30, 1982.
The end came during a magical season that has featured the historic home-run chase between Mark McGwire and Sammy Sosa, a perfect game by David Wells and the Yankees' pursuit of the American League record for victories.
"What Cal did is so unbelievable. That's one record I do think that will be around for a generation," baseball commissioner Bud Selig said.
Albert Belle of the Chicago White Sox played his 327th straight game yesterday, the next-longest string in the majors.
There had been recent talk that Ripken would volunteer to end the streak, which broke Lou Gehrig's record of 2,130 straight games. Rookie Ryan Minor started in his place.
One out into the game, when it became evident that Ripken would not be playing, all of the Yankees walked to the top step of the dugout and applauded.
Ripken emerged from the Orioles dugout, tipped his hat toward the Yankees and stepped back down to the bench. With the sellout crowd standing and cheering, Ripken came out again and bowed to his fans.
Ripken pulled himself a week before finishing his 16th straight season of playing every game.
On Sept. 6, 1995, Ripken passed the record set by Gehrig, who was forced from the game by a rare muscular disorder that later became known as Lou Gehrig's disease.
There were plenty of close calls that almost brought the streak to an end.
The scariest moment came in the middle of the 1997 season, when back spams nearly forced Ripken to sit out a game in Anaheim. But he played in pain, hit the game-winning home run and kept the streak intact through the end of the season.
Commentary
Sunday afternoon habit ruined by fantasy football
Writing these columns is really beginning to interfere with my long-standing tradition of watching football every Sunday after noon.
I used to religiously dedicate countless hours of my only day off to the NFL. It didn't matter what game was on or who was playing, I was watching.
Now, with the burden of providing sports fans across campus with a weekly dose of athletic analysis, I have found myself drawn to the dark side of professional football.
It is called fantasy football. And I am an addict.
For those of you who have no idea what I'm talking about, let me explain.
Fantasy football is played by drafting a predetermined number of real NFL players and pitting them against another team in your particular league.
Points are accumulated when a player on your team scores a touchdown or kicks a field goal in an actual NFL game. If your team scores more points collectively than your opponent that week, you win.
This obsession with winning a make-believe game against a nonexistent team has drawn me in.
In no longer care about what team wins each week, or which teams are headed for the playoffs. It doesn't matter to me anymore.
Now all I care about is fantasy football.
I have become obsessed with the individual performances of my players, and it
has severely skewed my outlook of the sport.
I find myself rooting for the opposing team's quarterback to get hurt or hoping its wide receiver will drop a sure touchdown pass. I will
Kevin Wilson opinionkansan.com
even cheer against my favorite NFL team if one of my players is on the other side of the ball.
In three short weeks, I have gone from a curious bystander to an overly dedicated fantasy football general manager. Magazines containing nothing but fantasy football statistics clutter my coffee table and fantasy football Web sites
have been added to my list of favorite places to visit.
So far, the Barnstormers, named in honor of the Arena Football team located in Des Moines, Iowa, have had an up-and-down season
Every day I call my managing partner Dan to discuss trade options and roster moves. Each night I dream of injury reports and highlight reels. Fantasy football dominates my free time and provides me with a competitive outlet.
Our team is leading the league in scoring, paced by the NFL leader in touchdowns, Terrell Davis. But because of some unlucky bounces in Week 1, we find our record at a less than desirable 1-1.
There are still plenty of Sundays left to climb to the top of the fantasy football heap and plenty of games remaining to keep me busy scouring the statistics.
But I don't have the time to write anymore about it because it looks like Davis is about to score yet another touchdown for the Barnstormers. — I mean, the Broncos.

Soccer team earns first win away from home this season
Goalkeeper Fecke blocks seven shots in Kansas shutout
By Brad Hallier Kansan sportswriter
The Jayhawks dropped to 3-4 on the season with a 1-0 loss to host
The Kansas soccer team finally ended its road woes this weekend, but it couldn't quite earn a sweep.
James Madison in the championship game of the MJU/Sheraton Four Points Tournament in Harrisonburg, Va.
SOCIAL SPORTS
James Madison, from the Colonial Athletic Association, improved to 4-2 with its 1-0 win in yesterday's championship game. The Dukes scored in the 12th minute on a goal by forward Lisa Cioffo to give them the championship. The Dukes dominated the match, outshooting Kansas 29-4.
"We played well for short windows of time," Kansas coach Dan Magner said. "James Madison had
a majority of the play and shots on our goal, which we were able to absorb except one time."
Friday, the Jayhawks defeated the Arizona Wildcats 1-0 in the first semifinal.
The win was the team's first away from home this season.
Magner said that Friday's win was not only a big win for the soccer program, but a big win for the Big 12 Conference.
"We came out and played well from the opening kickoff," he said. "We had more of the play early on through hard work and pressure. We were organized defensively and we didn't allow them to attack often. Arizona is a solid team, and it's an excellent victory for us, and good for the Big 12 to earn a win over a Pac-10 team. It was a hard-fought victory over a tough opponent."
The lone goal Friday came when substitute forward Lindsey Horner headed in a goal from six yards out after a corner kick in the 40th minute. The assist went to midfielder Melissa Downing.
"It was funny in that Lindsey had just came into the game before the corner," Magner said. "The substitution worked out well for us."
Magner said that Arizona put a lot of pressure on the Jayhawks in the second half, but the Kansas defense
"Overall, I'm pleased with the outcome of the weekend,and we are looking forward to getting after it this weekend."
Dan Magner
Kansas soccer coach
held its own. Goalkeeper Jen Fecke
recorded seven saves in the shutout.
"It was a big field and an outstanding surface," Magner said. "Both teams could pass and move, and players relied on skill rather than a lot of fouling.
"Overall, I'm pleased with the outcome of the weekend, and we are looking forward to getting after it this weekend."
Unlike many of its previous contests, Kansas wasn't involved in a physical match with a lot of fouls. The two teams combined for only 14 fouls.
r the Jayhawks return home this week to host the inaugural Kansas Tournament. Drury and Western Illinois open the tournament at 2 p.m. Friday and the Jayhawks take on Central Oklahoma at 4 p.m. The tournament concludes Sunday.

Volleyball's secret exposed
The biggest Kansas sports story of the weekend happened in Allen Field House, not at Memorial Stadium.
Commentary
Shortly after 7 p.m. Friday, the Kansas women's volleyball team stepped onto the court for their first home game of the season.
The team is playing for first year coach Ray Bechard in its final season in the field house. Volleyball competitions will move to a new building between Allen and Anschutz Sports Pavilion as early as November.
The move is the future, the game was the present and losing, hopefully, is the past.
Shortly after 9 p.m., Bechard and the Jayhawks walked off the court victorious, having won their match against San Francisco three games to none.
The win was historic in several ways.
CHEMISTRY
First, coupled with a win Saturday afternoon, it gave the Jayhawks nine wins — as many as the team had all last year.
Second, the Bechard era at Kansas began with success. I say Bechard era because he
will turn the team into a perennial top-25 team during the next four seasons.
Third, it only took one game to convert me into a Kansas volleyball fan — something everyone at the University should consider.
Matt Friedrichs
mattt@ukans.edu
Ive met Bechard, who formerly coached Barton County Community College, and I like his personal manner and dedication to his players.
Then I attended a KU practice. The women practiced hard, trying to improve on weaknesses.
The game Friday brought it all together. Bechard's
studied concentration, the players' exuberance and a competitive setting topped by a win helped me see what a handful of people already knew — volleyball, especially disciplined, winning volleyball, is exciting
Unfortunately, only a small crowd witnessed the 1988 home opener.
I arrived shortly before game time and had no problem parking or finding a seat in the fifth row.
To be sure, I wouldn't expect 16,300 people at the first game of a team that won only nine games last year, but now the secret's out.
Becky Albrecht, mother of outside hitter Mary Beth Albrecht, waved a KU flag whenever the Jayhawks plued well.
Besides winning and Allen Field House, volleyball has much to offer. The pep band, cheerleaders and quirky between-game promotions only added to the few — but knowledgeable and enthusiastic — fans.
She made the trip from St. Charles, Mo., to see her daughter and the team play.
Karen Donovan, stepmother of outside hitter Moira Donovan, wore a denim shirt with a Jayhawk painted on the left shoulder and "You go girls" painted on the right shoulder.
Do you need another reason?
The serve is high, Kristi Kiyabu passes it to setter Laura Rohde, who sets the ball, and, THUMP, Albrecht spikes it between two defenders. The ball hits the floor and bounces high off the court.
You can be there next time the official says, "Point KU."

Big 12 teams have winning weekend
Eight conference wins move record to 22-7
The Associated Press
OKLAHOMA CITY — With few exceptions, the football teams of the Big 12 Conference probably feel pretty good about themselves as they head into the fourth full week of the 1998 season.
After Saturday, conference teams are 22-7 against nonleague opponents. Colorado, Nebraska and Texas Tech are 3-0 against teams from other conferences. Kansas State is 2-0.
Eleven conference teams played during the weekend and eight of them were winners. The only losers were Texas — beaten by Kansas State — Oklahoma and Missouri.
Missouri made a good showing against top-ranked Ohio State, leading 14-13 at halftime before getting outmuscled down the stretch and losing 35-14.
"We ran the ball well, but you can't expect the guys up front to pound for 70 plays against one of the best teams in the country," Missouri quarterback Corby Jones said. "I think we would
have done better if we would have mixed it up. We would have had a better chance to win."
The same is true for Oklahoma, which relied almost exclusively on its running game in a 13-12 loss to Cal. The Sooners scored on their third play, a 58-yard throwback screen pass, but they completed only two of their other nine tries the rest of the night.
Quarterback Brandon Daniels returned after missing the previous game with a shoulder injury. He ran for 67 yards, including a couple of big gainers, but it was clear that Cal considered him no threat. They used nine men up front all night, sometimes more than that.
"Our running backs ran hard, our line blocked hard," Oklahoma offensive coordinator Joe Dickinson said. "But when it came to executing the pass, we didn't do it. You've got to make those plays."
Two of the biggest victories belonged to Baylor and Oklahoma State.
Baylor, a loser to Oregon State in its opener two weeks ago, jumped out to a 26-0 halftime lead against North Carolina State and held on for a 33-30 victory in Waco, Texas.
The outcome was not secured
BIG 12 CONFERENCE
until Baylor's Gary Baxter blocked Kent Passingham's 39-yard field-goal try with four seconds remaining.
Give them credit." Wolfpack coach Mike O'Cain said. "They have great running backs, and they played harder and wanted it more, especially in the first half."
In Stillwater, Okla., Oklahoma State rebounded from a miserable performance a week earlier against Tula to beat No. 25 Mississippi State 42-23.
The Cowboys had two backs run for more than 100 yards for the first time since 1996 and finished with 561 total yards, their biggest output since 1988, when they had Barry Sanders.
"We came out and we executed," said quarterback Tony Lindsay, who finished with 288 total yards and two touchdowns. "The line whipped them up front, and we were able to move the ball down the field. We cut down on the penalties and ran our game plan like we were supposed to."
The marque game of the weekend end proved what many surmised beforehand — Texas coach Mack Brown has a lot of rebuilding to do before the Longhorns are back among the nation's elite teams.
Texas visited Kansas State and got hammered 48-7. Ricky Williams gained only 43 yards, and Wildcat players ran through and around Texas defenders all afternoon.
"They just kept coming and coming," Williams said after his lowest output since a 36-year game against UCLA last year. "I remember a couple of holes, but there were not many."
The feel-good story of the early season continues to be Iowa State. The Cyclones beat Ball State 38-0, giving them consecutive victories for just the second time this decade.
Darren Davis ran for 200 yards and scored three touchdowns and Iowa State recorded its first shutout in 14 years. The Cyclones gave up 44.8 points a game last year.
"To come from where we were last year defensively and to have the improvement we've shown up to this point, I'm real pleased," coach Dan McCarney said.

The race had about 28,000 starters — 4,000 more than last year — making it the third-largest marathon, behind London
Thus the men's and women's marks were broken in the same year. Kenya's Tegla Loroupe smashed the women's 13-year-old record with 2:20:47 at Rotterdam in April.
Costa said after running on a cool, sunny and windless day.
Da Costa broke to the front at the halfway point, reached in 1:04:42. He then struck out by himself and his acceleration was so quick that within less than a mile, he was 45 seconds in front.
He ran the second half in 1:01:23, and after crossing the finish line, did a cartwheel in celebration.
Belgium's Marleen Renders was the women's winner at 2:25:22, nearly three minutes ahead of runner-up and first-time marathon runner Susan Chepkemei of Kenya (2:28:19). Three-time Berlin winner Renata Kokowska of Poland finished third at 2:31:54.

Berlin has attracted some of the world's top distance runners because of its reputation for fast times. Kenya's Sammy Lelei clocked the then second-fastest time in history of 2:07:02 at the 1995 race.
Da Costa, who is from Descoberto, 120 miles north of Rio de Janeiro, earned $200,000 for the victory.
Da Costa, who has been running since he was 17, now is expected to command up to $250,000 in appearance money at future marathons.
"This will make him a millionaire," said Luis Posso, Da Costa's manager.

Abortion display stimulates protests
(USPS 650-640)
Anti-abortion advocates use graphic photographs to get their point across
By Chad Bottos
Kansan staff writer
Students take notice
Cool weather and intermittent rain showers did not dampen the intensity of the abortion debate on campus yesterday as a large anti-abortion display was set up on the front lawn of Strong Hall.
A group of about 25 students who are abortion-rights advocates vocally protested the display from an area a few feet away. They held small signs and velled abortion-rights slogans.
The large photographic display is called the Genocide Awareness Project and is being sponsored by the KU Christian Legal Society and Javhawker Campus Ministry.
David White, KU law student and president of the Christian Legal Society, said his group wanted to stimulate discussion on the abortion subject.
"Our members are behind this and feel strongly about this," White said. "We want to get people talking about whether you can justify the taking of a human life."
KU Pro-Choice Coalition President Sarah Page, Prairie Village senior, said, "Their display is a loud statement. Our signs aren't as big, so we wanted to make a loud statement with our voices."
The anti-abortion display graphically depicted Jews killed in the Holocaust, slaves lynched in America and aborted fetuses. The project drew a comparison between the three groups as victims of genocide.
Sally Puleo, St. Charles, Ill., Junior and vice president of the KU Pro-Choice Coalition, called the display propaganda.

Jaybowl full as Clinton video airs
Students gather to watch testimony in TV lounge
By Melody Ard
Kansan staff writer
The Jaybowl TV room was a popular place yesterday morning, as major networks aired the four-hour video of President Bill Clinton's testimony to special prosecutors.
Jaybowl employee Chris Gelwix,
Lansing senator, said he had seen a
lot of stu-
of students coming and going from the lounge in the Kansas Uni on. through the morning.
“Most of them have c o m b e tween classes," he said. "Some of them stayed an"

watched quite a while."
Gelwix viewed about an hour of the testimony while he worked and said it confirmed the opinions he already had.
"I think this is completely bogus and that he is trying to evade questions and that he is lying," he said. "I think his ratings will drop a little, but not to the point that he will resim."
Allan Cigler, professor of political science, said he doubted the video would have much impact.
"I think the impact depends on
what media, and particularly television, shows on the nightly news," Cigler said.
Cigler said most people's opinions had already been influenced by Kenneth Starr's report
"Of the people who watched the tape and already had opinions, I don't think that it altered them any," Cigler said. "I think that people could be either very sympathetic to Clinton being badgered by the attorney, or they could focus on his struggle with the definition of words."
Tiesha Kelly, Topeka junior, said she thought it could make an impact.
"It's one thing to hear the reports, but it is another to see the person and the body language," Kelley said. "I don't think it's all that appropriate to show the whole thing on television, but I think that it should be available to the public."
Other students said stations airing the video should take an all-or-nothing approach.
"My opinion is to not show the video because we aren't the ones making the decision on impeaching him," Bill Nix, Los Angeles senior, said. "The only reason they are showing it is to get ratings and invade his private life. But if they are going to show it, they should show it in its entirety."

Gay-pride flag burned; victim angry but not scared
By Keith Burner Kansan staff writer
A 3' by-5' flag was burned at about 1 a.m. at Lovegrove's home in the 500 block of Eldridge Street, Lawrence police said. The incident is being investigated as an arson with possible hate motivation, police said.
Michael Lovegrove, a gay Lawrence man, tacked up a new rainbow flag on the side of his home Sunday in a statement of defiance against those who persecute gays.
"It was a very anti-gay statement being made," Lovegrove, 28, said.
The original flag, a symbol of gay pride, was burned early Sunday morning.
Lovegrave said he was out,
and his four roommates
were asleep, when the flag
was burned.
"When I got home, I could see it from the street." Lovegrove said. "I smelled that it had burned, and it freaked
me out because it was on the outside of our house. I ran inside, but it hadn't burned anything."
"I immediately put up a new one, and if they burn that one, we'll put up another one," Lovegrove said. "We'll keep putting them up until we catch the one who did this.
Lovegrove said when the police arrived to investigate the incident, he stressed that everyone who lived in the house was gay, that they had been harassed in the past and that they had every intention of nutting up a new flag.
Marvin Decker, treasurer for Queers and Allies, said harassment against gays was not very common in Lawrence.
flag was adopted by the gay community in the late-1970s as symbol for gay pride.
"We're not going to let people think we'll take this kind of harassment."
"Lawrence is a pretty open and tolerant community," he said.
"It's main meaning is diversity." he said.
"A lot of people can see the flag, and a lot of people know what it means," he said. "A lot of people also don't like gavs."
Decker said, "The rainbow flag is kind of a symbol for the queer community, and it gives a sense of family between queer individuals."
Lovegrove said the flag on his house was very visible and could be seen from a distance.
Lovegrove said the rainbow
Lovegrove said the person who burned the flag might have been trying to scare him and his roommates.
"I wasn't scared by it, I was just pissed," he said. "It was very anti-gay, and I just want to catch those who did it."
Police said the fire consumed about half of the flag before going out. There are no suspects in the incident.
Thieves strike campus lots twice
Pawnshops recruited to help search for thieves
By Kelli Rayborn
Kansan staff writer
A string of thefts from automobiles and vandalism that began Thursday continued Sunday night.
Ten cars were the targets of theft or vandalism Thursday night in the two lots west of Lewis and Hashinger halls.
Several more were reported Sunday night in the same area, said Sgt. Troy Malen of the KU Public Safety Office. Malen said at least three reports of thefts from autos in those lots already had been filed yesterday morning.
Of the 10 reported Thursday, six cars were burglarized and nine were damaged. In Thursdays incidents, $1,810 worth of property was stolen and about $600 in damages was caused.
Totals for Sunday's incidents were not available.
Mailen said the office was working with the Lawrence police, who investigated a series of auto break-ins near campus last week.
"We're looking at some similarities,"
The office is continuing its own investigation.
he said.
In both cases, thieves pulled back window trim or weather strips to gain access to the vehicles, Mailen said.
"Motor vehicles were processed for latent fingerprints and any possible evidence left behind by the perpetrators." Malen said.
Investigators also will keep an eye out for attempts by the thief or thieves to sell stolen goods to local merchants
"The pawnshops work with us hand in hand," Mailen said. "They keep very good logs."
Mailen said the police also kept a log of items bought and sold in local pawnshops. He said stolen property had been recovered through this cooperation in the past.
"Less than one-tenth of one percent of things show up stolen down here," he said.
"Every item that we take in, for loan

Pizza Shuttle driver attacked and robbed
A 25-year-old Pizza Shuttle driver was clubbed in the head and robbed while delivering a pizza Sunday night to the 1700 block of west 24th street, Lawrence police said.
"Two unknown subjects struck the victim in the head with an unknown object," said Lawrence Police Sgt. George Wheeler.
The incident began at 10:45 p.m. when the driver was delivering a pizza to 1732 W. 24th Street. When he got there two men, sitting in front of the house, called to the driver and said they ordered the pizza, but they did not want it.
"The driver turned around to get in his car and one of the suspects hit him on the back of the head and demanded money," Wheeler said. The driver was not hospitalized.
Police said the two robbers chased the driver on foot and yelled for money. The driver threw a billfold full of Pizza Shuttle money behind him and kept running, police said.
Police said they do not know if the suspects lived at the 24th street residence. Pizza Shutte would not release the amount stolen

Angry farmers blockade U.S.Canadian border
SWEETGRASS, Mont. — Farmers and ranchers, angry about federal agriculture and trade policies, blocked southbound truckers at the U.S-Canadian border today.
Several hundred people began the blockade at about 12:30 p.m. after a rally at the windswept border crossing.
Blockade organizers met with U.S. customs officials, who agreed as a matter of safety not to allow trucks hauling Canadian farm products to enter through the border checkpoint.
Protesters left one lane of the two-lane highway into Montana open, allowing other vehicles to pass through. Organizers said the noon-hour protest would last as long as people felt like staying — perhaps into the evening.
The protest took place as Montana stepped up its enforcement of regulations imposed on trucks transporting farm commodities from Canada.
The governor said last week that starting yesterday, Montana officials would accelerate their checks for compliance with regulations dealing with truck weight, livestock health and more.
Pilot considered hero as four die in plane crash
NORTH MYRTLE BEACH, S.C. — The pilot of a small plane was hailed as a hero for guiding his aircraft away from buildings as it crashed to the ground and exploded in flames.
The pilot and all three passengers were killed, and a bystander was iniured.
Officials said the pilot, Henry Sagel, guided the twin-engine Piper Aerostar into a clearing in a wooded area near the Ocean Creek Resort, avoiding surrounding restaurants, homes, hotels and businesses.
The plane developed engine trouble after taking off from Grand Strand Airport and Sagel tried to return to the airport, Horry County Police Lt. Myron Creel said.
The victims, all from York, Pa., where the plane was heading, were identified as Sagel, Leonard Boyer, his brother David Boyer, and Charles Jenson, Deputy Coroner Dan Bellamy said today.
A man walking his dog was burned when the plane burst into flame.
Charles Fred Clark of Fayetteville, N.C., was in critical condition today at the Medical University of South Carolina. His dog suffered slight burns.
KABUL, Afghanistan — Rockets blasted houses in northern Kabul today, killing at least 10 people while residents dug through rubble by another barrage that killed more than 50 in the Afghan capital Sunday.
more than 50 killed as rockets hit Afghanistan
WORLD
Red Cross ambulances roared into the Khair Khanna neighborhood shortly after today's attack, not far from the site of Sunday's rocket strikes. Neighbors used their hands to dig through the debris and reach the wounded.
No one took responsibility for the attacks, but the ruling Taliban religious militia blamed its opponents, positioned north of the capital.
Opposition leaders denied firing the rockets and accused the Taliban of hitting the northern neighborhoods from their positions east and southeast of the city.
Sunday's rocket assault was the worst since the Taliban took control of the capital in September 1996, ousting President Burhanuddin and his military chief Ahmed Shah Massoud.
Hospital officials reported as many as 50 dead in Sunday's attack, but the death toll could be higher because Afghanis bury their dead immediately and seldom take bodies to a hospital.
Two suspects charged in Embassy bombings
DAR ES SALAAM, Tanzania — A Tanzanian and an Egyptian, escorted into a courtroom under heavy guard, were charged yesterday with murder in connection with the U.S. Embassy bombing in Tanzania. If convicted, they would be hanged.
Egyptian Mustafa Mahmoud Said Ahmed and Tanzanian Rashid Saleh Hemed each were charged with 11 counts of murder. The Aug. 7 bombing killed 11 people, all Africans. Resident Magistrate Amiri Maneto said no bail was allowed. A trial date will be set Oct. 5.
Although no details were released in court, local media said traces of chemicals that could have been used to make the bomb had been found in Saleh's home and car. Police, the reports said, also were seeking two unidentified men who had visited Saleh often before the bombing.
No information was available on why charges were filed against Ahmed, who authorities also said was known as Said Ahmed and Saleh Aben Alahales.
Ahmed told the court he could not understand why he was charged because he was not even in Dar es Salaam on the day of the bombing. He said he was in the northern Tanzanian town of Anusha.

Hashinger fire leaves students out in the rain
Early yesterday morning a small fire in Hashinger Hall left residents out in the rain for more than an hour.
The fire began in Hashinger's mechanical room about 3 a.m. Smoke alarms sounded soon afterward.
Phil Garito, associate director in charge of maintenance at the department of student housing, said the fire began because of a burning transformer.
Hashinger will not have any air conditioning for about a week, Garito said. The system will be shut off until it receives a new transformer.
After talking to the Lawrence fire department, Garito said a pipe rusted through or broke and shot water into the transformer. The transformer shorted out and began to smoke, which set off the fire alarm.
He said officials were assuming the same water that started the fire also put it out.
Garito said this type of incident was rare.
"Fortunately all the systems responded the way they are designed to," Garito said.
Hashinger resident, Keir Eliasoph, Great Neck, N.Y., sophomore, was upset about the inconvenience.
He said many of the students were directed to Ellsworth Hall to wait and get out of the rain. Eliasoph chose to go to The Java Break, 17 E. Seventh St., with a friend instead.
"I missed my first class because I couldn't get back to sleep," Eliasoph said. "It was ridiculous."

More KU students should use Park-and-Ride busing program
When a quality program such as Park and Ride is offered at the University of Kansas, more students should take advantage of its benefits. Only 199 of the 300 available passes have been sold. And because KU on Wheels sells the same amount of passes as there are parking spaces, students are guaranteed a place to park.
The advantages of Park and Ride are extensive. Students do not have to spend 30 minutes hunting for a parking spot. Instead, they park in Lot E of the Lied Center, and a bus picks them up. Nicole Skalla, transportation coordinator, said
More than 100 permits are left out of the 300 being made available.
that the buses circulate six to eight times per hour, getting students to class within 10 minutes, which is much quicker than for students who park at a campus lot and walk to class.
While the weather is warm and sunny, most students do not mind taking extra time to walk to class. However, soon it will be colder, icier and, therefore, more difficult
to walk to campus, Park and Ride eliminates some worries of slipping on ice on the way to class because the buses drop students off in front of their buildings, Skalla said.
Skalla said that the Park-and-Ride program targets commuters, out-of-state students and non-traditional students. However, off-campus traditional students should consider jumping on the Park-and-Ride bandwagon as well. With more than 100 passes left, students should make the change from parking passes to Park and Ride while the opportunity is available.

SLAB program deserves recognition
College-age voters traditionally turn out in the fewest numbers at the polls. A few campus organizations and community businesses are taking measures that hopefully will change that.
Young Democrats, Student Senate Legislative Awareness Board and three local businesses deserve a Paton-the-Back for their involvement in registering voters.
Bob Johnson. Get Out to Vote coordinator for Douglas County, said Young Democrats had registered about 60 voters every Saturday since the door-to-door campaign started nearly two months ago. The organization began registering students in campus housing.
Student Senate Legislative Awareness Board is working to not only register voters, but also to raise voter awareness. Korb Maxwell, legislative director, said the board would set up voter registration tables in front of Wescoe during the second or third week of October.
The Student Legislative Awareness Board plans to register voters at Wescoe Beach.
The board also is working to bring gubernatorial candidates Tom Sawyer and Governor Bill Graves as well as other candidates seeking election in November to speak at the University. Maxwell is in the process of publishing a non-partisan voter guide for students, including candidates' positions, as well as locations to vote on campus.
The National Voter Registration Act has made it easier to register voters. The county election officers used to be responsible for publicly printing the dates, times and locations where voters could register. Now, trained citizens can register voters.
Although these simplifications have made it easier for anyone wanting to get
involved, it also takes some of the responsibility from the election officers. Patty James, county clerk, said the county did not participate officially in voter registration drives. People needing to register must contact the County Clerk's office in person or by mail.
However, several Lawrence businesses have filled the void of countyinitiated drives. Love Garden Sound, Kinder Care and Cottonwood Inc. have made their businesses places to register voters on their own accord.
Getting college students to vote is extremely important to the welfare of the University. Lobbyists in the Kansas Legislature must be able to show that college students are voting. Otherwise, legislators may overlook our needs because of our lack of involvement.
Organizations and businesses raising political involvement among the least-voting demographic should be commended for their efforts.

Starr's report not hot but can be entertaining
S o. I was cruising the Internet looking for porn the other night, when I came across a link that read "Hot News" (in shade of red, of course).
the appropriate slide 8.
Upon clicking the link, I was brought to the complete text of Kenneth Starr's report to Congress.

Hot stuff
Anyway, I'm reading the "report" and taking notes, it occurs to me that my editor always asks for more columns about newsworthy political items.
P
However, I was not sure a detailed account of
I commend the use of trust, or the lack thereof, as a deterrent to any early climactic encounters, but I do believe they waited too long to finally consummate their relationship.
exactly how President Clinton put the moves on Monica Lewinsky would be considered a journalistic priority until I saw that the Kansas City Star, and many other major newspapers across the country, had published the findings.
Additionally, the story falls into the same plot traps as most romantic works do. Of course, I can see the need for some animosity between the two characters.
Overall, I'd rate Kenneth "Sticky Fingers" Starr's report as a mediocre rendition of an overdone love story, with no good focus and a hummer of an ending.
Although I understand the need to keep the story simple, one would expect the president character to have more resources available for his private meetings.
"Well," I thought to myself, "if this is political journalism, I can handle it."
I only wish there had been some pictures to go with the text. What about some personal commentary from Clinton? You know, chatting about his encounters the next day by the water cooler:
Bonus points for the kink factor, though. Not only was the cigar scene intriguing, but the use of telephones as an aphrodisiac really excited me.
"Sure, I didn't think a whole lot was going to happen. We didn't know each other that well and had only talked briefly over a slice of pizza, but I gave her some line about 'acknowledging that there was a chemistry between us,' and she went for it."
Of course, he was supposed to be creating a case for impeachment. You know, providing the public with a document worthy of political discussion and journalistic coverage.
"So, we're kissing, right? Okay, I'm cool with it, and then — get this — she asks me to 'stimulate (her) manually in the genital area.' Whoa! Such naughty talk from such a nice girl."
I guess the standards for congressional reports have lowered during the years. All I really know is that I need to get an agent, because for $4 million, I can write smut much better than Starr.
If I'm reading trashy erotica, I want sex, and I want it early. None of this dilly-dally with oral pleasure and manual stimulation without orgasm. I found it highly unbelievable that there could be nine rendezvous before any stains were made.
It just seems to me that Starr could have found a more tasteful way of informing Congress that Clinton fooled around.
Or:
Should one seek good erotic literature (wink, wink). I would not recommend the Starr Report. Rather. I see the independent counsel's text to be more along the lines of
Sure, there's plenty of kissing, breast fondling and oral sex to keep the average reader's interest, but let's be honest, the setting is a little lax. Who wants to read about repeated rendezvous in somebody's office? Airplanes, faraway islands, lonely highway roads — these are the standard settings to which today's erotica must adhere.

My dad was robbed not long ago.
He was filling up the car at a gas station near our house in Okla-
hane City. Our little dog Teffey was watch-
noma City. Our little dog from the back seat. A man came up from behind, grabbed Dad, demanded his wallet and threatened to cut him with a knife.
It wasn't a bad part of town. It was a major intersection near decent neighborhoods. It wasn't late at night. It was an otherwise cheerful Saturday morning.
PLEASE DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE.

My dad wasn't driving a sports car or wearing a
It surprises me and scares me that it happened. I'm used to hearing about robberies here in Lawrence. But back home, even though Oklahoma City is a bigger city, it seemed safe — at least the parts that I went to seemed safe.
Rolex. He's just the normal dad-type with an old gray Crown-Vic and probably was wearing jeans and a casual shirt.
Maybe it just felt safer because it's home. Or maybe I just pay more attention to the news in Lawrence. Or maybe I just can't believe that my dad is another person who reported a robbery on the police blotter.
Whatever the crime statistics are, it scares me that criminals have the audacity to hold up someone on a sunny Saturday morning. It scares me that no one was around to see it happen until the crook already was running off. Most of all, it scares me that my dad could have gotten hurt.
I could use this space to rant about tougher sentencing, about making prisons more like prison and less like a stay at the Hilton, about the evils of drug use and about how addiction can turn you into a deprived criminal, or even about why everyone should make their parents learn
to use a handgun.
I could rant about all those things, but instead I ask you to think for a moment about the important stuff — family, friends and appreciating their presence. All that mushy stuff we normally say with preprinted greeting cards during holidays. But I'm through just signing my name at the bottom of someone else's words.
From now on, I'm going to make an effort to say "I love you" at the end of my phone calls to Mom or Dad or my brother. It's not enough to just tell myself that they already know. I'm going to tell them again.
With all the distractions in our lives today, I think we could all use a little reality check, and we'll probably all get a big one as a surprise sooner or later. I just had mine.
I'm going to tell my friends that I'm glad to have them as such. I'm going to tell my friends back home that I miss them. I'm going to keep in contact with them and not wait until our class reunion to see them again.
Let's hope those terrible things don't happen, but do yourself a favor and think for a minute — are you sure you've told everyone you care about everything you want them to hear?
I don't know about you, but the next time I'm home, I'm going to spend that extra minute hugging my dad.
You don't know when yours will come or who will be affected. We can only hope that it's not too serious of a scare and that no one love gets hurt.
Your best friend could die in a car crash. Your mom could develop cancer. Or maybe while crossing the street you could come close to getting hit by a speeding truck. Life is a fragile piece of glass on a precarious shelf edge. One slam of a door, and it's gone.

Feedback
Protesters deserve credit for response
I'd like to applaud the Center for Bio-Ethical Reform for provoking a whirwind of discussion on campus already. Sunday evening was the first
time that I've ever seen a group of seven guys sitting in Mrs. E's actively discussing social policy, ethics, and morality. Whether or not you agree with the position of the demonstrators, the parallels that the group has drawn demand discussion.
I would implore students not to resort to violence or hate-speech this week but to express your opinions by engaging in discourse with your peers.

Date rape speech begins Greek Week
Other events include raffle local service
By Sarah Hale
Kansan staff writer
A speaker on date rape will kick off the 1998 Greek Week events tonight.
Katie Koestner, an expert on and counselor about rape, will talk about her own experience with date rape at 8 p.m. at the Lied Center to raise awareness about the subject.
Koestner was a victim of date rape while she was in college. One evening while Koestner was out with her friends, a male friend raped her after he had been drinking.
Koestner has been to more than 500 schools since 1991 telling students about awareness and prevention.
Counselors will be available at the Lied Center after the speech to talk with students, said Wes Simons, assistant director of greek programs.
During the rest of the week, many fraternities and sororites will participate in various events to promote student unity and to raise money for charity.
"There aren't a lot of events that bring together the entire greek community," Simons said. "This is one way to unify them."
Tomorrow, all greek members can participate in a dinner exchange at various chapter houses beginning at 5:30 p.m. Benton Kelly, co-chair of Greek Week, said the exchange was one way the members could get to know each other better.

The community service aspect of the week will begin Thursday. From 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., students can donate canned foods or they can purchase raffle tickets at the Kansas Union and at Wescoe Hall.
The raffle ticket profits will be used later to help build a house in Lawrence. The project, "The House that 'Hawks/Greeks Built,' is in connection with the Oprah Winfrey Habitat for Humanity houses.
Greek members' attendance at the week's events also will be included in the competition.
The Greek Olympics, an annual event, will crown one greek team as the best in non-competitive sports.
From 3 to 6 p.m. Friday,
dozens of men and women will
be throwing water balloons
and playing beach volleyball on the
Allen Field House front lawn.
Greek Week will wrap-up Saturday with a garage sale at 8 a.m. at the Kappa Kappa Gamma house. The merchandise was donated by Greek chapters, and the proceeds will go toward the construction project.
Law, Business schools get connected
New computers to help students with coursework
By Chris Borniger Special to the Kansan
Classes in the Schools of Law and Business will be able to get on the information superhighway once renovations to Green and Summerfield Halls are completed.
Following a computerization trend in universities across the country, both schools will make it easier for KU students to use a laptop computer to take notes and access information for class work through ethernet connection, which allows quicker information access than regular connections.
"Today, especially in business but also in all other areas, you have to be comfortable with computers," said Gordon Fitch, professor of business and director of technology for the School of Business. "It's needed as a job skill."
Three rooms in Green Hall and two in Summerfield are still
undergoing renovation, though Summerfield already has two computer classrooms in use.
The cost of each classroom is approximately $100,000, a portion of which is paid for by the Crumbling Classrooms project, a state-funded program to renovate and improve existing buildings. Private contributors have financed the remaining costs.
The ethernet connection allows students to download data through a network at speeds up to 10 megabits per second. Standard dial-up internet connections are limited to about 56 kilobits per second.
Fitch, however, said there was great potential for the updated classrooms to help instructors and students.
"We'll have instantaneous communication," he said. "Faculty can assign more work over the network or the Internet. For the students, now there are a lot of research opportunities that weren't available before. I'm really excited about it."
Additionally, one of the new rooms in Summerfield will operate as a video classroom, which business classes will use for video
conferences.
"We'll have the potential to communicate with the rest of the world." Fitch said.
The renovation also will result in some curriculum changes. For example, officials are planning to make BUS 368, Statistics, a computer-based class.
Fitch, who leads a discussion class on the Internet, said technology already had an effect on his classes.
"It's much easier to be able to show something to students than trying to just describe things," he said. "It really expands the discussion more, and makes it more engaging. And it saves me time, so I can teach a better course."
As instructors assign an increasing amount of homework that requires access to a computer or the Internet, two large universities — the University of Florida and Virginia Tech—now require undergraduate and graduate students to own computers. Wake Forest University distributes laptops to all incoming students, though they pay $3,000 more in tuition each year.
Neither the School of Business nor the School of Law will mandate
"It's much easier to be able to show something to students than trying to just describe things."
Gordon Fitch
Business school director of technology
that students buy computers yet.
"We don't require our students to buy them, but we strongly encourage them to do so," said Rick Whitmore, technology coordinator for the School of Law. "Our philosophy is that the practice of law doesn't happen in just one place anymore. We're trying to train students to be connected and use those resources available to them."
Chris Merritt, Overland Park first-year law student, said he planned to take his laptop to the renovated rooms, but did not know what to expect.
"I can't see myself surfing the net while class is going on," he said. "I probably won't use it that much during class except to access Lexis-Nexus."

Deaf Club brings awareness to students
THE LID CENTER OF PHILADELPHIA
By Pallavi Agarwal
Kansan staff writer
Suzette Garay calls herself the minority of minorities.
"As far as I know, I am the only deaf student at KU pursuing a Ph.D," said Garay, a Milwaukee, Wis., graduate student. "Being Hispanic and deaf, and knowing Spanish, English and American sim language. I belong to a unique culture."
This week is Deaf Awareness Week, a national week for bringing together deaf and hearing people and focusing on deaf issues.
The KU Deaf Club has organized a window display and booths for the event in the Kansas Union.
Members of the club will be stationed at the boots on the fourth floor of the Union from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. tomorrow and Thursday. The boots will provide information on deaf issues, sign language and services outside of the University.
The KU Deaf Club has 23 members, 17 of whom are hearing. Several of the members are sign language interpreters or students interested in learning sign language.
Jennifer Cavanaugh, Prairie Village graduate student, is a hearing member of the club. She joined to practice her sign language and learn more about deaf culture.
"I think many people tend to view deaf individuals as people who cannot hear and therefore use 'English as pictures in the air' to communicate," she said. "That is definitely not the case. Deaf culture is a crucial part of our society."
For the deaf members of the club, the opportunity to interact and socialize with other deaf individuals is invaluable, said Garay, the club's treasurer.
Beth Yoder, vice president of the club, said there were few opportunities to interact with other deaf students on campus.
While many of the hearing members of the club feel at ease with deaf people, some on campus don't, Garay said.
"If a person is not culturally sensitive, communication is a problem. I have had problems a few times while buying tickets at the SUA office," she said. "At the end of the week, you get exhausted with the struggles."
Tessie Barrett, a Scott City senior who is a hearing member of the club, offered a few tips on how to communicate with deaf people.
Others are matters of finding common interests such as renting movies that are close captioned and turning the map light on in the car while driving at night, she said.
"Most deaf people can read lips and speak, so all it takes on our part is the presence of mind to talk normally so they can see our faces," she said.
The University has between 25 and 30 deaf and hearing impaired students, said Lorna Zimmer, director of Services for Students with Disabilities.
This semester, the office has appointed two full-time interpreters to help students.
"There are so many different varieties of sign language and hourly student interpreters are much newer to the profession," she said. "These full-time interpreters have better training and provide continuity to students."
I am very happy to be here.

Kansas Research and Education Network features a cable modem Internet connection, which is faster than traditional phone-line modems. The various universities provide links to the Internet. The connection provides customers with direct access to the KANREN network.

The University of Kansas now has closer connections with Kansas State University and the University of Kansas Medical Center.
A second Internet connection through the Sunflower Datavision network and the Kansas Research and Education Network was completed last week.
Lindy Eakin, associate provost for support services, said the connection would cost the University between $250,000 and $500,000.
KANREN is a consortium of colleges, universities, school districts and other groups organized for communication purposes.
The connection would allow students and faculty to research and test technology at a higher speed, Eakin said.
"This second highway was built primarily for the universities," Eakin said. "It was built for the use of research applications that can be developed and used by future generations."
The new connection shortens the path that data travels from one KANREN site to another.
we have been working on this because we are trying to use the connection to promote research at the University," said Jerry Niebaum, director of academic computing services and assistant vice chancellor for information services.
"With the new technology, we will be able to do large-scale computer simulations of the formation of structure at the University," said Adrian Melott, professor of physics and astronomy.
Niebaum said the University promised to pay a yearly $25,000 maintenance fee and to spend $500,000 upgrading the local network. Niebaum said he thought the University would spend more than $1 million this year in upgrading the network on campus.
The KANREN network is part of the Great Plains Network, which will link Kansas with North Dakota, South Dakota, Oklahoma, Nebraska and Arkansas.
In the next two years, the Great Plains Network plans to spend $3 million on computer connections, Niebaum said.

'Wolf Child' looks at interaction
Play depicts how couple tries to tame lone wolf and learn about others

The play runs from Sept. 21 to 26 at Crafton-Prever Theater in Murphy Hall. Photo by Augustus Anthony Piazza/KANSAN
Muller plays a wolf named Joseph in The University Theatre for Young People's production of "Wolf Child — The Correction of Joseph" this week. The play will be presented to children in grades four, five and six of the Douglas County and Lawrence schools at 1 p.m. every day this week at Crafton-Prever Theatre.
This is Muller's first experience performing for children.
The public performance is at 7 p.m. Saturday at the theater.
"After doing this show, I think it is a positive experience to act for children," he said.
The play, written by Edward Mast in 1993, depicts the story of Joseph, who grew up in the jungle living with a family of wolves.
When his wolf mother dies, Joseph is adopted by a minister and his wife who try to correct his wild behavior.
Throughout the play, characters learn how to live with others and respect their differences.
The play was directed by Jeanne Klein, associate professor of theatre and film. Besides acting, several KU students were responsible for designing the costumes, scenes and lighting of the play.
Heather Myers, Lawrence senior, designed different artifacts to characterize Joseph's
struggle to adapt in human civilization.
Muller said. "In the beginning, when I am brought to civilization, I cannot tell the human beings apart, so they are all wearing masks. Eventually, I start to recognize them, so they start to show their faces."
Muller said he spent the summer researching wolves. He played with one to learn how to walk and behave like the wild animal.
Ruth Gennrich, director of public education at
the Natural History Museum, also helped Muller and other members of the cast adapt their human movements to be more wolf like.
"I showed them how wolves hold their ears, tails and lips," Genrich said. "These movements tell a lot of what they think and their intentions."
Tickets are available at KU box offices and cost $3 for students, $6 for the public and $5 for senior citizens.
Professor to travel to Eastern Europe
Frost Mason to visit KU partner faculty, students, programs
By Carolyn Mollett
Kanson staff writer
Sally Frost Mason, dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, will spend 16 days working in three countries in Eastern Europe.
Frost Mason left this morning for a biology conference in Prague, a city in the Czech
Republic. From there, she will travel to Ukraine and then to Russia. She will visit KU partner programs and KU students and faculty in those countries.
"I am especially interested in visiting with scholars and administrators in these countries and asking them for their perspectives on life in these countries after the fall of the Soviet Union," Frost Mason said.
She will return to the United States on Oct. 9, and she said she would probably be back on campus the next day.

spring, but her schedule was still uncertain. Frost Mason said she may remain in Ukraine a few extra days and return early if the political situation in Russia deteriorated. But she said she thought that would be unlikely.
Maria Carlson, director of Russian and Eastern European Studies, said she had spoken with colleagues in Russia about Frost Mason's safety. She said she did not think the dean would be in any danger because the country had calmed down since Yevgeny Primakov was elected Prime Minister.
"Things are stable in Moscow and St. Petersburg," Carlson said. Frost Mason said she had no concerns for her safety in the Czech Republic or Ukraine.
The first stop in Prague will be from Sept. 23 to 27 for a biology conference sponsored by the European Society for Pigment Cell Research.
She also will meet with professors who teach for the KU-Livv Summer Language and Area Studies Workshop.
After the conference, Frost Mason will spend Sept. 28-30 in Lviv, Ukraine. There she will meet with Ivan Vakarchuk, rektor of the Ivan Franko State University.
On Oct. 1, Viktor Krevs, director of the Ukrainian Language Courses, will accompany the dean

"I would the dean to see for herself the results of the hard work done by REES on behalf of KU and the people of Kansas," ElHodir said.
The final leg of Frost Mason's trip will be from Oct. 6-8 in St. Petersburg where she will visit St. Petersburg State University, where the University of Kansas has had a Russian language program for more than 30 years.
Frost Mason will meet with Vsevolod Rogalsky, head of the Benois Institute which is host to the University of Kansas' new summer art history program at the Hermitage Museum.
The trip is funded by the University of Kansas, REES and Frost Mason.

Larry Northrop, Lawrence graduate student and local furniture entrepreneur, is well-traveled. So is his product.
Northrop's company, HomeStyle, 844 Massachusetts St., sells furniture recycled from upscale hotels, such as couches, mattresses and artwork.
Northrop, owner of the two level, 8,000 square-foot store which opened on July 4, attended the University as an undergraduate and is enrolled in the M.B.A. program.
As a student, Northrop and his brother did maintenance work in the local rental properties his father owned. They noticed the student life could take heavy toll on furniture.
From that observation, HomeStyle was born.
It was his brother's brain storm. Northrop said.
After Northrop returned to Lawrence after a one-year, 132-city world tour in 1996, HomeStyle began to take shape.
"What students need is cheap furniture," he said, and I agreed." Northrop said.
Connections that Northrop cultivated from his years as an account manager with Sprint paid off in starting the business, he said.
Northrop purchases furniture from an independent contracting firm that travels around the country remodeling hotels, he said. Most of HomeStyle's current stock once furnished a Marriott Courtyard hotel in Maryland. Acquiring furniture from a Ritz-Carlton and two Holiday Inn hotels is a possibility, Northrop said.
The furniture comes to him in good condition and does not need refurbishing, he said.
HomeStyle is stocked with sofa beds, lamps. Paid Advertisement
The store delivers to Lawrence locations for $10. Delivery to other areas is negotiable.
$10. Delivery to other areas is negotiable.
Aaron Kabler, Lawrence senior, was Home-Style's only employee until last week. He made deliveries and ran the store when Northrop was out.
"It was tiring," Kabler said. "Business has been pretty good even though we haven't done any advertising yet."
Northrop sells to businesses and non-profit organizations as well as students. He expects business to increase when the University students move back to Lawrence for the fall semester.
Sumy Lan, Lawrence resident, browsed through HomeStyle on a recent afternoon.
"It's pretty interesting," she said. "Especially since it’s a college-student town."
Northrop said that he considered launching his business in a much larger space in Kansas City, Mo., but that the prospect of a student audience was appealing.
"Lawrence isn't as big as Kansas City, but there's just as much market," he said.
Massachusetts Street's character also lured him back to his hometown, he said.
"I'm kind of at the corner of the right world here," he said, sitting at a table in the store's front window. "It's like sitting in my office here and watching the world go by."

The map on Jayhawk Boulevard is outdated and worn. The yellow spot represents a spot which is worn off the guide. Other problems with the map are outdated names of buildings, such as Hoch Auditoria for Budig Hall, and the complete lack of buildings planned after about 1993, such as the new Alumni Center.

SUA gallery opens next to box office
The new Student Union Activities art gallery opens to the public today in the Kansas Union, next to the SUA box office.
The gallery was temporarily moved to the Union's fourth floor lobby when Commerce Bank and the KU Card Center moved into its old location earlier this year.
Catherine Weis, SUA fine arts coordinator, said the Kansas City Camera Show, the current display, had been moved to the new gallery.
Campus maps misleading
Any student is allowed to display art in the gallery.
She said the new gallery was smaller and not in students' direct path but that the quality of the art had not changed.
Two older maps are worn down remain out of date

Weis said students have displayed everything from pencil drawings to electronic art.

Kansan staff writer
Newcomers to the University of Kansas often have trouble finding their way around campus, and two campus maps may not help them.
The maps, which detail the location of campus buildings and streets, are worn down and lack newer additions to the campus.
One of the maps is located on Jayhawk Boulevard between Lippincott Hall and Dyche Hall, and the other is near Templin Hall.
Tom Hutton, director of University Relations, said he was unsure which department was responsible for maintaining the signs.
"It is probably just one of those things that slips through the cracks," he said.
Hutton said he contacted several University faculty members, and all of them were unsure of the age of the maps or why they had not been updated.
"We didn't know whose responsibility the maps were. But that doesn't really matter — we need to get them updated," he said.
As to the age of the maps, some clues are hidden within the sign. The maps display a proposed construction site for the Lied Center, which opened in September 1993.
Hutton said the University had planned to construct the Lied Center for many years before it opened, which led him to believe that the maps could be 20 years old or older.
"Most buildings don't change over time, but we have newer buildings and some that are planned to be built," he said. "We need to get a handle on the maps so people who come to campus won't be confused."
Rodger Oroke, facilities management director, said he would be involved in the process to
replace the signs.
"The technology that is available now will probably enable us to update them in short order." Oroke said.
He said that although Facilities Management was busy with other projects, it would begin the replacement process soon. The process will include identifying other out-of-date maps, finding the best way to produce new maps and replacing the signs.
Wilson said she also referred people to a 3-D map on the fourth floor of the Kansas Union.
"This is one of those issues where it's always good to have a reminder." Oroke said. "It impacts the public in finding their way across campus."
KU Ambassador Chris Wilson Emporia junior, said she never pointed out the maps when giving campus tours to prospective students.
"If they want to see where a certain building is, we give them a campus map that is updated," she said.

Volleyball team plots havoc for Oklahoma
By Laura Bokonkroger
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas volleyball team hopes its match against Oklahoma tomorrow night will be a repeat of the 1994 Big 12 Conference opener.
That was the last time the Jayhawks won their first game of the season against a Big 12 opponent.
The Jayhawks leave today for a 7 p.m. match tomorrow in Norman, Okla., and team members said it was a new beginning for them.
Outside hitter Mary Beth Albrecht said the Jayhawks had to wipe the slate clean.
"We're 9-2 right now, and that's a great record," Albrecht said. "But
we start over in the conference. We have to move on and take the confidence of that record with us."
But it is not just confidence that the Jayhawks are feeling.
PETER PARKS

Bechard: His team opens the conference season on the road.
thought they had something to prove.
"It's a natural human reaction," Bechard said. "Anytime when your own expectations are higher than what everyone else's are, you feel like you have to prove them wrong."
The Jayhawks are coming off a second place finish in the Jayhawk Classic last weekend — and a loss to St. Louis University in the championship match.
Setter Laura Rohde said that the

loss left a bad taste in their mouths and that the Jayhawks had to move on.
"We're excited to start the Big 12," Rohde said. "We have played exceptionally well, and we are hoping to turn some heads."
Where: Norman, OKa.
The Sooners lead the series 37-10 and are on a three-match winning streak against the Jayhawks.
Kansas hasn't won in Norman since Oct. 26, 1990.
Oklahoma, picked to finish eighth in the Big 12, has struggled at home. The Sooners, 5-5, have lost all four of their matches in Norman. Their most recent loss came from the University of Arkansas-Little Rock.
"I think they haven't determined their complete lineup yet," Bechard said. "They lost some important senior leadership from last year, and it takes a while to fill those voids, find those players who will step up and make the plays at critical times."
Despite Oklahoma's mediocre record, Bechard said Kansas was not overlooking the Sooners.
But that is not the history the Jayhawks want to remember.
Last season, the Jayhawks lost both matches against the Sooners three games to none.
It happened in 1994, and it was the last time the Jayhawks won their conference opener.
imstead, they would like to recall a different meeting with the Sooners.
Recruit commits to'Hawks
And sometimes history does repeat itself.
Collison will come to Kansas instead of going to Duke
By Erin Thompson
Kansan sportswriter
For the second time in three weeks an official recruiting trip turned into a commitment to play at the University of Kansas by a preo basketball standout.
Collison, a 6-foot-9 forward from Iowa Falls (Iowa) High School, visited Lawrence on his official recruiting visit with
Iowa recruit Nick Collison told Kansas coach Roy Williams Sunday night that he planned to be a Jayhawk after Collison visited the campus last weekend.
the goal of trying to decide between Kansas and Duke University. He had visited Duke a week earlier.
Duke coach Mike Kryzewski received word from Collison Sunday night that Collison would not be a Blue Devil.
Collison's parents met him in Lawrence
for the visit and said they were pulling for him to choose the Jayhawks.
Collison's father and high school coach, Dave Collison, said before the visit that he and Nick's mother wanted Nick to play for the Jayhawks because the University was located close enough to their home for them to be able to come see Nick play, and he could come home some weekends, which would not be possible if he went to Duke.
Bob Gibbons, recruiting analyst, has listed Collison as the No.2 prospect in the nation. Collison averaged 19 points and 10 rebounds last year for his high school team and played for a USA Basketball Junior World championship team last summer.
Dave Collison said Nick was a good passer, handled the ball well and had a good defensive game. Growing up with a basketball coach for a father probably did not hurt his game, either.
"He's been a student of the game for a long time," Dave Collison said. "A lot of college coaches have said he has a good presence on the court. He really understands what to do and when to do it."
Dave Collision said Nick would work well with the Kansas program.
"He's exactly the kind of player that will fit it," he said. "He's played the motion offense and man-to-man defense in high school."
"A lot of college coaches have said he has a good presence on the court."

Kansas has filled two scholarships with oral commitments from Collison and Andrew Gooden, a 6-10 forward from El Cerrito (Calf.) High School.
Both Gooden and Collison will officially become Jayhawks after they sign a national letter of intent in November and qualify academically. Roy Williams cannot comment on Collison or any other recruits until they actually sign a letter of intent in two months.
The Jayhawks have one scholarship left to fill and are focusing on Kirk Hinrich, a 6-3 guard from Sioux City, Iowa. Hinrich has an official visit scheduled for Oct. 3.
Duke did not come away from the weekend empty-handed. The Blue Devils received a commitment from Casey Sanders on Sunday night.

"It was exciting to get that first rushing touchdown." Curry said. "I had a lot of friends and family here. I just really felt like I helped contribute to the win and to the team."
After the three starting running backs, David Winbush, Julius Bruce and Mitch Bowles, each scored a touchdown, Curry entered the game.
His first rush, a sevenyard gain, came early in the second quarter and was quickly followed by his first touchdown, a 23-yard run, with 8:25 left in the first half.
Curry's final touchdown came at the 11:15 mark of the fourth quarter when he ran six yards and increased the Kansas score to 63-14.
Although it was not the first game Curry played, he said it was nice to actually get a chance to play his position.
and I feel I really help there," Curry said. "But it's always fun for a running back to actually run the ball to get the touchdowns."
But the touchdowns were not the most important aspect of the game — it was the win.
he said.
"It's just good to get your first win under your belt,"
And with one win on their record, the Jayhawks plan to take what they learned — how to have fun — into Saturday's game and apply it at Alabama-Birmingham.
"This might give us some more confidence for the next game," Curry said. "Maybe we might be able to have a little more fun."

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Sept. 22): Today is an 8
You were born right on the cusp of Virgo and Libra. Don't be alarmed if you're more ambivalent than usual, especially in October. Catch up on your reading in December, and make a shrewd move the first part of January. Fix up your house in late January and early February. Try not to play favorites in March to avoid problems. Rely on a friend's experience in May to make a wise purchase. Be bold to achieve a goal in August.
Aries (March 21-April 19):Today is a 7.
Someone's trying to tell you what to do; it could even be someone you usually order around. How can this be? Well, it's part of the coming transit of the sun through Libra. With the moon also in Libra, people with Libra tendencies will be empowered to act.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 5.
Your vacation is ending, but that's OK. You should be in the mood to work by now. Today's assignment includes lots of details and probably lots of paperwork You'll need to communicate effectively and precisely.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 6.
There are still things to do, especially at home. Soon,
you'll lose interest in practical matters and just want to
play. So, while you're in the mood, finish up old projects.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is a 5.
You may be starting to look at your house with a slightly critical eye. Are things just the way you want them? Maybe you'd like to add a room or a new color scheme for the kitchen.
Leo (Julv 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 7.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 7.
Today, you're able to remember information very well you study, talk to your friends and figure out the bottom line. Learn to become fabulously wealthy. You'll be wonderful as a rich person.
Virao (Aug. 23-Sept. 22: Today is a 5.
Virgin August 29, 2017 12:54 Today is 8:36
Financial issues are the theme that's growing more prevalent. The Libra moon in the first couple days of this week brings it into focus; then the sun goes into Libra today, magnifying the effect. That's OK. This is one of your best subjects.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 7.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 5.
you're digging around through closets, the attic and the back storeroom, whipping things into shape. When a Libra gets on a cleaning kick, watch out. Not only is everything going to be organized, but it's going to be beautiful.
Sappittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21: Today is a 7.
You're working together with your friends on some sort of cleanup project. It could be cleaning up misuse understandings. Or it could literally be cleaning out the storeroom or your work area.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) During the last month or so, the sun has been transiting Virgo in your solar 10th house of success. You've had a lot of chances to advance in your career and, hopefully, you have. Now the time for celebration is near.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18); Today is a 5.
Capricorn [Dec. 22-Jan. 19]: Today is a 5. Information you've been gathering should be useful today, insights gained in recent travels will let you make a wise choice. A job that seemed impossible now looks doable. You may still require a little more education.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 5.
You're getting urges to try something new. So, why not do it on purpose? Instead of following a whim, why not follow a plan? This is an excellent day to write one up. You don't have to do it down to the tiniest detail yet. Just get the outline solid. The details will fill themselves in as you go along.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 5.
C
Today's assignment requires agility and quick action, and you'll have to follow an agenda. If you haven't already prepared one, do that. You're venturing out beyond your routine and spending a lot more time there. The coming phase will be creative but not very structured, so today put in a structure you can rely on.

Big 12 shows promise still has a ways to go
Roll out the red carpet, the Big 12 has arrived
For the first time in the league's three-year history, our conference flexed it's muscle and looked comparable to other big-time conferences, such as the ACC, SEC and Big 10.
But let's not get ahead of ourselves, the Big 12 is not there vet.

them when a defender blocked a 39-yard field-goal attempt with four seconds remaining in the game.
If you think back to the previous Saturday, North Carolina State upset No. 2 Florida State 24-7.
Can you believe it? Baylor, which is probably the weakest team in the conference, beat a ranked team — a ranked team that beat FSU.
The Oklahoma State Cowboys literally ran 10. No Mississippi State out of town. The Cowboys rumbled for 360 yards against a defense that had only been allowing 72 yards a game. Not too shabby.
And before I could even say, "Missouri fans are trash," Iowa State posted its first shutout since Sept. 29, 1984, against a less-than-spectacular Ball State team.
Nonetheless, a shutout is a shutout.
Behind a strong defense and running back Darren Davis, the Cyclones compiled 333 vards rushing.
The team now has won two in a row.
Last week it beat a tough Iowa team.
Look out, the Cyclones are a lot better than people think.
What can I say about Kansas State? For the first time this year the Wildcats played a legitimate football team and dominated.
However, Kansas State has yet to play a game on the road. Six of its first seven games are at home. Next
week, the Wildcats go back to playing northwest-southern-directional teams with a matchup against Northeast Louisiana — in Manhattan, of course. Oh, can I go, PLEASE?
Some thought last Saturday would be the Wildcats' first test of the season. It was not. The game on October 10 against Colorado in Boulder will tell us whether or not they're K-Staters or K-Fakers.
Don't hold this against me, but I'm about to say something positive about the Missouri football program. Keep in mind the team beat the Jayhawks with class. The low-class fans are the people we should dislike.
For three-plus quarters, the Tigers played competitively with No. 1 Ohio State. The Tigers battled hard until quarterback Corby Jones got butterfingers and cost them the game.
I give credit to coach Larry Smith for putting a tough team like Ohio State on the Tigers' schedule. That decision can only help Missouri. Last year's match, although not close, prepared the Tigers for tough competition.
Remember the 'Tigers lost to Nebraska in OT because of a fluke play but controlled most of the game.
The Tigers are a more dangerous team than the Wildcats.
Last, but not least, the Jayhawks collected their first victory of the season. It really was fun to watch KU's All-American offense go to work on the overmatched Redbirds from Illinois State.
It reminded me of a Sony PlayStation football game I have, in which one-play drives for 80-plus yards are a regular occurrence.
Hopefully, this will build team confidence and the roll will continue. I know it will, because I'm the leader of the bandwagon that everyone is getting on, right?
It's hard to imagine a weekend during which the Big 12 gets more quality performances from conference teams than this week. The Big 12, the league envisioned has finally arrived, at least for one weekend.
Tony Pacheco is an Olathe senior in English.
Conference leaders rush to showdown
DES MOINES, Iowa — When it comes to running the football, few are doing it better than the two backs who will showcase their skills in Ames, Iowa on Saturday.
The Associated Press
Texas Tech will bring the
Texas tech nation's leading rusher, R i c k y Williams, to face an Iowa State team that features Dar
F
ren Davis, the No.4 rusher in the country.
Iowa State coach Dan McCarney said he was hoping for a full stadium for the Big 12 opener, which will be televised on the league's network. Texas Tech is favored by seven points.
"There's no question two of the premier running backs in all of college football will be on the same field," McCarney said yesterday. "I think it's going to be a great game for the fans."
Williams has carried 111 times for 665 yards in helping Tech to victories against UTEP, North Texas and Fresno State. His average of 221.6 yards a game is more than 37 better than the No. 2 rusher, Mike Cloud of Boston College.
Davis is averaging 171 yards and has run for at least 200 in each of the last two games. With 513 yards, he already is halfway to a second straight 1,000-yard season.
"I think Darren Davis is one of the better runners in the country." Texas Tech coach Spike Dykes said. "I don't think there's any question about that."
Williams was named the Big 12's offensive player of the week after rushing for 244 yards and two touchdowns in a 34-28 victory against Fresno State. The 5-foot-7, 185-pound sophomore runs behind a huge offensive line that averages 323 pounds per man.
The biggest member of that group is 6-5, 357-pound tackle Jonathan Gray, a sophomore.
He is joined by Curtis Lowery (327), Robert Haddon (291), Erik Carruth (311) and Steve McFadden (328).
"I've been around some big offensive lines through the years, and they're just absolutely massive," McCarney said. "When you get big, strong, mobile offensive linemen like that and a tremendous back with speed, vision, quickness, cutting ability and acceleration like he has, that's why you see him leading the nation in rushing right now."
That line will be a challenge for Iowa State's small but quick outside linebackers. Ab Turner is 6-1 and 210 pounds on one side. Jesse Beckom is 6-foot and 215 on the other.
"We can't make them any larger by Saturday," said McCarney, who noted they will have to stand in against one of the most
IOWA STATE
CYCLONES
physical teams he had seen in a long time
their football team," he said. "They're just extremely physical on both sides of the ball. They're definitely the best team we've seen this year."
Iowa State has been outstanding against the run the last two weeks, although the Cyclones have not faced a line like Tech's or a back like Williams. They held Iowa to 42 yards rushing and limited Ball State to 79 yards on the ground.
"We have great chemistry, the kids are unselfish, and we're playing a lot of them," McCarney said. "We didn't play great every snap on Saturday, but in the end, somebody always rises up and makes plays.
"We have four junior college players in there, but we don't have all kinds of new faces," he said. "It's still a lot of the same young kids who played last year and have developed. That's why I'm so proud of their progress."

It's something that concerns Coach Mack Brown as he goes about the task of repairing the damage.
Back-to-back poundings at the hands of nationally ranked opponents have taken a physical and, perhaps more importantly, an emotional toll on the Texas Longhorns.
"It's my job to get my head back up and go back and work as hard as I can this week, as a role model to my a s s i s t a n t coaches, and

defense. They figure to get another test this week with Rice, which runs the option.
"The guy that performs the best in practice will play during the ball game, so we may be making decisions as late as Thursday," he said.
Brown said he is beyond the point of making personnel changes on defense. Instead, he plans to hold "tryouts" every week.
The game of football, he said,
involves "taking crises and
BIG 12 CONFERENCE
turning them into positives."
One team that turned things around last week was Baylor, which defeated then-No. 20 North Carolina State, 33-30. The Bears needed a shot in the arm after going 2-9 last year and losing their opener to Oregon State.
"What Baylor accomplished is just what can happen on a weekly basis in this league with the caliber of teams," said Kansas coach Terry Allen.
Baylor coach Dave Roberts said the victory was huge for his program but came up short of calling it a possible turning point in the season.
"Every game's big, for us because of the schedule," he said. "We just have to try to improve this week and see if we can't get a little better."

CORRY'S COMPLAINT
Following Missouri's 35-14 loss to No.1 Ohio State, quarterback Corby Jones questioned
the decision to pass so infrequently. He was just 6-of-11 passing for 20 yards.
"I think we would have
would have done better if we would have mixed it up," he said.
Coach Larry Smith had no apologies for the game plan. He said neither the coaches nor the
players have enough confidence in the passing game at this point.
Jones: Wanted to throw the ball more against Ohio State.
"They (the players) say they do, but they don't," he said. "I watch them practice. I'm not going to call things that I don't

have confidence in."
And about Jones' comments?
"If he's upset, he should come talk to me."
SHIFTY WILDCAT
Kansas State's David Allen has returned three punts for touchdowns this season, including a 93-vardar against Texas on
Saturday.
What's the secret?
"He doesn't have the greatest speed in the world, but he
C
has great vision, changes directions extremely well," Coach Bill Snyder said. "He's kind of an old throwback in that he sets up blocks really well.
"He'd be the first to tell you this: He's not going to have the success he's had if not for the other 10 guys on that unit. I'm equally proud of them."
THE OTHER RICKY
The nation's leading rusher is Ricky Williams - not the tailback from Texas but the one from Texas Tech.
Williams, a sophomore, is averaging 221 yards per game through the first three games. That's far more than Coach
Spike Dykes expected although he doesn't seem too surprised by what has transpired.
"First of all.
F
he's got no ego, and he's got a great work ethic," Dykes said. "He's not beating his drum for anything, not running for any office. He's just playing football. It's sort of easy to play football if you're not tooting horns all the time."
Texas' Ricky Williams, held to 43 yards by Kansas State, is now averaging 139 per game. That's fourth-best in the league and No.8 nationally.

Track star 'FloJo' dies
Heart seizure appears to be cause of death
The Associated Press
MISSION VIEJO, Calif. — Florence Griffith Joyner, triple gold medalist at the 1988 Olympics who captivated the world with her speed and flamboyant style, died yesterday of an apparent heart seizure. She was 38.
From the White House to fellow track stars, the spinner known as "FloJo" was remembered a decade after she turned the women's sprints at the Seoul
Games into a personal showcase.
"We were dazed by her speed, humbled by her talent and captivated by her style." President Clinton said.
Griffith Joyner was the wife of 1984 Olympic triple-jump gold medalist Al Joyner and the sister-in-law of Jockie, Joyner
P. E. BROWN
Griffith Joyner: Passed away at age 38.
Kersee, the six-time Olympic medalist.
The Orange County sheriff's office said a 911 call was received early yesterday from Al Joyner, who reported that his wife was "unresponsive and not breathing."
She passed away during the night. An autopsy is scheduled. Griffith Joyner had suffered a heart seizure two years ago on a flight to St. Louis.
Primo Nebioli, head of the IAAF, track's international federation, said Griffith Joyner had heart problems recently but the news was a shock.
"I will never forget this extraordinary athlete who stunned the world in Seoul 10 years ago with her amazing sprints and spectacular outfits." Nebilo said.
Griffith Joyner holds world records in the 100- and 200-meter dashes. She set the 100-meter mark of 10.49 seconds at the 1988 Olympic trials and no one has broken even 10.60. At Seoul, she won the gold medal with a wind-aided 10.54 seconds.
She smashed the world 200-meter
record in the Olympic final, clocking 21.34. Marion Jones, with a 21.62 at the World Cup in South Africa earlier this month, is the only other woman to run the 200 in less than 21.70.
Griffith Joyner won a gold medal in the 400-meter relay and just missed a fourth gold medal when the U.S. team finished second in the 1,600-meter relay, which Griffith Joyner anchored.
"FloJo" dazzled fans with her colorful body suits and 6-inch decorated fingernails.
"What Florence brought to track was a flash and a flair we didn't have, which was probably good for the sport and got attention for us," said Evelyn Ashford, who competed with Griffith Joyner in the 1980s.
Griffith Joyner also displayed a muscular physique, which prompted talk of steroid use. She insisted that she never used performance enhancers, and she never failed a drug test.
Once she wore an eye-catching outfit that was a purple body suit with a turquoise bikini brief over it but with nothing on her left leg, a design she referred to as "a one-legged."
At the Olympics, she painted three of her fingerprints red, white and blue, and she painted a fourth one gold to signify her goal.
At the 1987 World Championships in Rome, she ran the first two rounds in a skin-tight suit similar to a speed skater's toes.
But her health was a concern.
In 1996, she suffered a seizure on an airplane flight from California to St. Louis. She was hospitalized one day, and the family requested no details be released. Griffith Joyner was en route to the Jackie Joyner-Kersee Relays for high schoolers.
"We lost one of the great track and field athletes in history," said Greg Foster, the three-time world champion in the 110-meter hurdles. "She's going to be missed. It's definitely a shock, a great loss."
After retiring from track in the wake of the Seoul Games, she served as cochairwoman of the President's Council on Physical Fitness. She also began designing and modeling clothes and working with children.
Griffith Joyner was born Dec. 21, 1969 in south Los Angeles, one of 11 children whose father was an electrical technician and whose mother was a teacher.
She married Al Joyner Oct. 10, 1967.
Funeral arrangements were not announced.
She married Al Joyner Oct. 10, 1987.

New sitcoms jump into fall season
Networks provide variety in premieres
By Frazier Moore The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Life, as we all know, is a process, a journey that prepares you for the great beyond: A sitcom starring you as the person you used to be before you scored your TV deal.
This is something Ray Romano knows well, having enshrined his former life as a Long Island family guy in the hit comedy Everybody Loves Raymond.
World Leader in Test Prep
Jerry Seinfeld, awash in millions from the sitcom where he played a stand-up comic trying to wangle a sitcom deal, knows it too. Ditto, Roseanne. And a few seasons ago, The Mommies sure tried.
Now Boston barmaid-turnedcomic Sue Costello is seeking her
own push hereafter with the auto-
biographical sitcom *Costello*, which
premiered on Fox last Tuesday.
And John DiResta, a real-life New
York City transit cop turned stand-
up comedian turned sitcom hopeful,
will play a transit cop on *DiResta*
Mondays on UPN starting Oct. 5.
The lesson from this is clear: Live each day as if it were an episode of a sitcom starring you as yourself where you're up against Drew Carey.Someday, sweetie, you might be.
The 1998-99 season officially begins this week, ushering in 16 of the total crop of 36 new series. But before you stress out at the thought of catching each premiere, remember there's much to learn from the networks' fall offerings — without even having to watch.
—Lesson: If your children's mother should fly the coop, do not despair. It means you can hire a sexy younger woman who will
**Lesson:** Life is a cosmic quota you must meet . . . or else. The hero of ABC's *Cupid* insists he must romantically link 100 couples before he can return to Mount Olympus. On Fox's *Brimstone*, cop-gone-to-heil Peter Horton is sent back up to Earth, where redemption awaiens if he can recapture 113 fugitive souls.
gladly tend to your offspring and potentially — wink, wink — you, too. Divorce or widowhood? No prob! ABC's "Two Of A Kind and Fox's Holding the Baby erase all doubt.
■ Lesson: The show must go on — except when it must not. Recently Fox snuffed Hollyweird, a creepy-crawly whodunit, before it ever drew a breath. This follows in the tradition of last season's *Rewind*, a Fox sitcom starring Scott Balo, similarly yanked before its premiere.
- Lesson: You can go home again, whether as a big success the young software tycoon of WB's Hyperion
And, of course, you can leave home. Escaping her parents, the comely eponym of WB's Felicity bolts clean across the continent for college in New York City.
*Boy*) or a failure (Faith Ford as CBS' broke, divorced Wagley Winters).
But don't try to make your home in the 'burbs. As the gated subdivisions of ABC's The Hughleys and Fox's Living in Captivity demonstrate, the only menace greater than people who are different from you is those who aren't.
■ Lesson: With the exception of the gay leading man on Will & Grace and the promiscuously nice title character of Conrad Bloom (both on NBC), males on sitcoms are likely to be infantile louts.
And even a man holding the nation's highest office can be an oaf, according to The Secret Diaries of Desmond Pfeiffer. A screwball exercise in revision history, this UPN comedy exposes Abraham Lincoln as a philandering buffoon. Imagine such behavior in a president!
Oscar-winner accents talent with modesty
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — A trailer fit for a movie queen was waiting for Meryl Streep when she arrived in Ireland last summer to begin shooting a low-budget film.
It was a massive, ugly aluminum thing, fully equipped and noticeably larger than the trailers assigned each of the five other actors.
Streep made a mental note.
By week's end, the trailer was gone, replaced by a more modest one.
"That's pure Meryl," says Pat O'Connor, director of the forthcoming Dancing at Lughnasa. "She's so likable, she's so lacking in fussiness. That trailer bothered her."
There are times when Streep acts like a 49-year-old soccer morn-
who has stumbled into a career as one of the most revered actors of her generation, picking up 10

"People think I know something that I don't know," she says. "They see me as not who I really am. It's like I'm now sort

of emeritus on some level, you know? Like Stella Adler. But I don't know anything! And very quickly on they realize this."
Ask about her craftsmanship,
and you are met with puzzle.
"Look, I really don't know how people act," she says. "I feel like I'm just sneaking by a lot. I have great respect for other actors and really don't know how they do it. I really don't. It's wonderful when you see it done right—and that's what I crave, but I don't know how people light upon that truth."
This is, after all, Meryl Streep confessing to cinematic ignorance.
"I think sometimes she takes herself by surprise," O'Connor says, laughing. "She can vanish into a role so far that when she resurfaces, she doesn't know what happened!"
Going deep is a big part of Streep's reputation. She studied both Polish and German for three
months to do a scene in Sophie's Choice.
But Carl Franklin, director of her latest film, *One True Thing*, says Streep's ability is not about just being ready.
"She is someone who goes through all the preparation, but I think we're talking about something beyond that, too," he says. "There's a gift going on. She's blessed."

To that, the actress just laughs. There are, she insists, no geniuses in the Streep household, where she is the working mother of four and wife of 20 years to sculptor Donald Gummer.
"It very rarely happens that I meet someone new without them already having an opinion about me," she says. "I can see them running through the reel when they meet you."

Taped testimony released
Contradicting stories aired on television, internet, radio
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Congress released yesterday the raw footage of President Clinton's grand jury testimony and 3,183 pages of evidence chronicling his relationship with Monica Lewinsky in explicit detail.
"It's an embarrassing and personally painful thing," Clinton told the grand iurors.
White House press secretary Mike McCurry blamed the release on partisanship and dismissed most of the new material as irrelevant.
The tape portrayed Clinton at sometimes angry at prosecutors' questions.
PETER HARRIS
The two-volume set of evidence made public included Lewinsky's own account to prosecutors and the grand jury, in which she called the presi-
McCurry: Decried the release of Clinton's testimony.
In which one of these dent her sexual soul mate and testified about her frustration that the president had not taken their sexual activity further.
"Maybe that was his way of being able to feel OK in yourself."
"this way it justifies justify it or rationalize it," she said.
Away from the spectacle, the president was at the United Nations in New York. His speech on combating terrorism got a standing ovation.
Rep. John Conyers Jr., ranking Democrat on the House Judiciary Committee, decried that the release of irrelevant, unnecessary disclosure of salacious and hurid details was meant to embarrass the president.
But Republican members of the committee said the video

Lewinsky: Her testimony contradicted the President's.
tape revealed Clinton's legal maneuvering. Commitment perjury before the grand jury would be grounds for impeachment, said Rep. Charles Candy, R-Fla.
Lewinsky's testimony contradicted the president's on several key aspects. She insisted that he did touch her body during their sexual encounters and
that they were alone at times in the Oval Office. She dates their first sexual encounter to November 1995 while she was still an intern. Clinton said the contacts began in January 1996 after she had a pald White House job.
At the request of one grand juror, Lewinsky recounted her conversations with Clinton about concealing or denying their sexual relationship, discussions that prosecutors allege amounted to obstruction of justice.
"I told him I could always — I would always deny it. I would always protect him," Lewinsky said.
She was then asked by a juror to recount what the president said.
American watchers on televisions and computers across the country saw their president taking the oath before a grand jury, wrestling with difficult and graphic questions and trying to fall back on a technical, legal defense.
"I'm seeing him smile, and I'm hearing him saying 'that's good,' or — something affirmative," she said. Clinton said he never asked her to lie.
"I am not going to answer your trick questions," Clinton snapped at prosecutors at one point.
Eighteen-year-old Chris Junker at the University of Nebraska said he thought Clinton had done a bunch of lying so far, and that he was just trying to make up for it.
A different view came from cab driver Fofana Sekou, watching in the Greyhound bus station in Philadelphia.
"IIf the man is doing a good job, you got to give him a chance to let him finish what he's doing," Sekou said.
Clinton read a statement describing his relationship with Lewinsky as involving inappropriate intimate contact. He then refused to describe the relationship further when prosecutors asked.
"I think it is clear what inappropriately intimate it. I have said what it did not include. It did not include sexual intercourse, and I do not believe it included conduct which falls within the definition I was given in the Jones deposition," Clinton said.
Clinton gradually grew more animated. He grasped his chin, pointed his finger thoughtfully and took frequent sips of water as he discussed the meaning of sexual relations in almost businesslike fashion.
"Again I say, sir, just from the tone of your voice and the way you're asking questions here, it's obvious this is the most important thing in the world and that everybody was focused on all the details at the time. But that's not the way it worked, I was, I was doing my best to remember," the president said.
Premier ousted; Malaysia riots
The Associated Press
KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia — Ignoring a visit by the British queen, thousands of supporters of Malaysia's ousted deputy premier clashed yesterday with police trying to end two weeks of protest — the biggest outpouring of dissent during Mahathir Mohamad's 17-year rule.
After calling on army reservists and riot police to quell the unrest that reflected a pitched battle for power in this Muslim nation, Prime Minister Mahathir joined Queen Elizabeth II at the finale of the Commonwealth Games.
The arrest of former Deputy Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim added a volatile element to Malaysia's political and economic troubles.
straters took to the streets in other parts of the capital, where they were chased by riot police.
With police helicopters buzzing overhead, more than 1,000 officers chased mobs of protesters down side streets and blocked roads in an effort to contain angry demonstrators.
Several thousand more demon
Anwar, tossed out of the government earlier this month, was expected to face charges of sexual misconduct and disturbing the public order. He has vehemently denied the charges, saying they were cooked up by Mahathir.
As with many other Asian nations, Malaysia is struggling with a worsening economy. But those frustrations haven't mounted to the levels in Indonesia, where people rioted spontaneously leading to the downfall of President Suharto in May.
But Anwar has been leading an increasingly vocal opposition to the 72-year-old prime minister since Sept. 2, when Mahathir fired the man he once had designated his successor.

live Anwar." Such attacks on the dignity and authority of the prime minister were unheard of.
The sight of 35,000 people, punching the air with their fists, waving banners and shouting "Reform!" at a downtown square on Sunday may have been the last straw.
Two hours later, a masked team of special agents broke down Anwar's front door. Federal police said Anwar was placed under indefinite detention as a security risk.
Russian leaders try to jump start economy
The Associated Press
MOSCOW—Russia has issued $55 million in new rubles in a bid to prevent the collapse of commercial banks, the Central Bank said yesterday, playing down concerns the move would fuel inflation.
The announcement came while President Boris Yeltsin and Prime Minister Yevgeny Primakov met to complete Cabinet selections and work on a strategy to jump start the moribund economy.
As part of the effort, the Central Bank printed $55 million in rubles and issued short-term credits to banks. Karbon
The financial crisis has caused a backlog of bank payments totaling more than $1.9 billion, Andrei Kozlov, first deputy chairman of the Central Bank, said at a news conference yesterday.
said the amount was too small to affect the rubble's rate and inflation.
The bank launched an emergency rescue plan on Friday to help settle $613 million of the payments, Kozlov said.
Many analysts feared the move could set a dangerous precedent, and if the policy was continued, it could

Critics have accused the govern
ment of responding slowly to the crisis.
Primakov has been in office 10 days but has yet to outline an overall economic strategy or to put his Cabinet in place. About a dozen seats are still empty.
"We are going to finalize the personnel issue with (Primakov) today." Yeltsin said at the start of his meeting with Primakov.
But only one Cabinet appointee was announced after the meeting: Gennady Kulik, 63, a Soviet-era agricultural official and a member of parliament's Agrarian Faction, was named deputy prime minister for agriculture.
Deputy Prime Minister Alexan der Shokhin, after meeting with Yeltsin khin, said the government's economic plan would be unvelled tomorrow.

THE STUDENT NEWSPAPER OF THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS
One woman tells her story about rape
(USPS 650-640)
ALEXIS SHEPHERD
Katie Koestner, a nationally known speaker, talks to students at the Lied Center about date rape. Koestner, a rape victim herself in 1991, has spoken at more than 500 universities, military bases and high schools in 46 states. She has appeared on The Tonight Show, CNBC Live and on the cover of TIME magazine. She has an HBO special due out later this year.

Speaker shares experience for Greek Week
By Sarah Hale Kansan staff writer
She looked like any other college student with her petite frame, long, blond pony tail and simple, black pant suit.
However, instead of sitting in the audience at the Lied Center with about 900 people last night, she spoke from the podium and told about the night she was raped.
Katie Koestner, who was a victim of date rape in 1991, was the featured speaker for Greek Week's kick-off event.
Greek Week, a series of events organized to help unite the University of Kansas' greek community, always includes an educational program. Greek Week ends Saturday.
She began last night by telling jokes and making the audience laugh, but as she continued with her story, people stopped laughing.
"I have never seen a group of so many students sit so still for more than an hour and a half in all my life," said Danner Evans, Wichita junior.
Koestner met Peter, the man convicted of raping her, during her first weekend at William and Mary College in Virginia.
She told the audience about how they met, the movie they watched and about her feelings toward him.
One night while at a formal French restaurant, and after only 10 days of knowing Peter, he invited her to spend the summer with him in Greece and told her she would have to have sex with him whenever he wanted.
As a naive 18-year-old, Koestner said she laughed it off.
"I had a small knot in my stomach," she said. "I ignored that small knot that night."
After dinner, she invited him back to her room.
After the lengthy details about him pinning her down while she said no at least 12 times, Koestner told the audience why she has continued to share her story.
"The men who needed to be here tonight didn't fit it into their schedule," she said. "In fact, the men who are here are brave. I could probably give my speech to 1,000 people, and if one of those brave men said to me 'I hate rape,' it would all be worth it."
She told the audience that she wasn't a man-hater, but she directed a lot of her speech toward the men.
"I felt completely powerless, that's a sensation that most men don't encounter," she said.
She reminded the men in the audience that the one in four women who are raped also are their mothers, sisters, girlfriends and daughters.
She urged them to come forward and tell someone.
Koestner said that she was the first reported rape at her college in 300 years. She wants women to be aware that 84 percent of rapes occur between people who know each other.
"I felt completely powerless; that's a sensation that most men don't encounter."

Koestner has traveled to more than 500 high schools and colleges telling about the night when she was pinned to her residence hall bed.
He said that Koestner appeared on the cover of Time magazine June 3, 1991, and had an HBO after-school special created about her story, *No Visible Bruises: The Katie Koestner Story*.
Koestner has pioneered the term date rape and has appeared on television programs such as The Oprah Winfrey Show, Geraldo and Entertainment Tonight, said Wes Simons, assistant director of greek programs.
Students may need own home computers
By Jason Pearce
Kansan staff writer
Some University of Kansas officials believe that computer ownership is becoming just as important for students as buying textbooks.
Faculty members, acting on a recommendation from Provost David Shulenburger, are discussing the implications of requesting that all students own or have access to a computer in their residence by fall 1999, said Kathleen McCluskey-Fawcett, associate provost.
"There has been some active discussion, but no definite goals have been set," McCluskey-Fawcett said.
Jerry Niebaum, assistant vice chancellor for information services, said that the University would stop short of using a computer police staff that would ensure the students had computers.
"It is like textbooks — students are not required to have a textbook for a class," he said. "Nobody checks to see if you have bought or obtained them."
Niebaum said that 75 to 80 percent of incoming freshman already came to the University owning a computer so the University was aiming at a small group.
Niebaum said that parents and students understood the importance of electronic processing and networking in today's university world.

Campus organizations rebuke abortion display
Supporters say exhibit meant to stimulate rational discussion
By Chad Bettes
Kansan staff writer
Five campus organizations came together last night for a press conference in the Kansas Union to denounce the photographs and other tactics being used by an anti-abortion group on campus this week.
Representatives for each of the groups — KU Hildel, KU Pro-Choice Coalition, Black Student Union, Ecumenical Christian Ministries and Delta Force — said they recognized the right to free speech but thought that the anti-abortion display went too far.
Seth Weisblatt, president of Hillel, said he had a problem with the means being used to express the views, in particular the comparison of abortion to the Holocaust.
The photographs and tactics in question are those being used by the Center for Bio-Ethical Reform as part of its Genocide Awareness Project. The group's display shows victims of the Holocaust and racial lynchings alongside pictures of aborted fetuses. The center considers abortion to be a genocide.
He said the display used by the group was offensive and insensitive to the University of Kansas community.
Pro-Choice Coalition president Sarah Page, Prairie Village senior, said she was outraged by the display.
The groups at the press conference made claims of racism, religious disrespect and disrespect for women.
ment of women was a constant struggle.
Jonathan Macklin, executive board member of the Black Student Union, said the center should not draw the comparison to slave lynchings because it was too historically sensitive to African Americans.
"This message is not welcome at the University, nor will it be tolerated," Page said.
"We don't want to relive it." Macklin said.

David Lee, director of operations for the center, agreed that the photographs were offensive but said that the subject was an offensive one. Lee said the photographs being used to depict the victimized groups commonly were found in history books across the country.
He compared the intent of the photographs to the Steven Spielberg movie Schindler's List, which graphically showed the horrors of the Holocaust.
"Spielberg was asked about children crying at the movie," Lee said. "He said if they did cry over the movie, it would be worth it if they worked to see that this never happened again."
"I feel strongly that this is an important issue that is largely ignored because it has become invisible in our society," he said.
White said the pictures were intended to stimulate rational dialogue.

Preacher stirs emotions in front of Wescoe Hall
Bv Chris Fickott
Kansan staff writer
About 150 students — some listening, some shouting back — gathered in front of Wescoe Hall yesterday to watch and question the preachings of brother Jed Smock.
Smock stood on chairs, shouted at students' retorts and preached about what roles women should fill, premarital sex, alcohol consumption and other biblical issues.
"We're here to reveal the character of God to his critics," he said.
Smock was accompanied by deacon Curtis Schell of the Glad Tidings Assembly of God Church in Lincoln, Neb.
Holly Sampson, Bartlesville, Okla., freshman, said her Methodist beliefs differed from Smock's preaching.
Schell said their mission was to turn the hearts of people back to God.
"He's here to condemn people for the way they lead their lives," she
said. "My God — the God I know — is loving." she said.
Sampson said Smock had a right to be on campus but that he should respect other people's beliefs.
Smock has been a campus evangelist for 25 years, preaching on more than 600 college campuses.
Schell said he had preached Monday at Kansas State University and that he would return to Manhattan tomorrow before returning to Lincoln.

Clue about car thefts found on Daisy Hill
A police officer from the KU Public Safety Office discovered potential evidence in the string of auto thefts on Daisy Hill.
According to a report released by the Public Safety Office yesterday, the officer was searching the area in and around the lots west of Lewis and Hashinger halls Friday. He discovered a bent metal antenna about 150 feet from a vehicle that had been burglarized.
The antenna was bent into an 'L', and the end was bent into a fish-hook shape, the officer said in the report. The item appeared to be a homemade "Slim Jim" — an item used to open locked cars through the window frame. Police still are investigating the burglaries.

Marines to face more charges in Italy case
CAMP LEJEUNE, N.C. — Two Marine aviators whose jet clipped an Italian gondola cable, killing 20 people, waived their right to the equivalent of a civilian grand jury hearing on new charges in the case.
The additional charges of obstruction of justice and conspiracy to obstruct justice against Capts, Richard J. Ashby and Joseph P. Schweitzer will be included at their courts-martial on manslaughter and homicide charges, the U.S. Marine Corps said Monday.
The court-martial for Ashby, 30, of Mission Viejo, Calif., will be held Dec. 7-18, while the court-martial for Schweitzer, 30, of Westbury, N.Y., will be held Jan. 4-15. Both men will be tried at Camp Lejeune.
Ashby, the pilot, and Schweitzer, the navigator, will be tried on 20 counts of involuntary manslaughter and negligent homicide, as well as dereliction of duty, destroying military property and
destroying civilian property. If convicted on all charges, they could be imprisoned for life.
Their jet temporarily was assigned to the U.S. base at Aviano, Italy, on Feb. 3, when the plane sliced the cable while on a low-level training flight in the Italian Alps.
Federal grand jury indicts extremist's ex-secretary
NEW YORK — A federal grand jury indicted the former personal secretary of Muslim extremist Osama bin Laden on charges he lied about his ties to bin Laden's terrorist organization.
Wadh El Hage, of Arlington, Texas, is charged with eight counts of perjury and three counts of making false statements
The grand jury also has been investigating whether his "international travels concerned efforts to procure chemical weapons" for bin Laden, according to the indictment handed down Monday.
FBI agents arrested El Hage, 38, last week while investigating bin Laden, the Saudi exile wanted by U.S. authorities for allegedly coordinating attacks on American embassies in Kenya and Tanzania.
The federal indictment says El Hage perjured himself during testimony in 1997 and again last week before a grand jury investigating bin Laden and his organization, al Qaeda. El Hage was first subpoenaed last year after FBI agents identified him as a bin Laden cohort, the indictment says.
Deficit falls 68 percent gives way to surplus
WASHINGTON — With just a month left to go in fiscal 1998, the first federal budget surplus in 29 years looks virtually assured.
The Treasury Department reported yesterday a deficit of $11.2 billion in August, down 68 percent from a year ago. That put the surplus for the first 11 months of the budget year at $31.8 billion.
With quarterly tax payments flowing into federal coffers in September, the surplus for the full year should double that amount and surpass the latest government projections. The September surplus last year was $49.9 billion.
Analysts attribute the turn around to the tax increase pushed through Congress by President Clinton in 1993, the spending cuts agreed upon by Congress and the president in 1997 and until recent months - robust economic growth and a booming stock market.
Whatever the surplus, 1998 will mark the first year without a deficit since 1969 — Richard Nixon's first year in office. The deficit hit a record $290 billion in 1992 and shrank to a 23-year low of $22 billion in 1997.
Spending for fiscal 1998 through
August totaled $1.51 trillion, up 2.2 percent, or not much more than the inflation rate. However, revenue, at $1.54 trillion, is up 9.7 percent from the same period during the previous fiscal year.
Hurricane Georges expected in Florida
SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico — Hurricane Georges' 120 mph winds knocked out power and forced residents into shelters in the densely populated Dominican Republic yesterday, after plowing through Puerto Rico and leaving at least 10 dead in the northeast Caribbean.
Georges' powerful thunderstorms Monday left all of Puerto Rico without electricity and 80 percent of its people without water. The storm spawned tornadoes as it ripped through the island of 4 million people, turning trees into missiles, flipping small planes, exploding car windows and forcing tens of thousands into shelters.
As the hurricane headed west across the Caribbean, concern was growing in Florida — where Georges was expected late Thursday or early Friday. Tourists were advised to leave the Florida Keys, but there was no immediate estimate of how many people might do so.
Hurricane warnings were posted for Haiti, eastern Cuba, the southeastern Bahamas and the Turks and Caicos islands, and a hurricane watch was in effect in parts of Cuba and the Bahamas.
Georges unleashed a landslide near San Juan that killed three people, civil defense officials said. Two people died of heart attacks in shelters, and one person was reported missing in another landslide.

all a radical idea for 1999," he said. "More and more faculty members are depending on computers as a way of communicating with students."
Ed Meyen, chairman for the academic computing and telecommunications committee, said that the committee would discuss the proposal in future meetings.
"There are a number of people who think this is a very sound recommendation." Meven said.
Meyen said students with home computers had more advantages than students without home computers.
"With the amount of educational resources on the Internet, one needs access in order to be more prepared," Meyen said.
Individual schools, including the School of Engineering and the School of Architecture and Urban Design, already are moving to supply students with computer access.
This fall, the School of Architecture and Urban Design implemented a policy that highly recommended that all of its thirteenth architecture students own a computer.
John Gaunt, the school's dean, said the policy was flexible.
Gaunt said the policy enables students to prepare for a changing job market where computer literacy is becoming a requirement.
"The day is coming quickly where all students simply will come to school with their own computer," he said. "It is sort of like owning a telephone."
Carl Locke, School of Engineering dean, said an engineering committee was looking at ways of making computer ownership more accessible for its students.
He said that the ways could include supplying students with laptop computers at a discounted price.

First humanities lecture to focus on Christian pain
By Carolyn Mollott
Kansan staff writer
Many Christians have debated whether it is preferable to suffer pain during this life or suffer eternal pain.
Sandra Zimdars-Swartz, professor of religious studies, will give her speech, "Wounds over Wounds: Christianity, Pain and Religious Experience," at 8 tonight at the Spencer Museum of Art Auditorium.
The speech opens the 1988-1999 Humanities Lecture Series.
She will use three historical stories to illustrate the centrality of pain in many Christian beliefs and teachings.
"Some Christians have certainly wondered if, by avoiding pain in this life, they are avoiding it in the next," Zimdars-Swartz said.
Although Zimdars Swartz studies pain in a historical context, she said the subject could be applied to modern times. An example is modern medicine.
"The question always becomes 'when should you alleviate pain?'" she said.
She said pain referred to both physical and emotional pain because they were inseparable in
this context.
"Physical pain always has an emotional component, and emotional pain always has a physical component." Zimdars-Swartz said.
Two of the stories she will examine deal with suffering in this life. One is about a third-century martyr. The other is about a late,19th century female stigmatic, that is, someone who bears sores corresponding to the crucifixion wounds of Jesus.
The third story is an other-worldly journey from the 13th century dealing with suffering in the afterlife.
Upon returning to this life, the visionary in the third story is able to relate information to the living about dead relatives. Zimdars-Swartz said that ability made the visionary powerful.
"People who experience pain are perceived as either very weak or very powerful," she said.
Zimdars-Swartz said each of the stories involved public performances of pain that empowered the sufferers.
Zimdars-Swartz will be the first of four lecturers for the series this year. She will be the only KU faculty member to speak. Typically, the series premieres with a KU faculty member and the other speakers visit from other universities.

Queer theorist Steven Seidman discussed queer identity politics in the Kansas Union yesterday.
Seidman, visiting the University of Kansas from the State University of New York at Albany, kicked off the Prairie Theory Lectures at 3 p.m. in the Jayhawk Room. About 60 people attended the speech.
The lectures are being sponsored by the sociology department and the Center for Applied Social Theory.
"Queer politics struggles against normalizing any identity," he said.
Seidman said queer politics could be viewed as anti-normalizing politics.
Normalization makes judgments about what is right and wrong based on society's views about what is normal and healthy, Seidman said. He said this was not only applied to homosexuality, but also to sexual acts.
Seidman said movies, such as "Philadelphia," were ground breaking in many ways but asserted the normal status of the homosexual. He said that although the main character, Andy, was homosexual in all other ways, he fell into the normal category for Americans. He was hard working, successful and had a strong home background with supportive parents
who had been married for 50 years.
"Only the homosexual who is a mirror image of the heterosexual is acceptable." Seidman said.
He said the attempted normalization of homosexuality could be related to the feminist movement, where feminists critiqued the stereotypical roles and values to which women were supposed to adhere.
she attended the speech to get ideas for a paper she was writing about feminism. She said the speech, and the theories behind it, were interesting.
Laura Horne, Lawrence junior, said
Christine Robinson, graduate teaching assistant in sociology, said she thought Seidman had a lot to offer in the way people think about sexuality.
"I think he is the most prominent and engaging queer theorist in sociology today," she said.

Explicitness of Starr report vital; Clinton deserves embarrassment
The nature of President Clinton's relationship with Monica Lewinsky is now common knowledge, thanks to Independent Counsel Kenneth Starr's report to the House of Representatives.
The graphic nature of the report and videotaped testimony has stirred debate about whether such explicit details had to be included in the report. Unfortunately, these details were necessary to show that the president may have committed a crime.
In the president's depositions in the Paula Jones case, prosecutors asked him whether he had ever had sexual relations with Lewinsky. The president said he did not. However, ensuing testimony from Lewinsky contradicted his denial.
According to the definition given to
Clinton's denial of sex by a narrowly tailored definition left Starr no other choice.
Clinton, a person engages in sexual relations when the person knowingly engages in or causes contact with the genitalia, anus, groin, breast, inner thigh, or buttocks of any person with an intent to arouse or gratify the sexual desire of that person. Contact means intentional touching, either directly or through clothing.
Given the details of Clinton's relationship with Lewinsky, it's clear the president did not give a legally accurate account in his depositions. Although the graphic details in Starr's report may be
nummiting, they are indeed warranted. President Clinton repeatedly made vague statements in an attempt to avoid prosecution. Starr had to show that these vague statements were legally inaccurate.
The events Starr describes so thoroughly are quite shocking and embarrassing to the president. We, as citizens, should be even more shocked, embarrassed and disgusted that the leader of our nation would not only commit such improprieties but also lie to us about them.
The Starr investigation was costly, tedious and a distraction from important issues, but it was an unfortunate necessity. Nobody in the United States, especially the president, should expect special consideration in matters of the law.
Chris Borniger for the editorial board
Starr report demoralizes nation, office
Out of respect for the president, his family, American citizens and the country, Kenneth Starr should not have focused on graphic sexual details in his report and videotaped questioning. The infamous report and testimony are too detailed, too personal and too irrelevant to be broadcast to the entire nation.
Although the report did prove that Clinton had lied under oath and that he was not in moral alignment with the values of the nation, the American people did not need to know the details of his affair with Monica Lewinsky.
Rather than publishing the explicit details of every sexual encounter, it would have sufficed to publish a toned-down account of acts performed in the only place relevant to the presidency, the Oval Office.
Releasing graphic details of Clinton's sex life will do the country more harm than good.
Because of the Starr report, the American people now officially know that their president is dishonest. The presidency of the United States is supposed to be the most respect-commanding office in the world and Clinton the most respected man. When the entire nation knows details of his sex life that most only would share with a close friend, how is Clinton to effectively run the country?
Stars should have thought about what would happen to the nation should he release his report. He should have taken into account that the report would erase any shred of reverence left
for the president of the United States. He never considered that graphic details might demoralize the nation and leave the people thirsting for more smut about their president.
Above all, the explicit information in the Starr report is superflous gossip that makes no difference about whether Clinton is an effective president. The proof that he has obstructed justice on 11 counts is relevant and worthy of the people's attention. What he did in the heat of romantic passion is not.
Although Clinton deserves ridicule, he did not deserve to have his intimate encounters published to the world. Starr should not have released his entire case, for not only has he destroyed a man, but he has weakened the office of the president and demoralized a nation.

Perspective
Clinton needs to take himself, lies out of office
I will come right out and say it—I've never been a huge Clinton fan. But the president's conduct has been serious enough that it should provoke outrage in every political circle.
Carrie Johnson opinion@kansan.com
When Clinton swore under oath, he was staking his honor on the truth of what was to come from his lips. By reneging on that sacred promise to tell the truth, his personal and professional honor have been bulldozed into a latrine.
I
But let's get off the sex. His affair with Monica Lewinsky itself is not the problem. His outright lies to the public are not the problem. Although those actions were wrong, neither of those actions were crimes. Lying under oath, however, is a crime.
From the way the media and Clinton's defenders are spinning it, the uninformed American may think the whole fiasco is about sex, pizza, an intern, sex, more sex and a cigar. Now before you start spouting off about how Bill's private life is none of the public's business and that we should let Hillary worry about where he puts his Executive Branch, let's look at the facts.
Clinton knows he lied under oath. No amount of smoke-blowing with legalese steamanigans will change that. Even under the definition of sexual relations that Clinton claims to have used in his answers, he lied about his activities and perjured himself. The only reason he denies perjuring himself is because to admit to it would be to open the way for the legal repercussions that would surely follow.
If Clinton had only confessed to the affair earlier and told the truth, his problems would be exponentially smaller. Not only has he humiliated himself by cheating with a woman young enough to be his daughter and lied to the American people — but worse, he has shown total disregard for the American justice system by lying under oath. Such behavior is reprehensible.
Clinton is a perjurer, a coward and a disgrace to our nation. If he does not have the decency to step down, then Congress has a duty to begin impeachment proceedings.
Under oath in the Paula
Jones case, Clinton said he did not have sexual relations with intern Monica Lewinsky.
First, her story fits with the evidence, and second, would she really keep coming back for more if she wasn't getting anything but a "thank you, Monica" out of the deal? Then Clinton lied — even under his own narrow interpretation of the Jones case definition.
The definition of sexual relations used in that case included the following (quoted from the Starr report): [A] person engages in "sexual relations" when the person knowingly engages in or causes — (1) contact with the genitalia, anus, groin, breast, inner thigh, or buttocks of any person with an intent to arouse or gratify the sexual desire of any person . . .
Starr said "Contact" meant intentional touching either directly or through clothing.
Appearing before the grand jury last month, Clinton refused to give details about the specific nature of his activities with Lewinsky, but said those activities did not meet the legal definition of sexual relations.
In essence, Clinton said that if Lewinsky performed oral sex on him, then that does not mean that he was having sexual relations with her; she was having sexual relations with him, but he was not since he was only touched by her mouth.
Johnson is an Oklahoma City sophomore majoring in English.
However, Lewinsky's story is different. She says that he was more than just a passive observer in the affair and he enjoyed touching
her breasts with his hands and mouth and her genitals with his hands both through clothing and directly.
rake a look at Lewinsky's testimony and
judge for yourself.
Feedback
Abortion-rights activists praised
Every member of the University community who values free, open debate should praise the folks who are peacefully but vigorously protesting the pathetic "prolife" photo murals now defacing Strong Hall's lawn.
Despite cold rain and a limited budget, several dozen KU students mobilized quickly on Monday to offer a powerful but peaceful rebuttal to the lies and hate spewed by the so-called "Center for Bio-Ethical Reform."
Though the students lack the outsiders' financial and media resources, they do know the power of free speech and righteous passion.
I hope other members of the University community who value our constitutional rights will join the peaceful witnesses over the next few days. This cynical media spectacular, doubtless funded and organized by the same kinds of zealots who harass women and their families at reproductive health clinics should provoke a vigorous campaign on many levels.
Historians should expose the lie that equates the Holocaust with family-planning free from state dictation. Lawyers should explain just why our Constitution empowers women to decide the most fundamental issues of their lives. Doctors should unmask the multiple deceptions at work in these ghastly photos.
Kansans together should make sure this experience leaves all of us more aware of our individual rights and community responsibilities.
Karl Brooks Lawrence graduate student
Anti-abortion photos too graphic
I notice that the photographs in the anti-abortion protest were too graphic to be on but the cover of the Kansan - convenient placement of bodies to cover up the images... So if they need to be censored from your newspaper, why are they allowed on huge signs ON
CAMPUS? Regardless of your opinion on the subject of abortion, the photos are disgusting, and should not be forced upon people.
Rebecca Fenton Woy Woy, Australia junior
Abortion doesn't equal genocide
If this is a University sponsored activity, I would like to voice my protest right now. No one has the right to make anyone feel as uncomfortable as my friends and I were made to feel by those images.
The focus of my anger is the pro-life displays that were in front of Strong Hall on Monday. I want to ask the people behind the offensive displays: What were you thinking? What kind of rational train of thought leads one to declare a moral correctness by posting seven-feet-tall posters of bloody fetuses, internal organs, dead Jewish people and dead Black people.
I saw these images as I was on my way to class in Wescoe and was horrified. The "warning" signs posted on either side of Strong Hall don't exactly serve any purpose when these images are placed somewhere you have to be anyway.
The pictures are so large that you can't avoid seeing them if you happen to be on Wesco Beach eating lunch. It seems that the people who arranged the display made the mistake of believing that if you can arise disgust in people then you have made your point; no debate necessary. It just doesn't work that way.
There are a lot of things out there that disgust people but that doesn't mean they prove anything. Many people would probably be disgusted if I posted a giant photo of a dissected human body, myself included. Does it then follow that we shouldn't dissect human bodies to save or better human lives? No. What it means is that we find tasteless and offensive to look at dead bodies not that is necessarily morally wrong that they exist.
But maybe some people will say that this type of display is necessary to leo peo
ple know just what an abortion is, to remind them of what is going on.
Well I have wto basic responses to that. First, is there anybody out there who doesn't know what an abortion is? Is there anyone out there that really doesn't understand that a human fetus looks like a human being? The gruesome images tried to bypass important issues within abortion by shocking and disgusting the public into agreement.
To further support the proposition that these photos were only displayed for shock value is the fact that they were displayed with other images which are unrelated to abortion. A pile of dead Jewish people in a wagon with a swastika in the corner, two dead Black people hanging from a tree. Is this a subtle way to compare pro-choicers to Nazis and lynchers? How do you justify this comparison? You offer the shocking comparison for all to see but an explanation isn't posted.
No one knows for sure when life begins. We don't know if fetuses can feel pain from being aborted or if they ever even have a consciousness to harm. Painlessly stopping a life before it begins is different than purposefully torturing the life out of a definitely alive person.
I'm sure there aren't very many people out there who will need this distinction but I will give a couple of features that distinguish prochoicers from Nazis and lynchers.
In comparing abortion to hate crimes such as the Holocaust and lynchings another problem arises. Prochoicers don't hate fetuses. Hate is a very necessary element in a hate crime. There can't even be a shred of an argument to say that prochoicers are like Nazis and lynchers, or that they are promoting genocide.
Genocide aims at the extinction of a race or group. Does anyone think that prochoicers wish to make all fetuses extinct? No, they believe that there is a right way and a wrong way to bring human life into this world and that force and coercion is the wrong way.

City Commission considers renovations for airport hangar
By Chris Fickett Kansan staff writer
The Lawrence City Commission gave clearance to renovate the city's hangar at the Lawrence Municipal Airport, but plans for a new hangar are in a holding pattern.
The commission voted 3-2 to accept a $458,609.20 bid to renovate the city's existing white, cinder block hangar and to rebid a proposal to construct a new hangar.
John Hunter, owner of DreamWings, said that his business received many inquiries about his planes at a recent aircraft convention in Oshkosh. Wis.
Once the existing hangar is renovated, it will be leased by DreamWings, L.L.C., a local company that designs and builds ultralight aircraft.
"We were just mobbed," he said. "I had 40 or 50 people come to me who were ready to buy a competitor's plane who said that they would wait until we got one in the air."
Hunter said that he wanted the hangar renovations to begin so that he could begin building and testing his prototype aircraft
"Our problem is as before," Hunter said. "We need a hangar to build these airplanes."
Hunter is renting space in the University of Kansas' hangar to operate his business.

DreamWings, a $435,336 bid to construct a new hangar was on the table.
Lloyd Hetrick is in charge of housing incoming aircraft in the city's hangar.
Hetrick said that some of today's aircraft would not fit in the 20-foot-high door specified under the new hangar's construction. Hetrick said that 48 of the 219 aircraft that landed at the airport last month could not fit through such a door.
"I've got to fill that hangar to pay the bills," he said.
Commissioner John Nalbandian moved to accept the bid for the renovations and to direct staff to rebid the new hangar to include a larger door.
“In a city like ours, I can't see how investing money in an airport is a bad idea,” he said. “Investing money now will give this business a chance to do some good work, and the city will get an incentive.”
"At the very least, we have to bring it up to hangar status. It's a pit."
Bob Moody
city commissioner
Commissioner Bob Moody agreed that the city should renovate the hangar but disagreed with the part of the plan that included 2,000 square feet of office space and interior walls.
"At the very least, we have to bring it up to hangar status," he said. "It's a pit."
Moody said that Hunter should be responsible for the other additions.
Moody motioned to amend Nalbandian's motion by removing the office space and interior walls from the renovation bid.
Hunter said that his business would generate $1 million per year in revenue and that that type of operation would require at least 2,000 square feet of office space.
After the commission heard Hunter's request to include office space, it rejected Moody's amendment to the motion that removed the office space and interior walls from the renovation by a 4-1 vote.
Once the motion carried, Commissioners Erv Hodges and Moody voted against Nalbandian's original motion, which included a larger door.
ON THE AGENDA
Set an Oct. 6 public hearing for The Hawk, 1409 Ohio St., to approve a drinking establishment license.
Authorized the city manager's office to negotiate a contract with Di Carlo/B.A. Green Construction Managers for construction manager services for the indoor aquatic center.

A KU alumnus wants to help the Lawrence music scene reach the 21st century.
Beginning at 9 tonight and every Wednesday night, disc jockey Ray Velasquez will be spinning electronic dance music at the Hi-Jimx Lounge, 1117 Massachusetts St. Velasquez also plays host of 105.9 the Lazer's "Nocturnal Transmissions" radio show.
"There is not another progressive type of music being played in Lawrence," Velasquez said. "There is no place for sexy, intelligent people to go and dance."
Velasquez graduated from the University of Kansas in 1983 with a broadcast management degree in the School of Journalism.
the school of the术院
Velasquez worked as a DJ for
KUJH while he attended the University.
After graduating from the University, he worked as a free-lance DJ, playing at friends' house parties and playing a series of events called "Mindflux" at the Outhouse, 1823 N. 1500 Road.
Velasquez also started the "Mondo Disco" night at the Granada, 1020 Massachusetts St., which lasted from 1983 to 1995.
"Sabatoge" is the name for Velasquez's newest event at the HiJux Lounge.
Although tonight is the show's opening event, Velasquez is well known for his influence on the local music scene.
"I think he's one of the top DJs in the area," said John Orcutt, Hutchinson senior and KJKH DJ. "He knows his stuff. He's been doing it for awhile."
Velasquez has spun in well-
known clubs in New York City and Miami.
The Hi-Jinx Lounge will be one of the smaller venues Velasquez has played in.
Velasquez said he liked the small intimate space of the lounge for his new show.
Velasquez said he wanted to focus on the emotional content of the music rather than the technical side.
"I want to throw a monkey wrench at the perception of modern music as well as to set new standards for modern music." Velasquez said.
"The music could be used as a social lubricant for people at the show." Velasquez said.
Low oil prices are a mixed blessing
Kansan staff writer
By Liz Wristen
Once a week, Josh Holzwarth, Salina junior, makes a trip to the Zarco 66 gasoline station, Ninth and Iowa streets, to fill up his gas tank. Recently, Holzwarth noticed that his gasoline bills weren't as steep as they had been.
The reason: Low oil prices are creating lower gas prices but also are creating problems for petroleum producers.
Tim Carr, head of the Kansas Geological Survey's petroleum research section, said that lower oil prices had caused many changes in oil production.
"While the supply of oil is high, the prices are down," Carr said.
Kansas is one of the biggest oil producers, ranked about seventh in the nation, Carr said. Kansas also is a tremendous gas producer.
Prices in Kansas have seen many changes during the past few months. With oil costing about $13 a barrel this month, gas prices have dropped to about 89 cents a gallon for unleaded gasoline at the Texaco Self Service gas station, 1415 W. Sixth Street.
When a barrel of oil sells below $15, the oil companies lose money on the barrel because it costs the company more than $15 to lift the oil out of the ground, Carr said.
"Prices have fluctuated a little bit over the past few months," said Rusty Gill, owner of the Hillcrest Amoco Food Shop at Ninth and Iowa. "But our customers and business has remained approximately the same."
The immediate reason that oil prices have experienced price fluctuations is the Asian economic crisis, Carr said. Those foreign economies are in need of the oil but can't afford it.
oy the change in prices when it comes to paying taxes.
"Essentially, this affects people in Kansas because they will have to continue to pay the oil and gas taxes, property taxes and income taxes," Carr said. "Money from these taxes go to supporting the oil and gas supplies, as well as the roads, streets and public schools in the state of Kansas."
Kansas residents may be affected
The decrease in gas prices is bad news for Kansas' 6,000 petroleum industry employees, who might worry about job security, but the decrease is good news for gasoline buyers, who can purchase gasoline at lower prices, Carr said.
at lower prices, I agreed that the low price was good news for consumers. "I think it's great because I spend less money on gas," he said. "I'm worried about those people working in the oil industry, but at the same time, I think that prices are always going to fluctuate, no matter what."
Senate to discuss city-wide program for transportation
By Seth Jones Kansan staff writer
Tonight, members of Student Senate want to talk about something that has an effect on the lives of KU students — city-wide transportation.
Kevin Voder, student body president, said he wanted Senate to discuss such issues more often.
"This is something I've wanted to work on," he said. "Less time discussing how many 32 cent stamps one student group can get, and more time discussing substantive issues that affect the student body."
senators will present arguments in favor and against city-wide transportation. Senate will then decide what position to take.
Yoder wants to see Senate consider all aspects of the issue.
"Hopefully, Student Senate will get into a good debate about this," he said.
The transportation discussion will take place during the issues agenda, something Senate hasn't used often in the past, Yoder said.
Once a decision is made about what stance to take, it's turned over
to Legislative Director Korb Maxwell. If Senate decides that action should be taken, Maxwell will lobby City Commission for the change.
Sticking with topics that affect students, Senate will vote on a resolution concerning Hollywood Theaters.
Hollywood Theaters decided not to renew its lease on Hillcrest 5 Theatres, 925 iowa St. The lease expires Sunday. Hillcrest 5 Theatres is a dollar theater.
The resolution would ask Hollywood Theaters to continue offering dollar movies in Lawrence or to offer a discount to Lawrence students.
Last week, the resolution passed without problems through committees.
Also on the agenda for tomorrow's meeting is guest speaker David Katzman. Katzman is the chairman of the American studies department and will speak to Senate about the ongoing commercialization that he claims is taking place at the University of Kansas.
tomorrow's meeting is at 6 p.m. at the Big 12 Room in the Kansas Union and is open to everyone.

Soldiers meet opposition
South African troops killed
The Associated Press
MASERU, Lesotho South African soldiers invading Maseru yesterday met unexpected resistance, and five soldiers died in heavy fighting, the South African military said.
The troops secured military bases and the royal palace, but battles with Lesotho soldiers persisted throughout the day. At least nine soldiers were wounded.
In addition, the bodies of five Lesotho citizens were brought to the capital's Queen Elizabeth Hospital, which also treated 54 people for bullet wounds.
At the border, supporters of the rebel troops set a barricade on fire and taunted the South Africans that crossed into Lesotho, bringing attack helicopters, mortar units and armored personnel carriers.
The action follows weeks of opposition-party demonstrations about allegations of election-rigging and an army rebellion. It is South Africa's first major post-apartheid military intervention.
Lesotho, an impoverished kingdom slightly smaller than Maryland with a population of 2 million people, is surrounded by South African territory and dependent on its economy. The intervention follows fruitless weekend efforts by South African mediators to bring the government and opponents together.
Mangosuthu Buthelezi,
South Africa's home affairs
minister said Lesotho
Prime Minister Pakalitha
Mosisil called on regional
powers to intervene
because he believed a coup
was imminent.
Yesterday, protesters fire
bombed government buildings, looters rampaged downtown and cars with South African license plates were stoned in wake of the military intervention.
The 60 to 70 American citizens living in Maseru were told to stay indoors, U.S. Ambassador Katherine Peterson said.
Officials said the South African force secured Lesotho military headquarters, the main air force base, the central business district and neighborhood where most diplomats and Cabinet members lived.
Under apartheid, South Africa's rulers sent troops to take part in wars and to pursue government opponents, particularly in Lesotho and Botswana. But because all-race elections in 1994, South Africa had stuck to a policy of peaceful mediation in African conflicts.
The mobilization caps weeks of unrest by opposition demonstrators who claimed May elections swept by the Lesotho Congress Party were rigged.

U.S.-Japan talks bring promises, hopes
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — In a show of sympathy for Japan's economic predicament, President Clinton said yesterday that while the world wanted Tokyo to kick-start its long-slumping economy, he was willing to give the Japanese government leeway to do "what is politically possible."
Clinton remarked to reporters after a one-hour private conversation with Prime Minister Keizo Obuchi. It was their first meeting since Obuchi took office July 30 with promises to spur Japanese economic growth and stabilize its weak banking system.
"They have to work out what is politically possible," Clinton said, alluding to disagreement in Tokyo about how to stimulate the economy and to the shaky state of Obuchi's compromise with opposition parties last week to deal with billions of dollars in bad bank debt.
Reporters also tried to question Clinton about the Monica Lewinsky affair. He responded merely, "I don't have anything
to add to whatever the White House is saying." Clinton said, as he has often recently, that he is focusing on official business.

sought to keep his focus on foreign policy. Yesterday's U.S.-Japanese talks lasted about three hours, including a working luncheon and produced no breakthroughs. The two sides issued joint statements pledging to cooperate on civilian uses for Global Positioning System satellites and on the Year 2000 computer conversion problem.
Aides said the two leaders got on well, agreeing quickly to call each other by their first names.

messages from the administration that Japan, mired in its worst recession in 50 years, must deal more aggressively with its own economic problems to help lift its troubled Asian neighbors from their own steep recessions.
Obuchi: Makes no promises about banking reforms.
In Tokyo, Japanese stocks rebounded on hopes Obuchi would promise Clinton more forceful steps to boost the economy. In their talks at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel in midtown Manhattan, the leaders agreed that effective action by Japan was essential, but Obuchi offered no assurances that new remedies were in the near future.
Presidential press secretary Mike McCurry said that while Clinton stressed urgency in his private discussions with Obuchi, the president wanted the American public to appreciate Jaan's difficulties.
"They have unique challenges" that Americans need to understand, Clinton told reporters.
In his brief remarks, Obuchi was noncommittal about prospects for getting banking reforms passed.
"I'm neither optimistic nor pessimistic on this," Obuchi said. He added: "I am convinced that we will be able to do something."
Clinton invited Obuchi to visit the United States early next year, and Obuchi accepted.
Minimum-wage increased denied by U.S. Senate
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The Senate yesterday rejected a $1 election-year increase in the federal hourly minimum wage pushed by Sen. Edward Kennedy and other Democrats.
By a 54-44 vote, senators killed the proposal, which would have raised the minimum wage earned by some 12 million Americans to $6.15 Jan. 1, 2000. The first 50-cent increase would have taken effect next New Year's Day.
TRUMP
The House has not acted on such an increase.
Kennedy: Pushes for $1 increase in minimum waage.
Kennedy, D-Mass...
had pushed to have his proposal adopted as an amendment to legislation to overhaul the personal bankruptcy laws and make it harder for people to sweep away their debts.
The strategy was similar to the one used by Democrats in 1996, when they held up action on other legislation until Republicans agreed to vote to raise the federal minimum, then $4.25 an hour, to $5.15 by September 1997.
Kennedv said a new increase was needed
to help "hard-working Americans who deserve a living wage." At a time of unparalleled prosperity, people who work in factories, restaurants, hotels, retail businesses and in other modest jobs actually have seen their purchasing power eroded, he said.
Workers earning the minimum wage make an average $10,700 a year — $2,900 below the official poverty level for a family of three. Kennedy noted.
"Giving low-wage workers an additional 50 cents an hour can make all the difference," he said. "It can help to buy groceries or pay the rent or defray the cost of job training courses at the local community college. The need is real. Raising the minimum wage can keep families out of soup kitchens and homeless shelters."
Opponents said an increase would hurt small businesses and cause unemployment.
It "could actually have an adverse impact upon our economy" and could cause unemployment "that hurts the low-income workers the hardest," Sen. Rod Grams, R-Minn., said before the vote.
Sen. James Jeffords, R-Vt., cited statistics showing that more than half of minimum-wage workers lived in families with annual incomes exceeding $25,000 and that the majority of the workers were young, single and childless.
But Democrats countered that since the last federal wage increase took effect a year ago, new jobs have blossomed.
Boeing wins air force base
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Divvying up the spoils of a closing air force base in California, the Pentagon on Monday announced its intention to award the depot's repair missions to a government-private sector consortium that plans to shift the work to Texas and Utah.
A partnership of the Boeing Co. and Hill Air Force Base near Ogden, Utah, won the contract valued at $1.1 billion in nine years, including a three-year option. The partners prevailed against a team led by Lockheed Martin Corp., which would have kept in California the work now performed at McClellan AFB near Sacramento.
Boeing will do its share of the work at its new aircraft maintenance center in San Antonio on the grounds of the closing KLYF AEB. Maintenance of the Air Force's KC-13 tankers, in a contract Boeing valued at $500 million in nine years, could mean as many as 800 jobs to the city.
HILL AFB will gain repair of the A-10 attack jet and perform maintenance on aircraft hydraulic, electronics and instrumentation subsystems.
The Utah base would gain a similar number of jobs.
The competition for McClellan proved sensitive for the Clinton administration, which was accused of meddling in the process by enticing Lockheed Martin to enter the bidding, presumably to save jobs in vote-rich California. Campaigning in 1996, President Clinton had vowed to protect the California jobs.
Darleen Druyan, the Air Force official in charge of acquisition and management, said that politics was not a factor in selecting the Boeing-Utah bid.
The contract calls for a one-year transition, beginning immediately, followed by a five-year contract with the potential of an option for three more years.
The contract award remains in provisional status, however. A formal award will not be granted until the General Accounting Office completes a review of the circumstances surrounding the McClellan competition.
Druyan said the contract would result in savings of $638 million in nine years, freeing money for much-needed weapons modernization and readiness improvements.

Parking space demand remains high; supply low
By Seth Jones Kansan staff writer
The battle continues. Each day, students, faculty, staff and visitors scramble to find parking spaces for which demand outweighs supply.
Donna Hultine, assistant director of parking, said students needed to understand that the parking department oversold the lots.
"So far, we have sold 6,018 yellow parking permits," she said. "We have 5,034 available spots for students, and that is including 1,000 spots at the Lied Center."
Last year, the Parking Department sold 6,388 permits for the entire year. Hultine said that she wasn't sure exactly how many spots had been sold at this time last year but that she was sure that there had been many more yellow permits sold this year at this point.
"Sometimes I feel like I'm selling swampland," Huline said. "But if students want to continue driving to class, they need to get here early to find a spot."
Adam Rutledge, Bloomington, Ill., junior, said students were ruthless when searching for parking.
Inere are some pretty cut-throat students out here," he said. "I've seen people waiting for spots with their blinkers on, and then someone just cuts right past them to steal their spot."
Rutledge said that only twice had he been able to
find a parking space in the lot behind the Kansas Union.
"I'm also dealing with angry visitors to the museum who can't find a spot," she said. "There is no designated parking for the Natural History Museum. There is absolutely not enough parking here."
"Usually, I'm out there fighting with the construction guys," he said.
Students are not the only ones with parking woes. Parking can be sparse for faculty and staff as well.
Beth Huerter, visitor services manager at the Natural History Museum, said she would have to be on campus by 7:45 a.m. if she wanted a decent spot.
Hultine said there had been suggestions about ways to cure the jammed lots, none of which she had liked.
"Some people want us to not sell permits to freshmen. Another suggestion is to not sell permits to people who live within a certain radius of campus."
"If we didn't sell permits to freshmen, attendance might drop. I'd only have a bunch of empty residence hall lots if I did that, too," she said. "And hopefully people who live close to campus are already riding the bus or walking. Hopefully they aren't driving
Hultine said she didn't want to implement any rules that would have a negative effect on the University.
Park and Ride gets praise for students' convenience
By Seth Jones
Kansan staff writer
Marielle Monteaux, Lawrence junior, sat on the curb and studied in front of the Lied Center as she waited for a bus to take her to campus. Her car was 50 yards away.
"I love it; it's so convenient," she said. "Last year, I'd have to get here an hour early for class just to find a parking spot."
Monteau is one of the nearly 200 students who is using the new Park-and-Ride system. Students park their cars in Lot E of the Lied Center and wait for one of the six to eight buses that stops by each hour. Park-and-Ride passes cost $120 this year.
So far, Nicole Skalla, transportation coordinator, said she had been pleasantly surprised by the program.
"I didn't think it'd sell like this," she said. "But we're very happy with the turnout."
Skalla said Park and Ride didn't work perfectly from the start.
"We had some initial kinks, but we've worked those problems out," she said. "We had some students complaining about not knowing what bus to get on, but with the signs we've got, we're avoiding confusion."
Jenny Schierbaum, Chariton, Iowa, sophomore, said she was frustrated with Park and Ride at the start of the semester.
Christina Harms, Wichita sophomore, said she used Park and Ride every time she went to campus. Last year, she paid for a parking permit and a bus pass.
“In the beginning, all the bus drivers wanted to skip over the Lied Center, so I'd have to walk over the bridge to get a bus to pick me up,” she said. “But now, the bus drivers so over there just like they do everywhere else.”
She tried the same method this year but without much luck.
"Last year, I'd park in the lot behind Robinson, close to Naismith, and catch the bus to campus there," she said.
"There were so many people looking for a spot, the parking lot was like a zoo. Most of the time, I'd end up having to park at the church across from Oliver Hall, and here I was paying for this yellow permit," Harms said. "So my roommate talked me into switching to Park and Ride and saved me about $75."
James Tsai, El Dorado senior, also lives off of the bus route and has to drive to get to class.
"I was so fed up with the parking lots, but out here I'm guaranteed a parking spot," he said. "I really think this is a great idea."
Genie Kingsbury drives one of the buses on the Lied Center route and said that Park and Ride was popular with the students.

Stayin' alive '70s style
Disco era influences linebacker's clothing
BARRON 54

A red, white and blue mesh University of Kansas football jersey is not the only piece of clothing Kansas linebacker Steve Bratten owns.
In fact, Bratten has been known to cruise Lawrence in polyester bell-bottoms and butterfly-collar shirts. He dresses this way because he formulated a minor obsession with the '70s decade since his high school days in Colorado.
"It it's just a cool era," he said. "When I was in high school up in Colorado, we used to go to some places in Boulder, and they'd have '70s night, and people would wear big wigs and polyester suits."
Bratten's clothing style has influenced some of his friends. He has convinced sophomore wide receiver Tanner Hancock to jump on the '70s bandwagon.
But not all of Bratten's friends are willing to experiment for his sake.
Bradten's roommate, free safety Chad Coellner, said he would go along with things only to a certain extent.
"He tried to get me to dress up once for this Bahama-Mama party," Coelner said. "The only thing I would put on was this huge Afro wig, this Captain-Caveman lookin' wig."
Bratten's clothes are not the only thing that reflect his addiction to the disco era. His room is a shrine to '70 decor.
"It's funny," Coelner said. "You go up to his room, and he's got all these beads hanging from his ceiling."
"The other wall is just a mixture of little paintings all over the wall of God knows what," Coellner said. "If you ask him what it is, he says it's the life story of Elvis."
Bratten also has painted his walls — each wall a different color, in homage to the 70s. One wall is bright yellow, another bright blue and a third bright red.
The decor is enhanced by the pink carpet and Mr. Bones, a skeleton painted psychedelic colors perched atop a pedestal.
Bratten even has ventured briefly into the world of lamb-choon sideburns
He shaved them at the request of football coach Terry Allen.
Even though Lawrence residents are more than accustomed to strange clothing, some people still find Bratten's wardrobe a bit odd.
"People generally do a double-take." Bratten said. "If I saw somebody dressed like that, I'd think it was cool."
Bratten finds "70s clothing the most interesting part of that decade.
"It's hilarious lookin'," Bratten said. "These people would just go all out wearing really tight clothes and all this jewelry, and it kind of looked ridiculous. But it's just cool clothes; I just like it."
Kansas' Bratten honored for his work with children

Kanson sportswriter
Senior linebacker Steve Bratton has been named to the American Football Coaches Association Good Works Team for his work with children from Centennial Elementary School.
Bratten joined the program with junior fullback Tyrus Fontenot.
"I guess about a year ago, Tyrus came up with the idea that he was interested in doing something like that, and I thought it sounded like a good idea," Bratten said.
important that players work in the community.
"It's monumental," he said. "It's a great thing for him and a great thing for us to have him involved that way. We're anxious to have our players involved in the community."
Eleven players from NCAA Division I-A teams received the award.
Coach Terry Allen said it was
"The Good Works Team attempts to recognize those student-athletes who go above and beyond in service to others," said Grant Teaff, AFCA Executive Director. "The AFCA is proud to honor those who have a positive
impact in their communities."
Bratten enjoys the program.
"It's just a good thing," he said.
"You feel like you're helping out. You're making a difference for somebody."
Terry Allen said yesterday that Dariss Lomax was academically ineligible and would not play for the Javahaws this year.
Linebacker Andrew LeClair will be out two or three games with an injured knee.
Defensive lineman Dion Rayford practiced yesterday but has only about a 50 percent chance of playing this weekend.

Brinkley, freshman cross country runner, is a member of the United States Junior Triathlon team. She placed 25th and was the top American finisher at the World Junior Triathlon Championships in Switzerland Aug. 22-23.

Kansan sportswriter
For Sara Brinkley, running is the easy part.
"It's nice to be back here because I only have to concentrate on one sport," Brinkley said. "It saves me a lot of time."
Although Brinkley is proud of her accomplishment, she said it felt good to be back in Lawrence and running for the Jayhawks.
The triathlon consists of a 1500-meter swim, 40-kilometer bike race and a 10-kilometer run. Brinkley said that training for such a gruelling event was a year-round commitment.
For the past four summers, Brinkley has traveled to the United States Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, Colo., for five weeks to train with other U.S. junior triathletes.
Although the training shortens her
This summer, Brinkley competed in world championship qualifying meets against seven other Americans. Four were chosen. Brinkley and three other Americans traveled to Lausanne, Switzerland, where they competed against 107 other countries recognized by the International Olympic Committee.
The triathlon will be recognized as an Olympic sport for the first time at the 2000 games in Sydney, Australia.
"I enjoy it because it's much easier to focus for training there than it is at home," Brinkley said. "Plus, I'm with people who are in the same boat as I am training-wise."
summer vacation, Brinkley said she
enjoyed the time she spent in Colorado.
Although the U.S. team already has been chosen for the 2000 games, Brinkley has her sights on 2004 and 2008.
"I always wanted to go to the Olympics as a child," Brinkley said. "Now that I have the chance, I'm going to do my best to take advantage of it."
United States Junior National Team coach Michelle Blessing said that Brinkley had both the talent and experience to achieve her Olympic dream.
"I'm going to take a little break now since I just got done peaking for world's and to make sure I don't get burnt out," Brinkley said. "I'll probably start training again around Christmas break."
Cross country coach Gary Schwartz said Brinkley had helped the team.
"The biggest thing she can provide the rest of the team is mental toughness in the aspects of training," Schwartz said, "Another thing I like about Sara is that she is a real positive person. She always brings a lot of energy that helps to excite the rest of the team."
Brinkley said that her father and older sister had competed in triathlons.
"You always hope someone in the junior program will step up as the top performer, and Sara has done that," Blessing said. "Training for an event like the triathlon takes a lot of dedication and Sara has a lot going on in her
life right now. Hopefully when she is done with school, she will have more time to dedicate to training."
Brinkley will concentrate on cross country this fall.
"I just know I competed in my first triathlon when I was seven," Brinkley said. "I guess I was just carrying on a little bit of the family tradition."
Brinkley continued to compete in triathlons while attending Winfield High School. She also won two state high school cross country championships.
"Our high school program was pretty intense," Brinkley said. "That's helped me in my training a lot."
Commentary
Reporters should use better judgment when writing about athletic recruitment
reporting on recruits has become a joke of the profession.
Case in point.
Roy said it was some of the best bread he had ever eaten. It was not long after this visit, and praise of the bread, that Gooden committed.
It was reported that when basketball coach Roy Williams visited recruit Andrew Gooden, who committed to Kansas, Gooden's uncle, a chef, treated Williams to a helping of banana nut bread.
Coincidence? I do not know.
In high school, a Navy recruiter called and asked me what my plans were after high school. I told him I was going to the University of Kansas.
That excited him.
Navy recruiter: "Those Jaybirds are great."
Me: "That's Javhawk.'
Me. That's Jayhawk.
Nevy recruiter "Whatever."
Sufficed to say, I put my naval career on hold.
P
Imagine what would have happened if Roy had slipped during the pivotal bread moment.
Gooden's Uncle: "Coach, have some of this warm bread."
Spencer Duncan
Rov:"I love banana bread."
Gooden's Uncle: "But this is banana NUT bread."
Roy:"Whatever."
Obviously this was a crucial moment, but was it important enough to report? How was it relevant?
Reporting on college recruiting is news, but it seems as if things are out of hand.
Gooden's Uncle: "Coach Krzyszewski at Duke, he likes the nuts."
Andrew Gooden: "I'm going to Duke."
Instead of just learning who is recruiting whom, reporters are chasing down the inane details.
What food did a coach eat during the visit? What is the recruit's favorite color? What does the athlete's bedroom look like? Does the player like nuts?
These things are interesting, but the methods to obtain the information border on harassment. So-called recruiting experts and reporters pester players, prep coaches, parents, girlfriends, teachers and neighbors. They call these people every other day until a player makes a decision.
As if picking a college is not tough enough.
Nearly two years ago, an annoyed Roy announced he would no longer talk about recruiting. Part of the decision was because he was limited by NCAA regulations about what he could say but also because he was fed up with the harassment he felt existed.
Roy takes some of this too personally and should loosen up a bit, however, he is partly right. Once reporters latch onto a recruit, they do not let up.
Players have been known to dismiss a school because of what they read. Some get disgusted with the media covering a certain school and decide they do not want to face that during their collegiate career.
Coaches get upset when papers report their school is recruiting a player because other players learn they are not the only ones being woed by the school. Coaches can lose the upper hand when that happens.
But coaches need to deal with that. Reporting on recruits must be done.
To a degree, coaches' discouragement is understood. There is no reason to call a player or a coach every other day for three months to ask if the player has made a decision yet. They do not need to call everyone who has ever met the recruit to see if the athlete wears boxers or briefs.
it was interesting to read that Gooden's uncle served banana nut bread. There are many cases when knowing the small details offer fascinating insight into the life of a player.
There has to be a middle ground. After all, they are still young kids.
While the bread story was told voluntarily, reporters have discovered similar stories by hounding players.
Reporters need to use more discretion in recruiting stories. I should know, I'm one of them.
Duncan is a Topeka senior in journalism and English.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Sept. 23).
You can make the money come in this year if you start with a solid plan. Do not let everyone know what you are thinking. You will give away your advantage. Figure out how to set up the dominoes from now through October.
Aries (March 21-April 19) : Today is a 5.
This is a challenging day to say the least which will bring out your aggressive side. Scorpio and Aries have different ways of controlling, so there is a bit of a crash when both conditions are in effect. You think of it more as competition than danger and you are more likely to succeed.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Todav is a 4.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): You are a 4.
The good news is that you could have a partner helping you with some of your more difficult chores. The bad news is that this person may want to help by telling you what to do. If you are going to let someone lead you, make sure it is in the direction you want to go.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 6. You will be able to concentrate a little easier than usual. You are very creative, but it sometimes takes you too long to get anything accomplished. Today, accomplishment is your major theme, so settle down and make things happen.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is a 6.
Do you have to share your private space with the whole family? You need a little nook you can call you own, someplace where you can relax undisturbed. If you already do not have a place like that, figure out how to make one.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 4.
Leo July 23-Aug. 22: Today is a 4.
Something needs your attention. A decision must be made, but you do not have to make it right now. If you do, you are liable to make a big mistake. Somebody is pushing you, but it's not in a direction you want to go. Hold off until you know as much as the other person does, if not more.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Today is a 6.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 6.
Today and tomorrow the moon you learn more quickly than usual. Scorpio's energy helps you concentrate.
You are pretty good at doing that anyway, but now, you are borderline awesome. Ignore distractions as they pop up and focus on what you are trying to learn.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 3.
The sun is in your sign, and it feels great. The moon has gone into Scorpion, however, and Scorpion will not let you sit still. Scorpion is high energy and very decisive. Right now, it is pulling you to make some big financial decisions You have been thinking about it long enough. Act now.
Squittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21); Today is a 6.
You are in a very powerful position. You may decide that your role during this next phase is to be the decision maker, and you could be right. You will be surprised to find that some of the decisions are ones you have avoided making.
You are feeling friendly and outgoing, but consider the consequences before you speak too freely. Make sure you have got your facts right, and pay attention to how the information is going to play. Someone listening could have a hidden agenda.
Capricorn (Dec, 2 Jan, 19): Today is a 6.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 7.
Captain De. 2.31. 1979. Today is 4th
Once you and your friends agree about a course of action, it will be easy to talk others into going along.
Do not bother with all the details. Just focus on the objective you will achieve and when you will achieve it. With enough conviction, you will get your point across and make your sale.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 7.
For the next few weeks, you will notice you have a better sense of humor. You know everything will work out somehow. If you are in a down mood right now, no big deal. You will be up again soon. Remember that today you will clash with an older person.
C
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 6.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today's a G.
Opportunities are opening up. It is as if you are in a candy store and you want everything you see. You cannot have it all. Some of it might not be good for you, and all of it would be a disaster. You would make yourself sick. Avoid that today by focusing on your goal. Once that is clear, the proper choices will will

LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Louisville's men's basketball team was banned from postseason play for one year and placed on probation for three years yesterday by the NCAA.
Louisville basketball punished for misconduct
The NCAA, punishing the university for one infraction involving basketball and eight involving volleyball, also reduced the number of scholarships for the men's basketball and women's volleyball programs.
The Infractions Committee could have imposed harsh punishments, including shutting down one or both programs for one year.
the basketball citation especially was serious because of allegations that the program's five-year probation may have been violated. Louisville won the national championship in 1980 and 1986.
The allegation involved arrangements made by assistant coach Scooter McCray in 1996 to keep player Nate Johnson's father from being evicted from a Louisville hotel. McCray admitted giving his personal credit card to the Wilson Im to assure Fred Johnson wouldn't be evicted. However, McCray said he never intended to pay the bill himself.
Note: Horoscopes have no basis in scientific fact and should be read for entertainment purposes only.
The NCAA released its findings in April in a letter of inquiry which labeled the alleged violations as "major," including a claim of "lack of institutional control."
Since the current investigation began, the university has transferred McCray to an administrative post and suspended volleyball coach Leonard Yelin for a month without pay. An assistant women's volleyball coach was reprimanded and the volleyball team's preseason trip to Japan was canceled.

Dixon enjoying her job
Former women's basketball player happy with WNBA
CAMOON CLUB LAWRI
Tamecka Dixon holds the picture that commemorates her selection as an All-American. Dixon just finished her second season with the WNBA's Los Angeles Sparks. Contributed photo.
By Sam Mellinger
Kansas sportswriter
Just two years out of college, former Kansas basketball player Tamecka Dixon thinks she has found the perfect way to make a living.
"My job is basketball," the Los Angeles Sparks point guard said. "I like to say it's the best job in America."
She has a point. During the seven-month WNBA off-season, she lives in her native New Jersey and is able to work out regularly and spend time with friends.
Much like television's Cheers, everybody in Linden, N.J., seems to know Dixon's name, and many want an autograph, picture or just to talk.
"All the time, it's cool," she said.
"With media and fans, we try to give more of ourselves. You see how some of the NBA guys act; they're uncomfortable. I go out to eat a lot with friends, and people will come up to me. Sometimes you just want to be with your friends, but it's good to be recognized for what you're doing."
When the WNBA is in season — from May to September — she lives in Los Angeles. Last season, Dixon ranked fifth in the league in scoring (16.2 points per game), eighth in free-throw accuracy (77.9 percent), and added 2.5 assists and 1.1 steals per game.
Dixon's success in professional basketball puts a smile on the face
of Kansas coach Marian Washington.
"I'm very, very proud of her," Washington said. "It does my heart good to see her achieve what she's done."
Ditto for the Kansas basketball team.
"I think she represents a commitment to our program," Washington said. "When we make commitments to these players, we tell them it's a lifetime commitment. When you have players who are wanting
to come back and visit, it speaks very highly of your program."
The former coach and player keep in regular contact.
SPARKS
"I love that," Dixon said. "I spent four years with Coach Washington, and if anybody knows what's going
on with me, it's her."
has become friends with the Lakers' Shaquille O'Neal, Kobe Bryant, Derek Fisher and Eddie Jones, among others.
"I've been to a couple parties that Shaquille did," she said. "I'm really close to a couple of guys on the Lak
ers. It's like a family."
The friendships with NBA players was one reason many in the WNBA wanted to form a union and join their male counterparts, she said.
"The union issue is killing us," Dixon said. "We'll definitely unionize, but salaries won't be our big thing. We basically want better health benefits."
The debate about unionizing is one of the negatives Dixon has encountered in her two WNBA seasons, but she expects no sympathy.
LOOK HERE!!
"There's always a bad side, too. We've been through three coaches, and sometimes players get cut for no apparent reason," she said. "But you've got to deal with it. It's still been great to have the opportunity to play in the country and make a living. It been a blessing."

Nothing magical about Wizards' losing season
Commentary
The Wizards ended any hope of salvaging their season Saturday night. Get ready for some changes.
With a 1-0 loss to the Dallas Burn that typified the bad luck (punctuated by a penalty kick by preki that Dallas saved) and lack of organization that has been prevalent this season, the team guaranteed a fifth-place finish out of the six teams in the Western Conference.
The luck you can't change. The organization you can, and that is why head coach Ron Newman likely will resign shortly following the end of the season.
Newman is funny and likable. A wonderful evaluator of talent and a one-man public relations machine. He has never been accused of being an overbearing coach on the technical side of the game.
He expects players to have their skills and a comprehension of the game by the time they get to him as a professional. He tells them where to play and expects them to do the rest.
With more than 700 victories, at least 200 more than any other coach in U.S. professional soccer history, one would think it hard to argue with him.
Trouble is, it just wasn't working any more.
In the past two seasons, the Wizards won on sheer force of attacking talent rather than by any
coherent strategy. As long as Preki and his teammates could keep scoring goals from individual explosions of skill rather than organized buildup, the Wizards could beat most teams in MLS most of the time.
By Year Three, though, this "strategy" seemed to be wearing thin. Preki often was too tired.
thanks to his spectacular but grueling off-season with the U.S. National Team and his disappointing stint with the United States team during the World Cup. Midfielder Mark Chung, a member of the
MLS "Best Eleven" last year, scored a paltry two goals this season and looked bad doing it.
Sam Pierron
Trigger-shy forward Digital Takawai moved in and out of the lineup. His most frequent replacement, Paul Wright, couldn't use his speed well enough to make a real impact.
Forward Paul Rideout and leading goal scorer Mo Johnston both were forced to play more defensive roles because of injuries, limiting their use and effectiveness in the
attack. When either were playing up front, the Wizards were much more effective in creating and converting chances.
While the Wizards' defensive problems from the previous two years seemed to be solved at times, there were alarming questions that rang out the whole year.
Team defensive player of the year was surely rookie right fullback Scott Vermillion from Olathe. From the moment he stepped onto the field, Vermillon's cultured long passes, exquisite crosses, deft touches and timely overlapping runs added to the Wizards' drives to the goal.
Unfortunately, the rest of the backline was inconsistent and the Wizards head into the off-season with a likely coaching change.
Who will stay, who will leave and who will be signed?
All of these questions can be best answered by the answer to another question: Who will be the next coach?
The rumor mill will say former U.S. coach Bob Gansler or current UCLA coach Sigi Schmid. Both are good candidates, but only time will tell if these rumors are accurate.
For questions or comments,
w write spierron@ukans.edu.
Pierron is an Olathe senior in political science.

McGwire fails to hit homer No. 66
The Associated Press
ST. LOUIS — Mark McGwire failed to add to his major-league-record 65 home runs but gave a sell-out crowd some drama with two warning-track fly balls in the St. Louis Cardinals' 4-0 victory against the National League Central Champion, the Houston Astros, last night.
McGwire has homered five times off of Houston pitching, and he came close to adding two more
against left-hander Mike Hampton.
McGwire drove a ball to the warning track in center in the first, then lined out to the track in left-center in the third.
In the sixth, relief pitcher Scott Elarton, who surrendered homer No. 40 July 12, needed only four pitches to get McGwire on a called third strike.
in the eighth, McGwire sent a foul liner into the seats off Doug Henry before striking out for the 152nd
Today, McGwire gets his second shot at Randy Johnson in 11 days. McGwire was 0-for-2 with a walk Sept. 12 in Houston and is 6-for-27 against his former Southern California teammate for his career. That includes two homers, with a 538-foot blast in 1997.
time.
The Cardinals won their sixth in a row as Matt Morris pitched a five-hitter and struck out 10 in his first major league shutout.
Ron Gant hit a two-run single in the first and a solo homer off Hampton (11-7) in the fourth. Luis Ordzaz squeezed home another run with the bases loaded in the sixth.

McGwire: Entertained the crowd with two close hits.
Sosa just misses going deep in Cubs' win
The Associated Press
MILWAUKEE — The Chicago Cubs ended their skid last night, even though Sammy Sosa couldn't stop his slump.
The Cubs moved into a tie for the National League wild-card spot, snapping a three-game losing streak with a 5-2 win against the Milwaukee Brewers.
Chicago is tied with New York, which lost to Montreal 5-3. The Cubs and Mets each have four games left.
Sosa failed to close in on Mark McGwire, holding at 63 home runs and leaving him in an for-21 drought.
Before striking out for the second time, Sosa hit a towering shot off
Brewers reliever Al Reyes in the seventh inning that just hooked foul down the left-field line.
Sosa went 0-for-4 with a walk. He has not gotten a hit and has struck out eight times since hitting homer No. 63 with a grand slam last Wednesday in San Diego.
Before his last three at-bats, Sosa had to wait as a new pitcher warmed up.
Sosa entered the game at sold-out County Stadium two homers behind McGwire, who also failed to go deep last night. The St. Louis slugger hit his 65th Sunday against the Brewers.
Terry Mulholland (6-5) pitched eight solid innings. He gave up one run on six hits, three by Mark Loretta.
the ninth off Cubs reliever Rod Beck.
Jeromy Burnitz hit his 38th homer in
At a time when the Cubs needed Sosa the most, Chicago's slugger hoped to regroup against his favorite pitching staff. Ten of Sosa's homers have come off the Brewers, his most against any team. Earlier this month, he connected for Nos. 59-62 against Milwaukee during a three-game series at Wrigley Field.
The Cubs play one more game at Milwaukee, with Sosa facing rookie Rafael Roque, before finishing with three games in Houston.
Sosa put a scare into the crowd in the second inving.
After he walked and took third on Gary Gaetti's double, Sosa scored on Mickey Morandini's sacrifice fly to
shallow center but slid right into catcher Bobby Hughes, taking a shin guard to his groin area. Sosa stayed down for a minute before getting up and returning to the dugout.

Anheuser-Busch picks rookie
Dale Earnhardt Jr. signs six-year deal with beer maker
The Associated Press
MOORESVILLE, N.C. — One year ago, Dale Earnhardt Jr. was trying to raise enough money to race each week in NASCAR's bush leagues. Now he has what is being hailed as the biggest sponsorship deal in Winston Cup history.
Earnhardt and Anheuser-Busch Inc. announced an agreement Monday for the driver to carry the Budweiser colors on his Winston Cup cars beginning next year and lasting through the 2004 season. According to several sources in the sport, the total value of the package makes it worth more than $10 million per year.
"We're sitting on a 22-year-old keg of dynamite," said Don Hawk, president of Dale Earnhardt Inc., and the man who negotiated the deal.
Hawk's assessment apparently is shared by corporate America. Hawk said Anheuser-Busch is one of five major U.S. companies negotiating to become the primary Winston Cup sponsor of Earnhardt, who has yet to run an event on stock car racing's premier circuit.
Earnhardt appears a little overwhelmed by all of the financial interest in someone who last year was running late model stocks Friday and Saturday nights for relatively paltry purses at small tracks in the Carolinas.
"Yeah, and we couldn't even raise 20 grand to run." he said, shaking his head.
But Earnhardt's struggling days are finished, thanks to a rookie season on NASCAR's Grand National circuit that has established him as the hottest new driver in stock car racing.
When officials at DEI decided to put Earnhardt in a Grand National car for 1998, the goal was for him to develop into a top-five driver by the end of the year. A real bonus, they thought, would be to win a race.
"He went a little further than we thought," Hawk said.
Earnhardt began the season by flipping his car on its roof at Daytona, with within two months he had won his first race and climbed into the points lead. He has won five more times, building his lead to 97 points heading into the final five races of the year. Earnhardt also leads the series in poles, laps led and money won.
By displaying the special talent exhibited for many years by his father, seven-time
Winston Cup champion
Dale Earnhardt, the younger
Earnhardt has
NASCAR
emerged as one of the sport's stars in waiting. Evidence of his status came Monday when the list of attendees at the sponsorship announcement included officials from NASCAR and series sponsor R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Co., two groups that rarely are represented at such affairs.
The event was held in the main lobby of DEI's 108,000-square-foot racing complex. Earnhardt and August A. Busch IV were escorted into the building by one of Anheuser-Busch's trademark eight-horse hitches of Clivedales.
Busch climbed down, looked at the several hundred people gathered in the lobby and broke into a wide smile.
Earnhardt plans to compete in five Winston Cup events next year while running a second full season on the Grand National circuit. He plans to move to Winston Cup racing full time in 2000.
"God bless NASCAR," he said. "Anheuser-Busch has found a partner who shares our passion for excellence."
"We're not bothered in the least bit by Dale's lack of Winston Cup experience," Busch said. "This is an exciting day for us. This relationship is really priceless."
Former Royals pitcher admitted to K.C. hospital
The Associated Press
KANSA'S CITY, Mo. — Royals Hall of Fame pitcher Dan Quisenberry was admitted to a local hospital yesterday morning, where he is resting comfortably, a Royals spokesman said.
Quisenberry, 45, underwent surgery in January and June to remove grade IV tumors from his brain. Grade IV is the most severe tumor type.
It was not immediately released why he was admitted.
Quisenberry's family asked the public not send cards or flowers but said they would appreciate pravers and thoughts.
Quisenberry was formally inducted into the Royals Hall of Fame in an on-field ceremony May 30.
The three-time All-Star, who used an unorthodox submarine pitching style, recorded 238 saves with the Royals from 1979 to 1988 and was 2-2 with one save in two World Series'. He still holds a share of the team's single-season save record with 45 in 1983.

RENO, Nev. — John Daly admits
he's scared.
Golfer fights alcoholism
The Associated Press
He says the kind of shakes that moved him to tears at a recent golf tournament in British Columbia occur almost daily.
But he also said Monday that he believed he was doing a better job than he was a year ago in dealing with his alcoholism.
"It's pretty much an everyday occurrence. Some days are better than others," Daly told reporters after a golf exhibition at Arrow Creek Golf Club.
"A lot of people still have them after being 20 years without a drink. So that scares me a little bit. But having them at that time is not good. It scared the hell out of me," he said about the chills and emotions that overcame him last month in the first round of the Greater Vancouver Open.
He said he took three weeks off to spend time with his wife and daughter in Palm Springs, Calif., and said he was looking forward to teaming with Tiger Woods and Mark O'Meara next month at the Dunhill Cup.
Daily appeared relaxed Monday, booming 330-drive drives and cracking jokes with Lee Trevino, Tom Watson and Fuzzy Zoeller.
"I didn't even play golf. I thought it was just time to take some time off." Daly said, after the best-ball charity event at the high desert course in the shadow of the Sierra Nevada.
"This was fun today. Golf's not fun when I'm out there on the tour playing right now. It's because of the way my body has changed."
Daly said cards and letters from fans and support from other alcoholics had been a big help.
"I'm not alone," he said. "Anybody who understands it would understand what I just said.
Dalv. 32. traded jabs throughout the
day with Zoeller, 46, and Trevino, 58 one of the leaders on the Senior PGA Tour.
"You all are talking about the Senior Tour. I just hope I'm alive when I'm 50," Daly said, prompting laughter from the contestants and an invitation-only gallery of several hundred.
—he drove it 377 yards on the last hole Monday —Daly acknowledged he got violent and liked to break things in the days when alcohol was getting the best of him.
Known for his powerful, long drives
“Especially windows in cars. That was my fun stuff when I was drinking. With my fists. When I was really mad and drunk, I used to do that,” he said. “I haven't done that in a while.”
Daly, who won the PGA Championship in 1991 and the British Open in 1995, said he played well early this year. But during his last six tournaments, he missed four cuts, withdrew once and was disqualified once.
"The putter just went," he said.
NBA talks stall; lockout continues
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — David Stern and Billy Hunter agreed almost two weeks ago that it was time to resume collective bargaining talks.
But when they tried to work out the details, the whole idea quickly fell apart.
Russ Granik, the deputy commissioner of the NBA, and Hunter, president of the players union, both acknowledged Monday that talks aimed at ending the lockout nearly resumed Sept. 10, though they differed about why such a meeting never took place.
"We invited players to come back to the table, and they declined," Granik said. "They said as long as we would be talking about a hard cap or some system that set a defined percentage of revenues to go toward player salaries, they didn't see any point of meeting."
Hunter said he proposed a small meeting, with four representatives from each side. But when Stern asked that the meeting be held when
the eight members of the owners labor committee were in town. Hunter declined.
"I just don't think it's progressive or beneficial when there are 40 people in the room," said Hunter, who nonetheless tried to call Granik on Monday to discuss moving the process forward.
Only one formal bargaining session has been held this summer, and the league is expected to begin canceling exhibition games later this week.
Training camps are due to open Oct. 6 and the regular season Nov. 3, but without a new collective bargaining agreement the league would be forced to cancel games because of a work stoppage for the first time in its history.
Both sides still are waiting for a decision from arbitrator John Feerick, who will rule on the players' grievance contending that some 220 players with $800 million worth of guaranteed contracts should be paid during the lockout.
Feerick's ruling is not expected
untilearly October.
The sides remain far apart on the main economic issue of the salary cap, with owners saying they need a new system that would not allow salary growth to continue to outpace revenue growth.
The owners haven't made a formal proposal since June, before the lockout began, and the players' most recent proposal, on Aug. 6 was rejected emphatically as Stern, Granik and six owners walked out of a bargaining session upon hearing it.
Hunter said the league had taken a longer look at that proposal since then and claimed that Granik told him that the players' newest ideas had substance.
Upon hearing that statement, Hunter said, he asked that the next negotiating session be kept small so that progress might be made.
"We're ready to bargain at any point," he said. "If somehow the occasion arises that it will be fruitful, we might invite them back again—even though they declined the last time we asked them."

CLINTON STATE PARK

Outdoor show ends on sour note
By Augustus Anthony Plazza
Kansas staff writer
Kappa Sigma fraternity will not be able to donate any money to charities this year from the money raised at Jayhawk Music Festival, its annual philanthropy project.
The fraternity made only enough money from the Sept. 12 festival to pay for concert expenses, which totaled $135,000.
The fraternity raised $75,000 for charities in the first three years of the festival. It donated $40,000 in 1995, $10,000 in 1996 and $25,000 in 1997.
"I'm upset that we can't make any donations to the charities," said Andy Klein, St. Louis senior and Kappa Sigma's festival organizer.
Klein said that the rising cost to put on an outdoor concert was the main reason the fraternity didn't make any money this year.
"Bands are more expensive now," Klein said. "It's hard to get a big name act and not spend as much money."
Klein said that Everclear, the headlining band for this year's festival, cost four times as much as what the fraternity paid for headliner 311 in 1995 and twice as much as it paid headliner Violent Femmes in 1996.
Klein said that the expensive bands also caused ticket prices to increase from 12.50 to $18.50 in the last four years. The fraternity might make some changes if it organizes the event next year.
Klein said that the fraternity would get smaller-name bands that wouldn't cost as much and would try to solicit more corporate sponsors for the event.
prior to the this year's concert, the fraternity said it would donate profits to Douglas County Aids Project, Health Care Access, Douglas County Red Cross, and Kansas Department of Parks and Wildlife.
The directors of the charities weren't disappointed when they didn't receive money because they hadn't been notified that they were to receive donations.
Cindy Hardgrove, executive director of the Douglas County Aids Project, said that she wasn't contacted by Kappa

Bar's new owner awaits approval
The Hawk has reopened, but the city doesn't want it open past midnight
Bv Chris Fickott
Kansan staff writer
The new owner of The Hawk, John Heleniak received a state liquor license Sept. 14, but he is waiting for the city to grant his bar all the privileges that come with a drinking establishment license.
When Helenik bought the bar, 1340 Ohio St., it was operating under a cereal malt beverage license, which is administered by the city. He then applied for a state drinking establishment license, which would allow his bar to close at 2 a.m. instead of midnight.
Michael All, Heleniak's attorney, said that The Hawk was operating under a temporary license from the city until the Lawrence City Commission could decide whether to grant the bar a drinking establishment license.
The commission could have granted the bar the license in full or with conditions at its Tuesday meeting.
because the commission wanted to set The Hawk's closing time at midnight instead of 2 a.m., it was required to give Heleniak 10 days notice.
The commission will meet again Oct. 6 to hear comments from the public and to make a decision about The Hawk's drinking establishment license.
David Corliss, director of legal services for the city, said that because Kansas operated on a dual-licensing procedure, both state and city liquor licenses were required for a drinking establishment.
Since Heleniak purchased The Hawk in September, he voluntarily has been closing it at midnight. All said.
All said that his client ultimately wanted to be granted all of the provisions that go along with a liquor license.
"The Hawk wants to stay open until 2 a.m.," he said. "As a gesture of goodwill to the neighborhood, we agreed to stay open until midnight."
All said drinking establishments were most profitable between 11:30 pm and 1:30 am. If the bar is forced by the city to close at midnight, Heleniak would lose out on

Marcy Francisco, president of the Oread Neighborhood Association, said that her organization didn't want to close the bar but that it would like to see conditions made to The Hawk's city license.
"The city has the authority to look beyond the abilities of a state license," she said.
At Tuesday's commission meeting, commissioner Erv Hodges suggested that The Hawk and other neighborhood bars be examined.
Hodges said the commission should determine a definition of a neighborhood bar and possibly set special regulations for such bars.

Cops in shops to check IDs of alcohol buyers
More undercover police to pose as employees in liquor stores today
By Keith Burner
Kansan staff writer
Minors purchasing alcohol may face greater risk today as Lawrence police increase the number of undercover officers in liquor stores.
Cops in Shops started in 1996. Undercover police officers pretend to be liquor store employees in an attempt to stop minors from purchasing alcohol. It was responsible for 26 arrests last fall.
The program is a cooperative effort between the Lawrence Police Department, the Kansas Drunk Driving Prevention Project and all Lawrence liquor stores, said April Marvin, state director of the prevention project.
Lawrence police increase efforts to stop minor consumption in the fall when students return to Lawrence.
Police would not reveal the number of officers in stores.
"Officers act like workers," Marvin said. "They clean or stock shelves until someone comes in who looks like a minor. When the person tries to purchase alcohol, he is carded and, if he's a minor, he's arrested."
Brian Buck, Kansas City, Kan., freshman questioned the effectiveness the program
"Say I walk into a store with a fake and ask the guy if he's a cop. Can they lie to you? Or if you ask, do they have to tell you the truth?"

would have in keeping minors from drinking.
"People are going to drink if they want to, and I don't see what cops in liquor stores can do to stop that," he said.
Buck also said he had some questions about what the police could, or couldn't do.
Marvin said that the program is not just targeting minors but also people 21 years old or older who purchase alcohol for minors. There would be officers staked outside the store to regulate this, she said.
Marvin said that the ultimate goal for the program was to stop drinking and driving.
"This program is just one piece of the pie in keeping drunk drivers off the street," she said.

Deadline to alter address is tomorrow for students
Tomorrow is the last day students will be able to change their school-year address in time for the mailing of the permits to enroll in spring semester classes.
To change where the University Registrar's Office sends documents to students during the school year, students can go to the registrar's window on the first floor of Strong Hall with their KUID, send a letter to the registrar with a signature or visit the registrar's Web site at www.ukans.edu/~registr.
To change an address on the Web, students must provide their social security number; KUID number; month, date and year of birth and e-mail address.
"The type one addresses of the students who live in the dorms are changed automatically," she said. "The students who need to worry about it are the ones living in fraternities, sororites or off campus."
Kathryn Tuttle, director of the freshman-sophomore advising center, said the address change was more important for students living off campus than for those living in the residence halls.

Miami City Ballet starts millennium countdown
The Lied Center will start its cultural Countdown to the Millennium with the Miami City Ballet at 8 tonight.
"I feel like an ambassador to the Latino community," said Jimmy Gamonet, a resident Peruvian choreographer of the company. "It is very exciting for us to show different angles of Latin influences."
Beginning this year, the Lied Center will highlight the performing arts of a different culture each year, starting with the Latin culture.
Gamonet told the Miami City Ballet tonight would perform Transantangos, a piece based on the music of the master of nuevo tango, Astor Piazzolla.
"I created Transtangts out of the company's intent to reach the Latin community in Miami," Gamonet said. "I chose a suite of tangos and fuse it with the academic vocabulary of ballet."
Gloria Flores, director of the office of minority affairs and multicultural
resource center, said that it was wonderful that an organization as prominent as the Lied Center took the initiative of promoting different groups that are influencing contemporary arts.
"I think it should be done every year and not only as a part of the countdown to the millennium." Flores said
Tickets for tonight's performance range from $29 to $35 for the public and $15 to $17.50 for students.

Student pleads not guilty to aggravated assault
An University of Kansas student pleaded not guilty to aggravated assault yesterday afternoon in Douglas County District Court.
Greg Lewis, Norfolk, Va., sophomore; was arrested Sunday night for allegedly driving his car through an anti-abortion display on Daisy Hill.
His preliminary hearing was set for
1:45 p.m. oct. 8 in district court.
Following his Sunday arrest, Lewis was booked into the Douglas County Jail, where he spent the night.
He was released Monday after he paid a $2,500 bond, a Douglas County Jail representative said.
In Sunday's incident, a display worker nearly was run over and a sign was destroyed, police said.
An 18-year-old Lawrence man died yesterday morning when the car he was driving flew through the air and smashed into two trees, ending a 15-block, high-speed chase down Ninth Street. Lawrence police said.
High-speed chase ends as driver hits tree, dies
Police said that Jance Blanco was driving west down Ninth Street when they tried to pull him over near the Avalon Street intersection.
Police said the car was moving between lanes and not obeying traffic signs, leading the officer to think that alcohol may have been involved.
When the officer pulled up behind him,
Branto drove an a high rate of speed.
The officer followed Blanco west on Ninth Street, where Blanco ran the stollight at the Iowa Street intersection and drove through a construction area just west of the street, police said.
Police then lost sight of the man because of road contours.
Police said they saw Blanco's car one last time as it topped the hill at the Chalk Hill Court intersection.
They regained sight of Blanco at the Lawrence Avenue intersection, where Blanco ran a stop sign.
About two hundred feet later, Blanco lost control of the car, struck a tree and riccoethed into another tree next door.
Blanco was dead at the scene, police said, but a passenger survived.

NATION McVeigh asks for appeal because of juror's remark
PATRICK
DENVER — Timothy McVeigh wants an appeals court to overturn his conviction in the Oklahoma City bombing because he thinks his trial was tainted
McVeigh: Says jurors improperly discussed verdict.
by a juror who said that the jurors all knew what the correct verdict was. McVeigh's lawyers asked the court Tuesday to rehear arguments that his conviction and death sentence should be overturned on grounds the remark may have influenced other jurors. McVeigh was sero-
tenced to die for the April 19, 1995, bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City. The explosion killed 168 people and injured more than 500 others
ON CAMPUS
A three-judge panel on the 30th U.S. Court of Appeals decided earlier this month that there was no misconduct when a juror apparently decided McVeigh's guilt before his trial was finished. The panel said the juror's comments were ambiguous.
During the trial last year, an alternate juror told a court clerk that jurors discussed which of them would decide the case and which would serve as alternates, and that one juror said: "It wouldn't be very hard. I think we all know what the verdict should be."
MeVeigh's lawyers are asking the full appeals court to rehear the claim, saying that the trial judge should have held an immediate hearing to determine if a mistrial was warranted.

Francisco said that she wasn't concerned that The Hawk now could serve hard liquor but that she was concerned with issues regarding the location of the bar, noise, lewd conduct and parking.
Francisco said that when she and some of the other members of the association moved to the Oread area, neighborhood bars such as The Hawk closed at midnight.
"It's not like this was ever zoned as a bar," she said. All that said he and Heleniak planned to meet with members of the Oread Neighborhood Association.
"The Hawk wants to show the neighborhood that it values its concerns." All said.
All said that his client did not own The Hawk when the bar's liquor license was revoked and it was closed down or when it reopened with a cereal malt beverage license.
He said that Heleniak had taken several steps to control The Hawk's patrons, including hiring more bouncers and installing a system that scans identifications to verify patrons' ages.

By Steph Brewer
Kansan staff writer
When sports fans attend Kansas City Chiefs' or Washington Redskins' games, they may think that dressing up in war paint and head dresses and velling war whoops are part of sports tradition.
Yesterday afternoon, a University of Kansas professor explained that these mascots, costumes and cheers are not in any way a part of indigenous people's traditions and are, in fact, racist.
Cornel Pewewardy, assistant professor of education, addressed a group of 11 at the Pelathé Community Resource Center as part of a series of workshops designed to educate Kansans about mascots and racism in American sports culture. The workshops are sponsored by the Kansas Association for Native American Education Mascots Task Force Committee.
"We have various images that a lot of American society has of indigenous peoples," Peewardy said.
Pewwardy said Hollywood-made images of indigenous peoples still were being perpetuated in
American society by the use of mascots such as the Chiefs or the Cleveland Indians. He said sports fans who dressed up in what they saw as Native American costumes didn't understand that they were being offensive.
"People are so accustomed to making fun of Indians, it becomes normal," he said. "Reality is not the 'woo, woo, woo' stuff. That's manufactured reality." That's romanticism. That's a stereotype."
Peweward said that while some school districts had banned mascots depicting native peoples, many still existed. He also said that some sportscasters and writers added to the problem by saying things as 'scalped' or 'on the warpath' when describing the plays of sports teams.
He said by keeping these mascots indigenous, children were being teased about their culture and experiencing low self-esteem.
"The children don't want to go to school anymore because they've been shamed," he said.
He said that it was important to begin by educating children because they were more open to multicultural views.
Mark Randolph, a 1993 KU graduate and intern at
Cornel Peeweardy, assistant professor of education, said some sports team mascots were racist and offensive to indigenous peoples.
Offensive Mascots
Some examples are:
■ Kansas City Chiefs
■ Atlanta Braves
■ Washington Redskins
■ Cleveland Indians
"Even if it's a question of human respect, they're still not willing to change," he said.
the center, said that many college students were too set in their ways to change their views on offensive mascots.
"In essence, they're telling us what's important about our culture and how we should feel," she said.
Melissa Miera, Sioux City, Iowa, graduate student, said that workshops such as yesterday's should be mandatory at the University. She said that many students didn't want to be bothered with the issue of racist mascots.
GTA bill based on inaccuracies, chancellor says
By Julie M. Sachs Kansan staff writer
In response to a bill passed in Student Senate, Chancellor Robert Hemenway said that he did not think a written statement in support of the Graduate Teaching Assistant Coalition was necessary.
In the bill, the Chancellor was asked to formally state in writing that he would not support any future state legislative action aimed at eliminating the employee status of the graduate teaching assistants or denying their collective bargaining rights.
Hemenway said that while he supported GTAs, his decision to go against the advice of Senate was because the bill was based on inaccurate information.
Hemenway said the section of the bill accusing the University of Kansas of previously supporting state legislation that threatened the status of GTAs as public employees was inaccurate.
"It makes me inclined not to follow advice that is premised upon incorrect information," Hemenway said.
He said the University never supported any state legislation that
threatened the status of GTAs as state employees.
"If I had to characterize this, there is just a wrong assumption," Homenway said.
Although Hemenway said he thought that a written statement was unnecessary, he said that the University valued its GTAs.
"We very much respect the role of the GTA's in the University." Hemenway said. "What the University is going to do is support the GTAs and negotiate in good faith with the GTA union."
Mark Horowitz, president of the Graduate Teaching Assistants
Coalition, said the group was disappointed with Hemenway's decision.
"I'm shocked and disappointed by the Chancellor's reaction," said Mark Horowitz, president of the Graduate Teaching Assistants Coalition. "Two weeks ago in Senate, he was very amiable. He stated directly that he never supported a bill eliminating GTA public employee rights."
Horowitz, the graduate senator who wrote the bill, said that he did not understand why Hemenway could not put what he told Senate in writing.

Anti-abortion activists have right to exercise free speech, expression
This week, the University of Kansas has found itself in the eye of a particularly nasty storm. The KU Christian Legal Society and Jayhawker Campus Ministry invited an anti-abortion group to set up an exhibit that graphically displays the results of abortions. The display, called the Genocide Awareness Project, also shows shocking photos of the victims of Nazi death camps and African Americans who were lynched in this country by racist mobs.
The University community should embrace the issue of free speech at any cost, but the organizations capitalizing on the issue of free speech also should exhibit their beliefs in a more tasteful manner — such as not placing the exhibit by a dining hall.
Activists should have employed other methods to provoke discussion.
Like other abortion protests around the nation, this one has already been marred by violence. On Sunday night, one student was arrested for driving his vehicle into one of the signs, a group of students overturned one of the signs and another student punched one of the anti-abortion protesters.
Although this sort of conduct is illegal and counterproductive, it is not surprising. The first place that students saw the exhibit was on Daisy Hill, near the dining hall. At least one student became physically ill after exiting the
dining hall and seeing the display.
The University should be commended for allowing the displays on campus. Chancellor Hemenway has made it clear that he will go beyond paying lip service to freedom of expression and inquiry at KU. The First Amendment is alive and well here.
However, there were certainly better places to start this exhibit. The stated purpose of the Center for Bio-Ethical Reform, which produced the displays, is to get people talking and thinking about abortion. It's hard for people to talk when they're sick to their stomachs. It's also difficult for them to think objectively about a message when they're enraged at the messenger. In this case, the way to a person's heart is not through their stomach.

Feedback
Protesters don't get at heart of abortion issue
The recent debate and violence on campus surrounding the anti-abortion display has sparked in me an anger that is unrelenting. This issue is no where near a resolution.
The reason this issue will not be resolved is because people like you (I know not who you are, I just passed you on my way in and out of the library) stand around, hold up your signs and pictures and try and make people feel bad about themselves. We live in a world that forces young couples to carry a baby to term and dispose of it either in a dumpster or a toilet. This is what the protests have created. Until we change our attitudes to begin fostering a world where women and men believe in themselves enough to love safely and talk about sex and contraception, there will still be a need for this tragedy. So what I
want to ask all of the protesters (pro & con) is what do we do?
Do we support relationships that are unhealthy and surrounded by unsafe sexual practices? Do we celebrate people's independent life decisions and not judge them?
I have personally seen both sides of this coin, and neither is pretty. Until we begin to work together for a world that supports a loving, caring awareness of different people and their lives, this issue will not be solved. So before we waste our afternoon holding up a sign, let's sit down and ask what do I do?
All opinions deserve right to free expression
Erika Jacobson Glendale. Ariz.. graduate student
Most students on this campus claim to believe that every person is entitled to his or her own opinion and the nonviolent expression of that opinion. In light of this, I am amazed at the number of students on this campus who adamantly oppose the Pro-Life display simply because they disagree with the message it promotes. I think that it is very hypocritical to pay lip service to freedom to particular points of view.
To those who argue that the Pro-life demonstration is obnoxious and disruptive, I would reply that the vocal chanting by those who are Pro-choice is no less obnoxious. If a gay-rights group, or an anti-racism group, or an anti-war group had used a similar display to promote their view, I would bet that the response would not have been to tell that group to stop being so pushy. If we truly believe in freedom of expression, then we should be mature enough to support that freedom even when it goes against our personal beliefs.

Perspective
Self control undermines anti-abortionists' tactics
I would like to take this opportunity to immerse the mainstream campus community into the world of a minority student for just a moment to ensure that
our viewpoint is heard concerning the tactics used by the Center for Bio-Ethical Reform.

This past Sunday, I was driving my car onto Daisy Hill and witnessed a site that our own chancellor said "may be repugnant to many." However, what interested me was not so much the large anti-abortion displays, but rather the students who were lined up in protest in front of them.
Recognizing some of my fellow African-American students, I pulled up to see what all the trouble was about and found large pictures of my brothers being lynched by southern racists. Now, some may think, "so what?" or "what's the problem with that?" and I would say to those people, let a picture of your dead brother be used as the means for advertising some arbitrary message and then we can discuss how that would make you feel.
The entire point that these were anti-abortion signs was missed completely by many of the African American students who had assembled outside of Mrs. E's, and by me as well. Instead of provoking discussion on abortion, the images of lynchings and Holocaust victims provoked a reaction of outrage and protest against the means used by the center to justify its points. It was only a matter of time before tension overtook the angry and confused tension that had just witnessed someone drive their car through a display.
Soon we became restless and decided to get some answers out of the organization. As we approached a representative, some of us had already begun to besiege one of the display signs. I watched in awe as the representative ran over and pushed one young brother, only to receive instant retaliation to his initiation of physical contact.
The meeting provided an atmosphere that was conducive to understanding between the center and the minority campus community. It was the first time that we were able to voice our opinions to the center and get some results.
The Kansas University Police Department was already on the scene and, fortunately, the violence was short-lived. The conflict between the African-American protesters
and the Center for Bio-Ethical Reform was more than obvious at this point.
The meeting that took place between the Black Student Union and the Center for Bio-Ethical Reform was well attended by many African Americans, as well as nonAfrican-American students. Representatives from Hilille, HALO, First Nation, Pro Choice, and the Students Against Racism attended and added necessary view points to the dialogue that was at times heated and touchy.
This is when the Executive Director for the Center, Gregg Cunningham, approached the crowd and asked to speak with any representative from the Black Student Union. I stepped forward and spoke to Cunningham, who assured me that his organization was not trying to offend the black community. In an effort to bring light to the situation, we set up a meeting that took place this Tuesday.
I think that we, as a Black community, can become so wrapped up in the heat of the moment when it comes to race issues, that we sometimes forget where the focus is supposed to be. This can lead us into exactly where we do not want to be, and we have to be careful to handle important issues like this as professional African-American students at an institute of higher learning. I could choose to be violent, but then, you see, that is exactly the kind of response they want me to make, and I am not about to play into that game.
The way I see it, there is a choice to be made, but it has nothing to do with the 25-year-old Supreme Court case concerning abortion. This choice is one that we must all make, whether you're Black, white, Jewish, pro-choice, anti-abortion, it doesn't matter. The protests were here and the damage has been done, but we all have the choice of whether we are going to let this organization affect and manipulate our emotions, our actions and our lives with its

Abortion does compare to Holocaust, slavery
What is it about this pecu of images that causes such vitriol and anger?
The recent furor about a campus abortion protest has caused me to reflect. The Holocaust, slavery, abortion. What is it about this peculiar juxtaposition of images that causes
Many people have stated their objections in the context of insensitivity, racism, or trivialization of tragic historical events. These objections go less to the actual pictorial depiction of historical events and more to the comparison being made to them. After all, pictorial depictions of both the atrocities inflicted on European Jewry in the 20th century and those inflicted on American Blacks are often praised.
T. R. NALKARIA

Stegall
Guest columns
The Holocaust Museum in Washington contains far more graphic pictures than the current abortion protest, as did the recent Steven Spielberg movie Amistad. Yet these cultural statements are praised as remembrances of the evil powerful human beings can unleash against powerless human beings. Why? Because they are in sync with the political orthodoxy of our day.
Very few things are more anathema in today's culture than the de-humanizing of a group of persons based on their racial heritage. And rightly so.
The ironic thing, however, seems to be that the one cultural statement which is potentially as anathema as de-humanization based on race is humanization based on age. At the end of the day, isn't this the message being delivered on our campus this week? That the youngest and most helpless of our species is entitled to the same fundamental rights that Black people and Jewish people are entitled to? Rights that at one time were denied to those groups and that at this time are being denied to another group?
Those raising objections to this message reveal their ideology. Unborn children should not be humanized because they are not human beings. Therefore, comparisons to "real" de-humanization is objectionable. The logic of this position would be impeccable if the underlying premise was defensible. The thing is, it isn't.
Let us start with the obvious. "A horse is a
horse, of course, of course." So goes the
TV-show ditty. A human is a human, right? Wrong. There have been many definitions of what it means to be human throughout the ages. The scope of true humanity has been limited at various times by everything from sex to property ownership, from language capacity to mental ability, from skin color to skull width. These days it is limited variously by age, consciousness, and viability. One might wonder if all of the various definitions have only been so much justification given by those in power to rationalize their penchant for trampling on the rights of the powerless. But let us give those advancing technical definitions the benefit of the doubt and enter the fracas on their terms. What makes an organism a human?
The most empirically reliable means for differentiating one species from another is genetic. One need not be a geneticist to understand the test. Muskratis beget muskrats. Humans beget other humans. But, the argument goes, a human liver bears the genetic stamp of human and no one accords a liver constitutional rights. This is because a human liver. Although it is human tissue, is not alive. For human tissue to be classified as a person and accorded rights, it must bear the characteristic of life.
So when does a fertilized human egg, clearly human tissue, take on the characteristic of life and become due certain rights? The consensus in the medical community is that life begins at conception. But again, let us assume we need a more technical definition. The accepted medical means for determining when a patient has died is a test designed to measure brain waves. If brain waves are present, the tissue is alive.
According to the New England Journal of Medicine, this same brain-wave activity that renders you or I alive is present in a six-week old fetus. Therefore, even under the most technical of definitions, a fetus is due fundamental human rights six weeks from conception.
If one can accept this reality, then the comparison of abortion to the Holocaust or slavery begins to make sense. People are people and they all deserve fundamental rights. This latest exclusion from the human family by linguistic tricks is no less tragic than the historical exclusions we all recognize.

Senate backs theater resolution
By Seth Jones
Kansan staff writer
Student Senate has decided to support the students at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and to ask Hollywood Theaters for a break.
A resolution presented by Maria Abatjoglou, College of Liberal Arts and Sciences senator; Mark Horowitz, graduate senator; and Alan Stearns, graduate senator, requested that Hollywood Theaters continue to offer its dollar movies or to offer a discount to students.
The resolution passed by a voice vote with one amendment asking that Hillcrest 5 Theatres, which offers dollar movies, not be called the only discount theater in Lawrence. The reason for the amendment was because Student Union Activities also offers discount movies to students. Abatioglu said.
Hollywood Theaters decided not to renew its lease on Hillcrest, 925 Iowa St. The lease will expire Sunday.
The three senators who proposed the resolution sent a letter to Hollywood Theaters' headquarters to ask the company to help students by providing some form of discount movies. The letter was sent Sept. 14, and Hollywood has not yet responded, Abatioqliou said.
LEGISLATION
PASSED, a bill to fund the KU Psychology Club. The bill called for the allocation of $282.
PASSED, a resolution requesting that Hollywood Theaters continue to offer a discount movie theater in Lawrence or offer discounts for students.
PASSED, a resolution to support the position of the Associated Students of the University of Wisconsin-Madison in Southworth vs. Grebe.
TABLED, a bill to amend Student Senate rules and regulations. The resolution says any legislation heard by the finance committee must comply with the Senate budget guidelines.
She said that if Hollywood did not make an effort to comply with the resolution, further action might be required.
Abatioglou said.
Senate also passed a resolution to support the position of the Associated Students of the University of Wisconsin-Madison in the Southworth vs. Grebe case. The resolution was tabled in the last Senate meeting because senators said the resolution's sponsor, Partha Mazumdar, needed to provide more information.
The ruling stated that Madison's student government no longer could allocate student fees to various organizations that students had voiced complaints against.
Mazudar, graduate senator,
came to last night's meeting with a
booklet outlining the case, and
Senate passed the resolution.
Senate's resolution offers support to the Associated Students of Madison and to help in fighting the ruling and its implications.
Greg Skoch, law senator, did not support the resolution.
"This is about the students themselves, not the groups," he said. "As an individual, I don't have to pay my student fees to fund these groups that I don't agree with, that violates my conscience."
Bulletin-board postings restricted
Officials plan fines to make policy stick
By Melody Ard
Kansan staff writer
Administrators hope that this semester's revised bulletin-board policy will end the days of tape-covered lampposts and bus stops.
In an effort to help reduce campus litter, Jeanette Johnson, assistant to the provost, helped draft a bulletinboard policy that limits postings to specific areas on campus.
The policy puts campus bulletin boards into two categories: departmental and public. Departmental bulletin boards are those marked for use by a specific class, department or group. Unmarked bulletin boards are considered public.
"I don't think anyone sets out and says 'let me make the campus look tacky,' but that's what happens," Johnson said.
"Bulletin boards in classrooms are for instructional use only, as defined by the instructors," Johnson said. "Also, glass cases were for the nearest department or for the fine arts department. Generally, it is open if the bulletin board isn't clearly marked."
Shonel Kizer, Houston sophomore, said that she understood the policy and that it would not limit access to important information, which often was available elsewhere.
"A lot of times, I know what's going on because I walk by Wescoe Beach or something," she said. "I'm not necessarily going to go and check out a bulletin board."
Johnson said that faculty, staff and members of Student Senate had
expressed concern about the appearance of commercial materials on classroom bulletin boards. A shortage of custodial staff and the cost of cleaning and repairing the bulletin boards also were factors in the decision.
Although the janitorial staff is responsible for building maintenance, Johnson said that custodians could not be held responsible for removing postings because faculty and custodians might not agree about what inappropriately was posted.
As a result, enforcement of the policy is left up to classroom instructors. Punishments for violations can range from a warning to a fine to cover cleanup costs, whether the materials are found inappropriately posted in classrooms or on objects such as stop signs.
Johnson said that University officials had not yet levied any fines but would begin more rigid enforcement of the policy after Oct. 1.

Promoting bicycle safety
Matt Dunbar, KU Environs president, speaks to a group of cyclists near the Community Mercantile parking lot. Yesterday, Dunbar spoke in memory of John Hermes, who was killed when he was struck by a utility truck Sept. 16, 1997 at Ninth and Mississippi streets. Dunbar and the cyclists — who turned out in greater numbers than last year — rode to City Hall after the meeting. One year ago, about 100 cyclists met at the scene of the accident and rode to City Hall, where the group lobbied for a bicycle transportation network in Lawrence. In his speech, Dunbar said that safety conditions had remained relatively unchanged from last year. He said that the city had made some progress toward improving bicycle safety in Lawrence but that he would ask for more action to be taken. Photo by Kate Levenson/KANSAN

Freshman soccer player brings Canadian training
Kanson sportswriter
Many freshmen athletes at the NCAA Division-I level aren't expected to start or even play a lot.
That's not the case with freshman Natalie Hoogveld.
In the first seven games of the soccer season, midfielder/forward Hoogveld has played in all games and started six games.
"I came here and wanted to start," she said. "During the preseason, I realized I would have to work hard in order to start. Now, I just hope that my name is on the list before every game."
Hoeweld, of Calgary, Canada, has had plenty of experience playing against top competitors. When she was 16, she began playing in a top amateur women's league in Alberta, Canada. That experience has given her an edge in going up against seasoned veterans at the Division I-level.
"I used to play against older, more experienced players," she said.
Kansas coach Dan Magner said that Hoogveld had done very well both on and off the field.
"It's certainly been difficult for her with so many adjustments," he said. "With soccer, moving into a dorm, eating cafeteria food, these are big changes. We feel she has adjusted well."
Hoogveld said that she came here hoping to be an impact player. Although she struggled early in the season to find the back of the net, Hoogveld scored her first collegiate goal early in the second half in 4-1 win Sept. 13 against Central Missouri State.
"I can hopefully start scoring," she said.
"The goal against Central Missouri was a
Canada vs. United States
start "
Even though Canada and the United States are neighbors, Hooyveld said that there were several differences between the two countries.
"We hear more about the U.S. in Canada than the U.S. hears about Canada," she said.
Hoogweld said that the school system in Canada was slightly different. Canadians don't have the freshman, sophomore, junior or senior rankings in high school or college. High school years are grades 10-12, and college students are labeled as a first-year or second-year students.
Many Kansas students think Lawrence has some brutal winters, but according to Hoogveld, winters in Calgary are much worse. She said that temperatures in Calgary could get as low as -22 degrees.
Hoygeld said that a hot day in Calgary was 86 degrees.
The cold temperature is not the only difference between the two environments.
When she arrived in Lawrence for preseason training, the change in temperature was hard for her to adjust to.
"It was totally hot and humid," she said.
"I found it hard to breathe, and I felt nauseous. I don't mind the weather now, though."
Another difference between Canada and the United States is the attention NCAA sports receive.
“It's good that they have trainers and the media for us,” she said. “They really support athletics at KU. You don't get that in Canada. We'd be lucky to have a trainer at home games, let alone road games. They only offer small scholarships in Calgary."
While the differences are many, she said
that the cultures are similar. Calgary has the Flames of the NHL and the Stampeders of the Canadian Football League. The Rocky Mountains are only an hour from Calgary, and there's also the Calgary Stampede, a world-famous rodeo.
"There's not much difference in life-
styles, just adjusting to people," she said.
Leaving home
Hoogveld was not recruited heavily by any college except for the University of Kansas. Had she not come here, she said that she would have played soccer at the University of Calgary.
Former Kansas assistant coach Lisa Unsworth saw Hoogveld play in the 1997 Canadian Club Nationals while Hoogveld was a member of the Calgary Celtic.
Magner said that they might have caught a diamond in the rough by getting Hoovveld.
"A lot of credit has to go to Lisa, seeing her play and contacting her," he said. "Recruiting battles are intense, and anytime you can get an inside track to someone not in the limelight, it's very helpful."
Hoogveld made a trip to Lawrence in February and decided that this was the place for her.
"It's such a nice campus to look at," she said. "I thought it would be neat to come to a new place, away from the normal stuff in Calgary. Kansas was something new and interesting."
Hoogveld left her parents, Moira and Ray, an older sister, Heather, and her younger, twin sisters, Stephanie and Michelle.
There was just one thing Hoogveld's family and friends requested for her to do
Walk-ons take alternative path on the road to college football
See SOCCER on page 3B
By Sam Mellinger
Kansan sportswriter
Kansas walk-on linebacker Brandt Pyles never played football in high school.
On the Field
When he arrived at the University of Kansas about four years ago, he did not even think about playing.
In fact, it was not until he studied abroad in Scotland two years ago that the senior made his first tackle in an organized game.
Pyles compared the Scottish competition he encountered to the high school level in the United States, which was just fine with him.
"I wanted to try it because I never played in high school," the Honolulu native said. "That was one of my big regrets."
Pyles enjoyed playing linebacker and running back overseas so much that when he returned to Kansas last year, he contacted the Kansas coaches about the possibility of walking on.
They were more than happy to have him practice, but similar to a lot of walk-ons, Pyles' chances of playing his first year were slim because he joined the team as the semester began.
"At that point, we were a week from our first football game," coach Terry Allen said. "Things are pretty much in place, so they're not going to play their first year."
"It's a privilege just to practice," he said. "I love every chance I get to play. I think when you first walk on, everybody thinks you're just trying real hard to catch the coach's eye. But when they see you in the summer doing the work, they respect that and feed off of that and they go harder. It makes football fun, rather than a job."
Pyles practiced all last season without
playing a down in a game. His love for playing is obvious in more than his willingness to go through two-a-days without much hope of playing.
Lawrence junior and walk-on nose guard Willie McKinnis remembers arriving in the locker room before his first practice with the team.
That's not to say that walk-ons are never the butt of a joke.
Kansas volleyball team defeats Oklahoma
For walk-ons with hopes of earning a scholarship and playing time, there are several sources for inspiration on the current Jayhawks team. Michael Chandler, Dustin Curry, Chris Neeking, Tanner Hancock, Michael Lies, Sean McDermott and Jerome Parks are all former walk-ons now on scholarship.
There are other obstacles for walk-ons. Sometimes they aren't able to live in Jayhawker Towers with the scholarship players, and they also have to pay for training-table meals. But still, Glasgow insists it's not as far as it seems from walking on to earning a scholarship.
Offensive guard Justin Glasgow, Topeka senior, is perhaps the team's most successful walk-on. Since earning a scholarship his freshman year, Glasgow was named honorable mention all Big 12 last year and is a team captain this year.
"They ask me about it, and I say if I can do it, you can do it," he said. "It's not how big you are, it's how big you play."
"No one knows who you are or what you are," Glasgow said. "You don't have many friends. You're alone on this team, basically."
met," he said. "It was just a kind of prank welcoming, just a little welcome-to-the team thing."
For the first time in three years, the Kansas volleyball team defeated its first Big 12 Conference opponent of the season.

He said the hardest time for a walk-on is the beginning.
This season, about 35 walk-on players practiced with the team. Allen said.

Kansas had 12 blocks in the contest, led by middle blocker Amanda Reves, who contributed four block assists and one solo block.
The Jayhawks' defense held the Sooners to 44 kills.
Albrecht also led the Jayhawks in digs, posting a personal best of 19, taking credit for almost a third of Kansas' 54 digs in the match.

Commentary
Earlier this week, I was sitting on my friend's faded blue sofa, lazily watching the waning moments of the late-night SportsCenter.
You know, nothing really out of the ordinary.
It was just a few college guys hanging out, chatting, drinking and trying to prolong the evening as much as possible.
Harley Ratliff
As I sank further into the couch's cushions, I noticed the highlights from that night's Kansas City Royals game. For some reason, only God knows why, this caught my attention.
SAWANI
You know, nothing really out of the ordinary.
Ritchers pitching. Hitters hitting. Kauffman Stadium packed to capacity with empty seats. It was pretty much what you would expect from a Royals game.
Then it hit me.
Buried in the bottom left corner of the screen I noticed the name "Beltran".
Full name: Carlos Beltran.
Who's Carlos Beltran? He's the guy whose going to save Kansas City baseball. I at me explain.
I spent this summer working in Wichita for the local paper. My tasks included: do every menial task your editor assigns and have fun (which in Wichita is nearly impossible, unless you like to eat glue). One of these menial tasks was to cover the Wichita Wranglers — the double A farm team of the Rovals.
Now, most of the time the Wranglers mirrored their parent organization. No one came to the games, there wasn't much talent and, most importantly, they lost. And they lost big.
Standing at 6-foot-1 and weighing just under 200 pounds, Beltran has the type of pure ability to become one of baseball's greatest stars. Those are bold words, I know, but keep reading.
Beltran, of Puerto Rico, is one of the best young players in the game today. And if
Then Carlos strolled into town. And things started to change.
you know, nothing really out of the ordinary.
The kid can hit, too.
you don't believe me, go to some Royals games and get a glimpse for yourself.
Only 21-years-old, Beltran plays center field like he owns the place. No ball is out of his reach. No play can't be made. With his blinding speed and good response time, Beltran often renders his two outfield cohorts useless. Unless it was a ball down the foul line, everyone in the stands (all 12 of us) knew that it was Beltran's call. And folks, Beltran's fielding isn't even the half of it.
In his first week in double A, Beltran made it clear that he was the best hitter on the team by belting multiple home runs, hitting in the clutch and spanking every fastball an opposing pitcher tried to run by him. When Beltran came to the plate, Wrangler fans stopped stuffing their faces with Nuclear Nachos to observe the phenomenon. This kid has it all.
All Kansas City has to do is make sure he stavs.
For years, the Royals have been devoid of homegrown stars. With no one of any note coming through the system, the Royals have been forced to compete with a litany of mediocre has-beens; Gary Gaetti, Chili Davis, Jeff King, Jay Bell, etc.
The list could go on forever.
Now the Royals will have one of their own to rally around. People in Kansas City can get excited about somebody they have watched since day one. Beltran is a star in the making, the ultimate five-tool player. And he only is going to get better. Mark my words.
Next spring, when the Royals season starts back up, make a note to look for Beltran's name because during the next few years, he is going to change the way fans look at the Kansas City baseball.
And you know that is something out of the ordinary.
Ratliff is a Norman, Okla., senior in journalism.

The sun is in Libra, the sign of the poeticist; and Mercury, symbolizing the mind, is going there today as well. The moon's in Scorpio, a military sign, as is Aries, the warrior it means that you and an enemy actually could reach a workable compromise. Make that your objective
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 6.
Normally you'd rather be left alone to do what you know needs to be done. During the next few weeks, you'll get to help others decide what needs to be done and motivate them to do it. Decisions are easy for you but not for many others, as you'll notice today.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 6.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 6.
The sun is in Libra; and Mercury, the planet of the mind and your ruling planet, is going there today, too. In Libra, its effect is startlingly poetic. You're natu rally a writer. Words are your most obvious method of expressing your natural talent. Don't hold back.
Cancer (June 22- July 22); Today is a 7.
If you've had a difference of opinion with a roommate or loved one, don't worry. It'll clear up within the next few weeks, most likely. That will be a relief, even though it sounds kind of scary right now.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 5.
You're learning fast, so gather the information you need. Ask around. Write letters. Find out what will happen if you push this domino over here. What will be the effect down the road over time? Figure out the consequences of each possible action. If all that fails, follow a hunch.
Virao (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Today is a 7.
Virgin (Aug 25-27, 2014)
The sun is in Libra, while Mercury, your ruling planet, is going there today. It's sad to have Mercury going out of your sign because it gives you an intellectual advantage. On the other hand, Mercury in Libra brings out your artistic talent, and that could bring in more money
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 7.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is an 8.
You're able to think more clearly, and you're coming up with more options, which means you have to make more decisions. Well, just make your choices quickly and get on with it. If you really can't decide, take both.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 6
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 6.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Today is an O.
If there's a conflict between two parties, you'll be able to act as moderator. Today, you'll understand the other point of view. You can incorporate more of what the other people want, and that's a powerful place from which to negotiate.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 4.
If you've got any artistic tendencies at all, they're bound to come out in the next several weeks. You'll be more interested in reading, too. It's a great time to get into the classics. It's also a great time to take a painting class or anything else that will help you develop your talents.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 6.
For the next several weeks, authority types will talk more than usual. Now when they get to talking, they also tend to wander. One of your jobs is to bring things back to the subject at hand. You're good at that, and today that talent will be required more often than usual.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 7.
2
Conditions are encouraging you to be more creative. They also may tempt you to believe it's not necessary for you actually to produce anything. Sometimes talking about a project can be confused with accomplishing it. This leads to a great conversation but not much to show for it. Today, results are required.

"We are real happy to get in 54 holes," said Kansas coach Ross Randall. "We had to push yesterday, and we were lucky with the weather today. I am pleased with the team. It is always good to get a win at home, and it is a good way to start the season. Casey Harbour, a freshman, had a good tournament for his first tournament."

The individual tournament champion also was a Kansas player. Senior Chris Thompson shot a tournament low of 21.0 strokes, six under par.
That last round was a real roller-coaster ride, said Thompson. "I was worried after I bogeyed the last hole, but I ended up finishing with the lead. I am looking forward to a good year. We should be very competitive this season."

Spelling out the rules
Terminology to take to women's soccer
By Brad Hallier
Kansan sportswriter
Jayhawk football will be at Birmingham, Ala.; volleyball goes to Manhattan;; the Chiefs travel to Philadelphia and the Wizards are going to San Jose, Calif.
That's okay! Polish your cleats, and put on your old soccer jerseys! The Kansas women's soccer team is having its inaugural tournament this weekend. If your soccer vocabulary is a little rusty, here are some terms and other rules to take with you to the matches to understand the game better:
Game length: A 90-minute game, divided into two 45-minute halves.
Players: Each team has 11 players on the field, including the goalkeeper.
Penalty box: The bigger rectangle around the goals. It's 18 yards from the goal line to the top of the box.
Goal box: Also called the six-yard box. The smaller rectangle around the goals. No free kicks may take place inside this area.
Out-of-bounds: The entire ball must cross a sideline or goal line for it to be out of play.
Direct free kick: This kick may be shot directly into the goal without it touching anyone else.
Indirect free kick: This kick must be
touched by any two players before a goal can be scored.
Corner kick: Happens when a defender last touches the ball when it goes across their own goal line. It is a direct kick.
Goal kick: Happens when an offensive player last touches the ball when it goes across the goal line.
Throw in: How the game is restarted when the ball goes across the sideline. A player must have both feet on the ground, and the ball must be thrown from behind the head with two hands on the ball.
Offside: This is the most difficult rule to
understand and interpret. Basically, offensive players must have two defensive players between them and the endline to receive the ball. A player cannot be offside on his or her own half of the field, on
SOCIAL MEDIA
corner kicks or throw ins.
Yellow/Red cards: Also called bookings. The referee holds these up when a player fouls someone a little harder than normal or for dissent. Yellows are warnings, and reds are ejections. Two yellows equal a red. A team must play with one less player on the field when a player is issued a red card.
Substitution rules: The NCAA allows each player to enter the field once in the first half and twice in the second half and overtime.
Overtime: In the NCAA, two 15 minute periods, not sudden death.

"Everyone told me to say 'hi' to Toto," she said with a smile.
while in Kansas
Hoogveld knows handball, field hockey...
Hoogveld grew up playing a variety of sports, including volleyball, soccer, basketball, track, cross country, field hockey and handball.
While she excelled at soccer, she was also team MVP in handball at Bishop Grandin High School and was a city champion in cross country. Her handball team also took city and provincial titles.
So why did she choose soccer?
"I started playing soccer when I was 10," she said. "I liked it much more than other sports. I enjoyed myself because I was good at it, better than average anyway."
While Bishop Grandin didn't offer soccer as a high school sport, Hoogveld played soccer yearround with her club team.
Magner said that he likes her athleticism and said that she finished No. 1 in preseason tests for speed. He hopes that her goal against Central Missouri was a sign of things to come.
"That goal showed all her potential to take people on and finish very strong," he said. "It's not a fluke in the three games we have won. She has played very well."

Running back position carries several duties
By Brandon Krisztal
Kanson sportswriter
Traditionally, the Big 12 has produced some of the best running backs in the country, and this year is no different. Texas Tech sophomore Ricky Williams, Missouri senior Devin West, Iowa State junior Daren Davis and Texas senior Ricky Williams are among the nation's top rushers.
Kansas also has been blessed with a pair of talented running backs: junior Mitch Bowles and sophomore David Winbush.
The key to any good offense is a solid running game. Many factors make up a good ground attack, but the essential element is a quality running back.
Both backs are small and extremely fast. Bowles is 5-foot-8 and 185 pounds and Winbush is 5-7 and 175 pounds
Winbush's size does not deter him
from doing his job.
"You have to be real confident in yourself. Speaking for smaller backs, you can't go out there and pay attention to all the talking, you're smaller than everybody."
"You have to be real confident in yourself," he said. "Speaking for smaller backs, you can't go out there and pay attention to all the talking, you're smaller than everybody. In a way, it's a plus for me, hiding behind the blockers and making them miss."
When Winbush arrived at college, he learned that his position demanded more than just carrying
David Winbush Kansas running back
the ball. It included reading linebackers, recognizing defensive fronts, memorizing pass routes and knowing how to take care of the football.
Kansas coach Terry Allen said that the first thing recruiters looked for in a running back was speed but that it was not the only thing.
"Across the board, they have to have good field awareness," Allen said. "They must have good hands and the ability to block a 250-pound linebacker. They have to have a compliment of physical talent that crosses the gamut."
Texas' Ricky Williams is one of the most highly touted running back this season and is considered by some to be the most impressive collegiate running back since Barry Sanders.
Williams credits hard work and dedication for his success.
The 6-foot, 235-pound Williams is not only one of the strongest players on his team, bench pressing more than 400 pounds, but he is also one of the team's fastest players, with a 40-yard dash time of 4.3 seconds.
"You obviously have to be extremely dedicated to football to be successful on the college level." Williams said. "It's important to work hard in the weight room and on the field to prepare yourself for peak
performances, but one of the things that can be overlooked is how hard you must prepare in studying the game plan and your opponents. Everyone is so talented at this level that it is extremely important to prepare in all facets of the game."
Being a running back involves more than being strong and fast.
"Several things go through your mind when you are running the ball," Williams said. "You have to know the play, read your line, read the defense and then make a split-second decision. People watch the game and think it looks rather simple. Either the guy is tackled quickly or he breaks through the hole, but there are tons of things going on in that short period of time. It isn't only the running back. It is an entire team effort."

Protesters challenge display
Student organizations lead march against anti-abortion group
By Pallavi Agarwal Kansan staff writer
About 75 to 80 KU students peacefully marched down Jayhawk Boulevard yesterday to protest the anti-abortion displays organized by the Center for Bio-Ethical Reform.
The protest was organized by the KU Pro-Choice Coalition, the Black Student Union and the Hillel Foundation. It started at 12:30 p.m. at the Chi Omega fountain and finished outside Watson library 15 minutes later.
The students marched and collectively chanted, "CBR go away."
After reaching the anti-abortion display in the lawn in front of Stauffer-Flint Hall, the marchers clapped their hands and screamed "Shame on you" and "Don't manipulate. Educate."
Sally Puleo, KU Pro-Choice Coalition vice president, equated the anti-abortion display to misogyny.
Dion Jones, Black Student Union president, said the protest brought the three groups together.
"Women who have had abortions are not Hitler," she said. "These displays show fear. A white man's fear. A fear that women would gain ultimate control over their body."
Elizabeth Caldwell, Lawrence junior, said she cut class to participate in the protest.
"For the first time, the Black Student Union is working with other organizations like Hiliel," he said. "I hope this is a message to other organizations who bring us their garbage that we will not tolerate it."
"I want to display my right as a woman," she said.
While pictures of aborted fetuses remained at the display, posters of racial lynchings and the holocaust were removed Wednesday by the organizers. Posters carrying the organization's Web site address were added in their place.
"That had some impact on the toning down of the display," he said.
Sgt. Troy Maileen of the KU Public Safety office said that a meeting had taken place Tuesday where the student organizations and some faculty and staff members had expressed concerns to the Bio-Ethical Center.
Gregg Cunningham, director for the Center, said that the Tuesday meeting had no bearing on the contents of the poster display and that they were rotating the photographs.
Cunningham said that he was not bothered by the protest and that debate on campus was healthy.
Extra security measures were taken by the KU Public Safety Office for yesterday's protest. Mallen said that six additional officers were deployed to the existing fleet of 11 officers.
Pulao said the police advised the groups to confine themselves to the sidewalk, keep entrances to buildings free and not to block the entrance to the anti-abortion display organized by the Center for Bio-Ethical Reform.

Enrollment shows little change
Numbers effect Regents funding indicate trends
By Molody Ard Kanson staff writer
The release of the 20th day numbers showed little fluctuation in enrollment at the University of Kansas, with a total increase of only 58 students since last fall.
Total enrollment at the three University campuses this semester was 27,625.
The 20th day enrollment numbers, which were released yesterday by the Kansas Board of Regents, served as a comparison between the populations of the six universities in the Regents system.
The 20th day of classes at the University was last Thursday, but the Board of Regents waited until yesterday to release the data from all of the Regents' schools together.
The enrollment at the Edwards Campus, formerly known as the Regents Center, was calculated with the Lawrence campus enrollment. The total for those two campuses was 25,155 students. No individual total was available for the Edwards Campus. The total enrollment at the University of Kansas Medical Center was 2,470.
The numbers themselves aren't as important to the University as the trends that they represent, said Kathleen McCluskey-Fawcett, associate provost.
"The numbers tell us whether we meet enrollment targets and other goals such as ACT scores and minority enrollment," she said.
Total minority enrollment increased 0.2 percent from last fall, with 2,345 students or 9.3 percent of the student body.
The enrollment numbers translate into cash for the University. These numbers are considered by the Board of Regents when money is allotted to each school.
"The numbers are important because it is money," Tom Hutton, director of university relations, said. "It is a funding source and indicative of the quality of students at the University."
Hutton said Regents funding was important because state money supplements the part of the budget that student tuitions don't cover.
"Students often times think their tuition pays the cost of their education, but it doesn't," he said. "It actually only pays about 25 percent."
McCluskey-Fawcett said the actual number of students became less important for the University because of the switch to linear tuition, but student enrollment still played a part in the allotment from the Regents.
"Head count data used to be more important than it is now because the budget is determined by credit hour," she said. "But it gives us a sense of how we compare to other universities."
The University of Kansas had the most students of any Regents university. The second-largest university was Kansas State University which, with its main campus, veterinary school and Salina campus, had a total of 20,885 students.
Kansas State University also had the largest increase in students from last fall with a jump of 579.
Although that looked good on paper, McCluskey-Fawcett said that it was preferable for universities to have only small fluctuations in numbers. She said large changes could cause shortages or surpluses of dorm rooms and space in classes.
"The trouble with big increases or drops is it throws off the budget cycle," she said. "Budgets are done the spring before and are based on stable enrollment. Minimal growth can be handled, but large changes cause problems."
Fort Hays State University was the only Regents school to have a decrease in students. The university population decreased by 215 students.
According to University of Kansas Profiles from the Office of Institutional Research and Planning, University enrollment has been increasing since the Fall 1996, with a jump of 160 students last year.

Ballet students taught lesson by Miami dancer
Yesterday students taking Introduction to Ballet received a special lesson from Jimmy Gamonet, choreographer of the Miami City Ballet.
He taught a two-hour class to 26 ballet students. Many of the students were enrolled in the class, and others were interested dance students.
"He made us work really hard, but I really like it," said Kool-Lan Tan, Pehang, Malaysia. senior. "He taught some new combinations that I had never seen before."
The master class conducted by Gamonet was part of the Lied Center's engagement with the Miami City Ballet.
"I think it is really good that the Lied Center and the dance department have these kind of deals," Tan said. "It gives us a new exposure to dance and teaches us a different style."
The company performed at the Lied Center last night as part of the "Countdown to the Millennium," a new series created by the center to promote different cultures that influence the performing arts.
Track meet tomorrow raises money for cancer
Mariana Paiva
About 20 fraternities and sororites, as well as individual competitors, will vie for the championship in the event sponsored by Chi Omega sorority and Alpha KappaLambda.
The 17th annual Wheat Meet, a track meet that benefits cancer research in Lawrence, will be held from 8:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. tomorrow at Memorial Stadium.
Chris Toy, Valley Falls junior and coordinator, said they were expecting about 250 people to compete.
Because of stadium renovations, the long jump, triple jump and high jump events will not take place, said Lindsey Lang, Albaquereque, N.M., junior and coordinator.
Last year, the track meet and associated fund raisers made more than $10,000. Tay said that most of the money came from T-shirt sales.
Registration and T-shirt sales will take place in front of Wescoe Hall from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. today.
Additional money will be raised from an all-you-can-eat pasta party from 5 to 8 p.m. tonight at the Alpha Kappa Lambda fraternity house. Admission is $5, and the event is open to the public.
"It's a fun way to get the greek community and the rest of the campus involved," Lang said. "Plus, it's all for a great cause."

Women's club sponsors Puff Pant Prom tradition
Community jitterbugs can swing to the music of Junk Yard Jazz Saturday night at the Puff Pant Prom.
The prom will take place from 8 p.m. to midnight at Lawrence Riverfront Plaza. Tickets are $15 per person and $8 for senior citizens. The event is being sponsored by the Friends of KU Womens Studies.
The University of Kansas Women's Athletic Association held the first prom in 1924. Attendees were all women, who came as either a Puff in a dress or a Pant in a suit. The event was revived by the organization two years ago, with one change — men are welcome.
"The FOWS center was looking for a way of raising funds and this seemed like an interesting idea," said Jane Sellen, a member of the FOWS board.

NEW YORK — The former personal secretary of Muslim extremist Osama bin Laden was ordered held without bail on a charge of perjury, accused of lying about his ties to bin Laden's terrorist group.
Bin Laden is the Saudi exile wanted by U.S. authorities for allegedly coordinating attacks on American embassies in Kenya and Tanzania. Aug. 7 that killed 259 people, including 12 Americans, and wounded thousands.
an attorney for Wadih El Hage, 38,
argued Wednesday that his client was
not charged in the bombing and would
not flee the country.
But Assistant U.S. Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald said El Hage's ties to bin Laden and World Trade Center bomber Mahmoud Abuathalma were reason enough to keep him held without bail, and U.S. Magistrate Judge Leonard Bernikow agreed.
The grand jury that indicted El Hage has been investigating whether he tried to procure chemical weapons for bin Laden. El Hage, who was arrested last week, is charged with eight counts of perjury and three counts of making false statements.

Newspaper racks nearly stolen; suspects arrested
By Kelli Raybern
Kansan staff writer
Three KU students who stole Lawrence Journal-World newspaper racks early yesterday morning have said they were sorry but still will face a day in court.
The men also wrote a letter to the managing editor of the Journal-World, Ralph Gage. The Lawrence newspaper, however, does not want to forgive and forget the incident.
According to a police report in the KU Public Safety Office, the men were seen stealing the racks and a KU police officer had them return the stolen items.
"Ralph received a letter from the three individuals apologizing." Chris Boarman, director of the paper's circulation department, said. "But I think we'll still pursue the prosecution."
At 12:10 a.m., three women said they witnessed the students loading two Journal-World racks from in front of Gertrude Sellards Pearson-Corbin Hall into a Jeep Cherokee.
The women flagged down a police officer in the lot west of GSP-Corbin and gave the officer a license plate number from the vehicle.
The officer processed the license plate number and contacted the vehicle's owner. He determined that the owner and two friends had stolen the racks. The officer then issued the men notices to appear in court Oct. 14.
Boarman said he still was trying to determine if the racks had been damaged.
If so, he said it would cost the newspaper between $300 and $550 each to replace them.
ON CAMPUS

Fine Arts enrollment increase high
20th day NUMBERS
By Jason Pearce
Kansan staff writer
Although the total University of Kansas enrollment remained steady, enrollment in the School of Fine Arts has increased 12 percent since last fall.
The increase was the largest of The Lawrence campus' nine professional schools and the college of liberal arts and sciences.
The fine arts enrollment increased from 1,430 students in Fall 1997 to 1,602 this fall. Since 1993, it has increased enrollment by 315 students, an overall rise of 24.5 percent.
Peter Thompson, dean of fine arts, said that the increase was extremely unusual for the school.
"Our enrollment usually goes up or down steadily each year, Thompson said. "I don't know which parts of the school have seen the larger increases."
He said that visual communication majors — including graphics
design — had been popular during the last several years and that the school added a few class sections to handle the additional students in that area.
"I think the increase is a combination of strong retention numbers and new admissions," Thompson said. "Fine arts classes are usually small, and it takes a lot to increase enrollment by that much."
He said that the increase would effect the school for the next four to five years.
"This can be very stressful, but we see it as good news for us and the University." Thompson said.
Enrollment in the School of Architecture and Urban Design increased for the third consecutive year. The school's enrollment increased by 36 students to 788, which was a 4.8 percent increase from last fall.
"We know that young people coming out of high school have interests in architecture, engineering and planning." Gaunt said.

John Gaunt, dean of architecture, said it was difficult to identify a specific reason for the growth, but it reaffirmed that students continued to be interested in the school.
But the school has a limit of growth it can handle, he said.

"We don't have too much extra space," Gaunt said. "We always struggle to accommodate more students, but this amount of growth we can handle."
The School of Education had a 4.1 percent decrease in enrollment from last year, which continued its downward trend during the last few years. This fall, 2,227 students enrolled in the school, which is down 111 students from last fall.
"When the economy is healthy, fewer students come back to get a graduate degree," Symms Gallagher said.
Karen Symms Gallagher, dean of education, said that several factors had contributed to the decline, including the economy.

New bus passes to arrive next week
New bus passes have arrived and will be distributed next week, said Nicole Skalla, transportation coordinator.
The passes look similar to the smart card but will not have the magnetic strip or the computer chip and will have stickers distinguishing the type of bus pass they have, she said.
Skalla said KU on Wheels decided to revert to the old system because of problems using the smart cards as bus passes. The electronic card readers malfunctioned and caused delays.
Students must have their new passes to get on the bus by Monday, Oct. 1. Skalla said students would have to pay the $1 I see to ride the bus if they did not have a new pass.
Passes also will be available from 5:15 to 6:30 p.m. Wednesday evening at Oliver Hall and from 5:15 to 6:30 p.m. Thursday at Gertrude Sellards Pearson-Corbin Hall Hall.
Monday and Tuesday passes will be distributed from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. in front of Wescoe Hall and from 5:15 to 7:30 p.m. at ekdhal Dining Commons. Wednesday and Thursday, the passes will be distributed from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. in the lobby at the Kansas Union.

New calender proposal to offer fall break, intersession period
Plan not finalized should not effect pre-planned dates
By Jason Pearce
Kansan staff writer
Bill Tsutsui, chairman of the Calendar Committee, believes a new school calendar can be created that pleases all University factions.
Presenting his new ideas to University Council yesterday afternoon, Tsutsui, assistant professor of history, said it would be possible for a new school-year calendar to include a fall break and an intersession period, an extended winter break that would give students the opportunity to take study abroad trips or short courses. The calendar would not omit stop day or shorten spring break.
"And we can get graduation in before Memorial Day." he said.
Tsutsui did not share definite ideas with the council, but he said the Calendar Committee would need to do more research.
Earlier this month, the committee worked on a similar calendar
proposed by Provost David Shulenburger. The committee concluded that it was unworkable because it would have forced graduation onto Memorial Day weekend in two out of the next five years.
Tsutsui said the committee did not fully investigate issues such as benefits of an intersession versus a shorter summer, the effects a new calendar would have on faculty contracts or the effect on summer-school schedules.
Shulenburger said he would like to see intersession begin Jan. 2 and last for two and a half weeks.
"What I had requested the calendar committee to consider to start the spring semester after Martin Luther King Day," Shulenburger said. "That moves the semester back one day and doesn't change graduation Sunday."
Shulenburger said that he did not want the new calendar to push the semester later into the school year.
"As a campus, we ought to think about this well and come up with a good calendar," he said.
CALENDAR OPTIONS
Fall break: a four-day weekend in October
Shulenburger said that the current calendar did not allow for short study-abroad trips or research classes during the winter break.
- Intersession period: extended winter break that would allow students to take study abroad trips or short courses
"Also, that is off-season travel time, and students can travel cheaper, he said.
Tsutsui cautioned the council that any new calendar proposal would take time to develop.
"There are a number of constituencies both on and off campus with deep investments in the academic calendar, and we should move deliberately to ensure that all interested parties are adequately consulted," he said.
Ryan Oelkers, Dodge, Neb., freshman, said a school calendar that included an intersession period would be beneficial to some students.
"It would be great for people who want to study abroad, but other people may not like that if the school year starts earlier," he said.

Release of Clinton tapes neccesary
This Monday, Americans were enthralled by the videotape of President Clinton's testimony to the grand jury investigating him; all major television news networks televised the four hours of testimony, and millions watched.
The House of Representatives Judiciary Committee was right to give Americans the chance to view this disturbing and somewhat saddening piece of history.
Such widespread distribution of a sitting president's testimony in any case is unprecedented. Not only has the committee released Independent Counsel Kenneth Starr's report, they now have released hundreds of pages and pictures of supporting evidence to the public. No president has ever had to experience an inquiry of this depth
The American public has a right to information that could lead to impeachment.
concerning his sexual history.
The president's defenders have criticized committee members for releasing the tapes, accusing them of trying to embarrass the president. Unfortunately, Clinton already has embarrassed himself and weakened the power and stature of his office. All the evidence that the public has seen has not been overwhelmingly shocking. Rather, it confirmed most people's suspicions.
On the other hand, the modern presidency is as dependent upon public opin
ion as it is upon legal restrictions if not more so. When an executive can no longer bring any credibility to the office or has such a damaged reputation that he cannot effect any positive change, it is time for him to leave — either through resignation or impeachment.
Members of Congress admit that public reaction will weigh heavily on the committee's decision to draw articles of impeachment.
Thus, the committee was correct in releasing the tapes for public scrutiny. When these tapes, in addition to other evidence, have the potential to affect whether a momentous and solemn process such as impeachment occurs, the American people have the right to see why this process should or should not take place.

Basketball creates parking nightmare
The number of vehicles that fans bring with them to the games is a heavy stress to both the parking lots around the field house and the traffic flow through Lawrence.
For many students, basketball season approaches at a painfully slow pace, reminiscent of the traffic flow away from Allen Field House after every home game. Although the Athletic Department and Parking Department work hard to ease the burden of cramped parking lots and jammed streets, they should try working a bit harder.
To ease the traffic jam, the KU Public Safety Office and the Athletic Department have established traffic pattern to direct the flow along specified streets, said Sgt. Troy Mallen of the KU Public Safety Office.
However, for students who need to study on campus during basketball games, parking is still a problem. Parking lots around the field house are reserved several hours before each game for basketball season-ticket holders.
Students who need to be on campus during games can contact the parking department.
Season-ticket holders who donate $500 or more to the Williams Fund receive permits to park their cars close to the field house. After parking, Students must make a long trek from the other side of campus to reach academic buildings in the vicinity of the game.
The Williams Fund, which provides about 30 percent of the funding for the Athletics Department through donations, bought 2,280 parking spaces around the field house for all 15 home games this season at $6 a space a game.
said Donna Hultine, assistant director of the Parking Department.
Despite the significant amount of money that students contribute to KU each year through tuition alone, only 30 parking permits were given last year to law students who needed to get to Green Hall during games. Not even faculty who have offices in Learned Hall were offered permits to park in the small lot next to the building.
Although 30 permits for three entire KU schools is paltry, the parking department does try to work with requests from students who cannot plan their academic schedules around basketball games. Hultine said.
Students who need to access the campus during home basketball games should contact the Parking Department at 864-7275 to work out any schedule conflicts well before nights of home games.

Foes should expect right to choose view on abortion
Often ask myself why it is that during this time in our nation when most of the country touts the importance of respecting diversity, we see glaring intolerance when it comes to certain issues?
Lisa Kreiner
Guest columnist
---
After this week's informational demonstrations regarding abortion and the anti-abortion cause, I began questioning what is being sought and whether it is consistent with the current zeitgeist in the United States regarding diversity. I would offer that it is not at all consistent, and that anyone who holds the belief that diversity should be preserved and respected should necessarily also respect the abortion-rights position.
Perspective
Many — if not all — of the individuals who favor the anti-abortion perspective also favor legislation that would prohibit women from having access to pregnancy-termination services under many conditions or altogether.
The protesters' large photographs attempt to draw parallels between the Holocaust and abortion, but the parallel actually lies between the rigid, one-sided and intolerant thinking patterns that can be observed both in those individuals who supported the Holocaust and the individuals who would support a legislative ban of access to abortion. The meta-message conveyed by each of these groups is: "I cannot tolerate ___ and I will attempt to see to its/their elimination." Only what fills in the blank differs; the overall pattern of thinking is the same.
date abortion of all pregnancies for the next several years. There are many supporters of this idea who are putting forth a great deal of effort to see that this suggestion is made into law.
For those of you who are anti-abortion and/or are in favor of banning abortion and cannot empathetic with individuals who are abortion-rights advocates, consider the following hypothetical example. Suppose that you have just gotten married and that you and your spouse are eager to start a family. However, there has been a population explosion in the United States, which has led to the proposition of legislation that would man-
How would you feel about this potential law that takes away your choice regarding giving birth to a child? Would you be outraged? Would you feel angry? Would any of you speak out against this legislation and say that no one should be able to take that choice away from you? Many of you would be very angry at the thought of this potential restriction and would want to preserve your right to choose whether to give birth. These feelings that you have just imagined are very similar to those felt by individuals who are strong abortion-rights advocates when faced with individuals who would attempt to restrict access to abortion. Moreover, if you felt that you would react to the example in the way that I have suggested, are you not also in favor of choice? In this case, the choice is your right to choose life, to choose to give birth to a child.
Please understand that I am not arguing that everyone should think that abortion is a good or moral practice. What I am contending is that everyone should respect each individual's right to have his or her own belief about this issue, even if it is different from his or her own belief. It is precisely for this reason that we should avoid legislation of moral issues. We should not expect everyone to evaluate moral issues in the same way. This expectation is at best unreasonable and at worst rigid, intolerant and potentially damaging.
The advantage of the current state of the abortion legislation is that regardless which position you support — abortion-rights or anti-abortion — you are free to act in a way that is consistent with your belief system.
We all should strive to respect and encourage diversity, even if this means seeing other people engage in behavior with which we fervently disagree. This is the price of freedom and preserving diversity. But this price is worth paying because when we preserve diversity we are preserving the complexity, excitement and richness of the world in which we live.

fat? What if I told you that buying a Subaru Outback would make you as cool as Crocodile Dundee? What if I told you that a cool can of watered-down Coors Light should follow all the mountains you climb in life?
I am tired of people selling me things. I am tired of people trying to sell me happiness in material goods. I am tired of a brain-devoid culture in need of gadgets and conveniences. I am brain washed to be a recepticle for the great American culture that makes me consume, consume, consume. Just buy it, baby.
I tell myself I can get away from materialism at this "great liberal oasis," the University of Kansas. This myth is ingrained in my consciousness as much as the advertisements that pound me each day.
But that argument lost its truth long ago. Students attend college in 1998 to get a piece of paper and limp off into the world devoid of critical thinking abilities, but prepared to chase down the highest starting salary available. Yeah, higher education is doing its job.
The messages bombard us from all sides. From the cocaine of the masses (opium seems a bit outdated), television, to public places. Does any public debate occur on Wescoe Beach or just a capitalistic orgy of long-distance services pandering for a quick dollar or frat boys selling tickets to a money-making "music festival"? We are brainwashed to the point of forgetting the point of a liberal education.
The great American university did its job. Graduate from college, push papers for 40 years and retire. Then I can do something important with my life. I'll buy that.
This is not a country or a university set up to have a soul. This is a country and university set up to make money. I guess I will deal with it and get on with life. Enough idealism. Given the choice of love or a new car, I choose a Mercedes. Corporate job, here I come. I'll make that down payment on the 4-Runner and the Saab for the kids and buy the suburban mansion on the golf course. Move into the suburbs away from conflict. A liberal education prepared me for American life at the turn of the century.

Healthy dialogue important above all
Maybe Chancellor Bob, no, make that CEO Bob, could shed some light on this issue when he's not jetting around the country begging for people to buy shares of Kansas University Incorporated. Maybe the future should involve corporate sponsors for the campus. The Coca-Cola Office of the Chancellor — excuse me, office of the CEO. The Commerce Bank Smart Card Strong Hall.

At least the "anti-abortion advocates" that have been parading around campus have no hidden agenda. At least they aren't trying to lie to me and take my money. They sicken and disturb me and make me wonder how thinking people can be so insensitive, but at least they make the silent majority stand up and scream. At least they shake us out of our materialistic fog and make us think about important issues.
I was surprised to read about the reactions of the leaders of some of our campus organizations to the anti-abortion display. As an open-minded, multicultural woman, I too was disgusted by the pictures displayed by the Center for Bio-Ethical Reform. The beliefs and images portrayed were offensive, upsetting, and even preposterous.

But the idea that this group should be so highly criticized for their display or demonstration tactics is even more preposterous. Who benefits from a campus or student body that only supports the opinions of those who demonstrate in an acceptable manner, especially when what is acceptable is so subjective?

The anti-abortion display crated by the center did not jeopardize the safety of the members of our community. Rather, if anything, it pro-

Committee approval needed for all activities on campus
By Pallavi Agarwal
Kansan staff writer
Student, campus and outside organizations wanting to conduct on-campus activities first must submit applications to the University Events Committee.
The Committee, which is composed of a variety of University staff, faculty and students, processes the application and advises the organizing group, said Danny Kaiser, director of the Student Organization and Leadership Development Center.
"We examine time, place and manner of the request," Kaiser said. "The committee examines if the space is available and if there is any conflict in space allocation with another group."
Tom Hutton, director of University Relations said applications were reviewed carefully.
"The committee examines what sort of disruption will be created, the security measures involved and what items will be sold," he said.
Hutton said outside organizations had to be sponsored by KU student groups.
If security arrangements have to be made in which extra police officers have to work overtime, the organizing group may be charged a fee, said Sgt. Troy Mailen of the KU Public Safety Office.
Freedom of protest at the University of Kansas is a student right listed in Article 17 of the Student Rights and Responsibilities.
The article states the University has the right to take measures to assure the safety of their property and the continuity of the educational process. Entrances and exits to University buildings and offices have to be kept free and regular classes can not be disrupted.
The article adds that peaceful picketing is permitted in public areas of the University, including corridors, outside auditoriums and other places set aside for public meetings.

Abortion debate allows explanation of opinions
By Chad Bettes
Kansan staff writer
The abortion debate held last night in the ballroom of the Kansas Union contrasted the highly charged campus demonstrations earlier this week.
While the atmosphere was calm, the subject matter presented and discussed was graphic.
During his introductory presentation, the center's executive director, Gregg Cunningham, gave statistics about abortion and showed a video of fetal development.
For a mostly somber audience of about 50 people, the KU Christian Legal Society sponsored an anti-abortion presentation and debate between the Center for Bio-Ethical Reform and the general public.
A second video showed abortion procedures and aborted fetuses in all stages of development. Much of the video focused on clearly identifiable, mutilated, body parts such as arms and hands from aborted fetuses.
He said the pictures helped bring discussion about abortion back to the university environment.
"Some very important issues become settled and people stop thinking about them," Cunningham said. "Abortion does not get discussed in a very thorough manner."
Andrea Austin, Lawrence senior and abortion rights advocate, said she attended the debate to hear the center's arguments after seeing its display on campus. She said what
she saw and heard did not surprise her.
"I thought the presentation had good organization, but I still don't agree," she said.
Austin said Cunningham had not connected the pictures with his argument well enough to satisfy her
Sandra Barnes, Taylorsville Miss., graduate student, came as an anti-abortion advocate to see what abortion rights advocates had to say. She said the evidence provided by Cunningham had silenced the opposition.
"They know it's really killing," Barnes said. "That's why we're not hearing a lot of questions from them."
She described the content of the video demonstration as horrible but thought she had to watch to fully understand the issue.
Questions from the audience ranged from whether abortion should be allowed in rape cases to when human life begins.
Sally Puleo, St. Charles, Ill., junior and KU Pro-Choice Coalition vice president, discouraged her fellow members of the KU Pro-Choice Coalition from attending the debate.
"These people have a script," said Puleo, who attended about five minutes of the debate. "There is no way students can compete with professionals who do this every day."
She also said her group had devoted many hours this week to protesting the center's display and needed to spend time concentrating on academics and other areas.

PRINCIPLES of SOUND RETIREMENT INVESTING
www.libertyhall.net
All financial companies charge operating fees and expenses—some more than others. Of course, the lower the expenses you pay, the better. That way, more of your money goes where it should—towards building a comfortable future.
RECENTLY MORNINGSTAR CALLED US CHEAP. IT'S NOT EVERY DAY YOU GET A COMPLIMENT LIKE THAT.
We make low expenses a top priority.
In fact, TIAA-CREF's 0.31% average fund expenses are less than half of the expense charges of comparable funds<sup>2</sup>. It's why Morningstar—one of the nation's leading sources of annuity and mutual fund information — says, "At that level [TIAA-CREF] is cheaper than any other
As the largest retirement system in the world'-a nonprofit company focused exclusively on the financial needs of the educational and research communities -our expenses are among the lowest in the insurance and mutual fund industries?
[variable annuity] policy, and is even competitive with the cheapest mutual fund complexes, though it offers far more benefits."4
Of course, expenses are only one factor to consider when you make an investment decision. Morningstar also noted our commitment to "consumer education, service" and "solid investment performance." Because that can make a difference in the long run, too.
At TIAA-CREF, we believe people would like to spend more in retirement, not on their retirement company. Today, over two million people count on that approach to help them build a comfortable and secure future. So can you. To find out more, call us at 1800 842-2776. We'd consider it a compliment.
"TIAA-CREF sets the standard in the financial services industry."

"You can relate to the characters," Parker said. "I've always looked up to Jamie on Mad About You."
Laura Stumpe, Lenexa freshman, said she thought Emily was out of the picture.
Many students on Daisy Hill tuned in to the season premiere of Friends last night. Students sprinkled residence hall lobbies, watching and wondering if Ross would leave Emily at the altar after he uttered his ex-girlfriend's name, Rachel, during the vows.
"It's inevitable that Ross and
Rachel are going to get back together," she said.
For some University of Kansas students, taking time out for their weekly sitcom lineup is as important as studying for a test.
The Ross and Rachel saga may not be a pressing world issue, but
Parker said that NBC had quality comedy shows that presented real issues for college students, unlike shows such as FOX's Melrose Place.
NBC's premiere week offered new episodes of popular comedies, such as Friends and Mad About You, that kept students glued to the tube.
NBC was the only major network that aired its season premiere this week.
Lisa Parker, Mequon, Wis. freshman, said that the network succeeded in hooking viewers for the season with the premiere.
"Whatever was left opened this week, I'll get to find out next week," Parker said. "It gets kind of frustrating, though, because I want to know what happens now."
Parker said that NBC's comedy lineup allowed her to tune out of the real world for a few hours.
"I have this big test to study for, so I was happy to take a break and watch Friends," she said. "It's a good stress reliever because you can laugh. Unfortunately, you have to go back to homework if you can stop watching TV."
Other Friends fans tuned in for less politically correct reasons.
"It looks as if Monica has gained some weight, but I can look at the other two chicks more," said Adam McLaughlin, Blue Springs, Mo. freshman. "It just makes the other two look nicer."
While most students at Naismith Hall went back to studies or other matters after Friends, a few stayed to watch the new comedy, Jesse, starring Christina Applegate.
Parker said the blonde actress had shed her trashy, ditty image from her Married With Children years.
"In this show, she's a single mom dating her next-door-neighbor." Parker said. "She has a different, more responsible image."
Other students were not as impressed with the born-again Applegate.
"I've never been a fan of Christina Applegate because of Married With Children. So I don't think I'll be watching this show," said Alejandra Cornelius, St. Louis freshman. "If I do, it's only because Frasier is on next."

Condemned house on Kentucky Street repaired, for rent
By Sarah Hale Kansan staff writer
It has not been 30 days since the house at 1247 Kentucky St. was condemned by Lawrence city inspectors. Now all the repairs have been made, and the house is available for rent.
For more than a week, a "for rent" sign by Jayhawk Property Management, 1912 W. 25th St., has been standing in the front lawn.
The old, six-bedroom house was declared dangerous to the tenants' health Aug. 28 after inspectors found an open pipe that was draining sewage into the basement.
The owner of the property, Jim Edwards, said all the repairs had been made by Sept. 1.
Edwards said he that tried to repair the pipe before the house was condemned but that his tenants would not allow service people into the house.
"It's not like I sat back and did nothing," Edwards said. "They refused to let my service people in on two occasions before the city inspectors even went to the house."
The former six residents of the house now are living
together in another home on Illinois Street.
On the advice of their lawyer, they moved out after a landlord contacted them about a house for rent.
"I haven't heard anything from Jim," said Emily Ritter, Reno, Nev., sophomore, and former resident. "We could sue him from what people told me, but I just want to forget the whole thing and get on with why I'm here."
Ritter said that their new home was nicer and that the rent was lower. She also said that none of the tenants had become sick from the sewage from their first house.
"It's working out great, and we're all happy," she said.
Because of problems that are not connected with the house on Kentucky Street, Edwards has turned over all the management duties of his 15 houses in Lawrence to Jayhawk Property Management.
He still will manage five other houses in the Kansas City area, where he lives.
"It's frustrating to handle problems and duties from Kansas City. It's just not cost effective," he said.

Yep, even the
Kansan rating: **1/2 out of *★★★*
Running time: 1 hour, 40 minutes
Rated R for profanity, slasher-film cleavage and Pop Rocks.
cute, fuzzy dog here catches the A-train to the Happy Hunting Grounds.
Other than that, there's little else that's surprising in this splatter-fest. First-time director Jamie Blanks seems as though he's seen way too many Wes Craven and John Carpenter movies. For all the innovation shown here, you would think he was upset about not getting to direct Halloween: H2O or something.
Populated with actors straight from the pages of Teen Beat (clearly), Jonathan Taylor Thomas was unavailable), Urban Legend tries to instill some modern folklore into its proceedings.
It seems that some misguided soul has decided to act out the so-called urban legends.
A typical legend suggests that eating Pop Rocks while drinking Pepsi causes the stomach to implode. Back in the day, Mikey, the "eats-everything" kid from the Life cereal commercials, was rumored to have snuffed it that way.
Other stories include the one about the guy whose one-night stand subjects him to an impromptu kidney removal. The film also gets some decent mileage out of the old killer-in-the-trunk routine. The only one they missed was the story about the cranky movie critic who bashed his own brains out.
Once the killer pops up on a plush prep college in New England, the rumors begin circulating; Who is it? Is it the comely redhead (Alicia Witt) who looks great in sweaters? The curly-haired lass (Rebecca Gayheart) who reminds everyone of the girl in the Noxzema commercials? The scavenging Geraldo-intraining journalist (Jared Leto)?
Natalie (Alicia Witt) and Paul (Jared Leto) grow closer as they uncover the truth behind the bizarre deaths in the movie Urban Legend. Contributed photo
Anyway, more bloodletting follows, and Blanks follows the route taken by most directors and shamelessly borrows elements from Halloween, Cape Fear and other standards in the genre. It's nothing new, but the execution admittedly is solid.
One final request: if all these hot, young directors insist on ripping off the '80s slasher flicks, could they do us a favor and create villains that measure up? Call me old-fashioned, but I just can't get worked up about a bad guy who runs around looking like he poaches walrusuries for a living.
Sale to finance new Habitat home
By Sarah Hale
Kansan staff writer
Clothes, housewares and other garage sale items will be lined up in front of Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority tomorrow for the final day of Greek Week.
The garage sale is the first fundraising project to raise the $40,000 needed to build a Habitat for Humanity house. The project is sponsored by the Panhellenic Association and Interfraternity Council.
that it was a great idea."
Sarah Heimovics, Fairway, junior, first thought of the idea during finals last December and presented it to community service representatives in the greek community.
"I thought why couldn't we do this here," she said. "We have the resources and an unlimited amount of energy. We all agreed
Heimovics said the plan was to continue raising money this year and finish the house next fall, and she said she hoped it would become an annual part of Greek Week.
Laurie Johns, executive director for Habitat for Humanity, said it cost an average of $45,000 to build a house depending on the size of the family. She said that if the greek community raised $40,000, they would be called the official sponsor.
Habitat for Humanity is in its 10th year in Lawrence and is working to build its 30th house. Johns said the organization did not give the house to a needy family; they sold it to them.
"The family buys it from us and becomes the official owner," she said. "They have a 20-year mortgage with no interest."
GREEK WEEK
Today: The Greek Olympics will take place from 3 to 6 p.m. on the front lawn of Allen Field House. Events include a water-balloon toss, tug-of-war and an obstacle course.
Tomorrow: A garage sale to kick-off a $40,000 fund-raising campaign to build a Habitat for Humanity house will be held from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Kappa Kappa Gamma House, One Gower Place.
had to donate time building houses. In addition to the garage sale tomorrow, other Greek Week activities today include the Greek Olympics from 3 to 6 p.m. on the Allen Field House front lawn.
She said that the families also had to donate time building houses.
The annual Harvest of Arts festival will begin Sunday and will run through the week. The festival incorporates music, poetry, dancing and film. All events are free.
The festival is sponsored by local businesses and volunteers.
Annual Harvest of Arts starts Sunday
At a poetry reading Monday, each of the poets will bring food to share with the audience and help pay for rented chairs.
Joy Harris, opening ceremony organizer, said the people involved in a ceremonial call to the four directions. After recognizing the harvest goddess in the ceremony, blue corn will be distributed to the crowd.
"Blue corn is used by Native Americans to give thanks. It is very sacred to them," Harris said. "The artists and musicians involved are very talented. Their words will be rather spontaneous. They would come from the heart."
Darryl Lea, a self-described folk rock musician who plays acoustic guitar and sings, said he was reuniting with his old partner, a violinist, for the event. The pair will perform Tuesday night.
Lea said they would play songs he had written during the last three or four years.
"Harvest of Arts has all the strife and heartache and everything else that goes into making it happen," he said. "I'm one of those lifelong musicians, so I still find it rewarding."
Harris said she paid for much of the cost of producing the ceremony.

In his latest film, President Clinton's Grand Jury Testimony, William J. Clinton gives an intense performance that balances the movie's simplicity. In one scene, Clinton tried to distract his grand jury audience by creating an origami swan out of his written statement. Contributed art

There is grand jury testimony and then there is art.
Few moments in home video history (with the exception of the release of The Return of Jafar) can equal the emotional purity and intellectual complexity that is President Clinton's Grand Jury Testimony. Quite simply, this is a four-hour masterpiece.
Dizzyingly elliptical and photographed with such sheer intensity that it overwhelms the viewer's innards, this testimony is a landmark for the cause of love in the face of adversity.

review
I think the moment that stands out the most to me arrives at the crucial 80-minute point. President Clinton, chugging water and facing questions from the office of the independent counsel regarding his affair with Monica Lewinsky, suddenly asks if he may be excused.
Bernard
His words, tarnished by humiliation and perhaps an inkling of pride, make the humblest of all human requests: "Would you mind if we take a break? I need to go to the restroom."
Such a staggering moment in video history (and there are few of this magnitude) requires further discussion. Watch Clinton's timing, voice and gestures; the scene is a masterpiece of sound design, choreography and editing on par with the best of Daffy Duck. In the realm of unadultered exhilation, one must look back to the early works of Chuck Norris to find a superior example of such craftsmanship.
And yet, the simplicity of the production is breathtaking. Only one character appears for the entire opus, and the camera impassively remains fixed on one point. Hitchcock experimented with such limitations, but I seriously doubt he would ever consider something this awe-inspiring. That the gamble pays off beautifully is cause for reoiling.
In a moment that hasn't stopped torturing me, Clinton tells his interrogators the details of his affair are too embarrassing to mention. As evidence, he refuses to discuss the particulars of the relationship, placing the matter with some of the greatest mysteries of the modern age. The affair, which seems both real and unreachable to the audience, is just as mysterious as "Who killed JKF?" and "Why couldn't Cybill Shepherd and Bruce Willis get along?"
Clinton's soul-baring, heart-tugging testimonial amazingly surpasses the high standard set by that monumental Robert Redford picture. Did Redford ever prove his manliness by asking for a bathroom break? Did he ever point his finger directly into the lens, daring the counselor (and into) to gaze into his psyche? I think not. I'd say Clinton's work is Oscar-worthy, but we shouldn't insult his performance with gold statues of naked men.
As for the sexual content, I found it the most poignant, harrowing exploration of human sexuality since Indecent Proposal.
Is this enough to declare President Clinton's Grand Jury Testimony a masterpiece? Yes, but there's more.
In his testimony, Clinton asks for a definition of the word "is." Do we have to know what "is" means? Beats me, but I know this much: This video tape is a colossal, unforgettable experience in the bowels of American culture.
Andrew McCarthy and his 1980s movie pals are fading away

tart making plans. Andrew McCarthy turns 38 on Nov. 24 Who?
McCarthy, star of the 1980s flicks Pretty in Pink and Kansas (which premiered 10 years ago this weekend), is limping toward middle age.
Scary. Seems like only yesterday that we were enjoying his depth and range in films such as Mannequin, Critic Roger Ebert had this to say in 1987 about the dummy-comes-to-life comedy:
"The movie stars Andrew McCarthy and Kim Cattraill, actors I have admired before and will, no doubt, admire again." Oons
It was inevitable that more than a few of the so-called Bt Packers such as McCarthy would fail to join us in the '90s. For every John Cusack or Demi Moore who made the journey, there's a mess of folks who didn't 't. (Cattrail, by the wav, just hit 42 last month.)
Hollywood runs in cycles. In the '60s, audiences flocked to the work of visionaries such as Stanley Kubrick (2001: A Space Odyssey) or John Schlesinger (Midnight Cowboy). In the '70s, the films of George Lucas and Steven Spielberg, who earned their stripes in film school, redefined the Hollywood blockbuster and the special effects realm.
The stars of 1985's The Breakfast Club pile it on during the happy days of stonewashed jeans, Menudo and Michael J. Fox. Some KU students said the teen-oriented comedies of the previous decade would wither amid today's special effect-packed action movies.
And what of the '80s, the decade that saw the introduction of MTV, New Coke and Duran Duran?
We saw Harrison Ford trade in Han Solo's blaster in favor of Indiana Jones' whip, and the guy from Crocodile Dundee won a Golden Globe award — for acting, no less.
The subject matter was the polar opposite of complexity. Usually, it had something to do with Molly Ringwald evading a serial killer on prom night or John Cusack torching an army of gremlins while spending his Saturday in detention. Or something like that.
But their influence lives today, says John Aheard, graduate teaching assistant in theater and film.
"They're doing that kind of thing on TV now with shows like Dawson's Creek and Melrose Place," Aheard says. "You just don't see the demand as much because TV is now taking care of so much of the subject matter. Any number of subjects on Dawson's could've been a movie at one time."

movies.
Chris Meissner, graduate teaching assistant in theater and film, says that many of the characteristics of the '80s teen flicks have managed to outlast the stars. The Scream movies and their imitators, he says, are in the habit of employing the same collection of actors, just like the '80s films.
"You had the Brat Pack, this repertory of actors who were in all the same movies," Meissner said. "Event today, with people like Neve Campbell or Sarah Michelle Gellar, there's a little of that around still."
The memories remain too. Just saying the names "Spicoli," "Long Duk Dong" or "Ed Rooney" is enough to get scores of students giggling uncontrollably.
"They look back at them to make fun or to laugh at the things they once did," he savs.
But Aaron Thaete, Claffin sophomore, says that audiences today are more inclined to reminiscence about '80s flicks for the wrong reasons.
That fits in with recent box office reports. Adam Sandler's The Wedding Singer grossed more than $80 million by poking fun at the stonewashed Age of Ringwald. The new breed of slasher films also earned its share of cash by providing satiric commentary along with the mayhem.
"I don't think that's what people want to watch anymore," she says. "They want to see action. Or if it's romance, they want it like in *Titanic*.
Sarah Vrabac, Tulsa, Okla, freshman, says audiences today are too sophisticated to accept the prom-going fantasies of yesterear.
Amanda Booz, McPherson senior,
says movie studios probably would
lose money on such teen-oriented fare
today.
"They're putting more money into movies and special effects," she says. "You don't see a lot of special effects in Footloose."
Exactly. Nothing but Kevin Bacon, an empty warehouse and a little Kenny Loggins.

Volleyball team renews rivalry with K-State
by Laura Bokenkroger
Kansan sportswriter
Every year, it's the same.
The adrenaline rush, anticipation and weeks of preparation all seem to funnel into one match — Kansas versus Kansas State.
At 7 p.m. tomorrow, the Kansas volleyball team will try to defeat Kansas State in Manhattan for the first time since Nov. 17. 1993.
The Wildcats were picked to finish fifth in the Big 12 Conference. Kansas State already has played three Top 25 teams, losing to No. 11 Florida and No. 16 Arkansas before defeating No. 22 Illinois last Saturday.
Last year, the Wildcats swept the Jayhawks 20. The first match was in Lawrence, and K-State won three games to none.
Although the second match in Manhattan took five games, Kansas State won three games to two.
The in-state rivalry incites excitement, but right-side hitter Nancy Bell said that the Jayhawks were looking at the game as just another stealing stone.
21
stepping stone.
"There is a lot of anticipation and preparation, but we're just focusing on our defense," Bell said.
C
Outside hitter Leslie Purkepyile is from Wamego, a small town about 14
miles from Manhattan. Purkeypile said that a win against Kansas State could attract some attention.
"We're definitely excited," said Purkeypile. "There will probably be a lot of people I know watching because it's so close to my hometown."
After a decisive win Wednesday night against Oklahoma, the Jayhawks discovered their potential to scramble and adjust under pressure.
Coach Ray Bechard said the outside hitters did a great job stepping up after Oklahoma's defense focused on Kansas' middle blockers — who had been leading the Javahawks aggressively all season.
Purkeypile provided a boost off the bench after Moira Donovan surrendered to the pain of a sore foot.
"She has a lot of experience, and she contributed some timely kills." Bechard said.
Donovan, who has experienced pain since the beginning of the week, visited the trainer twice yesterday and was waiting to hear the diagnosis.
"It might be tendinitis or a stress fracture but we don't know," Donovan said. "Hopefully, I can play Saturday."

Bechard said that the key factor against the Sooners was defense. The Jayhawks blocked 12 Oklahoma attacks and dug 57 balls.
"Our defense was there," Purkeypile said. "By 'there' I mean that we were in position every time. We were reading their offense better, and we were a couple of different defenses that seemed to work for us."
Beachard said defense had to be a constant theme, especially against Big 12 Conference teams.
"K-State provides a better secondary line of defense than Oklahoma so they are a bigger challenge once the ball clears the net," Bechard said. "They're coming off a great win over Illinois, and they are an experienced team. But the win over Oklahoma was a good way to start for us."
On the road again
The Jayhawks are 10-2 overall and 1-0 in the Big 12 this season.
Kansas football strives for victory in Alabama
'Hawks haven't won road game since 1996
By Jodi M. Smith
Kansan sportswriter
Kansas football coach Terry Allen's goal for the 1998 season was to create a new team from the old one.
With virtually the entire offensive line and half of the defensive line returning, he wanted a team that could produce more than last year's team.
And, so far, he has been successful.
The offense is averaging more yards and more points than last season. The defense is keeping pace with last year's defense, which was ranked in the top 10 nationally.
But this team still has been unable to hurdle one of last year's major obstacles—road games.
During 1997, Kansas lost all five of its road games.
In fact, the Kansas football team hasn't won a road game since Nov. 2, 1996, nearly two years ago.
"It's something we need to overcome," Allen said. "I believe that winning on the road deals with confidence. We lacked a lot of confidence in ourselves a year ago, and we had more confidence when we played at home."
The lack of confidence is something the team is battling but has not overcome.
The Jayhawks only road outing this year resulted in a 41-23 loss to rival Missouri.
"We didn't get the things done that we wanted to get done last year," said David Winbush, sophomore running back. "Hopefully, we can change that this year."
This weekend the Kansas football team travels to Birmingham, Ala., for a match-up against the Alabama-Birmingham Blazers.
The Jayhawks have won the last two contests against the Blazers — 72-0 in 1994 and 24-0 in 1997. Both games were played in Lawrence.
Alabama-Birmingham faced Nebraska in Lincoln in its first outing of the season and stayed with the Cornhuskers for a good part of the game before it lost 38-7.
"UAB is, I believe, a much improved football team," Allen said. "I was impressed by the fact that they went into Lincoln and played
This time, though, the Jayhawks are on the Blazer turf.
as well as they did."
The Jayhawks are taking the Blazers seriously.
"They're definitely not a team to be overlooked," quarterback Zac Wegner said. "Our team knows that they're a better football team than they were last year."
Allen said a victory this weekend would be significant.
"I think we're developing more confidence in ourselves," Allen said. "I think it would be, obviously, very important for us to go the win on the road and a burg hurdle for us."
The players are focusing on winning the game.
"I don't try to look at things as being on the road or being at home," Winbush said. "It's just an important football game that we've got to go out and execute and do the right things to come home with a victory."
After two disappointing losses early in the season, a victory this weekend would bring the Jayhawks record to an even 2-2 as they enter another conference contest next weekend.
"I do think this is an opportunity for us to go out there and get that win," Wegner said. "We could be back to 500 when we come back to play Texas A&M."

Commentary
In case you didn't notice, baseball is back.
Beauties of baseball are back this season in form of individual team achievements
After the strike, many fans (including myself) became disenchanted with the selfish, over-paid, modern-day baseball player and decided it wasn't worth watching anymore.
One of the most remarkable seasons in sports history has captivated the world and thrust the sport of baseball back into the limelight. Students are skipping classes, grades are falling, heads are turning and most importantly fans are returning.
That is until now.
This season has been so spectacular, so unbelievable and so magical that it has washed away the sins from the past and raised the sport from the ashes.
And it's not just McGwire and Sosa's annihilation of the most

revered record in all of sports.
The 1998 season has provided us with incredible individual achievements, stunning moments and a lifetime of highlights.
Cal Ripken finally took a day off after 16 years, ending a remarkable streak of 2,632 straight games. Barry Bonds became the first player in history to hit 400 home runs and steal 400 bases in a career.
A fire-throwing phenom by the name of Kerry Wood emerged out of nowhere and pitched a remarkable one-hit, 20-strike-out masterpiece. The improbable David Wells threw a perfect game. Roger Clemens has not lost since May 29 and is cruising toward an unprecedented fifth Cy Young award, while Pedro Martinez and David Cone have had seasons just as worthy.
Alex Rodriguez became only the third player in history, joining Bonds and Jose Canseco, to hit 40 home runs and steal 40 bases in the same season. Both Juan Gonzalez and Sosa are on pace to become the first players to drive in more than 160 runs since Jimmie Fox had 175 in 1938.
Craig Biggio became the first man this decade to steal 50 bases and collect 50 doubles in a season.
Ken Griffey, Jr., quietly has hit 55 home runs and has driven in more than 140 runs in another spectacular season. Albert Belle, Greg Vaughn, Manny Ramirez, Moises Alou, Nomar Garciaparra and countless other stars have helped make this year truly unforgettable.
However, individual highlights have not completely overshadowed the stellar team play.
The Yankees made a valiant run at the season record for most wins and have made a case for being one of the best teams ever with 110 wins and counting.
The Braves, with their Hall-of-Fame pitching staff, and the Astros, led by Randy Johnson, who is 10-1 with the team, have each won more than 100 games. The Cubs, Mets and Giants are in a dog-fight for the right to join the surprisingly strong Padres in the playoffs.
The mighty Indians, the resilient Rangers and the resurgent Red Sox will provide the Yankees with a treacherous road to the World Series.
This season has proved that anything is possible in this great American pastime and that baseball truly is back.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Sept. 25). You are very smart this year and very popular. It is easy to learn now, so gather valuable information. Use it to pay an old debt. Meanwhile, you can fix up your place in January and have a romantic adventure in February. Work to help a friend in March, and settle down in May. Your team pushes to success in August. Tie up loose ends in September.
To get the advantage, check the day's rating: 10 is the easiest day, 0 the most challenging.
Aries: Today is a 6.
You will go through all sorts of challenging situations today, but do not worry for a moment. The overall outcome is positive despite some momentary setbacks. You will emerge triumphant in your overall objective. There is no point in making rude comments. You know you are going to win.
Taurus:Today is a 5.
You could make a good deal today. It looks as if a compromise is needed, and a partner has the financing you need or could help you get it. If you work together, there will be more doors open to you. The bottom line could be an increase in status.
Gemini : Today is a 6.
You could get into an interesting discussion today. The other person is sharp, but there are a few things he or she does not understand. Do your best to explain but simultaneously learn. You are teaching each other. Keep that in mind when you start thinking that you know it all.
Cancer: Today is a 6.
You are ready to get serious about your work. Your mind's back on the job. There is something that has to get out today, and it requires your full attention. Get a friend or roommate to help you with chores so that you can get this matter handled before it is too late.
Leo : Today is a 5.
Today starts out slowly but picks up speed. First, take care of business. There is an opportunity, but you will need to be careful. You may have to make a trade but don't let go of something you are going to need later.
Virgo: Today is a 5.
Something is disrupted at your place. Maybe you are building a new addition to the house. At any rate, it is more of a mess than you would like it to be when your friends come and visit. Talk them into a meeting at their place instead.
Your focus is shifting in the direction of financial security. You do not think much about the future because you do not have to. You may be interested in putting a bit of a safety net in place for yourself. Follow through on that urge.
Libra: Todav is a 7.
Scorpio: Today is a 5.
you want to buy something expensive, but you're afraid that you're going to go into debt. There is a way to get around it, and that is to ask your partner's advice. You knew it was going to be tough.
Sagittarius: Today is a 7.
The sun is in Libra, and the moon is in Sagittarius,
which is marvelous. There is a rocky start this morning,
but that is OK. Do not let the few little problems
spoil your optimistic frame of mind. Set lofty goals for
this weekend. You may not get everything accomplished,
but you will have a great time trying.
Capricorn: Today is a 5.
Make decisions involving other people first thing this morning. Later, you will want to clean out closets and possibly do a little introspection. Go on a treasure hunt this evening.
Aaarius: Todav is a 5 .
Somebody wants you to behave in a certain way and is watching you closely. You do not want to do what he or she wants, so it is a conflict waiting to happen. Stifle your natural tendencies during the day. You can let them all out this evening.
Pisces:Today is a 6.
There are things to do before the weekend. For example, if you are having company at your home, you must clean the house and buy food. Make a list, and check things off. Otherwise, you could find yourself in an embarrassing situation.

DALLAS — Beginning in January, the Cotton Bowl will feature a matchup of teams from the Big 1.2 and the Southeastern Conference.
Game officials announced yesterday a four-year deal to match up representatives from both leagues in the New Year's Day game. The deal had been in the works since mid-July.

Cotton Bowl to feature opposing Big 12 teams

The Big 1.2 will send its runner-up after providing a team for the Bowl Championship Series. The SEC will provide a division champion, a division runner-up, a team with a comparable record or a mutually-agreed-up team.
For the last three years, the Cotton Bowl has pitted the Big 12's No. 2 choice and either the WAC champion or the Pac-10's No. 2 team. However, the Pac-10 agreed last month to send that team to the Holiday Bowl the next four years and the WAC announced this summer that eight teams are leaving after this season.
"Football fans everywhere have grown up with the great football tradition of the schools that comprise the Big 12 Conference and the Southeastern Conference," said Rick Baker, president of the Cotton Bowl Athletic Association.
Seven of the Cotton Bowl's top eight attendance figures came from games involving SEC teams, including a record 77,500 at the 1976 game featuring Arkansas and Georgia.
The SEC's first representative in the game's 62-year history came in 1942, when Alabama defeated Texas A&M 29-21.
"These are two of college football's premier conferences, and both have enjoyed a tremendous history with our game," said Fred McClure, chairman of the Cotton Bowl Athletic Association. "It's time that we get back to our roots. Plus, just thinking about the great match-up possibilities that exist in this arrangement is exciting."

KU runners head east to compete
By Dan Ferguson
Kansan sportswriter
University of Kansas cross country coach Gary Schwartz isn't worried, and neither is his team.
Despite a somewhat sub-par performance at the Jayhawk Invitational two weeks ago, Schwartz is happy with where the Jayhawks stand early in the season.

"I don't think the first meet was a disappointment at all," Schwartz said. "I thought everybody competed very well, especially the younger kids. The freshman have definitely improved since the beginning of practice."
Rather than looking back in disappointment, Schwartz said it was more important to look at the meets ahead, including Saturday's Iona Meet of Champions in Van Courtland Park, NY.

Senior co-captain Kevin McGinn said it was important for both the men's and women's team's not to panic and to concentrate on improving every week.
"This meet will be a good test because we'll be able to get out of the Midwest and run against more national competition," McGinn said. "We have such a young team, so we need to use each meet as a building point for the next."
The Iona Meet of Champions is one of the premiere cross country invitations on the East Coast. Both Jayhawk teams will face nationally ranked programs Saturday.
The toughest competition on the men's side will come from the host team and No. 15 ranked Iona Gaels, while the women will face an even tougher test in No. 3 Dartmouth and No. 14 Wake Forest. Iona won both the men's and women's competition's last year and are looking to become the meet's first two-time champions.
Senior Diane Heffernan said it was vitally important for the young Jayhawk women's team to gain experience and not to worry about the tough competition surrounding them.
"Our goal is to improve every race
as a team and continue to work together," Heffernan said. "With such a young team, the biggest thing we can do is gain experience for the future."
Schwartz said that the competition at the Iona meet will be an indicator
of how good the Jayhawks can be in the 98 season.
"This meet will give me a good barometer," Schwartz said. "We'll see if the team has made improvement. Everyone just needs to focus on running their best race."

Goalkeeper to make first collegiate start
By Brad Hallier
Kansan sportswriter

When the lineup is announced for the Kansas women's soccer game today, one player make will make her first collegiate start.
"I feel like I've been working real hard in practice, and I've been looking forward to this since I started here," said Katie Garrity, sophomore goalkeeper. "There will be some jitters, but I'm confident in myself that I'll do well. I am really looking forward to hearing my name and home town during the starting lineups."
Kansas coach Dan Magner said that Garrity had earned the chance to start in today's 4 p.m. match against Central Oklahoma (2-3) at Super Target Field, the second game of the inaugural Kansas Tournament. Drury and Western Illinois will play at 2 p.m. in the first game.

"I think Katie has worked very hard in training," Magner said. "She's shown herself capable when given the opportunity. It also gives Jen Cecke a little rest. We have full confidence in Katie and believe that she earned the opportunity to start."
The Jayhawks (3-4) have the opportunity to climb above the .500 mark for the first time since beginning the 1997 season 2-0. Midfielder Colleen Collins said

The tournament continues at noon on Sunday with the Jayhawks facing Western Illinois
"Because we have the home field,we are determined to do good this weekend," she said. "We've put in good hours this week in practice,working really hard,and the intensity has been high."
The toughest opponent for the four teams this weekend could be the conditions of Super Target Field. With rain all week, the field is certain to be slippery and tough to play on. Magner said that there was a possibility that Sunday's games could be moved to another venue in Lawrence or the Kansas City area.
Kansas softball begins with a busy weekend

Kansan sportswriter
Tracy Bunge, coach of the Kansas softball team, has been watching TV 24 hours a day for the last week.
Washburn University, Johnson County Community College, University of Missouri-Kansas City and Emporia State University also are participating in the Classic.
She wasn't trying to catch up on her pop culture, she was just watching The Weather Channel.
Sophomore third baseman Heather Chambers was spiked through the hand during the same drill and the injury required eight stitches. She will sit out this weekend's games but will return for a
The Jayhawks open their fall season today with a doubleheader against Pittsburg State. The games will be at 3 p.m. and 5 p.m. on the Jayhawk Field behind Oliver Hall.
Team injuries have been a problem during the past week.
Junior pitcher Christy McPhail suffered a broken left hand earlier this week and is expected to take six-to-eight weeks to heal.
Because she is right-handed, McPhaill will attempt to pitch with the injury, but she will not be able to bat or field.
Bunge is hoping that the showers predicted for this weekend don't wreak havoc on the Jayhawks' first few games of the season.
Then, tomorrow and Sunday,
Kansas plays in its second annual
Jayhawk Classic, with games running from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. on both days, also on the Jayhawk Field.
tournament next weekend.
Sophomore pitcher Jessica Kowal has suffered from tendinitis in her throwing wrist but said that she would be able to pitch this weekend.
Bunge said that DeWinter had some work to do, and that, as a transfer from a community college, she had not had some of the advantages provided by a Division I college.
The injuries to McPhail and Kowal are compounded by the fact that senior pitcher Sarah Workman still is rehabilitating her throwing arm from an injury she sustained last season. That leaves Kansas with one pitcher, junior Melanie DeWinter, not among the walking wounded.
Workman said that she found some comfort in the fact that she would be starting against non-Division I teams but still is cautious.
Workman's pitches in scrimmages unfortunately have been limited to fast balls and change-ups because she found other pitches fatigued her too much.
"They can still hit, and the fastball is the easiest pitch to hit," said Workman.
"I'm very pleased with the way they're coming together as a group," she said.
All in all. Bunge said that she was happy with her team's progress.
"To them, that's their opportunity to shine, and you just want to make sure they don't shine too much," Bunge said.
Bunge said that she told her team not to overlook the competition this weekend.

Texas A&M not down about forfeiture
The Associated Press
COLLEGE STATION, Texas — It's not clear exactly how many more games No. 17 Texas A&M must win to secure a bowl bid now that they've had to forfeit one of their two victories
All the Aggies know is this: They control their own destiny regardless.
"Hopefully, as the season plays out (the forfeiture) will be moot," Athletic Director Wally Groff said yesterday.
The NCAA normally requires teams to have six Division I-A victories and a winning record to be eligible for a bowl. But because the Aggies are playing 12 games, they'll have to be at least 7-6 to qualify.
A&M had been looking fine this year at 2-1 heading into their last non-conference game Saturday against winless North Texas. That changed Wednesday when the
Hardeman scored three touchdowns in that game and has four of A&M's six rushing touchdowns this year. He was held out of the Aggies' 24-6 victory against Southern Mississippi last Saturday after an unrelated clerical error made by the registrar's office was discovered Sept. 16.
Aggies announced D'Andre Hardeman was academically ineligible when he played in a 28-7 victory against Louisiana Tech on Sept. 12.
Though the mixup occurred outside his department, Groff said his academic officials should have caught it before Hardeman stepped on the field.
"This error should have been found in August." Groff said.
He is out for the rest of the season. The senior fullback with 30 career touchdowns never redshirted, however, meaning he could come back next year if he repairs his academic status.

Though A&M spokesman Alan Cannon said the Aggies' record stands at "2-1 with an asterisk," the Aggies are essentially 1-2 in bowl terms. If A&M wins just five more games, Groff said they'll appeal to the NCAA to have the forfeit lifted.
Groff added that he believes a program of A&M's caliber shouldn't be worried about winning six more games. When coach R.C. Slocum asked his team after practice Wednesday if they thought they could win six more, they responded
with a rousing, "Yes!"
"Not a whole lot has changed for our team other than we've lost a very good football player," Slocum said. "Hopefully, that won't wreck our whole season. There's ample opportunity for us to qualify for a bowl game if we're good enough."
Mark Jones, an NCAA enforcement director, said no one around his office could remember another instance when a team caught an error midseason and immediately forfeited the game.
"In general terms, as I read the rule—and I conferred with membership services staff as well—forfeiture means we'd count a victory as a loss." Jones said.
Ja'Mar Toombs, the only true freshman to have played so far, replaces Hardeman in the starting lineup. Senior Will Simpson, a former walk-on who has never carried the ball for A&M, is listed as the backup.
Games canceled, camps postponed for NBA
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — The good news on the NBA lockout front is that the sides are speaking to one another again. The bad news is that time is getting short.
Unfortunately for basketball fans, the bad outweighed the good yesterday as the league canceled 24 exhibition games and indefinitely postponed the start of training camps.
sion Aug. 6.
The 86th day of the lockout finished with faint hope for a timely resolution, and the likelihood that the league will be forced to cancel regular season games because of a work stoppage for the first time in its history grew.
"Nobody wants to miss the whole season, but there are 29 owners that are willing to do so if they have to," deputy commissioner Russ Granik said.
The unprecedented cancellation came one day after commissioner David Stern, Granik, union director Billy Hunter and union president Patrick Ewing met at the union's offices — the first sit-down between the sides since owners stormed out of a bargaining ses-
The sides discussed whether to resume formal talks, at which the owners would be expected to present a new proposal. The regular season remains scheduled to tip
"I don't know if we got the ball rolling or not." Granik said. "We tried to offer some suggestions, but I don't know if the process will move forward. We're waiting to hear back from them on what he there's any point to having another meeting."
NBA
But with owners looking for a definitive limit on salary costs, including a phaseout of the so-called Larry Bird exception, which allows teams to exceed the
salary cap to sign their own free agents, and the union holding its position that it will not agree to any kind of a hard salary cap, prospects for a speedy resolution appeared grim.
Hunter was out of his office Thursday and could not be reached for comment.
The league, which previously canceled an exhibition game set for Oct. 12 in Israel between the Miami Heat and Maccabi Tel-Aiv, canceled four more days of games.
Also canceled were neutral-site contests in Syracuse, N.Y., Albany, N.Y., Winston-Salem, N.C., Green Bay, Wis., Honolulu, Buffalo, N.Y., Huntsville, Ala., and Baltimore.
Training camps due to open Oct. 6 have been postponed indefinitely. Other exhibition games could be canceled next week if no progress is made.
One of the preseason games in jeopardy is an Oct. 25 match up between the Bulls and Indiana Pacers at Iowa State University in Ames, Iowa. The game could be Bulls' coach-in-waiting Tim Floyd's return to his old arena.
will be coaching the team until the lockout ends and Chicago asks former coach Phil Jackson to return one final time.
Michael Jordan has maintained he will not play for any coach other than Jackson.
The league imposed the lockout July 1 after the sides failed to come to terms about a new collective bargaining agreement. The owners had the right to reopen the contract if the percentage of basketball-related income devoted to player salaries exceeded 51.8 percent.
Floyd will not know whether he
Owners claim that percentage has risen above 57 percent.
"The owners are all on the same page," Granik said, dismissing talk that there is a core of at least eight owners who would prefer to miss the entire 1998-99 season. "The agreement has to be something that makes long-term economic sense."
The union's grievance with arbitrator John Feerick, claiming that some 220 players with guaranteed contracts worth about $800 million for the upcoming season should be paid during the lockout, still is pending.

Classic Broadway musical to play on Lawrence stage
By Augustus Anthony Piazza Kansan staff writer
The Lawrence Community Theater's production of "My Fair Lady" opens tonight, and Kelly Schellman, Lawrence freshman, will have to remember the lines of multiple characters.
Schellman is one of 21 thesplans reviving the classic musical that opened on Broadway in the 1950s and then returned in 1976, 1981 and most recently, 1993.
The musical, which has won 10 Tony Awards, is one of the largest productions that the Lawrence Community Theater has done.
"The shear magnitude of the production is the biggest challenge for the actors," director Mary Doveton said.
There are seven different sets for the production.
Because of the large size of the production and the small size of the theater, Doveton decided to use a smaller cast than traditionally used in the Broadway production.
Doveton said that there would be a lot of doubling - actors playing several different parts.
Schellman will play a servant, a maid and an ascot and will sing in the chorus.
"It's kind of difficult," Schellman said. "I play some upper-crust characters and some lower-class characters. They are extremes from both ends of the spectrum."
"MY FAIR LADY"
Schellman said that she had to change the

Ticket Prices:

■ $14 for Thursday and Sunday shows
Another challenge Schellman faced was adapting to the small size of the theater.
way she spoke and carried herself for each character.
She had performed in the musical three years ago in the larger Lawrence Arts Center.
"You have to change how you project yourself as a character," Shellman said.
Discount night for students is Oct. 2. Tickets are $7.
Performances of "My Fair Lady" will be

Tickets are $16 for the Friday and Saturday shows and $14 for Thursday and Sunday shows.
"It's one of the most popular musicals of all time," said Doveton. "It's in a class by itself when it comes to integrating the music with the play."
Arts-center project awaits city approval
By Chris Fickett Kansan staff writer
The Historic Resources Commission decided last night by unanimous vote that a Lawrence Arts Center addition would compromise the surroundings of the historic Carnegie Library building.
The vote could cause the Lawrence City Commission to reconsider parts of the renovation design affecting the historical appearance of the library when they meet Oct. 6. The size of the proposed additions would bury and obscure the building, said Jeff Messick. Historic Resources commissioner.
The Historic Resources Commission was instructed to decide whether the arts center additions would either encroach on damage or destroy the environs of three registered properties nearby.
Although the commission decided that the project did affect the Carnagie building surroundings, it voted that the project did not affect the environs of the Lucy Hobbs Taylor residence, 809 Vermont St., or the Old West Lawrence Historic District by separate 4-3 votes.
The commission also voted 5-2 that the additions would not encroach upon, damage or destroy the Carnage building itself.
The Lawrence City Commission will make the final decision on the start of the project because the city owns the building.
David Dunfield, represented the architectural firm of Glenn Livingood Penzler Architects, which designed the project.
Orchestra, choir combine on international note
Dunfield said that the additions were designed with consideration of the Carmage building.

Sounds and voices from France and Russia will fill the Lied Center tonight.
Repeating a successful 1996 concert, the University of Kansas orchestra will present "Another Franco-Russian evening" at 7:30 p.m.
KU orchestra will share center stage with 119 voices from the KU choir.
The orchestra also is scheduled to perform Sunday at the University of Nebraska's Lied Center and Monday in Shawnee Mission
"The orchestra will play music from France and Russia in the first half, and then in the second half they will play something extremely popular that everybody knows: the big Tchalkovsky symphony," said Brian Priestman, director of the orchestra.
It will be the first time in 15 years that the orchestra has left Lawrence to perform, Priestman said.
For this presentation, the 78 members of the
He said that the majority of the students who played in the orchestra were not music majors.
Although one-third of the orchestra members are freshmen, the process of putting together the performance went well. Priestman said.
"They are very loyal, wonderful kids. They play well and enjoy what they are doing. We have a good time together," Priestman said.
Keith Glantowics, Chesterfield, Mo., senior, said that the trip was a wonderful way to showcase the KU orchestra's work.
He noticed an improvement in the orchestra since last year, which helped the rehearsal process for tonight's show.
"The music for this performance is very demanding and required a lot of practice," he said. "But Mr. Priestman is an excellent conductor who has a great sense of humor. He tells so many stories, all very humorous, but they all have a point related to the music."
Tickets for tonight's concert cost $5 for the public and $4 for students. They can be purchased at the SUA office or at the Lied Center box office.

Aikman sets goal for his return date wants to run soon
IRVING, Texas — Troy Aikman's broken collarbone still aches, but it hurts more to watch an NFL game from the sidelines.
He is set to play Oct. 11 against Carolina in his target game to return to the Dallas Cowboys lineup.
He also said he would run again if it is necessary even though he was injured running against Denver.
Aikman said Wednesday he was stung by the criticism that he shouldn't have run in the loss to the Broncos on Sept. 13.
"I was sitting down and not tak
ing on the linebacker," Aikman said. "I just got hurt sliding. Then I get criticism. One week, the talking heads
TEXAS
are saying I did a good job scrambling to help us win a game. The next week, they are saying I shouldn't have run."
Aikman, who has had seven concussions playing football, said when he did return, he wouldn't just sit back in the pocket and take a beating.
"I if think it's important for us to get a first down then I'll do it again." Alkman said. "There will probably be a time when I get hurt again. I do what I have to do to win football games."
Aikman said the success of the Cowboys behind Jason Garrett in their 31-7 win against the New York Giants on Monday night might delay his return.

Endowment contributes most money ever in 1998
By Jason Pearce Kansan staff writer
The Kansas University Endowment Association contributed more than ever during fiscal year 1998.
With the recent release of its annual report, the association revealed that it gave the University of Kansas $44.4 million this year, which included scholarships, faculty awards and equipment.
These contributions surpassed the 1997 contribution of $36.1 million by 21 percent and beat the previous record of $36.6 million set in 1996. The fiscal year ran from July 1, 1997, to June 30, 1998.
John Scarffe, director of communications for the endowment association, said that a strong economy and stock market contributed to the large increase.
"We are raising more money every year," Scarffe said. "It depends on how well you do with investments."
The Endowment Association is a non-profit organization that is independent from the University. Its assets surpassed $161 million this year, which increased from $691 million in 1997.
Scarffie said the association raised money for the University through donations from alumni, corporations and foundations.
"We also manage and invest gifts through a diversified portfolio," he said.
He said that all revenue accrued from the investments was given to the University.
This included $13.6 million in scholarship, fellowships, awards, and prizes, compared to $11.2 million is 1997.
Scarffe said that recent fluctua
tions in the stock market had not hurt investments because of a diversified portfolio with a focus on long-term investments.
Outright contributions increased by 20 percent from last year to $39.9 million. Outright contributions are given by individuals or companies directly to the University — usually with specifications on how the money is to be spent.
"Donors like to give scholarship money because they feel like it helps students more." Scarffe said.
Charitable gift annuities totaled $2.2 million for fiscal 1998, compared to $58,984 the previous year. With these annuities, the association enters into a contract with donors who make a gift. The association then pays an annuity for the rest of the donors' lifetimes.
Jim Martin, Endowment Association president, said that he was pleased that direct support for the University was made possible by the generous support from numerous donors.
The largest gift of the year was a $7 million bequest by the late Paul Miller and Virginia Miller of Hays. The gift, which will eventually reach more than $10 million, was given to the School of Engineering.
"KU's supporters recognize that when they assist with a private gift, they help make a very good university even better," Martin said.
Locke said that the school had not decided what to do with the remaining money, but that a decision would come before the end of the spring semester.
Carl Locke, dean of engineering, said that $1 million of the gift already had been divided between scholarship funds and faculty development.

Free rides end, new passes in
Students must pick up new bus passes by next Monday or pay a fee to ride
By Seth Jones Kansan staff writer
This weekend has been a busy one for Nicole Skalla.
Skalla, transportation coordinator, and other members of the transportation board have had to alphabetize and affix stickers to each of the 6,700 newly arrived bus passes to prepare for the distribution of new passes.
The new passes, which will replace the use of KUIDs as bus passes, arrived Thursday evening from card manufacturer Cybermark and will be distributed this week.
By next Monday, students must have their new passes or pay the $1 fee to ride the bus, Skalla said. This week will be used as a transition period, leaving students the opportunity to ride the bus by showing their KUID.
New bus passes were necessary because problems arose with the new Smart Cards when new electronic card readers malfunctioned and caused delays.
Skalla said she had already spent more than 20 hours this weekend working to prepare for the distribution of the new passes. As of last night, the cards were still being alphabetized.
Skalla said they were doing all
the work themselves for safety and convenience.
"In order to make sure there is no fraud or tampering with the stickers, we're only letting transportation board members work with them," she said. "We could put the stickers on the passes as the students pick them up, but we want to make it as convenient as possible for students."
Meanwhile, bus drivers are looking forward to knowing who is riding the bus.
For the last two weeks, with card readers broken and no new passes, bus drivers have been allowing anyone with a KUID to ride without paying.
Genie Kingsbury, third-year bus driver, said that on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, attendance on her bus doubled.
"I do believe that the students have taken advantage of us not knowing who has and who doesn't have a bus pass," Kingsbury said.
Silvia Brasil, Brazil junior,
was one of the students who took
advantage of bus drivers not
knowing who had valid passes.
"I rode because I knew it was free, and it's been raining a lot lately," she said. "The bus is very convenient, and it's going to start getting cold, so I'll probably go ahead and buy a bus pass now."
Alcohol survey to be distributed
Alcohol task force seeks answers to problems, will survey students
By Melody Ard
Kansan staff writer
In an effort to determine the role that the University of Kansas plays in local alcohol problems, the University will survey students this week, asking them to share their opinions about drinking.
Survey results, which will be available in November, will be contributed to an alcohol task force. The group will be composed of representatives from the University of Kansas, Haskell Indian Nations University, Lawrence public schools and the City of Lawrence. The task force is studying alcohol abuse trends in Lawrence.
Although specific incidents, including the March 31 death of KU student Lisa Rosel, have received considerable public attention, said Jeff Weinberg, task force coordinator and assistant to the Chancellor. He said the task force was trying to do more than respond to particular events.
"This isn't about reacting to an incident and
"This isn't about reactin', it's not about whether the drinking age should be 18 or 21," he said. "It is about what we can do here in Lawrence, and specifically what we at KU can do, and what others can do to help."
The survey will be distributed randomly in classes to about 1,000 students. Question topics will include how much students drink, how students obtain fake IDs and what bars are easiest for underage drinkers to enter.

Shulenburger: Survey will help focus committee.
"The knowledge we gain
The knowledge we gain from the survey will be used to design targeted strategies to reduce alcohol abuse on our campus." said Provost David Shulenburger.

According to a recently released survey by the Harvard School of Public Health, one in five students on college campuses is a frequent drinker. The Kansan understands that alcohol is a part of the university scene whether students choose to drink socially, drink underage or abstain completely. The Kansan does not wish to influence the choices students make. We hope this week's series will better inform students about the agendas of administrators, local and state officials, bar owners and their fellow students.

Thieves inflict $3,248 worth of damage to 8 cars at Naismith
Eight students' cars parked in the east parking lot of Naismith Hall were targeted by thieves early Wednesday morning, causing a $3,248 loss, Lawrence police said.
Kansan staff writer
Property was stolen from four of the cars, and the other four were damaged.
Police said the thieves tried to enter the cars by removing the
molding around the windows.
Of the four cars broken into, at least two of the cars were locked.
Lawrence police said that they didn't know whether the other two cars were locked, but that the cars were entered and $1,328 in property was stolen from them.
Two CD players, 40 CDs, a cellular phone and eight rolls of toilet paper were stolen from the two cars.

One of those victims, Andrew Kelly, Prairie Village freshman, said that his door being locked didn't protect his property at all.

Kelly said the thieves used a "slim jim" — a long, metal, paper-thin device that is slid down the window into the door — to break into his car.

He said that his insurance would cover the damage to his car, but not the stolen CDs or stereo equipment.

outney were unsuccessful, police said. The damage to their window moldings was estimated at $100 each.
Besides just locking their doors, police also warn students not to leave valuable property on their seats or other places that would be visible from outside of their cars and to park in well-lighted areas.

Investigators say Clinton funds possibly illegal
WASHINGTON — House investigators have gathered evidence suggesting that the company of a major Democratic donor reimbursed its employees for donations they made to President Clinton's 1996 re-election campaign.
Federal law prohibits the use of corporate funds to make donations directly to candidates and also outlaws using 'straw donors' to disguise the real source of contributions.

company headed by Mark Jimenez, received $1,000 bonus checks a few days before they wrote personal checks for the same amount to the Clinton-Gore campaign in 1995.
In an affidavit obtained by The Associated Press, one former employee told the investigators that Jimenez's assistant told her that Jimenez wanted to raise $20,000 from Future Tech employees for the Clinton campaign. She was asked to make a $1,000 contribution for which she would be reimbursed.

Investigators for the House Government Reform and Oversight Committee have gathered payroll records suggesting employees of Future Tech International, a Miami computer
The employee, Daria Haycox, said she testified about the matter before a grand jury in February.
Neither Jimenez nor his company has been charged with any wrongdoing. The House panel subpoenaed Jimenez and some of his employees, but the company executive declined to testify, citing his Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination.
INTERNATIONAL Serbian forces attack ethnic Albanian rebels
PRISTINA, Yugoslavia — Serbian forces have launched a new offensive in southern Kosovo against ethnic Albanian rebels, Serb and Albanian sources said yesterday.
Police units and specially trained elite troops have begun mop-up operations to purge the secessionist Kosovo Liberation Army from the area, 30 miles southwest of the province's capital of Pristina, a Serb police source said on condition of anonymity
The latest action followed a strong Serb offensive against KLA rebels in
central Drenica region. That offensive came as the U.N. Security Council demanded an end to the Serb crackdown and NATO finalized plans for air strikes unless the fighting stops.
In Bosnia-Herzegovina, Defense Secretary William Cohen repeated warnings that Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic had only "a short period of time" to comply with international demands to end the conflict.
The separatists suffered defeats in southern Kosovo earlier this year but apparently have regrouped. Police sources said the rebels recently kidnapped two Serbs, which prompted the new action.
The Albanian-run Kosovo Information Center said Serb forces were attacking from three directions near the towns of Suva Reka, Urosevac and Stimlje, southwest of Pristina. The attack focused on 11 villages, three of which were on fire.
Australian plant burns creates gas shortage
MELBOURNE, Australia — Natural gas supplies to Australia's second most populous state were crippled yesterday after a series of explosions at a gas plant.
A blaze at the largest plant in the state of Victoria was extinguished late yesterday, but not before it had extensively damaged the 29-year-old plant, as well as pipes to two other plants.
At least five explosions and several fires ripped through the Esso plant on Friday near Sale, about 110 miles east of Melbourne, killing two maintenance workers and injuring eight others.
The damaged plant supplies 80 percent of Victoria's gas, and about 1.4 million homes and businesses have been ordered to turn off their gas. The blast has also shut down factories, forced hospitals to cancel elective surgery, and could halt the gas supply for cooking and water heaters for at least a week.
Gas from neighboring New South Wales state was being fed into Victoria's grid in an effort to keep it open and was supplying about 1.0 percent of normal requirements, the company said.
Labor Party elections set Blair's policies back
BLACKPOOL, England — Prime Minister Tony Blair was dealt a setback within his own party yesterday when leftists who opposed his centrist policies won several seats at governing Labor Party elections.
On the first day of the annual party conference, left-wingers took four of the six places chosen by rank-and-file members on the party's 32-member National Executive Committee.
Lefists in the party consider them selves the standard bearers of the socialist policies that Blair's "New

Labor" has ditched. Their victory was largely symbolic, however, because the committee is still solidly controlled by Blair supporters. Outside the Winter Gardens conference center in Blackpool, several thousand left-wing demonstrators chanted
"tax the rich" and "workers united will never be defeated."
Blair immediately warned Laborites against a return to the internal warfare that helped keep the party out of office for 18 years until his May 1997 landslide election victory over the Conservative Party.
Military fights rebels for Sri Lankan highway
COLOMBO, Sri Lanka — Government soldiers clashed with Tamil Tiger rebels yesterday in a battle for a strategic highway in northern Sri Lanka, leaving at least 49 fighters dead, the military said.
The dead included 40 rebels and nine soldiers in the fiercest fighting in the past two months, the military said. There was no immediate statement by the guerrillas.
The rebels attacked soldiers on defense lines near Paranthan, a town 175 miles north of Colombo, the Sri Lankan capital.
Lamin Capital
Paranthan is close to a 45-mile highway passing through rebel-held territory that the military has been trying to capture for more than a year. Its control would open a road link to Jaffna Peninsula, a former rebel stronghold at the northern tip of Sri Lanka that was captured by the military two years ago.
tired by the military two years ago. Since then, the government has been airlifting or shipping food and other supplies to Jaffna's 500,000 people.
So far, government troops have captured nearly two-thirds of the highway, with a 15-mile stretch still controlled by the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam.
Lawrence's annual Harvest of Arts festival will run throughout the week. The festival, which began yesterday, incorporates music, poetry, dancing and film. All events are free.

A KU student's CD player was stolen from his car parked in the 2000 block of Mitchell Avenue Thursday morning, Lawrence police said. The CD player was valued at $60.
A KU student's Les Paul guitar was stolen Sept. 17 from the 1100 block of Lawrence Avenue, Lawrence police said. The guitar was valued at $4,650.
The molding around the passenger window of a KU student's car was damaged Wednesday in the 1100 block of Louisiana Street, Lawrence police said. The damage was $250.
Puff Pant Prom fund-raiser held at Riverfront Mall
Friends of the KU Women's studies program held the Puff Pant Prom fundraiser Saturday in the food court of the Riverfront Plaza Mall.
The dance took place from 8 p.m. to 12 p.m. and about 75 people attended.
p.m. - 10:30 people
rank Yard Jazz, an eight-piece band,
provided music
The prom began in 1924 and ended in 1941.The women attended the event dressed as men or women. With the revival of the prom, both sexes were encouraged to attend dressed in costumes of the '20s or '30s.
Billie Archer, treasurer of the Women's Studies program, said that they broke even, but that donations could still be made to the program through the endowment foundation. Archer said she was pleased with the turnout.
"This is only the second annual prom, so our goal really was just to get the idea into people's minds," she said. "Next year we hope to return the prom to the original location, which is the Kansas ballroom. That would probably help with the turnout."

Weak ticket sales force theater's close
By Seth Jones
Kanson staff writer
Stella got her groove back for the final time at midnight last night at the Hillcrest 5 Theatres.
How Stella Got Her Groove Back was the final movie to flicker on the big screen at the dollar theater. Hillcrest 5,925 Iowa, had been showing movies in Lawrence for 25 years. The theater closed its doors for good at 10:10 p.m. last night.
Hollywood Theaters held the lease on the building and decided to let it expire. The need for repairs compounded with slow ticket sales made the company decide to close the theater, said John Ratzlazff, general manager and Lawrence senior.
The employees at Hillcrest 5 all have been offered jobs at the Southwind 12,3433 Iowa. Even though 6 of the 11 employees have accepted jobs at the Southwind, they said they still

felt like they would be losing something.
"We'll obviously be overstaffed over there," she said. "So I've gotten another job in addition to this one because I need so many hours a week to get through college."
Her job also will change.
"Kristel is one of our two best pro projectionists," Ratzlaff said. "But at Southwind, she's not guaranteed her same position, so she'll be stuck in concessions."
Keri Krueger, Sioux City, Iowa, freshman and assistant manager, said it felt like a family was being torn apart.
"I've really enjoyed working here," she said. "The staff here is very close."
As a way of saying goodbye to the theater, employees had a slumber party in the building Saturday night.
Corey Peck, Olathe sophomore,
brought his television.
"We didn't watch any movies on the screen," he said. "But we did bring in a TV and play video games, and we even played some hide and go seek."
Theater employees were not the only ones sad to see the dollar theater go.
Cheryl Mottern, Lawrence High School sophomore, waited to see the final showing of How Stella Got Her Groove Back.
"I come to this theater a lot," she said. "It gives us something to do, and it's cheap, and it's fun."
Mottern said the $1 price tag for movies was what she liked best about the theater.
"Me and a lot of my friends come out here," she said. "We're young, and we can't get really good jobs. We don't make enough money to go to the expensive theaters."
Cosner was bothered because she said people were upset with the staff about the theater's closing.
"They vell at me because my boss

in Dallas is closing us down," she said.
"People think we're anti-student or something, but we're not — we're students too," she said. "It just doesn't make sense to keep this theater open."
Krueger was angry with the actions of some of the theater's customers.
"People are upset because we're closing," she said. "But I'm mad at all the people who snuck their own food and drink in here and made us close because we couldn't make any money in concessions."
Hurricane cancels trip by students to Louisiana
By Pallavi Agarwal
Kansan staff writer
Nine University of Kansas students narrowly missed spending their weekend in a hurricane shelter in New Orleans.
The students were bound for a petroleum engineers' convention that was canceled Saturday as hurricane Georges advanced northward from the Florida Keys to the nearby Gulf Coast states on the northwest coast of the Gulf of Mexico. New Orleans is under evacuation orders.
"The airlines called us on Saturday telling us that the flight was canceled because the airport was being evacuated," said Brian Holmes, president of the KU chapter of the Society of Petroleum Engineers.
The six graduate students and three undergraduate students were planning to spend three days in New Orleans and return home tomorrow.
Melanie Connery, Edna freshman, said she was disappointed that the convention was canceled.
"I was going to the convention because a professor of mine had recommended it," she said.
Don Rogers, a meteorologist at the National Weather service in Topeka, ruled out any adverse impact of the hurricane on Kansas.
Connery had been watching the track of the storm on the Weather Channel Saturday and said she was not surprised that the trin had been canceled.
Hurricanes that have hit eastern Texas have led to rainy days in Kansas, but hurricane Georges is too far east, Rogers said.
Irene Georges is too far east, Rogers In fact, some of the sunshine expected in the coming week may be a direct result of hurricane Georges holding back a cold front coming in from the south, Rogers said.
Gulf Coast braces for Georges
Forecasters predict storm may strengthen before it reaches land
The Associated Press
NEW ORLEANS — Forecasters said yesterday that Hurricane Georges could begin lashing the Gulf Coast with hurricane-force winds, and more than a million residents have been told to evacuate.
"This is kind of like looking down the barrel of a shotgun and hoping it turns," said Louisiana State Police Lt. Col. Ronnie Jones.
Rain squalls arrived during the morning along the coast of the Florida Panhandle, Alabama and Mississippi. Surf washed over roads on some of Florida's barrier islands.
Georges killed more than 300 people in the Caribbean before it smashed into the Florida Keys with winds more than 100 mph. No deaths or injuries were reported in Florida.
Forecasters said yesterday the storm may strengthen before it makes landfall, pushing tides up to 15 feet above normal.
Although New Orleans is protected by 130 miles of levees, city officials worried that Lake Pontchartrain and Lake Maurepas could spill over their banks and send water flooding into the city and its suburbs.
At 7 a.m. yesterday, Georges had top sustained winds of 110 mph and was centered on 190 miles southeast of New Orleans, or about 75 miles southeast of the mouth of the Mississippi River, the National Hurricane Center said.
It was moving northwest at about 10 mph and hurricane-force winds of at least 74 mph extended 115 miles outward from Georges' center.
Hurricane warnings were posted along 300 miles of coast from Morgan City, La., to Panama City, Fla. Hurricane watches were posted on the flanks of the warning area east to St. Marks, Fla., and west to Intracoastal City, La.
More than 1.5 million people had been ordered or urged to leave New Orleans and low-lying coastal areas. Bumper-to-bumper traffic jammed Interstate 10 out of the city into the early hours yesterday, and the American Red Cross said it expected to house 35,000 evacuees in dozens of shelters around Louisiana.
Thousands more were told to leave coastal sections of Mississippi, Alabama and the Florida Panhandle.

16-year reign ends in Germany for Helmut Kohl
By Angela Johnson
By Angela Johnson Kansan staff writer
Gerhard Schroeder and his Social Democrats defeated Helmut Kohl yesterday in Germany's national elections, ending Kohl's 16-year reign as the country's leader.
University of Kansas students from Germany expressed their hopes and uncertainties that Schroeder would be a stronger leader than Kohl was.
Benedict Kemmerer, Waldorf, Baden-Wuerttemberg, graduate student, said Schroeder, 54, would have limited means for changing Germany.
"His room for maneuvering is limited because of the sizable budget deficit," Kemmerer said. "Foreign, social and economic policies will all be determined by budget constraints."
The official results of the election have not been tallied yet, but the exit polls, which have been revealed, are reliable indicators of official results.
Unemployment is at more than 10 percent in Germany. Schroeder plans to combat it primarily by opening dia logue among union, industry and government officials.
Kemmerer said Germans voted among five parties — Social Democrats, Christian Democrats, the Green Party, the Free Democrats and the Party of Democratic Socialism, which is the former state party of East Germany.
"In Germany, it's not as important as who wins but more by how big the percentage is," Kemmerer said. "We vote by party, and the Cancellor is voted in by Parliament."
Schroeder's party won 41 percent of the vote, according to exit polls. The Christian Democrats won 35 percent, the Free Democrats and the Green Party won 6.5 percent, and the Party of Democratic Socialism won 5 percent.
Lars Kiesel, Herford, West Phalia graduate student, said that he was unsure whether Schroeder could solve the country's economic problems but that he could not be any worse than Kohl.
"It was time for a change." Kiefel said. "It's hard to say if his policies are going to be much better."
"If you look at him, he's a bit clumsy," he said. "He doesn't present himself as very genuine."
Kiesel said that Kohl, 68, was an unpopular leader because he was insincere with the public.
Kiesel added that Kohl was a selfish leader who disguised himself as a people-person.
"He seems like a very folksy person but he's very self-righteous," he said. "The stock market in Germany is booming, but there's more unemployment than ever before. It's like Reaganomics. The rich are getting richer and the poor are getting poorer."

Perspective
Regardless of the decision, people have right of choice
E
Every minute of every day, somewhere in the world someone is making a decision with which, were I to know of it, I would disagree legal, everyday decisions such as whether to have another drink or whether to charge something you can't afford. Among the choices
made by someone every day is whether to have an abortion. For many of those women who do choose to have an abortion, I might not feel that they made the best decision, and if it had been up to me, I might have chosen differently. However, it's not up to me, nor should it be. Whether it's buying something you don't need and can't afford or deciding what to do about an unplanned pregnancy, the decision is properly in the hands of the person or people whose lives will be directly affected by the situation. I have not

lived their lives and am not the person who has to live with
the consequences of his or her decision.
However, there are many people who feel that their decisions are what's best for everyone, and they often try to get laws passed in an attempt to get others to conform to their world view.
By naming their organization "Genocide Awareness Project" they are trying to tie abortion to occurrences that many people who would not normally be drawn to rightwing Christian rhetoric already abor. First of all, by no stretch of the imagination can the word genocide be properly applied to abortion as is practiced in this country. Webster's 3rd New International Dictionary defines genocide as, "The use of deliberate, systematic measures (as killing, bodily or mental injury, unlivable conditions, prevention of births) calculated to bring about the extermination of a racial, political, or cultural group or to destroy the language, religion, or culture of a group." The right to safe and legal abortions and the exercise of that right in this country is an individual choice made by pregnant women for individual reasons and is in no way systematic or deliberate as relates to "calculated extermination." Also, there is, to my knowledge, absolutely no "racial, political, or cultural group" whose existence is threatened because of access to safe and legal abortions. As a matter of fact, an excess of children is almost certainly a bigger problem than abortions. Although I don't for a moment suggest that abortion is a preferred solution to overpopulation, (I'm much more an advocate for prevention of pregnancy via abstinence and/or birth control), the fact remains that abortion does in no way threaten any particular group.
One such group has come to KU and although I do not deny that they have a right to speak, I find it abhorrent that they've used that right to lie, distort, and play on people's emotions by using photographs to draw totally inaccurate parallels. In short, their entire message is one of fabricated comparisons and inaccurate propaganda, starting with their name.
Therefore, the label genocide as well as the comparison to lynchings and the Holocaust is absolutely incorrect and an insult to everything that those groups suffered. Should abortion be made once again illegal as this group wishes, women will most likely still seek abortions and possibly die from illegal abortions. In many cases, the same people who wish to restrict or eliminate access to safe and legal abortions are also against sex education in schools that teaches anything about birth control, programs to help disseminate information on birth control and free or discounted birth control. What they're truly saying is that everyone should live according to their morals and view of the world and that, if you should fail to live that way, tough, suffer sinner. Very few anti-abortion activists have or intend to adopt crack babies, AIDS babies, disabled babies or minority babies. The same groups who call for abortion to be made illegal also often support the death penalty and oppose welfare
Also, should these babies grow up to be gay people or doctors who perform abortions, then some "right-to-lifers" may no longer protect their right to live. Although I cannot say that the members and supporters of the "Genocide Awareness Project" hold any of those other views, the existence of many of those views among anti-abortionists are neither secret nor uncommon. Even though most antibortionists don't bomb family-planning clinics or shoot doctors who perform abortions, by eroding the legal right to choose, they are, in essence, condemning thousands of women to pain, suffering, and even death from back-alley abortions. Wanting abortions to cease does not make it so. Frankly, the world and the people in it are not as I'd wish it to be, nor is it as the anti-abortionists would have it. The difference between my view and theirs is that I accept that there are some things that are not in my power to change, and they don't care as long as they get their way.

Theater, film department should keep full-time faculty
Editorials
As enrollment in the department of theater and film is slowly increasing, the staff is rapidly decreasing. Three full-time faculty members have announced they will be retiring during the next few years, leaving a large gap to be filled. Although the professors will be missed, the students in the department are particularly concerned with the school's attempt to replace an already limited faculty. There has not been much attention from the University because the situation is still fairly new, but the students within the school are eager to be a part of the change. The focus of replacing the professors is not just to retain staff numbers but to maintain a full-time, long-term staff. Because the enrollment in the department of theater and film is growing, this is a transitional phase that requires replacing these full-time faculty members with more full-time faculty members instead of a part-time staff. Within a major like theater, which requires a great deal of personal attention between teacher and student, faculty members that are willing to make a full-time commitments are necessary. Gina Grad, the department's student curriculum representative, thought that by not

replacing the professors with full-time staff, the entire department is affected negatively. "Not to take anything away from part-time teachers or GTAs, but the department needs people who can make long-term goals and commitments." Because being a theater major requires so much time on campus while working on plays, musicals and other productions, students need a full-time staff to assist through years of working with the same productions and crews. The goal of the department is to convince the University that replacing these professors with more full-time professors will help this department — which is growing in size and reputation — to make the transition smoothly.
Most ubiquitous, of course, is the controversy surrounding the infamous abortion display and the violent attacks against it. Being pro-life, I can certainly understand and applaud a peaceful pro-life demonstration (please read further before you send the lynch mob) however, I'm also against child pornography. That doesn't mean I want to see pictures of it on my way to the library. So what do I? Obviously, the answer is to drive my car through the offensive display.
Cathy Pierce for the editorial board
Jarrod Fobes Lincoln junior
Then there is the Black Student Union, which claims that the use of lynching photographs in the display are racist. Well, I think that the very use of the terms Black (always capital B) and white (always little w) are racist. Let's face it, we're all pretty much different shades of brown, and I can't understand why the black lynching photographs should be more or less offensive than the Jewish Holocaust photographs, or the abortion photographs. Until we start seeing all humanity as our brothers and sisters, I'm afraid we're in for some rough times.
Finally, there is First Nation, who recently expressed it's anger at various sports mascots such as the Redskins and the Chiefs. Well, while we're at it, we better get rid of the Boston Celtics and Notre Dame's Fighting Irish. Nobody thinks that a little leprechaun-looking guy bouncing around with his dukes up is stereotyping? Once again, I must be too thick to see the difference.
Don't get me wrong, I love diversity. I think people should do everything possible to preserve their cultures (though I'm curious as to how well a "White Student Union" would be received). But there's no reason everything has to be a racial issue, and there's no reason that everyone who sees things differently has to be your enemy. There comes a time when we have to stop splitting hairs and screaming and fighting and just try to accept the brotherhood all humanity (I'm not trying to exclude women, but I don't think "sibling-hood" is a real word) because no one has ever changed their mind by being punched, pushed or screamed at. So whatever anyone believes, we better find some sort of common ground, and we better do it soon, because we sure aren't a lot getting done this way.
Many issues must be left to individual
In his Sept. 24 column, Caleb Stegall made several convincing arguments for the humanity of a human fetus. However, I would like to suggest that this is irrelevant to the discussion about legal abortions. It is an issue of compelling good behavior, not preventing bad behavior. Let us consider a hypothetical situation. Suppose a woman needed a marrow transplant or she would die of cancer. Let us further suppose that I am the only matching donor. If she does not get my marrow transplant, she will die. Can the state compel me to save her life? Undoubtedly, the right thing to do would be for me to donate my bone marrow, but I think that most of us would agree that requiring me to donate marrow goes beyond the state's legitimate power. If a method of abortion could remove the fetus intact, then abortion would be the removal of the mother's life support. Choosing not to support the fetus may not be right, but can the state compel her to do the right thing.

Groups shouldn't censor one another
As a pro-choice feminist, I am sickened. I am sickened to see people who presume to speak for me try to deny others freedom of speech.
About the Center for Bioethical Reform's graphic anti-abortion display, Sarah Page, the president of the Pro-Choice Coalition, said, "This message is not welcome at the University, nor will it be tolerated." The coalition, KU Hillel, Black Student Union, Delta Force and Ecumenical Christian Ministries "recognized the right to free speech but thought the anti-abortion display went too far," the Kansan reported.
It frightens me that groups who themselves have suffered censorship should believe that they may determine when free speech has gone too far. Insensitive, offensive speech such as the anti-abortion display is the only speech that needs protecting. This truth holds whether the speaker is Sarah Page, or an anti-abortion zealot or a pro-choice feminist like myself.
Rachel Robson Baldwin City senior
Abortion protesters should be thanked
I would like to say "thank you" to all of those that have been involved with the anti-abortion posters on campus this week. Not only have they opened the eyes of all that have viewed, but they have also made some valid comparisons. Though many people think that it is wrong to bring up the Holocaust and lynchings that took place during the battle against slavery, but they depict the same type of unwanted mass murders. Granted, the pictures that were on display were very graphic and to some physically sickening. But they served their purpose, and that was to show that abortion is murder.
I am all about people having the right to make their own
choices about their bodies but when it puts another life in jeopardy that is another story. Abortion is the taking of a life whether it is in the first trimester or the third, a life is lost. Whenever I hear abortion being discussed, I think of a sign — I see "Choose life. Your mother did."
Once again I would like to thank those out there trying to save the live of innocent babies.

University students need to be offended
I want to commend the Center for Bio-Ethical Reform as well as its University sponsors for bring the reality of genocide to the University community. This display invited discussion on a controversial topic which we, as a society ignore. The graphic depictions shocked and offended many people. We at the University need to be offended. We only want what is comfortable, not necessary. This type of display reminded us that the University is not a place to forget about the disturbing issues.
I hope the protests will continue discussions about issues in our society which may be troubling to us. We have reached a point in our society where every idea that we must deal with and reach an agreement that will allow us to successfully live together.
I encourage the University of Kansas to expose student and faculty to "offensive" displays like this. We need reasonable discussions in order to find acceptable ways of dealing with today's problems. Changes need to be made, and there is no better place to start those changes than the University of Kansas.

Skalla criticism unwarranted
As one who has been involved in the difficulties attendant to the phasing in of the smart card, I was disappointed to read the highly critical comments directed at Nicole Skalla in a recent Kansan editorial. I know that Skalla has worked very diligently to ensure that student rights and interests are kept in the forefront as we try to resolve the problems posed by the breakdown of many readers fist installed on the buses. The University was assured by the vendor that the smart card application had been tested on an operating bus system and that it worked. Obviously, it did not work here, and the result was great inconvenience to users of KU on Wheels.
Given what I have observed of Skalla's efforts and good intentions during this difficult period, I believe the editorial was unwarranted.

the problem.
"I sensed they recognized it was a problem with tremendous risks and dangers, but there does not seem to be a recognition that this is a problem they have to work on." Amber said. "For example, they said there should be more enforcement, but then they ridiculed law enforcement."
Although Ambler said the response from the students was at times discouraging, he still thought the task force would be able to make some suggestions for improvement before it concluded its studies in December.
Bar owners participating in a panel discussion were not quite as optimistic.
"I think the University is doing everything it can, but these students are legal adults and you can't be their babysitters," said John Davis, owner of Bull Winkles and
Cadillac Ranch.
Davis spoke about owners' frustrations with fake IDs and the unequal punishment for serving alcohol to people under age 21.
"We are in a no-win situation," Davis told the committee. "The people punished are us, but the people perpetrating the crimes are the students."
Donna Osness, coordinator of health services and substance abuse education for the Lawrence Public Schools, said she wasn't surprised to hear the students or the bar owners say problems started before the University level.
University officials agreed, saying many students have alcoholabuse problems long before they graduate from high school. But they said that does not exempt the University from trying to correct them.
Weinberg said that the University had been interested in programs to prevent alcohol abuse for several years and that he hoped some of the
programs already being used could be effective elsewhere.
"I think that Watkins and the greek communities have good alcohol programs," he said. "Over the last three or four years, we have made significant strides in education efforts, especially in the greek community. I think some of the programs that have been so successful there could be integrated into other groups."
The task force is studying improvements at the University and elsewhere, but it can not make a legally binding decision.
However, Weinberg said, the task force would offer suggestions for policy changes to groups such as the City Commission, the University and Lawrence Public Schools.
"This task force has taken its charge very seriously because there is a lot riding on it," Weinberg said. "This task force may succeed where others have failed because it is a community-wide effort."

Underage students find life beyond bars

There is life in Lawrence beyond drinking for students under 21.
Marisa Moreno, 19-year-old Wichita sonohome, doesn't drink
"I like going to clubs and just dancing," she said.
Moreno said the people she went with usually didn't drink at the clubs either. But most of her friends do drink.
"I don't go to a lot of parties because of the whole drinking thing. It just bores me," Moreno said.
Moreno doesn't drink because her father was an alcoholic and was killed in an alcohol-related accident when she was 12.

"It would be really easy for me to
Alcohol Agenda
A report from the University of Kansas Office of Institutional Research and Planning said
that more than 55 percent of KU undergraduate students were under 21 during the fall of 1997, which means that more than half of the University's students might need alternatives to drinking.
Chancellor Robert Hemenway said he had spoken with several students about underage drinking since the formation of the Alcohol Task Force this summer.
"Personally, everyone I've talked to says 'yes, there is a problem with underage drinking.'" Hemenway said.
He said that was typical for a lot of universities and that schools were trying to devise alternatives to underage drinking.
"I just think there ought to be some opportunity for students to get together beyond the possibility of getting together to drink." Hemenway said.
Student body president Kevin Yoder said many alternatives existed.
"They'll find there are a lot of alternatives and they can have a great time here at KU without constantly having to party." Yoder said.
He suggested sporting events, Student Union Activities programs, Lied Center shows and campus organizations.
Yoder said that he was more concerned with promoting responsible drinking than preventing underage drinking.
"My stance has always been that I'm not here on a crusade against underage drinking." Yoder said.
Sue Buckley, manager of student programs, talked with students at orientation about alternatives to drinking.
"No. 1 is to get involved in a student organization where you can be around people and the focus isn't drinking," Buckley said.
She said students interested in athletics could play intramursal or go to Lawrence parks, bike trails or lakes. "Just open the paper and find out what's on going," Buckley said.
For those students under 21 who still choose to drink, new bar security and strict enforcement of drinking laws have deterred some KU students from trying the bar scene.
Brian Holmes, 20-year-old Omaha, Neb., junior, went to bars when he was younger.
"Ever since they've started cracking down, I just try to stay away from them," Holmes said.
Amanda, a 20-year-old junior who asked that her last name not be used because she feared legal repercussions, said that she and her roommate were fortunate because they both had good fake IDs.
Amanda said they sometimes went to bars and hadn't had any problems getting in.
"Our IDs work all over town, so it's nice." Amanda said.

Director of Watkins retires after 26 years
By Sue Franke
Kansan staff writer
How is it better for students?
How is it better for students?
That is the first question that James E. Strobl, director of Watkins Memorial Health Center, always has asked.
"A lot of times people think we should do things because it is better for the doctors," said Strobi, the first non-physician director for Watkins. "Well, that's fine, as long as it's better for the students first."
Strobi retired after a 26-year career in college health at Watkins, and a party was held in his honor at 3:30 p.m. Friday at the health center. He has been on leave since last December after suffering from heart problems but drops in daily to visit colleagues and to read the The Wall Street Journal. He's an avid stock-market investor, and the staff at Watkins has been known to ask him for stock tips, said Jim Boyle, interim director for Watkins.
Those who know Strobl describe him as determined, tough,honest and devoted.
"What stands out to me is his love of family and the health center — in that order," said Ann Pierce, an administrative secretary who has known Strobl for nine years. "He treated this place like his baby."
Strobi instituted many changes during his career at Watkins. In March 1974, he moved the health center from what is now known as Twente Hall to its location on Schweigler Drive. From 1928 to 1986, Watkins functioned as a 32-bed, in-patient hospital. The hospital closed in 1986 because it was too costly to staff and didn't serve enough students.
Boyle credits Strobl with being a visionary in college healthcare issues. He described Strobl as someone who fought the administration and other departments to make Watkins the best college health center in the country.
"He's a stubborn Nebraskan," said David Ambler, vice chancellor for student affairs. "Jim and I arm wrestled many times on issues. If he believed in something, he pursued it with a vengeance, but if you convinced him otherwise, he would listen."
In 1993, Strobli went to Student Senate, which agreed to a $3.5.
To increase the quality of care, Strobl only hired board-certified physicians when he became director of Watkins in 1983.

Strobl: Instituted many changes in the health center.
The addition and renovation
of the existing building, completed in 1997, resulted in two exam rooms and an office for each doctor, a renovated pharmacy, expansion of the entire general medicine area, space for the gynecology clinic and a conference room. Boyle said.
In addition to his dedication to college health care, Strobil is devoted to his family, said Judy Pinegar, an administrative assistant who has worked with him during his 26-year career.
Strobli has two daughters;
Audrey, 33, and Amy, 30; and a son, Ben, 24. His wife, Diane, said that he always was dependable.
"He is steadfast," Diane Strobi said. "You could always count on him if you needed help. If he said he would be there, then he would be there."
Strobl and his wife, who will retire in October, will be taking their 35-foot trailer home to Yuma, Ariz., where they will live during the winter.
Police issue bike tickets during Friday protest
By Kelli Raybern
Kansas staff writer
Police officers from the KU-Public Safety Office issued more than two dozen citations Friday to bicyclists who ran stop signs at Javhawk Boulevard and Sunflower Road.
Kansan staff writer
Sgt. Troy Mailen said that police had to be in the area anyway because of the abortion protest on the Stauffer-Flint Hall lawn.
Police decided to monitor the intersection next to the display to make efficient use of the officers' time, Mailen said.
"We cut an officer or two loose from the perimeter to watch bicycles running stop signs," he said.
Officer Mike Flaig was working the intersection during the class change between 12:20 and 12:30 p.m. At 12:30, he said he had stopped six or seven bicyclists so far that day and that the fine for running a stop sign was $36.50.
Mailen said KU police were issuing the citations in an attempt to increase bicyclists' awareness of their part in bicycle safety.
"Bicycle safety should be foremost in their minds when out riding. They need to obey traffic ordinances because they are liable for them just as any motorist would be," Maillen said.
Brad Brooekerd, Kansas City junior, said that the officers' actions were appropriate for some bicyclists.
"It depends on what they do," he said. "If

they are just trying to get to class, it's wrong to stop them — as long as they yield to pedestrians."
Mailen said that the stops educated others besides those who were issued citations.
"Some people see the officers and it makes them stop and think," he said. "We are also educating passers-by."
In two serious bicycle accidents this semester, at 13th and Kentucky streets and Seventh and Florida streets, riders had failed to stop at a sign.
Mailen said that officers Friday were also checking with bicyclists who got citations to see if their bicycles were registered. Although registration is mandatory, police were not issuing citations to those without registrations.
"We're generally just educating them, telling them how to obtain a registration," he said.
Bicycle registrations are available at the Lawrence Police Department, the KU Public Safety Office and the Student Union Activities office for 25 cents.

KU researchers combine for $41 million in grants

Haitian choir harmonizes at University
By Steph Brewer Kansan staff writer
One of the University of Kansas's newest choirs has excellent timing
— and not just in the musical sense.
The eight-man Haitian choir Meli Melomane was touring the United States last May when the members sang for Simon Carrington, professor of music and dance.
At the time, Chancellor Robert Hemenway was preparing to have the Board of Regents at his house for dinner and was looking for entertainment. Impressed by the choir, Carrington suggested they perform.
Carrington said he had thought it was impressive that the choir could sing with such style and grace.
This year, the men will be singing and studying at the University. Ricardo Lesperance, Port-auPrince, Haiti, freshman, has been awarded a full voice scholarship for the duration of his undergraduate degree. The other members were given partial scholarships this year to study at the Applied English Center.
The University accepted the choir's director, Cathy Parrill, as a graduate teaching assistant in the department of music and dance.
Fritz Gerald Esperance, Port-au- Prince, Haiti, freshman, said the men had been singing together in school for 13 years. In 1996, Parrill formed the group while she was doing volunteer work in Haiti.
Esperance said the chair had performed throughout Haiti and the
United States and was well-known in Haiti.
Parrill wanted to bring the choir to the University because Haitian universities did not offer degree programs in music. She also said the economic conditions of Port-au-Prince made it a less-than-ideal locale.
"It was wonderful because that's their country and they love to sing there," she said. "It was also difficult. It was a struggle to try to make good music there."
Musically, Parrill wanted to work with Carrington, who specializes in counter-tenor singing, the style practiced by Meli Melomane.
"I would say there is not another person in the world who is as well-qualified to be a mentor to the group." Parrill said.
Another attraction was the University's Institute of Haitian Studies, the only one of its kind in the United States, said director Bryant Freeman.
"We get very distinguished Haitian visitors because we're sort of on the Haitian map." Freeman said.
The choir now lives in Kansas City, Mo., at the St. Andrew's Episcopal Church. They previously had sung during Easter services there and were invited to stay when the church learned they would be moving to the United States.
Parrill said she and the choir would like to move to Lawrence soon.
"It is so difficult," she said. "I think these guys have more endurance and determination than anyone I ever met."
Computer system to replace PINE in two years
By Liz Wristen
By Liz Wrister
Kansan staff writer
For the second time in two years, the University of Kansas is purchasing new campus-wide computer software.
Beginning next semester, GroupWise will be phased in to replace the PINE e-mail system within two years.
The new software, GroupWise, will cost the University between $112,000 and $115,000 per year and will offer e-mail programming, a calendar feature and scheduling programs. It can also manage documents.
The cost of the new program, a Novell Corporation product, is based on the number of full-time faculty, staff and students, who cost the University about $4 a head each year, said Wes Hubert, associate
director of academic computing services.
Thelma Simons, network administrator for the School of Education, said that GroupWise would also include an online address book that would contain addresses of University faculty, staff and students, and a function that would enable students to store assignments in an online electronic folder.
Simons will take her position coordinating the implementation of the new system on Oct. 5. It's her duty to update the rest of the campus with the GroupWise software.
The source of financing for the GroupWise software has not been determined. Richard McKinney, assistant vice chancellor for information services, said the University had asked the provost's office to research financing options.
This is the second campus-wide
THE NEW SYSTEM:
The University will spend between $112,000 and $115,000 for the licensing of a new campus-wide software program called GroupWise.
GroupWise has e-mail programming, a calendar feature, scheduling programs and document management functionality. The software will not be available campus-wide for another two years.
Two years ago the University began to install another software program called PeopleSoft. PeopleSoft cost the University $2 million and included programs for human resources, student records and the University payroll system.
software program financed by the University in two years. The PeopleSoft system, which cost the University about $2 million, began being phased in two years ago and should be completely installed by the year 2000, said Travis Berkley, a local-area-network support supervisor who is working with KU Computing Services to help set up the GroupWise software.
Chancellor Robert Hemenway said that the new software would avoid problems that may occur when the dates on computers switch to 2000.
PeopleSoft included programs for human resources, student records and the University payroll system.
"One of the primary reasons we are taking on these new systems is so that we do not have to go back and patch up the old systems in 2000." Hemenway said. "GroupWise is a good universal e-mail platform and PeopleSoft will serve as a good personal system for the University."
Center works to strengthen advising process
Meetings scheduled to introduce freshmen to enrollment issues
By Melody Ard
Kansan staff writer
The Freshman-Sophomore Advising Center is sponsoring meetings in October to make enrollment easier for about 3,000 freshmen.
The center offers enrollment advising for freshmen and transfer students with fewer than 30 credit hours who are not advised within their schools or majors. For the first time, these freshmen will have the opportunity to meet the advisers the center has selected for them before the official advising period begins on Oct.16.
Beginning Thursday, the center will hold group meetings in which students will meet their advisers and will learn what to expect during enrollment, said Kathryn Tuttle, director of the Freshman-Sophomore Advising Center.
"We want the students to come prepared to the advising appointment with an idea for a schedule, any questions and their major declaration." Tuttle said. "Their advising appointment will be much better if they
prepare for it."
SCHEDULE
Tuttle said students were notified by letter of the dates that t he i r assigned ad viser would be having meetings. A student only has to attend one meeting, and a reservation is not required.

These meetings are scheduled for Oct. 13, 14, 15 and 19 at various campus locations.
Some freshmen served by other programs—such as those in the honors program and freshman-entry programs in engineering, fine arts, and architecture—are advised within their schools and are not paired with an adviser from the center.
"We want the students to come prepared to the advising appointment with an idea for a schedule, any questions and their major declaration."
Kathryn Tuttle Director of the Freshman Sophomore Advising Center
Students, who cannot meet with their advisers during one of the scheduled group sessions can attend an open meeting.
"We have valuable information, so we hope that they all will come," Tuttle said. "We know that students have many conflicts, such as work and tests, so we will try to keep it brief — about an hour. We are not trying to add on to their burden."
Students can expect to be informed about general education requirements for their particular interests and about important dates, including add/drop and advising appointments. These meeting also will focus on
the implications of dropping fall classes.
Sarah Beaver, Shawnee freshman, said that she thought the meeting would answer her questions about advising and that she was glad that the information would be presented personally rather than through a brochure.
"It is easier to understand when someone tells you something rather than reading it," she said.

Bass player Edgar Meyer instructs backstage Saturday
Bass musicians knew that Saturday afternoon would be their only chance to have a music class with Edgar Meyer, a double-bass player, who performed with Bela Fleck and Mike Marshall at the Lied Center on Saturday night.

John Hamil, former Kansas City, Kan, graduate student, tried to absorb all he could in the short time he had with the guest teacher he said he admired so much.
"It was really good," said Hamil. "I learned more doing that than taking lessons the whole year."
Meyer conducted a master class for University of Kansas students and area musicians, and then instructed them for 30 minutes on how to improve their technique and understanding of the instrument. The class was backstage in the Lied Center in front of about 40 audience members.
"We all learned something today. He is so kind to come and share his knowledge with us."
Lawrence Rice
Professor of Bass
Mike Brownell, Reno, Nev. graduate student, who participated in the class, said Meyer did a nice job of balancing compliments of the students' music with constructive criticism.
"It would be nice to have had more time, but I think he did a good job getting a lot of points across in a short amount of time," he said.
Laurence Rice, professor of bass, said the fact that Meyer conducted the class in a small place helped the audience to interact and ask questions at the end of the class.
"It was just a wonderful event." Rice said. "We all learned something today. He is so kind to come and share his knowledge with us."
Freck, Marsh and Meyer performed to a nearly sold-out Lied Center audience Saturday night.
The three musicians have known each other for more than 20 years but do not regularly play together. They are now on tour to promote an album they recently recorded together called Uncommon Ritual.
Amy Hackmeier, Houston senior, said that before Saturday's concert, she was only familiar with the work of Fleck, a banjo virtuoso, but was very impressed with the talent of the other two musicians in the trio.
Hackmeier said her favorite piece was *Sliding Down*, a song where the performance shifted among piano, mandola, mandocello, bass, mandolin, banjo, a miniature guitar called a pappose and a steel-string guitar.

Festival commemorates Hindu energy goddess
By Steph Brewer
Kansan staff writer
For 12 hours Saturday, a building at the Douglas County Fairgrounds was the site in Lawrence of one of the biggest religious celebrations in Eastern India.
The Bengali Community of Lawrence sponsored the Durga Pua on behalf of the Midwest Sarbojanin Durga Pua committee. The Durga Pua is a worship of the goddess of energy, Durga. Between 200 and 300 Kansas and Missouri residents attended the festival.
Swapan Chakrabarti, associate professor of electrical engineering and computer science, was the main organizer of the festival.
According to Indian mythology, the goddess Durga killed the king of the demons, Mahishaura, who was disguised as a buffalo. Clay idols representing Durga and her children are worshipped during the Durga Pua.
The celebration is not all somber.
"It has its solemn side, but it's also a festivity," said Robert Minor, professor of religious studies.
Deb Chatterjee, lecturer for the electrical engineering and computer science department, said that the festival was a family time. The festival represents the time that the goddess Durga leaves her husband, the Lord Shiva, to stay with her parents.
"Most families like to have their kids come home and celebrate together," Chatterjee said.
The festival lasts for four days in Calcutta, but in Lawrence, the most important elements of the festival are fit into one day, said Saibal Bhattacharya, an engineer for the Kansas Geological Survey.
Saturday's festivities began with worship of the goddess and continued with lunch, a cultural program of singing, dancing and theater, a film show and dinner. Traditionally, the clay idols are immersed in the Ganges River, India, at the end of the festival, but Bhattacharya said the Kansas group keeps the statues.
The festival is most important in the Indian state of Bengal, Battacharya said. He said that the other Indian states only celebrated the last day, which represents Durga's killing of the demon.

Jayhawks make history
Four-overtime victory ends team's road woes
By Jodi M. Smith
Kansas sportswriter
It was a game full of — and worthy of — fireworks.
In a 39-37 Kansas win against the University of Alabama at Birmingham, fireworks were set off before the game and following every Blazer touchdown. But no flashes of red, blue and green were to be seen when the game finally ended after four overtimes.
And it was just the kind of win, their
first road win in almost two years, that the 'Hawks needed going into their game against Texas A&M this Saturday.
Despite 375 yards of total offense, the Kansas offense looked far from perfect during the first three quarters of the game Saturday night.
"We weren't playing with intensity," quarterback Zac Wegner said. "We were just out there going through the motions and not doing good things."
Through regulation, the only impressive offensive display came in the final seconds of the first half when freshman wide receiver Harrison Hill returned a punt 81 yards for a touchdown. The Jayhawks went to the locker room with a 10-7 lead.
A 40-yard field goal by sophomore Joe Garcia in the third quarter and a fourth quarter one-yard run by Wegner and two-point con-

Not for long.
Kansas held the Blazers during the second overtime and seemed to have the game in hand after setting up a 36-yard field goal by Garcia. He kicked
The Blazers answered with a oneyard rush from senior fullback Benji Morrow. The extra point was good and it was a tie game.
Wide receiver Harrison Hill was named big 12 Conference Special Teams player of the week. His accomplishments:

passion pass to junior running back Mitch Bowles left the Jayhawks tied with the Blazers at the end of regulation. 21-21.
A chance for Kansas to take the game with 36 seconds left failed after a 31-yard Garcia field goal attempt was tipped by the Blazers and flew past the goal posts wide right.
That's when the real fireworks began. In the first overtime, Wagner threw a

game continued.
Kansas and UAB traded goals in the third overtime — a 30-yarder from Garcia and a 35-yard kick from UAB's junior kicker Jake Arians.
And again it was tied, 31-31.
The Blazers retaliated with their final touchdown of the game, a 21-yard pass from sophomore quarterback Lee Jolly to split end Darrius Malone. Jolly's pass for a two-point conversion was incomplete.
The Jayhawks scored on their first play when Wegner connected with Hill again for a 25-yard touchdown pass. The two-point conversion from Wegner to wide receiver Michael Chandler was good and the Jayhawks stole the game, 39-37.
The Kansas players' screams, shouts and jumps for joy were their own fireworks after that.
"We stumbled and bumbled around enough with so many penalties and poor execution things that we could've easily quit on ourselves and we could've turned on ourselves," coach Terry Allen said. "But we didn't do that, and what a finish."
A crazy finish.
"I had a great time playing this game," Wegner said. "It has to be the most fun game I've ever played."

Nail-biter ends in triumph for Kansas football
Three overtimes later, the Jayhawks were a two-point winner against the University of Alabama at Birmingham.
High school teams each get the ball 10 yards from the end zone and have four plays to score. If both teams tied after one overtime, the overtime process is repeated until one team wins.
The Kansas football team played in its first overtime Saturday.
The Jayhawks had played in an NCAA-record 58 games that ended in ties before Division I-A adopted a tie-breaking overtime rule three years ago.
Before the first overture, an official flipped a coin to determine who would get the ball. UAB won the toss and decided to take the ball second.
The overtimes that Kansas and UAB played were similar to the high school overtimes, except the teams got the ball 25 yards from the end zone.
For football fans, the Kansas overtime session might have been confusing.
By Matthew Friedrichs Kansan sports editor
In the first overtime, Kansas didn't need a first down, scoring on the first play. But UAB made first downs at the 11-yard line and the two-yard line en route to their tying touchdown.
Kansas and UAB had the chance to make first downs before scoring.
In the second overtime, UAB missed a 50-yard field goal. On second and 15 from the 19-yard line, Kansas kicker Joe Garcia also missed a 36-yard field goal.
After the first overtime ended with the teams tied, possession of the ball switched and UAB started with the ball on the 25.
After the second overtime, the rules require both teams to go for two-point conversions if they scored a touchdown.
The teams traded field goals in
the third overtime, and in the fourth overtime, Kansas won.
After UAB scored a touchdown in the fourth overtime, the Blazers had to go for two points, and quarterback Lee Jolly's pass fell incomplete.
Kansas faced the same pressure after Zac Wegner's completed a touchdown pass to receiver Harrison Hill. But Wegner completed a pass to receiver Michael Chandler for the two-point conversion, and Kansas won by two.
Commentary
Sports can be all fun, games
Friday afternoon was perfect for a ball game.
The day had everything — sun, blue sky, green grass, white chalk, a breeze and the flags flapping in from center field.
The Kansas softball team split a doubleheader with Pittsburg State.
Saturday was much the same — a stiff breeze from the southwest, a soft infield, a partly cloudy sky, a keg of beer and a softball game.
The Kansan staff gathered for our biannual softball game. It's a grudge match between the advertising staff and the news staff on par with the rivalry between Kansas and Kansas State.
Unfortunately, like games between the Kansas basketball team and non-Division I basketball teams in the state, the series is lopsided.
The ad staff has won all but one of the games in recent memory, and Saturday's game was no exception.
The addies, buoyed by a 10-1 first inning, beat us 24-19.
But the real story of the game wasn't the seemingly inevitable win by the the ad staff.
The story was that a bunch of college kids, most of whom are

studying journalism because of a profound lack of professional sports ability, took the field, competed and enjoyed themselves.
Fielders made great catches — and big errors.
Hitters drove the ball to the fence — and popped up to the pitcher.
In short, during a weekend when Kansas cross country, soccer, football, volleyball, tennis and softball athletes were competing, some of their fellow students who rarely even pick up a glove were experiencing the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat.
Sports are fun.
Competition is entertaining.
And winning isn't everything, but it sure feels important when you're on the field straining to get to a fly ball.
We didn't have scholarships or a future professional athletic career on the line when we took the field Saturday.
But we played for fun, for pride and for the pure enjoyment of the game.
Oh, and Jodie Chester, the Kansan editor, had a bet with Marc Harrell, Kansan business manager. He would have had to shave his head if the addies lost, but because the news staff lost, Jodie has to dye her hair.
Even that has a sports precedent, albeit in a win rather than a loss.
After his Iowa State football team beat Iowa Sept. 12, coach Dan McCarney dyed his hair to celebrate the victory.
It was a great weekend for sports. Sure, the news staff lost. But the Jayhawks performed well on the field, we had fun playing and we enjoyed the competition.

Soccer records tumble at Kansas Tournament
By Brad Hallier
Kansan sportswriter
It was a record-breaking weekend for the Kansas soccer team at the inaugural Kansas Tournament.
Six school records fell this weekend, and the Jayhawks tied two others as they won the tournament.
Forward Lindsay Kennedy's goals Friday in the 15th and 18th minutes set the record for the two fastest goals by an individual, and the Jay hawks (5-4) rolled to a 4-1 win against

Central Oklahoma (2-5). Her goals also equaled the most in one game by an individual. She added two more yesterday against Western Illinois (1-8), and she now leads the team with four.
Midfielder Erin Hon tallied a goal 35 seconds into yesterday's game, the fastest in team history, and the Jayhawks rolled to a 5-0 win. The five goals were the most in team history, and the shutout also marked the Jayhawks' largest margin of victory.
Hon added another goal in the 18th minute to tie the individual single game mark, and Kylie Watts also headed in a goal one minute later. Those goals marked the two fastest in school history. The Jayhawks' 34 shots Sunday set a team record as well.
Hon said that the reason for the early explosion against Western Illinois was the intense pressure the Jayhawks put on the Westerwinds.
"I felt confidence in myself to beat their players," she said. "I think I plaved well."
"It was great to score those goals," she said. "We were focused from the beginning. We a total team effort, and we were all determined and ready to score."
Midfielder Natalie Hoogveld had a strong game yesterday, and she became the second Jayhawk to get two assists in a match.
"If you're going to pick a time to set records, your own tournament is the time to set those records," Kansas coach Dan Magner said.
Magner said he felt this weekend's performances were a solid prelude to the upcoming conference matches.
"These wins give us confidence," he said. "Scoring nine goals in a weekend can do nothing but help build confidence. Second, everyone on our roster was able to play this week."
That included seldom-used goalkeeper Betsy Pollard in the final minutes of yesterday's win.
"I didn't get lots of action." Pollard said. "I put in as much time as anyone else, so it gets frustrating on the sideline. But it was a good feeling to get in the game."
Referees deemed Super Target Field unplayable, and Friday's games were held at Perry Lecompton High School. Yesterday the games were held on the intramural field south of Workins Memorial Health Center.
Kansas players Kennedy, Watts, midfielder Cynthia Dahle and defender Sarah Korpli were named to the all-tournament team.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday:
Focus on domestic matters this year and put in the changes you've long desired. Learn new skills in December. By January, you should be ready to put your plan into action. In February, your loved ones acknowledge your creativity. In March, the workload is heavy, but the more you do, the luckier you get. In September, security is available at a price. In August, your teammates help you succeed. Take care of
details in September, and gain new confidence.
Aries: Todav is a 5.
Opportunity knocks today. Could be the chance for a promotion, raise or even a better job. Your experience will be useful now. You even might talk to your boss or a person you'd like to have as your boss. There's something you know how to do that this person needs. Find out what it is and offer your services.
Taurus: Todav is a 7.
Something that was not going well yesterday could get straightened out with very little trouble. The hard est part is over. You may have to change something here or tweak something there to get it perfect, but that's going to be surprisingly easy. Don't worry. Everything's going to be fine.
Gemini: Today is a 5.
Have you given much thought to your future? Have you prepared a little safety net for yourself? How about your next egg? You may not be concerned about these topics, but maybe you should be. A loved one is pushing you to make practical plans. Go along with that person's ideas today.
Cancer: Today is a 5.
You could run into a controversy today. Your partner doesn't agree with you about how things should be done. At first, there seems to be no room for compromise, but that's not the case. You're both firm in your opinions but willing to learn. Get an objective third party to act as mediator, if necessary.
Leo: Today is a 6.
Virgo: Today is a 7.
It's time to get back to work. The moon has gone into Capricorn, and that usually means you have to get busy. You might even be in the mood to do that. Hopefully, you are, because that's the agenda. Don't plan any dates until later in the week.
Get together with your sweetheart and discuss your future plans. If you don't have any future plans, make some up. If you don't have a sweetheart, go where you're likely to find one. Make it easy for love to come to you. Conditions are right for that to happen.
Libra: Today is a 6.
You're going to come up against a situation that's happened before. You didn't like it then and you might not like it now. The challenge is to handle it differently this time. Come from love instead of defending your position. Listen to the other person. You don't have to agree. All you have to do is really hear:
Scorpio: Today is a 5.
Sagittarius: Today is a 6.
You're trying to do something you're not quite sure about. Conditions aren't really supportive either.
Somebody doesn't want you to achieve what you have in mind. Look at this as an opportunity to put new skills to work. When you get to the other side of this, you can use them for something else.
Sustainability Today is a 6
It looks like a friend of yours could be having domestic problems. This doesn't involve you directly, but you can be a big help. You're able to see matters more objectively, so offer your insight. Have the couple focus on the results they'd like to produce in about two years.
Capricorn: Today is a 6.
If you're following somebody who can't make up his or her mind, you could get pretty frustrated. You're an excellent coach, and your talent is to lead others. You're put often in a position where that's necessary, so you might feel stressed, but that's OK. Everything is working the way it was designed to function.
C
Aquarius: Today is a 7
You may have made an offer in jest, but somebody's holding you to it. It should turn out OK, but you'll have to try something you're not sure will work. It's a little too soon to be sure everything's been thought through properly. You might tell that to the person who's pushing and buy yourself a little more time.
Pisces: Today is a 6.
Your friends are up against a problem they can't figure out how to solve. You're very creative and intuitive. A hunch you have could lead to the solution.
Don't give up even if things look hopeless. Don't be limited by whether or not you think something's possible.

Softball team scores 4-2 fall record
The weather cooperated this weekend and allowed the Kansas softball team to get in all six of its scheduled games.

The opponents were not nearly as obliging and forced the Jayhawks to play two tiebreakers, earning them a 4-2 fall record.

The Jayhawks sat them down in order in the top of the inning and won 3-2 when Christi Musser scored on a passed ball.
In the second game, Pittsburg State beat the Jayhawks 3-1. Pitcher Melanie DeWinter ran into trouble in the fifth, giving up a run on two singles.

Kansas played games Saturday against UMKC and Johnson County in its Jayhawk Classic tournament.
Left fielder Christi Musser and first baseman Shannon Stanwix were each two-for-three in the game, but Stanwix hit into a double play with two on and one out to end KU's last at-bat.

Kansas won 8-7 yesterday morning against Emporia State in a tie breaker.
Workman threw only her fastball and her change-up and said she probably wouldn't be able to use her curve, drop or riser until spring.
The Jayhawks scored four runs in the tiebreaker off a single, a triple and a pair of doubles, one of which was hit by left fielder Erin Garvey.

Garvey also made a catch with her back to home plate for the final out in the bottom of the inning with the score 8-7.
"I think I was overdue," Garvey said. "I just wasn't using my fundamentals."
In the weekend's final game, Kansas won 4-3 against Washburn University. Stanwix hit a single and scored the winning run in the seventh inning.
Bunge said she was pleased with her team's performance but saw some errors that needed fixing.
"Our communication needs to get better on defense," she said.
Marla Looper, pitching coach, said the pitching staff needed more consistency with their pitch placement.
Bunge said she thought that the Jayhawks would be able to work through their errors and surprise some people this spring.

K-State defeats volleyball team
'Hawks lapse in three games held Saturday
By Laura Bokenkroger
Kansan sportswriter
Consistency is the key for the Kansas volleyball team.
For the Jayhawks to be successful in the Big 12 Conference, they can't afford to have mental lauses — which
is exactly what happened Saturday night against Kansas State
After coming out strong and winning the first game, coach Ray Bechard said that the team inexplicably fell flat.
"We made that first game exciting," Bechard said. "But we had a lapse in the next couple of games."
The Jayhawks battled back from 14-9 to win 16-14 in the first game. But after that, the
momentum shifted.
Setter Laura Rohde said the Jayhawks fell out of sync. They were not passing or serving well, she said, and Kansas State took advantage, winning the next two games 15-5 and 15-3.

mentally or physically."
"Coach told us to prolong the match as long as we could," Rohde said. "We started kind of slow, but we ended up playing better in that last game."
Despite losing 15-10, they realized their potential to battle back.
Rohde said the Jayhawks were able to extract another positive from Saturday.
"No one had a good game, and it was ugly," Rohde said. "But we wung with them, and we played worse than we have all year. It's a loss, and we didn't play good, but we have to just think about what we didn't do and move on."
Kansas' next opponent is No. 3 Nebraska - the team picked to finish first in the Big 12.

eight block assists against Kansas State, said the outcome of that game depended on what the Jayhawks did on their side of the net.
"We usually play our best against them," Rohde said. "We rise to their level, but the most important thing is that we take care of our side of the net. It doesn't matter who we're playing — as long as we play our best, we can hang with anyone."

NFL CHIEFS
Kansas City escapes from Eagles with win
The Associated Press
PHILADELPHIA — The Eagles did just about everything against Kansas City except win, for their worst start in 26 years.
Philadelphia native Rich Gannon's 57-yard completion to Joe Horn in the fourth quarter set up Donnell Bennett's third touchdown run as the Chiefs escaped with a 24-21 victory against the winless Eagles yesterday.
The Eagles, who scored 15 points in their first three games, made the game close when Rodney Petee passed to Duce Staley for a 17-year touchdown with 61 seconds left. But the Chiefs (3-1) recovered the onside kick and ran out the clock.
With Elvis Grbac and Andre Rison out with injuries, their replacements — Gannon and Horn — helped drop the Eagles to 0-4 for the first time since 1972.
In the Chiefs' first visit to Philadelphia, Gannon was 17-for-25 for 262 yards as Kansas City won its ninth straight against an NFC opponent. Grbac and Rison should be healthy for a more important AFC West match-up against Seattle at Arrowhead Stadium next week.
Pete Stoyanovich's 21-yard field goal put the Chiefs within 14-10 with 11:38 left, and the Kansas City defense forced the Eagles to punt. On the first play, Gannon lofted a long pass to Horn, who beat Brian Dawkins. Bennett ran it in from the 7-yard
line, and the extra point made it 17-14 with 8:41 left.
It looked like Mark McMillian had wrapped it up when his interception of Pete with 5:18 left led to Bennett's 5-yard touchdown run that made it 24-14 with 3:06 left.
But Pete capped an 80-yard, 12-play drive with a short pass to Staley, who broke two tackles for his third touchdown — and Philadelphia's first passing touchdown of the season.
Bennett rushed for 87 yards and three touchdowns. Derrick Thomas failed to add to his league-leading total of seven sacks.
Peete, starting for injured Bobby Hoying, was 21-for-36 for 260 yards. Irving Fryar had five receptions for 57 yards. Staley ran for 73 yards and scored all three Eagles touchdowns.
Staley capped Philadelphia's second scoring drive with a 3-yard run for a 14-7 lead with 7-23 left in the third. On the drive, Peete hit Fryar for gains of 18 and 10 yards. Russell Copeland then leaped high for a 17-yard reception to the Chiefs 3-yard line.
The Eagles stopped Rashaan Shehee for a loss on third-and-one on the next possession. But Kansas City then stopped Staley for no gain on a fourth-and-one near midfield late in the third, as Philadelphia couldn't capitalize on the Chiefs' illegal procedure penalty and was forced to punt.

McGwire ends season with No.70
The Associated Press
ST. LOUIS — Mark McGwire ended his record-smashing season as mightily as he started it.
McGwire hit his 69th and 70th home runs on the season's last day, a fitting finale for a year he began with a grand slam on opening day.
"This is a season I will never, ever forget, and I hope nobody in baseball ever forgets it," McGwire said.
Big Mac, who hit five homers on the final weekend, connected against Montreal rookie Mike
churman in the third inning yesterday, then hit a home run against Carl Pavano for No. 70 in the seventh. McGwire moved four ahead of Sammy Sosa and ended nine home runs in front of Roger Maris' old record.
Big Mac hit a fastball 377 feet into the left field seat for No. 69. After stomping on home plate, he took a few slow steps, then made several salutes to the crowd.
POLICE
The sellout crowd had stood well before his at-bat got not one, but two, curtain calls.
McGwire:Now holds the home run record at 70.
Kerry Woodson, a 22-year-old body-shop worker from Maryland Heights, Mo., wound up with the ball and said he didn't know what he would do with it.
"I reached up, closed my eyes, and it landed in my glove," Woodson said. "It's a dream come true. I hope he doesn't hit any more today."
he didn't get his wish.
With two on and two outs in the seventh and the score tied at 3, he connected off Pavano, hitting a first-pitch fastball 370 feet toward the left-field wall, sending the Cardinals on to a 6-3 win against the Expos.
This time, even a curtain call from McGwire didn't quiet the 46,110 fans, who remained on their feet, cheering even as Brian Jordan took a called third strike for the third out of the inning.
McGwire, who had 10 multiple home-run games this year and 53 in his career, hit a go-ahead homer for the 24th time this season.
He opened the year with a slam on March 31 against the Dodgers' Ramon Martinez, then led the home-run race all season except when Sosa twice passed him briefly — and then for only 103 minutes total.
Sosa led for 58 minutes on Aug. 19 before McGwire went back ahead with his 48th and 49th homers in the same game at Chicago. Sosa led for 45 minutes on Friday when he hit his 66th before McGwire answered.
Yesterday was the Cardinals' final game of the season. Sosa's Cubs, who played at Houston, did not know whether their regular season would end or if there would be a playoff game for the NL wild-card spot.
Before connecting Friday, McGwire had not hit a home run in 14 at hats.
McGwire drew his NL record 162nd walk, tying Ted Williams for the second-highest total in major-league history, on a pitch that nearly beamed him in the fifth. Thurman threw the last three balls way inside and was booed after ball four.
McGwire has 180 homers during the last three seasons. In 206 career games with the Cardinals, he has 94 homers, 189 RBIs and 205 walks. At Busch Stadium, he has 51 homers and 102 RBIs in 106 games.

Sosa stalls at 66 homers as Astros snatch 4-3 win
One league ready to get started; other has one spot left to settle
The Associated Press
HOUSTON — Moments after another heartbreaking loss for the Chicago Cubs, they won a reprieve.
Two hesitant Chicago defensive plays, including one by Sammy Sosa, allowed the Houston Astros to rally for a 4-3 victory in 11 innings yesterday.
But the Cubs remained alive in the National League wild-card race because of San Francisco's 9-8 loss to Colorado. The Cubs and Giants will meet in a one

But the final score in the Colorado-Giants game was announced a minute later.
The Giants and Cubs will meet in the NL's first one-game playoff since 1980, when Houston beat Los Angeles to win the West. In 1995, Seattle defeated the Angels in a one-game playoff for the AL Wtitle.
Houston made it 3-3 in the eighth with two runs. The Astros scored the tying run when Jeff Blauer made a wild throw home from shallow left field, allowing Jeff Bagwell to score from first on Sean Berry's single.
Chicago also fumbled a game Wednesday in Milwaukee. Brant Brown dropped a routine fly ball with two out in the ninth, allowing the Brewers to score three runs for the victory.
While the drama built in the playoff race, there was

no split-screen finish in the home-run chase. Sosa remained at 66, while Mark McGwire hit two in his final game yesterday at St. Louis to finish with 70.
Sosa singled for his 158th RBI, the fourth-best in NL history. He also struck out, filed out twice and singled in the eighth, finishing 2-for-5.
The Giants lost yesterday to Colorado 8-7, and the Cubs lost to Houston 4-3 in 11 innings.
Scott Elarton (2-1) pitched two perfect innings. Rod Beck (3-4) went the final 2/2 3 innings — his longest outing of the season.
The game was merely a tuneup for the Astros, who won for the 27th time in their final at-bat. Randy Johnson will take the mound for the NL Central champions when they face San Diego Tuesday in the first round of the playoffs.
Chicago lost despite scoring three unearned runs. Bagwell tied the game in the eighth when he came around on Berry's single, which dropped among three Cubs. Blauer caught the ball on one hop but made a wild throw home.
The inning started with a double by Hidalgo, who came home on Bagwell's single.
An error by second baseman Craig Biggio helped Chicago in the fourth. After Mickey Morandini walked, Scott Servais hit a grounder, but Biggio dropped the throw for the forceout, prolonging the imning.
Sosa put Chicago on the board with an unearned run in the first. Jose Hernandez reached on an error by shortstop Ricky Gutierrez, took third on Mark Grace's double and scored on Sosa's single.
Pitcher Terry Mulhollan,
a 267 hitter, then lined a two-
run double just beyond the

Of course, No. 20 Washington would argue that it's not fair no matter where you play Nebraska.
The 'Huskers, playing their finest game to date under Frank Solich, dismantled the Huskies 55-7 as DeAngelo Evans and Bobby Newcombe returned from injuries and ran for three touchdowns apiece.
"It was kind of a fairy-tale thing," said Evans.

Louisiana. But Michael Bishop got on track, threw for 441 yards, four touchdowns and smashed the school record with 475 yards of total offense. Along the way, he teamed up with Aaron Lockett on a school-record 97-yard touchdown play in a game 2-7 rout.

Stress often drinking excuse
Harvard study finds partying, binge drinking are problem for two of five college students
Kanson staff writers
By Sue Franke and Angela Johnson
Mid-term exams, relationships and grades may lead some students to relieve stress by having more than a few drinks.
Holly Rowland, Overland Park senior, said she thought excessive drinking happened when people were trying to escape from their problems but the line between social drinking and binge drinking was a blurry one.
"You don't go up to someone at a party and say, 'Are you drinking six in a row to escape your problems?' " she said.
According to a 1997 study recently released by the Harvard School of Public Health, two of five college students are binge
drinkers. It defines binge drinking as five drinks in a row for men and four drinks in a row for women. Students were asked to count drinks consumed during the two weeks before they completed the study's self-administered questionnaire.
Alcohol Agenda
Ryan Russ, Nevada, Mo., freshman, said he had taken friends to the hospital because of binge drinking.
"At a party last summer, one of my friends started chugging rum," Russ said. "I had to drive her to the hospital, and she had her stomach pumped."
The study also was completed in 1993. The study found that one third more drinkers "drank to get drunk" in 1997 compared to 1993.
Clint Sewell, Caney junior, has his own measure for excessive drinking.
"It becomes a problem when all the friends you have left are the ones you drink with," he said.
According to the survey, the biggest offenders of binge drinking are fraternity and sorority members. Four out of five people living in greek houses are binge drinkers.
Matt Grenier, Atchison freshman and Phi Delta Theta pledge, said that although the figure was accurate, fraternity members did not pressure one another to binge drink, is often thought.

Journalism alumnus breaks into web server
"The first few parties we had, someone would get up and announce, 'You don't have to drink if you don't want to.' Now it's just understood," Greiner said.
Randall Rock, chief of staff at Watkins Memorial Health Center, said if someone was drinking for an effect and did not find that effect, then that person had moved from social to problem drinking.
He defined the warning signals of problem drinking as missing class or work, relationship problems and DWI's. He said students also were in trouble if their drinking required medical attention or if they had placed themselves and others at physical and sexual risk.
"They think having eight to 10 drinks is the norm, and it is not," said April Marvin, director of the Kansas Drunk Driving Prevention Project for DCCA, a Lawrence educational and counseling center.
Frequent binge drinkers were eight or more times more likely to miss class and fall behind in their school work, according to the Harvard study.
Many students have a misconception about how much is too much.
Janine Cednick, Hoffman Estates, Ill., sophomore, said she learned about the consequences of binge drinking the hard way.
She said in her first year at the University, she was exposed to drinking for the first time and fell into the
Jon Brewer, a December 1997 graduate from the school of journalism, said he replaced the journalism school web page with a page detailing his frustrations with the school's web site.
Mike Cuenca, assistant professor of journalism, said a student first called the web site to his attention about a week ago. Cuenca went to the web site and attempted to get onto the web server, but the password had been changed.
See BINGE on page 5A
Brewer, who said he planned to work with Cuenca last year on redesigning the page, said he knew the password to the server. After breaking into the server, he said he added his changes and changed the password.
Cuenca said he notified James Gentry, dean of journalism, who contacted Gary Hawke, the general manager of the integrated media laboratory.
Hawke said he went to the Computer Center Sept. 21 and had the password changed again.

Off-campus housing numbers increase
Data not worrying residence halls, Greek organizations
By Sarah Hale Kansan staff writer
The student housing report released in conjunction with last week's enrollment numbers reiterated a growing trend of KU students living off campus.
Where students live
These numbers do not include students on study abroad. There are 23,342 students enrolled at the University.
Residence Halls: 13.53%
Family Student Apartments: 1.09%
Single Student Apartments: 3.10%
Scholarship Halls: 1.86%
Sororities: 4.15%
Fraternities: 5.08%
Naismith Hall: 2.04%
Parent's homes: 3.22%
Rooms or apartments: 58.89%
Commuters: 7.04%
In fall 1987,48.2 percent of students lived off campus in apartments or houses. This year, that number has increased to 58.9 percent.
The 13,746 students living off campus is up from last year's 13.235 students.
"I lived in the dorms the past two years, but decided to move out this semester," said Chris Dundon, St. Louis junior. "It's great for the freedom and the space, but I could do without having to cook or pay the bills."
Total Lawrence campus enrollment in the residence halls is 13.5 percent, down by nearly 1,400 students and 5 percent since 1987.
Despite Dundon and other KU students moving out of the residence halls, only about 200 fewer students live in the halls.
Kristi Elliott / KANSAN
Although the number of students has decreased, the occupancy of the residence halls is at 97 percent.
Fred McElhenie, associate director at the department of student housing, said part of the decrease was because of residence hall renovations. Before renovations, Templin Hall could hold 432 students, and now it only can house 270.
"The general trend has been
toward reducing the amount of space and increasing the attractiveness in appearance of the halls." McElhenejie said.
McElhenie said the department of student housing was not alarmed by the small decrease since last year.
"We're in good shape generally," he said. "I don't see this as

University faculty blames decline on economic factors
Enrollment of international graduate students continues fall
By Jason Pearce
Kansan staff writer
International and graduate student enrollment continued its downward trend this fall at the University of Kansas, and faculty say the economy is to blame.
According to official University enrollment figures for Fall 1998, the number of international students dropped to its lowest level in 15 years, with 1.526 students attending.
This was a 5 percent drop from last year when
1,607 international students studied at the University. In 1993, 2,181 international students attended, which was the largest number in the last 15 years.
20th day NUMBERS
Joe Potts, director of international student services, said a reason for the decline was that many undergraduate and graduate students from Asia had a difficult time paying for American universities because of the struggling economy.
"One of the reasons the financial crisis has affected that group of students is because many of them come from middle-class families," Potts said.
He said many Asian middle-class families — many of whom were able to send their children to college in the United States for the first time only this decade — were affected by the struggling economy the most.
"So now the reverse is happening. Middle-class families don't have the resources to pay out-of-state tuition right now." Potts said.
Potts also said many Asian students who remained at the University were forced to take fewer class hours because of linear tuition.
Graduate student enrollment also declined this fall by 2.7 percent to 5,928 students. Last fall, 6,087 graduate students attended the University, and in 1983 that number was 6,692, an overall decline of 11.4 percent.
Ruth Hillers, co-director of the college graduate administration, said much of this decline also could be attributed to the Asian economic crisis because much of the decline was in the number of international graduate students.
Hillers said other factors included the IRS cancellation of graduate teaching benefits a few years ago and a strong economy in the United States.

International student enrollment by year
Kristi Elliott / KANSAN
Numbers of both international and graduate students have declined in the past five years, both because of the economy. Asian students are facing a poor economy which means they cannot afford out-of-state tuition. American students considering graduate school are facing a good economy, which means a bachelor's degree is all they need to find a good job.
"I think anytime our economy is good, students are less likely to come back for a graduate degree," she said.
Carl Strikwerda, associate dean for liberal arts administration, said another reason for the decline in international students was that universities in other countries competed for the same students.
"KU has been aware of these changes and has been working harder to recruit students, Strikwerda said. "We hope the trend will reverse in the next year or two."
Kathleen McCluskey-Fawcett, associate provost, said faculty members recently formed the International Recruitment Advisory Committee to tackle the enrollment declines.
McCluskey-Fawcett said some faculty members either had completed or planned recruitment trips to Central and South America.
"We are trying to focus our recruitment efforts in countries where the economy is still strong," she said. "We would hate to have a student come here and then have to leave for economic reasons."
Potts said the committee comprised of faculty from many parts of the University including the School of Business, the School of Engineering and the department of admissions.

Stauffer-Flint fire alarm sounds twice last night
The Lawrence Fire Department and KU Office of Public Safety responded to a fire alarm at Stauffer-Flint Hall at 9:36 p.m. last night.
KU police officers arrived at the building at 9:41 p.m., Sgt. Gayle Beece said.
The alarm went off because of dust that activated the detector, said Captain Nathan Stover, who responded to the alarm.
Jamie Holman, Bonner Springs senior,
made the phone call to report the alarm.
"I called 911. They had no recollection of anything I was saying. They told me to call another number on campus." Holman said
Holman said she then called the KU Office of Public Safety, and the woman she spoke to was not aware of the alarm.
Reece said the building's fire alarm was not connected to the office's alarm console, therefore they did not find out the alarm went off until after the phone call from Holman
Some buildings on campus are connected to the console and some are not. Reece said.
A second fire alarm went off at 10:45 p.m.
— By Augustus Anthony Piazza
Firefighters said dust also was the cause of the second alarm.
The 1998-99 camp telephone directory is available for students.
New KU directories arrive at bookstores, residences 1998.99 campus telephone
The phone books are at the Kansas Union Bookstore for $1.50 with a KUID, and $3 without. They also are at the Jayhawk Bookstore, 1420 Crescent Road, for $2.25.
Students who live on campus receive their phone books for free. The directories are delivered to the residence halls and to Jayhawker Towers.
Ola Faucher, associate director of human resources, said the directories had not been available until the end of this month because of the contract with the vendor.
"We have a restricted time period with their schedule," Faucher said. "They make campus phone books for several other universities."
Faucher also said that to make the directories as accurate as possible, the University had to wait until enrollment for the academic school year was finished.
Stacey Dawson, secretary for University Relations, said that if students' numbers or addresses were incorrect, they could go to the University Registrar in Strong Hall with their corrections.
The correct address would be on file for mailing lists, and the correct number would be on record for the operator. Dawson said.

Nigerian man pleads guilty to murder of estranged wife
A Nigerian man pleaded guilty to second degree murder yesterday in Douglas County District Court.
Samuel Muttwafeng, accompanied by Topeka attorney Ron Evans, pleaded guilty to the unintentional second decree murder of his estranged wife.
Cindy Muttwang was murdered in her Lecompton home in January.
Mutwfung originally had been charged with intentional, second deed murder.
District Attorney Christine Tonkovich said the change in the charge came as part of a plea bargain.
Tonkovich said there have been many continuances in the case and the eight-month ordeal was hard on the victim's family.
Unintentional second degree murder carries a minimum penalty of 136 months in prison, but Tonkovich said her office would request that he receive only 120 months, or 10 years.
Had he pleaded guilty to intentional second degree murder Mutfwang would have had to wait 10 years before he would have been eligible for parole, Tonkovich said.
The difference between intentional and unintentional second degree murder is that the prosecution must prove premediation in intentional second degree murder.
Mutfwang was arrested on Jan. 30 and since then he has been in Douglas County Jail. He will be sentenced Oct. 30.

Baldwin man victimized by $21,000 in forgeries
A 68-year-old Baldwin man was the victim of more than 40 forgeries spread out during the last three years, Lawrence police said.
Someone removed more than $21,000 from his account using his KU Credit Union account number since April of 1995.
"The suspect appears to be a family member," Lawrence police Sgt. George Wheeler said.
Wheeler said the suspect had not been interviewed, and it was possible that the suspect had power of attorney to withdraw the money.
So far, 41 separate withdrawals were reported to police but police say there might have been more.
As of yesterday, the total loss was $21,419.

Patrol officials determined the agent acted in self-defense when he shot 23-year-old Oscar Abel Cordoba Velez on Saturday, but Mexican authorities said several witnesses disputed the patrol's account.
Cordoba Velez was among three suspected illegal immigrants spotted on the United States side of the border, which is guarded by a 10-foot-high steel fence. The trio tried to flee to Mexico with two immigration agents in pursuit, agency spokesman Mario Villarreal said.
An agent grabbed one of the men and Cordoba Velez, who was apparently trying to aid his friend. Villareal said Cordaba came at the agent with a rock.
After refusing to obey and let go of the rock, the man was shot once, Villarreal said.
The Mexican Consulate in San Diego, however, said six witnesses reported that Cordoba Velez was not carrying a rock or any weapon when he ran toward the agent to distract him. They said the agent shot twice.

anything to be concerned about."
The number of occupants in fraternity and sorority houses also has decreased in the last five years. Although the percentage difference since 1992 is less than 1 percent, 525 fewer students live in fraternities and sororites.
Wes Simons, assistant director of greek programs, said part of the decrease in students living in the sorority houses was because of a decrease in chapters at the University. He also said that some of the fraternities lost members because of membership reviews.
National offices perform membership reviews before releasing members who are not living up to the chapter standards.
He said the greek offices were not concerned about the decrease.
"All the sorority house are full," he said.
"They can't get anybody else in there."
Some sorority and fraternity members chose to remain active in their chapters but decided to move out.
Jamie Adden, Rockford, Ill. junior and member of Sigma Kappa sorority, said she chose to move out of her chapter house this year and into an apartment. Although she enjoys the extra space, she pointed out that there were down sides for everyone who was used to living with a lot of people.
"It can be kind of lonely if my roommate is gone," Adden said. "Now, I have to call to talk to people instead of just popping into rooms down the hall."

Facility to provide health for the aging
New building at Med Center first of its kind in Midwest
CICILLUM

Kansan staff writer

A new $8 million Health in Aging Facility that will improve geriatric health care and student learning opportunities at the University of Kansas Medical Center will be built starting in November.
The Health in Aging Facility, which will focus on the total health of older adults, is a division of the Med Center's Center on Aging. It will integrate clinical and educational services for patients, as well as provide a place for students to learn and research principles of geriatric health.
The center and new facility will be headed by Stephanie Studenski, who helped the University obtain funding for the project. The facility is scheduled to open in February 2000.
Studenski said the facility would be more accessible and less confusing to the elderly because it would provide a large number of services.
Chancellor Robert Roberts boost the University's already ton-not rep

The federal government provided $4 million for the center, while the state provided $4 million through the Med Center.
At the groundbreaking for the facility earlier this month, Studenski and Hemenway were joined by Gov. Bill Graves and former U.S. Sen. Nancy Kassebaum Baker, R-Kan.
Studenski said the time and place was right for Kansas to be opening a the facility. She said the Kansas

"The need in Kansas is clear," Studenski said.
The facility will be the only one of its kind in the Midwest, measuring 52,280 square feet. It will house a wide range of services from a gymnasium to telecommunication and televideo equipment for remote location medical assessment.

Jozef Zelenak, a geriatric medicine fellow, said he was interested in working at the new facility.
"With the new facility, our center on aging is going to be one of the prominent facilities in the country," he said.
The facility funding follows a number of other grants secured by Studenski and the Center on Aging. Another notable grant received was the $7.6 million Pepper Center Grant from the National Institutes of Health, Studenski said that grant put the University in the same class as Yale and Harvard.
"We have established oursels as leaders and innovators in aging. A lot of people didn't think Kansas could do this," Studenski said.
Hurricane weakens as storm hits Gulf Coast
The Associated Press
PASCAGOULA, Miss. — Hurricane Georges plowed into the Gulf Coast yesterday and then parked there, pouring rain at an inch-an-hour pace before weakening to a tropical storm that could have a long and ruinous stay.
Winds dropped to 45 mph last night, 30 mph below hurricane strength and down from a high of 110. New Orleans was spared the catastrophic direct hit that many in the Big Easy had feared.
But that was little comfort to the thousands who huddled in shelters from Florida to Louisiana and were expected to remain there for days. Outside, trees ripped from the ground, windows sucked from their frames, floods roaring down roads.
"In some areas, there's water to rooftops and 4 to 5 feet of water in many other homes. I've never seen anything like it in more than 50 years," said Jackson County administrator George Touart, after a tour of Pascagoula.
Forecasters said up to 30 inches could fall by the time the storm clears out sometime in the middle of the week. Flash flood watches were issued for much of Mississippi and Alabama through today. Parts of Florida also under flood watches.
Nearly 10 inches of rain fell in Mobile, Ala., in a 24-hour period ending yesterday evening. Since Saturday, Munson, Fla., was deluged with 25 inches of rain; Bay Minette, Ala., 14.5 inches and Leakesville, Miss., 8.3 inches.
In the Florida Panhandle, Guardsmen had to rescue about 200 people from their flooded homes.

Students deserve recognition for peacefully harboring free speech
The vast majority of KU students should be commended for their candor in dealing with a potentially volatile situation last week.
With the exception of two incidents, students respected the Center for Bioethical Reform's First Amendment rights to voice their opinion and countered by legally voicing their own.
The graphic displays produced more questions than answers, but aside from the isolated automotive and assault-battery protests, those questions were met with earnest discussion.
Is abortion right? Do graphic photographs present a reasonable argument in and of themselves? Were they offensive to minorities and Jews? Where does the First Amendment stop and "too offensive" begin? Is abortion genocide?
For the most, part KU students handled a heated issue with grace and tolerance.
"Yes" or "no" answers to any of these questions could be, have been and should continue to be debated.
The Black Student Union led the way by providing an official forum at last Tuesday's meeting. Black Student Union Vice President Conway Ekpo said it was attended by students from
Hillel, HALO, First Nation, ProChoice and Students Against Racism. He said much of the discussion was "heated," "touchy," "necessary" and "conducive to understanding"—but never violent. It has been a long time since KU students have had to witness violence caused by social issues, but this traditionally liberal University has had its share.
What may be the most divisive issue of our time fell upon the KU campus, catching it almost completely off guard. The University community's tolerance, open-mindedness and respect for the Constitution were tested, and it passed.

KU administration dealt well with problematic basketball courts
The University of Kansas administration should be commended for listening to the concerns of students and keeping basketball courts available at Templein and Oliver Halls.
The original plans made by the University to construct a parking lot at Oliver and a visitor's center at Templin did not include significant plans to replace the courts that they would destroy. The visitor's center is something that the University has needed for some time. Building it was an immediate priority. The Oliver parking lot was in a similar situation.
Administrators responsible for organizing the new developments did not fully consider what would become of the basketball courts. Plans were announced that the basketball courts were to be razed to make room for the new building
New courts will be built before the old courts are removed.
and lot, students rallied and presented a petition to the administration stating their disapproval. The petition was signed by more than 500 students.
Primarily, the signers were from Oliver and the other residence halls. However, students from all areas of campus signed on. The students should be praised for their efforts.
tries to work with students whenever it is possible. In most of the projects, he asks architecture students for proposals. Many of his building projects have been influenced by students' ideas. His willingness to work with students' needs is an example of how the student-administration relationship should function.
After administrators had received the petition, they began to find ways to incorporate the students' wishes into the current plans. Warren Corman, University architect, said he always
The current plan concerning the Templin basketball courts is to leave the old courts in place. Building new ones before the old ones are removed is a top priority. At Oliver, one of the original courts has been left standing. It will remain so until a new set of courts, similar to those removed for the parking lot, are built in its place. The chain of events involving the basketball courts at Templin and Oliver shows how KU should work.

Perspective
Deciding who you are is one of life's complexities
Do you know who you are?
Don't give the obvious answer: yes and then your name. The question still stands.
Do you know who you are?
Nick
Bartkoski
opinion@kanan.com
in today's world, I can't see how you could possibly know who you are. First, we're born. Then we spend the next five years being told who we are. I always felt like I was raised in a pretty liberal household. My dad never felt the urge to force me to play catch, nor did he ever tell me that it was my job to become a quarterback and make the family
proud. Still, there are some gender-identity issues that will never be completely erased. For example, no one ever told me that men don't cry, but I know that we don't — that it's not allowed. These are issues that don't need to be said, but they're put into the stew that ultimately is who we are.
So after we've spent about five years being told who we are, we're shuttled off to kindergarten. And then we spend the next 13 years in school learning and relearning useless things that everyone should know. We get summers off, but still we're put on a breakneck pace to "mature" without really being given time to rationalize our lives. Furthermore, it's interesting that the most important question, "why?", is one that's never addressed in this 13-year period.
The other thing that happens to us during this 13-year binge of learning is social interaction. Social interaction is evil. You don't learn you're fat from your parents or relatives, and even if you do, it's usually said in a tasteful manner. Another thing to consider is that what your family will call "unique" is what others will call "different" and sometimes even "weird." It's good to be unique, but no one wants to be different. It's even worse to be weird. We aren't born with these identities, and they probably should not be who we are. Unfortunately, they are, because someone thinks it's important that we learn to interact with society.
So now we're adults, but we still haven't
Next thing you know, you're out in the real world, trying to find your own way. Maybe you have a family, maybe it's you and your cats. What's important is that you show up for your job, make your money, stash it away in an IRA and do little more than wait to die. Now, I don't want to seem overly morbid; hopefully, you get to have a little fun along the way. But the only major thing left to do is draw your final breath.
figured out who we are. When do we have time to?
Now that we're adults, we have two options; college or the real world. At college you get to design what you're learning, but it's still a very structured affair. There's no time to sit and figure out how we got here or where we're going. It's more important that we write some paper or read some book.
Let's pretend that somehow you do know who you are. That may not even matter because the other thing we do to keep our identities a secret is lie to ourselves. Sometimes we can lie more successfully to ourselves than we can to other people. Things that don't mesh with our world view we pretend don't exist. Things that don't agree with the personal biography we write for ourselves we chuck. Even when we've achieved truth, we ignore it.
Do you know who you are?
Life has no need for you to know who you are. There's just no time to figure it out. Besides, you're a much more valuable member of society if you don't know who you are since if you're still asking yourself how you can get around to questioning authority.
Do you know who you are?
I'm Nick Bartkoski. I'm an average guy in just about every way that counts. I've lost 20 pounds lately. I'm looking good. I'm a damn sexy guy. But when I was in fourth grade, people told me I was fat, and when I was in high school, I got rejected once.
There are two ways to deal with falling off a horse: Get back on immediately or shoot the horse, pretend it never existed and go inside to eat some Cheetos. Could you please pass the Cheetos?
So now, do you know who YOU are?

State Fair visit offers a learning experience
If an alien species from a distant planet.
Everything I ever needed to know about Kansas I learned at the State Fair.
If an alien species from or even Missouri, were to visit Kansas with the intention of understanding our fair state, there certainly would be no greater expression of all things Kansas than the "Great Kansas Get-Together." Yes sir, I'm talking about the "Party on the Prairie" that is the Kansas State Fair.

I had the chance to go to last week. Although I am a Hutchinson native (don't laugh, everyone
comes from somewhere), I have not attended the State Fair in more than a decade. I spent five days in Hutchinson working at a booth in the Industrial Building, walking, looking and trying to recapture my childhood. Here is a sampling of what I learned.
1) Kansans are not "cool." It may seem to be a blinding flash of the obvious, but it's true.
I watched more than 50,000 people from all across the state walk by not a "cool" one among them.
z) Most Kansans do not care whether they are cool. Any group of people that could wear T-shirts emblazoned with WWF personalities, button-down shirts with the sleeves cut off or anything with a "Power Cat" on it is obviously not attempting to be cool.
3) The highest value crop in Douglas County is soybeans. 46,000 acres were planted in 1997, yielding a farm value of $11,373,600.
4) A life size cow made completely from butter takes about 48 hours to sculpt.
5) All "games of skill" can be won if you consider spending two dollars to win a 40-cent stuffed snake a win.
6) Strawberry ice cream, especially when it's melting down your hands, can turn anyone into a kid again.
7) Lynyrd Skynyrd is named after a physical education teacher that tried to make the boys cut their hair.
9) Outrageous concession prices are not necessary to have a good time. For example, a Pronto Pup (it's a corn dog, and should not be referred to as a "Porno Pop" as my girlfriend did) is two bucks. Beer in the Grandstand is $2.50. A large root beer — without ice because it's chilled before serving — is a buck and a half. Compare those prices to the last KU or Chiefs football game you attended. Plus, parking is free.
(Lynnyd Skynyrd is not from Kansas, but they did play a show at the Grand Stand.)
8) There were two "pro-life" boots: Kansans for Life and Birthright. Only one "pro-choice" booth: Planned Parenthood. I am still looking for some deeper meaning in that but have not found it yet.
10) Campaign literature for the only Democrat who? holding a statewide office does not use the word "Democrat" anywhere on it.
11) People making no attempt to be "cool" probably really are "cool" after all. Except the ones wearing purple.
12) Racing pigs are running so fast because they get an Oreo cookie if they win.
13) A state trooper singing ballet not even have the excuse of being drunk, but everyone in the audience will clap for him anyway.
14) Llamas spit because they are scared.
15) Kansas has a growing wine industry.
There are six wineries, and three more are expected to open in the next two years.
Everyone who missed the fair is in luck. It will be back next September.
It is a pilgrimage every Kansan should make at least once in their life. Where else can you ride The Old Mill (in operation since 1916), check out the new John Deere and Case products, see a pig race, watch demonstrations of every kitchen gadget imaginable, win a stuffed animal (maybe) and perhaps take a barn tour and find out from where groceries really come?

Conway Ekpo's column did not run in full in Thursday's paper. The last paragraph should have read: The way I see it, there is a choice to be made, but it has nothing to do with the 25-year-old Supreme Court case concerning abortion. This choice is one that we must all make, whether you're Black, white, Jewish, pro-choice, anti-abortion, it doesn't matter. The protests were here, and the damage has been done, but we all have the choice of whether we are going to let this organization affect and manipulate our emotions, our actions, and our lives with its shady tactics. The choice is yours.

Binge drinking hurts students
Continued from page 1A
habit of going to bars and parties with her friends, until one sobering evening.
Cednick said she and her friends went to a party last January and drank a lot.
"The next day I threw up from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m." she said.
Cednick said that was when she realized she wanted to have a good time without drinking excessively.
"I didn't want to sit over a garbage can because of drinking," she said.
One liquor store employee said students drank to relieve the pressures of studying.
"After studying all week, students want to go out and have a
good time," said Greg Allison. Shawnee senior and Myers Retail Liquor employee.
The Harvard survey also noted that nearly 60 percent of the students who were not binge drinkers and who lived on campus, experienced at least one second-hand effect of binge drinking.
Dara Friedman, Overland Park senior, said she had seen several fights break out at parties and bars.
"A couple times, people have got hurt," Friedman said. "The worst I saw was when someone got kicked in the face and had to be taken to the hospital."
In addition to grades, studying and relationships slipping because of problem drinking, the damage done to the body can range from
temporary to permanent.
For those who have overindulged and end up with a hangover the next day, Rock said the best cure is hydration and time.
He said if someone frequently binged on alcohol, he or she was starting on a course to chronic liver problems.
"Alcohol is a toxin to the liver and even a single episode of drinking can elevate enzymes in the liver," he said. "Then if you should add Tylenol, for example, it elevates the enzymes even more."
Rock said if someone consumed alcohol to a dangerous level, he or she should go to the local hospital. He said that kind of extreme episode could lead to respiratory distress, heart failure and even death.
Officers use discretion enforcing law
Zero-tolerance policy unreal expectation
Minors who violate city and state alcohol laws face fines, jail time or imprisonment in a state penitentiary, but the whole process is discretionary.
Kansas has a zero-tolerance policy toward minors but Lawrence police Sgt. George Wheeler said the policy was probably an unreal expectation
Alcohol Agenda
"Zero tolerance is a problem because it would entail every officer arresting everybody they see and charging everyone they arrest with everything they possibly could," he said. "I don't know if we're really doing this."
"The spirit of the law is to apply it in a fair and practical manner," he said.
Wheeler said officers commonly enforce the spirit of the law.
There are basically two types of alcohol laws enforced in Lawrence: city ordinances and state laws.
Lawrence police said city ordi.
nances primarily regulated cereal malt beverages, drinks with 3.2 percent or less alcohol.
The three main city ordinances are operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of alcohol, minor in possession of a cereal malt beverage and public consumption of a cereal malt beverage.
All are punishable by up to one year in jail, a fine or both.
Wheeler said judges used a sliding scale to dole out punishment.
State laws deal with beverages containing more than 3.2 percent alcohol.
Possession of alcohol by a minor, purchase of alcohol by a minor, sale of alcohol to a minor and knowingly or unknowingly allowing consumption of alcohol by a minor are the most common state alcohol laws.
"If you're arrested for one of those violations, one of two things will happen," Wheeler said. "You could be given a notice to appear in court or arrested and booked into jail."
Another state law, driving while intoxicated, is nearly identical to the city ordinance of operating a motor vehicle under the influence of alcohol. Jail time and fines for a OUI or a DWI are the same.
Police said the difference between the two charges depended on whether the driver had broken another state law.
Someone pulled over for an OUI might be charged with DWI, if it
ORDINANCES AND LAWS
The main city ordinances are punishable by up to one year in jail and a monetary fine set at the municipal court judge's discretion.
Minor in possession of cereal molt beverage
- Public consumption of a cereal malt beverage
- Operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of alcohol
- The main state laws are punishable by incarceration in a state prison and a monetary fine set at the district court judge's discretion.
- Possession of alcohol by a minor
- Purchase of alcohol by a minor
- Sale of alcohol to a minor
Allowing consumption of alcohol by a minor
example, they were in possession of cocaine.
In that case, both state charges would be used to keep the incident in the district. not the municipal, court system.
Wheeler said this was done to cut down on the paper work and to keep the person from having to appear in both courts.
Susan Holzman, Lawrence junior, said discretion should be used in prosecuting alcohol offenders.
"I guess it could depend on if they are trouble or not," she said.

Lawrence poets gather,share their work
Harvest of Arts brings eclectic crowd to Terra Nova Hall
Kansan staff writer
By Augustus Anthony Piazza Konson staff writer
Some of Lawrence's most eclectic intellectuals gathered to share their poetry last night.
Fifty people attended the seventh annual Harvest of Arts Poetry Reading from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. at Terra Nova Hall, 720 I 2 Massachusetts St.

Twelve poets, ranging from people from the classics department at the University of Kansas to waiters at downtown restaurants, read their work.
"I'm here to see Steve Lacoss (Lawrence junior)." Jose Ballesteros, Lawrence graduate student said. "He's a good friend of mine, and I've been following his work for a few years."
Ballesteros said Lacoss's work could be compared to an artist who painted layer after layer until the image finally could be deciphered when the painting was completed.
Ken Irby, English professor, read two untitled poems. One of those poems was published in the latest issue of the magazine First Intensity.
"I have a hard time with titles," Irhy said.
Irby was the first of 12 poets who read their work.
"We try to have 12 to 20 really good poets with some new work," said Carryn Mirriam-Goldberg, organizer of the poetry reading. "This year I asked less than 20 people because when we have 20 people read it gets blurry."
Mirriam-Goldberg said she asked people who believed that poetry was the center of their life.
Karen Ohnesorge, support services coordinator for KU supportive education services, read a poem she called The Wedding Tree.
"I really like being part of the community once in a while," Ohnesorge said. "Usually I don't share poetry with the folks that often."
Wayne Propst, master of ceremonies,
said he did not think the reading did anything to bring the community together.
"It doesn't bring the community closer together because the few people who are here are barely interested in what's going on."
Prostp said most of the people were there only because they had husbands, wives or friends who were reading.
Harvest of Arts continues at 7 tonight with the seventh annual Singer Songwriter's Showcase in Liberty Hall, 642 Massachusetts St.
Historic appearance not destroyed, commission says
By Chris Fickett
Kansan staff writer
Although the Historic Resources Commission said a Lawrence Arts Center renovation and addition project would not destroy the Carnegie Library, some Lawrence residents disagree.
The commission met Thursday to determine whether a $5.6 million arts center renovation project would encroach upon the historic surroundings of Old West Lawrence, the Lucy Hobbs Taylor residence, 809 Vermont St., and the Carnegie Library building, Ninth and Vermont streets.
The arts center now is housed in the Carnegie building. The commission decided by a 5-2 vote that renovations to the building would not destroy its historic value but voted unanimously that 17,000 square feet of additions would diminish its historic appearance.
The additions include an education wing, a performance space and a gathering space.
Ron Schneider, attorney for the Friends of the Carnegie Library, said his clients were disappointed with the decision that renovations to the Carnegie Library would not encroach upon or damage the building.
The renovation plan includes, among other structural changes, a section of the west basement wall to be removed to create a door between the gathering space and the Carnegie building.
"It's our position that not only the environs of the Carnegie are destroyed, but both the environs of Old West Lawrence and the Lucy Hobbs Taylor home would be destroyed as well." he said.
Schneider said that if the Historic Resources Commission's recommendations were approved by the state historic preservation officer, the Lawrence City Commission would have to prove that there were no other feasible sites for the arts center in order to continue with the project.
Schneider said it would be difficult for the city commission to prove that there were no alternative sites for an addition to the arts center.
"It's a heavy burden." he said.
Joel O'Brien, president of the Lawrence Preservation Alliance, said the six houses scheduled to be destroyed by the arts center addition would 'take away a buffer zone between the Old West Lawrence residential area and downtown Lawrence.
"The Carnegie Library has traditionally served as a transition between the residential area and downtown," he said.

David Dumfield of Glenn Livinging Penzer Artects, which designed the project, said he thought the commission's decision on the environs issue was of a lesser significance.
He said his main concern was whether the commission would find that the renovations encroached upon or destroyed the historic value of the building.
He said he expected the state historical preservation officer to approve the Historic Resource Commission's recommendations and the city commission to approve the project.
Latino fraternity may colonize at University
By Sarah Hale Kansan staff writer
After at least two years of planning, a Latino fraternity finally may colonize at the University of Kansas.
A representative from the national headquarters of Sigma Lambda Beta came to the University last weekend to talk with interested Latino men.
Ian Batista told the men that because they aroused, had met all necessary requirements, the chapter could become colonized as soon as an application was turned in and accepted. Assuming the application is accepted, the group would become official six months later.
Robert Page, director of the National Pan-Hellenic Council, said the council would sponsor the Latino men's fraternity just as it does with the Latina women's sorority.
Both chapters will be associate members of the council, which traditionally handles African-American groups.
"We've been talking about this for awhile," Page said. "But this group of men is serious about it, and now we're on our way to colonize the chapter."
Page said there were about 12 to 15 men, mostly freshmen, who were interested in the chapter.
Antonio Mesa, Kansas City, Kan., freshman and the group's vice president, said the group hoped to become official by spring.
Mesa and Alexander Morales, Kansas City, Kan., sophomore and group president, are going to the United States Hispanic Leadership Conference in Chicago next weekend and plan to take a colonization application.
Meanwhile, the men must offer two fund raisers and two cultural events to meet the national Sigma Lambda Beta requirements.
Mesa said they also were working on general information packets to submit to the University and to the national office. The packets will include the number of men involved, their grade point averages and biographical information.
Mesa said the chapter would be based on scholar ship, education and cultural unity.
"We want to change the way that people view Hispanics," he said.
Sigma Lambda Gamma, the Latina women's sorority, began at the University in 1997. Sigma Lambda Gamma is the sister chapter to Sigma Lambda Beta.
SIGMA LAMBDA BETA
A new Latin men's fraternity is applying for colonization at the University of Kansas.
The chapter most likely will become official by next spring.
- If you are a Latino male student and would like to become involved in the organization, contact Robert Page, director of the National Pan-Hellenic Council, at 864-5416.

Commentary Game-free restaurants a bad show
I was mad Saturday night.
My team had just lost a softball game, and I was planning to eat with my teammates.
I was planning to eat With my teammates. Unfortunately the Kansas football game in Birmingham, Ala., was not broadcast on television, but I was looking forward to the voices of Max Falkenstein and Bob Davis as they called the game on the radio.
But Old Chicago, the fine dining estab.
lishment we had chosen for dinner, was not playing the game.
They had a number of different football games on their televisions, but Craig Miller, bar manager, told me they did not have a radio receiver and could not pipe the game through their audio system.
I was astounded. Old Chicago is one of three Big Blue Weekend sponsors. Along with
Matt Friedrichs

the Holiday Inn and Johnny's Tavern, it sponsors pregame tailgate parties and shuttle buses to the stadium.
le game, so I left
How could a big booster of the Kansas football team on home weekends not support the Jayhawks on the road?
I fumed as I sat in the drive through at McDonald's.
My dinner plans had been ruined, and Max and Bob were describing a less than stellar performance by the Javahawks.
At home I stomped angry through my apartment, listening to a lackduster football game.
I called the other Big Blue weekend sponsors.
Sure, Johnny's had the game on the radio.
No. Jay's Sports Bar at the Holidome was not playing the game.
Henry T's—yes!
I called several bars and restaurants that show games.
Applebee's, Kaspars, Molly McGee's, Bleachers and Sports Page Pewtery — no KU game.
My disappointment in Lawrence support of the Jayhawks grew in proportion to my excitement about the team's overtime heroics.
Touchdown. Defensive stand. Field goal. Touchdown and two point conversion for the win!
How many Jayhawk fans out on the town actually heard the thrilling overtime calls?
"They consider themselves KU football supporters." she said.
Jennifer Carter, marketing director for the Lawrence Convention and Visitor Bureau, told me yesterday that Big Blue Weekend businesses provided a tailgate party and a shuttle bus to the game.
Rick Renfro, part owner of Johnny's, said 99 percent of his customers had an interest in the game.
"We always have it on." Renfo said.
His business comes before loyalty at other
businesses.
"We always have it on," Renfro said.
Miller of Old Chicago said the restaurant supported the weekends as an investment in the community.
Customers who stop for the tailgate or the shuttle bus possibly will return to eat there some other time. And while no one has to eat there or buy anything beyond the $2 ticket for the shuttle bus, Old Chicago is in it for the publicity.
But Michael Regnier, general manager at Old Chicago, said there were no plans to purchase a radio receiver for games not broadcast on television.
To be fair, the business makes no promises about other weekends and even loses money on the Big Blue Weekends, Miller said.
Tom Rost, general manager at Holiday Inn, also said participation in the weekends has been a way to be involved with the community rather than a money maker.
"A lot of games are on TV, and we wouldn't use it for anything else." Regnier said.
And to be fair, the hotel probably caters to more out-of-towners than the other businesses mentioned here.
More visiting fans than Jayhawk fans generally buys rooms, he said.
Receiver helps Kansas over the Hill
"It was big." Hill said. "We hadn't put many points on the board, and we didn't want to go into halftime behind."
Terry Allen and the Jayhawks turned in a valiant effort Saturday. Players had to be carried off the field.
WILLIAM
But modesty emanates out of Hill when it comes to that
"It was the easiest punt return ever," he said. "I just caught it and ran to the wall. We had 10 guys set up in a wall just killing people, and I just ran down the sideline. I didn't have to make any moves at all."
And where could you listen to the game? Too few Lawrence businesses supported the team when there wasn't a home game crowd in it for them.
In the closing seconds of the first half, with the Jayhawks down 7-3, Hill returned a punt 81 yards for a touchdown to put the Jayhawks up 10-7 going into halftime.
But I'm still mad.
After observing from the sideline a year ago, Hill said he could not have dreamed of a better finish to a football game.
punt return.
Now he said he just hoped to carry that momentum into Saturday's game against Texas A&M.

Career-high performance key in Jayhawks' victory
By Jodi M. Smith
Kansan sportswriter
Friedrichs is an Bremen graduate student in journalism.
Saturday night, playing on a completely healed left ankle, Hill dazzled and wowed the University of Alabama at Birmingham football team right out of a victory.
He did have to make moves later in the game, though.
Only a year ago, wide receiver Harrison Hill was standing on the Kansas football sideline in his jersey and shorts, leaning on two crutches.
And ripped the win right out of the hands of the Blazers while he was at it.
In a four-overtime 39-37
Jayhawk win, Hill scored
his first, second and third
career touchdowns.
On Kansas' first play of the fourth overtime, Wegner found Hill heading toward the end zone once again, this time sand wicked between two Blazers' players.
"I just ran straight up the field and Zac just threw it up there," Hill said. "He wanted to see if I could jump the guy and catch it, and that's what I did. I saw it in the air, I knew I had to catch it, so I just iumped up and got it."
He also caught eight passes for 118 yards, both career highs.
"He stepped up and played," quarterback Zac Wegner said of Hill's play. "He had a great game. He's a hell of an athlete, and I can't say enough good things about the guy."
Probably because there's nothing but good things to say.
In the first play of overtime, Wegner connected with a wide-open Hill for a 25-yard touchdown reception.
At every turn, when the Jayhawks needed a lift, Hill was there to produce points.
That one may have been pretty easy, but the next one wasn't.
He launched it, Hill caught it and a two-point conversion later, the Jayhawks were celebrating a hard-earned victory.
Highly-touted baseball recruit prepares to make big impact
By Randy Withers
Kansan sportswriter
Though the leaves have begun to turn, and football is in the thoughts of most college sports fans, Kansas baseball already has begun to prepare for the spring.
Recruits have joined the veterans of the squad in workouts in an attempt to make the first season in the newly renovated Hoglund-Maupin Stadium a memorable one. Ryan Klockslens, Minnetonka,mnn., freshman is one of the newcomers.
Klockslen was one of the top baseball players in the nation as a high school senior. He plays second and third base — and pitches.
Kansas baseball coach Bobby Randall has been impressed with Klockslen so far.
Jim Peck, who coached Klockslen in American Legion baseball for three years, thinks that Klockslen is a rare talent.
"We're really proud of Ryan and all he's accomplished," Randall said. "He's a special player. He has a great understanding and instinct for the game."
"I've coached this team for 35 years, and he's probably one of the five best I've ever coached." Peck said.
Of those five, Peck said two have gone on to play at the major- league level.
Klocksien played for American Legion Excelsior Post 259, representing the Minnetonka school district. In the American Legion state baseball tournament in Minnesota, he won the MVP award, honoring him as the top player in the state. He also won the regional MVP. That award included a $1,500 scholarship.
"When I got the money, I thought there were other people that deserved it as well as I did, so I split it among the seniors because without them I wouldn't have been in that situation to get that award." Klocksien said.
Despite his summer success, there was at
least one hitch in Klockslen's baseball odyssey. While playing in the regional tournament in Omaha, Neb., his car was broken into.
"Thank God they didn't steal my school stuff." Klockslen said.
"I think there's a lot of senior and upperclassmen leadership on the team, and you can tell that this group likes to have fun," he said. "They're ready to win this year. You can tell with the stadium and plus other things that they're trying to build this program to be one of the best in the Big 12."
He also had to deal with arriving in Lawrence after classes had already started because of his team's appearance in the American Legion national tournament in Las Vegas. However, since arriving in Lawrence, he has been impressed with Kansas baseball.
Though he understands his role as a freshman in the baseball program, Klockslen is hopeful about his chances to play for the Jayhawks this spring.
"I expect from myself just to give it the best I can and hopefully contribute as soon as possible to the team — whether it's pitching, playing infield or getting some hits," he said. "I'll just try my best to be a contributor to the team."
Peck said he thought Klockslen had a great chance for success in the Kansas baseball program.
Klockslen said that beyond physical talent, the intangibles that he possessed were what would make him successful at the collegiate level.
"I think one thing that my high school coaches taught me, personally, is that I'm mentally tough, and I know how to adjust to different situations on the baseball field," Klockslen said. "I think if I can bring that along, not maybe this year, but maybe next year or the next, I will be able to help the team win."

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Sept. 29).
Today's Birthday (sep. 29):
Home and family are more important this year than ever. Say what's on your mind in October, and open up communication. More secrets are revealed in December and January. In February, you've reached a breakthrough on the other side of the breakdown. In March, the work that needs to be done should be obvious.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 5.
Your work, your money and an authority figure are all playing together to your advantage, but you need to do a few little things. First, treat the authority figures in your life with respect. Second, do what they want before they ask.
Third, offer your experience. This could be your lucky day
Taurus (April 20-May 20):Today is a 6.
Your life's about to get easier, but you could still be running into hassles, especially with a domestic project. You want it one way and a roommate wants it another. What you need is an objective third party to act as a moderator and maybe even a mediator.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 6.
Continue being practical, even if you don't feel like it.
You'd rather be playing. You don't want to settle down and delve into difficult subjects, like financial matters.
You'd rather get someone else to do it, and that's not such a bad idea. Hire a Virgo, if at all possible.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is a 5. You're in a productive phase, but you don't have to do it yourself. Your partner would like to help, possibly by ordering you around. Listen to the advice, but keep your own counsel. You're the one who has to make the final choice.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 6.
Keep your nose to the grindstone again today. That's not your favorite position, but one you have to assume every once in a while. In this case, it looks like the work you're doing is making you a better person.
You're learning how to use your talents to the fullest.
Virge (Aug. 23-Sep. 22): Today is a 6.
You might be getting into a completely new romance.
That's always a nice way to look at it, even if you've been in this relationship for years. If you see every day as brand new, with new possibilities and new surprises in store, it keeps your love affair from degenerating into dult routine.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) Today is a 6.
You can anticipate a bit of conflict, but it'll work out.
You're practicing skills you need to get past difficult situations. You go to places where they're likely to occur. You're in luck. There will be plenty of opportunities to show how compassionate you can be.
C
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 6.
There's a thicket of controversy going on again, but that's OK. You're the perfect moderator, because you're fair and honest. You could be called on to exercise those attributes. No problem. Help your friends see the big picture.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 6.
It looks like you're trying to push an older person in the direction you think he or she should go. If you want to win at this game, be respectful and treat this person like royalty. It's not impossible for you to do this. Scorpios have been steering royalty around for centuries.
男 女
C
LION
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20); Today is a 7.
Your friends will never get from here to there without you. You can't see the obstacles they're up against.
You can. Besides providing insights, you can bring good luck. Yes, you're actually a good luck charm for some people you know and admire. Your being there will make a big difference in how things turn out.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19); Today is a 10.
Use a trick that worked before to line things up the way you want them. You might end up with an increase in pay through your own ingenuity. By tackling something another person finds dismaying, you could receive a bonus. Offer your services in an area where they're obviously needed.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 6.
You're working on something fascinating, and it's just about time to see if it really will fly. If you can hold off until tomorrow, your chances improve. Right now, check everything twice and run through all possible malfunctions. The more you can find now, the fewer of them will plague you tomorrow.

Jayhawks' receiver Hill among honored players
DALLAS — Texas running back Ricky Williams, Nebraska rush end Chad Kelsay and Kansas return man-
DENVER
Note: Horoscopes have no basis in scientific fact and should be read for entertainment purposes only.
Hill: Kansas receiver named Big 12 Player of the week.
wide receiver Harrison Hill have been named the Big 12 players of the week. Williams, a senior, ran for a career-high 318 yards on six carries and six touchdowns in the Longhorns' 59-21 victory against Rice. It was the second-most rushing yards in school history. By also catching four passes for 32 yards, he set a school record with 350 all-purpose yards.
Kelsay spearheaded the Comhuskers' 55-7 victory against Washington with four total tackles, two solos, three quarterback hurries, a sack, a forced fumble and an interception. Kelsay set the defensive tone for the
afternoon by knocking down Washington quarterback Brock Huard's first pass attempt and forcing a fumble on the opening play from scrimmage in the second half.
the death of Doak Walker, who won the Heisman Trophy at Southern Methodist University in 1948 and starred with the Detroit Lions in the NFL, has hit Texans especially hard. Walked死 in Steamboat Springs, Colo., on Sunday at 71.
Hill, a redshirt freshman, had an 81-yard punt return, the fifth-longest in school history, in the Jayhawks' 39-37 victory against Alabama-Birmingham in four overtimes. He finished the game with 211 all-purpose yards and three touchdowns. He had eight catches for 118 yards, including a game-winning 25-yard touchdown grab.
"It's an awful loss for society and anyone who cares about college or NFL football," said Mack Brown, Texas football coach. "Doak Walker was what running backs are all about. He had tremendous integrity and character."
"He is such a role model," Brown said. "When the award was named after him, everybody in America wanted their son to grow up and be like Doak Walker."

The Doak Walker Award each year honors the nation's outstanding running back.
'Huskers remain strong with coaching change
Did anybody really think the retirement of Tom Osborne would slow down the Nebraska football juggernaut? Saturday's 55.7 win against Washington would seem to dispel any notion that the "Huskers have lost any magic now that Frank Solich is in charge."

"It was scarf." said Dan McCarney.
ing. Washington obviously has a great program, but Nebraska looked like Nebraska. They just dominated in every way imaginable."

"We need to work on a number of things," he said. "Yet, our kids played tremendously. We were pleased we were able to come off the week off and make some progress."
Solich, of course, was less effusive.
NHL All-Star Neely tries to lose weight after break
NHL
BOSTON — Five-time NHL All-Star Cam Neely has been working out
a few months, mostly to lose weight and to try to avoid a hip replacement. A hip injury drove Neely into retirement two years ago after
He said he thought one reason he probably put on weight was his work as an author, with all the meetings and interviews — many of them in restaurants.
10 years as a right winger for the Boston Bruins and three years with the Vancouver Canucks.
His book, "Hockey for Everybody," is described as the definitive hockey handbook. Among other items, Neely picks the top 10 players from 1983 at various positions. He doesn't include himself.

The Hawaiian-born Konishiki said yesterday that he would work out of the production company KP, which stands for Konishiki Power.
Konishiki, who became a Japanese citizen in 1994, has always spoken of his love for sumo wrestling.

Commentary
Jayhawk wide receiver's value runs up after stellar performance
Better put on your flack jacket because wide receiver Harrison Hill is 'da bomb.' His performance Saturday night against the University of Alabama at Birmingham placed his name among the numerous skilled players the Jayhawks have on offense.
Hill had eight receptions, 118 yards and two touchdowns. In addition, he returned a punt 81 yards for another touchdown with only 12 seconds remaining in the first-half.
Having playmakers and the ability to score points always keeps the Jayhawks in the game, which is what they need, because the defense is not where it was last year. Although they are solid, Kansas is not going to win many ball games by a score of 10-7.
Instead, they might win 39-37 shootouts like the game against the Blazers
However, there must be a limit Kansas can't allow shootouts with the wrong teams.
So far my prediction is true.
The week before Kansas played
Illinois State, I said, "the 'Hawks won't lose for another month."
Some think the Jayhawks have no chance Saturday against No. 19 Tayes A&M
will win Saturday. Let me tell you why
They're wrong. The Jayhawks
tell you why.
Texas A&M
beat North
Texas, a team
picked to lose
by 35, by 19
points.
YOUNG
The Aggies' starting quarterback Brandon Stewart was yanked late in the
second quarter after only leading the Aggies to one touchdown. At that point, Texas A&M had a 7-3 lead. My point — North Texas is a terrible team and the Aggies didn't dominate.
However, the Aggies' secondstring quarterback came off the bench and completed 11 of 13 passes for a career-high 167 yards. But it doesn't matter
which quarterback plays Saturday, because the offense as a whole clearly is struggling.
The score will be 60 so Kansas.
If Kansas State thinks this is the year they will beat Nebraska, they need to wake up and smell the cow patties outside their windows. Nebraska's dismantling of a good Washington Husky team should be enough to take the wind out of the Wildcats.
For the first time this year, the 'Huskers were at full strength, and it wasn't anything less than spectacular. They rushed for 434 yards on 68 carries, and 14 different people ran the ball.
Is it me or are most TV commentors lame?
It doesn't matter what sport it is; baseball, football or basketball. These clowns will mispronounce the names of our favorite players, call people the wrong names and ignore critical parts of a play, all the time making a huge deal over something irrelevant.
They blab just for the sake of blabbing.
We hear the same things about
our favorite teams that we've heard in the previous game from different announcers.
My solution is to turn the television down and turn on a radio station broadcasting the game. It's much better.
For example: Bob Davis, Max Falkenstein and David Lawrence of 105.9 KLZR know what's going on at all times. In addition to knowing everything, if the team isn't playing well, they will share your frustration, or vice versa.
While television announcers are singing the praises of the other team, Davis is expressing the same emotions of many of the Javhawk fans.
Radio brings life into games. It helps that these announcers watch our favorite team every week.
Last Saturday the KU football game was not on television but Davis' exciting voice made it better than watching the game live.

Royals finances have seen better days
By Doug Tucker
By Doug Tucker The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — For the first time since the death of former owner Ewing Kauffman, Royals fans have reason to fret about the future of major league baseball in Kansas City.
Five years after Kauffman left the club in the hands of a charitable trust, there still is no owner to replace him. The $40 million he willed to the team to shore up losses until things got better nearly is gone.
In the meantime, fans seem disinterested. Players seem dispirited. And front-office executives are discouraged at the prospect of further belt-tightening.
On the ownership front, New York lawmiles Miler Prentice III has outbid
apparently half-hearted efforts by groups headed by George Brett and Lamar Hunt. But he hasn't closed the deal because the board of directors is insisting he secure at least half his money from local investors.
Kauffman spent the last years of his life unsuccessfully lobbying wealthy Kansas Citians to buy the team. What chance, people wonder, has Prentice?
The 1998 Royals managed a slight improvement. This season's 72-88 record was five wins better than last year's 67-94. And third place in the AL Central was better than last place finishes in 1996 and 1997.
But they lost seven of their final eight and set a franchise record with 51 home losses.
Before the first pitch is thrown next season, Prentice may realize his
dream of owning a major league baseball team. But his financial reserves are not great. And a payroll
already tilting toward the lower end of the major league spectrum is certain to be trimmed, perhaps as much as 30 percent.
WOLF
They're almost sure to lose some of their eight potential free agents, including third baseman Dean Palmer, whose 119 RBI were second-best all-time for the Royals, and second baseman Jose Offerman, who had career-highs in home runs (seven), runs (102), hits (19), triples (a league-leading 13), RBI (66), walks
(89) and stolen bases (45).
The low point of this season came in June when the Royals and Angels erupted into a major brawl. AL president Gene Budig happened to be in attendance, and several players were disciplined and both managers were ordered to serve eight-game suspensions.
Kauffman Stadium was the scene of one of the most heart-tugging moments in anyone's memory on May 30 when a frail Dan Quisenberry was inducted into the team's hall of fame. Gone was the toused reddish hair he'd worn as a quick-witted star while helping the Royals win two AL pennants in the 1980s.
Now he was bald, the result of surgery that tried — without success — to remove a cancerous tumor from his brain.

Big 12 coaches dislike, question new NCAA right-to-work rule
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Oklahoma coach John Blake
saves it makes him nervous.
Colorado's Rick Neuheisel says there's not a coach in the country who thinks it's a good idea.
The Associated Press
Spike Dykes of Texas Tech goes one better than all of them and calls it "the worst idea in the world."
Allowing boosters to give part-time jobs to scholarship athletes is about as popular among Big 12 football coaches as an official letter of inquiry from the NCAA.
The NCAA's official line is that coaches should be able to control boosters.
"The word 'boosters' scares us all," Kansas coach Terry Allen said during the Big 12 coaches' teleconference yesterday.
And maybe that's because NCAA trouble is exactly where they fear they may be headed. The rule that took effect this semester not only lets players hold part-time jobs, but it also allows boosters to hand out jobs to athletes and to supervise them.
"You can't catch what you can't see," Neuheisel said. "Those are the facts. I understand where the hammer is going to fall. It's the same with agents. To say we can control boosters is to say we can control agents. There's just no way to manage it all."
BIG 12
12 CONFERENCE
There has been speculation that the NCAA instituted the right-to-work rule because it feared another antitrust suit such as the one by entry-level coaches whose salaries the NCAA capped. That lawsuit, still under appeal, could cost the NCAA about $80 million.
"I have no idea why they passed it," said Dykes. "I think it's absolutely the biggest joke I've ever heard."
Coaches also fear that the right-to-work rule will become a factor in recruiting.
And that could be a huge disadvantage for coaches in small towns such as Manhattan and Lubbock, Texas — especially if they're competing against schools in Southern California or large urban areas such as Houston.
"The reason the rule was passed was for a good reason: to help young men get money in their pockets if they don't have any." Texas coach Mack Brown said. "But I hope it doesn't get to be a recruiting factor."

Steelers, Seahawks start season 3-1
re
By Dave Goldberg The Associated Press
The Pittsburgh Steelers had a lot to prove. So did the Seattle Seahawks. Both did it.
For the record, the Steelers beat the Seahawks 13-10 in Pittsburgh Sunday, leaving both teams at 3-1 a quarter of the way through their seasons.
For the Steelers, who always have high expectations, it was a relief to play mistake-free football.
"It was a very gutsy effort," coach Bill Cowher said, whose team barely won despite forcing four turnovers to none for Seattle.
So against unbeaten and untested Seattle, they went back to the basics: Jerome Bettis and more Jerome Bettis, who finished with 138 yards on 28 carries.
What made it gutser was that it came after a 21-0 shutout in Miami that left the team confused and western Pennsylvania in severe agony, particularly about quarterback Kordell Stewart and the offense.
He did it despite an offensive line so banged up that it finished the game with only five healthy players. Brendan Stal, the right guard, finished the game at right tackle; Justin Strzelczyk went from right tackle to left tackle; and rookie Alan Fanea and backup Roger Duffy finished up at guard.
Stewart's stats were ho-hum - 16- for 25 for 108 yards and 11 carries for 22 vards.
But one of the carries was a 10- yard scramble to the Seattle 5-yard line that set up the Steelers' only touchdown, just the kind of play he hadn't been making.
"The whole idea was to get us in third-and-4 and third-and-5 and that's what we did." Bettis said
Dewayne Washington, the cornerback other teams love to pick on, was credited with six defended passes and added an interception. Levon Kirkland, the All-Pro linebacker, was all over the field and may have made the play of the game on a tackle of Ricky Watters on a
The Steelers' defense, needless to say, helped.
fourth-quarter screen pass when Watters had blockers ahead of him and a clear field to the end zone.
In other words, the Pittsburgh defense can carry the Steelers until Stewart, Bettis and the rest of the offense get in synch with Cowher and Ray Sherman, the new offensive coordinator.
"For now, it's good enough," Cowher said. "In the long run, it probably won't be."
For the Seahawks, who haven't had high expectations for a decade, it was a letdown after three blowouts against weak NFC East teams.
But it also proved the Seahawks could play almost even with a good team in a very tough place to play. This was Pittsburgh's ninth straight regular-season win at Three Rivers Stadium.
"I feel like we're a good team," said Watters, one of the few Seahawks who has been deep into the playoffs. "We can't get too excited about our start, and we can't get too down about this. We've got to remember we're 3-1, not 1-3."

Major League Baseball Cubs beat Giants in bid for playoffs
The Associated Press
CHICAGO — Now, Steve Trachsel will be remembered for more than giving up a historic home run. He has pitched those lovable losers, the Chicago Cubs, into the playoffs.
With a home run boost from castoff Gary Gaetti and two key singles by Sammy Sosa, the Cubs beat the San Francisco Giants 5-3 last night winning the one-game playoff for the NL wild-card spot.
The Cubs survived despite a three-run rally in the ninth by the Giants. Barry Bonds, who grounded out with the bases loaded at the end of the seventh, came up again with the bases loaded but managed only a sacrifice fly.
The Cubs have not been to a World Series since 1945 and have not won one in 90 years, yet they are going to the postseason for the first time since 1989.
Now it's on to Atlanta, an extension of one of the most exciting seasons in their history. The Cubs, who won six of nine for the Braves, play Game 1 tomorrow.
Trachsel (15-8), who surrendered Mark McGwire's 2nd home run, did not give
up a hit until pinch-hitter Brent Mayne
singled with one out in the seventh.
Trailing 40, the Glants went on to load the bases with two outs and brought Bonds to the plate. But the three-time MIR grounded out.
against reliever
Felix Heredia.
In the ninth, reliever Kevin Tapani gave up a pair of leadoff singles. That brought to Terry Mullholt.
CUBS
land, who went eight innings and threw 121 pitches Sunday.
Stan Vajier hit an RBI single and pinchhitter Ellis Burks walked, loaded the bases with no outs and the score 5-1. But Bonds filed out, and then Rod Beck earned his 51st save, getting Jeff Kent on an RBI forceout and retiring Joe Carter on a popup.
It was Carter's final at-bat in the majors. At 38, the hero of the 1993 World Series is retiring.
The Cubs almost did not make it this
far, losing six of their previous eight games, including Sunday's finale in Houston. But they were saved when Colorado rallied from a 7-0 deficit beating the Giants 9-8, and forcing the first one-game playoff in the NL since 1980.
Trachsel and Giants starter Mark Gardner kept it scoreless until the fifth inning.
GVINTS
Henry Rodriguez singled and Gaetti lifted a two-run
bried to left, his 19th of the season and
homer to left, his 19th of the season and
eighth since joining the Cubs on Aug. 19
after his release by St. Louis.
Gaetti raised his arms in triumph as the ball landed in the left-field seats.
Singles by Lance Johnson and Sosa drove out Gardner (13-6) in the sixth. Rich Rodriguez relieved and after Grace walked to load the bases, Matt Mieske, called up from the minors earlier this month, lined a two-run single to right for a 4-1 lead.
Sosa went 2-for-4 with a pair of singles, scoring in the eighth on Jose Mesa's wild
pitch.
Sosa finished the regular season with 66 home runs, trailing McGwire's 70. But Sosa gets something McGwire does not — a chance to play into October.
Trachsel had not won since Aug. 28 and had given up eight homers in his previous four starts. And he struggled with his control.
He loaded the bases by hitting a batter and walking two in the fourth before slipping a called third strike past Brian Johnson. By the end of five, he had already thrown 96 pitches.
Trachsel allowed just one hit in 61 3-inches, walking six and striking out six.
After Mayne singled, Trachsel walked pinch-hitter Armando Rios and was replaced by Matt Karchner.
After another reserve, left fielder Orlando Merced, reached into the seats to pluck Javier's foul fly, ex-Cub Shawon Dunston got an infield single to load the bases.
But Bonds bounced out to end the threat. Bonds, a career .200 hitter in four postseason series, went 0-for-4 with a sacrifice fly.
Braves quietly sliding into division playoffs
Bv Paul Newberry
The Associated Press
He's right in the Atlanta Braves' clubhouse.
ATLANTA — Finally, someone who doesn't seem mesmerized by this remarkable baseball season.
I don't think I'll even watch the game," the Braves' closer said, before an afternoon workout at Turner Field. "I don't know who to root for. I don't know who I want to play. I just take the night off and relax. I'll probably be watching Ally McBeal."
While most of his teammates planned to watch last night's wild-card playoff between the Cubs and Giants, Kerry Ligtenberg was making alternate plans.
A day after finishing a record-breaking regular season, the Braves returned to Turner Field for a one-hour workout under gray, threatening skies.
The mood was casual and relaxed, not surprising for a team that has won seven straight division titles.
In fact, the Braves have generated very little attention this season, just going about the business of winning while fans focused on Mark McGwire's 70 homers, the New York Yankees' 114 victories and an National League wildcard race that went beyond the final day.
Did anyone notice Atlanta won a team-record 106 games, a figure surpassed by only five teams in NL history?
“It’s nice to kind of slip in the back door,” Braves' second baseman Keith Lockhart said. “A lot has happened that deterred attention from us this year.”
The Braves might even be viewed as an underdog to Houston and Randy Johnson should those teams advance
Braves
to the league championship series. The Astros are meeting San Diego in the other division series.
Certainly, the Braves weren't disappointed that the team they'll face in the best-of-five division series, which begins Wednesday at Turner Field, had to play an extra game.
Atlanta clinched the NL East on Sept. 14 and won 14 of its last 16 games including a seven-game winning streak to finish up.
The Braves haven't needed much help in the division series, losing only one game in three years since the format began in 1995. Maybe that's why the fans of Atlanta have shown lukewarm interest in this phase of the postseason.
(18-9). Kevin Millwood and Denny Neagle, who combined for 33 wins, will bolster the bulpen.
The pitching rotation is set: John Smoltz (17-3) in Game 1, followed by Tom Glavine (20-6) and Greg Maddux
As of yesterday, several thousand tickets were available for the first two games at 49,000-seat Turner Field.
The Braves won't set their 25-man roster until tomorrow, but the only decisions involve the final two spots in the bullpen.
A right-handed opening will probably go to either Dennis Martinez (4-6, 4.45 ERA) or Russ Springer (5-4, 1.0); a left-handed spot seems reserved for Norm Carlton (1.38, one save since joining Atlanta) or rookie Odalis Perez (0-1, 4.22).
PENN STATE
Lions trounce Bucs for first victory of year
The Associated Press
PONTIAC, Mich. — It was a big night for Detroit rookies, and the Lions got their first victory.
Rookie defensive back Terry Fair returned a kick off 105 yards for a touchdown, and rookie quarterback Charlie Batch scored on a sneak as the Lions beat the Tampa Bay Buccaneers 27-6 last night.
Fair's kickoff return that broke the game open in the fourth quarter was the longest touchdown in Lions' history. Batch, in his second start, completed 14-of-23
dry. Batch of its second passes for 115 yards and scored on a 1-yard sneak in the third quarter.
Batch's total offense was 154 yards. Tampa's Bay's team total was 133.
Bryant Westbrook scored on a 34-yard interception return and Jason Hanson kicked field goals of 27 and 25 vards for the Lions.
Michael Husted kicked field goals of 43 and 47 yards for the Bucs (1-3).
Barry Sanders rushed for 131 yards on 27 carries and had 23 yards receiving. Trent Dilfer was 12-of-30 for 120 yards with one interception for the Bucs.
The game was held up for 10 minutes in the second quarter after rookie Tampa Bay receiver Brice Hunter
was injured during a helmet-to-helmet collision with Detroit's Mark Carrier. Hunter was carried from the field on a stretcher and evaluated at the POH Medical Center emergency trauma center.
CHICAGO
Hunter had full use of all extremities, and was
expected to be released late last night
with I-42 left in the third quarter, Difler hit Karl Williams in the end zone with a 24-yard touchdown pass that would have closed the gap to 20-10. But the play was waved off by a delay penalty. Robert Porcher broke in sacking Difler on the next play, and the Bucs punted.
With 10:44 left in the fourth quarter, Dilfer hit Dave Moore for another apparent touchdown, but Dilfer was flagged for being beyond the line of scrimmage when he threw the ball. The Bucs settled for Husted's second field goal.
But Fair, returned the ensuing kickoff for a 27-6 lead.
But the results were the same. Batch could not get
Detroit into the end zone, so the Lions had to settle for a pair of field goals and a 6-3 halftime lead.
On the third snap of the third quarter, Westbrook stepped in front of Williams for Detroit's first turnover of the season. Westbrook zipped down the sideline for the touchdown and a 13-3 Detroit lead.

THE STUDENT NEWSPAPER OF THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS
(USPS 650-640)
The title of KU student body president doesn't come without pressures and paradoxes. But most who have held the office say the experience pays off ...
After the reign
story by brandon cople special to the kansan
.
On a Friday afternoon, when activity in Strong Hall has slowed to a crawl, it is quiet in David Ambler's office inside the Student Affairs suite.
Student Allan is sure.
Amber sits in a high-backed chair a few feet from a sunbeam that warms the room and softens the fluorescent lighting. He's talking about his kids, telling stories about when they were in his care. He can recount precisely what each is doing now that they're grown.
"These are neat people," he says. "If you look at their background, at their upbringing, I think you would find they were taught to value responsible citizenship at some point."
In his cozy office, it's easy to forget that they aren't David Ambier's real children.
They are his student body presidents, the college kids elected to lead student government since Ambler arrived at the University of Kansas in 1977. As vice chancellor, he has worked with them for 20 years. After they leave the University, the presidents may lose touch with the other students they worked with in student government. They rarely lose touch with David Ambler.
True. he loses track of a few of them from time to time. But it's funny how he tends to run into these kids.
Last winter, Amber's plane slid off the runway at O'Hare Airport in Chicago. After the evacuation, as he was milling around on the runway, Amber ran into Jason Krakow, a president from 10 years ago.
Others, such as David Adkins (president, 1882), are hard to lose track of because they're in
Probably more than any other former student president, Adkins, a Republican state legislator and Johnson County attorney, represents the student-political norm at the University of Kansas.
The office of student body president seems to produce a lot of people like David Adkins attorney and business people who live in Johnson County. That's because, Ambler says, the job of running student government attracts people with a sense of community and a lot of ambition. They leave office with managerial and political experience that most college students don't get. They apply the experience, the ambition and the connections, and most of them end up practicing law or running a business or consulting in Leawood or Mission Hills or Prairie Village.

Groups hold write-a-thon
Few students take note of concerns
By Pallavi Agarwal Kansan staff writer
Some University of Kansas students got together last night to show that a pen and paper can have the power for change.
Nine KU student organizations marshaled forces for a write-aathon, organized by the Concerned, Aware and Active Students, a KU activist and advocacy group.
Only about 25 students participated in the event, which took place from 7 to 9 p.m. in the Kansas Union lobby.
"It is the first time that a writeathon has been arranged with so many groups participating," said Corey Snyder, Topeka sophomore and co-director of Concerned, Aware and Active Students. "We're trying this out."
Students wrote about a variety of different topics.
Some of the participating groups were old-timers at letter writing as activism.
The KU chapter of Amnesty International, a human rights organization, writes letters to prisoners around the world.
"We average 30 letters a week at KU," said Kyle Browning, Overland Park sophomore and club president. "Letter writing has a big impact on improving the conditions of prisoners or helping out their cause."
Last night, the group was writing letters in support of an Ethiopian prisoner of conscience. Tave Woldemasayat.
Julia Gilmore, Clay Center sophomore, wrote a personal letter to the KU Academic Procedures and Policies Committee, urging it to give students the option of alternative assignments if their moral or ethical values interfered with one.
Gilmore, who has written letters before, said they made a difference.
Burdett Loomis, interim director for the Dole Institute of Public Service and Public Policy, did not think letter writing by students had much impact on legislation.
Barbara Ballard, Kansas representative and assistant vice chancellor at the University, disagreed.
"Students have the lowest voting numbers and so don't have much lobbying power," he said.
If legislators belonged to a constituency with universities, they had to be responsive to the needs of students, she said.
Snyder agreed that students did not have much legislative power but said that eventually group letter writing could help increase their presence in political life.
Alarm goes off in Strong Hall; fire does not cause major harm
Students and faculty were evacuated from Strong Hall yesterday morning because of a small electrical fire at room 300g.
Lawrence firefighters responded to a call at 9:23 a.m. In Strong Hall.

Captain Lexie Engleman of Lawrence-Douglas County Fire and Medical said the fire was already out when firefighters arrived.
"Someone on the scene probably used an extinguisher and put it out," she said.
"It was contained to the outlet box," Engleman said. "It didn't go into the structural members of the building at all. It wasn't anything big."
The fire caused only minor damage and did not spread far in the building.
Sgt. Troy Malien of the KU Public Safety Office said the fire was caused by wiring in the room
Mari Eilyn Swims, Glen Eilyn, III, sophomore, was in class at room 335 when the fire occurred. She said her class evacuated the building but that many people did not leave.
"There was an electrical short in a wall outlet." Mailen said. "They're doing a lot of rewiring in Strong. This was apparently some of the old wiring that hadn't been changed out yet."
Swims also had class at room 300g, where the fire occurred, at 11 a.m. yesterday. She said that the room was not seriously damaged from the incident.
"I didn't hear any fire alarms go off," she said. "It didn't seem like the whole building was empty."

Cameras protect pubs from underage drinkers
By Augustus Anthony Piazza and Jason Poarce Kansan staff writers
A Lawrence bar owner avoided a possible fine and bar-license suspension when Lawrence police caught an underage University of Kansas student drinking an alcoholic beverage in the bar.
Alcohol Agenda
ers Sports Bar, 804 W. 24th St., said that the student had used her sister's identification to pass as more than 21 years-old.
Dannie Thompson, owner of Bleach
"When an officer took her aside
and asked to see her license, she said she didn't have one," he said. "But we had it on tape, and the girl confessed."
Bleachers; Bull Winkles Bar, 1344 Tennessee St.; Cadillac Ranch, 2515 W. 6th St.; Flamingo Club, 501 N. 9th St.; and Louise's Bar Downtown, 1009 Massachusetts St., have installed a new identification-check system to shield itself from incurring fines and suspensions.
The system uses four video cameras that record footage of bar patrons presenting their identification to bar employees. One camera records a close-up of the identifications, while the other three are positioned to record different angles of the entrance area.
"People are getting good enough now at making fake ID's that you can't tell what's real and what's not, so we had to find a way to protect ourselves," said John Davis, owner of the Cadillac Ranch and Bull Winkles.
Davis said that he would look into an option to market and sell more of these systems in the future.
He sold systems, which cost $3,000,
to local bars that were interested.
Davis developed the system after he was unable to find systems that he had read about.

"We are going to see a lot of bars going to this system or one like it." Davis said. "We have no choice if we want to stav in business."
The development of the system Davis said, stemmed from tighter state drinking-establishment regulations
The new Alcohol Beverage Control regulations, which took effect July 1, state that any Kansas drinking establishment that receives nine minor-inpossession tickets within four years will lose its liquor license.
Drinking establishments are subject to fines between $100 and $1,000 per violation, depending on the number of previous offenses against the drinking establishment. Also, the business can

Pizza deliverer robbed of seven pizzas, money
A 30-year-old pizza delivery driver was smashed on the head with a blunt object and robbed Sunday night in the 2300 block of Murphy Drive, Lawrence police said.
The Lawrence man, who works for Gumby's Pizza, 1445 W. 23rd St., was delivering seven pizzas to 2347 Murphy Drive when he was approached by a woman in a parking lot at that address, police said.
"The female suspect led the victim to the side of the building," said Lawrence police Sgt. George Wheeler. "He was then approached by two males and hit on the head with something like a rock."
Police said that the man did not know what he was hit with, but his head was covered with blood following the attack.
He was treated at the scene by Lawrence Douglas County Fire and Medical but was not hospitalized.
Seven large pizzas, a wallet with an undisclosed amount of cash and a pizza carrying case were stolen from the driver.
Gummy's Pizza would not comment. Police are looking for two men and a woman, all with reportedly dark complexions, in connection with the robbery
All three were described to be in their late teens or early 20s.
If found, the three face charges of aggravated battery and armed robbery, police said.
Police said the robbery was similar to the recent robbery of a Pizza Shuttle driver earlier this month.
Both drivers were robbed in the same area, and similar tactics were used by the robbers in both cases.
By Keith Burner
Police said they did not know if the incidents were connected, and no suspects have been identified in either of the robberies.
Woman's car damaged in crash, police say
A 44-year-old Lawrence woman's car was destroyed Monday night when a van crossed three lanes of traffic and struck her station wagon head-on near the corner of Clinton Parkway and Kasold Drive, Lawrence police said.
The man, 48, was driving his gray Ford van west in the right lane of Clinton Parkway when his car swerved across traffic and struck the victim's blue 1994 Oldsmobile station wagon.
She told police that when her car was struck, the air bag inflated.
"And it probably saved her life," said Lawrence police Sgt. George Wheeler.
Lewis police joke Though her car was totaled, the victim suffered only minor injuries, police said.
The driver of the van, who was not wearing a seat belt, received treatment

at Lawrence Memorial Hospital. He was cited for operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of alcohol, having no driver's license and driving left of center.
Hashinger Hall goes without air conditioning
A transformer that shorted out in Hashing Hall early Sept. 21 has left the residents in the heat for longer than KU maintenance expected.
After a rusted pipe filtered water onto the hall's transformer and broke it, the air conditioning unit throughout the hall was automatically shut off.
Phil Garito, director of maintenance at the department of student housing, said that the air conditioning would be fixed when the transformer was replaced.
He said that it had taken longer than the department expected to locate a transformer that will fit in the space.
When the transformer was built in 1962, it was the standard size and up-to-date technologically. Garito said that many manufacturers did not have this type in stock because of the expense.
Two prices have been quoted to replace the transformer: $7,600 and $29,000. Garito said that the prices depended on if the transformer is rebuilt or if the University buys a new one.
Garito said that he appreciated the residents' cooperation and apologized for the heat.
Maintenance hopes to have the air conditioning fixed by mid-October.
"People come into their rooms and then come out 30 minutes later sweating," said Cassie Holman, Liberal sophomore and Hashinger resident. "It's pretty unbeatable in these rooms with no circulation."

McCollum Hall to hold Dessert and Diversity
Tonight, University of Kansas students can have some diversity with their juice and cookies.
McCollum Hall will be sponsoring its first multicultural program of the year, Dessert and Diversity, at 9 p.m. in the main lobby.
The program, organized by resident assistants Justin Mills, Mike Morgan and Tugce Sarikus, will feature a short speech by Tammi Lewis, assistant director of the Office of Minority Affairs.
— By Steph Brewer
Mills said the program was free and open to all students. The purpose of the program is to educate students about the different cultures in McColum Hall and on campus, he said.
Mills, Lansing sophomore, said countries such as Syria and Japan would be represented.
International students will also set up tables with pictures, clothing and information about their respective countries.
"McColum has a very diverse population, and we wanted to display that," Mills said.
Taiwan agrees to buy surplus of U.S. grains
NATION
WASHINGTON — Taiwan will buy up to $1.15 billion worth of U.S. grain next year, officials from both countries said yesterday.
During a Capitol Hill ceremony, officials signed letters indicating Taiwan will buy up to 7.5 million metric tons of wheat, soybeans, corn, sorghum and barley. Taiwan already is the fifth-largest overseas market for American farm products.
It is welcome news to farmers, whose income is projected to sink by more than 7 billion in the face of huge worldwide supplies and deflated exports.
"If you'd like to buy more, we've got great prices," Sen. Sam Brownback, R-Kan., told the 21-member Taiwanese delegation amid laughter. "We've got mountains of it piled up on the ground in Kansas."
The Agricultural Goodwill Mission will travel to Kansas, Missouri, Illinois, South Dakota, Iowa and Montana to meet with local officials and farm representatives to cultivate trade relations.
Taiwan today is the second-biggest overseas corn market, the fourth-largest soybean and barley market and the seventh-largest wheat market.
Oil spill goes unclaimed off California shoreline
SAN FRANCISCO — A 10-mile-long, 2-mile-wide oil spill threatened the California coast yesterday, as officials and oil companies rushed out a cleanup ship and authorities tried to determine who was responsible.
The spill, about 10 miles west of the Golden Gate Bridge, was reported yesterday by a vessel that passed through it. Area oil companies sent a skimmer vessel to suck up the oil while a Coast Guard helicopter tried to determine the spill's size.
"It's not on the shoreline right now," said Coast Guard Lt. Richard Teubner.
"It's close enough that if there are any changes in the weather, there could be impacts on the wildlife and the shoreline."
A skimmer boat, which uses a containment boom that works like a conveyor belt to suck up the oil, was sent by a cooperative of oil companies. It will be followed by at least four others.
No one has taken responsibility for the spill. State and federal pollution investigators were tracking shipping activity, and samples from the spill will be compared with oil taken from ships in the area. Teubner said.

Local area codes change to 785
By Jason Pearce
Kansan news writer
Cellular phone owners, speed-dial users, fax machine operators and regular telephone users will need to prepare for tomorrow's permanent area code change.
The change only allows callers to use the 913 area code for calling the northeast corner of Kansas. Others will be required to dial 785 for the northern half of the state and 316 for the southern half.
According to a Southwestern Bell press release, people who mistakenly dial the wrong area code will hear a recorded message that explains that the number they dialed is in the 785 area code.
The area code addition will not impact 911 service, long-distance charges or local service rates, according to the press release.
Rosemary Foreman, director for public affairs for the Kansas Corporation Commission, said that an increase in telecommunication needs—including cellular phones, pagers, and data lines—forced the commission to split the area code by Oct. 1.
Foreman said that in July 1997, the commission began a drive to get people used to the 785 area code.
"We started the planning process early simply because we had the time available," she said.
Foreman said the extended period also allowed people ample time to change business cards, letterhead and other stationery to the new area code
"More importantly we wanted to give business customers enough time to reprogram their automated dialing systems," Foreman said.
Tom Hutton, university relations director, said that the University of Kansas delivered several messages to faculty reminding them to reprogram automatic dialing systems, which include fax machines and phone dialers.
"We are certainly ready for it, but there will probably be a few exceptions." Hutton said.

have its license suspended between one day and two weeks.
Davis said that any bar would have a difficult time dealing with the stiffer regulations because of the availability and perfection of fake IDs.
"On the Internet, you can even make one from any state in the U.S. in about 10 minutes," he said.
Sheila Walker, public information officer for Kansas Department of Revenue, which regulates the ABC, said she thought an attempt to cut down on underage drinking was a step in the right direction.
But Thompson said that the new system was only as good as the employee working the door.
"As an owner, I cannot sit and watch the door
man all night," he said. "But I can go back and watch the video to see how he is doing."
An employee of Bleachers, Jeff Drilling, Overland Park junior, said that the system had increased the wait to get into the bar.
Dreiling also said that the system led to some timid actions by bar patrons.
"The first time people came in, they were scared and some actually left," he said.
But once they saw the identification checkers in other local bars, they became more comfortable with the system, Drelling said.
One bar patron, Tim McShane, Brookfield, Wis., junior, thinks that the new systems are used exclusively to get the bar out of trouble.
McShane, who said that he had used false identification in order to get into the bars, was not worried by the new systems.
"Their liability is out the window," he said.
"The bars cannot get in trouble for taking a fake
ID."
"Bars with this system will take any fake ID as long as they can take the picture and have liability on their side," McShane said.
In the end, he said, people will have an easier time drinking underage than before the systems were installed.
"The way people would be scared to use a fake is when the doorman takes a real long look at the drivers' licenses."
Dean Reynoldson, enforcement manager for the Kansas Department of Revenue, said that bar owners still could get into trouble for allowing patrons with obvious fake identification to enter.
ABC cracks down on bars with new penalties
By Liz Wristen and Pallavi Agarwal Kansan staff writers
Drinking establishments and retail liquor stores in Lawrence that sell to minors have to contend with enhanced penalties.
In an effort to tighten the noose on repeated underage drinking violations by those with state alcohol licenses, the Alcohol Beverage Control, implemented a new penalty structure July 1.
The ABC is a state regulatory body, and the alcohol watchdog of state alcohol licensees.
Alcohol Agenda
The penalties
get steeper with every violation, according to the Kansas Department of Revenue, which controls the ABC.
Previously, fines were levied arbitrarily, said Sheila Walker, public information officer with the department.
“If a person had four violations, he was charged, say, $500,” she said. “A different person was charged the same $500 for two violations. The new structure prescribes set penalties per violation and is consistent for each violator.”
Penalties include fines, temporary suspension of licenses and optional training sessions.
A first offense will result in a week's suspension from selling liquor or an optional training session with no fines levied.
Fines and temporary suspension of licenses will be levied starting with the second offense. The penalties increase with each successive offense.
Landon Thompson, manager of Johnny's Tavern, 401 N. Second St., said the new penalties were changing the nature of the bar business.
"A lot of bars used to have nights for anyone 18 and up, but now pretty much every place has gone to 21 and over," he said.
Dean Reynoldson, enforcement manager of the department of revenue said that statistics from July 1 to Sept. 24 showed that the penalty structure was working.
While 65 percent of the bars and retail liquor shops monitored complied with the law by not selling to minors before July 1, the figure has risen to 79 percent, he said.
Ninety-two drinking establishments with state licenses, and 29 retail liquor stores in Lawrence fall under ABC's jurisdiction. Cereal and malt beverage violations are not included, said Sgt. George Wheeler, Lawrence Police media relations officer.
The student community at the University of Kansas appeared divided about the efficacy of the new penalty structure.

Craig Lybarger, Akron, Ohio senior, said that many minors have the desire to drink alcohol because it is the in thing to do.

3. $300 1 weekend day (Friday or Saturday)

owner who will voluntarily sell drinks to minors. Many do it because of fake DDs," she said.
"I am definitely for the enforcement of stricter regulations against younger people," he said.
KU minors, who drink at parties, did not see the drinking culture changing very much.
Amy Jones, Topea sophomore,
said she did not go to bars but
knew several minors who did.
"It's pretty easy to get alcohol," she said. "I don't know of anybody who has gotten caught."
She thought that liquor store owners should not get penalized for selling to minors.
Licenses owners sometimes do not know they are selling to underage drinkers because underage drinkers have false identification.
"I don't know any liquor store
Reynolds said that to address this problem, the ABC had arranged more training sessions for licensees so that they could better learn strategies to detect fake identification.
The penalty structure is part of ABC's larger strategy to curb illegal alcohol drinking and selling.
two surveillance programs were instituted last year in which underage ABC volunteers posed as customers in bars and liquor stores to nab owners selling alcohol to minors, and ABC agents acted as liquor store employees, busting underage buyers in ABC's cops-in-shops program.
From July 1 to Sept. 24, underage ABC volunteers made 75 random visits to bars and caught 16 violators.
A swoop on 119 drinking establishments and liquor stores with past records of illegal liquor sales revealed 39 cases of alcohol sale to minors. Reynoldson said.
The 250 cops-in-shops operations caught 63 underage drinkers and 528 bar checks yielded another 105 violations by minors, Reynoldson said.

Rising beer prices drain student funds
Buoyed by a strong economy and the strongest beer market ever, beer companies hope that not even price can come between beer drinkers and their beer.
Industry-leading breweries such as anheuser-Busch and Coors announced their intentions to raise prices this fall. The companies have indicated that strong demand for beer will overcome any negative impact the price increase could have.
St. Louis-based Anheuser-Busch said its prices probably will increase by less than 2 percent.
"This is due to our strong sales trends and the fact that many markets have not had a price increase in two years," a company representative said.
While retailers have concerns about the price increase, Jeff Simmons, Independence senior, said it will not change student drinking habits.
"It won't slow anyone down at all," he said. "They might complain more, but they'll still drink beer."
Other breweries are expected to follow Anheuser-Busch's increase.
would be unusual to see much disparity in pricing."
"This industry is competitive," said Mary Anschutz, marketing manager for Coors. "It would be unusual to see much disparity in
Anschutz said many factors go into setting beer prices. Cost of goods, taxes, shipping and marketing efforts all affect the consumer's price. The industry is particularly sensitive to barley, aluminum, glass and railroad shipping prices, she said.
Greg McDonald, president of McDonald Beverage, downplayed the price increases. He said they were below the rate of inflation.
peer might increase by an average of 35 cents.
McDonald is the local distributor for products such as Budweiser and Michelob.
He said the increases were not across-the-board. Keg prices will increase, but the 12-ounce container price will not change. He said a case of
Rick Renfro, partner at Johnny's Tay,
ern, 401 N. Second St., said retail outlets have felt the pinch of increased prices.
"That's one of the reasons business is so slow in taverns and bars now," he said. "We have to charge based on what the distributor sells the beer for."
He said if prices go too high, people who are not brand-loyal might switch to less expensive brands to save $2 or $3.
Liquor store owner Jim Myers said customers were price sensitive. His store, Myers Retail Liquor, 902 W. 23rd St., caters to cost-conscious buyers by being a discount retailer.
Anheuser-Busch sales figures support the idea that people will pay for premium beers. July was the best sales month in the history of the brewing industry, with Anheuser-Busch selling 9.1 million barrels of beer domestically.

University should meet the needs of popular human sexuality course
Only one thing could keep almost 500 students glued to their seats on beautiful fall afternoons: sex.
One of the most popular classes at the University of Kansas is Social Welfare 303: Human Sexuality in Everyday Life. For the last 12 years, Professor Dennis Dailey has been giving his love lectures to capacity crowds. Although it cannot be confirmed, rumor has it that his class fills up faster than any other on campus.
Evidently, Professor Dailey is doing something right. However, there is a problem. There is only one section of the class, and it is only offered in the fall semester. Popular demand would seem to dictate that more sections be offered or that the
Dennis Daily may not be able to teach all sections, but more of them should be available.
class be offered again in the spring.
Students should not expect Professor Dailey to teach all of these sections. Other faculty members in his department have said he is an extremely gifted instructor whose main job is to train people in the art of being social workers.
He works closely with graduate students in both fall and spring semesters. Spring is most important to him and those students, because he is helping many of them finish academic careers and start their professional lives.
Course offerings and the people who will teach them are largely decided by the University and the particular department or school. Given this situation, more sections of this class should be offered. Not every student would be able to take Professor Dailey's section, but at least there would be an increased opportunity to take the course itself.
Also, the University should consider arranging for students who take this course in the spring through Ecumenical Christian Ministries (taught by Professor Dailey) to receive the same University credit as those who take it in the fall.

Students should support KU football
Many think the University of Kansas has some of the best sports fans in the nation. Although this may be true when it comes to men's basketball, it is not exactly true in football.
During the first two home football games this season, student attendance has been down from previous years. That is discouraging.
One key ingredient necessary for the football team to improve is a strong fan base, and that starts with students. Students must make a conscious effort to get to games and support the football team.
Football teams feed off fan support. A loud crowd can disrupt the visiting team and hurt its play, and a roaring crowd gives confidence to the home
There are four home football games left for students to show their team spirit.

games. it can affect how a team plavs.
Men's basketball coach Roy Williams has long said there have been times when loud crowds cheering in Allen Field House have helped propel Kansas to victory. The football team, however, cannot say the same.
When students do not show at
The best programs in the nation get that reputation not just for winning, but because they have strong, exciting student support.
The Kansas football team is not one of the best in the nation, but it is working to earn that title. However, it cannot get there without a great fan base, and that must be provided by students. It has done wonders for the basketball team.
There are four home games left including one this Saturday. Tickets are just $10 a game for students.

STARS plan a solution that lacks a problem
Tom Sawyer is an honorable man. The minority leader in the Kansas House of Representatives has left his fairly safe position to run for governor. As late as June, the Democrats
"Adequate campaign funds would be difficult to raise," said one Democratic state representative.

"Impassible," said another. Organized labor even flung its support to the Republican Graves. But Sawyer, dutiful and selfless, stated that if no other Democrat rose to the challenge, then he would make the ultimate sacrifice and run a kamikaze campaign
$2600-a-year scholarship that could be used at any Kansas university, community college, vocational school or other independent colleges in Kansas. Right now it's just a proposal and I guarantee it stays that way after Sawyer takes his inevitable thrashing at the hands of Graves in November. The proposal is Sawyer's best attempt to set himself apart from the Governor with whom he worked closely in forging a Democratic/moderate Republican coalition in Kansas government.
against Graves. According to a Kansas City Star poll, even Democrats are largely satisfied that Kansas "is on the right track and provides effective and efficient government."
The worst part of it is that if there were a good year for a Democrat to run for governor, this might be it. After a nasty GOP primary in which Graves brilliantly oversold the Evil Conservative Threat of David Miller to get his moderate base to the polls, the Miller camp is still a bit peeved. A split GOP seems required for Democratic victory in the state.
—the proliferation of educational fraud. With Sawyer's proposal in place, respectable high school standards would evaporate. Teachers would feel intense pressure from students and parents to give average or below-average work at least a "B." The premise of the plan is that there are many students who deserve to attend college but can't. But since 1946, the number of full-time students on campuses nationally has risen from 2.4 million to about 9 million with several million more attending part-time. And with cash-strapped institutions desperate for money (a.k.a. students), it's always getting easier.
To Sawyer's credit, he seems to be giving the run an honest effort. The labor rank-and-file has returned to tradition and reversed their leaders by backing the Democratic nominee. Sawyer then got in on the turn-back-the-clock maneuvering and started acting like a Democrat by touting a middle class government entitlement to buy, er, win suburban votes. It is called the STARS program and it is contained in his proposal, a "Vision for Kansas."
The plan would mean free college for every graduating high schooler with a "B" average and has created a merry little band of followers here on campus. The Student Tuition Assistance Recognition Scholarship would hand qualifying students a
In fact, it may be getting too easy. One in four freshman will never see their sophomore year and half won't graduate. A student would also have to maintain a "B" average to keep the "scholarship", producing the same grade inflation here as in high school. That would mean that a KU degree would be roughly on par with the one you got in high school. A good chunk of college graduates already are forced to take jobs not traditionally thought to be worthy of their college education. Sawyer's STARS would provide no practical advancement for young people. It would only raise the bar to where one would have to attend graduate school to get ahead. Real, serious standards improve education. In the end, STARS is just another government solution without a problem, leaving Sawyer's free handout tasting like stale Halloween candy people will pass by on their way to vote for Graves in November.
It's also a bad idea. STARS is difficult to oppose on the surface, but it would exacerbate what is perhaps already the largest problem with schools

Apparently, the pet percussion were going car to car in my apartment parking lot and looking for valuables. My car seemed to offer what they wanted: an open window. Ahem.
My assistance to these crooks aside, I do not think one can describe how it feels to have your car ransacked by strangers. It leaves an acidic taste in your mouth and an empty hole in your stomach. You become wary and nervous. You feel violated and angry. You ... what do you mean they didn't take anything?
Wait a minute! They must have been in a hurry. How could they possibly pass up a chance at the valuable merchandise in my car?
Sure, I can see how they overlooked the stuffed beaver my sister gave me for Christmas a couple years ago. It may be bleached pink now, giving it the air of being invaluable, but it's still a beanie baby. Royalty collects those things.
Yes, the parking permit dangling from the rearview mirror may be a bit dated, but it is still a cool souvenir of your conquest. Besides, the thing is virtually untraceable, since about a thousand people who don't even drive cars own one.
Who could pass up my original, factory-issued tape deck? It's got fast forward, eject and everything else. And let me tell you, it sounds pretty good though those factory speakers. The crackling, hissing sound is what *analoa* is all about. man.
Among the goodies passed up in my glove compartment was a deck of playing cards and a perfectly good Swisher Sweets cigar. Don't kids smoke and gamble anymore?
The police told me that the thieves were probably just looking for money. Apparently, my collection of pennies, paper clips and lint didn't interest them.
By the way, those are genuine-imitation-rayon seat covers with the "Starscapes" design on them.
More than anything, I would like to express my disappointment in the musical taste of my burglarls. Who wouldn't want a vintage copy of Warrant's grand opus. "Cherry Pie?"
A perfectly good road atlas and several back issues of the Kansan were left to bleach in the sun in my back seat. With them lies the roll of toilet paper my mom makes me keep in the car, along with a roadside repair kit containing grandpa's old tools. A little rusty, but a broken ratchet is still a ratchet. I bet McGvey would have taken it.
All three of my Billy Joel cassettes ('I'm not ashamed') were just tossed onto the floor as if the man's life work meant nothing. Although it's true that most of my tapes are just poor, pirate copies of real CDs, that doesn't mean they should suffer the indigence of being passed over by some young punks just out for some quick cash.
A person's automobile stands as a monument to who they are. Everything from personalized floor mats to punk-rock bumper stickers says something about who drives that vehicle. Even a collection of straw wrappers from McDonald's, Burger King and Arby's should be valued as a sim of where the driver has been.
Jokes aside, seeing the contents of my car strewn across the floorboards not only made me thankful I avoided any real automotive damage, but it also made me aware of what I possessed and why it was valuable to me.

Bookstores remind students to purchase fall texts early
By Carolyn Mollett Kansan staff writer
The safe window for buying textbooks this fall is sliding shut.
Bookstores will begin returning texts to distributors within the next few weeks, and managers said students should hurry to buy this semester's materials.
"If you wait until late to buy books, you run into problems," said Bill Getz, assistant manager of Kansas and Burge unions. Getz is responsible for ordering texts for the Kansas Union Bookstore, the Burge Union Bookstore and Edwards Campus.
The bookstores have to begin returning texts to make space for
next semester's books and to earn financial credit for new orders, Getz said.
Keith Kielman, textbook manager at Jayhawk Bookstore, said many distributors had return deadlines, but the store held on to the books as long as possible.
"We will keep getting requisitions for this semester pretty much through December." Kielman said.
Bookstores have received their late-book shipments in recent weeks, and students should be able to find previously unavailable books.
Last year, bookstores had problems getting books in on time because of the United Parcel Service strike. But the bookstore managers said this year's problems were no worse than normal.
TEXTBOOK PURCHASING
Back-ordered textbooks should be available at the Burge Union Bookstore, the Kansas Union Bookstore, Jayhawk Bookstore and University Book Shop. Upon student request, the stores can order most books that are not available.
"The biggest problem is late orders received from instructors," said Mike Lammers, manager of University Book Shop.
When there aren't enough textbooks available and professors have to change books, it is usually because the books are no longer in
print. Lammers said.
Kielman said distributors recently had begun bundling textbooks into packages, which could delay shipping. Sometimes professors had requested only one of the books in the package, but the distributor will send both for the same price.
"So, a book is not showing up because they're putting a bundle together that nobody asked for," Kielman said.
The managers said they were not aware of any KU classes still experiencing problems finding textbooks.
Bookstores will order texts for those who can't find them on the shelves. But Kielman said students need to check all the bookstores before taking that step.
ACLU chapter fights for funds from Senate
By Seth Jones
Kansan staff writer
The University of Kansas chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union is enraged that they did not receive funds from Student Senate, and they are not going to go away, said Buddy Lloyd, ACLU president.
During committee meetings two weeks ago, a bill for $307 to fund the ACLU failed. The reason for the failure was what Lloyd called a blatant attack on the ACLU and on the question of partisanship.
"We're a watchdog for the Bill of Rights. We don't run candidates, we've never endorsed candidates," said Lloyd. "We educate about civil rights."
Julie Numrich SenEx chair, said ACLU could approach the committees again.
Lloyd said this time the group would try to better educate Senate about ACLU's function.
"They don't have to change the bill or anything. They can just re-present the one that got denied back to committees." she said.
"We didn't get the money because of a lack of knowledge," he said. "That is partially our fault. This time we'll tell Senate exactly what we do."
Lloyd said ACLU watches to make sure the rights of students are not violated.
"We were quite concerned during the anti-abortion display," he said. "Some people wanted to ban the display, but we were out there telling people they had freedom of speech."
Without money from Senate, Lloyd said ACLU already had seen a loss because it could not promote events as much as the organization would have liked.
Board discusses parking
Goal of 2,000 new spots to be completed by 2000; 830 spaces already done
By Seth Jones Kansan staff writer
The Parking Board looked yesterday to see where it was on its plan to have 2,000 new parking spaces by the year 2000 at its first meeting of the year.
A plan proposed by Chancellor Robert Hemenway early in 1997 set the goal for the 2,000 spaces. Since then, the parking department has added 830 spots.
Of the remaining spaces needed to complete the goal, 1,000 are to be created with the construction of a parking garage north of the Kansas Union.
Don Kearns, director of parking, said he was confident that the goal would be reached on time.
The remaining spaces are being created by reconfiguring existing lots. The addition of 224 spaces at Oliver Hall has been the biggest gain in parking so far.
Donna Hultine, assistant director of parking, said that with the addition of the parking garage, students would see relief in other lots.
spots for students in those lots. Visitors who park at those meters will then be expected to park in the new garage."
"We're going to remove the parking meters from lots 91 to 94, the lots behind the Union," she said. "And that will add 231
The parking board also addressed the use of stickers as parking permits in place of hang tags.
Hultine said that complaints about the stickers were that some people didn't want to put stickers on their car, some were afraid that their sticker would be stolen and their car scratched in the process, or that they had more than one car that they drove to campus.
"We like the stickers; I wish everyone one had them," Hultine said. "People just need to get used to them. The stickers worked successfully for 20 years before we
GOALS
The goal is to add 2,000 spots by the year 2000.
■ 830 new spaces have been created.
■ 1,170 spaces are left to be created to meet the goal.
■ 1,000 spaces are targeted to be created with the construction of a new parking garage north of the Kansas Union
At least 170 new spaces are targeted to be created from the reconfiguration of existing lots.
went to the five-year hang tag experiment." Hultine said that if a person drove more than one car to campus, they would give them a car tag to move from car to car.
Hultine also said that theft was less likely to occur with the stickers.
"We'd have some students not even realize that their hang tag was stolen until they got a ticket," she said.

Tibetan monks share culture
Lawrence is one of the few stops in the Midwest
By Steph Brewer
Kansan staff writer
Monks from the largest Tibetan monastery in the world will visit Lawrence this week.
The monks, from the Ganden Jangste monastery in southern India, are traveling throughout North America with two purposes: to raise money and to share their culture, said Bruce Nelson, director of the Gandhara Institute. The Kansas City area-based institute is sponsoring the nine monks, who are led by the monastery's abbot, Khensur Rinpoche.
They will arrive in Lawrence and chant at 5 p.m. today at the South Park gazebo. The chanting will be followed by a reception at Plymouth Congregational Church.
The program is free.
The monks are on a tour that begai in July and will last until March. Nelson said the Lawrence/Kansas City visit was one of the only Midwest stops on the tour.
Nelson said the monastery of 4,000 monks was trying to raise money to accommodate and train a constant flow of Tibetan refugees.
"They are trying to preserve their traditional Thetan culture," he said.
China invaded and occupied Tibet in 1949. Tibetan opposition to Chinese rule resulted in a 1959 crackdown during which the Dali Lama, the Tibetan's leader, fled to India along with thousands of refugees. Tibet has been an international issue ever since. The Chinese have been accused of human rights violations, and the Dali Lama has yet to return to his country.
Tomorrow morning the monks will start building a sand mandala at the Spencer Museum of Art. Nelson described a mandala as a geometric painting created from colored sand. The painting represents the monks' spiritual energy.
"It's sort of a beautiful map of the universe," Nelson said.
The mandala will be on display at the museum for three days, until it is finished. After the lamas complete the mandala, they will sweep it up and tote it in the river, as a sort of blessing.
The monks will give a talk about freedom and liberation at 7 p.m. tomorrow at Terra Nova Hall, 920 1/2 Massachusetts St.
Friday, a blessing of the goddess Tara, will be held at the Lawrence Arts Center at 8 p.m.
The monks' visit will end with a seminar on Tibetan spiritual tradition at Terra Nova Hall from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday.
Erik Goodman, president of the University of Kansas organization Students for Free Tibet, said the monks would bring something unique to the University.
"I think more than anything, they bring a message that America is lacking a message that success is more internal than external," said Goodman, Beaver Creek, Ohio, junior.

Nelson said that Kansas City was a major Midwest center for Buddhism. He said that in his experience, Tibetan visitors to Kansas City had connected well with residents.
"They're kind of down to earth, and so are people here," he said.
RA program promotes diversity
Bv Kelli Ravbern
Kansan staff writer
Resident assistants in student housing are now advocates and educators for diversity.
A new diversity RA's program, created by the Department of Student Housing and the Multicultural Resource Center this fall, brings diversity issues before residents.
Three RAs, called senior diversity RAs, have been trained to run the program. The program operates at Ellsworth, Gertrude Sellards Pearson-Corbin, Hashinger, McCollum and Oliver halls.
Gloria Flores, program director at the Multicultural Resource Center, said that all RAs went through training at the center.
come to diversity programs, Flores said.
The center also held a training session Sunday to teach its three senior diversity RAs how to be effective advocates for diversity in the residence halls and how they can creatively entice residents to
Neisha Kerr, diversity RA at GSP-Corbin Hall, said that the program was teaching RAs to understand that diversity was not just about culture but also about learning from people's differences.
Through the program, the Diversity Peer Education Team, another center program, visited Ellsworth Hall. As a result of their visit, Ellsworth resident Jack Rivers decided he wanted to be involved with the team.
"It allowed me to see who they are and what they do," he said.
He also said that the program had sparked valuable discussion among other Ellsworth residents about diversity issues.
Kerr said that because the program was a collaborative effort between housing and the resource center, it would reach many students.
"The point of this program is to form a direct connection between the Multicultural Resource Center and the residence halls."
Gloria Flores
"We as RAs can reach a lot of stu

dents not just in the residence halls, but all over campus," she said.
Flores also emphasized the campus-wide connections that the joint program helped to create.
"This is a great partnership," she said. "We are excited about the things we're doing together."
Flores said that the new program was inspired by Emily Ronning, the assistant complex director at Templin Hall, who took part in a similar program when she was a student at the University of Wisconsin.
"She wanted to model that program here at KU," Flores said.
"The point of this program is to form a direct connection between the Multicultural Resource Center and the residence halls." she said.
Ronning thought that the program was important in targeting diversity issues through more than one channel.
The program requires senior diversity RAs to work three hours each week in the center, Ronning said. She said the program trained the three senior RAs primarily as a resource for other RAs to learn about diversity issues and how to facilitate diversity programs.
"It's really to raise awareness throughout the halls," she said.

Lighting projects for 1999
University plans to keep improving campus lighting
By Kelli Raybern
Kansan staff writer
The number of major lighting projects yet to be completed on campus is dwindling.
With about $2.5 million in University and student funds spent, the University is lighted enough — for some people.
"Ithink it's really good," said Alicia Culley, Douthart Scholarship Hall resident and Moundridge freshman, about the lighting in her area. "They have tons of light."
Not all students agree. Greta Danner, Sellard Scholarship Hall resident and Buhler sophomore, said she sometimes did not feel safe near her home.
"I personally don't like to walk on campus at night," she said.
"Campus is well lit, but when you get down by the scholarship halls, there are only a few lights."
Students at the University have been paying a $2 lighting fee per semester since Fall 1992. The University has matched funds generated by the fee for the completion of lighting projects.
John Mullens, security and emergency planning coordinator and member of the campus lighting committee, said most major lighting needs on campus had been addressed.
These gaps in the lighting coverage around the scholarship hall area concerned Danner.
"A lot of the projects now are going back and filling in gaps," he said. "They are smaller projects."
Danner said she also had noticed only one emergency phone in the scholarship hall area.
"It might make people feel safer if they were closer together," she said.
Mullens said the University planned to soon spend lighting funds on additional blue phones. About 36 additional emergency phones have been proposed for installation, including three near the scholarship halls.
Greg Wade, design and construction management landscape architect and member of the lighting board, said the Campus Light Committee hadn't yet finished its task on campus.
"We're committed to continuing expenditures of around $200,000 a year for as long as it takes to finish," he said. Wade said that even if lighting still needed improvement, progress had been made at the University.
"If you were here 10 years ago, it was incredibly dark in some areas," he said. "Now we're concentrating on kind of more peripheral areas."
Recent on-campus lighting projects since July 1997 include improved street lights on Irving Hill Road and a renovation of lighting in the parking lot north of Oliver Hall, which is nearly completed. Wade said no student funds were used in the Oliver Hall project, which was paid for by the parking department.

Student jewelry to be sold

Proceeds will go to finance trip to art conference
By Mariana Paiva
Kansan staff writer
Sasanqua Link cannot even remember how many pieces of jewelry she has created since school started.
Tomorrow, Link and several other seniors and graduate students majoring in jewelry will sell their pieces from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. in the Art and Design Building.
Link, Fitzwilliam, N. H., graduate student, said the money raised would help them to attend the Sculpture Object and Function Art Conference in Chicago.
Emily Hash, Overland Park senior, said all seniors and graduate students who wanted to participate in the creative process had a chance to express opinions about the type of jewelry to be made.
"I've seen these people in pictures for so long, and there I will have a chance to pick up something they made, try something on." Link said.
"First, we sat down and had discussions about what kind of things we wanted to sell," Hash said. "We did different sketches and later made samples and talked about how we could change them and create variations."
Link said the group used different techniques to decorate the jewelry, including using powder glass, heat and colors to create a material similar to ceramics.
Variety was key for the group, which manufactured rings, beads, necklaces and bracelets with materials ranging from plastic to silver.
Bracelets range from $9 to $150, depending on the material or the time spent producing it. Link said.
"If you are comparing to something that you can get downtown in a boutique, your jewelry may seem expensive," Link said. "But these are not things that you can buy anywhere else. They are hand-done and unique."
The students worked eight hours a day for the past few weeks to prepare for the sale.

Alpha Rho Gamma sponsored the sale by purchasing the materials used to
produce the jewelry. Alpha Rho Gamma is a student organization that supplies material and tools and organizes lectures for art students.
This sale is the first time students majoring in jewelry have produced pieces as a fund-raiser.
Online registration ready in three years at $2.3 million cost
By Liz Wristen
Kansan staff writer
The idea of registering online for classes at the University of Kansas always has been just that: an idea.
But the University purchased $2.3 million worth of software last year that would allow students to register online for classes in 2001.
The University recently put together seven teams that will be in charge of implementing the project. These consist of a leadership team and a project team led by Rich Morrell, university registrar
"This project is just so large that we aren't exactly sure of the implementation date," Morrell said. "It has to be a quality product once it is implemented."
Northampton, Pa..
Kristen Edelman,
senior, said she
thought it was time
students were given
the opportunity to
register online.
"Each month, they pay 30 people to do the same job at the registration office that a computer could do," she said.
"They have been wasting our time, and they have wasted some of their time since we should have had this choice a long time ago."
The University began looking into new software in 1992. After choosing

the system PeopleSoft in 1996, the University spent two years budgeting money for the project.
The finances came from a funding budget, said Kathleen McCluskey-Fawcett, associate provost. This included the purchases of PeopleSoft for the financial aid and billing offices at the University of Kansas Medical Center and the Regents Center.
"Each month, they pay 30 people to do the same job at the registration office that a computer could do. They have been wasting our time, and they have wasted some of their own time since we should have had this choice a long time ago."
Kristen Edelman Northampton, Pa., senior
Morrell said PeopleSoft is organized into seven parts: admissions, student records, advising, campus community, student financial and student financial aid. Morrell said he hoped the entire project would be complete sometime in 2001.
"It is going to take the University a while to finish this project because we have several University systems, and all the data on those systems must be converted to PeopleSoft," McCluskey-Fawcett said. "We must make sure that all the policies and procedures are compatible with the new system."
Of the Big 12 schools, only the University of Missouri offers online registration. Of the six regents schools, only Pittsburg State University offers online registration, which has been available since last summer.
The offices of human resources and payroll, finance and student administration will convert to the PeopleSoft, Morrell said. The software will replace the Student Records Information System.
"I think it is a good idea because it will reduce the headaches of add/drop," said Joe Dix, St. Louis, Mo., junior. "Then we will be able to see online what classes are open, choose our classes and then see if they work with our schedule."
Morrell said that about 60 to 80 institutions-nationwide were using PeopleSoft

PRINCIPLES OF SOUND RETIREMENT INVESTING
RECENTLY MORNINGSTAR CALLED US CHEAP. IT'S NOT EVERY DAY YOU GET A COMPLIMENT LIKE THAT.
All financial companies charge operating fees and expenses—some more than others. Of course, the lower the expenses you pay, the better. That way, more of your money goes where it should—towards building a comfortable future.
We make low expenses a top priority.
In fact, TIAA-CREF's $0.31\%$ average fund expenses are less than half of the expense charges of comparable funds." It's why Morningstar—one of the nation's leading sources of annuity and mutual fund information — says, "At that level [TIAA-CREF] is cheaper than any other
As the largest retirement system in the world'一a nonprofit company focused exclusively on the financial needs of the educational and research communities our expenses are among the lowest in the insurance and mutual fund industries?
[variable annuity] policy, and is even competitive with the cheapest mutual fund complexes, though it offers far more benefits."4
Of course, expenses are only one factor to consider when you make an investment decision Morningstar also noted our commitment to "consumer education, service" and "solid investment performance." Because that can make a difference in the long run, too.
"TIAA-CREF sets the standard in the financial services industry."
At TIAA-CREF, we believe people would like to spend more in retirement, not on their retirement company. Today, over two million people count on that approach to help them build a comfortable and secure future. So can you. To find out more, call us at 1800 842-2776. We'd consider it a compliment.

Political training ground
Of the 26 student body presidents who have served with Ambler, only five have been female.
Petra "Tedde" Tasheff was president in 1977, the year Ambler was hired at the University. Since leaving KU for law school, Tasheff has worked her way into the New York City legal department of one of the nation's biggest financial corporations.
Many of the presidents on Ambler's list are lawyers, and a handful plan on a legal career. Almost all the former presidents work in the legal, corporate or business worlds, and it's a safe bet that all but one or two wear dry clean-only clothes to work every day.
B. Jake White is one of the few who does n't. Until recently, he was waiting tables in Los Angeles while he worked and waited for a break in the movie business.
And not all of the lawyers are commuting from the suburbs to glass buildings in new minivans or sport-utility vehicles. Dennis "Boog" Highberger lives in Lawrence in an old white house that looks like it's rented to a group of college kids. He commutes to Topeka, where he works as an attorney for the Kansas Department of Health and Environment.
Highberger, who shared the presidency with Carla Vogel in 1984, says he and Ambler were never close, probably because Highberger and Vogel ran on one of the few anti-establishment tickets to win an election during Ambler's tenure. Highberger remembers walking into Ambler's office for the first time.
"He had pictures of David and Lisa on his desk," Highberger says, a wry smile barely parting his salt-and-pepper beard.
barely parting his salt and pepper beard. He knew he didn't have much in common with David and Lisa, which meant he probably wouldn't have much in common with David Ambler.
Ambler has lost touch with Boog and Carla Vogel. David and Lisa, on the other hand, have stayed in touch.
In 1979, his freshman year at KU, Adkins was elected class president. In the spring, he won a Nunemaker seat in Student Senate. As a sophomore, he served as chairman of the Student Executive Committee and was named a Truman Scholar. At the end of that year, he was elected student body president.
His political career stopped so he could finish college, get a law degree and, before being elected to the Legislature for the first time in 1982, take a job in Kansas City with a law firm co-founded by former Kansas Governor Robert Bennett.
That firm merged this year with a larger Kansas City firm, and Adkins now serves as special counsel for the Greater Kansas City Community Foundation.
But the governorship seems to hold a special allure for David Adkins, even if his aspirations have cooled a little since his days as student body president.
"When I was student body president, I planned on being governor," he says. "But as a legislator, I've realized that you only have a limited time to accomplish the things you want to accomplish, and there's a certain freedom that comes with that realization.
"I'll be just fine if I'm never the governor of Kansas."
Don't think he's given up on politics. He still revels in the stories about college elections and the chaos of a campaign's final days.
He calls being student body president at the University the best training program for running for the Legislature, and he cites all kinds of ways the office helped prepare him for politics in the real world.
"Politics is one of those self-revealing enterprises," he says. "You're out there with your name on the ballot, and you've put all your time and energy into it, and you think it's the most important thing in the world. How you deal with winning or losing in that situation is going to tell you a lot about who you are."
Adkins has all the qualities Ambler talks about when he tries to sum up his presidents: devotion to community, intelligence and wit, maturity, the politician's ego. Put that together and you've got the consummate politician and the prototype student body president.
"He said, "This is the last time you'll get a free meal on David Adkins," Amber says, grinning broadly. "From now on, it'll all be $100-a-plate dinners."
Outside the system
It is clear that David Adkins will not leave the political arena any time soon. And he is clearly one of Ambler's favorite presidents. The administrator has stories about Adkins' courtship of Lisa Ashner and about Adkins' toast at their wedding.
Boog Highberger was never upset about seeing David and Lisa's photos in Ambler's office that day. He and Carla weren't expecting to get cozy with any administrators, anyway.
No wonder his picture was on Ambler's desk.
"I'd say student government was the best idea an administrator ever had because it gives students the illusion of
"I'd say student government was the best idea an administrator ever had because it gives students the illusion of power without giving them any actual power."

power without giving them any actual power," he says, leaning his thin. T-shirt clad torso over his wiry legs to obscure the hole just above the knee in his jeans. "I wouldn't argue that it was very useful for any of the students in the long term."
Highberger's experience in student government did not leave him disillusioned with politics — he never cared much for the system. That's why he and his running mate, Carla Vogel, called their coalition the Costume Party, and it's why they ran as a team and shared the president's office and salary even though she was the one elected president.
Actually, Highberger was the original presidential candidate. The Costume Party formed in Fall 1983 and, with Highberger at the top of the ticket, lost the election that November to greek candidates. In January 1984, however, the election was invalidated because of grossly mismanaged voting procedures.
The administration set a new election for March. Boog and Carla switched positions, and he ran for vice president to show that they considered themselves equals and that they would run student government as partners.
The Costume Party's anarchist partnership was swept into office in an election where only 10 percent of students bothered to vote. That's less than the paltry 15 percent who turn out for most senate elections, which may explain why the Costume Party stands out on the list of student presidents like hippies at a country-club cocktail party.
Highberger admits that he and Vogel didn't succeed in changing the system much. To his mind, their greatest contribution may have been the injection of humor into the system from the top down.
Highberger once went to a finance committee meeting dressed as Jesus Christ—and managed to get everything he asked. He instituted a tradition by which senators who wanted to speak during policy discussions raised their hand and gave the thumbs up or thumbs down sign to indicate whether they would speak for or against legislation on the floor.
"It's hard to construct anything lasting in student government because it changes every year and because you only have power within the parameters set by administration," he says. "That's why students don't care. People pay attention to important things that happen in their life, and students realize that Student Senate isn't going to do anything that really affects them, so they ignore it."
Highberger says he is no longer an anarchist, although he still believes in devolving power from the government to the individual. He has stayed away from politics because he doesn't think the changes he'd like to see can be made within the system.
He isn't the only former student body president who has kept out of politics — in fact, the presidents from the last 20 years are more likely to be in the private world from day to day, occasionally dabbling in public service.
After leaving the University, she went to law school at Northwestern and then to work at a big Kansas City firm, Morrison & Hecker. In 1993, she left took a job in New York City with the Federal Securities and Exchange Commission. Now she's trying cases for Citibank, which recently became one of the world's biggest financial corporations.
As a trial lawyer, Tasheff knows it is her job to place all professional courtesies and procedural niceties aside, walk into a courtroom and stick it to her adversary — something she had a little practice with as president.
Putting experience to work
You might say that Tedde Tashef began her climb up the corporate legal ladder at the University of Kansas, where in 1976-77 she was the first woman student body president since 1946, when the men came back from the war.
Tasheff says she didn't face any difficulties particular to her sex as a candidate or as student body president. She speaks of
"I do think you've got to choose your battles, and that's a concept I associate with my experience in student government," she says. "If it looks like you're always in battle mode, you're easily dismissed because the people you're trying to influence just see you as the person who will argue about everything."
battles and victories on behalf of the student body and of the idyllic world of student politics — free from corruption and constant campaigning. But she does not feel that her gender was much of a factor, even if she was the first woman president in 30 years.
"I remember the first Kansan article after it took office," she says. "It was about the flowers on my desk, trying to emphasize the novelty of having a woman in there. So there were some perception issues, but, in terms of getting things done, it wasn't a factor."
She has not had a job in politics since she was student body president, but it's mostly because she's been too busy practicing law to worry about running for office.
While Tedde Tasheff is focused on litigation and climbing the corporate ladder in New York, B. Jake White is 3,000 miles away, waiting for a rocket ride to fame.
After graduating from the University, Jake White accepted a job with the "Sharper Image" catalog in California. The job wasn't what he expected, and just to keep from getting bored he began taking acting classes at night.
Then, in a Sausalito restaurant in 1994, White met movie star Matt Dillon. They struck up a conversation that ended with Dillon giving White the names of casting contacts for the film "Golden Gate," which Dillon was filming in the area. After two days of incessant phone work, White landed a part as an extra. Once on the set, he worked his way up to a speaking part in the movie.
"And I thought, 'this is the way I want to spend my working days,'" he says from his home in Beverly Hills. "You're creating, and they're paying you to do it."
That small part got White a trip to the Sundance Film Festival and a membership in the Screen Actors Guild. It wasn't easy from there. He spent several years waiting tables, which almost caused him to blow town. But he stayed, and now he's started his own business, a marketing consulting gig that helps pay the bills and gives him the freedom to chase his big-screen dreams.
Running after that fast-moving Hollywood train seems like a long way away from running up the hill from the Sigma Chi house to a tiny office in the Kansas Union.
But just because B. Jake White isn't running for office and dreaming of being governor doesn't mean he's not using his experience as student body president.
Once he understood, White explains, the student body president's job was to take that understanding to administrators, the Board of Regents and the Legislature. He had to convince them that he knew the student body and that he understood what the students needed and why. And that, White said, is almost exactly what an actor does.
As student body president, White spent plenty of time listening to students from backgrounds that were nothing like what he'd seen in the frat house or growing up in western Nebraska. He had to learn to listen and to understand and to try to imagine what it was like for foreign students and minority students and non-traditional students at a big state university.
"An actor's job is to make a person real, and to do that you have to understand that character's life," he says. "You have to know their background and what concerns them in the present and what they want in life — all the things that motivate a character to do what he's doing. If you can do that, the audience will identify with the character, and that's when you've succeeded as an actor."

occasionally, and Tedde Tasheff and David Adkins. He doesn't hear much from Boog Highberger, and he isn't even sure where Carla Vogel is these days, but it's not because he doesn't care. He says he's loved all these folks, and he should know: He's worked with each one every day for a year.
He knows that hardly any students vote in the elections, and it burns him because it's an insult to his kids.
"At the University of Kansas, we have a lot better student government than our students deserve," he says, with a hint of defiance.
He has a hard time generalizing about the group. To Ambler, his kids are all individuals. It doesn't surprise David Ambler that most of the student body presidents are successful and prominent today. And he's proud of it. After all, they are his kids.

Super Target Field's soggy saga
Heavy rains force soccer tournament's change of location
By Brad Hallier
Kansan sportswriter

Last weekend was supposed to be big for the Kansas women's soccer team
The Jayhawks held the inaugural Kansas Tournament, and the four-team, fourgame tournament was to take place
Soccer
at Kansas' home field, Super Target Field
The tournament was played, but not at the Jayhawks' regular field.
Hours before the tournament's first game between Western Illinois and Drury College at 2 p.m. Friday, Super Target Field was deemed unplayable because of the rain during the week.
Super Target Field has a clay-based soil, meaning that it will remain soaked following rain. Amy Perko, associate athletics director, said the field's soil does not drain properly.

"It was unfortunate that we couldn't play at home," Perko said. "As an administrator, I was embarrassed. Our women deserve a home field for their own tournament."

"Obviously, the last thing you want is injuries. The officials and ourselves decide if the fields are safe to play on."
The Shawne Mission Complex, Olathe District Activities Center and Blue Valley District Activities Center in Johnson County were called,
but all were booked for the weekend, Kansas coach Dan Magner said.
Perry-Lecompton High School finally allowed the Jayhawks to stage Friday's matches at their field.
"Perry-Lecompton was extremely supportive." Magner said. "They were very helpful on such short notice."
Had an alternate site not been found, Magner said it would have been possible, if unlikely, that his team would have had to forfeit their games.
"The prospects of forfeiting was slim," he said. "We made the right choice to change the venue. The other teams were cooperative, and we appreciated that. They understood that you can't control the weather."
Magner said that he and Perko are working with the three Johnson County venues to arrange for a backup site.
Perko said the athletic department is continuing to discuss the soccer field's problems.
"It's been in a master planning process," she said. "Ultimately, any solution with the soccer field is going to require a lot of money. We would need new soil and drainage. It's an issue of money at this point."
Top hitter for volleyball works hard
Twin joins sister at University also plays on basketball team

The first sport Amanda Reves played wasn't volleyball. It was soccer.

In fact, she didn't even start playing volleyball until she was a freshman in high school.
Reves, a junior, has been named to seven All-Tournament teams in the last two years. She was named Big 12 Conference Player of the Week after their first tournament in 1998, and she leads the Javahaws with 172 kills and 65 blocks.
The Denver native came to Kansas because she wanted to go to college out of state. She tried out for the volleyball team and received a scholarship her freshman year.
Only one thing was missing: her twin sister, Brooke.
"Our coaches knew the best way to get us to go or hard as we could was to match us up against each other," Amanda said. "There were definitely days when we were walking a tight rope of competition, but once we stepped off the court, we were always close."
The sisters grew up competing with each other. They played the same sports, and competitions kept them motivated.
But after high school, Brooke took a basketball scholarship to Wichita State University, and the twins were separated for the first time.
"We were all right apart, but I was really happy when she decided to transfer." Amanda said.
Brooke, who was encouraged as a high school senior to walk on the Kansas basketball team, realized she didn't belong in Wichita and relocated to Lawrence last year.
"Wichita State wasn't the right place for me," Brooke said. "The team wasn't committed, and the school wasn't what I thought. I knew I still had the opportunity to play at Kansas, and I was excited to be with my sister again."
Amanda said her sister was her greatest athletic influence and her arrival at Kansas was exciting.
Brooke said the sisters attend each other's games and are proud of each other's accomplishments.
"She's always there to shoot hoops with or to offer me advice after games, like what went wrong or what I should focus on." Amanda said.
"I'm Amanda's biggest fan." Brooke said.
But Amanda said that the record isn't enough. She said the Jayhawks have higher aspirations, including a trip to the NCAA Tournament this year.
Amanda is leading the volleyball team to its best record in three years. The Jayhawks are 10-3 and are playing better than they were at their peak last year.
Brooke and the women's basketball team is coming off a 23-9 season, topped by a Sweet 16 appear ance.
"We've raised our expectations since the beginning of the year," Amanda said. "Being 10-3 is great, but I think we definitely could be 13-0."
Coach Ray Bechard said that Amanda is an exciting player who has been the one to step up and make the big play more than once.
"She's one of those kids who shows up and works hard every day," Bechard said. "She has some God-given athleticism and natural ability, but her own training has made her an explosive player for us."
Amanda said it wasn't always that way.
"When I first got here, I was way behind," Amanda said. "I just had this base of athleticism, and when you're in an environment where everyone is better, you have to tuck your pride away and work harder."
"I tell my players that the ball is the best teacher," Bechard said. "I've seen dramatic improvement in Amanda, and I believe she won't top out here.
Bechard said her work ethic has paid off.
There are opportunities to keep playing after college, and if Amanda continues to improve the detailed, technical side, she definitely could do that."
Right now Amanda is focusing on this season. "Personally, I want to be a driving force in hitting and blocking," Amanda said. "As a team, we want to make it to the tournament and to go as far as we possibly can."
Commitments not set in stone until November
By Erin Thompson
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas basketball team has already received verbal commitments from two star recruits.
The significance of oral commitments and the degree of commitment they actually represent is debatable.
But last season the Jayhawks received an oral commitment from top recruit Jori Rush. Rush is now at UCLA.
Last December after giving his oral commitment to Kansas, Rush said it would probably take an act of God to keep him from becoming a Jayhawk.
Three months later on Feb. 10, Rush, then a senior at Pembroke Hill High School in Kansas City, Mo., told a reporter that Kansas head coach Roy Williams substituted too much for him.
"But I still might go there," Rush said. "I don't know what I'm going to do."
Two days later at a press conference, Williams said that Rush would never play for him.
"I've heard it takes an act of God to change something," Williams said at the news conference. "This is a lot stronger than that."
KU
So how committed are this
Greg Swain, recruiting analyst at Midwest Basketball,
said that the commitments Kansas has received from Collison and Gooden are strong and there is no question that those players will play at Kansas.
So how committed are these year's commitments from forwards Andrew Gooden, El Cerrito (Cal.) High School, and Nick Collison, Iowa Falls (iowa) High School? And how binding is a verbal contract that still allows recruits to speak with and visit other schools?
"Oral commitments are not at all legally binding," Swaim said. "Just because a kid has committed does not keep any other coaches from calling them. Especially if they're good players like Gooden and Collison. I'm sure they're still getting calls from other coaches. But I do consider Collison and Gooden very, very strong commitments."
Recruits can give verbal commitments at any time before the early signing period in November. But in the aftermath of last year's Rush catastrophe, it is hard to know when a player has actually committed to a school.
Swaim said 95 percent of the players who gave commitments ended up at the schools they said they would play for.
"I don't consider a commitment a commitment until a player says he's not visiting any other schools." Swaim said. "I can't tell my wife, 'I love you but I'm going out with another woman tonight.' I'd probably get smacked over the head."
Roughly half of the country's top 100 players have already committed to schools, including Collison and Gooden. Top 15 player Casey Sanders has committed to Duke. And Kentucky has received commitments from 6-foot-4 Keith Bogans, 6-foot-10 Marvin Stone, and 7-foot John Stewart, all of whom are considered in the top 15 by most recruiting analysts as well.
The increase in high school players giving early commitments is due to many things, including the recent addition of the early signing period and the hope of having a seminormal senior year of high school.
"Coaches want to get it wrapped up before the season starts," Swaim said. "Players want to get it out of the way before season starts. Kids are getting 50 phone calls a night. It's messing with their academics, it's messing with their basketball."
Williams could wrap up his recruiting this weekend if he receives a verbal commitment from Kirk Hinrich of Sioux City, Iowa. Hinrich will visit Lawrence this weekend, and the Jayhawks hope to fill their final available scholarship with him.

Nevada boxing officials delay Tyson's hearing
LAS VEGAS — Mike Tyson's relicensing hearing has been delayed because he missed a deadline for submitting psychological reports to Nevada boxing authorities.
The hearing had been scheduled for Saturday, but no new date has been set.
The former heavyweight champion's advisers said the tests at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston took too long, and doctors were unable to get the reports together in time for the commission's 5-p.m. deadline yesterday.
Ronald Schouten, the physician in charge of the team that examined Tyson, sent a letter to commission chairman Elias Ghanem, saying the reports would be completed today.
"Unfortunately, due to the length of the evaluation process, the scoring on the psychological and neuropsychological testing have not been completed." "Schouten wrote."
Ghanem said he was disappointed the reports were not ready. The commission is to determine whether Tyson could regain the boxing license stripped from him for biting Evander Hovfield's ears.
"It takes time to write this up," Wald said. "We don't dictate to the doctors. They did an incredibly thorough job, and out of fairness, I don't know why this would be held against us since we can't control it."
Tyson's testing took longer than expected, adviser Jeff Wald said. Tyson began undergoing examination last Wednesday, and it was completed Sunday.
"I don't know what is going on, but it is very disappointing," Ghanem said.
BASEBALL
Race for home runs barely raises average
NEW YORK — Despite the record-topping performances of Mark McGwire and Sammy Sosa, home runs were up only slightly this year.
There were 5,064 home runs in 2,430 major league games this season, an average of 2.08 per game.
Even though it was an expansion year, home runs were up only 1.5 percent from the average of 2.05 homers per game in 1997.
4. 962 homers were hit.
Baseball's record average of 2.19 home runs was set in 1969, when
The NL batting average dropped one point this year to .262 and the AL remained at .271. The NL ERA rose to 4.23 from 4.20 and the AL ERA rose from 4.56 to 4.65.
The Associated Press
Attendance averaged 29,376 fans,
a 3.8 percent rise from last year's
average of 28,228, and 16.3 percent
above the 1995 average of 25,260.
Attendance was 7 percent below the
pre-strike average of 31,612 in 1994.

Elway considers buying part of Denver Broncos
DENVER — Even after retirement, John Elway could play a big role for the Denver Broncos.
Elway, in his 16th season, said yesterday that he would be interested in buying a stake in the team.
“it’s something I’d like to do just to be involved in football still.” Elway told
CHEVROLET
the Rocky Mountain News. "If it's the Broncos
just to stay involved."
— or another opportunity arose — sure, I'd be interested in that
ronicos owner Pat Bowlen said he would welcome having Eway as a partner, but that it won't be talked about until his career is finished.
Elway contemplated retirement before returning for the 1998 season, and has said he is not going to be back for 1999.
Elway has plenty of options if he wants to follow through on a deal with Bowlen. The Broncos owe him millions of dollars in deferred salary because he has restructured his contract several times to make room under the salary cap.
He also made a profit last year when he and partner Rod Buscher sold their six auto dealerships to Republic Industries for $82.5 million.

Fenway holds shrine status
Old baseball stadiums must be preserved
I considered my trip to Fenway Park nothing short of a pilgrimage to a national shrine.
From the moment my pop called earlier this summer and demanded we go to a game, it was a done deal.
And so last Sunday, there we were in Boston, witnessing the Red Sox's last game of the season at Fenway Park.
Mo Vaughn trailed Bernie Williams by only a fraction of a percentage point for the American League batting title, the Red Sox had clinched the wild card spot and a World Series drought, that has existed since 1918, could be broken this fall.
Our outfield grandstand seats were wooden slats heavily coated with navy blue paint and highlighted by red metal arm rests. Vendors furiously hawked cracker jacks, hot dogs, popcorn and Italian ice — even to the cheapest seats — through most of the game.
1:05 p.m. arrived and the public address announcer's words enveloped the park in the spirit of the game: "Ladies and Gentleman, Boys and Girls, welcome to Friendly Fenway Park!"
The deceptively narrow foul lines height
ened the sense of this intimate ballpark.
The subway system in Boston is a scrunched-up affair, with the walls of buildings and houses right next to the train tracks.
Fenway has been arbitrarily forced
between the confines of city buildings in much the same fashion, mandating the necessity of a 33-foot tall wall, the "Green Monster," in left field.
Fenway, built in 1912, abounds with endearing cryptic minutia only a true baseball fan could love
---
Chip Dewell
A sole seat painted red in a sea of monochrome blue bleachers is a tribute to the farthest homer ever clubbed by Ted Williams at Fenwav.
At the base of the Green Monster in left field is the manual scoreboard showing the game's line score and other league scores.
Barely noticeable, between some of the vertical lines that shape this box, are the names of two former ball club owners. Mr. and Mrs. Yawkey. They are written in Morse code.
The retired numbers on the awning in right field shouldn't cause a great deal of controversy, but this year, they were shuffled. Initially, the retired numbers at Fenway were placed in this order: 9, 4.1 and 8.
It just so happens that Sept. 4, 1918, was the exact date the Boston Red Sox last won the World Series. To break the long-standing World Series drought, this season numbers were shifted into semi-sequential order; 1, 4, 9 and 8.
There are plans to tear Fenway down and build a new stadium. After seeing this intimate, venerable ballpark, I think it would be nothing short of a national tragedy.
The National Park Service in recent years has poured voluminous amounts of money into restoring Mount Rushmore and the Statue of Liberty.
Although baseball is a business, it could follow the same lead in preserving an acknowledged landmark.
New ballparks such as Camden Yards and Jacobs Field are nice, but they are mere plastic monopoly pieces compared to a Fenway or Wrigley.
Baseball fans should demand that at least a couple of original ballparks be maintained.

NCAA may be sued for sexual bias
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court agreed yesterday to decide whether the National Collegiate Athletic Association can be sued under a federal law banning sexual discrimination by any program or activity receiving federal financial aid.
The justices said they will review a ruling that, if upheld, would force the NCAA to defend itself against the sexual-bias accusations of a woman declared ineligible for intercollegiate volleyball.
Renee Smith says the NCAA discriminates in the way it enforces its eligibility rules.
Smith, who now lives in Wintersville, Ohio, played volleyball for St. Bonaventure University in the 1911-92 and 1992-93 seasons. She chose not to participate the following season, and graduated in less than three years.
Smith later pursued graduate degrees at Hofstra University and the University
of Pittsburgh. At each, her attempts to play intercollegiate volleyball were thwarted by an NCAA rule that bars graduate students from competing in intercollegiate athletics at a school other
than the one from which they earned their undergraduate degree.
Smith sued in 1996, contending that the NCAA discriminated against women by granting
NCAA
to male student athletes a disproportionate number of waivers from that eligibility rule.
Smiths' lawsuit invoked federal antitrust laws and the anti-bias law known as Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972.
A federal judge threw out Smith's lawsuit but the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of
Appeals reinstated her Title IX claim last March.
The appeals court ruled that the NCAA could be covered by the law because it indirectly receives federal financial aid through the dues it collects from its 1,200 member schools, virtually all of which are federally subsidized.
"The NCAA is not merely an incidental beneficiary of federal funds," the appeals court said in sending Smith's case back to a federal trial court.
In the appeal acted on yesterday, lawyers for the NCAA argued that the March ruling conflicts with a 1986 Supreme Court decision that said airlines cannot be penalized for discriminating against disabled air travelers because the anti-bias law at issue was aimed at the airports receiving federal aid.
The appeal also contended that other federal appeals courts have interpreted Title IX more narrowly.
The case is NCAA vs. Smith, 98-84.

Truman State rugby team squashes 'Hawks in shutout
SPORTS BRIEFS AND SCORES
Dusty Slater, Wichita senior and club member, said he thought the Jayhawks played well against the Bulls, the defending national runners-up.
"We stayed aggressive in there even though we were losing, which is a good sign," Slater said. "Still, this was an important game for us."
Kansas will play at least two games this weekend in the Heart Of America Tournament in Kansas City, Kan. Ryan Killany, Kansas City, Kan., senior and acting captain, said the team was looking forward to the event.
"After three straight weekends in Missouri, it will be nice to not have to drive hours for a game," Kilany said.
The Jayhawks play their first home game of the season Oct. 10.
Basketball alumnus takes Stony Brook coaching job
A former University of Kansas basketball player has entered the coaching ranks.
Stony Brook University hired former Jayhawk Paul Mokeski as assistant men's basketball coach.
A 1979 graduate, Mokeski racked up 945 points, 680 rebounds and 136 blocked shots in his four-year-career. Mokeski's numbers rank him the 10th-ranked all-time rebounder and No. 8 in blocked shots.
Mokesi played in the NBA from 1980 to 1991 and totaled 2,764 points, 2,342 rebounds, 500 assists and 307 blocked shots. Since retiring.
Mokeski has been the head coach of two professional teams: the Connecticut Skyhawks in the United States Basketball League in 1996 and the Continental Basketball Association's Hartford Hellcats from 1993 to 1995. He was also an assistant coach with the Quad City Thunder during the 1992-93 season.
Stony Brook head coach Bernard Tomlin said Mokeski would be a good addition to the Seawolves staff.
"His basketball knowledge and coaching will undoubtedly help us build
a successful program," Tomlin said.

Williams pleads not guilty in lewd behavior case
HUTCHINSON — Former University of
Kansas basketball player B.J. Williams
A. Mwangi
Williams: Played KU basketball from 1994 to 1997.
pleaded not guilty to four counts of lewd and lascivious behavior for allegedly exposing himself to his neighbors. No trial date has been set in the case, authorities said. Two of the counts against Williams, 23, are felonies because of the age of the alleged victims. Williams played for the Jawhays from
1994 to 1997 when the team accumulated the best four-year winning percentage in 60 years at the University.
He graduated in May with a degree in sociology and moved to Hutchinson with his wife and two children. He was arrested in August for the alleged incidents.
Williams is accused of exposing himself to people who would walk by the picture window of his apartment. The charges say he would flick the lights to get people to look and then drop a towel he had around his waist.
Williams remains free on bond.
Senior basketball player commits to Kansas State
MANHATTAN, Kan. — Donnie Wallace, a Goddard standout who last year averaged 20.5 points and nearly nine rebounds a
C
game, has verbally committed to play at Kansas State. Wallace, a 6-foot-9 inch forward who is generally regarded as the best senior
player in Kansas, is the first to indicate he will sign with the Wildcats this year. Oral commitments are non-binding. The early signing period is from Nov. 11 to 18.
Kansas State has five seniors on scholarship this year. They are forward-center Shawn Rhodes, center Manny Dies, guard Chris Griffin, guard-forward Ayone May and forward Ty Sims. The Wildcats will have at least five scholarships available for next year.

National soccer team looks home
Commentary
Following the relative failure of the American team at the World Cup, coach Steve Sampson took the fall.
Despite possessing the best record and most accomplishments of any U.S. national team coach to date, he did the right thing and resigned shortly after the World Cup ended.
In the aftermath of his decision, the inevitable debate concerning his replacement followed.
The leading candidates were all foreign names. Among them was Carlos Queiroz, a former coach of Sporting Lisbon (Portugal), who finished a six-month stay in the United States reporting for the Federation on the state of player development in the United States.
Although he had been a failure as the coach of the MLS MetroStars, Carlos Alberto Parreira, who coached Brazil to the 1994 World Championship, was another big name that surfaced.
Other intriguing names were Dutch great Johan Cruyff and, strangely, former National Team coach Bora Milutinovic, who guided the American team to the second round of the 1994 World Cup.
lone American candidate: Bruce Arena, former coach of the U.S. Olympic Team and current coach of two-time M.L.sChamps D.C. United.
In the background, there was one
Arena was a longshot — not far
enough removed from the college game and not experienced enough at the international level, according to the conventional w i s d o m espoused at the time.
PETER BAYLEY
Two months later, it appears that Arena will
be announced as the coach as soon as D.C. United's season concludes.
Sam Pierron
Several of the candidates had obvious faults. Parreira's record was spotty. The only team with which he had managed to win consistently was the Brazilian national team—hardly a feat for the ages.
Cruyff didn't appear to be interested in the job.
rne hiring of Milutinovie would have been seen as something of a step
back, both in time line and in style. The American team played a much more attractive, attacking game under Sampson than it had under Milutinovic, whose U.S. teams played solely for the counterattack.
Queiroz seemed to be the ideal candidate. He is equipped to guide U.S. Soccer's player-development programs, having done the same in Portugal during the late 1980s and early 1990s.
He has extensive knowledge of the U.S. game, having coached the MetroStars for half of the 1996 season in addition to writing the aforementioned report. Before U.S. Soccer could offer him the job, he received an offer from the United Arab Emirates.
One can only assume that the sum was extraordinary, given the small nation's oil wealth.
Bruce Arena was left standing, still winning game after game for D.C. United, the best soccer franchise this nation has seen since the New York Cosmos' heyday in the late '70s and early '80s.
While Arena has limited international experience, he took a U.S. Olympic team that had performed disastrously in its warm-up matches and
reshaped them in his image, guiding them to a strong performance in the 1996 Games. One can only assume that, given four years, he can do the same and more for the senior squad.
One challenge for Arena will be finding that player. Marco Ect维erry does it to perfection for D.C. United, but he is Bolivian and won't be performing for Arena with the American team.
Claudio Reyna threatens to be that player from time to time, but his World Cup performance in a similar role was weak, and his form for the club team in Germany (VFL Wollstaff) has been poor this season.
Arena will also have to learn to do something that Steve Sampson did to perfection; interact with the Spanish-language media. Sampson — and Milutinovic before him — broke down years of resentment by being fluent, even eloquent, in Spanish.
In the final analysis, Arena will prove that America doesn't need foreign coaches to succeed. Foreign development systems, perhaps, but not foreign coaches.
Pierron is an Olathe senior in political science.

Cowboys hope to rope Cornhuskers in rematch
The Associated Press
STILLWATER, Okla. — Bob Simmons' first game as a coach came against No. 2 Nebraska in 1995. Playing in Stillwater, on national television, the Cowboys were hammered 64-21.
Simmons said his program had improved since then.
"We played them with, I think. 18 freshmen," Simmons said. "A lot of those kids are still here.
"We've improved as a program over those last three years to become a more competitive program, where we feel like we're able to compete. ... I think we've got more athletes than we did back then. We've got older kids. We have come a long way since that ball game."
Just how far the Cowboys have come, and need to go, may be spelled out Saturday night when they play No.2 Nebraska at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Mo.
The game was supposed to be played in Stillwater. Simmons, after meeting with athletics director Terry Don Phillips, agreed to move the game because of what the $1.3 million payday meant for the
athletic department.
"Football is your biggest income, and the financial package of that game would indeed help the overall athletic program," Simmons said.
oSu
He said that even though Arrowhead standout was 4 1/2 hours away,
he wanted to give the fans the festive

mood and atmosphere playing there would give.
It hasn't really mattered where this game has been played. Oklahoma State won the first two meetings, in 1960 and 1961, but Nebraska has won 33 of the 34 since then. The teams tied in 1973.
It is that game he and his staff will try to build on as they prepare this week. Simmons said.
The Cowboys (2-1) enter the game after not playing last weekend. In their last game, they beat Mississippi State 42-23 and had more than 500 yards of offense.
yourself." Simmons said. "If we play the way we played last week, then we'll have an opportunity."
"What you do is respect the fact that they're a good program and a good football team, but you go in there in the game believing in
Nebraska (4-0) is coming off its most impressive victory of the season, 55-7 against the No.9 Washington.
The Cornhuskers have won 18 straight games, the longest streak in the country, and they got a boost Saturday when DeAngelo Evans returned to the lineup for the first time since December 1996. Evans carried 13 times for 146 yards and three touchdowns. Nebraska ran for 434 yards in the game.
Simmons points out that Washington put almost no emphasis on a running game, while Oklahoma State tries to balance the run and the pass. The Cowboys did that very effectively against Mississippi State.
The defense was equally impressive, forcing six turnovers and forcing quarterback Brock Huard to run for his life most of the afternoon.
"Will we be good enough? I think our team feels pretty good about its chances," Simmons said. "Now we've got to go out and play and see if we are."
COLUMBIA, Mo. — Tight end Eddie Brooks, apparently upset at Missouri's reliance on rushing an aerial attack, has been suspended after he walked out of a team meeting.
"Eddie's been suspended from the team," coach Larry Smith said yesterday. "He'll miss this game for violation of team policy and regulations."
Uncertain suspension for Missouri tight end
The length of the suspension was not certain, but Brooks at least will
miss saturday day's game against Northwestern (La.) State.

start, is now listed as the team's No. 1 tight end, with redshirt freshman Dwayne Blakely at No. 2.
Brooks had a team-high 24 receptions last year, for 311 yards and four touchdowns. This season, he caught one pass for 15 yards in the opener against Bowling Green, none against Kansas and one for seven yards against Ohio State.

Quarterback's injuries frustrate Colorado

news media luncheon.
CU
Moschetti played in every game during his high school
football career at La Mirada, Calif., and sat out one junior-college football game at Mount San Antonio (Calif.) College. He wasn't injury prone during his three years of minor league baseball, either.
Since joining the Buffaloes, however, Moschetti has been dogged by ailments, ranging from a virus to a dislocated left shoulder, which required surgery earlier this year.
During the second week of the season. Moschetti tore cartilage in his rib cage and missed the last two series of the Buffaloales '29-21 victory against Fresno State.
On Saturday, Moschetti sprained his right ankle in the third quarter and sat out the rest of the game, watching as Colorado defeated Baylor 18-16.
Moschetti is just as weary of the injuries as Neuheisel. "I'm sick of injuries and talking about them," he said recently. "Maybe I'm getting them all out of the way."

Steelers want Kordell Stewart to regain old 'slashing' style
PITTSBURGH — Really, Kordell Stewart can still go deep. Turn on a TV for 10 minutes, and it's hard to miss him zinging passes in one of his numerous commercials.
The Associated Press
But on the field, it's much different. The season is one-quarter finished, and the Pittsburgh Steelers have glimpsed only flashes of the Kordell Stewart of 1997 — the quarterback equally adept at throwing or running 80 yards for a touchdown.
In their last two games, Sunday's 13-10 win against Seattle and a 21-0 loss to Miami, Stewart has thrown more touchdown passes to opposing defensive backs — one — than to his receivers — none. His 60 passes produced only 190 vards.
The Steelers have tried to help him regain his nickname, Slash, by having him run 11 times Sunday. His 10-yard run set up their only touchdown, by rookie running back Chris Fumatu Ma'afala.
So far, the same player who twice threw for three touchdowns and ran for two others in a game last
season is 58-of-117 for 500 yards, two touchdowns and six interceptions. As a runner, he has 22 carries for 64 yards and a touchdown. He has been sacked eight times.
They include the transition in offensive coordinators from Chan Gailey to Ray Sherman, the loss of star receiver Yancey Thigpen and an emphasis on shorter, more precise passing. An ever-changing offensive line infrequently gives him time to throw. And some question if Stewart lost confidence by throwing three interceptions in the AFC championship game.
The theories vary for Kordell's crash.
"I went up to him (coach Bill Cowher)—actually, he came at me first—and he said, 'Good job, but we still have some work to be done.' Stewart said. "We're 3-1, regardless of how bad the first three weeks were, and now we've got a bwe week to get things worked off."
As upbeat as he is, Stewart realizes the Steelers cannot hope to keep winning if he's only a facsimile version of his former's form.
"I don't have to'have a 200-or 300
yard passing game," Stewart said.
"And even if I get only two or three yards on a run, the defense still has to watch out for it and be alert to it."
But what about getting only two or three yards per pass? Doesn't that encourage defenses to play the
Steelers' receivers man-
to-man, freeing
extra defenders to rush Stewart
or stack the line of scrimimage

TELEGRAPHY
against Jerome Bettis' running?
"When you utilize the talent I have, the offense has and Jerome has, it gives us the opportunity to get out there and make some things happen," Stewart said. "When Jerome is pounding the ball and pounding the ball, the defense can get so caught up in the pounding and ... it opens up things down the field."
But when will the Steelers open up their offense? When will they let Stewart be Slash again?
"There's more to come," Stewart said.
Jordan testifies in movie lawsuit
The Associated Press
CHICAGO — For days, Michael Jordan sat quietly at the defense table while lawyers did the talking in a multimillion-dollar lawsuit alleging he broke a promise to star in "Heaven is a Playground," a film that flopped without him.
The Chicago Bulls star assumed his accustomed starring role yesterday, loping across a downtown courtroom and settling his towering frame into the witness box as he testified that he never refused to act in the 1991 film.
"I maintained enthusiasm about the project. I wanted to participate," Jordan said, even when filming was postponed several times while the producers sought financing.
Jordan said he even agreed to return the $50,000 producers paid him up front and offered his signature to help draw prospective backers when financing hit a snag.
mately was made with former Loyola Marymount star B Kimble in the role Jordan was to have played. It made just $168,000 at the box office, its
producers allege, and never got national distribution.
PETER MILTON
The producers are seeking between $16 million and $20 million in damages, or what they believe could have been the film's profit.
The movie, filmed in Chicago, ulti-
Jordan: Says he was enthusiastic about production
Jordan was called by the
plaintiffs as a hostile witness, and much of his nearly four-hour testimony involved dry minutiae about contractual obligations. But he provided comic relief as the plaintiffs showed scenes from a video featuring
film clips of Jordan's soaring basket- ball feats.
Jordan bit his lip and smiled uncomfortably as the video announcer called him "this offensive juggernaut" and "the greatest scorer since Wilt Chamberlain."
When attorney Dean Dickie asked whether Jordan, "as the greatest basketball player ever," had considered how successful "Heaven is a Playground" would have been with him in it, Jordan demurred.
"I guess I shouldn't assume that I'm the greatest basketball player," Jordan said humly, prompting smiles from jurors and audience members in the packed courtroom. "I try to be the best I can be."
Kansan Classified
Y
Jordan appeared testy just once, when Dickie repeatedly tried to show that Jordan had broken his agreement.
"At no time did I refuse" to act in the film, Jordan said later under questioning from his attorney, Fred Sperling.

balances, auto loans or mortgages. Joe Oberzan, vice president and branch manager of Capitol Federal Savings, 1025 Iowa St., said his bank would have to see how other financial institutions reacted to the interest rate change before making any decisions.
"We would probably take a look at what Greenspan has done and wait and see who takes the first step." he said.
Oberzaan said that if banks were to drop their interest rates on mortgages, they would be more affordable.
He said that lower interest rates did
not favor savings account holders.
"For borrowers, it could be good because they could have a little more discretionary money to spend at the end of each month," Oberzan said. "If they're on the savings side, it may be a little bit tougher on their savings account."
"In terms of students, they should have a special fixed rate," he said.
Brendon Allen, Phoenix, Ariz., junior, said that because students were targeted by credit card marketing, they should reap the benefits of lower interest rates.
The Fed's interest rate cut did not take Mark Hersey, graduate
research assistant of finance, by surprise.
Hersey said that interest rates were lowered by the Federal Reserve in reaction to falling world markets.
Hersey said that interest rates across the globe had fallen.
"I don't think Greenspan set the interest rate," he said.
He said that the interest rate in Japan was between one-half and three-quarters of 1 percent, which is extremely low.
Hersey said that the cut was only a modest change.
"It's a short-term attempt to bolster the economic situation," he said.
Fed lowers interest rate .25 percent
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The Federal Reserve moved to inoculate the U.S. economy against a spreading global crisis yesterday, cutting a key interest rate for the first time in nearly three years.
The quarter-point cut in the federal funds rate to 5.25 percent will mean slightly lower borrowing costs for millions of Americans on everything from auto loans to home equity lines of credit if commercial banks follow suit in coming days by lowering their benchmark prime lending rates as expected. The prime rate is currently at 8.5 percent.
The Dow Jones industrial average dropped 100 points after the
Fed's announcement, but it recovered all but 28 points by the end trading.
Private economists said yesterday's decision to lower the federal funds rate, which has been at 5.5 percent for 18 months, still represented a remarkable turnaround for Fed policy-makers, who as recently as July were leaning toward raising rates to fight inflation.
Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan first signaled the Fed's change of heart earlier this month when he warned that the United States was unlikely to remain an oasis of prosperity in the face of a currency crisis that began in Asia, then spread to Russia and is now threatening countries in Latin America.
The main impact on the United States has been to send the trade deficit to record levels. American exporters have lost valuable overseas markets, and Asian products, made cheaper by currency devaluations, have flooded this country.
But Russia's botched devaluation of its currency brought the crisis closer to home by disrupting a number of Latin American countries.
Greenspan indicated last week that the Fed stood ready to do its part to calm turbulent markets. U.S. companies depend on Latin American countries for many of their sales.
Lower U.S. interest rates help to
While a number of banks in Canada, a nation whose economy is closely tied to the United States, announced cuts in their prime lending rates immediately after the Fed's announcement, officials at major U.S. banks said they were still considering whether to lower their rates.
Private analysts said they expected U.S. banks would lower their prime rate within the next few days. Some suggested that the delay would last until tomorrow, the first day of October, so the banks would not have to pass on lower rates to consumers holding adjustable home equity loans for another month.
Grant could be delayed by Lewinsky situation
By Julie M. Sachs
Kansan staff writer
Monica Lewinsky may be having an adverse effect on research at the University of Kansas.
Stephen Schroeder, director of the Lifespan Institute, said that he believed the Lewinsky matter might be contributing to Congress's delay to pass the budget for 1999.
The delayed budget, Schroeder said, may halt the payment of
one of Liespan's federal grants
Schroeder was told yesterday that he might receive the funding next week. Although he was only waiting for one grant, Schroeder said that other grants possibly could be affected by the budget.

delayed funding.
The National Institute of Child Health and Human Development, a division of the National Institutes of Health, denied that any 1989 grant was unpaid.
But George Gaines, legislative officer at the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development, said 1999 awards might be held up.
Sen. Sam Brownback (R-Kans.) said that Congress was working hard to pass the budget.
"Sometimes the legislative process takes a long time to come together, and this year is no exception," Brownback said. "As the saying goes, 'There are two things you never want to actually see being made: sausage and legislation.' Too often that saying becomes a reality on Capitol Hill."
Brownback did not comment on whether the Clinton-Lewinsky situation.
Individuals at the National Institute of Health also said the presidential situation had nothing to do with the budget remaining in congressional limbo.
Mark Stern, news chief at the National Institute of Health, said that the passing of budget wasn't taking any longer than usual.
"It has nothing to do with anything going on in Congress," he said.
